“State Board Dismisses Palin Ethics Complaint”

I especially love this part,“McLeod said Wednesday that it’s troubling that Geraghty on May 14 requested she stop amending her complaint so that he could finish his work.

“When an attorney wants less information rather than more information during his investigation—that’s a sure tell-tale sign that they’ve already made up their minds to dismiss a complaint,” she said.”, that right there is sweet!

You don’t keep amending a complaint to get a positive outcome from your charges, you do so in order to drag the proceedings out for as long as possible. To be a “Nuisance”.

The political left in America, at all levels, has this tactic down to a fine art. And just wait to see the screeching&wailing about Palin using her flunkys to quash this.

And then for all the Democrats on the State Personnel Board to be eviscerated for their heinous complicity in Palin’s criminal conspiracy.

h/t FOXNews and AP.

Although, AP cut it awfully short!

“Al Ahram, Egypt

A Catastrophe, by Any Measure”

Amazing, the people in the region can see clearly, why is our government unable to see at all?

“Apparently, Pakistani governmental concessions to the Taliban have been interpreted as weakness, leading to more daring on the part of the armed movement. The Taliban now appears encouraged to increase its numbers, with the result that hundreds of gunmen now wander the streets of major cities, wreaking havoc by closing courts, girls’ schools and barbershops, and killing their opponents.”

Giving any concessions to terrorists equals surrendering to terrorists.

“There is nothing obviously effective to be said or done by Obama during the summit scheduled to be held within the next few days in Washington, with his Pakistani counterpart, Asif Ali Zardari, and Afghani President Hamid Karzai. Will he encourage them to engage in dialog with the Taliban? Can they be threatened with the withholding of financial aid, unless they fight militants? Or can Obama promise to increase financial aid, in spite of the deterioration in security? To what extent can evil remain in a country armed with 100 nuclear bombs? Will this not threaten the world’s security and stability?”

Direct, clear insight from Al Ahram and the good folks at Watching America

Leftards, from that bastion of rightwing hate-agitaprop, the BBC. And for those too lazy to follow links,“US ex-soldier guilty of Iraq rape”

  “A jury in the US state of Kentucky has found a former private soldier guilty of the rape of a 14-year-old Iraqi girl and the killing of her and her family.

  Steven Green, 24, faces a possible death sentence for his crimes.”

So, to summarize, in the police and military forces which the Democrat Party and other leftards suppor,t this asshole, and his “comrades”, would have received promotions and praise. In the military and police of the United States of America they receive prison terms.

And if you leftarded morons would shut the fuck up and sit the fuck down we could hang them and end any possibility that they would ever repeat this shit against anyone, ever.

Life is funny, so often things turn out to not be what they appear to be. Take our newest dog, Pogo.

Her mother is a beautiful pitbull, chest wide as a 5gallon bucket, head big as a soccerball, brindle with white highlights. So, when we picked this puppy,” />  we never expected her to turn into a Dalmation!

Folks, this life lesson needs to be applied to our current political situation. Far too many of the people holding elected office in America are not what they appear to be. They have very carefully crafted camouflage for their true intentions. They oh, so easily assume the nature of chameleons, deftly lying and distorting what American citizens can learn about them.

Time to rip the curtains down, time to see the reality that is being so carefully hidden from American citizens.

OK, the images did not work. Oh well, its Monday!

Piece by Piece tHugo has stolen the property of the people of Venezuela. In broad daylight and proudly,“Announcing the move to send troops to the rice plants in a televised address to the nation on Saturday, Mr Chavez criticised the producers for failing to sell their rice at government prices.

“I have ordered the immediate intervention in all those sectors of agro-industry, intervention by the revolutionary government,” he said.” all said with a big grin.

And at the end, the real reason,“In Venezuela, the government provides basic foodstuffs at low prices in state-run markets known as “mercales”.

But many rice, wheat, meat and dairy producers complain that the price regulations leave them without a profit and that many are facing bankruptcy, our correspondent says.”

tHugo has loudly proclaimed for 20 years that he would destroy individual freedom in Venezuela. By controlling who gets food&water and who does not is the weapon he is using to kill Venezuela.

Regular eggs ‘no harm to health’

  Well, well. Another lie exposed, one perpetrated by the Surgeon General and CDC since the early 1970s. Lets us look a bit deeper, shall we?

“There is cholesterol present in eggs but this does not usually make a great contribution to your level of blood cholesterol.”  But, but, but, the government says eggs are BAD. The government wouldn’t lie!

“The ingrained misconception linking egg consumption to high blood cholesterol and heart disease must be corrected.”

  Now, who began this “misconception”? Who was the primary source of this lie? Researchers funded by the USG, thats who. The government paid for it, and they got exactly what they told the “researchers” they wanted. And they got it in spades. When government pays for research, you give it the results it tells you to, or you don’t get anymore government money.

And these are the same people who have been lying about the “environment”, who continually screech that man is destroying the world.

And now, with the “stimulus” bill, they are taking control of your healthcare. Government will decide what treatment and pharmaceuticals you receive, not your doctor. Government says it will ration healthcare to senior citizens. You will simply have to accept that you are going to die, because the “State” will decide when your “usefulness” is at an end and you no longer deserve healthcare.

  And spare us your screeching&caterwauling, leftards, read Tom Daschle’s book on modern healthcare “reform”. That is what you are going to get.

