Obamacrat Slurs, Snipes, and Smears

Obamacrat Slurs, Snipes, and Smears

The other day, Rush Limbaugh warned whomever eventually wins the Republican nomination for the presidency to be prepared for an avalanche of vicious assaults from the re-elect Obama billion dollar attack machine.

Limbaugh was wrong in one respect: That onslaught began months ago with the only distinction being that the viciousness is mostly emanating from Obama acolytes in his mainstream media rather than directly from the White House.

All this year, we have witnessed every Republican hopeful mercilessly pilloried as soon as he or she gains any traction in the GOP sweepstakes. Pawlenty, Trump, Christie, Bachmann, Gingrich, Cain have each had their turn being attacked. If a day goes by without some leftist guttersnipe taking unsubstantiated pot shots at a candidate, Leno and Letterman are ready to ridicule them at night with nasty derision–all in good fun, of course.

The only Republican to escape leftist castigation, relatively, has been Mitt Romney, leading to conjecture that the left wants him to win the nomination because they expect to whup him, just as Carterites were eager to get at Ronald Reagan.

What was it Obama said about the need for more civility? Evidently, the mainstreamers never got that memo.

One of the leaders of the MSM attack pack, the Washington Post, was apparently running out of ammunition with which to abuse the latest target, Newt Gingrich, so WaPo’s Aaron Blake resorted to the internet to gather more dirt. Blake tweeted for his fellow Twitter tweeps to send him all “outlandish/incorrect predictions and quotes” by or about Gingrich that they could dig up or make up.

Note: Blake was in search of the “outlandish/incorrect” rather than the truth. . .

NYT Outs Obama's Class-Race Warfare

NYT Outs Obama's Class-Race Warfare

Sometimes the mainstream media merely substantiate common knowledge and sometimes the New York Times demonstrates a degree of journalistic ethics by publishing that common knowledge instead of always slanting the truth.

Such is the case with Thomas B. Edsall’s piece, “The Future of the Obama Coalition” which appeared in the Times‘ Sunday “Opinion Pages.”

Summarized, that future involves Obama abandoning hopes of again winning anything approaching the 43% of all white votes he won in 2008 “in favor of cementing a center-left coalition.”

According to Edsall, that coalition consists of people generally considered professionals, including everyone from professors to teachers to therapists plus “a substantial constituency of lower-income voters who are disproportionately African-American and Hispanic,” in other words, a coalition composed of two very disparate groups, the highly-educated and the largely uneducated poor.

What Edsall does not incorporate in his article is a recognition that all but Obama’s MSM idolators and those they influenced to vote for him were aware long before the last general election that Barack Hussein Obama was a radical, socialist racist for whom divisiveness and class warfare were tactics he and the Democrat Party would employ when the 2008 coalitions disintegrated.

Oddly, or not so oddly considering Edsall was writing for the Times, he omits any reference to the president’s support for the latest exemplars of socialistic class warmongers, the Occupy Wall Street nutzos.

Three years ago, candidate Obama succeeded in cashing in on white guilt, the oft-denied sentiment which motivated millions of white voters to cast their ballots for him as a form of reparations paid to African-Americans, to demonstrate they were not bigots, to show they were sorry for the national sin of slavery even though none of them had ever owned a slave.

By virtue of that sentiment, the half-black Obama managed to gain 2% more of the white electorate than did John Kerry in 2004. Those voters have witnessed Obama in action for three years now and the president’s handlers realize many of them, hopefully millions of them, refuse to fall for Obama’s charade again.

They have seen his incompetence, his lack of leadership, his rigid, leftist ideology but most of all they have seen through his pretenses of creating a new era of racial harmony. Beneath Obama’s mellifluous, telepromptered words, they have finally seen the black racism that both he and his wife proudly admitted years ago.

In her 1985 Princeton senior thesis, Michelle LaVaughn Robinson expressed her racial attitudes in numerous ways . . .

Newt

Newt

Former Republican Speaker of the House Newton Leroy Gingrich lugs around almost as much baggage as a former candidate for the presidency lugged around before he won that office in 1992.

The chief difference between Gingrich and William Jefferson Blythe Clinton is that the former’s dirty linens will probably deny him the Republican nomination in 2012 and the latter’s less-fastidious Democrats elected him twice.

Both developments are damned shames.

Despite Democrat claims to be the Party of the People, which may have been true when they were led by FDR and the people were desperate and later involved in a war FDR manipulated, since at least 1964 the GOP has better reflected the dominant sentiment of Americans in all matters save failed social experiments.

