Janet Napolitano: Using Common Sense is Not Good Logic

2011-06-09T08:18:00.000-07:00

Two days ago Janet Napolitano was answering questions at a press conference. There was a question asking her if there should be more common sense used in screening of airplane passengers. That maybe just maybe we should try and focus on Muslim men under 35... for instance.
I know what your thinking... that's racist... OK maybe you weren't thinking that, but she was. She sees this much different than most normal thinking people. She believes it is more likely that we will some how catch a terrorist easier if we watch their travel patterns... that a Muslim man under 35 has no real, "look" to him. You will notice that most of us are not even asking for Muslim women under 35 to be looked at, so it can't be racist. You see there is a certain number of people out there who think they know better than you and I, and that we should just sit down and shut up, and that our common sense solutions to major global problems are too simple and would never work. If she was so sure of that, she would not have said um or uh 31 times in the one minute and 27 seconds.

Rush Limbaugh Doesn't Want Tony Weiner to Resign

2011-06-07T13:23:00.000-07:00

Speaking for himself only today, Rush goes on a 10 minute rant on Anthony Weiner and his current predicament. And surprisingly enough he says that he would like to see Anthony not resign. He says amongst other things that he likes the idea of Weiner being in congress because while in office he remains one of the main faces of the Democrat party, and helps to drag it down. I have never found myself disagreeing with Rush, and I won't start now. Frankly, he does make a lot of sense. He asserts the hypocritical way he backs causes, and votes, that policy wise he is despicable.
He voted NO on restricting interstate transport of minors for abortions 4/2005 NO on banning partial birth abortions except to save the mothers life 10/2003 He voted YES on 192 Billion dollars additional stimulus spending...
Mr. Limbaugh makes a fine point and I for one may be beginning to back this cause... ENJOY!

Nancy Skinner Drunk on Kool Aid

2011-06-07T07:48:00.000-07:00

This Exchange on Fox is very interesting. Even though Nancy Skinner appears to be under the influence of a substance, I would personally like to look past that. Because frankly I don't know that it makes a difference. The interesting part here is that it seems most Democrats are going to speak as though all of our lives are better now than they were in 2009. I ask you that question now, would you say that you are better off now than 3 years ago? I won't answer for myself, I'll await your comments on it. Now to the story at hand.
It does seem to me that Nancy has, at the very least, been imbibing a little bit. Whether she is high or drunk or whatever, she absolutely has a problem with being able to get a sentence out. To me it sounds a little like she drank a bit too much Kool Aid, but I'll let you be the judge... Enjoy!

Breitbart Does the Right Thing

Forgive me but I must smile seeing what has happened to Anthony over the last few days...but...well he dug his own grave.

Weiner: 'I haven't told the truth'

2011-06-06T13:51:00.000-07:00

Speaking to the press assembled at a Sheraton Hotel in New York City, Anthony Weiner admitted he did send the notorious crotch photo to a Seattle coed Published by Andrew Breitbart on BigGovernment.com. "I haven't told the truth," he averred.

"I deeply regret what I have done and I am not resigning. I have made it clear I am accepting responsibility for this."

However, the Congressman, now exposed as a liar, refuses to resign. Asked by the press if he apologizes to Breitbart, he spoke of apologizing to his wife in particular and to others, but omitted naming Breitbart, who was accused of Weiner's allies of fabricating a hoax. Prior to Weiner speaking, Andrew Breitbart took the podium in the hotel ballroom, and demanded an apology. Consequently, the reporters pressed Weiner on whether he apologized to Breitbart specifically. After 2 evasions about apologizing to "everybody," he finally uttered the magic words, "I apologize to Andrew Breitbart."

He admitted to exchanging photos of an explicit nature with about 6 women, including after his marriage.

Clearly the lying Congressman hopes to continue his political career. Will the Democrats want liar to serve as their attack dog?

The liberal media will now maintain the scandal is over and hope it goes away.

Debbie Does Sound Bytes

2011-06-05T14:10:00.000-07:00

Wolf Blitzer interviewed Debbie Wassermann Schultz on CNN about the Anthony Weiner scandal. She is reduced to making a one sentence answer, over and over just to avoid making a bad sound byte. The problem is that the democrats seem to have zero morals and are never held to a higher standard. Instead they lie over and over again and when the lies start to get called out, they revert to this inane type of "I have no idea what you're talking about" style of interviewing. It hearkens back to the days of the Bill Clinton scandal in my humble opinion. I wonder if she has been so forgiving to all of the Republican senators and congress people who have had their own scandals during her tenure in Congress, for some reason I doubt it.

We Get The Country We Deserve

2011-06-04T10:01:00.000-07:00

Many times in my life I've heard this phrase."We get the country we deserve". Living here in California you are subjected to this reality on a daily basis. You see in this state everywhere you turn there is a new law or regulation to control your behavior. Maybe you own a home and want to put up an awning in the backyard, you're gonna need a permit for it. If you run a business, you had better be very careful about the height of your paper towels because if it's too high you'll be sued out of existence by people who make it their job exploiting the ADA (Americans with Disability Act).
We here in California have been dealing with this over-litigious new world for a long time now. So long in fact that we are only slightly surprised when a man walks into the ocean in a suicidal mood, and because of some policy inside the Alameda Fire Department, everyone stands around and watches him stand out there, in the water. They stand for hours watching him stand in the water up to his neck. They stand there as he slips into unconsciousness. They stand there while he begins to float face down, dead and or dying. They also stand there, the police and fire department, watching as a 20 year old nurse wades into the water and pulls him back to shore.
So here we are America, with the country we have "asked" for. Lawyers and bureaucrats run our lives, and tell us what to do and how to do it. In the case of the firefighters, the reason they give for not going into the water, they were not certified in water rescue training because it wasn't in the budget. I want to believe that they would never just let someone drown to prove a political point. I also know, that the left will stop at nothing to "creatively" nudge you. I don't put it past them to at least look the other way from a tragedy in order to secure the funding they so desire.
The only answer to this problem is smaller government. We must slowly start to peel back the layers of bureaucracy. We must stay involved and stay informed. And most of all we must show our friends and neighbors stories like this. Highlighting the negative effects of a simple axiom... a government large enough to give you everything you need, is also large enough to take away everything you have.

