Clarence Thomas: speaks very little (BAD) Hussein speaks a lot… about nothing (GOOD)
Tuesday, February 26th, 2008
Ok Y’all know I don’t usually take swipes at other folks blogs because 99% of the time, well 100% of the time it tis pointless. The reason we all have blogs is to express our particular points of view.
Most bloggers are incurable narcissists. Even me, I have exceedingly strong opinions, most I share here, I share fewer in person depending on the audience.
I scan hundreds of websites throughout the week reading opinions and dissecting political discourse.
This little tidbit, for some reason caught my attention…From the blog: The “Bush”-Whacked Administration “Two guys trying to make Sense more Common and who are out to prove that 50,456,002 Americans were wrong…and by the way, we’re left.”
(two guys vs 50 mil) wow!
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas hasn’t asked a question in 2 years and 142 cases the last time he asked a question was February 22, 2006. Thomas’ reasoning for not asking questions is, like him, shallow, saying “One thing I’ve demonstrated often in 16 years is you can do this job without asking a single question.” (Well Mr. Thomas, I think you mean you can ‘hold this job without asking a single question’… because I certainly don’t think you’re doing this job…)
Ooooooo! I found it laughable that a liberal Bush hating, Obama supporting blog, would bemoan the fact that Clarence Thomas chooses not to grandstand and ask a bunch of unnecessary questions, while this blog keeper is likely one of those who faints at Obama rallies after he gives two hour long ranting speeches on hope and other fantasy bullshit.
I’m just thinking about myself, I have served on 30 or more philanthropic boards, civic bodies and various organizations and looking back on it, I asked relatively few questions, mostly because I discovered that if you did your research and homework prior to attending one of these sessions, questions typically were unnecessary. I needed to ask a question only to clarify a specific point or issue, in an agenda items.
I developed a well deserved reputation on these bodies, and old foes would tell you, if (I) asked questions during a session, you had a problem, a really BIG problem.
Most elected folks ask numerous questions during committee sessions because it makes them feel good, they want their name in the official record as “participant,” for most yaks they simply want to grandstand.
As Thomas states in the article, most people just speak because they love the sound of their own voice. What is that line “brevity is the soul of wit?”
It stands to reason why liberals continue to equate empty hollow words with action and substance.
The Minnesota man who claims to have had sex with and taken cocaine with Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama voluntarily participated in a series of polygraph tests over the weekend.
Whitehouse.com initially offered Larry Sinclair $10,000 to take a polygraph test, and $100,000 if he passed it and was shown to be telling the truth.Whitehouse.com acquired the services of two expert polygraph examiners, who have examined Mr. Sinclair. The results of the first polygraph examination by Dr. Ed Gelb (Former President of the American Polygraph Association) indicate “deception” in regards to both the drug and sex claims by Sinclair.
The second expert’s conclusions have not yet been revealed, but should be early this week. These will either confirm or deny the first examiner’s results. Whitehouse.com has additionally promised to post video recordings of the examinations for complete disclosure and transparency.
********************************************************************
Sinclair, who describes himself as “gay,” claims he “personally engaged in
sexual activity and personally used illegal drugs in November 1999″ with Obama
Minnesota man takes his case to court, YouTube, $100,000 polygraph challenge..This is from World Net Daily, no shit, not from the National Enquirer.Now I know this is small by comparison, and more tabloid in scope, but as the Obama magic seemingly propels him closer to the Oval Office there will be more crazy shit said about him and more weirdness will manifest itself.Between the crazy shit the Clinton’s will unveil, the ever present racial strife that still plagues this country closet racists will stop at nothing to torpedo this man becoming president.
Hell the media is already circulating crazy shit like assassination plots against the dude.No amount of youthful exuberance will be able to overcome the painful reality of racist strife in this country and Obama will be the main target
WASHINGTON – The electrifying presidential campaign of Barack Obama faces a new challenge – a Minnesota man who claims he took cocaine in 1999 with the then-Illinois legislator and participated in homosexual acts with him.When his story was ignored by the news media, Larry Sinclair made his case last month in a YouTube video, which has now been viewed more than a quarter-million times. And when it was still ignored by the media, Sinclair filed a suit in Minnesota District Court, alleging threats and intimidation by Obama’s staff.
“My motivation for making this public is my desire for a presidential candidate to be honest,” Sinclair told WND by telephone. “I didn’t want the sex thing to come out. But I think it is important for the candidate to be honest about his drug use as late as 1999.”
Ok I might be a tad late on this, but hey I can’t read every damm thing, LOL!
I never thought too much about these people dropping out at Obama rallies, but after looking at a bunch of footage this just smells fishy. It’s like he uses these incidents as time killers, or to mask something else at the event. I’m not a conspiracy theorist but the fact that he was always the one to point out the individual and was willing to interrupt his speech to attend to that person just does not make sense.
Just something else to ponder in the phony world of Obamamania.
UPPER PROVIDENCE, Pa. (CBS 3) ― The Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office is investigating a politically motivated stabbing that left one in-law hospitalized and another in prison.Authorities said brother-in-laws Jose Ortiz and Sean Shurelds were involved in a verbal altercation over Democratic presidential hopefuls Barack Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton when the argument escalated into a stabbing inside their family home on Honey Locust Court in Upper Providence.
