November 11, 2008 | 
Author What? BoBo – you must be out of your freakin’ mind! How the hell do you figure that? Obama won a clear majority of the votes. Republicans got their asses handed to them again in Congress. Republicans barely held on to a filibuster proof minority! Oh – I get it – you’ve been hittin’ that sauce a bit too hard since the election ended. You need to sober your ass up and join us in the real world!
Okay – now that we’ve gotten that out of the way. Here’s why I am saying that – I came across two really good posts at some lefty blogs today: (well this appears to be a lefty blog – can’t quite figure this guy out) – Fearless History – On Conservatism and the other post comes from Left of Center – Dissention in the ranks?
Fearless History goes on to point out the differences between classical conservatism versus the neoconservative. I would have to agree with his assessment – in doing so – this puts me staunchly and squarely in the classical conservative category.
Left of Center discusses the possible fracture of the Republican party as a result of this past election. He pits the GOP against the Conservative base. He posits that the GOP will be forever fractured and a new third party of conservatives will emerge as a result. Based on Fearless’ definition of classical conservative and neoconservative – those that Left of Center believes will emerge as a third party would be those neoconservatives.
Go ahead – check out those two posts – then come back over here and see how these posts brought me to the conclusion that conservatives actually won this election.

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!
Miscellaneous
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.
TheMoneyHawk presents Reality Check: The President Can’t Save Us, Nor Should He posted at The Money Hawk, saying, “Everyone in the country needs to read this article, period.”
Ahh, yes! A financial blogger after my own heart! I’m a firm believer in personal responsibility! Most excellent post – a good read for everyone!
Madeleine Begun Kane presents Celebratory Limerick posted at Mad Kane’s Political Madness.
We’ll see! This freakin’ two year election cycle put a world of hurt on this country!
News
Sam Douglas presents Mandatory Internet Censorship and our Right to Choose posted at Philosophy Hurts Your Head.
You know, I read about this and heard about this on the news. I sure as hell hope they don’t try to pull this kinda shit here in the U.S. I feel bad for you Aussies. You’d think your government was being led by the Chinese or something!
Hortois presents Pumpkin for President posted at The Compost Heap, saying, “light hearted”
Um – okay – we’ll let it slide by THIS time! If it weren’t for that little pun at the end there – I probably would have nixed this one. And..considering Thanksgiving is up next here in the U.S. – and – I just LOVE pumpkin pi 
– these are good tips for pumpkin growers and gardners.
Ron McKie presents Hide the children posted at Phuck Politics.
OMG! Too funny – and yet – at the same time – so sad! Is this the next generation to lead our country! Lord help us.
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!
John Kaduk presents Russia Starts Taking Advantage Of Obama posted at The Right Wing.
THIS must be what Biden was talking about! We’ll see, John! I see the cold war starting all over again under an Obama Presidency. I’m sure his weak ass will back off. After all, he’d rather TALK – which won’t mean shit to Putin!
Ron McKie presents Fuck this day posted at Phuck Politics.
Had a bad day did we Ron? I wish I had done as you and watched some movies instead of torturing myself through the evening watching all of that. My sentiments exactly!
Politics
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.”
I‘ve seen some of these before – others are new! Good one!
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.

