Oliver Stone shadows Hugo Chavez - Political Wrinkles

ALL celebrities that back Chavez are left wing...

But what happens if a Democrat becomes Prez?...

The Democratic candidates haven't been warm with Chavez, and will still consider him dangerous in national security interests...

That would leave these socialist celebrities turning their back on Chavez and telling the world that the US isn't "imperialist" anymore () or they'll CONTINUE to show their true colors and rally against America even though their own will be leading the country...

Decisions decisions...

2008 Dead Pool - Political Wrinkles

Number of Republicans in U.S. Increases in December to Two-Year High - Political Wrinkles

You know what I find the most funny about this?...

The busted myth that Republicans are CEOs in 3 piece suits swimming in $100 bills in the conference room or backwoods rednecks kissing their sister...

There must be violence against women - Political Wrinkles

This title may sound strange, but it's actually not just a way to attract readers to the topic because I really do mean what it indicates. Violence is a broad term, especially when used regarding women. In this piece, I want to shed light on those instances where violence against women is a must.

Ironically, I don't blame the artist...he's clearly retarded, but also a capitalistic whose realizing PT Barnum's quote of a sucker born every minute...

And that sucker du jour is the Centre where the display is being shown...

Giving morons a stage doesn't say much for their credibility...

Should organ donation after death be opt-in or opt-out? - Political Wrinkles

I'm against this...

Knowing that saving a patient teetering on death will lose "products" that could be used to help others will make doctors think twice about doing all they can...especially in cases where the "value of life" wouldn't be high even if they do save the patient...

Panel: Increase gas tax to fix roadways - Political Wrinkles

I have a feeling that this will NOT pass... raising gas prices by 40 more cents a gallon??? Even though it will be a "slow increase", it will still put a hardship already in place for some commuters.

...just in Thailand...

Don't treat the old and unhealthy, say doctors - Political Wrinkles

From jolly old England...

The funny part here is that if these people are denied the ability to participate in the medical process, they should be able to opt-out from PAYING into the medical process in the first place...

Why on earth should taxes be taken out of their paychecks they can't be a part of?...

Briton admits plot to behead Muslim soldier - Political Wrinkles

This is part of the problem that a lot of people can't see (or refuse to)...

Before technology and swift global travel, the world looked at the Middle East as archaic and stagnant, but really didn't care because everything was being done on their own turf...It was THEIR problem and as long as it didn't effect the West, it wasn't a worry...

But that same archaic society is being EXPORTED to Western turf...That changes everything...

If two guys are fighting down the block, you're not involved, so what do you care?...

But if those guys fight up the block, onto your lawn, through your front door, and into your living room, it now becomes your problem...

And this is just the latest example of that...The world has become too small to let others crash into a different location and bring their disgusting customs, culture, and thought process into modern society...

Naked truth: It's offensive - Political Wrinkles

This ad could've been done without the nuns...It's not overt, and I wouldn't go as far as "disgusting" or "disgraceful, but I do see this as another example where Christianity can be offended with impunity...People won't die and embassies won't be burned because Christian leaders will tell the masses to do so at the weekly gathering...

I also suspect the makers won't be doing any burqa-related ads anytime soon...

FBI catches five 'swatters' - Political Wrinkles

This is the "Jackass" and "Punk'd" world we live in...:(

Study: Smokers, Obese Cost Less To Treat - Political Wrinkles

Along with the fact that the obese and smokers won't live to collect one dime of the social security dollars that they've put into it for 40+ years...

Fate Of Rebate Checks In Limbo After Vote - Political Wrinkles

I'm not for the rebates to begin with...

But if you are going to do the rebate thing, the one thing you DON'T want to do is load up the bill with other stuff, bloating it into a mega-bill...especially when eveyone's bitching about Congressional spending in the first place...

Murtha Prepares War Bill - Political Wrinkles

I would like to remind people that the definition of "insanity" is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different outcome...

Unless, of course, you believe the 43rd time's the charm...

Should birthright citizenship continue? - Political Wrinkles

Most laws work until situations or loopholes arise that destroy the original intent of the law itself...

When this first went into effect, the subject of "anchor babies" was not in play...

But now that they are, do the laws need to change or do you believe that birthright citizenship should stay?...

U.S. surveys: Girls out-drinking boys - Political Wrinkles

This just shows the negative aspect of gender equality...

If you want the good things that used to come with the traditional male requirements like being the bread-winner, you also end up requiring the same bad habits as well...

