Our little occupiers;Tuesday and Wednesday

Neal Boortz: Obama's children sent home to mama  "These were children – representatives of the self-esteem movement in our government schools – who bought in its entirety the Obama campaign against achievers and capitalism. Obama rants against the evil 1% who are most certainly not paying their fair share in taxes (yeah, right) and his children take up the “we are the 99%” chant on the streets. Obama rails against corporations, and the occupy movement becomes stringently anti-business and especially anti-corporate. These occupiers were a daily reminder of the division that has been brought about by Obama’s class warfare rhetoric and reelection blueprint. We’re going to miss them. Then again – somewhere in NY there is a city worker that won’t have to scrape poop off of police cars today."

More Boortz: Occutards costing small business  "According to the New York Post, since the Occupy Wall Street movement began in Zuccotti Park on September 17, protestors have cost surrounding businesses $479,400. Local jewelry shops, restaurants, and beauty salons complain that aggressive signs and reports of violence have dissuaded patrons from visiting their establishments – essentially driving struggling small companies out of business…"  Snopes has this on Zucotti Park.

Mr. Boortz referred us to this Michelle Malkin post: Live from New York…It’s Operation Monday Night Un-Occupy Zuccotti Park; at least 25 reported arrests; “They’re throwing and breaking everything!”; dump trucks and tear gas rumors; the “People’s Kitchen” is closed; they’ll be back; ACLU-tied judge ordered off case;

The same loons who shout “F**k the Police” are now screaming “WE LOVE YOUUUUUUU!!!!”
Occupier whines: “They’re throwing and breaking everything!” Ranting about 60 days of “work” going to waste.
Karma.
NYC has sent in a sanitation truck. Occupiers shriek in horror. Like garlic to vampires:

Occupy Protesters Cut Through Fence on Church’s Lot — Cops Pour in and Make Arrests
"The church, which has been supportive of the protests thus far, became aware of the event (located not at the church but at a separate location) at the same time media reported on it, indicating that it wasn‘t approved by Trinity’s leaders."

The Boorish Liberal at Thanksgiving Dinner; Belladonna Rogers and Ann Coulter offer advice

Advice Columnist Belladonna Rogers  Q: "During Thanksgiving dinner in 2009, my brother asked what I thought of Obama’s stimulus package. I knew we’d disagree bitterly, so I tried avoiding an answer. He persisted like a bulldog until I said I was against it. My wife and I gave specific, fact-based reasons we opposed it. He, his wife and grown children all piled onto my wife and me, trotting out all the liberal bromides against anyone who differs.
"The following morning when we visited for breakfast, we were shocked to see he’d posted a new magnet, one that hadn’t been there the night before, front and center on his fridge door:"

"Our mother’s now 85, and in very fragile health, and I don’t want another pitched battle when my brother asks me which candidate I support. I can’t refuse to go because it means so much to our mother to be with both her sons.

"What to do?"

-------------------------

A:  "Just in case, though, I suggest arriving at your brother’s house with a few of your own favorite fridge magnets to leave behind as thoughtful gifts if, despite your efforts, your brother is unable to attain maturity by November 24."....

"80 mph, and going for broke: “My wife and I drive almost 1,000 miles to be insulted by you and your family. Your boorish, intolerant behavior has been on full display the past two Thanksgivings. If you mention even one word about politics at the table, my wife and I will excuse ourselves politely, and won’t return. We’ll take Mom out to lunch the following day and enjoy some quiet time with her. I refuse to engage in your agenda again. You’ll have to find another conservative to bash. It won’t be as much fun as haranguing your older brother, but it will have to suffice. Maybe you’d drive that far for a pointless argument, but I won’t.”"....

"I hope one — or, if absolutely necessary, all — of these approaches to your brother will result in a happier holiday for you, your wife, and your entire family.
— Belladonna Rogers"

Ann Coulter: Book Excerpt: 'How to Talk to a Liberal'  "At a loss whenever anyone argues back, liberals have a number of stratagems to prevent conservatives from talking. They shout conservatives down; unplug reporters' microphones; edit conservatives' answers in pretaped TV shows (Hardball) to make the conservative look like a monkey; burn student newspapers; and heckle conservative speakers. When John Stossel went to Brown University for a report on "date rape," he was mobbed by angry protesters chanting, "Rape is not TV hype!" — and then his microphone cord was unplugged by an angry student. College dropout Michael Moore put a microphone in Republican Congressman Mark Kennedy's face and asked for his help in getting more members of Congress to send their own family members to fight the war on terror. Kennedy replied that he would love to and that he already had two nephews in the military, one on his way to Afghanistan. Moore's documentary shows Kennedy's image — but cuts his answer from the film."

