My Race is the Best Race - Associated Content

My Race is the Best Race - Associated Content

We have all this race tension being caused by the bigoted Democrats in American. It is getting on my nerves all this tiptoeing around the subject that we are doing. I will admit it, MY RACE IS THE BEST RACE. Yep I said it and now I will make my case and prove my point.

We carved out a once wonderful country from the wilderness that was America. Hell before that we turned Europe into a civilized continent. My race invented writing and ways to teach it. We invented schools and made them better and better until the liberals got control and started their brainwashing campaign.

I love this blog post. Make sure you read the whole thing before making a judgement.

CNSNews.com - HHS Secretary Announces Additional $350 Million for States to Combat Swine Flu, Which Is ‘No More Lethal Than Seasonal Flu’

(CNSNews.com) – Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius recently announced that an additional $350 million is available to help states and territories prepare for the 2009 flu season – including swine flu, which Sebelius described as “no more lethal than the seasonal flu.”

“With flu season around the corner, we must remain vigilant and do all we can to prepare our nation and protect public health,” said Sebelius. “These grants will give states valuable resources to step up their flu preparedness efforts.”

Queen Kathleen, doing to America what she did to Kansas.

Walter E. Williams : EPA Cover-Up - Townhall.com

Walter E. Williams : EPA Cover-Up - Townhall.com

Here's what I wrote in last year's column titled "Global Warming Rope-a-Dope" (12/24/2008): "Once laws are written, they are very difficult, if not impossible, to repeal. If a time would ever come when the permafrost returns to northern U.S., as far south as New Jersey as it once did, it's not inconceivable that Congress, caught in the grip of the global warming zealots, would keep all the laws on the books they wrote in the name of fighting global warming. Personally, I would not put it past them to write more." On June 28, 2009, the House of Representatives, by a narrow margin (219-212), passed the Waxman-Markey bill. The so-called "cap and trade" bill has been sold as a system for cutting greenhouse gas emissions in the struggle against global warming. There's a full-court press on the U.S. Senate to pass its version of "cap and trade."

America is being scammed by its own government.

Has the ‘Stimulus’ Stopped ‘Creating or Saving’ Jobs? - Jeff_Emanuel’s blog - RedState

Anyone who remembers, say, his campaign pronouncement that a Kansas tornado had left “ten thousand dead” and “an entire town destroyed” (the 2007 storm actually killed twelve people) knows that President Barack Obama (D-IL) hasn’t been one to worry about playing fast and loose with a few facts or numbers.

However, his dogged refusal to deviate from his standard talking point of “150,000 jobs created or saved” by the $787,000,000,000.00 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (also known as the “stimulus package,” or, my personal favorite, “Porkulus”) is beginning to lend itself to more than a little head-scratching by observers.

It is the new math. It doesn't matter what answer you come to if the "work" looks impressive.

Topeka Mayor Bill Bunten back to work after hospitalizations - KFSM

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Topeka Mayor Bill Bunten has returned to work, after being hospitalized twice in the past month.

The two-term mayor was back at work Monday. The 79-year-old had been away from his work for about a month while battling pneumonia.

Bunten was hospitalized on June 16 with pneumonia and a rapid heart rate. He was readmitted from June 23 to 25.

Welcome back Mr. Mayor. It will be nice to disagree on policy with you again. :)

How is it possible for a small number of newcomers to displace a well-established group of leaders?

That's not just question for military organisations wanting to overthrow governments but of political parties controlling national debates, new products displacing well-established market leaders and flocking birds following leaders to new food sources.

EXCLUSIVE: Palin to stump for conservative Democrats - Washington Times

EXCLUSIVE: Palin to stump for conservative Democrats - Washington Times

ANCHORAGE, Alaska Brushing aside the criticisms of pundits and politicos, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said she plans to jump immediately back into the national political fray — stumping for conservative issues and even Democrats — after she prematurely vacates her elected post at month's end.

The former Republican vice-presidential nominee and heroine to much of the GOP's base said in an interview she views the electorate as embattled and fatigued by nonstop partisanship, and she is eager to campaign for Republicans, independents and even Democrats who share her values on limited government, strong defense and "energy independence."

Go Sarah! Maybe, just maybe, we can bring back the Constitution as law.

