Dr. Ron Paul’s Speech to the Virginia Tea Party

Posted on

(H/T The Daily Paul)

This is from October 9, 2010.

Just a couple bones of contention with the above:

  • Paul’s assertion that unborn life should be protected by the Federal Government is absurd. I do not believe that the Federal Government has the right or the obligation to protect much of anything at all; except those things outlined in the United States Constitution — nothing more, nothing less. What Dr. Paul is doing here is repeating the nonsense of the Christian Right. Which is, as far as this writer is concerned, pure rubbish. If people believe the practice of Abortion is such a horrific thing, let them rise up and organize, and challenge the STATES to outlaw the practice of abortion.  Keep the Federal Government out of the business of the people’s bodies.
  • Paul’s idea that we should eliminate all Government programs like Social Security, is unrealistic; and it would hurt people — like my parents, who paid into the program for years. Does Ron Paul want to harm my parents? I would hope not.
  • Paul’s idea of trust and friendship with all Countries is naive at best. The inconvenient truth is that there are Countries and Regimes out there that want nothing more, than for the United States of America to be utterly and totally destroyed.  Even China is now worrying the Military leaders, as there seems to be those within the Chinese Military who see the United States as an enemy. This should worry many Americans, as we do borrow large amounts of money from this Country. Let us also not forget what happened to John Birch in that Country as well. There is also the terrorism argument as well; but I am fully aware that much of that, is due to our foreign policy decisions of the past. However, for us to foolishly assume that if we tell Islamic terrorists that we do not wish to harm them, that they will not attack us again, would be an exercise in extreme stupidity.
  • As a Paleo-Conservative type; I disagree with Ron Paul’s idea of unfettered Capitalism, AKA Globalism. I believe that globalism has hurt this Country, namely the economy here in the Detroit, Michigan area. TAFTA, NAFTA and all the rest of these idiotic free trade agreements should be repealed and heavy tariffs should be imposed on anyone that wishes to manufacture product outside of the United States of America and import it into this Country.

All of the rest, I pretty much agree with, especially when it comes to fiscal policy and the federal reserve.

A few words about Vice President Dick Cheney

Posted on

I will be the first to admit it; I did not agree with the Bush Administration’s decision to go to war in Iraq.  Furthermore, I did not vote for this man or his boss either time.  However, because I am a decent human being, because I am a Christian and possibly, because I am just an old damned softhearted fool —- my heart sunk, when I saw this photo published in the New York Daily News:

Richard Bruce “Dick” Cheney, who was born in 1941, is a controversial figure, no matter how you slice it.  Whether liberals want to admit it or not, Dick Cheney made some decisions that most likely pulled our butts out of the fire on 9/11. The hours after the attack on 9/11, Dick Cheney, along with George W. Bush, were there, leading this Country after 9/11.  For that, this man has my respect.  I mean, could you honestly see Barack Obama in the same position?  It sends chills up my spine, just thinking about that.

One of my biggest issues, as evidenced by the ignorant comments over that the New York Daily News site, is that the far left in this Country could never, or would never, make a distinction between the policy and the person making the policy.  I readily admit to being one of those idiots who did the very same thing.  As much as I disagreed with the policies of George W. Bush, and yes, Dick Cheney — I would never wish of them either harm or even poor health.

Reading those comments over at the New York Daily News site, which I would never print here, not for a million dollars in cash; further reinforces my belief that America is in a state of horrific decline —  A decline of social, Spiritual, and personal aspects. Example: Could you honestly see anyone publicly making those awful comments about a former Vice President in the 50’s — or even 60’s? I could not. Again, it points to an awful decline in our society and to a lack of Spiritual involvement in the lives of the people, as America had back in the 1940’s.  It is something missing badly in this Country; and it will eventually cause this destruction of this Country — A destruction that is foretold in the Holy Scriptures of old.

In conclusion, let me simply say this: Dick Cheney:  I wish you good health and great comfort sir, in your final years.  I thank you for your service to your Country and I wish you good favor with the creator of all humankind.

Movie: The Soviet Story

Posted on

This Movie Comes via The Liberty News Network:

Let me also say this; for all of  things that I dislike about President Barack Obama, he has done nothing to make me personally believe that he is at the level of the awful that is presented in the film. There are those who believe, that were are nearing Soviet style communism. Sorry, I remain unconvinced of that just yet. However, I will tell you, that I remain distrusting of BOTH of these political parties, as they have been overran with special interest and corruption. Anyone that believes that the Republican Party is perfect, is one, naive or insane.

Enjoy the movie and remember what you watch here, as it is said — those who do not learn from history, is doomed to repeat it.

This posting is dedicated to the lives lost, during the oppressive regime that is covered in this movie.

Man streaks in front of Obama

Posted on

First a little music:

It seems someone got naked in front of Obama.

The Daily Mail in the UK reports

This is the astonishing moment a book was apparently hurled at the head of U.S. President Barack Obama during a campaign rally in Philadelphia.

The flying missile narrowly missed hitting the President yesterday.

It is not clear what the book was, where it came from in the crowd, or why it was thrown at Mr Obama – who did not appear to notice the danger.

However, The Weekly Standard has the story:

If billionaire Alki David is an honest man, the man who streaked in front of Barack Obama at the president’s rally today in Philadelphia will be paid $1 million for his stunt. The man who performed today’s stunt, which captured the attention of the Drudge Report and an Associated Press photographer, is 24-year-old Juan James Rodriguez, THE WEEKLY STANDARD has learned.

David is a billionaire shipping and bottling magnate who is known to carry out stunts, mainly by paying others to perform them. As the The Sun reported on August 17: “A WACKY billionaire has offered $1million (£638,700) to the first person who streaks in front of US President Barack Obama. Loaded Alki David has promised to pay out the cash — providing the streaker writes the name of his website ‘Battlecam’ across their chest.”

“When I see the video and it’s confirmed…it won’t be check [that he sends], it will be cash,” David, reached by phone tonight, told THE WEEKLY STANDARD.

