Hey,
I'm trying to make up for not posting so....yeah.
Meghan McCain had some choice words for Sarah Palin, former Rep. Tom Tancredo and the conservative Tea Party movement as a whole during her appearance Monday on ABC's "The View."
Meghan McCain had some choice words for Sarah Palin, former Rep. Tom Tancredo and the conservative Tea Party movement as a whole during her appearance Monday on ABC's "The View."
McCain, the daughter of Sen. John McCain known for occasionally parting ways with the views of her Republican dad, was particularly scathing in her assessment of Tancredo's speech on the opening day of the National Tea Party Convention on Thursday in Nashville. In the speech, Tancredo said people "who could not spell the word vote or say it in English" elected a "committed socialist ideologue" because the country does not require a "civics literacy test."
"It's innate racism, and I think it's why young people are turned off by this movement," McCain said. "And I'm sorry -- revolutions start with young people, not with 65-year-old people talking about literacy tests and people who can't say the word vote in English."
Though speakers at the convention repeatedly rejected the "racist" label during the three-day event and held sessions on ways to attract young activists to their cause, McCain pointed to Tancredo's speech as a sign of what's wrong with the Tea Party movement.
"This rhetoric will continue to turn off young voters, and anybody that says different is smoking something -- period," she said.
McCain also criticized her father's former running mate for comments she made during an interview with "Fox News Sunday."
In the interview, Palin suggested that President Obama could improve his re-election chances by declaring war on Iran.
"You should never go to war unless it's the absolute last circumstance," McCain said on "The View."
On "Fox News Sunday," Palin also called for White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel to "step down," in part for using the word "retarded" in a strategy session last year which only recently became public -- but at the same time, Palin defended conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh's use of the word as "satirical."
McCain said that assessment is "exactly what is wrong with politics today." "We can't placate and say Democrats can say one thing and Republicans can say another thing," she said. (source)
Ah, Meghan McCain, please shut up.
She seriously has no idea what she's talking about. I seriously think it's another desperate attempt for attention. Like most people in the spotlight, they say whatever they want just to see if it will catch someone's eye. And, um, it usually does. Unfortunately.
The way to fix illiteracy idea--which I think is absolutely brillant--is not even half racist. This has nothing to do with racism. I think they're just afraid Obama and idiots--oh, am I racist now?--like him won't be able to cheat their way into office.
An example of why we need this?
I heard this from an friend: She knew someone who was working at the polls, and a woman came in who could not read. And she asked the woman to tell her which one was for Obama.
HOW CRAZY IS THAT!???
I feel like Glenn Beck right now; the blood is going to start shooting out of my eyes. (dramatic, much?)
If this great thing had gone through before the 2008 elections, maybe our country wouldn't have gone done the toilet as much as it has. I mean, we our country has so much potential, why trash it?
She needs to stop trashing Palin. Palin is 5x the woman Meghan will ever be. At least she can talk normally (see the video at the bottom of the post) And as well, Palin should stop going out for McCain. If this is all the better his bratty daughter can treat her, why bother? As well, McCain's too progressive for Sarah's beliefs.
And, um, call me crazy, but do you see Republicans getting off easy? Hardly. If anything, it's like the Dems have immunity against anything. The case of Blago, for instance, if that had happened to a Republican it would have been 6 times the scandal. Republicans get punched in the nose too often, while the Dems get hugs and kisses just as often. It's ridiculous.
Sarah was right about Emmanuel, he needs to step down. Yep.
So, you skipped down to the video, huh? haha here it is. Glenn was absolutely hilarious this morning. Yeah, I heard it in the car. Pretty awesome, huh?
So comment and let me know whatcha think...
Y'ello,
It's me, yeah, sorry about my absense. Ya know, school's purty demanding... sorry.
Anywho...
The Senate blocked President Obama's nominee for the National Labor Relations Board on Tuesday, as Democrats fell short of the 60 votes needed to break a Republican-led filibuster.
