HELL FROZEN OVER!

DATELINE HELL..................Global warming proponents are scrambling today to explain how Hell, the warmest place in the universe was frozen over. Reports say that Tuesday's HIGH was

-32 degrees and are expected to drop to -52 degrees over night. The MSNBC News team stationed in Hell was unable to file a report because of the weather.

Experts are also at a loss to explain why Pigs have been seen flying.

SCOTT BROWN WINS THE SENATE SEAT IN MASSACHUSETTS.

Speaking on a condition of anonymity, a senior aid said that Barack Obama was locked inside a room listening to the Righteous Brothers "You've lost that loving feeling" over and over and over again.

Ted Kennedy could not be reached for comment

AMERICAN CITIZENSHIP 101

Vice President Joe Biden said at a Florida fundraiser Sunday that the 60-seat threshold for passing legislation in the Senate put a dangerous new roadblock in the way of American government.

"As long as I have served, ... I've never seen, as my uncle once said, the constitution stood on its head as they've done. This is the first time every single solitary decision has required 60 senators," Biden said. "No democracy has survived needing a supermajority."

Despite that dire warning, Biden said he's "optimistic" the country will appreciate the administration's accomplishments: "The American people are very smart, and we'll demonstrate by November that the project is working."

Joseph Biden

Vice President

United States of America

The filibuster, Electoral College, should both be stopped at any cost. Term limits need to be enacted immediately. So that senators and representatives all serve two years, twice if elected again. Organized religion should be fined heavily when they try to stop, change or get involved in the country�s political system.

The filibuster is total nonsense!

Popular vote should be the only conclusion to any election.

Almost as insane as the population of ---641,481--- in North Dakota getting the same level of representation in the Senate as ---36,756,666--- in California.

But until we can deal with the overall problem of EXTREMELY disproportionate level of representation in the Senate that is making the country artificially conservative, let's deal with the filibuster that is only adding to that problem.

"Lifecoaches"

democrat poster

Whew! Where do we start? I am almost speechless. If this is what we have in this country as far as representatives and "educated" citizens, will the last person leaving please turn off the lights and bring the flag?

We live in a REPRESENTATIVE REPUBLIC. We do NOT live in a democracy. We have a Representative Republic for several reasons, the most important is that EVERYONE in this country has a say, through their representatives. In the senate, each state is represented equally. That is to say that New York has no more influence than Idaho.

In the house of representatives, each state has the number of representatives assigned to them based on population. New York may have 23 while Idaho may have 3. It is the same idea behind the Electoral College. It is set up so that the larger states like New York, California, Texas and Florida can't elect a president alone. The smaller states have their say too. So states like Idaho, North Dakota, Iowa and Kansas have their say as well.

That's the beauty of this country and of our founding fathers.

Now it is unbelievable that a Vice President and a senator for 30 years doesn't understand this process. The process served Biden well for 30 years. He was a master at using it to his party's advantage, now when things aren't going that smoothly for his party, well we have to blow the whole thing up and start over?

Biden knows the process, he knows how to use the system. He has been a part of filibusters. He has been part of super majorities. He has also been part of those who have maneuvered to change senate rules to benefit his party.

The notion that "Organized Religion should be fined heavily when they try to stop, change or get involved in the country�s political system." is NONSENSE! "Organized Religion" is made up of American citizens who have every right to make their views known. As citizens, they have the right to vote and vote in blocks. If a senator or representative is worried about a block of voters, then so be it.

Should there be term limits? You Betcha!

Should the Electoral College be abolished? NO.

Should this country change from a Representative Republic? NO

Should American citizens learn civics and how their country work? YES

KUDOS TO JASON

Although this correspondent has been accused of being a political hack, I do try and give props when props are due. Such is the case today. Congressman Jason Altmire deserves props for what he has done.

For those of you who don't know, or who have been under a rock for the past week, there was a major earthquake in Haiti. A couple of local girls from Ben Avon (outside of Pittsburgh) run an orphanage down there. Well, the orphanage was reduced to rubble. Cries for help rang out around Pittsburgh and surrounding areas. Congressman Altmire was contacted a moved heaven and earth to get ALL of the orphans out of Haiti and as of this morning, in Pittsburgh.

We say well done to Congressman Altmire!

