Brown calls woman a whore; NOW applauds

Good Question of the Day

Chicago Boyz Carl asks how in hell does the NOW get off endorsing Jerry Brown?  A rhetorical question since everybody in the free world knows the answer (NOLW)

There's only so many Chris Christies (1) to go around.   I'm not at all sure Meg Whitman can turn California around (unless she gets a hard conservative legislature), but I do know, absolutely, that there is not one thing in Jerry Brown's life on earth that does not scream "FAIL!"

Oh no - she pooped herself!

Dick Blumenthal and Billy Madison

Why God gave us Billy Madison (in case you were wondering)

The assault on privacy

Deja-Donk

“ The New York Times reported this morning on a Federal government plan to put government-mandated back doors in all communications systems, including all encryption software. The Times  said the Obama administration is drafting a law that would impose a new "mandate" that all communications services be "able to intercept and unscramble encrypted messages" — including ordering "[d]evelopers of software that enables peer-to-peer communication [to] redesign their service to allow interception". Electronics Frontier Foundation

Something about this triggered my brainal Clinton deja-vu  alarm. To the archives then!  Posted below are some headers from c. 1997 Free Republic.  Yup.  The bastids never give up.  What really struck me however are some small things, like New World Order Assault On Privacy.  Can you imagine any such alert coming from today's MSNBC?  The NY Times's Online Groups Mount an Effort To Fight Clinton on Encryption similarly surprised, although if I had the full article maybe not so much.  The most jarring thing along these lines though, is from the EFF story. “   In a 1999 decision in the EFF-led Bernstein case, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals observed that     [w]hether we are surveilled by our government, by criminals, or by our neighbors, it is fair to say that never has our ability to shield our affairs from prying eyes been at such a low ebb. The availability and use of secure encryption may offer an opportunity to reclaim some portion of the privacy we have lost. Government efforts to control encryption thus may well implicate not only the First Amendment rights of cryptographers intent on pushing the boundaries of their science, but also the constitutional rights of each of us as potential recipients of encryption's bounty. ” That, from same clown court that just allowed gummint to install electronic tracking devices on peep's cars - without a warrant!  Ay Carumba.     The Deja Donk Part Mockery and Fear Greet Encryption Plan     NY Times / CyberTimes     September 12,1997 By PETER WAYNER     The members of the House Select Committee on Intelligence who voted on Thursday to push for strict controls on    encryption software must have expected to be hated on the Internet, but they probably didn't plan on getting laughed at.

"Now, in 1997, the FBI is pushing the United States Congress to     pass legislation which would make George Orwell's frightening vision a reality." Decoding Provision Defeated     Washington Post     Thursday, September 25, 1997 By Rajiv Chandrasekaran     A House committee yesterday rejected an FBI-backed proposal that would have required data-scrambling software sold in     the United States to have decoding features for law enforcement authorities.

Sniper rifle conversion cost

Sticker Shock here boss

“ October 7, 2010: The U.S. Army has ordered 3,600 upgrade kits for its M24 bolt-action sniper rifles, which will convert them to the M24E1. This will turn the existing 7.62mm M24 rifles into ones capable of firing the .300 Winchester magnum (7.62x67) round. This is a more powerful round than the NATO 7.62x51 round currently used in the M24. The conversion kit includes a new receiver and barrel, a new scope, a new flash suppressor and a folding buttstock. The conversion will take five years and will cost about $7,800 per rifle. (U.S. Army Upgrades To .300 Winchester Magnum) I am in no way questioning the efficacy of the switch, but the $7,800 per rifle conversion price blows my mind.  What does a new m242e cost for god's sake?  A basic Remington 700 goes for $600-700 new.  “ There was another option, and that was to replace the barrel and receiver of the M24 sniper rifles to handle the .338 (8.6mm) Lapua Magnum round. Thus you still have a 17 pound sniper rifle, but with a round that can hit effectively out to 1,600 meters or more. Since this option offers another 600 meters of range over the m242e, without increasing the weight ... why not?   Where's Kim dammit?

