The Democrats are now the party of lies and distortions. Obama is a
dumbed down puppet for the Black Panthers and Muslim Brotherhood, so how
can Americans believe anything put out by the media? Hillary knownly
lied about Benghazi in the nfirst place, so why should we believe
anything about the Obutt Administration. Fake president, fake marriage,
fake straight male, who is very gay, fake intellectual, can’t even give
an oration without Rev. Whrites sing-song preacher voice. The Obutts
are lazy, greedy sewer rats from the gang infested, thug environment of
southside Chicago where they partied and breathed the same views as anit
American Bill Ayers. Why would I think that theses two grifters in the
White House would lead America in the right direction or serve America
with pride and loyalty? I don’t believe one word that comes out of any
Democrats mouth or the media. I am a registered Democrat and will never
ever vote that ticket ever again!!

2012 San Diego County Credit Union Poinsettia Bowl Benefiting The Make A Wish Foundation.
BYU Vs San Diego State.
Announcers Carter Blackburn and Rod Gilmore so I may need my headache pills.
It's been a heavy troll day over at Newshounds. If they leave some goodness I will post it in Bold like this

I didn’t realize my comments were immortalized by the left. Gee you guys must be bored never having to defend your fraud-n-chief. Why no comments about the 600 blacks murdered in Chicago? Where has Obama been? It’s his community that’s being disorganized. A fraud and liar.
Oh Joy and racist Jemelle Hill on the sidelines.
It's 20 degrees and there are 7 inches of snow on the ground so why not watch some football?
Unlike San Diego State BYU game of yore this one is going to have lots of running and defense. SD State has alread thrown a pick and BYU just almost threw one.
Kind of a shame there are so many empty seats with San Diego State playing at home.
What the world needs now is guns more guns. That's just one thing there's just too little of.-Tomorrow's NRA Press conference.
OK where is the flag on BYU? With what I have seen called on Nebraska how that is not a penalty?
And there is a field goal. 3-0 San Diego State.
And Gilmore and Blackburn start to bring the suck.
Lynn Braddy commented
Ellen, are you afraid to put your last name to this tripe you write?
Right now San Diego State is gouging BYU on the ground.
Time for some Bronco Mendenhall dick slobbering by Blackburn, Gilmore and Hill. That Bronco Mendenhall is such a great guy.
If this game continues like this BYU will be dragging ass in the 4th quarter.
Back to Bronco Mendenhall. It is so great that a coach nobody else wants is so pure about looking at other coaching jobs.
San Diego State is really out playing BYU but they aren't taking advantage of it so far...but they go for it on 4th down and they pick it up.
You know if the Apocalypse happened now, it is the 21st in some places I would go watching football what are the odds?
Well another field goal for SDSU. 6-0. But they should be ahead by much more.
No Carter Blackburn you ARE NOT calling the Holiday Bowl.
Carter Blackburn thinks Bronco Mendenhall is Brad Pitt. I am not making this shit up.

No points for San Diego State. They should be ahead 21-0 and they are up 6-0. Will they rue it later?
BYU has some offense! 38 yard pass down to the 6 yard line. 9 seconds left.
And of course BYU has to settle for a field goal which they make. 6-3 San Diego State at halftime. San Diego State should be ahead much more.
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ Uk huh what? BYU blocked a punt.
BYU going for it on 4th and 10.
Why do you call a timeout to punt?
If San Diego State can score a TD this game is over.
BYU is on something of a drive. if you notice I haven't been updating it's because this game sucks.
And BYU's drive fizzes.
And it's 6-3 San Diego State after 3.
With the score 6-3 and SDSU having to punt from it's own end zone Rod Gilmore thinks the door is open for BYU.
BYU gets to the San Diego State 3 yard line and SDSU get an interception at the goal line. that might be the game.
OK why in the blue hell did SDSU call a pass play there? Why? Why? Why?
The call on the field stands! So thanks to some really shitty play calling the BYU Cougars are now up 10-6 in a game SDSU should be up by at least 14 points.
I hope these 3 stooges talk about how the head coach of one of the greediest universities in America is so against greed.
OK San Diego State is just imploding now.
And of the fumble another BYU touchdown.
And a game that San Diego State dominated for 3 quarters and didn't score is now 16-6. BYU missed the PAT.
Oh Carter Blackburn fuck you and your damn fight songs.
Oh for fucks sake catch that.
And now I am eating my cold cut from Subway.

