Snort-worthy spectacle of the day: Valerie Jarrett decrying “extreme” GOP
Yes, the woman who bragged about recruiting Marxist rabble-rouser Van Jones is lambasting conservatives for spurning radical leftist ACORN/Big Labor embracer Dede Scozzafava:
White House senior adviser Valerie Jarrett said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that the rise of a Conservative Party challenger in a closely watched upstate New York House election shows that the Republican Party leadership is “becoming more and more extreme, and more and more marginalized.”
“It’s rather telling when the Republican Party forces out a moderate Republican and it says, I think, a great deal about where the Republican Party leadership is right now,” Jarrett said when asked about the GOP candidates’ decision to suspend her campaign, making it more likely the Conservative will win Tuesday’s special election.
No, Ms. Jarrett, you will not be allowed to dictate what “moooooderate” Republicanism is.
There is nothing moderate about Scozzafava.
And there is nothing mainstream about you.
Now, that’s enough to give you the real heebie-jeebies.

weird, Newt and Steele endorse the DIABLO but the “Republican Party leadership” forced her out.
ooh, that makes Ms. Malkin, Ms. Palin and Glenn Beck the RP leadership!
congrats! (is that a promotion or demotion?)
Of course she’s bitter and upset. By failing her primary reason for being in the White House, winning the 2016 Olympics for Chicago, her dreams of cashing out her Chicago slum properties for hundreds of millions in personal profit have vanished. She desperately needs to find another purpose justifying her mysterious role in the WH but she is totally inept when operating outside of the shadows. Even the WH crowd will soon feel embarrassed answering the obvious question that the media should be asking: “Exactly what does she do?” She is even more clueless than the gaffetastic Joe Biden.
That woman is totally delusional…just like the rest of the marxist radicals in the WH. I watched Meet the Press this a.m. and the guy who ran Obama’s campaign was on. Another delusional idiot. The scary part is that you could tell he totally believed everything he said. These people have the fervor of dictators and they will not go down easily! If you get a chance later, see if this morning’s Meet the Press is on You Tube and watch it. This is what we are dealing with and it ain’t pretty.
What scares me is that patriotic Americans going to TEA Parties is called “radical” and “frightening” (by Pelosi) & the kook birds running the PEOPLES’ House are considered the new “normal”. I must be living in a parallel universe; which I never believed existed until 10 months ago!
They must have used a very large prime mover to move the rock this piece of slime crawled from under.
Do not forget Rush Limbaugh-he not only rules the Republican Party but the World too-the Sissies said so. But now that we have been warned by Iran’s-and Mayor Daley’s- Representative to the Great Satan we must turn to the “moderates” of the Party. I always thought Ronald Regan was as moderate as I wanted to be.

