  4. Pimping for Al Franken

    EVEN the Democrats in Minnesota now realize their new US Sen. Al Franken was elected with the help of ACORN chicanery. The disgraced, pimp-friendly community organizing group claims it registered 43,000 new Minnesota voters. If just 1 percent were fraudulent but survived the recount process, that's 430 votes, almost all cast for Franken, who won by just 312 votes. Asks Katherine Kersten in the Minneapolis Star-Tribune, "Did ACORN folks pull some fast ones to help get their favorite son Franken elected -- a win that handed Democrats the 60-vote, veto-proof majority that they needed to enact their liberal agenda?"

    /Mark Ritchie, the Secretary of State/Recount Leader is a huge ACORN nut

  5. Might as well add in 10/1/2009 as the day Iran was officially allowed to have the bomb.

    France has pulled sanctions off of the table.
    Russia has tied sanctions to cooperation with the IAEA (yeah,the group who can't find crack in a crackhouse) and the Obama administration is now saying they'll hold one on ones with Iranian 'negotiators'.

    Per JCM : and the centrifuges keep spinning.

  32. Senators turn back ID requirement for immigrant healthcare

    Senate Finance Committee Democrats rejected a proposed a requirement that immigrants prove their identity with photo identification when signing up for federal healthcare programs.

    Finance Committee ranking member Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) said that current law and the healthcare bill under consideration are too lax and leave the door open to illegal immigrants defrauding the government using false or stolen identities to obtain benefits.

    Grassley's amendment was beaten back 10-13 on a party-line vote.

    The bill, authored by committee Chairman Max Baucus (D-Mont.), would require applicants to verify their names, places of birth and Social Security numbers. In addition, legal immigrants would have to wait five years, as under current law, after obtaining citizenship or legal residency to access federal healthcare benefits such as Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program or receive tax credits or purchase insurance through the exchange created by the legislation.

    But the would not require them to show a photo ID, such as a drivers license. Without that requirement, the bill "remains dearly lacking when it comes to identification," Grassley said. "Frankly, I'm very perplexed as to why anyone would oppose this amendment," he said.

    /um, because illegals illegally vote Democrat?

    Well obviously he's a racist. You know that asking anyone who isn't obviously a member of the oppressive white hegemonic class for ID is racist. Just ask Skip Gates and Obamamamamamama.

    ReplyDelete
  36. And we all know that illegals would never vote -- they know better. But they should be allowed to. They are only "illegal" because of racist laws. Immigration law is only the most recent incarnation of Jim Crow. The barbed wire fences at the border are unconscious representation of the concentration camp mentality of the white-elitist dominance, a revelation of their inner repressed desire to engage in active genocide against people of color. To refer to underprivileged minority members of the productive class as "illegal" reflects passive genocidal tendencies that under a Republican administration would be brought out into the open.

    The danger is real -- you saw the polls on Health Care -- 46% of the American people are racists. And Gove Vidal said that the Republicans will stage a coup and erect a military dictatorship. We've already seen their footsoldiers with guns at "tea parties." Be afraid. Our only salvation is to love and obey the Great Leader. It worked for Mao.

  40. Well you can just about forget about the idea of putting enough troops into Afghanistan to turn the tides, it's a political football to the one and he is probably going to pander to his base rather than do the right thing ...

    "Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and special Afghan and Pakistan envoy Richard Holbrooke appeared to be leaning toward supporting a troop increase, the official said.

    White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel and Gen. James Jones, Obama's national security adviser, appeared to be less supportive, the official said. Vice President Joe Biden, who attended the meeting, has been reluctant to support a troop increase, favoring a strategy that directly targets al-Qaida fighters who are believed to be hiding in Pakistan."

    Destined to Fail

    Well then maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised again about him basically continuing Bush's policies on the war on terror.

  65. Pooh, Christopher Robin Reunited In New Book

    When we left them, Christopher Robin was going away, and Things were going to be Different.

    Now, more than eight decades later, a rumor is sweeping the Hundred Acre Wood. According to Owl, who heard it from Rabbit, who heard it from Piglet, the adventures are about to resume. It falls to the bear to pass on the news to Eeyore.