The requirements of the streaking stunt, David told me, are that the streaker must have been within “eye-shot and ear shot of the president, they have to scream the name ‘battlecam.com’ six times, and they have to be nude.”

Two men involved in the stunt, Glen Zolar and Joey “Boots” Bassolino, assured THE WEEKLY STANDARD that Rodriguez met the requirements.

Zolar, who spoke with me on the phone earlier tonight, is a moderator on battlecam.com. Zolar was cruising the website when Rodriguez contacted him and asked whether he’d be able to facilitate this stunt. Seeking personal gain – primarily, monetary gain – Zolar agreed.

When asked how much he would get paid from Rodriguez’s payout, Zolar said, “I’d rather not disclose the figure, but it would definitely be more than $5,000 … and less than $25,000.”

Zolar says he has done freelance producing for the Howard Stern Show. Bassolino is a frequent guest on the show, which is well-known for conducting stunts just like the one carried out today in Philadelphia. Zolar asked Bassolino to film the stunt this evening. The two say it has been recorded but has not yet been broadcast on the website. No payment has yet been made, and though it has not yet been given David’s approval, it appears Rodriguez met all of David’s requirements.

“I am on the record as saying that it needed to be done in a place where it’s legal to be nude,” David said. But “it’s a suggestion, not a rule.”

Wow. What some people will do for their 15 minutes of fame and a little money. Unbelievable. 🙄

Update #1: Sorry gang, but after having to delete a ton of threatening comments on here, in the moderation cue. I’ve decided to close the comment section on this and the other related entries to this story. I am all for freedom of speech; but this is just outright stupidity. So, they’re closed.

Update #2: If you liked my coverage of this story, please, feel free to hit my tip jar. I am a full time blogger and I, like many others, have been out work since 2005. That’s not a joke, it is the truth. Any all help would be appreciated. If that link does not work, click on the jar to the left of your screen. Thanks. 🙂

and here’s the tip jar, click the pic to give:





Just an update to a story that I posted about earlier.

Via Fox News Detroit:

The Story:

Jennifer Petkov told FOX 2’s Ronnie Dahl Friday night that she never really meant any ill wishes towards Kathleen Edward or her family.

Scott and Jennifer Petkov even went so far as to display a lighted candle on their porch at the same time dozens of strangers were gathering across the street in front of Kathleen’s home.

“If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn’t do it,” Jennifer Petkov told Ronnie Dahl. “And to that little girl, I apologize if you’ve been hurt. There’s not much more I can say. And hopefully we can live our lives peacefully from now on.”

Actually, what happened was, she got on TV and acted like an arrogant asshole; and did not think or did not know that the story would go viral. Well, it did and they had to endure a shit storm. Now, she is is a bit more humble about it. My Mom, who is usually more forgiving about stuff like this; does not buy this woman’s apology one iota. I will not even get into what she thinks should happen to this woman. Needless to say, I was a bit shocked about what my Mom had to say about it. 😯

Anyhow, I still think the woman is an asshole; but I also think that she should be left alone. So, if you’ve come here via search engine, and are plotting —- forget about it. She is not worth it, and she should be allowed to live her life in peace. She did apologize on TV, now whether she is sincere or not — is another story. But we have to take it a face value and let her be. I am willing to do so, and so should you.

That is all… 😀

I have heard of the crazies running the asylum, but this?

heh…:

DOVER, Del. (AP) — The head of the agency charged with enforcing Delaware’s alcohol laws has resigned after being arrested for drunken driving.

Siobahn Sullivan submitted her resignation letter to Secretary of Safety and Homeland Security Lewis Schiliro on Friday, saying she was resigning effective immediately as director of the Division of Alcohol and Tobacco Enforcement.

Sullivan was stopped for speeding early Thursday on Route 1 near Lewes and subsequently charged with drunken driving. The 45-year-old Sullivan was released pending arraignment, which is scheduled for Oct. 22., and had been placed on administrative leave with pay.

Would this be considered as “The drunks running the AA meeting?”

Just a thought. 😛

Siobahn Sullivan: My name is (hic) Siobahn and I am the drunk enforcer

Man: No kidding, you just about hit that truck back there!

So funny.

Update #3: If liked this blog entry and rest like it, feel free to hit my tip jar. I do this full time, no job since 2005. If the link does not work, just click on the jar to the left of your screen.

and here is that tip jar: (click the pic to give….)





Update #2: Sorry guys, As of now, I am closing the comments on this story and all of the rest entries related to this. I am sick and tired of having to weed through and delete the threating comments. Sorry, but a few bad apples ruined it. In the end, I run this thing and I won’t tolerate personal threats posted here. Freedom of speech is one thing, being as stupid as the people who did this…..is another.

Update: Please, before you read this, go here first! Jennifer Petkov has apologized to the family via the media. So, I consider this case closed.

First of all, watch this video:

Now read this story via Fox 2 Detroit: (H/T D-Listed)

TRENTON, Mich. – Her family says 7-year-old Kathleen Edward is in the final stages of a degenerative brain disorder diagnosed as Huntington’s Disease – the same disease which killed her mother, Laura, when she was only 24.

Neighbors Jennifer and Scott Petkov, who have been feuding with the family, admitted to posting grim depictions of Laura and Kathleen on Facebook.  One photo depicts Laura in the arms of the grim reaper, while the other features Kathleen’s face above a set of crossbones.

The couple also have a coffin hitched to a pick-up truck in front of the house, which they say is nothing more than a Halloween decoration.

Of course, now that the heat is on her, she is now saying, “I sorry!”

Scott Petkov says he’s sorry.  “We apologize for our actions and stupidity.  It was an ignorant thing that we did and it was basically in retaliation about things that were said about my house and my wife.”

Scott’s wife Jennifer doctored-up and posted photos of Laura Edward, who died from Huntington’s Disease , showing her wrapped in the arms of the grim reaper.  She also posted a photo of Laura’s 7-year-old daughter, Kathleen Edward, who is now dying from Huntington’s Disease ,  her face becoming the center of a skull and crossbones.

