New TV Series Mocks Environmentalists

Mike Judge, creator of Beavis and Butthead is doing a new series that targets the foolish behavior of environmentalists:

Director Mike Judge’s new animated television series “The Goode Family” is a send-up of a clan of environmentalists who live by the words “What would Al Gore do?” Gerald and Helen Goode want nothing more than to minimize their carbon footprint. They feed their dog, Che, only veggies (much to the pet’s dismay) and Mr. Goode dutifully separates sheets of toilet paper when his wife accidentally buys two-ply. And, of course, the family drives a hybrid.

This show really has huge possibilities. Can't wait to see it! Wednesdays at 9PM (Eastern) on ABC.

Racist Quote of the Day

Spoken by Obama's Supreme Court Justice nominee, Sonia Sotomayor:

I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn’t lived that life.

So much for blind justice!

Honoring Memorial Day

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families of those who have given their lives so that others might live. As we've heard and read from time immemorial in the book of John 15:13:

"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends."

This day is set apart for those who have done just that.

The good folks at Lucianne.com remind us that the United States Armed Forces as well as others in uniform have made that ultimate sacrifice. They gave their lives that we could live here in peace. It is they we honor today.

There is another who paid the ultimate price for us; Jesus Christ gave His life that we could have eternal life.

May we never forget those who made that willing sacrifice for us.

Kumbaya

Kudos to the witty and prolific Michael Ramirez.

(By the way, have you ever wondered just what the hell "Kumbaya" really means?)

CHENEY'S Quote of the Day

Dick Cheney's powerful speech yesterday was duly welcomed by those of us who yearn for a wise leader who is strong on national defense.

There's a good piece in today's New York Post titled, CHENEY'S WISE WORDS in which I've chosen a couple of lines worthy of remembrance and suitable for quoting:

No moral code requires Americans to commit suicide to spare terrorists unpleasantries. When an entire population is targeted by a terror network, nothing is more consistent with American values than to stop them.

It's terrifying that our current president would sacrifice the security of our nation for the contrived "rights" of those who would destroy us.

Screw the Kindergartners, I have to get my new Steelers jersey

Big Govt never fails to disappoint. It appears as though President Obama snubbed a group of Kindergartners because they were 10 minutes late and he had to get ready for a luncheon with the Pittsburg Steelers.

Watch the short video:



One can only hope this will have made a lasting impression on these youngin's.

"Why the Left hates Dick Cheney"

My buddy Mike, over at Let's Think About That aptly explains why the left hates Cheney so palpably:

Thursday, May 21, 2009
This is why the Left hates Dick Cheney

Clear. Concise. Devastating.

The Left hates Dick Cheney even more than they hate God. Why? Because they can't win a debate against him. They can emote and call him names. But he will always make them look silly in any serious debate (remember how infantile Cheney made John Edwards look in 2004?).

Today, Dick Cheney made mincemeat of the Left's moralizing about terrorism, interrogations, and the supposed "crimes" of the Bush administration. It's obvious that Cheney has finally had enough of all the BS from BO and the Left. Cheney is a man who wants to get a lot of baggage off his shoulders and into the open for a real public debate. In short, Cheney finally stepped up and defended he and Bush's administration - after 8 long years. Is it any wonder why Obama regrets releasing the CIA memos , is so defensive on the terror/interrogation subject, and just wants the debate to end now? The Left has gotten so used to Bush/Republicans NOT defending themselves, this speech is really throwing them for a loop. I love it.

Go there to read Cheney's timely words of wisdom and compare them to the vacuous campaign speeches of President Obama's teleprompter.

Be sure to visit Mike's blog early and often. He's tuned in and on top of it.

Cheney's Poll Numbers on the Rise

As Dick Cheney continues to "speak truth to power" (don't you love it when you can use leftist talking points against them...) his popularity is rising, according to the CNN Political Ticker.

That fact will make the appeasing and accommodating liberal republicans who claim to own the republican party (a la McCain and Powell et al) uncomfortable to say the least.

Mainstream America is yearning, no, aching for right thinking, positive leadership. We're sick of politicians (read team Obama) who regularly denigrate America and Americans and proceed to tear down every shred of traditional Americana and in the process destroy our economy. May God deal with them for their wanton destruction of this country.

God help us and forgive us for degenerating to this pathetic state.

