July 11, 2011

Thank You, Ann Althouse, and All Others Like You, for Voting Obama in 2008

AD Commenter Sandy Daze speaks "truth to cower" in responding to yesterday's The Ann Althouse "I voted for Obama because" issue comes down to this:

I cannot blame Prof Althouse--after all, she's a lawyer and no doubted voted because Voldermort is one of her own kind.

In truth, she and others did us several favors by voting for and electing Voldermort.

FIRST - they introduced us to Sarah Palin. All of my support goes to Sarah Palin. Should Sarah Palin not gain the Republican nomination, I will support whomever does. ABO.

SECOND - The TEA PARTIES were formed in direct response to Voldemort's actions. Ordinary Americans quietly going about their business trying to lead lives of Freedom and Liberty suddenly realized--in response to the betrayal by elected leaders--that they had power to respond.

THIRD--Voldemort has simply accelerated the traducement of the Constitution by BOTH parties and most bureaucrats. Fact is, we were (are) all being boiled alive; a Republican administration (except for Sarah Palin) would have taken and was/Was/WAS taking us to the same place as Voldemort, only more slowly, turning up the heat more gradually. With Voldemort, the heat has increased rapidly, and Americans across our great country are saying !Nada Mas!

So, thank you Prof Althouse and all your ilk, if it had not been for your "rational" intellect, we'd be slowly cooking away in a stew created by the other group on "know-betters" oblivious to the traitors in our midst.

(Heh - you you too, Prof Althouse, I include among the group of "know-betters" I suspect as someone else mentioned that you will probably vote for Voldemort once again, upon your rational consideration of the alternative. I do not understand how someone like you can be mugged by reality and still not see what is in front of you. You go to the State Capitol, reporting worthy of a Pulitzer, and still claim hang on to your lib shibboleths. You and Juan Williams are two peas in a pod.)

As it is, the jig is up, we know what they were about, and we are fighting back.

Take good care,

Sandy

Third party, anyone?

Ann, "rational" doesn't mean what you think it means. Please look it up.

I believe war is coming. I want a president who is suitable for leading the US during a war: a woman who has hunted, killed, and gutted her own food. I don't someone who life consists of moot courts and business meetings.

Third party and throw away votes will absolutely guarantee Obama a second term.

Just as the morons who "stood on principle" and voted for Ross Perot got Clinton elected.

Oh I know I know I know ..a RINO like Romney will be "as bad" and is also just as "big government" as the Dems. Boo f--king hoo.

Push for a true conservative all your want in the primaries, but then suck it up and vote for the guy who must defeat Obama.

Why? Here is a free ticket to the clue bus: There are 4 reasons that separate the worst possible RINO from Obama (besides the fact that none of the GOP candidates actually, you know, HATE America) and necessitate his defeat:

Alito
Roberts...versus...

Sotomeyer
Kagan

Vacancies are coming up from 2012-2016. Not only in the SC but in lower fed courts across America.

What the Leftists cannot win in the ballot box, they will impose from the bench with their judges. Second Amendment rights among other freedoms are currently hanging on by 5-4 majorities. You want all the circuits and the SC to be like the 9th? Giving Obama 4 more years to pack the court and shape it for the next 20, could end up destroying this country. And no that is not hyperbole.

I find your use of the word "jig" in this article extremely offensive. Raaaaaacist!

Christ, I hate to admit it, but SouthernJames has a damn good point!
Unless your third party can guarantee a win, it will give it to the bad guys

Re 3rd party

NRA's Keene: "Obama Gone in 2012"
That's a bold prediction but it's what NRA President David Keene told US News' Washington Whispers according to this post yesterday.

"Our major goal is to defeat Obama because if he's re-elected, he's going to attempt to change the Supreme Court. All he needs is one vote and he will rewrite the Second Amendment," says Keene. "The threat," he says, "in many ways is more severe than in 2000." One reason: Obama, who slapped gun owners in his campaign, has gone quiet on gun issues as president, making it harder to rally NRA members. That was until gun foe Sarah Brady revealed in April that Obama told her he was working on the issue "under the radar."