Another Video:

UPDATE: The address if you’d like to send pizzas or whatever; is over at  Crime and Federalism, it’s posted there. I decided to remove it from my blog; just in case some crazy does burn the bitch’s house down. I won’t get blamed for it. Update: I’m removing that link, she has apologized; so, I’m not going to contribute to her being harassed any longer. It’s over, let’s all move on.

This lady even now has her own facebook page! Update: Facebook pulls the page… (of course…)

I am sorry to say, that this lowlife bitch lives about 5 miles from my house. I found out about this from a friend on facebook. (Of Course…)

I know that I have done my share of stupid stuff; but this goes way beyond anything that I have ever cooked up. This bitch will never have a life again. Best thing this woman and her fat ass husband can do is leave the damned Country and go somewhere and get a new ID. I’d be scared to even live in that house now. Because she has provoked the anger of many.

There is just no excuse for this sort of crap, at all, period, end of story — the woman should be locked up.

As someone who’s had MY own personal id bandied around the internet; I feel for this little girl.

May Kathleen Edward spend the rest of her days in peace. 🙁

Major Update: First off, as I noted above, the page for Jennifer Petkov is now gone; which I think was a wise thing, as there were threats of violence on there. Second of all, There have been some pages for Kathleen Edward set up. They are here and here. I did mention to a family member, who contacted me via e-mail that I would be more than happy to put up a web page and or Blog for the little lady, if I can get an agreement to get donated hosting. Hopefully, I will hear from Site5.com on that. I would also like to get PayPal Donations set up for them as well. Stay tuned.

Update – January 13, 2012 : Kathleen Edward has passed away, my tribute to her is here.

Holy Cow!: Democratic Party Representative John Dingell at 39% in polling

Posted on1 Comment

(H/T on this story to Ed Morrissey over at HotAir.com….)

As a rule, I do not get too excited about polls — but this one here, is a stunner!

From my hometown paper — The Detroit Free Press: (which by the way leans more Liberal —- Unlike the Detroit News; which is more libertarian leaning. )

A new independent poll has the dean of the U.S. House, Rep. John Dingell, trailing his Republican opponent, Rob Steele, by 4 percentage points.

The automated phone survey of 300 people in the 15th Congressional District showed Steele getting 43.8% of the vote. Dingell, a Dearborn Democrat and the longest-serving member of Congress, got 39.5%. About 11% were undecided. The gap is within the poll’s margin of error of plus or minus 5.6 percentage points. The poll was conducted Monday.

Dingell’s campaign said the survey — conducted by the Rossman Group of Lansing and Team TelCom — is a Republican front and is contradicted by other polls in recent weeks.

Team TelCom’s president Gary Reed has Republican ties, but Kelly Rossman-McKinney, CEO of the Rossman Group, has Democratic roots.

“It’s kind of what we hear on the ground. We’re hearing from everybody about the need for change and the need for someone who is not a career politician,” Steele said.

Ed Morrissey interjects:

Having Steele ahead is certainly newsworthy, but the bigger takeaway here is just how badly Dingell polls in this race after almost 56 years in Washington.

Why?  In part, Michigan’s economic woes play into the national anti-incumbent mood.  The state has followed the same kind of economic plan that Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama have tried to implement on a national scale, and they’ve been doing it longer.  Michigan voters can see the end game even more clearly than voters nationwide, and it’s no surprise that Michigan might clean House in three weeks.  Part of it, though, is Dingell himself, who has a habit of saying foolish things, and saying them on national TV.

Not only this; the bigger point is that not all of Michigan is liberal blue. I can tell you of areas that are, in fact, very Conservative and they’re not the rich, upper middle class areas either. There are some middle, working class area that have been in the Republican camp for years. Generally the further south, north, east and west of Detroit you go. The more Conservative politically it gets. Detroit proper is solidly liberal; but the suburbs is a mixed bag.

The bigger point is this; and it was articulated by Mr. Morrissey very well; people here in Michigan are just fed up. The Democrats have held the keys here forever and day. The Democrats have, along with the inaction of Republicans who were in power back when the signs that the housing market was going to crash — basically screwed this area into the ground. Michigan’s housing market is, bluntly —- terrible. This was caused by the Democrat’s stupid idea of social engineering of the housing market. The Carter Administration started it and Clinton Administration continued it. This is not even to mention the globalist NAFTA and TAFTA agreements that were signed into law by the Clinton Administrations; which in effect hobbled the Automotive industry here in Detroit. Why do you think that the UAW here in Detroit did not make a endorsement of the Democratic Candidates, until after the primary was finally over? Because the UAW’s memory is long and they remember how Clinton sold them up the river.

Plus, too, Jennifer Granholm’s performance here as Governor of Michigan has been described as horrific at best. Her policies and style of Governorship in this state has been just awful. Even my Father, who is a committed Democratic Party voter, cannot stand the woman. It has not been uncommon to hear the phrase, “Send that bitch back to Canada, where she belongs!” to be said in the context of a conversation about her. That is kind of nasty; but that is the feeling about her around here. This might be the reason why when her Lt. Governor John D. Cherry did a test poll to see how he would fare in a election, the result was a resounding, “HELL NO!” and he scrapped his plans to run for Governor.

Now The Blog Prof wonders:

If Dingell isn’t safe in Detroit, is any Democrat safe anywhere?

Now because I am a realist. I believe there are some safe Democratic Districts  Hansen Clarke will get Michigan’s 13th congressional district. I just do not see a Republican winning that. Unless a miracle happens.

Either way, this is going to be a very interesting election cycle. It is 25 days away from election day. I cannot wait to vote. 😀

Gallup Poll: Unemployment back over 10%

Posted on

The only reason I am posting this today, is being I got a call from a poll taker; he was getting poll data for the coming election….. and boy did he ever get an ear full about the Democrats.

