Obama and His ACORNs - What Tangled Webs Are Woven

~Snooper~

In more or less breaking news, Winged Hussar 1683 posting at Grizzly Groundswell brings us news of defections from the Obama Campaign over his lack of renouncing the ACORN voter fraud scandals breaking out all over the Nation. The Google cached comments are all listed in this post and the Obama web site is being monitored for the comment deletions that are soon to come. I am sure The One cannot afford for folks to see that his implosion will continue over the ACORN debacle.

I wonder where the pollsters are. LOL! Be sure to visit there to read the comments. I would place them here but I was having a difficult time trying to decide which ones.

There can be or, there should be no doubt that Barack's fingerprints are indeed all over ACORN. He has denied it but we all know that he, at one time, was a trainer for the ACORN activists.

Obama lied about ACORN. He lied about Ayers. He lied about Rev. Wright. How can you believe what he says about taxes, education or health care?

The only folks that can actually trust Obama are the easily duped and the emotional childlike people that cannot discern that which is evil in this world. And, Barack is an evil man. Like most other Democrat Party political aspirants, it doesn't matter what they have to do or say to get into political positions of power. Power is all they are after. Obama has lied his way to where he is today, period. End of discussion.

Suitably Flip linked to a story I saw earlier at Ace's place. First, SF:

[...] The avian metaphor Ace prefers is that of the black swan, but that's inappropriate for two reasons. 1) It wasn't all that hard to predict that Obama's web of seediness was interconnected and 2) it's patently racist to use the word "black" while deigning to criticize a post-racial candidate who happens to be half black. [END]

Ace has a news tip of credible origin and we should all be hearing about it either Sunday or Monday. It has something to do with ACORN...go figure.

The tip is solid, not one of those internetish ones I occasionally peddle when I'm high on modeling glue... and hatred.

10,000 duplicate/fraudulent registrations in Hamilton County (Cincinnati) and around 8000 bad registrations in Cuyahoga County (Cleveland). Cincinnati story should be out tomorrow, Cleveland one Sunday or Monday.

Ironically, ACORN may prove out Marx's aphorism that the system contains the seeds of its own destruction. [...]

This might just be that Magic Bullet. At some point, the old dinosaur media will no longer be able to shield Obama's hoodlum activities from the American People. Until then, we in the Main Street Media will continue to hammer away.

I have known for quite some time that the DNC is crooked. We all know that the DNC runs the Party of Corruption and as the Vatican calls them - the Party of Death. That said, I ran across an interesting rumor at the Confederate Yankee that has been neither denied or confirmed by those that are theoretically involved. He links to two pro-Hillary posts located here and here. Bob wrote to Randall Samborn, Assistant US Attorney and Public Information Officer for the U.S. Attorney's Office, Northern District of Illinois and received the following reply:

"We do not confirm or deny the existence of any investigation - therfore, we decline comment and I am unable to answer any of your questions."

That's poli-speak for, "How in the hell did you find out about this!?" Anyway, here is the rumor.

[...] If everything rumored here is true, it looks like David Axelrod, Howard Dean, Donna Brazile, SoetorObama himself, and possibly even Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid were all involved, together, in massive RICO violations, and thus federal fraud, if the DNC and party leadership knew what the SoetorObama campaign and ACORN were up to and allowed it to proceed. Knowledge of federal crimes being committed makes all parties accessories to those crimes — and part of the conspiracy to defraud the public. [...]

That is a BIG if folks so don't get all fired up just yet. And, by the way, I have no idea what "SoeterObama" is. Theoretically, there is a missing article, missing no more, unearthed from someplace proving beyond a shadow of a doubt, Obama's associations with ACORN. The link is located at Memeorandum so have some fun and go read it and then show all your idiot friends and relatives that are voting for the fraud.

Gateway Pundit and Riehl World View have more information to the Obama-ACORN quagmire. Obama keeps getting dirtier and dirtier. Must have something to do with the Chicago political climate he latched onto. FYI, Barack was an attorney for ACORN and was instrumental in getting folks home loans that had no capacity to pay...sound familiar? I wonder if he will deny that ACORN helped him win his 2006 election. Seeing that he is a liar, I wouldn't put it passed him.

And I will ask the following: what program, policy or legislation of note that has had a positive influence on our Nation that the SoH Pelosi or Senate Leader Reid has accomplished in their two years of service? Someone please name me one. Just one. That is all I ask. I have been searching and I have not detected any. And they dare criticize others within and without or Nation? Please. Stop insulting our intelligence.

That sound you heard today was the Death Knell of American Socialism.

