Professor, better get a load of this!! This is bigger than the Elizabeth Warren story.

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/08/02/obama-campaign-sues-to-restrict-military-voting

Washington Times coins a new one: Obama and Co. are now also playing the dead card. Barack Obama and Harry Reid’s broken liberal souls.

For an explanation of what’s happened so far and an indication of what to expect, let’s stroll down memory lane back to 2003.

Back to when Howard Dean, then the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination, insinuated that George Bush knew about 9/11 in advance.

This is who they are. This is what they do.

(The Dean incident started tickling my memory when I read about Harry Reid’s accusation that Mitt Romney paid no taxes for ten years. I repeat:

This is who they are. This is what they do.)

Rahm Emanuel’s insistence that Chick-fil-A bow to the icon of gay marriage had that effect, at least upon some. Chick-fil-A is not about gay marriage or Christianity at all, any more than the incident of William Tell was about a hat. It’s about power. It is morphing into an overt test of whether the cultural elite can have its way. The problem with National Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day is that it constitutes an act of open defiance by manifesting all too publicly the contempt that a fairly large segment of the population has for shibboleths of political correctness.

Nobody’s going to start a pogrom against homosexuals at a fast-food outlet. But events in the most ridiculous places can start a revolution, and that is precisely the problem. And then they won’t be singing the chicken song but something else.

Richard is one of the most essential reads on the internet.

OK, here’s something with a link:

Obama Campaign Sues to Restrict Military Voting

I know this tip line depends upon links to other articles, but I wanted to let you guys notice something quite strange.

I did a check around media sources in the Houston Metro area – the Houston Chronicle, local TV stations, etc, to see if there was even a word uttered in this whole Chick-fil-A controversy by one person who probably had the most reasons to have a point to prove yesterday during the Appreciation Day: Mayor Anise Parker.

(For those who don’t know, Mayor Parker is openly lesbian, has a partner and children to boot.)

Again, I looked around to see any reaction coming from her and I found… nothing. Not a peep. Not even a cluck.

But if you want to look around the Web to see if you can fins something I might have missed, please do. And let me know what you find, please!

You’d think a Mayor of a major city in this nation who may have more reasons than Rahm Emanuel and Thomas Menino to be outraged at Chick-fil-A and call for the total closing of all franchises here in Houston at once – and there are LOTS and LOTS of them around here.

But nope. Nothing.

Just check it out and tell me if you find anything. OK?

Too good not to share

Ted Cruz wasn’t the only Tea Party victory yesterday. The entire political establishment of Georgia (including the Republican governor and legislative leadership, plus the Democratic mayor of Atlanta and his machine), just got its collective ass royally kicked by the Tea Party. “TSPLOST,” a sales tax hike that would have funded a multi-billion dollar slush fund for transit boondoggles and taxpayer-funded development bootstrapping was supported by $10 million in relentless advertising. Tea Party groups spent all of $15,000 in paid opposition.

Result: 69-31, against. And that was in the Atlanta metro region.

Can this be true?

In which we learn the left, via Roseanne “Behead Them” Barr, views paid and pensioned voluntary military service as a form of welfare.

I’ve encountered this thinking before. Since the left has largely written the military community off as hopelessly conservative/fascist/babykiller (there are notable exceptions of course, ahem Jimmy Carter, John Kerry, Algore, etc.), they Alinsky this group by comparing the social contract of compensated national military service (including pensions) with the eternal welfare class. After all, don’t we always see those generals coming to Congress with their hands out?

So Roseanne accuses military families of living off tax dollars for the rest of their lives. This is probably how the left gets around the whole “working middle class family” problem. If the military is just a form of welfare, then they aren’t part of the hallowed working middle class family group struggling to get by.

I give the left half-credit in this. VA Hospitals are among the most notorious examples of government-run health care. But then, they’re treating babykillers so who cares?

Dumb as rocks! Report: Mitt Romney photo on Facebook sets off man, who assaults girlfriend

The short of it: he saw a photo of Romney on her Facebook page. He thought his girlfriend was “planning to have an affair”. He broke her computer and punched her in the face. And it’s not the first time he does that to her. So yes, it is domestic violence. And probably the first documented case of Romney Derangement Syndrome as well.

Blogger who outed ‘Witness 9′ in George Zimmerman unmasked
by Joy-Ann Reid | July 30, 2012 at 4:42 PM

Found in thegrio.com

A serious effort to name, identify, and locate the operator of the conservativetreehouse.com, a website that has vigorously looked at the evidence in the Trayvon Martin case, and who published the name and identity of Witness #9.

The only purpose I can see for this journalistic effort is to expose the author to harassment.

Panic at RenCen. It’s not that people are leaving GM. It’s how they leave. Two weeks ago, Opel chief Karl-Friedrich Stracke presented numbers to Dan Akerson. Akerson fires him. Opel gets two interim chiefs in a week. Last Thursday, Opel’s new design chief Dave Lyon doesn’t even start his job. Today, media in the U.S. and Germany report that Lyon had been escorted from the building and to a waiting car by GM’s head of personnel. A day later, global marketing chief Joel Ewanick suddenly leaves. Instead of wishing him all the best for his future endeavors, GM spokesman Greg Martin puts a knife in Ewanick’s back: “He failed to meet the expectations the company has of an employee.”

Command economics don’t work. Fascist economics can work for a while, because it leaves nominal control in the hands of the nominal owners.

Sooner or later, all Collectivist economic models fail.

It sure seems obvious when you dont have a record worth running on? Run on Clinton’s.
But as Newt points out (see NRO) this gives Republicans a great opportunity to point out the differences between Obama and Clinton.
If I were a dem Id be careful around Clinton. He may be popular but still has some baggage.

GM switches story on relationship with Chinese offshoot
http://dailycaller.com/2012/07/30/gm-switches-story-on-relationship-with-chinese-offshoot/

“I’m running to make sure what happened in the auto industry is happening in other sections of manufacturing,” Obama said July 13 while touting GM’s performance at a campaign stop in Hampton, Va.
“It doesn’t just need to happen in Detroit; it needs to happen in Cleveland and Raleigh and Richmond and Hampton.”

GM China is 51% owned by PRC, when China purchases US Corps. as they have with Nexteer they’re full owners with generous tax abatement and incentives.

News item from Brown-Warren local fundraising beat:

http://medford.patch.com/articles/warren-narrowly-out-raising-brown-in-medford

In Medford, MA, an economically mixed (Tufts U. and lots of working people), solidly Democratic city of 50K (in which Martha Coakley resides), Warren has raised only about $1000 more in nickel and dime donations than Brown (Warren: $13030 from 56 donors/Brown $11850 from 40).

What does this say about Warren’s support on the ground?

Hold onto your hat…or your lunch…

“Every now and again, I meet with someone who’s been very successful on Wall Street, who says, ‘I want to support your campaign because I believe you will save capitalism. I believe in capitalism, and I understand there have to be rules. And they have to be consistently enforced.’ That’s what I think is at stake in this election.

Just a followup on the post querying whether there was something going on with LI that one of the readers had trouble with. I am noticing that Google is sending out “warnings” for several websites that shouldn’t be a problem, and I’m wondering what is going on. One of them is Daily Caller. When a link is clicked in some browsers with a “safe browsing” setting, via gmail or google, a scare page comes up, e.g. http://safebrowsing.clients.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?client=Firefox&hl=en-US&site=http://dailycaller.com/2012/07/29/obama-canceled-bin-laden-kill-raid-three-times-valerie-jarrett/
