Andrew Breitbart takes on the elitist media, specifically the three female “feminists” who have been on the trash Sarah bandwagon from the beginning, and he does it with gusto:

What a shock that Maureen Dowd devoted her New York Times column Sunday to attack Sarah Palin. It did not so much criticize Alaska’s governor for prematurely stepping down from her official duties as to finish off what sister snipers Katie Couric and Tina Fey began last fall.

The assassination of Sarah Palin – by media.

For those who didn’t pay attention, Mrs. Palin’s unexpected stratospheric rise as a national political figure threatened the media’s preordained presidency of Barack Obama.

In light of how the Obama machine took down Hillary Clinton, which unsettled many feminists who believed 2008 was their time, many who saw sexism at play – the destruction of an ascendant Republican female icon was an urgent imperative for the Democratic Party.

~~~

Misses Dowd, Couric and Fey – Mr. Obama’s Angels (featuring Joy Behar in the role of “Bosley”) – used a potent mix of mockery, snobbery and vitriol to undermine Mrs. Palin’s feminist bona fides.

They are what my wife calls “pad throwers,” an allusion to the shower room scene in the Stephen King film “Carrie,” in which the popular girls throw sanitary napkins and tampons at the film’s namesake.

Simply put, they are bullies. And female bullies – “Mean Girls” as Miss Fey’s film calls them – are the cruelest kind.

Primarily motivated by a desire to keep abortion “safe, legal and rare,” female liberals in the media have carte blanche to do and say anything. Read the rest of this entry »

To add to Aye’s post here is the video of Letterman’s “apology”

Yeah, he actually meant to “joke” about the 18 year old Bristol having sex with a baseball player rather then 14 year old Willow bring raped (statutory). Makes sense right? Seeing as how Bristol was NOT at the game he referenced but Willow was.

Give me a break.

His exact words:

One awkward moment for Sarah Palin at the Yankee game, during the seventh inning, her daughter was knocked up by Alex Rodriguez.

Nope, no confusing that one no matter how much he lies in an attempt to squirm out of this pickle. Read the rest of this entry »

Gov. Sarah Palin recently visited Auburn, New York, to help celebrate the 50th anniversary of Alaska statehood. That city’s Founders Day event honored William Seward who played an important role in the purchase of Alaska while he served as secretary of state.

During her visit she visited different historical and not so historical sites and met the residents of Auburn: (h/t to Conservative 4 Palin)

Bistro One got a very last-minute reservation request Thursday. But this was one they wanted to make room for.

Former vice-presidential candidate and Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin participated in a breakfast event Friday morning at the Auburn restaurant. The event, which was attended by area supporters, kicked off a day of activities for the Republican governor at various local businesses, parks and organizations.

Her tour of the area precedes today’s first-ever Founders Day, which celebrates local history. During the Auburn festival, Palin will take part in a parade, speak at the city hall and attend a fundraiser luncheon at the Seward House.

~~~

One of about 40 in attendance at the breakfast was state Assemblyman Gary Finch. Finch said Palin gave a nonpolitical talk, and she expressed gratitude to the local community for inviting her.

Finch said that Palin, who brought her husband, Todd, daughter, Willow, her sister and nephew along, made sure to speak individually with each person at the event.

“She certainly conveyed to everyone that she is very glad to be here,” said Finch, who will also participate in Saturday’s festivities.

“She was very real, very genuine,” Finch said.

She also visited the Harriet Tubman Home: Read the rest of this entry »

This is going to definitely be on my viewing list every week:

On Wednesday at 9 p.m., “The Goode Family” will have its premiere on ABC and become the first animated series on the network’s prime-time lineup since 1995

~~~

“Goode” lampoons a liberal Midwestern household. In “Goode,” the characters are often mocked for being green just to fit in with their friends and neighbors. They are a perfect target for the 46-year-old Mr. Judge and his two longtime co-writers, John Altschuler and Dave Krinsky, who have made careers out of finding humor in the follies and pretensions of everyday people. . . .

“The Goode Family” came from an idea that Mr. Altschuler had while on vacation. Mr. Altschuler’s wife observed how difficult it was to “be good”—i.e., environmentally responsible. That became the central premise for the Goode Family. Mr. Judge, who says he was inspired by the mellow tones of National Public Radio hosts, provides the voice of the bicycle-riding college administrator Mr. Goode.

First, check out this video: (h/t Hot Air)

Good video.

Now, remember these words spoken by Obama at Notre Dame?

So let us work together to reduce the number of women seeking abortions

Nice and sweet eh? You would think this statement means that they want to REDUCE the number of abortions.

But if you thought that you would be wrong. Wendy Wright, President of Concerned Women for America, met with Obama aides at the White House a few days before the speech with dozens of others who had different views of abortion. Read the rest of this entry »

Liberals are giddy over revealing photos of Miss California, Carrie Prejean (good Lord! She’s still in the news cycle?!), surfacing on the ‘net, with the first of six released, thus far:

With partially nude photos of her popping up on Web sites questioning her Christian credentials, Miss California USA Carrie Prejean has fired back, claiming the racy pictures are just modeling shots and vowing to continue her battle against same-sex marriage.

“I am a Christian, and I am a model,” Prejean said in a statement released overnight to the media. “Models pose for pictures, including lingerie and swimwear photos. Recently, photos taken of me as a teenager have been released surreptitiously to a tabloid Web site that openly mocks me for my Christian faith. I am not perfect, and I will never claim to be.”

~~~

The Web site thedirty.com… claimed that it had six pictures of Prejean. As of Tuesday morning, it had posted one on its site. The picture shows Prejean wearing nothing but a pair of revealing pink panties and smiling over her shoulder at the camera. Her breasts are covered by her arm.

The picture was deemed too racy to be shown on the TODAY Show.

Too “racy” for the TODAY Show? Give me a break! A year ago, the Today Show had no issue with showing a “racy” photo of influential teen star, Miley Cyrus. Make no mistake: They’re only feigning the photo is too risque for their viewing audience, because they share an agenda with like-minded liberals, out to nail another conservative to a cross.

They’re dragging Prejean through the mud for saying the following:

“I think it’s great that Americans are able to choose one or the other. We live in a land where you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite marriage; and you know what? I think in my country, in my family, I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offense to anybody out there, but that’s how I was raised.”

Oh, how outrageous that was! That she expressed a personal opinion! That she exercised the freedom of speech liberal “progressives” so love to champion. Oh, wait…I see the problem: She expressed a conservative opinion and viewpoint. Hence, the indignation and attempt to ridicule and slime her.

Meanwhile, we have a PotUS who also claims to read the Bible and who has stated a similar view. To the Chicago Tribune:

“I’m a Christian. And so, although I try not to have my religious beliefs dominate or determine my political views on this issue, I do believe that tradition, and my religious beliefs say that marriage is something sanctified between a man and a woman.”

Where is the lefty outrage? Oh, I get it: Prejean was contesting for the highly exalted Miss USA distinction. Obama, on the other hand, campaigned to be elected to the lowly office of President of the United States of America. It all makes sense to me, now. He doesn’t really mean it.

Maybe liberals are giving now-President Obama a free pass on his hate-filled, anti-gay, hurtful and insensitive comments because they believe that in his heart, he does sympathize with the plight of gay marriage; that he is merely expressing what is politically necessary and expedient for him to say. Supporting the traditional definition of marriage is the position and belief of the mainstream majority in America.

Of course, if this is the case, then it makes President Obama a weak, moral coward for not standing up for core beliefs and principles; and Prejean a hero for standing up and defending her beliefs amidst a hailstorm of criticism from the liberal elites in the media. Obama saying anything to win the presidency; Prejean saying what she believes, even if it costs her the crown.

And if you truly think it scandalous that Prejean posed for “racy” photos prior to running for Miss USA. May I remind you of the “racy” photos of Obama before he ran for president. These were leaked to us at Flopping Aces, through a simple Google search, and are highly graphic and tastelessly tabloidian.

