“Well, we’re not allowed to don our stormtrooper clothes and break a few windows in Golders Green so we will do our best to f*ck Israel and that will be a big smack in the eye against Jews, he he! Its GREAT. I can say what I like and then when they accuse me of Antisemitsim I can say that you ALWAYS say that when I criticise Israel”

Andrew says: Needless to say the Guardian, the Independent and the BBC are having a good bash as well.

Actual observations trump computer models and as we learn more about the Earth we start to realize how puny and irrelevant man’s contribution to climate change really is. While irresponsible environmentalists panic over warming, the Earth cools and goes with the ocean flow.

Andrew says: Alas, people like Al Gore probably won’t take any notice of these facts. Not like he and his kin have ever let them get in the way before.

A couple of new anti-Obama web videos are previewing what could be likely avenues of attack from Republican communications strategists in upcoming months—exploiting voters’ fear of the unknown.

Andrew says: I was wondering when Obama supporters would start whingeing about videos done about their bloke. Its not like the left hasn’t been hammering the right with vicious videos for that last 8 years. And can you imagine was the left is going to do against McCain?

Those morons in Code Pink are casting spells against the Marines in a protest. Do these pinheads realise what the regimes they are condoning do to non-Muslims unbelievers especially pagans. I am betting some of my conservative pagans mates will not be terribly happy. They get annoyed at the assumption that all pagans/wiccans are leftie tree-hugging loons.

With any luck the spells will backfire on the Code Pink loons…Code Pink toads anyone?

He could use a good history lesson as well judging from his recent comments.

Mike Huckabee offered a strange analysis of national priorities at a conference on diabetes in Washington. He told the audience that diabetes presents a bigger threat to Americans than terrorism, which is both true and utterly pointless at the same time. He also underscored the suspicion which Republican primary voters had about his nanny-state tendencies (via JWF):

Surely this is a bit offensive to all those who have died as result of terrorism?

Decent writer…political idiot. Either that or he does not engage brain before he speaks.

American Thinker:

She is the biggest loose cannon in either campaign. She’s got a chip on her shoulder the size of a redwood and an overweening sense of entitlement that makes her one of the more unattractive advocates for Barack Obama – despite the fact that she’s his wife.

Michelle Obama is a disaster waiting to happen. Unless Obama sends her on a very long cruise or tries hiding her in a closet until after the election, there is little doubt in most observer’s minds that she will eventually, detonate a bomb or two that will require major damage control.

A group is trying to force Maine politicians to stop taxing the hell out of them. A tax revolt is happening in Maine and its well worth supporting. Maine’s spending and taxation is out of control driving everyone out of the state. It has to stop and this might just help.

What the hell is he thinking? The Corner has more about this rather troubling decision.

I was impressed with McCain’s speech on judicial appointments however. Its show a great contrast with his opponents and reassures the base. Activist judges are a scurge in the US (and the UK for that matter) and must be prevented from attaining the highest legal office in the land.

Armed police have been shot at after being called to an incident off King’s Road in Chelsea, west London. It followed reports of gunshots in Markham Square around 4.50pm. They came under fire at the scene and a police spokesman confirmed that officers fired back.

He heads straight back to New York in December 1922 and throttles an infant Stan Lee before he can grow up and create Spiderman, The Fantastic Four, X-Men, The Hulk and so many more. Mankind is saved from a twilight cinema world of dire superhero films…

Andrew says: Leonard does a good line in patronising rubbish ala Obama. Superhero films are popular therefore their rubbish. Perish the thought Hollywood actually makes movies people like to go see.

Richard Barnes, the Conservative Leader in London, has told the BNP that they will have problems finding secretaries and support staff in the London Assembly and that they won’t be forcing admin staff to do their jobs.

Andrew says: This would be incredibly stupid of the Tories in the assembly to do. Are they trying to give the BNP more publicity? Petty moves like this are just foolish and counterproductive. This also feeds into the BNP mindset that they and their voters are being shut out by the establishment.

These sorts of ideas are why the BNP got more than 5%.

He will press for the Union Jack to be flown permanently over City Hall, for burkas to be banned from public buildings and for official celebrations to mark St George’s Day. He will resist the planned construction of a huge new mosque, the biggest place of worship in Britain, in Newham, East London.

One thing about neo-Nazis is they know how to be populist and talk out of both sides of their mouths. I bet that if you said the above to many people without mentioning the BNP they would agree.

If you want to quell the BNP vote then politicians need to address the issues of the most disenfranchised grouping in Ken’s London…the white working class. They need to be address and made to feel as though people in city hall are actually listening to them. Under Ken any criticisms of his policies were met with charges of one or more isms. The bullying and intimidation of working class whites was palpable.

A city hall sponsored St George’s Day parade would be a very good start.

Boris needs to be a mayor for all Londoners not just the ones who bitch the loudest or have the pushiest representatives.

Pushing the BNP vote under the carpet is not the answer.

A notable stories of recent months should have been the evidence pouring in from all sides to cast doubts on the idea that the world is inexorably heating up. The proponents of man-made global warming have become so rattled by how the forecasts of their computer models are being contradicted by the data that some are rushing to modify the thesis.

This is Peter Hitchens’ Mail on Sunday column Why is the Left-wing BBC trying so hard to persuade us that the Tories are on the way back? Why do you think? Because the Tories have become Left-liberals, like the BBC….

Andrew says: I got to agree with Hitchens here. The Tories did not do anywhere as well as it first appears if you really look at the statistics and the results. The hard-left’s frothing about the Boris win is rather fun to watch however.

You have Obama imploding because of his religious affiliations. The economy is not in recession, in fact, there have been 6 months of positive growth. We all know the only way for the Democrats to win in November is to convince Americans the country is in recession whether or not its true.

Oh yes and to cap things off there are reports from scientists that in fact the world is cooling not warming.

Add to this this food shortages in the world due to the daft biofuel frenzy. Not affecting the US , of course, but the rest of the world; you know the people the left bang about all the time.

Pretty much this lot are just wrong on all counts and there is more proof of this every day. Expect them to ignore the facts and continue on blindly.

Watching them all squirm is just so much fun.
