I hate Rinos. I really really really really really really hate Rinos. These are the ones who are responsible for destroying the Republican Party. These are the ones who we think of when we talk about the conservative party being dead. We need to perform a Rinoectomy on the Republican Party immediately.The post commented on was about the Gang of Ten either inadvertently or purposefully trying to derail the #dontgo movement that has the Leftinistra on the run and on the defensive. The Movement exposed to the American People just who and what the alleged "democrats" stand for. It has also unearthed some RINOs.
A hit piece on Vets for Freedom's Back to Iraq trip came out today posted on both Salon.com and the Huff Po. It's two titles are "Embedded Reporters or Republican activists?" and "Obama-attacking, Pro-McCain group gets free trip to Iraq" the first is a reasonable construct, the second is a horseshit lie. I don't hold the writer, Alex Koppelman, responsible for the titles, but he is surely responsible for the innuendo and slurs contained in the piece. Upon reading it this morning I danced a little jig, because I knew the attack was coming and I couldn't believe how weak it was. But since it will get huge play in the fever swamps I soldiered up and began the rebuttal. I contacted the two sources he quoted, Chris Hanson of U of Maryland and Kelly McBribe of Poynter Institute. I will advise once I have spoken with them. I also contacted Alex himself and he was courteous enough to call me. The problem was, he wanted to talk off the record. I know, I laughed myself, a journo who won't go on the record with a knuckledragger like me. He said he had to consult his editor and they determined a live conversation taped so neither of us could be mis-quoted, was far too dangerous. Instead could I email some questions. Heh. [...]And nothing is said of the Nanna from Pink City as she gallivants across the country on America's dime in her tax-paid-for Big Bird book tour? Do you know how much that cost the American People? I sure wish I could spend close to $50K on a private airliner. Then again, there could very well be valid reasons for Speakerless Oompa Loompelosi to run away and Yid With Lid has those documented. In short, here is the brief synopsis: She went to buy an air pressure gage for her tires; Personally autographing each copy of her book that comes off the press; Bret Farve. You notice that the closure of Congress coincided with Bret Farve showing up at Packer Training Camp; American Idol Auditions. Simon, Paula and Randy are choosing new contestants; Hey The Olympics Are On; Face Lift. She is secretly having a face lift and needs the recovery time. Sounds good to me. Everything else just doesn't make any sense.

The United States has told Russia to withdraw its forces from US ally Georgia and stop its air attacks on the tiny Caucasus state following fighting in the breakaway region of South Ossetia. [...]That isn't good.
Why is it that just when we have the Leftinistra over a barrel - no pun intended - we have moron RINO idjits mukking it all up? Why is that?This "Gang of 10" announced a "sweeping" and "bipartisan" energy plan to break Washington's energy "stalemate." What they did was throw every vulnerable Democrat, and Mr. Obama, a life preserver.This is just unbelievable. It really is truly retarded this Gang of 10. And it is very active.
That's because the plan is a Democratic giveaway. New production on offshore federal lands is left to state legislatures, and then in only four coastal states. The regulatory hurdles are huge. And the bill bars drilling within 50 miles of the coast -- putting off limits some of the most productive areas. Alaska's oil-rich Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is still a no-go.
The highlight is instead $84 billion in tax credits, subsidies and federal handouts for alternative fuels and renewables. The Gang of 10 intends to pay for all this in part by raising taxes on . . . oil companies! The Sierra Club couldn't have penned it better. And so the Republican Five has potentially given antidrilling Democrats the political cover they need to neutralize energy through November.
Politics has its puzzling moments. John McCain and most of the GOP experienced one late last week. That was when five of their own set about dismantling the best issue Republicans have in the upcoming election. [...]Idiots. Designator is H.R. 6566
[...] Don Surber whom I totally enjoy reading is doing some Fact Finding Missions of his own, Doug Ross is compiling The List of Czarbama gaffes and flip flops - good luck keeping up with that one, Doug - dip dunk and Chief UFO Czar himself Alfred E Neuman, I mean Dennis Kucinich, is still going after that impeachment thing and was told that he was a nut case ("the tone of these deliberations is slightly demented" so said Rabkin) and John Bolton saying that Obama was from a different planet really threw me for a loop. I don't get it. [...]OK. SO I was referring to Dennis Kucinich. It's still funny, though, isn't it? Enjoy the picture.
