Meet P-BO’s CZARs

Posted by: The BoBo  //  Category: A Nation at Risk, America, Freedom, Liberals, P-BO, Politics, President, Socialism, government, marxism

Hey all – so sorry for the long delay.  There has been a lot of shit going on in and around The BoBo household – real world work got real busy, got busy with duties as the state chair of the platform committee for The American Conservative Party, step-daughter has been in the hospital since this past Saturday, my oldest is in jail (I won’t even go there – freakin’ idiot!) and we took the little one’s to Mickey’s Not So Scary Halloween at Disney on Sunday – so – with everything going on – I just couldn’t get myself to blog or respond.  But – here I am – I’m back.

This is some really scary shit people. Joe McCarthy is probably rolling in his grave. While he abused his power – at least he was trying to protect this country from Communists in the administration. Now – there are there right out in the open.

I know I have some reasonable liberal readers out there – is this reasonable to you guys?  Do you really believe these people believe in high level executive positions in our government?  Do you really believe that P-BO is not out to tear down this country brick-by-brick only to remake it in the socialist and marxist image of Europe and old Russia?  It’s here now and we only have a short period of time to stop this march.

Come 2010 and 2012 – we need to renounce P-BO and this administration.  It’s time to put real Americans in there, whether they are Democrat, Republicans or Independents – we need to get rid of these radical leftists.

I Pledge to be of service to Barack Obama!

Posted by: The BoBo  //  Category: A Nation at Risk, America, Children, Freedom, Liberals, Obama, Politics, communism, marxism

How would you all like to have your children say this pledge in school?  How about this pledge:

I pledge allegiance to the funk, to the united funk of funkadelica

(okay – on a side note, when I was in high school I did have the Funkadelic album and one single off that album was “One Nation Under A Groove” that had those lyrics in it.  However, I was in high school and was old enough to make my own choice of music.  Taken out of context by elementary school kids, they don’t have a clue.  There is no need for that.  Also – one of the other songs on that album – Promentalshitbackwashpsychosis – don’t ask me what the hell that means..but..at 17 – it was pretty cool to sing – and to play really loud to drive the parents nuts)

But, back to the main point – guess what – these and other leftist and inappropriate type pledges were shown to school chldren – here’s the video:

and here’s the story.


Parents upset over ‘leftist propaganda’ video

Education » Principal apologizes for showing ‘I Pledge’ to students.

This video was shown at an assembly of elementary school kids. Taken this video, along with the indoctrination attempt this coming September 8, 2009 where P-BO will address the entire public school system K-6 in the entire nation (which no President in American history has ever done) and the fact they are now recruiting kids to help with the 2010 census – how can anybody not say this is being taken straight out of the Marxist playbook?

Here is Marx’s take on education and family – straight from The Communist Manifesto

Abolition of the family! Even the most radical flare up at this infamous proposal of the Communists.

On what foundation is the present family, the bourgeois family, based? On capital, on private gain. In its completely developed form, this family exists only among the bourgeoisie. But this state of things finds its complement in the practical absence of the family among proletarians, and in public prostitution.

The bourgeois family will vanish as a matter of course when its complement vanishes, and both will vanish with the vanishing of capital.

Do you charge us with wanting to stop the exploitation of children by their parents? To this crime we plead guilty.

But, you say, we destroy the most hallowed of relations, when we replace home education by social.

And your education! Is not that also social, and determined by the social conditions under which you educate, by the intervention direct or indirect, of society, by means of schools, etc.? The Communists have not intended the intervention of society in education; they do but seek to alter the character of that intervention, and to rescue education from the influence of the ruling class.

The bourgeois claptrap about the family and education, about the hallowed correlation of parents and child, becomes all the more disgusting, the more, by the action of Modern Industry, all the family ties among the proletarians are torn asunder, and their children transformed into simple articles of commerce and instruments of labor.

Is this sounding a bit too familiar and scary?  If any of you parents have your children in public schools, now is the time to be ever vigilant.  The leftist extremists are following Marx and are trying to abolish the relationship you have with them in favor of their pledge to P-BO and the state.

