Who Won the DEMOCRATS’ New Hampshire Primary? RON PAUL Was Second!

If you answered: ‘Obama’ you’re correct but you win no prize. The fun starts when you ask who was second: Ron Paul Finshes Second in Democrat NH Primary will cover that for you. Even better, Dr. Paul’s rather bemusing appearance was entirely via write-in votes. Before you get too excited–or upset–though, know that Obie received about 82% of the total vote and our boy Ron earned his runner-up slot with a couple thousand votes. Lots of fun, though!

Who Is Rupert Murdoch & Who Controls the News?

Who Is Rupert Murdoch & Who Controls the News?.

Author Short Little Rebel has uncovered and fully documents a scandal that most Americans are completely unaware of- that a handful of powerful elite own all of America’s news outlets in what looks like a conspiracy cartel.  This cartel of news ownership has met with each & every Presidential candidate and can deny or grant news coverage as political leverage to swing events in their favor.  The most stunning revelation is how hundreds of millions of dollars of tax payer money was used to bail this cartel out and preserve it’s major ‘vehicle companies’.   Her article includes links to the stock market and charts which prove her thesis.  It is most alarming and Americans need to act now.

…”To summarize: these are the six private companies that own all the news: Fidelity Investments, The Vanguard Group, Capital Group Companies, Price (TROW) Group (though technically public, is actually private), and to a lesser extent Wellington Management Co. LLP and Dodge & Cox.”  Read More..

Will Obama Throw Biden Under the Bus?

VP MAY BE LATEST VICTIM OF ‘THE BUCK STOPS EVERYWHERE ELSE’

Let’s begin with the understanding that Joe Biden is plenty capable of throwing himself under the bus quicker than you can say Neil Kinnock. Let’s also begin with the premise that Barack Obama will do or say anything he believes will help him win in 2012.

I Created 2.1 Million Jobs and the Cow Jumped Over the Moon

OBAMA REGIME EDITS LAUGHTER OUT OF TRANSCRIPT

At a Monday evening fundraiser, Barack Obama claimed that his administration has created 2.1 million jobs under his “stimulus” plan - and DNC donors laughed out loud.

“Over the last 15 months we’ve created over 2.1 million private sector jobs.” (Laughter)  

BWAHAHA!

It’s Liberal Looney Tunes Time!

A VERITABLE CORNUCOPIA OF SILLINESS FROM THE LEFT

It’s once again time for another episode of Liberal Looney Tunes, folks. So kick back – pop a squat – and, as always, wait for your head to explode. It’s only a matter of time.

Let’s check in with our left-wing pals and see what sorts of nonsense they’ve been up to recently, shall we:

Palin Email Witch Hunt Backfires! OHH NOOO!!!

THE LEFT’S PATHETIC OBSESSION WITH SARAH PALIN IS HYSTERICAL 

Pity the poor “mainstream” media – or the Obama Media Group, as I like to call it. First it was Sarah Palin’s bus tour, and her in-your-face refusal to afford the indignant liberal press the respect they demand of her – as if they deserve it, given the way they have skewered her and her family, including her Down Syndrome son, Trig.

The Obama Media Group’s latest attempt at “gotcha” with Palin has blown up in their sniveling little faces as well. They just can’t seem to win with the imbecile from Wasilla anymore, can they? What are they to do?

This kind of treatment by Sarah Palin is more than the arrogant media can bear. What a terrible meanie she has become. Read the rest of this entry

Obama Adviser: Private Sector is Key to Economic Recovery

THEY’RE JUST MESSING WITH US, RIGHT?

Austan Goolsbee, chairman of the  president’s Council of Economic Advisers, said this morning that the Obama Administration is shifting focus from its “rescue phase” to”trying to leverage the private sector” as the key element of economic recovery. (Obama’s “rescue phase” has not been dissimilar to a baby elephant being “rescued” by a pack of hungry lions.)

What? Was he serious? Has Barack Obama secretly quit the Democratic party with plans of running for reelection as a Republican? Unless he’s just messing with us, would it have been too much to ask him to come to this conclusion – oh, say a couple of trillion dollars or so ago?

