Alvin Greene's Attack Ad Smears Jim Demint as Evil, UnAmerican, Bigot and a Maniac

Read the text behind Demint at the beginning of the video ad. It is tempting to call Democratic Party's nominee for Senate in South Carolina, Alvin Green, the most embarrassing Democrat ever. But that threshold is so high...

Fail: Obama pushed unemployment benefits extension at news conference by featuring woman convicted of drug fraud


It looks like President Obama should have completed a background check on the three unemployed Americans he featured at his Virginia news conference where he pushed for an unemployment benefits extension. One was convicted of a drug charge a month before she lost her job. Here is what President obama had to say about her.
"We need to extend unemployment compensation benefits for women like Leslie Macko, who lost her job at a fitness center last year, and has been looking for work ever since. Because she's eligible for only a few more weeks of unemployment, she's doing what she never thought she'd have to do. Not at this point, anyway. She's turning to her father for financial support."

I doubt most Americans would want to pay her unemployment benefits if they had the following information.

The Washington Examiner reported:
One of the unemployed was Leslie Macko, a Charlottesville, Va, woman who reportedly had been dismissed from her job as an aesthetician at the spa of the Atlantic Coast Athletic Club (ACAC) in Albemarle Square, according to Charlottesville's CBS 19:

CBS19's Jessica Jaglois has learned that Macko was found guilty of prescription drug fraud in March 2009, one month before Macko lost her job at ACAC. She served a one year probationary sentence.

It's Time for Democrats to Tremble in Fear Again: It's August Recess Town Hall Time.

The Legislative Reorganization Act of 1970 requires Congress to take a recess every August, unless there is a war. Of course, Congress can change this anytime they choose. Big spending Democrats are probably wishing there was a good reason to skip the recess this year. They have to face their voters at Town Halls again. The National Republican Congressional Committee put together this video collection of Town Hall experiences to welcome Democrats back to Washington last fall. If you haven't seen it, you are really going to enjoy this video.

Bad News for Democrats, There May be Back-to-Back Ethics Trials of House Democrats


The ethical charges against Rep. Charles Rangel (D-N.Y.) are well know. There have been conflicting reports about whether Rangel has been able to make a deal that would prevent an embarrassing trial. Democrats, including President Obama, seem ready to throw Rangel under the bus. Additionally, the House Ethics Committee is very close to charging Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) with ethical lapses for the $12 million in TARP money she allegedly help funnel to a bank partially owned by her husband. Waters is reportedly going to force a public trial.

The Hill reported:
Multiple news outlets reported Friday night that Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) has chosen to face a trial on ethics charges.

Republicans...err...I Mean Democrats Try to Repeal Part of Obamacare


Democrats forgot to read the health care reform bill before they rammed it through Congress. Consequently, they have discovered a need to repeal part of it.

The Politico reported:
Democrats proposed repealing new IRS reporting requirements that small business has warned would be overly burdensome. But they attached a new tax on Americans conducting business overseas— essentially a poison pill for Republicans who are unlikely to support a new tax.

If they had read the bill and knew anything about business, Democrats would have known this was a bad idea. If they succed in repealing this section, the bill will become a budget buster by CBO scoring, unless they cut somewhere else.

(Video) Congressman Mike Pence reams Democrats for branding Tea Party as "extremists"

Republican Congressman Mike Pence invokes the words of Thomas Jefferson and reams Democrats in this impassioned defense of the Tea Party movement.

From the video via Breitbart:
"Yesterday we learned of a new effort by Democrats in Washington to attack American citizens who speak their mind and peaceably assemble as ‘extremists or radicals.’ Demeaning tea party citizens, or other Americans who are simply saying ‘no’ to runaway spending, takeovers and bailouts, is beneath the dignity of a great political party and it smacks of desperation."

Obama Administration Proposes Amnesty by Administrative Fiat

When President Obama's Cap and Trade bill stalled in the Senate last year, he decided to ignore the will of the legislator and the American people and change the rules to allow EPA to regulate CO2 as a pollutant. When President Obama's health care reform bill was rejected by the American people and stopped by a filibuster in the Senate, Democrats cut backroom deals, held votes in the middle of the night and changed the rules to pass health care reform as a reconciliation bill. Now, President Obama's amnesty immigration reform bill is stalled out in Congress. A CNN poll released in April found two-thirds of Americans were opposed to amnesty for illegal immigrants. Obama lacks the votes in Congress and doesn't have the support of the American people to change Congresses mind. What will he do? Will he abide by the will of Congress and American citizens? President Obama could care less about what the 'little people,' or Congress for that matter, think. He will attempt to ram through his liberal agenda by administrative fiat. Obama will change the rules to give as many illegal immigrants amnesty as possible if he can get away with it.

