Hump Day Report: Hillary’s Whereabouts Revealed!

Waldo

ALOHA, ALL!!  For two weeks, not a sound, peep, cackle-laugh or even written statement from still serving Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.  Yet this isn’t considered odd?  She supposedly had a concussion (dubbed “The Immaculate Concussion” by Laura Ingraham) but no status reports or updates…for two weeks.  That must have been some doozy of a concussion.  Frankly, if she was so laid up because of this shouldn’t we be concerned about her  potential presidential ambitions?  Ask any doctor – he or she will tell you that a concussion this severe is, well, a coma.  But take heart!  Finally, it was announced today that Hillary would “return to work next week.”  OK.  Let’s see what her work schedule will really be like.  And look for the concussion to rear its head again (ha, ha) when it’s time for her to testify about Benghazi.  The story will be that she’s still suffering from its after-effects and isn’t it cruel that those nasty Republicans want to put her in front of Congress anyhow??  To answer demeaning and pointed questions??  How heartless!  Senate Republicans Refuse to Confirm Kerry Until Hillary Testifies  The Clinton saga of trickery continues…reminds me of that old soap opera “As the World Turns.”  New title:  ”As the Clintons Deceive.”  Look for Hillary to have amnesia next.

Hillary Clinton Expected to Return to Work Next Week After spending Nearly Three Weeks Out Due to Concussion 

It’s all part of Clinton’s ‘cohesive strategy’ and it’s been used before:  The Fix Is In:  Hillary’s Benghazi Cover-up Like Vince Foster’s Death Investigation  ”Cohesive strategy is a smoke and mirrors public relations trick where the White House tells Americans and investigators what they want them to know as opposed to what really happened, and how their scripted version becomes the so-called truth, the ‘talking points,’ the narrative picked up by the media.”

How sweet......

How sweet……

In Other News:

No New Offer From Obama at White House ‘Cliff’ Meeting‘  ”President Obama and congressional leaders met for more than an hour Friday to try to reach a breakthrough on a fiscal deal. A source familiar with the meeting said Obama would not offer leaders a new offer, but would push them to allow an up-or-down vote on legislation to prevent looming tax hikes and spending cuts set for January.”  A WHOLE HOUR?????  THEY MUST BE EXHAUSTED.

Obama Orders Raise for Biden, Members of Congress, Federal Workers   (Shaka to Brett) ”President Barack Obama issued an executive order to end the pay freeze on federal employees, in effect giving some federal workers a raise. One federal worker now to receive a pay increase is Vice President Joe Biden.”

White House Petition to Deport Piers Morgan Tops 80,000 Signatures  ”For those of you who don’t know who Piers Morgan is, he is an anchor for CNN (now you know why you haven’t heard of him), he is also a rabid anti-gun, half wit brit who has used his soapbox lately to disparage our gun laws.”  And the latest Gallup poll:  Opposition to Handgun Ban Hits All-Time High  Ban opposed, 74/24.  Poor Piers - Britain doesn’t want him, either!  Piers, this is for you (Shaka to Lee)  AWuse1 copyChicago Hits 500 Homicides  ”Here’s your gun control failure of the year. Mayor Rahm Emanuel and the Bradys were unavailable for comment.”

RIP to another American hero:  ‘Stormin’ Norman’ Schwarzkopf Dies  ”Along with two combat tours in Vietnam, Schwarzkopf also coordinated American landing forces in the invasion of Grenada in 1983, prior to Operation Desert Storm.”

GOD BLESS AMERICA – PASS THIS ON!!

Happy New Year, HDR Readers – we’ve got our work cut out for us.

Hump Day Report: Feminists Protest Time Magazine

Malala

ALOHA, ALL!!  No, it’s not true…feminists aren’t protesting Time magazine.  But I’m asking myself, “WHY THE HECK NOT???”  As you know by now, Time named Barry/Barack Soetoro/Obama its “Person of the Year.”  Again.  The reason?  Richard Stengle, Time’s Executive Editor, breathlessly explains, “For finding and forging a new majority, for turning weakness into opportunity and for seeking, amid great adversity, to create a more perfect union, Barack Obama is TIME’s 2012 Person of the Year.”  Barf.  And who did Barry beat to win this ridiculous (OOPS!  Sometimes my fingers type uncontrollably)  prestigious award?  Malala Yousafzai.  Don’t recognize the name?  She’s the young Pakistani activist who was shot in the head by the Taliban for her crusade for better girls’ education.  So let’s get this straight:  run up a $16 trillion debt, play a record number of rounds of golf, create class warfare, decimate the military, rule by fiat and basically be an arrogant egomaniac and you can be “Person of the Year.”   Meanwhile, a young woman who risked her life to create a better world for her fellow countrywomen is snubbed.  Where are the feminists, indeed.