Hey Joseph, can you prove you’re not George Soros? More probably, you
are David Brock, Media Matters idiot. Or you might be the father or son
that was stalking Palin. Or maybe you are that Cornell kid that hacked
Sarah’s email account. Liberals are good at skirting the law. Isn’t it
interesting that we’ve been able to read Palins 59,000 pages of Alaskan
emails and we’ve yet to see Obamas transcripts, visa, college loan
activity. college admission requirements. Obama is a fraud and liar.
And I wake up and San Diego State intercepts a pass and returns it for a touchdown but...block below the waist so SDSU gets the ball but not the Touchdown. A score here is already huge. BYU isn't going to score much in this game.

Oh by the way all the people in Massachusetts are liberals, just sayin.
I’ll be back next year when all you liberals are washing dishes at
Dennys, and shaking salt on the fries at McDonalds. Can’t wait for
Clinton to recover from her fake concussion and give us the truth on
Libya, although she’ll probably say I don’t recall. I hope you guys make
it through tomorrow so we can continue our discussion in 2013.
One thing BYU has done really well tonight is punt the ball inside the San Diego State 5 and keep them backed up.
Goodnight thank you for participating.BYU intercepts and runs the ball back for a touchdown.
And San Diego State throws another interception. Did he catch it? Do you care? I don't.
NO interception.
OK another Interception and this one counts.
And BYU in the victory formation 23-6 BYU. Uh...great game.

You liberals suck.Thanks for Obamacare. My insurance went up $2500 and
we haven’t even hit the tax part of it, which will hit next year.Gets
Obama, or sorry Osama, and forgets to protect our Ambassador in Libya.
Real smart. Blacks are dying left and right in Chicago, but I guess
that’s not important to address. It’s like a war zone, 600 killed this
year alone.You mean saved the unions. He was against the surge or he
wouldn’t have anything to end. 4,000 killed in Afghanistan under his
watch. Shameful. I’m paying for the dreamers Liberals are frauds an
liars.

You’re not going to follow up with the unedited video? Not room for
the whole truth around here? I understand. You guys wanted the
unedited tape because you said it contained something horrible that he
didnt want see; now its out and you guys want ignore it. But what
should we expect? There was also the line that since he didnt get the
law involved it meant he was at fault; then he gets the law involved and
that part is ignored too. But still you guys will say the attack was
justified for some twisted reason. And blaming FOX news for this mans crimes is as asinine as blaming video games for teen violence.
Here’s the difference between me and you guys; I would never defend
these comments. I wouldnt find some way to validate their comments and I
sure wouldnt do everything I could to justify their actions. These
people should be banned for posting crap like that.
I completely understand. O’Reilly is a bad guy doing a bad thing. He
threatened Mexico by saying there would be hell to pay. He’s a bad, bad
person.
@mj:
Excusing hatred by pointing out others hatred is childish. I would
never defend anyone who posts the kind of hatred that is posted here or
there.
So what happened to the HotDog vendor is ok because he should have
known it was going to be a hostile situation? This whole situation is
amazing. The only people on video assaulting people are Union thugs.
The only people using racist slurs against the hotdog vendor are Union
thugs. But in the end, its the hotdog vendors fault for putting himself
in that situation and its Crowders fault for being assaulted because he
deserved it. And what does the left do? Find a reason to justify the
violence and hatred coming from the Union thugs. Amazing.
Where did I say i was laughing at you? Talk about “skewing” the news…
Did Crowder admit to pushing this man? Is there video evidence that
shows Crowder pushing this man? Thats a no and a no. If Crowder had
pushed this man then why hasnt anyone on the left come out and proven
it? Why isnt the guy in the video defending himself on every cable show
from MSNBC to CNN?
If Crowder is the perp in this we would know by now; the liberals would
make damn sure of that. For the last time, show me video evidence of
Crowder pushing the man down.
Again, actual evidence that he pushed him. The tape does not show
Crowder pushing him. No where on there does it show Crowder pushing
him. You’re making assumptions. Wouldnt the guy be all over MSNBC
right now if Crowder had pushed him? Wouldnt the guy be pressing
charges or at the least making the rounds of the liberal news orgs to
tell his side of the story if he was pushed first? You know he would.
Again, there is no evidence that Crowder pushed the guy. You guys are
filling in the blanks with what you want to believe.
Lot of you seem more worried about a screen name (its the name of my
minature poodle) than one of your own condoning violence against people
who disagree with you. Amazing.

