CRUISIN’ & MUSIN’

MAKE MINE YELLOW OR RED
Little Miss Attila has figured out why Obama seems so confused about Afghanistan.

“Unfortunately, When They Said Afghanistan . . . Obama thought they were discussing a crocheted blanket draped over the back of the couch.”

SCARY LOOKING TERRORIST
Yousef al-Shihri, a former Gitmo detainee and now a member of al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula.

What is even more scary is that Obama and his Moonbat followers want to turn more of these guys loose, or move them to the US. Are we so thrilled that we are one step closer to making the Demwits dream, of letting all the terrorists free, come true?

BLAME GAME
Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid, is blaming the Republicans for blocking the passage of his Medicare measure that would have prevented a 20% drop in reimbursement rates for physicians. “I want everyone within the sound of my voice to understand that Washington is being driven by a small number of people on that side of the aisle that are preventing us from doing things that help the American people,” Reid said.

He made no mention of the 13 Democrats who sided with Republicans with statements of concern over ballooning deficits and budget overruns, nor that the Medicare measure failed to get even a simple majority of senators.

Do all Democrats have some kind of demwit gene that makes them look for someone to blame whenever they don’t get their way?

PRUDE OR PERVERT?
Eric Williamson faces an indecent exposure charge after a passerby saw him in the buff in his own home making coffee.  It happened at 5:30 a.m. Monday. The woman and 7-year-old boy who saw him naked apparently had cut through Williamson’s front yard from a nearby path. Williamson, 29, says he didn’t know anyone could see him while he was in the kitchen fixing a cup of coffee.

I can understand someone not wanting their young children to be exposed to nude strangers, but to file charges against a nekkid guy chilling out in his kitchen that she would not have even seen if she wasn’t trespassing on private property and looking into a stranger’s window? What is wrong with this picture?

OBAMA THE MASTER PRESTIDIGITATOR
The majority opinion concerning Obama’s purpose in picking a fight with Fox is that Team Obama is taking a page from Saul Alinsky’s manifesto Rules for Radicals. Alinksy, a left-wing community organizer and author, advised his acolytes to “Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. In conflict tactics there are certain rules that [should be regarded] as universalities. One is that the opposition must be singled out as the target and ‘frozen.’ “

Glenn Beck and a few others are agreeing with me (even though they don’t know it since I am not on their radar.) I did a piece that makes the case that the war on Fox is a sleight-of-hand tactic that Obama the Master Prestidigitator is using to misdirect the country’s focus.  A number of other pundits are also following this logic so I am quite sure we are on target even if our guesses as to Obama’s purpose are different.

WAG THE DOG

Matt Lewis, in Politics Daily thinks this is a “wag-the-dog” circumstance. “In the now-classic 1997 political film “Wag the Dog,” the president’s spin-doctors advisers (played brilliantly by Robert De Niro and Dustin Hoffman) invent a bogus war with Albania in order to take the focus off a nascent sex scandal that could doom the president’s re-election. It works brilliantly, at least in Hollywood’s telling. In real life, dropping bombs on a pharmaceutical factory in Sudan and an empty terrorist camp in Afghanistan didn’t work as well for President Clinton. But political attack dogs are nothing if not derivative.

“Might Obama’s team have invented the “War on Fox” to distract liberals? It gives his base something to be happy about, even as they face concessions on health care and Afghanistan. Liberals who have been irritated by the news channel over the years can justify continued support of Obama by saying, “At least he stuck it to Fox!”

MOONBATS CAN BE SO FUNNY WHEN THEY ARE NOT BEING IRRITATING, ANNOYING OR DANGEROUS

ConWebBlog, (your New Media watchdog) is a Moonbat attempt at exposing the right side of the blogosphere. One huge scoop that had them wiggling and practically wetting their pants with pure esctacy. They caught WorldNetDaily in a huge headline error: “A 3-Letter Word — jobs!”

If they had bothered to read the commentary that was discussing where DC’s focus should be (one being jobs) they would have seen that WND was quoting then-candidate VP Biden who had used the line in an October 15, 2008 appearance in Athens, Ohio.

With the economy floundering, Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., told Ohio voters today that he and Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., would focus on one specific issue that Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., has neglected. 

“Look, John’s last-minute economic plan does nothing to tackle the number one job facing the middle class, and it happens to be, as Barack says, a three-letter word: jobs. J-O-B-S,” the Democratic veep nominee said at a morning rally in Athens.

Another, oh so funny, Moonbat site “Oliver Willis: Like Kryptonite To Stupid” gave WND his “Conz-Iz-Excellent-Spellerz” award. One of the commentators asked:

“Now that we all know World Net Daily was in fact mocking Biden’s gaffe….
1) Do they still get a Win? Or does it revert to Biden?
2) Or to anyone who couldn’t figure it out by reading the article beyond the headline?
3) Or do we get all huffy and defensive and explain that mocking and derision over an inability to count letters is unacceptable when it’s a decent non-conservative getting mocked?”

Until next time I hit the superhighway to cruise for the wild, wonderful, whacked out and WTH sites on the WWW.
