John McCain is scared. For the first time in his life , he is not in control. This is evidenced by the racist attacks by Sarah Palin  and subsequently had to try to calm a firestorm. Allowing Sarah Palin free reign was what he wanted but he can’t control the populace. As he slides further into the abyss of his own making, it should be interesting to see how he manages to win this election. McCain wants Rep. John Lewis to retract his statements.

Likening him to Wallace is accurate, if uncomfortable. Maybe he should call for Palin to stop her incendiary remarks about  Barack Obama. The outright lies and racist innuendo concerning Arabs inflames his base. It is a window into his psyche.  The Name Hussein seems to bother both he and Palin.

The debate moderated by Tom Brokaw was filled less with debate on the issues and more with characterization and finger pointing. 

Both candidates agree that the “bailout” was a rescue package for a nation that should never have been in this position in the first place and needs to reduce spending.  Both said they would exercise the Treasury Secretary’s powers to deal with the financial crisis.  Both claim to want to change the culture in Washington.  Eliminating dependency on foreign oil was also a point of agreement as was investing in alternative energy including nuclear.   The need for affordable & available healthcare was agreed.  On the international front, both candidates believe moral support for foreign nations that were former Soviet sattellites is necessary, Iran cannot be allowed to gain nuclear weapons and tightening sanctions on Iran should be used.

From there, the differences begin…

Obama listed his priorities as energy 1st, healthcare 2nd and education 3rd. 

On energy, he stated that Americans will have to start being personally responsible for energy expenditures, reducing their own personal consumption in their homes, buildings and businesses.  He mentioned the use of fuel efficient cars and providing home and business rebates, but he emphasized personal responsibility.  He stated that he does not believe wealth trickles from the top down.  He plans to invest $15 billion a year for 10 years in an effort that he feels would make America independent of foreign energy.

On healthcare, Obama stated the he proposes a 50% tax credit for insurance benefits for small businesses.  He believes healthcare costs will be lowered by investing in preventative care and computerized records.  He wants to include all Americans without health insurance or with plans they do not want to keep in a national insurance pool.  He said he would work with small businesses to reduce employee premiums and require all parents to have healthcare for their children.  He proposes government healthcare mandates.

On education Obama only stated specifically that he would invest in colleges.

On the economy, finances and the budget, Obama said he will:

• Coordinate our financial system with other countries
• Spend money on healthcare, energy and invest in colleges
• Eliminate government programs, reform others and reduce other programs
• Raise taxes while providing those whose income is $250K or less a revenue tax cut
• Address healthcare 1st and then deal with social security.  He made no mention of his stance on retirement programs, but said (apparently in reference to healthcare) there would be no help for higher bracket taxpayers.

On national security and international relations, Obama said he would:

• Double the size of the Peace Corps & expand it as a domestic military service
• Export technology to other countries
• Change our foreign policies to reduce military expenditures
• Expand non-military aide to foreign countries
• Provide financial and economic assistance to former Russian satellite states
• Reduce energy consumption in America to weaken Russian petro dollars
• Use direct negotiations with friendly/unfriendly countries
• Establish proactive foreign policies that are more strategic and aggressive
• Remove troops from Iraq and realign some of them to Afghanistan
• Ensure a responsive Afghan government
• If we have the ability to prevent moral depravity, consider action, act if necessary, but consider action through mobilizing the international community and providing logistical support etc.
• Go after Bin Laden regardless of the cooperation or support of foreign powers

History is a fascinating thing. “The term robber baron (German: Raubritter) dates back to the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, originally referring to certain feudal lords of land through which the Rhine River in Europemerchant ships and demanding tolls without being authorized by the Holy Roman Emperor to do so. Often iron chains were stretched across the river to prevent passage without paying the toll, and strategic towers were built to facilitate this. flowed. They abused their positions by stopping passing merchant ships and demanding tolls without being authorized by the Holy Roman Emperor to do so. Often iron chains were stretched across the river to prevent passage without paying the toll, and strategic towers were built to facilitate this.

Writers of the period referred to these practices as “unjust tolls,” and not only did the robber barons thereby violate the prerogatives of the Holy Roman Emperor, they also went outside of the society’s behavioral norms, since merchants were bound both by law and religious custom to charge a “just price” for their wares.”

