Schumer's Math: $25 = 1 cent


Question: when does $25 equal 1 cent?
Answer: when Charles Schumer is using his official Democrat Party Calculator™

Charles Schumer, May 13 2008:

If Saudi Arabia were to increase its production by 1 million barrels per day that translates to a reduction of 20 percent to 25 percent in the world price of crude oil, and crude oil prices could fall by more than $25 dollar per barrel from its current level of $126 per barrel. In turn, that would lower the price of gasoline between 13 percent and 17 percent, or by more than 62 cents off the expected summer regular-grade price - offering much needed relief to struggling families.

Charles Schumer, May 6 2008:

ANWR [the Alaska National Wildlife Refuge] wouldn’t produce a drop of oil in 10 years, and its estimated that if they drilled in ANWR in twenty years it would reduce the price one penny.

1 million barrels a day is precisely the amount of oil that experts believe we would have been pumping today through the Alyeska pipeline had Bill Clinton not vetoed drilling in 1995.

When it comes to partisan hackery, Charles Schumer is truly without peer. Is he really the best that New York can do?

The Chat: Obama and Ahmadinejad


  Hi.

  Hello.

 

 

  Well, it's nice to finally meet you...

  Same here.

  So... how 'bout them Cubs?

  28 and 18! Zambrano's been having a hell of a year!

  Indeed. But enough pleasantries, I'd --

  No, we're not disbanding our nuclear program.

  What if we gave up 40% of Israel?

  How about 100% -- and we keep our nukes?

  You drive a hard bargain. What say you to... 50% of Israel and some F-16s?

  F-16s... uhm, no.

  My final offer: 60% of Israel, including Jerusalem. And a fully equipped aircraft carrier.

  Your voice... so smooth, so debonair... hmmm... I feel a concession coming on.

  Excellent!

  **Whew** I'm sorry, it wasn't a concession -- just gas. I've been diagnosed with problem flatulence.

  Painful affliction.

  I'll say. Anyhoo... look, here's the deal. We'll promise to stop our nuclear program in exchange for 95% of Israel, including Jerusalem. And a fully equipped aircraft carrier. As long as there are no nuclear inspectors. You can trust us -- our word is bond!

  Done! Oh, one other thing...

  Could you throw in $31 million for a... a... friend?

  $31 million? Get me a week of Karl Rove's consulting service and I'll round it up to $40 mill. I've got to run for re-election again.

  Oh, and say hi to Vice President Pelosi for me! Wink, wink, nudge, nudge!

Update: TNOYF utilized a time-travel device to ascertain the real dialog between the leaders.

Obama's donation website accepts illegal foreign contributions


Barack Obama's electronic contribution site (https://donate.barackobama.com/page/contribute/abroadHP -- not hyperlinked for obvious reasons) accepts donations from countries like China, Iran, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia and Somalia -- although someone had the sense to remove North Korea from the list. The donor is only required to click a check-box, which attests they are legally allowed to contribute.

Remember, Federal election law expressly forbids soliciting, accepting or receiving contributions or donations from foreign nationals:

As noted earlier, the Act prohibits knowingly soliciting, accepting or receiving contributions or donations from foreign nationals. In this context, "knowingly" means that a person:

* Has actual knowledge that the funds solicited, accepted, or received are from a foreign national;
* Is aware of facts that would lead a reasonable person to believe that the funds solicited, accepted, or received are likely to be from a foreign national;
* Is aware of facts that would lead a reasonable person to inquire whether the source of the funds solicited, accepted or received is a foreign national...

No other presidential candidate allows such an easy channel for illegal campaign contributions. For example, John McCain and Hillary Clinton do not accept donations from abroad without a complete, written documentation packet sent via postal mail.

It would seem to me that Obama's form is in direct violation of federal law. I think we should demand an accounting of these foreign contributions and his campaign should follow precedent by requiring documentation of legal status for foreign donors.

