Steve Wynn on Fox News Sunday

2009-10-14T11:28:00.006-06:00

I don't own a TV so I listen to Fox News Sunday with Chris Wallace online. If it's a really good show, I'll watch later on Fox News Sunday's Hulu channel. This was a really good show.

Steve Wynn, the CEO of Wynn Resorts, was on discussing jobs with Michigan governor Jennifer Granholm...

Wynn: Government has never increased the standard of living of one single human being in civilization's history. For some reason that simple truth has evaded everybody. The only thing that creates an increased standard of living is giving someone a job, the demand for their labor -- whether it's you and I, Chris, or anybody else. The people that are paying the price for this juggernaut of federal spending are the middle class and the working class of America.

…soaring rhetoric and great speeches with or without a teleprompter aren't going to change the truth, and the truth is the biggest enemy, the biggest obstacle that working middle-class America has is government spending.

Granholm: It's just so simplistic to say that! With all due respect, I mean, to say that government has never created a job or increased the standard of living. You know, I mean there -- there are a lot of people who are grateful that in this country we have a minimum wage. There are a lot of people who are grateful that they have access to Medicare and Medicaid. And I hope that we get access further to additional health care for those who are uninsured. I mean, there is a balance here. To say that government is all evil... This is a democracy. It's the greatest country in the world.

Wynn: I didn't say that at all. I'm saying that the source of government revenue, the source of well-being in this country is employment. That allows companies to pay taxes, employees to pay taxes. That's the source here and it's gotten out of focus.

Granholm: I agree with you.

Wynn: Okay. That's my point, Governor. I'm not making any other point. And, believe me, ma'am, I've got 20,000 employees. I've had as many as 150,000 families that I've been self-insuring. There's nothing "simplistic" about my approach to this problem.

Wow, he really handed it to her -- nothing against governor Granholm; if any other statist had been in that chair the results would have been the same.

Steve Wynn is my new hero and, I think, radio listeners everywhere will agree that he has a great voice. If you missed it, catch it. If you saw it, it's worth seeing again.

The Republican National Committee's new website, GOP.com, is ugly, red, it bogs down my computer and it's red. I won't be going there again any time soon (not that I went there much before).

Did I mention it's red? ... it's red, really really red, like red-red.

The Boy Scouts are a Dangerous Gang

2009-10-13T15:07:00.006-06:00

Thank God officials are on the ball and getting these dangerous hoodlums the hell out of our schools.

First this...

6-Year-Old Suspended for Bringing Knife-Fork-Spoon to School.
Zachary Christie was so excited to become a Cub Scout that he brought his camping utensil to school, a folding spoon, fork and knife. Zachary wanted to use it to eat his lunch.

And, one day later , this...

Eagle Scout Suspended for Keeping a Pocketknife in his Car.
Matthew Whalen follows the Boy Scout motto, he's always prepared. He keeps a sleeping bag, water, a ready-to-eat meal, and a 2-inch pocketknife locked in the trunk of his car. The knife was given to him by his grandfather, a police chief in a nearby town.

Obama's Doctored Photo-op

2009-10-12T11:44:00.004-06:00

As long as I'm dredging up old news, I can't help but take a jab at this one. I heard the story when it came out last week but it wasn't until I saw the photos this weekend that I realized just how truly ridiculous the whole thing was.

I can just hear the old folks back home...

Sonny: Hey Maw, come see! The President is given' ah speech on the Tee-Vee about how good Obamacare is, and he's got doctors with him! They got on their doctor coats and everything.

Maw: Well I'll be doggone, them doctors do got on their doctor coats, they must be real doctors.

Sonny: That's right Maw. And them doctors think Obamacare is real good too, just like I told-ja.

Maw: Well I'll be doggone, it must be true then, if them doctors in their doctor coats think Obama care is good too.

Sonny: That's right Maw, they must be real doctors if'n they got on them doctor coats.

Maw: Well I'll be doggone... I wonder why I got all this mail from the Hemlock Society today?

Sonny: I signed you up with them Maw, they'rah senior citizen organization, you know, like the Aye Aye Are-ah Pee.

Give me a break. How stupid does the 'Ego in Chief' think we are? It would be insulting... if it weren't so damned laughable.

LaRouche is a Left Wing Nut Job

2009-10-12T05:30:00.004-06:00

Everyone should know by now that Lyndon LaRouche, the man behind the 'Obama as Hitler' posters, is a left wing nut job; not a right wing nut job. Many consider him a communist. It seems that some of you in the Obamedia and nutroots blogosphere are still confused.

According to Wikipedia, every lefty's favorite encyclopedia, he's run for President of the United States eight times since 1976, once as a U.S. Labor Party candidate and seven times as a candidate for the Democratic Party nomination. He declared his support for John Kerry, pledged to mobilize his organization to help defeat George W. Bush, and he supported Hillary Clinton in 2008.

So get it straight CNN, MSNBC, ABC, CBS and all the rest of you left wing lapdog sycophants.

Actually, Mr. LaRouche appears to be a Liberal Fascist, which means, that's right, Lyndon LaRouche is a Nazi... another kumbaya moment. You're Welcome.

