Ft. Hood: Obama's Crotch Salute

This man is a walking human disgrace. Barack Obama is the President of the US, so why can't he, at least occasionally, act like one? You'll notice that his TelePrompter is blocking the faces of the other military figures who are saluting at the Ft. Hood Memorial Service. Obama is neither saluting nor putting his hand over his heart. I guess his question would be, "Why should I?" As a man who's been anti-military since his teen years, he is mystified by American soldiers, people who are ready to give their lives for their country.

Updates from Scott Brown Campaign

From my buddy Risa Kaplan in the Brown Campaign:"I am at the campaign headquarters, it is fabulous; people from all over. So exciting."

Above are my frequent correspondent, Ralph, and friend going door-to-door in Massachusetts for Scott Brown.

What did the ultimate good guy, Scott Brown, do? He convinced everyone that the race was all about them . . . and that he was not running alone.

Remarkable.

Good luck, Scott. Good luck, America.

Six Ways to Defeat ObamaCare

From the Desk of:
Steve Elliott, Grassfire Nation

We expect the dirty backroom deal on ObamaCare to be
struck this week. But final passage is not yet guaranteed.
See below for six ways ObamaCare can still be defeated
(including the "Massachusetts Miracle").
--Steve

Dear Patriot,

With Harry Reid under the gun for his "negro dialect" comments
and public opposition to ObamaCare continuing to increase,
the pressure is mounting for Democrats to finalize their
backroom deal.

We believe that deal could be struck this week. Reid and
Pelosi will agree to bypass the traditional House-Senate
Conference and rush identical bills back to their chambers
for a final vote.

But with each passing day, their secretive strategy is getting
more difficult.

And although ObamaCare is still likely to pass and be signed
into law, this is not a done deal!

In fact, we have identified six possible scenarios that could
cause ObamaCare to be defeated.

I'll start with the least likely...

#6--Union blues
The left is nearly as angry as the Right, calling the Reid bill
a bailout for the insurance industry. The unions are upset
about the tax on their so-called "Cadillac" health care plans
and want that removed. The Left has held the coalition together
with a "live together, die alone" motto, but politics changes
with the wind. And the Left knows the winds are changing. I
list this first because it is the least likely. But it is
still possible.

#5--One Democrat Senator can't make it to the floor to vote.
Despite the backroom deals and dirty tricks, as we understand
it there will be one more final cloture vote in the Senate.
Rules require 60 votes to invoke cloture. If one Democrat
Senator can't make it to the floor, for any reason (health,
accident, death etc.) they don't have 60 votes.

#4--The Cornhusker Kickback kicks back.
Arnold Schwarzenegger told California's members of Congress
to vote NO unless their state also gets the Cornhusker
Kickback. Now Dems are scrambling to give every state a
kickback. The more talk about kickbacks and the more
uncomfortable everyone is with this entire fiasco.

#3--Abortion issue divides Democrats.
Rep. Bart Stupak has already voiced his opposition to Nelson's
compromise and says he has the votes to stop any abortion-
funding ObamaCare bill. An equal number of House Democrats
have vowed to torpedo any final bill that includes Stupak's
amendment. One group must blink for ObamaCare to pass.

#2--Three House Democrats change their votes.
Abortion is just one of the issues dividing Democrats. Rep.
Cantor has identified 34 House Democrats who are facing a
very difficult vote based on three issues: abortion, Medicare
Advantage, and state budget crises. It is now an election year.
The pressure is building. If three members feel enough heat
to switch their votes, ObamaCare fails.

#1--The Massachusetts Miracle.
The Bay State's special election next week to fill the late
Sen. Kennedy's seat is now a tossup in some polls, and
Republican candidate Scott Brown has pledged to be the
41st vote to block ObamaCare. If Brown is seated before
the final ObamaCare vote, game over. There is already
talk that if Brown wins, Democrats will stall his election
certification in order to keep him from casting the
deciding vote.

