Liberal Activist Rushed Rand Paul (R) Before Being Restrained And Stepped on

Posted: 31 Oct 2010 01:35 PM PDT


In the clip you can see her rush Paul's (R) car and than at best try to shove a sign in his face and at worst try to hit him with it. Either way it would indicate the restraint was justifiable, however the stop still seems excessive.

Obama Heckled by Liberal Protesters; Tells Them to go Heckle Republicans

Posted: 30 Oct 2010 09:01 PM PDT


For Obama to suggest 'the other side' (read Republicans) somehow does not care or in some way has hindered AIDS aid is beyond disingenuous. Also, the president should not be encouraging hecklers to bother their opponents.

Video embedded below.



"Obama took a break from his trusty teleprompter to address the protesters:

Excuse me, excuse me, excuse me, young people? Let me just say this: You've been appearing at every rally we've been doing, and we're funding global AIDS, and the other side is not. So I don't know why you think this is a useful strategy to take. I think it would make a lot more sense for you guys to go to the folks who aren't interested in funding global AIDS, and go to that rally. We're trying to figure out how to finance the things that you want financed. You guys have made your point. Let's go.

...
Who are the people "who aren't interested in funding global Aids"? Is the implication that they are Obama's political opponents? That's the way it sounds to me, but I'm a little sensitive.

The United States devotes enormous sums of money to fighting AIDS. In 2009 the United States was the largest donor in the world, accounting for more than half of disbursements by governments. And it's Bush's fault! Or, rather, credit.

As the AP reported at the end of Bush's time in office, Bush launched a $15 billion plan in 2003 to expand AIDS prevention, treatment and support programs in 15 hard-hit countries, 12 of them African, which account for more than half the world's estimated 33 million AIDS infections.

The AP report notes that the initiative tied in with a World Health Organization campaign to put 3 million people on AIDS drugs by 2005 -- a goal it says was reached in 2007. The AP added that Congress passed legislation in 2008 that more than tripled the budget to $48 billion over the next five years, with Republicans and Democrats alike hailing the program as a remarkable success.

Smugapalooza at Rally to Restore Sanity And/or Fear

Rally to Restore Sanity And/or Fear Overhead Shot

Posted: 30 Oct 2010 08:11 PM PDT


After any major rally, one of the biggest questions becomes how large it was. Here are some pictures to help estimate.

Pictures embedded below.





That is a lot of people. Exactly how large is difficult to tell from the angle. As I recall, Adam Savage of Mythbusters fame announced there were 150,000 people in the crowd, while Jon Stewart estimated 250,000 plus. The overhead shots come with an estimate of 215,000 +/-10% from AirPhotosLive.com (the ones who vastly underestimated Beck's Restoring Honor Rally).

First impressions of the pictures puts my estimate between 200,000 and 300,000; less then Beck's Restoring Honor Rally, but more than the One Nation Rally.

Justice Kagan's First Vote is in Minority to Stay an Execution

Posted: 30 Oct 2010 06:09 PM PDT


Jeffrey Landrigan, the death row inmate hoping for the reprieve, was executed soon after the decision was handed down.

http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/sc-dc-1028-court-execution-20101027,0,6859358.story

"Washington…Justice Elena Kagan cast her first recorded vote on the Supreme Court late Tuesday, joining the liberals in dissent when the high court cleared the way for the execution of an Arizona murderer.

The 5-4 ruling overturned orders by a federal judge in Phoenix and the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco that had stopped the execution by lethal injection of Jeffrey Landrigan.

His lawyers, in a last-ditch appeal, had raised questions about one of the drugs used in the execution. Since the only U.S. manufacturer of sodium thiopental had suspended production, Arizona officials said they had obtained a supply of the drug from a British company.
