That was the decade that was....

Time, it seems, is full of misconception where people are concerned. Firstly, 1/1/10 is the start of a new decade. Anyone who thinks otherwise I'll be more than happy to welcome to the next decade when they get there a year later... But more than just being snarky about it, I can prove it.

Back around Christmas 1999 I was enjoying a Christmas Eve party with some family friends and was conversing with a nice young couple. I wished them well in the new Century and the husband chided me, telling me there was no year zero. He's a nice guy, well-educated and a creditable agent, like his father, with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. I gave him the opportunity to present his case.

I then asked him when he and his wife would have their first child. They smiled and reminded me about their seven-month old boy. I replied, "He's not one yet, so he doesn't exist.

That tattered relationship survived this particular conversation, but the point remains the same. We, as a people, have forgotten how to count. We forgot that fractions are elements of a greater whole. For a year to exist it must surely have started, but since it has not COMPLETED the full cycle it is NOT a year old at birth. Therefore, a seven-month old baby surely exists (unless of course you're baby-killing Liberal with a vacuum cleaner and an Obama bumper sticker....) and is well on his or her way to celebrating their FIRST birthday... or in other words a celebration of having lived one full year.

So when 1999 ended, the 20th century ended, because the 21st century had just been born and was well on its way toward it's first birthday (not a banner year, I'll grant you... but still important none-the-less...). I know it's splitting hairs and it's not really a major issue, however I dislike having to explain the very most basic elements of Temporal mechanics to lay-people. It's demoralizing to think we can't count properly.

But it's important to remember that we must maintain this information. If for no other reason than this...

"The Only reason for time is so that everything doesn't happen at once."

See you in the next decade, my friends...

They don't believe in Christmas even though they had it already...

The economy is in the tank, joblessness is officially 10.2 percent but more likely in the range of 18% thanks to "creative accounting" from our transparent government.

So the natural response to deal with this problem is for president hussein to drag major business leaders, academics (?!!!!!???!!!!!!!!!) and others to a job summit that doesn't even have as it's goal the core concept of job creation.

Now let's assess the situation:

1) Healthcare absorption: No time to delay. This is absolutely CRITICAL that it happen now.

2) Afghanistan: Sure... let's take a few months and then throw some troops in, but also we get to tell our enemies when we will be letting them alone to go ahead and do their thing (if only the Dems would do this with the Business world we'd rejoice...).

3) Cash for Clunkers: The U.S. Government bravely bought a bunch of cars and trashed them. Hell, paying the Crips to steal all those cars would have been more of a stimulus because then they could at least strip them down and sell them for parts. But NO, our beloved president hussein insisted that the vehicles just be trashed outright.

4) TARP: The U.S. Gov't. bravely bought a bunch of toxic property assets... or did they? No one really knows. The program is overseen by a Czar, isn't it? Last I heard Czars don't report to anyone but hussein. And now that money is going to get used for other programs, as per Nancy "Dragon Mama" Pelosi.

5) The Economy: Well shucks... they actually SAID they need to solve the Healthcare problem so hussein can start to concentrate on the economy. In other words, the economy doesn't impact upon HIS lifestyle, so why the hell would he care about us? No... the economy is not one of those things that the people don't want, so it's not being rammed down our throats with gleeful abandon.

So the Democrats were given a crap load of money to spend randomly without any long-term benefits, so THEY'VE had their Christmas already...

Meanwhile we are left to sit there and figure out not just "Can I buy my kids a toy for Christmas" but "Can I meet my mortgage payment for Christmas".

Are you better off now than you were two years ago?

Is anyone?

Great Googly Moogly!!!! The Libs are DESPERATE!!!!!!

In another tragically hysterical and desperate bid for trying to show that they are in control, the liberals have tossed yet another CNN "Senior Political Analyst" out to see what she could do to make Republicans feel bad about themselves. This appeared online Wednesday October 7th in the evening and it's one of the best drop-dead funny pieces I've read in ages.....

What exactly does it take to become a "Senior Political Analyst" for CNN anyway? What is the criteria? Knee pads for orally pleasuring president hussein? And I'm not being sexist here... Ed Rollins is no better on this point. The slavish devotion to defending the potentially bruised ego of the country's biggest nightmare president since Jimmy Carter is surely a prime qualifier for the post. That and a near complete lack of historical perspective.

Borger has come to the conclusion in only a scant nine and a half months that Republicans aren't exactly eager to sign onto hussein's crazy political death ride for the US of A. The fact that she sees the razor's edge we are sliding down as something wondrous and so spectacular that she insists her beloved Fuhrer MAKE the Republicans agree with him on something is not exactly Germaine to the issue at hand... but it DOES help to color her naivety somewhat.

But enough hyperbole....

With astounding grace and acumen she sums up the Conservative's primary take on what SHOULD be done... cut taxes, put more money back in the pockets of the people, and have more jobs by eliminating the deficit. Then she goes and spoils it all by pointing out this is all untested fantasy material... a sort of socio-political Playboy Centerfold of Utopian and unreachable dreams... except that they are NOT.... or more technically, they WERE NOT.... until her beloved leader president hussein went and spent more money than Caligula on a particularly hedonistic and self-destructive bent...

She then makes the somewhat amusing point that Republicans are a bunch of name-callers.... tossing aside such hideous accolades as "socialist", environmentalist, and "dithering commander-in-chief". But she doesn't help her cause any by in the same breadth providing the very real and intractable justifications for these.

And then she has the balls to make the charge that Republicans are actually rebounding in popularity due to the persistent saber-rattling... as if this were a conccept never even considered by her beloved Reichmeister, president hussein. Hell, the Democrats practically invented "Lie, rinse, repeat.... lie, rinse, repeat..." as a way to get their points pounded into the world.

The only part of that we didn't pick up on was the lying.

And horrors, it's turning out to be a good thing for the Republicans! What shocking news! Especially when you consider that a few short months ago the Democrats and the yellow journalists were patronizingly "helping the Republicans" by telling us we should get rid of that loudmouth Rush Limbaugh. Yes... they really were concerned that we needed their help then.

Now, I think they are really concerned... but more because we DON'T need their help.

The GOP has adopted one of it's best tactics in years... one which is unassailably working and is frightening the hell out of the Dems... we have picked up on hussein's nom deplume for us as "The Party of No" and we have refused to play along with destructive, burdensome and unnecessary socialist programs which threaten the very fabric of our nation.

That means the Dems will have no legitimate.. or even potentially salient illegitimate means to blame Republicans for the failures that are inevitable in all of this. That makes the whole thing a Dem party.

And now that it's a Dem party, it's clear they are sweating buckets because even THEY know it won't work.

Health care... the wet dream of every socialist liberal in the Western world, will bankrupt the economy and as a typical government-run fiasco will rapidly go broke, taking down with it many other programs and side-businesses.

Or did we not learn lessons from:

Social Security
Medicare
Cash-For-Clunkers

To name but a few disasters.

So what does "Senior Political Analyst" Gloria Borger suggest to fix all of this?

FORCE the GOP to go along with the Dems.

And how exactly do you do that?

Start acting like Republicans.

I don't see that happening.

What I DO see as happening is a slate of angry Americans who have seen the true face of the Democrat party this summer.... the hideous visage and Mickey Mouse voice of creepy neo-human Barney Franke and the twins of terror, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid as they trashed fellow Americans and threatened and cajoled us... called us terrorists, racists and Nazis.

I see the 2010 election as one of an evolutionary step-forward for Americans....

