the libs don't back off all this proposed spending.
The only way the libs can save seats in 2010, is to repeal the stimulus bill, shred the cap and tax and health care bills and cut taxes. If the economy is still crap in 2010, the libs are gone, maybe for good this time. I hope that lady was right when she told Arlen Specter, you have woke the sleeping giant...
If the conservatives, libertarians, republicans and right leaning independents don't lose interest before this time next year, I think there will be record numbers voting against the libs.
When it comes to government, its not whether the glass is half full or empty, its that the glass is to big by half.
I wish you were right, but sadly these things seem to be cyclical in nature. Over time, people forget what's happened in the past, and what was once old and failed becomes new again. The appeal of getting something for nothing will never go away, so the Libs will always be in business.
Of our best ally....on a British airbase in Afghanistan. The airbase opened in 2006, and has gone from 3 flights a week to 400 flights a day.
They also run a hospital there, and the cooperation is apparently stellar:
He also told of the rare occasion the hospital ran low on blood: 'We put a tannoy message out to the camp, and we were overwhelmed, even though it was in the middle of the night.
'The US Marines came over in a bus and said, "we'll help". The goodwill is absolutely huge.'
For the trollsters here.....Afghanistan is a real war. Don't ever think otherwise.
Dan, I know you're pulling Blonde's leg here but, interestingly enough, the Brits actually have a parallel system--something US media never talks about. They have a public system and a very very very expensive private insurance system.
Obama's right when he says he doesn't want to create a Brit or a Canadian health care system. He wants to make our health care system MUCH worse. ;=]
No citizen's right to life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, or property is safe as long as Obama is President of the United States.
Not that I'm a fan of Dick Morris, although he seems a little more reasonable without a dog in the fight. Nor am I a fan of many Republicans, but almost any crew would be better and more reasonable than the one we have now.
Thus my slogan for at least the next two election cycles:
Throw 'da bums out!
no incumbent re-elected, with very few exceptions!
Like with everyone, you have to know a person's strengths and weaknesses -- and discern for yourself what you can gain in listening to what they have to say. The reason I will listen to and reflect on what Morris has to say is that he is often right about the players. Yes, he over-reaches & wants to sell his books. But he has experience with the behind-the-scenes Washington machine, and I think there is value in understanding that better.
I hope he's right, but the stimulus was specifically crafted to artificially improve our economy during the 2010 elections. The statists will do whatever they can to prolong the eventual collapse of the dollar, which will be after the 2012 recoronation.
Saw that last night and like all Dick Morris comments it seems over the top. It is a long time between elections and depends on the elctorate and ACORN. It is also btween Presidential elections which usually means the more politicaly astute will vote. And these days its a crap shoot .. so come on 7 .. baby needs a new pair of shoes.
I say a significant portion will go but 100 is quite a bit. Perhaps enough to sorta even things up? But, then they will really start blaming the GOP and it might stick.
I agree. Now that ACORN knows it can intimidate voters with sticks and bats at the polls and be completely protected by Obama and the US Attorney General, they will feel free to smack voters up side of the head. Obviously, this may skew the vote.
No citizen's right to life, liberty, pursuit of happiness, or property is safe as long as Obama is President of the United States.
It will be up to the people to run those thugs out of the polls themselves. We will get no help from the Feds. I should think the first step would be a civil rights violation lawsuit aimed at the treasuries of the New Black Panther Party and ACORN. Freeze their assets while litigating against them.

I think using past incidences as an example the best way would be mega violence. Take matters into our own hands. We need to tape the incidents making sure they start it, which may be easy the first few times but harder as they catch onto the game.
Drastic measures may have to be taken to ensure our rights. If John Law aint there then we must make our own.
If we go the violence route, the instrumentalities of government violence will be imposed against us. moreover, there will be a 'see, I told you so! They are dangerous right-wing nuts!' propaganda campaign from the likes of Janet Napolitano and the Obama media allies.