How ironic, then to check the word "demagogy"/ "demagoguery" at Wikipedia and see that the only socialist mentioned is Hitler. TD

Alan Caruba: Iran's Nuclear Armageddon

Warning Signs   "I have absolutely no confidence in Obama when it comes to the preemptive action that must be taken against Iran’s nuclear and military facilities in order to end a threat that even the President acknowledged in a recent Hawaii press conference would be directed not just at Israel, but at the United States as well."....

"The failure of the U.S. to develop its own extensive oil reserves will prove to be a massive strategic error. The delay of a proposed Canadian oil pipeline to deliver oil to the U.S. is just one small element of this failure."....

"An Iranian newspaper referred to the American agenda on July 20 this way: ‘The Obama administration is prepared to accept the prospect of a nuclear-armed Iran…they have no long-term plan for dealing with Iran. Their strategy consists of begging us to talk to them.”" 

It was true in Lincoln's day as it is today; Democrats will sell this nation down the river if it keeps them in power. But power over what?

The fundamental change that came to America with Obama is finally becoming frighteningly apparent. TD.

March 27, 2009,  Kerby Anderson: Iranian Threat  "Consider the words of the current president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. On October 26, 2005 he said: "God willing, with the force of God behind it, we shall soon experience a world without the United States and Zionism."" 
How Mein Kampfish can you get?
Hitler wrote it, he did it and the world paid a terrible price for it all because free countries were afraid of the anti-war pacifists (I wanted to get both those terms into my comment so there would be no mistake as to whom I was referring).

Raymond Ibrahim: Islam's Predictability: Apostasy, Execution, and Lies  "Even Islamist organizations, including al Qaeda, while regularly pontificating to fellow Muslims about how Islam demands the subjugation of non-Muslims — simply because they are infidels — always back-peddle when communicating with the West, opting instead to use language and paradigms that comport with Western sensibilities.
"It is in this manner that many in the West have come to believe Islam's nonstop aggression around the globe is a byproduct of "grievances," of "Zionism," of US "foreign policy," of anything and everything, not Islam."

From TheReligionofPeace.com : What does the Religion of Peace Teach About....Lying?  "There are two forms of lying to non-believers that are permitted under certain circumstances, taqiyya and kitman. These circumstances are typically those that advance the cause Islam - in some cases by gaining the trust of non-believers in order to draw out their vulnerability and defeat them. "

From barenakedislam : Obama Regime is concerned that Israel will NOT warn them if it decides to attack Iran. Obama orders enhanced spying on Israel.

"In Mr Netanyahu’s eyes, Iran’s president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, is another “Hitler” whose aim is to complete what the Holocaust failed to do by wiping out the Jewish race.
"“People outside Israel don’t understand how profound memories of the Holocaust are, and how they affect future policy making,” said Mr Bergman, the military analyst. “At the end of the day, this policy of ‘never again’ would dictate Israel’s behaviour when intelligence comes through that Iran has come close to a bomb.” "

"It isn't Islamophobia when they really ARE trying to kill you."

Lazy Americans!

Christian Baker Faces Boycott For Refusing to Make Lesbian Cake

Todd Starnes  of Fox News  "Pro-gay activists have launched a boycott of an Iowa baker who declined to create a wedding cake for a lesbian couple based on her religious beliefs.
"Victoria Childress, the owner of Victoria’s Cake Cottage in Des Moines  , has been accused of being anti-gay, homophobic, and a bigot after she refused to make a cake for Trina Vodraska and Janelle Sievers."

In a First, The Guardian Mentions Scott Olsen’s Anti-Military Website

Olsen

Verum Serum  "After we broke the story on Scott Olsen’s ihatethemarinecorps.com website, the media continued to portray him as simply an award winning veteran. We argued at the time that if his medals and honors were worth mentioning in news stories on his injury, so was his expressed hatred for the military in which he’d served.
"To say this was not well received would be putting it mildly."
 More on Scott Olsen at this page, including related links. 

