The BS Removal Kit
Ya, they are out to make a buck, but somebody has to get the economy moving.
The democrat’s Culture of Corruption marches on
This time it’s democrat Congressman Greg Meeks of New York.
Queens Rep. Gregory Meeks finally fessed up Friday night about why he decided to wait three years to pay back a $40,000 secret loan.
…
The Queens Democrat had been refusing to explain why he made no payments on the loan from Ahmad, a local businessman, until the FBI showed up.
…
He also did not disclose the loan on House documents in 2007 and 2008, as required.
Remember kids, democrat Speaker of the House “San Fran Nan” Pelosi said she would run the most ethical congress, evah!
Two opposing views
Compare and contrast. First Mort Zuckerman points out that our Dear Leader is is “anti-business.”
Of course, the talking heads at MSNBC, Mika Brzezinski and John Heilmann, were shocked by this. They certainly haven’t gotten that message from the instructions they get sent directly to their Crackberrys by the Obama White House.
Let us review the facts of the situation, after a year and half of our Dear Leader and the democrats controlling both both houses of Congress.
- The Stock Market can’t get a decent rally going and the Dow is still mired at the 10K mark.
- Unemployment remains at unprecedented levels. Real unemployment is well over 10%, probably closer to 15%. Is it in spite of the democrat’s massive so-called “stimulus” plans or because of them?
- The housing market is still in shambles, and no reform of Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae in sight.
The facts of the matter are clearly obvious, as well as the sad truth that the MSNBC talking heads have to toe the Obama regime party line in order to keep their jobs.

VP Joe Biden visits a flyover state and gets a request from an American Citizen
Small business owner in Wisconsin tells VP Joe Biden to “Lower our taxes.”
Biden ignores the peasant and his quaint ideas.
A spokesman for the GOP responded to the VP’s visit:
“Vice President Biden probably decided not to take questions today because he didn’t want to fess up as to why Wisconsin has lost over 73,000 jobs since the stimulus was enacted.”
Why are liberals so bad at history?
Current case in point, Elena Kagan, whom our Dear leader wants to put on the Supreme Court. In digging through what little paper trail she has generated, National Review has discovered that Ms. Kagan has compared the NRA to the KKK.
Let us review the basic history here, which Ms. Kagan is clearly unware of.
The National Rifle Association was formed after the Civil War by former Union Army officers to promote marksmanship.
The KKK was formed after the Civil War by former Confederate Army personnel to express their displeasure at people they still considered property conducting themselves as free citizens of the Republic.
One way the KKK expressed their displeasure was by murdering these new citizens of the Repubic.
Their victims reacted in a logical manner in a free society, they exercised their Constitutional protected rights to Keep and Bear Arms and defended themselves against the murderous thugs of the KKK. The KKK didn’t like their victims to be able to shoot back, so they contacted their friends in the state legislatures to pass the very first “gun control” laws in the United States of America.
That’s right folks, the first so-called “gun control” laws were passed to protect the members of the KKK from the newly freed slaves they wanted to murder. The history of one of the left’s major policies, so-called “gun control” laws, is the history of violent racism in the United States.
So, either Ms. Kagan is woefully ignorant of American History, or she is deliberately ignoring the facts in order to promote a political agenda that runs counter to the Constitution of the United States of America. Either one is not a good sign in a potential member of the Supreme Court.
The New Face of the democrat party
Alvin Greene

Stewart really summed it up:
This is the Republicans’ fault? Really? Even if they fronted the patsy, y’all voted for him. They didn’t trick you. They didn’t enter a guy with a misleading name like Grit Gravy Biscuit or Nascar Johnson or Robert E. Leebowitz. It was Greene, Greene versus Rawl and 100,000 Democrats walked into a polling place and said, “I don’t know either of these guys. I guess I’m ill-informed and I could easily not vote but fuck it, I like the color green more than the color rawl.”
Did the Republicans spend a lot of money on ads for Alvin Greene? No. Did they spend any money on ads for Alvin Greene? No. Did they ask Alvin Greene to leave his father’s basement once during the campaign? No. This is a prank? No. This is the political equivalent of running yourself a warm bath, falling asleep next to it with your hand in the tub, wetting yourself, and then blaming the Republicans.
Note who is upset over Greene winning, the democrat party leadership in South Carolina. Greene, who is clearly the anti-incumbent candidate, won by a wide margin. Maybe it’s South Carolina democrat party leadership who should be paying attention to this “teachable moment.”
Update: Ann Coulter discusses Greene’s qualifications.
democrat Congressman reminds us of how he views the common rabble…
He obviously has a low view of serfs daring to ask him questions. He forgets that here in America, the “serfs” are free citizens, and he bloody well is answerable to them. Hopefully, November will bring some change to North Carolina and this clown will be looking for a new job.
Pointing out leftist hypocrisy
Two conservative women point out the hypocrisy of the sexist liberal bed wetters over at Newsweek.
Lori Ziganto is first, with this delicious bit of snark,
They don’t comprehend that as strong and confident conservative women, lacking an ounce of our liberal counterparts’ perpetual victim hood, we embrace all aspects of our gender. As such, we have no problem looking pretty whilst vivisecting you verbally in an argument. We aren’t simpletons; we can multi-task! And we know that if one appreciates how you look, it doesn’t preclude them from also appreciating your mind and your political discourse. Well, at least it shouldn’t. Evidently, that isn’t possible on the left.
Competence was never Barry’s strong point
Some people are starting to notice that our Dear Leader isn’t really living up to their expectations of a mildly competent President.
Let’s get serious people! It has been plain from the beginning that his actual “leadership” experience was limited to a brief stint as a Cub Scout.
The American voters who bothered to go to the polls back in November 2008 elected a man who has never held a private sector job in his life!
He was very good at making promises during the campaign, but not so good at actually keeping them once elected. Foreign leaders are also not taking Barry very seriously either. Competence was not what our Dear Leader ran on. It was pure charisma and hatred against his opponents, including fellow democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton. What we have gotten has been back room, corrupt Chicago style politics, not leadership, and if you have been paying attention, that shouldn’t have come as a surprise.
Update: Roger Kimball makes the following observation:
But incompetence is only one aspect of Obama’s make up. There are two other attributes along with an under-appreciated, or at least under-commented on, character flaw that we must ponder in order to take the full measure of this post-modern American politician.
The other two attributes are 1) arrogance and 2) ideological animus.