How About Some Priorities America?
Do I have some questions about Homosexuality? Honestly? Yes. Especially in men but I am sure there are things that I do that a homosexual man would also question and rightly so. Bottom line. Who ever anybody chooses to love or marry is their business and has no effect on my life. NONE! The fact that there was a shooting in my nephew's high school that left a popular vice principal dead and the fact that 9 people got killed in one of my cities shopping malls does.

The View From My Ass
And now My final thought.
I dislike Mitt Romney. OK maybe that isn't fair I've never met the man but given what the man has to say when the camera isn't on him and what he has to say when the camera is it's fair to say I dislike him. But I don't need to look for reasons to dislike the man.
Saturday he attended the Pacquiao-Marquez fight and to his credit was in the arena before the first fight of the PPV portion of the card. If he were there to see and be seen he would have done what the other "celebrities" do at these events. Take his seat sometime between the Mexican National Anthem and round 3.
Yes as some liberals pointed out there was a non existent reaction the former Presidential candidate taking his seat at the event. But how can there be any other kind of reaction when the only other people in the arena are Snooki, her fighter, the other fighter, the announcers and Metta World Peace?
I dislike Mitt Romney. I do not dislike him for attending and having good seats to a big boxing event in Las Vegas. The fact he was there and more importantly there EARLY might be the most likable thing I have seen or heard from the man.
I would advice against falling in to the Conservative trap of making an issue out of every little thing a politician we dislike does. Yes Mitt went to the fights Saturday, Yes Mitt pumped his gas on a windy day and yes Mitt is a douchebag but not at all for the things I just mentioned. Give public, Presidential candidate, Mitt all the hell you want to for Binders full of women. But give private Mitt a pass for going to a fight. Unless you don't mind being lumped into the same crowd as the people with terminal ODS.
Take care of yourself, and each other!

Ann Coulter - The Voice of Reason!?
When Ann Coulter - the mean-spirited, black-heated she-demon from Connecticut, sees the writing on the wall and tells Sean Hannity that the GOP has to take President Obama's plan for avoiding the fiscal cliff, you know the Republican party is in dire straights.

Skyfall 2012
Right or wrong the new trend in movies is for dark and cloudy plots that have you leaving the theater feeling as sorry for every wrong you've ever committed against a fellow human being. Where as once we went to the theater to escape Wolf Blitzer and CNN Now we go to the theater to see Wolf Blitzer and CNN.
Skyfall is grand theater very well done and hugely entertaining. But its not escapism. That is no fault of the film. Escapism is simply just not in vogue anymore and The Broccoli's quite correctly want to give the public what is currently in and is going to make money. Just look at the reaction to the last truly escapist James Bond adventure Die Another Day and it's easy to see why they are not going back down that road anytime soon.
James Bond himself in Skyfall isn't even a man we fantasize about being anymore. He's dirty, with a beard and a hangover. He's now a Man many of us actually know. It's great he's human I guess and It's what we seem to want but I can't help feeling we're missing something along the way.
Trust me I loved the film. I rank it 4th behind On Her Majesty's Secret Service, Casino Royale 2006, and From Russia With Love. And I can see that ranking going up even from this lofty perch. Wasn't it great to see a psychotic villain again? You know one that actually put some fear in to you? No Offense to Le Chiffre or Dominic Green but those guys didn't exactly make you want to shake in your boots. Give me a full fledged lunatic anytime. Oddly enough it was the crazy Javier Bardem who brought along any "escapism" Skyfall possessed.
Much like QOS there is not a real Bond Woman in this one (perhaps more so than even QOS) but no Bond Woman is better than a bad Bond Woman. In-fact again the closest you get to a Bond woman is once again Judith Dench who has performed the role of M above and beyond anybodies wildest dreams. One would have to be a sexist on a grand scale to not acknowledge her greatness in the role.
One criticism of QOS that I didn't necessarily agree with is that it didn't feel like a Bond film. Skyfall most certainly does. Along with the return of old characters the puns even made a bit of a comeback this time around. As dark as the film was there was some humor in the film perhaps more so than recent outings. And the acting for the most part was pretty solid, Not a given in a Bond Pic even I'll admit.
The nods to older films and novels in Skyfall worked much more seamlessly than they did in Die Another Day. for one thing they didn't come at you every 5 minutes like they did in DAD. The back story of James Bond's childhood comes, with some changes, from the books. The Aston Martin was an ode to Goldfinger and *spoiler* even some nods to From Russia With Love and other classic films.
So Another Bond picture and another success. At the end of the film we were told James Bond will return and God willing I'll be in the theater. paying $5.25 (or more by then) for a drink and sitting through previews of bad sitcoms and 7 movie trailers I care nothing about. BTW after paying what a ticket cost, + concessions and then having to sit through a preview for the new season of Cougar Town is it any wonder we're going to the theater less and less?
Skyfall **** 1/2 / *****

The View From My Ass
For about 23 minutes about in the 80's? 90's? 00's? I attended the
University of Nebraska Omaha, Or if you prefer UNO or if you are tired
of your team being treated like you are Nebraska-Lincoln's little
disabled brother just plain Omaha.
I am not a fan of the schools athletics and haven't been since they beat Augustana in football and then decided to bill themselves as "Omaha's" football team a ludicrous motto made even more so by the fact that Omaha loved UNO football so much it stood by and let out a collective yawn when it was announced Omaha's football team was a football team no more. Omaha , are you happy Trev? decided to move it's sports program up to division 1 a move which brought about the death of the football program.
The better competition level coupled with the fact that UNO was moving into the brand new Ralston Arena was enough reason for me to purchase season tickets to UNO Basketball. My seats are at end of a side but on Row A the front row. The Mascot often makes the rounds in front of us getting high fives and trying to get the crowd going. Kids often come down with their parents to high-five or hug the mascot which I have no issue with. I am on an isle and it can be done with out interfering with the crowd. Friday the crowd was officially 2200 people and using my own judgement I would say that was about right. Tonight they could not have had 500 people in the arena. BUT...
The national anthem was song by kids from an elementary school. They were little, cute and hell Steven Tyler couldn't have sang the national anthem as well as they did in his best dreams. But after they sang they apparently had no adult supervision. If there was any they were no where to be found. Shortly after halftime The little...um...shits began to congregate in row A. section 116. The only other two people in the row with me gave up 3 minutes into the half and left. I waited a few more minutes until the crowd of children got larger and larger, their screams got louder an louder and their behavior got worse and worse. I finally gave up and moved 4 rows. The "security" a 60+ year old man sitting on the floor sat there with his fist up his ass and did not a thing.
Midway through the second half a UNO player directly in front of the congregation of little shitkickers suffered a serious injury and fell to the court but before doing so he kicked the ball Into the stands with his good leg picking up a Technical foul and nearly doing the world a favor as it came with in inches of taking out about 5 kids. Friday I politely cheered on both teams as honestly I didn't care who won but by the second half tonight I was so disgusted with the kids and the lack of adult supervision I was solidly rooting for St. Mary and will root for UNO from here on out.
UNO: Judging by the crowd tonight people aren't beating down doors to see your product and if tonight was any indication of what kind of experience the costumer can expect they won't be anytime soon. Nobody wants to spend good money (UNO tickets are more expensive than UNL Tickets) to watch 10 year old children take a break from accidentally kicking you to run around and scream.
Parents or Adult supervision: Where were you? Don't tell me you were keeping an eye on kids. I was looking around to the other people in the stands and the few that were there were texting on their cellphones the whole damn game. The one time I saw a parent a Mother came down and told her daughter they were leaving with about 7 minutes left to go. The kid said No I am staying until the end. The Mother turned around I shit you not and sat back down. I find it nearly unconscionable in a time when you are forever hearing about kids being abducted, kidnapped, and raped that parents or adult supervisors, (there had to be somebody from the school right?) Would allow the children to run around at a public event unsupervised .But hey if you had watch your kids then you couldn't bullshit with your friends over beers and text your buddies right? Just because they're your kids doesn't mean they have to ruin your enjoyment of the game. Let them ruin somebody elses.
Oh as for the game? St. Mary 96 UNO, Nebraska-Omaha, Omaha 86. Kinda sweet Justice don't ya think?

