Larwyn's Linkfest: Sarah Palin is a stewardess!

Native Americans Against Obama: Welcome back, Jeremiah Wright!

Newsbusters: UPI Charges ABC With Biased 'Double Standard' in Palin Interview ("Charles Gibson of ABC News was out for blood and inherently applied a double-standard compared with the kid gloves George Stephanopoulos used on Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois on Sunday night... Gibson was out to embarrass Palin and expose her presumed ignorance from the word go. By contrast, when Obama referred to his "Muslim faith" on Sunday and did not correct himself, Stephanopoulos rushed in at once to help him and emphasize that the senator had really meant to say his Christian faith.")

Ace of Spades: Bill Maher's expert characterization of Sarah Palin: "She's a stewardess."

Don Surber: He's Baracking Up:

Obama June 30 (up 5 in the Gallup): "I Will Never Question the Patriotism of Others."

Obama Sept. 12 (down 4 in the Gallup): "So, when American workers hear John McCain talking about putting 'Country First,' it's fair to ask –- which country?"

That Ivy League education and those 20 years of spiritual guidance from the Rev. Jeremiah Wright are really paying off as Obama cracks up under pressure. Let's see, calling people pigs. Mocking a guy who is too crippled to type on a keyboard. And questioning the patriotism of a Silver Star honoree.

Dan Riehl just hit his limit:

Maybe it's time the media did some serious looking into the early travels of a fellow who wants to be President, not Vice President of the United States - Barack Obama.

This isn't crazy Obama Muslim Manchurian candidate stuff. Remember the Clintonite who off-handedly dropped the "drug dealer" line during the primaries? Well, anyone can source this below based upon MSM accounts, the news at the time or the few simple links provided. It's certainly enough to make me curious about some things.

By 1980 at Occidental Obama ran partly with a circle of wealthy, drug using Pakistani friends. He traveled to Pakistan between Occidental and Columbia in 1981. That was during the Second Military Era (1977-1988) - Pakistan was under Sharia Law and not the most welcoming to foreign visitors, especially without some graft or connections.

Based upon documented accounts, Obama seems to have also traveled the country-side, not just in the cities. By 1981 Pakistan had become the world's number one supplier of Heroin. Upon his return Obama took up residence with one of the drug using Pakistanis in a run down, presumably drug infested part of NYC in an apartment they couldn't qualify for based on income.

Larwyn's Links: Why oh why did we kick Hillary to the curb?

Editor's Note: Larwyn is in the process of moving, but I was able to connect with Larwyn's spiritual aura (hat tip: Rielle Hunter) to produce the following links.

Jammie Wearing Fool: Key players at the Democratic National Convention: A radical Islamist and Jeremiah Wright in a skirt.

Pajamas Media: The mainstream media and Democratic pundits (but I repeat myself) are publicly fretting over kicking the Clintons to the curb and nominating a man with “tissue thin” record.

Gateway Pundit: Its two... two... two citizenships in one!

Macsmind: The fact is... the mainstream media hid the Edwards affair. And Instapundit (via Vanderleun) asks the critical question appropos of Eason Jordan: So now that we know that the press covered for Edwards -- just as, pre-invasion, they covered for Saddam -- that raises a question: What else are they not telling us for fear it will hurt the Democrats' prospects?

Astute Bloggers: This is not a media that cares about the American people being informed; this is a media that only wants to manipulate the people and the way the people vote towards its own (outdated, bankrupt) ideology.

Charlie Foxtrot: Chokin' Hope.

Larwyn's Link Kerplosion: Iranian Missiles in Venezuela

Wall Street Journal: Wal-Mart Warns of Democratic Win:

[the company] is mobilizing its store managers and department supervisors around the country to warn that if Democrats win power in November, they'll likely change federal law to make it easier for workers to unionize companies -- including Wal-Mart.

Perhaps the Unions can do for Wal-Mart what they've done for GM, Ford and Chrysler.

And aren't there, like, 4,000 different government agencies that now protect workers' rights, working conditions, safety, ...? Just wondering.

Fausta: Iranian missiles are in Venezuela. Not to worry, Democrats tell us that there's no need for missile defense.

Don Surber: How 'bout nitrogen in those bus tires?:

The Empty Suit on drilling on Thursday, as blogged by the New York Times:

"It won't lower prices today. It won't lower prices during the next Administration. While this won't save you at the pump, it sure has done a lot to help Senator McCain raise campaign dollars."

