Shock: Obama toadie, faux Republican, and professional wuss to speak at Democrat National Convention

You may know him as "Jon Huntsman", if that is his real name.


Gee, and he had well over 0.5 percent of the vote in the GOP primary.



Oh, Noes: Mitt Romney Once Ran a Nazi Death Cult!

At least that's the latest claim from President Axelrod's Obama's campaign:

By now everyone has heard that Mitt Romney Hood is a felon, a tax cheat, and an accomplice to murder - but those current truths only scratch the surface of his deviancy.

The Party™ plans to remedy this with a new magazine that will deliver a full spectrum of korrekt information about Romney to the oppressed masses - and much more! That's not to say that the NYT, WaPo, NBC, CBC, ABC, and CNN are not doing a fine job of this already, but an extra $3 contribution to Obama's campaign will not hurt. And this is exactly how much you must pay in order to get the first issue absolutely free!


Inside you will find:

- Drugs-and-sex-crazed GOP convention
- Dependent-of-the-Month centerfold
- Capitalist vampires living on virgin blood
- Cher: Ghost of Republican Sonny Bono is forcing me to have a baby
- Lead story - Mitt Romney's Nazi torture cult: only a woman's screams can make him smile.

In a Single Chart: Why Goldman Sachs, Jon Corzine, and the Rest of Wall Street Will Never Face Prosecution From Democrats

Yes, it's. Just. This. Simple.


Hope and change, baby. Hope and change.



Democrats' Massive Tax Hike on the Middle Class, Conveniently Deferred Until After the Election

It's pretty hilarious that the Obama campaign is wasting money advertising on this august periodical with its usual litany of outrageous lies. This one, for example, is a classic:


What a crock. The actual Obama budget, according to The Washington Post, does anything but reduce the deficit.


As for "slashing taxes on the middle class", that's complete bunk as well. The actual toll from Obamacare alone will hit that segment hardest:


And let's not even discuss the onset of inflation -- from gas to food and everything in between -- thanks to Obama's deficit-spending and attendant money-printing.

Everything this man says is a lie. And if he caught himself telling the truth, he'd tell a lie just to keep his hand in (to paraphrase Harry Truman describing Richard Nixon).



Handicapping the VP race based upon Wikipedia edits

The concept of predicting a VP candidate based upon the volatility of their Wikipedia biographies, as CNN explains, is not new.

In the past, Wikipedia activity has spiked for vice presidential picks the day before an official announcement was made. In 2008, hours before Republican candidate John McCain announced his vice presidential choice, Sarah Palin's Wikipedia page was getting a heavy edit. According to The Washington Post, the then-Alaska governor's page was changed 68 times the day before the announcement. In the 24 hours leading up to Obama's running mate announcement, Joe Biden's page was edited 40 times.

So I decided to take an updated look, heading into the weekend, at activity for "the Big Four" ostensible VP contenders.

Wikipedia modifications to VP contender biographies over the last week:

• Rob Portman: 159 changes.
• Paul Ryan 96 changes
• Marco Rubio 83 changes
• Tim Pawlenty 34 changes

Wikipedia modifications to VP contender biographies over the last day:

• Paul Ryan 38 changes
• Rob Portman: 33 changes.
• Marco Rubio 24 changes
• Tim Pawlenty 11 changes

If recency is any indicator, it looks like Paul Ryan is coming on strong.

I can't imagine Rob Portman -- a pasty, boring white guy, affiliated with the Bush administration and who is largely unknown outside Washington -- as the VP candidate. Sorry, I just can't.

As for Tim Pawlenty: based on the stats, he looks like a non-entity when it comes to VP contender status. Which is as it should be. The guy dropped out of the GOP primary in what seemed to be about four days.

Marco Rubio or Paul Ryan would both make outstanding choices. Charisma. Principles. Brains. All of the things, in other words, lacking in Joe Biden.

QOTD: "In my opinion, none of the psephologists [Nate Silver, Sean Trende, Charlie Cook, Jay Cost, and the others who make a profession of political prognostication] has reflected on the degree to which the administrative entitlements state – envisaged by Woodrow Wilson and the Progressives, instituted by Franklin Delano Roosevelt, and expanded by their successors – has entered a crisis, and none of them is sensitive to the manner in which Barack Obama, in his audacity, has unmasked that state’s tyrannical propensities and its bankruptcy. In consequence, none of these psephologists has reflected adequately on the significance of the emergence of the Tea-Party Movement, on the meaning of Scott Brown’s election and the particular context within which he was elected, on the election of Chris Christie as Governor of New Jersey and of Bob McDonnell as Governor of Virginia, and on the political earthquake that took place in November, 2010. That earthquake, which gave the Republicans a strength at the state and local level that they have not enjoyed since 1928, is a harbinger of what we will see this November." --Paul Rahe

Wonderful: Facebook moves into online gambling

I didn't think running an electronic gambling establishment (even for other countries) was legal in the U.S., but what do I know?

