  • Bill Press: Obama’s poll numbers down because you’re whiney

    The main reason this administration has been such a complete failure is that it disregards it’s own missteps and deflects blame. So Bill Press, Liberal talk show host helps them out by declaring that “the American people are spoiled“;

    I think this says more about the American people than it does about President Obama. I think it just shows once again that the American people are spoiled. Basically, spoiled– as a people, we are too critical. We are quick to rush to judgment, we are too negative, we are too impatient. Especially impatient. We want it all solved yesterday, and if you don’t, I don’t care who you are — get out of the way.

    And again, basically spoiled. To the point where it makes me wonder if it’s even possible to govern today. I gotta tell you, I don’t think Abraham Lincoln — who certainly didn’t get everything right the first time — could govern today. I’m not sure Franklin Roosevelt could govern today, the way we are again. Just about like spoiled children. And it’s Americans, and it’s the media, and if we don’t get instant gratification, then screw you is basically our attitude.

    Yeah, we’re spoiled because we expect politicians who promise to fix the economy can’t, that politicians promise to fix oil leaks and can’t, politicians claim they’re raising taxes on the rich – and we discover suddenly that we’re all “the rich”. Just like spoiled children.

    Someone tell Press that if he doesn’t get his head out of Obama’s ass, he won’t be able to see that it’s me kicking his stupid ass.

  • HuffPo Poster Claims To Know More About War Than People Who Have Actually Been In One

    Nick Turse over at the Huffington Post knows a lot about war, even though he has never been in one. He knows so much in fact that he can tell people like Sebastain Junger who has actually in been in a war that they don’t know what they are really talking about.

    Turse has a lot of issues with Junger, which really boil down to the fact that Junger didn’t make an anti-war film (It should be pointed out that Turse wrote a book about why we should withdraw from Afghanistan). More below the fold…

  • Today’s deep DUmmy thoughts

    Claymore, demented person that he is, comes back from a recon of the Democratic Underground this morning with the latest gems;

    All of those people my age who are wistful for the “good old days” are just racists and misogynists who want to hang Negroes from trees and beat their wives and kids. Now my friend, Elmer, is Black and whenever we start slamming back brews, we both get wistful for the “good old days” – now I wonder what Elmer is thinking.

    Did you know that the Russian spy case is just a Bush phony set up to embarrass the President? DU knows it why don’t you?

    You folks who declare your right to own a firearm…well, that’s just racist codewords for overthrowing the current President and you should all be declared traitors and tossed in jail.

    Poor Al Gore and his unrequited 2d chakra.

    It was OK for the Kennedy tribe, what’s wrong with it now?

    Well at least they’re all over there instead of pestering real people. It seems to me that the folks at DU were a bit more coherent in the Bush years.

  • Stuart Smalley takes a nap

    You’d think that someone who has no legal training yet sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee would try to pay attention at his first confirmation hearing wouldn’t you?

    It’s not like being a Senator is hard work or anything. In fact, the only requirement for the job is to stay awake – like Robert Byrd did for the most part. Feel well represented, Minnesota?

  • That Milwaukee woman

    By the time I saw this video, it was so old that even Drudge had linked to it, and I thought you guys wouldn’t be much interested in it and I try to bring you guys fresh new stuff. Wel, you’ve been sending it to me several times a day, so I have to guess that you’ve got some important things to say about it. So I bring you Democrat County Supervisor Peggy West of Milwaukee, a Latin woman who must think that Arizona is in Mississippi;

    The last person to send it to me, Jacobite, was hoping for some of your more exceptional comments.

  • Encouraging a race war

    I really don’t know what people are thinking. Courtland Milloy, a columnist for the Washington Post wrote a piece last week entitled “Tolerance of white militias exemplifies racial double standard” in which he teams up with our dearest buddy, Mark Potok, to fan the flames of a race war;

    Since Obama took office last year, the number of white militias has shot up from about 170 to more than 500, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, which monitors extremist groups in the United States. Armed with enough firepower to take on a police department, some of these groups are honing their sniper skills using photographs of Obama for target practice.

    They cling to the delusion that the nation’s first black president is somehow a subversive working for Muslim extremists, and they aim to bring him down.

