I agree that DWS took Weiner's place but also think they were both replacements in the role of the distractor from the Obama Drama Dem Show.  The first drama dem I can remember was  Alan "the Republican's want you to die" Grayson who again pulled people's attention away from the real problem in Washington.  

As far as a comparison to Pit Bulls, I disagree.  I have Pit Bulls as do other members of my family.  Using Pits as an insult to DWS is more of an insult to the dogs.   They are better looking, are never in an attack mode (misconception about all Pits), and have never attacked anyone or anything.  

In regards to the crazy Cynthia McKinney and other political nut jobs, does anyone know where there is a compiled list of rants, votes, pork spending, misusing position for personal use, drug issues, DUI's, costume photos, quotes and other information compiled together, per individual, in one location to show each candidate/leader's inadequacies?  I think it would be a great tool to show why these people need to be voted out and why we are where we are at economically, etc.

West is a "hothead"??  He "trashed" that warm fuzzy libtard commie who is always in attack mode, a pit bull for the DNC, Weiner's replacement at the podium of trash talk???  Give us all a break, PLEASE!!!  The only one worse is that traitor Cynthia McKinney trashing America on her rad-muslim tour of the Middle East.

I think Allen West was gentler on D.W.S. than most Americans would even want to be after all the lies and attacks she has pulled on him.   I know he was a lot nicer than I would have been.   

 

But of course the Dems are always creating a dramatic, staged performance over what they consider political incorrectness from anyone who disagrees with them.  It is a long used tactic on the Dems part to create a side show to cover up their mistakes or use as a diversion from real issues.   Kind of like the Pres not having a sound, balanced budget proposal of his own.

Watch the news tonight. Last shuttle landing yet no reason mentioned why? Money redirected towards Obama's Muslim outreach program.
NASA's Muslim outreach: Al Jazeera told first


By:Byron York | Chief Political Correspondent | 07/09/10 12:00 AM.






Marta Lavandier/AP
NASA administrator Charles Bolden:
Lawmakers across Capitol Hill, both Democrats and Republicans, were surprised to learn recently that the Obama administration has made reaching out to Muslim nations a top priority for the space agency NASA. They will probably be more surprised to learn that administration officials told the Middle East news organization Al Jazeera about it before they told Congress.
Rep. Pete Olson, the ranking Republican on the House Subcommittee on Space and Aeronautics, got a call from NASA Administrator Charles Bolden on June 28, the day the White House released its new long-term plan for the space program. "He ran down some of the things from the president's new space policy, and mentioned outreach to Muslims," Olson recalls. "That stunned me. I didn't believe it."
Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, the Democrat who chairs the subcommittee (and is also married to astronaut Mark Kelly), got a briefing from Bolden the same day, according to a spokesman.
As it happens, Bolden's calls to Giffords and Olson came several days after Bolden discussed the Muslim initiative with Al Jazeera. According to a NASA spokesman, Bolden sat down with Al Jazeera's Imran Garda on June 17, during a stop in Doha, Qatar. Bolden's Mideast trip, which was timed to mark the first anniversary of President Obama's June 2009 Muslim outreach speech, was devoted to pursuing "a new beginning of the relationship between the United States and the Muslim world."
During the interview, Bolden told Al Jazeera that the "foremost" mission he had been given by Obama was "to find a way to reach out to the Muslim world and engage much more with dominantly Muslim nations to help them feel good about their historic contribution to science, math, and engineering."
The Al Jazeera interview did not air until June 30, after the Obama space plan was released and Bolden briefed members of Congress. But there's no question Al Jazeera got the word first.
Although few, if any, lawmakers knew it, Bolden had previewed the idea even earlier. In a February 2010 blog item, the Orlando Sentinel reported that Bolden told a group of engineering students Obama had asked him "to find ways to reach out to dominantly Muslim countries."
"We now have expanded our efforts to reach out to non-traditional partners," Bolden said, according to the Sentinel. "We really like Indonesia because the State Department, the Department of Education [and] other agencies in the U.S. are reaching out to Indonesia as the largest Muslim nation in the world. We would love to establish partners there."
Bolden might find some resistance to his plans on Capitol Hill. Olson is confident the public will disapprove of the whole Muslim outreach venture -- if they hear about it. (So far, the story has gone unreported by the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the nightly newscasts of ABC, CBS, and NBC.) Republicans need to "make sure the American people knows what's out there," Olson says. "When the American people hear this, I'm comfortable that people are going to think, 'That's not what I want my money spent on.' "
It's unlikely majority Democrats would crack down on NASA, but the space agency could be in for some serious questions if Republicans win the House of Representatives this November. "If we get the majority, then we'll have a say," Olson says. "We can de-fund things, and this would be a prime candidate in my mind."
Bolden has not commented on the controversy. As for the White House, a spokesman says President Obama wants NASA "to engage with the world's best scientists as we work together to push the boundaries of exploration." That doesn't sound much like Bolden's description of the initiativ

 It is important to stand up for Congressman West like he stands up for himself.  The only way to defeat these folks is with the facts.  Print this out or memorize it like I did (lol) so you are prepared to rebutt the lies.

These are all the programs that the new Republican House has proposed cutting.  

Looked for but did not see where the cuts would mean that SENIORS would not get their SOCIAL SECURITY checks

and that they would lose there Medicare benefits.

Would the Democrat's, Obama, and the Lame Street News Media ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC knowingly lie about that repeatedly?

I also would like to see ACORN's money withdrawn.  Or whatever name they are now going by?

It is truly unfortunate that Edmund Burke continuously is proven correct.  I have always hoped I would be able to see more of John Locke in our society, but, alas, no.

Isirio Abelon:  Thank you for your kind words, but no, I am not a good man.  If Christ Jesus said, and I paraphrase, there is only One Who is good, and that is the Father in heaven, that places me very low on the goodness scale, if there at all.  But, thanks again for the sentiment.

Billie's prayer was right on.