Remember: If you must Feed the Trolls feed them to the alligators
This corruptocrat should enjoy her fleeting moments of fame. The more she is in the public eye, the dumber she sounds. Welcome to SDS (students for a democratic society) running the country. When I was on campus other students avoided these clowns like the plague. They were more interested in their radical ideas than studying. None had difficult majors. BHO was picked by these clowns because he’s “polished” not “brilliant”. The things they do the best are lie and cheat.
From the Watertown Paper -
“During the day Saturday, she began to quietly and thoughtfully encourage her supporters to vote for Democrat William L. Owens.”
This is disturbing.
A simple yet unsubstantiated assertion. No person is quoted. Scozzafava has neither confirmed or denied this. There isn’t even a “sources said” in the article.
Yet, it is an editorial, and amounts to an opinion piece. So, maybe it should be taken with a grain of salt.
Though, if true and acceptable to make this assertion, then what else is true and acceptable in the editorial is that it endorses the Democrat using other assertions. Thank goodness it is only an opinion piece and not necessarily true or acceptable.
Heck, it may very well be true, but shouldn’t the assertion be backed up with proof?
Here’s the link to zyzzyg’s quote.
So much for being a moderate, loyal Republican.
the so called elites(newt) seem to have too many moonlight walks with Al Sharpton and sit downs with Nancy Pelosi discussing massive taxes against the American people….the eleven that put forth scuzzy have some “splainin’” to do….has the Soros money reached every corner of politics.. McLame got his cut during the amnesty kerfuffle, and me thinks “they” all want a piece of Soros’s bottomless (taxpayer) pit. Michael Steele can’t be as ineffective as he has appeared….two years to install a new mediocre website….hip hop, what’s up…..I hope all of their checks will be cashed in pennies.
It’s a twisted road … Lots of tales to tell.
I wonder how Newt feels today …
What a laugh, JARRETT calling DEDE a moderate… That’s kinda like saying WWII was a minor skirmish caused by differing political views… As you say MM, MS. JARRETT is not going to define MODERATE REPUBLICAN for the CONSERVATIVE in this GREAT COUNTRY…
The far left keep referring to Dede Scozzafava as a moderate. They will keep pushing that meme into 2010. They will say look what happens to moderate Republicans, they’re getting kicked out. That’s why Newt’s endorsement was so egregious. He’s just giving them ammunition whether it’s true or not. Did you notice how the tide turned after Sarah Palin’s endorsement?
if the good people of upstate new york want cronyism politics and like the obama agenda, then vote for the democrat. hell, that’s the choice the left has presented you. i was presented a choice between an insane communist and a lame rino last election. i made my choice, now you make yours. ditto to new jersey. do you want to forever be part of the triumverate of crooked states (illinois, louisiana, and new jersey) or are you going to let a little light shine in and cleanse your swamp. check the addresses of the already voted absentees. how many reside in new york?
There is no such thing as a “moderate” Republican. The party of moderates is the liberal Democrat Party.
Lest we forget the lessons of our past, the so-called “moderate” Republicans are most responsible for getting us where we are today, both politically and financially.
They are the enablers, and the “bi-partisanistas” that has endowed the majority party with tyrannical rights!
We must start holding them accountable on Tuesday, and continue purging ourselves of them through 2010 – 2012. Do not forget how we got here!
Jarrett’s colleague David Axelrod was on Face the Nation this morning saying pretty much the same thing- touting the “Republican identification at an all-time low” poll (that was flawed, and also ignores the huge amount of people who identify themselves as conservatives).
I’m not sure why the GOP would look to the people they run against in elections to tell them what’s good for their party??
I consider them being out there saying this to be implicit admission that they see this as a severe threat in 2010 and beyond.
The more conservatives are effective, the more shrill these attacks will become. Indeed, the shrill-o-meter, far more than public opinions polls, will be the best measure of conservative influence and resistance. When Jarrett and her ilk start praising us for acting right and being good little moderates, we are truly doomed.
Propoganda. Contrived propoganda. The pols on the left are doing it. The talk shows are full of it. The print news loves to spread it.
Propoganda.
As usual, this crapweasel has it completely wrong. The Republican Party gave the slot to Scuzzy and did nothing to force her out. Nobody forced her out. She voluntarily decided to quit the race, rather than face the embarrassment of coming in a distant 3rd on Tuesday. It was the polls of POTENTIAL VOTERS who gave her the idea that she didn’t have the right stuff so she decided to exit, stage left.
Jarrett is an unfunny clown. She obviously got to where she is through connections, not talent. She and Zero are a perfectly matched set of bookends.
The arrogance of this White House is nauseating.
The “shoulder” look has really taken root in the cesspool of DC, hasn’t it?
*Halloween may have been yesterday, but Jarrett is front and center for P-BO and his Communist Clown Cluster, doing their best to scare Americans into capitulating on issue after issue daily; It isn’t going to work; Honest people of all political persuasions recognize her as the Chicago thug and liberal plantation owner that she is; Run away from this person that offers you anything in exchange for your freedom and liberty.
I noticed the same thing, is that the new metro-sexual look for fems?
If Dede was so blind sided by the RNC, let’s see what happens in the 2010 Republican primaries whether Doug runs again as Conservative or a Republican, assuming she’ll throw her hat in the ring. NOT!
Oh BOO HOOOOOO. The conservatives are not doing what we want them to dooooooo. They are rocking the boat. They are not nice. They are getting sort of unpredictable. Oh darn, I broke another nail.
How appropriate!
Oh Gee-I missed Face the Nation AGAIN. But isn’t it just heartwarming how these socialist/fascist thugs are so concerned with the fate of the Republican Party and the Conservative movement? Heartwarming to the max.
But they do have plans for us, unpleasant to the extreme. But then should push come to shove, and I think it will, quite a few of us plan to return the concern
Of all the Obaminations I believe David Axelrod is the smartest, most cynical and thus the more dangerous. While William Ayres talks of camps and killing 25 million “unrepentant capitalist” David Axelrod lays the groundwork for doing so–all the while not saying so.
David Axelrod is the one we need to watch–should he make a sharp turn Hussein Obama, Jarrett, her vassel MamaBama and Rahm Emanuel would all have a broken nose.