Authorities said Ortiz, a registered Republican and Clinton supporter, allegedly stabbed Shurelds, an Obama supporter, in the stomach.
Shurelds was flown to an area hospital and was listed in critical condition.
Ortiz was jailed on $20,000 bail. If convicted of a felony crime, he will not be able to vote in the upcoming election.
Oh god I laughed out loud at this crazy shit! Have you ever read a story where the political affiliation of an assailant was revealed? A “Republican” resorting to violence over Hillary Clinton!?
Man the media is so fucked up, pimping for Obama to the point where evil republicans and Hillary fans are teaming up to O.J. Obama supporters. What is this world coming to!!!
Cherchez la femme,” advised Alexander Dumas in: “When you want to uncover an unspecified secret, look for the woman.” In the case of Barack Obama, we have two: his late mother, the went-native anthropologist Ann Dunham, and his rancorous wife Michelle. Obama’s women reveal his secret: he hates America.We know less about Senator Obama than about any prospective president in American history. His uplifting rhetoric is empty, as Hillary Clinton helplessly protests. His career bears no trace of his own character, not an article for the Harvard Law Review he
edited, or a single piece of legislation. He appears to be an empty vessel filled with the wishful thinking of those around him. But there is a real Barack Obama. No man - least of all one abandoned in infancy by his father - can conceal the imprint of an impassioned mother, or the influence of a brilliant wife.
America is not the embodiment of hope, but the abandonment of one kind of hope in return for another. America is the spirit of creative destruction, selecting immigrants willing to turn their back on the tragedy of their own failing culture in return for a new start. Its creative success is so enormous that its global influence hastens the decline of other cultures. For those on the destruction side of the trade, America is a monster. Between half and nine-tenths of the world’s 6,700 spoken languages will become extinct in the next century, and the anguish of dying peoples rises up in a global cry of despair. Some of those who listen to this cry become anthropologists, the curators of soon-to-be extinct cultures; anthropologists who really identify with their subjects marry them. Obama’s mother, the University of Hawaii anthropologist Ann Dunham, did so twice.
Obama profiles Americans the way anthropologists interact with primitive peoples. He holds his own view in reserve and emphatically draws out the feelings of others; that is how friends and colleagues describe his modus operandi since his days at the Harvard Law Review, through his years as a community activist in Chicago, and in national politics. Anthropologists, though, proceed from resentment against the devouring culture of America and sympathy with the endangered cultures of the primitive world. Obama inverts the anthropological model: he applies the tools of cultural manipulation out of resentment against America. The probable next president of the United States is a mother’s revenge against the America she despised.
Ann Dunham died in 1995, and her character emerges piecemeal from the historical record, to which I will return below. But Michelle Obama is a living witness. Her February 18 comment that she felt proud of her country for the first time caused a minor scandal, and was hastily qualified. But she meant it, and more. The video footage of her remarks shows eyes hooded with rage as she declares:
For the first time in my adult lifetime, I am really proud of my country and not just because Barack has done well, but because I think people are hungry for change. And I have been desperate to see our country moving in that direction and just not feeling so alone in my frustration and disappointment.
The desperation, frustration and disappointment visible on Michelle Obama’s face are not new to the candidate’s wife; as Steve Sailer, Rod Dreher and other commentators have noted, they were the theme of her undergraduate thesis, on the subject of “blackness” at Princeton University. No matter what the good intentions of Princeton, which founded her fortunes as a well-paid corporate lawyer, she wrote, “My experiences at Princeton have made me far more aware of my ‘Blackness’ than ever before. I have found that at Princeton no matter how liberal and open-minded some of my White professors and classmates try to be toward me, I sometimes feel like a visitor on campus; as if I really don’t belong.”
Never underestimate the influence of a wife who bitch-slaps her husband in public. Early in Obama’s campaign, Michelle Obama could not restrain herself from belittling the senator. “I have some difficulty reconciling the two images I have of Barack Obama. There’s Barack Obama the phenomenon. He’s an amazing orator, Harvard Law Review, or whatever it was, law professor, best-selling author, Grammy winner. Pretty amazing, right? And then there’s the Barack Obama that lives with me in my house, and that guy’s a little less impressive,” she told a fundraiser in February 2007.
“For some reason this guy still can’t manage to put the butter up when he makes toast, secure the bread so that it doesn’t get stale, and his five-year-old is still better at making the bed than he is.” New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd reported at the time, “She added that the TV version of Barack Obama sounded really interesting and that she’d like to meet him sometime.” Her handlers have convinced her to be more tactful since then.

Ah the above piece another example of the evil blogsphere at work, LOL! I posted basically because I have not found much today that interests me. I am slightly sleep deprived and a bit cranky. I read so much Obama material this weekend, shit I could run his campaign now.
I received the above story via my e-mail. Instead of getting actual comments on the site you would not believe how many e-mail blog post tips I receive now.
I pay more attention to tips from friends, on my sidebar, but I posted something about abortions a week or so ago and now I have been getting all kinds of abortion posts.
Since I have been trashing Hussein recently I am getting more evil Obama material.
Its cool tho, I do quite of bit of recycling with some rage thrown in.
