I gonna be gone for a few hours. I’ll be out shopping with my Dad.
back to normal posting later.
Update: I made it back. There’s just not anything that I care to blog about. Weekends are like that. I might put up a video or something.
Month: October 2008
Joe Biden gets asked tough questions by local Florida Media, cuts them off, allows no more interviews.
I guess Biden and Bambi do not like being called out on their Marxism. 
Hal Boedeker the TV Guy reports:
WFTV-Channel 9’s Barbara West conducted a satellite interview with Sen. Joe Biden on Thursday. A friend says it’s some of the best entertainment he’s seen recently. What do you think?
West wondered about Sen. Barack Obama’s comment, to Joe the Plumber, about spreading the wealth. She quoted Karl Marx and asked how Obama isn’t being a Marxist with the “spreading the wealth” comment.
“Are you joking?” said Biden, who is Obama’s running mate. “No,” West said.
West later asked Biden about his comments that Obama could be tested early on as president. She wondered if the Delaware senator was saying America’s days as the world’s leading power were over.
“I don’t know who’s writing your questions,” Biden shot back.
Biden so disliked West’s line of questioning that the Obama campaign canceled a WFTV interview with Jill Biden, the candidate’s wife.
“This cancellation is non-negotiable, and further opportunities for your station to interview with this campaign are unlikely, at best for the duration of the remaining days until the election,” wrote Laura K. McGinnis, Central Florida communications director for the Obama campaign.
McGinnis said the Biden cancellation was “a result of her husband’s experience yesterday during the satellite interview with Barbara West.”
WFTV news director Bob Jordan said, “When you get a shot to ask these candidates, you want to make the most of it. They usually give you five minutes.”
Jordan said political campaigns in general pick and choose the stations they like. And stations often pose softball questions during the satellite interviews.
“Mr. Biden didn’t like the questions,” Jordan said. “We choose not to ask softball questions.”
Jordan added, “I’m crying foul on this one.”
Some advice for Joe Biden and his running mate Bambi, you cannot take the heat, get the hell out of the Kitchen. This is the real world sir, and the media is not always going to be your friend. Not every media outlet is in the tank for you, so, get used to the hardball questions.

Obama’s Misplaced Robin Hood Complex by J.J. Jackson
Obama’s Misplaced Robin Hood Complex
By: J.J. Jackson
Barack Obama, like any good liberal, has a Robin Hood complex. This came out plainly when he bluntly told “Joe the Plumber”, a man who has been vilified by the left and has had his actual comment distorted into things he never said, that he wanted to, “spread the wealth around,” by taxing people who make too much. In this case, Obama has set that bar at a level of $250,000.
When it became clear to the Marxist left who believe in, “from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs,” that such ideas were not going to fly in America as they had across Europe, they started to sing a different tune. In singing that different tune they have co-opted the figure of Robin Hood whose claim to fame, they believe, was that he “stole from the rich” to “give to the poor”. To an extent it is true, but not to the extent that liberals want you to believe.
Robin Hood is a beloved story told to many children and has admittedly undergone many tweaks and changes over time. As time has worn on, the left has been able to portray themselves as modern day Robin Hoods who want to take from those that have too much to give to those that have little or nothing. But the true story of Robin Hood is not simply that he “stole from the rich” and dispersed those spoils to the poor. Rather, those that Robin Hood fought against were the bureaucrats and the corrupt that kept the people under the heal of their boot. He fought against what was, at the time, excessive government and those that controlled the reins of power and the feudal order of the time.
In early tales Robin Hood was a member of the freeholder class and a land owner – not someone that was poor himself. He had no real reason to stand up against the feudal system except that he saw it as wrong.
The Sheriff of Nottingham is perhaps Robin Hood’s best known adversary. In other tellings of the story Prince John was also right up there with the Sherriff and a cruel leader in the absence of King Richard who was off fighting in the crusades. Both were of the nobility, the “chosen” class, and given fiat powers to rule over the people without consent of the people. There were, for all intents and purposes, tyrannical politicians. The Sheriff was in fact, the “tax collector” of the day.
The second most famous enemy Robin Hood fights is Guy of Gisborne, whose roll changes depending on the exact story being told. Whatever version of the story however, Guy of Gisborne is a corrupt figure in the service of the Sheriff either directly or indirectly and a partner in the corruption seeking out Robin Hood.
Others of Robin’s foes are members of the Catholic Church who have turned to corruption like the Bishop of Hereford who was fleecing his congregation for his own betterment.
In fact, Robin Hood was not just a champion of “the poor” but of what was right. He regularly befriended tradesmen who would join his band of Merry Men. Businessmen oppressed under the yoke of taxes, farmers, workers and even nobles rallied behind Robin Hood. In fact, in early tales the “Merry Men” of Robin Hood were pretty well to do yeomen like figures. They wielded swords, not the quarter staffs of later tales and of poorer folk, and swords were not cheap so one had to have money to have one.
