Thanks NY Governor Patterson

Governor Implies Palin's Repeated Use Of 'Community Organizer' Is Another Way Of Saying 'Black'On Tuesday, he raised eyebrows again, and tempers, by accusing the John McCain campaign of veiled racism. "
Reporting
Don Dahler ALBANY (CBS)
 
Here so many folks that get up and go to work and listening everyday to a favorite radio dial , and when their Democrat challenges radio for "Fair and Equal" threats of a disconnect for simply wanting to hear a particular personality that isn't abusing sensible converation in daylight hours, we get a non-elect Governor from a major state saying things that should get more attention. 
It's anyones guess that a 'community organizer' is not a "real" job description for most resume account.  So now that a Harvard grad with a thin after school life and a thinner skin wants to be America's Commander in Chief, we naturally should get a bit nervous.  I wouldn't guess what so many students do or don't actaully learn by attending the Institution and living the lifestyle and expecting the networked follow through of having been there...but questions do pop up.  So when a sitting Governor gives words to a suit and  characterizes the way he did  should make us everyday folks before election listen.
Governor Patterson himself compares a 'community organizer' to "black"!  What does that say from one black elected official to another through the veil of media access?  Should the press give the NY governor more press, and press his remark for clarification of meaning...knowing that even graduates of Harvard repeatedly say things for the record only to say afterwards that "that's what I said but that's NOT what I meant"!   
Did the governor of NY truly express his clear mental reasoning as a 'black man' in relating a 'comunnity organizer' with honesty that the job description that Barak Huessein Obama wants to walk into the White House is nothing but a bunk and 'pasted reume' to get where  we haven't seen a recent association with early boosters such as Warren Buffet?  Where are all the premium supporters support today?

Sarah Palin, Welcome to Hunting Camp 2008

Granted some of us have read a few accounts of the politics of Alaska and governor Palin, but most in America have only heard your name in the past few days.  You did a WOW at the MN RNC outcoming for yourself and John McCain's presidential campaign run.  The best was the fact that you are capable of having a conversation with the American people similar to 'old movies' when it was custom for actors, to as neighbors, do laundry and hang clothes near enough to share real life events, daily little things or the less happy or just want to share information.  You have a gift to 'get it off your chest',  and onto someone else's.   Your speech managed to strike a direct shot at the shallowness of the little explored canyons of  where Barak Obama hides his camouflage that drew response from the wounded shortly after speaking.  That line of compare the guy of community organizer as being a qualification to the White House was the question that needs quantifying.  So the Obama outfit set out to stem the loss, throughout the night retorts were sought, the game plan changed, being that the campaign sought to focus on the "19 months of campaigning with how many employees.."  were the skills of being Commander in Chief!  Throughout the day folks from Tom Delay on Fox News saying that a "campaign manager is someone you hire NOT elect to the White House."  On the 5PM ET program the beautiful Megyn Kelly on FOX focused on the subsequent try at the same wound afterwards the Bill O'Reilly interview in York,PA with a press Q&A when a reporter again asked the community organizer experience as relevant to office Q.  Well BHO first claimed that a community organizer " is an important community citizen, helping laid off steel workers and helping create jobs", then went on to the new perspective of  "19 months campaigning..."  that qualifies  as WH material! Sure dude?  So when will those same reporters at York,PA follow up the content of the answer from the South Chicago community organizer as to 'how many jobs did you create?' with that involvement in that community and  how is that translatable to America now? 
We know you're a wounded candidate, you have spread your own comment and are seeking cover to recuperate, but the political and media trail is hot and time is not your friend.  Eyes are everywhere, voices are 24/7, and the pressure is only going to get more for the capture of the WH, words are talons to victory. America is watching and listening.

