Obama says ACORN and Friends will help shape his Presidential agenda

Obama socialism-lite

Is Barack Obama really a socialist?

This "socialism-lite," however, is as specious as is classic socialism. And its insidious nature makes it even more dangerous. Across Europe, this "mild" form of socialism acts as a parasitic ideology that has slowly drained entrepreneurial energy – and freedoms – from its free-market host.

Could it happen in America? Consider the words of longtime Socialist Party of America presidential candidate Norman Thomas: "The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism, but under the name of liberalism, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program until one day America will be a socialist nation without ever knowing how it happened." In addition to Medicare, Social Security, and other entitlement programs, the gathering political momentum toward single-payer healthcare – which Obama has proclaimed is his ultimate goal – shows the prescience of Thomas's words.

Obama campaign = Hugo Chavez campaign

Heard a guest on Fox News radio earlier say he had heard it all before from a candidates campaign in Venezuela. Change, class warfare, blaming corporations, pushing the socialist agenda oh yes I can see it clearly. Look how well things have turned out for Venezuela.

I wonder how much money Chavez has funneled to the Obama campaign?

What would a gallon of milk cost under President Obama?

Raise the Minimum Wage to $9.50 an Hour by 2011: Barack Obama and Joe Biden believe that people who work full time should not live in poverty. Even though the minimum wage will rise to $7.25 an hour by 2009, the minimum wage's real purchasing power will still be below what it was in 1968. As president, Obama will further raise the minimum wage to $9.50 an hour by 2011, index it to inflation and increase the Earned Income Tax Credit to make sure that full-time workers can earn a living wage that allows them to raise their families and pay for basic needs such as food, transportation, and housing - things so many people take for granted.

Barack Obama and Joe Biden's Plan

Milton Friedman, 1976 Nobel Prize winner in Economics, called the minimum wage one of the most "anti-negro laws" for what he saw as its adverse effect on black employment.

So then why would Obama want to do that did he fail economics? Perhaps The One knows that the poor and uneducated don't understand the full impact of another minimum wage hike but would vote for him under false hopes of a "raise".

I told a friend not long after the minimum wage was raised that before we got to the final adjustment to $7.25 an hour we would see $5 a gallon of milk. I chose milk just to keep it simple. When the minimum wage was $4.25 name brand whole milk (red top) was $2.99 a gallon. A few months ago I called him from the store to tell him I was buying a gallon of red top for $5.02. It is possible to argue that some of the increase is due to the high price of diesel fuel and the effects of the drought last year on dairy farms but those factors were no alone in this. The same could be applied to just about any other staple. So if you follow Obama's plan of $9.50 where does that leave milk?

How about this scenario: you took a minimum wage entry level job a few years ago and have now moved up to $10 an hour. Suddenly here comes President Obama and now the new hires are making $9.50. Will your company increase your wages? Doubtful that would happen. Now suddenly you were 4 steps up the ladder only to find yourself back on the 2nd rung. As the cost of goods and services go up with the minimum wage suddenly your budget just got tighter.

Who is Obama helping here? Only himself to get elected.

We have not even touched on those seniors living on a fixed income or the job losses that would surely come with this.

Kentucky attempting to acquire 12,000 acres

Kentucky eyeing huge plot of land, public recreation area among ideas

When nearly 12,000 acres of Western Kentucky farm and woodland goes on the auction block Nov. 8, a partnership of state and other public agencies is expected to be among the bidders.

Their goal is to keep the land — assembled by Alcoa in the 1950s and owned by Kimball International since 1998 — in one tract and to make it available for public recreation.

With four miles of Ohio River frontage, the land straddles the Tradewater River with 7,270 acres in Crittenden County and 4,489 in Union County.

"We're looking at every way possible we may acquire that," said Lt. Gov. Daniel Mongiardo. "I'm very confident we're going to have our partnership together before (Nov. 8) and be there with the ability to purchase this land.

