Hockey Salutations, Flying Accusations, Debt Corrections
Believe it or not, news reports don’t always get stories accurate or complete and sometimes don’t get them at all.
Let’s start with one that received little play in the mainstream media, the commendable story of an NHL player who had the gumption to effectively tell the president of the United States to stick an invitation to the White House in his hat.
The belated invite was extended to the Boston Bruins almost a year late, coincidentally during a presidential election year, ostensibly to honor the team’s 2011 Stanley Cup championship.
Celebrated Bruins’ goalie, Tim Thomas, winner of the Vezina Trophy, opted to pass on the privilige of having the president pat him on the back–and get some much-needed publicity before November 6th.
Not content with the snub and surely causing cringing in the Bruins’ executive offices, Thomas explained the reasons for his protest.
As he said, ”I believe the federal government has grown out of control, threatening the rights, liberties, and property of the people,” although he backtracked slightly by adding that his decision “was not about politics or party, as in my opinion both parties are responsible for the situation we are in as a country.”
Thomas is right on all counts.
I wouldn’t even suggest Thomas believes President Barack Hussein Obama is the primary reason “the federal government has grown out of control, threatening the rights, liberties, and property of the people” and I extend him kudos for having the nerve to speak his mind and absent himself from an obviously political campaign appearance.
Another story relates to the historical accuracy of producer George Lucas’ newly-released film “Red Tails.”
Acclaimed by everyone except the people who understand movies, film critics, “Red Tails” is a World War Two action flick featuring a virtually all-black cast and dealing with the exploits of the U.S. Air Corp’s Tuskegee Airmen, an anomoly at the time in a segregated military.
There is no doubt as to the racial segregation in our military prior to President Truman’s abolition of the practice in 1948. Likewise, there is no doubt the Tuskegee black fliers served their nation well in WWII primarily in bomber escort missions with the 332nd Fighter Group.
There is, however, much doubt concerning the Tuskegee Airmens’ claim for tears that they never lost a bomber during those European missions. There are also substantiated reports they sometimes acted less than heroically and less than competently. . .

It's Gingrich Time!
It's Gingrich Time!
All things come to those who wait and now it’s Gingrich’s turn. With the race for the Republican nomination for president seemingly narrowed to a pack of two, Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich, it was time for the Obama attack team to zero in on Newt since he has been waxing of late and Mitt has been stagnating.
Adhering to the military strategy of focusing on offing the leader, the Obamians have been dismantling the front runner until he is beaten to a pulp then deal with the remnants of the field. It worked with Bachmann, Perry, and Cain so why not go with whatever works?
Of course, even when he was bringing up the rear, Gingrich received his allotted share of undercutting but it’s a whole new ballgame now that he’s in the lead. The Big Guns are being trotted out to reduce him to size, if not to a quivering shadow of his former self.
However, with all his faults and baggage, Newt represents a lot of candidate to cut down and he’s not known to quiver much.
And, to utilize a tempting pun, his quiver is chock-full of arrows with which to bring down Obama, chiefly his knowledge, experience, intelligence, and debating expertise, all of which constitute fearsome forces to reckon with and the re-elect Obama team has evidently been doing a great deal of reckoning.
The latest Democrat stalwart to join the Democrat attack machine isn’t known for her intelligence or expertise in anything other than winning her own re-election in a super-safe congressional district and just launched her initial salvo of innuendo intended to inflict damage on her former House colleague.
House Minority Leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi didn’t really say anything of substance to Talking Points Memo but rather, in her sly fashion, tried to smear and intimidate Gingrich with a threat.
As she inelegantly put it without elaboration, “When the time is right. . . I know a lot about him. I served on the investigative committee that investigated him, four of us locked in a room in an undisclosed location for a year. A thousand pages of his stuff.”
Just think about it. An investigative committee of four so far un-identified individuals investigating an arch political enemy for twelve months behind non-transparent doors and compiling “a thousand pages of his stuff.” It’s a wonder they didn’t find Newt guilty of pulling grandma’s plug and tossing babies into wood chippers!
Imagine any committee secretly investigating Barack Hussein Obama for a year! They could determine he was born in Nairobi, his father was a confirmed Marxist drunk, and his mother had this peculiar thing for Muslim men. . .