Obama Wins Nobel Peace Prize

2009-10-09T07:16:00.002-06:00

President Barack Obama wins the Nobel Peace Prize for "Hope" I guess -- no matter your political affiliation you have to admit, his resume' is pretty thin.

He joins the ranks of liberal American politicians Jimmy Carter and Al Gore. If it's a trend -- let's "hope" his political career follows suit.

Update: It looks like I was right, Obama won the prize for hopes and dreams. Here is the Nobel Committee's statement on awarding the Nobel Peace Prize for 2009 to President Barack Obama.

Sarkozy Schools Obama

2009-10-07T06:40:00.004-06:00

It turns out that behind the scenes French President Nicolas Sarkozy and British Prime Minister Gordon Brown where infuriated that President Obama was unwilling to confront President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad over Iran'ss nuclear ambitions during his U.N. speech because... (pause for dramatic effect) his advisors didn't want to detract from the Ego In Chiefs rousing speech on unicorns, fairy-dust and the importance of banishing all nuclear weapons from the face of the earth.

Mr. Sarkosy replied with...

President Obama dreams of a world without weapons, but right in front of us two countries (Iran and North Korea) are doing the exact opposite.

We are right to talk about the future, But the present comes before the future, and the present includes two major nuclear crises. We live in the real world, not in a virtual one.

President Obama, I support the Americans' outstretched hand. But what did the international community gain from these offers of dialogue? Nothing.

"Hope" doesn't fly when your within missle range.

Obama's Creepy Smile

2009-10-04T09:43:00.002-06:00

More creepy Obama stuff - Barack Obama's amazingly consistent smile from Eric Spiegelman on Vimeo.

As Eric says, "Ladies and gentlemen, your President is a robot. Or a wax sculpture. Maybe a cardboard cutout. All I know is no human being has a photo smile this amazingly consistent.

On Wednesday, the Obamas hosted a reception at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, during which they stood for 130 photographs with visiting foreign dignitaries in town for the UN meeting. The President has exactly the same smile in every single shot. See for yourself -- the pictures are up on the State Department’s flickr. And, of course, compressed into 20 seconds for your viewing pleasure."

130 Photos - Same Obama. That takes a lot of practice in front of a mirror. Love me -- like I love me, please... creepy.

U.N. Speech Summaries

2009-09-28T22:55:00.003-06:00

I've finally made it through last weeks U. N. addresses to the general assembly thanks to C-Span and unemployment. I know most of you don't have the time or the intestinal fortitude to listen to this kind of bull-crap so, as favor to my friends and family, I provide this brief synopsis.

Barack Hussein Obama - President of the United States of America:
"America was bad, now it's good, I am here, I am America's redemption, I - I - I - grovel - grovel - grovel."

How much self-aggrandizing and groveling can one person do -- at the same time!? I was amazed at the all of the "I," "Me" and "My" that came out of this man's mouth. Barack Obama is a pussy*. [Video]

Muammar al-Gaddafi - Leader and Guide of the Revolution (Dictator) of Libya:
"I love you Obama, My African Brother. I hope you don't get shot like John F. Kennedy." (followed by over an hour and a half of absolute insanity).

I have to be honest here, I didn't make through all of this speech, but, who did? I heard the translator collapsed after about an hour and a half. I later found out that he didn't actually pass out, which is what I presumed, he quit because he just couldn't take it anymore. According to the New York Post, after 75 minutes the translator shouted in Arabic, "I just can't take it anymore!" [Video]

Hugo Chavez - "President" of Venezuela:
"I love you Obama, My Socialist Brother. Smells good in here, it smells like hope." [Video]

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad - "President" of Iran:
"Death to Israel." [Video]

Benjamin Netanyahu - Prime Minister of Israel:
"Have you no shame? Have you no decency?"

The only speech that made any sense to me... and I'm not even Jewish, although I do hope to get on that Zionist lackey payroll I keep hearing about. [Video]

You can tell a lot about a man from his friends. Mr. President, you have bad friends.

Update: *It looks like I'm not the only one calling the left pussys. Ann Coulter drops the "P-bomb."
Disclaimer: Although I made up the above quotes I believe they accurately capture the spirit of the associated speeches.

For all your great accomplishments, we all doth say "hooray!"

Here's the creepy - er - creepier part...

He said red, yellow, black or white
All are equal in his sight
Mmm, mmm, mmm!
Barack Hussein Obama!

When I was a kid, I think we sang something like that about Jesus, in church of course, you can't sing about Jesus in school.

Charlie Rangel's Congressional Sclerosis

2009-09-15T13:44:00.005-06:00

One year ago, The New York Times called for the resignation of the corrupt NY Democrat Representative and Chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee Charlie Rangel.

Richard Cohen of the Washington Post writes...