Yes, depending on the telling of the story, the exact circumstances do change. But overall the theme remains the same – Robin Hood fought against oppressive government and corrupt public officials and even church officials on behalf of the citizenry. Not just the poor, but all the citizenry.
This is a far cry from what liberals like Barack Obama want to do. But for some reason they still envision themselves as modern day Robin Hoods. Is it because of ignorance? Is it because of stupidity? No, it is because liberals do what they always do. They change the meaning of words to suit their goals. They rewrite history to clean their own consciousness while relabeling all the bad things their fellow travelers have done from slavery, to the formation of the KKK to Jim Crow laws to the murder of Jews during Hitler’s reign in Germany as somehow “right wing” and the product of conservative ideologies. Meanwhile they portray themselves as heroic and fighting for the downtrodden. Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain, the one at the switches and levers that wants to oppress and intimidate you into service.
They ignore the fact that Robin Hood was really more of a conservative than a liberal by today’s definitions of the terms and not a fellow traveler of theirs. They ignore the fact that he fought against tyranny, the established political order of oppression and high taxes. They ignore that that he took on corrupt religious leaders and called them to the carpet. And while ignoring all this, they supplant themselves as the true heir to a false legacy they have created for Robin Hood.
Yes, Robin Hood did steal from the “rich”. And by “rich” I mean the corrupt politicians and leaders of the day in which the stories are set. But he did not run around, much to the dismay of liberals, taking on good people who worked hard to make a living for themselves, stripping coin from their purse and running off to give it to another man who had not earned it.
On the other hand, liberals like Barack Obama are all about empowering big government and high taxation. Which makes them more like the Sheriff of Nottingham or Prince John than any sort of Robin Hood.

Computers don’t lie! (Well, usually…)
Another rip snortin’ funny posting before I head for the hammock.
A while back I posted about a nifty little utility for Firefox that allows you see which Blogs are political leaning in which direction. Blue is for Liberal, Red is for conservative.
…and so, I’m scrolling through the stories, before I head off to bed here and lookie here what I happen to see:
(click the picture to make it bigger!)
Notice what John McCain’s color is, where the arrow and the “!?!?!?!”’s are? (It’s blue, in case you’re wondering…)
*snort*
You’ll need to read this, to understand why I am so tickled over this.
Well, he does say that he’s a maverick! 
If there was any doubt that the silly season in here, this should help…
It now seems that the Computers of Ohio Attorney General Nancy H. Rogers, the Cuyahoga County Child Support Enforcement Agency and the Toledo Police Department. were accessed illegally to gain information on “Joe The Plumber”.
The Columbus Dispatch has more:
“State and local officials are investigating if state and law-enforcement computer systems were illegally accessed when they were tapped for personal information about “Joe the Plumber.”
Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher became part of the national political lexicon Oct. 15 when Republican presidential candidate John McCain mentioned him frequently during his final debate with Democrat Barack Obama.
The 34-year-old from the Toledo suburb of Holland is held out by McCain as an example of an American who would be harmed by Obama’s tax proposals.
Public records requested by The Dispatch disclose that information on Wurzelbacher’s driver’s license or his sport-utility vehicle was pulled from the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles database three times shortly after the debate.
Information on Wurzelbacher was accessed by accounts assigned to the office of Ohio Attorney General Nancy H. Rogers, the Cuyahoga County Child Support Enforcement Agency and the Toledo Police Department.
It has not been determined who checked on Wurzelbacher, or why. Direct access to driver’s license and vehicle registration information from BMV computers is restricted to legitimate law enforcement and government business.
Paul Lindsay, Ohio spokesman for the McCain campaign, attempted to portray the inquiries as politically motivated. “It’s outrageous to see how quickly Barack Obama’s allies would abuse government power in an attempt to smear a private citizen who dared to ask a legitimate question,” he said.
Isaac Baker, Obama’s Ohio spokesman, denounced Lindsay’s statement as charges of desperation from a campaign running out of time. “Invasions of privacy should not be tolerated. If these records were accessed inappropriately, it had nothing to do with our campaign and should be investigated fully,” he said.
The attorney general’s office is investigating if the access of Wuzelbacher’s BMV information through the office’s Ohio Law Enforcement Gateway computer system was unauthorized, said spokeswoman Jennifer Brindisi.
“We’re trying to pinpoint where it came from,” she said. The investigation could become “criminal in nature,” she said. Brindisi would not identify the account that pulled the information on Oct. 16.
Records show it was a “test account” assigned to the information technology section of the attorney general’s office, said Department of Public Safety spokesman Thomas Hunter.
Brindisi later said investigators have confirmed that Wurzelbacher’s information was not accessed within the attorney general’s office. She declined to provide details. The office’s test accounts are shared with and used by other law enforcement-related agencies, she said.
