HuffPo's Obama Piece Illegal Ad?

My Position On FISA

A dollar figure could be attached to this.

I didn't know that the AP had a sense of humor nor did I know that Kerry was doing stand up.

Kerry says McCain lacks

I'm not sure how a man who lied about his fellow soldiers, wooed a dead Republican's wife to get his fortune and is criminally effete judges others accurately, but Kerry passing judgement on McCain is hilarious.

Americans Practicing What Makes America Great

via Gateway Pundit

Many times it is the quiet man that is heard the loudest.

Getting to know John McCain
Mr. Day relayed to me one of the stories Americans should hear. It involves what happened to him after escaping from a North Vietnamese prison during the war. When he was recaptured, a Vietnamese captor broke his arm and said, "I told you I would make you a cripple."

The break was designed to shatter Mr. Day's will. He had survived in prison on the hope that one day he would return to the United States and be able to fly again. To kill that hope, the Vietnamese left part of a bone sticking out of hishim after escaping from a North Vietnamese prison during the war. When he was recaptured, a Vietnamese captor broke his arm and said, "I told you I would make you a cr arm, and put him in a misshapen cast. This was done so that the arm would heal at "a goofy angle," as Mr. Day explained. Had it done so, he never would have flown again.

But it didn't heal that way because of John McCain. Risking severe punishment, Messrs. McCain and Day collected pieces of bamboo in the prison courtyard to use as a splint. Mr. McCain put Mr. Day on the floor of their cell and, using his foot, jerked the broken bone into place. Then, using strips from the bandage on his own wounded leg and the bamboo, he put Mr. Day's splint in place.
...

Another story I heard over dinner with the Days involved Mr. McCain serving as one of the three chaplains for his fellow prisoners. At one point, after being shuttled among different prisons, Mr. Day had found himself as the most senior officer at the Hanoi Hilton. So he tapped Mr. McCain to help administer religious services to the other prisoners.

Today, Mr. Day, a very active 83, still vividly recalls Mr. McCain's sermons. "He remembered the Episcopal liturgy," Mr. Day says, "and sounded like a bona fide preacher." One of Mr. McCain's first sermons took as its text Luke 20:25 and Matthew 22:21, "render unto Caesar what is Caesar's and unto God what is God's." Mr. McCain said he and his fellow prisoners shouldn't ask God to free them, but to help them become the best people they could be while serving as POWs. It was Caesar who put them in prison and Caesar who would get them out. Their task was to act with honor.

Unlike many, McCain does not toot his own horn, which is admirable, so we must do it for him, which is necessary because the media will attempt to hide this side of McCain.

Nobody Wants Poster Boy Corey Glass

Turns out that Corey is away with leave and nobody cares. At least here in the US. Twits in Toronto have their panties in a bunch, but how new is that problem.

Protesters are gathering in Toronto's Parkdale community tonight to oppose the Conservatives' decision to deport Glass, despite Parliament passing a non-binding motion on June 3 calling for an end to deportation proceedings against Glass and other war resisters.
...

He is not considered absent without leave. He is not considered a deserter," Maj. Nathan Banks, a U.S. army spokesman, told ABC. "He is running for no reason. He is fully welcome in the United States. I cannot believe this is a big deal in Canada."

When the news organization reached Glass with the news, he was flabbergasted. "I had absolutely no idea that I had been discharged. This is insane. This is so weird. There are no warrants? No one is looking for me?"
A fugitive with no one chasing him.

AP Has Inside Obama Scoop

Obama may accept nomination

Maybe not? Maybe a 4 figure weekly salary isn't enough to keep the ministry kickin'.

July 4th

The Continental Congress unanimously adopts the Declaration of Independence. 1776

Independence declared, King George III writes: "Nothing of importance happened today." 1776

Former Presidents Thomas Jefferson and John Adams die on the 50th anniversary of American independence. 1826

Great Americans became great leaders who built an America filled with pride and hope for the future.

Then came Harry & Nancy.

2008 "Coal makes us sick ... oil makes us sick, it's global warming, it's ruining our country, it's ruining our world, we've got to stop using fossil fuel . . . ." Harry Reid

2008 Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid walks from his Chevrolet Suburban to attend a news conference on energy efficiency Wednesday in Upper Senate Park. Reid rode in the sport utility vehicle from the Capitol to the event, which was across the street.

2002 Pelosi "Yes, he has chemical weapons, he has biological weapons, he is trying to get nuclear weapons." And she told Tim Russert on a November 17, 2002 appearance NBC's Meet the Press, "Saddam Hussein certainly has chemical and biological weapons. There's no question about that."


