MSM = Misleading Sinister Media

It seems to me that the Democrats and the MSM that favors Obama have
"left the planet". By this I mean the arguments by Obama supporting MSM
for electing Obama and the arguments against McCain-Palin are extremely
irrational and even borderline terrorist-style radicalism. The economic
policies of Obama, if supported by Democrats who may continue to
control Congress, will not spread the wealth around for long because
such policies will completely destroy the ability to make wealth,
because basic economic sciences proves this to be the case.

My prayer is for America, under God, to have "justice for all" but
especially those that are lying in the MSM and out to destroy one of
the best country's on the planet, truly blessed by God. "Dear Lord,
correct the MSM for their lies to hurt America."

Perhaps some in the liberal MSM will "wake up" and report the truth about Obama and friends.

Senator Joe has a good long record of opposing conservative judges.

centrism,” Mark Levin, president of the Landmark Legal Foundation, told

Plagiarist Joe Biden

The main reason that Biden had to drop out of the 1988 persidential election was because he couldn't pronounce, "Ich bin ein Berliner".

Joey

I though Joseph left the '88 race because he stole a speech from a European Socialist.  I think after that he suffered a life-threatening anurism that hasn't been even mentioned by the media this year.  Yet we were subjected to Cheney's prostate exam details.  BTW does anyone know if Obama has ever had a physical?  Has that kid's academic, family or physical records ever been released to the public?

I guess the masses are depending on Michelle's assesment that 'he is one of the smartest people i've ever met'.  Of course these two grew up in one of the most currupt places in America, Southside Chicago, so I would guess that BO is probably the smartest person she has ever met.

 

Ich bin Berliner

I admire JFK. Any dem who could cut taxes and nail Marilyn Monroe in the same short term has my respect.

Nevertheless "Ich bin Ein Berliner" means "I am a doughnut"

JFK's  spech writer should have said "Ich bin Berliner" or "Ich bin aus Berlin."  

Now Reagan of course managed to cut taxes without being unfaithful to his wife and went to Berlin with the right speech:

"Mr Gorbachov tear down this wall!"

Perhaps Reagan's ghost will come back and say:

"Mr. Obama pick on someone your own size and leave Joe the Plumber alone."

RR was good at standing up to socialist bullies!

Ich bin ein Frankfurter

Joe Biden does his best JFK.

Mark my words, you won't understand it at first, But Barack will be tested just like JFK with the Bay of Pigs.

He will send in lipstick support.

Ecclesiastes 10:2 The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left.

Obama has promissed the

Obama has promissed the same healthcare benefits to the unemployed to those of federal employees.  What a slap in the face to people that serve has public servents for very low pay but good benifits.  I guess Obama thinks that federal employee benefits should be given to all people.  What a f'in tool to throw federal employees under that Obama bus so that every piece of shit gets the same benefits has federal employees. 

I guess if it is good enough for millionairs like Obama, Reid, Pelosi, and Kennedy, than I guess it is good enough for the lazy, fat, Oprah watching, children machines that screw more guys in a day than most people do in a lifetime.  These are the Maurey Povich people that go on tv for 3 or 4 times trying to find the father via DNA.

It is a shame that Obama or McCain can't call a whore a whore when they see one.  Some how both these tools see these people as victims. 

 

 

 

 

O'Biden thinks

that everyone has the right to the Senatorial Federal Healthcare plan.  I guess this dumbass doesn't understand that this plan is an employee plan and he thinks that every fat ass Price Is Right watcher should get the same benefits as US Postal workers that work 7 days a week, 24 hours a day 365 days a year. 

There is no way America is so stupid to elect this dumb-ass ignant mofo as a President.  As Bill Clinton said this is a f'n fairy tail.

My dream is a close election

My dream is a close election where the supreme court must vote on an issue that will decide the election. The majority opinion written by one Clarence Thomas. I would just love to see Biden reading that opinion remembering the dishonest bastard he was in Thomas' nomination hearing almost 2 decades ago. It would be nice for the ghosts of Democrat past to return with a fury. How truely poetic that opinion could be. The odds are near zero but 2000 gives me hope. ACORN actually could be the organization that makes it happen.

