Your Race Pimping Maggot of the Day

Jim Clyburn of South Carolina attacks Mitt Romney in the most deplorable fashion. I have issues with Mitt Romney, and certainly would prefer someone else as the GOP nominee, but Romney is a good man, and does not deserve such attacks. What a bottom feeder Clyburn is! H/T Gateway Pundit

When you can’t run on your failed policies this is what you resort to.

Democratic House Leader Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) told Al Sharpton yesterday that Mitt Romney is reminescent of the racists who kept Rosa Parks in the back of the bus.

Of course, Clyburn has nothing to back up this awful smear but it doesn’t matter. He’s a democrat.

About those “non-existent” death panels………….

Bunkerville, who is now on our blogroll has audio of Mark Levin talking to a neurosurgeon about this issue. CHILLING!

In one of the most chilling phone calls that Mark has ever had, last night was something else. A Neurosurgeon had just attended a meeting with Government representatives. They let the group of Neurosurgeons know what they were in for. After age 70, no Neurosurgery will be the effect of the new rules coming down. People are no longer called people. We are now called Units. Comfort care is what we get. All to de-humanize us.I was hoping someone had snagged this, and indeed someone did.

Comfort care? In other words, we will fluff your pillow and let you die if you are over 70 and need neurosurgical care. If this is true, then, well, I wonder what other measures for who gets care and who gets “comforted” will be applied to Americans, er units. of course, as Western Hero points out, some of us can “buy” our way out of ObamaCare I guess supporting the emperor can really save you life huh?

Michael Barone asks…

If Obamacare is so great, why do so many people want to get out from under it?

He goes on to make some excellent points about how passing a law and then selling exemptions to it is a fundamental violation of the Rule of Law. (Yes, I said sell. Organizations don’t give candidates and political parties campaign contributions just for the fun of it.)

Of course, for those who will shake their heads and say that there is no way our government would allow such barbarity, consider that our government heavily subsidizes Planned Parenthood, which makes a LOT of money by killing the inconvenient

(Life News) — Catherine Adair, a former Planned Parenthood staffer in Boston, has written a new column in the Washington Examiner about her experience and says the abortion business is really concerned about one thing: abortion.

Adair has begun to speak out recently about her experiences and, previously, credited Abby Johnson leaving her post as the director of a Texas-based Planned Parenthood abortion facility with inspiring her to share her own story of getting out of the abortion industry. [...]

“My time there was not spent providing prenatal care to pregnant women, providing counseling or basic health care services or educating women about reproductive health. Instead, I spent my days urging women to terminate their pregnancies. My superiors constantly reminded me of our abortion-centered business model: abortions first, everything else came second,” she writes. “I began to recognize their emphasis on performing abortions each time a woman would express concern or have second thoughts about having an abortion. When I notified management, though, they told me not to worry and encourage her decision to move ahead with the procedure.”

This is what ALWAYS happens when we subjugate individual liberties for the common good. Our Founders formed a nation based on individual rights. Natural rights Franklin called them, Rights that are part of our natural condition. Rights that no government can take away. George Mason, and Thomas Jefferson wrote of these rights, chief among them were LIFE, LIBERTY, and the PURSUIT of HAPPINESS!

Marx, and his followers, and you are right to count Obama, Pelosi, Reid, Waxman and other Liberal politicians among them, do not believe as our Founders did. They believe the individual has certain rights, but these rights are conditional. They are conditional as long as the government, acting in the name of the common good, allow these rights to remain.

For the Marxist, there is no higher power than government, and all rights come from government. And the fact is, what government “gives” be it the right to speak, assemble, own firearms, or the “right” to health care, the same government can restrict, limit, or also take away entirely.

God help us.

One of the great lies the Left spreads

Is that unless we relent to higher taxes, which vermin like Nancy Pelosi, call “increased revenue” teachers will all be fired, kids will starve, water and air will be polluted, and the poor will suffer! Not so fast says Lance Burri

according to Speaker Pelosi:

“…if you refuse … to take one red cent from the wealthiest people in our country and the price we have to pay is the diminished defense and the diminished strength of our country, I think that something is [wrong] here.”

Say, Madame Speaker, if paying for national defense is suddenly in danger, how about we just stop subsidizing businesses with failing business models?