Science Czar John Holdren denies the ‘right of women to choose?’ - Moe_Lane’s blog - RedState

It is often argued that the right to have children is so personal that the government should not regulate it. In an ideal society, no doubt the state should leave family size and composition solely to the desires of the parents. In today’s world, however, the number of children in a family is a matter of profound public concern. The law regulates other highly personal matters. For example, no one may lawfully have more than one spouse at a time. Why should the law not be able to prevent a person from having more than two children?

This should scare you. It does me.

American Thinker Blog: If one of those CFL light bulbs breaks...

American Thinker Blog: If one of those CFL light bulbs breaks...

Those curly CFL light bulbs that we all will be forced to adopt are incipient environmental disasters. Should a table or floor lamp be knocked over by a dog or child, for instance, if the bulb breaks, you have a mercury contamination problem, one that requires great care in cleaning up.

Writing in the Washington Times, Terrence Jeffrey exposes some of the contradictory advice the EPA is offering:

The first section is titled: "What Never to Do With a Mercury Spill." It says: "Never use a vacuum cleaner to clean up mercury (but see the 'What to Do if a Fluorescent Light Bulb Breaks' section below for more specific instructions about vacuuming broken fluorescent light bulbs). The vacuum will put mercury into the air and increase exposure."

But the EPA also tells us:

But what if a fluorescent bulb breaks on the wall-to-wall carpet where your toddler crawls? What then? Suddenly, it is OK to use a vacuum on a mercury spill.


You got that straight??? Me neither.

Obama grilled about Honduran prez drug links

Obama grilled about Honduran prez drug links

A congressman from Michigan is grilling President Barack Obama about his open advocacy for the ousted president of Honduras, Manuel Zelaya, including whether the U.S. knew of Zelaya's alleged narcotics trafficking.

Zalaya was taken by members of the Honduras military from his home on June 28 and put on a plane to Costa Rica. They accused him of attempting to violate their own nation's constitutional limitation to one term for a president.

While President Obama has condemned the action as a "coup," the military quickly stood down and in place of Zalaya a member of his own political party was named by legislators to replace him.

Now I am beginning to understand why Obama is such a Zelaya supporter.

(CNSNews.com) – Rep. John Fleming (R-La.) introduced a bill Monday that urges members of Congress who vote to create a government-run health insurance agency to give up their own comprehensive health insurance plans to join the new the public option they advocate for others.

The bill, H. Res. 615, says members of Congress who vote for a government-run health care bureau should become the inaugural customers of government-run health-care.

I like this idea, but it doesn't have a chance. Congress will never subject themselves to what they expect us to do.

Spread Freedom? Not So Much by Jonah Goldberg on National Review Online

Spread Freedom? Not So Much by Jonah Goldberg on National Review Online

The Obama Doctrine is finally coming into focus.

It’s been hard to glean its form because for so long it seemed the president’s most obvious guiding principle was “not Bush,” particularly when it came to the Iraq War. Indeed, his anti-Bush stance has led him to stubbornly refuse to say the war has been won or to admit that he was wrong to oppose the surge. In the past, this unthinking reflex has caused Obama to take some truly repugnant positions. In July 2007, Obama said that he would order U.S. forces out of Iraq as quickly as possible, even if he knew it would lead to an Iraqi genocide. This makes Obama the first president in modern memory to have suggested that causing a genocide would be in America’s national interest.

Obama himself insists that he’s guided by nothing other than a cool-headed pragmatism. Indeed, Obama has a grating habit of describing any position not his own as “ideological,” as if his is the only sober, practical understanding of the problems we face. Just days before he was inaugurated, he gave a speech in Baltimore in which he proclaimed, “What is required is a new declaration of independence, not just in our nation, but in our own lives — from ideology and small thinking, prejudice and bigotry — an appeal not to our easy instincts but to our better angels.”


Is this the "Change" America voted for? As far as I am concerned, keep the change.

The economy is shaping up to be Barack Obama's Katrina. If President George W. Bush was blamed for his slow response to Hurricane Katrina in 2005 -- there was plenty of blame to go around, of course, but the disaster was on Bush's watch--then Obama will get the blame for his slow response to the current recession. The difference, of course, is that Katrina afflicted a city and a few states, while the recession afflicts the whole country.

Unemployment is 9.5 percent and rising fast, certain to go higher than 10 percent. And what is the federal government doing about it? Not much. And so House Republican Leader John Boehner makes a good point when he asks, "Where are the jobs?"

On Sunday, Vice President Joe Biden said that the Obama administration had "misread" the economic indicators. So what are they likely to do about it? More of the same--which is to say, not much.


Right on the money.

