New Video: Vets for freedom Ad to air in California

This ad is to Air in California:

Text from the Site:

Today Vets for Freedom released “Skipped” as part of a continuing campaign to urge Senator Obama to tell the Truth about the Surge and fully acknowledge U.S. success in Iraq. The $2.2 million dollar statewide television advertising campaign is VFF’s largest expenditure in a single state buy thus far on this issue. The ad will air in California on October 1st and run through October 9th.


Senator Obama repeatedly denies that the surge worked, contradicting reports from top commanders on the ground in Iraq, yet has only been to Iraq twice and has missed countless votes regarding the mission. VFF released “Skipped” to underscore Senator Obama’s failure to be informed of the situation in Iraq and Afghanistan in order to ask him, and Congress, to support passage of legislation in the U.S. Senate that recognizes the success of the surge and our troops

Click here to read Sen. Obama’s previous statements about the surge.

I just wonder if the “Magic one” will try and employ his goon squads to silence these commercials too? Oh, I forgot this discussion is not helping Michelle Obama’s brat kids.

I guess I’ll let that little nugget out of the bag. A few days ago, I received an e-mail from a source, which I will never reveal, letting me know, that I, as a Blogger, should not buy the lie that Obama’s two girls are darling children. The truth is, both of those girls are nothing more than snotty nosed little harpy brats. In fact, one reporter tried “Correcting” them for something they did and the Obama campaign threatened to have that person tossed off the plane. So, a word to the wise. Don’t believe everything read about this man and his family.

Shocka! The Media is in the tank for Obama!!!!

Well, Maybe not…. (On the shock, that is….)

Instapundit.com:

A READER AT A MAJOR NEWSROOM EMAILS: “Off the record, every suspicion you have about MSM being in the tank for O is true. We have a team of 4 people going thru dumpsters in Alaska and 4 in arizona. Not a single one looking into Acorn, Ayers or Freddiemae. Editor refuses to publish anything that would jeopardize election for O, and betting you dollars to donuts same is true at NYT, others. People cheer when CNN or NBC run another Palin-mocking but raising any reasonable inquiry into obama is derided or flat out ignored. The fix is in, and its working.” I asked permission to reprint without attribution and it was granted.

I take it that I am supposed to be shocked and surprised? Hardly. Considering what has taken place in the past 8 years with this Presidential Administration, I am surprised that the Liberal Media has not trotted out some person claiming that McCain molested them, when they were a kid or something obscene of that effect.

Before anyone gives me any static, I’ll be the first to admit, I am not, nor have I ever been a Bush fan, at all. No, I don’t suffer from BDS. But his spending like a drunken Sailor and big government horseshit, just does not appeal to this Libertarian Conservative, and I’ll be happy to tell someone who has a problem with that, to go jump in the lake.

One was enough, Thank you very much….

Via WDIV Detroit: (and Confirmed in the Detroit News)

DETROIT, Mich. — This February Detroiters may see a familiar name on the special primary election ballot.Coleman A. Young Jr. wants to follow his famous father’s footsteps, and run for Detroit mayor.He is the son of late Mayor Coleman A. Young Sr., who was Detroit’s first black mayor, and served from 1974 to 1993.

Young Jr. turns 26 in October, and if elected he would be the youngest mayor in Detroit’s history. He vows to continue his father’s legacy of being the “People’s Champion.

“Young Jr. is a state representative in the 4th District of the House.He moved back to Detroit in 2005 after spending several years on the East Coast, doing some acting.

The Good Lord above knows that the last thing that Detroit needs is another Coleman Young running Detroit. Democrat Coleman Young’s corruption is stuff of legend. I know, I’ve lived in the Detroit area, all my life. I lived in Detroit for 19 years of my life. I saw Coleman Young’s way of running a city. One word sums it up: Disaster.

Quoting the Detroit News:

But critics like political consultant Adolph Mongo say Young is not ready for prime time and should take more time to learn.

