Obama Hits New Low Over At Rasmussen

Barack Hussein Obama has hit a new low over at Rasmussen today, -15 on the “Presidential Daily Tracking Poll.

Rasmussen takes the percentage of probable voters who strongly approve of the commander in chief’s job performance then subtracts the percentage of those who strongly disapprove resulting in a figure which provides us with a fairly accurate representation of how America feels about the direction our country is headed under the leadership of this man.

Frankly, the mood is getting worse by the moment and this is the tenth day in a row he has been in double negative numbers proving his recent trip to Asia was a complete bust, certainly not helped by his subservient bows to the Japanese Emperor and the Chinese Prime Minister and his pushing of his signature healthcare takeover legislation is not going over well with a lot of people who actually pay attention to what the hell is going on in this country.

The Wilding of Sarah Palin

When I was in college, I read a book that changed my life. It was Susan Brownmiller’s tome, Against Our Will: Men, Women, and Rape, which explained rape as an act of power, not just lust. What I found particularly chilling was the chapter on war — how rape is used to terrorize a population and destroy the enemy’s spirit. While edifying, the book magnified the vulnerability I already felt as a female. Fear of rape became a constant dread, and I sought a solution that would help shield me from danger. The answer: seek safe harbor within the Democratic Party. I even became an activist for feminist causes, including violence against women. Liberalism would protect me from the big bad conservatives who wished me harm. [A reformed Berkeley uber liberal woman writes a brilliant piece. A must read AmericanThinker.com article of the day.

“Climate Gate” Development: CEI Files Notice of Intent to Sue NASA

Today, on behalf of the Competitive Enterprise Institute, I filed three Notices of Intent to File Suit against NASA and its Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS), for those bodies’ refusal – for nearly three years – to provide documents requested under the Freedom of Information Act. The information sought is directly relevant to the exploding “ClimateGate” scandal revealing document destruction, coordinated efforts in the U.S. and UK to avoid complying with both countries’ freedom of information laws, and apparent and widespread intent to defraud at the highest levels of international climate science bodies. [This is just the beginning of the end for the “climate change” fraudsters. While it is always appropriate to honestly research ways to reduce as many negative impacts man MAY have on our environment, researched based strictly on science not politics, the Al Gores of the world have turned this valiant concept into an absolutely corrupt scam…ed]

20 Advances to Be Thankful For

News about health often focuses on the negative: scary new flu viruses, incurable diseases, dashed hopes for miracle drugs. Maybe that’s because we have such high expectations that doctors and scientists can fix anything. But amid all that bad news—not to mention the acrimony over health-care reform—it’s easy to overlook how much progress has been made in recent years. Here are 20 health-care advances to give thanks for this Thanksgiving: [The free market system in the United States has given the WORLD tremendous medical advances that would be impossible under socialized government run government rationed healthcare. Perhaps this is why so many Americans are against what the liberals are trying to ram down our throats with ObamaCare…ed]

Lieberman Digs In on Public Option

Sen. Joseph Lieberman, speaking in that trademark sonorous baritone, utters a simple statement that translates into real trouble for Democratic leaders: “I’m going to be stubborn on this.” Stubborn, he means, in opposing any health-care overhaul that includes a “public option,” or government-run health-insurance plan, as the current bill does. His opposition is strong enough that Mr. Lieberman says he won’t vote to let a bill come to a final vote if a public option is included. Probe for a catch or caveat in that opposition, and none is visible. Can he support a public option if states could opt out of the plan, as the current bill provides? “The answer is no,” he says in an interview from his Senate office. “I feel very strongly about this.” [I can’t help but wonder what the motivation is behind Lieberman’s alleged resistance to his fellow Democrat’s plan to eventually take over the healthcare system in this country. While I would like to believe his is a principled stand, I know better. He’s angling for something here but it certainly isn’t the defeat of ObamaCare…ed]

GlaxoSmithKline Recalls H1N1 Vaccine in Canada Over ‘Life-Threatening’ Allergy Risk

The pharmaceutical company GlaxoSmithKline says it has advised medical staff in Canada to not use one batch of swine flu vaccine for fear it may trigger life-threatening allergies. GlaxoSmithKline spokeswoman Gwenan White said Tuesday the company issued the advice after reports that one batch of the swine flu vaccine might have caused more allergic reactions than normal. [Odd.