Sound Familiar?

Listening to the radio, I was a little confused by all the hoopla that was being made about Barack Obama’s white grandmother. I knew his mother was white, so that would lead me to assume that her mother was white. Yeah? So? I wonder how many blacks in this country do NOT have a white ancestor. What’s the big deal?

Evidently, the big deal is a strategy to “hide” this fact. Pictured in the the Chicago Sun Times, is Barack with a woman named as “his grandmother, Madelyn Dunham, in Africa in 2004. Courtesy of the Obama family“

It seems that a column, Free Obama’s White Grandmother by Andy Martin on 28 March, got people up in arms enough to complain to NewsMax. Since the woman is obviously NOT white, why wouldn’t they direct their complaints to the Sun Times? Or Obama’s campaign?

So, just WHY is Obama Still Hiding White Grandma? I’d say that was flat out racism!

Honestly, I don’t care what color he is. I’m not voting for him. Now, if he was a J.C. Watts, or perhaps Michael Steele, I would have NO problem whatsoever! They are conservative, Barack Obama is NOT.

Politics, Pure and Cynical

We wish we’d been surprised to learn that the White House was deeply involved in the politically motivated firing of eight United States attorneys, but the news had the unmistakable whiff of inevitability. This disaster is just part of the Bush administration’s sordid history of waving the bloody bullhorn of 9/11 for the basest of motives: the perpetuation of power for power’s sake.

The New York Times sounds like a shill for the far left looneys, but this comes as no surprise.

Time and again, President Bush and his team have assured Americans that they needed new powers to prevent another attack by an implacable enemy. Time and again, Americans have discovered that these powers were not being used to make them safer, but in the service of Vice President Dick Cheney’s vision of a presidency so powerful that Congress and the courts are irrelevant, or Karl Rove’s fantasy of a permanent Republican majority.

Put the doobie down, get some sleep and please try to wake up in the real world. Did the Times publish an editorial such as this when the Clinton administration pretty much fired everyone from the previous administration?  They even made up crap to justify their actions, and ruined people’s lives, all in the name of “power for power’s sake”.

In firing the prosecutors and replacing them without Senate approval, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales took advantage of a little-noticed provision that the administration and its Republican enablers in Congress had slipped into the 2006 expansion of the Patriot Act. The ostensible purpose was to allow the swift interim replacement of a United States attorney who was, for instance, killed by terrorism.

If a U.S. attorney is not doing his or her job, shouldn’t they be canned? Seems to me that guy who failed to prosecute what was obviously a violation of the law, should have been fired before now, even if he was doing a great job in every other area. If you are an officer of the court, you don’t get to pick and choose which laws to uphold.

But these firings had nothing to do with national security — or officials’ claims that the attorneys were fired for poor performance. This looks like a political purge, pure and simple, and President Bush and his White House are in the thick of it.

National security doesn’t only cover threats from outside. It also involved threats from within. Hmmm…. perhaps there should be a few indictments in D.C. There sure are some major threats from within going on in that town.

Among the documents is e-mail sent to Ms. Miers by Kyle Sampson, Mr. Gonzales’s chief of staff, ranking United States attorneys on factors like “exhibited loyalty.” Small wonder, then that United States Attorney Carol Lam of San Diego was fired. She had put one Republican congressman, Duke Cunningham, in jail and had opened an inquiry that put others at risk, along with party donors.

What a crock! I didn’t see any Republicans squawking about Cunningham’s prosecution. He deserved what he got!

Read the rest. No doubt you’ll see the same tired old bias that the Times always exhibits.

“Liberals, like children, live in a world of utopian dreaminess, clinging to a narrow, circumscribed reality and believing that if everyone would just be nice to each other – let’s talk, let’s chat – all the noisy death threats and pesky suicide bombings would go away, and all those grumpy grownups in the current administration would see the light. And so they do what children do when they’re mad at grownups. They call names.”

H/T: Babalu’

Jessica has a video posted that is quite disturbing.

This happened in October, but I just saw the video. It’s worth watching even if it’s a little old because of what it says about the sanity of some in our country.

I agree with her on this one. The level of hate and lunacy that is taking over our country is not only disturbing, but down right embarrassing for those who have a shred of common sense.

