The American Democrat Party: Culture of Death

~Snooper~

I have been saying this for years and folks just laughed and some just laughed it off. Some said that this too shall pass. To me, those that laughed for whatever reason are still in a state of insanity due to their purposeful neglect.

Recently, J.R. Dunn wrote a column entitled, "Democide". In that piece, in part:

"Over the past fifty years, something on the order of a half-million Americans have been killed by liberal policies."

That line appears to have gotten to people, as it should. Among the many welcome comments on my piece on Christopher Buckley, a number both on AT and elsewhere referred to that statement -- my contention that liberalism is not only a failed ideology, but a deadly one, an ideology that kills, and kills in large numbers. Many of the comments called it "incredible", "unbelievable" and "shocking".

That's in no way difficult to understand. Achieving awareness of the lethal nature of liberalism's excesses is much the same as coming to realize that your friendly, familiar neighborhood is actually overrun by vampires. [...]

Most of you that know me know that I am undertaking a project that proves the above beyond a reasonable doubt. The proponents of American Liberalism, no matter their stature in life and position are directly responsible for not only killing millions dying of Malaria, they have murdered entire generations of "voters"...they died of abortion. They are directly responsible for the deaths and wounding of American and Allied Forces in several wars and Police Actions, Iraq and Afghanistan being in the present tense.

I loathe them all. They disgust me. They cannot be trusted. Their ideologies have been attempted in many Nations and those principles of which they stand resulted in entire populations to be enslaved to the governments under which they lived and live and those governments have failed time and time again. Their system does not work. Period. It never has and it never will. Slavery - that is what the Democrat Party of the USA is all about. A historical search will bear that out, especially before, during and after the American Civil War.

But, that won't stop them. It is all about Power to these people. Nothing else matters. If our Troops are killed, maimed or wounded, they could care less. I have seen it first hand. If they can enslave the American Population, the more Power they will have.

Barack Obama is the Shining Example of the Culture of Death. He supports infanticide, no matter how he tries to spin it. He voted FOR infanticide and that is a matter of public record. He and his Goons can deny it all they want to...facts are facts and the record is the record. SPIN THAT.

The Vatican has declared the American Democrat Party as the Culture of Death. Joe Biden has been practically excommunicated from The Church. Nancy Pelosi was heavily and handily chastised by her Archbishop over her rewriting Vatican principles and history. Nancy now knows that history didn't start the day she was hatched.

The American Democrat Party is directly responsible for the MILLIONS of deaths following their cowardly retreat from Vietnam. They are directly responsible for American deaths in Vietnam. That is a historical fact. They can deny all they want to and spin as much as they want to but I bet they have a hard time explaining it all when the demons come.

[...] It will come as no news to readers of this site that liberal policies tend to fail. But some of them fail catastrophically. And when they do, they kill. They kill in large numbers. They have been killing for decades, and they will continue to kill for as long as we allow it.

The process is called democide, the murder of a populace by its own government. It can occur through malice, or indifference, or through incompetence. Almost always, it is instigated by an ideology -- fascism, Nazism, communism... and liberalism. According to Dr. R.J. Rummel, the sole scholar of democide (you'd think there would be droves of researchers working on such a critical topic -- but you'd be wrong), 262 million people have died by such means over the past century. Against that number, a half-million is a bagatelle, a drop in the bucket.

But it happened in our country. It happened in America. [...]

We can stop it and we can change things but we have to actually ACT and DO something and hopefully, we do it via the ballot box and getting our Vertical Alignment all squared away with our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

The DNC Rift Tsunami

~Snooper~

The Democrat Party is falling apart but one would not know that reading the Lame Stream Media. However, those of us that comprise the Main Street Media are hearing a different song. It is the Death Knell Dirge of the DNC.

Barack Hussein Obama did Hillary wrong and she isn't about to forget or forgive, no matter the public appearances of both Hillary and Bill and their subsequent rhetoric in support of Obama. If anyone truly believes that the Clinton's are supporting Obama, they are certainly lost in space.

When I was building the blog for the Stop Her Now Campaign, called the Hot Rodham Blog, we spent hours and hours and hours researching the Clinton Clan and we got to know them very well. They are not about to forgive or forget the railroading they received from the DNC leadership, George Soros or Barack Hussein Obama. Not by a long shot. The Democrat Convention was a sure-fire give-away.

Please recall that when Hillary saw that she was going to walk away from the Convention with the nomination, The Big Nod, she realized what that would mean. I have to give her credit. She quickly went to a microphone and asked to not have the usual voting procedures, thus bypassing what was to come. When reviewing the videos, one can hear a vast majority booing her decision. Nancy Pelosi was quick to ask for those that approve and not once did she allow for those that did not approve to have their say. That is a typical maneuver of the Party of Intolerance...if you disagree, you have no say.

Sound familiar?

We saw decades of Identity Politics come crashing down and the rift is growing. However, don't believe me. Believe this; from the American Thinker, Steven M. Warshawsky brings us the following: Signs Pointing To A McCain Victory

[...] This is the "narrative" that the mainstream media has been imposing on this year's presidential campaign almost from the start. Remember how quickly the MSM jumped off the Hillary Clinton bandwagon and onto Obama's? Remember how annoyed and angry they became as Hillary refused to concede the nomination? The MSM decided that electing the nation's first black, socialist, anti-American president was politically and historically more important (and, for them, more exciting) than electing the nation's first female, socialist, patriotic president. And they are doing everything they can to achieve this goal.

Well, there is another story out there that the MSM refuses to address. A huge story. One that could, and I think will, significantly affect the outcome of this race. I'm referring to the widespread phenomenon of registered Democrats openly supporting John McCain. There are numerous "Democrats for McCain" type organizations. There are numerous websites and blogs written by Democrats touting McCain's candidacy. There are pro-McCain grassroots efforts being led by Democrats. And we all know friends or relatives who are Democrats, who voted for John Kerry in 2004, and who are no fans of President Bush - but who are going to vote for John McCain this year.

Yet, surprise surprise, the mainstream media is not talking about these voters, not talking about the real rift that is occurring within the ranks of the Democratic Party. Needless to say, if a similar rift were occurring in the Republican Party, it would be treated as the major story that it is. (Indeed, as such stories about the political fault lines in the Republican Party have been treated in the recent past.) [...]

By now, all we have been hearing of late is the "rift" between McCain and Palin. This is near laughable but mostly ignorant. The morphing of the stories are woefully skewed with the wishful thinking more than obvious. Just remember, that which happens to or is caused by the DNC that can be "bad news" is quickly shrugged off somewhere else. It is their trademark.

Another thing that the pollsters are "forgetting" is the Joe The Plumber voters. Another aspect is the NRA. Another aspect is the Angry White Man. Most everyone with half a brain can see the race baiting going on by Barack in that 90 to 95 percent of the "African-Americans" are voting for Barack BECAUSE he is black and ONLY because he is black, even though he is NEITHER black or white. He is a fraud and come election day, the fraud will not be victorious.

If there is any election racism in this nation it is on the part of the black community as stirred up by Obama, Sharpton and Jackson. That much is plainly obvious.

More at Memeorandum...the laughs I got from there are truly spirit lifting...

The Feminist and The Fauxminists

Cross-posted from America Needs Me

A cruel person would enjoy watching alleged feminists, hereafter referred to as fauxminists, endure prolonged spasms of apoplexy as Sarah Palin continues her march right over their illogical assertions about why she doesn't really represent them.