Two Democrats, Sen. Blanche Lincoln of Arkansas and Ben Nelson of Nebraska, broke with their party to vote against Craig Becker in the key procedural vote, which failed 52-33.
The vote also was significant for displaying the GOP's newfound muscle, as it came days after Republican Scott Brown of Massachusetts was sworn in as the newest senator, breaking the Democrats' 60-vote supermajority -- though the measure would have failed even without Brown's help, given Lincoln's and Nelson's no votes.
Republicans have held up Becker's confirmation for months. They say Becker would push an aggressive union agenda at the agency that referees labor disputes between unions and management. Brown said Tuesday he couldn't vote in favor of Becker.
"My first priority in coming to Washington is to create jobs and put people back to work," he said in a written statement. "Craig Becker's theories about how the workplace should function, if ever put into practice, would impose new burdens on employers, hurt job creation and slow down the recovery."
On Monday night, Nelson had announced he would join the filibuster, a rare move for the conservative Nebraska Democrat, who is fond of saying that having been a governor responsible for choosing his own nominees, he gives great leeway toward a president's choices.
Only in "extraordinary circumstances" does Nelson join a filibuster, he said, a defining phrase that arose from a 2005 judicial nominations impasse.
Many Republicans say they believe Becker has his own agenda when it comes to so-called "card check" legislation, a proposal that would make it easier for workers to unionize. Nelson said he agrees.
This legislation has been stalled since it was first proposed. Sen Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, chairman of the Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee, is the point man for finding a compromise, working with Democratic Sens. Mark Pryor of Arkansas, Arlen Specter of Pennsylvnia and others.
Nelson has said he is opposed to the Employee Free Choice Act, the formal name for the bill.
"Mr. Becker's previous statements strongly indicate that he would take an aggressive personal agenda to the NLRB, and that he would pursue a personal agenda there, rather than that of the administration," Nelson said.
"In addition, the nominee's statements fly in the face of Nebraska's Right to Work laws, which have been credited in part with our excellent business climate that has attracted employers and many good jobs to Nebraska," he continued. "Considering these matters, I will oppose the upcoming cloture motion and the nomination."
The five-member National Labor Relations Board is responsible for deciding cases under the National Labor Relations Act.
Yea, Republicans! Way to finally get a backbone against these Dems! Maybe getting Scott Browne in--as aprehensive as I was--isn't gonna be so bad after all. Maybe it's finally giving you a much needed confidence boost. It's nice to see something that needs to be blocked, um, blocked. Kinda sorta shows Bam and Crew something along the lines of that Twisted Sister song, "We're not gonna take it. No, we're not gonna take. We're not gonna take it anymore."
I know I'm probably getting excited 'bout nothing, but it's fun to get excited about nothing. :)
Yeah, ya know, these are the times when I'm proud to be a Republican (though I am really a Conservative, but hey, who cares? :D)
Hey:
DId you hear that Obama's "shifting his goals" for the second year? He's going to concentrate less on health care (which I think has something *cough* a lot *cough* to do with Browne getting in office). So, what's he going to do?? COncentrate on education reformation (eh...not so sure 'bout this one) and job tax cuts. (really not sure 'bout that one)
He might be loosening his grip on this crazy dream of socalized health care for the moment, but in a few months or next year...ha, we'll see.
Wow, don't I sound optimistic? :)
I'm sorry but when we have a communist prez with seriously misguided ideals, would you rather I go around skipping and telling you it's all good? (Do you think I'm a lib? That's purty much what I just described...)
Ah, such turbulent times...don't forget to laugh though. It is the best medicine.
Here's the newest video from Steven, hope it brightens your day...till you turn on the tv. :)
Hey,
So, as I promised, I'm going to talk (more like ramble) about To Save a Life.
Well, I went to go see it over the weekend, and my major advice to the girls who go see this BRING KLEENEX!!! Seriously, I was like bawling. Tragic...
