A blatant communist Presidential Communications Advisor(ess) finally resigns, after sound clips of her saying one of her BFFs is Chairman Mao. She said she liked the way the Communists in China controlled the press.
And
The Obama Justice Department wants to know who saw what, and when they saw it. That is, they want to know who was reading indymedia last Friday. They want to gain this knowledge by intentionally NOT following the law, circumventing legal procedures that would make it permissible to obtain the information. Also, they wanted indymedia to not tell anyone the logs were requested. A big tip of the hat to indymedia for pushing back just a teeny weeny little bit. The request was quietly withdrawn.
Note to the Obama administration: this is the USA in 2009, and we have the Internet. You can't do this shit and keep it on the down-low. And we hate what it says about you all that you are trying.

Why Not Give Each Nation Their Turn On The Human Rights Council Chair?
Oh, no reason really. All nations are about the same. I mean, no nation sitting in the chair of the human rights council of the United Nations would ever do anything like, oh, I don't know, block investigations of its own malfeasance.
. . . Oh, wait.
This is one of the reasons not to belong to the UN.
This is also one of the reasons the USA, as one of (if not the) most morally-upright nations in the world, should interject itself boldly into leadership positions.
Because the other guys have their hand in the cookie jar.
Try telling that to Professor Obama. . .

Well I'M Not Sorry!
President Obama said, at the memorial today for the Ft. Hood 13:
"We come together, filled with sorrow . . . ."
Speak for yourself, jerk.
I'm not sorry, I'm actually pretty pissed-off, and it doesn't help things that you are refusing to jump to conclusions about a dude who was closely linked to Al-Quaeda, spoke openly about muslim soldiers killing fellow soldiers, and was generally recognized to be a security risk but ignored due to 'political correctness' in the Army AND the FBI.
Sorry? No. We lose men in wars. How about prosecuting the war we're fighting, instead of trying to play footsie with the enemy? No? Okay, see you at the ballot box, pal.

No Hurricanes, No Warming, No Worries!
The radio news this morning said it would be the first hurricane to make landfall this year, and that it is late in the 2009 hurricane season. It's been downgraded. Now it's a tropical storm and Ida is making things generally moist for the coast-dwellers.
Those who have been paying close attention will recall that the GLOBAL WARNING EVERYBODY PANIC!!! crowd was saying that Global Warming (man-caused, no less) would be causing increasing numbers of hurricanes, and they would be increasingly bad, in the short-term (read: this year and last year) future.*
Weeeeeeell, last year was the coolest in recent history, and we're looking at 11 years of cooling now. That would be, in the face of rising CO2 levels in the atmosphere, which was supposed to make it hotter (according to climate modeling software designed to make it look like the world would heat up no matter what). Also, how's that whole "whole lotta hurricanes" prediction working out for you?
Still believe in the glowbull wormening?
Why?
********
*Al Gore, et. al., were capitalizing on the Katrina/Rita fears which were fresh in our national memory. Because he makes MONEY off your fears of global warming.

It's Not Like We Ever Had To Fight A War There . . .
Korean ships fire on Korean ships. Korean ships fire back.
North vs. South. Again.
Except this time, it's after the North broke the 1953 armistice.
What's the worst that could happen?

D.C. Area Should Be Cheering Right Now, Not Cowering.
Yahoo! News reports that people are getting antsy again, thinking about what happened when one guy decided to have his own little jihad in the D.C. metro area.
They should be celebrating the fact that he is being killed by the State tomorrow.
Then this jerk will find out just how fake his fake religion is, too late. You might pray for him, but once that third injection goes in, I seriously doubt anything but torments will be coming his way.

Threepers, note well: this guy taught you a series of lessons, if you are bright enough to learn them.

On This Day In History . . .
" . . . tear down this wall . . . "
And they did. It was a series of comic blunders (by people as competent and well-communicating as the current Obama white house) that got people started crossing over, but eventually the wall came down.
Note: I give good odds that Chairman Zero disdains to commemorate the occasion because he wishes it hadn't happened, and doesn't care too much for that whole "liberty" thing.

