Run, Liz, Run!

Because nothing spells national political success like a faux Cherokee from Massachusetts!



To tie a bow on the headdress of the far, far, far left progressive fraud known as Elizabeth "Hiawatha" Warren, please note that the would-be contender for a future Democrat presidential nomination is a brash critic of deep-pocketed Republican campaign contributors.

And, hilariously, she was the featured speaker at a meeting of the Democracy Alliance, a far, far, far left progressive cadre of donors who, according to the schmucks at Politico, are significantly more deep-pocketed than the Koch brothers:

Since its inception in 2005, the club’s partners have combined to give more than $500 million to recommended groups, and they played a pivotal early role in boosting Barack Obama during his 2008 Democratic presidential primary bid against Clinton.

Hypocrisy, thy name is "Democrat".

MORE DEMOCRATS WHO THINK YOU'RE STUPID: Mary Landrieu's Transparent Keystone Ploy

By Investor's Business Day

Politics: When they had the majority, Senate Democrats quarterbacked President Obama's delay-of-game strategy on the Keystone XL pipeline and its tens of thousands of jobs. Now they hold a vote just to save one senator's job.

Democrat Sen. Mary Landrieu of Louisiana, locked in a runoff battle with Louisiana Rep. Bill Cassidy, announced Wednesday that she had secured an agreement from her party leaders to hold a floor vote on the Keystone XL pipeline after years of delay, we had to add ours to the voices asking, why now?

For Landrieu, a vote on Keystone may seem to be just the life preserver she needs as she struggles to survive the GOP wave of 2014. For the Democratic Party, it may seem an opportunity to salvage at least one of their brethren and why not vote now, when an outgoing Democratic senate and not an incoming Republican one could take the credit.

We welcome a vote and approval in the Senate as well as the House vote and approval on legislation approving KXL sponsored by Landrieu's opponent, Cassidy. The pipeline would create tens of thousands of new jobs in its construction, operation, and in spin-off effects as it brings nearly a million barrels of oil a day from not only Canada's tar sands but also the exploding oil fields of North Dakota's Bakken shale formation.

To be fair, Landrieu and GOP Sen. John Hoeven of North Dakota introduced the Senate bill on May 1. A May 2013 vote on a nonbinding amendment to a Senate budget draft won the votes of 17 Democrats, including Landrieu, to go along with all 45 Republicans. Buy no real vote was scheduled until the Democrats lost the Senate and Landrieu teetered on the edge of political oblivion.

The Democrats cynical scheduling of a Keystone vote can only feed the cynicism most voters feel toward politicians and the political process.

HORRIFYING REPORT: Qatar Using Thousands of North Korean Slaves to Prepare for 2022 World Cup

It is striking that the "compassionate Left" rarely stands up for the rights of women, the LGBT community, people of multiple religious backgrounds, and other oppressed minorities when the oppressors turn out to be those running predominately Muslim countries.

According to The Clarion Project, Qatar "is most likely the largest funder of Islamist terror in the world", yet the United States and its legacy media are curiously silent on the matter.

Worse still, the Korean newspaper Chosun reports that Qatar is using thousands of North Korean slave laborers.

...[Slave laborers] are involved in construction of the 86,000-seat main stadium for the 2022 World Cup, a top-class hotel complex and two golf courses in Lusail, a new planned city 20 km north of the Qatari capital of Doha.

Most of their fellow workers from Vietnam, India and Nepal get off at dusk, but the North Koreans often labor on in the glare of fluorescent lamps until late at night.

Some 2,800 North Korean workers in Qatar start at 6 a.m. and continue till after midnight, except for a break for food. But they have to give 90 percent of their salary to the regime. A North Korean official admitted to the Guardian that the workers are not paid directly but claimed the money is paid "to their families."

In reality, the Qatari government stands accused of being driven by North Korea's "state-sponsored trafficking for forced labor."

Sorry, Nissan, but you're no Kim Kardashian

Road and Track highlights another corporate Twitter meme gone bad.

