Nancy Pelosi (D-etached from Reality) Blames May's Lousy Economic News on Tornadoes

Of course.

The Democrats always seem to have handy excuses for the consistently lousy economic data that keeps pouring in month after month. Rest assured, it never has anything to do with their audaciously reckless spending or drop-dead idiotic policies.

SCHIEFFER: You know, the unemployment figures came out, and they were worse than expected, as you know. Unemployment actually ticked up to 9.1%, but this was just part of the story. A series of numbers that have been really, really bad lately. The number of new jobs created - 54,000 - far fewer than expected. Home prices hit a new low in the first quarter of the year. Home sales are down again. Consumer confidence is down, and gas and food prices are up. I have to say, Congresswoman, many of the experts thought the recovery would be well underway by now. But it looks like we're going backwards now, that we may be on the verge of a double-dip recession here. Do you fear that's what's happened?

PELOSI: Well, I think we have to take a careful look at those figures to see. The unemployment numbers are obviously disturbing. Are they an anomaly as some people suggest because of the disasters in the south and the mid-west and the rest or is this something systemic that we have to accommodate in a different way? But, all of it translates into hardship for America's middle class and they are feeling it very, very severely.

Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Cockroach) Ready to Carpetbag if Necessary

Even Republican gerrymandering doesn't faze him!

Maybe he's afraid if he's not a Congressman anymore his trophy wife will hit the high road.

"Kucinich confirms reports that other states have asked him to run, but he hasn't made any decisions."

Right, right. Other states are just clamoring for his indispensable services.

New Civility Update: Seething Moonbat Tells Washington Times Reporter to "Drop Dead"

Don't light a cigarette near this creep, he's liable to blow.

I keep hearing that both sides of the political aisle have their share of nutjobs, but I'm struggling to recall the last time a conservative activist spit nails like this at a liberal media reporter after a "biased" question at an open press conference.

Washington Times reporter Kerry Picket has the full video and write-up of this bizarre encounter over at her blog.

Irony: Daffy Former VPOTUS Very Worried About GOP "Extreme Elements"

Does anyone still take this crackpot seriously - let alone cough up donations to the DCCC in response to his delusional screeds?

Former Vice President Al Gore is asking Democratic activists to send donations to House Democrats' campaign arm as a check on the "extreme elements in control of today’s Republican Party."

"Not since the dark days of the Bush administration have we seen a Republican-controlled Congress that is so intent on pushing their agenda in Washington — protecting tax breaks for oil companies making record profits, attempting to roll back environmental regulations, and not only refusing to pass climate change legislation in any form but refusing to acknowledge that climate change even exists," Gore wrote in a fundraising pitch for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC).

The former presidential candidate, who lost to George W. Bush in the disputed 2000 election, noted the DCCC was trying to raise $1 million from grassroots activists before the March 31 deadline.

That is scary, actually.

Not Republicans controlling Congress. I'd say 5% unemployment and annual budget deficits below $1 trillion sounds pretty good right about now.

No, what's really scary is that this loon won the popular vote in 2000.

Old and Busted Pro-Choice Mantra: "Safe, Legal & Rare" ~ The New Hotness: We ♥ Abortion

What a sickening display this is.

Although I must admit the "How can you trust me with a child?" sign is surprisingly thought-provoking.

Well played, Ms. Moonbat. I can certainly understand why you might not want to punish yourself with a baby. What a drag that would be! But have you considered a chastity belt? A tubal ligation? Or, perhaps - not sleeping around so much? Those are all fairly effective methods of birth control, and none of them involve killing babies.

Just sayin'.

Vancouver Sun 'Journalist' Whines About 'Hate Speech' on Rightwing Site, Turns Out to Be a Kos Kid

This is hilarious. A far left Vancouver "journalist" thinks he's got the goods on the Free Republic for alleged "hate speech" against Malia Obama the other day. Yet as it turns out, this member of the mainstream media turns out to also be a poster at the far left nuthouse, the Daily Kos.

You can make this stuff up.

It gets worse, though. Chris Parry, it appears, has advocated on his Daily Kos blog any number of egregious offenses, among them: posting hate speech on sites like Free Republic and blaming it on conservatives. Parry posted under the name "hollywoodoz" on Daily Kos, where his signature was "Fool me once, I'll punch you in the fucking head." Parry outed himself as hollywoodoz here, where he discloses the company he helped start. In essence: Parry, the journalist, found his story right where he'd been circling it for a very long time, and reported it as news. Sigh.

Naturally, the Freepers are tearing this guy a new one.

Good for them.

Freepers, get the word out loud and wide. The Vancouver Sun "jounalist" Chris Parry that defamed Jim Robinson and FreeRepublic is none other than radical left blogger "Hollywoodoz" at the Daily Kos. In addition to writting for the Vancouver Sun, Chris is a frustrated and failed internet entrepernuer having launched many websites and blogs, all of which have virtually no traffic, following, or success. Chris also writes movie reviews, though these are pretty lame.

Chris Parry actually advocated attacking "negros" and blaming the republicans for it. See this post at the Daily Kos by "hollywoodoz", who is in reallity, as proven below Chris Parry of the Vancouver Sun. See it here: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2005/9/9/10324/92702 This spells BUSH, CHENEY, BROWN. Now if this is not grounds for losing your job at the Vancouver Sun, I don't know what is.
...
Chris Parry to state it again, has advocated attacking blacks and blaming republicans. This explains his article attacking FreeRepublic about post about the Obama girls. Amazing. Looks like Chris has done what he advocated back in his Daily Kos post.

I wonder what his employers at the Vancouver Sun have to say about this?

Quackery In Vermont: Protesters Demand To Pay More Taxes; Update: Democrats Agree, Increase Taxes on Tax Day!

What do you expect from a state that sends a kook like socialist Bernie Sanders to the Senate? While taxpayers across the nation attend tea parties today protesting onerous taxation and creeping socialism, some nutcases in Vermont came out to call for higher taxes.

Protesters nationwide demanded lower taxes on Wednesday. A group in Vermont can't get enough of them.

Calling itself S.O.S., or Save Our State, the group held a small pro-tax protest in Montpelier, the national income tax-filing deadline, to drive home that taxes pay for needed programs and state employees perform necessary duties.

About two dozen people crowded [two dozen people is a crowd? --ed.] around the state Tax Department's help window while organizers turned in single-signature petitions, designed to look like a tax form, that organizers called SOS-EZ forms.

They list 17 state programs that could be kept whole with what organizers say would be a modest tax increase.

"It's not just a day to worry about taxes; we value our institutions and the programs the state offers," said S.O.S. organizer Chris Curtis, an attorney with Vermont Legal Aid. "We can't pave our own roads. We can't keep our own courthouse doors open. It's frustrating that some days of the week the courts are closed."

The protest came as thousands of demonstrators gathered nationwide for anti-tax rallies modeled on the original Boston Tea Party.

Dennise Casey, a spokeswoman for Republican Gov. Jim Douglas, said he remained steadfast in his opposition to new taxes, but that taxpayers have the option to give the state more than legally required.

"I am assuming that all of these individuals who are advocating for paying more taxes have led by example by paying more taxes today," Casey said. "As for struggling Vermont families, the governor is opposed to higher taxes."

No, they don't want to pay more. They want the rest of us to.

Just watch. Some networks tonight will probably give this crowd of two dozen people as much airtime as the hundreds of thousands that turned out for tea parties.

Ace links. Thanks!

Update: Here's a local angle. Believe it or not they chose today to increase taxes.

"We're not suggesting that we willy-nilly raise taxes but to do it in smart way that spreads out the burden," said Lindsey Hescock of Middlebury.

"We need to have taxes to have the services and the infrastructure important to all of us," said Shelia Reed, of Voices for Vt. Children.

Democratic lawmakers agree, and on Tax Day they supported a $24 million income tax hike.

"I don't think anybody likes to pay taxes, I'm not wild about paying taxes, but I understand it's an obligation of citizenship and I get a lot for the taxes I pay," said Rep. Janet Ancel, D-Calais.

Unreal.

Heh: Lefty Bloggers Whining That Democrats Aren't Buying Ads on Their Kook Sites

Alternate headline: Useful Idiots Realize They're No Longer Useful

What's the old adage? Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free?

I find it uproariously funny that some of the top progressive blogs are sniveling that Democrats aren't throwing money at them. Why bother? The Democrats aren't stupid. They know these folks are in the tank and these whiny propagandists figure they're entitled to a payday for carrying water for them all these years.

So why bother wasting money when they can target their ad buys elsewhere and try to reach an alternate audience?

Check out the pouting.

Some of the leading liberal bloggers are privately furious with the major progressive groups — and in some cases, the Democratic Party committees — for failing to spend money advertising on their sites, even as these groups constantly ask the bloggers for free assistance in driving their message.

It’s a development that’s creating tensions on the left and raises questions about the future role of the blogosphere at a time when a Dem is in the White House and liberalism could be headed for a period of sustained ascendancy.

A number of these top bloggers agreed to come on record with me after privately arguing to these groups that they deserved a share in the ad wealth and couldn’t be taken for granted any longer.

“They come to us, expecting us to give them free publicity, and we do, but it’s not a two way street,” Jane Hamsher, the founder of FiredogLake, said in an interview. “They won’t do anything in return. They’re not advertising with us. They’re not offering fellowships. They’re not doing anything to help financially, and people are growing increasingly resentful.”

Fellowships? Is she for real? Yeah, I can see some think-tank lining up to offer some freak like TBogg a fellowship.

Phew, I'll have some of what she's smoking.

“Most want the easy way — having a big blogger promote their agenda,” adds Markos Moulitsas, the founder of DailyKos. “Then they turn around and spend $50K for a one-page ad in the New York Times or whatever.” Moulitsas adds that officials at such groups often do nothing to engage the sites’s audiences by, say, writing posts, instead wanting the bloggers to do everything for them.

Why do that when they have intellectual heavyweights like Keith Olbermann blogging for Kos?

Poor little maroon. So trusting, so naive.

“We don’t invest in the future, and Republicans do,” says John Aravosis, the founder of AMERICAblog. “The party committees really get that we can be effective as their partners and that we’re happy to help, and they take advantage of that. But even so, very little ad money comes from them. It’s more than just wanting to share in the spoils. We are small business-people who are fighting to survive economically in a really bad year.”

I hope for this moron's sake he's not trying to live off that junk he calls a blog.

Man, these people are dumber than I thought.

Adds John Amato, the founder of Crooks and Liars: “These groups actually believe that we should promote their stuff for free. Do they not understand that we need funds to sustain our viability?”

Ahh, a silver lining in a bad economy. These people might disappear from public view.

Best news I had all day.

Finally! Obama: The Movie

You know you've all been clamoring for it.

Rumors have it that it's a comedy farce.

Produced by Edward Norton's Class 5 Films and directed by Amy Rice (From Ashes) and Alicia Sams (Toots), BY THE PEOPLE: The Election of Barack Obama will be released theatrically in the U.S. by HBO Documentary Films. The documentary follows the former Senator from the announcement of his candidacy to his historic election and inauguration as the first African American president of the United States. Told through unprecedented and exclusive footage of Obama and his staff, the film offers viewers an all-access pass to campaign life on the road to the White House.

"This remarkable film gives us a unique behind-the-scenes look at a truly transformative event. The filmmakers have done a beautiful job of creating a compelling narrative, and we are proud to be able to make the film available to the global market," said Steve Bersch, President, SPWAG.

"Obama's election was, clearly, a global event which people all over the world felt deeply about on both political and emotional levels. From the start, it was very important to us to share this film with as broad an international audience as possible and we're really thrilled to be partnered with Sony in trying to achieve this because no company has more experience or reach in both the world markets and home video," said Producer Edward Norton.

Yawn.

Prediction: It'll tank, but will no doubt win critical accalim and all sorts of awards.

Ace links. Thanks!

Your Moonbat Update of the Day

When last we heard from Pamela Graf she along with her boyfriend were being charged for arson for trying to burn down her house. Of course it was all a right-wing neocon Bush/Cheney/McHitler plot carried out by racist, southerners.

Well, it seems Pamela has gone missing now.

Robert J. Tavenier, Forsyth County’s director of pre-trial services, said Monday that a felony arrest warrant has been issued for Graf for tampering with an electronic monitoring device.

The ankle monitor, which Graf was required to wear as a condition of her bond on arson charges, was found on a roadside in Twiggs County, in Middle Georgia, said Tavenier.

These are the people who put Obama in office. You know, in some ways I wonder if maybe she is just angling for a cabinet level post.

However, Graf knew that prosecutors in Forsyth County were planning to request that her bond be revoked and that she be jailed, pending her arson trial, Tavenier said.

Suspects released on bond cannot violate any laws, and Graf was arrested March 24 in Forsyth County for allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs, he said.

BTW, she isn't the only one to discard an ankle bracelet and go on the lam. We also have a former deputy sheriff who was under house arrest for the murder of his wife and a "day laborer" who also has gone on the lam.

Hey, wouldn't it be great if maybe we could put ankle bracelets on those Gitmo guys when we bring them to America?

'May America Perish So That There Wl Be Peace In This World'

All the kooks are coming out of the woodwork. We noticed this lovely comment from last night's North Korea post.

suleman tanku | 04.05.09 - 3:33 pm | #

Lovely sentiments.

I traced the IP for this boob to Cape Town, South Africa.

So nice to see the folks there are so appreciative at the efforts of Americans to end apartheid.

Good thing the rest of the world is loving us again now that Obama is in office.

Speaking of kooks, the darling of the liberal blogosphere yesterday said conservatives like to shoot cops. How quaint.



Funny, but when a leftwinger murdered four cops in his back yard, he was silent about it.

Great News! The Left Finally Love the Police

Sadly, it took the murder of three Pittsburgh police officers today, but the left has finally embraced the brave men and women of law enforcement today with an outpouring of affection and respect.

Oh wait, no they haven't. In fact, they haven't uttered a word about respecting the police or showing sympathy for the families of those killed by some nutcase.

Instead, they're blaming this on, um, Glenn Beck.

Funny, but when four police officers were murdered in Oakland a couple of weeks ago, I don't recall anyone blaming it on liberals, Air America or MSNBC.

Funny how that works.

Let's take a sampling from the fever swamps today, shall we?

At Balloon Juice, John Cole offers this subtle analysis, calling it Glenn Beck's America. I suppose when those four cops were murdered in Oakland we should have called it what, Jesse Jackson's America? Barack Obama's America? Ron Dellums' America?

Please, someone enlighten me.

Also piling on Glenn Beck is the very unstable John Amato, who also blames the NRA.

Again, we've had thousands of police officers murdered in the line of duty the past several decades, the overwhelming majority killed in urban areas. So I guess the kneejerk reaction to all of those homicides should be to blame it on failed liberal policies in cities controlled by Democrats, correct? Hey, if you want to play that game, let's assign blame for every murder to the killer's party affiliation and ideology, OK? You folks really want to go down that road?

By all means then, it's game on.

Meanwhile, there's a call for the right to lower the temperature a bit.

Funny, but for eight years of the Bush presidency, I don't recall similar pleas for the left to dial it down.

While I'm not one who ascribes to paranoid fears of an "Obama gun grab" or the notion that we'll wake up tomorrow without a Second Amendment, I can understand the fears of gun owners who've had to continue the vociferous fight to maintain gun rights over the years. Considering there are over 50 million gun owners out there in America today who did not commit a crime with their weapons, I believe reflexive reactions to pin the blame on a talk show host or to even suggest today's tragic events in Pittsburgh can be assigned to a political party are disingenuous at best and rather disgusting.

But if those on the left want to play that game, then by all means every time a police officer is murdered then we can play along.

As always, as someone with many relatives in law enforcement and who has seen friends killed in the line of duty, I express my deepest sympathies to the family and friends of those killed in Pittsburgh today. Maybe those on the left who are pointing the finger at Glenn Beck can find the time to also pass along their sympathies.

If they actually have any.

Update: Apparently it's all our fault.

In the comments, a vicious far-left blogger, who apparently is also a racist, says we "own this". He apparently has a very short memory, especially from that time when he suggested shooting another blogger.

Classy guy, that T-Bag.

Thanks to Curt at Flopping Aces for the link. Image of the fallen officers added.

More on the perp here.

Records indicate that Mr. Poplawski was dishonorably discharged from the corps during basic training. Friends said he wanted out so he could rejoin his girlfriend.

When that relationship failed, Mr. Poplawski moved for two years to Florida where he worked as a glazier, helping to asemble and replace windows. He returned here in 2006 or 2007.

Mr. Poplawski collaborated with Mr. Perkovic on an Internet show that featured clips --- sometimes from local news broadcasts, other times video from around the town --- where they discussed politics.

Mr. Poplawski lived with his mother and grandmother in Stanton Heights. Friends said his parents had split years ago and that his father "was totally out of the picture."

Using the left's logic, we can now also blame the Marines, women, his mother and his grandmother, in addition to Glenn Beck. Of course we have no knowledge he's ever watched or listened to Glenn Beck, but why disrupt a good narrative?

Vast Left Wing Conspiracy Confirmed

Shocking, isn't it? Well, not really, considering these people all regurgitate the same drivel on a daily basis and couldn't come up with an original idea if their miserable lives depended on it.

For the past two years, several hundred left-leaning bloggers, political reporters, magazine writers, policy wonks and academics have talked stories and compared notes in an off-the-record online meeting space called JournoList.

Proof of a vast liberal media conspiracy?

Not at all, says Ezra Klein, the 24-year-old American Prospect blogging wunderkind who formed JournoList in February 2007. “Basically,” he says, “it’s just a list where journalists and policy wonks can discuss issues freely.”

But some of the journalists who participate in the online discussion say — off the record, of course — that it has been a great help in their work. On the record, The New Yorker’s Jeffrey Toobin acknowledged that a Talk of the Town piece — he won’t say which one — got its start in part via a conversation on JournoList. And JLister Eric Alterman, The Nation writer and CUNY professor, said he’s seen discussions that start on the list seep into the world beyond.

“I’m very lazy about writing when I’m not getting paid,” Alterman said. “So if I take the trouble to write something in any detail on the list, I tend to cannibalize it. It doesn’t surprise me when I see things on the list on people’s blogs.”

Nice to see a hack like Alterman admit he's a lazy sack of shit. Ironic, though, how the media hasn't reported on this?

One byproduct of that secrecy: For all its high-profile membership — which includes Nobel Prize-winning columnist Paul Krugman; staffers from Newsweek, POLITICO, Huffington Post, The New Republic, The Nation and The New Yorker; policy wonks, academics and bloggers such as Klein and Matthew Yglesias — JList itself has received almost no attention from the media.

A LexisNexis search for JournoList reveals exactly nothing. Slate’s Mickey Kaus, a nonmember, may be the only professional writer to have referred to it “in print” more than once — albeit dismissively, as the “Klein Klub.”

While members may talk freely about JList at, say, a Columbia Heights house party, there’s a “Fight Club”-style code of silence when it comes to discussing it for publication.

But a handful of JList members agreed to talk for this story — if only to push back against the perception that the group is some sort of secret, left-wing cabal.

Translation: Please, we know we have zero credibility, but still, try and pretend we're all deep thinkers.

Surprise! Massachusetts Taxpayers Fail to Take Advantage of Opportunity to Contribute Their Fair Share

Nothing like putting their money where their mouth is. I've always suggested it was simple for greedy liberals to solve all the problems they blame on the rich for not "paying their fair share" and they could simply volunteer to pay more taxes.

But no, can't have that. After all, the left wants to have at it with your money, not their own.

Now lo and behold, look here at the numbers coming out of Massachusetts, that bastion of liberalism. Howie Carr finds a nice, juicy target and gleefully unloads.

Moonbats of Massachusetts, what about the children?

It is with deep regret that I must report to you that in this new tax season more than 99.99 percent of the Beautiful People in Massachusetts are again refusing to do the right thing on their income tax returns and voluntarily pay at the old, higher rate.

All year long, the Hope and Change crowd sanctimoniously lectures those of us who work for a living about how mean-spirited we are because we begrudge paying our “fair share” to help the layabouts who have “fallen through the cracks.”

But strangely, every year, when all they need to do is have the accountant check off a single box on their income-tax forms to solve the problems created by the Cheney presidency, the Yes-We-Can types adamantly refuse to part with a few extra bucks.

As you know, a few years back, as a gag, the Legislature passed a bill allowing the state’s pony-tailed, trust-funded liberals to voluntarily pay at the old 5.85 percent income tax rate, rather than at the reduced 5.3 percent rate.

Considering that in 2000, 40 percent of the electorate voted against cutting the state income tax, you might have expected hundreds of thousands of the blow-in drifters now squatting in Cambridge and Brookline and Amherst to voluntarily ante up.

But no. The state, it appears, is teeming with Leona Helmsleys. Taxes are for the little people, not the Beautiful People.

Here are the latest DOR numbers. As of yesterday, 640,783 individual taxpayers had filed their 2008 returns. Of those 640,783, exactly 293 opted to pay at the higher 5.85 percent rate.

Back me up on the math here. If 640,000 is the number, then 6,400 would be 1 percent, and 640 would be one-tenth of 1 percent. And 293 is less than one half of one tenth of 1 percent. So the percentage so far this year is one-twentieth of 1 percent.

Moonbats, I beseech you! Send in some more of the dough from Pater’s trust fund. Otherwise, how can we offer alms to the neediest among us, like Deval Patrick’s unemployed neighbor with the new made-up $120,000-a-year state job, and the Bulger hack who’s been collecting for 15 years and now was just handed a brand new $150,000 made-up state job?

Actually, the state claims the Beautiful People are twice as likely to check the higher-rate box this year, but two times zero is still zero. Even sadder is how much the commonwealth has collected from these 293 individuals - exactly $24,098.

Again, these are rough calculations, but I think that works out to just under $90 per filer. If $90 is .55 percent of your taxable income, you made about $18,000 in 2008.

That’s not a lot of taxable income. That’s why they all invest in municipal bonds - no taxes.

Theories abound as to why Beautiful People are so damn cheap, whether it’s evading taxes (see Geithner, Rangel, Daschle and now maybe Emanuel) or giving next to nothing to charity (see Biden, Kerry, et al.). Perhaps - make that probably - they’re just a bunch of phonies and hypocrites.

Read the rest.

Pali Sympathizers Try to Interrupt Obama Tee Time

Heaven forbid out Dear Leader-elect has his precious energies sidetracked by a couple of wacko terrorist sympathizers.

After loading his clubs onto a cart, Obama, wearing sunglasses, a white shirt, khaki shorts, white and brown golf shoes, and a red baseball cap emblazoned with the City and County of Honolulu's Ocean Safety logo, drove down to the driving range....

Prior to leaving for the course at about 11 a.m., a group of five people approached the security checkpoint set up by the U.S. Secret Service and Honolulu police carrying a box wrapped with a gold ribbon. The group, led by Fred and Pat Shepherd from Greenbrae, Calif., and Robert Steiver, 65, of Honolulu, asked the Secret Service if they could deliver the box and a letter to Obama.

The Secret Service declined.

Speaking to a reporter, Fred Shepherd said they wanted to deliver the box, which once held "Super Gorilla" golf balls but now contained informational DVD's about the Israeli/Palestinian conflict.

"I don't think he's taking a vacation, he's preparing to be the next president," said Steiver. "I'm deathly afraid he'll continue the failed policies of the Bush administration. I've been suffering with the Palestinians for years."

Keep suffering, dude.

The angry left is going to have a difficult time rationalizing Obama's vacations once he's in office. They still whining about Bush taking vacations, believe it or not.

Update: Heh. Woman goofs on Obama's bowling. Doesn't she know laughing at Obama is forbidden?

President-elect Barack Obama thought he'd put the bowling jokes behind him. Not likely.

On the golf course Monday, a woman waiting at the 18th green reminded Obama of his disastrous bowling during the presidential campaign. It was an unwelcome reminder for Obama, whose golf game during a 12-day vacation has been just as troublesome.

"That was pretty good, right?" Obama said to cheers as he finished a round of golf near his $9 million rented vacation home near Honolulu.

The woman sitting on a nearby wall shouted, "Better than your bowling."

Hapless Obamatons Slapped Around by Old Ladies at Palin Rally

I have to imagine they're telling the truth because, seriously, would you go on camera to admit you got a beatdown from a 65-year-old lady?

Dude.

These guys are total pussies. You have to figure these sniveling worms had to have been really obnoxious. One obviously came prepared for a beating since he's got a hockey helmet on.

Liberals, Canada Is Waiting

Please move to Canada this time if you lose. Liberals say it every election cycle, but just like their candidates they never keep their word. Well Canada is sweetening the pot this year.