While weather models are not perfect, we do tend to bank on them a little more when they show consistency. Weather models have been quite consistent lately at showing some possible changes in our anticipated heat wave. Weather models are alluding to the possibility that the hottest “actual” temperatures may stay just south and west of the 49 Viewing Area through the upcoming weekend. In return, we may have higher thunderstorm chances; some strong.

There is some great information in this post. If Alex is right, we could be in for quite a weekend.

Pickens Plan Looking for It’s Second Wind

Pickens Plan Looking for It’s Second Wind

Texas oilman T. Boone Pickens who in 2007 unveiled plans to build a 4,000-megawatt wind farm that would power 1.3 million homes by his estimates has now temporarily shelved the project due to tight credit markets and low natural gas prices.

Pickens who started an expensive ad campaign that eventually cost him $60 million thought that oil prices which soared from $61 a barrel in early 2007 to $145 in July 2008 would continue it's upward trend or at least remain above $100 which made his plan seem viable. But there were problems with his plan as he was relying on a source of energy that is unpredictable and he thought that Texas would be eager to gbuild transmission lines to use the energy his turbines generated.

Yet as someone who made his fortune in the oil business Pickens should have known better than to put his faith in ever rising energy prices. Did he forget when oil crashed to $10 a barrel in 1998? Also for some inexplicable reason Pickens didn't see the glut in natural gas as depressing prices throwing another wrench into his plan.

Maybe Pickens isn't such a genius after all. And he didn't have much luck stealing the Kansas basketball coach for Oklahoma State either.

Miller: Investigation to be public CJOnline.com

Police Chief Ron Miller said Monday he believes it is important that a full account of a 2008 shooting, which involved four off-duty Topeka police officers, be made public.

An administrative investigation by the Topeka Police Department, including a reenactment of the night’s events, will take place after the case makes its way through the courts, Miller said.

“Because it has received so much publicity over the last year and a half, and there are so many stories out there that may not be factual,” Miller said, “a factual accounting of what occurred would be in the best interest of the officers, the police department, the city of Topeka and the community itself.”

Chief Miller is the best. I am pleased he has taken a personal interest in this case. And I am confident the facts will all come out in the end.

Barack Obama's White House is spending more than $80,000 a week to staff its old and new media offices. Add the price of speechwriters and the White House communications tab reaches nearly $100,000 a week, or nearly $5 million a year-and that is for salaries alone.

Based on the coverage the President has garnered so far, it is money well spent.

The Pentagon's Wasting Assets | Foreign Affairs

The Pentagon's Wasting Assets Foreign Affairs

The military foundations of the United States' global dominance are eroding. For the past several decades, an overwhelming advantage in technology and resources has given the U.S. military an unmatched ability to project power worldwide. This has allowed it to guarantee U.S. access to the global commons, assure the safety of the homeland, and underwrite security commitments around the globe. U.S. grand strategy assumes that such advantages will continue indefinitely. In fact, they are already starting to disappear.

All according to plan for an administration that wants to turn this country into a third rate power, just to be "fair."

Global Warming: Won't get fooled again

Dr. Alan Carlin, an employee of the EPA since 1971, has made public his “Comments on Draft Technical Support Document for Endangerment Analysis for Greenhouse Gas Emissions under the Clean Air Act” that an EPA director blocked because it was inconvenient to their pre-determined outcome. Carlin’s study casts down upon almost every aspect of global warming alarmism and on the EPA’s “endangerment finding” regarding carbon dioxide.

The document is about 100 pages long and most of you won’t have time to read it. Fortunately, Dr. Carlin included an excellent executive summary which I’ll further condense for you here:

Stimulus plan not working politically either | Washington Examiner

Stimulus plan not working politically either Washington Examiner

When President Obama signed his stimulus into law in February, Democrats issued grave warnings of the price Republicans would pay for their opposition to the bill.

“Americans will hold House Republicans accountable for ‘just saying no’ to the largest tax cut in American history and saving and creating three to four million jobs,” said Rep. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., who also serves as head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.

There are still about 140 million jobs still left in the country, so taken in the broadest possible sense, Democrats have exceeded their promise on the “save” end of the equation. It’s hard in the face of recent unemployment numbers, though, to suggest that the "create" part is doing so well

I think I have been "stimulated" quite enough, thank you. I want my money back.

Conservatives4Palin.com: Krauthammer: Romney is the Next Guy In Line

On prospective GOP candidates for 2012:

Romney really is the frontrunner. He has done himself well. He is a grown-up. He knows economics. He's trusted on that.

