September 15, 2012 | 
Author So, we lose an ambassador and three consulate staffers in addition to injured service members in Libya – and now we find out that the POS POTUS we have hasn’t read a single security briefing leading up to the attack. Not only that, but we knew 48 hours in advance there was going to be an attack on this consulate – and it turned out to be a coordinated attack – not some idiot uprising as the result of an anti-pedophile prophet youtube movie as this idiot administration would lead you to believe. AND – they deny that this major anti-American uprising has absolutely nothing to do with America or our policies! WTF? This is the MOST inept freakin administration this country has ever known.
So – as shown above there was intelligence 48 hours in advance, the President hasn’t reviewed the security briefings in two weeks leading up to the attack, and a local Libyan security official even warned the ambassador that his security was lacking. In fact – there wasn’t even any U.S. Marines protecting this facility – it was protected by Libyan security forces who actually aided and abetted the mob that killed our Ambassador and staffers. We also have learned that as early as September 4th the U.S. was provided intelligence that there would be major uprisings and attacks on U.S. and Israeli embassies in Cairo. Do you suppose if POS POTUS had actually read the security briefings and connected the dots that this could have been prevented? Of course it could have. Yet, this administration is trying to cover their asses and are now claiming they HAD NO INTELLIGENCE and could not have prevented the attack! BULL SHIT!!!
This POS POTUS and administration, as is the usual motive, rather than stand firmly and condemn the attacks on our sovereign soil and citizens – went right out and apologized to the terrorists!!! Now, they’re trying to backtrack the whole thing and deny there was ever an apology made and they did not clear the statement coming from the Cairo Embassy. Well, in case this POS POTUS has forgotten – the buck stops with him. HE and HE alone is responsible for ALL of his administration, their actions, their statements, and every policy regardless of whether he personally was involved. The POTUS IS RESPONSIBLE. But, the inept dipshit that he is – lays blame, deflects blame, and accepts no responsibility for anything.
We have to get these damned progressive socialist apologist shitheads out of this administration immediately! We get an opportunity in November to change the course of this country. Never in the history of this country has America been as weakened and seen as weak by the international community as we are now. You know, its gotta suck when the previously most inept POTUS in this country has to correct the current most inept POTUS. Carter even corrected Obambi that Egypt is an ally. Me, personally, after the Islamofascist Brotherhood took over Egypt – they should never ever be considered an ally ever again. Their status as a non-NATO ally needs to be revoked immediately. The entire middle east has become one big Islamofascist anti-American hotbed of terrorists and terrorist sympathizers.
I guess one of the biggest surprises, which shouldn’t be much of a surprise at all, is that this idiotic mainstream media that we have, rather than act as true journalists and the “Fourth branch of government” acting as the watchdog over our government has decided to aide this POS POTUS in covering up his idiocy and ineptness over the Libyan consulate attack and uprising in the middle east rather than press him for answers. The MSM has become complicit in the deaths of our citizens abroad. Romney made a forceful speech and condemned the attack as well as condemn the Obambi administration for their apology. Rather than stand behind Romney – they attacked him for his attack on this administration. They should be out there pressing this administration – not attacking a man who gets it.

I know – I’m running a little late in getting this thing out today. Sorry – had some term papers and power point presentations to pull together – you know – priorities! In any case – here it is – another great edition with some great stuff from your usual submitters as well as some new guys. All in all, I think this is going to be one of the best ones by far. We have something for everyone in this one. Seems there are a lot of people out there pissed off about this stimulus/spending/pork bill and the tax evader friends of Obama!
Madeleine Begun Kane presents Only Peons Have To Pay Taxes posted at Mad Kane’s Political Madness.
Good one! I see we’re both on the same side of this issue! I’m just happy that Daschle withdrew. Now, if Obama really wants to do the right thing and prove to the country that he really is about change – he needs to fire Geithner.
Buck Says presents Pilosi & Reid- An Economic Tsunami posted at Buck Says, saying, “Neither Pilosi or Reid have a clue about the depression and the congressional actions that deepened it’s effect. Smoot and Hawley are obviously unknown to them.”
Buck – when I saw that provision in there – my initial thought was – okay, cool. That might help American businesses. But, then after longer reflection I came to my senses and the same realization as you – that we would effectively cut off America from the rest of the world and this would continue this recession/depression even longer. I had not heard of the Smoot-Hawley Act until recently myself. Good post.
David Gross presents Reflections on the coronation posted at The Picket Line, saying, “I am embarrassed for my friends and my country that we still enthusiastically install royalty at such great expense at this late date after the success of our revolution. And unlike the former monarchies which have devolved into republics and divested their crowns of significant power, we seem largely determined to attach all of our hopes and most of our sovereignty onto our king (or even, as the last eight years showed, some court jester).
The people have spoken. If the people had any sense of shame or any self-awareness, they’d shut the fuck up. They’ve been speaking for a long time now and casting terrible, hateful imprecations that have called forth demons that they refuse to accept responsibility for or attempt to control.”
Nicely said David – I got nothing to add.

