How's that 'Hopey/Changey' thing...

...workin' out for ya, America?

Four weeks to go.

November 2, 2010 MUST mark the beginning of the end of America's ill-thought out and disastrous experiment with the no-resumé socialist-in-chief and his socialist cohorts in the Congress.

Full-screen the video and mark your sample ballots!



Jimmy Carter was simply a buffoon, who gave us such wasteful and unneeded things as the Department of Education and the Department of Energy.

Obama's not just a buffoon -- a tool of his handlers and enablers, he is the most dangerous man to have occupied the oval office in our history... hell-bent upon "fundamentally changing" the United States of America.  Between taking over automobile manufacturing, screwing shareholders in both General Motors and Chrysler in order to GIVE shares in those now-government-owned companies to UNIONS, taking over the banking industry, destroying the healthcare industry, increasing the deficit six-fold in less than 18 months, and on and on and on...

...this poseur is destroying the very foundation upon which our beloved nation is built.

November or never, folks.

Karl Rove a.k.a. bitter neocon...

Here's Karl Rove, bitter that the establishment RINO in Delaware lost, trashing Christine O'Donnell and making my case from my last post.

Rove sounds more like that wretched little "man," Keith Olbermann, than a Republican.  What an arrogant, pompous ass...

In the space of less than four minutes, Rove said --

• "...this is the inexplicable one [about O'Donnell's victory]..."
• "...she's dealt a defeat to one of the state's longest and best known and thought to be most beloved political figures..."
• "...we have a true upset by somebody with little money, little track record..."
• "...one thing that Christine O'Donnell is now going to have to answer in the general election that she didn't have to answer in the primary is her own checkered background..."
• "...I've met her... I've gotta tell ya I wasn't frankly impressed as her [sic], you know, abilities as a candidate..."
• "...these serious questions about how does she make her living, why did she mislead voters about her college education, how come it took her nearly two decades to pay her college bill so she could get her college degree?..."
• "...how did she make a living, why did she sue a well-known and well thought-of conservative think tank?..."
• "...it does conservatives little good to support candidates who, at the end of the day, while they may be conservative in their public statements, do not evince the characteristics of rectitude and truthfulness and sincerity and character that the voters are looking for... "
• "...we'll see how she can answer these questions; she sure as heck didn't answer 'em thus far on the campaign..."
• "...did you ask her about the people who are following her home to her headquarters and how she's checked each night in the bushes?..."
• "...there's just a lot of nutty things she's been sayin'..."
• "...we were lookin' at 8 to 9 seats in the Senate; we're now lookin' at 7 to 8..."
• "...this is not a race we're gonna be able to win."

Wow.  Time for Rove to join other bitter losers like Arlen Specter, Charlie Crist, Lisa Murkowski, Sue Lowden, et al, and crawl back under their "establishment Republican" rock.  It is embarrassing to have these whiners out in the open.  "Republicans" like these are the reason I stopped giving money to "Republican" causes back in the 1990s.

Sean Hannity, who anyone who knows me knows I haven't much use for, surprisingly holds his ground.

November or never...

Lord help me...

...I may be turning into one of "them."

You know -- "them."  A conservative Republican who puts conservative principles ahead of so-called "Republican wins."  One of "them," like those whom I've excoriated from Free Republic for being narrow-minded and singularly-focused.

I've always maintained that I'd rather see "moderate" Republicans (read: RINOs) like the Maine twins, Susan Collins and Olympia Snowe, or Lindsay Grahmnesty, or "maverick" John McCain with "Rs" behind their names elected rather than having folks with "Ds" behind their names occupying the various seats of power.  Kind of like holding my nose to vote for McCain two years ago... or George W. Bush (twice), or Bob Dole, or George H.W. Bush... heck -- the last person I felt good about voting for was Ronald Reagan.

After witnessing the Republican Party's shameful behavior in the Delaware Senatorial primary race between a Democrat pretending to be a Republican (Mike Castle, the "establishment favorite") and an honest-to-goodness conservative candidate, (Christine O'Donnell), I can't take it anymore.

To hell with RINOs.

The Republican Party announced BEFORE TODAY'S PRIMARY in Delaware that, should O'Donnell defeat THEIR favorite, Castle, that they (the Republican party) would NOT support her.  The Republican Party in Delaware launched a last-minute robo-call smear campaign against O'Donnell.  Call me overly simplistic, but I always thought that a political party's place was to present candidates to the electorate and, may the best man or woman win. Unless there was an incumbent, I always thought the "party" stayed out of the "endorsing business" until after the primary election. Well... maybe not even then. I remember when the Democrat party did NOT "take sides" when Robert F. Kennedy challenged the then-sitting President, Lyndon B. Johnson...


