Beware of Wooden Horses Bearing Sweets

1?

But please be careful you aren’t accusing people of being empathy trolls without some kind of knowledge of their history. I see a lot of innocent people getting accused of trolling, many of whom have been here for at least months, who are to the best of my knowledge on our side. Maybe not dyed in the wool PUMAs or NQers from before PUMA, but still they seem like good folks to me.

I hate seeing those false accusations. It sounds so childish sometimes. But most often it reminds me of Monty Python’s Holy Grail scene about witches. “We’ve found a witch! May we burn her?”

I know, a devilishly tempting thought, isn’t it?

Can it get any worse than Obama camps??

Probably a bit tangential to this thread, but just thought I would put up the transcript of a short interview of Sarah Palin by Hugh Hewitt today…

HH: Governor Sarah Palin, welcome to the Hugh Hewitt Show. Great to have you.

SP: Hey, thank you so much. Nice to hear your voice.

HH: Governor, your candidacy has ignited extreme hostility, even some hatred on the left and in some parts of the media. Are you surprised? And what do you attribute this reaction to?

SP: Oh, I think they’re just not used to someone coming in from the outside saying you know what? It’s time that normal Joe six-pack American is finally represented in the position of vice presidency, and I think that that’s kind of taken some people off guard, and they’re out of sorts, and they’re ticked off about it, but it’s motivation for John McCain and I to work that much harder to make sure that our ticket is victorious, and we put government back on the side of the people of Joe six-pack like me, and we start doing those things that are expected of our government, and we get rid of corruption, and we commit to the reform that is not only desired, but is deserved by Americans.

HH: Now Governor, the Gibson and the Couric interview struck many as sort of pop quizzes designed to embarrass you as opposed to interviews. Do you share that opinion?

SP: Well, I have a degree in journalism also, so it surprises me that so much has changed since I received my education in journalistic ethics all those years ago. But I’m not going to pick a fight with those who buy ink by the barrelful. I’m going to take those shots and those pop quizzes and just say that’s okay, those are good testing grounds. And they can continue on in that mode. That’s good. That makes somebody work even harder. It makes somebody be even clearer and more articulate in their positions. So really I don’t fight it. I invite it.

HH: Have you followed the attacks on you, say, via Drudge or the blogs? Some of them are just made up and out of left field, others are just mocking. Do you follow those?

SP: No, I sure don’t, and thank God I don’t have time to follow those. You know, I think that those shots, too, though, no matter what we’re taking and receiving, it’s nothing compared to what real shots are against Americans in this world. Americans today who are worried about losing their home and figuring out how in the world they’re going to pay their fuel bill next month, and send their kid to college, and may be worried about losing a loved one that they’re sending off to a war zone to protect our rights. Those are the shots that Americans are taking, so all this political nonsense and the lies, the rhetoric that is spun out there about someone just trying to offer themselves up in the name of service to this great country, I’ll take it.

HH: Governor, you mentioned the people who are struggling right now. Have you and your husband, Todd, ever faced tough economic times where you had to sit around a kitchen table and make tough choices?

SP: Oh my goodness, yes, Hugh. I know what Americans are going through. Todd and I, heck, we’re going through that right now even as we speak, which may put me again kind of on the outs of those Washington elite who don’t like the idea of just an everyday working class American running for such an office. But yeah, there’s been a lot of times that Todd and I have had to figure out how we were going to pay for health insurance. We’ve gone through periods of our life here with paying out of pocket for health coverage until Todd and I both landed a couple of good union jobs. Early on in our marriage, we didn’t have health insurance, and we had to either make the choice of paying out of pocket for catastrophic coverage or just crossing our fingers, hoping that nobody would get hurt, nobody would get sick. So I know what Americans are going through there. And you know, even today, Todd and I are looking at what’s going on in the stock market, the relatively low number of investments that we have, looking at the hit that we’re taking, probably $20,000 dollars last week in his 401K plan that was hit. I’m thinking geez, the rest of America, they’re facing the exact same thing that we are. We understand what the problems are. It’s why I have all the faith in the world that John McCain is the right top of any ticket at this point to get us through these challenges. It’s a good balanced ticket where he’s got the experience, and he’s got the bipartisan approach that it’s going to take to get us through these challenges. And I have the acknowledgement and the experience of going through what America is going through.

