You know who the real losers today are?  If you guessed people on the Right who didn’t sellout any semblance of principle by signing on to the most expensive entitlement program in human history chances are you’re already auditioning for a communications job for Obama:

A huge part of the blame for today’s disaster attaches to conservatives and Republicans ourselves (ed. – what’s this “ourselves” shit, kimosabe?).

At the beginning of this process we made a strategic decision: unlike, say, Democrats in 2001 when President Bush proposed his first tax cut, we would make no deal with the administration. No negotiations, no compromise, nothing. We were going for all the marbles. This would be Obama’s Waterloo – just as healthcare was Clinton’s in 1994.

This time, when we went for all the marbles, we ended with none.

…

Could a deal have been reached? Who knows? But we do know that the gap between this plan and traditional Republican ideas is not very big. The Obama plan has a broad family resemblance to Mitt Romney’s Massachusetts plan.

Frum’s shameful joy overlooks the usual gaggle of weak-kneed, northeastern liberal Republicans and Lispy Graham who are quick to roll over and slap an asscheek in pursuit of some one-way jackhammer bipartisanship.

That’s certainly one way to describe a bill so odious that the President had to shove a feeding tube down his own party’s throat filled with dirty Chicago politics in pursuit of an anorexic, one vote win.  Really.  He had to bribe his own people to vote for the bill they wrote alone in secret.

Everybody start listening to that Frum guy.  And rent Stalag 17 while you’re at it.

The entire leftwing media complex that’s been calling you a teabagging faggot for the past year or so is suddenly incensed that one stray voice  in a crowd of thousands may have called an actual faggot “a faggot”:

A CNN producer overheard the word “faggot” yelled at Frank several times in the lobby of the Longworth building. Frank said he heard someone yell “homo” at him.

So you’re saying that calling someone a “faggot” is now a slur but when you use it it’s okay because you’re using a euphemism?

If that were true and these TEA Party protests were really just an excuse for people who a hate a black president to express themselves under the guise of anti-taxes / anti-socialist takeovers that would make it acceptable as well, correct?

When John Edwards was having his well-known affair, that the press dutifully covered-up, I used to always hear that no one had any video evidence to support the charges so he was innocent until we had video and audio to support such slanderous accusations.  All accusations must be witnessed, notarized and apostilled.  And then The National Enquirer did.

Take Clyburn’s well publicized claim from yesterday that a “chorus” of protesters were calling him a “nigger”.

I led the first demonstrations in South Carolina, the sit ins… And quite frankly I heard some things today I have not heard since that day. I heard people saying things that I have not heard since March 15, 1960 when I was marching to try and get off the back of the bus.“

Yet now it’s Clyburn who is ordering hundreds of millions of people to the back of the bus while the government turns it’s hoses of slander in the mainstream press on protesters to accuse them of being racists and faggots.  It’s tragic that we can measure how far we’ve come as a society in irony.

The real Faux News is on the Left.  Here’s the video evidence of Clyburn walking by the protesters who he said were screaming nigger at him “in chorus” no less.

Expect Clyburn to hang a noose in the men’s room later today before running in front of the cameras to decry the acrid atmosphere in Washington caused by the protesters.

What that protest needs is everyone locking arms and singing “We Shall Overcome” to Mr. Clyburn.

Absent from the discussion on The Ugly Tone ™ of protests in Washington was any mention of Cindy Shitcan and Ralph Nader’s protesting of the victory in Iraq where they symbolically murdered Dick Cheney in the streets:

The protest drew a smaller crowd than the tens of thousands who marched in 2006 and 2007.

Protesters stopped at the offices of military contractor Halliburton — where they tore apart an effigy of former Vice President and Halliburton Chief Executive Dick Cheney — the Mortgage Bankers Association and The Washington Post offices.

When confronted with Obama’s continued War For Oil in Iraq, elevation of hostilities in Afghanistan, and love of killing civilians with drone attacks in Pakistan, fellow moonbats found him to have an acceptable amount of blood on his hands:

“He’s kept Guantanamo open, he’s continued to use indefinite detention,” Nader said. The only real difference, he said, is that “Obama’s speeches are better.”

Others were more conciliatory toward Obama. Shirley Allan of Silver Spring, Md., carried a sign that read, “President Obama We love you but we need to tell you! Your hands are getting bloody!! Stop it now.”

Allan thought it was going too far to call Obama a war criminal but said she is deeply disappointed that the conflicts are continuing.

“He has to know it’s unacceptable,” Allan said. “I am absolutely disappointed.”

Again, their condemnation is not so much selective as it is transparent in political convenience.

His hands are “getting bloody” from wars.  If Shirley would kindly notice, his hands were already bloody from a lifetime of being wrist deep in dead babies.

From Meet The Press this morning.  You ain’t from around here is ya?

Jan. 11, 2010:  “I am a New Yorker, I am a New Yorker, I am a New Yorker.”

NASA Ordered To Let Mohammed Atta Fly The Space Shuttle.

Yea.  Here’s another great idea from Teh Smartest President Ever:

NASA Administrator Charlie Bolden said Tuesday that President Barack Obama has asked him to “find ways to reach out to dominantly Muslim countries” as the White House pushes the space agency to become a tool of international diplomacy.

