Want to know for sure if you’re talking to a Liberal? Just say anything pro-Conservative and if they become irrational, start name calling, get hysterical or begin accusing your side of the same sins their side is committing…you’re talking to a Liberal.
The naming of Sarah Palin as John McCain’s running mate has the Left biting their elbows. They have been all over her, since Friday, like white on rice but they simply weren’t ready for Sarah’s selection.
The Messiah’s people had formulated all their talking points between now and Election Day to ensnare some traditional ‘dude’ like Mitt Romney, Tom Ridge or even Joe Lieberman. Obama’s team was never prepared to deal with a female maverick like Governor Palin who, in the number two position, possesses every quality the Democrats have been trying to fabricate for their candidate in the number one spot. All of a sudden, Barry-O finds himself perched precariously atop his temple with one foot on the throne and the other potentially on a banana peel!
Isn’t it interesting that Palin is being compared with Obama, not her counterpart Biden! The knee-jerk reaction of the Left was to attack her for a lack of experience. It’s a big mistake to open that can of worms. In truth, The Governor is more qualified to be President than is The Anointed One himself! She had already been in politics for five years when Obama was only making the transition from trouble-maker in the streets of Chicago to the Illinois State Senate. She is already an experienced Commander-in-chief, Governor of the largest state in America (and larger than all except 18 countries), single handedly crushed party corruption and boasts a better than 80% job approval rating from her constituents, just for openers. B. Hussein Obama has done nothing…nothing but manage to be absent during votes or vote “present”, which is the equivalent of pleading the fifth. The question of his readiness to lead has been raised by his own Party, including by his running mate, Joe Biden! Sarah Palin is already a proven leader.
The Dems are also trying to paint McCain as sickly, which is another dangerous path for them to walk, considering Biden is the one whose health has been hanging by a thread. There is nothing wrong with being a cancer survivor. I know, first hand and skin cancer is quite common. Do you see what I mean about Libs being “irrational” and “hysterical”?
On top of her many accomplishments, Sarah Palin is the consummate Twenty-First Century, liberated female…balancing a career with motherhood and living her values instead of just talking about them. Her selection as John McCain’s running mate seems to be improving the comfort level of both Conservatives and Reagan Democrats with regard to the Republican ticket. It also provides those who supported Hillary’s candidacy a place to move toward instead of just turning away from this moment in history.
Oh, as far as the acid test goes, Once you know you’ve got a Lib by the tail just smile politely and say, “Barack who?”
B. Hussein Obama may have built his temple in a ballpark but John McCain “went yard” and hit one out when he announced Sarah Palin as his V.P. running mate today. She is everything the Dems keep trying to say they are and gave a substantive acceptance speech consisting of complete, fumble-free sentences. She infuses youth and additional real world experience to the McCain-Palin ticket.
While the alleged ”party of opportunity”, which constantly seems to confuse rhetoric with results, has shown disrespect for women by throwing Hillary Clinton overboard, the Republicans have scored an historic first of their own by welcoming a highly qualified woman like Governor Palin onto their ship of state.
Did Obama bump his head on something? Maybe someone grabbed the wingnut attached to his neck and twisted too hard. I know…he’s been playing around with one of those do-it-yourself lobotomy kits again!
This would be great comedy entertainment if he were doing anything else but running for the highest office in The Land. As you may already have heard, this doorknob is going to give his acceptance speech, not only from a football stadium instead of The Convention site, but from a Greek Temple he’s having built in the middle of it!
If a picture is worth a thousand words, here’s an entire book defining the word arrogance:
It really doesn’t matter what he has to say because we’ve seen and heard it all before…on Star Trek:
With any luck, this will be Barry’s fatal “John Dean yelp“. A fitting finish to The Anointed One’s little monologue would be for a giant spaceship to swoop down, scoop him up and whisk him away. Please!!!

P.S. - Quote, Rush Limbaugh: “This is going to be The Superbowl Halftime Show without the game!” Amen.
Hillary Roddam Clinton gave a dazzling, well-rehearsed performance at the Democrat Show last night. She handily achieved all three of her objectives with carefully chosen language and a delivery as bright as her orange pants suit. For two nights, the lackluster crowd milled around the floor looking like guests at an Irish wake before the drinks arrived. But when Hillary stepped up to the podium, out came the placards and the guests were ready to toast the nearly departed.
She didn’t need to outshine Barack, only Joe Biden. She did…and the mistake of leaving her off the ticket was apparent. She also fulfilled her Party obligation, urging her faithful to follow Obama, but offering no more than was absolutely necessary to maintain her favorable Democrat standing. Most importantly, Hillary’s speech focused on Hillary and set the stage for another run at the Presidency in 2012. In fact, you might as well think of this as the beginning of that campaign.
There were several touching moments when the cameras caught Bill looking misty-eyed and proud. At one point he even mouthed, “I love you”. Knowing the true Clintonian nature, it was hard to tell whether to hand him a handkerchief or an Oscar. Somehow, I’d prefer to believe that at least some of his antics might have rated a small Kleenex.
At the minimum, Mrs. Clinton’s itemized accomplishments assure her of a place in the dissed female candidates’ Hall of Fame. Let’s not forget she did so well that a bloodied Obama barely crawled across the finish line. Except for the turn of only one or two elements during the primaries, this would have been a Clinton Convention.
Publicly she declared, “No way, no how, no McCain”. I’m guessing that privately she’s cheering him on like crazy. As the most likely one-term president, he’s her best chance for speaking on her own behalf next time!