The special election is next Tuesday (1/19), before any final
votes will be cast on ObamaCare. If a Republican takes Teddy
Kennedy's seat, I say all bets are off. Democrats from
coast-to-coast will suddenly get a lot more nervous about
voting for ObamaCare. Unlike old king Belshazzar in the
book of Daniel, they won't need a prophet to interpret the
"handwriting on the wall" -- vote now for ObamaCare and
get defeated in November.

Scott Brown Campaign: Our "Gettysburg"

All hands on deck! The Jan. 19 special election may be our Gettysburg! [This is a guest column from a great national activist whose handle is "Tempus Sans."]

Please realize folks that the special election in Mass. on Jan. 19 to replace the late Ted Kennedy would be a complete turning point for us if Republican Scott Brown wins. He would be the 41st vote we need to stop the Obama, reid, pelosi agenda. Even if Obamacare goes through, this would stop cap n trade, and stop the most damaging illegal immigration reform ever set forth by a congress and a president.

The Dems are positioning themselves to make all 20 million illegals instantly legal, securing enough votes to give the dems indefinite power. Scott Brown's election would stop all this dead in its tracks. Scott Brown was only recently 30 pts behind Martha Coakley and has surged to within a few percentage points. He desperately needs money and people to make phone calls for him(boots on the ground). There is nothing more important then this race right now!

FactCheck, Snopes, Mostly Bogus

Some of my dear friends occasionally send me information that they "verified" through FactCheck.org or "Snopes." I always wince.

Neither FactCheck nor Snopes is some vast enterprise of truth-seekers. In fact, they're both staffed by a few Obamabots who rarely find anything wrong with anything -- no matter how preposterous -- that BHO and his minions say or do.

Who do you think the man are woman are abover?

They're Jess Henig and Joe Miller, two charter members of the Obama Adoration Society (OAS). They ARE FactCheck.org.

To paraphrase Bugs Bunny, "They're all, folks."

FactCheck.Org declared that Obama's computer-generated certificate of live birth (COLB, see above) was "authentic." Barack Obama was born in August, 1061. THERE WERE NO COMPUTERS THEN -- at least ones any smaller than a football field.

Jess and Joe "verified" it. Case closed, right? Nope.

Jess and Joe have absolutely no forensic skills. (I have a hunch B. Hussein knew that.)

Actually, above is the only known authentic copy of Obama's birth certificate. It was authenticated by the aforesaid Mr. Bunny.

Simple Points for GOP Victories

As Republicans, we need to make some simple points to people who are rich and poor, Black and White: Our approach will make a better life for you and your family. We won't give you a handout, but we will give you a hand up. The success of your life depends not on government, but on your own initiative and hard work. If you have those qualities, we will support you every step of the way.

Above all, we need to avoid talking people to death. Our points have to be simple and clear.

BrowN Drawing Even in Massachusetts

n Dear Friends: This morning on FOX News Democratic pollster Doug Schoen said that with a "most likely voter" poll, conservative Republican Senate candidate Scott Brown in MA has drawn within TWO percentage points of his far-left Democrat opponent (Martha Coakley).

This is wonderful news, but we have more work to do to make sure Scott wins in the Jan. 19 special election. [NOTE: SCROLL DOWN FOR INFORMATION ON PHONE CALLS.)

If Scott Brown wins on Jan. 19, he will be a strong opponent of ObamaCare; he will vote against the Cap-and-Tax bill; he will oppose tax increases. He will vote against the liberals' socialization of nearly everything. Unlike Coakley and Obama, Scott does not shrink away from using the phrase "War on Terror."

In contrast, his opponent will be another robotic liberal, one in favor of everything on Obama's, Pelosi's, and Reid's destructive agenda.

Scott would be the critical 41st vote in the U.S. Senate.
http://www.brownforussenate.com/

His election would be mark the beginning of the end of the Obama presidency.

What about Scott's opponent, Martha Coakley? There's an excellent piece out on her today, and I urge you to read it (see link below). She's a symbol of everything that's wrong with American politics.

