Continued Calls for Corruption-Buster Ann Claire Williams to Take Her Place on the SCOTUS
Here’s a great read in the Chicago Tribune today, about Ann Claire Williams and the dynamo for Justice she’d be on the bench of the Supreme Court of the United States.
We’ve met her.
We have friends who know her very well.
To encounter her is to find yourself in the presence of quiet, humble greatness — a woman of immense intellect with a common, everyday touch. Someone who is kind and sweet, quiet, but who musters the roar of a hurricane from the bench when the need arises.
Oh, she stuck it to the Daley Machine but good, upholding corruption convictions.
She was sent to the bench by President Reagan and elevated to a higher court by President Clinton — because whether you are a Republican or a Democrat, if you want Justice served with a side order of fairness and respect for the Constitution, Ann Claire Williams is who you want on that bench.
Here’s just part of why we like this woman so much (pay attention to that last line):
Before she became a lawyer, Williams was a music and third-grade teacher in the inner-city public schools of Detroit. She has an undergraduate degree in elementary education from Wayne State University and a master’s in guidance and counseling from the University of Michigan.
Williams attended law school at the University of Notre Dame, where she graduated in 1975. Her entire legal career has been spent in the confines of the Dirksen Federal Courthouse in Chicago, including a nine-year stint in the U.S. attorney’s office, where she served as the Midwest chief of a nationwide narcotics task force.
Williams has described herself as a political independent. At her confirmation hearing for the appellate post in late 1999, Williams stressed that she did not consider herself a judicial activist. “We don’t legislate in the courts,” she told lawmakers.
Judges should not legislate. Ever.
The Supreme Court should not legislate from the bench.
A certain “wise Latina” might not understand that, so here’s hoping the second SCOTUS appointment in this presidency is a woman like Ann Claire Williams, who has read the Constitution, and who knows its her duty to protect the separation of governmental powers.
There is no better pick for the court than this remarkable woman. We wish there was more we could do for her nomination than just sing her praises, but here’s hoping many of you take a look at her background and performance on the bench and come to the conclusion that this is the nomination we should all be rooting for.
Question: Are Democrats blackmailing Lindsey Graham into supporting the destruction of our economy through Cap & Tax?
For reasons his own, Lindsey Graham's official Senate photo contains this shout-out to Bette Davis. This does not in of itself prove he's gay, as it's common practice for men in North Carolina to include photos of Davis in their official portraits, just as guys in South Carolina use Joan Crawford in theirs. Hence, the bad blood between North and South continues the greatest feud in all of Hollywood.
The Eric Massa Affair proved something that’s only been speculated about for some time: that Democrats blackmail closeted gay men in Congress to do what the Left wants them to do.
When they, like Massa, step out of line and fail to follow their marching orders, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, Tim Kaine, and the current White House out them, publicly humiliate them, and destroy their lives and sham families.
Massa was a Democrat, so the only chance of him ever being outed was crossing Pelosi on something, and he did that in the leadup to the Obamacare ram-down.
Closeted gay Republicans in Washington are in a stranger bind, because while Democrats will only turn on their own in rare instances like Massa’s, closet cases in the GOP need to constantly toe the line and appease their blackmailers, lest they become the new Larry Craig, Mark Foley, or Trent Lott — all victims of the Democrat-MSM politically-driven outing machine.
Whenever a Republican votes bizarrely, for something as insane and economy-killing as Cap & Tax, chances are he’s been blackmailed into doing it. Look to Illinois’ congressional delegation for men who’ve been victim of this.
It’s why we continually hope Aaron Schock comes out in the next few years — hopefully at the next National Coming Out Day. He’s a nice guy, and he’d make a great Senator. He’d probably be excellent at the national level once he’s had more experience. But, unless he comes out, he’s just going to become someone like Lidsay Graham — and will spend decades in Washington being blackmailed by the Left into supporting madness, because he doesn’t want his homosexuality exposed.
Just come out already, and take the power away from Democrats.
If Republicans would just stand up and be who they are, the Left would lose so much power. Stop lying. Stop hiding. Stop being blackmailed.
We have never seen one benefit of this Cap & Tax monstrosity. It’s a job killer. It will have absolutely no impact on the environment, as China and India refuse to enact such economy-dampening measures in their countries. The net result of this madness will be shuttered factories, which will be moved overseas, where doing business is now cheaper because of Cap & Tax. Higher costs will mean more expensive food and consumer goods, at a time when food is already the most expensive in 26 years and the government is set to increase taxes on both businesses and consumers drastically.
No good will come of this.
So, why is Graham pushing it?
What do Democrats have on him?
If Republicans were smart, they’d take the hit and out Graham themselves. If they were brilliant, they’d take the opportunity to out all gay Republicans at once. Bring them all out of the closet, like ripping a Band-Aid off quickly, in one swoop, instead of allowing Democrats the leisure of torturously peeling off one of these closet cases at a time, whenever it best serves their political agenda.
