SF Chronicle is Delusional

The San Francisco Chronicle asked its readers a rhetorical question to which they have no desire to entertain the real answer. They asked…

If the late Edward Kennedy’s Massachusetts Senate seat isn’t safe for Democrats, is Nancy Pelosi’s speakership of the House safe?

The answer to their own question?

The answer is yes, unless there’s a Republican landslide in November.

Her ability to maintain the “speakership” (btw, that isn’t even a real word), is a bit more in doubt than they are allowing their brain dead libtarded readers to think. They erroneously suggest that Republicans need more than a 40 vote swing. Problem – it is actually now 39. Let us not forget that Rep. Parker Griffith has switched teams.

That error aside, let’s for a moment discuss the ramshackled way in which this Speaker, her Senate counterpart, and her President have approached the advancement of their agenda.

They promised transparency. That hasn’t happened. They are making deals in back rooms to buy votes from their own Party members. The whole C-SPAN promise was conveniently ignored by the Emperor, Pelosi, and Reid. They plowed ahead with their socialist fantasy they dubbed ‘health care’ which has nothing to do with improving the health of this nation and everything to do with government control.

People do not wish to live an Orwellian nightmare. We don’t want to live in a society that needs ‘Big Bro’s’ permission for anything. We don’t want him looking over our shoulders and we definitely do not want him looking over our doctor’s shoulder. We don’t want a ‘framework’ in place that would make a single-payer health care system possible. We’ve seen what that kind of system produces in Canada, the UK, and elsewhere. It requires massive economic resources from the government and creates waiting periods for treatment. Often times by the time treatment is approved it is too late to be of any good. Babies are being born in hallways, lavatories, and in the streets as women are turned away due to over crowding. Cancer patients are denied life saving treatments solely based on cost. WE DON’T WANT IT!

The people are tired of political payoffs which seem to be all the rage in Washington under this Speaker and this President. The $787 Trillion dollar stimulus was nothing more than political graft. In the Death Care bill, the Emperor backs the tax on so-called ‘Cadillac’ health plans of 40%. Unless of course, you belong to a union; a clear payoff to big labor for their political support. Contracts for infrastructure, which the stimulus was supposed to be all about even though infrastructure improvements represented a small fraction of the stimulus spending, were only to be granted to firms hiring union workers or paying union wages. More union payoffs.

The promises of ending the politics of cronyism were nothing more than empty words designed to enthrall the masses to empower an agent of ‘change’. Obama has more of his political buddies in his Infestation than any other I can recall. Valerie Jarrett, Anita Dunn (make no mistake, she’s still around), Cass Sunstein, and others. They are all his cronies. Remember the failure to detect gate crashers at the state dinner for India? The woman in charge? Yeah, she’s a pal of Michelle’s.

Speaking of ‘change’, during the campaign we asked, “a ‘change’ from what to what?” A question that went unanswered until the current President took office and began to show the path in which he would proceed.

In the beginning of the 20th Century, a political ideology began to grow called the Progressive Movement. It encompassed not just one of the dominant political parties, but elements of both. Teddy Roosevelt, a Republican, was entranced by this new way of thinking as was Woodrow Wilson and Franklin D. Roosevelt (both Democrats).

Progressivism is a way of thinking that is governed by a progression toward another political ideology that lies in wait. A cancer willing to corrupt all that is good in order to replace it with an evil so great that it threatened to encompass the world. Some call it Socialism, others Communism, but at the heart of it all is Marxism.

The Marxist/Socialist/Communist ideology is all one in the same. It has been the cause of more death and destruction on this planet than any other ideology in the history of the world. At its heart, is control. Because the only way to make everyone truly equal, man’s inherent free-will must be removed. The President’s Death Care bill installs a ‘framework’ to do just that.

Obama, Pelosi, and Reid are Progressives. They are not by any stretch of the imagination Democratic. They and their kind have infiltrated the Democrat Party, taken up residence, and now dominate their agenda. The Democrat Party in the past couple of decades have adopted the platform of the Progressive movement and is now, due to their overwhelming majorities in both houses of Congress and the Presidency, poised to implement all that they need to take total control.

But the American people have at last caught on. They have risen up and begun to speak. They are putting Progressives in both political Parties on notice. “We reject your agenda!”

The complaint main stream media, the literal propaganda machine for this President and his Progressive agenda, attempted to mask the importance of the popular uprising of 2009. The Tea Party Movement sent shock-waves through the political spectrum and many in the Republican Party took notice. Some are still clinging to their own brand of Progressivism but most have been awakened to the Will of The People.