Paper set out to “break the Internet” yesterday with its now-infamous cover photo prominently featuring Kim Kardashian’s ass. This, of course, got everyone talking on the (as yet unbroken) Internet, driving Nissan to awkwardly tweet its way in on the joke.

Nissan’s gag plays on the less revealing version of Paper’s two-part cover photo (see them here, and be warned—there’s naked booty ahead). But that’s the problem: the non-naked photo Paper chose for its cover is itself a riff on an older photo, Jean-Paul Goude’s equally NSFW “Champagne Incident”. That makes Nissan’s tweet a joke about a joke—all in the name of riding a dopey hashtag wave.


The GT-R is one of the world's few, true sports cars; as such, its image doesn't deserve to be tarnished with the likes of the least interesting celebrity in the world.

INVASION: Obama plans to unveil unlawful executive orders on Amnesty as early as next week

The evisceration of the Constitution continues apace, with America's highest law ignored by the Party of Evil and left undefended by the Party of Stupidity.

President Obama is planning to unveil a 10-part plan for overhauling U.S. immigration policy via executive action -- including suspending deportations for millions -- as early as next Friday, a source close to the White House told Fox News.

The president's plans were contained in a draft proposal from a U.S. government agency. The source said the plan could be announced as early as Nov. 21, though the date might slip a few days pending final White House approval...

...The plan calls for expanding deferred action for illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. as children -- but also for the parents of U.S. citizens and legal permanent residents.

The latter could allow upwards of 4.5 million illegal immigrant adults with U.S.-born children to stay, according to estimates.

Critics in the Senate say those who receive deferred action, according to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, receive work authorization in the United States, Social Security numbers and government-issued IDs.

And what will be the inevitable effect of these criminal activities on the part of Barack Obama, i.e., rewriting statutes as though he's some sort of Third World dictator?

You guessed it: a veritable invasion of America by the world's impoverished, diseased, illiterate, criminal, dependent, and rent-seeking classes, to name but a few.

This disgraceful action would represent a fundamental transformation of the country and must be met with Articles of Impeachment.

Of that, there can be no doubt or question.

TYRANNY: White House Plans Crackdown on "Unregulated Speech"

By Mac Slavo

When we talk about tyranny we often associate it with images of Adolf Hitler or Joseph Stalin. But as Bill Whittle notes in the following Firewall commentary, in modern-day America tyranny manifests in many different forms and takes on many different faces.

And unlike despots of the past, the faces of modern day tyrants are smiling and look completely innocent, but their sinister intentions can be seen by their actions.

They have, as Whittle warns, weaponized the government with the end game being the complete stifling of free speech. Because once they shut down the flow of information and open discourse it is they who will control the narrative.

They don’t like being told what to do, or to think — the way nice people do. So she has been ordered to weaponize the government against unregulated speech — we don’t call it “free speech” any more because that term is archaic and also probably racist.

... First, regulate everything. How on earth with people like Ann Ravel and, for that matter, the President of the United States, ever be able to feel secure when the American people are just running around starting businesses willy-nilly, or irresponsibly making internet videos that don’t conform to the Official Truth, or reading news stories — “news stories!” — on places like Fox or the Drudge Report.

No, the idea of something being unregulated — like, say, the internet — is anathema to these control freaks, so the chance to regulate something — anything — is good to go right out of the gate.

Full Transcript via Truth Revolt

To the modern tyrant the battlefield is everywhere and nowhere has it become more apparent than in cyberspace, where soldiers of the machine who claim they are just following orders actively work to supplant and undermine the voice of the people.

QOTD: "...Obamacare remains incredibly unpopular. Actual public opinion polling shows that the public’s opinion is considerably more nuanced on this issue and that certain provisions of the law are very popular while others are not. But what the polling has consistently shown is that specifically, what is dragging down Obamacare’s popularity overall is the individual mandate penalty, which is far and away the most unpopular part (and widely known) feature of the law.