Time Reveals Its Short List For Person of The Year

The Choice:  Time’s Person of the Year

Runner-Up:  Malala Yousafzai

Joe Biden Was Behind The Robert Bork Nomination Smear  ”A quarter of a century ago, a good and great man was slandered to maintain liberal judicial power. It was Vice President Joe Biden, who as a senator, led the injustices committed against Judge Robert Bork.”  Farewell to a great man:  Robert Bork, RIP

Obama:  Task Force on Gun Violence To Offer ‘Real Reforms’ By January  “The group, to be led by Vice President Biden, is tasked with finding solutions to reduce gun violence in the wake of the Newtown, Conn., elementary school shooting.”  Seriously??????  Is Biden going to focus like a laser beam on this just like he did with the stimulus money?  What a joke!  Of course, don’t expect Biden to get confused with facts like these:  More Americans Favor School Officials Having Guns than Weapon Ban  (Shaka to Biz)

From our friends at The Looking Spoon:  Spoon

Check out Piers “Doofus” Morgan’s take on guns (Shaka to hubby):  

The Benghazi Report:  How Smoothly Washington Washes Away Its Scandals   ”Although it ardently sold the phony video meme idea for weeks, the Obama White House was not implicated in the official report. Although she’s been in charge of the State Department for the entire term, Clinton was not implicated in the official report.  An aide said Clinton had sent word to Congress she’d be willing to meet with members later which, of course, is what she’s been saying all fall. These darn schedules just haven’t worked out, you see.”

Hey Hillary – it’s a good thing you have a “concussion” because:   Ex-US Marine Arrested in Mexico for Possession of Family Heirloom    and  American Pastor Imprisoned While Visiting Family In Iran  Otherwise, there would be no excuse for the State Department not doing EVERYTHING in its power to get these Americans freed!

Poor Hillary – you thought you had a headache before:  Benghazi Report disqualifies Hillary Clinton For White House in 2016  ”Hillary Clinton could answer the many questions of accountability and cause that this report doesn’t, but it’s likely part of her campaign strategy not to. She is not likely to want to address a report that presents a depth of State Department incompetence and mismanagement that should disqualify her for any office, let alone the presidency.  The Peter Principle — or is it the Hillary Principle? — should not extend to the White House. For her, it should end at the State Department.”

Hump Day Report: How To Self-Impale On a Bayonet

Be sure to check out more great Branco cartoons – click on the image!

ALOHA, ALL!!  Did you hear that?  It’s the awful sucking sound of Obama’s campaign sinking like the Titanic.  He needed to be Presidential in the final debate and was anything but.  He was a petty, petulant, pissed prevaricator.  Here’s a great overview of some of the lies:  Fact Checking Obama – Ten Lies And Counting   As always, The Heritage Foundation gave an excellent analysis:  Final Presidential Debate 2012:  Experts’ Analyses And Reactions.  But I gotta say, I like my friend NEO’s description the best:  ”Obama looked like a first time candidate for city-council, Romney looked and sounded like the President of the United States of America, in the line of Washington, Lincoln, Roosevelt, Kennedy, and Reagan.”   Yep.  Send in the clowns.

Speaking of clowns…The Ties That Biden  ”How was it that HillStone, a newcomer in the business of home building, landed a massive and potentially lucrative contract to build 100,000 homes in war-torn Iraq? Richter didn’t mince words. It really helps, he said, to have “the brother of the vice president as a partner,” according to a person who was present. The “brother” Richter was referring to during the meeting is James Biden, the younger brother of Vice President Joe Biden.”  And one Ohio voter didn’t mince words with Jovial Joe:  Voter Tells Bide He’s A ‘Good Guy’ But Bad VP  Frankly, I don’t even think he’s a good guy.

Joe’s fans probably think “JOBS” is a three letter word.  Check this out:  Spelling Is Hard  

And isn’t this special!  Dump:  Administration Delivers Subpoenaed Benghazi Docs Hours Before Debate  ”According to Rep. Rogers, files and documents that his committee had been waiting for were finally delivered yesterday at 5:00 PM, just hours before the final Presidential Debate that focused on foreign policy. “It certainly appears to me at at first blush that there was a a political interpretation and that’s always a dangerous thing. I think they put November 6th ahead of our national security.”

