Dino thought Obama said "Spread your cheeks," which is why he got so excited.

JOE McCARTHY was right about the RED MENECE

Be sure and check out "Blacklisted by History," by Stanton Evans -- McCarthy was more than merely right about the Red Menace -- which appears to have caught up to us now, fifty years down the road, with the drones voting in a radical Marxist to "change" this country completely, into a Chavez/Castro style "people's democracy" where certain people rule and all the rest work the fields for bare subsistence wages (or should I say, "scraps"?).
Hope you wanted Clinton III, drones, cause that's what you're about to get, with a Maximum Leader Leftist at the head (well, merely a figurehead) and Clinton-era re-tread elites telling you what you can and cannot do, what you can and cannot drive, how far you can drive, how much (or little) heat you can have (freezing your asses off there this winter, drones? Oh, baby, you ain't seen nothin' yet!), etc.

THE NOBEL POLITICAL PRIZE
Does the Nobel Peace Prize Selection Committee ever rescind one of its priceless awards and demand return of its money? If not, it should.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), divvied up the Nobel Peace Prize (Nobelpriset, in Swedish) cash with Al Gore in 2007, splitting the approximate $1.6 million award. Both should cough up their shares since neither has advanced the cause of world peace even an iota.
Gore should have rejected it on the spot, given the fraudulent nature of An Inconvenient Truth, the “documentary” which won him an Academy Award in Hollywood and which must have convinced the Swedes that he knew what he was babbling about. He didn’t, as shown by, among many other sources, this Canadian analysis which described the award as a “travesty:” http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/261.
Now the IPCC has been outed for what it truly is, a group of intergovernmental blowhards pretending to be climatologists committed to saving the planet from itself–and from Americans dirtying up the atmosphere. In actuality, the IPCC now concedes its dire predictions as to the effects and even the existence of global warming aren’t even predictions. Rather, they are “projections:” http://canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/7116.
The IPCC began its word play in 2001 when it altered its nomenclature: “Projections are distinguished from predictions in order to emphasise that projections involve assumptions concerning e.g. future socio-economic and technological developments that may or may not be realised and are therefore subject to substantial uncertainty.”
Huh? Simplified, that means the IPCC admitted it guesses the future and may very well be totally wrong. Expressed another way, it assumes the climate’s future is predicated on what could happen, and we all know what happens when we assume.
I’m guessing those climatologists looked out a window, sniffed the air, and decided to hedge their language though not their cataclysmic “projections,” which are dependent on which direction the political winds are blowing. In the case of the IPCC, its prevailing winds are always blowing from the Left of the political spectrum.
It’s sad really what has happened to the Nobel Peace Prize. It is now conferred...

Al Gore fired scientist for putting science ahead of politics on Global Warming.
Kind of sounds like what the left accuses Bush of doing. Of course, whenever the left accuses the right of doing something, you can be pretty damn sure its because the left is already doing it.

Seacows at NOW demand cabinet level office of women. In other words, they want to maximize the amount of mens' paychecks they can divert to increasing misandry, promiscuity and abortion.

Envirokooks same old tricks - replace harmless substance with worse things, cause human suffering
The icy streets are the result of Seattle’s refusal to use salt, an effective ice-buster used by the state Department of Transportation and cities accustomed to dealing with heavy winter snows.
“If we were using salt, you’d see patches of bare road because salt is very effective,” Wiggins said. “We decided not to utilize salt because it’s not a healthy addition to Puget Sound.”
Instead, they’re using sand — which is even more damaging to the environment, as other city officials point out:
“We never use sand,” said Ann Williams, spokeswoman for Denver’s Department of Public Works. “Sand causes dust, and there’s also water-quality issues where it goes into streets and into our rivers.”
End result of this moron policy?
“Sunday was full of car crashes, even after several pleas from State Patrol and local police to stay off the roads.
The State Patrol responded to 157 collisions Sunday in King County. …
Between noon and midnight on Saturday, the State Patrol responded to 246 collisions … in King County.” “Snow: Sunday Traffic accidents by the numbers”

I am sure that all of the people hurt and traumatized in car accidents will thank you for it by working to get all you voted out of your offices.
Idiot moonbats!

nb.: Puget Sound is saltwater.

Seattle afraid to use salt on the streets because the runoff will pollute Puget Sound? Need I remind all that Puget Sound is an arm of the Pacific Ocean, and already a salty environment. Pump water out of the Sound and use that on the streets...THINK PEOPLE!!
Posted by: Cliff47 at December 24, 2008 5:55 AM
I hope Seattle ends up buried under megatons of ice looking like something out of The Day After Tomorrow.
Ok, Puget sound is salt water because its linked to the Pacific Ocean. So adding a little more salt is going to do what? Sure, if theres a more cost effective solution use it. But to endanger peoples lives because of the econut left? Well, Seattle is one city Id never move to. In fact all of the Left Coast is off limits. Besides, once the Superquake hits and brings Mt. Ranier back to life the who area will look like it was nuked. I for one wont donate a nickel to any relief effort. 2 cents maybe. But thats about it.

Yes, the GailyKos is quite unhinged, and they said they're not going to shut up about it, otherwise Obama will do what he wants, or some such. So, they're just boiling in their own oil over there. All the power to 'em.
I would not move to Seattle, either. Any town run by liberals has been run into the ground. I visited Seattle on business a few years back. Their street beggars are ungrateful. Nuf said.

The Democratic Underground release their Christmas wish list:
"The Wealthiest 1% Should Immediately Have ALL Of Their Assets Seized"
"Never mind the Bush tax "cuts", it's time to roll back the REAGAN tax "cuts". I'm also in favor of a 100% "death tax" for inherited income. . . ."
"Will Obama be our hero and seize the assets of the top 1%?"
"If they ever sell lottery tickets for gutting and skinning them, I'll be first in line with an assortment of Ginsu knives"
"Wouldn't it be interesting to examine who wrote the Constitution and how it represented certain vested interests. . . . Not too difficult to see who identifies with the ruling classes here."
And the money quote:
Obama views the constitution as a list of negative values so maybe he can change it.. Then we can make the greedy wealthy pay.
Feel the love! Via Dummie Funnies.
So.. Um.. Can we please dispense with the objections to anything Bush does as "unconstitutional," now that they've made abundantly clear their real opinions on that document?
(Apologies for posting this in two threads, thought it was too good to risk missing Van Helsing's notice in the previous thread)
