“U.S. debt shot up $239 billion on Tuesday — the largest one-day bump in history — as the government flexed the new borrowing room it earned in this week’s debt-limit increase deal.
The debt subject to the statutory limit shot way past the old cap of $14.294 trillion to hit $14.532 trillion on Tuesday, according to the latest the Treasury Department figures, which are released on the next business day.” – Washington Times
No wonder a new poll indicates only 22% of Americans approve of the “Deal”.
Matt Damon grew up in what we in Boston and elsewhere like to call “The People’s Republic of Cambridge”, you know, with places like Harvard, the Muslim Brotherhood’s foothold in our education system, whoops, I mean indoctrination centers. With all that learning going on there, not much stuck to his puny brain.
“Actor Matt Damon is a walking, talking public service reminder to immunize your children early and often against La-La-Land disease.” – Malkin
Michelle Malkin wrote a terrific piece about an interview with him featured in this video:
If stupidity was electricity, Joe Biden would be a nuclear power plant
Biden calls Tea Party “Terrorists” – h/t: POLITICO
“Vice President Joe Biden joined House Democrats in lashing tea party Republicans Monday, accusing them of having “acted like terrorists” in the fight over raising the nation’s debt limit, according to several sources in the room.”
“The truth is that frightening rhetoric about default and full faith and credit of the United States is being carelessly thrown around to ram through a bigger budget than ever, in spite of stagnant revenues. If your family’s income did not change year over year, would it be wise financial management to accelerate spending so you would feel richer?
That is what our government is doing, with one side merely suggesting a different list of purchases than the other. – Ron Paul
A terrorist the Left can love has burst onto the stage. You would have think the Left and the mainstream media would have learned their lesson from nut job Dupnik, the Arizona shooter, that some people are just crackpots; that mental illness drives them, not right-wing “Vitriol”.
The "perfect" Christian Terrorist. And he is soooo white!
The left has been searching for a white, non-Muslim terrorist for a long time, after all, it has been a very long time since Oklahoma City and the Left needs another go-to-white-terrorist to point to and Breivik is ohhh so white and European looking. Just the thing to hold up in response to anyone who attempts to link Muslims with terror.
There are a lot of folks who are saying Breivik is Christian and right-wing, my guess is he is too sick to know what he is. His rambling “manifesto” has many claims and is contradictory. The Left would have us believe that there are no criminals, no plain nut cases in our world, only folks like Rush Limbaugh urging people to pick up a machine gun and mow down some kids.
Obama is about to set the Middle East ablaze, on purpose. Trouble is, now it involves atomic weapons, he is gambling with our lives as well.
“Obama has now reversed sixty years of American and Western efforts to reverse rogue nuclear proliferation. The horse of Armageddon is out of the barn.” -James Lewis
If you are interested at all in what’s happening in the world and how we are headed for a showdown in the Middle East and who’s responsible, James Lewis’ article “Obama’s Final Solution” nails it.
It is one of the most concise but complete overview of the situation, with direct, straight talk.
But now, get ready for real fireworks. Who will they blame? Israel of course. If you thought as I did, that Obama simply had his head in the sand, or was just another lib, now we know why he is doing all this: he is doing it on purpose.
On this Independence Day, 2011 I have scoured the Web and found the best postings for your holiday reading:

I wish I could report that the state of current events is good, or at least improving, but as you will see, things are getting worse. Much worse.
In my opinion the most serious threat to our way of life are the attempts to change our Constitution to a “progressive” one by 2020. This is being undertaken in part, by something called the “American Constitution Society”.
The “ACS”, a group meant to counter the work of the Federalist Society, has been at the forefront of the push for a more conservative judiciary since its launch in 1982.
Coming to a town near you: 2011 Arab Festival celebrates the “Religion of Peace” and demonstrates the inclusiveness and acceptance of other religions. Isn’t that what “Allahu akbar” means?
In the summer of 1776 a few great men met to discuss a radical idea; they had such faith in its righteousness that they pledged all they owned, their sacred Honor and in fact their very lives in support of this new idea. We now rely completely on this idea for, in essence, it has given us all we have now as well as what our fathers and families have reaped over the years.
Now, this idea, an idea that eventually created a system who’s success is unparalleled in human existence, is under grave attack, by those who wish to usher in the American “Post Independence Era”.
“Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin condemns any people.” Proverbs 14:34
Graphic: Political Cowardice
The idea our founders discussed in Constitution Hall that warm summer resulted in a document so profound and awesome the events it set into motion have been unequaled in over two centuries.
In my opinion, the essence of that document was the idea that man had specific rights that were part of Natural Law, and that these rights were given not by kings or any man, but by God himself and that no man or nation, however powerful, could usurp or remove these rights.
These rights are mentioned in the famous preamble that outlines the principles of the Declaration of Independence:
As I predicted, Egypt is devolving into a cesspool of radical Islam terror groups under the umbrella of the Muslim Brotherhood. Sorry CNN, it was not a spontaneous democracy movement, and the Main Stream Media is still not telling the truth, they are in Islamic Terror Denial.
The Mainstream Media in Islamic Terror Denail - Graphic by Political Cowardice
Most news media organizations have been sugar-coating the truth in the Middle East for decades, no wonder we have generations of folks who blame always Israel for everything and don’t understand the threat of Islam. Enter now the “alliterative euphemism”, thank you Mainstream Media.
Bloodthirsty terrorists are described as “militants”, mobs raping women, shouting “death to Jews” and burning churches are called “protesters” and, of course, Republicans are called “extremists”.
Perhaps the Muslims who raped Lara Logan while chanting “Kill the Jew!” were just overcome with “emotional exuberance”, and it was really a “secular celebration”.