"Healthcare Bill Huge Blow to Reproductive Rights"
So saith the Huffpo. That wasn't the actual headline, but it was the teaser to get you to click on this link.
The Stupak amendment. It prevents the "healthcare" bill just passed (barely passed) by the Congress of the United States from paying for abortions, except when medically necessary to save the life of the mother (wink). This somehow is supposed to be an infringement on the "reproductive rights" of women. If you are stupid or intellectually lazy, or went to government schools (but I repeat myself) then you might agree that it IS an infringement on womens' rights.
Rights are something enforceable against someone else; enforceable by the government, against someone else on the behalf of a person with a right. For example, I have a RIGHT to have you not steal my car, and the Police will enforce that right for me, if you want to violate it.
For you to have a RIGHT to an abortion paid for by the government means that all of the following are true:
You have the right to the procedure.
You have the right to have the government pay for the procedure.
The government has no money, so they must take it from the citizenry.
The government has the legal ability to put people in JAIL for not paying taxes.
The government has in the past KILLED people for failure to comply with tax laws.
You therefore have the RIGHT to have an agent of the government go KILL SOMEBODY for not paying for the procedure.
Furthermore:
You have the right to the procedure.
Someone must provide the procedure, if you are to have it.
If that someone does not want to provide the procedure, the government may compel them to do it for you.
The abortion 'doctor' has NO right to decline you the procedure.
The 'doctor' must agree to take whatever the government is willing to pay for the procedure.
The abortion doctor must comply and give you the procedure, or be fined, imprisoned, or KILLED by the government.
For not providing you with the procedure which it is your RIGHT to have.
therefore, because all of the foregoing is NOT true, you have NO RIGHT to abortion paid for by the government. Reproductive Rights is a code phrase for forcing ME the taxpayer, to fund YOUR abortion.
This is the exact same argument applied to socialized "nationalized" health care, single-payer health care, etc. You have no RIGHT to health care. You do have the right to have a legitimate medical procedure performed, provided you are willing to pay an agreeable amount of money to a doctor who willingly does it for that amount. You do not have the right to put a government-run machine gun to Mr. Rich Man's head and force him to pay your medical bills.
. . . leaving aside entirely, the argument that health care is - if it is a government concern at all - a city, county, or at most a State concern, and the Federal government has no legitimate part to play in an individual citizen's health care, except to try to prevent a national enemy from blowing you up.
. . . also leaving aside the fact that you are wanting to force your fellow citizens to pay a doctor to murder your child for you.

Bipartisan = All of Us + 1 of Them.
Lovely. Just lovely. Now we get to hear about the BIPARTISAN SUPPORT for the "healthcare" bill, since CAO broke ranks and voted with the National Socialist Democrat party.
ONE Republican makes it "bipartisan." Not that Cao was in on the negotiations, but with a last-minute vote from ONE Republican, you get SHAZAM now it's BIpartisan.
Take careful note: Thehealth care system destruction and patient murder act of 2009 "healthcare" bill barely passed. Barely, as in, THREE votes the other way would have killed the bill. THREE votes.
So now it falls on the (thankfully) less-reactionary Senate to kill this measure. That means it is once again time to melt the phone lines at the Capitol Switchboard and make sure all the fence-shitting Democrat Senators know you will be donating to their opponent next November, regardless of who that opponent is. If YOUR Senator is a wobbly, be sure to tell them you will be working in their district specifically to defeat them, for voting for "healthcare."
NOTHING else will stop this bill. Nothing. They don't give a damn about all the patients who will die waiting for apetty tyrant bureaucrat to sign off on their medical care. They don't care that you don't want the USA to force you (at gunpoint) to buy shitty health care insurance from them. ALL THEY CARE ABOUT IS THEIR POWER. MAKE SURE YOUR ELECTED HEROES KNOW THEY WILL LOSE THEIR POSITION IN THE SENATE IF THE SENATE PASSES THIS BILL!
********
Congratulations to Stupak for writing abortion funding out of the 'healthcare' bill. You have enabled the abortofascists (as Neal Boortz calls us) in Congress to vote for the bill. In so doing, if it passes in the Senate, you have destroyed the finest health care system in the world, on fraudulent grounds, for the sake of political power, by encouraging votes for an unconstitutional measure. I hope you're happy. I know Queen Pelosi is ecstatic. Congressman Stupak, your political future is secure, as long as the Democrats can continue to have dead people and illegal aliens cast votes, or until the revolution comes. You ass.

Canada = USA ca. 2007?
Our largest trading partner, partner in crime, and BFF since WWII, Canada, is in deep shit. And they don't care.
Just like we were, and didn't, in 2007-2008. Then OUR real estate bubble started to burst and look what happened.
Canada is just waiting for the final straw, and the people who buy more of our junk than anyone else in the world (contributing more to our economy) will be pulling their spare dollars out of circulation, just like we have done.
VFD, What will it do to OUR industry, when THEIR consumer stops spending on our stuff?
Hint: the same thing that happened when YOU stopped spending on our stuff. This is going to be messy, people. Don't say nobody told you it was coming.
That link, by the way, goes to Michael Shedlock's Global Economic Analysis blog. "Mish" called the current state of affairs in the USA in 2007, when everyone else was still wearing rose-colored glasses, and those of us who read his writing are shaking our heads when we keep hearing "unexpectedly" associated with the stuff we saw coming, when it finally makes the headlines.