War News: Vets On The Hill 4/8/08 PART 1

~Snooper~

VETS ON THE HILL PART 1

Yesterday on 08 APR 08, a group of men and women - Patriots - both currently serving in the United States Armed Services and those of service past, gathered in a Ballroom at the Sheraton Hotel in Arlington, VA. The Gathering began - per orders - at 0500 hours and, all be known and told, Uncle Jimbo from Blackfive was there, having the evening before swore to be present and accounted for "later on that morning".

The intensity of the concentration to the mission at hand was truly a marvel to behold. Mission parameters were established and anti-flanking controls were set into place. As only Warriors could possibly understand, sloganeering was bantered about and there was in evidence, inter-service rivalries - SOP. Yet, in the midst of it all, the camaraderie was exquisitely prevalent and Mission Jitters were dealt with accordingly. The apprehensions came and went as they always do with the Old Salts - The Leatherskinned - soothed the atmosphere of Giterdun.

This all took place within the first 30 minutes or so - coffee was to be had - then, the Speakers arrived and messed it all up - damn Officers. NOTE: to the folks in Arlington and the surrounding areas that organize such events as this...a few Danish and some mystery buns, accompanied by neatly aligned plates of butterballs - aligned as if laid out in the fashion of bowling pins - does not constitute a definition of "breakfast". (I had to get the only grievance out of the way - again, SOP.)

Pete Hegseth and Company laid out the Ground Rules and the MO of assaulting The Hill and the plethora of foolish debutantes that occupy the Peoples' Congress. As an Armed Service Member once wrote home - I AM THE DAMN WAR - so was our Battle Cry this day. This day was about us; us meaning all those still serving and those that have served.

The Mantra of the day and shall always be - LET US WIN!

The tide has turned and we are winning, that much is obvious...even to the foolish little debutantes on The Hill. Why else would "they" not see their constituents? We'll get to that later.

I met many men on this day and spent quality time with several. We all began arriving on Monday the 7th and after experiencing the oddest mannerisms by the Hotel Staff assigning rooms - and airliners actually delivering baggage - we all migrated to various locales within the Hotel and began The Plotting and, invariably, there was the bar. Many Mission Statements come from such "maintenance meetings" - Vets For Freedom being one of them; ask Sen Lindsey Graham - and after watching the 4-Month Wonder Motor Pool Fraud Jonny Soltz and Chris Matthews of Spit Ball get a royal thrashing by Pete Hegseth, the Final Outcome of this Gathering was set in stone. Anything shy of total Victory is defeat.

The Morning Debrief was accomplished, apprehensions were set aside and many a man donned the Mission Face - as a Warrior only knows. We boarded the buses and headed to The Hill. As I sat in that cushy seat, I drifted back to days gone by of many insertions, less the cushy seat - will this be the one? - the one what? - will I be at my best? - my best what? - will I be able to perform as my country expects to and will my comrades accept my actions? - many a man talked amongst themselves as we made our way to Indian Country; that is what The Hill is, by the way.

We arrived at Union Station and egressed transportation, making our Way to Senate Park to take part in the Press Conference. It was cold and drizzly - again, SOP. Figures. The Press Corps was setting up their final machinations and had their plastic eco-harming bags protecting their cameras and we all wondered at what point they would vanish. It didn't take long.

Pete Hegseth said a few things and introduced each Speaker in an order that someone developed and one by one, each added to the crescendos of nearly 500 OORAHs and HOOAHs...for 30 minutes...too much for pansy reporters because after the first few microseconds of Senator John McCain speaking, they, the Press Corps, vanished back into their spider holes. Amazing but, again, SOP.

Pete Hegseth
David Bellavia
Sen McCain
Sen Lieberman
Sen Graham
Sen Inhofe
Sen Bond
Rep Marshall
Rep Sam Johnson
Marcus Luttrell
Steve Russell

There were at least three others and one added that I know I have forgotten and I am sure someone will remind me. You can hear them all right here because we, A Newt One, New Media, broadcast to the world via internet the THE Real News of our time...PERIOD. Bar none.

The Arizona Vets For Freedom stood on the stage with their Senator and soon to be President Elect, John McCain. Get used to it. It is already a done deal. The Nation has yet won another hard-fought Victory on The Hill today. As the After Action Reports came streaming in, it was revealed that exactly 2.5 anti-Americanists stood in our way, only to be brushed aside as the slag which they are. I say 2.5 anti-Americanists for the following reasons: one was a bright blue-eyed and glossed over in the eyes lost soul wearing a sign for the pinkies and when looking into the eyes of this pathetic member of the universe, there was no one at home; another was a sad one on a mission to locate Admiral Fallon at Union Station because "they have him locked up at Guantanimo Bay"...why this one was looking for him at Union Station still has the Intel Guys wondering; the last .5 anti-Americanist is classified as ".5" because she just might not be one but the question asked "are you guys protesting?" was asked in a hopeful way...perhaps not.