2010: The year we make Comeback!

So enjoy the next 12 months Dems.... then it's house-cleaning time... and you can keep low-rated CNN in your pocket all you want... it's not going to help!

The planting of a seed of discontent....

Well.... where to begin... why did I drop off the face of the earth? A couple of reasons. This blogging is very draining work and sometimes VERY lonely. It doesn't exactly make me popular with my wife, who shares the core concerns, but believes I am too radical on the issues.

I love my wife dearly, and I needed to stop for a little while and just be her husband. And what a good time to choose to do so, as life has been VERY hectic the past two months. This past week alone my son got badly hurt in chorus class (a knee injury in chorus? WTF?????) our one-eyed cat started bleeding from the eye socket just as we finished medicating one of the others for a severe snot0production issue.... and my wife came home from work at lunchtime the other day to find emergency vehicles all around our house because of the man with the broken leg who had fallen off the scaffolding of our neighbor's chimney repair work... onto our driveway..... and then just because we had not had enough grief.... I pulled a muscle fairly severely while going to a tradeshow in Vegas. It was so bad the good folk at the Sands Expo had to take me to my booth in a wheelchair. I'm still hobbling pretty nastily as I write this in the T terminal of JFK Airport as part of my "Very long night" of trying to get home to Buffalo.

So you can see, I didn't stop caring, I re-charged.

And WOW!!!!! That's what I have to say.

America has seriously begun to step up to the plate and demonstrate what it is that makes us Americans. I am sooo impressively proud to know so many people out there care the way they do. Town Hall meetings designed to send the one message that thick-headed Dems and name-only Repubs could understand... namely that we're pissed and our numbers are growing, and the BS had better stop soon.

And then there's the Two million man march on DC last weekend.... man, I'm sorry I was not a part of that, although I had my hands pretty full at the time....

And the emergence of Glenn Beck as a loud and exceptionally vocal voice calling for action.... he MAY be a bit radicalized, but to be honest that's the kind of energy that we need right now.

This mobilization, as Rush pointed out (himself quoting other sources on the issue....) without a central charismatic figure is te PERFECT antithesis to president hussein. It is a statement of the power of the Conservative movement, and the incredible central truth of our movement that we DON'T need idols to lead us.... we make up our own minds.

Then there's former President Jimmy Carter, beloved by millions of foreigners for his unwavering conviction to suck energy and life from the United States... a man whose resume is pock-marked with the greatest failings of any presidency in the past fifty years (including LBJ...) who got trotted out to add fire to the liberal mantra that to oppose hussein is to be a racist.

You might as well ask for Hugo Chavez to side with you.... there's the same amount of love for country in that corner of the globe as you'll get from the peanut guy.

But what really blows my top with joy is the recent release of the Acorn undercover videos.

We are witness to the birth of the New Republicans... the people who make tsunamis in the Democrat ranks with just a few simple actions.... who refuse to be broken by the Grotesque Government that is president hussein's regime.

North Carolina Senator Joe Wilson (R) became a hero to the people with of all things only two words. Two words uttered at the right place, at the right time, and expressing the frustrtations and angers of millions of Americans.

Three words if you ask NY Times columnist Maureen Dowd, who in her own racist mind heard the word "Boy" included in the attack on hussein.

I feel so much less alone. I feel like a voice is emerging out of the chaos and it is not one person... it is a group mind... the True Republicans, the ones who refuse to be dictated to and refuse to pander to the special interests of the president. It's a voice you and I can and should join in on.

I am struck at the number of times people have had to apologize to hussein for minor infractions of courtesy. Bush never received these platitudes form people, nor did Reagan. Clinton was such a happy-go-lucky guy he was actually hard to offend.

But Obama is a VERY sensitive guy. He demands attention, and he demands leniency, and he demands that you accept not receiving leniency from him. He is growing ever more pissed off and he is in real danger of doing something big and rebellious to try to show us who the boss is.

I say we let him. It was a mistake to criticize the address to the students of America in advance, becuase then he had time to water it down to something innocuous, just to show he wasn't really gonna indoctrinate anybody. We should have let him do that EXACTLY as he planned.

We should let president hussein play by his own rules, and show him to the people for what he is. A man with deep-seated hatred for the US. A man who despises us.

On my red-eye flight from Vegas last night I was watching Greta Van Susteran on Fox News. She played a clip of hussein speaking about honoring a fallen soldier with the Congressional Medal of Honor. No doubt the man was very deserving of the award... our servicemen and women have been in combat for several years in an urelenting battle against evil, and they continue to this day to make us proud... but the telling of the president was in his choice of words.

He read off words such as honor and sacrifice and then proceeded to point out how Americans forget what those words mean, and how we use those weighty words carelessly. He then goes on to say how this particular soldier undertsood those words and demonstrated them with the ultimate sacrifice.

Was it really necessary to trash Americans as idiots who have no understaqnding of what our soldiers do in order to praise this man? For president hussein it was essential. It is his view of Americans that we do NOT know anything. That we do not have his level of intelligence, and we CAN be easily insulted so long as he wraps the words in praise for another.

Honestly, at this point he is no longer capable of insulting Americans. It is expected that he will seek the low road, and denigrate anything right and fair.

And now president hussein is learning the lesson the Japanese learned at the start of World War II.... he has awakened a sleeping Giant.

Time for Americans to start tearing at each other again... another bonus in the news....

The New York Times, ripe with the summer doldrums because the only thing left to report about in the country is the excesses and abuses of president hussein, have decided to go back to the well and start a good old fashioned feeding frenzy again.

In this piece found linked to Yahoo!.com the author points out that Andrew J. Hall is getting a $100 million dollar bonus. Now they could have been crass and written it out like so: $100,000,000.00 but for some strange reason they showed restraint.

The cons: He is getting this bonus from Citigroup whom he sub-contracts for, and they took $45 Billion in our money to stay afloat.

The pros: He was contractually liable for a fee relative to what he made for Citigroup, apparently a common practice, and he made Citigroup a meager $2,000,000,000.00 in profit. That's $2 Billion for those of you in the know. So his bonus is 1/20th or rather 5% of the total he made for Citigroup.

Now he's under pressure to not take the money, amid speculation that some of his dealings may (note: they do not say he DID...) have contributed to the financial troubles are country has seen. The article takes pains to say that while he's a nice guy for his sort he's also an example of "capitalism at its most unbridled" all the while acknowledging that it was his own efforts that helped contribute to the financial strength of Citigroup.

Apparently now Mr. Hall is seeking to separate himself from Citigroup, and hopefully he will take his talents to some other country and make some other business in some other part of the world significantly wealthier....

That'll show him!

Christ almighty, there are some really retarded people in positions of power in the US Government right now.

Among other things, if the terms of the contract Mr. Hall had with Citigroup were to be altered, Citigroup and the US Government had an obligation to tell him so BEFORE he made them all that money (Isn't Hall a taxpayer? What about Citigroup, don't they pay taxes?).

And then on top of that, if employees are agoing to get sacked for making their companies profitable, isn't that just plain un-American?

I could go on, but you get the idea.

Post-Racial Politics?

In a startlingly frightening AP article about the pending confirmation of Sonya Sotomayer to the Supreme Court the author Julie Hirschfield-Davis inserted the phrase "Post-Racial Politics" in an effort to paint president hussein as not a part of the hideous back-stabbing going on in DC.

