cannot sleep forever
And I can’t find any comment from notorious anti-car tosser and alleged economist Duncan Black, the Philadelphia-based apologist for Paul Krugman, regarding this absurdity.
What’s up with that? I mean, Black’s blog is obviously a money-maker, so is he going to be, as Joe Biden says, patriotic —or is he gonna fight the power?
The President is either enormously incompetent at being an American or he is deliberately giving his support to the enemies of Western Civilization.
I am shocked at the degree of Obama’s anti-Americanism. And to even THINK that about an American President? It’s like Obama is the embodiment of Marx’s elaboration on Hegel’s belief in the repitition of History; in the American context, Obama is the farce to Lincoln’s tragedy.
Democrats and other sorts of anti- and post-American garbage who now advocate for “religious tolerance” are morally repugnant liars. These anti-Christian bigots and anti-Semites on the Left have no idea what religious tolerance means. For them to speak on it as they though they do is an obscenity.
Did you hear this ridiculous liar of a President we’re stuck with say this [yester]day? (emphasis mine)
President Obama made what his advisers believe were his first public comments on the U.S. Postal Service on Tuesday, basically knocking its performance during his health-care-themed town hall in New Hampshire.
He said an audience member raised a “legitimate concern” about how a government-run health-care program might affect private insurers.
“My answer is that if the private insurance companies are providing a good bargain, and if the public option has to be self-sustaining — meaning taxpayers aren’t subsidizing it, but it has to run on charging premiums and providing good services and a good network of doctors, just like any other private insurer would do — then I think private insurers should be able to compete. They do it all the time.”
Then he invoked the Postal Service:
“I mean, if you think about it, UPS and FedEx are doing just fine, right? No, they are. It’s the post office that’s always having problems.”
That comment provoked laughter from the audience.
“That comment” makes absolute nonsense of his socialism. In fact, it very succinctly implies that Government entities are prone to acceptable levels of inefficiency and waste because it is typically assumed that they will be subsidized indefinitely, thereby making “competition” an open fiction.
It does not matter that Obama says the public option “has to be self-sustaining” because that’s a lie and he knows it’s a lie as he tells it.
The best thing that could possibly happen to this guy right now is some disaster or crisis to make him “look” Presidential. Otherwise, and day by day, the recklessness and arrogance of this Lying Narcissist on the subject of health care will erode his position with the moderates and other kinds of polite straddlers who are still too stubborn to admit that they got took when they voted for him.

I like Skip Gates as far as I know him from his work on PBS, but the stink over his recent arrest for disorderly conduct marks him for the prissy little celebrity bitch he is.
And for the Lying Narcissist to hold forth on a hugely unimportant incident concocted by some academic friend of his, of which he admitted to not knowing enough? Really? On a night you were supposed to be defending your dream of socialized medicine? Why would you do that, Barry? Didn’t you once claim that your initial and protracted silence on the stillborn Iranian Revolution of 2009 was because you wanted to know what you were talking about first? Why did you make an exception here? Are you some sort of ward heeler —straight representin’? Or are you the President of the United States? Try remembering your place.
It’s fine for these performance artists to pull their stunts or go into hysterics for the sake of an audience. You don’t expect from them more than that. But, because God is a vengeful god, Barack Hussein Obama is also the President —and an American would expect someone in that position to not abuse the bully pulpit for what was essentially a point of personal privilege last night.

It’s no surprise that the Obamatons would be unable, after more than seven years of falsely claiming that George W. Bush was a new Hitler who was trampling the Constitution and running a police state, to recognize an actual police state killing protesters in Iran. These Democratic partisans are as ignorant and cowardly as the narcissistic liar they elected to the White House. None of them is capable of standing up against authoritarianism because they wish to have that same system implemented here in the new socialist paradise they seek for America.
History will condemn Barack Hussein Obama for backing the mullahs in the Iranian Revolution of 2009.

Just think about all the eerie similarities between the Religion of Global Warming and certain monotheisms we know:
There’s certainly prophecy.
As well as eschatology.
And a seemingly inexhaustible measure of zealotry.
Did I mention disputes over doctrine and the constant striving for orthodoxy, generally?
Could also mention tithing and rituals and martyrdom and all the lying.
Lying? You bet. There’s a lot of nonsense that one is obligated to believe. Credo quia absurdum. But the hippies don’t see it my way. Instead, they believe themselves to be heroic saviors of the Earth because of where they come down on the “issue” of carbon dioxide.
This carbon tax that Henry Waxman and other discredited Californios are trying to implement is a giant fucking Socialist power grab. Wherever you live, tell your Congressman that you don’t want to fork over a mortgage payment’s worth of taxes every year to some United Nations-managed treasury of carbon-meritoriousness. This is a scam, dude. A post-American economy-destroying scam intended to enrich the Democratic Party and its collaborators.

