Something Smells Fishy

A Democrat

Solyndra, Fast and Furious, and the testimony of AF General William Shelton who said the White House pressured him to change his testimony regarding Lightsquared, a communications company whose CEO was a heavy contributer to Obama's campaign, has brought questions about this administration's honesty. The proposed jobs bill and economic stimulus attempts by Obama bring more questions about our president's ability not only to run the country, but to even run a small company. But his shady relationships with people within these companies leads one to question our president's honesty. Gee, it would  have been nice if he was vetted before he being nominated by his party.

Barry has dreams of a world where the air is clean, the grass grows green, and there is total equality among men--so much equality, that the rich will no longer have more than those who have never worked a day in their lives. Cars will run on electricity, homes, for those who still have one, will be heated by something other than coal or oil, (maybe sunlight on sunny days, and wind power on windy days, moon power at night), and our great nation will remain as great as other nations like Greece and Italy, Spain and Saudi Arabia, where Islam, the religion of peace, is the rule of the day. 

And there will be those people who will vote for him in 2012 because they have always voted Democrat (ends in 'rat'), never Republican (ends in 'can') in their lives. They do not follow politics because they don't have the time or interest and believe it doesn't effect their lives. These people, of course, have very little going on between their ears.

Then there will be those who believe the Democratic party is morally superior to the Repubican party. They don't really know the history of both parties and how Lincoln, the first Republican, was elected to put an end to slavery. These same people who think they're better than Republicans morally, do not have a clue that it was the Democrats begat the Jim Crow laws. They don't know much about Dixiecrats and their racist beliefs, and their social club called the KKK. They even believe that Martin Luther King Jr. was a Democrat--he was a Republican. 

The reality is, the White House is having problems because incompetency breeds concomitant problems. When a community organizer/associate professor who has never had the experience of actually holding a job in the free market but has made his living in academia, is elected president of the United States, and is arrogant enough to discount the advice he has been given by his "experts," we have blatant incompetence. But he sounds good. He gives good word. He convinces young people that his dream of a "better America" is their dream--as if the America that his wife had not been proud of, for the first time in her adult life, was a bad country.

Bob Beckel Bites it Big

Bob Beckel irks me. I understand and agree with the concept of fair and balanced reporting in the media, and to be quite honest, it seems that Fox News is the only mainstream media that actually practices fairness. The GOP debate, with that leftist Brian "Even My Chin Leans to the Left Williams," was a libtard farce that the GOP had no business engaging in. MSNBC is not a news agency and Brian Williams is not a journalist. 

But Big Bob Beckel? He's an idiot--an arrogant idiot. To hear him defend Obama's disassociation of our alliance with Israel is totally disgusting. To hear him speak of Obama's performance as if he has no responsibility for the debt, the unemployment, the discontent in this country, is just too much to stomach anymore.


I will continue to watch Fox News--but I will not watch The Five until they replace Beckel with someone who is less arrogant and who actually knows what he is talking about. The next thing I would expect this blowhard to say is that Solyndra is Bush's fault because the financial assistance proposal was given to Bush-but the liberals always fail to mention that the proposal was roundly refused support--they knew way back then that it was a bad investment and "not ready for prime time."

The Annointed One, The DOJ, Islamic Terror, Cha Cha Cha

Barack (Barry) Hussein Obama (Soetoro) is not doing well--his approval rating is a miserable 44%, something akin to his bowling average. The good news for Barack is that the Muslims love him and he has about a 100% approval rating with them, even though they burned our flag on 9-11 in London, and danced in the streets when the towers came down. That should tell you something about Hussein, just like it should tell you something about his choice for Attorney General, Honest Eric Holder. Holder refused to pursue the lawsuit filed against the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), an organization that was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation trial. This was in spite of the enormous amount of evidence to link these terrorists with the Muslim Brotherhood (MB).  It is a fact that CAIR is an arm of the MB, and a fact that Obama is ready to sit down and hold their hand in an Islamic lovefest. It makes sense that Obama wants Holder to keep hands off the organization, even though it has ties to Islamic terrorism throughout the world and is now the apparent arm in charge of Egypt.

But Eric Holder has more crap on his plate than a manure spreader has on its rotor, with Operation Fast and Furious. Darrell Issa, (R-CA) continues to pursue justice in this case, but Holder keeps throwing roadblocks out to slow down the investigation.

