San Fran Nan, Long Lost Cousin to Baghdad Bob, on Obama & The Dems' Health Care Bill: "There Has Never Been a More Open Process For Any Legislation"!


At the same time today, she rejects C-SPAN's request to be allowed to televise the Dems' back-room negotiations to reconcile differences between the House and Senate versions of the bill. Is there much more to be said here than what I've already said in this space about 1,000 times before? Let's see. "Never a more open process"? And right means wrong. And left means right. And I always tell the truth, even when I lie. And I am the spitting image of Brad Pitt. And my shit truly hasn't stunk in years. Really though. Just believe me. Yawn.

New Book: Warren Beatty Slept With 12,775 Women Over 35 Years. No Wonder Carly Simon Said He Was "So Vain"!

Post-Script: I was at first embarrassed to mention that I have no earthly idea what a "drive-by" means in the sexual context. So I was a bit relieved to see that the linked LA Times blog on Beatty's conquests also apparently asks the very same question ("If anyone can offer a good definition of what might constitute a Warren Beatty 'drive-by,' we'd love to hear it."). And also for the record, while I do believe that "daytime quickies" (as I understand that phrase) should be added to and included within the Beatty tally, there's no way that you include "casual gropings" or "stolen kisses" in any credible count of sexual activities. I wanted to make my position very clear on that point.

We Don't Need Stuff Like This. Obama Hung in Effigy in Georgia. Whether the Far Right or Far Left Is Responsible, I Hope the Perpetrator Burns in Hell

If you disagree with our president, as I most often do, then the same is to be expressed in words, thoughts and ideas. Not in hate. Not in violent-tinged actions or symbols. Now, those comments are of course based upon the presupposition that this was some right-wing freak who is responsible. The probabilities are that it was such a freak. At the same time, I didn't just fall off the proverbial turnip truck over here. I realize that something like this could always be the work of the far left, aiming to create a propaganda event in favor of their ilk. Such is the very concerning world and country in which we currently live. But regardless of which extreme's person is to blame, "I'd love to spit some Beechnut in that dude's eye," as one of my favorite old songs goes. I remain true to my view that we are ultimately a nation of free ideas, debate and conversation -- from which better leaders become elected and poor ones ultimately are retired to the private sector. That's America. And regardless of what anyone else might think, and regardless of how much the two extremes might try incessantly to change that dynamic, I think that essential core value of what makes us American ain't going away any time soon.

Are AFL-CIO Guy Steve Rosenthal & Other "Progressives" Complete Idiots? Or Are They Just Completely Blind? (Same Difference?)

The linked Politico.com story describes a difference of opinion in the dem party these days as to whether the party needs to move towards the center in 2010. Some dems, such as William Daley (Clinton's commerce secretary and brother of the Chicago mayor) have recently very plainly stated that if Washington dems continue their radical left crash-course during 2010, it will be disastrous for them in the 2010 elections (and beyond). To that, I say "duh" (do people still say that?). In other words, no ****, Sherlock. Make no mistake, absent Washington dems pulling a post-2004 Bill Clinton-type dash towards the middle, they will take big hits in 2010. (Unfortunately, most of those hits will be at the hands of republicans, although I continue to hold out hope for some viable third-party Independents to emerge in upcoming election cycles -- but I digress).
In the face of comments like those of Daley (which merely speaks obvious truths), you have "progressives" like the pictured Rosenthal claiming that staying the far left course is the only way for Washington dems to avoid losses in 2010 (see linked story). Talk about livin' in Bizarro world! So I return to my question above. Are these progressives idiots? Actually, I'm not going to say that. But I will say that they are so blinded by ideology that they eschew any talk of movement to the center even in the face of clear evidence that failing to do so will be distastrous for them in upcoming elections. Because the progressives basically control the dem party these days, I'll believe it when I see it as to any sudden move towards the center. Nope, I think they are going to continue their current course in 2010 of ram-rodding more unpopular ultra-far-left legislation right down our throats. They will suffer big losses in the 2010 elections, but by then just how much damage will have already been done? And how much of it will be reversible? I think that's precisely what the radical left progressives are banking on (regardless of whether or not they suffer big losses next year). As indicated above, these people may be a lot of things, but I don't think they're idiots.

Just in Time for New Year's: A Woman Blows a .708 BAC -- "Possibly a State Record"!

But that's perhaps not even the craziest part of this story. After her arrest and, obviously, her hospitalization, the woman bonds out of the hoosegaw and (allegedly) starts right back in with her antics: Two weeks later (allegedly), she boosts another stolen car, again gets wasted, again passes out behind the wheel, and the cops find her in the car in a ditch along the highway. This time, she's being held without bond. You gotta think this may be another first -- i.e. the first time ever that a person is held without bond for grand theft auto and drunk driving involving no injuries -- although you can certainly understand the reasons why.
By the way, there's no word in the story on whether this woman the second time around was able to top her prior record of .708. But stay tuned...

