Mitt Romney Campaign Pulls Rick Perry Attack Ad From YouTube....

Interesting.....

There‘s an interesting story brewing after Mitt Romney’s campaign posted an attack advertisement on YouTube and then later removed it.

An Unprecedented 26 Million Americans Are Now Underemployed

It just keeps getting better and better!

While the number of unemployed workers has held steady at around 14 million in recent months, another telling measure of frustration in the labor market—the number of underemployed individuals—rose for a third consecutive month in September, by almost a half of a million people.

Soros among hosts of New York fundraiser for Elizabeth Warren...so surprising.....

Soros....Warren...I'm so surprised....What's the matter Elizabeth...can't "do it on your own"....?.

Liberal billionaire George Soros and New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman are among those hosting a $1,000 a plate dinner tonight in New York for Elizabeth Warren’s Democratic Senate campaign at the home of Karen and Dennis Mehiel, a former candidate for lieutenant governor of New York.

What Happened to Obama's Call for Civility of Speech?...pesky memo......

The ONLY one's who were supposed to obey that pesky memo were you and me......

As Americans, we expect a degree of civility and straight talk when it comes to policy, and we don't care for political games and posturing meant to distract us from the issues that matter. Unfortunately, our President has become one of the worst offenders against responsible, civil dialogue in today's political system. Is he alone in this? No, and anyone who argues otherwise is selling something. But, has he made civil dialogue in politics a figurehead of his approach to governing? Do his past statements come across as hypocritical? Well, yes. They absolutely do.

All Huffy, Joe Biden Stands By Rape Reference to GOP.....

Good lord...just think....he's 2nd in line......

Vice President Joe Biden now says he didn’t make a reference to rape, and got testy with HUMAN EVENTS when we asked if he would like to retract his comments that the number of sexual assaults would increase if Republicans don’t sign on to Barack Obama’s latest “jobs” proposal.

Romney's Lawnmower Problem...

This WAS the REAL Romney!

At first Romney literally laughed off Perry's lunge. But the fakeness of the laugh was quickly revealed by the sudden and strange loss of Romney's customary composure. Somewhat flustered at the unexpected attack, Romney started grabbing at Perry's shoulder and made a nerdy appeal for help to "Anderson" after Perry kept up his prepared, though poorly executed, patter.

Cain Isn't Pulling a Romney on Abortion

Joe Lawler takes Herman Cain to task for not communicating his pro-life position clearly during his interview with Piers Morgan on CNN last night.

However, I think his answer to Morgan and to David Gregory over the weekend is perfectly consistent with what he has said about the question of abortion in the past. Consider Cain's reasoning for declining to sign the Susan B. Anthony List's Pro-Life Presidential Pledge back in June:

Claptrap Legislation...is there any other kind these days?!

I do not know what the learned political scientists of the Republic say about it, but it seems to me that the laws of the land are now so poorly written that almost no one knows what they mean. That is a government bureaucrat's delight!

Cain's 9-9-9 Tax Plan Isn’t Perfect—But It's Better...

Cain’s 9-9-9 plan is not perfect. But then again, the good should never the enemy of the perfect.

Congressman Paul Ryan gives the plan a thumbs-up.

Supply-side mentor Art Laffer tells me it would be “far, far better than the current system.”

Jobless Claims Straddle Key Level; Big Upturn Still Elusive - CNBC

Some economists said the steady decline signals fewer layoffs and possibly stronger job growth in the months ahead. But they cautioned that employers are not yet hiring at healthy levels.

US Soldier in Afghanistan Burns Bill O’Reilly Books....hummmmmmmmm

I find this soldier a Pin Head....however, it's his actions as a member of our military that gives him the right to his opinion as well as enabling mine...

A box of donated books from Bill O’Reilly was allegedly burned and displayed on the Tumbler account of an alleged soldier in Afghanistan, Gawker reports. The account entitled “Everqueer” claims that the box of books was sent to soldiers at a remote outpost in Afghanistan, and burned on a Commander’s orders:

American Jobs Act isn't revenue neutral....Surprise!

As the United States is running a deficit in excess of $1 trillion, any un-offset costs, in this case the debt-service net of residual savings, must be borrowed. Therefore, on net, the American Jobs Act will increase the debt by $60.5 billion over 10 years. In the nearer term, the debt run-up is far more substantial — peaking at $426.4 billion in 2013.

So, when the president tells us that “the American Jobs Act is not going to add to the debt,” he’s not telling us the whole story. Sure, if the U.S. had the cash sitting around to finance the near-term deficit binge, then this wouldn’t really be any issue. But we don’t. Instead, we are on a one-way street to financial collapse. And the president’s shiny new car will only get us there faster.

Actors chorus Racism tag on Tea Party.....DOPES.....

They are "actors".....does this give them some god-given insight the rest of don't possess. I wander if ANY of these clowns have EVER attended a Tea Party event? I believe we all know the answer to that.
I attend Tea Party Events....I AM a Tea Partier. My candidate is Herman Cain.....explain that.

