Democrat Congresswoman inadvertently reveals that Cap-and-Trade will trash our future

Rep. Yvette Clarke, a New York Democrat, told C-SPAN exactly why she voted in favor of the Cap-and-Trade bill. She’s either the most ignorant woman in Washington, DC or the most honest. Take your choice.

Rep. Yvette Clarke, a New York Democrat, told C-SPAN exactly why she voted in favor of the Cap-and-Trade bill. She’s either the most ignorant woman in Washington, DC or the most honest. Take your choice.

C-SPAN: What factors are you considering that would push you to vote yea or nay?
CLARKE: You know, there were a whole host of concerns that I had about whether we were really taking all the steps and measures we need to jettison us into the 21st century.

Yes, Rep. Clarke, Cap-and-Trade will definitely jettison us into the 21st century. We’re just not sure Rep. Clarke knows what jettison means.

So in an effort to educate, we proudly present the Merriam-Webster definition of jettison: “To throw away, of something encumbering.”

Synomyms include “get rid of, remove, discard, fling, toss, toss out, chuck out, cast aside, dispose, throw out, cast out, throw away, cast away, put away.”

So our deepest appreciation goes out to Rep. Yvonne Clarke, the only Democrat in Washington, DC willing to admit that Cap-and-Trade will throw away our future.

Be careful what you wish for: Introducing the wife of Iranian “reform” candidate Mousavi

Zahra Rahnavard, wife of Iranian “reformist” candidate Hossein Mousavi, is often referred to as an agent of change. But this photo of Zahra stomping on homemade flags of Great Britain, the United States and Israel makes you wonder what kind of change they’re talking about.

Zahra Rahnavard, wife of Iranian “reformist” candidate Hossein Mousavi, is often referred to as an agent of change. But this photo of Zahra stomping on homemade flags of Great Britain, the United States and Israel makes you wonder what kind of change they’re talking about.

CreepingSharia.com quotes Zahra as saying, “I and my husband are mujahids to the last drop of our blood – fighting side by side with the Muslims of the world for the sake of Islam and the Qur’an, and in confrontation of kufir and shirk embodied by the US, western imperialism and fellow travellers. My ambition is to see all Muslims rise on those lines until the day arrives when the world is transformed into an Islamic garden of faith, justice, and equality. They see it far away and we see it nearby.

We don’t often agree with President Obama here at IHateTheMedia.com, but he may have been right on when he said there wasn’t much difference between Achmadinejad and Mousavi. At least there doesn’t appear to be much difference between Achmadinejad and Mousavi’s wife.

So like your mother always said, “Be careful what you wish for, you stinking little imperialist, Zionist pig.”

Burger King uses oral sex to sell “Super Seven Incher”

Congratulations to Burger King. They’re the winners of this month’s award for most sexually-distasteful advertisement. Everything about this ad revolves around oral sex, starting with the name “Super Seven Incher.”

Congratulations to Burger King. They’re the winners of this month’s award for most sexually-distasteful advertisement.

Everything about this ad revolves around oral sex, starting with the name “Super Seven Incher.” Then it moves on to the man-sized sandwich itself, which is covered with creamy mayo and perfectly lined-up with the model’s open mouth. And, of course, just in case Burger King’s been too subtle about the oral sex references, the big, bold headline says, “It’ll Blow Your Mind Away.” (wink, wink)

And then we conclude with this suggestive copy:

“Fill your desire for something long, juicy and flame-grilled with the NEW BK SUPER SEVEN INCHER. Yearn for more after you taste the mind-blowing burger that comes with a single beef patty, topped with American cheese, crispy onions and the A1 Thick and Hearty Steak Sauce.”

Damn, we can’t wait for the ad when Burger King introduces tacos.

The 4 RINO cap ‘n traiters with Twitter accounts have nothing to tweet

Four of the eight republicans who voted for the Cap and Trade (American Clean Energy and Security Act) tax bill have active Twitter accounts, but nothing to tweet about it.

Eight so-called republicans voted “Yes” for the Cap and Trade (American Clean Energy and Security Act) tax bill that goes against the most basic of core conservative principles.