Obama's Reaction to the Attempted Xmas Terrorism: A Rant, A Criticism & A Defense...

OK, that bit of ragin' being said, I'll move on to thoughts on Obama's reaction to the events of this past Christmas day. First, the fact that Obama didn't personally speak to the issue until three days after the fact, frankly, doesn't bother me that much. The American right, predictably, is jumping off of curbs over this, but who cares. If this terror attempt had been pulled off successfully, then obviously I expect to hear from Obama that very day. But that wasn't the case here. I do have a problem with Obama's minions sending out the likes of Janet Napolitano to test the waters last weekend on such talking points as "the system worked" -- which was absurd on its face. So Obama can be fairly criticized on that point, but I really don't have a criticism based on the mere fact he didn't personally speak on the thwarted terror attempt for three days. Interestingly, it appears from what I've read today that W waited something like 7 or 8 days before personally speaking to the Shoe Bomber incident (and apparently received very little, if any, criticism for the same). Now that was probably too long, but I'm not going to rant and rave about 3 days.
(BTW, the radical left progressive website Huffington Post first brought to light today (as best as I can tell) the W-Shoe-Bomber-Delay point, which Politico.com has now also picked up on. For the Huffington Post, this is classic liberal/conservative "Yeah, but look what you guys did" rhetoric. It serves to change the subject and fails to address the merits and substance of the current criticism of your own side. It also serves as a tacit admission that the current criticisms are valid. Put another way, it implies a belief that "maybe we did something wrong, but YOU GUYS DID THE SAME THING." This is one of the favorite rhetorical tools of both the far right and far left, and I just laugh in their face every time they try to use it on me since I'm not one of "You Guys." That mindless crap just falls on deaf ears with me. But I digress.)
Second, we have Obama's reference today to AbdulMutallab as an "isolated extremist." At best, this was an incredibly stupid statement. But frankly, I don't give it even that much credit. This was just another example of the sort of sickening state of affairs that the terror issue has become in this country as a result of its complete politicalization. Obama was following the typical liberal playbook of trying to downplay any attempted terrorist act that occurs, even despite overwelming evidence of this slimeball's connections to members of Al Qaeda, most particularly the mass of such sub-human creatures currently conglomerated in Yemen. There was nothing "isolated" about this, and I fear (and am almost certain) that we're going to get hit very soon with more attempts using this same modus operandi (did I spell that correctly?). Obama may well have his reasons for using a blatantly false term like "isolated" (such as a desire to give these terrorists no credit or publicity besides that which is absolutely necessary), but regardless of such reasons and how noble they may well be, when our president speaks to us about such an important issue, he needs to speak plainly and speak the truth. Anyway, I've rambled on long enough! Those are my thoughts tonight.

"I Always Tell the Truth -- Even When I Lie!"


First Napolitano crowed that "the system worked" -- couched in weasel words about "once the incident occurred." That was her weekend statement. Everything's Rosey! Then Monday, she admitted that "the system failed miserably" in preventing the jihadist from boarding the plane with an explosive. At the same time, she completely insults all of our intelligence by claiming that she was just "taken out of context" over the weekend, because what she was saying is that "the system" actually worked wonderfully, but only "once the incident occurred." Funny that there was no mention over the weekend how it also "failed miserably" in the first place in permitting "the incident" to occur -- a fact she was forced to admit in the face of questioning today from NBC's Matt Lauer -- a democrat party hack who had to hate having to ask Napolitan about this.
Let's get down to brass tacks: Napolitano went out there this weekend trying to put a positive spin on an almost deadly situation. There was nothing "out of context" about that. Other Obama minions were out there trying to blame Bush for "the incident" (very predictably), which itself is utterly disingenuous on its face -- If the Bush era procedures in place were so awful, then why did the Obama regime fail to ever conduct any review and overhaul of those procedures upon his taking office a full disastrous year ago?
And a final point: You'll recall this Napolitano being good for at least one utterly moronic statement per day during the early days of the Obama regime (the first few months). There's been very little of that since, because quite frankly the Obama minions have wisely and artfully kept Big Jan under wraps, with a muzzle tightly in place. But that being said, it begs the question of Obama's decision in the first instance to appoint such an incompetent to this extremely critical post in our federal government. She should have been canned in March, but yet Obama allows her to hang around. And for obvious reasons, since her firing would reflect poorly on Obama's decision in the first place -- Nevermind that this Napolitano individual is incompetent and detrimental to the country in that she heads up a vital government agency tasked with keeping us all safe. I swear, the absolute lunacy of this Obama regime is rivaled only by that of the W regime. Folks, we deserve so much better as Americans than these types of assclowns. Let's insist upon it during upcoming election cycles.
Hey Dems: It Was a Large Majority of AMERICA Who Said NO to Your Health Care Bill!