How long do you think it will take or Americans to grasp that widespread voting fraud by Democrats is in part responsible for the current state of affairs?
Many people have heard abount the 'Franken' election in whcih 25 heavily Democrtatic precincts that voted overwhelmingly for Franken had more votes counted than voters who actually voted. Another precinct reported more votes than registered voters in the precinct, also going for Franken.
More recently, the special election in NY20 to replace Kirsten Gillibrand has revealed vote fraud. Numerous admissions have surfaced that owners of vacation and summer residences in Saratoga and Columbia Counties are registered to vote in those counties and did vote in that special election despite also being registered to vote in NYC, where their principle residence is located. These same voters voted in the city on Nov 4 2008. They will most likely vote in NYC in Nov 2009. New York has declined to prosecute these people citing a lack of intent on the part of these crooks. That special election was decided for Democrat Scott Murphy, by a few hundred votes, and these criminals are those votes.

...second day in a row my Happy Meal did not have any fries 'spilled' in the box. You know how after you eat all your fries, you can always find a few more in the bottom of the box!
I'd feel more confident in this prediction if it were August 2010 instead of August 2009. Still lots of time between then and now and who knows what may happen in the interim. Not that I would mind seeing the Socialist Democrats get kapowed next year, but it's way early for making that kind of forecast. I remember Morris saying with certainty in early 2008 that Hillary Clinton would be the next POTUS. He, like many, had no way of predicting our Life of Brian-style Messiah coming on the scene to mess up Hillary's coronation with his own. So, while Dick's 100-seat prediction sounds great, I'll wait until closer to November 2010 to put any real faith in it.
"The words of a President have an enormous weight and ought not to be used indiscriminately." - Calvin Coolidge
As much as I would love to see large amounts of Congress voted out, I think it's too early to tell. Right now people are angry. But anger has a way of disappearing until the next time. (During the Carter administration, we had to ration gas. Everyone was angry, but was anything actually done?) By the end of 2009, everyone but conservatives will have forgotten the disaster of Cash for Clunkers, Healthcare, stimulus, cap and trade, etc. Those time bombs aren't set to go off for another year or two. If Obama can keep things tranquil between Summer 2010 and November 2010, few seats will be lost.
Is 'the man in the Whitehouse' as bad as these guys?
I think in general, the public is all "wee weed up" with him and he could out do even Clinton...hmm, remember it was clintoncare that preceded the 1994 mid-term elections!
Not that I was surprised but when Glenn Beck exposed Obama's Green Jobs Czar Van Jones as a self-proclaimed commie that made my blood boil. Then I went to Van's wiki page and the quote is plainly stated right there how he became a communist. This should be enough grounds to impeach Obama in my opinion. He is not protecting the constitution (which we all knew but we need something concrete to go off of).
...and the republican leadership, along with the rank-and-file, stops cowering under the table, scared to criticize Obama for anything that really matters.
Today when he walked out for the renomination, he had the biggest swagger yet! It was disgusting. If you get a chance to watch the tape, you will see this smug self-satisfied jerk. He may explode any minute because he is so giddy over being POTUS.
I enjoy hearing from Dick Morris on Fox News. Sure he makes a lot of predictions, and many don't pan out, but other talking heads are too timid to put their reputation on the line and make a prediction. He regularly offers great insights into the way DC works. Yes he worked for Clinton at one time, but how many of us were liberals when we were young and less wise?
Glenn Beck used his popular Fox News show this afternoon to attack the background of Van Jones, a White House environmental advisor who co-founded an African American political advocacy group that organized an advertising boycott of his program....
Instead, he spent a large share of his program suggesting that Jones, who co-founded Color of Change in 2005, is a radical. Jones now serves as a special advisor for Green Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation at the White House Council on Environmental Quality.....
Since his Fox News show launched in January, Beck has attracted a sizable audience with his strident denunciations of the Obama administration and apocalyptic warnings about the country’s direction. Late last month, during an appearance on the morning show “Fox & Friends,” he accused Obama of having “a deep-seated hatred for white people or the white culture.”....
Now here comes the part that the Times would rather not print:
The flap that ensued did not appear to dampen Beck’s viewership. This month, his show has averaged 2.25 million viewers, 99% more than tuned in during the same period last year, when the network aired “America’s Election HQ” during the time period. And his ratings are up from July, when Beck's program averaged 2.05 million viewers. Fan websites such as Defend Glenn have called for viewers to fight back against the advertising boycott, and some media veterans have denounced the tactic as a suppression of free speech.

"Fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly, liberal Democrats have to accuse their opponents of racism." ~Jonah Goldberg National Review
Isn't always a shock that right-wing terrorist turn out to be democrats? I have a hunch should something happen to Obama it would be more likely done by one of his supporters rather than an opposer.
"On Friday, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said his boss was "quite comfortable" with the idea that sticking to his agenda may well mean "he only lives in this house" for one term. Sounds like a man who appreciates the limits of a president's personal popularity." WSJ
"A Texas woman faces trial this month in Austin on charges she threatened to kill a government informant who infiltrated an Austin-based group that planned to bomb the Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minn., last fall. Katyanne Marie Kibby, 25, was indicted in June by a federal grand jury in Austin. She is accused of retaliating against Brandon Darby, the community activist-turned-informant who helped federal prosecutors win convictions against Bradley Neal Crowder, 24, and David Guy McKay, 23."
If these loons were Republicans, this story would lead today's news. Let's also watch how the all-forehead no-brain Eric Holder handles this.
Photo is well not like any roads on the Island, That is the only nice one mile section of road that runs in front of the capital buildings, no one drives by there, it;s a dead end!..gawd! They can't even fill the pot holes, and now they are going to paint arrows on the the dirt roads, lolololol
It could also help more people escape tsunamis, says Mr. Tuilaepa.
Okay, I see it now. To see it at your links I had to enable the 'eproof' and 'drudgereportarchive' script in my NoScript add-on. I use NoScript, AdBlocker, and FlashBlock at NB to cut down on all the stuff that loads.
The Obama Administration's release of interrogation techniques to the world, and by default - our enemies, is nothing less than, as I view it, treason. For one thing, it allows our enemies to adjust their ways when dealing with those brave men and women who are charged with keeping our nation safe.
It is setting a bad precedent to prosecute any actions not that are not treason of a former admin. The investigations/prosecutions of the CIA for actions during President Bush's Presidency is a problem. It seems the ems get passes on their actions while GOP has investigations.
“It would be evolution versus creationism,” said William Kovacs, the
chamber’s senior vice president for environment, technology and
regulatory affairs. “It would be the science of climate change on
trial.”
The chamber proposal “brings to mind for me the Salem witch trials,
based on myth,” said Brenda Ekwurzel, a climate scientist for the
environmental group Union of Concerned Scientists. “In this case, it
would be ignoring decades of publicly accessible evidence.”
You know the score. You're debating about that hopeless boob Obama with a member of his Cult, or any old commie fellow traveler.
You are winning hands down, not that hard as they all support an quasi-socialist ideology with over two centuries of failure with which to call upon as proof.
Then it comes, in that whiney sanctomonious voice that liberals all seem to possess...
"Well you don't like Obama cos you're a racist. Only racists could fail to see the brilliance of Obama... blah... whine... blah..."
"Not true," you respond jovially...
"I only dislike and despise Obama's WHITE half... That's the part of his heritage which invented all this socialist, big government control garbage. Engels. Marx, Lenin, Robespierre.. I really like his funky black half."
Thanks Barack! You've done more to promote conservatism than any president since Ronald Reagan (PBUH).
It's sometimes worthwhile to save articles in the liberal media if you think they might be disappeared. The guys at NB often write articles on headlines that have been PC-modified or articles that disappear entirely. You can send them stuff on the tipline email address when it works. Screenshots or an entire firefox-save where it creates a folder with every component of the webpage works too. That's how I saved the entire webpage of the first appearance of the Obama Joker, now disappeared.
