Vindication!

I have blogged often on the global warming hoax. You see I recognized it for what it was immediately. These same leftists tried the same stunt in the 70s, claiming that we were all going to die in a new ice age unless we pay more taxes. It was absurd then, and it is just as absurd now. And the fact that my elementary school took a week to scare the crap out of me and my peers, left a bitter taste in my mouth for decades.

I am not a scientist, but I am a rational person who believes in a loving Creator. God created this planet and all the remarkable interrelated forces that govern things like weather. It would be virtually impossible, even if man put all his efforts into it, to destroy this planet. He is a very small organism living on a massively large globe. Take a plane ride across America or over the pond, and you will better understand how big this planet really is.

But even if you reject a divine presence, if you take a step back, you will quickly realize how insignificant the role of man has, compared to global and cosmic sources on the planet. The fact that these so-called "global warming" scientists refuse to even consider the sun, earth's core (Al Gore claimed it is a million degrees down there), gravity, cosmic radiation and a hundred other factors in climate change, shows their unwillingness to uncover the truth.

For almost two decades we have had the "global warming" hysteria jammed down our throats. Big Al Gore has forced schools to watch his laughable propaganda film and produced numerous books promoting this hoax. His motivation is quite simply to profit off of the hoax both directly and indirectly, investing in "green" trading and companies.

For the scientists and politicians that have continued this nonsense, its both financial and political. This was an easy way to force otherwise free countries into a more socialized world order. Bring on climate guilt and regulate and tax them into submission. The plan was working pretty well until certain people started asking tough questions.

But now the jig is finally up. Someone gained access to hundreds of emails and documents that detail the fraud and manipulation of science. But I'll let Christopher Monckton, one of the heroes of the so-called denier movement take it from here:


The tiny, close-knit clique of climate scientists who invented and now drive the “global warming” fraud — for fraud is what we now know it to be — tampered with temperature data so assiduously that, on the recent admission of one of them, land temperatures since 1980 have risen twice as fast as ocean temperatures. One of the thousands of emails recently circulated by a whistleblower at the University of East Anglia, where one of the world’s four global-temperature datasets is compiled, reveals that data were altered so as to prevent a recent decline in temperature from showing in the record. In fact, there has been no statistically significant “global warming” for 15 years — and there has been rapid and significant cooling for nine years.


Worse, these arrogant fraudsters — for fraudsters are what we now know them to be — have refused, for years and years and years, to reveal their data and their computer program listings. Now we know why: As a revealing 15,000-line document from the computer division at the Climate Research Unit shows, the programs and data are a hopeless, tangled mess. In effect, the global temperature trends have simply been made up. Unfortunately, the British researchers have been acting closely in league with their U.S. counterparts who compile the other terrestrial temperature dataset — the GISS/NCDC dataset. That dataset too contains numerous biases intended artificially to inflate the natural warming of the 20th century.

I have never, and will never deny that the climate of the earth does change. I will absolutely fight the concept that CO2 is a pollutant, or in any way causes global warming. Just the opposite, CO2 increases in the atmosphere FOLLOW periods of higher temperatures since the majority of CO2 is in the oceans and released as they evaporate. CO2 is never the driver.

We have gone through ice ages and significant warm periods as well. We seem to be in a cooling phase at present. In the not too distant past, they grew grapes in England and the Norse settled a place called GREENLAND that ain't so green anymore. During those times there were no SUVs and no industrial output of any significance. The changes in global climate are completely natural and cyclical. And in some cases, can be quite beneficial to mankind.

Nevertheless, and even with mounting evidence of a substantial fraud and bad science, world leaders are gathering next month in Copenhagen to yet again force some global warming hoax-inspired wealth distribution on the Western world. This is also what is behind the very bad legislation called Cap & Trade (Cap & Tax). Both will substantially cripple our economy, as we have already seen in Europe among nations that have embraced this nonsense. And the funny part, cutting CO2 emissions will do nothing to change the climate.

Now that we have put to bed this non issue, maybe we can focus on some more important things like winning the war against terrorism and reducing taxes so our economy will get out of the crapper.

PDS and the State Run Media...

