There seems to be a predictable lack of MSM cynicism regarding the White House announcement that it was Bill Clinton who offered Joe Sestak a job in the Obama administration. But there is plenty of laughter, and one of the persons laughing is Bill Clinton. Huh, huh, huh...That Bob Bauer...what a card!
Bob Bauer’s story is that the White House offered Sestak an “alternate path to service” so he could keep his job in the House and still stand next to Obama during photo opportunities. Under federal rules, that would be illegal if the job offer (or alternative path to service) was a paid position like Secretary of the Navy.
If Bauer’s version is the entire version, then Rahm asked President Clinton to ask Sestak….and you know the rest. But if the story were that simple, then why were there months of delay when the story first surfaced? Were there other attempts at persuading Sestak to quit the race? Of course, this opaque White House, with its secretive ways and fortress mentality, is not going to stand for putting Bill Clinton and Rahm Emmanuel under oath, but why not Joe Sestak?
If there’s nothing there, then the White House gains in credibility, and the cynics disappear into the woodwork.

Obama Press Conference Today Will Address Two Big Questions
Obama Press Conference Today Will Address Two Big Questions
I sense another Obama charm offensive coming after today’s hopefully serious press conference. The President’s recent joking and self-deprecating remarks about his waning popularity and “Hitler moustache” do elicit sympathy, especially to those who confuse personality cult with national leadership. But presidential hipness and studiously contrived noble poses wear thin as the sea birds and undersea life wear their new coats of oil slick, and people begin to wonder if their inexperienced president can “get real” about pesky things like massive deficit spending and the drift toward opaque backroom deals and political corruption.

Legal Immigration Ignored by LameStream Media
I've often advocated that Americans focus on LEGAL immigration. That's one way to mitigate the media and government demagoguery that is controlling the debate over the Arizona law. The Obama administration is in desperation mode as it tries to characterize the Arizona law as racist. Plus ca change. That's what they do, isn't it?
My own parents immigrated and I have a few friends who are legal immigrants. I also have a friend who, with his wife and infant son, was deported in January 2009. He's Russian, his wife is Latvian, and his son is a mix of both, obviously. They are great hard-working people. He (Alex) had been admitted into the U.S. legally, but failed to respond to letters asking him to report. He had moved to another state to get work and was far away from Ohio, where he had been summoned.
All this lie and dissemble stuff from the Obama White House ignores the problems. It hurt legal immigrants who must pay large amounts of money, and wait enormous amounts of time to obtain citizenship.
How many times has the news media featured the story of the hardships of the legal immigrant? Nada.

Rima Fakih a Faker?
Rima Fakih, on Fox News, didn’t look nearly as hot as her touched up photos for the radio station which can be seen on the internet. On Fox, she wore a ribbon of a skirt, a clashing purple outfit, and an ersatz looking crown. I found her completely unattractive, not because she is of the Arab persuasion, as I’ve met many far more beautiful Arab women. There is tawdry aspect to her—not because of the sexy pictures dancing on a bar—but because she had a rough, unpolished look which could not be subdued by TV studio makeup.
You feel a little embarrassed for her, knowing that her pageant victory was strictly a political deal. I felt sorry for the runner-up, far more beautiful, intelligent, and personable. Well, everyone knows that, so I’m not telling you anything you don’t know. Obama’s left-wing imposed political correctness standards on the pageant, and his popularity in what Deborah Schlussel calls “Dearbornistan,” has contributed to this travesty. Along with Hizbollah’s monetary support and Donald Trump’s public prostration.
It was the Arizona Immigration Law that provided the opportunity for a political biased pageant judge to trip up Elizabeth Woolard, who outshone Kakih in intelligence in the same ratio as beach lighthouse compares to a flashlight. Woolard’s answer was too bright—she opposed “profiling” while saying she had a great deal of respect for state’s rights. Wasn’t that the way the U.S. Constitution was written?
Rima Faker’s answers to the Fox News anchors questions were dull and wooden. That is one stupid chick—and the pageant brand will suffer severely. Hasn’t Obama told us already—you can’t put lipstick on a pig. It’s still a pig.
Oh, and Rima…. If birth control were a “controlled substance” in the U.S., as you said when you tripped through the pageant, you might just as well have stayed in Lebanon.
South Koreans Say They Have Proof North Korea Torpedoed Boat
Oh, crap! The world I woke up to yesterday is the same one I woke up to today. Trouble is, the peeps in the White House are pretending it’s different. The North Koreans torpedo a South Korean ship and the White House clears its collective throat and says this is an opportunity to hold out the Olive Branch. 46 dead South Koreans who were aboard the attacked vessel can’t get their hands out. I’m not saying we should attack North Korea…I’m just sayin’….

Treasury Takes $2.1 Billion Loss and AP Prints White House Bulletin
- Taxpayers are taking a beating on the auto bailouts. The AP reports this Chrysler loss today with a bow to the White House. The AP article takes great pains to point out that the UAW Chrysler and GM bailouts were done on January 2 while George Bush was still in office.
The delicate AP story puts it that the Treasury is taking the loss.
- Treasury?...that’s us, isn’t it? This is typical AP reporting. AP is the communications arm of the Obama White House. How can the dumb-assed reporter not mention the letters, meetings, and transition teams of Obamanites who initiated these bailouts? Does he/she think readers wouldn't be interested in that? Since the election, Pelosi and other Democrats and the transition team had outlined the plan of UAW bailouts and it was a done deal. A barrage of letters from Obama-Reid-Pelosi tell of the planned Obama bailouts. What was Bush supposed to do? Say “no?” Eighteen days later, it would have been done anyway.
- A mere courtesy on the part of the outgoing admin. This is a deliberate slant and it wouldn't surprise me if some Chicago type put a little money into the reporter's pockets.