So, the stories about this awesome got-it-all-together basketball star (High School Musical esque-ish) who's extremely popular and forgot all about his childhood bestie. Ya know, the swap out the old friend with the hot girlfriend and idiotic jocks as friends.
His friend, in 6th grade, saved him from an oncoming car, taking a blow to his leg, resulting in a permanent limp. Which then lets Jake (the jock) go on to be a basketball maniac.
Eventually, one day at school, Roger (the limping past-bestie) pulls a gun out and begins firing. Jake cautions him not to do anything, but Roger *spoiler* commits suicide.
So, then Jake's all blue about the whole thing (if he wasn't I'd be worried). One thing leads to another, and he starts going to church, his supposed friends leave him (cuz he's too CHristian for them) etc.
His life falls apart, and he finds God. Ya know...
The best part of this movie is Doug Moore played by *drum roll*...Steven Crowder. Yeah, my favorite political commentator. He plays the jerk of a best friend guy. It was nice to see him on a bigger screen then my computer for longer than 4 minutes.
The movie is def worth seeing. It has a good Christian perspective on things teens get shoved at them on a daily basis.
So, go see it if the last sentence piqued your interest...or you just wanna see Steven for a bit. His arms are lot more muscular then his vids let on. bahaha
But as a final note, the movie is a sobering look at what the lure of popularity can sometimes lead to.
I love you!!!

(I'm tired of closing my posts the same dorky way.)
Hey:
Um, this is just kinda random before I start getting into politics and stuff, but if you see this post before January 30th, 2010, could you shoot me an e-mail at conservativeteen101@gmail.com I just wanna know if anybody's actually reading this thing...:)
Anywho...
An employee at a Philadelphia branch of ACORN, the national community organization under fire for allegations of wrongdoing, has filed a lawsuit in federal court against the two filmmakers who set off the controversy last fall with their undercover videos.
The civil lawsuit filed Thursday in the U.S. District Court in Philadelphia accuses the filmmakers, James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles, of illegally recording their conversation with the worker, Katherine Conway-Russell, and then publicizing the videos, which Conway-Russell says "caused emotional distress, harm and injury." Conway-Russell is featured in one of several videos recorded by O'Keefe and Giles, who posed as a pimp and prostitute and visited ACORN offices around the country with a hidden camera. The videos, released initially through the conservative Web site BigGovernment.com, showed ACORN employees seeming to offer to help the couple skirt tax and housing laws while setting up a brothel.
Conway-Russell, an office director with ACORN Housing Corporation since March 2008, accuses O'Keefe and Giles of visiting the Philadelphia office July 24 to "entrap ... employees into engaging in inappropriate counseling," adding that she made clear to them that she could only offer assistance with "mortgage possibilities." The lawsuit doesn't go into details of the conversation.
It's hardly the first time ACORN or its employees have responded to the controversy over its operations by suing.
The organization filed a lawsuit in Baltimore in late September accusing the filmmakers and BigGovernment.com of illegally recording conversations at a Baltimore ACORN office and then posting them online. And in November, representatives for ACORN sued the federal government in an attempt to regain the millions of dollars in funding the community organizing group lost after Congress responded to the undercover videos by voting to block the funding. ACORN also has faced allegations of voter fraud during the 2008 presidential election.{source}
Hm, have I ever said anything before about the fact that libs and lib organizations are like little children? Uh, yeah, like a billion times.
In case you've forgotten...
They just hate it when they get caught. Little Billy sticks the gum in Sally's hair and then blames Sally for biting his Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle action figure. And then Sally gets unfairly punished.
Like here, why should the Hannah and James get sued?
Deep down, I think ACORN's afraid of them. Mm-hmm, I do.
Hannah and James, in fact, did us a favor. They proved our worst fears; ACORN is dangerous. Those rumors we've heard about aren't just fairy tales; they're real.
I really think we should try and stop this lawsuit before it goes any further. This is so unjustified (big word, huh?) that it's just almost crazy. You know, these people could use a little support.