Sarah Palin's Going Rogue book tour is in full swing and the liberals in the media are in full meltdown mode. Here are just a few for grins:

The most damaging pieces of legislation ever considered in Washington, Obamacare, has over 4,000 pages between the House and Senate versions. Going Rogue has just over 400 pages. The Associated Press has assigned 2 reporters to Obamacare and 11 to "fact check" Sarah Palin.
Accountability Journalism


And then you have reporterette Norah O'Donnell from something called MSNBC badgering a 17-year old fan of Sarah Palin. You must watch the video to see the absurdity of the reporter with notes prepared to pounce on someone waiting to meet Palin. They are simply out of control. The girl handled the attack quite well and O'Donnell comes off as an abusive nitwit.

Here is the young girl's version of the events.



I know it pains them to write this, but Going Rogue sold 300,000 copies on the first day and the print run has been increased from 1.5 million to 2.5 million. Go Sarah!



What would the world be without "open-minded" liberals? San Francisco booksellers would rather lose money than go 'Rogue'



Obama uses troops for photo-ops. Sarah donates the proceeds of her visit to the Fort Hood families. Which leader really loves the troops?



Oprah gets highest ratings in 10 years with Sarah Palin.



Liberal nitwits try and stage a smear campaign against Sarah, but instead are caught red-handed. Let this be a lesson, whenever you hear a negative story about a Conservative, look for the source and the truth. Truth to a liberal is like light to a vampire.

November 15, 1777...

After 16 MONTHS of debate, the Continental Congress approved the Articles of Confederation for ratification by the states. This would lay the groundwork for the Constitution. Among the guarantees in the Articles:

"Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right, which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated."

Now, think about Nancy Pelosi and this present Congress ramming through 2,000 pages of jibberish that not one single Congress critter has read in its final form - in the middle of the night and on a weekend.

Our Founding Fathers understood that it took time and debate before decisons could be made and laws passed. They rightly feared an all-powerful centralized government and took this responsibility seriously.

We should all be aware that if/when Obamacare passes, the Federal government will have the power to regulate EVERY aspect of your life. Why? Because EVERYTHING you eat, drink, breathe and do may have an impact on your health care needs today, or tomorrow. The government will regulate your life to control and minimize how much this monstrosity will cost. Do you really want some czar or bureaucrat telling you how to live your life?

This is not poltics. It is YOUR FREEDOM that is at stake.

There is a reason I have this Thomas Jefferson quote at the top of my blog. It is still 100% true 200 years later.

"I am for a government rigorously frugal and simple. Were we directed from Washington when to sow, when to reap, we should soon want bread."

11 Freakin' Writers!

From the great Mark Steyn:

Wow. That's ten "AP writers" plus Calvin Woodward, the AP writer whose twinkling pen honed the above contributions into the turgid sludge of the actual report. That's 11 writers for a 695-word report. What on? Obamacare? The Iranian nuke program? The upcoming trial of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed?

No, the Associated Press assigned 11 writers to "fact-check" Sarah Palin's new book, and in return the 11 fact-checkers triumphantly unearthed six errors. That's 1.8333333 writers for each error.

The economy is in the toilet. Over 17% unemployment. Obama is bowing to world leaders. Iran is shooting us the finger. Congress is trying to destroy our wonderful health care system. And the AP thinks its more important to sick 11 writers on a private citizen's literary endeavor?

I am speechless. Its almost comical how crazy and unhinged the left is when it comes to Sarah. Heck, I may just order a few more copies simply to give as gifts. The sales numbers for her book are already off the charts and it has not even shipped.

Oh, here is another fun nugget:

HuffPo Ponders Separate NY Times Bestsellers List for 'Conservative Blockbusters' - Liberals never win in the arena of ideas, so therefore they want to change the rules. Typical. They fail to realize that this is still, largely, a Conservative nation.

Hope and Spare Change!

I was going to blog about Fort Hood, but decided I better avoid the subject until I calm down a bit. Instead, I give you selected headlines from today's news. Click on the links for the full story.

$230,769.23 Spent Per Stimulus Job "Created or Saved"
Reports to be released Friday on the government Web site Recovery.gov are expected to show that the $150 billion in grants and loans made so far under the economic stimulus package have created or saved about 650,000 jobs, White House officials said Friday morning.

