“…I understand when you're running for office you sometimes think the world revolves around you -- that is not always true and it is not true in this case….’ Dana Parino
I keep promising myself I am going to leave it alone. I try to keep from writing about Barack Obama. I really do. I swear. Durn, what does the little twitty Obamassiah do but go and give me more you know what to write about. Dang blast it all!
I’ve tried to detail the Battle at the Kennesit as best I can. As a historian ... more»
Earlier today, I received an email. I cannot go into the details other than the fact that evidently, in order for a person to get tickets to an Obama event, they must sell their souls to work for Obama. Tickets require work. Work includes going door to door like certain religions (think about the one Michael Jackson belongs too) seeking converts. I emailed back and told her this sounds like some sort of a cult. Low and behold (heavenly choir please as a beam of light shines from the heavens onto Obama's saintly head) I find ... more»
The RNC has created a new site designed to for people who want to ask Barack Obama a question. It is a great idea. There are a heck of a lot of questions I would like to ask, such as: When did you last use illegal substances? But I am behaving myself. The Dems have a problem here. Barack Obama is not a good candidate. Roger Simon has put it so succinctly – Obama is not the man for our times. I think this puts Barack Obama into perspective. Should a person who cannot take criticism be ... more»
I think this is a job for the new RNC site Can We Ask!
My father has made the connection between Barack Obama’s statement that there are 57 ( maybe 58) states and has tracked it back to the John Kerry Campaign of 2004. He thinks Obama picked it up from Heinz 57!
I want to know when we added 7 new states. Where are they? What are their names? Have they had their primaries yet? Did Barack Obama win their popular vote? Did he pick up their Super-Delegates? Is Barack Obama Dumber Than Dirt?
Nothing is more annoying than either a paper cut or a head cold. I have the latter. I had no sleep at all last night. I know one thing, I've proven that Air-Bourn really works. I quit using it about a month ago. This is the first cold /flu I've had in at least 2 years. I've been using the product religiously during that time.

AIRING AYERS & OBAMA A Pink Flamingo guest article by Sally Vee
We have Mayor Richard M. Daley of Chicago to thank for the reinvention and legitimization of the vile human being known as William Ayers. Daley magnanimously forgave and waved his royal hand over the head of extreme leftist/terrorist Bill Ayers, giving him more influence on America than we can fathom -- it is very likely Ayers has directly influenced your own children or those in your neighborhood. Mayor Daley hired Ayers to do the one job where he could spread his neo-marxist poison in the largest, surest measure ... more»
Once again the voices of doom are declaring the GOP dead and buried. According to the most recent WSJ poll, evidently the GOP isn’t well favored by voters this year – or are they? The eternals are here. This is a poll for Registered Voters and not Likely Voters.
Cindy McCain is not being treated decently by the liberal media, I think. So what if she is rich. John Kerry’s wife was worth a fortune and the liberal press ignored it. This woman, worthy of being a First Lady, is being treated horribly by liberal ... more»
Or – is all the hype political and designed to help the Dems over the Republicans? Are there reasonable solutions that may simply involve the way third world ... more»
WHY SHOULD I BE FORCED TO ATONE FOR THE SINS OF MY ANCESTORS?
Today, Dave at Oricus links to a commentary at Fire Dog Lake about a Peggy Noonan column. I have long ago said the venerable Ms Noonan is not firing on all thrusters. I think this time she has basically driven over a cliff. On April 28 at the WSJ Noonan wrote:
“…Main thought. Hillary Clinton is not Barack Obama's problem. America is Mr. Obama's problem. He has been tagged as a snooty lefty, as the glamorous, ambivalent candidate from Men's Vogue, the candidate who loves America ... more»
The great irony here is Barack Obama’s less than honorable behavior isn’t going to matter a bit to his supporters. They want change. Well, they got it. This adult (I don’t think he’s a ‘real’ man but a Plastic Ken) is so full of prevarications and canards, he makes Bill Clinton appear honest! It makes you appreciate being a Republican.
Barack Obama wants us to believe this is not the same man he knew, as he denounced Jeremiah Wright. Granted the man isn't flying on all thrusters, but somehow it is just too little too late, not that it bothers me! So, today at lunch, while accosting the husband of one of my best friends (he's a Dem, she's Republican) I just thought this should be the new Obama Theme. (Besides, it's just plain good music!)
THE BEGINNING OF THE END? Larry Johnson at No Quarter is heralding the End of Barack Obama. He thinks today’s debacle at the National Press Club is going to destroy Barack Obama’s chances. It isn’t going to help, that’s for sure. Johnson quotes a WPost piece:
“…Speaking before an audience that included Marion Barry, Cornel West, Malik Zulu Shabazz of the New Black Panther Party and Nation of Islam official Jamil Muhammad, Wright praised Louis Farrakhan, defended the view that Zionism is racism, accused the United States of terrorism, repeated his view that the government created ... more»
Evidently it is perfectly acceptable for other Presidents and candidates to have tempers. It is acceptable for anyone but John McCain. Strange, isn’t it? LBJ had one. They say JFK’s was explosive. Lincoln had one. And George Washington’s temper was so bad he was known to punch out arguing officers, and had a mouth so foul he is secretary would shake in terror when he would was “poetic”, so what’s wrong with John McCain having one? (Even Ronald Reagan had one).
