Al Sharpton says that Glenn Beck "hijacked" the day of MLK's famous "I have a dream" speech.

Of course sharpton did not say just how this hijacking took place. That lack of information, makes sharpton's statement, a simple ad hominem.

There just wasn't any hijacking of MLK's speech. How can Beck's insistence on honoring the military and turning back to God, and building our faith in God, be considered a "hijacking"?

It's simply a bad case of Sour Grapes.

Today's headline at NewsBusters.org reads...

"NYT's Charles Blow: Obama Is Not Good For Jews"

Gee... what was their first clue ???? 

FoxNews (and virtually every other outlet) has this headline...

"Obama Comes Out in Favor of Allowing Mosque Near Ground Zero"

All those in favor, and all those against this mosque do recognize that the muslims have the Constitutional right to build their symbol of victory over US Capitalism and American Christianity because they are a "religion", and the First Amentment provides the open door.

The fact that obama is in favor of that mosque, is just another hint that the guy is a muslim, faking allegiance to Christianity by use of the islamic practice of taquiyya. That is, the koran's requirement that the muslim lie in the face of the infidel (us) if it serves the cause of islam.

Islam will now find it easier to get mosques built all over the USA because of political correctness overriding common sense in NYC.

This will contribute to the downslide of all things American, as long as we recognize islam as a religion (and so, protected by the Constitution) instead of recognizing it as a political organization belonging on a list of terrorist movements intent on the downfall of the nation.

The people in favor of building that WTC mosque (except for obama) are deluded in their thinking that islam is a bona fide religion... obama knows better.

Harry Reid (D, NV) asks the question, "How could Hispanics be in the GOP?"

The answer is really simple. You need three criteria...

-- be a legal citizen of the USA

-- read & understand the US Constittion

-- have a modicum of common sense.

That'll do it, harry.

Perhaps this is obama's "Dukakis Moment" ...



Nobody bought into the liberal anti-military dukakis at the controls of a tank... and nobody's going to buy into obama sitting behind the wheel of that turkey, otherwise known as the Chevy Volt.

The government car gets only 40 (that's right... 40) miles before needing a new electric charge. Then it takes 8 hours to recharge it (using a 120 volt source). The cost is "only" $41,000.

At that rate, I'll need obama to pay a few month's of my mortgage each year. Good thing he's willing to do so. Too bad the obama regime has not figured out where all that electric power will come from as those Chevy Volts require recharging. The regime doesn't seem to realize that the electricity will come from oil-fired and coal-fired power plants!

They say the Volt will get 50 mpg with its alternative gasoline engine. But with that low powered engine, you better not plan on going up any hills.  

obama wants his muslim brothers to "feel good" about their "contributions to science, math & engineering."

To that end, obama has required NASA to spend millions of our $$$ to achieve that goal.

obama has already decimated NASA by stopping all work on all the advanced, major space exploration projects. We even are reduced to hitching a ride with the Russians if we want to visit the Space Station.

The million$ will be wasted, since there are no truly monumental achievements made by muslims since their 7th century establishment. Some may argue that they invented algebra. Well, even that's debatable. It surely isn't monumental... how hard is it to let an unknown quantity be labeled with the letter, "X" ? There's no doubt that the great minds like Newton, Einstein, Leibnitz, Poincaire, Riemann, etc. would have formulated algebra's needed for their monumental efforts leading to the calculus and to their giant steps in physics & the other sciences. 
 
No, muslims to this day, continue to prefer to live as though they are still in the 7th century... so no real good will come from the waste of NASA financial and creative resources.

Talk about a political whore...

You've got one in US senator John McCain.

McCain is running for re-election to his senate seat. His opponent is J.D. Hayworth- a nationally known Conservative (i.e., a real one).

NEWSMAX has this headline today...

McCain to Oppose Kagan for High Court

There's just no way that McCain is that Conservative. He just has to look that way, in order to position himself as close to Hayworth as he can. It's just a re-election ploy.

It's kind of like what McCain did about the illegal aliens problem. When he did not have to worry about re-election, McCain stood for blanket amnesty- as did obama & Bush. He even dived into that issue with the McCain-kennedy bill.

Now, of course, McCain is against amnesty and wants the border closed first- just as the Conservatives have been demanding.

Note to the people of AZ:  ... buyer beware...

joe biden has announced that Republicans do not like science.

Let's get this straight... the obama administration has just shut down all the major projects of NASA, to funnel money into his various governmental takeover schemes. Sounds like its obama/biden who will stifle the scientific creativity of the American people for years to come.

