In response to the “new documentary ‘Oral Sex is the New Goodnight Kiss’, Pamela Geller lets fly a scathing criticism of the failed Women’s Liberation Movement. A taste:
“This is how the phony feminist movement empowered women? Girls selling the it for a handbag? Those men-hating parasites have ruined the glorious exaltation of women in 20th-century America. I know. I grew up in it. All one has to do is watch movies from the forties, fifties, and sixties (before the left culture rout) to catch a glimpse of the status of women. We were then formidable, respected, treasured, and above all…revered. It was as good as it gets.”
Now go read the rest.
I’d break it down for you, but Political Junkie Mom already did.
P.S. My homeschooling ark has already sailed.

I know we just talked about this a couple of days ago, but you’re probably too stupid to remember.
This time it’s Editor in Chief of Time Magazine that calls the American people idiots. Really. In his rant entitled “To Dumb to Thrive” he states:
“Absolutely amazing poll results from CNN today about the $787 stimulus package: nearly three out of four Americans think the money has been wasted. On second thought, they may be right: it’s been wasted on them. Indeed, the largest single item in the package–$288 billion–is tax relief for 95% of the American public. This money is that magical $60 to $80 per month you’ve been finding in your paycheck since last spring. Not a life changing amount, but helpful in paying the bills.
The next highest amount was $275 billion in grants and loans to states. This is why your child’s teacher wasn’t laid off…and why the fire station has remained open, and why you’re not paying even higher state and local taxes to close the local budget hole.….
It is impossible to be a citizen if you don’t make an effort to understand the most basic activities of your government. It is very difficult to thrive in an increasingly competitive world if you’re a nation of dodos.”
I was going to take a shot at this, but Bluto over at The Jawa Report did such a fine job, I’ll let you read him. Here’s how he starts off:
“Joe, let me put this in terms that someone like you, a sheltered ultra-liberal media parasite, can understand. The stimulus package operates on the economy in a zero-sum manner. If the government, which produces nothing, decides to spend however many tens of billions of dollars on “shovel-ready” boondoggles and buy-the-vote projects, that money comes from taxpayers, the people who are actually producing things.”

When I first saw this photo over at JammieWearingFools, I thought it was funny as SNAP! I mean SERIOUSLY? The President of the United States needs a teleprompter to give a 5 minute speech to a bunch of 6th graders? Hahahahaha!
But then I got to thinking, why was our President addressing said 6th graders?
I found the answer over at Riehl Worldview buried in the comments. Rio Grande Valley Girl says:
“What is even more disturbing than the need to whip TOTUS out to talk to school kids is the purpose of Obama’s visit to that school. He was announcing his desire to put billions more into his program “Race to the Top” (RttT in Obamaland cutespeak) and also create a means for school districts to bypass the authority of their State Boards of Education in order to apply for federal RttT funds. What is so disturbing about this? One of the requirements of winning this federal grant money is that local school districts must contractually agree to adopt federal curriculum guidelines, even those that have not yet been defined by the Obama Administration. Yup….the federal core curriculum issue rears its ugly head again.
Obama created the local school district bypass to these federal dollars in response to Rick Perry’s decision for Texas to opt out. Obama can’t stand Perry and the State of Texas….and was not about yield the chess board.”
So I did a little looking around and found out that my girl in the Rio Grande Valley knows what she’s talking about. Once again the Obama administration has rushed a bill forward and required desperate school districts to sign up for all this “free money” without providing any pesky details about what will be required of these schools or how much they will get. But you can bet your last #2 pencil there will be lots of regulations and the local school districts will end up even more broke than before. And from what mayonaise jar buried in the back yard are they finding this $700 million dollars in extra funding? I know, I know….it’s forthechildren and therefore you’re not supposed to ask those questions.
So glad Texas opted out of this mess. We will be better of for it. And if any school districts decide to go around the Governor and take the funds and get screwed in the process, I say the rest of the property owners in Texas not send one dime to bail them out.
Ask the banks who paid back their bailout loans (with interest) but are still under attack by the libs–this is a bad deal.

As we sat around the lunch table after church today, I asked each member of my family the question that our pastor suggested “How can I love you better?”. My son, being a pre-teen male, said he is being adequately loved thank-you-very-much, Husband said he’d tell me later (wink, wink) and daughter said “You could stop being so busy.”
Knife through the heart.
She went on to tell me that sometimes she feels like my work is more important than her. As I sat there watching my little daughter’s eyes puddle up, I thought of all the times I’d shushed her during a conference call, or told her I couldn’t do something because I was on a deadline, or (worst of all) told her I’d be right there when I knew I had no intention of being right there.
I sat alone on the Island of I-suck and decided that I don’t want to be that momma anymore. Soon enough my nine year old daughter will be done with me. So we looked at the calendar and planned a short overnight trip to the place where “you can get a donut the size of your head!” A donut won’t always fill my little girl’s love tank.
But it worked this time.

On the anniversary of his first year in office, President Obama sat down with short-but-cute George Stephanopolus for his 4 millionth interview to inform the American people that we are stupid.
I’m not kidding.
Our President said: “I think the assumption was if I just focus on policy, if I just focus on this provision or that law or if we’re making a good rational decision here, then people will get it.”
Remember when your kids were little and you had a running dialogue with them using third person? “Mommy’s going to put the green ball in the basket. Can you say green? Where does the green ball go? Good job!” Well, our President thinks that is the way he needs to talk to us. Because, you see, if he j u s t t a l k e d s l o w e n o u g h and maybe used finger puppets we would wholly embrace his radical leftist agenda.
Glad he cleared the whole ‘who’s stupid’ thing up for me. For a minute there, I thought it was him.

Congratulations to Senator-elect Brown. You have shown that giving people someone to vote FOR, not just against works everytime!
So, just what does Senator Brown’s election mean to us?
For several years now I have been hearing from the Republican establishment in these here parts that a Republican simply cannot win against incumbent Solomon Ortiz because this is South Texas and Solomon Ortiz’s last name is Ortiz. IYKWIMAITYD. Come to find out, most of these same arugula munchers have actually been voting FOR Solomon Ortiz. Mainly because that uncouth, blue collar guy from Ingleside kept winning the Republican primary. We can’t elect him, for heaven’s sake!! What would people think of us? ::eye roll:: Like they think so highly of us because we’re represented by the high school drop out from Robstown.
Whatever.
Scott Brown won in the state of Massachusetts because he did an end run around both parties. Yes, he ran on a REPUBLICAN ticket. He is smart enough to know that third party candidates don’t win elections. All I’m saying is that if Scott Brown can win an election in the bluest of blue states, there is more than a passing chance that a Republican could oust an increasingly unpopular Solomon Ortiz.
Just sayin’.

I’ll blog about something important tomorrow. Promise.

Wow.
I’m not used to this much snark from the Main Street Media. They are usually such Democrat lap dogs. Maybe its because they’re talking about Joe Biden. He’s an easy mark. I could learn to like this.