BOMBSHELL – Why the dump.  New Emails Reveal That The White House Knew Far More About Benghazi Than They Admit  ”These emails now cast more doubt on the Administration then ever before. They reveal that the White House knew that a terrorist group claimed responsibility for the attack even though they spent more than two weeks claiming that the attack was the result of a spontaneous protest over a YouTube video that was placed online back in July. This now makes it hard for anyone not to be suspicious of what else the White House and the President knew.”

Go ahead – make his day. 

Bayonets can’t save Obama.  Sorry Mr President, But The Troops DO Need Horses And Bayonets!   “For most soldiers, a bayonet or other type of blade is the second most important weapon, behind only the rifle.  As well as being a combat weapon, bayonets are used as multipurpose knives while troops are being deployed overseas. Horses are less important to modern methods of fighting, but they have not yet been entirely phased out.  In 2001, the first U.S. troops to enter Afghanistan did so by riding into the country alongside America’s allies in the Northern Alliance.”  And we also need ships:  Republicans Try To Sink The President On His Comment Over Battleship  ”Republicans believe the comments could become a political liability for the president, particularly in the critical battleground states of Florida and Virginia, which are home to major shipyards…GOP vice presidential nominee Rep. Paul Ryan (Wis.) also shot back against the president’s verbal jab during a Tuesday interview on CBS’s “This Morning.” “The ocean hasn’t shrunk,” Ryan said. “You still have to have enough ships to have the footprint that you need … to keep our strength abroad where it needs to be.”

Gee – why don’t we hear about the crowds at the candidates’ rallies this time?  It couldn’t possibly be because Obama is drawing fewer than Romney, could it?  (Yes, I’m being snarky) Romney Packs Red Rocks  “Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan held a rally at a packed Red Rocks Park and Amphitheater in Morrison, Colo., tonight. It was a sight to behold.”

View of the crowd at Red Rocks from the stage. Those are all people. Real people.

Remember where you heard the “L” word first (Shaka to Cindy for the link).  Romney Landslide Possibilities Emerge  “When Americans get tired of lies, chaos creation, condescending tones and crisis makeup-with corresponding management, voter step in to put an end to the mess! That is what is happening ….The polls are quite likely far beyond the reported 5 points and out of reach for denial by Obama, and he and supporters grasp at straws in desperation.”  BUT WE CAN’T GET COMPLACENT!  BE SURE TO VOTE!!  AND KEEP UP THE PRESSURE ON FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

These people – who are the future of America – are counting on us.

Hump Day Report: Does The TV Make My Ego Look Fat?

Biden: “Beam me up, Scotty!” Ryan: “Yes, please do.”

ALOHA, ALL!!   Wow.  Seriously, Joe Biden?  What a ridiculous display of arrogance and idiocy.  As someone who speaks in front of groups on a regular basis, I know the visual overrules the verbal every time.  And friend (a nod to your reference of Ryan several times), your visual was crappy.  It’s said that television adds 10 pounds to someone’s weight.  In this case, TV added at least that much to Biden’s over-inflated ego and fat head.  Outrageous.  (Shaka to Randy for the photo caption)

The best analysis I’ve seen is from Charles Krauthammer (no surprise – see the video in the link):  Biden’s Disrespectful Condescending Behavior Undid Possible Debate Win  “If you read the transcript, I think it’s dead even,” Krauthammer said. ”If you heard it on radio, Biden won. If you watched on television, he lost.”  Estimates are that 50 million watched it on TV.  He lost.

How the Brits reported it – much more fairly than our press.  Joe Biden Attacks Paul Ryan During Debate  ”With a flash of his teeth – and a lot of finger-jabbing – the Vice President won plaudits from his fans during the debate last night, but his performance ran a very high risk of being seen as bullying and condescending, alienating swing and female voters. Veteran columnist Peggy Noonan described Biden as ‘weirdly aggressive’ and said his bullishness ‘looked mean and second-rate’ as Republicans claimed that Biden interrupted Ryan 82 times during the 90-minute debate.”  BTW, whoever made Joe’s “flashy” teeth should have his or her  dental license revoked.  Horrible!

