Quotes of the day
posted at 9:30 pm on September 6, 2009 by Allahpundit
“‘As we’ve seen before, succumbing to these types of propaganda attacks from the right wing only emboldens the aggressors. This controversy will go away and they will trump up another one tomorrow,’ said David Brock, founder and chairman of Media Matters for America, a group that has taken on conservative commentators. ‘No good comes from appeasing a lunatic bully like Glenn Beck.’”
***
“If there’s one thing we’ve learned from the movies, it’s that ‘The United States of America does not negotiate with terrorists.’ Yet this White House is willing to let these psychological terrorists set the terms of the debate and negotiate from their insane positions…
I’m heartbroken over Van’s departure because it’s these little meaningless concessions that undermine people’s faith in the system. You get folks all riled up about change. You empower a man who embodies that change. And they you let him be run out of office by f*cking Glenn Beck? So Glenn Beck is running the White House now? Is that how it’s gonna be? Just tell me that I knocked on all those doors for nothing, and I can start the grieving process, but don’t pretend this will solve anything.
I can’t help but look at this spineless response and see it in contrast to the previous administration. You know how gangsta they are? DICK CHENEY IS STILL TALKING SMACK!”

The funny thing is Beck still exhibits 10 x your intelligence. Now that is not hard….I am not even a Beck fan

Four score and seven weeks ago our Berry brought forth upon this continent, new Czarhoods, conceived in tyrrany, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are as dumb as rocks.

It’s brutal.

Educate us enlightened one. Yes tell us of your great educational attainments. Reveal to us your SAT and GRE scores proving how much smarter you are than the hoi poi that post here. Put up or shut up
chemman on September 7, 2009 at 1:25 AM
I’ll keep that in mind… I’ve skipped by it a few times.
Upstater85 on September 7, 2009 at 1:25 AM
Beats me. I’ve gotten tired of it. Very female and over-the-top. I think it was sort of like Family Guy. You could see the humor in the show on any other, but they tended to overreach and veer off into preachiness.
NathanG on September 7, 2009 at 1:25 AM
Three words: Squidbillies.
Lanceman on September 7, 2009 at 1:26 AM
Easy!
It was just a drive-by troll.
Lanceman on September 7, 2009 at 1:27 AM
Anybody like King of the Hill? I love it but it has sort of jumped the shark too. Series finale is September 13th though.
NathanG on September 7, 2009 at 1:28 AM
That show makes me so sad. It had so much hilarious potential, but it turned into yet another degenerate lefty soapbox.
Sad.
TMK on September 7, 2009 at 1:28 AM
Depends…
What about That 70′s Show? Sometimes I’m in the mood… I like the mom.
Upstater85 on September 7, 2009 at 1:29 AM
Oh, and what about Always Sunny? I don’t get FX anymore. :/

Not really, but I had a friend who would bring his wife down to Mexico, and every time she would try Spanish with her Missouri accent we would laugh and say “Me llamo… Peggy Hill!”

Red is the show. Anyone my age grew up with a world full of Reds.

Red’s cool too, but the mom rocks.

Makes you feel good, doesn’t it? Kinda like being surrounded by a bunker of concrete and steel, but with a fresh-baked pie on the table.
TMK on September 7, 2009 at 1:33 AM
Dumbass.
Lanceman on September 7, 2009 at 1:33 AM
Yes, I am. I cannot wait until we fly out on Friday.
TXMomof3 on September 7, 2009 at 1:33 AM
Same here. Their schtick got old though. I went through a phase where I liked That 70s Show. Ashton Kutcher annoys me so I can’t stand to watch much of it. I just like King of the Hill, King of Queens, and Reno 911. All three are gone.
NathanG on September 7, 2009 at 1:33 AM
Wait. Who’s HR? Sounds like some Democratic talking point.
Upstater85 on September 7, 2009 at 1:33 AM
Spit my beer at that one.
You owe me a monitor and keyboard.
Limerick on September 7, 2009 at 1:34 AM
RENO!!! That’s going? Seriously?
Upstater85 on September 7, 2009 at 1:34 AM
H.R. Haldeman. Nixon’s chief of staff.
Just kidding. HoustonRight.
Hey, TxMom, keep nucklehead away from open Palins, OK?

Damn that brings back memories.

