Where's Nancy Pelosi and her smug gavel march today!

Image
It has been a long wait to wipe that smug grin off her face. Thank you, Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum for your patriotic service. Thank you Judge Vinson for upholding our great Constitution. I pray that the Supreme Court agrees with you. Wouldn't it be great if the Democrat party beat itself to smithereens passing horrible legislation that damages America, then the legislation gets thrown out? They better not issue a "stay" on this ruling. There is no "stay" on our Constitutional rights. If anything a "stay" should be issued against Obamacare and backdated to when it was passed.

Can somebody explain the middle east to me?

Image
Things have gotten confusing for me as of late. Let's start with Egypt. Fox News calls El Baradei a "moderate leader comfortable on the world stage". Is the Muslim Brotherhood behind the protests? Is Al Baradei in the Muslim Brotherhood? Or is it a reaction of people who can no longer afford food? I saw a video with one guy saying he will die today anyway without food. Is the Muslim Brotherhood Al Quaeda? Is there a possibility that getting rid of Mubarak could NOT cause huge problems for Israel and the U.S.? They say that Yemen is also at risk. At risk for what. Last I heard, Yemen was one of the hardest of the hard-line muslim countries. So hard line the population is virtually 100% muslim. How much worse can Yemen get? Lebanon will fall to Iran? Will the Saudis stand for that? I don't see them giving up Lebanon without a fight. But here is where it gets tricky for me. If Iran is the worst, and the Saudis are the second worst, how come 15 of the 19 ...

The women of Charlie Sheen Rule 5

Here is porn star Capri Anderson, aka Christina Walsh, working hard to keep a balanced diet.  Would the Obamas approve of her food choice? via wizbangpop dot com And let's not forget Sheen's long-suffering first wife, Denise Richards.  Her show was called "It's Complicated"?  You better believe it.  Now we know what she was talking about.  It's complicated trying to raise two lovely little girls when their daddy is a whoring druggie. via laineygossip And here is the lovely Brooke Mueller.  She was later to regret this marital hookup. via zimbio Be sure and check out The Other McCain , the source of rule 5 blogging. Also, Maggie's Notebook features a timely rule 5 post of lovely Egyptian women . And don't forget these other fine blogs, good reads any day whether they post rule 5 or stick to political commentary.

Update: Egyptians hosed down during prayers, Mohamed El Baradei on house arrest

Image
Nobel Peace laureate Mohamed El Baradei is on house arrest , according to Egyptian security officials. Mubarak is certainly acting like a tyrant here. Since when do people get arrested simply because they disagree with the current government? K.T. McFarland commented on Fox that the dominoes are starting to fall. They fell already in Tunisia, and there is now trouble in Egypt, Yemen and Iran. What is important is that the dominoes fall in our direction and not in a direction that leads to a breeding ground for islamic jihadists. She says that all of these movements have a second act. In the Iranian revolution the pro-democracy movement was shoved aside quickly by the ayatollahs. Usually whoever prevails in the end is the most ruthless group. Excellent coverage over at Maggie's Notebook . Watch the latest video at video.foxnews.com Update via a Michelle Malkin tweet. Twitpic from @ollywainright shows Egyptians being hosed down during prayers.

Video of Egypt protests, many people in the streets

It is being reported that both Twitter and Facebook are blocked in Egypt right now. On You Tube commenter zoomzoom686 noted "to all human rights organization please report what is happening in suez . they are committing a mass murder . what is happening is unacceptable . people were protesting peacefully until the police forces provoked them and they started shooting at them for no reason . if any one has a video about the update on the ground please post on youtube , & try to comment on it with both arabic & english so the world can see what kind of tyrant mubarak really is . thank you all......." tekaklas comments: "What's happening in Suez is a situation that is beyond reason or comprehension. What's happening in Suez now consists of a war in the streets with all the meanings of the term. There are tens of protests throughout Suez. 10s of people have been killed. Headquarters of the ruling party in the Arabaeen neighborhood has been burned as well as...