Scott Olsen: A Disgrace to the Corps  "Apparently his loathing of the Corps did not begin after discharge. He clearly showed his contempt of the Corps while still enlisted. Photographs of him sitting amid marijuana and smoking paraphernalia are on his Flickr account where he proudly states the following (exact quote including typos and grammatical errors):“

I was talking to my 1stsgt regarding a pending adsep since I had been accused of using cocaine. Anyway, when we were done talking, he used as a parting greeting “stay marine”. He clearly didn’t think that one through. It was no secret that I couldn’t wait to get out and on top of that, the MC was trying to kick me out. I was going to bust his balls over it, but I went and took a nap instead.”

...."But what I will not do is silently stand aside and have this person presented to the American people as a hero or as an Honorable Marine."  From milpages

#OWS Claims US Marines Are Joining Their Ranks (Video)

Being from a military family, I know of no one in the service who would stoop so low to disgrace themselves. I can speak for family members and friends in or out of Air Force, Army Airborne, Marines, and Coast Guard. How many of these so called protesters have an honorable discharge?    From Meg, in the comments to this post at Gateway Pundit

TW chose this photo above of Olsen instead of the one of him in his uniform out of compassion for Olsen. We felt he would want to be remembered as the protesting civilian rather than the Marine that he was so ashamed of being. We save photos of Marines in uniform only for those warriors of whom we are proud.
Forgive me; it was so intolerant of me to say that.

With friends like these...

Caroline Glick  "THERE WAS never any chance for peace because the Palestinians have no interest in making peace with Israel. As the West's favorite Palestinian "moderate," Fatah leader and Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas said in an interview with Egypt's Dream TV on October 23, "I've said it before and I'll say it again. I will never recognize the 'Jewishness' of the State [of Israel] or a 'Jewish state.'" That is, Abbas will never make peace with Israel."

Occupy this

#Occupy gives a whole new meaning to the word "squatters"
Comment of the Day: Occupy Seattle Protestor Takes a Dump on the Sidewalk (VIDEO)  "Today's Comment of the Day winner shares a video that we sort of wish didn't exist. It's not so much we wish the video didn't exist as the thing that happens in it didn't exist." Gross content and language.  From Gateway Pundit, who worded their title this way: Gross. Obama-Endorsed Occupy Seattle Protester Takes Crap on Sidewalk   

More Obama fingerprints on this entire movement: WTF? Van Jones “A Seamless Web of Repression from Oakland to Baghdad”"I actually think Van Jones is sort of a smart, eloquent guy. But what the hell is he talking about? Occupiers have been camping out in public parks in violations of city ordinances, without permits for weeks. Police have stepped in, mostly, in the wake of drug overdoses, rapes, assaults and even one murder (in Oakland)."
Via Verum Serum, which has more here. And here.

Sfc Billy Honey's message for Occupiers
"Finally, someone tells these kids what they need to hear in a way they can understand.
"It makes perfect sense that it would take a Sergeant First Class to lay it out so clearly for a bunch of recent recruits to a cause very different from the nation's defense.
"Way to go, Sarge!"

Occutard weekend update  "Another weekend has passed, and what are the Occutards up to?  More of what they do best "....
"In summary, take a moment to watch this video. Barack Obama says that these Occupiers are in some ways similar to the tea party. After watching that video, Obama may beg to differ."

Obama Unbound; The paradoxes of presidential politics give him complete freedom abroad.

Victor Davis Hanson    "In terms of the Obama presidency, there is now no anti-war movement. It simply vanished in January 2009. Former outrages like Guantanamo, renditions, and Predator-drone assassinations almost magically became A-okay. The left-wing base dared not continue its old Bush slurs, given its support for Obama’s liberal domestic agenda. Quiet conservatives were perplexed over whether to be outraged that Predator-in-Chief Obama proved to be such an abject hypocrite, or relieved that, better late than never, he had morphed into a Bush-Cheney national-security disciple.
"The result is that for the next year or so, Obama can more or less do whatever he wishes abroad. If he chooses to bomb a country that poses no direct threat to the U.S. without congressional authority, like Libya, or to assassinate a U.S. citizen-terrorist, like Anwar al-Awlaki, the Left will keep mum. And the Right, for different reasons, probably will, too.
"What, then, should we expect abroad in the waning months of Obama’s four-year term, with continuing economic bad news at home?"

Obama's Hawaii press conference with his slobbering sycophants

CNN's shame: CNN WH Correspondent Asks Obama if GOP Candidates Are 'Uninformed, Out of Touch, or Irresponsible'
"Remember during 2008's Democratic primaries when Saturday Night Live did a hilarious sketch mocking a CNN debate as being a disgraceful suck-up to then presidential candidate Barack Obama?
"A repeat of this happened in real life Sunday evening when during a press conference from the APEC summit in Hawaii, CNN White House correspondent Dan Lothian actually asked the President if the GOP candidates were "uninformed, out of touch, or irresponsible" "
Go here for this classic video

"After thinking a second – probably wondering how fortunate he is to have such an unapologetic shill in the audience – Obama responded, “That’s a multiple choice question, isn’t it?”

"And this is the type of hard-nosed journalist the supposedly most trusted name in news has as a White House correspondent."

White House Dossier:  Obama Thrown Softballs in Hawaii Presser  "I like and respect most of my colleagues in the White House press corps. But they can do a lot better than this. The press conference was a case study in why so many people think the press is irretrievably in love with Obama.
"Let’s start with CNN’s Dan Lothian. He wanted to know from Obama, essentially, whether Republican were just idiots, or if they were in fact big idiots."....
"Next batter up was Norah O’Donnell of CBS, who offered Obama an opportunity to swat away Mitt Romney’s accusation that Obama is soft on Iran."....
"Julianna Goldman of Bloomberg wanted to know if Republican “rhetoric or posturing” was interfering with Obama’s Asia policy."....
"Laura Meckler of the Wall Street Journal wasted a rare opportunity to question the president with an inquiry about Hawaiian shirts."....
"Most members of the Washington press corps wonder why they are criticized for going easy on Obama or even favoring him.
"This is why."

Why is there no shame coming from true journalists, assuming they are still out there?

How President Obama Killed Thousands of Jobs

Heritage  "If Americans needed any further proof that the Obama Administration is one of the most political on record, or that, for all the recent demagoguing, it really cares only about re-election, not about job creation, then you need look no further than its cynical Keystone XL oil pipeline decision last week.
"Over the last several months, radical environmentalists along with Hollywood celebrity activists descended on the White House in protest, urging President Barack Obama to block the construction of the $7 billion pipeline that would bring in more than 700,000 barrels of oil per day from Alberta, Canada, to the Texas Gulf coast. Last week, they got their wish."

Pro and con on the Cain issue

Mona Charen: Booing the Character Issue  "The ghost of Bill Clinton haunts the Cain campaign in other respects as well. After Ms. Bialek’s press conference, the Cain campaign released a slashing attack on Bialek, itemizing personal bankruptcies, custody battles, and other problems. It wasn’t quite James Carville on Paula Jones (“If you drag a dollar bill through a trailer park . . . ) but it wasn’t uplifting either.
"Ms. Bartiromo asked a perfectly appropriate question. Character still matters."

Michelle Malkin:  David Gregory: No ‘Grand Wizard’ in the GOP Right Now Who Can Force Herman Cain Out; Update: Gregory Apologizes  (video)  "Update: David Gregory apologized for the “very poor choice of words” this morning via Twitter."

Victor Davis Hanson: From Herman Cain to Blue Wall Street—the News Behind the News
"Is Cain a serial womanizer like the Bill Clinton, Ted Kennedy or Newt Gingrich of yesterday? But if so, do we have any proof that he, Berlusconi-style, consummated a number of relationships? Have any women yet come forward claiming to be girlfriends or mistresses? And if some do, does that disqualify Cain in the manner that it did not disqualify FDR, JFK, LBJ, or Bill Clinton? Or have things changed in this age?"

Newsbusters: CNN's Blitzer Lets Debbie Wasserman Schultz Insist on Cain Disclosure, Forgets She Wanted Weiner Left Alone    "Then Wolf Blitzer allowed her to unload a wagon of talking points against the entire GOP field for 66 seconds. When he then asked if she believed Cain or his accusers, she insisted “I think Herman Cain needs to come clean and address them and say far more than he’s said already.”
"Mediaite and CNN have short memories, since Wasserman Schultz embarrassed herself back in June by insisting Anthony Weiner didn't have to share anything with the public...other than the bulge pictures he'd already posted on Twitter. Blitzer should have remembered -- since she refused to offer a Weiner opinion on CNN, as Blitzer repeatedly asked for one:" More...
