Barbara's Daily Buzz

To recognize that the Michelle Malkin, Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Sarah Palin conservative movement is akin to the Afghanistan/Pakistani Taliban is being one step ahead of murdering civil rights and democracy! These people want nothing more than to turn America into a theocracy founded on their personal fundamental beliefs. No more choice, no more equal rights, no more secular worship, no more government of, for, and by the people! Public executions, without the benefit of a judge, a jury of peers and a trial, will be the acceptable punishment for those who disagree with Malkin, Beck, Limbaugh, and Palin. When conservatives become criminals, then it's time to arrest them, and if that's what Ms. Malkin views as "clampdown," then so be it! Anyone who does agree with her "paranoid" cockamamie perception is genuinely as crazy as she is -- "a recent essay by syndicated columnist Michelle Malkin. After describing the murder of a controversial abortion doctor, a guard at Washington's Holocaust Museum, and a census bureau employee who was found with the word "Fed" written on his corpse, she insisted that 'The criminalization of conservative dissent is well underway.' How so? Because some of these acts caused media revulsion against certain branches of the conservative movement; surely the clampdown is not far behind." It's amazing that so many in America are walking around on the streets when they should be hospitalized in an institution for mental instability!

"Republican Mississippi Rep. Gregg Harper.... We hunt liberal, tree-hugging Democrats, although it does seem like a waste of good ammunition.... Harper spokesman Adam Buckalew told me <Anne Shroeder Mullins> to lighten up.... 'It's supposed to be fun...It's having a good time'" And then there's this, "a potential GOP opponent of Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) squeezed off a few rounds at a paper target with the initials 'CWS' scrawled on it. He apologized, saying it was inappropriate." Damn straight it was "inappropriate," it was a terroristic threat! What rock did these crazies crawl out from under, since when has hunting your opponents down and killing them become "fun" and "having a good time"??? Are the Repuglicans actually hoping to turn America into another Darfur??? Do the Repuglicans really want to get rid of the opposition by inciting murder!!! This has got to stop -- threats of murdering a politician is a form of terrorism and should be treated as such, no matter who is making the threat, these guys should be "frogmarched in handcuffs" off to prison posthaste for inciting murder and for treason! This is not "fun," it is not "having a good time," if the tables were turned, these same lunatics would be hollering loud and clear for the law and prosecution!!! P.S. "I'm sorry" for a pseudo act of shooting a woman, Representative Debbie Wasserman (D-FL), does not absolve such disgusting acts of violence!

Upon first hearing this news I thought it was a joke, and now that it's been verified I know it's a joke! "Former President George W. Bush has signed up to be the "special guest speaker" for one of those traveling arena-size motivational speaker extravaganzas" The man who couldn't articulate the words written for him on a teleprompter while President has now become a "motivational speaker"!!! Have to wonder who will be writing the "motivational" words and will they get a cut of his paid for motivation?? Bush and enlightenment do not compute in a sane world! With Bush as a headliner, who's next up in the world of motivation, Sarah Palin???

Having been a healthcare worker for years, this is the reason the Founding Fathers believed in a separation of church and state. "Reporting from Washington -- The outgoing Bush administration is planning to announce a broad new 'right of conscience' rule permitting medical facilities, doctors, nurses, pharmacists and other healthcare workers to refuse to participate in any procedure they find morally objectionable, including abortion and possibly even artificial insemination and birth control." This opens the door for all kinds of refusals -- "right of conscience" covers a myriad of convictions depending on personal beliefs. What is right or wrong for some is meaningless for others. "An eye for an eye" is not the way to go! If you have convictions in your job that differs from the law, then for God's sake look for another career -- things such as abortion, birth control, and sterilization have been legal for a long time, and one would have to be brain dead if you entered the healthcare field not knowing abortions are preformed, birth control is prescribed, and sterilization procedures are occurring everyday in a hospital or an outpatient facility, or even in a doctor's office! Besides being unconstitutional, this wrong-headed "moral grounds" thinking opens up a "pandora's box" to many other beliefs that could come back to bite us all in the rear, say "not marrying an interracial couple"!

This is the ultimate in disgusting Repuglican hypocrisy -- "Rep. Phil Gingrey blasted the federal stimulus program before voting against it in February, predicting its chances of success were 'slim and none' and that it would worsen the national debt. But that didn't stop the Republican from presenting an oversized check for $625,000 in federal stimulus funds to Cedartown officials this month for new downtown sidewalks, landscaping and other streetscape improvements. A photo of him holding the check with Cedartown officials appeared on the front page of The Cedartown Standard newspaper Oct. 8. The check was signed 'Uncle Sam.'"

Rush Limbaugh may have a right to own a business, but so also does that business group have the right to refuse his participation! "HARRIS: Talk show host Rush Limbaugh no longer in the running for an ownership stake in the NFL's St. Louis Rams. A group bidding to buy the team dropped Limbaugh as a partner, saying his involvement became a complication and distraction. On his radio show, Limbaugh called it an ongoing effort on the left to destroy conservatism." Hmm, Rush, could be what you send out is coming back to you, you're self-destructing, the hate talk you spew on air everyday is actually destroying you!

"Police: Juveniles laughed after setting 15-year-old on fire" As long as bullying, abuse, lies, acting out anger, and negativity is promoted and considered acceptable politics, children will continue to follow that model! What in God's name do you think, "Wanted Dead or Alive, Bring It On, and Mission Accomplished" said to America's children? What do you think Repuglicans that encourage war and death and dying says to America's children? America's radical right wing are the ones who've lost their values, they've made up tenets to suit their own wants needs and desires, they've left behind the true Christian teachings in pursuit of power and greed!

"In Today's Viral World, Who Keeps a Civil Tongue?...'Ms. Carney-Nunes,' began the e-mail from Michelle Malkin, a best-selling and often inflammatory conservative writer... Malkin was asking about a YouTube video of New Jersey public school children singing and enthusiastically chanting about Obama from a Black History Month presentation. By nightfall, Carney-Nunes's name was playing on Fox News and voice mails on her home phone and cellphone were clogged with the furious voices of strangers....e-mails kept pouring in....crammed with words spam filters try to catch: She was a.....traitor; she would lose her job and go to jail; she was Leni Riefenstahl, the filmmaker who glorified Hitler." The irony in the vitriol from those who claim to be Christian is unparalleled! These people have lost all sense of decency, and all manner of decorum when they go on the attack, after having been fired up by those without any conscience, character or dignity! "Innocent until proven guilty" makes no difference to these right wing miscreants who claim so loudly to be patriots. "Carney-Nunes, swept up in a viral tornado of vitriol, had nothing to do with the children's song." And just in case anyone is wondering where the children of today get their ideas to bully and abuse their peers, all the answers are wrapped up in these conservative Repuglican right wing attacks!

"It's starting to look more and more like Texas governor Rick Perry orchestrated an effort to thwart a state probe into an arson investigation that may have led to the execution of an innocent man." What can be done about a governor who knowingly allows, the execution of an innocent man and then tries to cover it up??? Technically could this be murder, or manslaughter, or does the "I didn't know" excuse carry water for the politically connected down there in Texas!

Leave it to mainstream corporate media to find sand among the pearls! Somehow I knew as soon as I heard the news that President Obama had won the Nobel Peace Prize, I knew the media and the Repuglicans would find something about it to criticize simply because the media and the Repuglicans have brains the size of a pea! There are some left in these United States who understood right away why President Obama won and to them I say thank you, it means there may be some hope for America after all!
