The Syrian Deception – Look Over Here and Pay No Attention to the Lack of Jobs or the Scandals

Please ‘like’ From the Left to the Right’s Facebook Page

We found WMDs? Let’s react differently this time.

I admit that I supported the war in Iraq due to Saddam Hussein’s horrific use of chemical weapons against his own people. These were called, “weapons of mass destruction,” or WMD. Many on the left now ask, “Why not now?” Sometime around 2010 I realized that with the poor condition of the American economy, we could not afford another conflict. The vastly radicalized Middle East, public opinion, the lack of progress in Iraq - and the left - all convinced me that our best interest lay in staying out of it. Peace, man. Many said that the people in Iraq didn’t learn anything from our presence and insisted that we were not the world’s police force.

Axis of WMD. Can’t read it? Google ‘Axis of WMD’

Our Nobel Peace Prize winning president now wants to lob a few missiles Syria’s way because Bashar al-Assad used chemical weapons against his own people. The question I ask is, “Why now?” What caused the change of heart, and how is it even possible when the left protested so vehemently against “Bush’s War?” President Obama promises the strike will be small, swift, won’t bog us down for years in a new conflict (how do we know that?), but will teach Syria a lesson. What will Syrian President al-Assad learn that the radicals in Iraq didn’t?

Were you convinced that the U.S. should use military force against Syria?

”What kind of a world will we live in if the United States of America sees a dictator brazenly violate international law with poison gas, and we choose to look the other way?” No, that’s not President George W. Bush justifying the war in Iraq, it’s a quote from President Barack Obama’s Sep. 10, 2013 speech! President Obama addressed the nation and tried to convince us that his choice to strike Syria is the right one. In the next breath he urged Congress to delay voting their support for his decision. Isn’t this lack of direction (or is it misdirection?) stunning? President Kennedy (D-MA) once said that a few advisors in Vietnam would be all we’d need. President Johnson (D-TX) escalated that war (which, by the way, took a Republican president to end it). After so many said we would not get involved in global conflicts, how can we believe the current president?

Now and Later.

President Obama said a year ago that if Syrian’s president used chemical weapons against his own people it would cross “a red line.” He doesn’t want to appear weak by doing nothing, but I maintain that he does not wish to strike Syria at all. I think he wants to distract Americans from the poor economy (lack of jobs). He’d like you to not pay attention to the myriad of scandals - his administration’s failure to protect our people in Benghazi, the IRS’ targeting of conservatives, and the massive data collection – the ‘spying on Americans’ discussion.

It’s possible that al-Assad used WMD…

While the magician waves one hand, you don’t notice that something else is happening in the other. So, take your eye off the lack of jobs, the massive over-printing of money, and the second Obama administration’s incompetence. Look at Syria, instead. Ignore the significance of the 12th anniversary of 9/11, the glory of the new World Trade Center Tower, and for heaven’s sake, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!

Things I Never Expected to See

by Mark A. Cohen

Gov. Andrew Cuomo

YouTube of Cuomo Speech/Rant

I never thought I’d see the Governor of New York go ballistic in support of gun control. The rant portion of Governor Cuomo’s speech begins at approx. 2:30 in the video above, and lasts for about a minute.

-------------------------------------------------------------

I never wanted to fear that my daughter or granddaughter might suffer loss of limb by fighting an enemy on the front lines, but I do worry about this now.

-------------------------------------------------------------

The idea that a soldier who told stories about American atrocities during the Vietnam War could one day become the U.S. Secretary of State strikes me as quite unbelievable.

-------------------------------------------------------------

How can a nominee for U.S. Treasurer (one of two who signs dollar bills) be so incapable of signing his name? His signature reminds many of the white frosting on the top of a Hostess cupcake!

-------------------------------------------------------------

Given the critical issues of the day (the government has no more money, The Middle East is going nuts, Al Qaeda isn’t dead, taxes are up, North Korea threatens to attack the U.S. with nuclear missiles, the president is grabbing more and more executive power), don’t you find the media’s obsession over a football player’s fake dead girlfriend a bit excessive, let alone somewhat creepy?

-------------------------------------------------------------

I never thought I’d see a 16 oz. limit on the sale of sugary drinks. I’d buy two, instead, wouldn’t you?

-------------------------------------------------------------

This is the best one: I never dreamt that a hand-held device would ever be able to identify a song! (The android app is called Shazam.)

The Rich and the Jealous – or – You, Too, Might Succeed - and Then What?

by Mark A. Cohen

When the Democrats say, “Pay your fair share,” what are they really saying? The term ‘fair share’ is never defined by anyone, but the extrapolation is that some pay their fair share and others do not. Which others? They say the 99% of Americans who are rich don’t pay enough, and the assumption is that they can afford to pay more. However, nearly half of all Americans don’t pay any taxes. The top 10% pay over 70% of all taxes. The bottom 50% pays just over 2% of all tax revenues – as of 2009. This is down from 4% in 1999, by the way. Is that fair?

How does anyone know that the rich can afford to pay more? From our president on down, no one knows for sure, they simply assume, and you know what they say about the word, ‘assume,’ right? If the finger-pointing individuals were rich, they tell us, they wouldn’t use any tax loopholes. They’d do the patriotic thing and pay even more than they needed to. Yeah, sure. When you make more money than you can spend it’s obvious that you invest it through an investment company. They tell you how to do it, and you do what they say to maximize the interest you can make on your money. Why not? Think it all the way through, Democrats. What if you succeeded beyond your wildest dreams?

In 2004, Democrats didn’t target one of the richest men ever to run for president, Sen. John Kerry (D-MA). They left him alone for political reasons, of course. But they sure do pick on wealthy old Mitt Romney, don’t they? Since his father was rich, they assume he inherited his fortune, but he didn’t. He gave his inheritance away and built his own net worth over time. And yet the jealous and bitter ooze out of the woodwork and accuse the governor of investing his money in a place where he can escape our over-zealous tax system. When it was revealed that Sen. John Kerry anchored his yacht in a different state to avoid paying nearly $500,000 in taxes, the frowning faces went into hiding. I refer you to Larry Elder’s article about Democrats who support higher taxes but don’t follow their own advice.

So, if nearly half the people – at the lower end of the income scale - don’t pay taxes, and Mitt Romney says so, why does the media attack him for it? If he says these people will probably not support him, why do President Obama’s supporters mock him for telling the truth? When he says he “won’t worry about those people,” he doesn’t mean he won’t be their president, he merely is saying that they won’t vote for him so he shouldn’t try to convince them, that’s all. Relax, liberal folks, he’ll be your president, too, and will work to lighten the load on business so they will hire you.
