Gallup: Americans' Attention to IRS, Benghazi Stories Below Average Gallup ^ | 05/16/2013 | Frank Newport

Posted on Friday, May 17, 2013 1:35:37 PM by SeekAndFind

Slim majorities of Americans are very or somewhat closely following the situations involving the Internal Revenue Service (54%) and the congressional hearings on the attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya, and its aftermath (53%) -- comparatively low based on historical measures of other news stories over the last two decades.

These results are based on a May 14-15 Gallup poll. Despite extensive news coverage of these stories in recent days, the level of attention being paid to each is below the average 60% of Americans who have closely followed more than 200 news stories Gallup has measured over the past several decades. Additionally, Americans appear to be paying almost exactly the same levels of attention to both stories, despite the relative newness of the IRS story during the time in which this survey was in the field.

Republicans More Tuned In

Republicans are much more likely to say they are following these news stories closely than are independents or in particular Democrats. There is a 21-percentage-point gap between Republicans and Democrats in terms of following the Benghazi story closely, and a 27-point gap on the IRS story.

Benghazi whistleblower: ‘I’ve been demoted’ for challenging Susan Rice’s claims The Washington Examiner ^ | 5/8/2013 | Joel Gerhke

Posted on Thursday, May 09, 2013 2:10:07 PM by SSDecontrol

Gregory Hicks, former deputy chief of mission in Benghazi, told Congress today that a State Department official began criticizing his job performance, and he was ultimately demoted, after he asked why U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice attributed the Benghazi attack to an anti-Islamic Youtube video.

“In hindsight, I think it began after I asked the question about Ambassador Rice’s statement on the TV shows,” Hicks said of the criticism during a House Oversight and Government Reform Committee hearing on the attack today.

Today on Tommy T's Obsession with the Freeperati - Cheesy Burgher in Paradise edition

Morning, everyone!

Barbara and I are currently cooling our heels in Playa Del Carmen at an AI that stands alone in not paving the jungle over - the Iberostar Quetzal !

Instead of vast expanses of marble and concrete, they built around the jungle in a U-shape, leaving the center full of Agouti, Coatamundi, peackocks, flamingos, Swans, iguanas, and several famalies of howler monkeys. I

t's like walking through a zoo, only the animals roam freely to look at the amusing people.

Combine that with an incredibly intelligent long-term planning decision by Playa Del Carmen to prohibit buildings taller than three stories (and a perfect white sand rockless beach), and you have a pretty nice place to hang out for a couple of weeks.

Republicans pull plug on Mark Sanford Politico ^ | April 17th, 2013 | Alex Isenstadt

Posted on Wednesday, April 17, 2013 2:02:44 PM by KantianBurke

National Republicans are pulling the plug on Mark Sanford’s suddenly besieged congressional campaign, POLITICO has learned — a potentially fatal blow to the former South Carolina governor’s dramatic comeback bid.

Blindsided by news that Sanford’s ex-wife has accused him of trespassing and concluding he has no plausible path to victory, the National Republican Congressional Committee has decided not to spend more money on Sanford’s behalf ahead of the May 7 special election.

Blindsided? Knowing that scumbag's history and they're acting surprised? Too late to save the House seat. Epic fail.

UPDATE: The governor’s office issued a statement Monday afternoon: "Gov. Sanford is taking some time away from the office this week to recharge after the stimulus battle and the legislative session, and to work on a couple of projects that have fallen by the wayside. We are not going to discuss the specifics of his travel arrangements or his security arrangements."

The whereabouts of Gov. Mark Sanford have been unknown to state officials since Thursday, and some state leaders are questioning who is in charge of the executive office.

He has been the most outspoken critic of Obama. He has been frequently mentioned as a possible candidate for President in 2012.

Now he is missing. This is scary. This is not some anonymous Gov. from a minor state. This is one of the top five plausible replacements for Obama in the next election.

Let us hope that it turns out to be something like him visiting the troops.

Worst case is that it’s an Arkencide. Or a kidnapping/ drugging / setup designed to neutralize him in place with a ‘honey trap’.

CPAC Turns Away Pamela Geller

Posted on Saturday, March 02, 2013 3:23:08 AM by Bratch

For the last four years, Pamela Geller of AtlasShrugs.com and the American Freedom Defense Initiative have held events at CPAC featuring guests she invites to discuss the influence of Islamism on America. But this year, the American Conservative Union (ACU) has no room for Geller or her message.

[...]

In years past, the events were standing room only thanks to their popularity, but that apparently was not enough to counter pressure brought to bear from somewhere to exclude Geller’s message.

Even Tea Party favorite Allen West wouldn't support investigation of Obama's eligibility Coach is Right ^ | 4/5/13 | George Spelvin

Posted on Friday, April 05, 2013 10:39:13 AM by Oldpuppymax

Tea Party favorite former US Congressman Allen West admitted to investigator Lt. Mike Zullo that political expediency was more important to him than supporting the investigation of Barack Obama’s eligibility for office. “I would really have to think about this, but I don’t think so,” West said in response to Zullo’s question: ”Would you support an individual that steps forward to bring this (document fraud) to the forefront?”

The officer heading up Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s Cold Case Posse investigation went to the Conservative C-PAC enclave with radio talk host Carl Gallups to tell any and all listeners about the criminal law enforcement probe of birth certificate document fraud. (1) Zullo described his conversation with West as a face to face, direct on conversation with the Tea Party favorite to whose political campaign so many trusting Americans gave their hard earned dollars.

The retired Lieutenant Army Colonel said to Zullo that spending his political capital...

I've learned that how people handle the little things in life is a good predictor of how they'll handle the big things. I thought West might be one of the good ones, but now?

"This is something I’ve struggled with throughout my presidency," said Obama. "The problem is that I’m the president of the United States, I’m not the emperor of the United States. My job is to execute laws that are passed."

Today on Earljam's Obsession with the Freeperati - No True Conservative edition

Good morning, you commies, and G*d Bless America!

Well, now that I've been outed by the Palin-worshippers, there's no damn reason for me to pretend any longer.

My name's Earljam, and your homosexualist-worshipping asses are mine.

