Meghan McCain: The nut doesn't fall far from the tree

Meghan McCain, daughter of Senator John McCain, has recently demonstrated why the Republican party has lost its way.

She's been criticizing Ann Coulter. Seems Ann's strident style makes it hard for little Meghan to make nice with all her liberal friends.

And therein lies the problem.

When you have misguided lunatics trying desperately to take our country down the socialist path, why in the world would you be trying to make nice with them?

This is precisely the time that you need straight shooters like Ann Coulter calling a spade a spade and making the left own up to their idiocy!

I just read Ann's book "Guilty" and I would highly recommend it. It clearly and cleverly points out the Left's indefensible positions on virtually every issue, while constantly playing the victim card. Put it on your "Must Read" list!

As for Meghan, she's just proved the nut doesn't fall far from the tree. She's a lefty TRYING to say she's a Republican. If Republicans listen to nutcases like her, we're doomed to continued losses at the polls, and our freedoms to ever-expanding government.

Wisdom of Hillary

A note to Obama regarding your villifying of Rush Limbaugh for his criticism of your policies -- Here's a quote from your Secretary of State:

"I'm sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and disagree with this administration, somehow you're not patriotic. We need to stand up and say we're Americans, and we have the right to debate and disagree with any administration."

For once, I think I agree with you, Hil!

Quote of the Day

The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.

-- Margaret Thatcher

Divorcing the Liberals

I'm not sure who the author of the following letter is, but I share his sentiments!

Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives,
socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950's, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right so let's just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

Here is a model separation agreement:

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.

We don't like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell (You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them).

We'll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies and illegal aliens. We'll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO's and rednecks. We'll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood .

You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we'll help provide them security.

We'll keep our Judeo-Christian values.. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N.. but we will no longer be paying the bill.

We'll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks and over sized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.

You can give everyone health care if you can find any practicing doctors. We'll continue to believe health care is a luxury and not a right. We'll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National Anthem. I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute Imagine, I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing, Kum Ba Ya or We Are the World.

We'll practice trickle down economics and you can give trickle up poverty your best shot. Since it often so offends you, we'll keep our history, our name and our flag.

Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I'll bet you ANWAR which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.

Sincerely,

John J. Wall
Law Student and an American

P.S. Also, please take Barbara Streisand & Jane Fonda with you

Obama Administration: Amateur Hour at the White House

In a clever-by-half move to symbolize their desire to "hit the rest button" on our relations with Russia, the Obama administration via Secretary of State Hillary Clinton presented Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov with a red "reset" button. The problem is, instead of finding the Russian word for "reset" they managed to use a variation of it that means "overcharged"!

This despite Clinton's proud pronouncement at the event that they worked really hard to get the precise word for "reset"!

This begs the question, with the vast resources of the United States government at their disposal, the Obama administration cannot manage to find ONE person who actually understands the Russian language?

The more subtle humor I found here was that presenting a "red button" to our Cold War nemesis seemed strikingly odd considering the years we spent worrying about who was going to push "The Button" first! I'm surprised they didn't just run down to Staples to pick up an "Easy Button"!

A second display of brilliance occurred with the visit of British Prime Minister Gordon Brown. Brown presented Obama with a pen holder carved from the oak timbers of the Victorian anti-slaver ship HMS Gannet, once named HMS President. It was a sister ship of the HMS Resolute from which the Oval Office's desk is made. In addition, Brown presented Obama a first edition of a seven-volume biography of Winston Churchill. Both were unique and thoughful gifts.

Showing their equally amazing capacity for thoughtfulness, Obama presented Brown with 25 DVDs of some of Obama's favorite movies.

Nothing like a last-minute trip to Wal-Mart to find a gift for a visting foreign dignitary!

As someone else quipped, this is truly "Amateur Hour" at the White House, and portends endless entertainment for the next four years.

Obama Tilting at the Limbaugh Windmill

You'd think with our economy tanking the leader of the free world might be focused pretty exclusively on resolving it.

Instead, Obama has been sucked into an on-going verbal sparring match with Rush Limbaugh! The sad part is, he hasn't a prayer in a war of words with Limbaugh. It's like a man with a pea shooter getting sucked into a fight with a street gang!

This is not meant to credit Limbaugh's rhetorical style (though he is a master at what he does!) Rather it's a testament to the power of the ideas behind his speech. Limbaugh has the history of the founding fathers on his side. Obama's stuck recycling the repeated failures of long-discredited liberal ideas.

Obama Lies with a Straight Face

It's breathtaking how sincere Obama can look when staring into that teleprompter and lying to America. It's almost as if he's practiced it all his life!

Remember the "No tax increase on anyone making less than $250,000 per year" promise? He stated it time and time again during the campaign, then restated it in his address to Congress last week. At the same time he's proposing removing the current cap on FICA which is currently $102K. Oops....so, much for $250K! Now if you make over $102K you've just had an extra 7% added to your tax bill. Since your employer matches the FICA this amounts to a tax hike for them, too, which will probably affect the amount of your next pay raise...or whether you even have a job! Sweet!!

But that's only the beginning. Have you looked into his new Cap and Trade plan? He's planning on raising $650B from that little tax. Who'll pay it? Only those who use any form of energy from fossil fuels. So, that's 80% of your electricity and all of your heating fuels. It will amount to approximately $2,116 additional tax on every man, woman and child in the country.

And he's done it all with a straight face. Truly amazing.

Here's your new mantra: Obama Lied, Economy Died!!
