The unabashed hypocrisy of the left; why no outrage in the press?

SCHAKOWSKY REFUSES TO CONDEMN MISOGYNISTIC LANGUAGE FROM TOP OBAMA DONOR

"Two days ago Jan Schakowsky released a statement condemning Rush Limbaugh for his remarks on Sandra Fluke:"

“I strongly condemn the personal and vicious remarks made by Rush Limbaugh and conservative commentators this week about Sandra Fluke, a heroic young woman who is speaking out for her peers about their right to birth control.  The behavior of those leaders from the right can only be classified as misogynistic, offensive, and a deliberate attempt to distract us from the legitimate argument about the consequences of limiting access to contraception.   Rush Limbaugh repeatedly used sexually-charged, patently offensive, and obscene language to malign Sandra’s character.....
"She was asked by a citizen journalist whether or not she would condemn one of President Obama's biggest donors who called Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann, personally, exponentially worse. When presented with the opportunity, Conresswoman Schakowsky refused. "   Video below: 


When Life Gives You Electric Lemons...  "The president added that if his girls are ever called before Congress to testify (which we're giving better than even odds), he wouldn't "want them attacked or called horrible names when they’re being good citizens."
"Unlike Sarah Palin, presumably, who was called a "c*nt" and "tw*t" by Bill Maher, who just gave Barry $1 million with which to run attack ads on Republicans. Of course, there's NO WAY that Obama would keep money from a man who thinks so little of women (like his wife and daughters), so he's giving it all back. When Hell freezes over."

Power Line: THE PARTY OF HATE  "Millions of Americans voted for Barack Obama in the hope that he would be a trailblazer who would conduct the presidency in a new way. Well, he has: Obama has been the most divisive president in our modern history, unabashedly stirring up hate against not only his political enemies, but against private citizens who exercise their right to participate in our democracy. The most recent hatefest has been directed against Rush Limbaugh, and Obama has personally stirred the pot."
...."Barack Obama has been a terrible president in many ways, but perhaps his most poisonous legacy is his cynical fomenting of partisan hate to advance his own political interests. After three years, we have learned that “hope” is not the word that we should associate with the Obama presidency."

Rush still stands

Rush Limbaugh:  Clearing Up Misinformation on Our Sponsors   "Nobody is losing money here, including us, in all this. And that is key for you to understand. They are not canceling the business on our stations. They're just saying they don't want their spots to appear in my show. We don't get any revenue from 'em anyway. The whole effort is to dispirit you. It's to make you think the left is being successful in its campaign when it isn't. In fact, the left is so fed up, they can't see straight. They thought they had me. They thought I would be off the air by now. They can't understand why I still am on the air. There is also another rumor going around that I am going to be suspended for a week. It is utter BS."
After that, Rush moves on to this topic:  Barack Obama's Oil Lies are Rooted in His Contempt for the United States of America;  
Two percent of the world's reserves, and yet we use 20%, and, boy, are we evil, we are selfish.  See, we need to cut back and stop this.  We need to stop taking other people's oil.  Well, of course we don't.  We buy it.  It's another thing.  We're not stealing it.  We're buying it from willing sellers.  There's nothing immoral whatsoever about us using 20% of the world's oil, if we pay for it.  Nothing immoral whatsoever, and I can't tell you how I resent this man's effort day in and day out to somehow say otherwise.  
"Conservative talk radio host Rush Limbaugh is being targeted by multiple death threats after President Barack Obama and the Democratic Party ignored his apology for controversial remarks and continued to single him out for rebuke. The assault has become so nakedly partisan and opportunistic that even HBO host Bill Maher--who recently donated $1 million to Obama's Super PAC--has called it a witch hunt with intimidation as its goal."


Hate and Bile: Left-Wing Attacks on Women Get Little Press  "That’s laughable coming from those who’ve ignored or excused attacks from the left against conservative women like Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, Michelle Malkin*, Ann Coulter and Carrie Prejean. Liberals slime conservative women regularly, usually in language far worse than Limbaugh used. And they are seldom, if ever, held to account for sexual, violent misogynistic speech. Conservative women – whether pundits, politicians or even politicians’ wives – are fair game to the left.
Here are some of the worst examples of attacks on conservative women in recent years."... "Editor’s note – This article contains graphic language, sometimes of an extremely sexual nature." 


