Blame It on the American People
American Spectator, by Andrew B. Wilson

Original Article

Posted By:StormCnter, 11/17/2012 5:32:45 AM

Bill O´Reilly of Fox News and Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal have added their voices to the swelling chorus of second-guessers saying the Mitt Romney ran the race badly and therefore "deserved to lose" to Barack Obama on Nov. 6. But here´s a simpler and, I think, better explanation. There is no magic that dictates that the American people in their infinite wisdom will always make the right choice, and in this instance they ´doubled down´ (to use one of the president´s favorite expressions) in returning a very bad president

Romney ran a civilized, intelligent campaign in a world of savages. Of course he lost and now he will be canabalized by his own tribe.

O´Reilly softpedaled his comments on Zippy before the election, calling him merely a politician instead of a racist, Marxist traitor bent on destroying America. He should been awake and using his platform sooner.

I really think fraud stole Florida. Not sure about the other states but Florida is for sure imho.
Still, Romney was just like the conservatives on Lucianne thought he was: nice, thoughtful and bland. Sadly, in todays world the voters expect POW BANG BOOM. He had the money for all of that but was too timid. His ´handlers´ were also bland and often short sighted. I agree the two dud senatorial candidates who don´t know rape from raisin did not help him. And, Christie showed many of us he is amusing but just a me me me blowhard. Our so called conservative writers did what they could but it is hard to fight a corrupt media. And then there was Benghezi...where was McCain, Graham and the Randy General when the country needed them before the election. All I can do is continue to pray and hope for the best. I will pray also for Israel. They need our prayers with no friends anywhere.

What #1 said. IMO, it IS the fault of the American people because enough of THEM voted to put the community-agitator-in-chief back in office for another four years. And let´s not forget the Election FRAUD that was rampant through the Country. If the voting "process" isn´t straightened out, we will never see another Republican President elected. That will make some people happy, but the end result will be catastrophic for America.

You can´t beat fraud, no matter how the voters vote.

I disagree completely with Bill on this one but of course, my job does not depend on it. I think Romney tried as hard as he could to run and honest and hard campaign. The Democrats cheated on every level from voter fraud to lying about Romney´s record and the Press was complicit by allowing it to happen by supporting Obama. Romney did not have a chance.

ROMNEY WON!!! The electronic machines stole the election for Obama...The RNC knew Romney votes were stolen BEFORE the election and did nothing ...same thing for the military vote...and the absentee vote. Obama did not win because he got 99% to 146% of the usual moron vote, he won because the usual GOP and independent votes for Romney were deleted, shredded or changed (the sorosbots used the 2010 Republican win to factor in the % of cheat needed for Obama). The RNC and RINO´s are fine with the cheat if it ends the Conservative control of the GOP...as evidenced by STUPID statements from clowns like O´Reilly & Jindal who also are say if we raise taxes it will convince blacks, illegals, minorities, gays and the abortion-gals to vote Republican...FOOLS!!!!

If you think Romney was THAT great candidate, then you should enthusiastically support him again in 2016.

He bought the nomination, someone else bought the election.

Embarassingly inane article. So the stupid voters are to blame because they didn´t see the decency and goodness of Willard the Inevitable and his good breeding, fine manners and proper schooling? Really? The paranoids won´t accept it but a majority of voters saw things differently. They saw a candidate who stood for and would say anything, everything and nothing, all in the same sentence who was a trendy squish leading a center-right party. So they decided better the incompetent fraud we know than this fraud we don´t. That the GOP would select a feckless and timid out of touch lefty says volumes about the rot at the core of the GOP.

Ignorance and greed won over integrity and intelligence. It´s sad, of course, but it´s been a long time coming.

Boehner: House won´t just ´take up

The Hill [DC], by Russell Berman & Mike Lillis    Original Article

Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) on Thursday said the House won't pick up the Senate immigration bill and pass it. "The House remains committed to fixing our broken immigration system, but we will not simply take up and accept the bill that is emerging in the Senate if it passes," said the statement from Boehner, his top three lieutenants and Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.), the chairman of the Judiciary Committee, which has jurisdiction on immigration. "The House remains committed to fixing our broken immigration system, but we will not simply take up and accept the bill that is emerging in the Senate if it passes," the statement said.

