Blogline of the Day – a take off on Joe Biden

Joe Biden, running mate of Obama, is oft heard to say “Obama is dead and GM is alive”.  Over at The Corner: “Chris Stevens is dead and the UAW’s pension plan is alive.“ That would be Ambassador Chris Stevens to Libya, murdered in Benghazi.  And the GM UAW union workers’ pensions are alive because the … Read more

After months of hearing about Ladyparts, NOW we hear about Obama’s Manparts?

Speaking to reporters after President Obama’s rally in Lima High School in Ohio Friday, longtime adviser David Axelrod said that the incumbent has never been more fired up. “I’ve known him for 20 years. We’ve worked closely for 10 years. I’ve never seen him more exhilarated than he is right now. He believes in what … Read more

Obama: Revenge. Romney: For Love of Country

The true Obama is coming out – contrast with what Romney thinks.

“He asked his supporters to vote for revenge.  For revenge.  Instead, today I ask the American people to vote for love of country.”

 

(H/T: Instapundit)  Again, Romney was not my guy in the primary; in fact, there were almost as many choice before Romney as there were his opponents in the primary.  But yes, THIS is what I want to hear from a President, for love of country, and not seeking revenge on one’s political opponents.  Obama has shown us yet another glimpse of his real side in that gaffe (““No, no, no. Don’t boo. Vote,” he said. “Voting is the best revenge.””).  I need to hunt down that video because it absolutely BEGS the question: “Revenge for WHAT?”

Here it is:

It’s Time for Us to do Our Part

Four years ago was historic. The first black president was inaugurated. For the first time, a former First Lady became the Secretary of State. It was the first time the Democrats controlled the Oval Office, House of Representatives, and the Senate since the nineties. It was the first time I stopped yelling at the news and rolled my lazy butt off the couch and started actively participating in the political discourse (okay, that part’s not really historic).

Barack Obama, Ben Ghazi, and Warren Wimmen Walk into a Bar…

Alternate title:  Jobs report – 65 million can’t find work, unemployment effectively zero. Alrernate alternate title:  If Barack Obama falls in the electroal forrest and the Main Stream Media doesn’t report it, did it really happen? Sigh. Tuesday can’t come soon enough.  That will not, however, be the end of it.  While Romney will very … Read more

Look For The Union Label…

ILFWU ad campaing promoted Union products in the seventies and early eighties
Look for the Union Label - for obstruction and delay in a time of crisis

That catchy tune from the 70’s/80’s ad campaign promoting Union made products might need to be re-spun with a new front man in the shadow of Hurricane Sandy.  Relief crews that drove all the way to New Jersey from Alabama were told thanks, but no thanks—we don’t want your help….because you use non-union labor.

This looks like a good time to Quote the President.

President Barack Obama vowed: “We are not going to tolerate red tape, we are not going to tolerate bureaucracy.”

Liberty will advance with Ovide as Governor

As the leader of a Republican organization focused on liberty in New Hampshire, I often come across people who refuse to go along with the party nominee in higher-end races and vote their conscience instead.

A vote on principle is certainly something of value and thankfully common among people who truly understand what liberty means. At the same time, it’s important for liberty-minded Republicans and independent-minded voters out there to consider that no person can possibly agree with them on every subject. For that reason, voting on principle sometimes requires a little more deliberation, especially in this election when the momentum of liberty counts so much on the results.

On Wednesday November 7th Can We Blame A Video…

Ten days of blaming a YouTube video for the coordinated al Qaeda terrorist attack that resulted in four dead Americans in Benghazi Libya may yet turn out to be true.  That video, or more precisely the White House cover-up, might well be the last straw that tips a significant number of voters away from Obama, … Read more

What’s 5% of 4 Billion?

Answer:  The amount of money George Lucas saves by selling Lucasfilm now instead of waiting until 2013 when the long term capital gains tax on the sale of assets held more than one year rises from 15% to 20%. And Lucas is already a liberal-hypocrite-weenie so don’t expect him to invest the difference in a … Read more

Starbucks War On Women?

Police were summoned to the Bradenton business “by the staff at Starbucks regarding a female that was in their lobby and was masturbating.”  – Smoking Gun The woman was arrested for possession of drug paraphernalia after a police officer, summoned by the … Read more

Coward. Politics over patriotism? No – politics over American lives

With more and more details about the murder of 4 Americans in Benghazi dribbling out, and nobody in the Obama Administration (White House, DoD, CIA, State) taking real responsibility for the “stand down” decision (“not us!!”) and the Mainstream press covering for them all in this worse-than-Watergate scandal), I am making the executive decision to … Read more

Live Fee Then Die – Say Hello To New Hampshire’s ‘Fee’ Staters?

The left has tried to turn the Tea Party into their boogeyman. But you know what the Tea Party wants?  They think we are taxed enough already.  Stop adding taxes.  Stop spending more money than we take in.  Stop making government cost so damn much that small business can’t hire to pay for what government we actually need.

And the Free Staters just want New Hampshire to keep its small government character.  They, like the Tea Party, prefer local control to being lorded over by the state or federal government.  Government, yes – but as local as it can be and small and efficeint.  And what’s truly funny about the Democrats attacks on the Free Staters is that many of these folks actually agree with Democrats on several issues.  Some of them are Democrats.

Which brings us to Democrats.

Democrats are easy.  More central government, more spending and growth of central government, more command and control, less local control and more taxes and fees to pay for it..  So what do you think?  From now on should we just refer to New Hampshire Democrats as “Fee” Staters?

Obama’s “Brown Shirts”

“I think when you spread the wealth around it’s good for everybody.”—Barack Hussein Obama

This is beginning to be scary stuff. The President of the nation has us all on a socialist track; He is driving the country into chaos and disorder; too many people do not have jobs;  He is increasing the grasp of government into our daily lives more as each day passes.

So use your imagination here. Ronald Reagan told us early on that,

“Outside of its legitimate function, Government does nothing as well or as economically as the private sector of the economy. For three decades, we sought to solve the problems of unemployment through government planning. And the more the plans fail, the more the planners plan. The Government can’t control the economy without controlling people. And they know that when a government sets out to do that, it must use force and coercion to achieve its purpose. Somewhere a perversion has taken place. Our natural unalienable rights are now considered to be a dispensation of government. And Freedom has never been so fragile, so close to slipping from our grasp as it is at this moment.”
