What happened to the meme of the Republicans committing suicide?

Tuesday, November 26th, 2013
Bet you haven’t heard that one in a while.  Probably something to do with Obamacare, which no Republican voted for, being an epic clusterfuck of massive proportions.
A massive failure that was described in detail years ago, only to have those people speaking the truth (because they actually read the so-called “Affordable Care Act”), vilified as racists for daring to commit double plus unhood bad think against our Dear Leader’s Socialist dream.
Or as one pundit put it, Fox News is changing their byline from “Fair and Balanced” to “I told you so.”
Remember how democrats were calling Ted Cruz a “terrorist” for wanting to stop Obamacare? The same democrats that won’t refer to Major Hassan’s attack on US soldiers at Fort Hood as a terrorist attack.  Now we have hardcore, far left extremist democrats, most of which happen to be up for reelection in 2014 (like Al Franken. who only won his election after bags of ballots were mysteriously found), calling for delays in further implementation of Obamacare, at least until after their next election.  If liberal logic actually made any sense, they would be branded terrorists too.  Don’t hold your breath on that though, MSNBC is too busy committing hate crimes against women to admit they were Goebbels  level propagandists for our Dear Leader and his plan to fundamentally transform America.
Here is something that should have been a warning for the so called “centrists” and “moderates” that listened to  the “dog whistle” leftists and voted for the guy who wasn’t even a successful community organizer.  You don’t try and “fundamentally transform” something you like.

“Dear America: We warned about higher premiums & millions of cancellations, & the media called us racist liars. Remember that. — Tea Party”

Round Up Post

Tuesday, November 5th, 2013

File under “Follow the Money”, the Empress Michelle’s so-called “policy initiatives” are bought and paid for by big money lobbies.

HealthCare.gov Users Warn of Security Risk, Breach of Privacy  Golly, Obamacare is a poor designed fiasco of a web site.  No surprise there.

There’s an awful lot of middle-class sticker shock going on with these insurance cancellations…  If you have been listening to the NPR coverage, where they are setting new records for extreme spinning for our Dear Leader, those premiums are only increasing “slightly” and those who complain about it are “whiners.” If you want to see some of those price hikes, check out MyCancellation.com.

The leftists over at Politico admit that the so-called “mainstream media” ignored Conservatives’ warnings about Obamacare for years, and that those warnings were 100% accurate.  Poor Richard’s News sums it up nicely: ” The mainstream media willingly ignores the truth in favor of spoon feeding the American people talking points directly from the White House.”

No surprise here, the NY Times denies that Obama lied repeatedly to the American people.

“Get border agents killed, get ambassadors killed, oversee disastrous healthcare rollout — those people get to keep their jobs. But calling Valerie Jarrett a “vacuous cipher?” That’s a firing offense.”

It isn’t a budget issue

Wednesday, October 16th, 2013

The current political posturing in D.C. is not over the federal budget.  It’s over a ‘continuing resolution’ to fund the government for three months.

That is because the United States of America is entering its fifth fiscal year without an actual federal budget.  An actual federal budget has not passed both houses of Congress and been signed by the President since George W. Bush was President.

The President is required by law to submit a budget to Congress every year.  The person currently occupying the White House during his golf tour has done so.  Those budgets have been received in a truly amazing display of bipartisanship and  have failed to received a single vote from any member of congress of either party, and that includes the socialist who caucuses with the democrats.   I think the best one of his budgets did was 0-97 in the Senate.

The House has submitted at least one budget, with bipartisan support every year, which Harry Reid has refused to bring to the floor for a vote.  The Senate has produced one budget, within the last year, on a strict party line vote.

It is important to note that when the democrats controlled the White House and both houses of Congress, they failed in their primary duty of producing a federal budget.  It is not because they tried and failed, they just didn’t even try.

So it is clear that having a federal budget, that receives a close examination, and is open to debate and review by the public is not something that the democrats want.  Which raises the question of why they don’t want the transparency that  an actual federal budget would bring.