Pennsylvania Tax Ad Should Aim at Governor Rendell
There's an ad being played on TV here in Pennsylvania which is designed to intimidate people into paying more PA income tax. After running the state into the ground, Fast Eddie Rendell needs the money to redistribute to political cronies. Rendell's obsequious support of the Obama administration and its fantasy world of health care "reform" required him to announce tax increases, rather than cutting down the size of PA bureaucracy, where most of the jobs are.
The scheme wouldn't work without a little nudging, so the geniuses who run the state hired an ad agency which targets a representative taxpayer (Tom) with little nuclear circles. Pay your taxes now, Tom, or something bad will happen to you. It's a very oppressive government ad and completely unnecessary.
I wonder how it would play out if the same little nuclear target circles were put into an ad targeting Governor Ed Rendell.
As in “Do a good job, Rendell, or you will pay heavily for the tax increases you inflict.”
That ad was disgusting, especially in economic times like this.

Obama Administration Tries Again on NYC Bomber Faisal Shahzad
Once the bombs in the 1993 Nissan Pathfinder were discovered, the police did fast work in rolling back the red carpet, catching the slack-jowled Pakistani hater on the tarmac with the intent of fleeing to Dubai. Some of Faisal's accomplices were arrested in Pakistan, and his connections with car, house, cellphone,etc, have been made.
That being said, one can't be too thrilled with the political statements coming out of public officials, many inthe Obama administration. Janet Napolitano doesn't quite get it, talking to America as if it were a kindergarten class, and providing us with the same lame assurances you'd give only to frightened children.
What's really disheartening about the administration, and what's really encouraging to terrorists, is that Obama administration officials have put out so many different messages about the War on Terror that one can only conclude that it is confused.
Michael Schuerer called the latest attack on New York a "success." WHile I wouldn't call it that, I can understand what Schuerer meant. The bomber found it too easy to penetrate New York City with a carload of bombs and related equipment. Obama's overtures to the Muslim world have been and will be interpreted as weakness, and Obama's oratorical retreats from traditional U.S. policies have only encouraged attacks.
Obama's strategic message is not half so bad as the public messages they have been sending. By contrast, consider Vladimir Putin and the messages he sends to his "enemies." Yah, I know, Putin's stooges sat there while the head Irano-Nazi berated the West yesterday. But there won't be any mollifications regarding the latest terror attack on the Russians, you can be sure. And the tough line Moscow has taken on Chechnya, and on Basayeev the Beslan Butcher, does not invite further incursion.
At the same time, we have Eric Holder still undecided about using New York City as the location to try KSM, and you have the Clinton's looked for connections between Shahzad and the Hutaree militia, and Janet Napolitano doing the same.
There's too much b.s. coming from this administration at a time when we need solidity, clarity, and leadership. We don't need to wait until the next attack on a civilian population occurs to get serious about these assholes.
We can get serious and still maintain the rights we have from God and the U.S. Constitution. To think otherwise is to be less than serious.

GM Ad Hoax Tells of Payback Hoax
Remember the TARP program? Remember when Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama sent a letter to the outgoing President Bush asking him to put up some seed money for the Big Three automakers? Just a start, Mr. Bush, just a start. We'll take care of the rest, said Obama and Pelosi.
At that point, who knew that GM and Chrysler-Cerberus (a privately owned investment company) would fall in the category of the Troubled Asset Recovery Program?
Barack Obama: "We've got to dole out money to these companies, folks. If GM and the investment firm of Chrysler Cerberus goes down, you'll be the ones to suffer."
Oh, yeah? How? Can we suffer any more than we are now with unemployment ranging from 10 to 25 percent, depending on what you count?
But now comes this ridiculous GM ad campaign which boasts that GM has paid back the U.S. taxpayers five years sooner than expected.
So they paid back about 8 million with the money we gave to GM, and that came from an escrow account set up compliments of Uncle Sap Taxpayer. Now there's still 73 percent of the money we gave them which is yet to be paid. The U.S. still owns 61 percent of GM; the Canadians some smaller percentage; the UAW the rest.
Where's Obama during all this? Feting the Yankees? Flogging Arizonans for the Latino vote (not mentioning that a significant number of legal Latinos want better immigration control)?
I feel kind of embarrassed that Obama is so clueless about everything. It's not entirely Obama's fault--the fool has no options but to do what he's been taught to do. Besides, you can't blame a brother for trying to get over. Obama's gotten over big, that's all. Obama's gotten over on a bunch of primarily clueless white people who believe they are expiating their racial sins. I love my brown, black, red, yellow, and white brothers and sisters. We all bleed the same color. I don't have any racial sins so why should I have to pay by this bumbling amateur voted into the presidency?
I think more to blame are the people who voted him in. He's out of place in the White House. Perhaps with some years of experience he would have a clue and wouldn't be half as embarrassing.
I think the White House experience is tearing him apart. I think the Obama White House is tearing America apart. I think GM should STFU and file for bankruptcy, followed by Chrysler-Cerberus so that we can at least make a claim of their assets.
Who knows? It might defer some of the giant tax and price increases that are stomping toward us on the horizon.

