I can’t believe Instapundit linked this NYT nonsense:

Updating the Rules for Skin Cancer Checks

Now, before you again don warm clothes, is a good time to note how much sun damage you incurred this summer. Are body parts that were not covered darker or more freckled than the skin you were born with? If so, you failed to cover your exposed skin and protect it adequately with sunscreen when out on both sunny and cloudy days.

Morons. Maybe Glenn meant it as a joke.

I was sitting there watching Obama propagandize to the world about his health care agenda, attacking the opposition, blaming Bush, calling the opposition liars, saying how easy it will be to pay for  the giant power grab, dragging Ted Kennedy’s body through the streets, and I was thinking, what a joke. If Obama were trying to get away with feeding such non-sense as he was feeding to the Congress to a non-rigged townhall meeting, a citizen would stand up and “call him out” on it.  And then, as if on cue, lo and behold, someone shouts out “You Lie!”

Bravo!  Bravo!

As Obama stands before both houses of Congress, the nation, and the world calling those who oppose his agenda liars, (if ‘bogus’ and ‘misleading’ mean something else forgive me),  these fucktards we elected to Congress, save for one, sit on their hands and keep their mouths shut like good little boys and girls lest they get in trouble from the grown-ups–except for one. One lone dissenter. One person with the courage to stand up and call a spade a spade.

Oh, that’s right. Challenging the president while he is propagandizing to the world is bad form. We can’t have that. There’s no place for it there or anywhere else, according to the whack job McCain. It’s disrespectful to the institution. The very institution that has run this once great nation into the ground. Not only does the institution deserve no respect, it needs to be shuttered until we can figure out how to reinstitute the constitution.  I don’t send a representative to Washington to respect the institution nor the institutionalized.  This may sound weird, but I send a representative to Washington to represent me. Rep Joe Wilson represents.

I don’t see how Rep Joe Wilson could disrespect the office any more than Obama is already doing. Pelosi and Reid are running Congress for Gods’ sake. What a joke. The tax cheat  Charlie Rangel is chair of Ways and Means. What a joke. Sec Treasury is a tax cheat as well. What a joke.Cass Sunstein believes animal should be able to sue people. What a joke.  The Green Czar beleives George Bush was behind 9/11. What a joke. The whole fucking thing is one big fucking joke… on us.

Whats the use in being alive if you have to live in a society like this:

A “pandemic response bill” currently making its way through the Massachusetts state legislature would allow authorities to forcefully quarantine citizens in the event of a health emergency, compel health providers to vaccinate citizens, authorize forceful entry into private dwellings and destruction of citizen property and impose fines on citizens for noncompliance.

This may go over in Mass, but I don’t think it’s a very good idea for down here in Texas. Count me out.

I wish Sherman Frederick published a newspaper like the Las Vegas Review-Journal in Houston. Sherman Frederick, on political oppression:

We’ve seen cattle ranches give way to railroads. We chronicled the construction of Hoover Dam. We reported on the first day of legalized gambling. The first hospital. The first school. The first church. We survived the mob, Howard Hughes, the Great Depression, several recessions, two world wars, dozens of news competitors and any number of two-bit politicians who couldn’t stand scrutiny, much less criticism.

We’re still here doing what we do for the people of Las Vegas and Nevada. So, let me assure you, if we weathered all of that, we can damn sure outlast the bully threats of Sen. Harry Reid.

Ha ha. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid is a two-bit, bully politician. I’m thinking Sen. Reid might want to start thinking about his next job as a lobbyist.

The only glimmer of hope big liberal media has in this new era of long-tail fact-checking is to cover whats going on at FoxNews. There are 93 pages of comments on this LA Times story about Glen Beck reporting on Van Jones, former liberal activist  with a group called Color of Change and current liberal activist helping Obama run the country.

Of course the story is biased right from the beginning:

Glenn Beck used his popular Fox News show this afternoon to attack the background of Van Jones, a White House environmental advisor who co-founded an African American political advocacy group that organized an advertising boycott of his program.

So reporting on a member of Obama’s administration is an “attack.” Racist at that.

This and articles like it are probably the only thing that get any hits over at the LA Times, mostly from Beck supporters in this case. You’d think the publishers would figure something out.

The Chicago Tribube gets similar results with their article on the subject. Check out the first paragraph of Tribune story :

FOX’s Glenn Beck used his popular program today to “attack the background of Van Jones, a White House environmental advisor who co-founded an African American political advocacy group that has organized an advertising boycott of his program,” as the L.A. Times’ Matea Gold notes in Show Tracker.

So reporting about another outlet’s reporting of whats happening at Foxnews seems to work as well.  Politicians would do well to note the comments run about 95% anti-administration,

A perfect example of why California and America are failing:

Hoping to raise money for a family trip to Disneyland, the Tulare girl opened a lemonade stand Monday. But because Daniela didn’t have a business license, the city of Tulare shut it down the same day.