"We've been working hard, and we're hopeful."

Mongiardo said a partnership of state and national conservation organizations and fish and wildlife agencies that would use no state general fund money was being knit together to provide the $25 million or so likely needed to secure the land.

If they could nail that for $25 million I think in the long run it would be a bargain. From what I have seen of it so far would be excellent public land for deer and duck hunting. I could see a hunting lease company trying to snatch it up as well. I myself don't have the need to hunt on public land but would like to see the state try to get it if possible. I know Land Between the Lakes can only provide so much.

Obama descended from slave owners not slaves

Obama, McCain seem to have Ky. ancestry

According to census data on Reitwiesner's Web site, Obama's great-great-great-great grandfather, George Washington Overall, and his great-great-great-great great grandmother, Mary Duvall, both owned slaves in Nelson County about 1850.

"It is amazing when you think about it," Lewis said. "Here you have a black man running for president and he is not descended from American slaves, he is descended from American slave owners. When you look into genealogy, you never know what you will find."

Well I suppose that is interesting in one aspect. In his case the term African-American certainly fits more so than most who prefer the term for themselves.

I wonder if he will issue an apology or use some of the money from his book for reparations.

I would bet this would be getting more play if only McCains ancestors had owned slaves.

Monday polls from IBD/TIPP

IBD/TIPP Tracking Poll: Day Fifteen

IBD/TIPP Tracking Poll: Day Fifteen

Posted: Monday, October 27, 2008

After seesawing between 3.2 and 3.9 points over the weekend, Obama's lead slipped to 2.8 Monday. Battleground also has Obama up 3, and other polls have tightened, including Rasmussen, Zogby and Gallup to 5. Some polls show swings in independents, but IBD/TIPP has them in a stable, 5-point range.

Not going to sweat any poll numbers that are that close but if I was going to take a poll seriously this is the one.

I do find this curious though. Down at the bottom it shows voter breakdown of those who do and do not display an American flag.

Seriously?

ATF disrupts skinhead plot to assassinate Obama

WASHINGTON --
Federal agents have broken up a plot to assassinate Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and shoot or decapitate 102 black people in a Tennessee murder spree, the ATF said Monday.

Was this a serious plot or just 2 morons running off at the mouth?

Cowart and Schlesselman are charged with possessing an unregistered firearm, conspiring to steal firearms from a federally licensed gun dealer, and threatening a candidate for president.

Doesn't seem like much yet hope they have more charges pending. When its all said and done I wonder what they will actually get out of this.

Sen. Ted Stevens found guilty in corruption case

Stevens, 84, was convicted of all seven charges he faced of lying about free home renovations and other gifts he received from a wealthy oil contractor. Jurors began deliberating Wednesday at noon.

What took so long?

Despite being a convicted felon, he is not required to drop out of the race or resign from the Senate. If he wins re-election, he can continue to hold his seat because there is no rule barring felons from serving in Congress. The Senate could vote to expel Stevens on a two-thirds vote.

"Put this down: That will never happen — ever, OK?" Stevens said in the weeks leading up to his trial. "I am not stepping down. I'm going to run through and I'm going to win this election.

But as a convicted felon he will not be able to vote for himself? That makes perfect sense in our Congress I suppose.

13-foot python strangles Virginia Beach woman

VIRGINIA BEACH - A pet snake may have strangled its owner to death in Virginia Beach earlier this week, police say.

Amanda Ruth Black, 25, was found dead in her home on Maracas Arch around 11:30 p.m. Tuesday. Her husband called police and said he found her lying in front of the pet snake's large cage, which was empty.

Police spokesman Adam Bernstein said the medical examiner's preliminary report found that the woman died from "asphyxiation caused by neck compression." Investigators are still awaiting the final results of the autopsy.

Animal control officers reported to the house and found the snake in the same room as Black's body. Bernstein said the snake was "extremely agitated" and required two officers to control it. The snake is currently being kept at the Bureau of Animal Control.

