In the early 1960's a movie was released called The Great Imposter.It was based on a true story of a bright young man who didn't the patience for the normal way of advancement. He found that people rarely question you if your papers are in order.
For readers who cannot recall, with clarity, the 1960's there was another film base on what is basically the same plot called Catch Me if You Can.
In The Great Imposter financial reward was not a motive. The fellow did it just to prove it could be done. Whereas, in Catch Me if You Can the protagonist motive and reward was monetary. (And to prove he could do it.)
The reason I am providing this background is, at this time we have one the greatest imposters, if not the greatest imposter in the history of our country residing in the White House.
It appears that his experience of being a "community organizer" did little to qualify the bamster to even be a let's pretend president.
This just in: "Puff" Daschel has withdrawn his name for HHS.
I am sincerely happy to see the bamster faced with all these staffing problems. If his name were Richard Nixon, he would already be gone. It is satisfying to see the dems feed on their own.
If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, hangs out with other ducks.......
The bamster in no way has the credentials to be president. And the MSM said Sarah Palin was unqualified.

The Most Transparent and Ethical Administration, EVER
In barely two weeks after his immaculation, the bamster is finding staffing his court a more than difficult task than he ever considered. His Secretary of the Treasury (IRS, etc) failed to pay his taxes for several years and failed to pay taxes on an illegal immigrant under his employ.
Now he is "sorry". Yeah, sorry he got caught. What an arrogant SOB but, he is so damn smart.
Ron Paul gets it.
Then, a former United States Senator, who is the bamster's designate to oversee health and social programs for the indigent, has been found to have tax and other issues which should disqualify him for government service. Tom Daschle is the honest and open guy the bamster has chosen to introduce nationalized "health" care.
I remember during the campaign people were saying, "He's won't be so bad". They were right, he will be worse.

The Brainwashing of School Children
The Fulford File, By James Fulford
When Records Are Sealed—A Meditation On Martin Luther King Day
"Every school boy knows who imprisoned Montezuma and who strangled Atahualpa " wrote Lord Macauley 168 years ago.
Well, they don't anymore, if they ever did, (it was Cortez and Pizzaro respectively) but, boy, do they know a lot about Martin Luther King, Jr.
Of course, there are many things about him that they don't know. The NEA has a massive set of Curriculum Resources on Dr. King here —see if you can find the words plagiarism or Communism in there, let alone adultery.
It's not only what they don't know, it's the things they know that aren't so—when I read this, ten years ago, I could kind of tell that the author decided he didn't care if he went to cocktail parties with liberals:
"To take just one example, I gnash my teeth when conservatives argue that 'affirmative action' violates 'the spirit of Dr. King'—'color-blind justice,' and all that. Nonsense. If King were alive today, he'd certain support state-imposed racial preferences. He was a Marxist, always moving leftward. Liberals are right to claim him as their own; conservatives who appeal to his 'spirit' only make fools of themselves."[Media and Mythology, By Joe Sobran, SOBRAN'S, November–December 1998]
This is true. A new article by Benjamin J. Ryan in American Renaissance points out that Dr. King was calling for hard quotas:
"King has been praised, even by conservatives, as the great advocate of color-blindness. They focus too narrowly on one sentence in his 'I Have a Dream' speech, in which he said he wanted to live in a nation 'where [my children] will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.' The truth is that King wanted quotas for blacks. '[I]f a city has a 30 percent Negro population,' King reasoned, 'then it is logical to assume that Negroes should have at least 30 percent of the jobs in any particular company, and jobs in all categories rather than only in menial areas.'" [The Unknown Martin Luther King, Jr., January 2008]
At VDARE.COM, they have featured a lot of coverage of undercovered issues in the Martin Luther King saga. For example, they have featured Jesse Helms's speech on the proposed MLK Day in 1983, which was read on the Senate Floor. ["Remarks of Senator Jesse Helms." Congressional Quarterly 129, no. 130 (October 3, 1983): S13452-S13461.]
Part of that speech was based on research by the late Sam Francis, who reported that his research was not only read on the Senate floor, it was thrown on the Senate floor and stomped on bySenator Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who characterized it as "a packet of filth."[The King Holiday and Its Meaning |The origins of our national celebration of multiracialism and political correctness]
Much of the hatred for anyone who criticizes Dr. King comes from the fact that some of the criticism concentrates on his sex life, which resembled Bill Clinton's. People seem to feel that an investigation that uncovers that kind of detail must be evil. And there may be something in that.
Of course, the only reason Barack Obama got elected Senator was because, as Ann Coulter points out in her new book, Guilty "his media and campaign surrogates ripped open the court-sealed divorce records of his two principal opponents in his Senate race in Illinois."
First there was Blair Hull, who was Obama's Democratic primary opponent, and then there was Republican Senate candidate Jack Ryan were attacked by Democrats in the mainstream media who managed to get a judge to release the sealed records of their divorces. The records of Ryan's divorce from Jeri Ryan, (Star Trek's Seven of Nine) contained accusations of sexual impropriety against Ryan. I won't detail them, but they lack credibility, and as Ms. Coulter says "there's a reason you never hear the expression 'As true as claims made by an ex-spouse in divorce papers.'"
But my point is that Obama became a Senator because of the same kind of investigation that J. Edgar Hoover conducted on Martin Luther King—the difference being that the Democrats in the media (possibly with the help of David Axelrod) went public with the details, unlike Hoover .
Oh, and unlike Hoover , they didn't have a lot of embarrassing facts on tape—just a lot of accusations. But it was enough to get Obama in the Senate.
And from there to the Presidency was just a short step—one that a freshman white Senator with his record couldn't possibly have made.
And so, when you hear that Obama's Presidency represents the triumph of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., you now have a different perspective on what that means.
If you're one of the 29 percent of Americans who gets off work on MLK Day, enjoy it! In the words of Chris Rock, "You gotta be pretty racist to not want a day off from work."

