Congressional ethics......from Rico
I was just reflecting upon the Democrat's 'promise' to provide the "most ethical Congress ever" when they began their pillaging of the average taxpayer.
Our current crop of corrupticrats is NOT the finest government money can buy, but it is bought-and-paid for.
This gallery (attached) could be Rangel, cold-cash Jefferson, Nancy Reid, or Harry Pelosi....well, it's an awfully long list of crooks, liars, thieves and scoundrels who have said one thing and done another so I won't list them all here...I think we have a pretty good idea predicated on the single-digit approval ratings of Congress.
- In all fairness, they do act with smugness, arrogance, and clueless ignorance as befits wretches that consider themselves America's uber-class and prance about like frivolous minor royalty.
It's time to bring back the venerable tradition of tar-and-feathers.
Christine O’Donnell — 'I Dabbled in Witchcraft'
Here's how Maureen Dowd describes Christine O'Donnell:
This anti-abortion, anti-masturbation, anti-premarital-sex, anti-stem-cells, anti-gay-marriage, dubious-about-evolution Christian conservative has rocked politics by snatching the Delaware Republican nomination for the Senate away from the seemingly sure-thing moderate Mike Castle.Interestingly, Dowd goes on to say "We the People in the Ruling Class Elites do think O’Donnell comes across as alarmingly loopy," and that O'Donnell "might have gone a broom too far, though, when she once told Bill Maher that she had 'dabbled into witchcraft” and went on a date with a witch that included “a midnight picnic on a satanic altar'."
Last week's NYT editorial page echoed Dowd's "Ruling Class Elites" sensibilities:
Republican leaders have to decide if they want the tiny fraction of furious voters who have showed up at the primary polls to steer them into the swamp for years ahead. They have a chance to repudiate the worst of the Tea Party crowd and show that they can govern without appealing to the basest political instincts.So now that Bill Maher is sewing the Scarlett Letter on O'Donnell, the editorial elites at the Times will no doubt soon look to issue their coup d'grâce. I seriously doubt that revelations of Christine O'Donnell's growing pains will have much impact on her electoral chances, especially in this political environment. She's already eccentric. She's already iconoclastic. And she's already scaring the holy guacamole out of the "Ruling Class Elites."
What's especially interesting is how the Wicca Tapes are further exposing the fault lines among right-wing bloggers after the blogosphere blowout before the primary. Both Patterico and Power Line are calling this the end of O'Donnell's career. Meanwhile, Dan Riehl and Jeff Goldstein are taking the long perspective. As Jeff notes:
O’Donnell may turn out to be a total loon. That’s not what I’m concerned about. Nor do I believe she is beyond criticism. What bothers me is the attitude about who is supporting these grass roots conservative candidates that is being made manifest by putative conservatives.I'd underline that point about "putative conservatives." Patterico and Power Line are over in Think Progress territory on this one, which means George Soros territory. I get a baby barf in my throat just thinking about that.

The Radical Assault on American Power
From my entry today, smashing the commie haters at Sadly No! ...
"Man, when you're subjected to a leftist death-wish campaign of this magnitude, you know you're really over the target!RTWT: "It's Hard Out There: The Radical Assault on American Power."
So, yeah, you know it's hard out there in the 'hood sometimes. But when you be hangin' low you toughen up, mofo! You take the blows and move on. Basically, if you can't put up then shut up. Know what I'm saying, yo!?"
As always, more great blogging (and moral clarity) at American Power.

Truth in advertising......from Rico
I may have discovered the 'inspiration' for the New Democrat logo.
- I guess the jackass logo was uncomrtably close to the mark these days.
It DOES 'fit' nicely in the crapper where they have managed to put all of us in very short order.
This is truth in advertising, eh?
- And apparently they are the only ones that believe their own B.S.!
.....the only thing missing is the "free Obama dolls" sign.

You risk your ass for us, its about bloody time we let you have a damn drink!
"As you will have seen a subject that gets my goat and always has done is the ludicrous drinking age in the US. I specifically spoke to the fact that young men and women who risk their lives on the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan are unable to have a drink when they return to the “land of freedom”"