The article is ostensibly a reporting piece on Senator Harry "Mr. Fair Play" Reid threatening Republicans with a backlash against them for acting like impressively polite Democrats by opposing Sotomayer. This is a little like a teacher yelling at her students for not parsing Pi to the last digit fast enough.

The reality of the piece however is far more sinister and telling... It reeks of racial politics so heightened that logical discourse is a hindrance to the flow and ebb of Government legislation.

The AP helpfully points out that while the GOP might be accused of assaulting a Hispanic and therefore be guilty of racial discrimination (gee.... all I ever heard were concerns about her qualifications and her mindset where legislative law is concerned... kind of the point of the Judicial Nomination hearings...) the Dems also risk a backlash if they appear to be pushing her for her race rather than her credentials.

Umm...

The Dems already blocked a Hispanic candidate of Bush's for the sole purpose of having the bragging rights to being the first to have a Hispanic judge on the Supreme Court. Forget the politics, it's all about who gets there first.

The disgust level of this is even further ratcheted up by the author's mention, as cited above, of the current "post-racial politics" position.

First off, who decided electing a mulatto made things post-racial? Second, who are the ones most concerned with race lately anyhow? The Dems cry racism if they don't get enough sprinkles on their mid-afternoon cupcakes, and prominent Black and Mulatto Americans have a hard time trying to justify perceived racial profiling in a case so CLEARLY elevated and created by a racially bigoted Black Man that even a Black Panther might be able to figure it out... (okay... that might be a bit of a stretch... but you get the idea...).

There is NOTHING post-racial in the country right now. The Black Community won't let the whole "mulatto president" thing go and the press is acting like eager little puppies trying desperately to please their masters to ensure that we know how enlightened we are and how lucky we are that color is not an issue, even as it is being screamed in our faces.

And all of this, my friends, is a smoke screen to distract us from the very real issue of socialized medicine.

Now stuff that in your pipe and smoke it!

We cried too, General Powell....

General Colin Powell was just interviewed again on a whole host of subjects by CNN.com and once again reveals that he is more of the flawed figure he first revealed himself to be last summer.

At first he talks about Professor Gates and he tries hard to paint a picture of Gates being the responsible party, but of course can't resist saying that the cops over-reacted. It's couched in more subtle language than president hussein used, but it's still there.

And then to add depth to the comment, the General goes on to say how he was once racially profiled at Reagan International Airport because no one believed he was the National Security Adviser to the president.

He claims it was because no one believed a black man could have been the NSA, but offers no proof.

So for a second time in recent weeks prominent black men have gotten out the word that failure to be recognized for their fame equals racism.

Racial profiling is not a funny thing. It can lead to all manner of terrible events. But the terrible crime of not being recognized for your fame is NOT racial profiling, it's more a matter of people being busy with their jobs and not paying too much attention to the news.

Which is also not a crime.

In just a few short weeks I will be going to a travelling seminar hosted by many prominent figures, among them Rudy Giuliani and General Powell. I'll resist the temptation to bring a bag of rotted tomatoes for Mr. Powell, but I no longer feel I have anything to gain from him.

He out and out admits in this interview that the reason... the ONLY reason... he wanted hussein to win the election was due to his skin color. Or to put it another way, because he racially profiled him.

He was so profoundly moved that a black man could get elected to the office of president he cried.

We on the other hand who love this country above all other considerations including skin color cried as well, but for completely different reasons.

What is so galling about Powell's remarks is that there was a time when I admired his work, his calmness and his ethics. I WANTED Colin Powell to run for president. I would have voted for him. He conveyed all the things that makes a man a man.

And I know when everything changed. The moment is palpable, and for a man of his stature was almost certainly a life-altering event. The day he stood at the podium of the United Nations and tried to gain international approval for the war in Iraq, and the entirety of the room laughed at him.

If you trace it, things were never the same after that. He became more quiet and subdued in the media, his politics were at odds with Bush's. Many post-Bush administration reports showed that he had become something of the outside influence to the inner circle due to his growing frustration over that moment.

And now he has lost the luster of what a lifetime of service to your country can bring to a man, and he has chosen petty racism over the safety of the country he so loved.

It was about race all along... Stoopid cops!!! (UPDATED)

Stoopid, stoopid Cambridge police officers!!!

What the hell were they thinking responding to a call of a man (black OR white...) breaking into the house of a Harvard Professor who was known to have been out of town?

And even worse, how egregious they must have been for not being particularly happy to find a belligerent man screaming racism while refusing to identify himself inside that house.

And then to top it all off they had the gall to have him arrested for disturbing the peace when he made a big deal about how he was a black man in America and upsetting the neighborhood.

And typical of life under the hussein regime, who does our commander-in-chief side with? The jackass goes off and calls the police stupid!

In every telling of the events by the media there is zero description of inappropriate behavior. However what DOES emerge is a picture of a black man with a chip on his shoulder the size of... well... Belgium... who is SUPPOSED to be a well-educated man, but can't have the presence of mind to cooperate with the police when they are trying to secure HIS property.

*** UPDATE*** As reported HERE president hussein once again speaks about how he could have said things differently, but refused to apologize for his words, instead trying to gloss over the whole thing by retardedly commending BOTH parties in the incident for being so upstanding about their behavior.

Apparently... and this is a leader of the free world, the highest elected official in the world, and the man to whom we are supposed to be attributing our noblest aspects from speaking ... in other words, the man who embodies what america is supposed to be all about.

And he believes refusing to cooperate with the police when simple obeyance of the law could have prevented ANY escalation of the incident characterizes Professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. as one of "...two good people in a circumstance in which neither of them were able to resolve the incident in the way in which it should have been resolved.". You have to remember, this is the man who threw his grandmother under the bus when she became politically undesirable a year earlier. His understanding of character leaves a tremendous amount to be desired.

****END UPDATE ***

Was it about racism? Damn right it was!! It was about how the black man is eager to get revenge on the white man!

Now don't get me wrong, I am in complete agreement with the idea that racism is a real issue in America, and while I have no concern for hussein's skin color (my vitriol is for something far more important, his hatred of Americans...) he is at the epicenter of a fundamental shift in racial tensions of which this idiot Harvard Prof. is only a symptom.

As I have mentioned, I recently sat on Grand Jury and the larger percentage of cases I heard involved people of color. This is not to say that people of color are the only troublemakers, but the one thing that I walked away with was that the willingness to commit crimes specifically directed against other people was demonstrated with far greater alacrity from people of color, and that crimes that were more individual in nature (i.e, DWIs, and so forth...) tended to be toward Caucasians.

hussein made the specific point in his jackass statement that traditionally a great disparage exists in the number of arrests of blacks compared to whites. In my tiny little month-long window into my local community I heard stories of home invasions, gang activities, savage stabbings and beatings that have left people permanently disabled, shaken to the core, and fearful. The perpetrators were almost always black.

My point is that perhaps the stereotype of the black as criminal might be better served if, as Bill Cosby suggests, black people stop crying racism and start building up their lives and striving for better. The ONLY way to stop this cycle is for people to take individual responsibility for their actions and start to encourage the English language as a native tongue, as opposed to ghetto-speak, and for learning to be encouraged over the quick and easy thrill of scoring a crack-deal.

Unfortunately, in this hussein-led country, big government is who is supposed to solve everything, so we are being told to just lay therein our own filth and reach our hands up to the great big teat of government until it tires of our cries and feeds us.

Sorry, that's not America.