Rep. King accuses Conyers and Nadler of blocking ACORN probe

Rep. Steve King (R-Iowa) accused two Democratic committee chairmen of blocking an investigation into ACORN because of their ties to the organization. In an interview with Fox News, King took aim at House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers Jr. (D-Mich.) and Judiciary Constitution subcommittee Chairman Jerrold Nadler (D-N.Y.), whom he says have questionable connections to the organization. The conservative lawmaker, who sits on the Judiciary panel, said the liberal Conyers made him write a letter regarding the investigation after Conyers had already received a prior version. King also said Conyers told him he does not know where ACORN’s Detroit offices are, even though he spoke at the organization’s national convention in June. “It’s been a delay practice on his part,” King said. “It’s beyond an opinion at this point.” [Democrats running interference for their corrupt cohorts at ACORN…ed]

Obama’s Nice Guy Act Gets Him Nowhere on the World Stage

When he entered office, US President Barack Obama promised to inject US foreign policy with a new tone of respect and diplomacy. His recent trip to Asia, however, showed that it’s not working. A shift to Bush-style bluntness may be coming. There were only a few hours left before Air Force One was scheduled to depart for the flight home. US President Barack Obama trip through Asia had already seen him travel 24,000 kilometers, sit through a dozen state banquets, climb the Great Wall of China and shake hands with Korean children. It was high time to take stock of the trip. Barack Obama looked tired on Thursday, as he stood in the Blue House in Seoul, the official residence of the South Korean president. He also seemed irritable and even slightly forlorn. The CNN cameras had already been set up. But then Obama decided not to play along, and not to answer the question he had already been asked several times on his trip: what did he plan to take home with him? Instead, he simply said “thank you, guys,” and disappeared. [Bullies, thugs and pansy ass European leftists love Obama because he holds the same kind of contempt for America as they do. Seems George W. Bush’s style of dealing with the world may just have been right all along…ed]

That was The Week That Was for President Obama

President Obama has been having a hard time catching a break. Last week was not a good week for President Obama. He returned Saturday (11-21-09) empty handed from his much ballyhooed trip to Asia. He came back with nothing really to show for his efforts except White House spin. No accords signed, no deals made, no breakthroughs on anything. (SNIP) He learned from world leaders while he was traveling that the Copenhagen global warming treaty is dead. The best he can hope is to spin it as “delayed” but there is no sign that China, India and Brazil will budge in their refusal to jump on the bandwagon. This has to be understood in light of an equally unproductive tour to Europe a few weeks ago when he failed to get anyone on board his World Economic Plan or even to get NATO to help out more in Afghanistan. His lecturing to the Africans did nothing to help Darfur or anywhere else in Africa. He must be wondering if the Nobel Prize can be taken back. [The entire world is laughing their asses off at the weak kneed impotent leader of the free world and his ten month long amateur hour routine. Acting ‘cool’ worked ok for the teleprompter jockey up until the real work started…ed]

Sen. Charles Schumer says Democrats will pass health care reform with or without Republicans

A leading Senate Democrat said Monday his party is determined to push through a health care overhaul bill, President Barack Obama’s top domestic issue, with or without support from opposition Republicans. Republicans have made clear they aren’t supporting the bill, which foretells of a rowdy Senate floor debate next month on legislation that would extend health care coverage to roughly 31 million Americans, crack down on insurance company practices that deny or dilute benefits and curtail the growth of spending on medical care nationally. [And American voters, who have repeatedly and loudly said they do not want this garbage, will remember this come election day in 2010 Mr. Shumer. Believe me…ed]