Let's Go for Broke! Default Now!
Let's Go For Broke! Default Now!
Debt default seems academic at this point what with the announcement out of Washington Sunday night that a tentative deal had been brokered on the debt ceiling. However, the operative word there is “tentative.”
With reservations, Senate Majority Leader Reid likes it, which could and should be the kiss of death in the House. Speaker Boehner is ambivalent but believes it’s in line with GOP principles although, as a RINO, his view of those principles don’t jibe with conservative principles. House Democrat Minority Leader Pelosi isn’t sure what she thinks and will probably wait until the deal is consummated before reading it. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell greased the skids for the agreement but can easily wash off the grease if it goes badly.
In sum, the vaunted deal will not become a done deal until the overweight lady sings her approbation and shouldn’t be approved since the so-called compromise accomplishes nothing substantive aside from authorizing the president to tack on a few more trillion to the federal debt.
Balanced budget? They’ll work on it. Cuts in spending? Piddling, but they’ll work on that too and appoint another toothless commission to study them. Re-structuring Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, the most crushing crises facing America? Not even on the table.
Barring a temporary debt ceiling hike postponing the inevitable, what if America defaults Monday night at 11:59:59 p.m.?
That scenario is now unlikely since the party in favor of fiscal sanity has once again compromised and the party favoring taxing and spending the United States into financial oblivion seems about to get its way, once again, but, just for the jollies, what if we do default?
Who would be held responsible? What would be the effects of a default? Who would emerge the winner and who the goat? . . .

Hyperbole and Insanity in D.C.
Hyperbole and Insanity in D.C.
It’s sometimes challenging to attempt to separate the wheat from the chaff, the real from the unreal, the merely mistaken from the blatantly hyperbolic, the dumb from the patently maniacal ideas and blatherings emanating from Washington, D.C. nowadays.
Okay, it’s always a challenge and not just lately. Of late, however, some of the chaffish, unreal, hyperbolic rantings from Democrat politicians lead objective observers to wonder whether some of their ilk have gone, literally, insane.
If not for the state of the art air conditioning in the Capitol, I could attribute it all to the effects of D.C. heat.
A leader of the Dem pack, former and wannabe-future Speaker of the House, multi-millionaire Nancy Patricia D’Alesandro Pelosi, (CA), has always been an enigma to those who were mystified as to how a DNC hack could rise to the position of third in succession to the presidency of the United States.
In her role as Speaker, Pelosi further mystified with ineptitude supplemented by outrageous ignorance, more graciously termed inexperienced naiveté, as when she freely admitted she hadn’t the bloodiest idea of what was contained in the most significant social legislation her House had passed in generations, Obamacare.
Saying we would all have to wait until the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act was rammed through on Christmas Eve, 2009 before we–and she and her fellow Democrats who had done the ramming–would know what the PPACA contained should have led to her summary impeachment. Instead, it led to accolades for Pelosi’s leadership.
Go figure.
What is beyond figuring are the most recent statements of this current Democrat Leader of the House and her congressional cohorts.
On Thursday, Leader Pelosi delivered what may best be described as a head-shaker regarding the debt limit debate, which the Senate Majority Leader on Friday all but guaranteed would go down to the Tuesday wire.
Rep. Pelosi clarified the essential issue in that debate for us nincompoops who just can’t grasp essentials when she said, “What we [that would be Democrats] are trying to do is save the world from the Republican budget. We’re trying to save life on this planet as we know it today.” (http://bit.ly/ql288h)
Got it now, fellow nincompoops? And you thought that Obama spending scarce taxpayer money like a drunken Dem and adding trilions to the national debt in just 28 months, his refusal to accept the Republican proposal for a balanced budget, and his demonstrable financial ineptitude were the problems! You probably also believe legislation should be read before it’s approved!
We should trust Aunt Nancy to preserve the planet, all life thereon, and the American way, forever and ever. Amen.
Harry Reid (NV) is another Dem who has either gone over the rhetorical top–or has simply gone bonkers. . .

