Oh No He Dinit!

The Obamessiah grows bold as his coronation approaches, as both Misha and Nice Deb have noted. The closer he gets to power, the more the mask is drawn back, and the real agenda comes forth. I questioned whether he is trying to provoke conflict before. I now have little doubt, and still the population slumbers, completely oblivious to what the Dear Leader says. In his own words:



And just in case it slipped past you:

“It was these ideals that led us to declare independence, and craft our constitution, producing documents that were imperfect but had within them, like our nation itself, the capacity to be made more perfect.

We are here today not simply to pay tribute to our first patriots but to take up the work that they began.

And yet while our problems may be new, what is required to overcome them is not. What is required is the same perseverance and idealism that our founders displayed. What is required is a new declaration of independence not just in our nation, but in our own lives..independence from ideology…"


Simply unfettered arrogance and a willingness to set the nation aflame.

What I Needed To See In The Debate

I waited for McCain to look in the camera and say “America, the choice is simple, you can vote for me and decide for yourself how to spend your money, or you can vote for my opponent and hope that he lets you keep the change.”

The best moment for my money? When McCain called Obama "Senator Government". Kinda sad when the best line was unintentional and so far, unrecognized by the media.

Honestly, McCain had a great point with across the board spending freezes and cutting spending. Obama just about yelped. He wants to get rid of the programs that don't work and get more money to the ones that do. It really has never occured to either of these guys that we have too many "programs" now. It really is about finding reasons to spend our money. I honestly cannot understand how this is good policy or is in any way intelligent.

***Update: I just heard Hannity recognize the "Senator Government" line.

An Oversight

It was brought to my attention that while I gave a welcome to SoHos with the link on the sidebar, a certain Princess I have become acquainted with did not receive the same courtesies...and now I am in trouble and stuff. Therefore, for those of you who were not paying attention, please welcome The Barista to this little corner of the Realm.

Now, I expect that the remainder of making amends will have something to do with giving her a pedicure during lunch or something equally direct...
