In a rebuke to a 2011 Obama administration demand calling for
Arizona to repudiate the voter-approved protection of secret balloting
in union elections, U.S. District Court Judge Frederick Martone today
granted Summary Judgment in favor of the State’s position that the law
is constitutional, Attorney General Tom Horne announced.
“
This is a stinging rebuke to an outrageous National Labor
Relations Board attack made in 2011 when that panel tried to subvert the
sanctity of the secret ballot,” Horne said.

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER: I was stunned. This is a man who gave one of the
great speeches of our time in 2004, and he gave one of the emptiest
speeches I have ever heard on a national stage. Yes, it had cadence, and
yes, there were deceptions in it, but that is not what is so striking
about it. There was nothing in it. This is a man who believes that
government can and should do a lot. There is nothing in here that tells
us how he's going to go from today to tomorrow. For any of the so called
goals and what government is going to do, what is he going to enact?
At least Romney had a five point plan. What we heard from Obama was a
vision. And he pulls numbers out of a hat. 100,000 new math and science
teachers. 600,000 more people working in natural gas. Two million more
trainees, and he doesn't say how we get from A to B. It's a vision. I
have a vision of an America where there is no disease and everybody has a
private airplane, but unless I tell you how we get there, I’ve said
nothing. And what is so surprising, is that - all he had left - he can't
speak about his record on the economy, and it's not a good one. As we
heard, he didn't speak about achievements, the one that's liberals like,
ObamaCare, stimulus and etc… they're unpopular.

In another blow to the so-called fact-checking propaganda wing of the Democrat Party, the
Government Accountability Office
(GAO), said yesterday that the Obama regime must give Congress the
chance to block President Obama’s scheme that lets states change,
some say “gut,” the Clinton-era welfare to work rules Obama long opposed:
“In July, the Obama administration offered states more
latitude in how they can run cash-assistance programs that replaced the
welfare system after the 1996 overhaul passed by Congress and signed in
to law by President Bill Clinton. … ‘It must be submitted to Congress
and the comptroller general before taking effect,’ wrote Lynn H. Gibson,
GAO’s general counsel, in a letter to the lawmakers on Tuesday.” http://www.redstate.com/2012/09/05/gao-confirms-obama-changed-welfare-to-work-rules-in-another-extra-legal-power-grab/

This is exactly the same look you'd get from your friends
if you told them you plan to vote for Obama. [I only wish]

A Sunday New York Times front page story — New York Times! — might have killed President Obama’s re-election hopes.
The story is called “The Competitor in Chief — Obama Plays To Win, In
Politics and Everything Else” ... [and it] is devastating. ...
“I think that I’m a better speechwriter than my speechwriters,” Mr.
Obama told Patrick Gaspard, his political director, at the start of the
2008 campaign, according to The New Yorker. “I know more about policies
on any particular issue than my policy directors. And I’ll tell you
right now that I’m going to think I’m a better political director than
my political director.”

The book,
"The Price of Politics," on sale Sept. 11, 2012,
shows how close the president and the House speaker were to defying
Washington odds and establishing a spending framework that included both
new revenues and major changes to long-sacred entitlement programs.
But at a critical juncture, with an agreement tantalizingly close,
Obama
pressed Boehner for additional taxes as part of a final deal -- a
miscalculation, in retrospect, given how far the House speaker felt he'd
already gone.
The president called three times to speak with Boehner about his latest
offer, according to Woodward. But the speaker didn't return the
president's phone call for most of an agonizing day, in what Woodward
calls a "monumental communications lapse" between two of the most
powerful men in the country.

The Democratic Party’s symbolic dismissal of God with the removal and
forced return of His name to its platform by party officials amid boos
from delegates could be the turning point in the 2012 presidential
campaign said talk radio-host
Michael Savage.

And how about CLinton saying "President Obama’s approach embodies the values, the ideas, and the
direction America must take to build a 21st century version of the
American Dream in a nation of shared opportunities, shared prosperity
and shared responsibilities."

The Democratic National Committee banned dozens of Charlotte churches
from distributing gift baskets to delegates because the congregations
hold values that are contrary to the party platform, according to local
religious leaders.
“They told us our views on women’s rights are contrary to the
Democratic party platform,” said David Benham, the lead organizer of the
Charlotte714 religious movement.
Charlotte714 is a group of more than 100 churches across the region
that mobilized to pray for the Democratic National Convention. More than
9,000 people gathered last Sunday for a time of worship and prayer in
advance of the convention.-

The Venezuelan government has seized a U.S. flagged ship and detained its captain for more than a week. Yet after four hours in port, the ship was boarded and searched by armed
security personel, and the captain was detained on suspicion of
trafficking in arms or drugs.

The State Department today again refused to name the capital of Israel,
even after being questioned by the press and even after the Democratic
party (President Obama's party) voted yesterday to add language to its
platform stating that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel.-

A spokesman for the Secret Service said the agency is “aware” of the
video published by TheBlaze that featured a Democratic National
Convention
delegate saying she would like to “kill” Mitt Romney.
“We are aware of it and we will conduct the appropriate follow-up,”
Secret Service spokesman George Ogilvie told TheBlaze Thursday.
Ogilvie said he could not talk specifically about what kind of follow-up the agency was conducting.
In TheBlaze’s video, a woman who identified herself as New York
delegate Julia Rodriguez said Romney would “destroy this country” if
elected president.
“He will destroy this country completely, she said. “Romney will destroy his country…if I see him I would like to kill him.”

At the Democratic National Convention, where one speaker after the
next swears they love free enterprise, delegates and attendees (maybe
some media, who knows?) were asked by
Peter Schiff, posing as a anti-corporate activist, if they would support capping or banning corporate profit.
Well, there seems to be plenty of enthusiasm for the idea in
Charlotte this week — and not from the fringe. “We deliberately avoided
speaking with the occupy protestors camping outside in tents to get a
more “mainstream” Democratic perspective,” writes Schiff.