Obama Angers Allies

It's always news if it's in the East coast print press, you know the leaders of smear when they get distracted from actually reporting something newsworthy on the top fold of the front page crowd.  Well it too is note worthy when Ann Coulter gives rile to the omission viewpoint of news NOT told.  That is where after Barak Obama did his one time at John McCains' insistence to at least drop in on the troops in Iraq and subsequently tripped over some European countries to be familiar with those campaign questions to come and Youtube photos, what he missed was the quiet afterwards.   If you catch the news from web sites, then it's no secret that the EU has a 2X unemployment rate the USA, and that Berlin is almost 2X the EU at 17%.  So it is no wonder when in summer Barak had an audience of young folks with nothing to do that didn't cost money.  It is also no secret that Europe has petrol costs at the pump that would give most Americans a heart attack, somewhere between $5-$9 per gallon ~!  So when Barak got around to 'drafting' those young Europeans to be the fiscal escape for our troops in Afghanistan, that $10B/Month Bush/McCain military expense, these young Germans got smart real quick and started to use their feet to find an exit, just like soccer fans that don't want to be the 'trampled to death' crowd when things don't go right. About now the papers of repute have little follow up on the other side of the pond which omission is strong medicine for further enquiry...just like they don't do for the Iraq handover of Anbar Province...not going to happen until after the November election.  It's also not a story that they'll tell that the EU folks have figured out Barak on Old Energy...you've heard about his $1000 per house giveaway, that American BIG Oil pays more in taxes than they earn in America....those unemployed EU, so many under 30 haven't had a first job, unless they wear underware or expensive stuff in front of cameras/models; they're OK with high gas because they don't use the stuff directly,but have figured the 'Winddfall tax' that Obama talks about is not going to come from taxed out America that flounders with $4 gas, but them!  You see Barak Obama already has admitted to the World that his economic plan cannot get the spending from his broken Jimmy Carter like policy prescription, nor the 1% rich in this country, and has signaled that he needs many more willing contributors to his jolly Hugo Chavez minded governing to spend proposed Administration, but the folks in Europe already incapable of helping Poland fend off Putin' nuclear missle threats, aren't getting press about Baraks' funding reach!   They know that if Big Oil is being taxed beyond American profit levels that money is coming from somewhere else, and Europe with higher taxes is probably the most likely source of that revenue...Obama has our Allies in the crosshairs of their paychecks, they don't get to vote here, and someone ought to better shine the light around.

Obama's Convention Speech, Repo Leftovers

The last of Denvers' Democratic Party Convention  was a speech by the "Messiah" of the left, Barak Obama, left without specifying anything more than his previous limited warranty speak.  Even the venerable Peggy Noonan wrote in her latest piece,  " I think Mr. Obama decided it didn't matter if he repeated much of what he's said on the campaign trail before, which he had," .http://online.wsj.com/article/SB121998875327382805.html?mod=todays_us_opinion  Even the CNBC Friday Fast Money show had a contributor who remarked that the Denver speech offered "chocolate" and so much more sweet everything dribbled down the campaign trail as to make investors rekindle a sense of reality towards emotional overload about this upcoming election.
My best remembered line was the "that better place around the bend."   http://www.weeklystandard.com/Content/Public/Articles/000/000/015/483vbrlo.asp   Have you ever while driving in a new to you place , stopped and asked a stranger, if willing that offered directions that included around the bend while on a straight road?  Just the reference is enough to make a mindful person infer that 'ducking' a cognizant direct was as obscur as it gets! If the person had a map, it wouldn't exhibit the bend, because .....Obama doesn't have a vision or the readmap to get there; he mave have the desire, but again, who doesn't dream a good one when you wish one?  The MSM has been doing it's best to fabricate what the Obama/Biden campaign hasn't said or done with the most that even free airwaves should prohibit, but the O/B is ultimately up against a wall of the seen so far, that WE the People will have to read before we see the PM of 11-04-08.  The next two months will pit the (as a Food Channel) competition challenge to the American public the entire peoples collective of politics, the decision as to the President of the USA. Next week it's MN for the Republican Convention....afterwards the run down to the final!

Obama Presidency leads America towards 'yes we can' What?

It's not easy to not hear the press talk about the messiah chatter without even themselves catching their own speak to what they know but don't reveal, nor the democratic anger within...the Clintons ever in the background, the soundbites of the candidate himself.  "yes we can", was spoken by Bill Clinton tonight with the thought of 'yes HE can'? 
If that becomes a reality in post November vote tabulation, along with a potential Nancy House majority and a Harry Senate vote advantage running the ship of State,with Barak in the  Pilot house, what does that do to the average Americans' life forward?  Honestly their collective program attitude would probably shrink many financial portfolio investment actions save a few speculative windmill accounts that would maybe deliver years out if ever...the hard part is their paltform near!  You are not a Union worker, 7.5% are today, with them in control, your next check will have a new withholding and a new boss to answer to.  You thought you have private health insurance, now it will be 'medicare-like government', if I were a doctor that doesn't do Medicare because of payment...well health care providers are now the equivalent to Amtrak or Postal employees...MEET your new Boss!  Work for Big Oil, Big Pharma, or any other CO2 or greedy(Big) employer, you probably are in for a job retraining program and most likely for some a relocation payment. Coal , old oil, and other carbon employment is slated to be wound down over a little 10 year parameter...Green is beyond 'choice of food or transportation or me'...pack your bags to Nebraska to erect windmills!  Hey docs, you guys are well just too well paid at $250K/yr. and National Healthcare is going to be your employer...just who is that going to be...skipped Medicare , not anymore?  Detroit killed domestic car development by Union meddling for decades, that becomes with Nancy's 'card check' instant Union in your face (Honda, Toyota, Nissan, Safeway, the other 92.5% private employees)and paycheck reduction..or rather NO SAY contribution to the Democratic Machine.........the smile on SF Pelosi' face isn't because she and they aren't gearing up to the Denver Conventions' fireworks, it's the grab of all grab that they feel in that 'Yes We Can' statement!  
November is about many things, but giving the out of sorts Democratic party a wrench to tweak your life and others in ways you haven't nightmared awake thinking something horrible just happened to someone you know will be a 'it's your life hell now' theme.
Come fall, Vote responsible.