YES! Finally – I can watch TV again without seeing all those damned political ads. I don’t have to worry about having a pile an inch high of political flyers in my mailbox every day. I will no longer have to turn my phone off because of the stupid political phone calls. <sigh of relief>
As regards to my thoughts regarding the election – I feel heavily betrayed by my country and my state. The 52% of Americans who voted for that socialist did so because they were uninformed by a media that failed to live up to the 1st Amendment and the charter we the people entrusted them with. The media was formed to be the watchdog on Government and to report the truth to the people. Instead – they are complicit in a mass fraud perpetrated on this great nation. Journalism – as our forefathers intended – is dead.
I don’t need to go into it any further how I feel Obama. We know he is a fraud and he is very dangerous for this country. I guess what I don’t understand is how the democrat lead Congress with a favorable rating of 9% was able to add more seats. Thank God they don’t have a filibuster-proof majority as I believe that is the only barrier at this point that will keep Obama and the far left-wing Democrats from getting every socialist law passed in this country.
I just want to assure my readers that I will remain steadfast in doing my job here to keep everyone informed regarding the misdeeds that will surely be coming out of Congress and that socialist that has been elected by a misinformed public. The media did a great job of covering up Obama’s history and was very effective in aiding the Obama campaign by painting the truth from the McCain camp as a smear campaign. Since when has the truth become an attack? Since when did the truth not matter in this country?
I fear we have just entered in to a VERY dangerous era for this country and this world. The only chance we have now is for the Republican party to go back to their conservative roots and do what is right for this country. The Republican members of congress will need to be forthright with the people of this country and keep us informed of the left-leaning Democrats and their attempts to ramrod their socialist agenda down our throats.
Hopefully, with a Democrat congress and a Democrat President – the people will now see who the real problem is in D.C. – it was not the policies of the Republicans that got us in this mess – it was the liberal social polices of the Dems. I will be here – unless Obama decides to stifle free speech on the Internet as he did in the media – but – I will endeavor to continue to speak out about those loony liberals and their socialist messiah.
Welcome to the U.S.S.A. – and many thanks to the 52% of morons out there that refused to listen. You reap what you sow – and you deserve everything that comes to you. Hopefully, you will wake up between now and 2010 and see just how wrong you were and just how uninformed you were because you CHOSE to keep your head buried in the sand. Well, maybe moron is too strong a word since it’s not entirely your fault – after all – you believed the lies from Obama – and you failed to do your own homework and listened to the biased media. But, being the conservative that I am and believing in personal responsibility – you failed yourselves as well by not being responsible voters and informing yourselves. You all are now accountable for your in-action.
Sure, this might be a historic moment in this country because a black man was elected – but – this was the WRONG black man. I would gladly have voted for Condi – maybe even Powell – but – not this socialist. Yes, America – Socialism is a bad word.

With all the crap that is going on right now with the Black Panthers blocking access to voting booths, Virginia not allowing the Military absentee votes, Republican poll watchers getting thrown out of voting locations, and Schmucky Schumer already talking about bringing back The Fairness Doctrine (well before this election has been decided) – I thought a little humor would be needed right now.
I can’t really take credit for this – You’re gonna have to go to Angel’s place to check this out – pretty funny stuff!
and then…This poem was sent to me by e-mail – author unknown – pretty good one!
‘Twas the night before elections
And all through the town
Tempers were flaring
Emotions all up and down!
I, in my bathrobe
With a cat in my lap
Had cut off the TV
Tired of political crap.
When all of a sudden
There arose such a noise
I peered out of my window
Saw Obama and his boys
They had come for my wallet
They wanted my pay
To give to the others
Who had not worked a day!
He snatched up my money
And quick as a wink
Jumped back on his bandwagon
As I gagged from the stink
He then rallied his henchmen
Who were pulling his cart
I could tell they were out
To tear my country apart!
On Fannie, on Freddie,
On Biden and Ayers!
On Acorn, On Pelosi’
He screamed at the pairs!
They took off for his cause
And as he flew out of sight
I heard him laugh at the nation
Who wouldn’t stand up and fight!
So I leave you to think
On this one final note-
IF YOU DONT WANT SOCIALISM
GET OUT AND VOTE!!!!
AND – REMEMBER – DON’T WATCH THE POLL NUMBERS! The media just wants to deflate you and suppress your vote if you are a McCain supporter. Get out there and vote! There is no way they can call the election for anybody so early! This is a VERY tight race! If it wasn’t – do you REALLY think Obama would still be campaigning today?

