It's George Wallace's GOP Now

It's George Wallace's GOP Now Like Wallace and his supporters 40 years ago, today's conservative populists are long on anger and short on coherence. by Jonathan Rauch Saturday, Feb. 27, 2010 The history of the modern Republican Party in one sentence: Barry Goldwater and Nelson Rockefeller got into an argument and George Wallace won. OK, footnotes are required. The most important is that racism, a central factor in Wallace's career, is marginal in today's Republican Party. In fact, if there is anything Republicans like about President Obama, it is the racial breakthrough that his election represents. Nothing in this article implies that the GOP is a racist party. ...

Zapatista Candidate for Ohio Governor

Democrat, a Republican, a Green, and a Libertarian aren’t enough, we’ve got a Zapatista candidate for governor. Sean Swain is running as a write-in – from his prison cell. Again. Swain ran in 2006 (the Secretary of State’s Office doesn’t record any write-in votes on its web site). This time again he’s running from Mansfield Correctional Institution and I must say – he’s got a pretty impressive web site. His goal: ”Steer Ohio into a corporation- and bank-free future.” He also claims to be the only candidate to seek endorsements from Fidel Castro, Hugh Chavez, and of course, Subcommandante Marcos http://cincinnati.com/blogs/politics/2010 ...

Operation Northwoods was a plot drawn up by the US Joint Chiefs of Staff for the CIA to commit acts of terrorism in American cities and fabricate evidence blaming Castro so that the US could gain domestic and international support for regime change in Cuba. The secret plan was nixed by President John F. Kennedy and was declassified by the John F. Kennedy Assassination Records Review Board, says Paul Craig Roberts. The Washington Times is a newspaper that looks with favor upon the Bush/Cheney/Obama/neocon wars of aggression in the Middle East and favors making terrorists pay for 9/11. Therefore, I was surprised to learn on February 24 that the most popular story on the paper's website ...

Pee-Wee for President? (Luap Nor A/K/A Republican Party's "Crazy Uncle")

Ron Paul has won the CPAC straw Presidential vote with 31 percent of the total. This is dismaying, to the extent one takes it seriously. Ron Paul is the crazy uncle in the Republican Party's attic. He is not a principled libertarian like, say, Steve Forbes. Rather, as I noted in this post, where I likened him to Pee-Wee Herman, Paul has a rather sinister history as a hater and conspiracy theorist. He has no business being taken seriously as a Presidential contender--and that's before we even start talking about his inadequate vision of national security or his disgraceful performance in the 2008 Presidential debates. - - - - - The "Pee-Wee Herman" of the Republican ...

There is something very, very wrong about the Olympics that no one is talking about; it's the same thing that was wrong with Expo67. There is a real prospect the Olympic 'spirit' will end in slavery and civilizational death. The Olympic Death Wish by Frank Hilliard Let's start with this quote from today's Globe & Mail, one of many extolling the spirit of the Olympics. Visitors all say Vancouver is a positive love fest: Juggler David Aiken - a.k.a. The Checkerboard Guy - performs two shows a day. Mr. Aiken said the atmosphere at Vancouver's Olympic epicentre is electric. A veteran street performer, he said it's a joy to watch people from different nations ...

Have Conservatives Learned Their Lesson?

On Wednesday, conservative leaders produced a long-awaited and closely held Mount Vernon Statement. Conservatives and politicos waited with bated breath, and then collectively said "is that it?" There's nothing wrong with restating longstanding principles, but it didn't seem to tell us much about "the state of conservatism." What did tell me something very disturbing about the state of conservatism was Mitt Romney's speech at CPAC. It was a well-written and well-delivered speech, and I agreed with much of what I heard on C-SPAN Radio. But after all the talk about how Republicans have learned their lessons, how they know that they went badly awry during the ...

Sarah Palin and the mutual loathing society

Sarah Palin and the mutual loathing society The Republican presidential nominee, an Arizona senator, was a maverick, which was part of his charm. He spoke and acted impulsively, which was part of his problem. Voters thought his entertaining dimensions might be incompatible with presidential responsibilities. For example, he selected a running mate most Americans had never heard of and who had negligible experience pertinent to the presidency. This was 1964. Barry Goldwater, whose seat John McCain occupies, chose to run with Bill Miller, a congressman from Lockport, N.Y., near Buffalo. Miller, Goldwater cheerfully explained, annoyed Lyndon Johnson. After the Goldwater-Miller ticket lost 44 ...

