A White House Insider Speaks
There’s a series of interviews you have to check out. They are very eye-opening, though I pretty much surmised this sort of thing was going on a long time ago. I could tell, before Obama got elected, he would be a disaster. And now we have what looks like a white house insider, spilling the beans. Interesting reading.
The Dirty Dem Dozen
Karma’s a bitch for prevaricating hacks like Florida’s Alan Grayson who was just cut loose from the Democrat’s campaign spending because they see him as a loser this year. A dozen Democrats got the axe including Grayson who was last seen trolling for donations on the Democrat Underground site. That’s stooping pretty low since that is the land of utter loons.
Now They’re Assaulting People
South Carolina Dem Congress Creature Bob Etheridge assaults a student who only asked him if he still supported the Obama Agenda. Seeing how he’s down in the polls vs his Republican opponent for his job, that might have something to do with it.
UPDATE: The Democrats response to one of their own assaulting someone who asked a simple question is to blame the victim. Not a surprise since that’s what they always do. When SEIU thugs beat up Kenneth Gladney, a black, diabetic cancer survivor for selling “Don’t Tread on Me” Flags at a Tea Party event, it was his fault. When senior citizens complained at town halls that the Democrats Obamacare bill was going to make things worse, they were “violent agitators”. When More Union thugs threw eggs at a Tea Party event in Nevada, they called the cops on Andrew Breitbart, even while they were filmed throwing the eggs. And of course, let’s not forget all the women Bill Clinton molested that the Democrats tried to destroy. The kid who took that video is probably lying low because they Dems try to destroy anyone who exposes them.
They can’t lose fast enough. 4 1/2 more months!
Yes, We are Ruled by Lunatics
This today from Nancy Pelosi, supreme commando of the Lunar Harridan brigade.
“Democratic leaders in Congress and President Obama have produced the lowest tax bills for the American people in more than half a century,” Pelosi said in a statement. “Because of changes Democrats have made in tax policy, more than 100 million Americans have more money to support their families, consumers have more to spend at local businesses and our middle class is reaping the rewards.”
When are they going to ban botox? Can’t you see what it does to people’s minds?
The claims she makes in the article are due to Bush’s tax cuts, which the Dems are letting expire. They have a zillion new taxes set to kick in and they are creating new ones each day.
John Murtha, RIP
One of the Democrats worst politicians is now gone. he probably would have been gone from office in November. Now the have another seat they definitely have to worry about.
Dem Suicide Watch 2009
The Democrats are determined to go out like Thelma and Louise, only not as pretty or as stylish. And they may end up radioactive in the process.
Aside from raising the debt ceiling to some astronomical level, the Dems are determined to ram through a health care bill in the Senate. With the help of a couple of Maine RINOs.
If the CBO were to pronounce the package at least deficit-neutral – a big if, given the body’s Jesuitical approach to bud get accounting – the way would probably be cleared for a rapid vote in the Senate. Since the House of Representatives has already passed its own 1,990-page bill, only a seismic intervention could stop it from reaching Mr Obama’s desk within the ensuing weeks.
On Thursday, aides to Harry Reid, the Senate majority leader, said they believed the latest formulation would attract the 60 votes needed to prevent Republicans from being able to block it.
In addition, the fact Mr Reid is engaging the interest of two Republicans, Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, both senators for Maine, has provided added confidence that they may be able to afford to lose one Democratic vote in the upper chamber.
“We put together a bill that we believe has the best chance to overcome a Republican filibuster,” said Jim Manley, an aide to the Senate majority leader.
This comes in spite of the fact that a new poll shows 61% of the people oppose the Senate’s bill, which among other things wants to cover everyone 55 and older under Medicare. The very same Medicare they want to cut half a trillion out of. The very same Medicare that has 60 billion in fraud every year, and is about to go bankrupt.
Oh yeah, they are suicidal. And the poison they are taking will hurt the public before it kills them.