These seriously sick, twisted, racist organiziations need to be stopped. If some republicans had been in ACORN (just pretend here) sure as heck they'd be sued.
Preferencial treatment, much???
Just in case you were wondering, here's a twitter page for Hannah http://twitter.com/defendhannah
They haven't updated in a while, but yeah...
So, as a final note, I'm a-gonna see To Save a Life tomorrow!!! So excited! Steven Crowder's in it, uh-huh. Yea!!! I'm probably gonna cry, but, ha, what's new? I'll try and put a review of it at some point.
Wouldn't it be cool if Steven found my blog? I think so..:D
Love, Palin, and Crowder..
-CT-
XOXO
Give me a V! Give me a I! Give me a C! Give me a T! Give me an O! Give me an R! Give me a Y!
What's that spell? VICTORY!!!
I know I shouldn't be getting so excited about Scott Brown winning, but seriously when you think about it, it's purty ah-mazing. I mean, MA is such a lib state that the fact a Republic won is earth shattering. Is MA not notorious for being, well, as my parents call them "pointy-headed libs?" Just stereotyping? Nah.
Here's what foxnews.com says, With 97 percent of precincts reporting, returns showed Brown leading Coakley 52-47 percent, by a margin of 120,000 votes.
As amazing and wonderful--cuz it sends a message to Bam and the Crew that we're not happy 'bout their changes--as this is, I have to admit, now we have a serious prob. Either way--dem or repub--we would be in deep trouble. Now, with the Republican in, they don't have the 60 majority they needed. So, now they're gonna try and ram through this health care bill from hell--look at Canada, folks--in. They've even talked about trying to get it through before Brown even gets to Washington. Conviving much? So, the little brats in Washington are trying to ruin YOUR lives as best they can. (Mother's heavy hand, ya know) As good as this is, it's like eating a cookie.'Kay, so, you eat the cookie. No biggie, oui? Well, then you eat 58 more. Now they may have tasted very good at the time, but now you don't feel good. So, you take 1 Pepto Bismol and momentarily you feel better. But before you can feel 100%, you puke up the cookies. Gross, I know, but doesn't it get the point across? The current congress is the cookies, Brown is the Pepto, etc. I know you're not dumb, I'm just making sure, 'kay?
For tonight, rejoice that MA finally made a good decision (after having Kennedy in for waaaaaaaaaayyyy too long). But tomorrow, snap back to reality and realize that Washington is bound and determined. They're not gonna stop at anything to get this bill through. So we need to go all Lord of the Rings on 'em and kill some Orc. :) "Meat's back on the menu, boys!" If you catch my drift...(I'm not suggesting we kill Congress, just clean House.)
But, yeah. So... Love, Palin, and Crowder... -Conservative Teen XOXO
WASHINGTON — Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid apologized on Saturday for saying the race of Barack Obama – whom he described as a "light skinned" African-American "with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one" – would help rather than hurt his eventual presidential bid.
Obama quickly accepted, saying "As far as I am concerned, the book is closed." Reid, facing a tough re-election bid this year, spent the day telephoning civil rights leaders and fellow Democrats in hopes of mitigating the political damage.
The revelations about Reid's 2008 comments were included in the book "Game Change" by Time Magazine's Mark Halperin and New York magazine's John Heilemann. The behind-the-scenes look at the 2008 campaign that elevated Obama to the White House is based on the writers' interviews with more than 200 sources, most of whom were granted anonymity and thus much of the material could not be immediately corroborated. Among the details in the book:
_ Presidential rival Hillary Rodham Clinton said she believed Obama's team had used out-of-state supporters to win the Iowa caucuses and had intentionally exploited Obama's race. She said the country faced a "a terrible choice" between Obama and Republican nominee John McCain.
_ Obama and running mate Joe Biden barely spoke, kept separate schedules and seldom campaigned together. The campaign kept Biden off the nightly calls that included Obama, instead having the campaign manager and senior strategist brief Biden separately.
