Quote of the Day – Alan Dershowitz Edition Part 2

“It should never have been allowed. She should have been told by her attorney that the law is clear, that once you open up an area of inquiry for interrogation, you have to respond, Now she may have made a political decision that it’s worth it to take the risk . . . That’s just not the way the law works. It may be the way politics works . . . but she can’t invoke the Fifth.”

Attorney Alan Dershowitz on Lerner invoking the Fifth Amendment yesterday during her congressional testimony.

 

Quote of the Day – Lizz Winstead Edition

‘This tornado is in Oklahoma so clearly it has been ordered to only target conservatives,’

Lizz Winstead, co-creator of The Daily Show and all around idiot.

Yes I am sure that the young children who apparently drowned in that school were right-wing nut jobs.

She has since apologized saying she didn’t understand the gravity of the situation.  I guess if only fewer people died or it was just people losing everything that they owned it would have been fine.

Quote of the Day – Piers Morgan Edition Part 3

“I’ve had some of the gun, pro-gun lobbyists on here, saying to me, ‘Well, the reason we need to be armed is because of tyranny from our own government,’ and I’ve always laughed at them. And I’ve always said ‘don’t be so ridiculous, your own government won’t turn itself on you.’ But, actually, when you look at this–this has nothing to do with guns–but actually this is vaguely tyrannical behavior by the American government. I think what the IRS did is bordering on tyrannical behavior, I think what the Department of Justice has done, actually, to the AP, is bordering on tyrannical behavior.”

Another liberal having reality hitting them in the face.

Quote of the Day – Democratic Strategist

“Politicians, overall as a trade, are in the bottom of the outhouse,” he said. “And the reason is, they talk out of the side of their mouths, most of them. . . . The fact that Ken Cuccinelli’s talking out of the front of his mouth and not the side of his mouth, I think, is refreshing to everybody, whether you agree with him or not.”

A democratic strategist on Ken Cuccinelli formally becoming the nominee for governor in Virginia.

You’re damn skippy.  I know I respect people who say what they mean, and mean what they say.

Quote of the Day – David Axelrod Edition

“The government is so vast”

This is more like the quote of the year.

Duh.  That is the problem you asshat.

Quote of the Day – Jay Leno Edition

‘I Was Going to Start Off Tonight With an Obama Joke But I Don’t Want to Get Audited by the IRS’

Jay Leno

Truly Nixonian.

Quote of the Day – Meghan Kelly Edition

“Hillary stood in front of those caskets and talked about that video which she knew didn’t exist.”

In a sensible world this would disqualify her from the presidency.  But we don’t live in a sensible world.

Quote of the Day – Charles Ramsey Edition

 ”I get a Paycheck. Give the reward to the girls they rescued.”

Charles Ramsey, who helped rescue those women in Cleveland, answering the question posed by CNN’s Anderson Cooper if he wanted a reward.

This is a man to admire.

Quote of the Day – Shelia Jackson Lee Edition Part 2

“I think that what should be continuously emphasized is the President’s leadership on one single point: that although healthcare was not listed per se in the Constitution, it should be a constitutional right,”

Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee

Well at least she admits that it isn’t a constitutional right.  What I would like to know what exactly isn’t a “right” to this woman?  Oh yeah, guns.  The 2nd Amendment be damned.

Quote of the Day – Selfish Anonymous Dad to Be

As horrible as this might sound, we found ourselves wishing these twins away.

We considered a reduction for about 30 seconds. (That’s essentially an abortion of one twin, not both.) If you thought that IVF involved playing God, a reduction felt beyond brazen — Machiavellian, even. Give us a reason, we thought, as we had the twins tested for genetic anomalies. None came.

Two blessings, two bundles of joy. How could you not be happy, you ask? Of course I’m sympathetic to people who can’t get pregnant, or who spend a couple of years trying IVF after IVF. But having kids is a selfish endeavor, and in these cases it’s all very relative and highly personal. In our case, my wife and I know better than to think that life with three children is going to be perfect.

An anonymous dad to be.  Selfish to the bone.  Yeah it is easy for me to judge as I never had twins.  But the point is that having children isn’t a vanity thing.  It is hard work.  In many ways twins are somewhat easier because they will keep each other occupied as they grow and mature.  I do have friends that have twins, and not one of them has ever expressed anything even remotely close to this.  We are really in sad shape as a society.

Seriously, I can think of four woman off the top of my head that cannot have children.  They would give almost anything to be in this “mess”.

RTR if you dare.  They were hoping for some genetic issues to justify aborting one.  Wow, I am sure the children will be happy as all get out to hear that story one day.

Quote of the Day – Ed Cameron Edition

“Are you human?”

Ed Cameron, Prosecutor of Dr. Kermit Gosnell 

I am sure he is human, what I question is does he have a soul?  

Quote(s) of the Day – Gay Marriage Edition

“The gay movement, whether we acknowledge it or not, is not a civil rights movement, not even a sexual liberation movement, but a moral revolution aimed at changing people’s view of homosexuality.”

Paul Varnell.

Yes, but many of us already knew that.

“Being queer means pushing the parameters of sex and family, and in the process, transforming the very fabric of society. … We must keep our eyes on the goal … of radically reordering society’s views of reality.”

Paula Ettelbridge

See I thought that being “queer” meant that you attracted to members of the same-sex.  Silly me.

“… fighting for gay marriage generally involves lying about what we are going to do with marriage when we get there—because we lie that the institution of marriage is not going to change, and that is a lie. The institution of marriage is going to change, and it should change. And again, I don’t think it should exist.”