9.) Democrats are committed to helping families across America who struggle to pay their home heating bills during the winter months through the LIHEAP program. Will House Republicans support it? Will Senate Republicans stop blocking it? Will John McCain vote for it? And will President Bush sign it?
FYI, LIHEAP is appropriately named...a heap of manure. It is one more in a long list of socialist programs, none of which have ever resulted in anything positive except to increase taxes and burdens of the American People. It is a give-away program to replace common sense and that is why the COnservatives will not support it.
Dear San Fran: the answer lies in INCREASING supply and REDUCING the price. Period. Simple economics, San Fran. Simple economics. And it has been the historic fact that the DEMOCRATS have fought for over 30+ years to reduce the costs of fuel at the pumps. That is a cold, hard fact which is easily proved. You have been had by your own rhetoric. It has come to a head and must be festering puss-pod of the DNC will have to be lanced and the boil treated for infection. The lancing will be accomplished on election day.
An affidavit filed by a Secret Service agent in U.S. District Court claims that Raymond Hunter Geisel, of Marathon, Florida, threatened to "kill, kidnap and cause bodily harm upon a major candidate for president of the United States, that is, Senator Barack Obama."Amazing. This guy needs to be locked up forever.
A search of Geisel's vehicle and a hotel room in Miami, where Geisel was attending a bail bondsman training class, found a 9-mm handgun, ammunition that included armor-piercing and rifle bullets, police-style emergency lights, body armor, a machete and two canisters of tear gas, among other military-style items, according to the document.
Agents say that classmates of Geisel reported that, between July 25-28, Geisel used a racial slur toward Obama and said "if he gets elected, I'll assassinate him myself."
A classmate said that, one day after class, she also heard Geisel say "that he hated George W. Bush and that he wanted to put a bullet in the president’s head."
[...] The GOP effort has triggered strong reactions from Democrats this week. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.), the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and the Democratic National Committee issued releases Wednesday that mocked the Republican energy plan. [END]Strong reactions? I would call it massive whining and Nanna's "rebuke" was so packed full of idiocy even some moonbats wondered what it was she said exactly. When a moonbat gets confused, something is very terribly wrong someplace.
[...] Liberals will become more liberal and more dismissive of conservatives and vice versa. The result will undoubtedly be that the culture war will increase in passion and severity. [END]The question is, who will back down first? The GOP has backed down since RWR was in office time and time again and the country is now nearly split 50-50. We cannot afford to back down one millimeter...EVER again.
The Democrats find themselves on the wrong side of the most important issue to Americans right now. Now is not the time for a compromise. Its time to keep applying pressure. [...]That would be an almost there type a thing and I will take this to its proper place; the Leftinistra have been on the wrong side of every issue since GWB beat them in two elections. The Leftinistra have placed the nation at risk due to their "udder" hatred of GWB. The Leftinistra have placed the nation at risk and have been directly the cause of Troop casualties all for the sake of political aspirations fomented by their "udder" hatred of GWB. Period. End of discussion. It isn't time to apply more pressure...it is time to destroy them for decades and decades. Expose them for what they are...Marxists and Control Freaks. Period. End of discussion.
"I will tell you that I don't believe in gay marriage, but I do think that people who are gay and lesbian should be treated with dignity and respect and that the state should not discriminate against them," said Obama on Sunday. "So, I believe in civil unions that allow a same-sex couple to visit each other in a hospital or transfer property to each other. I don't think it should be called marriage, but I think that it is a legal right that they should have that is recognized by the state. If people find that controversial then I would just refer them to the Sermon on the Mount, which I think is, in my mind, for my faith, more central than an obscure passage in Romans. That's my view."Setting aside for a few moments the colossal flipping and flopping and holding several stands of all sides of any particular issue mentioned above, just what in the hell did he say? I have run through the video many times now and I have yet to discover what his view is.
She was interviewed by the Washington Compost today and the entire transcript is offered up here. In this interview, she, Nanna, exposed her true "isms". In the image to the left, one will find Nanna's Three C's that Nanna says she espouses. When I read this transcript, everything I read after this point is not computing. I will have to digest this in full before I can MoveOn.Fargo, North Dakota: Do you believe that members of the US House should vote the way their constituents want them to vote?She sure can speak those buzz words like Ron Paul can, doesn't she? Let us parse this.
