I can't remember the last time I was more impressed with a political speech. This speech IMPRESSED me. Before it was over, I was finding myself wishing Sarah Palin was at the top of the Republican ticket. I see qualities in her that are rare and sorely needed in our party, and in national politics in general. In case you missed this speech, here is your chance to rectify the situation. You don't want to miss this one,,,,< Date: Sep 4, 2008 2:36 AM
In a nutshell, this article by Burt Prelutsky, reflects my feelings about Obama, and the Democrat party.
" I must confess that I am spending an awful lot of time thinking about Barack Obama. I hasten to add that it's not, as is the case with Chris Matthews, because the senator sends shivers up my leg. Rather, it's because I simply can't figure out how he's managed to convince so many people that he should be the president of the United States. It's a lot like trying to figure out how Las Vegas magicians make lions and tigers disappear.
To be perfectly honest, I invariably feel that way about the candidates the Democrats try to foist off on us. But, as a rule, guys like Dukakis, Gore and Kerry, are just typical party hacks. But at least none of them attended a racist church, they didn't associate with known terrorists and they usually didn't display their contempt for national symbols and the U.S. military quite so blatantly.
Liberals have tried to convince me that Obama is brilliant. I find that odd because he has said that there are 57 states, that JFK got the Russians to remove their missiles from Cuba by sitting down and chatting with Khrushchev, and that Iran doesn't really constitute an actual threat because they don't spend as much money on weaponry as we do. Funny, but "brilliant" isn't the first word that comes to mind. But what do liberals know? They were also convinced that Jimmy Carter was intelligent.
As if Obama's lack of smarts weren't bad enough, he compounds the problem with his arrogance. The way he's forever tilting his head as if he were posing for a statue and employing the royal "we," I'm never sure if he thinks he's campaigning to be president of the United States or the queen of England.
Frankly, I'm always surprised when, every four years, the candidate with the (D) after his name is able to muster tens of millions of votes. When you realize that the party has become increasingly Marxist, I find it mind-boggling that the Democrats can consistently fare better than the Greens or the Libertarians in a national election.
If you listen to Obama, you'd get the idea that we're a third world nation, tottering on the edge of poverty. Every word out of his mouth suggests that America is being ground down by corporations when every sane member of the middle class is well aware that the Democrats, who have never met a tax increase they didn't love or an illegal alien they didn't see as a potential vote, and who promote class and race warfare as party policy, pose more of a threat to this country than the Soviet Union ever did.
Obama and his fellow left-wingers keep parroting the line that all the other nations of the world hate us, but I've noticed that they never name names. And who can blame them? They're not likely to mention that they're referring to the likes of Iran, China, Yemen, Venezuela, Russia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and North Korea, just as they're not likely to mention that England, France, Germany and Italy, have all elected conservative leaders in the past few years, while dumping the leftist likes of Chirac and Schroder along the way.
Because the MSM adores Obama, they continue to promote the notion of Obama as a great orator, but he is actually no more silver-tongued than your average radio announcer reading ad copy for baby wipes. The fact is that when asked a direct question, the man turns into a blithering idiot, even though you would imagine that by this late date he would have memorized the appropriate lines. Perhaps the problem is that this new style politician is so driven by polls that from moment to moment he's not sure exactly how he feels about the 16-month deadline in Iraq, the surge, offshore drilling for oil, election financing or dividing the city of Jerusalem. Heck, he even changed his opinion about Reverend Wright overnight. On one notable occasion, during the primaries, he was heard to ask if he could just have a moment to finish his waffle. We all thought he was referring to his breakfast. But apparently that wasn't the case because the man hasn't stopped waffling yet.
Even after all this time on the stump, I have yet to hear what he would have done about Saddam Hussein if he'd been president. After all, his liberal colleagues had spent much of the 1990s insisting that there had to be a regime change in Iraq. And as Georges Sada, Hussein's air vice-marshal, has stated in his 2006 book, "Saddam's Secrets," Hussein had all the WMD that Kerry, Kennedy and the Clintons thought he had, but had his chemical arsenal airlifted to Syria after the allied invasion began, in the hope of convincing the world that he was the innocent victim of American aggression.
Knowing Obama as we do, we can only assume that if he'd been occupying the Oval Office he would have sat down with Hussein, and through the sheer power of his personality and his white teeth -- or do I repeat myself? -- would have convinced the Butcher of Baghdad that while it's nice to be important, it's more important to be nice."
