Great news at Hotair regarding Melinda (no, this is not politics)
For those of you who read Hotair.com, eD Morrissey posted some good news regarding Melinda (whom you may remember if you read the site developed a MRSA staph infection).
Melinda was moved upstairs from ICU early Thursday afternoon. She is doing well.
Sign to online petition – don’t let Obama spew his rhethoric at Notre Dame
Over 80,000 have already signed the petition in protest of Hussein Obama’s invitation to speak at Notre Dame.
Obama down to 50% approval in Zogby Poll
You can pick and choose which poll you want to believe (if you want to believe in any at all). Rassmussen has Hussein Obama at 56%, Pew/NPR show his support at 59%, while liberal biased polls such as CBS and CNN have him in the 60%s. The latest Gallup poll has him at 65%.
Regardless if you are an Obama Bot or not, his poll numbers have dropped off with his far left agenda since taking office just over 2 months, unless you want to cling to the liberal biased CNN and CBS polls. Of course, one may want to call Zogby a right wing biased poll since its so far to the right of the others. Regardless, The Boston Herald covers the details offered by the pollster:
Pollster John Zogby said his poll out today will show Americans split on the president’s performance. He said the score factors out to “about 50-50.”
Some polls show Obama coasting with a 65 percent job approval, but not in Zogby’s tally.
“The numbers are going down,” Zogby told the Herald. “It’s not because of the gaffes, but a combination of high expectations and that things aren’t moving fast enough with the economy.”
Mark Levin’s Liberty and Tyranny #1 on Amazon.com <– READ IT
Michelle Malkin has been reading Mark Levin’s Liberty and Tyranny — and says you should be, too. It’s now #1 on Amazon.com for a reason. Mark Levin unlike the the loser RINOs in DC nowadays has written a stalwart conservative manifesto written by a conservative who doesn’t want to re-brand and repackage conservatism into liberalism. He draws on founding principles, not polls, to lay out the agenda for the Right — and to illuminate the fatal flaws of statism.
No Youtube for you China (again)
China has apparently blocked the YouTube video-sharing website because it had videos showing soldiers beating monks and other Tibetans. A Chinese government spokesman would not confirm whether YouTube had indeed been blocked. China has a history of blocking websites which carry messages it views as politically unacceptable. I wonder how long before the US decides to block Fox News, and other conservative websites?
Don’t forget to turn your lights out this weekend!
Didn’t you know? Its “Earth Hour” this weekend! Even some in Borat’s homeland of Kazaksthan will be celebrating! This coming weekend, the enviro-wackos will celebrate “Earth Hour” by turning off their lights. Of course, most of them have had their lights go out many moons ago if you know what I mean.
Glenn Beck is Howard Beale?
With Glenn Beck’s ratings continuing to soar, left wing nutjobs like Bill Maher continue to trash him. Last Friday (March the 20th), he was number one in all of cable news in the coveted 25-54 age demo, ahead even of Bill O’Reilly. Today on his show, Beck attempting to mock the moonbats, including Keith Olberman, he compared himself to Howard Beale! Hotair has a great idea regarding the time slots on Fox though. How about moving Special Report 5 p.m., Shep to 6, and Beck to 7? With the ratings Beck continues to get, its a crime that he isn’t in prime time. How about just doing away with that turd Shep altogether?
Hetrophobe Barney Frank calls Justice Scalia a homophobe
Shhhhhh, be vewwy vewwy qwiet. Bawney Fwank is hunting wepubwicans. huhuhuhuhuhuhuh.
According to The Hill, Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.) called Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia a “homophobe” Friday for opposing gay rights.
“I do think that this argument that it’s unconstitutional for the federal government to pick and choose which marriages it will recognize is a good one,” Frank said Friday in an interview with a gay news website, 365gay.com.
“At some point it’s going to have to go to the United States Supreme Court,” he continued. “I wouldn’t want it to go to the United States Supreme Court now because that homophobe Antonin Scalia has too many votes on this court.”
Arnold’s solution to fix California’s economic problems: ban plasma TVs!
With California’s unemployment rate in double digits for the first time since the early 1980s, Arnold and the rest of the loons in the state have a solution to the problem! Ban those EVIL big bad plasma TVs! They want to ban plasma TVs because they’re not green enough! I got a 24″ monitor for my computer, will they come for that too?
The RICHhunt
Just in case people didn’t figure out what the end result of all this faux outrage over AIG bonuses would be, New York Magazine reports on the latest in liberal-populist tourism. Community organizers for Connecticut Working Families Party want to send busloads of outrageously outraged people to the doorsteps of AIG executives’ homes … and claim that they don’t want to put them at risk. Riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight:
The Connecticut Working Families Party this weekend has organized a bus store that will make stops at Wilton, Connecticut, AIG office as well as the security-patrolled homes of AIG execs who are fearing for their lives.
“We’re going to be peaceful and lawful in everything we do,” said Jon Green, the director of Connecticut Working Families. “I know there’s a lot of anger and a lot of rage about what’s happened. We’re not looking to foment that unnecessarily, but what we want to do is give folks in Bridgeport and Hartford and other parts of Connecticut who are struggling and losing their homes and their jobs and their health insurance an opportunity to see what kinds of lifestyle billions of dollars in credit-default swaps can buy.”
Right, they’re not fomenting rage, they’re just encouraging it. So if you happen to record someone’s address so you can return in the dead of night, it’s not like Working Families told you to! We know we sound paranoid and we really can’t believe we’re actually on the same side as Rush, but this is getting way out of hand. Oh, to have fat ladies in high heels clogging up the West Village again.
Cap and trade goes byebye?
