Taxing the rich

Thomas Sowell wonders if facts are obsolete in Democrat politics? Afterall, Baby Barry’s current popularity seems dependent on such old "change" mantras as raising capital gains taxes to make the privileged pay more so government can spend more. But teachers, nurses and mechanics are among the almost half of Americans whose 401K pension income programs depend on involve stocks, and they will take the hit along with the wealthy.

Airbrushing Jesse

Ain’t it quaint, the way the MSM played coy in not being explicit about the sexual violence that race hustler JJackson suggested ought to be done to Baby Barry. Read down at the link there to where Taranto finds an interesting parallel between the racist nature of Jackson’s unreported words and his own politics of racial grievance. What, you expected consistency? At least the Brits are bold enough to explain why Jackson needs BB to fail. Don’t worry Jesse, he will.

UPDATE: Jackie and Dunlap, of Red State Update, opine on what Jesse really did say.

Obama rules the young?

So say the pundit/profs at No Left Turns, a conservative site I usually enjoy for its measured take on just about everything. But this belief that the young will propel Baby Barry into the presidency makes me laugh. The great thing about the young, I have found, in terms of not wanting to be governed by their often-silly politics, is that for all their big talk, they seldom register to vote. When they do, they just can’t find the time to go to the polls. They figure someone else will do it. Yep. I will, but I won’t vote for BB.

Ocarter

Of all the nicknames I’ve heard for Baby Barry: B. Hussein Obama, Barry, Baby Barry (my fav), the Messiah, etc., Ocarter definitely is a comer, especially with BB’s plans to soak the rich, beat up on the oil companies, and, just like Jimmy, lecture all of us on this or that. He certainly has the anti-Semitic background (Jeremiah Wright, Louis Farrakahn), as well. Some people prefer to capitalize the c, but I think I’ll leave it lower case. This one also is cute: Flipper. We must wait until November to see if Flopper is warranted.

Airbrush

First the Washington Post does it, leaving the Reverend God Damn America, Baby Barry’s anti-white, anti-American religious mentor and pastor of twenty years, completely out of a puffy profile of BB’s "spiritual journey," and then ABC follows the new airbrushing by doing the same thing. How sweet BB’s media pals are. Will it work? I doubt it.

Removing the E Pluribus Unum was the weirdest part. Vero Possumus can’t replace it.