Health Care Reform. Support for Health Care Plan Falls to New Low

Just 38% of voters now favor the health care plan proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats. That’s the lowest level of support measured for the plan in nearly two dozen tracking polls conducted since June. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 56% now oppose the plan. Half the survey was conducted before the Senate voted late Saturday to begin debate on its version of the legislation. Support for the plan was slightly lower in the half of the survey conducted after the Senate vote. [The majority of Americans have rejected the idea of the government getting itself involved in our healthcare system for decades but the Democrats thought they finally had their shot at gaining control of our lives when Obama came along. Looks like they were wrong. This thing will be political suicide in 2010 for a grip of Democrats who try and ram it through against the wishes of their constituents…ed]

Splits widen for Democrats over health reform

President Barack Obama’s mission to reform US healthcare vaulted another legislative hurdle over the weekend, but the scramble to secure his own party’s votes sheds light on the messy compromises that may be needed to get it to the finish line. Fissures between liberal and centrist Democrats cracked open on Sunday in the aftermath of a procedural vote, which paved the way for the estimated $848bn (€570bn, £514bn) draft Senate bill to be debated on the floor. Leaders hope there will be a vote on the bill by Christmas. If passed, the House and Senate versions will have to be mashed together. If this weekend is anything to go by, it will not be a pretty process. [But the liberal media will continue to slam the Republicans for this Obamanation even though they have no ability to stop a single piece of legislation created by the Democrats…ed]

The devastating book which debunks climate change

Just imagine if we learned we were about to be landed with the biggest bill in the history of the world – simply on the say-so of a group of scientists. Would we not want to be absolutely sure that those scientists were 100 per cent dependable in what they were saying? Should we not then be extremely worried – and even very angry – if it emerged that those scientists had been conspiring among themselves to fiddle the evidence for what they were telling us? This is the extraordinary position in which we find ourselves thanks to news reported in Saturday’s Daily Mail which has raised huge question marks over the reliability of the science behind the theory of global warming. Hundreds of emails leaked from the internal computer system of the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia show how a small group of highly influential senior British and U.S. scientists have for years been secretly discussing ways in which their evidence could be manipulated to make the threat posed by global warming sound much worse than it is.

Obama Meets Chinese President, Saturday Night Live Style

obama chinese pres - Copy

I’ve never been much of a fan of Comedy Central or Saturday Night Live, not necessarily because of their unabashed liberal leanings, it’s just that I don’t find stupid people all that stimulating, funny or entertaining. That said every once in a blue moon these shows do manage to squeeze out a little stab at humor that I find may be worthwhile and I’m willing to make the effort to piss away a few precious moments of my day just to LMFAO, especially on a Monday.

Ladies and gentlemen observe as our weak ass commander in chief meets up for a presser with Chinese president Hu Jintao to discuss the Obama administration’s obviously failed policies for dealing with America’s economic mess and our nearly one trillion dollar debt owed to the communist country. Please note that the “translator’s” voice in this video is quite appropriately annoying and grating.

Republican Deficit Hypocrisy

The human capacity for self-delusion never ceases to amaze me, so it shouldn’t surprise me that so many Republicans seem to genuinely believe that they are the party of fiscal responsibility. Perhaps at one time they were, but those days are long gone. This fact became blindingly obvious to me six years ago this month when a Republican president and a Republican Congress enacted the Medicare drug benefit, which former U.S. Comptroller General David Walker has called “the most fiscally irresponsible piece of legislation since the 1960s.” [This article points out perfectly why conservatives are fed up with the Democrat Lite Party aka the Republicans. The GOP lost the majority in Congress in ’06 and the White House in ’08 because true conservatives were pissed off at the free spending of the Bush administration/Republican Congress and they were sick and tired of constantly holding their noses and voting for “moderates” and RINOs…ed]

Fort Bragg lifts all media restrictions for Palin visit

Under threat of a lawsuit by The Fayetteville Observer, The Associated Press, ABC and Capitol Broadcasting Co., Fort Bragg on Friday lifted restrictions on press coverage of an appearance by Sarah Palin. The former Alaska governor is scheduled to sign copies of her book “Going Rogue” on Monday at the North Post Exchange. The lawsuit, which was minutes away from being filed in federal court, asked for a temporary restraining order that would prohibit Fort Bragg from giving media less access to the event than that provided to the public. [There is no doubt the order to prevent the media from reporting on Sarah Palin’s visit to Fort Bragg came down from within the White House. Clearly the Obama administration didn’t want the raucous enthusiastic reception to the former Alaskan governor from thousands of military personnel broadcast all over the airwaves. That certainly wouldn’t look good for the commander in chief…ed]

