Crush Liberalism

Liberalism: Why think when you can “feel”?

The week in review

Let’s recap the prior week’s news nuggets, shall we?

That brilliant foreign policy expert veep we have, the gaffe-tastic Joe Biden, thanked Spanish prime minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero for his help in Iraq.  Someone forgot to let the Vice-Plagiarist know that Zap was elected right after the Madrid train bombing by al Qaeda in 2004, promising immediate withdrawal in response to the bombing.  As soon as Zap took office, he made good on his cowardly promise.  Brilliant, Joe.  Boy, it sure is a good thing we finally have people with brains running the show!

President Oprompter feels that “I think it’s important to engage your critics … because not only will you occasionally change their mind but, more importantly, sometimes they will change your mind”.  Of course…which would explain why the five people the prez called upon during this town hall meeting just so happened to be, miracle of all miracles, avid Obama supporters!

In 2006, Rahm Emmanuel made a compelling case for opposing corporate welfare and for taking pride in welfare reform that took place during the Clinton years.  Now the same man thinks that corporate bailouts (same diff as corporate welfare, aren’t they?) are an awesome idea, as is his boss’ Porkulus bill that dismantles welfare reform.  It’s like the man says one thing and does another or something!  I know, I know…paranoid of me to conclude that, huh?

Uhhh-bama hits the late night talk show circuit, 60 Minutes, and several other televised appearances in order to sell his socialist crap sandwich to America.  As a result of the smooth brutha’s sermons, support for said crap sandwich has…dropped an additional 5%.  Keep talking, sir!  You can defeat this thing yet.

Add The Economist to the list of right-of-center pundits/publications who should have consulted with Coach Dennis Green before endorsing The One, because they’re now finding out that Obama is who we thought he was!  They now have buyer’s remorse.  Q and O asks them “What leadership position of any importance has the man ever held that would indicate he had what it took to lead as President?  And why didn’t you explore that question, its answer and ramifications before you jumped on the Hope and Change bandwagon?”

Candidate O promised us that whole “95% of working families” tax cut thingy.  We adults warned the Kool-Aid drinkers and economic illiterates that (ignoring the reality that 95% of Americans don’t pay taxes) he, like other Democrats, don’t cut taxes…they raise them.  Clinton did the same thing in 1992, running on a “middle class tax cut” then promptly reneging on the deal (some would say “lied”, but why quibble over semantics?) and raising our taxes.  The Obamessiah is now doing the same thing.  Awesome video montage here.  The last two Democrat presidents have been pathological liars, saying whatever the sheeple want to hear.  It’s like they’re so hopelessly dishonest they can’t help themselves.

Like I said before: elections have consequences.

  1. How absurd that Obama claims to believe “it’s important to engage your critics” when he ran like a scalded cat from Rush Limbaugh’s offer to debate his socialist agenda. Engage your critics indeed!

    Say it ain’t so ..”O”.
    I’m sure that was simply a coincidence. His people would never ever ever choreograph an email session. Right?
    And KG is right! Did Omama ever go on Fox News?

  3. Jim Jones would have been real proud of him. Obama keeps pouring the “kool aid” and the simple minded fools keep lapping it up.

  5. Joe Biden is perhaps the second biggest moron to ever hold the office of Vice President. Immediately following The Boreacle.

  6. What’s the opinion out there one today’s news about the government, GM & Chrysler.

    I’ll give the president a thumb up on finally getting the clue that America has Bankruptcy Laws for a reason and maybe the Big Three should avail themselves of that option.

    However Two Big Thumbs Down on the government forced removal of the CEO of GM. The Government should have no role at all in the removal of a CEO. It should be the job of the stock holders of each company. Maybe the removals should have been part of the original agreement back in January that the CEO’s and Boards would have to step down due to mismanagement to receive the bail out. Now it’s an overextending of governmental power into our lives.

    One step forward, two steps back.

  7. tnjack – nice to see you! You’re right — The Obamapromptor isn’t wired to take a hard question.

    Steve – I agree. The government has absolutely no business sticking their noses into private companies. The power grab these people are pulling off is appalling.

    I would be much happier with the removal of Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Maxine Waters, Chuck Shumer, Nancy Pelosi….and the rest of the congressional criminals who have their dirty little hands in this mess!

  8. tnjack, I believe all of those you listed are up for re election this cycle. This could be where the right can finally put the breaks on this leftward express. No one thought Rostencowski would have been turned out in 94 but it happened.

  9. Engage your critics – yeah, that’s why democrats boycotted an entire debate during the election because … wait for it … it was hosted by Fox News.

    GM – this is a chuckler. Obama first removes the GM, then declares the government to be the warantee backer for GM products, then suggests ways for the government to dictate the type of vehicles GM will manufacture from here on in. Finally, he clarifies that the government in no way is interested in running GM. This gets me wondering if he really believes the crap he expouses or if his teleprompter/flat screen TV was on the fritz that day.

  10. I believe Obama really doesn’t know what he’s doing. He has several advisors around him that are telling him what policies to take even if one policy contradicts another. Over time, the American People will see threw his jumbled disingenuous rhetoric. In the mean time, the Republicans need to get off their asses. They need to point out these gaffs and contradictions and slowly take the Dems down as the party of emotional reaction rather than the party of new ideas.

  11. I never thought this would be possible. Biden actually looks good compared to our current President. Hope Team Obama keeps him out in the public eye.

  12. Steve,
    I disagree a little. I think Obama knows exactly what he is doing, and that is to cause as much failure in the currentl system as possible. This gives him (and leftards) reason to say Hey, we tried to fix these things and it did not work…we need more gov’t control/intervention. What I honestly seeing coming down the pipe is positions like CEO of GM, etc become the same political “payback” in the same manner as Fannie/Freddie.

    Also I believe he knows that scaling back on tax writeoffs for charities are going to kill charities. When the single mom now cannot go to her local chucrch or shelter, where will she HAVE to turn for assistance…Yep, Gubment. Creating a whole new dependency class, those who could rely on charieits for survival but can no longer because the charities are gone.

    In the mean time…stock up on food, water and ammo!
