enough about me. what do you think about me?

Michelle Obama is going to be pure gold for John McCain’s campaign. Pure gold.

“I know we’re spending — I added it up for the first time — we spend between the two kids, on extracurriculars outside the classroom, we’re spending about $10,000 a year on piano and dance and sports supplements and so on and so forth,” Mrs. Obama tells the women. “And summer programs. That’s the other huge cost. Barack is saying, ‘Whyyyyyy are we spending that?’ And I’m saying, ‘Do you know what summer camp costs?’”

I would imagine most of the women Michelle Obama was talking to were easily spending 10 grand a year on dancing lessons, polo ponies and Gucci loafers for their kids.

Luckily, she’s a good soldier, and simply marches on:

With all those concerns, one might wonder whether the women should be comforting Mrs. Obama, but she assures them that she’s really O.K. “We don’t complain because we’ve got resources because of our education. We’ve got family structure,” she says. “So I tell people don’t cry for me.”

Whew!! I was right on the verge of crying for Mrs. Obamessiah, before she stopped me.

In 2006, the Chicago Tribune reported that Mrs. Obama’s compensation at the University of Chicago Hospital, where she is a vice president for community affairs, jumped from $121,910 in 2004, just before her husband was elected to the Senate, to $316,962 in 2005, just after he took office.

Now why would her salary almost triple in a year?

These two are going to get beaten like rented mules; it’s almost scary. That they are in front shows what a dreadful candidate Hillary Clinton really is.

what a tool

Why do they have to do that??? Sayeth Barack Obama to a Texas audience comprised mostly of blacks:

Said Obama: “Y’all have Popeyes out in Beaumont? I know some of y’all you got that cold Popeyes out for breakfast. I know. That’s why y’all laughing. … You can’t do that. Children have to have proper nutrition. That affects also how they study, how they learn in school.”

Errrrr. Y’all? Y’all?

Editor of the Harvard Law Review, Mr. Smartypants Obamessiah?

Y’all? Is that how you really talk? Really?

Drop Drudge

Endangering the lives of British troops for a sensational scoop about Prince Harry (about which the mainstream media had surprisingly kept quiet) is taking sensationalism too far. Way too far. It’s hardly different from the New York Slimes exposing secrets to the enemy.

The British people are furious with Channel 4’s Jon Snow for saying “thank God for Drudge,” and many have decided to boycott Snow and Channel 4. Why stop there? Matt Drudge was the one to spill the beans, after all.

Jeff Quinton is urging others:

Since Drudge really isn’t that necessary anymore for news, and his scoops are few and far between anymore, why not drop Drudge? Remove his link from your website, de-link him from your blog and don’t link to him. If you care about letting him know that you’ve done it and why, send a message to drudge@drudgereport.com, otherwise just pull any links to him. Let us know if you’ve gone along with this plan in the comments below.

Count me in.

Dump Drudge. He’s well past his prime, and breaking this story just shows his desperation. Who needs him?

Waaaaaah! waaaaaah!

Does anybody believe a single word that comes out of this horrendous woman’s gob?

Asked why she thinks so many women may be feeling sorry for her, Clinton said, “I think a lot of women project their own feelings and their lives onto me, and they see how hard this is. It’s hard. It’s hard being a woman out there. It is obviously challenging with some of the things that are said that are not even personal to me so much as they are about women.

What things are said, you miserable sack of shinola? Nobody ever challenges her on this fantasyland baloney. She won a primary because she pretended to cry, FFS!!! If a boy did that, he’d be finished - finito.

“Every so often I just wish that it were a little more of an even playing field,” she said, “but, you know, I play on whatever field is out there.”

Glory to Hillary! Praise BE!!

A level playing field??? If there were a level playing field, and people weren’t running based upon their husband’s last name, she might have something to complain about.

As it is, she should shut her gaping piehole and be thankful.

This Show is *OVER!*

One of the reasons I am not afraid of Big Bad Barack is that I know eventually he has to actually open his mouth and say what he thinks. Well, here is one right here. Enjoy!

Barak talks.

Think about this. He had a lot of time to make this video. There were no live cameras. No audience people staring at him. No Tim Russert quizzing him. No opposing candidate glaring at him. Just his writers, his handlers and Mr. Obama. So, in this no pressure setting, what does Barack say? Does he say he will make our problems disappear? Does reassure us that he’ll be there with a hug and a Popsicle when we skin our knees? Something someone with a brain would do? No, he doesn’t. He starts with the usual “end the war” bore, and then he says he’ll cut defense. Typical libtard. He will eliminate those pesky missile defense programs. You know, the one that can hit a satellite the size of a bus before it enters the atmosphere? I am sure China and Iran are happy to hear that their sub-standard missiles will not be unfairly beat upon by our superior technology as they hurtle toward New York and California. Then again, maybe that isn’t so bad. Hmm. Anyway, I digress. Let’s continue.

