Here’s What Happened While I was Gone

July 11, 2008

 Well, I am back from vacation and ready to get back into it. I have to confess while I was gone I did keep tabs on the headlines from my Blackberry at night and saved a few articles that I wanted to write about. Most of these are probably old news by now so instead of writing a separate post for each one I thought I would write one post covering all of the stories, with just a little of my own perspective on each one.

 

Jesse Jackson Says He Wants to Cut Off Barack Obama’s Nuts

 This story is probably the one that received the most attention while I was gone (I am guessing, I didn’t watch the news) so I thought I would start with this one.

That was a real nice sentiment from the Reverend, huh?

  The question to me isn’t whether Jesse Jackson was set up or not, the question is, does he really feel that much animosity towards Barack Obama? And why?

 My answer is yes to the first question. He never would have said something like that even in private unless he felt that way. He shouldn’t have said it anyway even if he meant it.

 The answer to the second question is more important. Why does he feel that way? My answer has to be that he doesn’t want Barack Obama to succeed. He and Reverend Sharpton have made their living talking about how America is unfair and racist and now a black man is on the precipice of becoming president. It hurts Jackson and Sharpton if Obama wins the presidency, and he is resentful.

Congress’ Approval Rating Hits Single Digits

 While much has been made about the presidents dismal approval rating congress has fallen to an all time low. Their approval rating is a whopping 9%.

 The interesting part of this poll to me is the fact that Democrats have a higher opinion of congress than do Republicans. It shows me that the discontent for congress has less to do with their failure to stop the war than I would have thought.

 Americans are going to show their displeasure by voting out even more Republicans. That should be interesting.

Barack Obama Raffles off Prizes for Campaign Contributions

 Obama’s campaign may be illegally providing “prizes” in exchange for campaign donations in Minnesota leading to the gambling authority to ask for an investigation.

 I’m sure it is just another “misunderstanding.”

Barbara Boxer Claims the White House is Involved in a Global Warming Cover up

 Readers here know my position on global warming. The only cover up involved in this hoax is a cover up by the alarmists of the facts in order to get the American people to succumb to more taxes and a loss of personal freedoms and choices.

 As you can see the alarmists are becoming more and more adamant, now their is a white house conspiracy to thwart the alarmists conspiracy.

It is enough to drive you insane. Speaking of which:

Global Warming Alarmists Drive Man Insane

 This 17 year old male suffers from a disease now being called Climate Change Delusion. He has been indoctrinated into the belief that we are destroying the planet just by being alive and he is now afraid to even drink water for fear it will kill millions of people.

John McCain Still Sucks

Sorry, no link there. Just wanted to throw that out there.

    To Jessie Jackson….
    You want to de-nut Obama…..Stand in line Hillary gets first shot and can probably give you a load of pointers. She has been de-nuttting Bill’s enemies for years.
    As for why he wants to de-nut Obama, I think it is more like he thinks Obama is getting all the accolades Jackson is due for his years of fightin da man. Jackson thinks Jackson should be the first black president. Obama is a young upstart that has eclipsed Jackson and Sharpton and the rest of the race hustlers.

    Is Jackson kidding me? resentful probably doesn’t even cover it. He might as well just start calling Obama “the man” that’s holding him down. But it was in the news cycle for about 2 days. The other items were there for about 1/2 to 1 day each. There was an “old” skit about McCain on SNL last nite, pretty funny. Hammond has the voice exactly, but they need to put jowls on him.

    I think you missed a few things while away, the McCain Campaign in the person of former Senator Phil Gramm said that Americans have a metal recession and are a bunch of whiners.
