McCain uses ‘Lord of the Rings’ to make fun of tea party

When it comes to selecting the dumbest state in the union it is usually a Southern State. How about a Southwestern State like AZ?

Having McCain on your side is like living in the same house with Jeffery Dahmer.

Describing the tea party's strategy to force a rewrite of the Constitution by triggering a default, he concluded that their thinking was along the lines of something from "Lord of the Rings."

"And the tea party hobbits could return to Middle Earth having defeated Mordor," he said. "This is the kind of crack political thinking that turned Sharon Angle and Christine O'Donnell into GOP Senate nominees. The reality is, the debt limit will be raised one way or another."

If McCain would have become president we would probably be in the same mess we are now. Only difference...an additional 15 million illegals.

The "war hero" thing which was the only attribute I respected in him is starting to wear pretty thin, and his incessant criticism of Republicans should no longer be tolerated. If he lived in Texas he wouldn't even be a Senator.

2 mad men...2 different flavors of reporting

The Norway killer

Breivik has been identified in the media as a "right wing Christian fundamentalist." The media wasted no time shouting this from the rooftops even before the gun smoke vanished in the air. BTW Breivik is about as Christian as Timothy McVeigh.

By comparison when Nidal Hasan (a psychiatrist who probably got his degree from the Muslim Brotherhood) killed 13 people and then shouted "Allah Akbar", we were told by the media and the administration "not to jump to conclusions." Holder was so befuddled he couldn't even bring himself to say the word Muslim. Liberals crawled from beneath their rocks in number chastising the mere thought Hasan was a Muslim Terrorist.

Am I shocked. Yes. I'm shocked the Norway event wasn't carried out by Muslims. Be honest America. When the story first broke what was the first thing that crossed your mind?

I'm old enough to remember a time when the media

 reported the news. The where, the when, the how, and the why.

 Kind of like Sgt.Joe Friday on Dragnet.

 The media has strayed off course from reporting facts and truth. Instead they marinade it with flavoring, tastiness, tang, relish, and bite.

As one newspaper like's to say...


All the news fit to print.


That is...

After we sift it through our  journalistic subjective sieve.

Scraping the bottom of the barrel

  Seems like how low can you go not only applies to Limbo. It is amazing what some networks will resort to out of pure desperation.  The talent pool must consist of the remaining reptiles left in Pelosi's ongoing swamp drainage program.

Lets see... CNN had Sleazebag Spitzer until he was cancelled.

Before that Olbermann bit the dust on MSNBC.

I thought for sure Weiner was going to have a show on texting etiquette.

Followed by The Casey Anthony Show on child rearing.

When CBS's 60 Minutes did a puff piece about Al Sharpton in May, Lesley Stahl revealed the Reverend refuses to say anything bad about President Obama.

On Sunday's "Reliable Sources," former MSNBC contributor Cenk Uygur claimed he might have been replaced by Sharpton in the 6PM time slot because of the "Reverend's" undying devotion to the current White House resident.

How did this all come about? Because the White House did not like the "tone" of Cenk Uygur.

One thing about Uncle Al he is gen-u-wine

There's actually two stories here. One is the over reaching power of this presidency. And the other is all about hypocrisy. 

On A tip from Ed Kilbane

The real world

☟

The Rev. Al Sharpton, who has vowed to clean up his fiscal house, has a new tax lien to pay.

Sharpton owes $359,973 to the IRS for 2009 personal income tax, according to documents on file with the city.

Public records show he owes a total of $3.7 million in city, state and federal taxes, including penalties, dating to 2002. But Sharpton's spokeswoman, Rachel Noerdlinger, said that he had paid back "well over seven figures" as part of agreements with the state and IRS and that the liens remained on the books as "a matter of bureaucracy."

Sharpton made $250,000 as head of the nonprofit National Action Network in 2009, a year that ended with the group owing $1.1 million in taxes and having just $36,397 cash on hand.

The organization also pays for first-class or charter travel for Sharpton and other NAN staff, according to its 2009 tax return. Noerdlinger declined to say for whom.

 Luckily he didn't pay his taxes so he should fit right in the Obama administration.

Through the annals of time I cannot think of a more inferior waste of skin then Al Sharpton.

Pelosi calls for ethics investigation of Rep. David Wu

 Pelosi has gotten so good at draining the swamp she has become an honorary member of the Okefenokee National Wildlife Refuge.

Nice outfit

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chairman Steve Israel (N.Y.) issued statements Sunday night calling for the House ethics committee to look into the conduct of Rep. David Wu (D-Ore.).

"I call on the Ethics Committee to initiate an investigation into the allegations against Congressman Wu," Pelosi said in the statement. "With deep disappointment and sadness about this situation, I hope that the Ethics Committee will take up this matter."

Wu is alleged to have had a sexual encounter with a woman against her will in late 2010, an episode first reported by the Portland Oregonian. The newspaper reported that Wu has acknowledged the encounter but insisted it was consensual.

One Democratic source said that Wu has decided not to seek reelection in 2012 and the Oregonian and Politico are reporting that he will not. But the congressman's office did not return an e-mail seeking comment Sunday night regarding his plans. He is not expected to resign.

Wu has said nothing specific about the incident with the woman, issuing a statement Saturday calling it "very serious" and adding: "I have absolutely no desire to bring unwanted publicity, attention, or stress to a young woman and her family."

This is the latest allegation of bizarre behavior by Wu at the end of last year — actions that include sending odd pictures to his staff and taking prescribed medication that had not been prescribed to him.

He has already drawn primary challenges from two Democrats — state Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian and state Rep. Brad Witt. Republicans hope to target the Democratic-leaning seat in the Portland area, but are likely to do so only if Wu is in the race.

Easy come easy go

After almost one trillion dollars spent in stimulus he had this to say:

Why can't Americans see they've been had? After almost a trillion dollars wasted he has the balls to act cavalier, laughing about it like he dropped 20 bucks in a Vegas slot machine.

To make matters worse the idiots surrounding him  in this video seem to be caught up in the merriment!

I have come to the conclusion perhaps this country deserves what it gets. Stupid people make stupid decisions. And Obama is certainly one of them.
