Revealing His True Nature

Many thanks, Obama. The Brokaw record. Ronald Wilson Whitman? Cranky Pat Buchanan, plus more.

STUPID AND TACKY
Re: Ben Stein’s Thank You, Barack Obama:

Ben Stein pretty much nailed it in his condemnation of Obama on who he associates with but he appeared to leave out one very relevant statement by the “sainted” (at least by that great judge of character Howard Dean) Van Jones. This is, as I recall, the idiot who expressed solidarity with his “Islamic brothers” the day after the 911 attack. Stupid, tacky, as we in the South used to say, untimely, and oh so revealing of his true nature and feelings. Surely the Jewish electorate will one day wake up and support its real friends. I once heard Mona Charen lament the oft suspicion of Evangelicals by Jews when she said essentially, “We need to wake up, they (evangelicals) love us and support us and we need to reciprocate such.” I also pray that someday most Black Americans who have much more in common with Conservatives will also awaken and vote in the real interests of America and their own self interest.

Ben has lost his mind. As an Independent who voted for Reagan and Clinton, I will assure you that the response by Republicans to making real change in America by the Republican Party is being noticed by rational clear-minded people. Also I will give you an unsolicited view of what’s to come in American politics. I work in a field that allows me to talk with people from almost all social economic classes and the Republican Party as you see it today is a modern day dinosaur in the middle of meteor shower.

I will second the motion of thanks. Barack Obama has done more in eight months to unite and motivate conservatives and promote their values than George W. Bush did in eight years. With friends like George W. Bush, conservatives didn’t need enemies, but now, with enemies as incompetent as Barack Obama, they don’t need friends. I am enjoying the change very much. Barack Obama reminds me of the general fighting a battle in the Italian Wars of Unification who was so incompetent that his opposite number forbade his troops from shooting at him, in case he became a casualty and more competent commander took over.

While Obama has given conservatives and Republicans a lot since he was elected, especially since taking office, the Republicans still must find a lot: an appealing message; the testicular to advance it; the wherewithal to understand that the country club gentility won’t work with Democrats, liberals and leftists; and the unity to show RINOs the door.

IF IT’S BROKAW FIX IT
Re: Jeffrey Lord’s Media Malpractice: Tom Brokaw’s World Implodes:

Great story. I’ll keep this one to share with my students and my children.

THANK YOU, Mr. Lord. You are simply invaluable to conservative thought and commentary. May you continue good health and to provide such important commentary for many years to come.
— Roger Ross

Tomahawk, WisconsinThank God the truth is finally getting out there in some manner. Jeffery Lord nails the blatant dishonesty of not just Brokaw, but the “old Media” as well. By omission, as well as commission, the OM have defiled, defamed, denigrated and shamed journalism. How can Brokaw claim that the Internet is unfiltered and mis-state the truth when they are actually running film of the likes of Van Jones and these ACORN criminals? The films are clear, the words are understandable, and the intent to deceive could not be clearer. Thank you for this refreshing rebuttal to the insipid Tom Brokaw.
— Jimmy Hall

Brilliant read, Mr. Lord, except that you left out what my Vietnam Vet husband would say was the media’s greatest failure, that of turning a winning war into a losing one, single-handedly and with great contempt. This story alone deserves our contempt. Even our enemies in North Vietnam felt they were losing the war and were stunned to read in the NYT that America was conceding defeat. That along with the horrendous behavior elicited by the public and conveniently proffered by the press, should have caused these folks to be named as Traitors and sentenced in prison.

You will find no sympathy or concern as these giants fall into bankruptcy. Not one single event clipped from the Houston Chronicle or NYT, over 40 years ago, about his company’s/Brigade’s actions was ever accurate or true. One reading the news, serving abroad, could not recognize the events put in print or spoken over the news at night. Single handedly the press conquered the military and doomed military men coming home to be vilified and reviled. May they all fall into disuse and be disrespected for slanting our news. They do not even deserve to line bird cages.

Good riddance!
—Beverly Gunn

The “Meet the Press” discussion described in Jeffrey Lord’s excellent article symbolizes the changing times. The “mainstream media” are gone. These individuals are like the dinosaurs who, 65 million years ago, brayed ineffectively at the cold and ice that inexorably began to engulf and immobilize them. At the present, they’re the has-been media, destined to become fossils of bygone days.

A+++ Well done!

Well done, sir.

Mr. Dooley,
Bravo! Well said!
You captured what was in my heart more eloquently than I could express it.

IMKessel| 9.16.09 @ 10:26AM

Misters Dooley, Holland, Amos and Mrs. Gunn, excellent commentary today. I proudly stand with you to lend a voice to reason and patriotic spirit.

Regarding Anonymous's claims of the Republican party being a dinosaur. In many ways, he's right in that it's corrupted by moderates who enjoy going out for drinks and "compromising" with the left and anti-taxpayer interests.

That said, however, I love comparisons of conservatives to dinosaurs. Let's review: The dinosaurs lasted for tens of millions of years and it took a meteor shower to knock 'em out. On the other hand, the liberals have always NEEDED dinosaurs to generate tax revenue to keep their short lived illusion of socialist happiness going (illusion because they're continually miserable and blaming their benefactors for the visible failures of their ideology).

The left welcomes a meteorite strike because, like vandals, tearing down society is all they're good at. Actually accomplishing things eludes them such as a utopia where the poor can benefit (the few socialist countries they worship have tight immigration controls.)

Mr. Dooley,

Extremely well spoken on behalf of many of us sir.

Thanks

S.L. Toddard| 9.16.09 @ 1:48PM

Mr Brooks, what is it you hate so much about Joe Sobran? He seems an odd choice of nemeses.

Alan Brooks| 9.16.09 @ 8:37PM

Will have to think about it.
So in the meantime, why do you hate GW Bush, Toddard?
why do BTW, insist on baby talk. not to go tit for tat again-- but you do waste time-- which is so precious?

IMKessel| 9.16.09 @ 8:40PM

No Frost in the forecast?

Alan Brooks| 9.16.09 @ 8:42PM

I feel sad you waste so much time here-- mostly your own.
Perhaps not hate, however you at the least dislike Bush strongly, Toddard; even though he is not in power today.

I don't care about him either way. Remember it was Carter who opened the can of worms in Afghanistan by demonstrating to the Soviets that he was a pushover; the Russkies thought it was relatively safe to invade in '78.

Sir's, and Mam's of course,

My Advice Is to Get the Book By Miles Copland:
The Game of Nations. It Covers the Mideast Conflict from the inception of Israel in 1947 through the 1967 Six day War.

The Cover Page States, for the Title of Chapters,
1. If you can Not Change the Player's, Change the rules.
2. If you can Not Change the Rules, Change the Players.

Now I'm Not Saying that the Smoke and Mirror's Concept doesn't Alway's, Work.
It has Been Blowing Up in the Face of Most of the MidEast for Generations now.
To Date, The, Same Families, Fighting The Same Battle over the Same Piece of Ground,
For Over 4000 years since, Abraham Gave the Birthright Blessing to "The Wrong?" Son?

Therefore, Why, would Anyone Expect This to Be Different in this Contest?
When Good Men Do Nothing, The Evil that Men do, Proliferates, with Abandon.
IE: ACORN, The ACLU and the Rights of the Individual are Stepped on,
and Ground underfoot by the Elite and Effite Members that have Usurped, By PC Etiquit? Or Their “OWN” Bigotry?

The Rights of "WE THE PEOPLE" not Only To Voice our GOD Given Right to Free Speech, But The Expressing of that Right,
And OUR FREE CHOICE TO OPPOSE THEIR AGENDA:
in " OUR" HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES" ?? And That THAT HOUSE,
IS, " NOT" Their House! They Are, Supposed to Represent US!

So Gentlemen and Gentle Ladies, I Suggest,

"The Constitution", as A Second Reading assignment, Along with THE BILL OF RIGHTS.

For My Part, I will Protest, Write, and Picket OUTSIDE THE CONGRESS,
< MEDIA OUTLETS and ANYWHERE, ELSE I CAN>

For: The Constitution, and First Amendment, Second Amendment, 10th Amendment, Etc, Ect..

UNTIL THIS ADMINISTRATION: < HEARS U.S. and LISTENS TO U.S.> And REPRESENTS THE U.S. !!!!!!

TO REP OF (STATE) BOTH HOUSE AND SENATE:
I WISH TO HAVE YOU PRESENT THIS AS A LETTER FROM A CONCERNED CITIZEN, FOR REFORM OF THIS GOVERNMENT TO:
BARNY FRANK AND THE REST OF THIS ADMINISTRATION! IF, THEY THOUGHT “TEA PARTY” WAS A MOVEMENT?
WELL, THEIR TERM LIMIT IS UP IN 2010!
SOONER “ IF” , OF THEIR PROSECUTION AND INDICTMENT BRING CONVICTIONS FOR THIS CONGRESS AND ADMINISTRATION OFFICIALS.

TIME TO SEND A CLEAR MESSAGE TO WASHINGTON!
"WHERE THEIR COLLUSION AND CONSPIRACY", WITH THE ACORN AND THE SEIU UNION ORGANIZATION’S,
ARE CONCERNED, WITH THE TACIT APPROVAL OF, THE OBAMA CAMPAIGN AND DEMOCRATIC PARTY?

