What The Bleep Bleep Bleep Bleep...Bleep?!

ABC Fumes Over Mitt Romney Aide 'Getting Nasty With the Press' During 'Gaffe'-Filled Trip.

1) I’m not going to give this much time or space due to the fact that it’s about the lamestream media.

2) I don’t call telling a bunch of less-than-first-year journalism students to, “Kiss my ass!” as swearing at reporters. That was a request; one that anyone with half a brain cell has been saying over and over, in our minds or aloud, every time we have to listen to the crap generated by the lamestream media. 

   The only fault I find is (I wish that I could have been on Romney’s security team) that a whole bunch of people weren’t in the emergency room having their pads and pencils removed from their collective asses... uuuh... because they got too close to him? You gotta have some kind of excuse... I’ve found ‘stoopid’ isn’t one of ‘em.

3) It’s pretty hard to take anything seriously when the source(s) are on Obimbo’s payroll.

4) Romney didn’t make one ‘gaffe’ while he was on his ‘gaffe’-filled trip. He didn’t say anything that hasn’t been said before; he just had the cojones to say what needed to be said. And not one 'reporter' asked him a legitimate, news-worthy question.

   Every time Obimbo opens his mouth -- even with his ever-present teleprompter -- he says, or does, something ‘stoopid.’ It keeps Obimbo’s bought whores awfully busy, following behind him, cleaning up his doo-doo.

5) I’ve already wasted too much time and space.

Why Mitt Romney Is Unlikeable!

I just received this from my friend and commentor, JonBerg; you may have seen it somewhere else, but here it is again: 

A lot is being said in the media about Mitt Romney not being “likable” or that he doesn’t “relate well” to people. Here’s a Top Ten List to explain this “unlikablility.”

Just for the record:

His full name: Willard Mitt Romney. 

He was born: March 12, 1947 and is 65 years old.

His father: George W. Romney, former Governor of the State of Michigan. 

He was raised in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan. 

He is married to Ann Romney. They wed in 1969 and have five children. 

Education: B.A. from Brigham Young University, J.D. and M.B.A. from Harvard University. 

Religion: Mormon -- The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter-Day Saints. 

Working Background: After high school, he spent 30 months in France as a Mormon missionary. 

After going to both Harvard Business School and Harvard Law School simultaneously, he passed the Michigan bar exam, but never worked as an attorney. (He has my vote right there!) 

In 1984, he co-founded Bain Capital a private equity investment firm, one of the largest such firms in the United States. 

In 1994, he ran for Senator of  Massachusetts and lost to Ted Kennedy. (That was Massachusetts’ loss.) 

He was President and CEO of the 2002 Winter Olympic Games. 

In 2002, he was elected Governor of the State of Massachusetts where he eliminated a 1.5 billion deficit. 

Some interesting facts about Romney:

Bain Capital, starting with one small office supply store in Massachusetts, turned it into Staples; now over 2,000 stores employing 90,000 people. 

Bain Capital also worked to perform the same kinds of business miracles again and again, with companies like Domino’s, Sealy, Brookstone, Weather Channel, Burger King, Warner Music Group, Dollarama and Home Depot Supply just to mention a few. 

He was an unpaid volunteer campaign worker for his father’s gubernatorial campaign for one year. 

He was an unpaid intern in his father’s governor’s office for eight years. 

He was an unpaid Bishop and Stake President of his church for ten years. 

He was an unpaid President of the Salt Lake Olympic Committee for three years. 

He took no salary and was the unpaid Governor of Massachusetts for four years. 

He gave his entire inheritance from his father to charity. 

Mitt Romney is one of the wealthiest self-made men in our country but has given more back to its citizens in terms of money, service and time than most men. 

In 2011, Mitt Romney gave over $4 million to charity, almost 19% of his income. For comparison purposes, Obama gave 1% and Joe Biden gave $300 or .0013%. 

Mitt Romney is trustworthy:

He will show us his birth certificate 

He will show us his high school and college transcripts. 

He will show us his social security card. 

He will show us his law degree. 

He will show us his draft notice. 

He will show us his medical records. 

He will show us his income tax records. 

He will show us he has nothing to hide. 

Mitt Romney’s background, experience and trustworthiness show him to be a great leader and an excellent citizen for President of the United States. 

You may think that Romney may not be the best representative the Republicans could have selected. 

