Hope, Change, and PLENTY of good seats still available!
The Obama Balloon is leaking something awful, I guess hot air really does not go that far.
If you think Lisa Murkowski is anything but a RINO…….
Think again! Via Cubachi comes news that Murkowski is nothing more than Charlie Crist in a skirt!
For those who think Murkowski will caucus with republicans, think again. Dana Bash of CNN reports on Twitter that Murkowski said republicans should not count on her to be with them:
My friends, we cannot, and MUST NEVER, trust our republic to the likes of miscreants like Murkowski and Crist!
My radio show goes 1-hour tomorrow night
I will be talking about the looming election, with a couple of treats thrown in. Listen here at 10PM EST tomorrow night
Check out Soldiers Angels – Soldiers Angels Project VALOUR-IT TEAM MARINE
Help those who ahve given so much for America: Soldiers Angels – Soldiers Angels Project VALOUR-IT TEAM MARINE
Time to help our military heroes
It is time for the annual Project Valour-IT blog competition. Cassy is, like me a member of Team Marines, hit the link to donate and help supply wounded vets with voice controlled computers
Project Valour-IT, in memory of SFC William V. Ziegenfuss, helps provide voice-controlled/adaptive laptop computers and other technology to support Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen and Marines recovering from hand wounds and other severe injuries. Technology supplied includes:
Voice-controlled Laptops – Operated by speaking into a microphone or using other adaptive technologies, they allow the wounded to maintain connections with the rest of the world during recovery. Wii Video Game Systems – Whole-body game systems increase motivation and speed recovery when used under the guidance of physical therapists in therapy sessions (donated only to medical facilities). Personal GPS – Handheld GPS devices build self-confidence and independence by compensating for short-term memory loss and organizational challenges related to severe TBI and severe PTSD.
Here are some videos and links to get you motivated to honor and support not only Marines, but all of the branches of service.
Ten reasons to support the Marines
That is, of course, assuming Charlie Crist had any marbles to begin with!
Carolyn Tackett links to more evidence that Charlie Crist is America’s most dishonest, and unbalanced politician!
Meek senior aide: “Crist is losing his marbles”
Well, yeah. No sane person would call one of his political opponents at 4:45 a.m.:
“Governor Crist called me at quarter to 5:00 a.m. Monday morning. I’m just not up and at’em at quarter to 5:00 a.m. to talk politics,” Meek told Greta Van Susteren in an interview Friday night.”. “I think he’s a very desperate campaigner. He sees that he doesn’t have the momentum.”
Later in the day on Monday, Crist and Meek, appeared at the same campaign event in Hollywood, Fl. At the meeting- among local Jewish leaders of the pro-Israel lobbying group, AIPAC, or the American Israel Public Affairs Committee- Crist personally lobbied Meek to leave the 3-way race, and offered him a cross that Crist had received from his family as a gift, The Wall Street Journal first reported.
” I was shocked when he did it,” Meek told the newspaper, ” I told him to keep the cross and that I carry my Christianity in my heart.”
Re-gifting? Tacky, Charlie.
Well, Crist is going to give the state of Florida and the U.S. Senate a gift Tuesday, when Marco Rubio boots him in the arse! Crist has shown himself to be the most hollow politician in America. No substance, no class, no principles, none at all. He is simply a shell of a man infatuated with nothing but his own greed and lust for power and self-aggrandizement! Sorry Charlie, and good riddance to bad rubbish!
Sarah Palin: Those corrupt bastards!
The former governor is right, the media is largely a bunch of sell-out and idealogues. Donald Douglas links the story of an Alaska “news” station, that conspired against candidate Joe Miller. As Douglas points out, the evidence is overwhelming!
The most interesting thing about the denial is that, you know, “it’s just another Breitbart operation … nothing to take seriously.” Of course, in each of the previous scandals Breitbart’s evidence has been clear and incriminating. What’s also been clear is that the Democrat-Media-Industrial-Complex pushes back so hard — with willing accomplices elsewhere in the left’s institutional state structures — that the meme of fakery and fraud is successfully planted, allowing those pimps, bigots, and corruptocrats to get off the hook, ultimately, with minimal consequences. Yet in this case, once again, there’s no doubt the evidence is overwhelming:
The station has denied any conspiracy but Palin is holding nothing back.
Palin is dead on target, this IS exactly the kind of underhanded shenanigans that the American people are FED UP WITH! And, this story will also clearly explain why the media loathes bloggers so much. It is bloggers, more than anyone else that blow the lids off these stories, exposing the corrupt bastards for what they are!

