GO PACKERS!!!!

Barack Hussein Obama is promising he'll be at the Super Bowl if the Chicago Bears make it in.

WTF! Will this guy get to work already?
King Obama is not trying to cure this nation's ills. This piece of shit is too busy playing golf and jetting around the globe on vacation with his bitch-ass wife!

... and just think of the monumental expense this would create trying to ensure the security of this douchebag at such a large public venue. furthermore, he'd probably bring along a huge entourage thus depriving real fans of the coveted tickets.
This guy has such a workload on his plate that he should be too freakin' busy to even watch the game on TV!
This clown and his self-divining ruling-class ilk must be sent packing!

On a final Superbowl note, Let's Go J-E-T-S!!!!

Just Admit it, Newspapers: You're Scared of Muslims


As Radley Balko noted in yesterday's Morning Links, the Washington Post and other newspapers pulled Wiley Miller's syndicated "Non Sequitur" cartoon from their comics pages two Sundays back, because Miller pulled a familiar-to-Reason-readers "where's Waldo?" gag with the Prophet Muhammad, satirizing the new 21st century taboo on the depiction of even jokes about the fear of depicting a historical figure who really existed.

As is typical of the genre, Washington Post editors tried to play their own "where's Waldo" with the censorship process:

Style editor Ned Martel said he decided to yank it, after conferring with others, including Executive Editor Marcus W. Brauchli, because "it seemed a deliberate provocation without a clear message." He added that "the point of the joke was not immediately clear" and that readers might think that Muhammad was somewhere in the drawing.

If the Post's new standard for comics is to make jokes "immediately clear," then it might be time to kill the comics page altogether. No, Martel/Brauchli, you pulled the cartoon because your fear of Muslims outweighs your commitment to free expression, period.

Now comes L.A. Times media critic James Rainey, who, even while concluding that the cartoon should have run (the L.A. Times, to no one's surprise, suppressed it), makes sure we understand that fear was not a factor, nosiree:

That's not to agree with some commentators who have called the refusal to run the comic a cowardly retreat from radicals. I'd say the ax that fell on "Non Sequitur" had more to do expediency. Moving in a hurry, with many other decisions that seemed more pressing at the time, editors probably killed the item rather than face the possibility of a furor for a piece they honestly felt was not of high quality.

Uh-huh. This is really how these gut-checks work. A boundary-stretching case comes before you, and suddenly everyone's an art critic. (Rainey: "I didn't find the panel especially powerful or witty.") I'll never forget how many people reacted to the fatwa against Salman Rushdie by saying that, the thing is, Satanic Verses really isn't a very good book, and it's understandable that Muslims would take offense, etc. Faced with the fear of being blamed for (or the target of) a mysterious cartoon dog whistle that sends 1 billion of the planet's humans into a homicide-bombing frenzy, editors bring to the table levels of scrutiny literally never used on the media in question. As is underlined by Rainey's own reporting:

[Boston Globe] Deputy managing editor Christine Chinlund said via e-mail: "When a cartoon takes on a sensitive subject, especially religion, it has an obligation to be clear. The 'Where's Muhammad' cartoon did not meet that test. It leaves the reader searching for clues, staring at a busy drawing, trying to discern a likeness, wondering if the outhouse at the top of the drawing is significant — in other words, perplexed."

Said Alice Short, an L.A. Times assistant managing editor: "If they had produced a 'Non Sequitur' cartoon that said 'Where's Jesus?' I probably wouldn't have wanted to run that either."

Is that the least believable media quote of 2010? Why yes, I think it is. This exchange at the end of the piece gets closer to the matter:

At the Austin (Texas) American-Statesman a senior editor named Drew Marcks told me when I asked about the cartoon, "I'd rather not talk about it."

I pressed. He hung up.

Advice for my newspaper friends: Listen to Penn Jillette. "[W]e haven't tackled Islam because we have families," he says. "[A]nd I think the worst thing you can say about a group in a free society is that you're afraid to talk about it." There, that wasn't very hard, was it?