Lawmaker drops effort to ban spanking

A Democratic lawmaker has abandoned her heavily ridiculed campaign to make spanking a crime, acknowledging that the idea would get whacked even in California’s sometimes whimsical Legislature.

Whimsical? I’d say some of the nonsense the left coasters come up with is down right embarrassing to all thinking people.

Instead, San Francisco Bay area Assemblywoman Sally Lieber introduced a more narrow bill on Thursday she said would help district attorneys more easily prosecute parents who cross the line from punishment into physical abuse.

Now, I’m not one of those who believes in beating children, you shouldn’t have to. But I do NOT believe that more legislation is necessary. Is this make busy work for this woman?

Lieber is seeking to classify a laundry list of physical acts against young children, including hitting with a belt, switch or stick, as unjustifiable and grounds for prosecution, probation or a parental time-out — a class on nonviolent parenting.

“Spare the rod, spoil the child” sound familiar? Perhaps if the gubmint hadn’t started invading our homes, I doubt we would be having the serious problems on our streets now. Having to go out and cut your own switch off a tree is one of those “staples” of raising kids. The switch might never get used, but the psychological impact was enormous.

Spanking a child on the buttocks — even to the point of injury — will remain legal in California, Lieber said.

Does a little bruising come under the “point of injury”? Because if that’s all they are talking about, big deal! Kids get more bruises, cuts and scrapes out playing than the majority ever get from a good wallop on the behind.  I forgot, kids aren’t allowed to play any more, thanks to government invasion.

Lieber, who has no children, attracted nationwide attention after she pledged to introduce an anti-spanking bill to protect children from violence. Her idea was even the subject of a “Saturday Night Live” parody.

No kids? Then she needs to sit down, and shut up! Having never had to deal with the whining, screaming, bad attitude, brats, then she has NO clue what it’s like to be a parent.

Very few parents actually abuse their kids. Yes, there are some who are clueless on how to discipline a child. However, giving a kid a much deserved spanking, whether with a hand, which is quite painful for the one giving, or some reasonable implement, does NOT mean you are abusing the child.

Feingold looks favorably on supporters of timed Iraq exit

Senate Democrat Russ Feingold sent a recent note of thanks to presidential hopeful Tom Vilsack for supporting Feingold’s bill to withdraw U.S. troops from Iraq after six months.

Feingold has not endorsed anyone in the Democratic race, but some contestants are closer than others to his views on Iraq (he wants to back up a deadline for withdrawal with a future cutoff of war funds).

I’m tellin’ ya! Ol’ Russ is looking for a VP slot!

“My goal here is to be supportive of those who adopt a strong stand about getting out of Iraq in a sensible way,” Feingold said in an interview. Feingold noted that among other candidates, U.S. Rep. Dennis Kucinich of Ohio has a withdrawal plan and Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois “came around after a while now and has managed to put in his proposal a specific time frame.”

Translation: “I will stand with the other chicken shits in Congress cuz I’m not really a ‘maverick’. I’m just a yellow bellied sap sucker like the rest of ‘em!”

“On the one hand, if somebody says they’ve made a mistake, as Edwards has done, I think she realizes that doesn’t sound like the greatest qualification for being president,” said Feingold, referring to being “wrong” on such a major issue.

Perhaps she wasn’t wrong, given that she had the same intel as the President? Just a thought.  Why admit something if you don’t believe it?

Tell me again why this guy was re-elected?

This morning, while perusing the Fond du Lac Distorter, I came across a letter to the editor. It’s the usual left side screed, turning the war in Iraq into “class warfare”. When I got to the last two paragraphs:

If he doesn’t or cannot accept this fact, as well as all the civil liberties granted every American citizen under the U.S. Constitution, then it’s time we impeach both him and Cheney.

And perhaps that is the only way we’ll get out from under his blundering foreign policies — by letting the House speaker finish the remainder of his term in office.

Ah yes, let literally crown Nancy as queen! She’s a Dem after, she can do no wrong! While I don’t agree with everything the President has done, I see nothing he’s done that is impeachable (unlike the left’s hero, Clinton).

Oh, and by the way Mr. Scheinola, that king you are referring to was never IN this country.

Liberals Don’t Ask “What Happens Next?”

In general, the Left does not ask the question, “What will happen next?” when formulating social policy. Not thinking through the long-range consequences of their positions is liberalism’s tragic flaw.