“I worked for his father. I knew Coleman Young,” Mongo said. “And he’s no Coleman Young. Coleman Young had a lifetime of dealing with politicians
and social issues. He needs to sit down somewhere and get some experience.”

[…]

Bill Ballenger, editor of the newsletter Inside Michigan Politics, said Young “might do a lot better than a lot of people think” in a
mayoral race.

“He has some of his father’s pizzazz,” Ballenger said Monday. “I wouldn’t underestimate him, but I wouldn’t tap him as  the favorite, either.”

I can almost see it now. The man loses and what does he do? Pull the race card. But then again, we are talking about Democrat’s they do the identity politics thing, very well.

Please, anyone, but him. 🙄

Amazing: WorldNetDaily proves Barack Obama right!

Amazing

Of course, other Blogs like Hotair and Macsmind will say, "Oh, WND cannot be trusted."

Kudo’s to Farah for getting this story.

What I am referring to is, that Barack Obama is constantly said, and even said during the debate that Al-Qaeda is back to pre-9/11 status and strength. Which McCain and other Neo-Cons Deny.

The Wall Street Bailout drama continues….

Just a word of warning, I’m still nursing my first cup of coffee. Coffee-cupSleepyYawn So, hopefully, this article will make some sense. Hee hee

But the good news is, I got my emoticons back here. Dancing So, I can at least show a little emotion in my writings. Big Grin

Some people say that if you use the Emoticons, people tend to not take you as serious. Well, to that I say, well, Phbbbttt Because I feel you would not take me serious either way, if had the emoticons or not.

The “Mother of all bailouts” is creating it’s share of drama in the Blogosphere and on Capital Hill. For instance, Minority Leader John A. Boehner called the deal a “crap sandwich”. Sick and Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wisc., ranking Republican on the House Budget Committee said of the Bill, “It sucks”. Michelle Malkin is just flat out encouraging her people to “Kill the Bill”. However, Jack Fowler at the Corner is saying:

Conservatives should support them in backing the bailout plan. And then, when that is completed, roll up our sleeves and join Cantor & Co. as they work to craft and enact a broader strategy to improve America’s fiscal health.

So, obviously, this thing is dividing Conservatives.

Another interesting tidbit of information, according to “The Hill”, Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio). says:  “I will tell you right now I don’t know if they have votes,”  “If the votes were there, this would be on the floor. The votes aren’t there.” An interesting development indeed.

Obviously, there’s a ton of opinions and angles on this story. Most of which can be found at Memeorandum.

A very interesting video on our Nation’s banking system

This video, made by the Ludwig Von Mises Institute, makes the case of why the United States of America should go to a 100% gold standard.

I highly recommend that everyone watch this video.

Also, I recommend everyone go to my bookstore and check out the section on the gold standard.

My Thoughts on the 1st Debate

Obama was well prepared. Articulated his points very well. McCain was snobbish and a bit of an asshole.

However, McCain did well as well. There were no gaffes that I really thought were worth mentioning.

Because I am not in the tank for either, I say it was a draw.

I’ve been up past my bedtime and now am going to bed.

Oy: Netroots Smear possibly traced back to Obama?

It seems so…. The guys over at The Jawa Report have been doing some digging, with friends of theirs and the results are startling.

The Points being made are:

  • Evidence suggests that a YouTube video with false claims about
    Palin was uploaded and promoted by members of a professional PR firm.
  • The family that runs the PR firm has extensive ties to the Democratic Party, the netroots, and are staunch Obama supporters.
  • Evidence suggests that the firm engaged in a concerted effort
    to distribute the video in such a way that it would appear to have gone
    viral on its own. Yet this effort took place on company time.
  • Evidence suggests that these distribution efforts included
    actions by at least one employee of the firm who is unconnected with
    the family running the company.
  • The voice-over artist used in this supposedly amateur video is a professional.
  • This same voice-over artist has worked extensively with David
    Axelrod’s firm, which has a history of engaging in phony grassroots
    efforts, otherwise known as “astroturfing.”
  • David Axelrod is Barack Obama’s chief media strategist.
  • The same voice-over artist has worked directly for the Barack Obama campaign.