I apologize for not writing longer blogs lately, but time hasn't allowed. I do, however want to keep the pressure on the Obama campaign. So instead of not posting at all,, I will bring what I can to the table, and let my readers battle it out if necessary, until EVERYONE at least gets to hear the truth. After that, it is up to them to decide what to do with it. Ignore it, and elect a socialist moron to the highest office of the land, or a patriot who loves, and has already served her for decades.
Here is a short video of an example of Obama's ignorance, AND arrogance,, I don't know which is more pronounced,, you decide.
Oboma Promises War On American Business To Institute Socialism
Category: News and Politics
I am beginning to see desperation in the Obama campaign. His flip flops are becoming more blatant and frequent with each passing day. The one thing that he IS being consistent on is his dedication to radical socialism. As we are seeing the market begin to correct itself, WITH OUT government interference, and gas prices begin to fall, Obama continues to promise to take profits AWAY from oil companies which translates into to another healthy dose of once again, higher prices, which will deal a death blow to any economic recovery that has taken place as a result.
When will we learn, once and for all, that the policies of the left NEVER WORK? The very idea that the government knows better than the American people, and American business, how to handle and spend THEIR OWN money, is the very definition of insanity. And yet, we keep electing them, and letting this insanity go on.
Obama's "vast experience" ( his only experience outside of school, a short stint as a state senator, and 143 days as a US. senator ) as a "community organizer" will guide him right into the presidency, and we will get to see first hand, what it will be like to have a communist in charge. Obama stated himself, just a couple or so years ago, that he didn't have the experience to run for president, but he has chosen to ignore his own advice, one of the few times he was right.
Here is a column I read this morning, that hits on some important points, that I would like to share. It's by Austin Hill, and I think if you haven't already read it, you should give it a look. I hope you all enjoy your Sunday.
What an interesting week…
While traveling in Asia, President Bush criticized China over its abysmal record on human rights. While traveling across the United States, would-be President John McCain criticized the Bush Administration over its abysmal record on fiscal policy, and his political opponent, for being a pop culture icon. And while traveling on his own campaign trail, Barack Obama criticized his own public enemy of choice: American oil corporations.
Admittedly, the week was a rough one for Obama. It began with the McCain campaign having released a video commercial that portrayed Obama as a pop culture icon, and likened him to such notable celebrities as Britney Spears and Paris Hilton.
Obama reacted to this advertisement by insisting that he and McCain should both be talking about "the substantive issues," and not about Britney Spears (this from the same Barack Obama who has ignored McCain's invitations for a joint town hall meeting for nearly three months). Shortly thereafter, the Obama campaign released its own video commercial, claiming that McCain is "just like" President Bush and Vice President Cheney on energy policy, and that McCain is "in the pockets" of "big oil."
Now think about this for a moment. Senator McCain compared Senator Obama to Britney Spears and Paris Hilton. An insult? You bet it was, and an intentional one at that.
Yet, Obama's response was to compare Senator McCain to an actual President, and to an actual Vice President, and to claim that McCain is - - what? - - too supportive of American business?
If Obama was intending to equalize the presidential campaign terrain this week, it's difficult to imagine that being called a "friend to the oil companies" compares at all with being called a "pop star." Similarly, its tough to fathom that for a man to be compared to the President of the United States is somehow worse than being compared to Spears or Hilton.
But this attempt to malign McCain by pointing out his alleged association with "big oil" is consistent with Obama's entire campaign. Indeed, throughout his nineteen month pursuit of the presidency, Obama has seemingly taken every opportunity to malign American free enterprise - - be it the oil industry, the insurance industry, the banking industry, or the medical profession - - as though it were the source of all the world's evils. Obama's radical, anti-business streak showed itself again this week, in an outburst aimed specifically at the Exxon-Mobil corporation.
After reporting a nearly $12 billion quarterly profit, Obama lamented that "no U.S. corporation ever made that much in a quarter" - - as though setting new records for financial success were a bad thing.
He then used the occasion to reiterate his plan for taxing the excessive, or "windfall" profits of oil companies, and to redistribute that revenue to "deserving families" in the form of "rebate checks."
But since when is it presidential to single-out an American company by name, and to publicly trash it? And what exactly is Obama (or anybody else) talking about, when he says the name "Exxon Mobil?"
Well, the Exxon-Mobil corporation is a privately held, publicly traded, legal corporation, governed by a board of directors, and headquartered in suburban Dallas. According to market analysis from the Wall Street Journal, the corporation employees over 80,000 people, and is the world's largest publicly traded (not government owned) oil and gas company. It markets products in nearly every country on the planet, and provides energy that is the underpinning of both developed and emerging economies around the world (including our own).
