Excitable Andy was raised in a barn

I didn't think anyone suffered Palin Derangement Syndrome as much as Keithy Slobberman, but Excitable Andy proves me wrong.

10.49 pm. Piper is poking Trig in the eye!

Would someone please emain the nitwit and tell him we all say Piper smoothing down Trig's hair?
10.40 pm. We've just seen a picture of a seven year old cradling and stroking the hair of a Down Syndrome infant. This, apparently, is relevant to deciding who should be the next vice-president of the United States.

Excitable Andy should take that up with whomever was in the control box directing the cameras. Unless he thinks Sarah was moving the cameras with her terrible telekinetic powers.
10.39 pm. I'm just slack-jawed that, so far, the entire speech has been basically about her family. She seems as if she just won a reality show and is introducing her folks. And they have passed the baby now to four different people - including another child. Slack-jawed.

Take that last and couple it with this just under it, under the title "Parading the Baby"
Did I just see Cindy holding Trig? I mean: can we have it one way or the other? Either the family is out of bounds or it is in the spotlight. Brandishing a Down Syndrome child as a campaign statement is daring the press to ask questions about him. And if you are going to hold the baby in front of the cameras, how can you say that the details of his birth cannot even be discussed?

Excitable Andy doesn't have much exposure to families. And I guess babies might make him feel a bit squeamish, seeing how they are made. But I know from my own brood and loads of friends with medium to large families that the kids go everywhere with . When we all gather for important stuff - graduations, weddings, holidays, the babies are there too.

And everyone wants to hold the babies! Babies are always getting passed around among aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents, friends. It's just something done among the wild denizens of life outside of Manhattan Penthouses.

Or maybe Excitable Andy is just old-fashioned and believes such an embarrassment of a Mongoloid creature should be locked away in the attic.

Now I recall, during the Democrat "You are all VICTIMS" telethon, Obama was on live via satellite, talking to his daughters in front of a huge audience.

Michelle Obama gave the headlining speech tonight at the Democratic Convention. Barack joined the crowd via satellite after she was finished and praised his wife. Obama's daughters were thrilled to see him, and frequently, and adorably, interrupted their father with shrieks of "Hi Daddy!". Obama also mentioned two different cities for his location, first saying "Hello from Kansas City," and then saying he watched the speech with a family in St. Louis. One of Obama's daughters corrected him, asking, "What city are you in, Daddy?"

Funny, but Excitable Andy has nothing to say about Obamas' "Parading the daughters." How about it, Andy? Why didn't you demand an examination of Michelle's vagina? Or question Barry's fitness as a father seeing as he is spending so much time away from them? Or maybe, not to say it is true or anything, but musing that maybe he's not with them that much and passing them off to other family members because he really isn't their father? How about demanding some DNA tests, just to put those rumors to rest?

How about it Excitable Andy? Where's that "true conservative" pluckishness and fair play?

WOW

Just. Wow.

Husband is not really into politics. So we sat and watched the speeches tonight together. Rudy rocked and Sarah brought down the house.

The Dems and their PR wing, the Lamestream Media, are only going to doubledown on the smear campaign; because they are scared. Sh*tless.

Obama's MSNBC 'reporter' left speechless

Republicans don't have to compete just the official Obama campaign, but they are also running against a transparently partisan Lamestream Media.

But in their hubris and Obamessiah worship, in their sexist efforts to destroy Gov. Sarah Palin, they interview the wrong guy:

heh.

Ok, we get it

When a child stumbles and makes a mistake, the parent obviously hasn't spent enough time at home. The parent is obviously UNFIT and unworthy to work outside the home and damned unfit to hold any elected office. I mean, look at how the Washington Post's first page is obsessed with the vaginas in the Palin family


click for larger image

Pretty impressive for a frontpage, eh? But you know what you won't find on the frontpage? About another parent now unfit for public office because of the mistake of their offspring? Tucked away on page nine is this

A son and a brother of Sen. Joseph R. Biden Jr. (D-Del.) are accused in two lawsuits of defrauding a former business partner and an investor of millions of dollars in a hedge fund deal that went sour, court records show.
Oh, Joe! Where were you when your son should have been learning the proper values and morals? Didn't you ever tell him "thou shalt not steal"?

:::ahem::: didn't Obama vet Biden?

Bristol Palin pregnant: Left nutroots to go to eleven

Because, not only is Bristol Palin pregnant, but she is going to keep the baby and marry the father.

ST. PAUL (Reuters) - The 17-year-old daughter of Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin is pregnant, Palin said on Monday in an announcement intended to knock down rumors by liberal bloggers that Palin faked her own pregnancy to cover up for her child.Bristol Palin, one of Alaska Gov. Palin's five children with her husband, Todd, is about five months pregnant and is going to keep the child and marry the father, the Palins said in a statement released by the campaign of Republican presidential candidate John McCain.