Dems need to work on their message

Did Obama say that he needs more money to "rebuild crumbling infrastructure" in his State of the Union speech last night? Did he really say that? Does he think we are idiots? Never mind. I think I know the answer to that question. It is almost like groundhog day two years ago. Does Obama think we don't remember how he promised shovel-ready jobs two years ago? How can he think he will get away with promising infrastructure jobs again? And how stupid would we be to believe him? I saw Nancy Pelosi's interview with Greta last night myself, and I swear it was frustrating. I thought we got rid of that woman. Is there a reason we couldn't have a Republican interviewed on that program? In the meantime, Pelosi says that the way to create jobs is to fix the educational system. This is political speak for a government takeover. I for one think it would be awesome if Pelosi and her cronies could sink their hooks into my kids and indoctrinate them for 12 years str...

Dying for big breasts, porn actress dies during 6th breast enhancement surgery

Image
The 23-year-old Carolin "Sexy Cora" Berger died last Thursday at a clinic in Hamburg, Germany, when trying to have her breasts made over from a 34F to a 34G. She suffered brain damage during the procedure, possibly from a problem with the anesthesia, though doctors claim they did nothing wrong. We really are good enough as we are. I wish all young ladies would realize that.

This is why I was not online today (Video)

The two little ones finally got up on the hill with momma. It was their third day on skis ever. The older one has much more experience but he is a good big brother and wanted to ski with the family. Not bad video quality considering I was holding the Blackberry in one hand, my poles in the other, and looking out for obstacles while trying to keep the boys in the viewfinder.

Keith Olbermann's Countdown ends, tonight is last night of show

What a shock. And great news. Somehow MSNBC decided that Olbermann no longer fit into their nightly lineup and they have "ended their contract". Can I say Yay? And to Olbee: If you ever have a chance to read this, "Bye byeee!" Edited to add this happens 2 days after Comcast takes over NBC. Also, I just left a comment at Huffpo that got deleted within minutes. I said, "Oh what a relief it is." Was that SO offensive? Methinks Ariana is feeling a bit sensitive tonight. After all, she was a guest on his show. Update: This is turning into a boycott of NBC and Comcast. The Huffpo lefties are buzzing around like hornets without a nest. Update 2: A bunch of them want him to go back to baseball commentary. Eeeew! That would be a HUGE reason not to tune into baseball on TV.

Immelt appointment = cronyism

And why would we expect anything different from Obama? A good portion of the "stimulus" funds demanded by Obama went to pay for political favors. The money certainly didn't go to "shovel ready jobs" as Obama himself was eventually forced to admit. So now Obama appoints crony Jeff Immelt to head the President's Council on Jobs and Competitiveness. How rich. This is the man who said that there was a lot of money to be made by General Electric in advancing the democrat agenda. He continues to work as G.E.'s CEO. And he is supposed to impartially represent American business and the jobless? I doubt that the other companies will trust him one iota. I certainly don't.

China to raise prices on U.S. consumers by 30%

Image
China devalues U.S. buying power by 30%, but preserves the present value of Chinese-held Treasury Bonds. This means that by summertime, and certainly by next holiday season, Chinese goods will be 30% more expensive, for the same low-quality merchandise. This may cause some buyers, like Walmart, to look at manufacturing in other countries. And may cause American merchandise to sell better in comparison, thereby decreasing the trade deficit. The reason for this is an increase in the commodities market, which caused an increase in food prices in China. The government had to cap increases in food prices for the people, and decided instead to pass along the price increases foreign buyers. Keep in mind that the picture above is deceiving.  While China's economy grew many times faster than the U.S. economy did recently, the Chinese GDP is still 1/3 the U.S. GDP. Many many Chinese continue to live in poverty even though they work.

Can there be too much togetherness?