The hypocrisy of the left knows no bounds

Wednesday, October 9th, 2013

Kudos to CSPAN and YouTube, which brings us the words of Senate democrat “leader” Harry Reid from 2006.

Yup, Harry Reid is calling raising the federal limit to $ 9 trillion is the last thing we should do, because it will weaken the country, and hurt the economy.

Was Harry Reid telling the truth or engaging in hyper-partisan political demagoguery because there was a Republican in the White House at the time.   Given his record, if Harry Reid was telling the truth, it was purely by accident.

“Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that “the buck stops here.” Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of leadership. Americans deserve better. I therefore intend to oppose the effort to increase America’s debt limit.”

Barack Hussein Obama

To be fair, that was what he said back in 2006, when he was a Senator from a fly over state with less than one year on the job.  Perhaps he was just dangerously incompetent.  On the other hand, there was a Republican in the White House back then, so perhaps he was just being the hyper-partisan political demagogue that he has proved himself to be time and time again.  On the gripping hand, it probably is both.

The Washington Post had an article that brought up this quote in the context of the current debt limit debate.  It said that Obama’s rhetoric then  would be considered “a bit Tea Partyish” today.  Spin the standard media bias out of that statement, and it is more than a “a bit.” The article also gives Obama an upside down Pinocchio for his current stance.  In their rating scale, that is “A statement that represents a clear but unacknowledged “flip-flop” from a previously-held position.”

The left’s latest spin

Sunday, October 6th, 2013

A friend of mine recently asked me about the “Republican’s political suicide.” I’m betting he heard that from his moonbat ex-wife.

A quick Google search of “republican political suicide” shows all the buzz is coming from the extreme wacko left.  Mother Jones News, Andrew Sullivan and far left wing extremists columnists in the Washington Post.

Sounds more like wishful thinking than thoughtful political analysis.

Those left wing extremists are fear mongering because they are so scared they are soiling their linens.

What is happening with the minority party standing up to the Imperial Obama Presidency, is that they are firing up their base.  Something they have been really, really bad at for the past few elections.  Obama won on low Republican/Conservative base voter turnout, while he was firing up his base hotter than the Devil’s Wedding Tackle.

The democrats have a real problem in 2016, and that is Obama.  He has turned the Presidency into his personal brand, not the brand of the democrat party.

Biden is an idiot, Hillary is seen as damaged goods, and is already being attacked by democrats and news organizations run for the advancement of the democrat party.

So who are they going to run?

Add to the left’s fear multiple conservative members of Congress who are extremely popular with their base.  Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, etc.  Don’t forget former Rep and Ret. Lt. Colonel Allan West. A conservative that the left singled out for attack based on the democrats’ racist policies.

Spot the racist

Tuesday, September 10th, 2013

As it has been noted, a lot of ‘celebrity’ so-called “peace activists” have gone missing.

One of the missing so-called “peace activists”, actor Ed Asner, explains that that really are against our Dear Leader’s Rush to War with Syria, but are not saying anything for fear of being labeled ‘racists.’

Let’s put this in simple terms for Ed and the rest of the Moonbats.   The Minister Farrakhan is taking Barack Hussein Obama to task over basic incompetence.  Cornell West, of Harvard University and former major BHO supporter, has called our Dear Leader a ‘War Criminal’ and stated that if he attacks Syria without Congressional approval, that is grounds for impeachment. The fact that BHO is in completely over his head and is, and has been, completely unqualified for this current position as POTUS, is not a race thing.  It’s an unqualified and incompetent thing.

So all you so-called “progressive liberals” can put on your big boy/girl pants (which ever you prefer), and take a lesson from Momma Moonbat and start protesting in front of the White House again.

“It might seem confusing, but it’s very simple: Sometimes going to war is bad, and those who do it are evil. Other times, the President of the United States is a Democrat.”