While some of these points could possibly be argued, if there is any truth to this. Obama might be looking at some serious problems here.

Memeorandum has more reactions.

FBI meets with suspected hacker

Remember the hacker kid that I warned everyone against publishing his picture

Well, it seems the FBI has caught up with him.

The Report via WBIR:

Quote:

The FBI is stepping up its investigation into the possibility that a University of Tennessee student hacked into the personal e-mail of Vice
Presidential candidate Sarah Palin.

A person who identified himself as a witness tells 10 News that agents with the FBI served a federal search warrant at the Fort Sanders residence of David Kernell early Sunday morning. Kernell lives in the Commons apartment complex at 1115 Highland Ave.

David Kernell is the son of Mike Kernell, a Democratic state representative from Memphis.

A Department of Justice spokesperson confirmed there has been “investigatory activity” in Knoxville regarding the Palin case, but she said there are no publicly available search warrants, and no charges have been filed.

A separate law enforcement source confirmed to 10 News that a search warrant was served on Kernell’s apartment.

According to the witness, several agents arrived at The Commons of Knoxville around midnight.

They presented their badges upon entering Kernell’s apartment, where several students were having a party, and took down their names.

The witness tells us they asked him and those who did not live in the unit to go outside. He believes the investigators took about 1.5 to 2 hours taking pictures of everything inside the apartment.

He says Kernell’s three roommates were also subpoenaed, and must testify this week (Tuesday) in Chattanooga.

It could mean quite a bit, and at the same time, it would mean nothing. But I would think with subpoenas and all, someone is in some serious trouble.

I’m still not publishing his picture. 😀

Oy! – Communist Liberal New York Times Asks: “What Should Be Done with the 9/11 Hijackers’ Remains?”

You are not going to believe this one. I even cannot believe it.

It is stories like this right here, that convince me, that the New York Times is nothing more than a front for the Communist Party of the United States.

It seems that we have the remains of 13 of the 19 men, who slammed the planes in to the World Trade Center Towers, the Pentagon and into that field in Pennsylvania. Now, it seems, that the New York Times is fretting about what should become of the remains of these monsters who carried out the attacks, of September 11, 2001.  The attacks that killed 2,999 and injured 6,291 or more.

Quoting the Communists:

Seven years after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, the remains of 13 of the 19 men responsible have been identified and are in the custody of the F.B.I. and the New York City medical examiner’s office.

But no one has formally requested the remains in order to bury them.

"Politically, one can understand that this is a hot potato," said Muneer Fareed, secretary general of the Islamic Society of North America and a former professor of Islamic studies. "People don’t want to identify with the political equivalent of Jeffrey Dahmer."

What would happen if someone asked for the hijackers’ remains is not clear.

Neither the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which holds the remains of the nine hijackers whose planes hit the Pentagon and crashed in a field in Somerset County, Pa., nor the New York City medical examiner’s office, which holds the remains of 4 of the 10 hijackers who flew planes into the World Trade Center buildings, has policies to deal with such a request.

"If and when it comes up, we’ll address it then," an F.B.I. spokesman, Richard Kolko, said.

The bureau could turn down such requests, Mr. Kolko said, because the Sept. 11 investigation is an open case.

The medical examiner’s office, which, like the F.B.I., refuses to say where exactly the remains are being kept, will eventually put together a committee to come up with a policy, said Ellen Borakove, a spokeswoman for the office.

Groups representing the victims of Sept. 11 are not sure what should be done with the remains.

"It would be sadly ironic if they ended up being properly buried or sent to a Muslim country when many of the remains of the victims remain buried in a garbage dump," said Kurt Horning, a founder with his wife, Diane, of the group WTC Families for Proper Burial. "I know we’d feel very distressed."