Gary Johnson tosses hat.

Former governor of New Mexico Gary Johnson has announced that he is running for president. He is a fiscal conservative and social moderate. He thinks that the money and resources spent on questionable wars would be better spentic domestically, he is for legalization of marijuana and amnesty for illegals. His fiscal responsibility seems sincere enough and that is what we really need. He ought to downplay the drug legalization and amnesty issues if he is going to be a contender. I do predict that he will do better than Ron Paul who I think will do better than he did last time around.

LUDICROUS! Rejected Tax Increases Return In Obama Budget Proposal

Sure, I just gave President Obama a “pat on the back” for his handling of the recent and ongoing events in Egypt. His back-handed budget tricks will receive no such accolades, however. Just when you think he may have actually been listening, he puts this crap in front of Congress. By “crap”, I mean the tax increases for so-called “high-wage earners” and American companies.  Does his right hand know what the left is doing?  His recent appointments of corporate executives to his advisory panel may indeed be a smoke-screen, as predicted.  How disappointing.  The actual budget has suddenly become a side issue to the budget process. Could this possibly pass after the tax increases were just shot down? This guy has some nerve!  And, Congresspersons, on both sides of the aisle, need to think twice on this one.  Oh, and by the way…  Just because you sat together at the State of the Union address doesn’t mean there is no longer an “aisle”.  Regardless, you WILL be indiscriminately fired if you vote for this “budget”.  I don’t care where you sit.

Palin is Running, and She’ll Get Creamed

It does appear that  former governor and GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah “you betcha” Palin will be throwing her beauty pageant sash into the presidential ring. She has added veteran Republican strategist Michael Glassner to serve as chief-of-staff for her political action committee, Sarah PAC, and steer her political operation. For the political insiders this is the strongest indication yet that Sarah Palin is seriously laying the groundwork for a serious bid for the white house. Unfortunately, she is probably the most disastrous of the current crop of possible GOP hopefuls and in my humble opinion would stand absolutely no chance in the general election. I will even venture to say that I don’t think she’ll make it out of the primaries. She is mistaking the general support the Right gives her as a person of character and cheerleader Tea Party as political support for a presidential bid. I submit to you the two are not the same and she will find this out the hard way. And if by some miracle she were to get the nod to lead the Republican party into the next general election we will witness the most embarrassing of electoral trouncings since Mondale got crushed by Reagan.

I defend Palin vigorously from the hatred and smears from the Left and admire her commitment to what is right and true. For the most part I share her politics, values, and ideology. And I think she makes a great fundraiser and cheerleader for the Right in general and the Tea Party in particular. But she had her chance for glory and success on the national stage and frankly blew it. Unless surrounded by friendlies she bumbles, stumbles, and freezes up (see the infamous Katie Couric interview) and even at the famous Tea Party convention where she spoke she resorted to the poor man’s teleprompter (ink notes on her hand) and was incredibly ill at ease with even the most soft-ball of questions.

In this day and age, and hostile media environment, a conservative presidential contender must be articulate and intelligent, self-assured and nearly gaffe free, professional and as equally at ease with a hostile press lying in ambush as with a friendly audience. Sarah Palin, unfortunately, doesn’t possess those gifts. Her negatives are higher than Obamas and that’s with her doing very little other than creating a reality TV show, let alone running for the highest office in the land. This all adds up to her presidential support, even among fellow Republicans, being very soft and her true popularity residing only in a small segment of the electorate. Despite what we may wish, Barack Obama is still a personally popular president and makes a more formidable candidate than he does an actual president. This spells for potential disaster for the wrong opponent on the national stage in a general election and Palin should remain in her role as fundraiser and cheerleader, occasional kingmaker and rally speaker, but avoid the temptation to join the crowded GOP field vying for the POTUS.

From Politico:

Sarah Palin hires a chief of staff

Sarah Palin has hired a veteran operative to serve as a chief of staff to her loosely organized team, one of the biggest indicators yet that the former Alaska governor is leaning toward a run for the White House.

POLITICO confirmed late Friday night that Palin has hired Michael Glassner to serve the key role.

