Acorns and Lies

Just keeping up with things:

Item 1: ACORN DOGS

Bob stresses that these people are American heroes. Here is an article, if you have been too busy to keep up. You can see why papers are covering this story.

For more than a year I hyperventilated about a particular community organizer for ACORN and what that meant. In return, I mostly heard crickets.

Now, the nation is rubbing its eyes and wondering if it missed something during a year long coma - ACORN is a psychotic organization bent on some low-level notion of socialism and amorality. They act in secret to control the normal people who are busy at work. Of course, they are operatives - so it is time to find out who is behind the left's strategy.

As I also repeated, this is the group Mr. Obama went to work for rather than try to keep a real job as a lawyer. Now you know who a community organizer works for.

ACORN is also the group Mr. Obama engaged to do the census. Most people don't care much about the census, but it is a critical battleground for taking your money and increasing control over the population. If you don't know how, read up. Its your life.

Congress has dumped money all over ACORN in gratitude for the wonderful election fraud, until last week. The free money has stopped.

Now, until ACORN will have to morph, as the worms are squirming about in the sunlight, before sneaking back into the banquet. That will take time, the most critical element in this counter revolution. There is little time to take back the government and there is little time for the government to intervene to shut off critics. The game clock is under two minutes.

Bob pointed out how clever the two were. They released one video tape and after being attacked, which is the stated reaction of the White House, as showing nothing but a few bad officials, they released another one which took place in New York City. I hear there is, at least, one more. I guess these are heroes.

I haven't followed the story much. Nothing new for me, here, but it is important to recognize that a twenty year old just pulled a leg out from a very unstable and tippy platform. It was the leg that got Mr. Obama elected, his brown shirts, his former employer. ACORN was about to defraud the nation, again, by taking the census in its own scrutable style.

The young journalists, a term that used to apply to network news readers, have work that is not over, the media's attention is awakening, and, most importantly, thousands of people now realize they can make a video and put in on YouTube - who needs the ministers of propaganda in the "media?" As you probably saw, a new poll shows 80% of American disbelieve the major news outlets.

For that matter, who needs the talking heads of the right? There is a grass roots upheaval taking place, look at the bi-partisan protesters in Washington D.C. last weekend. bob mentioned that Rush Limbaugh will spend the week trying to pull back listeners from killing off Republicans as well as Democrats in office.

Like they say: lead, follow, or get out of the way.

There is no knocking the ACORN videos by sniffing at Internet news. The Internet is a dagger, the one not under control, aimed at the leftist movement, which means the White House will go after it, but there is little time for that. In addition, there are too many crises to control and PR speeches from the leader just don't work.

Best of all, the White House is surrounded by wildfires and the Saul Alinsky method to attack the system doesn't work when you are the system. Indeed, it is the young couple who are the community activists, part of thousands, who are engaged in the Alinsky method of daily confrontation. The center cannot hold.

Unlike Mr. Bush, who just let the left vent and went about his business and was hammered by the media and politicians, Mr. Obama keeps shoving himself onto TV to tell us what he wants. He doesn't seem to work, just give talks and speeches. He is over-exposed which means he is exposing who he is.

Item 2: Lies

The excerpt below is from examiner.com/Albany, which I can't figure out at all. It looks like a news aggregator (like a paper, I guess) with local hooks and has adds.

Joe Wilson was sitting in the well of Congress last week and piped up: "You lie!" when Mr. Obama said illegal aliens would not get medical coverage. There are two aspects to this.

First, Joe was a little stressed out, trying to read the bills flying by, or was looking at the House of Commons on T.V. where all sorts of hooting goes on. [Watch it, great stuff. Leaders have to know what they are talking about and respond with facts, as well as barbs. Could you imagine Nancy Pelosi having to react to questions and laughing?] Anyway, Joe apologized for speaking out during a speech; it is not traditional in the U.S. He did not apologize, however, for what he said, I guess he read the proposed bill.

Second, Joe was right. Nancy and friends were all set to attack Joe, you know - kill any opponent as a strategy, but it seems he was right. There was a "loophole" that did provide coverage. Yeah, a loophole.

The news cycles are moving faster and Joe is becoming old news, so the whole "Let's hang Judge Bork" game has become irrelevant.

Perhaps, I am too harsh; it is likely that Mr. Obama still hasn't read any bill. He may be ignorant more than a liar. Take your pick.

In the meantime, the Democrats have been endlessly repeating the notion that someone said Mr Obama is a liar. They object to the place and time, not the content. This is not smart.

The philosophical question remains: was Mr. Obama's comment a lie or stupidity? There is meaning to the answer.

Democrats' planned public humiliation of Representative Joe Wilson could backfire badly

I sometimes wonder if liberals were born with a genetic predisposition to overreach.

A gleeful and malevolent Nancy Pelosi, not satisfied with his previous expression of remorse, is attempting to humiliate and publicly rebuke Representative Joe Wilson by putting him in the well of the House of Representatives and forcing him to recant his blasphemous words before that legislative body.

Yet, whose ox will be gored by such an action? Republicans? Representative Joe Wilson?

Hardly…

Wilson has already apologized to President Obama for his indecorous comment, "You lie!" lduring Obama's health care speech last Wednesday to a joint session of Congress. It is interesting to note, that subsequent to Wilson's comment, the White House admitted that there was a loophole in the existing proposed bills that would have allowed illegal immigrants to avail themselves of the cooperative aspect of the health care exchange. The Senate closed the loophole shortly thereafter.

Furthermore, House Republicans tried twice to amend the existing proposed bill that would have included simple language to the effect that illegal immigrants would be ineligible to receive health care benefits; twice the Democrats voted the amendment down. Why?....
