The top seven myths (lies!) of 2020

 A decent summation.  I would say they are lies rather than myths, because they were pushed by the Left as a way to defeat Trump and destroy America.

This country is shut down over lies, damned lies, and statistics

Use their lies to attack them.

So the Democrat American Communist Party has been using the Ebola outbreak to whine and complain that it was those mean old Republicans who are at fault because BUDGET CUTS or something.

Hit them back twice as hard, people.  TWICE!  AS!  HARD!

Attached [at the link above] is a CRS analysis of the actual NIH budget for the last several years in inflation adjusted (real) dollars. It’s worth noting that after the Republican takeover in ’94, the NIH budget rose until the Dems took over Congress in 2006. The Pelosi/Reid Congress was the first to flatline the NIH budget in nominal dollars.

HIT THEM!  And then HIT THEM AGAIN!

Hey, where'd all my money go?

Just keep this in mind while you're wondering where your paycheck went to - the rise of cost in food isn't counted into the "official" inflation rate.

And the cost of food is going sky high.

Who is Mark Shields

And how can someone this brainlessly moronic be allowed on national TV?

And the question about -- is not whether somebody stands for or against this, whether you even bring it up. And the reality is that in the United States of America in 2012, it's easier in many states to rent an automobile -- to buy an automatic weapon than it is to rent an automobile. It's more demanding.

The fact that this idiot was not immediately laughed off the stage is proof of just how far the Prog-Commie rot has spread through our country.  Automatic weapons have been illegal for anyone without a Class III license since 1934.  This lie, and it is a lie, wasn't even questioned by the brain-dead commie fucktards on PBS.  They accepted it without thinking, because that's what kool-aide guzzling douche-tools do.

That's because Warren Buffett is a god-damned hypocrite

Of COURSE he refuses to practice what he preaches!

Anyone who thinks that Warren Buffett is actually saying what he says out of altruism or patriotism needs to check themselves for kool-aide stains.  If he actually gave a shit about paying taxes, he would re-work his money funds to that he paid an actual INCOME TAX instead of investment taxes, which are taxed far lower than income.

But he won't do that.  Because he's a god-damned, gutless hypocrite.  That fucking tool.

Obama the Liar's speech, summarized

Blah blah blah blah whine snivel it's all BUSH'S FAULT, blah blah snivel whine YOU HATING HATERS blah blah whine whine snivel SARAH PALIN IS OF THE DEVIL blah blah snivel whine snivel it's all your fault that my GLORY doesn't shine through blah blah whine snivel BUSH BUSH BUSH blah snivel whine BUSH'S FAULT!

Oh, and in the midst of all that came the only true statement of the night. Unfortunately it did not come out of Obama's mouth, it came out of the mouth of SC congressman Joe Wilson.

And as for Juan McCain - if you spent half as much time defending your own side as you do attacking it, you might have just won the election back in 2008.

Burris 'welcomes' probes into Blagojevich contacts

Here we go again.

SPRINGFIELD, Ill. – An increasingly embattled Sen. Roland Burris said he "welcomes" the opportunity to answer renewed questions from authorities and elected officials about how he landed a coveted Senate appointment from ousted Gov. Rod Blagojevich.

It appears he'll have his chance.

Burris' admission that he had more contact with Blagojevich advisers about the Senate seat than he described under oath to a state House impeachment panel has prompted furious lawmakers to seek a criminal investigation into whether the Democrat committed perjury.

DUH he committed perjury.

How many more will fall?

Minn. Star Trib Publishes Help Wanted Ad For Anti-Military Story

Typical for the Strib:

This is really taking their quest to find stories that makes victims out of members of the U.S. military to the farthest degree! The Minneapolis Star-Tribune is apparently now resorting to advertising to dredge up women in the military “whose marriage is ending” for a story they want to write. There is really only one reason they’d want such examples and that is so that they can show that the military is hard on women so as to show the military in a bad light.

This is how (D)emocrats support the troops...

The earlier post by Steve B. in which he quotes a soldier:

"Man, if Clinton wins, it think we're going to start longing for the Carter years."

