So we have a new President of USA and voila it is a Black looking man, not full black, white mommy, black daddy, called Obama
But we still are not over our simple mindedness and we like a) telegenicity and b) Hollywood story lines, so we may not be racist, but we are still dippy as heck.
We shoulda elected My President Bill Richardson, even though Bill grew a beard later on and then said to be for Obama or somethang and I stopped reading the campaign emails after that.
But it shows that we were not ready to elect a Mexican for President, is what it showed, even though Bill is not from Mexico but was born in the USA, in Boston or somethang, who knows, I have forgotten all this stuff, but I did remember it once. Yeah and his daddy is from Nicaragua and he was raised for a few years in a Mexican country, or a Latin country and then in Boston or near it and married a woman from Boston, who is a very nice person.
So I guess we was not ready to elect a Mexican which was a mistake, not only becoz Bush was already our first Mexican president and he did nothing about solving our relationship with Mexico but also becoz our 2 neighbors, to the north and south, are really much more impactful on our economy in many ways and I have already said we look askance at hombres from the South, but we should also look at Gringos from the Norte, and their economic impact on us may not be completely wholesome which I have said in my other blog.
On the other hand, the hombres from the South have a lotta thangs that they bring already and their land has a lotta bounty that we regularly like and use becoz of its fine weather and fine foods and fine beaches and also its fine oil resources, so we should pay more attention.
Yeah, and barriers have actually been falling quite steadily even across Europe though we are so self centered that we dont wanna admit it or pretend that all Europeans look the same to us, mild and low key and self deprecating, but that too is a mistake. First becoz they are just as Rampaging Lions as our competitors in Asia and Latin America and second becoz the advice they give us may be quite destructive if we think of them as some kind of self deprecating do gooders, which they are not, they have huge egos and they out for themselves, just like everyone on the planet, so there.
And I am really ticked off about this hooked on telegenicity stuff, which we clearly still are, although Barack does not even look handsome to me, he looks like rat weasel who is Acting all the time, especially his Love Scenes with Michelle look like they are Acting. They have it down pat and they may even be Having Sex unlike many other candidates who are too tired, or grumpy or head full of all kinds of conflicted emotions and rage and greed and frustration to make love to their own spouses, but these two look like they know the Age of Snooping is well underway and I think they keep up their Act in the bedroom just as much as in front of the cameras.
The only time I think Michelle is real is with her 2 daughters who are quite sweet and precious, but I think Barry is a fake poo even with them, which is not their fault, but it is him, growing up black with White grandparents, he did not expect to have little black children, but somehow expected white ones to pop out, is what I think, I could be wrong, but thas what I think, he is wondering, whose kids are these.
And if I wanted a Black Man to be President, who I would want is Sean Puffy Combs, or Chris Rock or Snoop Doggy Dog, I feel they have the savvy and smarts to do us right.
I do not feel trust in Barack Obama, even if the world is happy, I think they think they can run us right over and maybe they can, now.
On the other hand, I think Barry is too much attuned to polling and safe story lines and he will choose the line of least resistance, like bombing his way into Pakistan and stuff like that.
And then rely on histrionic speeches to justify himself, just like Bush did.
In fack, I feel very much that he could be a Bushoid leader, not very well grounded in history or foreign affairs, but adored by his base, and relying to histrionicity and Acting to crush any cautious objections and thangs like that, until such time as the situation careens itself off a cliff.
And I think I would have been much happier with Bill Richardson as President and he might have been a better candidate if his wife was Rosie Perez or Huda Kotb or J Lo instead of Boston WASP.
This is the sad pity, certain groups got tuned out becoz the country had just had enough of them, regardless of whether the individual brought somethang to the table or not.
So it is good barriers have fallen, and unlike what we think, barriers are falling everywhere. A small weird looking Jewish guy is President of France and even though Segolene thinks we betrayed her, we didnt, we just wanted the funny looking Jewish guy, even though we knew we might have to huff and puff at him and then the funny looking Jewish guy dropped some barriers along with his trou not for a self deprecating and disciplined and chaste looking wife but a hilarious Super model who has hopped from bed to bed and published herself nekkid and had kids with different people or had kid with a son, whose father she also dated or other tabloid stuff like that.
And we supported a chubby Mommy type in Germany who cooks breakfast for her husband over the rock star looking Schroeder and then a zany leather wearing, motorcycle Mommy from East Germany managed to topple the powers that be of East Germany stodgy hierarchy. Now of course, we stuck with a philandering male in that slot, which may not be the person we wanted, but oy vey, at least we got rid of some stodge.
