By William Teach April 8, 2012 – 11:08 am

As always, the full set of pinups can be seen in the Patriotic Pinup category, or over at my Gallery page. While we are on pinups, since it is that time of year, have you gotten your “Pinups for Vets” calendar yet? And don’t forget to check out what I declare to be our War on Women Rule 5 and linky luv posts

Anyone else have a link or hotty-fest going on? Let me know so I can add you to the list. (BTW, since someone asked, the reason I leave links for the previous week up (or you might see a *) is because they are place holders for later in the day or for next weeks. Easier than rewriting all the time. Also, the listing order has to do with how they are added over time, not how good a post is. I just copy and paste from the previous week, then edit. If you see one of the *’s, go ahead and check out the blog anyhow, see if there is an update. I cannot update with my Android during the day.

The posts do take a long time, so, if you want to send me your links for Rule 5 babeage or links, use ye olde email in the header bar (remove the NOSPAM part). Preferably, create the html link so I can copy and paste how you want it to read.

Mo Dowd: “Know Who Would Want Augusta National To Include Women? Jesus”

By William Teach April 8, 2012 – 9:22 am

I’m not so sure Jesus would approve of Democrats patronizing women as a voter block which needs to be told what to do. He probably wouldn’t appreciate the Nazi reference, either: What Would Jesus Do at the Masters?

THERE was a boys’ club, of course, a band of ardent, jockeying disciples. But as his fame grew, the messiah was also surrounded by women and talked about women with great respect. With his father far away, the golden boy was most influenced by his strong mother and the women in his inner circle.

I’m talking about the real messiah, not Barack Obama, although it applies to both.

So, let’s see, Mo starts off by insulting belief in Jesus by first sarcastically calling him a “golden boy” and, then comparing Obama to Jesus.

Even as Scott Walker, Wisconsin’s Republican governor, signed legislation repealing a law that helped women by making wage discrimination easier to fight, President Obama accessorized with women, trying to widen his 18-point gender gap in swing states.

Hmm, maybe Mo saw through Obama’s weak attempt to use women as campaign props. She then goes on to throw a few more snarky remarks Obama’s way, then discusses how Saudi Arabia is squashing women’s rights, and how the International Olympics Committee should ban Saudi Arabia due to discrimination, which is in their charter to do, then we get

It could be part of the continuing penance to be paid for legitimizing Hitler by granting him — and Leni Riefenstahl — the 1936 Games.

Augusta National Golf Club, which has kept its men-only policy long after giving up its black-caddies-only rule, should stop emulating the Saudis and award a green jacket and club membership to Virginia Rometty, the new chief of I.B.M., a Masters sponsor. You know you’re in trouble when Rick Santorum is urging you to be more progressive on women.

There we go: Augusta National is kinda like the Nazis. I thought that the Left proclaimed that Nazi references were now verboten?

Finally, in the perverse pantheon of reactionary men in robes, we have God’s Rottweiler, as Pope Benedict is known. He welcomed Easter by sitting on a golden throne and denouncing the “disobedience” of Catholic priests who want the decaying, ingrown institution that sheltered so many abusive priests to let in some fresh air and allow female and married priests, as well as Holy Communion for Catholics who have remarried without an annulment.

So, now she insults Catholics and the Pope.

The message of Jesus, after all, is not about exclusion, but inclusion.

No, the message of Jesus is one of love, and, there’s that pesky thing about him dying for Man’s sins. The message of Jesus is

Now after John was arrested, Jesus came to Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God, and saying, ‘The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God has come near; repent, and believe in the good news’” (Mark 1:14-15).

The message is to repent, and get yourself right with God. But, like so many others, Mo uses Jesus to push her political agenda, which seems to usually be rather hostile to the Christian religion. Jesus might quote the 10 Commandments, and say, why are you killing the unborn? He might say “why are you burdening your descendents with obscene amounts of debt?” He might also wonder about “coveting thy neighbor’s house” (Exodus 20) and stealing from others, ie, forced income redistribution.

He also might wonder why the NY Times leadership is so white. Same with MSNBC and most liberal news organizations.

As for Augusta National, well, it might actually be time to open the membership up to women. But, that’s their decision. What’s wrong with a men only club? Personally, I’d find it boring without women around, but, to each his own. If women want to have their own clubs that are women only, hey, fine. Whatever. But, this whole article is supposed to be about the mythical Republican war on women. And Jesus might have a problem with bearing false witness against thy neighbor.

Happy Easter!

By William Teach April 8, 2012 – 8:54 am

If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. (Romans 10: 9-10)

Obama Campaign Stiffs Vermont Police Department

By William Teach April 7, 2012 – 2:08 pm

Alternate title: rich guy who raises lots of money off $35,800 a plate dinners is too cheap to pay his fair share

(Fox News) Trevor Whipple, the police chief in South Burlington (Vermont), told Fox News that his department incurred $4,200 in overtime expenses as a result of separate fundraising events featuring President Obama and the First Lady.

“At the end of the day, I’ve submitted an invoice and they haven’t paid,” Whipple told Fox News. “It was an additional burden on our taxpayers, on our budget and we simply wanted to ask that they reimburse us.”

May not seem much to Obama, but that is needed money for this small Vermont town. And, apparently, Team Obama is stuffing Burlington, Vt, as well.

For a guy who whines about everyone paying their fair share, PBO sure is a miser, eh?