Rush has just played a clip of Barney Frank yesterday on a Boson Fox affiliate...
He was being pitched softballs (no pun intended) by the Manbo interviewer... I paraphrase his reply...
"You know I'm werrry surpwised that my Wepubwicann fwends are suppworting (okay that enough with the written lisp) Lyndon LaRouche supporters in calling Obama, Hitler. And by the way I disagreed when some used to call Bush, Hitler...
Why ould he disagree with calling Bush Hitler?
After all, in 2007 Barney accused President Bush of organizing "ethnic cleansing" in N'awlins to help the GOP win elections.
Mmm, isn't that a phrase for "Genocide." Some Austrian guy was quite famous for that. Mmmm, oh yeah.
Genocide. Let that word work its way around your mind for an moment. Genocide is the deliberate and systematic extermination of a national, racial, political, or cultural group. Think about that. And then watch the most grotesque public statement made by any elected official in the United States in the last 100 years.
No, I’m not kidding or reaching for the hyperbole. Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) in the video below accuses the Bush administration of perpetrating “ethnic cleansing by hurricane” in Louisana after Katrina, in order to make Louisiana more Republican. The video and audio quality aren’t good, but the words are there. Listen a couple of times if you have to.
Thanks Barack! You've done more to promote conservatism than any president since Ronald Reagan (PBUH).
The Bamster could spend the summer reading Doonesbury cartoon collections and listening to 2LiveCrew on his walkman, and the liberal media would praise him for his common touch and his connection with the popular culture.
As a libertarian, I am a huge supporter of the free market, and oppose just about any government interference in same, but damnit, when it comes to preserving our nation's heritage, there ought to be limits.
This just irks me, as we have lost so many historic, and not just Civil War related, areas in this country as it is:
We are heading down the toilet so fast, is there ANYONE, any GROUP of sound MINDS out there, that knows how to deal with and reverse such astromical numbers? BY GETTING GOVERNMENT OUT OF THE WAY!!!! The numbers are off the charts, out of anyone's realm of complete understanding. We are being setup for something I don't think we even can fathom until it hits us. When that is, I don't know, but it's coming because the spending trend continues out of control. The spending MUST STOP, and reverse. Forward movement of the current spending pace will end America. Period!!! The world will not continue to buy our debt, and we cannot continue to print useless paper.
They'll soon be forced to pay attention. The Great Depression caused people to pay attention, involuntarily. The current trend has to cease. If it does not, America's days are numbered. It's pure logic. Not doom and gloom talk, not an opinion. Pure logic.
On the debt clock, notice in the center, Est Currency and Credit Derivatives. That number is $644 trillion. I never noticed it until I saw Beck bring out the debt clock with Charles Payne and they pointed it out.
Even if Morris is right, I don't think it will make any difference.
Remember, those elections are a year away and by then how many "Czars" will Obama have? A few dozen czars will probably outweigh a few hundred Congressment by then.
One of the 34% who thinks George W. Bush was a great President. One of the 86% who wants to bring back the stock and pillory.
"I swear sometimes the self-appointed moral police are as obnoxious and demanding of big government interference as "environmentalist" gun control advocates, labor unions and trial lawyers"~fitzfong