The main thing separating Sarah Palin from the fauxminist ideal is that she has been able to accomplish their dream with greater success and without a shitty hairdo.

It is time for these caterwauling pro-choice maniacs to exercise their right to choose to shut the hell up.

Most galling are the comparisons between "Good Bitch Hillary" and Gov. Palin. Hint to the ladies: you might want to focus on the woman who didn't need to let a man crap all over her to get where she is. Just sayin'.

The Wall Street Journal is the last major American newspaper that one doesn't have to travel to Barack Obama's backside to read. As such, while covering Sarah Palin this week the paper has offered forth that rarest of all finds in the American press: some actual journalism. Even its Opinion pieces seem more like real reporting than what we've seen above the fold from the major newspapers this week.

The rambling nature of my A.D.D. riddled brain doesn't allow for me to be succinct. Here's a paragraph from this article that explains what I have been saying for the past few days:

"Sarah Palin has put the flim-flam nature of America feminism sharply into focus, revealing the not-so-secret hypocrisy of its code and, whatever her future, this alone is an accomplishment. As she emerged into the nation's consciousness, a shudder went through the feminist left-a political movement not restricted to females. She is a mother refusing to stay at home (good) who had made a success out in the workplace (excellent) whose marriage nevertheless is a rip-roaring success and whose views are unspeakable-those of a red-blooded, right-wing principled pragmatist."

I could never pull off using a phrase like "flim-flam".

As the above quote indicates, left-leaning men have subscribed to the feminist ideal for years.

So...

It's interesting that the McCain campaign features some female CEOs and a female VP candidate. The Democratic ticket has a couple of dudes and a vanquished token. You can see why the fauxminists are mad, can't you?

There's a palpable fear being exhibited by the women who have largely been treating feminism like a fashionable fetish now that a real woman has shown up and done all that they've wanted to do. That their first instinct is to tear her apart is very telling about just how deep their convictions are.

It is impossible to open a world of possibilities by narrowly defining what the achievement of those possibilities is. Saying "You can have whatever you want as long as you're exactly like me..." isn't exactly the path to a dream.

The feminist movement in America lost the largest part of its credibility when it embraced Bill and Hillary Clinton. Singularly focused on abortion, it ignored the fact that Bill was a sexual predator and celebrated Hillary acting like a spineless pushover to achieve her goals. Hillary Clinton, feminist icon, would have gotten absolutely nowhere without her husband.

Ah...there's the rub.

Sarah Palin didn't use her husband's money, position or permission to get where she is.

It's the exposition of tokenism vs. merit that has the Feminist Left up in arms. Gov. Palin earned her position without quotas or a man paving her way. She earned it by working hard and being Sarah Palin.

That doesn't resonate with people who believe that government intervention trumps individual accomplishment.

Don't know about you but I look forward to watching the Woman Who Has Done It go up against the Women Who Have Talked About It.

Obama site urges: 'Revolution' against U.S. 'oppressive' regime

Marxists, socialists, communists form group to plot on official campaign blog

Posted: June 30, 2008
By Aaron Klein

© 2008 WorldNetDaily

JERUSALEM – Marxists, socialists and communists have created a safe space online to congregate, exchange ideas – including a stated revolution against the U.S. "oppressive" regime – and support their favored presidential candidate.

Their meeting spot? Sen. Barack Obama's official campaign website, which allows registered users to form groups and post content in online "community" blogs.

One popular community group on the Illinois senator's official MyObama website calls itself "Marxists/Socialists/Communists for Obama."

"This group is for self-proclaimed Marxists/Communists/Socialists for the election of Barack Obama to the Presidency. By no means is he a true Marxist, but under Karl Marx's writings we are to support the party with the best interests of the mobilization of the proletariat," states the groups charter.

"We support Barak Obama because he knows what is best for the people!" exclaims the group's online creed.

And on Obama's site, the declared Marxist, communist and socialist bloggersrant against such varied targets as Republicans, capitalism and the Fox News Channel. According to author profiles, the bloggers range from registered voters to underage high school students who state they are looking to foment revolt.

In a posting titled "The Nature of the Proletariat," one group member calls for revolution against the U.S. "oppressive" regime.

According to Marxist doctrine, the proletariat is the only class that can
overpower and vanquish the oppressive bourgeoisie. ... In America, the
'peasantry' is not scattered from each other but rather seem (sic) to be
isolated in certain high-population areas. This then leaves the
Petty-Bourgeoisie. Are they a possible force of a Revolution? I believe so. Not
because I think that they could on there own, but because of the fact that they
seemed to have assimilated with the Proletariat.


The middle class is now made up of the laborers who must face the grueling
task of providing the bourgeoisie with power and capital. This assimilation only
proves that the Revolution is inevitable.

"Eventually, the bourgeoisie controlled government will fail to keep the ever growing masses at bay, and the Revolution will occur," adds the posting.

The user argues Obama will help advance the "revolution," which he says can be a physical revolt or massive governmental reform:

"The Neo-proleatarian is now the bearer of the Revolution. That's why I support Obama. He helps destroy the paradigm of bourgeoisie government, which is best for the Proletariat. In the end, this will only hasten the Revolution even if the Revolution must come as a massive government reform."

Another posting by a registered group member calling himself "The Chalk Graffiti Terrorist" argues on Obama's site against the "evils" of capitalism.

"We can’t just accept the evil side of capitalism. The nature of capitalism is to maximize profits, and this is often done by minimizing expenditure—in short, cutting costs. And cutting costs means less benefits, less pay, and poorer conditions for the workers. But capitalism has more evil in it than that. The profit motive drives the destruction of our environment, it has caused the current foreclosure crisis, and it exploits and basically enslaves those poor not protected by legitimate representative government."

One group member urges Obama site readers to support the Fair Tax bill, which calls for the abolishment of the IRS and for the income tax to be replaced with a national consumption tax.

The bill has some support across the U.S. political spectrum, including with some Republicans.

"This bill was created to try and rectify the problems that have emerged from the Federal Income Tax and the IRS's existence. It would repeal the 16th Amendment and put in its place a national sales tax for the United States Government to collect revenue."

It was not immediately clear whether Obama's website staff approves new groups registered on his site. His campaign did not return WND e-mail and phone requests for comment. While the website carries a disclaimer that it does not monitor all blog posts, the site doesn't state whether staff approve new groups.

According to the MyObama site, there were 18,911 registered community groups as of yesterday, including such groups as "Atheists for Obama," "Jedi Knights for Obama," "Muslims for Obama" and "'The Secret' Believers for Obama."

Obama spokesmen previously have stated the campaign cannot monitor all content posted on blogs, but it promptly removes content brought to its attention that is deemed inappropriate or hateful.

Yesterday WND reported a blog posting on Obama's official campaign site urged Americans to take action to secure the release of imprisoned terrorist fundraiser Sami Al-Arian, comparing the controversial former professor to Martin Luther King and Malcolm X.

The posting, which has been removed since publication of the story, is just a sampling of a large volume of racist, anti-Semitic and pro-Palestinian rhetoric published on the user-friendly MyObama community blog pages.

One recently removed posting claims Jews control the media. Another referred to Jews as "puppet masters" and "war criminals." Yet another posting, titled "The Israeli connection to 9/11," claimed Israeli intelligence was involved in the mega-attack and planted "false flags" to blame Arab countries.

Other MyObama posts have warned of "Judeofacists and their Neocon comrades" who "already destroyed America" and declare the "entire Congress should be overthrown by revolution for having sold America to the Israelis."

A popular topic on Obama's site apparently is the so-called Israel Lobby.