Public Notice to Valerie Jarrett: Barack Took a Milliion from Goldman Sachs
You already knew. You're talking major flak here. Jarrett did the obligatory appearance on several TV channels to peddle the financial reform package. Fine, but did she have to say: "...we're working for a lot of people who were really hurt by this (Goldman Sachs)..." and blah-blah.
"Champions of the people" in this case are British Banks, German Banks, and American banks and other investors.
News flash for you, Valerie Jarrett. Stop trying to fool people; it's well known that your boss, Barack, got a cool million from Goldman. And you also know that it takes at least a million dollars to even play at the CDO and CDS swaps at Goldman Sachs. People who were affected by the GS scandal can afford whole teams of lawyers, Valerie.
But I guess this is Democrat "populism" these days.

An Afghan Experience: Roads of the Poconos -- the Stroudsburgs
This ia a rant,nothing more. But I'm betting that Stroudsburg and East Stroudsburg, both small towns in Pennsylvania have the worst roads in all the nation. I expect that the roads in the Stroudsburgs are better than those of the Afghan mountains but I'm not sure.
There's not a single road which has not been patched and repatched to the degree that the road appears asphalt quilted. These roads will rattle your shocks, they rattle your teeth, they rattle your tie rods and bearings, and they can shake the paint from your car.
For that matter, most of the people who live in Stroudsburgs drive pickup trucks. Only the heavier, larger pickup trucks can surve these roads, however. The smaller pickups soon become trashed just like the other vehicles.
Of course, the tire replacement stores and the suspension parts stores are doing well but there are many people who cannot afford new tires, struts, tie rods.
The "city" makes all kind of useless expenditure but no one wants to fix the roads. It's the other guys' jobs. Whenever you do see a road crew, it's a large one but it's not working. The road crews look at the roads with malevolent resentment. Make no mistake about it, though; if you see a road crew, you can be sure that road crew is tearing up the roads, not fixing them.
Bump, bump, rattle, rattle--the tourists bypass the towns if they're smart--on the way to the gambling casino at Mount Airy.

Citi sells hedge fund businesses to SkyBridge Hedge Funds - MarketWatch
Citi sells hedge fund businesses to SkyBridge Hedge Funds - MarketWatchSo I'm skeptical about stocks in spite of bounce back which sems to have everyone enthused. I got killed in our index fund and took the emotional exit, dropping out, cementing my losses. That's what you're not supposed to do. Another way of looking at it is that I'm paying for my heart. I'm angry, very angry, and it's likely I'll remain angry.
On the other hand, I had good luck in playing around with small quantities of individual stocks. The first thing I did was buy and sell a local bank stock. I held it for over a year so it would be taxed at a lower rate but I made about 23 percent in profit. Not bad for a rank amateur.
Continuing my blunders, I tucked away a portion of those earnings and put a bit into (you'll laugh) Ford. Essentially, I could only afford "beat up" stocks--cheap. Everyone laughed at me. It was hard to believe the amount of scorn to which I was subjected if I announced this to anyone. I got lucky in the timing. I sold the Ford at a good profit...don't remember exactly.... but then it dropped in price so I bought it again. Again, I made money. I sold Ford short, however; I would have made a lot more if I'd held on to it but still I was happy. A bird in hand. I felt like I'd got over. And then I bought Citi--- Well, I thought they'd finally got me. Citi dropped, dropped further, and kept dropping. I felt bad, afraid to mention it to my wife who had set a strict gambling limit. I bought some more Citi stock.
It took a while, but not Citi "C" is being productive--in its own way. It's not earning anything--has no P/E and no EPS. But the price jump has put me into the black and then some. It's likely I'll hold on for quite some time as the whole business takes too much time. I think Citi will be good investment in the long term.
Citibank announced today it was selling its hedge fund to Skybridge. Good riddance. I hate hedge funds (though they're necessary) because they always make me think of George Soros.

How's that Obama "Engagement" Working Out for You?
I’m willing to accept that there was something to be gained by the “Nuclear Summit” just held by President Obama but they forgot something. Iran. The administration knows that Iran, if it doesn’t already have a bomb, will have one soon, and they consciously choose to ignore it, to leave the problems for the next president. Obama so desperately wants to be perceived as the bearer of the holy olive branch of peace in the world that he’ll let America be pushed around on the world stage by Ahmadinajad. How does the president trust so much that Ahmadinajad won’t hand off a bomb to terrorists? He doesn’t, but yet he’s willing to put off doing anything about it so that he can hold on to his narcissistic vision of presidential greatness.
A great vision it is not. Obama looks more like the Fool on the Hill than the president of the United States, and America’s enemies are well aware of his foolishness. Syria’s dictator, Bashir Assad, is taking advantage of Obama’s feeble-mindedness. Assad’s new assist to Terror Inc. is to provide Hizbollah with Scud missiles with a 465 mile range. Hizbollah terrorists are destructive enough with their current missile range of 60 miles—the new Scud missiles will improve its capabilities of destroying Israel.
Obama’s response to this has been to reward Syria with a new ambassador. Previously, the Bush administration had blocked the appointment of an ambassador to Syria and the Bush White House had also implemented a program of sanctions which Obama ordered now to be loosened.
Of course, this is “leadership” in ObamaLand. Click your heels and spin around three times. When you couple it with the recent tragic and club-footed diplomatic insult of Israel’s President Netanyahu, you’ve got to think Obama’s sure to get another Nobel Prize.

