COLB

COLB


Texas Darlin's take on Obama's COLB (Hawaii does NOT verify “Smears” COLB)  is he was born in Hawaii, but is hiding his dual Indonesian citizenship.  She also, correctly, points out that this is no time to be distracted by it The comments though are interesting, like this ... .
“ “HONOLULU)(November 1, 2008) Internet powerhouse Andy Martin has ignited a firestorm in Hawai’i over Barack Obama’s bogus “original” birth certificate. Martin won a stunning victory Friday afternoon (October 31st) when the State of Hawai’i backed his assertion that there was an original, “typewritten, 1961″ birth certificate, called a “Certificate of Live Birth” or “COLB” in Hawai’i, that no one has previously seen. Hawai’i officials retrieved and examined the document after Martin filed a lawsuit seeking access to the historic 1961 original.”

This means BHO put up a phony/fake COLB on his website and Factcheck.org…This proves Obama is a liar and a scam artist!!! This is about honesty and character!

We'll deport the sumbitch after the election.  BTW, did you hear that not only is Obama's aunt living in a Boston slum, but she's here illegally?  JFC!  What a scumbag family.  And I haven't mentioned, or published his mother's pi - never mind.

New Car

Crashing Aftermath


We, me and the MoSup, spent most of of the last week on car wreck aftermath stuff.  As you'll remember, MoSup had a mishap on a wet/oily road last Saturday.  We had just finished making the last payment on a 60 month loan.  The car, a Hyundai Sonata GLS/SE (loaded) was in showroom condition, but with 60, 0000 miles.  MoSup had it dealer serviced,  religioulsy following Hyundai's schedule, and had the finish and leather serviced twice a year.

The airbags did not deploy as she slid into the back of a pickup truck (undamaged). She drove the car immediately after, and reported that except for the metal tent outside the windshield, she would not know it was just in an accident.  No fluids were leaking. 

On Tuesday our insurance company called to tell us the car was totaled, and they were paying us $8500.  I was stunned.  Well, the voice said, the repair shop repair (they had the car towed to a Buick dealer) exceeded the "threshold" for our five-year old car. It's an automatic judgment.

I called the shop, and asked what the repair cost was.  $5,7000, the lady said.  Well, I said, I'm better off buying the car from the insurance company, and having it fixed.  At least we won't have a new deck of car payments.  Expecting a "whatever," from her, I instead could hear alarm bells go off in her head. A string of negative reason not to pursue that course followed.
  • You'll never be able collision insure it again, since it will be computer registered as having been totaled.
  • The service guy did not take the car apart, so that estimate was just  what he could see.
  • Even if it's fixed it will prolly never be the same.
For reasons mostly independent of those, we decided to take the money and get a new car while car dealers are in a state of panic.  We went to the shop in order to clean her stuff out, and retrieve the plates.  MoSup told the girl at the desk, the same person I had spoken to, how surprised  we were that it was totaled.  She openrd the folder and said, "Well, it had $6900 worth of damage." The repair estimate had increased $1200 overnight?  Later, she volunteered that "we'll just strip it down and sell it for parts. They?

Bingo.  Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems to me that the person the insurance company is depending on to provide an accurate repair estimate, has a vested interest in seeing the car totaled.  I'm telling you all this  because I want to report my suspicions to the insurance company, so was writing it anyway, and thought some of you may find it instructive.

Oh, we finally replaced it yesterday with a 2009 version of the car she had (she loved it), except this one has something she's wanted for years.  Heated seats.  Everybody's happy again.  Also, she was touched that so many of you expressed concern for her.  So thank you.


Barn Army Poll

RCP Average Map Shows McCain Winning for First Time (AUG 19)
Doo-Dah, Doo-Dah
The top map is the RCP Electoral projection map from August 19, 2008.  McCain was shooting up the charts with a bullet.  Then the sorry underpinnings of our banking system- information about which was available long before, caused a massive collapse of the United States economy, and McCain was blamed??  We are a resilient people. 

It took about 6 months after 9/11 for the nation to forget that we're at war with fascist Islam, and about 4 weeks to forget that the economy is in the tank. All the recent polls are showing McCain once again shooting upwards.   The rollover  is the Official Barn Army Projection.  I'm giving McCain PA, MN, and NH (after careful consideration).  If I'm right, we may be smelling vast quantities of cordite in the air pretty soon.  That is, those who choose to defend themselves will be smelling cordite.  Others will smell burning shingles, wallboard, and tires.  If I'm wrong, everyone will be smelling poopy underpants in short order.

