I knew this was coming….

This is what happens when you do not vet your ranks.

I knew the left would try and tie that crap to Romney, I knew it! 😡

Bill Murphy, Mitt Romney’s Social Media Director, and his colleague Ali Akbar have ripped off a lot of people. They ripped off the Tea Party with the American Liberty Alliance. They ripped off movement Conservatives with the National Bloggers Club. They even ripped off Andrew Breitbart. But their days of making it rain misbegotten right-wing dollars may be numbered.

In 2009 Murphy and Akbar worked together at American Liberty Alliance, an organization which collected “donations” throughout the summer while claiming they were just waiting for their 501(c)3 application to go through. It never did. Then they worked together at National Bloggers Club, a group which solicited “donations” for the past six months while actually calling itself a non-profit (status pending). But according to the IRS, they never bothered to file the necessary documents.

If we lose this damned election, I know who to blame! Damned idiots. I figured one of them had ties to Romney. 😡 I am still supporting Romney, But I hope like hell Romney gets rid of these clowns and quickly.

Video: Alex Jones on Ron Paul’s campaign manager

I happened to have found this on Facebook.

I know what I said earlier about Ron Paul.

Alex Jones’s delivery and acting aside; the information is interesting.

Watch it:

I had heard about this before, but didn’t realize the extent of it.

Interesting indeed.

For the Record: Ron Paul will never be satisfied

This is why Ron Paul is not the GOP’s candidate for President of the United States:

Rep. Ron Paul said GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney’s convention speech left him “very skeptical” that the country’s economic policies will change.

“The speech is what I would expect,” the Texas Republican said Friday on Bloomberg Television’s “In the Loop.” “I remain very, very skeptical of hearing anything that will change the course of history. We have a debt problem. We have a spending problem, but how many things did he list to cut?”

Not enough, he said. The former GOP presidential candidate said the “most disturbing” part of America’s fiscal problems is the Federal Reserve, which Romney did not focus on during his speech.

“There was no talk of the Federal Reserve,” said Paul, advocating the elimination of both the Fed and fixed interest rates. “As long as we have the concept,” he later added, “we will linger a long time because debt is a problem and no one is willing to face up to it and I certainly didn’t hear that last night.

via Mitt Romney speech leaves Ron Paul ‘skeptical’ – Kevin Cirilli – POLITICO.com.

Ron Paul; for all the good things about him, this is one of his many flaws — besides his unrealistic foreign policy —- is that he is just too ideologically rigid. The only way that Ron Paul and his many legion of fans would be happy, is if the Federal Reserve were closed, the military were dismantled and America went back to gold standard. Of course, all of those things are just unrealistic at best.

He followed up those remarks with this bit idiotic nonsense:

So what’s his take on the Republican Party?

“Well, it is not my party. I do not like politics at all,” Paul said. “I think both parties are Keynesian economists and support positions that I do not like. So, the party, in many ways is irrelevant.”

Which is precisely why Ron Paul will never be President of the United States of America or thankfully anything else in the Republican Party ever again.  I mean, if the man cannot tell the difference between an Marxist and an Republican; then he needs to get the heck out politics for good. because it is quite obvious that he is not fit to serve in any sort of capacity.

The Bottom line is:

Vote for and support Mitt Romney — He might not be perfect, but he is much smarter than Ron Paul!

Video: RNC’s Ron Paul tribute

This comes via Mediaite’s Andrew Kirell, who calls it an “Epic Fail”:

Now, personally, I watched it; and I did not think that it was that overly horrible.  Still just the same, Andrew rightfully does point out the following:

The tribute did make slight nods to Paul’s belief in sound money and his fight to audit the Federal Reserve. But it ignored Paul’s fight to end GOP sacred cows like the costly and futile War on Drugs; his fight to protect civil liberties from executive overreach like the PATRIOT Act; and his battle against an unsustainable foreign policy of “maintaining empire” and playing World Police.

The video also neglected to mention just how Paul would like to cut the deficit.

Instead of the mainstream Republicans’ supposedly “radical” plans to cut from future spending growth, Paul wants to slash budgets left and right… especially the GOP’s sacred-cow national defense. He wants to end all corporate tax loopholes; something the GOP is reluctant to touch. He considers such “pro-business” tax manipulation to be synonymous with crony capitalism.