Penn may have been late to the tea-party-is-racist bandwagon, but his references to “the N-word” and lynching upped the ante significantly. Penn’s fellow actor Morgan Freeman appeared on “Piers Morgan Tonight” three weeks ago and said the tea party was motivated by wanting “to get the black man out of the White House.”

Joe Biden blames.....Yup! Bush again!

Funny....where was HE when this was going on.....ey? Didn't happen in a vacuum.

When making his case for Congress to pass a $35 billion stimulus package, Vice President Joe Biden claimed that there is “a simple reason” for the rise of rapes and murders in many cities, pointing to the “God-awful Ponzi schemes” the Bush administration “allowed Wall Street to engage in.”

Mitt does not reach out to Tea Party...at his own risk...

He can't. He doesn't stand for what they - WE stand for.

Two of America’s most active national tea party organizations say former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney has made no effort to win them over, despite his apparent need to attract more grassroots support.

Obama "creates" Jobs....however no pay attached for your effort or talent....

And this is the Administration who can create job after job after job....
They just forgot to tell us they aren't "paying" jobs....a rather important component, I'd say.....

President Barack Obama’s re-election campaign is asking artists to design promotional posters that convey a message: “support American jobs.” The brutal irony for artists, however, is that they will receive no payment for their work.

Occupy Wall Street (Hearts) Wall Street...

The worst thing about Occupy Wall Street is that it's ruining a good cause: hating Wall Street. Just when opposing Wall Street was gaining momentum, these brain-dead zombies are forcing us to choose between thieving bankers and them.

If the Flea Party were really concerned about the greedy "Wall Street 1 Percent," shifting money around to make themselves richer and everyone else poorer, their No. 1 target should be George Soros​.

Cain draws boisterous support at Western GOP conference....

Republicans leapt to their feet with vigorous applause over and over for Herman Cain on Wednesday, an expression of grassroots support that accentuated his continual climb in the polls, where he is now neck-and-neck with front-runner Mitt Romney.

The Debate Democrats Fear ....

Funny......if it weren't so true!

The Debate Democrats Fear

Republicans fret over 2012 friendly fire...WEENIES!

What the heck is a "Primary" for????? Hummmmmmm? Throwing flowers at one another? I seem to remember Hillary & Barack ripping each others throats out.
I hate these "Debates" ( and I use the word loosely!) because I think all they are is a hunt for "Gotcha" moments.
However how else can you find out anything about these guys?
From viewing as much as I have been able....I know Perry seems out of his realm....Mitt Romney is...well, Mitt Romney. As one Talk Show host in Boston says, there are 2 Mitt's....Nasty Willard and Wonk Mitt. Ya never know which one will emerge.
I now know Ron Paul is smart and a tad nuts.
Newt is a Professor I'd kill to take a class with but I don't want for President.
I'm impressed every time by Hermain Cain. I like that he sticks by his guns, LOVES this country and seems unflappable. A good trait.
Rick Santorium, I like his financial plan with regard to manufacturing...
Michele has disappointed me each time.....the rest...who cares.
But slugging it out in the "Arena of Ideas" is what it's all about. The "Establishment" GOP gave us John McCain and now want to serve up Mitt Romney...need I say more?

Republicans are worried the increasingly rancorous friendly fire among their presidential hopefuls could cost them their chance to beat President Obama in 2012.

For weeks, the venomous tone had been escalating as the first primaries rapidly approached and candidates fought against the notion that former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney was running away with the nomination.

Art Laffer Spouting Nonsense on 9-9-9 ...

And here is the "Anti" Laffer points....good ones too....

I guess somebody had to try to defend Herman Cain’s 9-9-9 plan. Art Laffer does so in today’s Wall Street Journal, but his defense is really embarrassing.

First, Laffer describes the business tax component of 9-9-9 as a 9 percent tax on “net business profits.” This is false. Cain’s business tax, as described by his campaign, applies to “Gross income less all purchases from other U.S. located businesses, all capital investment, and net exports.” Because wages and salaries are not deductible, this is a tax on much more than just business profits.

“9-9-9” (What Herman Cain’s Not Saying) ...

I enjoy the back and forth about this Plan. I tend to like Art Laffer alot, the Architect of Reaganomics...and he likes this. But the points both pro and con are great and thought provoking. Herman Cain has struck a cord.
You don't see people ripping their hair out over Mitt Romney's 59 page plan...or whatever it is he's proposed today. Remember...it would be hard to debate the merits of Mitt's plan because like him...I'm sure it changes daily with the prevailing political winds....

Let me begin by saying I have a lot of respect for Herman Cain. He is a vision of what being an American is all about. You work, you persevere, and you succeed. He is an attractive American and my hat is off to him for his success as a leader in the business world.

However, during the debate last night, Mr. Cain made the unfortunate choice to include “accountants” in his list of folks who seek to purposely attack his plan for their own gain.

Mini Solyndra: Truck Stop that Received $424,000 in Stimulus Fund Grant Goes Broke...