    “If the people we saw running around armed to the teeth were black, I think their organizations would be destroyed in a matter of hours,” Mark Potok, director of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Intelligence Project, told me. “If people saw on their TV screens photos of black militia members shooting at images of a white president, I don’t think they would last.”

    Of course Potok sees racists in his closet and under his bed. That 500 number of “hate groups” is completely manufactured as we’ve shown in the past. If the number is manufactured, so is Potok’s and Milloy’s fear. And Milloy admits that his false outrage was ginned up by Chris Matthew’s “The Rise Of The New Right” propaganda piece.

    As Potok said, “There’s a huge amount of anger, and what we are really lacking at this moment is a kind of spark.”

    It appears to me that Potok is more than willing to provide that spark. Potok’s manufactured outrage and tendency for hyperbole as a fund raising scheme has the potential to create unreasonable fear on both sides of his hoped-for war. If some crackpot tried to warn about the rise of Leftwing terrorists in the pages of the Washington, they’d have been unceremoniously tossed out on their ear. So why is Milloy allowed to churn out this crap?

  • Gun rights for everyone

    The Supreme Court has decided that Americans all have gun rights, not just Americans who don’t live Chicago, New York City or DC. This from the Washington Post;

    The Supreme Court held Monday that Americans have the right to own a gun for self-defense anywhere they live, advancing a recent trend by the John Roberts-led bench to embrace gun rights.

    By a 5-4 vote, the justices cast doubt on handgun bans in the Chicago area, but signaled that some limitations on the Constitution’s “right to keep and bear arms” could survive legal challenges.

    See that? It’s John Roberts who guarantees our right to own firearms, not the Constitution, somehow. The fact of the matter is that these recent cases are the only cases that have made it to the Supreme Court in recent years so that the Supreme Court could actually have a voice in the matter. It has nothing to do with John Roberts, it has to do with the law.

    It does bother me, however that the four dissenting voices are so stupid, though. The law says what it says and denying it isn’t a matter of opinion – it’s a matter of illiteracy. Do they have a literacy requiremnet in the Supreme Court? Thise four couldn’t even bring themselves to get this much right;

    Monday’s decision did not explicitly strike down the Chicago area laws. Instead, it ordered a federal appeals court to reconsider its ruling. But it left little doubt that the statutes eventually would fall.

    Still, Alito noted that the declaration that the Second Amendment is fully binding on states and cities “limits (but by no means eliminates) their ability to devise solutions to social problems that suit local needs and values.”

    Leftists are so doctrinal and cleave so tightly to their dogma, not a sliver of daylight or a moment’s rational thought gets between them. If the decision was to issue every American a gun, they might have a point, but to deny that all Americans have the same rights is just ignorant. Let’s hope one of the five don’t die before 2013.

  • History repeating itself.

    So, once again the group “Rethink Afghanistan” is doing it best to display that nothing has gone right in Afghanistan since 2001 has put out a video showing the comments from the General McCrystal’s aides.

    Some of the better quotes so far.

    The problem is it is an unjust war.Taliban stopped poppy growth. NATO protects the poppy.Bush never proved Bin Laden guilty. Taliban asked for proof he did 911. Democracy demands proof of a crime. The war is plain terrorism.

    Or this one that suggested that the General was thinking about killing the President.

    I actually read the Rolling Stones story today, do you know when McCrystal was at West Point and wrote for the newspaper there he wrote a fictional story on assassinating a US President in the Oval office. Now, tell me how the Obama Administration missed that one. Let’s not forget the Pat Tillman (hero) mess where the General wrote that … See MoreTillman died at the hands of the Taliban when it was friendly fire that killed him. Oh, and talk about torturing prisoners in Iraqi. He would actually visit the prisons and oversaw the illegal acts against war prisoners. Yes, he is an effective military first strike man who knows how to kill better than any of the rest, but he needed to go. You don’t out TOP SECRETS just to embarrass the President’s Administration. GET OUT of all wars in other countries unless we are attacked or an attack is being planned on the US and its interest.

    But for the most part it can be summed up in this cartoon.
