In yet another example

of ”What Liberal Media?”, the Editor of the Seattle Times lashes out in defense of Obama.

See, President Bush gave a speech the other day while he was in the Middle East, and he pointed out the inherent idiocy of attempting to appease despots and maniacs. The Media instantly sprang to the attack, with the local NBC affiliate accusing the President of (snort, guffaw) “playing politics”. (First, what is the titular leader of his political party going to be doing for his day-to-day job besides doing political things? And second, what is Obama doing, playing a nice game of tiddly-winks?)

But this moron takes the idiocy to news heights: ”Hitler’s Demands Weren’t Unreasonable”.

Of course, he has since “amended” his statements, trying to keep people from “misinterpreting” him.

As though that statement needed any parsing.

Straight to the Slammer

Eww!

This guy wouldn’t be around to face a trial, because I would have enjoyed taking his last breath if he did this to me.

An HIV-positive man convicted of spitting into the eye and mouth of a Dallas police officer has been sentenced to 35 years in prison.

Because a jury found that Willie Campbell used his saliva as a deadly weapon, the 42-year-old will have to serve half his sentence before becoming eligible for parole. He was sentenced Wednesday.

Campbell was being arrested in May 2006 for public intoxication when he began resisting and kicking inside the patrol car, Dallas police office Dan Waller testified.

Campbell was convicted of harassment of a public servant.

We have to deal with enough bad stuff on a daily basis. Dodging bullets and drop-kicking guys with knives is bad enough, but the last thing I want to do is worry about some jerk with HIV/AIDS giving me his filthy disease just because he wants to spit on me. I hope this guys enjoys spending the rest of his natural life in prison.

Al Sharpton: Civil Unrest Is Great!

This guy is an idiot.

One of America’s favorite dumbasses is at it again, this time because a black guy was acting suspicious and got shot by cops who were doing their job. To make his point, he wants blacks in New York to tear-up the city and make it look like Los Angeles during the Rodney King riots. Proof:

Hundreds of angry people marched through Harlem on Saturday after the Rev. Al Sharpton promised to “close this city down” to protest the acquittals of three police detectives in the 50-shot barrage that killed a groom on his wedding day and wounded two friends.

“We strategically know how to stop the city so people stand still and realize that you do not have the right to shoot down unarmed, innocent civilians,” Sharpton told an overflow crowd of several hundred people at his National Action Network office in the historically black Manhattan neighborhood. “This city is going to deal with the blood of Sean Bell.”

Sharpton was joined by the family of 23-year-old Sean Bell - a black man - and a friend of Bell who was wounded in the 2006 shooting outside a Queens strip club. Two of the three officers charged were also black.

The rally at Sharpton’s office was followed by a 20-block march down Malcolm X Boulevard and then across 125th Street, Harlem’s main business thoroughfare, where some bystanders yelled out “Kill the police!”

Fifty of the marchers carried white placards bearing big black numbers for each of the police bullets fired at Bell and his friends.

Sharpton urged people to return for a meeting this coming week “to plan the day that we will close this city down” with the kind of “massive civil disobedience” once led by Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

“They never accused Sean Bell of doing anything. Then why is he dead?” Sharpton asked, his voice roaring with anger. Authorities “have shown now that they will not hold police accountable. Well, guess what? If you won’t, we will!”

Nothing says quality leadership in the black community like a good-for-nothing “reverend” calling for a full-blown riot to burn down the city.

Obama’s “former” pastor

Says hate-filled statements were “taken out of context”.

Yeah, because I can understand how his assertions that the US Government is responsible for loosing the AIDS virus on Black People could be made better if put in context. And that “chickens coming home to roost” sermon the Sunday following the 9/11 attacks? I’d love to know what kind of context this would need to be less “I Hate America"-fied…

Most enjoyable is the statement where Wright admits that Obamalama is “a politician”, saying what he “needs to say” (wink, wink, nudge, nudge, saynomore), while he says “things of God”. (Funny, I don’t remember AIDS appearing in the Bible anywhere, no matter which version I check. Maybe he’s using Nancy Pelosi’s favorite version.)

Jimmy Carter isn’t a moron

He is specifically and deliberately anti-American.

I mean, if he were merely stupid and struck by early onset dementia, he would be right at least every once in a while, much like the blind squirrel finding the rare acorn.

