Sarah Palin: Is The Bloom Off Her Rose? [Full Thread]

Tea party-backed candidates for the US Senate are offering tepid comments on Sarah Palin's qualifications for high office. Other Republican candidates decline to join her at GOP fundraiser. Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin speaks at a benefit dinner for Faulkner University in Montgomery, Ala., Thursday, Oct. 7.(Jamie Martin/AP) By Brad Knickerbocker, Staff writer posted October 9, 2010 at 4:52 pm EDT Did we miss something, or is the bloom a bit off Sarah Palin’s rose?

Mr. Paladino and the System

Carl Paladino, the Republican nominee for governor of New York, portrays himself as a business-hardened outsider who would reform Albany’s corrupt and bloated bureaucracy and drive out the pay-to-play special interests. “I’m just a regular guy from Buffalo,” he says. A look at his record as a developer shows that he has been an eager recipient of just the sort of government largess he so bitterly condemns and a generous contributor to politicians who can best do him favors. His flourishing real estate business was stoked with tax breaks, multimillion-dollar state leases and government land giveaways. At the same time, he used his partnerships and corporations to donate ...
Obion County Fire Tragedy Symbolizes Tea-Party-Republican Vision of Government [Full Thread]

This week, MSNBC's Keith Olbermann reported the story of the Cranick family's house fire. When the family's Obion County, Tennessee house caught fire on the night of October 5th, the fire department from the nearby town failed to respond since the Cranick's had forgotten to pay a $75 fee. Firefighters finally responded to a call by Cranick's neighbor, who had paid his fee. They sprayed the property line to protect the home of the neighbor and watched at the Cranick's home burned to the ground. The firefighters had been ordered not to intervene to save the Cranick's house -- even though they were already at the scene -- because, apparently, it would have ...
Fox News Fail: Are Viewers Getting Smarter?
Post Date: 2010-10-05 23:21:22 by Brian S

Yesterday, the cable news ratings showed that Fox News -- that bastion of conservative bias and lies -- is losing viewers. Thus far, their viewership has decreased by 21 percent and their top shows all posted double digit losses, while MSNBC’s shows grew and the network attracted more younger viewers. So, maybe people are actually interested in getting the truth? Personally, I am thrilled. This summer, I was involved in a story about the Pledge of Allegiance that Fox News blew up. I broke it and they ran with it. Career-wise, it was great as it bumped up the numbers for the site I was editing, but it was the first time I saw the Fox News spin at work. And it was disturbing. They ...

A note to Tea Party activists: This is not the movie you think it is. You probably imagine that you’re starring in “The Birth of a Nation,” but you’re actually just extras in a remake of “Citizen Kane.” True, there have been some changes in the plot. In the original, Kane tried to buy high political office for himself. In the new version, he just puts politicians on his payroll. I mean that literally. As Politico recently pointed out, every major contender for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination who isn’t currently holding office and isn’t named Mitt Romney is now a paid contributor to Fox News. Now, media moguls have often promoted the ...
Got an ad from Ted Strickland Today

1 Comments
The ad I got in the mail today was a direct shot at Kasich. It was called Kasich's dirty dozen. It pointed out and reminded me of Kasich's votes to against the second amendment. He voted for the assault weapons ban that Schumer sponsored. He voted against repealing the ban later in 1996. The ad also said that Strickland had a perfect voting record on the second amendment with the NRA. The Ohio buckeye gunowners or something like that also endorsed him along with a couple of other gun groups. I already said I wasn't voting for Kasich and this strengthens that conviction. Not enough to get me to vote for Strickland though. Even though he hasn't pissed me off to much as ...
The New Antiwar Populism; The Neocons Are In A Panic Over It

The War Party is running scared – and with good reason. Writing in the Washington Post, neocons Danielle Pletka and Thomas Donnelly are in a panic that the rising “tea party” movement, which upended the Republican establishment at the polls, is about to abandon “the defense of freedom” in faraway Afghanistan in favor of rescuing what’s left of our freedom closer to home: “Since World War II, a touchstone of American conservatism has been the defense of freedom. The freedoms of others were regarded as essential to secure and enjoy our own. In 2010, however, the conservative movement – and the party that seeks to represent it – is at a crossroads. ...