Harrison - I still can't figure out how to measure a "saved" job. I wonder how many jobs could be created by your average entrepreneur/business owner with $230,000?

Only a Democrat could waste $230,000 in taxpayer money to create ONE freakin' job and think that is a good thing.


Unemployment Hits Record High - 10.2% In October!
Remember that Obama claimed the stimulus bill would save or create millions of jobs. It didn’t. Remember that the Obama Administration said that the stimulus bill would keep unemployment from rising above 8% and that the bill was too important to take the time to read it? Remember that after a slight dip in unemployment in August Obama claimed that he had “rescued our economy from catastrophe?”

Harrison - The CBO argued it would have been better to do nothing.

10.2% is hardly accurate. The actual number is closer to 17.5%. This is the U-6 category which includes: people who have given up, taken part time jobs, gone back to school etc. Under a Democrat controlled Congress and President Bush, that number was 11.1% last October. It is now 17.5% after a year at the mercy of a Federal government completely dominated by Democrats. Here is the Bureau of Labor Statistics data. Read it quickly before the White House wipes away the evidence.

Democrats have spent taxpayer money we don't have like drunken sailors (no offense intended to my Navy friends). They have nationalized school loans and taken over car companies. They are now openly debating a takeover of health care. All these actions will just delay the natural recovery. If we ever want to get out of this economic funk, we must stop spending, shrink the government and lower taxes. Get DC out of the way of private business and watch the economy roar back to life.

How To Lose A War And Inspire Your Enemies...

The Obama administration has been dithering around with its plans for Afghanistan for almost an entire year. His hand-picked general has requested 40,000 more troops, but Obama is unsure. I can only imagine the outrage from Americans and the military if Roosevelt had strung Eisenhower along this way during WW2.

Our community organizer in chief, with all of 150 days in the Senate now thinks he knows more than the leadership of our professional military on how to win a war! But then again maybe he does not want to win...

Back on July 23rd on Nightline, he had this to say about Afghanistan:

"I'm always worried about using the word 'victory,' because, you know, it invokes this notion of Emperor Hirohito coming down and signing a surrender to MacArthur," Obama told ABC News.

What are we now, France? What is the end game? Defeat? Surrender?

Most conflicts that end decisively, result in a lasting peace. See Germany, Japan, Mexican American, Spanish American wars etc etc. Its only the ones where we have negotiated/surrendered or did not finish what we started that have continued to fester - see North Korea and Afghanistan.

Now we find out that Obama is negotiating with the Taliban for shared leadership in Afghanistan. WTH? The Taliban (or as Obama likes to calls them, Tollybon) was/is one of the most brutally oppressive regimes in the modern era. They gave sanctuary to Al Queda and facilitated the training of 9-11 terrorists. The ongoing insurgency in Afghanistan is being orchestrated by many former Taliban leaders.

Here is what we offered:

"US negotiators had offered the Taliban leadership through Mullah Wakil Ahmed Mutawakkil (former Taliban foreign minister) that if they accept the presence of NATO troops in Afghanistan, they would be given the governorship of six provinces in the south and northeast," a senior Afghan Foreign Ministry official told IslamOnline.net requesting anonymity for not being authorized to talk about the sensitive issue with the media.

If you have paid any attention to the Middle east in the past 50 years, you know that any concession by the West towards radical islam is perceived as weakness. The Taliban has seen that the US and its allies are not serious about winning the war. They will now ramp up the insurgency costing even more lives because of his amateurish stunt. Example number 5000 of why liberals should never hold power, especially at this level.

If the Taliban ever agreed to such a plan, they would simply use the provinces as launching pads (possibly literally like Hezbollah and Hamas have done with rockets and mortars into Israel) to further destabilize Afghanistan.

America has spent far too much in blood and taxpayer money to walk away now. Its time for this administration to grow a pair, take the gloves off and defeat the forces of darkness that would plunge the now free Afghans back under the iron fist of the Taliban. Let the military fight the battle and don't play politics with American lives.

