The Almost Great GOP Campaign Ad Posted: 10 Jan 2012 06:10 PM PST I agree with Nice Deb. This GOP campaign video is good, but not quite there. What’s missing? Let’s go back to Nice Deb’s post for the answer. But that barely scrapes the surface of how divisive this President has been. The "hope and change" candidate who was sold as having "a first class temperament", has proven to be a petty, thin skinned, whiny, vindictive dictator. He started off his Presidency by telling Republicans "not to do a lot of talking", to "get out of the way", or "grab a broom" and help him clean up the mess they made. He mocked opponents of Obamacare, during his victory lap after its passage. He told Republicans to "get in the back seat", and  accused them a sipping slurpies while he did the hard work of getting "the car out of the ditch" not once, but dozens of times.. As the car sunk further and further into the ditch, he continued to blame Bush, and the "do nothing congress" even though Democrats had total control for two full years and every damn thing they did made things worse. And that barely touches on the problems we’ve had with The Obamessiah. His pointed disregard for the Constitution will cause us trouble for years after he’s gone. Presidents love to invoke the precedents set by Presidents past and the shenanigans our current Chief Executive have pulled will fuel many a battle over executive power that we simply should have have to face. Barack Obama wanted to leave his mark on history and so he will, and not in any good ways at all. The GOP chould have hit him on the truly horrid things he’s done — the things that have left scars on our nation that will take many years to heal, if they heal at all. That they didn’t leads me to believe they’ll run a fairly typical campaign, like they did against Barack Obama four years ago, with similar results.

Today, Let Us Celebrate Ten Years of Cocktail-Fueled Punditry Posted: 10 Jan 2012 05:03 PM PST Stephen Green, who ought to own the title of Hardest Working Man on the Internet, is one of my favorite people in the entire explored universe. Yes, I know that leaves some waggle room that we may one day discover a planet populated with buxom redheads who like action movies, cartoons, and role-playing games at which point he will move down on the list to one minus the number of inhabitants on that wonderful planet. And it’d take some time for me to move him down on the list as my exploration of Planet Wonderful would take a few years, at the very least and I might be out of contact during that time, what with all the fact-finding I’ve be compelled to do purely in the interests of science. I mean, wouldn’t our humble planet require an exhaustive survey of a world where geeky, lovely redheads abound? I certainly think so and would be willing to devote many years to the delivery of that knowledge to the rest of you. Wait…where was I? Oh, yes. Stephen Green. His blog, VodkaPundit, turned ten years old today. That makes him one of the Great Veterans of the Blogosphere. He has built what began in his bedroom into a great success that includes not only his blog, but also a number of video shows for PJ Media and many celebrity appearances. He deserves every minute of his success and, if there is any justice left in the world, should have a great many more (like, say, a regular radio show which would be an immediate smash hit and may require a geeky sidekick with podcasting chops, not that I know such a person…). Go on over and leave him a good word or two!