Over the years, muddled-thinking wags have suggested that the best of all political worlds would see a Democrat in charge of domestic policy and a Republican conducting foreign affairs. Aside from the unconstitutionality of such a scenario, the country would be bankrupted by Democrats and so destitute we would be unable to function beyond our borders.

However, none of that speculation is relevant to a Newt Gingrich presidency since Republicans are more inclined to lose than to hold their noses and vote for a guy who isn’t perfect.

Newt is anything but perfect from a conservative point of view or from any other point of view, although he is nowhere near the insensitive ogre, the grinch the mainstream media has painted him . . .

Whooping Whoopi Whoops Again!

Whooping Whoopi Whoops Again!

Weeping, whooping Whoopi Goldberg, who doesn’t look even a little bit Jewish and who is virtually idolized by brainless Jews and non-Jews alike during her appearances on “The View,” often gets perturbed.

One would think a Neanderthal would retreat into a cave instead of going public.

A sad excuse for a woman, the Whoopster regularly articulates and reflects her stupidity on ABC’s “The View” and sometimes manages to out-do herself in her efforts at invoking baseless charges of racism at every opportunity, taking umbrage at the truth, and supporting Hollywood pedophiles because they are Hollywood pedophiles.

Goldberg was outraged earlier this year when more civilized African-Americans wisely overlooked her in citing black Oscar winners. She accused black film critics on the New York Times of racism in her omission, an odd accusation unless we consider the source.

She exhibited her ignorance last year when she stormed off “The View” set because she and Joyless Joy Behar disagreed with Bill O’Reilly who had the temerity to suggest Muslims were responsible for 9/11.

She demonstrated her reality-disconnect when she defended child rapist Roman Polanski in 2009 by saying his criminality ”was something else but I don’t believe it was rape-rape.”

Anymore than she could define reasons for her inclusion in the top tier of black Oscar winners or defend her antics with O’Reilly, Goldberg failed to precisely explain what a 45 year old drugging and raping a 13 year old could be called if not “rape-rape.” Consensual?

Once again, the Whoopster has shown her insightful expertise . . . (Read more at http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=6835.)

God and Obama

God and Obama

The nuns used to tell us we couldn’t understand God, information that wasn’t news to eight year olds since we often couldn’t understand the nuns, either.

Still, I eventually picked up on the concept that God was beyond understanding, much like arithmatic, and I accepted the principle of the existence of an Almighty Who, if He wasn’t watching every move we made or taking notes on every time I was impudent, was up there, somewhere, not taking written notes but aware.

Atheists aren’t beset by such mundane concerns since they don’t believe in the existence of any god, opting instead for the belief they and the universe weren’t created but rather are the products of happenstance. Chicken atheists, agnostics, believe only what Thomas the Doubting Apostle believed. They want proof, tantamount to insisting their Creator furnish irrefutable evidence of His existence before they subscribe.

Which brings us to Barack Hussein Obama and what he believes.

Few modern presidents have been overtly religious and many seem to have been “Christmas Christians,” men who visit churches on important occasions such as major religious holidays or for funerals of dignitaries.

Some, like Ike, hosted White House observances, others, like Bill Clinton, rarely if ever went to church and made no pretense of being regular attendees, and still others, notably Jimmy Carter, wore their religion on their sleeves right next to his incompetency pin.

None of this is meant to suggest that that a belief in God is a requisite for the position of president of the United States. It’s not mandated in the Constitution which was designed to permit any natural born citizen age 35 and up who has been a permanent resident for a minimum of 14 years to accede to the office of the presidency.

And, I’m not arguing the “birther” position with regard to Obama, though the jury is still out on that one, nor contending this chief executive’s penchant for vacationing overseas renders him ineligible for re-election because he’s still technically a permanent resident.

However, a president who has a clear aversion to references to Someone greater than he is should be questioned as to just exactly what he does believe.

No? (Read more at http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=6831.)

Scared People, Scary Times: Chris Matthews and Survivalists

Scared People, Scary Times: Chris Matthews and Survivalists

As we reflect on what were hopefully uneventful but satisfying Thanksgiving festivities and begin the annual debauchery euphemistically called holiday shopping, getting and spending until it hurts, it’s worthwhile to also reflect on our times. They are times trying for men’s and women’s souls, taxing for our wallets, and straining on our blood pressure.

As with Christmas Day, Thanksgiving Day is much-anticipated and much-prepared-for but what we wake up to the morning after still presents us with the real world, a perplexing and scary world beyond the scariness of frenzied shoppers pepper-spraying their competition, beyond Black Friday’s greed, beyond imagining to some.