“In addition to the nations that most of you usually hear about when you think about the International Space Station, we now have expanded our efforts to reach out to non-traditional partners,” said Bolden, speaking to a lecture hall of young engineering students.

Your President is your new Travel Agent Terrorist.

“Non-traditional partners” meaning partners who contribute absolutely nothing to a mission and who do not want to come back alive.  Viewing our technological advances as potential weapons to use against us is also a plus.

When your “partner” starts yelling Allahu Akbar and storms the cockpit just know that we did everything we could to strip-search our own astronauts so that our intrepid Islamofascists would never tell the space aliens that we racially profiled them.

Is this post really hyperbole?  Nah.  Not when your Prez just named a terrorist sympathizing scumbag as your new ambassador to the Muslim world.  Once again highlighting that he’s more in tune with his Hussein than his Barack or his Obama.

Feel safe knowing that the Department of Homeland Security has everything under control from their strategic command post monitoring the comments section at the Huffin’ Glue Post:

As the winter Olympics begin, the Department of Homeland Security has disclosed that it will be monitoring the comments and posts on websites and social media like Twitter for information on possible terror threats. Among the sites listed in a privacy impact statement filed Friday afternoon by DHS are the Drudge Report, the Huffington Post, Twitter, Google and this web site, the Blotter.

Don’t you feel safer already knowing that instead of monitoring phone calls from Yemen to Dearborn, Michigan or that sketchy guy from Pakistan sitting in 26D who keeps trying to set his Hanes on fire that your witty and insightful comment on Sarah Palin writing notes on her hand has the attention of Janet Reno’s butch cousin.

Harold or Clayton???  I get these two so confused.

There are so many striking similarities.Quick, Prudence.  Tell Jasper to get the pick-up truck helicopter ready.  Brother Harold’s going to make white liberals in New York feel comfortable with him one egg-white garden omelet at a time.

Who doesn’t love an underdog?  Year in and year out for decades the lowly Aints have struggled to even make it to a playoff but now they’re in The Big Game.  Are we supposed to be surprised when they can’t act like they’ve been there before?

NEW ORLEANS – A student at a Maurepas school was sent home by the principal for refusing to take off an Indianapolis Colts jersey, according to a statement from the American Civil Liberties Union.

“(T)he Principal of Maurepas High School, which had declared that students could wear jerseys in support of the New Orleans Saints, punished a student for wearing a jersey in support of the Indianapolis Colts,” said ACLU Executive Director Margie Esman in an e-mail.

“The student, who had lived most of his life in Indianapolis and has an outstanding academic record, was called out of class and told that he was not allowed to wear that shirt. When he refused to change his shirt, the principal sent him home.”

We’re just talking about one out-of-control, tinpot fascist here – right?  A rogue principal whose school spirit borders on North Korean nationalism.  But then you delve into the comments section and see how far some people are willing to go to support his actions.  Running the gamut from calling for permanent expulsion of the student, to veiled personal threats of the student because “they know who he is”, to calling for arresting his parents with a few “whodats” peppered inbetween.   Rules are rules!

Maurepas High Valedictorian, Lootie: Just following the rules!

It’s easy to think some people are engaging in a bit of pre-Super Bowl hyperbole but since most Saints fans can’t spell “hyperbole” I dismissed that out of hand.  They’ve expelled one of the brighter students at their school for engaging in a harmless bit of free expression because he didn’t read the DRESS CODE.  This criticism coming from people who couldn’t watch a weather forecast for an entire week warning them to get out of the way of a CAT-5 hurricane the size of Germany.

Dumbasses don’t follow rules.

Rule #1:  Big Hurricane = Move.

But seriously, folks – Go Colts!

And if by some miracle of animal sacrifice and voodoo magic New Orleans is able to win then the police will need to be on standby.

To prevent Houston from being burned to the ground.

That is all.

Artist’s Rendering: Ass not really that dark.

Projection ain’t just for movie theaters, folks. As Cranky pointed out the selective outrage that always seems to effect national Democrats, the revelations that Mark Halperin and John Heilemann’s book “Game Change” is threatening to unleash is bound to give us a sequel to America’s Historic Conversation On Race that we all need to have so much:

–In lobbying the late Sen. Edward Kennedy to endorse his wife, former President Clinton angered the liberal icon by belittling Obama. Telling a friend about the conversation, Kennedy recalled Clinton had said “a few years ago, this guy would have been getting us coffee,” the authors paraphrase.

At least he didn’t say anything about Obama being the half and half for his coffee. These arbiters of racial sensitivity. And at least he didn’t say anything about shining his shoes or then Chuckles McPonytail would be obligated to defend him.

It’s this type of black-on-black violence, the First Black President and the Second One, engaged in these rhetorical drive-bys by the Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X of our times that makes me worry about the future of our Idiocracy. A real tempest in a demitasse.

–Reid said Obama could fare well nationally as an African-American candidate because he was “light-skinned” and didn’t speak with a “Negro dialect unless he wanted to have one.” Saturday, the majority leader said he had used “poor choice of words” and called Obama to apologize; the White House issued a statement indicating that the president had forgiven Reid.