At least I know what religion he is, and that he won’t desecrate the flag, bow down to foreign powers, or practice fiscal irresponsibility. 

I know he has the ability to turn around this financial debacle that the current regime has gotten us into. We won’t like all the things necessary to recover from this debt, but someone with Romney’s background can do it.

Now, on the minus side:

He never was a “Community Organizer,” never took drugs or smoked pot, never got drunk, did not associate with Communists or terrorists, nor did he attend a church whose pastor called for God to damn the United States of America.

Sheech... with a background like that, I will have to admit that Romney's gonna have a difficult time in politics.

Yes, They Are This Stupid.

Screw Business As Usual…

A Fire And Brimstone Strategy.

This is so good, I can’t mess with it. Okay, I messed with it SOME and left a few things out. It was written by Craig Andresen of The National Patriot before we knew who the Republican presidential candidate would be, so I’ve made it in the present tense, too.

It’s going to be an ugly campaign. We all know it and we’re ready for it but it’s going to the ugliest and nastiest and dirtiest campaign in history. 

[So,] why NOT take the early lead? 

If [Romney] takes this advice, it will send a clear message to the Republican establishment that conservatives aren’t going to do business as usual any more. It would shake the establishment and pull together conservative voters. 

...[I]f ... Romney ... adopts this measure, HE would pull together the conservative vote. 

Here is a little something else this would do… it would shake the Obama campaign to its core. 

As soon as the 1,144 delegates are in hand, ... either at the convention or before… put this into motion. 

Rather than a leisurely march toward a VP nominee or a surprise VP announcement like we got in 2008, vet the possible VPs NOW and stand ready to announce the running mate in a nationally televised press conference the day after the delegates are in hand.

Make the VP choice… Allen West.

Having Congressman West in the VP slot makes him a TRIPLE THREAT and a VP who WILL redefine the role. Triple threat? As the Vice President he would attend to the regular duties and be a heartbeat away from the presidency. A Vice President West would also act as a second Secretary of State in difficult diplomatic negotiations. AND… a Vice President West would work in concert with the Secretary of Defense to realign our military and redefine its role. 

Triple threat. 

Oh, but this is just the START of the strategy! 

As soon as [Romney] has introduced West as the running mate…THE NOMINEE WOULD THEN INTRODUCE HIS SECRETARY OF STATE NOMINEE… 

John Bolton. As a former Ambassador to the United Nations there is nobody with a better handle on the world’s issues or more familiar with the players. John Bolton is tough, straight forward and not likely to appease ANYONE.

Now, you have the nominee on stage, the VP choice and the Secretary of State nominee… let’s not stop there.

Next to walk onto the stage… 

Sarah Palin… nominee for Secretary of Energy.

Palin’s directive… set us on the path toward energy independent in 10 years. Can you think of a better choice? Anyone more invested in that goal? Anyone who is more knowledgeable or adept? 

I don’t. 

Can you feel the ground starting to shake? 

Next out of the wings and onto the stage…

The nominee for Secretary of Defense. Enter… General David Petraeus.

As great as he was fighting a PC war… imagine what he’ll be like once he and West have pressed the reset button on our rules of engagement. In Petraeus we will have a Secretary of Defense whose mission will be to win. PERIOD. 

Oh, I’m not done yet… 

Next up… the nominee for Attorney General… Pam Bondi. 

Bondi is a no nonsense fighter who has taken on the current administration over Obamacare and WILL clean out the corruption rampant in that office today. 

Okay, where are we? Who is now standing on the stage? The nominee... Allen West… John Bolton… Sarah Palin… General Petreaus and Pam Bondi. 

How about a Secretary of the Treasury? We would need someone who has worked for YEARS in the tax field who understands the overwhelming burden of tax codes and who has, for years fought to restructure those codes. 

Welcome Michele Bachmann to the stage… the nominee for Secretary of the Treasury.

By now, fissures should be opening in the ground, rumbling coming from the sky and the faint odor of brimstone should be in the air.

We will need someone new… someone with new ideas to head up the Fed. 

Please welcome Ron Paul. Yes, I realize this, under Paul, will be a temporary position; but somehow, I doubt Ron Paul wants to make a career of running the Fed. 

Secretary of the Interior? Governor Bobby Jindal… COME ON DOWN!!!!! 

