Sarah Palin – 2012

admin — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 14:41:21 +0000

Article by Roger Simon of Politico is a must read. Link is below in the usual spot.

Some things that he wrote about in this article remind me of what the Democratic Party did under George W. Bush. Namely, underestimate the fellow with insults that in the end backfire on you. Hence, all the negative things that they(i.e the Democratic hacks) have said about Sarah Palin is going to backfire on them.

George was a drunk. Not a great college student-how can he be a good president? He froze when America was attacked. I will point out to the reader that he was in front of a classroom of schoolkids and news cameras. The political hacks would seem to indicate that President Bush should be jumping up and down in a panic shouting orders and running back and forth across the front of the school room.

Hence, the disapproving looks down Democratic noses towards the gun-toting, pitbull in lipstick, white trash MILF from the icelands of Alaska.

But take a look at recent polls. 46% to 46% tie with President Obama in a hypothetical 2012 election. Personally, I think Sarah Palin would be better off to wait until 2016 and beyond. But that might not happen. This is something we just have to see play out before us.

She connects with the Tea party movement.

And BOTH political parties are afraid of this movement. Republicans are trying to direct this wave of voters into their corner… However, I need to remind people that the mascot of the movment might as well be the rattlesnake! See all those “Don’t Tread on Me” flags. You want a rattlesnake to box you into a corner do you?

Barracuda and rattlesnakes… Obama – look at what you have created!

BP Says it Stopped the Oil Finally

admin — Fri, 16 Jul 2010 02:50:07 +0000

After 85 days and 180+ million gallons of crude oil and methane released into the Gulf of Mexico, BP released the news that they had finally stopped the flow of oil! They said that at 3:25 pm EST, the last of three values were closed on the 75-ton call. Now they are into a 48-hour wait and see period to see if the cap will hold or not.

But it is just a temporary fix. BP still is depending on the relief well that is closing in of the original pipe.

Bells Tolling for Democrats? Charles Djou(R) wins Hawaii’s Special Election

admin — Sun, 23 May 2010 14:58:05 +0000

Charles Djou is now the winner of Hawaii’s 1st Congressional District defeating Democrats Colleen Hanabusa (who got 31% of the vote) and Ed Case (with 28%). Djou won with 40% of the vote in the special mail-in election. As the original article for this post says, right on Obama’s home turf.

Congressionman Djou will now head off to Washington D.C. to take over the office of Democrat Neil Abercrombie. Abercrombie said the following, “I congratulate Mr. Djou. Serving in the United States House of Representatives, for whatever period of time, is a great honor and even greater responsiblity. The majority of voters in the district supported Democratic candidates in this special election. I am confident that a Democrat will win the congressional race in the general election.”

Hanabusa and Case both vowed to keep on fighting against Djou in the primary race in Novemeber. While the victor in this election, Charles Djou is still considered to be an underdog for the general election. Hanabusa and Case together has 59% of the vote.

You Tell Him Neil! Atta boy!

Drudge had this linked to an article on The Politico.com. It appears that the first man on the moon is a bit ticked off with the current POTUS (President of the United States)-one Barrack H. Obama.

The article by Patrick Gavin states that NBC were able to get a copy of the letter written by Neil Armstron and it was signed by James Lovel (Apollo 13 commander) and Eugene Cernan (Apollo 17 commander). Former astronaut Neil Armstrong has issued a strongly worded rebuke of President Barack Obama, criticizing the president for proposed revisions to the U.S.’ space program. Below is the text of the letter and article by Patrick Gavin.

Begin Quote: Armstrong, along with astronauts James Lovell and Eugene Cernan, called the proposal “devastating” in a letter obtained by NBC News. Read below for the full text:

“The United States entered into the challenge of space exploration under President Eisenhower’s first term, however, it was the Soviet Union who excelled in those early years,” the letter begins. “Under the bold vision of Presidents Kennedy, Johnson, and Nixon, and with the overwhelming approval of the American people, we rapidly closed the gap in the final third of the 20th century, and became the world leader in space exploration. …

“When President Obama recently released his budget for NASA, he proposed a slight increase in total funding, substantial research and technology development, an extension of the International Space Station operation until 2020, long range planning for a new but undefined heavy lift rocket and significant funding for the development of commercial access to low earth orbit.