NRO reported:
According to an internal U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services memo going the rounds of Capitol Hill and obtained by National Review, the agency is considering ways in which it could enact “meaningful immigration reform absent legislative action” — that is, without the consent of the American people through a vote in Congress.

You can read the entire memo at NRO. Here is a screen capture of the first paragraphs.

EPA rejects petitions to reverse its 2009 decision to regulate CO2 as a pollutant

The states of Virginia and Texas, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and other groups petitioned the EPA to reverse it's December 2009 decision to regulate CO2 as a pollutant. Not only did EPA completely dismiss the Climategate scandal, they are claiming global warming is getting worse.
The petitions to reconsider EPA’s Endangerment Finding claim that climate science cannot be trusted, and assert a conspiracy that invalidates the findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, and the U.S. Global Change Research Program. After months of serious consideration of the petitions and of the state of climate change science, EPA finds no evidence to support these claims. In contrast, EPA’s review shows that climate science is credible, compelling, and growing stronger.

Here is the Monthly Mean Surface Temperature Anomaly chart for 1996~2010 from NASA GISS. Does this look like global warming is "growing stronger" or stalled out since 1998?



One of the reasons EPA cited for continuing belief in global warming was loss of Arctic sea ice. However, that isn't a representation of the entire Earth's temperature. A better gauge is Global Sea Ice Area. Here is a chart from the University of Illinois' The Cryosphere Today. Do you see clear evidence of global warming?

Tingles Fears Judges Ruling Blocking Arizona Immigration Law Will Be "Killer for Democrats"

I don't ofter agree with Chris Matthews, but I believe he is right on this occasion. The vast majority of voters support the Arizona immigration enforcement law. Much of the voter backlash building in the country is against the size and power of the federal government. Matthews is correct this ruling is going to "dramatize" that point in voters minds.

Transcript at NewsBusters:
CHRIS MATTHEWS, HOST: Let me finish tonight with this federal injunction against the new Arizona immigration law.

First of all, it is a killer issue politically for the Democrats this fall and a huge windfall for the Right. It will anger even those people who believe the Arizona law went too far. It will dramatize the main case raised by the Tea Party people, that the federal government in Washington has become too powerful, that the rights of states have been terribly abridged. That is the political consequence and it will be felt mightily this November.

Joy Behar Jokes on Twitter About Fellating Obama During Interview

President Obama will appear on 'The View' today. He will be the first sitting President to appear on ABC's daytime talk show. Women are the target audience for 'The View' and Obama is trying to shore up this demographic before this November's elections. Democrats need the 'soccer mom' vote to help stem the bloodbath headed their way this fall. Among the critics of President Obama's foray into into fluffy daytime TV is Rosie O'Donnell. Radio Equalizer quoted O'Donnell as saying,
"I don't really think sitting presidents should go do fluffy daytime TV shows."

In spite of the criticism, 'The View's Joy Behar is excited about the visit. She tweeted this yesterday.

Irony: Harry Reid's Filibuster Reform Bill Doesn't Have 60 Votes to Stop Filibuster

Demo Rep. Maxine Waters is concerned the country is being run by the "Enemy Right-Wing Press" or something


The country is being run by the right-wing press? Aside from talk radio and a few blogs, the only media in the county that will report the conservative side of the news is FOX News and a few newspapers. Most journalists are liberal Democrats who voted heavily for Obama. The nonpartisan Center for Media Studies found FOX News to be the most fair and balanced in a 2007 study (small pdf). A PPP Poll released this year found FOX News the most trusted name in news among the major networks and for good reason. Of course, Maxine Waters doesn't know this information because the liberal media she is addicted to won't report the facts. Consequently, she has developed a distorted and almost deranged world view. Here is what she said today at the Urban League’s Centennial Celebration in Washington.

From ABC News:
“The enemy,” according to Waters, is the conservative media. “The same people enemy that just killed off ACORN and other things,” she said.

“The right-wing press is using that platform to literally do their organizing, to intimidate you and basically run this country.”

Rangel Tries to Get Out of Ethics Charges by Having an Unethical Meeting?


There are allegations Charlie Rangel's attorney met privately with Democrats without a Republican from the Ethic Committee present. This could torpedo any hope Rangel has for a deal. At least one Republican has to agree and in the now heightened partisan atmosphere, that is unlikely to happen.