The GOP quickly had a web ad up about an hour after the debate:  

And how about those “facts” Biden quoted?  Top Ten Worst Lies By Joe Biden In Debate  “This is a bunch of stuff.”  You can say that again!  Here’s the biggest lie that will surely come back to haunt him and Barry:  ”Well, we weren’t told they wanted more security again.” Biden lied through his teeth about the fact that the administration–specifically, the State Department–had been told again and again that security on the ground in Libya, and in Benghazi in particular, was inadequate. The day before, in Congressional hearings on the Libya attacks, former regional security director Eric Nordstrom described his frustration with having those requests turned down by the government bureaucracy: “For me the Taliban is on the inside of the building.”

Make Our Day, Paul Ryan….Please Go There!  Missing In Action – Stimulus ‘Sheriff’ Joe Biden  ”Remember when President Obama bragged about Joe Biden’s fiscal discipline cred in 2009? “To you, he’s Mr. Vice President, but around the White House, we call him the Sheriff,” Obama warned government employees. “Because if you’re misusing taxpayer money, you’ll have to answer to him.”

Shock!!!  Not.  Transparency Fail:  Obama A Guest At VP Moderator’s Wedding  ”…ABC News’ senior foreign correspondent, Martha Raddatz, is not only moderating tomorrow night’s debate between Paul Ryan and Joe Biden, but no less than Barack Obama was a guest at her 1991 wedding.”

Shock!!  Not.  Part II.  Obama’s Ring:  ’There Is No God But Allah’“…according to Arabic-language and Islamic experts, the ring Obama has been wearing for more than 30 years is adorned with the first part of the Islamic declaration of faith, the Shahada: “There is no God except Allah.”

No Media Bias.  None at All.  AP Releases Unflattering Pic Of Mitt  Note my comment:  ”Or…they could have cropped out the girl. If she was my daughter I’d sue the AP.”

Meanwhile, How They Report on Romney in the UK.  Like Father, Like Son A Young Mitt Romney Takes Advice From Dad in Intimate Unpublished Photos  ”The images show a statesman-like figure, clearly loved and respected by his close-knit family. The dynamic patriarch at the center of the 50-year-old pictures is George Romney, but they provide an interesting parallel with the life of Mitt Romney today.”  (Shaka to Biz for the link)

When Will This Blow Up In Obama’s Face?  State Department Did Not Reply To Libya Officer Who Requested More Security  ”When security officer Eric Nordstrom asked for more security in Libya in light of more than 200 security breaches from July 2011 to July 2012, he received no answer. Forty-eight of these recorded breaches took place in Benghazi.”  And:  WaPo Asks – Where Is Hillary These Days?

When Will This Blow Up In Obama’s Face?  Part II.  Obama Fundraising Scandal:  Follow The Money, If You Can  ”…the Obama campaign has apparently been working hard behind the scenes to ensure the story never sees the light of day. Sources report that a taxpayer watchdog group has recently concluded a nine month investigation into both presidential and congressional campaign fundraising practices and uncovered alarming patterns in Obama’s reliance upon smaller, and therefore less transparent donations.”  And: That Obama Donations Story Just Got  A Lot More Serious

Hump Day Report: The ‘Incomplete’ Presidency

ALOHA, ALL!!  If you got an ‘incomplete’ grade in a class, would you pass?  If you got an ‘incomplete’ score on any type of work assignment, would you move up to the next level?  Yet Barack Obama claims his grade on the economy is ‘incomplete’ and he wants more time, he wants to pass…he wants to move on to the next level with another 4 years in office.  It’s time to get rid of this ‘incomplete’ president and elect one who will focus on fixing our problems.  Ryan:  ’Four Years Into A Presidency And It’s Incomplete?’  

(Shaka to Nicki for the image – pretty much sums it up!)

The lies just keep on coming.  Here’s a little video that the lamestream media somehow couldn’t find.  But VOILA!  It vindicates Paul Ryan, accused of lying about that closed GM plant in Janesville, WI.  OOPS – caught with your pants down again, Dems.  

No need to watch Obama’s speech Thursday night – here’s what he’ll say:  

He may repeat some of these:  Ten Worst Lies Of Barack Obama  ”Attempting to select THE ten worst lies told by a pathological liar like Barack Obama is a difficult task. There are so many lies that it is hard to know where to start – a good case can be made for so many of his lies as top ten material.”

And this is Joe Biden(opoulos’) speech – we got an exclusive!  Joe Biden’s Leaked Convention Speech?  Sneak peek:  ”Friends, Romans, countrymen — lend me your ears. I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him. [Suddenly pounding his shoe on the dais.] We will bury you!”  LOL!!

