Is it time to go John Galt. . .

Alright now, knock it the hell off. . .
These things are getting a bit too creepy. (UPDATE: Both of the videos below have had their creators rethink what they have done, or perhaps they just didn't think people would catch on? Not to fear though, the videos are fixed.)
I really just don't know what to say about that. Actually, I know what I want to say. Wake the hell up America! The Obama-messiah BS has just got to stop! This Emperor has no clothes!
I was going to let the video below pass, but after the one above, I just had to put it somewhere I can easily reference it. So here it is, I'm sure you heard about it.
Oh well, there is of course hope. First there's this little Obama tid bit:
Which answers my earlier question of just what is Obama's real name. Turns out, It's Barry Soetoro. I wonder if some enterprising journalist out there would care to ask Candidate Soetoro/Obama when and why he changed his name, changed it back and just what is with "Barack Hussein Obama"?
You know, he could have cleared this up long ago, but now we have to get a court order for Barack Obama to produce his birth certificate ("a "vault" version (certified copy of his "original" long version Birth Certificate, no less").
Oh, but wait, it gets better:
"2. A certified copy of Obama's Certification of Citizenship
3. A Certified copy of Obama's Oath of Allegiance."
As I said, he could have cleared this up long ago, but didn't. And HEY! What's this about 200 million in possibly illegal Obama campaign contributions????

Let's set the record straight about community organizers. . .
During her Emmy acceptance speechlet, actress Laura Linney made the statement:
"the great community organizers that helped form our country"
referring to the John Adams HBO mini-series and giving a nod to Democrat Presidential Nominee Barack Obama. Also:
"Our founding fathers were community organizers. And that is fact to me. And I feel that has been disparaged."
Let's set the record straight about Obama and our founding fathers as "community organizers."
John Adams was a lawyer and a farmer.
Thomas Jefferson was a lawyer, agronomist, musician, scientist, philosopher, author, architect, inventor, and statesman.
Sam Adams was an unsuccessful brewer, a clerk, an unsuccessful business man and a tax collector.
Benjamin Franklin was a businessman, writer, publisher and scientist.
(Here is a link to the bios of the signers of the Declaration of Independence)
Obama was hired by ACORN to be a "community organizer". ACORN is an international liberal activism group responsible for multiple instances of voter fraud. Also, in 2006, according to the WSJ "House Democrats pushed an "affordable housing trust fund" designed to use Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac profits to subsidize ACORN".
It is INSULTING to our founding fathers to equate them this way.
--Jason
PS As an atheist, I really get a kick out of the "Jesus was a 'community organizer'" meme that circulates amonst the left. I can't really think of something that would me more offensive to a Christian and perhaps it's the faux Christianity that the left likes to portray that has caused them to fall into this trap. To suggest that Jesus was taking a low level job with international political action groups getting their funding from the Roman government; and that Jesus was going around taking census and holding peoples hands as they petitioned local government officials is simply absurd. Let's not mention that Jesus according to Christians and others ACTUALLY DID STUFF, while the communities Obama "organized" are generally worse off than they were before Obama.

Boy George endorses Obama. . .
Well, all righty then, that seals it for me.
Seriously, if you watch that video, and as a result of said watching. . . you think, somehow, that Barack Obama is "your kinda president", then please, don't ever bothering speaking to me again. In fact, don't ever bother reading this blog again, just ban this URL in your firewall settings.
I understand completely that Obama definately probably had no hand in the production of said video. I'll grant that they maybe probably did not approve of it. This may not be the Boy George Barack Obama thought he knew.
It's the messiah-ness of Obama's campaign. The examples are legion and too many to list at this point.
So, once again, if that video increased in any way, any positive feelings you may have of Obama's race for the Presidency of the United States, just turn around and go away now.