"The Climate-Industrial Complex"

The Wall Street Journal Opinion Journal online has an ingenius moniker for the entire industry that is benefiting from the so-called global warming hoax and sheeple driven "green movement". They call it the The Climate-Industrial Complex. I hope the term goes viral. Here's a portion of the piece written by Bjorn Lomborg:

Some business leaders are cozying up with politicians and scientists to demand swift, drastic action on global warming. This is a new twist on a very old practice: companies using public policy to line their own pockets.

The tight relationship between the groups echoes the relationship among weapons makers, researchers and the U.S. military during the Cold War. President Dwight Eisenhower famously warned about the might of the "military-industrial complex," cautioning that "the potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist." He worried that "there is a recurring temptation to feel that some spectacular and costly action could become the miraculous solution to all current difficulties."

This is certainly true of climate change. We are told that very expensive carbon regulations are the only way to respond to global warming, despite ample evidence that this approach does not pass a basic cost-benefit test. We must ask whether a "climate-industrial complex" is emerging, pressing taxpayers to fork over money to please those who stand to gain.

It's an important piece. We need to be keenly aware of who stands to make big money over this forced phenomenon, starting with politicians like Al Gore, who has made a vast fortune scaring entire generations into "going green".

Climate-Industrial Complex indeed.

Reason #644 Why I Love Dick Cheney

I wish Dick Cheney was president. In his world, there is 'no middle ground' when it comes to fighting the war against terrorists:

An unapologetic Cheney gave no ground, and aimed his fire squarely at a president who, in keeping with his political modus operandi, had just sought to balance the demands of left and right.

On the specific issues of the harsh interrogation practices and the Guantanamo detention center, Cheney was equally aggressive.

“The released memos were carefully redacted to leave out references to what our government learned through the methods in question,” the former vice president said of the declassified documents released last month. “Other memos, laying out specific terrorist plots that were averted, apparently were not even considered for release. For reasons the administration has yet to explain, they believe the public has a right to know the method of the questions, but not the content of the answers.”

He added: “Releasing the interrogation memos was flatly contrary to the national security interest of the United States.”

On the controversial detention center, Cheney asserted Obama’s decision was rooted in politics not the safety of Americans – and that the move this week by the Senate to strip funding for closing the facility underscored the difficulty of closing it down.

“The administration has found that it’s easy to receive applause in Europe for closing Guantanamo,” Cheney said. “But it’s tricky to come up with an alternative that will serve the interests of justice and America’s national security.”

For all his criticism of Obama – and he even tweaked the president for his lengthy speech, noting that it underscored his roots in the Senate – Cheney also presented a detailed defense of the controversial steps taken in the wake of 9/11 and reminded exactly who it was these tactics were being used again(st).

Be sure to read the entire piece. Cheney's strength and resolve make President Obama look woefully inadequate, no, dangerous, when it comes to securing our national defense.

You gotta love this: "Reusable grocery bags may cause food poisoning"

You've seen them at Whole Foods and Trader Joe's. They are the keepers of the environment; the conscientious ones among us who really think their reusable "earth friendly" shopping bags are making an impact in the effort to stop global warming (or cooling or climate change of any kind).

Now, it may be postulated that reusable grocery bags cause food poisoning. That's right; if they are not washed and disinfected after each use, deadly bacteria could be left behind. But won't that require more water and more energy to be used? Yup!

"The main risk is food poisoning," Dr. Richard Summerbell, research director at Toronto-based Sporometrics and former chief of medical mycology for the Ontario Ministry of Health, stated in a news release. Dr. Summerbell evaluated the study results.

"But other significant risks include skin infections such as bacterial boils, allergic reactions, triggering of asthma attacks, and ear infections," he stated.

The study found that 64% of the reusable bags tested were contaminated with some level of bacteria and close to 30% had elevated bacterial counts higher than what's considered safe for drinking water.

Further, 40% of the bags had yeast or mold, and some of the bags had an unacceptable presence of coliforms, faecal intestinal bacteria, when there should have been 0.

"The presence of faecal material in some of the reusable bags is particularly concerning," Dr. Summerbell stated. "All meat products should be individually wrapped before being placed in a reusable bag to prevent against leakage. This should become a mandated safety standard across the entire grocery industry."

Don't use your cloth grocery bags for toting gym clothes or diapers or anything but your groceries to prevent possible exposure to a superbug called community-acquired MRSA, a highly antibiotic-resistant form of a common infectious bacterium, Dr. Summerbell cautioned.

