OLD JARHEAD 10/18/2012 CONSERVATIVE POLITICAL DIGEST


Old Jarhead's Political SitRep for October 18, 2012
Robert A. Hall

My initial take on the presidential debate
I'm writing this immediately afterwards, without reading what the pundits thought, or listening to the talking heads on TV. I'd rate it a draw. Not that Romney was bad, but that Obama was much better than the first debate, which will encourage his supporters, even though he channeled “Rude Joe” Biden a bit. Of course, I tend to discount much of what he says, just repeating already-refuted talking points, but doubtless liberals do that for Romney. I thought the moderator did a better job than I expected despite her obvious bias, but I felt the questions she picked were about two to one pro-Obama, at least. The one that infuriated me was the old canard that women make 72% of what men make. If you control the studies for hours worked, years of experience and education, that difference disappears. But if you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes the conventional wisdom. What she was saying was that women should get paid as much as more experienced, better educated men who work longer hours. Romney missed the chance to point out the disparity in the White House pay scale. Also I noticed that Obama got the second opening statement and the second closing statement. Not fair--in my debates, one candidate got to go last on the opening, one on the closing. It will be interesting to see what the polls say, rather than the spin from partisans. Of course, fact checkers on both sides will tear some of their statements apart, but I suspect the public ignores them.

Debate take—the morning after
Both sides spinning that their guy won, as expected. Watching the news, I had missed the moment when the moderator defended Obama—wrongly—on his Rose Garden comment about the Libya murders. Clearly put Romney off his game. Must have been getting more wine—the debates are not good for my diet. I saw a Nevada focus group of supposedly undecided voters who said Romney won. Most said they voted Obama in 08, were for Romney after the debate. You can’t make too much of this type thing, but it’s still encouraging. I also saw that despite his whining about time Obama spoke over three minutes more than Romney did, just as Biden spoke more than Ryan, but whined about his time.

IS THIS 'OBAMA'S OCTOBER SURPRISE?'


Get ready for the execution. Dire consequences in store for Americans. Obama set to put evil Executive Order 13603 into motion
URGENT: A few days ago we sent you a warning about a secret plan Obama and his one-world comrades are cooking up. Obama, “America’s Fraud President” is still planning the overthrow of all we hold dear, all that is constitutionally sacred and all that we believe in. How can this be?

Obama is about to order the execution of his Executive Order 13603. This is not an “if” but a “WHEN”!

Executive Order 13603 was recently uncovered by the Tea Party Research Team—it’s one of those stealth maneuvers America’s Fraud President likes to pull as he pulls the wool over the eyes of innocent Americans.

SILVER STATE CONFIDENTIAL 10/17/2012


DEBATE POST-ACTION REPORT

In last night’s slugfest between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama, give Obama the win in a split decision.  Not so much because he beat Romney, but because he was so much better than he was in the first debate when he stunk up the joint.

In the first debate, Romney stopped Obama’s momentum.  In this debate, Obama maybe stopped Obama’s skid.  Maybe not.

The biggest losers were sentient voters subjected to both a stupid debate format and a moderator, CNN’s Candy Crowley, who insisted on proving she wasn’t Jim Lehrer by repeatedly stopping the candidates from, you know, debating each other and, at one point, injecting herself as judge, jury and executioner.

Did the president call the attack on our Libyan embassy an act of terrorism in the Rose Garden the day after the attack?  Read the transcript and watch the video.  It’s, at the very least, arguable.  He did use the words “no acts of terror,” but it seems this was more of a general statement relating to the 9-11 anniversary than to the Benghazi attack specifically.

But that didn’t stop Crowley from declaring that Obama was right and Romney was wrong. No, Crowley was wrong.  She should have kept her mouth shut and let the candidates, the campaigns and the media determine who was correct and who wasn’t.

QUESTION IS:


Where Are The 5 Million “Green” Jobs You Promised, Obama?