Obama's whiney wimp Ah ah uh Duh

It's telling the more we see of someone whether the connection is there or not, relevant to the relationship that is material to the decision that sometimes more is less.  Take for instance this past Saturday' Saddleback interview when the president to be (if elected)  couldn't with a straight face answer even this question, " When does life begin?"  The prepositioning of an answer is enough to bother many of us that pay attention, especially the guy from south Chicago, but to then skip to the party's fringe special interests to avoid an honest or intelligent response, the World audience got , "it's above my pay grade."!  What message did that send?  As a Harvard Law grad and a Christian with having helped to produce at least two children , one would expect a more evolved answer than essentially saying 'duh'.  Today he trips his campaign conversation to a press question to McCain about how many homes he owns, well married to a rich woman and at 72 who seems to spend more time helping Ted Kennedy with legislation than counting places he gets to sleep at, says to me that McCain isn't a 'gold digger', and Barak's quibble is a distraction about nothing much.  However the charity of a man can be measured, the McCain's have adopted very needy children...yet this week,  http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/uselection2008/barackobama/2590614/Barack-Obamas-lost-brother-found-in-Kenya.html , a story breaks that Obama has a younger brother that according to Italian press account lives on less than a dollar a month, for a person that wants to give 'fairness' a bigger plug line as a means to taxing some Americans yet more, who gave $20,000 to his church after making millions on a book that most high elected office seekers would have donated to charity, he couldn't see the Christian self side benefit to lend his 'fathers own blood a helping hand'.  How many of us will be tempted to send his brother George a check in the amount of a measly annual magazine subscription knowing that that would quadruple his annual spending!   It's been common for so many democratic candidates to lecture from the stump, start a sentence and drift within several times without ever finishing the statement or question, again this past weekend Barak fell back on the weasle plan and began with his usual "ah ah uh" and finished with "it's above my pay grade"!  I'm not sure what job application that would be acceptable if required, but for me that doesn't get my VOTE come November.  I expect my President to know when life begins.

Speaker Pelosi's leftist Policy Fosters Obecity

It's incredible that the MSM report so little news that should be a template for the American mind to digest in front of an important election, but that just doesn't happen anymore where the 1st Amendment is shrouded in gilded speak. Today it's reported quietly that there are now 36 states that have elevated obecity ratings, exaserbated by high food prices, (inflation), primarily the out-product of high energy prices.  It's no wonder if the various fuel tanks that aren't connected to some "green source" that the economic flow through is getting to be a rough ride for everyone remotely connected to breathing on a regular basis. So the 'news' that wallet constriction has resulted in not only billions of fewer traveled miles,(otherwise spelled as some sort of fun), has caused the pantry to exhibit similar indigestion, which was the news not heard.  All the 'alternative' eating  for cost reasons, any wonder, last year you could buy chicken for less than bananas, or apples for beef or pork...well that has reversed, all the while the cost of fuel has lent a previous substitution to now even other food choices..which are more carbohydrate centric and less 'healthy eating' oriented.  So the liberal coalition of Sierra Clubbies and NO-DRILL friends are exacting a real toll, we'll leave the NEA out today, their no exercise policy for the friends of trial lawyers is so well known for lazy children...or the living wage that is like math&science to GDP+inputs=outputs doesn't =2, that as the Democratic party says they care about the 'little guy', really they just throw head mud at your temple and think that you're too stupid to get the trail of what comes from where and what it took to do the exercise!  Every day that I eat out of our garden and don't have to compete in the grocery store I feel that I've contributed to competition at the checkout counter without encouraging the tax man or some other liberal misdirected idea taking root in a solution that was the result of BAD POLICY, just ask Nancy from San Francisco.  If phantom energy years out is doing anything to solve your mortgage payment or even keep your dinner choice stable then you live in a world that is even more microscopic than the food that I appreciate from our garden, but that isn't the macro of America, and Pelosi doesn't get the number picture anymore than who paid for her last plane trip home as Speaker.

SOROS partly to blame for Putin's Georgian revenge?