And..on a lighter note..this is some really funny shit..but..you gotta watch the video first to understand it.  h/t to Dave from Increasingly uncommon common sense for alerting me to this: I Pledge over at Iowahawk.  You gotta see this.

UPDATE! h/t to TexasFred – If you want to let P-BO know that you don’t want his liberal agenda in your kids’ schools and oppose him preaching to them on September 8 – sign the petition here

The BoBo Carnival of Politics – August 2, 2009 Edition

Posted by: The BoBo  //  Category: America, BoBo, Carnival, Congress, Conservative, Fascism, Iran, Liberals, Obama, Politics, RINO, Socialism, government, health care, marxism

Wow! It’s August already. This year is just flying by. I’m fully expecting to see some Halloween and Thanksgiving holiday stuff out at the stores hitting the shelves real soon. With that being said, welcome to another fine installment of The BoBo Carnival of Politics. We have some great submissions yet again – very timely – and great topics.

Before we get started – I want to bring something to everyone’s attention – Bill Campbell of The Tome of The Unknown Writer has a little project going on regarding the health care debate. Go check it out. He’s asking for stories – good, or bad – regarding your health care experiences. It is a totally non-partisan project. If you’re inclined, check it out, get the details, and give him your stories.

So – let’s get started:


Welcome to the August 2, 2009 edition of the bobo carnival of politics.

Conservative

Norbert Sluzewski presents Is Meritocracy Dead in America? posted at Naked Liberty.

Well – given the fact that the current SCOTUS nominee has been touted as a great example of affirmative action at work – and that both Barack and Michelle have stated they benefited from affirmative action – I believe that meriticracy in this country is indeed dead.  Not only that, but with one provision of that healthcare bill being that medical schools will obtain funding if they reach increased quotas of minorities enrolled versus enrolling those on merit who actually deserve to be in med school, its just further proof that socialism is being sown in this country.  When social constructs take precedence over merit – society loses.

Scott Spiegel presents Just Make Sure It’s Not a Blue Moon Belgian White posted at Scott Spiegel.

Yeah – and if this summit was all about making nicey nice – then why were there no apologies from Barack or Gates?  Nothing more than a photo op if you ask me.  Absolutely nothing got accomplished as far as race relations go in this country.  It just showed this country that two racist black men can get away with using the race card – if they just give the white man a beer.

Scott Spiegel presents Can We Decommission the Health Care Bill with Sodium Silicate? posted at Scott Spiegel.

This fits in nicely with Selkirk’s and Wenchypoo’s pieces below. Personally, I think we need to decommission our entire government at this point.  One bad idea after another – and we’re the one’s paying for it.

Paul presents Fix Entitlement Programs, Then Fix Health Care posted at Paul’s Political Punditcy.

Couldn’t agree with you more on this one, Paul.  The figures you site are frightening.  If those “Big 3″ (as you put it) aren’t fixed – that will be the only thing we’re all working towards funding.  That’s sheer lunacy.

Anthony Delgado presents Reproductive Technology: Surrogate Motherhood posted at eInquisitive | Giving you something productive to think about!.

Well, Anthony – not entirely related to politics – but – I’ll let this one in this week – it’s a good topic and some of my readers might be interested in it.

Selkirk presents Top 6 Unintended Consequences of ObamaCare posted at Political Castaway Blog: Broadcasting Conservatism to Rescue America.

Selkirk – this ties in nicely with the piece that I did last week regarding my position that health insurance is not a right.  Some of what you have indicated as the unintended consequences fit in with my solutions.  Great post – and – right on target.

Steve Parry presents Sotomayor And Racial Profiling posted at The Axis of Stevil, saying, “In my humble typical white opinion.”

I already added my say on this in your comment section.  Now we have the NRA out there as well telling the Senators that if they support her they will actively campaign against them.  This is a bad pick for SCOTUS and the United States.

Silicon Valley Blogger presents Is The Economic Downturn Over? posted at The Digerati Life, saying, “Is this economic recession over? Some thoughts!”

