David Axelrod’s Pattern of Sexual Misbehavior
by Ann Coulter
11/09/2011

*** begin quote ***

Meanwhile, as extensively detailed in my book Guilty: Liberal ‘Victims’ and Their Assault on America, the only reason Obama became a U.S. senator — allowing him to run for president — is that David Axelrod pulled sealed divorce records out of a hat, first, against Obama’s Democratic primary opponent, and then against Obama’s Republican opponent.

Axelrod’s fingerprints are all over the Cain attack.

POLITICAL: Ron Paul SHOULD debate sock puppets

It Was a Strange Saturday
by Butler Shaffer

*** begin quote ***

Hours later, and on another channel, I watched Ron Paul engage in a one-man debate with seven life-sized sock puppets. The seven are auditioning to play the lead in a modernly-defined tragedy: to be the President of the United States. They recite their lines with nary a break in content or meter – except for Rick Perry, who was unable to remember his – hoping that the show’s producers will find their responses suitable to the boobeoisie who fill audience seats. It is just like taking a show on the road to New Haven or Baltimore before letting it open on Broadway! Ron, on the other hand – when allowed to speak at all – addresses not the show’s owners, but those outside the theater.

*** end quote ***

I think you may have hit on an excellent idea.

Ron Paul SHOULD debate sock puppets with distribution on You Tube and Facebook. I think it could be a “real page turner”.

I’d take a clip of his opponent from a debate or a speech, and then have Ron give his response. He’d have the benefit of no time limit and he could carefully tighten his response. Shorter would be better.

imho

I’m a techie but not an AV type. I’d be happy to help.

I’d suggest that quick like a bunny, there needs to be eight quick hitters.

(1) Michele Bachmann — On why “pro-life” isn’t a Federal issue.

(2) Herman Cain — Obviously debate the FED

(3) Newt Gingrich — Global warming and the couch with Nancy

(4) Jon Huntsman —China and the need for trade without “Fair Trade” treaties. And, not to threaten them.

(5) Gary Johnson — The “(pseudo) War on (some) Drugs” and exactly how to do it. I think Ron would say let a regulated marketplace whereas GJ would say wide-open.

(6) Rick Perry — About Gardisol and drug regulation, why should the FDA exist. And a swipe at him being a democrat.

(7) Mitt Romney — Romneycare and Obamacare! With a swipe at Northeaster liberal Rockefeller Republican.

(8) Rick Santorum — Marriage, from gay marriage to bestiality and pedophilia to hetro, is not the business of the State. The DOM act is just bad legislation.

I can probably get my niece-in-law to make the sock puppets.

:-)

RANT: $100 million pension for stapling a finger?

$100 million pension for stapling a finger?
Cop seeks sweet disability after accidental shooting
Posted: November 15, 2011

*** begin quote ***

As he was preparing to shoot, a burst of wind tore a Q-shaped target from its wooden post. Onesti picked up a staple gun and tried to reattach the target — and what happened next could end up costing state taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Onesti, 27 at the time, accidentally fired a staple into the base of his left ring finger, records show. He put a Band Aid on the wound and successfully completed the tests. But after two operations Onesti says he still can’t do his job, and is now one of a record number of public employees across the state seeking an accidental disability pension for life.

POLITICAL: Obamacare is coming

Stryker to cut 5% of workforce
Nov. 11, 2011
FREE PRESS NEWS SERVICES
Michigan Business

*** begin quote ***

Stryker, the Kalamazoo-based maker of artificial hips and knees, will cut 5% of its global workforce by the end of next year to reduce costs in the face of new fees on device makers required by the U.S. health care law.

*** end quote ***

And, I’ll bet it’s not just the new fee that’s scaring them into layoffs.

I’ll guess that with Obamacare, employees will get new “rights” and become more expensive.

Add to that, they probably figure Medicare will be paying for fewer artificial anythings as well as paying less.

Seems prudent to me.

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Redefining “poverty”

Wednesday, November 16, 2011

FROM DOCUTICKER EMAIL, A BRIT RESEARCH GROUP

“The U.S. Census Bureau and Bureau of Labor Statistics lay the groundwork for a new quantitative measure of poverty to replace the current, inadequate official measure – an improvement that will only be possible with proper funding. (Current official measures are described by the Census Bureau and the Department of Health and Human Services.)”