OK...I have just about had it.
If this type of loan had gone on during the Bush Administration, it would be banner headlines above the fold EVERY day until "someone paid" with their career. The drum beat would be deafening. Yet, this and MANY others are on page 20 below the fold....
Mainstream Reporting...?....heck...you can hear crickets chirping.
The out right incompetence of people making these decisions is astounding. As a small businessperson...I'm awed daily by the influence of the stimulus money slush fund. You can't convince me it's anything but.
This isn't about Obama...this is about his Administrations inability to run this country.
Oh, I take that back...they can run this country. Right off a cliff.

The company qualified for the taxpayer-funded stimulus grant even after it had filed for bankruptcy. Yes, bankruptcy.

Obama has more cash from financial sector than GOP hopefuls combined, data show ....

But he's "down" with Occupy Wall Street.....you get whiplash trying to keep up with this man.

Despite frosty relations with the titans of Wall Street, President Obama has still managed to raise far more money this year from the financial and banking sector than Mitt Romney or any other Republican presidential candidate, according to new fundraising data.

Reid signals government jobs must take priority over private-sector jobs.....

Of course! Why would he worry about the Private Sector? After all...they are just the ECONOMIC ENGINE OF AMERICA! We've already lost 55/M Manufacturing jobs in America....that not enough for you?!

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) on Wednesday indicated Congress needs to worry about government jobs more than private-sector jobs, and that this is why Senate Democrats are pushing a bill aimed at shoring up teachers and first-responders.

Rick Perry to announce flat tax as part of economic plan...

“I want to make the tax code so simple that evenTimothy Geithner can file his taxes on time,” Perry said, a reference to the embarrassment that complicated the Obama treasury secretary’s confirmation in 2009.

Laffer Defends the 999 Plan...The Gandalf of Supply Side Economics....

Economist Arthur Laffer, the Gandalf of supply-side economics, spoke well of Herman Cain’s 999 Plan during an interview with HUMAN EVENTS last week. Today he expanded his thoughts in a Wall Street Journal editorial. Laffer begins by offering a critique of the current paperwork-avalanche tax code:

Arthur B. Laffer: Cain's Stimulating '9-9-9' Tax Reform...

It used to be that the sole purpose of the tax code was to raise the necessary funds to run government. But in today's world the tax mandate has many more facets. These include income redistribution, encouraging favored industries, and discouraging unfavorable behavior.

Occupy the Golf Course...

You just knew there was a punch line coming, didn’t you?

Senate votes to end 'Fast and Furious' gun program...ya think?!

Just think.....to stop this...they actually had to have a VOTE......as if it should ever have reached this point?!

The Senate voted Tuesday to effectively block the Justice Department from undertaking gun-smuggling probes like the flawed "Operation Fast and Furious" aimed at breaking up networks running guns to Mexican drug cartels but that lost track of hundreds of the weapons, some of which were used to commit crimes in Mexico and the United States.

Santorum to Romney: 'You Just Don’t Have Credibility, Mitt, When It Comes to Repealing Obamacare' ....AMEN!

Mitt flips more than a crooked Real Estate Developer! I would not trust him here at all!

Former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania launched a frontal assault on former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney in last night's Republican presidential debate in Las Vegas, Nev., telling Romney he lacked credibility when he claimed he would repeal Obamacare because Romney's own health-care plan in Massachussets was the model for Obamacare.

Obama: Taxpayer-Funded Bus ‘Decked Out Pretty Good’ ...looks like the "Death Star"

When Obama took a similar taxpayer trip through Midwestern battleground states in August, the Associated Press reported that the Secret Service purchased a bus for the trip at a cost of $1.1 million.

Republicans, including Obama’s 2008 opponent Arizona Sen. John McCain, criticized the use of the campaign-style bus reportedly manufactured in Canada. McCain told USA Today the president was “clearly campaigning” on the “taxpayer's dime.”

Gallup: Herman Cain Is Top Choice of Tea Party and Southerners...

Republicans and Republican-leaning Independents who identify themselves as supporters of the Tea Party favor Herman Cain for president by a 9-point margin, according to Gallup.

Obama: 1, Informed Public: 0

Almost no one wants to cut government spending as much as I do. Ron Paul made a good start. But if we live in a world where our federal government spends one of every four dollars, and regulates virtually every aspect of our lives and businesses, it is a matter of democracy that we have that data. If government ever gets out of the business of trying to engineer the economy and society, I can relax about the Abstract. But that is not the world we live in now.

At the very moment our government is trying to do more than ever, it is informing us less than ever.

Dear Herman Cain: Replace 9-9-9 with a Flat Tax

Intrigue over the 9-9-9 plan has lifted Herman Cain to the top position (or number-two spot, depending on the poll) among GOP presidential candidates. Of course, Cain's dynamic personality and clear articulation of conservatism are also factors. Nevertheless, without the earthshaking proposal of abolishing the current tax system, Cain would still be a candidate struggling for name recognition from the second tier.

The Power of Herman Cain

One of my first church experiences was also the most memorable. It was a spontaneous occurrence, when the power went out.

I was in a huge, mostly black church in a rough part of town. This was at a time when church shootings in that city had reached epidemic proportions.

The pastor had started delivering his sermon when suddenly most of the lights went out. The stage and the auditorium were very dimly lit.

The Nightmare called Romneycare..