_ Aides to McCain described the difficulties they faced with their vice presidential pick, then-Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin. Steve Schmidt, a senior adviser to McCain, is quoted telling Palin's foreign policy tutors: "You guys have a lot of work to do. She doesn't know anything."
_ Former President Bill Clinton's efforts to persuade Sen. Edward M. Kennedy to endorse his wife's presidential bid fell flat when Clinton told the Democratic lawmaker that just a few years ago, Obama would have been serving the pair coffee.
But what caused the biggest stir Saturday was the Reid statement.
"He (Reid) was wowed by Obama's oratorical gifts and believed that the country was ready to embrace a black presidential candidate, especially one such as Obama – a 'light-skinned' African American 'with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one,' as he later put it privately," according to the book.
After new excerpts from the book appeared on the Web site of The Atlantic, Reid released a statement expressing regret for "using such a poor choice of words. I sincerely apologize for offending any and all Americans, especially African-Americans for my improper comments."
Obama issued a statement saying he had spoken with Reid, who faces a difficult re-election amid frustration from both liberals and conservatives with his leadership in the Senate and his agenda. For Reid, not faring well in polls, the comments can't help, even as Obama relies heavily on him to try to pass a health care overhaul.
Reid's office said he had also phoned to apologize to civil rights leaders, including the Rev. Al Sharpton; NAACP Chairman Julian Bond and Leadership Conference on Civil Rights president and chief executive officer Wade Henderson, as well as veteran political operative Donna Brazile. Reid also spoke with Reps. Barbara Lee, D-Calif., and Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., both African-Americans.
The leaders quickly fell in line supporting Reid.
"While there is no question that Senator Reid did not select the best word choice in this instance, these comments should not distract America from its continued focus on securing healthcare or creating jobs for its people," Sharpton said.
Clyburn, part of the House's Democratic leadership, also supported Reid despite the comments.
"Sen. Reid's apology for his private assessment of President Obama's candidacy should be accepted and our time and energy should be devoted to helping him overcome current obstacles to job creation, health care reform and energy independence," Clyburn said.
Aides to Obama, the Clintons and Biden declined to discuss details of the book.
Palin's spokeswoman, Meg Stapleton, disputed the version presented in the reporters' book.
"The governor's descriptions of these events are found in her book, 'Going Rogue.' Her descriptions are accurate," Stapleton said in a statement to "60 Minutes," which is featuring the book in a Sunday broadcast. "She was there. These reporters were not."
In 2002, Republican Majority Leader Sen. Trent Lott lost his leadership position for racially charged language; the Mississippi lawmaker said that if then-Sen. Strom Thurmond's 1948 pro-segregation presidential bid had been successful, the country would have been better off.
Obama has accepted apologies about past comments in the past that might be considered racially insensitive.
In 2007, Biden called Obama "the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy."
And Biden was later invited to be Obama's running mate.
Yeah, I bet you knew I'd start ranting about this sooner or later, huh? In my mind, of course, I think he should resign.
It's not only due to his racist, unncessary comments. (I'm not trying to defend Obama cuz he's on the road to Socialism) The other part is he is a seriously sick, twisted dude.
Have you looked at his beliefs?
1. He supports illegal immigration.
2. He's dead set on Stem-Cell research (unncessary spending, dude)
(Those are just some examples of his beliefs, I'm not in the mood to type 'em all out.)
And as well, he's been in the senate since 1987! 1987, for crying out loud! You know, the senate is like a bacteria. And a really disgusting one at that. I mean, we have socialists, communists, racists, elitist dems, and pretty much a bunch of ding-dongs. No offense of course.
Anyways, the bacteria keeps growing and spreading, trying to gain more control, overpowering the little people. Harry Reid and many others have been in office way too long. I think we need to clean house every once in a while. Ya know, get rid of the bacteria, and get some antibiotics in there. (aka, Conservatives, good conservatives, at that. No more of this wishy-washy RHINO, Blue Dog crud.)