Batting in Left Field Now: President Obama's Supreme Court
“Get me somebody who’s sympathetic to the people who voted for me!,” said President Obama. Well, that’s a slight interpretation but not a “mis” interpretation. Obama has already shown the degree to which he is willing to go against what Americans want in signing the 1-party Health Care Tax and Reform scam.
Here’s the President’s Help Wanted Ad:
Wanted: Supreme Court Justice candidate. Must be able to cry on cue. Gun control background necessary but willing to train declared moderates. American citizenship not required, but illegal aliens are barred from the job, unfortunately. Willing to train, however.
Must be sympathetic to the following causes: renewables of any type, gay marriage, snail darter, convicted criminals (see Victims in Obama lexicon), enemy combatants, and Islamists (note: veting process will ensure that Islamist and “terrorist” will not be used in same context).
Must be opposed to: nuclear power, coal gasification, Israeli (soon to be renamed “Zionism) capitalism of all types, U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights, especially 1st and 2nd Amendments, but could include 10th Amendment.
More details to be published as discussions with Iran continue.

Confused Democrat Bart Stupak Quits Job
I’d like to see a poll of who is the most confused Democrat of all. My guess would be Bart Stupak, who is the latest Democrat Party casualty of promising “no” but voting “yes.” I hope he can get his confusion straightened out. Then perhaps he can stop smearing dissident voices who felt that the health care vote was dishonest and that the bill was patently deceptive. I imagine Bart Stupak could relate to that, and why should he quite therefore?
Of course, Stupak had to sing a swan song, perorating about how mean and vicious anti-Obama forces had created a hostile environment for him. Another smear job, of course, and another indication of party denial.
You don’t hear people like Stupak actually defending the health care bill. I suppose that’s because there is no health care in it, just taxes, and Medicare cuts. Democrats need to avoid such issues, just as they need to avoid the unemployment rate increased by failed stimulus policies.
Instead, you hear these mostly made up stories about how opposition to President Obama’s policies are rooted in racism. The racism drama gets some fantastic embellishments from people who believe they are helping Democrats by advancing this blighted scenario. I never respond to that rot because of what I know in my heart. What need is there of reaction? The racist narrative, so popularized in the smarmy lame-stream press, is just a white liberal fig-leaf covering a small you-know-what. What? J
So Boo-hoo, another Democratic wobbler goes hobbling off into the sunset. Whatever his personal beliefs were, and who really knows except himself, he should not have misled his small contingent of Democrats.
I hope Democrat Jason Altmire gets re-elected. There is an hones man. I don’t agree with him, but I have a great deal of respect for him.
So buh-bye, Bart Stupak, and good riddance!
Israel's Bibi Netanyahu Kicks Nuclear Sumit to the Curb
Apologize for America, alienate your friends, and embrace your enemies is now established policy of the Obama administration. Let there be no doubt of this. The pathetic treatment of Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu stands as a symbol of the low visionary politics promulgated by this administration.
Obama’s intifada has gained strength in the Arab world and Iran, Turkey, and Egypt have taken Obama’s supplications as a signal to continue and expand attacks on the only Democracy in the Middle East.
Bibi’s no punk, however, and with a bit more dignity than Obama could muster in bringing the Israeli leader through the servant’s quarters of the White House, Netanyahu told the WH to go screw. Just because the Obama administration is masochistic and enjoys being whipped doesn’t mean that pride and integrity should be lost around the world.
There’s absolutely no reason Israel should walk into what is a patent ambush, a political dog and pony show designed to demonstrate Obama’s ability to sacrifice integrity at the altar of appeasement.
Our America suffers at this stupidity and there is only one thing to be remembered. The only thing to be gained by selling your friends to the alligators is that you’re the last one eaten.

Female Suicide Bombers Strike Main Subway Line in Moscow
Female Suicide Bombers Strike Main Subway Line in Moscow I had to tune BBC America this morning to get the story about the suicide bombings on the downtown Moscow subway. The U.S. coverage at 6:00 a.m. was limited to a “crawl” at the bottom of the screen. When the U.S. television stations did finally begin broadcasting the story, CNN treated the story as if it were a teaser for “American Idol.” Wait until we tell you why New York City is tightening surveillance on the subways this morning!

Nancy Pelosi: Pass the Bill to Find Out What's In it
Yes, Pelosi is fatuous enough to have said that. I guess Prozac is plentiful in San Francisco. So the vote will occur in a few minutes and it will be fun to watch lock-step Democrats blindly walk the plank though most of the American people don't know this bill is a bad, contrived bill.

The Take: Historic win or not, Democrats could pay a price - washingtonpost.comDemocrats say we're on our way to a historic failure. Health care needed four "fixes" not a 2,000 page bill which wipes out the American at a time when job less is astronomical. HOw can people believe Obama who promised that, if we passed his stimulus bill, unemployment wouldn't go above 8 percent.

