Part of me really wants Martha Coakley to win Tuesday in Massaschusetts just to expose — yet again — the complete intellectual vacuity of the Democrat Party. This woman is a total dunce. How she functions as Massachusetts Attorney General is way beyond my pay grade. Check out this audio recording of Coakley insisting that legendary Boston Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling is a Yankee fan. Oh, and ObamaCare will be good for Amerika! As if. Too funny!
Scott Brown should invite Barack Obama to Boston to campaign for Brown’s rival, Martha “Hammer” Coakley. Why? As a general rule — at least since Obama’s inauguration in January 2009 — when the big “O” touches down with Air Force One and/or his presidential entourage, his cause or candidate loses.
Obama’s Chicago Olympics sales job was stuffed (apologies to my Aussie friends) in Copenhagen, last October. A month later, Obama campaigned in person and revved up his campaign operation, Organising for Amerika, in Virginia (for Creigh Deeds) and New Jersey (for Jon Corzine). Both candidates lost convincingly.
One month after that, in December, Obama jetted off to Copenhagen where the much hyped climate change conclave disintegrated without an agreement despite (because of?) Obama’s involvement. If I’m Scott Brown, I’m thinking, “Why not fund an Obama-Coakley event?” Maybe in Copenhagen?
With Republican Scott Brown surging in the race for Massachusetts’ open U.S. Senate seat, TWS reports Democrat candidate Martha Coakley — apparently incapable of winning the seat through civil discourse — has called out her brown shirts to intimidate and physically attack reporters who dare ask her direct questions.
After a Washington, D.C. fundraising event last night, John McCormack reports he was assaulted and shoved against a metal railing, while Coakley looked on, by an individual who has since been tentatively identified by a tipster as Democrat Senate Campaign Committee operative Michael Meehan, pictured above. Ironically, Meehan was reportedly hired to help Coakley camp with “messaging”. Get the message?
More of the action can be seen in this YouTube video. Massachusetts voters might ask themselves whether Coakley, who apparently sees no need to issue an apology for such Stalinist brutality, could possibly represent them in the United States Senate better than down-to-Earth, personable Scott Brown who appears along with Doug Flutie in the video below.
If the Berlin Wall could come crashing down (it did), isn’t it also possible that Massachusetts voters could replace Ted Kennedy with a clear-thinking, no-nonsense Republican? I think so. Watch this video to learn why Scott Brown can win one week from today with a little help from Americans who, like Scott, believe in free enterprise, limited government and accountability.

Finally, a bit of climate candor from a top global warming alarmist. Pressed to rationalize the U.K. Met Office’s woeful failure to predict 2010’s cold January, John Hirst admits not even the Met Office — which he nevertheless insists is the best weather predicting organization in the world — can say what will happen to weather over the long-haul:
Thank you, Mr. Hirst. Now if we can just get Al Gore to answer a few questions…
Like George H.W. Bush who once fatefully declared, “No new taxes,” Barack Obama promised repeatedly during his 2008 campaign to conduct health care reform negotiations in the open and to broadcast them on C-SPAN. “These negotiations will be on C-SPAN … so the public will be part of the conversation.” Those were his words in ‘08, eight times over:
Now, with congressional Dems planning closed-door meetings to hammer out a back-room House-Senate compromise and C-SPAN daring them to come out of the closet, Mr. Obama has the perfect opportunity to show America what he’s made of. My gut — and the evasive, nasty response by Obama’s own spokesman today — suggest he’ll do just that.
Will he, against all odds, deliver on even the most basic of his campaign promises? Is he capable, after telling so many fibs to so many people, of keeping his word on an issue of such visceral importance to the entire country? To paraphrase the Sundance Kid, “I’d bet no, but who’d bet yes?”
Record cold and snow across the globe from Des Moines to Boston and from Cuzco to Seoul and Beijing, has global warmists alarmed about cooling. Scrambling to reconcile cold reality with an increasingly unbelievable warming narrative, they flatly lie or concoct illogical contortions that can be downright hilarious. Guardian reporter Annie Kelly offers a case in point. Yesterday, Kelly posted a bona fide laugher in the land of Climategate, claiming that “climate change” and “melting glaciers” are killing children and alpacas in the Peruvian highlands not with heat, mind you, but cold.
Hope, they say, springs eternal. When they voted for Obama last November, Obama supporters apparently confused “the man from Hope” with the author of “The Audacity of Hope,” emphasis on “audacity.” When it comes to communication and leadership ability, the two are light years apart. Evidence Drew Weston’s plaintive lament, “Obama Team Fumbling Key Messages“. Weston — like many erstwhile Obama supporters — clearly understands that Obama’s team has been ineffective but tragically clings to the illusion that Obama himself is somehow capable of fixing the problem: [click to continue…]
The foolishness of the 2,074-page Reid-Obama health care catastrophe is surpassed only by the recklessness of the Senate voting on portions of the bill at 1:00 o’clock in the morning. If a bank’s board of directors were to behave with such insolent irresponsibility, Mr. Obama, the Fed and the FDIC would be in their faces screaming obscenities.These people — these so-called legislators — are just disgusting.
Copenhagen seems an unending source of Orwellian Climategate hijinks. Lacking a legitimate response to probing questions about Climategate’s trove of fishy emails, Stanford University Professor Stephen Schneider calls in UN Security thugs to silence the Irish journalist who knows too much and, unlike Schneider, wants to know more:
Obviously, Professor Schneider has something to hide. We wonder whether this sort of unscientific behavior comports with the good professor’s University code of conduct. Meanwhile, 1,700 British “scientists” have signed a British Met Office statement of faith (“utmost confidence,” in climate science jargon) in global warming.
