If you like what we do here, and support our efforts to stand up to the bullies and socialists of the Left who are doing everything they can to silence their opposition, we need your help.  The likes of Daily Kos, Democratic Underground, and Moveon.org have launched assaults against not only this site, but against us personally.  Against us as private citizens and individuals. They are costing us work, harassing us at home, making physical threats against us, and doing everything they can to shut us down.  All because they do not like that we are stirring our readers up to take action against the Left and what it is up to.

We refuse to give up and be bullied, but the personal attacks on us, as individuals, are so bad we need help to fight them.  Anything you can do to support us through this would be life and career-saving.  Kos and Moveon.org have George Soros behind them, with all the resources in the world at their disposal. So, clearly, we need all the help we can get.  We’ve promised to keep fighting the Left with all that we’ve got, but it’s come to the point where we need serious reinforcements.  Anything you can do to help would be a Godsend.

Photoshop Challenge: Snow Job and the Seven Dunces

Posted by hillbuzz under Uncategorized | Tags: |
[61] Comments 

There’s a photo we saw once of a Tea Party protest poster that had Dr. Utopia depicted (in drag) as Snow White (which we’ll call Snow Job), with seven of the worst Democrats in Washington surrounding him, all with riffs on Disney’s seven dwarves.

Nancy Pelosi = Twitchy

Harry Reid = Dingy

Rahm Emanuel = Fishy

Barney Frank = Queeny

Tim Geithner = Cheaty

Claire McCaskill = Dopey

Barbara Boxer = Grumpy

Technically, there doesn’t need to be just Seven Dunces.  We can take liberties with that.

Could make some fun images to use going forward when needed.

Anyone up to a stab at it?

Question: Is the Soros plan to put Cass Sunstein on the SCOTUS before November’s election?

Posted by hillbuzz under Uncategorized | Tags: , , , , , |

This is not Cass Sunstein (no matter how much he wishes it was)

We want the next SCOTUS Justice to be Ann Claire Williams, from Chicago.  But, we wanted her to be the last SCOTUS Justice.  Instead, we got “a wise Latina”, who has yet to show any of the seemingly prerequisite wisdom.

There’s rumors at work that George Soros wants Cass Sunstein, husband of lunatic Samantha Power, and radical Leftist himself, to replace Justices Stevens or Ginsburg before the November elections.  It’s widely assumed Democrats will be trounced this fall…so it seems that any effort to install radicals on the Court will have to be done before that shellacking.

What do you know about Cass Sunstein?

What’s an effective strategy for informing the American public about him now, proactively, so that when a SCOTUS vacancy emerges Sunstein won’t even be in the running?

Many people, currently, think Sunstein’s a former member of the Mamas and the Pappas (who apparently survived the apocryphal encounter with a ham sandwich).

How do we communicate how dangerous this man is, and how he should come nowhere near the SCOTUS?

If this is what George Soros really wants…we need to start organizing now to stop it.

Photoshop Challenge: Claire McCaskill edition

Honestly, it’s really rare for us to think anything so funny we giggle about it all day, but the photoship Bijou did for us of Claire McCaskill playing under her desk in her PJs, surrounded by her favorite sammiches and all her trucks and other toys, has us smiling so much today we thought we’d make this a Photoshop Challenge…to see what other images you can create of Claire Bear “Senatoring” in her own unique way.

We’d love to use these for future pieces we do, reporting on what it’s like in McCaskill’s office.

Do you remember the old “Muppet Babies” cartoon?  The “Nanny” was never seen…just a set of legs that walked into a room and told the babies to be good.  We picture McCaskill’s Chief of Staff, “Jane”, playing a similar role.  “That’s enough Tweeting, Senator, and stop putting that letter opener in the light socket, again.  What have I told you?”  “You tells me eat my sammiches like a good Senator, and I try so hard to be good, but electricity fascinates me.  Can I have more sammiches now? I promise be verrrry good!”.

What else do you picture Claire McCaskill doing in her office all day?

What kind of jammies do you think she wears while playing on the carpet?

What’s Claire Bear’s favorite “sammich”?

