SO Foreclosure Phil Gramm says it’s a mental recession and we are a nation of whiners…is that better than bitter?…..Let’s look at our proud American heritage of whining…

American colonists whined about taxation without representation and then gave a tea party in Boston Harbor.

American colonists whined about the tyranny of King George (sound familiar?) and then started the Revolution.

Black Americans whined about being beaten, murdered and generally abuse as slaves and we got our civil war.

Women whined about no voice in government and got the right to vote.

Hawaiians whined about 2500 plus deaths at Pearl Harbor and FDR declared war.

Americans whined about the USSR being ahead of us in the space race and we landed on the moon.

Keep up the good whining all you patriots…it’s what our nation is built on!

and reaction from the mccain camp is what?

Ten Campaign Fiascos In One Week

This is the week that should have effectively ended John McCain’s efforts to become the next president of the United States. But you wouldn’t know it if you watched any of the mainstream media outlets or followed political reporting in the major newspapers……But let’s unpack McCain’s week in a little more detail. …..McCain unambiguously called Social Security “an absolute disgrace…………….McCain’s top economic policy adviser calls Americans a bunch of “whiners” for being worried about the slumping economy……………..Iraqi leaders call for a timetable for U.S. withdrawal, McCain gets caught in a bizarre denial and flip flop…………..McCain’s economic plan to cut the deficit has no details and is simply not believable………..McCain’s deficit plan includes bringing the troops home represents a major Iraq flip-flop……..McCain campaign misled about economists support….McCain makes a joke about killing Iranians……..McCain denies, flatly, that he ever said that he is not an expert in economics……McCain distorts his record on veterans benefits in response to a question from Vietnam Veteran, who then proceeds to call McCain out on it………McCain demonstrates he knows nothing about Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Notice how thee Doom and Gloom leaves out the good news and goes straight to whining:

Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki welcomed Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan for an official visit Thursday, the first Turkish leader to visit Iraq in nearly 20 years. Turkey has expressed frustration over Iraq’s perceived reluctance or inability to hunt Kurdish rebels who conduct attacks on Turkish targets from bases in northern Iraq-Urinal/PMS

Now for the full story:

The Anatolia report said the two leaders were expected to sign an agreement aimed at developing bilateral ties and later Erdogan was to meet other Iraqi leaders, including President Jalal Talabani. “I assure that the Turkish government will stand beside you and will support you,” said Erdogan at a joint news conference with Iraqi premier Nuri al-Maliki after the two had met in Baghdad’s heavily-fortified Green Zone.

You see the difference here, which story is purposefully antagonizing the story line between these two countries and which one shows the fact that they are overcoming their problems and developing a relationship for the future.

It’s almost like the candy as-s liberals at the AJC/DNC would like to see Turkey and Iraq trade artillery fire with each other instead of oil and food, doesn’t it?

On the same note:

On a visit to Washington, British Defense Minister Des Browne said Iraq is heading in the right direction in the fight against militants, but he predicted it will take longer to achieve success in Afghanistan, where coalition troops are fighting a resurgent Taliban.-Urinal/PMS

And who’s fault is this, do the libs want us to attack Pakistan, where the pus-sy Taliban go to hide after being slaughtered by NATO in Afghanistan?

And look at thee Doom and Gloom pumping up the tin pot dictator into the second coming of the Waffen SS:

Iranian state television portrayed the missiles, fired Wednesday and again overnight, as a demonstration of the country’s ability to defend itself. The weapons included missiles launched from naval ships in the Persian Gulf, along with torpedoes and surface-to-surface missiles, the broadcast said.-Urinal/PMS

Aahhh, yes, propaganda that thee AJC/DNC doesn’t have to doctor up.

War mongering, Urinal?

~~~~~

If you want to desert from the U.S. military, you will soon have to find a different refuge than Canada. Ottawa’s government has decided to send American deserters back to the U.S. for possible court martial and dishonorable discharge, and Americans should be grateful.

~~~~~

Everyone knows it will take the hardest of hard power to remove the oppressors in Zimbabwe, Burma, Sudan and other godforsaken places where the bad guys have the guns and use them. Indeed, as the Zimbabwean opposition leader suggested (before quickly retracting) from his hideout in the Dutch embassy — Europe specializes in providing haven for those fleeing the evil that Europe does nothing about — the only solution is foreign intervention.

And who’s going to intervene? The only country that could is the country that in the last two decades led coalitions that liberated Kuwait, Bosnia, Kosovo and Afghanistan. Having sacrificed much blood and treasure in its latest endeavor — the liberation of 25 million Iraqis from the most barbarous tyranny of all, and its replacement with what is beginning to emerge as the Arab world’s first democracy — and having earned near-universal condemnation for its pains, America has absolutely no appetite for such missions.

