NUKES IN FOUR YEARS
While we were all fussing over the Super Tuesday primary yesterday, an
announcement came out of Israel. It seems that the Israeli spy agency feels
that Iran will develop a nuclear weapon within three years.
Three years. Hmmmm. Let's see. That would mean that Iran might possibly
have nukes during the term of the president we're going to elect this year. So
.. .who would you want in the White House dealing with this problem? Obama? Oh
yeah. He'll go talk to them. Hillary? Sure, let me know how that works out
for you ... or us, I should say.
A Republican? Right! And that means any Republican over MoveOn Democrats.

ANALYSIS 11-NOON ET
Today, in addition to his regular information
overload spot with Neal, Washington Correspondent Jamie Dupree with
be on for a full hour discussing the primary results and taking your
calls. |
HUCKABEE
First ... you're going to hear that Huckabee won those Southern states because
of evangelical Christians. That's the easiest explanation for the media, so
that is the one they will run with. Fact is that Romney, McCain and Huckabee
pretty much split the evangelical vote evenly in Georgia. Perhaps there was
some other factor working for Huckabee in this election.
Listening to CNN this morning I must have heard the words "conservative talk
radio hosts" used a dozen times. The general line was that even though all of
these conservative talk radio hosts "hate" John McCain, and were pushing their
listeners to vote for Mitt Romney, it didn't seem to do any good. Mike Huckabee
still won the primaries in the South .. in Georgia and Alabama.
Funny ... Here I thought I was actually pushing Huckabee yesterday. Then
again, I'm not a conservative, I'm a libertarian. Besides ... when the media
talks about "conservative talk radio hosts" the list is two deep.
Back to this "hate" thing for a moment. They're not going to change their
tactics, so I just want to remind you that every time you hear someone in the
media say that so-and-so "hates" someone, what they're really saying is that
so-and-so actually "disagrees" with the other party. "Hate" has become a
synonym for "disagrees with."
... AND THE FAIRTAX
As I said above, the media is reporting that Huckabee won the South because
of those pesky evangelical Christians. That's somewhat hard to support
considering the fact that Romney, McCain and Huckabee pretty much split that
vote, at least in Georgia.
Could Huckabee's support of the FairTax be a reason here? While that may be
so, you sure aren't going to see the media report it that way ... not if they have
something else, like evangelicals, to put the blame. Remember – the FairTax
would bring a massive transfer of power from the government to the people.
Transferring power from government to the people is a concept that you won't
find many liberals supporting; and if liberals don't support the idea, you
surely won't find the mainstream media supporting it. The FairTax is a
revolution that cannot depend on media support ... or recognition, for that
matter.
DID YOU NOTICE ...
That Hillary and Barack aren't taking shots at each other so much these
days? Are we seeing a set-up for a vice presidential bid here?
OBAMA?
OK .. so he has charisma .. and Oprah. When is someone going to address the
affinity Barack Obama showed for Marxist groups and professors during his
college years? Or .. would that be racist? Besides .. rhetoric aside, what has
this man EVER accomplished?
OH .. AND THEN THERE'S RON PAUL
Hey! What about Ron Paul? He really tore them up yesterday, didn't he?
Here we have the one candidate who has shown above all others that he wouldn't
take the actions necessary to defend this country. Hey .. he couldn't get more
than 3% of the vote in Georgia. It's about time for you Ron Paul folks to fade
into the woodwork, don't you think?
Oh, right. Almost forgot. It's all the media's fault. The media just
wouldn't give Ron Paul the coverage he deserves. The newest tact being used
against me is that my failure to promote Ron Paul is due to corporate
influences. I'm supposedly getting marching orders from some people far up the
corporate ladder ordering me not to discuss Ron Paul ... to ignore him. Fine.
Whatever explanation works for you works for me.
Fact is .. there is no way in hell I'm going to support or vote for a
candidate who wants to cut and run in the war against Islamic fascism. Period.
End of story.
GAWKING IN AMAZEMENT
Driving away from the studios yesterday I tool a back route to avoid
traffic. On one busy street corner I noticed a group of women waving Hillary
signs. Sorry ... but all I could do was stare at these women in absolute
amazement. Who are these people? Who are these women that would actually vote
for this dishonest and mean woman for president? Do these women all want to
surrender the responsibilities for their lives to government? Do they really
fear freedom that much? Do they really admire a woman who withstood the serial
infidelities of her husband in order to preserve her position of power? Do they
admire liars? Are they fans of sham marriages? Are their marriages shams
also? Or ... is it possible they just don't have a clue what the hell they are
working for?
All I can do is just drive by and stare .. stare in absolute amazement.
POLLING PLACE CURIOSITY
I vote at the Northside High School in Atlanta. The voting takes place in
what looks like a cafeteria or auditorium of some sort. The line was very
short, so I didn't have a lot of time to look around, but I did notice a bunch
of flags hanging from the ceiling of this room in two concentric ovals. Now it
looked to me as if there were two ... maybe three sizes of flags hanging from the
ceiling. Being the patriotic and proud American that I am, I started looking
for the American flag. Surely it would be near the center of the display .. and
just as surely it would be one of the larger rather than smaller flags.
Well .. no such luck. The flag was on the edge of the display, and it was
most certainly smaller than the flags displayed in the center of the room.
Just thought this was curious. But, then again, this is a government school.
By the way .... Saw a student in the hallways carrying his skateboard. Sad. A
future giant of industry no doubt.
PEACE CENTER