The People reject the fiscal irresponsibility that is being utilized by the Progressives to destroy the economy of the United States. The Progressives need the economy to collapse in order to respond to the emergency. The Cloward-Piven Strategy to implement Socialist Revolution.

Cloward-Piven is a strategy for forcing political change through orchestrated crisis.

They don’t even attempt to hide it any longer. Every action that this Infestation, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid go forward with (Progress) is in direct adherence to the strategy outlined by Cloward and Piven.

First proposed in 1966 and named after Columbia University sociologists Richard Andrew Cloward and his wife Frances Fox Piven (today Piven is an honorary chair for the Democratic Socialists of America), the “Cloward-Piven Strategy” seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.

This has been exposed and The People are wise. We recognize the “trojan horse” named Obama and we do not like what he’s attempting to do. This caused a rise in The People that the msm attempted to categorize as a “right wing” racist astroturfed political campaign when in actuality many life-long Democrats, Independents, and (and this really kills them) MINORITIES are taking part.

So no San Francisco Chronicle, Pelosi’s “speakership” is not safe. She will more than likely not be returning to the big chair come January, 2011 because the people are on the cusp of revolution. Not the revolution outlined by those two monsters Cloward and Piven but a second American Revolution. And the weapons of this revolution are the ballot boxes. We saw that in Massachusetts with the election of Scott Brown.

How can a Republican win the seat held by a life-long Progressive for over 40 years? And do so when his Party only represents 12% of registered voters in his state? The only answer is revolution. Republicans, Democrats, and (more importantly) Independents at the local and state levels are going to lead this revolution and those who do not adhere to the wishes of the electorate will be finding themselves drifting in the abyss of political irrelevancy.

America wants a return to the principles upon which this nation was founded. Americans of all walks of life understand that the federal government is too big and doomed to failure should it continue to grow as the Cloward-Piven Progressives in charge are directing. The American People understand that there is only 1 corporation that is “too big to fail” and that corporation is the United States of America. And we are all stockholders.

The only question remains is, can the Republicans do any better with The People’s trust? They certainly cannot do any worse.

Something Is Rotten In Denmark… [UPDATED]

December 2, 2009 Energy, News, Obama Fascism, Opinion, Orwellian Solutions, The Economy, The Fiction of Global Warming Comments Off

… And I’m Not Talking About Shakespeare.

After a short absence, I return to blogging with a doozy that I’ve been sitting on. During my time away I learned of the hacked emails released on the net exposing the “scientific” reports upon which the IPCC reports on man-made global warming as a massive conspiracy to commit fraud on a global scale. What a treasure trove of information for all of us who have been saying all along that the AGW claims of the MDI* were nothing short of bovine excrement (and smell worse).

I titled this post “Something Is Rotten In Denmark” not because of the massive amount of BS that has been dumped on the world over the last decade, but rather to illustrate what is about to happen in Copenhagen, Denmark in just a few short days.

The Emperor has decreed that he will make a cameo at the MDI* conference where a treaty is being negotiated that is meant to replace the expiring Kyoto agreement. Make no mistake, the conference will produce a treaty that the Obama Infestation will sign-on with in spite of the fact that it hasn’t a prayer in the world of being ratified in the US Senate. Don’t forget, Kyoto was agreed upon during the Clintonian Infestation (1997) and never came to a vote in the Senate.

Leaked were thousands of emails compiling 61 megabytes of data exposing a massive efforts to alter collected data on climate change to fit a predetermined outcome. “The earth is warming and man is responsible. So now we must bankrupt the world in a futile effort to reverse this trend.”

One such email discussed discrediting a couple of papers which didn’t conform to the predetermined outcome. The solution? Redefine what constituted a peer-review.

“I can’t see either of these papers being in the next IPCC report. Kevin and I will keep them out somehow — even if we have to redefine what the peer-review literature is!”

So much for trusting peer-review Mr. Ed Begley Jr.

Another email actually requested the destruction of emails.

“Can you delete any e-mails you may have had with Keith re AR4?”

Another explains why.

“I’m getting hassled by a couple of people to release the CRU temperature station data. Don’t any of you three tell anybody that the UK has a Freedom of Information Act!”

These so-called “scientists” couldn’t risk the actual data being exposed. Because they cannot admit a truth that “inconveniently” doesn’t fit their predetermined outcome and shows their computer models to be fraudulent.

“The fact is that we can’t account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty we can’t.”

Should this data be confirmed in the established “climate change” scientific community, it would destroy all that they’ve worked for and expose them for the frauds that they are. Heaven forbid they would have to admit that climate change is cyclical and man’s impact on the environment is actually insignificant. No, instead, they have to artificially keep their cash cow producing by hiding the truth.