Let's look at some Earl pearls of True Conservative wisdom, ya wanna?

Sarah Palin and the End of an Era: Split from FNC highlights fade of Tea Party as well as her own The National Journal ^ | January 27, 2013 | Jill Lawrence

Posted on Monday, January 28, 2013 1:43:03 AM by 2ndDivisionVet

The news that Sarah Palin will no longer be a paid contributor to Fox News puts an exclamation point on the end of an era, or at least a chapter, in U.S. political history. She could land somewhere else, and she still has her Facebook friends, but it’s hard to imagine she’ll find a more visible or influential platform than Fox.

The former Alaska governor and 2008 vice presidential nominee has been fading from the scene for some time, as she inadvertently highlighted when she complained on Facebook during the Republican convention in August that the network had canceled her scheduled interviews that night. Her brother, Chuck Heath Jr., told Alan Colmes last week on Fox Radio that his sister is “kind of laying low right now,” though he wouldn’t or couldn’t say when asked why.

Once the face of an energetic and politically potent Tea Party movement, Palin is leaving Fox at a time when polls show the Tea Party at an all-time low in both membership and favorability. Her departure also coincides with calls by some leading Republicans for their party to stop saying things that erode the GOP brand and turn off voters in droves.

Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal said bluntly this week at a Republican National Committee meeting in Charlotte that the GOP needs to stop being “the stupid party,” and former Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour said he agreed. The two were talking in particular about losing Senate candidates Todd Akin of Missouri and Richard Mourdock of Indiana, both of whom made inflammatory (and in Akin’s case, flagrantly ignorant) comments about rape.

But Palin, with her flamboyant rhetoric, has stoked her own disproportionate share of controversies. This is the woman who, after all, coined the term “death panels” to describe discussions between patients and physicians...

Aren't there any real men out there willing to take that braying simpleton slut down a notch?

To: 2ndDivisionVet

Well, the ugly truth is that Palin lost a tremendous amount of political momentum and much of her grassroots infrastructure (best seen in such sites as Organize4Palin and Conservatives4Palin) when she told Mark Levin that she was not running for President. Those groups and others are still around, but much of their energy and membership has simply dissipated over the past year. Moreover, PalinTV (which was a strong effort to bypass the MSM and to get Palin's unedited words directly out to the public) no longer has its own web presence but is now just a Youtube channel.

That's because she's as astute as a guy setting himself on fire and as informative as a talking bird.

Her next stop is pay-per-view slots on YouPorn.

I'm not sure that she will ever be able to recover what she has lost by her decision, unless she runs for and wins Begich's seat in 2014, which would revitalize her political standing and give her a springboard for 2016.

Yeah - watch the stupid trollop do a one-and-a-half gainer into an empty pool.

As far as the TEA party movement goes, it is in fact in some disarray now, mostly at the hands of the corrupt, crooked, GOP-E, which fought it harder than the Rats. Since Palin chose not to run, it did not have any real leaders to coalesce around, and was successfully infiltrated by GOP-E hacks and operatives, who then tried to direct its energy to Team Romney. I remember some of FR's resident chest beaters claiming two years ago that the TEA party was self-sustaining and did not need any leaders. Well, that has proven to be wrong-headed, and so here we are, stuck with Obama for four more years (or more), and a fetid, feckless GOP-E now doing his bidding in Congress.

To: MestaMachine

No, I don't think that it's dead, but dwindling. How many people on FR have been complaining lately about how their local TEA party groups have pretty much fallen apart despite their best efforts (including mine)? Where are the rallies with the Gadsden flags? Why was Romney the Republican nominee, and why is Obama still the president.

Going into denial is a surefire strategy for continued defeat.

I believe the idea of prohibiting a vet with PTSD from having a gun was proposed by some liberals. As you noted - the symptoms can vary greatly.

Bob Woodward trolled us The Daily Caller ^ | 3/28/13 | Matt K. Lewis

Posted on Thursday, February 28, 2013 2:49:06 PM by Nachum

Twitter exploded last night, after Bob Woodward revealed that White House official had warned him he would “regret” saying Obama had moved the goal posts on sequestration.

Predictably, conservatives latched onto this, as it confirmed our suspicion about the Obama Administration’s “Chicago-style” of politics. A lot of mainstream journalists bought into this, too — reflexively believing anything the great Bob Woodward says.

Of course, Woodward (who was expert at trolling for publicity before the internet even existed), benefits greatly from the publicity (nothing sells books like controversy).

The WWE's Tea Party Wrestler Is Making Conservatives Hit the Mat Atlantic ^

Posted on Thursday, February 21, 2013 11:09:41 PM by Arthurio

CONNOR SIMPSON 5,918 ViewsF EB 20, 2013

The WWE's new bad guys in town are not-so-loosely inspired by the Tea Party, and that has conservative commentators not-so-quietly complaining that the company is bringing back a movement already under siege from Karl Rove — this time in one of the country's most curious of conservative spotlights, and as a couple of outwardly racist xenophobes who want to send Mexicans back across the border. Even if that was kind of the whole point.

On the February 11 episode of Monday Night Raw — frequently the highest rated cable show in the country — the fake-wrestling franchise re-introduced "Real American" Jack Swagger, after a few months off, with a new gimmick. He had longer, messier hair, a mean scowl, and a newfound hype man. Swagger's faux-manager, not so accidentally named Zebadiah Colter, sported a bushy hunter's beard and wore a beige vest as he yelled to the crowd: "What's wrong with America?" Colter then explained that he "doesn't recognize" today's America. He said he saw people with faces "not like mine" and heard people that "can't even talk to me," and he screamed out again to the Nashville audience and the Americans at home: "Where did all these people come from?" And then Colter, who's used other surnames to fit his gimmick in the past, threw out some catchphrases familiar to any Tea Party observer — "We, the people" was prominent — and made a point to stress, over and over, that he and Swagger were "real Americans." Oh, did the crowd ever boo. Swagger and Colter are supposed to be the WWE's big new bad guys, and they drew "heat" from the crowd, as wrestling people say. They hated him.

