Government Motors supports Chinese Communist Party propaganda film

Translation: “Thanks, Chairman Obama, for your support!”

Reminder, the U.S. Treasury owns $2.1 billion in preferred GM stock and has a 60.8 percent stake in the company. This means that, despite all the trumpeting about supposedly repaying their bailout loans ahead of schedule, the U.S. government still owns GM. Which means our tax dollars are still funding GM. And what is GM doing with that money? GM is supporting Chinese communist propaganda: In late 2010, General Motors agreed to sponsor a propaganda film celebrating the 90th anniversary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). The CCP made film titled (translated to English) “The Birth of a Party” or “The Great Achievement of Founding the Party” is set to premiere all over the Communist nation on June 15 reported China AutoWeb...

Newt Gingrich: Obama lite

Just four days ago, Newt Gingrich announced his candidacy for President of the United States. And today, he proved his unsuitability to be the Republican candidate by agreeing with Obamacare’s unconstitutional mandate. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich said Sunday that he strongly supports a federal mandate requiring citizens to buy health insurance – a position that has been rejected by many Republicans, including several who likely will be running against him for the Republican presidential nomination. Appearing on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” Gingrich told host David Gregory that he continues to advocate for a plan he first called for in the early 1990s as a Congressman, which requires every uninsured citizen to purchase or acquire health insurance. Gregory played a...

Meet Herman Cain

Herman Cain a.k.a. “The Hermanator”

After watching Herman Cain “win” the GOP debate in South Carolina last week, I’ve been doing a little research into the Republican Party’s newest up-and-comer. The Atlantic has published an excellent bio which highlights Mr. Cain’s first foray into politics — a 1994 smackdown of Bill Clinton’s healthcare plan: His entrance into national politics was a fluke—albeit, if he runs, an enormously beneficial one. In 1994, Cain, then still CEO of Godfather’s Pizza, participated in a town-hall meeting that Bill Clinton held to drum up support for his flagging health-care plan. He challenged the president’s claim that restaurateurs would bear only a marginal new cost. Clinton objected, but Cain wouldn’t relent. “I’d had my financial people run the numbers,”...

Meghan McCain gets ‘naked’ for skin cancer PSA

Posted 12 May 2011 in Midweek Peek

Today’s Rule 5 Midweek Peek is a Meghan McCain; half-naked for a new Style Network skin cancer prevention ad. “My mother would be so ashamed,” a bare-shouldered McCain says, referring to how mom Cindy would react if she knew her daughter didn’t lather on sunscreen before stepping out into the sun. Late last year, Meghan McCain prepared the world for this PSA with her tweet, “Well, I’ve never been half naked on the roof of a building in front of a group of strangers b4, give it up to the girls who took it all off.” Having grown up in the Phoenix area, it’s no secret to McCain that the sun can be harmful. Her father, Sen. John McCain has fought...

SEIU marches with Communist Party

Now that we have a socialist in the White House, the leftist jackwagons at the SEIU have dropped all pretense of being Americans and are fully embracing communism. Zombie has the details: A May Day rally in Los Angeles, co-sponsored by the SEIU and various communist groups, as well as other unions, reflected yet another step in the normalization of self-identified communist and socialist ideologies in the Obama era. Not only did the SEIU help to organize the rally in conjunction with communists, they marched side-by-side with communists, while union members carried communist flags, communists carried union signs, and altogether there was no real way to tell the two apart. …The SEIU devoted $28 million to Obama’s campaign, making...

Lord Vader announces death of terrorist mastermind Obi Wan Kenobi

Posted 11 May 2011 in humor, pop culture

Genius spoof of the Bin Laden kill announcement, via Galactic Empire Times: CORUSCANT — Obi-Wan Kenobi, the mastermind of some of the most devastating attacks on the Galactic Empire and the most hunted man in the galaxy, was killed in a firefight with Imperial forces near Alderaan, Darth Vader announced on Sunday. In a late-night appearance in the East Room of the Imperial Palace, Lord Vader declared that “justice has been done” as he disclosed that agents of the Imperial Army and stormtroopers of the 501st Legion had finally cornered Kenobi, one of the leaders of the Jedi rebellion, who had eluded the Empire for nearly two decades. Imperial officials said Kenobi resisted and was cut down by Lord...

California DOT Forbids Public Display of American Flag

Enough is enough. Can we PLEASE revoke California’s statehood now? In the small town of Orcutt, California, a private association has raised donations to erect a flagpole and monument between a highway exit and a park-and-ride lot, at the entrance to the community’s Old Town section. The pole would hang the American flag, encircled by five pillars, one each for the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard. The California Department of Transportation (CalTrans), however, has stymied the effort, calling it an impermissible act of “public expression.” The Orcutt Pioneer reports that, although the Old Town Orcutt Revitalization Association (OTORA) “intends its flag as a tribute and symbol of freedom” — which would seem to be how...

Religion of Peace update: Yemeni Muslim shouts “Allahu Akbar,” storms cockpit on American Airlines flight

Posted 10 May 2011 in Islam, Religion of Peace update, terrorism

Some crazed Muslim shouts “Allahu Akbar” and tries to break into the cockpit of a plane as it’s landing, yet for some bizarre reason, so-called authorities can’t seen to figure out his motive. SAN FRANCISCO — The passengers sat stunned as they watched a man walk quickly toward the front of American Airlines Flight 1561 as it was descending toward San Francisco. He was screaming and then began pounding on the cockpit door. “I kept saying to myself: ‘What’s he doing? Does he have a bomb? Is he armed?’” passenger Angelina Marty said. Another shocked passenger, Andrew Wai, thought, “Could this be it? Are we going down?” Within moments Sunday, a flight attendant tackled Rageh Almurisi. Authorities do not...