Well – that would be nice.  However, I look at the other indicators as well – the GDP, GNP, Productivity, and the housing market – in addition to the ones in your post.  These other indicators are all still down – and – other economists, in addition to the Association of Realtors, is stating there is another wave of foreclosures coming – not only in the consumer market – but as well as in the commercial market.  There has been an increase in delinquent payments from the A-rated borrowers.  Personally, I think this latest volley from the administration trying to say the recession is over is just a propoganda push.  If you say it enough – people will start believing it.  The four indicators I mentioned are still in decline.

The Smarter Wallet presents Euro vs Dollar (USD): Weak US Dollar Ahead? posted at The Smarter Wallet, saying, “Do we have inflation ahead? Forecasting inflation by checking how the US dollar is behaving.”

Another good analysis on your part.  All the indicators would suggest inflation, actually I would say, hyperinflation is just ahead.  With oil being pegged to the dollar, and the dollar still in decline, all other currencies are up on the dollar – I would say you can bet on it.  As for trading for Euro’s – interesting.  I’ve been investing in gold, personally.

NotYourDaddy presents How to Undermine the Economy posted at Government is not your Daddy., saying, “If you wanted to come up with a plan to undermine the economy of the most prosperous and successful nation on earth, how would you go about it? The first thing you’d have to do would be to debase the underlying value system that provides the foundation for prosperity.”

Surely, you wouldn’t be suggesting that our socialist President is putting all this in to place? If you haven’t seen this video already – wow – nevermind – I had a video from youtube bookmarked – it was titled 45 goals for U.S. Marxism – taken from the 1963 congressional record – seems to have been pulled because of a “terms of use violation.”  We already know that google and youtube are in the tank for this administration.  But – with my skills – I was able to find this. It’s the transcripts.  Sounds eerily similar to what you have put forth and to what is exactly happening in this country now.

Liberal

Madeleine Begun Kane presents Dear Senator Inhofe posted at Mad Kane’s Political Madness.

Mad Kane – looks like you’re the only liberal who dared venture in to the carnival this week.  I am actually one of those “birthers” myself.  Until I see an actual true copy of this original birth certificate – I won’t believe me.  The one they continue to show around was printed on a dot-matrix printer – you know – something they didn’t have in 1961 – yet – no one really discusses that point.  However, regarding your limerick and Inhofe – not a really big fan of that guy myself.  He’s as crooked as the rest of the Dems and Repubs up there.

News

taucan62 presents New York Shipping Out The Homeless posted at rjjrdq’s America II, saying, “It looks like the big apple wants to make homelessness your problem, not theirs.”

Hey, Taucan – welcome back to the carnival.  That was exactly my first thought when I heard about this.  Giving the homeless a one-way ticket out of NY.  What ever happened to those compassionate liberals up there in NYC?  Is this how they really take care of the underserved and underprivileged – by making them the problem of other states?  Freakin’ crazy if you ask me.

SpkTruth2Pwr presents Iran Election: Fraud Allegations Die Without A Trace posted at The Apathy Remedy.

I can’t imagine living in a country like that either where opposition to the government is dealt with by death. It’s no wonder they are backing down from their claims.  Given that our administration didn’t support them, I can understand it.

Politics

Norbert Sluzewski presents The Lobbyist Does Not Speak the Peoples’ Voice posted at Naked Liberty.

I like the analogy using the “echo” game.  That does appear to be what is happening.  Lobbyists are only the voice of their clients.  Unfortunately, we the people, who actually should have the power, have no voice.  Our government has resigned themselves to listening only to lobbyists and special interest groups.  In fact, one particular special interest group – The Apollo Project – wrote the last “stimulus” bill.  Whatever happened to politicians actually writing the bills.  When you have lobbyists and special interest groups actually being the designers and architects of our bills – we no longer have a government for the people, by the people.  We need a serious overhaul of our government and we need to start electing representatives that will vow NEVER to do business with lobbyists or special interest groups.  I know Obama said he wouldn’t have lobbyists – but – he also said a lot of other things that he lied about.  Some of us tried to warn the people and to look at his past.  I’m hoping that after seeing his example, the electorate (we the people) will really start paying attention to history rather than rhetoric.  Great post.

