A Red White and Blue Group Hug


It was not a pick me-me-me as your leader rally. It was not even a king-making event. It was not a Hollyweird production. It was not a Republican red thing. It was not a Democrat blue thing. And despite an irrational deep-seated hatred for Glenn Beck which extremist Progressive Liberals used as fuel, for never-ending attempts at derailing what was basically an oversized group-hug – Glenn Beck helped thousands-upon-thousands of USAmericans come together for a Red, White & Blue Moment! Good for him!

Team Philobluster in Stealth Debate Mode


It is generally accepted in political circles that if you wish potentially damaging news to be in stealth mode – you release it on a Friday, since Friday-after-5 PM is considered weekend party time. Early Saturday morning I signed on to Al Gore’s Internet invention and read a Quad City Online article -originally posted at 7:23 PM Friday, by local Democrat Politburo cheerleader Brandy Donaldson- stating that incumbent Congressman Phil Hare would finally accept the open debate challenge from challenger Bobby Schilling. Hmmm, Friday night is prep football night for many families, travel night for families gone fishing and time to embarrass ourselves for us singles. Friday night after 7 PM is not a time to attract readers for prime news. By the time most people see the news it will be buried deep among trivial pursuits. So considering the time release of the article –red-lights started flashing and warning bells started ringing!!! Why would a sitting Democrat Congressman and his squires inside the media, in a district gerrymandered heavily in favor of Democrat candidates; try and slip this important bit of news under the news radar??? It sounds like Team Philobluster is in TGIF News mode!!!

Phil Hare has proven time and time again when confronted by cameras and questions, where Phil can’t sing and dance his normal programmed party puppet routine, Phil comes out looking CLUELESS! We have discussed Philobluster’s floundering camera personality in numerous exchanges over on Quad City Examiners blog. Phil Hare does not do the open-discussion Hope-and-Change speech very well. So why are his handlers and the local Democrat Party Politburo gambling that they can keep Philobluster from coming across like his normal useless toady persona  in a debate. Another interesting factor about the Hare proposed debates, are that they are timed like a desperate Hail Mary Pass, right before the elections. Strange as that leaves little time for spin and clean-up of the fan dispersed bullshit following the debate. I realize that Philobluster’s seat in Congress has steadily slipped from solidly in the Democrat totals until now it is considered at risk to the Republicans – but frankly, I believe taking a ribwich serving Krusty the Clown -like Phil Hare- and placing him in a risky public forum, reeks of desperation and/or a knowledge by the local Politburo that they can preprogram the debate question and answer forum. But then I am just a paisley&plaid wearing, hard-up desperate wild and crazy guy from the sticks, posting a  political rant on a weekend after 5 PM Friday. Sigh!!! Perhaps Team Philobluster will have plenty of time to share some of their cruising-for-chicks tips with us wild and crazy guys, following the election. Or like the local Democrat Politburo hoping for Philobluster to come across as Slick Willy in a debate, maybe that is not such a good idea either.

If Wishes were Fishes


When dealing with Democrat Party faithful followers, if you are a Non-Democrat that is vocal in your disapproval of Barack Obama then you are branded a racist. If you do not buy into the Al Goracle religious prophecy of Global Warming or the job killings efforts of the Team Obama Cap and Trade legislation, then you must be an uneducated flat-earther  seeking to overrun Mother Earth with pollutants. If you vocally disagree with the Progressive Liberal abortion on demand policy, as a form of legitimate birth control, then you are painted as a woman hating misogynist. If you disagree with the disastrous way in which Team Obama is handling the illegal immigration  nightmare, then you are labeled a xenophobic and/or a racist. The key imaging behind these and all attacks on individuals that do not worship the Democrat Party Progressive Liberal platform – is the desire to demean those with opposing views as violent vermin infestations in need of eradication. Plus as Team Obama has constantly displayed – even if you are on board the Progressive Liberal Express, if you become a liability in achieving their agenda- politicians will toss friend as well as foe under the bus and then run over the wounded body with the train – to make sure the body is dead.  The insecure philosophy of eating their own has long been a part of  party politics. When scandal and/or disastrous poll rating are part of the equation – you can bet that; Just Like Bobby Bright –> if wishes were fishes, all Democrat legislators up for reelection would be casting similar nets, hoping to cull out and harvest the damaged goods among party leadership muddying up the election waters, before the fall cycle begins.

Free Speech – No Longer Free


U.S. Declaration of Independence ratified by t...