“Although some of these proposals have merit, the accompanying decision to cancel the Constellation program, its Ares 1 and Ares V rockets, and the Orion spacecraft, is devastating.

“America’s only path to low Earth orbit and the International Space Station will now be subject to an agreement with Russia to purchase space on their Soyuz (at a price of over 50 million dollars per seat with significant increases expected in the near future) until we have the capacity to provide transportation for ourselves. The availability of a commercial transport to orbit as envisioned in the President’s proposal cannot be predicted with any certainty, but is likely to take substantially longer and be more expensive than we would hope.

“It appears that we will have wasted our current ten plus billion dollar investment in Constellation and, equally importantly, we will have lost the many years required to recreate the equivalent of what we will have discarded.

For The United States, the leading space faring nation for nearly half a century, to be without carriage to low Earth orbit and with no human exploration capability to go beyond Earth orbit for an indeterminate time into the future, destines our nation to become one of second or even third rate stature. While the President’s plan envisages humans traveling away from Earth and perhaps toward Mars at some time in the future, the lack of developed rockets and spacecraft will assure that ability will not be available for many years.

Without the skill and experience that actual spacecraft operation provides, the USA is far too likely to be on a long downhill slide to mediocrity. America must decide if it wishes to remain a leader in space. If it does, we should institute a program which will give us the very best chance of achieving that goal.

Neil Armstrong, Commander, Apollo 11

James Lovell, Commander, Apollo 13

Eugene Cernan, Commander, Apollo 17.

end quote.

The ‘Special’ briefing the mighty ‘Obama’ is planning to give at the Kennedy Space Center in a few days will be a finely crafted, and beautifully delivered by the Teleprompter-in-Chief – meaningless statement to send the American Space Program to the grave. That would be my WORST fear to come out of this special meeting. But like everyone else who believes in having a strong space program – we won’t get one in the end.

UPDATE: The National Space Society Blog has posted some of the things that President Obama will present to the nation’s space industry. Including a “scale down” Constellation vehicle. Use the link below to check out the entire article.

Hugo Chavez-Nukes & Rockets on his Christmas Wish List

admin — Sat, 03 Apr 2010 00:50:03 +0000

That fatso president of Caracas, Venezuela; talking with Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin today wants Venezuela to have both nuclear energy AND Space Technology!

Hugo Chavez is already on a buying binge from Russia getting additional tanks and aircraft. Plus they are making arrangments for the Russian oil firms to explore and pump out 450,000 barrels of oil a day from the Orinoco oil belt.

Quoting the article: Chavez said Moscow and Caracas would strengthen security ties to “continue increasing Venezuela’s defense capability” and move ahead with cooperation on nuclear energy. “We are not going to build the atomic bomb but we will develop nuclear energy for peaceful purposes. We have to prepare for the post-petroleum era,” Chavez said on Thursday.

Another interesting bit of news from the Reuters article: Since 2005, Venezuela has bought $4 billion worth of Sukhoi jet fighters, Mi-17 helicopters and Kalashnikov assault rifles. Chavez received more than $2 billion in loans for more Russian arms during his eighth visit to Moscow in September, including T-72 tanks and the S-300 advanced anti-aircraft missile system.

Well ain’t this nice of the Russians… they sent a Beriev amphibious jet plane to fight some forest fires in the scorched Avila mountains that overlook Caracas (now a new workers paradise with elctric blackouts happening more and more). Well, truth of the matter; I personally would like to see the US purchase some of these Russian amphib fire bombers.

But the final quote from the Reuters article: Chavez hopes Russian cooperation will reach as far as the space industry. “We could even install a satellite launcher,” he said on Thursday.