The study was funded by the Environment and Plastics Industry Council (EPIC), an industry initiative to promote responsible use and recovery of plastic resources. EPIC is a committee of the Canadian Plastics Industry Association.

Check out the story. It's another case of stereotypical unintended circumstances when people make feel-good, emotional decisions based on what those in the "green movement" tell them they need to do to save "mother earth".

Now what will these folks do? They may have to wait for a United Nations decision on the matter before going shopping again.

A Balsy New Ad Campaign

WorldNetDaily has begun an ad campaign featuring this billboard. Maybe it'll cause some of the sheeple to ask some questions. Maybe...

"Freedom Is Earned"

A friend of mine in San Antonio put together this little ditty a few days ago and I just got around to watching it. Vince Thompson is one of the good guys and he, like millions of us, is fed up with politicians who are taking us down the path of socialist serfdom. Watch Vince's video, Freedom Is Earned and then pass it on:

Paul Harvey, we hardly knew ye!

WorldNetDaily is running an appropriate piece titled, Where's Paul Harvey when we really need him? Go there and read it. It's more or less a plug for a new book written by Paul Batura titled Good Day!: The Paul Harvey Story. I look forward to reading it.

Paul Harvey was one of my boyhood mentors with whom I convened at every available noonday. He was that lone steady rock in the media who you could count on for a welcome shot of Americana so absent in the news business. He was everything to the ear that Norman Rockwell was to the eye and though you would often hear him say with a smile in his voice "there's no need worrying, nothing's going to turn out right," his commentary made you think that things very well may turn out all right.

The above linked WND piece is well worth reading, especially if you were a devotee of Mr. Harvey; check it out.

In 1999, Mr. Harvey wrote a prescient commentary titled, If I were the devil ... It's available at WorldNetDaily and right here:

WND.ARCHIVES, AUG. 16, 1999
If I were the devil ...

I would gain control of the most powerful nation in the world;

I would delude their minds into thinking that they had come from man's effort, instead of God's blessings;

I would promote an attitude of loving things and using people, instead of the other way around;

I would dupe entire states into relying on gambling for their state revenue;

I would convince people that character is not an issue when it comes to leadership;

I would make it legal to take the life of unborn babies;

I would make it socially acceptable to take one's own life, and invent machines to make it convenient;

I would cheapen human life as much as possible so that the life of animals are valued more than human beings;

I would take God out of the schools, where even the mention of His name was grounds for a lawsuit;

I would come up with drugs that sedate the mind and target the young, and I would get sports heroes to advertise them;

I would get control of the media, so that every night I could pollute the mind of every family member for my agenda;

I would attack the family, the backbone of any nation.

I would make divorce acceptable and easy, even fashionable. If the family crumbles, so does the nation;

I would compel people to express their most depraved fantasies on canvas and movie screens, and I would call it art;

I would convince the world that people are born homosexuals, and that their lifestyles should be accepted and marveled;

I would convince the people that right and wrong are determined by a few who call themselves authorities and refer to their agenda as politically correct;

I would persuade people that the church is irrelevant and out of date, and the Bible is for the naive;

I would dull the minds of Christians, and make them believe that prayer is not important, and that faithfulness and obedience are optional;

I guess I would leave things pretty much the way they are.

Hmmm...maybe things aren't going to turn out right!

Just a Drip

Thanks to the news junkies at Lucianne.com for this one.

Reason #637 Why I love Dick Cheney

Kudos to Dick Cheney for standing up for conservatism in light of all the left leaning republicans who denigrate Reagan and Rush and conservatives in general for fear of mainstream criticism. This is the very reason Cheney has been so hated by the media and those on the left; he just has never cared what they thought about him.

It's the same with Rush and Sarah Palin and Christian conservatives in general; they (we) are viscerally hated because they (we) really don't care what the left thinks of them (us).

Here's the money quote from Cheney's weekend appearance on Face the Nation:

BOB SCHIEFFER: Rush Limbaugh said the other day the that the party would probably be better off if Colin Powell left and just became a Democrat. Colin Powell said Republicans would be better off if they didn't have Rush Limbaugh speaking for them. Where do you come down?

DICK CHENEY: Well, if I had to choose, in terms of being a Republican, I'd go with Rush Limbaugh I think. My take on it was Colin had already left the party. I didn't know he was still a Republican.