And so the innocent languish, as did Betancourt, until some local power, inexplicably under the sway of the Bush notion of hard power, gets it done — often with the support of the American military.

~~~~~

In other words, the G-8 signed on to what has been the White House approach since 2002. The U.S. has relied on the arc of domestic energy programs now in place, like fuel-economy standards and efficiency regulations, along with billions in subsidies for low-carbon technology. Europe threw in with the central planning of the Kyoto Protocol — and the contrast is instructive. Between 2000 and 2006, U.S. net greenhouse gas emissions fell 3%. Of the 17 largest world-wide emitters, only France reduced by more.

So despite environmentalist sanctimony about the urgent need for President Bush and the U.S. to “take the lead” on global warming, his program has done better than most everybody else’s. That won’t make the evening news. But the fact is that the new G-8 document is best understood as a second look at the “leadership” of … you know who.

Yeah, we know who, Bushie.

The G-8 also conceded that global-warming masochism is futile and painfully expensive. If every rich country drastically cut CO2, those cuts would be wiped out by emissions from China and India. “Carbon leakage” is a major problem too, where cutbacks in some countries lead to increases in others with less strict policies, as manufacturing and the like are outsourced. This whack-a-mole won’t stop without including all 17 major economies, which together produce roughly 80% of global emissions.

He was right about Iraq and now he is right about “climate change.”

And that means you are wrong, liberals, as usual.

~~~~~~

Some liberals fret that Barack Obama is tacking to the center after his acquiescence to the Supreme Court’s repeal of Washington’s handgun law, his shift on telephone company immunity for cooperating with wiretaps, and his call for more faith-based social programs. But this is just the beginning. The logic of the race will shortly lead Sen. Obama to buck bigger liberal pieties on core priorities like schools, taxes and health care in order to win.

If the “too liberal” label sticks, Mr. Obama won’t win. And if he doesn’t demonstrate his openness to more ideologically androgynous means to achieve his goals, he won’t be able to govern.

Isn’t that sweet, your kkkandidate has to run from your ideas if he is to have any chance of winning.

Does that not just say it all?

Conservatism rules, it is the preference of the nation, and liberalism is foul and disgusting.

Check it out, the majority of the dhimmokrats that won in the 06 elections ran as Conservatives, did they not?

So shut your filthy little mouths, you depraved pervert liberals, and behold the sight of your presidential candidate throwing you and your sicknesses under thee bus.

Crowded under there, ain’t it?

Say hello to Gramma for me.

Well, I was smiling real big at the gas station this a.m. when I filled up the beer truck. I didn’t want anybody to think I was a whiner. It hurt alot to watch the numbers go round and round but I wanted people to know things is pretty good and its only the crazy people and libruls that think we got a bad economy. There’s plenty of jobs out there if you are willing to pluck chickens and prices ain’t as bad as they could be. Anyhow, when old man McCain’s adviser says we got it good and everything is sound we ought to beleive him.

We ought to be thanking VP Cheney for cutting the CDC testamony. By the time he got finished it was down to two pages and our tax money wasn’t being wasted on a bunch of blowhards listening to this long speech. All we needed to hear is its hot outside and its just summer weather and it ain’t nobody’s fault. Don’t worry about the ice cap. It will freeze up again.

Anyhow, Joe Bill says he’s running for the state seat next up here in Forsyth. He wants to get hisself appointed Grady board chairman and then get paid a few million bucks to step down. Says he would be set for life.

Well, have a good weekend everybody. I got to go before this AJC Commie Management guy gets on here and starts spreading stuff like a dog with the runs. Some of us need to start up a drive to get Luckovich to open earlier so the guy will have someplace to put his stuff.

Whiners are people who don’t do something about their situation and just wait on someone else to do it for them. If you are losing your house to foreclosure, why is that? Get off your arse and do something about it. Work harder or sell your house. Don’t wait for the government to come around and save your butt, do it yourself. Most of those examples from Mrs. Godzilla of so called whiners did something about their situation, they didn’t just sit around and wait for someone else to do it. Today everyone who is sitting around crying about how they are losing their house are whiners.

As to jobs, if you can’t find a job in todays economy then you are a loser. check out the classifieds there are plenty of jobs in there I’ve looked. Just because it isn’t the job you want doesn’t mean that you can’t find a job. Stop whining and do something.

In fact neither were in town………

“The problem with the critique? McCain also missed that vote on the Kyl-Lieberman amendment on September 26, 2007. Records show that Obama was in New Hampshire and McCain was in New York instead of being in the Senate chamber for the vote in question.”

Good morning all. Gentleman Jim is in fine humor today. The Grady Hospital contract reeks of corruption. Broke public entities do not give a million dollars to a single politician, even for good services.

I respectfully disagree on preserving pretty buildings. Call me Schumpeter’s disciple.

I don’t think Israel will wait until Labor Day, without regard to the implications on US presidential politics. Conservatives will rally behind Israel, and Leftists will, as usual, cower or whine. Not sure which side President Bush or Senator McCain will take. We all know what Sen. Obama will do.

I would probably fire Ms. Gerberding as a whiner. Too many in positions of authority. She has the right to her beliefs, but no right to draw a salary.

Although I think Atlanta is wrong on the issue, Judge jbmlaw would not grant a TRO either. Standard of proof is too high, and I have little use for theoretical cases. Now, after an arrest, I would also not dismiss a $1 billion “violation of civil rights” lawsuit against the city and the airport and Mayor Franklin.