Not only NO, but I will add, HELL NO! Fatso Chavez with the means to generate nuclear energy (and find a way to build a few bombs at the same time) plus the means to launch same bombs. But I am affraid that this will come to pass with the current Obama/zombies party in charge of the White House and Congress.

Kill the Bill Michele Bachmann (R-Minn) At it Again

admin — Wed, 24 Mar 2010 14:27:46 +0000

Kill the Bill Representative Michele Bachmann (R-Minn), is at it again. She has presented H.R. 4309 which is a one-page bill to repeal the Democrats’ health “reform” monster that was ’signed’ into law this week. Her Declaration of Health Care Independence is a commitment to protect the rights of the American people to make their own helath decisions, reduce bureaucratic red-tape, decrease the multigeneration debt.

Speaking to WND reporter Chelsea Schilling, Rep Bachmann said the following, “I want to let people know that we hear you. We want this bill repealed, too, and we’re not just going to roll over and accept Obamacare. We’re not going to roll over and let Nancy Pelosi have her way because it was just a handful of Democrats leadership that pushed this bill onto the backs of 300 million Americans. We don’t have to accept this.”

On being asked if the health care bill can really be repealed, Rep Michele Bachmann stated, “It’s very difficult. I won’t put rose-colored glasses on. But 76% of the people in the United States have said that they don’t want this bill.”

Then she went on about this being the result of the Novemeber 2008 elections and the need for the Republican Party to put forward real conservative candidates, not “Conservative lites.” And for the 2012 elections, the need to have a really strong presidential candidate.

This is what WND saids her bill declaration contains:

We, therefore, the People and Representatives of the United States of America, do solemnly Publish and Declare that health care reform, as a matter of principle, must:

1. Protect as inviolate the vital doctor-patient relationship;

2. Reject any addition to the crushing national debt heaped upon all Americans;

3. Improve, rather than diminish, the quality of care that Americans enjoy;

4. Be negotiated publicly, transparently, with genuine accountability and oversight;

5. Treat private citizens at least as well as political officials;

6. Protect taxpayers from funding of abortion and abortion coverage;

7. Reject all new mandates on patients, employers, individuals or states;

8. Prohibit expansion of taxpayer-funded health care to those unlawfully present in the United States;

9. Guarantee Equal Protection under the law and the Constitution;

10. Empower, rather than limit, an open and accessible marketplace of health care choice and opportunity.

IN closing, this is what Rep Bachmann told WND: ”What is at stake is the survival of the finest health care the world has ever known,” Bachmann said. “We want to be able to continue that. We don’t want to allow ourselves to devolve into a social welfare state, but that’s clearly the president’s intention for us.”

She added, “Now it’s up to us to fight for our country, just like those who have gone before us. We have to be up for the battle.”

I have, since my discovery of Michele Bachmann, always been impressed with her passion for this country. Any long-time reader of my blog knows that I think she has her “Klingon On.” for the upcoming battle. For any new readers, when I mention someone has their “Klingon On,” its my attempt to impress upon the reader that the person in question has some steel in their backbone. Or if its a man, is sporting some solid brass ones. Or in her case, Re. Michele Bachmann has some brass ovaries of her own.

I’m glad that my own representative Randy Neugebauer (R-Tex) has discovered some steel in his own backbone. See that article with this link(http://www.theshanksdimension.com/2010/03/representative-randy-neugebauer-r-got-his-klingon-on/).

Representative Randy Neugebauer (R) got his Klingon On!

admin — Tue, 23 Mar 2010 00:47:43 +0000

I live in the district that is represented by Representative Randy Neugebauer (R). In the heat of battle on Capitol Hill, Randy shouted out “Baby Killer” at Michigan Democratic Rep Bart Stupak.