Yes, it’s scary when you first come out. People treat you differently. Family and friends won’t speak to you in many cases. Your whole life shifts poles.
But, scarier than all of this is the thought the White House, Nancy Pelosi, Harry Reid, and the DNC dangle a pink sword of Damocles over the heads of enough Republicans to blackmail them into voting against the country’s best interests because they don’t want their nocturnal adventures exposed.
If these guys would just expose themselves publicly — in the sense that wouldn’t get them arrested, like Craig — and came clean (no entendre intended), the DNC wouldn’t know what to do with itself (though, we bet, Rahm Emanuel and Obama could teach them a few tricks).
BREAKING: Greatest Vice President ever endorses Marco Rubio.
(Florida’s orange Governor Charlie Crist — in pink and teal — taking his mind off today’s announcement with a little retail therapy)
***********************
One of the things that absolutely makes guys in Boystown blanche, more than our support for Sarah Palin, is our recently found respect and admiration for Dick Cheney.
We have a framed picture of him up on the walls here in Buzzquarters, in our Hall of Heroes, and when people come over they say, “We don’t get it. Why is this funny”.
“It’s not funny. It’s Vice President Dick Cheney, American Hero and Gay Icon”.
“You done lost your minds”.
Never before in American history has anyone in the executive branch of government been more supportive of LGBTQ rights than Dick Cheney. Never before have we had a Vice President who loved America more, or who went to bat for this country with just about everything he’s got.
We, as a nation, are blessed Cheney took such a strong role in raising his two daughters, Liz and Mary, because a lot of him rubbed off on them, Liz especially.
She’s a future president herself, and we can’t wait to campaign for her, even if we’ll never get the chance to campaign or volunteer for Cheney himself. Will just have to settle for Liz as she makes her way in politics — and if you’ve seen her in action, if this is settling, then let’s all settle away. She’s a firecracker, just like her pop.
Cheneys rule.
Especially when they’re giving the smack down to some putz that deserves it — like Florida’s orange Governor, the sniveling Charlie “Sweet Charlotte” Crist.
Cheney endorsed Marco Rubio today, which should make Crist melt white, like a dreamsicle.
Uh, would you want Dick Cheney rooting against you? From a secure and undisclosed location.
Joe Biden spends his days plotting to steal people’s ice cream, like the Trix Rabbit, but lactose tolerant.
Dick Cheney spends his days plotting and scheming to bring down Leftists and save America. Even if you’re his friend, there’s a chance he could shoot you in the face if you get in his way.
Oh, Great Merciful Zeus, we love that.
And we love him.
There, we said it. We love Dick Cheney. In the same way we love apple pie, puppies, the Statue of Liberty, and the national anthem.
Because all those things are AWESOME.
What’s the most hideous dress Michelle Obama has worn so far?
What’s the most hideous dress Michelle Obama has worn so far?
(1) Her Wilma Flintstone-Marries-Mr. Coffee-Ragamuffin Inaugural Gown
Designed for a drag queen by Jason Wu, but worn by the new first lady
(2) Her Nursing-Home-Cat-Pee-Bat-Bow Frock
(3) Her Black-Widow-Spider-Election-Night-Halloween-Costume
(4) Her Disheveled-Sloppy-Flying-Around-On-Air-Force-One Outfit
Class vs. Crass
What other terrible outfits worn by our current first lady do you think warrant inclusion in her Hideous Dress Hall of Shame?
No More Beans or Broccoli for Rahm Emanuel
Remember when some farmers went nuts in the 80s because George H. W. Bush admitted he didn’t like broccoli? There was a huge uproar that the president didn’t eat broccoli. While we love Poppy Bush, and we love broccoli too, we don’t have to go all Sophie’s Choice or crazy with that. He can not eat broccoli in the White House house if he doesn’t want to eat broccoli, and really, not even farmers should have an opinion on that one way or the other.
Now, with Rahm Emanuel, though, based on what he’s doing on the Charlie Rose Show, we’re thinking a no-broccoli, no-beans, no-Mexican food order should be imposed on the White House Chief of Staff.
If he does this while sitting peacefully in a chair, just imagine what it would have been like dancing with him when he was a ballerina back in New York in the 70s. We would not have wanted to be around when this one launched himself into the air or came landing down upon the stage, in his pastel tights, losing control and letting it all rip.
No thanks.
How embarrassing that this is the face, and the flatulence, the White House chooses to send out into the world to represent it, and by extension, the American people. A man who used to party with Warhol and Capote as a disco diva by night, ballerina by day, who spouts all manner of foul noise out both ends, and who dreams of being Chicago’s Mayor so he could, presumably, behave like this while running our city into the ground.
Rose should be thankful for small favors, though. If he had been interviewing Oprah, especially on chili day down at Harpo Studios, he might not have survived to commercial break.
Hope!
Change!
Toot!
