2010 Elections, Political News

From my hit the other morning. I do disagree that the movement is “fickle.” To wit: Most Say Tea Party Has Better Understanding of Issues than Congress 57% of Likely Voters Describe Democratic Congressional Agenda As Extreme Independent Voters Favor GOP in 2010 Election Tracking In 2010, Conservatives Still Outnumber Moderates, Liberals Election 2010: Senate Balance Of Power Scott Rasmussen and Douglas Schoen: One nation under revolt | Washington Examiner Tea Party’s already won – TheHill.com More States “Competitive” in Terms of Party Identification It’s not “fickle.” It’s discerning, consistent, and mainstream .

And I’m not talking about that heinous Power Point presentation that looks as though it was done by a toddler using Corel Draw. Here’s my slogan for Shakowsky: JAN SCHAKOWSKY: A COMIC SANS KIND OF GIRL I’m talking about repurposing the hallmark of scifi Americana for a cheap partisan attack against conservatives. Duh, everyone knows that the evil Empire wanted to suppress free trade, over-regulate, and control the galaxy, much in the same way that socio-progressive policies believe in heavy government regulation of the private sector and individual mandates that penalize people for not choosing government health care. Shakowsky is a Paplatine sycophant, I suspect she lacks the force sensitivity to even register as a Sith apprentice. Sorry, Schakowsky but as a Star Wars nerd I personally reject your rudimentary knowledge and bastardized galactic analogies. Filed under: Democrats , Lame , Video

I’ve been watching Media Matters fake concern over the Reid-supporting chick punched at a townhall forum this week. Suddenly Eric Boehlert is a defender of women. Except when those women are conservative, because hey, Kelly Owens and Allee Bautsch TOTALLY had it coming, right? Because Media Matters likes to portray itself to its three readers as being objective and high enough to serve as a faux-journalism critique, I expected to find tons on the on-video, cop-witnessed (as per police report) assault of Kelly Owens by the SEIU crowd . So I did a little search in the Media Matters’ archives: What? That bastion of media purity, the calvary to the rightwing media, the Soros-funded “media” outlet didn’t have anything about the assault of conservative Kelly Owens? OK, so I imagine that they’re hurriedly drafting a post now to remedy that glaring oversight, since, afterall, they’re such huge defenders of women all of a sudden. I figured that Media Matters/Eric Boehlert/George Soros would also have written about the severe beating of Allee Bautsch , too, right? That’s ‘No for $200,’ Alex. Oh, wait, sorry, MMfA did mention Bautsch’s name in an attack on Jim Hoft . So, that’s something, right? So why, after all this time, nothing on MMfA on either Owens or Bautsch? Why the silence? Why the double-standard? We’ve had: tea partiers attacked in Florida: -  an Obamacare supporter bite the fingers off a man ; -  SEIU and lefty crowd beating Kenneth Gladney ; – I received threats concerning my children just last week from a leftist and have since involved the police and the cyber crimes division and, along with my station who is involved, am pursuing maximum criminal charges against the perpetrator – leftists threatened Andrew Breitbart in Nevada – leftists spit on people, call Breitbart and conservatives at Right Nation gay slurs – leftists assault a videographer at a public event – a lefty congressman assaults two college kids – the assault of Nathan Tabor and his wife – More lefty assaults , lefty screeching and intimidation , threats of assault , advocating violence , hateful rallies . Meanwhile, the tea parties repudiate any such things . Violence in lieu of discourse is wrong, period. Party, ideology is irrelevant. Why are only the conservatives saying this, though? Maybe Media Matters can do a story on it. Filed under: Civil Rights , Democrats , FAIL , Media , Obamanation , REAL Angry Mobs , Socialists , Video

Classy, that Adam Sharp . Can we find some liberals to do the same for these? From Evan Coyne Maloney : Two things to note: There seem to be an exponentially greater number of people who like to compare Bush/Palin/insert-conservative-here to Hitler as opposed to someone comparing Obama to Hitler by way of socialist policy. I’ve never witnessed non-classical liberals/progressives/socialists police their own in any similar fashion with regards to this particular topic. When in DC covering 8/28 I saw signs comparing Glenn Beck to Hitler. Where is the tracker website for that? It’s interesting how the left creates standards and practices for everyone but them to follow. The irony is that their opposition already has standards which they apply themselves and yet this one group that seeks to act like the moral police to the world cannot be called upon to remedy the above behavior in their own party.

Part of the CL Bryant “Runaway Slave” documentary crew. I interviewed Bryant for PJTV. This gave me goosebumps and the end, when she asks who runs the inner cities where our schools are crumbling, will make you want to pump your arm like a piston.
