I figure I’ll charter a few buses here in Pittsburgh and head on up to try and vote in Massachusetts, two or three times if possible.
Fight fire with fire.
It is not the vote that matters but he who counts the vote.
Lets see those purple fingers!!
Good Morning all. Anything really exciting happen this weekend. I mean besides the J E T S Jets Jets Jets. And I was up in New England watching the game: enemy territory
@ taxfreekiller:
lol,sorry tfk did not see ya there!
In Chicago they honor the original intent of the dead.
@ RIX:
Say,isn’t that how JFK was elected?
Yup, vote theft in Chicago & Texas.
This is supposed to be an earthshaking revelation? Spouting raaaaacist slurs ok, invoking the name of G-d baaaad.

Mockery of the Almighty. Out in the open.
More nontroversy from Schmidt:

Yeah because the other candidate was a font of truth and knowledge. He said so. In all 57 states, recounting the story of his uncle liberating Auschwitz and how open his administration would be.
China supplanted the U.S. as the world’s largest auto market after its 2009 vehicle sales jumped 46 percent, ending more than a century of American dominance that started with the Model T Ford.
Ok but try buying one with satelite radio of GPS. And leather seats: Foogetaboutit!
I voted. The more I think about the “broken spoke’, the more I like it.
@ Nevergiveup:
Yeah but how many flushing toilets do they have in operation. That is my standard of civilized prosperity.
@ Nevergiveup:
Tsk, tsk, tsk. Haven’t they heard of Global Warming and CO2 and all that?
@ African Moondog:
As wolfie pointed out the initials BS are a statement within the name.
Sarah Palin is so much smarter than Zero. And unlike Zero she puts America first. She would NEVER travel the world criticizing this country, groveling before our enemies. She wouldn’t be growing gov’t, talking over private industry, raising taxes, and ignoring the deadly threat of ISLAMIC TERRORISM. And she would be using those words.
fck the donks.
Dingy Harry apologizes to all Americans. LOL
Zero lauds Dingy’s good character.

@ vagabond trader:
Wicked Wolfie.
Regards the flush toilets, haven’t you heard? They are extremely un-green!
@ chickadee:
AG Holder had no comment on Harry Reids “courageous” open dialogue on race. In private he was heard to say “We must get rid of the Nevadan crackah.’
@ vagabond trader:
I gather that Nevadans have an option not available to anyone else when it comes to voting – “None of the Above”. Why don’t more of them make use of it – and what happens when “None of the Above” wins?
@ African Moondog:
Seriously,that is the crappiest invention evah!No odor? ha ha ha. Why not simply go out back to the compost heap, do your business and bury it like a cat.
I saw Al Sharpie Sharpton on FOX this AM ( why they have him is a whole other issue). Sharpie is cool with Harry Reid’s comments?
@ African Moondog:
Also, re: the EcoJohn, what if there is a major malfunction, say the afterburner engages too soon? Plus,there goes the time honored pastime of smoking a cig whilst reading the paper.
These eco ninnies are not only nutters, they are cruel.

Word-of-mouth story from Hyannis, MA – Saturday, from friend who’d attended Scott Brown rally. 9 out of 10 cars honked in favor of their signs supporting Mr. Brown. Lots of ground swell support!
Later, party in private home conversations with Mr. Brown. Someone suggested Michael Steele come up and stump his campaign as the Clinton’s were about to do for Coakley…Mr. Brown rejected the plan, saying “When I go to Washington, I only want to be accountable to the people who’d elected me…” words to that effect.
Brit Hume follows Joshua’s lead – stepping into “strong and courageous”.

Geraldo had Sharpton on with Ann Colter last night.
Sharpton was defending Reed as havibng a good heart , blah balh.
Coulter claimed that Libs alweays forgive racism from other libs.
Then she pointed out that Reed likes ‘light skin, medium skin & dark skin Negroes.” Sharpton was actually speechless.
President Obama declassifies our security information?
@ African Moondog:
Apparently Coakley had been feeling confident of her win, announcing a vacation break – but all has changed. Yes, the winds are changing.
Voted!

We should get rid of that ‘crackah.’ Dingy was describing Zero’s electability.
He said Zero has “no negro accent” unless, of course, he wants one.
Black people must outraged abt. this. Or there is no real racism.
Imagine being a southern Black person with an accent who wants to run for office.
And the buffoons Sharpton and Jackson should be really pissed. But they have to chew and swallow this shit and say it tastes good.
@ Nevergiveup:
Before anyone buys a Chinese car, look at this video, ok?

The latest numbers from Public Policy Polling should have them hitting the panic button even faster:
The Massachusetts Senate race is now a toss up.
Buoyed by a huge advantage with independents and relative disinterest from Democratic voters in the state, Republican Scott Brown leads Martha Coakley 48-47
This is from Michelle Malkin