Riversider presents Labour’s Public Spending Cuts Strategy – Asylum Seekers Can Be Hammered First posted at River’s Edge, saying, “The Labour government in the UK are beginning a huge programme of public spending cuts. Who have they chosen to hit first with their cuts? Yes the weakest, poorest and most desperate people around, asylum seekers. Wonder who will be next?”

Riverside – thanks for including this in the carnival this week.  It’s a great look inside the government of our cousins across the big pond.  When the U.S. government makes cuts – they always seem to threaten to cut the services of the underserved and underprivileged – not to mention – vital services like police and firefighters.  I wonder why they never consider cutting salaries of government workers, reducing the size of over-bloated departments, and just flat out getting rid of wasteful spending programs and departments altogether.  We give out hundreds of thousands of dollars in grants to stupid things like studying the effect of alcohol on strippers in Venezuela, or giving money to the arts to produce underground pornography – yet – they cut spending on vital services.  Looks like your government sucks as much as ours.

Wenchypoo presents My View on “Cash-for-Clunkers” posted at Wisdom From Wenchypoo’s Mental Wastebasket.

Good one.  The only thing this program will do is force used car businesses out of business using our tax dollars to do it.  Those so-called clunkers that get turned in are required to be scrapped and the engines completely disabled then shredded.  This will create an artificial reduction in the number of used cars in this country.  When supply is down and demand is up – prices go up.  Those once affordable used cars will now be so over-priced and no longer affordable that you may as well get a new car – one that the government will force on us – ones that we don’t want.  Just more government control. They can’t even run this program efficiently and they want to take over health care?

Here comes that Middle-class tax hike we told ya about!

Posted by: The BoBo  //  Category: A Nation at Risk, America, Congress, Liberals, Obama, Politics, President, government, marxism

See – and you guys on the left thought Obama was all for the middle-class and the little people

Axelrod: Obama Won’t Rule Out Middle-Class Tax Hike

I think what I like best about this particular article is that it comes from ABC – you know – All Barack Central – the one’s who so graciously turned over their entire day of programming to Obama.  I have a feeling that ABC actually thinks this is a good idea and that is why the covered this story – cuz – it sure isn’t because they oppose ObamaCare.

I’m not quite ready to say “I told you so” just yet.  What I’m waiting for is to have a complete compilation of all of his broken campaign promises in addition to all of the Marxist policies that he has implemented.  When he has finally finished getting everything through that will absolutely destroy this country and creates his ivory tower up on capital hill – THEN I will say it and THEN I will make sure I continue to say it every freakin day – as long as I possibly can.  I’m sure conservative bloggers are somewhere on the radar up there!

UPDATE – From FireAndreaMitchell.comRobert Gibbs / Obama’s backtracking on taxes now the laughing stock of White House Press Corp – this is a good video of that idiot Gibbs backpeddling.

The BoBo Carnival of Politics – June 28, 2009 Edition

Posted by: The BoBo  //  Category: America, BoBo, Carnival, Congress, Conservative, Education, Elections, Iran, Israel, Liberals, Obama, Politics, Public School System, Russia, School, globalization, government, libertarian, marxism

Quite the week we’ve had so far! Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Michael Jackson, and now Billy Mays all dead.  Unfreakin’ believable!  I wish piece of shit crap and tax bill would have died as well!  Anyway – after a two week hiatus – The BoBo Carnival of Politics is back with another great edition.  Have at it people!

Conservative

The Smarter Wallet presents Dave Ramsey’s Town Hall For Hope posted at The Smarter Wallet, saying, “How does Dave Ramsey explain the financial crisis?”

You’ll see below in response to your credit card discussion that I mentioned I already paid off a few cards and have one left before I’m out of debt.  I went through the Dave Ramsey Financial Peace University.  Dave Ramsey is awesome and what you have on your blog is absolutey right.  Once again, great post using a great resource.  I highly recommend it to anybody to view his Town Hall video and his Financial Peace University – especially in today’s economy.

Michael Bass presents Joe Tegerdine VS Gene Taylor! The Battle For Mississippi’s 4th Congressional District! posted at Debt Prison, saying, “Every now and then a person runs for office that gives us hope. For many voters in the last election Barack Obama was that person. Obama promised ambiguous ‘Change’ and the people bought it. Unfortunately, for many Obama fans and devout Democrats, his foreign policy actions and his further crack down on civil liberties has come to resemble something like George Bush part II.”