“I’ve just completed Mike’s Nature trick of adding in the real temps to each series for the last 20 years (ie from 1981 onwards) and from 1961 for Keith’s to hide the decline.”

The agency at the center of the controversy raised by the leak of these hacked emails is the University of East Anglia’s Climatic Research Unit (CRU).

Given star billing by the IPCC, not least for the way it appeared to eliminate the long-accepted Mediaeval Warm Period when temperatures were higher they are today, the graph became the central icon of the entire man-made global warming movement.

Since 2003, however, when the statistical methods used to create the “hockey stick” were first exposed as fundamentally flawed by an expert Canadian statistician Steve McIntyre , an increasingly heated battle has been raging between Mann’s supporters, calling themselves “the Hockey Team”, and McIntyre and his own allies, as they have ever more devastatingly called into question the entire statistical basis on which the IPCC and CRU construct their case.

The senders and recipients of the leaked CRU emails constitute a cast list of the IPCC’s scientific elite, including not just the “Hockey Team”, such as Dr Mann himself, Dr Jones and his CRU colleague Keith Briffa, but Ben Santer, responsible for a highly controversial rewriting of key passages in the IPCC’s 1995 report; Kevin Trenberth, who similarly controversially pushed the IPCC into scaremongering over hurricane activity; and Gavin Schmidt, right-hand man to Al Gore’s ally Dr James Hansen, whose own GISS record of surface temperature data is second in importance only to that of the CRU itself.

There are three threads in particular in the leaked documents which have sent a shock wave through informed observers across the world. Perhaps the most obvious, as lucidly put together by Willis Eschenbach, is the highly disturbing series of emails which show how Dr Jones and his colleagues have for years been discussing the devious tactics whereby they could avoid releasing their data to outsiders under freedom of information laws.[1]

None of us who have been consistently skeptical of the AGW claims actually deny that the earth was warming. Quite the contrary. We acknowledge that the earth’s climate is constantly changing (both warming and cooling) and those changes are largely to do with a variety of factors including sunspot activity and ocean currents. Both of which when combined can cause drastic changes in global temperatures.

Solar activity, in particular sunspots, had been increasing for an extended period but suddenly plateaued around – and this is a shock – 1997. Sunspots have been nearly non-existent over the past 2 years. Isn’t that interesting? Sunspot activity has decreased over the past 2 years and global temperatures have fallen over that same period? Couldn’t be. The science was settled remember? Man causes global warming with our SUV’s, air travel, heating and cooling our homes, and eating meat.

The fact that the earth’s temperatures have fallen during the same period that sunspot activity has decreased to almost no sunspot activity at all can only be explained as coincidence when we all know it is carbon dioxide which causes global warming. Right? Well – not exactly.

CO2 will likely continue to increase no matter what the temperature does. CO2 is a naturally occurring gas on this planet. It is necessary for plants to grow. And in spite of what is commonly known about CO2, it does more than make cola fizzy. It actually causes man to breath. You read that right.

It is the CO2 build-up in our lungs that causes us to exhale. Once we exhale, our bodies’ need for oxygen sparks us to inhale and the process starts all over. (Attention DRONES, this information comes from a Pulmonologist who treats my daughter at Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center – I think I have this one).

Sounds to me that the science of global climate change isn’t as settled as once previously pronounced. But yet the eggheads and political hacks gathering in Copenhagen this month with the unapologetic goal of thrusting the world economy into a MEGA DEPRESSION ignore the obvious as they push an agenda based on fraud and the guilt produced by said fraud.

Unlike the drama of Hamlet, the stench emanating from Denmark this December is very real and very deadly. Global bankruptcy has no bailout mechanism. Homelessness, hunger, disease, and death are all products of depressive economies. How can the world survive a global MEGA DEPRESSION?!?

Note: The above un-sourced email citations were widely published over a week and a half prior to this post.

You can rummage through the emails yourself!

[UPDATE 0203]

Junk Science is reporting that the emails were NOT hacked as previously reported in this post and elsewhere about the web. Instead they have it explained this way on their site…

It has become fairly obvious this archive was not “hacked” or “stolen” but rather is a file assembled by CRU staff in preparation for complying with a freedom of information request. Whether it was carelessly left in a publicly accessible portion of the CRU computer system or was “leaked” by staff believing the FOIA request was improperly rejected may never be known but is not really that important. What is important is that:

There was no “security breach” at CRU that “stole” these files

The files appear genuine and to have been prepared by CRU staff, not edited by malicious hackers

The information was accidentally or deliberately released by CRU staff

Selection criteria appears to be compliance with an or several FOIA request(s)

Study Deals Blow to ‘Cap and Trade’

April 23, 2009 Barack Hussein Obama, Barack Hussein Obama Lies, Communism, Domestic Terrorism, Energy, Liberal MSM Bias, Libtards on Parade, Lunatic Lefties, MSM Ignorance, News, Opinion, Presidential Distortions, Presidential Politics, Stupidity, The Economy, The Fiction of Global Warming, socialism View Comments

From AFP via Breitbart.com:

Cleaning up skies choked with smog and soot would sharply curtail the capacity of plants to absorb carbon dioxide and blunt global warming, according to a study released on Wednesday.