A Hysterical Day in Our Late, Great Republic
Saturday January 17 was a significant day in the history of the United States. That date marked the beginning of our messiah's decent into our nations capitol to take over the reins of government. The day he rides victoriously into the new Jerusalem.
Today, January 20, is HIS coronation day. All the "intelligent" folks are saying how we should all hope "this" president succeeds.
Why ? Why do they want this president, in particular, to succeed? I, generally, want all our leaders to succeed. However, this is the first time we have had a marxist-socialist recite the oath of office:
If he is going to attempt to govern according to the programs and promises he enumerated on the campaign trail, I hope he fails.
Remember, this clown is going to be representing our country to the world!!
Nothing good has come out of Chicago.

execute the office of President of the United States,
and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect
and defend the Constitution of the United States."
"...preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States."
I believe is the most important phrase in the oath. If Obama is going to govern according to the Constitution, I wish him well. If not..., I hope he fails!

Just how Freaking Stupid is the EPA ?
I initially herd (you will understand later) about an EPA ruling that animal flatulence, that is farting to you folks in Northwest Louisiana and Northeast Texas, is a major pollutant and therefore subject to a greenhouse gas emissions tax. EPA's Air Pollution Target.
EPA officials deny that a farting tax on animals is in the works. John Millett, a spokesman for EPA's air and radiation division said, "EPA is not proposing any type of tax on livestock..." Riiiight, your government would never lie to you or attempt to cover you with fertilizer straight from the bull.
Would it?
The American Farm Bureau Federation said, based on federal agriculture department figures, it would require farms or ranches with more than 25 dairy cows, 50 beef cattle or 200 hogs to pay an annual fee of about $175 for each dairy cow, $87.50 per head of beef cattle and $20 for each hog.
Farmers from across the country have expressed outrage over the EPA report, both on Internet sites and in opinions sent to EPA during a public comment period that ended last week. Many call it a "cow tax" and say the EPA proposed it.
"It's something that really has a very big potential adverse impact for the livestock industry," said Rick Krause, the senior director of congressional relations for the American Farm Bureau Federation.
The fee would cover the cost of a permit for the livestock operations. While farmers say it would drive them out of business, an organization supporting the proposal hopes it forces the farms and ranches to switch to healthier crops.
"It makes perfect sense if you are looking for ways to cut down on meat consumption and recoup environmental losses," said Bruce Friedrich, a spokesman in Washington for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.
"We certainly support making factory farms pay their fair share," he said.
