That Horrible Well-Dressed Mob:
Category Archives: Uncategorized
What The Demorats Think of YOU:
On Monday, August 10th, Nancy Pelosi and Steny Hoyer wrote an opinion piece in USA Today. Go here for the complete link.
This editorial was entitled: “‘Un-American’ attacks can’t derail health care debate.”
The very first sentence is an absolute lie:
Americans have been waiting for nearly a century for quality, affordable health care.
Do you know how employer-offered healthcare came about? Because, at the end of World War II, various employers sought to offer a perk to returning soldiers that other businesses did not. Simple as that.
However, it is now evident that an ugly campaign is underway not merely to misrepresent the health insurance reform legislation, but to disrupt public meetings and prevent members of Congress and constituents from conducting a civil dialogue.
An ugly campaign. Right. That “ugly” ability to state, verbally and in writing, your dissension with whatever policy or bill might be proffered by your federal government.
Nancy continues to write in this editorial:
These disruptions are occurring because opponents are afraid not just of differing views — but of the facts themselves. Drowning out opposing views is simply un-American. Drowning out the facts is how we failed at this task for decades.
So, let it be known now: Demorat Nancy Pelosi deems dissension on ANY of HER issues to be unpatriotic.
Despite dissension having been embraced for decades — until Conservatives seem to be finding their voice.
Trial Lawyers own the Demorat party.

Sunday Ponderings
I’ve had another Week From Hell. Today, Sunday (as I write this), is my first “official” day off in a while. And, oddly enough, I’m using it to write on the internet. But, as I’ve stated before, I find writing to be cathartic and a release — even bordering on relaxing. With these exceptions:
I happen to be a fan of the now-defunct TV show “Boston Legal.” I enjoyed the acting and particularly the interplay between James Spader and William Shatner. Certainly their episodes predominantly consisted of left-leaning plots but I can enjoy many things on many levels — (why I subscribe to The Nation, read Daily Kos and other Leftists. I can’t simply shut myself up into a cocoon, slit my own wrists and then drink my own blood for sustenance. It is, in my estimation, vitally important for me to know what the Left is saying, writing and thinking) and “Boston Legal” did have some great bits and scenes. Denny and Alan in the parking garage confronted by the robber? Classic Denny Crane.
Jackboot #1: We have the White House officially wanting lists, names, numbers, addresses of those persons who deign to dissent from the prevailing philosophy in power. Not covertly; oh no. Overtly and with the complicit tolerance of the DEM/MSM — nary a peep in disapproval. Switch the facts: what if Mr Bush had done this COvertly? I’m certain you can do the mathematics required.
On Thursday of this past week one of our female Sergeants was killed in a traffic accident on the way to her new work site. Her small car, a Toyota MR2, was jammed out of her lane when another female, who was driving erratically (and her driving behavior called into 9-1-1 prior to the accident) cut her off. Our Sergeant swerved to miss the female’s car and spun, then impacted (at freeway speeds), the rear of a tractor/trailer rig. There was little left of the car.
Luckily, her husband had charge, that day, of their four small children and they were not in the car at the time. I knew her well. She and I both used to work for the Training Division — until our two jobs were recently eliminated in the budget crisis.
Her husband also worked, as a Sergeant, in the same Training Division. His job was kept.
Then — just this past Saturday — another of our deputies was shot whilst responding to a “suspicious circumstances” call for service. It turns out that four armed black males were seen casing a business in the late morning and, when contacted by our deputy, opened fire on him, striking him above the vest in the shoulder area. He called for cover immediately and, eventually, three of the four suspects were apprehended. In that process a second firefight ensued but no officers were injured. The first deputy was taken to a local trauma center and is listed in stable condition.
That said, my mind continues to wander. . .

Denny and Alan in the parking garage confronted by the robber? Classic Denny Crane.