We have two years to make this woman a complete laughingstock (more so) in her home state of Missouri, to prevent her from winning re-election.

What images can you put together to complement our take on McCaskill that could help in this goal?

Question: What do you know about Chuck DeVore and how can we help him take down Barbara Boxer?

Posted by hillbuzz under Uncategorized | Tags: , , , |

H/t Mizz Jodee

The more we see of Chuck DeVore, the more we like him.

Does this make sense — but he’s actually someone we’d like to be friends with, and not just put into elected office.  There are very few politicians we think this way about.  Hillary Clinton is one of them. Sarah Palin and Scott Brown are others.  We really like DeVore, on a personal level, think he has a great dry sense of humor, and know he will do a good job for California.

Barbra Boxer is not only someone we’d never want to be friends with, but she’s who we would cast as Rita Moreno if we were doing a very low-rent, drag, tribute to Rita Moreno, and no actual drag queens were available for the role..and no one could find a puppet…or a talented cat…so we’d have to settle on Boxer.  “Call me Rita Moreno, I worked hard for this title!”. Settle down, Boxer.  How hard have you really worked for anything, really?

And why don’t you comb your hair?

What do you think the keys to defeating Boxer in California will be?  We know absolutely nothing about the state, aside from the fact that everyone keeps telling us it’s really three states combined:  the north, the south, and the cities.

Our gut instinct is to find a way to lampoon Boxer enough in at least one of these areas, to draw down enough of her support to give DeVore a fighting chance.  THAT, coupled with finding some angle to exploit where we can give DeVore a boost in areas that normally wouldn’t be all that friendly to him.

This is kind of our personal niche…and one we’ll stick to going forward.  We can’t win a race against Boxer, clearly, but we can be a little push in the right places to make her topple, Martha Coakley-style.

Start brainstorming on what we can do for DeVore, because we think he’ll be the Republican nominee, and he’ll have the best chance of schooling Boxer but good come November.

Question: What do you think of the SCOTUS opening rumors?

Posted by hillbuzz under Uncategorized | Tags: , , |
[83] Comments 

What do you think of the rumors Rush Limbaugh and others have been talking about, where Joe Biden or Hillary Clinton could be nominated to the Supreme Court when Justices Stevens and Ginsburg retire, as expected, sometime this year?

The idea of Joe Biden doing anything besides running a Baskin-Robbins (and eating it into oblivion) after his term as Vice President is up in 2013 is ludicrous.  There’s a better chance of Biden replacing David Letterman on the Late Show (where we think he would actually do a great job) than becoming a SCOTUS Justice.

The conspiracy theory in all this is that once Biden is out, Dr. Utopia would replace him with Hillary Clinton as VP, thus ostensibly bringing the Jacksonian-Clinton Democrats back into the party.  The catch with this is that no matter how much we like Hillary Clinton, we’re not going to support Dr. Utopia or what he is doing to the country.  Even if she became his VP, we still wouldn’t vote for him for re-election.  We will not vote for Dr. Utopia for President, even if he made one of us, personally, his VP.  We just can’t do that to America…he needs to be defeated and the Left needs to be removed from power.  Period.

As for Hillary, we just don’t see her wanting or accepting a spot on the Court.  There’s a guy we know here in Chicago, who is kind of a dreamboat, who we could listen to go on and on for hours about all manner of nonsense.  He’s wrong about everything, but so cute it never matters.  Welcome to Boystown.  Well, this guy, Drake, insisted in 2008 that Hillary Clinton would be a SCOTUS Justice, before she became Secretary of State.  Even though Hillary’s never shown any sort of desire to be a judge.  Whatsoever.  How long has it been since she practiced law?  She’d be great at anything she set out to do, but sitting in a big ugly robe, being quiet most of the time, and only appearing in public at the State of the Union Address is not the best fit for her.

If she chooses to never run for President again, we see Clinton as UN Secretary General, or running for Governor of either New York, Arkansas, or (it’s a stretch) Illinois.  She would, in fact, be a fantastic Governor.  We wish very much she was running for Governor in New York right now, instead of allowing Andrew Cuomo to force David Paterson out and take that slot for himself.