The Hornings’ son, Matthew, 26, was working at the World Trade Center and died there on Sept. 11. Their group has been advocating for excavation of the Fresh Kills landfill on Staten Island where ash and other debris from the World Trade Center site was buried. The group believes the debris may contain identifiable remains.

The identified remains of the victims of Sept. 11 are regularly returned to their families upon request, after officials have made positive identifications.

Some of the users at Right Wing News have some ideas.

What really tweaks me off about this is, why in the hell would a major newspaper such as the New York Times, even have the audacity to even ask a question like this in public newspaper?

I mean, has The New York Times utterly forgotten the horror and shock felt on the morning that the terrorist attacks were carried out in this country? You know, I have accused the far left of being nothing more than terrorist sympathizers, but this just proves it more than I could ever imagine.

As I have said on this Blog many times before, almost to the point where it has become somewhat of a talking point. Do you now see why I left that side of the damned political isle?

I am sorry, but any damned political party that believes, that terrorists have the same standing in the World, as the rest of law abiding Americans, is, as far as I am concerned nothing more than pure Anti-American. The people that carried out the September 11 attacks on this country were not humans, they were utter animals, possessed by a satanic religion that teaches that it is, if I can dare to be so blunt to even use the word; godly to kill people to further a mindless purpose in a religion. 

There is a ton more I could write about this, as to my feelings about Islam. But for one, I do not what to be pegged as a hatemonger and two, this entry would be like 4 pages long. Instead, I’ll just refer you to my bookstore, where I have a section to Islam and the hatred behind it. Click here to go check it out. I am also thinking of adding a section about 9/11, It will be added in the near future.

Detroit Democratic Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick’s final statement to Detroit

This comes via The Detroit Free Press:

“Being elected Mayor of Detroit, my hometown, was an honor and a privilege,” he said. “I want to thank everyone who supported me through the years. I am proud of the fact that we, as a community, were able to accomplish so much in such a short period of time.”

Kilpatrick, who leaves office at 11:59 p.m. tonight, said transition meetings with incoming Mayor Ken Cockrel Jr. concluded Wednesday.

“We believe he now has all the information needed for a smooth transition,” he said. “I wish Ken Cockrel Jr. the best of luck. I encourage the citizens of Detroit to lend your support to him as he assumes the role of our city’s Interim Mayor. He will need your support because the job of Mayor requires making the tough but not always popular decisions in order to advance our city. Thank you for the honor of serving you. God bless Detroit.”

Having shared that, I’d like to share a freakin’ hilarious Animated Cartoon by Detroit Free Press Cartoonist Mike Thompson. Click the picture and be prepared to laugh, hard.

Editorial: Sometimes acting like Michelle Malkin is a good thing

I sit here tonight, as a former “left of center” Blogger, amazed at what has become of the party, that I once used to just blindly vote for every year.  I fully understand what Ronald Reagan was referring to, when he quoted Al Smith in his 1964 speech called “Rendezvous with Destiny.”  It just seems to me that the Liberals in this country of ours, instead of listening to the other side of the political fence and possibly learning from them, are more interested in mocking them and living in their own altered state of reality. Conversely, I have been told that this is nothing new, Democrats have been doing this for years.

Earlier tonight, I was over looking around on a well-known liberal Blog called Crooks and Liars, which, for those of you who are not normally of the Blogging community is a rather humorous reference to former President Richard M. Nixon’s statement of, “I am not a crook.” John Amato, A liberal from California, runs that rather interesting Blog.  Earlier tonight, John made a rather flippant comment that burned me to my core, and as a result, I felt the need to write about it, and the person, of whom he was referring.

John Amato was reporting on a Conservative Radio host from Alaska, who rather idiotically, made some rather nasty comments about some women holding a Anti-Sarah Palin rally in Alaska, and also about him giving their personal cell phone numbers out, whereby causing some of them to receive threats.  The host was suspended a week, without pay, which I feel was ample punishment.  To be fair to the Host, he was not aware that the numbers given out were personal cell phone numbers.

