Sarah Palin, from Joke to Juggernaut!

How the political worm has turned, as in the space of 2 years ,Sarah Palin has went from national joke to political juggernaut!  From the poster child for political inepetitude to the face of the republican party. How did this happen?Firstly Sarah has prvoen herself a lot more politically savvy than people gave her credit for, she took the ball that that was handed to her, and she has ran with it admirably! And ,as she spoke in Iowa last evening, it is clear that she is the one to beat in 2012. Who would have thunk it 2 years ago, but it looks like Sarah Palin, political force and kingmaker in the republican party, is having the last laugh on all her critics!

As far as the election goes, it is clear that thsi election will be a refferendum on America.With the forces of extremisim taking center stage. And I for one, find it hilarious how hard the republicans are now fighting to minimize the damage that these extremists are inflciting on their party and the public image of same. As the adage goes, when you lie down with dogs---

Chaos ,or would you like some sugar with that tea?

It seems that the tea party has brought the true nature of Chaos to the republican party. Choas, knows no party, has no allegience. Chaos only breeds chaos.Chaos feeds upon itself, and when you have the lLikes of Michelle Malkin, who worshipped at the altar of Karl Rove for all 8 years of the Bush administration rebuking her Lord in the manner in which she did on National TV last evening. You can see what sort  havoc that the chaos which is the tea party is reaping with the republican establishment! Nationwide, the question facing the republican establishment is What is happening? And the answer quite simply is :CHAOS! And who will bring order to this chaos come Nov? Looks  more and more like the Democrats! Michelle Malkin attacking Karl Rove?Whats next, Rush Limbaugh endorsing Obama?

Primary potporurri

Last evening said a lot about the political situation in America. For one thing, the hype was dispelled by the reality and fact that the incumbents being thrown out in America are republicans not democrats. Last night also said that both the Tea party, and Sarah Palin, are becoming a force to reckon with in the REPUBLICAN hirearchy! Last night was also a powerful statement about Political love and loyalty as Rep Charles Rangel ,despite being under a cloud of ethics charges, won his primary challege with nearly 50 percent of the vote!  Note to those of you out there in Politico land who think you know, such status and loyalty can only be earned. People standing with  you thru thick & thin is a beautiful thing! Only In NY! In the space of 24 Hours the republicans have went from juggernaut to once again teetering on the brink of marginalization, and it is something of their own making. Simply put, the extremism of the tea party wont sell across the Board, there will be no Scott Brown miracles , No  mishandled camapigns. The Democrats stand poised and ready to score a significant victory in 2010 and the republicans are faced with the one thing that they have struggled against for the last two years  becoming crucial to their very political existance:CHANGE! Talk about supreme irony! The Tea party was created in resistance to the change promised in 2008 and it may be the force that creates change in the republican party and America in 2010!

Common Sense Cuts reality over rhetoric

A huge political victory was scored by President Obama over the weekend, when House Minority Leader Boehner was forced to admit that he would have no choice but to accept the common sense policy advocated by the president regarding the Bush tax cuts.For it was radically clear to him that even the most partisan of arguments could not stand in the face of common sense, plain and simple! And the realization that this was something that could not be spun negatively or misrepresented in the media by the republicans or the Tea parties! And this victory of reality over rhetoric is one of  what hopefully will be a series of victories lead By the president as he, and the democrats push forward in the Next 60 days!

Reality over rhetoric!( A tack first advanced at this blog) The keys to victory for the democrats in 2010 and the key to the marginaliozation of the party of NO  in 2010!

As the tea party continues to assert itself, it is clear that the republicans have created their very own little monster in this out of control movement! And as they continue to unseat republican after republican, you have to wonder, given a positive result for the tea party in Nov, will Sarah Palin be a tea party candidate for president instead of A republican standard bearer? Curiouser & curiouser!

Obama,turning the political tide, bible burning idiots, and 9/11/10

Can Obama turn the tide, can he break the back of the republican party by denyiung it the victory it so desparately needs in Nov.? It's very possible, but its is going to take a massive campaign level effort by the president to do it. The issues are there to stand upon, and there are many points that can be driven home, but this will take a campaign level push, day in and day out to make victory a reality. I guess it all comes down to how bad does President Obama want to push his legislative agenda and see it succeed? The ball is in his court and ,simply put, the future of his administration and democratic control is now in his hands!
Speaking of points to be driven home, it is the pointed headedness of these Bible burning Idiots in Fla, these mornonic mullahs of misguided madness that remind us all of just why we need to stand against fanaticism and out of control rhetoric in America! Sarah Palin came out against this plan as should all conservatives of merit in America, because this is the idiodacy that the rhetoric of the Sean Hannitys, the Glenn Becks, the Laura Ingrams, the Michelle Malkins, and the Rush Limbaughs of the world, and Fox news have produced! You cant preach morality from a immoral foundation! A pot can't call a kettle black! I call upon all media in America to ignore this action if it is taken, because that will send a stronger message and serve a better purpose than the telvising this burning could ever acheive. Responsible journalism. I know its hard ,but Have a little deceny please!
 And lastly:
‎9 years ago , in the greatest city in the world, the forces of hatred ,fananticism, and intolerance struck a blow the likes of which had never been seen on american shores. It was on that day that everything changed for americans and the world. It was on that day that Fear took a firm grasp.That day was 9/11/01. A day when hate felled the greatest of Mans achievements , his reach to the sky, the World Trade Center! I remember how it was pre 9/11, how carefree the world was, before fear and terror became the watchwords for a generation, and  now ,9 years later, as the world continues to writhe in the grasp of fanaticism, terror, and hate and fear mongering , I wonder :Will we ever return to those care free days of pre 9/11/01/? I for one truly hope so, but we must never forget that on that day THOUSANDS of lives were lost! Innocent lives to a cowards blow. Lives that shared only one commonality: they were in America! These were white lives, black lives spanish lives indian lives, asian lives! These were chrisitian lives, hindu lives ,buddist lives, even islamic lives! All different but with one commonality :They were lost in America! And that we must never forget to honor: that commonality! Because as americans we all lost a piece of ourselves on that day, we all became a little less safe, a little less free, a little less happy, a little less american. On 9/11/01 a piece of America was taken from us, but as we commemorate that sad date on 9/11/10 let us, by standing united in commonality, the commonality of being Americans, speak loudly to all thsoe who would still wish us ill in those dark and primitive corners of the world that you will never take anything else away from us again! and never forget 9/11/01 and what we lost that day!

