Anxious Anarchists Attack One of Their Top Allies Against McCain

SJ Reidhead — Tue, 26 Aug 2008 18:03:56 -0600

MALKIN ATTACKS MCCAIN
(AGAIN)
(WHAT’Z NEW?)

Obnoxious 9/11 Truther Alex Jones got the best of Michelle Malkin. He is a loud, vile individual, who reminds me of a cur dog who needs to have its barker removed. This said, Mz Malkin, in search of a headline and a story, became the story, her little self when Jones and his tawdry bunch of associates recognized her. As much as I dislike Michelle Malkin and thing that some of Jones’ accusations had a ring of truth about them, no one, needs to be treated the way she was.

On the other hand, ...

“You Tell Them I’m Coming, and Hell’s Coming With Me”

MY VENDETTA RIDE

A well known conspiracy-theory writer, Michael Piper Collins took offense to a piece I wrote about Jerome Corsi. I cited and did a copy/paste of an SPLC entry about Jerome Corsi appearing on The Political Cesspool. The paragraphs I cited are below:

"...Perhaps Corsi’s most telling appearance, however, has been on The Political Cesspool, an overtly racist, anti-Semitic radio show hosted by self-avowed white nationalist James Edwards. Corsi was interviewed on the Cesspool on July 20 and is scheduled to appear again this Sunday, August 17, joining a recent guest roster that has included Christian Identity pastor ...

Jerome Corsi Swiftboating Obama & The GOP at the Same Time

SJ Reidhead — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 22:07:36 -0600

THE GREAT CORSI CON

Barack Obama's camp is getting a little nervous. They are working to submit yet another new slogan. John McCain is hammering him. He needs to be concentrating on Barack Obama, not answering questions about Conservatives Gone Wild. My previous post features a round up of the goings on with Jerome Corsi and his little book about Barack Obama. He is one of the problem conservatives. These people seem to have slipped a cog somewhere and are no longer residing, not just in the 'real world' but the same planet as the rest of us. They don't ...

Jerome Corsi - Conservative - Not Republican - New Obama Book

SJ Reidhead — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 11:58:18 -0600

ANOTHER FAKE

Jerome Corsi is once again being feted through the conservative world with his new "expose" on Barack Obama. He is a blessing to the conservative cause. He is helping win the war against Obama, right? He may be "right" but he sure the heck isn't Republican. Jerome Corsi is another one of those conservative fakes. Have you seen anywhere on the "conservative" media or FOX where Corsi is exposed as something other than Republican?

No.

Why?

Well, everyone needs to believe the cannard that ALL CONSERVATIVES ARE REPUBLICAN. They are not. The conservatives who do the worst damage ...

ICE Allows Another Detainee to Die in Agony

THE DEATH OF HUMANITY

Imagine being in a system where you are assigned an upper bunk, but are dying from cancer, and need to be assisted to get up and down three times a day for a head count. Imagine not being allowed to have pain killers for the cancer that had invaded your spine because you were too sick to go stand in line for them to be given to you. Imagine losing well over 100 pounds, going for help and being told you were faking. Imagine not being able to talk to your lawyer because you were too ...

Tancredo Loses Big in His Own District (and he's not even running)

SJ Reidhead — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 16:51:44 -0600

A DESERVED SLAP IN THE FACE!

I love politics. I love this country. I have a tremendous amount of respect for the American People. You can only con them for so long, then they smarten up enough at arrogance and thumb their nose. People get voted into office and they get voted out. Then there are some who are so durn ______ (deleted) but are smart enough to read the righting on the wall and get the heck out of Dodge before it it is too late. Yes, I am mixing metaphors, and indulging in the pathetic art of the ...

John McCain Is a Political Genius!

SJ Reidhead — Wed, 13 Aug 2008 19:11:48 -0600

I AM IN AWE

For the past few days I've been listening to the usual conservative sources (as in "round up the usual sources") once again turn Lindsey into the demonic entity akin to the Black Death. They are also trying to promote the idea that Lindsey has turned on John McCain. I know Lindsey. The other day I read something in the fine print about promoting nuclear energy. Anyone who knows Lindsey, South Carolina and Nuclear Energy knows the game's afoot.

Not only have they introduced a halfway decent energy proposal, but Lindsey has turned into "bad ...