“We are excited that Mike has agreed to come on to help the team,” SarahPAC treasurer Tim Crawford said.Glassner will be tasked with bringing greater organization to the far-flung and small staff that resides in several different states and time zones.

Glassner, whose hiring was first reported by CNN, is a former aide to ex-Sen. Bob Dole and is familiar with Palin from his service on John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign.

One of the key hurdles most Republican operatives say Palin has to clear in order to seriously run for president is hire an experienced staff. Glassner is a step in that direction.

From Mr. Glassner’s resume: 

May 2008 – November 2008 (7 months)

Managed the Vice Presidential campaign on behalf of Senator John McCain and Governor Sarah Palin, the Republican nominees for President and Vice President of the United States. Directed campaign travel and scheduling, logistical advance, personnel, budgets, fundraising, and other campaign activities for the VP nominee. Managed a team of over 100 campaign staff and volunteers and served as a member of the campaign’s senior staff. Participated in strategy and planning for the McCain-Palin general election campaign

As a Republican and a conservative my goal is to select the most electable conservative to be the banner carrier for the Republican party and the conservative movement in the next presidential election. And in my humble opinion neither Mr. Glasser or anyone else can make Sarah Palin that person.

Egypt & Mubarak Coming To An End Tonight

I cannot wait to hear the news tonight. The suspense is killing me… And, I sure hope it lasts!  It seems the Vice-President will take control.  But, let’s not hold our breath…

The Reality of Congress

Let’s put the spending issue into perspective.  Say I am a conservative, thinking good fiscal sense is the right path.  My congressman (woman) may well be of like mind. Let’s say I support a high-speed rail system running through my city. Sure, data shows it would improve the economy and, perhaps environmental concerns, in my area. Yet, my congressperson says to me, “hey, it’s a great idea, but we simply cannot afford it at this time; let’s leave it on the table for another time”…

In the meantime, other, Democrat-controlled regions put forth similar plans, regardless of finances…

At the end of the day, the fiscally-irresponsible areas HAVE the expensive programs, at the increased expense of neighboring taxpayers, and the responsible parties (those who chose to wait) suffer because their time may never come, simply because they must now pay for the “greed” of neighboring districts and their default…

So, with this in mind… let me ask you this… Why should anyone ever wait? Republicans and Democrats are simply in a race to get whatever they can WHEN they can!

As long as ANY party chooses to spend more than they have, NO party can possibly act responsibly and hope to serve its constituents honorably, can it?

Yep, he’s running for president

Watch Governor Tim Pawlenty’s message to the American people, to never give up faith in the power of the American spirit. You barely get one election behind you and another has begun. Personally I think the Confederacy got one thing right. The presidency should be limited to one, six-year term. I do not yet have a favorite among the potential GOP presidential candidates but it is going to be fun to watch the initial jockeying among what is sure to be a crowded initial field.

F*CKIN’ A!!!!

House Approves Repeal of Obama’s Health-Care Reform Law

Voting for all?

First, I would just like to say how excited I am-this being my first post-and how much  I can’t wait to see other people’s opinions.

When democracy first came about, presumably everyone was excited to get to vote for who was going to represent them. The citizens did their research-most anyway-and made informed decisions about who would be their next leader. Elections today, especially Presidential elections which the most amount of voters turn up for, turn out to be a Mr./Ms. Personality contest instead of who is best for the job. Granted, this is pretty obvious, but the most charismatic candidate almost always ends up getting chosen (it’s like high school Prom King/Queen all over again. wonderful…)

Rep.-Elect Lt. Col. Allen West– a True American Patriot

It’s no secret. I’d vote for Col. West for POTUS in a heartbeat. I’ve been keeping an eye on him as an up-and-comer ever since his CPAC speech.

THIS is the definition of a leader, and one we’ve sorely needed since Reagan. No politically correct B.S. here.

Plus, notice how well-spoken he is. West doesn’t need a teleprompter. He speaks confidently, and from the heart.

Vote Republican for the Very First Time

Hey liberals, do you really care about minorities? If so, then why not support those who have recently won (and now more importantly are seeking) leadership positions?