REPORT: Fox News Is Taking Karl Rove Off The Air (Over election night meltdown) Business Insider ^ | 12/04/2012 | Grace Wyler

Posted on Tuesday, December 04, 2012 6:57:34 PM by SeekAndFind

New York's Gabriel Sherman reports that Fox News is scaling back airtime for Republican pundit Karl Rove, in what appears to be a reprimand for Rove's meltdown during the network's live election broadcast. 

Sources told Sherman that Fox News chief Roger Ailes has ordered his staff to bench Rove and his fellow GOP pundit Dick Morris, two of the network's most vocal partisan voices whose predictions turned out to be spectacularly wrong. According to Sherman, producers must now get permission before booking Rove or Morris on Fox shows. 

The move comes as Fox takes steps to rehab its image in the wake of Republican defeats this November. Rove, in particular, has been widely mocked by members of both parties, both for his onscreen tantrum and for the abysmal performance of his American Crossroads super PAC.

 EXCLUSIVE The 24-year-old man who threatened to commit Sandy Hook type crimes in L.A. claimed he was hell-bent on leaving "dead kindergartners" in his wake ... yet he will not be prosecuted.

Kyle Bangayan posted threats on Facebook the same day as the Newtown shooting ... and claimed he was targeting L.A. schools ... this according to a search warrant obtained by TMZ.

I read a few news stories about this, and apparently he did not have guns at his apartment. They found guns at his parent’s home, where they arrested him. It wasn’t clear to me whether the guns were owned by his parents or him. I think the fact that they found nothing threatening in his apartment, in conjunction with whatever conversations they had with him and his parents, were what led to his release. I’m not saying I agree with that decision, but it does appear to be a little different story than at the surface.

gay men have a bitchiness to them that straight men do not,

which to me makes them absolutely not qualified to serve in the military. And what was the result of that bitchiness? Flat out treason. And how did the Obama cabal respond after the arrest of Manning? By immediately overturning DADT.

Norquist: 'Tea Party 2' Backlash if Obama Sends Nation Over Fiscal Cliff

Sunday, December 2, 2012 04:09 PM

Grover Norquist, the founder of Americans for Tax Reform, predicted a tea party backlash that would dwarf the movement’s success in the 2010 midterm elections if President Barack Obama pushes the nation over the “fiscal cliff.

“Tea Party two is going to dwarf tea party one if Obama pushes us off the cliff,” warned Norquist on NBC’s “Meet The Press.”

When asked “Are you over?” by host David Gregory, Norquist responded, “That was last week’s news.”

Gingrich: GOP needs to be "inclusive"

In the aftermath of Mitt Romney's presidential loss last week, Newt Gingrich is joining the cadre of Republicans calling for the Republican Party to more actively reach out to a more diverse electorate, arguing on Monday that the party needs to become more "inclusive."

"I think we need to be inclusive, and I emphasize the difference between inclusive and outreach," Gingrich said Monday morning in an appearance on ABC's "The View." "Outreach is when five white guys have a meeting and call you. Inclusive is when you're in the meeting. And I think we have to understand to be inclusive."

Gingrich, who was joined by his wife Callista on the show, argued that Republicans had "misunderstood the American people" in 2012, and that the GOP can't just wait until 2016 to try to broaden its reach.

"The Republican doctrine of highly paid consultants spending hundreds of millions of dollars on 30-second ads doesn't build a party," he said. "The Republican Party better not wait until 2016. The Republican Party better rethink in 2013 how we're going to deal with the country's issues and do it in a way that the average American looks up and says, you know, those are folks I'm willing to trust with my future. We lost that."

He added that "there were a whole series of fundamental things that were really wrong" with how the GOP framed the 2012 election, including the fact that the Obama campaign so successfully appealed to non-white voters.

She reminds me of Dennis Miller, who virulently savaged Reagan years ago, and then found out that there’s money to be made by tweaking the conservative data base. No matter what anyone says, Miller, Coulter, and bozos like O’Reilly have their conservative feedbag on and don’t give a rat’s a$$ about the conservative cause.

For Coulter to have cheerleaded for Gov. Krispy Kreem and Romney into a so-called Conservative base just showed where her allegiance lay. And may she and the rest of her buddies go to hell.

Steve Schmidt: GOP must muzzle Rush Limbaugh
Politico ^

Posted on Wednesday, November 07, 2012 12:58:51 AM by Windy City Conservative

Republican strategist Steve Schmidt said early Wednesday morning on MSNBC that it’s time for Republican leaders to stand up to “extreme statements” and “nonsense” coming from within the GOP, including Rush Limbaugh.

“Now, people calling for revolution and these extreme statements — when I talk about a civil war in the Republican Party, what I mean is, it’s time for Republican elected leaders to stand up and to repudiate this nonsense, and to repudiate it directly,” Schmidt said.

Just the opposite is the grim reality . Don’t say you haven’t been warned.

Rush,Glenn Beck ,Mike Savage,Hannity would be wise to make plans on how to get out of the country on really short notice & without government permission, the key words being without government permission failure to do so could lead to being in government custody for thought crimes to a bullet in the back of the head.

I really hope people stop obsessively trying to discredit polls. They aren't gospel, but in the last two elections they have been fairly accurate, and if anything, slightly republican leaning.

Go back and check the RCP final poll average for the 2010 Senate races - 20 of 23 correctly senate seats picked correctly. Of the the 3 that were incorrect, 2 dems won instead of the predicted republican, and the last was Murkowski beating Miller in Alaska. And obviously, polls were better than GOP cheerleaders this time as well.

The dumbest thing I hear around here is "no one polled me."

God has veto power? Or just an unending and eternal filibuster?

May you make every policy they make fail and may you turn the hearts of the multitudes against them. May you thwart every evil deed they try to divide this nation with.

Thanks for nothing, Christie. O’Reilly is saying obama gained far more by Sandy than what he lost by Benghazi, and that if obama wins it will be because of Sandy. O’Reilly has all but called the election for obama.

That Dam* O’Reilly said that if Mitt loses Ohio it is all over for him and Obama wins. Now...great to say that...when so many in the country haven’t voted yet where the polls are still open. O’Reilly makes me sick.

Today on Tommy T's Obsession with the Freeperati - Poll Position edition

Well, its now one day until the Election, and the Poll threads have been exploding over at Freeperville.