SCHIEFFER: So you think that he's not a Republican?

CHENEY: I just noted he endorsed the Democratic candidate for President this time, Barack Obama. I assume that that's some indication of his loyalty and his interests.

SCHIEFFER: And you said you take Rush Limbaugh over Colin Powell?

CHENEY: I would, politically.

It wasn't reported whether or not Bob Schieffer fell off his chair in disbelief.

Doug Giles: "God Has His Ways of Getting a Nation’s Attention"

It's been way too long since I've had a good dose of the gospel according to Doug Giles. I like this guy! He's not your typical emasculated goody two shoes; he unapologetically tells it like it is. Way to go Giles; someone out there needs to lay it on the line!

When Old Testament Israel strayed from following God, Yahweh had unique and painful ways of getting the Hebrews’ attention. His first line of attack was to send in His prophets—who were not the shiny, happy-clappy, cliché-spewing, aphorism-addicted mega church pastors who are more interested in hawking their books than bearding the priests of Baal.

No, the prophets were wrecking cranes to wayward Israel’s facades. They were imperfect, difficult dudes who called a spade a shovel for a perfect God. They didn’t give a crap who you were, who your mommy was, if you were the King or Pastor Whoop-Dee-Frickin’-Do. They were fiercely devoted to God and His ways. Janet Napolitano would call these truth-tellers “terror threats” because they loathed godless governments and butt-kissing priests and had no problem whatsoever letting those entities have it verbally.

There's more...

Yep, if you were out of sorts with God because of practicing whacked stuff or preaching Oprah instead of Obadiah, you were about to be publically roasted via the prophets’ sizzling invectives.

Need a mental image? Imagine Rush, Beck, Coulter, Miller or O’Reilly on steroids.

This skewering, to be sure, was about as fun for the rebel recipients as watching Nancy Pelosi do an interpretive dance of “Riders on the Storm” (the extended version) would be for Simon Cowell.

A humiliating open rebuke, however, was a mere love tap when compared to an eternity of misery and the coming decades-long national butt kicking Israel was in line to receive should they remain contumacious.

That's just the first page. Don't miss page two.

Giles rocks!

Moms...Important tasks await your babies

A Mother's Day tribute from the immortal Paul Harvey:

So, you are going to have a baby. A pair never beat a full house, they say.

Into such a world you are about to bring a baby. Next month, maybe. You are not human if you have not wondered through each long night if it is right.

Mothers have worried about that-since a long time before you switched to low heels. You'll have to endure the mornings and the waiting and the dieting, and the waiting and the wondering and the waiting, ...alone.

But in worrying you have lots of company.

When Nancy of Kentucky entered the valley of the shadow, what was there for her baby? The British were shooting at us in a prelude to war.

A former candidate for President and member of the Senate was being tried for treason. Her husband was an illiterate, wandering laborer.

But in the agony of poverty, war, and public scandal, Nancy Lincoln's baby was born.

Suppose you had been Mary, a slave girl.

To you in Diamond Grove, Mo., in 1864, it would have seemed the whole mad world was aflame.

Civil War matched the cruel weapons of Grant and Lee.

Sherman was shooting and looting his way to the sea.

Had Mary known that six weeks later she and her boy child would be kidnaped by nightriders and that she would never be heard from again, it would not have changed things. She would have had her baby

For there were reasons George Washington Carver had to be.

There were important reasons.

We were at war with Mexico when tiny Tom Edison arrived in Ohio, The day he invented the electric light out in Indian Territory, to two worried half-breed Cherokee Indians, a boy was born.

He was named Will ...Rogers.

In Minnesota Edith was frightened, too. In 1898 the United States was barely struggling to its financial feet when the battleship Maine blew up and the Spanish-American War exploded with it. At the height of the storm Edith's child was born ...Charles Mayo of Rochester.

It was uncertain adventure for Harry and Catherine Crosby of Tacoma, Wash.

Then too, there was a war to be won. But more, there was a song to be sung. And Bing was born.

That is what I am trying to say. That is the whole of it. That there is an important job to do ---- for a teacher, preacher, mechanic, for a barber, carpenter, doctor or somebody to grub out the sewers. It is important.

Even if there are wars.

For it is the soul of man that has to be tried.

An eternity is being populated. Each must test his wings alone. Until he flies.

Then they will take this small world from us and give us the skies.

But we have to be here first. That is why what you are about to do is so important.

