Berlusconi Win Of Little News To Liberal Press
Yesterday I wrote about Berlusconi winning in Italy and the politics of everybody has a party and a candidate. Ben Keeler has a good post about the media and their handling of two stories about the same man and the same office.
It was all over the news when pro-Bush ally Silvio Berlusconi of Italy resigned in 2006 - it was widely seen as a rebuke to Bush himself.Not a whole lot of news on his victory today and that his party is reclaiming power. Surprising.
Ben added this bit from the AP which seems to be a PR wing for Obama sometimes which makes this a little surprising.
AP: Berlusconi's party and its allies won strong victories in both houses of parliament despite a strong final sprint by his main rival, Walter Veltroni, who ran a campaign that could have come out of Barack Obama's playbook, with calls to "Vote for change" and supporters armed with "We can!" banners.
Maybe they can't.

America Needs More Options-More Parties?
There is some good news in this as Berlusconi is the best candidate, but the politics of Italy is what caught me eye. Maybe Jesse Ventura and all his buddies that bitch about John McCain can find some satisfaction in this.
Berlusconi 'wins' Italy election
...
Some 158 different parties contested the regional and national polls, including Mr Berlusconi's new conservative People of Freedom (PDL) and Mr Veltroni's recently formed Democratic Party (PD).
...
The new government will be Italy's 62nd since World War II.
Yeah, just what we need. 62 different governments over a short time made up of center-left, communists and at least 3 more Jimmy Carters.

Lincoln Assassination
Today is the anniversary of the assassination of President Abraham Lincoln.
May this scourge never visit America again.
Among the stories, both true and untrue, that I have heard was one that goes directly to the sensitivity of the press in the Dan Rather sense that the story is not true, but speaks to the truth.
As the story goes, as Mrs Lincoln left Ford Theater a reporter started to ask a question when a guard heatedly announced that her husband had just been shot. The reporter, always on the beat, immediately asked, "Other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?"

Is your right to be stupid guaranteed.
Phoenix mayor asks FBI to check sheriff
If stupidity was a crime, Sheriff Joe would be building new jails just for Mayors and other politicians.

Where In The World Is Dick Celeste?
Once the Punjab plenipotentiary and before that Celeste was the esteemed governor of the state of Ohio. Just as India is defined by rivers so is Ohio. Coincidence? Dunno. Don't care.
Another coincidence is that after Celeste left each position things improved.
Now Dick Celeste is president of the Colorado Springs' Colorado College where humor is dangerous unless vetted by liberals, i.e., professional educators who warn us not to try education at home because their work is done on a closed course by trained professionals.
Joking students called on the carpet
The pair at Colorado College are rebuked over a feminist-newsletter parody seen as threatening.
OH MY GOD, NOT PARODY! Parody scares feminists. Being scared makes feminists angry. When said parody is mixed with chainsaws and guns, well that is just downright threatening. Scary. Angry. Time for Dick.
Dick knows about feminists. Think Dagmar. Dagmar hates Dick. Dagmar was so angry she went and made herself a Catholic bishop. As she broke water, Dagmar thanked mother God and Harvey Milk.
This explains why Dick runs when confronted by feminists.

Communist China Faked Tibetan Torch Attacks
Everybody is crying that the Olympics aren't political and politics should be left out of them. I say, meet and confront tyrants, liars and despots wherever they choose to rear their cowardly heads, especially when they lie to garner sympathy for their murderous ways.This one picture came to symbolize the heartless violence of the Tibetan protesters, thus justifying, in many people's minds, the paramilitary troops that China sent to harass, beat, and brutalize the protesters in other countries -- from France and London to the United States to South America:
Big Lizards has shown that the communist leadership of China has staged this and other photographs and events to make the Tibetans look bad.
China clearly thought this was a win-win for them as the world media flocked to the Olympics showing the world what a great group of guys the communists are. They are not a great group of guys. They are murderous thugs living out Stalin's wet dreams of sadism and world conquest.
If they want to use the Olympics as a front to falsely portray themselves as good people, I say use the Olympics to show that they are common criminals which is the real definition of communism.

