PHONEY. Fake. Insincere. Hypocrite. -- The Anti-Obama T-Shirt of the Day.

Here is the second Anti-Obama T-Shirt of the Day as promised. PHONY. Fake. Insincere. Hypocrite. Obama 08.

The Kentucky Brochure and the suspect timing of the John Edwards Announcement only add fuel to the fire that many of us have been feeling about Obama for a long time. This "hope" and promise of "change" and a "new candidacy" is all a fraud, just like everything else related to Obama. America deserves better, and he's not it.

Flags over Faith?

Barack Obama's stance against wearing an American Flag lapel pin is pretty well known. It's not that he doesn't support America he says, but he doesn't want to use the flag for political gain or as a substitute for patriotism or the war. Symbols don't equate to actions, or so his theory goes, and it seems the flag means more than just wearing it on your lapel to make a statement.

So while he won't use the American Flag to advance his political career, he doesn't mind using the Cross, a symbol of Jesus and the Crucification to Christians. And that appalls me.


So basically, its ok to use Christ for political gain, but not the American flag? To all those people who gave Huckabee flack for the political ad with the supposed subliminal cross in the background... where are you now on this?

To me its pretty simple. Its ok to use the cross for political gain but not the flag if you are Barack Obama. Thus the cross is less important (or sacred) to Barack Obama than the flag, and we all know how little he likely feels about the flag (based on his wife's and pastor's comments). Just another example of political opportunism, hypocrisy and lies from Candidate Obama. So much for change.

Tornadoes Caused By Global Warming....

at least according to John Kerry. Nothing like using tragedy to promote your own agenda. Who needs facts when when you have unproven theory and scare-mongering fears of global annihilation.

Relatively, we haven't been recording weather events for all that long in our history. However, it would seem that devastating tornadoes have been around longer than automobiles, airplanes, aerosol cans, and 2-ply toilet paper have been threats to our environment.

• On May 7, 1840, a tornado in Mississippi killed 317 people.
• On February 19, 1884, over 60 tornadoes swept the South East killing at least 170 people.
• On May 27, 1896, 305 people were killed, over 1000 injured, and over $10 million in property damage was caused by a tornado in the St. Louis area.
• On March 23, 1913, tornadoes struck the east, north east, and west Iowa. The death toll in Omaha, Nebraska alone was 94 with 350 injured and over 600 homes lost.
• On March 18, 1925, the "Tri-State Tornado" killed 747 people from Missouri and Tennessee to Indiana.

So unless these were all caused by Cow Flatulence, global warming is not the cause of devastating tornadoes. There have been many other horrible tornadoes besides the ones listed up through today. It happens, and its not a pleasant experience, but to use the death and destruction caused by a naturally occurring weather phenomenon to prop up your own agenda is dishonest and despicable.

See the quote at the end of the article:

Kerry’s assertion tornado activity is related to any type of climate change is questionable based on the writings of at least one meteorologist. Roger Edwards, a meteorologist at the Storm Prediction Center of the National Weather Center in Norman, Okla., has doubts about any global warming and tornado relationship.

“As of this writing, no scientific studies solidly relate climatic global temperature trends to tornadoes,” Edwards wrote on the Earth & Sky Web site in April 2007. “I don’t expect any such results in the near future either, because tornadoes are too small, short–lived, hard to measure and count, and too dependent on day to day, even minute to minute weather conditions.”

John, here's an idea... keep your mouth shut and stop trying to be relevant. You're not. Its over. Time to Move On.

Oh, and I suppose the "Global Cooling" that we were supposedly threatened by in the 70s was responsible for the 1974 Super Outbreak of 148 tornadoes in 13 states that killed 315 people and caused over $600 million in damage.

I'm sorry that more than 50 people were killed and countless more lives were forever changed in the tornadoes on Tuesday. Any loss of life due is a sad and tragic event. But let's not stand on the shattered houses and the memories of those who were lost in order to advance an agenda that at the best is factually unproven and more likely completely false.