For each woman there is this personal Garden of Gethsemane. She goes there for strength. I have not tried to tell you it is easy. Only that it is terribly important.

None, holding our hand, can erase the terror, born of the lateness of the hour. And the stories of old women. Always old ones. Often childless.

Impatient, tired, you will, of course, be worried.

Since long before Mary, mothers have been anxious for their offspring. But have borne them in stables and hidden them in bulrushes. Have borne them unattended in the bouncing bed of a Conestoga wagon racing to outdistance savages, in unheated frontier cabins, or, just as alone, midst the antiseptic whiteness of great hospitals.

Because it is important that they do. It has ever been so!

A while of moonlight and roses, a lifetime of dishwater and diapers, toys that will not run, noses that will not stop.

And women, back into the garden ...and again.

Barefoot over broken glass.

Humming a lullaby.

Borrowed from The Chronicle, Centralia, WA.

Happy Prayer Day! (just a couple of days late)

Okay, so it's a couple of days after the fact. Still, you're gonna love this bit by Steven Crowder. You'll be seeing and hearing way more of him I promise:

It's a beautiful thing when Mother Nature flips off the global warming whackos

You'll be hard put to find this news item in the lapdog propagandist media here in the states; no, you have to go to Canada or Britain to get the good stuff. Here are a couple of the money paragraphs of the above linked piece:

As the clock ticks down towards December's historic UN Copenhagen conference on climate change, the frenzied efforts of the warmists to panic us over all that vanishing Arctic and Antarctic ice are degenerating into farce.

That great authority Ban Ki-moon, the UN's Secretary-General, solemnly tells us that the polar ice caps are "melting far faster than was expected just two years ago". Yet the latest satellite information from the US National Snow and Ice Data Center (passed on by the Watts Up With That blog) shows that, after the third slowest melt of April Arctic ice in 30 years, the world's polar sea ice is in fact slightly above its average extent for early May since satellite records began in 1979.

It's a short piece; click on the link and read it and remind your friends that they're being snookered all for the sake of taking more of our money.

Happy Friday! Have a little chuckle!

Jodi Miller at NewsBusters.org is a good way to get into the weekend:

John Adams on Our Need for God

John Adams was eloquent on his deep belief that our relationship with God was of utmost importance if we were to keep this Constitutional Republic. On this National Day of Prayer, it's good to reread these timeless thoughts of one of our brilliant and prescient founding dads. This is from the Heritage of the Founding Fathers website:

“Suppose a nation in some distant region should take the Bible for their only law book, and every member should regulate his conduct by the precepts there exhibited! Every member would be obliged in conscience, to temperance, frugality, and industry; to justice, kindness and charity towards his fellow men; and to piety, love and reverence toward Almighty God… What a Utopia, what a Paradise would this region be.”

“It must be felt that there is no national security but in the nation’s humble acknowledged dependence upon God and His overruling providence.”

"[I]t is religion and morality alone which can establish the principles upon which freedom can securely stand. The only foundation of a free constitution is pure virtue."

"[W]e have no government armed with power capable of contending with human passions unbridled by morality and religion. . . . Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other."

"The moment the idea is admitted into society, that property is not as sacred as the laws of God, and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence. If "Thou shalt not covet," and "Thou shalt not steal," were not commandments of Heaven, they must be made inviolable precepts in every society, before it can be civilized or made free."

"Statesmen...may plan and speculate for Liberty, but it is Religion and Morality alone, which can establish the Principles upon which Freedom can securely stand.... The only foundation of a free Constitution, is pure Virtue, and if this cannot be inspired into our People, in a great Measure, than they have it now, They may change their Rulers, and the forms of Government, but they will not obtain a lasting Liberty."

John Adams

God Bless America (please?) on this National Day of Prayer

On this National Day of Prayer, maybe our prayer shouldn't be "God bless, America" but rather "Please, Lord, have mercy on America!"

There must have been a time in this country when more than half of the population believed in God and believed in the power of prayer. I know the vast majority of our founding fathers did because so many of them wrote about God and the importance of morality and religion in order for the nation to survive. In other words, people needed to abide in the Golden Rule.

But at some point in the last 100 years, or so, the concept of a real God has been institutionally marginalized. It was a slow process, as are all movements, but recently the race to marginalize God and all He stands for is turning into an all out race to denigrate and dispirit those who stand up for God and try to live according to his Word. The onslaught against Judaeo/Christian beliefs is unprecedented in this country to the point that even our president is distancing himself from from this National Day of Prayer.