We don’t see her retiring.  As much as she’s looking forward to grandchildren once Chelsea is married later this summer, we don’t think she’ll be taking up knitting or slowing down any, after she resigns as Secretary of State (which we think will happen before the year is out, after the trouncing Democrats take in November).

We hope those midterm elections are so bad, and the collapse of the Democrat Party is so severe, that Dr. Utopia uses his Parkinsons as an excuse not to seek a second term, so Hillary can have the Democrats’ nomination in 2012.  The sad truth, though, is that we don’t believe ANY Democrat can win in 2012…because Dr. Utopia, Howard Dean, Donna Brazile, and Rahm Emanuel have so ruined things and alienated too many former party loyalists.

If anyone can save the Democrats, it’s Hillary Clinton…but will she want to save them, after they backstabbed her the way they did?

Democrats could have had 8 years in the White House with her…and possibly spun off Dr. Utopia after that, for at least 12 years in power.  Instead, those fools pushed Hillary aside for the effeminate, biracial, socialist bumbled they proclaimed a “Lightbringer”.  Whatever the Hell that means.

Idiots.

But, with so many rumors swirling around lately about the future, we’re wondering what you think is going to happen.  Can you imagine any scenarios where either Biden or Clinton, or both, end up on the Supreme Court?

Do you think Hillary Clinton would ever end up as Vice President?

Do you think Dr. Utopia will seek a second term?

What think you?

Jacksonian Democrats are Reagan Democrats are Hillary Democrats are Palin Democrats

Posted by hillbuzz under Uncategorized | Tags: , , , |
[90] Comments 

Read this article in The Weekly Standard by Jonathan V. Last, “Clinton Voters Jump Ship”.

It says a lot of what we’ve been telling you since 2008:  the Democrat Party under Howard Dean and Donna Brazile thought they could push the Jacksonian (Clinton) Democrats out of the party and still be able to hold power.

That’s clearly not the case.

We are a living example of that.

For our friends who’ve known us for most of our lives, it’s still surreal to them that we not only voted for McCain/Palin in 2008, but that we ran Democrats for McCain efforts here in Illinois, and we continue to support Sarah Palin and other Republicans we like going forward.  Prior to 2008, all of this would have been unthinkable.  We were Democrat Party loyalists who never had so much as a Republican friend.  And now, because of how the DNC behaved in 2008, the Democrat Party as it exists today sickens us.

We are doing everything we can, in fact, to destroy it.  We want to see every current Democrat in the Senate booted from office at the first available opportunity.  We are already laying the groundwork for how we can be a part of the Palin 2012 campaign to oust Dr. Utopia from the White House.

Democrats, after their behavior in 2008 towards Hillary Clinton and what they have done since Dr. Utopia took office, deserve to be out of power for 30 years.

WE ARE DYED-IN-THE-WOOL FORMER PARTY LOYALISTS SAYING THIS.

You might take this for granted if you come here every day and are used to us ripping into Democrat leaders…but, like we said, prior to 2008 our ire would have been turned exclusively toward Republicans.

The DNC’s behavior flipped us.  The Utopia campaign, and how it treated Hillary Democrats opened our eyes.  Articles about Jacksonian Democrats, like the one above, really make us think about where we fit into something much, much larger than ourselves.

It does not appear the DNC or White House have any idea what’s happening, but there’s very solid grounds to believe the Democrat Party has been destroyed.  We cannot count the number of former partisans we know who want nothing to do with Democrats ever again, not after Dr. Utopia and his Hopey-Change Gang, and the way they’ve treated Jacksonians.

For years, the MSM has claimed the GOP was on the path towards oblivion, becoming just a regional, Southern, religious party.

In fact, it’s Democrats who are so decimated…they are becoming a black, urban elite, fresh out of college party.

An argument could be made that Democrats, with the Healthcare Rationing push, have now lost elderly voters.  They may also, to some extent, be losing gay voters (because it’s obvious Dr. Utopia only pays lip service to the LGBTQ community).  The great hope for the DNC is ramming through amnesty to create new Democrat voters out of illegal immigrants…but it seems Hispanics have no loyalty to any party, really, and become increasingly conservative as they start to do better the longer they are established here.

