What Ignorance At CNN!

CNN's Christine Romans thinks Bill Clinton was "too conservative! What ignorance that displays on the part of someone who SHOULD be "paying attention but who obviously was not (except when her professors in college taught her to be a good socialist). The idea that Bill Clinton was "too conservative" is ludicrous. He's about as liberal as they come, and so is his wife. How do people GET so ignorant while still being able to land well-paying jobs? Sheesh! (Lynsi Thomas)

Dog and Pony Show

I'm getting very tired of the "dog and pony show" going on (today at Mile High Stadium/Invesco Field) in Denver this week. It's impossible to avoid it because the so-called "news sources" ALL are "wall-to-wall" with it. It's as if there is NO other news in the world. There is no way to avoid it short of just hitting the off button" on your television or radio. The worst part of it is there's no respite after the DNC gets finished because then they go directly to Minnesota for the REPUBLICAN National Convention where similar expensive, but unimportant things will go on all NEXT week. Just before that was the Olympics, also "wall-to-wall." What amazes me is that they think all this "sound and fury signifying nothing" is important. It's not. They've already picked their nominee (Hillary fizzled) for both spots, on both sides, so why do they need to spend all this money? Because they can; it's their biggest party in four years and they both mean to make the most of it.

I just hope all the politicians survive all the drinking and partying at our expense. It's also a podium from which the Democrats (and their accomplices) can say "good things" about their lame candidates and be taken seriously, just as if what they were saying was important. And there is going to be "more of the same" all next week, and the "sound and fury" will continue right up to the election. The only problem with this so-called "free society" of ours is the election process, which has not stopped since the LAST election in 2006. People wonder why I'm not right in the middle of it, since this blog is all about politics. The answer is, these "shows" are NOT politics. They're a "show" for "the masses," to convince us they're important. What IS important is what these politicians DO after they get elected, and THAT'S what I cover, bringing you news and info the liberal press means to keep from you. (Just common sense)

Insight Into the Liberal Press

I'm almost afraid to look at the "Mallard Fillmore" strip. He's not only right so often, he's more insightful than anybody else I know of and that makes a lot more work for me as I need to feature his wisdom and insight. In this one he illustrated graphically how the press is treating this election. The last time I said "Mallard" is right just about all the time I got a comment from a reader simply saying "You are wrong." So I asked him/her (an anonymous comment) to be more specific, and the silence from his/her direction is "golden." I guess he/she can't come up with any specifics. But I'm still wrong, right? (Mallard Fillmore)

Cocksure, But Ignorant and Arrogant

Obama has shown that he just has NO understanding of how the world works when he promised to "get us off the fossil oil standard within ten years." He made it worse when he cockily claimed he could "get one million 150 MPG cars on the road by 2015." (If it was so easy to do, why hasn't it already been done? He presumes to know how much of the profit EARNED by the oil companies is "excess profit" (who gets to DICTATE how much profit is "excess profit?"). And what makes him think he will have the power to TAKE that "excess profit" to spend elsewhere? I'm sure the oil companies would LOVE to spend that "excess profit" the environmental extremists (Democrats all) won't let them spend on exploration to do so. But they're forced to keep it in their bank accounts instead of looking for new sources of oil within the United States. (Café Hayek)

Success Envy

That's what I see when Democrats attack McCain for not knowing how many houses he (or his wife) own(s). Not a peep out of them if a Democrat DEFAULTS on a loan gained from "political friends" and their influence. Paul Jacob (Common Sense) says, " Hmmm. Silence when politicians use their positions for material gain? Attacks when McCain pays his own way!" Wonder how many huts Obama's half-brother (who lives on a dollar a day) owns. Actually, who cares? (Common Sense)

Hybrids Only

Reserved For a Prius

I'm getting tired of liberals in Congress giving special privileges to those "dumbos" who "buy their crap." The latest is the "special parking" for drivers of those now ubiquitous "hybrids" (that cost so much money it would take YEARS to pay for in saved gas, if any) Even cab companies are buying them and there are drivers "lined up around the block" to drive them because they, too, have "bought the bullcrap" that they get better gas mileage) and the cab companies think they can get more business by "being green." They'll ultimately find out that they won't (both of them) and then the liberals in government will "rescue them" by giving them a "green subsidy." Debbie Schussel asks, "What's next--special parking spots for illegal aliens, the non-English speaking, Muslims, vegan lesbian yoga teachers who were artificially inseminated?" (Debbie Schussel)

Why Ed Koch (a Democrat) Supports Bush

It's one of the main reasons why I don't "write him off," too, even though he has done (or not done) some things that make me shake with anger (Such as allowing one of his personal friends to imprison two Border Patrol agents for more than ten years for doing their jobs, and not pardoning them). When asked, Koch said, "Bush surprised and impressed me with his resolve after September 11 to go after the terrorists and the countries that harbor them. He had the grit to topple the Taliban [in Afghanistan -RT], drive Saddam Hussein from power and press on in what is going to continue to be a grinding conflict." I like the fact that he has the courage of his convictions. Yes, mistakes were made by his subordinates and are in the process of being corrected. Another reason is there is NO ONE on the Democrat side that I'd trust with the presidency. Especially not Obama; OR Hillary; OR Kerry. All for much the same reasons: they're socialists and promote socialist programs. (Just common sense) Something most liberals and Democrats don't have. If they did have, they wouldn't be liberal Democrats.

