We were going to write last week about the Gabby Giffords opportunistic visit to Sandy Hook parents in Newtown, CT.   We chose not to, because of the grandma principle behind saying nothing when ya ain’t got nothing good to say; and she is cognitively disabled.  However…..

Gabrielle Giffords is merely a useful tool in the scheme to disarm gun owners.   The “crisis” not to be wasted is obviously the Newtown shooting;  And the group or individual to be “alinskyed” ie isolated, ridiculed and marginalized, is the NRA.

Most gun owners are not NRA members, and many gun owners do not like the previous positions of the NRA on other political issues.   But the Alinsky Team of Fabian Socialists need a specific target – that’s where the NRA comes in.   The NRA is specifically and optically being intentionally built into the narrative of ‘all gun owners’.  It’s how this crew works.

WASHINGTON DC – Former U.S. Representative Gabrielle Giffords D-Ariz. launched a new policy group this morning dubbed Americans for Responsible Solutions. The organization calls for government action to stop gun violence. (more…)

If anyone wants to go back and look at historical references to Germany circa 1933/1934 this is profoundly similar in ideology.    Jewish Mayor Ed Koch supported, and endorsed, candidate Obama even though he knew Obama was hateful toward Israel.   Koch, says he figured Obama would win, so it would be better to support him and maybe Obama would go easier ‘on his’ people after the endorsement.

It’s like we’ve entered a time-warp back to the time of Dietrich Bonhoeffer:

Hitler knew his opponents were divided and couldn’t unite against him.  He would play them off each other brilliantly and would consolidate his power with breathtaking speed and a calculating ruthlesses for which no one was prepared.  On February 3 (still 1933) Goebbels wrote in his diary: “Now it will be easy to carry on the fight, for we can call on all the resources of the State.  Radio and press are at our disposal.  We shall stage a masterpiece of propaganda.  And this time, naturally, there is no lack of money.”  [ p. 145 of Bonhoeffer by Eric Metaxas]

In Discussing HAGEL – I admire former Mayor Ed Koch’s willingness to break with his own party on issues of principle, but his comments to the Algemeiner today are mind-boggling. In between some very strong denunciations of the Chuck Hagel nomination, Koch casually let it drop that he suspected Obama would abandon his pro-Israel positions after the election. The former mayor, of course, endorsed Obama’s reelection and served as one of his surrogates to the pro-Israel community: (more…)

Ya’ know something, this author sees some kind of morbid ‘told-ya-so’ satisfaction in the constituent Democrats coming to the realization that President Obama lied to them.  It does not relay the similar satisfaction to us.  

Perhaps it’s because regardless of the guise, and those who believed it, the people impacted are all Americans – even those painfully now aware of themselves being hoodwinked by the snake oil salesman – there is no satisfaction there.

A guy or gal making $500 bucks a week is now faced with a paycheck $30 – $40 smaller.  That’s $150+ bucks a month less to keep food, a roof, or a modicum of lifestyle afloat.  There is nothing satisfactory in that reality…. not even close.  It sucks… and there ain’t a drop of “hope” or “change” in sight…  Painful, is what it is.   Sad, and painful.

(Washington Times) — Sometimes, watching a Democrat learn something is wonderful, like seeing the family dog finally sit and stay at your command.

With President Obama back in office and his life-saving “fiscal cliff” bill jammed through Congress, the new year has brought a surprising turn of events for his sycophantic supporters.

“What happened that my Social Security withholding’s in my paycheck just went up?” a poster wrote on the liberal site DemocraticUnderground.com. “My paycheck just went down by an amount that I don’t feel comfortable with. I guarantee this decrease is gonna’ hurt me more than the increase in income taxes will hurt those making over 400 grand. What happened?” (more…)

There’s really not a lot you can debate about when the disparity between people is this large.   Polar Opposites actually – you could not get more distant than Obama/Reid/Pelosi and anyone who cares about the fiscal spending insanity.

WASHINGTON — House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) urged the president on Sunday to drop his resistance to the idea and simply bypass the upcoming debate over raising the debt ceiling by deeming the entire cap unconstitutional.

