Down memory lane: Democrats fight President Bush over high gas prices

 
And they can get away with this because at least 50,000,000 voters in the US are clueless. The OJ Simpson jury multiplied by four million.

GOP Town Hall Explodes With Anger: 'We're Losing The Country' So Quit Being 'Nice Guys'!

Fiscal Conservatives  "If one Maryland town hall is any indication, Republican voters are not happy with how little Republican politicians are doing to reign in the government. Greta Van Susteren took viewers to a town hall where Congressman Andy Harris was confronted by constituents angry about NSA surveillance, the Obama administration, and Republicans not doing enough for them. One man scolded Harris, "We're dying out here because you guys are being nice guys!" "

Parents Outraged Over Transgender Bathroom Law

Todd Starnes  "One major conservative family group is calling on parents to pull their children out of California public schools after the governor signed a law allowing boys and girls access to the bathrooms and locker rooms of their choice – regardless of their gender.
"Democratic Gov. Jerry Brown announced Monday that he had signed AB1266 – seen as a landmark decision for transgender Americans. The new law gives students the right “to participate in sex-segregated programs, activities and facilities” based on their self-perception and regardless of their birth gender."
....
"“Jerry Brown and the Democrats have targeted every kid in public school with gender-bending brainwashing,” Thomasson said, warning the law would trample parents’ rights and invade the “personal comfort zone of millions of California children for a handful of sexually confused children who need professional counseling.” "

'The Butler' Slams Reagans, Ignores Real-Life Butler's Bond with Couple

Big Hollywood
 
"The film is based on an article in The Washington Post detailing the career of a black butler, Eugene Allen, who served with dignity through eight presidential administrations.

"Spoiler Alert  The title character (Forest Whitaker) quits his job after decades of service apparently due to his frustration that President Reagan refuses to embrace sanctions against South Africa for its apartheid policies.
"Yet in the Post article, Allen hardly seems angry at the Reagans.
Gene Allen was promoted to maitre d' in 1980. He left the White House in 1986, after 34 years. President Reagan wrote him a sweet note. Nancy Reagan hugged him, tight....
They've got pictures of President and Mrs. Reagan in the living room. On a wall in the basement, they've got pictures of every president Gene ever served. There's a painting President Eisenhower gave him and a picture of President Ford opening birthday gifts, Gene hovering nearby.
The WaPo shows things a bit differently:  Colin Powell would become the highest-ranking black of any White House to that point when he was named President Reagan's national security adviser in 1987. Condoleezza Rice would have that same position under President George W. Bush.

"Gene Allen was promoted to maitre d' in 1980. He left the White House in 1986, after 34 years. President Reagan wrote him a sweet note. Nancy Reagan hugged him, tight."

Rust and Diamonds: Jane Doesn’t Do Nancy Any Justice At All "It would have been too much to ask for Hollywood to give the Reagans their due in the forthcoming movie “The Butler.” You knew that going in. But either way, casting Jane Fonda in the role of Nancy Reagan was surely meant to push buttons, stir up controversy and generate interest in – and hence, profits for – the movie."
....
"There is no evidence that Jane Fonda did anything except cause misery in other peoples’ lives when it comes to this difficult period of American history.
"Meanwhile someday someone will write a very good book about Nancy Reagan and what she meant to her husband and, by extension, America. It was said that if Reagan had wanted to be a shoe salesman, she would have made sure he was the best shoe salesman in America. It just so happened he wanted to be president. This country is fortunate for him and for her pushing him."

How about that Muslim Brotherhood?

It's Obama, McCain, Graham who made 'huge mistake' in Egypt   All three fear that the anti-American (and generally anti-human) Muslim Brotherhood (MB), whom they mistakenly see as “moderate,” will disappear from the halls of power in Egypt, our most important Arab ally.

Former Muslim Brotherhood Member Now Peace Activist Walid Shoebat; John McCain: Next Ambassador to the Muslim Brotherhood?   
"Where McCain sees failure, a Muslim Brotherhood sympathizing president sees not only success but McCain as his tool in achieving it (whatever “it” is)."

 Dear Barack, Thank You for Snubbing Russia  ..."Despite being your “second choice”, Swedish policymakers are grateful that you snubbed off Russia to schedule the very first truly bilateral meeting with Sweden. Now, do not feel any pressure by the Swedish foreign minister’s excitement. Your trip to Sweden will be a nice breeze before you head to the G20 summit in Saint Petersburg on the 4th of September.

California Protects Transgender Kids as School System Rots

American Interest   "Here’s another California first: it’s the first state in the nation to pass a law protecting transgender kids from discrimination. At long last they can use any bathroom they want:"....
Opponents of the legislation said allowing pupils of one gender to use facilities intended for the other could invade the others students' privacy or violate their rights.

"Will transgender students make some other children uncomfortable? Perhaps," said the bill's author,Democratic Assemblyman Tom Ammiano.


Chicago Teachers Union Gets the Cover of Socialism 2013 Conference Program

Rebel Pundit  "The Socialism 2013 Conference agenda is out! And look who made the cover of the program. Not Che, not Moa, not Lenin, Stalin or Marx. The Chicago Teachers Union!"
Socialism 2013 Teachers
 
"Since the early days of the Occupy movement in October 2011, the ties between the radical institutional left and the Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) were becoming very clear. EAG News documented the relationship between the CTU and radical anarchist organizer Lisa Fithian, who trained the teachers in “non-violent direct action,” and more specifically, how to stage and coordinate their arrests with the Chicago Police Department."

Victor Davis Hanson; The Mother of All Scandals

PJ Media  ...."The election of 2012 may well have been altered by the Benghazi cover-up, in ways that transcend debate moderator Candy Crowley’s puerile and unprofessional efforts to shield Obama from Romney’s questioning about the deaths. Imagine the fallout on voters had we been told from the very beginning that an al-Qaeda affiliate had stormed our consulate — ill-prepared and unable to obtain needed beefed-up security, reliant for safety on local suspect tribal militias, in a country that had deteriorated into a failed society after our Libyan bombing — and slaughtered four Americans, apparently stationed in Benghazi to help in some way a covert CIA operation.

....
"So here we have it: a beleaguered “consulate” that was refused additional security and relied on local militias, apparently due to administration worry over destroying an Obama campaign narrative of a reborn Libya and dying al-Qaeda."....

US state fair bans rodeo clown who mocked Obama

Atlas Shrugs  "What, is he Muhammad now? Do not mock the prophet!
Let's be honest, Obama is a clown. They should have had the bull wear a Putin mask.
"They mocked Bush like mad. I never heard or saw the Republicans take up for Bush the way they have taken up for Obama. Pathetic.
"UPDATE: Tuffy the clown's facebook page. Like it here (than[k]s to Missouri Torch)
"The fair said in a written statement announcing the rodeo clown's ban that he had engaged in an "unconscionable stunt" that was "inappropriate and not in keeping with the Fair's standards." "
However this is permissible:  

 
 Obama the Clown Is Off Limits  "It's a sad state of affairs when America stands by while 3,000 babies are aborted daily, twiddle their thumbs while the Benghazi 4 lay in cold, dark graves, go about their business while the IRS targets American citizens, and keep right on talking while the NSA monitors their phone calls.  Then, after being lackadaisical about serious things, people are up in arms about a rodeo clown showing up at the Missouri state fair in an Obama mask."
....
"Remember when the HBO series Game of Thrones had George W. Bush's head on a stake during a beheading scene, and nary a liberal said a word?"

Support Tuffy on Facebook   "This page was started to show support for Tuffy Gessling a rodeo entertainer that is taking heat for telling a joke that has been around for decades. Tuffy's big sin? He dared to tell the joke using Obama."

U.S. Textbooks Rewrite History (and contain Islamic propaganda)

We the People  "Florida parents are shocked. They just found out that the textbooks their children have been studying for the last three years contain lies, history has been re-written, and the books contain pro-Islam propaganda;
- There are 36 pages dedicated to the religion of Islam, while there are NO chapters dedicated to Christianity or Judaism." 

 
More here: High School Text Book Literally Re-writes History   "Last I checked, Americans were free to choose their faith, but our country was undeniably founded on Judeo-Christian values. Whether you subscribe to Christianity or not, you can’t deny that its a rich part of our history. Look at our money! Having a 36-page chapter dedicated to Islam and only mentioning our nations core, founding values in an inaccurate, skewed way is a disgrace."
 
A Muslim speaks out against the Islamic horrors! "I Indict My Religion: "Islam exists today to destroy non-Muslims" "  Full text here.  Please pray for this man (whose name I have chosen not to include here) as he must surely have many fatwas on his head now.
If you want to help Islam, then it is time to tie your help with what our leaders do or say, and not by how much intelligence they deliver.
Otherwise, stop buying our oil and gas. Let us perish in our own waste. Maybe, then, our leaders will speak out and cooperate with the West based on equality and not based on them forcing Islam upon the rest of the world.
Enough is enough. I am really, really angry.
May those British teens, and all who were injured by Islamic terror in the past, find peace and happiness. May they, and their families, forgive us for not speaking loudly enough.

But the pacifist left, with their skewed moral compass, portrays those who push back against Islamic terror this way:

Know Thine Enemy; Major Hasan is honest about himself; why aren’t we?

Mark Steyn; ...."The U.S. Army seems disinclined to hold anything against him, especially the 13 corpses plus an unborn baby. Major Hasan fired his lawyers, presumably because they were trying to get him off — on the grounds that he’d had a Twinkie beforehand, or his beard don’t fit so you must acquit, or some such. As a self-respecting jihadist, Major Hasan quite reasonably resented being portrayed as just another all-American loon gone postal. So he sacked his defense team, only to have the court appoint a standby defense team just in case there were any arcane precedents and obscure case law he needed clarification on. I know that’s the way your big-time F. Lee Bailey types would play it, but it doesn’t seem to be Major Hasan’s style. On the very first day of the trial, he stood up and told the jury that “the evidence will clearly show that I am the shooter.” Later, in one of his few courtroom interventions, he insisted that it be put on the record that “the alleged murder weapon” was, in fact, his. The trial then came to a halt when the standby defense team objected to the judge that Major Hasan’s defense strategy (yes, I did it; gimme a blindfold, cigarette, and tell the virgins here I come) would result in his conviction and execution."
