Dancing With the Bureaucrats

Primetime bloviating. Pat Buchanan's problem. The New South. Czars. Plus more.

(Page 3 of 3)

It has been my experience that "New South" equals "Old Liberalism In A New Package."

HATE SQUAD
Re: Matthew Vadum's Obama's Plan to Desecrate 9/11:

What unbelievable un-American and divisive rhetoric! Who does Matthew Vadum think he is? The one and only framer of the meaning of patriotism? We're a nation, not a group of thugs who demonize our neighbors when we disagree. I'm no flaming LIBRUL, but I'll most likely become one after reading his garbage. Would Matthew Vadum prefer a day of "Hate" to one of good will? I guess he's entitled to his opinion, but his writing smells of vicious name-calling. Keep writing, Matthew maybe the more Americans will be recruited to your "Hate Squad."

THE STEPFORD PRESIDENT
Re: Peter Ferrara's All the President's Nuts:

Obama ... Obama ... Obama. Hmmmmm. Oh wait a minute. Isn't that the humble young man who always denies credit for his silently appointed czars' left-of-left proposed plans...to upgrade the unions, take over big industries, free the naughty people who planned and executed an attack on the United States? Is that the guy who spread all the credit for his un-stimulating economy-saving plan among some dozen Democrat leaders who promptly refused to read whatever it was they had written? If the news media would only reveal his picture once in a while, I would have recognized him in a minute; and if that same dependable news media would only publish his speeches once in a while, I would have been better prepared. But yes, now I'll know him when I see him at the next Town Hall meeting. Yes indeed. The first Stepford president. Yeah, now I know. Now I know.
-- Nancy Murphy

DIMINISHING APPLAUSE
The curtain falls
With no curtain calls.
It’s time to get out the hook.
The part’s been played.
He’s overstayed.
His downfall is by the book.

The adage is true.
There is nothing new.
He’s predictable to the core.
He has never heard
The admonishing word,
"Always leave them wanting more."

As the makeup comes off,
As the bright lights dim,
Some may have trouble
Remembering him.
-- Mimi Evans Winship

Why were there no 9/11/01 stories on 9/11/09?

"It is all too clear that Hitler was a racist, but then so was Churchill."

this is like saying "Stalin killed innocents after WWII, but so did Truman."

I like Buchanan for pointing out the lib double standard is the 8th wonder of the world.

When Jacko and Ted are heroes then you KNOW something is wrong.

When I was a kid my country was under Hitler's fascists. Several of my friends in school had to bear Star of David on their jackets. so everybody would know they were Jews (later on most of them disappeared). I liked them because they were mean chess players - the only ones that could put up a good resistance to my chess viles. My mother, an old-time Roman Catholic, would critisize me for those friendships of mine - you know, the Jews killed Jesus. Then one day I told her that Jesus himself was a Jew - and she was flabbergasted! She never thought of that! Since then it was the end of her anti-semitism.