From the “I told you so” file: As Savage predicted: “Hold on, something is not quite right with this picture.” It turns out the “lone voice” may have been right all along.
I agree that Dominque Strauss-Kahn, the former head of the International Monetary Fund is a scumbag, politically and probably personally as well.
However, in terms of the recent charges against him, the worst thing he may be guilty of is not choosing the right escort agency.
How the militant homosexual movement imposed their will on the citizens of New York and intimidated the New York State legislators resulting in one of the biggest political sell-outs in American history.
IN YOUR FACE Empire State Buiding is lit in rainbow colors, the colors of the gay rights movement on the night the bill past
From Mass Resistance:
“How “gay marriage” passed in Republican-controlled NY Senate: Pressure, payoffs, political cowardice, selling out of principles.: It was arguably the biggest sell-out in modern American political history. A group of “pro-family” Republican Senators who already had the power to stop “gay marriage” in New York decided to take the easy route, and simply stepped back and gave in to their opponents.
This is a story about treachery and cowardice in the face of pressure when the most important vote in decades was taking place.
Late Friday night, in its last action of the 2011 legislative session, the Republican-controlled New York State Senate passed Gov. Cuomo’s “gay marriage” bill 33-29. Within hours it was signed by the Governor. New Yorkers will now be legally forced to recognize the bizarre concept of men marrying other men.”
It’s no longer a “rights” movement anymore, Liberals and their so-called victim groups such as militant feminists, homosexuals and environmentalists along with the anti-Christians have moved from oppressed and merely seeking equality, to wanting complete domination.

Ever since the success of the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960′s every new “cause” has sought to attach itself in some way to that noble effort. In the struggle over civil rights, we had a class of victims and oppressors, a David and a Goliath, a clear struggle, between good and evil.
Now, after we have won in the cause of civil rights, the biggest challenge faced by the left, now mostly made up of progressives and liberal activist groups, is the need to create “victims” where few or none exist.
“Lesson to America: The Muslim Brotherhood has successfully infiltrated the LA County Police Department who are now advocating the Brotherhood’s radical agenda thus “sabotaging its miserable house by their own hands.” -Video
"Islam will dominate the world"
Readers of this blog and those that follow the War on Terror know that captured documents in Europe revealed the Muslim Brotherhood’s 100 year plan for the takeover of the U.S. particularly from within by stealth and sabotage.
What’s truly incredible is that the deputy chief of the LAPD, who certainly should be on the side of our Country, would be so totally ill-informed or suicidal.
You have to go back in time to find some nuggets of the big screen, not like today’s many Politically Cowardly films.
ATTICUS FINCH (Gregory Peck) “To Kill a Mockingbird” (1962) The ultimate good dad.
With all the negative publicity Dad is getting recently, I thought I’d provide something positive for this weekend.
Thanks to the Patriot Ledger and GateHouse News Service here is a list of films you may want to check out on Netfilx. My favorite is To Kill a Mokingbird (1962).
ATTICUS FINCH (Gregory Peck) “To Kill a Mockingbird” (1962) The ultimate good dad, Finch teaches his two motherless children important life lessons as he defends a black man accused of raping a white woman in 1930s Alabama. Peck won an Oscar for demonstrating how innate human decency wins even in the face of defeat.
As predicted, King hearings demonstrate the political cowardice in liberal politicians; all hail “Queen Sheila”
"Queen Sheila" Jackson Lee, Big Mouth Political Coward, Liberal Democrat insults America
Round two of U.S. Representative Peter King’ s congressional hearings on “Prislam”, the indoctrination of prisoners by radical Muslims, produced the usual babble of trite liberal talking points we repeatedly hear anytime this subject is raised.
Whenever we have a terrorist attack by a Muslim, the liberals usually roll out their go-to white male non-Muslim criminal Timothy McVeigh and try to equate a couple of white criminals with global jihad.
Well, Queen Sheila, we’re not buying it.
Political Coward Representative Shela Jackson Lee, a Democrat from Texas, know as “Queen Shela” for her abusive treatment of her staff and her “big mouth” didn’t disappoint her far-left base. Trying to create a so-called “moral equivalence” between Muslim Terrorists and “Christian Militants” and suggesting the threat to our country from both groups is the same.
It’s not only the elementary and high school students that are ignorant of history, why does it seem the Liberals who whine so much are so ignorant of history?
This is what I referred to in my earlier post as the “Conventional Ignorance”.
The video says it all, I’ll shut up now. To watch the video click on the Read more below:
Will Obama’s speech this Father’s Day promote the lie or tell the truth about fathers?
20 Million children in America are growing up fatherless, Obama continues to place the blame not on those responsible, but on fathers.
Growing up fatherless tends to lead to flawed development and psychological issues, namely the narcissistic personality disorder so obvious in our president who himself, grew up fatherless. Fatherless children leading other fatherless children.
Swell.
Obama has it backwards, fathers don’t abandon their children and families it is really the other way around, we as a society have abandoned fathers, in essence, the ‘family’ has abandoned fathers.
Previously, on Father’s day, Obama made a speech in a Chicago church urging black fathers to be more engaged in raising their children. Read full text of Obama’s Father’s Day Speech.
As usual we find the truth to be the opposite of what Obama says as well as the “conventional wisdom” or what I call the “conventional ignorance”.
The movie Falling Down (1993) staring Michael Douglas as Bill Foster, a divorced, laid-off defense worker struggling just to get to his young daughter's birthday party and bring her a birthday gift, in the so "Politically Correct" Los Angeles, California. Falling Down is the quintessential expose' and satire of Political Correctness and Feminism run amok in our nation.
I attempt, in some way, to personify Foster as "Mike Truman" and speak for many of the victims of the absurd political correctness we endure constantly.
