An article in a local Wisconsin newspaper brings out the liberal moonbats. What is interesting is that La Crosse is in the middle of it's big October Fest celebrations. It'll be interesting to see where he holds his rally and how many people will appreciate him "crashing the party" with politics. I posted this story because I thought it might be fun to see the remarks section of the Obama story Freeped. La Crosse doesn't have alot of vocal conservatives, so the blogger sections of stories are usually dominated by local libs.

Today we look at the latest from New airstrikes in Pakistan, as well as the latest inside Afghanistan with Bill Roggio from the Long War Journal. Also, Cloud Morris, US Civil Libertarian and an attorney visits to bring the loyal opposition's point of view about arrests at the RNC Convention in Minneapolis Last Week, plus your emails.

Ann Fisher commentary: This work is nothing to sneer at Monday, September 8, 2008 3:12 AM By Ann Fisher In her acceptance speech last week, the GOP nominee for vice president took aim at the Democratic nominee for president, trashing Barack Obama's work as a community organizer. But the ammo landed like so much shrapnel in the hearts and minds of community organizers across the country. Community Organizers of America launched a Web site and demanded an apology. The National Association of Social Workers issued an angry news release, with the Ohio chapter and others following suit. Here's what angered...

If at times, it is not easy to determine what a liberal is, it’s because during presidential election campaigns, politicians who have been voting like liberals, talking like liberals and boasting about their liberal credentials, suddenly insist that they’re really centrists as they go about trying to garner the votes of gullible Republicans and Independents. It’s rather like Michelle Obama trying to convince us that she’s just another stay-at-home mom who loves America and her kids, and in exactly that order. Most of us on the right can spot a liberal a mile away, just as easily as experienced bird...

Ok Freepers, I need some assistance on a Indiana forum, Obambi opened up 16 new offices there, I seem to be the lone wolf amidst a crowd of hunters. http://www.southbendforum.com HELP FREEPERS!

NPR's IQ   The Litmus test of NPR's intelligence...   On August 18, 2008, Jonathan Capehart sitting in for Leonard Lopate Show - WNYC , www.WNYC.org  (212 433 9292) [NPR's outlet in NY] interviewed in the last part of of the first hour Liz from 'The Daily News', first Liz brushed off any doubts if NY Yorkers are behind Hillary, "everybody is for NY" - she "decided",  yet, Jonathan in his desperation and worry that Mccain might win NY (NPR is independent" of course...),  asked her "but... there's no chance Mccain can win NY, Right?" Liz was "struggling" with Obama's loss from...

When Liberals just can't take it - Conservatives' SuccessAugust 17, 2008 Sadness at Libs-Nation at Obama-nation's number one on NYTimes best sellers list. So, somebody at the Liberal community dropped a 'bomb-rumor' that conservatives were bulk-buying the book and that was/is the "reason" for it being the number 1 best seller. From then on it became a "fact" by reporters, such journalists that pride on being thorough on real facts like: 'Newsweek' explained it not just as a probable cause, but as, again, a "fact". Without addressing if there was a bulk buying by cons. or not. First, Is anyone...

It seems that 'Media matters' is OK with murder in its name August 15, 2008 'Media matters' is basically a radical group that poses as "fighting inaccuracy", in it's fanatical goal it even cows to Islamic militants' actvists such as "CAIR" and those that dare criticize militant Islamic terrorism against the entire world in the name of Islam and its attempts of conquest (otherwise known as Islamo-fascism) as "islamophobes" their "charge" against Michael Savage (for speaking out against this danger) who just (15 August, 2008) stopped his valid case against CAIR for defamation.. only because of advisors advising him that CAIR's tactics might...

Another Ugly Michelle Obama moment... Another Ugly Michelle Obama moment... lies through her teeth that she "didn't" see the 'Paris Hilton ad' but then again she commented on it nevertheless. August 7, 2008 On ABC's GMA (GoodMorningAmerica) Robin Roberts, who's another propagandist for Obama, interviews Michelle Obama. Robin just "had" to throw that pitch in "Michelle is advocating for women that have relatives serving in Iraq", which is of course nothing but a political stunt, she only met with a few women so she can have a photo-up as a propaganda cheap "answer" to Barack's lowness of avoiding the wounded...