Holding AWOL Obama Accountable

President Obama offers only weasel words to explain deaths in Libya and IRS abuses. He’s the master of verbal evasion. House Republicans need to replace debate with action to hold the president accountable on these issues. To get to the bottom of why four Americans died in Benghazi, Libya on September 11, 2012, House Republicans should issue a formal resolution demanding to know where the president was on the night September 11 and what role he played. Obama needs to be put on the hot seat. Benghazi- For eight months, the White House has maneuvered

Much has been written and said about the astoundingly tone deaf performance of White House spokesman Jay Carney during this past month of scandals. The former journalist has lost the confidence of the people who were once his colleagues due to his unwillingness to tell the truth about his own deceptive statements (never mind those he represents in front of the press) about the Benghazi talking points or even to acknowledge that he has changed his story. The same applies to the shifting story he has told about the Internal Revenue Service scandal

A nonprofit connected to Rep. Corrine Brown (D., Fla.) and run by a local political power player overbilled Medicaid by nearly $1.4 million, the Florida Times-Union reported. According to an audit by the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration, the Community Rehabilitation Center in Jacksonville overbilled Medicaid by nearly $1.4 million. Reggie Gaffney, a former Jacksonville Port Authority board member, runs the nonprofit, which provides medical services for mental illness, substance abuse, and HIV/AIDS for low-income residents. Brown’s daughter, Shantrel, is a lobbyist for Arlington-based Alcade and Fay, whose clients include the nonprofit. C

Slain Russian ‘intimidated’ neighbors

Former Cambridge neighbors of a Russian mixed martial arts brawler shot dead by an FBI agent early yesterday in Florida — after ?being questioned about his ties to the marathon bombing and a Waltham triple murder — said he was nasty. Ibragim Todashev, 27, also hung around with slain marathon bombing mastermind Tamerlan Tsarnaev, 26 — swilling beer and eating chicken on a stoop on Harding Street, they said. “I was the happiest person when they moved. ... It’s a little more peaceful since they left,” a neighbor told the Herald yesterday of the Russian buddies.

   

 

  


 
The Real Voter Suppression of 2012
National Review Online, by John Fund    Original Article
Posted By: StormCnter- 5/23/2013 5:29:41 AM     Post Reply
The 2012 election season was filled with angry cries of “voter suppression,” almost all of them regarding attempts by states to require voter ID and otherwise improve ballot integrity. Bill Clinton warned that “there has never been — in my lifetime, since we got rid of the poll tax and all the other Jim Crow burdens on voting — the determined effort to limit the franchise that we see today.” Democratic-party chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz said “photo-ID laws, we think, are very similar to a poll tax.” All of this proved to be twaddle.

The ‘Criminal’ press

The Justice Department’s secret seizure of phone records from The Associated Press and its monitoring of Fox News reporter James Rosen are nothing less than thuggish attempts to criminalize the practice of journalism — the only profession specifically protected by the US Constitution. Free and open inquiry is also the cornerstone of our democracy, a legacy of the Enlightenment that found its clearest expression in the First Amendment: “Congress shall make no law . . . abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press.” By which the Founders specifically meant political speech. They understood that, even with the checks and balances

Former Rep. Anthony Weiner, whose career in public life came to an abrupt end when he sent lewd pictures to a college student on Twitter, jumped back into politics on Wednesday by announcing a bid for mayor of New York City. “Look, I’ve made some big mistakes and I know I’ve let a lot of people down,” the Democrat said in a 2-minute video announcing his bid. “But I’ve also learned some tough lessons. I’m running for mayor because I’ve been fighting for the middle class and those struggling to make it for my entire life.

The dam protecting the IRS scandal began to crack today when Lois Lerner, the IRS official who announced, and apologized for, the improper singling out of conservative-leaning organizations by IRS employees under her command, announced through her criminal defense lawyer that she will not testify as scheduled tomorrow before the House Oversight Committee. Rather, she will assert her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination. This marks an enormous milestone in the IRS investigation. It can now be taken as more or less established that crimes were committed by Obama administration employees. Lerner’s lawyer tried to minimize the significance

The public got its first look Thursday at Lois Lerner, who has gone from faceless IRS bureaucrat to the face that launched what feels like 1,000 congressional hearings and conspiracy theories. But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy. She was determined to

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

What´s so interesting about 60 tea partiers protesting the IRS in San Jose, California on Tuesday, May 21st? The fact that this bit of information was conveyed to the protesters by a Department of Homeland Security officer who was also in attendance. What was a DHS agent doing at the San Jose Tea Party protest? (snip) they weren´t just spying on us in San Jose and monitoring us in San Francisco, they were watching us throughout the entire state

Eva Longoria is backing up her beauty with a whole lot of brain. The actress graduated with a master´s degree Wednesday. Longoria, 38, took home a real degree (not an honorary one) in Chicano studies from Cal State Northridge, where she physically attended classes for three years, according to TMZ. "Big day today!!! Very excited to graduate for my master´s degree in Chicano studies! You´re never too old or too busy to continue your education!" the actress wrote on her Who Say site Wednesday, sharing loads of pics of her big day, posing with her family, cohorts and diploma.