HR4646: The Damned Democrat 1% Solution for What Ails Us
HR4646: The Damned Democrat 1% Solution for What Ails Us
. . . Well, those Dems are at it again with HR4646. Compounding their deceit and since they were unable to pass it in 2009, it will be shelved until after the 2012 election, assuming they win.
When first proposed, then-Speaker Pelosi said of HR4646, “I believe that the transaction tax still has a great deal of merit” and would have a “really minimal impact on the transaction, but a tremendous impact on helping us meet our needs.”
From the perspective of the multimillionaire Pelosi family, the 1% tax/fee might be really minimal. From the perspective of real Americans, the impact would be really significant.
Even liberal-leaning Snopes.com expressed outrage in its article, “The One Percent Solution,” subtitled, “The Transaction Tax WHAT THE HELL IS THIS??” (Snopes’ emphasis) . . .

What We Hope They Say in 2011
What We Hope They Say in 2011
“What They Said in 2010,” http://tiny.cc/cbuy3, featured “an annotated melange of ignorance and arrogance, of wisdom and stupidity, of betrayal and allegiance” in the words uttered by mostly American political figures. “What We Hope They Say in 2011″ deals mostly with wishful thinking about what some of those notables might say.
Nancy Pelosi: “Okay, I admit the whole Obamacare debacle was a mistake from beginning to end but what was I to do after the president declared it his top priority and since it became the signature issue, the legacy issue of his presidency? Notice we Democrat congresspeople and senators made certain Obamacare didn’t apply to us, though. Pretty clever, I think, although I have to resign my seat since I feel so guilty over duping the American people.
VP Joe Biden: I don’t think it was that stupid whisper to Barack that passing Obamacare was “a big f*cking deal!” After all, it was a big f*cking deal and nobody was supposed to be listening anyway! It wasn’t any dumber than saying, ”the number one job facing the middle class [is]: jobs. J-O-B-S” or saying that FDR described the cause of the stock market crash on television, or telling crippled Missouri State Senator, Chuck Graham, to stand up or saying that “In Delaware, the largest growth of population is Indian Americans, moving from India. You cannot go to a 7/11 or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent” or any of the many other stupid things I’ve said! It’s no f*cking big deal but I’m quitting!
Imam Rauf: All Americans suck pork. My Ground Zero mosque won’t be built and it’s all their fault that Muslims won’t be able to celebrate our great 9/11 victory and stick it in their infidel faces when we opened that great edifice this September. Don’t say I didn’t warn you that Muslims are madder than a Muslim at a pig roast. I am going home to Egypt where I can wage jihad against you pig eaters and, by the way, I was only kidding about being a bridge builder so, there, joke on all infidels! Ha, ha.
Rep. Charley Rangel: Ethics, schmethics! . . .

What They Said in 2010
What They Said in 2010
Selected quotations from FoxNews.com’s “The Year in Quotes,” (http://tiny.cc/rv9oc), an annotated melange of ignorance and arrogance, of wisdom and stupidity, of betrayal and allegiance:
Former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, explains why America needed the obscene monstrosity called Obamacare: “But we have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it, away from the fog of the controversy.” Why read the damned thing or permit Americans to know what was in it when you can utilize that “fog” to perpetrate a disaster on the public?
Current Vice President of the United States, Joe Biden, comments sotto voce to the commander in chief on the passage of that obscene monstrosity, demonstrating why he also merits the title of Oaf in Chief: “This is a big f*cking deal.” There’s no word on whether Joe kisses his wife with that mouth but word is out that he will be invited to take his f*cking mouth back to Delaware in 2012.
Sitting President of the United States, Barack Hussein Obama, defends his slacker ineptitude over the BP Gulf oil spill: “We talk to these folks because they potentially have the best answers, so I know whose ass to kick.” Knowing “whose ass to kick” is one thing for a president. Knowing how, when, and where to do that kicking seems to be one his biggest challenges.
Imam Feisel Abdul Rauf warns Americans not to dare to prevent the construction of his Ground Zero mosque in celebration of Islam’s victory on September 11th, 2001: “If we don’t do this right, anger will explode in Muslim world. This crisis could become much bigger than Danish cartoon incident.” The imam should be made aware that American anger against Islam exploded with those buildings on 9/11 and he and his ilk have yet to feel the full and violent wrath of that explosion. . .