If you must Feed the Trolls feed them to the alligators
And this is the result of a little bit O’ sunshine!
Let me preface by saying that I appreciate and agree with Michelle Malkin. This site is my intenet home page.
I am getting disgruntled by the very little effectiveness that the conservative blogosphere and the hardcopy-published conservative news has upon process/opinion. Is it affecting the general conversation that I read, or hear about in the mass media? NO!
Are you hearing anything close to heartening about how you are going to be better appreciated? Or maybe how you and your children are going to excel due to the new Stimulus package, or Health Insurance, or Carbon WEmission?
The answer, as we all know, is NO.
Can we all just get along?
The answer, as we all know, is NO.
Can we cure the evil/bad guy stuff that is creeping over the planet?
The answer is that we just have to eradicate maybe a dozen idiots from the world’s midst. Maybe less, maybe more, but it’s open for discussion. But not in the UN!
ERADICATE NOW! The new call to freedom. And guess who’s first on my list! Just e-mail me in Southern Africa
Later
Sorry, I forgot the email address. I didn’t allow it as a preference in my profile. fgmorley@mac.com. Let the hits begin.
fgmorley , please do not advocate criminal activity on this site. If you were speaking metaphorically, please say so and clarify your intent.
What criminal activity am I advocating? Please be more specific. And while you’re at it please compare my post to the ones that have been broadcast by HAMAS,, the PLO, the president of Iran. And by the way get a life.
The criminal activity is advertising to perform a “hit” on someone whom you dislike.
The actions of the organizations you mention have nothing to do with my suggestion that you clarify your intent. The clarification is needed since this site does not tolerate solicitations for criminal behavior. The criminal behavior of others has no bearing on your behavior, so please clarify. Are you suggesting we identify targets to be murdered?
Slavery was SUCH a mistake…
This woman is crazier then a bed bug. You mean to tell me that people listen to her?
Not much of an endorsement for the conservative candidate on Scuzzy’s part. And then quietly endorsing the democrat?
Newt, do you still think you made the right choice? Did you even give it due consideration? This is why you should stick to writing books. B-Bye.
There are only two explanations for Newt’s endorsement of Scuzz: Either poor judgment or lack of principles. Neither speaks well for him.
First of all, Mr Jamie D. I did not advertise a hit.
Secondly, If you are a moderator on this comment blog, and don’t like what I say, then BAN ME. And your name is dog____.
Thirdly, I will continue to state that there are a dozen or so idiots, or to to put it more bluntly, persons that are currently in control, of countries in the world that need to be executed. And the reason for that is so that the millions of people that are dominated by these pukes can be liberated.
You know, kind of like George W. Bush did with Iraq!
Can you understand that? You simple-minded, bureaucratic control freak? You should be the one that is BANNED, idiot.
And please kiss my ….
Just once, I’d like to be able to meet any member of O’s cabinet, or his czars, or himself, look them straight in the eye and say,”F— you.”
It would accomplish nothing, of course, but would make me *feel* good. As libs have taught us, results matter not, as long as one feels good about “doing something.”
Unfortunately the republican “leaders” believe that getting as many names in congress with an “R” attached to it is more important than supporting the causes of the conservative vote.
The more “R”s, the more power…for them. Unfortunately this just plays into the strategy of the left to shift blame on the other party by pointing to the “R” behind the name.
ALL RINOs MUST GO. The party needs disinfected or discarded.