Image via Wikipedia

It seems every-time I read a news story about Philadelphia, they are doing their best to prove that their long held title as the city of “Brotherly Love” is really a misnomer. The city that was the birthplace of the United States of America and was once the proud freedom loving Capitol of the US – now seeks to curtail free speech. It seems that the City of Philadelphia is now charging bloggers a $300 fee to operate a blog, along with taxes for any revenue they might bring in from advertisements. Translation – what better way to silence free speech, than charge independent bloggers an operational fee. It seems that in Philadelphia, free-speech will no longer be free and only for those wealthy enough to pay the City off for thinking and having an opinion. I am guessing that George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams and all the rest of the US Founding Fathers are rolling over in their graves at this bit of news.

More Obama Conspiracy


In the 2008 Democrat Primary it looked like Hillary Clinton was an automatic selection as the Democrat POTUS candidate. Then the momentum changed and Barack Obama with a basic reform candidacy built on blank statements of false prophet promises – pushed the Clinton political machine to the side and out of the race. There have been many reasons juxtaposed for the Clinton/Obama reversal of 2008 campaign fortunes. One conspiracy theory espoused by Alex Jones -and immediately dismissed by most media sources as a tinfoil-cap rant- involved a reversal of support for Clinton in favor of Obama by a shadow group known only as the Bilderberg Group. The story was that Obama was more willing than Clinton to manage against US sovereignty in legislative issues: in favor the New World Order ideology of one world government, that would often allow Global Legislation and Concerns precedence over current and new US legislation. And while the mainstream media has worked hard to dismiss the Obama/Bilderberg ties – the story continues to gain momentum. According to the US News Today site, former Cuban leader Fidel Castro has added his voice against the Bilderberg groups influence in global governments. Adding Castro’s concerns about the Bilderberg Group’s current power brokering, to what has been mostly various factions and individuals led by conspiracy theorists such as Jones- really creates some very strange bedfellows.

Big Game Fishing


When you go fishing for a trophy catch you use a smaller fish for bait. Sometimes you lose the bait and the cost involved for your efforts of seeking glory. But it is a risk you take, when seeking the bigger prize. No matter how great the fisherman or the quality of equipment and bait used; often the really big fish still get away.  According to insinuations by former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, his trial was such bait – in a quest to catch some bigger fish among the Team Obama Administration. But then many of us surmised that possibility long before the Blago trial began. We have seen this sport of pushme-pullyou fishing expeditions probing practically every Democrat and Republican administration in power during modern political times. Considering the manpower involved and the costs of the first Blago trial, the Multi-Million Dollar questions are; will the Blago prosecutorial team pack up their gear and take home their catch, continue to fish and cut bait with what they have on hand,  or seek out some new bait to lure in the bigger fish they seek with their fishing expedition. No matter the decision, no matter the prize sought, we taxpayers always get stuck with the bill when the US Justice system goes big game fishing. It is a lose-lose situation where shyster lawyers, scoundrels, scalawags and outright criminals hope to make the law and order costs of seeking justice for crimes committed – more expensive than the costs of just letting the crooks run free.

Sigh!!!

Illinois Dreaming – So long, Farewell, Auf Weidersehen, Goodbye


Who would of thought that an endorsement from his holiness the False Prophet of Hope and Change – Barack Obama- would be a bad thing here in the political La-La land of Illinois. After all, the Holy One did birth his political career as a Democrat Machine’s Puppet,  here in Illinois. Yet according to a recent media article, pollster Political Policy Polling found that —> 40% of Illinois voters said they would be less likely to vote for an Obama supported candidate, while only 26% of Illinois voters would see an Obama endorsement for a candidate as a  blessing!

Oops!             :oops:          Oops!

Maybe the False Prophet should come and spend some quality campaign  time with Illinois Congressman, and Democrat Progressive Liberal Politburo Puppet,  Phearless Philobluster Hare. It has been since the Lane Evans’ days that I was obliged in attending a RI Democrat Politburo function. But a Phil Hare good-bye party is one RI County Democrat Politburo function, I would be willing to attend, even if I had to RSVP. It would be even more fun if there were dart boards embedded with Phil’s and Lane’s image. Now that would be a fun activity. The whole idea has this Illinoisan dreaming that the sun would come out tomorrow-tomorrow, bet your bottom dollar the sun would shine – with a brighter future, for those of us here in Illinois.  Heck, I might even be willing to sing a few lyrics from the Sound of Music such as — So long, farewell, Auf Weidersehen, goodbye –  as a good riddance err I mean as a bon voyage to good old Philobluster at the event!

Curses Foiled Again


Well for a short moment in time,  it looked like I was back in style! I started reading a Daily Mail article and it said:

While recent years have seen the seemingly unstoppable rise of male grooming, 85 per cent of women said that the hirsute look suits men better.

