Video – There Is No Fact That Obama Won’t Deny

Posted by on

Yeah, I know he’s joking, but still, to miss your shot twice and BOTH times say “Oh, I thought that was good”… I just can’t help thinking it’s a perfect window into this narcissist’s soul:

So… when else would Obama say “Oh, I thought that was good”?

“Mr. President, unemployment is 7.8%, which is higher than it ever was under Bush.”

Keep it going in the comments, please…

Obama’s Navy

Excerpt:

Politics aside, Obama has a real vision for the United States Navy of tomorrow, today. He plans to make the Navy greener, and better for the planet. Not only will ships be used, probably, to rescue drowning polar bears and whales and such, but the Navy will begin using one of the cleanest sources of power known to man: wind energy

A Moment With Joe Biden: Caring About People

Posted by on

[by Son of Bob]

And now, a moment with Joe Biden…

BIDEN: …Ya know, yesterday Barack and David Axelrod came to me and said, “Joe, it’s a close campaign and we’re down to the wire, so we want you to stay home. Rest your voice. No speeches. Don’t say a thing to anybody.” And, that’s the kind of people they are, folks. That’s the type of wonderful people I’ve worked with for the past four years. At a time when they need my help more than ever, they were concerned about me. They wanted me to be able to take some time off to spend with my family. But, there’s no way Joe Biden’s gonna sit at home when this campaign needs my help! No, I’m out here to remind each and every one of you good people which party understands the things that affect your everyday lives. And, that’s the party of Barack Obama and Joe Biden. Just a few moments ago, I was talking with a wonderful woman who asked me to speak about Sandy. And, I’ll be happy to. Because that’s what we do, folks. We discuss the issues that hard-working everyday Americans care about. So, which one of you is Sandy? Stand up, let everybody see ya’…

This has been a moment with Joe Biden.

Just a Reminder the People We Give Power to Are Horrible

So the reverend that gave Obama’s inaugural benediction thinks all white people are going to hell. I hate to suggest this, but if a Republican had as many associations with racists as Obama does, the media might make something of that. Anyway, the important thing to remember is that while Obama hangs with racists and domestic terrorists, that doesn’t mean he shares their views. It just means he’s too much of a moral coward to ever speak about those things unless forced to. I mean, he’s a Chicago politician; we can only imagine how much corruption he’s willingly ignored. And this, as most things, goes back to my small government argument (outlined well in my book of course) that whatever power we give the government will inevitably end up in the hands of amoral scumbags. You’d think even the left would listen to this argument; do they really want all the power they give the government to end up in the hands of Michelle Bachmann — or whatever active politician they’re crazy hating these days? Design a government with as much power as you’re willing to give horrible people, which should be very very little unless you’re a moron. Or a hippie.

I Don’t Want My Taxes Raised So I’m Voting for… the Democrat?

Posted by on

So I saw this argument Obama put out on Twitter: Don’t vote for Romney because he’ll raise your taxes.

Really? That’s the argument that Obama, the Democrat, is making: Voting for Republicans could mean your taxes get raised.

Now, looking at the history of the past one hundred years, is there anything in there that would suggest that if you’re really scared of your taxes being raised that voting for the Democrat is the smart idea? I mean, how low information a voter do you have to be to be worried about your taxes being raised and vote for a Democrat. That’s like saying, “I’m really worried about getting quills stuck in my face, so I’m going to go hug a porcupine.” Is anyone falling for that? Where are they? Point to them so I can smack them.

Hey, but at least we got Obama treating raising taxes as a bad thing. Small victories.

Random Thoughts: Halloween and Taxes

If Nate Silver’s model is horribly wrong, let it be known he predicted that possibility too.

The Obama presidency has been a huge national disaster and shouldn’t be politicized.

Maybe Bloomberg wouldn’t spend so much time worrying about salt and large sodas and crap if we just got him a hobby.

Does polling just call land lines or also Obamaphones?

After George Lucas dies, Disney should redo the Star Wars prequels and then we can pretend Jar Jar never happened.

They say any port in a storm but all I had was chardonnay.

I’m going to vote for Romney, but optimally I wish we’d just try going without a president.

Michelle Obama spends Halloween giving swirlies to fat kids.

Allahpundit has been surprisingly non-Eeyorish lately. I’m not sure how to take that.

So that’s Obama’s big attack on Mitt Romney? That he’s going to raise our taxes? Because that’s what which party is known for?

If you’re really worried about your taxes being raised and you’re voting for the Democrat, you are a really low information voter.

There’s no sirens at Drudge, so how interesting a campaign sex scandal could it be?

Hagel? I thought the GOP had him killed.

I’ve been listening to some songs by The Beatles. Pretty good. Whatever happened to them?

So one hurricane and a bunch of people are ready to turn to the federal government, rip open their blouse, and yell, “Ravage my freedom!”