And to minorities (Blacks, Asians, Hispanics, etc), do you honestly think the Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton types truly care whether you succeed or not?

Get real. Dependency is their game, largely because they make money off of it. Money from those they dupe.

And now back to the video. Wow. Star Parker? I didn’t know she was running for office! I’d vote for her in a nanosecond.
(Only criticism I have of the vid. is that Allen West’s name was misspelled. I’ll allow that small mistake.)

So, how about that election in Alaska?

I have been laying low, so to speak.  Watching the election and mainly busy with life.  But no one can tell me that the Senate Race here in Alaska has not been interesting.  I have seen on blogs all over the internet, watching people talk about how people hate Alaska now just for this one election, but always praise Sarah Palin when it comes to anything.  Umm…. where is Sarah from again?

Five Best Moments from MSNBC’s Apocalyptic Night

5 Best Moments from MSNBC’s Apocalyptic Night

It’s kind of nice to see those who have run roughshod over the American people and have shown themselves to be nothing more than smug, arrogant elitists to finally, finally, be brought down to earth. Those who openly bribed others with funds from the public treasury to pass legislation have finally been held accountable for their actions. Obama was almost kind of contrite today and his arrogant “we won, you lost” style of governance isn’t quite as effective or applicable today. Let there be rejoicing in the land that I will not have to look at Pelosi’s face staring back at me at another State of the Union address ever again. 

Oh, and MSNBC last night completely abandoned even the semblance of being an actual news outlet. Amazing. I went back and forth between CNN and Fox. Both did a decent job of covering the election.

Name recognition taken to a whole new level..

Actual name from the ballot in my area.  And yes, I voted.

 

 

 

 

I love election day.

Republicans Kind of Suck … Which Is Why They Will Win Huge in November

Republicans Kind of Suck … Which Is Why They Will Win Huge in November

Priceless, and now you know why. A great find on instapundit today that was well worth sharing. The style kind of reminds me of our own THB.

So the Democrats sucked. But not just plain old, usual politician sucked, but epic levels of suck where it’s hard to find an analogue in human history that conveys the same level of suckitude. It was sheer incompetence plus arrogance — and those things do not complement each other well. We’re talking sucking that distorts time and space like a black hole.

It’s Godzilla-smashing-through-a-city level of suck — but a really patronizing Godzilla who says you’re just too stupid and hateful to see all the buildings he’s saved or created as he smashes everything apart. Or, to use Obama’s favorite analogy, you have a car stuck in ditch, so you call the mechanic, but the only tool he brings with him is a sledgehammer. And then he smashes your car to pieces and charges you $100,000 for his service. Finally, he calls you racist for complaining. Obama and the Democrats have been so awful, it’s hard for the human brain to even comprehend.

But the Democrats will counter that the Republicans also suck. And while this is true, it’s not really going to help them. As I pointed out before, both a dog incessantly barking and a zombie apocalypse are things that everyone would agree suck. Yet no one during a zombie apocalypse, while hiding out in a boarded up mall, would turn to the other survivors and say, “We don’t want to kill all the zombies; then we’d have to go back to being woken up at night by that annoying dog next door.” But this is the best argument the Democrats can come up with. “Remember how awful the Republicans and Bush were? You hated them. You don’t want to go back to that.” Yes, why would people want to go back to when 6% unemployment was considered high?

Was it something he said, or something he did?

“The organizations paying for these attacks hope to motivate their own passionate followers while discouraging others from voting because of their dismay at the level of discourse. While I am confident …., I will be urging all voters to go to the polls despite this climate in order to help prevent this flood of money from submerging our democracy.”

Andrew Breitbart?  No.

Sarah Palin? No.

Glenn Beck? No.

A clear winner, er favorite, er candidate has emerged…

After a long time away, I too am beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel – the difference this time is that I have hope that it is not the train.

Reading up on the latest events I came across this incredibly fair and balanced approach to the recent debate between Christine O’Donnell and the other guy.  Is it just me, or does Christine O’Donnell sound like she’s about to cry every time she says something… Is there anything better than stating facts and slamming an opponent all while sounding like you are about to break down?

