Conservatives have been hammering President Obama the last two weeks over Egypt. They have called President Obama just about every name in the book, and repeatedly predicted failure, and the “fall of America and American influence”…
Back during the Clinton Administration Republicans hounded Clinton and eventually Impeached him in the House…
For a Blow Job.
They wasted 4 years of the Congresses’ time, ignoring looming threats which directly led to terrorist success on 911 to do damage to a legitimately elected President.
The seven Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee today called on Attorney General Eric Holder to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate Joe Sestak’s suggestion that he was offered a White House job in exchange for dropping his (ultimately successful) challenge to Sen. Arlen Specter in the Pennsylvania Democratic Senate primary.
House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Ranking Member Darrell Issa, who has been pressing this issue for months, called for a special prosecutor in April. He alleges that the White House may have violated anti-bribery provisions of the federal criminal code as well as prohibitions on government officials interfering in elections and using federal jobs for a political purpose if it made the offer.

Conservative talk show hosts and columnists have ridiculed an 11-year-old Washington state boy’s account of his mother’s death as a “sob story” exploited by the White House and congressional Democrats like a “kiddie shield” to defend their health care legislation.Marcelas Owens, whose mother got sick, lost her job, lost her health insurance and died, said Thursday he’s taking the attacks from Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and Michelle Malkin in stride.
“My mother always taught me they can have their own opinion but that doesn’t mean they are right,” Owens, who lives in Seattle, said in an interview.
Owens’ grandmother, Gina, who watched her daughter die, isn’t quite so generous.
“These are adults, and he is an 11-year-old boy who lost his mother,” Gina Owens said. “They should be ashamed.” Read the rest of this entry »
Watch this video and you will get an idea of where all the Faux News postuing, Tea Bagging Parties, and right wing “Socialist” hysteria is leading –
Now – it isn’t a stretch to see these guys similarity to the Serbian Militia’s ethnic cleansing – or to America’s first Anti-Government Militia – the Ku Klux Klan or KKK. The KKK also was started to preserve “Their America” after the Civil War. And while “Their America” included terrorist acts to keep black folks in their place, they also lynched a number of white criminals in their role to “keep the peace” and “restore order”.
Doesn’t sound much different than the Militias today.
One thing we agree on though. If a draconian gun control is put in place in this country – the only people who would have guns would be these Bozos. Looking back at the history of these sorts of organizations…
A giant signpost that Faux News is losing in their War on the Obama White House was on full display last night, as several Faux propagandists sought to dredge up, yet again the ghost of Reverend Jerimiah Wright with this clip –
I’m sure it has nothing to do with the fact that Rev. Jeremiah Wright is African American but Fox News’ obsession with him has gone over the top. Even if you think the guy is a radical extremist whatever, Wright is a former Marine and Navy corpsman who attended President Johnson as a cardiopulmonary technician. And yet Wright, who has committed no crime (or you could be sure Fox News would trumpet it 24/7) other than to espouse a political philosophy Fox News finds distasteful, has been turned into the 21st Century Willie Horton – and by a bunch of self-styled patriots who whoneverserved their country when they had the chance. With video.
“Great American” Sean Hannity sneered by way of introduction last night (11/2/09) to a meaningless video of Wright speaking of the country as being a land of greed and slavery. “(Wright) used his time at the podium to do what he does best, that’s bash the United States of America.”
After the clip, Hannity said, “That’s Rev. Wright at an event hosted by a SOCIALIST (his emphasis) magazine. So I wonder how many other friends of the president are subscribers to that publication.” Not that Hannity bothered to find out. Smarmy, baseless, innuendo is, apparently, A-OK on the “fair and balanced” network.
Hannity was not the only one to focus on this non-news event. Bill O’Reilly included Wright in the “Reality Check” segment last night. “Same tune, different place. I know the Obama people hate when we show you Wright in any context because it brings back bad memories… But Wright did influence the president’s life and that still has not been fully examined.”
Sort of like that Birth Certificate “hasn’t been fully examined”?
Faux is losing. There is no sweeter sound than racist conservative whimpering.
Hannity And Fox News Still Obsessed With Rev. Jeremiah Wright
The kiddies are definitely feeling the hate being spewed by right wingnuts against President Obama –
In public, President Obama has to put it on “Political Discourse” which some of it is as a natural outgrowth of the political parties opposing each other for power.
What he can’t say is some of it (not all) is just plain racism.
SEIU - 54 percent of all full-time Black workers in the United States receive low wages, working for $12.87 an hour or less - Unionization raises African American workers' wages by $2.00/hour (11.2 percent)
Naaaaaaahhhh! There couldn’t possibly be any similarity here!
Representative Trent Franks (R-AZ) is a member of Congress, and as such a member of the US Government. Here, he is seen demonizing President Obama at a radical right wing meeting as “An enemy of humanity”, legitimizing actions against President Obama, up to and including attempting to assassinate him…
Methinks the boy needs a serious sit down with the Congressional Ethics Committee – followed by some quality time with the Secret Service.
Thi is way over the top for a Government official.
Maddow breaks additional evidence in the case of a Census worker found lynched in Kentucky –
The pregnant elephant of a question here is whether this man’s killing had anything to do with the right-wing crazies that have been enticed out of the woodwork by the Republicans Party and their propaganda outlet, Faux News. We have a similar circumstance in 1994 with the Murrah bombing by Timothy McVeigh in Oklahoma, fueled and abetted by the over the top hate Americans rhetoric of the very same right wing outlets and propagandists.