Yep. It didn’t even get a series finale!
NathanG on September 7, 2009 at 1:38 AM
Eh, well, ComCent’s going down hill anyway…
Upstater85 on September 7, 2009 at 1:39 AM
I watched that for a while last year. Or was it two years ago? Ah well, “brutal” is a good word for it. It took me a while to figure out what (aside from the high body count and the wall to wall gore) was bugging me about it. I finally came to the conclusion that anyone not in the band was little more than a water ballon filled with blood and the slightest puncture would cause them to explode with guts spraying in all directions.
Anyone who hasn’t seen it might think I’m kidding. I’m not.
“Murdering Outside the Box” from season one remains my favorite episode.
rihar on September 7, 2009 at 1:39 AM
You damn straight.
I want the Kennedy Space Center renamed the Nixon Space Center.
If they can blame him for Viet Nam, they can damn sure give him the credit for the moon landing.
Lanceman on September 7, 2009 at 1:40 AM
OK, all… gotta get my Zzz’s. Nighty night… And remember to pray to St Teddy for Bawney’s newly Van Jone’s ripped BH.
Upstater85 on September 7, 2009 at 1:43 AM
Yes it is. I’ve never cared for any other show on that network besides Reno 911. It’s too perverted and childish now.
NathanG on September 7, 2009 at 1:43 AM
I’ve been a fan of Brendon Small and Ron Lynch since Dr. Katz.
TMK on September 7, 2009 at 1:43 AM
Night, Lanceman.
TXMomof3 on September 7, 2009 at 1:44 AM
I’ll go off to bed and leave y’all with a sour bit of news…
I do hope Michelle and Allah will cover this tomorrow.
Since I can’t like CNN here I’m sure you can click as well and anyone can.
Limerick on September 7, 2009 at 1:47 AM
I’m outta here, too.
See ya.
Lanceman on September 7, 2009 at 1:50 AM
That recent face lift must have stretched Pelosi’s brain as well. What part of the easily provable allegations agains Van Jones are “vicious” and “unreasonable”?
1 That he hated Amwerica?
2 That he thought Bush and the US Government conspired with the hijackers to destroy the World Trade Center and damage the Pentagon-tqaking 3000 lives?
3 That he was (and possibly still is) a Communist?
4 That he is an ex -convict, imprisoned for aiding and abetting street rioting?
This guy was so damaging to Obama that he personally dragged Jones out into the street and shoved him under the bus!!!

MB4 on September 7, 2009 at 2:14 AM
This makes perfect sense. They need people to trust Democrats specifically, and the Government in general enough to convince people that the Government can run health care, carbon taxing, auto manufacturing, another trillion or two in new spending, and whatever else they want.
Removing a guy just because he has some crazy thoughts helps the other side. They need to keep their crazy people in positions of power to help increase trust in the Government… hmm.
If you wouldn’t trust a crazy conspiracy-spouting lunatic with control over what kind of car you can drive, or to double or triple your utilities, or to help decide your health care choices; who would you trust?
Oh… a sane person? Yeah, I guess I didn’t think of that option. But would you prefer a sane person, if that choice helped the opposition party, or would you keep the lunatic in a position of power?
We’re seeing some people here who would definitely keep the lunatic to avoid giving anything to the other side. Interesting that their party politics runs that strong, isn’t it?

Dang it Afrolip! I thought we were supposed to be calling you all “negros” again! (Or is that spelled “negroes”, in the plural? Crap, it was third grade or something, last time I had to spell it.) All these mixed messages make us honkys all confused. BTW, where did the terms “honky” and “cracker” come from, and why should I be offended by that?
C’mon, AfroLip – bring something meaningful to the conversation. We know you are an expert on race, so obviously, you can do it if you try hard enough.

