Washington's Wake

Posts Tagged ‘Obamanation’

I read about the following bon mot from Chrissy Tingles.

CHRIS MATTHEWS: “Will the Democrats running for the House re-election, they’re all running for re-election under the Constitution and the Senate candidates, will they run away from President O’Carter? I mean, will they run away.”

Hmmm… Speaking of Jimmuh Carter.

( h/t The Professor)

Just sayin…

Please watch the following video and tell me that what she says is not the scariest thing you’ve heard from a potential Supreme Court nominee?

This woman should be nowhere near the Supreme Court. This non answer shows how extreme she really is. How can she sit there and not say that such a law would be unconstitutional? If the republicans had any nuts, which they don’t, they would filibuster this nominee until November. I won’t hold my breath waiting though.

suppose the oil’s coming
like a plume of endless death
and lousiana’s cryin
as her fish run out of breath
suppose the gulf is burning
and the men there got no hope
poor louisiana’s dyin
and the hang man’s outta rope
 
America, America
I watch your labored breath
tell me tell me darling
Is this oil spill your death?
 
suppose the guns are loaded
like the notion of a war
and washington’s on fire
like so many years before
suppose the taxes risin
like the shackles on a slave
freemen with blood a-boil
how’d you think they will behave?
 
America, America
I watch your labored breath
tell me tell me darling
Is this argument your death?
 
suppose the drug cartel’s coming
like a new king with his men
and Arizona’s dying
as her border blurs again
suppose  the budget’s broken
and the money’s growin’ tight
poor california’s burnin
and it just don’t seem quite right
 
America, America
I watch your labored breath
tell me tell me darling
Is this really just your death?

So there’s obviously a problem in the Gulf. Neither the government nor BP has exactly showered themselves in competence. The governments job was to think of these problems ahead of time and ask all drilling companies how they would fix the issue. Obviously the government did not do its job. Hey, it’s the government, when have they ever been competent at doing anything? As for BP, they too are being idiots on this. In their case, they are getting punished in the market. That’s how it’s supposed to be. If they actually get this thing under control, they may recover. If not, hello bankruptcy court.

And how are the government agencies being punished for their incompetence?

“This is one of those 9/11 opportunities where you can rally the country to move in a different direction,” said Lisa Margonelli, energy director of the center-left New America Foundation in Oakland.

Ahh yes that’s the ticket. Instead of reviewing what went wrong, lets push for more government action. Let’s see. The existing government agencies are incompetent. So let’s create more government agencies. How do these morons live every day? Seriously. We see case after case of government incompetence and yet their first thought is, lets have more government.

Doubling down on incompetency is not going to make things better. You have the tools available right now. Killing the economy for your own pet peeves like cap and trade is not going to fix this oil spill. Stop using a crisis, which you created, to go ahead and continue on your radical remake of America. If you had actually shown that any of your government answers worked, you may have a case. Instead, day after day we see that old truism, government is not the solution, government is the problem. That you can’t see that shows your blindness to the real world.

In the comments of a hotair.com post about the flash-mob on a banker’s front law, someone pointed out that these purple shirts are the mondern day version of the brown shirts – enforcing a sort of thugocracy.

This seems so relevant and true to me, but more so, troubling.

The idea that the intellectual violence of Obama and his people is so readily accepted and his Orwellian twists on his opponents so easily swallowed by the masses is sickening. I don’t know where this is going, but it doesn’t feel like it’s anywhere I’ll want to be.

I wonder if the Obama Regime is worried about armed rebellion? I was reading Chuck Norris’s article about the second ammendment and it really strikes me that there is only one reason for those folks to so actively thwart the 2nd Amerndment: Fear.

I think they know that they’re doing things that are absolutely anti-constitutional and treasonous. I think they know that they are subverting the will of the governed, and they are stealing away liberties at an alarming rate. The alternative is that they don’t know it, don’t believe it, and truly believe the ridiculous things they say. They ARE stupid, and they ARE evil, but they’re not THAT stupid and they ARE that evil.