Obama may not like the term victory, but if he were a real American he would understand that is who we are. We finish what we start. We leave the place better than before we came. And most importantly, we WIN!

Obamacare On Life Support...

The government takeover of health care seems to keep rearing its ugly head. I thought after Sarah Palin's brilliant FaceBook message referring to the "end of life" counseling and inevitable rationing of elderly care as "death panels" was a fatal blow. But even with support all the way down to 42%, and I even think that is overstated, Democrats keep pushing this crap forward.

If you find yourself on the fence, here is one more nugget to consider. One of the big reasons Obama and his henchmen are pushing this is that they see it as a foot in the door to socialized medicine (complete government control of all health decisions and expenditures). There is ample evidence, and in their own words, affirming this truth. They will force everyone to take government insurance (think medicare or medicaid). This will eventually destroy the private insurance industry as they cannot compete against a government (taxpayer) subsidized entity. The end result is everyone will pay EVEN MORE for Obama's crappy government plan.

Why do I call it crappy? Ask a poor person, a health care provider or an elderly person and they will let you know.

Now, one of the ways Obama has sold this garbage is that it would save $$$ and stop the "profiteering" of "big insurance companies." Excuse me?

The top 10 health insurers COMBINED earned profits of just over $8 Billion. Let that number sink in for a tic.

Medicare FRAUD in the USA cost you and me $60 BILLION last year. And that's for about 45 million Medicare victims. Probably half of those $$$ went to ACORN and/or funded Obama's election, but I digress.

How in the wide, wide, world of sports will that number not increase a hundredfold when you force another 200 million people to suffer with some bureaucratic government boondoggle of an insurance plan?

Here is the source article: Annual Medicare Fraud: $60 Billion; Annual Profits of Top Ten Insurance Companies: $8 billion


Say it once again, loud and with feeling:

THERE IS NOTHING THAT THE GOVERNMENT CAN DO BETTER AND CHEAPER THAN THE PRIVATE SECTOR!

This Is Insane...

Our very own Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, the one with the permanent deer in the headlights expression, unveiled (privately) the brand new health care takeover bill. Unfortunately, its not any prettier than she is.

There are at least 13 new taxes in the bill. Among the more egregious that you might consider:

Individual Mandate Surtax: If you do not have health insurance or refuse to buy health insurance, your friends in Washington will tax you 2.5% of your modified adjusted gross income!

Medicine Cabinet Tax: Would end your ability to purchase non-prescription medications with your health savings accounts (HSAs) or flexible spending accounts (FSAs), or health reimbursement arrangements (HRAs). The bill would also cap FSAs at $2500.

This would be the beginning of the end for HSAs and FSAs. These are actually the solution to affordable health care, but according to Nancy and her merry band of nitwits, they must be destroyed.

Surtax on Individuals and Small Businesses: Nancy includes a surtax of 5.4 percent on adjusted gross incomes over $500,000 ($1 million married filing jointly). If you thought the Democrat engineered banking crash was bad, wait until you see what this does to small businesses and unemployment after it gets rolling.

The "nonpartisan" CBO claims this will ONLY cost $200 BILLION more annually - we all know from previous experiences with goobermint programs you will need to multiply that number by at least 10 for a more accurate estimate.

But the irony of ironies, this will still leave an estimated 18 million people uninsured. 18 freakin' million? We're wasting $200 BILLION and still can't buy basic coverage for 18 million people!? As you see, this bill has nothing to do with making sure people are insured. Heck, give me that $200 billion and I will personally insure every uninsured citizen out there with plenty leftover to throw a mega party or two!

What makes all of this futile is that reimbursements to doctors and hospitals will be drastically reduced. Doctors will retire early, for-profit hospitals will shut their doors, and as health options decrease and begin to be rationed - as they always have in socialized countries, the cost will skyrocket. Not to mention the end of any private insurance options as the Federal government runs them out of business.

Worst Legislation EVER -- although cap and tax may still be worse.

Hope and Change!!!

A Spooky Halloween Tale...

It is of course almost Halloween so I thought it appropriate to tell you the story of Stan. You see Stan went out on Halloween night dressed as his favorite superhero and hit every house in the neighborhood. He even went to the school and church carnivals and even visited the Church down the street for their Fall Festival. When he got home he counted up his haul and was amazed how much he had.