Well, they hosed her down, scraped her off and now she’s all sweetness and light. Makeovers may be good entertainment on the Opra show but not for imposters seeking to invade The White House at any cost. As I watched some of the Democrat garden party last night, I suppose it was good to see Ted Kennedy still vertical…but then the repackaged, reconstituted version of Barry’s bride showed up with her projector and home movies.
To me, Michelle Obama will always be that angry black racist who spoke about “White oppressors” in her thesis and only recently became proud of her country…even though she may think it’s a “downright mean” place. I’ve never been able to get into the what have you said to me lately mentality; I tend to believe that first gut level remarks are the honest ones, not those made after you’ve had time to clean them up and coat them over.
I once had an old car that rusted out badly. I really enjoyed driving her and the engine was still in pretty good shape, so I put more money than I probably should have into sandblasting and repainting. But you know what? As skilled as the body shop technicians were, the same old rust just kept coming through.
I’ll start thinking of the Obamas as folks just like me as soon as I live in a multi-million dollar house and begin reporting in excess of four million dollars income for a given year. At times, my friends are nearly as eccentric as I am but I don’t count unrepentant terrorists, racist preachers, underworld slumlords or convicted felons among them. I don’t know how you make all that go away, so I guess I’ll always have trouble thinking of Barry and Mish as people just like me.
Sorry Mrs. ‘O’ but I’ve always loved my country, think America is the greatest place God ever put on this earth and feel both comfortable and safe clinging to my bible and guns. That’s why our Founding Fathers wrote the first and second amendments and placed them right at the top of the list…you never know when they’ll come in handy.
At last the circus that passed for an Olympic Games is over. The hastily constructed venues will eventually collapse and, just maybe, many of the thousands, who were “relocated” during preparation, can return to the areas they once called home.
I’m happy to say that I wasted no more time watching than necessary to confirm my original suspicions as to what the event would be about. I had no interest in witnessing the facade attempting to cover the deception and iron-fisted control of a government that has about as much regard for freedom and human rights as a squeegee has for a bug on a windshield.
Modern Olympics have always operated in the shadow of corruption and political agendas but rarely so blatantly as the shameless display witnessed on this occasion. Throughout the Games, stories trickled out of jailed dissidents, banned websites and curiously empty protest zones. Questions about China’s continuing political repression hovered constantly in the background. The affair became a show of glitz and glamour for the locals, with stringent visa regulations limiting the influx of foreign tourists.
Beijing residents, who were always up to date on the medal count, often became agitated when the foreign press raised questions as to whether several medal-winning Chinese gymnasts might be underage. Polite applause for foreign competitors occasionally degenerated into boos or, just as bad, half-empty stadiums…this despite vows that all Olympic tickets had been sold. By the end of the Closing Ceremony one thing had become clear: The world may have been invited to watch Beijing 2008 but this was China’s Games; everyone else was just a bystander…not because the Chinese athletes performed so well but because their government performed so badly.
What happened to the concept of international competition among the best amateur athletes in the world? Sporting events are about more than just taking center stage; neither the spectators or the athletes had the slightest idea of how to conduct themselves. They seemed to mirror the attitude of their government which insulted the very spirit of The Olympics before The Games even began.
I salute the performances of our incredible American athletes and seriously talented competitors from all other countries who competed in the spirit of true Olympians. I look forward to the next event four years hence with hope that the disease incubated in China does not become contagious.
So Barry-O finally made a decision and named Joe Biden as his running mate. Now we have two candidates at the top of the Democrat ticket who suffer from terminal foot-in-mouth disease. Nevertheless, the selection is a good one for Obama…nearly as good as it is for John McCain.
The choice of an older attack dog takes age off the table and, given Biden’s history, appears to be an admission by Obama that the main issue is national security, not the economy as promoted up to now during his campaign. That means having to play the game in McCain’s backyard where both his bark and his bite carry authority. To make matters worse, Biden and ‘Bama have each been supporting defeatist policies in a war we are now winning. Oh…we can probably forget the change theme with an ‘old traditionalist’ on the team. While a 36 year Senate veteran may help the rookie Obama look more respectable, at the end of the day, it’s still the top spot on the ticket that gets the votes [or not].
The choice of Biden is the official confirmation that Hillary is being ‘dissed’ for the second time. This has, predictably, bent Clinton supporters even further out of shape and disruptions are being planned for next week at the Democrat Convention. If you can tune in and still hold your dinner down, I’m betting that what you’ll see resembles the bar scene in the original Star Wars movie more than it does a political convention. May the farce be with you.
Almost a year has passed since I first said the media’s dream ticket would be Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton…in any sequence. Alas, it was not to be. Even now, as we tremble for word from on high of the number two choice for the Democrat ticket, it turns out that Hillary wasn’t even on Barry’s list of possibilities. Wha’ hoppin’ to all his assurances that Mrs. Roddam’s little girl was right up there in the running? The woman was never even “vetted”.
If I were a Clinton supporter, I’d be mad as hell at being deceived for lo these many months [just to shut me up] and at the complete lack of respect shown for Hillary’s achievements in her own historic campaign. Not only was she the first woman to run for President but, while she only narrowly lost the popular vote, Hillary handily surpassed Obama in her total of all important electoral votes…the ones that count in November.
“The Anointed One” not only insulted Mrs. Clinton but dealt a cowardly cuff in the face to women everywhere! As I see it, you have two choices: You can stick out your lower lip and pout like ‘little Mary Jane what’s her name’ next door or you can hold your head high, march proudly to your polling place on Election Day and vote Republican. Yes you can!
