Most these monies will go to SuperPACs. Huffington Post was the first to broke the news because they had a source at the meeting! Charles Koch had pledged around $40M - according the source.

This hundred million is a great investment because if a Republican get elected in to the White House in 2012, the top one percent will receive billions of dollars.

Newt Actually came out attacking Romney in favor of the poor! Now, this is the same guy who said poop people/kids should clean washrooms. "I'm fed up with either party dividing Americans against each other," Newt said in a press conference.

This is irony at it's peak. Newt Gingrich didn't for the poor for the past three decades. In this case, Newt is effectively using populism against Mitt Romney to rally the base for him - because all the voters in the Republican primary are not millionaires or billionaires. Gingrich is painting Romney as the Wall Street wealthy guy, which he is the man who looks are the main street average folk.

This is a very effective strategy for Newt, even though it's totally fraud. All the gaffes Romney makes help Newt, and he's is pretty good at capitalizing on them.]]>

Rick Perry: 'I'd Send Troops Back to Iraq'

If you think Newt Gingrich got a bad plan for wars over-seas, and if you are frustrated with Pres. Obama's approach, wait until you get a load of Rick Perry. On Saturday night debate, Perry said, "I'd send troops back to Iraq. The idea that we allow Iranians to come back to Iraq and take over that country."

In October, 75% of Americans were firmly against the war in Iraq. Actually Obama wanted to stay longer in Iraq, but it was that Iraqi Administration that insisted US on pulling troops out by the end of the year.

Rick Perry, and other Republicans running for 2012 election, are total idiots. Only guy who gets this is Ron Paul.]]> http://www.obamachronicles.org/2012/01/10/rick-perry-id-send-troops-back-to-iraq/feed/ 0 Unemployment Drops to 8.5% http://www.obamachronicles.org/2012/01/07/unemployment-drops-to-8-5/ http://www.obamachronicles.org/2012/01/07/unemployment-drops-to-8-5/#comments Sat, 07 Jan 2012 06:27:00 +0000 Obama Chronicles tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1969312255750246268.post-1631731010692902428

New unemployment numbers are out today, and it's a good news. 200 000 jobs were created in December of 2011. With this, unemployment has dropped to 8.5%.

The Obama Administrations and Pres. Obama are very happy with the news, but of course the Republicans running for the office won't be much happy.

Unemployment hasn't been quite this low in a very long time. Here's a solid fact for Pres. Obama and his re-election campaign: since January 2010, 2.7 jobs have been added to the economy. It's a lot of months adding jobs to the economy, not destroying like the Bush Administration and the Republicans did.

Mitt Romney, who is running seeking presidency in 2012, has a tax plan that would double-down on Bush Era policies. If he was elected, economy would return back to what it was in 2007/2008. In fact, the biggest beneficiaries of Romney's tax plan are millionaires.

Rick Santorum also has a dumb explanation as to why the economy is getting better: he thinks unemployment rate is dropping because of 'optimism that Republicans will take the White House.']]>

Three way Race to Headline Iowa Caucus. Are you excited?!

Republican candidates in the race to outset President Barack Obama in 2012 will face their first hurdle tomorrow in Iowa. Four years ago, Hawkeye propelled then Senator Obama into the White House. Obama won the Iowa Caucasus pretty comfortably, which put him in a strong footing against the formidable Clinton Machine.

Fast forward four year later... this year the contest is to be highlightted in a three-way race between Ron Paul, Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum. Three-way is always better than two way, if you know what I mean :-).

Rick Santorum may be the odd man out. In a Des Moines Register poll puts him in second place behind Romney with 22%. Romeny is at 24%,while Ron Paul is at 18%.

Newt Gingrich has all but faded away to the black ( no pun intended ). He's at 12%. This is the same guy who said a couple of weeks ago that "I'll be the nominee."

"I don't think it matters who wins it here," said Davenport-based GOP strategist Steve Grubbs. "The real issue is who wins that conservative spot coming out of Iowa. We are going to have a libertarian slot, a moderate one and a conservative one. And ultimately it's going to be Romney versus one of those conservatives."

If Romeny does win in Iowa, then he'll likely to win in New Hampshire. If he can 'somehow' make Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry kneel down in South Carolina and Florida, this year long Republican primary would be over in the month of January. That's why it's so important for a Romeny-alternative to win the state.

Rick Santorum will definitely stretch primary well in to the Summer.]]> http://www.obamachronicles.org/2012/01/01/three-way-race-to-headline-iowa-caucus/feed/ 0 Weekly Address: Working Together in the New Year http://www.obamachronicles.org/2011/12/31/weekly-address-working-together-in-the-new-year/ http://www.obamachronicles.org/2011/12/31/weekly-address-working-together-in-the-new-year/#comments Sat, 31 Dec 2011 16:51:00 +0000 Obama Chronicles tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1969312255750246268.post-1077730173545329637
Remarks of President Barack Obama
Weekly Address
Honolulu, HI
Saturday, December 31, 2011

Hello, everybody. As 2011 comes to an end and we look ahead to 2012, I want to wish everyone a happy and healthy New Year.

