THE PINK FLAMINGO RECOMMENDS
View Article  Barack Obama, The Ron Paul of the DNC!
OBAMA BAD FOR DNC, PAUL BAD FOR RNC
Harold Hutchinson picked up on something from last night’s Dem debate.  (acid indigestion, probably).  He refers us to AJ Strata (as usual) who has an interesting analysis of one of Obama’s military statements. http://strata-sphere.com/blog/index.php/archives/5104   Strata then comes to the same conclusion I’ve reached.  Obama is an idiot!

Have you noticed something I have about Barack Obama?  He doesn’t have much of a sense of humor, cannot laugh at himself, and is terribly thin-skinned.   He also must have the last word.  Now I recognize three of these characteristics because I have them, save ...   more »
View Article  Conservatives, “Babykiller” & the Big Mac Attack
SAME OLD SAME OLD?


This is a very convoluted post.  I’m going for the tabloid headline because I am annoyed to the point nearing fury.  There are several things going on here and I think they are all connected.  It is rather like follow the bouncing ball.  My ‘gut’ reaction is this is all offered up now, all the you know what (It’s Lent and I gave up profanity) to help make Obama look good.  The thing that caught my eye was something posted on Race 42008 last night.  It is rather detailed, but once again, I think it is ...   more »

FEC REPORTS DON'T LIE

Today the Palmetto Scoop has published an article that has just plain old made my day. Back in late November, Young Master Marcus Epstein took offense to something I wrote about he and his critics. (my response) The Palmetto Scoop has also been treated to a few of Master Epstein's complaints these past few months.  Today's discovery, a record of a reimbursement from the Buddy Witherspoon campaign to Epstein just about the time he "did not" participate in a fundraiser for Witherspoon (like Bill Clinton did not...) has surfaced in the quarterly FEC reports. ...   more »
View Article  Those Wacky Maricopa GOP Nazis Strike Again!
SPRINGTIME FOR HITLER

Our favorite liberal site, The Feathered blank (it's Lent and I'm not using those words) has word that our favorite Maricopa County Republican Party Nazi is at it again.  Remember that little Maricopa County GOP County Convention where John McCain was slaughtered in the straw poll?  I trust McCain supporters are proud of that, considering that J. T. Ready and his bunch of little buddies were at it again, distributing neo-Nazi and KKK related material to one and all at the meeting, and were not asked to leave!  I don't now about you, but doesn't it make ...   more »
View Article  I Told You So - Sucide Bomber Conservatives Strike Again
A NEW THIRD PARTY

Before we get to this new American Conservative Party, how about a little Ollie North Smackdown of them? Leave it to Ollie North.  His endorsement for John McCain makes our Suicide Bomber Conservatives look like the petty little despots they are.

THE AMERICAN CONSERVATIVE PARTY
Pam Meister’s PJ Media article today thinks conservatives could doom the GOP in the fall. At least she is hoping it will.  She's another suicide bomber conservative.
“…Votes do count indeed, a timely lesson not only for Republicans, but for Democrats, Independents, and politicians. Shawn Goodwin of Philadelphia, PA, takes ...   more »
View Article  The Conservative Damnation of John McCain Continues
JUST LUMP HIM IN WITH SOROS?
I saw a posting on The Hill Chronicles that truly annoyed me today.  It is the perfect example of how World Net Daily, Jerome Corsi, and the Tanton hate machine have sucked in good, decent people with their lies.  John McCain’s Reform Institute is damned by taking a donation from the Tides Foundation because they took a $4 million donation from Teresa Heinz Kerry.  The organization is also damned because Corsi says that Arianna Huffington has been on it’s advisory board.
“…Arianna Huffington, syndicated columnist and creator of the HuffingtonPost.com, has served on the ...   more »

THIRD PARTY IDIOCY

Last week I brought you the story of the Simcox, Viguerie, and Alan Keyes plan to scam a third party run to the point where they could line their pockets, once again.  Evidently I wasn't far off the mark.  It appears as though the usual suspects are already starting to flock around the Constitution Party and Chuck Baldwin's considerable pockets.  The Constitution Party is run by Howard Phillips who claims "Christian" and conservative purity and a loyalty to Reagan, but when Reagan was in office, Phillips was one of the first to betray him.

View Article  The Heritage Foundation Likes That Mexican Stimulus Package Malkin & Rush Dislike!
MALKIN LIES, REASON DIES

Once again Malkin
 goes ballistic over something she knows very little about, but since it says “Mexico” and it might assist Mexico, and all Mexicans are evil, then it is automatically bad.  Hot Air waxes poetic because Rush mentions Malkin. Hot Air’s link to Rush. What is even more fascinating is that one of Malkin’s “gods” The Heritage Foundation APPROVES of this move. THE HERITAGE FOUNDATION approves of the Merida Initiative.   I guess on Malkin’s part, ignorance is bliss as she continues to harp on what is a very good thing and a long time ...   more »

WE MUST ALL FORGIVE

This is a funny time of year for me.  From about now until the middle of March is when the ‘bad stuff’ happens in my family.  During the past three years I’ve lost my beloved Clancy (miniature poodle) Siggy, Brunhilda, GeorgieW, and years ago, my grandparents.  Also three years ago starting around the first of March my mother started having severe heart problems that lead to her heart stopping twice.  For the next 8 weeks or so I think my family walks on egg-shells.  

