More Ohio voter fraud

From Cleveland....

Among the thousands of graves at Highland Park Cemetery, one modest tombstone stands out. Alex Holmes Sr. has been at rest in that cemetery for 15 years.

But recent election records show he cast a ballot in this year's primary. And our 5 On Your Side investigation found a home on Cleveland's east side listed as Holmes' address. Jeremy Moore, Holmes' grandson, was stunned. "He's deceased. Deceased since 1993," Moore said. And it doesn't appear to be a name mix-up. Records reveal Alex Holmes Jr. -- who is still alive -- voted in the same election as his deceased father. Cuyahoga County Elections Director Jane Platten said she'll look in to it. "Without having full detail, I have no idea why that would have happened," Platten said.

But this isn't the first time we've uncovered dead voters. Two years ago, another 5 On Your Side investigation exposed 13,000 dead voters registered in Cuyahoga County.

More than two dozen of them cast ballots. Back then, NewsChannel5 was told dead voters would be removed from the rolls. Now, on the eve of an historic election -- when every vote in Cuyahoga County is considered crucial -- our NewsChannel5 investigation has once again uncovered thousands of dead voters still on the rolls, and ballots still being cast from beyond.

The exact number of dead voters is difficult to say this time because Ohio's Secretary of State issued a directive to Boards of Elections across the state to withhold dates of births in public records requests.

That information is important in positively identifying dead voters. Our NewsChannel5 investigative team sorted the data and then hit the streets in neighborhoods across the county.

After all the work, the record showed serious questions about 27 people. Those 27 people appear to be dead voters. In many of the cases this time, the dead were counted because of technical mistakes. In one case, a wife signed in the wrong place and her deceased husband was counted as the voter. "That shouldn't have been counted that way. You agree with that?" Pohlman asked. "Yes," Platten said. And in another case, the word "deceased" looked like a signature. While Platten said she’s concerned about what NewsChannel5 found, she insisted there is no evidence of fraud. "I think that there is not an abuse of it. I think that this is something that internally is something we need to work on and clean up," Platten said. But a "clean up" could be difficult in a system that still counts "ballots from beyond."

Obama the "Robo-Candidate"

"After all this time with him, I still can't say with certainty who he is," wrote Peter Nicholas of the Los Angeles Times Tuesday about Sen. Barack Obama, with whom he's spent roughly 18 hours a day for most of this campaign.

Mr. Obama rarely engages in banter with the reporters who travel with him, and typically is in "robo-candidate mode" on those occasions he does speak with them, Mr. Nicholas said.

"Ironically, those of us who were sent out to take his measure in person can't offer much help in answering who he is, or if he is ready. The barriers set in place between us and him were just too great."

Less is known about Barack Obama than about any major party candidate for president in modern history. His public resume is thin -- eight years in the Illinois Senate, four in the U.S. Senate, with two of them spent running for president.

And no candidate for president has had more problematic associations."

Jack Kelly: Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

He Will "Change the World" II

Bill O'Reilly: "Despite deep disenchantment with the Republican Party, most Americans remain traditional in their beliefs and do not admire entitlement cultures such as those in France and Scandinavia. Certainly, the Founding Fathers did not want a huge federal apparatus interfering in personal finance. Now many voters, especially senior citizens who understand income redistribution, are becoming fearful that an Obama administration might bring about not only change, but drastic change.

The McCain campaign has seized on this. But with just a few days to go, it might be too late. However, fear can make folks do things quickly. This election is not over until the very frightened fat lady sings."

Hillary Clinton: "On Tuesday, New Yorkers and Americans have a big decision to make. Do we continue to pursue the policies of the past eight years or do we chart a new course? I believe we can and we must chart a new course led by President Barack Obama.

We cannot afford four more years of the same broken ideological policies. Barack Obama must be our President. And Democrats must once again clean up an economic mess the Republicans left behind. We've done it before, and we'll do it again.

By the close of the Clinton administration, America had created 22 million new jobs. Our nation built a new economy with the lowest child poverty rate in 20 years. Wages were rising and prosperity was shared. The country produced balanced budgets and a surplus. Now, eight years later, they had to add a digit to the national debt clock."

Billary...

He Will "Change the World"

After the big gamble on subprime mortgages that led to the current financial crisis, is there going to be an even bigger gamble, by putting the fate of a nation in the hands of a man whose only qualifications are ego and mouth?

Barack Obama has the kind of cocksure confidence that can only be achieved by not achieving anything else.

Anyone who has actually had to take responsibility for consequences by running any kind of enterprise-- whether economic or academic, or even just managing a sports team-- is likely at some point to be chastened by either the setbacks brought on by his own mistakes or by seeing his successes followed by negative consequences that he never anticipated.

The kind of self-righteous self-confidence that has become Obama's trademark is usually found in sophomores in Ivy League colleges-- very bright and articulate students, utterly untempered by experience in real world.

And yet even more from "the most ethical congress in history""

This time it's Robert Wexler (D, Florida or Maryland depending on his tax situation).....

Florida congressman and Barack Obama Florida campaign chairman Robert Wexler has allegedly filed 25 amended FEC reports in the days immediately following Bill O'Reilly busting him in front of his Maryland home on camera.

As some might remember, Bill O'Reilly caught Florida Congressman Robert Wexler on tape admitting that he claimed a home owned by his in-laws as his primary residence (in Florida) while he lived in Maryland. Florida has no state income tax.

This was discovered on 7/22/08.