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE

WELL, WHAT A WICKED WEB WE WEAVE!

This story comes to us from KDKA Radio.

There is more to the story of the orphans being brought back from Haiti. It appears that Mary Beth Buchanan (NO friend of this blog) had everything set up and ready to go. She had the doctors from AGH (Allegheny General Hospital), Kentucky Adoption (who had the legal authority for this orphanage), medical supplies and planes in place. The only thing she did not have was a release from the State Department.

Enter Jason Altmire and Ed Rendell. They swoop in with a team from UPMC (Pittsburgh's Children's Hospital), planes and a release from the State Department.

Kentucky Adoption was has legal authority has been left out of the loop and has no idea what is going on. They are demanding answers and have started legal proceedings.

(EDITOR'S NOTE: Some steps have been left out for brevity, but the events are correct.)

So here is Buchanan a possible candidate against Altmire, she has everything in place, ready to go and Altmire and Rendell swoop in and become the knights in shining armor. To Buchanan's credit, she is downplaying the events saying only that she is glad all the children are in Pittsburgh and safe.

We're use to Rendell's bottom feeding. It is no surprise that Fast Eddy would ace out AGH and replace them with his hack friends at UPMC. It is also no surprise that this piece of dog excrement that has resided in Harrisburg for the last eight years would orchestrate such an endeavor.

In a related development, Anderson Cooper at CNN is looking into how and why Rendell was able to get an aircraft into Haiti when doctors and nurses who are desperately needed are unable to get flights into the country and why he was able to hold up flights coming into the country.

It is sad, so very sad that politics even enter into this picture. For someone to use this for ANY political gain is wrong on so many levels. IF any of this is correct, then Jason Altmire is another piece of dog excrement. This corespondent was teetering on endorsing Altmire especially if Mary Beth Buchanan was the Republican nominee. While I do not agree with many of his positions, Altmire has stood up against BHO on several key issues. If, however Altmire is truly just another piece of dog crap, he neither deserves, nor should be given kudos for anything.

More to come as more details come to light.

MAKE THE BASTARDS PAY UNTIL IT HURTS EDITION

THEY'RE GREEDY

THEY MAKE MONEY

THEY'RE EVIL

So now BHO and the boys are really going to show Americans that they are on the side of the righteous and mighty. What better way than to stick it to the banks! Their new scheme is to "TAX" the banks who took the tarp money.

Never mind the fact that the banks have paid back the money and paid it back with INTEREST. Never mind that the Federal Reserve made more money than it ever has because of the interest paid back. Never mind that the shareholders are looking to re-coup their money, after all, the banks are evil. They caused this mess, they should pay, pay, pay.

Or should they?
I have connections at a several major banks (most are listed above) and these connections are pretty high up. (How and why I know these people is not your concern) Did you know that several of the banks didn't want the TARP money? I know for a fact one CEO told the government they didn't want or need the money and he was told, "You'll shut up and take the money, otherwise we'll audit your bank every month for the next four years." They wouldn't have been able to conduct business with all the audits so they took the money. When they wanted to pay it back, they were told they couldn't. They were told they'll pay the money back "When we say you will."

So let's review. Many of the banks didn't want the money, were forced to take the money, were not allowed to pay the money back until they were told they could and now when they were allowed to pay the loans back with interest, the government wants to make them pay an additional tax.

How can they get away with this you may ask? Because the banks are an easy target. They have been portrayed as evil and have been made the bad guys in the sub prime meltdown. If they banks are getting screwed, the average idiot on the street is saying, "It's about time they paid for this mess they caused."

So now the government is going to clean up this mess and make the evil banks pay for the transgressions of the state.

The government should clean up their own mess before they do anything.

SOMETHINGS, I THINK, I THINK EDITION

WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS, BLAME THE YANKEES!

Politics is a dirty business. It can get nasty, dirty and when you are running scared, you say some of the dumbest things imaginable. Obama is scared, Clinton is scared, Harry Reid is scared and Martha Coakley is so scared, she said that former Boston Red Sox great Curt Schilling (who is supporting her opponent Scott Brown) she said that Curt Schilling is a Yankee fan!

