Crush Liberalism

Liberalism: Why think when you can “feel”?

NYT/CBS completely submerged in Obama tank

NYT/CBS poll: Obama maintains “clear lead”, by 11%.”

If, by “clear lead”, you mean “3% – 4%” in multiple sources (including 4% in PA), then yeah…”clear lead”.

Like I said before: polls are crap.  They never predict turnout.

Like I also said before: “Nope…no liberal media bias!”

For Obama, charity begins at home…someone else’s home, that is

We all know about how millionaire Barry O leaves his half-brother to live in squalor in Kenya, all while telling us when he was running for the U.S. Senate (you know, that job he never shows up for?) in 2004 that “It’s that fundamental belief — I am my brother’s keeper, I am my sister’s keeper — that makes this country work.”

Well, add another Uhhh-bama relative living in squalor: his aunt.

Look, I’m not saying the guy is to be responsible for every distant relative.  I mean, I do well for myself, and there are aunts, uncles, and cousins I haven’t seen in a few years, so I have no idea if they could use my help or anything.  But that said, (a) I’m not the one who said “I am my brother’s keeper”; and (b) I’m not the one who used relatives as background images in my self-glowing political narrative.  Barry O speaks fondly of his aunt in that book that Ayers helped him write, yet he can’t take the time out to help lift her out of poverty?  That doesn’t sound like the Barry O who told us at Saddleback that ““Americans’ greatest moral failure in my lifetime has been that we still don’t abide by that basic precept in Matthew that whatever you do for the least of my brothers, you do for me.”

Besides, it’s not like Obeelzebub hasn’t paid his aunt a visit quite recently:

Speaking outside her home in Flaherty Way, South Boston, on Tuesday, Ms Onyango, 56, confirmed she was the “Auntie Zeituni” in Mr Obama’s memoir. She declined to answer most other questions about her relationship with the presidential contender until after the November 4 election. “I can’t talk about it, I just pray for him, that’s all,” she said, adding: “After the 4th, I can talk to anyone.”

“Hey, Auntie!  Long time, no see!  Yeah, listen…keep your trap shut.  You see what my minions did to that plumber in Ohio that had the nerve to question my judgment, leadership, and fitness for office?  Don’t think I won’t get them to do the same thing to you!  Now kill that cockroach over there, and take care of yourself.”

Notes Slu:

The media told us that when Obama visited his grandmother, it spoke well of his character. It seems fair to take the living conditions of his extended relatives as a similar glimpse into who this man is, and whether his personal actions match his lofty rhetoric.

1 Timothy 5:8 says “If anyone does not provide for his relatives, and especially for his immediate family, he has denied the faith and is worse than an unbeliever.”  “Spread the wealth around”, indeed.

Hope and change and yada-yada-yada.  This man is truly vile and despicable.  May God’s will be done.

Obama: I’m not a socialist

In NC, The Obamaliar told everyone he’s not a socialist and he’d appreciate it if folks would stop referring to him as one.

Aside from his well-documented “spread the wealth” and “SCOTUS should have forced redistribution from the bench” comments, and aside from his work with the Democratic Socialists of America, and aside from his attending socialist conferences while at Columbia, and aside from his admission that he “carefully” chose and sought out Marxist friends and professors…aside from all of that, there’s no reason to believe that he’s a socialist wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Cartoon of the day

Ain’t that the truth!  From Michael Ramirez:

Obama’s informerical full of lies, says…the AP?

In related news, Hell freezes over.  Excerpt:

Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama was less than upfront in his half-hour commercial Wednesday night about the costs of his programs and the crushing budget pressures he would face in office.

Obama’s assertion that “I’ve offered spending cuts above and beyond” the expense of his promises is accepted only by his partisans. His vow to save money by “eliminating programs that don’t work” masks his failure throughout the campaign to specify what those programs are – beyond the withdrawal of troops from Iraq.

Mr. Woodward may want to go check his credit report in the next few days to see if any unauthorized inquiries have been done.  Hopefully, he doesn’t live in Ohio.

UPDATE: Government officials snoop on Joe the Plumber’s records

UPDATES KEEP ON COMING, BELOW.

Absolutely shameful.  From Columbus:

“State and local officials are investigating if state and law-enforcement computer systems were illegally accessed when they were tapped for personal information about “Joe the Plumber.”

 

Samuel Joseph Wurzelbacher became part of the national political lexicon Oct. 15 when Republican presidential candidate John McCain mentioned him frequently during his final debate with Democrat Barack Obama.

The 34-year-old from the Toledo suburb of Holland is held out by McCain as an example of an American who would be harmed by Obama’s tax proposals.

Public records requested by The Dispatch disclose that information on Wurzelbacher’s driver’s license or his sport-utility vehicle was pulled from the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles database three times shortly after the debate.

Information on Wurzelbacher was accessed by accounts assigned to the office of Ohio Attorney General Nancy H. Rogers, the Cuyahoga County Child Support Enforcement Agency and the Toledo Police Department.

It has not been determined who checked on Wurzelbacher, or why. Direct access to driver’s license and vehicle registration information from BMV computers is restricted to legitimate law enforcement and government business.

Paul Lindsay, Ohio spokesman for the McCain campaign, attempted to portray the inquiries as politically motivated. “It’s outrageous to see how quickly Barack Obama’s allies would abuse government power in an attempt to smear a private citizen who dared to ask a legitimate question,” he said. …

The moral of the story?  Don’t ask questions of public officials…they and their surrogates will make your life a living Hell.

BTW, it looks like Ace beat the C-bus fishwrap to the story.  Kudos, Ace.

UPDATE (10/28/2008 – 07:20 A.M. EST): Well, well, well!  It looks like the initiator of this brownshirt snoop job is none other than the OH Secretary of Job and Family Services…a Democrat who just so happened to donate the max amount to Barry O and who, as sheer luck would have it, initiated the search right after the third debate whereby Joe’s name was invoked against The One.  But the governor of OH, who just so happens to be a Democrat, is satisfied there’s no political motive here.  Well, isn’t that reassuring?

The left gets bent about Bush snooping on al Qaeda phone calls, but on American citizens who ask leaders questions?  Not so much.

UPDATE (10/28/2008 – 08:50 P.M. EST): Joe the Plumber’s got himself an attorney.  Plus, the snooping has come from three different government agencies in Ohio.  One is the aforementioned Secretary of Job and Family Services.  Another is an outside contractor with access to the Attorney General’s test account.  Then there is the Toledo Police Dept., and a clerk there has been charged for it.

UPDATE (10/30/2008 – 07:55 A.M. EST): More extensive than we thought.  Big Brother ‘Bama ought to be a hoot when he’s officially running the Snoop show, eh?