During the testimonies of General Petraeus and Ambassador Crocker, we watched as another anti-Americanist was hauled off and dealt with accordingly. I still feel - personally and not speaking for the other members of A Newt One - the Sergeant of Arms failed to rid the Senate of the remaining anti-Americanists, Hillary RODHAM Clinton and Barack HUSSEIN Obama. But, that is another and separate post soon forthcoming.

During the course of the day, I was privileged and honored to accompany, by invitation, LTC William Russell which is running against John "Jerk-Off" Murtha, 3 Haditha Marines, several other veterans and a veteran's wife, to visit one John "Jack-Leg" Murtha. I have ZERO respect for this.......man.......for the lack of a better term, of the very much dishonorable Representative Murtha (D-PA). You all know the story and what has come of this self-induced for political gain quagmire wrought upon his nation by this dishonorable thug. Alas, I digress.

Rep Murtha not only would NOT see us or his constituents or his challenger but, he had his people - primarily Broom Hilda - lie to us several times as for the reasons to NOT see at least his constituents. Yet, his little tinker-toy Aides kept coming out of the closed door to see what was happeing and returning to the spider hole with the closed door. Also, while there, in front of us all, soon to be Representative Elect LTC William Russell - hopefully - issued a challenge for a debate in Pennsylvania to Rep Murtha. We shall see what comes of this. Murtha has no honor and is indeed a coward. He will NOT face the men he besmirched and we will NOT forget nor shall we allow him to sweep this shameful act under his Pork Spending blankets.

One other story of a cut and run type is Barack HUSSEIN Obama. "Someone" went to see him and Barack closed his door in this man's face, as it were. No visits and the door clanged shut...literally. Shameful.

Towards the end of the day, Cyber Pastor and myself had lunch with LTC William Russell after his 60 second bit with Fox News and we were pleased that the encounter with "murtha" was publicized. I wish I lived in PA...well, not really but I sure would vote for LTC Russell if I did.

This observation was made by many but I heard it first from Cyber Pastor and it echoed on during the day...those that would not see "us" have lost and they cannot face the music. They know they were and are wrong still. We know that they were and are wrong still. And, they know that we know all about them and they cannot - will not - face "us". They cannot admit to errors in judgment. They cannot escape their willful suspension of disbelief because they see their tenure in Congress ebbing and slipping into the Great Abyss of Obscurity.

Cyber Pastor and I had back to back BTR shows on Monday evening and among the guests were Uncle Jimbo of Blackfive...awesome show that. Tuesday morning, Robert hosted a show for the live broadcast of the Press Conference. Last night, Cyber Pastor had his show but I did not because BTR had yet another melt-down. Please stay tuned for more of this event coming in future posts. I will be traveling back to Dallas in the afternoon of the 9th, my 53rd birthday.

Until then, good night and God Bless.

And, what is the cost of Freedom, anyway? Catch the wave at Memeorandum...

Paul Abrams Is A Class Act Moron

~Snooper~

Not only is Paulie a moron, he is a disingenuous bloviating fool.

In his ill-conceived and retarded rhetoric posted at the Leftinistra hang-out called the Huff and Puff, his grip on reality is not only questionable, it is out-right lost in space. This clown and other doltish cads that subscribe to the same lame train of feigned intelligence, have no clue what this war against terror is all about...not a damn clue.

To George W Bush, the loss of nearly 4000 lives, 30,000 wounded and $500B on the Iraq War is "worth it". But, there is no evidence his family, Republican members of Congress or any member of his Administration agrees---unless, of course, they mean it is "worth it" for others to be doing the fighting, the dying, and the multiple tours-of-duty. [...]

So, let's get this straight...had the above alluded to went to war, all would be OK. Right? Wrong. It doesn't matter to these retarded left-wing sycophants of the One World Socialist Soros. No matter what happens or what doesn't happen, nothing satisfies these chronic malcontents and selfish whiners of the hate-filled socialists in this country.

This dumbass has no idea that the vast majority - the frauds of Winter Soldier II not withstanding - volunteered in a time of war to fight the enemy over there so Paul Abrams and his whining dweebs can stab them in the back at every turn. Simply pathetic.

