Grimes And Liberal Fake Outrage Drive Huge Traffic To My Blog

Yesterday I blogged that Alison Lundergan Grimes had been endorsed by Michelle Obama as the kind of Senate candidate that deserved a “big fat check” because Grimes would help pass Barack Obama’s gun control plans and defend Obamacare along with advancing the rest of his agenda.

A reporter who was at the event (which was primarily for women) revealed this comment heard in the hallway.

In introductory remarks (which I overheard in the lobby, where I was held as the pool reporter for the event), Colorado senator and DSCC chair Michael Bennet said looking back at Democratic gains over the last few cycles, it was "very clear that the way we won them was by running women." [Capital New York]

So the DSCC has decided that women can do better running against men as they continue their efforts to peg the GOP as waging war on women.  Isn’t that a little like the tactic of using human shields when firing mortars?

So what happened as soon as Alison was caught red handed signing up to be a willing recruit in Obama’s army, being identified as an important part of Obama’s plans, cozying up to the most unpopular, progressive, gun grabbing, abortion supporting, economy crashing, job destroying president of the modern era? Here’s what happened.

The liberals ran to their media buddies at places like The Huffington Post, feigning outrage over my blog post in which I criticized Alison’s newly revealed devotion to Obama by suggesting that perhaps she was now the new “Obama Girl”.

Listen to what I said again.  Instead of pressing Grimes to explain or deny her apparent devoted loyalty to the Obama agenda the liberal media, driven by the DSCC no doubt, ran interference for her.  When I got home last night I discovered that my blog post was being linked all over the Internet with fake outrage that I would dare call her a “Girl”.  I didn’t call her a “girl” I likened her to the “Obama Girl”.

Oh, before I forget my manners,  thank you Politico, thank you Huffington Post, thank you ABC, thank you Daily Mail, and all of you shrill and hysterical liberals on Twitter and Facebook for driving so much traffic to my blog.  I doubt that Michelle Obama’s identification of Grimes as one of Obama’s likely anti-gun votes would have been spread as far and wide as it turned out to be if it wasn’t for you.

And while I’m at it, let me also say a word about the republican response to the liberal screech.  Really?  You let the same people who photoshopped Sarah Palin without mercy, who rally in support of the murder by abortion of millions of baby girls, who supported Weiner and Spitzer and Slick Willy despite their sexploits, who never once called for Martin Bashir to apologize for saying someone should ‘defecate’ in Sarah Palin's mouth and who pretend to care about women only when it is politically advantageous, back you down?  Really?  I’m disappointed.  No wonder the party is always on its heels.

Why wasn’t there a relentless push back demanding that Grimes answer the question, “do you or do you not support Obama and his agenda”.  Why wasn’t there a relentless call for her to return any money she got at the feet of the First Lady who said those checks would help pass gun control?  Did she take money under false pretenses?  If so, shouldn't she return it?  And if she keeps the money yet continues to say she’s not onboard with Obama’s gun control policy then isn't it obvious that she can’t be trusted any more than Obama can?

You mean to tell me, GOP, that you’re going to let the liberal media set the tone, drive the story and run interference for Grimes’ and her handshake deals at an Obama-fest without making it the top story of the season?

Haven’t you let Alison stay silent long enough while the echo chamber of her liberal friends beats you to death in the press?

And let’s get one other thing straight.  What does “Obama Girl” mean anyway?  It has come to be a short hand description of a grown woman who has a crush on Obama.  An “Obama Girl” is a grown woman who ignores the facts, and supports Obama because, well, he’s Obama.  It’s not the sexist use of the word “girl” standing alone, it’s the use of a modern description of an “Obama Girl”, an Obama groupie, you know, like the ones who faint and go all GaGa at his events, or smile and politely accept money from people who have been told she is going to be another Obama vote in the Senate.

So before Alison and her army of tweeters pass out from gasping and screeching in phony agony, let me point out one other thing.  My little blog description was taken big time by your over-reaction and fake outrage.  And do you know what that accomplished? 

I can assure you that while your made up “war on women” claim might play well in some other parts of the country, Alison Lundergan Grimes being revealed as Obama’s new groupie is the story which voters in Kentucky care about far more than your phony liberal claims. 

I made my point, the photo I posted was funny, and thanks to you nit wits who spread it far and wide (as I knew you would as soon as I took it down) you have only yourselves to blame for making her the culprit in the spot light that she should be and letting the world see the funny photo that you spread around.

Now, is there a republican out there with the gumption to push back, or are you going to continue to let the media con you into surrendering another big issue?  I mean, you let claims of “racism” shut you down every time you criticized Obama.  

Can’t you see that the dems have just switched to a new fake outrage, the claim that hitting “women” hard in the political arena is the “new taboo”?

Oh, and in case you hadn’t noticed, all of the effort to make women “off limits” is just in time for “Hillary-2016”. 

Geez, where's the conservative media to push back against this tripe paste when you need it?