I watched an episode last night on DVD (I refuse to watch episodic television “live” with idiotic commercials — I instead buy my TV on disc) where Alan Shore (James Spader) and senior partner Shirley Schmidt (Candice Bergen) reflect with misty doe-eyes on the wondrous potential and limitless implications at this nation’s having elected a — swooning to commence now — black man as president.
And my first thought was: okay, so how do you characters really like him so far?
Hasn’t closed Gitmo. Hasn’t gotten us out of Iraq.
And I also thought: let’s encapsulate what we really have in our nation now.
“If you want a picture of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face — forever.” -1984
Jackboot #1: We have the White House officially wanting lists, names, numbers, addresses of those persons who deign to dissent from the prevailing philosophy in power. Not covertly; oh no. Overtly and with the complicit tolerance of the DEM/MSM — nary a peep in disapproval. Switch the facts: what if Mr Bush had done this COvertly? I’m certain you can do the mathematics required.
Jackboot #2: The so-called “Fairness Doctrine” is soon to be revisited, particularly in light of the ascending efficacy of various protests around the nation regarding ObamaKare.
Jackboot #3: The Demorats are labeling those who possess the temerity to protest ObamaKare as “well dressed” and “mobs” who are “carrying swastikas and symbols” in order to “hurt our president” and “change our Congress.” I say: this is simply grassroots action. The GOP couldn’t organize their own sock drawers at this point.
It’s representative, instead, of The People beginning to actually find Their Voice.
Jackboot #4: Because of this, Demorats are purposely closing any further townhall meetings, refusing to answer phones and e-mail, refusing to consider the wants of constituents at all. Their minds are set, period. Do not confuse them with facts. Period.
Jackboot #5: Global Warming exists. The Demorats and Religious Left’s minds are set, period. Do not confuse them with facts. Period. Though C02 is considered a threatening gas, all mammals including Man exhale this lethal gas. There are those on the Left who suggest we should, therefore, begin to cull that herd. I say: you first.
Jackboot #6: Therefore, America’s Cap & Tax is the perfect solution to the problem. Let the American Taxpayer fund every national and global solution to this perceived environmental problem. Let’s kill business. Let’s drive our own energy production — on all levels — off the North American continent. And let’s just see what kind of economy (and I use that word quite loosely when applied in that context) will result.
I never thought our former president would spend billions for TARP funds — funds that, essentially, no one can account for.
Even here, I have left SO much out. Stimulus? GM? Selectivism?
And whilst that appears to bring up my next obvious thought with regard to one very important word — ACCOUNTABILITY — it’s remarkable, is it not, how “accountability” is completely missing from Our Hero’s administration? And what, also, about the “T” word: “transparency”?
How much “transparency” do you actually see with this current administration? — though, of course, they ran on “change” and that “change” was to have included accountability and transparency.
Wasn’t it said, by Mr Obama, that all bills would be posted online for five days for public viewing?
There isn’t ONE instance in which that has happened.
Furthermore, I submit that Mr Obama and his wife has made a mockery of our presidency. You’ll of course notice that in my writings not ONCE have I placed the word “president” directly adjacent the word “Obama.” That should be one clue.
Second, I submit that Mr Obama’s covert smoking, his “hat backwards” posturing, his “fist bumping,” his late night TV appearances, his “gift-giving” skills, leave much to be desired in terms of Presidential Respect. His global protocol is reprehensible. His understanding of other nations is reprehensible.
And where, oh where — do I ask — will he even remotely begin to find the funding for his quite clearly Socialistic programs?
Trillions and trillions of dollars, just since January 20th, have been wasted and, moreover, created out of THIN AIR.
My grandparents died in 1979. My mother in 2002. My father just this year on February 11th.
I now realize this isn’t necessarily a bad thing, for I doubt they would even recognize their once-beloved nation. It is now an alien presence, even perhaps an objectionable tumor scheduled for rescission.
I, myself, am beginning to lose physical and mental track of what my country used to be.