If ever we needed a National Day of Prayer, it is today, before these distressing times become even more distressful.

For those who take this National Day of Prayer seriously, I pray that our numbers are huge; a spiritual Tea Party, as it were, that He will hear our pleas for help and guidance and forgiveness.

There is a big "but" in all this. America needs to ask God to forgive us for vanquishing Him from virtually every institution and for turning away from Him and His commandments at break-neck speeds.

Readers of the Bible are familiar with Deuteronomy 28. It's sometimes referred to as the "blessings and cursing" chapter. In a nutshell it lays out all the good things that will happen to a country that keeps His laws and all the bad things that will happen when we don't keep His laws. The thing is, these are natural laws and God doesn't have to lift a finger for the end result to come about. He doesn't have to push the "smite" button to punish us. The result of lawbreaking comes with its own punishment.

We live in dangerous and foreboding times on so many levels. This country and the entire world needs as many praying people that we can stir up.

God bless you if you are a praying person and may God have mercy on us all.

Obama Downplays National Day of Prayer

According to Christianity Today, President Obama won't be making any special plans at the white house in celebration of the National Day of Prayer:

The Obama administration says it will issue a proclamation marking the National Day of Prayer on Thursday, but appears to be moving away from the White House ceremonies hosted by former President George W. Bush.

The article continued:

During Bush's eight years in office, prominent evangelicals, including National Day of Prayer Task Force chairman Shirley Dobson, and her husband, Focus on the Family founder James Dobson, gathered each year for an East Room ceremony on the first Thursday in May.

"We are disappointed in the lack of participation by the Obama administration," Shirley Dobson said in a statement issued by the task force on Monday. "At this time in our country's history, we would hope our president would recognize more fully the importance of prayer."

Help Save the National Day of Prayer

Tomorrow is the National Day of Prayer. There are powerful and well-monied organizations who want to destroy this day. Please engage in this battle to Help Save the National Day of Prayer. Even if you're not a praying person, this battle is an attack on one of our most precious freedoms clearly spelled out in the First Amendment

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

"Misspeak of the Week"

Paraphrase alert; I want Norm Coleman to be the next senator of Minnesota...no wait, I'm a democrat now...I'm in full support of Al Franken. Yeah, that's the ticket!

Yep, that's the paraphrased thinking of Arlan Specter according to me and to CQ Politics:

Asked whether he cared about a shortage of Jewish Republicans in the Senate, Specter replied: “I sure do. There’s still time for the Minnesota courts to do justice and declare Norm Coleman the winner.”

But questioned outside the Senate chamber Tuesday, Specter said the comment was a mistake.

“In the swirl of moving from one caucus to another, I have to get used to my new teammates,” he said. “I’m ordinarily pretty correct in what I say. I’ve made a career of being precise. I conclusively misspoke.”

Asked who he’s backing now in elections, Specter said, “I’m looking for more Democratic members. Nothing personal.”

And sadly, he's probably not even embarrassed!

"The President Who Hates His Country"

You won't read a headline or story like this in our bankrupt mainstream media. You have to go outside our borders or listen to Talk radio to read or hear something like this. What a shame when the press of any country hasn't the wherewithal to voice what is obvious to casual observers at home and abroad.

You have to go to the Canada Free Press to get this: The President Who Hates His Country. Without their permission I'll share a few of the money paragraphs:

We also know that during his run for the presidency, Obama expressed sneering condescension towards all those bible-clasping, gun-owning yahoos who “cling” to those silly things, and that in Europe he consistently gave voice to America’s supposed “sins.” But all that pales in comparison to the clear contempt – looks more like hatred to me – that Obama feels for the United States of America and for its most revered founding document, the U.S. Constitution.