There is also a tradition among Republicans of nominating the next in line, as we did with George Bush, Sr. in 1988, Dole in '96, and McCain in '08, sort of the last grown-up who was left over from the last campaign.

Krauthammer might be right about Romney. But I wish he wouldn't dismiss Palin so quickly. She might be the breath of fresh air we need in 2012.

President Obama Wrong Again - HUMAN EVENTS

President Obama Wrong Again - HUMAN EVENTS

It took the Obama administration eight days to figure out whether Iranians being gunned down for protesting a fraudulent election and demanding basic civil liberties deserved to be acknowledged by the President of the United States. It took the O-Team less than eight hours to side with Cuba’s Fidel Castro, Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez and Nicaragua’s Daniel Ortega over the ouster of Manuel Zelaya in Honduras.

As we now have come to expect, Mr. Obama got it wrong again -- but this time nobody noticed. The U.S. news media, preoccupied with the sudden demise of Michael Jackson, ignored the event in Central America. For those who care about things more important than the passing of a “pop-music legend,” here’s the rest of the story.


I still think we need to investigate whether or not the Big O had anything to do with the death of Michael Jackson. You see, the media was actually starting to question the messiah on some things. So, he needed a diversion. And MJ came to his rescue.

I'm just saying.

In his recent speech to the American Medical Association, President Obama counseled Americans to beware "dire warnings about socialized medicine and government takeovers; long lines, and rationed care; decisions made by bureaucrats and not doctors."

Unfortunately for the president, there are a few Cassandras whose warnings are worth heeding. Chief among them are the millions of Canadians who have received substandard care at the hands of a government-run health system.

Before America emulates the Canadian model with a new trillion-plus-dollar health plan, it's worth examining whether government-run systems are all they're cracked up to be. As a Canadian by birth, I can assure you they're not.

This is something you should read before supporting Obamacare.

U.S. June payrolls fell 467,000, jobless rate rises - Yahoo! Finance

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. employers cut 467,000 jobs in June, far more than expected, while the unemployment rate rose to 9.5 percent, the government said on Thursday in a report that showed a labor market continuing to struggle with a deep recession.

The June job losses were more than 100,000 greater than the 363,000 consensus of Wall Street economists polled by Reuters and broke a four-month trend of moderation in job losses.

The Labor Department data showed that in April and May, 8,000 fewer jobs were lost than previously reported. The May job losses were revised downward to 322,000, while the April losses were revised upward to 519,000.

So, how is that stimulus working out for you, Mr. President?

Helen Thomas, Chip Reid Question White House Control of Media NewsBusters.org

The press corps might be starting to sour on Barack Obama’s administration.

At a press conference today, Helen Thomas and CBS’s Chip Reid got into it with Robert Gibbs over how the administration has been prepackaging media events.

First Reid asked why the questions for Wednesday’s town hall on healthcare were being preselected. After Gibbs tried to dodge that question a few times, Thomas became involved, saying, “We have never had that in the White House. I’m amazed that you people … call for openness and transparency.”

Thomas said that the administration was trying to control the media, and she pointed out how they coordinated questions with the Huffington Post at a press conference. Thomas is not the first journalist to question the White House’s coordination with the Huffington Post. The Washington Post’s Dana Milbank also took the White House to task for the coordination.

Could the honeymoon between the media and the Big O finally be over? We can pray.

Hot Air » Blog Archive » Obamateurism of the Day

Hey, what do Helen Thomas and Chip Reid know? Both of them accused the White House of staging a phony town hall on health care yesterday, before the event began. Robert Gibbs couldn’t contain his incredulousness, repeatedly replying that the press should wait to judge the event, and that he was absolutely positive that the questions for Barack Obama would contain dissent from his policies.

The Washington Post report on the “town-hall event” shows how clumsily Obama faked it:

In the stage-managed event, questions for Obama came from a live audience selected by the White House and the college, and from Internet questions chosen by the administration’s new-media team. Of the seven questions the president answered, four were selected by his staff from videos submitted to the White House Web site or from those responding to a request for “tweets.”


When Helen Thomas starts to turn on the President, watch out. She is about as "left" as they come.

This would be great satire, except that California’s Speaker of the Assembly, Karen Bass, was foolish enough to say it — and believe it. In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Bass responded to a question about conservative talk radio by calling show hosts terrorists, and openly wondering why we allow people to call politicians and give their opinions (via The Corner):

How do you think conservative talk radio has affected the Legislature’s work?