“I’m not always articulate, but when I am, it’s a BIG f*@#in’ deal!”

Looks like plagiarism runs in the DNC family.  San Antonio Mayor ‘Borrows’ Marco Rubio RNC Speech  “My mother fought hard for civil rights so instead of a mop, I could hold this microphone,” said San Antonio Mayor Julián Castro in his DNC Convention speech.”  Hmmmm……

Change they can believe in….because it won’t look like Obama is speaking in an empty stadium.  Obama’s Convention Speech Moved From 73,000 Seat Outdoor Stadium To 20,000 Seat Indoor Arena  Of course, they claim it’s the weather.  Too hot for Joe Biden?  ”Tomorrow night’s forecast for Charlotte calls for isolated thunderstorms and a 30 percent chance of rain. But it’s more likely that a separate but more important forecast found there to be a 100 percent chance of thousands of empty seats in the outdoor stadium.”

Another milestone for Obama.  Debt Clock Hits $16 Trillion As DNC Celebrates Hope and Chair  ”The theme of the convention is “building the economy from the middle out.” But Obama will be relying heavily on the Clinton legacy, not his own, to convince voters he’s the best path to the future. Let’s build a bridge to the 21st Century again! It’s shovel-ready!”  The debt is now $136,260 per household - up 50%under Obama.

Check out the ‘hood just four miles from the DNC freakfest.  Forward?  Charlotte Community In Despair  ”Entire strip malls are abandoned, auto dealers closed, gas stations shut down, restaurants foreclosed and empty. It is so bad, billboards are blank without advertising.”

Here’s what Charles Krauthammer had to say about Michelle Obama’s speech – perfect!  

God & Jerusalem – who needs ‘em?  (Shaka to Scott for the link)  Democratic Platform:  ’God,’ Jerusalem Language Dropped  ”Since the platform was released, the lack of the word “God” has become a rallying cry among some conservatives, especially those who believe that the Obama administration is unfriendly to religion. The Republican platform, released last week, made at least a dozen references to God and included a section on religious liberty.”

Food For Thought:  Does anyone else see the hypocrisy in putting a man who killed a woman (Ted Kennedy) and another man who was accused of rape and assault (Bill Clinton) front and center at a convention that supposedly celebrates women?  Just sayin’….

Final Thought:  ”She told the story of Gandhi.”  Charles Krauthammer, describing Michelle Obama’s speech about her husband at the DNC

Hump Day Report: Speak Out – No Fear!

Ross Murty wore this shirt while catering an event for Obama

ALOHA, ALL!!  When you’re in a group of people, do you talk about Obama’s miserable record?  I know – the response might be eye-rolling, push-back or worse.  So what?  I most often hear “no politics!”  These are usually Obama supporters who don’t want to admit what a horrible job he’s doing.  Try saying, “I know – it’s really depressing what’s happened to our country in the past 4 years – let’s eat!” and leave it at that.  If it prompts more discussion, you’re in.  If not, you’ve gotten your message across anyhow.  Remember, though, that between now and November 6 we need to speak up.  I’ve given you tons of resources to use…facts that Obamabots will be hard pressed to deny (they’ll try anyhow and start personal attacks or get all emotional.  They always do.)  If you’re reticent to speak up, here are a couple of stories that will inspire you:

No Fear!  Awesome:  Caterer For Obama Event Wears Romney Shirt  “No one from the government was there when we were sweating it, when we were building this business,” Murty said. Before him was a bank of chafing dishes filled with smoked beef brisket, pulled pork, vegetable parmesan bake and cheesy hash brown casserole provided to the White House press corps covering the president’s three-day swing across Iowa this week.”

No Fear!  Virginia Bakery Refuses To Serve Biden  ”The owner of Crumb and Get It in Roanoke says he doesn’t agree with the Obama administration’s policies.”  And what does this say?  Secret Service Bought Cupcakes To Thank Baker For Turning Down Biden

No Fear!  Former Obama voters are speaking out:  

No Fear!  Ryan in Ohio Mocks Joe Biden  ”Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.), GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney’s running mate, mocked Vice President Joe Biden Thursday while campaigning in Ohio, by saying “as Joe Biden might say, it’s great to be here in Nevada.”

