Here's my idea for a editorial cartoon!

Posted by Rick on Thursday, August 27, 2009 12:37:02 PM
It is a picture of Obama on the phone in the Oval Office.  He's telling the person to whom he's speaking,

"Yes, we never fail to spin an issue to our advantage.  Go ahead and name it after him."

In another frame, outside on the front porch of the White House, you see a coffin with Kennedy's name on it and a ribbon wrapped around it.

Let's say the Iranian leadership just evaporates tonight!

Posted by Rick on Wednesday, June 17, 2009 9:27:12 AM
To whom will the media give the credit for "removing" such a vile, hate-filled administration from the face of the earth sans firing-a-shot?

B.O., of course!  The media, prone to forgetting about the "advances" made by Iran's neighbors in Iraq, will be quick to THANK B.O. for all the "work" he has done to get rid of the Iranian leadership when it was B.O. who did NOTHING to support the troops looking to bring an Iraqi form of democracy to the Iraqis at the point of a gun.

Obama is racing to take credit for what GWB did in Iran!

Posted by Rick on Monday, June 15, 2009 11:17:32 AM
Bringing free elections to Iraq is the hurdle that the "elected" officials in Iran are having to surmount today!

Who brought the idea of free elections to the people of Iraq?  Who saw this as a wedge to drive between the people of Iran and the Iranian leadership?  Was it B.O?  Nope.  You would be off by eight years, nearly.  Let's see!  Who was responsible for the State of the World back then?  Hmmmm...Wait!  It was GWB!

By doing this GWB KNEW that the "leadership" in Iran would dismiss the desires of the people and put their own guy in the winning column to the displeasure of the people taking to the streets in Tehran and all over their country.  Granted, the position that Ahmed-the-nutjob holds is inconsequential, for the most part, but it is the idea behind it.

Let's Say We Gave Algore That of which He Demanded of us Way Back When!

Posted by Rick on Friday, November 21, 2008 7:00:21 PM
Had we done this, what do you think Algore would be telling us today as people FREEZE in upstate NY and lake-effect snow blankets these same areas?  He would be telling us,
 
"Way to go, everyone, but we need to do MORE to reduce man's effects on global warming!"
 
Like your usual liberal, he would NEVER be satisfied.  This is how they are by their nature.  They demand a little, you give it to them, then they come back demanding MORE from you.  What would we be doing to help "reduce" man's alleged impact on the weather?  Less air travel, for one.  Less driving.  That's right.  Uncle Sam would have a say as to where you drove and how you got there.
 
So, let's take a moment, while we can, to THANK everyone this Thanksgiving who voted FOR GWB in '00 and '04 for keeping the liberals outside as long as they could, but like rats, they've found themselves in the cupboard again, and we may have to call Jindal extermination in four years to clean the place out again.

Could Hedge Funds Become the LAST Bastions of the Free Market?

Posted by Rick on Tuesday, November 18, 2008 12:45:54 PM
A high school friend of mine runs one of the TOP hedge funds and he was one of the five people whom the Congress asked to speak to it last week.  If you are an avid C-Span viewer, you saw him.
 
Anyway, it just dawned on me that these hedge funds MAY become the last bastions of the free market because if Pres. Elect Obama starts moving towards socialism, which is the direction we on the right see him heading after Jan 20, 2009, these funds are going to dump their stocks en masse, and the markets are going to tank.  No idea what my friend's company owns, but his job is to provide money to the people who've invested in his funds, and he does this really well. 
 
When the markets tank, as we've been told for the last eight years, we are to blame the guy at the top - GWB.  The market's tanking after 9/11/01 was GWB's fault as well, as far the media are concerned.  Granted, a LOT of the tanking has happened already, and the only direction left for it to go is up.  *shrug*  Will Pres.-elect Obama give us those glassy eyed stares that Clinton gave us at news conferences in the '90s when the markets were shooting through the roof and he didn't know why.
 
Yet, he was the media's guy and lavish praise upon him they did.
 
So, which will it be?  Will these hedge fund owners become the last bastions of the free market or will they fold and give up?  *laughter*

Come on, media!

Posted by Rick on Friday, November 07, 2008 5:30:04 AM
Your guy got elected, and the economy is tanking STILL!
 
You told us that ALL we needed to do was to elect Sen Obama, and things would be GREAT.  Well, you got what you wanted, and things are NOT turning around yet.  What's going on? 
 