Wexler's opponent seems to have a very compelling argument that there is much more on Wexler needing to be revealed (see link below). Wexler's campaign allegedly submitted 25 amended FEC reports between 7/23/08 (one day after O'Reilly busted him) and 7/30/08.

The one common thread running through all of the amended reports? Any contributions shown to come from a company called Newbridge Securities were re-assigned to other companies, some of which were OUT OF BUSINESS at the time they supposedly now contributed.

If these allegations are true, the Wexler campaign could be guilty of money laundering and multiple FEC violations.

The party of Main Street?

The conventional wisdom espoused by our TOM (tired old media) says that republicans represent the big money interests on Wall Street.

If that's the case, how's this possible?

According to the Center for Responsive Politics Web site OpenSecrets.org, out the top 25 political contributors for the 2008 election cycle, nine were Wall Street banking or investment firms, including the now defunct firm Lehman Brothers. Employees at eight of those nine firms gave more money to Democratic candidates – nearly $17 million to Democratic candidates versus only $11 million to their Republican counterparts. That’s 60 percent for Democrats to only 40 percent for Republicans.

Four of the top six overall donors are Wall Street financial firms participating in part of the recently passed $850 billion bailout – Goldman Sachs (NYSE:GS), Citigroup (NYSE:C), JP Morgan Chase (NYSE:JPM) and Morgan Stanley (NYSE:MS). Employees of those firms gave $10.4 million to Democrats and $6 million to Republicans or 63 percent Democrat. Employees of bank Goldman Sachs alone gave $3.6 million to Democrats and $1.3 million to Republicans, a nearly 3-to-1 ratio.

Still, the Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama criticized Republican President George W. Bush for putting Wall Street before Main Street with the blame for the crisis. “Now, this didn’t happen by accident. Our falling GDP is a direct result of eight years of the trickle down, Wall Street first/Main Street last policies that have driven our economy into a ditch,” Obama said at a speech in Sarasota, Fla., on Oct. 30.

From the Enquirer

A Connecticut man admitted he voted while visiting Ohio during the so-called “golden week” of Sept. 30 - Oct. 6.

That was the week that, thanks to a fluke of the calendar, voters could register to vote and then immediately cast their ballot.

The man asked that his ballot be pulled, and Friday the Hamilton County Elections Board said it will do so, referring the ballot for investigation.

• Poll: Voting fraud in Ohio?

It's not clear what charges he could face. His name was not released.

The remaining 670 ballots cast by Hamilton Countians that week -- and questioned by County Prosecutor Joe Deters in a voter fraud investigation -- will be processed as normal as long as the elections board can verify the addresses.

About 17 registration notices mailed out to those voters were returned as undeliverable. If the board cannot verify the address is correct, they also will be referred for investigation.

In Ohio, illegal voting is a fourth-degree felony punishable by a fine of up to $5,000 and six to 18 months in state prison. Getting caught for voter fraud in a federal election can result in five years in prison and a $10,000 fine.

Red State - Blue State

A couple of days ago I ran into this little gem over at a liberal blog.

Dear Red States, We’ve decided we’re leaving. We intend to form our own country, and we’re taking the other Blue States with us. In case you aren’t aware, that includes Hawaii, California, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, New York, and all of the Northeastern states. After this election, we’ll be adding Colorado and New Mexico. We believe this split will be beneficial to the nation, especially to the people of our new country - Nuevo California.

“To sum up briefly: You get Texas, Oklahoma and all the slave states; we get stem cell research, the best beaches, and the best ski resorts. We get the Statue of Liberty; you get Dollywood. We get Intel and Microsoft; you get WorldCom. We get Stanford, Harvard, Princeton, Yale, Cal Tech, MIT and Columbia; you get Ole’ Miss. We get 85 percent of America’s venture capital and entrepreneurs; you get Alabama. We get two-thirds of the tax revenue; you get to make the red states pay their fair share. …

“With the Blue States, we will control 80 percent of the country’s fresh water, 90 percent of pineapple and lettuce, 92 percent of the nation’s fresh fruit, 97 percent of America’s quality wines (you can serve French wines at your state dinners), 90 percent of all cheese, 90 percent of the high tech industry, most of the U.S. low-sulfur coal, all living redwoods, sequoias and condors, and all the Ivy League and Seven Sister schools. We also get New England, the Great Lakes and Yosemite, thank you very much.

“In the Red States, you will have to cope with 88 percent of all obese Americans and their projected health care costs, 92 percent of all U.S. mosquitoes, 100 percent of tornadoes, 94 percent of hurricanes, 99 percent of Southern Baptists, virtually 100 percent of all televangelists, as Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Bob Jones University, and Clemson.”

It's kind of cute but to quote Ronald Reagan... "Liberals know so much, they just know so much about things that aren't so".

Red State - Blue State is a over simplification of the political divide in this country. Above is the 2004 map broken down by county. As you can clearly see from the map, most of the urban areas in this country are blue. The suburban and rural areas are red.

What do we know about these blue areas v. the red ones....

The blue areas have higher unemployment
Higher crime
Horrible schools
High Taxes
More homeless and bums
Poor business climates

In fact, I would offer that the bluer the area, the worse these things get.

Take for instance the city of Detroit. The Marines will find Osama bin Laden before a anyone will find a republican in that city.

What's it like there? Well it took three days for the city to sell a house for $1.00.

Or let's take Chicago. How's the city where The Messiah was born working for everyone? I guess it's fine unless you're one of the 400 plus people murdered this year.

