48 It's not just whether it's partisan or not, but what the hell difference should it make to anyone whether she's a black or a woman? Is that the sole basis of her qualifications, that she's black and a woman?

This is all crap. Republicans who voted for her did so partially because of those two traits - not whether she is a partisan ideologue, which she probably is.

Obama is not the worst president in history because he is black, or because he is the first black president. He is the worst president in history because he couldn't find his ass with both hands and a map AND the fact that is ideology is at opposition to the founding and traditions of this country.

62 Lorretta Lynches first order of business will be protection the rights of the New Americans, especially as "Old Americans" start to realize what is happening. The Obama Administration has developed a plan that displaces American
citizens and replaces them with New Americans and that is not just crazy conspiracy talk. Furthermore, the burden
of doing this will be done at the expense of the "Welcoming Communities"
with the Federal govt acting as the enforcer. In case anybody has any
doubts, read the actual report "Strengthening Communities By Welcoming All Residents". It is full of PC language and liberal
happy talk but the intent is clear: American communities will be
welcoming their replacements with open arms and wallets whether they
like it or not. (Note: the report does not spell it out but the
language, goals and scope of resources to be employed implies tens of
million of New Americas, meaning ALL the illegals here with many more on
the way. At least 30 million is my estimate)

When has the this
ever happened in the history of the world? What nation has committed
suicide by willfully replacing its population with a foreign culture?
It like something out of a sci-fi dystopia. This is beyond treason.

78 The story is spun like you cant believe. Read carefully:

"The new report fills in a missing link of the system. It describes a large reservoir of hot rock, mostly solid but with some melted rock in the mix, that lies beneath a shallow, already-documented magma chamber. The newly discovered reservoir is 4.5 times larger than the chamber above it. There's enough magma there to fill the Grand Canyon. The reservoir is on top of a long plume of magma that emerges from deep within the Earth's mantle."

So, it's solid and not lava. A solid rock reservoir?? And all volcanos stem from a magna plume from deep within mantle. They try to make it sound all scary.

111 As liberals, they will do this every time.

As conservatives, Mona Charen, Ace and the rest of us will do what we do - the wrong thing. Just as we do every time something like this happens.

We'll bemoan the action, blame the institution and forget about it the next day.

Liberals, on the other hand, being the smart party, will personalize the bad act and demand that individuals beg for forgiveness in the public square.

Liberals would find out who wrote the headlines, or who edited the stories. They would have 50 blogs asking for quotes, naming names and screaming racism at the top of their lungs.

Freeze it. Personalize it. Make them beg.

One of these days we'll learn how to play the game.

See here is the problem. The issue isn't that liberals and their groups are smart and ours are dumb.

The problem is liberal activists WANT to be told what to do. So when Kos, or Jon Stewart, or Barack Obama or whoever tells them to do something this is what they now want to do.

Conservatives tend to be busy and rather resistant to someone telling them what to do .

One of the things Alinsky mentioned, IIRC, is that one sign of a good tactic is one that your people will WANT to use.

Overall we haven't found that yet as conservatives and so here we are.

151 Might have been mentioned above, but forget the ludicrous bias in the headlines and framework of WaPo "reporting".

Recall the crude, racist caricatures of Condi that appeared in mainstream publications, reminiscent of an earlier time of socially acceptable racism.

And just for practice, sit back and think, seriously for a second, how infantile, unserious, and pathetic a political culture is that even notes, much less celebrates, CERTAIN appointments or elections of certain people with certain skin color. Long, long after all the real barriers, esp. at senior levels of all institutions, had been broken (but the NPR suburbanite dipshits who are ruining the country have to get out of their clueless bubbles to realize that, which obviously ain't happening).
