Blood On The Hands Of The LEFT

From Canada; Howard Galganov ".... It didn’t happen because of the so-called gun culture, or because of poor security at the school. It happened because of the modern LEFTIST culture that has removed all semblances of personal responsibility and respect.
"It happened because of the Hollywood and television types who lecture the Conservatives on how people should live, while they make FORTUNES producing absolute FILTH in their movies and on television programs."
Much more at the link...


Howard Galganov was also discussed in Snopes.com They established that the quite interesting editorial appraisal of Barack Obama titled, "I Told You So – Yes I Did" was indeed by Mr. Galganov. In it, he wrote:

When Obama won the Presidency with the help of the LEFTIST Media, Hollywood and Entertainment Liberals, Ethnic Socialists (ACORN), Stupid Non-Business Professionals and Bush Haters, I wrote:
It won’t take 6 months until the people figure this guy out and realize how horrible a mistake they’ve made. And when they come to that realization, the damage to the United States of America will be so great, that it will take a generation or more to repair - IF EVER.
The IDIOTS who not only voted for the Messiah, but also worked their sorry asses-off to promote his Lordship, are now left holding the bag.

I'm sure he meant it all in a nice way, however.

 

About Mr. Galganov;  ...."As for my interest in the USA - As America goes . . . so goes the world.
"Also, it is incredibly painful for me to watch a member of our North American Family that has been so good to Canada and the rest of the world take such a beating at the hands of the LEFTIST Something-For-Nothing Bunch, that I can’t just sit back and watch without trying to do something.
"I will not hesitate to use my voice and writings if they can make a difference, because it’s the least one Member of a Family can do for another."

Obama's broken economy. Let's give him a third term!

 

 

Andrew Malcolm at IBD; Unemployment rate creeps back up, as Obama lays off his own jobs council   "With his last election almost three months behind, Obama need maintain the charade no longer.

" “It’s the inglorious end of a tragic and wasted affair on jobs,” said an outspoken council critic, Chris Townsend, who is not a Republican congressman. He's actually a political action operative for the United Electrical, Radio and Machine Workers of America."

Chuck Hagel's bad day. I hope this will not get President Obama upset with Republicans

Legal Insurrection; Ted Cruz’s not “bogus attack” on Hagel   "Cruz’s line of inquiry was not “bogus.” Israel went far out of its way to avoid civilian casualties and probably cost itself a military victory because of that, while Hezbollah fired rockets into civilian area for the purpose of hurting civilians.  That’s not a “bogus” distinction, it’s the core of Hagel’s misaligned view of the Middle East."

Hot Air; Unspinnable: White House “disappointed” in Hagel’s performance at hearing " If they’re willing to vote for a guy who believes idiocy like this, they’re not going to torpedo him for having a bad day at the microphone:"....

RealClearPolitics; Matthews On Hagel Hearing: "The Boiling Hatred Of The American Right Poured Over" What is it with Chris Matthews?

Democrats Say Hagel Will Be Confirmed   "...in fact, the hostile GOP questioning might have made Democrats even more united, or so the White House hopes and believes. And if that's the case, Hagel will have support from a majority of senators. So the question becomes: Do Republicans decide to mount a filibuster against Hagel?"

JustOneMinute posted this:
Hagel’s 7 Worst Moments in Round One  " Hagel once called the surge “most dangerous foreign policy blunder in this country since Vietnam.” Sen. John McCain (R., Ariz.) came ready Thursday, bombarding Hagel with a simple, repeated question: Did the Iraq surge work?" 

 

"Sen. Ted Cruz (R., Texas) lambasted Hagel over his 2009 interview with Al Jazeera where he agreed with a description of the United States as the “world’s bully.” "

Blackfive: Chuck Hagel- Wrong for so many reasons

Why do I refer to Blackfive? Because it is a soldier's blog and I want to include their view of liberals and the Obama administration.

