I come in peace, I didn't bring artillery.  But I am pleading with you with tears in my eyes:  If you fuck with me, I'll kill you all.

On Drudge is the headline from Politico “Romney leads the Drudge Primary”. I guess Politico is trying to do a hit job on both Romney and Drudge. No linky because I don’t link to the NYT of the internet.

U.K. Paper says the Palin E-Mails have backfire on the MFM

They were looking for dirt and found that she is just what she, and all her supporters, has always said she is. So how did they screw up? They allowed the public to see the raw data unfiltered through their lying print.

On this date in 1966 the infamous Warren Court issued one of its stupidest rulings ever

 That was Miranda vs Arizona in which they somehow read a requirement into the 5th Amendment that police had to tell defendants what their “rights” were under the Constitution when they were arrested.  Must be in some of those emanations of the penumbra because I canÂ’t find it. 

 

Also on this date in 1971 the New Traitor Times began publishing the Pentagon Papers which ultimately caused several U.S. informants to be executed.  This resulted in yet another stupid ruling by the Supreme Court.

Illegals still doing those jobs American just will not do

First arrested in CO in 2003 while acting as a coyote transporting other illegals he was then deported. Back now in SC molesting underage girls. Too bad he went before a feral judge for this crime. If it had been a local circuit court he would be lucky to get out alive.

Ryan Ellis at NRO reminds of us of the dangers of falling for Democrat lies

In 1990 we read G.H.W. Bush’s lips and he agreed to a tax hike undoing RR’s tax cut in exchange for “unspecified spending cuts” down the road. Instead we got Bill Clinton, another tax hike and spending INCREASES down the road.

Every time Republicans make a deal with the devil they get the pitchfork up their ass and a sack of magic beans that never sprout.  They didnÂ’t learn in 1990 because they are still making “deals” now. 

Ellis says they have learned their lesson and it will not happen again. I am not so damn sure. Boner doesnÂ’t exactly inspire me with confidence right now and the Senate is even worse.

Yet another reason to be glad our land is not proximate to that of the arabs/muz:

http://tinyurl.com/3qz5fde

To tolerate the presence of Muz is tantamount to tolerating the depravity they advocate, which includes sex slavery for children. 

That the Europeans are willing to allow their children to be kidnapped and sold into sex slavery, without lifting a finger in response, is the greatest possible self-condemnation they could provide.  It's bad enough that they look the other way as African nations are raided, and people stolen for the arab slave markets.  But to allow your own people's children to be taken!  It's unthinkable.  I could be wrong, but I like to believe that if Mexican pedophile rings were stealing kids from Texas or Arizona, we'd be engaged in violent action to end that practice.

Yeah.  Well - it's not really that they pick bad places to live.  It's that the places they live become bad.  My home town, a small-ish town in southern mid-Michigan, has the 2nd highest per capita muz concentration in the US now.  Most are keeping their heads down for now (most regular folk are well armed there), but more and more you see those black-sheet-wearing loons wandering around, leading their flock of spawn.  No doubt fresh from a repast paid for with food stamps or other social assistance, enjoyed in a hovel occupied by no less than 20 relatives.  When I visit I dare not drive around to look at the neighborhood - it's too depressing to see the direction it's headed.

How come the Repubs don't seem to have enough money to get something like this going?  I thought they were the party of the rich!  A millon frivolous lawsuits would occupy the dems for a while, even if their hand selected progressive judges ruled against them.  I am still amazed that so many state AGs banded together against Obamney care.

68 Trying to sue some organization like the NAACP which is nothing more than a Democrat front group now to have their tax exempt status revoked would be a colossal waste of money.

First you would have to get past the "standing" argument which would be nigh on to impossible. Then you would have to get past the typical big city jury pool where the federal courts are all located.

Because their front groups like the NAACP and Jessie Jackson extort money from large companies by throwing the race card.

Remember when the NAACP was going bankrupt because all the money had been siphoned off by its corrupt leaders? Guess who baled them out.

Also remember the IRS audit after an NAACP convention in which Julian Bond spent a long time in a blistering attack on George Bush. Suppose a tax exempt white organization like organization  spent an hour attacking Obama. Would they keep their status?

