Race Card Abusers For the Week of Jan 22-28

Nice Deb

...."Anybody who criticizes Obama on this or that issue is a racist. Anyone who shows disrespect (real or imagined) is a racist. If you think he’s a Socialist, you’re a racist. This is all they’ve got to stem the flow of criticism coming at  Dear Leader as our economy, (which should be roaring by now),  barely limps along, hamstrung by his policies, and about to make a turn for the worse."
.... "An MSNBC* news anchor actually argued that the famous photo of Brewer pointing her finger at Obama  reminded her of an ugly anti-integration incident during the civil rights era, when  nine black students trying to enter the school surrounded by an angry (Democrat) mob."

Jeannie DeAngelis:  'Menacing' Barack Bullies Jan Brewer  "The difference is obvious when compared to the way the left reacted to Hillary Clinton being approached on a fully-lit stage in front of hundreds of people who heard every word Rick Lazio said. Now, rather than defend a pint-sized woman's claim that she was verbally smacked down by a powerful man historically known to be "thin-skinned," the left is more than willing to abandon their usual condemnation of perceived sexist aggression toward women and side with a hypersensitive bully merely because he's a liberal."

Photocopy of Gov. Brewer's letter to President Obama


HuffPo: Jan Brewer Releases Copy Of Letter She Handed President Obama  "She continues,

 "We both love this great country, but we fundamentally disagree on how to best make America grow and prosper once again. I'd love an opportunity to share with you how we've been able to turn Arizona around with hard choices that turned out to be the right ones. And, of course, my offer to visit the border -- and buy lunch -- still stands."

Elizabeth Warren- Whose Wealth is Eight Figures- Suggests She's Not In The 1%

BuzzFeed  " “I realize there are some wealthy individuals – I’m not one of them, but some wealthy individuals who have a lot of stock portfolios" she told him.
"Hard to see how Warren wouldn't be, by most standards, wealthy, according to the Personal Financial Disclosure form she filed to run for Senate shows that she's worth as much as $14.5 million. She earned more than $429,000 from Harvard last year alone for a total of about $700,000, and lives in a house worth $5 million."

How Obama got this way

Howard Zinn's Biased History; who wrote the history textbooks that you and your children learned from?

George Mason University's  History News Network
"Through Zinn’s looking-glass, Maoist China, site of history’s bloodiest state-sponsored killings, becomes “the closest thing, in the long history of that ancient country, to a people’s government, independent of outside control.” The authoritarian Nicaraguan Sandinistas were “welcomed” by their own people, while the opposition Contras, who backed the candidate that triumphed when free elections were finally held, were a “terrorist group” that “seemed to have no popular support inside Nicaragua.” Castro’s Cuba, readers learn, “had no bloody record of suppression.” "
....
"Thumb through A People’s History of the United States and you will find greed as the motivating factor behind every act of those who don’t qualify as “the people” in Zinn’s book. According to Zinn, the separation from Great Britain, the Civil War, and both World Wars all were the result of base motives of the “ruling class” -- rich men to get richer at the expense of others.
....
" Howard Zinn is a master of cheap Marxist propaganda. His book is a dagger aimed at the heart [of] the country that has given him more freedom than most of the writers who have ever written and made him a millionaire in the process."

Daniel J. Flynn  is the executive director of Accuracy in Academia and author of the newly released, Why the Left Hates America: Exposing the Lies That Have Obscured Our Nation’s Greatness.

Obama's Georgia Hearing Blow By Blow

SilenceDogood2010's Blog  "Update – “Judge Malihi was “Prepared” to enter a default judgment but that would have been without any testimony being heard. We had to get the testimony in the courts records so the offer of a default was refused and the case proceeded, without a Defense council presentation. Now we will await his ruling on this and the various motions submitted by the Plaintiffs.” (via Carl Swensson)

"THE JUDGE HAS STATED HE WILL BE FORMALIZING HIS VERDICT BY FEBRUARY 5TH.

"The Georgia Secretary of State has already stated that he will follow the Judges Recommendations."

The Brewer-Barry Show

Rick Moran:  Obama and AZ Governor Brewer have words (updated)   

http://www.gocomics.com/jeffdanziger

"This was the offending passage in the book that apparently got Obama so riled up that he walked away from Brewer while she was in mid-sentence:

"It was [as] though President Obama thought he could lecture me, and I would learn at his knee," she wrote, according to Capitol Media Services. "He thinks he can humor me and then get rid of me."

"It's not like we haven't heard that before from others who have met with the president. He lectures to the American people all the time, why not in private?

"As far as criticisms of Obama goes, it is milquetoast. That it would set the president of the United States off is indicative of a thin skin - far thinner than a politician should be expected to have, especially the president. And the fact that the president chose a public venue to defend himself from a personal - not political or policy - criticism is just plain weird."