And every day, in every way, retard president hussein showed us who he is and what he is... particularly when he jumps on the "black victim" bandwagon and tells America that our law enforcement officers are stupid.

This kind of irresponsible and racist leadership shouldn't be tolerated in our world, but nowadays being a loyal citizen is the new "black".

Global Warming rages on, and the stupid keeps getting stupider....

Worried about the rise in ocean temperatures? Worried that the world is burning up and there won't be anything left to tax if we don't act now, and act fiercely to stem this tide of desolation?

Well then chew on THIS piece of stupidity from who else... that's right... Yahoo! Associated Press... their motto: If it's retarded we'll report it....

I caught this interesting news article about a middle eastern dust storm so immense it was photographed from space. Y'know, a compelling human interest story about something that is uncommon here in the states, but very common in the mideast.

But you have to go to the mid-way point of the story to get to the meat of the subject....

Yup, it turns out that global warming in the form of ocean temperatures rising, is being caused by (get this...) a lessening of dust storms and a lessening of volcanic eruptions.

I couldn't make this crap up if I tried.

So what AP is dutifully reporting is that we can save our planet by triggering more volcanoes and by flooding the atmosphere with tons of bacteria-filled (their thing, not mine...) dust and sand from the deserts.

Now my science may be lacking here, but I was under the impression volcanic eruptions introduce tons and tons of carbon into the atmosphere which was... I've been told... the problem.

Maybe it's because man has nothing to do with them that it's all okay, but you know, it gets very frustrating trying to understand these things.

So if we were to drive a Dodge Volcano to work, even though it was terrible for the ecology, we could go ahead and claim how we were helping the oceans stay cool.

The masterful Joe Biden on the state of things...

In this ABC News interview between George Stephanopolis and the highest-ranking known bona fide US-born political official Joe Biden opens up on his feelings about the resignation of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin.

Now let me be clear about this, I LIKE Joe Biden. I like that he's hopeless non-sensical and mind-bogglingly stupid. He's fun that way. Does that make me seem biased?

I kind of thought so.

But listen to this guy and tell me what you think. In one portion of the interview, he talks about how the hussein administration misread the economy, how 9.5% unemployment is completely and totally bad, how the administration is still complaining that they inherited this mess, and how the stimulus package is working just swell and the administration is doing a wonderful job managing the economy.

umm.....

And then at the end of the piece he goes on to discuss Sarah Palin, and George asks him point-blank, does Joe believe that Sarah was the target of a smear campaign? Naturally Joe says no, that's not the case. But then he goes on to say that he respects her and he has to take her at her word that there is a portion of personal element to her decision to step down.

huh?

Does he take her at her word or does he think she's a loon?

This is what I love about the man. He can be truly counted on to Dan-Quayle the place up and confuse things something fierce. His words string together in what might "sound" rational, but they link up in ways which make no meaningful sense.

So to sum up from his interview:

Economy - badly misread.
Unemployment - staggeringly high and greater than expected
Stimulus Package - not doing its job yet, but working wonderfully
Sarah Palin - paranoid but respected. She's a liar, and he respects her.

He's a joy to behold, isn't he?

america's First Dependance Day

president hussein presides over the first new holiday for his country, america. It is, of course, Dependence Day.

This is the day we celebrate the dependence we have to come to put in our government to make our beds for us, cook our meals for us, tell us what is right and what is wrong.This is the day we celebrate our government taking over all our responsibilities for us and spoon-feeding us our education from the trough of politically appropriate sources.

Today we can open our hearts to all peoples in the land, unconcerned about their ideologies or their intent to harm us, and welcome them as our new neighbors. So if you're a protected pedophile, welcome in.. if you believe marriage is not a sacrament but rather a government-subsidized way of life, welcome in, if you believe Christianity is a scourge upon all mankind move right on up to the head of the line, son, and if you believe in wearing a collar stamped "property of hussein" welcome in.

Historically speaking, the press has always been about maintaining their Independence and about being the watchdogs against big government. Their role in world events in fact has been crucial over the past century in keeping the order and in protecting life and liberty.

Of course, that was back in the days when they cared about those things. In World War II, for instance, many times the media would cooperate with requests from the government to plant inaccurate information in the newspapers and yet nobody decries those actions because the goal was not to do social-reconstructive surgery and change the nature of this country, it was to use the fact that foreign agents were paying close attention to the domestic media and to mis-inform the bad guys.

Under president hussein it can reasonably argued that any misinformation he would ask the media to run with against foreign powers would come with warning labels an apology for just about everything America has done to date, a for-ward looking apology to those crimes we have not yet committed, and offers of financial restitution to all enemy combatants who we have physically disabled, in the form of 10% vouchers toward hybrid vehicles that will be designed to explode in a far more effective blast pattern than the current gas-guzzling and inefficient models Detroit now makes.

But back to the media....

The Washington Post graphics department printed up fliers and started circulating them to lobbyists and "association executives" offering unfettered access to not only their journalists and editors but to mover-and-shaker members of the hussein White House staff. The price? A paltry $250,000.00.

And even better? Where would these little tet-e-tets take place? At the home of the Washington Post publisher, Kathy Weymouth.

But that's not the really unbelievable part, because it could be reasoned that this was a desperate grab for quick cash from a major media outlet nearly $20 million in the hole (you would think hussein would only ask for a few sexual favors for a loan of that size....). No, the really unbelievable part is the counter-story that Ms. Weymouth is asking the American Public to buy.

The flyers were being distributed to targeted individuals without ANY APPROVAL WHATSOEVER and without having been vetted by the senior staff or Ms. Weymouth. In fact.... and here's the really great part.... the flyers apparently mis-represent the whole thing, and it only makes it LOOK bad because that's not really what the $250,000.00 is for.

So if Kathy Bigmouth is to be believed, some poor schlub in the graphics department heard the boss was throwing a party and decided that this event should be publicized. So that poor schlub generates a detailed graphic with information that was wholly made up, about how for $250,000.00 you, the intended target audience, can socialize not only with that poor schlub's co-workers (whom, it can reasonably be assumed, the poor schlub is enamored of and thanks his/her lucky stars they get to work with every day of his/her life...) but also with the ruling elite of DC who, without any reason to believe it will happen, Poor Schlub is promising will alight form their castle in the sky and come down to join in on.

You buying this?

Poor Schlub is a pretty resourceful person, because not only did he/she generate the graphic, but then he/she managed to use company equipment without authorization, print up the flier on company gloss paper (you don't waste these things on newsprint, that would be gauche....) and then also without any approval whatsoever used the power and authority of the graphics department to ensure that all of these fliers started circulating to lobbyists and others who might benefit.

Poor Schlub is an extremely loyal employee, don't you think?

Imagine that meeting... PS walks into the secretary's office for Ms. Bigmouth and asks if Ms. Bigmouth can see her.

"Why would I waste my time on the graphics department staff? That's what I hire janitors for? Ms. Bigmouth replies over the intercom.

"But Ms. Bigmouth (the name is changed to protect the stupid...) Mr. or Mrs. Schlub is standing right in front of me. What do I tell him or her?" the secretary opines.

Exasperated, Ms. Bigmouth replies "Tell Graphics to send a cart up here and retrieve their wayward puppy. I already told you I'm not to be disturbed while Obama music videos are playing in my office.!"

And so Poor Schlub is sent, somewhat tearfully, back to the basement office he/she works in.

Seriously, graphics people are NOT high on the decision-making scale, and for a flier of this sort to be generated and distributed to targeted individuals without any one's permission, and totally misrepresenting the truth (which, by the way, it can reasonably argued is the job of the editorial staff...) is pretty much incomprehensible.