Now everybody’s making ado about the “light-skinned” and “Negro dialect” mentions but I don’t see anyone talking about the last part of it – the “unless he wanted to have one” comment. That’s the part that needs fleshing out. Why would such an erudite, by all appearances “clean” and well-scrubbed politician want to speak in some ghettofied dialect? Presumably, Reid is not referring to an African dialect but the one that Al Gore and Hillary Clinton usually devolve into – the Stepin Fetchit-ism from the pulpits of black churches.

That’s the explanation I want. When does Reid think that it is beneficial for Obama to get ghetto? Maybe when he’s going to shame someone on the other side for an innocuous remark?

Not to worry, folks. Not to worry. Once he knew the story was going to break (read: yesterday), Dingy Harry immediately called to apologize and kiss Obama’s light-skinned ass. All that’s left is for him to kiss it and for the media to ignore this story by tomorrow morning.

Nothing fosters racial conciliation more than a bigot and a race huckster coming together in the name of stealing all your money.

Thank God For Taxation Without Representation Update:  Attention, all you Washington, D.C. vacationers.  If you think you can seize on Harry Reid’s comments and find a friend in the black community then you better recognize:

D.C. Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton is warning Republicans against trying to make hay out of Harry Reid’s comments about Barack Obama’s skin color and lack of a “Negro dialect.”  The nonvoting member of Congress said Reid’s opponents “will not find a welcome mat in the black community” if they try to seize on his remarks.

Norton, a black woman who represents one of the most heavily African-American cities in the country, said Reid will enjoy support from the black community because he has “earned it with long support of civil rights and many other issues that matter most to African-Americans.”

So don’t wonder where the mat is if you end up in the D.C. area.  You won’t be able to find it. Some crazy woman stole it and is running around with it to protect a man who can appreciate the finer points of her negro dialect that she’s taking out on you.

He earned that right.

After all, it’s not like he admitted that he belonged to the Crips and murdered somebody on a golf course because they were wearing the wrong color or anything – did he? Oh, wait:

A gang member who told police he killed a stranger to gain rank in the group is back on the streets, detectives said.

The average bond for someone charged with first-degree murder who confesses is about $125,000. If the person is a danger to the community or a flight risk, $500,000 is common.

Police said Christian Walters is both of those, but all he needed was $7,500 to get out of prison for Christmas.

Walters said he’s a member of the Crips and that when he saw Dontrell McFadden with a red bandanna in his pocket near the Nashboro Village Golf Course in October, he felt disrespected.

After a brief meeting with his friends, he returned and fatally shot McFadden, said police.

The Democrat, Judge “Three Card” Monte Watkins is offering to let (see update at bottom) a self-confessed murderer who is a flight risk back out on the street for a mere $7,500.  Did it ever occur to Your Honor that this time of year a lot of people are wearing Red and Green and given Walters’ admitted sensitivity to attire reflecting colors across a certain end of the spectrum that this might not be the right moment to expose him to such onslaughts?  It’s disrepectful!  And you know what he does when he feels disrespected.

For a flight risk, you don’t have to set bail at all. This was purely elective and more than hard to believe that it wasn’t intentional.  As WSMV correctly notes, the standard bail for first degree homicide is $100,000.00 to $500,000.00 much less $75k.

For all you Bloods and Gangster Disciples out there, now you know what color bandana at least one judge wears under his robe.

Watkins was unable to be reached Wednesday because of the holiday. Criminal court judges do not comment on their rulings under any circumstances.

Don’t worry, Judge.  Rest up them pipes.  You’ll have all the time in the world to explain at your impeachment hearing.

CONFUSING UPDATE: Channel 4 is updating the page (linked to above) to now say that Walters is still in jail but that he can still make bond and get out.  I cut-and-pasted directly above but now the page is saying otherwise.  Guess I’ll just screenshot this one from here on out.  The first sentence now reads:

A gang member who told police he killed a stranger to gain rank in the group, has not posted bond yet, detectives said.

Slight difference.  But you can bet Auntie Shirley’s Buick that Momma’s coaxing her out of the keys for a foot race to TitleMax.  Hence the popular Mother-of-the-Year refrain:  My baby ain’t never hurt nobody!

Walters, who once disappeared for 10 days and is not a Tennessee native, told detectives he was worried that he didn’t kill McFadden.

After talking to the killer’s mom, Judge Monte Watkins set bond at $75,000, meaning the family just needed $7,500 — 10 percent of bond — to set him free.

Hopefully, the homies will have trouble selling half a bird of cocaine this close to Christmas to get Walters out before he turns state’s evidence and rolls on everyone anybody with any sense in Metro Government (read:  no one) can slap some into Three Card.

Did you hear the one about all U.S. oil companies being frozen out of the bidding on Iraqi oil reserves and them being awarded to Russia and China thus rewarding the accomplices who helped Saddam Hussein break every UN sanction placed on him while enslaving the country?

Those who claim that the U.S. invaded Iraq in 2003 to get control of the country’s giant oil reserves will be left scratching their heads by the results of last weekend’s auction of Iraqi oil contracts: Not a single U.S. company secured a deal in the auction of contracts that will shape the Iraqi oil industry for the next couple of decades. Two of the most lucrative of the multi-billion-dollar oil contracts went to two countries which bitterly opposed the U.S. invasion – Russia and China – while even Total Oil of France, which led the charge to deny international approval for the war at the U.N. Security Council in 2003, won a bigger stake than the Americans in the most recent auction.