I really think for the first time in a while, Michael Steele (head of Republican Party) has a good idea. Let's make Reid resign. Seriously, so far, let's see, Anita Dunn and Van Jones have, so why not get some other dummies out of there.
I really wish I could vote. The next election, the responsibility for how far our country sinks is up to you. I know that seems heavy, but we can complain and whine about the senate all we want, but if we vote for charming dude who really has fake values which are no more than an illusion. Listen folks, if he sounds too good to be true, chances are...
Well, yeah so um, vote wisely...and um, don't drink and drive...and always wear your seatbelt...don't smoke.
Whatever...

Hey:
Sorry for not writing like all month, but I am finally on CHRISTmas break. It's 'bout time, seriously.
So, what's been going on in politics?
Let's see..
The libs have been vehement in making sure the health care gets passed with the lie of public option in there
Nebraska is exempt from the rules of the bill
Abortion is still in there (whether they admit it or not)
Obama almost didn't put up a nativity scene (wow, he really is determined to not make this a Christian nation, isn't he?)
Anita Dunn has resigned (seriously lady, if you had even a pea-sized noggin you wouldn't be goin' around talking about Tsung your hero, or how you manipulated the media during the campaign. Even John Edwards isn't that dumb. Or maybe not...)
Van Jones has resigned (Thanks to the ever-awesome Glenn Beck on both of those)
Obama's NOT taking the troops of Iraq. (He sure keeps his promises, doesn't he?)
Tiger Woods keeps digging a deeper hole for himself (Yeah, it's not really news, but people seem to treat it as if it is)
Brittney Murphy suddenly died (I bet it's drugs, don't you? She's had like five hubbies. Crazy...seriously)
Carrie Underwood got engaged (dude, congrats)
So that should purty much recap what I should have been blogging about this month.
CT
P.S. Steven Crowder's new video will be up on 12-21-09 around 7:00-ish (central time)
You know what really ticks me off? Happy holidays. Gag me with a spoon.
Is Christmas really so bad?
Stupid athetists. But, what really makes me mad, is how Kwanza, a made up holiday, is now cool. I remember watching this Arthur special, hehe, where Arthur told Buster he should make up a holiday. Something else which makes me laugh, Steven Crowder, yes the conservative dude of awesomeness, played Brain in that movie. And Brain, Crowder, raps about Kwanza. That still makes me laugh.
So, according to the world now, we are celebrating the holidays, we put up Christmas trees, and Santa comes on Christmas Eve...no matter how hard they try, there comes that pesky little word Christmas. Hm, who's losing now?
They can try and take Christmas out of everything but I don't think its possible. We've been celebrating Christmas for such a long time now, that not celebrating it would be like not kissing your girlfriend/boyfriend wife/husband on New Years Eve. (I know dumb example but what'd you want me to say? Easter without the Easter Bunny? I'd love that, cuz HE'S NOT REAL! Speakin' of which they took God out of that holiday too. Shocker! I think not, there are no surprises with them, truthfully.)
So, here's an idea for you, when you're at the store and the clerk tells you Happy Holidays, tell him Merry Christmas with a smile and watch his reaction. You might be surprised.
Oh, just so you know, everytime some dumb commercial says, Happy Holidays, my sis and I correct the tv.
Yep, that's just how we roll...and I don't care that the Jonas Brothers have a song with the same title. "They suck anyways." (New Moon spoof by Evil Iguana. Hil-ar-ious.)
So...Merry CHRISTmas.

Hey:
I just realized, looking over my posts, that I never really write about politics anymore. Strange...
So, time to break that streak...
Here is global warming...
While the world's politicians argue in Copenhagen, some scientists are speaking out at an alternative "skeptics' conference."