Bob Newhart vs. Obama
Every election that rolls round makes me think of Bob Newhart's "Abe Lincoln vs. Madison Ave."
The Intro -
"Thank you, thank you very much.Many of you may have read The Hidden Persuaders, it's about avertising. . . and one of the points the book made was that the real danger of the public relations man, or the advertising man, was that they were creating images. And they felt that in the presidential campaigns, the candidates were really getting closer and closer together, there was no real difference between them, and you were really voting for the man. . . and this got me to thinking. Now supposing this science, were as far advanced during the civil war. . . as it is today. . . and there was no Lincoln. . Now the advertising people realizing this, would have had to create a Lincoln, and I think they would have gone about it. . . something like this.
This is a telephone conversation between Abe, and his press agent, just before Gettysburg."
My, how far the ad-man has come.

Huck and Chuck. . .
So. . . .here we have the big "countdown" on Huckabee's site to something big (or maybe it really is something small, like a stated website re-design).
Then we have this. Huckabee has signed on with Creative Artists Agency.
The very first thing that popped into my mind was that someone had put up the change to make a new TV show with Huckabee and Norris playing President and Vice-President. Is it feasible that some loaded deep pocket uber-Christian types decided to make an action adventure comedy with Huck and Chuck????? Yes, it's certainly feasible, and in the short term, it'd probably make some coin in return.
Is it likely? Certainly not.
Hopefully you, like me, have now had a brief moment of good fun "what if's" with this announcement.
And hey, it's a super long shot, but if "Huck and Chuck" does make it to air, I get to be the one to shout "First!"
Hat tip goes to Hot Air squared.
--Jason
PRUDENT DISCLAIMERS: Yes, this is the internet and I'm probably not the "first" to make this mental jump, or even the first to post it. I spent some time looking though and couldn't find anyone else with the idea. If you've previously posted on this possibility, lemme know. Also, let it be known that I, in no way shape or form support Huckabee for any political office whatsoever. I think his campaigning with Norris was idiotic, brilliant, humorous and tragic all at once, much like the candidate was himself. Then of course there's my whole atheist thing.

So I guess it's down to Rudy or Mitt. (I've been leaning Rudy for some time, but I need to take a closer look at Mitt.)

Ok, now this is getting wierd (the Politico.com connection). . .
Ok, here are some Dots. I'll let you connect them.
Here's my earlier post on David McMillan.
Here's another project of David McMillan's: Kotecki and McMillan (which appears to be a blatent rippoff of Bloggingheads.tv). So, who is Kotecki??
Just so happens that Kotecki does PlaybookTV for Politico.com.
Just so happens that on today's segment of PlaybookTV, Kotecki lauds "Concerned Corn Boy".
In case you didn't click into the Playbook TV link, Kotecki is covering the debate for Politico, and according to WDEL's Rick Jensen (who's show I was just on), Politico is about to bust wide open political connections of YouTube questions from last night.
I wonder what their scoop is?
This has all become high comedy of deception, hasn't it?

Not that anyone is really interested in me, but. . .
I'll be on the radio, the Rick Jensen show to be specific, in a few minutes talking about the CNN/YouTube fiasco last night.
You can listen live at wdel.com or tune into 1150 AM (unfortunately though, you'll have to be in Delaware; something tells me that reception will be bad for that station here in Birmingham).