Jewish Rep. Cohen Battles Antisemitism and Racism In Re-Election - Political Wrinkles

There goes the religious right again... Oh wait...This is the Democratic primary...

If you thought race was an uncomfortable issue in the Democratic presidential primary, wait 'til you get a load of what's going on in the Democratic primary in the Memphis area's 9th District of Tennessee, where a shockingly worded flier paints Jewish Rep. Steve Cohen (D-Tenn.) as a Jesus hater.

Superdelegates get campaign cash - Political Wrinkles

Irrelevant of how it turns out, I think we can safely say that the Democratic primaries are officially a farce now...

When people who vote are getting paid for their votes, even if every one of these votes didn't matter in the outcome, just the fact thet they're paid by campaign committees is enough to conclude that the "will of the people" (or state) is secondary to the votes of paid electors

Action Taken Against 911 Officials Who Put Woman On Hold - Political Wrinkles

Brenda Orr, 53, was smoking in bed and couldn't get out as it erupted in flames at her Doylestown home on Jan. 29. She died in the fire.

Iran Could Have Enough Uranium for a Bomb by Year's End - Political Wrinkles

Two points of interest...

First, this shows that the NIE is, indeed, an ESTMATE...People taking it as gospel was just plain absurd...

But more important...Does it MATTER if Iran could produce a nuclear weapon in 1 year or 4 years?...Either way, it should be confronted NOW instead of just thinking "oh we got time still."...By then, it may be too late...

Black backers steadfast for Clinton - Political Wrinkles

Fun stuff from the Democrats...

"Vote by race or you're a traitor!"...:(

The Other Obama - Political Wrinkles

Michelle the Unproud is at it again...

Gotta love it!...

Someone living in a house she paid $1.65 MILLION DOLLARS (at a discount, no less, thanks to Resko), and she has the gaul to tell everyone how "jammed up" people are today...

That's a mighty pair of elitist balls...

Senate Backs Some Tax Cuts, Nixes Others - Political Wrinkles

This is for all of those that think the Democrats want to swing into the White House and start taxing the "rich people" to help the "little people"...

Nope...You're ALL gonna get smacked...

Secretary Of State Certifies The Colorado Civil Rights Initiative For November Ballot - Political Wrinkles

Big step forward...

What this is saying is "Black people were screwed 40 years ago, but we will NOT try and make it "even out" by screwing white people now."...

When a group has been hit with injustice in the past the way to resolve it is FAIRNESS and not trying to equal it out by pushing injustice on the other side...

Penn out as Clinton senior strategist - Political Wrinkles

So far, we've had Obama chastise the Free Trade agreement with Canada only to have his economic policy advisor talk to Canada and tell them it's ?more reflective of political maneuvering than policy? then Clinton's campaign manager is found to have made $200,000 on failed mortgages while she screams for more government bailouts, then Obama's advisor on Iraq writes a report saying 60,000 to 80,000 troops should stay in Iraq until at least the end of 2010 while Obama tells us how we should start leaving the day after he's inaugurated...

...and now this...

If the truth will set one free, these two will be held prisoner for quite some time...

It's The Reaction Stupid! - Political Wrinkles

A lot of people are trying to spin or downplay recents quotes from Obama, his wife, and Jerimiah Wright...

It's seems there are many defenders who believe these are situations where "poor choice of words" are used or a phrase was "badly written" or that's not what they "really meant"...

I do not accept these as true answers, and I'll tell you why...

Sharpton Raps Obama - Political Wrinkles

Just those nasty Republicans making everything about race again...

Good news indeed...

And may I point out that, unlike 99% of captured terrorists, this guy KNOWS things...he has financial information, weapons information, organizational information, names of commanders, and a I few other things...

This guy is a PRIME candidate to be waterboarded...

NOT for revenge...NOT for punishment...NOT to SEE if he knows things...

Strictly due to the fact that we KNOW he knows things which will ultimately save American lives...

Michael Moore making '9/11' sequel - Political Wrinkles

Somebody needs their name in the paper again...

I think I'll go watch the Lord of the Rings trilogy again so I can see something closer to reality...

Pelosi Credits Iran for Surge Success - Political Wrinkles

Pelosi believes the same people that provide ammunition & training to kill American soldiers are the people that HELPED the surge succeed...

Not the troops themselves...not the Iraqi Army at the forefront...not the fact that Al-Qaeda's infrastructure has greatly deteriorated...

