You Know, Jay … Just So We’re Clear Going Into The 2012 Election Cycle

Pretty much everyhting I have said since January to this point, including this current "Labor Day" episode, regarding colorful political battle rhetoric post-Tucson shooting is laid-out at HotAir, so I'll just say, "Ditto!"
The background on what is being discussed between ABC's Jake Tapper and Obama's apologist Jay Carney is here.

But you have to give a [...]

Of Jugs and Jugheads

Jane Fonda (warning) likes to fancy herself a righteous activist. We all know Jane from her romantic NVA gun-straddling days during the Vietnam War as those pesky American POWs insisted on being tortured, starved, beaten, and killed. But what you probably don't know is dear Jane is pining for the one she let get away. [...]

Ignorant Leftist MSNBC Boob Demands Sen. Marco Rubio Debate Him

Honestly, Ed … You REALLY want a ‘split screen’ with yourself and Marco Rubio?
Physical aesthetics aside, the unchained Marxist lunacy you wouldn't be able to contain in order to carry through a true 'debate' would make it an even uglier image. Rubio would barely need to exhale a word to show your ignorance and stupidity.
Bring [...]

The Self-Inflicted Wounds of Audacity and Frustration

Right now I would wager there are more families, such as mine, that haven't had a family vacation of any sort in at least two years. But in those two years, those who really oppose Barack Obama decry his and his wife's numerous, lavish and pricey vacations all over the world, especially in the middle [...]

John Kerry Stomps His Foot With The MSM Over Being Too “Fair and Balanced”

John "F-ing" Kerry demands the MSM stop giving equal voice to the TEA Party and opposition to Obama's agenda...
Um, censorship, anyone?

What I find even more disturbing not one person sitting on that MSNBC panel of the Morning Joe program challenged him.
Glenn Beck and Co. analyzes it ...

HT: Glenn Beck
Think he would have made a good [...]

How Bad is Obama’s Shamefully Shameless Love Affair with The World’s Dictators?

You know, I distinctly recall hearing, for years, those who support liberal/leftist/democrat politicians, like Obama, griping about how the U.S. has always done business with and/or catered to the world's dictators, and that was/is the core of our problems around the world. But with Obama he's sorta kinda like Cyrus from that 1970s cult movie [...]

He Thinks We Are Ignorant Frogs To Be Boiled Slowly … Update Added

Yes. Yes. Yes. But he said the same thing just a year ago. The fear for consumers then was the threat we would be seeing $3/gallon gasoline. Right now you will see more gas station signs with just at or over $4/gallon. The reasons we have seen this increase in just a year are obvious. [...]

UPDATED – Ragin Cajuns Take Charge on LSU’s Campus

UPDATE: As promised, my guy Howie @ CW talked by phone with Austin Stukins (the former Marine in one of the videos below) and you can read about it here: LSU Students Say Not On MY Watch
Austin Stukins will now be a contributor to Chandler's Watch, and from what I hear, The Hayride down in [...]

Protest-Chic: Only Thing Missing is Che’s Ugly Mug

Actually, I'm serious about the Che image. But then that would be too much an admission of where our nation is being dragged to. It's not the first time the American Flag has been used in fashion clothing, Old Navy's life-blood is using the American Flag on their clothing. Usually it's done respectfully. However, if [...]

AG Eric Holder … Public Enemy #1

Yes, we are concentrating on the financial and employment disaster going on right now within this country. Rightly so that when the 2012 POTUS election cycle comes around the old question should be used by the GOP ticket: "Are you better-off now than you were four years ago?"
However, what's going on under the radar of [...]

Loretta Sanchez Dons A Mocking Southern Accent To Chide Tea Party Republicans for Stressing The Constitution

The more I hear of this woman the more she disgusts me ...

I am certain if someone dared mock Loretta Sanchez in this manner, using a Mexican accent, there would be outrage beyond compare.
Sanchez describes herself as growing up a "shy, quiet girl" who did not speak English. She credits government with much of her [...]

How Out of Touch is Our Elitist Elected Class With The American People?

Right now three of my Marines are deployed ... One in Afghanistan, and the other two had their deployments bumped up by weeks/months to deploy to US Navy ships floating off the coast of Libya. All three left wives and children and bills behind. With all the damn crap about unions' rights and collective bargaining [...]

And What Then Will Those French “Youths” Have To Burn in Paris?

As this junk science evolves into junk politics, and junk governing into a Western socialist dictatorship over the world's population it must be said we have inflicted a pox upon ourselves by allowing an unchallenged voice to this cult of global warming hoax.
George Orwell said, "There are some ideas so absurd that only an intellectual [...]

And Now The Slime-Glistening Underbelly of Socialist Tyranny

As usual, these people speak for themselves. For all the blasting of the Tea Party over the last two years are violent and radical, and even dangerous, there has never been one shred of evidence to back that up. No buildings have ever been damaged. No property ever trashed ... as a matter of fact, [...]

Eeny-Meeny-Miney-Moe, These Dictators Get To Stay While These Dictators Must Go

From Zelaya in Honduras, to Mubarak in Egypt, and now Qaddaffi in Libya, Obama seems to have selective dictator appreciation. But the most striking and stark dictator discrimination Obama apparently has is that of Cuba's castro and "Mini-Me" Chavez in Venezuela. Those two cats are A-OK to Barry ...
When Venezuela’s Hugo Chávez flew to Tripoli [...]

Once Again Obama Defaults To “Bush’s Plan”

Obama: Say! Hey! Know what's a good idea? Let's have military tribunals in Gitmo for the terrorists, huh? Is that a great idea or what?
The fact is, the military trials that were in progress in Guantanamo Bay (some nearing conclusion) were either put on hold indefinitely or tossed out, including that of KSM and the [...]

Union Guy: “Why Do You Have A Right To Your Money?”

A lot of good stuff in here.

FOX News reporter Mike Tobin has had a heck of a time reporting the last few weeks from the socialist/union frontline in Madison, WI. He has had a chorus of protestors crowding his live shots and shouting "FOX News lies!" I am told what they are claiming FOX News [...]

Here We Go, Guys … The Union’s “Brownshirts”

I told you ... I just don't like this aspect of what's going on. The Oath or the unions?
PJM: L.A. Police Union Urges Members to ‘Stand in Solidarity’ with SEIU and MoveOn.Org
LAPD cops were asked to pick up picket signs and march alongside a bunch of leftist kooks and government bureaucrats to show encouragement to [...]

Madison Is Cairo? Maybe for Certain News Outlets and Reporters

I really like Robert's post below. His perspective is something I pretty much hold about the "rank and file" of the union memberships. My neighbor guy is retired, but an AFL-CIO, my bad, UAW union guy. He would never do the ugly things we have been hearing and seeing coming out of Madison, WI. in [...]

Obama’s Infantry

This is a lesson in the left's hijacking of terminology, words and meanings that has been going on for decades, and is one of this man's primary tools when interacting and addressing the American people.

So, how does he begin to do just that?
With this nation's pressing economic crisis the government is making drastic cuts (even [...]