I have my own prediction - I'm taking a week off posting, unless Schadenfreude dictates otherwise.

Let's suit up and spin that airlock door, shall we?

In reverse order from oldest to newest - Galluping along!

Gallup Tracking: O-50/R-44 Gallup ^ | 9/26/12 | Gallup

Posted on Wednesday, September 26, 2012 12:12:45 PM by tatown

7 day tracking: O - 50/R-44

3 day tracking: O - 51% approve/43% - disapprove

I don't know what to make of this. Up until about 4 days ago, Gallup had the race tied. There was a sudden shift to Obama on either Sat or Sun which showed up first in the approval number. I thought it was a one day good sample for Obama but that day rolled off the three day rolling approval tracker today and his approval number actually went up....?

Accuracy as in they had Obama winning bigger than he did but they were still accurate in that Obama won. I don’t really care if they’re off a few points the fact is all these polls keep showing Obama ahead. And how exactly with the price of gas, and food, and the cost of debt, and the bad employment numbers along with the fact that NOBODY really likes his Obamacare plan does this bastard get 50 to 51 percent job approval. Romney is not running an effective campaign if this is the case. Is he afraid to be tough?

Face it. We’re squabbling over a few points. Another Freeper made a good point. With all the mess all over the world, Romney should be up by 5 at least. Gas and food at record highs. Our embassies being overrun. An American ambassador was KILLED for god’s sake. This race should be over. Shame on Romney for such as sorry ass campaign.

From a "related" thread discussing the last R/O debate:

(Jim Robinson)

To: Yaelle

The system is not handling the increased loads and we do not know why yet. John says the system is not getting overloaded, the db is not overloaded, the cpus are mostly idle, the load averages are low, the db load averages are low, just reaches a point where throughput stalls. I’m not a techie and I have no idea how to fix it. I thought maybe we could add another server or more RAM or replace some older servers or something, but I guess John doesn’t think that will do it. There’s something wrong in the system software or the configuration but he’s having trouble finding it.

And I’m really upset too, but there’s not a freaking thing I can do about it until John gets it figured out.

Thanks.

Dinesh D'Souza resigned as president of The King's College after a magazine story revealed that he was engaged to another woman while still married to his wife of 20 years. The Board of Trustees of The King's College, a Christian institution based in New York, accepted his resignation Thursday.

I think Christian conservative leaders do more harm to Christianity when they get caught in these sexual escapades than all the trash liberals and atheists throw at it combined.

Forget Obama, Dinesh was one of the leading Christian apologists in the country defending Christianity(anywhere, anytime), as well as objective morality, and now he is just another hypocrite who got caught with his pants down and has not only humiliated himself but has made Christian conservatism a national laughingstock, again.

To: hosepipe

An honorable man doesn't make it his business to point out the moral shortcomings of others while banging some woman who was nine years old when said man married his current wife. It's also pretty clear he didn't just resign - he was no doubt told to, lest the college rightfully pressure him to return the 7 figure salary he collected while spending his time attending to his own personal business rather than the school's. Not only is he an adulterer, his love interest is one as well, and she's been married all of 10 months. The man disgusts me - just another charlatan fleecing the flock while completely ignoring the message that he touts.

I have to ask this very seriously, do you know that this site has been completely unusable to perhaps thousands and thousands of others during either the first Presidential or Vice-Presidential debate and for an hour or so after their respective conclusions?

This has never happened in previous election cycles during debates, election night results or during large breaking news events. Slow? Yes. Unusable, no.

I've had multiple tabs opened for the debates this year and the FR one just wheel spin, wheel spin, wheel spin... blank page, no progress bar moving on the address bar. It's just the internet equivalent of dead air for hours.

If you're getting this during a VP debate I fully expect this site to be dead and inaccessible from 6PM-4AM election night.

Last Night I Cried

Posted on Thursday, September 27, 2012 10:32:28 AM by SandyLynn

Last night, I gave in and cried. As the Mom of 3 kids, I feel hopeless. The polls show that Obama is winning, whether we try to deny it or not. I keep asking myself "Who are these so-called Americans who will re-elect this disaster we've had in office for almost 4 years?" I am scared. Scared for the lives my children will have to live, thanks to the resident currently occupying the White House. No, I will never call him my president..in my opinion, you have to EARN that title. And the man who currently occupies the White House is much more concerned about being popular with the "in" crowd..you know, the Hollywood Liberals. Who cares that gas prices have tripled since he took office? That food prices have skyrocketed? That most of us who work for a living are struggling from paycheck to paycheck while the lazy people live off of our hard work? Hopeless. I keep going back to that word..because I feel as though we have nowhere to go. And shock. Because I cannot believe we have so many stupid Americans in our country! Don't get me wrong. I will vote, and cast my vote for Romney. But really, is it enough? I don't think so. Fellow FReepers..is all lost, as I think it is?

Once Driver of 'Cain Train,' Herman Cain Now on Board for Romney Yahoo News/ABC OTUS News ^ | 8-27-12 | RUSSELL GOLDMAN

Posted on Tuesday, August 28, 2012 3:47:21 AM by kingattax

One-time GOP primary front-runner Herman Cain, who exited the race amid spiraling allegations of sexual infidelity, hears no call from the campaign trail after his failure to make it all the way to this week's Republican convention in Tampa, Fla., he said today.

"No, I don't [miss campaigning,]" Cain, a conservative radio host and former pizza-chain CEO who momentarily led the pack of GOP candidates before dropping out in December, told Terry Moran of "Nightline."

"It's always bittersweet when you compete in anything, but I said from the very beginning, whoever gets the nomination, I am going to support them fully," Cain said on the sidelines of the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla.

Cain, who briefly tapped into a party then frustrated with Mitt Romney, was not invited to speak at the convention, a snub he says doesn't offend him. "I'm not going to be participating with the formal convention program, but it's not about me," he told Moran. "It's about giving exposure to some young stars who are running for office."

Cain's road to endorsing Romney, set to be nominated later this week, was a long one. After dropping out, Cain, 66, initially endorsed "the American people," before throwing his support more directly to former House Speaker Newt Gingrich. It was not until May that Cain endorsed Romney.