*Michelle Malkin: The War on Conservative Women  "It was Keith Olbermann, then at MSNBC and now at Al Gore's Current TV, who wrote on Twitter that columnist S.E. Cupp was "a perfect demonstration of the necessity of the work Planned Parenthood does" and who called me a "mashed up bag of meat with lipstick on it." He stands by those remarks. Olbermann has been a special guest at the White House."

IS SANDRA FLUKE COORDINATING WITH THE WHITE HOUSE?  "As The Daily Caller recently exposed, there's been a high level of coordination between the White House and Media Matters for America, so of course it's no shock that Ms. Fluke chose MMFA as her leftist propaganda arm of choice."

Tunnel Dweller on the road

Time to hit the road for Portage, Indiana and see family. As a result, posting may be a bit more sketchy and done as opportunity strikes. But post we will, so check in during the day, please. TD

OBAMA ALLY WON'T RELEASE ALINSKY TAPE

Hillary Clinton studied and 
has used the soul less tactics 
of Saul Alinsky to destroy 
political enemies.
Breitbart  "Mainstream journalists have attempted to dismiss yesterday's column by Andrew Breitbart about the play  by claiming that Obama had merely attended the production--a defense hinted at by Chicago Reader columnist Michael Miner's initial column
"However--as even Miner noted--Obama did not merely attend the play; he was featured on the poster and in the panel discussion that followed.
"So, if the play’s so harmless, why are Obama’s allies hiding it? 
"Why not release the video tape?"


Rules for Radicals text excerpt: 
Conflict is the essential core of a free and open society. If one were to project the democratic way of life in the form of a musical score, its major theme would be the harmony of dissonance.

Stirewalt: ‘If Romney Wins Tonight, White House Democrats Will Be Concerned’

FOX News Network  "Stirewalt believes Obama is trying to split the headline for tomorrow’s newspapers with the news about Mitt Romney on Super Tuesday.
"He thinks Americans need to realize that the sooner it ends on the Republican side of the presidential race, the sooner the future nominee starts fighting with President Obama, and he believes the Obama Administration is “extremely conscious of Mitt Romney.” "

Hey Mr. President. Where's my phone call?

reddogreport
Sally Zelikovsky   "I'm a daughter and a mother, but I didn't get one phone call  when I was called a mobster, a terrorist, a nazi, a tea bagger, a homophobe and a racist.  Where was the President when conservatives started protesting the bailouts, stimulus, jobs bill and ObamaCare and had their integrity and intellect attacked on every level?  Where was the phone call to Sarah Palin for being called a MILF or to Laura Ingraham for being called a slut?"
...."You might not want to judge Rush Limbaugh but your silence in regard to invectives hurled by Democrats and liberals at conservatives demonstrates your complicity in passing judgment on the rest of us as racist, homophobic, tea bagging neanderthals.  I'm waiting."

Aborting Hitler

Life News:  NYU; Margaret Sanger
Mike Adams   (From Judgment at Nuremberg) "After pausing for a moment, the condemned Nazi judge says of the millions of dead Jews, “Those millions of people. I never knew it would come to that.” Spencer Tracy, playing the American judge, responds with one of the most profound lines of his storied acting career saying, “It came to that the first time you sentenced a man to death you knew to be innocent.”"
...."That has been the story of the American Holocaust as well. It began in 1966 in my native state of Mississippi. Just two years after I was born, a law was passed that made it legal to abort in the case of rape or incest. But then, the very next year, Colorado passed legislation allowing abortion in cases of rape, incest, or threat to the health of the mother.
...."It is fitting that it all began in Mississippi. We have a legacy of executing innocents by denying their personhood. It happened with slavery. It happened again with abortion. Now we have learned to justify our own Holocaust. We didn’t need Hitler after all."

Rush Limbaugh compared to the civility of the liberals

Rick Moran: 'Their God keeps smashing them into little grease spots'
It was indeed uncivil for Rush Limbaugh to refer to Ms. Flake as a slut. He should follow the example of liberal radio show hosts like this one whose reasoned dialogue puts conservatives to shame.

RUSH LIMBAUGH EXPLAINS WHY HE APOLOGIZED: ‘IN FIGHTING THEM I BECAME LIKE THEM’

(Video) FLUKE SNUBS RUSH APOLOGY: 'READ MEDIA MATTERS   "I feel this issue is distracting us from the real issues.  The left has been able to spin religious freedom into birth control and somehow women's health.  Taking a pill that manipulates women's hormones is somehow healthy?  It is easy to get sucked in to this fringe issue.  Remember when George Stephanopoulos first injected this issue into the debate?  Remember how ridiculous he sounded?  Now, here we are taking the bait.  We are "battling" a very devious democrat machine.  People like this need to be ingnored and this story needs to go away."   From the comments to this article.


