Hard Rain Episode-0051 Calderón Insults Arizona, Democrats Cheer!

Representative Tom McClintock (R-Ca) gives the best response yet to the outrageous, insulting spectacle of Mexican President Felipe Calderón interfering with an internal matter of the United States by calling the recently passed Arizona Illegal-Immigration law, racial profiling. Too bad McClintock, is the only Republican voice to be heard on this.

Democrats from the House and Senate and members of the Obama Cabinet gave Calderón a standing ovation. They say it's better than the finale of Lost. 

Obama never wanted illegal-immigration to become an issue in this election year. Faced with the issue popping up due to Arizona's new law he is trying to have it both ways on the issue. He also denounced the Arizona law in a joint appearance with President Felipe Calderón but is now sending 1,200 National Guard Troops to the state of Arizona. 

President Obama's approval rating at a new low of 42%. Support for repealing the Health Care Bill hits a new high of 63%. And, 72% of American are not sure Congress knows what it is doing when it comes to the economy.

Tennessee shows Arizona a little love on the Arizona Illegal-immigration bill.

After admitting that he was offered a job by someone in exchange for dropping out of the recent Pennsylvania Democratic Primary he won, Rep. Joe Sestak (D-Pa) now refuses to give any more info. He say's, "Anybody else has to decide on what they will say upon their role. That's their responsibility," when pressed for more. That's how normal people answer a question right? I wonder if he's gotten any calls since admitting this in February.

In the first quarter of 2010 the Federal government underwrote 96.5% of all new mortgages. The federal government is now almost the only place you can get someone to risk that the average American can and will pay back a loan on a home.

A recent study by the National Center for Policy Analysis says tax credits for small business in the recently crammed through Health Care Deform Bill will discourage small businesses from hiring new workers.

Another stimulus bill coming! This time, just like every other time it's for jobs. This time Obama and the Democrats promise unemployment won't go above 100%.

New Jersey Governor and ass kicker, Chris Christie vetoes a 'millionaires tax' passed by the NJ state legislature. He then denounced the idea that governments problems are caused by a lack of money.

Ninja's rescue student from muggers. That's right, actual ninjas.

Wal-Mart fires another employee for stopping a shoplifter.

Texas Rangers file for bankruptcy, due in part to giving Alex Rodriquez $252 Million. 

Mosque being built near the site of the World Trade Center in New York.

FCC says it has 'No Record' of any communication to or from the Chairman Julius Genachowski on Limbaugh, Savage, Hannity, Levin, Beck, or Ingraham. They don't need to single out individual hosts. They want to control the content of every radio station. 

A study from The Environmental Working Group indicates that sunscreens containing Vitamin A actually accelerate the growth of cancer cells.

A recent UN report says that "Climate Change' should now take a back seat to 'Saving Species.' Translation, 'they figured out the scam, get a new one quick.' Luckily the solution for 'Saving Species' is identical to the solutions for 'Climate Change.' If I didn't know better I'd think these people were up to something. But I know better, don't you. 

Historic buildings, Slave Cabins in NC, to be torn down due to code violations.

Scientists at Cornell University say overhearing a cell phone conversation is so annoying because to many people because we only get half the conversation.

Hard Rain Episode-0050 Obama Apologizes To China For Arizona Law.

Assistant Secretary of State Michael Posner apologizes to China for the Arizona Illegal-immigration law during recent talks on Human Rights. Apparently the Obama Administration considers executing prisoners to sell their organs on the black market to be a crime comparable in its horror only to a state that thinks it has the right to self governance and tries to enforce the law.

Hard Rain takes an actual look at the actual illegal immigration bill in actual Arizona.

The Arizona law is modeled on federal law. Any legitimate objection to the bill concerning discrimination would have already been raised at the federal level. People opposed to the AZ bill are simply against immigration laws being enforced. They knew the Federal government was not and would not enforce the law. But it looks like Arizona now will.

Seattle City Council votes unanimously to boycott Arizona over the illegal-immigration law. They also voted unanimously in 2007 to call for an end to the war in Iraq. As I'm sure you remember we left Iraq shortly thereafter. 

Reverend Jeremiah Wright returns! He claims in a letter that Obama, "threw me under the bus," and that Obama now considers him, "toxic."

Cass Sunstein on controlling speech on the internet. Spoiler alert! He's for it and even has little plans.

Who care's about Sunstein you ask? Supreme court nominee Elena Kagan does. She says of him, "Cass Sunstein is the preeminent legal scholar of our time. His work in any one of the fields he pursues...is singular and breathtaking."

Supreme Court Issues two major rulings. They rule that criminals deemed 'sexually dangerous' may be held indefinitely after serving their sentences. The other ruling says that minors cannot be given life sentences without parole for non-homicide crimes.

Election results: Rand Paul wins in Kentucky, Blanche Lincoln faces a runoff in Arkansas, and Democrats hold Murtha's seat in Pennsylvania. And the sweetest news of all? Arlen Spector loses in Pennsylvania primary. Don't let the door hit you on the way out Arlen.

Obama uses the visit of Mexican President Calderon to criticize the Arizona Illegal Immigration bill.

Does cell phone use cause cancer? UN spends $24 Million to find out and discovers... that they don't know.

In spite of not knowing if cell phones cause cancer right now the UN does know what will be happening in 40 years. Namely that all the fish in the ocean will die by 2050.

Hard Rain Episode-0048 Reality Rears It's Ugly Head In Times Square.

NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg speculates that the person behind the attempted Times Square Bombing could be someone, “Home-grown, maybe a mentally deranged person or somebody with a political agenda that doesn’t like the health care bill or something. It could be anything.”

Anything except the Muslim extremist it turned out to be.