[...] Pat Tillman left his lucrative and high-profile career in the NFL to volunteer for Afghanistan. Yet, not a single Republican member of Congress of military age has thought the Iraq war "worth it" enough to resign and volunteer for his country. Adam Putnam (R-FLA), for example, votes to send his generation to war, but will not volunteer himself. [...]

So, I suppose that Paulie Baby is under the delusion that in order to think the war is worth it, one has to serve. Such an idiot. Does he not think things through before he makes such a raging ass of himself? Hey, Paulie? We all have a job to do in this war because it is America's war, you blithering fool.

[...] Many members of the Bush Administration are under 40. None have volunteered. [...]

Idiot. How many have ALREADY served you silly boy? While we are at it, how many Democrats that bought off on the war that haven't "signed up for duty"? Idiot. Do the Democrats get a free pass for whatever test you have initiated? Idiot.

[...] Neither of the Bush daughters, nor Jenna's fiance, nor military age Bush nephews or nieces appear to think the war is "worth it" enough to volunteer. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates has two military-age sons. Neither has volunteered despite their dad's sending troops on second and third and fourth extended tours-of-duty. Does Secretary Gates think it is "worth it"? His sons apparently do not. [...]

BDS personified. What a childish and immature dweeb this Paulie is. Most are called to service and they answer the call - something this Paultard will never understand.

[...] Everyone knows the Iraq War would never have been launched if the military age Republican members of Congress would have been expected to resign and volunteer, or that members of their families and the Bush family would have been expected to go. Both of Lyndon Johnson's sons-in-law volunteered for Vietnam. [...]

More ignorance from a leftist hack and complete blithering idiot. Substantiation for this "charge"? Idiot.

[...] To all Americans arguing about the cherry-picked intelligence or lies used to get us into this war, you should stop your bickering. Bush would have invaded anyhow. Even without WMD, even without the link to al-Qaeda, he would have invaded. How do we know? He keeps telling us. Knowing what he knows now, he would have done the same (and would he lie?). [...]

Perhaps, Paulie, you should check your facts before you sound so incredibly retarded. I know it will hurt, Paulie, but, do try to keep up. Oh. Wait. Substantiation for the above? We'll wait.

Well, that is enough of that retard's verbiage. Perhaps this blithering dunce should find out how many members of Congress ARE serving and to what degree, both R and D. I know the answer and it wasn't hard to find out a while back, either. I also know which sons and or daughters of Congress Critters are also serving.

Paulie? You are a foolish leftist hack.

BREAKING: Another Recruiting Station Vandalized

~Snooper~

Fox News is reporting that a recruiting station in Wisconsin has been vandalized. Add this one to the list, Michelle!

Vandals scrawled an anti-war message on a Milwaukee Army Recruiting Station Wednesday, the day marking five years since the Iraq war began, WTMJ radio reported.

All the windows of the station were busted out, and graffiti that read "War is Offensive" was scrawled on the side of the building. A witness told WTMJ that he saw anti-war slogans written on the windows before they were broken.

The recruiting station is no stranger to such vandalism. Exactly one year ago, police arrested 21 people who reportedly attacked the facility with smoke bombs while throwing paint, WTMJ reported.

Dissecting An Editorial Moonbat

~Snooper~

The Dallas Morning News has been rampantly infected with idiots. This entire editorial piece is going to be shred beyond recognition here...this idiot needs to move to Austin where its fellow moonbats would welcome it with open cisterns of lunacy...

Editorial: Iraq's ongoing shock and awe/Iraqis' lives still dictated by fear, violence

12:00 AM CDT on Wednesday, March 19, 2008

Ever since the bombs started falling five years ago today, the Iraq war has been the focus of worldwide controversy. Nevertheless, it was hard to deny the sense of promise at the war's outset, when it appeared that Iraqis would finally be free of a ruthless dictatorship. [...]

Dear dingo...nice try at the spin ordeal but see if Billy Clinton can get you some of those used cigars from what's-her-face...

Hard to deny? What was so hard about it? Ruthless dictatorship? Was that The Reason for the war? Sometimes I have to be very concerned about some of my fellow Texicans.

[...] That sense of promise quickly got buried under a mountain of flubs and missteps: the unobstructed looting, the Iraqi army's dissolution, "Mission Accomplished," our slow response to the insurgency, Abu Ghraib, de-Baathification. Subsequent investigations, including one from the Pentagon last week, debunked all notions about weapons of mass destruction and a link between al-Qaeda and Saddam Hussein's regime. [...]

ARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRG!! What moronic drivel!!

