Just how out of touch with reality is Obama?

Honestly...this guy is pissed-off. There are a lot of things that the President of the United States should be mad about:

1. Osama bin Laden is still on the loose. You remember him...killed 3,000 folks 8 years ago.
2. Soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines are being killed in Afghanistan and Iraq.
3. Iran is working on a nuclear weapon; North Korea already has a few.
4. We dropped the charges against the USS Cole killer.
5. Unemployment in the US is 9.7% and will probably go higher.
6. The budget deficit is $1.3 trillion this year alone -- and will go higher.
7. 1 to 2 million people marched on Washington, D.C. today demanding smaller government -- while Obama scurried off to Minnesota so he wouldn't have to face us -- the citizens, the angry mob, the astroturfers.
8. His aunt may be deported.
9. His dog is a pansy.

Wow...there is a lot to be pissed off about.

But here is what he spouted off about today in Minneapolis -- the fact that Americans don't want a new government program that will wipe out health care as we know it in America. Are you freaking kidding me?

But know this: I will not waste time with those who have made the calculation that it’s better politics to kill this plan than improve it. I will not stand by while the special interests use the same old tactics to keep things exactly the way they are. If you misrepresent what’s in the plan, we will call you out. And I will not accept the status quo as a solution. Not this time. Not now.

We are closer to reform than we have ever been. But this is the hard part. This is when the special interests and the insurance companies and the folks who want to kill reform fight back with everything they’ve got. This is when they spread all kinds of rumors to scare and intimidate the American people. This is what they always do.

Seriously...we have our military at risk every day, Iran is getting the bomb, North Korea's whack-job has one...and he's pissing and moaning about health care? HEALTH CARE? The thing that 90% of folks in the US are satisfied with?

And he won't do these things? What about us? What about what we want? The poor, dumb working folks out here in flyover country? I won't do squat that he wants. As I said yesterday, Mr. President, you can go straight to hell.

This guy needs an attitude adjustment. And not just a V-8.

Speaking of Whoppers...(no, I don't mean Burger King)

Obama just can't get off of his talking points that "we'll cover everyone" and "it won't add one dime to the deficit". Life just doesn't work that way, no matter how much they smoke in the White House and over in Pelosi's office.

I really love the fact that Rep Joe Wilson stood up and called Obama out on his lies. And he was a class act as he apologized immediately afterward. Look, we've all blurted out something in the heat of the moment and regretted it later. We don't regret the substance of what we said; we regret that we said it in an inappropriate way or place. Been there, done that.

I recall a day of football practice in college...the coach announced that we were all going to run double the normal number of wind sprints because we'd been lazy. I turned to the guy next to me and said, "Sh*t a brick!". Wouldn't you know it...there was dead silence as soon as I started talking. So my whispered expletive was heard by all. We had to run double the double number because of my big mouth.

Well, Obama is in the same place. He just can't break out of his same bullshit message. And regular Americans are having nothing of it. Neither, it seems, is the Congressional Budget Office (CBO).

I love political cartoons. I wish I was as clever as those who think them up.

Mr. President -- Go to Hell

He said nothing new; he took shots at everyone who disagrees with him (like ME); he complained that the cable news industry was spreading lies. Blah blah blah. Nothing new here; move along. He told so many whoppers that the whole speech became a lie.

I call BULLSHIT on his entire office. He can go straight to hell.

Baby Killed by NHS Plan - Coming to a Hospital Near You

This is plain wrong on so many levels.

A woman had a premature baby in England, and medics refused to provide any medical attention for the baby, who died:

Medics allegedly told her that they would have tried to save the baby if he had been born two days later, at 22 weeks.

In fact, the medical guidelines for Health Service hospitals state that babies should not be given intensive care if they are born at less than 23 weeks.

The guidance, drawn up by the Nuffield Council, is not compulsory but advises doctors that medical intervention for very premature children is not in the best interests of the baby, and is not 'standard practice'.

James Paget Hospital in Norfolk refused to comment on the case but said it was not responsible for setting the guidelines relating to premature births.

A trust spokesman said: 'Like other acute hospitals, we follow national guidance from the British Association of Perinatal Medicine regarding premature births.'

The doctors and nurses should go to jail, and the head of the hospital should join them.