While personally, I am feed up with the whole debate over abortion (it has been going on for 40 of my 50 years of life) – I can never be more prouder than I am tonight on hearing about what he said and did last night. So lets give him a well deserved “Qapla’ ”

Later, Randy Neugebauer apolized to congressman Stupak. Quote: ”The House Chamber is a place of decorum and respect. The timing and tone of my comment last night was inappropriate.”

Stupak stated on Fox News about the recent political turmoil of ‘uncivilized’ behavior, “We’ve seen in the last year just total instability at times, whether it’s the president, myself or others are trying to speak or conduct themselves in a proper demeanor on the floor you always have this disrupted, uncivilized behavior.” (This was in reference to South Carolina Rep Joe Wilson shouting out “You lie!” to President Barack H. Obama last year during a speech before Congress.

Tea Party History Presented

admin — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 12:13:35 +0000

I found this excellant article by Nick Carey, Ed Stoddard & David Morgan or Reuters entitled “Brewing tensions between the Tea Party and GOP.” The particular article I read was posted on comcast.net.

January 2009, Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele discovered that he could not roll these upstarts over and co-opt them into the Republican Party. Listed below are some quotes that I pulled out of the article. But please visit the link to read the entire article…

Quote: Steele, RNC chairman since January 2009, had invited them to the plush Capitol Hill Club, built as a clubhouse for the party’s top brass next door to RNC headquarters.

According to several accounts, not long into the meeting JoAnn Abbott, an activist from Virginia who calls herself the ‘Tea Party Grandma,’ raised her hand to ask a question.

She asked about a web page on the RNC site where visitors could send their member of Congress a postcard with a tea bag. On the tag at the end of the string were the letters ‘RNC.’

“Respectfully, sir, while we do not have a trademark on the tea bag, you are well aware that people associate it with the Tea Party movement,” Abbott, 50, recalls saying to Steele. “If you co-opt that image, you damage our brand and weaken our movement.”

Lest there was any confusion, she added: “It does not belong to you, it belongs to us as an independent movement.”

Abbott said within an hour of the end of the meeting the page (www.teaparty.gop.com) was gone — and the Grand Old Party was finally aware of conservative frustrations she and others felt with Republican leadership.

“The GOP now knows we’re not asleep anymore,” Abbott told Reuters. “The giant has been awakened.” end quote.

Quote: More recently, Wierzbicki said the Republican Party has belatedly tried to woo Tea Partiers.

Some Republicans have openly courted the movement, especially Sarah Palin, McCain’s running mate in 2008. She gave the keynote speech at the Tea Party Convention in Nashville in early February. Organized by Tea Party Nation, the event was derided by some other Tea Party groups as being a GOP front.

“We like Sarah Palin, she’s one of us and she speaks to us,” said Tina Dupont of the Tea Party of West Michigan. “But she does not speak for us.” Her views were echoed by many.

Most Republicans are not so popular. “The Republican Party would like to take over the Tea Party and use it to gain power,” Tanya Bachand said. “It’s the other way around and they don’t know what’s coming.”

“Their reckoning is coming.” end quote.

Quote: Conservatives derisively call moderate Republicans RINOs — Republican In Name Only. They are angry at moderates over issues like immigration and the cap and trade climate bill. end quote.

Quote: Tea Party Democrats are a rarer breed. Tim Curtis, 53, is a former U.S. Marine who owns a UPS Store franchise and is a member of the Tampa 9.12 Project. He is running as a Democrat for U.S. Congress in Florida’s 11th district.

“There are those who believe in bigger, more costly and more intrusive government,” he said. “That’s not what this country was intended to be. The Tea Party movement cuts across party lines, as there’s more uniting us than separating us.”

According to the Ipsos/Reuters poll, while 49 percent of Republicans said they identify with the Tea Party movement only 11 percent of Democrats said the same. end quote.

Quote: The movement has its sights set on a number of RINOs in this year’s Senate races. They are backing Marco Rubio against Charlie Crist in Florida, Rand Paul (the son of Republican Congressman Ron Paul) against Trey Grayson in Kentucky, Mike Lee in Utah against incumbent Robert Bennett, Chuck DeVore against former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina in California and, last but not least, J.D. Hayworth against McCain.

