Check Out the Economics Discussion Page
Jan 17th
I’ve created an economics discussion page on wordpress.com. I was going to initially put it on here, but I wanted the URL to reflect the theme and separate it a bit from TheBlueSite content.
Check it out if you’re interested in learning about economics and discussing it in order to get a better grasp on it. I’m currently studying economics at Western Kentucky University with plans to get a BA in econ and a BA in film production. Might then proceed into the econ masters program or perhaps an MBA. Not really sure just yet. So, I’m trying to gather any other econ students and maybe we can ask questions, pose problems, etc to learn more than we would in classes alone.
Check it out if you get a chance, tell me what you think…
Blowback Against Obama for His Attack on Cambridge Police
Jul 24th
Beautiful. I have a feeling America is waking up to the radical that is Barack Obama. His offensive statements attacking the Cambridge officers who arrested Henry Louis Gates as acting “stupidly” in this matter needed a swift and loud response.
Racial demagogues like Gates and Obama (who, as you will recall, spent 20 years in a radical, racist, anti-american church) need to get off the national stage now, and they need to stay off for good.
Barack Obama Should Have Had the Decency to Reject Notre Dame’s Speech Offer
May 17th
Barack Obama- the one thing people often say about him, seeminly more than anything else, is that he’s a mystery. You never know where he truly stands on many issues. He seems to take the position that stands to gain him more power in his very very short pursuit of the highest office in the land. This is why people from both sides of the aisle sometimes say they like him- it’s so easy to project onto him your own personal views, mainly because he’s seemingly so wishy washy on his own views, and he often refuses to take a firm stance on much of anything.
We do, however, know where Obama stands on abortion. He is radically pro-abortion, despite his insistence that we have fewer of them. In his time in the IL State Senate, we know he voted “present” several times on state bills to help infants born alive after botched abortions. Infanticide is a very radical stance, even among most liberals, but Obama had no problem, again refusing to take a firm stance with a vote. We know that his first couple of acts as president reversed federal rules in place to limit abortions and the use of stem cell lines. Thanks to Obama, your tax money goes to fund abortions overseas now, a rule put into place under George W Bush.
Obama’s radical stance on abortion is why he should have rejected Notre Dame’s offer for him to be their commencement speaker. Notre Dame is arguably the most important Catholic institution in the West. It’s a sacred place for the Catholic Church, and with Obama’s background on abortion, he should have had the decency to politely decline the offer to speak. His address to the students was a slap in the face to Catholics across the nation. Notre Dame’s administration should also be ashamed for its actions in this whole ordeal. Honoring a man whose views contradict basic Catholic teachings with an honorary degree from the nation’s premiere Catholic institution is a disgrace. It shows that some among the university’s administration easily toss basic doctrinal issues aside. One has to wonder what other core beliefs Notre Dame will ignore for political points?
The fact that many of the students chanted, “yes we can” is, in itself, a disgrace to the university as well. Apparently, young people are out to prove the stereotype- to hell with rules, I’ll make them up as I go along. Forget what the Bible teaches, we can ignore the parts we don’t like as long as it makes us feel good. This do-whatever attitude is at the root of our nation’s moral breakdown. Embracing a president whose values completely contradict the very basic values that all life is sacred will, no doubt, lead to the downfall of Notre Dame as a premiere Catholic institution, and as well it should. When even many of the administrators toss aside doctrine on a whim, you know there are serious foundational problems. Obama should have had the decency to thank Notre Dame for its offer and politely said, “no.” Unfortunately, that’s just not the kind of man our new president is.
Lowlife Olbermann: McCain is to Blame for Idiot Who Claimed Attack from Obama Supporter
Oct 24th
Keith Olbermann. It’s apparent that journalism as an institution is a joke when anyone allows this guy to get on TV at all, let alone pose as a journalist, when he’s nothing but a deranged hate-filled liberal attack dog with no sense of right and wrong, the truth or blatant lies. Tonight, he carried on his tradition of just basically being a scumbag by attacking the McCain campaign as racist. Yes, folks, a liberal attacked McCain as racist, despite the fact that he’s never said or done anything even remotely racist in his life, let alone this particular campaign.
A McCain supporter who campaigned for the senator created a hoax saying that she was attacked by an Obama supporter for having a McCain bumper sticker on her car. Most of the blogs I read the story on seemed to think there was something fishy about the story from the start, and today she admitted she made the whole thing up and claimed she had mental problems. Olbermann ”reported” this news…but then somehow turned it into a racial issue. The woman claimed it was a black man who attacked her and scarred her face with a knife by drawing a “B” for Barack. I’m not really sure how saying it was a black man who did the attack is racist in any way whatsoever. I assure you all, creating a hoax and having the main player in the story a black man is in no way racist.
Somehow, this event leads Olbermann to the onscreen graphic, “McFraud”, as if somehow McCain perpetrated the act.
He claimed that McCain would somehow be linked to race-baiting because of this lone loon. Also not sure how that works, but whatever…it’s Olbermann’s small-brained world we’re talking about here, so we should all be prepared for things not to make any sense.