Covering tracks. . .
If you can't take the heat, stay out of the debate, teddy. (not a Ted Kennedy reference)
Last night I exposed Ted Faturos, a CNN/YouTube debate questioner, as a former intern for Democrat Congresswoman from California Jane Harman. It wasn't hard to find a link between him and the Democrats, it took about 60 seconds of googling (actually I use live.com) and another 5 minutes or so to determine that they were one and the same.
This morning, it seems that Teddy has awoken to having his political affiliation exposed and his "gotcha" question shown for what it is, a partisan question designed to trick Republican candidates into disparaging the subsides for corn farmers. With the Iowa caucuses right around the corner and corn subsidies a hot topic Iowa, the question, simply put, was a setup, and a poor one at that.
I'll leave it to others to discuss the broader implications of last nights highjacking of a large portion of the debate and CNN's role as a willing accomplice. This was supposed to be a Republican debate, remember? One would think that after having the Democrat plants in the Democrat debate who tossed softballs to the candidates, CNN would have vetted the questions a bit. They obviously didn't, in fact, they went above and beyond to put a Hillary Clinton campaign steering committee member in the audience and then proceeded to give him the mike for an impromptu (not really, it was obviously rehearsed) speech on "Don't ask, don't tell".
So back to Ted.
Ted goes by the internet alias "young_chower", and last night he had a Flikr page at http://www.flickr.com/photos/tfaturos. This morning, after I exposed his ties to Democrat Congresswoman Jane Harman, the page is gone. Go ahead, check the link.
"young_chower" still has a profile page up at Chow.com (with a handy picture too). I'm guessing that there's not a "cover my tracks" button available to Chow.com members like there is for Flikr accounts.
So Ted, if you're reading this today, please, drop me a line, let's chat. I'm sorry you felt you had to take down that flikr page, I'm also sorry that archive.org didn't cache your page. Hmmmm. Maybe Google did, what do you think Ted?

Yet ANOTHER Democrat Plant at the CNN/YouTube Republican Debate. . .
Ok, this is getting ridiculous, yet another Democrat posing as a Republican for the CNN/YouTube debate.
This one is David McMillan, an aspiring TV writer in California, AND, a Bush and Rove hatin', John Edwards fan, who asked why the Republican party doesn't attract more African-Americans to it's side.
I'm beginning to wonder, did CNN try to Vet these questions at all???? I mean, come on people, all you had to do was look at his YouTube page which features multiple videos about John Edwards, more than a couple of VERY tasteless and discriminatory videos featuring the "Blind Black Republican" (of course the "it's just satire" excuse would probably be put in play here by defenders, but I'm sure that a satirical video featuring the Deaf Dominican Democrat would be villified by libs far and wide). Not satisfied with David's video collection as proof of his liberal/democrat bona fides? Ok, then check out his blog, which is light on links but does feature as it's sole blogger on his blogroll, that most famous of sock-puppeteers, Glen Greenwald.
The more names I check, the more convinced I am that not only did CNN not take the time to examine the appropriateness of the questions and questioners, but rather they must have actually gone out of their way to select a majority of liberal questioners asking asinine "gotcha" questions.
So far, every name I've checked has either been a democrat supporter, a democrat operative, or a Paulite/pseudo-dem (see: Emily Ekins, Joseph Dearing).
Exit question for CNN (although I'll never get an answer): Did you endeavor to select ANY questions from real Republicans other than Grover's?
--Jason
UPDATE: In an earlier entry, I found another, concerned corn boy is actually a former intern of a California Congresswoman.
WELCOME: Michelle Malkin and Hot Air readers, please take a look around, and let me say thanks to all who made my return to blogging a blockbuster experience. It reminds me of the night Dan Riehl turned me on to the Taliban Burned Bodies story.
Oh, yeah, sorry about the comments thing, I locked them down to avoid spam while the blog was dormant, they're working now.

Using my green thumb to find plants. . .
So, I'm sitting here a few hours after the CNN/YouTube debate just cruising the net reading the unfolding saga of the numerous plants "selected" to question the Republican candidates, and I thought to myself. . . "Who would I suspect to be a plant?"
So here we go:
The guy who asked the question about corn subsidies, Ted Faturos, is a former intern for Democrat Congresswoman Jane Harman.
Really now. . . would it have killed CNN to google some of these people?
--Jason
UPDATE: Apparently, here's another one.
UPDATE 2: "Concerned Corn Boy" is covering his tracks.
UPDATE 3: I highly recommend Michelle Malkin and Hot Air's (2) coverage of democrats masquerading as republicans in last nights debate, also Patterico has some very good commentary (and thanks for the link Patterico). Also check out the views at The Autopsy, Dinah Lord, and Wizbang.
