Ann Coulter gives her unique perspectives on the 2008 elections.

The reign of lame falls mainly on McCain

This was such an enormous Democratic year that even John Murtha won his congressional seat in Pennsylvania after calling his constituents racists. It turns out they’re not racists – they’re retards. Question: What exactly would one have to say to alienate Pennsylvanians? That Joe Paterno should retire?

For now, we have a new president-elect. In the spirit of reaching across the aisle, we owe it to the Democrats to show their president the exact same kind of respect and loyalty that they have shown our recent Republican president.

Starting tomorrow, if not sooner.

These morons think they can just keep printing money and dump it in banks as the solution to the economic crises. Whole nations already are being slaughtered by inflation as I speak and the impact of these inflationary actions have not even hit yet and won’t for about a year or two. The inflationary impact of creating money out of nothing and the deflationary effect of a world going into recession and more government regulation and higher taxes ought to put on a good battle for the next few years. What will win out? Will the world economic collapse come from a new depression or from inflation? The world economic Gurus are walking a high wire on Wall Street in the eye of a hurricane it does not even matter what direction the wind comes from next it is certainly coming. Economic collapse through inflation or depression is still economic collapse.

The morons in the eurozone have just been given another reminder that continuing to create excessive amounts of money and credit is suicide-by-inflation, as the UK found that last month’s inflation hit 5.2% year-over-year - the highest it’s been for over 16 years! Yikes!

So, price inflation is the highest it’s been in a couple of decades, and at the high end of inflation throughout history, and yet these European halfwits are shoveling more money into the economy with every corrupt fascist idea that they can come up with? They must have American economists on their staffs! Hahahaha!

“The US Federal Reserve
announced it was making unlimited amounts of dollar funds available offshore to be distributed by the European Central Bank, Bank of England and the Swiss National Bank.” Gaahhh!

The Fed is now giving foreigners “unlimited amounts of dollar funds”, and yet I cannot get another dollar with which to turn my ordinary burger-and-fries dinner into a Grande Feast of double fries and two perfectly-fried all-beef patties? What in the hell is going on here?

The reason is because we have fiat dollars and unrestrained fractional-reserve banking, and as Mr Ackerman attests, “The dollar is already completely, fundamentally, wholly, absolutely and irrefutably WORTHLESS. And the US is b-a-n-k-r-u-p-t. This means that the dollar’s value is purely a figment of the herd’s imagination.”

Instead, this guy says, “Forget inflation, guys.” Forget it! My mouth was hanging open in disbelief at those words, and he says that what is happening “is serious, the real McCoy, and you don’t have to worry about little things like inflation. Global growth will slow down, commodities will be weaker for awhile, and inflation is a thing of the past.”

He actually said, “little things like inflation”! Inflation, the thing that destroys whole economies, is a “little thing”? Hahaha! This is indeed news!

I figure that he is almost certainly wrong, in that, inflation not merely “a thing of the past”, but rather, it is going to get worse and worse and destroy us all, definitely starting within next nine months to a year as all of these trillions of new dollars being created and spent by the Treasury and the Fed starts working their sinewy, cancerous way through the economy, making prices rise and rise, portending calamity, like a big pimple on the end of your nose.

I don’t normally post movie reviews but “An American Triumph” grounded in Judeo-Christian ethic sounds like a movie that is a lot of fun. Especially since it exposes the Far Left for the demented people they are and it is also gives them a taste of there own medicine.

FrontPage Magazine

The plot revolves around a retelling of the Scrooge story, this time on Independence Day. A leftist documentary filmmaker named Michael Malone (Kevin Farley) plots, with MoveAlong.org, to abolish the Fourth of July. Soon, he is visited by three spirits who show him what the world would be like if the United States had never waged war. While hostile critics will call it an apology for warmongering, it cannot be stereotyped with such a simplistic, not to mention inhuman, message. One film soldier tells protestors he, too, opposes war, but it is sometimes inevitable. The film’s true message is that there is evil in the world, and it must be opposed by moral good backed by might.

This moral clarity, grounded in the Judeo-Christian ethic, may alone explain why such movies are never made in Hollywood.

However, the real attraction is not the message but the jokes. The trailer does not do the film justice. Producer David Zucker did the audience a favor by not making a conservative film with jokes but a comedy that happens to be conservative. Suicide bombers as a whole are made the object of scorn. One of the terror leaders remarks, “It is getting harder and harder to find suicide bombers, and all the really good ones are gone.” Muslim sexual morés also take a grazing hit. The al-Qaeda recruiting video, done in the style of 1950s and ‘60s educational film strips, is not to be missed. By far the funniest moment is the screening of Rosie O’Connell’s documentary about radical Christians, which makes reference to an Episcopalian suicide bomber.

