Moonbat du Jour: Roland Burris
Written by Paul Zannucci on 8:36 AMMoonbat du Jour: Hilda Solis, Labor Secretary
Written by Paul Zannucci on 10:24 AMArticle to read: FrontPageMag.com, A Leftist in Labor
Hilda Solis was actually a fantastic choice for Labor Secretary. Who better to embody the Demwit notion of "Labor" than someone who is deeply committed to the "green" wealth redistribution platform? Who better to embody the Demwit notion of "Labor" than someone who is openly friendly to American communist and socialist organizations?
From the article: A Congresswoman since 2001, Solis is a member of the Progressive Caucus, the socialist wing of the Democrat Party in the House of Representatives. The Caucus was founded by the self-identified Socialist and Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders—himself a member of the Democratic Socialists of America, which describes itself as “the principal U.S. affiliate of the Socialist International.” The Progressive Caucus laments that “the concentration of wealth is a problem because it distorts our democracy, destabilizes the economy and erodes our social and cultural fabric,” a crisis for which it advocates “a package of legislative initiatives that will close America’s economic divide and address both income and wealth disparities.” In other words, Hilda Solis wants to spread the wealth around. And her lifelong record bears it out.
This is, after all, what Demwits are now all about. The Democratic Party has become the de facto American socialist party, and Obama's selection for Labor Secretary, Hilda Solis, is a perfect example of that.
So here's to you, Hilda baby, you are the Moonbad du Jour.
Moonbat Du Jour: Patrick Leahy and the Truth Commission
Written by Paul Zannucci on 4:50 PMFinally in January 1987, Leahy was forced to resign as vice-chair of the Senate's Select Committee on Intelligence after leaking classified information on the Iran-Contra affair. Not surprisingly, after 9/11, the FBI investigated national security leaks from Congress, specifically House and Senate Select Intelligence committee leaks.
Moonbat Du Jour(s): Congress
Written by Paul Zannucci on 1:10 PMMoonbat Du Jour: People's Republic of Denver
Written by Anonymous on 6:49 PMLiberalism has wussified and californicated the once proud and brave frontier town of Denver. The effete metrosexuals have reduced the city to to a shivering, piddling down its leg inbred toy dog cowering at the foot of the Rockies. Buffalo Bill is rolling over in his grave.
AURORA A Cherokee Trail High School senior who had a ROTC-style drill team rifle in the back of her car has been suspended from school and will face expulsion, officials said.The little liberal pot smokers who tore the McCain bumper stickers off of Marie's car were scared when they saw the drill rifles, so following their socialist indoctrination to the letter, they rushed to tell their liberal overseers.
Marie Morrow, 17, a member of the Douglas County Young Marines, said she brought a wood and duct tape reproduction of a rifle to school Thursday in preparation for drill team practice. When the rifle was spotted in the back of her car by other students, she said, school administrators suspended her for 10 days pending an expulsion hearing.
This is not about protecting kids. It's about conditioning them to have an adverse Pavlovian response to firearms. Schools have failed at teaching our kids math and science, but they've sure got the social indoctrination down.

Moonbat(s) Du Jour: Tennessee GOP
Written by Paul Zannucci on 3:34 PMMoonbat Du Jour: Jeffrey Immelt
Written by Paul Zannucci on 11:04 AM
Hot off of making NBC and MSNBC the official propaganda wings of the Obama campaign, GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt has now been named to Barack Obama's economic advisory board, along with such eminent individuals as Anna Burger, the head of the semi-communist American labor movement, Change to Win.
So what kind of advice can Immelt offer to comrade Obama?
1) Obama wants to open dialogues with Iran, and Immelt certainly has ties there. GE has been doing business in Iran for years, even helping to support Iranian terrorist activity in Iraq.
2) GE helped to pioneer and bankroll some of the more ridiculous mortgage guidelines that led to the current mortgage crisis. No one was out in front of GE in the reverse equity mortgage business back at the turn of the century, as they were at one time offering homeowners ways of getting 100 percent mortgages with a side order of HELOC.
3) GE exacerbated this mortgage mismanagement by insuring other mortgage companies and encouraging this bad banking behavior. In the end, GE managed to get a $140 billion bail out to stay in business.
Immelt and Obama seem a couple made in heaven, which makes Jeffy the Moonbat Du Jour.
Moonbat Du Jour: President Obama's Faith Based Community Organizing
Written by Anonymous on 8:19 PMPresident Obama's social kommissars have hijacked the joint. Oh, the name won't change; they need the religious cover. Plaster a cross on the community organizin' and it's all good!
The Obama approach will keep the basic structure that the Bush administration took. There will be a White House-based office and Centers for Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships in the executive agencies.
White House officials and outside advisors say that Obama's effort will be broader than his predecessor's and he will expand the scope of the office to include more emphasis on community organizations and a greater coordination with policymakers.
It's not all good. It's all bad. I said it then and I'll say it again. It was bad when Bush did it and it's bad now that Obama is doing it.
A religion can only sully itself by contact with the government. Jefferson's separation of Church and State goes both ways. Everybody worries about the US becoming an Evangelical theocracy when what they really should be worrying over is government's grubby mitts corrupting and besmudging religion.First Amendment notwithstanding, government may prohibit the free exercise of a religious organization that voluntarily enters into a lawful agreement with it. That money has strings attached. That is why I am opposed to my religious organization taking any federal funds.
The Mormon's, God bless 'em, have the good sense to stay away from this nonsense.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints has operated an "effective welfare and humanitarian program for more than 60 years without government funding," spokesman Scott Trotter said Wednesday, signaling the church also is unlikely ever to accept federal money under Obama's initiatives.
That stance continues the approach taken by the church in 2001, when President Bush created the first faith-based initiative.
"We like to do [our welfare projects] on our own," the late President Gordon B. Hinckley said at the time. "Once the government is involved, regulations follow."
Here's a libertarian lesson for social conservatives who don't mind hijacking government for their own social causes. It doesn't look so good when the other side does it, does it?
The only honest answer to all this is to get government out of all extra-constitutional activities, including buying off and co-opting religious organizations.
Moonbat du jour: Tom Daschle, Obama's Secretary of Health and Human Services (updated)
Written by Paul Zannucci on 8:43 AMI will forever remember the night that the good folks of the state of South Dakota sent the country a present and ousted Tom Daschle from the Senate. The only problem is that he never went home, and now that the Obama administration is on its knees regurgitating yesterday's change into the porcelain at the White House, we are going to get to see much more of him, or are we?
The news surrounding Daschle over the last few days has been inspiring--well, to me anyway. I mean, first we find out that he's brought in over $5 million from the health care companies he is supposed to reform. And now we learn that Mr. Daschle, who works for the political party that toils tirelessly to make certain that the old adage about nothing in life being free is true, didn't realize that he had to pay taxes on his free car and chauffeur, about $128,000 in taxes worth.
But don't worry about any morality issues here. Daschle was just too stupid to pay. After being selected by Obama and having his tax shortcomings pointed out to him, Daschle started paying for all that old stuff, having made a tax payment of $140,000 and saying that he probably owes more, according to a report from the New York Times.
It's the ultimate irony when a tax-and-spend liberal "forgets" to pay his taxes or claims, as Daschle does, that he just didn't know that he owed taxes for such a thing. So here's to you, Tom Daschle; you are the moonbat du jour.