On Oct. 17, BMV information on Wurzelbacher was obtained through an account used by the Cuyahoga County Child Support Enforcement Agency in Cleveland, records show.
Mary Denihan, spokeswoman for the county agency, said the Ohio Department of Job and Family Services contacted the agency today and requested an investigation of the access to Wurzelbacher’s information. Cuyahoga County court records do not show any child-support cases involving Wurzelbacher.
The State Highway Patrol, which administers the Law Enforcement Automated Data System in Ohio, asked Toledo police to explain why it pulled BMV information on Wurzelbacher within 48 hours of the debate, Hunter said.
The LEADS system also can be used to check for warrants and criminal histories, but such checks would not be reflected on the records obtained by The Dispatch.
Sgt. Tim Campbell, a Toledo police spokesman, said he could not provide any information because the department only had learned of the State Highway Patrol inquiry today.
This is very interesting, especially how the two campaigns snipe at one other. How silly. The real victim here is Joe Wurzelbacher. I mean, this guy was savaged by the media, by the candidates themselves and by those who wanted to destroy this man to make a cheap political point. It’s rather sickening to me. It is, I believe, a reflection on society as a whole; people just do not care any longer about whom or what they tear down to achieve their own personal goals. It used to be called, “Dog Eat Dog”. It has gotten much worse than that. It is more vicious than before.
I guess I should not get too philosophical about it. If I did, I’d be writing an essay on it. It is quite a morbid affair. God be with Joe and his Family.

Keith Olbermann’s Worst Persons in the World
I’m posting this because I think that it is quite funny.
Bronze to Kathleen Parker, who wrote this rather hilarious article about John McCain’s picking of Sarah Palin.
Quote:
My husband called it first. Then, a brilliant, 75-year-old scholar and raconteur confessed to me over wine: ‘I’m sexually attracted to her. I don’t care that she knows nothing.’
Finally, writer Robert Draper closed the file on the Sarah Palin mystery with a devastating article in this Sunday’s New York Times Magazine: ‘The Making (and Remaking) of McCain.’
McCain didn’t know her. He didn’t vet her. His campaign team had barely an impression. In a bar one night, Draper asked one of McCain’s senior advisers: ‘Leaving aside her actual experience, do you know how informed Governor Palin is about the issues of the day?’
The adviser thought a moment and replied: ‘No, I don’t know.’
Blame the sycamore tree.
Which garnered a rather startled reaction out of Kathryn Jean Lopez over at the National Review:
Monica?! [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
Because I know some of you are understandably and sensibly wondering WHY?: We’re running our roster of syndicated columns through the election. Period. So that’s why we published one today that is embarrassing and outrageous.
Kirk Petersen called it a Cat Fight in the Corner. Andrew Sullivan got a rather hearty snort out of it as well.
The Silver goes to Rupert Murdoch for deciding that he is not too keen on his autobiography that is coming out.
The Gold goes to Rush Limbaugh for bringing up a subject that has been debunked by Factcheck.org and WorldNetDaily. (I know, I just broke a promise, but it was for a good reason.) My favorite line in this was, “Michael freaking Savage?!?!?!”
This is one of the reasons why I love being a Libertarian. I can sit back and laugh at the “Coming apart” of the Republican Party too.

Hope, Change and Death Threats?
Oh wonderful, more of this. 🙄
I can relate! 😀
The story via National Review’s Campaign Spot:
After releasing this morning’s numbers showing McCain ahead in Ohio and Florida, the Strategic Vision polling company received several death threats through the contact e-mail on the company’s web site.
David Johnson, the CEO of Strategic Vision, shared the messages with National Review Online.
One of the messages stated:
My goodness, your polls stinks. There are 3 polls that have Obama by double digits and only yours has Obama down. WOW!. How come your poll is the only one giving Palin high favor ratings? I think you nee dto be careful tonight when you get in your car and might want to check underneath your car. SCRAP YOUR IDIOTIC POLLS OR ELSE!
Another stated:
A poll that gave Sarah Palin and Barack Obama the same favorability rating is wrong off the bat. Be careful going outside tonight because you might not see tomorrow.
A third message stated:
Why would your presidential election poll results be so drastically different from every other reputable poll taken over the same time period? Are they that dumb or are you guys that smart? Smart guys wind up dead.
The company has contacted the FBI and appropriate authorities, Johnson said. There was, thankfully, nothing in the messages that indicated that the sender had actually sought out the location of the company or its employees. Johnson noted that while the messages came from different addresses, they all came within a short period of time, and that it was possible they were from the same person.
Johnson said he’s not fearful, but taking appropriate measures
So, when the Obama campaign sees that there’s one pollster that is not in the tank for Obama. They dispatch their followers to threaten and intimidate? That’s really unamerican. I hope they catch these guys. A message needs to be sent.

Dumbass – A little Late for that, don’t ya think?