First and most importantly, it was a clearcut majority of the American people who said NO to this bullshit bill, as reflected in every opinion poll out there leading up to the Senate dems' Black Christmas Ram-Rod Job.
Second, and as must as I equally distrust and dislike the republicans and the "conservatives" who control them, for dems to say or to imply that repubs had no ideas in this whole debate nor anything that they wanted to be a part of this bill would be like me claiming, say, that the earth is flat or that Mississippi shithouses are actually nice places to visit. In other words, it's a load of horse shit. Republicans had plenty of ideas in this debate (some of them good ones, such as a serious focus on medical malpractice tort reform), and they were completely ignored by the dem party for no other reason than the dems completely control washington and thus (they figure) don't have to listen to anyone, since they have the ability to ram-rod massive pieces of unpopular legislation right down our throats without any need to listen to anyone but themselves (i.e. the absolute Horror of either of these two parties completely controlling the White House and the Congress).
Folks, when dems (or republicans for that matter) use one of these oft-repeated little propaganda catch-phrases like "party of no" (repubs similarly like to use such phrases as "party of traditional values" to trumpet themselves) -- pay not one ounce of attention. It's bullshit aimed at the most ignorant, lowest common denominator type-person in our society (i.e. the sort of person who actually pays attention to and is persuaded by television political ads). Think for yourselves, for cryin' out loud! And never trust either one of these two parties any farther than you can throw 'em. A lifetime of keeping my eyes wide open has informed this viewpoint.

Politco.com: "Middle Ground Crumbles in Health Care Debate." Well, Nuts to That!

If the damn republicans would have rammed through some massive piece of conservative legislation under the same circumstances, I would feel exactly the same. Trust me, I ain't runnin' out to join those freaks either. As seen during the W years, they are almost or perhaps just as dangerous to the country (see the Iraq war, huge deficit spending, etc.) as the radical progressive-controlled dem party. Both of these two sides represent little swaths of the country and do not represent me or you in any way, shape or form. Just as the radical progressive-controlled democrat party can kiss my ass, so too can the "tea partiers," and the conservatives, and the whole damn republican party. I don't trust any of them. Tell me something, do you?
Those of us who (1) look at the issues independently and (2) have the desire to speak out about it, will continue to try to hound these two bullshit extremes and two bullshit parties to the edge of hell. If you folks thought I was ragin' in 2009, just wait til ya get a load of me in 2010. The passage of this bullshit health care bill has only energized me, only reinvigorated me, and only made me angrier. Should be a fun new year!!!

BLACK CHRISTMAS

"Bad Santa" Was "Packing Something More Than Gifts."

"I don't remember a Santa doing that," said the police. Great point. This guy threatens to give Santas everywhere a bad name. Although, the story does point out that this wasn't the first time a demented Santa has reared its ugly beard. The story says that criminals "mimicking Kris Kringle" have pulled bank jobs in the past, with the most infamous being "The Santa Claus Bank Robbery" of 1927 in which a fake Santa "and his crew" (elves? reindeer?) killed and injured several people in Texas.
Finally, the story encourages you -- if you have seen this Bad Santa -- to call Crime Stoppers. OK, I'll keep an eye out. No comment from the FBI on this whole situation, by the way.

Alabama Congressman Switches Parties, Goes Republican.

Representative Parker Griffith from Alabama announces today that he's switchin' from the dems to the republicans (link below). Which makes him a pathetic turncoat. I've expressed this many times in this space: If you chose to align yourself with either one of these two bullshit parties who represent minority swaths of the country, then at least have character enough to stick with your decision through thick and thin. If there is anything I detest more than a slimey partisan liberal or conservative, it's a turncoat. Colin Powell, a career turncoat himself, is probably the worst example. Arlen Specter right behind.

Never Before Have I Seen Such a Destructive & Un-Democratic Act in America As That Currently Being Perpetrated by Washington Dems.