Len – a very humorous look at a household budget in the hands of the Ahnold! Considering the guy’s a RINO I saw this coming myself. What I don’t get is, considering that California is very much a conservative state (with the exception of LA County and the San Francisco Bay area) I just can’t see how the hell you guys got in that mess out there. Are there really THAT many people in those two areas that drown out your voices? I quite enjoyed the way you tied in his movie quotes to household budgeting! Good one!

Bwahahaha. That’s some pretty funny stuff. This lady truly is an idiot. Being a good Catholic boy myself – I can tell you that she is definitely lying on the abortion issue. As for all those other little nuances that you pointed out are classics! So, the guy she called an idiot is now the one she falls back on when trying to explain why we should give money to people who don’t pay taxes? Good one.

DWSUWF presents Yo. Barack. Stimulate this. posted at Divided We Stand United We Fall, saying, “Bobo – please ignore that last submission. screwed up the link. This is the right one.
Did we learn nothing from the hastily passed $700 Billion Wall Street bailout last year? You remember – when we witnessed the rampant stupidity of a craven congress rolling over to an executive demand for fast action on the basis of economic fear mongering – and as a result – were treated to the spectacle of our representatives wasting massive amounts of taxpayer resources without really understanding what they are passing or having any idea where the money will go or how it will be used.
Apparently we learned nothing. This is exactly what is happening with the Stimulus package. Unable to pass a $900 Billion massive pork-laden stimulus spending package that will do nothing except spend money we do not have on stuff we do not need, wildly increase the debt burden on future generations, and ultimately require devaluation of the dollar – the Democrats are in the process of paying off a couple of Republican Senators with a share of the pork, and will likely pass a $800 Billion massive pork-laden spending package that will do nothing except spend money we do not have on stuff we do not need, increase the debt burden on future generations, and ultimately require devaluation of the dollar.”
Thanks DWS – I don’t need to do my rant on this now. You’ve said much of what I thought and much of what I hadn’t thought of.

Finally, a breath of fresh air – a Democrat that doesn’t drink the kool-aid. Well said, Steve. I’m glad you can recognize that had any of these appointees been Republicans you would be demanding their heads – so – why should you not be doing the same for these appointees of Obama’s? Like I said to Mad Kane up there – if Obama really wants to do the right thing – he now needs to fire Geithner

debergerac78 presents Is Blagojevich blameless … or a blowhard? posted at The Business Ethics Blog, saying, “The Senate may have jumped the gun impeaching Blagojevich before his corruption trial has concluded–now the governer is trying to get public sympathy on his side.”
Thanks for this submission Debergerac – I think Lauren is on target – but – we already know the outcome as not only did the Senate listen to the “snippets” that we in the general public heard – but, from what I understand – they also listened to some detailed conversations from other wire tapped tapes. I saw him on Letterman last week – this guy is a freakin’ joke. Good riddance.
Joe Manausa presents Tallahassee Foreclosure Report | Tallahassee Real Estate Blog posted at Tallahassee Real Estate Blog, saying, “There is plenty of news in the national media about foreclosures. From everything that I have read, I suspect for every 100 foreclosures that have and will hit the real estate market during our current housing crisis, we have only seen 2 or 3. The bulk of the foreclosures have yet to hit the market.”
Okay, Joe – I think I can let this one slip buy given the fact that foreclosures are in the news and it is a big part of the economic mess we’re in. Should you submit any more – just be sure to get some more political stuff in the posts as well. I personally learned a little more about the foreclosure market by reading this post and the fact we may not be getting the whole story from the media.