Big Brother is a MFCS

A story in August caught my attention, caused me to curse a mighty oath, and move on.  The story, which would have been a major big deal a few years ago, was that the Ninth Circus Clowns of Appeals had okay'd law enforcement placing tracking devices on automobiles without a warrant.  Skip forward.  Does this mean the FBI is after us me? “ Me and my frind went to the mechanic today and we found this on his car. http://imgur.com/OM6nE.jpg i am pretty confident it is a tracking device by the FBI but my friend's roommates think it is a bomb..any thoughts? Edit 1:I should also clarify that the FBI had interest in my friend since his father passed away, as he was a religious leader and they've made attempts at contacting my friend to spew racist questions. Edit 2: i shouldve been more clear when clarifying but religious muslim leader...and i am an ent! : ) but it was my friend's car and he doesn't reddit. My plan was to just put the device on another car or in a lake, but when you come home to 2 stoned off their asses people who are hearing things in the device and convinced its a bomb you just gotta be sure. Edit 3: MORE PICTURES!! http://imgur.com/sspLU.jpg  - http://imgur.com/f4V2T.jpg  - http://imgur.com/srhrK.jpg *edit 4: people keep repeating some posts so i will address the more frequently asked questions here... The device was found near the exhaust but further in, my friend's father was a muslim religious leader, it is not an ex girlfriend that placed the device on his car nor some random other employer or such. he bought the car a little under a year ago and it wasnt there for sure then. * Last EDIT!! I am doing another post because the story has many new developments, hopefully within a few hours. (Reddit cont) Dude forget to mention his father was an Islamo Imamo!  Sheesh.  Never mind.  (more details here if you're interested)  If I find one on my car, now that I know what it is, I'm sailing out into the Bay and attaching it to the hull of a Moravian freighter.

The Real Roots of "The Betrayal"

This is so great! “ In my own forthcoming book, Deconstructing Obama, I ask two basic questions: one is whether Barack Obama wrote the books and speeches penned under his name, and two is whether the stories he tells therein are true. Like D'Souza, I focus on the most important work in Obama's canon: his celebrated 1995 memoir, Dreams from My Father.  - Jack Cashill, The Real Roots of Obama's Rage Cashill uses his own extensive knowledge as he respectfully, but critically,  reviews Dinesh D'Souza's new book, The Rage of Obama's.  It's great because all this obliquely addresses (Obama's birthplace is not mentioned)  something that has, if not driven me nuts, come close to it.  That would be Ann Coulter's pronouncement last year that  "birthers" are kook conspirators.  I felt betrayed. As much as I adore Ann however, she offered no compelling reason for that conclusion, and I dismissed it as either - a "let's not be distracted by a media battle we've already lost," or "I haven't paid much attention to it, but my people* tell me the birthers are wrong" cop-out.  The former is so atypical of someone who'd  fight for Joe McCarthy's legacy, that I rejected it in favor of the other.  *Dinesh D'Souza and Ann Coulter share the same belly buttons.  Back to Cashill. “ Like Procrustes, the mythological innkeeper who stretched his victims or severed their limbs to make them fit his iron bed, D'Souza whacks away at the facts to make his "incredible osmosis" theory work. The severing begins with the story of Obama's origins. In his "essence," D'Souza explains, Obama was "his father's son." In his retelling, Obama's mother, Ann Dunham, served largely as the vehicle through which the absent Obama exercised his will on the young Obama, she being "Obama Sr.'s first convert" to anti-colonialism. To make this storyline credible, D'Souza has to embrace the narrative that Obama rolled out in Dreams and amplified during his keynote speech at the 2004 Democratic National Convention. As Obama told the conventioneers, his father grew up in Kenya "herding goats." His mother he traced to Kansas, as he always did. "My parents shared not only an improbable love," said Obama. "They shared an abiding faith in the possibilities of this nation."  Like Obama, D'Souza sustains this narrative at the expense of the facts, and he does so in several salient ways ...  [The FULLNESS] Obama's birthplace is not mentioned, but it is established that  important conservative philomaths have simply not in this instance done their homework. At best.  I cannot allow myself contemplate any worse reason.

Sarah Palin Instanalysis The GOP, including McCain's own campaign, throws Sarah to the wolves during and after the 2008 campaign.  Not only don't they help her fend off  non-stop legal charges of impropriety from the left, they charge her for clothes the campaign purchased for her!  Ha-ha, so much for the hick interloper who tried to manage her own VP campaign.  Faced with still mounting and ruinous legal attacks she says screw this and resigns as governor.  Not to hide under the bed. Oh no.  To strike back at a GOP machine that had become a stale, vengeful, and politically impotent old lady with yellow teeth and sagging teats. Meanwhile,  a spontaneous revolt against same-old same-old  GOP incompetence was occurring, and there stood Sarah Palin, without portfolio, but Twittering away while  millions listened.  The Big Bang!   I, and millions of others instinctively knew the king was dead and  long live the queen. “ The former Alaska governor has achieved some high-profile successes in endorsing GOP primary candidates. More important from the RNC's viewpoint, she has proved to be a potent fundraising draw for GOP donors. [GOP fundraising worsens]  What?  Sarah's high profile successes were backing  anti-establishment Tea-Party challengers to GOP endorsed hacks.  And winning.  Now the GOP is broke. Here's the roost. “ But many Republican donors, especially the ones who can afford to give the most, have expressed distrust in the financial management of the RNC under Chairman Michael S. Steele, whose first two-year term as party chairman expires in January. [GOP fundraising worsens] Accountability begins.

