Topic: putin and america's integrity

[IronDioPriest]

I was listening to Rush talk about this for a while today. Right before the above excerpt, he spent some time stressing that throughout history, the human condition has overwhelmingly been subject to the whims of governments and tyrants. It made his "EXCEPTION -- e-x-c-e-p-t, except" comment even more eloquent.

We are not exceptional because we are better. We are better because our country is the exception. He didn't put it that succinctly, but his message was loud and clear, and dripping with disdain for Hussein Obama and Vladimir Putin.

It is that exceptional quality that obama wants to change. that was the change he was talking about, the change that has galled every socialist since karl marx.  he entire presidency was to eliminate the citizen's control over the government and return it to the tyranny at the top, this time a tyranny of bureaucrats but a tyranny none the less where the average citizen is just a worker for the state.

he is probably glad that putin handed him such a gift, it makes it all the easier to diminish the American brand and he now can blame putin for the job he was trying to accomplish on his own.

I am a little more than halfway through the comments on this Belmont Club piece and as yet, not one Conservative has demonstrated he understands the concept.  There's one mischaracterization after another.  It's profoundly depressing

[Libertas]

I missed Rush today, had to meet with auditors, thanks for the recap.  As always going back to Founding Principles is wise when trying to understand terms linked to our character, well, character as it used to be...the root of Pan's depression being evident in the comments in her link, too many in this nation are as clueless as those outside of it, like most things in latter day America...just another one of too many troubling signs.

Anyway, hearing a once avowed Godless communist totalitarian talk about God and blessings is ironic...Putin and Obama, which is the pot, which is the kettle...and does it really matter?  The practical effects of being in the same world as both of them and those that support them is not conducive to long term survival of the species.

The guy is just a ventriloquist's dummy,

My 'favorite' piece of Owebama 'erudition' was his statement about 'profit and earning ratios'.  An economic genius, our Sir Golfsalot is, positively Krugmanian in stature, what with his laser-like focus on how to create jobs.

[Skip to 1:50.  Notice the seriousness with which he spews that bullshyt.]

Markets See obama The Radical

"What are you, punch drunk?"  No, Steve, Owebama was simply being the Choomster-in-Chief and was stoned out of his gourd during your interview.  (Do not think for a second the KGB cannot search YouTube!  One can only imagine the sleepless nights in the Kremlin as they sit laughing their @sses off.)

60 Minutes Kroft To Joking Obama "Are You Punch Drunk?"

Oh, and when you mention the 57 state line, I now say it like this:  According to Owebama, Charleston, S.C. is on the Gulf Coast of these 57 states.  Get two digs in in one short sentence.

I sure wish the media incessantly played clips like these to show how stupid Owebama is, like they did with Quayle (who wasn't the brightest bulb but who spelled p-o-t-a-t-o-e just as the card the teacher handed him had it spelled; the rest of the story the media never mentioned).  Chocolate genius must not be mocked 'cause . . . racisss'!

Seriously, can you imagine if Owebama was doing the shyt he's doing without the internet being around? It is frightening now what King Putz is doing, but without the internet so people in various parts of the Country can share such views, as opposed to only talking to your bar buddies, we would be in much deeper shyt because we would never know any such ignorance on his part, not while our Fellatio Media Praetorian Guard is around.

You gotta love this Wiki quote: 

Press coverage of the [1988] convention was dominated with questions about "the three Quayle problems", in the phrase of Brent Baker, executive director of the Media Research Center, a conservative group that monitors television coverage.[9] The questions involved his military service, a golf trip to Florida with Paula Parkinson, and whether he had enough experience to be President.

Same shyt they pulled on that yahoo, Sarah Palin.  And yet, the Lightbringer's nonexistent qualifications were never questioned, and we see now what happens when that doesn't happen:  Putin pours himself a strong cup of black tea from the samovar while handing Owebama his @ss on a silver platter, just like John the Baptist's head.  But he's super duper, 3-D chess playing qualified.

[As an aside:  When I first heard that '3-D chess playing genius' line, I knew we were in trouble.  I actually had a 3-D chess set.  (Mr. Spock and Star Trek, what can I say?)  I was a decent regular chess player, winning a second place trophy in an local area high school tournament.  I could never play 3-D chess, it was so complicated and hard.  I knew then Barry, based upon his verbal gaffes, couldn't even play a decent game of Stratego without cheating.]

Hell, he'd probably cheat his daughters in Chutes & Ladders.

Nice rant Rick.

Thanks.

Can you imagine if Barry were to rewrite The Game of Life?  In Barry's version, there are no kids thanks to gay marriage.  The car playing pieces would all be modeled on hybrids, with refueling stations on the board that must be used for an exorbitant price.  No one gets salary increases.  All spaces have taxes due, etc.  Man, there's an idea for a timely 'gimmick' product, al a Owebama's Brain, otherwise known as Pet Rocks.  Barack Obama's The Game of Life, where everybody ends up in the poor house.  The marketing for such a product would be so damn easy as the ads write themselves every single day.

Now how to get some investors. . . .

I like it. I remember playing the old school Life board game, with the spinning wheel thing. I think we should brainstorm a variety of classic games remade to mock these morons. Like dice with the same value on all sides, so that everybody always rolls exactly the same. I'd like to see a sort of inverse Monopoly where instead of the capitalist entrepreneur being lampooned, a gargantuan regulatory bureaucracy is shown to continually kill innovation in the crib. I would call it "Fascism" except that's a bit too on the nose.

All kidding aside, this is the sort of thinking that conservatives need to learn. The Left has accomplished their takeover through the popular culture. Joe Dan Gorman at Intellectual Froglegs makes this point constantly. We have a lot of money on the Right, so why does no one ever use it in entertainment and other media?

Been barking for monied conservatives to make inroads for 30 years...look what it got me...