Just in case the article got you down in the dumps here is a pic to cheer you up.

Today in history 25 years ago

Today is the anniversary of the bombing of the American Marine barracks and the French Paratrooper barracks in Beirut.

In the attack on the American barracks, the death toll was 241 American servicemen: 220 Marines, 18 Navy personnel and three Army soldiers. Sixty Americans were injured.

In the attack on the French barracks, 58 paratroopers were killed and 15 injured

The French casualties seem to always be left out of the news over here.

Boehner Asks Bush To Cut Off ACORN Funds

WASHINGTON (AP) -- House Republican leader John Boehner on Wednesday urged President Bush to block all federal funds to a grass-roots community group that has been accused of voter registration fraud in several states, including Boehner's home state of Ohio.

"It is evident that ACORN is incapable of using federal funds in a manner that is consistent with the law," Boehner, a Republican, wrote Bush, saying that funds should be blocked until all federal investigations into the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now are completed.

What took so long?

Medal of Honor recipient passes

Last Medal of Honor recipient in Columbus died Sunday

Retired Col. Robert B. Nett, the last of five Medal of Honor recipients who resided in Columbus, died Sunday. He was 86.

Nett enlisted in the Connecticut National Guard in 1940 and graduated from Officer Candidate School in 1942. His distinguished career included service in World War II, the Korean War and Vietnam.

"He was the greatest patriot that ever lived in Columbus, Ga.," said Nett's long-time friend Jim Rhodes.

Retired U.S. Army Col. Ralph Puckett, considered one of the founders of the modern Rangers, said the inclusion of Nett's name on the Ranger Memorial located near Infantry Hall at Fort Benning and his membership in the Army Ranger Hall of Fame elevated the prestige of the battalion.

"We've lost a real American hero," he said.

From his Medal of Honor citation:

NETT, ROBERT B.

Rank and organization: Captain (then Lieutenant), U.S. Army, Company E, 305th Infantry, 77th Infantry Division. Place and date: Near Cognon, Leyte, Philippine Islands, 14 December 1944. Entered service at: New Haven, Conn. Birth: New Haven, Conn. G.O. No.: 16, 8 February 1946. Citation: He commanded Company E in an attack against a reinforced enemy battalion which had held up the American advance for 2 days from its entrenched positions around a 3-story concrete building. With another infantry company and armored vehicles, Company E advanced against heavy machinegun and other automatic weapons fire with Lt. Nett spearheading the assault against the strongpoint. During the fierce hand-to-hand encounter which ensued, he killed 7 deeply entrenched Japanese with his rifle and bayonet and, although seriously wounded, gallantly continued to lead his men forward, refusing to relinquish his command. Again he was severely wounded, but, still unwilling to retire, pressed ahead with his troops to assure the capture of the objective. Wounded once more in the final assault, he calmly made all arrangements for the resumption of the advance, turned over his command to another officer, and then walked unaided to the rear for medical treatment. By his remarkable courage in continuing forward through sheer determination despite successive wounds, Lt. Nett provided an inspiring example for his men and was instrumental in the capture of a vital strongpoint.

I'm glad Biden brought up the Cuban Missile Crisis

McCain reminds Biden he's been tested in crisis

McCain recalled being ready to launch a bombing run during the October 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis, which Biden said over the weekend tested a new President John F. Kennedy and was the template for the kind of "generated crisis" the 47-year-old Obama would face within six months of taking office.

"I was on board the USS Enterprise," McCain, a former naval aviator, said in the capital city of Harrisburg. "I sat in the cockpit, on the flight deck of the USS Enterprise, off of Cuba. I had a target. My friends, you know how close we came to a nuclear war."

As the crowd of several thousand began to swell with cheers and applause, he added with dramatic effect: "America will not have a president who needs to be tested. I've been tested, my friends."

Thanks Joe!

