Scott Brown Schools Obama on Leadership - #obamafail

I'm liking Scott Brown's weekly radio address. Sit back and listen to Senator Hottie McAwesome blast Obama to outer space. I hope the legislators listen to Brown and keep faith with the Americans who voted for them to represent them in Washington. Keeping faith. Semper Fidelis.

Do We Get To Take A Deep Breath?

I don't know about you. But I, for one, have a new attitude since Scott Brown was elected Senator of Massachusetts. I have been terrified this entire year that Obama would be able to inflict lasting harm onto our nation. Obamacare would have been the worst. The government infrastructure set up to oversee our health care would have harmed that industry greatly. Irreparably.

Also Cap and Tax. And amnesty for illegals. Can it be possible that our politicians will now be able to defend us in Washington? Because, honestly, we have been virtually defenseless through all of 2009. What an awful year that was. Americans protested. Washington politicians cackled, "Ha, ha! Let's ram it through before they can stop us!" Americans called, faxed, emailed and tweeted. Politicians sneered, "Those people calling and writing are fringe elements. They are extremists."

And that is what is so beautiful about what happened in Massachusetts. By electing Scott Brown as the 41st Republican vote, Americans, ordinary Americans showed exactly WHO is upset at the Radical Obama Agenda. Independents and Republicans completely rejected the Obama agenda. And also 20% of Democrats. That is a large group of people. I wonder if the forecasters can take those results and plug them in nationwide for a look at what November 2010 might look like. I hear rumblings on the internet that if the Massachusetts Miracle holds true, Democratss will lose their large majority in congress.

You don't say. You mean you can't sneer at and laugh in voter's faces for a full year an face no consequences?

The best news is that Scott Brown's election brings November's bounty home a little early. Kind of like Christmas in July. November in January. So Happy 2010 my fellow Americans. I have a good feeling about this.

Will Senator Scott Brown Block GITMO Closure?

One of the things Scott Brown criticized during his recently successful Senate campaign was Obama's decision to give Miranda Rights and Tax-Funded American Lawyers to terrorists. Brown feels terrorists should be held as enemy combatants, including the Christmas Day bomber. And that waterboarding is not torture. Can Brown's election have any effect on these policies? Probably not. The pResident has broad authority to make decisions about terrorist trials, as the Commander in Chief of the armed forces.
On the other hand, there might be a little problem with funding now that Brown has been elected. And it is not just about Brown himself. No Democrat up for reelection is sitting in a "safe" seat. The realization has finally hit home that ignoring constituents has serious consequences. And the majority of Americans disapproves of criminal trials for terrorists or bringing GITMO terrorists to the United States.

Obama’s plan to buy an Illinois state prison for use as a detention facility and site for military trials of some Guantanamo prisoners will require Congress to appropriate $150 million or more. White House officials have also said they want Congress to change current law so that some prisoners could be brought to the U.S. for indefinite detention without trial, if necessary.
Some analysts said that even before Brown’s victory Obama needed the equivalent of a triple-bank-shot to get Congress to agree to such moves. Now, they said, it could be all but impossible.

There confusion in the halls of Washington in the wake of Scott Brown's victory. I dare to say that this is an improvement.

Mass Voters Send A Message To Washington

Democrats are in deep, deep trouble…because they allowed the party to be taken over by radical Alinsky socialists and America has realized exactly who’s in the White House and what the people around him are up to.

What happened to Martha Coakley is going to happen to Evan Bayh, Barbara Boxer, Blanche Lincoln, and every other fool Democrat unless they start focusing on job creation and abandon all attempts to inflict socialism or any part of Dr. Utopia’s personal agenda upon this nation.

They need to stop spending.

They need to forget about telling Americans what they have to buy.

They need to stop apologizing for America’s exceptionalism and parading around the world as effete, bowing “global citizens”.

I remember listening to the radio yesterday hearing that Frank Luntz was having problems with Democrats canceling out on him at the last minute. They did not want to be seen in public voting for Coakley. This is a classic sign that the bottom fell out of a political campaign. And the bottom did fall out. Just 6 weeks prior, Coakley led Brown by 30 points. He surged 35 percentage points to win. Astounding. And much needed. Massachusetts voters, in the bluest of the blue states realized that American Government needs checks and balances. Neither party is peopled by choir boys. Our founding fathers knew this and built a system of government whereby we can police each other. It really is best that way.

This Is The Way It's Gonna Be Now, Reid...

Chris Matthews Predicts Scott Brown Win

There is a reason that this is one of the only MSNBC videos ever to be posted on this blog. There is some satisfaction watching the pundits shake their heads. Bellweather polls show Brown leading by double digits. And I even found myself agreeing when they said that Brown was leading, not because of Republicans, but in spite of Republicans.