How could this happen one might incredulously ask.  Why, why, why?  Look to the usual suspects and their actions from a year ago:

Why, after all the assistance we’ve given to Iraq over the past five years, was the first major Iraqi oil deal signed with China and not with an American or even a western company? The answer is, in part, because three Democratic senators intervened in Iraqi domestic politics earlier this year to prevent Iraq from signing short-term agreements with Exxon Mobil, Shell, Total, Chevron, and BP.

… Senators Chuck Schumer, John Kerry, and Claire McCaskill wrote a letter to Secretary of State Rice asking her “to persuade the GOI [Government of Iraq] to refrain from signing contracts with multinational oil companies until a hydrocarbon law is in effect in Iraq.” The Bush administration wisely refused to do so, but the resulting media hooraw in Iraq led to the cancellation of the contracts, and helps to explain why Iraq is doing oil deals instead with China.

Their release (available along with their letter to Secretary Rice at the New York Observer quoted Senator McCaskill as follows: “‘It’s bad enough that we have no-bid contracts being awarded for work in Iraq. It’s bad enough that the big oil companies continue to receive government handouts while they post record breaking profits. But now the most profitable companies in the universe–America’s biggest oil companies–stand to reap the rewards of this no-bid contract on top of it all,’ McCaskill said. ‘It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to connect these dots–big oil is running Washington and now they’re running Baghdad. There is no reason under the sun not to halt these agreements until we get revenue sharing in place,’ McCaskill said.

Yea, those multi-national American oil companies are running Baghdad aren’t they?  China, Russia and the French are getting the run of the Iraqi roost because Democrats preferred that the oil go to the people who undermined the effort to free their people every inch of the way rather than an American company to make a profit.  Remember that when they speak of “The perfect becoming the enemy of the good.”

Especially when it’s coming from the relentless enemies of the good.

A guy who is willing to crackdown on anyone who catches him smoking a cigarette (and consequently anyone who shares his habit) will go to Stalinist lengths over anything important.

It’s hardly the image of transparency the Obama administration wants to project: A workshop on government openness is closed to the public.

These guys make Cheney look like Chatty Cathy.  Cheney didn’t invoke the “separation of powers” clause over gate-crashers.

Then again, who needs openness and government transparency when you’ve got hope and an empty glass of Kool-Aid?  It’s the kind of blind faith only those godbothering Christophiles engage in.  Or maybe those Hot Earthers.

This is just disgusting but is hardly a shock considering that your President was raised by a sexual deviant.

Safe Schools Czar Kevin Jennings was the founder, and for many years, Executive Director of an organization called the Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network (GLSEN). GLSEN started essentially as Jennings’ personal project and grew to become the culmination of his life’s work. And he was chosen by President Obama to be the nation’s Safe Schools Czar primarily because he had founded and led GLSEN (scroll for bio).

I’m not going to re-post the excerpts from the stories that Ped-O-bama’s  “Safe Schools” Czar has suggested for your kids to read in that public school they force them into that this gay radical is now in charge of.  Check it out for yourself.  It’s like the Yellow Pages for Pedos.  Reacharound and touch someone.

The books his group recommends for 5 year old’s to 10 year old’s aren’t nearly as veiled as you might think. The Boy Who Cried Fabulous, Marvin Redpost:  Is He A Girl? , and who could forget that timeless fable Uncle What-Is-It Is Coming To Visit!

There are dozens more.  Of course, you can see Obama reading Uncle What-Is-It Is Coming To Visit when the plane hits the tower not that there’s anything wrong with that.  Unless you happen to be the parent of a kid in that classroom who doesn’t think it’s the job of your 22 year old graduate teaching assistant to lecture your son or daughter on the virtues of rock hard tranny cock.

A far cry from the people who want to ban Huck Finn or Lord of the Flies.

So this is the Gay Agenda I’ve always heard about in your K-6 classroom.

This is way worse than Van Jones.  “Safe Schools” Czar, indeed.  Safe for NAMBLA.

And once again begs the question, “Does this dumbo-earred mofo know anybody who isn’t a frickin’ whackjob?”

It’s a subject open for debate as to what role schools should play in educating young adults about aspects of sexuality but if people actually knew what Obama’s appointee would like for your kids to be exposed to then there would be a full-scale riot.

Truth be told, I’m pretty open on the subject of gay adoption and couldn’t really care less about gay marriage but this is so far out of bounds that it demands immediate Congressional hearings.  There is no way this guy got appointed without them knowing where he came from or what he was about.

Change that you can deceive in.  Hope you aren’t paying attention.

Amid unimaginable and unprecedented deficit spending in The Worst Economy Since The Great Depression ™, one Barack Hussein Obama lets the US taxpayers feed and pamper several hundred multimillionaire Hollyweird bigshots while his loyalist minions contemplate yet another tax on the middle class to pay for the war we were already paying for in the first place. Headed by a Ways and Means Committee Chairman who should be indicted for tax evasion no less.

“We’re not trying to insult anybody. We’re just trying to keep in the forefront what the financial costs are,” House Appropriations Committee Chairman Dave Obey (D-Wis.) told POLITICO.