Maybe the best example is New York. Remember the New York of the 1970's and 1980's under the Ed Koch and David Dinkin's administrations? It was a flat out, bankrupt, cesspool. It took a moderate republican mayor just to make that city actually livable again.

I've been making this challenge to liberals for over two years now and none of them have the stones to get on my comment section and tell me, exactly what makes these democratic areas so wonderful to live in?

By the way, for the liberal ding dong who posted the gem above. You can't have Yosemite and Napa and actually most of the places you note in your piece. See, if you would actually look at the map you would see that these are red areas.

No, I'm sure the red areas would be more than happy for you to secede as long as you take Gary Indiana and New Orleans with you and we'll take Yellowstone thank you very much.

Oh, by the way, if you want our country to look like, say, Cleveland, Obama's your man.

Reasons to be encouraged?

Reasons for McCain supporters to be encouraged.

I've read many a analysis of the early voting and things look somewhat hopeful for Maverick.

Colorado

Nevada

Florida

While there may be some bright spots in this information, I think any analysis of early voting and/or polling could be skewed as a result of the following fact sets.

For instance, it appears that democrats have requested more absentee ballots in Ohio than republicans. Good for Obama right?

Except that a legion of republicans switched parties in March to vote in the democratic primary. Ole Gordon was one of them.

In fact, I wonder if the polling has taken this into account. Consider that if polling organizations look at Ohio and see 38% registered democratic and 28% registered republicans, I'm guessing that their polling sample will be reflective of those numbers. But let's say there was a 2% swing from republicans switching their registrations. Do the polling firms now look at getting a sampling of 40% democrat and 26% republican? I don't know.

During the spring, the DNC claimed they were encouraged by the party switching because it was evidence of disaffected republicans. While I'm sure there was some of this, I know of four people who switched for the exclusive purpose of voting for The Billary.

Combine that with the "undecided" voter. My gut tells me that a large portion of these voters are people who absolutely detest McCain (like myself) but the thought of voting Obama is even more sickening. I'm guessing that if you are an Obama fan, you are dying to be polled to tell them who you are supporting. If you are a McCain voter, you probably not only don't want to talk to a pollster you may just say you're undecided due to your lack of enthusiasm. But when push comes to shove, you'll hold your nose and vote McCain.

Then there's the Bradley effect. I have a different take on the Bradley effect. In general, the hypothesis is that white voters don't want to appear racist by picking the other candidate. As a result, black candidates over poll. But consider that the Bradley effect has less to do with white voters than black. Can you imagine being black, being polled and not supporting the black candidate? I'm sure that no African American wants the scourge that Clarence Thomas gets for being an"Uncle Tom".

If this holds true, I'm thinking that the "Bradley effect" will be negligible.

Finally, one last issue that comes into play. Fraudulent votes. There's little doubt that there is rampant voter fraud being committed by Obamamunists. Just yesterday, a congressional aide was fired for registering in Ohio despite being a NY resident.

How many of these are there? How many Donald Duck's have received an absentee ballot to vote for The Messiah?

Lot's of issues in play. I'm guessing we won't know until late Tuesday whether or not Obama can put on his coronation crown and robe.

Don't Let Up

How much is fair? The Obamamunist quiz answer

I know liberals read this blog because they never hesitate to make a snarky comment about Palin buying a $200.00 pair of shoes or Joe the Plumber being a tax cheat, etc.

So I was somewhat surprised when they didn't jump in on my challenge last week about how much is fair? Not!

As you can see from my previous post, liberals have no idea how much money people actually pay in taxes.

Let's go back to the challenge last week. Joe and Suzie Rich make $250,000 (see the link above for the rest of the fact set) this is how much they pay in taxes.

Federal Income Tax $43,713
FICA $12,090 (matched by their employer)
Medicare $1,813 (matched by their employer)
State Income Tax $12,230
City of Cincinnati Tax $5,250

That's a combined tax liability of $75,096. This doesn't even count real estate taxes, sales tax, school district income tax, etc...

That seems like a lot of money to me.

After you deduct the taxes, this couple has $150,000 left; which seems like it's still a lot of money. Until they start paying mortgages, cars, tuition, groceries, their retirement, etc, etc.

It seems to me that these folks are already shouldering more than their "fair share" of the load.

And yet a liberal would have no problem walking into a bar and expecting this couple to buy them beers, which is the net result of our tax shifts.

LF Well, you know they get all those write offs and everything....

GG I'm asking you point blank. How much is fair, in whole dollars?

LF First, you know I'm a fan of the flat tax. These guys shouldn't have all these write offs....

GG How much should they pay?

LF Well, I don't know exactly.

GG So what you're saying is that what they currently pay is "fair".

LF No. they don't pay enough!

GG So let's do this again. How much, in dollars should they pay?

LF I'm thinking 15% WITH NO WRITE OFFS!.

GG That comes to $37,500. Is that fair.

LF Yeah, that's fair.

GG My client is currently looking at a tax liability of $44,000. So what you are saying is that they need a tax cut.

LF But they get write offs on that; right?

GG Yeah, they get all the big "write offs" mortgage deduction, taxes, charity, etc.

LF But see, they shouldn't be getting all those write offs.

GG They are already paying more with the write offs then what you say is fair without. Following your "fair" premise, they'd get a tax cut if you got rid of the write offs and went to a flat tax.

LF Whatever, they don't pay enough.....

If you want to know why Obama is in the lead, you need look no further than this conversation.

Ortega = Obama

I've always been amazed at the media prone stance towards lefty politicians. After all, when socialists and communists take over country what's the first thing they do?

Stifle the media.

