Quote Of The Day: How Obama Is Stalling Any Possible Economic Recovery

Via MItchieville:

"You cannot have job creation when you continue to raise taxes, when you continue to - every day our great leader goes on the microphone and has more regulations. What entrepreneur in his right mind would start a new business right now or even hire more people under these circumstances of rising taxes, rising regulations?"

[...] The first chance for a sustainable bottom will be in 2017. When you have such wealth destruction as we are seeing now, when you have such a contraction in international trade and credit and everything, you cannot have a big recovery.

Pretty much what I was thinking.  Great Depression 2, here we go!

Senator Judd Gregg Rips MSNBC Hostess On Air

This is how it's done Republicans! 

When the liberal media let's their mask slip you call their shot.  You don't play nice with the media.  If you do, you lose.  Don't believe me?  Ask John McCain.

Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution

This great idea arrived in my e-mail today:

"Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators and Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States."

Too bad it has zero chance of ever getting passed into law.

 

Obama Is The Taxman

Obama Calls For Bi-Partisan Defecit Panel To Give Democrats Political Cover

Okay... let's read that headline once more before we proceed so we can really savor the irony of the President who spent 3.5 trillion dollars in just his first year now wanting to find ways to reduce government spending?

Perhaps he should just go back to Chicago?  I have a feeling that would be a really good start.

From the New York Times:

President Obama plans to create a bipartisan commission to make recommendations to Congress on ways to reduce the federal budget deficit under an agreement reached Tuesday night at the White House.

Why the bi-partisan?  Wasn't it the Democrats who were voted in to bring change to Washington? 

Oh, I see, it's bipartisan just to give the Democrats some political cover in this year's election.  Hey, even the Times admits as much:

In the short run, such a commission would buy time for the White House and Congress, putting off decisions until after this year’s midterm elections while the commission deliberates.

As far as I'm concerned they spent all that money, so they need to live with the consequences.  Let them be hoisted by their own petard.

I also think any Republican lawmaker who joins this panel, thereby helping to insulate Dems from the mess they've created, is a traitor to his party and should be voted out of office. 

Michelle Malkin

For this week's babe post I decided to honor the reigning queen of right wing beauty, conservative cutie-pie and brainiac babe extraordinaire Michelle Malkin.

Always right, always adorable, Malkin is the one conservative pundit that I just can't seem to get enough of.

 

Malkin is the daughter of Phillipino immigrants who settled in New Jersey.  She began her writing career at Oberlin college in Ohio, where she was dubbed by left wing haters as "the Eva Braun of Oberlin".

Iowahawk Gives Us A Peek Behind The Scenes Of The Coakley Campaign

Legendary Iowahawk guest blogger/housekeeper Rosa Ortiz returns at last and gives us an insider's perspective on the Coakley campaign:

When I move to the Massachusetts Senora Coakley is first a very good lady. She no make me do the windows, only to bring the grocery and the morning tracking polls. She is very happy with the 30% lead and she is always the phone with Senor Reid and the real eastate brokers in Washington. But one morning I am bring her the tracking poll and she is now only up 15% and she is very angry. "Rosa! Why are you to bring me this! Throw this bad poll away and bring me the grapefruit."

Then, Dio mio, every day the poll is more bad, and she keep yelling louder. She stop asking for the grapefruit and ask for the Ben and Jerry ice cream. She say, "Rosa, why do the stupid voter people fall for the stupid Senor Brown and his stupid truck?" I say, I do no know Senora, maybe because he is the very handsome and against the health care taxes. This is make her very angry and to throw her Ben and Jerry across the kitchen.

When I am clean up the mess Senora Coakley say, "You are the Mexicana, yes Rosa? You must have the old pickup truck I can borrow for the campaign."

I say, "no Senora, I am from Guatemala. My cousin Estaban has the pickup, but it is need the new transmission."

And it keeps on getting funnier and funnier.  Click over and read the whole thing at Dave's site.  Iowahawk never dissappoints... not ever. 

The Obama Pelosi Recession Is The Worst Recession In US History...

Only the Great Depression was worse, but give them some more time, as they appear to be working hard at setting a new record low for every single economic indicator.

Democrats are the ones who screwed up this economy and now they are going to make it even worse.  Great Depression II anyone?

Let's vote for some REAL hope and change in 2010 please... before it's too late.

Japanese Whalers PWN Eco Douchebags And Their Little Batboat

This might be the funniest thing I've seen in a long time.  I had to watch it several time just to savor the rich taste of schadenfreude.

A conservation group's boat had its bow sheared off and was taking on water this morning after it collided with a Japanese whaling ship in the frigid waters of Antarctica, the group said.

The boat's six crew members have been rescued. Dramatic video of the incident appears to show the Japanese vessel deliberately rammed the tiny speedboat.

The clash was the most serious in years, during which the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society has sent vessels into far-southern waters to try to harass the Japanese fleet into ceasing its annual whale hunt.

I have nothing against whales, and personally would prefer they be left alone, but I hate left wing douchbags even more and would probably sacrifice all the whales just to rid the earth of naive human do-gooders once and for all.

ROTF LMAO

Fuck you Greenpeace.  I hope your stupid ass boat sinks next time!

Bolton On Obama's "Post American Presidency"

Former Secretary of State John Bolton has penned a great analysis of Obama's foreign policy trajectory and where it's liable to take us over the next three years.

Barack Obama’s blueprint for the United States spells trouble for American autonomy, self-governance, and defense, all key elements of national sovereignty.  His undisguised indifference to repeated diminutions of that sovereignty is entirely consistent with the views of his European admirers, who, at their level, would like to see their nation-states dissolve into the European Union.  In the end, however, the United States is exceptional and will not melt into any larger or global union; it will simply become less able to protect itself and its constitutional decision-making system. That is clearly where our first post-American president’s policies will take us.

Click through to Commentary Magazine for the whole thing.  It's a great, yet depressing, read.

Tabby

I have no idea who this chick is, but I like her style.

She's featured at the hilarious site 27bslash6.com.  The filename was "tabby01.jpg", so I must asume that's her name. 

I think she's just the kind of badass babe I need to shake things up around here.  Maybe we'll go back to the regular bikini bimbos next week... or maybe not.

It Is SO COLD...

I "creatively borrowed" it from Hookers And Booze and improved it a little bit.

P.S. I just noticed I've been using way too many elipses lately... I'll have to work on that.

Just A Thought...

...but, do you think perhaps the next Republican presidential candidate should run on a message of "hope" and "change" and basically cram all of Øbama's empty promises right back down his throat? 

This would highlight what a failure he's been, put the focus on how many promises he's broken, and make a joke out of the entire Democrat party all in one fell swoop.  

Just a thought...

America Rising

Here's a sweet little video I found over at Where Are My Keys.

This is really well done, and deserves to be spread around.  Send a link via e-mail or post it on your own site.  The Democrats need to lose big this fall or we may never get our country back.

It's 10° Outside My House...

...but it sure looks warm wherever this photo was taken.

In fact, I'd say it looks smokin' hot.  What do you think?

Vince Guaraldi "Cast Your Fate To The Wind"

Here's an appropriate track for my first music post of 2010.

Starts out slow and a little melancholy, but then it gets a little bit of a happy swagger.  Let's hope 2010 is the same way, a little thoughtful at first and more optimistic around the beginning of November.