If the people do not want a conservative candidate, then don’t run a liberal under the banner of a republican. That just results in weakening the votes of true conservations, causes the party to become ‘sick’ and allows all republicans to be blamed for the actions of the “wolves in sheep’s clothing”.
Just saw on Foxnews.com that Skuzzyfava has endorsed the Dem. But she’s a Republican, right? Right.
fgmorley:
1. All I asked was for a clarification of whether you were advertising for people to contact you (by the email address you provided) in order to have someone murdered. You finally claim “no” but then go on to say people need assassinated. So I think the answer was actually ‘yes’.
2. Nobody but you mentioned anything about being “banned”. But someone advocating murder might be, thus the need for clarification.
3. Neither former president Bush nor anyone under his leadership, committed murder or assassinated anyone. The lawful government of Iraq held a trial and found Hussein guilty of crimes worthy of death and carried out the penalty.
4. Why the anger at me for asking you to simply clarify?
I think the freakin’ Watertown Daily Times is not only putting up a false reality but illustrates pretty clearly how bad off New York REALLY is:
This is blatant speculation. Upstate and Northern New York are DYING and even the likes of Fort Drum, one of the few military posts left, and a few dairy farms isn’t gonna stop the bleeding. It’s all about the gimme, gimme, gimme, subsidies, and cash cow military tax base for losers like the Watertown Daily Times.
I love how this endorsement of Owens goes on and on about how he’ll bring great things to the state, like more subsidies and Federal investement. Oh, goody, let’s prop up Fort Drum and the dairy industry a little bit longer even though both industries are pretty much DEAD. Where was all this concern when Griffiths AFB and Platsburgh AFB were permanantely SHUT DOWN?
Who is this freaking paper kidding. When a state can only survive because of the federal handouts it gets, what does it say about New York? I’m from Upstate New York, and I witnessed the elimination of Griffiths (now a greatly reduced Rome Air Development Center) and Platsburgh, along with a lot of farms. Heaven forbid somebody like Hoffman bring back some fiscal sanity to the situation.
New York is going the way of California. Upstate and Northern New York are DYING and they’re bleeding people and jobs. How many people does this freakin’ paper know who want to work in the Dairy industry?
It’s stances like this paper’s that don’t help my former state. The utter hubris and greed exhibited instead of putting forth a strategy of attracting good-paying jobs and citizens is hard to comprehend. If Hoffman wins, he will have an uphill battle against this self-serving, gimme gimme attitude that people now exhibit in New York and especially this district.
If the people do not want a conservative candidate, then don’t run a liberal under the banner of a republican. That just results in weakening the votes of true conservations, causes the party to become ’sick’ and allows all republicans to be blamed for the actions of the “wolves in sheep’s clothing”.
Spelling correction:
“Just saw on Foxnews.com that Skuzzyfava has endorsed the Dem”
Makes the RNC leadership look even worse hey?
None of this stuff should surprise anyone. The threat of being truly exposed and losing power will make folks on the left say and do all sorts of crazy stuff. Hopefully there will be a point that its SO crazy even the media will give it up and stop supporting them.
Hopefully
As with a feint infantry charge to draw fire while the real attack happens elsewhere: Forlorn Hope. Sometimes it works but not very often.
Yes I saw “Former GOP Candidate
Throws Support to N.Y. Dem”–that should be good for 6 of her 9 supporters. The other three are convicted felons and have not had their rights restored yet