Sunday, October 13, 1991 Evening Session

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[Statement of Mr. Doggett, management consultant]

MR. DOGGETT:
...I talked to Clarence on a number of occasions, and one of the reasons I came forward is that I remember those conversations, and Clarence told me--and let me tell you, at this time I was a Democrat, at this time I really had some reservations about whether or not the Reagan revolution was good for this country, at this time I was being hammered by Reagonites, because of my attitudes, and when I found out that somebody who had been a classmate of mine who I had assisted at Yale Law School was now in the position of being one of the top-breaking blacks in the Reagan administration, I wanted to go talk to this man and find out what was going on, because I knew he would tell me the truth.

One of the things that Clarence Thomas told me that really stuck in my mind, and one of the reason I said I've got to get this information to this committee and let them decide whether or not it is valuable, is that he said, "John, they call me an Uncle Tom. They are at my back. They are looking for anything they can use to take me out." He was quite aware of the scrutiny that he was under and the fact that his positions were very unpopular...

In all the years that I have known Clarence Thomas, except for knowing that Anita Hill worked for him, he never mentioned her name. We never had any conversations about her. He mentioned the names of a number of friends. At times, it was clear he was very interested in trying to get me to know more black Republican conservatives, hoping to be able to convert me to the cause. He was not successful. But he never mentioned her.

And all the times that I had conversations with Anita Hill on the telephone and in person, that I observed her at parties of black Yale Law School graduates, she never ever talked about Clarence Thomas or talked about any problems or anything about that man.

I did have an experience with Ms. Hill just before she left to go to Oral Roberts University. And but for that experience, I would not be here, because other than that, my experience and relationships with Anita Hill was what I would consider very normal, cordial, and I thought of her as a decent person.

As you know, I submitted an affidavit to you. Ever since this committee released that affidavit to the press, the press has come to me saying would you talk about that affidavit. I said no, I am an attorney, I do not feel that is appropriate for me to discuss anything that is going to be discussed by this committee, before the committee has an opportunity to discuss it with me.

Ted Koppel's office called and said would you be on Nightline? Tom Brokaw's office called. Garick Utley's office called. I even got a call a couple of days ago, saying, well, if you won't talk to us before you testify, will you show up on a Good Morning or Today Show after you testify? I am not going to do that. I am sickened by the fact that the best people, some of the best black people in this country, some of the best people in this country are participating in such a destructive process. But I respect the fact, Senators, that, given the severity of the charges, you had no choice.

Thre are many things that I could say. There are many things that I will say. I stand behind the affidavit that I submitted to you, and I look forward to the time when this body and your colleagues vote on the nomination of Clarence Thomas, and I very much hope that you confirm Clarence Thomas.

But there is one other thing that I want to say, before I wait to respond to your questions. My wife and I--my wife is her behind me--were at a Thai restaurant last night with a friend of ours who had flown in from Africa to do some business with us, and this all blew up in all of our faces. Another one of our friends came up to us and said, "John, I just want to look at somebody who is stupid enough to stand up to the world and say here I am, throw stones at me, throw knives at me, throw rocks at me."

Since you released my affidavit that I submitted to you, the press--I received a number of telephone calls, 40 in two hours, immediately after. Most of them have been positive, but some of them have been negative and some of them have been threatening. One of them was as man who left a message that was very simple, "Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom," click, and he was not imitating the Eveready Rabbits. I am from Texas, now, and those are supposed to be gunshots.

Last night, at that same Thai restaurant, a woman came out, as we were leaving, and said, "Shame, shame, shame, shame." I said, "Excuse me, do you know any of the people involved? Do you know Anita Hill? Do you know Clarence Thomas? Do you know me?" She kept saying, "Shame, shame, shame, shame." I said, "Do you know any of the facts?" And she said, "You know nothing about PMS, and I can't stand any man who says a woman is unstable." I said, "But do you know anything about the facts?" And she said--and I'm sorry I have to say this--she said, "Put your penis back in your pants."