Wow! A few days ago Loopyd had it at 50% Coakly and 41% Brown.
AAAgh, Loppyd not Loopyd, I never thought that she was loopy!
@ Bumr50:
you betcha!
It’s worth a look. He must intellectualy fear Coulter.
You will notice in the beginning that he goes into some inane attempt to seperate Reed from Trent Lott & then he say’s somethin like “I know that she will disagres”
He then proceeds to try to talk over her, but she ate his lunch anyway.
@ daughter of patriots:
Awesome!
Hopefully you guys pull that off. Much national support, but we can’t vote.
The Boston Globe still has Coakley up 15 points .
Who does one believe?
When is the MA election,tomorrow? Hope so because it is frigid outside and we know librals never go the extra inconvenient mile for anything.
@ RIX:
not the Boston Globe, it’s far from objective.
@ RIX:
The Globe is as credible as her sister the old grey hag.
Taking the Measure of Obama’s Foreign Policy
Saying that the U.S. will ‘bear witness’ to brutality around the word is, in effect, to say that we will send flowers to funerals.
If the first year of President Barack Obama’s foreign policy were a law firm in Charles Dickens’s London, it would have a name like Bumble, Stumble and Skid.
It began with apologies to the Muslim world that went nowhere, a doomed attempt to beat Israel into line, utopian pleas to abolish nuclear weapons, unreciprocated concessions to Russia, and a curt note to the British to take back the bust of Winston Churchill that had graced the Oval Office. It continued with principled offers of serious negotiation to an Iranian regime too busy torturing, raping and killing demonstrators, and building new underground nuclear facilities, to take them up. Subsequently Beijing smothered domestic coverage of a presidential visit but did give the world the spectacle of the American commander in chief getting a talking-to about fiscal responsibility from a Communist chieftain.

@ vagabond trader:
Seems every city has one.
I’m always amazed at the number of Middle East “experts” we have here living in the university section of town.
It always seems that their anti-Israeli letters get printed.
Even though there are so many people to chose from in both catagories:
I think Johnson himself should be the #1 Candidate for Idiotarian.
He now represents everything that is wrong with Liberals and Progressives… and that includes his betrayal, flip flopping lack of standards, how he treats people, his foggy bottom logic, and religious belief in man man climate change crap…etc etc etc too long to list the BS. BTW, he begged for comments on his latest climate change bs topic!!!
I think Glenn Beck should get the Anti award!
@ Bumr50:
They ain’t called biased for nothin. In brighter news, The Worcester Telegram, paper of record in the second largest city in MA, has come out in support of Brown.
@ RIX:
He likes them in their place: firmly on the Democrat Plantation. Didn’t Reid have some less than flattering things to say about Clarance Thomas and his dialect or lack thereof? He didn’t quite call him Uncle Tom the House N*, but IIRC he came pretty close to it.
@ vagabond trader:
Vopte on January 19th. These clips were filmed in Southie, from the look of it.
Corrupt China officials pocket 50 billion: media
Thousands of officials have fled China over the past 30 years with some 50 billion dollars in public funds, state media said Monday, as the government scrambles to stem the tide of corruption.
As many as 4,000 officials have disappeared, using criminal gangs, mainly in the United States and Australia, to launder their ill-gotten gains, buy real estate and set up false identities, the Global Times said.
A joint task force involving 15 Chinese ministries has been set up to choke off graft in government ranks, the paper said.
In 2009, authorities investigated 103 cases involving the outbound travel of more than 300 officials, the paper said, citing a party official tasked with disciplinary issues.
In one case, the disappearance to France in 2008 of Yang Xianghong, a top Communist Party official in Wenzhou city, led to the arrest of his wife, who was charged with trying to launder 20 million yuan (2.9 million dollars), it said.
The paper did not detail how the 50 billion dollars were funneled overseas, or how the officials were linking up with criminal gangs abroad.

How nice that Obama has finally admitted “we’re at war.” How much nicer it would be if his Administration acted like it.

Question for the admins, will we have a run off between top 2 choices?

@ savage:
This reminds me of the old Doritos commercials with Jay Leno. The tag line was “Crunch all you want; we’ll make more.” This is fitting for both the cars and the Chinese people. Chinese automakers could give a wet slap for safety standards; make as much money as possible as fast as possible and don’t think about the safety standards– there are lots more consumers where they came from.
@ m:
I think when the top vote getter has less than 50%, a run off election is necessary. Not trying to make more work, or steal the election or anything, jus sayin 32% is pretty low.
OT,
but the wall of ice is closer today.

Excerpts:
Admins: please feel free to move my above post to another thread. I didn’t realize this was a special sticky topic until after I hit the “submit” button.
Anyway, I don’t know, several of the choices are very good. I like “Broken Spokes,” “Upchuck,” and “The Ponytail.” I haven’t voted yet because I’m still undecided.
@ vagabond trader:
Shhhhh. The game is afoot. LOL
The underwear bomber was read his rights and then used his right to remain silent. He isn’t an american citizen, legal resident or enev legal guest… Reading his rights should have been a short list… He has none.
I am proud to have voted. Although, I wish that William F. Buckley, the first openly conservative media member had been nominated in some manner. Perhaps an award for excellence in Journalism could be awarded from this prestigious site in his honor. Just my personal opinion.
@ Mrs.Robinson:
I get what youre saying but he’s just not important .Its fun to point out his hypocrisy,false facts,conspiracy mongering ,and hysterical shrieking over nothing(while ignoring the big picture)but hes powerless.
While ,say,Obama is a denger to the entire country(and therefore the world),Charles is just flicking his “little green footballs”at a poster of Sarah Palin.
Now if we have a special “Pod Person” award(think”Invasion of the Body Snathers”,he gets all my votes!
Danger too!^
Wasn’t there a Republican candidate for POTUS who was ruined because of using the word “macacha” (sp) in a speech? I have never heard the word before and have no idea of it’s meaning, however the donks pounced on him and destroyed his candidacy.
Yet Harry Reid will get a free pass for his blunder.
The double standard at work here is breathtaking.
I voted to keep it ‘The Fallaci’ and ‘The Ponytail’–it has a nice ring to it.

I agree generally with calling it the Icarus Award, although I wonder if we should have two separate categories.
The Icarus Award would be for paranoid faux-rationalist asshattery.
Then another award would be for exemplary leftwing idiocy; we could call it something like “The Nobel Peace Prize”.