Appearing on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” Pelosi offered her strongest endorsement to-date of the 14th Amendment option, which holds that Congress doesn’t have the power to use the debt ceiling as a hostage-taking device because the validity of the debt “shall not be questioned.”  (read more)

I mean, seriously, what are you supposed to do when the President of The United States is operating his fiscal programs without a budget, borrows $4 billion per day,  running $1+ Trillion annual deficits, and our nation is nearly $17 trillion in debt.  Yet he proclaims “we do not have a spending issue”.

Suckas’…. Nothing is more annoying that watching a mainstream media outlet fall for the seeded psy-ops White House cover stories dropped with varying degrees of seperation and plausible deniability. The ONLY reason Lisa Jackson quit was because Richard Windsor’s 12,000 emails were about to be poured through the filter of congressional investigation.

WASHINGTON DC – EPA chief Lisa Jackson suddenly resigned last week because she was convinced that President Obama is planning to green-light the controversial Keystone XL oil pipeline, The Post has learned.

“She was going to stay on until November or December,” said a Jackson insider. “But this changed it. She will not be the EPA head when Obama supports it [Keystone] getting built.” (more…)

The singular constants in an ever-changing universe…

….”revenue – taxes – investment, spend, revenue – taxes  – investment, spend, revenue – taxes – investment, spend, revenue – taxes – investment, spend, revenue – taxes investment, spend, revenue – taxes – investment, spend, revenue – taxes – investment, spend,”….

WASHINGTON DC – … H.J.Res 15 proposes an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to repeal the Twenty-second Amendment. This would remove the limitation on the number of terms an individual may serve as President. Rep. José Serrano (D- NY15) introduced the controversial joint resolution on Friday, the second day of the 2013 legislative session.

The last President to serve more than two terms was Franklin D. Roosevelt. Roosevelt served three full terms as President and was elected to a fourth term. Roosevelt died 83 days into his fourth term in office. (more…)

Makes sense when you think about the pending LGBT opposition to Chuck Hagel for Defense Secretary.   If Barney can reach the Senate, he can deflect opposition by providing President Obama “Gay Credibility” in the confirmation process.  The Gay and Lesbian community will shut up if Barney Frank supports Hagel. 

BOSTON — Gov. Deval L. Patrick said that retired U.S. Rep. Barney Frank is a gifted legislator and would make a great interim senator.

“He is definitely on the list,” Patrick told reporters Friday. “I think he would be a great interim senator.”

Patrick’s comments came at a Statehouse press conference after Frank, a Newton Democrat, told MSNBC that he wants the governor to appoint him as an interim replacement for U.S. Sen. John F. Kerry. President Barack Obama has nominated Kerry to be secretary of state.

Responding to a reporter’s question, Patrick said it would be logical to appoint Frank, partly because he knows the issues in Washington and could hit the ground running. (article)

Sadly hilarious, in a predictable way…. we are only four days into the new year and already it appears five of our ten predictions for 2013 will come to fruition....

WASHINGTON — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has privately told other Democrats, including President Obama, that if the administration used its constitutional and executive authority to continue paying its debts in the face of House Republican opposition, he would support the approach, according to a source familiar with Reid’s message to the president.

The simplest escape route out of the debt ceiling impasse is for the president to direct the Treasury to find a legal way to pay its debts. The Treasury then has a variety of options. One gaining particular attention relies on a law that allows the Treasury to mint a coin of unspecified value and deposit it with the Federal Reserve. Those funds could then be used legally to pay debts. (more…)

The Gates were loaded, the horn sounded, and the Progressive race to restrict gun ownership has begun…..    Leading the first furlong we have Carolyn McCarthy, followed closely by Bobby Rush and Rush Holt;  as they head toward turn one Sheila Jackson Lee breaks out the whip, but Jim Moran is also digging in his heals…..  giddy up’….

WASHINGTON DC – Members of the 113th Congress introduced 10 bills on Thursday relating to gun violence, most of which came from Democrats seeking new restrictions on gun ownership.

The flurry of legislative proposals show that members are likely to push the issue in the wake of the December shooting at a Connecticut elementary school that left 20 children dead.

Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-N.Y.), whose husband was shot to death in 1993, introduced four of the bills. The congresswoman has vowed to seek changes in federal law in response to the school shooting. (more…)