Keene is correct that a second Obama term could spell disaster for our rights, much less the country. What is less clear is whether the NRA effort that worked so well in 2000, will resonate in 2012. In 2000, the economy was considered to be humming along. In 2012, unemployment is likely to be well above 8% and could be the 9% it is today. In that type of environment, the economy is likely to overshadow any other issues that folks may in other circumstances deem important.

Fer cryin' out loud!

Hold yer nose if ye must, but vote out the socialist.

SJames is absolutely right.

Southern James, You got it right. ABO -2012!!

Posted by: Jimmy J. at July 11, 2011 9:43 PM

The liberals ignore 100 million dead bodies from community tyranny around the world and every economy afflicted with socialism on the verge of economic collapse, and they never consider changing their mind?

What more do conservatives have to know about their friendly neighborhood liberal before they recognize these people are cult members. You no more reach them through facts and logic than you talk an anorexic out of starvation by weighing them and using a mirror.

If I hear one more Johnny Come Lately tell me that Obama's latest outrage has finally made him embarrassed to be a Democrat I'll take hostages at the nearest Whole Foods. The precious moderates and independents are nothing but uncommitted liberals. Your friendly liberal is willing to experiment with burning down Western Civilization in pursuit of indifferent experimentation, while ignoring all lof us for decades yelling "fire" in a crowded culture war.

While we mock the liberals for never noticing the damage they are doing everywhere please recognize our side is still attributing liberal atrocities to liberal ignorance. It's not an accident that they are only ignorant of that which allows them to pursue our destruction.

Liberals are happy to burn the country down, and they will, so long as nobody is rude enough to point out their crime in a social setting. Your friendly liberal is a Typhoid Marry at best, but always give him/her the most polite consideration possible or you might not be invited to join the Mayberry Rotary Club.

I'm voting ABO. I've always taken the Anyone But a Democrat approach, i.e. straight Repub. And don't blame me for Bill Clinton - I had nothing to do with that. But I don't see anyone who can win. Americans knew exactly what they were getting when they cast their votes for Barack Obama. And that includes the professor. In fact, I am SURROUNDED by people like her. I was forever banging my head against the wall during the campaign cycle, to no avail. My kids were accused of being racists by the children of Obama supporters before it was over, despite my own fact-induced cool observation of all this emotionalism, sober examination of the 2 major party candidates, and... OBVIOUS CHOICE!

Don't mean to be party pooper here, but we won't win the executive in 2012. I'll take BOTH houses of the legislature, but re: the judical... thanks the elite, guilt-ridden voters like the professor.

We can only fight it at the state level, so turn your attention AND ENERGY to your local elections, where Republicans have the advantage.

IT'S SIMPLY TOO LATE TO SCREAM ABOUT THE SCOTUS.

It's too late for that argument and we don't have a Reagan to answer our Carter this time around. It's going to come down to state sovereignty. And guns.

And yes, I hope and pray that I am wrong on all these accounts. But I also knew, based on the strange Obama spell that took over the "professors" all around me here, that Obama was going to win. What did surprise me was that he only won by less than 10 million.. I think it was.

Romney can't win. Pawlenty can't win. I'm with the one blonde worthy of her outspokeness, Ann Coulter, who says Bachmann, Cain and Palin can't win. ABO can't win. Sorry.

Were there a Christy or Ryan or Rubio in the fight.. then perhaps. But there isn't.

What happened to Rudy? I think he would have a chance, which guarantees Romney will win the primaries. What's the phrase.. Republicans thirst for... ABO? I don't think that's correct.

Posted by: RedCarolina at July 12, 2011 7:11 AM

Red, there will never be a successful third party short of outright revolution. Every single county board of election in America is run by D's and R's. There is no way to undo this fact, and it is the central fact of why a third party can't be successful.

Posted by: Casca at July 12, 2011 9:06 AM

As long as there is no 3rd party candidate that sucks away any sort of percentage of the vote; and as long as the GOP candidate is one is is willing to go on the attack and NOT be all genteeel, and polite like McLAME was -- which eliminates John "Obama loves America just like I do, we just disagree" (GAG me!!) Huntsman; and if the GOP candidate picks a runing mate who can create a buzz and possibly swing a state that went Blue last time to Red....we have a prayer.

