Left’s Spin: An Election About Nothing

ejection day

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.

2014_11 Biden says Dems would hold Senate

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.

GOP old white men

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.”

2014_11 04 Hillary's Losers

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!”

Bwahahaha! The 10th congressional district of Illinois was gerrymandered by state Democrats to make it virtually impossible for a Republican to win. Veteran political analyst Larry J. Sabato of the University of Virginia just switched his guess for the race between incumbent Democrat Brad Schneider and Republican Bob Dold from “Toss-up” to “Leans Republican.”   http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2014/10/30/Shock-Gerrymandered-Chicago-District-Leans-Republican

Okay, so it’s not all fun and games. There are multiple reports of election machines that switch votes and the Dems have a long history of using absentee ballots and illegals to vote fraudulently. Harry Reid and his cronies spew about the Koch Brothers “buying” elections, while they themselves outspend Republicans by millions. And then there’s this piece of RACIST TRASH, the DNC Comms Director, who REFUSES to denounce the shameful tactics Dems are using in Georgia, Arkansas and North Carolina.

Defying the Democrat Memes

Democrats have long coasted on the idea that Republicans were all rich white guys, so obviously, if you want to support women, minorities and working class stiffs, you should avoid the GOP like Ebola. But here is just one of many congressional races that defies these memes. The Democrat is the rich white guy who met his white wife in law school, while the Republican is a younger, working class stiff whose wife is a naturalized citizen from Colombia. Oops.

You want JOBS? Vote Republican.

Let’s take a skinny minute here to understand how our government works.

ALL LAWS (including but not limited to appropriations bills, tax law changes, minimum wage changes, etc.) have to be passed by both the HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES and the SENATE, and then signed by the PRESIDENT.

Got that? There are THREE BODIES required that all must give consent to the SAME LAW before we can be bound by it (unless a Presidential veto is overruled by 2/3 votes in both the House and Senate).

So let’s give the MAJORITY the credit or blame for the economy, shall we? Whichever party holds majority control of two or all three of these bodies — House, Senate, Presidency — OWNS THE RESULTS.

Go look at the figures for yourself. All of the data is available on-line at a GOVERNMENT website. These figures haven’t been “cooked” by the GOP or the Koch Brothers. They’re compiled and published by the Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics.

The graph that shows what percentage of employable Americans have jobs is @ http://data.bls.gov/timeseries/LNS12300000. Below the line graph is a month-by-month chart of employment numbers.

Lowering the bar

Just when you thought Wendy Davis had hit the bottom rung, another Democrat comes along to lower the bar even further.

Check out the ad Dave Domina just released.  Following the footage of a coma patient wearing a Domina t-shirt, the ad brags that Domina “shows up,” “stands up,” and “makes a difference.” Oy. Remember when liberals claimed that Julie Boonstra, Holly Fisher, and others voicing their opposition to Obamacare were just “Republican props”? At least they were conscious and capable of giving consent.

Mother & Daughter

I wouldn’t have had a problem with the mother talking about her daughter, maybe with a photo of her before the accident or something. But having the girl in the ad AND wearing a campaign t-shirt was just beyond the pale. It reminds me of that time when Obama bragged about a cancer patient who asked to be buried in an Obama t-shirt. He didn’t remember her name, but boy howdy, wasn’t it swell that she lurved him so much? Ick.

Earlier this month, Democratic Nebraska Senate candidate Dave Domina was forced to defend his decision to defend Nazi war criminal Ivan Kalymon in 2006. Domina stood by his work, saying that “Mr. Kalymon lived an honorable life in the U.S.” Plus, you know, Domina is “person without biases against other people” and his “own beloved grandchildren are Jewish people.”

I wonder how his pet “Jewish people” felt about his decision?

Domina ads

Fortunately, Domina’s opponent is WAY ahead in the polls.

“I can’t be a Christian and stay in the Democrat party.”

82 Yr Old Grandmother Voting Straight Republican; Tired of Democrats [2:06]

October 22, 2014: Joyce, an 82 year old lifelong black Democrat called C-Span to express her dismay with her party and announce that she voted straight Republican this year. She is dismayed with the Democrats stance on religion, abortion, and the poor effects of Obama’s policies on the black community and the country.

“I have noticed in years what the Democratic party has done to my people. Unemployment is higher in the black community….than anywhere else.

I cannot say, there’s no way I can continue to say that I was a Christian and stay in the Democrat party. They advocate the killing of babies, they advocate taking from the doers and giving to the ones sitting doing nothing…….”

She continued by saying that it is not racist to say that Obama isn’t an effective President. She said it is foolish to play the race card.

“This man is destroying this country…He said he was going to transform American and that is what he is doing.”

Donna Brazile – Oct 13, 2014: 

NIH Director: We’d Probably Have An Ebola Vaccine If Not For Budget Cuts.

If we are going to stop the #EbolaOutbreak or contain it, let’s focus on how to get it done versus pointing fingers.

  • Reply: It’s an outbreak now. But, hey, don’t point fingers, guys!

  • Reply: No finger pointing, says the woman who has spent the last 6 years blaming everybody but Obama.
  • Reply: Hypocrisy, thy name is Donna Brazile.

