No Veto-Proof Congress

The Georgia senate election results have become final and happily, the left-wing Daily Kos crowd will not be having a Merry Christmas this year because they were deprived of one of their most longed-for wishes: a 60 seat Democrat senate. Of course the really despicable Democrat comedian from Minnesota is still trying to "steal" that state but it won't matter in the final analysis. They won't have the super majority they craved. (It always boggles the mind to see how the left-wing gang doesn't ever wonder how it is that every recount in a close election goes their way eventually. How does that happen? Logic would dictate that a truly honest, random recount would spread the "found" votes more or less equally among both candidates, but not if one of the candidates is a Democrat. This has been shown over and over, in state after state. If the race is close, the Democrats will steal it. It's almost a matter of pride with them.)

After securing the presidential election win, Barack, much to his credit, has disappointed his wild-eyed cohorts by naming several actual moderates to his cabinet. He has given us "Clinton Three" for the most part with a couple of "holdovers" to a least give the illusion of leading from the center. The Kos Kids are livid. No doubt the current economic conditions have tempered his real long-range intentions and even a committed socialist realizes that a crippling tax increase immediately after his election wouldn't sit well with the otherwise deluded American people. The tax increases will have to wait for a little while at least, but they, no doubt will be coming.

Conservatives are starting to come out of the hills to try and reorganize a comeback. It will be a long, hard slog but must be done. No doubt, when Obama's tax increases and wrong-headed policies start to show their negative effects, the American people will be ready again for a swing back to sanity. This time we must assure that "genuine" conservatives of the Reagan ilk are elected and not the country-club Republicans who fumbled away the last opportunity they were given. The nation's survival may well depend on it.

Truth and Consequences

For the past year many Americans have been ignoring many simple truths. Barack Obama is not what he appears to be and many self-deluded Americans, plagued with "white guilt" don't seem willing or able to admit to themselves that truth. Obama is an inexperienced political novice, without any qualifications, accomplishments, or relevant experience to be president of the United States. Obama has many troubling prior associations with radicals, terrorist supporters, communists and other assorted socialists that would prevent him from getting any kind of employment that required a security clearance or background check. And perhaps the most difficult of all truths for many people to admit to themselves: Obama is where he is for one reason, and one reason only -- because he is black. The truth hurts, but if anybody is willing to be honest at all with themselves, they have to admit that if Obama had the same background and experience he would not be the nominee of his party if he were white. I'm sorry if the truth is hard to hear.

Barack Obama is entirely a creation of a coalition of white, moneyed liberals, left-leaning mainstream media outlets who are in love with the concept of the "first black president" and who are deluded by power hungry Democrat politicians who share a pathological hatred for George W. Bush, and radical left-wing activists who really do want to destroy the America most of us know and cherish. Without the concerted efforts of this group, we would have never heard of Barack Obama since he himself has done nothing to merit any notoriety. This truth is undeniable.

If Obama wins the election on November 4Th, America may well survive, but will undoubtedly suffer severe damage from the appointment of assorted left-wing judges and the left-wing legislation he will support. The effect of this will be to further destroy the proven capitalist system that has provided us with unprecedented prosperity for over 200 years and replace it with socialist, grey bureaucracy dominated by the lunacy that people will work hard to provide tax revenue for leftists to redistribute to their favored clients. Nevertheless, America will probably survive, albeit at a great cost in lost prosperity and wasted time. However, if Obama wins and gets a veto-proof congress, America may well not survive the onslaught of left-wing political idiocy which would no doubt destroy most of the basic institutions we all hold sacred. "Spreading the wealth" will destroy us just as certain as that concept has destroyed every other socialist/communist experiment nations have previously tried.

The polls are tightening up. There is still hope that enough Americans will wake up in time to save us, if not from an Obama presidency, then at least from the dreaded veto-proof congress. Here's hoping we will not perish in that conflagration. We must remain steadfast in our resolve to not allow that to happen and to work tirelessly to overturn the Obama phenomenon as soon as possible after it bears the bitter fruit it inevitably will produce.

