‘buried in an obama t-shirt’

Date February 6, 2010

two nights ago, The One spoke at the democratic national committee fundraiser in washington dc. and though now he says his attention is on job creation (how many trillion dollars spent and lost jobs later??) he said that healthcare reform was still something he is fighting for. in the next breath he told about a letter he received from a woman, a campaign worker, who was suffering from breast cancer and later died:

I got a letter — I got a note today from one of my staff — they forwarded it to me — from a woman in St. Louis who had been part of our campaign, very active, who had passed away from breast cancer. She didn’t have insurance. She couldn’t afford it, so she had put off having the kind of exams that she needed. And she had fought a tough battle for four years. All through the campaign she was fighting it, but finally she succumbed to it. And she insisted she’s going to be buried in an Obama t-shirt.

i have nothing to say about the woman’s wishes to be buried in the t-shirt. people do all kinds of things as is her right — its not about her or that.

but obama…

what a lovely, lovely self-serving anecdote at a fundraiser. is there no end to this man’s narcissism? or nothing off-bounds? must everything revolve around him and his bulbous, well-fed ego?

update: i didn’t see that hotair has something on this including the video. go check it out.

too late to apologize: a declaration (video)

Date February 4, 2010

this is really quite terrific… a parody of sorts of our founders and their decision to write the declaration of independence. here’s how the makers of this video describe it:

‘When people who love politics, pop culture and filmmaking are asked to humanize the sentiment of the founders in writing the declaration, we sometimes get carried away.’





yep. awesomeness.

upcoming congressional races: are there 10 more scott brown’s out there?

Date February 2, 2010

with the big wins in virginia and new jersey governor races, gop’ers were beginning to really hope that change might be coming in 2010. and then hell froze over when scott brown won ted kennedy’s seat in massachusetts.

with that incredible senate race, coupled with the now widespread populace opinion that obama’s policies suck, (R)’s now seem to have a new confidence in running for elective office around the country in 2010 — even in areas that are normally quite democratically ‘blue’.

time mag has pulled together a list of 10 gop contenders that promise to give dems a run for their money in the fall. i’ve picked out a few of them below that i am watching closely:

1. marco rubio, florida - my favorite up and coming young gun conservative! he stands for bedrock conservative principles. i blogged about him here. marco needs to knock off rino charlie crist in the primary before he meets the incumbent, kendrick meeks.

2. kelly ayotte, new hampshire - she’s running for retiring judd gregg’s seat. she was the state’s AG until stepping down to run for the senate against democrat paul hodes. some have likened kelly to sarah palin.

3. sean duffy, wisconsin - assuming he wins the gop primary, sean would go toe-to-toe with david obey, the all-powerful head of the house appropriations committee and well known for his personal and political moonbattery. sean is a successful district attorney who also happens to be a former star of MTV’s The Real World (Boston), a champion lumberjack competitor, and an ESPN commentator. oh, and did i mention a pro-life, pro-2nd amendment conservative?

there is no doubt that barack obama and his radical policies like healthcare reform and bloated spending bills, has created a very loud pushback from an energized gop and others across the country. the much aligned tea party movement? is real, viable, and with a big political impact. independents and even rino (R)’s, who put obama in office, are now rejecting The One these days. will this all result in some gop landslide in the 2010 elections? i’m not so sure but there is a sea change coming with more and more good gop candidates stepping up — and we can thank barack obama’s hopechangery for it.

barack’s bored

Date January 29, 2010

it’s only the beginning of the 2nd year of barack obama’s term as president. it’s also about the time he historically starts to get itchy feet and looks for a bigger, better gig. here is a brief timeline of his elected work history and it’s very telling:

1996: Elected Illinois state senator
2000: Ran for US House of Representatives (defeated in primary)
2002: Began running for US Senate
2004: Elected US Senator
2006: Began running for President
2008: Elected President

hmm. every 2 years. if the most powerful, exciting job on the planet is boring to you then what can possibly make you happy? with everything at his disposal, some are suggesting that barack obama’s string of humiliating defeats — which have included special elections, the olympics, healthcare reform, and now thankfully the ksm trial — has caused him to become bored as POTUS, not quite as invested ‘in the game’ as he used to be.

i have no problem with people who are ambitious about their goals. and i certainly understand that whoever is in power has tools at their disposal to push through their agenda for the country. i get that. but i expect that same person to have a clue on how they will move forward and govern even though there has been setbacks and their ‘plans’ have been uprooted by we the people. a bored president is a dangerous president.

check out this excerpt from byron york:

By mid-2006, Majority Leader Harry Reid “sensed his frustration and impatience, had heard rumblings that Obama was already angling to head back home and take a shot at the Illinois governorship,” write Mark Halperin and John Heilemann in the new book Game Change. Reid knew “Obama simply wasn’t cut out to be a Senate lifer.”

According to the book, the majority leader invited Obama to his office for a talk. “You’re not going to go anyplace here,” Reid told Obama. “I know that you don’t like it, doing what you’re doing.” Reid suggested Obama run for president. Obama had been a senator for all of 18 months at the time. Soon after, he was off and running.

What drove Obama was not just ambition, although he is certainly ambitious. As he became frustrated in each job, Obama concluded that the problem was not having the power to do the things he wanted to do. So he sought a more powerful position.

Today he is in the most powerful position in the world. Yet he has spent a year struggling, and failing, to enact far-reaching makeovers of the American economy. So now, even in the Oval Office, there are signs that the old dissatisfaction is creeping back in.

At a Jan. 17 Martin Luther King Day event at Washington’s Vermont Avenue Baptist Church, Obama brought up the fact that many people see him as almost preternaturally calm. “I have a confession to make,” Obama said. “There are times I’m not so calm … when progress seems too slow … when it feels like all these efforts are for naught, and change is so painfully slow in coming, and I have to confront my own doubts.”

Obama said it to be inspirational, but the fact is, in the past, that’s when he looked for a new job.

good grief. if barack obama didn’t realize that all of the power, all the hype & imagery, and of course personal massive ego awesomeness in the world was no guarantee that he and his thugs could run over the country with their singularly distructive agenda, he really is an arrogant, empty-suited boy king.

hey barack: i don’t know if you’re bored with all of us, but we’re so bored with you. work is hard, finishing well is a good goal to have, and winning elections has consequences.