Perhaps this points to the movie’s most politically consequential motif: it fittingly depicts, in a comic format, how the radical Left has moved into the mainstream of the Democratic Party. In the film, Malone introduces former president Jimmy Carter at a MoveAlong.org rally, just as Michael Moore shared the real-life Carter’s box at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, and as Al Gore made his post-9/11 political rebound bellowing red-faced rants at MoveOn.org rallies. For making this point, this author has himself been parodied (but not nearly as well as this ensemble does the Left).

Full review

Not only do ignoramuses like Joe Biden and Katie Couric not even know that FDR was not President in 1929 they fail to understand that the Great depression did not end anywhere near 1929. In fact, it started in the 1930’s and it lasted for over a decade through most of FDR’s Presidency, It took the military expansion for World War II to get us out of the great depression. Also Joe Biden said FDR went on TV in 1929. There was no TV in those days.

In another article, 14 lies or wrong statements were documented from Joe Biden in his Vice Presidential debate with Sarah Palin. He seems to either have no clue on the facts or he is purposely deceptive.

This article also points out the fact that Joe Biden was only one of five senators who voted against the Alaskan pipeline. Think of the situation we would be in now had that pipeline not been built. Can you imagine Joe Biden sitting and advising the President and constantly getting the facts he tells him wrong.

Both Katie Couric and Joe Biden richly deserve my Demented Delusional or Dumb Club award for obvious reasons.

Here is some additional information on the record of Joe Biden

AnnCoulter.com - Printer Friendly Article: BIDEN SECRET SERVICE CODE NAME: ‘ASSASSINATION INSURANCE’

Being interviewed by Katie Couric on the “CBS Evening News,” Biden said: “When the stock market crashed, Franklin D. Roosevelt got on the television and didn’t just talk about the, you know, the princes of greed. He said, ‘Look, here’s what happened.’”

For those of you who aren’t hard-core history buffs, Biden not only named the wrong president during the 1929 stock market crash, he also claimed a president who wasn’t president during the stock market crash went on TV before Americans had TVs.

Other than that, the statement holds up pretty well. At least Biden managed to avoid mentioning any “clean” Negroes he had met.

Couric was nearly moved to tears by the brilliance of Biden’s brain-damaged remark. She was especially intrigued by Biden’s claim that FDR had said the new iPhone was the bomb!

Here is Couric’s full response to Biden’s bizarre outburst about FDR (a) being president and (b) going on TV in 1929: “Relating to the fears of the average American is one of Biden’s strong suits.”

The insights of Ann Coulter on the Democrats, their profound knowledge of the Bible and their community organizer forefather Saul. (No Jesus was not a community organizer like radical socialist Saul Alinsky or Barack Obama, nor were real Americans.)

Obama: Lucifer Is My Homeboy - HUMAN EVENTS

Obama: Lucifer Is My Homeboy
by Ann Coulter

It’s another election season, so that means it’s time for Democrats to start uttering wild malapropisms about the Bible to pretend they believe in God!

In 2000, we had Al Gore inverting a Christian parable into something nearly satanic. Defending his nutty ideas about the Earth during one of the debates, Gore said: “In my faith tradition, it’s written in the book of Matthew, where your heart is, there is your treasure also.” And that, he said, is why we should treasure the environment.

First of all, people who say “faith tradition” instead of “religion” are always phony-baloney, “Christmas and Easter”-type believers.

Then in 2004, Democratic presidential candidate and future Trivial Pursuit answer Howard Dean told an interviewer that his favorite part of the New Testament was the Book of Job. The reporter should have asked him if that was his favorite book in all three testaments.

David Freddoso’s magnificent new book, The Case Against Barack Obama describes the forefather to “community organizers” like Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton — the famed Saul Alinsky.

Alinsky is sort of the George Washington of “community organizers.” If there were an America-hater’s Mount Rushmore, Saul Alinsky would be on it. He tried to hire Hillary to work for him right out of Wellesley. A generation later, those who had trained with Alinsky did hire Obama as a community organizer.

In Freddoso’s book , he quotes from the dedication in the first edition of Alinsky’s seminal book, “Rules for Radicals,” where Alinsky wrote:

“Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical: From all our legends, mythology and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins — or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer.”