Effete Republican Snobs

Oh, raw-thur! Haw!
As a Conservative, I Must Say I Do Quite Like the Cut of this Obama Fellow's Jib
Raw-ther
T. Coddington Van Voorhees VII

Whether McCain wins or loses, I suspect - hope- that IowaHawk's skewering of the Chris Buckley-George Will, Newport Snob-wing of the effete-right,  signals a post election, Palin-led deck clearing.  Raw-thur, eh wot?
“ When my late father T. Coddington Van Voorhees VI founded the iconoclastic conservative journal National Topsider in 1948, he famously declared that "Now is the time for all good conservative helmsmen to hoist the mizzen, pour the cocktails, and steer this damned schooner hard starboard." In the 60 years since he first uttered it after one-too-many Cosmopolitans at one of Pamela Harriman's notorious foreign policy black tie balls, father's pithy bon mot has served as a rallying cry for conservatives from Greenwich to Chevy Chase. Today, I say it's time for we conservatives to once again grab the rigging and set sail with the flotilla of the true conservative in this race: Barack Obama.

Trust me, I haven't taken this tack lightly. No Van Voorhees has supported an avowed socialist since great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great grandpapa Cragmont Van Voorhees lent Peter Minuet $24 and a sack of wampum to swing a subprime mortgage on Manhattan Island. Old dad himself often recounted how, as a lad, he would command the family chauffeur Carleton to drive the Duesenberg down to the Times Square Trans-Lux so he could hiss Roosevelt. But I've taken a good measure of this Obama fellow, and I must say I like the cut of the man's jib.

How can I say this, you ask? One look at this Obama chap is all the answer you need. Suave, tanned, unflappable, Harvard connections; it's obvious that here is a man to the conservative manor born. [cont]

ZOGBY: MCCAIN MOVES INTO LEAD 48-47 IN ONE DAY POLLING

“ ZOGBY SATURDAY: Republican John McCain has pulled back within the margin of error... The three-day average holds steady, but McCain outpolled Obama 48% to 47% in Friday, one day, polling. He is beginning to cut into Obama's lead among independents, is now leading among blue collar voters, has strengthened his lead among investors and among men, and is walloping Obama among NASCAR voters. Joe the Plumber may get his license after all... ”

Obama's People

“ ”
Good lord.  It appears that blood will run in the streets IF Obama is elected, and Peggy Joseph  figures things out.

Threatens civil war



This most recent incitement to violence is from Erica Jong.  There have been so many of these "warnings," from the left, that it is now a virtual imperative if the Kenyan Wetback loses.  If you think about it, the Bill Ayers faction is in a win-win situation, the United States is destabilized either way. 

I must state again -- the unpleasantness in 1861 was not a civil war, thank God.  It was a war between the states, with clear demarcations.  A civil war is non-stop, 24-7, terror.  We are much better off the first way, and I am in favor of a peaceful partition, with establishment of a free republic we will call the United States of America.  The Obama states can then do what they want, with no interference from us at all. 

Indiana and Franken

Today's YUM-YUMs


Indiana is back in McCain's column, and Norm Coleman is up to 8 ahead of Al Franken.  Check this political commercial featuring Hollywood personalities that Minnesotans have been watching.

Bill Ayers is a communist

William Ayers is a communist.
But don't take my word for it.

"We are a guerrilla organization. We are communist women and men,
underground in the United States for more than four years. "



“ This essay is only about William Ayers' past and present political views. It is not about the connection between Barack Obama and William Ayers. That issue has been covered (and continues to be covered) elsewhere in innumerable news reports and blog postings. Yet as evidence mounts of the extensive and long-standing connection between Obama and Ayers, making their association more and more difficult to deny, Obama's campaign and supporters have started shifting their strategy; Sure, they say, Obama may have had a connection with Ayers, but why is that so bad? Look at William Ayers now: He's a completely respectable man. What -- he protested against the Vietnam War? So did everyone. He's no extremist. I see these arguments made in countless blog posts, comment sections, and even news articles.

This essay exists to stop that political escape route. There's no getting around it: William Ayers was a violent communist revolutionary bent on overthrowing the government and "seizing power" in the United States. The proof is on this page. And the only difference between the 1970s William Ayers and the William Ayers with whom Barack Obama has associated is that Ayers no longer uses violence to achieve his goals. But Ayers' underlying political world-view (i.e. communism) has remained the same.
”
Lots of info, lot's of graphics.  Lots of reasons to fear this man, and these people.

 If you haven't already, spend 2 minutes watching this.  Forget that it's about Ayers.  Forget Obama.  It's important that everybody understand that there are people like this, with goals like these, and holding prominent positions in the United States today.  Today.


A Little Help For His Friends

Found - An Obama Accomplishment!
Oh-oh

I've stated that if anybody could name even a single Obama accomplishment, I'd vote for him.  Does this mean I now have to?  Which just reminded me.  In the past 24 hours I saw, somewhere, Obama actually tell someone on a video that his foreign policy experience was "living overseas for four years."  I am not making that up.

Jews for McCain?