An Obama site search under the key words "Israel lobby" brings up a large number of pages with titles such as "Bush uses Nazi history against Obama to pander to the Jewish lobby" and "The Israel Lobby: bad for the world."

In one recently removed posting, titled, "How the Jewish Lobby works," the page read, "No lobby is feared more" and claimed Jews "run the Federal Reserve Bank, US Homeland Security, and the US State Department."

Why Snooper Will Vote Against Obama Or Clinton

~Snooper~

I will not sit on my ass and let the world slide by to a Marxist.

I will not abandon The Troops.

Those that have fought for it, Freedom has a taste the "PROTECTED" will NEVER know.

I don't give a damn about the Republican Party. Nor do I desire to "teach them a lesson". We see how that lame attitude worked in 2006, did we not?

"McCain", in the words of many a familiar blogger, "MIGHT secure the border. Obama will not. McCain MIGHT continue the Bush tax cuts. Obama will not. McCain DOES support The Troops and their Mission. Obama does not. McCain might emplace conservative judges. Obama will not". That right there is a no brainer.

It is McCain for many reasons which goes against the grain of a feigned and ill-conceived principle based on emotion and disappointment and frustration.

The silliness and folly of "teaching the GOP a lesson" by "staying home" and thereby and by default casting a vote for a known Marxist and Troop Hater, does not and cannot pass muster, no matter the alleged reasoning. Such folly is a direct groin kick from behind to the crotch of every veteran of every war we have ever fought. It is pissing on the graves of every Fallen Hero from every war we have ever fought. This is unacceptable. Recent SCOTUS decisions should be a clear indicator even to the casual observer.

I am a Troop. My son is a Troop. My wife is a Troop. My brother (KIA VN '68) is a Troop. My father is a Troop and all my uncles are Troops. Our family has served this Nation since the Revolutionary War and before. We know what sacrifice is and what it means. Most Americans don't know what it means.

The C'est la Guerre post still stands as it is written and is even more applicable today than it was when I wrote it as does Go Ahead: Allow Obama To Win...I find it chillingly eerie that a Pfc has more common sense than those of "principle" no matter who that person may or may not be. Once again, someone with Boots On The Ground trumps those that have no earthly concept what that would be like. And, more's the pity.

No. Snooper will not roll over in frustration and weariness of The Good Fight to teach anyone a lesson about anything because I don't have the time to play that game of hysterics. I will lead by example. I am a fighter. When a Flag falls, I will pick it up and charge forward, not sit down and let someone else do it. If not me, who?

The Battle Field lies in the House and Senate, not in the Presidency. That much is obvious even to the oblivious. Over the next 2 to 6 years, that is where the conflict lies- in the House and Senate - and bears merit. All other argument(s) fall flat because they carry no merit or worth. The Good Fight has yet to be realized and that which we have accomplished in the last 8 years will all be for naught should we sit back and let the country fall to a Marxist.

I didn't serve this nation to allow the silliness and folly of "teaching the GOP/RNC/RINO/MORON class of sycophant a lesson" about anything to become some demonstrative chant of see-I-told-ya-so. That attitude causes me to practically hurl. Our Troops' blood is worth so much more than that. You want to "teach someone" a lesson? Get off of your ass, turn off the idiotic boob tube - the device of complacency, indoctrination, and escapism - and begin to write letters, send faxes and emails and phone calls to every CONgressman and every Senator. Be a pest. That is what the enemy does and is good at it. Your basic Conservative is about as lazy as a hog in mud by design and it hurts to work and fight.

If I can take power naps on a rocky crag while observing enemy movements to keep you safe at night; if our Troops can sleep in mud holes in the rain to keep you safe at night; if my son could sleep in an environment that would make an outdoorsman cringe to keep you safe at night; the least you can do is turn your goddamn TV off and commence to fight and at least try to repay them what they are so deserving of...your support. And, turning the country over to a known Marxist is not the support we Troops will except. EVER.

We got Reagan because of several events: the aftermath of Vietnam, Nixon, Agnew, Ford, Carter and the economy. And, we are STILL digging out of the Carter Quagmire on many levels. We will never see another Reagan. Period. Get over it. Step away from the 'shrooms. We got McCain because of lazy Silent Majority Conservatives too damned lazy to act until it is too late and then they whine and complain and bitch when the going gets tough.

The "lesson" to be taught and learned right here and now is this: when the going gets toughest, that is when you lay the pressure on, without mercy and without remorse. We beat Shamnesty thrice. We have exposed the Leftinistra for what they are and we are gaining. Why surrender now to teach the unteachable a lesson? What will they learn and who will teach them? There are men and women poised to snag seats away from RINOs and socialists and we are going to let Obama defeat them?

Vanity. All is vanity. And, there is nothing new under the sun.

No. It is McCain because the alternative is not only unthinkable, it is unacceptable.

Vultural Jihad: American Politics BAU

~Snooper~

As we head into the Democrat Brokered Convention in Denver and the vacuous rantings of the Leftinistra Whinosphere, I can't help but see the enemies within on the run. 40+ years of socialist/marxist/stalinist garbage has come to a shrilling head and the members thereof cannot help but eat each other alive.

Yes. I said we have them on the run. Just like Al Qaida in Iraq and the Taliban in Afghanistan - two peas in a pod, as it were. The enemy is the enemy is the enemy no matter how you look at it.

As the enemy, the Leftinistra - armies of the socialist democrat - spar back and forth about who has more of what following and who is electable or not, the feminists and the racists are tearing at each other's throats and clawing each other's eyes. For what? A decisive hammering come November? Laughable that.

They delude themselves seeing that 2007 revealed their "udder" inability to lead. It has come down to not being able to tell the two DNC aspirants one from another and today, Hillary accused Barack of being a copy-cat. Copy-cat? Please. Two peas in a pod and that's the best she has? Unbelievable.

To the Leftinistra, everything is always the fault of something or someone else. Incredible. The Leftinistra rhetoric of the Global Warming Myth wrought upon the world is creating devastation across the globe driving prices higher and higher as the Leftinistra try to out-socialist each other. And now, it has created food shortages right here in the United States. Who will they blame for this?

As we all know, Barack isn't even close to being ready to lead an ant farm on a field trip in the woods, and he certainly isn't ready to lead this nation. He will most assuredly be handed his walking papers when going up against McCain. Hillary won't fair much better, either. The problem is, neither know it. Yet. Her two-faced "misspeaks" (whatever those are) will come home to roost and her blatant pandering while scratching for political survival are indicative of an unstable mind. Nuke Iran? That's almost as bad as Barack saying the same thing about Pakistan.

Hillary we know about and her budding Leninisms are well known. Barack, on the other hand, is an unknown. That is slowly being changed and as soon as he is completely exposed, then the socialist democrats will have to decide which friend of the terrorists and other anti-Americanists that they would "Rather" choose as their candidate. Jimmy Carter has already selected Obama (not officially) and that right there is a clear indication of a Clear and Present Danger to this nation.

Let them whine, scratch and claw. It is a pride thing now because neither DNC aspirant can reach the magic number before Denver and every step of the way, they are making it that much more obvious, even to the oblivious, that John McCain will be the next President of the United States.

Like we say at A Newt One:

Karl Rove says that Obama ain't ready for Prime Time, either.

Vultural Jihad: Barack The Sore Loser

~Snooper~

Ever since the ABC hosted "final debate" between the two Marxists Hillary and Obama last week, Barack has had an obvious chip on his face that needs to be knocked off. When folks have presidential aspirations, they really should be ready for subjects and circumstances which causes skin to crawl but need to be faced and hammered out as best they can. A President doesn't address issues that he or she chooses to.