Four of the eight RINO’s active Twitter accounts, so we checked their page at 6:00PM PST, more than 24 hours after they helped the democrats pass what was no doubt the most devastating vote they have ever made in the House of Representatives.

Massachusetts spending $2,000,000 per month housing the homeless in motels

Housing Massachusetts’ homeless is costing tax payers around $2 million per month. It costs an average of $85 per night to have families, including nearly 1000 children, stay in motels.

Massachusetts' plan to pay for housing the homeless in motels
Massachusetts' plan to pay for housing the homeless in motels

First Massachusetts gave ‘em welfare, then they gave ‘em food stamps, then they gave them free cell phones through Safelink Wireless, then they gave ‘em free cars. And now, they’re spending $2,000,000 per month to house the homeless in motels.

WPRI reports:

A record number of families are being put up in motels in Massachusetts. High unemployment and the rising number of home foreclosures is the reason the state is taking this action.

Housing Massachusetts’ homeless is costing tax payers around $2 million per month. It costs an average of $85 per night to have families, including nearly 1000 children, stay in motels.

The Interagency Council on Housing and Homelessness admits that the use of motels for the homeless is not ideal, but is the best that can be done at this time.

Homeless advocates are worried that families are not getting the support of shelters with living rooms, kitchens, and play areas.

This looks like a self-defeating proposition to us:

Give everything to those who have nothing by taxing those who do have something until they don’t have anything.

Belgian tattoo artist creates tribute to Obama’s 57 states

We suspect tattoo artist Rouslan Toumaniantz’ true goal was to give her 57 stars as a tribute to Barack Obama’s 57 states, but as a good liberal he intentionally omitted the star representing Sarah Palin’s Alaska.

56-tattoos

Belgian teenager Kimberly Vlaeminck says she wanted three stars tattooed around here eyes. But she fell asleep during the procedure and woke up with 56 stars.

We suspect tattoo artist Rouslan Toumaniantz’ true goal was to give her 57 stars as a tribute to Barack Obama’s 57 states, but as a good liberal he intentionally omitted the star representing Sarah Palin’s Alaska.

Update: The truth comes out. Vlaeminck didn’t fall asleep. She made the whole story up because her father was furious when he saw what she’d done. So it turns out she’s the one who wanted the tribute to Obama’s 57 states.

Shoving match breaks out in House when Maxine Waters doesn’t get “monument to me”

An altercation broke out between Waters and fellow Democrat Dave Obey, Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee.

You can count on Maxine Waters, the Democrat from California, to freak out at least once per session. Yesterday was the day.

Best of all, the altercation was between Waters and fellow Democrat Dave Obey, Chairman of the House Appropriations Committee.

It all started when Obey refused to fund an earmark Waters requested for an institute that bears her name. Obey commonly refuses to fund what he calls “monuments to me.”

(Video clip of another famous Maxine Waters moment – the day she revealed the true Democrat agenda)

After Obey turned her down, Waters tried another tack. How about, she proposed, if we give the money to a different school that could then funnel the money back the first school. Waters “became irate” when Obey also turned down that transparently fraudulent request.

Obey tried to walk away to let the situation cool down, but Waters hounded him around the House floor and continued her tirade.

“She was in his face,” one witness observed, and the dispute degenerated into a “shoving match.”

A spokesman for Obey said Waters “accosted” the Chairman and “made a scene.” As one might expect, Waters was unavailable for comment.

We would like to thank the people of California’s 35th Congressional District. If it weren’t for your ability to overlook Maxine Waters obvious lunacy, we would have far less material to write about here at IHateTheMedia.com.

We thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Associated Press redefines “flipflop.” It’s now called “presidential flexibility”

The Associated Press has reworded flipflop to Presidential flexibilty, just for Obama.

If George Bush had done a 180 on any issue, he would have been skewered for his flipflop. But when it comes to Barack Obama, the Associated Press praises him for his remarkable “presidential flexibility.”

head-up-ass

The embedded video clip shows Obama excoriating Republican opponent John McCain during the campaign for saying he would tax healthcare.