Straight from the Horse's mouth: NPR's admission of unfairness -  says media does NOT have to be fair!   August 5, 2008: First, the infamous "fair" NPR had a person a self proclaimed "expert" in energy.., in order to sweeten-up Obama's argument and politics, claimed the usual nonsense that "nothing would effect the prices of oil" stating it over and over again, without any iota of evidence or logic of course, the "expert" even mentioned that "people are talking about inflating tires", What a BS! as if no one knows that it was ONLY Barack Obama that flipped and spoke rubbish, What a cheap attempt...

   STRATEGY TO WIN - 2008   August 3, 2008   Note: Those tactics that might seem to be too 'daring', should be done by proxies, Learn that from Obama, he has others doing it for him, only AFTER the damage is done, he "apologizes" or "denounces" them...     1) Run a poster: of the "group of friends" He is associated with, Wright, James Meeks, Ludacris, etc. - 'tell me who your friends are...'   2) Reveal: He has NOTHING to offer, he has no issue he is "pro" or "for", but is running purely on an "anti", on an anti-incumbent...

  WELCOME TO OBAMA-NATION     "Master" in economics and 'in touch' with reality: He's gonna "fix" the INFLATION by INFLATING your TIRES, increase domestic 'GAS' (all over the 57 ? States...) by pumping more 'AIR'..., will tune down NEW oil prices by an OLD 'tune up', will free us from the grip of Arab oil if we just pay a visit to a mechanic of the 1970's.     "Change":   Obama: Change, change, ??? but (asides from changing his mind a few times about any issue...) I won't tell you what change you are about to "get" .     "Sincere...

Democrats do not take Islamofascism threat seriously Democrats do not take the threat to our civilization by Islamo-fascists seriously. They think defending our country against them is a job for cops, not the military. They want to try terrorists in our civilian courts as if they were petty criminals. And now, a senior advisor to Obama says the following: In arguing that the country should back off a policy that causes too much pain, Danzig said, “”Winnie the Pooh seems to me to be a fundamental text on national security.”He read a section from the children’s book where Pooh...

When Netroots Nation organizers were considering New Orleans as the host site of their convention devoted to the Internet as an instrument of the political left, Texas Netroots members made a convincing case that Texas is at the center of the blogging culture driving the political discussion for liberals. In an online vote conducted by Netroots Nation, a Web site for liberal bloggers to exchange ideas, the nation overwhelmingly chose Austin for this year's conference, said Vince Leibowitz, a blogger from Tyler. So on Thursday, more than 3,000 bloggers are expected to fill the Austin Convention Center for the four-day...

A new detail about the courtship of Michelle Obama: It took two years for Obama to finally propose. Though she knew he didn't fear commitment, Michelle had become a bit irritated with his struggle over whether marriage had become an outdated institution. Wow. And with this offhand comment, a thousand new excuses are born. "Honey, it's not that I fear commitment. It's that I'm struggling over whether marriage has become an outdated institution." I recall from that other Obama profile in the New Yorker, this one on Michelle: Barack had a more bohemian attitude toward romance. “We would have this...

Didn't you just know this was coming? A consortium of Western oil companies — the very definition of Big Oil — is on the verge of receiving no-bid contracts in Iraq, giving them access to one of the most sought-after prizes in the petroleum industry, according to The New York Times. Can it be mere coincidence that the leading companies in the deal — ExxonMobil, Shell, BP and Total — are the very same companies that Saddam Hussein threw out when he nationalized the Iraqi oil industry more than three decades ago? The American public has been reassured, repeatedly, that...

City proposal targets aggressive panhandling Tuesday, June 17, 2008 10:59 PM By Bobby Pierce THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH Columbus' panhandlers might have to watch their step to continue soliciting in the city. Aggressive panhandling was the topic at a City Council public hearing tonight. Councilman Andrew Ginther moderated the testimony of 12 Columbus residents, as well as the deputy safety director, assistant city attorney and a police officer. “You can't simply throw panhandlers in jail,” Ginther had said last week. “Some are following people for blocks; in the University area, people feel badgered and threatened; they are coming up to people...

