Obama held a press conference this morning to explain the impending change and to answer questions.
“As our country grows and changes, so must our money,” Obama said. “There is now too many individuals living in this great nation of ours that do not worship the same God as most of us. In fact some folks don’t believe in a God at all. This currency adjustment is truly change we can believe in.”
“America is a God-fearing Christian nation; it is now and always has been,” said 31-year-old Michael Anthony Claypool, a journalist with Al Jazeera. “Obama is the antichrist and this is just more proof to support that claim.”
Political activist, 35-year-old Paul Horner told reporters the fight to remove the iconic words from American currency is far from over.
“I have started a petition at WhiteHouse.gov to protect these words from being destroyed by our president,” Horner said. “I encourage all God-fearing Christians to sign it. These kind of changes must be stopped before Obama does even more damage. This is a stepping stone in the wrong direction and will only lead to much worse things. We have already lost Christmas in this country, soon we could lose our churches and Bibles too.” Horner continued, “It is a slippery slope my friends. This administration must be stopped at all costs.”
Since 1956, “In God We Trust” has been the national motto of the United States and is inscribed on the front of all our coins and the back of all paper currency. The Federal Reserve has setup a 24-hour hotline to answer any questions individuals may have about the upcoming currency changes at (785) 273-0325.

Obama Announces Plans For A Third Term Presidential Run
Obama Announces Plans For A Third Term Presidential Run
Obama held a press conference to announce his plans for a third presidential run.
“I can’t abandon the American people now when they need me more than ever,” Obama told reporters at a press conference this morning. “We’ve come this far as a nation, now is not the time to do something different. This is the change you wanted and this is the change you’re getting.”
Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky told CNN he does not agree with Obama and his announcement. “This defies everything the Constitution stands for,” Paul said. “We can not let this man have a third term.”
The U.S. Constitution does make an exception in the 22nd Amendment though: “This article shall be inoperative unless it shall have been ratified as an amendment to the Constitution by the legislatures of three-fourths of the several states within seven years from the date of its submission to the states by the Congress.” This means Obama’s third term presidential run is only valid if he receives 75% approval from the Congress.
A bill to abolish the 22nd Amendment was recently introduced into Congress by New York Democratic Rep. Jose Serrano and is gaining popularity. This is exactly the kind of news that makes an Obama 2016 Presidential run possible.
Paul Horner who is a spokesman for the Obama Administration told reporters how amazing this news is for the country. “Obama is guaranteed to win in 2016 and then we’ll all be able to enjoy this great man for another four years. Things could not get any better for the American people. I’m so stoked!”

Sanders to introduce VA accountability bill obama should be held accountable
Sanders to introduce VA accountability bill
Lauren Schneiderman
By Keith Laing - 05/24/14 10:24 AM EDT
The
chairman of the Senate Veterans’ Affairs Committee is planning to
introduce a bill to ensure military veterans receive better medical
treatment amid allegations of treatment delays at VA hospitals.
Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) said his proposal would increase accountability and improve veterans’ health care benefits, education and job-training programs. He plans to introduce the legislation after Congress returns from its Memorial Day recess on June 2.
“In
recent years, as a result of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, 1.5
million more veterans have entered the VA health care system,” Sanders
said in a statement Friday. “Congress must do everything possible to
make certain that the VA has the financial resources and administrative
accountability to provide the high-quality health care and timely access
to care that our veterans earned and deserve.” The Vermont senator
said his legislation would also restore a one-percent cut in annual
cost-of-living payments for military pensions.
Republicans have accused the Obama administration of attempting to cover up issues at the VA that have resulted in some veterans being delayed treatment.
Sanders has introduced the VA improvement bill before, but said Senate Republicans complained about the cost. Sanders’ office said the measure would cost $21 billion over the next 10 years.
Sanders said the importance of providing proper care to veterans should outweigh concerns about the costs of the legislation.
“If you think it’s too expensive to take care of our veterans then don’t send them to war,” he said this week in an exchange with Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.).