Martha Coakley: Our Nightmare Scenario Rabid Republican Blog
http://rabidrepublicanblog.com/2009/12/29/martha-coakley-our-nightmare-scenario/

One woman told me that her family's difficult financial circumstances made it impossible right now for her to donate to Scott's campaign. But she told me she was praying for Scott; I told her that was more than enough.

Yes, if you can, please donate to Scott at his web site. Just as important, you can learn on his site how to can call into in MA for Scott from your home phone. Activists are making tens of thousands of such calls from nearly every state in the union.

If Scott wins by a relative handful of votes, you will have made the difference.

I hope youi'll make such calls. You can make 20 of them -- or you can make a thousand. On my blog today (www.stevemaloneygop.blogspot.com), I'll put up a short piece about making such calls painlessly -- and effectively.

The battle for the Massachusetts Senate seat is one of the most important races in my lifetime. We are so close to winning it that all of us can taste it.

Please give Scott every type of help you can provide. And God bless all of you for the heroic work you've already done.

MAKING PHONE CALLS FOR A CANDIDATE

On phone calls: if you make 20 of them on behalf of a candidate, you can get him or her 1-2-3extra votes. If you make 20,000 (!!!!), as my friend Sharon Caliendo of Oklahoma did, you can get your candidate(s) roughly 500-1000 additional votes. You'll induce people to go vote who would otherwise stay home.

You can learn how to make phone calls from your home to any state. See how it works by going to Senate candidate Scott Brown's web site: www.brownforussenate.com. After you visit, please make at least a few phone calls for Scott, who is very close to victory in that critical election.

When a candidate gives you a script to use on his or her behalf, look at it carefully. Make sure it's up-to-date (often they aren't). Also, make sure each word is one you'd use in real life. For example, if the script contains the word "country" and you'd be more comfortable using "nation," then make the change.

When you make the calls, you should be giving the recipient (note: you'll get a lot of voice mails), at least one good reason (e.g., "He's committed to reducing taxes") to vote for your candidate . . . and asking them to vote for a specific candidate (e.g., Scott Brown) on a particular day (Jan. 19, 2009).

Be confident and positive -- no monotones -- as you deliver your message. NEVER fight with a caller about candidates or issues. If you get any resistance -- and that will be rare -- thank the person for his or her time and then go on to the next call. You're calling to make friends for your candidate; your secondary purpose is to avoid making enemies.

If someone asks you a question -- this will be rare also -- where you don't know the answer, tell the person you will find out the answer . . . and call back. Then, do it.

What you're aiming for is something that might sound contradictory: controlled enthusiasm. You are going to be making one phone call after another . . . to help your candidate win. If you're really on your game, you should be able to make 30--35 phone calls per hour.

Your script should be no more than 100 words. To the greatest degree possible, they should be words that convey positive emotions. Psych yourself up if necessary.

One useful tactic: call up your own voice mail and then see how well you did. Were there any words that didn't "work?" Were you enthusiastic -- but not to the point of silliness?

With some calls, the candidate may ask you to do a survey, such as asking recipients if they've made a decision yet on a candidate. Note: Don't ever mention the opponent's name (in this case, Martha Coakley). You may ask something like this: "Have you decided yet whether you'll vote for Scott Brown . . . or his opponent?") If you're asking such questions, you are indeed conducting a survey. If you can mention Scott's name a couple of times it will help him, because his "name recognition" is not as good yet as it could be.

As with almost anything life, phone calls are mainly a matter of you using common sense. What would work with you will work with the people you call?

When I was making calls for McCain-Palin, I used to say, "Hello, my name is Steve Maloney . . . from Ambridge, PA . . . and I'm calling on behalf of Sen. John McCain and Gov. Sarah Palin . . .

When you start making calls, you'll be surprised at how quickly you'll get good at it. If you have any questions, contact me at: TalkTop65@aol.com.

Please pass this information on to any candidate you know. Thanks and God bless.

MA: Scott Brown Getting Closer

A current Rasmussen Poll has Martha Coakley (D) leading Scott Brown (R) by 9% (50-41, with 7% undecided) in the Massachusetts race for the seat formerly held by Teddy Kennedy.