Interesting – hopefully, Tegerdine turns out to be a true conservative then maybe he can defeat that faux Democratic Conservative Taylor.

lsm presents Teddy?s Legacy Will Kill Us All posted at awaken the elephants blog.

LSM – excellent.  I have nothing further to add to this.

Scott Spiegel presents U.S. Invents Diabolical Weapon Called “Twitter” to Bring Down Iranian Regime posted at Scott Spiegel, saying, “President Obama said last week that he doesn’t want the U.S. to be seen as “meddling” in the recent Iranian presidential election. In his view, vocally supporting the protesters is comparable to the CIA’s coup against Mossadeq in 1953.”

Amen, brother!  We should be standing behind the Iranian citizens with the full faith and trust of our government and our own citizens.  Obama is wrong on this one.

Liberal

Madeleine Begun Kane presents Don’t Ask. Don’t Tell. Just Sign! posted at Mad Kane’s Political Madness.

Mad Kane – I’m sure I don’t need to say this – personally – I think this needs to be repealed entirely and have it back to what it was before Clinton instituted the Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell policy.  The UCMJ states that sodomy is a punishable offense as is any other forms of homosexual relations.  We don’t need gays OPENLY serving in the military.  This would be a huge bust for the morale of our military.  I’m sorry – but – the military is by no means ready for this and it would not be accepted.

Libertarian

Wenchypoo presents Just When You Thought You Ran Out of Hope posted at Wisdom From Wenchypoo’s Mental Wastebasket.

Bwahaha – Liberty Lentils – good one.

Miscellaneous

Bob Brooks presents Wall Street Execs Living Large While the Rest of the Country Hurts posted at Bob Brooks – Prudent Money Blog.

Don’t forget – Timothy “Turbo Tax” Geithner is a Goldman Sachs alumni himself and still has buddies there.  Nothing will be done.  Just more paybacks from this administration for these company’s providing material support for Obama.

Mikkal Travvis presents Ron Paul And The Federal Reserve posted at The Truth.

I don’t generally tend to side with Ron Paul on many issues.  I think he’s a nutjob with a lot of his positions.  However, I support him 100% with regards to doing away with the Federal Reserve and having them open their books.  The decision in the 30’s to hand over that much power to a private organization was by far one of the most idiotic things this country and our government has ever done.  It’s time to take that power away from them.

News

Terri Choate presents Trickle Down Learning posted at Plum Duff…not your ordinary gruel!, saying, “Maybe this is old news…but school districts regularly understate the money spent per pupil as they ask for more, more, more.”

Great article.  Public schools happens to be one of my “soap-box” issues.  While I don’t know what the per pupil cost is in my district – we have multiple layers of administration that are totally unnecessary.  Since when does a High School and Middle School need a freakin Assistant Principle for each grade and each of them having a secretary, etc etc – not to mention each grade having at least 2 “administrators” that handle discipline.  It’s gotten so ridiculous that most of our tax money goes to paying salaries instead of purchasing text books.  I sent four kids through public school.  2 graduated and 2 dropped out.  I’m sending my last 2 to private schools now.

Bradley Hankins presents Who Is Back? posted at Bradley Hankins, saying, “You was wondering when I was going to start up again. Well here I am.”

Welcome Back Bradley – looking forward to your analysis of the various bills.

The Smarter Wallet presents Applying For A Credit Card? Review The Credit Card Bill of Rights posted at The Digerati Life, saying, “Obama just signed into law some regulations that will help curb some of the unpopular practices done by the credit industry. Here’s what’s in the credit card bill of rights, which is under review by our government.”

Great words of advise for those who are thinking about getting a credit card.  I already cut up all mine and have paid them off.  I have one more to go then I’m out of credit card hell.  My advise is – use cash!  If you can’t afford to pay for it in cash – well – then in today’s economy – you really can’t afford it at all then.  Save for it instead.