"Mom! I have 50 candy bars!" he exclaimed.

"What are you going to do with all that candy?" asked his Mom.

"I'm taking it to school to share with my friends," said Stan.

His mother was so proud that her son thought of his friends first. On Monday, all the kids were sharing stories of Halloween with their teacher. Nobody had the kind of success that Stan had, and some were even envious. The teacher sensing the disparity, decided that it wasn't fair that Stan had more than the rest.

"Stan, I'm going to take your candy and share it with the rest of the class," said the teacher.

And before Stan could say anything, the teacher had taken his pumpkin full of candy bars. She came to Anne first. Anne had stayed home because her family doesn't celebrate Halloween. Anne was offered 10 candy bars, but since she was a Christian, she refused. She told the teacher that she did not want Stan's candy. That brought a moment of relief to Stan. Maybe others would refuse?

Joe went to a couple of relatives' houses and had five candy bars. He got five more. Bobby played video games and didn't even bother to go trick or treating. She gave him 10 candy bars. The Dickinson twins had worked their neighborhood and had 8 candy bars each. The teacher gave them both two more. Sally and Ray were both sick, so they didn't have any. They were given 10 candy bars. And then the teacher finally came back to Stan and gave him 8 candy bars.

"Where's all my candy?" demanded Stan. "Don't I at least get ten like the rest?"

"Don't be selfish Stan. It wasn't fair that you had so much, and everyone else had so little," explained the teacher. "Since I had to distribute the candy, I kept 3 bars for my trouble. And I'm keeping your pumpkin for next year."

"But I worked all night for that!" explained Stan.

It didn't matter. His teacher had already distributed his candy.

Stan couldn't believe what had just happened. He was going to share with the class, but now he had just a few left from all his hard work. He stood there with his mouth wide open glaring at his teacher.

"You Bitch!"

THE END

The Moral of the story? What's the point of working hard if everything you earn is taken from you to give to those unwilling to earn it on their own.

.

The same lesson was learned at Plymouth Colony when everyone worked for the common good. They almost starved that first winter because nobody had any incentive to work hard. And then William Bradford assigned each person a plot of land to work for their own benefit. Amazingly, they had an abundant harvest and celebrated their good fortune by sharing it with the Indians (I apologize...Native Americans, Indigenous Folks - I have no idea what my ancestors are supposed to be called these days) on that first Thanksgiving.

.

America's first attempt at socialism almost destroyed those early pilgrims. Thank God they instead turned to capitalism and not only survived, but prospered too. The rest as they say is history...Of course THAT story is rarely taught in the indoctrination centers (I mean public schools).

.

Now centuries later, we have a political party determined to send us back down the path to socialism. These are supposedly smart people who continue to regurgitate the same stupid, failed solutions involving more government control and redistribution of wealth. THAT is the really scary part of this story.

Solar Power - 170 Years And Counting...

Solar technology has been around for almost 200 years. Since the Carter years, we have dumped BILLIONS of taxpayer $$$ into subsidizing this technology. Even with all this government waste, it has proven woefully inadequate when compared to much more viable and proven energy sources such as nuclear, coal, hydroelectric and others.

Now under the Nobel Prize winning dear leader's administration, it seems solar will be winning the lottery once again. California Congressman Tom McClintock gave a great speech on this topic today. Below is an excerpt and link.

In a day, a solid acre of state-of-the-art solar panels can produce 2.2 megawatt hours of electricity, assuming an average of 5 hours of peak sunlight. 2.2 megawatt hours per day. Compare that to the Diablo Canyon nuclear power plant that produces 49,000 megawatt hours of electricity each day.

In order to duplicate that single nuclear power plant, it would require 22,000 acres of solid solar panels – or 34 square miles. By comparison, the Diablo Canyon Power Plant sits on one square mile.

So this technology, after 170 years and countless billions of dollars of research and development, is roughly 17 times more expensive than nuclear power and consumes 32 times the land area of a comparable nuclear facility.
HR 3585 Solar Technology Roadmap Act of 2009


Solar will never be the solution in our lifetime. But I'm sure Democrats already know that. They, like Santa Clause, just love handing out taxpayer-funded Christmas presents to their buddies in the solar technology field and in universities.

