Charlie Bit Me, Again! Laughing Twins!

Here's some lighter fare to brighten your weekend. Naughty baby Charlie! 4-month-old twin boys laugh.

Abortion Art

Image
Remember when I went to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art last month? There was one piece of art that caught my complete attention. I love vintage stuff, so my first impression was how nice! Look at these old-fashioned objects. Then as I looked closer, I was like--hey--those are bloody surgical instruments in that bedpan down there. Oh, wait a minute. What is this about? My friend went to the wall and the card read: THE ILLEGAL OPERATION, 1962. Deep breath. Oh. Artscenecal describes the piece: At the same time Kienholz doesn't simply make voyeurs of us. He communicates empathy and culpability so that we become both victim and perpetrator if we remain passive. During the 1960s, when many people were campaigning for legalized abortion (remember that it was not legalized until 1973), Kienholz created The Illegal Operation, in which a woman's body, represented by a sagging burlap sack filled with cement, is trussed to the back of a shopping cart, complete with an oozi...

Techno Diagnoses Palin Derangement Syndrome

Image
Techno on Conservatives4Palin published his take on "the reasons why Palin is hated so vehemently by Obama voters, the Far Left, the Obama administration, and its allies:" 1) Before getting specific just look at these poll numbers now for the Messiah. Honestly and objectively, say Sarah Palin was never born (George Bailey in It's a Wonderful Life) and you know what you know about what has transpired over the past 13 months since Obama's inauguration and how weak or mild generally the GOP opposition has been to Obama (poll was taken before summit) do you really think Obama would be sitting now at 44% job approval? My answer: Rush Limbaugh and his cohorts would have kept Obama just under 50% but I really think Sarah Palin sent his numbers further into the tank. I believe the GOP as a party had little to do with Obama's fall from grace. The GOP is now jumping on the bandwagon of "I want him to fail." 2) The animosity, antagonism, and antipathy towards...

Kelly From Hillbuzz, A New American Thinker

I can't let this jewel pass us by. This lovely lady comments at Hillbuzz, and this is one of the reasons I like to read there so much lately. Kelly Says : February 27, 2010 at 4:19 pm As a republican who lived in the Bay Area and now NYC (I mean, why would I choose the two most liberal regions of the country!), I’ve had some truly shockingly cruel things said to me purely b/c I believe in limited govt and fiscal conservatism. I also happen not only to believe that we should be self-reliant and personally responsible, but I also believe that when we are allowed to depend on ourselves, we are stronger, more successful, take greater pride in ourselves and our work, and are more likely to make positive contributions to society. And then we are happier people, or at least more likely to be happier. Which brings me to my theory: I think fear is at the core of liberalism, and love/trust is at the core of conservatism. Liberalism is about control. Conservatism is about self-empowerment. C...

Liberals Lack Compassion-Family Guy

Dr. Frank Luntz wired up a room of half Democrats and half Republicans and the response to the jokes about Down Syndrome were highly polarized, as were the responses to Sarah Palin discussing her son, Trig, who has Down Syndrome. Talk about no compassion! ###

Britney in flawless shape

Image
Singer and controversial celebrity Britney Spears has a new job: model and spokeswoman for all-American shoe line Candies. And for it, the former Princess of Pop is looking better than ever. Taking into account how great Britney used to look ten years ago, that’s one serious compliment. Showing a perfectly shaped body and flawless long, muscular legs, the mother of two is living proof that exercise does a body good. After reportedly spending six to eight hours a day at the gym, Britney is back to her pre-motherhood weight and shape. And, despite the shoes she’s wearing in these ads being the last thing any hot blooded human will look at, there’s no doubt Candies shoe sales will go through the roof. After all, sex sells, and as these photos prove, Britney Spears is the new definition of sexy.