Bibi Shows the UN a Bomb

 Rush Limbaugh.com ^ | September 27, 2012 | Rush Limbaugh

Posted on Thursday, September 27, 2012 4:36:35 PM by Kaslin

RUSH: Benjamin Netanyahu is delivering his speech at the United Nations General Assembly. I just tuned into a bit of it here during the break, and it's awesome. It's very, very well done. It's an exceptional speech, all about Iran's nuclear weapons and how they differ from the Soviets, for example, in having nuclear weapons and why.

 BREAK TRANSCRIPT

 RUSH: Benjamin Netanyahu, who may be the closest thing we have to a Ronald Reagan or Margaret Thatcher today, Benjamin Netanyahu is at the United Nations. He's giving a great speech, and he's now using a visual aid. He's got a picture of a bomb, a circular bomb with a fuse coming out of the top, and he's explaining where Iran is. No interpreter needed for this. He is explaining to the dictators at the UN how it all works. It's fabulous. (laughing) It is great. I've never seen this. I've never seen a visual aid at a United Nations General Assembly major address like this.

 

 

Neither have I.

 Here's a tweet from a journalist, Chris Hayes: "Bibi veering into self-parody with a drawing of a bomb with a lit fuse." So the media's making fun of Netanyahu for his visual aid of the bomb, that he's veering into self-parody. And actually, he's just trying to explain to the essence of a bunch of second graders in this room what he's talking about.

END TRANSCRIPT

Posted on Wednesday, September 19, 2012 6:31:34 AM by timlot

Asked what he thought of Romney's remarks, Ryan told the Nevada station: "He was obviously inarticulate in making this point." Ryan went on to say the point the Republicans are making is that, under the Obama economy, government dependency is up and economic stagnation is up.

Asked if he thought Romney regrets the remarks, Ryan says he thinks Romney would have said it differently, adding, "that's for sure."

That's quite some smirk on Mitt Romney's face as he walks away from the podium in Jacksonville, Florida, having just woven in criticism of Barack Obama to his reaction to the murders in Benghazi. The photograph was taken by Charles Dharapak of the Associated Press, and I suspect it's going to be one of the most significant images of the campaign. Maybe Mr Romney was just unlucky, but on the other hand… are you surprised? Honestly?

*********************

I found this particularly interesting because yesterday while listening to Barack Obama's first press availability on the Libya murders, it struck me that his voice still rang with the same undisguised narcissism it always conveys (there was no hint of emotion for the death of Americans).

Romney smirking?

 The idea of "Mitt's smirk" as the new media and blogosphere smear is telling.

I can't post the photo (AP) but it's at the source.

Akin Says He Has No Plans to Quit Missouri Senate Race ABC News ^ | August 20, 2012 | Chris Good

Akin said he has no plans to withdraw.

“I don’t know that I’m the only person in public office who’s suffered from foot-in-mouth disease here, and this was a very, very serious error. On the other hand, there are so many good people in Missouri who nominated me, and they understood my heart,” Akin said.
...

Akin said no Republicans have called him and asked him to withdraw from the race.

“No one has called me and said, ‘Todd, I think you should drop out,’” Akin said. “No one has said that. But I gather people are saying that in the media, but they didn’t specifically call me and tell me that.”

What he meant was that fewer than one-tenth of one percent of abortions are the result of rape, but that’s not what he said.

This is exactly why Claire McCaskill ran “anti-Akin” ads in the Republican primary dog-whistling Democrats to cross over and vote for him.

Unfortunately for Claire he blew up sooner and more thoroughly than she had planned.

I don't give a damn that this guy said something politically incorrect.

No, he said something shit-stupid.

If conservatives are not only willing to throw him under the bus, but seem to take a certain amount of glee in doing it, then we are already lost. Leftist thinking has won out.

Tellit to Limbaugh.

Leftists never apologize, never give in, and they never tear down their own people in power no matter how many mistakes they make. That is why they are winning. Meanwhile, every time some Republican says "macaca", "conservatives" are all too eager to tear him down and cede the win to the leftists.

That's because "macaca" is a racist slur.

Seems to me that there are quite a few conservatives, including Freepers, with no heart at all. Resisting the tyranny of political correctness is hard, and they are just looking for an excuse to enter the warm embrace of submission. Oh, a Republican said something that the media can misconstrue?

Misconstrue??

That's never happened before! Let's take this opportunity to be every bit as petty and irrational as the lefties so that we can look around at our leftist masters and say "See? I'm cool too!"

Posted on Sunday, August 12, 2012 5:59:54 AM by sf4dubya

Congratulations to Mitt Romney on his choice of Congressman Paul Ryan as his running mate. President Obama has declared that this election is about “two fundamentally different visions” for America. Goodness, he’s got that right. Our country cannot afford four more years of Barack Obama’s fundamentally flawed vision. We must now look to this new team, the Romney/Ryan ticket, to provide an alternate vision of an America that is fiscally responsible, strong, and prosperous – an America that understands and is proud of her exceptional place in the world and will respect those who fight to secure that exceptionalism, which includes keeping our promises to our veterans.

However, like all good daydreams, I am eventually forced to come back to reality and realize that Sarah Palin will not be coming through those convention doors later this month - unless as a correspondent for FoxNews.

Christie: 'Bigots' attacking me on radical Islam

(Family Security Matters) New Jersey Governor Chris Christie, often described as a “rock star” in the Republican Party, has finally addressed the criticism of his courtship of Islamists. On July 24, Christie held an Iftar dinner at the Governor’s Mansion, attended by Imam Mohammad Qatanani, a Hamas-linked cleric whose deportation is sought by the Department of Homeland Security. Christie reiterated his support for Qatanani and made the case to his Muslim audience that he is their ally by ridiculing the “bigots” attacking him.

Bigot:
: a person who is obstinately or intolerantly devoted to his or her own opinions and prejudices; especially: one who regards or treats the members of a group (as a racial or ethnic group) with hatred and intolerance

This definition of a bigot certainly describes the Muslim religion, especially towards their intolerance (including murder) of Christians and women.