This is what is so conveniently dismissed as "big oil" by candidate Obama. Forget the fact that the company employs more than the population of a small town. Never mind that those "windfall profits" that Obama gripes about pay dividends to stockholders - - stockholders who are "working Americans," and retirees, and people of all ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds. And ignore the fact that "big oil's" profits are helping to produce the future funding for union member's retirement plans and pension funds. No, no, forget all that. Senator and almost-President Barack Obama is outraged because the Exxon-Mobil corporation set a new record for quarterly profits, he knows he can manage that money better than anyone else, and he's determined that these dastardly corporate profits are, indeed, the greatest threat to the United States.
So while President Bush speaks out against the tyrrany of communism, and Senator McCain speaks out against the stranglehold of government that prevents Americans from using American energy resources, Senator Obama wages his own war on corporate profits. And herein lies the greatest insult of campaign 2008 - - Mr. Obama assumes that Americans don't know any better.
Job Offering: President of the United States, NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY
Current mood: pissed off
Category: News and Politics
It is late, and I am dog tired,, but my blood is boiling right now, and I just had to rant a bit to get it all off my chest. I have been hearing Obama's speech in Germany all over the news, and in many of my friends blogs. I heard bits and pieces of it, and read the whole thing on Nuke's blog.
It is utterly amazing to me that Obama with all of his 143 days of experience in national politics is even CLOSE to a serious candidate for the leader of the free world!! Just fucking amazing!! What the fuck is wrong with people? Is everyone just suffering from brain damage, as a residual from the Bush hatred syndrome?
The American people, in part, just seem to ignore what this moron has told us over and over again, in words and deeds what he is all about. He is an America hating, socialist, terrorist appeasing, idiot, with NO FUCKING CLUE what he is doing!!! Is being able to read from a teleprompter and looking good in a suit now ALL THAT IS REQUIRED to be president of the United States?? Many people don't even hear the words Obama says,, or don't really think the details are important. All they know is that he is not a Bush,, and NOT a Clinton,, and that is good enough. Never mind he intends to surrender to the terrorists,,and kill our already faltering economy with a shit load of new taxes!! The list goes on and on. He could be speaking complete gibberish and those morons would cheer!
Now it appears Obama is running for the president of the world, with out actually being any more than a candidate. He hasn't even officially been nominated for fuck's sake!! Obama's arrogance is only exceeded by his ignorance!! But as pathetic as Obama is as a candidate,, his supporters are even MORE FUCKING PATHETIC!!
An Obama presidency will bring us a trashed military, a trashed economy, inevitable terrorist attacks on American soil, open boarders with millions more illegals for us to support who will undoubtedly get to vote ( Obama's involvement with ACORN ),, more UN influence on our sovereignty,, a bloated government that will make what we have now look like nothing, along with huge crushing national debt, and crushing new taxes to support all of the new socialist programs he will install. OH, and the icing on the cake is the supreme court judges he will nominate, which will undoubtedly get through because of a socialist controlled congress ( thanks to all those who stayed home from the last election having a tantrum ).
America as we have known her will cease to exist if this radical is elected, and it looks like it's a real possibility. McCain is an honorable man, but he acts to me like he doesn't want it bad enough. ( that's what people said about Fred Thompson ). McCain isn't used to going after Democrats,, his strong suit has always been going after, and back stabbing conservatives. So his heart isn't in this fight. That is not to say he should play dirty politics,, but if he can't beat Obama just by going after his astronomical number of weaknesses, then he doesn't deserve to win. I don't look for this to happen. McCain tries so hard to appear reasonable, and above taking his opponent to task, he isn't even in the fight.
I think most of you know that I am far from a John McCain fan,, but on his worst day,, he would be a thousand times better than Obama, Osama, Hussein, or what ever the fuck we are supposed to call him these days. On judge appointments alone, it would be voting against Obama, and for McCain.
This election is for ALL the marbles, ladies and gentlemen. We had better give it all we have to defeat this moron Obama, or we will be introducing our children to a third world America, if she exists by then at all.
As promised, here is another installment of videos exposing Islam, the "religion of peace" for what it is. We are at war folks, and just not the shooting war we all are painfully aware of. This war is also being waged on the internet. The last blog I posted seem to have brought the enemy out of the wood work, in an attempt to silence the truth. I have had several friends be hacked, and it all seemed to stem from that blog. If you post here,, be careful. Make sure your computer protection is on, and up to date, and change your password frequently.
I am putting the enemies of freedom on notice! I will NOT be silenced! I will NEVER stop! I will NEVER back down. I WILL FIGHT YOU WITH MY LAST BREATH!