Squirrel disrupts Ohio Democratic circle jerk

Squirrel disrupts press conference

It would’ve been a normal, everyday political press conference on the steps of the Ohio Statehouse on Monday, Oct. 20.

U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown, Gov. Ted Strickland and Columbus Mayor Michael Coleman — all Democrats — stood shoulder to shoulder in dark business suits in front of a battery of news cameras.

But then a guy dressed in a giant orange squirrel costume showed up, waving a poster that said “Don’t Let Obama + Acorn Steal Ohio.”

/sigh

I wonder if the squirrel was at a Republican press conference and was asked to leave if it would be reported as the crushing of dissent and trampling of the 1st amendment?

More Powell spin

McCain seizes on Biden's comment about Obama

Democratic vice presidential candidate Joe Biden provided McCain an opening on a different issue — readiness to be president — when he told supporters at a weekend fundraiser: "Watch, we're gonna have an international crisis, a generated crisis, to test the mettle of this guy."

Funny that Biden would compare Obama to JFK during the Cuban Missile Crisis. I think history shows us that JFK was a hothead and had it not been for his brother would have attacked. I guess we already know that history is not Bidens strong point as well as spelling.

Obama gained a forceful rebuttal to those concerns over the weekend, when former Secretary of State Colin Powell, a retired four-star general and former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, endorsed Obama and attested to his readiness to be president.

Powell also criticized McCain's selection of Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin as his running mate, saying she failed to meet the primary qualification for a vice president: the ability to assume the presidency at any time.

So Palin fails to meet the primary qualifications but Obama does? Seriously?

Maybe Powell is just looking for his next job?

John Murtha: Pennsylvanians are Racist and Redneck?

Gateway Pundit: John Murtha: Pennsylvanians Are "REDNECKS"

Is he seriously trying to get reelected shooting himself in the foot every week?

First it was

The 17-term Democratic congressman tells the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette in a story posted Wednesday on its Web site that, as he put it: "There is no question that western Pennsylvania is a racist area."

So to spin that he back peddles and says:

"This whole area, years ago, was really redneck," Murtha told Channel 4 Action News.

Murtha believes there is one segment of the population which is holding on to its racist beliefs and he said it's difficult for them to change. Murtha said it may be even more difficult for them to vote for Barack Obama.

"Particularly older people. They want change but they don't want to see things go too far," Murtha said.

So its not the whole are that is racist just those old senile racists.

You know I don't think most people understand what a Redneck really is. I will let Charlie Daniels explain as he does a much better job than I can.

Blackwater vs Somali Pirates?

Blackwater sends warship to Gulf of Aden

BLACKWATER Worldwide — the US private military contractor embroiled in controversy over its actions in Iraq — has sent a private sector warship equipped with helicopters to the Gulf of Aden, and is offering its services to shipowners concerned with Somali piracy.

The vessel, McArthur, is described as a multipurpose unit designed to support military and law-enforcement training, peace-keeping and stability operations.

The ship and its helicopters have the ability to patrol a commercial vessel’s route, thereby avoiding the need to hire security contractors to ride on board.

Can't wait to see some youtube videos of the Blackwater little birds chasing down the pirates on the open seas.

Yeah these guys some of whom are retired 160th pilots.

Obama's lead vaporizes

Obama's lead slips to 3 points

Obama leads McCain by 48 to 45 percent among likely U.S. voters, down 1 percentage point from Saturday. The four-day tracking poll, which has a margin of error of 2.9 points.

So with the margin error his lead could be as low as 0.1 ?

I think between The One revealing his socialist hand and the media going after Joe the plumber people are starting to get the idea of what he is all about.

Do not call means DO NOT CALL

What was the purpose of being on the National do not call list if the Obama campaign is still going to call me?

Further more if they did any sort of research they would know they are only going to piss me off further.