“Going Rogue” is going big

Publisher HarperCollins said Friday that Sarah Palin’s memoir sold 300,000 copies its first day, among the best openings ever for a nonfiction book. In 2004, Bill Clinton’s “My Life” debuted with sales of 400,000 copies. The year before, Hillary Rodham Clinton’s “Living History” started at 200,000. [Her publisher advance was covered the very first day the book was released to the public and it’s already on its second printing. Damn…ed]

What Happened?

Plainly, Obama’s poll numbers have hit the skids, as poll after poll registers new lows in approval and new highs in disapproval. More independents now disapprove than approve of his performance. And more voters disapprove of his handling of specific issues such as health care. So what happened, and why now? Well, it has been a long slide down for Obama; this didn’t all happen in one week or one month. But it is hard to escape the conclusion that something has crystallized over the last few weeks. Perhaps it was the two gubernatorial elections, confirming quiet dissension and suggesting that, yes, things really aren’t going in the right direction. Maybe the plethora of foreign policy debacles — the Middle East, the abject failure at engaging Iran, the dithering on Afghanistan, bowing before yet another monarch — have caught up and shaken Americans. [Let’s face it the only reasons this man managed to get elected was the color of his skin and his ability to read eloquently from a teleprompter as everyone knew he had ZERO qualifications to hold the most important job on the planet. For some that didn’t matter as all they cared about was being able to tell themselves they voted for a “black” man, the future of the country be damned. For millions of the rest of us we knew exactly what was going to happen with this man as president and we have now been proven to be accurately prophetic…ed]

Obama bungle produces ‘worst US-Japan summit in history’

A magazine in Tokyo is reporting that President Obama’s summit with Japanese Prime Minister Hatoyama was a frosty disaster, precipitated by incompetence on both sides and an entirely avoidable diplomatic slight to the Japanese side by Obama. The visit was abruptly re-scheduled, seriously inconveniencing the Emperor of Japan, as well as the Prime Minister, whose intricate schedules require meticulous planning and coordination. Japanese weekly magazine Shukan Bunshun cites an unnamed insider at the Foreign Ministry, who delivers a devastating account of not merely a failure to agree, but figurative slaps in the face of the rude president, delivered in retaliation. If true, President Obama has demonstrated high-handed arrogance once again, and antagonized a key ally, weakening a relationship of critical security and economic importance to the United States. [The AmericanThinker.com post of the day…ed]

Barack Obama’s Chump Diplomacy

Oh, how the international community loves Barack Obama — loves to stiff him, play him along, and manipulate him. He’s the world’s celebrity ingenue, the slender naïf perpetually undone by the recalcitrance of foreign leaders. Earlier this year, in a touching exercise in diplomatic and civilizational outreach, he sent two letters to Iran’s mullahs and a new year’s message to the Iranian people. How mannerly, how unthreatening. When the Iranian government beat protesters in the streets after it stole the election for Pres. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in June, Obama kept his criticism muted. How sensitive, how subtle. [The foreign policy neophyte Barack Obama will soon learn the bad guys around the world will not change their stripes because he bows down and kisses their asses…ed]

Why No One Expects a Strong Recovery

One of the strongest factors promoting recovery from our 10 post-World War II recessions was an unshakable conviction that, regardless of the immediate trouble, the American economy is fundamentally strong. Based on this underlying confidence, recessions and recoveries roughly conformed to the principle of the bigger the bust, the bigger the boom, and vice versa. Thus real growth in the four quarters following postwar recessions averaged 6.6% and 4.3% over the following five years. As the chief economist for Barclays, Dean Maki, said in this newspaper on Aug. 19, “You can’t find a single deep recession that has been followed by a moderate recovery.” That may no longer hold. Since the current recession has lasted a record seven quarters—and has been marked by a near-record average GDP decline of 1.8% per quarter—we should be witnessing the start of a powerful and sustained recovery. Yet forecasts of a 2% recovery in growth are only one-fourth as strong as postwar experience suggests. Meanwhile, unemployment sits at a generational high of 10.2%. [You are gonna want to read this one…ed]