Alexa Shrugged:  Call Them Out By Name: Sandra Fluke, David Gregory and David Friend  "This is war.  I am going to defend Limbaugh from the radical Leftists who want to take him off the air.  And I am going to call out our opponents by name.  
"....Before they made the decision to pull their ads, Friend said that "the outcry over Limbaugh is the worst we’ve ever seen."  Well, Dittoheads, let's make the outcry over them dropping Limbaugh the worst they've ever seen!  Here is Carbonite's contact page, and be sure to Tweet them and Facebook them!"  (Some emphasis added)


 David Limbaugh:  Rush: At the Tip of Liberty's Spear   "What is a much bigger story is that the left's primary interest here is not in protecting Fluke -- in my humble opinion. Liberals are attempting to exploit this as another opportunity to destroy Rush through a calculated, organized Saul Alinsky-type community organizing campaign to pressure and intimidate his advertisers into discontinuing their sponsorship of his show.
"I am watching them operate on Twitter and other social networks, and their viciousness is palpable. They didn't want Rush's apology, which they absolutely refuse to accept. They want his scalp. And they've wanted his scalp for years because he is the most effective and influential spokesman for the conservative cause."
NRO: In Defense of Rush  "To Georgetown University’s president who found time in his busy schedule to publicly attack Rush.... how about acting like the leader of a Catholic university and telling the young woman that her public whining was an embarrassment to the university she claims to represent?"

Bozell Letter to CNN's Piers Morgan: Coverage of Limbaugh Apology Is a Double Standard   "And it’s not just CNN. Limbaugh has been singled out and condemned across the national media – ABC, CBS, NBC, CNBC, MSNBC, NPR, PBS, Associated Press, The New York Times, The Washington Post, the Los Angeles Times, and USA Today. How many of these outlets have condemned Bill Maher with equal vigor for his attacks on Palin? How many of these outlets condemned him at all? Ed Schultz called Laura Ingraham a “slut” on his radio show. MSNBC suspended him for a week, but none of Schultz’s advertisers dropped his show under media pressure. There was no pressure. Some of the same sponsors now pulling out of Rush’s show still support Schultz."


It’s just too bad Rush Limbaugh isn’t a member of the Democrat-media complex.  "This whole Sandra Fluke incident never would have seen the light of day.
"Here’s a video that shows just a few of the horrible misogynist attacks by left-wing heroes on conservative women… Women who did nothing to deserve the attacks other than to profess their conservatism and love for America."  Listen for the word "slut". We make no effort to censor the speech of these liberals because we want you to fully appreciate their vitriol and to know how they regard 50% of America's people.

 Algemeiner: On Iran and Obama, How Bibi will Decide – Exclusive Interview with Eyal Gabbai, Part 1
"Up until six months ago, Eyal Gabbai was the Director-General of Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu’s office. Working with the Prime Minister for up to 18 hours a day, he was a key member of Netanyahu’s inner circle."
Excerpts of the interview follow:

DE:  Do you think it’s possible that the Israelis will try something with Iran, and the Americans will actually try and prevent it once it’s actually happening?
EG: I don’t think so.
DE: They’ll just state their position until Israel acts, and then when it acts they will be supportive?
EG: I think they’ll urge Israel not to act, because they think it’s too early, and they’ll actually even, not threaten Israel, but certainly make it clear that there will be a price to pay if Israel doesn’t coordinate.
DE:  They want to know about it?
EG: Not just know; they want to be able to veto it.
But at the end of the day Netanyahu cannot let Obama veto the attack on Iran, and if the attack will take place – as always, the question will be the outcome.  Assuming that Israel was able to destroy everything forever, then I think we’ll get a lot of support from the United States.
DE:  Public support from Obama or just behind the scenes?
EG: No, both public and political figures and probably the President himself. On the other hand, if it will be a failure…..

and  Jews Look for Good News: Reaction to Obama at AIPAC
G. Murphy Donovan:  Barack Obama has never been to Israel   "American policy is, at once, a flawed assumption and a cultural insult. Granting Muslim stability a higher priority than Israeli survival is the assumption; and elevating Muslim culture to parity with Jews or Christians is the insult.  Moral equivalence is the problem, not the solution to epidemic political cowardice in the non-Muslim world. Israel has no good reasons, by virtue of history or evidence, to accept any American assurances, especially from an Obama administration."

