Where Is The Change In Clinton Part II?
Nov 19, 2008 Political
Barack Obama ran a two year campaign for the presidency with a chant of hope and change and a claim that he is a Washington outsider and that he will change the way things are done. Change is on the way, he has chanted for the past two years. He lamented about the way business is done in DC and how he will change all that. No more business a usual. A lot of people bought this load of bunk but just as many voted for him to cleanse their souls of white guilt or because he is black. In any event, how much change is this so called “outsider” bringing?
During the primaries Obama said that Joe Biden and Hillary Clinton were part of the problem in DC. They were part of the business as usual network and electing them would bring more of the same. Then, after he won the primary, Obama picked Biden to be his Vice President. Biden has been in the Senate nearly as long as Obama has been alive and yet this is the best Obama could come up with for “change.”
Now that he has won the presidency, he is looking to make Hillary Clinton the Secretary of State. If the reason we needed to vote for him was because Biden and Clinton were part of the problem, how does putting them in these positions actually result in any “change?”
Obama’s cabinet will look like Clinton redux. He has selected Eric Holder to be the Attorney General. Holder is a “veteran” DC lawyer and served as Deputy AG in the Clinton administration. How exactly is it change to put a DC insider and past Clinton crony in this position?
As Obama gets deeper and deeper into the process of vetting people to serve in his administration a large number of seasoned political insiders and people who served under Clinton are being mentioned. It looks like Obama will have very few outsiders (if any) in his administration of change. Tell me again how change is on the way…
After selecting so many Clinton retreads for his administration the only thing Obama will have to do is bring Monica Lewinsky on as an intern.
Guess that can’t happen. She blew any chance she had at getting back in the White House. Too bad. He might have liked having her on his staff.

Obama, Misogyny Be Thy Name
Oct 31, 2008 Political
It is not hard to understand why Barack Obama has an issue with women and why he has a hatred toward the ones who make something of themselves. As a child, Barry was abandoned by his mother who went out in pursuit of her life and left him with his grandmother. His grandmother is a typical white person who, according to his book, Obama became upset with because she expressed concern over a black man that tried to mug her. She must be a racist.
Given that the one woman who should have been the biggest influence in his life, his mother, abandoned him, it is not hard to see why Barack Obama hates women.
In the primary contest his campaign was dismissive of Hillary Clinton and she was treated as a second class citizen who, despite having a lot more experience than he, was not worthy of the presidency. Barack Obama was the preordained messiah of the DNC and they, along with his campaign, treated her very badly. Many of the women who supported her resent the way that she was treated and they have vowed to vote for John McCain. Hillary has told her supporters to get behind Barack but in her heart, she wants him to lose so she can run again in 2012.
Well Hillary is just a politician and is fair game. OK, what about the female reporter he called sweetie? What was she? I think she was a professional trying to do a job but Obama did not see her that way. It is a sure bet he would not have said such a thing to a male reporter. In other words, Obama does not think women are equal to men in the workplace.
Sarah Palin, another strong woman, entered the scene when John McCain selected her to be his running mate. The Obama campaign and its surrogates in the media brutalized Palin and her family. She was treated horribly and people criticized her for not aborting her last child who she knew had Down Syndrome. It is amazing to me that the very people who scream about a woman’s choice would criticize her for choosing life. If a woman has a right to choose then it means she has a right to make either choice. The way Palin was treated was nothing more than an extension of how Obama treats women in general. He certainly could not be as brutal to Hillary because he would need her support when he won but there is no way he will ever get Palin’s support and she is out to beat him.
The latest Obama ad is dismissive of Sarah Palin.
Obama approved this message….
This ad has caused a stir among people, especially women, from all parties. The end has Palin speaking but you can’t hear the words and then it shows her winking. This is very symbolic and it shows that Obama feels that a woman’s voice should not be heard. The wink shows that Obama believes women should not be taken seriously. More specifically, Obama is showing that he thinks Palin should not be given any kind of serious consideration because, according to him, she is not serious.
Look at the ad. It says that John McCain said he might have to rely on his VP for economic advice and then it shows Palin. Obama is giving us the message that John McCain picked a woman to handle the economy and we know they can’t do it. We need a man to figure out tough things like a budget.
Never mind the fact that Sarah Palin has more executive experience than Obama and Biden combined. Oh, and did I mention she has managed and balanced a $10 billion a year state budget? Palin has more financial responsibility as Alaska’s governor than Obama and Biden do as 2 members of an elite 100 person social club known as the Senate. She has been a mayor and is a governor and she has balanced budgets. She is the leader of the Alaska National Guard, military oversight neither Obama nor Biden can claim.
But Palin is a woman and therefore she is a second class citizen to Barry. In his mind, Palin, Clinton, and all the other women should know their places. That place, to Obama, is behind the man (two paces perhaps) who should be in charge.
Strong women scare Barack Obama because of a deep rooted hatred he has for the mother that abandoned him. He did not fly off to see her when she was dying. I am surprised he flew off to see granny but perhaps he felt he owed her at least that much. And the fact that the visit would take him to Hawaii where he could convince the people with authority to seal his records was an added bonus.
The Obama ad shows that this candidate is dismissive of women. I hope a lot more people see the criticism of this ad and decide that Obama is not right for America. With his attitude toward women there are other countries to which he would be better suited.
And, his wife would not have to worry about where to shop or what to wear.

I am the Big Dog and I approve this blog post.

