Are Obama’s Followers REALLY past the whole ~partisan~ divide?

October 27, 2008

UrbanGrounds makes an interesting discovery:

I really want to believe that State Rep. Rick Noriega (D-TX) is a decent, honorable man. I give him this benefit of the doubt almost entirely because he is a Lt. Col. in the Texas Army National Guard.

That carries a lot of weight with me.

Which makes some of the tactics from his campaign hard to stomach.

The tactic in question comes from none other than the unhinged Noriega Online Campaign Director, Karl Thomas Musselman over at the Daily Kos:

This election is our chance to destroy the Republican Party and its leadership. John Cornyn is now looking to become the most powerful Republican in Washington once Bush expires and McConnell is retired.

I’ve touched on the subject before, but Noriega gladly embraces Kos and has even asked supporters to help win a competition to get a fundraiser from the Daily Kos.  Remember Daily Kos is the group that has said “Happy Twin Towers Day” in celebration of 9/11.  This group and Karl Thomas Musselman should be denounced.

Yet, this very party is the one that claims decency, openness, honesty, bipartisanship and centrism…even though their beliefs lean wayyyyyy over to the Left.

On the campaign trail, Mr. Noriega has stated that he wants to represent all Texans. However wanting to destroy the party that represents the majority of our state’s citizens, doesn’t exactly sound like ALL Texans to me.

It sounds more like he’s only interested in representing Democrats and Liberals.

Yet, remember when Noriega was given the national stage with all eyes on him at the DNC this year…he took the opportunity to apologize for Texas.

Thanks but no thanks, Rick.

I personally like our Obama jam better:

Palin Likeness Hung From Noose ~it’s art~

October 27, 2008

Can you imagine if the likeness of Barry O. or Nancy Pelosi had been hung by a noose for the world to ridicule, excuse me ~behold as art~?

Why no!  It would be RACISM and VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN!

Al Sharpton, Eve Ensler, Gloria Steinem, Joe Biden, John Kerry, the media and Kos would run to the Left’s rescue!

But for Palin?  A media double standard:

Yet conservatives are deemed ~mean~ and ~nasty~ by the MSM for asking Obama about his comments on redistributive wealth or how his policies compare to the rise of socialism and Karl Marx.

How dare we.

Hot Air has more:

Let’s say someone created an effigy of a certain national political candidate and placed a noose around its neck, and then put the effigy on display for the neighbors to see this Halloween.  What kind of reaction would you expect to see?  People would start screaming about the Jena 6 and the latent racism of the American voter, and would assume that the neighborhood was located in a red state where people bitterly cling to their guns and religion.

But wait: the national candidate in question isn’t Barack Obama, and it’s no red-state neighborhood — not by a long shot:

How about a word from the disturbing artist:

[Chad] Morrisette said his display might be unacceptable any other month, but his subjects are fair game during the Halloween season.  “It should be seen as art and it should be seen within the month of October. It is Halloween. It’s time to be scary. It’s time to be spooky,” Morrisette said.

America, Chad Morrisette and all the people who find this ~artistic~ and ~funny~ or maybe even ~spooky~ feel free to hang the likeness of any candidate from a noose and see what kind of a reaction you get.

I assure you, should you do this to Barack Obama it wouldn’t be so funny to Hollywood and the MSM.

What’s scary and spooky about all this?  These are the people who support Barack Obama.

A Halloween decoration showing a mannequin dressed as vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin hanging by a noose from the roof of a West Hollywood home is drawing giggles from some passers-by and gasps of outrage from others.

The mannequin is dressed in brunet wig, glasses and a red business suit. Another mannequin dressed as John McCain emerges from a flaming chimney.

Road Block to Change

October 27, 2008

Barack Obama has one thing standing in his way of socialist change should he be elected this November.

Maybe we should be clinging to our religion and guns, considering his view that the Constitution “is a fundamental flaw in this country” it’s only fair we feel we have to cling to our Amendments.

Obama’s Redistributive Wealth Message

October 27, 2008

Say it ain’t so, Joe!  Looks like our man Joe the Plumber was onto something…

Check out this newly released clip of a radio interview Sen. Obama had in 2001…

Socialism?

You betcha.

Michelle Malkin posted the transcript:

If you look at the victories and failures of the civil rights movement and its litigation strategy in the court. I think where it succeeded was to invest formal rights in previously dispossessed people, so that now I would have the right to vote. I would now be able to sit at the lunch counter and order as long as I could pay for it I’d be o.k. But, the Supreme Court never ventured into the issues of redistribution of wealth, and of more basic issues such as political and economic justice in society. To that extent, as radical as I think people try to characterize the Warren Court, it wasn’t that radical. It didn’t break free from the essential constraints that were placed by the founding fathers in the Constitution, at least as its been interpreted and Warren Court interpreted in the same way, that generally the Constitution is a charter of negative liberties. Says what the states can’t do to you. Says what the Federal government can’t do to you, but doesn’t say what the Federal government or State government must do on your behalf, and that hasn’t shifted and one of the, I think, tragedies of the civil rights movement was, um, because the civil rights movement became so court focused I think there was a tendancy to lose track of the political and community organizing and activities on the ground that are able to put together the actual coalition of powers through which you bring about redistributive change. In some ways we still suffer from that.
