Heading for the subway this morning I spotted this bumper sticker from NewsBusters.org prominently placed on the back window! What a refreshing bit of sanity here in the seat of Obama County, Williamsburg, Brooklyn.

That bumpersticker is available Free from Newsbusters.
I keep my stickers on magnetic vinyl for use on road trips only.
I once forgot to take my “Extremely Rightwing” one off while stopping at a Wal Mart in WVA one night traveling through.
Yep, got keyed by one of the People of Wal Mart.
I grew up with a friend whose mother was very active in Right to Life and had a bumper sticker on her car that blazed ABORTION IS MURDER.
The car was keyed so many times it began to look kinda like a racing stripe.

A soldier who served in Afghanistan could be the first living recipient of the Medal of Honor since the Vietnam War.
News outlets in and around Cedar Rapids, Iowa, have reported that Staff Sgt. Sal Giunta, who is from that area, is believed to be the soldier being considered for the nation’s highest valor award. Giunta is currently stationed in Vicenza, Italy.
The recommendation has been sent from the Defense Department the White House, according to an Army source, who confirmed that Giunta is likely the nominee.
The Washington Post was the first to report the nomination, but did not reveal the soldier’s name.
A source close to the nomination said the soldier fought through a barrage of fire to repel enemy fighters in a fierce battle in late 2007 in Afghanistan’s treacherous Korengal Valley. His actions saved the lives of several other soldiers.
Well it’s about time

The Battle of New Orleans, 2010
—apologies to Johnny Horton and “The Battle of New Orleans”
In 2005 Katrina hit us bad
Nagin didn’t use the buses that he had
And just as the city started to come back
A BP platform had to blow its stack
(Chorus)
We looked to Obama to do something different
But he’s never run anything, and so he let it go
He spent his time hitting balls out on the golf course
He fumbled and he diddled and he let the oil flow
BP tried hard to cap the well itself
But that’s not so easy way out on the shelf
Obama said that he would give ‘em heck
And keep his boot hard on the corporate neck
We looked to Obama to do something different
But he’s never run anything, and so he let it go
He spent his time hitting balls out on the golf course
He fumbled and he diddled and he let the oil flow
The days went by and we watched ‘em come and go
But Obama wouldn’t even talk to BP’s CEO
He said, “Why would you think I’d even try?
He’s a corporate man and all they do is lie.”
We looked to Obama to do something different
But he’s never run anything, and so he let it go
He spent his time hitting balls out on the golf course
He fumbled and he diddled and he let the oil flow
Yeah, the oil spread and birds and the fish started dyin’
And folks getting hurt all started in to screech
They shouted so loud the President flew down to the Gulf
And was photographed picking up a tarball off the beach
Bobby Jindal tried to make barriers of sand
But the feds wouldn’t put permission in his hands
What the President will do to fix things we don’t know
Except hit BP for billions and watch the oil flow
We looked to Obama to do something different
But he’s never run anything, and so he let it go
He spent his time hitting balls out on the golf course
He fumbled and he diddled and he let the oil flow

Obama: U.S. Borders Cannot Be Secured With Fences and Border Patrols
The Feds haven’t tried, beyond an expected-to-fail token effort, to secure the border yet they insist doing so would fail without any evidence.
Their faith in Socialism, on the other hand, is such they believe it will work despite the clear evidence of it never having worked anywhere it has been tried.

It’s the concept of al-wala’a wa’l-bara’a — “loyalty (to believers) and enmity (towards nonbelievers)” — which is a central tenet of iman — submitting to Allah as sole legislator and divine slave-master who must wield maximum authority over his abject subjects and who expects al-mu’minin to chastise his foes for him with slaying and enslaving and plundering and conquest and later, dhimma and jizya. Pure Islam can only be practiced under full Shari’a law, and Allah only protects from destruction at the hands of mujahedin the blood and property of those practicing pure Islam in accord with Shari’a as well as those who have purchased Aman and therefore are under the apartheid dhimma contract as long as they — the dhimmis, or more accurately, dimam — do not break any of its conditions, so the governments of kuffar are deemed tyrannical and illegitimate for refusing to enjoin al-Ma’ruf and forbid al-Munkar and therefore such governments must be extinguished in jihad al-talab wa’l-ibtida and replaced with the rule of tawhid and suppression of fitnah-inducing and fasaad/zilm-spreading shirk and kufr.

We don’t have that. Every state should have recall for ALL elected officials and, IMO, also for firing unelected bureaucrats, for nullifying unpopular laws, and for voting entire agencies out of existence. The same should apply to the federal government.
I do NOT believe in allowing plebiscites or ballot initiatives for the purpose of taking any “positive” action, such as enacting any new laws or regulations, or putting anybody into office, or spending any money. That leads to all kinds of problems with demagoguery and mob rule. Recall should work purely in the negative, as part of the checks and balances, as a restraint on reckless government action that does not enjoy the consent of the governed.