And finally…We need someone to head up the Department of Homeland Security. We must have someone who understands the issues we face. Someone who has worked in federal law enforcement. Someone who won’t take any crap from anybody. 

Please… a round of applause for… Sheriff Joe Arpaio.

Feel free to substitute names… add your own choices, but these are mine. The picks are only a part of the whole picture however. The impact is as important as the names.

Were the GOP nominee to do this… call a press conference and make such an announcement… It would be unprecedented. Never before has a presidential nominee entered the full on campaign with a fully assembled team. 

Can you even IMAGINE the shock-and-awe wave which would be sent through the Obama campaign were the GOP nominee to do this? 

Think about it. 

From the word GO it would be unlike any previous presidential campaign.
Instead of simply [Romney] against Obama we would have [Romney] vs Obama… Congressman Allen West vs Joe Biden… John Bolton vs Hillary Clinton… Sarah Palin vs Stephen Chu… General Petreaus vs Leon Panetta… Pam Bondi vs Eric Holder… Michele Bachmann vs Tim Geitner... Ron Paul vs Ben Bernake… Bobby Jindal vs Ken Salazar and Sheriff Joe Arpaio vs Janet Napolitano.

Think about that…Let that sink in…All campaigning at once. There would be no way out for Obama as each and every key player on his team would be exposed and held to account from the word GO. It would be a full on frontal assault and Obama would have no place to hide.

By adopting this proposal, Obama would be forced into a pot of boiling water or into the fire. If he tried to rid himself of baggage he would be exposed of running from his own record and that of the very people he’s been standing behind for political expediency. If he stays with them, he would be forced to defend them. Boiling water or a raging fire… his choice. 

It’s bold, brash and completely against the establishment business as usual strategy. 

It’s earth shaking. 

An entire assembled team of key cabinet positions…Each one a pitbull on a T-Bone… hammering their liberal counterparts on every issue, every day, from the word GO until November 6th, 2012. 

We will have to play the cards we’re dealt with [Romney,] but tell me THIS strategy wouldn’t go a LONG way toward bringing the conservative voters together. Tell me this strategy wouldn’t pull in and appeal to independents. 

As voters, using THIS strategy, we would be voting for the whole team rather than just the standard, business-as-usual Presidential 2-person ticket. 

Feel free to insert your own cabinet choices and explanations in the comments below -- but whatever you do…

And They Want 12 Years Of Romney’s Tax Returns?

Mystery seems to be a generational thing. Nearly a dozen aliases and at least two different Social Security numbers (with upwards of over 99 separate addresses) have been found for Ann Dunham, Obimbo’s mother. She did work for the ultra-liberal Ford Foundation and she may have earned some income from pornographic poses. The only real thing researchers have been able to find out about Obimbo’s mother is that she had close ties (smirk, smirk) to Frank Marshall Davis... and the fact she made porn. I’m pretty sure that’s a first for presidential mothers.

Obimbo Loves Ya, Mitten...

Just Keep Diggin That Hole!   

On Wednesday, February 1st, Erick Erickson of Red State said it best: “It is days like today that make me thankful I think they all suck. At least I’m thankful I’m in the firmly not Romney camp.”

Erickson went on to say:

Having told us only Romney was viable (with half-nods to Huntsman and Santorum) and having trotted out Elliot Abrams to smear Newt Gingrich with out of context quotes, even National Review is having trouble defending their candidate today.

This morning Mitt Romney said he wasn’t concerned about the poor. The poor, after all, have food stamps and Medicaid. But don’t worry. If the safety net is broken, Patrician Mitt Romney will fix it so the poor can stay comfortably poor. After all, just look what he did in Massachusetts. The poor can now wait 44 days to get in to see a doctor. Excelsior!

After making sure we all understood the poor were for the Democrats to be worried about, Romney decided to keep digging his hole even bigger. By the end of the day, Jim DeMint had to rebuke him.

Romney, digging his hole deeper, said his remark needed more context. The context, according to Romney, is that we have government programs to keep the poor . . . well . . . poor but comfortable:

We do have a very ample safety net in America, with Medicaid, housing vouchers, food stamps, earned income tax credit. We have a number of ways of helping the poor. And yet my focus and the area that I think is the greatest challenge that the country faces right now is not, is not to focus our effort on how we help the poor as much as to focus our effort on how to help the middle class in America.