Electoral Votes, John McCain & Painting New Mexico Red

SJ Reidhead — Mon, 11 Aug 2008 19:34:23 -0600

THE GOP VOTE

If you look at the Electoral Vote Count for Sunday, August 10, things give Barack Obama a 53 point lead. If it weren't for the blue of Nevada, New Mexico and Colorado things would look rather well for the GOP, in fly-over country. It is as though there are two different countries. I'm still not all that certain we are going to lose Virginia. Nevada and Colorado are interesting. Nevada hasn't had a good poll in a month. New Mexico is listed blue but will end up going red. Let's face it, in order for John ...

Federation for American Immigration Reform Against Free Speech!

SJ Reidhead — Sat, 09 Aug 2008 22:12:21 -0600

SO MUCH FOR THE 1ST AMENDMENT!

There are more than a few of us who have been waiting for FAIR to finally take a mis-step. Maybe they have and maybe they haven't. In a recent press release, The Federation for American Immigration Reform is now calling on the prosecution of a member of Congress for saying something FAIR doesn't like. (From the Stein Report).

Once upon a time the United States was a Republic. We had a little piece of paper called the Bill of Rights. We had a Constitution and specific amendments to said Constitution. We cherished ...

How Extreme Environmentalist Liberals Hijacked the Conservative Agenda Part II

SJ Reidhead — Fri, 01 Aug 2008 20:25:46 -0600

HOW TO RUIN THE GOP

Have you ever felt like you’ve duped or played for a fool? What about that old adage, fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me? Well, conservatives have been played for fools, there is no other way to put it, by extreme environmentalists and anti-capitalist liberals determined to limit the population of the United States in order to save the planet.

The very real problem is conservatives have done such a good job of damning ALL liberal organizations that the honorable ones are thrown out with the scurrilous ones. And, ...

The Malicious Duplicity of Rush Limbaugh

SJ Reidhead — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 20:02:28 -0600

ENTERTAINMENT OR AN AGENDA?

This week Human Events is honoring Rush Limbaugh. Mark Levin has a Human Events column that can only be described as nothing but abject fawning, gushing, and outright worship. I am fully aware of Limbaugh’s good points. He is well known for his charitable work, and he donates a tremendous amount of money to very worth-while causes. He is one of the single largest donors to leukemia research. For that, I am personally grateful. His donations may have been the tipping point in the medical research that is keeping my cousin Jim alive (and maybe even ...

The False (Conservative) Unpopularity of John McCain

SJ Reidhead — Tue, 29 Jul 2008 20:08:42 -0600

CONSERVATIVES HATE HIM?

When is a conservative not a Republican? Are the one in the same? Or....can they be completely different party animals?

I have an article over on Right Pundits that is basically an edited version of one I posted on The Pink Flamingo last week. I am pointing it out simply because of the extreme way over the top comments by Ron Paul supporters who consider themselves the minion army of their savior, Ron Paul, who is going to be the GOP version of Barack Obama. If only the extreme, very evil, and very stupid Republicans would dump ...

Some Conservatives Are A Loser for the GOP

SJ Reidhead — Sat, 26 Jul 2008 17:56:21 -0600

THEY WILL NEVER LEARN!

How long is it going to take for Republicans to figure out that they are REPUBLICANS FIRST and conservatives second? Let's face it, the reason the GOP looks so bad and the reasons our candidates have been on this wonderful losing spree is because they were so darn busy pandering to hard line non Republican conservatives. There are any number of special interests out there who are conservative. I'm a "normal" conservative, but I am a Republican first. Maybe that's the term we need "normal" conservative as opposed to Reagan Revisionist Conservatives who wax poetic about ...

Getting Away With Murder in Pennsylvania

SJ Reidhead — Sat, 19 Jul 2008 18:52:50 -0600

DIFFERENT STORY?

If Luis Ramirez were an illegal immigrant who was part of a party of wild animals who beat a father to death, you would be hearing about it from Malkin and cover to cover on O'Reilly. Unfortunately, Luis Ramirez, an illegal immigrant is the man who died. He was brutally attacked and beaten to death by a group of high school football players in Shenandoah, Pennsylvania. They attacked him like a pack of wild animals, cursing him and telling him to to back to Mexico.

Evidently in Pennsylvania it is acceptable to murder illegal immigrants. According to the ...

More Evidence Malkin Biased Against McCain

SJ Reidhead — Fri, 18 Jul 2008 21:12:03 -0600

INTELLECTUAL DISHONESTY

There is this great and growing dishonest of the far right, embodied by such luminaries as Michelle Malkin, Patrick J. Buchanan, and Laura Ingraham. So, today Malkin is reporting that Republicans in the House are not donating to John McCain, as if they dislike him or something.

"...Looks like House Republicans are doing what a lot of grass-roots conservatives are doing–or rather not doing: Not giving John McCain cash. A divider, not a uniter? Via The Hill:..."