This is why we are very concerned in the US about "death panels". We are concerned that we will not receive any care at all, not just that the quality of care will go down. Even Obama said we should get a pill instead of having surgery. We see this happening elsewhere under a public health plan, and we want no part of it.

Why does the left not understand this simple truth?

(Oh, they understand it alright. They just don't let things like "facts" stand in their way.)

I don't care if Obama offers me a lifetime of never paying taxes again: I will not support nor will I submit to his "public option". He can kiss my ass.

Israel tells Obama to Pound Sand

I believe that Israel is our best ally (hell, our only real ally) in the Middle East. Say what you want about Bahrain, Qatar, etc. They are all nice enough. But Israel is a democracy, and we owe them our support. Of all the foreign aid that we send abroad each year, we get more for our bucks with our Israeli friends.

So, naturally, Obama tries to piss them off by demanding that they stop building settlements. Not asking -- oh no. The Anointed One never asks. All to appease the freaking Palestinian terrorists, don't ya know.

This story about Barak (that's Ehud, not our Prez) ok'ing new construction warms my heart.

Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak approved the building of 455 housing units in the West Bank, defying U.S. demands for a freeze on settlement construction.

By the way, a great lesson we could learn from Israel is the wall. Israel has built a security wall on the West Bank, and it works. We should put one on our border with Mexico.

Van Jones' Resignation Letter (what he really thought)

I thought I'd give you the "behind the scenes" look at what ole Commie Van was really thinking as he drafted his resignation letter. Here's the quote of his letter, along with what I'll bet he wanted to say.

"I am resigning (I quit, dammit) my post at the Council on Environmental Quality, effective today (lessee...is today Saturday or Sunday? I want this to go out after the deadlines for the newspapers. The last thing I want to see on the front page of the Sunday NY Times is "Commie Resigned to his Fate").

On the eve of historic fights for health care (you thought HillaryCare was a fight? I was gonna show you a real fight...) and clean energy (yeah, like that's gonna happen), opponents of reform have mounted a vicious smear campaign against me (waaaaa...they even...waaaaa...quoted me!). They are using lies and distortions (and...waaaaa...FACTS!) to distract and divide (ok, what's 37 divided by 12...oh never mind...I can't divide anyway, so they might as well do it).

I have been inundated (last time I was in a date like this was 1975) with calls - from across the political spectrum (even Bob Beckel backstabbed me!) - urging me to "stay and fight." (or was it get on the next flight?)

But I came here to fight for others, not for myself (I know that's right...I got beaten up when I was a kid. Now I was gonna have a big ole budget to fight bullies with!). I cannot in good conscience (if I had one) ask my colleagues (those a**holes) to expend precious time and energy defending or explaining my past (hell -- I can't even 'splain it). We need all hands on deck, fighting for the future (I'm enlisting in the Navy, so I thought I'd try out that metaphor -- what for? I don't know...3rd base).

It has been a great honor to serve my country (and make that big salary) and my President (who even let me fly on Air Force One!) in this capacity. I thank everyone who has offered support and encouragement (I'll buy that one guy a beer...maybe Henry Gates and that cop will join me). I am proud to have been able to make a contribution to the clean energy future (by farting away my chance to serve). I will continue to do so (serve, that is, not fart), in the months and years ahead." (And I'm going to Rev Wrights church service now. I want to learn more cuss words than a-hole.)

(Fist Bump to Michelle!)

Put a Fork in Van Jones

Cause he's done. He now has a little time on his hands to prove how good a green thumb he has. Putter around the garden, grow a few green tomatoes. In the morning we'll hear Obama crying about how it's a shame "we" let the right-wing media run off such a "wonderful fellow". Uh huh. Freaking commie.

Oh, and by the way...kudos to Glenn Beck for bringing this out into the open. About 10pm CDT tonight I went out to CNN.com, Time.com, and MSNBC.com, and there was not a word on any of those sites about Jones that I could find. I'll bet this resignation will catch a lot of the left off-guard -- they didn't see it coming because it wasn't being covered in the MSM. You really had to be paying attention to Fox and the conservative blogs to hear or read anything about it.

Next up: Nancy Pelosi will step down from the Speaker's post. Something will "trigger" it.

