Crib Notes & Teleprompters

DMartyr — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 15:42:05 +0000

I'm sure the world knows by now, since the leftist blog-o-sphere has been covering it non-stop, that Sarah Palin wrote notes on her hand for her Tea Party speech Saturday night. (Oh, the humanity!!)

As Founding Bloggers notes, via the Gateway Pundit, it's just a silly observation which serves no purpose but to open a floodgate of misogynistic jokes about 'hand jobs'.

It appears the left would rather complain about splinters in another person's hand than concerning themselves about the log in their own eye.

Hypocrisy at it's best.

Gratuitous Stuck-At-Home Weekend Post

captainfish — Sun, 07 Feb 2010 00:30:58 +0000

For those of you who are stuck at home due to Snowmageddon, I have a few posts to lighten your day. However, I think knowing that you are stuck at home with 2-3 feet of snow outside your front door, these posts may not amuse you.

Hitler loses it when he finds out that the people are beginning to see what he and his hinchmen have been trying to hide for so long.

Thanks to An Honest Climate Debate, I have two videos for you from High Lord Questioner Christopher Monkton during his tour-de-force through Australia. The first video is a general news teaser that has some great remarks in it. The second is a much longer portion from his interview. It is edited, but done tastefully well.

And, as you may know, Australia does not really hate A-cup sized women doing porn.

Speaking of Ace, co-blogger Laura (I had a girlfriend named Laura. hmmm) finds an Accuweatherman flipping out over the incredible storm of record. Well, locally it might be. Let's wait till the storm ends before we start shitting bricks like this guy.

And speaking of Australia, New Zealand climate scientists are..... huh? What? New Zea....... Oh come on, I know New Zealand has nothing to do with Australia.... its called a SEGWAY. Sheesh. Anyway, as I was saying, New Zealand's climate scientists are getting their arses handed to them on carbon-plated frozen-CO2 platters. It seems that they have absolutely no documentation or data to back up why they altered all of their temperature data all these years. Data, by the way, that has shown a dramatic increase in warming.

Meanwhile, leave it to a measily storm to help stop Congress from destroying our liberties. Oooohhhh.. someone else's reports also don't have any data to support the Global Warming Alarmism.

Well, that is all for now. You guys have a great weekend, stay warm, stay safe and...

GO COLTS!!

[Update:] Obama says that Bush is ruining his presidency. This economy is not his fault. Former President Bush is working against Obama's policies. It's not his fault. It's NOT his fault!!

“The country cannot return to the “dereliction of duty that helped deliver this recession,” Obama said. He added that the previous administration’s role in the economic meltdown was the “real outrage.”

I think Obama's brain has too much snow in it.

Snow-Friday Fun

captainfish — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 04:22:43 +0000

Boy, it has been a joyous and snow-filled past few months. For us here in my parts of the great Socialist States of America, our snows and ice-storms started back just before Christmas.

And, the joys keep on coming.

With all this in mind, might I once again return your attention to those people of the northern climates that seek in all humility that Al Gore be right. Else, they too soon will freeze.

Please keep praying for Global Warming!!

Are We Getting Overly-Sensitive?

captainfish — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 02:11:19 +0000

Ok. How can I broach this topic without getting people pissed off. Heh, what do I care.

With all the hub-bub and flack over the fact that Rahm Emanuel recently called some idiot and stupid Democrats "F**king Retarded", people seem to be getting overly sensitive. Sarah Palin went national in her condemnation and declaration of forced unemployment of Rahm for his angry utterance a few months back.

I understand the sensitivities of people who are close to someone who has a disability. I can even respect them. But... come on!!

Rahm said what he said towards people of his own kind. He didn't direct his words towards people with any kind of disability other than their inability to see morality and reason. But, we have yet to claim that as a protected status in recent hate crimes bills. Thus, we are still forced to consider them as "normal" people.

And now, it would seem, that even Rush Limbaugh has arisen the ire of Palin's Bunch after his rant AGAINST Rahm and the Democrats.

Ok, now it is my turn to rant.

WTH: IRS Increasing Supply Of Their 12-Gauge Assault Shotguns!!

captainfish — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 14:30:36 +0000

Thanks to Drudge's minor linkage this morning, I found this story. But, I feel this story should get national attention.

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) intends to purchase sixty Remington Model 870 Police RAMAC #24587 12 gauge pump-action shotguns for the Criminal Investigation Division. The Remington parkerized shotguns, with fourteen inch barrel, modified choke, Wilson Combat Ghost Ring rear sight and XS4 Contour Bead front sight, Knoxx Reduced Recoil Adjustable Stock, and Speedfeed ribbed black forend, are designated as the only shotguns authorized for IRS duty based on compatibility with IRS existing shotgun inventory, certified armorer and combat training and protocol, maintenance, and parts.

