In the category of “I wish I had thought of this”: WW II history redone in the Obama “foreign policy” style

Once again, one of those whole post – posts; from Peter Kirsonow at The Corner:

Cambridge, Mass. — Celebrated historian Bertram Oxley has uncovered a memorandum from former Japanese Emperor Hirohito to Admiral Yamamoto dated December 6, 1941, showing that the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor was motivated by an offensive film made by Charlie Chaplin ridiculing Japanese cuisine.

“Contrary to historical accounts over the last seventy years,” Professor Oxley said in an interview today with the BBC, “What appeared to be a meticulously planned surprise attack was actually a spontaneous demonstration by moderate sushi connoisseurs in the Imperial Navy in response to a hateful and offensive movie. Thereafter, extremist elements within the Japanese military co-opted the spontaneous attack, transforming it into the overseas contingency operation sometimes referred to as ‘World War II.’”

How to start a Fight – Part 4

One year, I decided to buy my mother-in-law a cemetery plot as a Christmas gift… The next year, I didn’t buy her a gift. When she asked me why, I replied, “Well, you still haven’t used the gift I bought you last year!” And that’s how the fight started…..

Democrat Values Vs. TEA Party Values

The Entire New Hampshire Democrat party is running against the TEA Party.  They claim that they stand for New Hampshire values, not TEA Party values.  Well I can see why Democrats would object to TEA Party values but are they sure they can lay claim to New Hampshire Values?

Tea party originalFor the novices in the audience the TEA Party stood up to object to excessive spending and the taxes that spending would inevitably require.  (If your president spends 5 trillion dollars in just three years and you don’t make a peep in objection, that is a Democrat party value–someone has to pay for that, and it is the middle class and everyone else and suggesting otherwise it a bald-faced lie; another Democrat party value?)  Americans saw that for what it was when it started in 2009 and rose up in opposition.  T.E.A = Taxed Enough Already.

Knowing what we know about New Hampshire Democrats do you really want them speaking for your values?  I don’t think you do.  But here are a few examples of New Hampshire Democrat Values to help you decide.

Media: Democrat Operatives – with a byline

“Democrat Operatives with a byline” courtesy of Instapundit        (Cartoon H/T: TownHall) I pine for the day that the MSM (MainStream Media) relentlessly once again pursues the President and his Administration on story after story, just as the Founders recognized  the power of the Press and affirmed it, just as they did under President Bush. After … Read more

What does the TEA Party want?

They say, “If you’re taking flak, you’re over the target.”  Thus the TEA Party, whose common sense demands for fiscal responsibility and constitutionally limited government are shared by most Americans, is attacked by people who most likely never attended a TEA Party meeting or understood TEA Party documentation.

Thousands of TEA Party groups and millions of members agree that passing debt to our children and grandchildren is immoral and un-acceptable, and that government spending must be limited to government revenue.

How to start a Fight – Part 3

My wife was hinting about what she wanted for our upcoming anniversary. She said, “I want something shiny that goes from 0 to 150 in about 3 seconds.” I bought her a bathroom scale. And then the fight started……

As the people of California destroy their state…

…could there be a place for their escaping businesses in New Hampshire? Read an interesting book review of “Crazifornia: Tales from the Tarnished State — How California is Destroying itself, and Why it Matters.” (As is often the case, the commentary following the article is even more enlightening than the review itself.) (h/t to Instapundit.)

“Hello There, Voter!”

This is really funny. Michele and I went to a great movie yesterday afternoon with Bruce Willis in it (Looper). When we came out, I found a little…sticker on my van’s driver-side window. You know, one of those little Post-It notes you use in the office? Here it is….

Notable Quote: Adam Smith

It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker that we expect our dinner, but from their own interest.  We address ourselves, not to their humanity, but to their self love, and never talk to them of our own necessities, but of their advantages.  Nobody but a beggar chooses to … Read more

Ask Carol Shea-Porter About Tapping Into Wireless Left-Wing Hypocrisy

Warrant-less wiretaps under Obama up 361%Ask Carol Shea-Porter, well–ask any New Hampshire Democrat actually, about warrant-less wire taps.  Remember those?  The Democrats got all wound up about them under a previous president, but lets be honest; it was not because they really gave a damn about your rights or your privacy.

They got wound up because they viewed it as a political opportunity.  They felt that they could win votes and seats (and political power) by bashing George Bush and Republicans on that particular issue if they talked about it enough.

What’s that?  You don’t believe me when I tell you Democrats didn’t really care?  You don’t think it was just about politics and power?  Well why haven’t we heard a word out of them about this issue since Obama came to office?

Or didn’t you know?  According to the ACLU…more people were subjected to pen register and trap and trace surveillance in the past two years than in the entire previous decade.

Notable Quote(s): James Fenimore Cooper – Double Tap!

Terrie Norelli and Sylvia Larsen: Jealous!?

Late in the 2007 session, when Democrats controlled the entire New Hampshire State Government for the first time in 95 years,  then House Speaker Terri “Billion Dollar Deficit’ Norelli and Senate President Sylvia Larsen figured the beginning of a recession was a great time to add a $72,000.00 bathroom remodel onto the backs of taxpayers.  … Read more
