Your weekend inspiration:
How many more days until Bush is out of office? As of today, 86 too many. Keep an eye on when perhaps the worst president in modern history finally stops making mincemeat of this great country of ours.
Conservative Punk: Yes, Obama was a socialist New Party member
Why is this important? Because it explains Obama’s choice of friends, including Ayers, and his willingness to misrepresent himself or directly lie about his intentions for this country. WorldNetDaily also has coverage.

Barky is still trying to buy the presidency by spending an obscene $293,00 an hour through the first two weeks of October. It must be awfully frustrating to be spending this kind of money and will not be able to seal the deal. At the very least, wouldn’t you want a president who could actually get something done after spending this much money? Even the new Zogby Sunday poll has Obama and McCain in a statistical dead heat. Over a quarter of a million dollars an hour, and they have the gall to complain about Sarah Palin’s wardrobe.

Tammy:
I am a new listener. Your passion and energy is amazing!! I love the ‘Barky’ nickname! Question. Why has Obama not produced his Birth Certificate? There are so many unanswered questions about this clown that it is terrifying that he may be our next President.

Tammy, thank you for activating your listeners and fans to divest and cancel the NYT. Also, thank you for never linking to that joke of a tabloid. I don’t want them making one cent off of any of us. Let’s have a party when they file for bankruptcy.
Bush, the worst president in recent history? A bit of hyperbole, Tammy? While George Bush has indeed done a good number of things that were far from conservative (he never claimed to be a die-hard conservative, did he?), and while he made mistakes in the administration of a war, a war unlike any ever fought in American history, I suspect that history will think of him very much like Harry Truman, as a man who did his best, and who did was was necessary. Only time will make this obvious.
Bush, the worst? How about Jimmy Carter, who started the ball rolling on a great many of the horrendous problems that Bush had to try to clean up. And if Jimmy isn’t bad enough, we may very well soon have a president what will make us long for the good old days of Jimmy Carter, when American stood strong and our economic engine purred like a Swiss watch by comparison.
Thank you for putting our country first! It’s what used to unite us all.So sad that political power and greed has corrupted so many,that they can’t see the major threats.Sad.
Yeah, Jimmy Carter was much much worse. I’d say Reagan has been the only good president since Carter.
So, what to make of the reports about acrimony and backbiting inside the McCain/Palin campaign? http://tiny.cc/rgDnn
I have never ever ever liked the inconsistency and wimpy lack of cohesiveness of Mc’s campaign. I am amazed that he continues to poll at the numbers he does, against BOs money, with these goofs in charge. I can only imagine how much ahead he would be if he had a competent campaign team. Now they are pissed at Sarah for being a “rogue” – stepping outside their lame “plan” and actually taking the bull by the horns, trying to win this thing. She is the only spark they have and now they are selling her out. Or is she the ‘problem child’ they are trying to paint her as? I wonder what the upshot of this is? Are Schmidt and his loser staff preparing for a loss and hoping to plant all the blame that they deserve squarely on Palin? Or is McCain going to finally do something bold (that he should have done a month ago) and fire these idiots in favor of the Palin style of campaigning? I will vote for him and I do think he would be a fine president, but I am having a hard time feeling inspired by his campaign decisions as we close this thing out.
What do you think is the TOTAL number of INDIVIDUALS who have contributed to the Obama campaign?
Too many people are completely ignorant about this “grassroots” nonsense when it comes to where Obama is getting his campaign money. I’m going to use facts and numbers. I’m sorry, I hope that doesn’t get in the way.
If you want to accurately gauge who is donating to the campaign, start with the following:
A) Look up the number of registered voters in the United States. (140 million in ’06)
B) Look up the percentage registered voters likely to vote (typically 60% in a presidential election year).
C) Take 55% of Group C, which by liberal accounts represents Obama voters (assuming an Obama win)
Let’s stop for a moment here. Do you think people who won’t vote on Nov. 4th will donate to a political campaign? Do you think people who aren’t following the elections but will still show up to vote on Nov. 4th will donate money to a political campaign? Are 2nd graders donating to Obama? Are Republicans or undecideds donating to the Obama campaign? You’re “undecided” about buying a car. Do you put a down payment?
D) Take 60% from Group C, which by liberal methods represents likely donors for Obama after subtracting Obama voters who would never donate money to his campaign
Even by liberal methods, you are left with perhaps 30 million “possible” (not likely, possible) individual Obama donors.
Now the $64,000 dollar question. What percentage of that 30 million is opening their wallets for Obama? 25% 10%? 5% 2%
7.5 million
3 million
1.5 million
0.4 million
2 million Obama supporters donating $50 bucks each could explain the spending for the first half of October. And that’s a stretch. A HALF MONTH OF SPENDING.
WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER 17 AND A HALF MONTHS????
Bush, the worst?! Come on, that’s not like you Tammy! Carter, the president who won’t go away, is the worst–followed by Clinton, as a close second! Remember, 100% Al Qaeda-free since 2001!
What is not being said about the funding and sources is the “in kind” value from the media that chooses to exercise it’s “freedom”.
Along with “spending an obscene $293,00 an hour”, the advocacy of the media grants a 2X force multiplier to funds and then add subsidized ACORN workers.
So being reasonable, let’s consider nearly 600K per hour and then add the total payroll of ACORN; per diem, weekly or annually.
Now how much per hour?