Or, y’know, we should just stop subsidizing businesses. Because identifying the ones with “failing business models” requires somebody in an office somewhere to make a subjective decision about those business models, and, well, y’know. Connections.

Note what Pelosi says “if you refuse … to take one red cent from the wealthiest people in our country“ as of the wealthy pay nothing at all. Basically the left have nothing to offer America, nothing but class warfare, divisive language, lies, and the continued wasting of our tax dollars, and of course, the continuing spiral into Marxism.

Too bad we do not have Congressmen like Lance Burri, and fewer like Pelosi. Congressmen that realize that our tax dollars should never be thrown into failing companies because it might help Obama get re-elected. The fact is, if Pelosi were honest, she would have said “If Democrats are not willing to stop pissing away American’s tax dollars on far left ventures that always fail, then they are not fit to serve in government!”

This is the best GOP candidate?

Well, the self-appointed Czar of the GOP, Ann Coulter is infatuated with Mitt ” I still LOVE Romneycare” Romney

NRO’s Katrina Trinko reports:

“You have seen a lot of candidates look at their biggest vulnerability, call it a mistake, and ask for forgiveness,” Romney continued. “In my case that wouldn’t be honest.”

He affirmed that he believes the health-care program was the “right thing” for Massachusetts then, although he conceded that it hasn’t “worked perfectly.”

“If it hurts me politically, it’s a consequence of the truth,” Romney added. “I am not going to walk away from that. It’s right for states to come up with their own solutions. I doubt other people are going try and follow the one we put together. Maybe learn from our experience. Maybe come up with something better. But the wrong course is to have the federal government impose its will on the entire nation.”

So, it is right for a State to FORCE its citizens to buy a product,but not the nation? OK Mitt, if that is your take, I applaud you sticking with it. It is refreshing to see you STICKING to a position for a change. As for me, and most Conservatives, it is wrong for a state or the federal government to do it!

UPDATE! Hot Air has this from the man who, well, KNOWS about Romneycare

Well, Jonathan Gruber would know, wouldn’t he?  After all, he advised both Mitt Romney and Barack Obama on health-care reform.  In an interview yesterday with Capital New York, Gruber vented his frustration with Romney, claiming that he’s lying about the differences between RomneyCare and ObamaCare:

He credited Mitt Romney for not totally disavowing the Massachusetts bill during his presidential campaign, but said Romney’s attempt to distinguish between Obama’s bill and his own is disingenuous.

“The problem is there is no way to say that,” Gruber said. “Because they’re the same [expletive] bill. He just can’t have his cake and eat it too. Basically, you know, it’s the same bill. He can try to draw distinctions and stuff, but he’s just lying. The only big difference is he didn’t have to pay for his. Because the federal government paid for it. Where at the federal level, we have to pay for it, so we have to raise taxes.”

Not that Gruber is much happier with Newt Gingrich, either.  He claims that Gingrich backed the same kind of system in the past, as did the Heritage Foundation, only to abandon it for political reasons:

Gruber said Republicans were actually less opposed to the mandate, which is going to be under scrutiny by the court, than they were to other provisions of the health care bill, given that the mandate was an essentially conservative idea that had currency with conservative intellectuals in the early 1990s. I asked about the difference between this plan and the kind that was espoused by former House speaker Newt Gingrich back then (and, briefly, in May of this year).

“Zero difference,” he said. “This is, to my mind, the most blatantly obvious case of politics trumping policy I’ve ever seen in my life. Because this is an idea, that four or five years ago, Republicans were touting. A guy from the Heritage Foundation spoke at the bill signing in Massachusetts about how good this bill was.”

Well, Mitt, at least you van say that Newt is as bad as you are on this.

Let me ask again, THIS is the best the GOP can do? I think not!

Another “Your Head Might Just Explode” Post

Trust me, this one will make you scream

They pledged to support and defend the Constitution, but the office of North Carolina Sen. Richard Burr says more than 100,000 U.S. military veterans may be being improperly denied one of the most fundamental rights they swore to protect.

Military veterans whose Veterans Affairs benefits are managed on their behalf by appointed fiduciary trustees are deemed “mentally defective” and reported to the FBI’s National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), a computerized database which prohibits them from purchasing firearms.

Sen. Burr is the ranking Republican member of the Senate Committee on Veteran’s Affairs. His office told The Daily Caller that around 114,000 veterans have been reported to the NICS and are unable to purchase firearms.

