$150 billion worth of wealth redistribution and counting chickenheads before they’re hatched

Sunday, October 12th, 2008

Oh goody, the Dems are planning on giving away another $150 billion worth of wealth redistribution.

Acting as if Obama has already been elected Pelosi is making plans on spending more money. I wonder if she’ll give fellow Democrat lawmakers permission not to vote on this bill like she did the bailout.

After consulting with Barack Obama, Democratic leaders are likely to call Congress back to work after the election in hopes of passing legislation that would include extended jobless benefits, money for food stamps and possibly a tax rebate, officials said Saturday.

The bill’s total cost could reach $150 billion, these officials said.

Obama campaign paid $800000 to ACORN offshoot

Thursday, October 9th, 2008

Looks like Obama got caught cooking the books.  They were paying the ACORN offshoot to “get out the vote for them” Obama told the FEC they were just doing some polling. Now they have to correct the FEC record. Something tells me this won’t be all over the news tonight.

 The Obama campaign response: “It’s ok, really, this sort of thing happens all the time.”

“Accidently misrepresented” …yeah right. Liberal call less than this a lie. Don’t forget, they said Bush was lying when he stated the fact that Brittish intelligence reported Hussein was seeking yellow cake uranium… But that was a couple years ago, this is 2008. Liberal standards change from hour to hour.

RNC:

“Barack Obama’s failure to accurately report his campaign’s financial records is an incredibly suspicious situation that appears to be an attempt to hide his campaign’s interaction with a left-wing organization previously convicted of voter fraud. For a candidate who claims to be practicing ‘new’ politics, his FEC reports look an awful lot like the ‘old-style’ Chicago politics of yesterday.”

Uncommitted voters

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

Let’s hear it for the “uncommitted voters” over at Self-composed.

If you are reading this, and you still haven’t made up your mind. If you’re still on the fence. If you are still not sure who would be better for the country, do me a favor, do the right thing and don’t bother. Just stay home on Wednesday November 5th, stay home on super-Wednesday and don’t go out and vote. Leave that to those of us who are informed.

Debate fallout

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

Initial thoughts:

Tom Brokaw sucks and should never moderate another debate.

Did McCain really call Obama’s Freddie and Fannie friends as croneys?

If Obama is elected, he’ll have to answer for a lot of broken promises.

Malkin almost seems extra feisty tonight:

Obama is back to Bush-bashing. Drink. Now, we’re just rehashing last week’s debate.

Worthless.

McCain-Bush, McCain-Bush.

Sarah Palin was so much more effective at defusing this talking point in her debate.

McCain is doing…nothing.

Except: “My friends, my friends, my friends, my friends.”

FoxNews poll - big win for McCain - 86%

Some fancy CBS poll where they asked 516 “uncommitted” voters - 40% said Obama won.

Oh, ok - the rest of the truth is, the poll numbers said only 26% saw it as a win for McCain. The rest thought it was a draw.

CNN reports Obama is lying about Ayers - video

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

H/T to Dr. Bruce at Sermonzone

Wow. CNN even. With CNN willing to expose Obama he has troubling times ahead.

Hot Air has the video. The video of the CNN segment details pretty well the connections between Obama and Ayers.

Obama can’t make up his mind about multitasking

Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

From Self-composed:

Obama is preemtively countering all scrutiny of his past elbow rubbing with angry extremists, unrepentent terrorist bombers, and other radicals by launching a new ad and talking point campaign that goes something like: “we have to talk about the economy, and only the economy, because talking about anything else is just trying to change the subject and a distraction.”

What happened to “we can walk and chew gum at the same time?” Just days ago Obama didn’t want to be distracted from his campaign by actually doing something about the economy problem. He didn’t call one legislator prior to the first vote in the House to secure support for the bailout bill.

Senator Obama didn’t mind distractions yesterday when he set up a web site and released a 13 minute ad about the Keating Five.

There is a definite need to talk about both the economy and either candidate’s background, character, and judgement. I want to hear what McCain plan to do exactly and I want to hear exactly what Obama plans to do to fix this mess, but we need to know what kind of person we’re putting in the White House to. The president manages more than the economy.

McCain finally calls Obama a liar

Monday, October 6th, 2008

It’s about time.  I wonder if this conventional wisdom that going negative is bad is all that conventional or wise?

The GOP presidential candidate told a campaign rally: “Sen. Obama has accused me of opposing regulation to avert this crisis. I guess he believes if a lie is big enough and repeated often enough it will be believed.”

In some of the harshest language yet, McCain said the campaign comes down to a simple question: Who is the real Barack Obama?

McCain drew the loudest cheers when he said the Democrat has written two memoirs but “he’s not exactly an open book.”

Obama is right - a lie will be believed if it is repeated enough. Obama is no fool. He’s observed how things work and his handlers have probably wrongly assured him he can get away with lies. That is about to change I hope.

Secret Service detail for Joe

If Joe the (unlicensed, divorced, gasp Christian) plumber is going to undergo the kind of media and moonbat scrutiny the candidates do (reporters haven’t been this busy digging through trash cans since they got back from Alaska) shouldn’t he maybe have a secret service detail too?

Obama lied - he was a member of the Socialist “New Party” in Illinois - proof

EarthFrisk has just posted  Amazon.com to Barack: You Are a Socialist, We’ve proven it!. This is political blogging at its best. Obama has denied being a member of this socialist party, but the proof found in the archives shows otherwise.

Robin Hood didn’t steal from Plumbers

Obama is no Robin Hood.

How to cut taxes for those who don’t pay them

Short answer: Wealth redistribution.
Shorter answer: Welfare.
How Obama’s vote-buying 95% tax cut scheme works.
One of Barack Obama’s most potent campaign claims is that he’ll cut taxes for no less than 95% of “working families.”

First, the bait and switch:
There are several sleights of hand, but the most creative is to redefine the meaning of “tax cut.”
For the [...]
