Michelle Obama Booed at NASCAR Event

White House Dossier  "They really have no idea at the White House – the intensity of the unhappiness among some groups with this president.
"I think people saw Mrs. Obama’s appearance for what it was – an attempt to ingratiate herself and her husband with an critical voter demographic. And she’s using her initiative to help soldiers families – which was part of her rebranding as first lady – to do it, adding to the disgust."


Rush Limbaugh transcript:  "Why would people boo the first lady? The media can't believe it. But I can. People don't like be told they're lousy parents, and Mrs. Obama has done that. People resent Mrs. Obama's bizarre need to tell us what to eat and how much to exercise. She also has, let's not forget her husband, Mrs. Obama has a husband that runs around and apologizes for this country that he was elected to lead. Australia the latest example. He went over there and basically apologized for the worthlessness of American students. I'm also pretty sure this crowd is not eager to go out and buy a car that you have to plug in in order to drive."

Regrettable, yes and thoughtless, but so was this:

Krauthammer: The great pipeline sellout

Charles Krauthammer  "Sure, the pipeline would have produced thousands of truly shovel-ready jobs. Sure, delay could forfeit to China a supremely important strategic asset — a nearby, highly reliable source of energy. But approval was calculated to be a political loss for the president. Easy choice.
"It’s hard to think of a more clear-cut case of putting politics over nation. This from a president whose central campaign theme is that Republicans put party over nation, sacrificing country to crass political ends.
"Nor is this the first time Obama’s election calendar trumped the national interest:" More here....

Troop's message to the #occupiers

Plus this: OWS LENIN SPEAKS - HIS BOLSHEVIK RED GUARDS LISTEN "Van Jones offered a prediction Wednesday for those who have been watching the Occupy Wall Street movement: “You haven’t seen anything yet.”
The former Obama administration “green jobs czar” — an ardent supporter of the Occupy movement since its inception — said in an interview with CNN that the movement is ready to evolve into the areas of politics and policy-making, much like the Tea Party did in 2010."

You voted for Obama- this is what you got, multiplied.

Obama's foreign policy

James Carafano: Debating Obama's foreign policy doctrine  "During the Nov. 22 debate at Constitution Hall, televised nationally by CNN, the eight Republicans who would be commander in chief will have a chance to convince Americans to think differently.
"The entire 90-minute program will be dedicated to foreign policy and national security issues."....
"A second defining characteristic of Obama-style foreign policy is that everything gets filtered through a domestic political lens. Policies in Afghanistan and Iraq are a case in point.
"There is no serious strategic logic for disengaging other than boosting the president's popularity with his base. The problem is that being commander in chief is about winning peace, security and prosperity for all Americans -- not winning elections. " (Emphasis added)

 Israel Hayom: Iran’s politically inconvenient nuclear program   "Of course, the administration has done almost everything in its power to slow the growth in domestic production of oil and gas, which could serve to temper any oil price rise, again with a nod to the president’s base of environmentalist supporters. Almost zero new permits have been issued for offshore drilling, and the federal government and its environmentalist allies have combined to slow down the development of shale gas and oil from tar sands, both of which provide an opportunity for the U.S. to greatly increase our domestic supplies and known reserves of both fuels."

DEBKAfile:  How the US and Israel let Iran get a nuclear arms capab[i]lity  ""No one knows what the US or Israeli leaders will decide to do, whether in concert or unilaterally, to rectify their grave lapse. Will they opt for living with a nuclear-armed Iran while downplaying the menace thereof or resort to a military offensive to extinguish it?"

No Good Choices in Egypt, But Brotherhood Victory is the Outcome to be Avoided  "This is a confusing situation and a reminder that even a skillful U.S. government can’t always impose its will or beliefs on other countries. The Obama administration has been anything but skillful in handling this situation, but at this point, Washington doesn’t have any good choices. Yet the United States still has considerable leverage in the form of the $2 billion in aid that goes to Egypt on an annual basis. Despite our revulsion at what is going on in Cairo, this is not the moment to be revoking that aid. Instead, we should be signaling the military that we might support their position if they commit to acting as a check on the Islamists and the guarantor of genuine democracy."

The #OWS Hall Of Shame: Democrats Who Support/Supported The Occupy Wall Street Movement

NiceDeb  "Ironically, many of the shameless and foolhardy Dems who embraced the false narrative that uncivil Tea Party rhetoric inspired the Tucson shooter – are the same shameless and foolhardy Dems who embraced the truly violent and perverse #OWS movement. Back in January, the MSM did it’s best to push a fictional connection between the Tea Party and the Tucson violence, while in recent weeks, it did it’s best to protect the #Occupy movement from exposure with constant assurances that it was “largely peaceful” – that is – until the violence and moonbattery became too conspicuous to hide. In both cases the inevitable truth would eventually escape past the MSM gatekeepers to the masses."