Health Insurance Tax Will Destroy Small Businesses

Oh the Obamacare thing again.  Geez, when are you conservatives going to stop talking about that?  I mean, for crying out loud, we all have a Constitutional right to health care don't we?  It's right in there with the general welfare thing.  And besides, who gets hurt?  The government is paying for it not us.

 

Haha Ha! Blogger Nails It!

Russia's president Putin wrote an editorial in the New York Times directed at the American People, urging caution in Syria and ending with his observation that we need to stop thinking of ourselves as exceptional.

Blogger David Burge, aka Iowahawk, tweeted his own observation about Putin's op-ed, and nails it.

They Took The Money And Ran

Out of about $1 Billion of YOUR MONEY, taken from you by threat of force, and then spent by earmark for homeowner relief following hurricane Katrina, $700 million has gone missing.  It looks like the government just handed out the cash and the homeowners took the money and ran.

Where did all the money go?

“Your guess is as good as mine,” David Montoya, the inspector general of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, says of $700 million in missing taxpayer money that Louisiana homeowners were given in the wake of Hurricane Katrina to elevate and protect their homes from future storms.

A new report released from the inspector general’s office shows that more than 24,000 homeowners who received grants of up to $30,000 to elevate their homes either misspent or pocketed the money. [Yahoo]

Of course there really is nobody watching the till, or so it seems.  Tens of billions of dollars were lost to open theft and waste in Iraq, yet school children cannot visit the White House because a little tourism costs too much money.

The US gives billions to the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt but can't find the money to build a bridge in over the river between Kentucky and Ohio which would not only improve interstate commerce but create a huge number of jobs and be a boost to the regional economy.

Grandma has to come up with more of her own money to buy medicine but the Obama clan can take lavish vacations one on top of the other.

And even if you think that the $174,000 salary being paid to our Senators and Congressmen might seem high, think how high it is by comparison to how much real work they do.

All this talk about cutting spending and cutting taxes has about as much effect as trying to mow the Kentucky Horse Park with a pair of nail clippers.

But hey, they work so hard for their money and get so much done who could possibly expect our elected officials to have time to keep tabs on BILLIONS of dollars taken from your paycheck, your bank account, your property, your savings, your inventory, your retirement account, your estate, your kid's future?

I mean, give them a break.

Boobs

Governor Beshear told CN2 Pure Politics that Ashely Judd would be a "serious" candidate to challenge Mitch McConnell.  CN2 landed a mention on POLITICO for the story.  Okay, guess what.  Beshear is right.  Would she be a good Senator?  Would she help advance the conservative agenda favored by most Kentuckians?

Would she work hard to defend the Constitution, to preserve our right to keep and bear arms?

Of course the answer to these questions is a solid NO.   But that's not why Beshear is right.  He's right because the people of this country have turned into a bunch of boobs.

Politics is now about attention;  It's about media coverage;  It's about glitz, and glamor and smiles and performances in front of a camera.  Politics has shifted so far away from serious debate of important issues and a close look at ability and dedication to getting things done that anything is possible.

Ashley Judd for Senate?  Good Lord!  Ask her about the right to bear arms and she might tell you that in her world you've spelled "bear" wrong. 

Her idea is more like that of of "bare" arms, and a whole lot more.  (You know that by showing video I run the risk that Assly Juggs will become a more attractive candidate to some of the biggest boobs out there right?  God help us.)

Georgia Legislator One Of The Many Ignorant

I was having lunch the other day with an old friend and we spoke about how sad it was that we are living in an era where people are just plain ignorant.  Is it the fault of our educational system, of parents, of television or of sneaky politicians who have insidiously dumbed us down?  Probably all of the above.

But one recent example of ignorance is one for the books.  A Georgia legislator, Rep. Earnest Smith, has propose making satirical photoshopping illegal after someone placed an image of his head on the body of a porn star.

“No one has a right to make fun of anyone. It’s not a First Amendment right” Smith is reported to have said.  Really? Can anybody be that uninformed about the Constitution they took an oath to defend?

Of course they can, as the Second Amendment debate going on today illustrates.

So, in celebration of Photoshop and free speech here is a doctored image I recently received of Rand Paul testifying in favor of industrial hemp in Frankfort  after I invited someone to try it on this blog.

Funny, cute and protected speech.  I especially like the choom gang logo on his shirt and Tommy Chong and Cheech Marin in the background.  Good job.  And I know Rand will find it funny because he understands the constitution.

Here's What Is Disturbing About Chuck Hagel

The left will tell you that the republicans who oppose Chuck Hagel for Secretary of Defense are really only being obstructionist once again, that Hagel has republican roots and that his service in Viet Nam should be enough to calm any fears over his philosophy regarding the threats facing our nation.  You decide for yourself. 

Hagel thinks terrorists attack because they have lost hope, like those poor Palestinians who have been chained down.

 

And we all certainly know that any service in Viet Nam means that you couldn't possibly be a traitor.

 

 

As my mother always said, you will be judged by the company you keep.