You never know when a RINO will pop up, so keep those elephant guns locked and loaded (metaphorically speaking of course).
I do not have a Metaphor but I do have a Remington and several Ruger M77s. But then telling a RINO NO can cause them to lose controll of all functions. Head em up, move em out-Rawhiiiiiiiiiiide!
Wow, is that really Ms Jarrett?
Her(?) expression is one of a person who perpetually lacks fiber in its diets.
If that expression persists, she(?) should see if Nancy Pee-Locust-y can help it w/botox… (…on the theory that a consistent non-expression is better than a consistent “that” expression…
)

Why do most of the "top level" Progressives seem suffer Gender Ambivalence?]
Memo to Valgal: Talk to me about who is extreme after you lose your majorities in the Congress in the midterm elections. I am enjoying this politically tone deaf Marxist administration self-destruct day by day, piece by piece, radical by radical.
All these elites on both sides of the aisle, and all so much smarter than me, but, not a one would I pee on, if they were ensconsed in fire! Well… maybe if they asked me real nice.
Of course she is a ‘moderate’ when compared to the Marxists that inhabit the White House and the Capitol.
Nice Communist Revolutionary Red Star on that “NETROOTS” banner…
Kind of reminds me of how the extreme Bill Ayers likes to wear Marxist T-Shirts and how his blog sports a Red Star, too.
Remember the blog post Ayers made on the eve of the 7th anniversary of the September 11th attacks?
Ayers is a Violent, Revolutionary Communist. What is Obama?
This time with the link…
Remember the blog post Ayers made on the eve of the 7th anniversary of the September 11th attacks?
As long as the GOP gives a flying fig what Valerie Jarrett or anyone else in the Big Marxist House in DC think about them they’ll be playing the Maoists’ game. They’re fighting their battles their way. We fight them our way, not their way.

Extreme? Standing up for the values espoused by the founding fathers? Alrighty.
Just more proof the media is in the tank for obambi. She wasn’t even challenged about the Republican party LEADERSHIP forcing out Scarzo? The party leadership went down with the sinking ship on this one. It was the grass roots that flipped this race. I can’t stand it when the talking heads just parrot the talking points and are not challenged by the “journalists” who host them on the shows. It insults all of our collective intelligence.
A woman who recommends communists for Obama’s administration is calling other people extreme???
Honey, you have no idea what you’re talking about…

*No Thesis available from College work
*No info on College Placement Test Scores or WHO financed his College Education

America’s First Straw Dog President.
So Obama was unable to slip his Trojan Horse into the GOP with success…fortunately for conservatives, they forgot to close the door on the horse so that the infiltrator was exposed. I wonder how many of those are currently in the GOP?
FOX and talk radio are exposing, not only Obama’s agenda, but the dangerous philosophy of liberalism/socialism. Whereby the supposed MSM has been accustomed to shielding the public from the news that elites didn’t want us to hear, FOX and talk radio have completely transformed the dissemination of information. The liberals’ only play now is to try and demonize the very people they’re trying to win over. They’re losing the battle and they know it.
we, the citizens of America, and the *real* leadership of the GOP want nothing to do with the RINOP, no matter if it is the stealth portion or the front thereof.
Val and Newt can go attempt aerial intercourse with a rotating pastry.
Why does the Left persist in attempting to define conservatism and Republicanism for our side, when they can’t even pass a health care bill themselves despite their owning two (or all three – depending on the day of the week) branches of government?
Ms. Jarrett says the GOP is “becoming more and more extreme, and more and more marginalized”. Jeez, it’s not like the GOP is crawling with Communists or Socialists or Anarchists or Marxists or Maoists. It’s not like the GOP hates capitalism or competition or excellence or innovation or the dollar or the American economy or, for that matter, America. Right, Ms. Jarrett?
Because We let them. Sadly so. The Left has infiltrated the GOP. Because We let them do it. Conservatives are labeled as “Radical” by the likes of Jarret and the Media is buying it.
I am not Party affiliated because none represent or serve me or America well.
Stop funding the NRCC and they will get the message.
Jarret is a Socialist whore and We know it. Obama is a Tool and We know it. He has Masters that got him elected and is surrounded by a cast of characters of questionable values, zero patriotism and are hell bent on destroying what the Founding Fathers built. Period.
LET’S VOTE, AND COUNT THE BALLOTS. I HAVE ABSOLUTE FAITH IN THE AMERICAN MIDDLE CLASS, AND THEY ARE PEAVED. CALL THEM TEAPARTY FOLKS OR WHATEVER, I SEE THEM AS THE GREAT MIDDLE CLASS WHO HAVE FINALLY BEEN SCREWED ENOUGH TO QUIT BEING THE SILENT MAJORITY AND START BEING THE VOCAL MAJORITY.

