If Obama’s judgement is so superior to that of his political opponents, then let him explain his judgement —on multiple occasions and over many years— in consorting with a domestic terrorist like Bill Ayers. Let him explain in detail his involvement with this anti-American bomb-maker who helped to make him the chairman of the board of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge. Let’s hear him talk about their work together on education. Obama can’t avoid the question of education, can he? Does he have any ideas from that time that he’d like to share with the rest of the class? He has some interest in charter schools, I hear —but only so long as they comport with his and Ayers’ Leftist agenda of socialist indoctrination. But what do the teachers’ unions think about charter schools? Avoiding them isn’t why Obama doesn’t reference his time on the CAC board with the anti-American asshole Ayers, though. It’s because he knows that talking about the CAC and the Woods Foundation gives the rest of us a reason to ask about Ayers.

Senator McCain, you can’t let another day go by without pounding on this unqualified liar. Tomorrow night, you need to ask Obama about his experience in education. Just ask him about that.

Looks like the Joe and Valerie Wilson Show hit another dead end today:

WASHINGTON, Aug 12 (Reuters) - A U.S. appeals court on Tuesday dismissed former CIA analyst Valerie Plame’s lawsuit against Vice President Dick Cheney and several former Bush administration officials for disclosing her identity to the public.

The Court of Appeals in Washington dealt another setback to the former spy, who has said her career was destroyed when officials blew her cover in 2003 to retaliate against her husband, Iraq war critic Joseph Wilson.

But it was Joe and Valerie who destroyed her CIA career by exploiting the opportunity she got him through her employment to try to publicly undermine the President’s case for war against a legitimate enemy. They doubled down on their stupidity with their disloyal liberal crap —and it’s gotten them nothing but the good opinion of people whose judgement isn’t worth the third bar piss of the night. People like the lunatic Larry Johnson and the anti-car tosser Duncan Black.

Guess it’s off to Hef’s mansion now, eh? 

Isn’t it odd how banality can become sinister? Even Barack Hussein Obama’s mottos are verbal adumbrations of the hollowness of his creed.

It isn’t enough for me now to hear apologies from the idiots who perpetrated the nonsense of this man’s nomination; I want more. I want these people to admit that their judgement in choosing our leaders is contemptuous of this great civilization —which prospers despite them.

Here’s to death knells. Here’s to the triumph of common sense —and to the patriotism that doesn’t have to be asserted, but only lived.

It isn’t enough to be offended at the obscenity of Barack Hussein Obama’s nomination by the Democratic Party; one must recognize what a danger this man has become and act against it. This utterly vapid speech he gave in Berlin today is a declaration of ego the likes of which I have never seen in an American politician. The only thing that comes close is the narcissism of Huey P. Long. Then again, the Kingfish got things done, whereas this unqualified liar has merely used the system to advance himself personally without actual regard for the welfare of those whom he claims to represent.

We are witnesses to the increasingly deranged fantasy of a cultural interloper and a post-American demagogue. He has abused all decorum and has made a mockery of both JFK and Reagan —and for what? The benefit of footage for his campaign ads? He actually thinks that his Big Media carnival show of a whole week’s duration is a substitute for the hard work of dedication, experience, and real judgement in foreign policy? What an obscenity!

And standing there before a crowd of 200,000 Germans was this miserable crypto-Muslim fraud, condemning his own country before the descendants of mass murderers:

I know my country has not perfected itself. At times, we’ve struggled to keep the promise of liberty and equality for all of our people. We’ve made our share of mistakes, and there are times when our actions around the world have not lived up to our best intentions.

There is no excuse to not vote against this idiot come November. Just the who the hell does he think he is?

Just caught the last few minutes of Madame Couric fluffing Obama Soter —and it turns out that the reason he’s going to hold a campaign rally in front of Hitler’s favorite monument to Prussian militarism is to get the krauts “to feel good” about America again. And to say we’re sorry to our “old enemies.” So very, very sorry.

Obama is an abomination. Inshallah, this wankfest he’s been on this past week will be the beginning of the end of his hopes. Surely Americans won’t reward this degree of narcissism.

Barry, when the only thing that would validate your position on the War for Iraq, insofar as you could be said to have one, is the sudden escalation of violence there, particularly aginst our troops, it would be best for you to come to terms with reality and tell the hippies in your party to shut up and sit down. The war is won —if we choose to leave there on terms that serve our wider strategic interests in the region. If we withdraw in such a way that reawakens the hostile elements in Iraq just because you want to keep to some arbitrary date (a “date certain,” indeed), then you will have squandered what has been won at great cost for mere political purposes. Nobody oughta give a damn what your anti-military/anti-war party says about what Iraq really is and what we’re accomplishing there because all Iraq has ever been to you is a fundraising cause. Lots of Democrats supported the war in the beginning because Iraq had been festering for years. Even Bill Clinton knew Iraq was a danger —and officially endorsed regime change in Iraq as the policy of this country. But you’re to the left of them all. You’re supposedly better than them all because of your “superior” judgement —but that’s garbage and you know it. Right now, because of your lack of judgement and your lack of integrity, you are allowing yourself to be bullied by the anti-war Left for fear of offending them when you know that we have succeeded in Iraq. Your judgement is apparently inferior to those you have long insulted as incompetent. What are you going to be saying to the troops? Are you going to look them in the eye and tell them that they haven’t accomplished anything and that their sacrifices have been for naught? Do you have any optimism to share with a country thats democratic and free market future owes itself to our efforts there? I doubt it. But you’ll be sure to dispense platitudes like the soft soap of your ideology. The Eurofreaks will eat it up and the nauseating propagandists travelling with you will coo and moan at your every utterance, but maybe there’s just enough of us still here in America who won’t buy your lies and are ready to call you on them every time.

