Good to see 3 days in, nothing has changed. My, my.

The headline in Drudge of ” That’s no way to treat a Kennedy ” is confusing. Did someone insult the famous lady? Did someone make accusations about her? It’s difficult to tell, but it appears that the “horrible” thing done to Caroline is that the governor was NOT going to name her as the next Senator from New York.
To me, that sounds not only fair since she was totally unqualified, but also wise. It is long past time where the Kennedy name should give automatic entrance to whatever they demand. Yes, John F. Kennedy was once our President and yes, he was assasinated. But, others have lost their father or mother, and no one is giving them a senate seat.
However, the true irony iof this accusation is that some feel that Kennedy was treated poorly merely because she was rejected. Well, how does that correspond to Pelosi saying that she “feels as though a 10# weight was lifted off me when President Bush left town.” How does that compare to all the names that Senator Reid and Kennedy and Schurmer and all those vociferous Democrats called our last President?
Obviously, it doesn’t. Democrats bemoan the loss of good manners in politics, but the loss is directly attributable to them! If they don’t like something, they label it and then call it a name….honest discussion of disagreements is anathema to them. They say that time heals all wounds, but I can hardly wait until the public tires of their bad manners and their own words become the two-edged sword that cuts them out of public life.
Lindsay Graham was once a respected representative when he was one of the forces behind the impeachment of former President Clinton. At the time, he railed against the immorality of Bill’s actions while in the White House. Of course, more than immoral, Clinton’s sexual harassment of an employee was a Federal crime, but, hey, let’s ignore that! Washington, D.C. did.
How the times change. With the new administration installed, Lindsay now calls Bill’s wife, Senator Clinton, one of the most knowledgable and capable people to be Secretary of State. Wow! From accusations about her White Water dealings that were derailed by political forces to suspicions of being involved in the death of Vince Foster to stealing silverware — another criminal act that was hidden “under the table” — now she is suddenly a hot commodity. And, Lindsay is right there on her team.
Politics makes me sick. Almost all of those in Washington, D.C., are not there to serve the American public, but to enhance their own prospects of fame and fortune. Lindsay Graham is such a man. I have lost all respect for this Senator Graham. He is one of the new, and many, opportunists in Washington, D.C.
My husband who is a CEO has always said that you can work with someone disagreeable and yet not be disagreeable yourself. Too bad the Democrats never learned that lesson. They have spent the last 8 years attacking former President Bush and, in the process, destroying the civility that held our diverse opinions together.
Because it was politically correct, they criticized the Iraq war which they had helped fund and had voted for. They criticized the response to 911 despite their eagerness to fight terrorism right after the disaster. But, most of all, their verbal attacks on former President Bush set a new, rock-bottom standard for incivility.
Rather than honor the office of the President of the United States, they called names. Rather than discuss issues where they disagreed with the President, they told lies to the Press who were just as eager to promote these lies. In short, they spread as many negative comments as they could. They were totally without principles and barbaric in their attacks!
Today’s inauguration of Obama, though, illustrated how completely undignified and how rude this “new” bunch can be. Reportedly, some in the audience cat-called at both VP Cheney and President Bush. They made rude gestures, unsuited for such a dignified occassion. In short, they lived up — or down — to their reputation.
The aftermath of this uncouthness will fall on Obama and it will be interesting to see how President Obama is treated. If the opposition treats him as poorly as the Democrats treated President Bush, and all conservatives, America will stagnate. There will be no compromise….no diplomacy….and no good will toward anyone or any issue. Instead of moving forward, we will move backwards.
The legacy of the Democratic party is leading toward the uncivilizing of America!
7 things to do to help Obama? These are all things we should have been doing all along, not just now, to help OURSELVES. But, LIEberals assume that Obama will make everything perfect and hunky-dory. It’s so sad that some of these idiots who voted for him are stupider than a box of rocks and assume everything will work out now that Obama is in office.
Jesus hippies, get a job, work hard, and amazingly, you are usually rewarded with a good life. Unless, of course, you work too hard and make too much money. Well… then you are taxed (read penalized) for making too much. Ugh, idiots.

Someone posted on Facebook that today is the MOST important day in history.
So today is more important than the Declaration of Independence, end of slavery, removal of Hitler, the right for women to vote, end of segregation… just to name a few. I mean, how bat-sh*t have these people gotten? Yes, I’ll admit the fact that a half black man being inaugurated is pretty historical in the essence that he is the first, but, that doesn’t mean this is the most important day in history. Without three of the five things I mentioned above would this have ever happened. Had we not declared independence, ended slavery and segregation, Obama would have no chance for this to even be considered historical.

Obama’s inauguration is expected to be close to $150 million. So in these tough economic times, it’s ok to waste away that money? Why not put that towards education or clothing for the poor? That’s right, they want my tax money to do that, their’s can go towards parties and concerts.
The shocker? Four years ago, they told Bush to keep his low-key. Sorry, that’s not a shocker, that’s expected from these liars and cheats.

Per previous posts, here, here and here.
It’s just ridiculous to assume we, as humans, can change Earth’s climate. The fact that the Earth has gone through it’s own heating and cooling periods without us is proof that we are just a small part of the entire eco-system.
Let’s wait a few years before Obama and the LIEberals start saying we caused global cooling, and claim the Republicans are ignorant for not seeing all the effects.

Credible sources say that, once again, Iran is attempting to buy weaponry-–this time from China — to build a nuclear warhead! Why is that news to anyone! After all, how long has Iran been shopping around in the world trying to buy weapons’ technology? First, Russia helped them and now they look to China.
The weirdest aspect of this news is that some will still pretend to be surprised at it! Democrats will probably have a moment of epiphany and try to say that they didn’t know how bad Iran actually was! History shows us, though, that they have been facilitating Iran’s noncompliance for years with the lingo that “Iran won’t deal with Bush”. Or, another gem was, “Once we are in control, Iran will toe the line!” Or some tried diversionary tactics, such as the comment of, “Bush is fighting the war in the wrong place. Afghanistan is the real point of conflict!” They gave Iran ready-made excuses for not complying with any civilized nation’s requests and it is the Democrats who will be responsible if Iran becomes a nuclear menace.
The irony is that, as a theocracy, Iran promotes itself as a very religious country. Yet, they are among the worst offenders of human rights. We are a democracy and yet we strive to promote human rights throughout the world. Unfortunately, the Democrats have been so eager to win the White House, that they forgot who was the “good guy” in the world! Now,the future remains in their hands. The question is: “Will the next administration be able to handle Iran?”
Well, here’s their big chance. Today, Iran does not yet have nuclear weapon capabilities. After the Democrats take control, will Iran have nuclear weapons “tomorrow”?