Under the Brady Handgun Violence Prevention Act, any person determined by a government authority to lack the mental capacity to manage his or her own affairs is subject to being prohibited from buying a gun.

The VA’s review process for assigning a fiduciary, however, determines veterans’ ability to manage their finances — not whether they are a danger to themselves or others. the VA assigns fiduciaries to handle disability compensation, pensions, survivors’ compensation and other VA government payments veterans’ behalf.

Sen. Burr, a Republican from North Carolina has joined with Democrat Sen. Jim Webb of Virginia to introduce the Veterans Second Amendment Protection Act, which would require a judicial authority to determine whether VA beneficiaries pose a danger to themselves or others before they can be added to the FBI’s NICS database.

“As a matter of fairness, a veteran should be permitted to purchase a firearm under the same conditions as every other American,” said Sen. Webb. “This bipartisan bill ensures consistent guidelines are used for reporting citizens to the FBI, and that no veteran is needlessly stripped of their Second Amendment rights.”

Some facts to keep in mind about The Rick Perry/Crony Capitalist attacks

Michele Bachman, who is losing all the respect I had for her quickly, accused Rick Perry of selling out to Merck, an evil drug company by “forcing” little girls to be vaccinated against their, and their parent’s will. I will get to my thoughts in a bit, but first, Ace has a great post that raises some interesting points about this attack on Perry.

Via Hot Air, some of that there crony capitalism that I’ve been talkin’ about.

Perry’s gubernatorial campaign, for example, received nearly $30,000 from the drugmaker since 2000, most of it prior to his decision in 2007 to order young girls to obtain Merck’s vaccine against the human papillomavirus, or HPV.

Actually, it was $28,500 I’ve read elsewhere, the “bulk” of which came before the 2007 decision, but no one defines what “the bulk” is. Why don’t they include the actual figure, since they have all the numbers in hand?

Why, it’s almost as if they’re being intentionally vague and rounding up wherever possible. Note that happens again, here:

Merck has also given more than $355,000 in donations to the Republican Governors Association since 2006, which was the year that Perry began to play a prominent role in the Washington-based group, according to data from the Center for Responsive Politics.

Ah-he-hem, and that figure is “since 2006,” that is, until the present day, and Perry’s EO was retracted long, long ago (it never went into effect), so why does Merck continue donating? And, further, why does the media not give us the actual figures again, but instead resort to this helpfully-vague dating terminology (“since 2006″)?

The RGA, by the way, supports all Republican gubernatorial candidates, so Rick Perry’s “piece” of that sweet sweet Crony Capitalism pie is about, what, one 25th of that figure?

If you think Perry was bought that’s fine, but I seem to remember a lot of allegations that Dick Cheney started the War in Iraq “to increase his Halliburton stock value,” and to “help his friends at Halliburton,” and I remember these allegations being dismissed with a laugh, as there was no actual evidence of any improper influence or compromised decision-making.

Frankly, I thought the accusation Bachman made was, or should have been, beneath her. There is no real proof, as Ace pointed out, and I fail to understand what she is trying to do. Is she TRYING to give the Democrats ammunition should Perry be the nominee? Because you know they will make fodder of her comments.

Now, to the HPV vaccine issue. Perry was WRONG to do what he did. I opposed it then, and now. Perry, I think to his credit, has said it was wrong, and he should have handled it differently. OK, I can accept that, and one reason I can accept it is that I have lived in Texas the entire time Perry has been governor. This is also why I find accusations that he is a”big government” laughable. He has, almost always, come down on the side of LESS government. Has he been perfect? Of course not. Have I approved of every move he has made? Hell no! But, then again, neither has any other politician.

Now, one final point. Apparently Bachman, and Rick Santorum need to be educated on what the words OPT OUT mean. You see the fact is no child was forced to get this vaccine, no parents were forced into signing away parental rights either. They had a choice NOT TO HAVE THEIR CHILD VACCINATED! Get the facts straight! Bachman and Santorum keep jumping on this with both feet, and they keep doing so by lying about the executive order being a mandate. It was not!

Perry has things in his record that deserve questioning, and I think they should be looked into. But, again, there ought to be no place for using false, or at the very least misleading information. These are tactics that MSNBS uses, and Conservatives ARE BETTER THAN THAT!

