SMALL TOWN AMERICA IS INDEED GETTING TO KNOW OBAMA

They're getting to know him, getting to know all about him...

I have to take issue with this headline: http://news.aol.com/political-machine/2008/09/12/obama-ad-ridicules-mccain-over-war-injuries/. In all fairness, I refuse to believe that Obama was making fun of McCain’s war injuries when he said McCain can’t even send emails.

Just as he confused the number of states in the Union when Senator Obama said he campaigned in all 57 of them, with one to go, not counting Alaska and Hawaii, and just as Senator Biden wasn’t being cruel when he told a paraplegic in Missouri to stand up, the much vaunted brilliance of Obama simply failed him again.

It turns out Senator McCain cannot type emails because he cannot type, not because he lacks secretarial skills but because of the consequences of his war injuries.

It’s sort of like Obama being unable to recall his close ties with Bill Ayers, Tony Rezko, Reverend Wright or Reverend Pflieger, or his inability to remember specifics about his years at Columbia University, or what precisely he did as a “community organizer/activist” in the Belly of the Chicago Beast, or his Muslim roomies in college.

Truth be told, Barack Hussein Obama, despite all the hype conjured up by the mainstream media, is just plain stupid.

More proof of that stupidity: He married Michelle, didn’t he?

THAT SEGMENT, AND GLOBAL WARMING, ARE OVER

THE GLOBAL WARMING MONEY PIT

The charade that is global warming continues to rear its ugly face.

That greatest boon to pseudo-scientists such as Al Gore is getting a new lie on life with vicious Hurricanes Ike, Hanna, and Gustav lately, not for any other reason than that they happened, as they always do. After all, isn’t that why we have a “hurricane season,” simply because there is a season for all things and not because they’re some freaks of nature caused by human industry?

Nevermind that 2006 and 2007 were virtually hurricane free. And nevermind that the nameless hurricane that last caused such devastation in Galveston occurred 108 years ago, decades before Gore’s daddy had that gleam in his eye that resulted in Albert Arnold Gore’s entrance into this world for the express purpose of saving this world, along with Nancy Pelosi.

This year’s natural resurgence will surely see the global warmists, led by celebrity warmist, Gore, call press conferences to declare, in effect, “See, I told you so!” He even blames global cooling on global warming, so go figure.

What’s in it for these people, anyway? In Gore’s case, what was in it was being catapulted from well-deserved political obscurity into a warm limelight he could never have dreamed of, to his An Inconvenient Truth to an Oscar to half a Nobel Prize to untold new wealth in which he and Tipper can revel in their energy-guzzling Nashville mansion and tool around in their ozone-destroying Lear jet.

But, forget Gore for a moment, as if we could, and consider Professor Joe Schmo, of the University of Southwest Hoboken, who lines up with other limelight, and government grant, seekers to climb aboard the Good Ship Global Pop to join Al in warning humanity that we’d better watch out. We’d better not cry or pout because Global Warming is coming to town....

THE UGLY, OLD WOMEN OF "THE VIEW"

The only thing less entertaining than a bunch of old, ugly women, (Elizabeth, excepted), thinking they're entertaining to anyone with a brain is a bunch of old, ugly women pretending they know something about foreign affairs, aside from who is screwing whom and where.

THE MULTIPLE FACES OF BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA

So, McCain has only two faces? That's not bad considering the multiple faces of Barack Hussein Obama!

There's his Christian face and his Muslim face, his confident face and his mewling face, his American face and his World Face, his 57 state face and his 50 state face, his intelligent face and his dumb face, his happy face and his vicious face,...

This guy has more faces than one can count!

THE ACLU, REUTERS, AND YOU

THE ACLU, REUTERS, AND YOU

Here we go again.

Ever on the alert to oppose any measures that would help insure America’s safety, the Anti Citizens’ Lives Union, aka, the American Civil License Union, aka, the ACLU is on the warpath again.

Reuters reports that the FBI has drafted new regulations regarding suspicious individuals who may be plotting terrorist attacks within the United States.

“Justice Department and FBI officials told a news briefing the changes would allow agents in some terrorism cases to use informants, do physical surveillance and conduct interviews without identifying themselves or their true purpose.” (http://www.reuters.com/article/domesticNews/idUSN1247176820080912?sp=true)

Since this is a Reuters report, we will have to await the implementation of the new rules on October 1st to determine how accurate it really is since Reuters, like most of the entrenched, liberal mass media, has never been know to pass up a story that reflects badly on the United States or on conservative Americans.

Witness just a few examples of when and how this propaganda agency posing as a news agency has distorted and misreported the truth in the past...