And here’s how the Associated Press reports the President’s new position on the issue:

“At the White House, Obama sidestepped when asked if he was open to taxing health care benefits — a proposal he opposed vigorously in the campaign for the White House…It was the latest in a series of signs of presidential flexibility.”

The attached photo is proof of just how flexible the president is on this issue.

Open thread: Cap and Trade Discussion

Nancy Pelosi, Al Gore and the House of Representatives have been quietly, but furiously trying to slip Cap- and-trade (formally called the American Clean Energy and Security Act) through this week before anyone notices. This will be the largest tax-increasing, economy-killing bill in United States history, all based upon the biggest scam in the history: Global Warming Climate Change.

House Democrats must be incredibly pleased that Michael Jackson’s death is now dominating the news, further obfuscating their attempt to pass this bill in the dark of night without hearing any GOP amendments.

This is such an important topic that we’re opening this thread so you can share your thoughts and provide whatever information you hear about Cap-and-Trade today. Include phone numbers of House members on the fence so others can call and help convince them to vote no. IHateTheMedia.com had over 10,000 visitors yesterday, so you can make a difference here.

Three Democrats tell the truth about cap-and-trade

Three Democrats, John Dingell, Charlie Melancon, Mike Ross, tell the truth about cap-and-trade energy tax bill for non-existent global warming and climate change.

John Dingell (D-MI) said H.R. 2454 is “a tax and it’s a great big one.”

Charlie Melancon (D-LA) said, “I believe this bill would create an undue burden on families who are already paying too much in energy bills.”

Mike Ross (D-AR) said, “‘If you don’t like $4-a-gallon gasoline, you’re really not going to like your electric bill sometime between now and 2030.”

Freedom fighters: Reagan versus Obama

This video clip perfectly contrasts Reagan’s outspoken support for Poland’s freedom fighters to the Obama administration’s tepid non-comments about Iran.

Obama callously kills off 2,000,000 American Muslims

In one of the greatest unreported genocides in history, President Obama has quietly killed off 2,000,000 American Muslims. At least that’s what appears to have happened.

2,000,000 Muslims have disappeared under mysterious circumstances since President Obama took office

In one of the greatest unreported genocides in history, President Obama has quietly killed off 2,000,000 American Muslims. At least that’s what appears to have happened.

In his Cairo speech on June 4, he mentioned “nearly seven million American Muslims in our country today.” Yet in an interview this week with the Pakistani newspaper Dawn, he said “we have five million Muslims.”

Fact is, most authorities questioned the President’s original seven million figure and will also question his lowered number. For example, the U.S. Census Bureau cites a Pew Forum study that says Muslims comprise just 0.6% of the American population. The CIA World Factbook uses the same figure. That would indicate a total American Muslim population of just 1.8 million.

Where did Obama’s 2,000,000 missing Muslims go? We suspect that they’re off on a hike with South Carolina Governor Sanford.

White House to mysteriously “save or create” $50 billion in prescription drug costs

The same clever technique used by the White House to save or create 150,000 jobs will now be used to save or create $50 billion in prescription drug cost cuts. In other words, they’re creating it out of thin air.

The same clever technique used by the White House to save or create 150,000 jobs will now be used to save or create $50 billion in prescription drug cost cuts. In other words, they’re creating it out of thin air.

When asked, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs couldn’t explain $50 billion of the $80 billion in savings promised by the White House.

Gibbs said $30 billion will be saved via price reductions on brand-name prescription drugs for Medicare beneficiaries who find themselves into the so-called coverage “donut hole.”
But that remaining $50 billion? Well, that’s a bit murkier. He said it will come from “unspecified and unknown” changes to drug costs linked to Medicare and Medicaid.

“They’re still continuing to work through some of the details on that,” Gibbs said with a straight face. “Some portion of this is going to go to the pharmaceutical interest — industry, making good on the savings proposals that the president has outlined to make health care more efficient, which will impact the amount that the government pays.”