After killing our missile defense, he will continue to make sure we’re not bullies any more. How? Well, he will not “weaponize” space. I am sure Taiwan and Japan are really happy to know that we won’t be competing with the Chi-coms for weapon development. I mean after all, you don’t want a strong person protecting you against attackers. That’s not nice. I am sure that China is glad to hear that they will be alone in having the missiles in space pointing at the Earth. Then again, everything else is made there, why not the only space attack system? After all, I am sure they just want to hunt terrorists too. Right? They are such nice people.

Now that’s rich, of course, but here are the money lines. The lines that just gave us victory. The lines we need to ram down his throat every chance we get. You see, he is going to work for a world without nukes, rid the world of the production of fission material and negotiate with the Russians to get rid of all the missiles. Huh? Is he running for president or for Miss America? I’m surprised he didn’t throw in world peace and no bullies in the schools. Miss South Carolina was ragged mercilessly for this answer. Her answer is brilliant compared to this. No nukes? Talk about a hippie fantasy. Why stop there? Why not no homeless, eliminating poverty and what ever other left wing fantassy (yes, fantassy since only an ass would think it possible) you can dream up?

This is what he says when he can think under no pressure. What will happen when he gets into the debates and has to answer for them? Or when someone sticks a mic in his face and asks a tough question? The media will not do that without pressure. We need to apply that pressure. Embarrass the media enough and they will start showing the real Obama. We need to get his real views to everyone we know who supports Obama and doesn’t think the guy is a left wing lunatic. Reagan democrats will wake out of their Obamacoma real fast when they see this and his opposition to the Infant Born Alive Protection Act in Illinois. We need to get people to show up to his town hall meetings and ask him about these goodies and get video of his answers on the net. We do that and we will destroy him.

One newscaster under Obama’s spell says that Obama represents everyone’s dreams of their future. I love crushing hippie dreams. All we have to do is our part and Obama is gone and the hippies will cry in their water bongs.

Thank you to LC 0311 crunchie I.M.H. at the Rott for putting up the video.

The Houses of Parliament in the United Kingdom considers Early Day Motions; meaningless expressions of moral vanity and preening self-congratulation, usually employed by left wing idiots praising some murderer or other who killed in the name of socialism. On February 20th, 69 MPs signed up for the following:

FIDEL CASTRO
20.02.2008

Burgon, Colin

That this House commends the achievements of Fidel Castro in securing first-class free healthcare and education provision for the people of Cuba despite the 44 year illegal US embargo of the Cuban economy; notes the great strides Cuba has taken during this period in many fields such as biotechnology and sport in both of which Cuba is a world leader; acknowledges the esteem in which Castro is held by the people and leaders of Africa, Asia and Latin America for leading the calls for emancipation of the world’s poorest people from slavery, hunger and the denial of human rights such as the right to life, the right to shelter, the right to healthcare and basic medicines and the right to education; welcomes the EU statement that constructive engagement with Cuba at this time is the most responsible course of action; and calls upon the Government to respect Cuba’s right to self-determination and resist the aggressive forces within the US Administration who are openly planning their own illegal transition in Cuba.

Yeah, I know. It stands in stark contrast to the actions of Prince Harry noted below.

all action, no talk

I’m not a huge Royalist - I’m a republican in every sense of the word - but I have
nothing but admiration for Prince Harry:

LONDON, Feb 28 (Reuters) - Prince Harry, third in line to the British throne, has been secretly serving as a combat soldier on the front lines in Afghanistan for 2-1/2 months, the Ministry of Defence said on Thursday.

He didn’t have to go - far from it, the MOD has been trying to keep him out of combat since he graduated Sandhurst - and when he did go, he went in secret.

Of course Prince Andrew piloted helicopters on combat missions during the Falklands war, but that is qualitatively different from having one’s boots on the ground, so to speak.

Good for him.

William F. Buckley, Jr., dead at 82

I can’t even believe this. William F. Buckley has died.

I’m devastated to report that our dear friend, mentor, leader, and founder William F. Buckley Jr., died this morning in his study in Stamford, Connecticut.