I realize those are big "ifs"

Rubio on the VP ticket swings Florida back from Blue in 08 to Red. I am a Floridian. I 100% guarantee that. That is huge. He prevents the hispanic percentage from going one more point to Obama, and instead probably swings it by a few points.

I think a Romney CAN win...as long as we don't have the "Waaaah, he's a corporatist, Wall Street, Big Govt RINO, so I'm staying HOME again," crybaby effect from registered members of the Stupid Party. Or..."Oooooh, Mormon is such a weird religion!!" Bah.

Look - if a few things happen.....The bloom being off the rose, so that the African American turnout drops by 15%; the Jewish percentage for him drops from 78% to 60%; the White woman percentage for him drops from 58% to 52% (or whatever it was) the White male turnout increases by a few percent and the GOP edge goes up from 52% to 57%......if the 250,000 or so (?) disgruntled crybabies who would have voted for Ron Paul or Ross Perot if he was just on the ticket dammit, but instead stayed home an pouted instead of keeping State Senator Lightweight from the White House - come back out and pull the lever for the RINO this time....just to try to slow down our destruction....

Then the GOP certainly has a fighting chance to beat Obama.

A Rick Perry- Herman Cain ticket? You telling me that can't win?

Posted by: southernjames at July 12, 2011 9:15 AM

I used to think Perry's likeness to GW would ruin him before the campaign even started, but ironically, it might actually help him this go-round.

If you can, catch Book TV's interview with Charles Hill of the Hoover Institute re: his book on the Islamic world view. Man, it made me miss GW.

Even Southern Sudan, success in (or at least closure of) Iraq and Afghanistan, hell, even the fucking Arab Spring can be credited more to GW than Obama. (lol! now what was that question Couric asked Palin again? about the Bush doctrine? lol! Even the social youths of Europe are giving GW credit now, while Eric Holder still wants him tried.. for war crimes.)

Yes, james - you not only convinced me.. you have me salivating over a Perry/Cain ticket! haha.

Posted by: RedCarolina at July 12, 2011 10:21 AM

The Book TV interview is available, in full, on the Book TV website - just look for Charles Hill, Trial of a Thousand Years. Well worth your time and truly an optimistic angle on the Bush Doctrine - which was REFRESHING!! God, I needed it. We all need it right about now. Can't wait to read the book.

Posted by: RedCarolina at July 12, 2011 10:28 AM

Althouse, Obama, and all the lawyer politician judges are the same. They never study the Constitution but instead study precedents. If you wonder why the precedent based on a precedent based on a precedent and on and on never equates to one of the Bill of Rights...just consider that they view all law as living-breathing and can't wait to get their name on a precedent or bill. And that, of course, is to "improve" our poor ignorant lot. Pricks one and all.

If Gov Palin runs, she'll win:

Palin Electability Series tells how and why.

A Senator DeMint, Rubio or a Representative Bachmann, West or Ryan would be icing on the cake.

For everyone else, I use: ABO as my guide.

Take good care,
Sandy

Posted by: Sandy Daze at July 12, 2011 3:01 PM

Sure, let's vote for anybody with an R after their name. That'll work.

Posted by: rickl at July 12, 2011 5:28 PM

Actually, in these conditions, that will work quite nicely.

Posted by: vanderleun at July 12, 2011 5:34 PM

Once more into the breach.

Posted by: Jewel at July 12, 2011 5:38 PM

It's quite difficult to say if Palin hurt the McCain ticket, as some like the professor might argue, or if it was the other way around. Palin can hold her own, but I think she'll simply fire up the opposition. And I think Mormonoia is as bad as Palinoia, so I don't think Romney will win. The other Ann (as in Coulter) pointed out that the Repub front-runner tends to get the nomination (McCain?) which means Romney will likely win the primaries. And I think Obama will win in that case. It's going to be very difficult to beat Obama because he has a very real advantage of being the incumbent. We've never had a president who held both the incumbent advantage and the race card advantage simultaneously. It will be another difficult choice for professors all over America.