In Central Florida, we called it Polk Salad as described. Hearts of Palm is from Palm trees — not the Palmetto Palm, though, in the area in which I lived. People in several swamp areas ate it often, called it Polk Salad, carved out the center of Palmettos.
Anyway, that’s what it was where I grew up, though thanks for the information/correction. People there in Central Florida called it Polk Salad, probably went back several generations when Polk County, center of CEntral Florida, was literally undeveloped swamp land and people lived on the “high areas” where the water wasn’t.
;)
Lourdes on September 7, 2009 at 3:00 AM
More (just explained, previous), people who ate what was called Polk Salad (by scooping out the center of a felled, split Palmetto Palm) didn’t regularly have access to any grocery stores, not least of which would be stocking “heart of palm”.
I’ve well enjoyed (later, other areas) Heart of Palm canned, bought in finer grocery stores but where I grew up in Central Florida was not one of those spots. The local “grocery store” had wooden floors and one of those old icecream/soda pop coolers that had to be filled regularly with ice cubes, from whence we kids would fish out a bottle or two. The butcher in the back held an open backdoor barbeque under the moss-draped live oaks where we’d be lucky to get a seat on a sack of flour or beans. And they sold just about everything everyone in town or near it wore, a lot of overhauls/overalls, boots, and there were big barrels o’ crackers by the front door…
That was “town” for years during my youth there. Most people had to make trips “to town” to get that and the rest of the time, they lived way out in various large land tracks where survival was by growing beef (I helped with several annual roundups) and/or citrus by the miles (in which groves I learned to drive a tractor).
Lourdes on September 7, 2009 at 3:06 AM
Can’t make much sense of the (7) page comments, they’ve drifted off topic, then went to bed. If we’re doing t.v. shows, I especially like “Breaking Bad”, on AMC of all channels. Dare I say, “black comedy” at its best.
betsyz on September 7, 2009 at 3:06 AM
I’m also well familiar with the Poke Plant since cattle won’t eat it – in pastures where they’re left to roam, you can easily find Poke Plants sticking up while everthing else has been munched down by the cattle. In Central Florida, anyway, in my youth.
Lourdes on September 7, 2009 at 3:09 AM
I disagree. Sunstein is NOT a popular individual among the Left who are involved in computing (nor among the Right, either). The point being that most involved in computing and related fields think Sunstein is an outrageous idiot, and that includes many on the Left.
Lourdes on September 7, 2009 at 3:12 AM
Vince, you’re an idiot.
Lourdes on September 7, 2009 at 3:14 AM
WRONG, at least to anyone not among the Left. Sunstein fails any reasonable standard as to reasonable temperament and particularly as to acceptable judicial temperament.
It’s really difficult to even understand how ANYone would deem Sunstein anything BUT the irrational, exceptionally biased individual he is. And I refer to him as “biased” based upon his irrationality more than anything. BECAUSE he’s exceptionally irrational, he is then a didactic but successful lecturer, but it does not mean he’s a reasonable thinker, nor even wants to be one.
Lourdes on September 7, 2009 at 3:34 AM
“Lourdes on September 7, 2009 at 3:34 AM”
query — would zero fight for sunstein, or would he put him under the bus as quickly as van if it became necessary?
Buckaroo on September 7, 2009 at 3:45 AM
I just don’t know; can’t begin to guess, either. There is something really dark about Sunstein, but then, so is there about all of Obama’s Czars, not a one of them doesn’t fill some awful description of a bad messenger.
Sunstein, though, he is particularly fascist and seems to think it’s “fun”.
Lourdes on September 7, 2009 at 4:03 AM
@ Buckaroo: I put Sunstein and Holden (Science Czar) as also Rahm Emanuel’s brother (whathisname) in a little Crazy Boat all of their own. Those three make Van Jones look comedic by comparison of extremes and Van Jones is quite the extremist.
Lourdes on September 7, 2009 at 4:04 AM
correction: Holdren, Science Czar ^^.
Lourdes on September 7, 2009 at 4:06 AM

I never knew it was HA that blocked CNN links. Why? Another way around it is to type the link but use the words “dot com” instead of .com. Then the user fixes it when he copies the link into his browser.
JiangxiDad on September 7, 2009 at 6:32 AM
I was listening to Fox and Friends earlier and they had that liberal Ratner lady on there, her first name escapes me right now…and she was accusing the right of the being the thought police.
Listen to these people..they mainstreamed this nonsense for so long that they forgot how crazy their crap sounds to average Americans who actually have to pay the bills. Thought police my ass.
Meanwhile Charles Johnson over at LittleGreenfootballs, is taking on the Tea Party people and calling them all Trutheres..along with Judge Napalitono and God knows who else.
I don’t doubt that there are some Paulbots out there among the demonstrators, there are also Democrats, Independents, libertarians, Republicans…all sorts of people and none of them are Czars in the White House.
Van Jones needed to go.