BTW - The lovely piece of legislative crap that brought about this speech (HR 3585) has been estimated to cost some 1.4 BILLION from 2011-2014. Let the party begin!!

I Heart Lord Monckton...

Lord Christopher Monckton gives a stirring rebuttal to Al Gore and the global warming fanatics. The video at the bottom is long, over an hour, but well worth your time. The only downside is you can't see the slides that accompany his speech - so I have added a link to the Power Point slides as well.

Its no wonder that Al Gore is scared to debate Lord Monckton.

The most important final 4 minutes of the speech.

"They are too yellow to admit they are really red."

Great Is Truth, and Mighty Above All Things

The entire speech below. Here is a link to the power point presentation that he references in the speech. Start the Youtube video and follow along with the power point slides.

Who Do You Admire Most?

When I think of great leaders and philosophers, or even people I would invite to my fantasy dinner, names like Jesus, Plato, Thomas Jefferson and Ghandi come to mind. I would think most Americans would have similar lists.

Jesus would be an obvious choice. His wisdom is eternal and I could never stop learning from him.

Thomas Jefferson understood better than most the concept of freedom that he and the other Founding Fathers created. I would love to hear what he thinks of American government now.

But then you have Obama's communications director, Anita Dunn. Who is inspired by Mao Tse Tung? The man who was responsible for as many as 70 million deaths in China as he forced Communism on the Chinese?

Where does Obama find all these radical nitwits? And what is someone who admires and dare I say worships Chairman Mao or Che in Cuba or Chavez in Venezuela doing working at the highest levels of our Federal Government? And why do "progressives" always idolize dictators, murderers and Marxists?

Watch the video of her commencement address to a private school last June. The White House is spinning this that she was joking. I'm not buying that because it isn't funny. This lady is a serious nutcase and has no business anywhere near the White House.

Operation Market Garden...

This is fantastic link by one of the best military journalists around, Michael Yon. He recently visited the Netherlands for the anniversary of Operation Market Garden, where allied forces fought to free the Dutch from German occupation. The movies A Bridge Too Far and part of Band of Brothers was based on Operation Market Garden.

There are 7 pages and plenty of pictures here.

I Have A Dream...

Congress goes on recess and stays there.

Then maybe our God-given Constitutional freedoms might be somewhat safe.

Do I Dare Believe?

Pardon my departure from my political musings for something serious.

The SMU Mustangs are 3-2 and 2-0 in conference play for the first time in a gazillion years. And if they had not had a complete meltdown in the final quarter against Washington State, they would be 4-1. There is a gentleman's agreement to place SMU in the Aloha Bowl (or whatever its called) for a June Jones homecoming if SMU is bowl eligible and not CUSA champion. Do I dare book my flight?

Next week they play a formidable Navy team that destroyed us in the rain in Annapolis last year. I believe our defense is a heck of a lot better this year, especially the speed at LB, but are they up to stopping the option for 4 quarters? I will be there to witness it firsthand, so I know they will NOT disappoint me.

Its been far too long of a bowl drought. SMU needs a bowl game. Dang it, I need a bowl game. They haven't been to a bowl game since I was in school and that was a looooong time ago!

Go Mustangs!!!

Is It Time To Write My Autobiography?

I mean really, if that is all it takes to establish my name, earn some coin, bribe some union/ACORN types, vote "present" a view times in a state legislature, spend approximately 143 days in the Senate campaigning full time for POTUS and then win the Nobel Prize. Heck, I'm in.

My accomplishments? Well, let's see... I assisted virtually every movie studio in promoting their films in DFW. I created NHL hockey cards bringing joy to collectors everywhere. This was followed by a widely acclaimed and award winning Desert Storm trading card set - but that's not PC.

Collectors of Coca Cola, NFL and Playboy products got to purchase my handiwork. And I created IVR-based promotions and campaigns for JC Penney, Gruner & Jahr, Nokia, SBC and NRA among others. Although I probably need to avoid mentioning those pesky defenders of the 2nd Amendment.