Bristol Palin made the decision on her own to keep the baby, McCain aides said.

"We have been blessed with five wonderful children who we love with all our heart and mean everything to us," the Palins' statement said.

"Our beautiful daughter Bristol came to us with news that as parents we knew would make her grow up faster than we had ever planned. As Bristol faces the responsibilities of adulthood, she knows she has our unconditional love and support," the Palins said.

The Palins asked the news media to respect the young couple's privacy.

"Bristol and the young man she will marry are going to realize very quickly the difficulties of raising a child, which is why they will have the love and support of our entire family. We ask the media, respect our daughter and Levi's privacy as has always been the tradition of children of candidates," the statement concluded.


What a class act.

Countdown to Left meltdown in 3...2...1

Fake-feminist (aka Vagina Warriors) one-note harangue

Oh, color me surprised that the crones at N.O.W. come out with a cuntilicious denouncement of Gov. Sarah Palin

Sadly, she is a woman who opposes women's rights, just like John McCain. [...]

The fact that Palin is a mother of five who has a 4-month-old baby, a woman who is juggling work and family responsibilities, will speak to many women. But will Palin speak FOR women? Based on her record and her stated positions, the answer is clearly No. [...]

We recognize the importance of having women's rights supporters at every level but, like Sarah Palin, not every woman supports women's rights.


See, to be an authentic womyn, there will be no speaking Truth to Power, when that Power is held by radical "proggressive" females, self-annointed to define Womyn Rights. Unironically, those "rights" are really just one "right": the "right" of womyn, of any age, to kill their unborn child at any time during the pregnancy for any reason, to force someone to do the deed and to force someone other than the womyn to pay for it. Deviate from template and N.O.W. wants to Kelo your vulva.

Palin is a colluder. Forget Palin's unprivileged upbringing, forget that , unlike Hillary, she earned her elected offices on her own, not because of her husband. Forget that, unlike Obama, she earned her office bucking the machine, not joining it. Sarah Palin is pro-life, and that makes her AGAINST WOMYNs!!1!1!

I'm tired of fake-feminists. Females who claim they want "equality" but in actuality demand female supremacy. From free abortions to free contraception to a different set of law and punishment where it concerns "Violence against Women" (as if a woman raped is hurt more than when a man is raped), these are females less interested in equal opportunity than in superior outcomes. No where is this more evident then in the hysterical reaction to Gov. Sarah Palin. Gov. Palin is rancid to the core. Even in a rather thoughtful self-confessional to sexist attacks against Palin, there is measure of "well, she deserves it" because Palin is "full of support for policy positions that hurt ordinary Americans", while perpetuating the "She's a creationist!" lie. Palin doesn't have beliefs, she has "adopt[ed] political positions".

And in the end, for Leftists and the Female Supremacist wing, that is the essense of their view of The Other. The dissenters, the disagreers, the people, male and female, who look to their own lives, talents, wants, needs and figure out their own choices, don't do so from any real belief system. "Belief systems" belong to the Left. Non-leftists "adopt political world views" for cynical or nefarious motives. If non-leftists choose to engage in any activity, or hold any belief, that doesn't conform to Left cult ideology, that belief or activity isn't mistaken, the person holding it is illegitimate and deserves no consideration of good faith argument or good motives.

Even believing that capitalism is the best system of economic opportunity brands one as a supporter of the"myths of individuality and freedom" and No Real Feminist(tm) supports ....

Well, fill in that last with whatever unexamined "want" translated into "right" that the juvenile Left is peddling today. It gets tiring that the adults in the room make their tinny squawkings possible and we just get pissed on for the effort.

Palin and Foreign Policy

Gov Palin has been in the very unique position of having her state in kissing proximity with Russia.

You all remember Russia, right? Raper of Georgia, who has just annexed So. Ossetia on its way to re-Sovietize the region?

Well, leaving aside the hysterical Obamabots and Vagina Warriors who are busy with their lame attempts to paint Gov. Palin as a white-trash bimbo (say hello to Feministe, Pandagon, et al), adults actually interested in facts should consider this

Alaska is the first line of defense in our missile interceptor defense system. The 49th Missile Defense Battalion of the Alaska National Guard is the unit that protects the entire nation from ballistic missile attacks. It’s on permanent active duty, unlike other Guard units.

As governor of Alaska, Palin is briefed on highly classified military issues, homeland security, and counterterrorism. Her exposure to classified material may rival even Biden's.

She's also the commander in chief of the Alaska State Defense Force (ASDF), a federally recognized militia incorporated into Homeland Security's counterterrorism plans.

Palin is privy to military and intelligence secrets that are vital to the entire country's defense. Given Alaska's proximity to Russia, she may have security clearances we don't even know about.