Raymond presents Second Stimulus Check For Obama 2009 Economic Stimulus Package? posted at Money Blue Book.
Hey Raymond – It was that “Low Income Tax Credit” that got me when I saw that. That’s no tax credit – that’s taking my money that I paid in taxes and giving it to those lower income individuals who paid no taxes – wait – isn’t that the socialist wealth redistribution plan he was talking about before he got elected that he tried to deny he wasn’t talking about?

Silicon Valley Blogger presents Wall Street Jobs Pay Out Big Bonuses: The Investment Banker Defends His Salary posted at The Digerati Life, saying, “I was hoping this discussion would fit your carnival. People are debating on the issue of Wall Street’s pay.”
I think this fits – considering Obama is trying to stick his foot in the private sector by telling business owners and CEO’s how much they are allowed to make in salaries. Now, while I agree with much of what you have stated and that those banks and other corporations that took the bailouts on our dime should not in any way receive bonuses, and I believe they should take pay cuts – that is not up to the government to decide. These are decisions that should be made by the boards of those corporations. We need to let the free-market capitalist system work. When those big companies continue to pay those CEO’s the big bucks – Joe America will be outraged and will stop using their services. The boards will either cut their pay in order to stay in business or they will fail. I still say we need to let Wall Street fail and reset the economy. At least this way we can keep our banks from being nationalized since the government won’t have a piece of it. But, alas – we’re too late for that aren’t we. Those greedy bankers sold their souls to the government. We’re now in a catch 22 methinks! If those banks fail now – we the people lose our money and the government takes over. Still, I think we need to put public pressure on those financiers instead of letting the government do it.
Ron McKie presents Timothy Geithner thinks you?re fucking stupid posted at Phuck Politics.
Ron – don’t mince words now! He and Obama just pulled one of the biggest con jobs on the American public. I know if I was $34k behind in my taxes for a couple years I would probably be in jail by now. They’ve just set the new standards for the next 4 years – them and us. They have their own rules and we have to follow other rules. There is absolutely nothing about “change” in this Obama administration. It’s the same old Democratic tax and spend, Republican good ol’ boy network, Washington politics as usual.

Excellent analysis and commentary Tamir. Given the fact that Hamas is about the size of a pimple on the ass of Israel – any response would be considered “disproportionate.” But, I am in full agreement – they need to eliminate the source once and for all.

Let’s hope they actually slow this damned thing down. I know the Republicans are making an attempt to make sure every line is read and anything that does not stimulate the economy is addressed – the problem is that the Dems and Obama are trying to sell the public a bill of goods stating the Republicans are just being obstructionists. Funny how they keep forgetting to mention there are several from their side that are opposed to all the pork and earmarks in there!