What in the hell is the IRS doing with a Criminal Investigation unit that is equipped like a fully-armored SWAT team?

If this doesn't scare the dragon snot out of you, then you must be a liberal.

Seriously? Combat trained IRS agents toting 12-gauge pump action assault shotguns?

[Update:] Here is a link to the Remington model that is prolly closest to the government model.

A Muslim prayer leader accused of encouraging his followers to commit violence against the U.S. government was shot 20 times during an FBI raid at a suburban warehouse last fall, according to an autopsy report released Monday

This is really sad. I mean, come on! Can't you FBI guys aim any better than that? Bullets are expensive!

Stuck-At-Home-Day Post

captainfish — Mon, 01 Feb 2010 20:28:49 +0000

Hello all,

I am stuck at home today. Third business day in a row. Including the weekend, I have been stuck at home for 5 days now. PLEASE... I wanna go to work!!

Barring that, can you guys give me some ideas on how to keep myself and my family entertained. The walls are already down to the studs.

I did the watching some movies, playing video games and building a Windows 98 computer thang. But that got old after the 2nd day.

WE NEED IDEAS.

The Idiot Thinking of the Idiot Global Warming Alarmists Who Believe the Idiot Theory of the Global Warming Idiocy

captainfish — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 21:07:36 +0000

If you want to understand how the alarmists believe their idiocy, all you have to do is listen to them and read their statements.

I was perusing Anthony Watt's blog, WUWT, and found a comment by one of his readers. D. King was making an observation on a post about National Wildlife Federation's statement that odd weather, especially Colorado's snowfall, is a clear and significant indicator of global warming.

D. King (09:19:17) :

From the NWF website

“Oddball winter weather is yet another sign of how uncontrolled
carbon pollution amounts to an unchecked experiment on people and
nature,” said Dr. Amanda Staudt, climate scientist, National Wildlife
Federation. …”

Wow, another scientist’s reputation circling the drain.

Wow. A pretty self-damning statement. Oddball weather = global warming? You would think that a climate scientists would understand that climate, and to an extent weather, always changes. If not, we would still be a boiling ball of lava in space.

Not taking what someone says at face value, I did some research.

DMartyr — Fri, 29 Jan 2010 12:22:18 +0000

In his State of the Union Address on Wednesday, President Barack Hussein Obama referred to the Constitution of the United States of America:

We find unity in our incredible diversity, drawing on the promise enshrined in our Constitution: the notion that we are all created equal…

Um... wrong. It was in the Declaration of Independence that we find that affirmation of equality.

For a man who claims to be a "constitutional law professor," it shouldn't be that difficult to separate the two documents.

He is now Commander-in-Chief of the United States. I wonder if he really understands his duties in that position...

Prisons Find Their Limits: AoSHQ Lifestyle Banned

Brian C. Ledbetter — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 03:38:50 +0000

Looks like we finally know what the limits of the American prison system are.

Yes, you can lift weights, play basketball, watch television until your brain turns to mush... but don't even think about playing Dungeons & Dragons, you dirty criminal:

MADISON, Wis. — A man serving life in prison for first-degree intentional homicide lost his legal battle Monday to play Dungeons&Dragons behind bars.

Kevin T. Singer filed a federal lawsuit against officials at Wisconsin’s Waupun prison, arguing that a policy banning all Dungeons&Dragons material violated his free speech and due process rights.Prison officials instigated the Dungeons&Dragons ban among concerns that playing the game promoted gang-related activity and was a threat to security. Singer challenged the ban but the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday upheld it as a reasonable policy.

Dungeons&Dragons players create fictional characters and carry out their adventures, often working together as a group, with the help of complicated rules.

Singer, 33, has been a devoted player of the fantasy role-playing game since he was a child, according to the court ruling. After the ban went into effect, prison officials confiscated dozens of Dungeons&Dragons books and magazines in his cell as well as a 96-page manuscript he had written detailing a potential scenario for the game that players could act out.

Why do I have a feeling that Ace just might have more to say about this whole situation?

It's The JOOS Fault!

DMartyr — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 22:16:32 +0000

A new Lancet study claims Palestinian men are beating their wives because of Israel.

I kid you not.

