— Purple Avenger However, 63% of the Political Class think the government does have the consent of the governed.
In polite company, this apparent complete disconnect is known as "cruising for a bruising". In less polite company, they're molesting the poultry.

Oh, and for those beating up on Beck, the "political class" includes Republicans.
So we're supposed to cheerlead and pretend the GOP gets it when it clearly doesn't? Certain Republicans may be rubbing the sleep from their eyes, others may be smelling smoke and yelling to wake up those in the next room, but not very damn many are actually fighting the fire.
Posted by: grognard at February 22, 2010 09:51 AM (v0kvW)
And this is why I've been saying for months now the Republicans need to be out there holding informal townhall meetings letting the people vent and getting feedback from the People.
Instead the Republicans are sitting on their thumbs; they're not pro-active in the least bit. It's pathetic and it's frustrating. DO SOMETHING you stupid lazy pricks.
Besides Michelle Bachman, there isn't a single GOP member of Congress who is pro-active and staying in touch with the rank & file.

This is why they keep bringing back the healthscam bill and other crap sandwiches like the amnesty round II that they are weaseling in a little bit at a time.

The Republicans are either so complacent they don't give a shit, or they're so arrogant they don't even think they need something like a Contract With America to win in November.

Uh oh, just heard on the news that a Grand Jury is starting a criminal case against Toyota. Subpeonas have been issued.
Actually that is "federal prosecutors" in NY opening the "investigation". It is a pure PR stunt for Obama and the unions ant GM.
It will go nowhere. I got a letter once from the federal court here in SC and had to fill olut a questionair for grand jury duty. After I did some research I found that a federal grand jury can do ANYTHING it wants. Too bad the idiots who are picked usually wind up being nothing more than dupes of the federal prosecutors.
Hell, I would call for an indictment of Obama's staff.

From the link: Lucas places familiar objects in shocking or unexpected arrangements. Many of these exploit the sexual innuendo that is a key feature of popular British comedy, from Carry On films to Viz magazine. In this photograph, the humour has a troubling edge. Displaying a plucked chicken in place of a young woman's genitals, Lucas hints at the violation and gender stereotyping that underlies such jokes.
Ummm -- what gender stereotyping would that be? That women like fucking chickens? That's a new one on me . . .

I don't understand why Beck is taking so much heat from people like Levin, Bill Bennett and even Rush said something a little while ago, though he didn't mention Beck by name. I realize there are some good repubs out there, but judging from what I have seen, they are few and far between. I only have to think people like Newt, Charlie Crist, Lindsay Grammnesty, John McCain and I'm sure I can come with many more, to see exactly where Beck was coming from.
More and more convinced this is the "good ol boys" getting their undies in a wad.

@209 - Boehner isn't nearly as bad as some, but I think he's stuck in an old way of doing things.
For example, even his statement about the "Bipartisan Summit" being in jeopardy was too polite, nibbled around the edges of the issue, and was non-committal in terms of what he would actually do about the obvious sham.
Then, he puts it on his web page. As if the media would go anywhere near it.
He's not fighting effectively.
He needs to stand up, speak plainly, embrace alternative media (not just his own web page) and articulate his course of action. He needs to justify himself.
The way he's operating allows the Dems to outflank him.

White House vs. Reality [KJL]
At his briefing today, Robert Gibbs said: “We are tremendously hopeful, which is why the president posted ideas of his on the White House website today. We hope Republicans will post their ideas, either on their website or we'd be happy to post them on ours, so that the American people could come to one location and find out the parameters of what will largely be discussed on Thursday.”
A Boehner spokesman replies: “Mr. Gibbs needs to talk with his boss. Our health-care alternative — the full text of the legislation — has been available at healthcare.gop.govfor months, which President Obama knows, since he discussed it with us in Baltimore a few weeks ago.”

And soon she'll feel a lot of hurtin'.
My friends, all think I'm weird;
I'll state my case of which I'm certain.
I've lived a life that's fowl -
I've fondled each and every avian.
And just, because of this,
Some people say, I am depraven.
Egrets? I've had a few,
But then again, too few to ration.
I did what I had to do
And plowed right through, no hesitation
I planned each bird encounter -
Each longing poke along the feathered,
And more, much more than this,
I did it my way.
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew,
When I bit off more than I could chew,
But through it all, when there was doubt,
I ate it up and spit it out.
I faced it all and I stood tall
And did it my way.
I've loved, I've laughed and cried,
I've had my fill - my share of birdies.
But now, as tears subside,
I feel it all so absurdly.
To think I did all that,
And may I say, not in a shy way -
Oh no. Oh no, not me.
I did it my way.
For what is a man? What has he got?
2 birds in the hand, is not a lot
To say the things he truly feels
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows
And did it my way.
Yes, it was my way.

Now that Ochickenlittle has ceded to every dictator and wannabe nuclear power, it's only fitting, that a teenie tiny nation, in the middle east, is deploying a state of the art fleet of drones. That can reach Iran.
Russia has unveiled it's vastly superior new fighter. China's comes on line next year.

Sure, you have the right not to consent to our present form of government. But if you withdraw your consent and stop paying taxes, own a gun they don't approve, or do anything else to color outside the ever-narrowing lines, you have the IRS, ATF, and FBI arguing over who gets to lock you up. You'll be trying to pay back taxes from a Federal prison cell while trying not to be some lifer's girlfriend.
And if you take the Declaration's advice about altering or establishing it, the "political class" will lock you up on some sort of conspiracy to commit domestic terrorism hate-speech thought-crime charge and you're right back to the Federal penitentiary.
