Lots of Americans believe service, honor, and country should be top priority for every single U.S. elected official. Iowa’s newest Senator, Republican Joni Ernst, shows how it’s done.
Joni Ernst for Iowa
Lt. Col. Joni Ernst, a combat veteran in Operation Iraqi Freedom, has been juggling her civilian and military lives since joining the National Guard in 1993. She was on duty every Thursday and Friday during her tenure as a State Senator and throughout her campaign for U.S. Senate. And she does it without fanfare. She has told the Guard she wants no special treatment. She even stepped away from the campaign for a week to drill over the summer.

Coach Dave Daubenmire thinks something is definitely wrong with Barack Obama. (Is this the first time you’ve noticed, Dave?)
Excerpts:
I’ve lived my entire life in a world of athletic competition. The thrill of victory and the agony of defeat brings with it emotions. But the human drama of competition seems to have no outward effect on Barack Obama. He got his butt kicked. Every talking head on the tube is pointing the finger at his unpopularity. His party rejected him. The American people rejected him. His fawning media has turned their affections in a different direction, yet he shows no emotion. He does not react like a normal human being.
In fact, what he does act like is a sociopath. He has destroyed his party. His friends are running for cover. But he acts as if he has just won. Sociopaths are dangerous. You can laugh at me, but what kind of man plays golf after a young man’s head is chopped off? What kind of man disappears for hours while some of his “employees” are being killed overseas? What kind of man permits a deadly disease to be freely introduced into a society? President Obama is a dangerous man. Will anyone stop him?

Is the man in the White House mentally ill?

Louisiana’s Senator (for now) Mary Landrieu faces a tough Dec. 6 runoff election against a guy who only came in 2 points behind her … when he had another Republican who took 12 points of the vote. So ummmmmmm … let me see … 12 – 2 = Landrieu go home?
On Wednesday, somebody tweeted something campaign-y on Landrieu’s campaign account. I say “somebody” because she’s apparently tweeting in the third person these days, which is either a sign that she has a mental illness involving delusions of royalty or else somebody besides her is using the account. Come to think … it could also be a combination of the two.
The tweet racked up Zero Retweets, which is kinda weird, since she is still a U.S. Senator … sort of … and only one Favorite from someone named JJ the Purple Twitter Egg, which is kinda weird, cuz Purple Twitter Egg?
Never let it be said that Conservatives never did nothing for ol’ Mary. Once they discovered the lonely tweet by her schizo-royal-ness’ imaginary handmaiden, they boosted its circulations via some well-deserved mockery. My fave:
@MaryLandrieu It’s like you already don’t matter. A lot like that. As your attorney, my advice is to drink heavily.
The Big Question in everyone’s mind today is not whether or not Mary Landrieu has become irrelevant. It is WHO is JJ the Purple Twitter Egg and why did s/he Favorite Mary’s lame-o tweet?

From the Fox News Email Update:
“In a perfunctory press conference held to face an almost taunting press corps, Obama tried to invalidate the outcome. The president suggested that there was no clear message from voters beyond, inexplicably, a perceived desire for his agenda to be implemented.
“The president’s refusal to acknowledge the legitimacy of Tuesday’s result bodes ill indeed for the months to come. Republicans had hoped that a loss, especially one as large as this, would chasten the president on the use of executive action and open him up to compromise. The president’s message was that he intends to give little ground, previewing what could be a very raucous close to 2014 as Democrats prepare to hand over power in the Senate.
“Spending bills and other must-pass measures are likely to mingle with rushed appointments, including an expected clash over the appointment of a new attorney general in the Senate. And from the other end of Pennsylvania Avenue, Obama will be preparing to launch his promised temporary amnesty for illegal immigrants. Washington shouldn’t plan on a very merry Christmas this year.“
Obama made it clear in his post-election presser that he has zero intention of even listening to Republican ideas, much less working with us to implement them. Come January, we’ll be able to force stuff through even over his vetoes. Until then, we can expect this …
Nov 5, 2014: Obama’s post-election presser featured a bold question from a reporter [1:36]
QUESTION: “You said you were going to end the hyper-partisanship in Washington, but you’ve made it worse. You’ve only met with the Senate Republican leader twice in the past six years. Was that a mistake?”
ANSWER: “We haven’t been able to get what’s discussed in leadership meetings through Congress to deliver a bill.”
Uhhhhhhhh … the question was about the LACK of said leadership meetings, dipshit.
From Fox News Email Update: “Fox News’s Ed Henry pointed out the obvious: ‘I haven’t heard you say a specific thing during this news conference that you would do differently.’ Obama restated his passive stance, saying it would be ‘premature’ to talk about changing personnel or policies. NPR’s Scott Horsley gave a last try, asking Obama whether he saw ‘some shortcoming on your part’ because Democratic policies fared better than Democratic candidates. Obama replied in the conditional: ‘If the way we are talking about issues isn’t working, then I’m going to try some different things.’”
Here’s the key point: “If the way we are TALKING isn’t working, I’ll trying TALKING differently.” He has said this kind of thing before. “We haven’t been clear enough with our story.” He can’t conceive of the possibility that we understand his story perfectly well; we just don’t like it. It’s a common left-wing mental disorder; they’re right about everything, so if we disagree, it’s because we haven’t yet UNDERSTOOD them properly.
After Obama’s presser, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus said, “In word and tone he refused to take responsibility or even express humility. He seemed to suggest the only ideas he’s willing to listen to are his own, old, failed ones. That’s the same my-way-or-the-highway approach that the American people rejected.”