Oh!  We need to fork over our 401K money to the government?  Not a chance! 
 
How much longer until you turn on him?  What will it take?

Were McPlain leading in the polls and Wall Street was experiencing the SAME thing...

Posted by Rick on Tuesday, October 28, 2008 12:39:13 PM
they would be blaming it on HIM!  Yet, since their guy is the guy leading in the polls, it's not HIS fault that investors are reading what the bathroom walls are telling them and getting OUT of the market before Obambi's tax increases start taking affect.  They will tell us that it's the republicans' fault.  The party that HASN'T run Congress for TWO years.  The market started taking this nose dive AFTER Nancy Pelosi took her crown as the House leader in the beginning of '07.  Were there a republican to blame, his butt would be nailed to a chair in front of MANY House committees before the Pelosi and Reid have him/her nailed to a cross and hung for everyone in the world to see.
 
Since there is no one to blame, Pelosi and Reid are to blame.  Were there a sacrificial guilty party, you would have seen him or her being skewered.  So, this is pap. 
 
We're toast.

What happened to Bush in eight months will happen to Obama within six months!

Posted by Rick on Monday, October 20, 2008 2:09:36 PM
 
Forgive me for not reading the column linked above, but my tiny brain doesn't need to concern itself with the details.  It has determined what the column is trying to tell us just from the title of the column, and it is this,
 
"What happened to Bush in eight months will happen to Sen. BO within SIX months, should he get elected."
 
To me, this sounds like a reason NOT to elect the guy!  They want to equate BO with GWB before he gets into office so that should things turn black, people will be able to raise the VP to the position of fortune teller.  *shrug*

Colin Powell is Sen Obama's response to plumber

Posted by Rick on Monday, October 20, 2008 9:36:43 AM
In my tiny mind, Sen. Obama called Colin Powell after the release of the video of him and Joe-the-plumber discussing politics and the Senator letting his mask slip a bit to reveal him as the socialist we on the right all know him to be.  Senator Obama revealed that he wanted to "redistribute" the taxes Joe would be paying were he to buy his new plumbing business and go into business for himself.
 
The USS Obama is sinking, and Powell is the only cork the Senator believes he has that can plug the holes, and the holes are his fault due to his big mouth spouting off the usual liberalist rant he likes to use when he is speaking with his closest friends back home in Chicago.  Ohio is CLOSE to Chicago, but only geographically.

But did Barack vote for it before he voted against it?

Posted by Rick on Friday, October 17, 2008 12:33:51 PM
Barack has done it!  He exposed himself as being the Marxist we on the right all knew him to be.
 
He was trying to explain his tax plan to an alleged "plumber" whom he met while a camera was taping the conversation.  He was a guy who "has a dream."  When one of their own had a dream 45 years ago, he gets the media's support.  This little plumber guy has a dream to earn $250K a year working as a plumber, and the media go wild trying to discredit the poor guy, and Obama wants to tax him to make it easier on everyone else who hasn't reached his level of success yet.
 
John Kerry did it four years ago, and the latest democratic nominee has done it again.  Seeing the media's response to all the hullaballoo this story has created tells those of us who recognized this with JFK that the wrapper has fallen from the gift and revealed him to be just as bad as JFK seemed four years ago.
 
Thank you, Barak HUSSEIN Obama.
 
Vote NObama on November 4th!

Watch Nancy Try To Dismiss Her Party's Responsibility In The Banking Fiasco.

Posted by Rick on Wednesday, September 17, 2008 12:45:56 PM
How stupid does this woman think we Americans are?
 
Perhaps, she feels that there are ENOUGH citizens in the country who DIDN'T get the "education" the liberals, who controlled the Congress for most of the last 60 years, have promised us.  Were we to get the education these poltroons promised, we would ALL know that the party in power in Congress is responsible for the economy - not the president nor the party that lost control of the House two years prior. 
 
For the last ten-to-15 years, the media have been telling us how "smart" Bill Clinton was during the '90s.  Why have they done this?  The LAST thing the media want is the people realizing that it was the REPUBLICANS in Congress who gave us the '90s.  The Congress got out of Americans' way and let them earn their money.  If you look at videos from way back then, you can see Billy's stupid smile, and this ought to be enough to convince you that he deserves NONE of the credit for the economy skyrocketing in the '90s.
 
