Roundup
Filed under: Congress, Culture of Corruption, Our Dear Leader, Politics, When democrats attack
Today’s roundup post is by Jonah Goldberg:
A Democratic senator hired an unpaid intern who was an undocumented immigrant but a documented sex offender. Apparently Senator Menendez needed an immigrant to do sex offending that Americans won’t do.
Meanwhile, Representative Jim Moran is “embarrassed” by the revelation that his voter-fraud-orchestrating son smashed his girlfriend’s face into a garbage can and pleaded guilty to assault. The girlfriend appears to be doing what she can to make the story go away. But don’t worry, the phrase “war on women” may still only be used to describe people who don’t want to pay for someone else’s birth control. No word if anyone on the left will be expressing their gratitude for the Violence Against Women Act for this.
Over in Michigan, defenders of the union protestors who tore down an Americans for Prosperity tent are heading toward trutherism, suggesting that it was all a set up, the canvas-and-rope equivalent of the Reichstag fire. No word yet if anyone is claiming the Jews inside the tent got advance notice.
Oh, and after months — nay years — of rhetoric from the president and his proxies about how taxes are simply a sign of neighborliness and the dues we pay to live in this great country, we learn that Obama’s staff owe nearly a million dollars in back taxes.
And the Republicans are losing to these guys.
HT to Mr Reynolds, who is correct in his assessment. Just another example of how you would rarely loose money betting on Congressional Republicans to screw the pooch.

Quote of the Day

The “anti-war” “left” was used by the Democratic Party. I like to call it the “anti-Republican War” movement.
While I agree with you about the hypocrisy of such sites as the DailyKos, I have known for a long time that the Democrats are equally responsible with the Republicans. That’s why I left the party in May 2007 and that’s why I ran for Congress against Nancy Pelosi in 2008.
How did the tolerant and opened mined liberals in the far left extremist Nancy Pelosi’s district react to Ms. Sheehan running against their sitting Congressional rep?
They slashed the tires on Cindy Sheehan’s van.
Meanwhile in Wisconsin…
Threats made against blogger Ann Althouse for publishing actual facts about the Union protests.
This must that “new civility” the leftists have been talking about…
Extra bonus democrat corruption outside Wisconsin:
Two Democratic Party leaders in Michigan face nine felony counts for trying to fix an election. The real news here is that they are actually facing charges, given that election fraud is reliable method of collecting democrat votes.
Update: 20 Days of Left-Wing Thuggery in Wisconsin: When Will Obama, Democrats, and MSM Call for Civility?
I’m not advising you to hold your breath waiting for it.
Update 2: Death Threats by the Dozens in Wisconsin. What is it with so called “liberals” and death threats against anybody who dares to disagree with them? Why is the left so afraid of an open debate of ideas? The next question is just how stupid these death threat making liberals really are. Perhaps the answer lies with this idiot, who posts death threats from his twitter account.
More death threats against politicans
The text of the message read:
“To the Honorable William D. Snyder; You better just stop that ridiculous law if you value you rand your familie’s lives ashole.”
The “political activist”, Manuel Pintado, attends the University of Massachusetts. The University has been silent on his spelling and grammar mistakes.
Good to see the left is maintaining a civil discussion of the issues and not falling into a rhetoric of hate…or not…
Update: Ms. Malkin correctly identifies this as part of the Progressive Climate of Hate.
Violence from the left
Filed under: Barking Moonbats, Politics, When democrats attack
Let us remember that the vast majority of violence in the political arena comes from the left.
Evil Teabagger has a short list:
- Obama supporter punches a Tea Party supporter in the face, after assaulting his wife.
- Tea Party protesters are assaulted by pro-amnesty/socialists activists.
- Ken Gladney was attacked by SEUI thugs outside of a healthcare townhall.
- Congressman Bob Etheridge attacked a college student who asked, “Do you support the Obama Agenda?”