The Democrat Knee Jerk: “If it’s bad, blame Republicans!”

The latest Lame Democrat Meme is to blame Ebola on Republican budget cuts.

Republican Cuts Kill [1:00]

Let’s get a quick reality check about which party has been in charge of federal spending since January 2007, shall we?

2007 to present Dems have had majority

Now let’s get another quick reality check about how the “Republicans cut CDC funding” is a Big Fat Lie.

2013 GOP votes big incr for CDC

If health-related spending is SO IMPORTANT to Democrats, then how come it was House Republicans who introduced a bill to fund the National Institutes of Health during the government shutdown and Senate Democrats who refused to consider it?

While Dems are frantically trying to separate themselves from Obama and his failed presidency, Teh Won himself is offering up rich fodder for Republican campaign ads.

On November 4, VOTE HERO

MILITARY blood type on boots

When Bush was in office, we heard about military deaths in Iraq and Afghanistan almost daily. The print media published rows and rows of dead soldier photos; the broadcast media interviewed Gold Star Moms weeping; and Democrats running for office chanted off “Bush’s” death toll.

Oddly, after Bush left office, the media and all those weepy Democrats fell silent, despite the fact that our soldiers have continued to fight and die in the Middle East.

Call me cynical, but I think the Left-biased media and the very Left-wing Obamacrats in power don’t actually give a toot about our troops. It was only when a REPUBLICAN was in the White House and another pro-military REPUBLICAN was running to replace him that they pretended to care.

In short, soldiers fighting and dying in military actions sanctioned by a DEMOCRAT president are of no interest to them. The real truth is that Democrats HATE Republicans and will say and do ANYTHING to get and keep power.

Democrats have a long history of short-changing our troops’ benefits and selling them out on the battlefield. This is why most of our soldiers vote Republican. More than 1,000 American soldiers have lost their lives in Afghanistan JUST in the last 27 months! This is more than the combined total of the nine years before. Have you heard a word? No. Why not? Because Democrats DON’T CARE ABOUT OUR TROOPS.

Right now, the Commander In Chief is AWOL. He is not merely indifferent; he is incompetent. He ordered the White House flag flown at half-staff for Sikhs that were killed, but he has done nothing but lie and cheat and stall on issues that matter the most to our nation’s finest.

Since taking office, he has failed to even ATTEND half of his national security briefings and when he does bother to listen to his experts, he does the opposite of what they recommend. Then, as we saw (again) this week, when things go badly, he blames everybody but himself.

The 9/11 attacks were in the planning for FIVE YEARS.  George Bush had been in office EIGHT MONTHS when they occurred.  If anyone was responsible for emboldening Al-Qaeda, it was the Democrat in office before Bush, Bill Clinton.  Funny thing about his wife being Obama’s Secretary of State for the Benghazi attacks, isn’t it?  Makes you think maybe Democrats are really BAD at this foreign policy, national security stuff.

Bush was in office for more than 7 years after 9/11.  During that time, there were no terrorist attacks on America.  Obama and the Democrats who took control of Congress in 2007 all campaigned on the idea that Bush had gone about this whole Global War on Terrorism thing all wrong.  In fact, he was a new Hitler!  A bloody murderer!  ACK!  Put a Democrat in charge and see a kinder, gentler world evolve before your eyes.

Riiiiiiiiiiiiiight.  Obama has had 6 years to prove to us that he was capable of keeping us safe from Muslim extremists.  During this time, he has vacationed, golfed, campaigned, bowed to foreign leaders, armed terrorist and generally ignored the plight of our men and women in uniform (except when he wanted them for a photo op).  For crying out loud, he labeled the Fort Hood shooting “workplace violence”, renamed terrorist attacks “man-caused disasters”, and insisted that Muslim extremists aren’t Muslims!

Obama has made the Rules of Engagement (ROE) so difficult, that our troops are often killed before they can even get permission to fight. Nothing has been done to stop our troops from being murdered by the Afghanis they are training, either.

Now … would you believe? … President Obama wants the US to sign on to the UN’s International Criminal Court (ICC), which would allow the UN’s ICC to arrest and try US troops for War Crimes, without the legal protections guaranteed under US Law, and from which there is no appeal!

With the White House AND the Senate in the hands of Obamacrats, pro-military Republicans can do very little to help our troops. The Republican-majority House of Representatives has passed literally HUNDREDS of bills, many with strong bipartisan support. Senate majority leader, Democrat Harry Reid, throws them in the trash. He won’t even allow them to come to the floor of the Senate for DISCUSSION, never mind a vote.

And who gets the blame, again and again, for the “do nothing Congress”? Republicans. But it is the DEMOCRAT LEADERSHIP that is blocking everything Americans want to get done.

Our troops are getting screwed. But with Obama backed up by Reid’s Democratic majority Senate, the military-hating Left has nearly all the power. We MUST take back the Senate in 2014 so our troops can once again be protected from unnecessary danger.

Please consider this plea as signed in the blood of all the soldiers who have died in OBAMA’S WARS. Then send it on to your mailing lists. Thank you and God bless.