"We're all on the same page until the polls close Nov. 2," Richard Viguerie, the longtime conservative strategist who has allied with the Tea Party, told The New York Times. After that, "a massive, almost historic battle for the heart and soul of the Republican Party begins." Indeed, such a battle seems unavoidable. Consider. The great issue uniting and motivating the Republican Party and Tea Party is the deficit-debt crisis, a national debt nearing 100 percent of gross domestic product and a deficit of 10 percent of GDP. As to the cause of the deficit that could precipitate a run on the dollar, double-digit inflation, even a default, the Tea Party and GOP also ...
Republicans I Will Not Vote For

The election is coming up and it looks to be a sweep for Republicans this time around. I will not vote for John Kasich. He wants to be Governor of Ohio. He is a supporter of NAFTA and globalization. So it is a no vote for him. Mike Dewine is also a no vote. He also voted for NAFTA and similar bills. He supported the gutting of habeas corpus. Screw him too. Rob Portman. I probably will not be voting for him either. Isn't he a globalist too?
The Very Useful Idiocy of Christine O’Donnell

ALL it took was some 30,000 Republican primary voters in a tiny state to turn Christine O’Donnell into the brightest all-American media meteor since Balloon Boy. For embattled liberals, not to mention the axis of Comedy Central, “Saturday Night Live” and Bill Maher, she’s been pure comic gold for weeks: a bottomless trove of baldfaced lies, radical views and sheer wackiness. True, other American politicians have dismissed evolution as a myth. Some may even have denied joining a coven. But history will always remember her for taking a fearless stand against masturbation, the one national pastime with more fans than baseball. Yet those laughing now may not have the last ...

ODF militiamen Frank Delollis, right, signals for a patrol party to turn around while searching the Old Roseville Prison property in Roseville, Ohio for enemy combatants during the Ohio Defense Force's annual FTX on Aug. 21, 2010. Camouflaged and silent, the assault team inched toward a walled stone compound for more than five hours, belly-crawling the last 200 yards. The target was an old state prison in eastern Ohio, and every handpicked member of Red Team 2 knew what was at stake: The year is 2014, and a new breed of neo-Islamic terrorism is rampant in Michigan, Illinois, Indiana and Ohio ...

Perhaps the Most Ridiculous Thing to Come Out of Washington Since George McClellan (Redstate on GOP Pledge)

The House Republicans’ “Pledge to America” is out. A thrill will run up the leg of a few Chris Matthews’ types on the right. As Dan noted on Twitter, the Contract with America was 869 words and this is 21 pages. The Contract told you everything you needed to know about how a Republican Congress would be different from a Democrat Congress after 40 years of Democrat control. These 21 pages tell you lots of things, some contradictory things, but mostly this: it is a serious of compromises and milquetoast rhetorical flourishes in search of unanimity among House Republicans because the House GOP does not have the fortitude to lead boldly in opposition to Barack Obama. I ...
A GOP Pledge to Do Nothing [Full Thread]

I had a good chuckle at Erick Erickson’s enraged piece on the Republican pledge, now being circulated by Democratic spinmeisters. Question for Erickson: What did he expect? Here is the GOP cruising to a handsome election victory. Did you seriously imagine that they would jeopardize the prospect of victory and chairmanships by issuing big, bold promises to do deadly unpopular things? But if the document is unsurprising, it’s also unsurprising that Erickson and those who think like him would find it enraging. The “Pledge to America” is a repudiation of the central, foundational idea behind the Tea Party. Tea Party activists have been claiming all year that there exists ...
Tea With Little Sympathy For US

The Tea Party’s startling win in the Delaware Republican primary is a cruel blow to Grand Old Party hopes of gaining control in the US Senate. Christine O’Donnell was the Tea Party’s choice and had the backing of Sarah Palin, darling of the conservative insurgents. Mike Castle, the man she defeated for the party’s nomination, had been the clear favourite to win in November. Every respected pollster sees Ms O’Donnell, with her record of political failure and train of financial baggage, as a weak candidate likely to lose to the Democrat in the general election. With the margin of control in the Senate expected to be narrow, that is bad enough. But do the implications ...
The NeoCons Make Unapologetic Call for McCarthyism against Muslims
Post Date: 2010-09-18 21:56:09 by Brian S

One of the successors to the NeoCon organization PNAC, the Center for Security Policy, released a report the other day that makes an unapologetic call for trumped up McCarthyism targeted at Muslims. The study rather humorously models itself on Team B–the alternate analysis Poppy Bush ordered up to paint the Soviet Union as an ongoing threat in 1976. They do so, apparently, in an effort to invoke St. Ronnie’s use of Team B’s “analysis” for electoral gain and ultimately to point to the usefulness of ideology to generate political support for foreign policy adventures. But nowhere do they bother to mention that Team B’s analysis was famously, embarrassingly wrong. ...
Neocon Grand Chess Game Has Failed In Afghanistan