We are highly trained medical experts here at IHateTheMedia.com, so we consider it our patriotic duty to explain these things:

The remaining $50 billion will be saved via cost reductions on the snake oil this administration is selling.

Does Michelle Obama have a drinking problem? Is alcohol rehab part of healthcare plan?

Michelle Obama – cracking under the pressure of being First Lady – is drinking way more than she should, friends fear.

"So tell me, Lizzie, where can a gal get a glass of warm Guinness around here?"
"So tell me, Lizzie, where can a gal get a glass of warm Guinness around here?"

If it weren’t for the National Enquirer’s outstanding work on the John Edwards “Baby Mama” story, this new story would easy to laugh off. But nobody’s laughing. Especially Barack Obama.

Michelle Obama – cracking under the pressure of being First Lady – is drinking way more than she should, friends fear.

Longtime pals have been keeping a close eye on her White House booze intake for months, sources told The ENQUIRER, and her husband President Barack Obama even stepped in when she recently consumed too much alcohol.



“When Barack saw Michelle drink more than she should at a recent dinner, he hit the roof. He told her, ‘This is NOT going to turn into a problem!'” a close source told The ENQUIRER.



“Barack is overly sensitive to the issue because of his own past drinking and substance abuse problems. But he also feels guilty because of the pictures taken of him drinking beer at an NBA game recently.”



The President also feels he may have contributed to his wife’s alcohol issues by not stopping her from overindulging during their date night in New York City on May 30.



Michelle, 45, knocked back “a glass or two of champagne” while the couple flew to the Big Apple on a private jet, according to the close source, and published reports said she downed two martinis during dinner at the Greenwich Village restaurant Blue Hill.



“It was clear that Mrs. Obama was having a VERY good time,” a restaurant employee told The ENQUIRER. 



“There’s a real fear that she may be drinking more than she should as a result of the pressures that come along with being First Lady,” an insider divulged.

It looks like “Last call” are the First Lady’s least favorite words.

Muslims nations want to muzzle UN’s free speech watchdog

Frank La Rue is a UN Special Rapporteur on the right to free expression. (Only a bloated bureaucracy like the UN could come up with a title like “rapporteur.”)

Anyway, La Rue found himself in hot water last week at the Organization of the Islamic Conference. All because he had the nerve to say, “Restrictions (on free speech) should never be used to protect particular institutions or abstract notions, concepts or beliefs, including religious ones.”

He went on to say that “defamation of religions does not accord with international standards on freedom of expression.”

That’s when the couscous hit the fan. Angry Muslim representatives from Africa, the Gulf States, Pakistan, Algeria, Egypt, Malaysia, Sudan and Yemen want La Rue fired for…well…for supporting free speech.

Luckily, La Rue found support from the United States, the United Kingdom and several other nations who pointed out that the UN’s free speech rapporteur should feel free to speak freely.

In the words of MediaWatchWatch.org, “Allah forbid that an officer responsible for the protection of freedom of expression should be free to express his support for freedom of expression!”

Go figure.

Luckily, the poll has a margin of error of 4.5%, which means the actual percentage of Jewish Israelis who are stark, raving lunatics may be as low as 1.5%.

The poll was conducted among a random sample of 500 Israeli Jewish adults.

New Iranian protest signs warn clerics, “Do not forget what happened to Saddam Hussein”

George Bush’s establishment of a democracy in Iraq is inspiring democratic movements in other Muslim nations like Iran. Sign in Iran: “Do not forget what happened to Saddam Hussein”

Do not forget what happened to Saddam Hussein sign

That poor, deluded George Bush. He actually thought the establishment of a democracy in Iraq would inspire democratic movements in other Muslim nations.

But Bush was apparently wrong. Barack Obama credits his own Cairo speech for inspiring the Lebanese voters’ to reject Hezbollah. And he’s probably equally confident that this new Iranian protest sign was inspired when he said spoke those powerful words, “It’s not productive given the history of U.S.-Iranian relations to be seen as meddling.”

Perhaps the following slogan would serve as a warning to Barack Obama:

“Do not forget what happened to Jimmy Carter.”