The Empty Suit on Friday, from the NYT:

"If, in order to get that passed, we have to compromise in terms of a careful, well thought-out drilling strategy that was carefully circumscribed to avoid significant environmental damage — I don't want to be so rigid that we can't get something done."

Translation: The people want drilling. Welcome to the underside of the bus, Mr. Drilling Ban. Hey, as long as you are down there, how about checking the tire inflation?

Dan Riehl: Firm leadership with the courage to make the tough decisions, stick to them, all wrapped-up in a new kind of politics.

• Don Surber: 'People of the World, Look at Berlin!'

• Atlas: Obama's foreign contributions: who is Ronald Hickel?: "John and I, in continuing to pour over these documents in the old fashion way, tedious line by tedious line, have found dozens, literally dozens of instances in which people have clearly made contributions over the applicable $2300 per individual limit, without consequence or direction to the Obama campaign to disgorge such illegally gotten fund..."

• A Blog for All: Why Obama will never be President: "Does he have a single position today that was the same on January 1 2008? Okay, I'm being sarcastic, but not by much. He has flip-flopped on Iraq, FISA, federal campaign money, just to name a couple. Plus, I think his and the Dem's 'no drilling for oil, at anytime, anywhere' is going to kill them both in November."

• Gateway Pundit: Obama visits Iraq and asks 'Why is FOX always on?" and then goes on to ask, "Is that the commander in chief's choice?" Atlas has the video. Hint: Armed Forces Radio and Televsion offer all major stations. The Armed Forces are choosing Fox. Cheezus.

Larwyn's Link Kerplosion: Total FARC!

• Jeff G. of Protein Wisdom reacts to news that Saddam Hussein had 550 metric tons of Uranium, all of which was successfully transported to Canada.

Now, before you dull, neocon chickenhawk dupes (whose gullibility encouraged smarter and more discriminating Dem congresspeople to set aside their concerns and their principles and vote us overwhelmingly into a fake war based on the lying lies of lying liars who lied) get to feeling all vindicatey, please note that yellowcake itself — even 550 metric tons of the stuff — is not, without further enrichment, capable of causing anything more than a panic. And Saddam was far too busy writing romance novels and terrorizing Kurds and Marsh Arabs to even dream about further enriching the stuff.

My guess? He was just keeping it around in case Joe Wilson ever lipped off to him. Then he’d be all like, “you’ve been punk’d!”

So, you know, no harm, no foul.

In fact, I’m not sure what business it is of ours to worry about such a benign stockpile of harmless fluff. Perhaps if we spent less time removing 550 metric tons of yellowcake from the middle east and more time concentrating on the global warming climate change crisis and the rising cost of oil (and no, advocating for additional drilling, new refineries, and nuclear energy do NOT count as viable methods of amelioration, you greedy earth-gorging eco-robber barons), poor people who don’t give a flying fig about Iraq wouldn’t be forced to buy sub-standard arugula on the black market of color.

Get with the program, pigs. YES YOU CAN!

Larwyn's Link Kerplosion: Bob Beckel bans himself from TV!

• Froma Harrop: Obama's confusing poetry.

• BBC: Gaza voices: a year of Hamas.

• Country Store: Obama's brother Malik says his sibling will be a good president "despite his Muslim background".

Malik must not have gotten the email.

• American Digest: Roll your own Obama Posters!

• American Thinker (J.R. Dunn): Conservatives must not practice the politics of despair:

Let's keep in mind that Obama is merely the latest invincible candidate. We saw another one just recently, one who strode the earth like a colossus, who knew all the tricks, who had an unbeatable organization, an answer for everything, a plan that could not be overturned. A candidate who embodied liberalism as a world-historical force.

That was only last year. Her name was Hillary Clinton.

• LGF: The Audacity of Bob Beckel; and Gateway Pundit has the five-second summary:

Back on June 3, 2008 Bob Beckel told the Fox News audience that a big shoe was about to drop and that it had something to do with Michelle Obama (the dreaded "whitey" tape)... The blogosphere went wild over this rumor he started... Today Beckel said that whoever started that rumor should be banned from television

I'm thinkin' that ban is a heck of an idea.
