Beretta (Kat-Mo)
— Open Blog

Uncle Joe's gotta gun.

He's also got a raging case of penis envy. That's the only reason I can think of for some jackass politician announcing to a room full of strangers that he owns a Beretta and no one is going to mess with his gun. Least of all, his running mate, Sen. Obama.

He couldn't get the votes if he wanted to.

Joe Biden = Hedley Lamar

The thought of Uncle Joe owning a gun almost makes you believe in gun control.

Almost.

Hearing Uncle Joe proclaim he owns a Beretta made me have flash backs. John F'n Kerry, orange vest, shot gun. John Kerry catching a football. John Kerry taking a soccer ball to the head. John Kerry wind surfing. John Kerry eating a Philly Cheese Steak. About as natural as tits on a bull.

If Uncle Joe actually owns a Beretta it's probably locked away somewhere collecting dust since Carter was president. Considering how often he shoots his mouth off and misses, you have got to be afraid Ol' Joe might shoot his own toe off or somebody else's head.

Uncle Joe was trying to win his "street creds".

Biden told the crowd that he himself is a gun owner. "I got two," Biden said, "if he tries to fool with my Beretta, he's got a problem. I like that little over and under, you know? I'm not bad with it. So give me a break. Give me a break."

"A little over and under"? Give ME a break. Put your penis back in your pants and stop waving it around, Joe. You're scaring all the little kiddies.

His opponent, Gov. Palin, has nothing to prove. The entire world knows that she owns a gun or two or three and she knows how to use them. She doesn't have to talk about them or prove anything. She walks the walk while Joe talks the talk.

That is the difference between living the life and a wannabe.

UPDATE: I was just thinking. You know the difference between Joe Biden, Sarah Palin and Dick Cheney?

Sarah and Dick don't miss. IYKWIMAITYD

UPDATE: Back by Popular Demand..

By the way, I don't know if any of you stopped drooling long enough to listen to the guy at the end of the video. After Palin shot, he said, "Pretty close to dead center."

Do NOT f*ck with Sarah Palin!

UPDATE: We are just kickin' it today. Krono's down in comments reminded us about this little doozy from Uncle Joe:

"I don't know if he mentally qualifies to own that gun". Pot. Kettle.

UPDATE: One more...Pretty Fly for a White Guy. thx mpur

And, holding to Ace's standards, an old music video that may or may not have a damn thing to do with our subject

Fearmonger in Florida: Obama Lies About Social Security
— Gabriel Malor

Lemme tell you the one about the lawyer who lies. What? You've heard it?

Obama is in big trouble in Florida. Over the summer he spent $8 million on advertising there. McCain spent nothing, but always managed to stay on top in the polls.

Democrats are talking about turning out new voters and rarely-voters. That sounds good and feeds the Obama Change motif. The problem is that these voters are not reliable, something Democrats learned in 2002 when they made a nation-wide push to defeat Jeb Bush. People are more than happy to tell a chirpy phone-bank volunteer that they are fired up. But no one knows how many actual votes that will be on Election Day. So a change in tactics is in order.

Last week Obama claimed that McCain is running a dishonest, dishonorable campaign built on "lies and spin." This weekend, Obama embraced that strategy. He decided the best way to grab votes is to scare the bejeebus out of grandma.

A new Obama ad characterizes the "Bush-McCain privatization plan" as "cutting Social Security Benefits in half." This is a falsehood sure to frighten seniors who rely on their Social Security checks. In truth, McCain does not propose to cut those checks at all.

This is the same argument that derailed the President's social security reform plan. No matter how many times it was pointed out that this is a blatant, provable lie, Democrats would tell seniors that Republicans were trying to slash their benefits. Grandma and grandpa would freak out and once their paranoiac buttons have been pushed you can never quite erase their suspicion that someone is trying to take something from them.

The ad is airing in Florida, Michigan, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin.

Obama is also scaring seniors on the campaign trail, lying to them about privatization.

In Daytona Beach, Obama said that "if my opponent had his way, the millions of Floridians who rely on it would've had their Social Security tied up in the stock market this week." He referred to "elderly women" at risk of poverty, and said families would be scrambling to support "grandmothers and grandfathers."

That's not true. The plan proposed by President Bush and supported by McCain in 2005 would not have allowed anyone born before 1950 to invest any part of their Social Security taxes in private accounts. All current retirees would be covered by the same benefits they are now.

And for those who are young enough to participate, privatization as proposed by the President would be a voluntary.

That last quoted sentence is the most important one. All current retirees will be covered by the same benefits they are now. Unless Republicans hammer this point in the same breath in which they mention Social Security, Obama and the Democrats will continue to lie about it...and get away with their lies.

It's also worth mentioning (again) that long-term investments in the stock market do better than "investment" in Social Security. As Drudge had it yesterday, "DOW UP 40 POINTS IN PAST MONTH - UP 18% PAST 5 YEARS - UP 44% PAST 10 YEARS." Properly diversified investments are not nearly the gamble Obama makes them out to be.

Sunday Morning Fun
— LauraW

Top o' the mornin' to yuz, darling crumbcakes.
How about a silly links post?