What's Obama's strength? Is it? A) - He's different than your usual candidate, different in: looks, age, style. B) - He's a good actor in not showing his nervous emotions, playing it "cool" even when sh*tting in his pants. C) - Anti Bushi-sm. D) - Esploiting the war in Iraq.

Return to the Article June 07, 2008The Audacity of the DemocratsBy Rocco DiPippo There was a pre-Lewinsky time, before moral relativism blurred America's vision, when associating with people like Jeremiah Wright and William Ayers would have automatically excluded someone from attaining the highest office in the land. Back then, anyone with well known connections to such America-averse personalities would have been rejected by a super-majority of the electorate during primary season and almost certainly blocked by the Democratic Party before they could have gotten to within a mile of the White House. But those days -- when patriotic, true...

Why is URUKNET Posting TP Articles? May 1, 2008 The Islamic militant propaganda dissemination outlet (in English!) called “URUKnet” usually translates dubious reports and propaganda from Iraq for English and Italian speaking readers. Well, today I see that they are reproducing a Think Progress (Islamo-Stalinist) post as well as their usual Islamic terrorist, Islamic militant propaganda and lies. You know… to mix things up a bit. Don’t think that the Islamo-Leftist Alliance exists?

The headline may seem like a trick question — even a dangerous one — to ask during an election year. And notice, please, that I didn’t ask whether certain politicians are more honest than others. (Politicians are a different species altogether.) Yet there is a striking gap between the manner in which liberals and conservatives address the issue of honesty. Consider these results: Is it OK to cheat on your taxes? A total of 57 percent of those who described themselves as “very liberal” said yes in response to the World Values Survey, compared with only 20 percent of those...

There are major differences between liberals and conservatives, and that’s why I never know what people such as Barack Obama are talking about when they speak of bringing us all together. And I suspect that Jeremiah Wright’s surrogate son doesn’t know, either. For instance, if I support the surge in Iraq and you insist on bringing the troops home by next Thursday, what’s our compromise? Bringing our troops only partway home? Say as far as the Canary Islands? If you’re in favor of same-sex marriages and I happen to think the whole idea is a very silly joke, where’s our...

The apparent madness of Leftists opposing any drilling for oil in ANWR, where the environmental impact is practically nil and which would immediately begin to ratchet down the price of oil, and Leftists simultaneously railing against big oil companies for high oil prices is only apparently mad. The Left wants the price of oil high. The Left wants the price of all necessities like food and medicine high. The fact that this causes general misery and that this causes particular misery among the lower middle class does not prevent the Left from taking this perverse position. That fact is the...

Let's worry about Islamofascism The resolution adopted by Muslim theologians representing the various schools of Islam at the All-India Anti-terrorism Conference organised by Darul Uloom, Deoband, 'denouncing' terrorism but condoning radical Islam's ghastly excesses, apart from remaining silent on Islamist terrorism in India which continues to extract a terrible price, is of a piece with the Observatory Report on Islamophobia released by the Organisation of Islamic Conference at its recent meeting in Dakar, Senegal. Both documents seek to justify manufactured Muslim rage and lay the blame for the resultant death and destruction at the doors of everybody else but...

WASHINGTON - Just when liberals thought it was safe to start identifying themselves as such, an acclaimed, veteran psychiatrist is making the case that the ideology motivating them is actually a mental disorder. "Based on strikingly irrational beliefs and emotions, modern liberals relentlessly undermine the most important principles on which our freedoms were founded," says Dr. Lyle Rossiter, author of the new book, "The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness." "Like spoiled, angry children, they rebel against the normal responsibilities of adulthood and demand that a parental government meet their needs from cradle to grave." While political activists...

Last August, during an appearance before the National Association of Black Journalists, Barack Obama was asked whether he'd lead the nation in a "conversation about race" if he were elected president. He demurred, suggesting that Americans were more interested in having a president who would fight terrorism and economic decline than one who acted as therapist-in-chief. It was a pragmatic response from the man trying to become the nation's first black president. He'd never win over substantial numbers of white or brown or even black voters if he seemed overly focused on America's racial divide. But the issue of race...