So, with Barack losing as he did in Pennsylvania, a 10-point spread for Hillary and over 200K in popular votes, Barack lost pretty badly. So, what does he do? According to that mean and nasty ABC, he has thrown a temper tantrum.

White House contender Barack Obama has torn into his Democratic rival Hillary Clinton for using terrorism to scare up votes, and Republican John McCain for offering broken policies.

In a tub-thumping speech in Indiana, which along with North Carolina is the next stop in the Democratic nominating race on May 6, Senator Obama conceded defeat to Senator Clinton in the day's Pennsylvania primary. [...]

Stop whining. This guy makes me ill. It seems as though he only wants to talk about subjects he has practiced on and when he has a teleprompter handy.

Look, Barack, not only are you not suited to be the President of The United States or the CIC in a time of war, let alone in a time of peace, your gaffes are a portent into what you really are - an empty Marxist suit.

Hillary isn't much better when it comes to the Marxist/Stalinist rhetoric but she does pander better than you do. Get over it. You are headed for a brokered convention and you are going leave that place a Senator and that is all.

Have fun in that Abyss of Obscurity that you have secured for yourself because you won't win re-election to that post. Period. You. Are. Toast.

Silly People and The Cult Of Obama

~Snooper~

The end result of the pathetic educational system in our country, I believe, is coming to fruition in the election cycle we are now in. Idiots are supporting Obama for no other reason than that Obama sure can sound good and he is so likable. Credentials and accomplishments mean nothing. The qualifications to lead this country mean nothing. The fact that the fool Obama said that he will attack Pakistan - an emotional outburst - means nothing.

Theoretically intelligent people within our own CONgress should be able to explain to the American People why it is they support a man totally unqualified for the position of President of the United States.

In a recent interview (video) of a theoretical intelligent person, SS Kirk Watson of Texas, supports Obama but can't name anything Obama has actually done. All that is attempted is to explain what Obama has to offer America right now. And, that is "HOPE". Well, I "HOPE" Barak Obama gets beat like a wet mule in the General Elections because the guy is a socialist/Marxist on top of being an empty shell.

Chris Matthews for PMSNBS/MSLSD did a great job totally embarrassing the idiot Watson on national TV and the poor sloths over at Huff and Puff are LIVID! Check out the comments section. More reactions from the despondent Leftinistra will be spewing forth at memeorandum soon enough but the point is this...Obama supporters, as educated as they may or may not be, are totally dumb and emotional malcontents that should have no business supporting tooth fairies, let alone a presidential aspirant.

Ed Morrissey of Captain's Quarters has the transcript of the interview and we all need to key in on this portion:

[...] MSNBC's Chris Matthews: "You are a big Barack supporter, right, Senator?"

State Sen. Watson: "I am. Yes, I am."

Matthews: "Well, name some of his legislative accomplishments. No, Senator, I want you to name some of Barack Obama's legislative accomplishments tonight if you can."

State Sen. Watson: "Well, you know, what I will talk about is more about what he is offering the American people right now."

Matthews: "No. No. What has he accomplished, sir? You say you support him. Sir, you have to give me his accomplishments. You've supported him for president. You are on national television. Name his legislative accomplishments, Barack Obama, sir."

State Sen. Watson: "Well, I'm not going to be able to name you specific items of legislative accomplishments."

Matthews: "Can you name any? Can you name anything he's accomplished as a Congressman?"

State Sen. Watson: "No, I'm not going to be able to do that tonight."

Matthews: "Well, that is a problem isn't it?" [...]

Nothing. Zip. Zilch. Nada. No accomplishments. No qualifications. No credentials. Just emotional garbage. How wonderful is that? I suppose some may be scrambling to see what they can dream up or fabricate for a list of Barakian Accomplishments. Hillary has none either but that is another story.

GET FIRED UP!!

~Snooper~

Listen up, peeps! Ya'll heard me, dammit...I said LISTEN UP PEEPS! Whereas McLame ain't no conservative, no matter the speechifying I heard today, live, doesn't mean that we roll over and play nice-nice or play dead...like the Leftinistra want us to do.

Some would have us "stay home and show the RNC/GOP a thing or two". The people that are saying that are the morons that screwed us in 2006. Remember those morons? That worked out pretty well, didn't it? In the long run, it has caused the War In Iraq to go longer than it needed to be and it got more of our troops wounded, maimed and KIA. Ain't THAT somptin' ta be prowd uv? Friggin morons.

And what about all this stupid talk about voting for Hillary crap? Or even Obama? Have they lost their fool minds? Some say that we should give the country to the Marxist or the Socialist so they can screw the country up and we can blame them for the mess. Then, we can find us a Conservative Savior to come to the rescue in 2012. That is one of the MOST retarded things I have ever heard. We did that LAST year...that's the problem with short-term thinking postulating idiots. They suffer from CRS...can't remember SHIT! If we do that, we just might not have a country to save. Think about that before you go off being all pious and mighty and retarded.

Scenario 1: Hillary is crowned the new CIC. The next day, as CIC, she can "unwage" war and pull the troops out, like she said she would do...or not...depending on what time of the month she is in at the time or which way the wind is blowing or where Billy is wetting his whistle with. Then, just like Billy Bob's pathetic showing against our enemies, we will be seen as weak and dispirited and here they come again. Is THAT what we want, peeps?

Scenario 2: Obama is crowned the new CIC. The same thing as Hillary except this fool has said that he will attack Pakistan...an ALLY. IS ANYONE OUT THERE??

Scenario 3: McCain is crowned the new CIC. He will continue the crush on AQ that we have routed and are mopping up with at this very moment in Iraq and soon in Afghanistan. Victory is at hand and he knows it...so do we. He won't pull the troops out before the job is done.

Hillary and Obama will get us all killed and while the Europeans fall to the Caliphate because Hillary will be too busy crying for the cameras or Obama is too busy catering to his Jiahdi financiers, you and I will be hold up in the hills with our private militias waiting for some "revenuer" coming for our weapons.

Is that what we want? If that is what you want, kiss my ass. What the hell did I fight and bleed for this country for if you idiots out there are going to sit on your asses and "show them"? What do we tell our troops? Would you be able to in good conscience tell them that they died because you were a moron? What will you tell the demons when they come each night? Trust me...it ain't easy talking to them.

Michelle Malkin, in all her blustering and all of her frustrations, kept her wits about her when my other heroes Sean, Rush, Ann and some others totally lost it. Go ahead Ann, go campaign for Hillary now that you opened up your GD yapper and spouted off like my 13 year old did just a few hours ago. Friggin morons.

We have an expression in the US Army. You may have heard of it; Embrace The Suck. Go find out what it means...I already know. Been there and done that one several times. Here is a hint...if our troops can do it for YOU, the LEAST YOU can do, is do it for them.

We have work to do. There is a Congress up for grabs. Many RINOs and socialist seats are up for grabs this go around and there are MANY replacements working to route them out of their spider holes. We need to GET OFF OF OUR COMPLACENT ASSES and support these people. Turn off the damn non-reality shows and get to calling. Find out who these people are and campaign for them. How do you think the socialists got in there in the first place? The enemy did their leg work while YOU sat down and whined, watched TV and got drunk in the process. Support and work for and with those that are challenging the idiots in Congress and the Senate. Vote the slackers out. GET OFF OF YOUR WHINING ASSES!!