Plant life — especially tropical forests — soak up a quarter of all the CO2 humans spew into the atmosphere, and thus plays a critical role in keeping climate change in check.

Through photosynthesis, vegetation transforms sunlight, CO2 and water into sugar nutrients.

Common sense would suggest that air pollution in the form of microscopic particles that obstruct the Sun’s rays — a phenomenon called “global dimming” — would hamper this process, but the new study shows the opposite is true.

“Surprisingly, the effects of atmospheric pollution seem to have enhanced global plant productivity by as much as a quarter from 1960 to 1999,” said Linda Mercado, a researcher at the Met Office Hadley Centre in Britain, and the study’s lead author.

“This resulted in a net ten percent increase in the amount of carbon stored by the land,” she said in a statement.

Wow – if I read this correctly it seems to me that the rapid warming of the earth in recent decades could possibly be the result of clean air legislation and pollution limitations placed on industry. Interesting… Or it would be if I actually believed that CO2 had anything to do with global warming – which I don’t.

The whole argument made by imbeciles like the POTUS is moot because global warming – when it was occuring, which it isn’t now – is cause by that big yellow ball in the day sky. It’s called THE SUN YOU TWITS!!!!

Follow the common sense logic as I AGAIN try to explain it to you.

The earth is 90% water. The sun’s ultraviolet rays break down the water molecules and create ozone and – wait for it – WATER VAPOR. Water vapor my friends is THE MOST ABUNDANT GREENHOUSE GAS IN THE EARTH’S ATMOSPHERE. It is water vapor which caused global warming.

NOW – the earth hasn’t warmed since 1998 if you believe the real data that has been collected and it actually has been cooling for 2 years. Isn’t it interesting that sunspot activity over the past 2 years has been decreasing? Decreasing to a point of almost non-existent activity in 2008 as-a-matter-of-fact.

That said however, you have the greenies of the Church of Global Warming of Modern Day Idiots led by that hypocrite Al Gore and his brainless protege’ Barry Obamaramadingdong running around like a bunch of Chicken Little offspring cackling about reducing CO2 with this massively expensive ‘Cap and Trade’ bull during a recession yet their efforts will do NOTHING to curtail climate change but WILL FURTHER DESTROY what’s left of our economy. This Global Warming BS – or climate change (or whatever the new fashionable term is this week) – is nothing more than a manufactured crisis meant to be used as a tool to destroy capitalist based economies and bring about world wide socialism which is the goal of every Marx loving liberal in the world.

So if you want to bring about the United Socialist States of Amerika and fashion our country after a failed economic system, go right on buying those compact florescent light bulbs, hybrid cars, and supporting ‘Cap and Trade’ legislation. But remember one thing as you are standing in that bread line in a few years… I TOLD YOU SO!

Waiting for ‘Change’? Well Don’t Hold Your Breath

November 20, 2008 Barack Hussein Obama, Barack Hussein Obama Lies, Communism, Election 2008, Liberal MSM Bias, Libtards on Parade, Lunatic Lefties, MSM Ignorance, News, Obama Fascism, Opinion, Presidential Politics, Stupidity, The Return of the Clinton Infestation?, socialism View Comments

As Barry O continues to slowly select his inner circle, one thing is standing out more than any other – these people look awful familiar.

During his campaign we heard nothing resembling substance but rather a lot of undefined rhetoric about ‘Hope’ and ‘Change’. We assumed that he meant that he was going to ‘Change’ the face of Washington and how it does business. At least that is the assumption that those of us on the right have about those who fell for that steady load of male bovine excrement that he was dishing out in his protracted 21 months of speeches masquerading as a political campaign.

Instead of reaching into a pool of previously unknown individuals, Mr. Obama is resurrecting Clintonian Infestation zombies. From his Chief of Staff to his pick for Attorney General, the Obama Infestation is resembling the Clintonian era more by the day.

Barack Obama made “change” the mantra of his presidential campaign. But when it comes to appointees, his team doesn’t reflect much change from the Bill Clinton era.

Of the 47 appointees named so far to transition or staff posts, 31 have ties to the Clinton administration, including all but one member of the 12-person Transition Advisory Board.