No Fear!  GOP Convention To Feature Former Obama Co-Chair Artur Davis  ”Former congressman Artur Davis from Alabama, who officially seconded President Obama’s nomination at the 2008 Democratic convention, said on Wednesday that he will cap off a remarkable political metamorphosis by addressing the Republican convention this year — calling for Obama’s defeat.”  Here’s Davis reacting to Slow Joe Biden’s “chains” comment:  

No Fear!  Arizona Makes Another Stand For Rule Of Law On Immigration  ”On Thursday, Governor Jan Brewer enraged the White House, the ACLU and open-borders activists by issuing Executive Order 2012-06, stating that her state reaffirmed the intent of Arizona law on state benefits — from driver’s licenses to in-state college tuition — to illegals, which is a big fat “no” to all of the above.”

In Other News:

Gunman Opens Fire At Conservative Family Research Council Building  ”The shooting happened in Washington, D.C., which is the center of the political media universe. There is more evidence in this case that the shooter had political motivations than in other recent cases (Gabby Giffords, Aurora, to name a few) in which the mainstream media jumped to conclusions about the shooter’s motives, falsely implicating conservatives and the Tea Party.”  You think Andrea Mitchell will report that he’s a LGBT activist?  Virginia Man Charged In Shooting at Family Research Council  

Obama/Biden gaffe machine keeps rolling.  Biden Forgets What Century He’s Living In

And – this picture says it all:  

Is Joe history?  Exchanging Biden’s Gaffes For Hillary’s Incompetence    ”Those who think replacing Biden with Clinton would be trading a buffoon for a hyper-competent global leader are fooling themselves. Rarely in our history have we faced so many challenges abroad with so little success — or so little respect.”  Of course, Barry denies all claims that he’s throwing Joe under the bus:  White House Says Obama Will Stick With Biden  But then there’s this (Shaka to Carl):  Biden Sent Home To Delaware To Start Weekend Early  (BTW, hubby thinks Sarah Palin & John McCain saying that Biden needs to be replaced is brilliant strategy – if he’s replaced now, it will look like Obama is taking advice from them!!)  What say you?

Ryan has energized the ticket.  Wisconsin:  Romney 48%, Obama 47%  And:  After Picking Ryan, Romney Leads In Ohio, Virginia  And:  Romney/Ryan Making Huge Gains Among Young Voters  ”For the first time since he began running for president, Republican Mitt Romney has the support of over 40 percent of America’s youth vote…”

Final Thought:  “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men should do nothing.” Edmund Burke

Hump Day Report: The Three Rs – Romney, Ryan and Reagan

ALOHA, ALL!!  Even though the Democrats are in full spin mode trying to destroy Paul Ryan, Republicans and conservatives are ecstatic over his pick for Romney’s VP.  Let’s face it – Ryan has already been demonized by the Dems over his budget plan.  And while the old attacks about how Ryan’s plan will “end Medicare as we know it” (never mind that Obama already did that) or throw grandma off a cliff, that’s old news.  Deja vu.  Heard that before.  It won’t have the same impact now because it’s simply not a new attack.  Don’t get me wrong, the Romney/Ryan team need to come out strong right NOW and define themselves. It’s important to do this while they have the lamestream media’s attention….before they get distracted by some shiny object.  Voters need to understand the stark contrast between Romney/Ryan and Obama/Biden and why we need to fire the last two.  A friend of mine who voted for Obama in 2008 claims she supported Reagan in the past.  When discussing Romney, she flippantly quipped, “Romney is no Reagan.”  I immediately replied, “How do you know? At this point in his first presidential campaign Reagan wasn’t Reagan.”  *Cricket Sounds*  ;-)

Lots of misinformation is going around about Ryan’s plan for Medicare.  Here’s a simple explanation from Dick Morris that highlights the differences between the Romney/Ryan plan and Obama’s plan (one of them has zero plan – guess who?)  

Of course, Ryan tried to explain all this to Debbie Dimwit (Wasserman Schultz) in 2012.  I don’t know how he kept from smacking her!  

Oh yeah…you probably missed the fact that Ryan’s mother lives in Florida – and is on Medicare.  CBS Doesn’t Want You To Know Ryan’s Mother Is On Medicare  ”For some reason ’60 Minutes’ sent out a transcript of the Romney-Ryan interview but decided not to air the portion where Paul Ryan tells Bob Schieffer his mother is a “Medicare senior in Florida.”  I’m sure it was just an oversight.

Is it just me, or are there lots of dofusses among the Dems?  Joe Biden Says Romney ‘Going To Put You Back In Chains,’ Thinks Virginia Rally Goers Are North Carolinians  Yep.  Crazy Uncle Joe is at it again!  Be sure to click on the link for the videos.