    "It's Christopher Robin," said Winnie-the-Pooh. "He's coming back."

    The drama (and for the Hundred Acre Wood, where life is lived gently, this qualifies) unfurls in the first authorized sequel to A.A. Milne's classic children's tales. Called "Return to the Hundred Acre Wood," the book by author David Benedictus goes on sale Oct. 5 and picks up where Milne's "The House at Pooh Corner," first published in 1928, left off.

    Pooh, Christopher Robin Reunited In New Book
    _____________________________________________________________
    I supposed Kenny Loggins will have to come up with a new tune now....

    Christopher Robin and I walked along
    Under branches lit up by the moon
    Posing our questions to Owl and Eeyore
    As our days disappeared all too soon
    But I've wandered much further today than I should
    And I can't seem to find my way back to the wood, so

    {Refrain}
    Help me if you can I've got to get
    Back to the house at Pooh Corner by one
    You'd be surprised, there's so much to be done
    Count all the bees in the hive
    Chase all the clouds from the sky - Chase the clouds away
    Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh

    Winnie the Pooh doesn't know what to do
    Got a honey jar stuck on his nose
    He came to me asking help and advice
    And from here no one knows where he goes
    So I sent him to ask of the Owl if he's there
    How to loosen a jar from the nose of a bear

    {Refrain}

    It's hard to explain how a few precious things
    Seem to follow throughout all our lives
    After all's said and done I was watching my son
    Sleeping there with my bear by his side
    So I tucked him in, kissed him, and as I was going
    I swear that old bear whispered, "Boy, welcome home"

    Believe me if you can, I've finally come
    Back to the house at Pooh Corner by one
    What do you know, there's so much to be done
    Count all the bees in the hive
    Chase all the clouds from the sky - Chase the clouds away
    Back to the days of Christopher Robin and - Back to the days
    Back to the ways of Christopher Robin and - Back to the ways
    Back to the days of Pooh
    Oo-oo-ooh, oo-oo-ooh

  75. /set in a nursing home

    Pooh returns to see Christopher Robin as the latter has been on a morphine drip in the old people's home for several months since the NHS won't treat his infected hangnail since he's now 88 years old and, well, who cares if another old fart goes off. Pooh and the gang comfort Christopher Robin. They tell him about all the stuff that's gone on since he left -- how Roo finally came out of the "pouch" so to speak and now he and Tigger are living together and have a beauty salon. Piglet has been taking zoloft, prozac, and ritalin and is much calmer now even if he doesn't seem to blink very often. Rabbit finally realized the folly of his anal retentive ways and is now an activist for PETA. Owl wrote a best selling book on Kant and the Hermeneutics of Gender in "Are You Being Served". As for Pooh, he has taken off most of his excess weight and is a vegan, having come to realize the cruelty of his endless persecution of bees and theft of their labor. He now subsists on bark and wheat grass tea and enjoys suberb colonic health.

    After hearing all this, Christopher Robin tells Pooh of his life -- the boarding school -- the hell of Dunkirk and a German prison camp -- eventually his struggle to make a living in the post WWII world where his former wealth and privilege meant nothing. He had spent most of the previous 60 years as a clerk in a department store selling ladies stockings.

    At the end, Pooh tells him that it's been nice sharing in his dementia, but then says "well, NHS has declared you a lost cause. Farewell old friend" and pull the plug. In the final scene Pooh explains how this was merciful, just, and for the common good.

    They say it's our "enthusiasm" that wins over the judges.

    Still chuckling over the frothing moonbat who inadvertently echoed Obama adviser John Holdren in his misdirected tirade about "dying quickly".

    She can't delete it herself?

    I don't know, that's a good question, does Blogger let you do that?

  134. Our new secretary just set a Slinky on my desk. She was in the next room yesterday when I projectile launched coffee through my nose after reading LC's goat/slinky thing. I can't wait to get home. If I can get a good photo of our dwarf goat playing with the Slinky, I might have an avatar.

  138. redstateredneck, thanks for asking.

    I made the mistake of picking up my (all of) 33 pound granddaughter 3 weeks ago and I have PAID! I thought "Surely, by now, I can do this".
    So I am working on it...again. Computering aggravates it, unfortunately. Does that suck or what?