Politics

Bradley Hankins presents Common Sense Foreign Policy: North Korea posted at Bradley Hankins, saying, “Common sense dealings with North Korea. Even more to come, just one was just too easy.”

You are absolutely right – we should not be looking to the international community to protect ourselves.  That is just plain ridiculous.  Great post.

NAOMI presents NEW AD AGAINST BENEFIT THIEVES posted at Diary From England.

Naomi – I’ll have to admit that I haven’t been paying real close attention to exactly what is going on over on your side of the big pond.  However, I have been following Daniel Hannen pretty closely so I get the point.  Unfortunately, we’re seeing a similar situation here in the U.S. – rather than second homes – our politicians get lifelong benefits and 100% salary after they retire and that even gets passed on to their spouses after they die and then the spouses collect 100% benefit and salary until they die.  Pretty freakin ridiculous that these politicians consider themselves so elite they can steal from we the people.

Bradley Hankins presents Transparency posted at Bradley Hankins, saying, “Honestly, putting legislation in plain English would help so much.”

Agreed!  However, this administration that promised transparency has given us none at all.

Jake presents Why the World Hates America (Part 1) posted at Global Implications, saying, “Given the negative attitude toward the United States around the world, I am writing a multi-part series on the actions of the US since World War II with the worst consequences. I will post an article every day and should finish the seven-part series on Friday, June 26.”

Jake – I hope you don’t mind but I took the liberty to post the links to the remaining articles.  This is a very interesting analysis.  However, I would say that we still have many more friends and allies than we do enemies.  It seems our only real enemies in the world are radical regimes. Please post up the last remaining parts in next week’s carnival! Personally, regarding Part 5 – I think we need to “unflinchingly” support Israel.  They are our only true ally in the middle east.  Being a former Hebrew Linguist in the Air Force – I understand Israel and the day-to-day struggles they have to face.  They are under constant terrorist attack every day.  They need our support and we should stand behind them all the way.

Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5

Ram Raghavan presents The incorrectness of political correctness posted at ramraghav.com, saying, “What is political correctness? What is its cause and its consequence?”

Ram – you are so totally right on with this post.  The only thing I would add here is that the history of Political Correctness actually has its roots in marxism and Russia.  Here’s another good resource for you on the history.

The BoBo Carnival of Politics – April 26, 2009 Edition

Posted by: The BoBo  //  Category: A Nation at Risk, America, Carnival, Civil Rights, Congress, Conservative, Constitution, Democrats, Duh, Fascism, Illegal immigrants, Iran, Israel, Liberals, Mexicans, Obama, Politics, President, Socialism, blogs, government, libertarian, marxism

Hello again everyone. What a fine weekend this is! Well, at least here in the Sunshine state it is. We’ve had quite a few submissions this week. Given all the news of last week – it doesn’t surprise me at all. We also have a more diverse group of submissions as well to choose from this week. Surprisingly, given this past week was Earth Week and Earth Day was celebrated on Wednesday – not one post about global warming! Thank you for not putting me through that. LOL.  I think you will enjoy them all. If you agree, or even disagree, with what these bloggers have to say – why don’t you head on over to their place(s) and leave them a comment. I’m sure they will appreciate it.

Also – I know I have a tendency to drown out some of the submissions with all of my additional chatter and comments.  I promise I’ll keep them more brief!

Conservative

Steve Parry presents Obama Focuses On Real Threat… Credit Card Companies posted at The Axis of Stevil.

Those damned evil credit card companies!  I’m sure if the Obama administration waterboarded those bank executives, waterboarding wouldn’t be considered torture!

Silicon Valley Blogger presents Does Achieving Wealth Make You “Upper Class”? Facts About Class posted at The Digerati Life, saying, “Thanks!”

I like your detailed explanation of the classes.  When I first read this – my first thought was about lottery winners.  If you were white trash before you won those millions – you’re still white trash when you get the millions.  Money doesn’t change who you are – just the amount of stuff you can buy.

The Smarter Wallet presents Positive Personal Financial Planning Strategies During A Down Economy posted at The Smarter Wallet.