Mountain of flubs and missteps? Be specific you asswipe! Were there mistakes? Yes there were. And those mistakes were made by whom? I know the answers you idiot so please be specific. That way, your stupidity won't be so obvious. The poor thing mentions 6 items and that somehow equates to "mountains" of errors. Damn libtard.

And I just LOVE how the media takes that Pentagon report and cherry picks data from it. Maybe this turkey should like ACTUALLY read the damn report? Is that too much to ask of these politically agenda driven libtard dweebs? Better yet, perhaps Ray Robison's book Both In One Trench would suffice? Ray was on the ISG team and was also translating documents and such. I have read both...the book by Ray, three times and this Pentagon report twice...

This report is a redacted version of the original Iraqi Perspectives Report-Saddam and
Terrorism: Emerging Insights from Captured Iraqi Documents, Volume 1, dated January
2007.
This report is a redacted version of the original Iraqi Perspectives Report-Saddam and Terrorism: Emerging Insights from Captured Iraqi Documents, Volume 1, dated January 2007.

This redacted version was prepared by the original authors following a classification review by the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) pursuant to a request by the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and the Undersecretary of Defense for Policy.

All redactions from the original are in accordance with the 15 September 2007 DIA Memorandum, Subject: Classification Review of Iraqi Perspectives Project (IPP) Report Saddam and Terrorism. As stated in said memorandum, the DIA "made every effort to balance national security concerns, requirements of law, and the needs of an informed democracy and focused the redactions to the necessary minimum." Moreover, all redactions have been made pursuant to Executive Orders 12958 (as amended) and 12333, and US Code provisions 5 USC 552, 5 USC 552a, and 10 USC 424.

And, the "Mission Accomplished" thing? The all so obvious ignorance of this particular editorial rapist of verbiage is nearly too much to stomach. Perhaps the poor slog should spend some more time amongst some Navy types to see what the term "Mission Accomplished" means for deployed vessels. Damn libtards.

[...] But we gain nothing by rehashing yesterday's problems. The facts on the ground today are what matter, and those facts comprise a muddled picture suggesting neither victory nor defeat. Iraqis are rid of one dictator, but their daily lives still are dictated by fear of terrorist bombings, kidnappings, sectarian violence, joblessness and uncertainty. [...]

If we gain nothing by rehashing yesterday's problems, then why bring them up in the first place...hm? A muddled picture of what? Neither victory or defeat? Like a stalemate? This goon is a pathetically enabled emotional twit. I bet it drives a "green car" or rides a bike to work.

It never ceases to amaze me that these types never take into consideration that the reason(s) this war has taken so long is due directly to the political aspirations of the ones that bought off on this war from the beginning and then changed their minds when election season came around. I wonder how many women and men in uniform they got killed, wounded or maimed. I wonder how many Iraqi men, women and children that they had a direct cause of their death. I wonder what they say to the demons when they come calling at night. I wonder how many died when they lied.

The war has been prolonged by American politicians sticking their noses into areas in which they have no business being. The successes have come because General Petraeus released the ROE and that is the bottom line. The Commanders before General Petraeus were Clinton Era Throwbacks, plain and simple. As proof of that, how many went to the Leftinistra when they were released from duty? I know the answer...do you?

[...] Just Monday, a report by the International Committee of the Red Cross warned that Iraq faces a humanitarian crisis, with millions lacking adequate clean water, sanitation and health care. "Five years after the outbreak of the war in Iraq, the humanitarian situation in most of the country remains among the most critical in the world," the 15-page report says. [...]

An emotional dufus rambles. Hello? There is a war on and your kind only prolong it. The Red Cross? Please. We all know who ands what runs that group, don't we? Wow! 15 pages of crap!

[...] It's hard to argue that the lives of Iraqis are better. [...]

Not if you are an Iraqi that used to live in fear of the rape rooms, the prisons of no return and the infamous shredders. Damn libtard moron.

[...] While the U.S. troop surge has brought levels of violence and casualties down, life in Baghdad and other major cities is fraught with danger. Iraq remains among the most violent countries in the world, as underscored by the explosions that punctuated a Monday visit by Vice President Dick Cheney. [...]

Yes. There is a war on. Now, STFU and STFD. Thank you.

[...] Millions of Iraqis have been displaced by the war. A massive population migration has split the country along sectarian lines. Families who fled may never be able to return to their homes. [...]

And the point is what, exactly? Have the homes they can never return to gone? The country has ALWAYS been split among sectarian lines! Where has this idiot been hiding?

[...] So how do we assess the war's progress after five years? In Iraq on Monday, Mr. Cheney termed it "a difficult, challenging but nonetheless successful endeavor" and "well worth the effort."

