"I'm Tired!"

From Neal Boortz this submission by a former Marine.

Let us hope the Tea Party continues in line with its stated ideals. It may well be our only real hope!

Couldn't Be A Bigger Gaffe!

Let me see.....Wikileaks is opening hundreds of thousands of SECRET documents to the world through their site.......No reaction from the DOJ.

Then, this past weekend, the same DOJ takes over sites which offer fake items, and offer false sales.

Now there is logic.......one site is destroying US credability across the world....but gets no DOJ response. A few others sell rip-off adidas and other such goods and they are confiscated.

The government is in the BEST of hands.

We are all safe from fake Gucci products.....

SAD

Do Ya Get The Feeling "The ONE" is clueless?????

I do!

He seems ill-equipt to have any feeling for the country, its economy, and its people.

The facts seem to escape him.

I believe he has the "Chicago Syndrome" of politicians. The question to them is NOT "what should we do"....it is instead "What must we do to make this fit our message!"

Chicago politics are from the "BOSS" era.........They do not change.

I once employed (in a radio-news operation in suburban Chicago) a fellow who was a fine newsman...but a DEVOUT Democrat. He was, in fact, a precinct committeeman! He also had NO CLUE what he needed to do......actually he did not need to do anything. The "machine" handled his precinct for him. He need only vote!

That was 1973.....It has NOT CHANGED!

Tea party....unite....this is the nest we need to excoriate!

Do You See A Muslim?....I Don't See No Muslim!

OMG......The fellow arrested after he "punched the button"...vis-a-vis a cell phone...to set off a horrific explosion in Portland at the Christmas Tree Lighting.....

Well, to hear and/or read it from the Lame Stream Media, he was a USA citizen.....They forgot....He is a Muslim from Somalia.........OOPSIE!

Nothing to see here....move along!

Damn their "progressive" souls....may they rot in hell as we rebuild the USA!

Tea Party vs GHW Bush....& His Wife

This is, in my opinion, the crux of the 2012 vote for the GOP.

The 2010 election proved the fact that the Tea Party is R-E-A-L. Despite the attempts by the old media to prove otherwise, the Tea Party made HUGE inroads into the traditional election process and the traditional election results.

The DEMs were without any solid base, given they voted for everything the public opposed. The GOP, however, had given no real sign they were any different than the 1994 crowd who crowed loudly their plan and then did the opposite...spending and taxing...until the rooster came home to roost. This provided the 2006 conversion to a DEM Congress....followed by a 2008 vote of a DEM to the Presidency.

Now, in 2010, the question is....Will the Tea Party folks of 2010 be able to mount a new and effective campaign to give them mre leverage in 2012?

The Bushes.....in an interview.....said the best person available (minus JEB, the prodigal son) is Mitt Romney. They went, however, a step beyond. They via Barbara Bush, said Sarah Palin should stay home.

OOPS!

Ya know what.......I'll bet you this will be a crystallizing moment which will prove the old-line Bush projections are going to be buried under the Tea Party ideals!

Jeb will NEVER be President....NOR will Mitt!

Sarah may never be either, but the Bush condemnation is absurd. They will drive folks TO Palin.

BUT, There will be a Tea Party presence in the 2012 election.....one beyond the scope of what folks believe now.

The landscape is changing. The DEMs and the GOPs will be left scratching their collective heads. The worm has turned....PEOPLE are now in charge and the VOTERS will speak.

My Prediction.

N. Korea Invites Hostile Reaction!

The N. Koreans shell a S. Korean village on an island long-disputed between the two.

The purpose? Perhaps "Dear Leader" needs to heighten the hostilities to keep his own troops in line? Remember the N. Koreans are bereft of food stuffs, and medical supplies and most everything else.

Perhaps "Dear Leader" is seeking to give his deprived troops incentive to keep their posts. After all, if the S. Koreans are attacking, his troops will be driven to defend.

The man is no dummy. He is as sly as any fox.

The next six months will signal what will occur for the N. Korean dictator, and his planned successor. The winter in N. Korean; without enough food and medicine, will be tough. Will the leader's posturing vis-a-vis the shelling ignite sufficient loyalty to see "Dear Leader" through without a revolt of his own troops who are starving?

We'll see.

Blame-Blame-Blame.....The Blame Game!

Alvin of Gore.....The Chipmunk of the global warming set.....Has suddenly decided that:

a) Ethanol is NOT a good thing...despite his super-support for ethanol, subsidies, et al over the past several years.

b) The blame is upon POLITICS....certainly not his majesty, the anointed one of global warming!

Read how this idiot has NO SHAME!

He was a few votes from being the PRESIDENT! O-M-G!!!!!!!

End of Ethanol?

It is coming. Even Gore now admits the subsidies were political, and ethanol does almost nothing to help the environment.

Jonathon Adler Tells of the movement to halt subsidies.