This has been the most obvious flaw of the left for a long time. All actions have consequences, good, and bad. I’ve learned through my lifetime that the “feel good” left have done nothing to improve the lives of anyone.

Will higher taxes help the economy?

Plain ol’ common sense should answer that question, but I’m afraid common sense is NOT one of the characteristics of the left. You get to keep more of the money you work your hinder off to earn, you get to spend more, which creates
the need for more goods and services, which creates more jobs. DUH!

Is continued illegal immigration good for America or for Mexico?

Note the keyword here….ILLEGAL! Legal immigration is a good thing, to a degree (there’s only so much to go around). We are paying for the health care, the education, and the incarceration of people who are not contributing tax money to pay for such services.

Is bilingual education good for immigrant children?

The simple answer is NO!

Does affirmative action help black students?

Telling a person they aren’t good enough to succeed without the gubmint’s help is a slap in the face. The time is passing for affirmative action.

What would the Kyoto Protocols do to the American and world economies?

Let’s face it, we have a pollution problem, but no where near as bad as those who are exempt from the Protocols. Sadly, the intertwining of the world economy would be severely damaged if the left gets their way. Besides, man made global warming is a crock!

Would withdrawal from Iraq increase or decrease human suffering?

Just ask the Vietnamese and Cambodians what happened when the left got their way. We would have won that war if the left hadn’t been so bloomin’ selfish. Yes, people died…including friends of mine… but odds are, fewer would have lost their lives if the war had been run from the ground, instead of in the press and DC.

Does nationalized health insurance work?

The British and Canadians I’ve spoken to are envious of OUR health care system. What does that tell ya!

In the view of many liberals, “What happens next?” is a pragmatic, but not idealistic, question by which to guide social policy. In fact, however, no question is as idealistic as “What happens next?” Asking it means that social policy is made by noble and compassionate minds, not hearts alone. In the rest of life, thinking through the consequences of actions is called “responsible” and “mature.” Those remain worthy goals in public life as well.

Time is short! What happens next is up to us. Do we allow the left to turn our country into a “workers paradise”, or do we encourage our own to work hard, make a good life for themselves, and stop depending on the government for every aspect of life.

Jackson Welcomes Slavery Apology, But Sees ‘Obligation to Repair Damage’

The Rev. Jesse Jackson Thursday welcomed a decision by Virginia legislators to express “profound regret” for slavery, saying an apology was “owed” to the descendents of slaves.

But Jackson told the Associated Press that despite a motion before the state Legislature to apologize, he thought lawmakers did not want to acknowledge the “true reach” of slavery.

“There may be a reluctance to apologize for the heinous crime of slavery,” Jackson said, “because with apology goes the obligation to repair the damage.”

Slavery was one of the more ugly parts of our history, but if I remember my history correctly, Abraham Lincoln (a Republican president by the way) issued the Emancipation Proclamation on 1 January 1863.  It took 101 years to get the Civil Rights Act signed into law (filibustered by Democrats but signed by a Dem president).Not one single person alive today was a slave in this country. Nor, is one single person alive today ever a slave owner.  I do not owe anyone an apology for the actions of others, nor do I owe one single dime in reparations to people who have never been a slave.

People like Jackson insist on making “slaves” of people to his whims, and where he’s concerned, only dollar signs can make anything right.  Wouldn’t it be better for the black community if those in “leadership” positions push education and personal responsibility instead of how to suck money from the public?

Hey b*tch….IT’S NOT YOUR MONEY!

My apologies, but socialists really annoy me, and that…..woman….is a socialist!

Are CBS reporters actually shills for Al Qaeda?  Perhaps the video at Hot Air can gives us a hint.

If we were going to stick around, I might consider running against Carol Roessler. Lucky for Wisconsin, we’ll be gone in a couple of months.

Roessler ‘firmly’ backs smoking ban

At least one area legislator already knows where she stands on Gov. Jim Doyle’s proposed smoking ban.

State Sen. Carol Roessler, a Republican, said she “firmly, strongly” supports the ban. Evidence, she said, proves smoking negatively impacts health enough to justify a ban.

Roessler, of Oshkosh, said she also endorses the governor’s proposed tax increase, which would raise the cigarette tax by $1.25. Higher prices, she said, would give people another incentive to quit.