I wrote about trying to convince the L.A. Times to reprint Danish cartoons of Muhammad in this piece from May.

Public Housing

The problem with public housing is that the residents are not the owners. The people that live in the house did not earn the house, but were loaned the property from the true owners, the taxpayers. Because of this, the residents do not have the "pride of ownership" that comes with the hard work necessary. In fact, the opposite happens and the residents resent their benefactors because the very house is a constant reminder that they themselves did not earn the right to live in the house. They do not appreciate the value of the property and see no need to maintain or respect it in any way.

The result is the same whether you are talking about a studio apartment or a magnificent mansion full of priceless antiques. If the people who live there do not feel they earned the privilege, they will make this known through their actions. The picture below illustrates the point…




The Resolute Desk was built from the timbers of the HMS Resolute and was a gift from Queen Victoria to President Rutherford B. Hayes. It is considered a national treasure and icon of the presidency.

Mr. Obama, get your @#$% feet off our desk! As a matter of fact, get the hell out of the peoples house and take your arrogant staff with you.

"It's like JFK doing Hollywood Squares during the Cuban Missile Crisis..."

"We're about to go to war with Iran, the economy is in the toilet, we have an illegal immigration problem sweeping the country, and Barak Obama is going to sit down with 3 comediennes and a castoff from Survivor and talk about the color of the towels in the guest bathroom of the oval office..."

I'm just sayin'....

...that all we really need the government for is to maintain the damn roads and to protect the freakin' borders.

I believe that maybe the U.S. should regain its superpower status through conquest and world domination.
It's Empire time baby!!!

...as for our current political "ruling class", heat the tar and gather the feathers.

R or D, left or right vote them all out.



Why does Obama hate America??


I need a drink... and a shower.

Your tax dollars at work making a mockery of our laws

DHS has gone insane. Now they're setting up Residence Inns for detained illegals: Free internet/email, "unmonitored" phones, cooking, art and dance classes, bingo, "cut flowers", carrot sticks, "non-penal attire".
(via HOUSTON CHRONICLE)
Couldn't they at least call it a NON-Residence Inn?
Our veterans should be treated so good.
I'll let Bob elaborate:





Gitmo detainees are also being coddled (The military at one point spent $125,000 on baklava for the terrorists to enjoy each night during Ramadan.)
We, the people are paying for these things! We pay for them to have all the luxuries most middle class American's can't even afford.

Wake up America!!! we are letting a radical minority control our country...its time to take a stand and take our country back.

Obama's Secret Power Grabs

Obama has a pattern of sidestepping Congress that will only get worse in the aftermath of the health care fight and the pending financial “reform” legislation. For a full explanation of all of these threats as well as action items on how to stop them, please check out the interactive version of the chart on www.ObamaChart.com.

"Healthstapo"?

Remember before the election when Obama said we need to have a civil defense corps as well funded and as well armed as the armed services?

Obamacare prescription: 'Emergency health army'

The Religion Of Peace Strikes Again

or is it "Religion of Pieces"?

Scores hacked to death in Nigerian sectarian clash
"They came around three o'clock in the morning and started shooting into the air. The shooting was meant to bring people from their houses and then, when people came out, they started cutting them with machetes."

No More Parades

It's NOT that YOU don't pay enough taxes. It's that the government wastes the money that YOU give them!!!
THIS is why this country is BROKE.



... and speaking of wasted $$$, the government just pissed away another one billion dollars of YOUR MONEY on a new state of the art embassy in London. At least it has a moat.

the government is using our tax money, to count people (who may, or may not be Americans) in order to give out MORE of our tax money.

while we see hundreds of stories about backlash to the Tim Tebow Super bowl commercial.
I see barely any talk of the 2.5 million dollars the government spent of taxpayer money on a 2010 Census Super Bowl commercial.