But in the end, it may just destroy their party. It’s too bad people didn’t listen to Lt. Grigsby 100 years ago.
Dem Doom 2009
I don’t know if Barbara Boxer is the stupidest person in the Senate, but she seems to be reaching for that brass ring. Check out this exchange with Senator Inhofe.
She wants to go after the whistler blower, and not the crooks behind Climate Gate. Which is typical behavior of corrupt politicians. But seriously, she takes the cake.
Like Jerry Brown, the California Atty General who wants to go after the two film makers who exposed ACORN. We live in a time where politicians blatantly flaunt their disregard for the law and the public, yet they expect us to reelect them. Brown wants to run for California governor again (even though he already served a couple terms in the past).
The public isn’t buying it anymore. Boxer is up for re-election next year and she is not polling well. Neither is Blanche Lincoln of Arkansas, who saw her poll numbers drop dramatically after voting to allow Obamacare into the Senate for debate. If that doesn’t put the fear of god into these fools, I don’t know what will. But then, they don’t believe in anything but power.
Yet they are about to lose it. Perhaps not enough for Republicans to completely take over in the next election, but serious losses are heading their way. The arrogance being displayed is beyond the pale. They continue to push for their failed agenda. Despite all that coming to light.
I think the Democrats are making themselves radioactive, and not a moment too soon. They’re doing unbelievable damage every day.
Waterloo Ain’t Just an Abba Song
Obama and the Dems are going to crash and burn and Health Care reform will be their undoing. They have no idea how bad the fire storm they started really is. But they sure keep throwing gas on the flames.
After a feint this weekend to see if people can accept a bill without a public option, their left wing started beating them. So they went back to saying they are going to push a partisan bill through.
Even with a Senate majority, I don’t think the senate will be stupid enough to pass it. And I doubt even the congress will pass it now. Dems see the polls and the polls are dire. There’s an election next year. We’re entering the start of the political season again.
Many Dems are behind in the pols. Powerful Dems like Chris Dodd, Barbara Boxer. Republicans look good to take over governorship of many blue states like New Jersey and New York.
And the Dems keep telling real American at these town halls they’re nazis and mobsters.
If health care crashes as I suspect, Obama may not get anything passed until the election is over. And with Dems losing a llot of seats, even their majorities, he will go down as the biggest failure since Carter.
At least Carter didn’t quadruple the debt.
UPDATE: Kuicinich and Conyers was Medicare for all. Medicare is on reason why health care cost got out of hand in the first place. And its broke. And it’s dying. Dems have no ideas except bad ones.
Disdainful Rulers
In case you had any illusions the government really cares what the people think, look at the ad they created attacking the real anger the public has towards this health care bill. They try to dehumanize the protesters and call them a manufactured mob.
And this is a pattern that other Congress creeps have picked up like that odious hag, Barbara Boxer.
They think this is going to play, but only their loyal ideologues will buy into this attack. It’s really going to enrage the people who are now polling in significant numbers against Obama care. Another poll shows that 71% think Obama is making the deficit worse (it should be 100% since that is what is happening).
Even worse than the above is the White House’s call for people to turn in any emails on health care that criticize the administrations plans. It’s something you’d expect from a tin pot dictator. But maybe that’s what Obama is. Not only has he appointed a bunch of crackpots as his ministers czars (including a socialist, a communist, an animal rights loon and a guy who wants forced sterilization and genocide), he’s starting to use tactics right out of the fascist playbook.
So it’s hilarious that he is saying these protests and tea parties are “a manufactured mob”. His ACORN buddies have been doing that for years and unlike the protesters we’re seeing now, ACORN has printed signs and matching tee-shirts. The left has been doing astro-turfing for a while now. They’re really threatened when they see real voters upset. And their response is to say they’re all crazy or puppets.
It will come as a nasty surprise next year when they discover they don’t have the right divine to lord over us.
UPDATE: The violence has already started. The Dems are sending their goons in now. It’s going to get a lot uglier. The people will not back down.
