On July 19, 2013, President Barack Obama discussed racial profiling and commented on the jury verdict in the George Zimmerman case. Obama's statements indicate that he believes that the jury racially profiled Trayvon.
On May 13, 2013, President Obama spoke about the attack on Americans in Benghazi, Libya that occurred on September 11, 2012. President Obama discussed the talking points that were used by U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice to tell the world that the cause of the attack was a spontaneous demonstration caused by an anti-Muslim video. President Obama stated: "Keep in mind, by the way, these so-called talking points that were prepared for Susan Rice five, six days after the event occurred pretty much matched the assessments that I was receiving at that time in my presidential daily briefing."
On February 19, 2013, NBC and MSNBC announced that they hired President Barack Obama's senior strategist David Axelrod as a "senior political analyst" to appear exclusively on their networks. Given that both NBC and MSNBC claim to be news organizations, perhaps it will occur to them to ask Axelrod what the factual basis was for statements he made on November 4, 2012 (two days before the Presidential election) to Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday. Axelrod was asked about the attack on Americans in Benghazi, Libya, on September 11, 2012. Axelrod stated:
On January 16, 2013, President Barack Obama made a speech in Washington D.C., in which he announced executive orders and proposed legislation to "reduce . . . gun violence in this country."

On October 23, 2012, I wrote here that the Wall Street Journal reported on October 22, 2012, that the Central Intelligence Agency had provided inaccurate intelligence to the Obama Administration that the attack on our people in Libya was preceded by a protest over a YouTube video that got out of control.
On October 22, 2012, the Wall Street Journal published an article titled "Intelligence Stressed Libya Protest Scenario" by Adam Entous and Siobhan Gorman. It can be read here. There are several reasons why it appears to be an attempt to help President Obama deceive the public about the murder of our ambassador to Libya and several other heroes. I will address only one.
Article about President Obama saying we are not at war. (September 30, 2012)
Despite the protests of her husband, Michelle Obama deserves intense scrutiny. She may be family, but she is also at the top of her husband's list of advisors; perhaps no less important than Robert Kennedy was to his brother Jack.
Usually, children's books do not scare me. But I just read a children's book entitled "Barack" by Jonah Winter, with illustrations by AG Ford, published on September 30, 2008 by Katherine Tegen Books, an imprint of Harper Collins Publishers. "Barack's" dust jacket states that it is for children ages 4-7. This book scared me very much. (A link in the article regarding Obama's history on abortion legislation expired.

President Obama's recent statement about economic policy is confusing given his past statements on the subject. On December 15, 2010, President Barack Obama spoke to the press about tax cuts and said:
"And for me, the most important question about an economic idea is not whether it's good short-term politics or meets somebody's litmus test. It's whether it will help spur businesses, jobs and growth."
An old proverb states: "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime." The evidence continues to accumulate that this proverb has little impact on the Obama/Alinsky Administration and leading Democrats.