[….]

The GOP must have thought this video could placate Paul supporters enough to get their vote. Plenty of Republican officials expressed certainty that the Texas congressman will leave the convention fully endorsing the Romney/Ryan ticket. Despite Paul telling Fox’s Neil Cavuto that he has “no plans” to endorse, Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer said she is certain he will hop on the bandwagon.

But that’s just haughty. And wrong. Because until the party actually tries to change instead of occasionally throwing a superficial bone to Paul, then you can expect many of his supporters to maintain a firm position of “not voting for Romney.”

Want proof? Look to the little-reported fact that Paul’s delegates staged a walk-out immediately following the tribute video.

They walked out, and will likely continue to walk out, because the difference between Paul’s following and the GOP’s rank-and-file “Ew, it’s Romney, but we must support him” types is that the former truly believe in consistency and principles, and are wholly interested in maintaining it, while the latter seem blind in their belief that this Romney/Ryan ticket will somehow “save” the country while shutting out the the voices of actual change.

All very valid points, but I do tend to believe, that If I know Ron Paul like I think I do — he most likely is happy that he got any sort of a tribute at all and that his Son Rand is being accepted among the GOP mainstream. The reason I say this is because it was not too long ago that the GOP was headlong into President Bush’s Neoconservative nonsense and people like Ron Paul could not get a word in edgewise, much less a tribute from the GOP. So, I would say that Ron Paul is happy that his message has been accepted this much.

As for Romney my feelings are this here: As some of you might know, I have decided to cast my lot with Mitt Romney. I came to this decision last night, after watching the behavior of the left, when it came to Mia Love and Ann Romney; I mean sometimes, one must say, enough is enough and that I did and I have no regrets at all. I do have some doubts about Romney, but at this point; anything is better than Barack Obama. I mean, the man has been a horrible failure in many areas, even though I did not vote for Obama. I did kind of expect some sort of result from him. However, myself and many others like me in this position — got nothing.

So, I am in for Romney — come hell, high water and hacked blog. I am voting for something who will actually change things — for the good.

 

Thoughts on the RNC Convention so far

I am watching the RNC Convention over on CSPAN.  Which has a very nice design this year, by the way.

So far, so good. Some of the speakers are very good. Some of them come off sounding like empty-headed mouth breathers.

However, I will continue to watch. I am not voting for Romney, by the way. I am voting for this guy here.

Terrorists Busted: This time it is Military involved

I saw this story come through my RSS reader and I wanted to wait to see the reaction of the right, before I blogged about it myself.

I have to say that Ace and AllahPundit’s reactions were very good and I commend them for taking the stand that they did. Kudos gents.

Just a quote of the story:

LUDOWICI, Ga. (AP) — Four Army soldiers based in southeast Georgia killed a former comrade and his girlfriend to protect an anarchist militia group they formed that stockpiled assault weapons and plotted a range of anti-government attacks, prosecutors told a judge Monday.

Prosecutors in rural Long County, near the sprawling Army post Fort Stewart, said the militia group of active and former U.S. military members spent at least $87,000 buying guns and bomb components. They allege the group was serious enough to kill two people — former soldier Michael Roark and his 17-year-old girlfriend, Tiffany York — by shooting them in the woods last December in order to keep its plans secret.

“This domestic terrorist organization did not simply plan and talk,” prosecutor Isabel Pauley told a Superior Court judge. “Prior to the murders in this case, the group took action. Evidence shows the group possessed the knowledge, means and motive to carry out their plans.”

One of the Fort Stewart soldiers charged in the case, Pfc. Michael Burnett, also gave testimony that backed up many of the assertions made by prosecutors. The 26-year-old soldier pleaded guilty Monday to manslaughter, illegal gang activity and other charges. He made a deal to cooperate with prosecutors against the three other soldiers.

Prosecutors said the group called itself F.E.A.R., short for Forever Enduring Always Ready. Pauley said authorities don’t know how many members it had.

Now Ace says this:

“Anarchist”? It’s an old trick of the media to call Neo-Nazis “right-wing” but then simply call left-wingers what they identify themselves as. “Anarchists,” for example.