Maxi-Me

Barack Obama's Top Ten Reasons for Selecting Biden:

1. If the tele-prompter breaks, he can plaigerize some really good lines for me to use.

2. If we have any more trouble with Georgia, I can send him to Atlanta. (He's got the foreign policy thing down pat!)

3. He has great mental akumen acqumin .... He's really smart!

4. No problem with four hundred dollar haircuts! (Maybe wind, but not haircuts)

5. He has 35 years senate experience, I have three. That makes the average between us 19 years each!

6. He, like me, never really worked in the private sector. (We'll hire advisors to run the economy. Not to worry!)

7. He supported the Iraq war. I opposed it. (Good balance there!)

8. He has the experience gravitas .... um, nuance I lack to be really attractive to potential voters.

9. He has great teeth, just like me.

10. He can help me win in Delaware! (I have the other 56 states in the bag already!)

(Hat tip to my brother-in-law Doug!)

Islamic Extremist Rope-a-Dope?

Some few mainstream media sources have grudgingly reported the major decline in US military deaths in Iraq. While that seems to be good news for conservatives, there is still much room for caution and concern. The terrorists watch CNN and they are not stupid. It seems more than likely that they are laying low during the current US presidential campaign because they know that any major offensive in Iraq, or anywhere else for that matter, would greatly help John McCain's chances to become president. The extremists don't want John McCain to be the president. He is much less likely than Obama to cut and run in Iraq. They know that if they wait until Obama wins, they can then step up the violence in Iraq and Afghanistan. Obama, under extreme pressure from American leftists, would almost certainly withdraw from both countries and thus the terrorists will win the war. It is really their only chance. They know it and they are willing to stop the attacks for now, and wait for Obama to win.

That's one of the major reasons all conservatives need to support McCain in spite of his liberal tendencies. While he might not be our first choice, he is the only person at the moment who can prevent a potentially disastrous Islamic terrorist victory in the Middle East. Freedom loving conservatives must hold our noses and support him. He's our only hope.

I Just Want to Maintain A High Degree of Honor -- And Lose!

At some point in this year's presidential campaign, the somewhat timid John McCain is going to be faced with a serious dilemma: He won't be able to disagree with Barack Obama (Or Hilary Clinton should the unexpected happen) at all, ever. As soon as he says anything the least bit confrontational, the mainstream media will immediately pounce on him for being racist. (Or sexist if it's Hilary.) So far, they have been biting their tongue in this regard during the primaries because they can hardly oppose either Obama or Hilary on any such frivolous grounds, but they won't hesitate to attack John McCain. Even though he thinks of himself as a media darling, he won't get any favors once the electoral battle ensues in earnest.

Barack's lack of experience, totally socialist policies, or left wing foreign policy won't likely ever even be brought up. McCain won't dare for fear of being branded racist. He will inevitably try to be the nice guy and that's frightening. The last "nice guy" to run for president on the Republican ticket was Bob Dole -- and he lost big time to a feckless, inexperienced Bill Clinton.

Unless McCain is able to get past this natural reticence to disagree with his opponents, he is doomed to follow Bob Dole and that will presage a bleak eight year for the GOP. John McCain has always gone out of his way to reach "across this aisle" to the Democrats. He has thrown his Republican colleagues under the bus to side with Democrat senators, sided with Tim Russert and George Stephanopolis, allied himself with Ted Kennedy. If he thinks he will get any mileage from any of these, he is most sadly mistaken.

Here's hoping his advisors will make him see that he needs to start disagreeing loudly and often with Obama and Hilary, and he needs to couch each and every point in the fact that their race or sex has nothing at all to do with his disagreement. He needs to disarm the race baiters of this world up front, take away their case that he is somehow racist for daring to disagree with his opponent's left-wing agenda. The future of our country depends on it.
