I'm right in more ways than one!

I know I’m a couple days late on this, but I guess ‘better late than never,’ right?

No matter, this had to go up because it is just an awesome speech that the Israeli Prime Minister laid down…

Its especially great how he handles the Code Pink nut-case that interrupts him at around 5:35 in the video.  To see another example of what those knuckleheads are up to look at this piece from Moonbat Tracker…

You really should watch the speech, but if you don’t have time here are some highlights from Wake up America…

Netanyahu’s best point out of quite a few wonderful ones was when he said Courageous Arab protesters, are now struggling to secure these very same rights for their peoples, for their societies. We’re proud that over one million Arab citizens of Israel have been enjoying these rights for decades. Of the 300 million Arabs in the Middle East and North Africa, only Israel’s Arab citizens enjoy real democratic rights. I want you to stop for a second and think about that. Of those 300 million Arabs, less than one-half of one-percent are truly free, and they’re all citizens of Israel!

This startling fact reveals a basic truth: Israel is not what is wrong about the Middle East. Israel is what is right about the Middle East.

Another great point that needed to be addressed was after the 36 minutes mark when Netanyahu said But you know very well, that in the Middle East, the only peace that will hold is a peace you can defend.

So peace must be anchored in security. In recent years, Israel withdrew from South Lebanon and Gaza. We thought we’d get peace. That’s not what we got. We got 12,000 thousand rockets fired from those areas on our cities, on our children, by Hezbollah and Hamas.

Judging by all the standing ovations Netanyahu received, it seems that Congress was very eager to show their support for Israel following Obama’s speech from a couple days earlier…

Even Gene Simmons from KISS knows Obama’s speech was ignorant…

I also appreciated Netanyahu’s point that the only free Arabs in the Mid-East live in Isreal (around 10:45 in the video), a point that is born out by the popular call in Saudi Arabia for Saudi men to beat women with cords to keep them from driving…

A campaign on Facebook is calling for Saudi men to beat women who plan to drive cars in a protest next month, AFP reports.

“The Iqal Campaign: June 17 for preventing women from driving” advocates a cord be used to beat women who plan to drive. Women are not allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia.

Some 6,000 people have “liked” the campaign on Facebook.

Hattip: The Blaze…

Poor Nancy seems to be suffering from some sort of hallucinations…

It seems that in her desperation to retain her leadership position in the Democrat party she is engaging some blame deflecting revisionist history.  In a NPR interview this morning she said, “We didn’t lose the election because of me,” instead, she attributes it to the bad economy and: “$100 million of outside, unidentified funding.”

‘Those shady Republicans, used all kinds of dirty underhanded techniques.  Waaaawaaaa…

What she fails to acknowledge is that Democrats had way more money than Republicans.  According to the Washington Post:

Overall, Democratic candidates in the 63 races that flipped to the GOP had $206.4 million behind them, a tally that includes candidate fundraising and spending by parties and interests. That compares to only $171.7 million for their GOP rivals.

Also, if you check this out, you will see that Democrats had more money across the board…

Overall, nothing new.  Just another liberal spewing B.S., from HotAir:

375,000 : The number of Americans with pre-existing conditions HHS said would apply for coverage in the first year of ObamaCare, one of the main political arguments for its implementation.

8,011 : The number that actually did .

And thats not all, apparently in Minnesota anybody, and I do mean anybody, can vote…

Is it just me, or is that ridiculous?

Aerial view of the Restoring Honor Rally (courtesy of Yahoo)

Glenn Beck’s Restoring honor rally today was a huge success…

In that article it says there were about 100,000 in attendance.  I have read stuff that said there were over 500,000, but I’m skeptical.  Considering the fact that random, made-up numbers tend to fly around these type of gatherings…

I love the fact that they honored Albert Pujols for his charity work, thats pretty cool in my opinion…

Here CNN talks about the fact that Beck used this opportunity to call for Americans to “Turn back to God”

Theres a quote in that article in which Beck is estimating the number in attendance, “The reflecting pool holds about 200,000 people. This field back here holds about 250- to 300,000 people. They are not only full here, they’re full in that field, they’re full behind me, and they are now across the street approaching the Washington Monument.” Maybe those estimates aren’t all that crazy after all.  Hmmmmm…

Any way, it was an overall good day for Beck and a ray of hope for those of us who think America is in danger of falling apart if we, as a people, don’t do something to save our country… Apparently there are a lot of people willing to do something!

