Obama says opposing socialism is "selfish"

First, the Obamessiah accused those who disagreed with his policies as being a bunch of bitter, gun-clinging religious bigots. Now he says that if you’re not on board with his socialistic ideas for income seizure and redistribution, you’re selfish, too. (h/t: Ed Morrissey) “The point is, though, that — and it’s not just charity, it’s not just that I want to help the middle class and working people who are trying to get in the middle class — it’s that when we actually make sure that everybody’s got a shot – when young people can all go to college, when everybody’s got decent health care, when everybody’s got a little more money at the end of the month –...

The One casts out the unbelievers

Posted 31 Oct 2008 in 2008 election, Barack Obama, intolerance

(Photoshop h/t: Slublog)In true Liberal fashion, Obama has no tolerance for those who won’t drink the Kool-Aid. Reporters who represent newspapers that have endorsed John McCain have been booted from Obama’s plane. The Obama campaign has decided to heave out three newspapers from its plane for the final days of its blitz across battleground states — and all three endorsed Sen. John McCain for president! The NY POST, WASHINGTON TIMES and DALLAS MORNING NEWS have all been told to move out by Sunday to make room for network bigwigs — and possibly for the inclusion of reporters from two black magazines, ESSENCE and JET, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned. Despite pleas from top editors of the three newspapers that...

Obama denies he’s a socialist

Posted 30 Oct 2008 in 2008 election, Barack Obama, SCOTUS, socialism

All the attention being paid to Obama’s socialist views, associates, and policies have him in defensive mode during these crucial final days of the campaign. He went out of his way yesterday to deny he’s a socialist. Jonathan Leffingwell lays the smack down to the contrary: Aside from his well-documented “spread the wealth” and “SCOTUS should have forced redistribution from the bench” comments, and aside from his work with the Democratic Socialists of America, and aside from his attending socialist conferences while at Columbia, and aside from his admission that he “carefully” chose and sought out Marxist friends and professors…aside from all of that, there’s no reason to believe that he’s a socialist wolf in sheep’s clothing. Put another...

The Barack Obama Half-Hour Worship Hour

Posted 30 Oct 2008 in 2008 election, Barack Obama, indoctrination

I didn’t even bother to watch Barack’s Half-Hour Worship Hour last night (I knew I wouldn’t be able to stomach that much propaganda at one sitting), but Pam Meister did and wrote an excellent review. Amber waves of grain. Children waving flags. Happy veterans. Glowing young couples. These are just some of the images seen on the Obama Worship Hour (otherwise known as a half hour paid political advertisement) last evening, broadcast on five channels: NBC, MSNBC, CBS, Fox and Univision. CNN declined the generous offer; ABC was unable to reschedule its Wednesday lineup in time. FOX News was not even invited to join the other supplicants at the altar.One of the biggest complaints that Obama’s critics have is...

Would Obama pass a standard security clearance?

Posted 30 Oct 2008 in 2008 election, Barack Obama

Something else to consider before voting Barack Obama as commander in chief: in light of Obama’s contacts and associations with communists, socialists, and terrorists, could Barack Obama get a Security Clearance? And if not, why should we give him control of our nuclear arsenal? Here are two articles detailing why Obama would fail, courtesy of historian and political commentator Daniel Pipes and Cliff Kincaid, editor of the Accuracy in Media Report.

Where was Barack?

Excessive tardiness and/or absences; not good conduct for a candidate seeking the highest office in the land. Especially when he’s only served 143 days in the Senate so far. (h/t: Debbie)

Biden lowers the tax boom

Posted 29 Oct 2008 in 2008 election, Democrats, taxes

Tax cuts for 95% of working Americans? Pshaw! via New York Post: – Gaffe-prone Joe Biden put his foot in his mouth again yesterday, mistakenly excluding millions of Americans from his running mate’s tax-cut proposal. The Delaware senator’s latest blunder came while discussing Republican tax policies during a television interview in his hometown of Scranton, Pa. “What we’re saying is, that $87 billion tax break doesn’t need to go to people making an average of $1.4 million,” Biden said. “It should go to middle-class people, people who make $150,000 a year.” Actually, Barack Obama has promised to cut taxes on households earning less than $200,000 a year while raising taxes on those who make more than $250,000 annually. During...

LA Times suppresses embarrassing Obama/Khalidi video

Posted 29 Oct 2008 in 2008 election, Barack Obama, media bias, terrorism

The L.A. Times is sitting on a videotape that shows Barack Obama toasting former PLO operative Rashid Khalidi at a “celebration” with a group of Palestinians who are openly hostile towards Israel. The L.A. Times refuses to release the video, instead making the lame assertion that simply talking about what’s on the video is enough. Think they’d hold back such a bombshell if it was McCain toasting a man with clear ties to terrorists? In. The. Tank. “The Los Angeles Times did not publish the videotape because it was provided to us by a confidential source who did so on the condition that we not release it,” said the newspaper’s editor, Russ Stanton. “The Times keeps its promises to...

Fallout 3!

Posted 29 Oct 2008 in games, personal

“War. War never changes…” It’s finally time to traverse the post-apocalyptic wastes once again. Bethesda’s long-awaited Fallout 3 launched yesterday! And although I was working too late to get to the store in time to pick up my copy, you can bet that I’ll be heading directly to Blockbuster after work today to pick up my Fallout 3 Collector’s Edition!