  And one last nugget from “government”,“In 2007 the Egg Information Service was banned from re-running a television commercial from the 1950s which urged viewers to “go to work on an egg” to celebrate its 50th anniversary.

  The Broadcast Advertising Clearance Centre said the slogan went against the principle of eating a varied diet.”  Not only lying about the health effects of eggs, they cover their lie with a further obfuscation. And 48% of Americans want scumbags like these cousins of ours to run their healthcare. What a bunch of morons.

Here is a sweet little diddy that slipped out during the weekend.

“Washington, Jan 23 - The House Democrats’ trillion dollar spending bill, approved on January 21 by the Appropriations Committee and headed to the House floor next week for a vote, could open billions of taxpayer dollars to left-wing groups like the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN).”

Wow, Holy Payback, Ratman! Is this just too cool, Hopey Changemas, everybody.

Be sure to pass this around.

h/t John Boehner.

Leftards are already struggling valiantly to prove this is a bad thing.

“BAGHDAD — For nearly six years, the Green Zone has become such an enduring shorthand for a willfully sequestered occupation of Iraq that it is easy to forget it is an actual place.”

This from the news paper of record that has been demanding that Coalition Forces remove themselves from towns and cities throughout Iraq. That has repeatedly screeched for Iraqis to take back their country and stand on their on two feet.

And in a, somewhat, related vein,“BAGHDAD — Iraq announced on Wednesday that it would begin a second round of bids to license international oil companies to develop 11 oil and gas fields or groups of fields.”.  I thought Cimpy McHitlerburton and his evil henchmen had already stolen all of Iraq’s oil and gas?

“Iraq to Open More Oil Fields to Bidding”, guess certain people were lying.

Read all of it, and note how he had to pile the doom&gloom onto the end of the article.

h/t NYT

I read of these Marines’ actions back in May, and now I saw this piece from LAT,of all places, in a post over in Ace’s AO.

“Fallen Marines to be awarded Navy Cross”

A cherry and a shorttimer. Men and Marines to the end.
A fitting counter point to one of the lying, anti-American trolls who has been spreading its vitriol in threads here of late.

Semper Fidelis. Rest in peace, Brothers.

From our cousins across the pond,“Cholera deaths soar in Zimbabwe”.

“The suburb of Budiriro in Harare’s capital, has been worst hit by the outbreak, followed by Beitbridge on the border with South Africa.”

Now, why would an easily controlled disease be running rampant in these two locations? Think it has anything to do with them being the main areas of opposition to Pres Bob?

Mugabe has systematically destroyed industry, agriculture and education in Zimbabwe, a country that was a net exporter of food and livestock. It was hailed as the breadbasket of Africa. His administration has driven those who can flee out of Zimbabwe, those who remain are being systematically killed through starvation and disease.

The question is, why? Any ideas, gang?

This should scare the hell out of people.

Here are a couple of choice quotes, “Slowly but surely authorities around the world are turning their attention to online games and virtual worlds and the tax-exempt status of the economic activity taking place within them.”  and “Some wish them well, some wish them ill, but many are just pondering how to go about taxing goods and services that are by their nature immaterial.”

Taxes on transactions of real money through online activities already exist and are being collected. Some of these nimrods are pushing taxes on nonexistent items and currency. 

Go check out Professor Seto’s take on the whole subject. And consider how people who want to increase tax revenue see this.

This ranks right up there with carbon taxes, and it could very possibly net billions of “dollars” that don’t actually exist, further distorting the economies of every country that does it. Much like artificially raising property values.

Have these idiots not learned from the “.com bubble” fiasco at all?

This is the first I have seen of this. Why all the silence from the leftards, hmmm? I am shocked, shocked I say, that Arnie would even mention economic status in vetoing this. The immediate response to such is usually a wavery cry of “Thats why it is so important!!”. And yet, merely a whimper is heard. My, my.

“Solar wind blows at 50-year low”

Interesting headline, to say the least. It gets better,“They expect the reduced output to have effects right across the Solar System.”. Although he makes the obligatory, backhanded pass at how much effect the Sun has on Earth’s climate,“Some researchers have attempted to link the intensity of cosmic rays at Earth to cloudiness and climate change.”, the piece steers well clear of environmental implication.

Artful, indeed.

Gentlemen, Lady, I want to hear your thoughts on this, “Marine Denied Medal of Honor”.

The headline,“D.C. Legislation Would Remove More Gun Limits” seems simple enough. Then you actually read what the DC Council is actually purposing.

“The council proposal does not give residents blanket approval to own semiautomatic pistols, which have become the most popular kinds of handguns. It would ban magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds. It also would repeal a regulation barring a gun owner from registering more than one pistol. In addition, the legislation would do away with the requirement that handgun registrants submit their weapons to D.C. police for ballistics testing.”

The trimming off of a bit of window dressing, and little more.

Lets go back to what AG Nickles had to say in June,“Peter J. Nickles, the city’s acting attorney general, echoed other D.C. officials in June in saying that the District would continue to have tough firearms laws. “We are going to strictly regulate the registration of handguns,” he said at the time. “And there will be no authorization of automatics or semiautomatics.”. It would appear that the Attorney General’s office is in “duck&dodge” mode and will work in secret to keep as many restrictions on the Constitutional Rights of the residents of the District of Columbia as they can.

By all means, please read the whole article,and go back to June and see what the panjandrums of DC had to say about citizens and their rights.