2006 Pelosi "[T]here was never anything in the intelligence that said Iraq posed an imminent threat to the United States, never."


Hypocrisy and the desire for raw power are not the tools of great Americans. They are more the tools of petty dictators. Figures.

Why Do Democrats Hurt Us & The US?

The Dems have been going for this for years. When they control the economy, they increase the size of government which increases their power. It's time to go after them.

Congress = OPEC?
President Bush understands this shift.

"We can help alleviate shortages by drilling for oil and gas in our own country, something I've been advocating ever since I've been the president," he said Wednesday. "I've been reminding our people that we can do so in environmentally friendly ways. And yet the Congress, the Democratically controlled Congress, now has refused to budge. It makes no sense."

He's dead right. In fact, Democrats in Congress for nearly two decades have rejected drilling for more oil, building more refineries or developing more nuclear power. Since 1990, there have been 46 attempts to boost America's energy supplies. Only Democratic opposition keeps us from having more.

Alaska's National Wildlife Reserve, for instance, holds 10 billion barrels of oil, enough for 1.5 million barrels of oil a day. That would be a 20% increase in current U.S. oil production. Slam dunk, right?

No. President Clinton refused to OK development of ANWR back in 1995. When President Bush brought it up again in 2002, he couldn't get Democrats to support it. So no oil.

Likewise, Democrats have refused to drill for our Outer Continental Shelf oil resources, an estimated 89 billion barrels of crude. Nor do they want to disturb the 1 trillion barrels of oil locked underground in shale deposits stretching across the Rocky Mountains.

It isn't just Congress. In his bid to win the presidency, Barack Obama has flip-flopped on many things, but he stands squarely with Congress' naysaying Democrats in rejecting more drilling.
Democrats have failed to live up to their promises, and now we hope the American people hold them accountable.


It was January 2007 that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi made her now-infamous "Energy Independence Day" pledge. In it, she vowed to "truly declare our energy independence" by July 4, 2007.

Yet here it is a year later, and, as the Business & Media Institute notes, the price of gasoline has skyrocketed 85% to $4.09 a gallon.

You start to understand that this has been the intent all along. Democrats hate the very stuff — oil — that makes our economy and way of life possible. By doing nothing, they know prices will soar.

Just like Saudi King Abdullah, OPEC's de facto leader, who this week said Americans must "adapt to" high oil prices, Democrats want you to embrace higher prices — and lower standards of living.

That's why Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid can call coal and oil a "sickness." He actually believes it, and thinks your suffering from higher prices is therefore noble. It purges the disease — oil.

Americans today face spiraling costs for food and gasoline thanks to the Democrats' ideological nearsightedness. Higher energy costs are feeding into higher prices for everything, especially food.

Americans have to let politicians know they can't get away with ruining our economy, and that Congress' inaction is intolerable.

If you'd like more energy to fuel our economy and lower prices, we have a suggestion: Call your congressperson and tell him or her you want more energy — or you might vote for someone else. It might be the best expenditure of energy you make this year.

Reflection Of A Black Republican

Racism does exist in America. It isn't what we have been led to believe, but it exists.

THE POLITICS OF BLACKNESS: Black Republicans unfairly marginalized, demonized and vilified
When I was a Democrat, I never paid much attention to the negativity hurled at black Republicans. That’s probably because I never bought into the habit of gossiping about people or calling them names.

My main focus had always been about people’s deeds – whether positive or negative. I judged people by what they did, not by whom they were.

So it came as a culture shock when I switched to the Republican Party – mainly because of how other people began to treat me.

Here I was the same person, but with a different political perspective brought on by what I saw as hypocrisy in the way the black community was treated by the Democratic Party.

No longer was I “one of us.” I was now “one of them.” And then I saw the reality of viciousness. I even wrote a poem titled, “Why Do You Call Me Names?” published in 2000.

Read the rest. It is an echo of what I have heard for years. Many friends will not openly be Republican, in fact, they avoid the subject of politics completely, because they don't need the grief. A black being Republican is more afield to a Democrat than believing that Israel has a right to exist.

Talk about being disenfranchised.

Webb, Dems Spinning Service Spin To Their Own

Webb: "Let's get the politics out of the military, take care of our military people, or have our political arguments in other areas."

McCain has not tried to inject politics into the military. He does believe that his military service gives him wisdom to be a better Commander in Chief. Obama has no such wisdom.

This is the soft smear to "Gen" Clark's hard smear about McCain's service to our country.

Obama's Liberal Jihad Against McCain's Republican Convention

via Return of the Conservatives

Plausible deniablilty.