More than 50 scientists, businessmen and lobby groups met to discuss alternative theories about global warming and climate change, reports the Telegraph. The paper highlights a few scientists, including Professor Henrik Svensmark, a physicist at the Danish National Space Center in Copenhagen, who said the recent warming period was caused by solar activity. svensmark saidthat the last time the world experienced such high temperatures, during the medieval warming period, the Sun and the Earth were in a similar cycle.
Professor Nils-Axel Morner, a geologist from Stockholm University, said sea-level rise has also been exaggerated by the "climate alarmists" using computer models.
He said observational data from lake sediments, coast lines and trees show sea levels have remained stable.
Okay, this is nuts. If these scientists think the temps are rising need to come to the Midwest. I am up to my knees in snow and my fingers are numb from shoveling. They've made too much money off these lies to tell the truth, and that's why they keep coming up with this stuff. They know its not really getting that much warmer. But Al Gore's raking it in, the scientists are raking it in, ya get the picture. I really don't like it that they keep coming up with these ideas, and people keep buying it. Were those e-mails not enough proof? They even said that they really didn't believe this stuff. Sometimes I seriously wonder if these scientists sit on their little behinds thinking up different stupid ideas. I mean, now we're blaming the "cycle." What's next? Wait, I take that back I do not want to know. Ah, well, that's that. These scientists are crazy.
Hey:
Have you noticed politics are always depressing? Yeah, me too. Now, I know I could be just like Glenn Beck and make you grab the pills, but I'm not like that. Sorry, if you're disappointed, and you wanted some hard-hitting news story that makes your jaw drop. Not tonight.
No, tonight I heard Obama's approval rating dropped down to 47%. Wow, there's some change...for him. :)
So, in honor of this unforeseen (bahaha I saw this a looong time ago) drop-age, I have a special song for him.
It is a spoof of the song by the ever-awful Fergie. Now, keep in mind, I've never actually listened to the full song, but have heard my cousin sing it, and looked up the CLEAN (emphasis on clean) lyrics. Not to worry, this song is kid friendly. What now, Ferg? That's more than she and will.i.am can do. haha
Here we blow:

President Obama's plans for seeking an international agreement at a U.N. climate change conference next week sound precariously similar to his plans for pitching Chicago as the host city for the 2016 Summer Olympics two months ago.
At both meetings, the president scheduled very brief appearances, planning to arrive early and be long gone before any decision was reached. And, coincidentally, the destination in both cases was Copenhagen, Denmark.
Obama's first visit ended in decisive failure, with Rio de Janeiro winning the bid. So is the president setting himself up for a repeat? Or is he facing down his Denmark demons and looking to get his mojo back?
Patrick Michaels, former president of the American Association of State Climatologists and environmental fellow at the Cato Institute, said he has his doubts.
"The president is carrying nothing credible in his pocket, so how can he compel people to do something credible?" he said, referring to the fact that Congress has not passed its cap-and-trade bill.
Obama has traveled abroad extensively -- to summits and conferences and high-level meetings -- since taking office. Those trips have produced a slew of agreements and announcements, but little concrete action. And on some of the biggest issues of the world stage -- the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the Iranian nuclear program among them -- the president's approach has yielded little progress.
Analysts say that while Obama might help strike a broadly worded deal in Copenhagen, a legally binding replacement for the 1997 Kyoto Protocol may be just as unlikely after his visit as before.
Sen. Jim Webb, D-Va., reminded the president of his limits in a letter he sent to the White House last week after Obama announced he would travel to Copenhagen and lay out America's goals for cutting greenhouse gas emissions by 17 percent from 2005 levels by 2020.
"I would like to express my concern regarding reports that the administration may believe it has the unilateral power to commit the government of the United States to certain standards that may be agreed upon (in Denmark). ... The phrase 'politically binding' has been used," Webb wrote. "As you well know from your time in the Senate, only specific legislation agreed upon in the Congress, or a treaty ratified by the Senate, could actually create such a commitment on behalf of our country."