Image
As a mommy of a recently potty-trained three-year-old, this picture from a Kentucky bathroom via twitpic (thank you @imacifi) makes me laugh. I guess it's a good idea. I'm remembering when he and I were bundled up at the ski resort recently and he needed to use the potty. What is a momma to do? I think I might like to see a little privacy divider, though, if I were designing this bathroom. I particularly like the mini flush potties. They have a couple of these at the childcare area of the synagogue and the boys always felt so big being able to use a "real" potty without help. What do you think?

Please explain why George Washington statue was hidden during MLK rally in S.C.?

What the huh? This was done by the NAACP so that attendees would not be "offended"? Maybe they need to hold their rallies on non-American territory then. Like Cuba. I am really offended by this! Hat tip Atlas Shrugs via Hillbuzz . Good coverage at Maggie's Notebook on this topic.

Redwood, hang in there. We can still save American freedom.

Image
This is my response to a commenter on Z's wonderful blog. Redwood, since December 23, 1913 the socialists have won many battles against freedom in America. Many seemingly permanent social programs have been put into place. It is good news that the Tea Party are looking further back than the 1900s for guidance in righting America's course. It is good news that some of our young people, my own children included, read our blogs, think about issues in a way that is not pre-digested by MSNBC, and begin to question the liberal pundits that 4 years ago got a free pass. It is good news that many patriots are awake to the dangers that face us and we realize there is no place left for us to hide. We must fight for a free America. We have no choice. It is good news that majorities in many, many states voted in a conservative manner in 2010 so as to conserve what is left of this great country. It is good news that our eyes are opening to foreign threats to our nation. It is good that many ...

Chris Christie schools Chris Wallace and teachers' unions

Chris Wallace confronted Chris Christie with 1 billion worth of cuts that hit New Jersey education as a result of Governor Christie's unwillingness to raise taxes. He had a screen of bullet points. He said the cuts caused: *10 thousand layoffs/retirements *larger class size *local schools had to impose sports and bussing fees Question: "is that the way to improve education in New Jersey?" "Do you know why those things happened?" answered Christie. "Those things happened because the teacher's union REFUSED to take a one-year pay freeze and to contribute ANYTHING towards their health benefits. If they would have contributed one and a half percent of their salary to health benefits and frozen their pay for one year none of those layoffs would have had to occur." Wallace seems kind of liberal here. Am I seeing things?

Our Blogger Friend, Bungalow Bill, gets a visit from the FBI

Image
Local blogger claiming FBI intimidation Local blogger Clay Bowler said newly-elected 7th District Rep. Billy Long has tried to silence him before. And, after the FBI paid him a visit at his Ozark home Jan. 12, he thinks he’s trying to do it again. “It’s political payback,” Bowler said after visiting Christian County Sheriff Joey Kyle Jan. 13 apprising him of the FBI investigation. Bowler writes the  Bungalow Bill’s Conservative Wisdom  blog and said he’s been critical of Long since his candidacy for Congress. Bowler is also the author of the Long is Wrong blog that’s been gone since Long won the general election in November. “I’ve poked fun at Billy,” Bowler said. “Part of it was satire—exposing Billy as not being a real Tea Party candidate.” Bowler said Long even offered him a job on his campaign if he would give up his critical blogging. Bowler was accompanied to the Sheriff’s Department by Michael Wardell, Nixa, who was also on the Republican primary ticket. Wardell said he...

My insensitivity has me in Dire Straits

When I first heard that Canada had banned this song, I assumed that the "money for nothing" part had offended their socialist sensitivities. Maybe the radio stations edited the song I listened to years ago. I never knew that the word f****t was in this song 3 times in a row until today. I guess I lead a sheltered life.

Would state bankruptcies neuter union power over Democrats?