Welcome to your future. Mitt Romney left it as OUR future when he abandon Massachusetts....THIS is what is coming!

Lauren and Nick Destito had a wonderful life in Plainville. They paid their bills and raised two sons in a lovely four-bedroom colonial that they were just eight years away from owning outright.

But the economy collapsed in 2008 and soon crushed the small tree and landscaping business the couple had run since 1984.

Two Vans Hit Chinese Toddler…18 Passers-by Ignore Her Suffering...OMG....

And this is the nation we are going to roll over for?????

Gruesome footage of a toddler falling victim to two successive hit-and-run accidents and then being ignored by many passers-by at the scene last week in southern China continued to galvanize the nation Monday, prompting a fierce debate on the state of morality in Chinese society.

GOP looks at international tax revamp...

The idea behind the system is to encourage multinational companies to bring back their money to the U.S., where supporters of the change say the money could be invested. Proponents also argue the move would make U.S. companies more globally competitive, particularly since most industrialized countries have tax systems in which companies are only taxed in the country where it is earned.

Axelrod Underestimates Cain...

Yesterday, during an appearance on Morning Joe, David Axelrod dismissed Herman Cain's candidacy. (h/t Mark Hemingway of The Weekly Standard.)

I, for one, am glad that Axelrod doesn't take Cain seriously because if Axelrod isn't taking Cain seriously then it means that President Obama isn't taking Cain seriously. It means that the Obama White House has tunnel vision which is concentrated almost exclusively on Mitt Romney.

The Woman on the Plane

I love Ben Stein. He always puts life in perspective...however....I don't entirely agree with his final summation. However I'll let that slide...he wasn't feeling well.....

Monday
Here I am in my sickbed in Beverly Hills. I traveled last week from LAX to DCA, where I sat one row in front of the absolutely fattest woman I have ever seen. How she got on the airplane and down the aisle to her seat is a puzzle. She was so large that even sitting still, her ample knees pressed against the back of my seat.

Obama passes on meeting with 'Occupy' activists...hehehe

Ha! He wants to praise from a distance...just in case. Hasn't got an honest bone in his body....

President Obama has taken nearly every opportunity lately to express support for the “Occupy Wall Street” protesters, but he failed to meet with some of the movement’s activists when he had the chance on his Southern bus trip.

A group of “Occupy” activists in Greensboro, N.C., asked for a meeting with the president, who stayed overnight Monday in a local hotel. But Mr. Obama didn’t bite.

Romney Hasn't Earned the GOP Nomination

Notwithstanding the fact that not a single ballot has been cast in any of the Republican primaries, there seems to be a concerted effort by the liberal media to bestow the GOP nomination upon former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney.

Video: The ‘Horse Soldiers’ of 9/11...Never Forget!

Their secret mission: secure northern Afghanistan by advising the warring tribal factions that formed the Northern Alliance. During the 2011 Veterans Day Parade on November 11, a new monument to these men — and to all Americans in uniform — will make its way down New York City’s famed Fifth Avenue on the way to its final home, a stone’s throw from Ground Zero.

There ARE alot of reasons NOT to vote for Romney!re

Romney, we are told by establishment Republicans, is the smart choice for nominee, because his moderate positions (such as implementing the prototype for ObamaCare) will appeal to independent voters. Maybe so, but Mitt has handed his enemies propaganda gold in a campaign that promises to be the dirtiest ever, and fought by the other side over issues of personality, against an incumbent who, however inept his presidency may be, is still liked by a majority of the public.

Herman Cain: Runaway Slave

I keep having images of Herman Cain barefoot, covered in sweat and mud, wearing an old patchwork shirt and handmade burlap pants held up by a rope rather than a belt, out of breath and frantically running for his life; to freedom. Menacing sounds of barking dogs in the distance focused on Cain's scent. Not far behind, hot on Cain's trail, are black overseers determined to keep their fellow black slaves in check for their white liberal Democrat massas.

OccupyWallStreet Squatters Mock 9/11 ‘Shrine’ Statue...and we're surprised?

These folks just tire me.....

Activists at the Occupy Wall Street protests, either ignorant about the statue’s history or indifferent to it (the Occupy instigators, after all, mourned the death of Osama bin Laden), have mocked the sculpture as a supposed symbol of capitalism.

Kaczynski provided several photographs, including one he snapped himself in Zuccotti Park this morning:

Hermain Cain...Black American

We were reminded of these things in 2008 when Barack Obama was elected in part due to the color of his skin (and the promise of America’s first “African-American President” and a fulfillment of Martin Luther King Jr’s dream). Now just look what this focus on race got us: an inexperienced president whose solution for the ailing economy was to raise taxes, take over healthcare, nationalize certain automobile manufacturers, and regulate the financial sector to death (literally). And this is what makes Herman Cain’s announcement that he’s a black American rather than an African-American so refreshing: he’s turning back the dial on this race-above-all-else bunk.

8 Miracles That Saved America?.....

He can kick ass are write a great column!

Immediately afterward, I started reading their other book, "Seven Miracles That Saved America," and I have been equally inspired by it. But it has prompted me to wonder: Is there an eighth miracle coming and needed to save our republic again?