Jeremiah Wright Was A Muslim & A Black Nationalist?
I mean, Jeremiah Wright was a Muslim and a black nationalist before he was a Biblical scholar who found that Jesus was actually a black African who was "sick of this sh*t!" This kind of trip is Jules Verne meets Jack Kerouac where Miss Daisy is told to shut up and drive. Or else.
Barack Obama's unlikely political education.
But Wright was a former Muslim and black nationalist who had studied at Howard and Chicago, and Trinity's guiding principles--what the church calls the "Black Value System"--included a "Disavowal of the Pursuit of Middleclassness.'"
The crosscurrents appealed to Obama. He came to believe that the church could not only compensate for the limitations of Alinsky-style organizing but could help answer the nagging identity problem he had come to Chicago to solve. "It was a powerful program, this cultural community," he wrote, "one more pliant than simple nationalism, more sustaining than my own brand of organizing."
As a result, over the years, Wright became not only Obama's pastor, but his mentor. The title of Obama's recent book, The Audacity of Hope, is based on a sermon by Wright. (It's worth noting, however, that, while Obama's book is a coolheaded appeal for common ground in an age of political polarization, Wright's sermon, "The Audacity to Hope," is a fiery jeremiad about persevering in a world of nuclear arms and racial inequality.) Wright is one of the first people Obama thanked after his Senate victory in 2004, and he recently name-checked Wright in his speech to civil rights leaders in Selma, Alabama.
The church also helped Obama develop politically.
But Obama was a Christian after he was not a Muslim. Was Wright a Christian before he was a Black Nationalist Muslim before he was a Biblical scholar who welcomed Hawaiian Harvard Obama into his new church to become an authentic African-American from the southside of Chicago, ie become part of a family he never had.
I don't know about Wright and Obama, but I got whiplash just trying to keep up with this sell.

Jesse Ventura Is 'None Of The Above'
Jesse Ventura wants the presidential election to be more like a grocery store so people have more choices than just Coke or Pepsi because he is a fiscal conservative, but a social liberal. Well, isn't he special.
To add to his soft drink presidential choices Jesse thinks we should also have a "none of the above" flavor. His nattering on every possible venue shouldn't be considered as publicity for his book. His nattering should be considered moronic. Is it well intentioned? Don't care.
Maverick wants none of the above for president
"I oppose the two-party system. All it is is more of the two-party dictatorship," he said. "What I wish we had on the ballot for all our elections is 'none of the above' so you could show you have no confidence in the government.
"It would be amazing just how often 'none of the above' would win ... the only difference I see is that if a Democrat wins (in November) our taxes will go up. That's not saying they spend any more or less than the Republicans but the Republicans put it on a credit card, or the national debt."
An electorate that relies, for the most part, on the main stream media to glean knowledge about two opposing candidates for president will be better off if they have more as well as an out if they don't know or care to make a decision? That's like giving a teenager the choice between cars in the garage and liquor in the cabinet for their drive to the prom. Aren't we in bad enough shape by letting the bureaucrats the run of the auto dealership and the liquor store while controlling the judicial process, using our money the whole time?
You want multiple choice, take a class or move to Italy since that's working oh so well for them. If we are to have weirdo candidates for weirdo voters to vote for and a none of the above choice for those too stupid or too lazy to make a choice, we're in trouble. Wait, we are in trouble, we may have Barr and Paul for starters.
Maybe we can add Daffy Duck and a Teletubby candidate for those that think we need more diversity in government just to round out the Jesse Ventura weirdo slate. Then we can add a Nazi candidate, a Communist, a Green and an Ayrian Nation candidate as well. Come on, this is fun. How about a Zuni Nationalist, a La Raza North American Unity Party candidate, a NAMBLA candidate to spread the love and a vegan Wiccan Nation Common Sense Party candidate for those that don't believe, but want to cover their bases type of voters. Don't forget the Goth Nation! If they win they can repaint the White House black, you know, for change. Real change.
Me, I'd like to continue what has made America strong, one man - one vote and a two party system. For those that can't make a decision or won't make a decision, they can exercise their "none of the above" by not voting for president. Otherwise they can stop screwing with our elections to sell books, get on television or to puff up their own self worth.
Work, support your family, understand the ramifications of your vote and be nice to people. If you want to get involved in party politics to make a change, that is great. If not, stop your bitching and your spewing of foolish ideas.
UPDATE: Add another party!