Down in Nicaragua, where Daniel Ortega (that would be the same Daniel Ortega who's endorsed The Messiah) they're having a small issue of persecution of journalists.

Those who opposed the dictatorship were imprisoned, forced into exile, stripped of their possessions and denied their fundamental rights. Some, like opposition leader Jorge Salazar, were murdered.

It is not by chance that Ortega's new regime was announced with the murder of journalist Carlos Guadamuz and later was installed in open confrontation with the communications media and the journalists. The persecution now targets my brother, Carlos Fernando Chamorro, because, as a journalist and with the same valor that our parents displayed, he is in the front ranks of combat against the Ortega dictatorship, defending Nicaraguans' freedoms and fundamental rights.

It is tough to realize that we are again in the same struggle, after so much sacrifice and blood spilled in two wars. The destruction of the democratic process is not the fault of the freedom-loving people, who remain defiant, but of political leaders who call themselves democrats, such as the corrupt autocrat Arnoldo Alemán. He and Ortega joined to hijack the democratic institutions and perpetuate themselves through the Power of the Pact, which understands only subjugation that sweeps away every lesser authority, a power that is absolute and centralizing.

Historic crime

Ortega mercilessly targets my brother Carlos Fernando because he knows that the freedom of expression that our people have defended at all costs is like the Holy Cross against the devil. The triumph of freedom of expression in Nicaragua is a fact that was proven against two dictatorships. Its defenders will not allow Ortega and his family to perpetuate themselves in power and will not allow journalists like my brother to lose this political battle, which is not personal but waged by all Nicaraguans.

Although it has toppled the institutions, the historic crime committed by Alemán and Ortega against democracy, progress and the hopes of the people has been unable (and will not be able) to destroy the popular devotion that Nicaragua feels toward freedom of expression. It was sealed with the blood of thousands of heroes and martyrs and is again the center of national unity in defense of Carlos Fernando, national journalism and the popular clamor that, for the third time, cries: ``Democracy, yes; dictatorship, no.''

Couldn't happen here in the US?

The Hills they Die on #2 - Affirmative Action

Is affirmative action needed today?

If you listen to democrats, you'll never find one who will say it's time to get rid of it. This, despite the fact that today we have an African American presidential candidate and a female vice presidential candidate.

But ask the question, how is it possible for a black man to achieve this status without the benefit of affirmative action? And if this is possible, why do we insist on a policy that taints the accomplishments of people targeted by affirmative action?

The most you will ever get from a democrat on this issue is a Bill Clinton rhyme of mend it... don't end it.

Since the introduction of prop 209 in California, there has been little change in the enrollment of minorities in California universities. So why do we insist on a policy that undermines the success of targeted groups?

So if you go to a democratic function and you are against affirmative action. My advice to you is to keep your eye on the exits. That's where you'll be headed when you expose your views.

Because, for democrats, it's a hill they'll die on.

Media in the bag

It's tough enough for McCain to compete against a billion dollar campaign but when he also has to campaign against all the media outlets as well, it might be too much.

From the LA Times....

John McCain's presidential campaign Tuesday accused the Los Angeles Times of "intentionally suppressing" a videotape it obtained of a 2003 banquet where then-state Sen. Barack Obama spoke of his friendship with Rashid Khalidi, a leading Palestinian scholar and activist.

The Times first reported on the videotape in an April 2008 story about Obama's ties with Palestinians and Jews as he navigated the politics of Chicago. The report included a detailed description of the tape, but the newspaper did not make the video public.

"A major news organization is intentionally suppressing information that could provide a clearer link between Barack Obama and Rashid Khalidi," said McCain campaign spokesman Michael Goldfarb. " . . . The election is one week away, and it's unfortunate that the press so obviously favors Barack Obama that this campaign must publicly request that the Los Angeles Times do its job -- make information public."

The Times on Tuesday issued a statement about its decision not to post the tape.

"The Los Angeles Times did not publish the videotape because it was provided to us by a confidential source who did so on the condition that we not release it," said the newspaper's editor, Russ Stanton. "The Times keeps its promises to sources."

Here's an idea for the Times and any other news organization. How about at least confronting The Messiah about the information on the tape and interrogating him about why he's palling around with anti Semitic Israel haters. Confront him with the fact that a tape indeed does exist. How about that?

Somehow, I'd bet if the Times received a video tape of Sarah Palin going on a $15,000 clothing bender, they'd find a way to post it.

I bet the NY Times will get to this right after they finish their reporting on Joe the Plumber's 1999 Playboy subscription.

And these guys are wondering why subscription rates are heading into the toilet.

The most "ethical" congress in history

I guess Nancy's proclamation is true if the congress refuses to investigate any impropriety like the head of the committee overseeing tax law who apparently didn't pay all of his taxes.

An attorney for House Ways and Means Chairman Charlie Rangel (N.Y.) acknowledged Monday that more than six weeks after the senior Democrat announced he would hire a forensic auditor to scour his tax and financial records, he has yet to do so, saying an extensive review process has delayed any action...

Rangel is also under scrutiny by the House Committee on Standards of Official Conduct, which voted in late September to establish an investigative subcommittee into a multitude of alleged rules violations by the senior lawmaker.

The panel’s investigation will examine Rangel’s ownership of a Dominican Republic villa — the lawmaker has admitted he failed to report rental income, the nexus of his tax troubles — as well as his use of House parking facilities for long-term vehicle storage, fundraising efforts on behalf of a City College of New York center bearing his name, and the lawmaker’s use of multiple rent-controlled apartments as his primary residence...