Waxing and excessive shaving got the thumbs down, with girls opting for a ‘real man’ instead.

Shaved chests, plucked eyebrows and the ‘back, sack and crack’ wax were not, after all, the way to a woman’s heart, the survey found.

I was ecstatic after reading the analysis. :-) Especially since shaved chests, plucked eyebrows and the ‘back, sack and crack’ wax are not (and never will be) included as part of my normal grooming process! Sadly my back-in-style moment was soon to be crushed in the same article. :sad: Further down in the article some distressing news was included to crush theScoundrel‘s back-in-style comeback-dream:

Only 8 per cent of women said they liked their men groomed to perfection, narrowly beating the 7 per cent who preferred to see a werewolf-like quantity of hair.

Okay that does present a problem. The problem being–> even after soaking in hair creme rinse for three hours,  it takes at least three t-shirts to contain the Midwestern Plains expansion growing on my chest and back, so that I may suppress any porcupine spikes from piercing anyone close enough to notice released male hormones. Curses, foiled again – by trivializing poll specifics. Seven percent poll ratings - really cuts down on a guys options when cruising the nightspots! Heck – that’s even lower than the Democrat and Republican Congress’ ratings!!!   :sad:

The Never Ending Cycle of Dirty DC Politics Begins Again


The what went on behind closed doors ménage à trois of Team Obama-Joe Sestak-Bill Clinton has become news once again. Evidently Clinton dropped another of his historic  “I did not have sexual relations with” (this time about Joe Sestak) comments during an interview. He claimed he was not a go-between floating political opportunity possibilities for Team Obama and Sestak. Well that could be embarrassing for someone. Of course with Billy-Bob Clinton’s history of lying -even under judicial oath- it only confuses the matter even more. The most ardent of Clinton supporters used to adamantly dismiss the fact that Teflon Clinton was such an adept liar,  as they chimed that his mistruths harmed no one.  Wonder how that feels right about now, with Team Obama members sitting in the cross-hairs of his gifted fables. My almost psychic ability is already hearing the calls for a special investigator.

You have to ask the questions. Did members of Team Obama break rules in trying to keep Sestak from playing Washington DC  reindeer games? Is boastful Bill just playing word games or flat out lying, again? If so – why? Is he spiteful because his choice lost in the Colorado power play? Is it some sort of Clinton power play to continue regaining Clinton superpower status among Democrat Party members? Is it a preemptive strike for a Hillary for POTUS campaign in 2012? So many questions – so few answers. And since politicians and DC political power brokering are involved; we can expect little in facts that have not been tarnished by spin! Another chink in the False Prophets Hope and Change mantra. It does not matter which major political party is in power – sex, greed, lies, power brokering and thuggish tactics still rule DC politics.

:-)   The Never Ending Cycle of Dirty DC Politics Begins Again!!!  :-)

Quad City ACLU Chapter Suspended


The Quad City Times reported that the Iowa ACLU has suspended the Quad City Branch  of the ACLU. The article did not give much for reasoning behind the move – other than the current QC leadership does not goose-step to the required marching orders from its ACLU masters. The article did quote the current head of the Quad City chapter following his election to office:

At the time of his election, Bucksbaum and others said the organization would step up education and communications activities, as well as the monitoring of local government and the media.Typical ACLU rhetoric.

Translation–>
It is not that the ACLU is using Big Brother spying tactics as they seek to protect terrorists and criminals from justice, by using obscure or bullshit reasoning; it is just that the ACLU is not properly reeducating the public about its contemptible functions through their media sourced propaganda and spin. Wow – that sounds a lot like the Team Obama Administration attempts to explain away the unpopularity of its Socialist agenda legislation.

I wonder what is motivating the State level of the ACLU to suspend the local chapter. Perhaps the Quad City Nazi activists are letting the local QC ACLU chapter down, by not being loathsome enough to merit saving their Nazi buttocks from the justice system. Perhaps it is because we lack actual Quad City terrorists for the local branch to protect. Maybe it is because the Quad City region has been coming down hard on pedophiles and the local chapter of the ACLU has not been following normal ACLU principals of protecting perverts and criminals over the rights of victims seeking justice.  Gosh darn it, who can really say.

The ACLU protecting Domestic/Global terrorists, criminals and perverts from receiving justice. Yes, just like Stuart Smalley – The ACLU is smart enough to get away with it, they are good enough to get away with it. And Gosh-Darn It, Felons love them! But I guess our local Quad City chapter just ain’t picking up their share of the protecting criminals load. What a shame. :roll:

May the closing be forever and part of a growing National trend!