[Laughter.]

This is somebody I had never seen before, somebody I do not know, somebody I hope I will never see again.

But I will tell you, Senators, I am not here for any other reason than to say I had information that I thought would be of use to you. You have decided this information is useful, and when this process is over, except possibly talking to people as I leave this building, I hope to never have to talk about this again...

...MR. DOGGETT: You know, part of what makes this so unpleasant for all of us is that her charges are so clear, explicit, and extreme. I know how difficult it has been for me to even remember what happened back in 1982, so one of the things I did was take some time off from work to look at Anita Hill when she was testifying before this committee, and I will tell you gentlemen, she looked believable to me, even though the words she was saying made absolutely no sense.

I believe that Anita Hill believes what she has said. I believe, and I am saying this under oath, that there is absolutely no truth to what she has said. But I believe that she believes it.

I was impressed with her confidence, her calm, even though the things she was saying in my mind were absolutely, totally beyond the pale of reality.

Clarence Thomas told me in his office that "These people are going to shoot at me. I have a target on my back. It is one of my jobs to make sure that I am not going to be the black in the Reagan Administration that gets tarred and feathers."

Doing what she alleges that he did with her was a prescription for instant death. Clarence is not a fool. And quite frankly, Anita Hill is not worth that type of risk.

[Statement of Ms. Johnson, Director, Labor Relations, EEOC]:  I had occasion to meet with Chairman Thomas alone to discuss labor relations and strategies. He was always professional. As a labor attorney with approximately 15 years of experience, I have drafted policy statements concerning sexual harassment, I have trained managers concerning what constitutes harassment, how to deal with such allegations.

Furthermore, with a previous employer, I was a victim of sexual harassment. It was the most degrading and humiliating experience of my professional career. I confided in friends and family concerning the best manner to confront it. I did confront it and I eventually left that position. But I must tell you that, during the time I had to continue to work with the perpetrator, I avoided contact, especially one-on-one contact with him, and since leaving that position I have never had any further contact with that man.

I do not believe these allegations that have been leveled against Judge Thomas. Moreover based on my professional experience, as well as my personal experience, I do not believe that a woman who has been victimized by the outrageously lewd, vile and vulgar behavior that has been described here would want to have, let alone maintain, any kind of relationship with a man that victimized her.

[Statement of Ms. L. Jackson, Social Science Research Analyst, EEOC] :  After meeting Clarence Thomas through my job, I ran into him in the hallway of my apartment building and found we lived in the same place. We began to have numerous conversations about work, politics and personal issues. We became very good friends in the process.

I believe I know the basic nature of this man better than most people in this room. I believe, unequivocally, Clarence Thomas' denial of these allegations. This is a very honorable man who has the highest respect for women. He always treated me with utmost respect and was more sensitive to women than most men I know. He never engaged me in discussions of any kind that could be considered demeaning to women.

He was often troubled by those women he knew, both professionally and women, who were having difficulties with personal problems, particularly treatment by male friends, co-workers or spouses. He and I had numerous conversations about abuse of women, physically, emotionally and verbally. You see, Senators, he helped me pick up the pieces of my own crushed spirit, after I left an abusive marriage.

His sensitivity and honor, his respect for women, his helping attitude toward all people in need, makes these allegations even more ludicrous.

[Statement of Ms. J. Brown, former Press Secretary to Senator. John Danforth]:  A number of years ago, I was sexually harassed in the workplace. It was a demeaning, humiliating, sad and revolting experience. There was an intensive and lengthy internal investigation of his case, which is the route that I chose to pursue. Let me assure you that the last thing I would ever have done is follow the man who did this to a new job, call him on the phone or voluntarily share the same air space ever again.

Other than my immediate family, the one person who is the most outraged, compassionate, caring and sensitive to me was Clarence Thomas. He helped me work through the pain and talk through the options. No one who has been through it can talk about sexual harassment dispassionately. No one who takes it seriously would do it.