While The GOP Bashes Obama For Adopting Bush Terror Policies, The U.S. Makes Gains Against The Taliban And al-Qaida

An extraordinary array of Republicans have been bashing the administration for "Mirandizing" Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab over the last few days -- including Lindsey Graham, Kit Bond, Rudy Giuliani, Mitch McConnell and Michele Bachmann, to name a few -- even as the media admirably did its job reporting that the Bush administration had Mirandized every single terror suspect caught on its watch as well. Despite those facts, former Vice President Dick Cheney stepped up the attack on Obama Sunday on ABC's "This Week" -- and also admitted he's a war criminal (but more on that later.) Meanwhile, U.S. forces captured the most powerful Taliban leader they've grabbed ...

My job as a socially responsible blogger is to sometimes say sh*t that hurts, with intentions of waking people up and steering them in the right direction. One thing that continues to hold black folks back is bassackwards self-limiting behavior that's best evidenced in some of the Negro Talking Points that many of us utilize on the regular. Until we eliminate these phrases from our collective vocabularies, we will stay losin'. And I don't want us to stay losin', I want us to start winnin'.

Palin Exposes the Tea Partiers' True Colors [Full Thread]

The tea party movement started as a welcome protest against the alarming growth of federal spending and federal control. It had a strong anti-statist flavor, or seemed to. But judging from the applause for Sarah Palin at its convention, the movement's suspicion of government power is exceeded only by its worship of government power. Her keynote address at last week's gathering in Nashville may have been the curtain raiser on a 2012 presidential campaign. "I think that it would be absurd to not consider what it is that I can potentially do to help our country," she told Fox News when asked about that option. I'm glad it was she and not I who first used the word ...

PR Nightmare for Wine Company Supporting HSUS By Cindy Posted: February 4, 2010 The folks at Yellow Tail Wine must have thought they were making a great humane statement when they contributed $100,000 to the radical animal rights group HSUS and agreed to have “special [yellow tail] displays bearing The HSUS name and logo in stores across the country.” Instead, it has turned into a public relations nightmare for the company, burning up the social media platforms with protests over their support of the group that is threatening animal agriculture production as we know it in this nation.

Forget about Sarah Palin writing on her hand. Forget about her resigning as governor of Alaska a little over halfway through her first term for no reason other than she was tired of it. Forget that her husband thinks Alaska should be its own country and was essentially co-governor. Forget that she shoots wolves from helicopters for fun. Forget all about those things as arguments against Sarah Palin when you are dealing with the people who love her. They don't care. All of those things just make her delightfully regular and sympathetically human. See, Sarah Palin is graded on the hot chick curve. Men wanna fuck her and women with low self-esteem wanna be her, so whatever she does just ...

February 7, 2010 Sarah Palin delivered a speech prior to her keynote at the Republican Tea Party fest in Nashville scheduled for this weekend. In addition to touching on government spending and the bankster bailout, Palin said the underwear bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab should have been grilled before he was read his miranda rights. “We need a commander in chief, not a professor of constitutional law,” she said, according to the Wichita Eagle. In fact, Obama was not a professor of constitutional law. He was a “senior lecturer” at the University of Chicago Law School. In academia, there is a vast difference between the two titles, not that we should expect Palin (or ...

Wars Sending U.S. Into Ruin

U.S. President Barack Obama calls the $3.8-trillion US budget he just sent to Congress a major step in restoring America’s economic health. In fact, it’s another potent fix given to a sick patient deeply addicted to the dangerous drug — debt. More empires have fallen because of reckless finances than invasion. The latest example was the Soviet Union, which spent itself into ruin by buying tanks. Washington’s deficit (the difference between spending and income from taxes) will reach a vertiginous $1.6 trillion US this year. The huge sum will be borrowed, mostly from China and Japan, to which the U.S. already owes $1.5 trillion. Debt service will cost $250 billion. To ...

Don't Give Me The Liberal Sob Story On Assisted Suicide

Quit with the sob story liberal line of reasoning. Life isn't fair. It ends for everyone, some horrifically and beyond anyone's control. (aka see Haiti) No one begrudges anyone dignity, but quite frankly, your line of reasoning that I'm inherently denying anyone anything is bullshit! Pain is a fact of life. Also a fact of life is that the eternal side is far greater than this side. For people that do not believe that, fine, their choice. But to put other peoples' pain on me/us is flat out wrong just as it is to put their financial burdens on me/us!!! It doesn't make me callous, but at times of excruciating pain in my life or in those that I've known, I ...

