500M PROBLEMS FOR MADAME SECRETARY

Now that Bill Clinton has released the list of his 205,000 donors who have given close to $500 million to his library and foundation, it is clear why he resisted releasing the list while his wife was running for president.

Now, compelled by the Obama transition team to make it public as a condition of his wife's appointment as secretary of state, it becomes clear that the list is a virtual encyclopedia of conflicts of interest for the husband of a senator - to say nothing of the husband of an incoming secretary of state.

 Particularly troubling are the massive donations from Arab governments in the Middle East.

Pardon us for looking such generous gift horses in the mouth, but it is hard to imagine so many governments, monarchs and businessmen in the Middle East giving money unless it was with some hope of a political return. Will that return now come with the appointment of Sen. Clinton as secretary of state?

How can Hillary Rodham Clinton mediate and negotiate conflicts in the Middle East impartially when her husband's library and foundation - over which he has total control - have been bankrolled by the very nations with whom she must negotiate?

The list reveals another key center of conflicts of interest in Kazakhstan, the former Soviet republic, now home to some of the world's greatest mineral deposits and ruled by a corrupt dictator, Nursultan Nazarbayev, who, according to The New York Times, has all but quashed political dissent.
Bill Clinton visited Kazakhstan and met with its president on Sept. 6, 2005, accompanied by Canadian mining financier Frank Giustra.

Soon after, Giustra was awarded a highly lucrative contract to mine uranium there. Now, lo and behold, Frank Giustra turns up having given the library and foundation between $10 million and $25 million and the Clinton Giustra Sustainable Growth Initiative of Canada gave $1 million to $5 million more.

And Clinton got $1 million to $5 million from Lakshmi Mittal, the fourth-wealthiest person on the Forbes billionaire list and a member of the Foreign Investment Council in Kazakhstan.

In addition, Clinton further fished in troubled waters by taking $1 million to $5 million from Victor Pinchuk, the son-in-law of the controversial former president of the Ukraine.

Given the complexities of US policy toward the former Soviet republics in Central Asia, it is hard to see how this massive and incestuous relationship cannot but complicate Hillary's independence.

One of the largest donors to the library and foundation was UNITAID, an international organization largely controlled by France, which donated more than $25 million. And the conflicts of interest are not all just foreign. Corporate bailout recipients and recipient wannabes donated to the Clinton fund. They include AIG, Lehman, Merrill, the Citi Foundation and General Motors.

And, almost as an afterthought, the list reveals a donation of at least $250,000 from Denise Rich, presumably in return for her ex-husband's presidential pardon.

How could a US senator possibly serve dispassionately while her husband was collecting money from these donors on this kind of scale? And how could we have almost elected a president without realizing these conflicts existed? And how on earth can a secretary of state function with these conflicts hanging over her head?

WHITE GUILT IS DEAD

Look at my fellow conservatives! There they go, glumly shuffling along, depressed by the election aftermath. Not me. I'm virtually euphoric. Don't get me wrong. I'm not thrilled with America's flirtation with neo socialism. But there's a massive silver lining in those magical clouds that lofted Barack Obama to the Presidency. For today, without a shred of intellectually legitimate opposition, I can loudly proclaim to America: The Era of White Guilt is over.


This seemingly impossible event occurred because the vast majority of white Americans didn't care about skin color, and enthusiastically pulled the voting lever for a black man. Not just any black man. A very liberal black man who spent his early career race-hustling banks, praying in a racist church for 20 years, and actively worked with America-hating domestic terrorists. Wow! Some resume! Yet they made Barack Obama their leader. Therefore, as of Nov 4th, 2008, white guilt is dead.


For over a century, the millstone of white guilt hung around our necks, retribution for slave-owning predecessors. In the 60s, American liberals began yanking that millstone while sticking a fork in the eye of black Americans, exacerbating the racial divide to extort a socialist solution. But if a black man can become President, exactly what significant barrier is left? The election of Barack Obama absolutely destroys the entire validation of liberal white guilt. The dragon is hereby slain.


So today, I'm feeling a little "uppity," if you will. From this day forward, my tolerance level for having my skin color hustled is now exactly ZERO. And it's time to clean house. No more Reverend Wright's "God Damn America," Al Sharpton's Church of Perpetual Victimization, or Jesse Jackson's rainbow racism. Cornell West? You're a fraud. Go home. All those "black studies" programs that taught kids to hate whitey? You must now thank Whitey. And I want that on the final.


Congressional Black Caucus? Irrelevant. Maxine Waters? Shut up. ACORN? Outlawed. Black Panthers? Go home and pet your kitty. Black separatists? Find another nation that offers better dreams. Go ahead. I'm waiting.


Gangsta rappers? Start praising America. Begin with the Pledge of Allegiance. And please…no more Ebonics. Speak English, and who knows where you might end up? Oh, yeah…pull up your pants. Your underwear is showing. You look stupid.


To those Eurosnots who forged entire careers hating America? I'm still waiting for the first black French President.


And let me offer an equal opportunity whupping. I've always despised lazy white people. Now, I can talk smack about lazy black people. You're poor because you quit school, did drugs, had three kids with three different fathers, and refuse to work. So when you plop your Colt 45-swilling, Oprah watchin' butt on the couch and complain "Da Man is keepin' me down," allow me to inform you: Da Man is now black. You have no excuses.


No more quotas. No more handouts. No more stealing my money because someone's great-great-great-great grandparents suffered actual pain and misery at the hands of people I have no relation too.