Those murderous scumbags! Yes, I’m talking about that tragedy in Mumbai. It’s been burning my ass every day we learn more about the tragedy there – but – then I came across this story. How the hell can any religion that does this kind of shit possibly claim to be a religion of peace? Where is the freakin’ outcry from the rest of those so called moderates from this damned religion? When the hell are we going to stop pussyfooting around with these terrorist scumbags and just take them out?
At least the Indian forces knew how to handle the situation – shoot to kill!
I saw these pictures and I just wanted to cry for this little kid – then, I became angry all over again! This little boy just turned two years old – and – the horror of all horrors – he witnessed his parents’ (one a Rabbi) murder. Those filthy bastards killed his parents in front of him!
Here’s just one of many stories about little Moshe Holtzberg
Tot Orphaned in Mumbai lands in Israel
By MARK LAVIE,
JERUSALEM (Dec. 1) – The cries of little Moshe Holtzberg wounded hearts Monday at a tearful memorial for his parents in India. “Mommy, mommy, mommy!” he wailed, clutching a toy basketball while squirming in the arms of mourners at the Mumbai synagogue.
Then the toddler and the caretaker who rescued him from the terrorist attack boarded a jet along with the bodies of his parents and four other Jews slain at the Chabad House to fly to Israel — a place the curly-haired 2-year-old had never seen.
The wrenching scene at the service played over and over again on Israeli television as government officials, Chabad leaders and relatives prepared for the funerals of the victims and the future of the orphaned Moshe.
The Israeli air force plane landed at Israel’s international airport just before midnight and Israeli officials joined relatives and friends of the victims for a state ceremony there.
Moshe’s father, Rabbi Gavriel Noach Holtzberg, 29, and mother, Rivka, 28, ran the headquarters of the ultra-Orthodox Chabad Lubavitch movement in Mumbai. They were among six Israeli citizens killed at the center during the city’s three-day terror siege.
Moshe was spirited out of Chabad House on Thursday by Sandra Samuel, a nanny who had worked at the center for years. She found him crying beside his parents’ bodies, his pants drenched in blood.
“I don’t know that he can comprehend or that he will remember seeing his parents shot in cold blood,” said Robert Katz, a New York-based fundraiser for Migdal Ohr, an Israeli orphanage founded by the boy’s family.
Moshe was accompanied to Israel by his maternal grandparents, Yehudit and Shimon Rosenberg, who had flown to Mumbai on Friday. Samuel came along, too, to provide the dazed child a familiar face as he starts his new life.
When terrorists seized Chabad House, Samuel locked herself in a laundry room, then she heard Moshe’s mother screaming “Sandra, help!” Then the screaming stopped, and it was quiet, Katz said.
She cracked open the door of her hiding place and saw a deserted staircase. She ran up one flight and found the rabbi and his wife, covered in blood and shot to death. She snatched up the crying boy, bolted down the stairs and ran out of the building.
“She’s been there with him throughout,” Katz said.
Though Samuel had no passport or papers, Moshe’s granduncle, Rabbi Yitzchak David Grossman, helped arrange for her to get a visa to Israel. In a sad coincidence, Grossman is founder of the Migdal Ohr orphanage.
At the memorial service, Rosenberg struggled to deal with the deaths of his daughter and son-in-law as his grandson cried nearby. “The Lord giveth. The Lord taketh away. Blessed be the name of the Lord,” he said, quoting the Book of Job.
Moshe’s father was a dual American-Israeli citizen and his mother was Israeli. The couple lived in Israel and New York before they moved to Mumbai in 2003.
It was unclear who would who get custody of Moshe, Chabad officials said, though the closely knit ultra-Orthodox outreach group would provide a large safety net.

Again! I have the great pleasure of hosting some really great posts from this past week from some really great bloggers. Bet you can’t figure what a lot of them are about?
Conservative
ChristianPF presents McCain/Obama – Who is better for your money? posted at Money in the Bible | Christian Personal Finance Blog, saying, “A debate over which candidate is better for your wallet”
Actually – that’s the question posed over at this blog. It’s up to you as the commenters to debate the issue.
Hairy Swede presents Doing My Civic Duty in Sweden posted at A Swedish American in Sweden, saying, “An American abroad votes conservative. From a very non-conservative country.”
Having grown up in the military and serving myself – I found myself abroad on two occasions in which I had to vote absentee as well. I commend you for doing your civic duty – and from so far away at that! When I was reading your first paragraph – I had to chuckle – as that was NEVER my experience when I was in Europe! Then I got to your follow-up – good one!
Steve Parry presents Congratulations To Barack Obama posted at The Axis, saying, “Setting the record straight.”
Excellent post, Steve. While I am not predicting doom and gloom myself – I will agree that Obama will most definitely weaken the U.S. The Republicans lost this election because a.) McCain was a very poor choice of candidate, and b.) The Republicans forgot who they were and lost their way. They kinda forgot they were supposed to be AGAINST big government, didn’t they? This is an excellent call to conservatives and to D.C. Republicans to return to their roots.
Curry Kenworthy presents Conservatives don’t really understand elections posted at Curry Kenworthy, saying, “Conservatives are brilliant on the issues, but liberals know how to get out the vote–and change the culture.”
Eh! I sorta agree. There was a huge turnout during the Reagan years to get people involved. However, for the most part, I would agree with a lot of the rest of what you have to say. In fact, Obama used technology brilliantly as compared to the McCain campaign. You wouldn’t believe how many “MyObamaSpace” pages I came across. Apparently, they set up their own Obama campaign social network. Additionally, they collected millions of cell phone numbers and were sending out texts messages regularly on election day to get those young’ns out there to vote. The turnout was the same as in 2004 – but – they pulled the youth vote in that wasn’t there before. I think a lot of Republicans and Conservatives stayed home this year.
Democrats
The Hip Hop Democrat presents Jay-Z running for Mayor of New York City in 2009? posted at The Hip Hop DEMOCRAT.
Now that is funny! But, let me also remind you of a few other celebrity politicians – mostly from the past: Ronald Reagan, Sonny Bono, Al Franken, Fred Grandy, P.T. Barnum (yes, THAT P.T. Barnum), Bill Bradley (former basketball player), Clint Eastwood (I lived in Monterey when he was the Mayor of Carmel), and John Glenn (former astronaut) just to name a few. The most recent ones we have are Al Franken and Jerry Springer. But, you’re right – I can’t see Jay-Z being the Mayor of NYC either. I can’t see him filling the same shoes as Bloomberg, Giuliani, Koch, and LaGuardia, just to name a few of the great ones!