But this?  This blatant favoritism?  The threats of non-support?  This "thumb-in-the-eye" to those "little people" -- you know... the voters, who actually bestow upon these people the power they so-desperately crave is just too much.

I've had it.  Time to purge the Republican Party of these RINOs.

The "establishment" said that Ronald Reagan was unelectable -- he was elected twice, brought the nation back from the ruin that was Jimmy Carter's disastrous one-term Presidency, ushered in a new era of prosperity with a combination of tax cuts and less government regulation (a prosperity that lasted nearly 20 years -- Bill Clinton should be thankful) and... oh, by the way... did I mention that he and his policies were directly responsible for causing the collapse of the former Soviet Union, the end of the Cold War, and the reunification of Germany while he was busy fixing the mess left by Carter?  And, unlike the current empty suit in the White House, Reagan didn't spend his time whining about the "mess" he'd "inherited" from the previous President -- he just went about fixing it.

Oh... and he inspired an entire generation of formerly uninvolved citizens to be proud to be Americans again.

Not bad for someone who was "unelectable," eh?

Now the talking heads (mostly "neocon" Republicans like Karl Rove, Charles Krauthammer, Bill Kristol, and the like) are whining about how O'Donnell cannot possibly win in the general election in a little more than a month and a half; how the "selfish" and "angry" voters in Delaware just guaranteed a Democrat victory, come November, because of their uneducated choice of candidate for the United States Senate.

Like the way Martha Coakley defeated Scott Brown in Massachusetts last January?  Oh.  Wait.  That's right.  Scott Brown won, didn't he?

Don't buy the spoiled-sport nonsense from the "establishment" Republicans -- Christine O'Donnell IS eminently electable in November... the Republican "powers that be" just have their collective panties in a knot because they didn't get their way in the primary race.  Check their candidate, Mike Castle's voting record in the House of Representatives -- looks like a lot more of a Democrat than a Republican, that's for sure.

What's funny is that "establishment" Republicans insist that Republican candidates must be "moderate" in order to win elections.  You couldn't get much more "moderate" than John McCain, and Barack Obama cleaned his clock two years ago.  George W. Bush ran as a "moderate" Republican, and there has never been more of a "big government" Republican President in the history of the nation.  Bush strayed from the values that have historically been Republican, and eked out a victory over Al Gore in the Electoral College in 2000 and did only slightly better in 2004 against John ("did I mention that I served in Vietnam?") Kerry.

I think that when these power brokers emphasize the "need" for Republican candidates to be "moderate," what they are really doing is admitting defeat unless they field a slate of candidates who are, in reality, "Democrat lite."  Disgusting.  We are a center-right nation, with a large majority of our citizens having strong, Judeo-Christian, conservative values.  There is no need to field "Democrat lite" candidates in order for Republicans to win elections.  Rather, the Republican Party needs to field and support candidates who appeal to the broad voter base that the "inside the beltway" crowd generally despise.

Meanwhile, Republican candidates that actually embrace conservative values, like Ronald Reagan did over thirty years ago, are loved by the people and they win elections.  The "power brokers" don't like that, though -- those Republicans are too independent for their tastes.

Oh...

As an aside about Christine O'Donnell -- if she is so "unelectable," why was she the Republican party's nominee to face Joe Biden in 2008?  Biden wiped her out but then... he kindof outspent her, though --

$4,907,000 to $116,000

Given the sour mood of the electorate over the direction the Democrats have taken the country since winning back power in the 2006 elections, and adding to their totals in 2008, don't be surprised if Christine O'Donnell -- despite what the neocons say -- prevails on November 2nd.  Even Chris Matthews is worried that she will win.

After the elections, I think we need a thorough, top-to-bottom housecleaning of the Republican Party, starting with the Delaware Republican Party, whose head said that Christine O'Donnell is unelectable and that she "...couldn't win a race for dogcatcher."

November or never...

Shock and Awe Campaign Against the Democrats...

The folks at the National Republican Senatorial Committee seem to really be coalescing on a united (and unifying) theme for the upcoming election.

It's kind of nice to be fighting back, eh?

As before -- full-screen it, and enjoy.

Re-writing left-wing lunacy...

I happened upon a left-wing whack-a-doodle site this morning called Alternet.org which has an article on the "Top 10 Right-Wing Conspiracy Theories."

This is simply astounding...

The "conspiracy theories" listed were ALL originally created BY THE LEFT, and they were concerning the eeeeeeeeeeevil George W. Bush and his eeeeeeeeevil intentions...