Now, I initially thought these guys had to be right-wing (or what the media terms “right-wing”) because I could not imagine a left-wing motive here.

But a commenter points out the left wing is extremely angry about poor Bradley Manning, America’s Pluckiest Little Traitor.

So I guess that is an open possibility, and would explain the media not immediately calling these guys “rightwing.”

I do find that very suspicious. I find it suspicious that this isn’t the biggest story in the media. If it’s not, there must be a reason the media is in “let’s be restrained here” mode.

A while back, I made a point, that Ace made in his writings quoted above, the last time, when some idiot picked up a gun and decided to act on a political matter; here is what I wrote:

Terrorism is terrorism —- period —- full stop.  It does not matter to me and really should not matter to anyone, whether if it is being carried out by some Muslim, who thinks Jihad means to kill people or some Neo-Nazi, who cannot tell a Sikh from a Muslim.  Whether the crime is being committed by a far right wing militia person or a left wing radical communist — the point is the person is committing a crime.  What also should matter to all Americans, left and right, is that we live in such a lousy hyper-partisan Country these days, that no mainstream media outlets outside of Fox News could be bothered to report this incident.

Which is true in this case too. Those who are even bothering to write about it, are doing something just as bad. They are using this to further the Meme that the Military is full of terrorist creeps like these people here. To me, that is just sad, because not every person in the military is this sort of deranged person.

Another thing too, and I feel the need to say this; because no one else really has — the sad thing about this is that it undermines the efforts of people like Soldiers’ angels and other such groups. People read about stuff like this and in the back of their minds, aided by what they read in the liberal blogosphere; they think, “why would I want to give to people, who do stuff like this here?” It is sick that the liberal left would use an incident like this to create a “Military are terrorists” Meme. But, again, that is your liberal left, of whom, one of their more popular bloggers said of the Military, “Screw Them” which was ironic, considering he was Military himself. But, again, that is the left and that is their attitude towards the Military. Which is one of the reasons why I stopped voting Democratic Party. (Among many!)

 

Video: Living proof that Liberals are classless buffoons

I saw this earlier, and I did not want to watch it. Because I know the emotions that it would trigger inside of me.

But, I finally did and Yes, it did make me very angry. 😡

Watch MSNBC’s Chris Matthews, the wife-beating drunk acting like a complete and total classless buffoon on National TV.

My feelings are simply this: what does it say about the modern day Democratic Party? When the only thing that they have left, is race-baiting? Their policies have failed, they’re ideas to recover the economy has failed and now all they have left, is smearing anyone that disagrees with them are racist? This is worse than the Neoconservatives, who call anyone who disagrees with them Antisemitic.  Both are equally as lame and ignorant, both cheapen the discussion, and both point to a loss of ideas.

This is another reason, of a litany of reasons, as to why I stopped voting for Democrats. I mean, they are quite obviously desperate and are now hurling anything that will stick. This sort of nonsense was predicted by myself on my old blog way back in 2008, when Obama was elected and now, we are seeing it first hand.

It is amazing to watch. Hope the Democrats enjoy losing, because that is what is going to happen.

 

Elizabeth Warren Aide roughs up a Republican tracker

This comes via The Weekly Standard:

The Video:

youtube placeholder image

The Story:

The Republican staffer holding the camera films Warren leaving the event and entering her SUV. One of Warren’s aides, who looks to be, perhaps, her driver, pushes the camera twice, and the second time it falls to the ground. The tracker picks up the camera and continues filming, while the Warren staffer says, “Dude, get out of my face or I’m going to call the police.”

“It’s a public event,” the Republican staffer says multiple times. Finally, as he’s walking away, the Warren staffer says, “You’re messing with the wrong people.”

This is your Democrats; what they cannot control, they attack. You think this is bad, wait till after the election and on voting day. Things are going to get rough, trust me.

Now, if that would have been me; that would have been about the time that I would have pulled out my 9mm and I would emptied a clip into him. He would have never touched my camera or me. This is why I believe, if you are a Republican tracker, GO ARMED and if they touch you, you shoot them, just make sure you get the fact that he touched you or assaulted you on tape. So, when you go to court, you can prove you were defending yourself.