“ Even though ObamaCare is a novel application of the Commerce Clause because it regulates the act of not engaging in economic activity, the judge concluded that in reality the Commerce Clause power extends to all economic decisions that affect commerce.

“ 7. Surfer Sues Over Stolen Wave One thing all surfers hate is when someone “snakes” a wave that they were in a better position to ride. A California man once took this anger to the courts when he supposedly sued another surfer for “stealing a wave” that he believed was meant for him. The man alleged that he had endured “pain and suffering” as a result of not being able to carve up the surf, and attempted to take the wave thief to court. The case was eventually dismissed when the court stated that there was no way to put a price on the pain and suffering of being denied a chance to ride a monster wave. ” Marco Polo O' Miller

Of course, since government can only create a business environment that discourages growth, something democrats excel at, it was an unanswerable question.   That didn't keep Blumenthal from trying.  All agree that he revealed himself to be an utter incompetent  Well, not all.  Rasmussen's poll yesterday showed that he widened his lead after that brilliant display, proving that Connecticut is only a Manhattan bedroom community, and just as hopeless.

“ For example, I used to play the simple card game WAR with my son. After a while, when he thoroughly  understood that the higher ranking cards beat the lower ranking ones, I created a new game I called GOVERNMENT. In this game, I was Government, and I won every trick, regardless of who had the better card. My boy soon lost interest in my new game, but I like to think it taught him a valuable lesson for later in life. [Joe Sobran]

When I read last week that Joe Sobran had died, I went immediately to my Great Essay file to retrieve his Teach Your Child About Politics. Then I was distracted by something, which is easy to do these days. Ann Coulter's homage to him yesterday reminded me, and I just formatted and posted it.  I am pretty certain that you'll find yourself saving, or at least bookmarking it.   In her piece, Ann wrote: “ Reading through some of his columns after he died and being reminded of what an eloquent writer Joe was, I realized that the best tribute would be to quote him extensively. She does. I found her personal remembrances just as fun; e.g. “ Ironically perhaps, I've often used a Sobran observation to explain why I have a greater affinity to Israel than to the Muslim world after 9/11: Watching a death-match fight on Animal Planet once, Joe said he found himself instinctively rooting for the mammal over the reptile.  Easy reference: Teach Your Child About Politics No Ordinary Joe (Coulter) Thanks Joe

Helping Jan Brewer prevail here boss

First Things First

One of the most outrageous things that's happened in this year of living outrageously, was the 9th Clown Court of Appeals ruling  allowing foreign countries — Mexico, Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Peru and Chile — to join the Obamunist suit against Arizona's immigration law enforcement act.  I of course have exactly the right defense for Brewer, Arizona, and by extension the United States; but first things first. When I went to Politico's story, I winced at the picture of Brewer that dominates the page.  I don't know what you see, but I saw a 66 year old woman trying to look like a high school girl playing beach blanket bongo.  GAH! Now that Brewer's playing high stakes poker, against the most powerful force in the land, she has to look the part.  I was thus compelled to give her a suitable make-over, and I ask you; which Jan Brewer are you most likely to pay attention to?

A new Fox poll released today shows Manchin's Republican opponent John Raese with a 48 percent to 43 percent lead -- ” This ad is reminiscent of those anti-Bush commercial in 2005 (although more civil in tone).  Very effective.

WASHINGTON (AP) - The presidential seal has fallen off President Barack Obama's podium and clattered to the stage as Obama delivered a speech to Fortune magazine's "Most Powerful Women Summit" Tuesday at Carnegie Mellon Auditorium in Washington According to the AP, when Obama heard the crowd sniggering, he thought it was response to his rapier-like teleprompted wit.  When he realized it was because his presidential  seal had, ominously in my view, fallen off, he did what comes naturally.  Blame someone.  In this case "the staffer who hung the seal on the front of the lectern so precariously." Of course, we all  instinctively know what really happened.  Don't we?