Facebook has launched a bingo game that uses real money, only for users over age 18, in the UK. The "Bingo & Slots Friendzy" app has 90 slot machine and bingo games that take real money, not Facebook Credits.

The move could be a money maker for the company as Facebook takes 30% of the revenue. UK-based Gamesys, the app developer, will take the other 70% of revenue. Certainly it seems a positive move given all the negative attention the company has recieved.

In true Facebook fashion, activity on the app will appear in users' timelines, but Facebook's age-gating and geo-location technology will restrict those posts from appearing to underage users and those outside the UK.

Kewl! And maybe the app will automatically update the player's status to read, "I've got a serious gambling problem... please arrange an intervention for me!"



Genius: California Considering Giving Free, Taxpayer-Funded Life Insurance to All State Employees... and Retirees!

What could possibly go wrong with this plan?

Here's how [California's Assembly Bill 2451] would work:

Firefighter Jones or police Officer Smith retires in 2012 at age 53. Twenty-five years later, Smith or Jones die of a heart attack. Although there is a presumption in current law that heart ailments in firefighters and cops are job-related, there had been no evidence of a heart condition for either retiree before the fatal attack. Neither Jones nor Smith filed workers' compensation claims. Neither retired on disability. Their deaths occurred well beyond the 4 1/2-years-after-injury statute of limitations that governs job-related death benefit eligibility today.

Nonetheless, under this bill their survivors could claim a death benefit worth a quarter of a million dollars at minimum.

This benefit would cover not just current firefighters, police officers, prison guards and other public safety workers but retirees as well. So, on the day AB 2451 becomes law, when any ex-firefighter dies of a heart attack at age 80 or cancer at age 90, his widow or children, or other relatives -- the list of eligible survivors is extensive -- becomes eligible for a benefit typically valued at between $250,000 and $300,000...

...This benefit would cover not just current firefighters, police officers, prison guards and other public safety workers but retirees as well. So, on the day AB 2451 becomes law, when any ex-firefighter dies of a heart attack at age 80 or cancer at age 90, his widow or children, or other relatives -- the list of eligible survivors is extensive -- becomes eligible for a benefit typically valued at between $250,000 and $300,000.

It's almost as if California's Democrat leaders are all racing each other to see who can bankrupt the state first.

Joke o' the Day: The Amish Farmer

Tom sends us today's winner.

Subject: Amish Farmer


An Amish farmer walking, notices a man drinking from his pond, with his hand.

The Amish man shouts: "Trink das wasser nicht. Die kuhen haben dahin gesheissen."

Which means: "Don't drink the water, the cows have pooped in it."


The man shouts back: "I'm from Chicago and just down here campaigning for Obama, I can't understand you. Please speak in English."

The Amish man says: "Use two hands, you'll get more."

Mexico's 9/11: Cartel Kingpin Says 3,000 Have Died As an Intentional Result of Operation Fast and Furious

We already knew that at least 300 Mexican nationals -- and two U.S. law enforcement officers -- were killed as a result of Eric Holder's insane gun-walking project known as Operation Fast and Furious. But a Mexican drug cartel chieftain says the real number is much higher:

A high-ranking Mexican drug cartel operative currently in U.S. custody is making startling allegations that the failed federal gun-walking operation known as “Fast and Furious” isn’t what you think it is.

It wasn’t about tracking guns, it was about supplying them — all part of an elaborate agreement between the U.S. government and Mexico’s powerful Sinaloa Cartel to take down rival cartels.

The explosive allegations are being made by Jesus Vicente Zambada-Niebla, known as the Sinaloa Cartel’s “logistics coordinator.” He was extradited to the Chicago last year to face federal drug charges... Zambada-Niebla is reportedly a close associate of Sinaloa Cartel kingpin Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman and the son of Ismael “Mayo” Zambada-Garcia, both of which remain fugitives, likely because of the deal made with the DEA, federal court documents allege...

"It is estimated that approximately 3,000 people were killed in Mexico as a result of ‘Operation Fast and Furious,’ including law enforcement officers in the state of Sinaloa, Mexico, the headquarters of the Sinaloa cartel. The Department of Justice’s leadership apparently saw this as an ingenious way of combating drug cartel activities.”