Don't listen to Sen McCain and calm down! When he said that it PISSED ME OFF! I ain't his son and he ain't my Dad! KISS MY ASS Sen McCain. I am FIRED UP NOW, BOY!

Anyway, over at Rasmussen, Michelle wrote the following: (it is also on her blog); she said the same thing I did but without the Army verbiage.

[...] The contest for the GOP presidential nomination is over. The conservative movement is not. Sen. John McCain's campaign resurrection and Super Tuesday victory leave a diverse group on the Right - from the libertarian Club for Growth to First Amendment defenders to immigration enforcement proponents - dispirited. But the failure to nominate a true Republican unifier does not spell ideological defeat.

On Wednesday, wielding his olive branch like a schoolmarm's ruler, Sen. McCain told conservatives to "calm down." My advice is exactly the opposite: Get fired up.

Some on the Right advise their readers and listeners to vote Democrat or sit home. My advice is exactly the opposite: Get off the couch and walk the walk for conservative candidates and officeholders who need all the help they can get defending free markets, free minds, and secure borders - no matter who takes the White House in November. [...]

She has more to say over there and if you REALLY want to "show the RNC/GOP something", get your floppy ass over there and STUDY what she has to say. Tell Ann Coulter to STFU and STFD.

Aw! What the hell! One more morsel of reasoned thought...

[...] If you can't stomach John McCain, channel your support and energies to Republicans who do represent your values and who have treated the conservative base as allies instead of enemies. There are a new generation of combat veterans running for office who haven't made a career of trashing the base. Check out staunch economic, social, and national security conservative congressional candidates like Iraq/Afghanistan veteran Eric Egland in California's fourth district. Check out the Vets for Freedom (vetsforfreedom.org) group for their endorsements. [...]

So, what will it be? Four years of Marxism? Four years of Socialism? Possible more Jihadi scum shit? Under a Hillary or Obama leadership and worse yet, a Hillary/Obama deal or an Obama/Hillary deal?

If you are going to stay home and not vote at least for people trying to get in and oust the cretins already there doing ZIP for the troops and our veterans, I don't want to hear it or know about it.

Lest We Forget...

South Carolina voters came out and voted for Barack HUSSEIN Obama in overwhelming numbers. It was, however, a divisive vote, with the majority of his voters being black. Okay--he at least inspired people to get out and vote and that's a good thing.

However...lest we forget...

This is a man who wants to have tea with tyrants--and these tyrants at least have the wherewithal to fake some sort of respect by wearing a lapel flag. Where's Obama's? It's MIA because he doesn't feel the need to show any kind of respect or patriotism to the country he wants to lead.




Then, of course, there is this--at least Hillary fakes her respect by properly placing her hand over whatever substitutes for a heart in the area most commonly associated with the human organ (her membership in the species homo sapiens is questionable). Where are Obama's hands?



Tea with tyrants and no respect for the symbols of the country he wants to lead. Forget his drug use, how about his muslim ties? Oh, I heard his little apologetics speech, but that doesn't settle the question. Particularly in light of his constant appeasement of islam in the name of "getting along".

This man is dangerous, folks. Pull your heads out and don't be fooled. Dorian Gray sold his soul to look appealing all his life as well.

And yes, like my friend Snooper, I question all of the democratic candidates patriotism--as well as the patriotism of the entire party.

The List of 45: Something You Should Consider As You Choose Your Elected Officials

~Snooper~

The List of 45

Years ago, a brave soul or two tried to bring to the attention of the American People that the Communist take over of America was well under way. They were chattered down and pretty much ignored through space and time. Much like today. Yet, we see every day or, at least which are tuned into reality, our political machinations stripping away at our freedoms time and time again.

It is called Identity Politics. It is called Multiculturalism. It is called Why Can't We All Get Along? It is called all manner of colored and disguised names and titles. Now, in these modern times, one can also include Cultural Jihad.

In today's rough and tumble and troubled times, we see that the ignorance of the masses has indeed brought about MANY policies of which, left unabated and unchallenged, will see the dreams and goals of the First Czarina of The United Socialist States of the Former United Free States of America. That Czarina would be the Madame Rodham, her supporters and her like-minded politicos.

Below is what I have called, The List of 45.

In the comments section, if you have a mind to, please list the items that you have seen become a reality. I have my list and it is truly eye-opening. Do you have a list? If not, you need to establish your list so you can Fight the Good Fight. Our very survival is at stake.

The communist goals were entered into the Congressional record by Albert Herlong, Jr. (a Floridian who served in Congress from 1949-69).

1) US acceptance of coexistence as the only alternative to atomic war.

2) US willingness to capitulate in preference to engaging in atomic war.

3) Develop the illusion that total disarmament by the US would be a demonstration of "moral strength."

4) Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for war.

5) Extension of long term loans to Russia and Soviet Satellites.

6) Provide American aid to all nations regardless of Communist domination.

7) Grant recognition of Red China, and admission of Red China to the UN.

8) Set up East and West Germany as separate states in spite of Khrushchev's promise in 1955 to settle the Germany question by free elections under supervision of the UN.

9) Prolong the conferences to ban atomic tests because the US has agreed to suspend tests as long as negotiations are in progress.

10) Allow all Soviet Satellites individual representation in the UN.

11) Promote the UN as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one world government with its own independent armed forces. (Some Communist leaders believe the world can be taken over as easily by the UN as by Moscow. Sometimes these two centers compete with each other as they are now doing in the Congo).

12) Resist any attempt to outlaw the Communist Party.

13) Do away with loyalty oaths.

14) Continue giving Russia access to the US Patent Office.

15) Capture one or both of the political parties in the US.

16) Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions, by claiming their activities violate civil rights.

17) Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for Socialism, and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers associations. Put the party line in text books.

18) Gain control of all student newspapers.

19) Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

20) Infiltrate the press. Get control of book review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions.

21) Gain control of key positions in radio, TV & motion pictures.

22) Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all form of artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to "eliminate all good sculpture from parks and buildings," substitute shapeless, awkward, and meaningless forms.

23) Control art critics and directors of art museums. "Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art."

24) Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press.

25) Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography, and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio and TV.

26) Present homosexuality, degeneracy, and promiscuity as "normal, natural, and healthy."

27) Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch."

28) Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the schools on the grounds that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state."

29) Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate, old fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation between nations on a worldwide basis.

30) Discredit the American founding fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the "common man".

31) Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part of "the big picture": Give more emphasis to Russian history since the Communists took over.

32) Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over any part of the culture - - education, social agencies, welfare programs, mental health clinics, etc.

33) Eliminate all laws or procedures, which interfere with the operation of the Communist apparatus.

34) Eliminate the House Committee on Un-American Activities.

35) Discredit and eventually dismantle the FBI.

36) Infiltrate and gain control of more unions.

37) Infiltrate and gain control of big business.

38) Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which no one but psychiatrists can understand or treat.

39) Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist goals.

40) Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce.

41) Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding of children to suppressive influence of parents.

42) Create the impression that violence and insurrection are legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and special interest groups should rise up and make a "united force" to solve economic, political, or social problems.

43) Overthrow all colonial governments before native populations are ready for self-government.

44) Internationalize the Panama Canal.

45) Repeal the Connally Reservation so the US can not prevent the World Court from seizing jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over domestic problems. Give the World Court jurisdiction over nations and individuals alike.

The nitty-gritty details can be read and studied in the book, The Naked Communist.