Obama Outrage DuJour
Every day Obama does something bad for this country. I don’t list them every day because I don’t want this site to be like one of those crazy Bush hater sites. But many of Obama’s actions should not be ignored that are blatantly wrong. Example:
President Barack Obama wants to end $26 billion in oil and gas industry tax breaks, calling them “unjustifiable loopholes” in the tax system that other companies do not get.
Obama’s proposed fiscal 2010 budget, details of which were released Thursday, also more clearly spells out his intention to shut down a proposed nuclear waste dump at Yucca Mountain in Nevada and calls for ending a government subsidy that helps utilities license and plan for new nuclear power plants.
…
Obama also wants to end a research program for using nuclear power plants to develop hydrogen fuel for transportation and cancel further subsidies to the nuclear industry to help license and plan for new nuclear power reactors. The budget eliminates $168 million that had been earmarked for the reactor program next fiscal year.
So not only is the “green” president killing nuclear power industry, which is the greenest and most effective one we have, he is trying to kill hydrogen power too.
And that’s not all. He’s cutting in half the fund that pays benefits to the families of slain police officers.
And get this!
President Obama would eliminate new funding for advanced-generation equipment to detect nuclear weapons and radiological materials at U.S. borders and ports and around New York City in his 2010 budget, homeland security officials said.
So not only is he cutting off green energy sources, he’s putting out the welcome mat to terrorists and flipping off the wives and children of slain officers. What a guy.
It seems like every day brings this kind of stuff. By raising taxes on energy you can bet gas and energy costs are going to shot way up again. Let’s see how his alleged recovery handles that.
As for his “signs of recovery”, ha!
Speaking of Dems, they have a lot to answer for if they keep up with this water boarding nonsense.
Dems Can’t Dance
When you can’t engage in a defense of your positions, try to divert people’s attentions away from your failings.
That’s what the Democrats have been doing for over a decade now. They create bogeymen as a symbol of hate, and direct all their troops in that direction, keeping their focus away from their lack of leadership or new ideas. In the Clinton era they used Ken Starr as their whipping post, then it was George W Bush, and now they’re focusing on Rush Limbaugh.
Top Democrats believe they have struck political gold by depicting Rush Limbaugh as the new face of the Republican Party, a full-scale effort first hatched by some of the most familiar names in politics and now being guided in part from inside the White House.
The strategy took shape after Democratic strategists Stanley Greenberg and James Carville included Limbaugh’s name in an October poll and learned their longtime tormentor was deeply unpopular with many Americans, especially younger voters. Then the conservative talk-radio host emerged as an unapologetic critic of Barack Obama shortly before his inauguration, when even many Republicans were showering him with praise.
Soon it clicked: Democrats realized they could roll out a new GOP bogeyman for the post-Bush era by turning to an old one in Limbaugh, a polarizing figure since he rose to prominence in the 1990s.
The first month of the Obama administration has sown us they are incapable of dealing with the problems facing the nation and the world. Their solution to the massive deficit is to triple it. Their solution to the credit crisis is to make America indebted for generations. And the help the economy? Pass cap and trade laws that will bankrupt energy companies and limit growth.
It’s like fighting fires with gasoline.
Their only answer to the anger they’re about to feel from the public is to divert their attention away on someone else. Since Bush is gone from office, they have to find someone to demonize, so they selected Limbaugh (after trashing Bobby Jindal the other day). The problem for Obama is Limbaugh can fight back. George W Bush chose to not defend himself that much, or even explain his positions that well. Limbaugh is a communications expert. And the Dems will only make him a bigger star if they engage him.
I don’t think they really understand what they’re getting themselves into.
President Obogus
Obama is two faced at the very least on Iraq. He recently stated troops will stay longer, after claiming he would be withdrawing them. Here’s evidence that he and Biden fought the surge, tried to undermine it. But is now basically saying what Bush was saying all along. That things can work in Iraq given more time.
