Empty..........from Rico
No, it is NOT that the Emporer has no clothes...our First Kommissar is all clothes and no Emporer.
Obama-Soetoro, whatever his name is, is an EMPTY SUIT. Elegantly tailored and carefully presented...but an empty suit.
A hollow man embracing a hollow philosophy, as are his acolytes and devotees.
Empty suits all.
This November is an opportunity to take them to the cleaners.
- It will make a nice "change" I think, from them taking US to the cleaners.

The Great Un-recovery............from Rico
The Minneapolis Fed would not lie to you like the Financial Media would, or Congress.
- Here are some charts you won't get from Maria Bartiromo or The White House Recovery Tsar.
People wanted 'change' and by all reckoning, they'll get it. A grinding Hobbesian quality of life looms.
- Be careful what you wish for.
This should be called "The Great Un-recovery."

America's Democrat-Socialist Party
I've long written about this — most recently at "Progressives Are Communists (If You Didn't Know"). It's a done deal now. Leftists can quit lying about it. The Democratic Party is a socialist party. (I call them commies, and while there's some additional steps in the Marxist dialectic before you get there, the ultimate destination is the same no matter how one self-identifies). The key posts are at Gateway Pundit and Nice Deb ("Can We Call Them Democrat Socialists, Now?").
Below is the screencap from the Democratic Socialists of America, "What is Democratic Socialism?" Notice how the manifesto states that "we are not a separate party" from the Democratic Party of Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid:
Socialists have historically supported public ownership and control of the major economic institutions of society -- the large corporations -- in order to eliminate the injustice and inequality of a class-based society, and have depended on the the organization of a working class party to gain state power to achieve such ends. In the United States, socialists joined with others on the Left to build a broad-based, anti-corporate coalition, with the unions at the center, to address the needs of the majority by opposing the excesses of private enterprise. Many socialists have seen the Democratic Party, since at least the New Deal, as the key political arena in which to consolidate this coalition, because the Democratic Party held the allegiance of our natural allies. Through control of the government by the Democratic Party coalition, led by anti-corporate forces, a progressive program regulating the corporations, redistributing income, fostering economic growth and expanding social programs could be realized.And additionally:
Social Redistribution. Social redistribution -- the shift of wealth and resources from the rich to the rest of society -- will require:Okay, a "shift of wealth and resources from the rich to the rest of society," or to "spread the wealth around." We've heard that before:1. massive redistribution of income from corporations and the wealthy to wage earners and the poor and the public sector, in order to provide the main source of new funds for social programs,income maintenance and infrastructure rehabilitation, andAlthough such reforms will be very difficult to achieve on a national scale in the short term, their urgency increases as income inequality intensifies. Over time, income redistribution and social programs will be critical not only to the poor but to the great majority of working people. The defense and expansion of government programs that promote social justice, equal education for all children, universal health care, environmental protection and guaranteed minimum income and social well-being is critical for the next Left.
2. a massive shift of public resources from the military (the main user of existing discretionary funds) to civilian uses.
And that makes sense, since "OBAMA SIGNED UP WITH DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST PARTY IN '95!"
Going back over to the American Socialist Voter homepage, the site is careful in attempting to distance itself from violent Marxist-Leninist revolutionary agitation. And of course this is always the case with socialists (who are all by definition Marxists) as they try to revive a world-historically discredited ideology. Hence, today's leftists embrace a subterranean neo-communist ideological program that works to destabilize and transform democratic-capitalist institutions from the inside. This is the "burrowing from within" associated with Alinsky's Marxists. More on this here: "Obama = Alinsky = Gramsci = Marx."
Conservatives know most of this already. See Melanie Phillips' essay from September 2008, "Revolution You Can Believe In." Save it. Put all of this at your sidebar. Never confuse "liberals" with "progressives." (As Maureen Dowd does today at New York Times.) These people are Marxists. They've adopted a go-slow approach to the revolutionary agenda. It's about burrowing, destabilizing, indoctrination, and infiltration. Unfortuntely, hubris kills the grandest ambitions, and the Democrat-socialist redistribution scam is being increasingly repudiated by the American public ("Even the Poor Are Abandoning Obama"). November will see an epic smackdown against the radical left members of the Democratic congressional party. Then in 2012 President Hussein will be repudiated. The country can then try to restore some of its founding principles, not to mention a little sanity.