He says with a straight face after voting to quadruple the current deficit with one bill and claiming that it won’t cost you a thin dime.

Is there anything this government does that we don’t already pay for? They want to tax you harder for a war they have no intention of winning.

Sacrifice your Trillion dollar pet projects and bunk science boondoggles to pay for your War of Necessity? Hells no.

Praise the Hague and pass the Arugula.

********************************************************************
Meanwhile, in another part of the world, The Men who caught the mutilator behind the Fallujah Massacre are being court-martialed because the terrorist had an owie on his widdle wip.

The three, all members of the Navy’s elite commando unit, have refused non-judicial punishment — called an admiral’s mast — and have requested a trial by court-martial.

Ahmed Hashim Abed, whom the military code-named “Objective Amber,” told investigators he was punched by his captors — and he had the bloody lip to prove it.

The inmates are truly running the asylum. We need another tax to fund the criminal prosecution of our own soldiers and to baby the madmen who mutilate their corpses (and hang them from bridges) while their Commander-in-Chief slobs knobs with the Hollywood directors who portray our troops as borderline lunatics waiting to snap.

Were that it true…

From the Dept. of Unfortunate Headlines at The Guardian:

“Somali pirates beaten off in second attack on Maersk Alabama”

Though I’m certain it caught them off guard I’d hope that’s not ‘Plan A’.

It’s not too far fetched.  After all, his old law firm was representing at least 17 Gitmo detainees earlier this year.  What?  Is Lynne Stewart not available?  She is out of jail after all and now celebrated on the college talk circuit.

The last time New York put on a trial for the terrorists, the Blind Sheik’s attorney was convicted of conspiracy to provide material support that directly led to the deaths of hundreds:

One of the most incendiary communications was a message Stewart herself gave to the Reuters news service in June 2000 in which the sheikh announced his withdrawal of support for a cease-fire between the Egyptian Islamic Group and the Egyptian government.[12] The truce had been in place since 1997, just after his followers in Egypt had opened fire on tourists at the Temple of Hatshepsut in Luxor, killing 58 foreigners and 4 Egyptians.[13] Subsequently, high-casualty Islamist terrorism resumed in Egypt on October 7, 2004, with a series of bombings that killed 34 in and around the Egyptian Sinai resort of Taba. On July 23, 2005, three bombs exploded in the Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh, killing at least 64.

Government investigators searching Stewart’s law offices found a draft of the sheikh’s fatwa that bin Laden later said inspired him.[14] In it, Abdel Rahman enjoined his fellow Muslims everywhere to kill Americans, even children, “to treat them with brutality,” and to “drown their ships, shoot down their airplanes, kill them on earth, in the sea or in the sky, kill them everywhere you find them” in order to obtain his release from U.S. prison.[15]
[...]
In May of 2000, according to the prosecution, tapes indicate that Yousry told the sheikh and Stewart that the Abu Sayyaf group had kidnapped tourists in the Philippines and was threatening to kill them if the sheikh and Ramzi Yousef were not released. Stewart commented, “Good for them.”

All while the Blind Sheik’s show trial was being held in New York. “How could he have been responsible when he was locked up in jail all night?”, as the Joker might ask.

“Bottom line is we have had terrorists housed in New York before,” Mr. Schumer said.

As time will tell, we will see that he will be prosecuting the United States and the previous administration and not the men who attacked this country on September 11th.

In that, the terrorists won.  They kill us and we give them an attorney, a culturally sensitive meal three times a day and a taxpayer supplied prayer rug to wish for our deaths.

They won our national election in November 2008 and now they are just rubbing it in.

This decision befits President Obama’s rushed and misguided announcement on his second day in office that he would close Gitmo within a year. This was before the Administration had thought through what to do with the 215 prisoners there, though it did win him applause in Europe and on the American left. Yesterday’s decision rids Gitmo of these meddlesome detainee cases in order to speed up this entirely political shutdown.

I know I’ve said it before.  Back before the election I was speaking with a colleague about how you can’t worry about politics so much and that once in a great while that you have to let go and put your faith in the hands of the American people to do the right thing.

Again, boy was I wrong.   America voted to lose and got exactly what it wanted.

Germany celebrated the 20th Anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall last night.  Children today may remember that event as the joyful mutual end of years smart diplomacy whereby US hegemony was imposed at the barrel of a gun on native East German peoples who prospered during the Soviet Golden Age.

In actuality, it stemmed from peace through strength and not compromising basic American principles coupled with a President willing to call Evil by it’s name to it’s face.  In honor of the collapse of the Soviets who cordoned off half of Europe and consigned millions to death, prison and poverty, Barack Obama stood them up so he could work in a few rounds of golf:

Angela Merkel, Germany’s first chancellor from the former communist East, recalled the euphoria in an address last week to the U.S. Congress.

“Where there was once only a dark wall, a door suddenly opened and we all walked through it: onto the streets, into the churches, across the borders,” Merkel said. “Everyone was given the chance to build something new, to make a difference, to venture a new beginning.”

That’s what you call real “hope and change”.

When reached for comment, President Icarus responded:

“We are now moving towards the 20th anniversary of the Berlin Wall coming down and Germany being reunified after so many painful years,” Obama said. “And this is a special moment for Chancellor Merkel, as somebody who grew up in East Germany, who understands what it’s like to be under the shadow of a dictatorial regime, and to see how freedom has bloomed in Germany, how it has become the centerpiece for a extraordinarily strong European Union.”