The girl probably now owes the city a couple hundred bucks in fines.

The economy is failing. The state is bankrupt. I’m sure the city of Tulare, CA is in decline as well and yet they see no problem or connection with stamping out the tiniest business enterprise.

When a liberal says they are gooing to help small business, you know they are lying through their teeth.

You must hand it to the black race mongers, like Al Sharpton. They are good at what they do.

You got to love how once they saw that there were some people who were not going to fall into line with the instant beatification of the King of Pop Tarts, they deftly began to frame the conversation as racial, as they do with every conversation (they are after all race mongers) and then when anyone says anything negative about Michael Jackson, they are quickly labeled a racist. That’s enough to make almost anybody shut up.

We just went through the same thing during the presidential campaign. Criticize Obama and you are a racist. Don’t vote for Obama and you are a racist. Obama is a perfect illustration of how effective and dangerous the technique is. We are stuck with Obama because a handful of Americans, relatively speaking, voted Democrat so they could prove to their friends and maybe to themselves that they are not racist.

If Obama is not bad enough, then for another illustration of how effective and dangerous the technique is just look at the Islamic terrorists; the terrorists operate the same way as Al Sharpton and all the other liberal special interest groups. The fascists, communists, and the American liberal left learned the technique from them. It’s the same with all community organizers I guess. The Muslims make everything about Islam as they go about doing whatever it is they want to do. To then criticize anything they say or do is to criticize Islam.

The beauty of it all is how simple the scam is to operate. It’s so easy to do that even Morons like Sharpton, Pelosi, Barney Frank, Ted Kennedy, Al Franken, (insert your favorite retard liberal here) can do it. Here is how it works in general:

1. Make up a cause, real or imagined, herein referred to as “The Cause.”
2. Create a frontman for The Cause
3. Have frontman espouse policy of The Cause
4. Label any criticism of the policy as being against The Cause.

Here is a small list of some of the most popular political scams going today:

• Islam
• Racism
• Global Warming
• Women’s Issues
• Gay Rights
• Animal Rights

The propagation of radical liberalism via strict enforcement of Political Correctness on these and so many other issues is just another form of terrorism.

Everyone is trying to get in on Michael Jackson’s Final Act and for some reason make a big racial stink out of it while they are doing it.

We are pleased to announce the new VFXY Photo Weekly Theme:
Race: Black or White
In most societies and by some anthropologists, color terminology was used to label races, sometimes in addition to a non-color term for the same race. RIP M.J.

Yeah, RIP MJ and good riddence! Maybe the Lord can help straighten you out. But what a lame, blatant attempt to cash in on good ole MJ one last time by VFXY and, it would seem, everyone else on the planet.

Wonder if there will be something like this:

SHAMWOW!
There has always been a class of folk called huckters, snake-oil salesmen, and pitchmen. RIP Billy May’s.

Or even something that would make better sense for a effin photo site:

Beautiful BLondes!
They may be ditzy but they are fun to have a round. RIP Farah Fawcet.

Farah Fawcet got robbed.

Who didn’t see this backsliding coming?

“The truth is, we and everyone else misread the economy” -Joe Biden

The truth is that’s a lie. I didn’t underestimate how bad the economy is because I live in it. And I don’t underestimate how bad it’s likely to get.  Its going to get a lot worse, especially if the new taxes embedded in Cap and Trade and Health Care Reform are passed. It doesn’t take a genius to see this coming, folks.

All Biden and “everyone else” who according to Biden had their collective heads up their ass needed to do is  ask anyone who actually lives in the real world and who possess  a lick of common sense, like Joe the Plumber, and they, too,  could have understood perfectly how bad the economy was and is. But no, they would rather piss on Joe the Plumber and pass their socialist agenda even if it means the ruination of you,  your family, friends, and neighbors along with the destruction of the world economy, proliferation of nuclear weapons, and all out war in the middle east and Korea.  After all, you can’t let a serious crisis go to waste, according to Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel.

After Obama is finished with his turn at the wrecking ball I’d expect to see a rash of black politicians leave the Democrat Party since a black liberal wont be able to get elected to dog catcher for a hundred years.

And all this time I thought he was a closet Muslim.

Metro or what? Is that Anger or Scorn on his face?

From Drudge today:

• Iran Revolutionary Guard threatens protesters...
• NKorea threatens to harm USA if attacked...
• Al Qaeda says would use Pakistani nukes on USA...

Mr. President has sure had his work cut out for him. Too bad he doesn’t have a clue about anything other than social organization and political trickery. One thing about tyrants and bullies, like the lunatic Muslims  — not the peaceful ones — is that they know how to spot and take advantage of weakness.
