There is always one simple fault that all global megalomaniacs and community bullies have. They never understand that there is always someone out there that is faster, better and more ruthless than they are.

 

Let us believe that the one who is faster has goodness in his heart for all people on Earth.

 

History has proven that to be true. If, not, civilization would never have progressed this far. Look around us………….most people live a better life than their parents did and far better than their great-great grand parents did. Civilization progresses, not because of politicians, but in spite of politicians.

 

We can win this one. These new guys on The New World Order block, the sons and grandsons of the 1930s traitors, don’t have the brains or the guts to pull it off. All they will do, if not stopped, is cause massive destruction. But we need help on this one. And we need to work together, regardless of nationality. We should know soon what all these cross-nationality military meetings are about. Hopefully, they will destroy these international gangsters who hide behind religion and call themselves politicians.

Who would have thought that the continent inhabited by Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and Andrew Jackson would turn into such a sniveling, spoiled, politically correct, spine incontinent, needy stepchild of King George the 8Th, this land of Daniel Boone, the Alamo, Pearl Harbor and the great westward migration.

 

A land founded upon rugged individualism, entrepreneurial activism, great inventions and freedom; this country born by patriots, strong and devout men, rigid morals and love of God. A place where country placed ahead of self and self interest. A continent rigidly clinging to the American neighborhood from coast to coast.

 

The one nation not afraid of its government but having the government afraid of its people. The one peoples not dependent upon government but constantly in avoidance of it. The nation most responsible for spreading freedom throughout the world. Home of those brave souls whom told a powerful King, “No More.”

 

And yet, on November fourth, 2008, this great land surrendered its constitution, its freedoms and its sovereignty for the treasure promised to the forty seven million of Americans choosing to abide the transference of wealth along with twenty million useful idiots. Read article.

I wonder how long it will take for Americans to figure out what they have done to themselves. I think the first hint is going to be the day they turn on the car radio and can't find anything except "How to Live Green" shows and holistic health tips.

 

The "Fairness" Doctrine is coming. This is how it will effect your life: you will still be able to watch all of the thrill up my leg MSM stations. You'll still get all the fair and balanced news Keith Olbermann has time to bring to you. (And he's going to have lots of time, because anyone who would inspire one of his psycho rants will have been long since removed from the national radar.) But in the name of "fairness" you will not be able to hear an opposing view. If Dear Leader Barack Obama doesn't approve of it, you won't be hearing it.

 

Here's how it works: the "Fairness" Doctrine says a radio station owner has to follow up an hour of Rush with an hour of ... I don't know. Name one of those Air America guys who couldn't pay their own relatives enough to listen to their shows. For the owner of the radio station, this means that for every hour of Rush he airs, he has to air one hour of stuff the Rush audience (or anyone else) won't listen to. Read article.

Although I have not always been the most outspoken advocate of President-Elect Barack Obama, today I would like to congratulate him and add my voice to the millions of fellow citizens who are celebrating his historic and frightening election victory. I don't care whether you are a conservative or a liberal -- when you saw this inspiring young African-American rise to our nation's highest office I hope you felt the same sense of patriotic pride that I experienced, no matter how hard you were hyperventilating with deep existential dread.  

 

Yes, I know there are probably other African-Americans much better qualified and prepared for the presidency. Much, much better qualified. Hundreds, easily, if not thousands, and without any troubling ties to radical lunatics and Chicago mobsters. Gary Coleman comes to mind.

 

The huge outpouring of international support following the election shows that America can still win new friendships while rebuilding its old ones, and provides Mr. Obama with unprecedented diplomatic leverage over our remaining enemies. When Russian tanks start pouring into eastern Europe and Iranian missiles begin raining down on Jerusalem, their leaders will know they will be facing a man who not only conquered America's racial divide but the hearts of the entire Cannes film community.

President-elect Barack Obama began preparing months ago for his transition. To critics, he was considered presumptuous -- one more glimpse into the "political" gamesmanship of the then nominee.

 

A lot can be said for the art of graciousness, especially in politics. Consider the transition process itself. Having the infrastructure and necessary procedures in place to ensure a smooth turnover by the next commander-in-chief can speak volumes about character and dignity. It wasn't a lesson Bill Clinton learned.

 

When Mr. Clinton handed over the reins to George W. Bush in 2000, it wasn't the best environment from the start. The election decision was a month late (hanging chads ring a bell?), and the General Services Administration handed the Bush team another setback when it refused to allow transition funding until there was a clear winner in the presidential contest. Afterward, chaos ensued when the Clinton administration vandalized offices by removing all the "W" keys from computer keyboards, cutting wiring and taking official government signs.