Politico reported via Hot Air:
Rep. Charles Rangel’s chances of cutting an ethics deal are in jeopardy over allegations that he met privately with Ethics Committee Chairwoman Zoe Lofgren (D-Calif.) Monday night without any Republican members of the bipartisan panel present.

Oops! Obama's Hispanic Poll Numbers Slip



IN 2008, President Obama received 67% of the Hispanic vote. Last November, a Associated Press-GfK poll found 68% support for President Obama. This July, a Associated Press-Univision poll has found Obama's support down to 57%. This comes on the heels of President Obama's immigration reform push. When Hispanics realize there will be no immigration reform this year, that bump will wear off and Obama could see Hispanic support numbers below 50%.

AP reported:
President Barack Obama’s once solid support among Hispanics is showing a few cracks, a troubling sign for Democrats desperate to get this critical constituency excited about helping the party hold onto Congress this fall.

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer Walks Back Nancy Pelosi's "Drain the Swamp" Promise


In October 2006, Nancy Pelosi promised to "drain the swamp" she claimed Washington had become. Of course, that was a Republican swamp. Pelosi has certainly failed to keep her promise since Democrats have gained control of the House. Now, her right arm, Steny Hoyer, wants nothing to do with the claim.

The Hill reported:
Pelosi famously vowed in 2006 to “drain the swamp” that ensnared Republican members and their leaders during the George W. Bush administration.

During his weekly press conference on Tuesday, Hoyer clarified that he has never used that phrase.

He spoke buoyantly about former Sen. Robert Byrd's early life Klan membership. In this video of his comments shortly after Byrd's death, he seemed mainly concerned about how losing a Senator would affect the Democrats plans to pass their financial reform bill.

Obama has completely lost touch with mainstream America


President Obama has taken four vacations in a month. This is far beyond the wildest dreams of most Americans. They are lucky if they have a job and can barely pay their bills in this economy. Obama claims he and Michelle are "not far removed" from what most Americans are suffering.

He says he and first lady Michelle Obama took a hit like everybody else when the economy nearly collapsed, telling ABC that a college fund for daughters Malia and Sasha has gone "up and down'' with the stock market.

Obama says the first couple is "not that far removed from what most Americans are going through.''
Accent is mine.

Yet, Obama golf, vacations and parties almost nightly when in the White House. This seems to be a long way from the suffering this economy has wrought on ordinary Americans. President Obama clearly has lost touch with mainstream America; if he ever was. President Obama is just another liberal elitist who thinks he knows what is best for us peons.

Shirley Sherrod’s Husband: “We Must Stop the White Man and Uncle Toms From Stealing Our Elections”

Shirley Sherrod has been portrayed as a martyr after being accused of racism and forced to resign after an edited videotape of her March NAACP speech was released. The video is damning, but at the end she does speak of her redemption. Many people have been critical of the video and claimed her comments were not in context. It is going to be difficult to do the same for this January video of her husband, Charles Sherrod. How do you put the sentence, “We Must Stop the White Man and Uncle Toms From Stealing Our Elections,” in any context that doesn't seem steeped with racism?

Obama is Working Hard (Not)

Being President is a hard job, but somebody has to do it. Our country is facing many serious problems; high unemployment and a stagnant war in Afghanistan are just couple of them. Many Americans have a vision of President Obama rising early for a busy eighteen hour day. Let's check his schedule and see how he is doing.

Obama quits work at lunch on Friday after a light morning.


Obama doesn't resume work until lunch on Monday.


You have to wonder if the 9.5% of Americans unemployed wouldn't be willing to work a little harder for:
$400,000 per year, along with a $150,000 expense account, a $100,000 nontaxable travel account and $19,000 for entertainment.

John Kerry When Pressed About Yacht Tax Evasion: "Can I get out of here, please?"

The liberal elites who are running the country now think they are exempt from the rules that apply to ordinary people. This was highlighted last year by the revelations that many of President Obama's cabinet nominees had tax problems. More recently, we have Charles Rangel and John Kerry proving again liberals think they are the lords of common man and not subject to the same rules , or taxes, we have to live with. Of course, Kerry denies the obvious.

NYT Issues Correction for Article Alleging Tea Party Racial Slur was Directed at Rep. John Lewis


Andrew Breitbart has offered a $100,000 to the United Negro College Fund for anyone who can prove Tea Party protesters hurled racial epithets at Rep. John Lewis and members of the Congressional Black Caucus during an anti-Obamacare rally in Washington March 20, 2010. You can see from this video the crowd was boisterous and noisy, but you don't hear any racial epithets. Apparently, the New Your Times can't find any evidence either. They are walking back the claim.