I Love Old Motels
Their architecture is fun. Not always good, but fun. Route 66 is the road of fame and movies, but the National Road, Route 40, has some really great things built that I remember from my childhood. In Appalachia there was the "Snake Pit" with giant snakes pictured on their signs for miles and miles and the snakes were about 10" in reality.
Near there is the Route 40 Motel. So incredibly ugly/fun architecture that I remember from childhood.
Here in Ohio Route 40 is very cool. As a child and until now with my wife and 
children I have loved going to the Ding Ho Chinese Restaurant on West Broad Street in Columbus, Ohio (Hint: Chicken with vegetables, Won Ton Soup and and egg roll). The family that still owns it are really good and fine people.

The Philogynist Presidential Candidate Has Experience
Elton John: 'To hell with them'
Geez, lov'em or hat'em, they can't live without them.
Inside, Bill Clinton introduced his wife, thanked the packed house for contributions to keep the race going, and asked for more, to shouts of "We miss you, Bill."
"If you know anybody who didn’t come here tonight who could send some money over the Internet …," he said."What I want you to know is, I’m still standing," Hillary told the crowd. I believe that this country is worth fighting for, so we’re talking our campaign to Pennsylvania and to all the states that haven’t voted."
Elton John was a bit edgier:"I never cease to be amazed at the misogynist attitude of some of the people in this country," he said. "I say to hell with them."
Geez, lov'em or hat'em, they can't live without them.
NAACP Wrong To Have Wright
via Gateway Pundit (again!).NAACP in Detroit to host Obama's embattled ex-minister
Rev. Jeremiah Wright to speak at Freedom Fund dinner
Over the years, speakers of the Freedom Fund dinner have included Obama, NAACP Chairman Julian Bond, presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and former President Bill Clinton. The Fight for Freedom Fund Dinner began in 1956. The event’s first speaker was civil rights lawyer and future U.S. Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall.
They may be always wrong, but they are always predictable.
Eugene Debs To Host Air America?
via Ace
Personally I am aghast that I must wait for the announcement, but then I am also aghast that the ever lovely and vivacious Randi is gone.
Last week Air America suspended Randi Rhodes for abusive, obscene language at a recent public appearance in San Francisco which was sponsored by an Air America affiliate station.
Air America Media was informed last night by Ms. Rhodes that she has chosen to terminate her employment with the company. We wish her well and thank her for past services to Air America.
We will soon announce exciting new talent and programming that will accelerate Air America’s growth in the future.
Maybe it's not Eugene. Al Franken appears busy these days as well. Bill Maher is bearing his own cross of humor in real time to a Palestinian beat.
You know, maybe they have Lord Haw-Haw in the wings just waiting for the AA microphone. It'd be a step up for sure.

Obama, Clinton Make Fools Of Themselves In Front Of Patraeus And World
via Bloodthirsty Liberal
The money quote thatwill won't win her the nomination, but will get her on Al Jazeera.
“I think it could be fair to say that it might well be irresponsible to continue the policy that has not produced the results that have been promised time and time again, at such tremendous cost to our national security and to the men and women who wear the uniform of the United States military.”
While Hillary debated the meaning of is, Obama called for his type of change in Iraq which strangely enough seems to be the benchmarks for a successful Barack Hussein Obama Administration.
“The problem I have is that if the definition of success is so high, no traces of al Qaeda and no possibility of reconstitution, a highly effective Iraqi government, a democratic multiethnic, multisectarian functioning democracy, no Iranian influence, at least not the kind that we like, then that portends the possibility of us staying for 20 or 30 years,” Obama said.
“If, on the other hand, our criteria is a messy, sloppy status quo, but there’s not huge outbreaks of violence, there’s still corruption but the country is struggling along, but it’s not a threat to its neighbors and it’s not an al Qaeda base, that seems to me an achievable goal within a measured time frame.”
Every nation should strive for a messy, sloppy status quo government. That should get the welfare checks there on time, eh?
It is way beyond belief that these people are running to be the leader of the free world which is the beacon of hope for citizens everywhere, they actually believe people will buy this crap.