They are blaming domestic violence in an Islamic society on Jews. Certainly, it wouldn't have anything to do with this:

"Men are the maintainers of women because Allah has made some of them to excel others and because they spend out of their property; the good women are therefore obedient, guarding the unseen as Allah has guarded; and those on whose part you fear desertion, admonish them, and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them; then if they obey you, do not seek a way against them; surely Allah is High, Great." (Quran 4:34)

And it certainly couldn't have anything to do with countless accounts in the Hadith in which Muhammad approved of, or turned a blind at, his followers beating their wives. It is very unlikely that it has anything to do with Islam's perfect example himself beating his own wife.

And it doesn't matter that these findings directly conflict with this extensive study.

No.

It's the JOOS fault.

The GOP Still Don't Get It. Will They Ever?

captainfish — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 01:38:01 +0000

Will the GOP EVER get it?

And by that I mean the GOP leaders and its representatives in Congress. And my primary example in this topic will be the GOP's leader in the 1994 Republican Revolution, Newt Gingrich and the current GOP leaders in Congress.

Newt was chosen to be the head of that Revolution as the Speaker of the House. He became the speaker in more ways than one for the Republican party. And, it might also help to explain why and how the Republicans lost their Revolution in both the Senate and House. He ran on a strong conservative platform. However, like most officials who find themselves in positions of power, they fall victim to the power and the "game".

Newt Gingrich, while implimenting many of the Republican ideas that were outlined in the "Contract With America", a document he developed, his party never-the-less failed to enact many of the bills that reflected the "Contract"'s planks.

For example, if they had enacted their very first planned reform, " require all laws that apply to the rest of the country also apply equally to the Congress", then we would not be having to threaten to pass laws now to force Congress to participate in ObamaCare even though they specifically exempt themselves.

It would seem that Newt was all talk, bluster and trying to stay in the limelight. Just take a look at recent news posts abut Newt.

Sickness Of The Left

DMartyr — Fri, 22 Jan 2010 19:28:49 +0000

This post is almost too vile to publish.

Jack Cafferty of CNN.com posted an editorial about a 13-year-old Saudi girl sentenced to 90 lashes for carrying a cell phone to school. The punishment is harsher than many Saudi thieves receive. She could very well die during the lashing.

The editorial goes on to point out how women are often treated as second-class citizens, with few rights.

Cafferty asks readers to respond to this question: What does it say when America’s ally Saudi Arabia sentences a 13-year-old girl to 90 lashes after bringing a cell phone to school?

The story is disturbing enough. But even more so, are the responses of CNN readers, most who live in America - the one country that rightfully condemns human rights abuses - more than any other.

Some response examples:

"We should respect the cultures of other countries as well as the rules of the school Both of which come above all else." - Mehra

Wow. What can I say. Sen Specter shows why he finally decided to join the LibDem party after faking being a Republican for so many years.

His anger and his inability to listen are clear indications that he is a liberal democrat.

Take a listen to him chastise and provide a little domestic-abuse to Sen Michelle Bachman on the Dom Giordano radio show on WPHT-AM.

"She said she voted for prosperity, but prosperity was not a bill"

What a complete idiot. Am so very glad that he now represents the "other" party.

Hacks at Politico Insult 51.9 Percent of Massachusetts

Brian C. Ledbetter — Thu, 21 Jan 2010 18:35:45 +0000

It would seem that citizens voting in a manner not consistent with the Politico's flamingly-liberal beliefs earns a quite curious label:

Sour swing voters desert Democrats

BOSTON — It’s voters like Deborah Donahue that keep Democratic candidates and consultants up at night.

She’s from the suburbs, belongs to a union and is not registered with either political party.

“Next Tuesday we get to make a statement about where we want our state to go and our country to go,” Donahue said here last week as she stood outside a Martha Coakley event — holding a sign for Scott Brown’s campaign.

You know, if the partisan hacks at the Politico were a little bit smarter, they'd think twice about slurring the bloc of voters responsible for "pulling off one of the biggest upsets in Massachusetts history." (And that's the ultra-flaming-red-diapers-liberal Boston Globe speaking!)

Good thing they're not that smart, though, much like their liberal co-conspirators in the rest of the Dying Old Media. This can only mean that we'll continue to see sour-faced stories like this, which are almost guaranteed to continue working up voter rage until a sweet November, coming a mere 10 months from today.

May the conservative tide keep rolling on!

Gallop Poll - Alabama And Iran Equal In 'Religiosity'

DMartyr — Thu, 21 Jan 2010 14:35:29 +0000

Gallop asks, "What do Alabamians and Iranians have in common?"

Why, Religiosity!

The mistake in this poll, of course, is the equation bewteen two different religions. While Gallop attempts to present some likeness between a small region of a Christian country and a radical Islamic country, the differences could not be further apart.

This is a perfect example of how a carefully worded poll question can elicit any skewed results desired.

A more accurate poll question might be:
