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.
Tonight, 8 pm – Smog ‘n Grog – Nice Ash – 327 W Main St in Waukesha
Tuesday, 7 pm – Drinking Right Election Edition – Papa’s – 7718 W Burleigh in Milwaukee
Programming note; because I will be volunteering my time and talent to the poll watching on Tuesday, I don’t know when I’ll be in there, or when I’ll be able to launch a liveblog of the election. I will figure out some way to get it done.
The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review reports that Anita Moncrief, a former staffer for Project Vote, a sister organization of ACORN, testified in court that Project Vote received a “donor list” from the Obama campaign in late 2007 for fundraising efforts. Further, she claims to have a copy of a “development plan” that outlines how maxed-out Obama contributors would be targeted to give to Project Vote, and that she had taken a call from a campaign working asking whether it was the same organization that Obama had worked with in the 1990s.
Guess the acorns definitely don’t fall far from the tree.
Of course, this wouldn’t be complete without an ObamiNation In Your Face moment – Moncrief stated she received repeated warnings to “back off” from testifying in the hearing in a lawsuit brought by the Pennsylvania GOP against ACORN and the Secretary of the Commonwealth to make the voter registration process more transparent and less-prone to fraud.
Fausta reports that The Gap has been selling buttons that say “Vote Twice” as part of their Get Out The Vote campaign. No, it is not “cute”, or “innocent” to advocate vote fraud.
My standard is Every Legitimate Voter Has His Or Her Votes Counted Once And Only Once.
Side note; do not confuse the fact that this is the second one in the row with a decision to try to do this daily again. You do not want to see how bloated the feed reader has become.
Katie Favazza explores the relationship between Barack Obama and former Palestinion Liberation Organization spokesman Rashid Khalidi.
Purple Avenger finds the Los Angeles Times admitting they’re buring the Obama/Khalidi tape.
JammieWearingFool found them not affording the same protection to Republicans. I’m shocked, SHOCKED, even though California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger’s picture is next to RINO in the dictionary.
Mondo Frazier exposes the October Auto Surprise attempt by Vanity Fair and the National Security News Service. Never mind that the “first-hand sources” talking to them can’t even tell what happened 44 years ago. I will say this; Mary Jo Kopechne is unavailable for comment.
Dad29 offers a case for calling Obama’s run the 5th FDR administration.
Kate notes the similarities to the FDR/Obama Second Bill of Rights and the Soviet constitution.
Thomas Lifson found a familiar new aspect to the Obama logo; the Communist Red Star.
We shouldn’t be surprised; Patrick found Obama admitting a lifelong affinity to Marxists.
Bill Smith points out that the wealth-spreading Obama promised Joe the Plumber won’t be limited to our borders.
Ed Lasky reports the Obama campaign has admitted taking prepaid credit cards for payment of donations. I wonder how much of that is responsible for tonight’s gabfest.
Todd Lohenry found Obama’s wish list for Santa. Let’s give him a lump of coal instead.
James T. Harris observed the ObamiNation In Your Face tour invading a local restaurant so arrogantly they got booted.
Thomas Lifson connects the dots on one Amy Little, former campaign manager for Rep. John Hall (D-NY), who suddenly registered herself to vote in Ohio while maintaining her residence in New York.
Darleen Click has the poster of the day – the Three Amigos of Nancy Pelosi, Obama and Harry Reid. That was in response to Pelosi saying that an increased ‘Rat majority would be “more bipartisan”.
Bill Quick has the quote of the day in response to a call for more-effective government – “Hi, we’re the government, and we’re here to help you really good and hard” (emphasis in the original).
GayPatriotWest found another casualty of the endless Presidential campaign – attention on the teen-approval-rating Congress. It still boggles me how the ‘Rats will extend their gains there after running the worst Congress ever.
I know; this is already too long, but I can’t close without this one – Wyatt Earp found a study that says that farting is good for you. Now somebody get a match.
John McCain has said that he will not use Jeremiah Wright as an issue in this campaign. He believes that it is a “religious issue” and outside the bounds of political discussion. I’m not sure how someone who Obama himself said was a “mentor,” someone who believes that the US purposely distributed AIDs to African Americans and has openly supported Kadhafi, Louis Farrakhan and Hamas isn’t a political issue but…
If McCain won’t pick up Wright as an issue himself, he now has help. the National Repulican Trust PAC has picked up advertising time in a number of states and will be running this ad:
If you’re interested in aiding the funding of the buy for this ad you can go here.
Temperatures that are more than 15 degrees below normal for this time of year, combined with strong northwest winds, are making today uncomfortably chilly in the Charlotte metro region.
Expert Senior Meteorologist Brett Anderson says, “This is a big storm by October standards.” More a foot of snow will fall in the Pocono Mountains of northeastern Pennsylvania and the Adirondacks in upstate New York.
We now return you to our regularly scheduled complaints about BUUUUUUUUUUUUUSH!

I feel like the duck at the end of the commercial after he hears Yogi explain that “they give you cash which is just as good as money!”
Yes I feel like the duck after reading this article.
The article is an interview with Nancy Pelosi. In it, she explains why having an “All Democrat, all the time” Congress would be a good thing. It’s mostly typical drivel from Pelosi until she gets to this pearl of wisdom:
“Elect us, hold us accountable, and make a judgment and then go from there. But I do tell you that if the Democrats win, and have substantial majorities, Congress of the United States will be more bipartisan,” said Pelosi.
AAAAAAAAAAACCCCCCK?
Having Democrat majorities in both chambers will make Congress more “bipartisan?” Pelosi proved this session, by shutting off debate and not accepting amendments, what she believes “bipartisan” to be. The only way you could consider a lopsided Democrat control of Congress as “bipartisan” would be that there would be no effective means to argue with any of Pelosi’s halfwit ideas and petulant demands.
Bipartisan, my butt! Dictatorship, despotism, authoritarianism, autocray, totalitarianism and tyranny, maybe!