I was watching a History Chanel series this weekend (I recorded the series) “The Presidents” lots of interesting stuff I did not know about some of our past leaders. However as I watched the development of the presidency it is still quite telling that not much has changed when it comes to scandal, backstabbing, sexual innuendo, extramarital affairs, media hit jobs ect.
The questions always come up scrutinizing the character of a man who would screw around on his wife. Is that man fit to be in public office?
Liberals still to this day when trying to diss folks on the right, say evil Republicans wanted to impeach Mr. Bill because of sexual impropriety. Anyone with any amount of common fucken sense know that virtually every elected official in Washington has a shit load of skeletons in his or her closet and that the vast majority of presidents fucked around on their wives.
Mr. Bill is a habitual liar, it is damm near impossible for him to complete a sentence without lying. Bill is the type of person who would lie, when the truth would serve him better.
Mr. Bill will not be the last president to play with cigars in the Oval Office.
Anywho, my focus, McCain; well do I really give a shit about the possibility of him screwing a lobbyist? Not at all, screwing around on his wife is far less egregious to me than his stance on illegal immigration, or his global warming beliefs or even his pledge not to raise taxes.
However keep in mind, if you are able to smile and look your wife and family in the eye and pledge your love, fidelity and devotion to them, then hop into bed with some skank to work off the Viagra, shit you think that lying to a voter or your political colleagues would be that hard to do?
I don’t trust McCain at all and it has nothing to do with him doing the nasty with lobbyist skanks.
As for the New York Time editor, I mean seriously, the Times is a rag, I rarely read it, dude went with the story on Maverick Mack to try and create revenue for his failing shitty newspaper.
As for comparing his affair to McCain’s well, I just can’t get a reading on my “give a shit” meter.
This guy said it, wow someone with the ballz to say what they really think and call this global warming shit for what it really is, a total bunch of ridiculous retarded bullshit.
There is more HERE and HERE if you want to read more, but this is just one dudes opinion. I just wish these global warming Nazis would have a genuine debate on the issue.
FIRST they can start by explaining why most of the damm country has been experiencing record cold temperatures and record snowfall.WAIT, WAIT, WAIT……. I already know what some global warming weenie would say if he or she read this:
“the recent cold temperatures and snowfall is due to the melting icecaps, emitting more moisture into the atmosphere”
Look it up, google it, who wants to bet me that would be the GW weenie’s answer, anyone ANYONE!
Obama worked with terrorist… and other shady folks

Senator helped fund organization that rejects ‘racist’ Israel’s existence
JERUSALEM – The board of a nonprofit organization on which Sen. Barack Obama served as a paid director alongside a confessed domestic terrorist granted funding to a controversial Arab group that mourns the establishment of Israel as a “catastrophe” and supports intense immigration reform, including providing drivers licenses and education to illegal aliens.The co-founder of the Arab group in question, Columbia University professor Rashid Khalidi, also has held a fundraiser for Obama. Khalidi is a harsh critic of Israel, has made statements supportive of Palestinian terror and reportedly has worked on behalf of the Palestine Liberation Organization while it was involved in anti-Western terrorism and was labeled by the State Department as a terror group.
In 2001, the Woods Fund, a Chicago-based nonprofit that describes itself as a group helping the disadvantaged, provided a $40,000 grant to the Arab American Action Network, or AAAN, for which Khalidi’s wife, Mona, serves as president. The Fund provided a second grant to the AAAN for $35,000 in 2002.
Obama was a director of the Woods Fund board from 1999 to Dec. 11, 2002, according to the Fund’s website. According to tax filings, Obama received compensation of $6,000 per year for his service in 1999 and 2001.
Obama served on the Wood’s Fund board alongside William C. Ayers, a member of the Weathermen terrorist group which sought to overthrow of the U.S. government and took responsibility for bombing the U.S. Capitol in 1971.
Ayers, who still serves on the Woods Fund board, contributed $200 to Obama’s senatorial campaign fund and has served on panels with Obama at numerous public speaking engagements. Ayers admitted to involvement in the bombings of U.S. governmental buildings in the 1970s. He is a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago.
(Here is the last portion of the article) There is a flickering presidential campaign analogy from the 1970s while you, Mr. McCain, were detained in Hanoi — while Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn were setting bombs, Mr. Rashidi was in the Mideast with the PLO, Mr. Auchi was in Baghdad with Saddam Hussein and Mr. Obama was eleven years old in Hawaii. In March and April 1972, Democratic primary voters elbowed aside Chicago Mayor Richard Daley’s favorite, Ed Muskie of Maine, in order to nominate for the presidency the self-described “people’s president,” George McGovern of South Dakota. The Daley team telephoned Rowland Evans and Robert Novak to complain, “anybody but McGovern.” The prescient quote from the Daley partisan: “I think the nomination of George McGovern would mean the end of the Democratic Party we have known.”
Richard Nixon defeated George McGovern, forty-nine states to one. Will the four horsemen of Mr. Obama’s November, Rezko, Ayers, Rashidi and Auchi, lead to a similar defeat for the spectacular candidacy of Barack Obama?
Man all kinds of crazy stuff, I even found this site: Rezko Watch -
“Rezko Watch will follow the adventures — and misadventures — of indicted Chicago political friendster-fundraiser Antoin “Tony” Rezko and his relationship with Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.).”
