The left’s Astroturf
Filed under: Culture of Corruption, Free Speech, Politics, Tea Party
Far hard left extremist democrats like Nancy Pelosi and Barbra Boxer are accusing the American Citizens who are questioning our Dear Leader‘s plan for socializing our medical system of being organized “Astroturf” instead of being the legitimate grassroots movement it is. This is hardly surprising, since it’s the only way they can get people to “protests” who support their platform.
Let’s review the facts of the matter. Take a look at the folks who show up to oppose socializing our medical system. They are dressed like ordinary people, they are carrying homemade signs, and they probably took time off from work, i.e. not getting paid, in order to ask simple questions of their elected representatives.
Now compare these to the so-called “protesters” who show up to support the left’s march to Socialism. Denver photojournalist El Marco points out that those “protesters” “had to be coached by professional organizers — including several day laborers who didn’t speak English and couldn’t tell what the signs they were holding read.”
How did the left get those “protesters?” It’s simple, they paid them. Really. Check out these ads on Craigs List. In addition to the paid “protesters”, the left brought out their ACORN aggitators and Union thugs. The staffers running democrat “town hall” meetings are denying access to taxpaying citizens while flooding the room with their ringers. If voting tax payers do manage to get in, they are then physically attacked by leftist Union thugs and professional aggitators.
Of course, the usual suspects are ignoring the truth and simple facts and spreading lies.
Update: George Soros pours another $5 Million into leftist Astroturn.
GUILTY! GUILTY! GUILTY!
Excuse me, channeling Gary Trudeu there for a minute.
I’m better now.
You remember former democrat Congressman William “Cold Cash” Jefferson, who was voted out of office while fighting the charges that he took $100,000 in cash bribes.
The Justice Department’s case against him included the person who gave him the $100,000 in cash testifing that it was for a bribe and then finding $90,000 hidden in frozen food boxes in Jefferson’s home freezer.
Of course William “Cold Cash” Jefferson was defended as “innocent” by the democrat s0-called “leadership” including Nancy Pelosi.
Well, Congression Jefferson has had his day in court and “federal jury convicted a former U.S. congressman Wednesday of taking bribes on 11 of 16 counts in a case in which agents found $90,000 in his freezer.”
Former Rep. William Jefferson, a Democrat who had represented parts of New Orleans, was accused of accepting more than $400,000 in bribes and seeking millions more in exchange for brokering business deals in Africa.
It took jurors five days to reach a decision after an eight-week trial.
Obama continues to break Transparency Promise
Filed under: Culture of Corruption, Our Dear Leader, Politics
Our Dear Leader promised to increase goverment transparency under his administration. That was clearly another lie told to dupe the sheepeople into voting for him.
The latest example is the BHO regime denying access to the actual numbers for it’s faux-Green “Cash for Clunkers” program.
What is our Dear Leader and his socalist cronies hiding from the American People? Shouldn’t he be proud of what he is trying to do to America and shout his intentions from the proverable rooftops instead of trying to ram his policies through Congress quickly and often under the cover of darkness?
Palin Bullies: Exposed And Whining

Here is the video that the left doesn’t want you to see.
I’m not kidding. They are attacking Bob Parks and working hard to pull this video off YouTube whenever it goes up.
The left is flat out afraid of the truth and doesn’t want the American People to be exposed to the truth.

The era of hope and change is dead….and it only took six months in office to kill it.
Michelle Malkin details the sordid level of corruption in the Obama White House that the DNC/MSM turns a blind eye to.
Interesting facts about ObamaCare
Filed under: Culture of Corruption, Our Dear Leader, Politics
RWS has a list of actual items from our Dear Leader‘s so-called “Health Care” bill that he probably doesn’t want the majority of the American People to know about until it is too late. Here are some of the worst ones.
Pg 22 of the Health Care Bill MANDATES the Govt will audit books of ALL EMPLOYERS that self-insure.
Pg 30 Sec 123- THERE WILL BE A GOVT COMMITTEE that decides what treatments/benefits you get.
Pg 42 – The “Health Choices Commissioner” will choose your Heathcare Benefits for you. You have no choice.
PG 50 Section 152- Heathcare will be provided to ALL non-US citizens, illegal or otherwise.
Pg 53- Severability (KEY GEM)
“If any provision of the Act, or any application of such provision to any person or circumstance, is held to be unconstitutional, the remainder of the provisions of this Act and the application of the provision to any other person or circumstance shall not be affected.”
Pg 58 – Govt will have real-time access to individual’s finances & a National ID Healthcard will be issued.
Pg 59 lines 21-24- Govt will have direct access to your bank accounts for electronic funds transfer.
pg 124 lines 24-25 No company can sue GOVT on price fixing. No “judicial review” against Govt Monopoly.
pg 127 Lines 1-16- RE: Doctors- The Govt will tell YOU what you can make.