Brown has steadily been cutting into Coakley's lead, and the massive support he's receiving from you and other onliners is making a difference. The special election will be held on January 19, two weeks from today.

The dynamics of this race are working in Brown's favor. His opponent, Martha Coakley, would make about as good a U.S. Senator as she would a partridge in a pear tree. It's an off-year, off-month election, and Scott Brown has all the momentum.

How can we bring Scott across the finish line a few inches ahead of his opponent? By doing what we've done so far -- contributing money and volunteering to make phone calls -- only to do more of them.

www.brownforussenate.com

Scott is a conservative Republican, opposed to the health care monstrosity and to the Cap-and-Tax abomination. Let's do everything we can to put this good man in the U.S. Senate.

When a Democrat candidate (Coakley) in Massachusetts, is polling 50% or less, her campaign is not exactly in high gear.

This race is winnable. I've always believed that and still do. Thanks for your help.

Republican Candidates: Winning in 2010

Starting today, I'll be sending out mailings (from time to time) directed at candidates, and I'm going to put you on the list as a possible candidate for US Senate from Hawaii.

[Note: Scott Brown's website is at: http://www.brownforussenate.com/ ]

There is a big problem with the "traditional" topdown way of running for office. Over-reliance on Beltway types, including John Cornyn at the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) and Pete Sessions at the Republican Campaign Congressional Committee (RCCC), is a disaster.

The NRSC has invested significant money in two primary campaigns in this decade: the Arlen Specter race against conservative Pat Toomey in 2004 and the Lincoln Chaffee race in 2006. In other words, the NRSC spent significant money in primaries backing the two most liberal Republicans in the Senate. (Chaffee won the primary and lost the general. Arlen Specter? Read on . . . )

This year, John Cornyn endorsed Arlen Specter against Toomey, just before Arlen admitted he was in fact a liberal Democrat. Cornyn also endorsed liberal FL Republican Charlie Crist who, it turns out, has no chance of winning the Florida primary against conservative Marco Rubio.

As for Pete Sessions and RCCC: the biggest investment they've made recently has been the nearly one million dollars spent on backing Dede Scozzafava in the New York 23d congressional race. Of course, Scozzafava, before she endorsed the liberal Democrat Bill Owens (who won in a close race), dropped out because she had little support.

Who in his or her right mind is going to contribute to the NRSC or the RCCC?

If conservative Republican candidates want support from the vast Tea Party movement, they had better prepare to take several of them to DC to work on their congressional or senatorial staffs.

There are in fact ways that a young woman could become a member of the US Senate from Hawaii. It might not happen in a race this year against left-wing Democrat Inouye. It could happen in a future race against left-wing Senator Akaka. (There is a Republican Governor, Linda Lingle, in that state where Republicans supposedly can't win.)

Rhode Island may be the most liberal state in the Union. But it has a conservative Republican Governor. In Joe Biden's liberal Delaware, a Republican candidate for the US Senate (Mike Castle) is running well ahead in the polls.

There are ways to win uphill (even "up mountain") races. One way is to turn the race into a national crusade, as Rubio has done in Florida). Other people who have "nationalized" their races effectively were Barack Obama, Bob McDonnell (in VA), and Chris Christie in NJ.

Many of us are trying to use the same approach with Scott Brown, who's running for the US Senate from Massachusetts and, guess what, it's working. The Scott Brown campaign has reported a tremendous upsurge in online donations and volunteers. I played a role in that . . . and so have many other activists.

I believe all the candidates I'm supporting can win -- and will win if they wage 21st century campaigns. They will not win if they follow the 19th century approach favored by so many Beltway types.

Political superstar Cindy Reidhead in New Mexico said a year ago about political races: "The one who has the best e-mail list . . . wins." What was Cindy talking about? Consider the following comment by David Plouffe, who ran Obama's "digital campaign":

"Our e-mail list [in the Obama Campaign] had reached 13 million people [an average of 27,000 for each congressional district].

"We had essentially created our own television network, only better, because we communicated with no filter to what would amount to about 20 percent of the total number of votes we would need to win.