HH: Governor, when you say things are tight right now, is that simply because of Todd being off not working? Or is it because of extraordinary demands on the fiscal resources of the Palin family? What’s the situation there?

SP: No, it’s just the great financial crisis that America is in as our savings accounts also, and a 401K, they’re being hit.

HH: Sure.

SP: Our stocks, you know, they took a hit yesterday. And then of course, just the same thing that other Americans are asking themselves today. We’ve got three teenagers. How are we going to pay for their college education? How are we going to make sure that we’re investing wisely today. We’re putting a lot of faith in other people who are using our money as investments. We have to count on the federal government to be overseeing these agencies and entities, making sure that we’re not going to get screwed on this deal, and that our savings are safe. So there again, John McCain’s got some great ideas on granting authority, for instance, to the FDIC, making sure that our deposits are insured. He wants to increase that deposit insurance cap of all of our money, our savings, from $100,000 dollars up to $250,000 dollars, so that families like mine, so that we don’t have to worry about our money being safe or not under FDIC.

HH: Governor, let’s turn to a couple of issues that the MSM’s not going to pick up. You’re pro-life, and how much of the virulent opposition to you on the left do you attribute to your pro-life position, and maybe even to the birth of, your decision, your and Todd’s decision to have Trig?

SP: Yeah, you know, I think that that’s been probably the most hurtful and nonsensical slap that we’ve been taking is our position that we have taken, pro-life, me personally, and saying that you know, even though I knew that 13 weeks along that Trig would be born with Down Syndrome, and I said you know, he’s still going to be a most precious ingredient in this sometimes messed-up world that we live in. I know that my son is going to provide a lot of hope and a lot of promise in this world, and I’m so thankful of course that I’ve had the opportunity to give him life and to bring him into this world. But I think yeah truly, that that’s been a hurtful slap that we have taken, because people just don’t understand. Ironic too, Hugh, that some would consider my position on life and trying to usher in a culture of life, respecting the sanctity of life in America, that that is seen as an extreme position when to me, an extreme position is one that Barack Obama took when he was in the Illinois State Senate, not even supporting a measure that would ban partial birth abortion, not even supporting a measure that would during, after a botched abortion and that baby’s born alive, allowing medical care to cease and allowing that baby to die. That to me is extreme. That’s so far, far left it’s certainly out of the mainstream of America. To me, that is the extreme position, not my position of just wanting that culture of life to be respected, and not wanting government to sanction the idea of ending life.

HH: Do you think the mainstream media and the left understands your religious faith, Governor Palin?

SP: I think that there’s a lot of mocking of my personal faith, and my personal faith is very, very simple. I don’t belong to any church. I do have a strong belief in God, and I believe that I’m a heck of a lot better off putting my life in God’s hands, and saying hey, you know, guide me. What else do we have but guidance that we would seek from a Creator? That’s about as simple as it gets with my faith, and I think that there is a lot of mocking of that. And you know, so bet it, though I do have respect for those who have differing views than I do on faith, on religion. I’m not going to mock them, and I would hope that they would kind of I guess give me the same courtesy through this of not mocking a person’s faith, but maybe perhaps even trying to understand a little bit of it.

HH: Governor, let’s close with some foreign affairs. It is reported that you had an Israeli flag in your governor’s office. You wore an Israeli flag pin occasionally. One, is that true? And two, why your support for Israel?