Eliot Spitzer has remained governor longer than most people expected after 4 pm ET yesterday. When the news broke that the former prosecutor who once bragged of busting a prostitution ring had recently decided to patronize another, most people assumed that his admission would be quickly followed by an exit from the political stage. However, despite numerous calls for his resignation, Spitzer has not yet departed: Stunned politicians in both parties last night called on Gov. Spitzer to resign.Democratic Assemblyman John McEneny (Albany) said:“I don’t think anyone remembers anything like this. The fact that the governor has a reputation as...

How do you get 6,000 college students whipped up into a lather? Here's one way: Secretly install low-flow, eco-shower heads in their dorms over winter break. The slow drip has triggered a deluge of complaints in bathrooms all over Stanford University. But a compromise may be ending the water wars. Officials now promise to retrofit hundreds of showers with politically incorrect, higher-pressure nozzles. With a fury normally reserved for the University of California-Berkeley, students complained in an e-mail petition, a letter-writing campaign, a newspaper editorial and meetings with Stanford officials. "It is like showering under a sink faucet," said Christian...

... it gets to make choices about what -- and whom -- to cover. A survey of doctors in Britain's National Health Service show that a significant percentage of providers want government to cut off benefits to the elderly, the obese, smokers, and others: Doctors are calling for NHS treatment to be withheld from patients who are too old or who lead unhealthy lives. Smokers, heavy drinkers, the obese and the elderly should be barred from receiving some operations, according to doctors, with most saying the health service cannot afford to provide free care to everyone. Fertility treatment and "social"...

(Sick of) OBAMA'S "THE NOTION THAT SOMEHOW"As liberals liked/like to ridicule Rudy (and others) on their vocabulary, it strikes me as odd that the followibng boring one sentence, which is basically Oabama's siganture -- isn't noticed, frankly I am getting sick of it...Nov. 8, 2007Obama: You know, it was hard to take such a claim seriously. I mean, he was specifically referring to a situation in the debate where Senator Clinton offered an answer on immigration, a perfectly legitimate question. Senator Dodd in very civil tones said, "I respectfully disagree." Senator Clinton then appeared to contradict her own answer, and...

War on [Islamofascism] terror is real, and deserves concern December 16, 2007 Editor, the Record: Take notice, liberals (specifically the few John Edwards supporters out there). A recent news headline reads: "Thousands in Sudan Call for British Teddy Bear Teacher's Execution." In summary, thousands of practitioners of Islam, the "religion of peace," are calling for the death of an emigrant British teacher for nothing more than naming a teddy bear after Mohammed. This type of irresponsible behavior may not come as a surprise to most sensible Americans, as they realize the threat of Islamofascism is very real, and if not...

Legislators must take a stand and stop the cycle Drivers passing through Georgia often go home with their trunks filled with pecans, peaches, peanuts or other souvenirs. Unfortunately, some also head home with guns, giving rise to the term "iron pipeline" to describe the illegal flow of firearms from Georgia to the Northeast. The state's weak gun laws make it easier for criminals to buy a firearm here than in New York or New Jersey, where tighter controls govern firearm sales. Those states, for example, require background checks for purchases at gun shows, and permits and waiting periods to buy...

Clegg on the slide in Lib pollThe front runner for the Lib Dem leadership was said to be fading yesterday as voting started. Nick Clegg suffered a crisis of confidence after a shaky week. But his camp claimed that the race was still 60/40 in their favour. Meanwhile, a supporter of rival Chris Huhne said it was as "at worst 50/50, at best Chris is edging it". Advertisement Clegg, the Home Affairs spokesman, started as favourite to replace Sir Menzies Campbell, getting the support of most of the party's 63 MPs. But as the contest became dirty this week, he...

Cambridge votes down scouts’ aid for Iraq GIs By Mike Underwood Friday, November 16, 2007 Big-hearted Boy Scouts collecting donations for care packages for U.S. troops are still scratching their heads after being sent packing from polling stations when Cambridge officials ruled their generous effort “political.” “We just wanted to make a lot of troops happy,” said Scout Patrick O’Connor, 16. “I was devastated that someone would think to take (the donation boxes) out,” he said. O’Connor of West Cambridge was one of the Scouts who wanted to collect toiletries, magazines, candy and other items for care packages after one...

