I’ve been mildly watching the 2012 Presidential Election, most of it has been boring for me.

Predictably, the Republicans put up Mitt Romney as their unofficial Nominnee.
And, Predictably, since he has nothing else to run on, Obama is still running against President Bush, who has not participated in an Election since 2004.
Barring that, Obama’s team (and this includes most of the Mass Media) have been playing Attack of the Day, to see what sticks. (Kind of a continuous Weather Balloon trick.)

I have often made this observation, silently, to myself, but it was encouraging to read it in yesterday’s Best of the Web Today.

Editor, James Taranto pointed out some very poignant articles regarding this Presidential Election.
(more…)

I was reading the latest Best of the Web Today and was amused by an anecdote at the end of the main dissertation of an article on the Left Wing attack of the potential Supreme Court rout of ObamaCare.

Those arguments left the left in a state of high anxiety, and The Wall Street Journal notes in an editorial today that Democratic politicians and liberal journalists are “making one last attempt to intimidate the Justices,” especially Chief Justice John Roberts:

Senate Judiciary Chairman Pat Leahy recently took the extraordinary step of publicly lobbying the Chief Justice after oral argument but before its ruling. “I trust that he will be a Chief Justice for all of us and that he has a strong institutional sense of the proper role of the judicial branch,” the Democrat declared on the Senate floor. “The conservative activism of recent years has not been good for the Court.”
He added that, “Given the ideological challenge to the Affordable Care Act and the extensive, supportive precedent, it would be extraordinary for the Supreme Court not to defer to Congress in this matter that so clearly affects interstate commerce.”

To summarize Leahy’s message: If you don’t uphold this law, passed on a party-line vote, my party will accuse you of partisanship. The intent is so transparent, and the argument so ridiculous, one is half-tempted to admire its sheer brazenness.

This is a tired story, just like Bush’s misuse of the word Shiite:

As Reuters reports from St. Petersburg, Russia:

A microphone picked up an unaware President Bush saying on Monday Syria should press Hezbollah to “stop doing this [scatological vulgarity]” and that his secretary of state may go to the Middle East soon.

Reuters, which considers terrorism taboo, actually quotes the vulgarity, which we’ve omitted, in part because this Web site is published by a family newspaper and in part because we’re not sure the president didn’t actually say “Shiite.”

Speaking of being out of touch, from Today’s Best of the Web:

There’s an Agenda in Here Somewhere
“With Republicans seeking to define Democrats by their votes on such hot-button issues as gay marriage, the estate tax and flag burning, House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) is arguing that Democrats need to tell voters about themselves before Republicans succeed in doing it for them,” reports the Hill:

The time to criticize the Republicans’ “culture of corruption,” a Democratic refrain for nearly a year, is at an end, Pelosi said; Democrats need to begin promoting their own vision of America. . . .

“What we have to do is define ourselves so that Republicans do not define us. This is a define-or-be-defined business that we’re in, so you can’t leave it out in the open,” Pelosi said.

And what is that vision?

She outlined three areas where Democrats would seek to differentiate themselves from Republicans: integrity, civility and accountability. If Democrats were to take control of the House in November, their first actions would focus on promoting those values, she said.

“These are not full-blown initiatives,” she cautioned.

She also said, “I’m even hard put to say what our agenda will be when we win.” Not exactly the Contract With America, is it?

Lets read this Article from the Microsoft News Network:

WASHINGTON – Vice President Dick Cheney’s former top aide told prosecutors President Bush authorized the leak of sensitive intelligence information about Iraq, according to court papers filed by prosecutors in the CIA leak case.

The filing by Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald also describes Cheney’s involvement in I. Lewis Libby’s communications with the press.

There was no indication in the filing that either Bush or Cheney authorized Libby to disclose Valerie Plame’s CIA identity. But it points to Cheney as one of the originators of the idea that Plame could be used to discredit her husband, Bush administration critic Joseph Wilson.

Wow, the White House is really in hot water here, aren’t they? Cheney told Libby to out Valerie “Double-0 Nothing” Plame?
But wait… what was “leaked”? MSNBC doesn’t really say.