The goals that he read were taken from "The Naked Communist" by Cleon Skousen, which can be purchased from Amazon:

Next, we will look at the Communist Manifesto

Circa 1956, or so, the Top Dog of the USSR, Nikita Kruschev pounded his shoe on the podium of the United Nations and shouted to the West, "We will bury you!"

Many had no idea what this meant and said openly that they would have to have that translated. Some scoffed at the concept at the USSR burying the West but hind sight is now 20-20. It shows that we should NEVER take for granted that this and that can never happen to us and to take all threats seriously and keep a watchful eye on the enemy in both peace time and during war. I would go as far as saying that it would be wiser to keep a more watchful eye on the enemy in peace time whether than war time.

Cooler heads prevailed and with the USSR waltzing through Europe and the Middle East, the United States proceeded to build up the United States military and created the most powerful military in the world and in history. Thus remains true to this date. Unfortunately, while the military gained prominence in the world, we allowed our political machinations go unchecked and naturally assumed that the politicians knew what they were doing. Some did. Some didn't.

There were and, still are, two kinds of those that did know what they were doing. Some were devout socialists that penetrated the American political scene and some recognized that threat but were scorned and frowned upon because certainly, this socialist take-over surely could not happen. No one would choose socialism/communism over the American Federal Republic. They have been proven wrong and it is time to wake the hell up. There are many kinds of politicians that have no idea what they are doing and it is very much evident when you hear them speak.

Liberal activists, read that communist operatives, gained positions of political office throughout American on the local, State and Federal levels. Impossible you say? Conspiratorial you say? Perhaps; but the evidence puts to rest the conspiratorial over tones.

American law making processes have gradually, through the years, and nearly assimilated into American society laws that will give a natural and seemingly painless pathway to drift into full-blown Communism in downtown America. “The Communist program from the start has been one which sees their revolution of 1917 successful only upon total domination of the world. (See Brain Washing, A Synthesis of the Russian Textbook on Psychopolitics)

We Americans are the singularly most compassionate in the world, the most benevolent and the most naive people there have ever been. We even believe that Communism is dead because the Berlin Wall came down. Communism ain't dead. It is called something else. It is called "progressive". It is called "Social Democracy". It is called "Democracy". Some even call it "International Democracy"…think George Soros here. Political Correctness has blind-sided those that merely go along with the emotionally weak.

There are others that claim that DC has become part of the New World Order of atheist governments. Whereas that can be argued, I would not go that far but I do see a resemblance of this in the current political climate. The Iron Curtain has come down in Europe and there are indeed proponents within the United Sates that would like to raise it here at home and give birth to what I have come to call the New United Socialist States of the North American Continent, including Canada, seeing that parts of Canada has indeed succumb to socialist ideals and thought and speech control.

With that said, it is a matter of record and fact that our American Politicians have supported and passed legislation during the years spanning from the early 1960s to 2008. They are anti-Christian, anti-American statutes and regulations on the federal, state, and local levels. They are oddly reminiscent of the original ten planks of the Communist Manifesto written by Karl Marx in 1848.

Listed below are 10 key "laws" which have become part of the every day life of the American populace. "The American people have truly been 'buried in Communism'" and they do not even know it or not aware of it. Not one "main stream" political party is to blame. Both Democrat and Republican parties are to blame with the majority of socialistic yearning members being in the DNC and a great number in the GOP…we call them RINOs and I now dub the socialist Democrats DINOs.

Each of the Ten Planks is noted below with annotations of laws passed in the US Legislative Processes. Be afraid and wake the hell up.

1. Abolition of private property and the application of all rent to public purpose.
The 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution (1868), and various zoning, school & property taxes. Also the Bureau of Land Management.

2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.
Misapplication of the 16th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, 1913, The Social Security Act of 1936.; Joint House Resolution 192 of 1933; and various State "income" taxes. We call it "paying your fair share".

3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.
We call it Federal & State estate Tax (1916); or reformed Probate Laws, and limited inheritance via arbitrary inheritance tax statutes.

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.
We call in government seizures, tax liens, Public "law" 99-570 (1986); Executive Order 11490, sections 1205, 2002 which gives private land to the Department of Urban Development; the imprisonment of "terrorists" and those who speak out or write against the "government" (1997 Crime/Terrorist Bill); or the IRS confiscation of property without due process.

5. Centralization of credit in the hands of the State, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.
We call it the Federal Reserve which is a credit/debt system nationally organized by the Federal Reserve act of 1913. All local banks are members of the Fed system, and are regulated by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

6. Centralization of the means of communication and transportation in the hands of the State.
We call it the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Department of Transportation (DOT) mandated through the ICC act of 1887, the Commissions Act of 1934, The Interstate Commerce Commission established in 1938, The Federal Aviation Administration, Federal Communications Commission, and Executive Orders 11490, 10999, as well as State mandated driver's licenses and Department of Transportation regulations.

7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the State, the bringing into cultivation of waste lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.
We call it corporate capacity, The Desert Entry Act and The Department of Agriculture. As well as the Department of Commerce and Labor, Department of Interior, the Environmental Protection Agency, Bureau of Land Management, Bureau of Reclamation, Bureau of Mines, National Park Service, and the IRS control of business through corporate regulations.

8. Equal liability of all to labor. Establishment of Industrial armies, especially for agriculture.
We call it the Social Security Administration and The Department of Labor. The National debt and inflation caused by the communal bank has caused the need for a two "income" family. Woman in the workplace since the 1920's, the 19th amendment of the U.S. Constitution, the Civil Rights Act of 1964, assorted Socialist Unions, affirmative action, the Federal Public Works Program and of course Executive Order 11000.

9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the population over the country. We call it the Planning Reorganization act of 1949 , zoning (Title 17 1910-1990) and Super Corporate Farms, as well as Executive orders 11647, 11731 (ten regions) and Public "law" 89-136.

10. Free education for all children in government schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc. etc.
People are being taxed to support what we call 'public' schools, which train the young to work for the communal debt system. We also call it the Department of Education, the NEA and Outcome Based "Education".

So I ask you...does changing the words, change the end result? By using different words is it all of a sudden OK? We are so "smart," aren't we??

Ladies and Gentleman, not only are we in a war; a Global War On Terror, we are in a war right here in the Continental United States and her "offspring" and territories.

What are your freedoms worth? What price is your soul? To whom and to what do you swear your allegiance to?

Excerpt from The Communist Manifesto of 1848 by Karl Marx and Frederick Engels:

Of course, in the beginning, this cannot be effected except by means of despotic inroads on the rights of property, and on the conditions of bourgeois production; by means of measures, therefore, which appear economically insufficient and untenable, but which, in the course of the movement, outstrip themselves, necessitate further inroads upon the old social order, and are unavoidable as a means of entirely revolutionizing the mode of production.

These measures will, of course, be different in different countries.

Nevertheless, in most advanced countries, the following will be pretty generally applicable.

1. Abolition of property in land and application of all rents of land to public purposes.

2. A heavy progressive or graduated income tax.

3. Abolition of all rights of inheritance.

4. Confiscation of the property of all emigrants and rebels.

5. Centralization of credit in the banks of the state, by means of a national bank with state capital and an exclusive monopoly.

6. Centralization of the means of communication and transport in the hands of the state.

7. Extension of factories and instruments of production owned by the state; the bringing into cultivation of waste lands, and the improvement of the soil generally in accordance with a common plan.

8. Equal obligation of all to work. Establishment of industrial armies, especially for agriculture.

9. Combination of agriculture with manufacturing industries; gradual abolition of all the distinction between town and country by a more equable distribution of the populace over the country.

