One of Obama’s picks for Cabinet says Obama is an immigrant. Woops!

Unions
They have a blog. After some of the experiences that TUFF McFU went through with the unions, union tactics are nothing less than underhanded. They are not looking for a straight up deal, they are trying to appeal to your greed and fear in order to get you to sign up. Once you are in your are stuck. Sure, the UAW got huge pay and such for workers at the Big Three. And you are now seeing the fruits of their labor, total annihilation.
That Is Irony
Indeed:
Chapter 11, bust the union, end of troubles. What is wrong with that plan?
NY Times Funny Of The Day
This is hilarious:
LOL! Mr. Vlasic, were you even alive back then? Fuel-efficient? Yes, given the lighter, under powered vehicles they produced. High-quality vehicles? Oh please! Datsuns came in three colors rusted, horribly rusted, and rust pile. The metal would last about six months before being perforated by reduction-oxidation. High-quality they were not. But that Japanese manufacturers did not just keep making crap, they adapted and overcame.
And now they have overcome the American automotive industry. Why? Because of the two factors that GM, Ford, and Chrysler cannot control in building cars, the unions and the government. When an autoworking union forklift operator makes $103,000 a year in the US while the average wage for forklift operators across the country is $26,000, then the government backed unions are going to kill the hell out of the auto industry. You can thank the draconian laws that permit the unions to operate the way they do for the collapse of this industry.
All Right You Global Warming Wackos!
This is not the best way to sway someone in an argument, but dang it, this issue is so full of people jumping off in the wrong direction that it makes suicidal lemmings seem shy, reserved, and steadfast in comparison. SLAPSHOT sent over a link on the GROWTH OF SEA ICE. That is correct, growth, of, sea, ice. But even this article has some of the most atrocious use of the written English language, and this criticism from a man who does not consider himself highly skilled in the art. Consider:
That anomaly had been negative, indicating ice loss, for most of the current decade and reached a historic low in 2007.
That is correct, folks. The amount of sea ice apparently hit an historic low in 2007. HISTORIC! LOW! And Webster’s defines historic as:
a: famous or important in history <historic battlefields> b: having great and lasting importance <a historic occasion> c: known or established in the past <historic interest rates> d: dating from or preserved from a past time or culture <historic buildings> <historic artifacts>
So this sounds important, an HISTORIC LOW IN SEA ICE (doom, doom)! But the article itself points out that the vast history of recording the amount of global sea ice as been going on for nearly ten thousand, five hundred, ninety-two days. Indeed! The numerous bureaucrats in the sea ice amount measuring community have been collecting data on the amount of global sea ice in the seas all around the globe for nearly a whopping 30 years. For a total of thirty seasonal cycles it has been determined that the low point in thirty data samples should be considered a RECORD HISTORIC LOW. Mr. Fu has spend more time writing this article to this points than it would require him to analyze and reduce this data.
And here it the crusher in all of this. The source of all the doom and gloom about the impending man-made global wamring disaster are just computer models that keep getting it wrong:
“Not anticipated by any current climate model?” What the heck does that mean? The computer models are not anticipating correctly? I thought these models were created by the most brilliant minds! How could they have deceived us so, with their faulty computer models? What other predictions are they getting wrong? The predictions of an ever rising, Earth killing temperature increase? Of Obama’s ability to single handedly make the economy better?
What Will Not Work
Farah Was Not And Is Not Wrong About McCain
Unfortunately. Farah is right, McCain’s lack of setting the record straight on the hacks in his campaign with regards to Sarah Palin only highlights all the issues we have had with McCain all these years. RINOs will be RINOs Mr. Fu supposes.
No Taxation Without Representation
Is this idea entirely dead? So what happens when a majority of the voters do not pay taxes? Do the minority tax payers really have representation at that point?
What Hath They Wrought?
Mostly crap, misery, and destruction. METAPHOR sums up the hippy condition:
Bork as some interesting insights into the period in Slouching Towards Gomorrah. But METAPHOR continues:
This probably blows the boundaries on fair use, but METAPHOR frames this so well.
More Reading For Obama
Not that he’ll would understand….
Samuel told all the words of the LORD to the people who were asking him for a king. He said, ‘This is what the king who will reign over you will do: He will take your sons and make them serve with his chariots and horses, and they will run in front of his chariots. Some he will assign to be commanders of thousands and commanders of fifties, and others to plow his ground and reap his harvest, and still others to make weapons of war and equipment for his chariots. He will take your daughters to be perfumers and cooks and bakers. He will take the best of your fields and vineyards and olive groves and give them to his attendants. He will take a tenth of your grain and of your vintage and give it to his officials and attendants. Your menservants and maidservants and the best of your cattle and donkeys he will take for his own use. He will take a tenth of your flocks, and you yourselves will become his slaves. When that day comes, you will cry out for relief from the king you have chosen, and the LORD will not answer you in that day.
– 1 Samuel Chapter 8
Obama Should Read This
” A wise and frugal government, which shall restrain men from injuring one another, which shall leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement, and shall not take from the mouth of the laborer the bread he has earned. This is the sum of good government. …” – Thomas Jefferson
Disinformation?
GIven all the rest of the junk involved with the Obama campaign this is certainly within the realm of posibility.
Futuristic Building
Heck, this makes Mr. Fu think of the one world religion headquarters out of the Left Behind series. Neat and creepifying at the same time….
The Threat Of Watermelons
Green on the outside, Red on the inside. Watch for one in a position of power near you. Is there any clearer evidence of the wisdom of the Founding Fathers in trying to structure a system that keeps the government genie in the bottle? You’ve come a long way, baby! Next stop, dictatorship!

Is Your Child In A Public School?
Then you must read this. Do not let your child become a victim of the system.
Can Obama Do No Wrong?
In the eyes of his followers? Mr. Fu says followers, because he has not seen any clear indication that anything Obama could do would disqualify him in their eyes. Bill Clinton enjoyed this kind of assumed infallibility from the Left. It is even more apparent in Obama’s movement.
One difference of note, conservative, restorative, and generally right of center people tend to want to hold people accountable, no matter what their position. There were Republicans that wanted Nixon investigated. Republicans like Duke Cunningham were not endlessly propped up by those who in general would support them. No Leftists do not hold their own to any standard other than loyalty to The Party.
For example, the Patriot Act. Many rightists are / were concerned about this powers included in this, as were many Leftists. But if this had been proposed by Bill Clinton, and indeed, similar items were, there would be little opposition from the Left.
So what would it take for Obama to be held accountable by the Left, including the media. Certainly not his participation in torpedoing our economy. Or his outright lies. There is a danger in this lack of accountability. The Left will defend him up until the point that he starts cutting their throats, and maybe even beyond that. This cult of personality serves no one, not even Obama. Not that he, or the Left, will ever see that.
Heads Should Roll
ACORN and non-partisanship, yeah, right. Why are we funding Obama’s campaign with tax-payer dollars?
