I found this ad on Politico. I found it amusing a leftist blog calls it a "Republican Dirty Tricks in NY-23. They are basically accusing Republicans of trashing their own candidate. Obviously, they make no sense. And obviously, they are scared little girls.
The video is great, watch it HERE. The article is also great reading. I enjoyed it thoroughly.

Great blog I found
I had some help finding it, Adrienne at Adriennes Catholic Corner posted a series of health debate articles and hence I stumbled on this blog. Thanks Adrienne!
His name is Dr. Frank Rosenbloom and his blog is called Summa Contra Improbos et Plumbeos which means 'A work to refute the evil and the stupid'. He doesn't mince words here, sounds like someone I like. He has written several great articles for American Thinker, three of which I highly recommend, they are simple, straightfoward and easy to read. So in case you are Arguing With an Idiot, you can easily refute the stupidity.

I love spray paint.
I know it's a weird confession, but i LOVE it. It makes life so much better, and i'm not talking about huffing it, but transforming ugly things and making them beautiful. Check out this post to see what happens when spray paint meets ugly nightstand. It is a lovely transformation. Some people knit or sew, garden or collect things, I spray paint.

Wednesday Quote: Obama's Compassion
From the Patriot Post (of course):
"Can someone explain to me how President Barack Obama's grandiose scheme destined to reduce the quality of the best health care system in the history of the world, force millions of people who choose not to purchase health insurance to purchase it, greatly increase medical costs, our deficits and national debt, ultimately reduce patient choice, and place health care decisions in the hands of heartless bureaucrats is somehow a demonstration of compassion?" --columnist David Limbaugh

Indiana Challenges Chrysler Bankruptcy
This headline caught my eye, I thought it was rather interesting, and you're not going to see it in the news (well, you're never gonna see any real news of substance anyways). I've always wondered why the car companies just bent over and, well, you know, took it. This is from the Patriot Post (i heart the Patriot Post).
On Sept. 3, Indiana Treasurer Richard Murdock, fiduciary for three public funds, filed an appeal with the Supreme Court of the United States asking SCOTUS to rule on the legality of the Obama-forced Chrysler bankruptcy. Barack Obama's chicanery not only continued his visceral loathing of the Rule of Law (violating U.S. Constitution Article 1, Section 8) but also upended 220 years of settled bankruptcy precedent (i.e., secured creditors being made whole prior to unsecured creditors.)
While SCOTUS refused in June to halt the sale of Chrysler (mainly because Indiana represented only $42.5 million of Chrysler's $6.9 billion debt), the Justices almost invited an appeal based upon the merits of the case.
Outside of local Indiana media outlets, the story is not covered, and, even more ominously, major search engines (Google, Yahoo, Wikipedia and Bing included) seem to have buried links to it, an all-too-frequent occurrence for information detrimental to Obama.
As readers might recall, Chrysler's secured bondholders received only 29 cents on the dollar, while Obama's cronies at the United Automobile Workers collected 55 percent ownership in the new company for their unsecured holdings, and Italian automaker Fiat was flat-out gifted 20 percent ownership plus options for an additional 15 percent without investing even a single penny in Chrysler. (We have yet to determine the political sleaze behind that deal.)
If ever there was a David versus Goliath moment, this is it. And Indiana Treasurer Richard Murdock has the stones to sling at this giant.
And in remeberence of the September 11 attacks, here is an article from CNS News reminding us that the threat remains real!
Despite counter-terrorism successes and the absence of a major and dramatic attack in the West, the security threat posed by radical Islamists remains real and dynamic, as al-Qaeda mutates into an increasingly unstructured but no less dangerous entity, according to experts monitoring the organization. As Americans and others around the world mark the eighth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on the U.S., Osama bin Laden and other al-Qaeda leaders continue to elude security forces and intelligence services.

Today's Quote
Feeling good about government is like looking on the bright side of any catastrophe. When you quit looking on the bright side, the catastrophe is still there.
P. J. O'Rourke
Sigh. So true. I'm determined to just stop feeling anything about the government. It is what it is. And other than my vote and my voice, I can't do much about it, so might as well quit worrying!!

Hot Air
Good stuff from HotAir.com
If Obama were the CEO of a private company, he would have already been “asked to leave the room” by the shareholders, and he’d be driving home in tears, listening to voice mail messages from the company lawyers. Unfortunately, it’s not so easy to dispose of corrupt and incompetent elected officials… which is why they should be provided with the smallest possible operating budget, watched like hawks, and kept out of everything that isn’t their explicit Constitutional duty. We can begin the process in 2010, and finish it in 2012. I’d like to have both Charles Krauthammer and Sarah Palin in the room while we prepare for battle. I know she won’t ask him to leave.
AMEN!!!!!!!Read the rest of the article here