Nancy Pelosi: I always encourage incoming Members of Congress to follow the three Cs - the Constitution, their conscience, and their constituents - and remind them that their title and their job description are the same: representative.
It is up to each elected official to balance their responsibilities to the three Cs and to explain that balance to their constituents. We will not always agree with our elected officials 100% of the time, but we can expect them to do what they believe is right.
Earlier today, I was privileged to talk to a few dozen bloggers on a conference call put together by Eric Odom, one of the masterminds behind #dontgo. While Eric was asking me a question, a thought struck me. August has actually been somewhat of a critical month in the last few elections, and #dontgo could make it again this time.So true that is and Czarbama isn't helping any with his several positions he holds at the same time, depending upon where he is in the speech he is giving at the time. I can hardly wait for the debates...if Czarbama shoes up for them that is.
It was on August 11, 2006 that George Allen, cruising to re-election, made the Macaca gaffe. Initially, Allen didn't take too big a hit in the polls -- but after issuing what must have been a dozen different apologies and enduring three consecutive weeks of Washington Post hit jobs, Jim Webb was made competitive -- and the Senate was lost. [...]
Former cheerleaders express concern over who the "man behind the curtain" really is.No doubt. Hell. Even he doesn't know who is is. He hides behind many curtains and he gets confused when you question his mentor collection: the ones he throws under the bus when each and every one are revealed to be either communists or crooks or unrepentant domestic terrorists.
[...] And here is a hint of how bad the Democrats actually look: Congress has passed energy legislation in some form or another every year over the past eight years, But somehow in 2008, when gas has risen above $4 a gallon and a barrel of oil is at a record-high cost, the Democratic leadership is all of a sudden unwilling to have energy votes. The Democrats' position doesn't pass the smell test. The reason no votes are being allowed is because many of the rank-and-file Democrats will vote yes on removing the moratorium on offshore drilling and vote yes on leasing the land for oil and gas exploration. [...]OOPS...
[...] Don't you love that? Who cares about "principles" and truth? Pelosi is telling Democrats to go ahead and say they are for drilling to get re-elected because since Democrats will be in charge, they can stop it anyway.We can add criminally negligent in that they willfully swear their Oaths of Service under false pretenses. So much for the "most open CONgress in history" and the "most ethical CONgress in history", eh Nanna?
God, I hope the American people are paying attention to this blatant attempt to lie to them in order to win and then do the opposite of what they promised to get elected.
Politicians in general are not the most honest people, but the Democratic leadership (including Obama) right now give new meaning to the word dishonest. [END]
Big Oil is lining the pockets of Republicans with money, hoping to leverage the public's concern over high gasoline prices into a land grab. Oil interests already have millions of acres under lease which they aren't exploring, but of course the greedy bastards want more.The poor things really believe that crap. Using that same logic, I suppose the Goracle should be in the same category. But, he is a fellow Leftinistra and I guess it is OK for HIS pockets to be lined with Big Oil but live in a home that isn't one-tenth the "green home" that the GWB ranch in Crawford Texas is. The double standards of these cretins is astounding. The idiots simply HATE capitalism and seem to pretend to be able to think and surmise from their intellectual vacuum that socialism is better. Yep. Truth and history mean nothing to the fools on the left.
8-3-08 A Tucson Sector Border Patrol agent was held at gunpoint by the Mexican military last night south of Ajo. Mexican military personnel crossed over the border and pointed rifles at him. Backup units arrived from the Ajo Border Patrol station, and the Mexican military personnel eventually returned to Mexico. Unfortunately, this sort of behavior by Mexican military personnel has been going on for years. They are never held accountable, and the United States government will undoubtedly brush this off as another case of "Oh well, they didn't know they were in the United States." A few years ago the Mexican military went a step further and put a .50 calibre rifle round through the rear window of a Border Patrol agent's patrol vehicle south of Ajo. Nothing was ever done. Nobody was ever held accountable. Particularly galling is the fact that the Mexican military often pulls these stunts in Humvees donated to them by the American taxpayers (although they were apparently on foot this time). We note that Border Patrol agents have historically driven worn-out, junk vehicles.Simply amazing folks. And, quite dangerous.
We will withhold further comment on this incident until we see how our leaders handle it. We don't have much confidence in most of them.