Female Islamic Terrorists?

Now that's hard to believe, considering the way Islamics treat their women, but it's true. Seems to me, their women would be HAPPY to be out from under their yoke. And you can't blame it on ignorance, either. The latest one has several PHDs and is a scientist, in her own right. How could SHE be so stupid as to do the work of the Islamic terrorists? Maybe that's her way to get out from under their thumb. (No, not the one this story is about) (Israel Insider)

Teaching Terrorism

Did you know that almost 1,000 AMERICAN children are currently being "educated" (translated: "conditioned") abroad in fundamentalist Islamic schools known as "madrassas?" What sane American would allow their children to be abused in this way? About the only "learning" going on there is the MEMORIZING of the Koran, and if any of the kids "gets out of line," he is beaten for his trouble. They sleep on thin mats on the floor and start their 12 hour a day sessions at dawn. These kids will no doubt return home with implacable, radical, extremist Islamic views while "blending seamlessly into society." The pictures of these kids in News Max, taken while they were "studying," show two kinds of expressions: profound boredom, or "teeth-gritting" anger. People who allow their children to be subjected to this are the ones the "child protectors" ought to be "looking into." Not the innocent parents who have been "reported" by people who are suing them for other things, to get their attention off the suit, knowing they can't be punished, even for false reports. It normally takes about seven years to memorize the Koran, and they will come home completely conditioned to think like Muslim extremists; they're "walking time-bombs" who will probably go off in future years. Read the article, "Teaching Terrorism," in the September 2008 issue of News Max Magazine. It's available on most major newsstands, or you can subscribe (or ask for a specific issue if it is still in stock) by going to (NewsMax.com)

Avoiding Being Specific

This is how Obama and his henchmen keep America from knowing his REAL convictions, which are pure socialism. Every time someone asks about specifics, we get generalities, and if we persist, they call us names. We'll never find out his specific ideas until (if) he gets elected and begins making "changes" that are not to our liking, but are very much to HIS. This is how it will be for at least the next 4 years if he gets elected. Eight years if people don't "wake up" to his socialism after he and his accomplices take over all their decisions, money, and life. I really hate watching as Americans prepare to APPROVE people (liberals) stealing all they own. (Mallard Fillmore)

Twisting Facts

I've finally found out what Doonesbury is good for, if anything. It's showing you graphically how to "twist the numbers" and "knock" Fox in the bargain. Fox News has always, since it was started, been the liberals' favorite "evidence" of media bas "in favor of the right. Never mind that ABC, CBS, NBC, Washington Post, New York Times, LA Times, and ALL other news outlets are plainly biased toward the left (with 90% of their newsmen ADMITTING they vote Democrat). This ONE outlet, which they call "biased" because it tells BOTH SIDES of the story instead of just the liberal side, represents "media bias to the right" for them. This strip by Doonesbury shows how the left "creates big figures" for something they IMAGINE, but can't prove. Showing a Fox reporter saying he'll report "both numbers" and let the viewers decide is really stupid, because it makes MY point. Why do I say this? Because it wasn't necessary to IDENTIFY Fox News to make THEIR imaginary point. (Doonesbury)

Intimidating the French

The Taliban is trying to intimidate the French by targeting them in heavy attacks. But it's not working. The French, under Sarkozy, have "found their backbone" and they killed 13 of the Taliban attackers in a day-long battle. The Taliban managed to kill 10 of the French in the first moments of the surprise attack, by blowing themselves, AND some French soldiers up in "suicide bomb" attacks. But they were largely unable to kill many more in the day-long battle that followed, which shows their incompetence in actual fighting. (Yahoo News)

To Destroy the Republican Party

The liberal media is urging John McCain to pick a "pro-choice" (pro-baby killing) candidate for his vice-president. To do so would literally DESTROY the Republican Party because it would drive the Republican "base" to "stay home," or worse, vote Democrat (Which is just what Democrats want). If he does it, I fear for the future of this country because it would result I the election of Obama, a proven SOCIALIST, who would end up taking all you own by instituting a socialist (collectivist) system in this country. Don't believe it? Just listen to his every word; words that tell you how much he's going to DO for you (with other people's money). That is socialism, pure and simple. If you don't understand what socialism is, and why it's bad for you and the rest of the country, PLEASE do some research and see it that's what you REALLY want. (Just common sense)