To Create Jobs, Voters Say Cut Taxes and Stop Spending

As the policy debate has unfolded in Washington this year, voters have consistently believed that tax cuts would do more than increased government spending to stimulate the economy and create jobs. Now that the nation’s unemployment rate has reached 10.2%, voters continue to hold that view. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that 62% believe tax cuts are a better way to create jobs and fight unemployment. Only 21% believe that additional stimulus spending is a more effective tool. [The Obama administration and Congress would be well advised to listen to the people who put them into office. Otherwise what happened in Virginia and New Jersey earlier this month will be replicated across the country come election day in 2010…ed]

Obama says it: There’s a chance he won’t run in 2012

In an interview with CNN in China, President Obama opened the possibility to not running for re-election in 2012 — something that no president has done since Lyndon Johnson. Here’s what he said: “You know, if – if I feel like I’ve made the very best decisions for the American people and three years from now I look at it and, you know, my poll numbers are in the tank and because we’ve gone through these wrenching changes, you know, politically, I’m in a tough spot, I’ll – I’ll feel all right about myself,” Obama told CNN’s Ed Henry. “I said to myself very early on, even when I started running for office, I don’t want to be making decisions based on getting re-elected, because I think the challenges that America faces right now are so significant,” the president also said. [Says the guy who can’t get a day’s work done because he is too busy campaigning for 2012…ed]

Angry Congress lashes out at Obama

Growing discontent over the economy and frustration with efforts to speed its recovery boiled over Thursday on Capitol Hill in a wave of criticism and outright anger directed at the Obama administration. Episodes in both houses of Congress exposed the raw nerves of lawmakers flooded with stories of unemployment and economic hardship back home. They also underscored the stiff headwinds that the administration faces as it pushes to enact sweeping changes to the financial regulatory system while also trying to create jobs for ordinary Americans. President Obama’s allies in the Congressional Black Caucus, exasperated by the administration’s handling of the economy, unexpectedly blocked one his top priorities, using a legislative maneuver to postpone the approval of financial reform legislation by a key House committee. [The overwhelmingly Democrat Congress was just so thrilled they got this left wing loon of a president back in January. It’s wonderful to see the love affair is quickly unraveling only ten months later…ed]

CNN Poll: Blame for recession shifting from GOP to Democrats

Nearly two years into the recession, opinion about which political party is responsible for the severe economic downturn is shifting, according to a new national poll. A CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Friday morning indicates that 38 percent of the public blames Republicans for the country’s current economic problems. That’s down 15 points from May, when 53 percent blamed the GOP. According to the poll 27 percent now blame the Democrats for the recession, up 6 points from May. Twenty-seven percent now say both parties are responsible for the economic mess. “The bad news for the Democrats is that the number of Americans who hold the GOP exclusively responsible for the recession has been steadily falling by about two to three points per month,” says CNN Polling Director Keating Holland. “At that rate, only a handful of voters will blame the economy on the Republicans by the time next year’s midterm elections roll around.” [More outstandingly bad news for the Democrats…ed]

Obama Job Approval Down to 49%

The latest Gallup Daily tracking results show 49% of Americans approving of the job Barack Obama is doing as president, putting him below the majority approval level for the first time in his presidency. Although the current decline below 50% has symbolic significance, most of the recent decline in support for Obama occurred in July and August. He began July at 60% approval. The ongoing, contentious debate over national healthcare reform has likely served as a drag on his public support, as have continuing economic problems. Americans are also concerned about the Obama administration’s reliance on government spending to solve the nation’s problems and the growing federal budget deficit. [Gallup desperately tries to explain away Obama’s plummeting poll numbers but the fact of the matter is the people in this country have finally opened their eyes and realized just what this guy represents. And they don’t like it…ed]