However, it remains unclear when the ethics panel would resume consideration of the matter if the report is not completed before that time. The committee would be required to initiate a new investigation at the start of the next Congress.

Newt Gingrich Discusses LA Times Obama-Khalidi Tape

Some lovely Obama endorsements

So it's bad enough that The Messiah gets endorsements from such mentally stable people like Madonna but it also looks like he's got the world despot vote locked up.

Hamas yanked its support in June when Obama made a pro-Israel speech to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, Reuters reported. But last week Yousef told Batchelor and Klein that Hamas would send Obama a congratulatory letter "the moment that he will win the election."

Obama has also gotten a nod of approval from Iran.

The country's parliament speaker said on Oct. 22 that Iran would prefer an Obama presidency. "We are leaning more in favor of Barack Obama because he is more flexible and rational, even though we know American policy will not change that much," Ali Larijani told Agence France-Presse.

Chosun Shinbo, a newspaper based in Japan that is a mouthpiece for the North Korean government, wrote in an editorial in June: "We will see a better relationship between the U.S. and the Korean Peninsula with Obama, who sternly criticizes Bush and who would meet the leader of Chosun without pre-conditions, than with the 'Bush clone' and scarecrow of the neocons McCain."

In February, Investors Business Daily reported that while not endorsing Obama, Colombian guerilla terrorist organization FARC's chieftain Raul Reyes has said he wants to see him in the White House. He told supporters that he met "two gringos" who said "the new president of their country will be Obama and that they are interested in your compatriots. Obama will not support "Plan Colombia" nor will he sign the TLC (Free Trade Agreement)." Plan Colombia is the U.S. program funding the war on drugs and giving military support to the Colombian government.

Obama has even garnered the praises of Louis Farrakhan, leader of the Nation of Islam. "You are the instruments that God is going to use to bring about universal change, and that is why Barack has captured the youth. And he has involved young people in a political process that they didn't care anything about. That's a sign. When the Messiah speaks, the youth will hear, and the Messiah is absolutely speaking," Farrakhan said.

Fidel Castro has also jumped on the Obama bandwagon, saying Obama "without doubt is, from the social and human point, the most advanced candidate" running for the U.S. presidency, Reuters reported in May.

Governor Ted on Issue 6

Governor Ted on Issue 6

“Today I’m announcing my opposition to Issue 6. I continue to believe that this is simply not the right economic development strategy for our state. I strongly believe that this measure would not be in the best interests of Ohio families or our state as a whole.”

What exactly is "right economic development strategy for our state", Governor? Keno?

I'm not a big fan of these casino issues. For me, each one of these ballot initiatives have become nothing more than a creation of a real estate cartel.

None the less, I don't think this state is in the current position of picking and choosing the "right" companies for economic development strategy. The state has a horrible reputation for being anti business. In addition, the state of Ohio has little, if nothing, to offer companies looking to set up businesses for profit when other states offer so much more. What's the saying? "beggars can't be choosy".

Part of employing the "right economic development strategy for our state" is to acknowledge that all business activity is good.

But I guess for Governor Ted, the "right economic development strategy for our state" has to include high taxes, ridiculous bureaucracy, and a bad pool of potential employees from a miserable education system.

I guess we just need to sit and wait around for the good times to kick in any day now.

Socialism only hurts the poor

Now that the campaign has come down to total class warfare, let me offer this to those who want to "help the poor".

Ask yourself this question, of the 10 plus percent of the unemployed in Michigan, how many of those people are "rich"? How many of the Big Dogs in Detroit are feeling the pinch of their bad economy?

Of the seven plus percent of Ohioans currently unemployed, how many are "rich"?

See, the rich really don't have to worry about the economic policies of the Obamamunistas and the Axis of Taxes, because they will always have access to resources the poor will never have.

The only people hurt by socialism are the poor and disenfranchised.

If you're rich, you're probably well educated and mobile. You lose your job, relocate and get another. The only people left behind are the "miseducated", the undereducated and poor who have no other options.

If we have a bad economy, I won't worry about my financial situation, Gordon and Mrs. Gekko have the education and financial where with all to weather any financial storm. But we have relatives that don't. And guess what? A bad economy will hurt them much more than it will hurt us.

Here's another tid bit of information, I believe I can make a persuasive argument that the rich don't pay taxes at all .... ever. The only people who bear the brunt of tax increases are the poor. Again, the rich look at taxes like they view the cost of production. Prices increase? Pass it along to those who will absorb it, and the passes keep flowing downhill until the poor ends up with the bag. Call it economic gravity.

Conservatives get a bum rap for their alleged lack of compassion for the poor. But in reality, they just get it. They understand that bad government policies will always hurt the poor more than themselves.

Once again, I'll point out that democrats have done an excellent job of making their constituents poor and have turned their misery into a cottage industry of job protection. Just look at Detroit, you'd think that somewhere a bulb would go off in someone's head "Gosh we keep voting for democrats in this city and it's still a dump. Maybe we should elect a republican for a change".

Or if you are a Californian, maybe the bulb goes off "Wow, all these businesses and rich people are moving to Nevada, maybe we should emulate their policies".

All of our states and cities are beautiful microcosims of how democratic policies impact the poor. So you want to vote for the Axis of Taxes, fine. Just look at what they've done to the city of Chicago and you can have that for the US. My guess? The rich are still doing quite well. The poor? Well, the one's who haven't been gunned down yet are still poor.

There's lot's of blue in them thar states

Here's a graph of state tax receipts for the third quarter, 2008.

