Occupy Wall Street eviction – Protester talking about throwing Molotov Cocktails at Macy’s. Obama has expressed sympathy for this “movement” and his pal Ayers was probably doing the same stuff 40 years or so ago. The Tea Parties which the Dems and the media disparaged wanted to change the system peacefully from within. The “occupy” people that they endorse want to burn it to the ground. ‘Nuff said.

Chris Tingles on why the GOP frontrunner hasn’t emerged yet: They’re hateful haters full of hating hate or something. Alternative explanation for non-stupid people: the election is still a year away. The Democrooks had not yet felt Obama trickling down their legs at a comparable point in the last election cycle. More hate, Chris? Theory: Tingles says stupid crap like this because more folks catch his sappy act on internet videos than on the cul-de-sac network. He needs to be noticed much more than he needs to seem sensible.

Oakland mayor admits cities coordinated crackdown on Occupy movement. Blue city mayors decide “misery loves company”? And this: “Might it also be more than a coincidence that this succession of police raids started after President Obama left the US for an extended tour of the Pacific Rim?” Uh, yeah. Obama tried to capitalize on leftist street theatre that became a nightmare of violence, disease and feces. Leaving town lets him avoid embarrassing questions.

A NY judge has upheld the city’s dismantling of the Occupy Wall Street encampment, saying that the protesters’ first amendment rights don’t entitle them to camp out indefinitely in the plaza. “The judge upheld the city’s effective eviction of the protesters after an emergency appeal by the National Lawyers Guild.” Zuccotti Park, where OWS has been squatting (literally and figuratively) is privately owned. If it were ours, we’d quickly put a bunch of foot-long steel spikes in the ground to make sure OWS gets the point about not squatting there.

Unconsicously ironic remark of the day: Obama calls for national “soul searching” in wake of Penn State abuse scandal. President Nothing-Is-My-Fault hectors millions of people who had nothing to do with any of it to examine their role in the tragedy. And how about what Obama’s “safe schools czar” once said to a 15-yr old gay boy who met an older man in a bathroom (“I hope you knew to use a condom.”) We’d respond that Obama should go for some “soul searching” too but we’re sure it would be a total waste of precious golf time.

Rabble roused: NYPD arrests 200 protesters, clears OWS out of Zuccotti Park. But, there’s a fly in the filthy ointment: “This morning the National Lawyers Guild announced it had received a restraining order against the city ordering the mobs be allowed back in along with their tents and sleeping bags.” Sure, their constitutional right to make trouble and harrass others! It’s right there in the Commerce Clause.

Kagan to Tribe on day Obamacare passed: “I hear they have the votes, Larry!! Simply amazing.” “The March 2010 email exchange between Kagan and Tribe raises new questions about whether Kagan must recuse herself from judging cases involving the health-care law that Obama signed while Kagan was serving as Obama’s solicitor general…” Raises new questions? You don’t have to be a House Speaker salivating over a can’t-miss IPO to know how Kagan’s gonna vote.

Corzine’s fortune could become a target for more MF Global investors who lost money. “Corzine and other senior executives likely share a liability insurance policy to cover potential lawsuits against them. But experts say potential damages sought could well exceed the limits of their policy.” Hey, lawsuits mean JOBS! Congrats, Barry and Jon!

The Rasmussen Poll asked: “Should spending cuts be considered in every federal government program?” 60% said yes. “Only 28% want any program spared.” Obama’s base: “We are the 28%!”

Maher On Romney: “At least he eats with a knife and fork.” America’s poison dwarf, noting that Mitt is polling behind Cain, says Romney “is all that stands between us and the rise of the apes.” Ummm, does anyone think this twirp would still be doing his Olberman imitation on HBO if he had said “Hillary Clinton is all that stands between us and the rise of the apes” during the Dem campaign in 2008? As Bob Dole said, “Where’s the outrage????”

Counterforce and countermeasure: preparing the election battlespace.“They [the hard-core Marxists astroturfing the Occupy movements] foresee bands of black-masked Occupiers attacking and scattering any legally organized demonstrations the Tea Party may arrange for. The cops can’t do it, but these new Obama Brown Shirts can, while the cops look the other way.” Neither the Bolsheviks in Russia nor the Nazis in Germany nor Mao’s CPC were voted into power in an election. Just sayin’.

Oslo, Norway police: all rapes in past year “committed by men of non-western background.” In 83 of 86 rapes committed in 2005-2010, the man was described as having “non-western appearance.” Gee, we haven’t the foggiest idea whom they could be talking about. A clue: one rapist told his victim “he had the right to do exactly as he wanted to a woman” because his religion said so. Breaking news from Gloria Allred and the MSM: Herman Cain has an apartment in Oslo!