Where we are going — this is not a trip with which I wish to participate.
And we must do something about this, my friends.
Very damned soon.

More Unhappiness In Oz:
Our Hero continues to have his plans “questioned” by “mobs” of “well dressed” but “swastika-and-symbol-carrying” right wing goons.
In the meantime, Our Hero’s White House move of collecting “fishy” information regarding ObamaKare may just be a teensy-weensy bit illegal:
White House Move to Collect ‘Fishy’ Info May Be Illegal, Critics Say
The White House has been under fire since posting a blog on Tuesday that asks supporters to e-mail any “fishy” information seen on the Web or received electronically.
The White House strategy of turning supporters into snitches when they see “fishy” information about the health care debate may run afoul of the law, legal experts say.
“The White House is in bit of a conundrum because of this privacy statute that prohibits the White House from collecting data and storing it on people who disagree with it,” Judge Andrew Napolitano, a FOX News analyst, said Friday.
“There’s also a statute that requires the White House to retain all communications that it receives. It can’t try to rewrite history by pretending it didn’t receive anything,” he said.
“If the White House deletes anything, it violates one statute. If the White House collects data on the free speech, it violates another statute.”
Napolitano was referring to the Privacy Act of 1974, which was passed after the Nixon administration used federal agencies to illegally investigate individuals for political purposes. Enacted after Richard Nixon’s resignation in the Watergate scandal, the statute generally prohibits any federal agency from maintaining records on individuals exercising their right to free speech.
The White House has been under fire since it posted a blog on Tuesday that asked supporters to e-mail any “fishy” information seen on the Web or received electronically to flag@whitehouse.gov.
In the meantime, healthcare protests continue to spread.
The wondrous and beautimous Nancy Pelosi had the surrounding decibel level raised whilst in Denver. There are, it should be noted, “things to do in Denver when you’re dead.” Thanks, Warren.
And doctors are finally beginning to weigh in on ObamaKare.
Our Hero? I think he had a sandwich today.
Can everyone repeat after me: T – O – N – E D – E – A – F ?

Dissension Continues:
And the Demorats don’t want to hear you. So maybe a little additional volume, perhaps?
Confrontation over a national healthcare overhaul reached South Florida on Wednesday, when routine office hours for the staff of a Broward-area congressman turned into a raucous protest.
The incident is like others that reflect nerves frayed by the nationwide debate. Democrats decry what they describe as a mob rule orchestrated by special interests trying to protect the status quo; Republicans call it genuine grass-roots concern over a costly government takeover.
Though only a handful of constituents typically show up at the Lighthouse Point public library once a month with questions for U.S. Rep. Ron Klein’s staffers — often questions about Social Security checks or passport applications — this time about 100 people packed the room for two hours.
The group was rowdy, rude and fired up about healthcare.
But I’m sure they were well-dressed.
Where the hell is Klein?” demanded Republican activist Ana Gomez-Mallada, even though the congressman was not scheduled to be there. Others branded him a “coward” and a “communist.”
If the shoe fits. . .
And by the way, if some older White Guy had said that instead of a Cuban chick. . .
And now that dissension runs against them, suddenly Demorats are against dissension. From Harry Reid:
The Senate’s most powerful Democrat on Thursday scolded health care protesters dogging his party’s lawmakers at local meetings, arguing that some critics on the political right have run out of ideas—and ditched their civic manners. Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada accused the protesters of trying to “sabotage” the democratic process.
But, of course, all these protesters are carrying swastikas and symbols, says the irrefutable Nancy P:
And I know why most persons are predominantly pissed over Conservatives, Independents and Moderates attending townhall meetings and protesting:
Because, after all, if these people aren’t working and are instead protesting, then who’s actually working and paying the taxes? They need to get back to work: harder work and more of it! Thousands and thousands of worthless laggards and dullards on welfare depend on them! Damn you for being interested in politics! Get back to work!