Had the mistake been a comma, or maybe the time being half an hour off for the event, maybe I could buy that. But wholesale inaccurate information and targeted distribution?

Someday we'll look back on this and laugh...

Inherit the Windfall....

As we approach the first Independence Day in US history where we must look around and scratch our heads and try to remember what it was we were celebrating, we look to the people in charge for reassurance. Yes.... logic and wisdom would tell you that that is a fool's errand, but sometimes you have no other options.

• president hussein is ruining the country at a striking pace...

• michelle hussein is being kept sleeveless and quiet because she is close to unable to keep her big yap shut and sooner or later she'll blurt out the plot against America that they are working on.

• Joe Biden (I CAN use capital letters with him because he's an American... a retard, but an American...) continues coming out every once in a while and says wondrously fantastical things that defy even hussein's logic.

• DragonQueen Pelosi has narrowly averted being tossed out by her loyal compadres for daring to lie about what she knew when she knew it regarding torture.

• Human facsimile Barney Frank has this year made it clear he supports cruel and targeted punitive taxation as a means of cheating American citizens and instilling fear in them, making him the second biggest domestic terrorist in US history.

• The UAW are hailing their successful theft of GM and doing NOTHING about the brand new 22% unemployment destroying the largest cities in Wisconsin, owing to that self-serving measure.

• Hillary Clinton has proven that her foreign-policy acumen is beyond reproach as she managed to get Pakistan nearly f**ked over by "encouraging" them to give sanctuary to the Taliban.... with whom we are.... I thought... at war. But that's okay, it takes away the emphasis we had on her blaming the US for the rise in Mexican Drug Cartel Wars that threaten to spill into USA cities.
  

• Colin Powell has elicited the coveted title of head of the Republican Party by saying how great president hussein is.

• Janet Napolitano is on record that she will willingly and purposefully violate her oath of office by failing to enforce laws, as well as by allowing (encouraging?) written reports that the public are not meant to see in which Conservatism is equated with terrorism. Not, of course, with any factual basis, but still...

• Janeane Garafolo (who only THINKS she has a say in politics...) is happy to equate critical review of the political process that violates Constitutional law with racism on the sole basis that there is a black man involved.

Yes, there is far more out there to blog about.

So what is my message in all of this? Is it just to say that I don't like them and I want to bitch? Is it some misguided sense of patriotism that is streaking down my spinal column? Could it be the understanding that our distaff president hates dissidents of any kind and sucks the c**ks of petty dictators in hopes he will be loved by them and treated as one of the gang?

We are, for the moment, powerless to stop the wholesale abuses being perpetrated by the ruling people in Washington. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. It would be far worse if the power shift was more evenly balanced and these crimes were still being committed.

So lets give the liberals all the rope they need and sooner or later they will sexually asphyxiate themselves with it.

The only confused people here are the left...

In what is becoming something of a national-interest legal issue, the Supreme Court overturned a controversial ruling against white firefighters in New Haven, Connecticut who were denied promotions they earned through test scores in a test which was then thrown out because no minorities who took the test passed.

In this amusing AP article on Yahoo! much is made by the losing side, the Labor law attorneys, about how this has created a minefield for employers who are legitimately seeking to remain fair to minority employees. After all... what possible guidelines could they have for basing promotions on now?

If I were distaff president of the united states hussein my response might be....

"....Ahhh, we can no longer afford to continue to grade people on the same old tired standards that have for too long ruled this land of yours. We must act, and we must do so right away, to ensure that everyone is treated equally, and with respect. So in accordance with the powers I have appropriated I am abolishing this unfair and slanted right-wing test and I call upon the members of Congress to toady up a new version, one that will be approved by my new Czar of Fairplay Susan Sarandon, a set of standards for equally distributing the powers of this position. Additionally, due to the alarming situation here in the fire-suppression industry, I have taken control of all fire-fighting services and have capped the pay of all fire chiefs. Now do not make any mistakes that I intend to be in the business of putting out fires... I have never put out a fire in my life and I don't want to start now... but I can no longer stand by, nor should any of us, idly, while these horrible irresponsibilities go unchallenged.".

Or you could just test the candidates to determine their abilities.

But that's just me being silly.

Suddenly American troops aren't such a bad thing....

Just when you think NOBODY likes us overseas it becomes clear that they really will miss us. At least that's what I'm getting from THIS AFP piece found on Yahoo! news.

Just as we are about to pull our troops away from the civilian centers and allow autonomous Iraqi troops to police their own properties, we find out that wait a second... umm... they don't want us to leave.

The same Iraqis who we have been told hate our guts.... the ones president hussein has said are being systematically tortured into horrible submission by us, are concerned about the vacuum of power left behind in the northern region of Iraq, historically a Kurd-dominated province.

The Kurds, for their part, have good reason to hate Americans. George Bush Sr. gave them every reason to believe that post-Gulf War he would provide material support for a coup attempt against Saddaam. That support never showed, and hundreds of Kurds were slaughtered as they wondered where their American friends had gone to.

Flash forward to present day, and the Kurds are boxed in between their own country and the increasingly hostile Turkish government. Smell the fear? I'd be making any kind of power-grab I could there too.

So the people of northern Iraq don't want the Americans to leave. We provided peace, stability, an opportunity to rebuild under protective eyes.

What cads we are. How inhuman could we be?

We want to bring our men and women home safely and we pray for the day they need not be placed in harm's way, and that day is getting further and further away from us as each new movement by our beloved overlord becomes known. I am grateful that we could secure the nation and protect the Iraqis.

In truth, the lives lost in Iraq from US military is dwarfed by the murders and bombings and Al Qaeda tortures committed by other countries and by the Iraqis themselves. With great effort and very rare slip-ups, our soldiers have conducted themselves with great honor and held no malice toward the Iraqi citizens.

I'm proud to support our troops and more proud to challenge and harass the authority of the interloper sitting on the throne of the White House. For the same reasons.

A fond farewell to Farrah Fawcett....

Since I had the good taste to use the tragic and unexpected death of 80s icon Michael Jackson for a cheap political point, I felt I should take a moment to discuss the true tragic news of the day.

Farrah Fawcett has passed away. She has a long and painful bout with rectal cancer and her story, while presented in a recent made-for-cable movie, has really not been highlighted.

Let me tell you why she is worthy of the time to write about. Michael Jackson, the King of Pop, the mega-mutant Rock Star, will be feted for weeks to come and his passing will have humbly reminded Obama that we need a better and more comprehensive health care plan. Much will be made of his legacy and his wonderousness.... but still he'll feel a vague sadness for Michael Jackson.... oh wait...

But Farrah likely will not be given great accolades. She will have a few small testimonials, and soon, very soon life will go on and she will be kind of remembered.

But she deserves far better from us than that. Farrah had two choices when she made the somewhat questionable decision to leave Charlie's Angels at the height of her popularity: Continue with the cheesecake and fluff or go for the serious stuff.

Well okay, we know she didn't film her own version of "The Razor's Edge", so she went into features and made some tepid movies. Honestly, I recall seeing "Sunburn" but apart from her in an orange jumpsuit and I think Charles Grodin wandering around, I don't really recall much more than that. She went on to a few other films, including the dizzily idiotic, yet still compelling "Saturn Three" with Kirk Douglas as her boyfriend, and Harvey Keitel's toy robot as her stalker.

