An Epic Win!

Just Poetic

“ Mike Castle was ... the most anti-gun Republican in the House. The implications of [O'Donnel's]  win are huge, not only for the next session of Congress, but also in a potential lame-duck session later this year. Because this is a special election to fill the seat of Vice-President Joseph Biden, O'Donnell will take office immediately following the November election if she defeats her Democrat opponent. Anti-gun congressional Democrat leaders seem intent on a lame duck session, but the addition of just a single constitutionalist to the Senate will go a long way towards stopping any gun control from sneaking through in the waning days of 2010.  [More] ” This is, potentially, the stuff of Hollywood.  Pretty heroine overcomes backstabbing politicians in her own party; is elected to U.S. Senate to replace the corrupt Vice-President, and president of the senate, who breaks any tie vote.  Heroine's vote, for all practical purposes, renders him useless and saves nation.

CRIST HANGING ON BY HIS NECK

“The slight edge Crist held over Republican "Tea Party" favorite Marco Rubio in August has evaporated and turned into a wide deficit as he courts what appears to be a fast- shrinking moderate vote. A Reuters/Ipsos poll on Wednesday showed Rubio far ahead in the three-way race to succeed Republican Senator George LeMieux, with support from 40 percent of likely voters. Crist had 26 percent while Democrat Kendrick Meek had 21 percent. Florida's U.S. Senate election is widely viewed as a referendum on President Barack Obama's handling of the economy, and Rubio appears to be landing knockout punches bashing Obama.  (Reuters) Pass the popcorn

UAS!

In 2006 I wanted to register the domain name USA-USA-USA, and was surprised to find it  available.  Only later did I discover that I'd  actually registered USA-UAS-USA.  I made it a chant; a homage to my careless typing.   Now that it appears to becoming popular, maybe I can use that slime-bag what's-his-face lawyer to sue people who use it without permission.  Like this bakery.  Mmmmm. Free donuts.

New Democrat Logo

Democrats Ditch Flag for Daffy "future of the party"

“     The Democratic National Committee has revamped both its logo and website in hopes of taking on a sleeker, less bureaucratic perception among voters.     The re-design went live on Wednesday morning with an accompanying tag line: "Democrats: Change That Matters." In place of the former logo -- DNC in block letters filled with an American flag -- the committee opted for a capital D engulfed by a blue-band circle. Kaine had touted a "major" announcement about the "future of the party" today, and this is it. Democrats have now taken Obama's car metaphor to its most literal possible conclusion: [MoreFun] ”

Truer words ....

Kicking the Status Quo to the Curb No More Beltway Bozos NOTICE!

“ I don’t like the Democrats because they are statists. They are for big government and more taxes. They are also for mob rule. They want a democratic society, not a Republic. That is a disastrous recipe. Big government always leads to tyranny, democracy lacks the limited government structure of a Republic, which makes it harder for corruption to prevail. Democrats seem to love corruption. They wallow in it like pigs in their own dung. That’s why they seek to undermine our limited-government constitution at every point. You can go back to Tammany Hall right up to today to see their disregard for the rule of law. Rangel and Waters were merely caught. They are far from outliers. I dislike the Republicans because they don’t practice what they preach. They’re supposed to be the party of smaller government and lower taxes. But they are just like ’70s Democrats now. Aside from the Bush tax cuts, they’ve expanded government and spending to obscene levels. When the Democrats came into power they just made the Republicans look conservative by contrast. Less terrible is still terrible. [James Hudnall  continued] ”

'2010 is gone for Democrats'

“ 2010 Is ‘Gone,’ Says Big-Time Dem “He cannot save 2010,” the big-time Democrat is saying of Barack Obama. “It is gone. He must now concentrate on saving 2012. But the biggest fear of some of those close to him is that he might not really want to go on in 2012, that he might not really care.” Read more Roger Simon : http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0910/42100.html#ixzz0zc3URAJo ”

Why Ruth Marcus finds Christine O'Donnell's victory so scary

“ I’m despondent. From the Democratic point of view, the defeat of the moderate, well-known Castle turns what had looked to be a lost cause into a likely win. Keeping the seat in Democratic hands could be the margin of control in the Senate. So the folks who focus on electing Democrats and keeping a Democratic majority can't be blamed for breaking out the champagne over O'Donnell's win. Not me, for two reasons. First, I had thought the silver lining of this election year might be to produce a Senate with a more robust cadre of moderate Republicans. That caucus has pretty much dwindled to the two senators from Maine, with very occasional company from colleagues such as Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown and departing Ohio Sen. George Voinovich. It's awfully hard for a caucus of two to break with the party.  Ruth Marcus ” I pray my giddiness here is not like seeing in the brilliant light of a nuclear blast where I put my car keys.