So many “painful years”.  Like living with arthritis.  The only good thing about German reunification is it began to pave the path for One World Government.  That was what that wall falling was all about.

Trading one dictatorial regime of paranoid murderers to surrender your hard fought sovereignty to a bunch of foreign bureaucrats.

That wall represented The Cold War.  Hundreds of billions spent on a strong military so that tens of millions wouldn’t have to die in a Hot War.  Decades of working and fighting through proxies so that an expansive Soviet regime couldn’t get a foothold in Southeast Asia as well as Central America.

It’s understandable that Barack Hussein Obama would not want to take part in the celebration of the defeat and rejection of his Communist ideals and heroes while his job of building the next wall is in progress.

If this healthcare bill were a sweet, innocent little cherub I would saw it’s head off and rub the stem-cell rich blood on my face with the zeal of your average Emily’s List supporter:

We developed this chart based on Nancy Pelosi’s new health care plan….The new chart shows more than 90 of these new mandates, commissions and agencies.   The true number is well over 100, we simply ran out of space.

In terms of sheer bureaucracy, if the IRS and Medicare had a baby, it would look like this. And the question is how is that going to make our health care more affordable?

Mmmm, dead baby bill.  The only thing better than killing it yourself is making the person who doesn’t believe you should be doing it in the first place pay for it.

Our nation’s unwanted, single parent $3.4 trillion dollar punishment for a one night stand back in November of last year.

Even the worthless Catholic bishops’ league is on board.  Don’t they realize how this is going to impact the altar boy harvest in a few years?  Thus, dwindling their already diminished supply of fresh molestables.

You guys just aren’t thinking this through.

I’m not going to link to the ongoing boob-ha-ha over a certain RINO, former Presidential candidate, full-time loser’s daughter who’s getting cheap T(w)itter hits over a push up-bra that’s challenging our meager bandwidth but I will say this…

Thank you again for losing, J-Mac.  People on the Right really needed to go from the Bush twins to having a President’s daughter being our first national camwhore.

When she starts jilling off for a $50 paypal contribution to PETA, please wake me.

When she starts delivering her thoughts on a public healthcare option over the loudspeaker from the BangBus you might get my attention.

It’s not like we can’t ignore her and get either one of those in the next 6 months.  Meghan McCain (R-DVDA).

Jesus Christ, people.  It’s freaking 2009.  Haven’t you ever heard of YouPorn?

She sez, “Don’t call me a slut!” to which what other way can one respond than “well, don’t be a slut.”

On one hand, she wants to bill herself as the new face and ass of The New Right.  Not exactly a bastion of freewheeling  barsexuality.  On the other hand, she wants everybody to be holding a soiled sock.

Sorry Sugartits, but your message control-fu needs more work.

And by “me”, I mean this particularly thick-cut of Sully Burger (extra ham):

There is a strange quality to Barack Obama’s pragmatism. It can look like dilly-dallying, weakness, indecisiveness. But although he may seem weak at times, one of the words most applicable to him is something else entirely: ruthless. Beneath the crisp suit and easy smile there is a core of strategic steel.

Correction:  You bring the meat, he’ll bring the buns.

That’s right.  Beneath the veneer of weakness, as one might describe Obama’s prostrate behavior to dictators the world over, is a rigid and pulsing resolve that penetrates even the darkest cavities of Teh Excitable One’s skepticism with jackhammer practicality.

Bizarr-0! Reality:

You live in one.

Most certainly, appearances can be deceiving though the majority of the time they are astonishingly accurate.

When Obama moves, he moves with chilling swiftness. The stimulus package went through Congress like a speeding bullet.

Agreed.  It is chilling.  Like when a chill wind blows through the First Amendment.  Like when his union thugs assault townhall protesters or his Diversity Czar’s comment on Hugo Chavez’s glorious revolution in shutting down an adversarial media.  Also, bullet-like in it’s “chilling swiftness”, oh recent converts to the unitary executive.

On Healthcare:

He (The Obamessiah) has fudged without cornering himself with a commitment he will be unable to fulfil, while leaving open the best practical option in the near future.

I think this line is a bit of projection regarding who is fudging themselves here.

Here’s what is perhaps the most perplexing bit of Sully’s Stockholm Syndrome:

My sense is that on the really divisive issues — accountability for torture, and gay rights, for example — he intends to wait for a second term. If that enrages his base — as it has — they have few other places to go. And he looks bipartisan by resisting them. At the same time, he has not explicitly ruled out bringing justice to the torturers or rights for the gays. He’s able to balance a commitment to the right thing with an almost chilling ability to restrain himself from doing it.

What bravery.  He knows the right thing to do but he’s able to refrain himself from doing it out of pragmatism. Like the bank robber who knows that it’s wrong enough to hide his face but still needs to pay the rent or the sociopath who is so morally flexible that they are void of principle so long as it gets them what they want at the moment.

If only his steely, stubble-faced commitment to do the right thing in Afghanistan could be executed were it not for his chilling ability to loosen himself from his own words and alleged deeply held convictions.