Masha Gessen

Ding, ding, ding.  I fully understand that there are honest people who want nothing more than the same rights afforded under our tax codes and legal protections for themselves that heterosexual married people get.  But that doesn’t change the fact that is not the goal here.  If it were, this problem would be long since solved.  I know very few that would be against giving those benefits to committed couples that live together, regardless of gender and sexual orientation.  Most agree on that.  This is about forcing your views that my beliefs are bad, outdated, and somehow harmful to society.

H/T to Iain’s Wife

Quote of the Day – Jillian Keenan Edition

Yes, really. While the Supreme Court and the rest of us are all focused on the human right of marriage equality, let’s not forget that the fight doesn’t end with same-sex marriage. We need to legalize polygamy, too. Legalized polygamy in the United States is the constitutional, feminist, and sex-positive choice. More importantly, it would actually help protect, empower, and strengthen women, children, and families.

I don’t think any further comment is necessary.

RTR here.

Quote of the Day – Richard Falk Edition

“It is soon to tell, and the somewhat hysterical Boston dragnet for the remaining at large and alive suspect does suggest that the wounds of 9/11 are far from healed.”

Richard Falk, UN Human Rights Council’s Palestine monitor on the Boston Bombings.

I suppose we were supposed to let these bombers go and be free to kill and maim more people according to this asshat.    Yes we are a little sensitive about another 9/11.  We are a little sensitive about people killing our citizens for no other reason than some twisted ideology based upon a radical version of Islam.

It is well past time that we stop giving millions upon millions to the United Nations.

 

Quote of the Day – Alex Conant Edition

We haven’t had a cohort of people living permanently in US without full rights of citizenship since slavery.

Alex Conant is the media spokesperson for Senator Marco Rubio.

Oh my.  I am just shaking my head.  I have been somewhat supportive of Rubio’s plan on immigration.  I am of the mind that we need to actually solve the problem because it will just continue to get worse unless we do.

But to say something like this.  I am in utter disbelief that someone that works for a senator would say something like this.  Um, slaves didn’t come here voluntarily and break our laws while doing so.

This is not the way to win over the conservative base that Rubio will need to get this passed.  This man really hurt his boss today and hurt the chances of us getting something done that may have a chance of securing our borders.

Dumbass.

Quote of the Day – Mark Levin Edition

While I oppose the immigration bill, given the border-security issue and Obama’s record of non-enforcement, among other things, I regret linking to a post that refers to Senator Rubio as a slick used car salesman.  He is earnest and thoughtful and deserves much better.  He loves his country and means well, unlike too many politicians.  There are slick used car salesmen on Capitol Hill, many come to mind, but Rubio is certainly not one of them.

Also, while I’m on the subject, there are bloggers, columnists, and radio hosts who will personally trash Rubio because they think that shows how tough they are on illegal immigration or how conservative they are.  Actually, they are pretenders.  Most of them have done nothing on this issue or for the conservative movement.  Landmark Legal Foundation has been involved in every recent, major piece of litigation against the Obama administration involving illegal immigration, including assisting Arizona in its defense of its law and borders.  We went all the way to the Supreme Court.  I don’t recall any of these “tough” guys and gals behind their computers and microphones lifting a finger.  None of them.  Talk is cheap, and many of them are frauds.

Yes, many of them are.

Quote of the Day – Donna Brazile Edition Part 2

Remove legal and safe options for abortion, and women are forced to turn to people like Kermit Gosnell

Um, abortion is legal.  The entire point that the left makes is that it must be legal in order to be safe.  I want Donna Brazile to go and say this sentance to the victims of Kermit Gosnell.

Quote of the Day – Kirsten Powers Edition Part 2

Let me state the obvious. This should be front page news. When Rush Limbaugh attacked Sandra Fluke, there was non-stop media hysteria. The venerable NBC Nightly News’ Brian Williams intoned, ”A firestorm of outrage from women after a crude tirade from Rush Limbaugh,” as he teased a segment on the brouhaha. Yet, accusations of babies having their heads severed — a major human rights story if there ever was one — doesn’t make the cut.”

Kirsten Powers in an OP-ED on the lack of media coverage of the Gosnell murder trial.

If there was ever proof that the media is totally biased and therefore more or less dead, this is it.  This is a man who killed and tortured babies.  Not a fetus, not a bunch of cells, but babies that were born alive and then murdered in a cold-blooded fashion.

We now live in a country where the media is no longer reporting the news, but pushing an agenda.  An agenda that includes the cover-up of infanticide.  You see if people knew, really knew and understood, the horrors of what happened in that butcher’s house we may just be having a discussion on limiting abortions in this country, much the same as we are discussing limited gun rights after Newtown.  The media doesn’t want that to happen, quite obviously.  You see gun rights, a right clearly written into the constitution by the way, is something that they don’t like.  But apparently killing and torturing newborns is A-OK.

Quote of the Day – Piers Morgan Edition Part 2

To all those spewing bile and vitriol at Margaret Thatcher today – she’s dead, what more do you want? Show some respect

A tweet from Piers Morgan on all the lefty hate being shown towards the death of conservative icon PM Margaret Thatcher.

I find it very unbecoming when people dance on the graves of the dead.  Disagree with a person’s politics, but just remember, they have a family that loves them and has the right to mourn without all the hate.

Quote of the Day – Melissa Harris Perry Edition

“..We have to break through our private idea that kids belong to parents, or kids belong to their families, and recognize that kids belong to whole communities..”

Melissa Perry Harris from NBC News.

Simply terrifying.  No Ms. Harris, my child doesn’t belong to you or anyone else who believes your communist BS.