Update: In my quick write up I forgot to mention something fairly obvious: the Left has its collective panties in a bunch…  Calling this rally, where they are honoring troops and charitable celebrities, and talking about God, a gathering of “…hate-mongering and angry white people.” Hehehe… Classic.

Also, Sarah Palin gave what I’ve read is worthwhile speech (read it here).  I personally haven’t read it ,because I’ve been doing school work; but the recommendation comes from The Other McCain so I feel pretty good about it…

Update #2: Why is there so much anger about this rally?  Why the claims of angry hate-mongering whites?  Does anybody actually know what was talked about?  Here is a headline from The New York Times At the Lincoln Memorial, a Call for Religious Rebirth, and another from POLITICO Glenn Beck calls for national revival…  And here are some of the “hate mongering” that went on according to those articles…

“Beck, a fiery conservative populist, had urged his followers to leave political signs at home. He said that he wanted to celebrate America’s military personnel and accounted that the rally raised $5.5 million, which would go to the veterans’ charity Special Operations Warrior Foundation after defraying event costs.”    (POLITICO)

” ‘Something that is beyond man is happening,’ Mr. Beck said in opening the event as the crowd thronged near the memorial grounds. ‘America today begins to turn back to God.’ ” (NYT)

“President Barack Obama was not referred to by name on stage once during the three-and-a-half hour program.” (POLITICO)

Absolutely vile isn’t it?  Raising money for veterans and other hateful stuff like that… Shame on you Glenn Beck!  (tsk, tsk)

And this is what each of those articles had to say about attendance…

“…event organizers put the number of attendees at 500,000; NBC News said it was closer to 300,000, but by any measure it was a large turnout. The crowd stretched from the Lincoln Memorial to the Washington Monument.” (NYT)

“The crowd stretched from the memorial to the base of the Washington Monument, about a mile away, as Beck took the stage after the singing of the national anthem.     ‘Hello, America. I have just gotten word from the media that there is over a thousand people here today,’ Beck said, with a hint of sarcasm. He later said he had heard the crowd was between 300,000 and 500,000, ‘and if that’s coming from the media, God only knows.’ ” (POLITICO)

Maybe I was a bit cynical earlier, but now I am happy to be wrong.  Apparently the turnout was HUGE!   Just check out that picture at the top of the page… If you’ve ever walked that mall on a trip to D.C., I have, you know that thing is not small.  There are a few people out there.  Haha…

Seriously, this is worth your time. I know its kind of long, but this is worthwhile for all Americans to listen to.  What is?  (you may ask) This: Ronald Reagan Speaks Out Against Socialized Medicine. This is audio I found on YouTube, from 1961, of Ronald Reagan speaking against socialized medicine and other socialist tendencies in this country, at that time.  It is frightening how much his words ring true even today.  He ends by saying something to the effect of:  If we don’t do something about this one day we will be telling our kids and grandkids “What it once was like in America, when men were free.” That is a chilling warning indeed.  Little by little our freedoms are being stripped away and, if we do nothing, one day they will all be gone.

For example:

-people can’t oppose the building of a mosque at ground zero without Nancy Pelosi calling for an investigation.       Watch out “Dingy” Harry!

-bartenders performing a “fire-breathing” trick for 13 years are suddenly arrested and face 45 years in prison, EACH!

-there is a push to strongly regulate barbers throughout the U.S., because you might use a straight razor to give someone a shave.

These are ridiculous examples of the “nanny-state” sticking its nose where it has absolutely business sticking it.