Sarah Scrafford presents Obama vs. McCain: What the Next President Will Mean for Day Traders posted at Currency Trading.net.
Well, I personally don’t know much about day trading. I’m in it for the long haul. But – if I have any day traders who read this blog – there is some good info over there. While this is initially a comparison of both candidates – now that Obama has been elected – this is a good primer to follow up and see how Obama fares in the economy and what happens with the market.

GrrlScientist presents Living the Scientific Life (Scientist, Interrupted): Election Eve 2008 Celebration in NYC’s Times Square posted at Living the Scientific Life, saying, “One of the nice things about living in NYC is the fact that there are often fun things happening that are both spontaneous and free-of-charge. One of those events occurred last evening and continued through the wee hours of today, when I spent election eve in NYC’s Times Square, along with half a million other people.”
You know – when I first read this – the first thing that came to mind was the last South Park episode with half the town celebrating, getting drunk, tipping cars, and puking everywhere (especially after seeing the picture of the guy hanging on the streetlight – that’s EXACTLY what Stan’s dad did, LOL) – while the other half of the town were either hiding in bunkers or killing themselves.
Those are some great pix you have up there. My favorite is the close-up of the police officer. Excellent blend of pix to illustrate your content. I enjoyed your journey!

David Lamb presents Riding the Wave of Recession: A history of economic depression in presidential politics posted at Killer Buffalo, saying, “I didn’t realize you did the carnival so often. I’m glad I didn’t miss my chance!”
One of my fellow bloggers from Inside Government! But – oh, David – how dare you try to tell us that Clinton left Bush with a higher debt than he started with! Don’t you know that he left office with a surplus! Rubbish! I guess all those I.O.U.’s in the Social Security till didn’t count! But, with hindsight being 20/20 – I would say that you were spot on with regards to the economic downturn being blamed on Bush as the primary reason McCain lost. Personally, I see Obama doing the same thing as Carter. While he is surrounding himself with Clinton era staff – we already know how that turned out – I think he’s going to make even worse mistakes than Clinton did. I still don’t see how those libs are able to seriously say that we had prosperity during Clinton’s reign. I guess they will always re-write history to slant their way.
Joe Hayes presents Political Jokes posted at Restoring Your Finances and Your Faith, saying, “Some really funny politically oriented jokes, just in time for the Election! Includes Barack Obama and John McCain related humor, and quotes from famous people too.”