The Clintons are the only thing keeping us in the Democrat Party at this point.  If not for President and Secretary Clinton, and whatever they have planned for the future, we’d be Independents.

According to the article above by Last, it appears there are millions of people like us, who might have some cultural or nostalgic reason for remaining nominally Democrat, but who’ve become so disgusted by the party’s lurch to the socialist Left that blind-party voting for us is history.

If you live near a Denny’s, go there today for a FREE Grand Slam breakfast.

This is an awesome thing Denny’s does once in a while.

So, take advantage of it.

Today you really CAN have a FREE breakfast.

How awesome is that?

*********************

What’s on your minds this Tuesday?

*********************

Hey, have you ever wanted to be more like Claire McCaskill?  Go on Twitter and friend us:

http://twitter.com/HillBuzz

We’re still not all that sure what Twitter is or why it’s good, but apparently sammiches are involved somehow…hence McCaskill’s thrall with it.

*********************

Maybe this is just something we’d notice in Boystown, but most of the chickens in the Denny’s ad above are drag-kings.

The male “chicken” is a rooster, which looks very little like a chicken.  (“That’s ’cause it looks like a rooster!”.  Thank you, Claire McCaskill).

The chickens in the Denny’s clip are all, thus, female.

So, a female president is in the Oval Office, with female Secret Service agents (though, for some reason, they’re all wearing ties).

Drag Kings wear ties.  Some are even quite fond of ties.

Some White House Chiefs of Staff were cross-dressing ballerinas in New York, many years ago.

It’s kind of cool Denny’s tied everything together like this, in an ad about chickens screaming, and the first Drag King female president.

How progressive are they?

Experiment: Google “Obama Unicorn Painting” and be disturbed. Extra, super creepy, mega disturbed.

Posted by hillbuzz under Uncategorized | Tags: , , |
[52] Comments 

Here’s the first page of what turns up for “Obama Unicorn Painting” in a Google image search:

H/t LassofTruth for tip.

There appear to be thousands of these paintings (made by mental patients, we think) of a naked Obama astride a unicorn, being rubbed down with oil by a unicorn, and doing things with unicorns that would be grossly inappropriate anywhere but deep within the bowels of Man’s Country in Andersonville.

We kind of like this shirt, actually (but wonder if people would think we were supporting Dr. Utopia if we wore it):

We get the joke, so it’s funny. But would Utopia cultists take it as a positive representation of the naive, effeminate socialist in the Oval Office, the one who promised so very much to so very many, but who has failed so miserably at everything he’s touched?

What think you?

Question: How much of the vote would Hillary Clinton take from Obama if she ran as a 2012 Independent?

Posted by hillbuzz under Uncategorized | Tags: , , |
[49] Comments 

First of all, this is more than just an exercise in fantasy — even though we don’t believe for a moment Hillary Clinton would ever run for office as an Independent.  She is a former Democrat First Lady. She was a Democrat Senator.  She’s currently a Democrat Secretary of State.

Clinton also knows third party candidates are merely spoilers.  They are pushed, usually by the Left, to take down another candidate by splitting his or her vote.  Think Ross Perot taking enough votes away from George H.W. Bush to hand the election to Bill Clinton in 1992…or Ralph Nader getting enough of Al Gore’s votes in 2000 to push George W. Bush over the top (an instance of Republicans using a third party candidate to hurt Democrats for a change).  Another example is the DNC using John Edwards in 2008 to hand the Iowa Caucus to Dr. Utopia, by taking enough of Hillary Clinton’s vote to give the DNC’s favored candidate the win.

In 2012, we believe the DNC will use Mike Bloomberg in New York as a Ross Perot-esque third party spoiler to take enough votes away from Sarah Palin to give Dr. Utopia a second term.  That’s the game plan.