It looks to me that a lot of these states are "blue".

Coincidence?

Of course, we all know that it's really Bush's fault that these states weren't ready for an economic downturn.

What's so "progressive" about bankrupt states?

HT Taxprof

What's so "progressive" about a low standard of living?

City Journal on the real election that occurs when governments become liberal; the flight of people and money.

Several key economic indicators point to grim news for the Golden State in the aftermath of the Wall Street meltdown. The state’s unemployment rate has jumped to 7.7 percent, its highest rate in 12 years and the third-worst in the United States. In Riverside County, 40 percent of homes sold in the past year are in foreclosure. Unfortunately, California’s government doesn’t seem interested in solving the state’s economic problems.

California continues to be burdened with high taxes, punitive regulations, huge wealth-transfer programs, out-of-control spending, and lawsuit abuse. And there’s no end in sight to the state’s fiscal madness. The “balanced budget” signed only a few weeks ago by Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger already runs a deficit of as much as $5.5 billion. Last week, to cover state expenditures for the rest of the fiscal year, the state sold $5 billion in short-term notes. Schwarzenegger bought $100,000 worth himself.

Analysts already project that next fiscal year’s budget will be billions in the red. State spending has increased at a faster rate under Schwarzenegger than under his predecessor, Gray Davis. Every year, California puts taxpayers on the hook for yet more spending without any reform of the government’s boneheaded economic policies. It’s not surprising, then, that California ranks fourth-to-last in the Pacific Research Institute’s 2008 U.S. Economic Freedom Index, published in association with Forbes. The Index measures how friendly or unfriendly each state’s government policies are toward free enterprise and consumer choice. Its rankings derive from a comprehensive evaluation of fiscal, judicial, and regulatory indicators such as tax rates, state spending, occupational licensing, environmental rules, income redistribution, tort reform, and prevailing-wage laws.

When he arrived in Sacramento, Schwarzenegger promised to end government overreach. He pledged to “blow up” boxes in the state’s organizational chart, “tear up the credit card” for state legislators, and curtail taxes. Thus far, though, any “Schwarzenegger effect” on state governance has been difficult to discern. Since 2004—Schwarzenegger’s first full year in office—California’s economic-freedom ranking in the PRI index improved only two places, from an abysmal 49 to 47. And $5 billion of new debt will do nothing to bolster the Governator’s self-proclaimed reputation as a fiscal hawk.

By contrast, Nevada, California’s neighbor to the east, boasts a much more favorable economic environment. Nevada ranked sixth among the states in economic freedom, an improvement from 2004, when it placed twelfth. But the model of economic freedom among the states is slightly further east—South Dakota. The Mount Rushmore State imposes no corporate-income tax, no personal-income tax, no personal-property tax, no business-inventory tax, and no inheritance tax. States in the Great Plains and Rocky Mountains tend to be the most economically free. States in the Northeast tend to be the least free. (New York has ranked dead last since 1999.)

But it's alright California, if the Axis of Taxes take over the country, the rest of the US will be just as miserable as you are.

Biden Bans Philly Station

Thought of the Day

From David Warren on The Messiah............

A man (Obama) who, should he win the election and serve one term, will have been President of the United States longer than he has held any steady job.

Is the national media committing suicide?

A journalist on the media's infatuation with The Messiah....

If the current polls are correct, we are about to elect as president of the United States a man who is essentially a cipher, who has left almost no paper trail, seems to have few friends (that at least will talk) and has entire years missing out of his biography.

That isn't Sen. Obama's fault: His job is to put his best face forward. No, it is the traditional media's fault, for it alone (unlike the alternative media) has had the resources to cover this story properly, and has systematically refused to do so.

Why, for example to quote the lawyer for Republican presidential nominee Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., haven't we seen an interview with Sen. Obama's grad school drug dealer -- when we know all about Mrs. McCain's addiction? Are Bill Ayers and Tony Rezko that hard to interview? All those phony voter registrations that hard to scrutinize? And why are Sen. Biden's endless gaffes almost always covered up, or rationalized, by the traditional media?

The absolute nadir (though I hate to commit to that, as we still have two weeks before the election) came with Joe the Plumber.

Middle America, even when they didn't agree with Joe, looked on in horror as the press took apart the private life of an average person who had the temerity to ask a tough question of a presidential candidate. So much for the standing up for the little man. So much for speaking truth to power. So much for comforting the afflicted and afflicting the comfortable, and all of those other catchphrases we journalists used to believe we lived by.

I learned a long time ago that when people or institutions begin to behave in a matter that seems to be entirely against their own interests, it's because we don't understand what their motives really are. It would seem that by so exposing their biases and betting everything on one candidate over another, the traditional media is trying to commit suicide -- especially when, given our currently volatile world and economy, the chances of a successful Obama presidency, indeed any presidency, is probably less than 50/50.

The Obama effect

A good piece theorizing why independents will break to McCain.

Some point to a "Bradley effect" suggesting that voters are hiding their true feelings from pollsters because of Obama's race, while others say the Bradley effect either never existed or no longer exists. People who think there is a Bradley effect believe that the substantial majority of undecideds are likely to vote for McCain, enabling him to close some of the gap.

McCain should win a larger share of undecided voters than Obama, but it has little to do with race.

With Obama outspending McCain by upwards of 4 to 1, getting enormous traction with newspaper editorial boards, generating the enthusiasm to bring out crowds measured in the tens of thousands, and with Palin treated as more of a punch line than a candidate by the press--it seems likely that if voters are not ready to tell a pollster that they are with Obama, they are unlikely to get there.