Others, such as Michael O'Hanlon of the Brookings Institution, have devised lists of benchmarks by which to objectively judge progress. Mr. O'Hanlon's list indicates we've advanced in only five of 11 key areas. On the benchmark list devised by the Iraqi government and endorsed by the White House last year, only three out of 18 goals have been met. [...]

Oh good grief. Again with the politically driven bench mark crap again. Good Lord! Get over yourself little one. The Iraqi government has made advances LEAP YEARS ahead when compared to the self-vaunted American government over the last few years. Idiot. How many of our own CONgress Critters have been threatened with death via kidnappings, assassinations, car-bombs and other means of death and destruction? And yet, the Iraqi government recently passed SEVERAL of the much adored "bench marks"? Moron libtards. I swear!

[...] Transparency International rates Iraq the third-most corrupt country on the planet. As security improves, thousands of displaced Iraqis will try to return home, only to find that they will have no place to live and no jobs because a third of Iraqis are unemployed. Even though oil production is slightly up from 2004 levels, households still are receiving only 64 percent of the energy they need. [...]

Yes. There is a war going on and at the moment, that 64% is well over TWICE what it was BEFORE the war. Please enter ALL the facts you libtard asswipe. Thank you.

[...] Mr. Cheney has made wrong calls before on Iraq, and while we acknowledge progress on several fronts, it would be deceptive to label this war "successful." [...]

Another vague comment made by an uneducated parrot of stupidity. Name one instance, please...dumbass libtard.

[...] We're glad Saddam Hussein and his murderous regime are gone. But the international trust and cooperation that the White House squandered to accomplish that goal will take years to rebuild. [...]

Just what in the hell are you yammering about? The international trust? The international what? Who gives a rat's ass about the international anything? Our country was attacked by terrorists and those nations that harbored terrorists. International trust my ass. Which international countries "fought us" and which ones of those that "fought us" were disclosed as being involved with Oil For Food? Talk about that one for a while you stupid leftwing idiot.

[...] Five years on, regrettably, we have our shock and awe. Shock that the Iraq invasion fell so woefully short of improving Iraqis' lives. Awe in the failure of the Bush administration to address mistakes sooner.

WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!! (hic hic) WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!

Let me see if I have this correct. The editorial says in the second paragraph, "But we gain nothing by rehashing yesterday's problems.", so we suffer through a zillion wasted words gushing from an idiot that does nothing but rehash "yesterday's problems". The whole article is nothing but moonbat rhetoric. I hope the pathetic cretin gets this shredding piece.

It Is A Great Loss of KFSO And San Fransisco

~Snooper~

We have all received word from Melanie Morgan via email that she will no longer be broadcasting from San Fransico's KFSO.

In releases by Melanie Morgan: I just lost my job -- but I didn't lose a child... and MY LAST DAY AT KSFO RADIO

Dear Move America Forward Family,

I am writing this note to give you the news that you will no longer be hearing me on KSFO radio as part of the long running "Lee Rodgers and Melanie Morgan Show". Since we've worked together in the pro-troop movement, I wanted to make sure you were told firsthand before the news hit elsewhere.

Citadel Broadcasting, which recently acquired the ABC Radio Group - including KSFO radio, is undergoing some major financial problems, and is involved in a company-wide cost-cutting campaign. Sadly, the decision not to renew my contract is part of their cost-cutting effort. Monday, March 3, 2008, marked my last day on the airwaves at KSFO.

It has been my honor to speak to so many of you every morning for the past 14 years on KSFO as we built a conservative movement to take on radical liberals and their attacks on our brave men and women who serve this country in the U.S. military.

I want you to know something very important, and please pay close to attention to this: our very important work supporting our troops is not done, and don't think for a minute that I will give up the work we do here at Move America Forward. We've only just begun, folks!

I've never been paid a single penny in compensation for my work with Move America Forward. I do this work for free because I believe so passionately in our men and women who put on the uniform of the U.S. military and serve with honor, integrity and distinction.

campaign against our troops.

Having seen our troops in the Middle East in action several times now (going all the way back to the Beirut Marine Barracks bombing in 1983 and most recently this past Christmas with our troops fighting in the war on terror), I have been deeply touched by the dedication these fine young men and women have in fighting radical Islamic jihadism.

Our troops are literally saving our children's future, and we cannot back down in our efforts in the pro-troop movement - not even for a day.

While I will miss my morning show on KSFO and my ongoing dialogue with loyal listeners, I now will have extra time and energy to support our troops. That's good news for our troops and bad news for those insult them and attempt to undermine their missions.