Has a new legend been born?

“ As soon as the first stack of [Marines] made our way into the bridge, their hands were up, their weapons were down, they moved to their knees and they were compliant,” Martin said. “At that point, they were pretty scared. One guy actually defecated himself. … He sh– his pants. I don’t know if that can go on the news or not, but that actually happened.

Krauthammer v. Limbaugh

The Duelists

Q. When two people you have the utmost respect for square off, holding diametrically opposed positions, who do you root for?  A. The one who's on the right side.

Krauthammer: Palin & DeMint Endorsements of O'Donnell are Destructive, Capricious, and Irresponsible The Limbaugh Rule: Vote for Most Conservative Candidate in Primary Charles Krauthammer: The Palin endorsement, I think, is disruptive and capricious. Bill Buckley had a rule that he always supported the most conservative candidate who was electable; otherwise the vote is simply self-indulgence. Baier: Now Jim DeMint, from South Carolina, also endorsed Christine O'Donnell: Krauthammer: equally capricious and irresponsible. I'm not sexist on this. It's a big mistake.... We still have people who think that professional Washington politicians are the way to fix this, and clearly it isn't.  Some of these people are citing the Buckley Rule.  ...  I know what the Buckley Rule is.  ... You vote for the Republican, slash, conservative who can win.  To me, this requires clairvoyance ... Okay, let's just assume that it's correct. Let's assume that Christine O'Donnell is down in the polls, Democrat polls, by the way, by 25 points.  Okay, fine.  If she's the best option we have to stop what's going on once she gets to Washington, why not try to make up the 25 points?  We got socialism, communism, liberalism on the ropes.  It's too risky?  Let me tell you something.  It's worth the risk.  We're talking about saving the [blank] damn country.  What do you mean, too risky?

Political Satire and Comedy - Rightnetwork

Conservative Comedians - Who Knew?

I know many of you will remember Evan Sayet's five star "speech of the century," How Modern Liberals Think.  Sayet was once a joke writer for Bill Maher, until he couldn't anymore  I ran into him again today at Rightnetwork's Right2Laugh: series premiere (embedded above).  I was fearful going in.  Yes, fearful that this attempt at conservative comedy would be as dreadful as FNC's“ 1/2 Hour News Hour."  What's that?  You never heard of it?  That's right.  Okay, a few of the sketches had merit; very few. Fox dropped it.  Sayet hosts this one, and while I've only watched two sets so far (so excited am I to offer something fun), I'm giddy over the possibilities.  Humor is a powerful weapon, and so far the left has owned the venue.  .

Selling stuff to Islamaos

Thinking the worst of Obama is only prudent Saudi Arabia May Receive $90 Billion in U.S. Arms

“ If consummated, the sale comes at a moment when Saudi society is in flux, facing heightened contradictions. Saudi king Abdullah, who has made various attempts  at social and political reform, remains isolated and opposed by many of his retrogressive family members and the official Wahhabi clerics.  Irfan al-Alawi and Stephen Schwartz ” The Wahabbis of course schooled all (or nearly all) of the 9-11 bombers. Ahem. So here we have it.  A president named (and acting like it) "Hussein," who is famously anti-American in thought, word and deed; and who pisses away a  billion dollars like it was a party favor,  wants this $90B.  Me too, except I know that nearly all of it will be used to solidify his radical political base, just like nearly all the rest of the $900B in "shovel ready" stimulus funds have.  Also, is the technology he is selling comparable to the missile guidance technology Bill Clinton sold to the Chinese Red Army?  Because anything the Saudis get is likely to become available via lend-lease to any group that hates our guts and promises to use it.  I don't for a second think that would bother Barry. I don't trust him. The country can't afford to. Note that I didn't call Obama a prick, so everything here should pass muster.