In The Politico this morning, Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, who apparently aspires to be the Republican presidential nominee in 2012, has a grossly ill-informed article in which he rants about the deficit without proposing any spending cuts and insisting on still more tax cuts. Like all Republicans these days, Pawlenty wants to have it every possible way: complain about the deficit while ignoring everything his party did to create it (Medicare Part D, two unfunded wars, TARP, earmarks galore, tax cuts up the wazoo, irresponsible regulatory and monetary policies that created the recession that created the deficit, etc.), illogically insisting that tax cuts are a necessary part of deficit ...

The scene is the Foxwoods Resort Casino in Connecticut . The year 2000. The congressman has $100 chips stacked high, having a grand time at the crap table. He likes to gamble and isn't afraid to show some temper when he loses. Along for the ride are his campaign manager and one of the two biggest lobbyists handing out campaign money from various Indian tribes who was also a 20 year friend of the legislator. By now we've all heard about the money J.D. Hayworth received from an Indian tribe by way of disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff, who was one of the two big boys in Indian tribe money lobbying. Pot, meet Kettle.... However, it was not J.D. Hayworth, nor Jack Abramoff at the crap ...

THE STATE OF THE UNION: A HOLLOW SPEECHBy Dick Morris And Eileen McGann 01.28.2010 When President Bill Clinton faced Congress in 1995, after first losing any hope of health-care reform and then control of Congress, he used his State of the Union speech to declare, “The era of big government is over.” President Obama’s State of the Union speech last night only served to remind us that the era of big speeches is over. As America struggles with a 10 percent unemployment rate, stubbornly refusing to go down even as other economic numbers seem to rise, the public will no longer believe in speeches — only in results. As Cuba Gooding Jr. says to Tom Cruise in “Jerry ...

Get Real, Bernanke Didn't 'Save' Our Economy By Alex Epstein - FOXNews.com The Fed is printing more money, lending it more cheaply than Alan Greenspan did, and encouraging Americans (and their government) to borrow and spend far more than they can afford. Most participants in the debate over the re-appointment of Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke agree on one thing: in the last year and a half, he has saved us from economic calamity. Senator Harry Reid’s view is typical: “An expert on the Great Depression, Chairman Bernanke helped steer us away from a second one.” The basis of this view seems to be that, a year and a half after the onset of the financial crisis, ...

The John Birch Society, whose conspiracy theories eventually became so fantastic that it faded into irrelevance, has edged back toward the mainstream – or at least the mainstream of conservative thought. It’s listed as one of 87 co-sponsors of next month’s annual Conservative Political Action Conference [CPAC] in Washington, D.C. The conference is “the year’s must-attend event for the Republican establishment,” says POLITICO.com. Speakers at the Feb. 18-20 conference include Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and Tim Pawlenty – all potential GOP presidential candidates in 2012. The fanatically anticommunist John Birch Society was founded in 1958 by Robert Welch, ...

McCain Should Retire By Claude Sandroff John McCain clings to more liberal positions than almost any other Republican in Congress. Whether encouraging economic suicide by standing against drilling in Alaska, putting the nation's security at risk by equating waterboarding with torture, demanding the shuttering of Guantanamo, joining hands with Ted Kennedy to open the floodgates of amnesty to illegal immigrants, nothing seems to satisfy his vanity more than hearing compliments from the leftist press after crossing over to the other side of the aisle. Now that the Supreme Court has declared much of his crown legislative jewel -- the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act (McCain-Feingold) -- to ...

On February 8, 1982, after lunch at the White House with all-star players from the National Hockey League, President Ronald Reagan flew to Minneapolis to give his first political fundraising speech of the year. He was greeted by masses of demonstrators bearing a banner with the words, "Welcome President Hoover." After a lackluster speech about voluntarism, Reagan gave a rambling interview to a local radio station in which he said "1941" when he meant "1981" and referred to the recession of 1970 as a "depression." It was an absent-minded performance, reflective of a presidency that was back on its heels. A year into his presidency, not quite halfway ...

Why America and China will clash

Google’s clash with China is about much more than the fate of a single, powerful firm. The company’s decision to pull out of China, unless the government there changes its policies on censorship, is a harbinger of increasingly stormy relations between the US and China. The reason that the Google case is so significant is because it suggests that the assumptions on which US policy to China have been based since the Tiananmen massacre of 1989 could be plain wrong. The US has accepted – even welcomed – China’s emergence as a giant economic power because American policymakers convinced themselves that economic opening would lead to political liberalisation in China. ...
