Wisconsin GOP Give Democrats Taste of their own Medicine with Election

Democrats are upset that the Associated Press declared Democrat Kloppenburg the winner for the Wisconsin Supreme Court and finding out later the Associated Press had to rescind the announcement. Ironically, Democrats are crying foul and blaming Republicans in stealing the election. There was an error, but there is a chance that the GOP incumbent David Prosser may win the election after all. This is karma for the GOP. Democrats stole the senatorial election for Al Franklin in Minnesota. Now, we can all it even.

Brief Excerpt from Rush Limbaugh Website

RUSH: In Wisconsin, the news media and the rest of the Democratic Party are all up in arms over the Wisconsin Supreme Court election. It turns out the initial numbers, which were reported by AP, as a courtesy, were not correct. Did you hear about this, Snerdley? It turns out that the Republican Justice David Prosser is actually more than 7800 votes ahead, which, of course, has infuriated the media. They thought they had this thing safely stolen, and then this clerk in Waukesha County forgot to count 14,000 votes. I read this and I said, "It's about time we got in this game." Normally it's the Democrats that are uncovering votes that they missed. And look at how the Democrats in the media are running around acting like stuck pigs. And they want an investigation of this woman. The problem is that this Republican clerk had a Democrat take a look everything she was doing all along the line and the Democrat said, "I'm sorry, but everything's legal here. Everything's aboveboard." That woman's chances for advancement in the Democrat Party are now kaput, (raspberry), bye-bye. But she said everything the Republican clerk did was legal.

There are some people upset that this incompetence on the part of the Republican clerk doesn't actually help, that it creates some of the controversy. I understand that. We could deal with that perhaps later in the program. But still, when I saw this, I have to tell you, all right! Just yesterday I gave a big monologue in how we're gonna have to learn to play the game the way they do, and, voila! Voila, we find 14,000 votes -- and ours are legitimate. So Justice Prosser way ahead by more than 7800 votes, the media going after this poor county clerk who didn't include one city's counts in what was sent to the AP. Now, never mind that there is no law saying that the AP should be told about the preliminary vote counts at all. They just do this as a favor to AP. Never mind that the AP should have noticed that the city's numbers were far too low. There was something about this that should have raised a red flag. But the bottom line here is the AP, the Democrats are furious that their candidate, Kloppenburg -- you know, I normally don't comment on people's names, but Kloppenburg, doesn't it sound like something you'd step in? Well, she did. She did step in it with a big victory speech out there and -- (interruption) oh, yeah. I mean they even got mock Harry Truman headlines, graphics on the newspapers.

Anyway, AP, Democrats furious that their candidate, Kloppenburg, they declared her the winner when she was a whopping 204 votes ahead, by the way, an insurmountable lead, of course, when you're the Democrat and you have a 204-vote lead. It's gonna be hard to find enough votes to make up the difference, but they're going to try. They're gonna bring in the Al Franken lawyer. They're gonna bring in the same lawyer that found the votes for Christine Gregoire in Washington and the same lawyer that found the votes for Franken in Minnesota. They're gonna bring in the same guy into Wisconsin here. So naturally the media is now doing everything they can to discredit the evil Republican county clerk, even though Democrat officials, as I said, have been looking over her shoulder every step of the way so that everything's been done completely on the up and up, but a scapegoat must nevertheless be found.

Sarah Palins Accomplishments Puts Other GOP Candidates to Shame

It is the start of the 2012 Presidential campaign season. The major players from the GOP are beginning to emerge into the spotlight. For those who know me, it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that I am a very big Palin supporter. Like myself, there are many supporter throughout the country who support Sarah Palin. However, there are many that are ignorant and misguided to accept her as a major contender in 2012. In fact, there are many who share a sexist mentality that a woman is not ready to lead a nation. I found a blog with facts about the accomplishments of Sarah Palin. It is a real eye opener for those who keeps ranting she is not presidential material.

(Conservative4Palin) One of the many memes the GOP establishment, the Left and the media try to stick to Governor Palin is that she is unqualified to be President if she chooses to run. With today being her 47th birthday, it’s odd that so many people think she is younger than thirty-five years old! So, in honor of her birthday, I’d like to share 47 reasons Governor Palin is qualified to be President above and beyond constitutional requirements. In no particular order:

1) She won’t perjure herself by taking the Presidential oath of office like many of her potential opponents.

2) She has 9 years of executive experience, more than 3 times as much as the current President. As Governor, she held the 2nd most powerful gubernatorial office in the country.

3)She knows how to budget. In her years as Governor, she reduced the state budget 9.5% over her predecessor and put $5 billion in state savings.

