Crush Liberalism

Liberalism: Why think when you can “feel”?

Reid: GOP is “stalling” a motion that I made

If, by “stalling”, you mean advancing YOUR motion to the floor of the Senate for an actual vote so America can see you take a position, then yeah…stalling.  From Ace of Spades HQ:

This is a little inside baseball but it nicely demonstrates just what tools the Democrats are.

Reid and Dick Durbin are accusing Senate Republicans of ‘stalling’ debate on a housing bailout bill. How did those nasty Republicans do that? By voting FOR a motion Reid himself made.

Yesterday Reid brought up a bill that would have cut off funding for the troops in Iraq and set a withdrawal date. They seem to do this every week or so, I imagine it’s a fundraising tactic. Normally the Republicans filibuster, the nutroots hit the donate button and business goes on.

But the evil Republicans didn’t play by the rules and called Harry’s bluff basically saying, ‘hey, there’s a lot of good shit going on in Iraq to talk about, so let’s have it’. This sets the stage for 30 hours of floor debate on Iraq.

Now Reid is upset that he can’t bring up the housing bailout bill and because the Republicans exposed him as a craven jackass who uses money for the troops as part of just another legislative game to be played.

And to top things off by demonstrating just how clueless he is, Reid said yesterday that ‘a civil war rages’ in Iraq. Harry? You need some updated talking points.

So when Senate Democrats say they ‘support the troops’, remember what they really mean is they support their use as a political weapon but not much else. 

If you have not yet done so, feel free to go ahead and question the left’s patriotism.

Hutchinson gets the moonbatosphere in a tizzy

Not that it’s tough to get those mouthbreathers in a huff, but Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchinson (R-TX) did her part.  Here’s the deal:

Speaking about a Democratic proposal to force Iraq troop withdrawal within 120 days, Hutchison said Tuesday that such a proposal would “put a bullet right in the hearts of our troops who are there.”Hutchison had joined fellow Republican leaders to question the political motivations behind the 35th Iraq related vote in the Senate over the past year, and was trying to make the point that mandatory withdrawal on the heels of recent military success would undermine the troops.

But her choice of words made it sound like Democrats were advocating something that would kill U.S. troops, and it didn’t go over well with Democratic leaders.

I am reminded of the parting words a former friend of mine once used about me: “If it walks like a duck, and it talks like a duck…”

Hutchinson should not back away from her words.  She is 110% correct.

Dubious endorsement of the NYT

After the Old Gray Hag ran her “heavy on innuendo, light on the proof” hit piece on McCain last week, they received (deservedly so) tons of scorn.  Heck, McCain’s standing with the electorate improved as a result of the smear!  With that kind of negative publicity, the NYT certainly didn’t need this latest headache:

Dan Rather vouches for professionalism and aptitude of the NYT’s reporters and editors.

Now if Danny Kinko’s gives you his seal of approval, that plus a quarter will get you a steaming hot cup of Jack Squat!

Race-baiting moonbat Congresswoman pulls a Ray Nagin

Ray Nagin should have put a patent on his “Chocolate City” expression before Rep. Dianne Watson (D-CA) stole it for her own demagoguery.  From a Black History Town Hall meeting last night in D.C. at Howard University:

Did you know your representatives can not vote? They can only vote in the committee as a whole. So what you’re going to have to do is declare the District [of Columbia] something like a state so they can have a proportional representation who vote. But that would give this district two senators and there are a lot of people on that floor who don’t want to see that occur because if there’s a chocolate city, this is it.

That must be it!  Whitey doesn’t want any “chocolate” folks in the Senate.  Way to spread that message to college kids, moron.

Michelle Malkin reminds us of what the Chocolate Lady said about Ward Connerly (a black man) for marrying outside of his race:

He’s married to a white woman. He wants to be white. He wants a colorless society. He has no ethnic pride. He doesn’t want to be black. I said that.

Does that mean that all black men who marry white women are trying to “be white”, or only those who stray from the liberal massah’s plantation?

You stay classy, Watson!

Washington Times getting P.C.

I’d expect this kind of claptrap from the Washington comPost, but not the Washington Times.  Disappointed, I don’t mind telling ya!  From Lone Wacko:

A purported memo from John Solomon, new editor of the Washington Times, is here. It updates their style guide to remove scare quotes around certain phrases, and also:

1) Clinton will be the headline word for Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton.

2) Gay is approved for copy and preferred over homosexual, except in clinical references or references to sexual activity.

3) The quotation marks will come off gay marriage (preferred over homosexual marriage).

4) Moderate is approved, but centrist is still allowed.

5) We will use illegal immigrants, not illegal aliens.

“Aliens” and “illegal aliens” are used in the U.S. Code many times. “Illegal immigrants” appears, as far as I can tell, only one time. And, while some might disagree, “immigrant” implies legality and in that way “illegal immigrant” is an oxymoron. It might also indicate that the Washington Times is starting down the slippery slope towards being like the Washington Post.

It could have been worse. They could have pulled a Harry Reid and called them “undocumented Americans“!
