Quote of the day – Ann Coulter

Democrats don’t resent “the rich” on behalf of the poor. They resent the rich on behalf of the government.

Wallace Smith – “Even Limbaugh knows the line he cannot cross”

Because of people like this, churches like this, racism will never die in this nation. If it did, they would have no pulpit to spew their hate from.  And they call themselves Christians …

H/t to my great friend in GA!

MSNBC’s new “leaning forward left” ads.

I guess there’s no longer any question on where ComCast sits, politically.  I thought that they were smarter than the company from which they purchased this losing network. WRONG! But on the plus side, I’m glad they aren’t. They will remain on the losing side of the American public.

Ladies and gentlemen, check out the new “lean forward” ads by MSNBC stars (read that sarcastically.)  These are amazing. And I take offense to Rachel Madcow at Hoover Dam, talking about America’s greatness (Hoover Dam, that fabulous engineering feat) that could never be done without the government leading the way.

Let’s put that in perspective, okay? That dam was built in less than 5 years. 5 YEARS! Do you know how long that bridge took? When we lived in Nevada, the sign said:

“Highway construction next (whatever) miles. 2003-2007.”

then it said “2003-2008”

then they took down the final year, just painted over it.

It was finished this winter — 2010!

Nearly 8 years to finish a bridge and a highway. Admittedly, that bridge is something to behold. It’s almost as amazing as the Dam itself. But it’s still not THE HOOVER DAM! There was no excuse for it to take nearly twice as long as the entire damned Dam! And actually it was more than a decade when you figure in all the impact studies and bullshit that the EPA and OSHA and all the other government alphabet agencies require.

This Ms.Madcow, is what happens when the government leads!

But I digress – as usual.

Watch the “leaning forward left” ads. They are, if nothing else, amusing!

Why the left hates Sarah – Robin of Berkeley

I don’t know how I missed this because it was written way back in November ’09, but it’s a real good read by Robin of Berkeley. She’s one of my favorite bloggers and this proves why.

Please take a couple minutes to read it.

I’m going to make a prediction

Obama has been everywhere, raising money. We’re seeing him everyday. He’s campaigning all over the place: bad mouthing the Republicans and the Tea party. Intimidating any would-be opponent because he’s going to raise $1billion. Who can compete with that?

And we have 19 months until the next election.

Does this mean Obama fatigue (or more like voter catatonia) to anyone but me?

The Republicans are right to hold back and not announce their intentions to run. This is a smart move for them. This gives Obama lots of time to muck things up for himself before the real races and debates occur. And it gives Obama time for the voters to be burned out and sick of him. Or sicker than we are now.

Yep, I think the Republicans are doing the right thing and Obama is on his own track to ruination.  Or at least I’m praying so.

What I think about Obama, his birth and our future

I’ve seen Jack Cashill’s video speeches. I’ve read Stanly Kurtz’ book, Radical in Chief. And it’s because of them and all the comments that cali has made that I believe there is more to this president’s past than we know.

• Am I convinced that he was born in Hawaii? NO.
• Do I think there’s a possibility that he was born outside this country? YES.
• Do I think that Obama could be playing us all as rubes and he really is Hawaiian born? YES.
• Do I know for certain that he’s a Christian? NO.

I’m not prepared to discount anything. And what does that say about this man we elected? It says that we really know nothing for sure about him. All that remains are more and more conspiracy theories and I see this as something that will never die. There will be theories about this guy’s life in perpetuity.

Maybe that’s what he wants to leave history: something like an Arthurian legacy. Can anyone prove, without doubt that King Arthur lived? No. Can it be proven that he didn’t? No.

Can anything be definitively proven about Obama’s early life? Very little.

He’s a little like Jesus, isn’t he? There’s a large gap of time during childhood that is all but non-existent, in both men’s lifes. The difference is that we take on faith the life of Jesus because we have no kindergarten teachers or childhood friends to question. Somehow, Obama has kept most of his past a secret and kept quiet almost all those who had to have known him.