A recent Marist poll showed this to be the case:  polling a race between the current president, Sarah Palin, and Mike Bloomberg as an Independent third party candidate. In that scenario, Dr. Utopia squeaks out a win.  Deliberately, Marist did not poll Dr. Utopia up against Palin in a head-to-head match, sans Bloomberg.  We believe that poll would show Palin leading the race, for the first time…something the MSM does NOT want you to see.

We wonder what would happen if someone ran a poll of Dr. Utopia vs. Sarah Palin vs. Hillary Clinton as an Independent.  Just for fun.

We bet Palin would win big in that race, since Clinton would take a very large share of Utopia’s votes away from him.

As we said, the likelihood of Clinton ever running as a third party candidate is ZERO.

We believe fostering third parties is highly dangerous, as you are just falling into the Democrats’ plans for 2012.

A third party candidate in the 2012 race is the only way Utopia gets that second term…you need to realize this and do everything you can to stop the DNC from getting away with this scheme. They are telegraphing their moves miles and years away.

Would Republicans really be stupid enough to throw votes to Bloomberg, at the expense of Palin, and hand Utopia a second term?

How much panic would a Utopia-Palin-Clinton poll cause the DNC?

What do you think of all of this?

The persistent attacks on Las Vegas are some of the dumbest things this administration continues to do

Posted by hillbuzz under Uncategorized | Tags: , , |
[26] Comments 

Read this editorial from Penn Jillette, of Penn & Teller fame.  90% of the time, this man is an insufferable ass, but he hits a homer in this piece.

It’s asinine to attack any convention, meeting, or group event for going to Las Vegas.

Las Vegas is a convention city…where you can get hotel rooms DIRT CHEAP…where the hotels can offer convention packages far superior to anything you could get in other cities.  Food is cheap in Vegas.  The unions there are not as strong as in places like Chicago, so your setup and tear-down fees are much, much cheaper than they are in the Midwest or Rust Belt. And, since the days of Elvis, there are plenty of go-go boys in Vegas too, now, so it’s not just the ostrich-feathered showgirls, folks.  That’s reason enough to go right there, that sure is.

Because of the affordability of everything, and the fun options available during down-time, more people are willing to shell out their own personal bucks on a trip to Vegas than they would coming to Chicago, Cleveland, Cincinnati, or Detroit in the dead of winter, so conventions in Vegas are much more productive than they would be elsewhere. If more people come to the convention, there’s a better chance the convention will turn a profit, and the people paying to set up booths at the convention will find the whole thing worthwhile since they will meet lots of new clients…which is the point of having the convention someplace desirable that people want to go to.

TRUST US:  we’ve worked special events for over a decade.  Some of us have worked in hotels.  All of us have worked projects where we needed people from across the country to come together for something.

Las Vegas is a city that depends on tourist and convention dollars.  So, not only does it make no sense to attack Vegas from the conventioneers’ point of view, but it’s dealing an unneeded blow to the Vegas economy when that’s the last thing it needs right now.

Attacking Las Vegas does NOT mean conventions will suddenly go to Cleveland or Pittsburgh instead.

Perhaps the convention just won’t happen.

That means a great many business deals that would have been formed at that convention just won’t happen.

Local economies, jobs, future enterprises, and a host of other important things are directly impacted by the thoughtless, reckless, and irresponsible nonsense spouted by our current president.

And if a Leftist like Penne Jillette, of all people, is calling Dr. Utopia out on this, you know it must be really bad.

The reason we think that “Green Police” ad is so funny in Chicago

Posted by hillbuzz under Uncategorized | Tags: , , , |
[27] Comments 

For a number of years, a few of us used to do freelance event planning and special projects gigs for the City of Chicago, working out of various city buildings, including the Cultural Center in the Loop (which, inside, looks like the Wizard’s Palace in the Emerald City of Oz…so check it out the next time you’re in our city).

Chicago is a very “Green Police” kind of town, with the Mayor offering carrots and sticks to get every new building constructed with green materials.  Some of this stuff we agree with wholeheartedly…like the rooftop gardens the Mayor demands on buildings.  We love those.  They are gorgeous.  They use up rain water.  They attract birds and other animals we love.  And they decrease the damage done by concrete urban heat islands in cities like Chicago.  Love rooftop gardens.