It's time to toss that massive, obsolete race-hustle machine upon the heap of the other stupid 60s ideas. Drag it over there, by wife swapping, next to dope-smoking. Plenty of room right between free love and cop-killing. Careful…don't trip on streaking. There ya go, don't be gentle. Just dump it. Wash your hands. It's filthy.


In fact, Obama's ascension created a gargantuan irony. How can you sell class envy and American unfairness when you and your wife went to Ivy League schools, got high-paying jobs, became millionaires, bought a mansion, and got elected President? How unfair is that??? Now, Like a delicious O'Henry tale, Obama's spread-the-wealth campaign rendered itself moot by it's own victory! America is officially a meritocracy .
Obama's election has validated American conservatism!

So, listen carefully…Wham!!!
That's the sound of my foot kicking the door shut on the era of white guilt. The rites have been muttered, the carcass lowered, dirt shoveled, and tombstone erected. White guilt is dead and buried.


However, despite my glee, there's apparently one small, rabid bastion of American racism remaining. Black Americans voted 96% for Barack Obama. Hmmm. In a color-blind world, shouldn't that be 50-50? Tonight, every black person should ask forgiveness for their apparent racism and prejudice towards white people. Maybe it's time to start spreading the guilt around.

TEXAS MONTHLY TALKS - TED NUGENT

I AGREE WHOLEHEARTEDLY!!

1000's rally to support prop 8 in CA

This past Saturday an estimated 2000 volunteers took to the streets. They stood at major intersections along Pacific Coast Hwy in Orange County. The rally was awesome! It stretched from Seal Beach, all the way to San Clemente, CA. Here are a couple of videos from the rally.

Why do the "no on 8" commercials refuse to show gay couples?

 Is it because it might offend people?

Has anyone ever stopped to wonder why the "No on Prop. 8" TV ads do not show any gay couples in them? Their first commercial showed a sweet looking, elderly (straight) couple...

This commercial doesn't show anyone. Just a voice over with a bunch of pictures of newspapers and legal documents...

Ever wonder why a campaign for gay marriage to be legalized doesn't even bother to show images of what it is they are fighting for? Hmmmm. I wonder! Could it be because they know that no one wants to see things like this on TV...

I do not care what you say, I am NOT a homophobe!  Their sins are no greater than my own. And do not try and tell me this is a civil rights issue, either!

Does a black person have a choice to be black? Does a Hispanic or Asian have a choice to be Hispanic or Asian? Does a person have a choice to be born male or female? NO! NO! NO! But does a person have a choice to have sex with a man or woman (whether it goes against their own desires or not)... YES!!! So do not tell me it's a civil rights issue.

The "No on Prop. 8" campaign does not show images of the people they are fighting for because they know it's wrong and that no one wants to see those images or support such a cause if they do. Plain and simple.

So if you really think voting no on Prop. 8 won't affect you, you had better think again. Schools teach our kids about sexuality and safe sex practices. So don't fool yourself for a second into thinking they won't teach same sex practices and same-sex safe-sex practices, too.

But if that's what you want to see our children being taught in school then go right ahead and vote no. For the rest of us with even the slightest sense of decency, propriety, and morality...we will be voting YES!

Prop. 8 does absolutely nothing to strip away the rights that gay couples have been given in the state of California through domestic partnerships. All prop. 8 does is make a permanent change to the state constitution that defines marriage as being only a union between one man and one woman. Period!

So think about what kind of affect you want to have on this state and this country when you go out and vote. Think long and hard. Then go out on Novemeber 4th and vote YES ON PROP. 8!!!

Obama's America

McCain wouldn't get away with this, why should Obama?!! 

LAST CHANCE TO STOP THE WALL STREET BAILOUT !

Most of you are well aware that tomorrow morning is crucial to making one last strong statement to the House that Americans overwhelmingly reject the $850 Billion bailout bill.
 
I am opposing this disturbing march to socialism.  Please make one last round of calls first thing in the morning.  Pelosi does not quite have the votes to bring the bill up for a vote and we need to keep it that way.  There is some serious arm twisting and promising going on right now to find a few more votes to pass this horrible bill.
 
The best we can hope for now is to make sure this doesn't get voted on tomorrow!  Just like the ugly amnesty bill last year, the longer this draws out, the less chance it has to pass as people study the Bill and see the hundreds of billions in pork and earmarks and how this will drive America much further into debt.
 
My message to Washington is crystal clear:  NO TAXPAYER BAILOUT OF WALL STREET AND FAILED FINANCIAL INSTITUTIONS!   NOT NOW, NOT EVER!

Obama Embarrassed by Americans

Apparently Barack Obama is embarrassed by the fact that most people in the world speak English, and Americans don't generally speak other languages too well. Perhaps it was just a joke, but given Obama's globalist one world viewpoints he should be a little more careful about his 'jokes'

Why is that embarrassing?  Could you imagine if New York spoke one language, New Jersey spoke another language, Delaware spoke a third language, Connecticut spoke another language.  I mean, Europe is like New England and the eastern states. You're living on top of each other. And everybody speaks another language. Of course you speak more than one language. You have to to be able to survive. I'm sorry that they're so stupid that they continue to speak 800 different languages when they're living next door to each other. Here's an idea, we streamlined it. One. I mean, why should I feel embarrassed that I don't speak German? I'm sorry. I don't have a lot of opportunity to use German, you know, in the United States of America.

When French people visit China, they don't speak Chinese.

Have you ever seen a candidate with more legitimate spooky stuff on the table than Barack Obama?