But he has not been right since he echoed, “I do solemnly swear...” on January 20, 1977.

It was on his watch that bank interest rates hit 25% and more.

It was on his watch that he declared that we would have to learn to live with Communism.

It was on his watch that Soviet Russia invaded Afghanistan (looking for a way to control the Persian Gulf).

It was on his watch that we lost the only American soil to hostile forces since the War of 1812, and our citizens were paraded on the evening news every night for more than a year, only released when he was drummed out of office.

Due to his influence, Democrats have only held the White House for two of the seven terms since he was replaced.

He has sucked up to despots (Hugo Chavez and Castro), anti-American groups (terrorists and terror-supporters around the globe), and specifically kissing the boots of hostile powers with whom we are - or might soon be - in a shooting war (North Korea and Hamas).

He has consistently demeaned and denigrated a close political and cultural ally of the United States, in defiance of clearly stated foreign policies that have not changed since he left office, and in direct defiance of Federal Law, ignoring the clear disapproval of the legitimately elected governments of both nations.

I do not question his patriotism, because one cannot question what does not exist. He is not a doddering old fool, he is deliberately acting against American interests, and I call for his indictment and prosecution under the Logan Act. Or at the very least a NBR (non binding resolution) stating that the House/Senate specifically repudiates any positions advocated by this doddering old fool.

I’d go so far as to pull his Secret Service detail, since those are paid out of taxpayer funds…

By The Company You Keep

Y’know, we haven’t yet spoken of the really important political endorsements this silly political nomination season - those of the world’s terrorist organizations.

In ‘04, John Kerry was the “allegedly unhappy” recipient of that nomination, because of his willingness to work with the UN.

But who wins the coveted nod this year?

None other than His Homliness, the Dope. Barack Hussein Mohammed Hussein Obama. (Just to piss him off in case he stops by.)

I’m not kidding.

Hamas, Fidel Castro, FARC, The New Black Panthers, William Ayers (of the Weather Underground), Daniel Ortega, Hugo Chavez, “Hanoi” Jane Fonda, DailyKos, Democratic Underground, Jeremiah “God Damn America” Wright and almost the entire MSM establishment…

Throw in his willingness to raise taxes even higher than they are ("what do you mean ‘cut spending’? You’re nucking futs!"), and no wonder the far Left is pushing for him. I mean when you have people calling Hillary Clinton a neocon, you know that they are far to the Left of anything mainstream…

The Los Angeles Global Warming Tax

You suck, liberals.

Some jerk named Mike Feuer wants to tax the crap out of you for driving. The OC Register rips him a new bunghole, and rightfully so.

To fight global warming, a bill in Sacramento would enable Los Angeles County transit officials to increase taxes on motorists. It’s a bad idea that may foreshadow even worse to come.

LA Story, Part 2,561

This guy got off easy.

This is what happens when a South Central Shitbag decides to mess with an off-duty deputy.

An off-duty Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputy shot and wounded a man who confronted him with a knife today alongside the eastbound Glenn Anderson (105) Freeway near Hawthorne, officials said.

The shooting occurred near Crenshaw Boulevard about 8 a.m., said Deputy Oscar Butao of the Sheriff’s Headquarters Bureau.

Paramedics took the wounded man, a 19-year-old from Inglewood whose name was withheld, to a hospital where he was said to have stable vital signs, county fire Inspector Darryl Jacobs said.

Eastbound lanes were closed at Crenshaw Boulevard to accommodate the investigation until shortly before 1 p.m.

The deputy is a nine-year veteran assigned to the sheriff’s Lennox Station as a training officer, according to broadcast reports. He worked overnight and had just left the station when the confrontation occurred, according to broadcast reports.

The deputy, whose name was withheld, was driving his personal car, which was nearly struck by yellow Honda Prelude, deputies said.

The deputy pulled over to check his car, sheriff’s Sgt. John Hocking said.

“As he did that, the suspect pulled off also, parking in front of the deputy’s vehicle, and the suspect got out of his vehicle, pulled a knife out of his waistband and attempted to assault the deputy,” Hocking says.

“The deputy told the suspect to step back, that he was a deputy sheriff,” Hocking said. “The suspect did not, and at that point the deputy was forced to fire his on-duty weapon at the suspect, striking the suspect.”

As I said, this guy got off easy. He could have easily been capped and filled with more holes than swiss cheese, but the deputy let him off easy with just a few wounds. Let this be a lesson to the rest of the dumbasses in South Central.

