I look for Sarah to have a long, fruitful career here, and just to prove her bona fides more as time goes on.
Go, Sarah, GO! Ignore the ‘tards on the left that comprise Hardball’s Chris Matthews, Olbermann’s fill-in Lawrence O’Donnell & the other MSNBC brainiacs. Just hearing Chris Matthews’ “‘HAH!” makes me gag.
A lot has been said about this book already, and much publicized so far, so I’m going to let this video speak mostly for itself. Tonight on Hannity’s show, “Game Change” authors Mark Halperin and John Heilemann were on to discuss some of the more juicy details of the book.
Today Rick Folbaum, sitting in for Shepard Smith on Studio B, had Judge Andrew Napolitano on to discuss the constitutionality of the Obama administration’s appoinment of the 30+ czars to date. This was in light of former Green Jobs Czar, Van Jones, who resigned at 12:01 AM on Sunday this past Labor Day weekend.
The more the administration tries to explain things, the more questions are brought to bear: Are the Czars vetted? Does the FBI do background checks? How much money do they make? What kind of power do they have in decision-making in the Obama Administration? Who funds them? Who appoints them? What is their experience, and who vouches for their character? How much experience, and better yet, what KIND of experience do they bring to the job? What Cabinet-level positions do they supercede in making decision for the Executive Branch?
So, so many questions, yet so few answers. And Van Jones is only the beginning. It’s not Van Jones; it’s the entire administration’s unflinching appointment of unaccountable people to positions of power within the White House about which we, as a representative Republic, REQUIRE answers!
Who will be the first to ask? And will we get answers? Without amateur citizen journalism (read “Google searches”), we might not have known anything about Van Jones’ sorry, anti-American, communist, corrupt past?
Let “bathtub boy” dispatch his minions to dig up dirt on Stu & Beck all they want – but honestly… how much “dirt” can 4 people dig up?
I, for one, am going to continue MY search into ALL of the non-elected czars appointed by this president. And don’t think for one minute that I am alone – I am not. The White House cannot scrub the web fast enough to prevent the unraveling of their anti-capitalist, social-justice agenda.
As I told a person recently who saw my anti-Obama bumper stickers and said “you’re playing with fire with that” implying my car might be damaged, I just looked at him and said “I love my country more than my car.” So if they want to come after me for displaying anti-Obama bumper stickers, or Googling Obama’s questionable appointments, I just have one response….bring it on!
Well, I went and did it today. I’ve finally summoned the courage, yet I’m ashamed I have to consider this an act of “courage.” It really is a sad commentary of where our country is right now, and it is fundamentally so contrary to our founding documents. I’m not the only one who’s been hesitant to do this, either. Everyone I work with, as well as friends and family, have all felt this way or still do. I finally put my my fear aside and did it. I’m the first in my group of family and friends. I’m hoping that what I did will encourage others to do so, as well. The fact that so many of us feel this way is just so wrong; so fundamentally wrong. So what is it that I did that was so “courageous?”
I put an anti-Obama bumper sticker on my car.
For so long and for very sad reasons, I’ve been reluctant to do so for fear of either getting my car keyed or damaged, or worse yet, being called a “racist.”
Today I have decided I can no longer carry that fear. I love my country too damn much. I can get a new car, but I cannot get my country back if I don’t take a stand. Yes, I know displaying a bumper sticker is hardly “taking a stand,” but if you look at it in context, that a lot of Americans are afraid to do so for reasons I cited, then I AM taking a stand. I’m saying that I value my right to free speech, I value the Constitution, I value my right to dissent, and I value what the Founding Fathers fought so hard for – not to mention our brave and valiant military men and women who are currently fighting for that very right. So why shouldn’t I display my bumper sticker? If it’s how I feel then that is my right.
It is so very sad that this sentiment is even possible in this great country. I cannot recall a point in my lifetime where this kind of fear was so prevalent. It is shameful. And it is un-American in and of itself to have this fear. It’s also irrational, although I won’t be surprised if my car does get keyed or scratched.
But if that happens, then it says more about the vandal than it does about me. My bumper sticker not only relates how much I love my country, but also how much I fear for her.
I’m going to let this video speak for itself. Michelle is on to promote her book, “Culture of Corruption.” I’d like to see Tanya Reiman read this panel’s body language. Joy is absolutely apoplectic, and Sherri struggles to speak intelligently.
Yesterday on Beck’s show, he outlined clearly for us that Barack and Michelle have been telling us all along what their plan was for this country, and he backs it up with their own words. The saddest part? A lot of Americans didn’t pay attention and dismissed it as political-speak.
Shame on us for ignoring it. He was telling us EXACTLY what his plans were, and yet 52% of us elected him anyway? Talk about a teaching moment! Yet this comes at a very heavy price…hopefully one that we will be able to reverse before we lose our Republic.
A good friend passed along this video to me today, and it couldn’t have come on a better day. Enjoy!
This video perfectly embodies the sentiment of those who oppose big government and unsustainable spending.

I am SO proud of one of my home state’s Republican Senators, Tom Coburn. Not only is he a fine Senator, but he’s also a physician. Today he fired a warning shot across the bow to Dems, saying that if they think they can vote yes on the “deem to pass” rule but think they [...]
Well, somebody’s gotta pick up ACORN’s slack, dont’ they?
Yesterday on Beck, Glenn revealed even more lies the president and top Dems are churning out about alleged “victims” of our “broken” healthcare system. They keep trotting out these people at press events and other occasions to use and abuse these people to get this healthcare [...]
…and hilarity ensues.
I don’t agree with Stewart’s political views, but when he’s funny, he’s really funny. Check out this latest video of his recent discovery of Chatroulette.
I didn’t know Brian Williams had that good a sense of humor! I needed this laugh today.
