		<description>Having such a mindset renders objectivity impossible.  It's a filter.  It only lets through what reinforces the original premise.  Everything else just bounces off.  

If you're objective, you recognize that both the positive and the negative possibilities are real.  You support one set of possibilities and resist the other.  Generalized negativity is worse than useless.  It's the first thing we need to overcome if we want to pull the country out of its downward spiral.</description>

		<description>ARRRRGH!  There is no escaping Obama! I can't believe I am paying HBO to have Fraud's inauguration on three HBO channels!

However, I will be glued to the television when he is found to be an illegal fraud:)!

Eligibility battle rages on 3 fronts
Court, Congress and college challenged on constitutionality

Officials at Occidental College in Los Angeles, Calif., have been served with a demand to produce records concerning Barack Obama's attendance there during the 1980s because they could document whether he was attending as a foreign national – in one of three fronts now established by those contesting the president-elect's constitutional eligibility for the Oval Office.

		<description>You accuse us of being paranoid. Actually we question the veracity of your candidate and you obamabots. I have yet to see anything approaching the truth about your candidate mainly because he is keeping it a big secret. What's up with that, toodles?

No, we aren't paranoid. You, on the other hand, are a gullible, soft-headed waste of genetic material who thinks That One is the greatest American who ever drew breath. 

On second thought, I'd rather be "paranoid" than stupid like you.</description>

		<description>The LA Times' Tim Rutten -- my favorite op-ed writer -- has a book review today that draws on Richard Hofstadter's elucidation of "the paranoid style" in American politics.

Much to be appreciated here, as Hostadter's description fits NQ to a T:

&lt;blockquote&gt;"One of the impressive things about paranoid literature is the contrast between its fantasied conclusions and the almost touching concern with factuality it invariably shows....It produces heroic strivings for evidence to prove that the unbelievable is the only thing that can be believed."
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Apocrypahl Kenyan birth records, anyone? Larry Johnson tape? Impending Russian invasion of Alaska? (That last one was for trixta). ;)

Check it out.

		<description>I have a feeling that when Obama and his family are done with their time in the White House they will many many more  records in the White House; mostly financial.
I have this sinking feeling that the Obamas feel that there is no limit to their expense accounts as long as the American taxpayers pay for it. Let the Amercians tighten their belts a bit while the president and his family lives high off their backs.</description>

		<description>The train ain't a-comin'; it's a leavin' with the rest of our cash that Bush and Cheney failed to take with them. That One is just going to finish another job this Administration didn't complete.

Thanks a lot, bushbots and obamabots.</description>

		<description>Did anyone see Chris Matthews this morning admit that he was in on the scam since Obama's keynote speech at the '04 convention.  Matthews aired this comment from 2004:  "I think the immigrant experience combined with the, with the African background combined with the incredible education, combined with his beautiful speech, not every politician gets help from a speech. But that speech was a piece of work!"  THE FIX WAS IN--WE FELL FOR IT.  Who is going to hold the pundits, media, ININFORMED PUBLIC accountable down the road for this con?</description>

		<description>I think that on Wednesday morning the photo-ops and partying will just continue. There will be lots and lots of useless, unproductive, well phtographed "meetings." "Officials" and "experts" will continue to party hardy at the White House and nothing, NOTHING will "change." It will probably take the entire 4 years for everyone to get totally PO'ed about it and even then the far left will continue to opine about how wonderful it all is.At that point the Republicans will present us with their own version of a "saviour" and 52% of the country will go for that. What a racket!</description>

		<description>This is going to be a movie weekend. 

B movies are always funny but if they get really bad, I'll just pop in an Al Pacino movie.

Did anyone hear about this new gangster movie starring Johnny Depp? It's set in Chicago. Sounds interesting.

My family is in D.C right now. I'll probably give them a call, just to check in.

Another also: Someone is publishing an Obama comic book, kinda based on Spiderman.

My mom pre-ordered a dozen of them for herself and her friends. By this point, she doesn't want to hear any of my smart ass comments about Obama, real close to cussin me out so I don't talk to her about him anymore. Thanks for the site Larry!

...I did agree to stop by to start her car everyday though.</description>

		<description>I'll watch the Blowing-Sands channel, thanks, rather than listen to that overbearing wind turbine. Others that won't be showing Obamacus include:

The Drying Paint Channel,
The Growing Grass Channel, and
The Dripping Faucet Channel.

Take your pick, any would be more enlightening and edifying than the Other Channels devoted to the adoration of That One.</description>

		<description>Here is a little truth that the Canadians seem to see and that our own MSM fail to acknowledge (or complicit in hiding it).


From SavagePolitics.com:

2. Will George W. Bush end up being the last true US President?  Increasingly, it seems that he just may.  As lawsuits against President-elect Barack Hussein Obama—questioning his US citizenship—continue to grow, he ever more adamantly continues his refusal to produce his real, viable and original birth certificate. CONTINUE TO SOURCE

I don't he has the merits to be called anything but an ursurper.
I do believe we will have a great AA President one day but he is not the ONE.</description>

		<description>True, Michelle seems to be reigned in pretty well.  As one report said a few weeks back, her going to the White House as the first AA First Lady is even more historic than Obama's since he is bi-racial rather than AA as he has presented himself.  She is a descendent of slaves.  That is being judged by some as a higher accomplishment.

However, I don't buy that she is a victim of the Jackie O talk that she can't live up to.  I suspect imitating the former First Lady by wearing the strands of pearls and similar designer clothes was of her own doing.</description>

<p>However, I don&#8217;t buy that she is a victim of the Jackie O talk that she can&#8217;t live up to.  I suspect imitating the former First Lady by wearing the strands of pearls and similar designer clothes was of her own doing.</p>

		<description>I totally get why AA's are so completely invested in this and are out of their minds with excitement.  The young AA boys and girls whose music teacher tearfully announced they were going to the Inauguration.  It was quite moving.  It is very evident that this experience has been electrifying and will no doubt have a life-long effect on them.

 However, how disgusting that they have been so deceived into thinking this man won the nomination away from Hillary fair and square.  Also that they think BO is so much more brilliant than he really is.  That BO has accomplished so much when he has done virtually nothing.  That he was the mastermind behind his presidential campaign that is being called 'brilliant' but he had virtually nothing to do with any of it.  That he is being compared to Lincoln and JFK when there is no basis for that other than his own suggestions and that of a handful of overzealous media people. 

Such lies.  Such deceit.  I have thought in recent days, maybe it would have been better had I not found out the truth and could be celebrating what would otherwise be quite an historic event and one that I would have otherwise loved.  In many ways, however, this election is worse for me than the election of 2000.</description>

		<description>It looked sureal to me and all I felt was dread. I was particullary disturbed by the pic of the amost empty rail station in Washington. For some reason, it reminded me of an episode from "The Twilight Zone". We watched a segment from the speech, I think in Balitmore, and I literally gasped when he said, "When Americans are knocked down, they always get right back up". I dug my Hillary tee shirt out and showed it to my husband. Remember, "For anyone whose been knocked down and got right back up"? The little speech writer who was pictured with his hand on the breast of a Hillary cut-out is STILL stealing from her. Unlike many here, I feel a little twinge of pity for Michele. She is brought into the spotlight only when it can't be avoided and has had to listen to comparisons to JackieO instead of being allow to be herself and create her own legacy as the first Black First Lady. I would prefer her true anger any day over her husband's invented and empty persona.</description>