"And those supporters would share our positive message or response to an attack, whether through orchestrated campaign activity like door-knocking or phone calling or just in conversations they had each day with friends, family, and colleagues." (p. 364 of Plouffe's The Audacity to Win)

Why did McCain lose? Let me count the ways . . . starting with the vast difference between his e-mail list and Obama's. When Obama had thousands of Bloggers backing him, McCain (literally) had dozens.

If you as a candidate do everything right, including a heavy reliance on digital technology, you will win your election . . . even when your opponent has more money. If you read only one book between now and Election Day, it probably should be Plouffe's.

If you don't have time to read that book, read this analysis of it:

Obama's Presidency: A Colossal Failure

Below, you'll see Rex Murphy's superb column in the Toronto Globe and Mail. His point -- and who would dispute it? -- is that, not-yet-one-year-into-the-Obama-presidency -- we are already tired of the preposterous man who occupies the White House. Whatever or whoever you might be, Barack, all we ask is that you be gone.

I think Time went to the relatively faceless functionary Bernanke mainly not to name Barack Obama. Time, like a lot of its fellows in the wild world of the contemporary U.S. media, is in an awkward place with regards to Mr. Obama. Having devoted so much incense to his remarkable ascendancy, a great swath of his country's press is looking for a convenient and not too noticeable off-ramp while it – shall we say – recalibrates its enthusiasm.

It's an uncomfortable pivot from the audacity of hope to buyer's remorse. Very uncomfortable for those in the media who played the cheerleader for Mr. Obama, who skated by controversies that would have sunk other candidates or abandoned the ruthless investigations they would have pressed on less congenial candidates.

The ferocity they applied to the Republican vice-presidential candidate, Sarah Palin, in contrast with the timidity they brought to his campaign, will in time come to be seen as one of the most shameful episodes in American journalism. Not so much for what they did to Ms. Palin, but for what they neglected to do in examining the candidate for the office that really counted. In some curious way, the U.S. media's bulldogging of Ms. Palin was kind of an inverted compensation for what they weren't doing to him.

Well, the bands have stopped playing for Barack Obama. At the end of 2009, the poll numbers have dropped mercilessly. He may yet get his health reform package, but only in the teeth of great public resistance. More Americans simply don't like what he's doing with health care than do. The great “cool” of Mr. Obama – essentially all those qualities that marked him as the non-George Bush, the anti-George Bush – is wearing a little thin now that Mr. Bush is really no longer a figure in play.

That cool now is seen as a troubling lack of affect, an unsettling passionlessness. What really, in his public role, captures or commands the fundamental energies of Mr. Obama? What are his core convictions and aspirations? It's very hard to tell.

His eloquence is fading, more people now find it more a trick of rhythm and cadence – a mannerism – rather than felt thought in memorable language. His recent statement to an anxious America after the Christmas Day bomb plot was flat, off-key and utterly unpersuasive. He went to Copenhagen, played the frantic for the better part of a day and came home essentially empty-handed. Hugo Chavez is mocking him in precisely the same terms as he mocked poor Mr. Bush.

Most of all, Mr. Obama has exploded his own credentials as the agent of (genuine) hope and change. The promise to remodel the essentially harsh nature of modern politics, to seek transformation in the tone and substance of public life, to end Washington's buying and selling, is seen now, and seen very reluctantly such was the real hope he inspired, as empty. His White House is as dagger partisan as Richard Nixon's.

Almost a full year into his presidency, Mr. Obama is at a dangerous point. His ability to inspire has all but departed. The novelty of his historic ascension is over. And, late though it be, there are now questions about his effectiveness. As there are also doubts about whether that magnificently cool presence – his much-touted ability to distance himself from the turbulence and passions of those around him – springs from a fear of being overwhelmed by events rather than a confidence in mastering them.

No wonder Time gave him a pass.

Scott Brown: Taking Back America

A big salute to all those Patriots -- people like you -- who've embraced the Scott Brown Campaign for US Senate . . . and asked your friends and family members to do the same. Scott Brown's "people" (i.e., individuals just like us) have been overwhelmed by the support they're getting from the online community.