Howard Dean Injects Race Once Again
Aug 16, 2008 Political
Barack Obama and his party would have people believe that the Republican party is full of racists and that the Democrats are as pure as the driven snow and as diverse as the United Nations. The reality is that the Democrats have injected race into the quest for the presidency. The Democratic primaries involved only Democrats and race was an issue the entire way. Hillary could not make a statement without the Obama camp shouting racism and every time we turned around people were either not voting for Obama or being accused of not voting for him because he is black.
When Obama became the presumptive nominee the race card was played and it has been ongoing ever since. At first Obama told us that Republicans would try to scare people because he is black and then we had him discussing the fact that he does not look like the other guys on dollar bills. The word has already been put out that anyone who does not vote for the sainted one is a racist.
It is pretty obvious that playing the race card is going to be the tactic used by the Democrats and Howard Dean is following suit. Some time ago Dean remarked how the Republican party was the party of white people while the Democrats were diverse. He has done that again during an interview when he stated:
“If you look at folks of color, even women, they’re more successful in the Democratic party than they are in the white, uh, excuse me, in the [laughs] Republican party.” Breitbart [audio]
I have gone over this before. The majority of blacks in this country are registered as Democrats and 90% of the black voters vote for Democrats. Anyone capable of doing the math can see that there are very few blacks available to run for office as Republicans and those who admit to being Republicans are chastised as Uncle Toms and sell outs. The National Black Republican Association is full of intelligent Conservative Republicans who happen to be black. They are attacked in the media and by the left all the time. Their sole crime is that they are black and Republican. The Democrats don’t like to let the blacks off their plantation (to use their words) and those who choose not to follow the left are attacked for their beliefs.
There are some promising black candidates who are running for office as Republicans and they will certainly do a fine job. Watch and see who attacks them and who injects race into the issue. Here is a hint, it won’t be Republicans. Frances Rice of the NBRA has recounted a nice history to show who will be the attackers. Ms. Rice is brilliant. She is a veteran and we owe her a debt of gratitude for her service to our country.
As for other minorities and women, I think Dean has it wrong. Of course the majority of Mexicans will be looking to the Democrats because the Democrats want to open the borders and allow all the illegals to invade our country. However, there are many who are here legally who do not buy into the open borders philosophy of the left. Women have made great strides in this country and some of them have done well as Republicans. How about our Secretary of State Condi Rice. She happens to be a woman and black. Of course, she was attacked as an Aunt Jemima.
If Dean wants to discuss women perhaps he can discuss how Hillary Clinton was treated by her party. Perhaps he can explain how she was relegated to second class citizen in favor of a new comer who happens to be black. I am no Hillary fan but I can see she and her supporters were treated poorly. She was left out in the cold in favor of Obama, a man who was selected not elected (funny how this is different when it is one of their own).
I believe that minorities would do much better if they embraced the Republican party and espoused conservative values like they did prior to the middle of the last century. They would be welcomed with open arms and given every opportunity to succeed without the chains of government wrapped around their necks. My friends at the NBRA have done quite well and they are not shunned by Republicans because we don’t care about the color of their skin, only the content of their character.
That was the dream of a famous black man, Martin Luther King Jr.
By the way, he was a Republican…

Hill-Rod Wins, Will Fight On
Apr 23, 2008 Political
Hillary Rodham Clinton won the Pennsylvania primary by 10 points in the never ending Democratic battle and has vowed to kep on fighting. She cannot catch Barack Obama but hopes to sway super delegates to vote for her as the best to lead the party. She will contend that she has won the larger states and that she is the best person to beat John McCain in the general election.
Her win in Pennsylvania has the Democratic leaders jittery about the prospect of Obama winning because he outspent her by more than 2 to 1 in an effort to put her away and end this thing. Despite having a great deal of money and a solid lead, Obama was not able to keep Clinton from winning and so the game goes on.
The Democratic leadership and its party members are probably losing sleep now more than ever because Hillary’s win cements, in her mind, that she can win if only her party would listen to (her) reason. She has forced the campaign to continue and again taken away time for the Democrats to attack McCain. The party is in chaos and this is not helping things. The leadership is already worried about a meltdown at the convention and add to that the recent poll that shows neither candidate’s supporters will back the other if that person is the nominee and it spells heartburn at the top.
I am glad that Hillary won but I wish she had won by twice that margin so that it would cast even more doubt within the party. I want Hillary and Barack to fight it out until the bitter end with a Democratic convention filled with anger and fighting. I want rioting in the building and Democrats coming unglued. There needs to be a total breakdown of the Democratic party come convention time so that America can get a good look at how they really are.
The Pennsylvania primary helped bring us one step closer to that outcome.
Hill-Rod is her wrestling name.
How Hillary Will Win
Mar 27, 2008 Satire
It has already started The Clinton is now working to ensure that Hillary will win the nomination by ensuring that the Super Delegates go for her. Those who refuse will meet some unfortunate fate and not be able to cast a vote. Obama Super Delegates will evaporate because they will succumb to the mighty Clinton machine.
It has started already:
Puerto Rican Gov. Anibal Acevedo Vila (D), who is a superdelegate supporting Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) for president, was indicted on 19 counts Thursday stemming from financial dealings in three political campaigns. The Hill
This is just the first of many players. Her team made an example out of the Puerto Rican Governor as a warning to others. The buzz will be loud; Don’t mess with the Clintonistas…
Of course, Governor Spitzer was a Hillary Super Delegate and he went down (pun intended) in flames. Well, the Obama camp does have a bunch of former Clintonites working in it.
Beware the reaper.
