Day #8 – Federal Government Shutdown – The White House *Flinched*

dancing

Still Dancing !!

Yesterday we noted a slip in the strength of narrative from President Stompy Feet.  A slip that’s reflective of a change in internal White House polling on the current issues around the federal government shutdown.
However, the most *telling* of stories was around Stompy saying he was personally backing off from any influence.

President Obama has handed over the reins of leadership on government funding and the debt limit to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.).
Reid is now fully in charge of his party’s negotiating strategy, a significant change from past showdowns with Republicans.  (link)

It makes sense he would because Stompy always prefers to lead from behind. (more…)

Reminder – The Million Veteran March For Their Memorials….

October 13th 9:00am Washington DC

Million Veteran’s March – WEB SITE HERE and Facebook HERE
[…] We do not care what political leanings you may be; be it liberal, conservative, Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, Independent or whatever. The actions of the U.S. government this week with regard to barricading and shutting down the World War II Memorial to veterans, that may or may not be on their last trip to Washington DC, is a despicable act of cowardice.
million vet march
[…] Many in our group have decided that enough is enough. We are Americans. We are proud of our heritage and our service. As all of us were military brats and spouses, we have served in some form or another our entire lives. This is our way of life. We will not stand by and let the U.S. government dishonor the legacy of sacrifice of the generations before us. It is time to make a stand! We hope that you will join us in our peaceful protest against anti-American policies. (facebook link)

What Do You Think Stompy Feet Will Do When He Has Control Of Your Healthcare?…..

Over a budget squabble, and because they are trying to make a petty political point, you are watching this administration kick people out of their homes because they live on federal land.  You are seeing them block roads just to make sure you can’t see national monuments like Mount Rushmore.   They’ve even proclaimed you can’t use the ocean.
Worse yet, you are even seeing them block off War Memorials so that veterans or families cannot visit, pay their respects, and sit in quiet reflection of their fallen brothers and sisters, moms and dads….  this is how petty, angry, and hateful they are.
Mr. Pinko asks… “Vindictive Government?”  …..So what exactly do you think they’d be willing to do, to really make a point, if they held control over your healthcare access?
Health-Care-Closed-Mr-Pinko-Predicts-the-future
Just think about it…
…. before it’s too late !

The White House and Harry Reid are Flinching….. The Signs Are There, But You Will Not See Them In The Media…..

Message to GOP – Hold the line ! Message to Tea Party Freshman Patriots – “Hold The GOP” !

*Note this picture is from TODAY.  Note what has replaced the “Halo” – It’s subtle, but if the media did not notice Stompy Feet was a pontificating whiner, it would not be allowed.  US President Barack Obama speaks about hurricane preparedness as well as the budget showdown with Congress on October 7, 2013, on the seventh day of the government shutdown (AFP Photo/Saul Loeb)

In the politicized back and forth, that has become the new normal, you must review each subtle movement through the prism of ‘narrative risk management’.   As the New York Times now weighs in “This is most closed, control-freak administration I’ve ever covered,”… (link)   This is a brutal recognition of Dear Leader, Valerie Jarrett and Denis McDonough.
Internal White House polling must be giving them fits right now. The American People are not losing resolve; in fact, just the opposite is true, more and more people are joining a growing group awakening to the reality of how destructive Obamacare is, and just WHAT the reason is for this fight.   THIS is from a moonbat in Californiastan:

“I was laughing at Boehner — until the mail came today,”  […]   “I really don’t like the Republican tactics, but at least now I can understand why they are so pissed about this. When you take $10,000 out of my family’s pocket each year, that’s otherwise disposable income or retirement savings that will not be going into our local economy.” […]  “Of course, I want people to have health care,” Vinson said. “I just didn’t realize I would be the one who was going to pay for it personally.”   (link)

NPR, the liberal basement for all media pontifications, tells it’s reports to back off using the term Obamacare?  If Obamacare was so dreamy, that would never happen.  No, what’s happening is Obamacare has become a risk.   Within that “risk” is the future of all left-wing liberalism.
And even more telling is this.  Stompy Feet moves to put himself on the outside of the issue(s), trying to give himself some distance from the inherent risk:

President Obama has handed over the reins of leadership on government funding and the debt limit to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.).
Reid is now fully in charge of his party’s negotiating strategy, a significant change from past showdowns with Republicans.  (link)

A Pretty Cool Thing….

… just happened.

Kilroy Is Here !