So I hear that Dick Cheney is in the Mideast

He’s trying (like all American politicians since the early 70s) to help broker a lasting peace in the region.

As far as I can understand the current problem, the two sides can’t come to any kind of agreement.

Palestinians: “Open the borders and provide economic aid to the Gaza Strip!”

Israel: “Gladly. Just stop with the rocket and mortar attacks.”

Palestinians: “No deal.”

ohh

WTF is wrong with these asshats? All they have to do is stop killing people and they can have almost everything they want. But they would rather live in poverty and degradation, reviled by their Arab brethren, for entire generations, voting to actually elect the people that are carrying out the killings into power. That’s like the ghetto-ized regions of South Central L.A. actually voting in the Bloods and the Crips, and then wondering why no one wants to help them out. It never even crossed their minds to ask why Yassir “Thatsmybaby” Arafat was worth more than a billion - that’s Billion, with a ‘B’ - dollars when he died, or why his wife was getting more than $100K per month from the Palestinian Agency, while countless multitudes lived in the most abject of poverty, blaming the Jooooos for being oppressed.

Fuck them. They deserve a State like Ron Paul deserves to be President. As Golda Meir said, “When the Palestinians love their children more than they hate the Jews, then we will have peace.”

One more applicable quote: “War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen, and I say let us give them all they want.”—General William Tecumseh Sherman

On another topic, I’m still fighting with the computer, but it seems to be working more ‘on’ than ‘off’ today.

Not just a scumbag, but a RACIST scumbag, to boot

There was this guy, see? He started attending this church where the preacher routinely uttered the most racist, hate-filled spewing imaginable, up to and including the phrase ”God damn America” shouted from the pulpit, to general applause and shouts of agreement from the congregation.

He keeps attending this church for TWENTY YEARS, having the pastor perform the marriage ceremony for he and his bride, baptize his children, and serve as an inspiration for the titles of both of the two books this man ever published.

Now, this man is running for President, see? And people around the country are starting to pay attention to some of the things that his preacher has been saying, seeing as how the preacher is this candidate’s “spiritual adviser”, and this man has had to say things like “I profoundly disagree with some of these {preacher’s} statements.”

But yet the man - who shall remain nameless, but his initials are “B. Hussein O.” - not only keeps attending this preacher’s church, and listening to the hate-filled rhetoric from the pulpit, but actually appoints him to a position in one of his campaign’s national-level advisory committees. (Just as an aside, I wonder what would be made of a Caucasian candidate whose “Religious Leadership Committee” was deliberately - with planning and intention - made up of nothing but white people?)

CHARLESTON, S.C. –U.S. Sen. Barack Obama’s campaign today unveiled its African American Religious Leadership Committee at both the national and statewide levels. Together, they represent two groups of key national and South Carolina religious leaders who are supporting Obama’s bid for the Democratic nomination.

These groups are truly without equal and reflect the belief among clergy that Obama has dedicated his public life to living the values of his faith outside of his house of worship.

***

Rev. Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright, Jr.*
Senior Pastor
Trinity United Church of Christ
Chicago, IL
Senator Barack Obama’s Pastor

That asterisk is explained at the bottom of that page as ”*Endorsements from religious leaders are extended in their personal capacity, and not on behalf of any house of worship, organization or denomination.”, yet the only one of those “key national ... religious leaders” to have such an exception is the Good Reverend Jeremiah “God Damn America” Wright, his own preacher.

I wonder why that is…

Yet his entire defense against sitting there passively, week after week, year after year, from when he was just a punk kid fresh from law school and thinking about running for office, to his election as a State Senator (with the active endorsement of his church), to his election against a badly-scandalized incumbent Senator (with the active endorsement of his church), to his current attempt to win the nomination from his party as candidate for the World’s Most Powerful Politician (with the active ... ah, you know the drill), is to say, “Of course there are some things that I disagree with” and imply that the Good Reverend might be losing his marbles.

O RLY?

Pray tell, which “things” said by this reverend do you have a problem with, and which parts are a-okay in your book? Do you agree with the statement that “no black woman can ever be considered for anything outside what she can give with her body”, and does that apply to your $350K/yr lawyer wife (who also attends this church)? Or Secretary of State Condi Rice? Or Oprah Winfrey? Or Halle Berry? Or…

Isn’t it nice that we have this nice long nomination process so that these things can come out after the nomination is almost locked in?