It was the Iranians that helped the surge succeed...:(

Pander to voters at peril, U.S. told - Political Wrinkles

Screw our friends like Canada...have fireside chats with enemies like Iran...

At this point I'm hoping for Superman to show up and say Obama's name backwards to send him back to the 4th dimension...

Iraq insists on withdrawal timetable - Political Wrinkles

So the withdraw will NOT be set on times, but on conditions...

There's an element of truth here (and an obvious injection of race), but I "think" this is just Nader trying to get his name in the paper...

Have the Clintons Gotten Over It? - Political Wrinkles

Awhile ago, I heard on TV that the Clinton plan is to sabatoge Obama in this election cycle so Hillary can go against McCain personally in 2012...

I used to think that was just conspiracy, but I'm starting to find some credibility in it...

McCain, Obama react to Georgia fighting - Political Wrinkles

Obama wants a UN Security Council resolution...

But ANYONE with an IQ above 13 knows that...

A) Russia is ON the UN Security Council...

B) Russia has VETO power...

So Obama wants Russia to pass a resolution against itself...

Ready to lead?...This guy's not even ready to open for Carrot Top...

Problem with the Dem's "McCain dies" theory - Political Wrinkles

Obama Calls for Involuntary Servitude - Political Wrinkles

"Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to REQUIRE 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year."

Just make it up as you go along...

I imagine Clay Aiken will be a shepherd

As most of you politicos know, Patrick Fitzgerald is a US Attorney for the Department of Justice...he's the guy who prosecuting the Valerie Plame leak.

...and now he's heading the prosecution for the governor of Illinois...

Oblivious Obama - Political Wrinkles

A big issue (which is hush-hush in the MSM) is pretty simple...

One can SAY that Obama wasn't corrupt and not directly part of the Chicago thug politics, but Obama also didn't live in a vacuum...

The question is "Was Obama oblivious to his surroundings?"

Creationism in Schools? - Political Wrinkles

I don't believe it should be talked abous AS A SCIENCE CLASS...

...But to stifle it completely goes against any philosophical idea of education...

It's ironic that "open your mind" is supposed to be the daily dose, but "except THAT" comes out soonafter...

Democrats criticize Obama's proposed tax cuts - Political Wrinkles

This is too funny to believe...

Obama throws the one thing in that will make a few faux-Republicans vote for the trillion dollar crap cassarole, and these guys cry about it...

What makes this doubly rich?...

ALL THREE of these turds voted FOR the $600 "stimulus" checks last year...

My how the winds change...

Obama takes on a sacred issue - Political Wrinkles

The New York Times...

"Able to rewrite history for the Democrats"...

Conservative talk radio on the wane in California - Political Wrinkles

I nominate this the dumbest story of the year (so far)...

The bolded line is the kicker...

Anyone with an IQ above 5 can say "The economy's downturn has depressed ad revenue at stations across the state, thinning the ranks of (inset ANY kind of broadcaster here)...disk-jockeys...news reporters..."on-air personalities"...sports commentators...NON-Conservative broadcasters...

But they HAD to point out conservatives over EVERY OTHER issue and non-issue related broadcasters simply to take a partisan cheap shot...

Geithner: Treasury pushed for bonus loophole - Political Wrinkles

First Dodd lied saying he had nothing to do with it...

Then he comes out and tells the truth...That he WAS part of it but only because Obama's Treasury Secretary requested it...

Now we have the Treasury Secretary admitting it...Which is a blatant contradiction to the deceptive timeline Obama's administration put forth just a couple of days ago...

Cheney Calls For More CIA Reports To Be Declassified - Political Wrinkles

If Obama and his "transparency express" want to be honest they could show the American people the RESULTS of the tactics instead of just griping about the tactics themselves...

That is the ONLY way for the public to have a fair debate...to have ALL of the information on the table and not just the parts that make Obama's enemies look bad (By "enemies", I mean "Republicans" and not "terrorists")...

So Obama-Wan Kanobi...The ball's in your court...

Are you gonna put your money where your transparency-spewing mouth is and show ALL of the memos?...Or are you going to play "transparency only when it benefits me"?...

10-1 we get crickets...

Pelosi Changes Story - Political Wrinkles

Now some might say there's not much of a difference, but there's a HUGE one...

In her first scenario, she claims that they said there were people who believed they could use waterboarding, but didn't say that they WERE using it or whether they were NOT using it...