4) She reduced federal earmark requests 80% as Governor over her predecessor, recognizing the need for fiscal responsibility at both state and national levels.

5) She’s a proven reformer. She strove to break the bonds between Alaskan politicians and oil companies and passed sweeping ethics reform.

6) She believes in true governmental transparency. As Governor, she put the state checkbook online to allow constituents to know how and where the state was spending revenue. During the negotiations of one of the cornerstones of her administration, the Alaska Gasline Inducement Act (AGIA), all proposals were made available for public consumption.

7) In signing the AGIA legislation and the progress that continues to this day, she brought a transcontinental pipeline project from Alaska to the Lower 48 further than 30 years of previous administrations. AGIA is the largest private sector infrastructure project in North American history.

8 ) She believes in oversight not over regulation for energy development. She opened an Petroleum Integrity Office to oversee energy development in Alaska.

9) She believes in an all-of-the-above approach to energy development, including opening up ANWR, on shore drilling, off shore drilling, natural gas, coal, nuclear, and renewables.

10) She understands the effects of quantitative easing will have on the economy in general and on commodity prices specifically.

11) She would have the intestinal fortitude to actually take on reformation of entitlement programs to help derail the bullet train to bankruptcy.

12) For the role of the presidency, the Constitution devotes the majority of its text to the role of commander-in-chief. Governor Palin would take this role seriously as displayed by her commitment to America’s military and her desire for a strong national defense.

13) As part of her commitment to strong national defense, she criticized the Obama administration for making cuts to missile defense, and she stands strongly against the START treaty between Russia and America.

14) She has been firmly against Obamacare from the beginning of legislative talks and strongly supports repeal.

15) She truly sees America as an exceptional nation because of its people. She praises what makes America unique; she doesn’t apologize.

16) She puts principles above party and political expediency.

17) She has stood strongly for securing America’s borders, as shown by her support of Arizona’s immigration law.

18) She is strongly pro-life–a welcomed far cry from the most pro-abortion president in history now occupying the White House.

19) She supports human rights, particularly speaking out against the human rights abuses in China, Iran, and amongst peoples who embrace Sharia law.

20) With regard to foreign policy, she has a far better grasp situation in Egypt with regard to the potential of the Muslim brotherhood’s involvement in a new government and Mubarak’s plans better than members of President Obama’s intelligence team, Leon Panetta and James Clapper.


21) She actually had private sector experience that would enable her to understand what it takes to make payroll and budget within one’s means, unlike the majority of members of the Obama administration.

22) She’s a strong advocate for the 10th amendment, showing she understands not only the balance of powers between the branches of the federal government, but also between the federal and state governments.

23) She shows grace under fire. In spite of having accusations of blood libel launched against her, she stood strongly and gracefully for the victims of the shooting in Tucson and for the freedom of open political discourse.

24) Beyond her political achievements and strong conservative stances, she has character. In spite of two and a half years of a constant barrage of ethics complaints, smears, lies, and media misrepresentation, she has remained strong.

25) She has the ability to communicate with people across the spectrums of age, education, and background. She’s just as comfortable speaking to with businesspeople in Hong Kong as she is speaking to GOP supporters in California or pro-life advocates in Indiana.

26) She stands strongly with America’s allies, like Israel.

27) The American people stand with her on the issues more than they do the current president.

28) She has already taken on the Establishment in Alaska and won.

29) She lives America’s motto — in God we trust.

30) She ticks off all the right people.

31) She believes that shrinking government expands individual freedom.

32) She understands the threats of countries like Iran.

33) She understands the difference between separation of church and state and separation of God and state.

34) As Governor, she forward funded education, giving schools greater flexibility and predictability in their planning.

35) She was prescient of the
Obama administration’s plans and policies as far back as September of 2008, and she can effectively reverse these policies.

36) She is a firm advocate of freedom of speech, even standing up for those who have denigrated her.

37) She knows how to respond to the largest environmental disaster in our nation’s history, unlike our current president.

38) She believes America needs to restored, not fundamentally transformed.

39) She has the optimism of Reagan with the tenacity of Thatcher.

40) With Governor Palin as President, the era of big government would really be over.

41) She doesn’t believe in identity politics or put people in a box. She sees individual Americans, not voting blocs.

42) She’s an American first, conservative second, and Republican third.

43) She speaks from the heart, not a teleprompter.

44) She is a leader, not a politician.

45) She believes in developing a strong work ethic.

46) She learns from others who have been at the other end of the political and religious spectrum–Reagan was a former Democrat, Thomas Sowell is a former Marxist, and C.S. Lewis was a former atheist.

47) She’s not afraid to go rogue.