President Obama has certainly tripped over the race issue several time. The worst was the Crowley, Gates affair that required a beer summit to put to bed. Now, Obama is caught up in the firing forced resignation of Shirley Sherrod after Andrew Breitbart showed part of her inflammatory NAACP speech. President Obama has already had to call Sherrod and apologize. Maureen Dowd thinks she knows what Obama's problem is. He has too many white guys working for hum.

The first black president should expand beyond his campaign security blanket, the smug cordon of overprotective white guys surrounding him...

Otherwise, this administration will keep tripping over race rather than inspiring on race.

Obama Admin Urged British Officials to Use "Compassion" Fiction as Reason for Lockerbie Bomber Release


We now know the Lockerbie bomber may live another ten years, in spite of being released on the humanitarianism fiction he had only three months to live. Where did the British get the idea for this farce? They may have gotten it from the Obama administration. Politics UK is reporting, deputy head of the US Embassy in London Richard LeBaron, sent the following letter to to Alex Salmond, Scottish first minister.
It read: "If Scottish authorities come to the conclusion that Megrahi must be released from custody, the US position is that conditional release on compassionate grounds would be a far preferable alternative to prisoner transfer."

This is a slap in the face of victims families.

Does Community Organizer Voter Registration Ad Encourage Non-Citizens to Vote? (video)

Texans Together appears to be a bunch of community organizers that would make Barack Obama proud. They have put out this Houston Votes ad. The ad clearly is playing on Hispanics fear of the Arizona immigration enforcement law. Taken at face value, the ad could be seen as encouraging non-citizens to register and vote. In the ad, a policeman stops a Hispanic looking man and asks him if he is from around here. The man replies no. Upon further questioning, it is revealed the man is from Mexico, but here legally. The policeman then asks to see the man's documents. The announcer then asks us, "Don't want this to happen?" Then he tells us to vote. The ad shows a voter registration form and the announcer says, "Fill out this one or fill out theirs." If the man stopped had been a U.S. citizen, the ad would have made sense, but the Hispanic man in the ad admits he is here legally from Mexico. This would make him a non-citizen and ineligible to vote. Watch the video and form your own opinion.

Facebook Deleted Sarah Palin Post Critical of Mosque Near Ground Zero, Claim Automated System Was Responsible.


Facebook deleted a Sarah Palin Post that was critical of a Mosque being built in NYC near Ground Zero. Facebook claims an automated system was responsible.

The Politico reported:

Facebook issued an apology Thursday for deleting a post by former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

Facebook spokesman Andrew Noyes explained in a statement that a Palin post criticizing the building of a mosque near ground zero in New York City was removed by an automated system and had nothing to do with the content of the post.

The Most Liberal Senator Dodges His State Yacht Tax


Well known tax hiker and the man National Journal rated as the most liberal Senator four times, has registered his 76-foot luxury yacht in Rhode Island instead of his home state of Massachusetts. This move has saved him approximately $500,000 in sales and excise taxes. Liberals love to raise taxes, but they want someone else to pay them.

The Boston Herald reported:
Sen. John Kerry, who has repeatedly voted to raise taxes while in Congress, dodged a whopping six-figure state tax bill on his new multimillion-dollar yacht by mooring her in Newport, R.I....

But instead of berthing the vessel in Nantucket, where the senator summers with the missus, Teresa Heinz, Isabel’s hailing port is listed as “Newport” on her stern....

Cash-strapped Massachusetts still collects a 6.25 percent sales tax and an annual excise tax on yachts. Sources say Isabel sold for something in the neighborhood of $7 million, meaning Kerry saved approximately $437,500 in sales tax and an annual excise tax of about $70,000.

Kerry lost his most liberal Senator title to then Senator Barack Obama in 2007.

Climate Change Bill Suffers Senate Meltdown


Today, Harry Reid said about the Democrats Cap and Tax bill,
"We know we don’t have the votes..."

One thing is certain. If Harry Reid doesn't have the votes now, he will have less in 2011.

The Politico reported:
Senate Democrats pulled the plug on climate legislation Thursday, pushing the issue off into an uncertain future ahead of midterm elections where President Barack Obama’s party is girding for a drubbing.

Rather than a long-awaited measure capping greenhouse gases — or even a more limited bill directed only at electric utilities — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) will move forward next week on a bipartisan energy-only bill that responds to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill and contains other more popular energy items.