Whatever nuance Barack Obama is now adding to his Iraq withdrawal strategy, the core plan on his Web site is as plain as day: Obama would “immediately begin to remove our troops from Iraq. He will remove one to two combat brigades each month, and have all of our combat brigades out of Iraq within 16 months.”

Asked if he considered it dangerous to pull out if the withdrawal is not based on “conditions,” Hammond said, “It’s very dangerous. I’ll speak for the coalition forces, men and women of character and moral courage; we have a mission, and it’s not until the mission is done that I can look my leader in the eye and say, ‘Sir, Ma’am, mission accomplished,’ and I think it is dangerous to leave anything a little early.”

I see Jim is relying on the old 2004 election tactics to launch his attacks at Obama: insist that he’s weak, claim he stands for nothing, and say “flip-flopper” a lot.

The problem is, that tactic isn’t working this time. America has seen how the stubborn-ignorance model has failed, and we’re ready for a smarter, LIBERAL, adminstration. And by acknowledging Obama’s intelligent campaign decisions, it seems that even Jim has conceded defeat this cycle.

Welcome to President Obama’s term: restoring America! (Don’t worry, we’ll still let you ignorant fascists live here too, despite your Bush votes.)

Israel can “act” all they like—-but if they stupidly launch a war of aggression (no doubt claiming it’s in “self-defense”), they’re doing it alone. We’re not their hired goon.

As for the CDC testimony: It’s well known now that the Bush administration regularly tries to censor government scientists whose findings don’t toe the party line. What’s surprising is Wooten’s attempt to defend this as somehow “protecting free and open debate.” But then, truth has never been a priority for conservatives. Blind obedience is.

Do liberals not understand the diference between the RIGHT to carry a weapon and the DESIRE for society to? Nobody WANTS an airport full of legal guns, but just because it is not your preference, does not mean that you can deny somebody’s rights (especially constitutional ones). Uphold the constitution and then have a little personal responsability. And punish those who break the law swiftly.

Now if they DO decide that the Airport is a place to BAN guns (and this needs to be done at the federal level). We need to respect the change in law, but be very careful that it stops there.

We all know what is wrong with Grady, Clayton County, City of Atlanta, Lithonia, Hartsfield-Jackson airport, etc. etc.etc. We just can’t say it.

Ahmadinejad and his rhetoric is playing the US, Israel (and the world) like the obese, bloated Baby Huey bureaucratic bumbling fools that we are. When Tel Aviv and NYC is a smoking cinder, maybe we will understand this guy is an Islamic radical fanatic— hell bent on doing whatever it takes to fulfill his biblical (Koran) mission—to destroy all the infidels.

TAD’s (Tax Allocation Districts) are nothing more than transfers of taxpayer funds to the developers in exchange for campaign contributions. It is a scam—through and through.

We’ll never know if Marvin Shoob was the next judge in the rotation that just happened to to come up for the City of Atlanta’s suit on gun usage. But I seriously doubt it. I can’t prove it—-but this was likely manipulated.

Folks, this revamp of Grady is just not going to work! Grady needs to fail, close it doors, and start over before the nepotism, crony sm, leaches and the “taxpayer-sucking mindset” is flushed out. The state, counties and cities can put million$ more into Grady—and it will still be what is is…a cesspool of bureaucracy and inefficiency.

If there is money to be spend at Grady—it will—just like this wasted $750k. If I were the state, a philanthropic institution, or any contributer to Grady—I would STOP GIVING THEM ANYTHING until the whole thing comes crashing down.

“Don’t try to criminalize disagreement.”

Seriously?!?!? Is a Bush supporter seriously going to come with that as an argument?!?!? That’s the Bush M.O. To eliminate dissent and disagreement among the federal government, and to the state and local level as well thru prosecutions carried out at the whims and direction of Karl Rove. If Rove has nothing to hide, then why is he refusing to comply with his subpoena? Seems to me that he has plenty to hide, and so does George W. Bush. I think Congress should table this investigation until after Jan. 19 2009, so there won’t be any more obstruction by the partisan Justice Dept. Bush, Cheney, Rove all should not rest easy once they leave office because we (the American people) are not going to forget all the criminal activity and trashing of the Constitution that went on under their watch.

As for the Obama typo, that is damn funny. Wonder if he swiched to McCain’s planet because that man is in outer space.

I say since Michael Vick is no longer any use in sports, can we get someone to slam him to the ground really hard torture him like he did to the dogs? That would be great. Put that on pay-per-view and you could use that money for development in Downtown.

So Jim, Bush has a right to edit reports that are issued? Really? I beleive that Bush works for us, ther American People. (At least those who voted for him anyway). I think it is his duty to report the truth to us, not just what he wants to hear. Disagreement is one thing. Flat out lying is another.

