Election results
Well, to quote Meat Loaf, two out of three ain't bad. The conservatives (well, to be more accurate, the GOP, which isn't always the same thing) won Virginia and New Jersey, but lost by a few points in New York. Alright, I'm not going to gloat since that always seems to precede another loss later on. Doug Hoffman, the guy no one heard of until Sarah Palin endorsed him a few weeks ago before his "GOP" rival dropped out and actually endorsed the democrat, did pretty well in NY's 23rd district considering where he started--which is pretty close to nowhere. But maybe New Yorkers weren't jazzed about him since he wasn't the most mesmerizing guy on the block. He was an accountant, so what are you going to do? I'm sure he was nice, but maybe next time he can buy a few Rush Limbaugh "No Limits" neckties to splash it up a bit.
OK, so what does it all prove? Depends on who you ask, like always. The Dems naturally play down those two losses, as Nancy Pelosi did by saying it was a "win" for them over all. She's funny that way, I guess. But there's no denying that Barack Obama going to bat for Corzine didn't do enough to save him. And Deeds in Virginia wasn't going to win even if Jesus had campaigned for him. He didn't, and he didn't.
The way I look at it, there's a push back--and a heavy one--starting up in the country. People of all stripes are not going to sit still for this immense federal spider that is trying to entrap us all and eat us. The 1,990 pages of Soviet-style "health reform" is so monstrous that no one in his right mind would dare sign onto it without reading it...yet I keep seeing where they're gathering politicians to do just that. Well, look for me on Capitol Hill tomorrow. I'll be there with other concerned citizens to say NO to this madness.
You can thank me later.
Why do I hate Little o (Obama)
This blog is started because someone commented "Why do you hate Obama?"
I really do not hate little o. What I dislike is his politics and how he is running the country. Notice I say country not Congress. He and his cronies are turning the United States into the Socialist States. If you don't believe me read everything he has done in the way of shoving things down people's throats. Lets start with healthcare, ("healthcare bill MUST be passed by August"). The Healthcare bill must have government bureaucracy, a healthcare Czar and other officials at the cost of billions of dollars, which by the way we do not have. I' am saying that healthcare needs reform, just not the way that little o and his cronies want.
Lets then talk about all the money spent on the so called stimulus packages. Have we seen a turn around in jobs? No! we still see jobs disappearing every day because we are not stimulating anything. So where's my stimulus package?
Let's see how about analysis paralysis. Can't seem to decide what to do about Afghanistan. It will take at least three weeks. Shit in Three weeks the whole world can be annihilated and then some. It also give time to the enemy to draw forces and form a new plan of attack towards US armed forces, IE more dead sons and daughters.
So do I hate little o? No, he's probably a very nice person in person. I don't like his kind of politics or how he is trying to turn this country to a socialist republic. It didn't work in Russia it won't work here.
BTW. little o (Obama) Big O (Oprah)

Emergency!
Ever see the comedy film,"The Russians Are Coming! The Russians Are Coming!"from the mid-60s with Carl Reiner, Jonathan Winters and Alan Arkin as the Russian submarine captain? Very amusing little throwaway flick. Anyhow, Arkin and his crew, stranded on New England soil when their sub runs aground just off the coast, try to get their craft back into service without being captured by the locals. At one point, in an attempt to control the situation in town that was quickly getting out of hand, Arkin coaches his crew--who didn't speak English, of course--to fan out across town and start shouting, "Emergency! Everyone to get from street! Emergency! Emergency! Everyone to get from street!"
I've finally concluded that this is the exact playbook of the administration: Rahm Emmanuel famously said to "never let a crisis go to waste." Not only did he mean to use any inevitable emergencies to quickly whisk by the public's notice the things you wanted to do in more relaxed times but couldn't because they're insane to start with, but he also meant CREATE apparent emergencies during which the same actions can be taken without the public's notice. Like the magician who tries to distract you with the pretty girl or the bird's flapping wings while he hides the ace of spades in his sleeve, Emmanuel and Obama are deft slight-of-hand guys who are pros. Real pros.
While we're good and scared of this supposed fatal development or that one (crashing economy, H1N1 "pandemic", a global warming Armageddon), he and his imps are busy taking over one sector after another of the economy. Ooo--look! A Fire over there! (Quick, R.E., take that bank over!) Oh! Over there! An earthquake that I inherited from Bush! (Quick, R.E., let's shut down Fox). Ahhh! Carbon dioxide is killing the polar bears! (Quick, R.E., Limit pay for executives!) Oh no! Get a flu shot! (Quick, R.E., shove socialized medicine down their throats while they're at the doctor). On and on until he achieves his goal: the entire subjugation of the country (the world?) to him and his minions. Free enterprise taken over by socialism. The gradual--and sometimes "punctuated"--growth of red colored takeover, Chicago-style.
No, I think America just might be waking up to his schemes. Let's hope so. If we keep our eye on the ball, we just might not fall for any more "emergencies." And I'm sure not about to "get from street" so he can assume control. Not on your life. We've got your number, BHO. It's not going to work. Magicians are not to be trusted. Least of all, you.
The Nobel Peace Prize
Nominating Obama for the Nobel Peace Prize in February of this year was like giving an overly praiseworthy review of a book you've read one chapter of.
OK, Rio
Did America really need to prevail in hosting the Olympics again? I don't think so. And it's not just because our lobbyist-in-chief, who I have an admitted bias against, went to bat for it. South America has never had the games, and we've had them four times. Rio is a wonderful city, so far as I can determine. It's certainly a popular and exotic vacation spot--something Chicago sure isn't. And do we really need to have the world peering in at an American city that's known for so much crap, from Al Capone to union corruption, to mayors Daley (both father and son), to the latest news of a street gang fight that led to an honor student's death? If we're ever going to host an Olympics again, let it be many years hence and in a city we don't have to apologize for. How about Knoxville, Topeka, or Roanoke? Too small, you say? Let them decide.