These are all great tips.  I’m currently in the process of getting rid of all my debt.  I’ve already cut up my credit cards.  But – one thing I will NEVER do is buy stock in GE.  I don’t care whether they recover or not.  The fact that Immelt is using his assets (NBC, CNBC, MSNBC) to control the message, elect Obama, push Obama’s cap-and-trade initiatives, only to further the advancement of GE and become a quasi-government controlled entity just doesn’t sit right with me.

Democrats

Yoav B presents Barack Obama’s military history posted at Israeli Soldier’s LIFE & THOUGHTS, saying, “Barack Obama and IDF…. YES YES YES!”

Shalom Yoav and Welcome to the Carnival.  I have a great respect for the IDF unlike Obama.  Unless you meant that comparison as a joke, I really don’t see how you could come to that conclusion.  I do like your blog – an insider’s view of the IDF.  If you understood Obama the way we do – you might take it as an insult to think Obama would ever consider being a member of the IDF.  He hates you guys.

Liberal

Madeleine Begun Kane presents Rudy’s Family Values posted at Mad Kane’s Political Madness.

Wow, Mad Kane – I guess you got it bad for Rudy to bring up old news again! :)

vjack presents Taking a Stand Against War Crimes: Call for a Special Prosecutor and Impeachment of Bybee posted at Atheist Revolution.

First – we don’t fall under “international laws.”  We follow our American Constitution and the laws interpreted as a result of it.  Second – if you start prosecuting administration officials for their advice given to Presidents – all following governments would fail because no advisor will ever want to give any advice knowing they could possibly go to jail at the hands of the following administration that may have disagreed with that advice.  These advisors made their decisions and gave the advice based on their interpretations of the laws and put it in writing.  It’s not like their advise was given without great consideration.  What you are calling for is very dangerous.  Why are you only calling for the prosecution of Bush admin officials?  Why not Clinton’s administration for ordering the bombing of an aspirin factory?  Why not LBJ for Viet Nam?  Why not Carter for…oh yeah – he failed miserably.  In any case – you need to be very careful of what you wish for – you just might get it…and…if you get it this time…our country suffers and becomes impotent as a result.

Miscellaneous

Lisa Harding presents Real? « Plan “A” posted at Plan “A”, saying, “Adoption”

Well, not exactly related to politics.  However, I think this is a very important message to get out to everyone.  Adopted children are special children and the parents who adopt them are the “real” parents.  Common sense has left many people nowadays.  Thanks for this submission.

David Verjano & Anthony Hernandez presents The Virtue of Restraint posted at Life as (Un)usual.

Two words – I agree!

Joseph presents why I despise liberals posted at conservative joe.

Did you really vote for Obama?  Oh well, we all make mistakes I guess.  But, if you really are a conservative – how could you possibly have missed all the signs that he was indeed going to spend and waste our taxpayer dollars with all of his “share the wealth” schemes.  I do however agree with your assessment about closed-minded liberals who only say make these incendiary statements to be a member of their elitist clubs.  I never did like Garafalo or Olbermann.

Sarah Scrafford presents 10 Most Surprising College Majors in Presidential History posted at Learn-gasm.

Welcome back Sarah – You’re right – I was surprised by this list – Especially Truman.

Kampanye Damai Pemilu Indonesia 2009 presents Kampanye Damai Pemilu Indonesia 2009 posted at Blog Pemilihan Umum, saying, “Kampanye Damai Pemilu Indonesia 2009 mulai 1 Februari sampai 1 Mei 2009. Di tahun 2009 ini Indonesia akan menggelar 2 kali pemilihan umum. Yang pertama ialah pemilihan umum untuk memilih wakil-wakil rakyat yang akan duduk di parlemen Majelis Permusyawatan Rakyat atau MPR. Dan pemilihan umum yang kedua diselenggarakan untuk memilih presiden dan wakil presiden Republik Indonesia. Pelaksanaan pemilu sendiri digelar pada tanggal 9 April 2009 untuk pemilihan umum wakil-wakil rakyat di dewan legislatif Majelis Permusyawaratan Rakyat dan pada tanggal 8 Juli 2009 untuk pemilihan presiden dan wakil presiden Republik Indonesia”

Umm.  What? :)   Okay – I don’t understand the language – but – I do know how to use the Google Translator.  Given that this is related to politics – perhaps someone who actually does speak this language might find this blog with this post – so – I guess I’ll leave it.