Herman Cain: Rocket Fuel for America....and he's NOT Mitt Romney!

What is particularly frustrating is that the party out of power, the Republican Party, is supposed to be carrying the torch for these values. But it’s barely happening. The Party has become bogged down with careerists, rear view mirror thinkers, and its own establishment of inside the beltway elite.

Nothing could speak more to this problem than establishment attitudes toward the remarkable Herman Cain.

Herman Cain leading in the polls now comes under fire from his opponents - and he doesn't care!

“He’s more of a Wall Street guy. I’m more of a Main Street guy,’’ Cain said of Romney, who co-founded and ran a venture-capital firm before entering politics.

“I actually made some pizza myself,’’ Cain said.

Cain said he’s connecting with GOP voters “because of my enthusiasm and positive attitude.”

Herman Cain - You lost me at Hello....

Visiting New York this week, I found the organized street protests against Wall Street were the talk of the town. But I’m sorry -- they lost me at hello.

Their rants to the media and those unfortunate enough to cross their paths have been all over the map -- from tirades over big business, to 9/11 conspiracy theories, to admitting not even knowing why they’re there -- but a common theme is that they’ve set their sights on rich people.

Obamacare starts to unravel.....YIPPEE!!!!!

The Obama administration Friday pulled the plug on a major program in the president's signature health overhaul law - a long-term care insurance plan dogged from the beginning by doubts over its financial solvency.

Targeted by congressional Republicans for repeal, the program became the first casualty in the political and policy wars over the health care law. It had been expected to launch in

CLASS Dismissed: Obama Administration Pulls Plug On Long-Term Care Program...

Federal officials on Friday effectively shut down part of the health care law that would have helped consumers cover some long-term-care costs, saying they could not find a way to make it work financially.

After looking at a variety of options, the Obama administration determined the CLASS Act program could not simultaneously meet three important criteria: be self-sustaining, financially sound for 75 years and affordable to consumers.

Charlie Baker comments on Obamacare...

When Obamacare was being debated, I said the bill's financials were a sham & that the CLASS Program was added to create fake revenue to justify the "budget neutrality" fallacy that the Administration was promoting at the time. Eventually, the truth comes out. This whole thing remains the biggest blown opportunity of my lifetime to do something "good" about all the stuff that's wrong with the US health care system.

Obama Talked About "Fast & Furious" Months Before Holder Claimed He Knew...

CNN's John King plays Holder's testimony to Congress on MAY 3, 2011, where he said he had only just recently heard about the Fast & Furious gunrunning program. "I'm not sure of the exact date, but I probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks," Attorney General Eric Holder said.

Then CNN compares Holder's testimony to what President Obama said in MARCH to CNN Espanol about the operation. "I heard on the news about this story that -- Fast and Furious, where allegedly guns were being run into Mexico, and ATF knew about it, but didn't apprehend those who had sent it." Transcript of the segment that aired on "John King USA" below:

Coast Guard member spit on near Occupy Boston tents

Once again Massachusetts....you make me proud..... You DISGUST me....
The Coast Guard in Boston confirmed that a woman in uniform was harassed and spat upon near Occupy Boston protesters.

The woman was walking to the train and said protesters spit on her twice, called her foul names and even threw a water bottle at her.

Now, the Coast Guard is warning all staff working on Atlantic Avenue to avoid those protesters while in uniform.

Warren Buffett made $62,855,038 last year...

And still is fighting over billions in taxes owed...why's he fighting them if he wants everyone to pay MORE.....

He said in an interview that the roughly $23 million difference between his AGI and taxable income was due largely to deductions he took for charitable giving and local taxes.

Two key reasons he only paid 17.4%, however, is because a lot of his income came from investments, which are taxed at a lower rate than wages, and because payroll taxes are assessed only on wage income.

Who's behind the Wall St. protests?...Spooky Dude...?!

There has been much speculation over who is financing the disparate protest, which has spread to cities across America and lasted nearly four weeks. One name that keeps coming up is investor George Soros, who in September debuted in the top 10 list of wealthiest Americans. Conservative critics contend the movement is a Trojan horse for a secret Soros agenda.

Unemployed numbers don't change....

The number of people applying for unemployment benefits fell slightly last week, a sign the job market isn't getting much better.

Applications ticked down by 1,000 to a seasonally adjusted 404,000, the Labor Department said Thursday.

The four-week average declined for the third straight week to 408,000. That's the lowest average in eight weeks.

Wingless, Bloodsucking and Parasitic: Meet the Flea Party!

So far, the only major accomplishment of the "Occupy Wall Street" protesters is that it has finally put an end to their previous initiative, "Occupy Our Mothers' Basements."

Oddly enough for such a respectable-looking group -- a mixture of adolescents looking for a cause, public sector union members, drug dealers, criminals, teenage runaways, people who have been at every protest since the Berkeley Free Speech Movement, people 95 percent of whose hair is concentrated in their ponytails, Andrea Dworkin​ look-alikes and other average Democrats -- they can't even explain what they're protesting.