The last year has been a time of great challenge and great progress for our country. We ended one war and began to wind down another. We dealt a crippling blow to al-Qaeda and made America more secure. We stood by our friends and allies around the world through natural disasters and revolutions. And we began to see signs of economic recovery here at home, even as too many Americans are still struggling to get ahead.

There’s no doubt that 2012 will bring even more change. And as we head into the New Year, I’m hopeful that we have what it takes to face that change and come out even stronger – to grow our economy, create more jobs, and strengthen the middle class.

I’m hopeful because of what we saw right before Christmas, when Members of Congress came together to prevent a tax hike for 160 million Americans – saving a typical family about $40 in every paycheck. They also made sure Americans looking for work won’t see their unemployment insurance cut off. And I expect Congress to finish the job by extending these provisions through the end of 2012.

It was good to see Members of Congress do the right thing for millions of working Americans. But it was only possible because you added your voices to the debate. Through email and Twitter and over the phone, you let your representatives know what was at stake. Your lives. Your families. Your well-being. You had the courage to believe that your voices could make a difference. And at the end of the day, they made all the difference.

More than anything else, you are the ones who make me hopeful about 2012. Because we’ve got some difficult debates and some tough fights to come. As I’ve said before, we are at a make-or-break moment for the middle class. And in many ways, the actions we take in the months ahead will help determine what kind of country we want to be, and what kind of world we want our children and grandchildren to grow up in.

As President, I promise to do everything I can to make America a place where hard work and responsibility are rewarded – one where everyone has a fair shot and everyone does their fair share. That’s the America I believe in. That’s the America we’ve always known. And I’m confident that if we work together, and if you keep reminding folks in Washington what’s at stake, then we will move this country forward and guarantee every American the opportunities they deserve.

Thanks for watching, and from Michelle, Malia, Sasha, Bo and myself, Happy New Year.]]>

Michele Bachmann's Campaign in Hot Water

Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann's campaign chairman Sen. Kent Sorenson of Iowa suddenly jumped on Ron Paul's bandwagon.

Rep. Bachmann is only beating Former Governor Jon Huntsman in the polls, the man who hasn't campaign whatsoever in the Hawkeye state.

The tea-party darling is furious at all of this. She is vigorously campaigning in what has become a must-win state for her. She said Sorenson went to Ron Paul's campaign because he was offered a larger sum of money. This was flatly denied by Sorenson on Fox News yesterday. Well someone's lying, and we don't have time to find out who it is because the Iowa caucus is only four days away.

"I had a conversation with Kent Sorenson and in the direct conversation that I had with him, he told me he was offered money. He was offered a lot of money by the Ron Paul campaign to go and associate with the Ron Paul campaign," she said at a tour stop in Battle. "No one else knows about that conversation other than Kent Sorenson and myself and I know what he said to me about that."

Ron Paul is tied with Mitt Romeny for the first place in the recent polls. Newt Gingrich's surge has fades away as he's down from 33% to only 14%, while Rick Santorum has surged to 16%.

Although the caucus is only few days away, given rises and falls of candidates, we may see a lot in the coming days and beyond to New Hampshire primary. In all of this, bad news for the Bachmann Campaign is that she has to win the state of Iowa to convince the Republicans, Tea-Party and especially her donors to help keep her campaign rolling.

If Mitt Romeny wins in Iowa, he'd go on the win New Hampshire decisively, but the Republican establishment die-hard conservatives would be clearly outrage at his. If Ron Paul wins Iowa, we could see a long primary battle between Newt Gingrich, Ron Paul and Mitt Romeny. If Gingrich wins the state, he would win most of other early primary states including South Carolina and Florida.

Rick Perry is not part of this equation - sad but true.]]> http://www.obamachronicles.org/2011/12/30/michele-bachmanns-campaign-in-hot-water/feed/ 0 Pres.

Republicans handed President Barack Obama an opportunity to turn his jobs campaign narrative into a real-life drama.

Since September when the president delivered his jobs speech to a joint session of Congress, he's been trying to sell a twofold message:

One - as president he's fighting for "working Americans."

Or, as he said on September 22: "I'm a warrior for the middle class" and "I'm happy to fight for working Americans."

Two - Congress is in his words "dysfunctional," standing in the way of policy that could improve the economy.

That's the message but the reality looked different. From the outside it appeared as though the president has been locked in battle with Congress with all sides deserving blame.]]>

President Barack Obama immediately congratulated congressional leaders on the deal, while Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell -- who increased the pressure on Boehner earlier in the day with a call for such an agreement -- said it was a "sigh of relief" for American taxpayers.

Under the deal, the payroll tax assessed American workers will remain at the current 4.2% rate instead of reverting to the 6.2% rate before the cut enacted last year. Without congressional action, the higher rate would have returned on January 1, meaning an average $1,000 tax increase for 160 million Americans.