Is certainly related to this post at GatewayPundit

Sorry WaPo.. More Soldiers Committed Suicide When Clinton Was in Office Than During the Bush Years

The MainStreamMedia, and their 'political wing', the (D)emocrats, perpetually lie about those who serve.

The Consequences are quantifiable.

The NYTimes does a 'study' and "discovers"...

The NYTimes headline Across America, Deadly Echoes of Foreign Battles
by DEBORAH SONTAG and LIZETTE ALVAREZ

Shocka... Sweetness & Light notes the propaganda rag:

To compile and analyze its list, The Times conducted a search of local news reports, examined police, court and military records and interviewed the defendants, their lawyers and families, the victims’ families and military and law enforcement officials.

...Needless to say The Times has its usual “experts’ at the ready, like Dr. Robert Jay Lifton — who oddly enough writes anti-US books and even little screeds for the America-hating Nation magazine.

Color me surprised that the "study" fits the narrative of this, the most recent in a long list of frauds by the whores of the NYTimes.

Van Helsing points out the obvious, that American's who serve have a much lower probability of committing violent crime:

Move America Forward points out that despite putting seven researchers on the story, the Times was only able to find 121 cases of veterans who served in Iraq or Afghanistan committing murders in the USA. That comes out to a murder rate of 1.34 incidents per 100,000 vets per year. The murder rate for the general population is 5.80 per 100,000 per year. For men, it's 7.67 (all of the vet killers were male).

So logically... service in Iraq should be universal to lower violent crime rates?

Powerlineblog:

Do the math: the 121 alleged instances of homicide identified by the Times, out of a population of 700,000, works out to a rate of 17 per 100,000--quite a bit lower than the overall national rate of around 27.

But wait! The national rate of 27 homicides per 100,000 is an annual rate, whereas the Times' 121 alleged crimes were committed over a period of six years. Which means that, as far as the Times' research shows, the rate of homicides committed by military personnel who have returned from Iraq or Afghanistan is only a fraction of the homicide rate for other Americans aged 18 to 24. Somehow, the Times managed to publish nine pages of anecdotes about the violence wreaked by returning servicemen without ever mentioning this salient fact.

Taranto

Are they depraved on account of they were deployed? In fact, the Times's data are not sufficient to establish a correlation, much less a casual relationship, between stateside homicide and previous service in Afghanistan or Iraq.

To determine whether there's such a correlation, we'd need to know, in addition to the number of war vets charged with homicide, the corresponding figure for the general population, as well as the denominators--i.e., the number of war vets and the size of the population as a whole. A serious analysis would also take into account the demographic characteristics of the veteran population, which is disproportionately young and male. ...

What the Times has discovered, then, is a dramatic increase in the number of news reports in which homicide defendants are identified as servicemen or recent veterans. Does this mean that those who've served their country are more crime-prone now than they were in peacetime? Or does it mean that reporters are more prone to perpetuate the wacko-vet myth than they were during peacetime?

The Times is trying to prove the truth of a media stereotype by references to media reports. It might have proved nothing more than that it is a stereotype.

So the NYTimes has done a study and discovered the NYTimes is murdering our servicemen's reputation.

But, but, but....

Um, uh, everyone knows that our soldiers are dying in ChimpyMcHitlerburton's fake war! And it's a bunch of dumb minority soldiers who got suckered into fighting!

Or, ya know, not.

That's right, more soldiers died under Jimmah Cah-duh than under President Bush.

Damn, for all the rhetoric coming out of the Left, you'd think those numbers would be reversed. But it seems that them white folks keep dying at a higher rate than any poor oppressed minority. I guess that's one more talking point shot down. At this rate, the lying moonbats are going to have to actually do some thinking!

HA! I kill me. We all know the Left side of the political sphere doesn't actually think for themselves. Their masters think for them.

My goodness, it's the same for Afghanistan. The report I linked to also has statistics for Korea, Viet Nam, and WWII. Go take a look. It's always helpful to be mentally armed when dealing with a moonbat attack.