But, we think a lot of the other “Green Police” stuff is just garbage.

Especially when it comes to, well, garbage.

In Chicago, as noted, we worked in at least four different city buildings since 2005.  In all of those the SAME THING happened with all the “recycling”:  late at night, when all the garbage was taken away, it was dumped into one big dumpster on its way to a landfill.  During the daytime, when people were watching, there were “Green Policemen” in all the offices who would scold you for throwing an empty pop can into the trash…and these green shirts would embarrass people in meetings recounting tales of spotting them using styrofoam cups or whatever…but then, at night, the blue “recyclables” garbage and the regular “yucky” garbage was all dumped into the same giant containers by the cleaning staff.

There was only one dumpster outside the building, where all the garbage went to.

So, what was the point in the “green shirts” harassing everyone to separate the recyclables from the regular garbage?  It seems like all that haranguing was wasted energy, if all the garbage just ends up in the same place anyway.

Someone once tried to tell us that the garbage, after it was collected from the dumpster, was taken somewhere, magical, where it was separated into recyclable and non-recyclable pieces.

To us, that sounds like “the farm” parents tell their children various pets went to live at, when they got too sick or old.  That “farm” might be one exit before the “recycling plant” where all those bags of trash are separated out and neatly recycled so all the Leftists can sleep soundly on their hemp mattresses under their cruelty-free non-down down covers.

Question: Does Iran already have a nuclear bomb?

Posted by hillbuzz under Uncategorized | Tags: , , , |
[85] Comments 

We’re very concerned about this — because Iran’s ratcheting up that “we will deliver unto the West a major punch on February 11th” rhetoric.

That’s unusual for them.

Typically, whenever they say they are going to do something “spectacular” on a certain day, they tend to forget about doing anything before that day approaches.  There have been numerous times, through the years, when Iran has promised to “teach the West a lesson”, and then nothing happens.

It could be that Mossad or MI-5 stopped them from doing whatever they wanted to do…but today is February 8th, so the 11th is just a few days from now.  And now not just Ahmadinejad is talking about something “spectacular”, but Ayatollah Khamenei is saying this in public too.

That worries us because Khamenei doesn’t usually join in on choruses like this.  He’s not insane or stupid, while Ahmadinejad is a combination of the two.  Khamenei is a calculated and deliberative man…one who knows his powers as Ayatollah are based largely on the fear and awe he inspires in the Muslim population.  He’s like a self-proclaimed sorcerer who only performs tricks and puts on a show when he knows he can dazzle.  If he promises to pull a rabbit out of his turban, but yanks out only lint instead, his power as Ayatollah diminishes.

The fact Khamenei is promising something “spectacular” on the 11th should rattle everyone.

It means Mossad and MI-5 were not able to stop this…YET.

Our gut instinct is that Iran bought a nuke from either Pakistan, North Korea, or a Muslim former Soviet Republic. They don’t have a missile capable of hitting a target like Israel, and the nuke is probably a smaller, low-yield kind that Iran has not been able to reverse-engineer and replicate for whatever reason.  It might be one of the missing suitcase nukes that disappeared after the Soviet Union collapsed…and instead of trying to smuggle it into Manhattan or Washington, Iran’s just going to detonate it in the desert, to great fanfare.

Like Saddam Hussein’s bluster, Iran will claim it has many more of these nukes…but we bet they just had the one, or maybe two, with something in reserve in case the West tries to smack back at Iran for testing their new weapon.  Remember:  the US only had two atomic bombs in 1945.  But, that was enough to change the world.

A Muslim country exploding a nuclear device would be world-changing as well.

It would also be a colossal failure of the current US president, who promised his mere presence on the international scene would lead to a thousand years of hope, change, peace, and unicorns.

What it appears it’s led to is Iran exploding a nuclear device on February 11th “to teach the West a lesson”.

We hope we are very, very wrong on this.

But, we’d been hoping Ahmadinejad would forget about February 11th all of a sudden, no further mention of it would be made, and the day would pass without any sort of event.

Khamenei just raised the stakes on all of this, though.

What is Iran up to?