One of the really good guys on our team was ripped off over the weekend.   BigFurHat @iOTW is one of the few REALLY dependable guys you can count on to be beside you outside the wire, and on the front line pushback against the leftist hoard.  But most of y’all already know that.
What you probably don’t know is – over the weekend one of his great visual snarks against the Stompy Feet usurpers, The Mount Rushmore Picture, was ripped off from his credit.
Another website, with a vast and large Facebook audience, used his picture while editing out the credit attribution.   In essence they stole his picture for their own use without giving him credit for it; and 160,000 people saw the picture without Biggie’s efforts being recognized.   It’s a long inside baseball story – Which you can read here.
BigFur was upset, and rightly so.    But God has a very subtle, yet direct, way to support those in righteous cause, if you just open yourself up to seeing his hand at work.
Today, The Drudge Report, picked up on a Conservative Treehouse article.   A link to Drudge is a big effen’ deal, it brings in hundreds of thousands of hits.
And guess which article they linked into? (more…)

Day #7 – The Federal Government Shutdown – Kilroy Is Here …

happy-day

Dancing In To Week #2

Much to the chagrin of President Stompy Feet, Democrats, left-wing liberals and their water-carrying media, and despite the 24/7 drumbeat of doom and gloom, the vast majority of Americans can see straight through the ruse.   “The Shutdown That Doesn’t Actually Shut Down Anything”….
Just like the non-existent end of the world doom and gloom from Sequester Cut predictions, the federal shutdown doesn’t actually stop anything.
It was as a direct consequence that ‘We The People’ didn’t buy into the faux-sequester prophecy that President Stompy Feet ordered numerous federally authorized examples to be carried out.  In essence,  intentional infliction of distress through the manipulation of semi public private enterprises which make up many aspects of life in American society.
This is, like all Obamanations, just a strategy, and so far the American People are refusing to be intimidated. (more…)

The Unhinged and Undereducated Left

(Article @Daily Pamphlet)  This week, the left’s psychosis is on full display. Nowhere more obvious is the loss of mental function than in the far-left MSM, who will obfuscate the highest level of crime, and the lowest level of deviousness of Democrats, to propagate and proselytize their ideology
naziobama_bigToday, in all its glory, the left wing rag The New Republic went so far as to suggest the Obama Administration break out the tanks, and do some killing of Republicans, to “put the boot on the throats” of the Republicans in the House of Representatives. Actor James Woods tweeted the adage to me a few weeks ago, if you scratch away the surface of a leftist, you expose a fascist. Nowhere is this more evident and proven than the suggestion by The New Republic’s Senior Editor Julia Ioffe’s suggestion that Obama act as Boris Yeltsin did when he shot up Russia’s Parliament building with T-72 tanks.
I have now heard it all. I have seen it all. What we are witnessing is what “The Great One” Mark Levin calls “Soft Tyranny.” Such tyranny is a slow walk to 25% of our population being murdered, as Stalin, Pot, Mao, and Castro did, to name just a few of the most illustrious and storied Marxist “revolutionaries” who murdered all of those who couldn’t be “retrained”…as Obama crony Bill Ayers promised to do in his manifesto.

The "Essentials" – 83% of Federal Government Still Operating During "Shutdown"…

How many “essential” federal employees does it take to hang a sign?
essential feds

Yeah… I know… I know…   [Federal Guideline Handbook – Chapter 16, Volume 9; Subsection xvii, paragraph #3a: “Determining Human Resource Allocation” – In order to determine appropriate efficiency metrics’, unless otherwise noted, all federal employees shall, at the request of their immediate level 3 supervisors, while under the direction of the management office, require a specific measurement of the sign prior to labor distribution consideration.  ∞Prior to facilitating any request from alternate office management the proposed sign hanging must meet AFSCME guideline 334.021 article iii – and must be accompanied by a proposal, filed in triplicate, to include such measurements in metric centimeters, and standard inches, and allow a 10 business day review and approval request.  Failing to appropriately follow specific guidelines may lead to disciplinary action up to, and possibly including, the elimination of one 30-minute rest period for any individual workday exceeding 2.25,  but not greater than 3.15 hours, in duration]

Meanwhile….  83% of The Federal Government is NOT involved in the shutdown – Everyone knows the phrase “government shutdown” doesn’t mean the entire U.S. government is shut down. So in a partial government shutdown, like the one underway at the moment, how much of the government is actually shut down, and how much is not? (more…)

We Have Not Yet Begun To Whine…..

[Via The Peoples Cube]  Comrades, President Obama needs your help to raise everyone’s awareness of how the government shutdown is utterly ruining everyone’s lives and destroying everything in its path, and all at the behest of those greedy, evil anarchists, arsonists, extortionists, bomb-throwers, flame-throwers, terrorists, fearmongers, hatemongers, hostage-takers, killers, murderers, and thieves that make up the Tea Party Republicans, who are holding their guns, including assault weapons, to the heads of the American people, strapping explosives to the chests of children, and chowing down on kittens and puppies and bunnies while forcing everyone else to starve to death!