These films proved to her that she would never be taken seriously as an actress.

THAT's when she became worthy of our praise.

No more bra-less roles, no more giggly, jiggly parts in silly frothy films... she made a conscious choice to go the harder, less travelled route and made films like "The Burning Bed" and "Extremities" for which she practiced on Broadway for a very long time.

She WORKED very hard and soon she destroyed the poster image and re-invented herself as a fully formed person. She took a conservative value to EARN what she gained through hard work, perseverance and determination, and it paid off.

There were times, particularly in the last ten years or so, where she came across as ditsy or weird, slathering her nude body with paint and rolling around on canvas for her kids... or going a little nutty on a late-night talk show to the point where nobody knew what she was saying or doing...

She has not always been the paragon of virtue. But she earned respect for being capable of doing the one thing she will always be remembered to do... which was to act.

Some people will tell you that acting is just playing and it's easy. That's not true. Anyone who has tried understands it's a real discipline, and it requires much more than just good looks, it requires a skill-set that most people simply do not possess. A skill-set you do not get in school.

While the rest of the world grinds their teeth over Michael Jackson, I will raise a can of energy drink to Ms. Fawcett, remember all the fun times and the scary times, and thank her for being Farrah.

There was no other like her and it seems this world will not see her like again.

Important news about the King of Pop's death.....

So as to not upset all the crying children, the mourning women who never got to make love to him, the men who wanted to be him, and Gods from pagan religions like Christianity who envied him, etc....

The truth about the recent news about the Death of the King of Pop is....

They were talking about Michael Jackson.

Not Barack Obama.

You can all relax now....

It's okay...

Obama's just fine.

He was no where near there anyhow...

Really....

It was Michael Jackson.

Feel better now?

Climate change you can believe in....

president hussein has been hard at work feverishly trying to press through one of his many efforts to f**k America up, the Climate Change bill.

You remember the plan... that's right... the sensible one... the one where America eliminates every inexpensive and functioning power source we rely on in favor of mystical voodoo from God only knows where.

This is the equivalent of a Doctor finding out his patient has a high cholesterol count so he treats the patient by draining his blood and replacing it with a mixture of milk and honey. Sure the intentions are good, but the existing infrastructure just isn't gonna pump milk and honey.

In this Yahoo!AP report, Republican claims that this bill will destroy jobs are countered with the sage wisdom of both hussein and dragon lady pelosi... to wit...

Republicans: crippling taxes for vital fuels will strangle American workers' budgets, raise prices on the resources themselves, and force the industries working in those fields to pay out punitive fees for just being in business.

hussein: No it won't.

Okay, I'm sold. With logic like that I can't help but be convinced that president hussein has our best interests at heart.

And let's not forget the sage and well-laid-out plan dragon lady has for us: "It'll create millions of new jobs."

Does she get paid based upon specificity?

Now let's take a look at American exceptionalism. When this was still a nation of thinkers and not dunces, we would work together to overcome legitimate obstacles and we would work long and hard and become incredibly innovative when we were faced with very real, very legitimate problems to solve.

The Japanese have decimated our naval forces in the Pacific in World War II? One aircraft carrier, a host of brave submarines and destroyers, and the guts of the finest fighting forces in the world would turn the tide and kick Nip hinder until the US Industrial complex could knock out more aircraft carriers, and the trained men to run them.

But you see, therein lies the problem. We are NOT facing a real challenge. There is not a real timetable, and the threat of Global Warming (now called climate change to account for the myriad masses of data piling up to support the intelligent viewpoint that the planet ISN'T F**king warming up....) are just smoke screens to get us frightened into action or inaction. We are NOT banding together to overcome these odds because the only thing odd about them is the credibility with which these people seem to believe they have.

This bill will harm yet another crucial sector of the American Marketplace, and one in which so many other elements operate with.

I sure hope those retarded baboons that voted for president hussein are happy. In a few short months he's tearing down what real Americans took years to build. But that's unfortunately the truth. Yes, hussein appears to be accomplishing a great deal. It's so much easier to destroy than to create.

Retards! Flat-out ignorant baboons! I'm losing any hope of reconciling with these slack-jawed touchy-feely types who thought this guy was a good choice.

Okay, McCain wasn't much of a choice, but just now Andy Dick would almost seem like a better choice, and he's somebody for whom I pray painful explosive diarrhea kills him.

Voted for president hussein? You're a retard.

The 2010 Census....

There's been a mild resurgence in the "should we fill out the 2010 Census form" debate. The belief is that the Census form will be much more detailed and will ask for far more personal information from U.S. Citizens than has ever been asked.... questions many feel are overly intrusive.

So, even though I had already weighed in on this some months ago by declaring that one should really only answer those questions one believes are valid.... I wanted to see if a sample questionnaire in inf act exists to review. I did not find one, however I did find THIS information.

As you can see, the form is very trimmed down, the info is very basic, and it appears there would be nothing that would be untoward here.

My first reaction was "Well... okay... we just got all worked up over nothing...."

And then my second reaction kicked in.....

What is so different from this very simple form that not only was ACORN called in to participate, but they have been going to every single address in the country specifically to GPS-paint every front door of every dwelling?

Why would anyone WANT ACORN to collect this very basic information? Why would the people from the bureau that usually handle this not be up to the task of getting a properly shortened and simplified form filled out?

Why ACORN?

Of course, a thinking person might already have an answer for this pertinent question.

Finding the sublime in those little Obama moments...

I'm going to be up front and honest about this.... this is really minor league stuff here. I'm including it just because these two things are kind of indicative of president hussein in ways too ludicrous to explain otherwise.

First, I was watching "American Dad" on Fox this evening (that's right, I went there....) and there was one of those interminable Obama infomercial things where he tells us things. Tonight's was at least holiday-themed. His message.... "be a good father. It doesn't take much, all you have to do is go to the park or to the zoo".

So I waved goodbye to my family, got up and went to the zoo.

Told my wife and son I'd be back in a few hours.

As a sad post-script to this, my son, also thankfully not a liberal, cornered me and said "You never listen to anything this guy tells you to do!". I replied... "Hey, My President just gave me an order!!!!".

Well, it seemed pretty funny at the time....

...................................................


So the next thing is looking at the latest news bits on Sci-Fi Wire... the Sci-Fi channel's website.

Apparently Michael Bay, creator of the world's noisiest films, fell in love with the magnificence of the man and fired Jon Voight from his presidency for Transformers 2 in favor of another fictional president, Barack Obama.

It seems Bay inserted news footage of the Obamanator into the film with reports that he was worried about Robot Insurance for the elderly, or some such crap.

Why? Well, when the two met each other by accident and Bay tripped over himself reciting his resume he became so excited that he had been recognized that he just HAD to put the man in his movie.

My wife was physically unable to sit through all fourteen and a half hours of the confusing and directionless first film largely due to the combination of flashing lights and screeching high-pitched noises. She literally became ill.

Now it's my turn.

I'm Dr. Calamity and I approve this message.

And we'd have gotten away with it if it weren't for those meddling kids....

Hello, everybody.... back from Grand Jury duty and ready to get back into the fight.

And speaking of fights, our beloved and most holy master president hussein has peeled away another layer of the veneer that hides the real face behind the throne. I refer of course to the current situation in Iran. Read this story on CNN.com.

A little back-story... for roughly 50 years the Iranians have had a troubled relationship with us. We did a few bad things... and in fact we do kind of owe them a bit for it, except that they have become so belligerent and insular that it's hard to develop relations with them to "mend the fence". But you know what... we're all adults here... we should be able to swallow a little pride on both sides and start working together.