Perhaps it’s time for Carol to admit she’s a Democrat, and lose that “R”.

The increase would benefit children, too, she said. The changes would discourage young people from starting and encourage child smokers to quit.

Ah yes, if it’s for the benefit of the chiiiiiildren, it’s ok to dicate what grownups do in a bar or restaurant. Since when do kids pay taxes, or go to bars, or pay for an expensive meal at a restaurant?

Roessler said the proposed ban and tax increase would not only discourage smoking. The proposals would benefit everyone’s pocketbook in the form of reduced health-care expenses, she said.

No, what it’ll do is put tax money in another state’s coffers, or benefit the tribes since they don’t pay federal tax and smokes are a bit cheaper.

“This is going to say to smokers, ‘You’re going to have to pay for the consequences of smoking,’” she said.

As a matter of fact, we already do. They call it discrimination if color or sexual orientation is involved. Question: When are the drinkers and the drunk drivers going to start paying out the wazoo? We’ve read about too many people with their 10th or more drunk driving offense, yet they aren’t paying. Raise the tax on alcohol….maybe that would stop people from drinking? Naw…that won’t work either!

State Rep. John Townsend, R-Fond du Lac, hasn’t yet revealed his opinion of Doyle’s anti-smoking proposals. He thinks the issue needs research and discussion before anyone can make a decision, he said. The government and the public should have the chance to weigh the pros and cons.

John is actually a reasonable guy. He thinks things through fairly carefully before making a decision. I prefer a person like that over the “knee jerk” type any day.

Smokers already pay higher insurance premiums, more in taxes and are treated like pariahs. The government just promotes it.

Dennis York puts it sooooooo much better!

Feingold Pushes Plan to Cut Off War Funds

Feingold, a fierce war critic, will force Democrats to consider an option many consider politically suicidal: denying funds to the military and U.S. soldiers to force a quicker end to the war. Democratic leaders have privately called on members to restrain from cutting off funding and focus on congressional resolutions condemning the Bush policy. The resolutions are nonbinding and therefore symbolic.

I guess he hates Americans, and America, so much, he doesn’t mind the fact that he’s sending a signal to the bad guys he wants them to destroy us. I am so thoroughly disgusted with the whole bunch.

I’ve never hated anyone in my life, and I don’t want to start now.  However, I’m coming really close to hating those who want to do harm to my grandchildren, and Feingold is one of them.

New-Age Playgrounds Rule, as Long as the Kids Are in Charge

Gone are slides, seesaws and swings. City planners are now designing new-age public parks with trained “play workers” who guide children through a maze of water, ramps and sand to encourage creativity.

This idea might be all well and good for kids with serious emotional problems, but leave the kids alone! Isn’t bad enough grownups have destroyed childhood with all the “feel good” crap that’s been pushed through?

“Kids are naturally creative and imaginative and play with whatever is available to them,” she said. “Water and sand are two of the most important things that seem to pull out of kids a lot of imagination. They are naturally therapeutic for younger kids, who are immediately stimulated and attracted to learn about their environment.”

Cardboard boxes worked great when kids use to be kids.  A puddle with frogs taught us about the environment.

Based on enlightened theories about learning, these new playgrounds are a dramatic departure from the 19th century ones created for children in New York City’s settlement houses. They are already the rage in Japan and Europe.

Enlightened? There’s not a darn thing enlightened about structuring every waking moment of a kid’s life, and turning it into a miniature adult’s schedule.

“There is a greater sense of imaginative, creative and cooperative play,” said Christine James, who works as an education officer for the British Film Institute. “They look like they’ve been designed by artists like Picasso or architects like Gaudi.”

Hornswaggle! Personal opinion: Picasso’s works looks like something my granddaughter did in Kindergarten. (Eye of the beholder and all that!)

“As a parent, if you’re honest,” she added, “you wish they’d had them in your day and secretly wish grown-ups were allowed on them after dark!”

Ummm….nope! Got that one wrong! I had a pretty good childhood, I was actually allowed to…gasp…PLAY! and use my imagination (cowboys and Indians, cops and robbers, etc). “Secretly”, I’d much rather be on a beach somewhere with NO kids are allowed! 

