“America is the land of the free because of the brave.”
Mike Anderson, Gold Star Dad whose son was killed in Fallujah in December, 2004, C-SPAN, 9/16/07

A New Low
This morning on Fox News Sunday, Defense Secretary Robert Gates described MoveOn.org’s “General Betray Us” ad as “despicable.” Quite so, also a new low even for this group of crackpots. Please check out this brilliant graphic depiction of what it might have been like had MoveOn.org been around 65 years ago.

Speaking of new lows, though, in connection with this ad, I haven’t been so enraged watching an honorable, brilliant public servant oozing integrity and with more character in his or her baby toe nail than these pompous gasbags in Congress have in their whole stinky bodies, enduring insults and outright character assassination since Judge Janice Rogers Brown had to listen to Dick “Eddie Haskell” Durbin’s idiotic blathering. This prosecution of General Petraeus was worse, though because here we had this exceptional, brave soldier actually being called a liar BY A CLINTON! Are you kidding me?! What’s next—being called being called drunk by Britney Spears? (She really needs to watch “Animal House.” Fat, drunk and stupid IS no way to go through life as it turns out.) Speaking of stinky gasbags, when Barack Hussein Obama interrogated General Petraeus he consumed 6 of the 7 alloted minutes with the “question” he was asking (actually a lecture over how General Petraeus and Ambassador Crocker have failed). At least he didn’t claim that he hadn’t seen the MoveOn.org ad the way John Edwards did. Let me get this straight: he doesn’t know if the Cuban health care system is government-run, and he hasn’t seen the ad that everyone in the country is talking about? That’s what he expects us to believe? Who does he think we are—one of his moronic juries?

In other Puggle news, Obama weighed in on the decision by a Louisiana appellate court to vacate the felony conviction of a black teenager, on of the defendants that Jesse Jackson and his band of race-baiting “activists,” who are on the scene—natch!—have dubbed the “Jena 6.” Please don’t get me wrong: I haven’t paid a lot of attention to this case, but I’ve seen enough of Jesse and friends over the years to know that it’s probably not about the hideous slough of racial hatred that is their America. Apparently it involves some foolishness about who gets to sit under what tree at a high school. Quick show of hands—who thinks that these kids have too much time on their hands? If they spent their time doing homework instead of wasting time with this sort of foolishness, they’d have less time to fight over something this pointless and idiotic. That’s what the grownups should be telling them instead of trying to stoke the “racial consciousness” that is their stock in trade. One of those stokers, Sen. Obama said “When nooses are being hung in high schools in the 21st Century, it’s a tragedy,” Obama said. “It shows that we still have a lot of work to do as a nation to heal our racial tensions.” Right, especially since you can’t even go to the gas station without risking being shot, right? Not only that, but here we go with another OJ trial. Oh the humanity!

He went on to say, “And the way to do that is to make history and prove that we are no longer the evil, racist country that will never completely shed the stain of slavery, but can move toward making it up to all the victims by electing me.” No, not really. I made that last part up, but you know he and his loudmouth wife aren’t going to give up pumping up the white guilt. It’s far too effective, especially with the Oprah audience that could be leaning toward voting for Hillary, even though the Oprah herself has endorsed He Who Walks on Water.

Did somebody Say “Rupert Pupkin?”

Speaking of the Oprah, remember that James Frey doofus who made up all that baloney about his battle with drug addiction and convinced the Oprah, along with a sizeable portion of her audience that it was true? I mean PULEEZE. Had this book come out today, we might believe that he could board an aircraft covered in vomit, but in 2005? I don’t think so. In any case, the Wall Street Journal reported on his new novel that’s coming out in a few days. What’s fascinating is that even though he is being forced to disgorge some of his ill-gotten gains to settle a class action lawsuit, his fraudulent book is still a best-seller. As the Clintons have taught us so well, the secret to success is being a good liar and being impossible to embarrass.