President Obama: 
“The most important thing we can do right now is those of us in leadership letting people know that we understand their struggles and we are on their side, and that we want to set up a system in which hard work, responsibility, doing what you’re supposed to do, is rewarded,” Obama tells ABC News. “And that people who are irresponsible, who are reckless, who don’t feel a sense of obligation to their communities and their companies and their workers that those folks aren’t rewarded.”

The Hillary Moment; President Obama can't win by running a constructive campaign, and he won't be able to govern if he does win a second term..

By Patrick Caddell and Douglas Schoen in the Wall Street Journal:  "Even with his all-time low job approval ratings (and even worse ratings on handling the economy) the president could eke out a victory in November. But the kind of campaign required for the president's political survival would make it almost impossible for him to govern—not only during the campaign, but throughout a second term.
"Put simply, it seems that the White House has concluded that if the president cannot run on his record, he will need to wage the most negative campaign in history to stand any chance."....
"By going down the re-election road and into partisan mode, the president has effectively guaranteed that the remainder of his term will be marred by the resentment and division that have eroded our national identity, common purpose, and most of all, our economic strength."....
"If President Obama is not willing to seize the moral high ground and step aside, then the two Democratic leaders in Congress, Sen. Harry Reid and Rep. Nancy Pelosi, must urge the president not to seek re-election—for the good of the party and most of all for the good of the country."

Via LeftCoastRebel  "In essence, they are saying that even if Obama manages to get himself re-elected, he will continue to damage the party beyond repair. And they're right. Whether Obama wins the nomination or goes on to win next November, it will be a Pyrrhic victory for Democrats."
Democratic Pollsters: Obama Should Abandon Run for Second Term  "This is not the first time Caddell and Schoen have made this argument. They wrote in November 2010 in The Washington Post that they “do not come to this conclusion lightly. But it is clear, we believe, that the president has largely lost the consent of the governed.” "

The truth from Chris Matthews: Obama's glow is fading  "Finally, the truth is out: Mr Obama runs his administration like your average teenager."

"He never calls. That's the message. Members of Congress, I keeping asking: 'when did you hear from him last?' (silence) He doesn't like their company. That's a problem, by the way." "

CHE WASN'T A FREEDOM-FIGHTER, AND NEITHER ARE THE OWS SCUM


How Gross!… HAZMAT Called in to Remove 200 POUNDS OF FECES Near #Occupy Santa Cruz Squatters Camp  "It is like watching a live enactment of lord of the flies as these idiots have to relearn all the basic things that go into making society work. And they wonder why we laugh at them when they say they have all the answers. If they can’t plan ahead to cover basic sanitation I shudder to think what would happen if real life and death responsibility was dropped in their grasping hands. I guess when the evil corporations crush a single flower it is a tragedy, but if they totally destroy their own environment it is just unpreventable."  From the comments to this article.

Occupy protester busted with handgun and ammo, in more arrests at Zuccotti
(Right) Peace out, dude: Accused Occupy gun nut Joshua Fellows leaves his arraignment related to an earlier protest this week. Cops say he had an unregistered handgun in his car.
"In all police arrested five people during the weekend, including Fellows, a protester who threw liquid in a cop’s face and another alleged groper for attacking a woman, cops said today.
"On Saturday, Zach Breur, 22, allegedly groped the breasts and buttocks of a 22-year-old woman. He was charged with two counts of forcible touching."

Slow posting on the Tunnel Wall is NOT my fault

Still trying to make good Wi-Fi connections here in Santa Maria, California. I'm doing the best I can, but the Japanese tsunami has caused great delays. Then came the Bush-caused breakdown of the society in which I am forced by birth to function and which has caused a massive domino-effect of unfortunate circumstances.

We should be back in Santa Paula Sunday evening and, hopefully, connected to a good, er...connection to make up for lost time.

 Please keep checking in because the TW never sleeps, it only languishes.

Cain steps into Letterman's lion's den and gets devoured

American Thinker  "In his promos for the Cain interview, Letterman said, "The road to the White House goes through me!" Maybe so, but only in the sense that Letterman has enormous power to block that road for any candidate he opposes, and that power only increases when the candidate, in a colossal lapse of good judgment, steps blithely into Letterman's parlor."




Obama’s Denigrate America tour; President views us through the eyes of our enemies

The Washington Times  "No other American president - not even Jimmy Carter or Bill Clinton - has vilified and denigrated his country while in office like Mr. Obama. It is not just that he routinely demonizes segments of his own countrymen - denouncing “fat-cat” bankers, millionaires, billionaires and corporate-jet owners. He has publicly attacked the Supreme Court for its decision on campaign-finance legislation. He has urged Hispanic supporters to “punish our enemies.” He has called Fox News and other media critics “illegitimate.” Since the 2010 midterm elections, he even has questioned the efficacy of our constitutional system, complaining about our “broken politics.” He derides “this big, messy, tough democracy,” openly admitting his temptation to bypass Congress and go it “alone.” This is more than hyperpartisanship. It expresses a deep-seated revulsion for American traditions and American democracy."  Via Lucianne