Stay Vigilant

2011-06-03T09:00:00.000-07:00

I know it's Friday, and all most of us want to do is watch a little basketball, eat some greasy food, and sleep in. But remember, dear patriots, that on the other side of the globe they are wide awake. They march in the streets spewing hatred for America. They say that there will be no peace until there is peace in "Palestine". They say that Osama lives on in each of their sons, that he lives on in their hearts. They look at him as a man who was finally able to do something that none of the rest of them could not do, "bring America to it's knees". We all know that the only reason the American population ever went to it's knee on 9-11 and 9-12 2001, was to pray. But the difference between us and them is that we chose. We chose to forgive, and never forget. We chose retribution for acts of unspeakable evil. And we chose, at least for a time, to not be silent.
I'm not saying that I would have you spend any of this weekend chanting in the streets, or organizing trips to the middle east to pick a fight. But what I am hoping to get across today, is that just because we got our pound of flesh from Osama, that doesn't mean we have beaten back the group of people that would kill us all and ask questions later.

Bachmann Almost Ready to Run

2011-06-02T18:27:00.000-07:00

Rep. Michele Bachmann plans to participate in a presidential debate in New Hampshire this month, a move that further signals the Minnesota Republican expects to be a candidate for the 2012 nomination.

Bachmann will be on stage for the June 13 debate in Manchester, N.H., sponsored by WMUR and CNN, a Bachmann adviser, Andy Parrish, told The Associated Press.

Bachmann has said she will announce her plans this month in Iowa, the state that hosts the leadoff nominating caucuses. She has been laying campaign groundwork in Iowa by hiring senior political staff and scouting campaign office space. She also has traveled to New Hampshire and South Carolina, states scheduled to hold the first two primary elections.

Bachmann has traveled to Iowa four times this year and met with Gov. Terry Branstad, other GOP officials and influential Republican activists such as pastors and home-school advocates. Freshman state Sen. Kent Sorenson is advising Bachmann and is expected to run her caucus campaign.

In another telling sign, Parrish stepped down as Bachmann's congressional chief of staff this week for what he described in an email to staff as "an exciting new position with the congresswoman."

"I'm focusing more now on political things," Parrish told the AP.

Parrish has been a political adviser to Bachmann since 2005, in the early stages of her 2006 election to Congress from the suburban Twin Cities district she represents. But Parrish and Bachmann go back further, to her time in the Minnesota Senate when Parrish was a Republican legislative aide.

Bachmann is among seven Republicans expected to participate in the debate in the leadoff presidential primary state. The others, according to WMUR, are former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, former Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylvania, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, Rep. Ron Paul of Texas, former Godfather's Pizza CEO Herman Cain and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney.

CNN and WMUR plan to announce the debate lineup Friday.

Bachmann appeared to be eying the latter part of June for an announcement in Waterloo, Iowa. She has said she intends to wait until after her youngest child graduates from high school this weekend.

This is priceless:

Ms. Abramson, 57, said that as a born-and-raised New Yorker, she considered being named editor of The Times to be like "ascending to Valhalla."

"In my house growing up, The Times substituted for religion," she said. "If The Times said it, it was the absolute truth."

So were you missing Van Jones at all.....
Yeah me neither. But here he is again, today he is calling people who are trying to do something about huge fiscal problems Al Qaeda light.
The main line I hear him say is that the budget proposed would "knock out more critical infrastructure than Al Qaeda ever dreamed of."
The flaw obviously in that logic is that infrastructure is trains, roadways, power/phone lines. Infrastructure is NOT social security or Medicaid!

Good morning fellow conservatives, thank you so much for coming back to the blog today. This morning I wanted to pass on a video I found of a man who is trying to make a difference. The American spirit is obvious in him and he shows that individuals, not government, are the answer... and they always have been. I found this story inspiring and I also see it as a great model for others. This type of business is what makes us great as a nation. Ladies and gentlemen... Jim Noble.

Pro-Obama media always shocked by bad economic news | Michael Barone | Politics | Washington Examiner

2011-05-31T10:50:00.000-07:00

When reading the news of the day many of us are worried about the potential of a double dip recession. But then again, you and I live in the real world. It's probably not a shock to you that most of the mainstream media is not. How can I tell? Frankly it's because they are so easily "surprised" when the economic woes continue, even though their "messiah" is in office, and Democrats held a super-majority for a short time. I can just see the shock on the faces of the news people as they get ready to read about another drop in home prices. This frankly is why you can't get to wrapped up in government largess as an ideology. At some point that top down style implodes on itself. Enjoy this article from the Washington Examiner on the interesting dichotomy between the mainstream media's response to economic news under Obama versus under Bush.
