presidential approval, rasmussen poll
In politics on August 31, 2009 at 11:12 am
Don’t expect this poll to get much play in the mainstream media. Things are looking ever more dismal for BHO. More people now disapprove of the job he’s doing than approve. That’s a pretty spectacular fall for such a short time in office. Here’s something else you won’t hear reported. The gulf between republicans and democrats is enormous. 81% of dems approve while 83% of repubs disapprove. So much for bringing the nation together. He’s also lost independents. They now give him 66% disapproval. This poll was taken while he was vacation, too. Just wait until he gets back to D.C. to watch his numbers fall even more. LINK
charles rangel, Martha's Vineyard, tax cheat, ways and means committee
In politics on August 31, 2009 at 8:20 am
Can you imagine what would have happened to a Republican under the same circumstances? The press and dems would have screamed about it every hour on the hour. But not with Charile. He’s a democrat. It’s okay that he is chairman of the Ways and Means Committee and a repeat tax cheat. To the tune of millions of dollars! He is an out and out crook that needs to be kicked out of office and thrown in jail. If Obama had any decency – which he doesn’t – he would personally call for Charlie’s arrest. But it’ll be a cold day in Martha’s Vineyard before that ever happens. LINK
andropov, ted kennedy, traitor, treason, ussr
In politics on August 28, 2009 at 9:10 am
In 1982 Teddy sent a letter to USSR leader Andropov with suggestions on how the soviets could defeat Reagan’s planned arms build-up. He suggests methods in which the Soviets could get the upper hand in the propaganda war. He assumes the peaceful intentions of the Soviets and the devious intentions of Reagan. He offers to visit Andropov in Moscow to plan their joint offensive. It is nothing short of treason. He conspired with an enemy of America against his president. Pretty unbelievable stuff. So when you watch the endless media stories about Teddy’s perfection, as they gloss over the fact that he killed someone and was a drunken lush, don’t forget to add this accomplishment to the list. Teddy Kennedy was an unabashed American traitor. LINK
glenn beck, marxist, obama czar
In politics on August 27, 2009 at 9:09 pm
Glenn Beck has been running a series this week exposing Obama’s Czars. His ratings have gone through the roof. You’d think the White House would want to refute his claims about the czars being marxists but they’re cool with that. The thing that gets to them is the term “czar.” So they thought they could treat Glenn like all the rest of the news media. Just call him up and command him to stop. Use the term “special advisor” they say. To which Glenn told them to stuff it. If they don’t want us to call their czars czars because they don’t like the term czar to describe their czars then maybe we should piss them off by calling their czars czars every chance we get to call their czars czars.

Kennedy Eulogy
In politics on August 27, 2009 at 1:38 pm
After twenty years Rush still can surprise us on a daily basis. He is simply the great conservative thinker of our time. He didn’t use Teddy’s death to criticize him instead he said we should be inspired by his example. Teddy didn’t settle for the 3rd rate healthcare he advocates for the masses. He wasn’t limited to the care dictated by the government. He sought out the very best America had to offer. Simply put – he had the freedom to choose his healthcare. So why not take the opportunity of his death to guarantee that the American people have the same rights? Are we any less deserving? LINK

In politics on August 27, 2009 at 9:15 am
While the media has had us all focused on the Fairness Doctrine Obama’s statists are hatching a media revolution. If you read FCC Czar Mark Lloyd’s plan to remove our freedom of speech it will send a chill down your spine. It’s a long complicated program that creates 8 FCC censorship offices around the country to remove conservative radio from the airwaves one station at a time. It’s so methodical and anti-American. In his writings and speeches Mark Lloyd has said our claims to freedom of speech have been greatly exaggerated. He is not concerned about ensuring antiquated ideas of free speech. It is his goal to impose his idea of fairness by handing the airwaves over to “real people.” There is even a youtube video where he praises Chavez’s takeover of the media to end the free flow of speech in Venezuela. Once again, thanks go out to Glenn Beck for exposing Mark Lloyd and his ruthless agenda. LINK
cia heroes, dick cheney, lefty kook base, obamacare, terrorist interrogations
In politics on August 26, 2009 at 9:05 am
Nobody pushes Dick around. If Obama thinks he can attack the CIA with no one calling him on it, he’s got another thing coming. In an effort to distract from his economic and healthcare catastrophe Obama has gone back on his earlier promise and decided to investigate CIA officers who interrogated terrorist detainees. Dick rightly points out that we should be holding these people up as heroes, not persecuting them. They are responsible for eliciting information that stopped untold attacks and saved thousands of American lives. Obama is just feeding red meat to his lefty kook base to try to make amends for momentarily wavering on the public option in ObamaCare. It is a truly sick person who would sacrifice good people for his own political gain, but that is the president we have in Obama. LINK