10. Free education for all children in public schools. Abolition of children's factory labor in its present form. Combination of education with industrial production, etc.

When, in the course of development, class distinctions have disappeared, and all production has been concentrated in the hands of a vast association of the whole nation, the public power will lose its political character. Political power, properly so called, is merely the organized power of one class for oppressing another. If the proletariat during its contest with the bourgeoisie is compelled, by the force of circumstances, to organize itself as a class; if, by means of a revolution, it makes itself the ruling class, and, as such, sweeps away by force the old conditions of production, then it will, along with these conditions, have swept away the conditions for the existence of class antagonisms and of classes generally, and will thereby have abolished its own supremacy as a class.

The meaning of peace is the absence of opposition to socialism. -- Karl Marx, German political Philosopher and revolutionary, 1818-1883

Fred: Confusion, Fear or Purposeful Misinformation?

As the circus in Iowa reaches its crescendo, two conflicting reports come out about Fred. One states he will drop out of the presidential race and give his support to McCain if he places less than third; the other shows a surge in support for Fred.

First, we'll address the issue of whether or not he'll drop out of the presidential race.

Jonathan Martin and Mike Allen of The Politico post a January 2, 2008 report:

A Thompson campaign source said there is “a strong likelihood” that if Thompson comes in a distant third in Iowa, with less than 15 percent of the vote, he would drop out soon—most likely before this weekend’s New Hampshire presidential debates.

The Thompson sources said they were describing a consensus expectation that is now widespread among his political circle, not announcing a decision that the candidate himself has definitively reached.

and:

Trying to fend off rumors about an impending demise of the campaign, Thompson issued a news release Wednesday afternoon saying he plans to participate in debates in New Hampshire on Saturday and Sunday. Thompson was alone in issuing such a release: No other campaign thought that was necessary.

Despite the air of doom hovering over his candidacy, Thompson has not yet shared his intentions with the campaign or indicated to friends that he has reached a decision in tandem with his wife, Jeri, an influential adviser. Campaign underlings continue to make plans as far ahead as Super Tuesday, Feb. 5.

Interesting how there is no actual source named, just a lot of vague "campaign source", "consensus expectation", etc. Nothing and no one specific.

Traveling to Digby at Hullabaloo, he posts this:

Sad, sad news, my friends. Fredmania may be over (this link just leads back to the Politico post).

The most "intelligent" comment from Hullabaloo comes here:

I was particularly excited at the prospect that we might have a first lady with big tits.
Riesz Fischer | 01.03.08 - 12:59 am | #

Frankly, it sounds like a bunch of wishful thinking. Yes, Fred's had a difficult time fundraising. He's had a difficult time getting his message out because the MSM is terrified of someone who's a straight shooter, who has though out the issues and written up a "battle plan" of policies and how he plans to handle issues and someone who plain doesn't pander to the MSM.

Fred runs his campaign as a campaign and not as a circus. That's part of what differentiates him from the rest of the candidates, and the point was made earlier today by Peter Robinson at The Corner here:

Iowa Republicans, in other words, have wanted Thompson to do them the courtesy of actually campaigning—and now they’re beginning to realize that he has. First Thompson conducted a two-week bus tour of Iowa at which he campaigned in more than 50 towns and cities. Then he taped a 17-minute video in which he makes his case more calmly, deliberately, and and with incomparably greater respect for the issues than has any of his opponents. And? For a lot of Iowa Republicans, that’s all they needed.

Perhaps Iowans, and maybe the rest of the conservatives out there, are beginning to wake up to the truth of what Fred is promoting and his strengths on the issues.

Race 4 2008 posts the same article of Fred dropping out as referenced above. However, there is a quote from the comments section at The Politico that appears at this site as well.

From The Politico comments:

Phil D Location: NA Party: Republican

Reply #: 17 Date: Jan. 2, 2008 - 11:38 PM EST

---

Here’s the update from the broadcast in Des Moines tonight on KCCI, the most watched local news in Iowa. Fred was asked about what events would take place if he finishes 3rd or last, and if it is true he will endorse McCain. His answer, “Total fabrication, he never said it either privately or publicly, and it was planted by some other campaign” Then he joked with the anchors about imagine that happening in politics!

Fred08.com

And the comments section from Race 4 2008:

1. Tommy Oliver Says:
   January 3rd, 2008 at 1:07 am

   Here’s the update from the broadcast in Des Moines tonight on KCCI, First, he was asked about what events would take place if he finishes 3rd or last, and if it is true he will endorse McCain. His answer, “Total fabrication, he never said it either privately or publicly, and it was planted by some other campaign”

Again, interesting the "source" of the "drop out" comments was never named, but is a vague "campaign source".

Now, the opposite side of the coin reads Fred is experiencing a late breaking surge in Iowa.

Peter Robinson at The Corner reports on the latest Zogby poll here:

The Thompson campaign may be shaping up as something like the precise reverse of the Clinton campaign. Presenting herself as the candidate of inevitability, Hillary dare not slip in the polls for fear of suffering a rapid and irretrievable collapse. Fred is by contrast the candidate who just can’t get elected—solid, likeable, and best on the issues—but, well, a man for whom it just isn’t going to happen. But as modest as it so far remains, his sudden rise in the polls—this “late-breaking surge,” to quote Zogby again—could persuade whole slews of Republicans that Fred could indeed win after all, leading to a definitive breakout.

Spree at Wake Up America and Snooper at A Newt One are also reporting on this poll and Fred's surge.

From Spree:

It seems Fred has a "late breaking surge" (Zogby's words) in Iowa, via the Corner, who points to Zogby's latest.

From Snooper:

In their daily tracking poll, conducted by traditional telephone surveys rather than on-line polls, Zogby shows a significant bump in support over the last three days -- enough to tie Fred with John McCain for third place.

And from Zogby:

Arizona Sen. John McCain remained in third place at 12%, tied with former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson, who has seen a late-breaking surge.

So the question is--is Fred ready to throw in the towel (which would absolutely delight the democrats and RINOS as well as the MSM) or is he finally starting to come alive and people are finally starting to realize he has indeed been campaigning as a candidate should--a man worthy of the position of CIC rather than a carnival barker to the house of horrors?

And, is Fred really as conservative as we all think he is? For the answer to that question, I refer you back to his site here and this entry page to the issues and his "plan" on those issues. I also refer you to one last article by Peter Robinson at The Corner entitled "Fred Thompson, Reagan Conservative".

We will probably never see another RWR in our lifetime. However, Fred comes close. It would be outstanding if we could get a Fred Thompson/Duncan Hunter ticket. Don't count Fred out yet. If he drops out, we will be left with nothing but RINOS and the left. And that, my friends, would be terrible news for this country.

Catch the Wave!

Is There a Candidate Seriously Addressing ANYTHING Right Now?

Ladies and gentlemen, I've been on hiatus for my Christmas, spending time with my family, dealing with some personal crisis and whatnot. However, I've been keeping an eye on the news and the blogs and, frankly, I'm disgusted with our crop of candidates--both democrat and Republican.

Coming into the Iowa caucus, a perfect opportunity has presented itself for someone to step forward from both packs and distinguish themselves as the man we need to lead this country.

Yes, I purposely stated "Man"...I do NOT believe HRC is in any way qualified, now or ever, to lead this country, and frankly, would not be able to withstand her nails-on-chalkboard voice for any length of time.