Clashes in Jerusalem Mark Rising Tensions - NYTimes.com
Clashes in Jerusalem Mark Rising Tensions - NYTimes.comLeave it to the Obama administration to start an uprising in Jerusalem. After publicly berating the Israelis for building a housing development on Palestinian Jew side of Jerusalem, the Palestinian Arabs took it as a signal of support from Washington. Apparently, the President directed Hillary Clinton to call Netanyahu to complain of the timing, coinciding as it did with Joe Biden's visit.
The other coincidence, which really shows the tone-deafness of this administration, is the this is "IAW" (Israeli "Apartheid" Week) and and Islamist students are doing their anti-Semitic best to spread anti-Jewish propaganda on campuses around the country.
Of course, this far loony-left administration has been anti-Israel in both thought and deed, in spite of what the president may have said to AIPAC before he was elected.
Of course, the Palestinian Arabs are the same people who went to Hitler to ask if they could help with the roundup of the Jews.
Rather than look for the Israelis to apologize, President Obama should apologize, unless like Jesse Jackson, he believes that thoughts like mine come from "Hymietown."
I'm not Jewish but today we should all be Jewish.

Obama's There for Cancer Patient
President Obama is trundling off to Ohio with his entourage in tow. He tells the crowd he's there for a cancer patient who couldn't get health insurance. Trust me, Obama's there for Obama.
If the President so much wants a Health Care Bill, he should do it in such a way that doesn't freeze out more than half the country. I guess that would mean much needed tort reform, making insurance competitive by buying insurance across state lines, getting rid of public pay for abortion, and finding out what the other half of the country wants. Not likely with Obama, surrounded by sychophants.
The latest is that Axelrod et al are trying to scapegoat Rahm Emmanuel for the impasse. Why not the Israelis? They're proving to be a handy scapegoat for an administration which kow-tows to enemies and disparages friends.

Pelosi: Swamp Creature
Ya’ gotta’ wonder. Didn’t Nanzi (sp) Pelosi say she wanted to “drain the swamp?” So how come Wrangel’s still lurking, with his 4 New York City rent-controlled apartments and the income he’s stolen from taxpayers? Not to mention another ½ million in income he forgot to declare.
Speaking of swamp creatures, Nanzi Bytoxic should look into the activities of Pennsylvania representative Paul Kanjorski. Kanjorski routinely spreads the pork grease around to relatives and cronies in the habitually public monies addicted Lackawanna and Wyoming Valleys near Scranton and Wilkes-Barre.
Dancing With David Paterson
On MSNBC this morning, New York Times’ Thomas Friedman ditched any remaining credibility he had by declining to answer Joe Scarborough’s question:
“Do you think David Paterson should resign?”
Duh, tough one! The brain-fat and pompous liberal narcissist said he wasn’t going to comment on that. Why not? Was he involved somehow? In his mind, Friedman thinks he’s so important that he can’t even comment on the obvious. As if his words would resound around the world and he would face difficulties in this occupation for commenting. Isn’t that what he is? A commentator?
This is just about as good a scandal as Spitzer and his whores. Paterson has adopted as a protégé a six foot seven body man who likes to beat his “bitches” down. I suppose that Paterson was initially trying to do a “good thing” by helping a young kid very long ago. Unfortunately, the kid was psychologically unbalanced and, now a man, likes to smack women around.
So when one woman presses for a protection order, our second morally degenerate New York governor joins in a pressure campaign to whitewash the offense. State police emissaries are sent. The governor himself makes phone calls. The woman is terrified but no one will listen. The New York chapter of the National Organization of Women, after heralding Paterson as a champion of women’s rights, has to step in to call for Paterson’s resignation.
Meanwhile, smarmy liberal “thinkers” like Friedman are silent on the issue and that’s the big problem with the liberal line these days. It’s bogus, phony, a cover-up.
Democrats Love Our Enemies; Hate Our Friends
In keeping with its policies of embracing America’s enemies and crapping on its friends, Obama and his desperate Democrats in the House of Representatives passed a resolution which condemned “Armenian Genocide” of 90 plus years ago. Will that soon be followed by another resolution condemning slavery and the Jim Crow laws? Or how about another resolution condemning the Walking Purchase which ripped off a good part of the Eastern Frontier in the 1700s?
It’s just sooooo important to recognize that this Congress has its fingers on the most pressing issues America faces.
Alienating the Turks, who have recently increased their support of the U.S. effort in Afghanistan, is just another of the idiotic brain-dead actions of a failed administration. It’s most disgusting, competing with such idiocy as court martialing a U.S. Navy Seal for capturing terrorist scum who tortured, maimed, desecrated, and murdered Americans who freed Iraq from the vicious tyrant Saddam Hussein.

Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb, Bomb Iran
John McCain was singing the right song, at least, upstaging the Obama administration's latest version of Iran Kumbaya. Hillary Clinton finally found her voice in warning against Iran 'becoming" a military dictatorship. Gee whiz! When did that happen?
It's been happening for a long time and these latest paroxysms in which the Iranian Secret Police are murdering people in the streets met with silence from the Obama administration--until Hillary's broadside. But why didn't Obama take the muzzle off her earlier? Or should I say the "burqua?"
General Petraeus now wants to send some kind of signal to the Iran regime Now, it would be nice if the intensely scripted president would chime in, wouldn't it? Or is he still marveling over the wonders he's achieved by announcing "engagement" with Iran?
I don't know, it's typical of Democrats to leave the issue open for the next president. After all, Obama wants the right of condemnation if the Israelis should remind us that top Nazi Amadinajad wants to "wipe Israel off the map."
Frankly, I think Amadinajad is taking it in the nether regions from Hamas, and maybe from the guy who got snuffed out in that Dubai hotel room. Amadinajad would have plenty of reason for getting rid of an old bf. But how's this going to end? Badly, I'm sure, unless President Obama grows a spine....
I guess we shouldn't be too anxious though. The president took only 10 months to decide that General McChrystal needed the additional troops. Now he's sent the 30,000 troops and it already seems to have made a difference. Give him credit, though, for authorizing the additional predator drone strikes...he seems to have got that idea all by himself, proving that his IEP is working just fine.
Things will get worse before the ">Great Deliberator acts to make things better.