As you know, the election is on Jan. 19, 2010. So, it's an off-year (and even an off-month) election. And in the middle of January, it being MA, there will probably be a monumental snowstorm.

All such factors work in Scott's favor, because he'll get the votes of every sane Bay Stater repulsed by the three-headed monster: Obama, Pelosi, and Reid.

How do we win this race that once looked unwinnable? By contributing our money -- even $10 or $20 would help -- and our time. Scott has a great system at his web site for individuals to call-into MA from out-of-state. www.brownforusscenate.com .

Support Scott -- and then ask everyone you know to do the same.

[Note: Please tell your friends and associates that this web site is up-and-running again, with 6-7 columns per week. Thanks.]
Scott is a conservative. In fact, he will be the most conservative Senator elected from MA since . . . Senator John F. Kennedy, who nowadays would be denounced by liberals as "a dangerous right-winger." JFK loved our country, and he knew that in a recession you don't raise taxes -- instead, you cut them. And as a man with chronic ailments, JFK had no desire to turn our health system into one resembling Bulgaria's.

Scott Brown is committed to voting to repeal the health care monstrosity Reid and Pelosi are busy hatching. He's against the Cap-and-Tax legislation. He's in favor of reducing our taxes. And, unlike Obama, he's not afraid to use the phrase "war on terror."

You may ask . . .
What about Scott's opponent, one Martha Coakley? She's another one of those Massachusetts liberals (think: John Kerry) whose ambitions are as unlimited as her talents are nonexistent. As a member of the Massachusetts legal community, she specialized in ferocious prosecutions of people who were clearly innocent. In many ways, she's a lot like her hero, Barack Hussein Obama, who's described accurately in a Jan. 2 article by Geoffrey P. Hunt (following):

American Thinker: Another Failed Presidency

http://www.americanthinker.com/2009/08/another_failed_presidency.html

". . . This president. It's not so much that he's a phony, knows nothing about economics, is historically illiterate, and woefully small minded for the size of the task-- all contributory of course. It's that he's not one of us. And whatever he is, his profile is fuzzy and devoid of content, like a cardboard cutout made from delaminated corrugated paper. Moreover, he doesn't command our respect and is unable to appeal to our own common sense. His notions of right and wrong are repugnant and how things work just don't add up. They are not existential. His descriptions of the world we live in don't make sense and don't correspond with our experience.

"In the meantime, while we've been struggling to take a measurement of this man, he's dissed just about every one of us--financiers, energy producers, banks, insurance executives, police officers, doctors, nurses, hospital administrators, post office workers, and anybody else who has a non-green job. Expect Obama to lament at his last press conference in 2012: 'For those of you I offended, I apologize. For those of you who were not offended, you just didn't give me enough time; if only I'd had a second term, I could have offended you too.'"

The beginning of the end for the absurd Obama "presidency" began with our victories in VA and NJ. If we can win in Massachusetts, as I believe we can, we can win everywhere. Please ask everyone you know to rally behind Scott.

God bless you all.

Update: Scott Brown's candidacy for the U.S. Senate in Massachusetts is getting a tremendous response from the online community (i.e., people like you). They're raising a significant amount of money -- and adding many volunteers. Please go to Scott's web site to see how you can help him in this critical race. (The special election will be on Jan. 19.)

Recommendations for Challengers Running for Office

I recommend that all challengers gather their long "lists" of volunteers and financial supporters . . . and that they hold as many "Town Halls" as possible, whether they have ten participants or a thousand. They need to talk soon to every person who has regular contacts with others . . . including barbers, hair dressers, insurance salespeople, cops, principals, ministers, and others. They also need to do something most people hate: ask everybody for money, including very small donations. They should rely more on radio than on TV -- drive-time and talk radio. Radio is inexpensive, TV isn't.

A candidate to keep an eye on: Les Phillip in Alabama's 5th congressional district (Huntsville area). Les is a Black conservative running against Parker Griffith, who recently switched to the Republican caucus. He could use your help.