It was not the reporting of the incident that annoyed me to my core, it was the rather offhanded, mean spirited comment that was attached to the reporting of that story, that warranted this Editorial.  The comment that sent me over the rails, the comment, that I feel, was a shot over the bow of a rather highly intelligent woman, who I feel is unique spokesperson for American Conservative values in this Country.

“Acting like Michelle Malkin does have some consequences after all.”

That, Mr. Amato, is over the line.  I will explain why. However, I do not expect you, being locked into your bastardly Liberal mindset, to understand why I feel so damned strongly about this. Nevertheless, I will try to make your rather simple liberal mind understand the questions I am about to ask you.  I realize it might be a crab shoot with you, but I am in need of a challenge this evening and you are the target of interest.

  1. Do you believe that Michelle Malkin’s due diligence in reporting on the war on terror is a hateful thing?  I would expect so, seeing most of you liberals believe that we should try to talk to people who want to see this Nation and everything it stands for destroyed.
  2. I suppose that you believe that Michelle Malkin’s reporting of the vandalism that happened to the Vietnam vets war memorial in Washington D.C. is a hateful thing as well?  This would not surprise me.  Seeing it is you liberals, who hate our military, to the point of wanting America to lose a war and return home in disgrace.  Vietnam proved that sir.
  3. I suppose you would disapprove of Michelle Malkin’s resolve to “Lan Astaslem” which is Arabic for “I will not submit/surrender?”  This is a pledge that we as Americans will not submit or surrender to Islamic extremists who want to strike fear into the American people and ruin our livelihoods, something that I also believe in, to my very core.  I say this because it is you and your Liberal friends wish to appease those who want to destroy this Nation.

Yes, Michelle Malkin and I do have our differences.  Her brand of Conservatism is a bit different from mine.  I do not agree with every thing that she writes.  I am not a “Malkin-bot,” a funny term that I gave to some of her supporters, who tend to be, what I and Andrew P. Napolitano like to call sheep. However, that is about where the differences end.  When it comes to matters of National Defense and Defending our Military against those who would like to see it destroyed, including brain-dead liberals like you, Ted Kennedy, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid.  I am, in fact, in agreement with her on these issues.

In closing, let me simply say this.  The Democrats talk about change.  Well, this year is going to be a major change for me as well.  For the first time, since I have legally eligible to vote, I will be not voting for a Democrat.  This is because the party that I used to just blindly vote for, in every election has totally drifted beyond the point that I feel to be acceptable in American politics.  I am sorry, but I cannot and will not vote for a Party’s candidate, whose politics resemble that of Karl Marx or that of the Nazi Party.  Furthermore, I will not vote for a candidate whose party abdicated its core principles in the Primary and at the convention, just so they could hurry up and get their nominee.

This is to say nothing of the communist socialist agenda,  the wholesale slaughter of innocent babies, the outright attack of the Judeo-Christian Faith, The Promotion and advocating of the Atheistic movement and the furtherance of the Homosexual agenda, the promoting of Identity Politics within the African-American community, in response to a perceived and mostly falsely assumed attack on the Negro Race.

All of these things are why this Blogger will be voting differently on November 4, 2008.

My thoughts on the AIG bailout…

First Fannie May and Freddie Mack and now AIG.

It just seems to me that more and more everyday. The United States of America is starting to resemble the old Soviet Union, with everything being nationalized.

I just wonder how long will it be, before the oil refineries will be nationalized.  

We fought long and hard in Germany and in Japan to defeat communism. Now it seems to be taking our Country over from within.

I would write, God help this Nation. But at this point, that seems a bit moot. Seeing this Nation with it’s liberal Government wanting to eradicate everything and anything even remotely Christian. I am left with nothing to say except to offer the thought that God has forsaken this Nation long ago and has left it to be consumed from within.

Stupid Local Story of the day: Crowd prays to heal Detroit’s economy

Via The Detroit News:

Nearly 1,000 believers of all faiths descended on Hart Plaza Sunday to pray for healing and economic prosperity for the city of Detroit and the region.

