Month: September 2008

Far Lefty loon talk radio host Randi Rhoads jumps the shark……again…….

(Via and a very big H/T to Captain Ed over at HotAir.com)

Here we go again! It seems that the far-lefty loon talk show radio host Randi Rhodes has once again jumped the shark.

On September 8, 2008, Rhodes claimed that Presidential Candidate John McCain received preferential treatment in Vietnam, when he was taken captive.

Now it seems, that she has her eyes on Sarah Palin, something that does not surprise this writer at all, seeing that she divorced her husband. and is suspected of being a closet lesbian.

Now, Rhodes is accusing Sarah Palin of sleeping with teenage boys.

The Video:

The Transcript:

RHODES (HOUR TWO — 47:59): She’s the woman who shows up at the kid’s birthday party and starts opining about everything from politics to lawn care. This is the woman that knows it all. Will shout you down, will get revenge on you. That’s who she is.

She’s friends with all the teenage boys. You have to say no when your kids say, ‘can we sleep over at the Palin’s? No! NO!’

This is the same Randi Rhodes, who is known for her unhinged skits, public spills, obscene rants and wild accusations.

This is the same sweat hog, who was FIRED from Air America for calling Hillary Clinton and Geraldine Ferraro both “Big f******ing whores”. She claims that she quit, after she was suspended, but anyone with the half a brain knows that’s a big fat lie. Not that it matters, but I happen to know personally, that there are those in the Liberal/Progressive community that do not like this woman, at all. I would show you the comments left about her over at Crooks & Liars after her firing from Air America, but they have since been closed. However, I can show you comments from DailyKos, by those who do not like her at all.

It was been said, over at DailyKos and on other progressive and far lefty liberal Blogs that Randi Rhodes is viewed as the far left’s answer to Michelle Malkin and Rush Limbaugh. Although, I would be willing to bet that fans of theirs would take issue with that assessment.

As I have said many, many, many, times over on this Blog. Do you see now why I left that side of the political fence? Ronald Reagan had it absolutely right when he gave that speech in 1964. Man did he ever.

My obligatory cold-hearted Conservative Hurricane Ike posting.

I’m up early this morning. I believe there’s hope for the body clock yet.

I happen to be reading the early morning news stories, via Memeorandum, and I happen to see something, besides the wall to wall coverage of Sarah Palin.

It is a story in the Austin-American Statesmen, about the Galveston Jail prisoners not being evacuated.

The Story says:

An estimated 1,000 prisoners remained locked in the Galveston County Jail this afternoon, as the Hurricane Ike began battering the island city with flooding.

County officials earlier had ordered a mandatory evacuation for all residents. Sheriff’s officials insisted the prisoners and jailers were safe and sound, in a 2-year-old building designed to withstand hurricanes.

A sheriff’s office spokesman said the plan was for the prisoners and jailers to weather the storm in place — unless an evacuation took place later today. Sheriff’s office spokesman Maj. Ray Tuttoilmondo told the Houston Chronicle that the reason for not evacuating the prisoners is a security issue and cannot be discussed,

Even so, he said, “the prisoners and their safety and well-being are paramount and it will be handled.”

In Austin, several legislative offices early this afternoon lodged angry complaints with Galveston County and state officials that the jail had not been evacuated — and perhaps would not be.

Forecasters earlier warned that Ike’s storm surge of as much as 20 feet is possible — a level that would put water 3 feet over the top of Galveston’s seawall.

Galveston and state emergency management officials early this afternoon said they were checking on the situation at the jail.

Notice the parts that I highlighted up there? Well, I happened to look over at a rather Liberal Blog and I noticed this…:

Galveston Sheriff Leaves 1,000 Inmates AND Deputies To Die To Ike

Truly amazing. As I understand it Galveston is demographically a lot like New Orleans was when it was first hit. Lots of poor black people. I’m sure most of the inmates are black, but since the Sheriff has left his deputies there as well, I expect it’s stupidity and a general callousness towards human life, not racism.

….or maybe it’s the fact that them mean ol’ Texans just want to save a little money and let them little ol’ nigger prisoners die to save a little tax money on the city?

Please.

I am really beginning to believe that some of these liberals do suffer from some sort of mental disorder. Perhaps Michael Savage was correct.

Besides, what’s a few knocked off prisoners? I mean, it could only help relieve the tax burden on the state, having to house, feed and clothe them. Some of whom will never change their criminal ways. Michigan should bring back the death penalty, it would only help lower the prison population, and reduce crime.

