Can Tom Tancredo The Racist & Extremist Ex Congressman Save Russell Pearce From Political Death?

Monday, July 25th, 2011

Pearce’s hypocrisy was confirmed today when I received a copy of documents filed by Tom Tancredo the ex Colorado congressman and chairman of Team America PAC. Tancredo has entered the “stop the Pearce recall efforts” by forming a committee to oppose the recall. Essentially a money making machine that will fight tooth and nail alongside Pearce to allow his political survival. Know this, Tancredo is a true extremist. He has attended Tea Party rallies in Arizona in the past and has shared the stage with his controversial friend Russell Pearce.

The hypocrisy comes in watching Stan Barnes the ex legislator and official Pearce arse kisser on Sunday Square Off the other day complaining about this Pearce recall being influenced by outside sources, I knew it wouldn’t be long before the dirty laundry would be aired regarding Pearce’s true backing. Well here it is Monday and we have a copy of the documents filed by Tancredo with the Arizona Secretary of State. Well if that isn’t the pot calling the kettle black!

Tancredo’s nativism and extremism is founded in part by his comments that have ranged from claiming the Pope wants to welcome illegal immigrants to boost church membership to claiming that Miami is becoming a third world country. He is an ardent border wall supporter like Pearce and has even gone so far as to display his anger at Mayors in U.S. border cities that didn’t want the border affecting their relationship with Mexico by stating that the border should then be built North of those cities, to keep those cities out of the United States.

In 2010 Tancredo said this:

In April, during the keynote address at a Tea Party rally in South Carolina, Tancredo told a crowd that we’re “going to have to pray that we can hold on to this country.” And added this about the president: “If his wife says Kenya is his homeland, why don’t we just send him back?”

I’m sure we’ll see many more Tancredo types surface and join up with the gang of xenophobes, nativists, racists and those that call themselves true patriots just trying to do what’s right for Arizona and America.

Can someone hand me my popcorn. This movie plays like something out of the old days. Let’s see, who’s going to play Bull Connor?

Andrew Breitbart Breached His Contract With The Left

Friday, June 10th, 2011

Recently I wrote regarding what I felt was clearly criminal behavior on behalf of Andrew “the ACORN killer” Breitbart. Many of you justified his behavior by alleging that Anthony Weiner exposed himself, no pun intended, to blackmail. Tell me, just how the hell do you justify criminal behavior by stating that the victim exposed themselves to being blackmailed? It’s like stating a bank robber is not guilty because the bank had the money sitting there in tills, readily available to be taken by anyone with a gun. “They should have better secured the money,” you might say.

In any event it’s obvious that the right wing cronies practice the, “Do as I say, not as I do, concept.” It’s amazing to see the right wing nuts scream bloody murder about Weiner when you have some outrageous behavior from the likes of Mark Sanford and his Argentine mistress and John Ensign the “Christian” Senator who couldn’t keep it in his pants and carried on with his behavior from a “Christian” congressional type dormitory, for a lack of other more descriptive words.

However in this case it’s clearly a matter of a breach of contract on behalf of Breitbart. What occurred at the podium was at once criminal in extorting an apology from Weiner in return for not releasing a revealing picture of the congressman, but what has now occurred is a breach of contract. Breitbart stood at the podium and tendered an offer, Weiner entertained the offer, accepted the offer, and tendered payment in the form of an apology as Breitbart had requested.

The three basic components of a contract are the offer, the consideration and the acceptance. Clearly Breitbart offered to withhold a picture that would further compromise Anthony Weiner’s already precarious situation. As Weiner stood there in the wings, ready to take hold of the podium after Breitbart’s hijacking, Weiner considered the offered tendered by Breitbart, Weiner then accepted the offer and shortly after taking possession of the podium, Weiner tendered the apology subject of the agreement, therefore consummating the contract with Breitbart.

However, Breitbart behaved in his typical sleazy manner and not only did he not keep his word as a gentleman, of which he certainly isn’t, but Breitbart clearly breached the parties agreement by making an appearance on trash radio and “exposing” Weiner’s picture which he had promised not to reveal.

It’s obvious that Breitbart followed the right wing SOP, that is, promise something to get what you want, once you get it, make excuses for not having kept your promise, and then repeat the process. This hypocritical, two time, double talking, double standard way of doing business repeats itself every day and throughout this great country, all courtesy of the greatest hypocrites that nowadays call themselves Republicans and conservatives.

So the way I see it, in the last couple of days Breitbart has not only committed a crime, he breached an agreement. This guy is a criminal and a deadbeat. Hey, I have an idea, maybe he can seize the GOP nomination for president since he meets all the criteria to run on behalf of the Republicans.