Will you just shut up, pick up your commemorative T-shirt on the way out the door and leave?
Right now as I write this, it LOOKS like Scott Brown will be the next senator from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Obama and Clinton are both up there campaigning for Ms. Coakley, so anything is possible, but all indications right now, show that Scott Brown is winning.

It will be fun to see how the dems spin this one.

One thing that is scary. If Brown wins, the democrats are saying that they will use a procedural rule called reconciliation to pass the health care bill with only 51 votes.

Using reconciliation would likely force democrats to scale back their health-care plans. The procedure is designed to make deficit-cutting easier by reducing the number of votes needed to pass unpopular tax increases and spending cuts. Lawmakers can’t include policy changes that the parliamentarian deems have only an “incidental” connection to budget-cutting, and senators would need 60 votes to override those rulings.

If the dems use this, there will surely be a court battle.

CASS SUNSTEIN UPDATE

You remember Cass? He's Obama’s appointee to head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs. Well old Cass has come up with some"creative" ways to "regulate" what is being said about his boss, or if anyone says anything against his boss or his boss's policies.

From Prison Planet:

Cass Sunstein, president Obama’s appointee to head the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, and the man who outlined a plan for the government to infiltrate “conspiracy groups” in order to undermine them, is in direct line for a promotion to Supreme Court Justice.

Sunstein, already in an advanced position of power in the White House as Regulatory czar, has already called for strict restrictions on gun ownership, an internet “Fairness Doctrine”, and an effective ban on free speech where dissenting opinions to those of the government are expressed.

Suntein’s name was on various shortlists to replace Justice David Souter last year following his retirement, and prior to the appointment of Sonia Sotomayor. Sunstein’s name was also touted for the Supreme Court before Obama even took office in November 2008.

His close personal relationship with Obama should set alarm bells ringing for anyone who values the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, particularly as Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, now aged 75, is likely to take retirement soon following illness, and with Justice John Paul Stevens now aged 90.

Sunstein and Obama go way back from their faculty days at the University of Chicago law school and are firm friends. Sunstein worked as an advisor to Obama during his presidential campaign and was drafted into the White House soon after Obama won the election.

As Obama’s “Information Czar”, Sunstein effectively interprets the law for the Executive. Sunstein operates in a similar, but much more elevated, role to that of former Justice Department lawyer John Yoo, who infamously re-interpreted the law to legally sanction torture under the Bush Administration.

As we highlighted in our article yesterday, Sunstein has outlined plans for the government to infiltrate “conspiracy groups”, including the 9/11 Truth Movement, in order to undermine them via postings on chat rooms and social networks, as well as real meetings.

Sunstein has effectively penned the blueprint for a Cointelpro “provocateur” style program to silence what have become the government’s most vociferous and influential critics.

The specifics of the plans must be read in full in order to gauge their extreme nature and the threat Sunstein poses to the freedom in America.

On page 14 of Sunstein’s January 2008 white paper entitled “Conspiracy Theories,” he proposed that “under imaginable conditions” the government “might ban conspiracy theorizing” and could “impose some kind of tax, financial or otherwise, on those who disseminate such theories.”

In effect, Obama’s information czar wants to tax or ban outright, as in make illegal, opinions and ideas that the government doesn’t approve of.

Sunstein’s definition of a “conspiracy theorist” encompasses those who question manmade global warming and, most bizarrely, anyone who believes that sunlight is healthy for their bodies.

Presumably if Sunstein had been in power in the latter middle ages he would have attempted to tax and then ban the work of Galileo Galilei for subscribing to the theory that the Earth was not the centre of the universe and that it actually revolved around the Sun.

When he’s not going after those evil sunlight lovers, Sunstein advocates Internet censorship via enforced and regulated links in news pieces to opposing opinions.

Sunstein himself later retracted that proposal, explaining that it would be “too difficult to regulate [the Internet] in a way that would respond to those concerns”, and admitting that it was “almost certainly unconstitutional.”

Sunstein has also called for the re-writing of the First Amendment, and has even proposed a mandatory celebration of tax day in America.

His views on the Second Amendment have also raised serious concerns. In his book “Radicals in Robes,” he wrote: “[A]lmost all gun control legislation is constitutionally fine.”