And a point about the “whining” comments. I thought you conservatives thought Libs were moonbats. But here we have a guy claiming the current economic downturn is all in our heads. Huh? So wait, if we all concentrate really hard and think we are all happy and wealthy it will happen, right? All $4 gas, foreclosures, etc will just float away because they are figments of our imaginations? Um, yeah. You all can go ahead and think your happy thoughts and fly away to never-never land.

this is too freaking funny … the real black snouts in the MLK family trough are YET AGAIN revealed for all to see. And the worthless, despicable, incessantly pandering, blacks never do any wrong Urinal (to the best of my knowledge) has slavishly failed to publicise this!! Happily I only see a little of the far left Urinal’s muliticultural pandering on line. Wasting even one red cent (geddit??) on such worthless surrender monkey detritus would be criminal anti-American stupidity.

MLK Family Feud

Civil rights leader’s children battle each other over estates

JULY 11—A family dispute over the valuable estates of Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King has landed the late couple’s children in court, with two of the siblings claming that a third has misappropriated money from their parents’s estates. Bernice King and Martin Luther King III charge that, in late June, their brother Dexter improperly transferred “substantial funds” from Bank of America to accounts he controls, according to a Superior Court lawsuit filed yesterday in Fulton County, Georgia. The Bank of America account contains funds from the estate of Coretta Scott King, who died in 2006 at age 78. Bernice King, 45, is administrator of her late mother’s estate, while Dexter, 47, is president of the Estate of Martin Luther King Jr. corporation, of which the siblings are all shareholders. The operation of that business is in disarray, with the siblings “deadlocked” in its management, according to the complaint, which charges that the company’s assets are “being misapplied or wasted.” Dexter King’s siblings allege that he “controls” the corporation and has “wrongfully appropriated assets” from the firm “for his own benefit.” He also has allegedly refused to provide his brother and sister with “information and documentation concerning the operation, actions and financial affairs of the Corporation to which they are entitled.” In 2006, the King corporation, which controls the use of the late civil rights leader’s image, sold a private collection of his papers that had been estimated to be worth about $30 million.

Maybe these grasping black snouts in the MLK trough freeloaders will also follow the new black on black trend and publicly threaten to cut each others’ nuts off … snigger snigger.

Why don’t the gutless pandering media ask the elephant eared half-black racist far left surrender monkey nonentity Hussein Obama on camera whether it agrees with the knuckle dragging overtly racist black thug Jackasson about whitey being responsible for the 70% black b astard rate as well as the horrendous NEVER ENDING murdeous black on black murder rate:

The latest black killer stats being:

African-Americans are victims of nearly half the murders committed in the United States despite making up only 13 percent of the population, a report published Thursday showed. Around 8,000 of nearly 16,500 murder victims in 2005, or 49 percent, were black Americans, according to the report released by the statistics bureau of the Department of Justice.

Broken down by gender, 6,800 black men were murdered in 2005, making up more than half the nearly 13,000 male murder victims.

Black women made up 35 percent, or 1,200, of the nearly 3,500 female homicide victims.

Young black men aged between 17 and 29 bore a disproportionately high burden in the grim statistics, making up 51 percent of African-American murder victims.

The percentage of white male murder victims in the same age group was 37 percent.

More than half the murders of blacks took place in densely populated urban areas.

Firearms were involved 77 percent of the time in homicides involving black people and around 60 percent of the time in murders of whites.

Most murder victims — 93 percent of blacks and 85 percent of whites — were killed by someone of their own race.

Gang violence was involved in around five percent of homicides with black victims against seven percent for white victims.

In percentage terms, whites were twice as likely to be killed by a current or former partner than blacks — 12 percent of whites were murdered by a life partner against six percent of blacks.

Blacks were also at greater risk of rape or sexual assault than any other ethnic group except American Indians, the report showed.

Perhaps the racistbitchDebbieturd would care to comment on these heart warming FEDERAL stats … thought not … HUGE SNIGGER

I have a really simple solution for the guns in the airport situation.

Every time that a police officer, TSA officer or security of any type observes someone with a gun they should yell GUN!! Search the person with the gun to make sure they have the proper credentials to carry said gun and lockdown the entire airport while it’s done. You can’t tell just by looking that the person has the correct documentation so prudence being justified it would meet the standards of the current law. Oh by the way, you’d have to prove that your address was correct and accurate, that you’d not allowed your licnese to expire by a couple of days or any other paperwork snafu that would otherwise go unnoticed. If ANYTHING was not in order you’d get a nice long trip to jail.

Meanwhile, with the airport locking down 18 times a day, you’d see the feds in here quicker than you can say Wooten’s an Idiot to set this right.

Reagan probably had Alzheimers the whole time he was Prez. When he testified that he “couldn’t remember” in the Iran Contra hearings he was telling the truth. I think Nancy Reagan was really the one making decisions.

Has McCain been tested for Alzheimer’s? Or is he just forgetful?

However, Ageism is as bad as sexism, racism and anti-semitism, which is why I’m asking you to refer to his faults, not his age. There’s a lot to criticize without repeating OLD.

“…I am and adult….Begone wanker.”

How could anyone have ever doubted your adulthood?

