Welcome to the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy, Susan Estrich.


Getting hate mail for this yet?

Well, it’s still pretty early in the morning.  Plenty of time for your compatriots to address your heresy properly:

Mother Knows Best

The president is “not familiar” with the bill. No one can explain how it will work yet, as Sen. Ben Cardin, D-Md., told a contentious town meeting. There are various plans, and negotiations are still in the early stages.

But whatever it is, we should be for it.

Am I missing something?

Yes. He won, he knows best, so “shut up.”

Moe Lane

PS: No, actually, this is precisely who you voted for, Susan Estrich.  While you were all the while mocking the people who were telling you differently.  So if you’re annoyed, first be annoyed at yourself for your incredulity, then at the administration for taking advantage of it – and then go back at being annoyed at yourself, rather than bring my side into the summer of your discontent.  Enabling you is no more on our agenda than it is on the President’s.

This is the same Susan Estrich of the raspy voice...

who was on FOX news all the time, as a commentator and an ardent supporter of Obama?

Yeah, she’s missing something-her own stupidity and duplicity in the election of the boy who would be king.

She seemed so, so happy. She’d seen the early exit polls that showed Kerry winning solidly.

I’m comfortable with this method of presentation of links and it’s a generally accepted method of doing so, so you’re wasting your time complaining about it.

Sorry, but that’s how it is.

Mike, if you highlight the link before clicking

You should see the web address at the appropriate place on your browser (lower left on IE) which often can give a clue as to where the link is directing you and the title of the article linked to. This method does work on Moe’s article here.

Sometimes, of course, you get a set of cryptic letters+numbers as the article title, most often with certain of the media services, but most of the time the links to non-media blogs will have some intelligible descriptor title.

In any case, you usually at least can figure out the website identity, even if you don’t get a readable article title.

The greatest evil…is conceived and ordered (moved, seconded, carried, and minuted) in clean, carpeted, warmed, and well-lighted offices, by quiet men with white collars and cut fingernails and smooth-shaven cheeks who do not need to raise their voice.

But where am I going to park my Itunes mini-player now? I had it covering up that spot.

“The press is so powerful in its image-making role that it can make a criminal look like he’s the victim and make the victim look like he’s the criminal. If you aren’t careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”– Malcolm X, Audubon Ballroom, December 13, 1964

I'd give Estrich some credit.

Given the lunatic, blind support that most of the Left gives reflexively this is welcome. It’s a stop and think moment, so rare in the deluded environs of liberal[?] muppets. It even shows evidence of thought, not a bad thing.

“a man’s admiration for absolute government is proportinate to the contempt he feels for those around him”. Tocqueville

She's probably still blind,

Flagstaff (Diary) Thursday, July 23rd at 7:44PM EST (link)

but in this case she’s decided not to sound idiotic.

And she agrees with me.

“The press is so powerful in its image-making role that it can make a criminal look like he’s the victim and make the victim look like he’s the criminal. If you aren’t careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”– Malcolm X, Audubon Ballroom, December 13, 1964

 
 

I think Estrich is precious

peg_c (Diary) Thursday, July 23rd at 3:17PM EST (link)

The same way Ann Althouse and Megan McArdle, Obama voters both, are precious. It’s just so darn cute the way they voted for the dismantling of America and now whine, whine, whine about it.

Makes me want to puke.

Government cannot be the solution when government is the problem.

 

The only way, unfortunately

Dear people, wherever you may be,

I’ve just finished rereading Atlas Shrugged for the third time. The first two times (a long time ago) I applied its lessons to the collapse of the Soviet Bloc. Now Ayn Rand’s work seems more pertinent than ever due the events unfolding in my homeland.

The reason I say my homeland is because I’m an expatriate American English teacher living in South Korea. I’ve been living and working in the ROK for twelve years, but I still send in my absentee ballot for presidential elections every four years.

What I’ve been seeing taking place in the USA since January 20 is making me more upset by the day. The mounting deficits, the growing and dangerous dependence on China (many South Koreans are very jittery about China) to finance those deficits, the talk of instituting new (VAT and a big one at that) taxes to help cover those very same deficits, the bailouts of GM, and particularly Chrysler, the attempt to remove choice and private enterprise from the U.S. health care system, the stimulus that went mostly to government drones rather things that would really stimulate, and above all, the despicable behavior of the mainstream media in covering up Obama’s real Chicago background. I had to go and find the red star at the top of William Ayers website all by myself!

All these things have made me very alarmed concerning the future of my country. So I’ve reached one overriding conclusion: it’s time for Americans to revolt against royal authority for the second time in 234 years.

I say this because I don’t believe the traditional legislative process can stop my country’s slide towards the comfortable euthanasia of West European-style socialism. With the idiocy of Bush to guide them, the Republicans have done a very creditable job of taking Dirty Harry’s 357. and pointing it at least at their feet, if not their heads.

So it’s time to revolt. This will be a difficult idea for many Americans to grasp. After all, we are the product of a culture that has been based on the rule of law from its very beginnings back in medieval England.

What I’m talking about is starving the Government Beast. Come next April 15, 2010 don’t send in your tax forms. Refuse to pay! If you’re a small businessman don’t pay your state (If you live in California, New York, or New Jersey, this applies especially to you) or federal business taxes. Don’t pay your licensing fees! When the Bush tax cuts expire in 2011, don’t file! Simply don’t feed the Beast!

If you’re worried about prosecution, there’s safety in numbers. If ten million Americans refuse to pay, the looters can’t possibly oppress more than a very small number of people. If ten million small business people refuse to knuckle under to the New Jealously Class, then the Beast will be truly crippled and will be forced to beg for mercy. View your refusal to pay blackmail to the looters as a civil rights issue along the lines of what inspired Martin Luther King during the civil rights movement of the 1950s and the early 1960s. IT IS NOT YOUR PATRIOTIC DUTY TO PAY HIGHER TAXES! In fact, it can be considered a form of treason to file on April 15, 2010.

Anyway, this has happened before. What most Americans don’t remember or never learned is that in the run-up to the American Revolution the British backed down twice over the issue of taxes. Parliament repealed both the Stamp Act and the Townshend Acts in the face of fierce colonial protests. Remember, the looters don’t have the mighty Royal Navy behind them, or ranks of hard fighting British Grenadiers, all they have in their favor is the willingness to submit of a people who have been comfortable for far too long.

If you don’t think this is too insane, PASS IT ON!!!
