Hummers May Be Discontinued; Bill Clinton Concerned

General Motors announced that, among other things, they may no longer make Hummers in the future.

Upon hearing the news, former President Bill Clinton said that he was not concerned and that "alternate plans" are in place.  When told that they were talking about a car, President Clinton simply said, "Oh."

CEO Rick Wagoner said Tuesday before the automaker's annual meeting the plants to be closed are in Oshawa, Ontario; Moraine, Ohio; Janesville, Wis.; and Toluca, Mexico. He also said the Hummer brand may be discontinued.

Hillary on the Campaign Trail

hillary_shaking_fist

  1. "It's my money and I need it now!!!"  Hillary Clinton watches one too many J. G. Wentworth commercials.
  2. Senator Clinton shows the audience how she responded when Bill asked her to "do a Monica".
  3. Hillary tries to relate to West Virginia voters by demonstrating how they harvest Rocky Mountain Oysters in Arkansas.
  4. Though she never quite mastered Bill's "I feel your pain" gesture, she never stopped trying.
  5. Hillary Clinton demonstrates her idea for the new game, "Wii Dentist"

Even the AP Piles on Hillary Liar-Clinton

There's a great story from the Associated Press taking Bill Clinton to task for lying about his wife's lies and then lying himself:

"A lot of the way this whole campaign has been covered has amused me," Bill Clinton said in Boonville, Ind. "But there was a lot of fulminating because Hillary, one time late at night when she was exhausted, misstated and immediately apologized for it, what happened to her in Bosnia in 1995.

"Did y'all see all that? Oh, they blew it up," the former president continued. "Let me just tell you. The president of Bosnia and Gen. Wesley Clark—who was there making peace where we'd lost three peacekeepers who had to ride on a dangerous mountain road because it was too dangerous to go the regular, safe way—both defended her because they pointed out that when her plane landed in Bosnia, she had to go up to the bulletproof part of the plane, in the front. Everybody else had to put their flak jackets underneath the seat in case they got shot at. And everywhere they went they were covered by Apache helicopters. So they just abbreviated the arrival ceremony.

"Now I say that because, what really has mattered is that even then she was interested in our troops," he said. "And I think she was the first first lady since Eleanor Roosevelt to go into a combat zone. And you would of thought, you know, that she'd robbed a bank the way they all carried on about this. And some of them when they're 60 they'll forget something when they're tired at 11 o'clock at night, too."

After the writer catalogs each and every lie and mistake in the above piece, the cherry on the sundae is how Hillary's spokesman responded:

Clinton campaign spokesman Phil Singer responded to the former president's remarks Friday by saying, "Senator Clinton appreciates her husband standing up for her, but this was her mistake and she takes responsibility for it."

Translation:  "We all wish Bill would shut up and stop making things even worse."

Would Hillary Clinton Vote for President Willie Nelson?

It's no secret that HRC thinks her 8 years as First Lady of the USA and her 7 years as a US senator gives her enough foreign affairs experience to be President of the United States (POTUS).  It's not even in dispute that she has garnered this so-called experience by virtue of her extensive travel on behalf of her husband, rapist-in-chief Bill Clinton.  By this standard, Michael Reagan claims that he would be qualified as well, but I think Willie Nelson is a much better choice because he's the only popular native-born American who has been everywhere:

I've been everywhere, man
I've been everywhere, man

Arkansas: Slick to the left of me, slick to the right of me!

Mike Huckabee scares me on a lot of levels.  It's not just his "turn on a dime" positions, his 2nd grade foreign policy, or his propensity for actively turning murderers loose on the streets to kill and rape some more.  What truly scares me about Huckabee is his fake "aw shucks, I'm just a hick" demeanor which hides a slickness that hasn't been seen in Washington politics since Bill Clinton bit his lower lip for the first time on national TV.

Let's face it.  A lot of Americans are suckers.  Barnum said there was one born every minute and the birthrate has skyrocketed since then.  Whether it's a guy in a sweater telling you that his car wax will protect your car from fire, Smilin' Bob extolling the virtues of herbal supplements' help in his (and your) sex life, or Oral Roberts having the audacity to claim to have seen a 500 foot Jesus and people believed him, Americans are suckers for slick hicks. 

Bill Clinton is a slick hick.  Ann Richards (D-TX) was a slick hick.  Jimmy Carter is...well... aside from being an America-hating, jew-hating socialist, he really is a hick.  And the latest slick hick (who ironically also comes from Hope, AR) is Mike Huckabee.

If you think Huckabee is stumbling his way to the nomination, you're wrong.  Just like Bill Clinton tried to relate to voters by talking about fake grass in his pickup truck, Huckabee once lived in a mobile home while the governor's mansion was being renovated.

And that's what scares me most about Huckabee.  Clinton's slickness and "aw shucks" demeanor came from where Clinton came from.  Once he was president, the hick stayed in Arkansas and the Bill/Hill duo became the darlings of the rich and powerful.  Huckabee's "golly gee" facade is permanent. 

One would ask, "if it's permanent, how can it be a facade?"  Because it's not every day.  Huckabee is not a down-home guy "like me" as a voter would say.  Watch him closely.  See his nasty temper.  He tries to hide it, but it slips out.

Read this article by the AP which gives a nice little overview of Huckabee's antics. 

Do not underestimate Huckabee and don't turn your back on him.  He's a politician like we haven't seen since...well, since Bill Clinton's last election in 1996.  And don't be taken in by his shenanigans.  If you are wondering whether to support Huckabee or not, you need only to look at one thing:  his record.  Turn off the TV, forget about his bass-playing, bumper-sticker politics and read what he actually did.  When you do, you'll see that he's even closer to Bill Clinton than you would have ever thought.

Mike Huckabee.  We Republicans want elephants not RINO's and Huckabee is the biggest RINO out there.