Issa is not only Holder's worst nightmare, he probably makes Barry as nervous as a gay guy in Marine Corps bootcamp who was asked and told. Issa will not say that this case goes all the way to the White House, but he noted how people involved with it are being moved around or fired from the ATF. My take is that Obama either knew about Operation Fast and Furious, or his management skills suck, or both. To believe that Holder didn't know is simply naiive--he has to be investigated closely, and if involved, prosecuted and the justice he refuses to enact, be done to him.

The country is hurting and Obama isn't assuaging the pain--his speech was a no name brand band aid on a gaping wound. He wants to throw more money at the problem and still hasn't learned anything about economics. He has the audacity to demand we pass this bill without discussing or reading it--absolute smugness.

Questions remain unanswered: what did Obama have to do with Solyndra? Fast and Furious? The Muslim Brotherhood? Why is he so anti-Israel, is it because he really is a Muslim or just sympathetic to their 'cause'? What does he really think of Rev. Jeremiah Wright's beliefs about America and the Jews? Who funded his education at Harvard and Columbia, and what were his grades? What were some of the papers about that he wrote as his theses? 

This is the man who promised transparency--maybe he didn't mean his or his administration's.

Paul Robin Krugman is a Coward Sissy Boy Communist Butt Munch: That's Why Liberals Love Him

I always feel sad on 9-11; I worked with families who lost loved ones and worked with victims who lost a piece of their lives. Unlike many people, I do not see 9-11 as a day of reflection, a day of understanding and forgiveness, a day of trying to comprehend why this happened to us--I'm just not built that way. 

No, I see 9-11 as a day of remembering who did this to us. I see it as a day of commitment and a solemn promise to never allow this to happen again by spreading the word and enlightening others about who our enemies are, and not caring about b.s. political correctness.

Ties his tie like in junior high

Some people actually blame the United States for what happened on that sunny Tuesday, ten years ago. These are the same people who would, if captured by an enemy, give their captors information about fellow prisoners, just to curry favors and be spared. I find Paul "I sleep with a nightlight" Krugman to fit this category of slimeball coward and traitor. I also find him to be a crummy economist, Nobel Prize aside, and an even worse writer.



Krugman, a columnist for the New York Times (you know, the anti-American socialist rag), went on his predictable anti-patriotic rant on the 10th anniversary of 9-11 in which he labeled G.W. Bush, Rudy Giuliani, and Bernie Kerik as "fake heroes." He stated on his "Conscience of a Liberal" blog: "What happened after 9/11--and I think even people on the right know this, whether they admit it or not--was deeply shameful. Fake heroes like Bernie Kerik, Rudy Giuliani, and yes, George W. Bush raced to cash in on the horror. And then the attack was used to justify an unrelated war the neocons wanted to fight, for all the wrong reasons."

Of course if GW Bush, Rudy Giuliani, and Bernie Kerik did not go to the scene of the mass murder, committed in the name of Islam, Krugman would be calling them cowards, saying they failed to do what was expected of them. This is the tactic liberals like Paul Robin Krugman use against conservatives--Krugman is like a woman whose man is never right about anything. I  imagine he pees sitting down while reading "Town and Country." I can see him in high school as a pimply-faced kid who always had his lunch money taken away and who went and told the teacher on the girl that took it.

So why did Krugman write such repugnant crap in his blog? It seems to me, he was using 9-11 as a platform to advance his hatred of anyone better than him, anyone with real courage, and the guts to make decisions that might be wrong, but that had to be made.The only people who never make mistakes are those who don't do anything to make them. People like Krugman, for example.

If you disagree with what I've said here, you just might be a liberal.

If you are interested in terrorism and suspense, I have provided 2 links (below) for a hard copy (soft cover) edition and an eBook edition of my latest novel, Jihad Joe.  It's a story about Zed Nill, a New York based reporter, taken hostage by Islamic terrorists.  He must escape, or be beheaded the following day . . . the clock is ticking.

The Real Memorial Day for Me

I've been spending the day watching the memorial events on TV of 9-11. It'ssurreal, to use a word that has been used dozens of times already today. I just watched the piece on the AP photographer, Richard Drew, who shot the picture of "The Falling Man." It was so sad, to think of the choice that it was better to jump to one's death, than to stay in the building. I can only begin to imagine the horror a person must feel in those seconds when your life is about to end.

On Twitter this morning, there was a tweet by US Reality Check, an obviously liberal media site, that said that the New York GOP was exploiting the 9-11 anniversary by sending Islamophic mailer to NY voters in NY special election today. I tweeted them back saying that there is no such condition as Islamophobia--it's a term invented by CAIR, (the Council on American and Islamic Relations--an unindicted co-conspirator of the Holy Land Foundation trials), and the term is used to discourage free discourse about Islam and its direct relationship to terrorism. It's interesting that US Reality Check mentioned this GOP mailer, but never mentioned the Eric Holder refusal to indict CAIR when he had the chance most recently--he decided not to pursue it-perhaps he had his hands full with Operation Fast and Furious.