Holder’s True Motive

Attorney General Eric Holder adopted a tough guy pose when he announced that Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four others will be tried in federal court for the most heinous terror attack on Americans in history. “After eight years of delay,” he intoned, “those allegedly responsible for the attacks of September 11 will finally face justice. It is past time to finally act.” Where to begin? The claim that the Bush administration was somehow dilatory sets a new standard for gall, particularly coming from Eric Holder. As former federal prosecutor Andrew McCarthy points out, “The principal reason there were so few military trials is the tireless campaign conducted by leftist lawyers (including Holder) to derail military tribunals by challenging them in the courts.” Those lawyers threw up hundreds of roadblocks. Military detentions and tribunals violated, they claimed, the U.S. Constitution, the Geneva Conventions, and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. Litigating all this has taken years. [The gall of this guy to blame the Bush administration for the delay in trying these terrorists when in fact Mr. Holder and his fellow liberal lawyers were busy REPRESENTING the bad guys all these years!…ed]

Online Video Game: A New American Revolution And The Toppling Of The Obama Administration

usofearth.com—Chaos ensues throughout the nation! The Second American Revolution is in full swing by February of 2011, with lists posted by patriots, county by county, naming dozens of government employees and the bounties that can be fetched by their capture. After 7 weeks of fighting in every state, and with the refusal of most United States military branches to obey orders to fire upon American citizens, Obama’s forces are slowly whittled away. The remnants of the Obama loyalists retreat to Virginia. After tens of thousands of their troops are killed, The International Service Union Empire (I.S.U.E.) has just 40,000 left, but still controls three full counties in the name of former President Barack Hussein Obama… Or so they think. The Congress of Rejected and Neglected Youth (C.O.R.N.Y.) controls three counties near Washington D.C., with reports of having at least 60,000 loyalists for Obama.

The Federal Reserve has two counties under control. The Cong, also un-affectionately known by patriots as the American Politboro, consists of former Democratic Congressional Leaders and control two counties. The Americorp Civil Defense Forces control four counties. A group of Obama loyalists, mostly comprised of members of the Black Tigers and the Nation of Malsi, have a grip on 3 more counties. Patriot revolution is exploding in every county with a rage unseen since the first American Revolution. Patriots from all over the United States are closing in on them….

CIA Secret ‘Torture’ Prison Found at Fancy Horseback Riding Academy

The CIA built one of its secret European prisons inside an exclusive riding academy outside Vilnius, Lithuania, a current Lithuanian government official and a former U.S. intelligence official told ABC News this week. Where affluent Lithuanians once rode show horses and sipped coffee at a café, the CIA installed a concrete structure where it could use harsh tactics to interrogate up to eight suspected al-Qaeda terrorists at a time. A full report on the prison can be seen on ABC’s World News with Charles Gibson tonight. “The activities in that prison were illegal,” said human rights researcher John Sifton. “They included various forms of torture, including sleep deprivation, forced standing, painful stress positions.” [Don’t you wish abc would have launched this tenacious of an investigation into Barack Hussein Obama during the presidential campaign? Sleep deprivation?? Forced STANDING?? Painful stress positions?? You know what, our TROOPS go through tougher shit than this during TRAINING! Look folks, we are talking about maniacal TERRORISTS all over the world, including within our own country, who are hell bent on murdering innocent Americans ANYWHERE including your local shopping mall so frankly I could care less what is being done to those who are captured in order to get information out of them to prevent attacks against Americans…ed]

Holder Can’t Say Whether Osama Bin Laden Would Be Tried in Civilian or Military Court

Attorney General Eric Holder, under close questioning by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), couldn’t say what the United States would do with al-Qaeda terrorist Osama bin Laden if we ever caught him. Holder testified Wednesday before the Senate Judiciary Committee about why he chose to bring bin Laden’s lieutenant — suspected 9/11 mastermind Khalid Shekh Mohammed (KSM) — to the U.S. to be tried in a civilian federal court in New York City rather than before a military tribunal. Graham, a former military prosecutor, grilled Holder as if the attorney general were himself on trial, telling Holder that by trying an enemy combatant in a civilian court “We’re making history here – bad history.” [Of course Holder couldn’t answer this question because this civilian trial crap for terrorists is nothing more that an Obama administration political stunt, the safety and security of the American people be damned…ed]

