“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Michele Bachmann calls a spade a spade

Some beltway conservatives are questioning Michele Bachmann's ad in which she throws George W. Bush under the bus for his awful TARP bill....

In a new ad out Wednesday, Bachmann distances herself from Bush and lumps him in with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and President Barack Obama.

“That’s why fought and I voted against the Bush Wall Street bailout, the failed Pelosi trillion-dollar stimulus and Obama’s government takeover of healthcare,” she says in the ad.


Good for her! Bush needed to be thrown under the bus for that disastrous, unconstitutional crap-sandwich. $750billion worth of taxpayer dollars got directed to investment bankers for making what they knew at the time were bad decisions but has assurances from members of congress that they were too big and important to the American economy to be allowed to fail. Remember, it was TARP that started the whole tea-party movement and TARP was George Bush's idea. It stunk then and it still stinks today.

Democrats losing the youth vote


Democrats are clinging to the only two reliable voting blocks they have left to help them retain majorities in both houses of congress, minorities and dumb kids.

We know that minorities reflexively vote democrat because the democrats have convinced them that they don't have the skills, determination, or opportunities to succeed in our racist, white-dominated society without help from them. The youth vote can be explained as simply as stupidity. Kids aren't paying attention except to shows like John Stewart's where they are told what to think and how to vote if they want to be cool. Which makes it clear why the democrats are in a blind panic as polls show them losing even dumb kids as potential voters. The only conclusion I can draw from this is that kids are actually beginning to pay attention enough that even they can see what's going on and how bad for them personally and America in general, the democrat agenda really is. It's about time.

Cookies or cupcakes?


Some dumb, gay students at Purdue got their feelings hurt because a bakery called Just Cookies refused to make them cupcakes.....idiots!

From FoxNation -- An Indianapolis bakery is facing a government investigation over allegations it refused to make rainbow-themed cupcakes for a gay student group.

Members of a lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender group at Indiana University – Purdue University Indianapolis told WISH-TV that Just Cookies denied their request. The cupcakes were to be part of a celebration planned for next month’s National Coming Out Day.

But David Stockton, the owner of Just Cookies, said there was a problem — they don’t make cupcakes. However, there was also another issue.

“We are a family business,” owner David Stockton told WISH-TV. “I have some reservations about whether it should be celebrated. That is where I stand.”


I suspect there was an ulterior motive here on the part of the student org. to get some attention. That said, besides the fact that Just Cookies doesn't even make cupcakes, it's a private business and as such can refuse service to anybody it chooses. Of course it must also accept the market consequences of refusing service to a particular group, but that's how the free market works.

Personally, I think it's a stupid call to refuse to serve gays(gay money being just as green as breeder money) but the owners have a Constitutional right to do just that, without the federal government investigating them for hate crimes.

The real crime here is that supposedly intelligent Purdue students went to a bakery named Just Cookies and demanded cupcakes.....heh heh.

The best of Chris Christie

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is setting the conservative side of America on fire with excitement while infuriating the left, much to my delight. Here are some of his best sound bites. [Skip ahead to the 2:00 mark]



This guy has a big future in American politics. He's plain spoken....no high-brow, lofty, political rhetoric. He makes perfect sense and doesn't take BS from people. If he accomplishes what he intends to accomplish in New Jersey, he may have a shot at higher political office if he wants it. There are a lot of conservatives who'd vote for him today for President....including maybe me.

Zero-G beer.....giggity!


Now here's some research worth doing...

World's first beer to be certified for space consumption will undergo tests in weightlessness to confirm its drinkability.

What's that you say? Why waste money on something so frivolous when people are starving around the world?
Because, when the private-enterprise people get their space tourism businesses off the ground, you can't expect tourists to plop down hundreds of thousands to fly around at zero-Gs and not offer them a refreshing adult beverage to enjoy while they do it, now can you?

Gov. Paterson signs a bill...hilarity ensues

Watch N.Y. Gov. Paterson sign the Stop-and-Frisk bill into law yesterday. If you don't have 30 seconds to spare, click on over to the 29sec mark for the hilarity.



I know I know, I shouldn't make fun of the blind, but come on! You'd think one if his seeing-eyed handlers would discreetly place his hand on the dotted line for the signing rather than have everybody watch as he searched for it. Additionally, he's got to be like 50 years old. Is it possible that the one eye that barely works is near sighted such that he can resolve a dotted line from like an inch away or does he just want to appear to be looking at the document when he scribbles on it?

Rumors of Christine O'Donnell's political demise were exaggerated



Scott Rasmussen has Christine O'Donnell within 9% points of Obama-lapdog Chris Coons. O'Donnell is at 40% with likely voters and Coons is at 49% which is huge because it puts him below the magical 50% mark and shows he's no cinch. In fact, it looks like the possible, idiotic write-in campaign by defeated incumbent Mike Castle might siphon votes away from Coons rather than O'Donnell as was assumed by the clueless media. There were 15 points separating them a week ago when Rove and Krauthammer gave her no chance at all. I'm not predicting a win and it's still a long uphill climb but, Coons is by no means a certain winner any more.

The problem with US schools in a nutshell

FoxNews is horrified that some schools are denying your precious snowflake's right to a lollipop as an academic performance bribe....

From FoxNews -- Schools have cut out junk food and sweets from their vending machines, cafeterias and birthday parties. One Franklin County district's leader is taking it a step further.

Bexley Superintendent Michael Johnson recently told staff members to consider an alternative to candy when rewarding or motivating students.

"It's common enough that I've been hearing complaints about it, kids coming home with three or four lollipops in their mouths at the same time," he said.


I'm sorry, but if your fat, dumb kid can't add 4 to 3 without being given candy as an incentive, then perhaps you aren't the terrific parent you think you are. This is why the US ranks near the bottom in every academic category. Mollycoddling and self-esteem stroking.

There's no place in school for birthday parties, lollipops, or cupcakes. School is for competitive learning where failing grades result in failure and self-esteem is earned not awarded.

Proven torture at Club Gitmo

As democrats have long warned us, unspeakable acts of torture by marines at the Guantanamo Bay facility continue. Intrepid reporterette Carol Rosenberg is reporting that terrorist detainees can only have one ice-cream dessert per meal.....the horror! THE HORROR!

Detainees’ diets at Guantanamo Bay have been a controversial issue for some time and now the U.S. prison is said to be rationing ice cream.

The frozen dessert is allegedly being tightly measured, with only one ice cream allowed for each of its 147 detainees.

Journalist for The Miami Herald, Carol Rosenberg, photographed a refrigerator at Guantanamo, with two signs reading ‘DETAINEE FOOD ONLY’ and ‘Only 1 Ice Cream For each detainee!’

Here's PresBO unmercifully taunting the detainees with what appears to be a delicious scoop of Caramel Cream with nuts. There'll be hell to pay if Michelle gets wind of her hubby eating food that's not on her approved list for healthy choice dining.

Into the abyss


If troubled, celebrity nitwit Lindsay Lohan isn't already at the top of your celebrity deadpool, she should be. Unverified pictures have surfaced of her at a party with Paris Hilton in 2007 which show her mainlining heroin. She was 21 at the time.

Good grief, how miserably awful are her parents? I nominate Michael and Dina Lohan as worst celebrity parents of all time. We've been making jokes at her expense for at least 10 years, but she's only 24 years old....I'd have sworn she was 34.

The only problem with putting LiLo at the top of your deadpool is that the more expected their demise, the less points you score when they finally manage to kill themselves. Now, John Ritter's untimely death scored a lot of points for anybody who had him in their top 25....nobody saw that coming....just sayin'.