Consider a bill into which Obama clearly put his heart and soul. The problem he wanted to address was that too many confessions, rather than being voluntary, were coerced — by beating the daylights out of the accused.Obama proposed requiring that interrogations and confessions be videotaped.This seemed likely to stop the beatings, but the bill itself aroused immediate opposition. There were Republicans who were automatically tough on crime and Democrats who feared being thought soft on crime. There were death penalty abolitionists, some of whom worried that Obama’s bill, by preventing the execution of innocents, would deprive them of their best argument. Vigorous opposition came from the police, too many of whom had become accustomed to using muscle to “solve” crimes. And the incoming governor, Rod Blagojevich, announced that he was against it.
***********
Remember the dude on Chris Matthews….
Well, after the fact, Watson actually tried to come up with a list of Obama’s “accomplishments” after the fact. So, imagine it: Watson is highly motivated because he has made his candidate look bad on TV, so he does heavy research, he talks to his fellow Obama supporters, and he probably even called Obama’s campaign.

So, imagine it: Watson is highly motivated because he has made his candidate look bad on TV, so he does heavy research, he talks to his fellow Obama supporters, and he probably even called Obama’s campaign. So, what did Watson manage to come up with? This is it…
* Senator Obama’s fight for universal children’s health care in Illinois.* His success bringing Republicans and Democrats together (a huge selling point for me in general) on bills such as the one in Illinois requiring police interrogations and confessions to be videotaped.* His leadership on ethics reform in Washington (the bill that lobbyists and special interests are complaining about right now has his name on it).
* His bill to make the federal budget far more transparent and accessible to Americans via the Internet – we could use that openness in Texas.
* And his vital work with Republicans to lock down nuclear weapons around the world.
No wait, Jack and Jill Politics blog unhappy with us conservative leaning folks trashing their man has a bunch of stuff.
OBAMA HAS SIGNIFICANT LEGISLATIVE ACHIEVEMENTS both in the Illinois and US Senate.You should be able to discuss his groundbreaking work to reform the Illinois death penalty by getting confessions videotaped against the objections of a Republican governor plus police and prosecutors.
That’s all Watson had to know. But wait, there’s more. So. Much. More.
He says:
“you need to visit barackobama.com NOW. Seriously. It is your duty as a citizen to be informed and no one is preventing you. Go to the issues page. Click on any issue (e.g. Civil Rights). This may sound hard, but I want you to read it. Jump to the bottom where it says “Barack Obama’s Record” and you’ll see” for example:
Record of Advocacy: Obama has worked to promote civil rights and fairness in the criminal justice system throughout his career. As a community organizer, Obama helped 150,000 African Americans register to vote. As a civil rights lawyer, Obama litigated employment discrimination, housing discrimination, and voting rights cases. As a State Senator, Obama passed one of the country’s first racial profiling laws and helped reform a broken death penalty system. And in the U.S. Senate, Obama has been a leading advocate for protecting the right to vote, helping to reauthorize the Voting Rights Act and leading the opposition against discriminatory barriers to voting.
In a February 12 article in The Politico on Sen. Barack Obama’s (D-IL) “peevish” comments “accus[ing] the media of ignoring his substantive record and falsely depicting him as a lightweight,” senior political writer Ben Smith claimed that Obama “hasn’t sponsored any legislation that would affect the way Americans live their daily lives.” Yet, as Media Matters for America has noted, Obama was the primary sponsor of 152 bills and resolutions introduced in the last Congress. These included bills to create a federal standard for renewable diesel fuel (S.1426), to improve benefits and services for members of the armed forces and veterans (S.3988), and to direct the Nuclear Regulatory Commission to establish guidelines for tracking spent fuel rods (S.1194).
more at the above link… BUT BUT BUT Media Matters end the piece by informing you of the following:
Smith did not note that between the time Obama took office and January 4, the Republican Party was the majority party in the Senate and thus controlled the legislative agenda. In such a situation, the oportunities for a bill sponsored by a member of the minority party to see legislative action are particularly limited.
Lets be fair, people!
OK believe it or not people I check out a great number of these links, so who else on the left is trying to pimp for B Hussein Obama?
Statistic: Barack Obama missed 185 of 1098 votes (17%) since Jan 6, 2005 (Extremely Poor relative to peers).
Bill Sponsorship & Cosponsorship
Statistics: Barack Obama has sponsored 129 bills since Jan 4, 2005, of which 120 haven’t made it out of committee (Poor) and 1 were successfully enacted (Average, relative to peers). Obama has co-sponsored 545 bills during the same time period (Average, relative to peers).
Some of Obama’s most recently sponsored bills include… (View All)
I have now properly educated myself on Obama’s “greatness.” Wow I bet you Obama supporters must be beaming and just oozing at the possibility of electing the next MLK? Kennedy? Carter? LOL!
Chris Matthews did the Obama people a huge favor, all of these tards were going around gushing about Obama’s speaking eloquence and his bullshit message of change and hope.
Matthews embarrassing that moron from Texas put the Obama fans on notice.
I doubt it, bloggers tend to be far more educated about political issues and the true substance of candidates, but the average person on the streets will always be more smitten by a politicians, looks, charm/charisma, speech giving ability, bottom line a bunch of bullshit.
