Breaking News: Attorney General Michael Mukasey Collapses during speech

This is not good…

Via Politico:

Attorney General Michael Mukasey collapsed Thursday night while giving a speech to the Federalist Society in Washington, according to three senior administration officials.

Witnesses said Mukasey, 67, was conscious as he was taken from the Marriott Wardman Park hotel to George Washington University Hospital. CBS News reported that the attorney general began slurring his words about 15 or 20 minutes into a speech touching on Bush administration successes in the war on terrorism. His federal detail attended to him until medical personnel arrived.

Details about Mukasey’s condition were not immediately available.

Audience members said they began praying, fearing a stroke.

Mukasey is a former federal prosecutor from New York City who succeeded former Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.

At 10:30 p.m. Eastern, medical officials were still working on him on the stage, administration witnesses said.

Video via Fox News:

I think the best we all can do at this point is to pray for this man.

Update: Kathryn Jean Lopez Reports:

I’m told he is doing better at George Washington University hospital. And I think he’d be happy to know you read his Wall Street Journal oped on enemy combatants today.

Update #2: CNN Reports that Attorney General Michael Mukasey got a clean bill of Health and did not have a stroke. But what I don’t get was why did he faint?

An Organization that I think all Americans should get behind

I normally do not like to promote organizations on this Blog, other than the one’s in the links section of this Blog.

But this one, is important; As much as I know that going into Iraq was a mistake, because of bad intelligence. I believe that those that are over there now, mopping up the mess that Bush created over in Iraq are very worthy of our Honor, Love, and Support. That also goes for those still fighting the very justified war in Afghanistan.

I ask that all my readers, of all political stripes, whomever you might be, to head on over to the website Below and give as much as you are able. It is because of these fine men and woman, who putting their asses on the line, that we’re to live free here in America.

The Far Right Cries About Retreads.

Man, I do not know just how much stupidity I can handle in one day… I mean really.

The bleary-eyed blond, Carol Platt Liebau over at Townhall.com yowls on her Blog:

This AP piece just points out what should be obvious to everyone by now — that Barack “Change you can believe in” Obama has been filling the top ranks of his administration with Clinton era and/or beltway insiders.

What should, of course, be obvious is that such a move is probably necessary for a relative novice like President-elect Obama.  If he chose to surround himself with people who are as lacking in national experience as he is, the results would resemble . . . well, the Carter administration.

Obama is a true ideological believer when it comes to the ends he wants to pursue, but he’s a hard core pragmatist about the means for achieving them.  If a certain frisson of excitement is lost among his liberal base when they learn that the West Wing will be filled with a bunch of retreads, no doubt he figures that’s a trade-off everyone will be willing to make, so long as the results are worth it.  And make no mistake — he’s committed to making sure the results are worth it, at least for those on the left.

Uhm, Carol ever read any history books? Did not Reagan use Gerald Ford and Nixon Administration retreads in his Administration? Admittedly, he did have a few select Reagan-ites in doing his bidding, but the good majority of them were, in fact, Nixon and Ford Retreads. This was because Reagan did not have much experience and wanted people around him, who knew the beltway and could get things done. Sort of like, well, Obama.

Seriously, do these idiot Neo-Cons ever crack a book, before they spout? 🙄

The Obligatory E-Harmony Blog Posting….

Yeah, A gay man sued E-Harmony and won, now they’re creating a service for gay people.

Yes, I think it’s Bull crap. Why wouldn’t I?

But I’ve got better things to do, than waste my bandwidth on something as stupid as this.

For the Record, a gay liberal thinks it’s crap too.

A Picture of our Economy

A Picture of our Economy
A Picture of our Economy

(H/T to ParaPundit)

New York Times has the story:

But the inventory glut in Long Beach is not limited to imported cars. There has also been a sharp drop in demand for the port’s single largest export: recycled cardboard and paper products.

This material typically goes to China, where it is used to make boxes for new electronics and other products that are sent back to the United States. But Chinese factories reacting to sharply falling demand are slowing production, so they need less cardboard. Tons of paper are piling up recycling businesses around the port, the detritus of economies on hold.

Long Beach is an important port, particularly for the West. It is where imported products arrive and filter through the tributary of trucks, trains and retailers into the hands of consumers. But now, products are just sitting.

“We’re supposed to move things, not store them,” Mr. Wong said.

Roughly 20 percent of the nation’s container imports last year came through Long Beach, putting it close behind the largest container port, Los Angeles. This year, shipping volume at Long Beach is down 10 percent from 2007, and nearly all major ports around the country have seen similar declines. Veteran port workers say the slowdown since mid-October is like nothing they have ever seen. And it is having a cascading impact on other businesses and workers. – Read the rest

Go read the rest of the story. But it’s not only cars, it’s everything. I think Obama might just come; too little, too late. 🙁

Liberal Buffoon Joy Behar Disses Home Schooled Children

(H/T and Thanks to Michelle Malkin)

This Liberal piece of trash just crossed into the “You don’t got there” area with me. It seems that the liberal message is being parroted loud and clear on “The View.”

Here’s the Video, the rant towards homeschooling starts at 6:10 and comes to a head at 7:10:

You see before this Liberal idiot was a so-called “comedian”, she was, you guessed it; A Public School Teacher.

This is why I am even mentioning this; Normally, I could give two flips what these idiot women talk about every week on the view. But there’s a bit of a personal reason as to why.

I, your host, was homeschoolled for about 2 years. Before I moved out of Detroit. I was attending a Private School, run by some Baptist Christians. The teacher that was there, when I first started attending there, retired. He was replaced by an idiot who couldn’t teach his way out of a paper bag. He just was not able to handle the kids. So, I opted for the homeschooling. I was on the ACE Program.

Now, admittedly, I ended up dropping out of School when I turned 18. This was no fault of the School or the program I was on at all. It was me. I had A.D.H.D.; I still have it. That program is not for everyone, it is not geared towards those who have learning disabilities. It is geared towards kids who have zero learning disabilities.  I just could not handle the math, it was very tough, I was good till the multiplication started and after that, I was toast.

The reason why this blows up my skirt so much, is because people watch this show, every freaking day and they hear the B.S. lie of homeschooled kids are demented and they believe it, because they hear this liberal buffoon saying this crap.

Let me just say this, as someone who attended Christian Schools all his life. There are many more demented kids in Public Schools, then they are in Private or among HomeSchooled kids.

Let me give a good example, Does anyone remember this picture?:

Remember this?:

Or Maybe this:

In case you don’t know what I am referring to, this video and pictures of the Columbine High School massacre which took place on Tuesday, April 20, 1999.

The two Demented shooters:

The Shooters: Eric Harris (left) and Dylan Klebold (right)

Public school kids, demented, in fact, it is recorded the about the two:

However, on the fifth anniversary of Columbine, the FBI’s lead Columbine investigator and several psychiatrists went public with their conclusions in a news article.[27] There they argued Harris was a clinical psychopath and Klebold was depressive. They believed the plan was masterminded by Harris, who they thought had a messianic-level superiority complex and hoped to illustrate his massive superiority to the world. – Source: Wikipedia

Um, Joy Behar, what was it you were saying about demented Homeschooled kids again?
