ANN COULTER: THE REIGN OF LAME FALLS MAINLY ON MCCAIN (He Should Have Listened To Sarah)

THE REIGN OF LAME FALLS MAINLY ON MCCAIN

Last night was truly a historic occasion: For only the second time in her adult life, Michelle Obama was proud of her country!

The big loser of this election is Colin Powell, whose last-minute endorsement of Obama put the Illinois senator over the top. Powell was probably at home last night, yelling at his TV, "Are you KIDDING me? That endorsement was sarcastic!"

The winner, of course, is Obama, who must be excited because now he can start hanging out in public with Bill Ayers and Rev. Jeremiah Wright again. John McCain is a winner because he can resume buying more houses.

And we're all winners because we will never again have to hear McCain say, "my friends."

After Bill Clinton won the 1992 presidential election, Hillary Clinton immediately announced that, henceforth, she would be known as "Hillary Rodham Clinton." So maybe Obama can now become B. Hussein Obama, his rightful name.

This was such an enormous Democratic year that even John Murtha won his congressional seat in Pennsylvania after calling his constituents racists. It turns out they're not racists -- they're retards. Question: What exactly would one have to say to alienate Pennsylvanians? That Joe Paterno should retire?

Apparently Florida voters didn't mind Obama's palling around with Palestinian activist Rashid Khalidi and Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan, either. There must be a whole bunch of retired Pennsylvania Jews down there.

Have you ever noticed that whenever Democrats lose presidential elections, they always blame it on the personal qualities of their candidate? Kerry was a dork, Gore was a stiff, Dukakis was a bloodless android, Mondale was a sad sack.

This blame-the-messenger thesis allows Democrats to conclude that their message was fine -- nothing should be changed! The American people are clamoring for higher taxes, big government, a defeatist foreign policy, gay marriage, the whole magilla. It was just this particular candidate's personality.

Republicans lost this presidential election, and I don't blame the messenger; I blame the message. How could Republicans go after B. Hussein Obama (as he is now known) on planning to bankrupt the coal companies when McCain supports the exact same cap and trade policies and earnestly believes in global warming?

How could we go after Obama for his illegal alien aunt and for supporting driver's licenses for illegal aliens when McCain fanatically pushed amnesty along with his good friend Teddy Kennedy?

How could we go after Obama for Jeremiah Wright when McCain denounced any Republicans who did so?

How could we go after Obama for planning to hike taxes on the "rich," when McCain was the only Republican to vote against both of Bush's tax cuts on the grounds that they were tax cuts for the rich?

And why should Republican activists slave away working for McCain when he has personally, viciously attacked: John O'Neill and the Swift Boat Veterans, National Right to Life director Doug Johnson, evangelical pastors Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson and John Hagee, various conservative talk radio hosts, the Tennessee Republican Party and on and on and on?

As liberal Democrat E.J. Dionne Jr. exuded about McCain in The Washington Post during the Republican primaries, "John McCain is feared by Democrats and liked by independents." Dionne proclaimed that McCain "may be the one Republican who can rescue his party from the undertow of the Bush years."

Similarly, after unelectable, ultraconservative Reagan won two landslide victories, James Reston of The New York Times gave the same advice to Vice President George H.W. Bush: Stop being conservative! Bush was "a good man," Reston said in 1988, "and might run a strong campaign if liberated from Mr. Reagan's coattails."

Like Sarah Connor in "The Terminator," Sarah Palin is destined to give birth to a new movement. That's why the Democrats are trying to kill her. And Arnold Schwarzenegger is involved somehow, too. Good Lord, I'm tired.

“For only the second time in her adult life, Michelle Obama was proud of her country! “

Last night for the first time in my life was I completely disappointed with at least half of my countrymen.

Like I said in an earlier post elsewhere on another thread, I cannot wait until this awesome woman (who, coincidentally, has a bigger set of figurative brass-balls than any Republican panty-buncher in Congress) declares her 2012 Presidential Candidacy - the sooner the better because I can credit-card donate more regularly in small unreportable amounts.

"Have you ever noticed that whenever Democrats lose presidential elections, they always blame it on the personal qualities of their candidate? Kerry was a dork, Gore was a stiff, Dukakis was a bloodless android, Mondale was a sad sack."

And Obama is a stiff android dork who will make people sad they ever voted for him.

Ann Coulter and her publicity-seeking inanity is something the GOP would be wise to distance themselves from.

She makes some good points. The republican primary was a fiasco. The only consolation is that democrat primary was even worse.

I will remember Dole. And I will remember McCain. The next time the Repube’s give me a “moderate” I'm telling them up front and straightaway: “stick it”. I will never again waste my time supporting a “moderate”. No matter how Socialist or Marxist his/her opponent. They are going to lose ever single time. I'll save my money, time and sanity that way.

If it wasn’t for Ann, Rush and Sean H. and the hundreds of like-minded conservatives here on FR I would have gone out of my mind today. It’s comforting to know there are so many like minded conservatives out there willing to continue to battle onward. We’ve had a setback but the war is only beginning.

Lliberals got thousands of credit cards that you put money on and donated many times over the amount allowed to Obama's campaign.

They are untraceable as to who the money came from.

Over 5 million dollars a day to Obama, amazing.

I doubt Ann will run though, she's too busy.

Yeah, I’ve been holding back because the Obamination is so bad, but McCain was a pathetic choice.

He’s a hero — but a cruddy candidate and a liberal who keeps “reaching across the isle” like Charlie Brown did with Lucy and the football. Complete idiot.