In my free time I write Christian children's stories, read and enjoyed online by millions around the world. I have also utilized my formerly impressive athletic skills to win multiple church basketball and flag football league titles. I even managed to coach some awful 8th graders to their championship in Church basketball. But I probably should avoid mentioning Jesus, church, Christian or I will labeled a fanatic by the liberals.

I even have my long form birth certificate somewhere and I can take you to the exact hospital where I was born. My mom even kept my certificates of membership to GI Joe's Adventure Team and the Estes Model rocket club. And I bet I could find some stuff for my time in Cub Scouts too. But most of that might be too militaristic for the state run media.

I bet I could even find articles I wrote in college for the newspaper and my college transcripts. Well, the latter are impressive every other semester. The grades seemed to dip during football season - not sure what that means.

Yep, that sounds pretty impressive. I think I'm ready to make my move. And just like dear leader I will find someone to secretly write it for me. Although my life will not need nearly as much embellishment as dear leader.

Instead of a terrorist and raving mad socialist, I will select Mark Steyn if he's game. I mean he may be a little to the right for the lunatic left's taste, but he definitely has a gift when it comes to words.

Obama's priorities lie not in the Hindu Kush but in America: Why squander your presidency on trying to turn an economically moribund feudal backwater into a functioning nation state when you can turn a functioning nation state into an economically moribund feudal backwater?
Mark Steyn: Nobel tops 'SNL' for Obama joke

Yea, I think Mark will do nicely.

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot!!

The Weekly Standard lists some of the Nobel Prize nominees that Obama beat.

A woman who fought for many years to educate girls in Afghanistan under the Taliban.

A Congolese doctor working with victims of sexual abuse.

Two Chinese human rights activists.

OR, a one-term Senator with only 143 days on the job and less than two weeks as President.

This is truly insane.

If dear leader didn't have such a massive ego, he would decline the award for lack of merit.

Is It April Fool's Day?

I checked the news today and saw that our dear leader has been awarded the Nobel Peace Price. Are you freakin' kidding me? What makes this laughable is that he was nominated on February 1st for this - barely a week into his failed Presidency.

Even the Nobel committee hints at the completely ridiculous selection - from the citation:

Obama has as President created a new climate in international politics. Multilateral diplomacy has regained a central position, with emphasis on the role that the United Nations and other international institutions can play. Dialogue and negotiations are preferred as instruments for resolving even the most difficult international conflicts.

Ah yes, demanding a would-be Marxist tyrant be restored to power in Honduras, allowing Iran and North Korea to continue their development of nuclear weapons, abandoning our longtime ally Israel and the global groveling/apology tour is really paying dividends among socialists worldwide.


The vision of a world free from nuclear arms has powerfully stimulated disarmament and arms control negotiations.

Hello? There are about to be two new rogue nuclear powers in the world and our dear leader has given them the green light. At least one, Iran, has continued to insist that they will use it on Israel and anyone else that President Imamadnutjob dislikes. The vision of a nuclear free world is the vision of somebody completely naive to the dangers present in the world today.


Thanks to Obama's initiative, the USA is now playing a more constructive role in meeting the great climatic challenges the world is confronting. Democracy and human rights are to be strengthened.

Never mind that we are on a decade long cooling trend and the UN IPCC climate reports have been widely discredited. Global warming is now referred to as climate change - which sounds cooler. Whatever it takes to spread socialism globally I guess.


Only very rarely has a person to the same extent as Obama captured the world's attention and given its people hope for a better future. His diplomacy is founded in the concept that those who are to lead the world must do so on the basis of values and attitudes that are shared by the majority of the world's population.

Hope and change wins out yet again over anything tangible. Our dear leader has 9 months as POTUS, 143 days on the job in the Senate, a host of "present" votes in his short time in Illinois politics, and was elected in an ACORN/Chicago politics inspired fraud of epic proportions. What has he really accomplished that would earn him this recognition? But let's be frank, what qualified him most in the eyes of our esteemed Nobel voters was that he is not George Bush - and that is sad.

