Obama & the Regressives (If you Cannot Beat Them..Then Make Fun of Them)

The enormity of the arrogance, double standards and revisionist history pouring forth is disgusting. Pathetic sheep, even us, follow blindly without any ability to derail this mess…what call a few phone numbers to non-responsive Regressives and 3 RINO’s? That is it? An election, a few phone calls, some ranting. That is the extent of our ability to change this bizarre slide into chaos. I am disgusted with the process, the citizens and myself. I am angry and so god damn tired of that arrogant twit at the lectern I could puke.

Odd how the twit had to spend so much time disowning the mess, which makes me think he is already preparing the excuses for the failures yet to come our way….and the then need for Nanny or worse Big Brother to just take over to thwart the chaos and revolt. 

Would some one accurately write about Carter and Clinton and the legislation signed that allowed such shoddy housing finance practices. Yes, throw in the oversight fiasco of Bush, and the Banking greed, but lay it to what it really was….it is bad enough that Bush started the ball rolling in his best RINO way of the Neo…but please be totally honest here.

U.S. Conservatism (Compromise & Abandonment to Avoid a Worse Fate?)

Every Republican president can count on the conservatives eventually supporting whatever policies he dishes out for one simple and profound reason: they hate the Left more than they hate the state.

Rockwell makes my stomach turn because he is right. I have sitting in the rear compartment of this train ride trusting. Wondering but trusting. Ignoring naysayers on the Right, because the true ‘enemy’ is always the Left. Slowly, much too slowly, I have become aware that while I study and confirm the Left’s evil intent…a progressive slide toward the Nanny State, there is a traitor in my midst, our midst. Call it Neo, Moderate, Liberal..hell, I don’t know anymore. All I do know is I feel betrayed in so many ways. 

I cut my teeth with WFB. I read everything and believed in the evil of the State. I readily accepted the threat of Communism. I never questioned much beyond that. Now things are much more complicated. I still fear the Left’s intent. I am immensely pissed at the arrogance of the Left, partly fueled by the stupidity of the Neo’s and myself. 

 Conservatives were urging the government to be expansionist and aggressive abroad, and smaller at home. This is like attempting to train the python to be a cuddly pet. The earlier anti-FDR Old Right understood the relationship between the welfare state and the warfare state: they are essentially inseparable, especially in the American context. A regime scheming to overthrow governments abroad will hardly hesitate to dominate companies and communities in America. There is also the problem of political dynamics. If you are really dedicated to the warfare state, what are you willing to sacrifice to get it? Conservatives have been willing to give up their entire domestic agenda.

Daily Kos ‘Our long national nightmare is over’ (Wake Up Republicans…Do You Remember How To Articulate?)

From The Daily Kos: 

“The great undoing has begun:

Obama Positions Himself to Quickly Reverse Bush Actions on Environmental, Social Issues

By Ceci Connolly and R. Jeffrey Smith
Washington Post Staff Writers
Sunday, November 9, 2008

‘Transition advisers to President-elect Barack Obama have compiled a list of about 200 Bush administration actions and executive orders that could be swiftly undone to reverse the president on climate change, stem cell research, reproductive rights and other issues, according to congressional Democrats, campaign aides and experts working with the transition team.

A team of four dozen advisers, working for months in virtual solitude, set out to identify regulatory and policy changes Obama could implement soon after his inauguration. The team is now consulting with liberal advocacy groups, Capitol Hill staffers and potential agency chiefs to prioritize those they regard as the most onerous or ideologically offensive, said a top transition official who was not permitted to speak on the record about the inner workings of the transition.’     

‘Elections, my friends, have consequences.’     http://www.dailykos.com/

‘In my view, the Republicans’ problem doesn’t lie with their leadership, it lies in their inability in recent years to articulate conservative principles and apply them to legislation in a way that the American people find persuasive. To a great extent, their ability to do this was undermined by the fact that some Republicans were more interested in cementing their own popularity through spending increases. Being in the minority may well free Republicans to go back to taking principled, conservative stands on legislation. If so, good leadership will be important, but so will having a number of articulate, persuasive spokesmen to frame the issues and the make the case for the Republican side in a way that resonates with the public.’ http://www.powerlineblog.com/

Judging from the above nugget at the Daily Kos, the Repub’s better get their collective shit together and quick. If they plan on standing around to articulate Alexander Hamilton and Reagan….they are pathetically out of practice. Dump Boehner. This is the game…the big one. If you are not upto it…stand aside, if you have one damn McCain bone in your body…stand aside. If you haven’t guessed, unless you are going to build a kickass coalition with Blue Dogs, any bipartisan BS or compromise is not in the cards for the Regressives…play that game and they will knee cap you and then we will tar and feather you. Fight or get the hell out of the way.  Excuse the asshole with the sign….but, he isn’t going to care about your sensibilities, is he now?

Trading Bush for Obama (Trading Moonshine for Toxic Waste)

Denial

Denial

“If we find our government in all its branches rushing headlong… into the arms of monarchy, if we find them violating our dearest rights, the trial by jury, the freedom of the press, the freedom of opinion, civil or religious, or opening on our peace of mind or personal safety the sluices of terrorism, if we see them raising standing armies, when the absence of all other danger points to these as the sole objects on which they are to be employed, then indeed let us withdraw and call the nation to its tents. But while our functionaries are wise, and honest, and vigilant, let us move compactly under their guidance, and we have nothing to fear. Things may here and there go a little wrong. It is not in their power to prevent it. But all will be right in the end, though not perhaps by the shortest means.” - Thomas Jefferson to William Duane, 1811.