Transition chief John Podesta served as Clinton’s chief of staff from 1998 to 2001.

Other Clinton-era appointees include former Deputy Secretary of Defense John White, former State Department official Wendy Sherman, and former deputies to National Security Adviser Sandy Berger, Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin, Defense Secretary William Perry, and Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, Politico.com reports.

Also on the Obama team are transition adviser Michael Froman, who served as Rubin’s chief of staff, and Christopher Edley, who served Clinton and is married to a former Clinton deputy chief of staff.

Rep. Rahm Emanuel, a senior adviser to Clinton, has been named Obama’s chief of staff.

Obama is reportedly even considering Hillary Clinton for the Cabinet post of Secretary of State. SOURCE

emphasis mine

During the campaign those of us on the right were warning that election of undefined ‘Change’ would be dangerous. Now I’m afraid that the danger may lie within the masses who voted for Mr. Obama without knowing who and what he is.

Obama is so fearful of being tied to his socialist past that he refuses to dip into the pool of people that he truly wants to hold the posts that he’s currently making selections for. His true ambition is to select William Ayers for Sec. of Education but he can’t. He can’t because his past ties to Ayers have been exposed and he’s already on record denying them. He can’t because the American people have become reacquainted with Ayers, his radical socialist views, and is terrorist past. Remember – he who controls the youth has the future. It is Obama and Ayers who wish to pollute the minds of the youth in order to bring about an unachievable socialist utopia the empty promise of which has led to the downfall of dozens of countries and the deaths of hundreds of millions of people since the beginning of the Soviet experiment.

He can’t make the selection for Treasury that he truly wants because of socialist ambition. And the same could be said about State. In short, his plan has been foiled. His plan was to get elected without any light being shined on his true ambitions. His plan was to fool all of the people all of the time and he nearly accomplished that. This is the reason why he is reverting to Clintonian Infestation has-beens for his inner sanctum. He can’t have those he truly wants, so he’s selecting the failures of the past whom the ignorant public believes to be successes.

The recent Zogby poll that showed the ignorance of the average Obama voter this election cycle is a warning America. It is a warning that we can no longer be apathetic to the inner workings of Washington. We all must become political junkies and keep a watchful eye on the empty suits that we’ve allowed to be elected.

This same electorate actually believes that Barry O is capable of fulfilling his election promises because they are ignorant to the actual inner workings of our government. They haven’t a clue as to what is contained in the Constitution. The separation of powers is foreign to them and believe that it is the President who “rules” from the oval office.

The results of the 2008 election is a warning. A warning about the increasingly biased reporting of the leftist press and their unwillingness to expose the truth about leftist politicians. The election is a warning about the ignorance of the electorate and a need to educate the masses about who they are voting for before they vote. It is a crime that only 2% of Obama voters could answer Zogby’s polling questions 100% correctly. And one must wonder, if that 2% knew all this about the candidates before they voted, why is it they still voted for Obama? They must be part of the greater conspiracy to resurrect and institute the ambitions of the Communist Party in America.

The Election The Media Won

November 4, 2008 Abortion, Barack Hussein Obama, Communism, Election 2008, News, Opinion, Presidential Politics, Stupidity, socialism View Comments

The 2008 Presidential Election is going to go down in history as the election that was decided by the Main Stream Media and you lemmings fell for it. Republicans as a Party allowed the New York Times to select our Nominee. McCain was dead before the Times endorsed him in the Primary. CNN threw softballs to McCain before he became the apparent nominee. In the end, his friends in the press played pit bull on McCain and attacked him. Shortly after securing the necessary delegates to win the Nomination, the same New York Times attacked the very candidate they endorsed.

Barry Obama’s path to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue was paved with the dead bodies of aborted babies and heralded by the Main Stream Media which did nothing but cover-up and make excuses for Barry and his ultra liberal (and even terrorist) buddies.

The electorate of this nation has shown with this election that they haven’t the capacity to learn from our own history. There was another young man who ran for the Presidency and won without defining himself. He too was elected on the heels of an unpopular Republican President. That President went on to be THE most ineffective chief executive in our nation’s history. Under Jimmy Carter’s watch the unemployment rate skyrocketed to double digits, interest rates were in excess of 20%, and inflation was also in double digits. Jimmy too got himself elected without definition. A ‘Change’ candidate from the ‘corruption’ of an unpopular President Nixon.

When you fail to define your candidate before electing him to a position of power, you are playing with some dangerous elements. In Germany there once was a very charismatic character who ran for Chancellor based on ‘Change’. Germany too was in dire economic straights due to its loss in the first world war. Adolf Hitler led Germany out of its economic woes but at what cost? Over 100 million dead.