In contrast, the GOP has people like this:  Allen West Cruises To Victory In Florida GOP Primary  But West is a primary target for the Dems in November – they would love to unseat him!  Support him if you can.

Be sure to see this movie!!!!  2016 – Obama’s America  It’s based on two books by Dinesh D’Souza and produced by the Academy-Award winning producer of Schindler’s List.  Hubby and I have tickets for Friday, thanks to Hawaii Republicans For Life!!  

Final Thought:  “You’re right to say we’re not coming before you today to say we have a definitive solution to that long-term problem. What we do know is we don’t like yours.”  Timothy Geithner to Paul Ryan, during a House Budget Committee meeting on the debt and deficit in early 2012

And:  “We don’t have a trillion-dollar debt because we haven’t taxed enough; we have a trillion-dollar debt because we spend too much.” Ronald Reagan.  Kinda sounds like Paul Ryan, doesn’t it????

GOD BLESS AMERICA – PASS THIS ON – REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER – 82 DAYS AND COUNTING!!

Hump Day Report: Romney/Ryan, America’s Comeback Team!

Team

ALOHA, ALL!!  President ROMNEY/Vice President RYAN – HAS A NICE RING TO IT!!  A few resources about the next Vice President of the United States (Shaka to Carl):

Who Is This Paul Ryan?  “We lost our brand as the party of fiscal responsibility, and we’ve got to get it back,” said Ryan, a close ally of House Majority Leader Eric Cantor. “It’s important that we give voters a very clear choice on fiscal policy.” Last year Republicans chose him to give the well-received party response to Obama’s State of the Union address.”

Ryan has Ohio ties – he went to Miami University in Oxford, Ohio

IT’S ROMNEY-RYAN 2012. “Ryan puts the national debt front and center in the election, on par with or maybe even ahead of jobs. This is a winner of an issue, it’s what motivated people in 2010, and it will cause huge turnout.”

Byron York: Romney Goes Bold.  ”By instead choosing Rep. Paul Ryan, Romney is sending a clear signal that he intends to run a more daring and more ideologically vigorous campaign than he has run up to this point.”

And on the day Ryan was picked, it’s worth pointing out that we’ve gone 1200 days now without a budget. 

Matt Lewis: 5 notable points about Paul Ryan’s selection as Romney’s running mate.

Roger Kimball writes: The comeback team (or why Romney will win by a landslide).  “The man who has added more than $5 trillion to the federal debt, who is running an annual deficit of some $1.4 trillion, who has burdened American business with a nightmare of stifling regulations, who has squandered hundreds of billions of dollars on failed “green” energy initiatives and non-stimulating “stimulus” packages, who has insinuated government into the private sector in blundering unproductive and fiscally ruinous ways and foisted on an unwilling public the horror of ObamaCare—that chap is going down and going down in a landslide.”

But this is my favorite line:  ”Unlike Joe Biden, he does not regularly give the impression of having suffered a lobotomy.”

Lest we forget?  Look how Ryan goes after Obama and Obamacare.  Preezy must be thinking, “Gee this guy’s a lot smarter than me!”  Mr. HopeAndChange apparently stormed out of the room afterward:  

And here’s how the Dem machine is planning to attack Ryan.  He Isn’t Stupid so He Must Be Evil  ”Paul Ryan murders puppies and kittens. The lifelong Green Bay Packers fan then uses the dead animal carcasses for field goal practice. Harry Reid has an anonymous source named Fareed Zakaria who stole from somebody a column proving that Paul Ryan then sold the dead animal skins and never declared the income on his taxes for the past ten years.”  Good stuff!!!!

Final Thought:  “Paul Ryan represents Obama’s most horrifying nightmare: MATH.”  Tweet from IOWAHAWK

Hump Day Report: The War That Blew Up in Obama’s Face

ALOHA, ALL!!  Wow.  What could possibly make Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, David Axelrod, Jim Messina, Joe Biden and numerous other “defenders of women” come out on the same day and throw a woman under the bus?  That woman letting the cat out of the bag.  Here’s the thing:  the left has always had a disdain for stay-at-home moms.  Remember Hillary Clinton’s famous remark about how she’s not staying home baking cookies?  After all, that would mean she’s doing menial things like preparing meals for a family and tending to basic household needs.  People like Hillary have nannies for those unimportant tasks!!!!  So now another Hilary (hmmm…odd coincidence), Hilary Rosen (with one l – apparently she wasn’t named after a famous mountain climber like Clinton was) has a moment of complete candor and the Democrat spin machine goes into full tizzy mode.  LOVE. IT!