You can help me continue to make an impact in this regard by making a contribution to Move America Forward.

I'm not done fighting to make a difference in this world, and I will be honored to fight by your side in honor of our military men and women who fight to preserve our liberties and protect our lives.

Melanie Morgan, Chairman, Move America Forward

We wish Melanie Morgan well in the future endeavors of broadcast excellence and look forward to seeing her and Move America Forward in March!! EAGLES UP!!

Michelle Malkin comments...

Move America Forward's Melanie Morgan is one of my favorite conservative activists. She's led countless battles against anti-military goons in the San Francisco Bay Area, traveled to Iraq to bring thank you letters to our servicemen and servicewomen on the front lines, and crossed the country to lead rallies in Washington, D.C. countering the Soros mob. [...]

EAGLES UP!!

Riehl World View disappointed:

And the libtards rejoice...

We need MORE and MORE people to speak out like Melanie Morgan.

As an update...

From Michelle Malkin's post previously linked...
I know she'll land on her feet. She's a mover, shaker, and fighter–and a big asset to the conservative movement. Send her your best wishes and encouragement here. [...]

On Columbia, Venezuela, Ecuador and FARC

~Snooper~

Vote it up at Digital Journal and Real Clear Politics.

What is up with the nations upset with the FARC secretariat and 15 or so others killed by Columbian troops? What is FARC? And, for that matter, what are the relationships between FARC, Columbia, Ecuador and Columbia?

(Reference previous posts here, here, and here.)

FARC is the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia. Revolutionary as in the genre of one Che Guevara. They are a Marxist group with close associations with the Sandanistas. You do remember them, don't you? A pro-communist group that has nothing better to do than to fight Freedom...this is why they are called Freedom Fighters, don't you know. FARC has been in close quarter combat with the nation of Columbia and, seeing that the United States and Columbia are allies, it is natural for FARC to seek out allies in their quest to overthrow Columbia.

Growing out of the turmoil and fighting in the 1950s between liberal and conservative militias, the FARC was established in 1964 by the Colombian Communist Party to defend what were then autonomous Communist-controlled rural areas. The FARC is Latin America's oldest, largest, most capable, and best-equipped insurgency of Marxist origin. [...]

FARC makes their money through the production and distribution of narcotics internal of Columbia. They also get support from Cuba and Venezuela.

[...] Cuba provides some medical care and political consultation. A trial is currently underway in Bogota to determine whether three members of the Irish Republican Army - arrested in Colombia in 2001 upon exiting the FARC-controlled demilitarized zone (despeje) - provided advanced explosives training to the FARC. [...]

[...] Rodrigo Granda, a senior FARC member, was reportedly responsible for garnering international support for the FARC. This, in sum, could be described as the source of the current conflict between Colombia and Venezuela. Colombia has often complained about the lack of cooperation from the Chavez government in cracking down on leftist rebels. [...]

[...] Weakened by the corruption sown by cocaine cartels and a decades-long civil war, the Colombian government faces two leftist insurgent groups that not only wage guerrilla warfare but also carry out kidnappings, hijackings, attacks on civilians, and political assassinations. The U.S. State Department includes the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (known by its Spanish acronym, FARC) and the National Liberation Army (ELN) on its list of foreign terrorist organizations. Plan Colombia, the United States' multi-billion dollar initiative to equip the Colombian military to eradicate coca (the plant from which cocaine is made), targets regions controlled by FARC and ELN. [...]

The above is yet a brief synopsis of FARC and their allegiances to illicit drug distribution and known communist groups, nations and organizations. But, does it explain why Ecuador is seemingly following Venezuela's lead of sending troops to their borders with Columbia? Yes, it does.

Columbian officials have released their findings that FARC leaders and associates have alliances with the Venezuelan and Ecuadorian governments and have conspired to aid them in their fight(s) against Columbia. This data has also been reported by the Sydney Morning Herald and is also being discussed by Atlas Shrugs. It is time for the folks that are NOT allied with known communist and socialist groups within our own borders here in the States to wake the hell up. I have been awake for decades and have preached this threat from many a soap-box. And, I will forever refer to The List of 45 until the communist and socialist threats from within are defeated one way or another.

BOGOTA, Colombia - Documents from a computer seized where Colombian commandos killed a senior rebel leader indicate Ecuador's president is deepening relations with Colombia's main guerrilla group, Colombia's police commander said Sunday. [...]

And that ain't all...

Police Commander General Oscar Naranjo said documents found in computers belonging to Reyes showed contacts between a top Correa government minister and the FARC commander to discuss political proposals and projects on the frontier.

