Apparently, Holder Has Other Things To Do »

By Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy on Nov 20, 2009 in 9/11, ACORN, Barack Obama, California, Crime, Current Affairs, Dept. of Justice (Obama) | 31 Comments

Than look at ACORN. Yet, the hits just keep on coming. There is another tape out from James O’Keefe of filmmaker James O’Keefe and Hannah Giles going to ACORN offices in an expose of the lengths to which ACORN workers will go to assist in setting up an underage prostitution ring. Here [...]

Would An Abacus Help To Accurately Count Jobs “Recovered”? »

By Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy on Nov 18, 2009 in ABC News, Bamboozling, California, Current Affairs, Economic Stimulus, Economy, Employment, Joe Biden, Stimulus Plan, Unemployment, Vice President | 45 Comments

Recently, Vice President Biden reported that the Stimulus Program had created a huge number of jobs. If you have 41 minutes to spend to watch him - what the hell is the matter with you?? Oh, no wait - sorry. Ahem. I meant to say, if you have the time, you [...]

(Bumped up from November 7th.)
The current issue of Time Magazine has Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on the cover, and an article by Joe Klein entitled, “The State of Hillary: A Mixed Record On The Job.” On Joe Scarborough the other morning, they discussed this article (major H/T to Bronwyn’s Harbor for the video):

(Yong Kim/ MCT)
Due to the tragic events at Fort Hood yesterday, this post was delayed out of respect for those who were lost and wounded. Our thoughts and prayers are with their families, friends, and all those serving at Fort Hood.
Bleary eyed, but sated with my celebratory Belgian pecan waffles, turkey link sausages, numerous [...]

Who’s Coming To Hang Out With Obama In Our White House? »

By Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy on Nov 3, 2009 in ACORN, Bamboozling, Bush administration, California, Campaign promises, Chicago politics, Current Affairs, Dick Cheney, Energy Policy Act of 2005, Flip Flopping, General Election, George Bush, George Soros, Hillary Clinton, Hoodwinking, Lobbyists, MSNBC, Media Bias, MoveOn.org, Oprah, President Barack Obama, Richard Daley, Tax stimulus package, Ted Kennedy, Tom Daschle, Transparency, Unions, William Ayers, Women, World | 21 Comments

You may recall that when Bush was president, it was like pulling teeth trying to find out just who had visited the White House. Let’s just say he dug in his heels a bit on releasing that information. Maybe it had something to do with Cheney’s “secret” Energy Meeting, who knows, but it [...]

“What If Bush Had Done That?” »

That is a question I have asked myself time and time again since Obama took office on a number of issues, including expanding the Faith Based Initiatives, or my fave, the incredibly unConstitutional “Prolonged Detention” of American Citizens, holding them in custody indefinitely without charges.
Turns out I am not the only one who [...]

Fall Classic - Game 1 - Phillies at Yankees **Open Thread** »

By Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy on Oct 28, 2009 in Congress (House & Senate), Current Affairs, Florida, George Bush, John McCain, Pakistan, President Barack Obama, Sexism | 82 Comments

Tonight kicks off the World Series. The Phillies meet the Yankees at Yankee Stadium, with the game starting at 7:57 (why do they pick such weird times?). The game will be broadcast on Fox (sadly - that means having to listen to Tim McCarver and Joe Buck go on and on. No [...]

What A Bunch Of Racist Hicks Here In South Cackalacky »

By Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy on Oct 14, 2009 in Civil Rights Act of 1964, Congress (House & Senate), Current Affairs, Hillary Clinton, Michelle Obama, Race Card, Racism, South Carolina | 36 Comments

At least according to my representative, Jim Clyburn. Let me just say that this is not at ALL what I had planned to write about this morning. I was going to write about the Senate Finance Committee voting on a bill that hasn’t even been written out yet, more a theoretical bill, if [...]

Correction: Make That $5 Million »

By Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy on Oct 6, 2009 in ACORN, Barack Obama, Chicago politics, Crime, Current Affairs, Earmarks, Louisiana, New York Times, Unions, Valerie Jarrett | 88 Comments

Oh, boy. This doesn’t look good for ACORN, not that much does these days. You may recall that Dale Rathke, one of the two founders of ACORN, had embezzled $1 million dollars, according to this NY Times article. That became the widely accepted amount, not that that embezzlement stopped our government from [...]