Killer Whale Violently Kills Trainer

Image
This story has captured my attention. Maybe it is the majesty of the animal, as portrayed in Free Willy . Maybe it is that Dawn Branceau was a 40-something gal with a long-hair ponytail, like myself. For whatever reason I find myself wondering, was Dawn's death avoidable? The latest information indicates that it was. This video shows footage of Dawn and Tillikum right before the attack. It turns out she had been feeding the whale in a "Dine With Shamu" show. And then went over to frolic with him for a bit, by lying down on a "slide out", an area of the pool that was a 4"-deep shelf. At one point after the tape stops, her hair apparently drifted across Tillikum's mouth. That was when he grabbed the ponytail and took off. The original story that she was standing by the side of the pool and Tillikum grabbed her by the waist was wrong. Although this must have been a violent attack, as her death certificate cites drowning, along with multiple trau...

Time For A Few More Phone Calls?

The healthcare summit went well for the Republicans yesterday. The Democrats came across as arrogant, rude, and they monopolized the speaking time. We saw it for ourselves. Is today a day to sit on our laurels? No. When you have the momentum, you must keep it. Take time today to call these congressional offices. We must make sure that the reps hear US louder than they hear Obama/Reid/Pelosi. Last I checked, Obama/Reid/Pelosi only have 3 votes between them. We are more numerous. Let's remind these reps who will decide their fate in November. These thirty Democratic Congressmen all voted FOR Obamacare the first time around. But Obama/Reid/Pelosi cannot count on their votes again as Obama tries to jam the bill through using reconciliation in the Senate. These members are all vulnerable and are frightened of the voter backlash for their support of Obama/Reid/Pelosi's "nuclear option" plan.... Call these people...

Swear Now, Or Forever Hold Your Peace

Can you believe that the CA legislature just voted to establish a "Cuss Free Week" as the first week in March? If this measure passes the senate next week, it will take effect immediately. Theuglytruth commented: "You gotta love these politicians and the way they spend tax payer dollars. It's amazes me every time they come up with some rhetorical idea. "SAVE A TREE, SAVE THE FISH, SAVE THE OWLS" But don't save California. Ha, haaa, haa ha ha ha ha haaaaa!"

Will Europe Become Muslim?

Image
If you have not received this email yet, take the time to read it. Confirmed true by snopes . Geert Wilders is a Dutch Member of Parliament. Here is the speech of Geert Wilders, Chairman, Party for Freedom, the Netherlands, at the Four Seasons, New York, introducing an Alliance of Patriots and announcing the Facing Jihad Conference in Jerusalem. Dear friends, Thank you very much for inviting me. I come to America with a mission. All is not well in the old world. There is a tremendous danger looming, and it is very difficult to be optimistic. We might be in the final stages of the Islamization of Europe. This not only is a clear and present danger to the future of Europe itself, it is a threat to America and the sheer survival of the West. The United States as the last bastion of Western civilization, facing an Islamic Europe. First I will describe the situation on the ground in Europe. Then, I will say a few things about Islam. To close I will tell you about a meeting...

Naked Body Scanners-New Stimulus Plan

Image
NewsCastDaily noticed that the images look an awful lot like full color negatives: What happens if you invert the full body scan images which is then a positive picture? You don’t need to be a computer expert, using any software suite like Photoshop will work. Inverting a photo is a simple process that takes one click and is an option available even in the most basic image editing software. When you invert some of these images you get a naked body in full living color. I don’t think the American people will stand for these results. If this system gets put into service, how long before naked photos of people start showing up all over the internet. Now we know why the full body scanners break child porn laws in the UK. According to Fox News : The first (3) of 150 full-body scanners planned for U.S. airports will be installed in Boston next week, officials said Tuesday.... The rest of the 150 machines that were purchased with $25 million from President Barack Obama's 2009 stimulus pl...