But when someone writes about others being dumb, and their comments are filled with misspelled words and bad grammar, its just too funny to pass up.

I vote this lamest, stupidest post of the day by a liberal. Would anyone like to second my motion?
So, let me get this straight, if none of us call out this poster we’re therefore tainted by association and thereby tacitly approving such behavior? Where I’m from, we call that reaching, les. You’re catapulting to an end result before a given action was ever taken.
Perhaps, les, you need to check your a$$hatery at the door before you leave DailyKooks for the day, okay?
les said:
Oh, goody, yet another spelling and grammar authority. As a former teacher, I had to correct grammar, syntax, and spelling for a living by 8th graders, but what I found more criminal were the lack of sentence transitions, content, backing up one’s assertions with actual “facts,” as well as just out and out incorrectly asserting historical facts that were not only untimely, but just plain illogical. Are you guilty of this, les?
I don’t normally harp on critics of those who “misspell” but I’m going to make an exception. You know, since this is a blog and all, spelling isn’t as much a consideration as it is in real life, formal communication. Everybody misspells, les, EVERYBODY.
Karma is a cruel, fickle mistress. I’ve met more liberals who could spell but couldn’t string together a coherent sentence to save their lives. The biggest shames are the young people who don’t know their own history because they’ve been doused in special PC sauce their entire lives and don’t know up from down. Are you one of those people, les?
Common sense is a beautiful thing. Maybe you should learn some and understand that you’re on Michelle’s blog where the dominant thought is conservative and libertarian. If you don’t like it, and prefer to alienate people through childish spelling critiques, that’s your cause celebe. I like to stick to actually being able to understand what people SAY/WRITE not how they spell.
Oh, and les, before you go on and on about spelling mishaps, perhaps you should take a look at the following word:
friggin
It’s friggin’ not friggin. Any time you take off the “g” in a word you need to put an apostrophe after the n (though this isn’t really adhered to in INFORMAL communication). You also tend to use run-on and incomplete sentences such as the first and second sentences in your post. Gee, isn’t critiquing writing skills fun?
Irony just isn’t a word in the dictionary is it, les?
You stay classy.
Oh, and one more thing… please join the get over yourself club with Zyzzyg. I’m sure you two can commiserate and compare notes on issues of logic and spelling.

The sleeveless comment was a JOKE.
A blog often moves quickly and has some spelling errors and typos. Such is the nature of a blog. Here’s a hint, besides a good joke, staying on topic is a highly regarded skill in the blogosphere. Nit-picking over spelling is not.
Thank you for the voice of reason.
Liberals are unfunny and have no sense of humor.
I expect spelling errors to happen along with typos. We’re all adults here. As long as a comment is coherent and cogent, I don’t mind if it’s littered with spelling errors. If you’re a partisan ideologue like les, spelling errors will affect you more.