SP: Well, it is true, and I ran into Shimon Peres recently at a meeting, and he even pointed that out. He said I saw a picture of you on the internet, and you had an Israeli flag in your state government office, and I said I sure do. You know, my heart is with you. And all of those trials and tribulations throughout history that Israel has gone through, not only does that allow me to want to support that country, but Israel is our strongest and most important ally in the Middle East. And they are a democratic country who I believe deserves our support, and I know that John McCain believes as I do that Israel is our friend, and we need to be there to support them. They are there for us, and I do love that country.

HH: Last question, Governor. Have you and Todd heard from your son? And how is it on your nerves having your son deployed?

SP: That little stinker, I guess he’s called his girlfriend a couple of times, but can you believe he hasn’t called his momma yet? He’s over there. They were just leaving Kuwait heading into Iraq, and I am just so extremely proud of Track, my son, and all of the men and women, of course, serving in the military. I’m proud that my son made this independent and very wise decision as such a young man at 18, deciding you know, he realized there’s something he can do to help, to contribute, to help protect our nation, and I couldn’t be more proud of him and all those who choose to serve in our military. They’re serving for the right reasons. God bless them, God love them.

HH: Governor Sarah Palin, look forward to talking to you again, good luck on Thursday night.

SP: Thank you so much. Talk to you soon.

Hey,

I just voted for Obama/Biden in Ohio! I took advantage of the early voting there. There was a slow trickle of people until some vans turned up laden with college kids all chanting “Obama, Obama”.

What a great day!

It’s true that the Obama supporters are using the tactics explained on the HufPost blog. Believe it or not my own brother who lives in Ohio tried to pull the talking points on me. Let me explain. I am an AA female Hillary supporter and one of 10 living sisters and brothers. Eight in the family support Obama two of us do not. In the past we had heated discussions about our choices but we simply don’t talk about it any more. They are incredulous knowing that I do not support Obama. Very recently my brother called me pretending to talk about other issues then used the talking points trying to indirectly persuade me to support Obama. I told him in no uncertain terms that Obama was a lying, race-baiting, race-agitator in the mold of George Wallace and that I would never, ever vote for him. I had not read the HuffPost piece at the time. When I read it shortly afterward, I was so angry at his sneaky approach. We are a close knit family and Obama has relly caused strains in my family relationships. I detest him for that.

If This Sarah Palin Shows Up Thursday Night, Biden is Toast

Hugh Hewitt interviewed Governor Palin on his show today. It seems that the campaign got the “Free Sarah” memo from those on the right who wanted her to stop doing the stilted, edited, gotcha interviews with Gibson, Couric, et al., and let her be herself. She is great in this interview. She calls herself Joe Sixpack.

Good I hope they all vote for Obama and then when he is forced to drop out of the race none of their votes will count!!!

Ha! Ha!

Country First!

Happy New Year !!! Let’s hope it is a good one!

Thanks for all you do No Quarter.

Lie, pretend, act empathic deceive, trick, misinform, whatever it takes to convince

That sounds just like Barky’s platform and narrative. This is the way he has run his campaign and now he is teaching young people how to lie, cheat, and deceive. Do we need a president who teaches the young how to decieve? NOT!

Great cartoon, Pat.

Ob’s goon squad will have lots of work to do when Rezko rats him out. Rezko’s sentencing hearing begins Oct. 28, and Rezko is deeply involved in the corrupt Illinois political machine, as is OB.
Fitzgerald, please file the indictments that you and your staff have been working on NOW, before the election so the public will have the facts in hand before casting their vote.

Donna “we don’t need them”, the “UNCOMMITTED DELEGATE”, you can’t repair the damage through Ob’s supporters “tricking” the undecideds and anti-obama voters.

Women shouldn’t have the right to vote.

If you buy a house and it belongs to the bank.

Why if it needs a new roof you have to pay for it?

look at this new development from atty Berg:

Philip J. Berg, Esquire, the Attorney who filed suit against Barack H. Obama challenging Senator Obama’s lack of “qualifications” to serve as President of the United States, announced today that he filed his Opposition and Brief to Obama and Democratic National Committee [DNC] Joint Motion to Dismiss in the case of Berg v. Obama, No. 08-cv-04083.

