Barak Obama is extremely dangerous not only for what he represents but for whom he represents.
Holy SEA COW! That’s quite the video.
On a serious note, the “money for jobs” isn’t just superficial idiocy. A central belief of the socialist left is that the reason people are poor has nothing to do with production, but rather distribution. They have no understanding of “scarcity”, no conception of scale, and think that if they can loot and confiscate enough then everyone can be fully provided for despite not actually contributing anything.
They’ve never learned that the distinctly American phrase, “to MAKE money”, is the key to our great productivity. As a result they see no value in productive behavior, which explains why the more value someone adds to the world, the more they demonize him (and also why, whether politician, spoiled trust-fund hippie, white trash, or urban thug, they possess the unifying trait of going through life without an honest job, demanding that others provide for them).
The media always “blame” conservatives for starting or reigniting culture wars. But it’s the left that starts these wars. They have to start them because social liberalism cannot build a civilization. It can only infect one built on the opposite premises.
For example, who started the culture war over same-sex “marriage”? The left started it by demanding that the multi-thousand year old definition of marriage be changed by judicial fiat, against the will of the vast majority of the population. Yet, the media repeatedly assert that conservatives “ignited” the war by resisting these leftist judicial fiats.
It is the left that started the culture wars, not the right. Pat Buchanan has said some really stupid things in recent years about WWII and the Middle East, but he hit the nail on the head in his 1992 convention speech. And he wasn’t trying to start a culture war. He was notifying conservatives that the left started one in the 1960s and had been at war with us for a quarter of a century, so we needed to fight back.
REDNECK GIRL
Well I ain't never
Been the barbie doll type
No I can't swig that sweet champagne
I'd rather drink beer all night
In a tavern or in a honky tonk
Or on a 4 wheel drive tailgate
I've got posters on my wall of Skynard, Kid and Strait
Some people look down on me
But I don't give a rip
I'll stand barefooted in my own front yard with a baby on my hip
Cause I'm a redneck woman
And I ain't no high class broad
I'm just a product of my raisin'
And I say "hey y'all" and "Yee Haw"
And I keep my Christmas lights on, on my front porch
all year long
And I know all the words to every Charlie Daniels song
So here's to all my sisters out there keepin' it country
Let me get a big "Hell Yeah" from the redneck girls
like me
Hell Yeah
Hell Yeah
Victoria's Secret
Well their stuff's real nice
Oh but I can buy the same damn thing on a Wal*Mart
shelf half price
And still look sexy
Just as sexy
As those models on TV
No I don't need no designer tag to make my man want me
You might think I'm trashy
A little too hard core
But get in my neck of the woods
I'm just the girl next door
Hey I'm redneck woman
And I ain't no high class broad
I'm just a product of my raisin'
And I say "hey y'all" and "Yee Haw"
And I keep my Christmas lights on, on my front porch
all year long
And I know all the words to every Tanya Tucker song
So here's to all my sisters out there keeping it country
Let me get a big "Hell Yeah" from the redneck girls
like me
Hell Yeah
Hell Yeah
I'm redneck woman
And I ain't no high class broad
I'm just a product of my raisin'
And I say "hey y'all" and "Yee Haw"
And I keep my Christmas lights on, on my front porch
all year long
And I know all the words to every Ol' Bocephus song
So here's to all my sisters out there keeping it country
Let me get a big "Hell Yeah" from the redneck girls
like me
Hell Yeah
Hell Yeah
Hell Yeah
Hell Yeah
Hell Yeah
Hell Yeah
I Said Hell Yeah

“In this war, “community organizer” is synonymous with working for a liberal nonprofit organization.”
I’ve been trying to figure out what a community organizer does. Is Jesse Jackson a “community organizer”? I believe he was accused by a San Jose newspaper a few years ago of trying to shake them down for money. I wouldn’t call this the actions of a “nonprofit organization.” What about Al Capone? Was he a community organizer?
No argument with respect to Soros.
I have a slightly different take on the Party.
I remember Henry "Scoop" Jackson, Hubert Humphrey, Harry Truman -- I knew the Democratic Party. The Democratic Party was a friend of America. The Rat Party is no Democratic Party.
The old Rat stalwarts have been waiting for a generation to "bring it all down, man." This is likely the only chance they'll have to do it democratically. This goes way beyond McGovern IMO.
Some old Rat stalwarts used violence, targeted bombing and murders in the 1960s and beyond. They will not go peacefully -- they will certainly stir up riots at a minimum.