Sarah Palin might be just the lucky break the Democrats need. As a staunch pro-lifer, Palin could give Democrats an excuse to steer away from topics they know nothing about, like the Bible , and onto a subject they know chapter and verse, like abortion.

This article on the Democratic national coronation of their “O”mniscient One in Denver is just too good and too true not to post. Now will Obama’s false prophet “O”prah also be revealed?

The mile lie club

The scene on the final evening of the Democratic convention next week is bound to be a gripping one: Some 75,000 people will be in the stands awaiting healing and anointing in the packed but expansive confines of Denver’s Invesco Field.

The entire event has forced the Broncos to make contingency plans for an alternate place to play their home football games just in case the entire stadium is swept away during the pretribulation rapture on the night of 28 August in the year marked by the gathered faithful as 48 B.C. (Barack’s Coming, two score and 8 years ago)

As tens of thousands clamor for their savior – the Benny Hinn of wealth redistribution – the high-decibel chants of “Obama” will be broken only by the orgasmic screeches of writhing members of the mainstream media. The tingle up Chris Matthews’ leg will hurt so unbearably good that “Hardball” will, for one brief and shining moment, be the most apropos program title in the world.

I now have five rescued dogs which cost me about $2500 a year. Could the multi-billion dollar Helmsley estate (Leona Helmsley dog foundation?) send me a check for $30,000 for my out of pocket expenses for taking care of them all their lives? Additional grants for my time, goodwill and past rescue efforts will be accepted. Contact Don Koenig at my website email address.

Leona Helmsley’s multibillion-dollar estate may go to dogs — South Florida Sun-Sentinel.com

Her instructions, specified in a two-page “mission statement,” are that the entire trust, valued at $5 billion to $8 billion and amounting to virtually all her estate, be used for the care and welfare of dogs, according to two people who have seen the document and who described it on condition of anonymity.

There are many ways the trustees could spend the Helmsley money on dogs. National groups like the Humane Society and the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals have programs dedicated to dogs, and many smaller local groups rescue abandoned and abused dogs. Or the trustees could use the trust’s money to finance veterinary schools or research on canine diseases.

Ann Coulter knows you can’t fuel all the people all of the time. Democrats think they can fuel us but we know they really don’t want to fuel this energy problem or they would have allowed drilling years ago and we would have the fuel. The Democrats say “We can’t drill our way out of this crisis” and all Obama followers should be saying “yes we can” but instead they fail step one in their audacity of hope.

You Can’t Fuel All of the People All of the Time - HUMAN EVENTS

Democrats have worked hard to ensure that Americans pay as much for gas as Europeans do. After a quarter-century of gas tax hikes, a ban on drilling for oil and a complete destruction of the nuclear power industry in America, I guess liberals can declare: Mission accomplished!

In response to skyrocketing gas prices, liberals say, practically in unison, “We can’t drill our way out of this crisis.”

What does that mean? This is like telling a starving man, “You can’t eat your way out of being hungry!” “You can’t water your way out of drought!” “You can’t sleep your way out of tiredness!” “You can’t drink yourself out of dehydration!”

Seriously, what does it mean? Finding more oil isn’t going to increase the supply of oil?

It is the typical Democratic strategy to babble meaningless slogans, as if they have a plan. Their plan is: the permanent twilight of the human race. It’s the only solution they can think of to deal with the beastly traffic on the LIE (Long Island Expressway).

How do liberals propose we acquire the energy required for the economic activity and production that results in light appearing when they flick a switch? The larger enterprise involved in producing that little miracle eludes them.

Moreover, what was going on five years ago? Why didn’t anyone propose drilling back then?

Say, you know what we need? We need a class of people paid to anticipate national crises and plan solutions in advance. It would be such an important job, the taxpayers would pay them salaries so they wouldn’t have to worry about making a living and could just sit around anticipating crises.

If only we had had such a group — let’s call them “elected representatives” — they could have proposed drilling five years ago!

This is pretty good stuff. Yeah, my title contains a pun. A guy has to have some fun with this messiah of Oprah’s inner space cadets.

Jonah Goldberg

A messiah in our midst?

Before we answer that question, let me vent for a moment. In 2000 I was cruelly denied the Pulitzer
despite being the only columnist in America to ask the pressing question: Is Al Gore an alien? The evidence was there for all to see. He was born nine months after the mysterious alien sighting at Roswell, N.M. His weird syntax and verbal rhythms are otherworldly. He often refers to “earth” or “this planet” as if he’s just passing through, and he once angrily complained to the Washington Post that it had printed a picture of the earth from outer space “upside down.”