Instead of Jews Barry Obama blames unborn babies and they are his target for extermination. Barry will be in a position to appoint 2 replacements for the very liberal Ruthy Ginsburg and John Paul Stevens – who has one foot in the grave and another on a banana peel).

So America, during the next 4 years as jobs are eliminated due to Barry’s aggressive tax plan and interest rates begin to climb to combat inflation, and the cost of living rises as a result of the rise in taxes Barry is seeking to pay for his massive social experiment, as health care in this country goes the way of the British and Canadian systems where you have to wait 6 – 12 months to have a medical procedure, remember one important thing. YOU ALLOWED THIS TO HAPPEN.

You people disgust me. Because you could have prevented the screwing that we are all about to receive. But instead you allowed yourself to be influenced by Chrissy Matthews and his tingly feeling up his legs. You spineless lemmings allowed your guilt for America’s past influence your vote and voted for a man’s skin color in spite of his lack of character. America, you truly deserve what we are about to receive.

Obama and the Financial Collapse

Barry O and his Democrat friends on the hill would have you believe that the Bush Administration is responsible for the current mess that they are attempting to buy our way out of. Buy that is with taxpayers’ money. These are the same people who collected donations from the very institutions which created this mess.

I’ve got a series of videos detailing Barry’s culpability along with that of his DemCong leadership colleagues. But of course, they want you to believe that keeping them in power and awarding Barry with the Presidency is ‘Change’. Not hardly.

H/T: Ms. Underestimated

Senator McCain has picked up on Barry’s advisors…

First there is Jim Johnson

Next there is Franklin Reines

The Chicago Machine…

Change? I think not. Barry is nothing more than the same failed Democrat pie in the sky Utopian dreaming policy that failed Mr. Lyndon Johnson and Mr. Jimmy Carter. They were wrong in the direction of the country when they tried the libtard direction and Barry is wrong trying to take us in that direction now.

And what about the bailout?

I am Gribbit and I approve THIS message…

Obama’s Outrage Shows His Unpreparedness

September 10, 2008 Barack Hussein Obama, Election 2008, John McCain, News, Opinion, Presidential Candidates, Sarah Palin View Comments

It seems that the man with the middle name Hussein is a bit miffed at the usually accommodating press for accentuating his comment from yesterday – “you can put lipstick on a pig, but it’s still a pig” – which any reasonable person would assume is a jab at GOP VP Nominee Sarah Palin. He is claiming that it was taken out of context. He’s even more miffed at the McCain campaign for highlighting Obama’s insensitive comment.

“See, it would be funny, but the news media decided that would be the lead story yesterday. This happens every election cycle. Every four years, this is what we do. This is what they want to spend two of the last 55 days talking about…Enough!”

It is about time that the Obamassiah receive the same treatment from the press as everyone else gets in Presidential politics. Kind of reminds me of a song from one of my favorite bands.

“I know a thing or two about her, I know she’ll only make you cry, She’ll let you walk the street beside her, but when she won’t she’ll pass you by…” – KISS ‘Strutter’

The “her” and the “she” in the lyric reminds me of the press. It can be overly accommodating at one point then turn on you like a possessed pit bull at others. The press has been in the tank for Obama for so long when it decided to turn on him he had the reaction of an individual who is NOT prepared for the rigors of the Presidency.

His harsh reaction to the press’s 180 is proof that he cannot be an effective leader. If he cannot handle the minor criticism of the American press what is he going to do when faced with Russia’s increasingly hostile posturing, Iran’s quest for nuclear weapons, and al Qaeda?

Obama went on to say,

“These are serious times and they call for a serious debate…spare me all the phony outrage. Spare me all the phony talk about change.”

He’s right, these are serious times and we need serious people in charge. Problem with Obama is that he cannot handle the job. We’ve been saying for the past 19 months that he is ill equipped to handle the Presidency of the United States of America. The job is simply above him.

The McCain campaign, being the reasonable people they are, had the same reaction of Obama’s pig comments as the rest of us did and took him to the mat over it which sparked his comment from today. Reacting to today’s comment from “The Chosen One”, McCain spokesman Brian Rogers said,

“Barack Obama can’t campaign with schoolyard insults and then try to claim outrage at the tone of the campaign. His talk of new politics is as empty as his campaign trail promises, and his record of bucking his party and reaching across the aisle simply doesn’t exist.”

As for Obama’s comment, “Spare me all the phony talk about change,” then Barack ought to drop the word from his vocabulary entirely. He’s not an agent of change. He is nothing more than a younger version of Teddy “The Lush” Kennedy and nothing else. Barack Hussein Obama is nothing less than the same old product of the Chicago Democrat Machine. Change… He doesn’t know the meaning of the word.