Organizers from Warren’s Renaissance Unity mega-church titled the event “I lift Detroit in Prayer,” and distributed bright yellow bumper stickers with that message. The interfaith ceremony attracted members of the Jewish, Islamic, Christian and other faiths, as well as a mix of Detroiters and suburbanites.

“I am focusing on the economy of the Metro Detroit area,” said Jaime Nix, 58, of Warren. “We’re all in this together.”

The crowd sang “Amazing Grace” and many lifted their hands in prayer. Later, they were invited to scrawl prayers or positive affirmations in 48 journals positioned around the event.

At a time when the sign on the plaza’s kiosk still reads “Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick Welcomes You to Detroit,” many said they were there to pray for healing in the wake of the scandals that prompted the resignation of the former mayor.

“Detroit needs prayers, the way it’s been lately,” said Shannon Carrier, 37, of Roseville. “It’s been the mayor, the economy, unemployment … the list just goes on and on.”

Nancy Salder, 69, of St. Clair Shores, wrote a message of hope in one of the bright yellow books.

“I wrote ‘Thank you God for the transformation that’s already going on,'” Salder said. “We already have a new mayor. This is going to open up all the energy, and get Detroit back.”

While they’re praying, they ought to be praying for all those corrupt Democrats that brought all the troubles on the City of Detroit. Of course, the most corrupt one, Coleman A. Young, is already in hell. So, no amount of praying will help him.

While they are at it, pray for the corrupt unions that broke the Auto industry with their insane greed and collective bargaining to the point to breaking the Auto Companies and keeping them from turning profits.

Idiotic Liberals, you just have to love them, or you’d go crazy!

Our local economy is broken, let’s cry to the Gods! 😆 🙄

Bad Acorn voter applications found here in Michigan….

Stories like this burn my boots. 😡 

The Story Via The Detroit Free Press:

Several municipal clerks across the state are reporting fraudulent and duplicate voter registration applications, most of them from a nationwide community activist group working to help low- and moderate-income families.

The majority of the problem applications are coming from the group ACORN, Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, which has a large voter registration program among its many social service programs. ACORN’s Michigan branch, based in Detroit, has enrolled 200,000 voters statewide in recent months, mostly with the use of paid, part-time employees.

“There appears to be a sizeable number of duplicate and fraudulent applications,” said Kelly Chesney, spokeswoman for the Michigan Secretary of State’s Office. “And it appears to be widespread.”

Chesney said her office has had discussions with ACORN officials after local clerks reported the questionable applications to the state. Chesney said some of the applications are duplicates and some appear to be names that have been made up. The Secretary of State’s Office has turned over several of the applications to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office on Friday declined to confirm whether an investigation was taking place.

In recent years, ACORN’s voter registration programs have come under investigation in Ohio, Colorado, Missouri and Washington, with some employees convicted of voter fraud.

ACORN officials said they were looking into the problem.

The reason why this bothers me so much is this; the good majority of the people in the state of Michigan, are hard working honest people that just want to exercise their constitutional right to vote in this election. Not everyone here is a corrupt Liberal who wants to milk the Government for every damn last dime and nickel it can.

It’s stories like this make the rest of us look bad. 😡

A possible dicey day on Wall St.

I knew about the problems that were happening over on Wall Street and in the banking world. I was just unaware of just how bad it is.

It turns out, that it is really bad. I mean, really seriously bad!

The Wall Street has a great Video and Story up over on their site.

Here’s the Video:

Quote from WSJ:

The American financial system was shaken to its core on Sunday. Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. said it would file for bankruptcy protection, and Merrill Lynch & Co. agreed to be sold to Bank of America Corp.

The U.S. government, which bailed out Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac a week ago and orchestrated the sale of Bear Stearns Cos. to J.P. Morgan Chase & Co. in March, played much tougher with Lehman. It refused to provide a financial backstop to potential buyers. Without such support, Barclays PLC and Bank of America, the two most interested buyers, walked away. Barclays said Monday it pulled out of the potential deal after deciding it wasn’t in the best interest of shareholders.

