Spinning a National tragedy into a campaign kick-off

For the Obamacrats to turn a memorial for the victims of this national tragedy into a BO campaign kickoff is even more reprehensible (if such a thing is possible) than the immediate politicizing of the tragedy before the victims’ families or America had even begun to absorb the shock and before the legal investigation had even begun.

Have you seen the 13,000 Tee-shirts that were waiting for the mourners on their arrival? The TV- Trons also told the audience when to appaud. To their credit, the producers didn't ask for the cheers and whistles that accompanied the rent-a-mourners.

Also thoroughly disgusting were the not-so-subtle implications from BO (in his speech) and several Obamacrat Congress critters (in their reported remarks) that they somehow played some role in Congresswoman Giffords opening her eyes on Wednesday afternoon before the memorial service (my understanding is that this was not the first time she had opened her eyes, as BO and the others incorrectly stated).

Is it not more likely that this woman’s own enormous strength, plus the quick actions of her intern in the immediate aftermath, plus outstanding medical care really are responsible for her, thankfully, amazing recovery progress to date? Are Obamacrats all really so delusional (or egomaniacal, or desperately politically self-serving) as to believe and try to convince us that they now, suddenly, have  superhuman powers?! Is BO’s messianic complex infecting more and more Obamacrat officeholders? I almost feel as though I’m watching some far more decadent, far sadder, far sicker rendition of “Chicago,” as the leftist political pundits and media continue to try using this unspeakable tragedy as some sort of BO/Obamacrat comeback.

The left has conveniently forgotten the misogynistic, racist, homophobic,anti-semitic, anti-American hate speech that spewed from the pulpit of the Jeremiah Wright TUCC where BO and MO sat and listened and contributed monetarily for 20+ years, even taking their two children there; forgotten that Wright’s “Trumpet” church magazine honored known misogynist/homophobe/anti-semite Louis Farrakhan and reprinted the hate- and violence-filled, anti-semitic Hamas manifesto. Conveniently forgotten are the misogyistic attacks against Hillary Clinton during the 2008 primary and against Sarah Palin during the 2008 general campaign from the leftist political pundits and media, for which BO and his minions (e.g. JayZ “99 Problems and a Bitch Ain’t One”; BO campaign t-shirts “Bro’s B4 Ho’s”) set the woman-debasing, woman-hating tone. Conveniently forgotten are BO’s flipping off Hillary following their last televised debate during the primary, his “lipstick on a pig” remark about Palin, his calling a woman reporter “sweetie,” his remark about  Hillary “periodically, when she’s feeling down,” and David Letterman’s pedophilic sick so-called joke about then-14-year-old Willow Palin being raped/knocked up in the stands while watching a NY baseball game, and on and on.

Yet now, suddenly, in the wake of this unspeakable national tragedy brought about by a profoundly disturbed young man apparently incited more by his own sickness than by any political philosophy, the leftists wish to convince us they should be viewed as the arbiters of ‘more civil political discourse’? It is not our ‘national political discourse’ that is the problem. That has always, historically, been more or less ‘heated,’ and rightfully so when done within the spirit of free speech and debate of ideas and opinions.

You can bet by tomorrow they will be right back at it and at Palin while Pelosi continues her prattle  over and over again as if it were true, that the Left has been hard at work all along "for the American people" while the Right has been stalling and blocking their efforts.

My favorite complaint coming from the left is how the right is wasting time ( a whole 3 weeks already lost) on health care reform instead of creating jobs... . And what did the left (with control of the WH and congress) spend their first 2 years doing ?

    WHY A CONVENTION OF STATES?

    Simple: to bring power back to the states and the people, where it belongs. Unelected bureaucrats in Washington, D.C. shouldn’t be allowed to make sweeping decisions that impact millions of Americans. But right now, they do. So it all boils down to one question: Who do you think should decide what’s best for you and your family? You, or the feds? We’d vote for the American people every single time.