Yet the Iranians' anger has become so great in the past thirty years that they have become the largest supporter of terrorism in the mid-east, and they CONTINUALLY interfere with other countries developments. Don't believe me? Just ask any Iraqi you might happen to meet.

Or you could ask any one of scores of hundreds of American soldiers who met their ends not at the hands of the Iraqi's they were fighting, and now working side by side with, but from the cowardly faceless assault of IUDs with armor-piercing molten copper designed to take away any protection at all from their deadly blasts.

What I'm basically saying is, Iran isn't exactly sitting in the moral high ground either.

So now that a general election has (predictably) been seen to be rigged in favor of the incumbent, the Iranian population, notably the younger people, are (not very typically...) enraged and rioting in the street. And this with the knowledge that they could be attacked by their own military.

Now ordinarily a sitting U.S. President would issue a condemnation of Iran for cracking down on its own people for exercising their right to demonstrate against an unfair election process.

But these are extraordinary times, and they call for the extraordinary talents of Mr. Apologist for the United States Barack Hussein Obama. A man so special and impressive that only he could classify the events in Iran as "... a vigorous debate".

He is oh so worried that his america not be seen to be interfering with Iran because, y'know, they're kind of touchy about that sort of thing.

Let me clue the commander-in-chief in on a little secret.... IT'S NOT F**KING INTERFERING WITH ANOTHER COUNTRY WHEN YOU OPENLY OPPOSE THEIR RATHER PUBLICLY VIOLENT CRACK-DOWN OF THEIR OWN PEOPLE!

Cripes.... doesn't he understand that?

Actually, yes.... he does.

What bothers president hussein here is that the people have chosen to complain about their own government.

And as we all know, that never sits well with this president.

I'm Dr. Calamity and I approve this message.

My Duty to My Government...

I owe you all an apology. I kind of dropped off the face of the interweb for a couple of weeks for two reasons. First, I am serving on Grand Jury in New York State which is about the most interesting and important job a citizen can do for his society short of joining the armed forces.

Naturally, I can not discuss any of it, which is a matter of law. But I can tell you that once you have done this you have learned a great number of things you may not have known before. I am, for a change, one of "The People" in "The People Vs. ....". I'm not actually referring to any case here, but rather the phrase itself.

Second, I was getting a bit unsure for a little while about what all this was for. Was it right, my ranting online about things I can not change? Was this a constructive process?

And I've come to the conclusion that yes, this IS important.

And I owe the Grand Jury service for helping me to reach my decision.

You see, in Grand Jury you are one of 23 jurors. You are NOT there to determine guilty or innocent, you are there to determine is the case worth making against the defendant in the first place. You find out quickly that the number 23 was NOT come upon randomly. It is sufficient people that it prevents an accidental grouping of like-minded people. It prevents any one person from having too much of a say.

So in many ways, I have been one of many, many bloggers out there sitting in de facto Grand Jury duty against the defendant, one Barack Obama. We can not determine his guilt or innocents, we can just review the evidence and submit it to you, the readers, and you have to make up your own mind.

And the frustration that many of us feel and write about, that is also a necessary part of the process. It is our "rat in a cage" feeling that we are only one voice, while the defendant in this case, the afore-mentioned Barack Obama, appears to have a very powerful and in-control attorney who threatens to stop the case against him. That would be the Democratic party and their strangle-hold of the U.S. Government, and the mainstream media, which is just breathlessly in love with Obama.

And I can tell you from experience, a defendant with a bit of acumen at this sort of thing can easily win over a jury even if his story has swiss-cheese level holes in it. Do NOT underestimate the power and control that a winning and sympathetic personality can have. It can make people think things that are just plain not substantiated by the facts.

And no one has done so with such flair and style and capricious damage to the country as Obama. I still find myself aghast at the idea that such hatred against our country was ever willingly installed by the people.

But then that's one of the things you learn in Grand Jury. Some people will not, can not be swayed by the facts when they have a good emotional feeling. Facts are the province of the rich balding white man. Facts represent "The Man". Facts are something that liberal-minded people think are tools to confuse them and harm them, and distract them from their feelings.

Facts.

Feelings.

Which would you rather were the governing decision-making process?

But in this country, in this time, in this political climate, it is considered poor form to use facts in your arguments. It is considered divisive and makes people suspicious of you.

Some days I almost regret that my hairline has remained intact.

I wish I could be more specific than I am, but I don't wish to find myself on the wrong side of the Grand Jury process.

president hussein has really helped the Auto Industry...

I'm not sure if I would want to be a U.A.W. leader just now. On the one hand they have president hussein working his damndest to take care of them, and yet, on the other hand they have president hussein working his damndest to take care of them.

Damned if he does and damned if he doesn't....

No matter how you slice it, the word "Damned" just keeps crawling back in to the lexicon.

GM's post hussein image is starting to take shape and it is being hailed as a major success on his part. He has stripped them of advertising ability, cut their ranks in half, and re-distributed ownership to the UAW, except for what he himself has kept.

Did you read that? The UAW's membership was halved in that company.

I'm not a union member, nor particularly a supporter of unions, but isn't their goal to have as many zombie-drone workers as possible?

And yet their master, president hussein, has cut in half the number of GM employees.

I'd say this is a Pyrrhic victory on the part of the UAW. They own a portion of the wealth, but the wealth is in a company no longer capable of producing in a competitive format, and even if they were, they can't advertise fairly against foreign competition.

So hussein is trying to kill the industry he promised to rescue, and at the same time he's badly wounding the union he rewarded for their fidelity in voting for him by removing their limbs.

Did I already use the word "Damned"? I forget.

And on a side-note, much of what hussein has been touching in the private sector has resulted in mass layoffs. Sure we'll help you save your company, but what's left of it when we're done won't be enough for vultures to pick over.

Makes you proud to live in hussein's america, doesn't it?

Now it seems to me that president hussein spent... ummm... $870,000,000,000.00 only four months ago, in a bid to spark the economy and rebuild the nation. How many jobs has he created? Well, he CLAIMS so far 25 police officers in Ohio....

And how many people have LOST THEIR JOBS due to the actions of president hussein?

Like with the Economic Stimulus Package before it, the number is too high for most people to comprehend.

In the 2,010 edition of Websters' Dictionary, under the phrase "Epic Fail" should be a picture of the historic mulatto president hussein.

(Postscript: Just ran across THIS news piece that kind of hammers my point home appropriately...)

WHY Republicans shouldn't question Sotomayer....

It's official. The leftist liberal MSM are punch-drunk with power...

The VERY FIRST LINE of this article makes the rest of the wasted grouping of letters that tacitly form words, is representative of all that is wrong in the world.

So, in much the same way that color was not an issue with president hussein (until, at least, after he became the president... and then people wouldn't shut up about it....), race once again is so sensitive an issue that any kind of fight against this woman on purely logical grounds is immediately nullified by further damaging the Republican Party.

First, if her nomination is that big a concern maybe she should not have been nominated. After all, it's not like she's there for her capacity, but rather for her gender and her race...

Second, the Republican Party as it stands right now is a worthless bunch of idiots incapable of deciding how to tie their shoes let alone put up a cohesive team.

Conservatism is not the same as Republicanism, and it's high time the two be sorted out and separated. Colin Powell, who considers himself a Republican, is so firmly behind the desecration of the United States of America he might as well put on a skimpy cheerleader outfit and knee-pads and go cheer on hussein in person (this, assuming he already hasn't done so...).