If you want a torture method, tape an endless loop of her screechings and use that on detainees. While you're at it, superimpose pictures of Pelosi, Reed, Soros and the mushroom cloud over the screechings--the subliminal images alone should cause even the most insane jihadi to self-implode.

However, I digress.

Earlier this week, former Pakistani Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto was assassinated. Each of the candidates gave their obligatory condolence speeches, and some flubbed their message. Most "got it" right in that this is one more example of the extremism we are currently engaged in fighting (at least the Republicans did), while the democrats continued their whining about negotiations and discussions.

Now, the only attention I see is how Huckabee flubbed his message.

Okay--he flubbed his message. Big whooping deal.

Let's cut to the chase and reality here.

Since that day, not one candidate (that I can see or find) has addressed with any kind of seriousness, what actually HAPPENED and what that reality MEANS to us here in the US. And, yes, it DOES mean something here to us. Pakistan is a nuclear power. Bhutto was affiliated with the Taliban (Google it guys, before you start in on me--I'm not going to do your work for you). Pakistan, while shaky, IS an ally of the US.

So, how are these candidates going to handle something like this should they be elected? What are their plans? Surely they must have SOMETHING laid out for such an eventuality?

Like I said, the perfect opportunity to distinguish themselves from the pack. And not one, NOT ONE, has even made the effort. Instead, we're being treated to the same song and dance that's been force-fed to us throughout this disgustingly long campaign period.

Well, guess what?

I'm not voting for anyone on the democrat ticket because they're all a bunch of godless, power crazed loons who would offer up their grandmother's necks for the chopping block if it would further their agenda--or their children's necks. In a heartbeat.

I'm not voting for a former first lady who can't clarify her position as anything other than a spurned wife while in the White House, who believes in the Communist Manifesto, who has mastered the art of concealment and shredding while taking illegal money and who whines when she's asked a "difficult" question regarding policy--all before stripping both the Arkansas governor's mansion and the White House of furniture and goods at the taxpayer expense. A thief and liar. And someone who claims she didn't know about her husband's peccadilloes, someone so clueless, is not someone who has the necessary "instincts" to run a country.

I'm not voting for a closet muslim who refuses to give proper respect to either our flag or our national anthem, wants to "prove" his patriotism by this lack of respect, has no experience beyond a few years in Washington and editing the Harvard Law Review and who has no substance to fill his suit. However, he's become very good at land scams and insider trading.

I'm not voting for a metrosexual who has to hide behind his sick wife's skirts to fight his battles for him, who pledges to help the poor while indulging in spa days and $400 haircuts--and who pretends to channel the voices of distressed infants in their mother's wombs to juries.

I'm not voting for a man on his 3rd marriage who registers as a Republican yet acts like a liberal while bragging about his Catholicism and flaunting his disregard for his own faith--I don't care how he acted during 9/11--his personal life is a train wreck and if he can't get control of his personal life, how the HELL can he run a country?

I'm not voting for a man who claims to be a Christian minister, who again registers as a Republican yet taxes people outrageously and would give tax/college tuition breaks to illegals while ignoring the needs of American citizens, one who also dipped into public funds for his private spending. What IS it about that Arkansas water?

I'm not voting for a man who claims he's conservative--but his record shows it's only a "recent" conversion--after allowing same sex marriages in Massachusetts and flip-flopping on the abortion issue. Yes, he balanced the budget there. Yes, he ran the SLC Olympic games (under tremendous scandal). However, now he's decided to "parse" what he's "seen" as far as who marched with whom in the civil rights marches--and sounds much too Clintonian in his justifications (define "IS"). And, while trying to be all things to all people, he's decided to emulate another democrat, JFK, in his "belief" statement.

Well, people, I have many mormon relatives and friends. If the above weren't enough, I find, deep down, against all open-mindedness I thought I had regarding religion, I find I am indeed offended by the mormon belief system and can not, in good conscience, vote for THIS particular mormon. Most mormons are well meaning people--very family and community oriented, they pull together with each other during good times and bad. However, those who have reached a certain point in the hierarchy? I don't now nor will I ever trust them, whether they be named Romney or Reid.

I haven't ruled out voting for McCain--he was in fact my choice when he ran against Bush.

Time changes things, though. While McCain is an admirable man with many admirable traits, he isn't presidential material. His stance on immigration is wrong and he is intractable in that area. McCain-Feingold didn't do him any favors, either. Faced with the enemy we are facing--and will be facing for a very long time--he is not the hard-core leader we need because of his personal experiences as a POW. He would simply be ineffective and we need leadership, not ineffectiveness.

I haven't ruled out Thompson yet either; however, he needs to get off his butt and DO something. He has not shown the dynamics needed--dynamics we know are there--to convince people he would be an effective leader in this time of need.

Paul is a loon and Kucinich is right there with him--they need to take up residence together on that spaceship. Needless to say, neither is getting my vote. I MAY have considered some of Paul's policies before he showed his complete screwiness, but his simple isolationism in the face of the extremism we're fighting is completely disingenuous and guaranteed to put this country into instant third-world country status.

Then we have the wanna-be's, those who want to rule by proxy.

Those like Gore and his global warming hysteria. How can someone so blatantly anti-American, so blatantly broken by living in his father's shadow, so utterly spoiled and whiny, have such an impact on America? How is he able to pull the wool over so many people's eyes? Two reasons--one, they want to be fooled and two, they are just as spoiled, idiotic and whiny as he is and want to believe the world revolves around them. Unfortunately, he is dangerous to the economy of this country by his short-sightedness, hypocrisy and greed.

Get it through your heads, people--global warming is a scam--period. The earth has been going through warming and cooling periods since time immemorial. There's not a damn thing man can do to change it, short of sanctioning the sun, the axis tilt, etc. And that, realistically speaking, isn't going to happen. So, pull your heads out of your asses and instead of buying those carbon offsets to enrich Gore even further, invest in some common sense.

Now that's not to say you can't do things yourself to save yourself some money and help keep things nice--weatherstrip your home (saves on power bills), if you can afford it and you live somewhere it's feasible, invest in solar heating and cooling (I can't afford it or I would--living in the Southwest, we have an average of 300 sunny days a year), perform periodic maintennance on your vehicle, plan your trips to save gas--all of that is good and helps save money in the long run protecting YOUR resources while doing your part. But for heaven's sake, what's being advocated by Gore and his rabid, frothing band of fools is ridiculous at best.

Oh and along those lines? Who's going to disband the EPA? Because in order to wean ourselves off foreign oil, as all you libtards are screaming for, we're going to have to upset some caribou in Alaska, some fish in the Gulf and some deer in the Rockies. You plain can't have it both ways. Then we can be independent of foreign sources. While we're at it, who's going to monitor the mercury levels in the landfills when all those mercury filled lightbulbs (those we're going to have to use instead of incandescents) hit those landfills? Hmmm? Did y'all think about that?

All part of the rule by proxy greed of Gore and you lemmings have fallen for it.

All that being said, who is going to distinguish themselves by facing the situation in Pakistan? Who is going to address this issue? Who has a plan? Who will be the leader we need?

Who, then, will distinguish themselves as the "Leader of the Pack"?

Below is a link I happened to find while searching for an appropriate picture. It revealed to me my ideal candidate is none other than.....Duncan Hunter. Take a visit, take the survey. You may surprise yourself.

In the meantime, start demanding some seriousness from the candidates regarding foreign policy in the wake of the Bhutto assassination, the craziness of global warming, the issues of independence from foreign oil and the mercury alone in the landfills against the screeching of the church of gore--real issues, real answers.

Not this pablum you're insisting on force feeding us.