But I don't want to rant today. I want to remember those people, all 2977 of them, who died ten years ago today. I want to remember who did this to our country and I do not want to forgive them.

The NFL just played Taps and a man who looks a bit like Keith Olberman, is singing the National Anthem--imagine Olberman actually singing the National Anthem, I can't--but this guy just sang his heart out. It almost brings me to tears; it was so real, so heartfelt. 

Have a peaceful day, dear readers.

If Liberals Had Their Way

Imagine the future where liberals totally get their way. All the laws Obama is calling for, all the changes in the way we live, imagine he gets them, carte blanche.

Vroooooooooooooooom

Picture the FBI chasing a suspect--a car chase, just like in the movies--except the FBI is equipped with environmentally friendly, green cars, Chevy Volts. These hybrid-electric cars were touted by our president as the wave of the future. Obama even had GM, the company that builds the Volt, bailed out, bought and paid for by the federal government. They now own the company.

"Can you still see 'em back there?"

Now imagine that the car chase along an interstate highway that stretches for miles.The Feds are trying desperately to chase down a gas-driven car; a muscle car like a Mustang, and the Mustang is outrunning the FBI to the point that the feds look like they're standing still. This is because the Volt, a car costing about $40,000, can do about 100 mph downhill while the Mustang GT 5.0 liter V8 with dual overhead cam with its 412 horses under the hood, can still get a speeding ticket for every mph they can do above 100.Got the picture? Are you laughing yet?


But the FBI agents and the President of the United States of America, can laugh at the thugs in the Mustang, because while the Mustang GT can get 26 miles per gallon on the highway, the Volt can get a staggering 93 miles per gallon under optimal conditions. If the Mustang crew stays on the highway until they run out of gas (assuming they don't stop for a fill-up), the FBI will catch them, if these thugs will be patient enough to wait the several hours it will take to be overtaken.

9-11 Memories

I was working as a psychotherapist in 2001 at a small clinic in Brooklyn, New York, about 3 miles from Ground Zero. Below is my memory of that day, and how I think about the Islamic terror attack on 9-11. 

8:40 AM--I arrived early, went into the office, and was about to start the session with Roxanne, the angriest person I've ever known. The office we were using was on the main floor because she couldn't climb stairs due to an accident she had years before--this was the root of her anger. The clinic receptionist desk was just outside my office door and the radio was on softly--I wouldn't be able to hear it once I closed the door to start session, but I could hear it now. The word was, a plane had struck one of the Twin Towers. The size of the plane was not yet known, and I suspected that it was a small private plane--I'm not sure why, but most of the psychotherapists thought the same thing.

9:00 AM--The door closed, Roxanne had her session where she complained about everything from her physical condition to "the System" that paid for her multiple medications (possibly 20 different kinds of psychotropics costing the taxpayers thousands of dollars each month just for meds). I heard these complaints hundreds of times, literally, listening attentively while I was concerned more about her anger rather than its target. While this was going on, the Twin Tower accident had a piece of my attention and it bothered me that I couldn't hear more of the events of the morning of September 11th, 2001.

9:45 AM--session is over and I learn from another therapist that a second plane struck the second tower. Now I was certain that it was terrorism. I knew we were at war, but I had to walk several blocks from the clinic to see my next client as she was unable to ambulate due to her physical limitations. When I got to her home, she had the TV on and was watching the events unfolding. I saw the towers pouring smoke and I told my client that it would be fine if we didn't really have a session and instead watch the scene on TV--she shut it off and said that she would watch it later--I was upset but couldn't say so.


10:55 AM--I arrive back at the clinic and Nama, a therapist friend, is standing in front of the entrance crying. I ask her why and she simply said, "The towers are down." I didn't believe what I heard and she told me that both towers came down from the planes. I knew we were at war.  Everything changed for the country that day; everything changed for me.


Today I've been watching Fox News and they have been interviewing people who were involved with the attack. There was the pilot of President Bush's aircraft, there were survivors, police, firemen, who lived through the mortal danger of that day.


Chris Christie of New Jersey spoke about the over 700 New Jersians who died in the World Trade Center. He spoke at Liberty State Park and said he hoped it would be a place where the families of those who were "lost" on 9-11. There is a wall with the names of the victims of that day. Christie said that if we could give a moment of silence for each person who died that day, we would be silent until Monday, at 2 PM (today is Saturday around Noon). That is a tremendous loss, he reminded us.