"He showed a lack or preparation, a deficit of intellect and made a flailing, failing attempt to change every substantive policy statement he had made in his adult life. He showed he was fundamentally unsuited to be Secretary of Defense, due to a glaring lack of professional competence and holding foolish foreign policy positions. Sadly in this city, that may not be enough from stopping his confirmation."

"Here is an RNC edit of the most pitiful 80 seconds of Hagel..." 

Hagel's Senate confirmation hearing shocks supporters  "The big question about former Senator Chuck Hagel's nomination as Secretary of Defense used to be the content of views. Now, it is his competence. He embarrassed himself and those who have publicly backed his nomination, in particular Senators Chuck Schumer and Armed Services Committee chairman Carl Levin."

No matter. Hagel will merely be a puppet of Obama and whomever is guiding the president.

 

John Cornyn ; The Case against Hagel  "Whether or not Chuck Hagel is confirmed as our next defense secretary, his nomination has already done serious damage to U.S. credibility on Iran, thereby emboldening the most dangerous regime in the Middle East. To limit the damage, President Obama should choose someone else to lead the Pentagon" 

Wards of the State

Bruce Thornton  "Yet, as Nicholas Eberstadt documents in this brief but powerful book, if left unreformed, our metastasizing entitlements will continue to corrupt not only our economy, but also our national character itself. Eberstadt, a political economist and fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, has written extensively on economic development, foreign aid, global health, demographics, and poverty. His latest work, A Nation of Takers, combines his international experience and economic knowledge into a relentless, fact-based argument for reforming entitlement spending."

Obamedia as of February 1, 2013

 

 

Obama Operatives Training Media How to Sell Obamacare  "To achieve that goal, Obama operatives are setting up propaganda symposiums for journalists and giving large cash donations to journalism associations to help spread Obama's word.

"This Obamacare propaganda campaign seriously blurs the line between government and "journalism" and seems to be a blatant attempt by team Obama to write the media's Obamacare stories for them."

Hagel Hearing: MSNBC's Scarborough So Contemptuous Of Ted Cruz, Won't Mention Him By Name  "Sure, Chuck Hagel might have been a bumbling, stumbling mess at his confirmation hearing yesterday.  But the real story was how awful were the Republicans who questioned him.  That was the collective judgment of today's Morning Joe panel."

Cal Thomas Column: '60 Minutes'' Missed Opportunity  "In the days of the late Mike Wallace, "60 Minutes" was known for hard-hitting, aggressive journalism that asked the questions viewers wanted answered and held the powerful accountable."
...."Politicians go on shows that won't confront them with hard questions they don't want to answer. If those questions are asked, they'll likely not appear on those shows again. The media need ratings and to get them they need high-profile guests. Politicians know this. That's the unholy alliance between much of big media and political leaders."

Armed guard disarms teen in school shooting

WND;  'The obvious question is how did this get past a metal detector?'


 "(AP) Atlanta • A student opened fire at his middle school Thursday afternoon, wounding a 14-year-old in the neck before an armed officer (An off-duty Atlanta police officer) working at the school was able to get the gun away, police said.
"Multiple shots were fired in the courtyard of Price Middle School just south of downtown around 1:50 p.m. and the one boy was hit, Atlanta Police Chief George Turner said. In the aftermath, a teacher received minor cuts, he said.
"The wounded boy was taken “alert, conscious and breathing” to Grady Memorial Hospital, said police spokesman Carlos Campos. He was expected to be released Thursday night."

Mother says assailant was 'talking smack' to victim 

Holy Cow---Hagel Was EMBARRASSING!

Yid With Lid    "Regular readers of this site know that I have not been in favor of former Senator Chuck Hagel's nomination---but even his biggest detractors did not expect the performance he gave today during his senate confirmation hearings.   It wasn't that he said things that people disagreed with, or got caught with some sort of scandal--he looked totally unprepared and out-classed. He was pathetic.
"The guy knew what he would face...his own statements and record, many of them were posted here. Chuck Hagel had weeks to figure out responses--and OH MY G--, he didn't even understand what containment means."
The full text of this post is even more interesting

....
"If you asked me this morning if Hagel would be confirmed by the Senate, despite my objections to his nomination I would have answered in the affirmative. After today's embarrassing display there is a legitimate chance he may be blocked or even have his name withdrawn before this process is over."

