Helen Thomas and Rod Blagojevich What do they have in common?

“ Their colleagues publicly treated both of them as members in good standing of their respective professional communities, until they did things that embarrassed those communities. In each case it was the embarrassment, not the bad behavior, that was the problem. ...  http://chicagoboyz.net/archives/13500.html ”

Governor Moonbeam

Which Statement did Jerry “Moonbeam” Brown Make? Mouse over your answer, A, or B

“ A "It's like Goebbels," referring to Hitler's notorious Minister of Propaganda. "Goebbels invented this kind of propaganda. He took control of the whole world. He wants to be president. That's his ambition, the first black president. That's what this is all about."  California's Jerry Brown, referring to Barack Obama, 2008  ” “ B "It's like Goebbels," referring to Hitler's notorious Minister of Propaganda. "Goebbels invented this kind of propaganda. He took control of the whole world. She wants to be president. That's her ambition, the first woman president.

Attack Israel, Collect $400 Million

“ The USA promises a new financial aid package for Gaza, which means Hamas:     Obama described the situation in Gaza as “unsustainable”, saying a better approach was needed and calling for a “new conceptual framework” for Israel’s blockade. A White House statement said the new funds “represent a down payment on the United States’ commitment to Palestinians in Gaza, who deserve a better life and expanded opportunities, and the chance to take part in building a viable, independent state of Palestine, together with those who live in the West Bank”.          The money will go towards infrastructure projects in both Gaza and the West Bank, including $10m for the construction of new UN schools. It did not explain how the schools will be built while Israel maintains its embargo on construction materials entering Gaza, claiming they could be diverted to make weapons and build underground bunkers.       [full Chicago Boy Jonathon] ” (Yes a work in progress, I can't edit stuff that's not posted.  I'm not a good practice player) Today's Seed Hypothesis: I think there's something else besides raw antisemitism at work here.  I don't mean Obama specifically.  I mean on a global scale.   Think  about it.   It's something entirely in character for Liberals to do. They, with the arrogance to think they can step in front of the bulldozer (that is Earth's 4.54 billion years of continuing evolution), and make it stop.  Oh yeah. To them, Israel is the Carbon Dioxide which elimination will allow the region to cool down.  True, the Arab states  are also CO2, but there are more of them, and they have the influence oil wealth provides. Oh, and Islamos have vowed to kill everyone who defends Israel.  The juice have made no such counter threat, so what the heck. If  one of the two belligerents must go?  Israel.  It's not a Sophie's Choice deal; she loved both children equally.  No, it's just a regular surrender to what they perceive to be the greater threat too them personally, and  Liberals are the planet's designated surrender monkeys.