(Tim) Bishop Morphs into (Nancy) Pelosi Pawn
(Tim) Bishop Morphs into (Nancy) Pelosi Pawn
Long Island, or Lawn Guyland to some, has been my home for 41 of my 68 years, after successfully escaping the Democrat-infested New York City borough of the Bronx, aka the Bronix. I never thought I would end up in the political equivalent of the Bronx on Long Island.
Until recently, most of Long Island, save enclaves such as the super-ethnic cities of Long Beach and Glen Cove and the super-hellholes of Hempstead, Roosevelt, Central Islip, and Wyandanch, had been securely ensconced in the Republican voting column from its creation and had prospered there.
That ensconcement has been changing over the last decade as more and more denizens of the Third World, particularly the Latina world, have settled here, most sans green cards and many sans any regard for the laws, traditions, and beliefs of the country they have invaded.
The times, they have been changing but like most societal pendula tend to do our social pendulum is slowly swinging back as original Long Islanders attempt to re-claim what is theirs, as rightfully theirs. America rightfully belongs to those who love it above all other nations and we plan on re-claiming it.
Signs of that reclamation were forestalled in 2002 in New York’s, Long Island’s, First Congressional District, a seat long-held by staunch Republicans when a staunch arch-liberal Democrat, Tim Bishop, won that seat.
The pro-abortionist, ostensibly Roman Catholic Bishop, 60, former Provost at Southampton College in which role he presided over the dissolution and bankruptcy of that fine school, was rewarded for his liberality with the Democrat nomination for congress eight years ago. He won that contest by 3,000 votes in 2002 against an inferior Republican candidate and, like most incumbents, has been locked into his East End seat ever since.
From the outset, Bishop joined himself at the hip and groin with the left wing elements of the House of Representatives and since 2006 has become a virtual clone of the Shrieker of the House, Nancy Pelosi. This bishop has evolved into a soul-less pawn of the White House and of the Shrieker with no regard for the wishes and sentiments of the people of his district.
Correction: for the majority of his constituents. . .

Religious Hypocrisy and the Denver Broncos (Separate Issues)
Religious Hypocrisy and the Denver Broncos (Separate Issues)
Of the 5,100 bishops in the Catholic Church worldwide, nary a one is a woman, unless we count Bishopress Nancy Pelosi of the First Congressional Church of God who occasionally tends to act and speak as if she were an ordained prelate of the Church.
Her chief problem in that role of bishopress is similar to the one Pelosi faces as Speakerette of the House of Representatives: She doesn’t know what she’s talking about and, when she does speak, she rambles incoherently and much of her audience is more preoccupied in identifying where she got her last Botox shot rather than in the words of Catholic religious wisdom she vainly attempts to impart.
Pelosi ”publicly stated earlier this year that she had a duty to pursue policies ‘in keeping with the values’ of Jesus Christ, the ‘Word made Flesh.’ But at a press briefing last week, when reminded of this statement, Pelosi declined to say when Jesus got the right to life.”
Poor Pelosi was in a sorry state, faced with a positively preposterous problem, a querulous quandary.
In that, Pelosi was akin to some Denver Bronco fans but more about them later.
Bishopress Nancy, a nominal Catholic, was confronted with a conundrum: How can a Catholic, nominal or not, legislatress defend the values of Jesus Christ, the Word made Flesh, and at the same time be an ardent supporter not only of abortion but of the most radical type of abortions, infanticide in the form of what doctors call intact dilation and extraction?
She thought and thought and thought about the question of when Jesus earned the right to life and then responded by saying, “Whenever it was, we bow our heads when we talk about it in church, and that’s where I’d like to talk about that.”
Umm, duh and wow!
Pelosi outdid herself on that one, not only by refusing to answer but by lying that “we bow our heads when we talk about it in church. . ."