Why do anti-Conservatives feel free to label anyone who dislikes the Muslim intolerance to Christians and women as a bigot?

Christie has jumped the shark. He is exactly the type of pseudo-conservative that does more harm than good. By claiming to be a conservative while espousing liberal views, he gives the media a big stick with which to beat real conservatives. In this case, the media don’t even have to read between the lines. Christie is deliberately accusing law abiding, patriotic Americans as bigots in order to curry favour with a minority group he sees as a potential source of votes. I hope he loses his bid for re-election.

Georgia lumberyard owner hammers Obama on 'You didn't build that'
FOX News ^ | 8/1/12 | Maegan Vazquez

Posted on Wednesday, August 01, 2012 1:47:53 PM by Kartographer

President Obama's message to entrepreneurs that "you didn't build that" prompted one Georgia business owner to respond with a not-so-subtle retort.

"I built this business without gov't help. Obama can Kiss my ass," reads the sign outside Gaster Lumber & Hardware in Savannah, Ga. Owner Ray Gaster posted that and two similar ones at all three of his company's locations in response to Obama's comments during a speech to supporters in Virignia, which struck a nerve with small business owners around the nation.

Ray Gaster poses in front of one of his "you didn't build that" response signs.

Homeland Security suspends immigration agreements with Ariz. police
The Washington Times ^ | June 25,2012 | By Stephen Dinan

Posted on Monday, June 25, 2012 1:31:56 PM by Hojczyk

The Obama administration said Monday it is suspending existing agreements with Arizona police over enforcement of federal immigration laws, and said it has issued a directive telling federal authorities to decline many of the calls reporting illegal immigrants that the Homeland Security Department may get from Arizona police.

Administration officials, speaking on condition they not be named, told reporters they expect to see an increase in the number of calls they get from Arizona police — but that won’t change President Obama’s decision to limit whom the government actually tries to detain and deport.

“We will not be issuing detainers on individuals unless they clearly meet our defined priorities,” one official said in a telephone briefing.

The official said that despite the increased number of calls, which presumably means more illegal immigrants being reported, the Homeland Security Department is unlikely to detain a significantly higher number of people and won’t be boosting personnel to handle the new calls.

A Californian, an Arizonan, and a Mexican national are walking along the beach at Padre island, and discover a half-buried oil lamp. One quick rub later, a Djinn appears and grants them each one wish.

The Mexican national says:  "I wish to be with my family, and for my villiage to have sufficient food and money for no one to ever have to go away to work again.

*BOOM* - he disappears. "Wish granted" says the Djinn.

The Arizonan is next. He says: "I'm tired of all these illegals trying to come into my state - I want a wall around it to stop all the wetbacks out and keep Real Americans like me in.

*BOOM* - he disappears. "Wish granted" says the Djinn.

The Californian gets a thoughtful look on his face and says to the Djinn: "Tell me about that wall, please."

The Djinn says: "It is a hundred feet high and thirty feet thick, and is completely impregnable!"

The Californian smiles, and says:  "OK.  Fill it with water."

That is some pure crazy right there.

Agreed. So what are ya gonna do about it?

Jim Robinson to me: "You're headed for a ZOT"

Me: "Zot This, Fool!"

I was a bit too embarrassed to share this in my other thread. But I will. Robinson leaves his phone number at the bottom of the screen on the Home Page there. I made the mistake of calling him and asking him why I was banned. Lets just say getting fired from my first radio job back when I was 18 years old was a more pleasant conversation. He yelled at me. Insulted me. I couldn't understand some of what he said. He never answered my question. He called me "Mr Young Conservative". Told me that I was banned and to never come back and then screamed good bye !

.

Once JR realized Saint Sarah bowed out of running, after she took fools like him on a merry ride, he picks statist New World Order Newt as worthy of dropping all those so called principles he claims he had for.

Why? Cause Sarah voted for Newt.

If conservatives on his websire thought he had gone batshit crazy, they were right. He should have gotten behind the only one left that shared his socon beliefs and helped push him over the finish line against Romney.

But he didn't. The voters did not want New World Order Newt in spite of the love affair he and his harpychicks tried to foment. You see, it wasn't JR and his chicks that were wrong, it was all the voters in all the states except GA and SC.

Oh really? I have to think that his intentions were really screwed up. And for that, he deserves a failed Griftathon. He can feed the kool aid to the dumbos that still are fool enough to attach their lips to his behind. Hope thay have a lot of cash.

Well, Freeperville was down for over 14 hours Wed-Thu, so whatever they're spending those bucks on, it ain't servers.

Ha ha.  Seems like ol' Jimbo's paltry beg-a-thon results are driving him f***ing batshit. (Even more than usual)

If it possible this guy is just losing it mentally ? Dementia ? Worse ?

When I had to stay in a nursing home for awhile there were a few older people who were mean and critical of others for no reason what so ever. The nurse had to warn me about it the first day and I just tried to stay away from them !

This next one is rather prescient, considering that it comes from a former Freeper:

Jim Robinson had to spend two months begging and pleading and whining to his own followers in order to meet his last (reduced) Begathon goal but that same site "almost by itself" could overturn the will of millions of voters in primary elections?

Not when at issue is a third rail of American social commentary: race.

Recently I wrote a piece on race and voting patterns, using as a lede the story about how white births now account for less than 50 percent of the U.S. total for the first time in history. And while most respondents agreed with my analysis, some reacted predictably: Uncomfortable even hearing about race and/or frightened by what lies ahead, they rationalized away obvious facts.

And here is one: You cannot understand where our nation is headed ideologically without grasping the link between racial identification and voting patterns — and demographic changes that will yield Democratic hegemony.

********************************

This guy is one of the only people in the media honest about this issue. And I think he's right. It won't be easy for Romney to win.

If you look at the electoral map, states reliably or likely for Mitt Romney account for only 170 electoral votes while states reliably or likely for Barack Obama account for 243

That implies the GOP has a chance to take Wisconsin. If not, make it 253. Romney would pretty much have to run the table the rest of the way.

Though the GOP has already morphed into the Democrat party circa 1990, today's Democrat party will always out-democrat them, becoming increasingly radical. In spite of the Bush, Rove, Rubio etc prattle about 'reaching out' the GOP is doomed.