Rubio said Saturday in an op-ed in the Tampa Bay Times that the VA’s problems could not be solved with just more money.
Rubio touted his own bill to address the VA controversy that he said would make it easier for officials at the agencies to be fired for mistakes involving veterans' care.
“Over this Memorial Day holiday, I encourage people to let their senators know why action must be taken to hold people accountable for the mistreatment of our veterans,” Rubio wrote. “Current law obstructs this accountability by forbidding the firing of negligent and incompetent VA officials, which is why my legislation is so important.”

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the leader of the Catholic Church. For the popes of other churches, and other uses, see Pope (disambiguation).
"The Pope" redirects here. For the current pope, see Pope Francis. For prior popes, see List of popes.
The office of the Pope is the papacy. His ecclesiastical jurisdiction is often called the "Holy See" (Sancta Sedes in Latin), or the "Apostolic See" based upon the Church tradition that the Apostles Saint Peter and Saint Paul were martyred in Rome. The pope is also head of state of Vatican City,[5] a sovereign city-state entirely enclaved within the Italian capital city of Rome. The papacy is one of the most enduring institutions in the world and has had a prominent part in world history.[6] The popes in ancient times helped in the spread of Christianity and the resolution of various doctrinal disputes.[7] In the Middle Ages they played a role of secular importance in Western Europe, often acting as arbitrators between Christian monarchs.[8][9][10] Currently, in addition to the expansion of the Christian faith and doctrine, the popes are involved in ecumenism and interfaith dialog, charitable work, and the defense of human rights.[11][12] Popes, who originally had no temporal powers, in some periods of history accrued wide powers similar to those of temporal rulers. In recent centuries, popes were gradually forced to give up temporal power, and papal authority is now once again almost exclusively restricted to matters of religion.[7] Over the centuries, papal claims of spiritual authority have been ever more firmly expressed, culminating in 1870 with the proclamation of the dogma of papal infallibility for rare occasions when the pope speaks ex cathedra—literally "from the chair (of Saint Peter)"—to issue a formal definition of faith or morals | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
Exclusive: Confidential source reveals to me what really happened in Benghazi
Exclusive: Confidential source reveals to me what really happened in Benghazi
Glen Doherty and Tyrone Woods
Today as I returned from Detroit, I had a moment that I
truly felt was God sent, as I don’t believe in coincidences. It happened
on one of my flights, and it was two hours I will never forget.
I was seated beside someone who personally knew one of the men who was there on the roof in Benghazi. This person was excited to share with me the “ground truth” of what happened September 11, 2012.
My seat mate drew schematics to orient me to the “time and spacing” and the direction of the attack. I learned about the repeated orders to the men at the CIA annex to stand down and do nothing — thank God two of them, Glenn Doherty and Ty Woods, lived up to their code of honor and ran to the sound of the guns, resulting in their loss of life — but the preservation of life for others, their fellow Americans.
I learned about the proximity of the staging area of the attack to the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, and the attackers were indeed Ansar al-Sharia, a group affiliated with al-Qaida. I came to understand why Ambassador Chris Stevens was there in the first place and that he had in fact requested better security but was denied – the question is, by whom? And I learned that the Martyrs of 17 February Brigade were in charge of security and were the ones who opened the gates, then fled.
I learned there are those who are being threatened with their pensions being cut off if they come forth to speak.
And I learned, as I presumed, that there was a covert weapons scheme going on in Libya, Benghazi. We had been supplying radical Islamists with weapons against Libyan President Moammar Gadhafi, effectively supplying the enemy and destabilizing that country. And it seems that there was a CIA weapons buy-back program, the aim of which was to ship the retrieved weapons out of Libya through Turkey, and to the Islamist forces in Syria.
Benghazi and the operations in Libya are shrouded in a fog of lies, deceit, manipulation, threats, intimidation, coercion, abandonment, and worst of all, potentially treason.
No, it was not about a kidnapping scheme, it was about something, as I’ve stated, that will make Iran-Contra look like Romper Room. The web of lies spun is coming apart, and all other committee hearings on this matter should be shut down.