THAT IS WHAT, IS ACTIONABLE IN OVER 14 STATES NOW THAT ARE PROSECUTING THEM.

A VOTER RIGHTS AMENDMENT IS NEEDED.
NOT “JUST” FOR THE ABSENTEE BALLOTS OF WHICH 1/4 OF WHICH WE ARE NOW AWARE WERE NOT COUNTED.
AND NOT JUST FOR THE MILITARY! TIME TO END THE FUNDING FOR VOTER FRAUD!

SEND A BILL TO THE CONGRESS AND THE SENATE FOR VOTER REFORM NOW!

HOLD ALL THESE "SERVANTS OF THEMSELVES" ACCOUNTABLE!

MORE STATES ARE COMING TO THEIR SENSES, AND REAFFIRMING THE TENTH AMENDMENT!
REMIND PALOSIE AND OBAMA, THAT "THE AMERICAN PEOPLE", THEY DO NOT WORK FOR THE FEDERAL GOV'T!

IT IS TIME TO CALL FOR THE RESIGNATION AND IMPEACHMENT OF THESE INDIVIDUALS IN OFFICE.

“IF” THEY HAVE ANY WRONGDOING, IE: "MALFEASANCE" IN OFFICE, THEY ARE ACCOUNTABLE!

THE FEDERAL GOV'T WORKS, FOR THE STATES! AND THE PEOPLE!
AND THAT THEY, ARE ACCOUNTABLE TO THE "PEOPLE!"
"NOT" THE OTHER WAY AROUND!

"WE THE PEOPLE" NEED TO TAKE BACK THE AUTHORITY, WE DELEGATE.

THERE WILL BE AN ACCOUNTING,AND THAT DAY WILL BE ELECTIONS, IN 2010, THEN AGAIN IN 2012.

TAKE HEART AND REMEMBER, YOUR VOTE, COUNTS, NO MATER WHAT ACORN, AND SEIU TRY TO DO.
THEY WILL "NOT" PREVAIL.
"WE THE PEOPLE" WILL HOLD THEM ACCOUNTABLE.
WRITE AND PROTEST, AND PICKET OUTSIDE THEIR OFFICES, IN YOUR HOME STATE.
JUST LIKE THE TEA PARTIES, YOUR VOICE DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
I THINK THEY HEAR U.S. LOUD AND CLEAR!
NOW GET OUT THERE AND MAKE "YOU" YOUR VOICE LOUD AND PROUD TO BE AN "AMERICAN" WITH "AMERICAN VALUES"
AND KEEP YOUR INDIVIDUAL, RIGHTS AND DIGNITY INTACT!
ACT! NOW!
LIKE YOU KNOW IN YOUR HEART, IS THE RIGHT THING TO DO!

WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE TO TELL YOUR CHILDREN, IF YOU WON'T STAND UP FOR THEM?
YOU ARE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE UN?

"HE11, NO! WE WON'T" GO! AND WE ARE STAYING THE COURSE!

IMPEACH THEM NOW!

THEN, PROSECUTE THEM TO THE FULLEST EXTENT OF THE LAW, IN ALL FIFTY STATES!
TIME FOR “ALL” OF U.S. - TO TAKE A STAND!
CONTACT YOUR CONGRESSMAN, AND STATES REPRESENTATIVE.

THEN, MAKE THE CASE FOR STATES RIGHTS AND VOTER REFORM, FOR THE SAKE OF THIS NATION!

TELL THE WANT TO CONTROL, GOV'T, "WE THE PEOPLE" HAVE CONTROL! AND IMPEACH THOSE;
WHO DO NOT FOLLOW THE LETTER AS WELL AS THE SPIRIT OF THE CONSTITUTION, AND OATH THEY SWORE TO UPHOLD!

THEN IMPEACH THOSE THAT PLAY FAST AND SHADY WITH THE "LETTER" OF THE LAW,
AND ENFORCE THE LAWS WE DO HAVE FOR ANTI-CORRUPTION, MALFEASANCE AND WRONGDOING OF OUR PUBLIC OFFICIALS!

THEN PROSECUTE THEM "ALL" IN "ALL" FIFTY STATE JURISDICTIONS!

AND LET THEM KNOW THAT "WE THE PEOPLE" ARE THE GOV'T THEY SHOULD FEAR!

NOT THE LAWYERS FOR ACLU!
AND BOUNCE OBAMA AND FRANK, PALOSIE, RIED, DODD, RANGEL AND THE REST OUT ON THEIR EAR AND REAR!

2010! NEVER AGAIN! 2012! WITH RESOLVE!
OUR, PROBLEM?

SOLVED!

MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA and MAY GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS in HARMS WAY!

KERRY MARVIN, PENSACOLA, FLA