Wizbang Blue had these clips from that dude who does the focus group thing on Fox and asked these clueless people if they could name any Obama accomplishment. Well without watching the video, you already know the answer.
I was particularly amused at one dudes response:
From Sister Toldjah - Barack Obama’s ties to lobbyists and special interests
“I think it is imperative that the whole truth and nothing but the truth gets out about the man who could be our next president. He’s not being completely upfront with the American people, and we all know his devotees in the press will faithfully continue to carry his water, so it’s up to “citizen journalists” to help spread the word.The Washington Post fact check article I linked to noted a few examples, but here are some more: On August 9, 2007, The Boston Globe reported on Barack Obama’s meteoric rise in politics, and just what types of groups helped make that possible: PACS and lobbyists (emphasis added by me):
A Globe review of Obama’s campaign finance records shows that he collected hundreds of thousands of dollars from lobbyists and PACs as a state legislator in Illinois, a US senator, and a presidential aspirant.In Obama’s eight years in the Illinois Senate, from 1996 to 2004, almost two-thirds of the money he raised for his campaigns — $296,000 of $461,000 — came from PACs, corporate contributions, or unions, according to Illinois Board of Elections records. He tapped financial services firms, real estate developers, healthcare providers, oil companies, and many other corporate interests, the records show.
One of Sen. Obama’s biggest donors is the energy giant Exelon:
Exelon is the sixth largest donor to Sen. Obama’s presidential campaign and the fourth largest career donor to Obama’s federal campaigns. Exelon employees have donated over $269,100 to his federal campaigns and over $194,750 in 2008. [opensecrets.org, 2008, 2004-2008]
Central to Obama’s message of change are claims that he is free of lobbyist influence. But in fact, he has been, and still is being funded by some of the same sort of interests and corporate interests as Clinton and other candidates through big corporate donors known as bundlers.
In fact, he’s received so much funding, an estimated $30 million per month, that his campaign appears to be backpedaling on a November pledge where he said if he was the Democratic nominee, he would aggressively pursue and agreement with the Republican nominee to preserve a publicly financed general election.
“The Washington Post” said in a February 16 editorial that “this kind of backtracking and parsing is’t what the millions of voters who have been inspired by Mr. Obama are looking for.”
More telling, a November 2006 Harpers article “The Making of a Washington Machine” by Ken Silverstein quoted an anonymous Washington lobbyist, “big donors would not be helping out OBama if they didn’t see him as a player.”
In a fundraising e-mail sent to supporters at the beginning of March, the candidate wrote that Washington’s special-interest industry is trying “to own our political process and dictate our policies in Washington.
“We’re not going to play that game. We’re not taking any contributions from Washington lobbyists or political action committees. We’re going to transform the political process by bringing together hundreds of thousands of ordinary Americans to build a campaign.”
– The black Columbia University professor who last fall found a hangman’s noose pinned to her office door plagiarized the work of another faculty member and two students, according to a school investigation released yesterday.
The plagiarism probe was already under way last year when a 4-foot twine noose was discovered on the door of psychology and education professor Madonna Constantine’s office, officials at the university’s Teachers College said.
They said they disciplined Constantine for stealing other people’s work for articles she published in academic journals.
They cited two dozen instances of plagiarism over the past five years that were substantiated in an 18-month investigation by a Manhattan law firm.
Teachers College spokesman Joe Levine would not say how Constantine was punished, but college officials said her position is secure.
In a statement e-mailed to Bloomberg News Service yesterday, Constantine said she was the:
Y’all know I don’t think much of McCain so any blog post that put him under the microscope will always be of interest to me. Check it out: From the blog (No More Incumbents Blog) I like the title, KILL INCUMBENTS!!!
Two stories from Moonbattery…I don’t know whether or not to be worried, pissed off or just completely annoyed.
(link) Moonbattery makes all things possible — except for good things. Professional bloviator Rhonda B. Graham, who is black, has called for the reinstitution of slavery.
Of course, it wouldn’t be called slavery, but rather “enforced community service.” She praises a plan by failed presidential candidate Chris Dodd to impose it. Reagan’s call for volunteerism was no good, because it was voluntary. But so long as it’s coerced, “volunteerism” will exemplify “the new American patriotism at work.” Clodd wants to sentence all high school students to performed 100 hours of community service, as though they were criminals.

Michelle Obama “clarifies” her statement. You call this clarifying!?
Thursday, February 21st, 2008
I’m checking out the liberal blogs and I can’t help laughing at the pure idiocy some of these people exhibit.
Here you had Michelle Obama clearly stating her disdain for this country, but the story in the minds of idiot liberals is we (evil right wingers) twisted her words, or we took them out of context, or misunderstood what she said.
I heard what she fucken said and I understood clearly.
Below are some random quotes from some libs on this issue, but look at the last comment, the perfect example of the type of liberal idiot fucks she was speaking to.
If you had checked out the liberal blogs when Michelle’s comments were making the rounds, nobody on the left disagreed with them, in fact, as the dude below did they applauded her comments.
Look Michelle Obama is off the charts smart, much smarter than her fraud husband; she knew exactly what she was saying and meant every damm word.
What I don’t get is why she felt the need to “clarify.” The only people she pissed off were the people who are not going to vote for her “empty suit” husband anyway.
Most of Obama’s fans are guilty white people who believe that by supporting this dude despite knowing nothing about him, they are eradicating the ills of racism in American society.