Jim Treacher on September 7, 2009 at 7:36 AM
I woke up to grab my Labor Day issue of the Cincinnati Enquirer. I find that the AFL-CIO is having a big picnic at a second-rate amusement park in the area (Coney Island). Apparently, Obama is coming to Cincinnati to announce Ron Bloom as his “manufacturing policy czar.”
One consolation: so far, it’s a dreary, rainy morning, though I’m not sure about the forecast.
BuckeyeSam on September 7, 2009 at 7:44 AM
You can expect more resistance from Obama when Beck shines the light of day on Obama’s other Czars. Ir wasn’t the fact Jones is a commie or a racist that brought him down. It was the fact he’s a Truther. Once that fact came out Jones was finished.
Obama can abide commies and racists in the White House but he can’t abide Truthers. It’s not that he has a problem with Truthers per se. It’s just that if it’s okay for him to legitimize a Truther, then it’s okay for his political opponents to legitimize a so-called birther. (Most so-called birthers are Constitutionalists who’ve been maliciously maligned for not accepting, at face value, Obama’s assurances that he was born in Hawaii in the face of his refusal to produce his birth certificate.)
This is similar to the soldiers orders being revoked once he challenged Obama’s eligibility.
Basilsbest on September 7, 2009 at 7:50 AM
Reno 911! decided that suicide was painless….letting Clemmy, Garcia, and Kimball go was horrid and a case of “hey buddy need a job” for the senior cast for their buddies from The State.

I woke up this beautiful morning, sunny & 59. Met my daughter who just bought her first house and lives 4 blocks away. We do our daily walk/run. Said hello toour new friend the coyote in the park by the ball diamonds playing (laying)at 3rd base. A new Obama Commie out of the White House. MSM looked like idiots yesterday. Liberals are pissed.
Yup tater, it’s gonna be a great day!
Jeff from WI on September 7, 2009 at 8:16 AM
I think reality has passed by Ogabe being able to look into a camera and say, “uh I need this man he is a down with the uh class struggle” and getting a pass….
His “nationalize the airwaves and destroy free speech czar” is next as far as I am concerned.
sven10077 on September 7, 2009 at 8:17 AM
Yep, gonna be a great day, but at my age every day above ground is good :-) Just curious, do you or your daughter have a pet dog or cat?
Oldnuke on September 7, 2009 at 8:40 AM
From now on, I am referring to myself as a “Conservative magnificent disrupter.” I might just put it on my tombstone. This video needs to go viral – not only does it show what a tosspot Nance is, it shows they all knew who this guy was and what he was doing all along.
The fact that they readily recognize our power to bowl over these czars is gold in our hands. Let’s see who Beck and Limbaugh go after next and rally behind them. Lloyd?
And whoever keeps posting those lists of the czars – THANK YOU!
gopmom on September 7, 2009 at 8:47 AM
The czar list looks like the flavors at Baskin-Robbins…..when the heat is turned on, they start to melt.

Nope, had to put our old lab down last fall. We’re each planning on getting new lab pups.
Jeff from WI on September 7, 2009 at 8:49 AM
Oh, sorry about your lab but it’s the way of things. I call it the final kindness. Doesn’t make it any better though. If you get new puppies just remember that coyote is not your friend. Where in Wisconsin are you?
Oldnuke on September 7, 2009 at 8:54 AM
I can tell you are a lib by this. You don’t get what freedom of speech means.
Let me ‘splain it for you Lucy.
1. It has to do with the government -they are not to be able to stop your freedom of speech.. you know.. put you in jail ect.
2. It doesn’t mean that you don’t face consequences for your use of your freedom: ie you get banned from what is essentially a PRIVATE enterprise. Or yelling “fire” in a theater etc.
3. Go talk to the DU underground and the KOS kids about what you are saying here. You see all you have to say in those web sites is “I am conservative” and they boot you. Hypocrisy is thine. I bet you are on the “shut Glenn Beck, Anne Coulter, Michelle Malkin, Rush limbaugh” committee.

Craziness: Craziness is, when I was going through grade school, a time when Democrats like LBJ were pushing Vietnam to try and DEFEAT the Communists, yet within my lifetime we ELECT a Communist who brings in other Communists, into the White House.
Electing Obama means the soldiers who died in Vietnam, died for NOTHING.
Jeff from WI on September 7, 2009 at 9:17 AM
OK, you knocked on all those doors for nothing and you can start grieving. Now, go away and leave the country for the adults to run. BTW, take MMoore with you.

Obama said his vetting process book of rules may be the most extensive — some say invasive — application ever.
Prove it, Obama.
Why didn`t you make Van Jones meet your rules in your vetting process? Release all the documents in Van Jones (and others) vetting process for positions in your administration.