In politics on August 25, 2009 at 1:42 pm
Beck is not a TDI favorite. It’s not so much what he says as the way he says it. All the goofy faces and mugging for the camera. It’s more of a style thing really. But you have to give it to him this week on his continuing series to expose Obama’s Czars. Color of Change founder and current Green Jobs Czar Van Jones was his first victim. He played clips of Van in his own words admitting to being a follower of communism. He also advocated for people of color to oppose authority with violence. He openly admits he is just using environmentalism as a means to achieve his societal transformation goals. He’s a radical, militant lefty and just the sort Obama loves to surround himself with. Beck is doing some good work here and maybe it’s time to upgrade him from the lightweight category. Rush Limbaugh apparently has. He has agreed to appear on Glenn’s show this Wednesday. That’s all the endorsement we really need. LINK
Martha's Vineyard, obama vacation, unemployment rate
In politics on August 25, 2009 at 9:03 am
The contrast is stark. The royal family is living it up while the king’s policies have doomed the masses to the highest unemployment rate since the depression. In Obama’s mind his rewards are justified. The rich capitalists have taken their unfair share over the years so it’s only right that a committed socialist and activist like himself should grab all he can to even the scales. He doesn’t care how it looks to the unemployed. He has them right where he wants them. When things become too dire they’ll have no choice but to come crawling to government for handouts. That’s the plan. So don’t begrudge your king’s indulgences. Be proud and live through him. If he has his way, that’s as close as you’ll ever get to the good life. LINK
arlen spector, Death Panel, obamacare, va
In politics on August 24, 2009 at 10:02 am
Spector knew his flight to the Democrat party would bring risks. Although Pennsylvania is a slightly left of center state, they are far from liberal. The polls show Spector trailing behind his republican competitor. So what does the turncoat do to try to get back in good graces? Act more conservative. He’s found himself a solid issue to champion. He’s calling for the suspension of the VA “death book” that the Obama administration has recently reintroduced. It’s a book doctors use to discuss end-of-life issues with vets they want to get off the public dole. The creepy thing is that it’s also used for vets in wheelchairs and with financial problems as well as for those facing terminal issues. It’s very easy to draw a parallel with the methods that would be employed with ObamaCare at large. Spector is on the right side of this issue but it’s hard to imagine he’s sincere about it. It’s a bold and smart political move but we shouldn’t be fooled. The people of Pennsylvania need to elect a solid republican and send this guy packing. LINK
Death Panel, debunking myths, obamacare
In politics on August 22, 2009 at 10:53 am
Not often you get to start and end a sentence with the word debunking but Obama provided us with the perfect opportunity. He’s out there “hammering away” at supposed republican myths. He claims that it’s not true that illegal immigrants will get health insurance under reform. He says this in spite of the fact that congress would not allow the republicans to add a measure that stated illegal immigrants would not be covered. And there are several youtube videos of Obama saying it is our moral obligation to cover illegals. His next statement is a tricky one. He says it’s not true that abortions are “mandated” under the plan. But saying they aren’t mandated is a far cry from saying they will be prohibited. He says every credible person agrees that there are no death panels mentioned in the bill. This is true that the exact words “death panels” are not used but a council is described that would make life and death decisions based on life expectancy vs. cost. Finally, he says the government plan would be optional. That you can keep your private insurance if you so choose. Although the bill doesn’t out and out ban private insurance it puts into play many provisions that would run private insurance out of business within a few years. So, everything he said was just mincing words. It’s obvious he’s lying and misrepresenting the bill in an attempt to fool us into supporting it. Maybe the most offensive thing about his “debunking” is that he provides no proof to support his claims. That his mere utterances should be all the proof we need. He just expects us to blindly believe. He doesn’t seem to realize those days have passed him by. He no longer has the trust of the American people. LINK

Obama introduced the public to a new phrase this week – wee-wee’d up. Someone asked Gibbs what it means and it took him about 1,000 words to try to explain. It’s pretty darn funny to watch him sputter and spit. From what we can gather it means that you get so upset that you wet yourself. And you thought Obama wasn’t a classy dude. LINK
contraditions, obamacare, wall street journal
In politics on August 21, 2009 at 5:00 pm
A great column in the Wall Street Journal points out that the problem isn’t that people aren’t listening to Obama. The problem is that they are and they can’t make any sense of what he says. From day to day, sometimes within the same speech, he makes completely contradictory assertions. He says the healthcare system we have now is a complete disaster that needs top-to-bottom overhaul but if you like it then nothing will change. He claims government won’t interfere with decisions between patients and their physicians except to force them to reduce the number of tests and treatments doctors prescribe. He uses Medicare as an example of a well-run government program that he also says has out of control spending and needs top-to-bottom reform. The only way you could support ObamaCare is to have complete and baseless blind faith. LINK

In politics on August 21, 2009 at 1:33 pm
Sarah Palin continues to be the most sensible voice in the Republican Party. Why accept Obama’s premises about what’s wrong with healthcare? An honest and objective look at the supposed healthcare “crisis” reveals the real problem is the rise in the practice of defensive medicine. The trail lawyers sue with no caps. To protect themselves, doctors have to order extensive and sometimes unnecessary tests. Tort reform is what’s really needed. Sarah sites success stories in Texas where malpractice claims dropped 41% after reform measures were passed. Sarah is an example for us to think for ourselves and not to buy the bull Obama is pushing. LINK

In politics on August 21, 2009 at 9:17 am
Ouch. Obama is proving to be one of the most divisive Presidents in American history. Just look at the huge gulf in this new Zogby poll – Dems give Obama an 84% approval while Repubs give him an astoundingly low 5.7%! And the thing that’s really killing him is that he has lost the independents, too. He only gets a 37.5% approval amoung that group. Average it all out and the supreme leader gets a less than supreme overall approval rating of 45%. Couple this with the recent poll that showed a majority of people in all 50 states now describe themselves as more conservative than liberal. As Dick Morris points out, it looks more and more like BHO is riding his healthcare horse right over the cliff. LINK
bipartisanship, broken promises, obamacare
In politics on August 20, 2009 at 5:17 pm
Signaling a willingness to chuck bipartisanship into his ever growing pile of broken promises, Obama guaranteed ObamaCare will pass with or without any republican votes. This is the first time Obama has publicly given his support for congressional democrats to go it alone by using a seldom employed provision that allows them to pass a bill with only 51 votes. Many question whether this move is even legal since the provision was designed only to be used for budgetary votes. Obama went on to list his four basic requirements for a healthcare bill. He said it must 1. Reduce costs 2. Protect consumers 3. Provide affordable choices 4. Not add to the federal deficit. There’s not a chance in hell it will do even one of those things, much less all of them. LINK

The newly svelte Rush was in Los Angeles this week to record a part for an upcoming episode of Family Guy. He said that the story is about Brian the dog becoming a huge fan of his radio show. He didn’t want to reveal much but he did share one scene where Brian suggested they tell the world Nancy Pelosi is a crack addict. Sounds funny … and maybe true. Rush also said that two different writers on the show came up to him at different times to tell him they were closet conservatives. Maybe there’s hope for Hollywood after all. But probably not. LINK

All hail the supreme leader! Just like the soviets and the nazis before him, Obama knows the power of branding. He creates a new logo for everything that comes down the line. A couple weeks ago they introduced the flying wing O with a multitude of faceless zombie drones following after it. The recovery.org road sign with its hammer and sickle like imagery is everywhere. And now they’ve introduced the new battle eagle O in support of their fight for healthcare. Whoever is making these logos needs to take his book of Third Reich imagery back to the library. It’s just too easy to picture this thing flying on a flag behind Hitler’s head. Can you imagine if Bush would have brandished his campaign W on everything once he got into the White House? The liberal press would have gone nuts. Obama is playing it commie-style and don’t let anyone try to convince you otherwise.

These arrogant senators think they’re royalty. How dare the common man raise their voices to be heard. Don’t they know he has their best interests in mind? Speaker after speaker at the town hall took Bawney to task. They were extremely articulate and well informed. Their substantive questions were met with the usual dem talking points and lies. So the crowd would boo every time Bawney went into one of his condescending diatribes. And man, could Bawney not take it. He spent 90% of the meeting pounding his wittle fists and yelling at every one to stop yelling. It’s priceless. We haven’t found a comprehensive clip so google it and just watch a few.