Mr. BS Lives Up (Down) to His Name
I know he’s Mr. Barbra Streisand, but can anyone be this stupid? “Happy 9/11?” Is that really the phrase that springs to mind on that solemn anniversary? I know that many are going to attribute this breathtaking statement to the Left’s cluelessness about the meaning of the events of 9/11, and I don’t disagree. They don’t understand that on that day, intelligent grownup observers realized that the enemy had been at war with us for decades. We just didn’t know it. And about half of these Hollywood pinheads subscribe to the so-called “9/11 truth” movement, which bears as much relation to truth as the Cuban media’s latest report on Fidel Castro’s robust good health. That’s true, but let’s not discount the effects of dope and just general stupidity when discussing these arrested development cases. Without their money to insulate them from reality, most of them would be wandering the streets, drooling and digging their meals out of dumpsters.

I don’t Hillary wanted this question from Bill Maher.

Cong. Jan Schakowsky in Another Proud Moment for Citizens of Illinois

Shouldn’t this airhead be visiting her old man in the can instead of going on Bill Maher’s show and making a horse’s hind end of herself?

Also on Maher’s latest show, Drew Carey had some great lines, albeit he also said some rather boneheaded things. As for the former:
“I’ve hardly ever meet a democrat Marine,” and (sarcastically) “I can’t wait for the government to take over health care.”


I Still Watch C-SPAN So You Don’t Have to File

You’ll note the quote at the beginning of this post. I did watch much of the C-SPAN coverage of the Hate America rally, and the counter-protest by patriots. If there’s anything worth posting, I’ll put the video up tomorrow.

Coming Up This Week: Emmy’s Tonight, Hillary’s Health Care Plan Tomorrow. Wait a second—haven’t we been there before?

I’ll be watching it all, so check back soon, and have a great week!

The last thing the Husband said to me this morning before he left for the office was “Please don’t cry today.” He hasn’t forgotten that six years ago I spent about two weeks alternately sobbing uncontrollably and expressing disbelief in what I had seen live on tv with my own eyes: a speeding commercial aircraft plowing into the World Trade Center.

I was watching a replay of the “Today” show coverage from 9/11/01, and I couldn’t promise the Husband that I’d shed no tears today. When he said “don’t watch that,” I replied that we have to watch so we never forget. So, while I can’t promise dry eyes today, I can say that my initial shock and sadness has been augmented with the determination that even though we never asked for this war with these barbarians, our nation will see it through to victory.

I was honored, along with the rest of the contributors to be part of Illinois Review’s 9/11 remembrance. Please check it out here.

May God continue to bless the United States of America.

Michelle Obama has done it again. I don’t know about you, but I’ve already had it up to here with this lippy broad. The race-baiting BS about her husband’s likelihood of being shot going to the gas station because he’s a black man is bad enough. Oh, you’re so right, Mrs. Obama. America is such a racist country. Maybe you can discuss that tonight at the Oprah’s $50 million estate. Who in the hell does Michelle Obama think she is—Cornell “I don’t know the difference between the word ‘prostate’ and ‘prostrate’ West? (No, I’m not making that up. Check out the video of Princeton professor Cornell West appearance on the latest edition of “Real Time with Bill Maher.” here.) Not only have we had to endure the stories that I’m sure Hussein Obama’s old lady thinks are SOOO charming and folksy. You know the ones I mean. First she tells us the stories about her Dagwood Bumpstead bumbler of a husband being too lazy to put away the butter, and now she has to tell us that her husband stinks? Can you say TMI? Good Lord, Lady, put a sock in it please!

Bill Clinton, on the other hand, smells terrific (“very fresh”), at least if you can take the word of some balding, aging hippie. I’m not sure that if you’re looking for someone to give you advice on matters olfactory, someone of this description is the best source, given their …shall we say…fragrance. I mean seriously, in many cases, their admiration of the French extends to their eschewing even a nodding acquaintance with a razor, and the pungent aromas that they emit from their fuzzy armpits aren’t going to be confused with perfume any time soon. Plus there’s the odors that they emit as a result of their bizarre diets. To quote my friend comedian Tim Slagle, from his hilarious “Europa” CD, there are fewer emissions coming out of the average SUV than the tailpipe of a hippie.

There’s a certain irony in this latest revelation about Sen. Obama, who has spent several months telling us how he wants to “turn the page” on the Baby Boomers, (even though he himself is in fact a member of the Baby Boom generation.) Despite this desire to be the representative of the New Generation, he’s apparently harkening back to the halcyon days of the 60’s when it comes to hygiene. Who’a thunk it?