Fighting fire with fire!

Yesterday the deafening silence that has been the democratic response to the media onslaught and siege waged upon them by the Republicans/Tea parties was broken in a big way as President Obama got very loud and very in your face with the republicans and their policies. And to be frank, that is what has been missing both from the Democrats and in the media, the other side of the story. While the Dems dont enjoy the luxury of a propaganda wing(Fox news) They still should have long ago made some kind of effort to get their side of the story out for public consumption.But I guess if they had done so they wouldnt be the Dems Ive known and watched snatch defeat from the Jaws of victory so many times in the past! But what the repsident did yesterday was a telling point and it will be interesting to see if he presses those points in the next sixty days, for indeed he must! Because this is his agenda, his political future at stake! A massive republican victory in Nov means in all likelihood that he may be a one term president, or a very ineffective 2 termer. They say those who dont learn from the mistakes of the past are destined to repeat them in the future. And its clear that the dems have yet to learn that the republicans are single minded when it comes to political power,   that they plan  and strategize from day one and clearly their strategizing is paying off once again! Like them or not, they are a well oiled political machine and if the dems, excuse my cantonese dont get their sh-t together, Both they & Americaa re going to once more be in the dog house! So I was very heartened to see Obama finally beginning to fight fire with fire here.  I was hopeful to see him calling a spade a spade as it pertained to republican policies and republican agendas. Because the only way this election will be won is thru confrontation, with the dems voice getting as loud as the republicans has been, the only way this election will be won is with the dems calling out the republicans as much as they have been calling out the dems on the issues, the only way this election will be won, and the legislative future secured is for the Democrats to fight fire with fire! So to President Obama for the Next 60 days its time to burn baby burn! And let your fire light the way for the Democrats!

And speaking of fire, once against the ugliness and stupidity of racism raises its head in america as some idiot preacher decided he's going to burn islamic bibles for 9/11. Genius move, just what the world needs more hate & violence spread in the name of "God" Nice to know that we are, in america, so ready to sink to the depths of hate that those who wrought 9/11/01  were so ready and willing to do! Youre not calling attention to radical islam, only american hate and racism! We must never forget 9/11/01 but commemorating it with hatred and ignorance is a insult to all those who died, and to all that we stand for and fight for in America! 9/11/01 was about hate, blind and unreasoning. Ring a bell Islamic bible burners?

P.O.L.I.T.I.C.S.

P. Sarah Palin is definately going to be in the running for the Republican nomination for president, and come 2012 she may even be big enough to run independently If the republicans establishment gives her too much of a hard time. But she must wean herself away from the fringe and the loonys that Fox continues to link her to IE:Glenn Beck If she is to truly make a run for the white house!
O. Obama(thats the president not the first lady) made a great speech(as he allways does) regarding the end of the iraqi war. Simply put, he did what he was elected to do, put us back on the right track ,and with the ending of the iraq war he did just that. And no amount of political spin or hype can change that fact! Well done Mr. president.
L. Labor. as we enter into this labor day weekend, President Obama and indeed all of washington DC's next task, the real war that must be fought, is to create the investment of capital by american corporations into america! We need jobs and in order to get them we need MONEY!!! A new stimulus in time for the Holiday season should be fast tracked, but due to politics it clearly wont be and that is a shame. But with more and more people suffering ,its time for partisan politics to take a back seat to united action on Labor! Labor meaning Jobs for Americans.As this is the lead issue, so must the president and the Democrats take the lead on it!
I. Information: Something which the public is clearly lacking as they ,like rabble, are bing roused byu the very Bums they just threw out, to put them back into power. Go figure!

T. Triumph Let us all hope for the ultimate trimuph in global diplomacy as the palestinians and Israeli's are once again at the peace table. Many have tried, but the ultimate trimuph, peace in our lifetime, has allways been just out of reach. Perhaps finally we can get what is indeed long overdue, two states living in peace side by side!
I. Illumination. As we prepare to commemorate all those lives lost on 9/11/01 it wwill also be time to once again shine the light of freedom worldwide! A light that all of us must remember. There is a reason why so many died and why the towers came down, and it wasnt Islam! It was because of freedom, freedom the like of which has never been seen and is like nowhere else on this planet! American freedom! A light brighter than allah, a light brighter than islam, a light that will never die out!
C. Community, the world community. Do not forget the people in pakistan. Give what U can, and do what U can. We are our brothers keeper and I hope that the USA is at the forefront(as it allways is) in this humanitarian effort.
S. Support, speak out and stand up! Remember, in less than 2 months the future will be decided for us here in America and for the world! This is a milestone election coming up! Too important to be decided by media hype , partisan hyperbole, and exploited ignorance! So support change, stand up agaisnt ignorance ,racism, and hate! And speak out and spread the word about Nov 2010! Because its about the future your future!

Enjoy the Holiday weekend!
