A certain paranoid, irrelevant, failing blogger, who sees Nazis and racists wherever he looks, continually claims that the only reason any Republican voter or conservative blog detests Barack Hussein Obama, is because he’s (half) black.

Please note, for those of you stalkers from the cesspool, and other lib miscreants, without a sense of humor (or functioning brain), which is 99.9% of you, the following two paragraphs are called sarcasm. Thank you for your cooperation.

Of course all of us racists only hate Obama because of the color of his skin! It has nothing to do with the pathetic job he’s doing! It’s the color of his skin that we detest!

If we weren’t all racists, we’d agree he’s actually done such a fine job as President, that he deserves not only a second, but also a third and fourth term! Damn racist constitution written by all those dead slave-owning honkies a couple hundred years ago and amended by other honkies is holding down da brother!

Seriously, the fact is, that since Obama took office in Jan. 2009, the USA is a total disaster. Take a look at these numbers. They don’t lie, nor can they be “spun” to turn the truth into lies. Since wordpress doesn’t do spreadsheets or graphs well, the first number is what is was in Jan. 2009, when Obungler took office. The second number is today, or the most current available. The third is the percentage of change since Jan. 2009.

After reading the chart, you will see that nothing good has happened, and Obama deserves to go the route of Jimmy Carter- One term and done.

Progressives Compare Gov. Scott Walker to Hitler

Progressives, such as online cult leader and supposedly great political analyst, Charles “Icarus” Johnson, complained when some Tea Party activists had posters of Obama as Hitler. As we know, this was mainly the Larouchers, who are themselves a cult. Either way it was a small segment of the Tea Party movement that did this. Yet leftists, like a certain unemployed Californian, are silent as Progressive public sector workers in Wisconsin compare their governor to Hitler and Mussolini.

The Republican governor of Wisconsin Scott Walker is attempting to prevent the teachers unions from abusing their collective bargaining powers. The teachers pay nothing towards their health care and pensions. This has led to a state deficit and and long term debt. Walker’s budget wanted to restrict pay increases to cost of living and force the workers to pay towards their pensions and health coverage. This is something that private sector workers do and they make less money. Clearly something must be done as this is not fair to the taxpayers of Wisconsin.

MADISON, Wis. – Faced with a near-certain Republican victory that would end a half-century of collective bargaining for public workers, Wisconsin Democrats retaliated with the only weapon they had left: They fled.

Fourteen Democratic lawmakers disappeared from the Capitol on Thursday, just as the Senate was about to begin debating the measure aimed at easing the state’s budget crunch.

By refusing to show up for a vote, the group brought the debate to a swift halt and hoped to pressure Republicans to the negotiating table.

[…]

In addition to eliminating collective-bargaining rights, the legislation also would make public workers pay half the costs of their pensions and at least 12.6 percent of their health care coverage — increases Walker calls “modest” compared with those in the private sector.

Read the rest: Wis. lawmakers flee state to block anti-union bill

The public sector unions have caused a fiscal crisis for the states. Public pay in many states is now more than private pay. This is an economic imbalance that is hurting this nation. Governor Scott Walker is tackling the problem head on to improve his state’s economic competitiveness, something Progressives don’t grasp nor care about.

As usual not only is the state union protesting, but they are receiving assistance from the regime of Community organizer in chief, Barack Hussein Obama. His Organizing for America group is sending advisers to assist the teacher’s union. Clearly this is outside interference in a local matter. This typical of what 3rd World regimes do and Obama is implementing this for America.

Here is video clip of some of the signs the Obama backed protesters were
carrying.

The failed California programmer praised these protests. Progressives like him are OK with Republicans being called Nazis or Fascists, but they get upset when they are compared to it. The real reason why Charles “Icarus” Johnson is OK with the Nazi comparisons is because he believes that Conservatives are Nazis. Chuck believes that these protesters really are fighting Nazis and that’s his reason for supporting them.

Progressives are hypocrites and Chuck the failed blogger turned online cult leader is just an example of this. Civility for thee, but not for me. This is why Conservatives must show the left no mercy. Politics is war through other means.

The Origins of the Diary of Daedalus

The Diary of Daedalus which started as a spin off blog has turned into a huge success. The origins of this blog are as funny as its target, Charles “Icarus” Johnson. Coldwarrior was tired of all the Chuck talk on the blog. One day drunk on Vodka, he called about 3:30 AM EST. I picked up and he was bitching and yelling that he was tired of Chucky talk, he said it was ruining the blog and holding us back. His original idea was to set up a CJ page, where people can comment on LGF stuff. I raise him one better, I proposed a new blog dedicated to discussing the Jazz Man.

Since Chuck’s stage name was Icarus. I took the moniker of Daedalus, his father who warned dim not to get close to the sun. The irony in his stage name was that it was a perfect metaphor for his blogging career.  He was at extreme heights in the blogosphere and let his ego overtake him. He crashed and is now a laughing stock on the Internet. The name Coldwarrior and I decided on was the Diary of Daedalus. It is a chronicle of Chuck’s lies, hypocrisy and deceit.

Diary of Daedalus is far removed from its humble origins, it is now a Blog super power. Thanks to the Boiler Room Crew and Chen Zhen, Chuck can no longer get away with his lies. He has no credibility with the Left and is despised by the Right. He is trapped in a  box and is viewed as the Howard Hughes of the Internet. Remember, all this began with a drunken phone call.

Charles “Icarus” Johnson was never was some great blog genius. All he is at the end of the day, is a Jazz Guitarist!

Rodan Note: Due to the situation in Egypt, any news and discussion of the events is encouraged.

Update: Chen has another home run at Diary of Daedalus.

UpdateII: Song and Dance Man wanted to add this to the origins of Daedalus.

What must be included in that narrative is the many of us who were tired of the constant Foster talk on this blog. I think you left that out of your post.

Cato the Elder Banned!

This is a special overnight, the Bunk party will resume tomorrow.

(Picture Update Hat Tip: Bunk X)

Cato the Elder, who changed from Conservative to an Islamic loving Progressive, has been banned at LGF. That’s right, his Pro-Islamic views and support of Progressive causes didn’t spare him from Charles “Icarus” Johnson’s wrath.

His offense, he didn’t want to subscribe to LGF!

Below are screen shots of the series of events that lead to the banning.

So it’s all about money for Charles “Icarus” Johnson. He has no loyalty considering Cato changed his views to fit in and adopted the Jazz Man’s opinions.  Dark Falcon shows his weaselly cowardly colors here. Rather than stand by a friend who, like him, changed his views to fit in, he pisses on his grave!

Dark Falcon is a pure coward who is afraid of some old washed up hippie guitarist and his ban stick. He has no loyalty other than to his Progressive masters. Charles then tells anyone who doesn’t like Cato’s banning that they can join him!

No loyalty on the part of Charles, this shows his lack of character.

Killgore Trout chimes in and tells people they better pay up!

Let this be a lesson to phonies like Dark Falcon and the other fake Conservatives at LGF. No matter how much you grovel and change views, the Jazz Man doesn’t care. It’s all about money and towing the party line. Cato the Elder learn that lesson today. It’s no longer just be a Progressive, you better pay to play!
