Goading Time

♫Goading in the morning,
Goading in the evening,
Goading at suppertime,
That's our chief executive,
Goading us all the time.♪

Yours truly and an as yet undisclosed friend have been playing with this idea of adapting the McGuire Sister's old hit Sugartime to serve as a warning to independent Americans so they are reminded how badly they're being represented and are thus being goaded into badly thought out reactions by Angelo Codevilla's ruling class and its Agency of Lies. I will end this warning with one of yesterday's examples.

But first a reminder that the following is not an avid endorsement of a personality. No matter how tedious it can become, I must regularly make this clear. You all know why I don't trust the most ardent radio talkers: because they've got their niche and they want to keep on the good side of those who permit them to broadcast. They have a conflict of interest that is lacking in independent bloggers such as moi.

However that does not mean they do not provide valuable services. We should be grateful for each nugget, but we should retain some cynicism. We can't keep the personalities honest, so we must be wary.

Thanks to David James at CNSnews.com, I became aware of another good Mark Levin rant.
(Note Mr. Levin's words near the end about weasels.)

Let nobody declare – without loads of caveats – that the Republican Party will provide the answer to the growth in power of the Anti-American Statists. We TEA Party types will be dragging its leaders kicking and screaming (to where?) before we can gain any real control of the Republican Party – or bury it by transforming it into the Party of America Revitalized.

From Levin: Scalia Understands Obama's 'Catch Me If You Can' Immigration Game

“The core argument that the administration made was that there had to be one rule, an enforcement policy when it comes to immigration. And, while it argued that in front of the Supreme Court a week and a half ago the president of the United States issued his fiat. One rule? What happened to the one rule? What happened to the consistency? What happened to Congressional preemption?

“Here’s what [Justice] Scalia understands. Here’s what he understands. Obama is playing a game of ‘catch me if you can.’

"The Supreme Court hadn’t even ruled on the Arizona law yet. But it’s a process, a gradual process. They have their arguments. They have their this, they have their that. They have their process. They write their opinions. They have to be printed, they have to be issued.

“But Obama knows, that while he’s sitting there waiting for these decisions, he can take unilateral action. Because the court has already ruled even though it hasn’t issued its ruling. Congress can’t do a damn thing because the Democrats control the Senate, and we have weasels running the house.

"So who’s gonna catch him? Nobody. Catch me if you can.”