“It’s easy to count to 60,” Reid said. “I could do it by the time I was in eighth grade. My point is this, we know where we are. We know we don’t have the votes [for a bill capping emissions]. This is a step forward.”

MSNBC reported:
A House investigative committee on Thursday charged New York Rep. Charles Rangel with multiple ethics violations, a blow to the former Ways and Means chairman and an election-year headache for Democrats.

The committee did not immediately specify the charges against the Democrat, who has served in the House for some 40 years and is fourth in House seniority. The announcement by a four-member panel of the House ethics committee sends the case to a House trial, where a separate eight-member panel of Republicans and Democrats will decide whether the violations can be proved by clear and convincing evidence.

Desmond Tutu reveals that Bush cares more about Africans than Obama


President Bush made a huge financial commitment to fighting H.I.V. in Africa. He formed the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief program. Since 2004, this program has spent $19 billion on antiviral drugs for Africans infected with H.I.V. Undoubtedly, this has saved millions of lives. President Obama isn't so generous with his homeland.

The New York Times reported:
Under the Bush administration, about 400,000 more African patients received treatment every year. President Obama’s Pepfar strategy would reduce the number of new patients receiving treatment to 320,000 — resulting in 1.2 million avoidable deaths over the next five years, according to calculations by two Harvard researchers, Rochelle Walensky and Daniel Kuritzkes. Doctors would have to decide which of the 22 million Africans afflicted with H.I.V. should receive treatment and which should not.

Republican Hispanic Group Filing Motion Against Obama's Arizona Lawsuit


A Republican Hispanic group is opposing the Department of Justice’s lawsuit against the state of Arizona’s new immigration law. We have to wonder what kind of names they will be called by the left.

FOX News
reported:
The Arizona Latino Republican Association will become the first Hispanic organization in the country to actively oppose the Department of Justice’s lawsuit against the state of Arizona’s new immigration law.

Larry Klayman, founder of Freedom Watch, Inc., said he will be joined by ALRA Chairman Jesse Hernandez and members of the Phoenix Law Enforcement Association at an announcement Thursday morning in Phoenix.

ALRA will become the first group of Latino Americans to “put a foot forward legally” in support of S.B. 1070 by filing a motion to intervene against the Justice Department’s lawsuit challenging Arizona’s immigration policy, Klayman said.

“This is a way to tell the country that, ‘Hey, we’re Americans too and we believe in the rule of law,” Klayman told Foxnews.com. “It’s a way to say, ‘We got here legally and we contributed a great deal. We want the rest of the country to recognize that we’re with you’ [in the national immigration debate].”

Quinnipiac University Poll: Any Republican Could Beat Obama in 2012


A Quinnipiac University Poll has found 48% of voters don't think president Obama deserves reelection. By a margin of 39 - 36 percent, voters would elect any republican running against Obama.
A year after President Barack Obama's political honeymoon ended, his job approval rating has dropped to a negative 44 - 48 percent, his worst net score ever, and American voters say by a narrow 39 - 36 percent margin that they would vote for an unnamed Republican rather than President Obama in 2012, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.

This compares to a 48 - 43 percent approval for Obama in a May 26 national poll by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University and a 57 - 33 percent approval last July, just before the political firestorm created by opposition to his health care plan galvanized political opponents and turned independent voters against him....

American voters also say 48 - 40 percent Obama does not deserve reelection in 2012.

ObamaCare will put 16 million more Americans on Medicaid and Make Their Patient Outcomes Worse


Obamacare care will extend coverage to 32 million Americans according to Democrats. Half of that extended coverage will come by adding 16 million people to Medicaid rolls. Unfortunately for them, many times Medicaid patients have poorer outcomes than those with no insurance at all.

Reason reported:
Avik Roy makes a frequently overlooked point: Numerous studies suggest that Medicaid, the federal-state partner program that provides health coverage to low-income individuals, produces sub-par health outcomes. And that’s not only when compared with private insurance. In numerous studies looking at health outcomes for patients with specific maladies, Medicaid recipients fare worse or no better than those who have no insurance at all. And the cost for those outcomes is enormous; in 2008, according to the National Association of State Budget Officers, Medicaid accounted for more than a fifth of total state spending. Care to take a guess where fully half of the health insurance expansion in ObamaCare comes from? That’s right: According to the CBO’s projections, 16 million individuals are expected to enter Medicaid by the end of the decade. In some cases, that means that individuals who were previously on private health insurance will end up being shifted to Medicaid.
