Army Officer questions Obama's authority

Another crack in the dam

“ A U.S. soldier on active duty in Iraq has called President Obama an "impostor" in a statement in which he affirmed plans to join as plaintiff in a challenge to Obama's eligibility to be commander in chief. "As an active-duty officer in the United States Army, I have grave concerns about the constitutional eligibility of Barack Hussein Obama to hold the office of president of the United States," wrote Scott Easterling in a "to-whom-it-may-concern" letter. OBAMA WATCH CENTRAL ” Needless to say there will never be a Gen. Scott Easterling, but there could be a Rep. Easterling one day.  For now, his mini-mutiny serves a good purpose.  It becomes harder and harder for the media to ignore the issue.  When the dam breaks, Obama will have swim, and I don't believe he can.

Three Contractors

Three contractors walk into a bar ...

Understanding Obama's scamulus package

“ Three contractors are bidding to fix a broken fence at the White House. One is from Chicago, another is from Tennessee, and the third is from Minnesota. All three go with a White House official to examine the fence. The Minnesota contractor takes out a tape measure and does some measuring, then works some figures with a pencil. "Well," he says, "I figure the job will run about $900: $400 for materials, $400 for my crew and $100 profit for me." The Tennessee contractor also does some measuring and figuring, then says, "I can do this job for $700: $300 for materials, $300 for my crew and $100 profit for me." The Chicago contractor doesn't measure or figure, but leans over to the White House official and whispers, "$2,700." The official, incredulous, says, "You didn't even measure like the other guys! How did you come up with such a high figure?" The Chicago contractor whispers back, "$1000 for me, $1000 for you, and we hire the guy from Tennessee to fix the fence." "Done!" replies the White house official. ” And that, my friends, is how the new stimulus plan will work. - Alaska Paul

Making Stuff Up

Four Papers in Two! Do anti-Guantanamo editorialists bother to read their own newspapers?

Two days before Barack Obama took office as president, the New York Times weighed in with an editorial--not its first--denouncing the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay for violating the rights of terrorists.  The Los Angeles Times columnist Tim Rutten this Saturday published an anti-Guantanamo rant similar to that Times editorial: “ Of all the collateral damage America suffered on 9/11, none may have been more catastrophic than the Bush/Cheney administration's rejection of our established civilian and military legal systems to deal with the country's criminal enemies. In fact, the murky, torture-ridden parallel gulag they tried to create may have pushed some of the most culpable Al Qaeda criminals--like Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, the alleged 9/11 mastermind--nearly beyond the reach of justice. ” On that very day, both the the LAT and NYT were forced to print a news story carrying the headline "Guantánamo Meets Geneva Rules, Pentagon Study Finds." And this is not a study from the bad Bush Pentagon: “ A Pentagon report requested by President Obama on the conditions at the Guantánamo Bay detention center concluded that the prison complies with the humane-treatment requirements of the Geneva Conventions. But it makes recommendations for improvements including increasing human contact for the prisoners, according to two government officials who have read parts of it. ” This is not an isolated instance of the Left media getting things wrong.  As James Taranto put it, “Everyone is entitled to his opinion, of course. But the Times editorialists and Rutten seem to think that they are immune from Pat Moynihan's dictum that no one is entitled to his own facts.”

Why are at least five Republican Governors saying thanks but no thanks to “Free” Obama money?

“ Consider South Carolina. Its annual budget is roughly $7 billion and the stimulus will send about $2.8 billion to the state over two years. But to spend the hundreds of millions of dollars allocated to the likes of Head Start, child care subsidies and special education, the state will have to enroll thousands of new families into the programs. "There's no way politically we're going to be able to push people out of the program in two years when the federal money runs out," Mr. Sanford says. ” This [Govs. v, Congress] says it all.  I'm disappointed that Sarah Palin had to skip the conference to fend off political attacks, but maybe she'll join in anyway.  Maryland gets 3 Billion of the free money.  Our Governor O'Malley announced he'll use it to purchase "Green" school buses.   The  Maryland State Retirement and Pension System have  $11 billion worth of unfunded pension liabilities, and  Counties 'devour' 40% of the State Budget on Pensions each year, but, we'll have environmentally friendly school buses.  Someone stab me in the liver, please.