If the scum in this first video don't make your blood boil, you have no right to call yourself an American. I'm all for the first amendment, but that wouldn't stop me from personally stomping their jihad asses for them, and take what is left to the nearest ocean, and inviting them to swim for it, before I changed my mind.
I want to hear from some of our so called liberal friends on how we should only try to be nicer to these folks to make them love us. If you truly believe that we are to blame for this attitude the Muslims have toward us, and their plan for world domination,, I would hate to think what the rest of your life must be like.
ISLAM RELIGION OF PEACE? KNOW YOUR ENEMY!
Category: News and Politics
I will be posting a series of videos to educate my readers about the true nature of Islam. Do your own research and ask questions. Islam will conquer the world if we continue to ignore the facts, and bury our heads in the sand, and they can do it without firing a shot. After all, we are considering electing a Muslim to the highest office of our land while at war with the so called radical elements of that religion.
Is this the beginning of the end of America as we know it? You be the judge.
I will be posting this series of videos several times a week. If you would like to jump ahead here is the link to the site of the author.
A new video on YouTube is taking the Internet by storm. Entitled "I'm Voting Republican," the satirical clip depicts actors playing conservative Americans of all shapes and sizes explaining why they would vote for the GOP.
"Arnold Jones" says he's voting Republican because "all other countries are inferior to us" -- and his wife, "Trudy Jones," adds, "and we should start as many wars as we need to keep it that way." A soldier in Iraq states that he's voting Republican "so I can stay in Iraq" -- and a young boy, labeled "future draftee," points a fake gun at the camera and smiles while saying "so I can go to Iran!"
A black couple says they're voting Republican because they "like a conservative majority on the Supreme Court," with the wife noting, "we really like knowing that even if we're separate, we'll still be called equal."
This insulting nonsense is precisely what liberals think of conservatives: We're all warmongers, racists, environmental rapists and secret emissaries of big corporations. We're going to reinstitute the draft, start a war with Canada and then relocate African-Americans to Quebec.
This sort of tripe should be dismissed out of hand. In the spirit of evenhandedness and fair play, however, I feel it my duty to explain why I'm going to vote Democrat.
I'm voting Democrat because I believe that the best strategy in war is defeat. It broadens the mind to learn Japanese, German and Arabic. Talk about multiculturalism!
I'm voting Democrat because I'm mad that George W. Bush hasn't caught Bin Laden. That's because Bin Laden is the only Islamic terrorist in the world.
I'm voting Democrat because I believe that if I don't have enough money, the solution is for the government to take more of my money. Who needs money when gas is $5 per gallon?
I'm voting Democrat because I believe that the ideal family is two homosexual bonobos, a goat and a parrot raising a human baby. Love and compassion is all it takes to make a successful family!
I'm voting Democrat because it's my body, and if I want to kill my baby, I'll do it, even if its head is in the birth canal. If I want to cut out my intestines and feed them to the crocodiles, I'll do that too. That's the freedom our forefathers enshrined in the Constitution.
I'm voting Democrat because our enemies on the battlefield deserve comfy hotel rooms, Pay-Per-View, prostitutes and all the benefits of American citizenship.
I'm voting Democrat because I believe we need other countries' permission for me to turn down my thermostat.
I'm voting Democrat because I care about the real victims of crime -- criminals.
I'm voting Democrat because the real cure for racism includes preferential policies based on race -- particularly in presidential voting. If you believe that a black candidate ought to be qualified, as well as black, you're worse than Bull Conner.
I'm voting Democrat because everyone deserves crappy healthcare. Sure, you'll have to wait years for that life-saving cancer surgery. But it's first come, first served at the cemetery!
I'm voting Democrat because I believe in minority rights (except in Muslim countries), free speech (with regard to pornography but not conservative talk radio), environmentalism (unless we're talking about Al Gore's house) and diplomacy (but never backed by the threat of military force).
I'm voting Democrat because I like the words "hope" and "change." Also "kazoo." That's a funny word.
I'm voting Democrat because I believe that America's founders were rich, white, greedy xenophobes, and that America's founding principles are hogwash requiring periodic editing from an unelected group of liberal judges.
Most of all, I'm voting Democrat because I like the ideas they have over in France, but I don't feel like moving there. I'll threaten to move, but I really won't. After all, I have a good job, healthcare, lower taxes, free speech and a social framework that promotes family structure. And all of it is defended by the most effective fighting force on the planet.
If only the institution of far-left values resulted in a great country. Oh, well. That won't stop me from voting Democrat, though. After all, I'm voting Democrat because thought isn't one of my strong suits.
pissed off