According to the Washington Post, she first met with McCain in February, but nobody ever found out. This is a woman used to keeping secrets.

She can be entrusted with our national security, because she already is.

Indeed.

Trooper-gate? Eh.

Congratulations to MataHarley at Flopping Aces doing the yeoman's job of gathering the full story behind the slanderous charge that Gov. Palin has "abused her power" in regards to her ex-brother-in-law.

Now, let me suggest a bumpersticker for the Obamabots and Vagina Warriors wanting to continue with that tact:

What can Palin claim that Hillary can't?

The usual Vagina Warriors (to link just two examples of this wing of Left cultism) are absolutely apoplectic over Govenor Palin's selection as VP nominee. After blasting her as a "woman-hating woman" and attempting to float the meme that this is "proof" Rethuglicans (when they aren't starving seniors and children) are insulting voters.

Leave aside for a moment that Gov. Palin has more executive experience than either Obama or Biden, let's compare the governor's Real Woman bona fides with Hillary Clinton.

However one defines Sen. Clinton's stint in office, she wouldn't be there if she hadn't married Bill. Hillary got her job because of her husband.

Governor Sarah Palin got her job the old fashioned, traditional feminist way, she earned it. She didn't even need to pull a stunt to have every other candidate tossed off the ballot like some community organizer with aspirations to the Presidency did.

It's PALIN!!!

Holy crap, that's going to hurt the Obama camp.

According to a Republican strategist, Palin is the nominee, though McCain's campaign has not comfirmed this.

With an announcement scheduled in Dayton, Ohio, an associate of Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty said the governor had been informed he is not McCain's pick.

Democrats' God Problem

It's not just Queen Nan who snarls at Catholic Bishops and Cardinals that She is, Herself, a better expert than they in Catholic catechism or Rev. Wright's hate-talk pays better than gospel. Democrats who usually eschew God as the some white patriarchal dude out to interfere with their fun now worship Obama in some really creepy videos

Image created from 'My American Prayer' - Celebrities openly worship Obama

And this is the ground
That keeps our feet from getting wet
And this is the sky over our head
And what you see depends on where you stand
And how you jump will tell you where you're gonna land.

American Prayer
American Prayer

My oh my
Couldn't get much higher
Lets not kick out the darkness
Make the light brighter

Yeah. Sure. Uh huh.

Then there is how Donald Miller gave the benediction last Monday night at the Democrat Convention:

Give those in this room who have power, along with those who will meet next week, the courage to work together to finally provide health care to those who don’t have any, and a living wage so families can thrive rather than struggle.

Hep (sic) us figure out how to pay teachers what they deserve and give children an equal opportunity to get a college education.

Help us figure out the balance between economic opportunity and corporate gluttony.


A prayer to enact specific Democrat legislation. Being non-clergy, I guess Miller skipped Exodus 20:7.

Democrats have no use for a God they don't define and control.

Fascist Democrat America

Ah, the sweet sweet appetizer of the coming Obamerica!

ABC reporter Asa Eslocker arrested for photographing Democrats from a public sidewalk.

Screenshot above from video here. Story here.

Video taken at the scene shows a man, wearing the uniform of a Boulder County sheriff, ordering Eslocker off the sidewalk in front of the hotel, to the side of the entrance.

The sheriff's officer is seen telling Eslocker the sidewalk is owned by the hotel. Later he is seen pushing Eslocker off the sidewalk into oncoming traffic, forcing him to the other side of the street. [...]

During the arrest, one of the officers can be heard saying to Eslocker, "You're lucky I didn't knock the f..k out of you."

Eslocker was released late today after posting $500 bond.


I work with cops. I have a great deal of respect for cops. But this was beyond the pale. This was cops acking as paid thugs for the DNC to keep embarrassing pictures from the press. What fool believes a public sidewalk is owned by a private hotel?

Those so-called Denver cops should be immediately suspended and the DNC should be held accountable.

Paging Mr. Bergeron, Mr. Harrison Bergeron ...

In today's example of the true moral cowardice that is the foundation of Left cult "egalitarianism", a nine-year-old boy is barred from his Youth Baseball League for being too good

Nine-year-old Jericho Scott is a good baseball player -- too good, it turns out.

The right-hander has a fastball that tops out at about 40 mph. He throws so hard that the Youth Baseball League of New Haven told his coach that the boy could not pitch any more. When Jericho took the mound anyway last week, the opposing team forfeited the game, packed its gear and left, his coach said.

Officials for the three-year-old league, which has eight teams and about 100 players, said they will disband Jericho's team, redistributing its players among other squads, and offered to refund $50 sign-up fees to anyone who asks for it. [...]

Jericho's coach and parents say the boy is being unfairly targeted because he turned down an invitation to join the defending league champion, which is sponsored by an employer of one of the league's administrators. [...]