The irony of Purim today:  God used Queen Esther to save the Jews from massacre by the now-Iranians.  "Purim is celebrated on the 14th day of Adar, which is usually in March. The 13th of Adar is the day that Haman chose for the extermination of the Jews, and the day that the Jews battled their enemies for their lives. On the day afterwards, the 14th, they celebrated their survival. In cities that were walled in the time of Joshua, Purim is celebrated on the 15th of the month, because the book of Esther says that in Shushan (a walled city), deliverance from the massacre was not complete until the next day. The 15th is referred to as Shushan Purim."

Breitbart's vetting of Obama begins

Big Government : THE VETTING, PART I: BARACK'S LOVE SONG TO ALINSKY
"Prior to his passing, Andrew Breitbart said that the mission of the Breitbart empire was to exemplify the free and fearless press that our Constitution protects--but which, increasingly, the mainstream media denies us."
"Andrew did not want to re-litigate the 2008 election. Nor did he want to let Republicans off the hook. Instead, he wanted to show that the media had failed in its most basic duty: to uncover the truth, and hold those in power accountable, regardless of party.
"From today through Election Day, November 6, 2012, we will vet this president--and his rivals.
"We begin with a column Andrew wrote last week in preparation for today’s Big relaunch--a story that should swing the first hammer against the glass wall the mainstream media has built around Barack Obama."

"Writing in the Chicago Reader, [Michael] Miner described the poster:"

...."And down at the very bottom, crawling across the poster in small print, it mentions the panel discussions that will follow the Sunday performances. The panelists are that era's usual "progressive" suspects: Leon Despres, Monsignor Jack Egan, Studs Terkel . . .And state senator Barack Obama.


"The reason that Obama's Alinskyite past, and his many appearances in political photography and video from the 1990s, are conspicuously missing from the national dialogue is that State Senator Barack Obama's reinvention as a reasonable and moderate Democratic politician could not withstand scrutiny of his political life. 
"Because the mainstream media did not explore his roots, the American public remains largely ignorant of the degree to which Obama’s work with ACORN and his love of Alinsky were symbolic of his true political will.
"If any of the candidates can resist the media, and parlay Newt’s strategy into a nomination, we’ll have the choice between an imperfect but well-known Republican and the real “Baraka” Obama, not the manufactured one the media prefers."

Obama, Iran and Israel



Premiering Today: 'Daylight: The story of Obama and Israel'   "At the same time, the Emergency Committee for Israel has released "Daylight: The story of Obama and Israel," a documentary on the U.S.-Israel relationship since the start of the Obama administration. Before you watch the president's speech, please look at this film which contrasts the president's rhetoric with his record."

Netanyahu Tells Obama ‘Israel Remains the Master of its Fate’ "President Obama and Benjamin Netanyahu began their meeting today with Obama reminding the Israeli prime minister about his speech to AIPAC and Netanyahu reminding Obama that Israel will still take whatever course of action it deems best."

Israel Hayom: Barak: A nuclear Iran will be unstoppable in a year   ()
"Now the president has to worry about the inconvenient timing of several possibilities with regards to Iran. The Iranians could complete their nuclear program before next November, meaning it occurred on his watch, a bad rap for the administration, similar to Truman being blamed for “losing China.” Or Israel could choose to act before November, based on its own estimate of Iran’s timing for its nuclear program. An Israeli attack would likely draw the U.S. into the conflict, and on the side of Israel, with negative implications for Obama’s Muslim outreach program, not to mention the risk of casualties and widespread destruction."


On Iran: More Policy, Less Politics  "This week we learned that a major component of American's Iran policy is "buying time." Consider what Vice President Joe Biden's national security adviser recently admitted, according to Haaretz:

U.S. policy on Iran is aimed at "buying time and continuing to move this problem into the future, and if you can do that - strange things can happen in the interim," Anthony Blinken, National Security Adviser to Vice President Biden and Deputy Assistant to the President for National Security Affairs, said on Monday.

North Korea tested Iranian warhead or “dirty bomb” in 2010 for $55m  "It now appears that Western intelligence has known about the North Korean tests for Iran for eleven months. Therefore, it is too late for him to try and persuade the Israeli prime minister that there is still time to spare for cutting short a nuclear Iran.

It was announced in Washington Monday that no joint American-Israeli communiqué would be issued at the end of their talks, meaning they will have agreed to disagree: Obama, to stand by his opposition to military action against Iran; Netanyahu, to decide what Israel must do in the interests of its security."