I really wonder how many people have to die for vintage media to express outrage at the lawless machinations of the Obama administration. Is it 30,000? 300,000? 3 million? Or 30 million?


They Told Us

They told us that our borders were "as secure as they've ever been".

They told us that taking trillions of dollars from the most productive citizens and giving it to those "who truly needed it" would cure poverty.

They told us that allowing law-abiding citizens to carry concealed weapons would turn our streets into rivers of blood.

They told us that giving home loans to those who couldn't afford them would make the American dream achievable for all.

They told us that paying into the Social Security "Trust Fund" would guarantee a comfortable retirement for everyone.

They told us that letting teachers unionize in public schools would help inner city students reach for the stars.

They told us that the federal government could run a guaranteed, affordable, and profitable health care program for seniors.

They told us that the new employment paradigm consisted of millions of "green jobs".

They told us that supporting immoral and criminal behavior wouldn't result in the breakdown of the two-parent family.

They told us that spending trillions on Stimulus programs would heal a damaged economy.

They told us that raising taxes on corporations and "the rich" would create more jobs.

They told us that intentionally restricting access to our own sources of energy would reduce dependence on foreign oil.

They told us that spreading unemployment benefits and food stamps far and wide would help the economy.

They told us that, despite other failed government health care programs, they could successfully take over the entire medical system.

They told us that their record-breaking borrowing could never result in a downgrade of the United States' AAA credit rating.

They told us that "the Constitution doesn't matter".

They told us that anyone who opposes their unconstitutional, un-American, reckless and failed policies are racists.

Well, I'm here to tell you:

Everything they told us was a lie.

Everything they told us was wrong.

Intentionally, diabolically, criminally wrong.

And if we don't vote out every Democrat politician -- at every level of government -- in 2012, this beautiful Republic, this magnificent country, this bastion of free enterprise and private property rights, this shining city on a hill... well, it will be finished.

QOTD: "No sudden Arab Spring will transform the Muslim Middle East. Uprisings can change governments but they cannot bring civilization. The Muslim world has access to Western learning, just as it had access to Indian, Roman and Greek learning. It made use of some of those ideas in a slapdash fashion just as it made use of Judaism, Christianity, Socialism and Democracy, in a similar fashion.

A primitive society confronted with an advanced civilization does not become civilized, it adopts some of the habits and facades of civilization in cargo cult fashion, it uses some of its tools, and hybridizes some of its ideas, but all this is done in pursuit of its existing goals. Everything that the Muslim Middle East has taken in from the civilized world has been used to pursue the same goals that it was pursuing a thousand years ago." --Daniel Greenfield

Tonight's Blog Posts Brought to You By the All-New, All-Exciting FannieCrat 3000 Luxury Sedan!

Every road is an on-ramp to fun with the world's only solar- and wind-powered automobile!

All new for 2012, General Ford Cerberus Motors is proud to present The FannieCrat 3000, the first automobile designed by the same members of Congress who brought you Fannie Mae and the housing crisis.


With 24 airbags -- both inside and outside the vehicle -- and an integrated cow- and deer-catcher, this is the most safe and humane car imaginable. And CAFE fuel standards are no problem because this luxury sedan sports three (count 'em, three) windwills and an extra-large solar-panel certain to keep you in the slow lane!

The Fanniecrat 3000 is a worthy successor to other government-designed vehicles like the Chevy Volt and the Soviet Union's classic Volga!

So jump on your bicycle right now and pedal on down to your city's GFCM dealer to see this phenomenal new vehicle. Pre-orders are available and the federal waiting list is down to 24 months, so act now!

And remember, all GFCM vehicles are guaranteed to be compatible with Magic Solar Energy Beans, the amazing fuel source designed by Democrats and due shortly after the 2012 election!



Please make sure that you are sitting down and that you have taken your blood pressure medication before viewing this chart

Don't say I didn't warn you.

The Senate Budget Committee Republican staff under Ranking Member Jeff Sessions [R-AL] on Wednesday released this depressing chart:


Are you serious? Over 110,000,000* in the U.S. are currently receiving some form of government welfare?

..."[S]ince 2000 Medicaid has increased from 34 million people to 54 million in 2011 and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, or food stamps) from 17 million to 45 million in 2011,” according to a statement released on Wednesday by Sen. Sessions’ office... >But here’s our favorite part: “Spending on food stamps alone is projected to reach nearly $800 billion over the next decade.”...