The excremental Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has apparently decided to put his country ahead of party, according to this poorly-edited AP report:
President Barack Obama’s allies in the Senate will not provide funds to close the Guantanamo Bay prison until the administration comes up with a satisfactory plan for transferring the detainees held there, top Democrats said Tuesday.
And in a further break with Obama, the Senate’s top Democrat said he opposes transferring any Guantanamo prisoners to the United States for their trials or to serve their sentences. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates has said 50 to 100 Guantanamo detainees may be transferred to U.S. facilities.
“I can’t make it any more clear,” Reid said. “We will never allow terrorists to be released in the United States.”
I think it was Mitch McConnell who said Sunday last that no city in this country would welcome being the venue for the trials of these Mohammedan savages (my term, not his) because it would make those cities targets for al-Qaedists and other representatives of the Religion of Peace. I think that’s a great point. Giving them any sort of domestic profile also gives the filthy hippies who apologize for them a chance to do some of their performance art for the cameras. And I don’t care to see these jihadists exalted by the post-American neo-socialists, so nuts to that, fella.
I wonder what got into Reid, though. It’s not like him to consider the American point of view in the War against Islamofascism, so there must be an interesting backstory.
Or a sudden premonition of his own domestic dhimmitude.

The basic problem facing the Democratic Party elites with regard to torture is that they don’t know what to do with it now that it’s served its purpose in fundraising and in vilifying the former Administration. To go as far as they have with hyperbole and self-righteousness against Bush the Younger is to leave them deeply vulnerable. After all, these people have hitched their wagon to a narcissistic liar who makes Bill Clinton seem a model of partisan fidelity and personal loyalty. If they’re stupid enough to do that, then they’re stupid enough to persist with their moral preening and untenable hypocrisy.
I don’t care what happens to Pelosi or what these truth and reconciliation committees do about anything. I don’t care about so-called “torture” because I don’t believe that waterboarding or sleep deprivation or any humiliation inflicted on criminals defines American Civilization as these filthy rodents in the Democratic Party would like you to believe it does. To them, History exists to be abused and to serve self-abuse. Let’s talk about scalping Indians and lynching negroes. Let’s talk about pandemics and genocide, deliberately caused or not. Let’s live in a perpetual fog of self-loathing nonsense and never take stock of what this civilization has done to improve the lot of all mankind.
Incidentally, it’s important to remember that when Democrats talk about how evil and un-American waterboarding is, they’re actually defending mass murderers from the fear of death by drowning. They’d like to leave it as a more abstract accusation, but we’re talking about actual Islamofascist murderers, including Abu Zubaydah and Khalid Mohammed. Yes, we did make those men fear for their lives. And what of it? The moral perversity of Americans apologizing for these murderers at the expense of our national security and the dignity of those who have chosen to defend us is disgusting.

Yesterday, Bob Schieffer asked partisan hack/United States Senator Pat Leahy whether he would seek to subpoena Cheney et al to testify before these truth and reconciliation committees that the brownshirts are demanding —and Leahy said no. Huh? Right there at the very end of his remarks in the most matter of fact way. It was rewindable.
Isn’t the whole point of a show trial to make the defeated party or enemy of the (present) state squirm for the cameras and the bloodlust of the New Totalitarians? I guess Leahy figures he can achieve much of what he wants in political and propaganda terms whether the former Vice President is there in the flesh to defend himself or not.
But if demanding accountability —the biggest whore among words ever, it turns out— is so terribly important, then how can Leahy and these other politicizers of national security now pull their punches thrown at Cheney? How could they fail —after making it their stock in trade for years— to demand Donald Rumsfeld’s head in the most public forum possible? If there were crimes committed, it would be a moral failure of the Democratic Party —would it not?— if they did not use the power they now have to deliver justice to their enemies.
You know, the enemies that succeeded in keeping our country safe from a further terrorist attack for more than seven years.
Always remember: when a Democrat speaks out against the so-called torture perpetrated at the behest of the Bush Administration, he is demanding that mass murderers themselves be protected against the fear of death. In the context of historical fact, that is exactly what Democrats are doing. They are upset because Khalid Sheik Mohammed was caused to fear for his life! We made the man who plotted to murder thousands of Americans believe he was being drowned! That is the state of the post-American mind: we must defend our enemies against ourselves in the interest of the world’s “good will.”
Despicable nonsense.

The surest evidence that what we are witnessing in this country is a Socialist power grab is the Democrats’ pursuit of the carbon tax. It is a measure that, by any measure, is unnecessary and highly ideological. The Leftists have convinced themselves, however, that their ideology in this regard is entirely justified by Science. Therefore, they seek to impose a tax on fossil fuels that will immediately burden the Little Man in the name of [higher reason]. And to what other end and into whose pockets? Well, uh, we’ll get to that later. But Science is God and God says let there be penance paid and sins remitted. The United Nations, I guess, will become the Arbiter of Nations and administer the programs funded by this disgusting tithe that is to be extracted from the pocketbooks and wallets of the American People.
To the Marxist, every truth may be divined by a deconstruction of the economics of a particular society, but there are equally essential cultural considerations that are never fully weighed by these people. There are morals and mores and folkways that do not submit to the quantifications and the soulless calculations of the America-hating Leftist because he pursues only [economic and scientific truth].
But do not doubt the turbulence of the thought now coursing through the ranks of what Nixon called the Great Silent Majority. I predict there will be moments of full volume to come when real Americans will speak out against this crime and demand proportion from their Government again and at last.