So let the Republican Party cave to pressure to keep the Hispanic vote, which of course they weren't exactly in the running for anyhow, and let them listen to so-called moderates.

The time has come to alienate the Republicans for selling themselves down the river, and to form a more solid base for the Conservative Party, and make it the central contender against all the unholiness that is in charge right now.

If Hispanics are unhappy with Conservatives for opposing Sotomayer, then they are unworthy of calling themselves Conservatives. Afterall , Sotomayer is against the things that make America great. So those people are lost anyhow.

Conservatism does not bow to public opinion, it forms public opinion. Republicans can bend and bow and suck all they want...

It won't help them one bit.

I'm Dr. Calamity and I approve this message.

Maybe they shouldn't have dished it in the first place....

To be honest I had about five different things I've wanted to post about in the past few days, including a few personal ones, but this being a Holiday weekend I was comfortable with holding back. But as THIS NEWS ARTICLE SHOWS it is incumbent upon me to jump on this one quickly... and so I have to break my holiday embargo briefly.

The RNC has launched an ad campaign equating Nancy Pelosi with strict and potentially lesbian James Bond character Pussy Galore. Honestly, from the 69 year old woman's point of view, this might even be considered flattering. And yet the mainstream media and the Democrats are aghast because.... (gasp!!!!) it's not in good taste.

In fact, they argue, it's unseemly to attack someone by targeting their gender. Why what must N.O.W. think? I'm sure the three-year olds hosting "The View" must be all up-in-arms on this one.

Imagine, attacking a public figure, a person of some legitimate station in her career, by assaulting her femininity.

I know... let's get some commentary from Sarah Palin. As a fellow woman she may feel some sympathy.

After all. if anyone knows what it feels like to be ridiculed, gender-assaulted, publicly humiliated, derided for her looks, assaulted for just about anything but the one thing that legitimately mattered, her political viewpoint, it's Sarah Palin.

You can refer to the Governor of Alaska as a pig both in Congress and on National Television, but equate one of the most infamous women in America, a woman who has lied and cheated and publicly derided the fair play her boss at least publicly expects, with a younger, much more attractive Lesbian dominatrix, and suddenly the cat claws come out.

I'm hoping this one elevates, it would be kind of fun to see this get settled in a hot oil wrestling contest, or something.

Seriously, calling for fair play mere months after the assault on Sarah Palin is completely unjustified. Especially in light of the treatment the Liberal community, for whom Nancy Pelosi is the figurative House Madam, has given Carrie Prejean, whose religion-based and moral viewpoint, which had been duly solicited in a calculated attack, was then assaulted by dredging up and posting potentially embarrassing semi-nude photos taken a few years earlier. The fact that they revealed at least as much as the Miss America swimsuit pageant did not seem to matter.

They were attacking her hypocrisy for being a Christian woman who didn't believe in Gay marriage.

The Hypocrisy!!!!!

We can not let the Left determine the ground rules by how the actions harm them... they are either harmful to everyone or they are fair game to both parties.

So for now, Nancy Galore... get out that riding crop and dominatrix the hell out of avoiding your responsibilities to the the oath of office you took. It's the least we've come to expect from a dried up old hag like you.

(Hope that came across fair enough to everyone...)

president hussein's first debate with a real Conservative...

As evidenced in this interesting article president hussein has never had a real debate with a real right-wing opponent, someone who won't be bullied or belittled.

The subject: Closing Gitmo and restoring America's stance against torture.

The opponent: Vice President Dick Cheney, who has taken flack for a little too long from the new administration.

hussein takes the stance that by using enhanced interrogation techniques which were illegal, we generated a whole host of terrorists who otherwise would have loved America. The theory being that if we treat the bad guys significantly better than they would treat our men and women under similar circumstances then the Terrorists would all have gone "Awww jeez, I feel kinda stupid, y'know... just hating America like that. I'm gonna go hug my daughter and raise a flower garden instead.".

It could happen. You never know.

Cheney takes the stance that in the same way that police hard line question criminals in order to gain information to save lives, enhanced interrogation techniques have actively saved lives. And THAT is the goal, not worrying about the rights of those who would kill us.

On the surface hussein is the winner. Afterall, who's NOT for making friends.

But that surface is molecule-thin and impressively unrealistic.

The interrogation techniques were duly vetted and approved, much more so in fact than hussein's eligibility to the office of President of the United States (but then, what hasn't been if you think about it....).

On the issue of whether or not Gitmo created terrorists, this is just sophistry designed to get us to feel guilty. The idea that one would love America and then suddenly become violently enraged over a penal system that has affected a handful of terrorists is frankly idiotic and childish. Terrorists come from a deep-seated hatred born from years of indoctrination.

Apparently, as with so many other things, president hussein was never briefed about the role of the U.S. President.

IT'S TO KEEP US FREAKIN' SAFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Not to be loved.

A Solution for poor Barack...

After reading THIS NEWS REPORT I felt really sorry for president hussein. It must be tough when you generously dole out toys to all your friends, and you go to all the houses on the block and tell the mommies that you know you shouldn't have trampled on the flowers, but you're just incorrigible, but you're really sorry and it won't happen again, and you've gone into the sandbox and took away all the other kids' toy cars so they would stop fighting, and you told the teacher how Timmy was getting too much chocolate milk in the lunchline... more than the other kids, anyhow, and you've showed all those kids on the next block how awesome your new ten-speed bicycle was, even though most of them still remember the time they were knocked to the ground by a bully on a 10-speed, and you try and you try and you try....

And still no one will do whatever you tell them to do just because.

Y'see, kids are like that. You can't buy their love. You can buy some gratitude, that's for sure, but in the end love is not something you can enforce on the world. The More you try the More it will prove to you how stupid you are for having thought you could.

And now poor hussein has a problem. He told all the kids and the teachers that he is going to take away the "naughty corner" where the bad kids are told to stand and face the wall for an unspecified amount of time. You have convinced everyone that those kids just need to be loved, and the idea of the "naughty corner" will only enrage the bad boys and make them be badder.

But without a place to send the bad boys to so that they can be punished for putting frogs in suzy's desk, the bad boys will just have to placed back into the classrooms.

Which is where they wanted to do their bad things in the first place.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and steal one of Dana Carvey's catch-phrases here.... "Well isn't that special?"

When even Congress and the Senate begin to show rational thought and tells hussein in no uncertain terms they don't want the scum of the earth brought into the very country they have vowed to destroy and given nice suburban homes, universal health care, and the right to vote... well it's pretty obvious a nerve has not only been touched, but likely tortured with pliers hooked up to a car battery.

Of course, the answer is simple. What if.... and just hear me out on this, what if we just built a prison somewhere where they can be kept safe and not be a danger to anybody, and then we can try them after their comrades have all agreed that maybe being sent to a prison somewhere where they can't harm anyone is a bad thing, and therefore not a good risk in the line of their goal to kill Americans.

I know... It's pie-in-the-sky and would never work. It's not like such a facility would have contributed to eight years of safe Americans or anything.

Yeah... you know what, I live in New York State. I'm thinking, what the hell.... give us your poor, your hungry, your religiously-motivated kill-crazy, and let 'em loose.

But before you do that, try the litmus test for such an asinine and anti-american policy and let these guys loose in the White house for a day... y'know, just to prove that they're really all reformed and everything.