So I think people voted for cool and Obama won, although I woulda still preferred my Mexican President who knows what a foreign affair is, even if he is too fond of the ladies or whatever, it dont matter to me.
But we will take what we have and overall it is good, but mostly just OK, fine, but huge prollems ahead, like Flight of Capital and Deterioration of Cities and stuff like that, could be looming. Also huge resentment in the Red States and even with a mandate, it would be moronic for Barry to assume he is the President of Everybody, when he is the Blue State President with a lot of wary, watchful Red States.
And like I said, we dont wanna replace King George with Imperial Supreme Leader Barry Obama, that may go over fine with his adoring base, but it aint fine with us and we dont care if we vituperated against or dissed, we used to it, we turned back Noot Gingrich and Rush Limbaww, we turned back Karl Rove and we damn well ready to turn back our own side if they get too nasty or pushy with us.
Plus, there is always Flight of Capital and Flight of Intellect and if ya think ya can run the country better than everyone else, ya might just find yaself doing it and good luck, kapische.
So not ticking off the non adorers will be job 1, and turning back the rot will be job 2 and climbing out of the economic pit will be job 3, not necessarily in that order. Oh and not being a patsy and not being a prick on foreign policy, thas job 4 and 5 respectively, so I think that is plenty for the President Elect to do.

So on the verge of a Ballyhooed Great Global Foreign Tour, Barry Obama's foreign policy creds do not look promising
We dont share anybody's optimism that Barry Obamba is gonna win anything, we still think the White Wassist vote gonna hand it to McLoon.
We happy the media stars all hopping on planes to accompany Obamba and we sure hope everyone stays safe becoz a lot of places they going may not be safe. Including Berlin and the Brandenburg Gate and we already said on MinnieB9 that the Germans who balking at the Brandenburg Gate are looking petty and wassist, excepting Angela Merkel, who looking chubby and jealous that nobody asked her to speak on the National Mall and excepting Erwin Huber, whose only claim to fame is that he defeated the spectacular babe Gabriele Pauli for the leadership of the CSU. Erwin looks like a classic retro doof who wanna know why the black guy should speak at Brandenburg Gate and like we all says, why not.
Soccer fans go there, Bbc goes there, DW goes there, everyone on a soapbox goes there, but Erwin Huber thinks he owns the Brandenburg Gate and that since he defeated Gabriele Pauli, he is a rock star, well, he still looks like white wassist retro dude. What can we say.
Obamba on the other hand looks like a sprout eating dweeb. Dont get us wrong, we nothing against vegetables, that is a whole separate topic on how we are thrilled he eats vegetables and plans to introduce vegetables to the Democratic convention in Denver. This may be the first time the City of Denver has seen so many vegetables foods in one place, just kidding.
But Foreign Policy is a whole nuther thang and we just found out to our hilarity that Solemn Bambi has 300 peeps on his Foreign Policy team.
Yeah and I suspect that he wishes for more grandiosity and grandstanding and less common sense and if the recent past is any indication, his grandiosity will immediately be followed by dancing backward and artifulness and wiggling.
all of which is not promising.
But even more unpromising is his lack of clarity and lack of honesty on Africa.
I dont recall him grandstanding on Kenya riots for instance, when this was one stable and prosperous country and should have been expected to have a routine change of power when the election rolled that way, but instead resulted in carnage.
I dont recall him grandstanding on Zimbabwe.
I dont recall him grandstanding on Mbeki.
I dont recall Jesse Jackson or Eleanor Holmes or John Conyers taking strong stands either.
But now I am concerned they will start taking a stand on Darfur.
We have already been treated to George Clooney and the black actor guy who did the Rwanda movie and Mia Farrow and the irate columnist Kristof from NYT jumping up and down shrieking That's Genocide.
We recognize Genocide quite well and dont wanna be debating it necessarily, but to us it looks like a vicious tribal war. We know what happens in vicious tribal wars and wanna know why the guys who refuse to show up for the peace treaties are given a pass on forcing children to fight in their war and raping, pillaging, arsoning and kidnapping and killing UN and african peacekeepers.
We concerned that between hysterical columnists and shallow celebrities and Obamba's grandiose tendencies, this trend will continue.
We also concerned, he will just lead stand offs against China and Russia, without getting anything done. Sticking a finger in their eye as Maarti Harison and the US and the UK did on Kosovo, just stuck a finger in the Russian eye to get spite on them without solving the geopolitical problem of helping them all get along and preserving the rights of Serbs for their patrimony and ancestral heritage was a stupid and counter productive idea.