Anyway, here is another video I found on YouTube. It is much more fun…

And to add to the random, scatter-brained nature of this post…  There are ONLY 76 DAYS until mid-term elections!   Remind everybody you see, and support your local candidate for congress.  If we stand up now and take over this election maybe we won’t have to tell our kids about, “What it once was like in America, when men were free.”

Obama has pegged some top priorities for his administration since he has been in office…

However he apparently doesn’t understand the concept of “top priority.”  The use of this term conjures up images of something that is foremost one’s mind.  An everyday example would be putting food on the table or paying the bills…   …In short, something that has to be taken care of…  By its very nature this term is selective and singular, there cannot be a large number of “top priorities.”  Because, if there is they are no longer “top priorities” but merely “middle-of-the-pack priorities.”  Unfortunately this is not nearly as catchy or confidence inspiring I suppose…

Here, courtesy of CBS news’s Mark Knoller, is a selection of the many “top priorities” Obama has claimed since taking office…

FREE TRADE AGREEMENTS: “…that’s something that’s going to be a top priority.” (4/27/10)

ENERGY SECURITY: “And that’s why my energy security plan has been one of the top priorities of my Administration since the day I took office.” (4/28/10)

EDUCATION REFORM: “To train our workers for the jobs of tomorrow, we’ve made education reform a top priority in this Administration.” (2/24/10)

STUDENT LOAN REFORM: “This is something that I’ve made a top priority.” (2/1/10)

EXPORTS BY SMALL BUSINESSES: “This is going to be a top priority.” (12/3/09)

HEALTH ASSISTANCE TO 9/11 FIRST RESPONDERS: “I’m not just talking the talk, we’ve been budgeting this as a top priority for this Administration.” (2/3/10)

END HOMELESSNESS AMONG VETERANS: “I’ve also directed (Veterans Affairs) Secretary Shinseki to focus on a top priority: reducing homeless among veterans.” (8/17/09)

HURRICANE PREPAREDNESS: “Our top priority is ensuring the public safety. That means appropriate sheltering in place or if necessary, getting as many people as possible out of harm’s way prior to landfall.” (5/29/09)

H1N1 FLU VACCINATIONS: “And throughout this process, my top priority has been the health and the safety of the American people.” (5/1/09)

SUPPORT FOR MILITARY FAMILIES: “These military families are heroes too. And they are a top priority of Michelle and me. And they will always have our support.” (5/30/09)

STRENTHENING TIES WITH CANADA AND MEXICO: “We’re going to make this a top priority…” (10/16/09)

CONSUMER PROTECTION: “During these challenging times, the needs of American consumers are a top priority of my Administration.” (2/11/09)

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION: “So this is going to be a top priority generally improving our environmental quality.” (11/5/09)

Yup, I think that covers a lot of the priorities there are for you to pick from sir.  Is it just me or whenever he gets questioned about an issue does he simply say, “It is a top priority of my administration,” and thereby placate those who are hold that issue dear? I can just imagine his response if one of his daughters should ask for a pony, “Finding a pony suitable for you, my lovely daughter, is a top priority of your mother and I,”  and, consequently, whether or not he actually makes any effort to get that pony he has given the impression that it is very important to him.  …Actually we all know his response would be more like, “As long as we can get the American taxpayers to pay for it we’ll get you an entire horse farm.”

I guess if those are all “top priorities” then perhaps things that are truly important to him are “Super-Duper, top-notch, second-to-none priorities…  Who knows?

Maybe this kind of blatant pandering, along with all the crap this administration has been pulling all along, is contributing to headlines like this one from Hot Air, “Total destruction: GOP out to biggest generic ballot leads in history in both Gallup and Rasmussen” Believe it or not, the American people are really getting tired of having socialism shoved down their throat and smoke blown up their butt, at every turn, by this worthless administration.

You may be thinking, “Wow, he is really bitter!” I’m really not.  I guess I’m just a little tired or something I guess.  Oh well, heres a good video I ran across that is at least a little hopeful, once again from Hot Air, “Video: ‘Those voices don’t speak for us’ “