Of the 5,100 bishops in the Catholic Church worldwide, nary a one is a woman, unless we count Bishopress Nancy Pelosi of the First Congressional Church of God who occasionally tends to act and speak as if she were an ordained prelate of the Church.
Her chief problem in that role of bishopress is similar to the one Pelosi faces as Speakerette of the House of Representatives: She doesn’t know what she’s talking about and, when she does speak, she rambles incoherently and much of her audience is more preoccupied in identifying where she got her last Botox shot rather than in the words of Catholic religious wisdom she vainly attempts to impart.
Pelosi ”publicly stated earlier this year that she had a duty to pursue policies ‘in keeping with the values’ of Jesus Christ, the ‘Word made Flesh.’ But at a press briefing last week, when reminded of this statement, Pelosi declined to say when Jesus got the right to life.”
Poor Pelosi was in a sorry state, faced with a positively preposterous problem, a querulous quandary.
In that, Pelosi was akin to some Denver Bronco fans but more about them later.
Bishopress Nancy, a nominal Catholic, was confronted with a conundrum: How can a Catholic, nominal or not, legislatress defend the values of Jesus Christ, the Word made Flesh, and at the same time be an ardent supporter not only of abortion but of the most radical type of abortions, infanticide in the form of what doctors call intact dilation and extraction?
She thought and thought and thought about the question of when Jesus earned the right to life and then responded by saying, “Whenever it was, we bow our heads when we talk about it in church, and that’s where I’d like to talk about that.”
Umm, duh and wow!
Pelosi outdid herself on that one, not only by refusing to answer but by lying that “we bow our heads when we talk about it in church. . ."

Obama's Rich Time Warp
Obama's Rich Time Warp
When the president tires of babbling that “Bush did it!” he now has another phony mantra: Those Rich Rascally Republicans are the problem.
In his ongoing program of promoting class warfare, Obama trotted out his latest lie on Saturday when he blamed obstructionism in Congress as being caused by that party of the rich, the Republicans, citing especially Republican opposition to extending unemployment benefits.
He conveniently omitted any reference to the multi-billion dollar cost of that addition to the already bloated federal budget. He also forgot to mention the Republican effort to seek a compromise on the issue by using stimulus monies to defray the cost, which idea Harry Reid immediately shot down.
In point of fact, the Democrat Party long ago stopped being the Party of the Common Man or the Party of the Working Class and any financial advantage Republicans had over Democrats in the past is inapplicable today. The millions in Obama’s inner city base may lower the average income disparity but factor in the number of wealthy Democrats in Congress and the power they exert and that disparity disappears.
A brilliant analysis and insightful column by Star Parker on WorldNetDaily.com highlights the truth about rich and poor in America and why the poor are going to stay that way. . .

These Are Our Leaders?
These Are Our Leaders?
Leadership has been defined as “a process by which a person influences others to accomplish an objective and directs the organization in a way that makes it more cohesive and coherent.”
We look to our leaders and others in authority to show us the way, to inspire and to motivate whether on a national, state, or local level and in our daily lives. Everyone can’t be a leader; with all chiefs and no braves, we would have chaos so those who assume the mantle of leadership have a unique obligation to show the way.
What we have in America today is a dearth of true leaders, a crisis of leadership in that many of our leaders seemingly haven’t the foggiest notion of what their responsibilities are and how to fulfill them. They may be accomplishing their narrow personal goals but they all but ignore their broader national leadership mandates.
They don’t know how to lead.
A prime case in point is our attorney general,. . .

Bordering on Stupid
Bordering on Stupid
Amid the ongoing border babble, one question is rarely asked or addressed, namely does the United States even want to have secure and inviolable borders. For all intents and purposes, it doesn’t seem as if we do, at least not on the federal level.
It’s worthwhile to remember that the porous border problem existed long before Barack Obama took office. President George W. Bush for 8 years showed no inclination to seal our southern border and Obama is simply continuing that policy of inaction.
Whether based on purely political considerations, catering to the Hispanic vote, or business interests, staffing menial jobs with millions of illegal immigrants, both Bush and Obama seemed to agree that an open border was in their best interests and the interests of their respective parties.
Yet, the debate continues with Arizona’s new illegal immigration law merely accenting the issue.

Last Chance to STOP Obamacare!
Last Chance to STOP Obamacare!
. . . Speaker Pelosi needs 216 votes on Sunday; 215 will mean defeat and will mean that congress will have to face more town halls where the people can express their opinions to their representatives.
Every vote counts. This may be your last chance to stop Obamacare by calling the House of Representatives at (877) 762-8762 (toll-free) or at (202) 224-3121 or (202) 225-3121.
Start with recently-undecideds, make yourself heard, and don’t take a busy signal for an answer. Their phone numbers may be found here: http://barackhatesthis.com/

