“Firing the CEO of GM and giving Chrysler to the Unions by sticking it to bond holders wasn't exactly pro big business”

“Why not Krugman? He actually is an accredited economist”

“I think you mean Richard Armitage don't you?”

“She just won the Presidential Medal of Freedom....quite possibly the worst choice in History. Team Obama awards it to her tomorrow

Durban is not the only reason Ms. Robinson should not receive the Medal of Freedom. Over the years she has actively opposed “the security or national interests of the United States,” one of the categories of eligibility for the Medal. Those in the administration who recommended her either ignored her anti-Israel history, or missed it entirely, as they either ignored or overlooked her hostility toward America’s role in promoting international peace and security. Or perhaps they share Ms. Robinson’s views.
Criticism of Mr. Obama’s award, to be officially bestowed tomorrow, has centered on Ms. Robinson’s central organizing role as secretary general of the 2001 “World Conference Against Racism” in Durban, South Africa. Instead of concentrating on its purported objectives, Durban was virulently anti-Semitic, anti-Israel, and at least implicitly anti-American.

So vile was the conference’s draft declaration that Secretary of State Colin Powell correctly called it “a throwback to the days of ‘Zionism equals racism,’” referring to the infamous 1975 U.N. General Assembly resolution to that effect. President George W. Bush (whose father led the 1991 campaign that repealed the U.N.’s “Zionism is a form of racism” resolution) unhesitatingly agreed when Mr. Powell recommended the U.S. delegation leave the Durban conference rather than legitimize the outcome.”

“Funny how Beck satire is blasted for racism and yet Mary Robinson's Durban I & II anti semetic focus is widely accepted.

Truly, racisim exists only in the eye of the beholder”

“How would you rate janine garafalo's performance?”

“The UAW at Chrysler will now have to actually work for 40 hours before collecting overtime....now that's what I call sacrifice. :roll:”

“Bush served over a 6 year period and was discharged honorably. His service echoed many elites who never had eyes on the presidency, unlike Gore "I aint no senator's son" and Silver Star Kerry who brought his own 8mm camera over there to make movies of himself. The rest on your list are weenies and dodgers, but conspicuously absent is WJC.

I would never bad talk the guard, or any other, but Kerry lied about his service and the service of his peers like few ever have, and should be held just as accountable. It is not about political party. It is about the intentional disservice to the military.”

“Still, at 47, I never received vaccinations before I was 3 years old. Most kids have had several by then. Is it so necessary to have them when they are so formative? We made a great leap of faith when we vaccinated both our kids.”

“His legacy was cleaned up nicely by President Carter in 1976. Until he signs and completely submits his form 183, his legacy will forever be subject to challenges from all sides of the Viet Nam war. Half truths are exactly that. They are just like little lies”

“subverting the electoral system with phony absentee ballots is scary, and then getting canvassing boards to accept your phony absentee ballots until you win and then shutting down the count of all the remaining absentee ballots claiming they are disqualified. I believe there is a do over in Minnesota with this problem certainly exacerbated by the intentional fraudulent behavior of ACORN.

don't expect Waxman to be investigating them anytime soon....4 billion strong now...time to register those illegals next and get them into the census”

“Two words stand in your way my friend.

Eric Holder”

“Exactly, and the Episcopal Church awaits you with open arms. I prefer alleged Catholic to fake Catholic. It just sounds better.”

“But the Dow stood at 9,625 on Election Day. I don't see how what has happened since then can be seen as anything but a vote of no confidence in Obamanomics, both as projected during the campaign and as implemented since Obama's inauguration.”

“He's dangerous because he is light on economics and even lighter on world history.

He's spending more time away from the WH than W. He spent most of his senatorial career out of DC. He cannot afford to behave this way, or the House and Senate will destroy his presidency. He needs to flex some of that political capital he earned from the voters and push back on some of the stupidity that is dragging down his ability to run the country.”

“every time he opens his grill the market drops another 500pts...can't say he inherited that”

“Because he was instrumental in getting pardons for terrorists and arms dealers?”

“the only way this article could be more goofy and factually incomplete is if Paul the-great-­unravel-er Krugman had written.

who wrote some thing akin to?:

we contend that a government's intention to tax a society into prosperity is much the same as a man standing in a bucket trying to lift himself up by the handle”

“Dems flip flopped against McCain only when he became the Rep nominee. They sure didn't mind him when he might've run against Bush as Kerry's VP. He really should choose Lieberman so all the schizo's can have chance for a greasy hero.”

“I wonder how many Hillary votes were same-day registrars who drove over for the day from Massatwosh*ts”

“He did call Hillary's 3rd place finish in Iowa a full three days before the caucus, and hung that out there for all to belittle.

He's a journalist, that's for sure. Why he protected Armitage is one question I'd have asked him. If you're going to blow one person's career with scoop from another in a position to exploit, why not get them too? That's what they usually do.