I don’t think Bush is the worst president of all. My choice is Jimmy Carter by a longshot. I am old enough to remember quite well what a disaster he was. America was humiliated for all the world to see with the Iran situation and he did nothing. He made us look so weak and I can’t forgive him for that. At least Bush has kept our country safe and had made the pay for what they did to us on September 11th – at least in part.
By the way, is anyone surprised that the Barkie campaign is denying the allegations about the New Socialist party? They are expert liars.
Does anyone have more info on this New Party stuff? It’s difficult to find more info on the web, and I’m wondering why, in my debates with my “friends” – not that we really should need more proof that Obama is a socialist…but the more info we have, the better. Wanna make sure its not bogus info.
If Bush had a ‘D’ by his name instead of an ‘R’, how many would be sticking up for him right now?
I have to say that Bush is running about even w/ Carter in my book. We don’t have double digit interest rates, inflation or unemployment (not yet, anyway), but we do have a war wherein our soldiers have been subjected to criminal court hearings on the basis of a reporters lie; we have classified information leaking and no accountability; we have two border patrol agents suffering senselessly in federal prisons because Bush does not have the balls to pardon them or confront the vulgar liars in the DOJ responsible for this injustice; we have a border that is wide open for all to see and cross at will; we have rampant corruption because Bush refused to grow a spine in the face of such; we have the largest growth of government occurring in this administration thanks to Bush’s willingness to commit tax dollars to bail out everything and everyone who does not deserve it; we have a war that has kept our troops from fighting forcefully and has allowed our mortal enemies to recapture some areas and boldly show their faces (acknowledging weakness on the part of our leaders); in an effort not to appear anti-Muslim, we have accommodated behavior and activities on the part of Islamic groups in this country instead of holding them accountable; we have also watched this administration fail the American people’s security and health by allowing trade with rogue nations, de-funding the FDA leaving humans and pets in America vulnerable to poisoned goods. Plus, our infrastructure is for crap right now.
People, we may not have been bombed on our soil after 9/11 (and I do thank President Bush for that security), but we are still in the midst of attacks from our enemies. They cheer when we suffer economic hardship. They cry (along with the Dems) that ‘Capitalism is Dead!’ as if it’s a good thing. They are conscious of the fact we are looking for physical attacks on our institutions and land; who would think of our vulnerable economy as warfare? Well, it is. We also could not fathom the thought of commercial planes being used as bombs just 8 years ago, now could we?
I won’t deny Bush was served difficult events and circumstances much of which he inherited; it’s what he has done – or failed to do – since receiving such. Because he was not forceful – especially after 2004 – the climate became ripe wherein a radical from the slime of the Chicago political machine could emerge. What are the chances we would even be dealing with Obama right now if Bush had conducted himself these last 7 years as forcefully as he did in the immediate aftermath of 9/11?
We can acknowledge that Jimmy Carter was a complete failure and invited the terrorism the West faces today. But we must also hold Bush accountable for trying to appease our enemies instead of destroying them as forcefully as our military is capable of doing. And we must also confront the disastrous spending spree he and the Republicans failed to control over 6 years. They lost in 2006 due to Bush’s lack of leadership, and the country is where it is presently in the elections for the same reason.
Therefore, so sum it all up: Tammy is not wrong in her observation AT ALL!
Most of us understand how dangerous ‘hope and change’ will be under Obama (if he wins). But we should also be mindful of how ‘compassionate conservatism’ got us to this point in the first place.
Tammy,
I must take exception to your wording, the worst President, when referring to President Bush. History will judge him as one of the most solid in the fight on the war against Islamofacism. Granted he has not been perfect, Lord, knows I have issues with the President. To say he is one of the worst is wrong. I respectfully disagree, strongly.
In the middle of any war, it is hard to imagine that the choices made were right – especially when the ‘bombs’ are falling. How many despised Churchill during the blitz? MANY. (And I am not saying that Bush is Churchill).
Nine days to go..let’s all take a deep breath.
Bush is not even the worst President in the last 100 years – Jimmy Carter, LBJ, Nixon, – all far worse. Jimmy Carter will always be the worst President evah in my opinion. Bush went wrong in three things
1. spending like a liberal
2. loyalty towards disloyal incompetents – Powell, Rice, Brown, Tenet, McClellan, Gonzales, Miers – you get the drift
3, failure to apply a figurative laxative to the State Department and CIA – to clean out the whole rotten, disloyal agencies.
Also (and I am constantly critical of Bush so do not even think I am a lap dog of his, I also voted for him twice and do not regret it as Gore and Kerry would have been worse) after the first 6 months of a (God forbid) Obamanation – we will wish that G.W. Bush was back in the oval office.
Have you ever seen Bush lose his temper against the obnoxious people in the D.C. press corps or over the personal and immature attacks and slanders he constantly had to endure for 8 years?
Sadly many people believe they are entitled to these vary things mentioned in the World Net Daily article:
“Among the New Party’s stated objectives were “full employment, a shorter work week, and a guaranteed minimum income for all adults; a universal ‘social wage’ to include such basic benefits as health care, child care, vacation time, and lifelong access to education and training; a systematic phase-in of comparable worth and like programs to ensure gender equity.”
The dems/socialists view equality as an end result. The republicans/conservatives view equality as equal opportunity for all. Equality as an end, where everyone is the same, crushes individuality and breeds resentment.
Oops. It should read very not vary.