Of Saints and Sinners
Of Saints and Sinners
I don’t know how often Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi prays but her prayer to St. Joseph to get him to intervene on the side of Obamacare seems very misdirected. In the Catholic tradition, St. Joseph is the patron saint of workers, not of lost causes. Desperate and lost causes are the province of St. Jude Thaddeus.
Perhaps Speaker Pelosi was thinking of Rep. Joseph (Joe) Wilson (R, SC) when she prayed for an intercession by St. Joseph since on the same day she was praying President Obama was proving Joe Wilson right.
The reader may remember Joe from last September when he committed a gross breach of congressional decorum and etiquette by loudly contradicting the president during a speech on Obamacare to a Joint Session of Congress.
Obama had just finished saying, “There are also those who claim that our reform effort will insure illegal immigrants. This, too, is false. The reforms I’m proposing would not apply to those who are here illegally,” when Wilson yelled from his seat, “You lie!”
Anyone who would care to reminisce on that sweet moment in history can . . .

Of Sausages and Obama the Octo-liar
Of Sausages and Obama the Octo-liar
Otto von Bismarck:”Laws are like sausages, it is better not to see them being made.”
Sometimes we forget.
Sometimes we have to connect those underwear dots that went unconnected on Christmas Day. Sometimes we need a wake-up call, a kick in the pants to remind us to make those connections.
I have to confess something. In 1976, I was no big fan of Gerald Ford but I voted for him rather than the peanut farmer from Plains who, if nothing else, seemed fairly bright and ultra-sincere and honest; he did have the temerity to admit in that Playboy article that he “lusted” in his heart.
So, after Carter beat Ford I said, Okay, change can be good and this guy deserved a chance.
I was soon disabused of the notion that Jimmah was as competent and as innocuous as he seemed.
With Barack Hussein Obama, I needed no such disabusing,
Mid-2008, I said to myself, Self, there’s no way on Allah’s green, polluted Earth that a plurality of the electorate could possibly fall for this charlatan. I forgot to factor in the 98% of Blacks who would vote for him, the huge number of self-hating Whites suffering from terminal cases of White Guilt, and ACORN.
I had no naive hopes for Obama that I had for the now-senile Carter but I did actually buy into his pledges and the promises of the Democrat Party as a whole that the 2008 election would bring a new age to American politics even if I felt that change would be repugnant.
One of the principal ”changes we can believe in” would be the oft-heard buzz term, “transparency in government . . .

Pelosi's Stink Bomb
. . . As gross as it it is, the thought that comes to mind with this latest Democrat insult to the soul of America is this old rhyme:
“In days of old, when knights were bold, and toilets weren’t invented, they dropped their loads in the middle of the road and went away contented.”
Speaker Pelosi last night dropped the most massive load of her life. . .

Pregnant Decisions and Personal Reflections
. . . Let’s say you’re a woman who abandoned discretion, or a young girl who got carried away one steamy night with that month’s true love, or a college kid who conferred more benefits on her friend than either of you anticipated and as a result you got pregnant.
Where do you go? What do you do?
Ghostbusters are not an option since you haven’t conceived some phantom but a precious human child.
And, let’s say you have an innate antipathy toward the thought of murdering a sentient being who, by no choice of his or her own, happens to be comfortably nestled within your body.
What do you do?
Well, there’s always the latest craze, the “morning after” pill. Also termed “Plan B” or “Emergency Contraception,” it’s relatively inexpensive but must be prescribed by a doctor if you’re under 17.
However, Plan B is actually a two-step abortafacient, that is, an abortion remedy which will kill the tiny product of your indiscretion, your baby, and may cause severe short- and long-term emotional and physical repercussions.
Then there’s the more traditional method of killing your baby, . . .

Nancy Pelosi, Queen of OHI
Nancy Pelosi, Queen of OHI
When Lincoln concluded the Gettysburg Address with the stirring words, “this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom–and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth,” he could never have envisioned Nancy Pelosi.
We still have a nation even if God has been banished from the public forum and we still have some freedoms left despite efforts by Congress and the president to deny them.
However, Abe’s dream that our government would always be of, by, and for the people took another shot to the solar plexus in Washington today.
Nancy Pelosi’s health care bill, is a monstrosity in every sense of the word. . . .