Who is the Religion of Peace trying to kill today? Islam declares war on South Park, and a cartoon bear too.
The Prophet Muhammad, center, as depicted by South Park
Islam, the Religion of Peace, has now declared war on South Park and its creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone.
Their crime? Depicting Muhammad as a cartoon bear.
According to the Religion of Peace, death is the punishment for so much as drawing a picture of Muhammad — because, apparently, he was so ugly when alive that the Scientology of the Middle Ages realized how detrimental his image would be to brand-management potential. If you’re going to start a destructive apocalyptic cult bent on world domination and the dhimmihood of the West, then you can’t have someone vomit-inducing plastered on your tee shirts and fatwa-commemorating plates.
Muslims are saying Parker and Stone should “wind up like Theo Van Gogh” for depicting Muhammad in their cartoon. Van Gogh, if you recall, was brutally murdered by the Religion of Peace in the Netherlands for making a movie called “Submission”, about how horrible Muslims are to women. Other Dutchmen were threatened and attacked by “peaceful Muslims” for drawing a political cartoon of Muhammad with a bomb for a turban. Religion of Peace adherent Anwar al-Awlaki has been calling for the assassination of anyone defaming Muhammad, be it on film, in cartoons, or possibly just thinking about how backwards and ruthlessly misogynistic/homophobic/anti-Western Islam is.
Apparently, this means Muslims must still be systematically hunting down the entire cast and production crew of the movie “The Goonies”, as the deformed Fratelli brother Sloth appears to be based, quite accurately, on the only physical depictions of Muhammad carried down through history.
It’s fascinating whenever the Religion of Peace calls for violence against cartoonists, because it reminds us all just why the Left in America is always so quick to jump to Islam’s defense and promote dhimmihood in the West.
Islam and the Left both employ Alinsky’s Methods.
They are, essentially, indistinguishable from one another in their methods, and in the way they personalize attacks on their opponents with laser-like intensity, vowing to completely destroy them for any perceived infractions.
And, like Islam, the Left happens to be at the absolute zenith of its power currently. It’s using everything it’s got to pummel all resistance, because it thinks its finally managed to seize power permanently.
But, both are wrong.
While nations like Britain, France, the Netherlands, and Scandinavian countries have been profoundly stupid for the last several decades, and have allowed Shari’a law to creep into their nations and force dhimmihood upon their people, we believe a reckoning is coming soon. Just as the Left currently controls America, but will be out of power soon enough. And, once removed, it will be generations before the Left can climb its way back.
Islam does not realize the damage it does itself by coming after cartoonists. It makes it hard for even the Left in this country to defend the Religion of Peace when it wants to chop people like Parker and Stone to pieces. Over a cartoon.
The more of this that happens, the more people wake up to just how dangerous, unstable, criminal, and cultish Muslims can be, and just what a complete and total crock that Religion of Peace nonsense truly is.
David "Popcorn" Kernell Trial Watch: Day Three
Obama operative David "Popcorn" Kernell could - and should - go to jail for 50 years.
According to this article over at ABC News, Obama operative David “Popcorn” Kernell could go to prison for 50 years for his assault on Governor Sarah Palin and her family.
Popcorn is the son of Obamacrat Mike “Terrible Father” Kernell, who apparently taught his son everything he knows about right and wrong. Hopefully, voters will do to the father what jurors do to the son when this trial is over. How people could send this man back to elected office is just beyond us.
Here are some new, interesting bits to this trial revealed in the ABC report:
*Bristol Palin has testified about the abuse she suffered from Popcorn, because he found her personal cell phone number after breaking into Palin’s email. Popcorn then published that number to the world, causing Bristol a great deal of inconvenience and disruption, as well as sending vulgar, hateful prank calls her way.
* Popcorn took over Palin’s email account and sent horrific messages to Palin’s friends and family members, posing as the Governor. That’s where the identity theft aspect of this case appears to come in. Popcorn pretended to be Governor Palin, searched through the email addresses on the account, then sent people messages posing as her. The messages he sent were vile, and intended to cause disruptions in the Governor’s life that would take her eyes off the presidential election, thus helping the Kernell’s candidate, Obama the Lightbringer.
* The Palins’ privacy and constitutional rights were violated by Obama operative Kernell. All of their personal messages, emails, and lines of communication were rifled through and exposed for the world to see. This violation was done by a political operative, raised in the home of an elected Democrat official, for the expressed purpose of furthering Obama’s campaign.
We hope Popcorn gets all 50 years at sentencing and spends the rest of his life in prison for what he did. It’s a shame his father Mike can’t go along with him.
Governor Palin herself is expected to testify either today or tomorrow in this case. Apparently, the trial is being held in a very Palin-friendly part of the state. We hope her presence persuades jurors to throw the book at Popcorn.
What are you hearing about the trial today? Anything knew you have learned about all the terrible things Popcorn did? How do you think he will handle prison life?