Michelle Obama in private I bet says, “damm look at all of these rednecks coming out to hear my Boo recycle some mindless garbage, but those little white girls better keep their hand off of my man!”
She is amazed, as am I that white folks are turning out in record numbers to show their utter disdain for Hillary and her cheating ass husband. Democrats are gleeful at the opportunity to burry the Clinton once and for all.
Bottom line, Michelle did not have to clarify jack, liberal Democrats seek to gain and remain in power by pandering to the most intellectually vacant and misery filled folks in our society.
As I said before, dissing America is part of the liberal politicians’ playbook. Michelle was simply articulating liberal Democratic philosophy.
******
******
Even in this “clarifying” speech, she bemoans the lack of opportunities for American children. I’m thinking is this bitch crazy, lack of fucken opportunities? Talk about someone who never studied black history.
Focusing on today’s black youth, we have gone from armed military escort into America’s schools to 70 percent dropout rate and debate over baggy pants.
Hey Michelle, is Obama going to make these fucken people get an education?
Opportunities my ass!
*****
Michelle misspoke and she has clarified it. What does Michelle need to apologize for?
She just said something dumb and has now clarified it.
She said something dumb and has clarified it. EVERY politician says something DUMB during a campaign. They are just human. I remember that both Bush and Kerry said STUPID things during their campaigns. People jump all over it and they clarified it and people move on.
Its sad how the American media is so skilled at twisting peoples words out of context to make a story out of it. Isn’t the media supposed to be impartial?
She is a true patriot - great to see that she is addressing the controversy over remarks that were widely re-edited to remove context and make them look inflamatory.
THIS IS THE KIND OF MORONIC JACKASS MICHELLE WAS SPEAKING FOR…
there are a few really good reasons to be ashamed of our country right now: how about ….
Suspension of Habeas Corpus?
Preemptive Wars?
Extraordinary Rendition?
Torture?
You swelling with pride yet?
Or maybe you’d like a happy trip down memory lane so you can remember all the reasons we have to be panting at the knees of idiotic jingoist everytime they bark…
Let’s see …we emulated the British by maintaining slaves, got uppity with the Brits because we didn’t want to pay exorbitant taxes for their stupid wars–but still kept our slaves.
That was our BIG revolution. Filled with moral clarity and light, ain’t it?
Oh, yeah, we expanded West, murdering and disenfrachising the Indians as we went- a few million, give or take a hundred thousand or so.
Oh, yeah, than there was that thing we did with Mexico when we like took Texas, and California.
Oh, yeah, and than that Philipine thing, where we slaughtered a bunch of lousy muslims and covered our bullets in pig’s fat, just to make them feel good about it.
Oh yeah, then there was the Robber Baron era in which we became an industrial power on the backs of many a wage enslaved immigrant.
What’s not to be proud of?
And man, I haven’t even gotten to the 20th century when we finally doned or emperor’s armor for real: Dresden, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Vietnam, Chile, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Iraq….Geez. We can be proud of all of that, can’t we?
Point being, claiming you have to be proud of this history isn’t just fanciful, it’s a lie. I’m ashamed of much of our history, as you should be too, if you understand it at all.
I rather believe Michelle when she said the “first time she’s really been proud of this country”…and I rather admire her for it.
Screw Billy O’ Reilly and the jingoistic assholes on the right. They’ve been needing a history lesson since they day they were born. Rather than apologize, why the aren’t we schooling them in what US history really means?
I guess I’ll have to do the diary on the Jim Crowe laws and what they meant for millions of afro americans less than a century ago.
I expected assholes like O’Reilly to forget or never know this stuff, but what’s up with the folks around here? It’s not like the history of US oppression toward minorities–both here and abroad– is a deep secret, is it?
You can lead a conservative to facts–but you can’t make him think.
Bitter lesson for McCain, never EVER trust liberals…
Thursday, February 21st, 2008
Rush in an e-mail to Politico:Well I’m one of those bloggers who does not give a shit about the McCain story. Rush’s quote basically sums it up;
“The story is not the story. The story is the Drive By media turning on its favorite maverick and trying to take him out. The media picked the GOP’s candidate, the NYT endorsed him while they sat on this story, and is now, with utter predictability, trying to destroy him.”“This is what you get when you walk across the aisle and try to make these people your friends. I’m not surprised in the least that the NYT would try to take out John McCain. Predicted this, in fact, way back in the early 2000s. Sen. McCain courted the media, cultivated them, even bragged that the media was his ‘base.’ I cringed when I heard it because the media turning on McCain was as predictable as the sun rising in the morning.”
We have strong disagreements with all the Republicans running for president. The leading candidates have no plan for getting American troops out of Iraq. They are too wedded to discredited economic theories and unwilling even now to break with the legacy of President Bush. We disagree with them strongly on what makes a good Supreme Court justice.
Still, there is a choice to be made, and it is an easy one. Senator John McCain of Arizona is the only Republican who promises to end the George Bush style of governing from and on behalf of a small, angry fringe. With a record of working across the aisle to develop sound bipartisan legislation, he would offer a choice to a broader range of Americans than the rest of the Republican field.
Michelle Obama said it! No seriously she did, I heard her!
