Tropical Storm Isaac Wins First Round – Republicans Cancels Day 1 Of Convention

Tampa, Florida (CNN) – The Republican National Convention has cancelled the program’s first day due to Tropical Storm Isaac, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus announced Saturday.

The convention will convene on Monday and then immediately recess until the following afternoon, Priebus said in a statement.

“Due to the severe weather reports for the Tampa Bay area, the Republican National Convention will convene on Monday August 27th and immediately recess until Tuesday afternoon, August 28th,” Priebus said. “After consulting with Governor Scott, NOAA and local emergency management officials, we are optimistic that we will begin an exciting, robust convention that will nominate the Romney-Ryan ticket.”

Meanwhile, due to the Republicans constant assault on women, David Letterman said some very interested things in his monologue on Friday. Mr. Letterman said that the storm heading to the Republican’s convention site is “proof that God is a woman.”

President’s Weekly Address – Strengthening And Preserving Medicare

The President used this weeks address to talk about the critical need to strengthen and preserve Medicare for our seniors and future generations.

Through the President’s Affordable Care Act, nearly 5.4 million seniors have already saved an average of more than $700 on prescription drugs, preventive care services like mammograms are free without co-pay, and the President’s plan extends the life of Medicare by almost a decade by cracking down on waste, fraud, and overpayments.

Republicans in Congress have put forward a very different plan that turns Medicare into a voucher program—under one plan forcing seniors to pay an extra $6,400 out of their own pocket for care-and effectively ends Medicare as we know it. The President believes that our seniors deserve better and will work with anyone to keep improving the current system to give our seniors the security and peace of mind they have earned.

Birther Birthers Mitt Romney Politics

Mitt Romney Has Joined The ‘Prestigious’ Ranks Of The Birthers

Mitt Romney has now officially covered every aspect of the political spectrum. He once said he was more liberal than Ted Kennedy, then he later called himself a Republican. When he decided to run for President, Romney magically became “severely conservative” and now, Mitt Romney is as far right as right could go… a birther.

Appearing before a crowed of supporters, Romney engaged in the nonsense that has caused the rest of the world to laugh at America. He questioned the birthplace of President Obama and officially joined the nut-jobs on the extreme right who have made up and propagated a story about the President’s birth to satisfy their foolish racist ideology.

You see, the ideology of a Birther  has nothing to do with politics. It has everything to do with a racist mentality that suggests that a black man or woman cannot achieve what Barack Obama has done. Being the President of the United States is supposed to be reserved for a white man only. So having this particular man in the White House has twisted the feeble minds of some and the Birther belief was created to discredit Obama’s presidency. Their masterful plan involves a conspiracy that took place some 50 years ago.

According to the Birthers, Ann Dunham (Obama’s mother) give birth to little Obama in Kenya. But she knew that someday her son would be the 44th President of the United States, so she began a grand conspiracy setting the path make that happened. She somehow convinced newspapers in Hawaii to print stories about the birth and she got the registrar’s office in Honolulu to go along with her lie. It was 1961, and everyone knew back then that this baby, son of Ann Dunham, would one day be president.

And their plan back in 1961 to fool Americans in 2008 almost worked. What Ann Dunham, the newspapers, the hospital in Honolulu and the registrar’s office didn’t count on was the infinite wisdom of the Birthers, and now, thanks to this group, Mitt Romney has seen the truth!

Jumping into the ocean of Birtherism headfirst, Romney told the audience of the place of his and his wife, Ann’s birth. He then added that no one ever questioned the place of his birth and the Birthers in his audience applauded.