This same bunch of idiots gave the "Peace" Prize to known terrorist/murderer Yasser Arafat, one of the worst Presidents in the modern era, Jimmy Carter and global warming scam artist Al Gore. That tells you all you need to know.

Remember with liberals, results do not matter, only intentions.

Good News For Aspiring Suicide Bombers and Terrorists!

Imagine a young Muslim terrorist straps on his suicide vest, runs into a cafe filled with unsuspecting infidels, yells some gibberish and detonates his vest, killing all inside.

Next, we see our martyr in paradise looking for his promised reward - 72 virgins. But to his disappointment they are not what he expected. So in anger he asks...

"Where the white women at?"

But for every question, Muslim clerics have an answer.

In an interview with Syrian-born Saudi cleric Muhammad Al-Munajid, which aired on Al-Majd TV on July 25, 2009, all these questions are answered.

Allah said that the black-eyed virgins are beautiful white young women, with black pupils and very white retinas, whose skin is so delicate and bright that it causes confusion. Allah said that they are like hidden pearls. They have wide eyes, and they have not been touched by man or jinn. They are virgins, who yearn for their husbands. They are all the same age, morally and physically beautiful. They are like precious gems and pearls in their splendor, their clarity, their purity, and their whiteness.

That does sound a little racist, but whatever. With 72 white virgins, how will our martyr ever have the stamina to service such bounty?

The Prophet Muhammad says that in Paradise, a man gets the strength of 100 men when it comes to eating, drinking, passion, and sex.

I see. But what happens if they get pregnant, sick, or are jealous of each other?

...the women of Paradise are pure, unblemished, menstruation-free, free of feces, urine, phlegm, children... Moreover, Allah cleaned them of all impure and foul things, both in appearance and character. In character, they are not jealous, hateful, or angry. They are not greedy.

Wow! Paradise is sounding pretty cool. But with so many terrorists running around - I mean they do blow up so fast. Will my virgins want to run off with some other terrorist who killed more infidels than me?

They are restricted to tents, locked up for the husband. There is no such thing as going out. When he comes home – they are there. There is no such thing in Paradise as a man coming home and not finding his wife there.

Whew! That's a load off my mind. But what happens after a few weeks and I have "broken in" all my virgins. Surely, something can be done to restore their virginity?

Unfortunately, our cleric did not address this issue just yet. But others have suggested perpetual virginity for all 72. Maybe a cleric can clarify this further in the future.

Seems like pretty good motivation to leave this world for the next. No wonder so many ignorant men have wasted their lives as terrorists. Unfortunately, they will be bitterly disapointed in their afterlife "reward." And that is just sad.

HELP! HELP! I'm being repressed!

For those getting the feed on Facebook, you will need to click on the link below to see the video - its worth it.

Since it is forbidden to criticize our dear leader without being called a racist, we must resort to other means to express our disappointment with the direction of our country. One of these is ridicule. So I give you Dennis and his explanation of government oppression from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

ARTHUR: Be quiet! I order you to be quiet!
WOMAN: Order, eh -- who does he think he is?
ARTHUR: I am your king!
WOMAN: Well, I didn't vote for you.
ARTHUR: You don't vote for kings.
WOMAN: Well, 'ow did you become king then?
ARTHUR: The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite, held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water signifying by Divine Providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur. That is why I am your king!
DENNIS: Listen -- strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony.

Priceless! Watch the entire scene below:





Speaking of films, I just watched Der Untergang (2004) this weekend. Its a German film about the last days of Hitler. One of the better films I have seen on the topic for those that do not mind subtitles.

As the end approaches, even the most loyal supporters start to see the madness of Hitler and National Socialism. And while a few "patriots" follow Hitler to the grave - some quite literally, most Germans realize Hitler was a power hungry psychotic. Unfortunately, for the 50 million who lost their lives, that was discovered far too late.

The lesson we learn is to not follow a cult of personality. They will simply use you and quickly discard you when they are done. Develop principles and values and stick to them. Support candidates that support those values. Avoid supporting people because of their charisma or charm. Charm is just a con game. BTW - one of the meanings of charm is bewitch. Something to think about each election season.

Good film if you get a chance to see it, and its available online.