CNN reporter asks Obama: are GOP candidates “uninformed, out of touch, or irresponsible?” Tough, hard-nosed reporting from the journolists (sic) at CNN. Obama is truly awesome – other johns have to pay for fellation from a strange man.

Nancy Pelosi blocked credit card reform while investing millions in exclusive Visa stock offering. The Bay Area’s biggest botox stash was invited to participate in the highly sought-after stock IPO “almost two weeks after a potentially damaging piece of legislation for Visa, the Credit Card Fair Fee Act, had been introduced in the House.” If they’re gonna Occupy Wall St, they should occupy Congress also. The two are joined at the hip – right where their wallets are located.

Canadian PM Stephen Harper said his country will make a bigger push to sell its energy products to Asia after Washington delayed a decision to approve the Keystone XL Canada-to-Texas oil pipeline project. Meanwhile, administration officials continue to fart in the general direction of the nearest windmill, all the while chanting “We’re producing green energy!” With “leaders” like Barack Obama, enemies are clearly redundant.

Unions and Occupy Wall Street protesters will be joining forces next week for a “day of action” to pressure lawmakers on jobs. Jobs, you mean like the ones Obama kissed off the other day by not backing the Keystone XL pipeline? “Many of the events, union officials said, will be focused on urging lawmakers to pass more federal funding for infrastructure.” Get a clue, guys – Wall St LOVES infrastructure spending, it’s a securities industry gold mine. Your biggest enemy is Obama’s enviro-weenie base and the upscale leftists who fund it.

Vandals steal copper sword from Lincoln’s Tomb. “An employee noticed last week that the sword was cut from a statue of a Civil War artillery officer, the (Springfield) State Journal-Register reported Saturday. Officials think the sword was stolen sometime between September and early November.” When penny-ante crooks steal artifacts from public monuments, it’s called “vandalism.” When big-time crooks steal billions from public treasuries, it’s called “investment.”

Tax burdens tilt coastal, and system’s fairness is debated. “…earning $250,000 a year in New York does not buy as much as it does in Iowa…” Boo Hoo. Blue-state pols notice folks fleeing their shakedown rackets for greener pastures. Pols need a way to claw some wealth back or get some to stay. Cutting their own profligate spending is not an option. When a lefty says “fairness”, it means somebody else has something he wants the political system to take.

“Obama campaign backers and bundlers rewarded With Green Grants and Loans” says Newsweek “These programs might be the greatest—and most expensive—example of crony capitalism in American history.” This is no surprise. What is a surprise is one of the Obama-worshipping media cult noticed.

Video of Pulitzer Prize winning reporter at Newark (NJ) Star-Ledger and adjunct professor at Columbia Journalism School Amy Nutt (aptly named) on tape agreeing for need to re-elect Obama. She says it’s “going to help now that (NJ Gov) Chris Christie isn’t running”, a man whom she says is “the great white hope”, “an a**hole, a bully and a liar.” If you buy a newspaper these days, you are basically paying money to read liberal propaganda. They’re not gonna change so save your money and just buy regular toilet paper with no ink on it.

Campaigning for Gov. Jon Corzine in 2009, Vice President Joe Biden brags that Corzine was the first person the newly-inaugurated Obama called for advice on the economy. MF Global, the company Corzine bankrupted, laid off 1,000 employees today. Yeah, this video kinda explains everything.

Gallup: Employer-based health insurance continues to trend down. “Governments and businesses have and will continue to cut back and/or reform their health coverage offerings to handle tough economic circumstances, rising healthcare costs, and requirements of the Affordable Care Act.” If you like your health insurance, you can try and keep it! Thank the three stooges, Barry, Nancy and Harry.

Army sued for $750M over Fort Hood tragedy. 83 victims and family members are suing,alleging that willful negligence enabled psychiatrist Maj. Nidal Hasan to carry out a terrorist attack at Fort Hood, Texas. Claims government “bowed to political correctness and not only ignored the threat Hasan presented but actually promoted him to the rank of major five months before the massacre.” Speaking truth to cowards.

Siga Technologies, a company controlled by Dem donor and billionaire Ronald O. Perelman, has gotten a no-bid contract to supply an unproven experimental smallpox remedy that may not even work. It’s a Solyndra with test tubes! But, to paraphrase what the lying-hypocrticial-fraud in chief once said, sooner or later you’ve made enough money – unless you’re a major Democrat donor, that is.

Unions unhappy with Obama for XL pipeline delay. Voting “present” has its rewards. Union leader: “We had hoped the decision would have been made on the basis of economics, facts and the best interests of the nation, not on the basis of a political calculation.” Get a clue, guys – Barack Obama decides based on the best interests of number one, himself. As the late Frank Zappa said, “you ain’t even number two.”