Found this quite appropriate passage of Jefferson’s at a flyfishing site (http://busterwantstofish.com/) I link too at my ff site (swittersb weblog). This is maybe indicative of many today…maybe myself. Bearings seem lost. Principles of liberty have been abandoned. But, unlike some of them, perhaps Buster, I sure as hell am not going to jump from a band of Neo-Cons to a flaming Socialist, who is surrounded by Anarchist-Marxists, Black Nationalists, Socialists and Neo’s. Talk about jumping from the frying pan into the fire. Bush-Cheney did a variety of things that drastically and probably, most probably, steered us into costly commitments and opened us to unnecessary stress as a nation. However, Patriot Act angst aside, they had done little to really alter our liberty aside from monstrous spending (ala the big govt. mindset of Neo’s). So, now that people like Buster have bought into the ‘I Hate Bush, Cheney, McCain, Palin’ propaganda (and it is cool to rant isn’t it?) their alternative is voting for Obama-Biden. Seriously, that is amazingly moronic (I like that phrase). Yes, we have been played by Liberals and Neo’s and the choices now are no less spectacular. It is a choice of a lesser evil scenario and IT IS NOT OBAMA for sure. The Buster’s cherish their Liberty, yet appear perched to jump off the cliff to support the One that will slowly (not abruptly) smother their freedoms. The Regressive Party will use a super majority to suffocate the life out of any vestiges of right minded thinking except the beneficial Neo’s. Study the origins of many of the Neo’s…especially their mindsets of foreign policy thoughts v. cultural policy thoughts. If it makes sense…envision Obama suddenly deciding he is a Conservative because he is obsessed with Kenya’s survival. Obama does not change his socialist-liberal mindset and spends like a drunken fat cat. Yet, he is quick to flex power. That is where Neo’s came from. No different…Kenya instead of Israel. Liberal and power hungry with an arsenal at hand. GW was no different than his father…certainly not a true Conservative valuing freedom within the borders. Reject Bush, reject Neo’s, reject lazy Republicans. But do not buy into Regressives and Obama. Make the hard choice for McCain, another Moderate and then work like hell to change the mind set of your friends and the country. If people vote for Obama and his concept of Change….the damage will be too sustained and pervasive to un-Change. The system has been prepped for more Lego’s to be added and added….this time with Super Glue. No dismantling allowed!    

Wear your PFD!

Wear your PFD!

An alternative must emerge. And, younger ranting, free spirits, who seemingly value their freedom to roam and rant, better wake up to the dangers of hating one person so badly that they jump in bed with one badly infected whore. Buster might be better off to study the Paleo concepts, that value his Liberty unless he bought into the failed Euro Socialist models. 
 

 

 

 

REGRESSIVES IN OHIO USE SYSTEM TO DISCREDIT JOE THE PLUMBER..ARE YOU OK WITH THAT?

“They’ve got a fraud-friendly Secretary of State, infestations of out-of-state students and Obama workers sabotaging electoral integrity, and now…government employees or accomplices thereof rifling through the records of Joe the Plumber immediately after the last presidential debate.
You’ll remember that a national media uproar ensued after it was discovered that State Department contractors had snooped through Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and John McCain’s passports. (Later, it turned out that the CEO of a company whose employee was involved in Passport-gate was a consultant to the Barack Obama campaign.)
Will the privacy champs come to Joe the Plumber’s defense?”

And, this is great! It will be lost on any Leftist or Liberal, but watch Biden lie his ass off in this interview. Seriously, lie after blatant lie and deflection back to the Obama Ace in Hand: deflect to Bush…really all they have done and the non-thinking and easily, emotionally manuevered have bought into this. And, you worry about Palin? Seriously? This man is pathetic. Obama, Biden, Pelosi? Shit. The comfort to lie and smirk. Toxic Waste. Revolt(ing)!

   http://michellemalkin.com/2008/10/25/best-interview-of-joe-biden-ever/ 

Read the comments section for examples of the realities now. The complete inability to grasp ACORN, Voter Reg. Fraud, certainly Fannie Mae involvement etc. Biden is a sputtering, pompous Regressive lying his ass off. The questions were no different in tone than any msm interview of Palin or McCain. How dare anyone question the distinguished windbag…Lunchpail Joe. There truly is a great divide in this country. The Lemmings are staged and ready. Stay out of their way.

Bailout Blues…Sound the Bugle says Newt

Gingrich writes:

Imagine that the political balance of power in Washington were different.  

If this were a Democratic administration the Republicans in the House and Senate would be demanding answers and would be organizing for a “no” vote . . . . But because this gigantic power shift to Washington and this avalanche of taxpayer money is being proposed by a Republican administration, the normal conservative voices have been silent or confused.

It’s time to end the silence and clear up the confusion.

At least Repub’s argue sides within the party and the Conservative philosophies…unlike the Demwit’s Lockstep-Group  Think. Robots don’t get confused or off course…that is the beauty of programming.