Oct 17, 2012 01:28 pm

In Thursday night’s Vice Presidential debate, the Administration’s green agenda was, once again, part of the verbal sparring. The exchange ended with Congressman Ryan’s unanswered question: “Where are the 5 million green jobs…?” Moderator Martha Raddatz cut him off mid-question, steering the conversation elsewhere: “I want to move on here to Medicare and entitlements. I think [...]

NEVADA - FREEWAY SIGNS TO IRRITATE LIBERALS

MEMO TO: Conservatives in a Fighting Mood
FROM: Chuck Muth, Irritator-in-Chief
DATE: October 2012

("Mount Reagan," Nevada) - If you live in Clark County, you’ve no doubt noticed the growing number of electronic billboards along the highways.

Unlike the old-fashioned billboards of days gone by, these new-fangled hi-tech billboards rotate a series of digital messages every 7-8 seconds or so.

Which has the additional benefit of dramatically reducing the cost of advertising on these highway billboards…including the money saved by not having to print and install the old-fashioned glue-and-stick boards.

And with that in mind, I thought now might be an ideal time for a little public education/liberal irritation on some important public policy issues as people are paying more attention with Election Day drawing near. Which brings me to…

Operation Irritation!

At the suggestion of our friend George Harris, I’ve decided to run 3 public service messages on these new electronic billboards in the southern Nevada area during the two weeks of early voting, leading up to the Election Day.

The first message will read:

SHOCKING NEWS - 1/3rd OF PREGNANCIES RESULT IN ABORTION! THIS CANNOT BE!

Dear Conservatives, 

With only weeks remaining before the elections, you and I have an ongoing problem . . .

. . . wolves in sheep's clothing.

By that I mean politicians who come from pro-life districts, who talk pro-life, and who even vote pro-life . . . UNLESS their vote would make a difference saving lives.

These political "wolves" will protest that they are "personally opposed" to abortion.  Some have recently voted for some minor regulations of abortion.

Knowingly or not, they help the National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL) and Planned Parenthood in their deadly mission every bit as much as Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi.

These "wolves" are the politicians who work behind the scenes to bury any actions of any kind on the most realistic solutions to overturning Roe v. Wade . . .

. . . like passing a Life at Conception Act.

I pray that you will help me expose these "wolves in sheep's clothing" by signing your petition to Congress that I will link to in a moment.

AIKEN MUST WIN IN MISSOURI TO REMOVE HARRY REID FROM HIS SENATE CONTROL

Dear Conservatives, 

Our TV ads have been on the air for a week in Florida, Ohio, and West Virginia. 

And already, they're having a tremendous impact. 

In West Virginia, Democrat incumbent Joe Manchin held a press conference in response to our TV ads, calling me "callous" for simply exposing his big-spending record.

Even a member of my own Party joined the press conference by phone in support of Senator Manchin

And over the course of the weekend, dozens of national news outlets featured headlines and stories about our TV ads. 

Since the establishment is squealing over our TV ads, it means they're making an impact - which is why I've decided to expand our ad buy into the key battleground state of Missouri.

Can I count on you to make a generous contribution to our Double Down Money Bomb to help expand our ad buy into Missouri?

Morning Briefing
For October 17, 2012



1. At Best a Fleeting Tie for Obama. The Reality is a Cancer on His Campaign
I think Mitt Romney won the debate, but not by much. He flubbed a few good opportunities to really score decisive blows on the President, but definitely drew more blood. The CNN polling and CBS News polling confirm it. While more thought Barack Obama won the debate, largely because his last performance was so bad, clear majorities outside the margin of error thought Mitt Romney would be best on the economy, jobs, the deficit, etc. In fact, while other areas of the debate may overshadow this point, Romney deftly dispatched Obama on his economic record. That is the one issue that matters. It got so bad, Obama had to trot out Planned Parenthood and Big Bird.

Additionally, if you ever wondered who could be undecided at this point in the election, well now you know. Fear for the Republic. Why the debate commission thought it a good idea to go to Long Island, NY to hear from undecided voters in an area not considered a swing state is really beyond me.