Obama's Ground Zero Backpedaling Fail
Byron York calls Obama's Ground Zero statements "Clintonian":
... there is simply no doubt that Obama's Friday evening speech, in the context in which it was delivered, was an endorsement of the Ground Zero project. It was certainly widely understood as such. The headlines of the three New York papers reporting the speech were: "Obama Backs Islam Center Near 9/11 Site" (New York Times); "Allah Right By Me" (New York Post); and "Prez: Build the Mosque" (New York Daily News). The lead of an Associated Press report on the speech was: "President Barack Obama on Friday forcefully endorsed building a mosque near ground zero, saying the country's founding principles demanded no less." But on Saturday, Obama said all those listeners were wrong, that they misunderstood him.And Tom Maguire, "Obama On The Mosque - The Backpedaling Begins":
Several years ago, there was a word for Obama's rhetorical technique: Clintonian. Like the former president, Obama spoke words he knew would be understood as having a particular meaning in a particular context. He also knew that those same words, when examined closely outside that context, might also be interpreted as having a different meaning. In that sense, the mosque affair is a good lesson for both supporters and opponents of the president. From now on, with Obama, as it was with Clinton, the rule is: Don't listen to the speech. Read the words very carefully.
I have an idea our President will love - maybe we can open an Islamic Waffle House in a building damaged in the 9/11 attacks. Obama can be the first customer.Hat Tip: Glenn Reynolds.

The First World War, explained as a pub fight...........
Germany, Austria and Italy are stood together in the middle of the pub, when Serbia bumps into Austria, and spills Austria's pint.
Austria demands Serbia buy it a complete new suit, because there are splashes on its trouser leg.
Germany expresses its support for Austria's point of view
Britain recommends that everyone calm down a bit.
Serbia points out that it can't afford a whole suit, but offers to pay for cleaning Austria's trousers.
Russia and Serbia look at Austria.
Austria asks Serbia who it's looking at.
Russia suggests that Austria should leave its little brother alone.
Austria inquires as to whose army will assist Russia in compelling it to do so.
Germany appeals to Britain that France has been looking at it, and that this is sufficiently out of order that Britain should not intervene.
Britain replies that France can look at who it wants to, that Britain is looking at Germany too, and what is Germany going to do about it?
Germany tells Russia to stop looking at Austria, or Germany will render Russia incapable of such action.
Britain and France ask Germany whether it's looking at Belgium.
Turkey and Germany go off into a corner and whisper. When they come back, Turkey makes a show of not looking at anyone.
Germany rolls up its sleeves, looks at France, and punches Belgium.
France and Britain punch Germany. Austria punches Russia. Germany punches Britain and France with one hand and Russia with the other.
Russia throws a punch at Germany, but misses and nearly falls over. Japan calls over from the other side of the room that it's on Britain's side, but stays there. Italy surprises everyone by punching Austria.
Australia punches Turkey, and gets punched back. There are no hard feelings, because Britain made Australia do it.
France gets thrown through a plate glass window, but gets back up and carries on fighting. Russia gets thrown through another one, gets knocked out, suffers brain damage, and wakes up with a complete personality change.
Italy throws a punch at Austria and misses, but Austria falls over anyway. Italy raises both fists in the air and runs round the room chanting.
America waits till Germany is about to fall over from sustained punching from Britain and France, then walks over and smashes it with a barstool, then pretends it won the fight all by itself.
By now all the chairs are broken, and the big mirror over the bar is shattered. Britain, France and America agree that Germany threw the first punch, so the whole thing is Germany's fault . While Germany is still unconscious, they go through its pockets, steal its wallet, and buy drinks for all their friends.

Golf Poem........
In My Hand I Hold A Ball,
White And Dimpled, Rather Small.
Oh, How Bland It Does Appear,
This Harmless Looking Little Sphere.
By Its Size I Could Not Guess,
The Awesome Strength It Does Possess.
But Since I Fell Beneath Its Spell,
I’ve Wandered Through The Fires Of Hell.
My Life Has Not Been Quite The Same,
Since I Chose To Play This Stupid Game.
It Rules My Mind For Hours On End,
A Fortune It Has Made Me Spend.
It Has Made Me Yell, Curse And Cry.
I Hate Myself And Want To Die.
It Promises A Thing Called Par,
If I Can Hit It straight And Far..
To Master Such A Tiny Ball,
Should Not Be Very Hard At All..
But My Desires The Ball Refuses,
And Does Exactly As It Chooses.
It Hooks And Slices, Dribbles And Dies,
And Even Disappears Before My Eyes.
Often It Will Have A Whim,
To Hit A Tree Or Take A Swim.
With Miles Of Grass On Which To Land,
It Finds A Tiny Patch Of Sand.
Then Has Me Offering Up My Soul,
If Only It Would Find The Hole.
It’s Made Me Whimper Like A Pup,
And Swear That I Will Give It Up..
And Take To Drink To Ease My Sorrow,
But The Ball Knows …. I’ll Be Back Tomorrow

Never have so few, fooled so many, for so long.
I've figured it out, have you?
I'm sure the Religion of Peace will reciprocate by allowing at least ONE Christan church and/or one Synagogue in Mecca (or at least one non-Muslim), right Barry? Nice pre-Ramadan dinner at The White Mosque, too. The "first, historic, unprecedented" one I bet.
