Hump Day Report: Does The TV Make My Ego Look Fat?
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.”
Final Thought (Shaka to Jodie): ”When a wise man has a controversy with a foolish man, the foolish man either rages or laughs, and there is no rest.” ~ Proverbs 29:9

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

Hump Day Report: Calling A Spade A Spade
ALOHA, ALL!! Let’s go there. Let’s open Pandora’s Box on who may or may not have committed a felony. Preezy himself opened that box (well technically his staffer did but Obama says he won’t apologize for the outlandish slander against Romney made by his deputy campaign manager.) Shall we outline the ways Barry/Barack Soetoro/Obama may have committed a felony during his lifetime? (What is his legal name anyway? That’s not a facetious question – does anyone really know?) You can start here: If Anyone Is A Criminal, It’s Obama And then check out this one: Who’s The Real Felon, Mr. Obama? And looks like this wasn’t legit: Obama’s Gutting Of Welfare Reform Illegal ut he’s got some wonderful friends: Top Ten Felons, Fugitives And Shady Characters In Obama’s Life Ah yes…ain’t it a hassle when your words and actions come back to haunt you, Preezy????
AND THE BIGGEST CRIME OBAMA HAS PERPETRATED ON THE AMERICAN PEOPLE? Arpaio’s Obama Probe Finds National Security Threat ”Under Hawaii Revised Statute 338-17.8, a person only has to be an established resident of Hawaii, not necessarily a U.S. citizen, and pay taxes there for one year to be able to register an out-of-state or foreign-born person with an official Hawaii birth certificate.” His grandma “Toots” knew all this. She’s likely the one who got Barry’s “papers” for him. Isn’t it odd how she died two days before the election in 2008? Just sayin’…
Bet you didn’t know this one. Obama Took Cash From Bain Execs ”Apparently, it’s fine to outsource so long as the name on the contribution check reads “Barack Obama.” UPDATE: Other Dems took money from Bain as well, including Nancy Nitwit: If Bain Is So Evil Why Do All These Democrats Take Their Donations?
We don’t need no stinkin’ deadlines! Obama Misses New Budget Deadline ”The Obama administration has missed another annual budget deadline, failing to send Congress a mid-session budget review before July 16….House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) pointed out that the mid-session review has never been delivered on time by Obama.”
Give. Me. A. Break! Obamas Get Booed For Dissing The Kiss Cam But here’s the best part: ”Turns out the president and his wife got a second chance, and delivered. They also made sure the press was present for it. As Zeke Miller of Buzzfeed caught in the press pool report, the press was sitting outside the Verizon Center in vans during much of the game, but were brought back in and given a clear view of the Obamas for their second shot at the Kiss Cam. Because nothing’s sexier than a second try at spontaneity. I wonder which moment will get more coverage.” Oh yeah….and they missed the women’s game but showed up for the men’s game. Can you imagine if Romney had done that?
He’s ready for all 57 states! Obama Switches Off His Teleprompter ”The difference is dramatic. Instead of turning in his characteristic manner from right to left and back again, reading from the two sloping, clear-plastic planes of his teleprompter, Obama has glanced down at pages in a binder on his podium.”
BTW….I saw a live stream of Romney speaking in Pennsylvania yesterday. FANTASTIC!!!! And no teleprompter. I tried to find it on YouTube and found this version. Or go HERE to see video and audio
HDR Quiz - Which of these qualifies as work under the new Obama welfare fiat? A) Bedrest; B) Massage; C) Journaling (I didn’t even know that was a word.) For the answer, go here: Welfare Under The Obama Administration
Final Thought: “Do we believe in an America that is great because of government or do we believe in an America that’s great because of free people allowed to pursue their dreams and their futures?” Mitt Romney, Irwin, PA. July 17, 2012