You'll like this first one. It comes with musical accompaniment.

Here, get this music going in another tab while you're reading this news item.

Wasn't that fun? See, you don't get this kind of rich experience at most other smart military blogs.

Here's another tasty morsel of lunacy.

The lunatic, of course, is the bar owner who thought that she could have a couple Little People wrestling in oil and keep things clean and family-like. No way, nuh-uh.

They are hot, hot, passionate people. Whew.

My God, they are so insanely fuckin' hot.

Am I right? ....have you ever...?
No?
Um, nevermind. Let's move along.

Democrats come up with edgy new way to woo voters.

That was an accident, but the Dems' stale platform could use a little sexing up. Some voters might be swayed if a sultry-voiced vixen described what Dems want to do to them.

We could spitball some ideas for them in the comments, here, yes?
Sure. We're helpful that way.

The Drumbeat [dri]
— Open Blog

To "paraphrase" a line from the movie "The Terminator" the drumbeat of cultural Marxism can't be reasoned with; it can't be bargained with; it doesn't feel pity or remorse or fear; and it absolutely will not stop. Ever. Until American capitalism is dead.
Below are excerpts from a great piece written by William Staneski at American Thinker who forcefully lays out the case that not only are we as a society are under constant bombardment from those who would destroy our culture and our way of life but that we are also unaware of its eroding pervasiveness. Please take a few moments from your weekend and read the full article. It is a real eye opener.

The drumbeat. It's always there. Day and night. Rain or shine. Winter or Summer. Sunday or Monday. It comes at you from every direction. It comes over the TV, the radio, at work, at school, in music, in the newspapers, from the politicians, in conversation with others, even in church. It wears you down. It robs you of the will to resist its message. Even short-lived victories, which stop it briefly, leave you with the knowledge that it will return; each minor victory bound to be lost to the redoubled efforts of this patient and persistent force. You can't escape it. It never stops. It never gives up. It never ends. It rains upon you from every possible angle, from every possible source.

It's the drumbeat of the left. It is political, philosophical, theological, and social. It pervades every activity. It is post-structural, post-modern, post-everything in the parlance of the day. It is tolerant, diverse, non-judgmental, non-discriminatory, egalitarian, politically correct, multicultural, globalist, and collectivist. It insists that there are no rights and wrongs, no moral absolutes. It turns everything upside down in its looking glass world. It denies the correctness of all that produced what our culture revered before the deconstruction of the world in accordance with the tenets of cultural Marxism.

It denies God, human exceptionalism, and the soul. We are reduced to Darwinian animals floundering in an amoral sea of meaninglessness. It is a product of the nihilistic, existentialist philosophical movement, which went hand in hand with modern art, atonal music, scientific materialism and modern physics, and the generally discordant nature of the twentieth century.

The main thing that is being ignored in all this is human nature. It is all based upon the arrogant presumptions of the elitist cultural Marxists concerning how people ought to act. It leads to totalitarianism and destruction.

College Football Thread
— Dave in Texas

Commenter toby928 asks:

23 This all well and good but why no college football thread today? Bama's kicking ass for a building year.
Posted by: toby928 at September 20, 2008 06:52 PM (8yq/t)

Indeed sir, why not?

The game he refers to was a 49-14 blowout over Arkansas, who didn't play last week in Austin because of hurricane concerns.

The interesting game this weekend is on now, LSU (6) against Auburn (10). I'm predicting an Auburn upset.

Speaking of predictions, you still have time to get your NFL Moron Picks in. Nothing on the line except braggin rights, and frankly, bragging in front of you goofballs is like kissing your sister.

Not my sister, your sister.

Goldfarb schools Time mag over their racism charges
— Purple Avenger

Michael exposes Tumulty for the completely in the tank O-bot that she is.

Time magazineÂ’s Karen Tumulty accuses this campaign of racism for launching this ad targeting Senator ObamaÂ’s ties to Fannie Mae Chairman Franklin Raines...

...The only problem with Ms. TumultyÂ’s story is that we also released an [ad] today targeting Senator ObamaÂ’s extensive ties to Jim Johnson. The ad is calledÂ…Jim Johnson. And Ms. Tumulty might have been aware of its existence if sheÂ’d bothered to call this campaign to find out the facts (reporting) before indicting us for racism in a half-baked, late night rant. Tumulty also takes ObamaÂ’s response, signed by Mr. Raines, at face value. The Obama campaign says Raines didnÂ’t advise the campaign, and Tumulty apparently wasnÂ’t interested in getting to the bottom of that either. So we contacted Ms. Tumulty and told her of the multiple sources that tie Raines to Obama, including three separate instances in the Washington Post, none of which was ever challenged by Raines or the Obama campaign until yesterday.

Tumulty did not correct her post, she simply responded “I grew up in Texas. I know what this stuff looks like.” Well, now we all know what hysterical liberal bias looks like as well.

Eh, don't worry; we'll get them. The whining metrosexual sissy Obama has promised he'll conduct the Great Overmountain Invasion of Pakistan once in office.

What? Why are you laughing?