There is no “upside down” in space — unless Gore had his childhood view in mind.

At least I’m not in the wilderness this time. Lots of people have pondered the possibility that Barack is our Divine Redeemer. There are Web sites dedicated to the question “Is Barack Obama the Messiah?” Google that question and you’ll get more than 35,000 hits. (Enter just the words “Messiah” and “Obama” and you’ll get nearly 10 times that.)

But there’s more concrete evidence. Since Obama declared his candidacy, there have been remarkably few biblical plagues. And lions and lambs seem open to bilateral negotiations.

Obama’s apostles are hard to dismiss. Oprah simply calls him “The One,” because “we need politicians who know how to be the truth.” (Jesus says in John 14:6 “I am the way, the truth …”) Oprah goes on to say Obama will help us “evolve to a higher plane,” which would put Obama in the role of our Intelligent Designer.

I suggest that they put the Olympic flame in the hands of the Dalai Llama sitting on a throne and then they can wisk him around the world for all to worship. Perhaps he can alternate with the Pope and the leading Guru’s of other religions.

Perils of Olympic torch running

The arrival of the Olympic torch is, to the happy denizens of the Global Village, a combination of St Patrick’s Day and Fourth of July. The Olympic torch is ignited several months before the opening celebration of the Olympic Games at the site of the ancient Olympics in Olympia, Greece.

Eleven women, representing the roles of priestesses, perform a ceremony in which the torch is kindled by the light of the sun, its rays concentrated by a parabolic mirror. It is then symbolically carried by relay around the world, so its arrival in San Francisco was a very big day, indeed. Priestesses, the light of the sun, torches and “parabolic mirrors” – it sounds like a ritual invented in San Francisco.

There is no question that there is a minority segment of blacks in this nation who blame whites for everything just like Pastor Wright. I am sure his church attracted all in the area that wanted a pastor expressing their own hate. The real question is why would Americans elect to President someone who identifies with a racist hate Church and a hate pastor. To say this is the black culture is only true if you are part of that minority segment of the black culture. There is a larger black culture that does not hate so why not join with them? Why identify with the radicals unless you identify with them?

Even Obama’s agenda shows hate for the unborn. His Marxist like socialism shows his hate for the American system where people succeed through their effort and hard work and not by government preference programs and quotas.

Frankly, blacks today get preferences over whites in everything. If there is any anger coming from whites today against blacks it is not because of there skin shade. It is because many are handed opportunities that they never worked for or that are unavailable to whites. Other blacks have rejected civil society and they embrace a criminal counterculture that is destroying society. Still other blacks put in leadership positions those who are obviously racists.

Throw grandma under the bus

We treat blacks like children, constantly talking about their temper tantrums right in front of them with airy phrases about black anger. I will not pat blacks on the head and say, “Isn’t that cute?” As a post-racial American, I do not believe “the legacy of slavery” gives black people the right to be permanently ill-mannered.Obama tried to justify Wright’s deranged rants by explaining that “legalized discrimination” is the “reality in which Rev. Wright and other African-Americans of his generation grew up.” He said that a “lack of economic opportunity among black men, and the shame and frustration that came from not being able to provide for one’s family, contributed to the erosion of black families.”

That may accurately describe the libretto of “Porgy and Bess,” but it has no connection to reality.

Carla of “More Books and Things” just did post 1000. Congratulations Carla, the post is fitting for such a landmark,The post speaks of those who often appear on our blogs and email’s in bunny suits. They are quite good at getting those doing God’s work on the Internet to follow them down long rabbit trails to waste their time. I suggest we set traps for these near sighted creatures and cage them and ship them to the troll freak show.

Do not fear Carla you are doing a fine job getting out what you learn in books and things and you are doing us all a valuable service.

clipped from morebooksandthings.blogspot.com I’ve been told many things by trolls who hide under my blog bridge waiting for my next post. They’ve humbly told little old me, of the lowly brown blog, to get humble, get a life, that I am spreading hate, playing God and don’t know my history (even though I don’t claim to be a historian). I’ve been called a false prophet with a pope syndrome, a self-appointed ombudsman of Christianity, among those who wear blinkers and are incapable of seeing anything but their views and obsessed with ‘defending’ almighty God. I’ve been told to go read my Bible (I do, thankyou), that I have the most unbiblical blog EVER and that I am part of a narrow minded circle with a disturbing view of Jesus and the “truth” that has become the most EXCLUSIVE religion known to mankind.