I am not the only one fired up over this. At American Thinker, Russ Vaughn

I’m stunned at the stupidity of two people I previously admired. Tonight, two supposed Republican leaders handed the Democrat Party oppo videos that will no doubt be used ad nauseum when Rick Perry becomes the Republican candidate. Michele Bachmann and Rick Santorum, two wannabees who have no chance of winning the Republican nomination demonstrated why they aren’t even close to being presidential material.

Their emotion-driven attacks on Perry will most certainly come back to haunt the Republican Party as it seeks to rid us of Obamanation. Playing right into Wolf Blitzer’s hands, Bachmann and Santorum let themselves be manipulated into vicious, emotional attacks on Perry on an issue where he had already admitted he was wrong. He manfully stood there before them and the nation and admitted his mistake and these two lacked the professional grace to back off and let the issue rest.  More than anything else they resembled a pair of rabid MSNBC loonies.

Sensing the blood Blitzer had chummed into the water, both continued to attack and bloody not just Perry, but the Republican Party, conservatives as a whole and the Tea Party, selfishly weakening our chances of victory in 2012. What self-centered, mean-spirited short-sightedness was demonstrated by both. Bachmann in particular seemed determined to bloody Perry, our apparent front runner, with her motherly appeals to emotion, repeatedly using the phrase “little girls.” Notice that the more circumspect and wiser debate participants didn’t partake of this ill-informed feeding frenzy.

Like I already said, I think Santorum, and Bachman are way out of bounds and only helping the Democrats!

Rush echoes my sentiments, that this is helping The Dems

Surprise surprise! Obama taps professor to lead economic team

And not just ANY old professor either. Oh no, Obama grabbed a Leftist! Shocking I know

As President Obama prepares his jobs plan speech, he’s also filling out his economics team, preparing to nominate Princeton University’s Alan Krueger to be chairman of the White House Council of Economic Advisers.

Why not pick someone who has actually done something in the real world? Why do I even ask? This graph shows how much Obama values actual experience.

Call Obama’s bluff? YES!

Via Randy. A tremendous piece by Charles Krauthammer exposing Obama’s sudden infatuation with cutting spending as nothing but  BS

President Obama is demanding a big long-term budget deal. He won’t sign anything less, he warns, asking, “If not now, when?”

How about last December, when he ignored his own debt commission’s recommendations? How about February, when he presented a budget that increases debt by $10 trillion over the next decade? How about April, when he sought a debt-ceiling increase with zero debt reduction attached?

All of a sudden he’s a born-again budget balancer prepared to bravely take on his own party by making deep cuts in entitlements. Really? Name one. He’s been saying forever that he’s prepared to discuss, engage, converse about entitlement cuts. But never once has he publicly proposed a single structural change to any entitlement.

Obama is hoping, of course, that the American people will forget his past spending orgies. He is hoping that we will be stupid enough to buy his current talk of a “balanced” approach to cutting the debt. Balanced, of course meaning more tax hikes, which Obama and the Dems now call revenues, and meaningless spending cuts.

Hasn’t the White House leaked that he’s prepared to raise the Medicare age or change the cost-of-living calculation?

Anonymous talk is cheap. Leaks are designed to manipulate. Offers are floated and disappear.

Say it, Mr. President. Give us one single structural change in entitlements. In public

Fat chance that will ever happen. Our president is playing politics rather than leading. He is trying to put the Republicans in a box. If they stand up and say Hell No to new taxes, the President can blame them when the debt ceiling expires. If they go along with tax hikes, and the “balanced” approach, they will anger the people who voted them into office, and when those tax hikes hurt the economy, Obama can say the GOP is to blame because they did not vote to “tax the wealthiest” Americans enough.

Krauthammer lays out the plan to call the President on his bluff, and I think it is solid. He calls for the House to pass a short-term debt-ceiling hike $500 billion containing $500 billion in budget cuts. That avoids the “Armageddon” the president insists will happen if a deal is not reached by August 2.He also calls for an urgent negotiations on the tax loopholes he is whining about every five seconds. As I have said before, end those loopholes, and also lower the top tax rate.

Krauthammer suggests a rate of 23%. In other words make Obama put his money where his mouth is. Let America see him for what he is, and at the same time, let America see who is leading and trying to solve our debt problem.