“Many people in Arizona feel that John McCain has leaned across the aisle,” said Kathy Boatman, a member of the East Valley Tea Party in the Phoenix suburb of Gilbert. “But the only problem is that when he leans across the aisle … they pull him down, and sometimes flat on his face.”

At a Tea Party event in south Miami, everyone favored Rubio, who has a substantial lead over Crist in the polls.

“Charlie Crist is exactly what we don’t want,” said Nancy Meinhardt, a paralegal and a leading light in the Florida Tea Party movement. “He’s a Republican in name only, he’s not a conservative. It’s all a facade.” end quote.

Quote: Tea Party candidates did not fare well in the Texas primaries in early March, though James Henson, a politics professor at the University of Texas, said the state is a “low tax, low service, small government environment.”

“Texas is already Tea Party country,” he said. “You’d have to represent some fairly extreme views to push Republicans here further to the right.”

“In the midterms I wouldn’t be surprised to see Tea Party voters hold their noses and vote for the Republican candidates who won the primaries.” end quote.

Miss Me Yet (A waving Bush)? – Ahhh, No!

admin — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 23:31:35 +0000

At least not for what some Republicans are hoping for a ground swell to cast them back into office. The problem with that is that they (The Republicans) will miss read their ‘victory’ and go back to doing the stupid things that got them kicked out in the first place!

Wonderful article by Howard Rich (url is below, jsut copy and paste). Please read it. Towards the end of that article Mr. Rich wrote was a wonderful question and answer.

Quote: Was Bush a better steward of your tax dollars than Obama?

Yes – but that’s the problem. Getting mugged worse the second time around doesn’t absolve the first thief of his culpability.

The simple, unavoidable truth is that Bush and his GOP allies were fiscal liberals, and no amount of “Republican revisionism” can erase that fact. End Quote.

I think that those people who support the efforts of the group of Americans known as the Tea Party (or if your a Democrat, the insulting homosexual term Tea-Bagger), do not like where BOTH parties have taken this country too. In my view, it will take the Tea Party to get the Republicans into office in 2010 so there can be NO super majority in the Senate. Then let the GOP get a president elected in 2012.

I say this only to stop the slide of our country into socialism. For our society, our economy, the current (Socialist) Democrats must be removed from office so that they can do no more harm to this country – the one that they took a oath to preserve and protect when they entered office.

But past that point, the Tea Party will have to go it on its own as a third party and get rid of one (hell, get rid of both) current political parties. It is sad – but clear to me that the Baby Boomer generation has failed this country as far as the political leadership it has offered up. Sad to say, sadder for me since I am a Tail-End Charlie of that generation. But in point of fact, I always like to point out that since I was born after Sputnik, so I was a member of the first generation of the Space Age! And for those of you who do not know what Tail-End Charlie means, just google it. (OK, it means either the last aircraft in formation or the tail gunner on a bomber. Usually a British slang term).

Does Disagreement Equal Treason or not?

admin — Sun, 07 Feb 2010 19:35:50 +0000

This is what I responded to over a post done on Russian Navy Blog in regards to the following story: “Fascism in America: Heil Sarah! Teabaggers and the threat to Democracy.” Including some misspelled words – sorry about that.

Comment start:

Fine – So you hate the American people who disagree with your political point of view.

You insult them with the term “teabagger” once you start into Umberto Eco list instead of using the term “Tea Party.”

Item number 3 (Cult of action for action’s sake… distrust of the intellectual world). Let me say here that the intellectual world invites such critisms.

Yes, Cheney said Obama dithered over Afghanistan. Hummm, climate scientist “cooked” the books to try and prove that global warming is a fact. In fact, I think is more than likely we are about to go into another mini iceage. By the way, talk about the coming ice age began in the 1970s if I remember correctly. Nuclear Winter in the 1980s, etc. then in the 1990s, suddenly its “global warming?” The earth has been here for how long before us puny humans arrived on the scene?

