The Old White Party, Now That’s Rich
Feb 17, 2008 Political
Frank Rich, one of the idiots at the New York Times, has an opinion piece entitled The Grand Old White Party, where he discusses the GOP and John McCain. He depicts the GOP as a bunch of angry white men who exploit blacks in the south and southern racism in order to hold onto to power. With Rich, everything that happened in history is racially motivated. Rich seems to think that Barack Obama brings a fresh face to politics and that fresh face shows the GOP to be even more tied to its “racist” past than before.
Never mind that it was the Republican Party that ended slavery because even the blacks seem to have forgotten that as they have continually registered as Democrats for decades. Rich is heaping all this GOP, angry white racists, on his readers while ignoring that in this primary season it has been the whites in the Democratic Party who have been injecting race. Joe Biden and his comments, Bill Clinton and his and any number of others who question if Obama can win because he is black. Instead of focusing on the racism in the Democratic Party and the angry white men there (like Robert “sheets” Byrd, former KKK member), Rich wants to show the GOP as not being inclusive because it has no black members in the House or Senate. Rich is too stupid to understand that blacks make up about 13% of the population and 90% of that group generally (with few exceptions) votes Democrat (especially in presidential races). Therefore, there are not very many blacks available to run for office on the GOP side. What I would ask is, given the huge number of blacks who are Democrats how come their numbers are not larger among the Democrats in the House and the Senate?
I understand that Rich is a liberal and that he has drunk the liberal kool-aid. I can understand he is one who probably gets weak kneed when Obama speaks and is probably all ga ga at the prospect of voting for a woman or a black man. But what he is doing in this piece is shilling for Obama. First he shows the GOP as racists who do not include blacks and then he shows McCain as an angry white guy who has better opinions than most in the GOP because he has said things that Rich believes to be correct such as the Confederate Flag is a symbol of racism. That is patently stupid and it is obviously wrong. The Confederate Flag is NOT a symbol of racism, it is a symbol a bunch of apologists have assigned to racism. The civil war was not about racism and it was not about slavery (though without slavery there might not have been a war). But I digress, we can discuss the North’s war of aggression on the South some other time.
The entire opinion piece seems, to me at least, to be designed to build up Obama’s bonafides while casting the GOP as a group of racists so that when the general election comes anything used against Obama will be seen as a racist attack. It is designed to paint the GOP as out of touch with a country that has evolved to be so much more inclusive now that a woman and a black are fighting it out. In Rich’s world, the GOP is out of touch because it does not embrace the failed polices of liberalism (which has been called a mental disorder). The people who belong to the GOP have no problem with a black or a woman being president, just not this black (OK, half black) and that woman. We would be against these two if they were white men because we do not like the message. The vessel the message comes in is not important to the equation.
Of course, Rich thought John Edwards look presidential. It stands to reason that in Rich’s new diverse world a feminine looking and acting man would be presidential. Since Rich is big into stereotypes (but only when attacking the GOP) let me stereotype. Edwards looks like a faggot and is not presidential. Hillary looks more manly than Edwards (and many other men as well, the lesbians love that).
Before Frank Rich starts attacking the GOP for what he believes is our out of step and racist policies perhaps he should look at his own party and get them straight first. Besides the racial overtones from both camps (the Clintons and their racist remarks and the Obama supporters with the notion that not voting for Obama makes one a racist) there are plenty of party elders who are angry old white guys. Over half of the Super Delegates are old white establishment guys and they could very well decide the nomination in favor of Hillary Clinton even if Obama is leading at the time. Interestingly, the angry white guy who will lose for the GOP big time in 2008 (our demise according to Rich) is also the demographic that could be the undoing of the Democratic Party. If the party elders screw Obama, blacks might finally see what they actually mean to their party and flock to the GOP or stay home.
In either case, the Democrats would lose across the board in November. Nothing would be sweeter than to have the Democratic Party break apart in this fashion. They have used covert racism for decades to keep blacks under their thumbs. Yes, programs like affirmative action which the GOP hates, is nothing more than the left telling blacks they are not good enough to compete on their own so they need help. Just like welfare, public housing, minority business preferences, and a myriad of programs designed to help out blacks because they, according to their handlers in the Democratic Party, are not able to do anything without help. Covert racism plain and simple. It will be good to finally see the Democrats come out of the closet (to use a phrase espoused by another heavily Democratic demographic) at their national convention and show their racism right out in the open.