He died while at work; if he had been given a choice on how to depart this world, I suspect that would have been exactly it. At home, still devoted to the war of ideas.

As you might expect, we’ll have much more to say here and in NR in the coming days and weeks and months. For now: Thank you, Bill. God bless you, now with your dear Pat. Our deepest condolences to Christopher and the rest of the Buckley family. And our fervent prayer that we continue to do WFB’s life’s work justice.

Yes, thank you, “Bill.” (It seems weird calling the man Bill; “Sir” seems so much more appropriate.) I’ve been a fan for…forever. Even as a kid I read him and watched him on Sunday teevee. I guess at his age it shouldn’t be so shocking, but I guess it never even crossed my mind that he would ever be gone. I’m speechless.

UPDATE: Finally up on Drudge, with a link.

Buckley had for years been withdrawing from public life, starting in 1990 when he stepped down as top editor of the National Review. In December 1999, he closed down “Firing Line” after a 23-year run, when guests ranged from Richard Nixon to Allen Ginsberg. “You’ve got to end sometime and I’d just as soon not die onstage,” he told the audience.

“For people of my generation, Bill Buckley was pretty much the first intelligent, witty, well-educated conservative one saw on television,” fellow conservative William Kristol, editor of the Weekly Standard, said at the time the show ended. “He legitimized conservatism as an intellectual movement and therefore as a political movement.”

Precisely.

Hamas Bunny about Danes: “I will bite them and eat them!”

Islamotards still raging about the Mohammed cartoons two years after the original Cartoon Jihad. They are insane. And worse, they’re still teaching their children their insanity (not that I expect that to change any time soon).

Here are all twelve of the original Jyllands-Posten Mohammed cartoons, in case you’ve forgotten. The Islamotards haven’t.

Best Movie Rants?

So I was just surfing around Amazon and stumbled into this forum, where they were talking about “best movie rants.”

A couple of my favorites: Bluto in Animal House (”was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?”), Gunny Hartman in Full Metal Jacket, Jules in Pulp Fiction…

Oh, and of course King Leonidas in 300. Madness!

And of course, Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro, and Jack Nicholson have countless good ones.

So, what are your favorites? I’ll post ‘em if y’all want (and if I can find them!).

Star Wars According to a Three Year-Old

Since Vinnie the Brat thought the kitty video was lame, I found something else I know he’ll like. This is just too cute for words. And no kitties.

God, she’s too cute!!! Obi Kenobi! (You just know she loves saying that.)

Here’s her dad, who rocks for leaving this message at the video link.

Business inquiries/agents: Thanks for your interest. At the current time we have no intention of exposing our little one to the destroyer of youth that is the entertainment industry.

That’s a smart dad. :)

EEK! I got meme’d!

Eh, okay. Only ’cause the Anchoress asked. (Man, I hate these things!) Besides, I’ve been drowning in my Wordpress database for hours and I need a break.

The Meme: Share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself.

Okay, here goes.

1. Like the Anchoress, I hate all fruit. Unlike her, I find oranges revolting, but I like orange juice (NO PULP, please!!!).

2. I have an incurable sweet tooth. No, fruit does not count. When I’ve tried to stop eating bucketloads of refined sugars, I gain weight and feel like crap. I’m not diabetic or hypoglycemic, so shut up. :P

3. I do not do mornings well. For my entire adult life, I’ve needed at least two (and usually three) alarm clocks to wake up, no matter how early I get to sleep. I’m much happier living about six hours later than everyone else, which means I’ve had lots of “conversations” online with people in distant time zones. ;)

4. I can’t stand going to movie theaters. Can. Not. Stand. It. I only go when I’m taking my daughter to see a movie she wants to see. Netflix FTW!

5. My daughter has 54 Webkinz, because I like them too. Heeeee! (We also like Club Penguin!)

6. I still have a Bush-Cheney ‘04 sticker on my car, and it’s going nowhere. So do a whole lot of other people around here. I think “nukular” is funny, and I think he intentionally says it just to jerk the BDS libs’ chains. I’m gonna miss Dubya when he goes home to Crawford next year. (Take THAT, hippies!)

So I’m supposed to tag six other people. :sigh:
All right–I’ll tag…Merri, Rightwingsparkle, Greta, Nicki, Vivian, and BSC Beth.
You dudes got off lucky this time, ’cause I was going to tag just dudes for the hell of it, but I’m feeling charitable. Nevermind the six women I tagged will probably kill me. ;)