“The president is the president wherever he goes and whatever he does,” Vermont Democratic Party Chairman Jake Perkinson told Fox News. “I don’t think there’s any credible reason to be nickel and diming the security of the President of the United States or his family.”

So they why not stop nickel and diming the towns? Dems always want Someone Else to pay, never themselves.

Hansen Takes Unnecessary Fossil Fueled Trip To Decry Fossil Fuels

By William Teach April 7, 2012 – 11:31 am

See, it’s cool if you are a Believer to use fossil fuels to say they’re evil and killing Gaia, because they are a Believer. You, on the other hand, dear reader, you don’t believe, so, you must be forced to drive a Chevy Volt

(UK Guardian) Averting the worst consequences of human-induced climate change is a “great moral issue” on a par with slavery, according to the leading Nasa climate scientist Prof Jim Hansen.

He argues that storing up expensive and destructive consequences for society in future is an “injustice of one generation to others”.

Hansen, who will next Tuesday be awarded the prestigious Edinburgh Medal for his contribution to science, will also in his acceptance speech call for a worldwide tax on all carbon emissions.

In his lecture, Hansen will argue that the challenge facing future generations from climate change is so urgent that a flat-rate global tax is needed to force immediate cuts in fossil fuel use…..

Exactly how did he get to England? Swim?

Then there’s the whole “slavery” thing, but, climahysterics are going to be always try and out-do each other with more and more dire predictions.

The article spends a lot of time describing how Hansen thinks people who use fossil fuels should be taxed, the price of fossil fuels should be dramatically raised, and the money redistributed to those who drive weenie mobiles, because fossil fuels are evil, except when they are used to get Hansen to England. And, as Tom Nelson points out

Under the global carbon tax proposal, the mechanisms for controlling fossil fuel use would be taken out of the hands of individual states influenced by energy companies, and politicians anxious about winning elections.

And whose hands, exactly, will the mechanisms be put in? If you’re taking it out of politician’s hands, aren’t you taking it out of the hands of the voting public? Sounds like fascism, eh? Or maybe straight to totalitarianism.

Bummer: Hotcoldwetdry Could Give You Rabies

By William Teach April 7, 2012 – 7:37 am

All because you decided to use your ice maker and dish washer

(Grist) If rabid environmental activists don’t get their way, the rest of us might end up rabid too. This year’s drought is leading to a huge jump in rabies rates in stricken states, and climate change will only make it worse.

The heat wave and drought in the southern states, which NASA’s James Hansen says is conclusively caused by climate change, is driving rabies-prone animals closer to human habitation:

While the number of reported rabid animals declined nationwide in 2010, according to the most recent federal data,states such as South Dakota, Kansas and Texas have recently seen a jump in the number of skunks testing positive. In drought-stricken Texas, more than 1,000 animals last year were exposed to rabid skunks, double the number in 2010. “More skunks seem to have migrated to suburban areas where there is water,” said Ernest Oertli, a veterinarian with the Texas Department of State Health Services.

It couldn’t possibly have anything to do with Mankind’s encroachment on the areas where the animals live, could it? Or moving the water from nature areas to suburban areas? Na, that would be silly. It has got to be your fault, for using energy. Just turn all your lights off, save Gaia.

And, it couldn’t possibly be natural, because the climate of the Earth has historically stayed exactly the same in the 4.5 billion years before 1980. There were no droughts, and the temperature was always the same.

Obama Starts Off Women’s Forum By Patronizing Them

By William Teach April 7, 2012 – 7:00 am

Here’s your Smartest President Evah!!!!1!!!

(Washington Times) President Obama’s conference on women got off to an awkward start Friday when Mr. Obama seemed to play on some throwback stereotypes about women lacking professional decorum in his opening remarks.

“I was going to head over here earlier, and they said, no, no, this place is full of women and they’re still settling down,” Mr. Obama told the room. “I said, what do you mean settling down? What are they doing over there? Just creating havoc.”

He receives a bit of awkward laughter, then, get a load of the reactions by the women standing behind them. The African American lady off to the right of the screen seems to closer her eyelids and sigh.

“It makes me feel right at home, although usually, I’ve got my wingman Bo with me,” he said, referring to the Obama family dog.

The Bo-as-wingman remark elicited only tepid laughter from the women in the room, who may have still been wondering exactly what the president meant by his strange opening lines.

So, he brought his dog to the conference? Oh, and Joe Biden. Both tend to make messes.

Crossed at Right Wing News and Stop The ACLU.

Dem Calls Other Dem A “Whore” For Supporting Israel

By William Teach April 6, 2012 – 2:12 pm

I’m wondering if liberals and elected Democrats will call for a boycott of this uncivil language. And, by uncivil, I mean the whore word, since a good chunk if liberals hate Israel

(The Hill) Rep. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) was called a “whore” by a primary opponent during Thursday night’s debate for Connecticut’s open Senate seat.

Lee Whitnum, who is mounting her second bid for the Senate in Connecticut, blasted Murphy over his support for Israel, the New Haven Register reported.

“I’m dealing with a whore here who sells his soul to AIPAC, who will say anything for the job,” Whitnum said, referring to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee.

Whitnum said anti-American sentiment worldwide could be cured if the federal government were to prosecute U.S. settlers who “go to Israel and maim or kill in the Promised Land.” She also called for the elimination of U.S. aid to Israel.

Hey, Whitnum is just say what most Lefties think.