Clinton's planted student speaks out, says she just wants honesty - Tue Nov 13 2007 08:17:37 ET The college student who says she was told what question to ask at one of Sen. Hillary Clinton's campaign events--and whose story in her campus newspaper has now made its way around the world--said Monday that "voters have a right to know what happened, adding that she "wasn't the only one at the event who was a plant." In an exclusive taped interview with CNN, Muriel Gallo-Chasanoff, a sophomore at Grinnell College in Grinnell, Iowa, said that giving anyone specific questions to ask...

Tom Bevan Krugman's Fear http://news.yahoo.com/s/realclearpolitics/20071029/cm_rcp/krugmans_fear ...Apparently, being in favor of a strong response to terrorism now means you're a bigot as well. It's a ridiculous, ad hominem attack, and one that perhaps obscures the larger importance of the rest of the column. Krugman is in many ways a weather vane of liberal opinion, though he doesn't so much generate new ideas as regurgitate and amplify what he sees and hears among his clique in the liberal intelligentsia and the progressive blogosphere. And this column offers a couple of excellent clues about how the left would like to frame this election,...

The Left Tries to Quash Free Speech October 23rd, 2007 by Warner Todd Huston Once again, the fascist left tries to quash free speech on one of our oppressive University campuses. Here is a great report on it from some folks who banded together to record the event on video and photographs.Nonie Darwish at Berkeley during Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week. “Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week� is a nationwide series of lectures and presentations organized by conservative writer David Horowitz and his various organizations. On the evening of October 22, dozens of famous speakers gave lectures at universities around the country, mostly on...

Hitchens: Islamofascism a Valid Term At Slate, Christopher Hitchens defends the use of the term “Islamofascism� to good effect.Hitchens first takes on the faux-intellectuals who refuse to make the obvious connection between modern, radical Islam and manner of life that imposes on those unlucky enough to fall under its sway: It’s quite the done thing, in liberal academic circles, to sneer at any comparison between fascist and jihadist ideology. People like Tony Judt write to me to say, in effect, that it’s ahistorical and simplistic to do so. And in some media circles, another kind of reluctance applies: Alan Colmes...

Senator Sam Brownback, a Republican trying to inject new life into his beleaguered presidential campaign, plans to offer a resolution this week for Congress to apologize for slavery and segregation. Brownback, of Kansas, told The Boston Globe's editorial board yesterday he will join an unnamed Democrat in sponsoring the proposal. He said he expects a tough fight on the resolution, even though it will not include any call for reparations. "They were federal policies," he said. "They were wrong. The only way for us to move forward . . . is at the end of day acknowledging those, taking ownership...

9th Circuit: Sex offenders welcome here! Over the years, the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals has earned itself a reputation as the legal bastion of San Francisco looniness, and a recent decision will do nothing to change that. On Tuesday, the court decided that Alberto Quintero-Salazar - a Mexican national and legal resident of the U.S. - could not be deported on the basis of a sex crime he committed in 1998, namely illegal intercourse between an adult over 21 and a youth under 16. According to the court, adults taking sexual advantage of a minor (so long as...

If the increasingly conventional wisdom that the Netroots movement is now the driving force behind today's Democrat Party is true, than a look into their actual agenda for America is something voters considering supporting Democrat politicians in 2008 might want to take a very close look at. It's posted by Chris Bowers at Open Left and looked at in plain terms, is substantial and should give conservatives and Libertarians cause for concern. Below are just some bullet points from the larger plan. You think the "Fairness Doctrine" is bad, you haven't seen anything yet: Reversing Corporate Media Consolidation. Using improved...

It's not exactly the old-time religion, but suddenly there's sawdust on the trail. If some other worthy actually wins the Democratic nomination, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama have a new career open to them, reprising Jim and Tammy Faye. Praise the Lord. Just when everyone thought that no Democrat wanted to be caught in church dead or alive, it's revival time. First Hillary started talking about the influence of the Methodist social gospel on her life — this must have been heck all these years for Bubba, a hymn-singing good ol' Baptist boy — and now Barack Obama invokes God...

Brad Pitt has spoken about his choice for next President of the United States – His good pal George Clooney!

We think Ben Affleck would be better suited. He needs a career...