I am not a fan of the schools athletics and haven't been since they beat Augustana in football and then decided to bill themselves as "Omaha's" football team a ludicrous motto made even more so by the fact that Omaha loved UNO football so much it stood by and let out a collective yawn when it was announced Omaha's football team was a football team no more. Omaha , are you happy Trev? decided to move it's sports program up to division 1 a move which brought about the death of the football program.
The better competition level coupled with the fact that UNO was moving into the brand new Ralston Arena was enough reason for me to purchase season tickets to UNO Basketball. My seats are at end of a side but on Row A the front row. The Mascot often makes the rounds in front of us getting high fives and trying to get the crowd going. Kids often come down with their parents to high-five or hug the mascot which I have no issue with. I am on an isle and it can be done with out interfering with the crowd. Friday the crowd was officially 2200 people and using my own judgement I would say that was about right. Tonight they could not have had 500 people in the arena. BUT...
The national anthem was song by kids from an elementary school. They were little, cute and hell Steven Tyler couldn't have sang the national anthem as well as they did in his best dreams. But after they sang they apparently had no adult supervision. If there was any they were no where to be found. Shortly after halftime The little...um...shits began to congregate in row A. section 116. The only other two people in the row with me gave up 3 minutes into the half and left. I waited a few more minutes until the crowd of children got larger and larger, their screams got louder an louder and their behavior got worse and worse. I finally gave up and moved 4 rows. The "security" a 60+ year old man sitting on the floor sat there with his fist up his ass and did not a thing.

The Winner And Still...
President Of The United States...
Update by Mr. Brown: The folks over at Blogs For Victory are taking it well...
Update By The Count: Sorry for the lack of Live Blogging tonight but obviously it's been a great night. It looks like it will end up 332-206 For Obama. Though Florida won't be called until tomorrow. The final popular vote will be close but that is not the way we elect the President our system blows. However the President will also claim a small victory there.

Election 2012 The Prediction Thread
The Count: I have faith in the majority of American people that they will do the right thing.I don't have nearly the faith in the vote counters. we are already seeing the bull shit being pulled in Ohio and Florida. I am the kind a person that feels very confident about about an event until it gets close then I get nervous. I am nervous about this election again from the stand point of who is counting the votes. I don't see any kind of a landslide in terms of national or electoral votes. If Romney wins it's razor thin. If Obama wins I think predictions of 332-206 are a little wide.
My prediction: I like Obama by 3 to 4% nationally and 290-248 electoral vote 2012 Presidential Election: Electoral Map: This map displays the projections of the sender and does not reflect the opinions of 270toWin.
Mr. Brown: Originally, I was going with 290, same as The Count, but maybe Obama can win both Colorado and Virginia, so i'm going to say 303 electoral votes, with Obama winning 2% nationally.

Thursday Night Football: Chargers vs. Chiefs - The Ultimate Catch-22
Tonight, one of these two coaches will be gone by the end of the week: Will it be Romeo Crennel, the head coach of the Kansas City Cheifs, a team most pundits consider to be the worst in the NFL? Or will San Diego HC Norv Turner's head finally roll? I've been a long-time Chargers fan and I can safely say two things: 1.) That the Monday Night game vs. Denver and last week's road loss to Cleveland are the worst games I have ever seen played by Phillip Rivers and Co. Rivers self-destructed in the second half against Peyton Manning, a non-catch by Robert Meachem and an early fumble by RB Ryan Matthews burned San Diego last Sunday to the dismal Browns, coupled with a weak Offensive Line, a less-than explosive receiving core, and a terrible secondary (with the exception of S Eric Weddle) have put San Diego in the shit at 3-4. 2.) O hope San Diego wins tonight. I might not care for Turner (hell, I thought it was the height of stupidity for General Manager AJ Smith to fire Marty Schottenheimer after a 14-2 season), but I don't have it in me to root for my home team to lose and have the head coach get bounced out on his ass. Yes, Norv Turner isn't a head coach in the NFL - he's more of an Offensive Coordinator and he's damn good at what he did with Troy Aikman and the Cowbows offense when they won back-to-back Super Bowl titles in '92 and '93. But I won't cheer for a Chiefs victory, just to spite Norv. On the flip side, should the Chargers win, Norv saves his job for another week and chances are Crennel gets canned, and fans aren't too happy with Romeo either. Tonight, we'll see who's left standing moving forward.

Harry Reid waist our tax money protecting him. They can not even drive
proper in Las Vegas, gambling tilting the bottle and womanizing.
WoW so many wrecks in his family for some reason maybe like him Alzheimer’s driving? Falls down all the time can not function with out assistance off a stage or STUTTERS all the time trying to remember what to say?
Investing profiting millions off blood money in war arms that were used on Americans is a bad idea?