Too little, too late…. 🙄
Via The Politico:
Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) has taped an advertisement apologizing for her televised comments calling Barack Obama anti-American, according to a Republican source familiar with her campaign’s decision.
Bachmann campaign spokeswoman Michelle Marston said the campaign will be airing a new advertisement this afternoon, but declined to comment specifically on whether Bachmann would be apologizing in the spot.
“You’ll just have to wait and see,” Marston said.
You should have thought of that, like last week, right after you said it, moron. It’s too damn late, because your democrat challenger has raised enough money to buy the damned election.
What an idiot! 🙄
(fixed typos and misspellings… what I get for rushing to get content out! Ooops!)
Here we go again… – The Ashley Todd Story Revisited UPDATE: The Story is a total hoax, Todd to face charges…
In fairness, I am writing this posting. It seems now that there are some serious questions being raised about this young lady’s story. I realize that my inital reaction to this, was a bit more, well; reactionary.
It seems now that the police are going to get a polygraph and speak with her again. I know Malkin‘s nose was twitching about this right off the bat. I simply had the reaction of what normal, red blooded, America, White, Males should have, when they see a woman being victimized. In short, I flipped my shit…. I’m allowed, I’m a guy. 😉 😛
In all seriousness, if the woman was lying, throw the book at her. If she’s not, then the police should get to looking for the idiot that committed this crime, and find him fast and throw the book at him.
Either way, I’m sure justice will be served, one way or another.
You idiot liberals happy now that I issued this? Morons. 🙄
Update: Looks like Malkin was right…. This comes via KDKA-TV:
PITTSBURGH (KDKA) ? Police sources tell KDKA that a campaign worker has now confessed to making up a story that a mugger attacked her and cut the letter “B” in her face after seeing her McCain bumper sticker.
Ashley Todd, 20, of Texas, initially told police that she was robbed at an ATM in Bloomfield and that the suspect became enraged and started beating her after seeing her GOP sticker on her car.
Police investigating the alleged attack, however, began to notice some inconsistencies in her story and administered a polygraph test.
Authorities, however, declined to release the results of that test.
Investigators did say that they received photos from the ATM machine and “the photographs were verified as not being the victim making the transaction.”
This afternoon, a Pittsburgh police commander told KDKA Investigator Marty Griffin that Todd confessed to making up the story.
The commander added that Todd will face charges; but police have not commented on what those charges will be.
According to police, investigators working on the interview process detected several inconsistencies in Todd’s story that differed from statements made in the original police report.
Pittsburgh Police Public Information Officer Diane Richard released a statement earlier today, saying: “Because of the inconsistencies in her statements, Ms. Todd was asked to submit to a polygraph examination which she agreed to do.”
No photos of Todd are being released by Pittsburgh Police at this time.
The investigation is continuing as officials determine what charges will be filed.
Throw the book at her. The bitch. Use us bloggers like that to garner sympthy for the hoe. Fucking lock her in the jail and throw away the damn key. 😡
Update 3: It’s now being reported that she etched the “B” herself. What an asshole. Memeornadum has the blogger reaction from both sides of the aisle. Needless to say, there are many people who are pissed about this, on both sides of the political spectrum, and rightly so.
Update 4: College Republicans Have Released a statement: (via HotAir)
“When Ms. Todd initially contacted us claiming to have been attacked our first reaction was obviously to be concerned for her safety. We are as upset as anyone to learn of her deceit, Ashley must take full responsibility for her actions.” – Ashley Barbera, Communications Director
“We have terminated her effective today. Obviously, we had no idea she was making this story up.” – Ethan Eilon
Good on them for doing this. In the end, this is only to hurt McCain’s campaign and the Republicans image. I have to give the ol’ gal credit, Michelle Malkin, was, in fact, right all along.
Update 5: Via Pittsburgh Live: (H/T to HotAir)
A McCain-Palin campaign volunteer who claimed she was robbed and cut by a supporter of Sen. Barack Obama has confessed to making up the story, Pittsburgh police Assistant Chief Maurita Bryant said this afternoon.
Ashley Todd, 20, of College Station, Texas, is charged with filing a false police report. She told investigators she has had psychological issues in the past and Bryant said detectives are working with the Allegheny County District Attorney’s office to determine whether Todd should be released on the misdemeanor charge or taken to a hospital for evaluation.
“She just opened up and said she wanted to tell the truth,” Bryant said. “She was upset with the media for blowing this into a political firestorm.“
HUH??? Let me get this straight, we’re in the middle of the most historic election ever, and this bitch pulls a stunt like this and she’s pissed off, because people dare to speak of the political ramifications? Oy! and they call me a screwball?!?!? Ha! 😆
and…. finally, Via WTAE-TV:
Todd, of College Station, Texas, admitted there was no robbery or attacker and said she had prior mental health problems, according to Bryant.
