It’s the first sunny day after a week of rain, so it was gorgeous here. Hope you had a fun day out!

Latest news out of Washington: the Dems are going to try to RAM this bill on through bypassing Scott Brown AND the will of the American people. I am not surprised because so many Americans believe whatever HE tells them. Love that Rham Emauel thinks that the First Amendment is “highly over-rated.” Will these guys stay within the law or just take over and trash the US Constition???

A friend from NJ just sent me this link: LINK
Pelosi is not interested in investigating Barney Franks or telling us how much Congress spent on themselves and their Copenhagen adventure; however, the WH is willing and able to declassify all sorts of documents about the CIA and their handling of terrorists. Check out the new book: Courting Disaster to see how much information is being given to the world, including those terrorists who want so desperately to kill us. I still say Obama is deliberately trying to destroy our monetary system so he can take everything over! Yes, it may be paronoid but it also may be true.

Brontefan, like the old saying goes, “just because I’m paranoid doesn’t mean they’re not out to get me.” Of course he’s trying to destroy the economy. Makes his glorious utopia easier to achieve with those with “vestigial brains,” as GWR puts it.

As far as trashing the Constitution goes, that’s been happening a long time now, put in place by that great icon of the socialists (who thought Uncle Joe was a great human being), FDR, and his packed court. Ilk of Obama’s kind don’t have to worry much about getting slapped down by the courts, the jurists for the most part are more than willing to go blindly into what those of us can see as a miserable pit.

The WH promises to “focus more sharply on jobs now.” What that translates into is that they’re about to try to pass another “stimulus” bill, one designed specifically to hire more government union workers. Wonder if it ever occurred to them that a government worker (from president and Congress clear down through local dog catcher) is a drain on the economy, not a productive member of society? Probably not. That takes a little thought, organization and moral bearing.

And finally, Manning and the Colts just showed Mr. Sanchez that he needs a little more seasoning before he tries to compete with the big boys. Sanchez is good, but good isn’t good enough in the playoffs.

Another revealing Obama moment, as found by Doug Powers:

Duh-1 visited an elementary school last week in Virgina and spoke to the children there.

And – you guessed it – he brought along the teleprompter.

We now have a president who cannot even talk to grade school kids without the teleprompter.

I doubt he can even say Good Night to his own two kids without the teleprompter.

Can anyone picture Obama exerting such take-no-prisoners leadership to challenge those who threaten our own economic recovery and stability at a time of deep recession and war?

Of course they can’t .. really. Every time Obama takes on Wall Street, the market drops … and millions of 401(k) accounts see the difference, immediately. This past week, Obama drove the market down 5% in three days, quite an accomplishment. A temper tantrum in the SOTU will probably repeat that feat.

What is this man to do when his own big mouth is his worst enemy ? Every time he attempts to reabilitate himself with this faux populist talk, he costs all of us money.

Please Mr. President, do it on your own dime.

Correction, Neo – he is turning out to be OUR own worst enemy!

And as far as using the TOTUS for schoolchildren? Only as I would expect. It is either because it is being filmed and he doesn’t want to seem the idiot he is in front of the children, or it’s because the speech is being recorded and he doesn’t want to seem the idiot he is to everybody.

Either way, he’s a loser, he knows deep down he’s an inadequate loser and only his narcissism can pull him out of such a funk.