Herb Kohl -- Doesn't Represent YOU

I went onto Herb's website and signed up so that I would be notified when or if he'd have the cojones to hold a townhall meeting here in SE Wisconsin. I received no email notice, nor did he advertise a meeting or put his schedule up on his website. I had to read about it in the paper the day after the meeting. Lily-livered liberal.

So I went up on his website and clicked on "contact Senator Kohl". Here's what I wrote:

You sorry piece of horse manure. I signed up on your website to be notified when you were going to be here for a Townhall meeting. The date was not posted on your website, nor was I notified via email. Imagine my surprise when I had to read about it in the local paper.

You are a coward who will not face your constituency. I loath you and will do everything in my power to let all my friends know not to support your re-election.

I want you to retire and go on the health care bill you are trying to shove down our throats.

You spineless weasel.

My Response to Our Local Politician

Had a local politician come to the door today. Wanted to know where I stood on health care. I know him, and he knows me. He just didn't know I lived here. So he said "hi" and "how's the wife" and "have you seen so-and-so lately". Then I asked him where he stood on Obamacare. He kinda hemmed and hawed, then turned it around on me. I said, "Don't pull that on me...tell me straight out where you stand".

He told me he supported universal care, but was concerned about the price of a public option. I asked him if he'd vote for it, and he said yes. I told him that's exactly why I can't support him. We shook hands, said "see you at the Veteran's Day memorial", and off he went.

Oh, yeah. I gave him one of these. He said "good for you".

Now I'm a Domestic Terrorist?

Because Obama says so...

All 50 States are coordinating in this – as we fight back against our own Right-Wing Domestic Terrorists who are subverting the American Democratic Process, whipped to a frenzy by their Fox Propaganda Network ceaselessly re-seizing power for their treacherous leaders. (emphasis mine)

You have to head on over to MyBarackObama.com to see the whole thing, but this quote about ME was what caught my eye...

Now, I'll be the first to admit that I'm a proud right-winger. I'm to the right of Dick Cheney.

But now the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES and the Democratic National Committee are calling me a terrorist? ME? Are you freaking kidding me?

Peggy Noonan Nails Coffin on Obamacare

When your teenager wrecks the car, you ask, "What happened?". If you got a straight answer -- "I screwed up and took my eyes off of the road" -- you might get mad, but I think you'd be proud that your teen was being honest and taking responsibility for the screw-up. If you got a long-winded answer, something like "Well, you see Dad, it was like this -- I was talking on my iPhone to Joe, and he told me a joke, and I laughed so hard I was crying. Then this car came out of nowhere and I slammed on the brakes..." Your bullshit detector would be beeping loud enough to wake up your Crazy Uncle Ernie from his beer-induced nap on the couch. You get the picture.

Well, Peggy explains why all of our B.S. detectors have been going off lately about Obamacare. The explanations of what's in THE BILL and what's not in THE BILL just make my head hurt. Sounds like a day at the Barnes and Noble when everyone's purchase is setting off the beeper at the door --

And when normal people don't know what the words mean, they don't say to themselves, "I may not understand, but my trusty government surely does, and will treat me and mine with respect." They think, "I can't get what these people are talking about. They must be trying to get one past me (emphasis mine). So I'll vote no."

True. Kinda like the time back during the 70's gas rationing when I tried to explain the empty tank on the car to Mom: "Someone siphoned it out during the night -- yeah, that's it".

Secession Without Representation

From Michelle Malkin's site, a reader posts:

American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950’s, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly,this relationship has run its course.Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right so let’s just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

Here is a model separation agreement:
Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.

We don’t like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate guns and war, we’ll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military.

You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O’Donnell (You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them)…

We’ll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens. We’ll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO’s and rednecks. We’ll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood ..

You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we’ll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us.. You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we’ll help provide them security.

We’ll keep our Judeo-Christian values.. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N.. but we will no longer be paying the bill.

We’ll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.

You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors.We’ll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right. We’ll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National Anthem. I’m sure you’ll be happy to substitute Imagine, I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing, Kum Ba Ya or We Are the World.

We’ll practice trickle down economics and you can give trickle up poverty your best shot. Since it often so offends you, we’ll keep our history, our name and our flag.

Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I’ll let you Answer which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.

Sincerely,