Late Sunday night, Lehman said it intends to file for protection under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York. Lehman said none of the broker-dealer subsidiaries or other subsidiaries of LBHI will be included in the Chapter 11 filing and all of the broker-dealers will continue to operate. Customers of Lehman Brothers, including customers of its wholly owned subsidiary, Neuberger Berman Holdings LLC, may continue to trade or take other actions with respect to their accounts, Lehman said.

On Sunday night, Bank of America struck an all-stock deal to buy Merrill Lynch for $29 a share, or $50 billion.

Though it steered clear of a bailout, the Federal Reserve is expected to take new steps to stabilize the broader financial system. These steps, expected to be temporary, would make it easier for banks and securities firms to borrow from the central bank by using a wider range of collateral. Bankers say these financial institutions might need short-term funds as they unwind their many trading positions with Lehman.

While I do not have anything invested on Wall Street, I know people who do, in fact, my parents have stock options in G.M. So, this may just affect them. I will be watching this story all day today. This Blog is mainly politics, but I also Blog about other news stories of interest. Anyhow, this could trigger panic selling everywhere and could trigger a massive crash of the stock market, rivaling the crash of the 1930’s or at least rivaling the mini-crash of the 1980’s.

I do realize that the FDR did put some protection in our bank system to prevent another major crash, as to just good those protections are, we will see I suppose. I do not claim to be a banking nor financial expert. But I can see the panic in the eyes of those men that made that video. So, I expect a horrible day on the stock market.

Of course, our communist liberals, especially the far left with their anti-capitalist mentality, will be cheering this little misfortune. I’m sure that B. Hussein Obama will be saying stuff like, “They deserve to be punished, for making the little people suffer!” and “It was George W. Bush’s fault that the stock market crashed!”

On the other hand, John McCain will most likely make some rather stupid comment and then blame his time as a P.O.W. on his idiotic gaffe. Like he always does. 🙄

Either way, this story is going to be interesting to follow. Stay tuned. 

Update: Michelle Malkin says “The Fit has hit the shanIndeed. But she also says:

And now is the time where I get to say, “See, I told you so.” From March 17, 2008, as the Bear Stearns bailout was underway:

I warned from the start of stimulus-palooza that we were headed in this direction. Both political parties support these massive government interventions–from empowering judges to meddle with private contracts to backing billions in mortgage securities. This isn’t the last step. It’s the first. And you know who will end up getting screwed: The responsible and the frugal.

True Michelle, But don’t you think that Mr. “Nation of whiners“, has to share some of the blame, because of his lobbying for the deregulation of the housing industry? Which caused all of this in the first place? I think so. What is really known, is the fact that it is going to get a hell of lot worse, before it gets any better. *gulp!*

Powerful Video

I do wonder if the Obama campaign has seen this or not.

(H/T to Blogwonks)

…..However, I will be fair enough to point out the mistakes.

The Bush Administration admitted that the intelligence that the Bush Administration had, in the leading up to the war, was flat out wrong. Not to mention the “Cherry picking” and stifling of evidence and contrary opinion that surfaced during the lead up the war. Which, in the opinion of this writer, is nothing more than abject fascism.

While I am smart enough to know that this video was not made by the McCain campaign. It does ring at the certain heart string of the American people. However, factually this video falls on it’s face. I agree that the men and women who died in this war, did so believing that they were doing the right thing. However, it does not excuse the fact that mistakes were made. Further more, this video comes across as using our United States Military as some sort of political prop. Which I feel is absolutely sickening.

While this video may be powerful in image and in message. I believe it is a brazen attempt to smear Obama as unpatriotic and inferring that Obama hates our Military persons. That, I am afraid is a bogus lie. I assure you, that if Obama was as nearly as uncaring of our Military personnel as this video infers, he would not even be in the race at all. Because middle America would have never elected him the early primary, if he would have come off as uncaring towards our Military in the primary.