HOORAY! About time. This lines only pockets of some special interests, nothing else.

Farmers remove cropland from food production to produce ethanol, which Gore and company earlier touted as the end all to our energy problems.

Bulletin-Bulletin! Taliban Negotiator Is A Fraud.....

& He got "lots of money" according to one source. The alleged Taliban leader met with Karzai, and three times with negotiators and is not even a Taliban leader.

Can you say OOPSIE Mr. President as your crack team of negotiators once again has shown up your complete lack of knowledge, grasp of facts, experience in world politics?

Blunder, Blunder, Blunder.....the refrain sounds somewhat Carteresque!

McConnell Will Stop Earmarks!

YEAH! The message is getting through. The TEA PARTY folks have been heard, and they will be heard.

They are NOT the fringe folks portrayed by the DEMs.....but then the DEMs already knew this. The secret is the GOP has apparently heard at least part of the message.

CUT the expenditures......control spending....DO NOT raise taxes!

I am lovin it, and seriously hoping the GOP is as in touch as they would have you believe. IF NOT they will find a revolt against them and the DEMs in 2012 the likes of which you have never imagined.

WE THE PEOPLE are ready to take charge of our government through the elected....OUR elected!

111 - & Counting

What have these marvelous unions been up to?

• The Service Employees Benefit Fund
• United Food and Commercial Workers Allied Trade Health & Welfare Trust Fund
• International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Union No. 195
• Asbestos Workers Local 53 Welfare Fund
• Employees Security Funds
• Plumbers & Pipefitters Local 123 Welfare Fund
• United Food and Commercial Workers Local 227
• United Food and Commercial Workers Maximus Local 455
• Service Employees International Union Local 25
• United Food and Commercial Workers Local 1262
• Musicians Health Fund Local 802
• Hospitality Benefit Fund Local 17
• Transport Workers Union
• United Federation of Teachers Welfare Fund
• International Union of Painters and Allied Trades (AFL-CIO)

They are ALL recipients of an Obama-WH waiver allowing them exemption from the requirements of Obamacare.....& They are only part of the 111 total already granted exemptions.

Guess this Obamacare thingee just isn't quite such a cost-cutter as The One had announced. Makes one wonder what else is hidden from the people by Mr. Transparency!

Before You Get All Soggy-eyed, and Weepy About GWBush......

Let us turn to Michelle Malkin for her 9 reasons why Bush was B-A-D for the country and its people with his LIBERAL ideas!

"1) joined with open-borders progressives McCain and Kennedy to try to force shamnesty down our throats;

2) massively expanded the federal role in education;

3) championed the Medicare prescription drug entitlement using phony math;

4) kowtowed to the jihadi-enabling Saudis;

5) stocked DHS with incompetents and cronies;

6) pushed Hillarycare for housing;

7) enabled turncoat Arlen Specter;

8. nominated crony Harriet Myers to the Supreme Court;

9) pre-socialized the economy for Obama by embracing TARP, the auto bailouts, the AIG bailout, and in his own words:


“I’ve abandoned free-market principles to save the free-market system.”
– George W. Bush"

NOW I REMEMBER......I guess the monstrous government/legislative/socialist agenda enacted by Obama and his loyal idiots (DEMs) was blinding me to remembrance of George's follies!

Ah Nancy, We Knew You Well!

DAMN! At least some Democrats are penning a letter to Nancy Pelosi saying that they want her to step aside and allow new leadership.

These DEMs obviously know that leaving Nancy in the leaders post...even though not speaker...would provide the GOP a HUGE headstart on attacking any and all DEM action through to the 2012 elections.

No delivery on the letter yet, but it is already circulating in DC.

Sorry, as a Tea Party guy, to see this....loved having the full Nancy target at which to shoot. However, that said, these DEMs at least show that contrary to Nobama, Slow-Joe, and Nancy's apparent lack of recognition as to what Nov. 3 meant this year, they have a grasp of the dire straights in which they find themselves.

Of course, a part of their cognizance is the fact O, J & N have all said Obamacare must stay with only minor tweaking...a fact outside the parameters of the new House.

What Could Go Wrong?????

Obamacare Flow Chart (Need an interpreter?)
email from a high school buddy.....

"Let me get this straight . . . .
We're going to be "gifted" with a health care plan we are forced to purchase and fined if we don't, which purportedly covers at least ten million more people, without adding a single new doctor, but provides for 16,000 new IRS agents to administer the plan, written by a committee whose chairman says he doesn't understand it, passed by a Congress that didn’t read it but exempted themselves from it, signed by a President who smokes, with funding administered by a treasury chief who didn't pay his taxes, for which we’ll be taxed for four years before any “benefits” take effect, by a government which has already bankrupted Social Security and Medicare, all to be overseen by a surgeon general who is obese, and financed by a country that's broke.


What could possibly go wrong?"


AMEN!!!!!
