'I CAN'T SPEND ALL OF MY TIME WITH MY BIRTH CERTIFICATE PLASTERED ON MY FOREHEAD'
Self funding of Obama "Miss Me Yet" billboards in the plans, but not a $12 copy of his birth certificate.

The Emmy Awards
My wife has the Emmy Awards show on which reminded me that last week I actually saw a hetrosexual couple on TV.
Unfortunately, their unexpected appearance on television caused my TV to melt.

Murkowski Is Like Crist: Screw'em. Give Me The Power And The Money
 |
| NRSC Triptik |
Murkowski, like Crist of Florida, might be busy proving that they are little republican in the Republican Party that believe only in themselves and are only out for themselves. That the NRSC is assisting her in undermining real Republicans in Alaska is a sign of bureaucratic bloatedness and comfort in positions they feel are no longer answerable to Republican voters nationwide.
300,000 - 500,000 people in front of the Lincoln Memorial feel differently. The left is paying close attention to that rally to find imagined racism and any other fault they can find. The Republican power elites seem to not only have not heard of the rally, but seem to have forgotten where the Lincoln Memorial is sited. If they were to find the memorial they'd be able to read Lincoln's words and then possibly find their way back to believing in what the Republican Party stands for.
If they don't know where the Lincoln Memorial is they just have to remember the next time they go to the Public Affairs Office for the US Mint for some coin, that they continue on west to their favorite, the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Then hop back on Independence Ave going west until they see the Lincoln Memorial on the right. Maybe it might be more simple to just ask any tourist in town to guide them.
Once there they will find Lincoln quotes such as, "Allow all the governed an equal voice in the government, and that, and that only, is self-government," which is actually part of this quote, "I have quoted so much at this time merely to show that, according to our ancient faith, the just powers of governments are derived from the consent of the governed. Now the relation of master and slave is pro tanto a total violation of this principle. The master not only governs the slave without his consent, but he governs him by a set of rules altogether different from those which he prescribes for himself. Allow all the governed an equal voice in the government, and that, and that only, is self-government."
Remember the "just powers of government" part of the quote if remembering all of it is just too much.

NPR First In Media To Lie About Beck Rally In DC
Photos: Glenn Beck Rally Has People Seeing Red
NPR - 17 minutes ago
Thousands turned out to hear Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin speak in front of the Lincoln Monument in Washington, DC, on Saturday.
It may actually be that "thousands" listen to NPR coast to coast. There were a tad more than thousands at the "Restoring Honor" rally in DC. 300,000 to 500,000 people turned up in the Federal City for the rally. There are no crowd estimates for those who may or may not be listening to NPR.

Liberal Heads Exploding Over Beck Rally
They're calling it a Nazi rally. Some are saying it is the largest KKK rally in years. The knee slapping crowd is calling it Whitestock. Whatever they are calling it they seem to be really scared of Beck and his rally.
On Twitter the left is full of snark.
Meanwhile at Whitestock or the rally, whatever, an American Indian is giving a medal to a black preacher who attended the Republican MLK rally held there many years ago. The left is angry that such men of color would try to "steal" the heritage of the Civil Rights movement, especially when they speak of Jesus. They left wants Jesus to be a communist and MLK to be agnostic when they want to use them for their political ends.
On other sites leftists question whether Beck will allow God and MLK to be mentioned and then ridicule him when they are not only mentioned, but held in the highest esteem. Others want to have answer to that burning question, are Beck and Palin being paid and if so, how much? The theme is that capitalists can be bought to speak on behalf of anything, unlike any on the left. That the great unwashed rubes of America attending the rally are really what is wrong about America, unlike those on the left. That people that want less government intrusion, less power and less spending are the problem, unlike the left.
This is what makes the left so open to other ideas.

Obama's Driver/Ditch Analogy Meets Reality
Giving money and power to government is like giving whiskey and car keys to teenage boys. --P. J. O'Rourke
Of course P. J. may need to include girls now that we have the estimatable Nancy Nana Pelosi buying all that booze for the rest of the kids at the party.

Michigan Dems In Fraud Against McCotter & Other Republicans.
It is still uncertain if McCotter's opponent Natalie Mosher' campaign was involved, but party officials in Oakland County, Michigan had to fire one of their employees (after it was published that the Democrat Party official) started a fake "Tea Party" to try and siphon votes away from McCotter and other Republicans.
DEM commissioners call for party worker's removal
"[W]e ask for the immediate removal of Jason Bauer as an employee of the Oakland County Democratic Party. Our caucus members and candidates demand the highest ethical standards of ourselves, our government and our party, and any violation of those standards must have real and significant consequences.”
Yep, turn on the lights and watch them scatter.