It’s not yet clear whether Todd’s face was mutilated by her, or if she had somebody else do it, because a police report states that she told them she can’t remember
Ya think? 🙄
Update 6: The only thing I can say about this is:
More Stupidity from the comments section
(Please note: This posting was made BEFORE I knew about this here…. That is all…)
As you all know, I moderate the comments section on here. Mainly because I would like a Blog that isn’t full of Liberal stupidity.
Here’s a funny one:

Comment:
“Of course, the best that useless Marxist Magic Negro can say is”
You a racist? What would make anyone say that? Was Obama on the street coner? What the Hell did you expect his campaign to say? Didn’t I read somewhere that he is dealing with the very real possibility that the woman who raised him is dying? Please don’t be a bottom feeder.
At the risk of sounding like Mark Levin, I would expect that idiot liberal to at least pay for the young woman’s medical bills, even personally call her and express his sorrow for the attack. But did Barry do that? No! Best he could do is issue some rather lame statement through his fucking campaign!
As for your allegations of racism. Don’t make me laugh. I’ve got black friends and white friends and friends of other races as well. But even if I were a racist bigot, isn’t my constitutional right to be a racist? Am I not a free American? Since when did it become a fucking federal offense to happen to not care for a particular race? The truth is, it is not or has it ever been, or will it ever be, unless some stupid idiot liberal manages to pass a piece of legislation outlawing the disliking of over races. Which in that case, they’d better arrest all of the Latinos and Blacks up in Washington D.C., because from what I saw on a special on CNN, there is a group of them in Washington D.C. and there’s a street, I believe it was 150’th street, that Latinos don’t cross and blacks don’t either, they stay on their respected sides, otherwise a war will break out.
Of course, because I’m white, I’m convenient for the blacks to target. Seeing how it has worked for years. That’s what keeps Al “Interloper” Sharpton and Jesse “Hymietown” Jackson in business.
As to the socialist idiot who left the comment, my advice to you is, if you don’t like what you read here. There’s plenty of Liberal Blogs out there to read. I don’t force anyone to come here. That’s why the sign on the door says “Moderate Libertarian Opinion”. This is an Opinion Blog, of whom, it’s owner thinks socialism sucks. You might want to look that up.
Some nice unhinged Liberal wisdom
Okay the wisdom part, I may have stretched a bit… Here’s a nice sampling of the stuff I get in my comments.

Um…. This is not cool either….
Signs that the Republicans or at least some Conservatives are wee bit desperate.
Via the IndyStar:
FRANKLIN, Ind. (AP) — A Republican county election clerk distributed copies of an apparent chain letter referring to Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama as a “young, black Adolf Hitler” to two employees but later told police she intended it to be a joke.
The employees, who had voted for Obama in Indiana’s Democratic primary, discovered the letters at their desks after returning from Labor Day weekend, Deputy Sheriff Doug Cox said in a police report made public this week. One of the workers complained, and surveillance video showed Johnson County Clerk Jill Jackson placing an item one worker’s desk at 5:27 p.m. on the Friday of Labor Day weekend, Cox said.
“She admitted to being responsible for the letter, but only did it as a joke,” Cox said. Jackson told police she had intended to speak with the workers upon returning to work but forgot.
I can see private citizens, but election officials? This woman ought to be fired.
It gets a wee bit racist too:
The letter does not mention Obama by name but makes references to his ties to a Chicago church whose pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright, adheres to black liberation theology. It is heavy with racial references, criticizing the candidate’s parentage with such comments as, “He is proud of his ‘African heritage’ (a father who got a white girl pregnant and deserted her)” and asking, “Where is the pride in his ‘White heritage?’”
The unsigned letter urges readers to send it to everyone they know.
Not smart, not smart at all. 🙄
Of course:
Indiana this year is considered a battleground state, and Obama campaigned there Thursday, drawing an estimated 35,000 people to a rally in downtown Indianapolis.
Johnson County is heavily Republican, with nearly three-quarters of the votes cast in the 2004 presidential election going to President Bush.
Just showing them true colors, as always. This is why I am not in that party.

Texas Blogger could use a little help
I was chatting with Greg from Rhymes with Right. I guess he took on some serious water down there in Texas during hurricane Ike. Of course, our wonderful Government which ol’ “Barry” wants to expand, is dragging their feet with his claim.
If you all can spare a little, head on over and click on his paypal box and send a little to him. He could really use the help, cause every little extra helps.

Even more fascism from B. Hussein Obama’s supporters
Now this is getting serious. I thought the face carving was bad, but this is getting real.
This comes via local6.com:
The home of a Central Florida Republican headquarters manager was shot up and damaged over his support of Sen. John McCain, the man told police.
Rog Coverely said several pellets pierced his Longwood home. Coverely showed several spiderwebbed-holes in the front windows of his home.
The Republican manager said he is convinced he was targeted because of new McCain signs he added around his home.
“All I can tell you is this, I have a very good relationship with my neighbors,” Coverely said. “I mow my lawn. The only thing that has changed is I have two McCain signs in my front yard.”
Coverely said he has taken about 300 calls concerning stolen or vandalized McCain signs in the area.
“It says this campaign is getting vicious,” Coverely said.
Coverely said it appears Democrats are becoming more aggressive in the county.
“I wouldn’t say slipping, but I would say the Democrats have become far more aggressive in Seminole County because it is such a heavy Republican area,” Coverely said.
Meanwhile, McCain was in Florida on Thursday.
The Republican presidential nominee spoke at Allstar Building Materials in Ormond Beach. Later he’ll be in Sarasota for a “Joe the Plumber” bus tour rally at Robarts Arena.
Video:
I mean, I do not know about you. But I am more worried that if Barack Obama will be elected there might just be an outbreak of lawlessness. Even more so, if McCain wins. This is why I do not put Signs up at my house here.
Either way, this is nuts! 😮

One of Barry’s fans, I’m sure…. UPDATE: Woman’s Claims are an Admitted Hoax… Follow links to newest posting!
So, this is what they do to people who support McCain:
Via WTAE-TV in Pittsburg, Pa:
A 20-year-old woman who was robbed at an ATM in Bloomfield was also maimed by her attacker, police said.
Pittsburgh police spokeswoman Diane Richard tells Channel 4 Action News that the victim was robbed at knifepoint on Wednesday night outside of a Citizens Bank near Liberty Avenue and Pearl Street just before 9 p.m.
Richard said the robber took $60 from the woman, then became angry when he saw a McCain bumper sticker on the victim’s car. The attacker then punched and kicked the victim, before using the knife to scratch the letter “B” into her face, Richard said.
Richard said the woman refused medical treatment after the assault, which happened outside the view of the bank’s surveillance cameras.
The robber is described as a dark-skinned black man, 6 feet 4 inches tall, 200 pounds with a medium build, short black hair and brown eyes. The man was wearing dark colored jeans, a black undershirt and black shoes.
Of course, the best that useless Marxist Magic Negro can say is:
The Obama-Biden campaign released a statement, commenting on the attack. The statement said “Our thoughts and prayers are with the young woman for her to make a speedy recovery, and we hope that the person who perpetrated this crime is swiftly apprehended and brought to justice.”
I know what I am thinking, but the last time I expressed my frustration, I made it to gawker.com. So, I’ll just keep my damn mouth shut. I think you all know what I’m feelin’… 
Update: Malkin has her doubts.
Update 2: Turns out the story is a Hoax. I’ve Blogged about it. Go read, please.

This is why I am no longer a Democrat
It is not everyday that I agree or even link to, or in this case, fawn over a story that is done by the National Review.
But this, is an exception……
Byron York just did an excellent story on a Marine who gave John McCain his purple heart.
"I just gave John McCain my Purple Heart," Marine Sgt. Jack Eubanks told me a few minutes after McCain finished a speech at a campaign rally in Woodbridge, Virginia Saturday. "I said, ‘I want to give this to you, sir, as a reminder that we want you to keep your promise to bring us home in victory and honor, so it will mean something.’"
"We fought over there, and we want it to mean something," Eubanks continued. "We don’t want to come back and it just be all for nothing."
Eubanks, 22 years old, knows as much about the war as anyone. On October 3, 2005, he was in a Humvee on patrol near the Syrian border when an IED went off. "I was thrown from the vehicle, took some shrapnel, landed on my spine and mashed it up a little bit," Eubanks told me in a remarkably good-humored way. He was injured much more than just a little; it took him eleven months to recover. And then — then he volunteered to go back. In August 2007, he was hurt again in a strangely similar way. "Hit by a mortar, thrown from a vehicle — the same situation," Eubanks told me. Now, he’s teaching recruits at Marine Corps Base Quantico — and walking with a cane.
Steve over at Wizbang, chimes in on this, in a way, that I never could ever match:
Unlike The Message(TM) fed to us at every turn, we are not a nation of community organizers, bitter malcontents or hyper-intellectuals or even ‘education reformers’ rubbing ideological elbows with Hugo Chavez.
We are a nation of quiet doers, not just loud mouthed gripers.
We, America, remain as we always have been – a Nation of Sergeants; a people who fight with grit, think with clarity, enter each day with determined work ethic, and love with intensity. And our love of country – for what it is, not simply some farcical vision of what it could be or should have been – is no more blind or rote than our love of family.
And it is just as fierce.
We are a Nation of Sergeants. Thank you, Sgt. Eubanks, for your service, your sacrifice, and for your reminder. Semper Fi, Marine.
To that, I simply add, a solemn; Amen.