Malkin quotes from The Hill:

"...Few House Republicans have contributed to Sen. John McCain since he clinched the Republican nomination ...

Is Sheriff Joe the "SHakiest Gun in the West?"

SJ Reidhead — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 22:22:12 -0600

ARPAIO'S ERATIC BEHAVIOR

The Mayor of Phoenix considers Joe Arpaio the Shakiest Gun in the West!

"...Gordon, talking with News/Talk 92-3 KTAR's Darrell Ankarlo, said the sheriff has lost his focus and is not helping the county at all with reducing crime. "The continuing bizarre behavior of the sheriff, including last night's demonstration of anger and sarcasm, is continuing evidence that the stress and criticism of the office is affecting the sheriff's judgment," Gordon said...."I think with law enforcement, the last thing anybody wants is somebody with a gun, both that is angry and shaking," the mayor said. ...

Laura Ingraham Unvarnished

SJ Reidhead — Thu, 17 Jul 2008 21:48:52 -0600

LAURA'S MISFORTUNE

I know it isn't nice to laugh at someone's misfortune. I don't like Laura Ingraham any more than I like Ann Coulter or any of the other precious little conservative "witches". I think she is one of those conservatives who is not Republican and has done great damage to the GOP. I also don't mind admitting I think she was one of those responsible for the GOP's loss of the House and Senate in 2006. The thing is, the GOP isn't as bad as Ingraham, Limbaugh, and Hannity say it is. Let's just be honest and give them ...

Nicholas Corbett, Murder, Conservative Bloggers and the Border Patrol

SJ Reidhead — Wed, 16 Jul 2008 20:34:18 -0600

WHERE IS THE VETTING?

Yesterday I reported that Nicholas Corbett, a Border Patrol agent accused of murdering a few misc. illegals from Mexico had a history of violence. I also find it rather fascinating that Corbett was hired by the Border Patrol and retained, even though the following charges were filed.

1. Corbett was arrested on charges of assault and physical property damage in Cheltenham, PA.
2. He assaulted someone in Chandler, AZ in April of 2007
3. He threatened and assaulted individuals in Mesa, AZ in March of 2007.

In Cheltenhem, PA Corbett went to and damaged his ...

More Damning Evidence Against Nicholas Corbett

SJ Reidhead — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 22:51:50 -0600

PAST HISTORY OF ASSAULT & VIOLENCE

Do you remember back in the spring when BP agent Nicholas Corbett went on trial for murder? Every little anti-immigration blogger and supporter came to his defense, completely ignoring the evidence against him. Don't you find it rather interesting how people who would not condone this sort of behavior against any other ethnic group turn a blind eye when illegals from Mexico are assaulted?

Well, startling new evidence has surfaced against him.

"...In a motion filed Thursday in U.S. District Court in Tucson, Tyrone Mitchell, one of the prosecutors in the case, states that ...

NOTE: Hispanics Can Be Voters & Are People Too!

SJ Reidhead — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 08:24:32 -0600

DEAL WITH IT

John McCain understands that immigration reform is top priority. He, like George W. Bush, also understands that Hispanics are human beings. They are voters. They are NO DIFFERENT from anyone else. Unfortunately, there are any number of "conservatives" who are basically racist. The perfect example, this from Glenn Spencer's site:

"...McCain tells 'Tan Klan' so-called immigration reform is top priority..."
"...Los Angeles Times 'Tan Klan' Soiree: McCain loses microphone to rabid Mexican Reconquista..."

Once again the anti-immigration conservatives, spurred on by their talking points delivered by Dan Stein, the "voice" of the John Tanton network ...

A TALE OF TWO MEN

"...I was finding that prayer helped. It wasn't a question of asking for superhuman strength or for God to strike the North Vietnamese dead. It was asking for moral and physical courage, for guidance and wisdom to do the right thing. I asked for comfort when I was in pain, and sometimes I received relief. I was sustained in many times of trial...."John McCain

When the election season begins, we all wonder who is going to come out on top. You watch everyone primarily pandering and, while you see the differences, it all becomes ...

The Roots of the Anti-Immigration Movement - (one more time)

SJ Reidhead — Sat, 12 Jul 2008 21:17:01 -0600

MALKIN, TANTON & PLANNED PARENTHOOD

This morning, I discovered a fascinating comment concerning the article I posted about Malkin and LaRaza.

"I post on Michelles' blog on a regular basis and I am becoming very concerned about the level of anti-hispanic hatemongering that I see displayed there by both the hostess and some of her responders. Her hatred of John McCain and her willingness to derail his campaign is simply an extension of this.