Image
via slapupsidethehead dot com The idea is intriguing. Dick Morris states today that the congress should refuse to aid socialist states in financial trouble and that the reorganization that would come with bankruptcy would be healthy for all government. Also, it is important that we not pass along our debt to our children. The buck needs to stop here at the very least. I agree with Morris that the states should not be bailed out, but I also like the idea of the unions losing power. It was so frustrating to me to see the CA teacher's union donate $1,000,000 to the cause of gay marriage during the Prop. 8 election. Why does a teacher's union feel it must try to influence state social legislation? And why did the SEIU become so entrenched as to battle against the American People in pushing Obamacare and campaigning against Scott Brown? How are these legitimate union activities?

Hate Speech=Everything the Left disagrees with, including "Job-Killing" bill

Image
The leftist politically correct police would like conservatives to remain silent no matter what is being said about them. And now Rep. Chellie Pingree (D-Maine) wants Republicans to remove the "Job-Killing" reference in the Obamacare repeal bill. It is more than a bit of a stretch to believe that somehow Republican leaders caused Loughner to go on a killing spree. Yet this is what Pingree says. That if we watch our idioms and figures of speech, paranoid lunatics like Loughner will never pick up a gun and go on any killing sprees. That all this is our fault, despite the fact that Loughner had been viewed as a threat by fellow students and teachers at school, despite the fact that he was rejected from military service for drug use, and despite the fact that he had a skull-altar in his parents' back yard. And worse yet, Rep. Pingree is only echoing what Patricia Maisch, the hero lady who grabbed the second magazine before the gunman could reload,  said to Shep Smith ...

The Post About Gabrielle Giffords Daily Kos Doesn't Want You to See

How the Fed Controls the American Dream

Who does the Fed answer to? Who controls them? Who is their oversight? How did they seize the unconstitutional power to print money? This long video is animated, clear and worth the time. John F. Kennedy was the last president with the guts to confront the Federal Reserve. In June 1963 he signed an executive order taking the printing of money back to the American government. He died 6 months later. Sent to me by an Oathkeeper. Edited to add: Watch it quick, it keeps getting deleted.

Thanks, Dems. Debt used to be 8.7 trill, now is 13.9 trill

My word. This tweet brings tears of sadness to my eyes. How low the socialists have brought us. :-( C. Steven Tucker On Tuesday 4th January 2011,  @CSteven  said: FACTS the PHONY MARXIST DEMOCRATS don't want you to know: When Pelosi & the Democrats took control of Congress on January 4, 2007, the national debt stood at $8,670,596,242,973.04 — that’s $8.67 Trillion. On the last day of the 111th Congress, our debt stood at $13,871,130,353,817.40 — that’s $13.87 Trillion. That means the PHONY MARXIST DEMOCRATS ADDED $5.2 Trillion to our DEBT in just FOUR years. $3.5 TRILLION of which was added under Barry the Marxist Malcontent Manchild. AND THEY WOULD STILL BE ADDING TO IT HAD WE THE PEOPLE NOT STOPPED THEM! God Bless the Tea Party, 912 Groups and God Bless what's LEFT of our Great Republic!

White House Plans to Hire Lawyers to Deal With Darrell Issa

Aren't both of the Obamas lawyers? Rep. Fred Upton says it should be more about accounting and numbers than lawyers. Maybe Obama and his crew have a guilty conscience? And if our politicians turn out to be criminals, can we get our tax money back? Will the White House lawyers be paid for by our tax money? If that is so, shouldn't they get public defenders? Holder didn't do anything about ACORN corruption, about the New Black Panthers voter intimidation, or about Wikileaks spying. Darrell Issa says that a good part of his oversight will be to pursue Eric Holder's failures. Another main focus of the new congress will be cutting spending. I am so happy that Issa plans real oversight starting immediately. God willing, the days of unfettered Washington graft and corruption are coming to an end. Hallelujah! Also at American Power, Rep Darrell Issa slams Obama administration as "one of the most corrupt ever"-plans aggressive hearings in new congress .