Drowning in Debt
Democrats seem to think the answer to everything is taxes. They think taxes cure cancer. In fact, in the president’s recent speech he claimed we will cure cancer in our lifetimes. Why he didn’t throw in a cure for AIDs and world hunger is beyond me. He seems to like make grandiose promises.
Obama is trying to drown the US tax payer in debt for two reasons. He’s attempting to ram through his socialist agenda, universal health care and global warming taxes so that the government is permanently made larger and the debts laid on all of us will make us indentured servants of the nanny state for many generations. The second is the typical grandiose vainglorious motives so many leaders have. He wants a lasting legacy. He’s trying to buy this with the people’s money.
His budget includes a $634 billion “down payment” on universal health care even though the people didn’t vote for that and it has not been approved by the congress or the senate (yet). He’s banking on the Democrat majority to ensure it happens. And once there, the government will be able to dictate your life style even more than they do now.
He is putting taxes on carbon emissions, which is like putting taxes on breathing because every time you exhale, you are letting out carbon dioxide. Cap and Trade is an environmentalist scam and it’s yet another attempt to soak businesses, who are already over burdened with taxes and regulations.
There is no evidence that carbon dioxide is a “dangerous pollutant”. It’s part of nature. It’s food for plants. But Obama’s anti-science government wants to try to control it. A laughable and insane objective. So why does he do it? His budget projects $645 billion in revenues from the sale of emission allowances. Basically this will give the government more contriol over the energy busines than they already have. All you have to do is how well the government has run Amtrak, the Post Office, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to see what a poor idea it is to give the government too much power.
And he plans to tax the rich into the stone age. That has never worked and always stagnates the economy. We did that already in the past and it only kept us in a perpetual cycle of recessions and stagflation until Reagan cut taxes. When Bush did it it pulled us out of the post 9/11 recession and we had a period of great wealth generation. Our crash came from two many people using credit to further their extravagant lifestyles. And too many others taking advantages of the governments lax lending policies, which is not subject to change, apparently.
Take a look at this chart and you can see what an irresponsible leader Obama is. All the talk of Bush’s extravagance pales in comparison.
They want us in debt because it makes people more dependent. People who are financially sound are more free to make up their minds. Whose who are dependent on the state are more likely to vote for statist candidates.
Obama is for more government, more laws regulating people. The Democrats are even trying to regulate free speech. They failed to pass the fairness doctrine but they are going for it in other ways, even trying to control free speech on the Internet.
By their acts you shall know them.
UPDATE: Obama’s war on business.
Two Faced Hillary
During the Democrat primaries I rooted for Obama over Hillary, even though I didn’t want either of them to win the election. The reason I preferred Obama to Hillary is, at the time, he seemed less likely to win the election, but he also seemed preferable to her if he won. After all, I really don’t want to look at Bill Clinton’s mug any more than I have to, not to mention Hillary’s. The Clintons ran a very corrupt white house and I didn’t want to see a return to that.
Oops.
Not only did Obama hire almost the entire Clinton cabinet, he hired Hillary as Secretary of State. And apparently, she has changed her tune on Israel now that she no longer needs to patronize New York Jews as senator.
In a swift about face from her views as New York’s senator, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is now hammering Israel over its treatment of Palestinians in Gaza.
As First Lady, Clinton raised eyebrows when she kissed Suha Arafat.
Since she was then seeking a Senate seat the resulting brouhaha caused her to “re-think” her positions.
“I’m a very strong supporter of Israel,” Clinton said back in February 2000.
On Thursday, as Secretary of State she had yet another about face in the form of angry messages demanding Israel speed up aid to Gaza. Jewish leaders are furious
The Clinton never seemed very sincere to me and this proves it. She may be pushing this administration’s agenda. In any event what we’re seeing is not very encouraging. The next four years are looking really ugly.
And Clinton may be destroying her political future being part of Obama’s cabinent. Maybe that’s not such a bad thing after all.