The Republicans were essentially threatened and terrorized against voting for revenue. Now [some] are facing recalls. They operate under a terrorist threat: “You vote for revenue and your career is over.” I don’t know why we allow that kind of terrorism to exist. I guess it’s about free speech, but it’s extremely unfair.


This is the way the left thinks. They don't often admit it, but this idea is more common than they would like to admit.

Israeli government 'under assault' from U.S.

The composition of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government is "under assault" by the U.S. and Europe, says a top minister in the Israeli government.

"It seems there is a coordinated assault between the U.S. and some European countries to remove Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman and his party and to replace them with the Kadima party," the minister said.

The minister spoke on condition his name be withheld due to possible political fallout from his comments. He said he was expressing his belief and does not have any proof of possible U.S.-European collusion to influence the composition of the Israeli government.


Wait a minute. When it comes to Iran, the policy of Obama is not to get involved. But Obama has a whole different set of rules? More proof that Obama is Antisemitic.

Thanks to President Obama Federal Abstinence Education Funding Expires Today

Thanks to President Obama Federal Abstinence Education Funding Expires Today

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com) -- Today marked the end of federal funding of abstinence education under the Title V Abstinence Education Program and the CBAE (Community Based Abstinence Education). Before he took over the White House, President Barack Obama made it clear he would cut abstinence funding.

In Obama's FY 2010 Proposed Budget, the president called for eliminating the funding for abstinence education, which has been successful in helping teenagers make positive decisions.

Instead, Obama called for at least $164 million in funding for contraceptive-only education, which will likely go to pro-abortion groups like Planned Parenthood.

For those of you who voted for Obama because McCain wasn't pro-life enough, this is what you voted for.

Romney Urges Republicans to 'Stand Up' to Obama's Policies - Political News - FOXNews.com

Former presidential candidate Mitt Romney called on Republicans to "stand up" to President Obama and his policies on the economy, health care and energy, in a wide-ranging interview with FOX News.

At a time when Republicans desperately are searching for a unifying leader and message, and Democrats add to their ranks in Congress, the former Massachusetts governor and 2008 presidential candidate took a no-excuses attitude toward his party.

"I think Republicans have to stand up and make it very, very clear that we run the risk as a nation of having the entire world lose confidence in the currency of the United States and that would lead to something worse than a recession -- that would lead to an extraordinary slowdown globally that would hurt us more than any other," Romney told FOX News Tuesday evening.

It's about time somebody with an R next to their name stood up to this joke of a president.

It’s a laugh riot, isn’t it? Actually, they might be laughing more at Gibbs’s feeble way of ducking the question than The One’s looming broken promise, but in Gibbs’s defense, what’s he supposed to say? Obama pounded McCain for wanting to pay for health care by taxing benefits, rode into D.C. promising Change, and now he’s going to eat a crap sandwich by reversing himself because it turns out personal charisma doesn’t work on hard economic numbers. So Axelrod and company have to go out and face the firing squad and “explain” via stuttering half-answers why Barry O lied about this last year. It’s a political microcosm of Obama’s economic M.O.: They borrowed political capital by pledging “no new taxes” to win the election and now down the road the bill’s finally come due.





Maybe the media is starting to get it? But are they willing to report it? I have my doubts.

Jerusalem Post: “6 Mousavi supporters reportedly hanged.”

Politics ends at the water’s edge, so I am not criticizing President Obama for his silence for the first 10 days regarding the attempt to rebel against the Iranian election. I am sure he has his reasons.

I do ask for an explanation.

The Jerusalem Post report is disturbing, although it did note: “Speaking after Iran’s top legislative body upheld the election victory of incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, sources in Iran told this reporter in a telephone interview that the hangings took place in the holy city of Mashhad on Monday. There was no independent confirmation of the report.”

I do blame Obama for what is happening in Iran. The fact is, he is more of a Muslim than an American. His actions (or inaction) speaks as loud as his words (or lack of them).

Rasmussen Reports™: The Most Comprehensive Public Opinion Data Anywhere

Fifty-six percent (56%) of Americans say they are not willing to pay more in taxes and utility costs to generate cleaner energy and fight global warming.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey, taken since the climate change bill was passed on Friday, finds that 21% of Americans are willing to pay $100 more per year for cleaner energy and to counter global warming. Only 14% are willing to pay more than that amount.

More data showing that the American public is starting to get it. Will the media every catch up?