"The questions raised by these documents need concrete answers," Commander Naranjo said. "What is the state of relations between the Ecuadorean government and a terrorist group like the FARC."

Colombian President Alvaro Uribe has often accused the FARC of using Venezuelan and Ecuadorean territory as safe havens from military attacks. [...]

And, the plot thickens...

Pajamas Media has a good piece on FARC here.

Like Atlas says:

[...] Chavez is itchin for a fight:

Chavez called Colombian President Alvaro Uribe "a criminal" and branded his government a "terrorist state," likening it to Israel for its U.S.-backed attacks on militants. [END]

It has also been said that these terrorist groups in Central and South America have ties to Al Qaida and I don't doubt it one bit seeing that (T)Hugo has very close ties to Iran.

All American Blogger has good posts up here and here...

The Washington Times has the same conclusions we have...so does Riehl World View...

CNN is reporting three computers were found to have Ecuadorian and Venezuelan ties to FARC...

PJ Media has another piece up...

Colombia's strategic war against the FARC Marxist rebels is finally bearing fruit, and their neighbor Hugo Chavez is furious, writes Fausta Wertz. Livid after FARC's second-in-command's assassination on Saturday, Chavez is threatening war. [...]

More to come, we are sure.

It is becoming more and more apparent that Hugo Chavez is indeed financing FARC

VOTING FOR McCAIN - THE BOTTOM LINE

THIS IS AN EASY DECISION, FOLKS

Petitions Huckabee and Limbaugh and disconnected conservatives are not going to change who the Republican nominee is

Jimmy Z - As I was answering Ben in the comments section, I determined that I had a piece here on its own so I’ve posted it separately. In it, I outline clearly and finally why conservatives really do need to ‘calm down.’

A NO vote on McCain is an affirmative to either Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama, period, end of sentence. This is totally and completely unacceptable.

When you sit out the vote, you get the alternative. I know a lot of you consider Rush Limbaugh to be almost a cartoon version of a political pundit. However, he really is right most of the time, and today he played an amazing tape from his own show.

In 2006, Rush Limbaugh predicted that if the conservatives sat out the election and allowed the democrat take-over of both houses of Congress, John McCain would end up being our party’s nominee for President in 2008. Now we know he was right.

Folks, listen to me and listen good: This ‘sitting out the election’ crap is the one sure way to send this country all the way deep into socialism. If you want to see liberals take over your life in every facet, sit this one out. If you want to find more of your money taken from you in higher taxes and paid to sponges like illegal aliens flooding our land, sit out the election. If you want to stand in line for an MRI, sit it out. If you want to see everyone driving the flimsy little cars liberals want for you, sit out your opportunity to vote.

I'm the original 'bottom line' guy. When it comes down to a choice, and you have no other options, you have to weigh one against the other and pick the best you can. Let’s say you have no toothpaste at home, and you like Crest. You're in the store and it's closing time, and they're out of Crest. They have Colgate and they have Aquafresh. You have to brush your teeth. You pick one and you go to pay for it.

I acknowledge that the choice for President is not as unimportant as choosing a brand of toothpaste, but making the choice really is going to be this simple. Assume for a moment that Hillary does what is expected and wins the democrat nomination.

Now you have a choice: John McCain; imperfect, but appearing genuinely willing to work with steadfast conservatives, or Hillary Clinton.

You’re going to sit this one out? Really?

Ann Coulter says that Hillary Clinton is more conservative than John McCain. Come on! Do any of you really believe this? I love Ann, but I think she’s flipped out completely on this topic.

Conservatives stayed home and gave democrats control of Congress in 2006. It is indisputable that we gave them the House and the Senate; democrats did not win them. I fail to understand the mentality that wants to sit at home and not vote against the liberal democrat!

In my mind and my Reagan-conservative soul, the choice is not even close! Sit at home, or vote for John McCain over Hillary Clinton? People, you truly need to calm the hell down and think this through. McCain is not a liberal democrat. We can’t be as ridiculously short sighted as the democrats were when they jettisoned faithful democrats Zell Miller or Joe Leiberman.

The time has come to rally behind our candidate. We do not have time anymore to listen to the hyperbolic ranting of those of you who want a perfect and pure conservative. Honestly my friends, do you think one really exists?

I encourage you all to let go of stubborn insistence. It is going to come down to McCain vs. Hillary Clinton, and your choice is not between sitting at home and voting for McCain. Your choice is simply whether to vote for McCain or Hillary Clinton.

And if the democrats nominate Barack Obama? Take everything I wrote and multiply it times ten. I’ll see you at your neighborhood poling place.

And that’s the bottom line.