Okay – one last effort to educate the masses here – There was a helluva lot more dirt that came out this weekend regarding The Obamessiah – so – in case you didn’t hear any of it – I’m just going to direct you to those stories – and I got other stuff for those 8% who remain undecided!
First up – You know I don’t generally subscribe to conspiracy theories – however – there have been some real solid arguments regarding Obama’s citizenship and whether or not he is qualified to serve as President according to our constitution – Reference previous post here and here.
Phil Berg filed a lawsuit challenging Obama’s citizenship. It was tossed out 10/27/08 by Judge Surrick in PA saying Berg did not have standing and subsequently appealed to the Supreme Court – well – guess what – there has been a new lawsuit filed – and there is no way you can say these guys don’t have standing – A Vice Presidential Candidate and 24 Electoral College Electors. Read that here.
If that isn’t enough – Obama has promised to bankrupt the coal industry. Is he really trying to sabotage his chances in PA, VA, WV, and OH? Actually, this is a tape that the SF Chronicle has been holding on to since January. Kinda makes you wonder why this wasn’t released during the primaries! Watch and listen closely – even if you are not a union worker or have anything to do with the coal industry – the fact is that 49% of our energy in the U.S. comes from coal – he promises that under his plan – our electric bills will “skyrocket.”
h/t to Vulcan Hammer for alerting us to this over at Shaving Leviathan – Obama Contra Coal, Contra Industrial Power – probably one of the best commentaries with pretty little pictures and graphs that you will find out there regarding Obama’s disdain for both coal and nuclear power.
Next up – Our great friend to the south – Hugo Chavez – has come out and endorsed “the black man” in the white house. Chavez is the one who openly called Bush the Great Satan while speaking at the U.N. and then derided our country.
This made the rounds in Miami – but – for whatever reason never really circulated through the rest of the country. Apparently, Castro aided many of Ayers’ Weather Underground “friends” that were on the lam. In fact – it has been reported by UniVision that there is a very recent connection between Obama, Castro, and FARC (the pro-communist terrorists in Columbia).
And – finally – if you haven’t seen the video yet – there are people out there that really believe that Obama is going to pay for their gas and mortgages.
If you think my take has been partisan here – WHICH OF COURSE IT HAS BEEN – here is a very non-partisan voting guide for you to use and figure it out for yourself. 20 issues, side-by-side and the positions each candidate has – you decide which one you are closer to.
NOW – Get out there tomorrow and VOTE! If you’re pro-McCain – don’t let the early polls worry you – don’t let them discourage you from getting out there and casting your vote. Every vote counts this time around! Remember – in 2004 they called the election for Kerry in the early afternoon based on exit polls. The polls can be wrong and have been proven consistently to be wrong. The media machine will keep drilling it all day long that Obama is on his way to a blow-out. That is the furthest thing from the truth. This race is so close it could be a repeat of 2000 in which a difference of only 527 votes gave the presidency to Bush.
So – don’t listen to the pollsters – go with your own guts and VOTE!

Holy cow! I don’t know what to say! Thanks to all of you who submitted to the carnival. Without you guys – this carnival would not be the success that it is. There were 20 submissions this week. All of them excellent – and – yes – I do actually go read them all before I allow them to be published.
That way – not only do I make sure I keep this carnival spam-free, but, I also get to learn more about those bloggers who are submitting – plus I feel I’ve learned a bit more after having read the submissions. I usually will comment here on what I’ve read over there – but – given the total number of submissions that are here – as much as I would love to comment on ALL of them – I would be up forever and probably miss deadline.
In any case – be rest assured – I have reviewed all of these submissions. There are some I would really love to provide commentary on here – but – that just wouldn’t be FAIR to the others that I don’t comment on. Oh, Crap! I think I sounded like “That One” for a moment – I probably shouldn’t be reading those liberal blogs as much as I do! LOL. Please do go check these all out. They are all excellent – some you will agree with – others I guarantee you won’t – and since this is a mish mosh of submissions – whether you are liberal, conservative, or libertarian – what I said above still stands true!