It truly seems as though Ms. Malkin has lost all sense of proportion.

Her blog has been overrun by Paulians, supremacists, and freaks who are into ...

With Friends Like These...?

SOME CONSERVATIVES JUST DON'T GET IT

REPUBLICANS

When I hear conservatives wax poetic against John McCain, and some conservatives who swear up and down they are anti-abortion and yet plan to vote for Barack Obama (I'm related to at least one) I mention two words: Stevens & Ginsburg. If they aren't bright enough to figure out to whom I am referring, then there isn't much hope and they are true, clueless Barack Obama voters.

But - then there are the conservatives who do get it and are still determined to do everything in their power to insure ...

Hispanics Are People Too & They Vote!

SJ Reidhead — Fri, 20 Jun 2008 21:16:57 -0600

DOES THE STUPIDITY EVER END?

We are being treated to the usual hysterical Henny-Penny crocodile tears about the sky falling. There is weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth. The world as we know it is coming to an end. John McCain, that durn Republican, met with Hispanics. Can you believe it. John McCain had the audacity to meet with Hispanics! Those nasty Hispanics...they do it every time.

"..."He's one John McCain in front of white Republicans. And he's a different John McCain in front of Hispanics," Rosanna Pulido, a Latina who heads the Illinois Minuteman Project, told the ...

BREAKING: Are San Diego Minutemen Responsible for Friday Night Shootings? (repaired)

SJ Reidhead — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 18:16:48 -0600

OR IS IT JUST BLUSTER?

Friday night three people were hit by gun fire on the Mexican side of the border near Campo, CA. The Border Patrol is not answering questions.

The San Diego Minutemen claim to have been in the area and were armed, according to “founder” Jeff Schwilk. He claims three people were dead. The SPLC has linked the San Diego bunch to some fairly nasty associates. On June 11, Chris Simcox issued a statement called “Operation Open Season”. Is the shooting on the border coincidence, or the dimwit San Diego bunch taking advantage of ...

Once Again Hard-Line Immigration Reform Is A Loser

SJ Reidhead — Tue, 10 Jun 2008 20:42:47 -0600

ANOTHER ONE BITES THE DUST

Please pardon me while I gloat a bit. Racist Buddy Witherspoon, went down in flames this evening in his challenge to unseat Lindsey. Unfortunately, people don’t understand how well Lindsey is liked in South Carolina. While a few sore-heads complain about his immigration stance, they don’t speak for the rank and file Republican in SC.
From The State:

“…It was a vindication compared to his reception a year ago at the state GOP convention, when the crowd booed and shouted "No" at Graham's explanations of the immigration bill. He became the butt of criticism ...

METAMORPHOSIS

Any good Trekkie automatically associates the word Metamorphosis with the Trek Classic episode featuring Zefram Cochrane. Without giving you a detailed history of space flight, warp drive, first contact with the Vulcans thereby proving that Star Trek is salient to all aspects of life, simply – nah, nothing’s simple with Zefram Cochrane. Metamorphosis features a really bitchy Federation diplomat who was dying; the ship wrecked Cochrane, an interesting creature in love with Cochrane, and the wit and wisdom of James T. Kirk. Long story short, the alien merged with the dying Federation bitchy type. They were able to ...

The Growing Uncivil War in the GOP

SJ Reidhead — Sun, 01 Jun 2008 22:07:27 -0600

NOTHING CIVIL ABOUT IT

If New Mexico is anything like the rest of the country (not that we ever are) there is a very real problem in the Republican Party. The same thing is going on in Arizona, where the hard-line extremists are battling for the heart and soul of the state’s GOP. (I’m linking to the Feather Bastard’s search page on Russell Pearce – no relation to Steve. That should be enuf said about Arizona and the problems there).

NOT CONSERVATIVE ENOUGH
The battle began several weeks ago when the GOP Chairman of Chavez County (Roswell) warned several ...

SJ Reidhead — Sat, 31 May 2008 00:18:47 -0600

MAYBE NOT WHAT YOU THINK

The first thing we need is a Hollywood face who is younger than my grandfather to help promote John McCain. We need a rock star. Conservatives need to start treating Hispanics with respect. They are our future, hard-line conservatives are (fortunately) a dying breed. The world is changing. Conservatives need to change. The first thing they need to do is understand, to comprehend that in order to win, John McCain needs to move toward the center. We all know they are incapable of rational thinking and behavior. They are too busy being spoiled and selfish. ...