And since it is known that they HAVE used it, you can't accuse the people briefing her of lying to her...Just not mentioning it either way...

But in her Waterboarding Defense 2.0, she now claims that they EXPRESSLY told her they weren't using it...

And since it is known that they HAVE used it, she is actually coming out now and calling those who briefed her liars...

These are the same agents that are supposed to have the politicians behind their back when it comes to defending this country...This shows that the CIA will NOT have politicians behind them, and, in fact, will be the very same ones they need to be wary of...

I can imagine the confidence of the CIA is at an all-time low...

Obamas take a walk, holding hands in the evening - Political Wrinkles

THIS is filed under "US Politics" at the Boston Herald...An Associated Press report...

That's right...Not Harlequin Romance...Not Danielle Steel...

Associated Press...doing that tough journalism they're so known for...

Chrysler won't repay bailout money - Political Wrinkles

Gone...out the window...Over 7 BILLION in taxpayer dollars...

To put this in perspective, anyone remember when Obama pushed his plan for his cabinet departments to save 100 million dollars?...

For those educated in the science of math, Obama will have to do that over 70 more times just to equal the amount of taxpayer money he just threw down the hole...

New Star Trek - Care? - Political Wrinkles

There's an umpteeth new Star Trek movie, but this time they're using new characters to play parts that were played by others in the past...

NAACP Branch Readies for Confederate Flag Fight - Political Wrinkles

Voltaire just did a triple somersault in his grave...

The Left Rediscovers Terrorism - Political Wrinkles

Funny...

When 6 Jewish women get shot by a Muslim in Seattle at a Jewish Center or a taxi driver tries to run down a couple of Vanderbilt college students, they were either "extremists" or "unstable" or it was simply just an isolated crime...No sign of "domestic terrorism" anywhere to be found by the politically correct and the media...

But this is a "RIGHT-winger"...That's different people...

Was this an act of terrorism?...ABSOLUTELY!

But I see the hypocrisy from the Left that will only suppress certain words until it benefits them politically.

Anyone expect the media to take Janet Napolitano's advice and call this a "man-caused disaster"?...

Whitacre Vows to Learn About Cars as GM Chairman - Political Wrinkles

So the executive who got elected with no executive experience hires someone to run a car company who knows nothing about cars...

Since he also hired a guy who couldn't even do his own taxes correctly to head the Treasury department, I can honestly say this does not shock me in the least...

Exhibit A for the prosecution of unions that have decided to do away with what's deserved and, instead, protect undeserving members to create an entitlement program...

Liberalism to a tee...

You KNOW you suck as president when you can't even please your own mental patients...

Justice concludes black voters need Democratic Party - Political Wrinkles

So the conclusion from the DoJ is that black people are so stupid they won't know which candidate represents their interests and can only do so if they know who the Democrat is, so the Department of Justice needs to swoop down and make sure black people don't screw themselves because of their ignorance...

Congress scrutinizes problems in homebuyer credit - Political Wrinkles

So the people that create taxpayer subsidized housebuying can't even attempt to do any oversight until AFTER fraudulant claims are found...

This is the same government that wants to be in charge of the nation's healthcare...

And more importantly (and moronic), there are people that agree...

Clean Coal? Not Here, Thanks - Political Wrinkles

This is a good example of how the environmental movement's REAL goal is to wipe out energy (and capitalism) in all forms...

For those counting, the WARNINGS of anti-Muslim backlash because of the Fort Hood tragedy is outnumbering the ACTUAL CASES of anti-Muslim backlash because of the Fort Hood tragedy by about 13 bazillion...

Some of us didn't need this report to know it, but hopefully it'll convince the undecideds that this is a simply horrible plan and the numbers being touted by the bill's supporters are crap...

Obama's Mistakes? What Mistakes? - Political Wrinkles

Bowing before other world leaders or various other "miscues" in the Obama World...Yeah, yeah, yeah...It's NOT the end of the world...

Once again, political corectness solving dandruff with decapitation...

It's Raining Polar Bears - Political Wrinkles

Personally, I'd like to see more ads like this...

These are so over-the-top/guilt-trip laden/propaganda crap that it probably turns the average person off and does the exact OPPOSITE effect they wish for...

This ad, pretty much, says "We're coo coo for Cocoa Puffs, and here's proof!"...