It seems to me if a person isn’t capable of losing his/her temper there’s something wrong. Not ... more»
I am sick and tired of Barack Obama. For awhile I allowed myself to be seduced into the possibility that I was simply being snarky about him, but I’ve realized that’s not the problem. He and his violate so many things I hold near and dear. I’ve decided, recently, that I’m no longer lowering my standards and being tolerant of alternative political ideals and actions. I believe what I believe. The man is an idiot. (Stop the ACLU) The man does not have the courage to take a stand on anything. I am tired of ... more»
“…As a state legislator he was even more off-center. In 1996, he opposed the Defense of Marriage Act, which the Senate approved 85-14 and President Clinton signed into law. He twice voted "present" on a bill to ban partial-birth abortions. In 1999, he was the only state senator to oppose a law that prohibited early prison release for sex offenders.Mr. Obama also backed a total ban on handguns, a move his campaign now says was the result of a rogue aide filling out a questionnaire. But Mr. ... more»
I’ve been collecting links about financing and John McCain’s funding problems. There are times when I like to do this and see what develops. I think today the Dems have revealed their hand when the filed suit to keep Big Mac on the public financing dole. In doing so they have revealed their game plan. HAMSTRING HIM ANY WAY POSSIBLE!
I think we are now starting to see a pattern. Keep throwing you know what into the fan and see what sticks. Remember when ceiling fans first became popular? We were teens at the ... more»
One of the things that bothers me about Barack Obama is his obvious lack of experience and his abject inexperience and immaturity even though he was born in 1961. Perhaps it is just our culture that coddles men now. Maybe it is his relative inexperience and the fact that he has lived a fairly sheltered existence, with little actual life experience – very little seasoning. I don’t know all the ups and downs of his life, all the little disappointments and heartaches. From his basic biography it is obvious he lived the life many kids ... more»
I have been challenged by someone I respect (a Canadian liberal) over my dislike of Barack Obama. He thinks I am demonizing Obama. It started me thinking. I try to be fair. Am I being fair to him simply because he is a Democrat. My friend thinks Obama is a great man that I am treating unfairly. Is he? I am seriously trying to go after Obama only on the issues and the fact that I think he is a liar. Is he really a liar with shady friends, or am I nit-picking ... more»
Barack Obama’s “real life” experience reminds me of those ‘entry level’ classifieds where they are a front to get people to do commission only hard labor. “No experience necessary”. So the NYTimes has this piece where Obama says real life experience is more important than a life-time of foreign policy experience.
“…“Experience in Washington is not knowledge of the world,” he continued, provoking laughter among those present. “This I know. When Senator Clinton brags, ‘I’ve met leaders from 80 countries,’ I know what those trips are like. I’ve been on them. You go from the airport to ... more»
I have a lovely little accumulation of Barack Obama goodies. With each passing day it becomes more and more obvious this person lacks the character to be called a “man”. He has built a life and a political career on a house of cards and lies. When called to task he accuses everyone of racism. There comes a time when it’s like the little boy who cried wolf. I like the little boy analogy because there is no way you can consider Barack Obama ‘a real man’. I go back to my belief that Barack ... more»
Are Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama simply more of the same or am I so biased against the Dems I can’t see the logical truth? From my biased, uber-GOP version of the world, I don’t mind admitting I am biased, but it sure looks to me like we have been dealing with some seriously flawed individuals.
We Republicans have an arduous vetting process aided by the liberal press who delights in pointing out every little fault and frailty to the pint where anyone who even considers running as a Republican is out of their ... more»
Go through the FEC reports on Obama. I like the Chicago one. Why do some people donate fifty bucks a half dozen times in one day? I think these donations are set up on a credit card or bank payout system. Just start looking at them. Look at Feb 15, 2008. I see where people made a number of small donations that day. Why are there no donations from Tony Rezko? I don’t know how much to make of this since my donations to John McCain have not showed up, but my cousin’s $2300 to Hillary ... more»
You do realize John McCain is a chess player, thinking several moves ahead in the game. GWB is a poker player, and a good one. Barack Obama – well, he’s sure not a bowler. Obama’s more the Candlyland little kid who can’t handle criticism.
Take today for instance.
When a conservative radio talking head went for the jugular with Barack Obama at a John McCain rally, McCain immediately denounced him. Much weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth engulfed the conservative radio world as talk show hosts were quick to denounce Big Mac while they ... more»