Kennewick reservist faces threats over landscaping

Lt. Burke Jensen was called five months ago to serve his country in Kuwait. Now he is being told to get an irrigation system and landscaping on his property as soon as possible or face legal action from the Oak Hill Country Estates Homeowners' Association.

"I really don't give a [expletive] where he is or what his problem is," said Chick Edwards, owner and developer of the 47-lot subdivision at the south end of Oak Street in Kennewick.

"This is a contract. I don't like the way his property looks. This clown gets to do what he wants, and I'm as mad as hell," he said.

I think Mr Edwards yard needs some special herbicide treatment. Please don't just use Roundup its for amateurs try something like total vegetation killer. Better yet a nice 5 gallon jug of Lasso herbicide the farm strength version meant to be cut with 1000 gallons of water. Don't worry about the water just pour it on straight.

Legend has it something like that happened when I was in high school and the yard had to be dug up with a backhoe 3 feet down and replaced after re sodding was unsuccessful.

Obama's girlfriend?

Obviously the Socialists and the Communists agree with me since they endorsed Obama over Clinton in the primaries.

These are the people he is affiliated with so imagine what his cabinet would look like.

He was caught and from the article he is possibly even dumber than I had previously thought.

Caught in an Iowa motel driving the same truck where he was apparently busy sending out emails:

Kentucky authorities have said Creek confessed to the killing in an e-mail Monday that was sent to the Bowling Green Daily News, Kentucky State Police and about 30 other recipients.

At least he confessed maybe that will shorten the trial and save some tax dollars.

Dems hope Singlaub is McCain’s Ayers? part 2

The story wasn't on MSNBC this morning when I first posted about this. I see they have taken their own spin on it to sensationalize it of course.

McCain linked to group in Iran-Contra case
Organization had ties to former Nazi collaborators, right-wing death squads


I also noticed that Maj Gen Singlaub's wikipedia page was edited to remove:

"Singlaub is credited with forcing the international governing body to renounce its overtly fascist Central American League branch."

http://rightweb.irc-online.org/gw/2815.html

Actually if you go to their website you will see he did a great deal to purge many of the undesirables from the organization. I doubt the man who parachuted behind enemy lines with the OSS to combat the Nazi's is likely to want to be involved with any Nazi's or Nazi collaborators.

Dems hope Singlaub is McCain’s Ayers?

Are they even remotely serious? An American hero is being compared to Bill Ayers a domestic terrorist? I think that is exactly the kind of company Senator McCain should keep. If only he would come out of retirement to take a cabinet position in a McCain Presidency. But I think he has already done more than his share for the country.

Major General John Singlaub

Here is just a small sample of his career from the Ranger Hall of Fame

Major General John K. Singlaub is inducted into the Ranger Hall of Fame for demonstrating extraordinary valor and unparalleled leadership during his 35-year Army career that included three wars. In one of the most daring missions of World War II, Lieutenant Singlaub nearly made Sua Sponte his personal motto by parachuting into Nazi occupied France to train, organize, and lead elements of the French resistance. Among only a handful of men to fight in both the European and Pacific Theaters of Operation, he then led Chinese guerrillas in penetration raids against Japanese Forces. Near war’s end, he led a rescue mission that parachuted into a Japanese prisoner of war camp on Hainan Island, off the coast of China, liberating over 400 Allied Prisoners of War. During the Korean War, he was chosen as the central figure in developing the Ranger Training Command at Fort Benning, GA, followed by combat tours in Korea as Deputy Chief of the CIA mission and a Battalion Commander in the 3rd Infantry Division. During the Vietnam War, he commanded the Joint Unconventional Warfare Task Force (MACSOG), one of the most storied units of that war, for over two years. During his long and distinguished career, Ranger Singlaub was awarded the Distinguished Service Medal with OLC, the Silver Star, the Legion of Merit with 2 OLC, the Purple Heart with OLC, and several additional U.S. and foreign decorations. General Singlaub’s unyielding dedication, courage, and keen sense of mission accomplishment embody all that is embraced by the Ranger Creed.

