Charles Krauthammer gets the ‘Lay it Out’ award

Saturday, February 6th, 2010

Charles Krauthammer gets the randomly awarded ‘Lay it Out’ award for his piece: ‘The great peasant revolt of 2010′.

Liberal expressions of disdain for the intelligence and emotional maturity of the electorate have been, post-Massachusetts, remarkably unguarded. New York Times columnist Charles Blow chided Obama for not understanding the necessity of speaking “in the plain words of plain folks,” because the people are “suspicious of complexity.” Counseled Blow: “The next time he gives a speech, someone should tap him on the ankle and say, ‘Mr. President, we’re down here.’ “

A Time magazine blogger was even more blunt about the ankle-dwelling mob, explaining that we are “a nation of dodos” that is “too dumb to thrive.”

Obama joined the parade in the State of the Union address when, with supercilious modesty, he chided himself “for not explaining it [health care] more clearly to the American people.” The subject, he noted, was “complex.” The subject, it might also be noted, was one to which the master of complexity had devoted 29 speeches. Perhaps he did not speak slowly enough.

Krauthammer has a way with words!!!!!

What a Prayer Breakfast

Saturday, February 6th, 2010

What did the Savior have to say during the Prayer Breakfast?  S.E. Cupp has summed it up:

Christ is nowhere to be found: The president is supposedly a Christian, yet there wasn’t a single mention of Christ or Jesus in today’s speech.

God and war: Obama said that God’s grace is expressed through the efforts of our armed forces. Really? Sarah Palin was publicly flayed for suggesting just this when she asked her congregation to pray for the military.

Americans are terrible: The president devoted a considerable portion of his speech to condemning Americans for becoming “absorbed with our abstract arguments, our ideological disputes, our contests for power.” It might have been nice to mention that we are also the most philanthropic country in the world, especially considering that even in our own time of economic struggle, we have generously opened our wallets to help rebuild another devastated nation.

Dissing evangelicals: In throwing a bone to the religious right, Obama doesn’t miss a chance to also insult them. “We see that in many conservative pastors who are helping lead the way to fix our broken immigration system. It’s not what would be expected from them, and yet they recognize, in those immigrant families, the face of God.” He may as well have just called them xenophobic nativists.

And no Obama speech would be complete without a shout-out to the other big guy upstairs – himself. So he closed his Prayer Breakfast speech by congratulating himself for doing such a great job with his Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships, just in case you momentarily forgot that 2012 is right around the corner.

All in all, it was actually fairly predictable – if you’ve ever heard this president discuss faith you know that he is incredibly uneasy with the themes and constructs of American belief, and often manages to slight the faithful just as he’s awkwardly trying to address them.

What more could we expect from the man that stood in front of the world and said America is no longer a Christian nation.    I say this to Obama: quit trying to hide who you really are.  Let the world know you prefer the preaching of the racist Reverend Wright.  Say your real opinion at the Prayer Breakfast that this country is not a Christian country.  Come on out of the ol’ closet and let everyone know you have no ambition to attend a church in the D.C. area and exactly why.

Personally, I don’t care what other people’s religious beliefs are.  But if you are going to portray the image of a holy man, like Obama is doing now, you better be ready to back it up.

SNL is actually funny again (sometimes)

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

Unless you’re drinking the Obama Kool-aid, you have to admit this is funny!!!!

SNL’s idea of ripping on Bush was absolutely pathetic.  They tried so hard to make him look like an idiot they forgot they are supposed to be comedians.  But it looks like they have their groove back.

Now if only the rest of the show was funny………………………..

Obama asked the question

Saturday, October 31st, 2009

obama asked a question

Obama was asked the question:  Will he forego his current health care plan and go to the universal plan he so cherishes?

Answer:  nah…………………..

Okay, maybe the question wasn’t answered exactly like that, but why beat around the truth?  He did not say yes.  And not saying yes means NO.

Oh yeah, Congress is on board with this too.  They are not going to forego their current plan and switch to their proposed plan either.