Memo to the Democrats: It’s the jobs stupid. (H/T HotAir)

PRINCETON, NJ — Unemployment, as measured by Gallup without seasonal adjustment, increased to 10.1% in September — up sharply from 9.3% in August and 8.9% in July. Much of this increase came during the second half of the month — the unemployment rate was 9.4% in mid-September — and therefore is unlikely to be picked up in the government’s unemployment report on Friday.

Certain groups continue to fare worse than the national average. For example, 15.8% of Americans aged 18 to 29 and 13.9% of those with no college education were unemployed in September.

The increase in the unemployment rate component of Gallup’s underemployment measure is partially offset by fewer part-time workers, 8.7%, now wanting full-time work, down from 9.3% in August and 9.5% at the end of July.

As a result, underemployment shows a more modest increase to 18.8% in September from 18.6% in August, though it is up from 18.4% in July. Underemployment peaked at 20.4% in April and has yet to fall below 18.3% this year.

The government’s final unemployment report before the midterm elections is based on job market conditions around mid-September. Gallup’s modeling of the unemployment rate is consistent with Tuesday’s ADP report of a decline of 39,000 private-sector jobs, and indicates that the government’s national unemployment rate in September will be in the 9.6% to 9.8% range. This is based on Gallup’s mid-September measurements and the continuing decline Gallup is seeing in the U.S. workforce during 2010.

However, Gallup’s monitoring of job market conditions suggests that there was a sharp increase in the unemployment rate during the last couple of weeks of September. It could be that the anticipated slowdown of the overall economy has potential employers even more cautious about hiring. Some of the increase could also be seasonal or temporary.

Further, Gallup’s underemployment measure suggests that the percentage of workers employed part time but looking for full-time work is declining as the unemployment rate increases. To some degree, this may reflect a reduced company demand for new part-time employees. For example, employers may be converting some existing part-time workers to full time when they are needed as replacements, but may not in turn be hiring replacement part-time workers. Another explanation may relate to the shrinkage of the workforce, as some employees who have taken part-time work in hopes of getting full-time jobs get discouraged and drop out of the workforce completely — going back to school to enhance their education, for example, instead of doing part-time work. It is even possible that some workers may find unemployment insurance a better alternative than part-time work with little prospect of going full time.

Regardless, the sharp increase in the unemployment rate during late September does not bode well for the economy during the fourth quarter, or for holiday sales. In this regard, it is essential that the Federal Reserve and other policymakers not be misled by Friday’s jobs numbers. The jobs picture could be deteriorating more rapidly than the government’s job release suggests.

But, as we know the Democrats are not interested in helping the white middle class. They’re more interested in insulting Americans, because they feel that they’re too stupid to know what they want. It is not just the politicians either, it is their bloggers too. See Here, Here and Here. See why I will never vote Democrat again, ever?

While we real Americans are out of work and waiting for the Government to get out of the way; so that actual jobs can be created in this Country. The liberal elite are taking to the airwaves and to the blogs to insult the American people and those of us that disagree with the socialism of Barack Obama, as stupid, racist, and America-haters.

Remember this come November 2, 2010 and vote accordingly. We need change; but not the sort of change that the Democrats are wanting to push on us; further more, we should not allow these monsters to insult us. We should speak back —- at the ballot box!

Michigan’s unemployment rate is higher than the National

Detroit’s unemployment rate, last I heard was at 30%.

Vote Different. America’s future depends on it.

The Feckless Right: Exhibit M for Morbid

Posted on

An interesting event happened last night. I happened to see one of the sickest morbid things ever written on twitter by a so-called Conservative blogger.

It was written by Robert Stacy McCain —- Yeah, that Robert Stacy McCain. The same guy who threw me under the bus to satisfy and pacify a Michelle Malkin fan boy. The one who has quite the checkered past and is now the Neo-Conservative darling; despite his checkered past.

Last night Mr. Neo-Nazi McCain took to twitter and said this:

Neo-Nazi Robert Stacy McCain Morbid Right Wing Asshole of the Year!

…and after I tried to be a little charitable after his idiotic Neo-Nazi assistant basically blew his blog up or it was hacked by someone that McCain pissed off!

So, anyhow, I saw that, and I must confess, I lost it. Here is why; I live here in Michigan, Kent State is Ohio. In case anyone does not know what McCain was referring to; he was mocking and making light of the Kent State shootings that took place at Kent State in Ohio on May 4, 1970.  This is the awful tragedy that produced one of the most iconic photos in history; this one:

Kent State Student Mary Ann Vecchio kneels over the body of Kent State Student Jeffrey Miller's dead body

But yet, Robert Stacy McCain thinks that this is funny and that this sort of barbaric action should happen to anyone who disagrees with his form of Conservatism. Which, in all honesty, is about as Conservative, as I am Communist.

Anyhow, as I said before, I lost it; and I took to twitter and said the following:

and I said this:

I want to be know of public record; that I meant every god-damned word of that too. Anyone morbid person that would take to twitter, a blog or any other sort of writing medium and write something as asinine as this; ought to suffer the same fate as those innocent students who were merciless murdered in 1970. In Robert Stacy McCain’s case, the sooner the damned better. Normally, I would never advocate that sort of extremism; but this idiotic comment was just more than I could take. Nothing says, “Out of Touch, DC Beltway elitist asshole” better than some former Neo-Nazi turned Neo-Conservative darling writing something as idiotic and moronic as this.

Ladies and Gentlemen, if this is what the new post-Bush Conservative/Republican movement is all about, I want nothing to do with it and you will find in the sanity region of libertarianism and Paleo-Conservatism. I might not agree with the Socialist, Communist, Democratic Party far left; but I will be damned, if I will ever advocate for the deaths of those that I disagree with!

I feel like Senator Barry Goldwater Sr. and the man who owned the farm at Woodstock — Mr. Max Yasgur, who was, in fact, a libertarian Conservative; I might not agree with those who protested this past weekend, but I will advocate to my dying breath for their right to protest and for their right to hold to and believe whatever political, religious or person beliefs that they might wish to hold. That is the beauty of this fine Country will call America; we can disagree on politics and actually have an opinion of our own without worry that someone might actually want to kill us. Like in North Korea, Iran and in other nations that do not enjoy the freedoms of ours.

