Miley Cyrus Shows Her Underwear

Posted on Comments

The 17-year-old’s post-Disney sluttification continues:

Miley Cyrus put on a display of sheer daring while shooting a video clip in LA yesterday.
The 17-year-old star was spotted running barefoot around a car park in a transparent sundress that revealed her cream bra and knickers.  . . .
In a scene that might make her Australian boyfriend, actor Liam Hemsworth, squirm just a little, she was also seen passionately kissing a handsome male co-star.

Hey, at least it wasn’t another fake-lesbian kiss. We’re probably just a few years from Miley paying her bodyguard to watch her run around naked. Oh, and if you think slutty celebrity behavior doesn’t influence kids, watch this clip from the “Today” show:

Who ever imagined that the first person to say the “c-word” to Meredith Vieira on live TV would be a 13-year-old girl?

Christine O’Donnell: RINO Killer

Posted on Comments

Every conservative says they hates RINOs. How do you stop two-faced backstabbers like Arlen Specter and Charlie Crist from taking over the GOP and giving voters a choice between a liberal Democrat and a liberal Republican?

What you need is a RINO killer, and they’ve got one in Delaware named Christine O’Donnell. She’s taking on the GOP establishment’s hand-picked RINO choice, Mike Castle. She was recently interviewed at Red State:

This is a fight for the heart and soul of not only the Country but the Republican party as well. We’re fighting against the worst “Republican” in recent memory. He has sided with the Democrats 70% of the time, and gets a failing grade from a host of organizations including the NRA, CFG, and many others. Are we really satisfied with a liberal politician solely because he has an “R” after his name? I don’t think so. And, to take him out, we need to come together, get out the message, get people to the polls, and get the donations we’ll need to cross the state of Delaware to educate people on what is really at stake in this race.

Smitty blogged about Christine O’Donnell in March. Da Tech Guy was impressed and  Bob Belvedere issued a “Major Babe Alert.”

It’s three months until the September primary, and this lady could make a huge difference. The problem is that Mike Castle has big RINO money, and the O’Donnell campaign doesn’t. The answer?

MONEY BOMB!

She’s halfway to her $10,000 goal. If all you can give is $10 or $20, give it now. Every little bit helps.

RINO-KILLER MONEY BOMB!

Do it. Do it now.

The latest whimsical outing featuring Purple People Beaters and a woman who seems conceptually related to Helen Thomas, and a Tea Party, is done. Note the links in the right column to start you at the beginning.

Good show, old boy!

Mea Culpa

Last night I put up a post that seemed funny at the time, but was in poor taste. There is far important news to cover, and I apologize for the waste of bandwidth. Dan, if it helps, I should like to buy you lunch at the ANC, at your convenience.

‘Folks Says He Lied to His Wife’

Posted on Comments

Ben Smith buried the lede in his profile of Will Folks:

Folks says he was haunted by fear that the story of their affair would emerge after the Free Times, a local alternative weekly, attempted to report out Statehouse scuttlebutt on the subject.
Folks says he lied to his wife about the relationship with Haley and told her only the Saturday before the claim became public. He says he panicked, and . . . posted his confession.
But while rumors were flying around Columbia, there’s little evidence that a revelation was imminent.
“Nobody would have printed anything,” said O’Connor.
“I felt that I was confronted with a situation that I couldn’t get out of,” Folks said.

Will Folks is a liar. Period. And it doesn’t matter whether he lied in previously denying an affair or whether he’s lying with his “confession” now.

He may be lying about both. That’s who he is. That’s what he does. And no one can ever trust him again.

UPDATE: Brian O’Connell at Red Dog Report says the whole point of Will Folks’ “confession” was to drive up his web traffic and notes that Folks is now boasting that his monthly traffic will exceed one million visitors. That’s a lot for any site. For a site that only blogs about South Carolina politics, it’s huge, and Folks is laughing all the way to the bank with this vicious little smear.

Aleister at American Glob compares Will Folks to Larry Sinclair, who in 2008 claimed to have had a gay affair with Barack Obama in 1998. Guess which major mainstream media reported on Sinclair’s allegation. If your guess was “none,” you’re a winner!

And the Lexington County, S.C., Republican Party has voted to censure and call for the resignation of state Sen. Jake Knotts, who called Nikki Haley a “f–king raghead.”

The Last Tradition has a post, Brother, Can You Spare Some Liberty about deadbeat men and the women who find themselves supporting them. The Donna Summer clip was a fine choice to round off the post, but how about some Rush?

Meanwhile, Valley of the Shadow is taking the opposite tack, working hard putting together the Southland Fundraiser/Great Right Wing Hollywood Blogger Meet Up. Left coast bloggers, take note. JSF’s choice of Folsom Prison Blues for the post is kind of oddball.

AIG’s $100 Billion I.O.U.

Posted on Comments

Good luck collecting on this one:

A watchdog panel reviewing the bailout of American International Group Inc. said U.S. taxpayers “remain at risk for severe losses” and that the government didn’t act aggressively enough to protect U.S. taxpayers during the 2008 rescue.
In a lengthy report, the bipartisan Congressional Oversight Panel concluded that the U.S. government, which owns nearly 80% of the insurance giant, is likely to “remain a significant shareholder in AIG through 2012” and it is unclear if taxpayers “will ever be repaid in full.” . . .
Since September 2008, the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the Treasury Department have committed up to $182.3 billion to support AIG and provided roughly $132 billion of those funds so far. AIG is on the hook to repay about $101 billion mainly through asset sales and stock sales, and the rest is to be recouped from mortgage securities the New York Fed took onto its balance sheet. . . .
It also said a controversial decision by the New York Fed in late 2008 to pay off AIG’s trading partners in full on $62 billion in soured mortgage trades “distorted the marketplace” and protected AIG creditors at the expense of taxpayers.
“Billions of taxpayer dollars were put at risk, a marketplace was forever changed, and the confidence of the American people was badly shaken,” the report said. The panel, which oversees the government’s financial-bailout program, is chaired by Elizabeth Warren, a Harvard Law School professor. . . .

Read the rest of that. And notice that the guy who put taxpayers on the hook for the AIG bailout has since failed upward:

The New York Federal Reserve under Timothy Geithner failed to exhaust all options to arrange a private-sector rescue of American International Group before launching a taxpayer-funded bailout in 2008, a government watchdog group said on Thursday.
A report by the Congressional Oversight Panel said Geithner, now U.S. Treasury Secretary, on Sept. 15, 2008 left the task of finding a private bailout for AIG to two Wall Street banks, JPMorgan Chase and Goldman Sachs Group. . . .
“The Panel is concerned that the government put the effort to organize a private AIG rescue in the hands of only two banks — banks with severe conflicts of interest as they would have been among the largest beneficiaries of a taxpayer bailout,” the report said.

Classic.