Michaels said that letter alone hurts Obama's efforts in Copenhagen, since it could confirm delegates' suspicions that the president may not be prepared to hold up the United States' end of any grand bargain.
Heather Conley, senior fellow with the Center for Strategic and International Studies, said Obama's travel schedule could also dim his chances of success.
The president plans to stop by on Dec. 9, before heading to Oslo to collect the Nobel Peace Prize the next day. But the climate conference lasts two weeks, from Dec. 7-18.
"The timing is off," Conley said. "He's going to be there the second or third day of the beginning of the negotiations. Political leaders are a bit flummoxed because they don't know how to incorporate President Obama's visit to Copenhagen, which they applaud, but it's not quite in the right sequence to make a concrete agreement possible."
She said any agreement would come at the "very end" of the conference, not the beginning.
The White House said the timing of the president's visit is immaterial.
"I think the president believes that that visit happening at the beginning is just as important as it would be at any point to getting that deal going quicker," White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said.
Many officials at home and abroad have praised Obama effusively for his decision to attend the climate change summit and lay out U.S. targets.
Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., said in a statement that Obama's pitch "could be one hell of a global game changer." "The fact that the president will attend the Copenhagen talks underscores that the administration is putting its money where its mouth is, putting the president's prestige on the line," Kerry said.
That's a dangerous place for the president's prestige to be, given what happened last time in Copenhagen. The president's other international trips have yielded mixed results.
Obama's eight-day trip through Asia last month didn't result in any concrete victories for the United States, though the president said his talks with Asian leaders could spur economic growth.
In a positive sign, China and Russia -- two nations Obama has reached out to -- later joined the United States and other Western nations in condemning Iran's nuclear activities. But Iran then turned around to declare defiantly that it would develop 10 more nuclear sites.
With Russia, Obama's travels yielded a number of agreements, including a pledge to cooperate more fully on bringing security to Afghanistan and a transit agreement allowing U.S. military equipment and supplies to travel through Russia on their way to Afghanistan.
The two countries also put out a statement setting out target limits for warheads and delivery systems, guiding negotiations for a new treaty to replace the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty.
But that effort has slowed, with administration aides now admitting that both countries will probably need a "bridge" agreement because a new deal won't be hammered out before the current treaty expires Dec. 5.
Elsewhere, the April G-20 summit in London resulted in a pledge for more than $1 trillion in financing to the International Monetary Fund and other institutions. And during the summertime G-8 meeting in Italy, industrialized nations pledged to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 80 percent by 2050.
But a Kyoto successor is what the international community is focusing on when it comes to climate change. And the split is wide between developed countries like the United States and developing countries like India and China, which are hesitant to commit to binding targets.
The fact that the Senate has not yet followed the House's lead in passing a U.S. climate change bill puts Obama in a potentially weakened position in Copenhagen.
Michaels predicted "a lot of comprehensive hot air" in otherwise chilly Denmark.
"A breakthrough will be claimed when in fact none will exist," he said.source
Well, bet you're happy; I'm political again!
See, the prob with Obama is he's charming but full of confetti. There is nothing to his word. It's like promising you I'll tell you my real name and phone number. Heck no!
He thinks he's so swauve all the time. "I'm a-gonna charm you." He reminds me of a peacock at times. Just flauting his socalist feathers, which he'd deny of course. But, eh.
This is so stupid, seriously, a climate change confrence? Seriously? While we're at it, why don't we have a chocolate chip cookie confrence. Hey, they both matter about the same amount, in my 'pinion, at least.
Like the Olympic bid, I disagree w/ this idea. Hey, what do I agree with Obama about?
You probably heard about Tiger (i always wanna type Tigger) Woods' affair. I should probably rant about the fact that there are barely any sane athletes left, that he's probably gonna lose fans and sponsers, and that he made a bad choice. But I'm not going to.
I'm just going to say one thing: leave him alone. He made a mistake, so let's not meddle in his personal life. Sure, it's interesting, but how does it impact your life?
Just some food for thought...