The House has established a Select Committee — quite telling that the same has not been done in the Senate — and those involved, to include the President, MUST appear before Rep. Trey Gowdy.
And to those Democrats appointed to the committee: if you seek to obstruct the revelation of the truth, you are complicit and guilty as well.
Am I afraid because of what I now know? Heck no. I’m honored to have been entrusted, so I for one can be on the right side of history.

Does it bother anyone that this person is the Deputy National Security Adviser?
Does it bother anyone that this person is the Deputy National Security Adviser?
Another
empty suit in a key Obama Administration policy position was in the
news today, as another Obama policy fails. In reading an article
today on Russia saying "nyet" to refined petroleum sanctions on Iran,
I was reminded of Ben Rhodes, about whom I have written before as part
of the coterie of Lee Hamilton acolytes
that serve in key positions in the Obama foreign policy and national
security apparatus. Rhodes serves as the Deputy National Security
Adviser (another Hamiltonian is Denis McDonough, the National Security
Council Chief of Staff).
Hamilton's
role in this administration has received very little attention, as
befits an eminence grise. Recall, that James Baker and Lee Hamilton were
chosen to head the Iraq Study Group. They produced a report that
advocated outreach towards Iran and Syrian, pressure on Israel, and
appeasement of terrorists. Later, Lee Hamilton wrote a very positive
blurb for a book that was a paean to Hezbollah.
But back to Rhodes-who was one of the key drafters of the Iraq Study Group final report.
Here is Rhodes agreeing with Russian President Medvedev:
But Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes agreed with Mr. Medvedev that sanctions should not "bring widespread suffering" to the Iranian people or be designed to bring down the Tehran regime.
No...would
not want to produce regime change or anything like that; better to keep
in place a regime that is the number one terror sponsor in the world,
tortures its own people, and is building the Bomb.
Who is Ben Rhodes and what qualifies him to be the Deputy National Security Adviser?
He was Barack Obama's speechwriter
(albeit, on foreign policy topics) during the campaign. He also played a
role in the Cairo speech that presented a highly fictionalized history
of both Islam (praised it for accomplishments that were not Islam's) and
Israel (a legacy of the Holocaust guilt).
Maybe
he has a certain talent for fiction. After all, it was only a few
years ago that "he was an aspiring fiction writer working on a novel
called "The Oasis of Love" about a megachurch in Houston, a dog track
and a failed romance.
Rhodes has enjoyed a rapid rise -- because why?
Granted
he is quite the wordsmith. That must qualify him for one of the top
jobs involving our national security. It must have been a symbiotic
relationship -- a talented speechwriter with a talented speech reader.
Does
Rhodes have any educational experience or military experience or, for
that matter, international experience? No... on all three counts.
Rhodes had just earned a master's degree in fiction writing from New York University when he was offered a job as a writer for Hamilton in 2002. A Manhattan native, Rhodes went on to write the Iraq Study Group Report and help draft policy recommendations for the 9/11 Commission, which Hamilton co-chaired.
Rhodes keeps in regular contact with Hamilton, who said Obama has thanked him "for making Ben available."
Rhodes said Hamilton still reviews Obama's major foreign policy addresses.
"We run most of the big foreign policy speeches by him," he said. "Just kind of like, ‘What do you think of this?'"
So far Obama's Iraq speech has been the most meaningful for Rhodes. Aides credit him with the part where Obama spoke directly to the Iraqi people. Rhodes is also behind Obama's telling the story of two Marines who died trying to stop a suicide bomber from entering an American military compound in Iraq.
During "the download" Obama had told Rhodes he wanted to end on the troops.
"I literally just spent a lot of time Googling," Rhodes said.
From fiction writing (displayed so well in the Cairo speech and the Iraq Study Group) to Deputy National Security Adviser-and he is all of 32 years old. And he is the Deputy national Security Adviser with grave responsibilities for our security.
But rest assured, it is not like experience or accomplishments matter these days.