There may well be some unfortunate consequences of undoing the federal subsidies from the standpoint of the workability of the law itself, but negative public response will definitely not be one of them. In fact, it is hard to imagine, at least from a purely political standpoint, a more desirable result than having the individual mandate kicked out from under the law for a sizeable portion of America. The natural consequence of this is that millions of Americans will happily be freed from the mandate, whereas those who remain subject to it will likely see their premiums spike as a result, which will consequently make the law yet more unpopular in the eyes of the American public." --Leon Wolf

The right of the people to keep and read books shall not be infringed

By Buckeye Firearms

The Second Amendment to the Constitution of the United States reads,

A well regulated militia being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.

Progressives read this and say that only those people in “a well-regulated militia” have the right to keep and bear arms. Let’s find out why this is utter nonsense, shall we?

Over at the Constitution Society, author J. Neil Schulman conducted a remarkable exercise. He sent the text of the Second Amendment not to a lawyer but to an expert on the English Language: Roy Copperud taught Journalism at USC for 17 years and served on the usage panel of the American Heritage Dictionary. Mirriam Webster’s dictionary frequently cites him as an expert on American English usage.

...He sent Mr. Copperud a precisely grammatically identical sentence: “A well-schooled electorate, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and read Books, shall not be infringed.” Does that mean, he asked, that only a well-schooled electorate — high school graduates, say — are the only ones with the right to keep and read books?

I BLAME MILITANT QUAKERS: Suicide bomber at Nigerian school kills 47 and injures 79

John Lott alerts us to this horrifying news out of Nigeria:

There are obviously many different ways to kill a large number of people. This attack is deadlier than any attack in the US...

A suicide bomber on Monday blew himself up during a school assembly in northeastern Nigeria, killing at least 47 people and showing how an Islamist insurgency is apparently drawing young, radical and educated people to its ranks.

The explosion took place shortly after a morning assembly began at the Government Senior Science Secondary School in Potiskum in Nigeria’s northeastern Yobe state...

An "Islamist insurgency"?

Oh, my. No one tell Ben Affleck.

How pervasive is government harassment of the press?

By Michael Snyder

Someone is attempting to harass and intimidate media personalities that are very critical of Barack Obama and his administration. Whoever is doing this has extremely advanced technical capabilities. As you will see below, there is very strong anecdotal evidence that federal agents are involved. But these agents would never commit such actions on their own. It seems clear that they are getting orders from someone above them. Of course Barack Obama (or any of his top lieutenants) would never come out and publicly admit that Gestapo tactics are being used against media personalities on Obama’s rumored “enemies list”, but that appears to be precisely what is happening. Hopefully by shining a light on these activities it will cause those that are doing these things to cease and desist. And it is very important to point out that what is being done to these media personalities is illegal. Anyone that is involved in harassing media personalities because of what they are saying is violating federal law and is in danger of going to prison for a very, very long time.

Later in this article, I want to share with you the shocking harassment and intimidation that Rick Wiles of TruNews has been enduring lately. But first, let’s review what has happened to former CBS News reporter Sharyl Attkisson. She was an award-winning journalist for more than thirty years, but that didn’t stop the Obama administration from systematically harassing her. In her new book entitled Stonewalled: My Fight for Truth Against the Forces of Obstruction, Intimidation, and Harassment in Obama’s Washington, she makes some extremely startling claims. She believes that the harassment and intimidation that she experienced were the direct result of her determination to get to the truth about Benghazi, Fast and Furious, the green energy scandals and Obamacare. The following are some of the main points that she has been sharing with the media in recent weeks…

QOTD: "Back in 2006, the GOP got swept out of office, and it has now been swept back into power. But the faces of its leadership have not changed. Boehner and McConnell are still there.

The Democrats now have decided to keep its faces the same too. Pelosi, Reid, and all of Obama’s advisors will be the same.

There is one startling difference though. The GOP, since 2006, has engaged in a House cleaning due to its base. It has been challenged, people more connected to the ideals of limited government have come into power, and in 2014 we are going to see a more conservative House of Representatives with Cruz, Paul, Lee, Rubio, etc. still in the Senate.