Someone sent me this story, and got all worked up, but then it didn't really pass the smell test, so I Snoped it.  Sure enough, it was substantially false.  However, I'd already done a PhotoShopped on it (pretty good, eh?), so what the Hell.  Waste not, want not, I always say. (Really.  I stop and pick up pennies).

This WSJ report about the gummint nationalizing Citigroup “ When federal officials began pumping capital into U.S. banks last October, few experts would have predicted that the government would soon be wrestling with the possibility of taking voting control of large financial institutions. The potential move at Citigroup would give the government its biggest ownership of a financial-services company since the September bailout of insurer American International Group Inc., which left taxpayers with an 80% stake. Under the scenario being considered, a substantial chunk of the $45 billion in preferred shares held by the government would convert into common stock, people familiar with the matter said. The government obtained those shares, equivalent to a 7.8% stake, in return for pumping capital into Citigroup. The move wouldn't cost taxpayers additional money, but other Citigroup shareholders would see their stock diluted. A larger ownership stake by the government could fuel (could fuel?) speculation that other troubled banks will line up for similar agreements ” Simultaneously, Obama tries to halt talk of bank nationalization, and his Secretary of Mayhem George Soros is comparing the current situation to the demise of the Soviet Union.  Non-stop crisis generation since September, eh wot?  Here's a funny (he wept) reaction from the moron camp. “ [Salon's Glenn] Greenwald imagines that militias are again on the rise because Barack Obama is "an exotic other occupying the White House" and because the U.S. is a "declining imperial power," these things upsetting to gun-owning, white folks, apparently. Bill Clinton's election in 1992 gave rise to the American "militia movement": hordes of overwhelmingly white, middle-aged men from suburban and rural areas who convinced themselves they were defending the American way of life from the "liberals" and "leftists" running the country by dressing up in military costumes on weekends, wobbling around together with guns, and play-acting the role of patriot-warriors. Those theater groups -- the cultural precursor to George Bush's prancing 2003 performance dressed in a fighter pilot outfit on Mission Accomplished Day -- spawned the decade of the so-called "Angry White Male," the movement behind the 1994 takeover of the U.S. Congress by Newt Gingrich and his band of federal-government-cursing, pseudo-revolutionary, play-acting tough guys. [The 1990s are back ... .] ” These guys fear constitutional citizen militia like the French fear soap.  Too bad there aren't any militia in these parts, because I'd join one.  At this point I have no fantasy, no realistic fantasy,  about storming congress; I'm looking for an organized resistance to the chaos these people are trying to throw us into.  Someone to defend against gummint thugs in the event Obama suspends the constitution and declares a FEMA free-for-all. Or, against lawless scavengers on the order Mad Max faced if Obama's master plan comes to full fruition.  Ha-ha.  Just kidding.  Everything will be just great.  How about them Oscars?

BALL 4

Rdddddrrrrun Laddie

“ A recent Scottish immigrant attends his first baseball game in his new country and after a base hit he hears the fans roaring  "Run....run!" The next batter connects heavily with the ball and the Scotsman stands up and roars with the crowd in his thick accent: "R-r-run ya bahstard, r-run will ya!" A third batter slams a hit and again the Scotsman, obviously pleased with his knowledge of the game, screams: "R-r-run ya bahstard, r-r-run will ya!" The next batter held his swing at three and two and as the ump calls a walk. The Scotsman stands up yelling: "R-r-run ya Bahstard, r-r-run!" All the surrounding fans chuckle quietly and he sits down confused. A friendly fan, sensing his embarrassment whispers, "He doesn't have to run, he got four balls." "Walk with pr-r-ride laddie!" ” Mr. Juice
