Tough Talk From The Philster . . .
. . . at today’s Big Labor Nuremberg Rally:
“I want you all to know that Bobby Schilling has had a few months, but he is going to be a real unhappy man by Nov. 2.”
Quote Of The Day
From Doctor Zero:
“President Obama ‘unveiled’ his new ‘stimulus’ plan in Wisconsin today. It was a lot like watching an alcoholic unveil his new plan to get sober by switching to lite beer.”
How Dare You Question His Objectivity
The Hare-Dispatch gives embattled Supreme Court Justice Tom Kilbride a front page story to whine about how mean everyone is to him—especially those who are working against his retention.
The H-D allows Kilbride to bloviate a lot about how he will be “fair”, but they fail to mention that Kilbride isn’t exactly a legal scholar, and that he got to be Supreme Court Justice with Big Labor and Democrat Party $$$$.
Back in ’87 sainted murderer Teddy Kennedy forever politicized Supreme Court justices when he “borked” Bork. And it has been thus ever since.
Does anyone really think Obama nominated “wise Latina” Sotomayer and academic/political Kagan because he thought they would be “fair”? Um, no, they got where they are because Obama knew they would be reliable votes for his leftwing ideology, just as Illinois Democrats and their Big Labor allies knew Kilbride would be a reliable vote for their ideology.
Kilbride needs to cut the crap—he wasn’t elected Judge because he would be “fair”, or because he he was a great legal scholar; he is the Supreme Court Justice paid to vote for Democrats and Big Labor and he needs to deal with that inconvenient fact.
It’s Alright Ma, I’m Only Bleeding
At a conference in Chicago with gang leaders about how to stop gang killings, the cry was give us JOBS! JOBS! JOBS!
A former gang member said:
“The kids respect finance, they respect the dollar . . . And they see older guys who can’t get jobs, we’ve been job-trained to death but we can’t find work, and they won’t listen . . . I mean [Obama] sent money to Florida to protect pelicans . . . Pelicans? But what about kids dying in the streets of Chicago?”
Kids dying in the streets of Chicago is the dirty little secret of liberalism, where pelicans have more political clout than dead black kids.
The Mind Of A Liberal
Liberal Hare-Dispatch columnist Don Wooten is baffled by Glenn Beck, so he turns to bizarre sources for information: the British Economist and ancient Brit, Will Shakespeare for guidance.
Not surprisingly, they offer no clue to the clueless Wooten.
So he goes for the trite Why Is The Other So Stupid move that we all know so well:
“Logic and cold reasoning go out the window when you fulminate about ‘taking our country back’, or ‘restoring American’s honor’ . . . which have no objective meaning. . . .Each person interprets these terms according to his or her individual experience and beliefs.”
So true. But then Wooten cranks it up a notch:
“What does Beck mean by honor? Where did he get the notion that we have lost it? And what, exactly, does he want us to do to get it back?”
Wooten was evidently in a coma from about ’06 to ’08 when lefties were shrieking they wanted to “take our country back”. And they did.
But while Wooten would never think to ask what POTUS candidate Obama meant by campaigning on “hope and change”, which have no objective meaning, he now demands a non-politician like Beck to answer his silly and inane questions:
“Is voting Republican all it takes?”
Is voting Democrat all it took for “I’m Not Bush” and “Hopenchange” to take over the federal government in ’06 and ’08?
Consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.
He Was For It Before He Was Against It
Section 1322 of Obamacare allows states to opt out of the healthcare mandate.
So the Democrat Oregon Senator, who voted FOR Obamacare sent a letter to the Oregon health authority director urging him to seek a waiver so that they can “come up with innovative solutions that the Federal government has never had the flexibility or will to implement . . . Because you and I believe that the heart of real health reform is affordability and not mandates.”
Well, alrighty then.
It’s useless to ask Burris, Durbin or Hare to get our state a waiver from mandates—they are leftwing true believers.
But what about Kirk, Brady, Schilling, and Morthland?
Wouldn’t that be a juicy talking point to campaign on?
Vote for me and I’ll do all I can to make sure you won’t be forced to buy health insurance.
A Fearless Prediction
From Tony Cameron:
“In two years [the 17th Congressional] district won’t exist and no RICO lefty will be electable in the new one.”
A Fish Doesn’t Know It’s In Water
Retired 14th Judicial Circuit Judge John Donald O’Shea has an Op-Ed in The Hare-Dispatch about the danger of loading up government with too many public employees, which he summed up thusly:
“It’s a problem because without private sector workers, there is nobody to make up the short fall between what the government pays out in salaries and what it takes in taxes. . . The problem with government employees is that they generally process piles of paper, rather than producing food, housing or automobiles. Sadly, tax forms are not edible.”
O’Shea’s inconvenient truth is that he sucks $100,000 per year, or maybe more from taxpayers. Before O’Shea was a judge, he was with the RICO State’s Attorney office. After that, he had a failed private practice before he became a judge.
So the guy decrying the taxpayer drain by “government employees” is in fact, draining taxpayers himself—from two separate taxpayer tits—State’s Attorney office and Circuit Judge.
How DARE those bloodsucking government employees demand even MORE of our tax money to support their rich and famous lifestyle!