Here, for your enjoyment, the 10 former "left-wing" conspiracies now miraculously attributed to the "right-wing:"

# 10 - The North American Union

Now allegedly a "right-wing conspiracy theory," this theory gained considerable traction in 2005 (quick!  who was President then?  10 points if you answered George W. Bush... 50 points if you answered the eeeeeeevil George W. Bush).  The premise was that the eeeeeeeeevil Bush (or, as those purveyors of fun and good cheer on the left liked to call him, Bush & Co., BushCo, Bushitler, Dubya, Baby Bush, King George, Dumbo, the chimp, shrub, etc.) was conspiring to create a secret "North American Union" between the United States, Canada, and Mexico, loosely based upon the now-failing European Union.  The kooks were even convinced that a gigantic (somehow still secret, though...) combination road/rail system was going to cut a huge swath -- north to south -- connecting Canada to Mexico through the United States.  They even warned that our currency was going to be thrown out, replaced by (what they claimed to be the still-secret-but-somehow-they-got-their-hands-on-the-plan) the "Amero." 

Of course, nothing of the sort took place, so this original invention of the left has now been conveniently converted -- by the same left that created it -- into a "right-wing conspiracy theory."  Good Lord...


# 9 - The Federal Reserve Conspiracy

There is no "conspiracy theory" by the "right-wing" regarding The Fed -- it was one of the most damaging things that "progressive" President, Woodrow Wilson, inflicted upon our country 97 years ago.  The Fed needs to be gotten rid of.  There have been calls ranging from  left-wing loons such as commentator Sam Donaldson to right-wing loons like Ron Paul to do just that -- eliminate The Fed.


# 8 - HAARP

The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (abbreviated as HAARP) is a joint research venture funded by the United States Air Force, the United States Navy, the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and the University of Alaska.  For years, conspiracy nuts on the left have been claiming that it is really a "secret" government program to control the weather, and/or to create earthquakes, and/or is a "secret directed energy weapon."  40-something year-old unemployed liberal men, blogging in their underpants from their mommies' basements, have been warning us about the eeeeeeeeevils of HAARP since early in the Bush Administration.


# 7 - Population Control

The left-wing loons' most recent outcry about this is the "conspiracy" by the government and British Petroleum to "kill millions" in the Gulf Coast region of the United States.  Check any number of left-wing sites for confirmation of this.  Caution:  you will need to shower after visiting those sites -- the hatred they contain is frightening.


# 6 - 9/11 As A Government Plot

Just check this out for your yourself.  The co-called "9/11 truthers" are most certainly NOT folks on the "right;" they are all left-wing loons... and Bush-haters.


# 5 - Gun Confiscations

I don't think this is a "conspiracy theory by the right-wing."  Rather, the idea expresses valid concerns by Second Amendment supporters over the "gun control" schemes promoted on the left by such prominent Democrats as President Barack Obama, Senator Charles Schumer (D-NY), Senator John Kerry (D-MA), Senator Jack Reed (D-RI), Senator Diane Feinstein (D-CA), new Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan, new Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, Chicago Mayor Richard Daley (D)... are you getting the picture yet?  No "conspiracy" here -- just FACT.  Democrats ultimately want even more control and to increase their power, and, if not stopped, will disarm Americans in order to do so.


# 4 - Foreign Troops on U.S. Soil

I'll almost concede this one.  There has long been concern by patriotic, conservative Americans over the prospect of United Nations' "troops" possibly being deployed in the United States.  In 2009, under socialist -- er., Marxist -- er, communist -- er, Democrat President Barack Obama, FEMA held joint exercises with the United States military and militaries from Australia, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Germany, several African nations, and China on terrorism prevention... on American soil.  If being concerned about this makes me a "right-wing conspiracy theorist," I'll confess to being one... in this instance.


# 3 - FEMA Concentration Camps

One of my all-time favorites.  According to the left-wing whackos, who have been promoting this conspiracy theory almost from the time that they began whining about George W. Bush being selected, not elected in 2000, the eeeeeeeeeeeeevil George W. Bush (led by his equally eeeeeeevil puppet master, Dick Cheney) ordered the construction of secret FEMA concentration camps by the eeeeeeeeeevil Halliburton company, into which, it is assumed, Bush's detractors would be crammed, taken from their homes (most likely in the dead of night), herded aboard the "107,200 AutoMax Prison Cars" -- concentration camp rail cars -- allegedly ordered by FEMA from "Gunderson Steel," and taken away... never to be heard from again.

I am not making this up.  Google "automax prison cars" or "auto max prison cars."  Up will come links to some of the most left-wing sites on the internet... the usual suspects -- indymedia.org, prisonplanet.com, dailykos.com, rense.com, democraticunderground.com, rumormillnews.com, a blog called shadowgovernment, and on and on.  The common thread here?  Those sites are all left-wing loon, pro Democrat sites.  Although... some seem to be supporting Obama less and less these days as they moan about him not doing enough to speed the destruction of our Nation by the introduction and implementation of even more socialist/communist concepts to our beloved country.

Now that a socialist Democrat is President, this particular "conspiracy theory" has suddenly morphed from its origins as left-wing nonsense into newly-discovered, alleged right-wing nonsense.


