The Elite in this Country are Definitely NOT British, it seems

Looking at the reaction of the left in light of the rise of the Tea Party, one would never surmise that we descended from those tea-loving crumpet eaters, the British. Let me give you an example of what I mean:

Just a Conservative Girl has posted on the tragedy involving the representative who was shot in Arizona today, and has linked to a tweet by none other than Hanoi Jane herself, Jane Fonda. The traitorous Hollywood liberal had the audacity, as many on the left have had since the Tea Party gained steam, to blame the violence against the Arizona Democrat on the Tea Party itself, all without evidence to support the claim. She is joined in this endeavor by none other than Paul Krugman of the New Snark Times. Here is the tweet from Fonda:

Progressive Arizona Rep Gabrielle Giffords is shot. In her ads, Sarah Palin had her targeted in a gun site. Inciting to violence.

Fonda is referring to a map that shows districts wherein there were candidates for re-election that Palin sought to unseat in last year's elections.

Never mind that the ads in question was put on the air over a year ago, in preparation for the elections. Never mind that people are responsible for their own actions and that not that many people do something just because someone tells them it's okay. And never mind that the map Jane Fonda refers to was a SURVEY MAP and the markers were SURVEY MARKERS, used typically to target potential ore deposits in preparation for mining. But then, that's typical of the leftists in Hollywood and in Washington. They think we average Americans are too stupid to know any better when people use metaphor and hyperbole to make a point. Why else would they think we're nothing more than pawns of the likes of Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh? At least that insult tells me that they think we're capable of obeying commands. Paul Krugman doesn't even allow us that much intelligence, given how many of his columns have found eloquent and flowery ways to use the word "stupid" when referring to Americans.

I read his column, though it kills brain cells each time I do, and I am not surprised at all that Krugman, before anyone knew anything about the shooter, even his name, Krugman was out there blaming the Tea Party and the right wing for a deed that they are completely innocent of. Conservative Girl explains:

Paul Krugman couldn't even bothered to wait until more information was known before they decided to weigh in and blame the right for this horrifying act of violence. Krugman came out with his statement before the name of the shooter was known and what the press was reporting was that he was a war vet. There is enough information about the shooter now for Krugman to realize that this is a matter of a very delusional young man who didn't seem to have grip on reality. In one you tube video he is burning the American flag, in other he has a diatribe about the constitution and mind control.

Now I know Krugman doesn't like the right, but come on. Even he can't be THAT lazy...well, maybe he can.

Can we please just let the woman recover without turning her near death experience into a political pissing contest that tries to prove whether Liberalism is superior to Conservatism? Please?

Conspiracy and Idiocy in Politics, Volume One

After listening to and watching several videos on Youtube throughout my latest traipsing through the internet community, I have decided to put together a little anthology. I run into so much idiocy as I wade through the jungle that is the modern media, that I decided to pay tribute to my favorite aspects of stupidity ever since I started paying attention in '08:

Number One: Bush can't open a door and the media goes nuts. Obama makes this many gaffs and only Fox and talk radio have the balls to report it, citing a double standard:



I guarantee you haven't seen all of those. And if you have, doesn't it make you cringe to know that the liberal media pretty much makes love to this moron every time he ties his shoes?

For our second bout of idiocy we turn to your favorite and mine, Vice President Joe "bite me" Biden:



And, for our third and final bout of idiocy, we turn to Conservatives4Palin, who originally posted the video of Obama's gaffes. They, an obviously pro-Sarah Palin website, brought this little gem to my attention just today:

We Won't Stand Down, We Will 'Refudiate': Exhibit A
By Sheya

How can I say this without offending anyone? I can’t. And frankly I don’t care if I do offend someone. The left, the media, and the entire national elite have gone mad, crazy, off their rockers.

Governor Palin sends a tweet and uses the word “refudiate” and bang! whack! every national and international media outlet goes into attack mode debating whether it’s a word or not. I am not going to pretend to know what the Governor's intentions were -- whether it was made on purpose or in error. Personally I believe it was intentional. The only reason the Mosque story got the attention it did today was as a result of this made-up controversy. She gets them every time.

But for the sake of this article let’s assume the Governor made a mistake. Newsflash: Governor Palin is a human being and she makes mistakes. We’re not a bunch of kooks who believe Governor Palin is the “Messiah”. At least her mistakes don’t leave the country trillions of dollars in debt.

So it was a mistake. Who the hell cares? By the outrage of the left you’d think that this was the first time a politician made a gaffe. Let’s examine the evidence, shall we:

“The time has changed for come.” (Barack Obama)

“Let me be absolutely clear, Israel is a strong friend of Israel’s.” (Barack Obama)

“I want to be very clear, we are resolved to halt the rise of [piracy] privacy.” (Barack Obama reading off a teleprompter)

“The reforms we seek, will bring greater competition, choice, savings and inefficiencies to our health care system.” (Barack Obama reading off a teleprompter)

“There is much to celebrate from the FBI’s 100 days" [years] . (Barack Obama reading off a teleprompter)

“I don’t know what the term is in Austrian.” (Barack Obama to an audience of Austrians who, of course, speak German)

Refers to Matt Lauer as “Tim” not once but at least three times during an interview with Matt Lauer. (Barack Obama)

Refers to a guy named Mr. Williams as “Mr. Walters.” (Barack Obama)

“...Here in St. Louis... I’m in Kansas City.” (Barack Obama during his own nomination convention)

“How’s it going, Sunshine?” (Barack Obama in Sunrise, Florida)

“Thank You, Sioux City.” (Barack Obama in Sioux Falls)

Reads the word “Corpsman” as “Corpse Man“ twice (Barack Obama reading off a teleprompter)

“I have now been in 57 states.” (Barack Obama)

"One of the things which is a HUGE advantage for America compared to countries like Europe" (Barack Obama)

"The members of our highest court are granted life tenure, often serving long after the Presidents who appointed them. And they are charged with the vital task of applying principles put to paper more than 20 centuries ago to some of the most difficult questions of our time". (Barack Obama in nominating Judge Sotomayor)

Wow. Going nuts over a conservative woman making what was in all honesty most likely just a typo on twitter? How desperate are these loons that they have to jump and scream every time Palin makes a comment they don't like? They know who she is, and they're bat shit scared of her. If this doesn't prove it, what does?
