Jimmah: I never said Obama Protesters were Racist

Posted on 01 October 2009 by Mr. Harrington

Really Mr. President?

So when he said,

“I think an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he’s African-American,”

He really meant:

Those who attacked Obama as a person were tinged by racism.

Oops, You Got Me, It’s Because He’s Black

Posted on 16 September 2009 by Mr. Jones

Former Failure

Former Failure

Former President (and abject failure) Jimmy Carter told NBC Nightly News Teusday that “an overwhelming portion of the intensely demonstrated animosity toward President Barack Obama is based on the fact that he is a black man, that he’s African-American.”
Not even a year into the Obama presidency, and already his policies are too difficult to defend without using the “racism” straw man. Where is Carter’s proof of this racism? Calling Tea Party Patriots and people who are against the healthcare overhaul is crying wolf. Anyone who dares criticize this President or his policies is branded a racist. The liberals who are crying wolf are making the word “racist” so meaningless that it is becoming a bad joke. This behavior undermines the real progress we have made as Americans to defeat racism.
It is a sad day when liberals must brand ordinary Americans as racists in order to believe there is still a reason for supporting this President.

…Or maybe I am wrong, maybe I really do just hate a black man being president. All this time, I thought it was things like:
9 trillion dollars of debt,
Fist bumps with Hugo Chavez,
Former Green Jobs Czar – Van Jones- self avowed communist,
Regulatory Czar – Cass R. Sunstein – believes animals have a right to a lawyer,
California Water Czar – David J. Hayes,
Car Czar – Ron Bloom,
Pay Czar – Kenneth R. Feinberg,
Science Czar – John Holdren- believes in sterilization through drinking water,
The other 26 czars,
Government takeover of GM,
Government takeover of Chrysler,
Closing Gitmo without planning a new place for detainees,
Government support of some banks and destruction of others,
The $787 billion economic porkulus package,
Cap & Tax,
Threatening to throw AIG execs into the angry SEIU mobs,
The Rathke Brothers,
“Stupid” cops,
A racist Supreme Court judge- who quotes Norman Thomas,
Threats to bankrupt the coal industry,
Stroking class envy,
NEA calling artists and funding + creating propaganda artwork,
The money grubbing, corrupt, child-sex pedaling, tax fraud advising ACORN,
Cash for Clunkers,
School speech asking children how they can personally “help the president”,
For the disturbing celebrity “i-pledge” video,
Using Kennedy’s death to push a healthcare bill,
Making sure MSNBC and General Electric are in fiscal bed with this administration,
Authorizing $2B for Oil Drilling in Brazil, but not in the United states because it wouldn’t make the administration look “green”,
For voting a man in who thinks he is “gods parter in matters of life and death”,
Flag@Whitehouse.gov,
SEIU members beating people up at Healthcare townhall meetings,
Accusing people attending healthcare townhalls and teaparties nothing but “racist white men” who “hate the black president”,
The embarrassing “disinformation” video,
Cars.gov making your computer government property,
Half-baked conspiracy about the CIA lying to Congress,
Afghanistan,
Articles in Newsweek explaining “Obama is a better Catholic than the Pope”,
An administration insisting that government should be the one creating competition with insurance companies, and not allowing competition in the free market through state lines,
Dead people receiving economic porkulus checks,
Democrat Congresswoman Schakowsky bragging about destroying the health insurance industry,

…But maybe I’m just a knuckle-dragging racist simpleton.

Astroturf: Who is Really Laying Down Sod?

Posted on 15 August 2009 by Mr. Harrington

Folks, I was curious about people calling the health care protests “astroturf;” meaning, the protesters are recruited to be there by right-wing fringe leaders like Glenn Beck, Sean Hannity, Bill O’Reilly, and, the mobfather himself, Rush Limbaugh.

But, people seem to be missing the point.  Nancy Pelosi, for example, called those asking questions of the Messiah “Un-American.”  But, in 2006, she said, “I’m a fan of disruptors.”

Check it out here.

Barack Obama said that those questioning him are being funded by Big Insurance…If only he had proof…

And he also blames the “ruckus” on “cable news.” Now, ladies and gentlemen, let’s not be dim here.  He means Fox News.

But, if it turns out these groups are getting marching orders from groups,–in the words of Rush Limbaugh–’bout damn time.

And I completely agree.  The aggressor sets the rules, folks.  The left-wing loons set a precedent for disruptive behavior, and to refer to the questioning of an elected official as “Un-American” is simply that.

Now, let’s take a look at the real astroturf.

Now, I must admit, I get my marching orders from MoveOn.org.  I receive their email…just so I can know what’s going on in the world outside of my God and Guns…

Here is part of an email from August 7, 2009:

Check it out–as well as just who is laying astroturf–after the jump…

Also, Sheila Jackson’s townhall: a complete SHAM…

Anger Brewing

Posted on 07 August 2009 by Mr. Harrington

Folks, this post will be a compilation of videos and stories describing the anger that is brewing against the health care bill.

I will begin with the White House telling Democrats to “Punch harder.”

Jim Messina, deputy Chief of Staff, said, “If you get hit, we will punch back twice as hard.”

Union thugs beat up a protester in Tampa:

Here are two videos showing Union members allowed into a town hall, while average Americans are not allowed in.

Check them out here.

Here is what Obama had to say:

“But I don’t want the folks who created the mess to do a lot of talking. I want them to get out of the way so we can clean up the mess. I don’t mind cleaning up after them, but don’t do a lot of talking.”

Yeah, I’ll bet you…

"Tea Parties Unhealthy."

Posted on 19 April 2009 by Mr. Harrington

Ladies and gentlemen, David Axelrod said that the Tea Party movement is “unhealthy.”

Axelrod: “I think any time you have severe economic conditions there is always an element of disaffection that can mutate into something that’s unhealthy.”

Axelrod: “The thing that bewilders me is that this president just cut taxes for 95 percent of the American people.  I think the tea bags should be directed elsewhere because he certainly understands the burden that people face.”

Umm…two things…When did Obama cut taxes for 95% of us?  And I’ll show Mr. Axelrod where the tea bags should be directed!

And in a totally unrelated line of questioning from the interviewer, Mr. Axelrod was asked for a response about Texas and the governor’s assertion that they could secede if the people wanted it.  He responded, “I don’t think that really warrants a serious response.  I don’t think most Texans were all that enthused by the governor’s suggestion.”

Sir.  A state is saying it can and will secede if the people so choose…And it doesn’t warrant a serious response?

"But I didn't know this was going to be partisan politics…"

Posted on 17 September 2008 by Mr. Harrington

Ladies and gentlemen, in a turn of events which is eerily similar to the recent SNL skit which everyone is watching, Hillary Clinton has removed herself from a rally against a nuclear Iran because Sarah Palin will be there.

Her excuse for backing out as reported at Fox News accessed September 16, 2008: “Her [Palin's] attendance was news to us, and this was never billed to us as a partisan political event,” Clinton spokesman Philippe Reines said Wednesday. “Sen. Clinton will therefore not be attending.”

Folks, it was not partisan politics until Senator Clinton made it partisan politics. Hillary Clinton made it partisan politics when she said her reason for not going is Governor Palin. Protecting Isreal is not a partisan issue, it isn’t even an issue which should be debated. There is a country–Iran–which wants to push the Jews into the sea, and we–America–should do everything we can to aid our ally.

I see no room for debate. If you do, feel free.

Apparently Senator Clinton sees partisan politics in aiding a friend.