Once a scumbag, always a scumbag

What would you think about a Senator who managed to pull down a million-dollar taxpayer-funded “earmark” to the business where his wife was the VP for Community Relations, and whose salary jumped from $121,910 in 2004, just before her husband was elected to the Senate, to $316,962 in 2005 - an increase of almost 160%?

You’d be wondering when he would be arrested for corruption, wouldn’t you?

Wouldn’t you?

Well, apparently, a whole bunch of people have been voting for him to become our next President, instead…

hmmm

This boy is gonna be TOAST in the general election.

Neville Longbottom couldn’t have done it better

With a ’Riddikulus‘ charm

B. Hussein really wants Change. Lots and LOTS of change. In fact, he wants to add $1.4 trillion - that’s Trillion-with-a-T - in new spending programs if he becomes President.

However, when push-comes-to-shove and it comes to actually going on the record, even Messiah O’Changitude doesn’t want to actually have to vote for such Changeyness. And neither do the rest of them...

Republican Sen. Wayne Allard of Colorado made Democrats put their votes where their likely nominee’s rhetoric is.

Allard sponsored an amendment to the budget that included everyone of the $1.4 trillion in new spending — $1,400,000,000,000 — $1.4 million million — over five years that Obama has proposed on the campaign trail.

The Senate shot it down, 97-0.

Even Sen. Obama voted against President Obama.

Maybe he should suggest ratifying the Kyoto Protocols while he’s at it. That one only went down 95-0… tongue rolleye

How DARE they

Via the Right Wing Wackos, I hear about a case of a Federal Marshal attempting to threaten an American citizen - who has committed no crime - into silence, just to prevent a Federal Agency from having its oppressive tactics exposed to the public.

How fucking DARE they.

mad 

This is the kind of shit I mean about a Second American Revolution happening by 2025.

It’s been too gottdamned long since the Government has feared the people, and I dread what kind of igniting event - a “Shot Heard ‘Round The World”, IYKWIM - it will take to call the people to rise up on their feet and make their voices heard. Because it’s going to set off a chain reaction throughout Europe, just like it did the last time. (cv French Revolution, spread of democracy, etc.)

And possibly even farther. (U.S. off of Mars!)

When the people fear the government, you have tyranny. When the government fears the people, you have freedom.—Thomas Paine

As was pointed out in the comments in that thread, “Doesn’t like us using the First Amendment to protect the Second, does he? I bet he’d be really unhappy if we did it the other way around.”

Damned skippy. angry

Now where did I put my copy of “The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress”?

Update: I wonder if he was threatening people all on his own or whether someone put him up to it…

Conspiracy against Rights.

If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten, or intimidate any person in any State, Territory, Commonwealth, Possession, or District in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States, or because of his having so exercised the same; or
If two or more persons go in disguise on the highway, or on the premises of another, with intent to prevent or hinder his free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege so secured—
They shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and if death results from the acts committed in violation of this section or if such acts include kidnapping or an attempt to kidnap, aggravated sexual abuse or an attempt to commit aggravated sexual abuse, or an attempt to kill, they shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for any term of years or for life, or both, or may be sentenced to death.

Horse before the cart

Apparently, the explosion at the NYC Times Square’s military recruiting center (the largest in the country, AFAIK), and the letter sent to dozens of Congressional Representatives bearing the header “We Did It!” (containing a lengthy diatribe against the Iraq War and supporting other leftist causes, along with a picture of a man standing in front of that very same recruiting center with his arms spread wide) have nothing to do with each other, and are ”an incredibly unbelievable coincidence”.

Unbelievable, indeed.  hmmm

Apparently they are claiming the “We Did It!” refers to the Democrats winning control of Congress, and the rants against the war were just rhetoric, since there “was no threat issued”.  tongue rolleye

Guess we should feel happy that the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon had nothing to do with each other, either, since no one had bothered to write a letter explaining exactly what they were going to do that day. No threat == no conspiracy == no ties to terrorism.

*cough*

Now where did I put those blinders again? cool cheese

UPDATE: Michelle Malkin has put together a LOOOOoooong list of escalating attacks against the military and recruiters, and yet officialdom has apparently decided that this latest attack is just a “coincidence”.