Dems to Destroy Our Economy

And thus the country, cause the price of oil, a substance on which this country runs, to rise until it's too expensive for the average person to buy. Then the price of EVERYTHING will also go up because transportation companies will have to also raise their rates precipitously and EVERYTHING you buy MUST be shipped. At the same time, they promote the use of corn, which is almost as ubiquitous as oil, as a fuel source, forcing the price of CORN and everything that depends upon it up and causing a shortage of corn. It's a "domino effect," which will, if it is allowed to continue, destroy our economy and make socialism (collectivism) look good; and that's what Democrats want, something that makes their failed system (which has failed in time, everywhere it has been tried), look good. They refuse to allow us to build ANYTHING (except Ethanol refineries) without having to wait for endless "environmental studies" that raise the cost of ANY project while delaying it unconscionable amount of time. Everything the liberals (Democrats) do is bad for the economy and they "sell it to you" as the "bread and circuses" they intend to provide, with someone else's money (not theirs). We need to wake up to their scam and vote the ones now in office, out; while keeping new ones OUT of office at all costs. (Tri-City Forum)

This is the Way They Twist the Law

Use the "abandoned property law" to steal property that is NOT "abandoned, but which is actively under court forfeiture action with owners and their lawyers in court every day to fight the action. This is how the government wins such cases; by "stacking the deck in their own favor. Yes, I know that it's mostly [people ACCUSED of drug dealing who are harmed by this, but aren't they entitled to an "even chance" in court, just as you are? Aren't they "innocent until proven guilty?" The very stated intent of the RICO Laws under which such "forfeitures" are done is unconstitutional (to stop drug dealers, who have a lot of money, from using it to hire the best lawyers they can). That seems to me to be an effort to force drug dealers to suffer under the sometimes inexperience and disinterest of some government-employed lawyers who might be just "going through the motions." That, in itself seems to be "stacking the deck" in the government's favor. I don't like drug dealers any more than anybody else, but they still should have an "even chance" in court until they ARE convicted. (Star-Press)

Muslims Intimidate Publisher

Random House paid $100,000 for "The Jewel of Medina", a detailed story about Muhammad's 9-year-old wife. Muslim sources put pressure on them, and they capitulated, saying they didn't want to "offend" Muslims. Actually, what they didn't want was Muslims killing any of their editors. This is the kind of threatened violence that sometimes intimidates people and is a well-known tactic of the Muslim terrorists to keep people from publishing the truth about them. (Jihad Watch)

"The People Want Change!"

This is an excellent picture of Obama as he is. He will bring "change," even if it kills us. "Change," for change's sake, is not always good. This is a good example. The overall "change" Obama will bring us is from our SUCCESSFUL capitalist system to the universally UNSUCCESSFUL socialist system, with him and his pals in charge. Is this what you want? Do you want the government making ALL your decisions for you, right down to when you can go to the bathroom? Do you want them controlling (or taking) your property (for the good of the nation)?" This is what you'll get if Obama is elected. (Mallard Fillmore)

He's A "Dead Man"

His own father will probably kill him (Just as many do their own daughters who get raped) because the Muslims are so terrified of people who leave their religion, to do so is a "death sentence" their own family must carry out. If they don't, other Muslims will kill ALL of them. Look for it to happen soon. Hamas just can't afford to have the son of one of their top men to convert to ANY other religion because it might incite other conversions. I'd hate to be under such a religion; one that controls my life absolutely and will itself condemn me to death if I leave it. (World Net Daily)

Solzhenitzyn is Dead

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, the author of The Gulag Archipelago, a monumental chronicle of the horrors of the Soviet labor camps, has died at the "tender age" of 89, just as the ideals of Russian freedom is dying under their new premier, former President Vladmir Putin, a former KVD officer who conned his way into the presidency and is now "Premier for Life" while eliminating most (so far) of the new changes made in the wake of the Soviet communist "collapse," moving Russia back into Soviet-style socialism/communism. Bush "bought" his charade, and so did Solhenitzyn, to some degree. It's good that he did not live to see the results of Putin's machinations. (Common Sense)

"Defining" Racism

"DEFINING" RACISM: Mallard Fillmore is right again as he shows how liberals streeetttcch the truth to be able to call ANYBODY with which they disagree racist. This is a method they have been using for eons, but it's getting a little thin. People are getting tired of hearing things they never thought of as being racist being described that way. This is how they do it. Simply DEFINE any action or opinion you don't like as racist and stick to your story. Many gullible people who "don't pay attention" will believe you, and "ostracize" the person accused of racism. In some cases, he can even lose his job, as one university president did for saying women might not have the ability to learn that men do. Now THAT'S a stretch. I don't believe it, but to get a man fired for saying it is a stretch and an irresponsible application of power. (Mallard Fillmore)