Obamabot Singer Beyonce Admits She Lip Synced National Anthem At Inauguration, Blames Her Unwavering Devotion To Dear Leader…

Weasel Zippers "NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Beyonce says she did lip sync when she performed the national anthem on Inauguration Day.
"The singer held a press conference Thursday in New Orleans days ahead of her half-time performance at the Super Bowl.
"She said she’s a “perfectionist” and wanted her performance for President Barack Obama to be a memorable one. She called the day “emotional.”"

Paving over History; This would fit the Obama pattern, wouldn't you say? But MMFA says the story is ridiculous.

If a sinkhole forms under the Obama library, he can honestly say he inherited this problem from a Republican.

Jeannie DeAngelis "In 1970, Joni Mitchell's song Big Yellow Taxi was a huge hit. Forty-two years later, it is rumored* that the University of Chicago wants to raze Ronald Reagan's childhood home to clear the way for Obama's future presidential library, which brings to mind the lyrics "[t]hey paved paradise and put up a parking lot." 
...."The controversy over the location of the future archive started when Michelle Obama's former employer, the University of Chicago Medical Center, disclosed potential plans to turn Ronald Reagan's childhood home in Chicago into a parking lot for President Barack Obama's Presidential Library.  That was when it became clear that liberals will not rest until every vestige of conservatism is purged both figuratively and literally from the national consciousness and progressivism is all that remains."

* emphasis mine, TD

Media Matters disagrees emphatically; Conservative Media Manufacture Ridiculous Claim That Obama Is Destroying "Reagan's Childhood Home"
"The "childhood home" is an apartment Reagan lived in for less than a year as a young child, and its planned demolition is part of an expansion by the University of Chicago that has nothing to do with President Obama's presidential library. Obama hasn't chosen which state his presidential library will eventually be in, let alone where people will need to park for it. Further, Obama Press Secretary Jay Carney has declared the story "false." "

From our "Bureaucrats Gone Wild" file: Couple Faces Jail Time for Saving Baby Deer’s Life (VIDEO)

Update:

The Foundry via Overcriminalized.com   "An Indiana couple is facing up to 60 days in jail and $2,000 in fines for saving a deer from death. Jeff Counceller, a police officer, and his wife Jennifer spotted an injured baby deer on their neighbor’s porch. Instead of turning a blind eye to the dying fawn, the Councellers took the deer in and nursed it back to health.
"They kept the deer, Little Orphan Dani, in their backyard as it recovered. Everything was fine until an Indiana Conservation Officer spotted Little Orphan Dani in the Councellers’ yard. The Councellers were charged with unlawful possession of a deer, a misdemeanor offense." 

For all of us, but especially for our low-information voters: Bret Baier Checks President's Deficit Reduction Math with Doug Holtz-Eakin

This played on Special Report some days ago, but we need to be aware of its content, especially for those of us who get glassy-eyed at budget discussions.

American Action Forum  "AAF President and former CBO Director Douglas Holtz-Eakin checked the math on the deficit reduction President Obama claimed to have already made in yesterday’s press conference. Watch the segment here for a step-by-step look at the budget gimmicks in play. You can also see the Eakinomics video referenced in the segment here." 

Last September, Holtz-Eakin gave this assessment of Bill Clinton's convention speech on Obama's economic policies. Remember Clinton is a Democrat politician, not an economist. I'm just sayin'.

 Analyzing the Clinton-Obama ‘Arithmetic’

"Bill Clinton provided a full-throated defense of President Obama’s economic and fiscal policies, the main ingredient of which is red ink. Unfortunately, the defense is built on claims that cannot be reconciled with the facts. It’s arithmetic."
Douglas Holtz-Eakin has a distinguished record as an academic, policy adviser, and strategist. Currently he is the President of the American Action Forum and most recently was a Commissioner on the Congressionally-chartered Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission.