 

There have been no signs of such disrespect this time around. In fact, the complete opposite is occurring. The Bush administration issued an executive order weeks ago, charging the Transition Coordinating Council with oversight of the process. Read article.

 

Labor Wants Obama to Take on Big Fight

Kris Maher, OnlineWSJ.com

 

Organized labor sees a historic opportunity with Tuesday's election and is counting on the incoming Obama administration to back its agenda in what promises to be a landmark battle with business.

 

At the top of labor's wish list is passage of the Employee Free Choice Act, which would make it harder for companies to fight union-organizing drives. "It is the most important issue that we have," said John Sweeney, president of the AFL-CIO.

 

President-elect Barack Obama has promised to fight for the legislation, but whether it is introduced in the first 100 days of his administration could signal how strongly he is aligning himself with the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, say political consultants. Moderate Democrats and those who have just won seats in traditionally Republican states are expected to argue against making the legislation an early priority.

 

Unions failed to get major labor legislation passed under the Carter and Clinton administrations, and union membership has declined to 7.5% of private-sector workers, from about 20% in 1980, according to U.S. Labor Department data.

 

After unions spent more than $400 million on the election and mounted massive voter-turnout efforts for Mr. Obama, they're inclined to push for bringing the Employee Free Choice Act up for a vote early next year, believing they have a narrow window to get it passed. Read article.

If someone had told me last year that, come the fall of 2008, I would be praying for John McCain to become the next president of the United States, I would have had three words for him – seek psychiatric help. (McCain is my kind of Republican the way “rap” is my kind of music.)

 

Now that the worst has happened, the blame game begins.

 

Some will fault the leftist media, which lost any sense of balance and objectivity and practically panted over the Kenyan-American.

 

Others will point to the huge disparity in fundraising. Obama outspent McCain by nearly three to one. Still, if it was only about money, John Forbes Kerry – who’s married to Ft. Knox – would have won the 2004 campaign. As a friend put it, “McCain failed to raise the money to project the message he didn’t have.”

 

There are those who will attribute McCain’s defeat to the unpopularity of outgoing President George W. Bush, or the financial meltdown for which Republicans unfairly took the fall, or the fact that only once in the post-war era has a two-term president been succeeded by a member of his party.

 

It also didn’t help that McCain resembled Methuselah’s grandfather, as presented by Madame Tussaud's. We live in an age of image where how you look matters more than what you believe or what you’ve done.

 

But, in the final analysis, Republicans lost because they nominated their weakest candidate. And McCain lost because he’s McCain. Read article.

The Democrat nomenklatura ---particularly through its loudmouth, the “mainstream” media, plus one or two idiotic “conservative” pundits--- are blanketing us now with the mantras that we all should show “unity around ‘our’ new president,” that we express “graciousness toward [Barack Hussein] Obama,” and other blather.

 

Of course, RINOs and “moderate” Republicans will heed and march in lockstep, but conscious conservatives and true Republicans, for sure, consider those duplicitous calls as German Jews must have considered similar calls after Hitler grabbed the Chancellery.

 

The German Jews had by then browsed through “Mein Kempf”; we, conservatives, have browsed through “Dreams of my Father” and “The Audacity of Hope”.

 

No, we conservatives are not that stupid, that suicidal.

 

Then, they don’t stop swooning at the election to the Presidency of a black, when the gist here is not whether the color of the fellow’s skin is black, white, yellow, brown, purple, magenta, cyan or any other color.

 

The essence resides in the principles that Barack Hussein Obama subscribes to.

 

They are attempting to sweep under the rug of the color of his skin the great and very valid questions about him that remain unanswered: what role will play in his presidency the “guidance” he received from the “teachings” of Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin, Frank Marshall Davis, James Cone, Saul Alinsky, Louis Farrakhan, Jeremiah Wright and Michael Pfleger? What is going to happen to the plausible allegations of his place of birth and true nationality? What will the Rashid Khaliditapes reveal? Did he lie about his true religion? What about his association with Tony Rezko? What about the allegations of fraudulent foreign contributions to his campaign? What role the Nation of Islam, The Black Panthers, ACORN and other extreme left and racist joints will play in his presidency? Read article.

Again and again during the campaign, Barack Obama supporters pointed to his campaign and its smooth operation as evidence of his fitness and capacity not just to be President, but to be an excellent one. We’ll see if they were right. Lots of good campaigners–Jimmy Carter in 1976 comes to mind–turned out to be perfectly horrid Presidents.