Joe Biden's Sin and Public Praying
You may have gathered I could be more religious. Nonetheless, I enjoyed going to the Ash Wednesday service at St. Luke's Catholic church. Being the wonderful person that I am, I had few sins to confess but deposited what few I had in a little fire where we burned them. It was a nice event, and uplifting to see all these people coming together for the 40 days of Lent.
I've always felt that the Catholic Church could have done more than look on as Hitler murdered six million Jews. But I was born to an Italian family and that usually means Catholic. Catholicism is an offshoot of Judaism, and I always felt like I might be comfortable with being Jewish. I like older religions and Judaism predates Christianity by thousands of years. On the other hand, I wouldn't want to go overboard on the "older religion" idea b/c that would mean I am pagan, and like the Romans would worship the usual household Gods. Truth to tell, I think there is an element of paganism in my Italian Catholic upbringing. You've seen the Godfather, haven't you?
What I wanted to talk about was Joe Biden's public posturing with the ashes on his forehead. Yeah, we know, Joe--you're Catholic too. But you must have calculated how beautiful it would look to the left-wing CNN reporters who photographed you standing behind Barack Obama. What a phony, Joe! Even in our ceremony, our local priest admonished against those like yourself who would advertise their phony piety in grand public appearances. Yet, there you were, with the ashes on your head, posing chastely for the cameras.
"Remember man, that thou are dust and unto dust thou shalt return."
Acknowledgement of guilt or of one's sins can lead to a better future so long as it is sincere. However, Mr. Biden seems unable to acknowledge guilt and now claims his administration had something to do with success in Iraq. No one has forgotten that Barack Obama and Joe Biden were the greatest cheerleaders for failure in Iraq.
Obama railed against the surge in too many speeches going back to 2004 when he used the issue to advance his career. Biden, the supposed foreign policy expert, wanted to create three Iraqs: A Shiite Iraq, a Sunni Iraq, and a Kurdish Iraq. I suppose that was so that he could appoint three more ambassadorships for his pals.
And now Biden stands with Catholic ashes on his head and claims that Bush's strategy of victory in Iraq was the Obama administration's "greatest achievement." Asshole blasphemer! Hypocrite! Phony! The Catholic churchs warns against people like you, Joe Biden!

"Family Guy" One Deluded MoFo
I'm neutral about Sarah Palin as a politician but I noticed that she and her family don't have the stink of slick Washington D.C. politicians on them. I like them and I think they're brave. But you'd have to be brain-dead not to come to their defense after that crummy, no-talent cartoon show writer Seith McFarlane of the so-called "Family Guy" hit out at Palin. Not just at Palin, the low-life bastard hit hard on the Palin's developmentally delayed son Trig. Wow, McFarlane has some kind of weird problem, I'd say.
Not only does McFarlane have to beat the woman down, he has to beat her kid down. I'll bet Seth McFarlane wouldn't try beating down Palin's husband, though, because punks don't pick on guys like Palin's husband. He'd probably have some dog-sled tracks imprinted on his face.... at the very least.
McFarlane calls himself an "equal opportunity offender." I"ll bet. Sure, he'll pinion Sasha and Melia in his next episode, just to tweak Michelle. They're not politicians so they're fair game in McFarlane's book. No, that wouldn't be according to type.
With a little luck, maybe "Family Guy" will go after Bill Clinton's daughter nextg. No, he's likely to get a much needed ass-whippin' there, too.
But the smear will have it venom-spewing defenders, like that woman from Entertainment Weekly who appeared on CNN. Even the guy on CNN was revolted by McFarlane's unfunny beat-down of a developmentally delayed kid or "a retard" if you're listening to Rahm Emmanual.

Obama Eschews Grandstanding?
Ironic that a guy who's made a whole life out of "grandstanding" now chides the GOP opposition to his one-party health care bill for wanting to start over.
Starting over would mean that some kind of tort reform gets passed. Add in the ability to buy health care across state borders and then maybe you have the beginning of a bi-partisan discussion.
Obama's too afraid of offending the "lawyer class" who have made tremendous strides in replacing the aristocracy we had in colonial times.
Conservative bloggers like Andrea Tantaros are saying that the Deceptocrats have laid a trap.

