The Ragged, Rising Storm

We here have no special divinely-guided foresight or unique forewarning… we just scrape our brains every now and then when we need it.

And this presidential election cycle has been most needful of it! Replete, over-flowing, rampant, stuffed to the gills… all across America… left, right and center…brain-scraping gurf, and we only have Citizen-Issue Spoons!

But the two lawsuits coming to critical junctures on or before December 2 of this year, in time to CHANGE the outcome of the Electoral College, deal with much more than simply whether or not Hussein Obama has sold Ice Cream to 40 Million Americans, or set up a minimally-expensive ‘Gotcha!’ to burn a small group of his detractors, who wanted him to show citizenship in America, as required by the United States Constitution.

No, these lawsuits (Keyes’ in California and Justice David Souter’s for the US Supreme Court) are about something much deeper, more profoundly disturbing and central to the lives of rational Americans, namely: whether America will continue to be a nation based on law, respect for the law, equal rights and equal responsibilities before the law?

Or will America choose (is America CHOOSING, right now?) to drift into rule by trickery, subterfuge, spin, hype, bloviation and coordinated lies and half-truths propagated by a wide range of entrenched orthodoxies calling themselves News Media?

For with any law-oriented outcome in either of the lawsuits demanding Mr Obama show documentary proof not only that he was BORN HERE, in America, but that Mr Obama did not acquire Indonesian citizenship as a minor, and hence lose his American citizenship at that time- Mr Obama (and his visible and less-visible supporters and sponsors) would be rather greatly inconvenienced by any ruling that does not allow him, under American law, to serve as president.

Greatly inconvenienced is hardly the word… and the Ice-Cream Third-Graders, all over 21, who voted him in would feel greatly embarrassed, frustrated, angry and victimized. They would feel deprived of their Ice Cream.

Because of these foreseeable outcomes, it is easy to surmise that much pressure is being brought to bear on the court justices hearing these arguments and making decisions, ostensibly in accord with Constitutional law, by December 2nd, that their decisions might somehow gloss over Mr Obama’s Kenyan birth, or his underage mother’s lack of sufficient time in America to bestow upon him legal citizenship, or his stepfather’s loving efforts to get Obama-the-Youth into a Jakarta school and therefore Obama’s acquired Indonesian citizenship.

Maybe the courts will find that, sure enough, Mr Obama has failed to demonstrate his American citizenship, and one or the other of the courts will rule that Mr Obama is ineligible to serve as president… only to have that ruling NOT publicized in ANY American newsprint paper and NOT ONCE spoken of on Mainstream (legacy) Media or Cable TV or any medium except the Internet and the blogosphere…

Then what? It’s Friday, December 5th, and Mr Obama has been found ineligible to serve as president, but nobody can be found to serve papers on him to step aside, and nobody outside of a tiny portion of the blogosphere knows of the ruling… what can be done?

Are YOU going to hand out copies of the District Court ruling, stuff them into the hands of laughing delegates to the Electoral College as they convene to vote? Will YOU raise your voice to go against the speeding train of ‘America’s First Black President’? Will YOU risk everything in order to re-establish government of the people, by the people and for the people BY LAW?

Because if you DON’T, if you are willing to go along with non-Americans ‘ruling’ America… If you are willing to let US troops (NOT the National Guard) be stationed INSIDE America… if you’re willing to work 10 hours a day for 5.2 hours’ pay so that your earnings can be ‘redistributed’ to people unwilling to WORK for their OWN wealth…

If you are willing to accept these and other indignities, then you will get the tyranny you so richly deserve, and will learn to lickspittle from the boots of your masters, marching off to Sensitivity Training to learn how to criticize yourself before a tribunal of your betters, your peers, your comrades… and it still will not save you.

Mr Obama’s friend William Ayers agrees that Obama’s government may have to eliminate (kill) upward of 25 MILLION PEOPLE in America, to get rid of the obstructionists and anti-government racists and other intelligentsia and ne’er-do-wells and holdouts and rednecks and homos and Jews and Bible-thumpers and Pope-lovers and Polacks and Baha’is and all the other ignorant, racist jerks who just don’t want to cooperate with America’s new masters!

Leave a comment or better yet, take the time to LEARN of Justice Souter’s decision and the outcome of the Keyes lawsuit and take them to your local newspaper and a television station near you and courteously DEMAND that they take this news to the citizens of a law-abiding America!

Defending Obama

I have a friend, executive type, VERY capable, and she's a native Kenyan, now back living in Nairobi sparkplugging an air-charter company for cargo and clients. She's very enthusiastic about Obama, and her enthusiasm was catching, so I set out to argue Obama's case, promote him, speak well of him, and started a list of good things about Obama.

First of all, there's the abundance of Dark Cloud Dispersion that follows Obama everywhere, and the leveling of seas and the cooling of the polar ice-caps when he needs it. Or their warming, as need be. Obama's rainbows make it easy for me to practice the Om Mane Padme Hum of Obama-Life and chant quietly, "See, Say Pwethay!"

Above that, there is the rational feminine pulchritude and the response of women at Obama's rallies and speeches, who logically insist that their hearts go pitty-pat and their thighs tingle. Its a level-headed, passionate and unrehearsed reaction to Obama's Plans for Hopeful Change. Hopeful women hear his plans and then realize they must change, their knickers and all, twisted or knot!

Better than that is Obama's effect on the sharp, hard-boiled reporters of our nations media. They grin and blush and ask Obama questions that Obama can answer without taking his eyes from the teleprompter! This is amazing! These brave, level-headed men and women KNOW HOW TO ASK the tough questions Americans need to make an informed decision, and by golly, those journalists and reporters KNOW the questions that need asking! And if they ask, Obama shifts gears and reminds them that 'we can CHANGE!' The reporters KNOW to avoid asking questions that might reflect poorly on Obama's principles, his vision or his cognitive ability. We must be Perfectly Clear, hey?

Further up the list is Obama's outreach to America in words such as 'never', 'the worst' and 'the most'... He has a knack for verbal spin, each little phrase a gyroscope toddling along a thread of not-really-Marxist better-than-Marxist social justice, which Obama and Michelle will impose on us for our own good, all ten years of his presidency. Or nine, whatever, but I never need to doubt that Obama is the one to 'fix' these 'worst' problems, Obama is the one Hillary's waiting for in Denver.

Just below middle on this list of attributes and characteristics that make Obama a force to be reckoned with is his ability to spend 20 years in a racist, 'black' theology church with an obviously hateful, bitter white man pretending to be black while he shouts 'God DAMN America!' and yet Obama WAS NOT INFLUENCED even a little bit. Honest. And Obama's life-long, unreconstructed bomb-using anti-American friends? Wow, what a guy! He supports ACORN without being a nut!

Just above middle in my list of things I'm trying to support in Obama is Michelle, his wife. Golly, she is a real piece of stuff, isn't she?

“Barack Obama will require you to work. He is going to demand that you shed your cynicism. That you put down your divisions. That you come out of your isolation, that you move out of your comfort zones. That you push yourselves to be better. And that you engage. Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual, uninvolved, uninformed.”

I mean, there it is, right? Michelle has figured it all out, seen that all of us are 'uninformed, uninvolved'; she saw right through 280 million American adults' hypocritical denial and phony productivity and self-reliant personal responsibility and she's going to be sure Obama DEMANDS and REQUIRES us to get with his program! Or else!

A few positions from the GREATEST THING about Obama on my list, is Obama's assurance and virtual assumption of the American presidency already! Holy mackerel, Obama is practicing positive imaging, and he uses that fake 'presidential seal' and Obama's dismissive non-pledge of allegiance and revisionist change of American protocol even BEFORE being elected, that lets him NOT place his hand on his heart and NOT recite the Pledge, because 'everyone KNOWS' Obama is a good citizen, and can change America hopefully, even when lesser creatures sneer that 'Change and Hope is NOT a plan!'

Near the top of this list is Obama's removal of the American flag, Old Glory, from the tail of his campaign airplane! Hey, that is DECISIVE, and classy! Better than Old Glory is the Big Red O, now on the tail. Let the 'Story of O' begin! Obama is bigger and MUCH MORE IMPORTANT than America, can't you SEE?

Just below the number one position on this list of Obama's good points is his refusal to waste time visiting American troops in Germany. That is just, well, words fail me when I try to find descriptions of how much this should rock America's complacency! Obama didn't want to frustrate or upset those wounded troops by telling them of his "End the War in Iraq No Matter What!" plan to withdraw troops on a timetable known to all the world. Obama knows that some of those small-minded losers who enlisted because they had no other options would probably have knee-jerk reactions against such a bold appeasement, so he decisively avoided the whole problem. Obama will continue in this strong, bold manner in his role as Commander-in-Chief-Executive.

And the number one positive attribute is Obama's ability to speak the foreign language of the Muslims, taqqiyeh, the forked-tongue language noted by Native Americans as 'politician-speak'. Other politicians speak evasively on things like national security, top secrets and critical national defense, but Obama has the demonstrated ability to lie convincingly about, well, nearly everything.

These are Obama's good points. I'm studying ways to let everyone I know hear of these. America should KNOW before making that November Decision, eh?

More Courageous Than the New York Times!