Obama gives a commencement speech at the University of Michigan. Speaking to the graduates he says, "What troubles me is when I hear people say that all of government is inherently bad." 

Maybe he's refering to people like Thomas Paine, who said, "Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one." What an extremist. Probably a Ron Paul supporter or a Veteran.

Veterans put up a billboard calling out Rep. Phil Hare (D-Ill) for saying, "I don't worry about the Constitution." You can support them at Veterans4schilling.org.

Hard Rain Episode-0047 Sedition, Immigration, and Financial Reform Oh My!

Hard Rain returns after last weeks technical problems.

Joe Klein of Time magazine calls the words of Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin borderline "seditious." Then he wrote 10 columns about how great Obama is.

Arizona passes a law saying the law should be enforced. Scum from the gutter to the Oval Office immediately react. Some have even reacted with violent protests, I wonder what Joe Klein will say. I think he'll say something like, "Obama is great!"

Obama who hasn't lifted a finger in more than a year in office on immigration sprung into action immediately upon the passage of this law. He has instructed the Justice Department to look into "possible" civil rights violations. Fine, Mr. President. I don't support violating peoples civil rights either. But as you worry about "possible" civil rights violations, where is your concern over "actual" crimes. Drunk Driving, Murder, Human Trafficking, Drug Smuggling, etc? Where is the concern over "actual" crimes affecting "actual" citizens?

Another day, another accusation of racism by Democrats. That's life in Obama's America.

Obama plays the race card? 

Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) says he won't support global warming (is crap!) legislation if Democrats move forward on "Immigration Reform"

Tim Geithner admits he, "never had a real job." It shows Timbo.

Obama pushing hard for financial reform, complete with a convenient SEC lawsuit against Goldman Sachs. The most powerful man in the world gets up everyday and seeks more power for himself.

More Americans living abroad are renouncing their citizenship. I wonder what might have "changed" to cause this increase?

Obama heckled at a campaign event for Barbara Boxer (D-CA) over repealing 'don't ask, don't tell.'

National Security Adviser, Ret Gen. James L Jones makes a Jewish joke at the 25th Anniversary of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. I didn't get my invitation but it sounds like I missed a hell of an evening.

Osama bin Laden had 'no clue' America would respond to the 9/11 attacks as forcefully as it has.

Obama's favorite company, Caterpillar says business is booming in Asia-Pacific, and Latin American markets. America, not so good.

Courtney Love may sell the rights to Kurt Cobain's music so she can 'move on.' She also says the money is cursed. So what is she gonna sell the rights for? Cheese?

Hard Rain Episode-0045 I Don't Worry About The Constitution.

Democratic Congressman Phil Hare (D-Ill) doesn't worry about the Constitution. The dirtbag says so to a constituent who asks about the constitutionality of requiring people to buy health insurance. Of course now he's claiming that he was taken out of context. If there's one truism that all booger-eating liberals adhere to it's that Democrats are always taken out of context as surely as Republicans are always racist.

Another Congressman Frank Lobiondo (D-NJ) is quizzed on his knowledge of the Constitution by one of his constituents. Surprise, surprise he fails.  He mistakenly claims article 1, section 1 of the Constitution gives you the right to free speech, confusing it with the first amendment. Article 1, section 1 of the Constitution actually lays out the structure of Congress.

We take a look at Congresswoman Maxine Waters (D-CA) opinions of protesting the government now versus when George W Bush was president.

President Obama signs a nuclear disarmament treaty with Russia, reducing nuclear stockpiles by 1/3. At the very moment Obama starts the long process of disarming America, Iran promises to strike the US if attacked.

Federal courts rule against the FCC in their effort to impose rules referred to as 'net neutrality' on internet service providers. The court ruled the FCC does not have the authority to regulate the providers. I predict new legislation and new powers for the FCC as a result of this decision, it could be the beginning of the end of a relatively free and open internet.

As worries over the US dollar continue to mount around the world, several Arab states have gotten together to develop a new currency for buying and selling oil. Modeled on the Euro it is being referred to as the 'Gulfo.'

After horrific terrorist attacks on a Moscow subway, Russian President Medvedev promises "more cruel" measures will be taken against terrorists.

Professor James Lovelock, developer of the Gaia Theory, believes global warming is real and will be catastrophic. But he says there's nothing we can do about it.

Obama delays a forthcoming report on Social Security. No matter when it comes out it will say the same thing: There is no money.

The Tiger Woods crap is back. Will it ever end?

A new report says that almost half of all American households do not pay any federal income taxes. 50% of Americans in the cart, 50% pulling the cart.

Finally some good news. The economy added 162,000 jobs last month, while the unemployment rate remained at 9.7%.

In spite of this, initial jobless claims, people who have only recently been laid off work, jumped last week.

Things are particularly bad for young workers. They are defined as people under the age of 25 and they face an unemployment rate of nearly 20%.

As predicted last week another Obama deadline comes and goes. Now the vote is to be held on Sunday. It never ends with these locusts.

Obama pushing the idea that Americans aren't interested in the process. He even does an interview with Evil Fox News. He says, "I don't spend a lot of time worrying about what the procedural rules are in the House or the Senate." I think that goes for every Democrat in the House or the Senate.

Pelosi says its only the beginning. In fact she said, "once we kick through this door, there'll be more legislation to follow." Locusts.

President Obama now saying he wants the health care bill passed by March 18th. Democrats in the house are already rejecting the deadline saying it can't be done that fast. 

Massa Mess. Fans of Hard Rain might remember us talking about this guy in episode 0013. Good riddance. In spite of my fellings on Massa I have no problem believing the story about Rahm Emanuel in the gym shower. That kind of confrontational, aggressive style is exactly why Obama hired him.