Now I love the city of San Francisco. Belinda and I spent some time out
there a few months ago. But the voters of San Francisco decided yesterday
whether to remove Alcatraz prison and replace it with
a "global peace centre." The director of California's Global Peace
Foundation says that transforming Alcatraz will "liberate energies, raising the
whole consciousness of the Bay Area."
Supporters want to destroy the prison and build a medicine wheel, a labyrinth
and a conference center for non-violent conflict resolution.
Just wonderful. A touchy-feely center for aging hippies and political
malcontents.
Remember ... when someone starts talking peace to you, you had better get a
definition of "peace" from them before you sign on. The Soviets thought that
peace was "an absence of opposition to world Communism." Come to think of it ..
.they might feel right at home on the new Alcatraz.
AHMADINEJAD GETS (FILTHY) DOGS
Iran's Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has
decided to buy four guard dogs, and ayatollahs from the holy city of Qom
have their turbans in a wad. That's because according to the peaceful, loving
religion of Islam, dogs are considered to be impure. The Iranian government has
banned domestic pet owners from taking them on city streets. Owners risk
penalties or "detention" of their animals. So what is going to happen now that
Ahmadinejad decided he wanted dogs?
Well apparently Ahmadinejad gets a pass because these dogs are only of German
breed, they were bought as puppies, and they were trained in the hands of
Iranian instructors. His purchase was also authorized by a fatwa issued by
several ayatollahs. They approved the use of dogs only if the goal was to
guarantee personal security and not infringe on any religious rules.
Never trust ANYONE who doesn't like dogs.
GIVING UP CARBON FOR LENT
Senior bishops of the Church of England are calling on Britons to cut back on
carbon for Lent, rather than choosing to avoid more traditional vices like
chocolate or alcohol.
They are calling it a "carbon fast."
Those taking part in the bishops' "green drive" can choose how they want to
reduce their carbon footprint. Some examples include taking out light bulbs, so
every time you try to turn on a light the darkness will remind you that you are
"helping the poor of the world." These bonkers Bishops also say that at the end
of Lent you can replace your light bulb with an energy-saving bulb. Oh .. and
don't forget to avoid plastic bags and insulate your house.
In the end, the bishops want to remind us all that the carbon fast is meant
to cut emissions and protect poor communities. Bishop James Jones says,
"There's a moral imperative on those of us who emit more than our fair share of
carbon to rein in our consumption." Here we go with this "fair share" nonsense
again. Who knew we all have our "fair share" of carbon?
I love that idea of taking out light bulbs to help the poor of the world.
Actually ... the best way you can help the poor is to not be one of them.
Thankfully, that's a pretty easy goal to reach.
How about giving up being a dumb ass for lent. Usually works for me.
"MOTHERS WILL VOTE FOR HILLARY"
Two Mexican-American sisters have made their way all the way to Congress.
Now they are making headlines because one sister is supporting Barack Obama and
one is supporting Hillary Clinton.
If you watch this video, you will hear the sister supporting Hillary,
Loretta Sanchez, explain why she will make a good president: "Mothers see
Hillary, they see the job she's done with Chelsea, and they understand she's
going to do a good job as president." (Excuse me while I clean my breakfast
from the front of my shirt.)
You can't make this stuff up, folks. Hillary will make a good president
because she was a good mother? Since when did good mothering skills become a
qualification to be the next president of the United States. And guess what?
It turns out that Loretta is single. She is one of those un-married women who
will carry Hillary Clinton to victory. And this woman is not a typical voter;
she is an elected official to Congress! Elected, I might add, with massive
voter fraud.
By the way ... when is someone going to address the question of whether or not
Hillary decided to get pregnant because she wanted to be a mother, or she
thought it would be a good political move. Intemperate question? Yup ... but a
good one, don't you think?

U.S. Airways maintenance crews found
this dangerous crack in the
window of one of their airliners. Not good.
A listener in Kennesaw, Georgia spotting
this wonderful sign
directing voters at his polling place. Great.
Mitt Romney is
accusing McCain and Huckabee of cutting back room deals that led to
Huckabee's victory in West Virginia.
Are Hillary's coughing fits
the new tears? Just when she has to answer the tough questions ...
nevertheless, this is no time to come down with a cold. OK .. I know. George
Bush 41 puked all over the Japanese prime minister.
Leading up to Super Tuesday,
John McCain received significantly more media coverage than his "almost
invisible" Republican rivals Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee. That's because the
media loves the "maverick" Senator.
Barack Obama won over the
primary voters of Indonesia ... yep, you read that correctly.
The United Benefit Advisors say to beware of any candidate that is
promising you universal healthcare. That warning will mean nothing to
womb-to-tomb government security types.
The Justice Department attorney, who is responsible for recommending
presidential pardons, has been transferred
because of racism accusations.
Sweden is considering
using state funds to provide Muslim imams with training in Swedish language
and culture.
A woman in Saudi Arabia visits a Starbucks.
What is the logical response? Try taking her to a Riyadh prison,
strip-searching her and forcing her to sign a confession for having been in the
presence of man to whom she is not related. What a wonderful religion.
A woman in Wisconsin showed up to the polls only to discover that
her state does not vote on Super Tuesday. And she wasn't the only one,
folks. And we are going to let these people vote?
Businesses in Iowa could face fines of $625 for
selling American or Iowa flags that are made in other countries.
A police survey in Oregon found that
panhandlers make up to $300 per day. That's more than a Wal-Mart employee
makes in a week.
A woman in Florida (no doubt ... a Hillary Clinton supporter) had to make a
tough decision.
Do you put a seatbelt on the case of beer or your 16-month-old daughter?
I think I will let the title of this article speak for itself:
