Van Jones Cheering 9/11 Terrorists On 9/12

Via Jim Hoft who has more about the video.



I'm about halfway through watching the video right now. There's some sort of hippie chant and drum circle going on through out the clip. Enough to make you want to poke your eardrums out with an icepick. And it goes on throughout the entire clip.

This was the guy Barack put in place as the 'Green Job Czar' until Jones quit. It's not what Barack says but who he nominates to positions of power or prestige which should tell you about Obama's character.

"That's A Nice Business You Have There, It Would Be A Shame If Anything Should Happen To It"

Via Da Tech Guy, who has a pretty good posting that asks are the Republicans really in trouble?

Legalized thuggery?

Members of Wisconsin State Employees Union, AFSCME Council 24, have begun circulating letters to businesses in southeast Wisconsin, asking them to support workers’ rights by putting up a sign in their windows.

If businesses fail to comply, the letter says, “Failure to do so will leave us no choice but (to) do a public boycott of your business. And sorry, neutral means 'no' to those who work for the largest employer in the area and are union members."

Jim Parrett, a field representative of Council 24 for Southeast Wisconsin, confirmed the contents of the letter, which carries his signature. But he added that the union was also circulating letters to businesses thanking them for supporting workers’ rights.

Parrett said that since the letters were sent out, he has received threatening phone calls as well as calls from people supporting the state workers.

"I've gotten a lot of threatening phone calls," Parrett said.

Parrett said he believed the letter campaign was going on in other parts of the state. His region includes Racine and Kenosha counties, as well as parts of Waukesha and Walworth counties.

“It’s going on in other parts of the state,” he said Wednesday.

Parrett referred questions to Marty Beil, the head of the Wisconsin State Employees Union. Beil was not immediately available for comment.

Nothing like a little intimidation to start the day off.

House Republicans Doing The Job They Were Sent To Do

No, not pass a real budget yet. Start investigations into special interest groups who stand to profit from ObamaCare.

AARP lobbied for the new health care law and now it stands to profit, Republican lawmakers charged Wednesday as they called for the IRS to investigate whether the powerful interest group representing older Americans should be stripped of its federal tax exemption.

Three veteran GOP representatives released a report that estimates the seniors lobby could make an additional $1 billion over 10 years on health insurance plans whose sales are expected to pick up under the new law. They also questioned seven-figure compensation for some AARP executives.

"Based on the available evidence, substantial questions remain about whether AARP should maintain its tax-exempt status," said the report, released by Reps. Wally Herger of California, Charles Boustany of Louisiana and Dave Reichert of Washington.

It's a start.

Why It's Difficult For Me To Take Many Of Today's Progressive "Feminists" Seriously

Because they take issue with the term, "Man Cave".

Props to my girl Erin for finding this gem at Home Depot – that’s right, the store is offering the “Top 10 Man Cave” paint colors, hence making the “no women allowed” den of sports, beer and manly brouhaha to escape the oppressive forces of their wives an official room of the hetero household…and to be painted bold, masculine colors.

Yes, because there is the word 'man' in the title, it automatically means 'no womyn allowed'.

I contend that if a woman can walk through her house and not see any evidence that a man lives there, then the house is clean.

Let the man have his cave.

Spring Officially Started A Week Ago

And I'm just now getting around to posting this.

They Told Me That If I Voted For John McCain That There Would Be An Escalation Of Undefined Wars Over Oil In The Middle East . . .

. . . And they were right!

Yeah, the headline. That's all I got.

More: By all indications, the rebels in Libya fighting against Kadaffy seem to be backed by Al-Qaeda and The Muslim Brotherhood. This is were you root for injuries rather than sides.

Update: Linked in the sidebar by P & P Blogging Factory and at The TrogloPundit. No alternative name based on a 90's hip hop group for him yet.

Apologies For The Blogging Absence

Have had quite a few balls up in the air and the blogging ball finally landed for a short while.

All it took was the bombing of Libya and Charlie Sheen going on a sold out tour.

I'm moving across town but there is no internet set up at the new place yet. Just at the old place.

Anyway, something occurred to me about the Democrats in Congress. Are they really Chessmasters?

I kept seeing people ask, "Why are the Democrats in Congress doubling down on stupid? Don't they realize that they will lose control of the House and maybe even the Senate?" last year, long before the election. Then the time came for Congress to pass a budget. Nothing. The can was kicked down the road.

Did the liberals/progressives in Congress see far enough into the future to realize that the Republicans would take over and they were purposefully leaving them a House in chaos? It seems like it now with the Continuing Resolutions going on. And with each Resolution being passed, Democrats can claim that Republicans have "cut too much" or some other crap like that. Knowing that if a budget or a CR isn't passed, a government shutdown would be likely. That would be the cudgel that the Democrats could use against the Republicans in the next election.

They passed ObamaCare, knowing it will cost them control in at least one-- if not both-- part of Congress so when the Republicans took over, they would be in a bind with the budget.

In all fairness, however, all it would take is one 'Chessmaster' on the liberal/progressive's side. All the rest of the Democrats are a collective mindset who would follow along like cows following along the Judas Goat at a slaughterhouse.

I know, I'm using at TV Trope as an example but I it was the best example I could thing of.