Now Africa looks like the same ball game, where Susan Rice, Obamba and a bunch of lefties look like they plan to get all self righteous and grandiose and poke a finger in China's eye to make a point, which they think will be appreciated by Petrobras, the Brazilian big oil company and Exxon and Chevron.
Well lemme tell ya, that it is counter productive as well as misguided, becoz the other side is vicious killers and rapists and becoz China and Russia are very good at sticking a finger back and most of all, becoz it is wrong.
And finally lemme tell ya this, all their grandstanding and ballyhoo is built on the blood of peacekeepers and if the grandstanders dont give a fig about them, lemme tell ya, some folks like us do.
And we will tell the peacekeepers who mostly come from poor countries like India, Pakistan and Bangladesh and work for the equivalent of $1000 a month and get killed and sent home in body bags, becoz grandstanders conveniently ignore the killers on their side, that you are being killed becoz stupid and shallow people prefer to grand stand than solve problems. Your life is worth nothing to them. They have not once come to show you any sympathy. They talk about recruiting 10 000 of you and planting you in the middle of a vicious multi tribal ethnic war becoz they wanna look like righteous heros.
This is tough and you think about it before you volunteer.
Stay home.
Let Barry Obamba and Susan Rice and Kristof figure out their own foreign policy, with or without the 300 member team and in front of the Brandenburg Gate.
Bad foreign policy gets even more people killed. Grandiosity is not a substitute for ending wars.
Bye bye

Now for Double Sure, definitely no releasing delegates by Hillary for Obama
No releasing delegates by Hillary, what the heck are we, Zimbabwe, heck no
Let Barry Obama win the nomination based on the actual vote, that is plenty enough. What the heck is the need for acclamation and unification. He has to win what he has to win. If he cant win the Dems, he certainly cant win Republicans. Let every vote count and count every vote.Besides they are not ***Hillary's delegates*** they are the People's Delegates and the votes said how they should call it at the convention. The idea that Delegates ***belong*** to the candidate is retro, feudal and ridiculous. When it is a small number like Howard Dean or John Edwards, nobody cares much and it is more of a yawn, but this case is an Issue, particularly since throughout the race Obama idiots and thugs kept up a drumbeat for withdrawal and acclamation.What the heck are they so scared of, their Bambi boy cant win. Ya chicken, or what. Win fair and square. Go on. Make it count.Hillary won hers fair and square and was ground down every inch. We want the votes tallied and her name placed in nomination. When Barry's vote count gets to the top, fine, we will applaud. But count every vote and tally all the votes.Stupid asses wanting coronations and acclamations. This is a Democracy people. Start acting like it.

Wherein Barry Obama rolls over like a wuss and General Wesley Clark takes a bullet for the side
I suppose yall know what this is about, apparently Wes Clark was on CBS on Sunday with young Bobby Schieffer, hahahahhaah, I meant, anciently elder Bobby Schieffer, and said that being shot out of a plane does not make anybody better qualified to be a leader and Bobby said, well Barry Obama wasnt shot out of a plane either or something like that.
And I think Wes Clark held his own very well and basically stood up for the Dem side, but Barry Obama totally wussed out. All that lash lowering, mole on the nose showing professorial crap was just a cover for Pure Wuss hood. Barry Obama is a wuss.
Becoz the McCain camp immediately started whining the minute Wes Clark spoke out. They know Wes is gutsy, they know he is Very Muy Smart guy and they know he has been a soldier, a diplomat, a private entrepreneur and a presidential candidate, who had a unique distinction of the grass roots actually fundraising and politicking for him before he even threw his hat in the ring. And even though CQ and people like Chuck Todd, who has now become a big shot, made fun and said Wes Clark is the only one asking if he will run, 30 million dollars or more later, scores of web sites started for him by enthusiastic grass rooters in practically all states, vets, kids, hippies, grandmas and grandpas crowding campaign stops to meet and greet him and multiple vote standings in multiple primaries that well exceeded seasoned politicians like Howard Dean and Joe Lieberman who had been the previous veep standard bearer told us, Wes Clark's supporters that we were right and smug mockers like Chuck Todd were wrong.
Although of course the Washington insiders never admitted it, and even though Wes Clark was well familiar to Washington, they always loathed and feared him becoz they never grokked him and becoz he was always so grass roots and Arkansas.
Yeah, so this time around, Wes Clark was supporting Hillary, not just becoz of his ties to Bill Clinton, who BTW, in the end, had betrayed Wes Clark and fired him or practically fired him becoz that other Wussy ass William Cohen who was Sec Defense and that Hugh Shelton general loathed and feared Wes Clark and didnt want him staying around Washington and truth telling about Bosnia or anywhere else and even though Bill Clinton betrayed him in the end, Wes Clark supported Hillary, becoz he felt her defense creds were better.
