    Okay… what IS it with our presidents needing to celebrate it a day early?

    Is there anything wrong with celebrating Cinco de Mayo on the freaking Cinco?

    You may have noticed this celebration is not on the Cinco de Mayo,” Bush said about the holiday, which celebrates Mexican troops’ defeat of a French army on May 5, 1862. “It’s on the Cuatro de Mayo. It’s such an important holiday we thought we would start early.”

    I can see that if it is a weekend thing. But not so here. I think it is bizarre. Actually, its bizarre that any presidents really take any time to recognize this holiday which, as I understand it, is only celebrated in one part of Mexico. I guess they too have bought into the Corona marketing juggernaut.

    Sinko De Mayo

    There are many stories related to the sinking of the Titanic Some have just come to light due to the success of the recent movie.

    For example, most people don’t know that back in 1912, Hellman’s mayonnaise was manufactured in England. The “Titanic” was carrying 12,000 jars of the condiment scheduled for delivery in Vera Cruz, Mexico, which was to be the next port of call for the great ship after New York City.

    The Mexican people were eagerly awaiting delivery and were disconsolate at the loss. So much so that they declared a national day of mourning which they still observe today. It is known, of course, as Sinko de Mayo.

    Or maybe he thought it was “Sinko de Cilantro?”

    In those states along the border, Cinco de mayo is no longer celebrated as a Mexican holiday in its traditional way. It has become more of a way for Mexicans, both legal and illegal, to justify coming to the U.S. and trying to take over everything. Many of them yell slogans that we stole this part of the U.S. from Mexico and they want it back. And since our government will not control our borders, they may succeed.

    My father’s side of the family is from Mexico. Chihuahua to be exact.

    Liberation from the French colonialist didn’t do much for the country. Ya ya ya. The “rag tag” army kicked the evil Europeans out of the country. And then the rag tags defiled their own people for the better part of 3 decades following this “great victory” that made the French look like Mother Theresa.

    The Mexican Revolution (led by Zapata and Villa) supplanted the tumor of “Mexican Rule” (elite europhiles) for a brief period until the “revolutionary government” murdered the two populist leaders. And then back to business as usual into present day.

    Cinco de Mayo is a sham. Mexico is a sham. Barry Soetoro is a sham.

    Because Michael Savage (who I personally don’t listen to) is “politically incorrect.”

    Britain also detained and denied entry to Geert Wilders for his “Islamophobic” statements.

    At the same time, they allow “youths” to parade in the streets with signs like this without repercussions.

    He looks drunk.

    Not reassuring to see the president drunk.

    A drunk Marxist/mohammedan/Community Organizer? Is that what we call diversity? He looks drunk, sounds drunk and the teleprompter is probably drunk-not that there is anything wrong with that.

    It would be fun seeing His Smugness going through the DTs

    But don’t drink the water while in D.C.

    How many times over the last year have we said “If George Bush said what Barack Obama said…”

    Sign, I’ll play.
    What would you on “the right” say if Obama negligently allowed jihadists to hijack domestic airplanes and allow them to fly into domestic targets like the World Trade Center? What if Obama, Clinton, and Gates were briefed about the possiblity of a planned domestic attack coordinated by a guy named Osama Bin Ladin? What if, after the attacks, Obama secured the known American relatives of Bin Ladin, and safely secured their flights out of the country? Really, what would you say? Would the word incompetence come out of your mouths? How about clueless, or WTF? Would Obama get the same nods of trust and encouragement while saving ALL of the blame for the previous administration? Do you really wanna make threads like this common along the lines of “What if Obama/Bush did x, y, and z”? Is it constructive? Are there better things to blog about?

    Rant over.

    I think we should retroactively celebrate Louis Riel Day by eating bison and drinking Labatts.

    If it will calm that Canadian who called me an idiot a few days ago…that reminds me, every time I answer my phone someone says, “Est-ce Frank?” (Yes, it’s my francophone.)

    I need more coffee, it’s still early out here in the ocean.

    This is a classic line fron The One:
    “We can remain the world’s leading importer of oil, or we can become the world’s leading exporter of clean energy”.
    How does The One propose to export energy?
    People are right, if Bush had said this they would have had a field day on what a dunce he is. But The One is given a constant pass.

    My point is, all things being equal, and if Obama behaved just like Bush, and his term(w. 9/11) followed a republican term. The right would be demanding investigations into Obama’s ties to the Bin Ladin family. They’d be seeking congressional hearings and perhaps impeachment, for Obama allowing 9/11 to happen on his watch.

    Since Bush was a republican, he got a “pass” on his actions before and immediately after 9/11, and instead you blame the democrat(Bill Clinton).

    Gaffes, incompetence, it’s all about perceptions and who is in office. The left piled on Bush, and the right piles on Obama. I can see through all of the B.S., and you should too. MM is a player so she creates he own B.S. pile, because a liberal is in office. Only the players on the Left made a continuous big deal of Bush’s gaffes.

    If Bush said “cinco de quatro, MM wouldn’t have a thread about it. Now that Obama says it, I doubt Huffpo has a thread about it. It’s all a bunch of “my team, your team” nanny, nanny boo-boo crap.

    If you’re so “above it all,” then why comment here? Why wallow in the mire of political gotcha’ w/ us, if you can “see through it” and apparently find it so offensive?

    FYI – from Susan Rice to Wendy Sherman to Richard Holbrook et. al, the people who were in charge when the 9/11 attackers gained entry and trained in this country, are now back in charge again.

    The prayerful concern is that this time, they remain vigilante and aware of those who would do this country harm.

    I stand corrected on Huffpo, although I doubt this will signal a turn to objective down the the middle righty-lefty criticism regarding gaffes.

    I don’t find if offensive. I find it stupid. Why comment here about it? I felt the urge to tell MM just how stupid her premise and this thread happens to be. She kindly allows criticism of her here, and I’ll do it when I feel the need, and praise her when I feel the need. She can yank my membership if she likes. You can skip my posts if you like.

    The whole “if Bush/Obama did it crap” is moronic, because it’s impossible not to look like a complete and utter hypocrite. Threads like this hit a nerve, so I feel the need to vent until I’m disinterested in venting.

     Understood. The Democrats get all of the blame on that horror show, nanny-nanny, boo boo.