Counterterror Chief Takes Critics to Task - WSJ.com
Counterterror Chief Takes Critics to Task - WSJ.comIs Brennan a counter-terror "chief" or a counter-terror "shield"? Brennan's one reason Obama should crack down on marijuana abusers.
Abdulmutallab has only unbuttoned his lip because of the decency and good sense of his family members who requested help from intelligence services. Brennan’s brain is AWOL on this. He puffs a little legalese that “'in FBI custody' means that there's a process then you follow as far as Mirandizing and presenting him in front of a magistrate." Oooh! Maybe they’ll get President Obama’s Webeloes Badge. The AG should have put the terrorist into the hands of the proper intelligence services and provided him a one-way ticket to Guantanamo. In fact, the Obama administration sheltered Abdulmutallab from U.S. Intelligence chiefs.
All this mind-numbing Brennan chatter is groundwork for the administration’s “Let’s Make a Deal” program, soon to be announced. Humane treatment of prisoners is one thing. Imposed stupidity from on high is another.

Trial of Aafia Siddiqui is a look at things to come if Guantanamo Bay detainees have trial in NYC - NYPOST.com
Trial of Aafia Siddiqui is a look at things to come if Guantanamo Bay detainees have trial in NYC - NYPOST.comHere's a preview of what a New York Terror Trial for Khalid Sheikh Muhammad could look like....
The President should kick Eric Holder's ass and kick the trials back to Guantanamo--the perfect place for trials.

Terror trials could be headed back to Gitmo - NYPOST.comWell, here's a novel idea about deja vu all over again repeated several times redundant and tautololgical....
However, it's just possible that Eric Holder is feckless enough to persist in this futile and destructive endeavor. You have to appreciate the bureacratic layering of action triggers that lurk in the bureacratic mind.

Democrat Party Guide: How to Capture Bin Laden
Capturing Bin Laden should be easy now that he's weighed in on climate change. Morever, we now know why he's turned into a murderous, violent maniac. It's because he thinks we've raised the temperature on him. It's too hot in Quetta where he's hiding and he's not gonna' stand for a hotter planet. \
So here's what we do. First, we get Al Gore to call for another climate summit. Perhaps we can promise to show an Al Gore climate change special or maybe something from Current TV. We're told that Bin Laden loves Current TV--that's all he watches b/c climate change is such a popular topic there. We could even show a Michael Moore film. Tell him Nancy Pelosi will attend.
Then, when we've got him at the climate change coinference, bingo! We bag him! Maybe we can then negotiate some kind of deal with Bin Laden. Maybe say.... we turn over Gaza to him and promise to replace our motel bibles with the Koran.
It's a win-win situation. We catch Bin Laden and we finally resolve that pesky climate situation. Peace will reign in the world.

Chris Matthews Reminds Viewers Obama is Black!
It was only a moment, but for Chris Matthews, the moment was HUGE! For about an hour, said Matthews, he "forgot that Obama was black!" Wow, who knew? This means that in the twisted Matthews' mind, there was never a chance, until the State of the Union address, for the MSNBC host to think about anything else except that Obama was "black." What an epiphany!
But isn't that typical of a certain kind of liberal? You know the ones--always hurling the racist charge in the Republican direction just to get votes. Vote for Democrats--we're nice white liberals and we need your love as much as we need your vote. Remember that 60s song? "Love me, love me, love me...I'm a liberal."
Well at least the pressure's off Harry Reid. It was Harry who echoed the words of another great liberal, Joe Biden, in telling us that Obama was an intelligent and well-spoken "negroe."

Does Bernanke Confirmation Signal More of the Same?
http://www.bloggingstocks.com/2010/01/27/second-term-for-bernanke-writers-surveyed-back-fed-chief/The Senate voted to confirm Bernanke. I'd much rather fire Geithner for a lack of candor than get rid of Bernanke. However, both represent the failed bailout, devalued currency, and "stimulus" of the White HOuse. Click on the headline link and you'll get to an opinion piece I wrote which was recently published on AOL's "Daily Finance" online magazine.

About Face, Eric Holder!
Will President Obama and AG Holder ever emerge from their solipsistic Fantasyland? I doubt it, and if they could, it probably won't be before another terror attack. More and more congress members on both sides of the aisle are trying to stop the AG from transferring the Islamo-nazi war criminals to New York City for trial. Lieberman and Lindsay Graham and McCain have been highly vocal on the subject as are other congress members.
How can Obama and Holder be so small as to be unable to admit an error, especially in the interest of national security. It's not too late to reverse course and most of us would have a measure of respect and a great deal of gratitude in knowing these men do indeed live in the same world we live in...

Man Arrested After Weapons, Map of U.S. Military Facility Seized From N.J. Motel Room - Local News | News Articles | National News | US News - FOXNews.com
Man Arrested After Weapons, Map of U.S. Military Facility Seized From N.J. Motel Room - Local News | News Articles | National News | US News - FOXNews.comIt seems like the FBI is issuing their standard statement every time another terrorist gets arrested. This man is being held under weapons charges and the FBI is still investigating. But why put out the "information" that there are no terror linkis at present? Can't the FBI just say: "We don't know at this time." ????
So what we'd like to know, and which has not yet been addressed, is what military base is the one described in Woodson's maps. Also, where did he get the .50 calibre barrels to modify his rifles? What town was described by the other map? Why the jihadi headgear?
How did he get to New Jersey? Who owned whatever vehicle he was transported in? Why does he want to kill U.S. soldiers? Why can't he be called a terrorist suspect?
Eric Holder, who's side are you on?