If he hopes to defeat Hillary Clinton for his Party’s nomination in 2012 then he’s going to have to learn how to deal with a hostile press and people taking what you say out of context because that is what the job entails – like it or not. Because he’s losing this election and even the most hardened Democrats are realizing this.

Salon.com columnist Camille Paglia has even written…

I must admit that McCain is currently eating Obama’s lunch.

And…

Conservative though she may be, I felt that Palin represented an explosion of a brand new style of muscular American feminism. At her startling debut on that day, she was combining male and female qualities in ways that I have never seen before. And she was somehow able to seem simultaneously reassuringly traditional and gung-ho futurist. In terms of redefining the persona for female authority and leadership, Palin has made the biggest step forward in feminism since Madonna channeled the dominatrix persona of high-glam Marlene Dietrich and rammed pro-sex, pro-beauty feminism down the throats of the prissy, victim-mongering, philistine feminist establishment.

They see the election slipping away. They see the writing on the wall. They see a day in January when John S. McCain III on the steps of the Capital Building raises his right hand and says, “I John S. McCain do solemnly swear…” They see Sarah Palin doing the same and their world is crashing in around them. They’ve nominated the wrong candidate for President and they know it.

Theme of the Night – McCain’s Qualifications vs Obama’s Rhetoric

September 3, 2008 Barack Hussein Obama, Barack Hussein Obama Lies, Election 2008, GOP/RNC, John McCain, News, Opinion, Presidential Candidates View Comments

The argument of substance over words was pushed home last night by a very well delivered speech as to who John McCain is. Fred Thompson educated those who may not have known the extent of John’s character by detailing the ordeals of John’s life which shaped that character. Joe Lieberman explained the appeal of the man from an “outsider’s” point of view. He chose to emphasize that this is a time when we need a man for President who is prepared to govern not make finely tuned speeches.

This prompted me to revisit something that I wrote a few weeks ago…

Is Articulate Rhetoric A Presidential Qualification?

That seems to be the question of the season.

Many on the left (and right for that matter) use George W. Bush’s problems with vernacular as a measure of his intelligence and attempt to equate his problematic use of language (rhetoric) to his ability or qualification to lead. This is a false assumption. Many can speak eloquently but don’t have the practical ability to lead a lemming to the sea.

This truth brings up the question of Barack Obama’s qualifications to become leader of the free world and Commander-in-Chief of THE most powerful military force known to man. Is is qualified to lead?

He has never served in the military, never run any size private enterprise, never served on a board of a corporation, held office as a mayor of any city or governor of any state. His time as a state Senator in Illinois seems to be lackluster as he voted “Present” more times than taking a definitive position on any issue – save the recently revealed opposition to providing newborn babies who survive partial birth abortion procedures medical care under the guise that it somehow would lead to the eroding of Roe v. Wade. The only reason he took any kind of defining position on that issue is due to his love affair with infanticide. He loves to kill babies as evident by his A+ rating from NARAL and Planned Parenthood – the nation’s largest abortion provider.

He has shown that he can make weak-minded drones faint on stage and captivate audiences with his vague calls for ‘Hope’ and ‘Change’, but does that mean that he’s qualified to lead? I don’t think so. Jessica Simpson is capable of filling an arena with thousands of adoring fans but I don’t believe anyone in this nation would elect her dog catcher.

The point is my friends that we begin to journey down a dangerous path once we elect individuals based on a cult of personality which is all that Obama is. The most prominent leader of any nation elected in this manner was Adolf Hitler when he was elected Chancellor of Germany in 1932. The world can ill afford to elect anyone leader of any prominent nation based on his ability to speak and extract radical emotions from crowds of people. Especially when his positions on how to lead are clouded in a fog of vague rhetoric about ‘Hope’ and ‘Change’. Hitler dared Germans to ‘Hope’ for a ‘Change’ back in 1932 and it led to nearly 11 million civilian deaths. Can you base your vote on vague rhetoric? I can’t.

Iraq Pullout Agreement, Surge Success, Bush Numbers Up, Obama Impotant

August 23, 2008 Barack Hussein Obama, Election 2008, John McCain, Libtards on Parade, Lunatic Lefties, News, Opinion, Presidential Candidates, Stupidity Comments Off

The impending nomination of Barack Hussein Obama as the Democrat Nominee for President of the United States may be deflated before it gets started. The Bush Administration and the Iraqi government have an agreement for troop withdrawal out of the major cities of Iraq beginning in June of 2009 with the goal of having all US troops out of Iraq sometime in 2011. What is Obama going to use as campaign rhetoric now that a “timeline” for withdrawal has been made? All of this was made possible by the success of the troop surge that was first proposed by none other than Sen. John McCain who he must face on November 4. The result of all of this is that President George W. Bush’s approval ratings have been lifted a bit and are out of the dismal 20s and now in the mediocre 30s. All of these things are blows to Obama’s rhetoric which has been pounding nothing but platitudes about ‘hope’ and ‘change’ and identifying what the extreme left in this country perceives as shortcomings of the Bush Administration.