The Democrats have seen the right of their party destroyed, the left of their party emboldened, and the heart of their party re-inforced. All that the public rejected on Tuesday is now the bedrock of the Democratic Party." --Erick Erickson

As Obama needlessly stalls the Keystone XL pipeline, China and Russia ink massive energy deal

By Investor's Business Daily

Energy Policy: Hours before the president who stalled the Keystone XL pipeline arrived in Beijing, Russia and China signed 16 energy agreements, including one to supply Russian natural gas to its energy-hungry neighbor.

Chinese President Xi Jinping's meeting Sunday night with Russian President Vladimir Putin was the 10th between the two since Xi took China's helm 20 months ago. They talked energy, the critical role of which in world affairs they, if not the Obama administration, seem to recognize.

The 16 agreements that they inked included one dealing with a western pipeline, the Altai route, to carry 30 billion cubic meters (bcm) of Russian natural gas to China annually, part of a framework agreement between Russian energy giant Gazprom and the state-run China National Petroleum.

The new energy supply line complements an already announced pipeline in the east, dubbed the Power of Siberia, which will supply 38 bcm annually to China. Work on that route began after a $400 billion deal was signed in May.

Yang Cheng of the Center for Russian Studies in Shanghai said of the agreements that they represent "the shared pursuit of major emerging economies seeking a greater capability to shape the international and regional order."

Both Russia and China are expansionist powers, with Putin seeking to reassemble the lost Soviet empire and China pursuing territorial ambitions in the East and South China Seas.

It would seem that the vast majority of Americans still believe that we have a governing document known as "the Constitution", which would ostensibly require that a President work with Congress to arrive at new laws.


In fact, even the majority (62 percent) of Latinos and Blacks oppose Obama's outrageous attempt to rewrite federal immigration statutes on his own.

Should this nefarious act occur, there should be only one remedy considered by the Congress. And that is impeachment.

THE MIDTERM ELECTIONS: A Stunning Slap in the Face to the Global Warming Grifters

By Alan Caruba


What the midterm voters wanted was an economy that returned to its average 3.3% annual growth since the end of World War II. For six years of the Obama presidency, growth has all but disappeared. In 2013, as measured by the World Bank, it was barely 1.9% That translated into a lack of jobs, stagnant middle class income, and what Obama correctly called the Great Recession, but could not end.

Instead, in the lead-up to the midterm elections, he was still talking about “climate change” as the greatest threat to the nation and the world. For the voters, however, climate change wasn’t even on its list of priorities and with good reason, there is nothing anyone or any nation can or should do about the great forces of nature that determine what the Earth’s climate will be; starting with the Sun.

The day after the elections two major environmental organizations, the Sierra Club and Friends of the Earth (FOE), wrote to their members. Their message was similar and their conclusions were absurd.

“The election’s over and the planet lost,” wrote Erich Pica, FOE president. “The next Congress will be controlled by politicians elected with millions of dollars of the Koch brothers’ oil money—putting at risk the vital environmental protections we’ve fought so hard to achieve.” FOE has more than 2 million activists in 75 nations including the U.S.

What Pica does not mention in his letter is the estimated $85 million spent on six Senate races by what The Hill described as “the nation’s top environmental groups including the League of Conservation Voters, the Sierra Club, the Environmental Defense Fund, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and billionaire Tom Steyer’s NextGen Climate…”

So the Koch brother’s money is evil, but environmental organizations’ money is okay?

QOTD: "This bill was written in a tortured way to make sure CBO did not score the mandate as taxes. If CBO scored the mandate as taxes, the bill dies. Okay, so it’s written to do that.

In terms of risk rated subsidies, if you had a law which said that healthy people are going to pay in – you made explicit healthy people pay in and sick people get money, it would not have passed… Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage. And basically, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really really critical for the thing to pass… Look, I wish Mark was right that we could make it all transparent, but I’d rather have this law than not." --Obamacare architect Jonathan Gruber