What’s good enough for us peasants is not good enough for them……………………

Is it the White House or the Hen House

Sunday, October 18th, 2009

white house vs.     foxnews

The White House is now the Hen House, afraid of being eaten up by FOXNews.

No longer is the White House even acknowledging the FOXNews network.  Which means Obama and Company have apparently decided FOXNews and all of it’s viewers are not worthy of their time.

Michelle Malkin covers the story here:  Who’s behind the White House war on Fox News?

I can’t blame the White House for protecting the Savior from FOXNews.  The Chosen One has said his fair share of blunders and he is a proven liability when talking off script.  The protectors of the Great One know FOXNews will expose him for what he is, a chicken in a coop that needs to be protected.

They give out the Nobel Peace prize for nothing????

Friday, October 9th, 2009

Alright, let’s call it for what it is.  The Nobel Peace prize is officially a meaningless piece of garbage that is more in line with an MTV video award than anything.  First it was Al Gore getting his praise for taking a stance on something that is still unproven.  Now we have Obama getting his award for doing even less than Gore. 

Even the MSM is quite puzzled by this, including Matt Lauer:

Visit msnbc.com for Breaking News, World News, and News about the Economy

 

Everyone knows Obama was given the award for one reason and one reason only:  he is not Bush.  Granted, Obama is following the Bush plan when it comes to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and he will be closer to the Bush timeline of closing Gitmo than the one he promised, but other than that, he is not Bush.  And the rest of the world has as negative of a view of America under Obama as they did under Bush, meaning our image is no better now than before, but other than that, he is not Bush.  Oh yeah, Iran is still the same ol’ country now as they were before Obama, except they are extremely close to having a nuke, so it looks like Obama’s strategy of talking to Iran is working as well as Bush’s plan of isolating them.  Other than that…………
An award from MTV should be right around the corner.

Using kids to push an agenda (again)

Thursday, October 8th, 2009

Pretty sad when kids are used to push an agenda.  Is this enough proof CNN is totally in bed with the left?  The last time I checked, a bunch of kids singing praises about public health care is not news.  It’s propaganda.

And personally, it seems to me the little speech Willy gave was more of a set up than anything.

SNL on Obama

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

Looks like the Obama honeymoon is officially over.

Up to this point, SNL always made Obama look good while making fun of him.  Not this time!!!

Getting the youth on board…….

The Obama crew is now looking to get the youth of America on board with their agenda.


President Obama’s Address to Students Across America September 8, 2009

Talk about indoctrination!!!  If this would be an idea by a President on the right, you know the left would be all over this.  The teachers union would shut it down, the ACLU would be threatening lawsuits, and the media would be bashing it.  But because it’s the Savior, it is all good.

If Barry wants to talk to students, fine.  Say the basic stuff like stay in school, don’t do drugs, crime is bad, education is good, etc…….  And teachers can emphasize the points (which should be done by parents, but unfortunately isn’t).  But the point of BHO talking to students is much more than the basic stuff a POTUS would normally say to students.  This is a political move to influence the youth.

Much like TV commercials and food companies strategically market to children to drum up sales, Obama and Company are targeting the children of America to promote themselves.

Obama supports Brazil offshore drilling, Soros invests

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009

Obama plus   soros equals   offshore drilling in   brazil and lots of   bag of money but not for USA

Obama has decided to borrow a couple billion dollars to Brazil’s state owned oil company, Petrobras, days after George Soros bought 5.8 million shares.

To prove I’m not making this up, here is a link to the Wall Street Journal and  Michelle Malkin from a few days ago.

Kinda funny how off-shore drilling is not allowed within U.S. waters, where it would be a big boost to the U.S. economy by creating jobs and reducing energy costs (not to mention reducing and ultimately eliminating our dependence on Middle East oil).  Yet somehow we can pour two billion dollars into Brazil’s state owned oil company so they can drill in their waters.

Even funnier is that George Soros bought in to Petrobras just days before the loan was issued.

I would like to see this pass that transparency test Obama touted during the election.