Wednesday, February 20th, 2008
I’m just scanning sites and blogs peeping the buzz on Michelle Obama. No rhyme or reason to these quotes. Mostly posing as reference and to kinda catalogue. I’m just noting that her quote is sparking a tremendous amount of discussion on the web and talk radio.
As I told this gentleman, I left a brief remark on his site; he has since left me a brief note. Anywho as I have already said oft, she better clarify this remark and quickly or she better lay low for a few weeks. Obama can’t have any more bimbo eruptions.
(link) - “My God, who can sit here and say, ‘I’m ready to be president and first lady?’ ” she asked. But like her husband, she is running on biography, suggesting that her most important qualifications are her life experiences. Daughter of a Chicago city pump operator who had multiple sclerosis, she graduated from Princeton and Harvard and juggles her job as a hospital executive with motherhood and civic work.Mrs. Obama dislikes politics, friends and family confirmed, but not as much as she dislikes losing. Craig Robinson, her brother and the Brown University men’s basketball coach, said his sister did not enjoy organized sports when she was younger because she so hated defeat and even now pouts when a board game does not go her way.
His sister is brainy and warm, he said, but also a force to be reckoned with.“Everyone in the family is afraid of her,” he said with a smile. Asked if Mr. Obama used a nicotine patch to quit smoking, Mr. Robinson cracked up. “Michelle Obama!” he said. “That’s one hell of a patch right there!”
********
Vanity Fair quoted this statement, which seems resentful toward her husband and men in general:
“Mrs. Obama has a long history of speaking out about the ways in which men’s choices-particularly their professional ambitions-often leave their wives to pick up the slack, even when they have their own careers. “What I notice about men, all men, is that their order is me, my family, God is in there somewhere, but me is first,” she told the Chicago Tribune in 2004.
“And for women, me is fourth, and that’s not healthy.”
********
“I also have a strong disdain for Mrs. Obama. What bugs me is her bitchy attitude. She seems to have adopted a persona similiar to what you might see on a sitcom. On sitcoms, the husband is invariably a bumbling halfwit, whose hijinks are endured by an intelligent, long-suffering wife. Think “Everybody Loves Ramond” or “The Simpsons” for just two prominent examples.
I’ve seen interviews with Michelle Obama where she badmouths her husband, making him seem just as much of a hapless fool as Homer Simpson or Al Bundy. Affirmative Action candidate or not, her husband has a shot at the White House, and she’s going around telling people that he can’t dress himself without her?Damn, woman, show some respect for your man! I really don’t want that America-hating shrew as First Lady”
*******
(link) - I’m sure it’s hard to campaign and speak frequently without misspeaking or conveying something other than you mean. It’s certainly true with blogging, and public speaking is even more prone to errors. I would also understand a young person like Michelle Obama who might be enthusiastic about American politics for the first time, but she sounded like she really meant this is the first time in her adult life she has been proud of America.
*****
(link) - As some have pointed out, Obama’s message of hope is based primarily on the assumption that the United States is a miserable country where no one can prosper, succeed, and be happy. His wife apparently feels the same way.
In a discussion of recent comments made by Michelle Obama, Bill O’Reilly took a call from a listener who stated that, according to “a friend who had knowledge of her,” Obama ” ‘is a very angry,’ her word was ‘militant woman.’ “
O’Reilly later stated: “I don’t want to go on a lynching party against Michelle Obama (odd choice of words from Mr. O) unless there’s evidence, hard facts, that say this is how the woman really feels. If that’s how she really feels — that America is a bad country or a flawed nation, whatever — then that’s legit. We’ll track it down.”
Democratic insiders have set up a new independent 527 organization called the American Leadership Project (ALP) to help Hillary Clinton beat Barack Obama in Ohio — and possibly Texas and Pennsylvania as well.The group will use TV ads, mail, and phone communications to target white women under 50 in several Ohio cities, including Cleveland, Columbus, and Youngstown.
If there are any excess funds, ads will also target Latinos in Texas and middle-class families in Pennsylvania, ABC News reports.
ALP has developed three ads promoting the idea that Obama is a talker and not a doer. The ads are called “If speeches could solve problems” — and while they don’t specifically mention Obama, they will contrast Obama and Clinton on issues of importance to middle-class voters, such as the economy, health care, and the mortgage crisis.
Real ‘Work’? Clinton Swipes at Chelsea’s Profession
Wednesday, February 20th, 2008
ABC News’ Jennifer Parker and Eloise Harper Report: Sen. Hillary Clinton took a swipe at her daughter’s profession today at an economic roundtable discussion at a restaurant in Parma, Ohio, suggesting wealthy investment bankers and hedge fund managers on Wall Street aren’t doing real ‘work.’The former first lady’s daughter, Chelsea Clinton, works for New York-based hedge fund Avenue Capital Group. She previously worked in New York for McKinsey & Company, her first job after graduating with her master’s degree from Oxford University.
“We also have to reward work more,” Clinton told a small group of Ohio residents today. “and by that, I mean, I have people in New York working on Wall Street as investment managers, as hedge fund executives. Under the tax code, they can pay a lower percentage of their income in taxes on $50 million dollars, than a teacher, or a nurse, or a truck driver in Parma pays on $50,000. That’s very discouraging to people.”