So, I think it’s a safe bet that there will be no legal guns in the hands of conservatives.

Get ready to fight, they have already declared war, they just haven’t told us yet.

So the administration finally admits the obvious. Contrary to Nanny Bloomberg, this was the work of an Islamic terrorist with complete funding and help by an Islamic terrorist group in Pakistan.

Top Obama administration officials jettisoned the theory that the Times Square terror suspect acted alone on Sunday, revealing that the Taliban in Pakistan — known as Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan — hatched and bankrolled the failed plot.

Eric Holder, making his first Sunday shows appearance as Attorney General, told ABC’s Jake Tapper on “This Week” that investigators have “now developed evidence that show that the Pakistani Taliban was behind” last weekend’s attempted bombing of Times Square.

“We know that they helped facilitate it,” Holder said. “We know that they helped finance it, and that he [suspected bomber Faisal Shahzad] was working at their direction.”

Wow. Shocked. No really. I’m shocked that the administration actually had to admit that an Islamic Terrorist propagated this attack. Now if they’ll only admit the same of the other attacks…

The bigger problem is that they refuse to see the elephant in the room and act accordingly because it’s obvious that this administration would rather be liked than do the right thing. It’s pretty much the Stuart Smalley administration.

And to prove the point, here’s what the chief law enforcement officer had to say about terrorists.

Holder also said for the first time that the administration is open to modifying the Miranda rules that protect criminal suspects in custody, and will work with Congress to revise its public safety exemption, which allows for delaying the warnings in the event a suspect has knowledge of an immediate danger to the public, to adapt to an age of terrorism.

“The [Miranda] system we have in place has proven to be effective,” said Holder, who has drawn criticism for administering the self-incrimination warning to Shahzad, a recently naturalized American.

“I think we also want to look and determine whether we have the necessary flexibility — whether we have a system that deals with situations that agents now confront. … We’re now dealing with international terrorism,” Holder said.

“I think we have to give serious consideration to at least modifying that public-safety exception [to the Miranda requirements]. And that’s one of the things that I think we’re going to be reaching out to Congress… to come up with a proposal that is both constitutional, but that is also relevant to our times and the threats that we now face.”

I suppose the obvious thing, instead of chipping away at my contitutional rights, you could conclude that we’re dealing with someone who has declared war against the US and should approach things from a military standpoint. After all, the Islamic terrorist groups have repeatedly stated, they are at war with the US. Maybe the US should, you know, take them at their face value, and act appropriately instead of ruining the rights of US citizens.

Yes I know that is really too simple a plan and would require the world view of this administration to change and admit that no, they don’t like us and no amount of talking will make them like us. They want us dead or subjugated to the will of Allah. And the quicker this Stuart Smalley administration figures this out, the sooner we won’t have to deal with dead Americans because of the incompetence of this administration.

Look, I get it, he’s a cuckold. He’s not his own man. Dammit, if this bowing thing doesn’t piss you off as an American, then I don’t know what will. The whole friggin point of the revolution was to be our own country and our own people and to not bow down before anyone.

It really is dispicable.

And if you really don’t think he’s bowing, here’s the video to prove that yet again, the cuckold of America, bows down before others.

And to think he did this while in this country. Ok, I could maybe, almost, sort of see, doing the when in Rome thing. But this is in DC. If there is anyplace that people should be bowing before you, it’s in your own country. Weak. A horrible yet predictable thing that will only encourage those that wish to do us harm in the world.

And we have yet another democrat that hasn’t read the bill. Either that or she’s lying through her teeth. I know, what’s the difference.

She actually says the passed health care bill does not require you to purchase health insurance. So, either she’s lying through her teeth directly to her constituents or she’s utterly clueless. I’m not sure which is worse. She literally says you don’t have to purchase health insurance even though the law is quite clear that not only do you have to purchase insurance, they will sick the IRS on you if you don’t. I don’t know about anyone else, but this is a clear case that this person does not deserve reelection.
