Hurricane Paula, Trapped Miners and Political Speculation Adds Up to MSM Heavy Breathing.
I haven’t had my TV on yet today, but the excitement of Hurricane Paula going in circles after popping up almost overnight must be permeating the airwaves. Add that to the political guess-work plus the speculation about miners soon to be dragged back up from hell … I think I’ll listen to music while I catch up with news online where I don’t have to listen to the heavy breathing.

National Organization of W… – Big Journalism
I could say it, too, but why bother. Susan did just fine. 🙂

Jerry Brown’s campaign conspired to commit political rape, calling Meg Whitman, his female political opponent, a “whore.” And he got N.O.W.’s political endorsement for doing so. The liberal beauty mask is so off the wrinkled, geriatric, age-spotted National Organization of Whores (yes, only a woman could write that so I just did).

This kind of news really gets to me. I expect to see stories about troops not faring well after being placed in harm’s way, but the pictures my mind conjure up from a report like this just turn my stomach.

The statement said Norgrove “was killed at the hands of her captors in the course of a rescue attempt last night,” according to Bloomberg News.

No Social Security Cost of Living Adjustment … Again
10/10/10 <—- I knew nothing good could come of this.
Funny how the economy is so bad that my food costs keep going … up!?
WASHINGTON (Oct. 10) — As if voters don’t have enough to be angry about this election year, the government is expected to announce this week that more than 58 million Social Security recipients will go through another year without an increase in their monthly benefits.
Iranian Nuclear Scientists Executed Over Stuxnet Virus?
DEBKAfile’s intelligence sources report information reaching the West in the past week that Iran has put to death a number of atomic scientists and technicians suspected of helping plant the Stuxnet virus in its nuclear program. The admission by Ali Akbar Salehi, head of the Atomic Energy Organization, on Friday, Oct. 8 – the frankest yet by any Iranian official – that Western espionage had successfully penetrated its nuclear program is seen as bearing out those reports.

“Hope n’ Change Cartoons: You Want A Peace Of Me?!”
It’s always been obvious to thinking people that no one man can ever be the single driving force behind world peace. It’s going to take the combined efforts of all the leaders in the “free” world (this reminds me of herding cats, not to mention what free is interpreted to mean these days).
Alas, liberals have been resigned to singing and making movies about it – until a year ago when the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to Barack Hussein Obama II. Of course, the event accomplished nothing more than to bolster the Hope part of Obama’s famous slogan. Change, to the extent of achieving world peace, is nowhere to be found. The Libs keep singing.

It was exactly one year ago that Barack Hussein Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize – not because of anything he’d done, but because hopes were so high that he would create peace with his promises to speak reasonably and without preconditions to any politicians in the world, including blood-drenched anti-American lunatics.

President Obama May Soon Declare War … On YOU!
If “hand-to-hand combat” breaks out on Capitol Hill – if the president refuses to moderate his agenda and the Republicans have to constantly fight the president to enact the will of the voters – Mr. Obama is quite mistaken if he thinks he will be at war with a Republican Congress.
Mr. Obama will, in fact, be at war with the American people.

Mukwonago High must give up Indian logo and name – JSOnline
Another PC-run-amok ruling from Berkeley Wisconsin. 89 years of pride for a small community destroyed by liberal morons in Madison, WI. One more erasure of the diversity they claim to cherish; one more symbol of this country’s history white-washed by a power trip.
R.I.P.
Madison — Mukwonago High School will have to give up its Indian logo and team name within a year, under a state order issued Friday.The school does not intend to appeal the ruling by the state Department of Public Instruction, said Principal Shawn McNulty.

Here’s a great visual from the L.A. Times showing the potential for a dramatic reversal of power for lawmakers in Washington D.C. Save yourself some time by clicking on #3- Democratic Nuclear Winter. The other two are boring. 🙂
