What the Hillary was going on?

Posted on January 24, 2013 | Comments Off on What the Hillary was going on?

Marco Rubio and most of the other Republicans took the Hildabeast through one boring boilerplate recitation after another at yesterday’s senate hearing on Benghazi. No wonder they can’t win the presidency. As my mother-in-law said of Romney before he was nominated: “No balls.”

Which goes double for McCain, the first loser to King Scold.

Whatever you think of his Texas father (and I don’t think much) young Rand Paul of Kentucky was the only one with any guts who simultaneously sounded intelligent:

“I’m glad that you’re accepting responsibility,” Paul said to our multiple cuckolded secretary of state whose idea of taking responsibility is mouthing empty words with a furrowed brow but without suffering any consequences.

“I think that ultimately with your leaving, you accept the culpability for the worst tragedy since 9/11. And I really mean that. Had I been president at the time, and I found that you did not read the cables from Benghazi, you did not read the cables from Ambassador Stevens [requesting more security], I would have relieved you of your post. I think it’s inexcusable.”

It is but it won’t stop her from running for president in 2016. Meanwhile, next up on the Democrat state department responsibility-with-no-consequences circuit: the Catsup King, better known as Lurch, who may finally show us his magic hat.

King Scold

Posted on January 21, 2013 | Comments Off on King Scold

“No one has good faith but him. No one is sincere but him. Doesn’t this get boring, even to him?”

As Peggy Noonan says, he sounds a lot like Richard Nixon: Paranoid and self-pitying. But even Nixon negotiated. Barry refuses to negotiate. He scolds.

I expect it’s his Affirmative Action background. When you’re used to being handed free what you want you forget how to work for it. If you ever knew.

I won’t watch his inauguration. I don’t care what King Scold has to say. It’s never been very helpful. I remember that he ran in ’08 on a kind of bring-us-together platform. Inspired a lot of people. Then, in his first week in office he reversed course: He attacked Rush Limbaugh and Fox News, both of which drive his fellow Leftists crazy. Heh.

In last year’s campaign, Barry was an attack dog all the way (nary a hint of bring-us-together), and he’s kept it up ever since. Nothing new for him. Apparently, he’s trying to rally the Leftists to vote for enough Democrats to take back the House in 2014 so he can ram son-of-Obamacare through or start confiscating guns. Or else he’s really just Nixon with a tan.

UPDATE:  His inaugural speech: Partisan, pedestrian platitudes. Yep.

Background checks are de facto registration

Posted on January 20, 2013 | Comments Off on Background checks are de facto registration

Background checks for gun purchases are universal already, despite King Barry’s lies about them, except in private sales which the feds will never get control of no matter how many laws the pols pass.

And supposedly the background check is not a form of gun registration because the feds are supposedly prohibited from keeping the background check records.

And you should also believe in the Tooth Fairy and Santa Claus.

So if, as is probable, the oft-lying bureaucrats are keeping those background check records, then we already have a form of gun registration. Meaning that the feds already know who has a gun and who doesn’t—except those of us who owned them before the background checks were instituted and have not bought any since then—which would enhance any subsequent attempt to confiscate them.

And what our uncrowned king did the other day with his monarchial magic wand—ordering disparate federal agencies and even private doctors to contribute to the checks—will only make keeping the background checks more likely. Which is one reason Gun Owners of America, a smaller but tougher outfit than the better-known NRA, and even smaller 2nd Amendment groups, will fight back with lawsuits.

An oldie but a goodie

Posted on January 18, 2013 | Comments Off on An oldie but a goodie

I was opposed to King Barry’s second term, partly because I don’t think any politician should have a second term. Particularly not our current crop of mental and ethical incompetents. It would solve a lot of problems.

The Hebrew, on a bumper sticker that was popular in Israel in 2007 reads: “Diapers and politicians should be replaced frequently and for the same reason.”

(Hack propagandist/journalists like Bob Schieffer should be added to the list also.)

Via Simply Jews.

Good on ya, Rick

Posted on January 16, 2013 | Comments Off on Good on ya, Rick

“…the piling on by the political left, and their cohorts in the media, to use the massacre of little children to advance a pre-existing political agenda that would not have saved those children, disgusts me, personally.”

From Gov. Perry’s statement on President Obama’s new gun control measures.

Texas rep threatens to disobey new gun laws

Posted on January 16, 2013 | Comments Off on Texas rep threatens to disobey new gun laws

Back in the day, editors refused to print stories about what some pol “planned” to do. They insisted on waiting until he actually did it. Even broadcast journalists generally obeyed the rule.

Not anymore, apparently. Not when it comes to threatening to disobey new federal laws on guns, whether passed by Congress or imposed by King Barry’s magic “executive” wand.

Personally, I think the Tan Man is blowing a lot of smoke and will actually do nothing very controversial, such as banning semiautomatics or requiring registration for all gun owners.

He’s mainly trying to distract attention from the soaring national debt and what it means for all the rubber checks he’s handing out. But The Gun Salesman of the Century obviously has some folks running scared. Or at least mouthy.

UPDATE:  Indeed, unless I’m misreading something, Barry’s 23 magic wand pronouncements don’t seem controversial to me. The proposed assault gun ban might be, depending on its definition of an “assault gun,” but otherwise…

As for his enhancement of background checks, well, to my mind they already infringe on the Constitutional right to keep and bear arms. Indeed, they are a de facto form of registration, since the feds would henceforth know you had bought a gun. But they seem to have been upheld by our robed rulers long ago. They’re not something King Barry did.

MORE:  Well, there is the one “order” about how your doctor can (should? must?) ask you about whether you have guns in your home. Ha. He can ask. I will tell him it’s none of his business.

NRA: Barry an “elitest hypocrite”

Posted on January 15, 2013 | Comments Off on NRA: Barry an “elitest hypocrite”

Hey, no kidding. This is a good video the NRA (of which I am a member) has produced on armed security in all schools versus only those for Obozo and the rest of the 1 percent.

But don’t be misled by the WaPo’s remarks at the link  (and probably the rest of the Democrat-controlled news media) which only confirms that Barry’s kids are protected by Secret Service (when they’re not out whoring). Their private Sidwell Friends school has armed guards for all its students.