PicktheBrain presents Obama, McCain Education Plans Compared posted at Ace Online Schools.
Well – since we don’t really have to worry about McCain’s plans – we’ll just have to see what kind of damage Obama can do to our education system. Personally, the first thing I would do is get rid of that No Child Left Behind crap! The fact of the matter is – that program is designed to leave kids behind. They force low performing kids to drop out of high school and encourage them to go for their G.E.D.s instead which gets those from bringing their scores down. Not only that – but rather than teach the kids the basics – the schools are teaching to the test instead.
I think his most dangerous plan is to force ALL student loans through the government – just growing Government again! We know what his unflinching support for Fannie & Freddie did.
Raymond presents My Vote Does Not Matter Because I Do Not Live In A Swing State posted at Money Blue Book.
Personally, I think every vote counts. However, I do agree with you that our Electoral College system of voting needs to either be changed or completely eradicated. But – while you might think your vote doesn’t matter nationally – it DOES matter locally – and – does have an impact nationally when voting for your Representatives and Senators!
GrrlScientist presents Sarah Palin: In her own words posted at Living the Scientific Life, saying, “Sarah Palin’s greatest hits: Proof that all a woman needs to succeed in America is a pretty face and a tight ass.”
I think you guys are being WAAY to hard on Sarah. She’s a lot more intelligent than you guys realize. The problem is that the McCain camp scripted her. I’ve seen her in action prior to her being selected as VEEP. When she’s not scripted – she comes off real classy. There’s a reason why she has a 90% approval rating in her state – and it’s not because she’s hot!
What you may not know is that during the entire election cycle – she held a security clearance higher than both Obama and McCain. She’s briefed daily on the National Security Intelligence because of Alaska’s proximity to Russia. She had inside knowledge that neither Obama or McCain had. Obama is just now getting those daily briefings that she receives every day as the Alaskan governor. The Alaskan National Guard and the U.S. Air Force in Alaska are on 24/7 alert because of Russia. She knows the compliment and capabilities of the entire military forces at her disposal. Russia is a real threat – and – she’s 100% correct when she was talking about Russia in American/Alaskan air space every time the take off. (I have inside knowledge on that as well).
Regarding her comments regarding the job of the VP – according to the U.S. Constitution – she’s 100% correct about that as well! You might want to go back and read that document.
Her biggest problem regarding all those other interviews was that she got caught up in the talking points that she was required to stay on. I hope one day you get an opportunity to see her in action without the cue cards. You might change your opinion about her.
Alli presents Rahm Emanuel Advocates Compulsory Civil Service posted at The Smoking Argus, saying, “As previously reported, then Democratic Presidential candidate, Barack Obama while speaking in Colorado this past July, stated:
“We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objective that we’ve set. We’ve gotta have a “Civilian National Security Force” that’s just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded.””
Excellent post Alli. I’ve lived overseas where military service is compulsory. I would hate to see this happen in this country – even in a Civilian National Security Force. Sounds kinda like Hitler’s Brown Shirts to me. Also – wasn’t it JFK that instituted the draft? It seems to me those loony liberals who are supposed to be all about civil liberties and freedom are the first ones to push FORCED service to the country.
Steve Faber presents How Will President Barack Obama Change What You Drive? posted at super gas saver, saying, “One thing about Obama, he has ambition. He also has an agenda to go along with it. A part of that will definitely have an impact on your choice of vehicle in the future.”
Bwahahaha! That’s some pretty funny shit! Oh – wait – you were serious! Hey, I’m all for getting better mileage to the gallon and all – but – not at the expense of our economy. These are some pretty lofty plans that you have outlined over at your place. But, I don’t see it happening – especially the plug-in hybrids. We are sooooo far away from having an efficient fuel-cell battery that 2015 is not even foreseeable. We could have more oil and natural gas in production to fuel this country economically before that would ever happen.
Also – that use it or lose it lease program – in case you aren’t aware – the oil companies would LOVE to lose those leases they have. There’s no oil in them – but – the government forces them to continue to hold on to them and pay them for these bad leases. They’ve been explored and have been found to be empty. The problem is – the government won’t lease the areas that HAVE the oil in them because they don’t want the oil companies drilling. As a consumer – I would LOVE for those oil companies to lose those bad leases as well – it would help to bring down the price of gas.
Anyway – for those of you who don’t know Obama’s plans – this is a great place to find out! See if you agree with it.
DWSUWF presents President Barack Obama – Let the healing begin. posted at Divided We Stand United We Fall, saying, “Barack Obama will indeed unify the left with the far left, pull in the moderate left, and be the President that speaks clearly for the entire sweeping 52% mandate they represent. Congratulations to the moderate, centrist, libertarian, and conservative blogging brethren who embraced Obama’s rhetoric of change and hope. You got what you hoped for!”
Oh how correct you are! BTW – I watched that South Park episode the other night. If you haven’t seen the whole thing – it’s freakin hilarious! Now – back to the regularly schedule program. Don’t you just love the way the left is throwing out their olive branches and embracing EVERYONE in this country! You have some great examples there of just how much love the left has and how they will do what they need to do to help unify and bring everyone together for the good of this country! Oh, I sure HOPE when they realize the CHANGE Obama has in mind is not the CHANGE they HOPED for – they don’t start blaming it on we Conservatives – considering we’re the minority now and have absolutely no power in D.C.!
U.S. Common Sense presents Open letter to Barack Obama posted at U.S. Common Sense, saying, “This one has already been picked up by Reuters and Palm Beach Post. It is a letter welcoming and warning Obama on his entrance into the White House.”
Excellent letter! How the heck do you get picked up by Reuters? This is a great read for all.
Kevin presents How to Deal With Election Withdrawal posted at The Red Stapler Chronicles.
Funny stuff – I’d like to add lucky #13 here – Start off everyone one of your statements to your co-workers with “My friend,” and then make sure to reference all other co-workers as “that one.”

