Diane Watson is a racist Congressional Representative from California’s 33rd District, in Los Angeles. Just over a year ago, she chastised Ward Connerly for his having the nerve to wed a white woman.
She’s telling us now that the only opponents of Barack Obama and his move to socialize America are those who object to socialism because, in her words, “[Barack is] the first President who looks like me.”
In the same breath, she sings the praises of Marxist murderer Che Guevara and Marxist murderer Fidel Castro (who ousted Che).
Hear it for yourself:

(Caution: this post has copious literary allusions to George Orwell’s “1984″.)
Up before dawn this pleasant summer morn, my casual daily stroll across the Web in search of delightful news for blog content seemed somehow to be just another glorious day of fatuous bliss. In these serene Orwellian days when change is actually much more of the same, hope is actually despair, and transparency is actually opacity, headlines are rife with eager potential for more thought crimes against the Ministry of Truth and the Big Brother Administration.
In my earnest quest to reach the elusive Room 101 or at least a secluded joycamp, all the usual questions pervaded my impure mind. Where is John Galt? What would Winston Smith do? Why IS the constitution bad?
Then, without warning, just over the horizon I glimpsed the fringes of new strife. Soon I could hear the call to arms. Coming directly toward me at the speed of broadband was … what … could it be true … unfolding on Battlefield Internet a new struggle for freedom was beginning … the War of the Watchdogs.
First blood was drawn by a gallant General, known to patriots as the inimitable Glenn Beck. Saul Alinsky’s arrant knaves speak of him only as the “Faux News Clown”.
On July 31st at 10:31 am, he called upon his 10 million radio and Web followers to be constitutional watchdogs. In effect, he challenged us to resist the destiny of free range human livestock. He boldly asked that we, we who love freedom, become actively vigilant and to report as patriotic keyboard warriors directly to him any violations of the constitution that we discovered.

According to the Cambridge Traffic, Parking, and Transportation Department, between 1988 and 1991, Barack Obama received 17 parking tickets, only two of which did he pay during his time there as a law student.
According to Susan Clippinger, the office’s director, Barack Obama didn’t pay the other fifteen tickets until decades later, two weeks prior to launching his presidential campaign.
In January of 2009, the Boston Globe started asking around about Obama’s time at Harvard. Among their questions were questions concerning any possible law violations. At that same time, not coincidentally, someone who was representing Barack Obama called the parking office and inquired into his old unpaid tickets.
“On January 26, the remaining $375 in fines and fees were paid by credit card using the city’s website,” Susan Clippinger said.
Ms. Clippinger also said that she didn’t know precisely who paid them, and then added: “I just think it’s fabulous he finally paid them. I think others who owe us money should pay us, too.”
So do I, Susan. So do I.
From the Boston Globe:
Jen Psaki, a spokeswoman for the Obama campaign, said last night that the senator paid for the tickets out of a personal account.
She would not comment on why it had taken him so long to pay the tickets and fees. “All I can do is confirm that he paid all the tickets and late fees in full,” she said.
Clippinger said her records show that Obama received the tickets between Oct. 5, 1988, and January 12, 1990, for violations including parking in a resident-only area, blocking a bus stop, and failing to put money in meters.
He received most of the tickets in fall 1988, in his first year at Harvard Law School, a grueling trial for many of the students. A meter violation then cost only $5; the penalty for not paying promptly tacked on another $15. At times, he received multiple tickets in the same day for exceeding the time limit at a meter.
In total, he incurred $140 in fines and $260 in late fees. In February 1990, he paid two of the tickets, one for $10 and the other for $15.
“He’s certainly not our worst ticket scofflaw,” Clippinger said. “Unfortunately, it’s not that abnormal. It’s actually pretty run of the mill.”
Obama’s payment of the Cambridge tickets was reported yesterday by The Somerville News.
The Globe reported in January that in Somerville, where Obama lived while attending Harvard, the senator still owed the city $73 in excise taxes and $45 in late penalties for parking in a bus stop in 1990 and in a street-sweeping zone in 1991. Both of the tickets had been paid.
Tom Champion, a spokesman for the city of Somerville, said he called Obama’s office after receiving a query about the late fees from the Globe in late January.
By the next Monday, January 29, he said, the penalties were paid.
“He had no idea he had outstanding charges,” Champion said. “The Globe, by raising the issue, called it to his attention, and then he paid them immediately” (source).
Ray also heads up the Tea Party of Northern Colorado, where the rubber meets the road. If you have any doubt about that, drop on by.

Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin says she’d come out ahead if she went one-on-one with fellow jogger President Barack Obama in a long run, according to an interview published online Tuesday.
“I betcha I’d have more endurance,” she told Runner’s World magazine.
“My one claim to fame in my own little internal running circle is a sub-four (hours) marathon,” she said, referring to her 2005 sprint in the Humpy’s Marathon in Anchorage. “What I lacked in physical strength or skill, I made up for in determination and endurance,” she said.
A message seeking comment Tuesday from the White House by The Associated Press was not immediately returned.
Palin, a 45-year-old former beauty queen who became the first woman and youngest person to be elected Alaska’s governor, is featured in the August issue of the magazine for running aficionados. She was dubbed the country’s “hottest” governor when she stole the show as U.S. Sen. John McCain’s presidential running mate in 2008.
In the interview, she talks about her fondness for running, which is perhaps why the mother of five who gave birth to a baby boy last year is able to keep trim. The magazine on Tuesday published an extended version on its Web site.
Palin said the exercise wasn’t just a body thing and that it helps keep her emotionally and mentally in shape.
“I feel so crappy if I go more than a few days without running. No matter how rotten I feel before or during a run, it’s always worth it to me afterward. Sweat is my sanity,” Palin tells the magazine.

In January of 2009, shortly after being sworn in as our Illegal-Alien-In-Chief, Barack Obama, commenting on America’s current economic crisis, said these remarkable words:
“There is no disagreement [among economists] that we need action by our government, a recovery plan that will help to jumpstart the economy.”
What follows therefore is a very partial listing of American economists, Nobel laureates among them, who do in fact disagree with Barack’s ridiculous statement, and have even gone on public record saying so:

Presidential candidate Alan Keyes, vice-presidential candidate Wiley S. Drake, and the Chairman of the American Independent Party, Markham Robinson, have filed suit in California Superior Court in Sacramento seeking to bar Secretary of State Debra Bowen from certifying to Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger the names of Electors, and from transmitting to each presidential Elector a Certificate of Election, until documentary proof is produced and verified showing that Senator Obama is a “natural born” citizen of the United States, and does not hold citizenship of Indonesia, Kenya or Great Britain.

As reported by WorldNetDaily, the official website of President-Elect Barack Obama, Change.gov, originally announced that Obama would “require” all middle school through college students to participate in community service programs; but after a flurry of blogs protested children being drafted into Obama’s proposed youth corps, the website’s wording was softened.
Originally, under the tab “America Serves” Change.gov read:
“Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to require 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year.”
The word “require” was stricken from the website Friday (2008-11-07) and replaced with the phrase “setting a goal”. Now, it also lists tax credits toward college tuition.

On November 4, 2008 just hours after the presidential election victory of Barack Hussein Obama, thousands of Philadelphians poured into the streets to cheer for the President-elect. Hordes of joyful Obama supporters overflowed with gleeful chanting fervor.
But when one man dared to have a differing opinion, simply by wearing a McCain/Palin ‘08 t-shirt, police officers threatened him with arrest and eventually did so. Apparently, it is now illegal in the City of Brotherly Love to be a quiet white republican. The ever-so-tolerant Obama fanatics shouted chants as the man was arrested for QUIETLY trying to use his First Amendment rights. We’ll keep you posted as similar ordeals develop in the news in the coming months.
The first video is specific clip of this incident. The second one is a more extensive 6-minute documentary of events that night.

This is the movie trailer to the action-packed story of greed and corruption by imperious socialists. You’ve heard about it in the news. Now, look for “Obama’s A-Team” in your local theater.

As President-elect Barack Obama prepares to take office in January, he is confronted with many challenges. Few presidents have ever stepped into the oval office in such difficult times. Issues looming ahead include health care, Medicare financing, energy concerns, wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, terrorism threats, unprotected borders, 30 million undocumented immigrants, and the numerous warning signs that our economy is in recession.
As crises abound, the president-elect must fill key posts with a top-notch team. And, he must put the right people in the right place expeditiously. Obama’s first personnel decision (2008-11-06) was to name U.S. Representative Rahm Emanuel as his Chief of Staff, a key position for the success of a new administration. He has a reputation of doing whatever it takes to achieve well-defined goals. (read this entire post…)

Seton Motley, Media Research Center Director of Communications, appeared on yesterday’s (2008-11-07) “Your World with Neil Cavuto” on the Fox News Channel to discuss advances toward the upcoming so-called Fairness Doctrine (see the video below).
Henry Rivera (pictured right), a longtime radical leftist, is expected to be President-elect Barack Obama’s appointee to oversee the Administration’s Federal Communications Commission (FCC) transition process. This decision will have severe implications for the future of free speech in America. He is destined to become the Executioner of Talk Radio. (read this entire post…)

Blog hoppers, news hounds, disenchanted conservatives, and other venerable ilk … lend me an ear. For today, this enlightening day, we’ll delve into an adventure of discovery elucidating the poignant consequences of the runaway collapse of morality in western culture. Yes; that ineffable vice of which I dare to speak is none other than pernicious procrastination … and its far-reaching detriment to our center-right nation.
Now before you relegate my pungent distress to the scatological realm of male bovine excrement, allow me to assert two rebuttals at this juncture. First, I am not afflicted with Bidenesque rhetorical flourishes. Second, and more importantly, powered with an online thesaurus I can hurl salvos of adjectives at you faster than a ravenous cheetah.