The shorter Sully: As Massah Obama does not feel obligated to placate for the gays until his inevitable 2nd term,  Sullivan’s more than happy to be his House Queer singing madrigals from deep inside some hidden closet in The White House.  You can almost hear this gay Gutenberg of Obama printing indulgences for His new Bible now:

John 14:2 – In my Father’s house are many closets; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a shoe rack for you to sit.

Sullivan’s ability to roll over and slap a cheek for his messianic mancrush is almost too much to bareback.  His main issues (gay marriage / gays in the military) that are central to his only relevance as a commentator are malleable enough that this self-styled and media appointed “conservative” is willing to abandon them out of some imagined leftwing success for his political boytoy.

I’d say he was in the tank were I not so sure that he’s already swirled the bowl and making mudpies in the sewer.

So, we took our eyes off Bin Laden in Tora Bora so we could get distracted by Iraq but it’s okay to take our eyes off Bin Laden so we can attack the moon.  A moon who, to my recollection, did not harbor weapons of mass destruction or was anyway involved with 9/11.

Attacking the moon only makes sense if the current administration believes that it was once our ally.  Then it makes complete sense as the current President would seek to ingratiate himself to the Middle East by making the moon a crescent permanently.

I’m a Titans fan.  I love derivatives of Buddy Ryan’s acolytes on defense.  But the Titans’ need a coach and they don’t have one.

Aside from firing everything that touched the University of Texas on the team, the alternative is firing everything in coach’s gear on the sideline – starting at the top.  Jeff “Joe Cool” has no passion for this game anymore.  He’ll sleepwalk through the recap tomorrow before the Monday Night game and stoically “take the blame” for another humiliating bowel movement on all 100 yards of LP field – televised nationally to raise awareness for Colorectal Cancer Month.

His sideline demeanor raises awareness of Anger Management because no matter what seems to happen he never gets angry,throws down a clipboard, grabs a player’s face mask or decks an Offensive Coordinator for calling a run up the middle 3rd and long.  Of course, this could turn into a masochistic endeavor if we include the coach who turns down a penalty against the opposing team giving you 3rd &  8 and another chance to gets  a 1st down versus taking 4 & 2 and kicking a field goal.

You’re not really here to win anymore are you, Coach? Or is run left, run up the middle, incomplete pass to the left, punt some brilliant new strategy whose time just hasn’t come yet?

You will be mine.

Paychecks need to be withheld because outside of the defense, the product that is being put on the field does not qualify as a football team.  Not that we’ll find that out from local sports talk radio who are so completely in the bag and starstruck that they are void of making any meaningful criticism.  You’re still doing my sitdown interview and we’re going to go play golf, right?

Nashville is such a polite city.  Nothing like the Chicagos or Philadelphias.

As our pampered, prideless, heartless multimillionaires can’t seem to catch the ball or run with it without dropping it, it’s time to up the stakes.

If Jeff Fisher cannot keep this almost all returning 13 & 3 team from last year from going 0-6 this year, he should be forced to shave his mustache on The Jeff Fisher Show next week.

We will keep his mustache in a fireproof safe, occasionally poke it with a stick and keep a bottle’s worth of Grecian Formula just out of reach to taunt it.

The military coup is almost underway so says one Bruce Ackerman in the Washington Post this morning. Take that NewsMax!  Gen. Stan McChrystal had the nerve of trying to get the President’s attention while he was off galavanting across Denmark to win crooked land deals for Chi-town’s Crony Communists and it’s a sign of the apocalypse.

Is there some other way, through our Dowdian tinted glasses that we’re supposed to interpret this post by Jim Crow in the Washington Post?

News of McChrystal’s position (ed. – against Obama undermining the Karzai government) had been leaked to Bob Woodward and was published in The Post early last week. But it is one thing for some nameless Washington insider to engage in a characteristic power play; quite another for McChrystal to pressure the president in public to adopt his strategy. This is a plain violation of the principle of civilian control.

Nevertheless, precedents have the habit of adding up. Unless McChrystal publicly recognizes that he has crossed the line, future generals will become even more aggressive in their efforts to browbeat presidents.

…

Though McChrystal may feel “crushed,” he should show more self-restraint. Indeed, his breach should provoke a broader discussion of the meaning of civilian control in the 21st century. It may well make sense for the Pentagon, or a special commission, to frame more concrete guidelines so that we may avoid future breaches.

The Pentagon should throw McChrystal in the brig, huh? Let the Black Panthers go, open the gates of Gitmo and prosecute the CIA agents but Heavens forbid! – a breach of protocol.  The thing is McChrystal is his guy!  He picked him.   This isn’t some leftist holdout fragging him like Richard Clarke did to Bush.  Some political holdover with an axe to grind sending out a vague e-mail saying some day, some time, a guy who attacked us before who he failed to pursue for 8 years is probably going to do it again eventually.

This is your guy – who you are ignoring – desperately trying to get your attention and that he needs some help and you’re off playing footsie with the OIC to raise money for political patrons.  More than likely because he’s doing it because loves his country and in no small part because you’re going to blame him when it all goes to shit after you dedicate all the resources necessary for him to lose the task you put in his charge.