..."These figures include not only citizens, but non-citizens as well. For instance, USDA has acknowledged a formal partnership with Mexico to boost food stamp enrollment amongst non-citizens, migrant workers and foreign nationals. In a ‘radio novela’ USDA even depicted an individual who resisted food stamp enrollment (saying her husband earned enough to take care of them) but who was successfully pressured into enrollment.

Yep. Non-citizens enrolled in the Mexico-U.S. food stamp program.

While gut-wrenching, this graph represents a perfect illustration of the Obama administration -- or should we call it the Cloward-Piven administration?

President Obama is at war with the American taxpayer... and future generations.

Pass it on. Because this madness must end in November. Or the Republic will.

Creepy, Omnipresent Obama Logo Even Hidden Deep Inside the President's Campaign Websites

You've seen the ubiquitous Obama logo -- sometimes dubbed "The Eye of Sauron" by certain irreverent wags -- appear on everything from airplanes to leather seat cushions. The mark is designed to brand Mr. Obama, to establish an iconography around the man that symbolizes, well, not hope and change any longer, but perhaps power and inevitability

And just when you thought you'd seen it all, it appears that the Obama fundraising website (http://www.barackobama.com/plans/budget, no hyperlink, intentionally) includes hidden logos, buried inside the markup -- or HTML -- used to construct the website. Performing a View >> Source on the Obama website reveals the following:


There is only one reason that a web designer would include the extra (and technically useless) markup: to further establish Obama's bizarre cult of personality.


The omnipresent logo is downright creepy and it smacks of something, at best, un-American and, at worst, totalitarian.

Remember in November.

QOTD: "No American has any idea whether recess appointments, executive privilege, executive orders, or filibusters are to be considered good, bad, or indifferent, since Senator/President Obama has damned and embraced them all. I vaguely remember that at one time Guantanamo, renditions, tribunals, and preventive detention were either of no value or unconstitutional, and trying Khalid Sheikh Mohammed in a civilian court and prosecuting CIA agents for supposedly too harsh interrogations were good. But that was all more than three years in the past, and hundreds of “Make no mistake about it”s and “Let me be perfectly clear”s ago.

I recall that there were once admonitions that President Obama could not by fiat enact amnesty or special programs for African-Americans based on race, and that he could not come out unequivocally for gay marriage. But who knows, since someone did enact amnesty, set up a special bureau for African-American education, and use support for gay marriage as a wedge issue in the 2012 campaign." --Victor Davis Hanson

Ruh Roh: Little More Than a Year Remains Until the the Polar Ice Caps Melt Completely

In 2008, while speaking at a museum in Germany, Nobel Prize-winner Al Gore made yet another sales pitch for Global Warming™. You know, that's the problem where humans are spewing too much toxic Carbon Dioxide into the atmosphere. And that's the same problem that can only be solved by purchasing roughly $250 billion in "carbon offsets", preferrably from companies Al Gore is involved with.

Gore stated that because of man's outrageous use of Carbon Dioxide -- you may remember the molecule from a little-known process called "photosynthesis" -- the entire Polar Ice Cap will have melted by 2013. Seriously, he said that.

Gore's statement, in part, was: "The entire polar icecap [will be] gone... ...in five years, the period in which it is now expected to disappear."

You may remember that Gore's movie, An Inconvenient Truth, depicted rising ocean levels due to ice melt. And Gore predicted our shores will flood and coastal cities would sink beneath the water, thereby causing millions of homeless to relocate to Red States. In fact, the movie posits that melting ice could release enough water to cause a 20-foot rise in sea level "in the near future."

Pity that Gore's scientific knowledge is just a couple of notches below that of Britney Spears. Because even Brit-Brit knows that the loss of sea ice by itself can't contribute to a rise in sea levels, just as an ice cube that melts in a glass of water doesn't raise the level.

And, by the way, weren't we warned all this was going to happen by, say, 2010? I guess maybe it took a rain-check and now it's 2013. Put in simple terms for the liberals progressives reading along (moving their lips, I'm sure), global warming appears to be nothing less than a UN-backed bunko scam that aims to regulate and control the U.S. economy.

But just in case, I've created a Polar Ice-Cap Countdown Clock:


If the North Pole really does melt, I'm hoping Santa and his elves take over one of Gore's three mansions. Maybe the one in Nashville that consumes 20 times the average American household's electricity. At least the little toy-makers will be producing something useful.

Yes, Al, you hack. I remember these predictions. I'm like an elephant. I don't forget your B.S.