This is what sets NB apart from leftist sites is people generally don't take cheap shots like KOS about Tony Snow and Charlton Heston in death. However some of the comments on Tiller surprised me though, I guess peoples POV on abortion always brings out the worst in them, pro life and pro choice.
"I swear sometimes the self-appointed moral police are as obnoxious and demanding of big government interference as "environmentalist" gun control advocates, labor unions and trial lawyers"~fitzfong
Well, it's kind of hard to feel remorse for a man who made his living killing the most innocent among usfor reasons as trivial as wanting to go to a concert. He earned any disrespect he received.
As for Kennedy, rest in peace, sir. Cancer takes far too many people.
I understand ckc, just like I don't expect people to feel remorse for Kennedy, I'm just saying most of the times people on NB are very respectful. With Tiller people just decided to focus on the monster he was an how the the msm would react, rather than the fact he was gunned down in a Church in front of his family.
"I swear sometimes the self-appointed moral police are as obnoxious and demanding of big government interference as "environmentalist" gun control advocates, labor unions and trial lawyers"~fitzfong
but as far as I'm concerned, Tiller was no better than Jeffrey Dahmer. I'm sorry for how it happened and that bystanders witnessed it. But Tiller gets no sympathy from me.
I don't expect anyone to have sympathy for him, but when Kennedy was diagnosed with brain cancer or Elizabeth Edwards was diagnosed with breast cancer I saw nothing but class from NB members.
It just threw me for loop on how people talked about the dead with Tiller and it was surprising. I also disagree with you about the "Dahmer" comparision, but I don't want to go down that road tonight.
"I swear sometimes the self-appointed moral police are as obnoxious and demanding of big government interference as "environmentalist" gun control advocates, labor unions and trial lawyers"~fitzfong
.....suprisingly the ABC article I linked did not leave out the Mary Jo C. part.
"I swear sometimes the self-appointed moral police are as obnoxious and demanding of big government interference as "environmentalist" gun control advocates, labor unions and trial lawyers"~fitzfong
Because Tiller is a different matter altogether. He was not a politician, he ran a business that many found to be reprehensible. Not sure why you're equating many NB'ers reaction to him vs. to Kennedy and others you're mentioning. How he was killed is irrelevant.
...it is old news. I can debate you on the how he was killed as being relevant, but you will probably use the scoreboard on me again and steal material from another poster. You still have not changed and love to speak for other posters.
Good night shy and R.I.P. Ted Kennedy.
"I swear sometimes the self-appointed moral police are as obnoxious and demanding of big government interference as "environmentalist" gun control advocates, labor unions and trial lawyers"~fitzfong
I just mean, on NB'ers not having remorse that Tiller is gone/dead, but not on any of them saying "hooray, it's good someone took him out!". Has anyone here done that?
Well as someone from MA originally and knowing how the Kennedys are I didnt like or respect him.That being said I wish no one to have to suffer(Except terrorist).My condolences to his family.RIP.
So it appears likely that those that brought up legislation regarding his replacement process suddenly in the last week or two may have had a heads-up on his condition, since the last public reports on his status from a month or two ago were somewhat optimistic.
Last I heard, changes to Massachusetts law had not made it through, which means wait until November. Anyone confirm?
Now that he has passed, I hope that Kennedy got himself "right with the Lord" before he died. He had a number of things in his life that he likely is having to answer for now.
"The problem is not that people are taxed too little...the problem is that government spends too much." ~President Ronald Reagan