There are many camps on the net regarding George Soros, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soros_Foundation, a simple search will deliver a smorgasborg of choices of whom to read. It's known that his big dollar day was to play currencies, best the British pound to a huge payoff, and then on to smaller countries to wreak results that caused more pain than any foundation or MoveOn.com political motivations will be substitues for reconcilliation.  It's been no secret that the world's tortilla, rice, gas, ethanol, and other impoverishment train wreck price escalation is related to the crude oil price escalation, which any look at corresponding charting movement in print publications, whether the relationship of dollar to commodity or the resulting situation;  http://online.barrons.com/article/SB121824504292826521.html?mod=9_0031_b_this_weeks_magazine_main, the manipulation of currencies, the MSM would like to blame on the generic of Hedge fund speculation, but the genious of the sport is George Soros,  http://www.telegraph.co.uk/money/main.jhtml?xml=/money/2008/05/26/cnsoros126.xml.  So the guy that spawned the curse of personal wealth creation by trashing currency in the global market with (artificial pool) of funds to do what Putin with his surrogate President just did with tanks after back knifing GWBush while together in Beijing, then like the 'Thin Man'  moving to another preset venue to gorge on innocent senior citizens happy to be living like Minnesotans in Georgia, a free republic, chose to run the American dollar to record lows against most money equivalents contrary to his public flatulence, gave the Russians, and all oil/energy suppliers unparalelled 'currency trade' wealth.  Some countries invest in infrastructure, building artificial islands with grand buildings and ideas of stars to the future, the Russsia crowd is happy to be back to the future with the ugly of what they ARE, unhappy campers in a cold place that just cannot find help coping with their past nor secure about a future, guided by a guy in a girls white ski coat that GS' dollar speculation gave him more mojo than the world can tolerate.

Putin's thorn, Bush's 1st view

The left press wants to make the incursion by Russia into Georgia a revisionist statement about what GWB said 8 years ago about looking into Vladimirs' eyes and seeing his soul, oh well.  The tradgedy of that public global airing probably with a further historic viewback will show that GWB was the thorn that Putin couldn't any longer contain!  Just check the manuevering that  VP Putin has done to if not get approval to a 3rd term as president, now as PM, and second in command to his handpicked 'puppet' successor, President Medvedev, with a USA presidential election that stages the unusual of senator VS senator, the EU a wimp to police their own petty affairs and certainly not willing to offer more than commerce of cars and booze, left the dimunitive poorly dressed guy from the KGB to retaliate against senior citizens in a 'broke away' soveriegn country with not much more than "hope" and aspirational desire of self governance!  The icy veins of the Russians just cannot get past their past...human misery is a constant, anger management hasn't become a UN mandate for incorrugable countries that don't seem to recognize the calendar. For those caught in between there is humanitarian supplies if they get them, it seems the bullies to the north already had a tent city near Beslan, that horror death hole,  to replace what had been 'home' to them..all this to save them from the Georgians! What would benefit the World would be for everyone to recognize that the Russians need  'their territory' be respected as one would  livestock, fenced and closely watched,  but no expansionist behavior permitted without proper legal acquisition  that even a miscreant UN could approve.

russia VS Georgia & where are the usual useful IDIOTS?

When do the Europeans  see bombs visited upon their eastern borders of slow accumulation of cultural identity (NATO) and say so little and don't admit that they are so unprepared to do much about it but plead 'out of bullets' sort of? 
If this were GWB's adventure of war making every Sean Penn look alike would get his Katrina motorless boat on the program with a big microphone connected everywhere, but since the communist past present got military school right but  foreign policy Instutute F grade, still walk like they have Tony Blair' Beatles '60's tight where a 19 year old might go!......Russian President Dmitry Medvedev  whose Drudge posted picture shows he might need to lay off the meds, says that " Russia can't deal with Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili because they can't get along with a soveriegn governing democratically elected representative, well they can't get along inside their territory with most anybody...even the business folks that they continually rip-off and send to Siberian gulag, just ask BP, yea those in your face ads for phantom energy while they suck stupid to difficult neighborhoods like Vladimir Putin's and Dmitry Medvedev  recent difficulty in maintaining a corporate investment with these seen somewhere old Hollywood movie stole the loot types. Tony Blair before leaving office new well that the plutonium 210 that killed Litvenenko wasn't an accident.  GWB has it right when he says this isn't going to happen in the 21st century,.....In Washington, Fratto countered: "President Saakashvili is the duly elected president of a sovereign democratic nation and so the determination of him as president is his decision and a decision for the Georgian people and not for any outside nation to make demands on whether he is the appropriate person." ,
who is going to be backup, squishy Belgians or german beerboys?  In America with a congressional standoff with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and her democratic party brigands deleting domestic oil drilling within our borders for the use of  imaginary energy while most everyone is still connected to what works.... just leads a Putin to play a Georgian pipeline hand to advantage! 
Plenty of fingers can point to stars but when will adults that have big bullets at heir disposal realize that an apartment house isn't an appropriate target?  Russia thinks old, they live cold and human misery is their cultural iceberg heart to Earth, for the foreseesable future...just ask Vladimir.
 How many UN Security Council Resolutions did Moscow's trigger happy good old (1950's) rules players achieve before they decided to play hardball with senior citizens in Georgia?