Since I pretty much cannot talk about the Philadelphia Eagles for almost a year, I might as well make fun of a rather interesting convergence of Football and Politics. It is called the Washington Redskins vs. the Seattle Seahawks; or as the Seattle Times refers to Washington [D.C.] vs. Seattle [Washington].

Only on the Left-Coast could something like this happen:

To avoid insulting native American heritage, the Seattle Times decided to limit severely the use of the term Redskins in the paper — even if a team with that name will dominate news coverage this week. The Times will not use the moniker in headlines or captions. Reporters can use it only once, as a first reference, in all stories. The Redskins will be referred to almost exclusively as Washington — which could get a little confusing for local readers who also live in that state.

Well, this seems to be a dry news-cycle, so Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com will take a brief look at the pressing news items of recent days:

• There is a lot of noise about Able Danger, and the military knowing that there was an Al-Quaeda cell operating in the United States.
  I’m sorry, but I cannot get excited over this. What would we have done about it, back then? Storm the cell, and arrest everyone? (This is BEFORE the Patriot Act, remember (and even WITH the Patriot Act, arresting a suspsected terrorist requires something on par with a blessing from the ACLU) and pamper them at Gitmo?) What good would this knowledge have done pre-Sept-11?
• Some chick is camping outside the Western White House (She must REALLY want tickets to the show), along with a plethora of press. From all her previous statements, the woman sounds like a moonbat. (See Best of the Web Today – First Item.)
• And I-Ran…. I-Ran has nukes to-daaay…. (with apologies to “Flock Of Seagulls”)
  Well, they don’t have actual nukes yet, but everyone seems to be quaking over the idea that they are close.
• Meanwhile, Senator Edward Kennedy is still suffering from a personal quagmire, in which wherever he looks he thinks he sees a quagmire; and as a result is asking everyone to retire or resign, except himself.

  Mary Jo Kopechne was unavailable for comment.

• Hillary Clinton is still not running for president
• Neither is Al Gore
• Neither is The haughty french-looking Massachusetts Democrat who by-the-way served in Vietnam.
• Yassir Arafat is still in Stable Condidtion after dying in a Paris Hospital.
• Lybian Terrorist and Dictator Muammar Abu Minyar al-Qadahfi is still a Colonel. (T-Shirts for sale!)
• Jeremy-Gilby-dot-com is Still Good In China (Be sure to buy the T-shirt!)

As much as I tire of hearing about the uber-covert-spy Valerie Plame, (Day-By-day even coined a great phrase, PlameOut) I have to take notice at the way everyone is bending over backwards to make Karl Rove some kind of diabolical criminal.

Recently, I hinted that The haughty french-looking Massachusetts Democrat, who by-the-way also served in Vietnam was slow to Release his Military Records, which he Promised to Release on Meet the Depressed, back on January 30, 2005.

In a Sunday plebiscite, French voters said non to the European Constitution, which the New York Times calls “a document similar in some ways to the Constitution that binds the United States.” Also dissimilar in some ways; for instance, it comprises 448 articles, 441 more than the U.S. Constitution. “The decision of France inevitably creates a difficult situation for the defense of our interests in Europe,” said President Jacques Chirac, the haughty, Massachusetts-looking Paris Gaullist, who by the way served Saddam.

That party is so pathetic, they even lose the elections they win! What were you expecting, Bruce Springsteen heading up the ticket? Bruce would make a helluva president, but guys like him don’t run–and neither do you or I. People like Kerry run.

“Guys like him don’t run”? In fact, as Springsteen himself has made clear, transient individuals of his ilk, baby, are predestined from birth to run.

“Many of you are well enough off that … the tax cuts may have helped you,” Sen. Clinton said. “We’re saying that for America to get back on track, we’re probably going to cut that short and not give it to you. We’re going to take things away from you on behalf of the common good.“

“I express my profound regrets over Reagan’s death before he appeared before justice to be held to account for his ugly crime in 1986 against Libyan children,” Gaddafi told the official JANA news agency.

Yes, we know that “Libya, which recently emerged from international isolation over its alleged support for ‘terrorism’ “–there they go again–”has been promoting better ties with the United States.” But can’t we drop a bomb or two on this creep, just for old times’ sake?