What will happen if BO gets elected is that the media will tell us how WONDERFUL he is IF he reduces the amount he originally planned to raise everyone's taxes.  He will become the NEXT messiah, as far as the media will be concerned.  They won't bother with explaining how MORE wonderful things would be were he NOT to tax ANYONE!  *laughter*
 
Does ANYONE believe Pelosi will take the BLAME for the floor falling out on Wall and Broad over the last few weeks?

Obama's plan to nickle and dime the electoral college.

Posted by Rick on Tuesday, September 09, 2008 8:04:48 PM
The electoral college, in all its splendor, is meant to award its votes to the winner of EACH state on a state-by-state basis.
 
As the founding fathers intended, this keeps things fairer than they would be were the election to be a popularity contest purely.  It looks like BO wants to distribute one state's electoral votes based on election results so that NO candidate can get ALL the state's votes since it is not likely that ONE candidate is going to get ALL the votes of the state's residents.  This is CR*P!  BO needs to be thrown OUT now!  He is looking to split hairs!

It's just not FAIR!

Posted by Rick on Wednesday, September 03, 2008 12:54:48 PM
(Imagine me being a liberal.  This is how my tiny brain resolves all the current issues that we Dems are facing at the moment.)
 
When Katrina hit, it was a BIGGER, more powerful storm.  Regardless of what all the meteorologists on TV told us in the days/hours prior to its landing, Gustav was a walk in-the-park for all the republican governors who are running ALL the Gulf States now.  It's not fair.
 
Sure, we COULD have nominated Sen. Clinton as Sen. Obama's VP, but after the ruccus we kicked up during the '04 election over gravitas, we felt that we needed an insider to help Sen. Obama secure the election.  Sure, Sen. Clinton won MANY of the latter primaries, but people outside the party influenced those primaries regardless of how hard we tried to keep the OUT of the process.  Sen. Clinton had too much baggage from her eight years as First Lady and her eight years as the junior senator from NY.  It's not fair.
 
Gov. Palin's daughter is a tramp!  It was SHE (the daughter) who gave birth to the little boy with Down's syndrome, and Gov. Palin is just trying to paint a better, more acceptable picture of her family so that it became more palitable for the voting public.  She wants to influence us, like the "communists" in the Soviet Union did.

It all depends on what your definition of "Change" is! *laughter*

Posted by Rick on Thursday, August 28, 2008 12:29:03 PM
The announcement of Sen. Biden as BO's VP running mate last week had me scratching my head after my ears heard the announcement on TV.  For MONTHS, BO's been telling us that HE is "Change we can believe in."  Ummm, people, there are FEW fellow lawmakers in DC who have the experience Biden "brings" to the ticket.  How can hiring someone who has dirtied his OWN hands in politics for more than 30 years involve "change?"
 
Sounds like MORE of the SAME old CR*P to me!  This is more evidence that BO thinks we're stupid tools who are meant to buy and believe all the pap he's selling.  Will the media question this selection?  Heaven's no!  As far as they're concerned, they're happy that they now won't have to dodge questions about BO's gravitas since he's selected such an "experienced" running mate.
 
All Biden will provide is being the fall-guy for the BO campaign in November once election results start rolling in.  The media will explain that BO's popularity was NEVER higher than it was BEFORE he selected Sen. Biden as his VP.  Biden will get trashed when this happens, and he will be to blaim for BO's loss.
 
What was BO thinking when it came time to select a running mate?  The smartest presidential candidates make an attempt to select a running mate who differs from him/her so that the pair can get MORE support from other people who see reason to support the pair due to the VP's personality.  These two came from the SAME casting.  The only difference between the two is that BO's political career started LATER than Biden's did.

What the people at "The New Yorker" are trying to say with that magazine cover.

Posted by Rick on Thursday, July 17, 2008 11:49:32 AM
"Obama is going to lose due to America's racism."  This is what that cover is trying to tell to us in code that the brainiest liberals among us only can understand.  Were Obama to lose in November, then the authors can stand on their desks and scream,
 
"See!  We told you that America is filled with racists!"
 
That is what this cover image is trying to tell us.  The dims tried the Vietnam tactic with John F-ing Kerry with the LAST election and they had their butts handed to them.  They slapped a new coat of paint on the same sort of character and pushed him out front of the "expected" candidate who most of us thought would earn the nomination.
 
What will they do when the Obamagician fails to appear as the winner in November?  He's doomed.  It's the "Silent Majority" all over again.