Unable to connect to database server
If you still have to install Drupal, proceed to the installation page.
If you have already finished installed Drupal, this either means that the username and password information in your settings.php
file is incorrect or that we can't connect to the MySQL database
server. This could mean your hosting provider's database server is down.
The MySQL error was: Can't connect to MySQL server on '10.10.10.2' (4).
Currently, the username is nbdrupalclient and the database server is 10.10.10.2.

Hmm...
August 25, 2009 - 10:15 ET by Meredith1966I'd feel more confident in this prediction if it were August 2010 instead of August 2009. Still lots of time between then and now and who knows what may happen in the interim. Not that I would mind seeing the Socialist Democrats get kapowed next year, but it's way early for making that kind of forecast. I remember Morris saying with certainty in early 2008 that Hillary Clinton would be the next POTUS. He, like many, had no way of predicting our Life of Brian-style Messiah coming on the scene to mess up Hillary's coronation with his own. So, while Dick's 100-seat prediction sounds great, I'll wait until closer to November 2010 to put any real faith in it.

Losing Seats
August 25, 2009 - 10:33 ET by GothampcAs much as I would love to see large amounts of Congress voted out, I think it's too early to tell. Right now people are angry. But anger has a way of disappearing until the next time. (During the Carter administration, we had to ration gas. Everyone was angry, but was anything actually done?) By the end of 2009, everyone but conservatives will have forgotten the disaster of Cash for Clunkers, Healthcare, stimulus, cap and trade, etc. Those time bombs aren't set to go off for another year or two. If Obama can keep things tranquil between Summer 2010 and November 2010, few seats will be lost.

August 25, 2009 - 10:36 ET by taterNot that I was surprised but when Glenn Beck exposed Obama's Green Jobs Czar Van Jones as a self-proclaimed commie that made my blood boil. Then I went to Van's wiki page and the quote is plainly stated right there how he became a communist. This should be enough grounds to impeach Obama in my opinion. He is not protecting the constitution (which we all knew but we need something concrete to go off of).

Re Morris
August 25, 2009 - 10:48 ET by slickwillie2001I enjoy hearing from Dick Morris on Fox News. Sure he makes a lot of predictions, and many don't pan out, but other talking heads are too timid to put their reputation on the line and make a prediction. He regularly offers great insights into the way DC works. Yes he worked for Clinton at one time, but how many of us were liberals when we were young and less wise?

Woman Threatens Informant Who Broke Up Plot to Bomb GOP Convention: http://sayanythingblog.com
"A Texas woman faces trial this month in Austin on charges she threatened to kill a government informant who infiltrated an Austin-based group that planned to bomb the Republican National Convention in St. Paul, Minn., last fall. Katyanne Marie Kibby, 25, was indicted in June by a federal grand jury in Austin. She is accused of retaliating against Brandon Darby, the community activist-turned-informant who helped federal prosecutors win convictions against Bradley Neal Crowder, 24, and David Guy McKay, 23."

Then it comes, in that whiney sanctomonious voice that liberals all seem to possess...
"Well you don't like Obama cos you're a racist. Only racists could fail to see the brilliance of Obama... blah... whine... blah..."
"Not true," you respond jovially...
Re Disappearances
August 25, 2009 - 13:45 ET by slickwillie2001It's sometimes worthwhile to save articles in the liberal media if you think they might be disappeared. The guys at NB often write articles on headlines that have been PC-modified or articles that disappear entirely. You can send them stuff on the tipline email address when it works. Screenshots or an entire firefox-save where it creates a folder with every component of the webpage works too. That's how I saved the entire webpage of the first appearance of the Obama Joker, now disappeared.

August 26, 2009 - 01:11 ET by MrShyBecause Tiller is a different matter altogether. He was not a politician, he ran a business that many found to be reprehensible. Not sure why you're equating many NB'ers reaction to him vs. to Kennedy and others you're mentioning. How he was killed is irrelevant.
And R.I.P. Ted.
Like candance said...
August 26, 2009 - 01:29 ET by shawn228...it is old news. I can debate you on the how he was killed as being relevant, but you will probably use the scoreboard on me again and steal material from another poster. You still have not changed and love to speak for other posters.
Good night shy and R.I.P. Ted Kennedy.

August 26, 2009 - 02:52 ET by MrShyI just mean, on NB'ers not having remorse that Tiller is gone/dead, but not on any of them saying "hooray, it's good someone took him out!". Has anyone here done that?

News
August 26, 2009 - 00:43 ET by slickwillie2001Fox News: Ted Kennedy dead.
Legislation
August 26, 2009 - 01:02 ET by slickwillie2001So it appears likely that those that brought up legislation regarding his replacement process suddenly in the last week or two may have had a heads-up on his condition, since the last public reports on his status from a month or two ago were somewhat optimistic.
Last I heard, changes to Massachusetts law had not made it through, which means wait until November. Anyone confirm?
slick...The timing of all that "replacement" talk...
August 26, 2009 - 01:48 ET by PrairieSkydoes make you wonder, doesn't it? Who knows?...
Now that he has passed, I hope that Kennedy got himself "right with the Lord" before he died. He had a number of things in his life that he likely is having to answer for now.