I was fortunate enough to meet Major General John Singlaub at a Rangers Infantry Companies Airborne of the Korean War reunion a few years ago.

Taking guns off the streets

And apparently putting them right back

A one-time police officer in western Kentucky has been sentenced to two years in federal prison for stealing guns from the evidence locker and selling them to local dealers.

Brian McKinney, 37, of Farmington, N.M., was also sentenced Friday to three years of supervised release by U.S. District Judge Joseph McKinley Jr. in Owensboro.

McKinney worked as the evidence custodian for the Madisonville Police Department between May 1, 2005 and Jan. 18, 2007 and admitted to taking and selling 85 guns from the evidence locker during that time.

Whatcha doing in New Mexico Brian? It seems like it took a long time for someone to notice makes me wonder how many guns they have stockpiled in there. Any cases go out the window if those were evidence? I would hate for someone to get off because of this ass clown. I wonder if I stole 85 guns if I would only get 2 years? Not sure if that's a good sentence or not with a guilty plea but its sure a black eye on a small town dept. Maybe they should check for missing electronics and see if ole Brian had an Ebay account.

In an Obama gun free utopia

only law enforcement would be allowed to have guns because only they have the training to handle such responsibility. I know every bushel of apples has at least 1 bad apple but I won't be surprised when this case goes to court and his fellow officers talk about what an obvious idiot this guy was.

Police looking for Kentucky deputy in woman's death

Kentucky State Police Trooper Todd Holder said a murder warrant has been issued for 41-year-old Deputy Randall Creek of Bowling Green. His ex-girlfriend, Debbie R. Rediess, 46, was shot to death outside her home Sunday morning in Smiths Grove, Holder said. The couple had dated for five years.

Hours before Rediess was shot, Creek sent an e-mail to The Daily News in Bowling Green describing his feelings for her. The paper reported that it was one of several letters Creek had written to the paper in recent years. In the letter, Creek said Rediess ended their relationship because he wouldn’t set a wedding date.

Yeah when I get dumped I usually turn to the local newspaper for closure. Obvious self esteem issues and someone thought giving him a gun and badge was a good idea? Just because they pass the state background check doesn't mean they are good to go. Good job vetting your deputy there sheriff.

Would have been helpful to have a picture of this armed and dangerous suspect but anyway:

Creek was seen leaving in a 1997 gray Ford Ranger with a military Kentucky tag: KY 13650. Creek has black hair and brown eyes, he's about 6'2" and weighs around 220-pounds.

Should you have contact with Randall Creek, police advise not to attempt to approach or apprehend him. Creek is believed to have in his possession at least one handgun and one shotgun.

If you have any information concerning this case or to the whereabouts of Randall A. Creek, please contact the Kentucky State Police Post in Bowling Green at (270) 782-2010 or 1-800-222-5555.

Racism card played

So apparently the Obama campaign must have been ill prepared to respond to Gov Palin calling him out on his association with Bill Ayers the domestic terrorist if the best they could do was throwing down the racist card via an AP flunky. How dare anyone question Obama on anything. If the shenanigans in Missouri are any indication of what would happen were he to be elected I'm sure this post would certainly land me in a reeducation camp.

Mudville Gazette has some flattering pics of Ayers if you have not seen the commie before. Ayers for Secretary of Education anyone?

Perhaps instead of taking the time to peck out a lame attempt at a story Daniels should just post this up:

What just happened?

McCain won't let his campaign talk about this so I suppose its up to the rest of us to spread the word.

h/t the Bronze

Imagine this

Obama gets elected and some of the nations worst liberals control the entire federal government.

Want to know what it looks like in 4 years? Look at the financial shape of California and Massachusetts today begging for federal loans. So when the federal government passes huge social programs (right after a new more comprehensive Brady Bill) and then it runs out of money what then? Well obviously they cannot scale back their socialist agenda so more taxes silly.