Ackerman may be content to tell the Generals to sit down, shut up, ride in the back of the bus and drink at segregated water fountains but it’s time for the current resident in the White House to embrace the rich mosaic of diverse opinions when his own people are trying to prevent him from getting a lot of good people killed over political expediency.

All that’s left now is to uncover how long he’s been working for the Mossad.

A photograph of the Iranian president holding up his identity card during elections in March 2008 clearly shows his family has Jewish roots.

A close-up of the document reveals he was previously known as Sabourjian – a Jewish name meaning cloth weaver.

…

A London-based expert on Iranian Jewry said that “jian” ending to the name specifically showed the family had been practising Jews.

“He has changed his name for religious reasons, or at least his parents had,” said the Iranian-born Jew living in London. “Sabourjian is well known Jewish name in Iran.”

A spokesman for the Israeli embassy in London said it would not be drawn on Mr Ahmadinejad’s background. “It’s not something we’d talk about,” said Ron Gidor, a spokesman.

I wouldn’t want to take credit for that one either.

Forget working on that uranium li’l bubbie, you just dropped the bomb on us.  Black is white.  Coke is Pepsi.

Given his numerous comments about wiping Jews off the face of the map, why not start with himself?  Let’s see how committed you are to this idea.

In response to the bombshell news of NuttyJacket’s lineage, the Obama administration has severed all diplomatic ties and Zbigniew Brzezinski has recommended that fighter squadrons be mobilized immediately to put the Mad Jew down like the zionist running dog he is.

Pissing On My Parade:  So-called “Iranian expert” explains that in no way can Ahmadinejad have a drop of Jew-dom him.  After all, he’s a direct bloodline relative of the Prophet Mohammed!

Uhh, yea.  Right.  Next thing you’re going to tell me that the 12th imam is walking the Earth and that he’s talking to him because the End Is Nigh.

As I’ve said before, I don’t believe he is.  Others may feel differently.

His fathers were and he was unarguably schooled in Muslim-only environments early on.  His mother wasn’t.

Obama’s father, raised Muslim in Kenya, was, by the time he met Ann, “a confirmed atheist” who considered religion “mumbo jumbo,” writes Obama in “The Audacity of Hope.”

But by that same token, if you were raised in the U.S. chances are you could just easily say that you were raised in Christian-only environments and still not be a Christian.

For arguments sake, let’s say Obama is a Christian.  Admittedly, he has said that it came to him much later in life thanks to the liberating theologies of one particular Reverend whose name is escaping me at the moment.

Goddamnit I hate it when that happens. I mean “goddamnit” in the sense of “aww, hell I can’t remember who it was” and not in the “not God bless America, Goddamn America” sense colloquially deployed by some in front of children at a church if given to rhetorical, anti-American flourishes.

To me, he is like many others – a Christian of Convenience.  A chameleon who changes colors to blend in with the background of wherever he happened to be.  You aren’t winning any Senate seats in a major metropolitan city running as a proud atheist.  Or as he said:

Was it a conversion in the sense that he heard Jesus speaking to him in a moment after which nothing was the same? No. “It wasn’t an epiphany,” he says. “A bolt of lightning didn’t strike me and suddenly I said, ‘Aha!’ It was a more gradual process that traced back to those times that I had spent in New York wandering the streets or reading books, where I decided that the meaning I found in my life, the values that were most important to me, the sense of wonder that I had, the sense of tragedy that I had—all these things were captured in the Christian story.”

Sure, The Bible’s a good read.  It’s got action.  Drama.  The triumph of the human spirit.  In the greek tragedy sense, the hero suffers and the audience can enjoy watching his suffering because it allows them a form of escapism from their own problems.   But you can find that in every bargain rental bin at Blockbuster.  He did not have a “coming to Jesus” moment because he’s picking and choosing a cafeteria style faith.

I’ll have the eternal salvation, hold the limbo and extra beatitudes, por favor.

There’s a surefire way to determine if the non-churchgoing President is a Christian or not in one easy question if someone would dare to be so bold.  As he has a White House press corps that is available to ask silly questions every day I’m not sure that would ever happen.

Simply ask, “Do you believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God and that he is the way, the light, and that there is no other way to heaven except through Him?”

Any Christian should be able to deftly answer that question.  If you think the way to heaven can be achieved through Allah, Buddha, Stephen Colbert or the Flying Spaghetti Monster’s noodley appendages then you are not a Christian.

Now, as a politician, we can expect one to answer that question but put in a qualifier that they respect the beliefs of others and the Letter to the Danbury Baptists, separation of church and state, blah, blah, blah.  But if you don’t believe that Jesus Christ is the only way to get to heaven then you are not a Christian.  Or as Obama has also said:

“It is a precept of my Christian faith that my redemption comes through Christ, but I am also a big believer in the Golden Rule, which I think is an essential pillar not only of my faith but of my values and my ideals and my experience here on Earth. I’ve said this before, and I know this raises questions in the minds of some evangelicals. I do not believe that my mother, who never formally embraced Christianity as far as I know … I do not believe she went to hell.”

Well, good for you.  That technically answers the question.   Nobody ever wishes their mother went to hell.  Grandmothers may go under the bus but mothers shouldn’t go to hell.  Who doesn’t agree with that?  If you don’t believe you go to hell.  Them’s the rules.

Case closed.  I’m glad we were able to have this discussion.