I’m jealous! Why don’t I get cool fan mail like Michelle Malkin?

Michelle Malkin,
No matter how many white men you fuck and no matter how many white asses you kiss, you will always be “A wanna be white woman”, silly ass Bitch..
Except Bitch,” 2 asians fucking, don’t make a white”. Do you really think Mrs. Obama gives a fuck about what you think about her?
“Obama’s communist connection adds to mounting public concern about a candidate who has come out of virtually nowhere, with a brief U.S. Senate legislative record, to become the Democratic Party frontrunner for the U.S. presidency,” he wrote.In Obama’s book, “Dreams From My Father,” he repeatedly refers to his friend and adviser as “Frank.”
“The reason is apparent: Davis was a known communist who belonged to a party subservient to the Soviet Union. In fact, the 1951 report of the Commission on Subversive Activities to the Legislature of the Territory of Hawaii identified him as a CPUSA member. What’s more, anti-communist congressional committees, including the House Un-American Activities Committee (HUAC), accused Davis of involvement in several Communist front organizations,” Kincaid said.
Kincaid noted Obama has admitted attending “social conferences” and seeing Marxist literature. “But he ridicules the charge of being a ‘hard-core academic Marxist,’ which was made by his colorful and outspoken 2004 U.S. Senate opponent, Republican Alan Keyes.”
If you’ve been listening to me for a good portion of my 38 years in talk radio, you know that I have never been one to see a Communist under every duvet. I recognized the threat of Communism, and realized that our colleges and universities were just chock full of Marxist professors. After all, where else are you going to go when you can’t survive in the private sector?
There are times, though, when the “C” word should be invoked – and not just to describe Jane Fonda. One of those times would be when you have someone running for president of the United States who has shown a somewhat unusual level of interest in Communist philosophy.
Yesterday on the show, I asked the listeners to tell me what Barack Obama has actually accomplished. Not much, it seems. So now let’s move on to a different idea … Barack Obama’s childhood mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, was a communist. You’ve heard me mention many times that Barack Obama had an affinity to communist professors in his day. Well now it’s time to get down to the nitty-gritty details of what exactly that means.
If you read the linked story you’ll find that Frank Marshall Davis was a publicly identified member of the Communist Party USA. Davis, a black writer, was accused of being involved in several communist-front organizations by the House Un-American Activities Committee.
Obama, in his book, Dreams From My Father, refers to Davis repeatedly as just “Frank” … assumingly because Obama is not a stupid man and did not want to show the world that his mentor is a card-carrying Communist. So what does Obama tell us about Frank? Well Frank was a poet who visited his family in Hawaii. Frank was, according to Obama, “a contemporary of Richard Wright and Langston Hughes during his years in Chicago…” Frank was “his old Black Power dashiki self” who gave Obama advice on his career and his college education.
Well someone finally put two and two together … “Frank” was the same Frank Marshall Davis, black communist writer. In March of 2007 Gerald Horne, a contributing editor of the Communist Party journal Political Affairs, made a speech at the reception of the Communist Party USA archives at the Tamiment Library at NYU. His speech was called “Rethinking the History and Future of the Communist Party.” Here’s what professor Horne (a fellow communist) had to say:
… deploring these convictions in Hawaii was an African-American poet and journalist by the name of Frank Marshall Davis, who was certainly in the orbit of the CP – if not a member – and who was born in Kansas and spent a good deal of his adult life in Chicago, before decamping to Honolulu in 1948 at the suggestion of his good friend Paul Robeson. Eventually, he befriended another family – a Euro-American family – that had migrated to Honolulu from Kansas and a young woman from this family eventually had a child with a young student from Kenya East Africa who goes by the name of Barack Obama, who retracing the steps of Davis eventually decamped to Chicago. In his best selling memoir ‘Dreams of my Father’, the author speaks warmly of an older black poet, he identifies simply as “Frank” as being a decisive influence in helping him to find his present identity as an African-American, a people who have been the least anticommunist and the most left-leaning of any constituency in this nation – though you would never know it from reading so-called left journals of opinion.
So what do we have here? A communist helping the Democrat front runner being “a decisive influence in helping (Barack Obama) find his identity”? Curious, to say the least.
Frisco’s Mayor to pay “climate aide” $160,000 a year!
Wednesday, February 20th, 2008
The brilliant scam continues. I have said often, global warming is not about “saving the planet” it’s about money, jobs, research dollars, growing gubment.
In his quest to make San Francisco the greenest city in the nation, Mayor Gavin Newsom recently created a $160,000-a-year job for a senior aide and gave him the ambitious-sounding title of director of climate protection initiatives.
One might expect someone with such an exalted handle to solve global warming and save the rain forest all in a day’s work.
But the new climate protection initiatives director is just the latest person to join the city payroll in the name of tackling global climate woes, raising questions about whether environmentalism is becoming the latest excuse for a bloating government payroll.
San Francisco has at least two dozen other city employees already working directly on climate issues at a cost to taxpayers of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
“Although it sounds very well intentioned, and perhaps even necessary, I’m concerned this is a case where eco-chic has gone out of control,” said Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi, the only Green Party member on the Board of Supervisors.
Newsom’s critics in City Hall have pounced on the amorphous “climate protection” title and have blasted the mayor for creating the new role - as well as for creating new jobs for oth