[Charles Rangel] suffers from the degenerative disease called Congressional Sclerosis. Its symptom is the belief that the rules, especially the petty ones, no longer apply to you. This happens over time. It comes with seniority and a sense of victimization that combine to produce the onset of entitlement for goodies to which, in the course of things, you are not entitled. All this is abetted by the righteous belief that everyone else is making money and taking private planes and dipping their tootsies in the balmy Caribbean on a given February Friday -- and so why can't you? You have the power and the staff -- just look at all those people! -- and flunkies who will hold the elevator for you, pick you up at Reagan National Airport and on the other end at LaGuardia -- and you ought to have some commensurate luxuries. This is only right.

That's damned good stuff. I wish I could write like Mr. Cohen.

Millions March On D.C.

2009-09-14T12:43:00.009-06:00

Millions of conservatives marched on Washington D.C. - yes, millions. Don't believe what you're hearing from the left-wing propagandists and sycophants in the Obamedia. Preliminary estimates range from one to two million.

Here's proof...
9/12 DC Time Lapse Video
9/12 Protest Was Over One Million
Media Credibility Plunges; Aerial Views Shows Millions
NYT Reports Thousands, Daily Mail Reports Millions

That's not counting the millions that marched in other parts of this great country. True Americans are tired of, and angry about big government's takeover of America. It's not racism and we're not the fringe.

We want to pass on the greatness that America is to our future generations, that's true compassion. We don't want to hand our children a third world, debt ridden, socialist state.

It ends here big government republicans and democrats. Heed the call or be swept aside. Can you hear us now?

Wilson Tells Truth - Obama Lies

2009-09-13T10:26:00.005-06:00

Representative Joe Wilson (R-SC) told the truth when he proclaimed "you lie!" during President Obama's national health care address.

Obama has lied about what he believes, what he's going to do, his healthcare plan and more.

I'm glad someone in government finally had the courage to use the word "lie." I'm tired of euphemisms such as "disingenuous," "not forthcoming," or "inaccurate" when describing the many lies told by politicians and policy makers - It's about time.

Way to go Joe.

When Bush Spoke to Students

2009-09-09T06:34:00.005-06:00

By Byron York From The Washington Examiner

The controversy over President Obama's speech to the nation's schoolchildren will likely be over shortly after Obama speaks today at Wakefield High School in Arlington, Virginia. But when President George H.W. Bush delivered a similar speech on October 1, 1991, from Alice Deal Junior High School in Washington DC, the controversy was just beginning. Democrats, then the majority party in Congress, not only denounced Bush's speech -- they also ordered the General Accounting Office to investigate its production and later summoned top Bush administration officials to Capitol Hill for an extensive hearing on the issue.

Right-Wing Domestic Terrorists

2009-09-04T16:39:00.002-06:00

I've been called a Nazi, a racist, a fascist, and now, a terrorist.

Name-calling isn't unusual in politics; lawmakers, politicians and us common folks call each other names regularly. What is unusual however is for elected government officials to call those of us in the general public names, and that's exactly what the Democrats are doing.

As we fight back against our own Right-Wing Domestic Terrorists who are subverting the American Democratic Process, whipped to frenzy by their Fox Propaganda Network ceaselessly re-seizing power for their treacherous leaders.

This latest statement comes directly from barackobama.com, a website paid for and operated by the Democratic National Committee.

Barack says the war on terror is over, I realize now that he was talking about those airplane crashing, American killing, suicide bomber al-Qaeda terrorists. It's still open season on anyone that dares to oppose Obama or his government run health care plan - you know - us right-wing domestic terrorists.

I am a bad man.

Harrison Bergeron

2009-08-30T16:33:00.003-06:00

A lesson on guaranteed equality of outcome by Kurt Vonnegut.

The year was 2081, and everybody was finally equal. They weren’t only equal before God and the law. They were equal every which way. Nobody was smarter than anybody else. Nobody was better looking than anybody else. Nobody was stronger or quicker than anybody else. All this equality was due to the 211th, 212th, and 213th Amendments to the Constitution, and to the unceasing vigilance of agents of the United States Handicapper General.

Some things about living still weren’t quite right, though. April, for instance, still drove people crazy by not being springtime. And it was in that clammy month that the H-G men took George and Hazel Bergeron’s fourteen-year-old son, Harrison, away.

It was tragic, all right, but George and Hazel couldn’t think about it very hard. Hazel had a perfectly average intelligence, which meant she couldn’t think about anything except in short bursts. And George, while his intelligence was way above normal, had a little mental handicap radio in his ear. He was required by law to wear it at all times. It was tuned to a government transmitter. Every twenty seconds or so, the transmitter would send out some sharp noise to keep people like George from taking unfair advantage of their brains. [continue...]

Millions, Billions, Trillions

2009-08-28T10:08:00.013-06:00

The looters in Washington D.C. throw these numbers around as if there’s no difference between them. Use a word often enough and it loses its meaning.

How awesome was the last thing you heard described as “awesome?” - not so much, right?

How much is a million dollars, a billion dollars, or a trillion dollars? I wrote them out numerically to try to get a better sense of their true sizes.

One Million Dollars = $1,000,000
One Billion Dollars = $1,000,000,000
One Trillion Dollars = $1,000,000,000,000

That helps a little, but I want a more graphic example. I want to know…

"What does one trillion dollars look like?" and, “How big is an 11 trillion dollar national debt?”

Now that's Awesome.
