No, Nancy Pelosi, It's Not About Voter Suppression. It's About A MURDERED U.S. Agent. The End.

LawdaMERCY, the field day the left would have with Nancy Pelosi if she were conservative!  Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachmann have nothing on her. Nothing. Not even combined. First, there was the "We have to pass the bill so you can find out what's in it" (I can't even comment on that one...), followed by the "There's something I know" incident with Newt (someone on an ETHICS Committee releasing privileged information....that's rich.), and now Nancypants is leading the way (no...literally) on accusing the GOP of having some racist, political agenda behind the vote to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in Contempt of Congress.
Is this woman for real??


In an(other) epic failure to paint herself as some civil rights champion among the ranks of Martin Luther King, Jr. and Rosa Parks, Pelosi marched right out of the U.S. Capitol yesterday, leading members of  "her" Congressional Black Caucus (I'm still confused about that one...) and other Democrats when the clock struck vote time.
(Check it... Almost thought she was Jesus. Then I realized it's a pantsuit, not a robe.)

Obama's Evolution, Part Deux: Exercising Executive Privilege

Well, well, well.... Let's start with this little gem of a video.

Oops. Well thank goodness for yet another evolution on the part of the Top Dog, or the Attorney General would be screwed (No, "dog" is not a racial slur, thanks.). As if "Fast and Furious" wasn't a large enough slap in the face, White House spokesman Dan Pfeiffer made this statement in response to the House Committee's recommendation to hold Holder in contempt:

“With millions of Americans still struggling to pay the bills, Republicans announced at the beginning of this year that one of their top priorities was to investigate the administration and damage the president politically..... We are 10 days away from the expiration of federal transportation funding which guarantees jobs for almost a million construction workers because Congress hasn’t passed a transportation bill. We are 11 days away from nearly seven and a half million students seeing their loan rates double because Congress hasn’t acted to stop it. But instead of creating jobs or strengthening the middle-class, Congressional Republicans are spending their time on a politically-motivated, taxpayer-funded election-year fishing expedition,”


Mmmkay, soooo..... This administration and Congressional Democrats have spent MONTHS talking about who should pay for a woman's birth control and the fact that a dude on the radio called someone a slut, but addressing the lies surrounding a secret operation that resulted in the illegal transfer of over 1600 assault weapons, as well as the deaths of an American Border Patrol Agent and hundreds of Mexicans is nothing more than a fishing expedition to damage the president politically??? And it isn't just birth control. Their entire agenda this year has been to shift focus to any number of comparably insignificant issues to keep focus off of the train wreck that is Obama's presidency.... Birth control. Gay marriage. Student loans. Rush Limbaugh. The non-existent war on women. The certain death that will come with Voter ID laws. Mitt Romney: Ponytail Slasher. Trayvon Martin (with all due respect). Herman Cain's imaginary harassment victims. SOFT DRINKS AND WHAT A 4 YEAR OLD GIRL TAKES TO SCHOOL FOR LUNCH, for crying out loud! Okay, I have to stop before I yak up my lunch (which, coincidentally, was not chicken nuggets...the food our government thinks is somehow healthier than a turkey & cheese sandwich).


You know, I'm starting to understand Michelle Obama's declaration of pride for her country for the first time ever.... except the opposite... because for the first time ever, I'm actually ashamed of my country. Ashamed that the Obama administration places more value on its pride than on a man who gave his life in service to his country. Ashamed that this administration has no desire to get to the bottom of such a botched operation and hold those responsible accountable. Ashamed that the American people are not outraged over this tragedy and demanding justice (Maybe we should change Brian Terry's last name to Halliburton...). And more than anything, I am BEYOND ashamed that more than 500 days after Terry was murdered, President Obama has yet to apologize or even acknowledge Terry's parents and family and the devastating pain that has been their lives for the last year and a half. Nothing. Not a single word. He had words for Trayvon Martin's parents in a public address from the White House Rose Garden, but for a U.S. AGENT'S parents? Nothing.


Then there's Al Sharpton. Fair, unbiased Al Sharpton STILL hasn't shut up about Trayvon Martin (God rest his soul). Despite George Zimmerman having a broken nose, multiple head wounds, a lower back injury and more, the great Rev. won't stop until he has convinced every life form on this planet that Trayvon's death was an intentional, racially motivated hate crime. Yet, for some reason, he doesn't believe in the same justice when it comes to Brian Terry's death. The bad guys in this case aren't the actual murderers, but the people demanding the murderers come clean. Amazing.


Does ANYONE in this administration have a heart? Aren't they supposed to be the party of compassion? 'Cause I'm having a hard time finding the compassion here.... Deceit, disrespect, and lies? Yes. Compassion, no. I can't shake the feeling that had this happened under Bush's watch, justice would have been demanded by the very people suppressing justice today. Though, if you ask White House Mouse Jay Carney, he'll tell you it's still Bush's fault since Fast & Furious started during his presidency (which it didn't). Only problem is....if any of the documents Holder and Obama are hiding implicated Bush and/or exonerated Obama, they would have handed them over in a heartbeat. Nice try, though.

The 3 Branches of Government: The President, The President, and The President?

President Obama announced today that his administration has deemed the Defense of Marriage Act unconstitutional and the Department of Justice will no longer defend the act, which is a FEDERAL LAW.

It's my understanding that Mr. Obama served as President of the Harvard Law Review. What with that and the fact that he's.. well... President of the country, I would assume he has knowledge of the workings of the government of the United States and the process by which laws are passed and/or deemed constitutional. I could be wrong, but I believe the appropriate measure by which our Department of Justice can defend a law as constitutional or unconstitutional isn't determined by the current president's opinion. If I'm not mistaken, the reason we have different branches of government is to avoid that very thing.

I'm not too big to admit when I'm wrong, so if someone can enlighten me as to when this may have changed, please let me know so I can pack my bags!

((((***DISCLAIMER: This post has NOTHING to do with my personal opinion on the Defense of Marriage Act and / or gays, lesbians, bisexuals, transgenders, etc. The law in question is NOT the issue. The issue is a president [no matter whom] thinking his authority supercedes the structure of our government that has been in place for over 200 years. Do NOT call me a prejudiced gay basher.***)))