This, is why I could never vote Democrat come November 4, 2008. The Democratic Party just does not give flying flip about our Military. Barack Hussein Obama has never served a damned day in our Nation’s Military. He just does not fucking get it it at all. Yes, I do realize that our going into Iraq was a tragic mistake, caused by a incompetent and possibly lazy intelligence department. But for this Nation to pull itself out of a situation that we created ourselves; would be the greatest strategic blunder, since the United States of America’s withdrawal from Vietnam.
If we quit, before it’s time. All those that we lost, will have been lost; for nothing.

Highly Recommended Reading: Prairie Fire – The forgotten communist manifesto of William Ayers
This comes via Zombie Time. It’s highly recommended thing to read.
The finer points are:
Ayers was not simply protesting “against” the Vietnam War. Firstly, he wasn’t against war in principle, he was agitating for the victory of the communist forces in Vietnam. In other words: He wasn’t against the war, he was against our side in the war. This is spelled out in great detail in Prairie Fire. Secondly, and more significantly, the Vietnam War was only one of many issues cited by the Weather Underground as the justifications for their violent acts. As you will see below, in various quotes from Prairie Fire and in their own list of their violent actions (and in additional impartial documentary links), Ayers and the Weather Underground enumerated dozens of different grievances as the rationales for their bombings — their overarching goal being to inspire a violent mass uprising against the United States government in order to establish a communist “dictatorship of the proletariat,” in Ayers’ own words.
• Ayers and his co-authors freely brag about their bombings and other violent and illegal acts, and even provide a detailed list, most likely typed up by Ayers himself, of the crimes they had committed up to that point. Ayers’ list, scanned directly from Prairie Fire, is shown below. He may have escaped conviction due to a legal technicality (the prosecutors failed to get a warrant during some of their surveillance of the Weather Underground), but this in no way means that Ayers was factually innocent of the crimes. As has been widely reported, after the case against him was dropped, Ayers described himself as “guilty as hell, free as a bird.”
• Just because Ayers tries to appear respectable now doesn’t mean that he wasn’t a violent revolutionary in the past. In fact, as the text of Prairie Fire shows, Ayers was one of the most extreme extremists in American political history. And as the links given as the end of this essay will prove, Ayers is just as politically radical now as he was back then. He has never renounced the political views he professed in the 1960s and 1970s. The only difference is that now he no longer commits violence to achieve his goals. After his stint as the leader of the Weather Underground, he shifted to a different tactic: to spread his ideology under the aegis of academia. But the goal remains the same: to turn America into a communist nation. Ayers’ contemporary writings contain many of the same ideas (and even the same phrases) found in Prairie Fire, just toned down to make them more palatable in polite society.
Please, go read the rest at Zombie time!
I look at stuff like this and I just have to ask myself. Just what the fuck exactly are we electing for President?

Me, Sarah Palin, and Small Businesses….
This is going to be one of those long rambling posts. You have been warned. 
This is a slight mea culpa for me. Just letting everyone know, My Dad is at home and doing just fine. We are assuming, or at least I am, that my Dad’s pain that he was experiencing was not a heart attack. In fact, I don’t think anyone knows, for sure, what it was. But just as well, he is home, he is fine and I thank those who e-mailed me, letting me know that they were praying for my Father. I had zero clue that I had that many readers. Egad, if as many of you donated, as you did read, I could do this forever and never have to look for a job. Yes, I will harp the damn point again, there’s a donate button on the right hand side of your screen, down about midways, please use liberally! Please? 
Anyhow, on with the Mea Culpa, I apologize to many of you that come here and get your daily doze of Libertarian with attitude. After I brought Dad home yesterday from the Hospital, I went out to a local coffee house here in the area and proceeded to get loaded on caffeine. I ordered the biggest “House Blend” that they sold. Caffeine is such a bastardly drug. It gets you all cranked up and wound up like a top and then drops you like a bowling ball. I woke up today, at noon. I felt like I had been doing shots of whiskey the night before! I felt horrible! Needless to say, I managed to pull my rather miserable self together to get some sort of posting out.
So, anyhow, I even talked to the owner of “The Grind”, the Economy is killing her business, she’s now having to charge for refills. She’s also had to up the price for coffee. We discussed Obama and McCain. She agreed with me. Obama’s plan will put the hurt on small businesses like hers. I offered to help her get her Business on a domain address and possibly even get her gourmet coffees online, so people could order them and have them shipped to various parts of the country. I also thank her profusely for getting Wifi. I cannot believe how many places have wifi internet. It boggles this old school, 36 year old man’s mind. 
Anyhow, on the Sarah Palin front, I’ve already blogged about how the Main Stream corporate and Liberal controlled media is making a rather big deal over Sarah Palin’s clothing bill. Well, it seems that am not the only person that thinks the story is a bit overblown:
Ed Morrissey over at HotAir.com agrees with me: (Mark your calendars, this is quite rare!)