Glenn Beck Interviews Hank Williams Jr.....

“Oh,” Williams responded in his slow southern drawl, “don’t tread on me or the freedom of speech.”

And apparently country radio hasn’t. According to Williams, his new song “Keep the Change” about the controversy has skyrocketed to number one. “The number one song in this country downloaded and streamed in country radio is ‑‑ is yours truly, and I‘m going to call it the people’s song,” he said.

It's Hard To Be a Racist...

Years ago it was easy to be a racist. All you had to be was a white person using some of the racial epithets that are routinely used in song and everyday speech by many of today's blacks. Or you had to chant "two, four, six, eight, we don't want to integrate" when a black student showed up for admission to your high school or college. Of course, there was that dressing up in a hooded white gown. In any case, you didn't have to be sophisticated to be a racist.

Executive Dictatorship: Obama Instructs Advisers to Push Through Stimulus Projects Without Pesky ‘Congressional Authorization’

George H.W. Bush embodies what Washington is missing...AMEN!

I have been lucky enough to meet this man...he is all that the writer says....and McGrory nailed it about what we had and what we've given up as a nation....

Patten’s Berry Farm is the kind of place a Hollywood producer would want to invent if it didn’t already exist, with Mrs. Patten selling corn, apples, and pumpkins on the side of a country road in this impossibly pretty town.

Newspaper sues government to reveal 'secret' Patriot Act interpretation...

After a series of Freedom of Information requests were declined to reveal the classified interpretation of the Patriot Act — a description that Senators Ron Wyden (D-Oregon) and Mark Udall (D-Colorado) described as “deeply disturbing” — the newspaper sought to battle it out in the courts.

Is U.S. ready for second black leader? Yes...key word here - LEADER!

Liberals tolerate blacks and they endure conservatives. But they cannot abide a successful, independent-minded black who dares to step out of line and reject the enslavement of the Plantation Party.

State Dept Considering 5,662 'Diversity Visa' Applicants from Terror States....

Swell....................

The annual program randomly awards 50,000 permanent resident visas to people from countries with low rates of immigration to the United States, which include the State Sponsors of Terrorism. The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) congressionally mandates the Diversity Visa program, which began in 1994.

Issa Issues Subpoena To Holder In Fast And Furious Investigation...

Rep. Darrell Issa, chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, sent a subpoena Wednesday to Attorney General Eric Holder as part of his investigation into the gun trafficking operation known as "Fast and Furious."

Green Job Cost Nightmare.....

The green jobs subsidy story gets more embarrassing by the day. Three years ago President Obama promised that by the end of the decade America would have five million green jobs, but so far some $90 billion in government spending has delivered very few. A new report by the Labor Department's Office of Inspector General examined a $500 million grant under the stimulus program to the Employment and Training Administration to 'train and prepare individuals for careers in "green jobs."

Occupy L.A. Speaker: Violence will be Necessary to Achieve Our Goals

And they laughed at Glenn beck when he predicted this....

Citizen journalist Ringo captured this speaker at the Occupy Los Angeles camp a few days ago letting the cat out of the bag: After dismissing nonviolence as a dead end, he admits that for the Occupiers to achieve their goals, violence and bloodshed will be necessary:

Arrogant White Liberal Tells Herman Cain How to Be Black

This article is for my black brother, a community leader and little-league football coach who gets his news solely from the liberal mainstream media. Hopefully it will help him to understand why I, his big brother, am working with those white Tea Party people against his beloved black president.

This article is also for my black relatives who gave me a chilly reception at my grandmother's 100th birthday party. I learned through the family grapevine they resent my involvement in the Tea Party and consider me an embarrassment to the family.

Corruption in Maricopa County

When we think of political persecution, places such as Tiananmen Square may come to mind. Increasingly, however, this tool of tyranny is coming to our shores -- and it is not made in China. It is, in the case I'll discuss today, made in Maricopa County.

Why Did the Obama Administration Break News of the Iran Plot Today?

"Interesting Timing"....not to diminish the threat...just "Interesting Timing"....

First, I find the timing of the release interesting, to say the least, as Eric Holder is on the hot seat for his alleged role in the ATF’s “Fast and Furious” operation to supply arms to Mexican drug cartels.

Next, the administration has known about this Iranian plot for some time. Why would they come forward with these details of the Iranian plot to assassinate the Saudi Arabian ambassador on our soil without first preparing an announcement of the U.S.’s response to Iran?

Feds Claimed SunPower’s $1.2 Billion Federal Loan Would Create ‘10-15′ Permanent Jobs...

Unlike Solyndra, which went bankrupt after receiving the loan from the government leaving taxpayer on the hook, SunPower’s deal is more complicated. Many questions are being raised about how the company was able to obtain the loan and what they did after they got the money. Questions include:

White House lawyers who drafted secret Awlaki kill memo were critics of Bush’s war powers...funny, ey?

Not the first time that the left’s anti-war legal heroes have morphed from civil libertarians when Bush was in office to war-power expansionists once they went to work for The One. Remember when Harold Koh convinced Obama that he didn’t need to bother with congressional authorization after all if he wanted to wage war in Libya? Good times.