Dem Damned Lies, Deceptions, and Dolts
Dem Damned Lies, Deceptions, and Dolts
This mess of Democrats in control of our government has come near to perfecting the fine art of political obfuscation and nervy prevarication.
Whether it’s the president who now says that, “Gee, when I said that my Obamacare proposals never incorporated funding for aborting the pre-born, I didn’t really mean that Obamacare wouldn’t incorporate such funding,” or other deceptions, it’s transparent that this ilk has gone to the top of the Prevarication Charts.
Seriously, now, they are absolutely superb at twisting the truth, that is unless, ala Bill Clinton, everyone else is lying but they are telling the god’s-honest truth.
For example, “Rep. Bart Stupak (D.-Mich.) told CNSNews.com that President Barack Obama told him in a telephone conversation that when he said in his Sept. 9 speech to a joint session of Congress that ‘under our plan no federal dollars will be used to fund abortions’ he was not talking about the actual bill drafted in the House but about the president’s own health care plan—which has never been written.”
Huh?
“I don’t know if it is a game of semantics or what,” Stupak said of Obama’s nationally-televised declaration to Congress that the health-care plan will not allow federal funding of abortion:” http://bit.ly/11fnaq.
Rep. Stupak, it’s not semantics. It’s baldfaced lying, a political technique developed into an art form by Barack Obama and his acolytes and predicated on the assumption that the American people are dolts.
All Stupak wants is a floor vote on an amendment prohibiting abortion funding in Obamacare, a transparent, democratic procedure to determine specifically where House members stand. Speaker-wannabe Steny Hoyer has now tried to placate Stupak with more mealy-mouthed, vague promises of compromise: http://bit.ly/4dy7iw
Then along comes the Queen of Deceptive Prevarication, House Speaker Nancy Patricia D’Alesssandro Pelosi, who feigned ignorance–or was it feigned?– . . .

The Obamacare Shuffle
The Obamacare Shuffle
As smarmy David Letterboy continues his nightly snide attacks on Sarah Palin and Dick Cheney and in his inimitable lackey fashion defends all things Obama, his hero president is in the process of performing a political imitation of a Step ‘n Fetchit dance routine.
Obama, with the scent of ignominious defeat in his nostrils and the unmistakable sound of a splattering legacy in those ears of his, has apparently decided that since his first set of lies didn’t work, in desperation he’s chosen a new set of Obamacare falsehoods.
With his administration in disarray over the intentional vagaries of “health care reform,” Obama has now, allegedly, taken the capstone of Obamacare, the “public option,” off the table and tossed it into the sewer where it belongs.
Since he would no sooner really abandon that socialistic requisite, which he has long and fervently esposed, than he would admit his affinity for Islam, one suspects that it will be surreptitiously slipped under the table.
Obama, despite his protestations of transparency in government, has often shown that he just loves surreptition.
The chosen tactic? A nationally-televised press conference? Nah, the electorate is already onto the planted questions and questioners and his trusty teleprompter, without which he devolves into a babbling, meandering Joe Biden.
Well, how’s about an address to a joint session of Congress? Hey! That might work what with the gravitas that such an event confers, compounded by national TV coverage! And, said trusty teleprompter would still be on hand to protect against nationally televised flubs.
How to pull it off, though, without making it seem like, well, like just another sleazey tactic?
The following is an exclusive, confidential, verbatim account of recent contacts between the Oval Office and the congressional offices of Speaker Pelosi and Senate Leader Reid. We were able to tap into their phone lines, with the help of 16 year old who has also hacked into their computers.
Under no circumstances will I divulge my source, so don’t even try, FBI!
The following is the transcript. “O” is the president, “P” the Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, “R” the Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid.
O: Hey, Nance!
P: Who is this?
O: It’s Barry, the president, dammit!
P: Oh, sorry. I just had a Botox shot and my brain is a bit numb.
O: No problemo, Nance. We’re used to that over here. (sounds of shuffling and whispering) I mean, I understand Mrs. Speaker.
P: Oh.
O: Ok, look, I want to use a new approach to get the people to accept my health care proposals.
P: Yes?
O: Well, . . . I want you and Harry to pretend you want me to address a joint session.
P: A joint session?
O: I mean a joint session of congress!
P: Yeah, sure, we can do that. Could you also address the benefits of Botox? I mean, my hubby thinks I look 40 and last night he even . . .
O: Umm, Nance, no . . .
P: Well, fine! But he actually . . .
O: Switch me over to Harry, please.
