Barack Obama: Hypocrite in Chief

“Increasing America’s debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership means that the buck stops here. Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. … I therefore intend to oppose the effort to increase America’s debt limit.” – Senator Barack Obama in 2006

Trooper Ellen E. Engelhardt, who was left in a permanent vegetative state after being struck by a drunk driver in 2003, has died, State Police said today.

Trooper Ellen Engelhardt

“It is with profound sadness that we mourn the loss of Trooper Ellen Engelhardt, who was not just a valued colleague but also a dear friend who dedicated her career to protecting the citizens of our state. Since suffering the tragic injuries inflicted upon her in the line of duty by a drunk driver, Trooper Engelhardt has been an inspiration to every member of this Department for the courage, grace and dignity with which she lived,” Colonel Marian J. McGovern, the superintendent of the State Police, said in a statement.

Engelhardt was injured when a car traveling at nearly 100 miles per hour slammed into her cruiser, which was parked in the breakdown lane of Route 25 in Wareham.

The drunk driver, William P. Senne, who was 18 at the time of the crash, was sentenced in 2005 to 2 1/2 years in the Plymouth County House of Correction.

State Police said Engelhardt suffered “traumatic and life-altering injuries” in the crash on July 26, 2003. Her death is considered a “line-of-duty” death, and she is the 32nd member of the force to be killed in the line of duty since the agency’s founding.

A 2.5 year sentence is an absolute disgrace. What’s done is done, though, and cannot be changed; hopefully young Mr. Senne will live with this memory for the rest of his life.

Godspeed, Trooper Engelhardt…

Obama: “I just miss – I miss being anonymous”

Shenanigans!! Oh please! You’re the most narcissistic President to date!

Seriously, if you really miss that, why don’t you skip the re-election campaign for 2012? Yeah, I thought so…

Why can’t singers just shut the hell up when it comes to politics, and do what they do… sing.
It boggles my mind, especially when they come across as total idiots when talking about it.

Case in point, Garth Brooks. In the immortal words of Keyshawn Johnson – C’mon MAN!

Steny Hoyer: Asshat.

F*ck you, Hoyer. Most in the military take home a very small fraction of what you make in the House, and yet every day, while actually putting their life on the line; they do more every day, to make a difference in this world, than you will ever do in your lifetime… especially when partisan politics blind you.

Hey, if you don’t stand behind our troops, feel free to stand in front of them…

Hoyer: Military should also see pay freeze

NJ: Going to hell, one hand-basket at a time.

New Jersey Judge Rules Muslim Man’s Right to Rape as Religious Freedom

Just as in what the woman must do, and the definition of the word Islam – some libtard judge in NJ submitted to his will, attempting to make Sharia Law ok here. Fortunately, in the end, an appellate court had some sense. Still though… WTF???

Burning the Quran

Smite — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 18:57:01 +0000

Personally I think it’s idiotic and divisive, and I would especially be very annoyed if it caused unnecessary harm to any of our troops or civilians overseas. I’d add pointless into the mix to describe it too, but it clearly has a point – to incite anger and fan the flames of hatred. But really, speaking of intentionally fueling the fire – is it any different than building a mosque at ground zero in NYC?

What separates us from them, and makes us better people, is that we’re free to do it here. Hell, they’re even free to do it here too! How many times has the Bible been burned? or the US flag, or the Constitution? How many times have those things been burned on their soil even?

I bet you couldn’t get away (alive) with burning a Quran on their soil. Just food for thought…

WTF Wednesday: No national anthem for you!

I swear this country is going to hell in a hand-basket…

A group of students is told to stop singing the national anthem at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C. because it is considered an ‘illegal demonstration’.

Best part? They started back up again, and continued singing anyway! I guess there is still hope for the next generation after all.
