Racism In (and Outside) America
Probably the 3 most pathetic news items to hit the wires in the last 24 hours are the desparate efforts of Rep. Maxine Waters and Rep. Charles Rangel to blame their ethical violations on racism and the effort of the family of mass murderer Omar Thornton to do likewise.
They’re pathetic but explicable in the racially-charged atmosphere and race-baiting the Obama administration has created in this country.
Gallup has released its latest poll on the president’s job approval ratings revealing, in a nutshell, that there is a marked racial component in how African-Americans think and function.
Gallup reports that “Obama’s job approval ratings among blacks, whites, and Hispanics in July are all at their lowest levels to date, although the overwhelming majority of blacks still approve.”
Thus, in post-racial America, it seems that quite a few people still operate on a racial plane. Blacks, especially, approve of and will undoubtedly again vote for Obama come 2012 although their approval has slipped to a still robust 88% in July as opposed to the 96% that voted for him just 20 months ago.
Since only 38% of whites now approve of the job Obama has been doing, a 50% difference, something seems awry. Compared with the 2008 tally when Obama garnered 43% of the white vote, that’s a very significant disparity since blacks only comprised 13% of the overall vote and whites 74%: http://tiny.cc/ktxwp
So what do we make of that plethora of numbers? . . .

Senate Censorship and the New Black Panther Party
Senate Censorship and the New Black Panther Party
The chronically dysfunctional United States Senate, formerly “the world’s greatest deliberative body,” and the House of Representatives, have devolved into ultra-exclusive clubs for Democrats where Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi conduct business and wield power as if they are blind, partisan tools of the autocratic Obama regime.
Cesar Chavez, the Castro Duet, and every other world despot would be so very proud.
Acting like a rubber stamp for Obama, the Senate has adopted a policy of shutting out Republican input, such as during the long, volatile health care debate and more recently with the unemployment extension, and then brazenly denouncing the GOP for obstructionism.
Vermont’s Senator Pat Leahy is the latest to demonstrate that we are now living with a government of, by, and for the Democrats who have as much respect for the American people as they do for the loyal opposition which, when they were in control, often chose bi-partisanship over strictly one-party rule.
Fools.
Leahy, Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, last week attempted to squelch and censor further inquiry into the mushrooming scandal surrounding Eric Holder’s Justice Department, the black racist New Black Panther Party, and the dropping of the virtually air-tight case of voter intimidation against the NBPP by the Obama-Holder DOJ. . .

Cojones and Our Ruling Enemy
Cojones and Our Ruling Enemy
Whatever the Left says about former Alaska governor Sarah Palin, and they say a great deal, they can never say she fails to speak her mind.
You betcha, she does!
Like VP Joe Biden, but devoid of Biden’s inanity, Palin tends to think out loud as she did on “Fox News Sunday” in commenting on President Obama and his administration’s selective enforcement of the law.
When Governor Jan Brewer and the state of Arizona elected to enforce federal immigration law since the federal government has failed to do so, Obama and his Justice Department and the Department of Homeland Security denounced the Arizona statute, SB1070, without bothering to read it, then went to court to sue a sovereign state.
Essentially, the administration contended that Arizona had no right to usurp federal law which superseded state law. They won a temporary injunction levied by United States District Court Judge Susan Bolton.
Governor Palin objected not only to the lawsuit but to the federal government’s failure to enforce its own laws equally. Arizona was deemed not in compliance but the 31 American cities which are self-designated “sanctuary cities” and which have instituted ordinances, effectively local laws, in violation of federal laws were given a free pass.
Among other issues, Palin addressed that inequity, that selective law enforcement, and denounced the president as lacking “the cojones” which Governor Brewer has: http://tiny.cc/w6sgp
Aside from the technical impossibility of a woman possessing those male appurtenances, Palin’s remark is right on the money. (Incidentally, before liberals start attacking Palin for having a potty mouth, then-U.N. ambassador Madelyn Albright used the same graphic terminology in reference to Cubans back in 1996.)
Obama and Company wink at cities . . .