IMO the only way this will not play out in the total destruction and replacement of the American Experiment is a total economic collapse and radical restructuring of the welfare state, which is underwriting the demographic shift.

Yes - you heard it here first, folks - Freepers using white supremacy websites to cite "true conservatism".

Of course, the neos and the paleos are still fighting over that last deck chair:

To: iopscusa

William F Buckley was never a neoconservative. You don't know the meaning of the word.
It wasn't Bill Buckley than passed the 1965 immigration act, it was the unholy alliance of Northern liberals and Southern progressive klansmen.

It hasn't been the useless Rich Lowry, who has run the American Dhimmi... sorry American Conservative. This publication started by Pat Buchanan and Scott "Jesus was a Palestinian" McConnell has dedicated itself to foreign policy and the destruction of a single nation state, Israel. It has catagorically refused to deal with the national question in America, and rarely deals with immigration. Instead it imports writers from the Nation to write on foreign policy ad gets writers to sill for Ralph Nader in 2004 and Barack Obama in 2008.

Then we the only publication to run Steve Sailer, Vdare.com . The problem is that Peter Brimlow's pet project also runs Paul Craig Robert's who went insane after 9-11. PCR hates actual neoconservatives above all else. He doesn't care about the White Doe, but about his white whale, neoconservatives and Israel. This traitor to the white race wrote: “If I could rid America of neoconservatives, I would accept the entire population of Mexico.” http://www.vdare.com/articles/why-should-immigrants-and-amnestied-illegals-benefit-from-affirmative-action-quotas

Then we have the John Birch Society conspiracy loons you seem to like. The people support Ron Paul, who believes in no immigration restrictions. The JBS utopians want to get rid of illegals and reduce immigration without an iota more Federal or State power. That isn't policy. That's the complacency of delusion and the fall back of conspiratorial thinking when reality hits.

Let me be perfectly blunt, the fever swamps of conspiracy and magical thinking have turned paleoconservativism and Bircherism into the handmaiden of the left on the immigration issue, by making themselves irrelevant. No CIA money was needed.

Hispanics will be democrat, but will bring about the opposite of the utopia American liberals dream of. The American liberal’s most important ideals include: Women’s rights,

the environment,

promotion of homosexuality,

Fuck the homosexuals! (gently at first, and then really hard and fast)

planned small families, and equality.

Fuck equality - when the gomers who post on this site think you're equal, they'll tell you.

The hispanic culture embraces sexism, animal fighting, could care less about the environment, proud of expressing their hostility for gays, have huge families, and systematically give better treatment to those with lighter skin.

Mitt Romney Says He Could Wage War on Iran Without Congress' Approval
The Alatnic ^ | June 20th, 2012 | Conor Friedersdorf

Posted on Wednesday, June 20, 2012 8:59:50 PM by Mozilla

On Face the Nation on Sunday, Mitt Romney said that if elected president he wouldn't have to get congressional permission for a military strike on Iran.

To quote him directly (emphasis added):

I can assure you if I'm president, the Iranians will have no question but that I will be willing to take military action if necessary to prevent them from becoming a nuclear threat to the world. I don't believe at this stage, therefore, if I'm president that we need to have a war powers approval or special authorization for military force. The president has that capacity now. I understand that some in the Senate for instance have written letters to the president indicating you should know that a containment strategy is unacceptable. We cannot survive a course of action which would include a nuclear Iran we must be willing to take any and all actions.

All those actions must be on the table.

The Republicans (conservatives) I know are members of the ‘Productive Class’.

Bachmann’s financial disclosure forms indicate that her personal stake in the family farm is worth up to $250,000. They also show that she has been earning income from the farm business, and that the income grew in just a few years from $2,000 to as much as $50,000 for 2008. This has provided her with a second government-subsidized income to go with her job as a government-paid congresswoman who makes $174,000 per year (in addition to having top-notch government medical benefits). “If she has an interest in a farm getting federal subsidy payments, she is benefiting from them,” Sandra Schubert, director of government affairs for the Environmental Working Group, told Gannett News Service in 2007, when the subsidies to Bachmann were first publicly disclosed.

But Bachmann isn’t the only welfare recipient on Capitol Hill. As it turns out, there is a filthy-rich class of absentee farmers—both in and out of Congress—who demand free-market rules by day and collect their government welfare checks in the mail at night, payments that subsidize businesses that otherwise would fail. Over the past couple of decades, welfare for the super-wealthy seems to be the only kind of welfare our society tolerates.

Chuck Grassley, the longtime Republican senator from Iowa who warns his constituents of Obama’s “trend toward socialism,” has seen his family collect $1 million in federal handouts over an 11-year period, with Grassley’s son receiving $699,248 and the senator himself pocketing $238,974. Even Grassley’s grandson is learning to ride through life on training wheels, snagging $5,964 in 2005 and $2,363 in 2006. In the Grassley family they learn early how to enjoy other people’s money.

 

They understand how to create value and generate economic growth.

They don’t do that from their ‘mother’s basement’.

Ron Paul supporters arrested as La GOP Shreveport convention splits in two
examiner.com ^ | June 2, 2012 | James Plummer

Posted on Tuesday, June 05, 2012 3:17:51 AM by Casie

Chaos erupted in Shreveport today as police officers arrested state GOP delegates who support Ron Paul for the party's 2012 presidential nomination.

The dispute arose after the state party's central committee issued "supplemental rules" earlier this week concerning the delegate selection process. A press release from the Ron Paul campaign this afternoon referred to the 11th hour changes as "illegal rules."

After fights in the Rules Committee Friday, state party chairman opened the convention moving to pass the new rules, when the majority of delegates moved to elect a new convention chair. When Villere refused to yield the dais, the majority elected a new chair and turned their chairs. As this was happening, the Villere faction convinced the Shreveport Police Department to arrest some of the Paul delegates holding microphones for "trespassing."

During the forcible arrests, Shreveport police dislocated the hip of the gentlemen in the video here, identified by the Paul campaign as State Central Commiteeman Henry Herford Jr. of Franklin Parish.