Flopping Aces had serious reservations over whether or not to republish these well-known topless Obama photos, as they are deemed inappropriate for our younger readers; and deemed “extremely racy” even by FA standards. But after careful deliberation through long hours into the night and much hand-wringing, we feel it important enough that these be published in a responsible manner and not merely to drive-up our readership and FA merchandise sales. Our objective isn’t sensationalism and agenda-driven right-wing propaganda; but an honest desire to expose mainstream media hypocrisy and liberal elitism (Warning!: Graphic photos- may be inappropriate for all ages):

While Skye, Scott and Word are doing a great job on blogging about the Spector CYA move I figured I would move onto a story not widely reported due to all the other news. That story would be Hillary Clinton comparing Margaret Sanger to Thomas Jefferson. No, not a apple to apple type comparison, but more of a I respect Sanger the same as I respect Jefferson….they both had flaws.

First…some background.

On March 27th of this year Hillary Clinton accepted a Planned Parenthood award called the Margaret Sanger Award. So named because Sanger is the founder of the group, originally called the American Birth Control League. She had this to say about it’s founder:

Now, I have to tell you that it was a great privilege when I was told that I would receive this award. I admire Margaret Sanger enormously, her courage, her tenacity, her vision … And when I think about what she did all those years ago in Brooklyn, taking on archetypes, taking on attitudes and accusations flowing from all directions, I am really in awe of her.

Now….for those who know Sanger’s history, the statement above should shock you. As it did to Nebraska congressman Jeff Fortenberry who said the following during a House Foreign Affairs Committee hearing on April 22nd: Read the rest of this entry »

25 Years of Virgin Airlines:

Wow – Can’t touch that!

Ironically, the Advertising Standards Agency (ASA) received 29 complaints of sexism regarding this advertisement.Upon review, the agency rejected these whiny complaints, rightly so.

It is disturbing that a tongue in cheek anniversary video would rise the ire of feminists. Particularly in light of the recent reports of a pregnant gang rape victim in Saudi Arabia being sentenced to 100 lashes. The widespread silence from these same misogynists (yes, I’m talking to you, Camille Paglia) who complained about the Virgin Atlantic video is deafening.

Once again the GOP is licking it’s wounds from another election loss. Recovering from this loss has been the focus of conservative politicians and pundits. But what many pundits do not realize is that there is another battle raging in the country that the GOP has been losing for decades. The battle has been over the culture of America. And if you think the two battles are not linked, think again.

Conservativism and the Religious Right has been effectively demonized in the popular culture while liberalism has effectively been mainstreamed into our TV sets and newspapers. And politics is nothing but perception. The real battle is not in the polls but in the courts, schools, media, and popular culture. And the Republican party has surrendered too many of these battlefields to the enemy. This does nothing but help us to lose elections.

The Problem: Politics vs. Perception

To the surprise of many conservative Catholics, twice of many Catholics voted for obama then McCain, despite Obama’s very pro-abortion record. This trend, if it continues, could spell death for the Conservative movement. And why is this the case? Well, the image of conservatives have defectively suffered. It’s leadership has lacked the ability to define itself, and thus allowed the liberals to do it for them in a negative light and thus claim the moral high ground, This is relatively the same as having Saddam Hussein sit in the Human Rights commission. (which is not too far off from others that have been in that seat) So what is a good conservative to do? Read the rest of this entry »

Back in June:

President Bush has nominated Lt. Gen. Ann E. Dunwoody to take over the Army’s Materiel Command as a four-star general, and if confirmed by the Senate she would be the first woman in U.S. history to receive such a high military rank.

In announcing the nomination yesterday, Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates praised Dunwoody’s “extraordinary leadership and devotion to duty” and called the choice “an historic occasion.” There are 57 active-duty female general officers in the U.S. armed forces, five of whom are three-star generals. About 5 percent of the Army’s general officers are women.

General Dunwoody achieved that promotion on Friday.

Amazing. He had a chance for party unity by picking Hillary Clinton as his nominee, and he didn’t; ie, unity is not first and foremost in his agenda. He says he’s about equal rights for women, then he pays the women who work for him in the senate and on his campaign less than he pays the men.

Now, Governor Sarah Palin is calling him on it.

“Out on the stump he talks a good game about equal pay for equal work, but according to the Senate pay roll records women on his own staff get just 83 cents for every dollar that the men get,” Palin said of Obama. “That’s 9,000 dollars less every year that he pays the guys. Does he think that the women aren’t working as hard? Does he think that they are 17 percent less productive?”