Two news stories illustrate the scariness from widely-differing perspectives, Chris Matthews’ terror that his idol is screwing up royally and midwesterners terrified of the same thing.

The Left’s answer to the extremism of David Duke, the redoubtable and undoubtable Matthews, the allegedly-objective MSNBC commentator who long ago sold his alleged objectivity to the presidential candidate who sent thrills up his leg, is disillusioned.

Poor Mr. Tingles has lately been immersed in a grand funk, funked over the tingle-source, Barack Hussein Obama, who hasn’t quite governed up to Matthews’ expectations although he has lived up to the expectations of those of us who expected the disaster we have in the White House.

Matthews isn’t asking for much from the president, he just wants “something to root for.”

He wants Obama to “tell us our orders, give us our mission” for his presupposed second term. Without mentioning one true crux of Obama’s problems, his clear leadership deficiency, Matthews furnishes a litany of Obamian failures but blames those “with propellers on their heads” surrounding Obama for his insularity, for the fact he doesn’t call anyone to push his agenda.

See a clip of Mr. Tingles whining here http://tiny.cc/pv2ps.

Chris Matthews is the poster boy for muddle-headed liberals, oblivious of this president’s multiplicity of weaknesses and ignorant of the reason Obama isn’t providing marching orders to his troops in his mainstream media or calling anyone with his plans for the future: He doesn’t have any, aside from driving the country to oblivion.

Matthews and Obama may be bewildered but not everyone is.

More ominous than Matthews’ disappointment with the Anointed One or Obama’s inefficacy is the report that many Americans understand full well America’s perils and are battening down their personal hatches in anticipation of Obamageddon.

Construction of housing is at a virtual standstill nationwide but companies that build underground retreats–which used to be called air raid shelters when we feared the Soviets–are booming as we worry now about an impending collapse of civilization.

The U.S.S.R. proved to be a paper tiger; the Obama administration is proving to be a world piñata and a national embarrassment.

In Missouri, the Show Me State, people aren’t looking to be shown anything anymore since they’ve seen more than enough and realize taking swipes at an Obama piñata won’t yield any goodies are stocking up on their own goodies, storable food and supplies, and guns. . .

Thanksgiving, Wishin' and Hopin'

Thanksgiving, Wishing and Hoping

The following is a re-re-print, with 2011 updates, of an article first posted here a few years ago which I’m trotting out once again since I’m a lazy sonofagun and because certain truths never change–and re-publishing them affords me the time to research and post other articles which highlight the sad reality that Americans should cherish Thanksgivings of yore since we may never see their like again. . .

What we should be giving thanks for this Thanksgiving Day because Navy Seal Team 6 executed the barbarian who executed 3,000 innocent people on September 11th. 2001 even if the terrorist threat is still alive and well.

We should be thankful that the Mad Dog of the Middle East is gone even if his replacements may be as bad or worse.

We should thank God for our brave men and women who daily risk their lives and limbs so that the Occupy Wall Street anarchists are free to defecate on police cars and otherwise cause mayhem while the rest of us tolerate them.

We should be thankful President Barack Hussein Obama finally produced a birth certificate even if its authenticity is suspect.

We should be especially thankful for those gifts that are immutable and not subject to the vagaries of personal and national worries.

Most of us have a great deal to give thanks for and those living in America who don’t feel thankful right now should reflect on what their national birthright has afforded them:

. We should give thanks that we are alive and, hopefully, healthy. If not healthy, we should give thanks that we live in the greatest nation on the planet in which to be sick. Our medical system is in the throes of upheaval with Obamacare and was far from perfect even before but it sure beats Bangladesh and it beats Britain’s NHS where the very sick are shuffled off to Bampton.

. We should give thanks even if we disagree with the designation of the United States as the greatest nation on the planet since, unlike your freedoms in many other countries, our borders are wide open and you should feel free to hop the next flight to Ethiopia or Somalia or Moldavia and revel in their attractions.

. We should give thanks that we have a roof over our heads, clothes on our backs, and food on our tables. If you are jobless at the moment and can’t provide the best of those amenities this year, give thanks that you can afford some and resolve to work harder in 2011 so that you will afford more next year.

. We should give thanks that we have a political system which allows us to alter our government, as we did in part in 2010, and far more radically on November 4th, 2008, without a revolutionary uprising which in other nations frequently results in widespread death and destruction.

. We should give thanks to God Who made all that possible by guiding our Founders to create a free, independent, democratic republic which has served us very well for over 200 years.

Millions on God’s Green Earth can’t give thanks for any of the above. . .