C. E. Dowalt presents Jimmy Obama posted at Money Confidential.

Jimmy Obama – that’s a good one.  You make some very excellent points about this administration and how ineffectual it has already become as it pursues this course to socialism and appeasement of evil.  Excellent.

News

Chris presents Mad Libs With Jackie Chan And The Yellow Press posted at Martial Development, saying, “Everyone is rushing to condemn Jackie Chan for his recent political speech. Methinks they protest too much…”

I think Jackie Chan usually has a level head.  I’m sure your contextual translation is probably more accurate.

Politics

lsm presents Cars Smart enough to Kill. posted at awaken the elephants blog.

That’s a big Duh! LOL.  I’m sure we taxpayers paid for that study.  I won’t be giving up my SUV any time soon either.

Mark Couturier presents Grannies’ Protests Against Afghan War Falls on Deaf Ears posted at Independent-American.

I remember reading this and thinking – who listens to people wearing granny panties anyway?

Mark Couturier presents Were the Tea Party Protests Carefully Staged Events, or Did They Represent a Genuine People’s Revolt? posted at Independent-American.

I encourage my readers to go over to this one and respond.  I responded to let his left-leaning blogger know that these Tea Parties were not about Obama and that they were all sponsored by local communities and local individuals.  I got blasted by the loonies over there.  They really are sheep – just parroting the same things over and over that they heard from MSM, CNN, and MSNBC.  They really don’t get it.  I don’t know how Mark attracts them to his site – but – he really gets the sheeple on his site.

Aetius Romulous presents Mark to Market Magic – and Madness posted at ScreamBucket.

We need to bring logic back in to this country.  The suspension of Mark to Market was probably one of the most idiotic moves of our lifetime.  Having worked for one of the Big 5 accounting firms myself at one time – I am very familiar with FASB.  You’re right – when it comes to the government – they have no teeth – but – they will damned sure bear them to accounting firms and corporations.

Mark Couturier presents House Republicans to Napolitano: Get out! posted at Independent-American.

Well – considering she just pissed off the Canadians by declaring that 9/11 terrorists came from Canada, and the fact she allowed millions of illegal immigrants through the Arizona borders while she was their Governor – I would say this woman is in the wrong job.  She needs to go.

Mark Couturier presents Will the Republicans Reverse Their Position on Gay Rights? posted at Independent-American.

As I stated in my comments on your site – given the fact that 73% of this country opposes gay marriage – Republicans are on the right side of this issue.  But – if they were really smart – they would get out of the moral issues and stick strictly to following the constitution.  As a Conservative, I am personally opposed to gay marriage.  However, the Libertarian side of me – and the side of me that follows the constitution – says that government has no reason to interfere.

Mark Couturier presents Book on Great Depression Finds Favor Among Conservatives posted at Independent-American.

I haven’t read the book yet myself – but, from the reviews its getting – especially from the Liberals – it must be spot on.  We all know that when someone comes upon the truth about Liberalism and compares FDR to the fascist ideologies that he espoused – the libs come out from the woodwork to defend his socialist policies.

David Lamb presents When Will Congress Learn to Read? posted at Killer Buffalo.

Bwahahaha!  Good one.  They don’t have time to read the laws they are implementing.  They’re too busy giving grandiose speeches to spread the lies to keep their power.  If they really did care about this country and were doing their jobs – they would read the bills they are signing of on – and that goes for both parties.

Len Penzo presents How Mexico Can Save Its Oil Industry: Sell Baja California to the US posted at Len Penzo . Com, saying, “You can argue that this wild idea is just another example of bald-faced American imperialism, but if Mexico continues to insist on banning foreign investment in its dying oil industry that country may cease to exist as we know it anyway — and those in the US that can afford it will be paying $8 for a gallon of unleaded.”

Well – it’s a good proposal.  However, Americans would be saddled with another piece of resource rich land that the Government will not allow us to exploit.  Unless we were actually allowed to extract the resources – it would be a huge loss for this country.