Now he has defended Barry Obama to nudgy Bobby Schieffer and becoz some surrogate on McCain's team and McCain himself started whining right away, whaddayaknow, good ole Barry
Obama rolled the heck right over.
Mr. rollie over Obama, thas him, people.
Damn moron. Now he is fucking stuck with this crap.
Guess how the NYT is reporting it:
The Obama campaign kept its distance from Clark’s comments. Bill Burton, a spokesman for the Illinois Democrat, said Monday that “Senator Obama
honors and respects Senator McCain’s service, and of course, he rejects
yesterday’s statement by General Clark."
Lemme tell ya, this is not called Keeping Distance, this is called Fucking rolling right the heck over and asking to be fucked. Stupid moron.
This is fucking repudiation of an honorable soldier who has staked his reputation for ya miserable ass.
OK, ya dont like it, fuck the heck off.
When I first read the interview earlier today, much earlier, and read of the McCain surrogate hysterical whining, I immediately had the thought Wes Clark should just leave Barry Obama stupid ass to defend himself.
But then I immediately thought, this man is an honorable soldier, he is seriously concerned about Iran, he has been seriously concerned about the bungling and mismanagement of Iraq, he knows all the problems in Afghanistan, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen, he is not gonna cop out from defending the interests of his beloved troops and his beloved country becoz of peeve or some other petty reason.
So in the end, I knew Wes Clark will do what he believes is right and then voila, wussy Barry Obama rolls the heck right over.
Ya see, thas the way.
I am already concerned about McCain's horrific choice of economic advisor Phil Gramm, whose wife Wendy Gramm was instrumental in bringing about the disasters of Enron, securities deregulation and now the hysterically spiralling housing and essential commodity crisis. I have been so busy carefully forensic checking the trail that led to this horrific economic multi part crisis and even though I already know many parts of the worst, guess what, I find something even worse, if that is possible. On her own Mercatus center web site, with full pride and joy, the totally shameless ass, with her grinning photo and a photo of a grinning accomplice writes a nasty hit piece on the EPA, available as pdf labelled something wicked this way comes. And the horrific shameless woman writes shamelessly about midnight regulations that might be entered by the EPA, who she hates like poison. And this from the woman who snuck in the horrific deregulation crap into an appropriations bill that led to the horrific deregs in commodities causing the spiralling disaster in oil and essential items, already having deregged energy for Enron, with her buddies Tom Delay and his lobbying wife.
My goodness, it just gets worse.
We have the horrific Gramms ready to make their triumphant reemergence, we have crazy ass John McCain ready to gallumph into war with Iran, stay in Iraq 100 years and we have wussy Barry Obama bleating like a chicken becoz an honorable, braveheart soldier defended his ungrateful ass.
Wes Clark, you just do whatever the heck you want. You dont work for Barry Obama, and you have the right to say whatever the heck you want. You have always defended the vital interests of your troops and your country and you just keep on doing whatever you believe in your heart to be right. A grateful nation knows your worth. God bless you and God bless the USA.
Shame on you Barry, silly wuss ass. Rolling over again and again. We gonna get stuck with crazy ass John McCain and we will be stuck with crazy ass Phil Gramm and his creepy moronic Wendy Gramm wife, who thinks the EPA of all things is what she calls wicked.
My goodness, it just gets worser and worser all the time.Labels: Barry Obama rolls over, McCain whines, Phil and Wendy Gramm look to redux, Wes Clark speaks the truth

I dont why that NYT guy Kristof started moaning about Katie Couric as if she is like Hillary, there is no comparison
She didnt mind lapping up the $17 million for the salary or bonus or whatever, but now that her broadcast is a dud she is complaining that corporates were on her case.
How come dozens of female and male broadcasters still managed to make their points and get their broadcasts.
No question many reporters and anchors were cheerleaders for the war. Brian Williams is also complaining about the Pentagon, but he thought his fellow White Christian Jesus Boy was right and the towel head sympos were wrong.
Like the American people many thought, what if Bush is right, right not just about the weapons, right about the ease of victory, right about the transition and right about a pacified mid east.
There were plenty of people and testimony and discussions to help them form the contrary view, the American people supported this President and the war right up to the hilt, all of us were lumped into misfits or disgruntled or commies or secret towel head sympos and stuff like that.