Bi Partisan Terror Commission Gives Obama Low Marks -- No B-Plus Here
Colonel Randall Larsen wasn't giving me exactly good news in pointing to the Obama Team's weakness in responding to potential terror attacks. What's to be expected of a White House that grants Miranda rights to enemy combatants an hour after they're captured. It's almost as if they don't want to know. They don't, but I do.
Suppose there's an anthrax attack. Would it take as long for the Obama administration to provide antidone medications as it did to get us some H1N1 vaccines? Duh!
Speaking of anthrax attacks, it's still not been determined if the man the FBI says was responsible had help. There's plenty of indication that he did have accomplices--assuming he's guilty--which is more difficult to prove now that he commmitted suicide. Was it suicide? I suppose so, but with the way the Holder Justic Department operates, it's hard to trust anything they tell us...
Big credibility problem...

Bernanke Fed's Cheap Money Policy Should Follow Him Out the Door
The Wall Street Journal had it right in an editorial of 01/25/10 even if the Senate gets it wrong and confirms Federal Reserve Chairman Bernanke for a second term. Ben Bernanke’s chief sin is that he put himself in wing formation with pilots of the doomed aircraft which favored cheap and easy money, zero interest rates, backdoor bailouts, and a huge transfer of public money from Main Street to Wall Street.
The Wall Street Journal correctly points out that it opposed a second Bernanke appointment back in December 2009 when a second term was considered automatic for Bernanke. At that time, Bernanke’s popularity was such that he was believed capable of walking on water, the man who saved the country from what liberals fondly call “the abyss.”
Unfortunately, it is very difficult to convince the millions of people who are unemployed that they haven’t been pushed into the "abyss. What little money they do have doesn’t buy much. Bernanke and cohorts point to a lower rate of inflation as justification for keeping interest rates low, cheapening the dollar. Even while living in an “abyss” however, it is easy to comprehend that a loaf of bread which used to cost $1.00 per loaf now costs $3.50 per loaf. Automobiles that used to cost $3,000 or $5,000 in the seventies now cost $23,000 for the stripped down economy model. That’s the effect of cheap money, and those are the conditions under which the unemployed are living in their economy which “saved or created” 640,000 jobs.
When liberal bloggers speak about how the White HOuse economic team saved the world economy from the "abyss," you should recognize that they are referring to saving AIG, Goldman Sachs, and other major financial giants from "the Abyss."
All Bernanke and others managed to do is shift public monies to Wall Street.

Harry Reid Sound Bites Obama
So now we learn from Democratic Senator Majority leader that Barack Obama doesn’t speak with a “negro dialect” unless he wants to. But didn’t VP Joe Biden already tell us that the President was “clean,” articulate and educated? Who knew?
There’s some good could come of this in that Democrats should honestly acknowledge that they engage in race-baiting particularly at election time when they depict themselves the champions of ethnic minorities and their Republican opponents as closet racists. If any party has kept its ignorant cultural biases hidden, it’s the image conscious Democrats who cannot be honest about their bigotry and must project it onto others in order to expiate it.
But Harry apologized so it doesn't matter...

Ahmadinajad's Tehran Government Doesn't Appreciate John Kerry
You'd think the illegal government in Tehran would appreciate John Kerry's request for permission to enter the country, especially when there are so many common points of agreement. Senator Kerry has given silent encouragement to the Iranian Secret Police as they shoot down protestors in the street. Kerry wants to smooth over any ruffles created by the Obama administration in threatening sanctions as the Islamoi-fascists race to develop a nuclear bomb. Kerry frets publicly that sanctions would only create anxiety for the regime.
"You can't levy sanctions on a country that worries for its future," Kerry believes.
And so Kerry wants to assure the Iranians that his objectives and theirs are entirely congruent, and that they can work together to further embarrass the United States.
What were the Iranians thinking, though, in rejecting Kerry's request for a visa? Are they so enamored of President Obama that they are emulating him in trying to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory? Aren't they aware that Kerry is a more effective weapon against Israel than any in the boatload of terror weapons they send in boats to the Middle East?

Clues for the Obama Anti-terror Airport Security Team
Aways willing to help the Obama administration in its fight against "Overseas Contingency Operations," I'm now working for free to provide a profile of people likely to attack school buses, airlines, and nursery schools.
Here are five helpful hints which tell how a terrorist might look like and behave:
1) A terrorist will not present terrorist credentials stamped from Al Qaeda.
2) A terrorist might buy a one-way ticket in 3,000 dollars cash and have no luggage.
3) Terrorists may have dirty underwear.
4) A terrorist may be on the list reported to Nigerian and U.S. authorities by the terrorist's father and mother. Disclaimer: This rule applies as well to countries other than Nigeria.
5) A terrorist might trace his origins to Guantanamo Prison where he has been fed and housed and "rehabilitated" before being released to fill vacant Al Qaeda leadership positions.
Be sure to stay tuned for more helpful hints. Copies provided for free to State Department Officials, to Janet Napolitano, and Obama Counterterrorism Chief John Brennan.

Pressure Mounting to Keep Guantanamo Open
I have a great idea which will solve the Obama administration's problem with housing enemy combatants without risking additional problems for America. Why don't we build a special prison in a special place---the U.S. Naval Base at Guantanamo, for example-- and we can make it a thoroughly modern and secure facility, the envy of all the world?
What? What? You mean there already is the perfect place for Khalid Sheikh Mohammad and people like Christmas Bomber Abdul Mutallab?
Well then why?...why?....why then are we?....