His newest strategy is to attempt to link John McCain, who has alienated everyone in the Republican Party at one time or another, to George W. Bush. The only real link between the two men is the fact that they are registered in the same political Party. Bush and McCain don’t like one another very much so linking them together is nothing short of a deception. If Mr. Obama believes that he his going to gain ground politically against McCain with this latest stunt he may have an impending education.

Obama’s selection of Joe Biden as his VP running mate may be the mistake that hard line Dems will point to when McCain wins in November. They will point to his choice of Biden as a calculated mistake that yielded balance on his ticket at the peril of pointing out Obama’s weaknesses. Biden has been in the Senate for more than 30 years so that blows the whole ‘change’ idea out of the water. There is nothing new about old politics which, if you haven’t been paying attention, is what Obama has been playing all along. Biden is outspoken to a fault and is a stunning reminder that Obama is inexperienced.

McCain and the Republican National Committee along with bloggers like myself will be hammering home Obama’s lackluster career as we approach election day. But standing along side of Obama for each and every one of his appearances will be big mouth Joe the ultimate example of politics as usual and Barack’s inexperience.

Biden’s baggage will become Obama’s baggage. The insensitive comments like…

My state was a slave state.

And who can ever forget the clean remark?

Or how about the 7-11 gaff?

… will, by association, become Barack’s. One would ‘hope’ that the KOSsacks would demonize Barack for bigmouth Joe’s vocal diarrhea as much as they demonize George W. Bush for Dick Cheney’s Conservatism. Because, as we on the right know, Bush is not a true Conservative. But I won’t hold my breath. The KOSsacks and their leader Marcos the Queer only see fault in Republicans – and Hillary Clinton of course.

So I’d like to say a very hearty THANK YOU SENATOR OBAMA for picking someone who will in all likelihood assist in your ultimate defeat.

Obama Losing Dem Leaning Indies

August 22, 2008 Election 2008, John McCain, News, Opinion View Comments

I had an opportunity to spend some time last night with someone that I don’t always see eye to eye with when it comes to politics. She expressed to Mrs. Gribbit and me that she doesn’t “trust” Barack Obama. She stated to me that she has been watching and waiting for Obama to say anything of substance and he hasn’t.

Now this person has confessed to me that she isn’t a Republican or a Democrat but rather an Independent who leans Democrat. So it can be understood that she and I don’t agree politically too often.

A few weeks ago I had occasion to speak to another person, who is quite liberal to be perfectly honest, who expressed to me that Obama is even a bit too liberal for her.

What does this say about Obama? It says that even among self-professed liberals and those who lean Democrat that Obama is falling short on the substance and that will cost him the election.

The woman that we spent time with last night would probably have voted for Sen. Hillary Clinton. When I expressed that I am not happy with John McCain and that on election day I won’t be voting for anyone but rather against someone. She actually agreed with me and said that is what she will be doing as well.

We had quite the discussion about Barack Obama and his credentials as an empty suit. She agreed that the simple words of ‘Hope’ and ‘Change’ can only take this “person” so far. She even agreed with me when I said that I couldn’t bring myself to vote for anyone who spouted platitudes of ‘Hope’ and ‘Change’ without defining what I should have ‘Hope’ in and what he plans on changing. ‘Change’ what from what to what, where are the specifics?

Obama has stated that he wants to be a unifying candidate and he may get his wish. He may be unifying a couple of self-professed liberals with this Conservative in voting not for John McCain but against Barack Hussein Obama.

SF Chronicle is Delusional

January 20, 2010

The San Francisco Chronicle asked its readers a rhetorical question to which they have no desire to entertain the real answer. They asked…
If the late Edward Kennedy’s Massachusetts Senate seat isn’t safe for Democrats, is Nancy Pelosi’s speakership of the House safe?
The answer to their own question?
The answer is yes, unless there’s a Republican landslide [...]

Study Deals Blow to ‘Cap and Trade’

Waiting for ‘Change’? Well Don’t Hold Your Breath

November 20, 2008

As Barry O continues to slowly select his inner circle, one thing is standing out more than any other – these people look awful familiar.
During his campaign we heard nothing resembling substance but rather a lot of undefined rhetoric about ‘Hope’ and ‘Change’. We assumed that he meant that he was going to ‘Change’ the [...]
