Bailing out socialism


Welcome to the January 31, 2009 edition of Nobama Blog Carnival.

The One has arrived and is demonstrating plenty of the Audacity he wrote about before taking the throne. With that in mind, the Obama critics of the blogosphere bring you another round of commentary from a variety of perspectives, but united in sensible opposition to the Maker of Change. Many thanks to our readers and contributors.

The Mighty Unstimulus

Bill O’Connell presents All Those Opposed Say Nay posted at libertyslifeline.com: "This is not a stimulus package, it a package to consolidate Democratic power."

The Mayor presents Democrats think of one way they can enforce the border posted at Mitchieville: "Democrats were just a year ago looking to bankrupt the coal industry. How were they planning on making the steel in the US with no coal?"

David Lamb presents Building Bridges to Nowhere posted at Killer Buffalo: (Following "green" thinking to its logical conclusion, if Obama wants people to ride the subway and save the planet, why fix the roads?)

Governing Liberally

DaDougster presents Ice Cream & The Election posted at Right-wing Conservative Humor & Satire: "The most eye-opening civics lesson I ever had was while teaching third grade this year."

Michael Haltman presents Barack Obama: The Great American Apologist [del.icio.us] posted at The Political and Financial Markets Commentator: "all would be well in the world and those that seek to destroy us would instead be joining us for a rousing rendition of Kumbaya."

Cult of Personality

Steve Simbeck presents 4 out of 5 experts agree that 4 out of 5 experts are experts posted at No Mato mi Pavo: "Our leader, our political expert is 47 years of polish and style and very little substance."

Steve Simbeck presents To the victors go the spoils that spoil the victors posted at No Mato mi Pavo: "The ONE did win. But does that victory mean everything he wants is now a fait accompli?"

T. presents Deconstructing Obama, Pt. 3: Lincoln and the Narcissist posted at The Rawness: "This is part 3 of an ongoing series dedicated to piecing together a plausible personality profile of Obama."

Awaiting the Anointed One

Welcome to the January 11, 2009 edition of Nobama Blog Carnival.

As the media and the Left joyfully await the blessed reign of the Anointed One, here's another round of insightful commentary from the anti-Obama regions of the blogosphere. A hearty thanks and a happy new year to our readers and contributors.

Economy

Here we examine the unprecedentedly big numbers being considered in Obama's economic plans, along with other financial considerations. Don't miss the chart showing how much you'll owe over the next few decades!

Bill Spohnholtz presents Bailout Bazooka posted at Learn The Stock Market And How to Trade: "The number 1 trillion dollars has been thrown around for the total cost of Obama’s economic stimulus plan."

The Whited Sepulchre presents On The Inconvenience Of Prosperity posted at The Whited Sepulchre: "Is there anything that would be more harmful to the next White House resident than a nice long economic boom? Prosperity is a huge inconvenience to those who want to change the world."

Raymond presents My Stock Market and Real Estate Predictions For Year 2009 posted at Money Blue Book: "Obama's economic policy is not going to revive the economy."

Bill OConnell presents Keep the Change posted at libertyslifeline.com: "Here is where Obama’s lack of executive experience is on full display, and the man is yet to take office."

And here's an amazing story of big plans on the public tab.

Traci Hayner Vanover presents Edwardsville, Alabama: They'll Leave the Light on For 'Ya posted at Shoe Tossing - Conservative News & Commentary - On the Heels of Liberal Lunacy: "And it won’t cost them nearly as much as you’d think -- especially if their wish for $375 million from the economic stimulus package is granted."

Racial factors

Political issues in black and white.

Curry Kenworthy presents Liberal fantasies and racial elections posted at Curry Kenworthy: "Some liberals are worried that Obama will be assassinated because he is black. What part does racism really play in today's political situation, and why do conservatives actually oppose Obama?"

Congress

This commentary was written while the Blagojevich situation was building up.

U.S. Common Sense presents Blagojevich and Democrats on Collision Course posted at U.S. Common Sense: "The Senate Democrats have vowed to block Burris from being seated. Blagojevich believes they won't be successful. Who will win this face-off?"

Cult of Charisma

Anyone out there afraid of charismatic leaders with obsessed, uncritical followers?

Cristy Li presents GMA Guest: "The One" Best Represented Teachings Of Jesus. Huh? posted at Cristy Li: "Rev. Ed Dobson who never voted for a Democrat claims that he spent a year in quiet meditation and believed 'The One' was closer to Jesus."

T. presents Deconstructing Obama, Pt. 2: 48 Laws of Obama posted at The Rawness: "This is part 2 of an ongoing series dedicated to piecing together a plausible personality profile of Obama."