November 5, 2014: President Obama held a post-election presser. I can’t stand listening to him, but I read about it at Twitchy. 🙂 Here’s the gist of what they said he said:
“To everyone who voted, I want you to know…I hear you. To the two-thirds of voters who chose not to participate…I hear you, too.” —Obama
And here are some Twittery replies:
Obama Goes Off on Reporter Major Garrett for asking a substantive question
Obama does have his sycophants like the lapdog journo who let him say he loves campaigning, shaking hands, and hugging people.
And Geraldo Rivera, who tweeted: “Deserted by Latinos, blacks and his feckless lazy Millennial supporters, President O got his ass kicked by millions of angry old white folk.”

It’s the same ol’ same ol’. These people have nothing but hate to offer the world.
Scott was gracious. In a series of tweets, he said:
My skin color is talked about often. Tonight I want to talk about it for just a moment. In South Carolina, in America, it takes a generation to go from having a grandfather who is picking cotton, to a grandson in Congress. We are thankful for those trailblazers who came before us and said the status quo was not enough. I stand on the shoulders of giants. Our values and our issues are central. The most important things we have to offer are on the inside. This is the testament to progress made.

The buzz words the LSM has apparently agreed on is that this was a “Seinfeld election” (Seinfeld show’s premise was “a show about nothing.”) President Obama said it wasn’t a “true national election.” Ooooooooooooookay. Funny how after Obama won a single primary, it was “the day the oceans began to recede.”
I guess when you vote with your little brains instead of your big brains, you can actually believe people like Joe Biden and Chris Matthews are wise and truthful prognosticators of reality.
Far from being a nothing election, some of Tuesday’s wins were actually historic. Come January 2015, the GOP will have the most seats since the Truman administration. In those seats will be the first female war veteran ever elected, Iowa’s and West Virginia’s first female Senators, the youngest woman ever elected to Congress, the first Black Republican woman ever elected to Congress, and the first Black Senator elected in the South since Reconstruction. Odd how they’re all Republicans, what with, you know, Democrats being soooooo all about advancing Blacks and Wimmin. Or something.
Dems famously opined in January 2007 that NOW they would have a chance to GOVERN. Well, they’ve proved they can’t and in the process lost their traditional guilt-and-hate-hold on voters-with-brains. Dem candidates, like Mark Udall, Wendy Davis and Sandra Fluke, who all got a lot of positive MSM national press for their Uterine Campaigns ALL LOST. And when Democrat Martha Coakely prefaced a debate question to her opponent Republican Tom Reed with, “As part of the war on women,” the studio audience spontaneously burst into LAUGHTER.
Even Billary lost big! According to the left-leaning Politico, Bill and Hillary Clinton were the most sought-after campaigners this election season. “In the final weeks of the campaign, nearly every endangered Democrat brought [Bill and Hillary Clinton] along on the stump – from Kay Hagan in North Carolina to Mary Landrieu in Louisiana, Mark Udall in Colorado to Mark Pryor in Arkansas. But it was an overwhelming wipeout — of the Clinton-backed candidates in the closest Senate races, only [Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H.] hung on.”
According to Harry Reid, “The message from voters is clear: they want us to work together. I look forward to working with Senator McConnell to get things done for the middle class.” Scott Ott at PJ Media wrote:
No, Senator Reid. Americans don’t want Washington to “work together” to “get things done.”
If Americans were tired of divisiveness in D.C., and frustrated with the failure to work together to pass legislation, Democrats would have swept Tuesday’s midterm elections. They did not.
If Americans wanted to get back to the good old days of the Clinton administration, they would have supported the candidates who Bill and Hillary backed. In the crucial Senate races in Georgia, Arkansas, Colorado, Iowa, North Carolina (and others), they did not.
Americans would have returned Harry Reid to the Senate majority leader’s chair, with a filibuster-proof Democratic majority, if they yearned to…
pack the courts with abortion advocates, or
hold onto their Obamacare health plan, or
yield their children to compulsory Common Core curricula, or
slap down corporations through higher taxes, or
muzzle the voice of the Koch brothers, or
protect the bureaucrats who snoop on and target us, or
put that hinkle dreck Netanyahu in his place. (Apologies to my Pennsylvania Dutch and Jewish brethren.)They did not do that, because they do not want that.
In Iowa, the Joni Ernst for Senate campaign caught fire when she implied she would castrate Democrats and their cronies in D.C. — figuratively, of course.
If America wanted nothing more than peace in the D.C. pigpen, Joni would be headed home.
Instead, Senator-elect Ernst is pulling on her Carhartts and snapping on the latex gloves.
As Pistol Pete put it … “The Republicans were not elected to change the tone in DC. They weren’t elected to work with Obama to get things done. They were elected to STOP OBAMA!”