It is fortunate that this incident didn't end in a very ugly gunfight.
[...] Support for House Republicans has also been active on Twitter, an online micro-blogging service composed of short text messages. The tag “#dontgo” set up by Odom and Ruffini and other activists late last week is currently one of the most popular topics being tracked on search.twitter.com. In addition to the new Web site, Rep. Eric Cantor of Virginia has launched an online petition which has garnered more than ten thousand online signatures so far, according to information available on callbackcongress.com.The Next Right has stated that this is the "turning point" for the Conservative Movement and it is no wonder that the once main stream media has been replaced by the Main Street Media.
The House GOP protest has caught the attention of liberal group MoveOn.org. The powerful liberal lobbying group is scheduled to hold a rally on Capitol Hill late Tuesday afternoon.
Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who led the Republican effort to take control of Congress in 1994, has also announced he will be meet and hold a press conference with House Republicans Wednesday at the Capitol. [END]
Someone explain to me why this is not considered an attack ad. Were it the McCain campaign discussing how much money Barry gets from left wing fringe groups (like the $347K from MoveOn), or, say $20 million from lawyers, or even the $627K he got from Goldman Sachs, a registered lobbying group, the media would be screaming about it being a dishonest, disingenuous, sleazy, slimy attack ad. But, as the old Bill Cosby joke, Barry is like a newborn: his poop don't stink. [...]Sure it does. I can smell the cretin from here in Texas!

I saw this late last night and once again, Atlas Shrugs is on top of things:
Aafia Siddiqui is a MIT-trained neuroscientist who married a top Al Qaeda operative who intended to blow up gas stations or poison water reservoirs in the United States.. She is a possible associate of Majid Khan and she is believed to have links to Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, alleged mastermind of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. She allegedly arranged travel documents for another suspected terrorist. [...]
California Democrat Nancy Pelosi may be trying to save the planet - but the rank and file in her party increasingly are just trying to save their political hides when it comes to gas prices as Republicans apply more and more rhetorical muscle.Sorry, Nanny. Ain't gonna happen. Too little too late and you have shot your wad. Nice try, though. She and her kind have thrown so many strawmen, scarecrows and bogeymen, the American People are just plain sick of her ignorant leadership - if you can call it that. And, the New York Post wants to know why everyone is for drilling now all of a sudden...good question.
But what looks like intraparty tension on the surface is part of an intentional strategy in which Pelosi takes the heat on energy policy, while behind the scenes she's encouraging vulnerable Democrats to express their independence if it helps them politically, according to Democratic aides on and off Capitol Hill.
Pelosi's gambit rests on one big assumption: that Democrats will own Washington after the election and will be able to craft a sweeping energy policy that is heavy on conservation and fuel alternatives while allowing for some new oil drilling. Democrats see no need to make major concessions on energy policy with a party poised to lose seats in both chambers in just three months - even if recess-averse Republicans continue to pound away on the issue. [...]
An inability to comprehend context appears to have broken out among the Leftosphere. Apparently, none of our colleagues on the port side of the blogosphere can figure out why Barack Obama's suggestion that the energy crisis could be solved through tire inflation and tune-ups was such a gaffe, or why the John McCain campaign's distribution of pressure gauges skewers Obama. One blogger goes so far as to point out that the Bush administration actually recommends that motorists inflate tires properly for efficient use of gasoline. [...]Gee. They have been reading us lately. Good. The idiots on the left just don't get the simple things. I will leave the imagination and the nuance of retarded libtards up to the reader.
Democrats offered a real solution to high energy prices that would bring immediate relief within 10 days by forcing the President to free our oil from the nation's stockpile. The Republicans propose to giveaway public lands to Big Oil, which will not immediately reduce the price at the pump and save Americans only 2 cents 10 years from now. This Republican hoax is unworthy of the serious debate we must have to reduce the price at the pump and promote energy independence. [...]What an idiot. The "hoax" is your intelligence you lying piece of crap! YOU promised the American People LOWER fuel costs in your campaigns of 2006 and it has DOUBLED since then. Is twice as much less than the original? Where did you go to school to learn that? And, your "release the STRATEGIC oil reserve" is only good for MAYBE a week, moron. I cannot believe that there are idiots that will swallow her tripish stupidity.