"Of course, the difficulty there is finding a federal judge who isn't in bed with the Left.  It would probably be throwing good money after bad.  "

Until you fund the lawsuits, and begin suing, you can't begin a judge hunt. Really, this idea that we should throw in the towel because there might be a chance that we might not win is really pathetic. Republicans have to stop ALLOWING Democrats to win by default.

Put up or shut up. Sue the fucking bastards.

If there really are non-profit organizations illegally supporting the Democrat Party and Republicans don't want to sue to stop that, then I think that's pretty telling that this is a line of bullshit that we should just drop. Might hurt us in the long run.

Remember ... Weiner didn't want to call the cops. That was the tell. Same deal for Republicans.

Veterans Day is an annual United States holiday honoring military veterans. A federal holiday, it is observed on November 11.

To me that date is not "National Stupid Day" nor is it a date for something I wish to deride.

Yes, it is sort of like adopting their definition of terms without a whimper (another thing repubs are pretty good at):

"Bush Tax CUTS" instead of "maintaining current tax rates"

"Undocumented worker" instead of "illegal alien"

"IPAB medical experts" instead of "death panels"

"Trying to sue some organization like the NAACP which is nothing more than a Democrat front group now to have their tax exempt status revoked would be a colossal waste of money."

Fine. Then how about we quit fucking whining about it.

Nobody likes whiners. If we don't have the fucking cahones to take on the NAACP over its tax-exempt status then we should shut the fuck up about it. Makes us look like sore-losermen and that's horrible optics.

But really I'm not talking about the NAACP. They can make a plausible argument that they're working to advance black pride. We're talking about the SOROS funded organizations.

Those are the organizations that we should be suing in federal court. All of them. Simultaneous filings on the same day. Make them waste some of their money defending themselves against this completely legitimate attack.

Will we wiin? I have no idea, but I can guarantee you we won't win if we choose like a bunch of pussies not to even fight the fight.

Create a lawsuit fund. Just HAVING such a fund will deter Democrats from embarking down certain paths and that is to our political advantage. While we have power, we should pass a law saying that if we WIN such cases against these non-profits, then the other political party has to pay all the legal fees associated with the filing of the suit.

Time to start thinking like a Democrat.

To be fair, comics are drawn far in advance often without a set date and Davis had had never intended that comic to be run on Veteran's Day.  Davis came forward and apologized profusely, saying that it was horrible timing which caused it to run on that day.

That doesn't excuse Garfield for having not been funny the past twenty years though.

From the NY Slimes:

WASHINGTON — A few weeks before announcing his re-election campaign, President Obama convened two dozen Wall Street executives, many of them longtime donors, in the White House’s Blue Room.

The event, organized by the Democratic National Committee, kicked off an aggressive push by Mr. Obama to win back the allegiance of one of his most vital sources of campaign cash — in part by trying to convince Wall Street that his policies, far from undercutting the investor class, have helped bring banks and financial markets back to health.

“The first goal was to get recognition that the administration has led the economy from an unimaginably difficult place to where we are today,” said Blair W. Effron, an investment banker closely involved in Mr. Obama’s fund-raising efforts. “Now the second goal is to turn that into support.”

 

Let's here again that the Republican Party is the party of Wall Street. All you have to do is look at the voting record of NY (Manhattan) to see that's a lie but the MFM is too busy pouring over Palin's emails to do that

I think it is more like the Dems are the party of the big crony capitalists (gotta love those campaign contributions) and thus not really something we need to hear about from the MFM.

Conservatives are more like the party of small business growth, but you don't need to hear about that either.

I don't think he will. Bush didn't resign until he was president-elect. There's really no need for the gov to resign when the legislature is not in session. Since our legislature meets only in odd numbered years, Perry's got plenty of time to campaign before he has to decide to resign or not.

No. Perry is the longest serving governor in Texas history.

The Goodyear blimp in Germany seems to have suffered a catastrophic engine failure that resulted in the fuel igniting, which in turn ignited the envelope.  When the pilot encourageed the three passengers to jump, he sealed his fate.  Losing 400+ pounds of ballast like that would cause the ship to soar rapidly upward, preventing the pilot from jumping too.

Shortly after he probably lost control as the envelope began to deflate, causing the control cables to the elevators to go slack.  The valves for dumping gas are on the top of the envelope and may also have become inoperable because of slack cables or burnt electrical wires (not sure how they are activated).  At that point he was in a free balloon, on fire, with no method of escape.