Legal challenge is in line with plans to disrupt GOP convention
Elaborate plans are underway to encircle and "shut down" the Republican National Convention at St. Paul's Xcel Energy Center in September. The strategies and tactics involved could come straight from a guerrilla warfare manual.

Anarchist groups with ominous names -- the RNC Welcoming Committee, Unconventional Action -- have announced a "three-tier strategy" to cut off the Xcel Center. The steps include "blockading" streets and freeways, "immobilizing" delegates' transportation and "blocking" bridges to impede delegates' access to the center.

The plan also features a "swarm, seize, stay" strategy. After dividing the city into "sectors," protesters propose to "seize space" through both "hard technical blockades" and "softer, more mobile blockades" such as congestion, according to anarchist websites.

Some demonstrators may chain themselves together in public thoroughfares, while others operate in "waves" designed to "spread out police both geographically and tactically."


Rock/hard place. If they're taken out as they riot and destroy, we as a nation look bad/If they're allowed to riot and destroy, our Republic is further weakened. The rich Obama supporting ABA lawyers and the trash employing them know this.

Democrats, liberals and especially Obama should be ashamed. And made to pay the bill.

If Obama' Advisors Might Kill His Campaign, What Might They Do To America If He Gets Elected?

Obama Advisor: McCain ‘Sadly Limited’ by POW Years
"He [McCain] was in isolation essentially for many of those years and did not experience the turmoil here or the challenges that were involved for those of us who served in Vietnam during the Vietnam war."

Clark, Ayers, Rezko, Wright, Johnson, Axlerod, Brzezinski, Mayweather, Holder, Malley, Clarke, Bonior, Dorhn, Blumenthal, Tribe, Klonsky, Obongo, Farrakan, and more.

Bombers, murderers, communists, corrupt machine politicians, unionists, terrorists, socialists, anti-white, anti-American, criminals and double dealing politicians as campaign advisors.

Just think what they can do for you.

Hollywood Hates Christians, But Loves Smart Alexs & Bills

One More Reason for Hollywood to Support Obama
Stephen Baldwin, a born-again Christian and brother of Alec, whose most recent "role" was an apprearance on Donald Trump's Celebrity Apprentice, told Fox News' Laura Ingraham that he will leave the country if Barack Obama becomes the next president (fingers crossed?), yet another reason for Hollywood to keep making campaign donations to the Senator.

Watch the clip to see Mr. Baldwin's rant against Hollywood's support of the Democratic candidate and the reasons why he's backing John McCain.

So predictable, NYC and Hollywood. Both are filled with rubes who moved there and put on airs to appear what they aren't. Once they have assumed their character they must ridicule what they were.

How predictably sad. Please strike. Soon.

Hillary Has A Fink

As I remember it, Larry Fink was raised in Hell's Kitchen in NYC. He appeared carrying a dufflebag which he tossed on the cement floor and started to talk, as he'd been hired, about his happy complacency of being a traveling photographer much like a one man band of Gypsy around America. As he spoke he bent and reached into his duffel bag to grab his Rolleis and Blads (Rolleiflex and Hasselblad cameras)and various lens rattling around in there. Students in the basement room of an old post office, now an art hall, silently pondered treating their equipment in such a way that would bring immediate cardiac arrest to their purchasers, their parents.

It was a measured performance, so haphazard and slovenly that I knew it had been rehearsed. I liked Fink immediately and invited him over for dinner with my girlfriend. That was planned too.

After a dinner of lemon chicken with Italian breading sauteed in olive oil, pasta in cream sauce, radicchio salad and garlic bread mixed with conversation about the Midwest, NYC and life on the road, Fink commented the meal was better than his earlier dinner at the Hamburger Inn.

Knowing that I was about to start an photography internship in the fashion industry in NYC, Fink spoke of the fraud called fashion, the humourless pomposity of New York's elite and what life really was, as seen from Hell's Kitchen.

Two years later, I knew I couldn't continue starting my 5:30 AM days as an apprentice assisting in photographing the Rolling Stones, Catherine Deneuve, Cristina Ferrare, Vogue covers and ethereal lanterns floating in a sea of color while bouncing from Peter Beard's studio and Richard Avedon shoots. The imagery of a world in which the Ramones' unloaded their equipment from a cab in front of CBGB, whores on Latrobe, bums in Washington Square and young socialites discussing the impotence of life as they consumed their father's credit at 4 o'clock in the morning at Plato's was my undoing.

I was trapped in Fink's world and my money had run out. I went straight to LaGuardia from a late night performance by Deborah Harry and a debauched party in a loft off Houston Street to a 6:30 AM flight back to Ohio.

In searching for a story about Hillary Clinton's disastrous campaign I found Larry Fink again.





He is still dissecting facades.
