Are we going to let some 'terrorizers' scare and intimidate us beer lovers? Of course not! It's Friday and what does that mean..............BEER!

Okay, this isn't exactly the Truman Show, and you're not likely to see Jim Carrey, at least I hope not, but if you're lucky, I mean really lucky, you just might see Cindy Sheehan.

Otherwise, you'll have to content yourself with watching a diminishing number of Code Pinkers and other assorted left-wing nutjobs - as they mount increasingly feeble protests at the Marine Corps recruiting station in Berkeley, CA.

I snatched a copy of these transcripts from the Obama headquarters from the day after the Pensylvania primary:

OBAMA: Dave! Why the @#$% didn't we win PA?
AXELROD: Wright.
OBAMA: I thought I took care of it.
AXELROD: 'Took care of it'? I told you that little 45 minute dance with the 8 flags you did wouldn’t work. I told you that you would have to 'throw him under the bus'. But did you listen? NO!
OBAMA: But he baptised my kids... He was my mentor...
AXELROD: NO BUTS! Do you want to be president or not?
OBAMA: Well...
AXELROD: This time we do it my way. Here is how it is going to play. We put Wright on TV. He says his same old stuff – make sure he doesn't backpeddle or waffle on anything. Also, make sure he insults you. Then, next day you have to be "outraged" and throw him under the bus.
OBAMA: Will it work?
AXELROD: Sure it will. Canidates re-invent themselves after every stop in the road. Politics 101 - new 'outrages' trump old news.
OBAMA: Man... this really bites...
AXELROD: Suck it up and sink the guy. Sooner you get it done, the sooner you can get your hope back on.

Well we now know this attitude was a pile of waste. I don't need to read the whole sermon or, oooh shudder, see him in person to gain any enlightenment that would overcome his Racist and God Damn America comments.

Since Obama never saw any of these sermons (if you believe that, I've got a bridge in NY for sale) then he apparently agrees with me by his strong denunciation of Wright.

Here are a few juicy tidbits and the link.

Barack Obama angrily denounced his former pastor for "divisive and destructive" remarks on race, seeking to divorce himself from the incendiary speaker and a fury that threatens to engulf his front-running Democratic presidential campaign.

"I am outraged by the comments that were made and saddened over the spectacle that we saw yesterday," Obama told reporters at a news conference Tuesday.

"His comments were not only divisive and destructive, I believe they end up giving comfort to those who prey on hate," Obama said.

Maybe Wright has a point here.

"If Senator Obama did not say what he said, he would never get elected," Wright said. "Politicians say what they say and do what they do based on electability, based on sound bites, based on polls."

And BO's response.

"I don't think he showed much concern for me, more importantly I don't think he showed much concern for what we're trying to do in this campaign."

OK Obama and Wright, which is it?

THIS POST MIGHT AS WELL KILL TWO BIRDS WITH ONE STONE. NOW TO HILLARY.

Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.) has requested nearly $2.3 billion in federal earmarks for 2009, almost three times the largest amount received by a single senator this year.

That amount should make Robert Byrd (Exalted Cyclops, WV) turn green with envy.

Read all about it here.

Forty years ago this coming summer, swarms of anti-war protesters, proudly waving communist battle flags, fought pitched street battles with the Chicago police - all in an effort to hijack the Democrats' presidential nominating convention. They succeeded magnificently.
As a result, the GOP recaptured the White House, as ordinary Americans were repulsed by the lawlessness they saw on their TV screens.

(Fast forward to 2008)

Recreate '68, a group of old hippies that includes every one's favorite left-wing nut job, Ward Churchill, plans to hijack the Democrat convention in Denver this year. After all, what would a Democrat convention be without disaffected nutters waving communist flags, throwing condoms, and generally trashing the host city?

Yeah, that's right, they'd be Republicans.

Don't get me wrong, I don't want to see anyone get hurt...at least not seriously. But, damn, I can't help but hope that the Democrats actually do go out and make total asses of themselves - and once again throw the election over to the GOP.

If ever there was a chance of history repeating itself, this is the year. The Democrat nomination battle is far from over, and may not be settled without a floor fight at the convention.

Be still my beating heart.

The old ladies that comprise Hillary's bloc of voters can't stomach the idea of Barack Obama as their nominee, and while I can't picture them burning tires out in front of the convention center, they may withhold their votes in November.

Obama supporters, like Rev. Al Sharpton, have already declared that there will be protests in the streets if the super delegates give the nomination to Hillary Clinton. Hell, Rev Al is on the streets of NYC even as I speak, bull horn in hand, trying to incite a citywide riot against the NYPD.

For their part, Recreate '68 is just looking for one more opportunity to protest the man (not to mention light up their bongs) before their children admit them to an assisted living facility.

This promises to be great theater. Thank God for 24 hour news formats like Fox News, Cnn, and MSNBC. Every street battle live and in color. Mom and dad, eat your hearts out. Our riots are going to be way cooler than your riots.

Is this the kind of leadership we can expect from a President Obama?


Yes we can!


Good Lord! Not even Hillary has stooped to that that level - and she's a Clinton.

Notice how the audience cheers Obama for making the crude gesture, not to mention his sly smile afterwards. It's a scene reminiscent of a Jeremiah Wright sermon at Trinity United, you know...the kind of sermons that Obama denies ever hearing.

"Senate lawmakers in Florida have voted to ban the fake bull testicles that dangle from the trailer hitches of many trucks and cars throughout the state.

Republican Sen. Cary Baker, a gun shop owner from Eustis, Florida, called the adornments offensive and proposed the ban. Motorists would be fined $60 for displaying the novelty items, which are known by brand names like "Truck Nutz" and resemble the south end of a bull moving north."

No word yet on whether or not the Florida legislature will ban fake public urination.

Honestly, if we are going to start banning everything applied to cars that illustrates poor judgement on behalf of the driver, then we'll have to ban Darwin fish, 01-20-09 bumper stickers, and fag flags - leaving liberals with no way to express themselves publicly, and making it more difficult for conservatives to determine which cars to point at while laughing derisively, as we zoom past them on the interstate.