 

That said, I think it’s fair to admit that the qualities displayed by John McCain during the race would have been, at the very least, quite problematic for a President. The better Presidents tend to have a large vision of where they want to go. Effective Presidents generally inspire loyalty, keep in-fighting to a minimum, resist wild swings in policy and tactics, and are persuasive communicators. None of these qualities came through during the McCain campaign. Read article.

The cyclical nature of human wisdom is well documented in both secular histories, and the biblical record. Blessing, Discontent, Rebellion, Suffering, Penitence, Restoration. Wash, rinse, repeat. As ancient Israel whined to have monarchs rule over them to be like their pagan neighbors, so too are American leftists smitten with the illusory sophistication of the crumbling European economic and social models. They salivate for the esteem of tyrants, socialists, and every manner of grandiose failure; the more extravagant, the better so long as the mission statement is sufficiently lofty.

 

It's said that liberals are like any other people; only more so. In this case, it's their turn to perpetuate the ancient cycle of rejecting what works, turning their backs with disdain on America's incomparable blessings and crying "Give us what they have!"

 

Well, we've gotten it.

 

In a receding economy and aided by a political monopoly, President Obama is going to prove unable to resist his fetish for increased taxation and eco-regulatory strangulation. In a dangerous time, his vanity will lead him to grant legitimacy to nations that wish America ill. When an Obama presidency with majorities in the House and Senate ends in economic calamity, emboldened international foes, or both -- as history wearily tells us it must -- then the healing can begin.

Already Barack Obama's fol lowers are planning a mas sive blowout inaugural party worthy of a king who smashed all records in American political campaigning.

 

The poshest hotels along Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington are sold out to those wanting to witness history, and to party-seekers looking for a good time, after nearly a decade of the buttoned-down Bushes.

 

If past events are any indication, DC will be thronged with hundreds of thousands of swooning and ecstatic Obama supporters for the biggest and best inaugural celebration in the history of democracy.

 

Take that, Clintons.

 

But when people are losing their homes, businesses are going under and retirement funds are evaporating, it's no time to party.

 

Now is time for Barack Obama to put away his Greek columns.

 

After running the most brilliant and disciplined campaign in recent times, Obama cruised to easy victory.

 

He ran as a rock star, crushing all records for raising campaign cash, attracting crowds and signing up new voters.

 

His oratory brings people to their feet and tears to their eyes. But this great and deserved victory was built around vague promises of "hope" and "change."

 

The final Gallup Poll before voting began found that 35 percent of Obama voters supported him because he represented change. Only 2 percent said they supported him because of his experience or qualifications.

 

"We are finally going to see what change means," said one top Republican in Washington preparing for the massive policy battles to come. Read article.

 

Review & Outlook, Online WSJ.com

 

Love Sarah Palin or hate her -- and there seems to be little in between -- the Alaska Governor has become a national political figure. She could have a big political future, assuming she and the many Republicans now trashing her learn something from their recent misadventures.

 

Last August we advised John McCain not to select a relative unknown like Mrs. Palin, in part because we remember the way Dan Quayle was treated. The media haze GOP candidates in a way they never do Democrats. (See Joe Biden, unreported gaffes of.) Any national-campaign novice was bound to be chewed up. Mr. McCain nonetheless decided to take one of his celebrated leaps off the high bar. (Our track record this campaign was perfect: If we proposed it, Mr. McCain did the opposite.)

 

In the event, Mrs. Palin's contribution to the McCain ticket was mixed. Her bravura convention speech defied the early media mockery and made her an instant hero among rank-and-file Republicans. Her reform credentials and social conservatism inspired a GOP base that was angry with its wayward party and wary of Mr. McCain. The exit polls show that conservative turnout was strong, and Mrs. Palin deserves some credit for that. Read article.

Some time ago I speculated in one of my columns that due to the extremely poor presidential campaign Republican McCain was waging that he was actually supporting Barack Hussein Obama. I am now convinced of it. McCain has long been a liberal and a Democrat-sympathizer. It now appears that his campaign staff was also leftist-leaning. And from some if its members recent trashing of Republican Alaskan Governor and VP candidate Sarah Palin, it appears that they were—along with their patently awful campaign—rooting for Obama, too!

 

The only remarkable, interesting and exciting Republican candidate running for the Executive Branch of government was Sarah Palin. So, in order to ensure she never runs for any national office again, liberals must destroy her. The nasty rumors and innuendo that the leftist Obama campaign began against Palin while she was running against Obama—yes, she was running against Obama more than was McCain—have been picked up and are now being used by the liberal former McCain workers. This is unprecedented smearing by the Republican POTUS candidate’s own campaign! Note: Due to McCain’s refusals to fight his opposition and the relatively milquetoast McCain campaign, I am also now convinced that his campaign workers were and/or are actually on Obama’s payroll.