A Clean Sweep

Image
I found a flyer on my doorstep the other day. It was for Ludwig House Cleaning Service . On the back of the flyer was a handy list of cleaning tasks which got me thinking. Maybe I'll hang onto this so I can better organize my house cleaning activities. Yesterday I ran loads of laundry and dusted/polished furniture and mirrors. Today I did the bathrooms and kitchen (whew!). Tomorrow I vacuum and mop. I'm not sure I will be hiring a new cleaning service now that the other one stopped. I will try my hand and see how it goes. There is a certain pride of accomplishment that comes from looking at a house cleaned by one's own hands. To generous souls every task is noble.--Euripides Regular Tasks (performed at each visit) Bathrooms: Basin, tubs, showers and shower doors Vanity tops Toilets Mirrors Floors Fixtures Kitchen: Countertops, sinks & appliances Stove, everything moveable Microwave, in & out Outside of ovens Refrigerators, top & front Window over sink...

School Choice - Stossel

Did you know that CA teachers have tenure after just 2 years on the job? Ugh! That explains a lot! We spend 3 times on education (adjusted for inflation) than we did in 1980, with test scores flat. Why. Hat Tip NNN .

Charlie Cook Says Dems Will Lose The House In November

He says it is "very hard to come up with a scenario" where the Dems don't lose the 40 seats to Republicans. This is based on miscalculation, not miscommunication. Cook is a highly respected pundit among Democrat circles. Or at least he used to be. They'll probably "shoot the messenger" on this one, though. Hat Tip The Fix .

Call These Healthcare Swing Vote Congress-People

Dick Morris targets the vital swing votes that can stop Obamacare in the House. He says the Senate is a lost cause. But please do more. If you live in any of the states from which these swing Congressmen come, please call them. Let them know your opposition to health care changes. The phone for Congress is 202 224 3121. Here’s the list: Vulnerable Democratic Congressmen Who Voted FOR Obamacare The First Time Around These are the folks we need to pressure to switch their votes! Arizona: Harry Mitchell (Phoenix suburbs) Gabrielle Giffords (Tucson) Ann Kirkpatrick (most of rural Arizona, NE part of state) California: Jerry McNerney (Stockton and Pleasanton) Colorado: John Salazar (Pueblo) Connecticut: Jim Hines (Fairfield County) Florida: Alan Grayson (Orlando) Illinois : Bill Foster (Dixon, Batavia, and Geneseo) Indiana: Baron Hill (from Kentucky border up to Bloomington) Michigan: Mark Schauer (Branch, Calhoun, Eaton, Hillsdale, Jackson, Lenawee & Washtenaw counties) Gary Peters (...

How We Can Fight Back Against Reconciliation For Obamacare

Per Dick Morris : We need to rally one last time to STOP him! Obama will probably get the House liberals to go along with passing the Senate bill as long as reconcilation looms in the future. He will also have no trouble getting the 51 votes to pass reconciliation in the Senate. The only way to stop him is to deny Pelosi the support of conservative Democrats in the House who are scared to death following the Scott Brown victory in Massachusetts. When we first figured out what the White House was up to, we prepared ads to run in each of the districts of the swing conservative Democrats who voted for the original health care bill. As you may remember, health care passed in the House by only 220-115. Thirty-eight Democrats voted no. But about twenty-three conservative Democrats voted in favor of Obamacare. They are all vulnerable to defeat this year. We need to advertise in their districts to persuade them that voting for Obamacare would mean likely political defeat. We need your funds to...

I'm Past My Prime

As I reflected on aging this morning in the shower, I thought, I'm Past My Prime . Then I remember every word of the song and belted it out, as one should do when in the shower. OK. I didn't play Daisy Mae in the main show in Junior High. To be precise, I played Daisy Mae's understudy. But they ran an understudy show on Sunday afternoon so everybody got to participate. This song is a sweet little duet and makes me reminisce...

O'Reilly Defends His Statements On Gun Confiscation In State Of Emergency

Here we go again. Commenter greywolfe at therightscoop said: "It boils down to this: There is no provision in the constitution that allows the government to disarm a law abiding citizen. The tenth amendment states that any right not granted to the federal government belongs to the states or THE PEOPLE. His assertion that any action by the government is legal unless a court says otherwise is spurious at best. That leads to tyranny of the courts and that is not the province of the courts. I'm sending this comment to O'reilly. Let's see if he still wants to defend those comments."