Too little too late.  Democratic strategist Rosen apologizes for attack on Ann Romney | Fox News  “Guess what, (Romney’s) wife has actually never worked a day in her life,” said Rosen, who has twins with ex-partner Elizabeth Birch.”  (Sidenote:  Birch is a former Chair of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force.  She runs Rosie O’Donnell’s production company.  Oh…I see she also graduated from the University of Hawaii.)

No worries – Rosen has NOTHING to do with Obama’s campaign.  Democrats declare war on women? Update: Frequent White House visitor? « Hot Air  ”White House visitor logs indicate that “Hilary Rosen” visited the White House thirty-five times. Gen. David Petraeus, head of our efforts in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the current CIA director, nine times.”

Obama Press Secretary Jay Carney tried to explain all those visits – LOL!  

And who does Rosen currently work for?  Hilary Rosen | SKDKnickerbocker  Note the names on the masthead.  Does “Anita Dunn” sound familiar?  But no worries – I repeat….Rosen has NOTHING to do with Obama’s campaign.  But wait….didn’t The One himself raise the “not working” theme just days before?  Video: Obama Lays Groundwork for Rosen’s Attack on Ann Romney  Coincidence that both he and Rosen are beating the same drum?  RIIIIIGHT!

Ann Romney ROCKS!!  Ann Romney | Hilary Rosen | Fires back | The Daily Caller  “Look, I know what it’s like to struggle,” she said. “And if maybe I haven’t struggled as much financially as some people have, I can tell you and promise you that I’ve had struggles in my life. And I would love to have people understand that Mitt and I have compassion for people that are struggling, and that’s why we’re running.”

Ha Ha Ha!!  Oh my: Obama White House paying women employees less than men? « Hot Air  ”According to the 2011 annual report on White House staff, female employees earned a median annual salary of $60,000, which was about 18 percent less than the median salary for male employees ($71,000).”

There IS a war on women, and here are the details.  The Democrats’ War on Women | FrontPage Magazine  ”And make no mistake: when 41 percent of women are having children out of wedlock, Democrats are not just waging a war against women. It’s a war against children as well.”  Excellent article!!

In Other News:

This guy thinks I’m a racist because I posted the audio of the New Black Panther Party threatening to kill white people:  Unzipping The Mitt  Of course, he ”…strives daily to hold back the surging tide of conservative lies, race-baiting, fear mongering and social agitation that the right wing would love to see on the streets of America in the days leading up to the 2012 election.”  LOL!!!!!  Check out his blog.  Striking.

RealClearPolicy- Keep American Military Manufacturing in American Hands  Seems like a no-brainer.  So why isn’t it?  ”The letter outlined grave concerns over a recent disturbing pattern by the Department of Defense (DOD) to procure military weaponry and aircraft from corrupt foreign countries hostile to U.S. national security interests, and from foreign companies supplying these corrupt nations (including Syria) with weapons used to commit mass atrocities against their own people.”

North Korea Rocket Launch Fails – WSJ.com  A dud.  ”…it blew up less than two minutes into flight and parts crashed in the Yellow Sea off South Korea.”

Voter fraud allegations widen in Vernon – latimes.com  More evidence, this on a local level.  But Eric Holder thinks there’s no problem.  ”The city of Vernon on Wednesday was roiled by allegations of widespread voter fraud, including charges that outsiders were brought in to influence the city’s first competitive election in years. The Chamber of Commerce says that nearly 30% of the registered voters in the city don’t actually live there.”

Hoopster In Chief Has Own Image on Ball* – ABC News  Seriously???  ”Using a special basketball festooned with his own image, President Obama shot some hoop today with former NBA players, Harlem Globetrotters and kids attending the White House Easter Egg Hunt….He then moved on to tennis with Chris Evert. The tennis balls did not have his image on them.”  Well thank heaven for little favors.

Final Thought:  ”Thanks for making me a fighter.”  Christina Aguilera.  This is dedicated to Hilary Rosen and her ilk, most notably Barack Obama.  Oh…and the guy who called me a racist.    You thought I would forget, but I’ll definitely remember – in November.

GOD BLESS AMERICA – PASS THIS ON – REMEMBER IN NOVEMBER!!