Berg feels confident that he has “Standing” and the Court will allow the case to go forward. Our response was due in 14 days, but the Court requested our answer by Monday, September 29, 2008 and we complied.
In our response we set forth sufficient reasons that I have “Standing” to bring this lawsuit. Furthermore, I set forth additional reasons that indicate Obama does not meet the qualifications for President of the United States and Obama should be removed from the ballot and held accountable.

Our website obamacrimes.com has received 17.1 + million hits. We are urging all to spread the word of our website – and forward to your local newspapers and radio and TV stations.
Berg again stressed his position regarding the urgency of this case as, “we” the people, are heading to a “Constitutional Crisis” if this case is not resolved forthwith.

For copies of all court pleadings, go to obamacrimes.com.

To the Obama trolls:

McCain will win Florida, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Michigan. But even if Obama wins, you will still be you–how sad. You’re not fooling anybody.

So, watch out for Obama supporters bearing nice-nice.

That’s funny. If any of them will be nice we will know it is insincere and within 5 minutes they will get pissed off and have a temper tantrum anyway. Remember the last time they were ordered by Herr Goebbles to be nice? It lasted maybe 5 minutes.

It’s so easy to unmask them though, because as soon as you say you are not supporting Obama, they start to twitch, and then, within seconds, they are screaming about how you JUST DON’T BELIEVE IN HOPE YOU RACIST BITTER OLD HAG! They can’t help themselves.

The irony is when you read the comments in that Huffpo thread the O-bots continue to insult Hillary supporters. They can’t help themselves. They’re obsessed. It’s like a mental disorder.

Call it anti-Hillary Tourette’s syndrome.

Another outstanding cartoon, Pat. The curious, expectant looks on the faces in the group, the defiant hands on hips stances of some members suggest they are suspicious about whatever may emerge from the horse. Very skillful work obviously went into this cartoon!

I get lots of come-ons from the Obama people, some signed by O’Plouffe and some by Obama urgng support and, and of course, contributions. They are wasting my time and theirs, but fortunately, I have an almost worn-out delete key and spam filter that gets lots of action.

Early in the campaign, as a prank, a couple of Obot supporter friends slapped an Obama sticker on top of my Hillary bumper sticker in a restaurant parking lot. I knew who did it, and as soon, as I got home, I removed it I send them lots of links to anti-Obama articles from No Quarter. I also send links to No Quarter articles to Democratic clubs who have lots of Obot supporters.

As for the coaching of Obamamaniacs on how to seduce Hillary supporters, it appears that whoever prepared the document Uppity referred to clearly underestimated the intelligence and awareness of anti-Obama people. The tactics used are shallow and disreputable. In past elections, dirty tricks have often been associated with the Republicans, but it is clear the practice of being nasty and spreading lies is not the exclusive domain of either party. We can expect more innuendo, distortions and outright lies from segments of both parties as we near the election. These will be picked up and spread by the media in newspapers, blogs, YouTube videos and TV reports and talk shows.

Maybe we should just watch the debates, turn off the spin doctors, avoid the shit-slingers and make up our own minds who to vote for in November. After all, we are in control of our own votes. Last I heard nobody holds a gun to your head when you enter the voting booth.

Have you noticed something about this cartoon? The round seal. I have never seen in all my years in politics a candidate enforce this seal on the american people. If it was the flag- I would salute Obama or Mccain, but a Seal- and a ugly one at that. Obama needs to get rid of this circle called the seal, it is scary enough to know that he is being presented as the Revelation prediction of “forcing everyone to worship the seal” but it is pretty close to the actual prediction. If he doesn’t want the religious front to see him as the “one with the seal and the evil one that was warn of by our Prophets”, I suggest he take it down and put the United States flag instead. Maybe some of us would overlook his messiah ego self and wish him well . But, of course that won’t happen-he thinks he is G-d and he is here to save mankind.