Hyperbole Morphing into Reality: America's Looming Revolution?
Hyperbole Morphing into Reality: America's Looming Revolution?
It’s easy to engage in negative hyperbole in discussing the current president even if that exaggeration sometimes seems unfair.
His policies, his associations, the statutes and regulations he and his swampy congress have pushed through, the now-exposed media conspiracy to grease his way into office and cover up his gaffes and flaws, the national upheaval and divisiveness he has created naturally lend themselves, and him, to occasional, irrational overreaction.
No president has ever won the hearts and minds of 100% of the American people; even George Washington was disparaged by some former Tories. However, from his inauguration and in the campaign leading up to November 4th, 2008 when he so often slipped and tipped his hand as to his true designs on the country, this chief executive escaped general distrust.
At the inauguration he insisted on taking the oath of office using the middle name he never really used; during his run for the presidency he kept preaching but never defined “change” and slipped and admitted what should have been incriminating ideas such as his Saul Alinsky-Marxist plan to “share the wealth.”
The mass media let it all slide, never doing its job, never inquiring and investigating his reasons for suddenly invoking the name Hussein, never asking what specifically he meant by sharing the wealth and just how he would accomplish that redistribution of Americans’ hard-earned money.
The bitter fruits of his socialistic thinking and scheming are daily becoming more and more apparent so is it any surprise that people, many of whom supported and voted for him just 20 months ago, have become so disenchanted, frustrated, and furious with Barack Hussein Obama that their emotions sometimes get the best of them and they hyperbolize their feelings? . . .

Overstepping Part Three--Prince Charles, Savior of the World
Overstepping Part Three--Prince Charles, Savior of the World
I lost all respect for England’s Prince Charles after I read that he was overheard via an illicit telephone tap telling his illicit lover Camilla Parker Bowles that he wanted to be reincarnated as her tampon.
Or maybe it was when I heard that among the duties of his faithful man servant Michael Fawcett was to squeeze toothpaste onto the prince’s toothbrush and to hold the cup while the prince gave a urine sample.
Or maybe I’m lying and I never did have any respect for Charles Phillip Arthur George, Prince of Wales and Earl of Chester, Lord of the Isles, Duke of Rothesay, Knight of the Most Ancient and Most Noble Order of the Thistle, Chief Royal Cook and Most Noble Bottlewasher.
Okay, he really doesn’t have that last title but he has been granted the others and a few dozen more.
All those undeserved, honorary titles have finally gone to his head and penetrated that miniscule royal brain lodged between those Dumbo/Obama ears and he’s so delusional now that, as the UK’s Daily Mail is reporting, “The Prince of Wales says he believes he has been placed on Earth as future King ‘for a purpose’–to save the world.”
That belief may be wrong on various counts, the first of which is that he may not be the future king of England, with or without a purpose. . .

Overstepping: Part Two--Lame Ducks and Amnesty
Overstepping: Part Two--Lame Ducks and Amnesty
You’ll never go broke betting on the treachery and deceitfulness of politicians.
We saw a classic example last week with the unemployment extension which Democrats could have passed on their own but instead insisted on a two-thirds vote rather than a simple majority in order to embarrass the Republicans three months before the elections.
It lost, as per the Dem plan.
Democrats seem to be plotting more treacherous shenanigans with regard to the amnesty for illegals issue, something Obama and his storm troopers would love to grant in order to garner millions more votes when amnesty is followed by citizenship. And what better time could there be to pull off that scam than during a lame duck session following November 2nd should the Democrats lose the House?
Charles Krauthammer suggests that ousted and retiring Dems, with nothing to lose and no backlash to face, could use those 2 1/2 months before the 112th congress convenes in January to foist all kinds of ideologically controversial laws on the American people before they vacate the premises . . .

Overstepping: Part One--the Insult that Is the Monster Mosque
Overstepping: Part One--The Insult that Is the Monster Mosque
Now that Chelsea and Marc’s nuptials are over and I can take a deep breath and my heart can stop excessively pittypatting from the excitement, we can all sit back and wait for news on whether a ketuba was signed, a canopy used, and a glass broken as is all traditional in Jewish wedding ceremonies.
It’s hard to imagine after that star-studded multi-million dollar event staged by luminaries of the Democrat Party of the Common People that other things were actually happening in the world, things that reflected an obtuseness, an ignorance of the fact that one can push just so far before people will push back, things that showed people were overstepping their bounds.
Examples of recent overstepping involve the Monster Mosque at Ground Zero, the sneaky shenanigans on amnesty on Capitol Hill, and the future king of England, never the brightest color in the royal crayon box, once more making a complete ass of himself.
The Mosque: In an interview with NY1, New York Republican candidate for governor, Carl Paladino, who has as much chance of being elected as Mayor Bloomberg would have being elected mayor of Riyadh, was free to speak his mind. His mind, soul, and body are viscerally committed to preventing the erection of a huge mosque, cultural center, library, restaurant, gymnasium, auditorium two and a half blocks from Ground Zero. . .
