Obama Threatens To Hold Soldiers, Disabled People And The Elderly Hostage If Debt Ceiling Isn’t Raised

Obama Threatens Not To Pay Troops, Social Security If No Debt Ceiling Raise, Blames GOP On Credit Downgrade – Right Scoop

This morning Obama said that to not increase the debt ceiling would be irresponsible and said if the GOP doesn’t raise it, we won’t be able to pay social security and we might not be able to pay our troops. He then lists a whole litany of “horrible things” that would happen if the debt ceiling doesn’t get raised that makes Armageddon sound like it’s right around the corner.

He then proceeds to blame the GOP for the credit downgrade, saying that it happened because during the last fight over the debt ceiling, Republicans flirted with the idea of not raising it. So, he’s added close to 6 trillion dollars in debt in his first 4 years and yet he blames Republicans for the credit downgrade? Wow.

Shortly after saying this Major Garrett of CBS News asked Obama about the time when he voted against raising the debt ceiling as a Senator and Obama totally dodged it. But it was a great question.

Arizona Secretary Of State Threatens To Keep Obama’s Name Off Ballot Without Birth Certificate Verification (Audio)

Arizona Secretary Of State Threatens To Keep Obama’s Name Off Ballot Without Birth Certificate Verification – The Blaze

Arizona’s secretary of state is threatening to keep President Barack Obama’s name off the November ballot unless the state of Hawaii can verify that Obama’s birth certificate is valid.

Secretary of State Ken Bennett told KFYI Phoenix radio host Mike Broomhead on Thursday he’s not a “birther,” but that he’s responding to constituent concerns in the wake of Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s investigation into Obama’s long-form birth certificate. Arpaio released findings in March that said he believes the birth certificate the White House released last year is a “computer-generated forgery.”

……..

“I’m not a birther, I believe the president was born in Hawaii – or at least I hope he was,” Bennett said on KFYI. “My responsibility as secretary of state is to make sure the ballots in Arizona are correct and that those people whose names are on the ballot have met the qualifications for the office they are seeking.”

Bennett said that since Arpaio’s investigation, he has received more than 1,200 emails from people requesting he look into the matter. He said Hawaii has a system where they’ll verify a birth certificate in lieu of providing a certified copy of it – and that eight weeks later, state officials have not fulfilled his request.

“They could say yes tomorrow and the whole thing goes away,” Bennett said. “If they can’t say yes to that simple question, then it makes me wonder if we have to take it to another level. And one way or another, we have to have some simple verification that people are qualified for the office if they’re going to be on the ballot here in Arizona.”

The issue gained further attention this week after World Net Daily, which has pursued theories that Obama’s birth certificate is a fake, published an email that Bennett sent to constituents about the matter:

“Because of the importance and profile of the president’s case, and at the request of many constituents, I have gone the extra step of asking the state of Hawaii to verify the facts contained in his birth certificate,” Bennett wrote in response to concerns last month.

“[I]f Hawaii can’t or won’t provide verification of the president’s birth certificate, I will not put his name on the ballot,” he wrote.

A Bennett spokesman confirmed to the Phoenix New Times the secretary of state did write the email, saying: “With respect to the story, a constituent requested him to request a verification in lieu of certified copy. They have yet to respond.”

Asked by Broomhead whether he would actually keep Obama off the state’s ballot without the verification, Bennett responded: “It’s possible.”