He asked his guest isn’t the McCain campaign directly responsible for a culture that encourages the simple dirty trick to outright fraud in which you get arrested and perp-walked? Now, this is a ridiculous question that the guest (whoever this guy is) answers with ’oh golly gee, I don’t really know.’ You dont know?! How on earth is anyone from the McCain camp responsible in any way, let alone directly, for a lone loon who claims to have mental problems?!
Olbermann is always out of his mind, but sometimes you’ve just gotta wonder if he’s working on a full load upstairs, because this guy is flippin’ crazy. Somehow, we live in a world where Obama has direct ties to a terrorist and doesn’t have to answer to any of that, but for some insane reason McCain doesn’t have to just answer for lone loons who claim to support him, but he’s actually directly responsible for the actions of said loons!!
Keith Olbermann, as all rational people already know, is a lowlife piece of garbage. He makes a lot of money peddling hate and spending a lot of his time just telling outright lies to the ignorant MSNBC-consuming audience. The guy is everything that’s wrong with this country and bad people in general. His attacks on McCain are about as lame as he is himself. NBC News, isn’t it time to regain some of the respect you used to have by canning this fool immediately? I have a feeling the long downard spiral at NBC News is to be continued well into the future, and they have only themselves and idiots like Olbermann to blame.
ADDENDUM: I have to say…I’ve seen few on TV as hateful as Olbermann. I watched his show tonight, and he really does come off as a depsicable human being who hates anyone who disagrees with him, hates the world, and hates life.
By ending your show with the phrase of a very respected journalist…well, it just makes you a bigger joke than you were before. To end with the phrase that it’s been 2000 however many days since mission accomplished was declared in Iraq is, well it’s a slap in the face to all the servicemen and women that banner of congratulations was aimed at.
Of course, no one claimed the war was over, and the speech Bush gave at the time was aimed at congratulating the soldiers on the finish to the initial combat operations stage of the war.
What would Olbermann and idiots like him have done? Flown a flag that said “soldiers, go fuck yourselves, don’t dare think you deserve a pat on the back for anything, let alone the defeat of the regime’s military. If you pricks want an ‘attaboy’ find it elsewhere, this commander in chief has only one message and it’s, ‘eat shit and die.”
Pardon the language, but good God, what sort of moron complains that the government wanted to pat the soldiers on the back for their hard, dangerous, and noble work?!!!! That’s so beyond the pale it reaches into anti-soldier and anti-American territory.
But again, and seriously, do any rational thinking humans take anything this man says seriously, let alone approve of this garbage? NBC News, you guys are out of your minds. You deserve the lost respect and the shit ratings…when true Americans start running things over there, come back to us, until then stay down in the bottom of the pack with idiots like Olbermann and that Fred Savage lookalike whose almost as hate-filled as Olby, Rachel Maddow.
Ann Coulter’s Brilliant Analysis on Obama/Ayers
Oct 23rd
Great stuff.
Coulter makes some fantastic points. Sad to see the way this country is going down the tubes. Terrorists flocking to academia. Obama’s ridiculous excuses regarding Ayers. This is just craziness. The mainstream media in this country is, unfortunately, doing their best to sway an entire election (again) and trying their damndest to destroy the country itself.
Is Obama Incapable of Telling the Truth Regarding Ayers?
Oct 22nd
I’m starting to think that Barack Obama is just a dishonest person. His lies during the campaign thus far have went beyond what we normally see in campaigns (it’s unfortunate that we have to see them at all in any campaign). His bogus claims of living in the same neighborhood as Bill Ayers has been told so many times, I’m wondering if Obama himself is starting to believe the lie.
The Obama camp has gone to attacking a McCain robocall as a “vicious false smear” regarding Obama and Ayers? In this video, what we hear from the robocall, purportedly from the McCain campaign is “hello, I’m calling because you need to know that Barack Obama has worked closely with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers, whose organization bombed the US Capitol, the Pentagon…”
The video from the Obama campaign, as you can see, spells out “FALSE.”
Problem is- that claim is not at all false. It’s 100% true, and with all the facts as we know them, the only way to deny the association is to simply deny reality. Obama did, indeed, work closely with Bill Ayers who was, in fact, a domestic terrorist who was part of a group that bombed the US Capitol and the pentagon. There’s just no denying these facts. Obama worked on 2 separate board with Ayers, he had a campaign even in Ayers’ home, and he wrote the now infamous blurb for Ayers’ book praising the man and his work.
Just as Obama claimed he was clueless to the fact that his preacher (who married him and his wife and baptised his two daughters, and also served as a part of his campaign for president) was an anti-American racist for 20 years (Obama sat in the pews with his eyes and ears covered, we can assume), he also claims he barely knew Ayers. And don’t forget the tired (and lame) like that Ayers did something despicable when poor innocent Barack was only 8 years old. Because, you know that it would be okay to hang out with bin laden in 20 years, and we can argue he did something horrible 20 years ago when so and so was only 8 years old! The claims from the Obama camp are far beyond insane. They’re out of the world crazy…so much so that if anyone besides the black coming of jesus had such associations and came up with such bogus excuses, he’d be tossed from his senate seat, forget any shot at the presidency.