It's not like there wasnt plenty of testimony, op eds and reports to the contrary, many by State, Intel and military people, the American people and many press made their choices and took their pick.
Just becoz Katie Couric is a dweeb is not the reason to start bawling about women anchors, there are plenty of robust and credible women anchors.
I saw Sue on NBC practically the same after 10 years later, Linda Stouffer on CNN, Julie Chen, Jodie Chen, even the skinny anorexic ABC chick who is married to a rocker. There are many more and I cant recall all the names right now.
If they want a woman, there are plenty they could find, why the heck did they go for servile and deferential, the Katie woman is a disgrace.
Speaking of whom, I really dont know how Chris Matthews is gonna continue, first of all he has ticked off so many women, second of all, who is his constituency.
It amazes me the tiny viewerships with which MSNBC and other networks continue to parcel out their evening hours, there is just nothing there that helps people cope with the realities of the advancing economic and political clout in the world.
Plus Chris showed his misogyny apparently, he is too cranky and narcissistic and I dont know who proposed him for Bob Schieffer's show.
Plus, enough with the navel gazing Washington insider shtick, we sick of it.
Get Chuck Roberts from CNN, he is smart, he is resonant, he is from Nebraska or something, or get Linda Stouffer or Jodie Chen, if ya too scared getting Julie will seem like nepotism, now she married to that CBS guy who David Letterman jokes with on his show.
There's a bunch of very good people.
And make BBC and Deutsche Welle available in the country, ya can throw in something else, but those are a good start.
Go on.
Take a few bets, ya may be surprised.
So Gail Collins writes about the women who are ticked off at the primary process and Hillary's loss
I was OK with the loss and the loss in progress, I wanted the process to reach its own conclusion. After it was over, I saw a WSJ article on the loss which had a sketch drawing of the person called Mark Penn.
This completely shocked me, becoz the Mark Penn I thought was Mark Penn was the genial, amiable thin cheeked man with glasses who shows up on round table discussions and all.
I tried googling in multiple ways to locate this person I thought was Mark Penn, but it kept showing up the jowly dude with the weird hair on the WSJ sketch. Imagine that.
Who the heck is the other Penn guy, with the grin and the Partridge family hair.
I last saw him on BBC with Kirsty Lang, and I got worked up becoz I thought Kirsty was putting on the guy with the lobbying cloud, who made millions and sold out Hillary.
So I still dont know who the Mark Penn with the Partridge family hair is.
But Gail is right about the social safety net, women's right, health, children and staying in the race.
That's why chicks like Carly Fiorina or the eBay lady are so not Hillary.
They rich and they set out to be rich and powerful and the lady who drives her car to the factory or to a shift in a hospital, and sometimes drives to a neighboring town to work, and then goes home and handles her family is not going to solve her problems by suddenly making $100 million dollars or floating a successful share offering.
We need chicks who are comprehending of what real world women and workers are going through, not the chicks who make millions and think everyone just has to be smart like them and nobody will have to worry about health care or social safety net for them, becoz they have 5 homes on three continents.
Somebody earlier in the blog suggested the female governor of Alaska, I will have to check her out.
I also like Katherine Sebelius from Kansas, and since Barry's grandparents are apparently from that, that would be lovely too.
I dont like Jim Webb or some other white hawk guy, it would make it too easy for the nuts to lust after that guy to get the job, better have a straightforward leftie chick. Then we will have a nice 2 term president.
Barry can win on his own, not with Jihadi Webb and his Viet wife rattling around in his wake.
Let's see what Webb achieves in the Senate besides being a counter point to macaca.
So Barry Obama won his nomination and Hillary won the States she did and Barry won the States he did
so what was the big whoop de do, we do have a nominee, everybody did get to vote, even those whose votes are only gonna be half or allocated by telepathy or whatever, everybody did vote.
At least we know stuff now, like Montana voted for Obama, this is important to know, at least now we have a nominee, we dont have to listen to the same morons who kept saying to truncate the process tell us that Barry was coronated or crap like that, or Caroline Kennedy was having an affair with him, or Maria Shriver or all kinds of moronic stuff.
He won whatever he won, including some fairly white and sunburned states, so who knew. Montana apparently has a few things in addition to its spectacular scenaries and cowboys and Ted Turner.
This is all good.
It is also fine that Barry is black, great that many people feel happy about this. Now he has the nomination, just win.
Becoz we dont want it to be a symbolic moment and then wait another 20 years before somebody wins.
But I think we are fairly used to black people being leaders, the surprise is so few leave their safe Congressional districts to run for Senate.
Maybe now it will happen.