It’s funny to me how quickly people want to jump on something to call it a flip flop. Obama has consistently been the same on Iraq. “A war that should have never been authorized and never been waged.” “I will end this war.” “We want to be as careful getting out of Iraq as we were careless getting in.” The truth is that Obama has always said he would unequivocally get us out of Iraq but would listen to his commanders on the ground about the manner and speed that it will take to safely leave Iraq. Critics of his want to point to some lack of experience and say he is not qualified to be president, but those same critics want to sieze on his descriptions of being smart on leaving Iraq as somehow him flip flopping on his position. To me it is very clear that his pragmatic view of using all the input of commanders on the ground to determine the timetable demonstrates his superior judgement to that of John McCain who repeatedly states that the US will be in Iraq in definitely. To me it seems obvious that the situation on the ground should be important to McCain and how it affects his strategy on Iraq. Isn’t there the possibility that the situation could IMPROVE to the point that having our troops there serves no purpose? And isn’t there also the possibility that the situation could WORSEN to the point that it makes no sense for our troops to remain, i.e. and all out sectarian civil war that has nothing to do with the US? The point is that because our objective(s) of getting into the Iraq War were either lies or have already been accomplished, we should be leaving anyway. Plus the fact of how the war has undercut our influence and standing in the world and at the same time allowed Iran to become the ultimate power broker in the region. We have blundered and the only way to correct that blunder is to end this war and begin working on our standing and influence in the world thru demonstrating a change of philosophy.

It never ceases to amaze me that the party of Ronald Reagan can try to demonize Barack Obama for demonstrating a willingness to negotiate directly with Iran without preconditions, when Reagan did exactly that with the Soviet Union. And it was because of that direct engagement that WWIII was avoided. Much in the same way that Kennedy navigated the Cuban Missle Crisis, by being willing to negotiate directly with the Soviets (albeit in a behind the scenes way). But at the same time that does not amaze me about Republicans, because Republicans never seek to research and understand their enemies. Take for example Iran. The population of Iran is over 70 million, of which more than two thirds are under 30 years of age. A deeper look into Iran shows that this younger generation (who either weren’t around for the Islamic revolution or were toddlers a the time) is pro western (craving western culture like movies, music, styles). As recently as 2005 they had a president who had made major reforms, even cooperating with the US enough to have some sanctions lowered. (Did that mean Iran was not doing some bad things? No, but these things take time and don’t happen because of outside forces, but because of inside ones.) But our aggressive activities in Iraq and tough talk (like the axis of evil state of the union remarks) allowed a hardliner to win back the presidency. And we are seeing the results of our short sighted and down right ignorant policies. The bottom line is that Iran is a young country that currently has the older more radical generation still pulling the strings, but it won’t always be that way. Our mission is to make sure that as this younger generation ages and takes over, that the US is seen as a good country to them, not an aggressive war monger bully. The way to do that is the way Reagan did it. Be tough but fair and never be afraid to talk to you enemy. Just because you talk does not mean you are giving anything away.

Jim, I’ve given up on your issuing a correction to your Tuesday column, wherein you falsely asserted that Obama’s tax proposals, specifically those concerning capital gains, would have adversely affected “600,000” Georgians in 2006. The week’s about wound down and I have other things to attend to, but for the record I am very disappointed that you haven’t seen fit to fix this.

I won’t keep pointing it out beyond this post, even though I continue to wonder how you could think that there were 600,000 Georgians who fell into the over-$250K tax bracket in 2006. It’s not too late—a simple “Correction” at the bottom would do the trick.

I write this because the fallacies out there on the ‘net are often spinning out of control, and we spend a ton of time simply correcting easily disprovable assertions. I’m sorry to see you adding to this collection of online fallacies.

What Mr. Wooten has failed to factor into his prediction regarding the outcome of the GeorgiaCarry.Org lawsuit against the city of Atlanta is that Mayor Franklin’s and Mr. DeCosta’s pronouncement regarding the airport being a “gun-free zone” is in violation of existing and current state law. Even if the Honorable Judge Shoob elects to rule in favor of the defendants despite the fact that they are in violation of the law, the appeals court certainly will overturn him — as they have in the past on many other issues.

Similarly, to those who support Mayor Franklin’s and Mr. DeCosta’s position, are you supporting the decision of those two individuals to blatantly and flagrantly disregard the law? How would you feel if Mayor Franklin suddenly decreed only favorable stories regarding her administration could be published in the newspaper? Or if Mr. DeCosta suddenly decreed that a strip-search was required to enter the airport terminal building even before one gets to security? Please be very, very careful at how much personal liberty you are prepared to sacrifice for a false sense of security.

I know that the “guns” issue is an emotional one, but please consider both the merits of the defense’s case (which have, incidentally, already been used and defeated in another recent lawsuit against the city) and the wisdom of Mayor Franklin’s administration spending countless of thousands of dollars on external counsel to support her untenable position in court in the midst of a budget crisis.

Mrs. Godzilla,

Dear Pink-o

American colonists whined about taxation without representation and then gave a tea party in Boston Harbor.

They did not whine, they beat the best Army of that day

American colonists whined about the tyranny of King George (sound familiar?) and then started the Revolution.

See above

Black Americans whined about being beaten, murdered and generally abuse as slaves and we got our civil war.

Whined, I doubt it, they bled and the nation took steps to stop it.