But the phenomenon of undecided voters' breaking for McCain need not be called the "Bradley effect." Call it the "Bloomberg effect"--where after $100 million of spending, his mayoral challenger was able to capture essentially all of the 10 point undecided vote. Or call it the "Clinton effect"--where almost all the undecided vote swung away from the popular incumbent and went to Bob Dole. Or call it the "Reagan effect" where even during the Republican 1980 primaries, voters were apparently reluctant to say they were going to vote for the "elderly washed up actor" and he got the preponderance of the undecided vote.

They all amount to essentially the same pattern. Call it "the Social Effect." Where there is a perception that there is a "socially acceptable" choice, respondents who do not articulate it, are likely not to agree with it. Are they lying? Or just genuinely torn about taking that route or another? I am not going to psychoanalyze what is going on in their heads, but in the end, the pattern tends to be that those undecided voters vote against that "socially acceptable" choice.

I would add a couple of things to his theory. Let's face it, outside of Reagan, republicans have not exactly had some of the most electrifying nominees for, say, the past 40 years.

With that said, let's take McCain in 2008. Most die hard republicans hate McCain because, well, he's a democrat. I wouldn't be surprised if a number of republicans, when polled, said they are undecided waiting to see McCain's next move and/or to show their disapproval of his past sins.

As a result, there's bound to be a flirtation with polling for another candidate or as "undecided". But when push comes to shove and the race gets serious, people start to migrate to the serious candidate; in this case McCain.

On the flip side, democrats have a bad case of Bush Derangement Syndrome. They have absolutely no indecision about the candidate who is not Bush and the polling reflects that.

I believe it's why you see democrats always tracking big in the summer and republicans always closing well.

I could be wrong but the fact that there hasn't been a democrat get 51% of the vote since LBJ in 1964 tells me I'm on the right track.

He's just a neighbor, a guy I know, etc.

Obama redistribution of wealth again....

And the media still loves this guy....

So the Obama campaign pulls interviews from reporters who finally ask the tough questions.

Obama himself hasn't given a press conference but subjects himself to the hardball questions of one Mario Lopez of Extra....

From Jake Tapper

Sen. Barack Obama, D-Ill., said that as president he would hold regular press conferences and "not just call on my four favorite reporters."

But the Democratic presidential nominee hasn't held a full press conference -- submitting himself to more than a handful of questions from his whole press corps -- in more than a month, since Sept. 24, 2008, in Clearwater, Fla.

The candidate often bemoans the media asking silly and superficial questions. The media isn't focused on the important issues facing the nation, he complains.

On Saturday in Nevada, Obama sat for an exclusive interview with Mario Lopez, the actor who played "A.C. Slater" on "Saved by the Bell," to air on the TV show "EXTRA!"

The difference between the Maverick and The Messiah

Probably nothing speaks to the differences between McCain and Obama better than this passage...

McCain believes in protecting and defending America as it is. Obama tells the world he is ashamed of America and wants to change it into something else. McCain stands for American exceptionalism, the belief that American values are superior to tyrannies. Obama stands for the expiation of America’s original sin in oppressing black people, the third world and the poor.

Barack Obama and Raila Odinga

Life in Obamaville

So how will the liberal policies of the Axis of Taxes (Obama, Pelosi, Reid) impact the US.....

The Obama worldview accepts and condones Bill Ayers, ACORN, Rashid Khalidi, Jeremiah Wright, and Raila Odinga, to mention only a few out of the menagerie that Obama has presented us. (Isn't strange how liberal leaders always seem to be leading around a carnival sideshow? Think of FDR's crew -= Howe, Hopkins, White, Tugwell, Stettinius, Hiss, Wallace, to mention only a few. Then move onto the Carter clan. Then Bill Clinton's admiration society. And we're supposed to disdain Sarah Plain?) When you pull that lever, you're also pulling it for them -- there's no way to deny it, the entanglement is simply too great.

And you're pulling it for something else as well.

Over the past fifty years, something on the order of a half-million Americans -- that is to say 500,000 of our friends and neighbors -- have been killed by liberal policies. This is not hyperbole, this is not exaggeration; it is a cold statement of fact. By my own calculations, up to 260,000 people died prematurely due to the criminal justice "reform" of the 50s and 60s. Studies have shown that up to 121,000 died thanks to the CAFE standards mandating gasoline miles-per-gallon for cars, and as of last year, trucks as well. Several thousand children have been killed after falling into the hands of various state child "protective" agencies. Thousands have fallen victim to assorted environmental regulations. And we could go on to FDA drug regulations, AIDS policy, immigration policy to the point of delirium. Throwing in DDT and various foreign policy fiascos raises the numbers by several orders of magnitude. We'll put abortion aside for the moment.

I am Bill

In response to the republican's "I am Joe" theme, Iowahawk has incorporated the fairness doctrine and done an "I am Bill" piece.

Excerpt

I AM BILL. I am the everyday forgotten little guy in your neighborhood, the quiet anarcho-syndicalist family man who gets up early and punches the clock at the local state university, writing the manifestos and polemics and grant proposals that keep America humming. I'm just doing my job, and all I ask in return is a little respect. And tenure. And Chicago Citizen of the Year awards. And two graduate assistants to grade exams for Practicum in Imperialist Racist Hegemony 311, because I'm teaching two sections this semester. Also, a sabbatical to Italy next summer would be nice.