Since like Hussein Obama wouldn’t get everything he wanted according to Hotair. George Stephanopolous reported yesterday that Senate Democrats forced Barack Obama to choose between two break-the-bank policies for this year. Hussein Obama apparently ‘traded’ the cap-and-trade in order to get started on a massive overhaul of the nation’s health-care delivery system. Stephanopolous calls this a “scorpion in the bottle” problem:
When the White House released its budget, I said the president’s effort to reform health care and cap carbon emissions were “scorpions in a bottle” — only one could make it through Congress this year.
This week, the White House and House Democrats made their choice: health care is the survivor.
As the Wall Street Journal and Washington Post have reported, House Democrats (backed by the White House) plan to write a budget resolution that allows health care to be passed by a simple majority (through the so-called “reconciliation” process) if a bipartisan compromise isn’t reached by September.
Cap and trade will not get the same budget protection, and there are nowhere near 60 votes for it. Keeping it out of the reconciliation process recognizes reality: Congress can’t pass it in the middle of a recession.
Obama now kissing up to Iran!
According to FoxNews, Obama sent a video message to Iran on Friday, Obama says the U.S. wants to ‘engage’ with the nation and end decades of strained relations, but not unless their officials stop making threats. No word yet if the video message contained any Special Olympics jokes. I’m sure AJAD will be really impressed too.

You can no longer call terrorists, terrorists, you can’t use the term War on Terror, but Obama calls AIG Suicide Bombers?
Remember when Hussein Obama decided to give $900 million to Palestine to help them “rebuild“? The land of suicide bombers? You know we can’t use the terms terrorist or War on Terror? Well, our Messiah has no problem calling AIG basically suicide bombers:
But today, President Obama took that rhetoric in a different direction. He actually upped the ante explaining that AIG is like a suicide bomber.
“We had to step in, it was the right thing to do, even though it is infuriating,” Obama said, explaining why the government needed to bail out the troubled banks.
“The same is true with AIG,” he said. “It was the right thing to do to step in. Here’s the problem. It’s almost like they’ve got — they’ve got a bomb strapped to them and they’ve got their hand on the trigger. You don’t want them to blow up. But you’ve got to kind of talk them, ease that finger off the trigger.”
Meet Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty – the latest RINO
According to Michelle Malkin and Minnesota Public Radio:
State officials say Minnesota is working on a pilot program to test the idea of charging drivers for each mile they drive. Other states around the country are considering a vehicle mileage tax, as revenues from the gas tax are expected to decline.
St. Paul, Minn. — The cost of each gallon of gas includes 18.4 cents to fund federal highway programs, and another 25.5 cents for roads in Minnesota.
But as cars and trucks get better mileage, the gas tax isn’t keeping pace with the need for roads and road work. So another option is gaining traction in Minnesota — a high-tech mileage-based user fee.
“We realize that in the future, cars aren’t going to be powered by fuel, probably,” said Gov. Tim Pawlenty, who signed into law $5 million for the current biennium to study the mileage tax.
Pawlenty said the state is now working on a pilot program to try it out, with an eye toward cars that aren’t even on the road yet…
…The idea is still in the planning stages for now, but the state Department of Transportation will likely ask for proposals on the technology this summer. Satellite technology and computers could turn literally turn every vehicle in Minnesota into a smart car.
The Political Circus continues – House to vote on 90% tax bill for bailout bonuses
Who needs Ringling Brothers when you have the clowns on Capital Hill? Never mind the fact that Chris Dodd crook is the one who put this not so little loophole into the original bill to begin with, never mind the fact that the clueless idiots in the White House, or Tax Cheat Geithner knew about these bonuses already and didn’t do a thing about it, but what about the legal ramifications? Oh BTW, did you know that the clowns in DC can also perform magic tricks? While everyone was focused on the AIG bonus rage, and the Banking Queen’s talking/spitting, did you know that the Federal Reserve announced that it would pump an extra $1 trillion into the financial system by purchasing Treasury bonds and mortgage securities?
Defense Secretary Robert Gates gets ready for big cuts
From the Boston Globe:
Two defense officials who were not authorized to speak publicly said Gates will announce up to a half-dozen major weapons cancellations later this month. Candidates include a new Navy destroyer, the Air Force’s F-22 fighter jet, and Army ground-combat vehicles, the officials said.
A perfect example of how too much pot rots your brain: coffee brewer and crackpot Bob Alexander
Loony Toons news from the Seattle Times:
Of all the people who read Charles Manson prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi’s best-selling “The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder,” this 57-year-old Seattle coffee merchant is the only one jolted to act on it in a substantial way. The SuperBeans proprietor has become a super-activist.
With the help of a handful of volunteers and donations, Alexander has sent 2,200 copies of Bugliosi’s hardcover to prosecutors around the country.
Now he and his volunteers are following up with each one of them by phone and e-mail, as well as gathering signatures for petitions urging the prosecutors to indict the former president.
Two other things Alexander hears: that he’s courageous and principle-driven, and that he’s an obsessed crackpot.
Another big party planned at the White House – for St. Patrick’s day.
Hussein Obama and the “Sleeveless One” continue to party it up at the White House. A White House aide tells POLITICO44 that Obama (O’Bama?) will be hosting a big St. Patrick’s day bash at the White House …
… Tuesday night. On the guest list: Irish American lawmakers and other Irish Americans.
Glenn Beck gets *HUGE* ratings for Friday the 13th show
Was that Glenn Beck last Friday or Bill Oreilly? With the numbers that Beck got on Friday, its hard to tell, with both having similar totals in viewship, while the other liberal networks like CNN, CNN HN and MSNBC continue to struggle for viewers.


Chris Dodd - Mortgage Fraud / AIG
