So, you’ve stumbled onto my humble little blog. Perhaps you are a Millenial wondering why most of your friends aren’t fully employed. Or wondering why ObamaKare is being shoved down your throat. Or why your generation is on the hook for a national debt that stands at $17 $18 Trillion and counting. Maybe you are scratching your head wondering why your President thinks Global Warming the weather is more worrisome than Islamic Terror. And perhaps you’ve started to become aware there might be something the corrupt and biased lame stream media isn’t telling you. The answer, to these and other existential questions, is ... the Left - specifically, the modern American Progressive. Think of this site as a portal to a richer understanding of this answer, a portal purposely designed with a consciously cock-eyed bent to keep it entertaining. Because the First Amendment is forever and the Internet never forgets. (Plus you better figure out FICA isn't the name of a Swedish bikini model, before she eats your entire paycheck.)

How to use the portal? You could dive into my archive*. I was most active here 2010-2012, but that matters not. How many times do I need to demonstrate the central point? To wit, the political / ideological Left is a menace to the constitutional republic and must be resisted lest the American experiment in liberty devolve into socialist dystopia. If it's the more pointed hand-to-hand combat of the comment board that whets your appetite, click the 'My Disqus Comments' widget. I continue to visit that world from time to time as a light diversion. Or you could browse through my blog roll. It's a very representative collection of center-right blogs, though hardly exhaustive. I can't do the political / ideology thing 24x7, and you probably can't either. Leave that to the hysterical, talking point chanting, mob agitating, race baiting, election stealing, gaia worshiping, straw man torching, Islamic Terrorist appeasing, organized Left (aka OFA, MSNBC, UAW, SEIU, Think Progress, Media Matters, most of legacy media, the politically correct faculty lounge, anybody who belonged to Journolist, anybody connected to Occupy Wall Street, anything funded by George Soros or Tom Steyer, their paid Internet trolls, and the rest of the usual Team Leftie suspects).

My Congressman is Desperate








If there is one individual who can lay claim to being THE emblem of the 2008 Democrat freshman class, swept in on the coattails of Barack Hussein Obama’s hopey-changey campaign fraud, it would have to be the bats**t crazy Alan Grayson (FL-8). Alan Grayson may be the only congressman in American history to inspire a constituent to launch a website called simply MyCongressmanIsNuts.Com.

According to polling data, the nut job Grayson is on track to be handed the coveted “one and done” award in his 2010 re-election bid. His electoral misfortune may be due to his Republican opponent, Daniel Webster, having the same name as a great 19th American statesman. Or maybe it’s due to the nut job showing an embarrassingly desperate level of, well, desperation, by airing an outrageous negative political ad labeling his Republican opponent as ‘Taliban’. I tend to believe it’s the latter. There are corollaries to point to.

==

Take for example, my congressional district, Virginia’s 11th. I blogged about this race in my April 30th and June 10th posts. In the latter post, I labeled my freshman incumbent Democrat Gerry Connolly as a Jihadi huggin’, deficit spendin’, constituent assaultin’ Progressive sack o’ excrement. With supporting evidence on the links.

While Connolly may not be as entertainingly nuts as Grayson – he represents perhaps an even more existential danger to the republic. Gerry Connolly is the archetype for the bloodless technocrat.

And he positively reeks of desperation at the prospect of receiving his richly deserved “one and done” award. I’m on the email list for his Republican opponent, Keith Fimian. The other day I received this little gem in my humble little inbox.












Well, I don’t know about you – but when the Daily Caller purchased KeithOlbermann.Com, I thought it was funny. But when a bloodless technocrat who aspires to micromanage my life uses the same tactic, it pisses me off.

Amazingly, Connolly was actually censured by the reliably liberal rag the Washington Post for his desperate campaign tactics.

This same local rag of mine, which I stopped having delivered years ago, reported on Fimian’s effective response.

Doubly amazingly, WaPo also exposed an example of Connolly’s desperate behavior for anyone to read.

But, in the end, of course, nothing can stop WaPo from endorsing the donkey. No matter what.