And now the left-most of the lefties are going bat sh*t crazy cuz he’s giving up the public option. They’re too dumb to realize the co-ops are the same thing with a different name. And even if they do take it out for the moment, they’ll stick it back in next year. The big question is how will the Dems react to this unexpected opposition? Will they go to their usual playbook and pile on the name-calling and personal attacks? Maybe call them Hippy Hitlers? Or MaryJane Mobs? Doubtful. They save all their pet names and hate speech for us average Americans. LINK

Frum is a worthless weasel. He calls himself a “calm” conservative (whatever that is) so he can get invited on tv shows to bad mouth real conservatives. He has a ridiculous website that’s laughably called newmajority.com. One way this shameless tv whore gets attention is to bad mouth Mark Levin and Rush Limbaugh every chance he gets. But now he’s gone too far. He was talking to slime merchant Billy Moyers this week and claimed Rush Limbaugh called Obama a nazi and that Mark Levin is responsible for town hall attendees bringing guns to rallies. Both claims are out and out lies. When Pelosi called town hall protestors nazis Rush pointed out that democrats have more in common with nazis than conservatives. He was simply commenting on Pelosi’s name calling hate speech. He never called Obama a nazi. And Mark, of course, never told anyone to take up arms against the president. He said Obama is at war with the American people in a political sense, not a literal one. David Frum is a dishonest disgusting puke who owes Mark, Rush and the whole country an apology. LINK

A 23-year-old University of Colorado student managed to break through the carefully choreographed ObamaCare town hall meeting to ask Obama a real question. He wanted to know how private insurance could possibly compete or even survive against a state controlled entity that doesn’t have to make a profit or pay taxes. Obama condescendingly said he liked the questioner’s chutzpah. Then went on to give the feeble answer “I think there are ways we can address those competitive issues.” Sounds like he’s got it all figured out, huh? The truth is he knows a public co-op would kill off the private insurance industry within five years leaving us all on the government dole. In an interview after the meeting Zach said he wasn’t satisfied with the president’s non-answer. He added “Medicaid and Social Security are bankrupting the country and we’re supposed to put more faith in the government? If you can’t ride a bike don’t hop on a motorcycle, you know?” Well said, Mr. Lahn. LINK

A new propaganda website has popped up from the WH that has a series of videos that supposedly dispel ObamaCare “myths.” Of course it’s a load of crap but if you look at the bottom right corner of the page you’ll see a section entitled “We Want to Hear From You.” This takes you to a contact form where you can turn in evil-doers who speak ill of ObamaCare. They try to cover themselves by saying not to turn in personal info or email addresses without consent, but they don’t mean it. What other purpose could this form serve?

But even in the face of these overwhelming odds, the power of Conservatism still gets results. The average Americans speaking out town hall meeting has slowed ObamaCare to a crawl and put Obama and the dems on defense. Sarah Palin single handedly forced the dems to remove the “death panel” references in their bill. And, it’s just been announced on Drudge that Obama has closed down flag@whitehouse.gov. So, don’t be discouraged by Obama’s slander and the media’s hate speech. Just let it inspire you to do even more. You have a right to be heard and you are being heard.

Here’s a photo of BHO looking at the only thing in America that’s bigger than his ego. He’s taking a week off to ponder the best way to trick the American people into going along with his ObamaCare travesty. Over the weekend White House officials started floating the idea of replacing the government run option with insurance co-ops. These co-ops would supposedly be privately held non-profit companies bankrolled by our taxes and regulated by the federal government. In other words, it’s the government option with a different name. It would still be designed to run private insurance out of business and have us all in the government plan within five years. Obama thinks you are so incredibly stupid that you won’t see through this ruse. But we know better. Obama’s ideas are as vast and empty as the big canyon he’s posing by. LINK

Presidents appoint czars to oversee specials issues. They serve at the discretion of the president, which means they don’t have to answer to anyone. With the addition of the new Pay Czar, who will dictate how much companies can pay their employees, BHO now has a grand total of 22. Most presidents have a few, maybe half a dozen. Dem Senator Robert Byrd has described this practice as a power grab by BHO. He says those jobs should rightfully be overseen by elected officials.

Former Alaska Governor and one-time Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin is constantly ridiculed by the Democrats and their pals in the leftist media. They call her a rube, a quitter, an idiot. They make fun of the way she talks. They dismiss every word that floats from her sexy mouth. They hope that if they keep marginalizing her she’ll go away. Well, it’s not working. Sarah Palin has managed to crush one of the more horrific elements of the Senate’s health care reform bill, the “Death Panel”. They said she was nuts. They said the atrocities she envisioned could never happen. Then they stripped it from the bill. With a just a couple Facebook posts, Mrs. Palin shined a light on the cockroaches in the senate and they scattered for cover. Brain dead liberals will continue to savage her, and she will continue to expose them for the vermin they are. Give ‘em hell, Sarah! LINK

While Gibbs hems and haws, Garrett skillfully turns the exchange into a subtle slam on the White House’s recent comments about the spread of misinformation in the public debate about Obamacare. Thoroughly outmatched, Gibbs has no choice but to go along with him. Well done Mr. Garrett! LINK

There was one revealing moment in the ABC Obama Show. During a town hall meeting, a doctor asked Obama if he would promise that his family would only get the services allowed under the new government insurance plan. Obama would not promise and added, “If it’s my family I always want them to get the very best care.” Surprise, surprise. Obamacare is good enough for the common folk but not the elites. In a just America, that one answer alone would be enough to doom Obamacare. LINK

Whoever said Michelle is a giant among women was telling the truth. Here’s a picture of her just before she ground up the Italian President’s bones to make her bread. Early reports claim the Italian first lady narrowly escaped by using one of Michelle’s shoes as a boat to float downstream. Just look at those legs! Her left thigh alone must weigh more than Obama. She looks like a two-ton banana that sprouted legs and lumbered into the presidential palace looking for an all-you-can-eat buffet. “Quick, hide the yeasty rolls!

Not so long ago, The United States of America decided to elect a black guy (OK, half black. Whatever.) to the highest office in the land because it felt good and was historic and all that jazz. So far, that decision is working out great if you’re comfortable with euthanizing old people. The same historic, feel-good mentality that brought us President Obama now gives us our newest Supreme Court Justice, Sonya Sotomayor, the first Hispanic to sit on the highest court in the land. Unless you count Benjamin Cardozo, of course. Sure, the majority of her decisions ruled on by the High Court were reversed. And sure, she once said publicly that the courts are where policy is made. Oh, and she may or may not use actual “laws” to come to her decisions. What’s important here is that she isn’t an evil, white male. Let’s hope this feel-good story doesn’t get all creepy and weird like Obama’s. LINK

During Obama’s propaganda party last night he accused doctors of performing unnecessary operations for profit. He also said they were incapable of recommending generic medicine for their patients. It’s a basic tool of the left to demonize their opponents. But this is a pretty tough pill to swallow. Will Americans really believe their doctors are out to get them? That the government will be better and more-trustworthy at making these decisions? Obama repeatedly says government intervention will keep the healthcare industry honest. Is anyone really buying this bull? No one is less trustworthy than the government. Obama also name checked the Mayo Clinic, insinuating that they support his efforts. He perpetuates this lie even though they have harshly condemned the bill. Obama is so arrogant and conceited that he actually thinks he knows better than your own doctor. Let’s hope he gets a big dose of reality when this bill goes down in flames. LINK

The White House instructed Dems to “Punch back harder.” Obama told followers “to get angry” and “to get in their faces.” Obama sent out an email call to arms and loaded town hall meetings with paid union thugs. Obama got elected as the great uniter but has proven to be the great divider. There wasn’t one incidence of violence at a town hall meeting until Obama instructed his goons to literally fight back against those who dare practice freedom of speech. Just watch this video that shows the tail end of Obama’s union thugs pushing a conservative African-American man to the ground. Check out the brave woman who puts herself between the man on the ground and the union guy who had at least 200 pounds on her. Who knows what would’ve happened if the thugs hadn’t noticed the cameras? They might have sent the man to his grave instead of the hospital. As Rush Limbaugh has pointed out, it is the height of hypocrisy that a president who made his name in community organizing has no tolerance for those who community organize against him. More and more Obama is showing America who he really is – a small and petty man who is far more violent and dangerous than any of us could have imagined. LINK

Watch the linked video to see a supposed listening session about concerns over ObamaCare. The AARP rep is rude to the attendees from the outset and arrogantly talks down to them as if they were children. She seethes with open contempt for the people she claims to represent. After cutting people off and refusing to listen to anyone she waddles her fat a$$ out of the meeting. The meeting goes on in an orderly fashion until she returns a few minutes later to remove the microphone from the hands of a concerned citizen. So much for respecting your elders. It’s time all you seniors sacrifice that 10% discount at Denny’s and rip up your AARP cards. LINK

Nancy sure ratchets up the rhetoric quickly. Only a couple days ago she called ObamaCare opposers the “Brooks Brothers Brigade.” We don’t know what town hall meetings she’s going to but the citizens we’ve seen wear t-shirts and fanny-packs. That baseless smear didn’t work so then she called them “Astroturf.” Apparently this was very funny to Democrat pseudo-intellectuals but no one else knew what the hell she was talking about. Next she called them “mobs” and today she’s calling them Nazis. She claims they carry swastikas although there are no photos or support for this claim whatsoever. Word on K Street is she plans to call you protestors either “hell-fire demons with laser-beam eyes” or “a bunch of really barky dogs that smell bad” tomorrow.

