The president……  has apparently offered Israel sweeteners for delaying any strike against Tehran’s nuclear facilities until after the election. FromThe New York Post:

The President’s lack of concern for Israel is not disturbing, I take that for granted.  The President’s lack of concern for the USA also not disturbing.  The President’s utter lack of understanding of the country he has inflicted himself upon that disturbs me.   Why would President Obama imagine it will help him win re-election to hold Israel back?  Does Obama actually imagine the whole country hates Isreal as much as he does.

For this naked political calculation to work, Obama has to imagine Israel attacking Iran will hurt his re-election.  How is this possible?  I would imagine that whatever Israel does won’t effect the vote of 99% of Americans.  I can not imagine a country sitting around saying “well the economy stinks but I am going to vote for Obama unless Israel attacks Iran.”

To think like this Obama must not only hold Israel in contempt; he must hold the American voter in contempt.  On the other hand the American voter gave this incompetent, corrupt Chicago, Marxist the Presidency.  So the American voter is contemptible.

Oh and brat is the right word for future left-wing lawyer Fluke.  Not the “s” word or the “p” word or “wh” word.  The “s” word is a grown woman who says I don’t care what your rules are I am going to live my life as I see fit and handle the consequences.   You don’t have to respect their way of life to respect their freedom to live that way.    Someone whining to Congress that the World’s Second Oldest religion needs to pay for their choices doesn’t even deserve that much respect.

Meanwhile a point of order here.  It was just a year ago that the most pressing issue facing a country fighting three wars, with a trillion dollars in debt every year, a Senate that won’t pass a budget and a President who wants to lead from behind, was the funding of Planned Parenthood.  We had to fund Planned Parenthood because otherwise woman couldn’t afford birth control.  Planned Parenthood, which receives hundreds of millions from private donors AND the US Taxpayers, was absolutely essential so brats like Fluke could have “reproductive freedom.”   (Don’t get me stated on that leftist canard.)   Now of course with Planned Parenthood fully funded by the US taxpayers, that still isn’t enough.  There is so much canoodling going on this country millions in tax dollars can’t cover it and we have to force the Catholic Church to pony up.

So last year the taxpayers had to pay for other people’s birth control, and this year the Catholic Church has to pay for other people’s birth control and I assume next year we invade Canada and insist they start paying for our birth control.

Meanwhile Iran inches toward the bomb.

 And Republicans? They are busy debating the pros and cons of birth control

This is the same lie I heard from liberals this morning insisting that Republicans were using Freedom of Religion to stop “Women’s Rights.”

Republicans of course are trying to stop a government mandate that would require Religious organizations to pay for other people’s birth control and abortifacient.   No one is trying to ban the pill, no one is debating the pill.  Some Republicans just think it would be a good idea if everyone paid their own way.  Remember when libertarians were against government mandates?  Neither do I.  But the libertarian’s willingness to jump aboard this liberal lying bandwagon just proves how damaging pot is to the brain.

This is libertarianism?  Supporting Gov. Romney-care?  The man who thinks government should be in charge of every employer/employee relationship.  The man who thinks the government should force every adult to purchase health insurance.  The man who thinks the government should be involved in every medical decision made by doctor or patient.  This is the man “libertarians” want, because the thought of a social conservative makes their poor delicate libertarian hearts all a flutter.

Look I am not happy about Sen. Santorum’s record on spending.  He is a compassionate conservative, which Pres. Bush showed us means watch your wallet tax payer.  But he isn’t defending the indefensible of socialized medicine as Gov. Romney continues to do to this day.  Santorum is a compassionate Conservative, but he IS a Conservative.  Romney is, as I said, nothing a man of  no principles, whose only reason for going to DC is to “make Washington work.”  I don’t want Washington to work, I want Washington to get out of the way so the American people can get back to work.

None of this matters to “libertarians.”   Their love of liberty ends when social conservatives express Freedom of Speech.  They rallied to the genuine, unquestionably statist Obama in 08 and they will again, because What PJ O’Rourke said about liberals and liberty applies to libertarians as well.  ”The only freedom they want is the freedom to say bad words and put anything they want in their mouths.  It is the freedom of two year old.”

Which would be fine if we had a GOP nominee with a quad.  Gov. Perry’s job creation in the Great State of Texas should have been that quad.  But, as always seems to happen when a Texas Republican leaves Texas, Perry managed to bungle the only message the American people wanted to hear right now:  here’s how I created jobs in my state, here’s how I am going to create jobs in the United States.

Santorum is a compassionate conservative, and you can insert my eye roll here.  But Romney is not anything, not conservative, not liberal, he is a zero.  Obama is many things but mostly he is a man of principle.  Alas, they are the Marxist principles of one determined to punish the enemies of socialism.   But still they are principles.

We need a quad, we desperately need a quad.   I just don’t see anyone in the GOP with one.