The Neocon grand chess game as per Zbigniew Brzezinski has failed in Afghanistan. America is in no position today or for the foreseeable future to hegemonise Central Asia and contain China through the dismemberment of Pakistan as the region where this conflict would have been played out. India has failed in this grand design. The Neo Cons for the moment have been driven away by the American Public – yes they will return in one form or another, this is inevitable but the world and strategic shape of the region would have changed. The reality is, America needs a stable Central Asia, it needs Chinese Money and certainly is in no hurry to dismember Pakistan and get bogged down in a ...

There’s no excuse for misquoting and misunderstanding the US Constitution. But public figures ranging from Nancy Pelosi to Rush Limbaugh do it all the time.

Forget the neoconservative hype. The facts show Iran is not and has not been a nuclear threat to either the United States or Israel. By Scott Hortonposted September 17, 2010 at 12:42 pm EDT Los Angeles — Politicians, lobbyists, and propagandists have spent nearly two decades pushing the lie that Iran poses a nuclear weapons threat to the United States and Israel. After a brief respite in the intensity of the wolf cries over the past two years, the neoconservative movement has decided to relaunch the “Must Bomb Iran” brand. The fact that Iran is not and has not been a nuclear threat to either nation is rendered irrelevant by a narrative of universal ...
Tea Party Take Over – The Answer To Obama’s Prayers

With no end to the jobs drought in sight and an economy struggling to get air, life has not been particularly good this year for Barack Obama. So difficult are the challenges faced by the White House, had you asked me at the beginning of the week if I thought the president stood much of a chance to be re-elected, I would have argued that failing a massive and unlikely turn around in the jobs picture and a dramatic change in fortune in Afghanistan, we would be welcoming a Republican president into office come January 2013. But that was before Tuesday, September 14, 2010 – the day Sarah Palin may well have guaranteed that the Democrats will remain the majority party in the Senate and the ...

Primary Day 2010: The Tea Party’s Snarl Democratic operatives are ablaze with excitement over the victory of two particularly dubious Tea Party candidates in Tuesday’s Republican primaries, envisioning smoother paths to victory in the races for governor in New York and United States senator in Delaware. But for voters of all stripes, Tuesday’s primaries should illuminate the growling face of a new fringe in American politics — and provide the incentive for level-headed voters to become enthusiastic about the midterm election. Republican leaders have to decide if they want the tiny fraction of furious voters who have showed up at the primary polls to steer them into ...
The Tax Cut Racket [Full Thread]

“Nice middle class you got here,” said Mitch McConnell, the Senate minority leader. “It would be a shame if something happened to it.” O.K., he didn’t actually say that. But he might as well have, because that’s what the current confrontation over taxes amounts to. Mr. McConnell, who was self-righteously denouncing the budget deficit just the other day, now wants to blow that deficit up with big tax cuts for the rich. But he doesn’t have the votes. So he’s trying to get what he wants by pointing a gun at the heads of middle-class families, threatening to force a jump in their taxes unless he gets paid off with hugely expensive tax breaks for the ...

With their loud voices and antic style, the "tea party" activists may lead voters to expect something new and different if the Republican Party returns to power. But observing the man who would wield that power if his party wins a midterm majority should swiftly dispel that illusion. There is nothing fresh or surprising about Rep. John Boehner, R-Ohio, the would-be speaker, a figure so closely associated with corporate special interests that he looks, sounds and behaves exactly like a lobbyist. He golfs, drinks, smokes and maintains an unusually bronzed complexion thanks to company jets that whisk him away to his favorite Florida resorts. He seems as if he could have stepped ...

The Republicans with the aid of the tea party have took a right turn. It is a turn back in the right direction. This is known as the Palin affect. She is largely responsible for the parties moving to the right. She has helped knock off a string of establishment candidates seeking election this year. She is showing that she is truly from the right and the voters are responding. The Democrats are in panic and they know their party is shrinking. People don't want a party that is anti America. They are sick and tired of Barack Obama and his baby killing democrats. Sarah Palin will have some favors when the Presidential campaign starts. She has proved with her endorsements that she backs ...