Indonesian Volcano Unleashes Biggest Blast Yet – Fox News
Clouds of gray ash rumbled down the slopes of Indonesia’s most volatile volcano Saturday in its most powerful eruption of a deadly week, prompting soldiers to force reluctant villagers to evacuate amid fears of a larger blast.
On the other side of the archipelago, storms again prevented aid deliveries to increasingly desperate survivors of a tsunami – including a teenage girl with an open chest wound – that killed 413 people in the Mentawai islands. Relief workers found some comfort, however, when the number of missing dropped by half to 163 as searchers discovered more survivors and villagers who had fled to the hills returned home.
The simultaneous catastrophes have severely tested the emergency response network. Indonesia lies in the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” a cluster of fault lines prone to earthquakes and volcanic activity.
Mount Merapi, which sprang back to life early this week, unleashed a terrifying 21-minute eruption early Saturday, followed by more than 350 volcanic tremors and 33 ash bursts, said Surono, chief of the Center for Volcanology and Geological Hazard Mitigation.
The latest spewing of the notoriously unpredictable volcano forced the temporary closure of an airport and claimed another life, bringing the death toll this week to 36.
At least 47,000 people have fled the mountain’s wrath, according to the National Disaster Management Agency. Government camps well away from the base were overflowing with refugees, including most of the 11,000 people who live on the mountain’s fertile slopes. They were told Saturday, with signs the danger level was climbing, that they should expect to stay for three more weeks.
Despite such warnings, many people have returned to their land to check on precious crops and livestock. The new eruption triggered a chaotic pre-dawn exit, killing a 44-year-old woman who was fleeing by motorcycle, said Rusdiyanto, head of disaster management office in the main city of Yogyakarta.
For the first time Saturday, more than 2,000 troops were called in to help keep villagers clear of the mountain. Camouflaged soldiers stood guard in front of ash-covered homes and local television showed one woman who refused evacuation orders being carried away as she screamed in protest.
Still, the villagers may be later allowed to go back for a few hours a day if the volcano appears to be calm, said Djarot Nugroho, head of the Central Java disaster management agency, adding that they must return to the camps immediately if a new alarm is raised.
“Once the sirens go off, no excuse, everyone has to get back to the camps,” he said.
The eruption temporarily forced the closure of the airport in Yogyakarta, 12 miles south of the volcano, because of poor visibility and heavy ash on the south of the runway, said Naelendra, an airport official.
Despite earlier hopes that Merapi’s activity might be waning, scientists warned Saturday the worst may be yet to come.
High-pressure gas appeared to be building up behind a newly formed thick magna dome in the crater, “setting the stage, potentially, for a more explosive eruption,” said Subandrio, who heads the nearby volcanology center. “It’s a bad sign,” he said.
In the tsunami zone, where more than 23,000 people have been displaced, government agencies were forced to pull back boats and helicopters that had been ferrying noodles, sardines and sleeping mats to the most distant corners of the Mentawai islands because of stormy weather and rough seas.

Sophisticated bombs contained in packages sent from Yemen were designed to explode in the air and bring down the cargo planes carrying them, the government confirmed.
Intelligence experts believe the use of the devices, contained in printer cartridges on board two Chicago-bound cargo planes, represents a shift in terrorist tactics to commercial targets.

Astronauts, Space Scientists Call For Global Action To Prevent Asteroid Impact – Washington Examiner
Countries around the world must team up to prevent an asteroid from slamming into Earth, scientists and former astronauts said Friday.
NASA has tracked nearly 7,000 near-Earth objects that are bigger than several feet across. Of those, 1,157 are considered “potentially hazardous asteroids.” “We can’t escape the conclusion that one could happen tomorrow,” former NASA astronaut Thomas D. Jones said.

Man’s Mouth Declared World’s Biggest By Guinness – Orange News
An Angolan man has been recognised as having the world’s widest mouth by the Guinness Book of World Records. Francisco Domingo Joaquim, 20 – aka the Angolan Jaw of Awe – can fit a 330ml can of pop into his mouth – sideways.
He can stretch his mouth more than six-and-a-half inches wide, and recently put his skills to the test at the the Big Mouth competition in Rome.
John Kerry pitches a tantrum
Kerry, like all Democrats, pretends to be a “man of the people”. He, like all Democrats, claims to support the, common working family. Yet, when the people reject the ideology of Kerry and his ilk, well, then it is time to start belittling them. DougPowers , at Michelle’s place, has some recent comments from Kerry.
Could it be that some of the hypnotized hopeful who believed harmonic convergence would be free and that clean air, world peace, free gas and kickass careers had finally arrived in the form of catch-phrases and campaign slogans eventually awakened to the fact that they were duped? Nah, it’s much easier just to blame talk radio for dumbing down America:
With his party braced for defeats in the midterm elections, the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee told the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce that a Republican machine — fueled by talk show hosts such as Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck — has undermined progress and misled the public into believing Democrats created the country’s current economic problems.
[...]
“It’s absurd. We’ve lost our minds,” said a clearly exasperated Kerry. “We’re in a period of know-nothingism in the country, where truth and science and facts don’t weigh in. It’s all short-order, lowest common denominator, cheap-seat politics.”
You stay classy Kerry.
Beware of Panthers when you vote Tuesday
Panthers, as in New Black Panthers, as in racist thugs that is! Michelle reports
Before the Philly New Black Panther Party radicals showed up at a voting booth in 2008 with billy clubs and racial epithets at the ready, my old nemesis Malik Shabazz — the NBPP thug-in-chief — put out a nationwide warning. Remember?
Well, NBPP official Quannell X in Texas says his militant minions will return…to monitor citizen election watchdogs.
Election Law Center says: Strap in.
And bring your cameras.
I plan to have my camera handy when I go vote Tuesday, not that I expect anything to happen here. But, at least I want to share what I see, and hear. I live in a Democratic heavy precinct, and it will be fascinating to see if the turnout is higher, or lower than normal.
Boy, that Donald Douglas really has the hots for Marisa Miller
Hey, she is hot, I admit that, but my friend Donald Douglas is off the charts smitten
A good message to those who share my Libertarian ideals
I have some very strong attachments to many Libertarian ideals. To me, conservatism and libertarianism are very close indeed! Aleister provides, I think, a KEY message every serious Libertarian should heed.
Let me to say that again. Libertarians who live in the real world vote Republican.
There are two reasons for this which are easy to explain:
1. If you’re a Libertarian who votes for Libertarian candidates, you’re wasting your vote. Period.
2. If you’re a Libertarian who votes for Democrats, you’re simply not a Libertarian. It’s impossible to support the ever-growing, gigantic government, nanny state, we-will-tell-you-what’s-good-for-you, agenda of Democrats.