Some of you may have heard this on Rush Limbaugh today – someone linked the audio to a youtube video. Listen to this yourselves. If you think Obama isn’t all about redistribution of wealth and socialism – you are sadly mistaken. For those of you who have friends and family that don’t listen to Rush or conservative talk radio – send them here to listen to it themselves – straight out of the socialist’s mouth!
Listen to this very closely my friends – he thinks that our constitution is flawed because it LIMITS government from interfering in your daily lives. He wants the government to be bigger and to be able to force things on the people as a whole. He sees our constitution as a negative in that it “tells you what the states CAN’T do to you. It tells you what the government CAN’T do to you.” Emphasis there is mine!
Notice – he wants the government to be able TO DO things TO YOU! Don’t buy in to his lies folks. He’s as socialist and redistributionist as they come! He is saddened that the courts CAN’T force redistribution of wealth. He will do it legislatively if he gets the Democratic super-majority and if he wins the election. He will put in judges that will attempt to force this on you through laws!
I also found a link to the full story here. He thinks the Warren Court decision wasn’t radical enough in that it didn’t provide for redistributive properties – he wants to be able to take your hard earned dollars and give it to “the dispossessed” as he calls it. His only agenda is to take from “the rich white folk” and give it to black Americans.
Hey, if that isn’t reverse racism I don’t know what is. Don’t get me wrong – despite the fact that those on the left will automatically label me as racist just because I won’t vote for Obama – the fact is I am very charitable with MY OWN money. I don’t need Obama and the Dummicrats to take it from me and give it out to whomever they want. I give to ministries around here that don’t discriminate and will take care of ALL the poor in the area regardless of sex, race, etc. Obama’s policies ONLY benefit the poor black Americans. Remember – he attended a church for 20 years that preached white-hate.
If I’m a racist because I think we should give charity non-discriminately of our own accord rather than have the government take our money to give to the poor black-Americans – then so be it! I guess I’m a racist. But, please take heed and listen closely to his words. He has not changed!

Hey, their exact words, not mine! From Face the State comes this article:
Democracy Alliance memo details Dem plan to “educate the idiots” and target minorities
October 1, 2008
Face The State Staff Report
In a confidential internal memorandum obtained by Face The State (PDF), the Colorado Democracy Alliance outlines a roster of “operatives” who worked for Democratic victory in the 2006 general election. The document outlines specific tasks for various members of the state’s liberal infrastructure, including a campaign to “educate the idiots,” assigned to the state’s AFL-CIO union. Among the operation’s intended targets: “minorities, GED’s, drop-outs.”
Think I’m kidding about this? This is straight out of the internal document:
Okay, you guys on the left – isn’t this your wake-up call? Do you see how they think of those less educated and the minorities? They only think of them as another voter base. They don’t really care about your issues!!
Do you think I made that up? Here’s the original document titled: Strategy Group & 527 Coordinating Operatives. (This opens in to a .pdf file) Please read all the way through that and check out their various strategies and the names for them. These guys are despicable!
Do these people represent you? Is this how you on the left really think about minorities and the least educated of our population? I guess you figure they aren’t smart enough to figure out you guys are just toying with them and buying their votes!
Here’s more from that article:
Individuals named in the document, marked “CONFIDENTIAL,” “for internal use only,” and “DO NOT DISTRIBUTE,” are high-level elected Democrats including House Speaker Andrew Romanoff, former Senate President Joan Fitz-Gerald, as well as Gov. Bill Ritter‘s press aide and former campaign chief Evan Dreyer. All are specially marked as “off-the-record or covert.”
Mentioned as a “critical contact” was Dominic DelPapa, a partner at Ikon Public Affairs. DelPapa was at the center of recent controversy stemming from the February leak of a confidential memo he authored detailing a multi-million dollar “foot on throat” attack on Republican U.S. Senate candidate Bob Schaffer, among others.
I just love their code names! Can they be any more mean-spirited or just plain ignorant? How about the fact they have “covert” and “off-the-record” operatives. Sounds like a suicide mission doesn’t it? In other words – if you’re caught conducting these nefarious operations…you’re on your own. We will deny everything.
Do we really want to have a president in office that supports this kind of subversiveness and divisiveness within our own country? This sure sounds elitist and racist to me.
Pathetic!
