No Runny Eggs

The repository of one hard-boiled egg from the south suburbs of Milwaukee, Wisconsin (and the occassional guest-blogger). The ramblings within may or may not offend, shock and awe you, but they are what I (or my guest-bloggers) think.

The Morning Scramble (Part 2) – 10/22/2008

by @ 10:56 on October 22, 2008. Filed under The Morning Scramble.

I’ll try to limit the Obamination in Part 2. Can’t say I’ll be entirely successful, so let’s have some blues as we dive in…

  • Before we get to the heavy stuff; a news item that is a bit personal – the gang at Tuscarora Outfitters report that the idiot that started the Ham Lake fire 2 years ago has been indicted. I use Tuscarora for my yearly canoe trips, and that fire nearly burned them down (they did lose an outbuilding), so I want the book tossed at that idiot.
  • Ed Morrissey explores how few Americans will have a net tax liability in the next administration. As I have said off and on lately, we are rushing toward Europe; the only choice is Western or Eastern circa 1985.
  • Perri Nelson notes the socialist water is just about at a boil.
  • Owen notes a disturbing economic trend – a renewed interest in Karl Marx, the original Communist. One thing I remember Dad29 telling me at Drinking Right-Milwaukee (or was it Blog ‘N Grog?), Marx said that a revolution wasn’t exactly necessary in the US (or the UK).
  • Frank Lasee explains why socialism doesn’t work.
  • Fausta caught Argentina trying to socialize the pensions. She also warns that the same is in the works here.
  • Maj. Pain opens the NSN bureau to report that John McCain is leading Barack Obama 3-1 among military personnel.
  • Trail-Mix lists “just a few” reasons why he’s voting for McCain instead of Obama.
  • Moe Lane notes that the McCain campaign and the RNC are walking the walk by publicizing those who donate less than $200. Gee, I wonder why the Obama campaign isn’t following suit.
  • Slublog notes that no less than Obama supporter and Pennsylvania governor Ed Rendell (D) isn’t buying the overcooked pro-Obama polls.
  • Doc explores the presstitutes’ role in the Dirtiest Campaign Evah™.
  • How far in the Obaminaton Express are the presstitutes? Lawhawk notes even Dan Rather admits the full tank job.
  • Stephan Tawney reports a second all-the-way-in-the-tank presstitute has been grounded from the Straight Talk Express flights. Gee, I wonder why an opinion columnist who has done nothing but bash McCain (Joe Klein) would get booted from the McCain campaign plane </sarcasm>. Actually, I wonder why they bother to still talk with him.
  • William Teach wonders why the New York Times Sedition Slimes would be bummed about having to photograph the success that is The Surge.
  • How successful? Uncle Jimbo reports on the success story that is Gryphon Airlines.
  • Of course, not all news is good – Wyatt Earp notes that asking questions of the local cult gets one 20 years in Afghanistan. Given all the ObamiNation In Your Face Violence tour news and casual tosses of “racism” highlighted in Part 1, I wonder when that will be codified here.
  • Lance Burri takes a dark look at the future under the ‘Rats.
  • Bill Quick explores what passes for a legal system in that frozen country of good walleye, long waits for health care, and hyper-political correctness to our north. Again, if you think it can’t happen here, just take a good look at what the ObamiNation Cult is offering.
  • Speaking of that long wait for health care, Walter E. Williams has a wake-up call on that. Whether it’s “Healthy” (and Depopulated) Wisconsin, or Obama’s health plan, or HillaryCare 2.0, socialized medicine does not work.
  • Brian Fraley pictures the Axis of Taxes.
  • He forgot one – Peter spotlights Barney Frank’s plan to tax the rich until there are no rich no more.
  • John McAdams caught the majority of the Milwaukee County Board of Supervisors rubbing right up against (and IMHO crossing) the line against electioneering in favor of an advisory referendum calling for a tripling of Milwaukee County’s sales tax (from 0.5% to 1.5%). For those not in the Milwaukee area, that would make Milwaukee’s sales tax anywhere between 9.5% and 16.7% higher than surrounding counties (depending on the county and item bought). I previously ran the math on that here.
  • William Amos explores why the GOP is failing in its campaign strategy.
  • Nick Schweitzer makes the non-partisan case against voter registration drives.
  • Soren Dayton explains how the Left “legitimizes” voter fraud. Remember, it’s all about winning by any means necessary every means available for them.
  • Mark Tapscott exposes Anthony Socci for the Algore Goracle shill he is.
  • Owen observed Wisconsin governor Jim Doyle (D) proving that even blind squirrels occassionally find a nut by asking the EPA to declare in compliance the 6 counties the EPA pre-emptively declared (by 6 years) out-of-compliance of fine particulate pollution because they will be in compliance by the time those standards are actually in effect.
  • Marshall Manson found the next target of those that have a visceral hatred of weapons – knives. I kid you not; (formerly) Great Britian has declared a war on knives after their “successful” war on guns simply changed the weaponry that thugs use in crimes.

And some people wonder why I don’t do these every day anymore. There’s too many good bloggers out there, both those I do manage to read (at last count, somewhere north of 270), and those I don’t. Not that I’m complaining about that situation :-)