I think I mention this because we’ve come full cycle in ...   more »

THE WISDOM OF STAR TREK
We have been far to serious lately.  Tonight we are going to have some fun.  A great philosopher once said “Everything I need to know if life I learned from Star Trek.” While I do dislike casting John McCain in the role of T’Pring, most infamous scheming hussy in the entire Star Trek universe (which is considerable).  Unfortunately, it is a perfect analogy.  The wit and wisdom of The Great Bird of the Galaxy is undisputed.  He had a very real connection with the foibles of humanity.  His vision of the future and commentary on ...   more »

THE BIRTH OF A CULT

From the Chris Wallace interview with GWB

“…WALLACE: Do you think there's a rush to judgment about Barack Obama. Do you think voters know enough about him?
BUSH: I certainly don't know what he believes in. The only foreign policy thing I remember he said was he's going to attack Pakistan and embrace Ahmadinejad. I think I commented that in a press conference when I was asked about that.
WALLACE: I hope not. But so you don't think that we know enough about him or what he stands...
BUSH: It doesn't seem like it to ...   more »

THE SCAM TO STOP MCCAIN

Captain Ed warns us that now some Dem operatives are manipulating a few bratty conservatives to rebel and deny John McCain the nomination.
“…However, not everyone wants to put the divisions behind them. When I got to Blogger Row this morning, the desks had been papered by Patriot PAC. They have launched a new website, OpenGOPConvention, to urge voters to deny McCain the outright nomination. Headlined "CONTAIN MCCAIN!", they want Republicans to wait for a "real Ronald Reagan conservative" -- as if no one thought of the idea before. They also left copies of ...   more »

TANTON'S EMPIRE STRIKES BACK?

Earlier today I emailed a friend and told her we were going to see the anti-immigration “conservatives” pull something nasty.  Well, Mark Kirkorian has fired the first shot.
“…'A Third-Party Candidate for President May Be Essential for Limiting the Damage to Republicans in Congress.' Over in the Corner, Mark Kirkorian is talking about a third party candidate in a warm, fuzzy tone. He's thinking of a ticket that would attempt fusion between the Libertarian and Constitution parties…”

It's the anti-immigration supporters who are going to be the backbone of this "new" third party.  Watch to see ...   more »
View Article  Lent Is A Time to Forgive
FORGIVING BIG MAC

I think it is time to call a truce.  I am tired of the fighting.  It is counter-productive.  It is hurting us, and it is empowering “the enemy”.  And – when I say “the enemy” I am talking about the Democrats.  It is Lent, a time for reflection, penance, forgiveness, and personal growth.  I don’t quite understand how vilifying a decent human being so that Rush Limbaugh can cover up for his abject hatred of the man is going to do anyone any good.   This said, I am terribly impressed with Hugh Hewitt and am sorry I ...   more »

WHAT WOULD WASHINGTON DO?

“However [political parties] may now and then answer popular ends, they are likely in the course of time and things, to become potent engines, by which cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled men will be enabled to subvert the power of the people and to usurp for themselves the reins of government, destroying afterwards the very engines which have lifted them to unjust dominion.”

Among his other attributes, George Washington was a man of vision.  He was terribly concerned about the way political parties would eventually degrade into the playground of what he called cunning, ambitious, and unprincipled ...   more »

THE DISTURBED WHITE SOUTHERN MALE
According to Ruffini there is something seriously disturbed about the Southern, White Scots Irish Male.

View Article  How Hitler Rose to Power
COULD IT HAPPEN AGAIN?
Have you ever wondered about Hitler’s rise to power?  I was fortunate enough to have a wonderful history teacher in high school who not only was a student of Nazi Germany, but spent many months as a POW in an Nazi prison camp.  He escaped and ended up with Patton’s 3rd Army in Sicily, then through Germany.  He spent quite a bit of time on the rise of Nazi Germany because he thought there was a lesson in it.

THE REEK OF DESPERATION

Dr. Jack Wheeler, the Jack Armstrong of the “Reagan Era” has penned one of the most mendacious pieces of trash I’ve ever seen.  Naturally the object of his wrath is John McCain, who is evil and must be destroyed.  It doesn’t matter how the Right does it.  If they must resort to debunked lies, innuendo, half-truth, and character assassination all’s fair, right?  This time Jack Wheeler has a two-fer.  Not only does he get to carry out a hit for the mainstream conservative anti-McCain world, but he also gets to spread lies and innuendo about Hillary ...   more »

HOUSTON, WE HAVE A PROBLEM
Today while I was in Starbucks, this college kid who goes to our church, sings in the choir, came in, for some juice.  Full disclosure is needed here – he works at a rival coffee shop a few blocks farther down the street. He was very excited over the fact that one of his instructors held a straw poll today – and Barack Obama won every class. I expressed my dismay.  He is enamored of Obama, BTW.  

“What Obama’s ethics problems?”

“He has none.  Look at the man there now.”

I’ve heard that the buy for this disgusting thing brought to you by Citizens United is the object of a $20 million ad buy.  Yes it is legal.  Is it moral?  According to Raw Story, CUPVF (Citizens United Political Victory Fund) began its anti-McCain push last March.  What is the Bob Novak connection?  David Bossie is the President of Citizens United.  Bob Novak wrote the forward of his book.   Bossie is tight with Barbara Comstock, who is a senior Romney advisor.  Bossie is infamous for his dirty tricks.