With what's left of NASA, obama has ordered them to incorporate all manner of muslim people into its remaining programs.

Hows that gonna work, exactly ?

One problem is that islam is mired in 7th century thought. muslim countries are at least 1300 years behind the rest of the world.

Perhaps a biggger problem, is the eventual joint mission in which we have the possibility of a space flight with both a muslim and an Israeli on board. When that mission blows up in space, the last thing we'll hear from them is... alla akbar. Just watch & see.

obama held a "town hall" meeting in Wisconsin yesterday.

In it, obama decried (and mischaracterized) House Minority Leader (Boehner, R, OH) for representing the obama version of financial reform, as an "ant".

Boehner was of course, showing that the obama version of finance reform will not work- just as not one of obama's other programs has worked, to-date.

For example, obama said that the stimulus $$ trillion was necessary because it kept unemployment at 10% rather than at 14% or higher. Well, that isn't much bang for the buck, is it? The fact is, that if obama had done nothing at all about the economy, the recession would be well on its way to curing itself- just as it has in other years of recession. Fact is, obama promised a maximum of 8% unemployment... and it is stationary month-by-month, at 10% with no evidence of a decline.

Remember how the democrats yelled & ripped their clothing when GWB's unemployment figure was in the 4% range; the democrats said, "We can do better"

Yeah... right.

The Republicans are right, to not want to support obama's socialization of the finance industry. If obama wanted to help, he'd have Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in his regulatory package, and he'd arrest Dodd (D, CT) and Frank (D, MA) for ignoring GWB's persistent warnings that they needed to stop looking the other way while Freddie & Fannie handed out those sub-prime mortgages when there was absolutely no hope of repayment.

obama is worried about the "ant" when he really needs to be concerned about the monster he is creating out of the US Government.

Town Hall Meeting: A Republican meets with a broad spectrum of members of his local cummunity to
                           respond to questions from anyone present, about what (s)he is doing in the
                           Congress.

Liberal Town Hall: A democrat-socialist meets a predetermined number of union members who are
                        sympathetic to the liberal programs (s)he is supporting in the Congress. If any
                        dissention is heard, that person is dragged out and/or beaten on the spot.

obama's speech from the White House had virtually nothing to do with efforts to stop the high-pressure flow of oil in the Gulf of Mexico.

Instead, he spent his time telling us that because of the BP problem, he will push for his idiotic "Cap - Trade" legislation.

But the people aren't buying what he has to sell. Take a look at obama's approval index according to Rasmussen's poll:



The difference between those who strongly disapprove and those who strongly approve obama's actions in the Oval Office, is 20 percentage points. Look at the trend- it's growing wider, even after obama's direct speech to the nation.

obama needed a crisis in order to push his cap-trade plan. Even though BP asked for waivers to drill with unsafe conditions, it was obama's administration (the MMS) that approved the plan of BP- a major contributor to obama's presidential campaign. 

Nobody seems concerned that obama is going after BP instead of introspection into his own contribution to the mess in the Gulf. Too bad obama's own administration will be investigating the primary cause of the gusher... that means the possibility of sabotage will be conveniently overlooked.

South Carolina democrats continue to be apoplectic about the outcome of that senate primary election.

A guy that nobody knows, Alvin Green, won the election 59% to 41% for Vic Rawl. The problem is that Green does not come across in interviews, as a coherent, or even competent individual.

The democrats are saying that the election was "rigged" and they are saying that Green was a Republican "plant" and some of them say that the "voting may have been corrupted."

Republicans deny any involvement. The democrats have no specifics pointing to any wrongdoing.

It appears to many, that the democrats have fallen victim of their own devices. That is, democrats have trained blacks to vote first for the liberal and then, for the black candidate. In this case, both Rawl and Green are liberal and so, SC Blacks voted in plentiful numbers for the black candidate (Green) even though he is totally unknown to them.

Given the same set of circumstances, is there any doubt that SC Blacks would do the same thing again ?

Leftwing extremists have come out from under their rocks again, for another brief display of illogic.

Now they are blaming GWB for the dissolution of algore's & Tipper Gore's marriage. They figure that algore could not remain normal after his loss to GWB in that presidential election- the one where the US Supreme Court ruled that the Florida court could not allow a partial intrastate recount that would have favored algore.

Well, if the left insists on finding stupid causes for the breakup, how about these :

algore's own home state (TN) rejected him in that election. If he had won his own home state, algore would have won the election no matter what happened in Forida.

algore seems to fail at whatever he gets himself into. For example...

     He was a Divinity School Dropout.

     His use fo faulty, phoney "science" has failed to convince normal people
     about man-made global warming.

