Sickening Comparisons Continue

If a comparison with FDR is supposed to be a compliment of "The Chosen One," it had the reverse reaction in me. 

With Obama at the wheel instead of in back, why not compare him to Morgan Freeman in "Driving Miss Daisy," except he may drive us over a cliff.

Help Obama Set Priorities [Updated]

As Obama forms his "ruling" team and prepares to take office, the people who supported Obama want to help him set priorities.  From one site accepting votes on this comes the below ranking, as of this writing.  

Do you remember the big deal about having universal health care?  Pretty important, huh?  Well, look at what they ranked in importance right above that.  

In President Obama’s first 100 days, he needs to:

  1. Invest in clean energy and create 5 million new green jobs
  2. Responsible, Phased Withdrawal of Troops in Iraq (16 months)
  3. Kill the PATRIOT Act
  4. Prosecute criminals in Bush administration
  5. Enact quality, affordable health care for all
  6. Shut down Guantanamo
  7. Restore, Uphold, and Defend the Constitution
  8. Raise Minimum Wage to a Living Wage
  9. End corporate welfare
  10. Stop domestic surveillance

It's amazing how much energy leftists spend in hating Bush, even to the point of ranking his prosecution above life itself.

If you have the stomach for it, you can read the rest of their priorities at the site, too.  Pick out your favorite.  Mine is "Eliminate the IRS!"  I can always find other work.  At least it would keep Obama from raising taxes. 

What would you want Obama to do--besides quit?

[Update] - Yep.  The Democrats got their marching orders from the left and are moving ahead on a high priority issue.  They're going to live in a hate-filled past forever, which is not change but what we've come to expect from them.

Remember Democrat Scares of a Republican Draft?

The Democrats scared kids in past elections by claiming that Republicans would draft them into serving our nation.  How times have changed.  Now, the Democrats want to draft kids into "civil defense service" or "community service" (a racist code word, btw) -- and compensation may not be part of the formula.  We're already seeing forced volunteerism in colleges under the name of "service learning." 

How would you or your kids like to be forced into an involutary national or community service plan--one set up by Obama?  Maybe you would even get to "donate" your time to ACORN!  It's wrong, in my eyes, even if there is compensaton.  Well, Obama is pushing it, although specifics are disappearing from his website as we read.  Here's some insight from an interview with Obama chief of staff Emanuel.

Rahm Emanuel On Compulsory Service Plan

SMITH: I meant to ask you about the universal service piece of the plan.  Can you tell me about it how is this going to work?  Are people going to live in barracks?

EMANUEL:  Universal Civil Defense Training…I think he had it at 18, but we thiinking  somewhere between the ages of 18 and 25, you will do three months of training.  You can do it in your(inaudible).  Some point in college you can do just that. There can be nothing wrong with all Americans having a joint similar experience.

I mentioned this a few days ago on a blog where I quit commenting a couple of years ago and pretend to not comment there now, because G.M. is supposed to shoot me if I do.  Here's the exchange, as it might have happened, had I really done it.

The Fix Is In to "Select' Al Franken

Just like the Democrats did in the 2004 Washington state governor's race, in 2008 the Democrats in Minnesota keep coming up with overlooked votes to help Al Franken who, only for the time being, is behind Republican incumbent Norm Coleman in the vote count for U.S. Senator.

Minnesota Ripe for Election Fraud

Minnesota is becoming to 2008 politics what Florida was in 2000 or Washington State in 2004 -- a real mess. The outcome will determine whether Democrats get 58 members of the U.S. Senate, giving them an effective filibuster-proof vote on many issues.

When voters woke up on Wednesday morning after the election, Senator Norm Coleman led Al Franken by what seemed like a relatively comfortable 725 votes. By Wednesday night, that lead had shrunk to 477. By Thursday night, it was down to 336. By Friday, it was 239. Late Sunday night, the difference had gone down to just 221 -- a total change over 4 days of 504 votes.

Virtually all of Franken’s new votes came from just three out of 4130 precincts, and almost half the gain (246 votes) occurred in one precinct -- a heavily Democratic precinct....

The fix is in--not counting what ACORN has already done.  Will the Republicans have the will to fight this if Franken steals the election?  I doubt it.