Sawyer's Flub: Claims Wall Street Protests Have ‘Spread to More Than a Thousand Countries’ ....

Kinda like Obama's 57 States.....

So enthused about promoting the far-left protests, ABC anchor Diane Sawyer on Monday night's World News championed “the Occupy Wall Street movement” by ludicrously claiming that “as of tonight, it has spread to more than 250 American cities, more than a thousand countries -- every continent but Antarctica.”

Protests against the wealthy in “thousands of countries,” including Cuba, China and every country in Africa? Per the U.S. State Department, however, there are only 195 nation states in the world, so Sawyer imagined five times as many protests as could possibly have occurred. (Video below)

Millionaire Tax: Yet Another Job Killing Tax Increase

Like the villain in a horror movie, the many-lived millionaire tax is once again back from the dead. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D–NV) dusted off this economically frightening tax hike that has repeatedly failed to pass Congress to pay for President Obama’s jobs plan (American Jobs Act of 2011, S. 1660) after Senate Democrats rejected the tax hikes the President proposed to pay for his bill.

Obama Jobs Council Stacked With Democratic Donors...and we're surprised???....NOT!

The group of private-sector business leaders advising President Obama on how to create jobs and grow the economy is full of deep-pocket Democratic donors and high-profile financiers of Obama’s re-election campaign, a review of Federal Election Commission data shows.

Obama to push Congress on parts of jobs plan:after Dems Kill it...

Obama had barnstormed around the country to pressure his Republican opponents to back his top legislative priority, but he did not pick up a single Republican vote in the Democratic-controlled Senate.

Two Democrats, facing re-election in conservative states, also voted against the measure.

Obama said earlier on Tuesday he would try to pass components of the bill individually.

Michelle Obama 's warning to gun owners....

Important read for gun owners.....

This was music to the ears of the small, affluent crowd of admirers who cheered and applauded. But to gun owners, Michelle Obama’s remarks should sound like a warning bell, alerting us to the danger ahead should Barack Obama win re-election and get the opportunity to alter the current make-up of the Supreme Court.

When Americans flock to the polls in 13 months, we will not simply decide which direction our country should take over the next four years. Rather, we will decide whether or not our fundamental, individual right to keep and bear arms will survive over the next several decades.

‘Keep the Change’: Hank Williams Jr. Unleashes Fiery New Anthem...GOOD ONE!!!!

Days after being dropped from ESPN’s “Monday Night Football,” Hank Williams Jr. fired back at that network, “Fox and Friends” and what he called the “United Socialist States of America” in his signature style — a song bellowing biting lyrics in between guitar licks.

Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky Marching With Occupy Chicago Protesters....

We don't deserve to keep all our OWN money....

Dem. Rep. Jan Schakowsky (Illinois) recently said you don’t deserve to keep all your money, and now she’s joining the protests against people who have a lot of it.

Blogger Rebel Pundit caught the congresswoman marching with the protesters on Monday after she delivered a speech to protesters outside a local Hyatt Regency (more on that later). Below is video of her marching as well as Rebel Pundit asking a few questions about the American flag:

Romney for panderer-in-chief? ....

Memo to the Rick Perry campaign: If your guy can't win an exchange with Mitt Flippin' Romney over who's stuck to principle more consistently, his debating skills need serious work.

That's what happened at Sept. 22's Republican debate in Orlando. After deflating Perry with a "nice try," Romney brazenly proclaimed, "One reason to elect me is that I know what I stand for, I've written it down. Words have meaning."

Paula Deen: Michelle Obama likes fried food too...

"Let them eat cake" Michele Obama......Literally!

"Well, I did a show with Michelle and I just loved being with her," Deen told Yeas & Nays. "She probably ate more than any other guest I've ever had on the show —she kept eating even during commercials." Deen taught Obama how to fry shrimp during a TV segment in September before the 2008 presidential election. "You know what their favorite foods are — it's hot wings, you know, those kinds of foods that are not necessarily top-of-the-list healthy foods, so she's no different than the rest of us," Deen said. "We love those kinds of foods, we just know that we can't eat them everyday."

Orlando Unveils Barack Obama Parkway...

Mile and one half costs $10.5 Million dollars..............

On the same day President Barack Obama will visit Orlando, the city unveiled the first part of a roadway project named after him.

Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer attended a ribbon-cutting ceremony that showcased President Barack Obama Parkway, near the Mall at Millenia.

Wall Street to Shed 10,000 Jobs...

So...."Occupy Wall Street" happy now....?

New York City’s securities industry could lose nearly 10,000 jobs by the end of 2012, according to a report by New York state’s comptroller Thomas DiNapoli, the Wall Street Journal said.

In a report due for release on Tuesday DiNapoli also said bonuses were likely to shrink this year, reflecting lower profits on Wall Street, the WSJ reported.

D.C. Protesters: 'Freedom Plaza Is Now Ours, And We're Never Giving It Back' ....

Now...imagine this was a Tea Party demonstration....

When protesters refused to leave Freedom Plaza in downtown Washington on Monday after their permit expired, the U.S. Park Police extended that permit for another four months.