Obama's campaign: a stinking corpse


My mistake. That's what Barack Obama's negotiating partner said about the hegemonic empire of Israel.

Michael Goldfarb finds Barack Obama foreign policy adviser Susan Rice providing the
nuance to Wolf Blitzer on Obama's commitment to meet with Iran's leader:

BLITZER: How does Senator Obama defend that decision to meet without preconditions with a leader like Ahmadinejad?

RICE: Well, first of all, he said he'd meet with the appropriate Iranian leaders. He hasn't named who that leader will be. It may, in fact be that by the middle of next of year, Ahmadinejad is long gone.

BLITZER: Let's be precise because when they criticize Barack Obama, not only John McCain but others, for suggesting that he would meet without preconditions with Ahmadinejad, who only last week on Israel's 60th anniversary called Israel a "stinking corpse." The question that they ask is what is Barack Obama going to talk with him about?

RICE: Well, first of all as I said, it would be the appropriate Iranian leadership at the appropriate time – not necessarily Ahmadinejad.

It isn't very difficult to dig up the reports of Obama's commitment to meet with Ahmadinejad specifically, as indicated in this USA Today report and this CBS News Horserace report. As John Hinderaker asked yesterday: Can someone explain why it is, exactly, that Barack Obama is not a laughingstock?

Who said he wasn't?

The presumptive Democratic nominee just lost by 35% in the Kentucky primary.

Six degrees of Barack Obama -- Updated


On May 14 Barack Obama held a private and unpublicized meeting with Imam Hassan Qazwini at Macomb Community College in Michigan.

Qazwini heads the Islamic Center of America in Dearborn. Debbie Schlussel describes Qazwini as the Hezbollah terror group's foremost agent in America.

Qazwini is very open about his support for Palestinian homicide bombings, HAMAS, and Hezbollah. And he's a good friend of Hezbollah spiritual leader, Sheikh Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah--the man who issued the fatwa to Hezbollah terrorists to murder over 300 U.S. Marines and U.S. Embassy civilians in cold blood. Qazwini's mosque has held rallies and celebrations in support of Hezbollah, and many of Hezbollah's biggest money-launderers and agents in America are his congregants.

When I went undercover to his mosque in 1998, he and others welcomed Nation of Islam chief racist Louis Farrakhan as "our dear brother" and "a freedom fighter." Qazwini applauded Farrakhan's anti-Semitic statements saying that Jews were the "forces of Satan" and that there needed to be a "jihad" on the American people.

Obama's meeting with Qazwini was discovered almost by accident. The Detroit Free Press had a short piece on the meeting, which appears to have been sourced by Qazwini's mosque.



The Obama campaign remains utterly silent about the meeting and the mainstream media has kept its lips sealed.

Powerline's Scott Johnson adds:

The Free Press account states that the two discussed the presidential election, the Arab-Israeli conflict, and the Iraq war, according to Qazwini. Schlussel asks why "this open anti-Semite and supporter of Israel's annihilation" was afforded the privilege of discussing "the Arab-Israeli conflict" in a private one-on-one meeting with Obama. Perhaps they were discussing what Obama referred to as the "legitimate claims" of Hamas and Hezbollah in his chat with David Brooks.

In light of Obama's secret meeting with Imam Hassan Qazwini, I was forced to update my original "Six Degrees of Barack Obama" chart.

Like I said last time, it doesn't take six degrees to connect Obama to a bunch of virulent racists, hate-mongers and murderous terrorists.

One or two degrees is about all it takes.

And I'm starting to run out of axes. I'll have to go diagonal soon. And then 3-D.

Moonbat secretes another racist screed at Daily Kos


Bow down before the awesome genius of Nepos Libertas: "Eulogy before the Inevitability of Self-Destruction: The Decline and Death of Israel."

Before the covetous Zionist movement multiply like cancer cells, there was a degree of harmony between the Palestinian Arab and the Semite Jew of Israelite origin who share ethnic heritage in common as the descendants of Abraham...