Local attorney John Williams was planning to meet with Jericho's parents Monday to discuss legal options.

"You don't have to be learned in the law to know in your heart that it's wrong," he said. "Now you have to be punished because you excel at something?"


Yes, Mr. Williams, in Barack and Michelle's America, you do.

Things that chap my ass: Hillary and the Shrillbots

If one trolls the Vagina Warrior sites and sees the phrases "Bush administration is jeopardizing women’s health by putting their ideology first". or "... regulations are the offense, blatantly threatening our reproductive freedoms." be assured there is probably more to the story. Especially when defeated, humiliated Hillary! needs to find a way back into the news cycle

The regulations now published by HHS raise serious concerns about women's access to family planning services. [...]

We've had enough of putting ideology over science and failed policies harming healthy families.


Oh, isn't that cute? "Ideology over science".

Would somebody tell me when abortion at any stage of fetal development is now suddenly unassailable under the magic label of "science"?

Not that radical feminists, berift of tolerance for anything outside of their ideology, would look beyond the shrieking hysteria and truncated reports from their fellow children in lamestream media

There is also deep concern that the rule could have far-reaching, but less obvious, implications. Because of its wide scope and because it would -- apparently for the first time -- define abortion in a federal regulation as anything that affects a fertilized egg, the regulation could raise questions about a broad spectrum of scientific research and care, critics say.

Not that Vagina Warriors and ilk would actually sit down and read the fucking draft in the first place.

What does one learn reading the 42 page document? I mean, besides the fact that bureaucratise is better than Lunestra for any getting-to-sleep issues?

1. There is nothing "new" in the regulation. It is, in fact, a kind of centralizing of already existing statutes and acts pertaining to the right of health care workers and institutions not to be forced to perform or participate in abortions.

2. What is actually "new" is complaince benchmarks so that any entity receiving federal funds is not only aware of existing statutes/regulations, but must certify their compliance and make it known to others within their organization of their rights.

Now, pay attention to this, because this is not being covered by Lamestream or Vagina Warriors or Hillary! This is from the document itself:

(c) Entities to whom this subsection 88.4(c) applies shall not:
(1) discriminate against any physician or other health care professional in the employment, promotion, termination, or extension of staff or other privileges because he performed or assisted in the performance, or refused to perform or assist in the performance of a lawful sterilization procedure or abortion on the grounds that doing so would be contrary to his religious beliefs or moral convictions, or because of his religious beliefs or moral convictions concerning abortions or sterilization procedures themselves;

(2) discriminate against or deny admission to any applicant for training or study because of reluctance or willingness to counsel, suggest, recommend, assist, or in any way participate in the performance of abortions or sterilizations contrary to or consistent with the applicant’s religious beliefs or moral convictions.


Read that again. Let it sink in. The regulation the Vagina Warriors are rending their organic, carbon-footprint reduced, commune-produced, blouses over protects both people who object to abortions and PEOPLE WHO SUPPORT ABORTIONS from discrimination.

Maybe I should break it down for the "let's fuck but hell I want my neighbor to pay for my pills/foam/abortion" anti-women, anti-responsibility, puerile females out there -- A HOSIPITAL CANNOT FORCE A DOCTOR OR NURSE TO PERFORM AN ABORTION AND A HOSPITAL CANNOT FIRE A DOCTOR OR NURSE FOR PERFORMING AN ABORTION if they receive federal funds.

Any lurking self-identified rad-feminists still unclear on this? Listen up, cunts.

Let me give you an analogy (and you might go look up what that means, considering y'all have a hard time with anything outside of your ten-index card points of left dogma)

I'm pro-capital punishment. Capital punishment is legal. But I would not demand that doctors/nurses/technicians/pharmacists be forced BY LAW to participate in executions if they have a conscience moral objection.

Got it twatwaffles? It is clear?

That's what happens when a "right of opportunity" transmorgrifies into a "right to an object/service". Suddenly the assholes in the audience think the Constitution gives 'em a blank check on the labor of another.

Obama's layers of stupidity -- the 'I'm in awe of it' edition

Last week my 13 y/o stepson (at that wonderous age where they know, know, exactly everything about anything) decided to tell his dad (my husband) he had the solution to high gas prices at the pump -- have the government take over the oil companies and pass a law lowering the prices. Husband blinked a couple of times, then said "I suggest you go read an econ book and get back to me."

Now, we tolerate such stuff from 13 year olds, it kinda comes with the territory of herding teens toward adulthood.

How do we explain Obama?

Transcribed:

Everybody’s watching what’s going on in Beijing right now, at the Olympics. Think about the amount of money China has spent on infrastructure. Their ports, their trains systems, their airports are vastly superior to us now which means if you’re a corporation deciding where to do business you’re starting to thing “Beijing looks like a pretty good option.” Why aren't we doing the same thing?

Heh.