Does this violate FEC regulations? Only if Palin intended on keeping the clothes — which she doesn’t. The RNC made clear that the outfits will go to charitable donations, and one might imagine that they could generate some hefty bids if placed for auction after the election. She won’t keep any of it, unless she buys it back from the RNC.
[….]
Dressing nicely or shopping at Saks or Neiman-Marcus does not disqualify someone from the middle class. Professionals do not shop for their work wardrobes at Target or Wal-Mart, not even those from the middle class. Having sold clothing for a time myself, I understand the need to look one’s best when making a new impression, and a Sears pantsuit won’t work on the national-election level. With the Tanning Bed Media lying in wait for Palin, she needed to make the best impression possible.
Was this a good use of funds for the RNC? They have had more than a $100 million on hand between the campaign and the RNC in September. They spent around 0.15% of that on Palin’s wardrobe. It’s less than they’d pay for a single network-TV spot, and they’ll get more use out of it.
Even Jazzshaw from the Moderate Voice, who’s not a Sarah Palin supporter, by a long shot, thinks this is all a bit strange too:
People spend what they can afford to spend on clothing. Personally, I tend to wait for a good sale from Joseph A. Bank when you can get a very nice men’s suit for two hundred dollars. But that’s because I’m not exactly made of money. Were I some sort of high-powered CEO with a seven figure income, I’m sure that my suits would cost five grand and I’d have some Armani in the closet.
I have no idea what Sarah Palin spent on clothes when she was the Mayor of Wasilla, but now she is in the public spotlight and running for Vice President. She also strikes me as an attractive woman who cares about her appearance and probably likes to dress and look her best. The campaign obviously wants her to look her best for the media and is spending accordingly. They can afford to do it, so why wouldn’t they?
There are twelve days of campaigning left before we go to the polls. Surely there are better things for us to spend our time on.
I tend myself to believe that the Main Stream Media is in full bore smear mode at this point. I mean, how much more in the tank can you be? It just seems that they are, in fact, ignoring the stupidity that has emanated from the “Barry” campaign and has instead hyper-focused on the McCain Campaign.
Further more, contrary to what that Marxist Liberal apologist Keith Olbermann thinks, the media does sway the polls. It is no secret that the McCain campaign was in the lead. This lead was totally destroyed after the Marxist-owned and controlled Main Stream Media began to drudge up tidbits, gossip and some outright slander against McCain. Some of it was somewhat deserved, some of it was concerted effort by the media to bring John McCain down in the polls. Not to mention the actions of the notorious Liberal 527 groups who have smeared McCain since he was named the Republican Candidate.
To conclude this rather long piece, let me simply say this. America is headed for a big change. Some possibly for the good, but many of it for the bad, freedom of speech will be suppressed, Conservatives will be brought up on hate speech charges. Churches will be closed, who do not preach approved messages. Our worst nightmare is coming, and there’s not much, at this point that Conservatives can do, except wait. Violence is NOT, I repeat, NOT the answer. You do not hear that much from Conservative Bloggers. The answer is to stay active, write much, keep the Conservative movement alive. We must work, and wait, wait for America to wake up and realize that they’ve been tricked into believing in a slick talking Chicago politician.
This is, and will be the function of this Blog. To bring an libertarian conservative view to the political scene. To express my opinion of what is happening in Washington D.C. Until the Day Star Arises.

RNC Spends $150K to make Sarah Palin look good
Sorry gang, got a late start today. Slept till noon. 
I needed to catch up. Didn’t get much sleep the last few days. Because Dad was in the hospital. So, I’m a little sluggish today. 
—–
The big story today is that the RNC spent $150K on wardrobe and make up on Sarah Palin and some within the Republican Party are not happy about it.
The reactions are mixed:
Michelle Malkin says “Heckuva job, RNC”
John McCormack at the Weekly Standard wants to know “How much is Hillary Clinton’s Wardrobe worth?
Don Surber says it was money well spent and based on some of these, well, interesting photos of her, I think he’s correct. 
Ann Althouse wants to know if it is legal or not.
My Take: At this point, I do not think that this will all matter at all. Considering how John McCain is doing in the polls. I believe that this is a distraction generated by the Liberal media to cover up for the huge gaffes made by Joe Biden.
Further more, I believe it is a distraction to focus away from the real facts about Barack Obama. In fact Ed over at Hotair.com and a few of his friends, have made up a very good case against Barack Obama. I suggest that you read it before voting.
The Sad truth about Sarah Palin
My Mom, of all people, sent me this… I think it speaks the truth myself.
This comes from Brasscheck TV:
…and if the polls are any indication, The public is quite informed about her too.
I think we’re about to see four to eight years of solid Liberal rule in this country.
Thank You Mr. Bush for royally fucking your Political Party, Conservatism and yes, Libertarianism squarely in the ass. You beedy-eyed fuck.
Needless to say, this election is going to be historic.