It is too bad that people like that Neo-Nazi scum, Robert Stacy McCain does not hold to much beliefs, but instead wishes to see those who whom he disagrees with brutally murdered. My friends, that is not true Conservatism, nor is that a true American spirit. That is the spirit of a Nazi fascist thug. Something that Robert Stacy McCain knows all about!

Like I wrote previously to Rick Moran; I can relate — Boy can I ever. 😡 and as Rick said, this being the fool business is a very lonely venture. However, if standing on the Island of common sense and decency; and yes, dare I say it —- Sanity?!?! is what I must do.  Then here I shall stand, until THEY, not ME come back to their senses!

Video: Jon Stewart on Rick Sanchez’s firing

Posted on

I have to hand it to Stewart; he handled this very well and he said basically the same thing that I did. Which was, for those who are too damned lazy to click a link —- that Rick Sanchez was on the way out anyway, and knew it and thought he would take a nice shot at Stewart to ensure his departure. Here is the really funny part, the right’s useful idiot Atheist; no, not AllahPundit — wants Sanchez brought back and in the process of the article takes a rather gratuitous swipe at Israel. Good Job Hitchens, nothing like pissing off your readers before assuming room temperature. 🙄

Anyhow, here’s the video; if anything, it’s worth a decent laugh or two at the expense of a rather moronic unemployed person.

Hey….wait a minute! 😯

All is not well in Sharron Angle Land

Posted on1 Comment

Audio:

The Story via The Los Vegas Sun:

That’s just some of what GOP Senate nominee Sharron Angle said during a meeting Wednesday evening with Tea Party of Nevada candidate Scott Ashjian and Tea Party of Nevada Chairman Sid James at the home of Richard Ziser, who lost to Harry Reid in 1994 and now is an adviser to the Angle campaign and also participated in the conversation.

A tape of the 38-minute meeting that I have obtained provides a rare window into the kinds of discussions that take place during campaigns behind closed doors, redolent of the authenticity that disappears in public or in TV ads.

The conversation reveals Angle almost desperate to show Ashjian they are like-minded, that they both disdain the major parties, but insistent that the Tea Party of Nevada contender could help Reid win if he doesn’t embrace her candidacy. Ashjian emphasizes he believes a third party is the only way and that he believes he can garner a fifth of the vote, which seems fantastically optimistic, to put it mildly.

Some of the highlights:

Angle expresses disdain for the national GOP, which she says she now has “in a box” because she won the primary, which caused the DC types after her June 8 victory to still be “moaning and groaning and weeping and gnashing teeth over Sue Lowden.” Later, she tries to persuade Ashjian to endorse her because she will have “juice” he can tap into to get access to Sens. Jim DeMint, Tom Coburn and Mitch McConnell.

I can just hear it now: The woman who calls the majority leader “Let’s Make a Deal Harry Reid” becomes “Let’s Make a Deal Sharron Angle”

At the meeting’s outset, Ashjian seems open to a deal, suggesting if he can get an apology from the Tea Party Express, “we can get on board.” He claims he does not want money, wants the lawsuits about his candidacy to go away – remember those voicemails from GOP lawyer Cleta Mitchell posted elsewhere on my blog suggest she was trying to “settle” something with him. By the end of the meeting, it’s clear this attempted backroom bargain is going nowhere – and I’m not sure Ashjian ever wanted it to.

There’s a lot more, too, including:

—-Angle’s open disgust with her own party’s leaders and principles (or lack thereof)

—-James’ obvious abandonment of Ashjian’s candidacy and insistence that Angle will lose unless he withdraws and that there is still time to get his name off the ballot

—-Some brief trashing of Sen. John Ensign by Ziser and Ashjian

—-Ashjian’s claims of physical threats and of being followed

—-Angle’s agreement with him that both major parties are “corrupt”

—-Angle’s claim to have taken over the Washoe County Republican Party and having her “guys” in the Clark County GOP

—-Her promise to deliver to Ashjian “anything I can personally,” including an apology from the Tea Party Express after the election.

It is a unique and quite entertaining fly-on-the-wall look inside a campaign.

I have posted an audio file of the meeting at right and below are some snippets of the conversation. As you will hear if you listen to the audio, some of what Angle says is muffled, but I have listened to the tape four times and extracted as much as I could. (Ashjian is slated to be on “Face to Face” on Monday to discuss the taping and the conversation.)

Considering this tape is now out, you have to ask the question: What in the world was Angle thinking taking this meeting? That, by the way, is the question Cleta Mitchell asked herself after she heard about her candidate taking it.)

———————-

Angle: “The Republicans have lost their standards, they’ve lost their principles…..Really that’s why the machine in the Republican Party is fighting against me…..They have never really gone along with lower taxes and less government.”

Angle: “…what has happened to me in this whole definition of me by Harry Reid….It’s hard…and it’s especially hard when you know it’s not true.”

Angle: “The one thing you said about the machinery that has endorsed me, they have no choice… …it’s me or Reid…that’s what they got…. also this is such a national race…so really we have them in a box…they are coming to us and saying, ‘We know we got to support you.’ ….In some ways, it’s exactly where we wanted that good old boy thing is in the box…(She then begins using an analogy about David and Goliath, and David shedding his armor.) ‘You gotta get my armor off and let me pick up this slingshot’…..that’s where I am right now, get them to leave me alone for long enough so I can…. go after this guy…. you (Ashjian) have tapped into it, the essence of America….and the essence of America is we are tired of politics as usual… only thing that’s different between you and I is I guess I was pragmatic enough to know…that third parties can’t get traction….so I said all right, I’ll work with it. just show me what the rules are and I’ll work with it…the rules are there are Democrats and Republicans…so I moved myself up within the Republican ranks….they have no choice, I’m the only game in town…. There was no one more shocked than they were when I won that primary, when I went back to Washington DC, they were still moaning and groaning and weeping and gnashing teeth over Sue Lowden…And I said I am what ya got, this is it.”