The Research Supplemental Poverty Measure: 2010

Posted to the DocuBase on 7 November, 2011 at

http://web.docuticker.com/go/docubase/65475

Source: U.S. Census Bureau

From the media tip sheet:

The Census Bureau, with assistance from the Bureau of Labor Statistics and in consultation with other appropriate agencies and outside experts, introduces a new measure of poverty to complement the official measure, which has been in use since the 1960s. The official measure will continue to be produced every year and be used to assess eligibility for government programs and determine funding distribution… »

Penn State Games Lose Sponsorship Deals
BY SUZANNE VRANICA

*** begin quote ***

About a half-dozen advertisers have pulled commercials from ESPN’s broadcasts of coming Pennsylvania State University football games, a person familiar with the matter said, a sign that the scandal at Penn State is causing fallout among marketers.

*** end quote ***

Good!

Bout time someone came to their senses.

Hit them where they will really pay attention, their pockets.

I won’t be watching any Penn State sports and, any of their sponsors that come to my attention, I’ll skip. Even if it’s a beloved product, I’ll switch.

Maybe that will get their attention?

“For example, Jon Bon Jovi paid property taxes of only $100 last year on his extensive real estate holdings in New Jersey that he uses to raise bees. At the same time, Bruce Springsteen received farm subsidies because he leases his property to an organic farmer,” the report explains.

Time to end ALL subsidies!

TINFOILHAT: OBL’s killing; what’s the true story?

Correcting the ‘fairy tale’: A SEAL’s account of how Osama bin Laden really died
Published: 12:42 AM 11/07/2011 | Updated: 8:31 PM 11/07/2011
By Vince Coglianese

*** begin quote ***

Forget whatever you think you know about the night Osama bin Laden was killed. According to a former Navy SEAL who claims to have the inside track, the mangled tales told of that historic night have only now been corrected.

“It became obvious in the weeks evolving after the mission that the story that was getting put out there was not only untrue, but it was a really ugly farce of what did happen,” said Chuck Pfarrer, author of Seal Target Geronimo: The Inside Story of the Mission to Kill Osama Bin Laden.

In an extensive interview with The Daily Caller, Pfarrer gave a detailed account of why he believes the record needed to be corrected, and why he set out to share the personal stories of the warriors who penetrated bin Laden’s long-secret compound in Abbottabad, Pakistan.

In August the New Yorker delivered a riveting blow-by-blow of the SEALs’ May 1, 2011 raid on bin Laden’s hideaway. In that account, later reported to lack contributions from the SEALs involved, readers are taken through a mission that began with a top-secret helicopter crashing and led to a bottom-up assault of the Abbottabad compound.

*** end quote ***

There has to be falsifications here.

(1) Why not take him and sweat him? Unless 9/11 wasn’t his?

(2) Killing folks is illegal isn’t it?

(3) Pakistan is a sovereign country.

(4) Why pass up the intelligence?

(5) Why the fairy tale of the funeral at sea with observance of Muslim customs?

(6) If this was “crime” problem as BHO44 campaigned on, then why a military solution?

POLITICAL: top 1% pay 40% and bottom ½ pay nothing

The Equality Racket
by Patrick J. Buchanan

*** begin quote ***

What action? The rich must pay “their fair share.” Though the top 1 percent pay 40 percent of federal income taxes and the bottom 50 percent have, in some years, paid nothing, the rich must be made to pay more.

That’s an appealing argument to many, but one that would have horrified our founding fathers. For from the beginning, America was never about equality, except of God-given and constitutional rights.

Our revolution was about liberty; it was about freedom.

*** end quote ***

Too many folks idle in the boats and too few rowers.

Too many entitlements; too much welfare; too much crony corporatism; too much “incest”.

Too, too much of all the bad stuff that comes with Gooferment.

And it all comes down to the root causes:

(1) Yielding to the gang called Gooferment the illusion that it’s allowed to initiate force against peaceful people.

(2) Permitting that gang to redefine “money” from gold to paper. That results in unchecked taxation (i.e., inflation).

(3) Allowing them to create the Prussian model Gooferment Skrules to brainwash and dumb down posterity.
