Update

Contrary to popular belief I have not died, joined the ministry or been abducted by D.H.S.

I will be back, the site it not dead nor have I run out of ideas.  A 12 graduate credit semester while working full-time has been very busy to say the least. 

Thanks to all of you who still visit on a regular basis and send little notes of support and/or praise.  Broadside will be back up in 2010 just in time for some good ol’ fashion mid-term elections.

Until then, Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Huffington Post: Dirty Thieves

It should really come as no surprise that a website that celebrates government stealing from hard working Americans would they themselves be thieves.

On Nov. 8th I created a new image called “Big Government” taking the brilliant Grant Wood painting and changing it up a little bit to symbolize the ever expanding power and control of government under the Obama administration.

Today, Nov. 11th, I stop by Huffington Post to get my daily laugh in and see a copy of my image minus the American flag behind the capitol building.

You stay classy Mother-Huffers. 

Also on a side note, if you are going to copy my original ideas could you at least find somebody who has some semblance of artistic talent?

UPDATE:  Thank you to Michelle Malkin for posting my ‘Americrooks’ image today and giving me full credit!  You can check it HERE.

Obamacare: Big Government Loves Power

A lot of shifty things happen in the cover of darkness as was demonstrated last night when Obamalosicare barely passed even in the face of strong opposition from the American public.

I won’t dwell on the lone RINO who crossed over to the other side to vote in favor of government takeover.  He was bought and paid for as were many others in this tragedy.  Malkin has a great write-up on RINO Rep. Joseph Cao HERE.

What is truly disheartening is that most Americans have no idea what our government is even doing.  While anybody reading this post was probably glued to CSPAN for most of the day yesterday many probably think that Stupak is a destination, Blue-Dogs are a high school football team and that Pelosi has a soul.

Now we get ready for the Senate and I have no doubt they will push it through with the 51 votes.  People, we have the government we vote for.  And while you and I are at an advantage by even knowing the government is stealing our freedom the fact remains that our neighbors are doing nothing about it.

Get out the word, make the phone calls, attend the tea parties and let your voice be heard.  Government only has as much power as the people are allowing them to have.

@Eggoverlight on Twitter said it best:  The message is clear from the highest levels. If you are productive you will be penalized. Encourage mediocracy. Reward selfishness.

Until Americans take the power back all I can ask is:  Who is John Galt?

Obama: Muslim in Chief

There has been a lot of talk about the insensitivity that President Obama showed after the Fort Hood as discussed HERE.

Perhaps the reason for this is because Barack HUSSEIN Obama is a Muslim himself.  Why would you show American military men and women respect when you do not respect them to begin with?

I would like to take this opportunity to give a sarcastic thank you to everybody who fell for Obama’s rhetoric in 2008.  Who would have thought that after 9/11 half this country would support the enemy because he speaks well.

Beware of the beast with the golden tongue.

Jihad in America: Major Malik Nadal Hasan

After 9/11 there were many people across this great country who woke up to the threat that Islamic extremism truly is.  Unfortunately there were too many who just fell back asleep.

For many years those of us on the right have been warning about the continued infiltration of terrorists into American life.  One of the ways in which they have done this is to put people inside the US Military. 

Today Major Malik Nadal Hasan, a life-long Muslim killed and injured countless soldier at the Fort Hood military base in Texas.  There have been some reports also of his connections to known terrorists. 

Something tells me that President Barack HUSSEIN Obama won’t do much except pay lip service to this tragedy while Al-Qaeda continues to wage war against a country that fights with apologies.

Update: Here is the picture of the Jihadist with his “Yes We Can” smile….

Update 2: Now that Fort Hood shooter Nidal Malik Hasan is alive do you think Obama will invite him to the White House for a beer with his victims?

Victicrat: Damn It Feels Good

After battling with a possible case of H1N1, catching up on Masters work and teaching full time I haven’t had the time to put into Broadside recently that I would like.  Have no fear though, it will be back to full force soon.

In the meantime enjoy my new favorite music video featuring a brilliant cameo by James O’Keefe of undercover ACORN fame:)

Swine Flu and You: National Emergency

This week our dear leader declared a national state of emergency in lieu of the H1N1 outbreak. 

One can only imagine some of the new “powers” that will be granted to health secretary Kathleen “swollen eye” Sebelius.

Apparently leaving the boarders open, hoping it will go away and washing hands of all responsibilty were not working. 

And let’s not forget that while the White House is telling everyone the importance of vaccination it looks like the One’s daughters do not need it.  Hypocrisy you can believe in!

Olympics: Hitler 1 – Obama 0

I think everyone is looking at Obama losing the Olympics as a bad thing but upon further reflection I believe Obama tanked the event in order to once and for all prove to Americans that he is a not a socialist dictator.

Now that my sarcasm is off and it comes as no surprise that once again it’s not Obama’s fault.  Clearly it’s those racist, bigoted jerks who voted out of spite against Chicago and more importantly the Obamessiah.  Nothing is ever his fault, it’s everyone elses.  I have a few Kindergarten students who feel this way as well but they don’t have an entire media propaganda arm behind them to spin the story in their favor.  Thank you New York Slimes!

Chicago Olympics: No, You Can’t!

Well, it looks like Americans aren’t the only ones wising up to the Chicago style shenanigans of Obama and his cronies.  Everybody sing together: NO, YOU CAN’T!

Drudge put up the best headline today when Chicago was not only beat but raped in the first round.  Now I don’t mean “rape-rape” but rather Roman Polanski on drugged up 13 year old girl screaming no.

How I would have loved to see the faces on everyone from the Obama’s to Oprah.  This is further evidence that everybody who says no to Obama is a racist. 

Listen to CNN anchor Tony Harris react to the news that Chicago has been eliminated.  How in the world can anybody reject his lord and savior Mmmm, Mmmm, Mmmm –  Barack Hussein Obama.

Roman Polanski: HE RAPED A CHILD!

Sometimes I find it best to not alter a picture but just state the facts.  In this case the fact is that ROMAN POLANSKI RAPED A CHILD!

There is a petition going around signed by 100+ filmmakers, actors and industry types protesting the arrest of Roman Polanski.  The same Roman Polanski that RAPED A CHILD!

We aren’t just talking no name celebs, we are talking John Landis, Martin Scorcese, Terry Gilliam, Darren Aronosfky and get ready to chuckle……. Woody Allen.  Yes, each of these “people” signed a petition to free Romand Polanski.  The same Romand Polanski that RAPED A CHILD!

I have to give credit to Jewel who posted on Twitter: “Polanski-admitted raping a 13 yr old-whys every1 in the arts upset hes facing jail? cause hes a gifted director? what am i missing?”

Why indeed!  As if we needed further evidence to show the morally bankrupt culture of modern day Hollywood they gives us even more. 

The moral of the story is that child rape is ok as long as you do “good works”.  Hmmm, sounds like ACORN.  Now I get it.  Ewwww.

And before I leave you and in case you forgot…. ROMAN POLANSKI RAPED A CHILD!