Hell, when you have a scant 143 days of experience and nothing to go on outside of riding the coattails of the mainstream media and praying for white liberal guilt, what other game plan can you possibly come up with?
It takes a shameful person to claim that McCain has played dirty politics, when this campaign has been one of the tamest in recent memory. McCain has gone out of his way to praise Obama as being a good family man who loves his country. Obama and his surrogates, on the other hand, have played the race card this entire campaign, claiming that the GOP and McCain himself would attack Obama for his skin tone, something that McCain never did, nor did he ever get even close to attacking Obama because of his skin tone, his name, or the way he looks.
To attack these factual associations as smears is absurd. Will Obama ever fess up to the fact that he’s hardly the post-partisan he claims to be and admit that he has had a close relationship with Ayers that spans several years? Or will he still claim to be above the dirty politics he himself plays by attacking these calls as “vicious smears”? Mr. Obama, the truth is there for all to see…why is it you keep lying?
Student Bodies/Roundhouse (Video)

I don’t remember this show? Maybe it only aired in Canada?
I do, however, remember this Snick (Saturday Night Nick) classic, Roundhouse. Every Saturday night as a kid…Are You Afraid of the Dark, Roundhouse, and more…
Liberals: Obama’s Smart, He Went to Harvard. George Bush, However, is a Dumb Chimp.
Oct 14th
I’ve heard a lot of Barack worshippers, err I mean supporters, say that he’s a smart guy, and he went to Harvard, so he must be smart. No doubt. Few could disagree with the fact that he’s clearly smart…Harvard certainly isn’t a diploma mill. But, a lot of those same people who adore Obama’s Harvard intellect attack President Bush as the dumbest man alive. Yet, he got an advanced degree at Harvard, and his bachelor’s is from Yale, another school worthy of praise.
I have a strange feeling that most of those who praise Obama for this but attack Bush as clueless don’t see the logical error they make, but they worship The One to begin with, so here’s guessing they’re not all that up-to-date on the issues to begin with. Either that or they hate babies.
America is Lost: The Obama Youth- All Hail Our Messiah
Oct 4th
Socities are ultimately destroyed from within by the populace.
It’s time we stop denying the stunningly obvious fact that this stuff is so far beyond scary that words can hardly describe how insane this country has become over a jr senator who also happens to be the second coming of Jesus Christ, the messiah, the one we’ve been waiting for, the one who will change the world, the savior of mankind, the leader to end all leaders, our permanent god upon high, Barack H. Obama. Yes, folks, we’re ready to follow the one and true god, who pals around with terrorists and anti-american racist pastors. The man who wants to tax us to death and has a fantasy that he can somehow create a free system where all Americans receive healthcare paid for by taxes that don’t exist in an environment where no plan on earth could raise that tax revenue to begin with.
The world has gone insane, and it’s singing “obammmmmaa hallelujah” as it crashes and burns.
There is NO more denying, my friends. The cult of Obama is just that- a cult. A following comprised of millions of people, most of whom are completely ignorant of Obama’s history, his stand on the issues, his basic philosophy…they’re so enthralled with their new messiah that facts don’t matter. All that matters is how he makes them feel. Another man had the same effect on a group of millions in the 1930′s.
More insane lefties warping the minds of children for purposes of propaganda…
Hate-Filled Moron (Wendy Doniger) Attacks Palin as Not Really a Woman
Sep 11th
This woman is out of her flippin’ mind.
Here is some of the most ridiculous stuff:
And as for religion, I’d love to know precisely how the Good Lord conveyed to her so clearly his intention to destroy the environment (global warming, she thinks, is not the work of human hands, so it must be the work of You Know Who), the lives of untold thousands of soldiers and innocent bystanders (He is apparently rooting for this, too, she says), and, incidentally, a lot of polar bears and wolves, not to mention all the people who will be shot with the guns that she thinks other people ought to have. An even wider and more sinister will to impose her religious views on other people surfaced in her determination to legislate against abortion even in cases of rape and in her attempts to ban books, including books on evolution, and to fire the librarian who stood against her.
I will be tossing Newsweek and The Washington Post aside for magazines and newspapers that hire sane writers to editorialize the issues of the day.
They also clearly see no value in fact-based writing, as FactCheck.org blasted the bogus claims of Palin banning books. I guess this blowhard Doniger was too busy proclaiming Palin not a woman for not supporting the murder of babies (feminist monsters think that if you want to save soon-to-be-born babies you’re not a true woman) to check her facts…
She did not demand that books be banned from the Wasilla library. Some of the books on a widely circulated list were not even in print at the time. The librarian has said Palin asked a “What if?” question, but the librarian continued in her job through most of Palin’s first term.
I will fisk completely later on…