When will they get it. Voters are DONE with party politics. We are voting for the candidate. Based on RECORD. Not WORDS. And the majority of Americans, including those living in Massachusetts, oppose Obamacare, Amnesty and the rest of the Government Takeover Agenda.

LOVED Him, Hated Her.

Don't these 2 photos from the Boston Globe tell the story perfectly? Brown is surrounded by a crowd of supporters. Coakley, on the other hand, is at a campaign event attended by 200 union workers. They were probably paid to be there. Look at that guy leaning away from her – as if he’s repulsed and can’t wait to get the heck outta there. Those poor guys look embarrassed to be there.
Anybody who thinks Scott Brown can't win this has rocks in his/her head. If you live on the East Coast, bake some brownies this morning and head to a Scott Brown rally. If you don't, head to Scott Brown's campaign site and get a phone list and do some phone banking. You want to stop Obama in his tracks? THEN DO SOMETHING!

SEIU: The Good, The Bad, and the Unethical

Purple-Shirted SEIU Members for Scott Brown: Photo Credit: David Toppen's Facebook Page More after the break

OK, I take back what I said about the SEIU. Not ALL of their members are bad or Union Thugs. I have to tell you, though, it will be hard for me to forget the SEIU beating of Kenneth Gladney or the strong-arm tactics used against the elderly at last summer's town hall meetings. I have got my eye on SEIU and ACORN. Looks like Scott Brown filed an ethics complaint against SEIU today because they may have used public funds to pay their members to hold signs promoting Martha Coakley for Senate.
Hat Tip Red Mass Group.

This is actually great timing. Coakley, the MA Attorney General, has now 1) committed copyright infringement on UPS’s slogan, and 2) slandered Brown about rape victims, and 3) accepted illegal assistance from SEIU who used state resources to campaign for her. All of this stuff hits the fan on Saturday… and you know who is coming to town tomorrow. How is Obama going to get up there on stage with an Attorney General who just committed THREE CRIMES and endorse her for Senate? He’ll do it… and flush any remaining credibility down the toilet.

Coakley Looks On While Her Thug Assaults Reporter

John McCormack of the Weekly Standard asked Coakley about her lobbyist fundraiser last night and he was shoved into a metal barricade by Michael Meehan of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC). After he pushes the reporter to the ground, Meehan "helps" him up and then physically blocks the reporter from moving down the sidewalk. Coakley quietly walks away after witnessing the assault. As the Attorney General, does Coakley have a duty to report or prosecute this type of violent assault? McCormack noticed later that his suit pants were torn, and now he needs a new suit. Looks like Meehan owes him one. Meehan's prior work experience includes work for John Kerry, Maria Cantwell, NARAL, the DNC, and the Dukakis/Bentsen campaign.
More on the Weekly Standard, "We Report, We Get Pushed"

Another less scientific but still telling statistic from the Boston Herald: Brown's crushing Coakley on Facebook. Brown has 20,000 supporters compared to Coakley's 6,000. More interestingly, the "Facebook Women for Brown" group has over 1,000 members, while the "Women for Coakley" group has just 45.

PHRMA *Loves* Martha Coakley

SLEAZY LOBBYIST BRIGADE:

With Democrat Martha Coakley in trouble in the Massachusetts special election to fill Ted Kennedy’s seat, Democrats could lose vote No. 60 for President Obama’s health-care bill. In response, an army of lobbyists for drug companies, health insurance companies, and hospitals has teamed up to throw a high-dollar Capitol Hill fundraiser for Coakley next Tuesday night. The invitation is [above].
Of the 22 names on the host committee–meaning they raised $10,000 or more for Coakley–17 are federally registered lobbyists, 15 of whom have health-care clients. Of the other five hosts, one is married to a lobbyist, one was a lobbyist in Pennsylvania, another is a lawyer at a lobbying firm, and another is a corporate CEO. Oh, and of course, there’s also the political action commitee for Boston Scientific Corporation.
All the leading drug companies have lobbyists on Coakley’s host committee: Pfizer, Merck, Amgen, Sanofi-Aventis, Eli Lilly, Novartis, Astra-Zeneca, and more. On the insurance side of things, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, Cigna, Humana, HealthSouth, and United Health all are represented on the host committee.
From Tim Carney at the Washington Examiner via Michelle Malkin.

Scott Brown was in Massachusetts today, and Coakley was in D.C. Brown raised over a million dollars yesterday via grassroots support. Coakley raised over a million dollars today from the DSCC, DNC and SEIU.

Coakley represents everything that is wrong with America today.