I don't subscribe to the belief that men, because they are men, don't understand sexual harassment. My husband, my father and my brother understand it. Clarence Thomas understands it. And because he understands it, he wouldn't do it.

[Statement of Ms. Altman, former employee, Department of Education]:  MS. ALTMAN: My name is Nancy Altman. I consider myself a feminist. I am pro-choice. I care deeply about women's issues. In addition to working with Clarence Thomas at the Department of Education, I shared an office with him for two years in this building. Our desks were a few feet apart. Because we worked in such close quarters, I could hear virtually every conversation for two years that Clarence Thomas had. Not once in those two years did I ever hear Clarence Thomas make a sexist or offensive comment, not once.

I have myself been the victim of an improper, unwanted sexual advance by a supervisor. Gentlemen, when sexual harassment occurs, other women in the workplace know about it. The members of the committee seem to believe that when offensive behavior occurs in a private room, there can be no witnesses. This is wrong.

Sexual harassment occurs in an office in the middle of the workday. The victim is in a public place. The first person she sees immediately after the incident is usually the harasser's secretary. Co-workers, especially women, will notice an upset expression, a jittery manner, a teary or a distracted air, especially if the abusive behavior is occurring over and over and over again.

Further, the women I know who have been victimized always shared the experience with a female co-worker they could trust. They do this to validate their own experience, to obtain advice about options that they may pursue, to find out if others have been similarly abused, and to receive comfort. Friends outside the workplace make good comforters, but cannot meet the other needs.

It is not credible that Clarence Thomas could have engage in the kinds of behavior that Anita Hill alleges, without any of the women who he worked closest with--dozens of us, we could spend days having women come up, his secretaries, his chief of staff, his other assistants, his colleagues--without any of us having sensed, seen or heard something.

[Statement of Ms. A. Jenkins, former Secretary, EEOC]:  MS. JENKINS: Chairman Biden, Senator Thurmond and other members of the committee, my name is Anna Jenkins, and I reside in Silver Spring, Maryland. I am a staff assistant in the Office of Policy Development at the White House. I was not asked by the White House to give a statement. I went to them and asked if it was okay for me to give a statement...
...I had daily contact with Anita Hill and Judge Thomas. We shared a suite of offices consisting of a reception area, conference room, kitchen, and five offices. Judge Thomas' conduct around me, Anita Hill, and other staffers was always proper and professional. I have never witnessed Judge Thomas say anything or do anything that could be construed as sexual harassment. I never witnessed him making sexual advances toward any female, nor have I witnessed him engaging in sexually oriented conversations with women.

I have witnessed Judge Thomas and Anita Hill interact in the office. At no time did the relationship appear strained nor Anita appear uncomfortable with the relationship.

I understand that at Anita's press conference she denied knowing Phyliss Berry. I was confused by her denial, since Phyliss Berry often visited the office while Anita worked there. I have seen them exchange greetings.

In closing, I wish to emphasize that I have the highest regard and respect for Judge Thomas. In light of my experience with him and the way I have seen him conduct himself around other females, I find this harassment allegation unbelievable.

 

I started out to find some ridiculous thing that Senator Biden had said, but found it much more interesting to read the testimony of many of the witnesses.

DEMOCRATS:

Chief Architects of High Tech Lynchings

MSM = Misleading Sinister Media?

It seems to me that the Democrats and the MSM that favors Obama have "left the planet". By this I mean the arguments by Obama supporting MSM for electing Obama and the arguments against McCain-Palin are extremely irrational and even borderline terrorist-style radicalism. The economic policies of Obama, if supported by Democrats who may continue to control Congress, will not spread the wealth around for long because such policies will completely destroy the ability to make wealth, because basic economic sciences proves this to be the case.

My prayer is for America, under God, to have "justice for all" but especially those that are lying in the MSM and out to destroy one of the best country's on the planet, truly blessed by God. "Dear Lord, correct the MSM for their lies to hurt America."

Oh, nevermind then.