Behind missed Gitmo deadline: No one wants jailees

President Barack Obama is now confirming what many have long suspected: He will miss his January deadline to close the Guantanamo prison — partly because he cannot persuade other nations to take the detainees. Prisoners like Walid Abu Hijazi. The 29-year-old Palestinian is nearing his eighth year at Guantanamo even though the U.S. approved his release in February 2008. No one else has been willing to allow him, or dozens of others, into their territory. This dilemma is one of the chief obstacles to closing the jail, according to lawyers and human rights groups who monitor U.S. detention policy. Most say Washington bears the main blame because it also refuses to accept prisoners on American soil. “It’s very difficult to persuade third countries to accept the political or security risks involved, especially when the United States has been unwilling to accept that risk itself,” said Matthew Waxman, a professor at Columbia Law School. [Countries all around the planet decried our use of Club Gitmo to hold captured terrorists yet refuse to step up and accept and deal with any of its inhabitants so Obama can stupidly try and fulfill his campaign pledge to close the thing down. So much for the messiah’s universal appeal…ed]

Did Holder stiff Senate on Justice Dept. lawyers who defended jihadis?

Some Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee were taken aback Wednesday by Attorney General Eric Holder’s refusal to reveal conflicts of interest involving Justice Department lawyers who, before joining the Obama administration, worked on behalf of Guatanamo detainees. One reason it has taken so long to deal with the Guantanamo cases is the number of legal challenges lodged by lawyers for the detainees, some of whom are now working on detainee matters in the Obama Justice Department. At Wednesday’s Judiciary Committee hearing, amid discussion of Holder’s decision to grant 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed full American constitutional rights, the issue was brought up by Republican Sen. Charles Grassley, who told the attorney general: [Word has it that the United States Attorney General Eric Holder, used to work for a law firm that represented several terrorist suspects during the Bush administration…ed]

A failed presidency is now unavoidable

For the past couple of months I have worried about the risks of a failed presidency. No one should want this, regardless of party affiliation. It is harmful and dangerous to our economy and country. However, it appears obvious to me that the royal regime known as Obama has ended. (SNIP) We have a failed presidency that cannot be retrieved. The dream cannot be rebuilt because there was never a foundation to begin with. It was all show and no substance. Yes, it created much excitement and (false) hope. But so did Elmer Gantry and James Jones. However, the image was akin to an old Hollywood set, all facade and no depth. Now the winds of reality are slowly and inexorably tearing the facade away. [Obama will be a Jimmy Carter one termer, there is little doubt of that. He has been exposed as an all hat and no cattle phony and voters will be bailing on this guy and his far left agenda in droves come 2010 no matter how hard he and his Democrat party try and grab onto conservative ideals in the coming months…ed]

Ten months after inauguration, stress is showing on President Obama’s face

President Obama didn’t look his age when he took office in January. Ten months later, nobody would mistake him for a kid. There are flecks of gray in the mane, and Obama, who is 48, no longer looks like the kind of guy who glides through life. “Every day, I wake up thinking, ‘How can I give those folks who are out of work right now a job? How can I make sure that people who don’t have health care get health care? How can I make sure that I’m doing right by those young men and women who are in Afghanistan?'” Obama said. [Yeah, he’s been pushing a pretty aggressive agenda to run our great country into the ground as soon as he possibly can so that might explain the stress cracks on his mug and the gray on the grape. Perhaps he’ll soon realize he has absolutely no clue what he is doing and just quit?…ed]

Dr. James David Manning Claims Homeland Security Plans To Arrest Him For Alleged Threats Against Barack Hussein Obama

Pastor James David Manning claims his arrest for allegedly threatening the life of Barack Hussein Obama, aka the long legged mac daddy, by agents of the Department of Homeland Security is imminent.