Angle: “I believe you (Ashjian) can do some real harm, not to Harry Reid but to me…I’m not sure you can win and I’m not sure I can win if you’re hurting my chance and that’s the part that scares me.”

Ashjian: “You have to understand, it’s not personal.”

Angle: “Everyone say it’s not personal but then Harry Reid wins.”

Angle: “(The Republicans in DC) don’t want me back there…because they know I’ll shake this mess up….…..I shook it up in Carson City, they hated me there…41-Angle was not a compliment……..When I go back, there may be five or six of us….maybe Joe Miller (Alaska), Ken Buck (Colorado), Christine O’Donnell (Delaware).

Ashjian: “She (O’Donnell) doesn’t have a chance.”

Angle: “Well I think she’s real.” She then skeptically mentions the Florida GOP Senate nominee as one of the group: “Marco Rubio, but that’s a stretch for me.”

Angle: Says the grass roots movement “gives me juice. That’s really all I can offer to you (Ashjian) is whatever juice I have, you have as well…You want to see DeMint, I have juice with him….I go to Washington, DC and want to see Jim DeMint, he’s right there for me. I want to see Tom Coburn, he’s right there for me. I want to see Mitch McConnell, he’s there.”

Angle: “I need your help to defeat Harry Reid. I can’t do this….”

Ouch.

Video: Black Leftist Attacks White Reporter Covering One Nation Rally

Posted on

….and, of course, nothing happens to her.

Here’s the video: (Via Human Events)

The Story Via Human Events:

A liberal protester at the “One Nation Working Together” march physically assaulted a HUMAN EVENTS reporter who was videotaping Rep. Charlie Rangel (D.-N.Y) at the event at the National Mall in Washington, D.C.

The reporter, Emily Miller, was first hit from behind while she was taping Rangel as the Harlem congressman glad-handed supporters in front of the Lincoln Memorial. Miss Miller is heard on the video saying, “Please don’t hit me.” The protester proceeds to yell at the reporter, “Well get out of the way! What do you think this is? Asshole.” The activist was attempting to meet Rangel herself. Miss Miller continued videotaping the event, when suddenly the same unhinged protester lunged at her, hit her on the arm, and yelled, “Don’t take my picture.”

As the footage shows, the protestor then slapped Miss Miller, hitting the flip cam and saying, “Do not take my picture. Do not take my fucking picture and I mean it.”

The scene continued, as the deranged woman assaulted Miss Miller yet again, before having to be restrained by members of the Park Police.

Here’s the story by the lady who was hit:

To answer your questions….

The Park Police called Capitol Police to handle the situation. I asked the Capitol Police to get me somewhere safe, which they did. They took my report of what happened.

They interviewed the many witnesses at the scene around the protester. All the witnesses said nothing happened, and that the woman did not hit me. I showed the officers one of the videos on the flip cam. The officer said that hitting the camera is not against the law.

My hands were shaking so much, I couldn’t rewind to show the earlier video.

The police asked me repeatedly if I had someone with me who could vouch for my story. I said, no, I’m alone here reporting on this march. Since it was my word against all the witnesses, I asked them to just get me safely out of the rally.

The officer said he would investigate to determine if an arrest was warranted. As far as I know, nothing further happened.

I was mostly shocked that all of those the witnesses lied to the police. So much for not bearing false witness…

And, I’ll add, no one stopped the woman from repeatedly hitting me. So much for decency… – Emily Miller, Washington, D.C

Folks, we need to just be real about this one; this woman was not arrested, because she was black. If this would have been a White Woman and the camera woman black and this would have been a Tea Party rally —- the liberal media would have been a perpetual meltdown mode, the person would have been made an example of and this persons name would have been in all of the papers. But because it was some black protester at a union rally; not a word is said about it.

You know, I am just going to say it. Sometimes, I really think Governor George Wallace —- was absolutely correct.

I hate to the one to say it; but I think we, as Americans, as White Americans — need to STOP apologizing to these bastards and take our Country back from the interlopers who have taken it over.

Here’s what I mean: (This video pertains to South Africa, but it could very well apply to America too)

It is time we got real; and quit this “Go along to get along” crap that the GOP is doing now. Because it is only hurting us.

Video: Bill Maher calls Republicans “A Deadly Enemy”

Posted on1 Comment

Video:

Transcript:

BILL MAHER: And finally, new rule: someone has to explain to me how it is that the Democrats can’t talk about their accomplishments while the Republicans actually campaign on their fuck-ups. Last week President Obama had the frankest town hall meeting I’ve ever seen, and a woman named Velma Hart took the mike and told the president, “I’m exhausted defending you.” Well, if you’re like Velma and you’re tired of making excuses for Obama, just imagine how tired he is of making excuses for you.

[Applause]

I know. Unemployment is high but you’re the one who’s not working, not him. He has a job. And part of it is stopping John Boehner from throwing you off unemployment.

[Applause]

Now, I’m — I am not here to carry water for this or any administration, but the facts of the coming election are Democrats have real accomplishments to run on. Like preventing a depression and forcing insurance companies to cover preexisting conditions. Like stopping the banks from being the useless middle-man on student loans, and lowering taxes for non-rich people. Obama has passed a credit card bill of rights, he restarted stem cell research, and got our ass out of Iraq, and signed a nuclear treaty with Russia – not to mention the intangible of having a president who can pronounce “nuclear.”

[Laughter]

Why can’t the Democrats get props for what they’ve achieved? Oh, I know, I know. Obama is black. He’s used to being denied credit.

[Laughter]

And there’s nothing wrong with being hard on him. He is the president. It’s our job to keep him honest. But when it comes to voting, when we only have two choices, you got to grow up and realize there’s a big difference between a disappointing friend and a deadly enemy.

[Applause]

Of course, the Democrats are disappointing. That’s what makes them Democrats. If they were any more frustrating they’d be your relatives. But in this country, they are all that stands between you and darkest night. You know why their symbol is the letter D? Because it’s a grade that means good enough but just barely. You know why the Republican symbol is R? Because it’s the noise a pirate makes when he robs you and feeds you to a shark.

