The airport to nowhere...Johnstown, PA

The Federal Aviation Administration, after reviewing concerns about a project at a regional airport named after Rep. John P. Murtha (D-Pa.), has decided to go forward with plans to use $800,000 in stimulus funds to repave the airport's alternate runway......

The Washington Post reported last month on more than $150 million in federal funds that Murtha directed to the airport, which has six arriving and departing flights per day. Among the improvements, Murtha directed the Pentagon to give the airport a new, $8 million, state-of-the-art radar tower that has not been used since it was built in 2004, and $30 million for a new runway and tarmac so the airport could handle large military planes and become an emergency military base in case of crisis.

Voelker said the runway is "critical" to Johnstown aircraft because the mountaintop airport is battered by strong winds and needs an alternate landing option for crosswinds.


They have one. It is called Pittsburgh International and it is only 71 miles away.

Now you know why the country is going broke. Giving money to a unindicted co-conspirator will do that to you.

Obama's White House waffles over call for Limbuagh's kidneys failing

Hey hey! Limbaugh! We hope your kidneys fail!

Uh, I didn't read the book....

Presidential spokesman Robert Gibbs on Monday was asked for President Barack Obama's reaction to the joke by comic actress Wanda Sykes at Saturday's White House Correspondents' Association dinner. Obama took part in the event.


But I saw the movie...

Repeat after me. The social journalist who asked that question is a highly trained professional who wasn't aware the video of Obamie grinning existed.

Either that or he is so in the tank for Obamie he thought he would give Obamie a way out.

Obama laughs as the speaker rips Limbaugh


Watch the video. Listen to this spewer of hate make Obamie and his minions at the White House Correspondents dinner laugh at her attacks on Limbaugh because he has the nerve to say that he wants Obamie's policies to fail.

Watch it closely. See the vitriol and the elitist laughter as she claims that Limbaugh is unpatriotic and must have been the 20th highjacker... Watch Obamie smile, not having the decency to frown his displeasure over such divisive and hate filled speech.

Long ago I learned from my Father that you can tell more about a person by what they think is funny than what they ever will tell you. These people cannot tolerate opposition and criticism. Competition is bad, no matter how great freedom and competition has made us. This is a group of people that hate America and their leader is Obamie and he is most pleased to be there.

At a time when most administrations are trying to develop consensus Obamie is pissing on our shoes. He feels secure in the warm glow of the social journalists who no longer report for fear of being pushed away from the Greatness.

There will come a time in which the country will wake up. The Left will get what they have given and the media will cry that we must listen to them and not practice partisanship. I have a simple statement I hope to live long enough to use. It starts with an F and ends with a u.

Hat tip to Claudia for "social journalists." It describes them so very well.

Pelosi proves that she is a liar about EIT


All the Lefties are in a twitter trying to protect their heroine, Nancy P of the "I will save the world clan!" (While getting rich on investments she can control the out come of as Speaker of the House... but I digress.)

In truth she has admitted that she knew what the CIA was doing, and thus proved that she has been lying. Let's look first at what the CIA memo says.

The memo, issued by the Director of National Intelligence and the Central Intelligence Agency to Capitol Hill, notes the Pelosi-Goss briefing covered "EITs including the use of EITs on Abu Zubaydah."


Now, Pelosi has admitted to that.

"As this document shows, the Speaker was briefed only once, in September 2002. The briefers described these techniques, said they were legal, but said that waterboarding had not yet been used," said Brendan Daly, Pelosi's spokesman.


Washington Post source link

Now, all of the EIT’s have been held to be torture. I happen to disagree with that, but Pelosi does not.

And then this fact. The waterboarding of Abu Zubaydah has been know since 12/10/07 when ABC broke the story. So she knew about the techniques in 9/2002 and knew which one had been used and who it had been used on 12/10/2007.

ABC News source link.

She is a liar. She is a serial liar. Now, if the Left want that kind of person to be third in line to be President, that is their choice.

But they MUST drop all the silly "moral values," "world opinion" and "we must take the high road BS" or just admit to being hypocrites!