Pg 145 Line 15-17 An Employer MUST auto-enroll employees into public option plan. NO CHOICE
Pg 126 Lines 22-25 Employers MUST pay for Healthcare for part time employees AND their families.
Pg 149 Lines 16-24 ANY Employer with payroll $400k & above who doesn’t provide public option pays 8% tax on all payroll.
PG 150 Lines 9-13- Businesses with payroll between 251k & 400k who doesn’t provide public option pays 2-6% tax on all payroll
Pg 167 Lines 18-23 ANY individual who doesn’t have acceptable Healthcare according to Govt will be taxed 2.5% of income.
Pg 170 Lines 1-3 Any NONRESIDENT Alien is EXEMPT from individual taxes. (Americans will pay)
Pg 195 -Officers & employees of Heathcare Admin (GOVT) will have access to ALL Americans financial/personal records.
PG 203 Line 14-15- “The tax imposed under this section shall not be treated as tax.” Yes, it actually says that.
425 the Federal Government will require EVERYONE who is on Social Security to undergo a counseling session every 5 years with “end of life counseling.”
Pg 425 Lines 17-19: Govt will instruct & consult regarding living wills, durable powers of attorney. Mandatory!
This bill seems to have less to do with “Health Care” than it does with getting a pipeline directly into the bank accounts of American Citizens.
The left’s attack on basic Civil Rights
The right to Legal Council and the Right to Self-Defense are basic Civil Rights. To deny any American citizen those basic Civil Rights is an attack on the Constitution and the founding principle of the United States of America.
Color me not surprised that far left extremists are doing just that. James Taranto takes a look at the latest attack on retiring Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. Gov. Palin has been subject to numerous “ethics charges”, which require her and the state of Alaska to expend funds to defend against. Fifteen of those charges have been dismissed. As in charges brought against her had absolutely no merit. The charges of “ethics violations” have been a clear and simple case of harassment by her political enemies.
Like many politicians before her, including Bill and Hillary Clinton, Gov. Palin set up a legal defense fund. The purpose of the legal defense fund was to obtain legal council in order to defend herself from these frivolous and harassing “ethics violations” charges. In order words, Gov. Palin was exercising her basic Civil Rights as an American Citizen.
Mr. Taranto notes that the latest “ethics violations” charge is that is Gov. Palin’s exercising her basic Civil Rights.
That’s right. The “personal gain” that is being objected to, is defending herself against the previous “ethical violations” that have been dismissed as having no merit.
This is the ugly truth of the far left. If they target you, an American Citizen, as an enemy, you have no Civil Rights as far as they are concerned. You have no right to self-defense, you have no right to a fair and impartial trial by jury, you are guilty of “thought crime” and need to be destroyed.
Where are these frivolous and harassing attacks against Gov. Palin coming from? Well, in the words of the man who wrote the screenplay, “Follow the Money.”
House democrats don’t want the American People to know what they are doing.
Ed Morrissey has the story on how the House democrats blocked the House Republican’s attempt to show the American People the truth about the so-called “Health Care” scam the democrats and our Dear Leader are trying to ram down the throats of the American People before they can see what effect it will have on them.
Why are the democrats afraid of the American People knowing the truth? What are they trying to hide?
“Hiding the truth about wildly unpopular policies is a Democrat specialty,” said one GOP aide. “I’d like to see the flow chart on how Speaker [Nancy] Pelosi plans on implementing the open and transparent government she keeps promising everyone.”
Indeed.
Obama’s broken promise on Transparency
Filed under: Culture of Corruption, Our Dear Leader, Politics
Remember the left going completely and utterly batshit over the “closed meetings” VP Cheney had on energy policy? Remember how Candidate Obama was going to have his Presidency be “transparent”, so such evil would not occur again? Well, that was just a line of bullshit he feed the gullible, and useful, idiots who voted for him. I found this illustrative bit of information on tumblr that shows use how in some ways our Dear Leader is just G.W. Bush on steroids:
CheneyObama refuses to release visitor logs showing whichenergyhealth care company executives visited the White House.Late Update: It’s an especially painful continuation of Bush policies since candidate Obama promised to let CSPAN in to cover the creation of a health care bill and his campaign website still promises transparency in meetings between White House staff and outside interests.
That’s right suckers, you got bamboozled! Obamaboozled to be precise and it’s not the first time, and it’s not not going to be the last. I wonder how many lefty moonbats are aware that our Dear Leader‘s “Science Czar” is against a “woman’s right to choose”?
Update on Obama’s War on Inspector Generals
Filed under: Culture of Corruption, Our Dear Leader, Politics
As I’ve wrote about before, Our Dear Leader has a disturbing pattern of firing Inspector Generals, the people who are charged with uncovering corruption and waste of tax payer money.
Byron York reports that Gerald Walpin, the AmeriCorps inspector general who dared to uncover corruption by Obama political appointees and friends of Empress Michelle, is suing the federal government for an “unlawful” firing.
The Obama administration’s case was incredibly feeble and libelous to begin with. This will be an interesting case to watch.