He’s a really funny fellow. He’d be good for something…. What it is, I really do not know; shoe-shine boy at the bar mitzvah convention or something? 😯

I know, I know, some of you all might object to what I just wrote up there. But you know what? I say, FUCK IT! They want to insult us? I will insult them and unlike some of the pansy ass Conservatives, who won’t go there, due to fear of the PC police. I just do not give a flying fuck. The Liberals hate this damned Country and they just do not care about whom or what they hurt; so, I believe it is time to fight fire…..with fire.

Also, I have to wonder what the people cleaning the National Mall after the jack-boot fest would have to say about this?

Remember this come November 2 and vote accordingly. Because this stuff has gone on long enough; it is time to take back the wheel and put in people who are really Conservatives; and not Neo-Cons, who are of Maher’s stripe and nose size; and take back the Country.

Count down to being called an Antisemitic so and so in 5….4….3….2… Like I really honestly give a flying fuck. 😛

How the left really feels about our Military

Posted on1 Comment

Here is another video from the leftist shindig up on the National Mall in Washington D.C.

This is a video of the World War II memorial in Washington D.C. after the leftist jackboots got done with it.

This makes me sick to my god-damned stomach. 😡

The Video: (H/T to HotAirPundit and it comes with a special thanks to Michelle Malkin)

Dear God…………………………… What is happening to my Country? 🙁 😥

Mrs. Malkin, I do not know if you will actually ever read this; but if you do. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for linking to that Video, and thanks to HotAirPundit for posting. This is an outrage. Something has to be done, these people do not love America; they hate it.

Update: Some of you might be wondering why this one bothers me so badly; Because it is personal, extremely personal. My Grandfather’s two brothers, both from Georgia, served in the United States Military during World War II. Both served in Germany, both made it back alive, both lost friends in the War. My Dad’s Father’s brother also served in the Military during War II. They were a part of the greatest generation ever; and these bastard communists treat that memorial like it is some park!?!?!? That is an outrage! Many people gave their lives for this Country, so that those idiot communists could have the right to march and believe in their idiotic dream of a socialist utopia and they treat their memorial like it is a place to leave their garbage.  There are no words to describe what I am feeling right now —- rage, anger, hatred, resentment, sadness, fear of what the Country is becoming —- all of that in one big ball of fury.

My friends, I apologize if my writing at the moment sounds damned disjointed. But god-damn it, I am angry. We must vote for a new slate come November 2, 2010. This is gone on long enough. There is just some lines that you do not cross; and the Democrats, the socialists, the left; what the hell ever you want to call them —- they crossed it yesterday. We must, must, must, let them know that the silent majority of us will not sit idly by and allow these jack-booted thugs destroy our nation any longer. It has to stop, before it is too late.

Again, sorry for rambling. But this one really bothered me.

Despite all the spin by some; it looks like there was a decent crowd there today.

I’d say as many as Glenn Beck had at his rally.

However, it is fair to point out that there were communists, unionists, Liberals, and even few weirdos there.

Not to mention how they left the place: (H/T Doug Ross)

However, I will say, as a libertarian-minded person; that this people have as much right to assemble peacefully, as the Tea Party group does. They also have a right to believe the way that they wish, as do the Tea Party Crowd does — even if it is horribly wrong.  Being wrong and incredibly stupid, is not against the law. Because if it were, I would have been jailed eons ago. 😛

No, I do not rejoice about Robert Stacy McCain’s Misfortune

Posted on1 Comment

I have received a few e-mails inquiring my feelings about the fact that Mr. Robert Stacy McCain’s blog encountered some problems and was down; and is now being repaired.

The short answer is no.  I do not rejoice when another Blogger; even though that blogger did toss me under the bus, has a problem.

Let me explain to you why.  Back on December 25, 2007, my blog, which was at this address here, was hacked, and I mean hacked badly, by Russian hackers who had been sniffing around my site for a long while.  However, unbelievably, you can actually look at my old blog here.  Partially, it was my fault for having that blog hosted at a site, whose security software, (MOD_Security for you geeky people…) was horrible out of date.  In addition, I had done a very stupid thing.  I did a Drupal in the root directory install with WordPress in a sub-directory. I was told later that this was not a smart thing to do —- I do have knack for figuring stuff out, the hard way.

Anyhow, everything that I had written on that blog, from the day I started blogging in 2006 — was lost.  I do not believe that I could ever properly put into words how much that hurt.  However, I cannot say that it was not deserved; I did make a huge mistake.  I did something, for which I am still feeling horrible about; I insulted a man’s dead wife — by accident.  I still feel horrible about it; and those who are his friends, still hate me to this because of it.  The blog, of whom the domain name had outlived its actual purpose, as by then, I had become convinced that left was just wrong about the good majority of things — was hacked and there I was, with nothing to show for a year’s worth of work.

Anyhow, so, no, I will not sit here and rejoice over someone else’s misfortune.  I hope McCain is able to pull it out of the fire and get back to blogging.  Even though he did toss me to the curb, I still read there; because like him or not, you have to admit, he is one hell of a good writer.  McCain is better than my piss poor excuse for writing.

I could not call myself a Christian — albeit a half-assed one as I am — and still look myself in the mirror, if I thought anything different.

UPDATED — WTF?!?!??!? CNN’s Rick Sanchez steps in it, deep – CNN Says Rick Sanchez is FIRED!

Posted on2 Comments

This one comes via Mediaite:

Audio:

Transcript:

CNN’s Rick Sanchez is not happy with being made fun of constantly on The Daily Show and Colbert Report. It is from this jumping off point that he absolutely unleashed on Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, and at times his own network, on Pete Dominick’s satellite radio show yesterday.

The big takeaway – Sanchez calls Stewart “a bigot,” then walks it back a bit, and he implies CNN is run by Jews.