“Play is not optional for kids,” Rockwell told The New York Times. “Play is how children learn to build community, how they learn to work with other people. It’s how they learn to engage their sense of creativity.”

Is this their subtle way of saying “it’s how we create good little socialists”?

For years, psychologists have been fighting an uphill battle with micromanaging parents, and play therapist Pratola wonders if trained play workers might interfere with creativity.

I can’t imagine having my mom, or anyone else, looking over my shoulder when I was a kid, it stifles.

“The key is not to make up too many rules,” she said.

Too late!  The key is to get rid of some of those rules they’ve already come up with, and imposed on our kids.

This clown doesn’t find Mallard Fillmore amusing. Not to mention:

Why is this comic strip in my newspaper? I know we feel like we’re helping Republicans, when we pretend they’re as smart as regular people, but it’s patronizing, and it only hurts them in the long run.

I suppose he thinks Doonesbury is enlightening. sigh….

Responding to the Call for Change

My bill proposes a real change in policy in Iraq. It calls on the President to redeploy U.S. forces from Iraq within six months while allowing for a minimal number of forces to remain in Iraq for targeted counter-terrorism activities, training of Iraqi security forces, and for the protection of U.S. infrastructure and personnel. This Administration must recognize what the American people already know: It’s past time to get our troops out of Iraq. We must redeploy our troops from Iraq so that we can focus on the global threats to our national security – like the ones in Somalia, Afghanistan and elsewhere – that have only grown while this Administration has gotten us bogged down in Iraq.

Senator Cut and Run just can’t help himself I guess. He must really think highly of himself reading all the suck up comments.

I don’t suppose it has occurred to the Democrats, and Feingold specifically, that the reason the have a slim majority is because the American people got sick of the excessive spending of the Republicans?  Naw…that would make too much sense.

Even though I’m not pleased with the way things have been going in Iraq, I put a chunk of the blame on the MSM and the moonbats, along with those in DC who think it’s prudent to run a war from several thousand miles away.

It’s long past time to stop the politically correct way of waging a war, and get to serious business.  Kick ass, don’t worry about names, and get the bloomin’ job done!

One of the drawbacks of staying at Holiday Inns, or pluses, depending on your point of view, is the McPaper (aka USA Today). I open the door to pick up it, and there’s a glaring headline on the front page:

Lame duck Bush entering rougher waters

I’ve been trying to think back during Pres. Clinton’s final two years….were there headlines like this connecting his name? Did they call him “Lame duck Clinton”? I don’t recall seeing any, but I might be wrong.

The complete and utter disrespect of the majority of the print media really irritates me. I was no fan of Bill and Hillary, still don’t much care for either of them, but I have a great deal of respect for the office, even if they didn’t.  I glanced through the article, but am not going to comment on it since I don’t give a happy crap what the McPaper has to say most of the time.

My day is not off to a good start!

Official Reaction To Behar’s Comments on Rumsfeld Is Tepid; Others See Her As ‘Jerk’

Behar, in a giggly chat on Monday with the show’s three other co-hosts — including Rosie O’Donnell — about Time magazine’s “Person of the Year,” called the publication’s choice “lame.” Then, she followed with this off-the-cuff observation:

“You have to put like a Hitler type. Like, you put Donald Rumsfeld there or something.”

I often wonder why The View is even on the air. I caught it a couple of times, when Sean Hannity was on, and someone else, can’t remember. I’ve watched a few minutes from time to time when they were just “chatting”. How boring can you get? Three females, totally clueless, and Barbara Walters. It was kind of like watching that movie Valley Girl.

Words have meanings. There are many words being bandied about these days, mostly on the left, for anything they don’t like. If you’re George W. Bush, you’re a Hitler. If you’re Donald Rumsfeld, you’re a Hitler. If you’re a Republican, you’re a Nazi. It’s like they are trying to minimize the real evil (Hitler and Nazis) to make anything they dislike, or disagree with, seem more evil.

Personally, I like Rumsfeld. I think he did a pretty good job trying to deal with a different kind of war. I’ve no doubt he’s tired. If we lose this war, it’ll be because of the left. This war isn’t being fought on the battle ground, it’s being fought in the media. The little jabs are being heard around the world and I honestly wish they would STFU! I’m a Christian, and I’m not bowing to Mecca!