Mollie Hemingway: Obama: Do Not Criticize Me. Ever.  Quoting Gov. Bobby Jindal who discusses a similar encounter with Obama:

....The letter was rudimentary, bureaucratic, and ordinary. .  .  . We were simply asking the federal government to authorize food stamps for those who were now unemployed because of the oil spill. Governors regularly make these sorts of requests to the federal government when facing disaster.But somehow, for some reason, President Obama had personalized this. And he was upset.There was not a word about the oil spill. He was concerned about looking bad because of the letter. “Careful,” he said to me, “this is going to get bad for everyone.”

Goldberg and Krauthammer: The SOTU; The president plays small ball

Charles Krauthammer:  "What Obama offered the nation Tuesday night was a pudding without a theme: a jumble of disconnected initiatives, a gaggle of intrusive new agencies and a whole new generation of loopholes to further corrupt a tax code that screams out for reform.

"If the Republicans can’t beat that in November, they should try another line of work."

Jonah Goldberg:  The president thinks America would be better if it was no longer America.  "President Obama’s State of the Union address was disgusting."

Boortz: "The heaviness of this decision is truly starting to sink in"  "Finally, after all this time, someone launched a concerted and effective attack against Mitt Romney and RomneyCare. And that person was Rick Santorum. He held Romney’s feet to the fire on the issue in a way that he could expect from Obama if he is the nominee."

American Thinker: Jacksonville debate: Santorum; Romney up; Newt down; Paul remarkably fit for his age  "Last night's debate in Jacksonville featured a more aggressive Mitt Romney, who appears to have benefitted from debate coaching, a somewhat tired-looking Newt Gingrich, a sprightly Ron Paul, and Rick Santorum getting much more attention than usual."

Peter Wehner:  A Good Night for Conservative Principles   "This is a wonderful articulation of America’s founding principle and a nice corrective to those conservatives who tend to focus only on the Constitution at the expense of the document (the Declaration of Independence) that dealt a crushing philosophical blow to tyranny and despotism."


 Jay Nordlinger The GOP Quartet, Once More    Running commentary while watching the debate Thursday

Our enemies are better students of our military than is Obama

Morning Bell: A Slashed and Burned Military  "Meanwhile, America’s enemies are watching. They can count our troops, our planes, and our ships. They can look on as America’s military retreats and loses its ability to project forces around the world. And they will quickly realize that the United States will not be able to cover its responsibilities worldwide. That is an invitation for the sort of security threats America cannot afford — and they are threats that America may not be able to respond to with its stripped-down military."


And you can be sure, the next president who has to deal with some threat that requires a build-up will be the target of liberal (Democrat) demagoguery and the resultant #occupations of you-name-it.


WSJ: Panetta Outlines Pentagon Cutbacks  "The cuts also would slow procurement of the advanced F-35 stealth jet and reduce the Defense Department's purchase of commercial-satellite imagery. The Navy would retire seven of its cruisers early, and the Air Force would take some of its aging C-130 transport planes out of service and halt purchases of one version of the Global Hawk surveillance drone—in favor of keeping the aging U-2 high-altitude spy plane flying."

Blackfive: THE DEFENSE BUDGET  "Or said another way, the administration has decided that it will attempt to cut spending primarily with cuts to national defense.  There is no serious program afoot to cut back the myriad of other government agencies and branches.  In fact, many are expanding (see EPA, IRS, etc.)."
Paraphrasing Sen. Carl Levin: “we’re more than willing to hold national security hostage and see it gutted to get our way on taxes”.

Over all this hangs the question: Will Iran Really Start a War? "The common theme of these modern examples of unforeseen preemptive wars is clear enough: empty, even foolhardy threats of war are not always so empty. The Korean War, the Yom Kippur War, the Falklands War, and the First Gulf War all share a variety of commonalities that are relevant to the ongoing tension with Iran — aside from the fact that these invasions eventually proved costly for the aggressors."  Victor Davis Hanson


The Foreign Policy Initiative:  Obama seems to lack an appreciation of America's unique role in the world, says FPI Executive Director Jamie Fly  "Although voters in 2012 will be focused primarily on the state of the economy, they should consider who is best suited to defend the country and advance America's interests as commander chief when choosing whether to reelect Obama or bring in a new president.

Ramirez, Beeler on Obama’s class warfare

"Sometimes, it doesn’t even really take a breaking-news hook to appreciate Michael Ramirez.  The two-time Pultizer Prize winning editorial cartoonist sums up Barack Obama’s class warfare strategy perfectly in one image from the day before Obama’s State of the Union speech (via Power Line):"