- Remember that guy who stabbed that muslim cab driver? Yeah he was a radical leftist too, he actually works for a pro Park51 group.
- Bill Ayers
- Leftist assaulted Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal’s Fundraising staff,resulting in a broken leg.
This is not new behavior. Here is a quick review of some their violent attacks in the 2008 election.
- democrats attack GOP office in Virginia
- The home of a Central Florida Republican headquarters manager was shot up and damaged over his support of Sen. John McCain, the man told police.
- Obama Supporter Assaults Female McCain Volunteer in New York
- Tossing a Molotov cocktail at a McCain/Palin sign
When democrats Attack!
Time for another exciting chapter of “When democrats Attack!”
Let us start with a bit of “blue on blue” action.
Rep. Carnahan, democrat from Missouri, had his office firebombed. Of course, the open minded and tolerant liberals blamed someone from the “Tea Party,” despite there being absolutely no history of violence from that group.
So, who actually firebombed the offices of the democrat from Missouri? Well, it turns out that it was one of his own staffers, a liberal democrat by the name of Chris Powers.
Let’s follow that up with a NYC leftist stabbing a Muslim cabdriver in the neck for…wait for it…being a Muslim!
Big HT to Gateway Pundit for these stories the DNC/MSM won’t carry.
Just to round out the Hat Trick, here is another GP story about an open minded and tolerant leftist who verbally attacked an 82 year old Holocaust survivor. The open minded and tolerant leftist said that the 82 year old Holocaust survivor “obviously didn’t learn his lesson.”
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.
What does the left have against Free Speech?
The modern American left has a long, and sad, history of attacks on the First Amendment.
A history they are obviously willing to continue. Now the left is once again adding racist attacks to their resume.
“Oreos,” “traitors,” and “Uncle Toms“ are just a few of the ugly names that black conservatives have been called for having the audacity to oppose the nation’s first black president. According to AP writer Valerie Bauman, Timothy F. Johnson, chairman of the conservative Frederick Douglass Foundation, has been called much worse. “I’ve been told I’m a spook at the door,” reports Johnson. “I’ve been told I hate myself.”
…
The great irony, of course, is that the need for blacks to fall in line rather than think for themselves is the worst kind of racial stereotyping—self policing. It is precisely this kind of ugly mob tactics that Democrats claim to find so abhorrent.
Then we have a member of Code Pink attempting physical assault on Karl Rove, and attacking his First Amendment Rights. To make this story even more disgusting, Jodie Evans is a top “bundler” for the Obama administration, bringing huge amounts of cash for direct access with our Dear Leader. Clearly Evans’ attacks against Mr. Rove are politically motivated. Unlike other protesters who have convictions that know no political boundaries.
The left is nowhere done with their continued assault on the First Amendment. With the Tax Day Tea Party protests coming up, there is an organized effort to disrupt them and to falsely portray the protesters as what the left is trying to paint them as. Respected polling organizations have shown that the majority of the Tea Party protesters are a cross section of America. Not only does the left want to deny the Tea Party movement their rights of Free Speech and Assembly, they have to lie in order to try and get their twisted view of reality out where MSNBC can air their lies as “news.”
democrats against the First Amendment
Filed under: Free Speech, Politics, The Peoples Commonweath, When democrats attack
Yet another case of democrat‘s utter contempt for a Free Press (at least when it isn’t acting in their benefit).
Weekly Standard reporter John McCormack tried to question democrat Martha Coakley out side a fund raiser in Washington, D.C. (Coakley is running for the Senate in Massachusetts, where her Republican opponent has no problem raising funds) and was “roughed up” for daring to exercise his First Amendment rights.
Don’t expect this type of behavior from democrat Martha Coakley if she gets elected to the US Senate.
More at Frugal Cafe, Hot Air & Michelle Malkin’s site.
Update: Coakley aide Michael Meehan admits he shoved Weekly Standard reporter John McCormack to the ground.