The full text of McCain's opinion piece rebutting Obama's New York Times op-ed:

In January 2007, when General David Petraeus took command in Iraq, he called the situation “hard” but not “hopeless.” Today, 18 months later, violence has fallen by up to 80% to the lowest levels in four years, and Sunni and Shiite terrorists are reeling from a string of defeats. The situation now is full of hope, but considerable hard work remains to consolidate our fragile gains.

Progress has been due primarily to an increase in the number of troops and a change in their strategy. I was an early advocate of the surge at a time when it had few supporters in Washington. Senator Barack Obama was an equally vocal opponent. "I am not persuaded that 20,000 additional troops in Iraq is going to solve the sectarian violence there,” he said on January 10, 2007. “In fact, I think it will do the reverse."

Now Senator Obama has been forced to acknowledge that “our troops have performed brilliantly in lowering the level of violence.” But he still denies that any political progress has resulted.

Perhaps he is unaware that the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad has recently certified that, as one news article put it, “Iraq has met all but three of 18 original benchmarks set by Congress last year to measure security, political and economic progress.” Even more heartening has been progress that’s not measured by the benchmarks. More than 90,000 Iraqis, many of them Sunnis who once fought against the government, have signed up as Sons of Iraq to fight against the terrorists. Nor do they measure Prime Minister Nouri al Maliki’s new-found willingness to crack down on Shiite extremists in Basra and Sadr City—actions that have done much to dispel suspicions of sectarianism.

The success of the surge has not changed Senator Obama’s determination to pull out all of our combat troops. All that has changed is his rationale. In a New York Times op-ed and a speech this week, he offered his “plan for Iraq” in advance of his first “fact finding” trip to that country in more than three years. It consisted of the same old proposal to pull all of our troops out within 16 months. In 2007 he wanted to withdraw because he thought the war was lost. If we had taken his advice, it would have been. Now he wants to withdraw because he thinks Iraqis no longer need our assistance.

To make this point, he mangles the evidence. He makes it sound as if Prime Minister Maliki has endorsed the Obama timetable, when all he has said is that he would like a plan for the eventual withdrawal of U.S. troops at some unspecified point in the future.

Senator Obama is also misleading on the Iraqi military's readiness. The Iraqi Army will be equipped and trained by the middle of next year, but this does not, as Senator Obama suggests, mean that they will then be ready to secure their country without a good deal of help. The Iraqi Air Force, for one, still lags behind, and no modern army can operate without air cover. The Iraqis are also still learning how to conduct planning, logistics, command and control, communications, and other complicated functions needed to support frontline troops.

No one favors a permanent U.S. presence, as Senator Obama charges. A partial withdrawal has already occurred with the departure of five “surge” brigades, and more withdrawals can take place as the security situation improves. As we draw down in Iraq, we can beef up our presence on other battlefields, such as Afghanistan, without fear of leaving a failed state behind. I have said that I expect to welcome home most of our troops from Iraq by the end of my first term in office, in 2013.

But I have also said that any draw-downs must be based on a realistic assessment of conditions on the ground, not on an artificial timetable crafted for domestic political reasons. This is the crux of my disagreement with Senator Obama.

Senator Obama has said that he would consult our commanders on the ground and Iraqi leaders, but he did no such thing before releasing his “plan for Iraq.” Perhaps that’s because he doesn’t want to hear what they have to say. During the course of eight visits to Iraq, I have heard many times from our troops what Major General Jeffrey Hammond, commander of coalition forces in Baghdad, recently said: that leaving based on a timetable would be “very dangerous.”

The danger is that extremists supported by Al Qaeda and Iran could stage a comeback, as they have in the past when we’ve had too few troops in Iraq. Senator Obama seems to have learned nothing from recent history. I find it ironic that he is emulating the worst mistake of the Bush administration by waving the “Mission Accomplished” banner prematurely.

I am also dismayed that he never talks about winning the war—only of ending it. But if we don’t win the war, our enemies will. A triumph for the terrorists would be a disaster for us. That is something I will not allow to happen as president. Instead I will continue implementing a proven counterinsurgency strategy not only in Iraq but also in Afghanistan with the goal of creating stable, secure, self-sustaining democratic allies.

Hussein, Can You See?

Hussein, Can You See?

Hussein, can you see, to the media's delight
o'er the rambling bad talk
they're so callously skimming?

Missing swipes and light scars,
pitching softly-sweet lobs
Seeing nothing but good
in your um, ah, ad libbing?

And deep pockets drained bare
Jesse cutting your pair
Give proof through the fog
that you're simply NOT THERE!

Oy vey! Does your star-strangled
rhetoric yet stave
off the criticisms of the right
and the moans of the brave?