I just don’t know what to think about this man – aside from knowing that he’s a Marxist who shares none of my beliefs or my vision of what America really is about and knowing that he has plans that will destroy the America that we love. He is dangerous to our future and another term as president will create almost irreversible damage to us as a people and a nation.

Quote of the day – Pope John Paul II

Do not be afraid of God’s mystery; do not be afraid of His love; and do not be afriad of man’s weakness or of his grandeur! Man does not cease to be great, not even in his weakness. Do not be afraid of being witnesses to the dignity of every human being, from the moment of conception until death.

Shapiro: Obama is the Un-American

Two days ago, Matt Drudge linked to a new book by Jerome Corsi, unflinchingly titled Where’s the Birth Certificate? The book immediately leapt to number one on Amazon.com, where it has remained ever since.  The media has shown its usual incredulity at the indisputable stupidity of the American people.  How could so many people question President Obama’s birthplace?  How could they wonder about his origins?  Are they all simply racist?

The answer, of course, is that Americans are desperately seeking an answer to a simple question: why does President Obama appear to be so un-American?  The term un-American here is not synonymous with anti-American (though Obama has been that on occasion); instead, it merely signifies that President Obama is unconcerned with typical American principles and traditions.  He sees capitalism as selfish and evil, religion as dangerous and oppressive; he sees the Constitution as antiquated and entrepreneurialism as exploitative.

Sometimes you read something and have an epiphany-like moment. Or more like a “he knows exactly what I’m thinking but couldn’t say it as well” experience. Shaprio put a tack right in the middle of the map for me with the question “why does Obama seem so un-American?”

I’ve never been marching in the birth certificate parade because some little voice tells me it could all be a head fake. Now, I have to admit that another little voice tells me there could very well be something to it, too. And if he does have a valid BC, then why spend millions of dollars to keep it hidden? I just have too many questions about him and why he’s guarded his life like no one I’ve ever seen in public life before. If I’m not mistaken, his annual physical has never been released nor were his medical records during the campaign. (Someone correct me with evidence, if I’m wrong, please.) I’ve never seen a politician with so many aspects of his life “off limits” like this guy.

But I digress.

The point is that this man we (well, not me) put in the Oval Office seems like he’s not one of us. He feels different from all the other Americans we know, we work with or work for, we love, we marry, we fight with and for. Obama is not like any of my neighbors or my state Senator. His values are not our values. For me, he IS the Anti-American. His principles are nothing like mine.

When you think about it, he didn’t grow up like a typical American. His youth was spent in foreign lands with foreign traditions and cultures. Is that a bad thing? Maybe, because it means that he can’t really relate to the typical American. He faked it pretty well during the campaign but now that he’s sitting in the White House, the difference between him and pretty much most of America, is very clear and he’s doing very little to hide it.

I guess what makes me the most uncomfortable about Obama is that he’s made me the enemy. I can’t remember a president who made those in the opposing party into the enemy, like this man has. (I find myself wistfully wishing for the days of Bill Clinton…. kinda.) To Obama, it’s them against us and by framing it this way, he’s made me feel like I’m in a civil war with my own government.

Remember when he said that we were no longer red states or blue states but now we were united states? He only said it once because he never really meant it.

Here we go again – More restrictions on our freedoms by the Do-gooders

Senator Droopy Dick Blumenthal (D-Conn) wants the FDA to ban menthol flavored cigarettes.

Why? Because flavored cigarettes are more attractive to kids.

I wish these people would just go away and leave me the hell alone!!!!!

Every time I turn around it’s one more thing these do-gooders are up to and every thing they do, removes one more of my rights.

LaHood wants to put technology in our cars that will deactivate our cell phones when we are in them  – driving or not.

It takes almost an act of congress to buy my Sudafed for my sinuses now.

Stop me now!!! this rant is going to drive me to slit my wrists ….