Oh, but that’s not all. If you misunderstood patrician Mitt Romney, he trotted out the other New England patrician, John Sununu -- the man who advised George H. W. Bush to go with David Souter -- to dig the hole even deeper. Sununu told the National Review that their candidate has no intention of changing policies to those that might actually lift the poor out of poverty into the middle class.

“He was saying that we do not need to change policies for them. Same goes for the super-rich, who are fine. It’s the middle class; they’re the ones we need to be aggressive in helping. They’re the ones who’ve taken the brunt of the bad Obama policies of the past three years.”

Note the use of “they’re” in talking about the middle class. They have been hurt most. Not the poor. Not the rich. So much for the GOP condemning class warfare. Romney’s folks are going with it too. Where Obama goes for “fair shares”, Romney wants to focus only on those hurt “most.”

But the coup de grace came late today when, to mitigate the damage, Romney reminded everyone he supports automatic hikes in the minimum wage -- a truly conservative position.

The National Review sure does know how to pick them. Glad they’ll be defending him in the general. I’m not sure I’ll waste my time.

Erickson summed it up for me:  “Sure, I’ll vote for him. But I think I’ll focus on House and Senate races so when the buyers remorse sets in on those who backed Romney we’re not completely screwed down ballot.” 

The Continuing Saga Of Obama, Romney, McCain And Allen West.

 This article has been edited down. For full story by John Ransom go here.

Camp Mittens Duplicity On Allen West Worse Than Conspiracy: It’s A Habit.

All the crying going on from Camp Mittens denying that Romney set out to screw Congressman Allen West out of his seat in Palm Beach County is just the usual exaggerated outrage that we should be accustomed to from Mitt and Company when they’ve been caught in the act. 

It’s hard to keep up with the rhetoric when a campaign has one set of lies to fool the public, one set of lies to fool reporters and one set of lies to fool themselves, in a paraphrase of war-time British Prime Minister David Lloyd George. 

These are the same type of folks in the GOP who within days of the nomination of Sarah Palin for vice president on the Republican ticket, were describing her as a hillbilly-gone-wild at Neiman Marcuses from coast-to-coast. 

What’s worse they were collecting paychecks from John McCain while they were twisting the knife into Sarah Palin and the Republican ticket. Remember that money you sent to McCain? It went to support a hatchet, not a ballot.   

And while the rest of us were knocking on doors, working GOTV, McCain staffers were thinking up better punchlines on the Palin family.  Forget about TARP. The moment McCain lost the campaign was the moment he turned a blind eye to his own campaign staff leaking “information” on Palin. 

Clearly there are two GOPs today. 

There’s a GOP that thinks that we got into the fiscal mess that we are in because both parties lost the fiscal restraint that is the necessary handmaiden of limited government. There’s another GOP that thinks that the only thing that matters in the election contest for president is how much money you can raise and if you sound plausible on TV. 

Guess which side Romney’s on? 

These are the guys who helped Fannie and Freddie securitize the real estate market; these are the guys who brought us Sunshine Charlie Crist; these are the guys who gladly, warmly will try to put the Humpty Dumpty back of the wall if only they can figure out how to monetize, regulate it and tax it and lobby for it. For them, hostility to the grassroots goes beyond ideology. It’s an ingrained habit. 

They know they can’t win the ideological battle against the soul of the GOP, so instead they just gerrymander us. Iowa, New Hampshire, Florida could very well gerrymander Mitt into the nomination, despite his obvious flaws.     
There are two people in our country who as chief executives, passed and signed socialized medicine schemes.

One is Barack Obama. 

The other is Mitt Romney.

These are the guys who support the guys who socialized medicine.  

Palin and West are the guys who support the guys who will get stuck with Romney’s- and Obama’s- White House bill.

I hope I’m wrong about Romney. I hope that if he wins the nomination, he goes on to be the greatest president in the history of the US. 

But the odds are against it if the company he keeps tells us anything. 

And I’d rather be wrong now, than wrong later, as I fear some Romney backers will be. 

I’ll vote Republican, no matter what. I WILL NOT throw the election to Obimbo by voting for a third (or fourth or sixth) party. 

However, I AM disappointed and disgusted that all the GOP(s) could give me is an Obama-lite... so far, anyway (miracles never cease.)

Just saying.