Scott Brown On Greta

Brown did great on Greta again. She wants him back on election night, of course. I am so thrilled to see his money bomb went well over 1 Million Dollars. Way to go, Patriots! You don't have to be Republican or Democrat to want balance back in Washington.

URGENT: HELP US WIN IN MASSACHUSETTS

By DICK MORRIS & EILEEN MCGANN

Published on DickMorris.com on January 11, 2010

The Republican tide is now so strong that there is even a chance to take away the Kennedy Senate seat in Massachusetts. A January 9th survey by Public Policy Polling has Democrat Martha Coakley and Republican Scott Brown in a dead 48-47 heat. Rasmussen, in an earlier survey, had Coakley only 9 points ahead.

If Brown were to take the seat it would end the Democrats' 60 vote supermajority in the Senate. Health care would probably still pass if the House just accepted the Senate version, but nothing else would. The Obama revolution will be over and he will have to negotiate with Republicans to have his way.

Even if Brown comes close to Coakley, the result will send shivers through the Democratic establishment and trigger more defections, party switches, and retirements. The elections in the People's Republic of Massachusetts could send a signal that, even here, the Republican-conservative tide is strong and sweeping.

The League of American voters is about to unveil an ad to be run in Massachusetts emphasizing the importance of having a system of checks and balances in Washington. The ad says "it's not about party or politics. It's about checks and balances."

Please help us put the ad on the air. CLICK HERE to donate to help us raise $300,000 for a last minute media buy to push Brown and the Republicans to victory.

We will send you the ad as soon as it is finished (likely tomorrow). With your funds, we can roll back the 60 vote Democratic supermajority and restore some sense of balance to Washington.

The ad draws on the recent tradition in Massachusetts of electing Republican governors to check the excesses of Democrats in the State Legislature. For twenty years, the state has elected one Republican after the other as Governor while returning a solidly Democratic Congressional and Senatorial delegation, top heavy Democratic legislative majorities and a full slate of Democrats for other statewide offices. The idea of checks and balances - of restraining the liberal big spending policies of the Democrats - sells well in Massachusetts.

We may have a rare opportunity here to change the nation's course and we all have to pitch in to make it possible.

This is a full copy/paste of an email to me from Dick Morris. I can't imagine he will mind if I repost in its entirety, considering I am including full links to him. Bottom line is, this is a pivotal point in our battle against Obama and his radical Marxist agenda. The reason the MA senate election feels like a national election is because it is one. And the first order of business is to help this man get elected. Let's do what we can so that we have a prayer of keeping our Republic. You think those words are too strong? I don't. A full-on takeover of 1/6 of the nation's economy, with ALL of us having to answer to the government for our HEALTH, our LIVES and the government reaching into our BANK ACCOUNTS, is not freedom. When majority rule decides what rights we are entitled to, we are no longer protected by the Bill of Rights and the Constitution. Then the Republic is lost.

DEMS Intend to Stall Scott Brown's Swearing-In Until AFTER Obamacare Vote?

Today, a spokesman for Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin, who is overseeing the election but did not respond to a call seeking comment, said certification of the Jan. 19 election by the Governor’s Council would take a while.

“Because it’s a federal election,” spokesman Brian McNiff said. “We’d have to wait 10 days for absentee and military ballots to come in.”

Another source told the Herald that Galvin’s office has said the election won’t be certified until Feb. 20 - well after the president’s address.

Since the U.S. Senate doesn’t meet again in formal session until Jan. 20, Bay State voters will have made their decision before a vote on health-care reform could be held. But Kirk and Galvin’s office said today a victorious Brown would be left in limbo.

In contrast, Rep. Niki Tsongas (D-Lowell) was sworn in at the U.S. House of Representatives on Oct. 18, 2007, just two days after winning a special election to replace Martin Meehan. In that case, Tsongas made it to Capitol Hill in time to override a presidential veto of the expansion of the State Children’s Health Insurance Program.

Yesterday, Brown, who has been closing the gap with Coakley in polls and fund raising, blasted the political double standard.

“This is a stunning admission by Paul Kirk and the Beacon Hill political machine,” said Brown in a statement. “Paul Kirk appears to be suggesting that he, Deval Patrick, and (Senate Majority Leader) Harry Reid intend to stall the election certification until the health care bill is rammed through Congress, even if that means defying the will of the people of Massachusetts. As we’ve already seen from the backroom deals and kickbacks cut by the Democrats in Washington, they intend to do anything and everything to pass their controversial health care plan. But threatening to ignore the results of a free election and steal this Senate vote from the people of Massachusetts takes their schemes to a whole new level. Martha Coakley should immediately disavow this threat from one of her campaign’s leading supporters.”