See old Cass has the idea that if you disagree with the government and voice your opinion, you should pay a tax. If you believe in conspiracies and belong to a group, the government should infiltrate your group and of course, you should pay a tax. Since 70% of Americans believe that Lee Harvey Oswald did not act alone, are we going to be taxed?

On one hand this is so laughable, I couldn't make this stuff up! This is a comic's best material. On the other hand, this is so damn scary that people like this are in this administration.

I urge you to look up Cass Sunstein. Just Google him and read his "beliefs." If you don't believe a word I am telling you (and you shouldn't. you should always check and double check everything you read and hear.) check this guy out. Just Google him and see what this jackass is all about.

BAD NEWS

From National Journal:

A year into his tenure, a majority of Americans would already vote against Pres. Obama if the '12 elections were held today, according to a new survey.

The Allstate/National Journal Heartland Monitor poll shows 50% say they would probably or definitely vote for someone else. Fully 37% say they would definitely cast a ballot against Obama. Meanwhile, just 39% would vote to re-elect the pres. to a 2nd term, and only 23% say they definitely would do so.

Obama's first year in office has been marked by an unemployment rate that surged to 10%, an increased commitment of troops to Afghanistan and a health care battle that has taken a serious political toll on the WH.

Obama's approval rating is down to 47%, the poll showed, a 14-point drop since the April survey. 45% disapprove, up 17 points from April. Only 41% say they trust Obama more than Congressional GOPers, while 33% pick the GOP over the WH. That 8-point gap is down from a 21-point edge Obama sported as recently as Sept.

Just 34% say the country is moving in the right direction, down 13 points since April, and 55% say it is off on the wrong track, up 13 points over the same period.

But as GOPers focus on taxes and spending, that message seems to be causing Obama the most harm. Among those who believe Obama's policies have moved the country in the wrong direction, 45% cite spending and government regulation as a top cause for their opposition.

Meanwhile, those who think Obama's policies are moving the country down the right track largely cite long-term benefits of his initiatives.

In the meantime, health care legislation is by no means popular, but a majority of Americans don't oppose the legislation yet. 44% said they support the legislation under consideration, down 5 points from the last poll in Sept., while 46% oppose it.

The poll, conducted by Financial Dynamics, surveyed 1,200 adults between Jan. 3-7 for a margin of error of +/- 2.8%.

Man, oh Manishewitz. What a difference a year makes. It is not just the National Journal poll, it's Rasmussen, Gallop, even CBS in their poll says no one is going to vote for this guy again. To me, it is like re-living the Carter election again. IF everyone who SAYS they voted for Ford, would have ACTUALLY voted for Ford, he would have won by a Biblical landslide.

Don't get all giddy. Two weeks in politics is a lifetime and BHO and the democrats can certainly rebound. Look around at the Republicans, there ain't NO one out there ready to reap the rewards.

The Republicans have just a few months to get their do-do in one sock. They need to go back to their core beliefs. They need to read them, know them, embrace them. If the Republicans go back to their core beliefs, believe them and live them, they will succeed. If they don't, then the dems will be back in office, screwing everything up.

ONE bright spot looks to be Scott Brown. He's the Republican running for the senate in Massachusetts, running for the seat formerly held by the very late Ted Kennedy. Scott Brown is making his case against the health care bill and the democrats and so far, he HAS A CHANCE to win the seat. Something that was not even thought of two weeks ago.
Now, I have edited this down as I had gone in depth as to what I thought was going to happen in the 2010 election, but to be honest, it even bored me.

Surfer Dude Obama and his buddies are starting to realize that they are in deep do-do.

Funny thing, the people they underestimate and ignore, call names and put down, aren't taking a rest. Some, many, a lot of people thought the movement would have died down by now, but it hasn't. in fact, the movement has grown by leaps and bounds and is spreading that, well no, better not use that example. But it is growing and people are not forgetting.

Even a small loss by the dems will shake things up. I honestly feel that they have underestimated the resolve of the Tea Party and as such will feel the sting at the ballot box.

Chris Dodd saw the handwriting on the wall and jumped ship like all rats do. One more mis-step and Dingy Harry Reid will do the same thing. Others are on shaky ground, Specter, Boxer, Rangle.

So, within a + or - of 3%, I think this was an informative posting.