The money quote:

I’m telling you that everybody who runs CNN is a lot like Stewart, and a lot of people who run all the other networks are a lot like Stewart, and to imply that somehow they, the people in this country who are Jewish, are an oppressed minority? Yeah.

Whoa……. 😯

What was I saying about people doing stupid stuff? Holy catfish…. 😯

To be fair, Sanchez did say that he was mindful of the past. But, cripes… Could you be just a little more sarcastic Rick?


A few other things: Sanchez ended his 8pmET version of Rick’s List today, and Parker Spitzer come in Monday. According to the same blog post, Dominick is starting a weekly Saturday 2:30pmET show on CNN tomorrow. We’ll get the audio up here shortly, but you can listen on Dominick’s site. And finally, we’ve reached out to CNN for a response.

He could be a little angry, maybe bitter. But my goodness. Does he have to be that much of sleazeball about it? 🙄

I’m just saying…

Now a Memeornadum Thread and the top news story of the day.

Also too, some of you might be thinking, what about you? Well, there’s a difference between being a wee little blogger and, um, ya know, Rich Sanchez.

Huge Update! CNN Says, “¡Adiós! ¡Hasta luego!”:

CNN released this statement today:

“Rick Sanchez is no longer with the company. We thank Rick for his years of service and we wish him well.“

They will broadcast CNN Newsroom from 3-5pm for the foreseeable future.

I got news for you though; he knew he was going. That is why he got on the air and said what he did. He knew things were changing and he was not apart of it. So, Rick went off and said what he did, to get out of his contract….. and it worked.

of course, Rick will play the victim card and someone will eat that up. I look for him to pop up over at MSNBC or somewhere similar.

Oh Brother…. 🙄

According to the pool report, Obama thanked Phillips for the work he and his wife have done for Team Obama. Then the president mentioned that Phillips and Douglass have an opulent place in Italy and wondered why there had been no invitation to visit. “I’d appreciate a little break and some Tuscan sun,” the president said, according to the pool report. “Some pasta. I can use it.” — Obama: ‘I’d appreciate a little break’ | Washington Examiner

Way I see it, if this mother fucker cannot hang with the big dogs in D.C. Then, he needs to get his ass off the damn porch and get back to Kenya chi-town where he fucking belongs. Sorry if this sounds harsh; but I am a little fucking tired of listening to the President fucking whine about how fucking hard his god-damned job is. The way I see it, the mother fucker ran for President and he won, fair and square. He spent, what little time he has been on Congress and such critizing the previous President and thinking he could do a better job. Now, President Obama is in there, now he needs to do the job and quit the fucking whining or else, resign and let someone take over that can do the fucking job.

Others: Betsy’s Page, National Review and Weasel Zippers

Updated: I thought I should add some more here; so that some of you can understand where I am coming from here. This is coming from someone who did not vote for George W. Bush. Now, having said that, let me say this — President George W. Bush; for all of his faults, as much as he was damned wrong about Foreign Policy —- never once, that I actually know of, ever publicly bitched or whined about how hard his job was or that he needed some sort of damned vacation. You think President Bush did not work hard during his tenure as President of United States? Please. 🙄  I would venture to guess that George W. Bush most likely dealt with more crap, as President; than Mr. Bambi Teleprompter will ever have to deal with. The truth is, as much as I thought Bush was wrong on many thing. I never, ever heard him complain about his job. That because CEO’s are not supposed to complain, they are leaders; and it is quite obvious to this damned writer that President Obama is not a leader, but rather a pen-pusher or a paper shuffler. He is not interested in leading, he is only interested in the glory and praise. Which is typical of people of his ilk.

So, in closing, my message to the President of the United States of America is this:

MAN THE HELL UP OR GET THE FUCK OUT!

That is all. 😡


My thoughts on Meg Whitman-Gate

Posted on1 Comment

Here is the deal. This lady wanted to run for Senate. She knew damned well, what she did. But yet, she decided to run anyhow. Now, her husband is basically saying, “Well, maybe we did screw up.”

Michelle Malkin blames the maid; sorry, I do not buy that; I am not saying she isn’t being pushed to this stuff, and I am fully aware that she is faking the emotional crap.

I place the blame squarely on Meg Whitman. She knew damned well what she hired and decided to do it anyhow. Now that she’s caught, she’s playing dumb. Sorry Meg, we’re a bit smarter than that.

Which brings me to my point: Why the hell do people, who want to run for public office, do extremely stupid stuff? Makes zero sense to me. I mean, they should know that sooner or later, they are going to get caught. It is more than just an oversight; it is just blantant stupidity. Not that we need much more of that on our side of the political fence. I mean, we cannot critize liberals and thier idiotic polices, if we Conservatives are basically doing the same thing.

This about all that I have to say about this one. I mean, if the Republican Party of California cannot vet thier canidates any better than this; then they have no business being in power.

News: Mid-Week Market Report on SP500, Oil, Gold & Dollar

Posted on

Some interesting news:

Wednesday the market didn’t tell us anything new. The equities market is still over extended on the daily chart but the market is refusing to break down. Each time there has been seen selling in the market over the past two weeks, the market recovers. Equities and the dollar have been trading with an inverse relationship and it seems to drop every in value each selling pressure enters the market, which naturally lifts stocks.

That being said, sellers are starting to come into the market at these elevated levels and it’s just a matter of time before we see a healthy pullback/correction. The past 10 session volatility has been creeping up as equities try to sell off. There will be a point when a falling dollar is not bullish for stocks but until then it looks like printing of money will continue devaluing of the dollar to help lift the stock market. Some type of pullback is needed if this trend is to continue and the markets can only be held up for so long.

Below is a chart of the USO oil fund and the SPY index fund. Crude has a tendency to provide an early warning sign for the strength of the economy. As you can see from the April top, oil started to decline well before the equities market did. This indicated a slow down was coming.

The recent equities rally which started in late August has been strong. But take a look at the price of oil. It has traded very flat during that time indicating the economy has not really picked up, nor does it indicate any growth in the coming months. This rally just may be coming to an end shortly.

Read the rest… Here.
