She’s not going down without a fight, not with a $20,000 fine hovering over her drilling operation. And her boldface-laden eight-page notice of appeal maintains her high standards of political entertainment:

Judge Land’s remarks amounted to nothing short of political lynching, which turned into feast and celebration by the media mob…

Aside from a general constitutional issue of members of the military being forced to violate their oath to uphold the Constitution, the undersigned has provided evidence that the members of the military are forced to violate their oath while following orders of Mr. Obama, as the Commander in Chief, who never provided any legal documents proving his eligibility for office as a Natural Born Citizen.

Damn, we forgot that Orly’s Birther case had an Oather angle. But if we were to propose a Grand Unified Theory of Birthers, Deathers, Tenthers and Oathers, we’d have to say the -er word that best describes their collective fear begins with an N.

Good golly, this is picking up steam. State Rep. Daryl Metcalfe (R-Troglodyte) is pissed about veterans touring Pennsylvania to spread inconvenient truths:

“As a veteran, I believe that any veteran lending their name, to promote the leftist propaganda of global warming and climate change, in an effort to control more of the wealth created in our economy, through cap and tax type policies, all in the name of national security, is a traitor to the oath he or she took to defend the Constitution of our great nation!” Mr. Metcalfe’s email reads. “Remember Benedict Arnold before giving credibility to a veteran who uses their service as a means to promote a leftist agenda. Drill Baby Drill!!!”

We might remind the exclamation-hoarding Mr. Metcalfe that George W. Bush took a similar oath — twice — yet it’s only lefties who seem to care about calling him on it, and even the Socialist-in-Chief is content to let sleeping tyrants lie.

Oh, it’s on:

In a world exclusive, Oprah Winfrey will interview former Alaska governor Sarah Palin for an episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show to air Monday, November 16, 2009. Winfrey and Palin will meet for the very first time on the episode, which will mark Palin’s first interview to discuss her upcoming book, Going Rogue: An American Life and her first-ever appearance on the Oprah show.

Will Oprah break Talibunny into a million little pieces for all the inevitable lies in her memoir? Or will Talibunny trash Oprah for palling around with Obama? Who cries first?

You only rent beer, the saying goes, and apparently the same can be said for America. At least that’s the impression we get from Pat Buchanan’s new column, “Traditional Americans are losing their nation.”

Hailing from the far shores of Traditia, Traditional Americans fill the ranks of the Oath Keepers, those stalwart guardians of our Second Amendment rights. (The Fourteenth is optional.) But don’t blame our Kansas-American President — “the alienation and radicalization of white America began long before Obama arrived.”

And Pat, champion of the Southern Strategy, knows a Traddy when he sees one:

When you think of communist leader Mao Tze Tung, who else is the first person to pop into your head? That’s right: Mother Teresa. And the converse, of course, is also true. When I think of Mother Teresa, images of Chairman Mao just naturally pop into my head.  The association between these two leaders is simply inescapable. So it’s more than understandable that when an Obama Administration official compared the two figures in a speech, the right-wing blogosphere and Fox News’ Glenn Beck went ballistic, correctly inferring that there was no irony intended by White House communications director Anita Dunn when she cited Mao and Mother Theresa to drive home a point about doing “things that have never been done before.” Read more »