I just do not believe that people are going to buy the subtle message being inferred in this ad, at all. Perhaps in 2004, or even in 2000. But not this time. The country has shifted too much to the left. This because of the many scandals, missteps, and outright blunders by the Government in the last 8 years.

NYT does a “hit piece” on Sarah Palin

I knew it was coming, I just didn’t know when. It seems that the New York Times has done rather harsh piece on Sarah Palin.

I won’t bother quoting it over here. Because I think one needs to read the whole thing, in order to render a proper judgement. Of course, depending on where one’s political ideology resides, will determine what one will take away from the article. This is very common, and not anything new.

Of course, the reaction is pretty much predictable, The Left is treating it as Gospel and the Right is calling for the public execution of the writers. Me, I think if the Wall Street Journal had written this article, it would be treated as gospel, by the right. They have written some similar toned articles.

The reactions are varied, I’ll post them all here. You make your own decisions: Commentary Magazine, Firedoglake, The Corner, unbossed.com, Shakesville, RADAMISTO, The Anonymous Liberal, TIME.com, Talking Points Memo, Liberal Values, Ben Smith’s Blogs, Jonathan Martin’s Blogs, TPM Election Central, Daily Kos, The Daily Dish, The Agonist, TigerHawk, Macsmind, pandagon.net, The Reaction, The Right Coast

Once Again, I must instruct Liberals on what is racist and what is not….

*rolls out the blackboard*

mr_magoo

Alright class, today we will, once again, review as to what is racist and what is not.

Ready? Good!

THIS is Racist!:

Video: Unknown

Music: Johnny Rebel

This is NOT:

waffles_phixr

The Back story is Here.

This is called Political Satire. It is funny, that is what Political Satire does, make one laugh. It is commonly found in Political Cartoons. The only people that would find this sort of a thing, even remotely offensive, would be those who are commonly referred to as race baiters or race hustlers, or for short, Al Sharpton.

That is all….

Class Dismissed!

Far Lefty loon talk radio host Randi Rhoads jumps the shark……again…….

(Via and a very big H/T to Captain Ed over at HotAir.com)

Here we go again! It seems that the far-lefty loon talk show radio host Randi Rhodes has once again jumped the shark.

On September 8, 2008, Rhodes claimed that Presidential Candidate John McCain received preferential treatment in Vietnam, when he was taken captive.

Now it seems, that she has her eyes on Sarah Palin, something that does not surprise this writer at all, seeing that she divorced her husband. and is suspected of being a closet lesbian.

Now, Rhodes is accusing Sarah Palin of sleeping with teenage boys.

The Video:

The Transcript:

RHODES (HOUR TWO — 47:59): She’s the woman who shows up at the kid’s birthday party and starts opining about everything from politics to lawn care. This is the woman that knows it all. Will shout you down, will get revenge on you. That’s who she is.

She’s friends with all the teenage boys. You have to say no when your kids say, ‘can we sleep over at the Palin’s? No! NO!’

This is the same Randi Rhodes, who is known for her unhinged skits, public spills, obscene rants and wild accusations.

This is the same sweat hog, who was FIRED from Air America for calling Hillary Clinton and Geraldine Ferraro both “Big f******ing whores”. She claims that she quit, after she was suspended, but anyone with the half a brain knows that’s a big fat lie. Not that it matters, but I happen to know personally, that there are those in the Liberal/Progressive community that do not like this woman, at all. I would show you the comments left about her over at Crooks & Liars after her firing from Air America, but they have since been closed. However, I can show you comments from DailyKos, by those who do not like her at all.

It was been said, over at DailyKos and on other progressive and far lefty liberal Blogs that Randi Rhodes is viewed as the far left’s answer to Michelle Malkin and Rush Limbaugh. Although, I would be willing to bet that fans of theirs would take issue with that assessment.

As I have said many, many, many, times over on this Blog. Do you see now why I left that side of the political fence? Ronald Reagan had it absolutely right when he gave that speech in 1964. Man did he ever.