Britney Spears: New Candies Pic

Britney Spears: New Behind-The-Scenes Candies Pic! Check out this new behind-the-scenes shot from Britney Spears‘ Candie’s shoot with celeb photographer Terry Richardson! The 28-year-old princess of pop posed for Terry, Mark Seliger and Annie Leibovitz for Candie’s Spring 2010 campaign. These shots were taken late last year at Hollywood’s Paramount Studios! For more from Brit’s new campaign, including video and a look at the spring fashions from Candie’s, check out Candies.com! Britney Spears is back to modeling for the popular teen brand Candie's. What is really amazing though is that the troubled pop star looks like she's back to her original fine form, as the ad campaign looks to be a lot less airbrushed, at least according to Britain's Daily Mail. For the Spring/Summer 2010 ads, Spears was photographed by three of the world's top photographers, including Annie Leibovitz, Mark Seliger and Terry Richardson in three different sets. For Richardson, Britney frolics in a ...

Chris Matthews Feels Left Out of Tea Party

Really. And he feels the term Patriot excludes him. Hmm. Maybe he's right... After watching this it paints a clear picture of what we're up against. Trust me when I say that these two ignorant buffoons are not alone in their beliefs and feelings about the Constitution and Americans standing up for it. Many on the far left are so ignorant about our Founding Fathers and the American Revolution it makes it easy to feed them this anti-Constitution {edit-stuff}. Matthews was clearly ignorant as to why the Bill of Rights was an essential component to the Constitution. He didn't understand why there needed to be a Bill of Rights for the "gun nuts." Well Mr. Matthews let's educate you on the Bill of Rights from a reliable source at http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/bill_of_rights.html . Hat Tip John Carey .

O'Reilly Says Second Amendment Is Optional

He thinks that bad weather can suspend the Constitution. I disagree. In fact, I'm a little tongue-tied after viewing this video. I may have to remove O'Reilly from my DVR. Since when did defending the Constitution become an "extreme position." :-(

Opus #6's Divorce Lawyer Flies To Haiti and Back 5 Times In One Weekend

Image
Did I tell you I went to divorce court today? Again? Turns out it was a non-event. But I got to talking with my lawyer, Patrick McCall, and he had quite a tale to tell... Now I knew that he flew small planes. He has pictures up in his office. But I didn't know he flew larger 10-passenger planes. And I didn't know he and his children and friends spent the long weekend in Haiti ferrying supplies and doctors. I asked to see pictures and here are some examples. This one shows how the passenger compartment was piled high with food and supplies on one of the flights in. Pat says that the loads were about 3 tons, heavier than a car. Here is Pat McCall (Family Law Attorney in Orange, CA) with his kids, crew and friends. Pat is fourth from the left. Local kids: A load of doctors going home to America. The unloading process: Unloading is the tricky part. It really depends on WHO is doing the unloading. Apparently there are warlords and gunmen who take control of stuff and hoa...

Another Watergate? MSM Doesn't Want To Report About Rashad Hussain.

Image
If any American Jews still support Barack Obama, this should be the nail in the coffin: Someone is covering up for Rashad Hussain. But who? And what did Barack Obama know, and when did he know it? Rashad Hussain is the Obama administration's newly appointed special envoy to the Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC), the thuggish international organization that is engaged in a full-scale campaign to intimidate Western governments into adopting hate speech codes that will effectively quash criticism of Islam - including jihad violence perpetrated in its name. Rashad Hussain is an apposite choice for this position, since several years ago he defended a notorious U.S.-based leader of a jihad terrorist group. But someone doesn't want you to know that, and made a clumsy attempt to cover it up. In 2004, Rashad Hussain, then a Yale law student, declared that the investigation and prosecution of University of South Florida professor Sami al-Arian, who ultimately pled guilty to ch...