Women whined about no voice in government and got the right to vote.

Hmm, Is this why Dick Cheney’s state gave women the right to vote first, in the 19th century?

Hawaiians whined about 2500 plus deaths at Pearl Harbor and FDR declared war.

I doubt the Hawaiians were whining, the Americans took it on the chin and went to war, doesn’t sound like whining to me.

Americans whined about the USSR being ahead of us in the space race and we landed on the moon.

Again, whined??? No we did something.

Today, when the AJC/DNC want to scare folks they bad mouth the economy or something else. These scaremongers are the whiners. Oh, the housing market is bad, over and over, until folks believe it and they stop buying.

They whine about folks with minimal credit not being able to buy houses, they whine and whine until the Congress allows lowered standards .

The whiners are not the source of solution, but the cause of the problems. We use to be able to take a disaster and use it to bring the country together. Now, in this enlightened time, we criticize them or blame someone else. As in Katrina, within 3 days over 100,000 aid workers were on the ground helping folks. They did not whine, they just went to work helping.

As for John McCain’s domestic policy failings….

I understand that he says “Gramm doesn’t speak for me” but that’s still not good enough. The fact that someone like Phil Gramm is even allowed to be involved with McCain’s campaign is egregious in itself. Gramm helped get the Enron loophole passed into law that allowed not only the California energy crisis of 2000-2001, but is helping to fuel (pardon the pun) the current over pricing of oil (thru the oil futures speculation markets that the loophole allow). His wife was also heavily involved with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission as chair that helped get the loophole passed, and she subsequently ended up on the board for Enron and was sued in the lawsuits that followed the fallout from Enron. So the man’s integrity is in serious question not to mention his wisdom on economic issues in light of his ‘whiners’ comments. Last time I checked gasoline is $4 a gallon (when it was $1.25 3 years ago) making it difficult to make ends meet, and my healthcare plan went from having a choice of plans and deductables as low as $500 to not having a choice and having to have a $1000 deductable PER PERSON COVERED!!!! That is not imagined or ‘pyscological’, it’s real.

McCain also looked completely dumbfounded and flatfooted when asked about healthcare companies covering Viagra but not birth control. Seems to me that’s a pretty straightforward issue to address as not fair and downright sexist. Why he needs to research and get back to the media on that one is baffling.

Then there is his uncomfortable attempts at humor over issues that aren’t very funny at all. In addressing Gramm’s remarks, and being asked if Gramm might be considered for Treasury Secretary he made some joke about making him ambassador to Belarus. #1 the economy is not a funny issue to be the setup for some out of left field punchline, #2 we already look stupid to the rest of the world, why not add Belarus to the list of countries we insult. Then there was his response to the fact that exports to Iran actually increased under Bush, in particular cigarettes, to which McCain replied, “maybe that’s a way of killing them (Iranians).” If our main beef with Iran is their stated mission to kill Israelis, isn’t it a little hypocritical to have a man who might be president delighting in the prospect of Iranians dying from cigarette related cancer?? McCain also was quoted as making a joke about bombing Iran to the tune of the Beach Boys’ Barbara Ann. Since when did it become okay for a president or presidential candidate to become so cavalier with who should be killed? We have had Bush talking about killing people for 6-7 years now as if he was head of the Corrleone family instead of POTUS. That mindset needs to change.

Senator McCain Has a Serious “Knowledge Gap”: It’s an Issue…Senator John McCain’s latest gaffe on Social Security is somewhat breathtaking, and ought to be a campaign issue. It indicates that he is not any better informed on major domestic policy issues than he is on foreign policy (which is supposedly his “strength”)…..McCain stated that “al-Qaeda is going back into Iran and receiving training and are coming back into Iraq from Iran, that’s well known. And it’s unfortunate.” ….The McCain campaign stated that it was just a slip of the tongue, and the Sunday talk shows gave the candidate a pass. But McCain had said the same thing twice before during the same week. It was no slip of the tongue….Then there is energy policy, where McCain claims that offshore drilling in environmentally sensitive areas will reduce our dependence on foreign oil and lower gasoline prices……regardless of motivation, McCain’s “knowledge gap” should raise some doubts about whether he is qualified to be President

But we all know the a**whippin would commence and he’d have to retire back to the same small bedroom he grew up in.

No use arguing with Republicans, they’re right and everyone else is a whiner. Peter, Ms. Godzilla, and every other sane thinking person here, its no use arguing with people of Wooten’s thinking. Just keep drilling til theres nothing more to drill, then we’ll figure some free-market policy later. Bush admitted yesterday that he’s the world’s biggest polluter like it was some great joke or something. Dusty and the rest will keep defending him no matter what. People like ‘Grasping’ say the land the oil companies already have is “unviable.” Well then why lease them in the first place? Seems like a bad business decision if you ask me.