In just the first 100-days of his tenure, Obama’s words and actions have demonstrated that he is no friend of the country he leads. This is only a smattering of what happened on his recent three-continent trip abroad and to Mexico:

In France, Obama told his audience that America “has shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive” toward Europe.
In Prague, Obama – in true utopian-kindergarten fashion – pledged “with conviction” that America will “seek the peace and security of a world without nuclear weapons.” In other words, destroy big bad America’s ability to defend itself!
In London, Obama made clear that the world’s financial wealth was no longer made by those inferior leaders Roosevelt and Churchill, effectively ceding America’s leading role in creating and sharing wealth to nations that have never measured up to our country’s bountiful generosity or spirit of free-market entrepreneurship.
In Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, Obama sat passively while the Marxist Chavez handed him an American-bashing book and delivered another revile-America speech, while never once rising to defend our country.
In Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, Obama again sat passively while the Marxist Ortega blamed the United States for a century of what he called terroristic U.S. aggression in Central America, again emitting not a whisper of defense on our country’s behalf.
In Turkey, Obama said – incredibly and inaccurately – that America was not a Christian nation.
And in his recent trip to Mexico, Obama said that the escalating border violence was essentially America’s fault.
Scan you memory. Can you think of any other leader in world history who so consistently badmouths his own country, or fails to defend it? I can’t.

Please read the entire piece. Then spread the word to your sound asleep friends and relatives while you still have freedom of speech and thought.

Wake UP America!!! This regime is a dictatorship in the making!

Jeb Bush throws in the towel

Here's a sad and all too commom commentary on the republican party from Jeb Bush:"It's time to leave Reagan behind." Right! Swerving to the left, a la McCain, got us Obama.

But then the republicans have been racing to the left for almost as long as the dems have. Pity!

The republicans don't need to become more like the dems; they need to return to their conservative roots.

What he MEANT to say...

Thanks to the good folks at Lucianne.com for always being on the cutting edge of leftist idiocy. How embarrassing it must be to be a democrat these days! How embarrassing for the president to have a vice president like Biden and a press secretary like Gibbs. How embarrassing it is for America to have a president who would appoint incompetents such as these. Embarrassing indeed!

Uncle Jay Explains The News

The latest episode of Uncle Jay explains what "hysteria" is all about. Better watch it for yourself so you'll be able to know when to be and when not to be hysterical:

Heroes Proved: The Honor Flight Network

On his Friday show, Hugh Hewitt brought due attention to a little known organization called the Honor Flight Network that flies WWII vets, able or disabled, free of charge to Washington DC to be able to visit the National WWII Memorial.

God bless these people who are honoring our WWII vets as they near the end of their tour, so to speak.

Please give this site some of your time and if you can swing it, some of your money.

There is an apt quote by Will Rogers at the Honor Flight Network's site:

We can't all be heroes. Some of us have to stand on the curb and clap as they go by.

Some Prescient Quotes to Ponder

Democracy and socialism have nothing in common but one word, equality. But notice the difference: while democracy seeks equality in liberty, socialism seeks equality in restraint and servitude.

Alexis de Tocqueville

Americans have the right and advantage of being armed - unlike the citizens of other countries whose governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.

James Madison

A learned blockhead is a greater blockhead than an ignorant one.

Benjamin Franklin

Because power corrupts, society's demands for moral authority and character increase as the importance of the position increases.

John Adams

Government is not reason; it is not eloquent; it is force. Like fire, it is a dangerous servant and a fearful master.

George Washington

A wise and frugal government, which shall leave men free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of labor the bread it has earned - this is the sum of good government.

Thomas Jefferson

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

Freedom prospers when religion is vibrant and the rule of law under God is acknowledged.

Ronald Reagan

Galluping away from the truth

Got this link from an informed buddy; check it out. Gallup and the lapdog media are flummoxed by Obama's numbers so they're forced to obfuscate the headlines knowing full well most people won't see the poll results in context. Go to the History News Network to get the real skinny:

Gallup reports that 56% of the public believes that Obama is doing an excellent/good job. Gallup reported 62% approved of George W. Bush's job performance after the first 100 days. MSM tells us how popular Barack Obama is but the numbers tell a different story especially when used comparatively. Comparing the Gallup poll taken following the first 100 day of George W. Bush and Barack Obama is rather informative especially given the highly contentious nature of the 2000 election.

Here are the numbers for other presidents:


April approval ratings in first year in office
Bush now 62%
Clinton, 1993 55
Bush, 1989 58
Reagan, 1981 67
Carter, 1977 63
Nixon, 1969 61
Sampling error: +/-3% pts

Now justify these headlines:

Gallup: First-100-Days-Obama-Meets-Exceeds-Expectations. By the way, the wording of the question is most suspect as many (including me) expected him to do just as poorly as he is doing. But Gallup is going even further. It uses his daily tracking poll to cover up the results of the 100 day poll.