"Get Me More White People"
Michelle Obama speaks at presidential rally in Skibo Gym
...
While the crowd was indeed diverse, some students at the event questioned the practices of Mrs. Obama’s event coordinators, who handpicked the crowd sitting behind Mrs. Obama. The Tartan’s correspondents observed one event coordinator say to another, “Get me more white people, we need more white people.” To an Asian girl sitting in the back row, one coordinator said, “We’re moving you, sorry. It’s going to look so pretty, though.”
“I didn’t know they would say, ‘We need a white person here,’ ” said attendee and senior psychology major Shayna Watson, who sat in the crowd behind Mrs. Obama. “I understood they would want a show of diversity, but to pick up people and to reseat them, I didn’t know it would be so outright.”
Like most "diversity" programs this is all about numbers, but it upsets liberals if race based quotas are "so outright" as to become apparent.
Some see this much ado about nothing except to the "frustrated commentariat."
From The Moderate Voice;
Unlike the student setting up this event, however, when you advance in your career as a campaign worker and actually start getting paid, you learn not to say idiotic things out loud like, “Give me more white people!” Still, this is yet another of the all too common cases of a bored, frustrated commentariat looking for something - anything - to report on as this endless campaign season drags on.
I'm not frustrated. I am not tired of this "endless campaign". I'm not looking for something - anything - to comment on. I don't have to, it comes to me just like "Get me more white people" has. And it does tell me something about the mindset and attitude of Democrats and of the Obama campaign. Campaign based racial quotas for public dissemination to unaware voters. Racial theater.
UPDATE: Gateway Pundit has more!

What Price Sympathy?
Ireland has been at war forever. Vietnam, aka Annan, has been a badminton set for China since before the birth of Christ. Russian hearts only see darkness because the Russian heart only desires darkness.
Africa. Africa is setting itself up to continue to be the sob story for the next many centuries. Is this because they were victims of slavery in Rome, the world and the southern states of America or because they captured and sold thier own brothers as slaves to Europeans to sell to the world that they will continue to slaughter, rape and rob their way into the next millennium?
Vietnam now has graveyards aplenty and a communist government constantly building more out of necessity of its own actions. Ireland has finally found Kennedy money is too dirty even for them. Its sad when a group of filthy little socialists bent on murder feel they are better than a family of rum running whore mongers.
Africa. Darfur. Congo. Rhodesia. Libya. Mau-Mau. The washing of the spears.
As long as I have been alive I have heard of the dark heart of Africa. A heart that loves hate. I have hunted in Kenya and the then country of Rhodesia. I especially treasure my time at Nairobi Ranch with my aunt and friends. Of African friends I only hope for their good.
Other than them, I just can't care anymore. That is bad, but when does a continent's badness become part of one's nightly prayers.
At what point does hope become sadness when those you hope to help refuse help?
Africa is more of a mess than Asia which is almost as much a mess as the Russias which makes Latin America almost appear sensible.
That which has been called the cradle of life appears the crib of death.
I am just plain out of sympathy for those that refuse to rise out of their sewer. The Iraqis and Afghans have risen above their prior leadership of arrogance and planned sectarian hatred to attempt freedom.
When will Africa?

Phil Donahue On Hannity & Colmes
Donahue must have pulled the stake from his heart to appear on H&C and once again interrupt, change the subject and spout the same crap he did back when Marlo still felt it possible to appear in public.
Donahue's emotionalism and repetitive monotone delivery hasn't the power it did when people accepted it as new thus true.
Colmes' genuflections are embarrassing.