"Freedom Plaza is now ours, and we're never giving it back," said a protest organizer at the October2011 website: "We have not said that when the four months are over and the American Spring is here we will leave."

SunPower: Twice As Bad As Solyndra, Twice As Bad For Obama ...Surprised?! NOT!

The company, SunPower (SPWR-NASDAQ), now carries $820 million in debt, an amount $20 million greater than its market capitalization. If SunPower was a bank, the feds would shut it down. Instead, it received a lifeline twice the size of the money sent down the Solyndra drain.

Two men with insight into the process are SunPower rooter Rep. George R. Miller III, (D.-Calif.), the senior Democrat on the House Education and Workforce Committee and the co-chairman of the Democratic Steering and Policy Committee, and his SunPower lobbyist son, George Miller IV.

Police arrest 100 in Occupy Boston sweep...

Rules followed? These folks have NO RULES! I've been part of Tea Party Rallies and the City of Boston has been INSANE to work with over permits etc! These guys.....I hear crickets chirping....

Defiant Occupy Boston protesters were arrested and charged with unlawful assembly and being in a public park after hours in a massive, early morning crackdown at the protest group’s second tent city on the Rose Kennedy Greenway.

“It’s important that we gain control and make sure the rules are followed, “ said Boston Police Commissioner Edward Davis, who was on site during the police action.

Wall Street Protesters Plan 'Millionaires March' To Tycoons' New York City Homes...

THIS is when playing Class Politics gets dangerous....

Protesters from the Occupy Wall Street movement plan to leave their downtown Manhattan headquarters Tuesday and head uptown as part of a "Millionaires March" visiting the homes of some of New York City's wealthiest residents.

Obama health-care law modeled on Romney plan ....

We've been trying to WARN YOU ALL for months about Romney. Romneycare is a NIGHTMARE! I know...I live it both as a Massachusetts citizen and small business owner!

Newly obtained White House records provide fresh details on how senior Obama administration officials used Mitt Romney’s landmark health-care law in Massachusetts as a model for the new federal law, including recruiting some of Romney’s own health care advisers and experts to help craft the act now derided by Republicans as “Obamacare.”

The Gallery of 'Bush = Hitler' Allusions

Nice way to put Hank Williams Jr. in context...by the by. Madonna is singing at the Superbowl...she likens GWB to Hitler on stage....how's THAT not in the same catagory as Hank? Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm???

A quick note, first, about what counts as a "Bush = Hitler" allusion for these purposes. Obviously, someone saying "that George Bush guy is just like Hitler" counts.

ESPN Panel With Zirin and Finebaum Gets in Heated Debate Over Hank Williams...

This is actually pretty damn funny!

A heated debate erupted on ESPN’s show “Outside the Lines” on Thursday during a long segment devoted to whether or not ESPN should have parted ways with Hank Williams Jr. after he made a Hitler analogy earlier in the week.

Things started off fairly benign, but by the end voices were being raised and guests were arguing about the, well, Civil War. This might take some explaining. Hang with me.

Why Can't Obama Be Like Tito?

Tito Francona was always class....he is rare in this world.

In a remarkable interview on sports talk radio in Boston this week, Terry Francona (Tito), the departing manager of the Boston Red Sox major league baseball team, admitted that he failed and discussed why he walked away. President Obama could learn a moral lesson or two from a man who took responsibility for a horrible situation not entirely of his own making. Francona refused to blame anyone else, even when the blame could have been shifted or at least shared.

Obama's job creation panel features job cutting execs...and we're surprised...why?

I'm sure there's a solid reason why a biologist should be on a jobs panel, but it's not coming to me at the moment.

It doesn't matter. The business execs are pretty clueless about creating jobs, otherwise they would have done so. Instead, a lot of them cut their workforces in response to the horrible Obama economy.

A History Lesson for Lawrence O'Donnell

On Thursday night, MSNBC host Lawrence O'Donnell accused Herman Cain of "sitting on the sidelines" during the civil rights movement. The accusation has rightly been condemned as contemptible. Politics is one sphere of human achievement, but there are many others. Do we fault Albert Einstein for not going back to Germany in 1933 to march in anti-Hitler demonstrations?

Why America Needs Herman Cain

Niccol�Machiavelli once said that "the man who adapts his course of action to the nature of the times will succeed, and likewise, the man who sets his course of action out of tune with the times will come to grief."

What I'd like to argue in this essay is that based on the current "nature of the times" in America, Herman Cain must be the GOP nominee for president.

Herman Cain steps up attacks on Occupy Wall Street protests...

Amen...............

Republican presidential contender Herman Cain amplified his criticism Sunday of the growing Occupy Wall Street movement, calling the protesters “jealous’ Americans who "play the victim card” and want to “take somebody else’s” Cadillac.

Fast and Furious weapons found in Mexico cartel enforcer's home ...

Reporting from Washington—
High-powered assault weapons illegally purchased under the ATF's Fast and Furious program in Phoenix ended up in a home belonging to the purported top Sinaloa cartel enforcer in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, whose organization was terrorizing that city with the worst violence in the Mexican drug wars.