Yeah, I can see the comments now, “You heartless S.O.B.!” Well, save it. I would never want to see anyone killed. I am very sure those sheriffs down there know what their doing.  Before anyone screams, “What about Katrina?” I say, “What about it?” Those people were fully warned of the impending disaster, they failed to heed the warnings. Because of this, people died, and because of their stupidity, they suffered loss, and then expected the Government to be their nanny. Which is so typical of Liberals. I’m sorry, but I just do not believe in a nanny state. You do something stupid and you suffer loss, don’t expect me or anyone else, including the Government, to be your babysitter.

So, there, there’s your daily dose of cold-hearted Conservatism.

Update: Glenn Reynolds has an excellent round up of links related to the storm.

Now THIS is crossing the god-damned line!

Now, they’ve pissed ME off!

Some asshole, by the name of Cintra Wilson, wrote a absolutely asinine article on Salon.com.

Some of the quotes from this article:

I confess, it was pretty riveting when John McCain trotted out Sarah Palin for the first time. Like many people, I thought, “Damn, a hyperconservative, fuckable, Type A, antiabortion, Christian Stepford wife in a ‘sexy librarian’ costume — as a vice president? That’s a brilliant stroke of horrifyingly cynical pandering to the Christian right. Karl Rove must be behind it.”

[snip]

I don’t want Sarah Palin being the representative leader and custodian of my rights, my Constitution and my country any more than I want polygamist compound leader Warren Jeffs baby-sitting for my preteen goddaughters.

[snip]

As a woman who does not believe what Palin believes, the thought of such an opportunistic anti-female in the White House — in the Cheney chair, no less — is akin to ideological brain rape.

[Snip]

It is a kind of eerie coincidence that Sarah Palin is being sprung on the public at the same time as the bimbo/frat-boy titty comedy “House Bunny,” which features a poster of a beautiful young lady with Playmate-style bunny ears, big, stupid eyes and her mouth hanging open like someone just punched her.

Sarah Palin is the White House bunny — the most nauseating novelty confection of the evangelical mind-set since Southern “chastity balls,” wherein teen girls pledge abstinence from premarital sex by ceremonially faux-marrying their own fathers.

I have zero clue who the fuck this asshole bitch is. But this little bullshit article, is way over the line. I mean, if a Conservative had wrote something like this about Hillary Clinton, the outrage would have been deafening. However, because it is about Sarah Palin, it is perfectly acceptable.

I am not a big fan of John McCain, or Sarah Palin for that matter, but this sort of ignorant bullshit is just fucking wrong. I can see criticizing her for her policies, but this goes way beyond that. This is slandering a woman, simply because you disagree with her political ideology.

But then again, we are talking about the communist far left, who hate America, it’s military, and the values and morals that it stands for.

I say it again, do you NOW see WHY I left that sort of nonsense?

Oh, by the way, I wonder if the Obamassiah would approve of this? or would he say “Enough!”

May this bitch rot in the devil’s hell.

Egad, Ralph Nader has just crossed into “PLEASE SEND ME MONEY!” Territory….

I saw this and I about pissed my pants laughing!

This was in my inbox:

Check it out:

I was sitting at my dinner table last night eating a two two two cookie.

It’s my mother’s recipe.

Simple.

Healthful.

Nutritious.

It’s called a two two two cookie because it has two cups of oats, two cups of flour, two cups of . . you get the idea.

As I’m biting into my two two two cookie, I’m asking myself:

What was the number one issue in the Presidential horse race for the past couple of days?

Answer:

Lipstick.

And then I asked myself: Why are Presidential campaigns so cosmetic?

Why can’t they be more substantive — like my mother’s cookies?

This got me to thinking about an idea that would help us raise money to push our substantive agenda onto the front burner of American politics.

If you donate to Nader/Gonazlez by midnight tonight an amount that has the number two in it, we’ll e-mail to you Rose Nader’s two two two recipe.

That simple.

So, you can give $2.

Or $12.

Or $20.

Or $22.

Or $200.

Anything up the to the maximum of $2,300.

But it has to have at least one two in it.

If it has a two in it, we’ll e-mail you the recipe.

(Of course, your two two two donation will help us reach our current fundraising goal of $80,000 by the September 17 deadline. Your donation will help us fund our get out the vote drive over the last seven weeks of this campaign — which translates into putting the substantive Nader/Gonzalez shift the power agenda front and center in this crucial election year.)

Thank you for your ongoing support and dedication.

Onward to November.