Senate dems are moving toward a 9 p.m. Christmas Eve passage of the Harry Reid health care bill. Reid has just added a massive "manager's" amendment to the bill, which incorporates the various back-room deals (i.e. bribes and extortions) necessary for him to get 60 Senate dems to vote for his monstrosity of a health care "reform" bill. (The myriad problems and dangers of this bill were very well detailed today on the Wall Street Journal's editorial page (link below)). No one will have a chance to fully digest this amendment before the bill is voted upon Thursday night. Nope -- The dems are just gonna ram this gargantuan piece of legislation right down our throats. And it will likely be very close to what they give Obama to sign because too many subsequent changes, based on the House dems' version of this bill, will threaten to upset the apple cart (i.e. the 60 Senate ass-clowns, including Joe Lieberman, who support this piece of crap legislation).
Never before in American history has such a sweeping piece of legislation (which will seize one-seventh of the American economy) been enacted on a purely party-line vote with no bipartisanship whatsoever. Never before in American history has a bill this significant been jammed through and into law without virtually anyone who voted for it having had an opportunity to fully read and digest it first. Never before in American history has a bill this historical been snuck through on Sunday post-midnight procedural votes and Christmas Eve night passage votes in order to limit the publicity with respect to legislation that a majority of Americans opposes.
If you've taken a look at this space a time or two before, you'll know that I enjoy going off on both extremes and both parties. But I cannot recall an instance in my life previously where one particular act of one of these parties threatened to ensure that I will never be able to give that party any benefit of the doubt, any trust or any support ever again. The dems came very close when they ram-rodded the Cap'n Trade through the House earlier this year after adding 300 pages of new amendments to the bill earlier that morning. And I think that for me, the proverbial "last straw" probably falls right around Christmas Eve 2009.

More Chickenshit Stuff From Washington Dems.

Obama Threatens Dem Congressman: "Don't Think We're Not Keeping Score, Brother!" How Nice.


Reportedly, that was Obama's recent threat to dem congressman Peter DeFazio (see link below), who has bucked his fellow "progressives" on certain issues this year, such as the Cap'n Trade and "stimulus" bills. In other words, toe the party line, regardless of what you might think about a particular piece of legislation, or there will be real political consequences for you. So very nice, so very Presidential, so very intellectual, and, apparently, so very Obama. BTW, Obama, just because you're the first true liberal to be elected president since LBJ, and just because your White House has shown a certain propensity to act in ways in which the Nixon White House acted, that doesn't mean you have to go around acting like those two all the time. Pathetic stuff.
Look at This Fatass Tub of Goo, Hateful Radical Left Progressive Freak Michael Moore Threatening Joe Lieberman...

First, read the linked leftist column below about how Moore is on CNN dressing down CNN for not being biased enough to the radical far left. Because, after all, if you're a media outlet these days, you are supposed to be as biased as possible, right?
Second, I love how the linked leftist column describes Moore as a person who merely is devoted to his "liberal beliefs." Wrong. I can tolerate and respect principled liberals. But I have no place in my life for bitter, hateful, extreme, far left "progressives" of Moore's ilk. These people (much like the far right and your Rush Slimebaughs of the world) wake up every day with a mind full of extremist hate, the same way they fall asleep every night.
Third, and as I've discussed so many times in this space, there is hardly a more difficult position in which to exist in this country than as a non-conservative, non-liberal independent-thinking individual. Lieberman is feeling the brunt of that now from a pathetic sub-human creature like Moore. I know the same feeling anytime I show up on just about any website expressing my views. I get pounded hard from both extremes. It goes with the territory. But it always reminds me that I'm doing something right.
Fourth, and finally, if Moore is really interested in "getting" Independents such as Lieberman, I'd like to extend a personal invitation to his big fat ass to try "getting" me. I've got a big Southwest Missouri left hand just awaiting his big, fat, morbidly obese mug. With a 2-foot wide target like that, it would be virtually impossible for a straight left from a southpaw stance to miss.

Go Ahead. Take a Nice Long Look. It's For Your Better Health.

A German study (perhaps of dubious distinction, but does that really matter?) reports this week that "staring at boobs" for as little as 10 minutes a day is good for a man's health and can add years on to his life. Works for me.
Good to See Radical-Left-Progressive Dems Adopting Dick Cheney Phraseology & Talking Points. Goes to Show, Just 2 Peas in the Same Extremist Pod!...

...And so it is tonight that we get Far Left Loon Nancy Pelosi and her House colleagues accusing the Senate of "dithering" (a Dick Cheney word) on health care. So let me get this straight: One old out-of-touch extremist uses the word, and then another old out-of-touch extremist on the other extreme adopts it into her own lexicon! Please. These Washington politicians are so incredibly pathetic, so amazingly insulting to the intelligence of the American people, and frankly, so incredibly dangerous to the country that most of us know and love. You have to love how utterly out-of-touch (and uncaring about the same) this Pelosi creature is. I mean, using weird, archaic words and phraseology is apparently apart of her being. She injected the word "robust" into the "public option" debate recently, while I can't think of the last person I've met who has used that word in a conversation during my entire life. Now we get "dithering," following on Dick Cheney's lead. Folks, if the out-of-touch extremist policies that these people advocate were not your first clue, just listen to the kinds of words and language that they use in their rhetoric! These people do not represent us, rather they are only a danger to us. Pay no attention. And think for yourselves.