(video) http://www.examiner.com/video/shreveport-pd-at-la-gop-convention-arrest-injury

**********************************

Louisiana politics!

Henry Herford Jr. was elected by an overwhelming majority as new convention chair. Mr. Villere, who had appointed himself the convention chairman, refused to yield. When delegates began turning their chairs around, Mr. Herford rose to call the convention to order. Mr. Villere then convinces police to forceably remove Mr. Herford, who is injured and sent to the hospital! Video at source. (My first post. Member since 2004!)

4. Paul supporters make motion to elect new Party Chairman, succeed in voting in their guy
5. Old State Chairman refuses to leave position
6. Paul supporters turn around seats, begin their own convention
7. Old State Chairman orders police to remove Paul supporters and their elected Chairman

I really don’t see how Paul supporters were “disrupting” the convention, unless showing up and voting in person(where the ballots can’t be fixed) is disruptive.

But you have to agree that Villere and friends can't simply ignore elected chairmen they do not like and then use excessive police force to enforce their will.

It makes Romney supporters look like strong-arm elite Rhino thugs and further fractures the party. It makes Paul's people look like champions of conservatism fighting the old Republican establishement.

I want to also mention that after the chaos of the convention, one the Ron Paul people (I can't remember her name) called the Moon Griffon radio show to say they came to the convention in the spirit of reconciliation and the intention of conceding some seats to Romney supporters.

Today on Tommy T's Obsession with the Freeperati - "Hello, suckers!" edition

Good morning, everyone!

The Endless Freepathon is over, and with almost a month to go before the next one! (pay up, Kibitzer)

Gullibility is high on the list of Freeperati characteristics, so let's kick off with -  Are we not suckers?  We are FREEPO!

Are Hannity, Rush, and the big talkers playing us for $$$? (vanity)

Do you ever get the feeling that Rush and Hannity don't really care who wins, just as long as their dollars keep rolling in from us tea party saps.

Besides Mark Levin, what prominent talker has gone out on a limb and endorsed true conservative candidates? Everyday we have to here Hannity interview the John McCains of the world. If he truly believed in the conservative movement, wouldn't he be out there trumpeting Richard Mourdock and Don Stenberg like Levin is?

As for Rush, he is more interested in commercializing the tea party movement with his "Two if by tea" than promoting it.

Besides Mark Levin, they're all sellouts just like the Republican leadership...looking out for their own career over the well being of the country.

Eric Cantor with his support of Richard Lugar and Adam Kinzinger in their primaries is consolidating moderate, establishment support behind his ambition to be speaker some day. But Hannity is more interested in a softball interview with him than evicerating him for his actions.

There are very few leaders in our movement.

That would be because you're Authoritatrians for the most part (with some fake libertarians thrown in for flavour). The Dems have always been the Party of grassroots, and the Repubs have always been the Party of STFU and do/think what we tell you to.

Also, self-analysis doesn't seem to be high on your list of priorities - just sayin'...

In a word ......................................YES !

We stopped listening to Rush long ago, as he bumped bellies with those who rolled out the red carpet for tens of millions of illegals, during war time, as he babbled about feminist and golf.

It became unbearable.

Of course the sheep jump in, loudly braying that being sheared isn't really that baaaaaad.

To: teg_76

What’s your beef with Rush? He doesn’t do interviews,

so that part of your argument is out and he came as close to a Primary endorsement he has ever had with Santorum. I don’t feel played at all.

Ya... we just hate it when people make a name for themselves and make money by promoting their ideas.

Greedy Capitalists promoting ideas just because it sells.

someone should stop them

Uh, yes. Notice how quick they fold up and alter their views once their paychecks are in jeopardy.

One way to look at it is we are using them to get our ideas out. If they get too far from home, they go the way of BOR and leave the radio.

Fox has their own rules, as we saw with Glenn Beck. Now he can be as crazy as he wants to be, but while at Fox, he was "handled".

And now he's handling himself.

In a marketplace of ideas, the bad ideas go away eventually. CNN. MSNBC, and others are examples of that. There is absolutely nothing to stop you from blogging, becoming a writer, or becoming a talk show host. To keep an audience, you would have to keep some opinions close to your vest.

Death penalty for being brown, ferinstance.

Savage and Stein prove that. Levin is the only one that can call someone a liar, or communist and get back on the air the next day. I think hat's because he's a lawyer and leaves a way out. Look at what's happened to Anne(sic) Coulter. I bet her next book isn't quite the best seller she is used to.

Rush and Levin are the only ones I listen to. Occasionally Beck...tho I’m growing tired of the ‘spectacular revelations’ he has

(i.e. the Buffett connection to the pipeline deal. FReepers knew about that MONTHS ago!!!)

Hannity drives me nuts and I turn his show OFF as of late. He’s a toadie for the RNC....panders to the establishment with this “can’t we all just get along” attitude.

Particularly pissed about his lecturing to us about Breitbart’s death and that HE knew about Andrew’s heart condition and that we should lay off about the autopsy.

Most annoying with him is his pandering for the ‘black vote’ with the guests and callers he has on. It’s like....”well I know you’re going to vote for Obama......but can I sway you and your kids by sending you a beautiful arrangement of flowers from Pre-Flora and toys for the kids?” It’s disgusting. I’m sorry, No different from what the Democraps promise them. And that’s my damned opinion. So, there.

Freepers then speculate about their hero jumping into a lifeboat and leaving them to go down with the ship....

To: teg_76

Yes, but Rush to his credit is pretty open about it. I don’t think he is joking one whit about bolting if the bottom drops out, and why not? Who would not if the option were there? He has also paid his dues and busted the crap out of many a leftist when he is not, in his own words “carrying water” for the Geriatric Old Plantation.

Hannity . . . Don’t like him for a number of reasons so I will withold comment. I don’t think I can be objective about him.

Would you explain a little bit more about Rush bolting? It’s been a good 2-3 weeks or more since I listened to his show. Is he talking about leaving the U.S.? I’d love to know when he discussed this.

He said he’d go to Costa Rica of all places. That was back in 2010 before the passage of ObamaCare.

So - let me get this straight - Viagra-boy is wanting to move to Costa Rica, which has national health care?