Census worker in Kentucky killed self, officials conclude - Political Wrinkles

When this guy was first found dead, the Left IMMEDIATELY speculated it was the Right's fault and smeared away in their delight of making this death a political advantage...

Now that the facts are out, we see that this guy was no victim of the Right, and, in fact, USED the Left's ill-conceived logic that the Right is advocating killing to FAKE his "homicide"...

I expect no retractions from the accusers...

Obama takes heat from Democrats over jobs - Political Wrinkles

Before anyone jumps up and gives the standard "Yeah, yeah...Bush did it all of the time, too." response, may I remind you that Bush did NOT say that he wasn't going to during his campaign...

But, by contrast, Obama DID repeatedly yell from highest mountain that this sort of behavior wouldn't happen during his presidency...

Reid kills Baucus-Grassley jobs bill - Political Wrinkles

Volcker: Taxes likely to rise eventually to tame deficit - Political Wrinkles

Palin Map Is the Most Guiltiest Thing In the World! - Political Wrinkles

Since the Left believes a picture from a political action committee has the power to control the actions of people (even though not one of them can show where Arizona Congresswoman shooter Jared Loughner has ever talked about the picture, recognized the picture, or even acknowledges the picture's existence), I've decided to take this time to show the equally logical things this "Palin map" is the cause of...

1) Ted Kennedy's brain cancer

2) Texas Rangers' collapse in World Series

3) Christmas fruitcake

4) The popularity of Justin Beiber

Forum Is As Strong As Ever - Political Wrinkles

As you know, I've been keeping the members updated when I renew this site with the host...I've been doing it in 6 month increments since its inception in October, 2007...

I'm happy to report that this time I renewed the site with the host for one full year...which is like 17 in forum years...

On top of that, the Political Wrinkles domain name was ending in 217 days, so I brought another 2 years for that...

I've never faltered on the commitment I have to this forum, and I have no intentions of doing so anytime soon...

So not only do I thank you for participating and joining or community, I also hope you'll have some comfort knowing that this site is on solid footing and will remain so for quite awhile...

But Walker Didn't Campaign On It!!! - Political Wrinkles

Did I say "Walker"?...I meant "OBAMA"...

Ever notice that the public unions and their supporters like to bring up the fact that Wisconsin Governor Walker didn't point out that he was going to end collective bargaining during his campaign?...

Of course, he didn't say he was NOT going to end it either, so I don't see where what he does is hypocritical...

But the union supporters love dem some Obamacare (when they're getting waivers for it, of course)...

But didn't Obama say...during HIS campaign that under HIS plan...that there will be no mandate forcing people to buy insurance?...

Unlike Walker, who didn't say anything about collective barganing for OR against, Obama actually DID come out and say he wasn't for mandates in the healthcare overhaul...Even called it the "genuine difference" between his plan for healthcare compared to his opponent Hillary Clinton...

What Exactly Is A Socialist? - Political Wrinkles

Being a socialist is not a definitive answer, but a range...

The second the government gives one penny to someone who didn't earn it and simply got it because of a "program", then that's TECHNICALLY a socialist move...Even the most stringest of capitalists believe that's fair for certain instances...

It's when that range supercedes the capitalistic view of revenue through economy that this becomes a problem...economic justice and social justice (and wealth redistribution) are socialist ideologies...

In a way, we're all socialists, but ONLY to the technical term...Actual socialists apply to reality, whereas most Americans do not...

Obama's Reagan Quote - Political Wrinkles

Hey Barry!...

Since you like to quote Reagan, why not throw out a few out a few more?...

Concentrated power has always been the enemy of liberty.

Government does not solve problems; it subsidizes them.

Government exists to protect us from each other. Where government has gone beyond its limits is in deciding to protect us from ourselves.

Government is like a baby. An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end and no sense of responsibility at the other.

Government's first duty is to protect the people, not run their lives.

Republicans believe every day is the Fourth of July, but the democrats believe every day is April 15.

The most terrifying words in the English language are: I'm from the government and I'm here to help.

The problem is not that people are taxed too little, the problem is that government spends too much.

Wall Street Protest Begins, With Demonstrators Blocked - Political Wrinkles

How bad has the New York Times gotten?...

For anyone with even peripheral knowledge of politics, they'd know that Lyndon LaRouche is not only NOT "right-wing", but is, in fact, a registered Democrat with multiple appearances on Democrat tickets...

But the New York Times doesn't want it to be known that other Democrats (no matter how loopy they are) are STILL DEMOCRATS...