Watching The Sausage Being Made Here Boss
First exit poll of actual American votes from Israel shows big McCain win


On the Bizarre-O-Meter, Jewish support for Obama makes the needle disappear.  So maybe those 76% projections are nuts, as this report could indicate.
“

[NRO]

Within the last hour, the first exit poll of 817 Americans in Israel, who attended U.S. election voting events in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv on Tuesday evening to vote by absentee ballot, has been released.

A startling 76 percent of those polled said that they had voted for John McCain. This contrasts sharply with pre-election polls of American Jews in the U.S., which indicate a strong preference for Obama.

The exit poll findings of American voters in Israel are all the more surprising because less than one in four were registered Republicans, and 46% of registered Democrats living in Israel said they had crossed party lines to vote McCain. By contrast, the Republican crossover to Obama was minimal – just 2%.

The votes are significant as almost half of the 42,000 registered U.S. voters living in Israel come from key swing states including Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania.

In the 2000 and 2004 elections, Israel had the third-largest group of American voters abroad, after Canada and Britain.

The exit poll was commissioned by Votefromisrael.org, an independent, non-partisan organization dedicated to promoting voter registration and participation amongst American citizens living in Israel.

Kindle

Today's $50
I'll predict that one of the hottest gift items this year (adjusted for the economy) will be Amazon's Kindle.  Since I'm the only person here who watches Oprah (wife has the TIVO remote at dinner time), I'll pass this on.  As the Oper said, she's tried all the E-Books that are out there, and found them wanting.  She was so enthused over Kindle that she devoted a major portion of her show with Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, and a priceless promotion of the product (just like she's done for The HIM).  Trust me, you will want the former as much as you hate the latter. At $359 it's expensive.  But if you're going to buy it, do it before Midnight, November 1st, and you can use this


PS ... I know how you feel about Oprah, I do too.  But this isn't about her.  It's about $50.

Don't Stop damn you, Don't stop!

Today's Orgasm
Huge Democrat Turn Out In Florida Turns Into Huge McCain-Palin Gains


You'll want to read this entire HillBuzz post - I think.  Great Merciful Zeus! PUMAs are winning Florida for John McCain! (clip)
“

Democrats have an almost 2 to 1 advantage in numbers, yet McCain leads in the vote totals. RCP has Obama up 3.5% in Florida - totally opposite this massive wave of early voting.  According to a GMU site monitoring early polling Florida is already seeing almost 34% of the total 2004 vote for Florida - stunning. And the advantage for Dems on this site is 45.4% to 39% (including absentee). So with a really high 6.4% advantage in turnout Obama is losing by 4%. That is some massive defection numbers away from Obama. And it would seem a large turnout is not a bad thing at all for McCain-Palin, since it will swamp the Obama strengths in certain demographics.

If this is an indication of things to come, the liberals are in for a rough week. H/T Reader Archtop and Wizbang

GREELY CONCEDES OBAMA DEFEAT
I'm certainly not claiming victory, but I am reassuered when the bad Democrats start making pre-excuses for losing, as does  Rev. Andrew Greeley  (honest, not all Cathoilc priests are pompous socialists).  Hell, Greely has already blamed racism for Obama's LOSS!  Smears mean no black man in White House.
These guys are also blaming American racism.



"Pet Newspaper"

The 'cuda


Sarah Palin has been demanding that  the LA Times release the Khalidi tape.  Listen to this soundbite, it's a joy  (transcript courtesy of Gateway)
“ "It must be nice for a candidate to have major news organizations looking after his best interests like that... Politicians would love to have a pet newspaper of their very own. In this case we have a newspaper willing to throw aside even the public's right to know in order to protect a candidate that its own editorial board has endorsed. And, if there's a Pulitzer Prize for excellence in kowtowing then the LA Times-- You're winning!" ”
The old bulls of the Republican Party, and their media voices (George Will, et al), who've had the effrontery to compare Palin disfavorably with that cipher from Kenya, and his nincompoop running mate, are career finished as far as I'm concerned.

Movin' on out, we hope

Is Obama impersonating Biden,
Or is it the other way?


Obama's grasp of American culture, like American History, is somewhat tenuous, at best.
“

"Can you imagine if you had your Social Security invested in the stock market these last two weeks, these last two months.

You wouldn't need Social Security. You'd be having a, ya know like Sanford and Sons, 'I'm coming Weezy."

Charges possible in boy's Uzi death

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. - Authorities in Massachusetts are considering whether criminal charges should be filed in the death of an 8-year-old boy who accidentally shot himself with an Uzi submachine gun at a gun show.

Hampden County District Attorney William Bennett said yesterday he hasn't been able to find any law that would authorize a child to possess or fire a machine gun.

Christopher Bizilj of Ashford, Conn., died Sunday.

”
The DA " hasn't been able to find any law that would authorize a child to possess or fire a machine gun.?"  How about he focuses on laws that prohibited it.  Or better yet, how about finding out how it happened, and making sure proper safety practices are instituted before the next gun show?