==

So, back to the theme of this post. I don’t have to look as far away as Florida to find more desperate Democrats. Jim Moran in my next door district (Virginia’s 8th) has seemingly been in congress for freakin’ ever. The line between VA-11 and VA-8 is literally one block from the house I now own. Moran (or ‘Maroon’, as he’s known under my roof) was in fact my representative (so to speak) in the house I owned before this one. Maroon is also a technocrat type, but not the bloodless kind - more the bloodshot Kennedy kind.

He’s feeling the pressure from his Republican opponent, Patrick Murray, who is a retired Army Colonel. This pressure has dragged the truth out of Maroon – that like any Progressive pseudo-intellectual, the only service he values is the kind that throws other people’s money down social welfare rat holes.

==

And in the district I can see with my own eyes, across the Potomac River, by walking perhaps a quarter mile – the number two House Democrat himself, Steny Hoyer (MD-5), actually knuckle-punched his Republican opponent, Charles Lollar.

'Desperate' and 'juvenile' are the first two words that come to mind for me. How about you?  If the entrenched incumbent wins MD-5, I see many future posts referring to 'Knuckles' Hoyer.

==

The trend is undeniable. Liberal Democrats all over the nation are behaving like animals cornered. They have finally awoken to the fact we are rejecting their governance, and since the power to exercise governance is everything they covet, they are flailing wildly in every direction in an epic demonstration of desperation.

The examples abound. With apologies to the master blogger Matt Drudge, I shall now momentarily adopt his simple style of headlined links to close the argument.

2010 is the first year I’ve been a two yard sign guy. Desperate measures for desperate times.



Update 10/27

My Congressman is still despicably desperate.  Gerry Connolly still running on lies and half (at best) truths - so obnoxious that not even WaPo can ignore them.  Think this is enough for WaPo to withdraw its' endorsement?  Naaaaaaaaaaah.

Washington Post Fact Check: The newest Connolly attack

By Paige Winfield Cunningham

The newest attack ad against Republican Keith Fimian over the home inspection company he co-founded could use some inspection itself.

The company, U.S. Inspect, is once again being turned into a campaign weapon by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee as the 11th Congressional District race enters its final week. Rep. Gerry Connolly (D) already cited a $16,000 federal tax lien against the company during his 2008 race against Fimian; now, it's part of a new ad launched by the DCCC on Connolly's behalf.

The problem is, U.S. Inspect is a successful business. It has an A-plus rating from the Better Business Bureau. It holds dozens of patent claims. And the lien, while undoubtedly embarrassing to Fimian, has since been released.

It's easy to debunk some of the other claims in the new ad -- such as an accusation that U.S. Inspect's corporate status was revoked by the Arkansas secretary of state. I'm not sure where the DCCC got that information, because a quick call to the Arkansas office revealed that the company withdrew its status back in 2003 -- voluntarily.

And while the ad is correct that Fimian signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge authored by Americans for Tax Reform, the pledge doesn't mention anything about corporations outsourcing jobs, as the ad suggests. In fact, it just says the signer agrees to oppose raising marginal income tax rates and reducing or eliminating deductions or credits.

Given how much it's stretching things there, the DCCC might just as well have claimed that Fimian signed a pledge supporting corporations that exploit workers in developing countries.

Whether or not other of the ad's claims regarding lawsuits and liens carry water, there is some truth slipped in: Fimian's former business partner did call his honesty into question and wrote that his campaign is "built upon a fraud."

Still, I wonder just how far bad feeling over an apparent business falling-out is going to get Connolly and the DCCC.

Update 10/31

Another Northern Virginia blogger detects the smell of desperation on Gerry Connolly. 

And, as if the 100% Pelosi Index were not enough, Connolly is recognized by the MSM as holding the key to her continuing reign as House Nanny.

  1. You have to admit, the lefties have provided some comic relief during this election cycle.

  2. @Matt: Ah, but the madness of Lefties is an endless source of entertainment. The Leftie only becomes dangerous when the rest of us let down our guard and allow them to seize the levers of power, a point the Black Conservative Thomas Sowell has made eloquently.

  3. Both Grayson and the "banking queen" are avowed members of the democratic socialists of America. So is the commie who "represents" me (Cummings).
    In fact, there are at least 70 of them!