Breitbart Forces Obama’s Protesters To Fold Up Shop

Andrew Breitbart has brass ones to go out and confront that crowd alone. He’s a godsend and a true patriot.

On Saturday, September 18th, Glenn Beck and Andrew Breitbart headlined an event entitled “Right Nation 2010,” held just outside of Chicago, Illinois.

As you will see in our video report from the scene, when Andrew Breitbart arrived at the Sears Centre, he was met with an angry mob of protesters who were calling for an ‘end to hate’ while also hurling expletives and homophobic slurs toward the targets of their enmity.

In the following dramatic video, Breitbart brings the protest to a complete halt by cleverly asking sign holders to do the impossible: explain the placards they were carrying. In the end, the frustrated organizers abruptly end their protest and leave.

Read the whole thing, and watch all the videos.

…Is anyone else beginning to see a pattern developing here?

It’s getting more and more obvious every single day.

Mo’s Quote of the Day

Well, here’s a quote I read just last night, and it perfectly states why a patriot like me who loves his country and wants to do good cannot run for office and win in modern America:

The media’s interest on candidate’s private lives has already had at least one bad effect on society. A powerful alliance of the media and left-wing feminists and the religious right has ensured that fewer quality people will run for political office. Few great individuals are willing to have their lives dissected in ways that virtually guarantee undeserved personal and family suffering. A person’s desire for political office has to overwhelm a desire to protect one’s own and one’s family’s privacy, and such an individual is precisely not the type of person we want most to lead us.

~Dennis Prager, “Think A Second Time” p.1995

We’ve evolved a system that ensures the worst possible people–those who are smart, clever, devious, dishonest, and hungry for power will always rise to the top levels of government. That’s what’s got to change, or we’ve got to get used to being their slaves. Or at least their ATMs.

Obama supports the 911 Mosque

“As a citizen, and as president, I believe that Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as anyone else in this country,”

“That includes the right to build a place of worship and a community center on private property in lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances,” he said. “This is America, and our commitment to religious freedom must be unshakable.”

There has to be someone out there who is surprised by this.  2 in 10 New Yorkers polled supported the idea of the Cordoba House.  73% of all polled opposed it.  Blacks, whites, males, females, latinos, you name it, they opposed it.  So, as usual, Obama disregards the will of the majority to assert a moral opinion that he has some special insight that 73% of the people don’t.  That the same funding mechanism and values that supported killing 3,000 innocent New Yorkers should be accepted by those victims simply because it was done in the name of religion.

Clue here Obama, there’s a bunch of New Yorkers who I don’t think are going to be very tolerant.  I don’t expect them to be.  A good portion of that religion has declared holy wars on the citizens of the United States.  Some people take that seriously. 

Others think they can talk their way out of it.

Side note, I’m going to bet this headline alone costs the Democrats 10 more elections.  The rap on Obama was he would be weak on defense.  The very day an aggressive Islamic nation announces they are going nuclear, Obama sells out New York City to Bin Laden.  We are pulling out of Iraq and Afghanistan and tossing in Manhatten to boot.  I would hope it would be a lot bigger number than 10, but some people just can’t vote anything but Democrat.

What Failure Looks Like

Newt Gingrich’s letter in Human Events yesterday gives a snapshot of just how badly Obama is doing. In brief:

As bad as the 9.5% unemployment rate is, it’s artificially low and may be as high as 22%.

Obama promised to create 3.5 million jobs, instead we’ve lost 4.1 million during his administration, a deficit of 7.6 million jobs.

Despite high unemployment, firms are having trouble filling job openings because the extension of unemployment benefits gives people an incentive to stay on unemployment, and business owners paralyzed by the Democrats’ agenda are afraid to hire new workers (or otherwise invest in their businesses) unable to predict how much they will owe in taxes and the future to the price of energy should an energy tax get passed.

A majority of Americans favor repealing the health care bill including 71% of Missouri voters who repudiated it at the polls.

Every vote counts!

Think your vote doesn’t count? Look at this:
