ElBaradei: Investigate Bush for War Crimes

No doubt most Democrats would agree with this maniac.

The former chief U.N. nuclear inspector suggests in a new memoir that Bush administration officials should face international criminal investigation for what he says was their "deliberate deception" on weapons of mass destruction leading up to the Iraq invasion.

The book by the Nobel Peace Prize-winning Mohamed ElBaradei, titled "The Age of Deception," will go on sale next Tuesday.

ElBaradei accuses the Bush team of "grotesque distortion" in the run-up to the 2003 Iraq invasion, when then-President George W. Bush and his lieutenants claimed Iraq possessed doomsday weapons despite contrary evidence collected by U.N. arms inspectors inside Iraq.

Bet your last dollar he'll be invited on all the networks to spew this nonsense.

This is the same nutcase who allowed Iran to go nuclear while he was heading the IAEA.

Nutty Grayson Trails By Seven in New Poll

Deranged Florida Democrat Alan Grayson is now a mere seven days away from moving on to his new career as a host at MSNBC.

Holding a steady 7-point lead over a controversial and increasingly malodorous incumbent, Republican Daniel Webster is poised to knock out U.S. Rep. Alan Grayson, a new Sunshine State News Poll shows.

Webster, a former state senator, leads Grayson, D-Orlando, 48-41. Florida TEA Party candidate Peg Dunmire garnered 4 percent, No Party Affiliation candidate George Metcalfe got 1 percent, and 5 percent of respondents were undecided.

In a previous poll, conducted Sept. 25, Webster led Grayson 43-36, an identical 7-point margin.

"Webster has to be the favorite here. Grayson has failed to turn his negative image around, and is still viewed in a negative light by a 55-38 margin," said Jim Lee, president of Voter Survey Service, which conducted both polls. "This means Grayson has very little if any room to grow."

While Webster's negatives climbed 12 points since the earlier poll, undoubtedly spurred by Grayson's relentlessly negative advertising, the Republican maintains a relatively healthy favorable/unfavorable rating of 47/33.

Lee said nothing has changed the "fundamental equation for Grayson" in Central Florida's 8th Congressional District, where President Barack Obama gets a 52 percent job disapproval score (vs. 51 percent last month).

"Given that this district leans Democratic in raw registration numbers, Grayson's only hope is to turn out his base at a higher rate than the opponent's," Lee said.

Well, according to the weather forecast there may be thunderstorms in the Orlando area next Tueday and according to the "experts" rain will affect Democrat turnout.

So wave farewell the the malodorous one.

Fat Pony-tailed Blogger Confirms He's Insane

As proof he's completely insane, he's now writing there. Of course it's all about his pathetic obsession with Pamela Geller.

How sad.

Robert Spencer further slaps him around.

Alvin Greene: 'DeMint Started the Recession'

Leave it to MSNBC clown Lawrence O'Donnell to try and prop this nutcase up. Alvin Greene answers every question with "DeMint started the recession," yet offers no evidence of it. Becasue there is none, of course.

Nice to see MSNBC running the little "Deposing DeMint" header at the bottom of the screen. Nothing like openly advocating a political position on a supposed news network.

Oh, and memo to O'Donnell: The snide witch jokes about Christine O'Donnell are pretty stale by now. Just thought you might want to freshen up your lame jokes.

Liberal Icon: 'I'm a 9/11 Truther'

Gee, this comes as a real surprise. Now who knew people thought Dick Cheney was behind 9/11? This pretty much puts Sheehan in line with mainstream Democrats and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Congratulations to the left and the media for cultivating this madness. You made her, you own her.

Deranged MSNBC Host: 'I'm Going to Torch This F--king Place'

Yeah, I know what you're thinking. What did Bathtub Boy do now? No, it wasn't him. Actually Olbermann almost seems sane next to Ed Schultz, who's good for at least one on-air meltdown a week. Now he's going crazy in the newsroom.

Must be wonderful working in such a hostile environment.

MSNBC talk show screamer Ed Schultz had a meltdown in the network's 30 Rock newsroom, shouting at staff, "I'm going to torch this [bleep]ing place."

The hot-tempered anchor of "The Ed Show" lost it during a phone call in the packed studio and slammed down the phone before exploding.

As astonished MSNBC staff members fell silent, Schultz glared around the room and yelled, "[Bleep]ers!"

A witness told us, "Ed was furious the network was running election-night promos and he wasn't in them. He'd been arguing on the phone with marketing, then he slammed down the phone and exploded. It was like Mel Gibson had entered the newsroom."

Fuming Schultz was immediately dragged in for a meeting with NBC News President Steve Capus and MSNBC President Phil Griffin following his Aug. 12 meltdown.

Our source added, "Schultz was told: 'If you do that again, you are fired.' He broke down crying."

Sources say the hothead was pushed over the edge by MSNBC's catering to bullying fellow anchor Keith Olbermann and its focus on golden girl Rachel Maddow.

A second MSNBC source said, "Ed never gets any attention and love, and he finally snapped."

Remarkably, despite Schultz's test-pattern ratings, some flunky tried to put a positive spin on things.

A spokeswoman for Schultz and the network declined to comment on the incident but said, "The only thing that's on fire are Ed's ratings, and the only people crying are at CNN."