So, let’s have it, tough guy. Let’s see you shock and awe the Democratic Party with the news they haven’t bothered to hear —which is that we have succeeded in Iraq and have made a better world possible because of it. But let them down easy, Barry. You’re finally going to have to say something that matters. Don’t flub your lines.

I’m having a look at this morning’s proceedings of Duncan Black’s groupie gathering in Philadelphia —and they have Ted Rall sitting in on one of their panels. Good God! Is there any question now that these people hate their country?

Disgusting losers. Especially that creative writing teacher they flew in to sit beside Rall. What a load of ugly.

I’ve just read that MSNBC is in talks with the disgusting idiot Rosie O’Donnell to give her a nightly soapbox on their anti-American network.

Although I rarely even watch more than one or two minutes of their crap (on my way to someone else’s crap), it offends me that a putative cable news network would pay this disgusting idiot a dime to spew her ignorance —however small the audience. It also offends me that I am obligated to pay for that shit in the sanctity of my own home.

Therefore, if the frivolous tools at MSNBC persist with this nonsense and actually put that disgusting idiot on the air again, I will immediately cancel my cable and internet services.

That’s a promise —and as good a reason as any to get free of the disease while there’s still time.

Until this afternoon, my only acquaintance with Glenn Greenwald was from maybe a year or so ago when he was exposed as a fraud who sockpuppeted positive responses to his own posts and reactions to his own posts around the blogosphere. But with his Salon blog post from last Wednesday, Greenwald makes a tour de force of absolute liberal/Leftist cluelessness. I recommend that it be read and studied. Of the disgusting MoveOn.org ad against General Petraeus that was had on the cheap from the fucking com-symps at the New York Times, Greenwald writes:

For those who think — for some indiscernible reason — that it is important enough to spend the energy developing an opinion on the MoveOn ad, there are, I suppose, reasonable arguments that can be made on both sides as to whether the “betray us” rhyme was rhetorically excessive, counter-productive, etc. But the shrill hand-wringing it has triggered is just bizarre in light of the fact that accusing Americans, including military veterans, of being unpatriotic, anti-American and betraying the country has, for decades, been a mainstream staple of the political rhetoric from our country’s pro-war Right — invoked most aggressively by those, such as [Joe] Klein, now claiming such profound offense over the MoveOn ad.

Greenwald sounds like Principal Skinner telling the kids to stop asking questions about the bizarre cover-up of Groundskeeper Willie’s death. The MoveOn.org ad was purchased with an eye towards attention and controversy, so why should Greenwald dismiss the consequences? Is speaking truth to power too scary a proposition to long remain associated with it? Must it be clumsily covered over by such sacks of apologist shit as Greenwald for fear it might be called what it is?

Indeed, just a few months ago, Gen. Petraeus himself toyed with exactly such rhetoric at the prompting of the incomparably odious Joe Lieberman, whose entire political career is now devoted (ironically) to impugning the patriotism of any Americans who oppose Lieberman’s desire to wage one war after the next against Israel’s enemies. As The Washington Post’s Thomas Ricks reported regarding a Senate hearing in May:

Sen. Joseph I. Lieberman (I-Conn.) asked Army Lt. Gen. David H . Petraeus during his confirmation hearing yesterday if Senate resolutions condemning White House Iraq policy “would give the enemy some comfort.”

Petraeus agreed they would, saying, “That’s correct, sir.”

Here, Greenwald knowingly uses Ricks’ inaccurate quote from Lieberman because it better suits his narrative that pro-American politicians sometimes suggest that Democrats and the ant-war crowd do give “comfort to the enemy.” He then immediately sets about to acknowledge that Lieberman didn’t use the word “comfort,” but does so by saying (emphasis mine):

Though subsequent reports suggested that Lieberman used the phrase “give the enemy some encouragement” (rather than the treasonous term of art “comfort”), the point was the same: those who condemned the President’s war policy were, pursuant to Petraeus’ toxic accusations, helping America’s Terrorist Enemies.

“The point was the same”? What are you talking about, liar? Is that this season’s ”fake but accurate”? You got Ricks wrong getting Lieberman wrong. It’s as simple as that.

Read Greenwald’s whole post, as well as the updates. He does not understand the qualitative difference between the rhetoric of the American Right and the anti-American Left because he does not recognize the degeneracy of his own position, which is incoherent in the face of our military and strategic obligations. You know he understands that the MoveOn.org ad was a huge blunder for the Democrats because he takes such pains to dismiss its importance. But these politicians cannot shake their associations with the moobat fringe. And hacks like Greenwald —just as apparently— cannot find a clue as to why they should be called traitors and sympathizers.

(Hat tip to Dan Collins of Protein Wisdom and his commenters.)

It just occurred to me why MoveOn.org’s disgusting attack on David Petraeus —in which he was called “General Betray Us”— makes no sense: people who support MoveOn.org are not real Americans and, so, are incapable of being betrayed.

Wasn’t Petraeus confirmed in his present role by unanimous consent of the United States Senate not even a year ago? How do losers like Dick Durbin and Harry Reid explain their votes to the filthy hippies?