I have noticed that item number 4 Disagreement is Treason for the past 20 years hold true no matter who is in the white house. Right now, Obama is in there. I disagree with the majority of his policies. Therefore, I must be a traitor go by this logic.

Quote “The teabaggers are part the neocon history rewrite project that turns the Founding Fathers into religious zealouts united by spiritual beliefs rather than a bunch of squabbling Diest free thinkers. Rather than seeing the American Revolutions as a modernist rebellion against monarchy and colonialist economics, the teabaggers believe the founding fathers marched in lockstep towards a medieval theocracy.” Despite what you may think, I thnk our fore fathers were more religious with the desire to protect the rights of the citizen from religious oppression. Too often I hear the left talk about seperation of church and state – well, that has become a religion in its own right it seems. I remember in my grade school or junior high classes that when this subject came up – it was about preventing the American government from establishing a “official” Church of America (i.e Church of England). But since the 1970s every effort hase been made to drive a wedge between government and (any) religious endeavor. No, I don’t see our fore fathers as religious zealouts or Diest thinkers. They did have a good grasp of what I will choose to call here as common sense.

Item number 6 (Appeal to a frustrated middle class). Well, I see that BOTH political parties play for the middle class and nothing really ever happens. The middle class remains screwed! And that leads into item 7 (Obsession with a plot). Birthers, ACORN haters, Census phobics, etc. So, you have a thing against the movie Red Dawn? I am affraid of Interpol having access to the USA without any American oversight to their activites within our own borders.

Item number 9 (life is permannent warfare, etc). Well, Ike warned us about the military idustrial complex. EVERY administration since 1960 has found itself some chicks**t confict to get this country involved in. Part of that was due to the cold war and the global chess match we and the USSR were playing. Supposely in the 1990s, that would have come to an end. Nope.

Its not until item nubmer 9 that you finally start using the term Tea party instead of tea bagger again. But I take you at your word about wanting to humilate some of your fellow citizens who disagree with you. Quote “We saw the contempt at the town halls where the teabaggers shouted down cancer survivors (and the occasional Jew). But also we saw Tancredo tell the teabaggers that they are the real citizens, and that other people have no idea what this country is about.” If you say so. I have never heard of this happening. I will not argue with you over it. OF the people that I have seen in the movment, this does not compute.

Item number 11 (Cult of Heroic Death). So, only those crazies who are a part of this movment would automatically be insane enough to engage in suicide bombings? HELLO! We’re Americans damn it! If it coems time to spill blood in the streets, it will not be that tactic. Ask yourself how YOU would go about another armed revolution in the United States. The people who live and work here. Americans as a whole do not have that suicide culture.

Item 13 (Ur-Fascism must be against “rotten” parliamentary government). I’m amazed that the dems did not steamroll Obama care through both houses of Congress and have President Obama sign it already. Same with Cap and Trade. The socialists have it made to remake America into a socialist country – so what stopped them. It sure as hell wasn’t the Republican Party! It was those crackpots in the Tea Party (sorry, you perfer the term teabagger).

You come down on folks like Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin. Your pretty much calling them Nazi Brown shirts (with or without the nazi part). Glenn Beck as John the Baptist. Come on, are you going off the deep end here? The only Messiah in these parts was the one the Main Stream Media put into office with slanted reporting in 2008 – that being President B.H. Obama.

And lets go back to item 14 for a moment (Ur-Fascism speaks Newspeak). BHO compaign team focus group the hell out of what words would appear the most to the American people. Hope and Change were the result. That was what got him into office.

But the MSM is losing control. They cannot keep putting lipstick on that Hope and Change pig forever. The LONGER the current crop of dems remain in Washington DC, the worse it will get.

But thankyou for making this posting. I would recommend that you add more labels to this particular post than what you already have. As in Tea Party, Socialism, Fascism, etc. Teabagger by itself will not do this any justice.