# 2 - Martial Law

This was a HUGE concern among the left-wing underwear-clad basement bloggers throughout the entire eight years of the George W. Bush administration.  Left-wing sites from Democratic Underground, to Jeff Rense, to those fun-lovin' Kos-kids at the Daily Kos, to the huff 'n puffers at Huffington Post... the eeeeeeevil George W. Bush was going to declare martial law because of "terrorism," suspend the 2004, no... 2006, no... 2008 elections, and become the dictator of the United States of America.

Inconveniently for the proponents of this idiocy, the elections went ahead, just as scheduled.  Bush completed his two terms as President, a new President was elected, and the peaceful transfer of power took place, undeterred and unmarred, as it always has since the founding of the nation, from the outgoing President to the new.

No problem for the lefties, though.  Now that Obama is President, they simply ignore that this was a basic "theory," posited and promoted by them for nearly eight years, and simply claim that it is now a "right-wing conspiracy theory."


# 1 - Chemtrails

Another favorite, long-time left-wing conspiracy theory.  Google "chemtrails" and see how many "hits" you get that you would describe as "right wing"  (vs. hits you would describe as "left-wing").  I just googled it myself, and google showed 3,250,000 results for that word.  Right up there at the top you will again get links to the "usual suspects" -- Rense, Conspiracy Planet, shameless self-promoter Alex Jones and his la-la-land "Prison Planet" website (all three of which, on top of being extremely left-wing and Democrat-promoting, are virulently anti-Semitic), HuffPo, Daily Kos, RumorMillNews, and scores of links to New Age, left-wing psycho-babble sites, some going on and on about "faction X" and "faction Y" fighting for control of "the New World Order."  Lots of UFO stuff thrown in there, for good measure.  I guess the lefties think it enhances their credibility...

Suddenly the "issue" of "chemtrails" has been transformed from its origins as a left-wing kook theory to a "right-wing conspiracy theory."


Just another day in Paradise, eh?

I am surfing to the edges of the internet so that...

...you won't have to.    ;-)

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to take a shower.

A very looooooooong shower.......  ;-)

The video speaks for itself...

I've often posted long-winded musings here (some have said diatribes) in the short time that I've had this blog.

I've come across a video that speaks far more eloquently than I ever could to the current state of affairs as led by our socialist minders in Washington DC (and their nanny-state political wannabe/fellow travellers at the State level).

The video comes from the Republican Study Committee, a conservative group of over 115 Republican members of Congress whose chairman is Georgia Congressman, Dr. Tom Price. Looks like Republican naysayers can no longer say that the GOP isn't spreading the conservative message. This short video showcases the very palpable (even frightening) differences between our ruling Democrats and the Constitutional principles embraced by most Republicans on the other side. At the risk of sounding overly-dramatic, the video spotlights the differences between good and evil...

Full-screen it and prepare to start taking our country back in a little more than 80 days ~



As an aside -- Ronald Reagan was the last person that I voted for in a Presidential election that I didn't have to hold my nose while so-doing.

November or never...

Lightning strikes?

Yumpin' yiminy, Batman!

The other day in a post here about Hollywood nitwit, Spike Lee, my musings devolved to include the following paragraph:

Yes... just last week, the Obama Administration had to backtrack as Federal scientists (and we all know where they get their paychecks) announced that three quarters of the spilled oil is gone -- removed by various natural and/or artificial means. Most beaches are clear, although some marshes do remain fouled. Sea creatures are flourishing. The alarmists have been silenced. Hopefully, self-proclaimed oil industry "expert" and MSNBC frequent guest predictor of doom throughout the "disaster," Matt Simmons, has been shut-up once and for all (Simmons ominously warned that "methane from the well" was going to "kill millions of people" and also said repeatedly that the only way to get the runaway well stopped was with nuclear weapons, for crying out loud!).

Well...

My words about Simmons being "...shut-up once and for all..." have come to pass. 

He died, totally unexpectedly, last Sunday night in Maine (a few hours after I made my post).  News reports say that he accidentally drowned in his hot tub.

The left wing loons on the internet are cranking it up with all sorts of conspiracy theories about how Simmons was "silenced" or "murdered" by this "faction" or that "faction" for his comments about the Gulf of Mexico being "killed," his comments that BP hadn't really capped the blown well, and comments that BP was continuing to, with tacit government approval, deceive the public.

Good LORD...

A 67 year old man with a history of heart disease dies in his hot tub and the left-wing lunatics pounce on it as "proof" that Simmons angered the so-called "true" powers that be and "they" (whoever "they" might be) did a "Michael Corleone" to him...

Self-centered idiots...


Still...

Simmons dying within hours of me making a post that included a somewhat disparaging remark about him feels pretty weird, to say the least.


November or never.