'Oh God, Did You Hear What Ron Paul Said?'

The leader of the tinfoil brigade descended upon New York University recently, leaving the assembled masses pining for more.

They fall silent as a man comes onstage - a makeshift wooden coffee table - to announce the main attraction: presidential candidate Ron Paul.

Jumping on the "stage," Paul asks the crowd, "Does anybody here love freedom?" and they go wild.

I sense a momentum mere mortals can no longer control.

Though Paul usually refrains from talking about his contenders, he had some pointed words for fellow Republican candidate Rudy Giuliani in his speech on Friday.

"We don't need somebody who used to be a mayor to be President of the United States," Paul said, to which the audience reacted with huge applause.

...

One of the most interesting aspects of Paul's campaign is his unique base of support.

Paul works to appeal to young people, emphasizing the effect current economic policies will have on their futures. Paul does well in internet polls despite trailing far behind other Republican candidates in other polls.

Alex Skozen, a CAS sophomore, said that while he has heard a lot about Paul, most of the information concerns his unorthodox stances.

"Every time people talk about him, it seems to start with 'Oh God, did you hear what Ron Paul said?' "

And usually, the answer is "Who the hell is Ron Paul?"

More today from a bemused Wasington Times.

Mr. Paul appears today at the National Press Club to discuss the state of his campaign finances. He has raised $8.3 million this year, according to numbers released Monday by the Federal Election Commission.

But money alone is not driving the campaign. It's zeal and spunk, perhaps.

And lots of bong hits and LSD.

Paul Kooks: Poll Was Rigged!

This is just too rich.

After months of spamming every online and phone poll imaginable, the knuckle-dragging troglodytes from the Ron Paul camp have the temerity to whine about a poll being rigged.

Projection, anyone?

After their candidate's third-place showing in the Texas Republican Party straw poll Saturday, Ron Paul supporters are spreading a theory online that the contest was rigged.

Their main piece of evidence is a five-minute video posted on YouTube. It shows Paul supporters being denied entrance to the Fort Worth Convention Center on Saturday morning to participate in the nonbinding poll.

The clip, titled "Tyranny at the Texas Straw Poll Ron Paul," has been viewed more than 100,000 times and linked to by more than 60 blogs.

In the clip, a man working for the Texas Republican Party tells Paul supporters that it is after 10 a.m. and that registration has closed. The supporters argue that they registered and paid for the event in advance but that no one told them they had to arrive before 10 a.m.

Activists are seizing on the video as proof that the state party went out of its way to keep Paul, a U.S. representative from Surfside, from winning the poll because of his opposition to the Iraq war.

"This Poll has all the earmarks of a Fascist Regime and a staged event to discredit only one man. Ron Paul," writes a Paul supporter who blogs at the Leicester, N.C.-based GrannyWarriors.com and says she witnessed the event. She writes that a busload of Paul supporters from San Antonio arrived at the poll and were told registration was closed, only to see other attendees allowed in after them.

U.S. Rep. Duncan Hunter of California won the poll with 531 votes and 41.1 percent support. Actor Fred Thompson, a former Tennessee senator, came in second with 266 votes and 20.5 percent. Paul collected 217 votes and 16.7 percent.

Apparently, these folks have a little problem with rules and reading comprehension.

Texas Republican Party spokesman Hans Klingler said the party had made it clear for months that registration would close at 10 a.m. Saturday.

"It is regrettable a very small group of people did not read their information more thoroughly and follow the protocol for both Friday and Saturday's registration process," Klingler said by e-mail.

Let's remember what we're dealing with here.

Freakshow in Fort Worth: Ron Paul Crackpots Besiege Locals

The Ron Paul Traveling Sideshow surfaced in Fort Worth, full of bluster and bravado, and in desperate search for more pyrrhic victories.

Paul backers make their presence known

FORT WORTH -- Rep. Ron Paul wasn't there for most of the first day of the Republican straw poll Friday, but his presence was felt everywhere.

In the "Ron Paul" placards people carried throughout downtown.

In the T-shirt likeness of him that supporters wore around the Fort Worth Convention Center.

In the signs posted in front of the convention center, on vehicles parked there and on some downtown businesses such as Four Star Coffee Bar.

Paul, of Surfside, didn't make it into Fort Worth until his night rally downtown. Nonetheless, he was a candidate who was impossible to ignore.

"We're going to surround the area as more people come," said Paul supporter Christopher Laskoski of Fort Worth. "You will see more ground support for Ron Paul than any other candidate."

Once they surround the area, will they allow sane people to leave?

"While we may not win the actual straw poll vote, we want to outnumber any of the other candidates' support to show that he has a strong chance in the actual primary, where all of the people in attendance will be able to vote," volunteer Clayton Slade of Richardson said.

Brimming with optimism, I see.

The lunatics aren't satisfied with just promoting their own guy, they're also endearing themselves to the other candidates.

In the afternoon, about 30 supporters crashed a rally that Rep. Duncan Hunter, a presidential hopeful from California, held outside the Water Gardens. As Hunter spoke to 50 Republicans about supporting the troops, Paul supporters stood just feet away, holding up Ron Paul signs.

"We're not necessarily against Duncan Hunter. We're just here to support Ron Paul," said Robert Brushaber of Austin.