Ralph Nader

PS: Remember, if you give $100 or more, we will also send you In Pursuit of Justice, the 520-page book of essays by yours truly — essays on corporate power, the Constitution, and transforming our country. If you donate $100 or more now, we will send you this historic collection — and I’ll autograph it. (This book offer ends at 11:59 p.m. September 17, 2008.)

Egad, what’s next? Hawking your unused clean undies or something? I mean, when you’ve gotten to the point of hawking your Mom’s cookie recipe, you know a President Candidate is desperate.

No wonder that feckless jackass has never been elected.

Flashback: Nader’s position on Isreal.

Why I'm not Blogging more about Sarlin Palin's interview

Okay, here’s the deal. The reason why I am not Blogging more about Sarah Palin’s interview is because, quite frankly, the whole thing is quite idiotic if you ask me.

So, other than the quite humorous zinger delivered by Sullivan, I’ve avoided the topic.

Plus, I’ve already blogged about some of her past on here already. So, I start feeling like a broken record after a while.

Not to toot my own horn out anything, but, (Beep! Beep!) the minute I started reading the stories about Palin coming out of Alaska. I knew Juan McSame had made a very stupid decision.

So, if it seems like I am trying to avoid the topic, it’s because I am!

Andrew Sullivan on Sarah Palin

Andrew Sullivan on Sarah Palin’s interview with Charlie Gibson.

Quote:

This is your lipsticked pitbull, buddy. Own it. And all the immense incuriosity, minimal education, and fact-resistant ambition that comes with it.

ZZZZZZZZZZiiiiiiiiiiiiiing!

Heh. One of Sullivan’s best lines yet. 😆

He might be gay, but he is pretty damn funny. (D’oh!)

Another Reason I will not be voting for John McCain

By the way, I’m voting for Bob Barr. You should too. 😀

An excellent interview of a 9/11 survivor

I saw this and I just had to share it with you all.

There is an very excellent interview of a 9/11 Survivor over at Tygrrr Express.

I very, very, very, very (That’s 3 very’s!) highly recommend that you read that interview.

It is one thing to sit here, 602.35 miles away from New York and Blog about how damned horrible the September 11 attacks really are. But until you meet someone who got out or you read an interview, like this one. You can never really appreciate the sadness, the horror and the full scope of that tragedy. 

Go read this one it’s well worth it.

Neo-Conservative Michelle Malkin pulls another bone-headed move

Once again, I am forced to criticize Neo-Conservative Michelle Malkin’s writings.

Taking her marching orders from Neil and John Podhoretz, Michelle Malkin goes on a rather idiotic rant.

….On the way Barack Obama lays his flowers at the 9/11 memorial in New York. 

Quoting Malkin:

It’s a small gesture, but gestures matter at the hallowed grave site of so many murdered innocent Americans.

Barack Obama flings a memorial rose at Ground Zero like he’s a kid
tossing pennies into a fountain at the shopping mall — or a spectator
tossing flowers at a bullfight.

He doesn’t know what he’s doing.

(Clueless NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg copies him.)

By contrast, John McCain and his wife kneel and gently, somberly, place their roses down at the foot of the 9/11 tribute.

For the record, it was not flung, as Mrs. Malkin put it, he tossed it. So what?

What the hell exactly did she want, for Barack Obama to drop to his knees and wail? Please. If he would have that, Malkin would have criticized him for being a world class phony. For the record, so would have I. But that’s another story! 😉 😀

Further more, by posting this sort of drivel on her Blog, she further promotes that whole mentality, that Barack Obama is a undercover terrorist. Which she has in the past inferred, and has continued to infer on her blog AND in her columns.

I respect her writings and her views, I agree with her views on the military, very much so. In fact, it was Malkin’s coverage of the defacing of the Vietnam Memorial in Washington D.C. that was one of the many deciding factors for me to no longer vote Democrat, and for me to basically decide that I was not as much as a “Democrat” as I had assumed that I was. This, going against my own family. But, this little bit of nonsense right here goes beyond the pail, and this on a National Day of remembering the dead.

Now, I know Michelle, she will not approve my trackback, because, like most Neo-Conservatives, she’s a fascist. She does not want her many legions of readers to see that someone, like me, who is a Conservative, albeit, an Libertarian leaning, Paleo-Conservative; disagreeing with her and publicly chastising her for her moment of blatant stupidity. Comes with the territory.

Sorry, “Sweetie”, but you blew it on this one. I am very highly disappointed in you, young lady. I still like ya, but you really, really, should not have published that, at all.