Just wow. I don’t even know where to start. I’ll try not to spend a lot of time on some of yeterday’s races because you all are politically astute enough to know without anybody telling you. I do,as always,have a bunch of opinions that I’ll try to share with you.
What happened to the polls? How biased are they? They were touting a half-dozen races that were supposedly too close to call. We’d been hearing the phony independent Greg Orman was going to defeat Pat Roberts in Kansas. Fortunately republican voters are smarter than that. Roberts won by eleven points.
Braley was supposedly tied with Joni Ernst. She whipped him by 8.
Michelle Nunn was supposedly going to beat Tom Cotton or at least force a January runoff. Cotton got 53%.
There may be a runoff as Ed Gillespie is neck and neck with favorite Mark Warner. He’d been given virtually no chance to win.
The three ladies I featured yesterday, Elyse Stefanik, Mia Love, and Joni Ernst ALL WON!
Right now Rush is talking about the #1 target of unions who they can’t defeat despite three tries in four years,Scott Walker,Wisconsin’s governor. Again,the polls showed the race was very close. All the democrat big guns including the Klintoons were there to whip up the rabble. All Walker did was do his job without whining or complaining. I hope he runs in 2016. (BoB- you need to share him with us,lady.)
The republicans were not elected to change the tone in DC. They weren’t elected to work with Obama to get things done. They were elected to STOP OBAMA! People are still seething about having Obamacare shoved down their throats. They bristle at the thought of this lop-eared cur granting executive amnesty to millions of illegal cockroaches. If they misinterpret why they’re there they will be gone in two years.
Liberals are whining that this election was an anti-incumbent election. They lost the governorships in Massachusetts,Maryland and Illinois. No,this was an anti-DEMOCRAT election. Calls have already started to ‘work together’ with the democrats who’ve been crapping all over them for six years. Funny how it only works one way.
The Clown Prince has called a presser for 2:50 EST today. Coincidentally,that’s the exact time Have Gun Will Travel comes on the Encore Western Channel. Pity. He’s also called the leaders of both parties to the Spite House Friday. The media will say it’s to tell them they all need to work together.
Bullshit. Obama doesn’t want to work with either party at this point. He don’t think he needs them to do whatever he wants to do. It will be more difficult now that Reid can’t protect his ass by stopping any bills from getting a vote in the Senate. He may even have to sign a few of them. But he’s dead set on making amnesty part of his legacy.
The people didn’t want Obamacare,they don’t want amnesty. That’s why yesterday happened.
THE NEW DEMOCRAT THEME SONG:
Mrs. Greenspan ain’t feelin’ it
IT’S JUST A FLESH WOUND!