Both of those are just as likely to be stupid causes of the breakup, as would GWB.

Greek #1: Hey ! You-rippa-dees, I'm gonna retire at age 53 with a full pension and all the healthcare I will ever need.

Greek #2: But I-menda-dees, our socialist government has no more money !

Greek #1: Not to worry... those suckers in the USA will pay the bill for us even though they cannot retire until age 67, with a miniscule pension they call social security.

Greek #2: Oh... those capitalists that we mocked all those years, for not becoming socialists.

Greek #1:  yeah them...  Ha Ha Ha !

Greek #2: Ha Ha Ha

obama had his news conference to score his points on the oil spill in the  Gulf.

During that news conference, obama declared the following...

He said " I take full responsibility " for the oil spill & its consequences.

He also said " BP (British Petroleum) is responsible " for the situation.

It's funny when politicians "take responsibility" for some event. After they take this responisibility, that is the end of the problem, as far as they are concerned. Politicians never understand that a part of "taking responsibility" is to carry the burden of the consequences as well.

In this case, the obama administration is directly at fault anyway... and so he did not need to assume the responsibility that was already his to own.

Why is that?

Simply because the MMS director (a democrat appointee under slick willie) resigned after having given BP a waiver for its continued operation of the very oil rig that exploded and is now leaking.

obama's two contridictory statements clearly show that he is not ready for prime time- that is, he really took no responsibility at all.

The latest Rasmussen Approval Index for obama is a very negative,  -22.

That's based on the difference between those who strongly approve and those who strongly disapprove of obama's performance in the White House.




Why the recent strong decline in this Index? Well after blaming GWB for Katrina, obama was, himself, slow on the uptake in responding to the oil leak in the Gulf. But people also are in an uproar over obama's stand on illegal immigration- namely his stand is to do nothing.

obama will point to the 1200 bureaucrats and other desksitters he just sent to AZ, but the AZ senators had requested 6000 troops to guard the southern border.

obama will have none of that- hence the low approval index.

When GWB was president, the State-controlled LeftWing Press (LWP) revelled in the posting of the US Misery Index. It didn't matter that this index under GWB was quite low. 

The LWP knew that simply associating the labels GWB and Misery, was detrimental to the GWB presidency.

Well under obama, the Misery Index is a lot higher than it was under GWB... and it is consistently higher. 

Take a look at the most recent data, posted on the right, here.  

The obama administration, in conjunction with its LeftWing Press (LWP) staged a discussion between obama's wife and some tiny school kids who had no real idea what was happening.

In that disucssion one little girl admitted worriedly, that her mother had no "papers."

Clearly, obama is after the sympathy vote. But the only vote he'll get from this, is the illegal alien vote. Yes, I know that illegal aliens are not supposed to vote in US elections... but then again, illegal aliens are not supposed to be here in the first place. That's because they're illegal.

If the LWP was really in the business of reporting actual news, then perhaps they could have staged a question like this one:

"My daddy wants to know why barack obama uses a Connecticut Social Security number when he claims to be from Hawaii / Illinois "

The latest Rasmussen Poll has McCain leading J.D. Hayworth by 12 points, for the Republican senatorial primary in Arizona.
 
The people of AZ are self-contradictory, and that frustrates the rest of the nation.

While over 70% of AZ supports the state takeover of enforcement of illegal alien laws, those same people are going to give a pass to McCain.

They don't seem to care that McCain is on record as pushing amnesty, and not emphasizing the construction of a guarded fence along the US-Mexico border. Of course, at the moment, McCain wants a fence and is not talking amnesty... his rightward shift is just to ensure his re-election, though.

Why would the people of AZ want McCain back for another 6 years- during which time he will again revert back to his liberal ways. Why wouldn't they fully suppert Hayworth- a proven Constitutionalist and Conservative?

IDK. 

The candidate obama railed against GWB's use of the Patriot Act. The candidate obama promised he would not use its provisions that enabled eavesdropping on telephone calls between American Citizens and foreigners in suspicious places.

Hey !! Isn't that just what the failed Times Square bomber tried to pull off?

If that guy had been successful, would obama admit that the plan could possibly have been thwarted at its inception, simply by use of the Patriot Act? Of course not. Obama would still find a way to blame GWB.
 
Now the obama justice dept. is claiming that the failed bomber is cooperating, and talking to them. Yet, obama's people are saying that they do not know if the guy acted alone or not... sure doesn't sound like cooperative talking, does it ?

Right now we really could use a patriot in the White House (to enforce the Patriot Act) instead of the apparent illegal alien squatting there now.