THERE'S A REASON A DONKEY IS THEIR MASCOT

THE PARTY OF THE DONKEY HAS A LOT OF ASSES

Have you been watching the democrats circle the wagon around Harry Reid? There's a new book coming out about the 2008 election called "Game Change." The book is loaded with lots of "inside" information about EVERYBODY who participated in the election. I hear they are working on a sequel this time about EVERYONE who voted in the election, even the dead ones!

Anyway in the book, Harry was talking about BHO and described the future President as a

"light-skinned" African-American "with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one."

The statement in and of itself is reminiscent of Joe Biden saying that BHO was "clean and articulate."

How about Bill Clinton telling Teddy Kennedy that Obama "a couple of years ago would have been getting us coffee."

So all the democrats are backing Harry, not like the Republicans when they threw Trent Lott under the bus. Harry has such a great record in helping African-American's that he is given a pass because of all the good he's done over the years.

Now you remember Trent's grave sin? He was making a 100 year old man feel good at his birthday when he told Strom Thurmond that if people had voted for him when he ran for President we'd all be better off. Harry and the gang got the rakes out and started raking Trent over the coals. Well Trent lost his job as Majority Leader.

Now Harry basically does the same thing and he is given a pass. Can you say

D O U B L E S T A N D A R D?

Personally, I could care less. Let him keep his powerful position. Harry will be out of work next November and he'll be gone PERMANENTLY!

The democrats really picked the right mascot.

I'M SORRY, SO SORRY / TWIN SPIN EDITION

IT'S A TWIN SPIN EDITION! PLAYING THE STACKS OF WAX. SOLID GOLD TO MAKE YOU FEEL OLD!

SPECIAL DEDICATION EDITION!

BUT FIRST:

We awoke this morning to the news that Chris Dodd the senator from Connecticut is not going to seek another term this year.
The hand writing was on the wall for Chris. Co-architect of the sub-prime melt down, his receipt of a "special" mortgage with Countywide and his connection with the bail outs and Obama care told him he could not be re-elected.

One half of the Super Duo of the Kennedy and Dodd Waitress Sandwich Maker, Chris Dodd was a slim ball of the first degree. Although we would have preferred to have seen him leaving the Capital in handcuffs, we bid him a long overdue farewell.

The news of Dodd and North Dakota's Dorgan leaving the senate is not good news for the democrats as more and more read the tea-leaves which segues nicely into today's topic. Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Brenda Lee:

ONE GUY WHO KNOWS ALL ABOUT SAYING I'M SORRY IS;

When 9-11 happened, we were told we had to "understand" the poor terrorist. Their "frustrations" was a result of the poverty they were forced to live in and mostly because of what the big bad United States had done to them for hundreds, if not thousands of years.

Of course with the last Yabba Dabba Dooer who tried to blow up a plane being from a well to do family, those theories have been blown out of the water.
But then along came BHO. He walked on water, lights from heaven shone on him and he was the savior who was going to restore our good name around the world. He promptly went on a world apology tour, telling our enemies that we are so very sorry for having offended them in anyway. He announced that he was closing the detention center at Guantanamo Bay AND giving the terrorist all the rights of American citizens so they can be tried in an American court.

Let me digress for a moment. So you close Gitmo because the Yabba Dabba Dooers are using it as a "recruiting" tool. So you move these trick or treaters to Illinois and that is NOT going to be used as a recruiting tool?
Contrast this with the way they mocked American citizens who are fed up with the way the democrats are running this country. This administration is more concerned with placating terrorist, than they are concerned for the rights of those Americans who protest the administration.

This administration is more concerned about how those who want to kill us feel, than how everyday average Americans feel.

This administration is more concerned about making sure we don't offend those that hate us and could care less about offending those who don't agree with the direction they are taking this country.

They are so concerned about saying the right thing about those that want to kill us, but call a grass roots movement "astro-turf" and tea baggers. Their leadership compares American's who are fed up with them as Nazis and say they are fearful of rhetoric turning into violence.

The message is starting to get across to them. Dorgan, Dodd, who's next?

November 2010 is not that far away.

Before we leave, I received another special request with a dedication. This goes out to Harry & Nancy from an "Astro-turfer." Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Connie Francis,

"You had your way, now you must pay. I'm glad that you're sorry now."