...[Israel] emerged as a major power and a formidable challenger of existing Arabic powers that will decide the fate of the world, beginning with November 22, 1963 coup d'etat in CIA-MOSSAD coordinated assassination of President Kennedy which unnaturally led to the hasty re-evaluation of American foreign policy for adjustion that align with the interests of Israeli state for total compatibility in irreversibly entangled alliance.

...Israel embody the vessel of boiling blood of horror and perfidy in demonic vileness for its pattern of terrorism and murder in the name of Zionist ideology.

...Drunken by its belief of entitlement and arrogance - as well as inability to streamline the management of the Israeli economy for great liberalization of the sluggish economy beset by bureaucratic incompetence and vanity because it feeds on the carcass of the financial corpses of the United States and Germany in reparations perpetuated in the name of the victims of the Nazi Holocaust (which enlightened the Zionists to convene the fulfillment of Theodor Herzl's penile fantasy for the permanent home of the scattered tribe of brutish and incorrigible Ashkenazi Khazar descendants to assimilate the customs, culture and genetics of the ancient Israelites) - Israel now believes it has the power to exercise control of the region by subversive means even if the result will be counterproductive that may end in disastrous blowback not only for Israel but also precipitate the accelerated fall of the United States in economic and moral collapse in mismanagement of the host nation's priorities.

...This is the bidding of a farewell formed in the extension of a middle finger by the militantly atheistic Luciferian Ashkenazic Jewish sect that - resolved they be - believe in - by genetic predisposition and/or indoctrination from birth - supremacism of the Master Race, because they have accomplished the goal of procreating State of Israel to dominate in hegemony by the art of seduction, after centuries of persecution and expulsion on charge of treason by subversion of host nations, blood rituals in human sacrifice of Gentile children, corruption and ravishing of women, conspiracy to injure and murder esteemed officers & rulers and usurious & fraudulent deed in union with the spiritual descendants of the wicked Jews of the extinct Sadducee sect, the persecutor and abetted executioner of Jesus Christ, propagating fruition of the species as the "Chosen One" and bringing the world to its knees without mercy for subservience and obedience by slavery (brainwash) and tyranny.

...Israel's fate is uncertain, but I am positively certain it will, to paraphrase Ayatollah Khomeini, "vanish from the page of time". Its eventual destruction will be effectuated by its own hands -- the checkmate action that fit the personas of a maddeningly ambitious, ferocious, delusional and suicidal psychopath.

A little work on his diction and "Nepos" could get an offer to collaborate from Mearsheimer and Walt. Or Hamas.

Media bias chickens come home to roost


Can you believe this crap?

What?

This f*****g biased media coverage!

What now?

Tucker Carlson says the media's love of Obama is "9th-grade boy... red-in-the-face... too embarrassed to stand up, ...sealed-with-a-kiss love"! Hey, Tucker, if it lasts more than four hours, you know what to do!

And Brian Williams slobbered through another interview with Obama... didn't ask one tough question. "How does this feel, of all the honors that have come your way, all the publicity?" And then he holds up the new Time cover with a smiling Obama on the cover...

And CNN! Our network! Wolf Blitzer lobbed even more softballs at Obama! On for half an hour, and not one question about that crackpot Wright... and he holds up the cover of Time, too!

Even Ann Curry -- that gender traitor! -- she interviews the savior and asks him "Beatles or the Rolling Stones?" and shows him "flirting" with voters...

And Chris Ballhard -- I mean Hardball -- Matthews said he "felt this thrill going up my leg" whenever Obama speaks...

...David Shuster says that I "pimped out" Chelsea.

This media bias is...

The phone's ringing... pick it up, Bill!

This media bias is completely, completely, out of cont-- G*******t, get the f*****g phone, Bill!!!

Got it... babe, the call's for you.

MUHAWHAWHAWHAW!!!