Duh-Dumm

But, on MSNBC they spoke about how the 9-11 plot could have been prevented if the FBI and other agencies had better communication. Chris Matthews, spoke with a former governer of Illinois, Thompson, in Shanksville, PA, about this blame, and Matthews feels that we are getting better at reading the "chatter" now--he would probably credit Obama for that, but that's just my take on it. Matthews also credits NYC Mayor Bloomberg as being a fabulous politician, never mentioning the controversy about how the mayor refuses to allow first responders and clergy to attend the 9-11 memorial services.


It's eye-opening to flip from Fox to MSNBC. Fox is focused on what happened on September 11, 2001, how it affected those who lived through it, how it affected families who lost a loved one, while MSNBC is focused on what could have been done better by those in charge that day. They step on  their own feet talking politics over every issue in the media.

What I saw was Conservative reporting about that cowardly attack on our soil versus the Liberals playing the blame game. Fox actually showed both sides of a political issue--they even have liberal Bob Beckel on their weekday daily show called The Five, and super liberal, Alan Combs, who is frequently going up against Hannity, for example, but the liberal mainstream media never does this. 

The GOP debate was a good example of the leftist media cannot report as true journalists. Everything they asked was an editorial on their personal beliefs, and that is not reporting, that is opining, and has no business being called journalism. As I've said before, the left appears to be more like the Democratic campaign committee than an actual media outlet--and this is why they're afraid of Fox. 

I am proud of the way this country handled 9-11. I am not proud of how the left has made this horrible act something that resulted from our foreign policies. I am not proud of how the Mayor of New York City has refused to have our first responders and clergy at the memorial service. At the Shanksville, PA memorial, Rev. Coughlan presided and gave the people comfort. Bloomberg refuses this on his misguided interpretation of the Constitution regarding "separation of church and state," not understanding that it is about the notion of disallowing the country to have a state religion, but not disallowing religion to be practiced. But what can you expect of this mayor--he believes we should allow a mosque to overlook the memorial fountains of Ground Zero. This man is totally insensitive to the needs of others.

I am not proud of how of how Homeland Security has bowed to Political Correctness, and thus, bowed to our enemies, in their sham efforts to keep us safe. Hopefully, this will change when we have a new president next year.

I am proud of the United States of America. It is, and always will be the best country on earth. But it seems that memorials are designed to be the direct opposite of what the term implies--something designed so that we can forget the horrors of that day, done to us by our enemy, and we must remember who they are, define them, and overcome their evil. We cannot pretend to not know who they are.

MoreOn the 9-11 Speech--Just My Opinion

I have received several emails from my liberal friends who think Obama's job speech was a great speech. I don't fully disagree with that--I agree that it was a speech; because it sure as hell wasn't a plan like he claimed it would be just before going to Martha's Exclusive Vineyard for the Rich and Socialist. The speech mentioned that we had to "pass this job plan" fully 18 times. Why doesn't he just whine instead of beg?

Unemployment benefits for 2 years? That should take away all incentives to find a job and create a nation of dependent robots. Employers will get $6 thousand to hire someone who has been out of work at least 6 months--that should encourage people to stay out of work for a while, say like 6 months or so. Billions for teachers, billions for schools, no surprises. A slam dunk speech? I don't think so.

The wonders of Photoshop

When asked about Obama's speech, Nancy Pelosi compared it to hitting a home run, bowling 10 strikes, running a touchdown, a hole in one, but she neglected to mention synchronized swimming, according to Bob Beckel, from Fox's "The Five," beach volleyball, darts, and pole vaulting. (Speaking of poles, Obama's pole wouldn't get him over a wad of gum.

I don't agree with Pelosi's--what I saw was the same old, same old; the yadda yadda of political bs, perpetrated on us by the very person whose aspirations is to run the earth, divide the wealth by giving our hard earned money to the unemployed, the never employed welfare recipients, and do it by taxing us until there will be a tax on our taxed money. Of course, in a way, there already is, when you look at the interest tax--we work, we earn money, we invest it, and anything we make on it gets taxed again. Liberal idea, eh.

The worst thing about this speech was how Obama presented it as all or nothing. Republicans had no voice, as far as Obama, the ruler, is concerned.The fact is, everything he has tried in the past, has failed to reap positive results. Keynsian economics may work on paper, but it doesn't work in the real world. Obama still can't let it go, still can't admit that his stimulating the economy only makes his friends rich, but it doesn't create jobs.