I AM BILL. I grew up in a simple little gated community just like yours, with white picket fences and where all the aux pairs and gardeners know your name. When my dad came home from a hard day's work as a CEO, he was never too tired to help me with my homework or tousle my hair for winning the Lake Forest Academy essay contest on Hegelian Dialectics. Yes, he was a simpleminded bourgeois technocrat of the capitalist war machine, but he made sure I got the tuition and tutors and sailing lessons and allowance I needed to make it on my own. I wish he was still alive so I could tell him how much I really planned to kill him last.

I AM BILL. I work with my hands, grizzled and calloused from years on a non-ergonomic keyboard. Maybe I don't know pipe wrenches, but I know pipe bombs, and I've built them right there in my communal kitchen and I've watched with pride as they've offed a couple of pigs. Sure, maybe I've made a few mistakes with wiring or detonator timing and it ends up killing a couple of comrades. But you know what? I get up, dust myself off, and get right back to the drawing board. Because when it comes to international Maoist revolution, quitters never win and winners never quit.

The Chicken button

The party of fair elections

From the NY Post....

Thirteen campaign workers for Barack Obama yesterday yanked their voter registrations and ballots in Ohio after being warned by a prosecutor that temporary residents can't vote in the battleground state.

A dozen staffers - including Obama Ohio spokeswoman Olivia Alair and James Cadogan, who recently joined Team Obama - signed a form letter asking the Franklin County elections board to pull their names from the rolls.

The letter - a copy of which was obtained by palestra.net, a Fox News affiliate - came a day after prosecutor Ron O'Brien publicly urged out-of-state campaign workers for both Obama and John McCain to "examine your conscience" before the elections board beings begins opening absentee ballots today.

Earlier in the week, O'Brien spoke with lawyers for both camps and urged them to make sure their staffs met permanent-residency rules, or face possible felony charges.

Also pulling his ballot yesterday was Hofstra University grad Jake Smith, an Obama volunteer who had voted in Knox County, Ohio.

On Thursday, O'Brien cut a deal with 13 out-of-staters, including four from New York, who tossed out their already-cast ballots and admitted they didn't meet residency requirements.

I find a certain irony that few of the liberal Ohio blogs find this to be a problem.

I guess it's not a problem when it's your team committing felonies.

Life in "Progress" City

So if "progressives" are better at running government, why is it that everything they run is a cesspool?

Take the city of Chicago; where the US Marshalls, the FBI and a pack of bloodhounds couldn't find a republican.

How's life in this bubbling bastion of "progressive" policies? Ask Jennifer Hudson's mother, who was gunned down last night, the 426th homicide this year, more then soldiers killed in Iraq.

Chicago is the Second City in nickname and the third in population, but when it comes to murder, the city has the dubious distinction of being second to no city in America.

As CBS 2's Mike Puccinelli reports, the Chicago Sun-Times pointed out on Friday that Chicago has seen 426 homicides this year through Tuesday, compared with 417 in New York and 302 in Los Angeles.

At the end of 1998, Chicago made international headlines as the U.S. "murder capital" after surpassing New York's homicide totals for the first time ever. Chicago shed that dubious distinction when murders plummeted over the last decade.

There are more than 8 million people in New York, compared to slightly under 3 million in Chicago. The population of Los Angeles exceeds that of Chicago by more than 800,000.

Murder is also up, at a lower rate, in New York.

The alarming statistics were expected to come up on Friday when Police Supt. Jody Weis once again appeared before the City Council to address a crime rate that many believe has spun out of control. He appeared at a City Council budget hearing, which began at 10 a.m.

What the hell is so "progressive" about being murdered?

Just think if we get all these Chicago pols in Washington the whole country will run just as nicely as the "Second City".

Culture of corruption - Teamster style

Once again, the only media outlets who seem to want to vet out political campaign are foreign.

From the Canadian Free Press......

The Wall Street Journal recently reported that last summer, Illinois Senator Barack Obama told officials in the Teamsters union that he favored ending the Independent Review Board (IRB) that was created in 1989 by the federal government to rid the union of organized crime.

Tommy Vietor, a spokesman for Obama, confirmed the story, saying that the candidate believed that the IRB had “run its course” because “organized crime influence in the union has drastically declined.”

The Teamsters subsequently endorsed Obama for president, in late February.
Obama and the Teamsters bristled at suggestions that any deal was made.

The Obama campaign also circulated a tape of a speech that Senator Hillary Clinton made last March to the Teamsters saying “at some point the past has to be opened,” but Clinton’s statement, like those made by Senator John Kerry in 2004, stopped well short of committing her to end oversight of the Teamsters.

“So what do you expect from a Chicago politician,” quips former NYPD detective Mike Snipes who investigated organized crime in the 1970s.

“Obama wants to use the Teamsters as his foot-soldiers to get out the vote. The Teamsters want Obama to call off the watchdogs so they can return to their cozy relationship with organized crime,” said the decorated detective.

Why is Ms. Ross in the news?

A 29-year-old mother of seven from Winton Hills is facing 10 years in prison after being convicted of endangering children. Kena Ross handcuffed her young children because she was afraid they would eat all of the food in the house. The abuse was discovered after Ross and her boyfriend Christopher Gray took Ross's 4-year-old son to the hospital two weeks after he suffered a bad burn to his hand.

Doctors noticed the cuff marks on the boy's wrist and notified police.

What none of the news services wanted to mention was that Ms. Ross had six children with a seventh on the way ( as I heard on WLW friday night )..... at 29 YEARS OLD......

So I guess I should have some compassion for a person who screwed up and made the mistake of having an unplanned pregnancy. (1)