Bottom line: Republicans can’t face the FACTS that their party has driven this country into grave turmoil, and they just rather call you names than see the writing ($4 gas, economy in shambles, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac may have to be bailed out by the government, foreclosures everywhere, two wars we cannot continue to sustain even though Iraq wants us to leave but we won’t) on the wall! You can’t argue with these people anymore. They’d rather be strong and wrong, then weak and right! * All the chestbumping that Republicans do has done what for this country the last 7+ year??? I would love for a Republican to explain this to me. You can’t say we’re safe with OBL still on the loose, can you??*

McCain doesn’t have any problem with birth control. It’s that he cant think on his feet when a reporter asks a question.

According to sources, Barack Obama’s campaign is in talks to become the primary sponsor of BAM Racing’s No. 49 Sprint Cup car for the Pocono race on August 3. Details of the agreement are expected to be worked out over the coming days.

Mrs. Godz @ 12.54, interesting to read that americablog take on McCain’s discomfort with the birth control question. Because that was my very first reaction, too, and I’m amazed it took anyone that long to figure it out.

Obviously, there is a diehard “pro-life” (yarite) base that thinks birth control pills (and IUDs) are “murder.”

McCain knew that, and he knew he had to be careful about how he answered that question.

Mind you I don’t see it as a deal killer for his campaign, but it’s surprising that so many pundits completely missed this angle, when reporting the story yesterday.

Anyway, the issue of birth control is almost certainly a winner for Obama and a loser for McCain. I’m sure that entered into McCain’s reticence to answer the question.

If anything, our focusing on the “old guy freezing” takes it off where it oughta be—that there are some seriously radical elements within the Republican base, that are so far to the right that Americans aren’t even aware of them.

DAYTON, Ohio - Democrat Barack Obama batted away conservative criticism Friday over a comment he made about Americans’ lack of foreign language skills.

“The Republicans jumped on this. I said, absolutely immigrants need to learn English, but we also need to learn foreign languages,” the likely Democratic nominee said as the 1,000-plus crowd in a school gymnasium cheered. It’s a position he long has held.

“This is an example of some of the problems we get into when somebody attacks you for saying the truth, which is: We should want our children with more knowledge. We should want our children to have more skills. There’s nothing wrong with that. That’s a good thing. I know, because I don’t speak a foreign language. It’s embarrassing,” Obama said chuckling as his audience did the same.

At issue was a remark the Illinois senator made Monday in Powder Springs, Ga., that drew laughter from the crowd — but disdain from conservatives and groups advocating English as the official U.S. language. His remark has caused buzz on the Internet and talk radio.

The Americans for Legal Immigration PAC said in a statement, “Barack Obama has stepped on a political land mine by stating Americans should be forced to learn to speak Spanish.” But that’s not what Obama said.

Obama was answering a question on education when he said he doesn’t understand people who say “we need English only.”

“I agree that immigrants should learn English,” Obama said. “But instead of worrying about whether immigrants can learn English — they’ll learn English — you need to make sure your child can speak Spanish. You should be thinking about how can your child become bilingual. We should have every child speaking more than one language.”

He argued that the country should be emphasizing foreign language study in classrooms.

“You know, it’s embarrassing when Europeans come over here, they all speak English, they speak French, they speak German. And then we go over to Europe and all we can say is ‘merci beaucoup!’” Obama said, laughing.

“When I’m president, I decide whether my appointees put more emphasis on public corruption or on something else. And if one group of experts on a policy issue disagrees with another, I decide which prevails as policy. Don’t try to criminalize disagreement.”

If as president you would decide to obfuscate legitimate science, which is in the interest of public health, for the sake of political strategy, I’ll be certain not to vote for you. Most of us still think America is a democracy with a government of, by and for the people. Don’t try and minimize corruption.

Man, that was a lot of effort but, after much research and study, I finally found one liberal idea that Obambi hasn’t ditched yet:

“Achieving energy independence is one of the greatest challenges we’ve ever faced, and it will be the great project of our generation,” he stated.

“The challenge we face from our energy dependence is great. Meeting it will take time, and it will not be easy,” Obama concluded. “But if we’re willing to work at it, and invest in it, and sacrifice for it; if we’re willing to summon the same spirit of optimism and possibility that has defined this country’s greatest progress, then I believe that we too will be able to do it if we really try.”

What a stone dumbas-s.

The doctor was in to see him yesterday. The Luckovich blog closing was very stressful. I could barely keep up with all those runny diapers my Andy was going through. The doctor though says my Andy is doing just fine !

We are going to celebrate tonight with Andy’s favorites! We are having SpaghettiO’s and Kraft Macaroni and Cheese!!!!!!

Thank you so very much for taking my Andy in Mr Wooten, I’m sure you know he’s special. The loss of the Luckovich blog could have been a disaster for my Andy, as you know it was his whole life. You are a very, very good man.

Well I’m out of here, I have a diaper to change and some cans to open.

IRAN MISSILE TEST BLUFF: OLD ROCKETS, BOGUS VIDEO Fri Jul 11 2008 15:18:02 ET

Many of Iran’s claims related to missile tests during “Great Prophet III” war games — appear to be smoke and mirrors!

The missiles tested DID NOT not have 2,000-kilometer range.

Iran DID NOT launch a Shahab-3 missile, able to reach Israel.

It was an older missile that was out of production, newsroom sources tell DRUDGE.

And a video showing what appeared to be many missiles being fired — is actually one missile, filmed from different angles!

And to think, they could have called thee Doom and Gloom and learned how to doctor anti American photos the right way.

Maybe it’s not too late to conjure up a fearsome 600 ship navy for them, eh, Urinal?

Better hurry, before Israel blows them off thee map.

Well, it has been a long day and I see this crowd has been having a great time. But first…ID THIEF @ 12:43 and I don’t eat fish. Ever since I read about the live worm crawling out of the cooked salmon at a restaurant (on a lady’s plate) I just can’t eat fish.

But Jim Wooten always keeps us informed and entertained. How about Planet Obama! Yes, indeed. And much farther out in space than Pluto.

Mrs. Godzie likes fine whine and Dutchman gives her the cheese.

jbmlaw got it right on TFTT. The pen of TFTT is mightier than the sword or something. As to PoFo, if he’s stealing my ID I am mad with him. Sometimes he is funny and sometimes he remembers his own ID. HIDT I never know.

Miss Congeniality is DebbieDoRight? Are you sure? She’s not using as many expletives.

All these libs complaining about the sensible age of McCain are probably pushing ninety at least. Peter, TW, CopyLeft, dirty hairy and Mrs. Godzy for sure.

Did I miss anything? Oh yes, Hagel as a possibility for Obama’s VP. Well, why not? Might as well have two flip floppers instead of one. I think that would give even liberals the flippety jibbits!

Man, what are you talking about, limpdik?

Obambi has been running from liberalism the same as the AJC house coward luckovich ran and hid from his blog.

And I can’t blame either of them.

Secret U.S. mission hauls uranium from Iraq. The removal of 550 metric tons of “yellowcake” — the seed material for higher-grade nuclear enrichment — was a significant step toward closing the books on Saddam’s nuclear legacy. Sat., July. 5, 2008- PMSNBC

Mrs. G:

There’s another side to the Brandenburg Gate story if you’re interested.

Germany denies Bush thwarted Obama speech

And from der Spiegel:

(((His strategists had hoped that Merkel would take the choice of Berlin and the Brandenburg Gate for the speech as a compliment.)))

Clearly she doesn’t. As an ally she chooses to remain neutral in the U.S. Presidential elections which is exactly what she should do.

Once again Obama displays foreign policy naivete.

This’ll go sour for Obama too. The voters in the U.S. believe that their domestic needs should be the focus of presidential candidates; not how fantastic he (Obama) would look in front of the Brandenburg Gate.

Both Reagan and Clinton spoke at the Brandenburg Gate, but only while they were “sitting” presidents.

This is not something that he should push for his personal gratification.

Hagel’s going on a CODEL to Iraq!!!!! Delegates do it all the time in a bi-partisan effort to stay abreast. It’s likely Hagel will need to explain Iraq’s military matters to a candidate who has shown no interest or knowledge of same to date.

Moron Jim said: Some have no clue what causes AIDS…

Well, there Moron Jim, being the immunologist that turned into a stupid Rethuglicon bootlicker, why don’t you tell everyone what does cause AIDS. The entire medical community would like to know because they are not even sure. Oh, I guess you are referring to sex. And more likely homosexual sex. You probably believe, like a good little goose-stepping Rethuglicon, that it’s God’s punishment for the wicked and sinful homos. So how do you explain heterosexuals getting AIDS without having had any same-sex contact? You can’t because it doesn’t fit with your narrow bigoted view of the world. You are a disgrace to intelligent people. It’s no wonder you appeal to the lowest common denominator.

When you vote Rethuglicon, you vote against your own best interests. And Moron Jim’s bigoted ignorant view of AIDS is living proof.

Moron Jim said: Good grief. The Bush administration had an absolute right to edit the proposed testimony of CDC director Julie Gerberding before Congress concerning global warming. Experts disagree. Neither she, nor U.S. attorneys, fired or otherwise, are free agents authorized to make policy on their own. They serve at the will of the president. When I’m president, I decide whether my appointees put more emphasis on public corruption or on something else. And if one group of experts on a policy issue disagrees with another, I decide which prevails as policy. Don’t try to criminalize disagreement.

What Moron Jim doesn’t tell you is that the Democrats don’t want spin and lies from the Bush administration. There’s been enough of that with the reckless and unnecessary Iraq war. Whenever anyone is to testify at a Congressional hearing, they are supposed to do the talking; not the administration. You do not make political positions into science. Of course, Rethuglicons like Moron Jim can’t see t he difference. Evolution is not true because the Rethuglicons have to appease the religoNazis who only believe in the fairy tale of creation. Global Warming isn’t real because the Rethuglicons have to appease the oil/gas/coal/electrical/auto industries who’s existence depends on greenhouse gas production. Yes, experts disagree on the mechanism of global warming or how severe will be the effects. But, that doesn’t give Bush or anyone else to suppress scientific facts. As Patrick Leheay once said ‘You are entitled to your own opinion, but you are not entitled to your own facts.’ Something the Rethuglicons have ignored.

When you vote Rethuglicon, you vote against your own best interests. And suppressing facts over political policy is living proof.
