Obama Takes Washington
Thank you Sean and Maxine…..
The Washington that Obama took? It resides above Oregon. You knew the “r” word would have to be used at some point to describe the Obama win. For more on the rout, check in here.
Words to Sleep On
As we take on the challenges, we must be guided by the philosophy that has brought us success. Our policies are working. The American people support our points of view. They share our philosophy……..We’ve had good debates and soon we’ll have a nominee who will carry a conservative banner into this election and beyond. Listen, the stakes in November are high. This is an important election. Prosperity and peace are in the balance. So with confidence in our vision and faith in our values, let us go forward, fight for victory, and keep the White House in 2008.
George W Bush, to the Conservative Political Action Conference….
The people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders…tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger.
Herman Goering, from his Nuremberg cell…
Attention Moderate Republicans
You have been lied to and played for fools. Not unlike your Democratic voting cousins! Some of you may not be aware of the three branches that make up our governmental tree. These branches are the Legislative, Executive and Judicial. Think of the people who inhabit these branches as your employees. Now, how have these employees of ours been performing?
Apparently the memo of understanding that clearly lined out their job descriptions, was simultaneously lost with several White House emails. Interesting…..
For those of you who have no idea what any of this means, or just don’t care. I give you.. Breaking News! (the rest of you, continue on).
Anyway, for the hundreds of millions of moderate Americans of both parties, Independents, Commies and Green Party-ers (party on!), I give you more reason to pause. Then you may act.
Reason #1, Signing Statements for permanent U.S. military bases in Iraq and other stupidity.
Reason #2, Nu-kleer Prolipherikaationism. Better known as Nuclear Proliferation.
Reason #3, Cash Money!
Reason #3a, Can Democrats play too? Yes!
Reason #4, A reoccurring theme….Democrats
Reason #5, Dancing Clowns who don’t like surprises.
Reason #6, The Hippocratic Oath?
Left, right or even the slightly boring moderate middle of the political landscape, we are all being played. All of you, get in touch with your “employees”. Remind them who it is they work for. Fill them in on the downsizing decision we have made.
Have at it employers!
Lockstep
We just keep marching along….
Hey! I hear Wal-mart is lowering prices in an effort to keep us cash strapped Americans “excited about shopping”. True patriots they are. God bless you Walton family.
In other news….watch for more denial, lies and misdirection…Philip Zelikow is the next contestant in Bush’s war on our freedoms. Shop America….shop.
How many Iraqi civilians do YOU think have died due to our invasion? It’s more than you think. Freedom. You’re welcome Iraq! Low low Wal-Mart prices! Get excited America!
Shop on American Shopper. Support the troops , slap another yellow sticker of support on your car.
State of the Union, the Real Rebuttal
This is for those of you who watched and or listened to the SOTU speech tonight and then were treated to the milk toast Democratic response. Wow. On both counts…..
Now for the real rebuttal. (enjoy the accompanying links!)
So much rebuttal opportunity, so precious little Democratic spine.
“Stormin” Norman Dicks
Yesterday, “Stormin” Norman Dicks traveled to the furthest reaches of his district to attend another pet project for National Parks. Norm was at a ground breaking ceremony for a water treatment plant on the Elwha River, which is part of a much larger project to remove Dams on the river and provide drinking water for Port Angeles .
This project has been in the ongoing stages since 1992. Costs have risen a bit and at this breakneck speed, Norm will have to be in office another 15 years or so to see this project through. So 45 years of Norm Dicks? That’s good for National Parks. Thats good for the Defense Industry and that little agency we like to call the Department of Defense.
Congressman Dicks had some things to say at the ceremony. He praised President Bush for his support. He also warned that residents should appreciate the governments significant investment in this drinking water venture. Norm went on to say something about funding and more funding and how he hopes that we pay attention to the science….when something just snapped in Congressman Dicks.
Norm became red faced, his eyes squinted in apparent overwhelming anger….and he then began to shout at the gathered “press” and dignitaries. Norm began to berate the president and his administration for their failure to build water treatment plants in Iraq. Congressman Dicks screamed with red faced indignation at the press that they were not doing their jobs. “Why”, he asked, are you guys not covering the Sibel Edmonds story? Where is your outrage he ranted? In my district alone, we have spent over $973 million dollars in this fake terror war, as OUR country slides into financial ruin. While you people sit here and fret over another lousy Seahawks season, Dick Cheney is pushing legislation to spy on all Americans, NATO is selling first strike nuclear war, I get billions of dollars of pork for Naval Base Kitsap, F.t. Lewis and Boeing…..! Peninsula Daily News….wake the fuck up!
Norm’s aides finally jumped in and removed the distraught Congressman. A man can only take so much!
OK. I made some parts of that up. For we know, constituent representation is the furthest thing from “Stormin” Norman Dicks mind. But it sure could have been a great way for Norm to end his trip to Port Angeles…..
Say hi to Rep. Kucinich for me, thanks Norm.
Spokane. The Agent of Change
Change. It appears that change is indeed occurring. This change has nothing to do with the bickering “agents of change” Barack or Hilliary. Nothing personal guys, but the real agent of change would in my professional opinion have to be, The Pacific Northwest Inlander.
Sure the paper has been there awhile now. But after reading Ted’s article today, it was clear. Spokane is no longer the hot bed of rabid conservative support that Dino Rossi had heard it was. This of course will be news to Dino, the Cowles family and “business as usual” former SR Editor, Chris Peck .
Your welcome Spokane!