Obama is trying to counter the spontaneous uprising against ObamaCare by getting back to his organizing roots.

Join his group and you will receive an extra special email directly from “President Barack Obama.” How thrilling for you! It says lots of inspiring things like “This is the moment our movement was built for” and “We’ve got to get out there, fight the lies and set the record straight.” Apparently, Org for Am is putting together thousands of events this month and they need enthusiastic supporters to show up in droves.

Dear Obama,
You have severely underestimated the American people. It’s not surprising considering your open disdain for this country and its citizens. You thought we’d go quietly and follow you off the cliff, but we’re not as stupid as you think. Sure, you fooled a slight majority of the population into believing your empty platitudes about “Change.” But as soon as people started to realize your idea of change really meant imposing socialism on America, your popularity began to plummet. It’s taken about 8 months for people to wake up but less than half of the country now supports you. And as for your agenda, it’s even less popular. You took the American people for chumps. You believed we were fat, lazy and stupid. You thought it would be easy to destroy us from within. You were wrong. We know the truth about ObamaCare. All we have to do is listen to your own words. Over a period of time you plan to eliminate private insurance and move to a single payer government plan. If that were implemented you would have control over every aspect of our lives. But it ain’t gonna happen. The American people have been awakened and they will not allow you to “change” this country any further. In your mind you think the ends justify the means. You childishly believe we can achieve a socialist utopia and once everyone sees how wonderful it is, they will forgive and even thank you for imposing it on us. But America isn’t some banana republic ripe for the picking. As much as you may hate it, this country was founded on principles of freedom and it runs deep in our blood. You are not a king or a dictator who gets to impose his will on us. You are just a citizen, no better and no worse than any other. This is a representative government and you are not representing the will of the people. Feel free to try to convince us your way is better by playing in the arena of civil discourse and free speech. But the lying and strong-arm tactics have to stop. The American people will not allow it. It’s time for you to stand down Mr. President. We have rejected ObamaCare and the sooner you realize that the better it will be for all of us.
Sincerely,
The Daily Instigator

The DNC has laid out a new plan to smear and malign those who oppose Obamacare. They intend to paint you as members of a radical minority who have been paid by the insurance companies to disrupt town hall meetings. They call you “angry protesters” and label you as “mobs.” It’s all an attempt to marginalize and discredit you. Of course, all these efforts will backfire and only serve to enrage you further. 65% of Americans oppose ObamaCare so we’re not talking about a fringe minority here. The truth is, the supporters of ObamaCare are the real fringe minority. The Obama regime will become victims of their arrogance as opposition continues to grow every day. Just listen to this quote from an Obama drone “To be sure, Drudge asserts a certain level of influence. But I think it is fair to say Obama exerts a little bit more.” We’ll see about that. Read this Huffington Post article to get the lowdown on their plans to discredit you and curtail your right to free speech. LINK

The liberals are so upset about the Obama/Joker poster. Any sort of mockery was okay as long as it was about George Bush but they freak out when someone makes fun of their supreme leader. So Rush suggested someone write a book entitled “Barack Obama Is A Big-Eared Idiot.” This, of course, is in reference to Al Franken’s book “Rush Limbaugh Is A Big Fat Liar.” No liberals had a problem with that. And they don’t mind when an art exhibit has a stamp of Bush with a gun to his head. But what if the tables were turned and it BHO with a gun to his head? They would blow their tops. There’s a huge double standard at work here and cheers to Rush for being brave enough to point it out. LINK

The White House released a ridiculous little piece of video propaganda yesterday. It supposedly sets the record straight about Obama’s position on private insurance. They claim the video Drudge posted of Obama saying he intends to eliminate private insurance has been creatively edited and manipulated. If that were true you’d expect them to show you the original video so we can see how his statements were taken out of context. But they don’t go there. Instead they show several recent, nonrelated clips of Obama saying he won’t eliminate private insurance as if that’s some kind of proof. We know he lies and that’s the problem! The WH video only helps to cement the fact that Obama speaks out of both sides of his mouth. They expect to you to blindly believe what he’s saying today and ignore when he said the exact opposite yesterday. Absolutely pathetic. LINK