I wonder what Frank Rich will have to say then? Won’t matter because if his circulation keeps dropping the only people who will know what he thinks are the latte drinkers who hang out with him at Starbucks…

Why to Reject McCain
Feb 2, 2008 Political
Senator John McCain is clearly the front runner for the Republican nod to go up against the Democratic nominee and polls show he has the best chance to beat either of the two remaining on their ticket. Of course, no polls show how McCain would match up against them if they decided to run as a team. McCain came back from near death to take the lead and this was, in part, because of the boost he received from the media. The media love him as an alternative to their guys on the left because he differs little from them on a number of positions. He would be their choice if they had to have another Republican in the White House.
McCain has tried to put his conservative credentials up front and he hopes that people will buy them. No matter how you wrap up a skunk, it is still a skunk. McCain has been involved in legislation that restricted the right to free speech and strengthen the ability of incumbents to win. He has been involved in legislation that would leave our borders weak but provide a path to citizenship to millions of ILLEGALS. Many tout the bill as amnesty though it looks more like a payoff.
McCain is a war veteran and he is Hawkish on the war. His statement that we would have troops in Iraq for 100 years was probably a realization that we would have bases there after the war much as we do in Europe and Korea. I don’t think he believes we will be fighting that war in 100 years. However, McCain has many issues that have been brought to the forefront but he ignores them or spins them with Clinton like efficiency. To add to his woes, the New York Times has endorsed him on the Republican side though they will no doubt back whomever the Democrats end up nominating. The Times is the intelligence report for terrorists and has been the enemy of the right for a long, long, time.
Today, John McCain picked up the endorsement of the country’s largest Spanish language newspaper. La Opinion endorsed Barack Obama (a blow to Clinton, no doubt) and John McCain. In its McCain endorsement it points to issues that it does not like but they are thrilled by his pro ILLEGAL immigrant stance:
The Arizona senator’s longtime position on immigration would by itself be reason enough to support his candidacy, but there are more reasons why we believe he should win the Republican primary.
His stance on immigration is reason enough to endorse him and that should give alarm to conservatives because this paper rejected Clinton, in part, because of her stance (this week anyway) on giving driver’s licenses to ILLEGALS. John McCain can say he has heard the people and he can tout that he is from a border state and understands the issue but in reality he is an amigo to ILLEGALS and he has fractured the Republican party in Arizona.
John McCain has been pushed upon the public by the media because they would like to see him as the fail safe plan if a Democrat loses. McCain has had weak positions on core conservative values and there is concern as to what he would do as president, especially if the Democrats retain control of both chambers. There are those who say that in order to legislate that you have to reach across the aisle and that is what McCain has done. Unfortunately, he has reached out on the wrong issues. There is a time to compromise and there is a time to stand firm on principles. John McCain abandoned principles a long time ago when he abandoned the POWs left behind in Vietnam.
There are also issues with his endorsements. He spews a long list of Republicans that have endorsed him. I am sure most of them have latched on in order to secure a position in a McCain administration. Rudy and Arnold are looking for jobs with McCain and I can see him making Rudy the Attorney General and Arnold the Secretary of Homeland Security. Many others who have endorsed him are no doubt friends who have served with him in the Senate or who have been involved in some of his antics over the years.
I believe that one needs to look at those who will not have a job with him. Ann Coulter, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and countless other conservative pundits see him for what he is and are not happy with the prospect of a McCain presidency. Maybe McCain likes to believe he was a foot soldier in the Reagan revolution because Ronald Reagan granted amnesty to 4 million ILLEGALS (another Kennedy bill) but these people are the real foot soldiers in the conservative movement and we should pay attention to their opinions before taking a decision. Theirs is certainly as informed as the opinions of people jockeying for a job in January of 2009.

Giuliani to Bow Out, Endorse RINO McCain
Jan 29, 2008 Political
Rudy Giuliani placed all his marbles in a sack named Florida and lost them earlier today when John McCain and Mitt Romney placed ahead of him in the winner take all delegate fest. Giuliani ignored the earlier states and concentrated on Florida where a large number of New Yorkers come to spend the winters. It seems to me that Giuliani should have known that a large number of those New Yorkers would be Democrats and therefore could not vote for him. In any event, it looks like he will bow out as early as tomorrow morning and he will throw his support behind John McCain.