Wow, that Charles Krauthammer really knows how to turn a phrase. As does French President, Nicholas Sarkozy. Oh, yeah. Check out this article, Obama’s French Lesson:
“President Obama, I support the Americans’ outstretched hand. But what did the international community gain from these offers of dialogue? Nothing.”
– French President Nicolas Sarkozy, Sept. 24

Just Doing What Needs To Be Done »

By Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy on Oct 2, 2009 in Congress (House & Senate), Current Affairs, Education, Health Care, Jimmy Carter, Soldiers/Veterans, South Carolina | 31 Comments

The past few weeks, okay, MONTHS, have been fairly contentious: fights on Capitol Hill about Health Care Reform; the race card being played again, by a former president, no less; heightened concerns by those in the know about Afghanistan; our children being indoctrinated; and Hollywood Elite calling for the freedom of a convicted rapist and [...]

Children Singing In Praise Of The One »

You are not going to believe this video below. I don’t care what your political persuasion is, this should ring alarm bills, raise red flags, and generally cause major concern.
If this isn’t indoctrination, I don’t know what is:

A Pat On The Back Will Make It All Better? »

By Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy on Sep 22, 2009 in Bamboozling, Current Affairs, Democrats, Hoodwinking, New York State, Pandering, President Barack Obama | 61 Comments

You may have heard that this weekend, the White House strongly suggested that David Paterson, the current governor of New York, really shouldn’t consider a run in 2010. You know, the way only Chicago politicians can: leak out a strong encouragement, deny that they did any such thing, and make it seem like they [...]

Pulling “Back The Curtain On ACORN” »

I came across an article the other day, and was really taken by it, especially as it came out in the midst of the undercover videos by James O’Keefe, four in total thus far, with more to come, which have gone far in exposing the underside of ACORN. O’Keefe’s staggering videos can be found [...]

President Obama Isn’t Shedding Any Tears Over Katrina Victims »

By Ani on Aug 29, 2009 in CNN, Hillary Clinton, Louisiana, Obama Administration, Obama's Broken Promises, President Barack Obama, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Stimulus Plan | 48 Comments

Actor/author/director/satirist Harry Shearer wrote an excellent commentary for CNN about his “adopted hometown: “Does Obama Care About New Orleans.” First he discussed the encouraging news that the city is becoming a leader in charter school enrollment, working to clean up local politics and is a city once again “throbbing with energy” but then [...]

It’s All About The Connections »

By Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy on Aug 11, 2009 in Chicago politics, Corruption, Current Affairs, Education, Illinois, Obama Comrades, Rod Blagojevich, Tony Rezko | 30 Comments

One might think that as a minister type, I am talking about how connected we all are, one to another, all over the world. Well, okay, there is this, “Respect for the interdependent web of all existence of which we are a part,” one of the Seven Principles and Purposes of the UUA, to [...]

Joe’s Running! A Race to Watch »

By Pat Racimora on Aug 4, 2009 in Pennsylvania, Rep. Joe Sestak | 29 Comments

Here is his heartfelt declaration–worth a watch!

Last May, my cartoon (reposted below) was about “David” (Joe Sestak) thinking of running against “Goliath” (Arlen Specter) for United States Senator from Pennsylvania. When long-time Republican Specter dumped the GOP because polls showed that he would not win a 6th term in 2010, he decided to run [...]

I got an email recently from an organization that has impressed me, VoteVets.org. As their name implies, they work hard on behalf of our veterans. They work not just on behalf of our veterans, but all those currently serving in the military. The email was on the issue of “Don’t Ask, Don’t [...]

Who’s The Feminist? »

By Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy on Jul 6, 2009 in Current Affairs, Education, Feminism, Greta Van Susteran, Linda Anselmi, McCain/Palin 2008, New York State, Sara Palin | 104 Comments

Recently, my fellow NQ writer, Linda Anselmi, found this article, which she kindly shared with me. It is quite an interesting take on why some women are so threatened by, um, no, wait, that’s not how the author, Ann Marlowe, would phrase it. More for her, why they don’t like her, as the [...]

And God Said… »

By Rabble Rouser Reverend Amy on Jul 3, 2009 in Current Affairs, Governance, South Carolina | 47 Comments

“Put a sock in it!” Well, that’s what I would think God would say to Governor Mark Sanford who canNOT keep his big mouth shut these days. See, Governor Sanford said that God wants him to keep his job as governor, and to not resign. Here’s a little reminder:

I wonder where in [...]