Rich Care For Petraeus Moist With Crocodile Tears
Oh, weep for the brave warrior as Frank Rich weeps. Must we allow our brave warriors fall on the sword of neo con stupidity? If only we had the stamina to wake each morning and look hard into the mirror and see ourselves as Rich can only see himself.
How Fox Betrayed Petraeus
It’s poignant, really. Even as America’s most venerable soldier returned from the front to valiantly assume the role of Willy Loman, the product he was selling was being discredited and discontinued by his own self-proclaimed allies at home.
Poignant? Ah, exactly the word I'd expect Frank to use to describe any situation of a soldier. Really, I expect that type of sensitivity from Frank. Frank is so sensitive he must, late on dark nights, quote to himself, "I realized what a ridiculous lie my whole life has been" and wonder if his brother was right at last.

Another Soon To Be A Party Switching Democrat?

Individual $44K Per Person National Debt Obligation Far From What It Should Be
To paraphrase John Paul Jones, Obama whispers to aides, "I have not yet begun to spend!"
USA DEBT: $13,310,379,000,000.00
$44,000 PER CITIZEN...
Actually, Americans need to cough up more than a mere $44K per person on the debt when it is costing about $75K per day for the Obamas to vacation and that's justMarie Antoinette Michelle. That's a $31K disparity. Time to buck up John and Jane Q. Publick.
Of course the Obamas, even on vacation, can't swim in the sea of poo surrounding Martha's Vineyard, but us mere taxpayers already know that feeling.

Sociology Students Feel Put Upon By Visit To Creation Museum And Ethnography 'Proves' It
I wonder if sociology students are upset when creationists are forced to listen to the evolution theory in government supported classes or are confronted with a belief they disagree with in museums on the National Mall that spout evolution as fact?
Would they be upset? No, because that would mean that they would have to believe the rubes have a belief different than theirs, but just as viable. That is something they only will not do, but they will also openly laugh at such an idea. They are that sure that they are correct that it allows them to mock, belittle, laugh at and get articles so full of crock as the one below published about their publishing a "scientific" paper base on ethnographyy. Ethnography, a subjective narrative based on one's bias, is considered a scientific research by those that agree with its findings. An example might be, "Jews act badly, in my opinion, towards Palestinians, ergo my bias against Jews and for Palestinians is correct."
When sociology students visit Creation Museum
A professor of sociology led a field trip through Kentucky's Creation Museum, a fundamentalist Christian facility. The professor found that non-fundamentalists felt uncomfortable there. Museum officials say they've received death threats and the site sometimes draws anti-Creationist protesters.
Barton combined hours of observation and analysis of museum materials into an ethnography, a detailed narrative about a place and its culture that is often used in sociology. Unlike other research methods, the ethnography does not strive for impartiality; rather, the researchers recognize and reflect on their own reactions to what they see. (read the entire article)
“Politically acceptable” is only acceptable to one side and they do not pray to God to be right.

APB: Zack Space Missing Again!
Zack wasn't at the OEC when they found he had made false statements in campaign ads.
Zack announced mucho bucks for broadband access. From where he announced nobody knows. He must have been out scouting placement of lines because he just announced it, but wasn't there to announce it in person.
Zack might be at Ground Zero doing inspections because he hasn't been around to state his position on the subject. Maybe he was in Las Vegas chatting up Harry Reid on the subject.
Zack might also beal so chatting up the SEIU and other previous union supporters about his brave vote against government health care. Or was his vote against the fact that the bill didn't go far enough? $25,000 is $25,000 and it beats having to actually meet with constituents and ask for donations.
Zack might be out there helping coal miners dig a little bit as contrition for screwing them out of their jobs by supporting Cap and Trade. Maybe. He hasn't been seen talking to his voters or giving them advice on how to pay the thousands of extra dollars in taxes to pay for it. Maybe that is what he's talking to the coal miners about. Well, that and how they're going to pay extra being out of work and all.
Wait! We found Zack! At least we found where he has spent some of his money. He is attacking people that disagree with him because they don't live in the district except they obviously know where the district is. Maybe Zack was the one filming. The video is taken from far away and is pretty shaky. Distant and shaky? Maybe we really have found Zack.
Maybe Zack is hiding out at Bob Gibbs rallies. It's not like anyone would recognize him. It's tough actually talking to constituents, especially when it takes so much time away from trolling Washington DC for campaign donations and support to the tune of $1,115,303.
I hope Zack calls home soon. There might be people worried about him

All I Want Is A Hibachi
Home Depot? Nada.
Lowes? Zip.
Sears? Only online (I want one now. Not next week)
Target? They have something called Son of Hibachi which means daddy isn't the real daddy.
Local patio store? Yep, they have a foofoo French model. For $110.00. Ain't happening.
Krogers? I asked and got a stare that only a dead fish could love.
Giant Eagle? "Honey, that's a great suggestion. We should get some in."
Lawn and Garden shop nearby? "We only sell real grills!"
Gander Mountain? Nope, but they had a cast iron pan I could hold over a fire.
With this administration's economy I might have better luck checking pawn shops.