There is not a lot of difference between these two. Both are RINOs who embrace ILLEGAL immigrants. Giuliani has had three wives and McCain dumped his first wife after she had a terrible accident and gained weight so he could marry some younger chick. Giuliani and McCain are cut from the same cloth and either would bring the party closer to the liberal points of view. McCain has worked on so many bills with Ted Kennedy that there is probably a McCain room at the Kennedy compound. Each bill was terrible and the one he worked on with Senator Feingold took away the free speech rights of people and strengthened the position of the incumbents.
I guess Giuliani will support McCain and hope for the nod as VP or Attorney General and in order to do that Rudy would have to get on board with the Republican who many people believe could beat any of the Democrats. According to polls, that would be John McCain. Perhaps he could win. He is whiter than Obama and there are some people who are still hung up about color, he has more experience than Hillary and Obama combined and he is less abrasive than Hillary. Maybe he could actually win. The media loves him and the New York Times endorsed him most likely because he has the same liberal views that they do. Of course McCain has some conservative views that they don’t like (like his support for the war) but I have this feeling a President McCain would go to the southern border and invite the illegals in by the truck full. His immigration stance should make everyone worry as should this person who is working with him.
Well Giuliani ran a terrible campaign and spent millions of dollars to give it a run in one state and he came in third. That does not sound like the kind of guy we need running the war or our country. As he departs it tightens up the field a bit and makes tsunami Tuesday that much more meaningful. One other blessing is that we will not have to hear him mention 9/11 or Ronald Reagan again. In the debates it seemed like every other sentence was 9/11 or Ronald Reagan as if Rudy believed he were anything like Reagan or that anyone in the US did not know about him and 9/11.
It should be fun starting tomorrow.

No Muslim Should Ever Be President
Sep 29, 2007 Uncategorized
I Finally Agree with McCain — Almost.
John McCain was interviewed by the website Beliefnet and in that interview he said that America was founded on Christian principles and that he did not want to see a Muslim in the White House and that Christians should be elected to office, though he said a Mormon would be OK. I believe that those country was founded on Christian principles but I think people some other faiths would make good Presidents. Jews could certainly hold that office without a problem and a Mormon would not bother me. I do agree that a Muslim should never hold that office and neither should a Satanic Worshiper (or Satan aka Hillary).
Some of the Muslims apologists, namely CAIR, complained about McCain’s statement and he had to clarify it by saying that a Muslim would be OK if it was the right person. This is the kind of back peddling that politicians do that infuriate me. State you belief and be done with it. Changing positions makes you look like a Clinton (who have no beliefs except the belief that they belong in power).
Now, I am not suggesting that any Christian would be a good candidate because McCain would not. He abandoned our POWs in Vietnam, he backs amnesty for the ILLEGALS and he called me and people like me racists for not agreeing with the amnesty bill. He is not fit to run this country and neither is Kennedy, Pelosi, or Murtha, all whom I believe profess to be Christians or members of a Christian religion.
Let me make this clear so that idiots like Ibrahim Hooper and the rest of the terrorists at CAIR and other Muslim apology groups can understand it. Do not demand that I clarify my statements because they are clear and to the point.
No Muslim should ever be the president of the United States. Muslims are intolerant and are forcing their way of life into our country with no regard for the beliefs and feeling of others. Muslims complain when we eat at our desks, when we serve pork products in school or work cafeterias, they complain because they do not have a place to wash their feet, they complain about Christmas and Halloween not being inclusive and concern about their feelings is causing at least one school system to stop acknowledging those days but there is no mention of ignoring Ramadan. Let that happen and we are a bunch of bigots. I would also note that Muslims are not tolerant of Jews and one idiot Muslim wants to eliminate them from the Earth.
Muslims have primitive beliefs imposed by a child molester named Mohammad who waged war on neighbors and killed those who would not submit and convert to the religion of maniac killers known as Islam. Mohammad is a false prophet who pretended to speak with Allah in order to do what he wanted without punishment. Allah’s will and all that. The truth is, Mohammad was a degenerate who killed for fun and had sex with a nine year old girl. He has spawned a religion of people who beat women to death for failing to cover up or for being the victims of rape. Islam is a religion of bigots who murder homosexuals and oppress women. They strap bombs to their kids and have them kill themselves in the name of Allah or Mohammad (pig be under him). They have also expressed a desire to replace our Constitution with Sharia Law (a law of morons).
Let me restate in case Hooper or any other idiot did not get it.
NO MUSLIM SHOULD EVER BE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
We will never allow our people to come under the rule of Muslims or Sharia Law. There are a few dhimmis in this country but the real patriots will not let the Muslims take over. They are one of the enemies within.
The other enemy is the Democratic Party.
