May each of you have the heart to conceive, the understanding to direct, and the hand to execute works that will leave the world a little better for your having been here. -- Ronald Reagan

Demeaning the Eucharist

A truck driver with his dog went to St. Peter's Anglican Church in Toronto, accepting an earlier invitation from Rev. Marguerite Rea. An invitation and acceptance to church is such a good thing.

What happened at that service, not so much a good thing. During communion, the dog came forward with the man, and the Reverend gave the dog a communion wafer. This is a holy moment, acknowledging our unity with Christ and his sacrifice for our Salvation. The Reverend was properly corrected by her Bishop, who called it misguided, and she apologized to her congregation.

We're concerned with this view though, of one of congregates: "If a dog goes into a church, he's entitled to every service that's offered, including spiritual nourishment." The Reverend needs to talk to this person, even possibly her whole congregation. If one person thinks something, you can be sure more than one is thinking it. The dog has not accepted our Lord Jesus Christ as his Savior; Communion reflects that, God's sacrifice, and our unity in recognition of that.

We Christians need to pay attention to the sanctity of this most holy of practices. In 2007 in San Fransisco, the "Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence" came forward in garish transsexual clothing and makeup, obviously mocking the holy ceremony, to receive communion. Unfortunately the the Catholic Archbishop of San Francisco gave it. I suspect he was shocked and not thinking clearly, and apologized for demeaning the Eucharist.

Adding to this unfortunate event, there was even a Jesuit Catholic Priest Professor, Rev. Jim Bretzke, that said this was okay. It's against the Catholic Church's teaching about who is to be served the Eucharist. I'm a Protestant, and occasionally attend Mass. I'm deeply touched when the priests bow before the Lord's Table before stepping forward to begin Communion.
On the night when he was betrayed,
Jesus took the bread,
and when he had given thanks,
He broke it and said,
"This is my body which is given for you.
Do this in remembrance of me."
In the same way he took the cup after supper, saying,
"This cup is the new covenant in my blood.
Do this as often as you drink it,
In remembrance of me".


Our Faith is under constant attack, and has been since its inception. We were told that it would be so, always. We must keep this in mind, and recognize when it's threatened or demeaned. Communion is a deep, revered and most spiritual moment; its sanctity and meaning must be protected.



In remembrance of Me eat this bread
In remembrance of Me drink this wine
In remembrance of Me pray for the time
When God's own will is done

In remembrance of me heal the sick
In remembrance of me feed the poor
In remembrance of me open the door
And let your brother in, let him in

Take eat and be comforted
Drink and remember too
That this is my body and precious blood
Shed for you, shed for you

In remembrance of me always love
In remembrance of me don't look above
But in your heart, in your heart
Look in your heart for God

Do this in remembrance of Me
Do this in remembrance of Me
In remembrance of Me

Candidate (SC, Gov) Nikki Haley's Christianity Under Attack by Christians?

GOP gubernatorial candidate Nikki Haley is being attacked by some Christians because they doubt her conversion from Sikhism to Christianity. What are they thinking? Haley converted to Christianity in 1997, and is married to a Methodist. Her opponent is Congressman Gresham Barrett, who has made her conversion an issue in his campaign, questioning her conversion and Christianity. That other Christians have piled on is appalling. More on the despicable Barrett later.

That her Faith is being brought into question by other Christians gives political and cultural ammo to Secularists that love to point out the intolerance of our Faith. We have to ask, what's the point of this, other than being intolerant and using this for political gain? She's converted, goes to church, and these Christians and Barrett are absolutely wrong making this a campaign issue. Only her political and economic views should be in play. (I would not say the same of a Muslim, who's first and foremost obligation is to Islam, not their country.)

Haley:
“(Religion) was something (husband Michael and I) talked about a lot.” He was brought up Methodist, Christian, and I was brought up Sikh, and so you talk about the similarities and you talk about the differences, and even more so when you’re getting married and you’re going to have kids, it becomes a very real thing on how you want to raise your kids.”


Haley has had two postings on her web site regarding her Christianity, one before, the other after Barrett made this an issue.
First statement:
“My faith in Christ has a profound impact on my daily life and I look to Him for guidance with every decision I make. God has blessed my family in so many ways and my faith in the Lord gives me great strength on a daily basis. Being a Christian is not about words, but about living for Christ every day.”


Second statement:
"I believe in the power and grace of Almighty God. I know, and have truly experienced, that with Him all things are possible. I have looked to Him for leadership throughout my career and will continue to do so as governor."


All three of these quotes show she has a mature wise view of the part Faith plays in her life, both personally and professionally.

On the other hand we have Barrett. He's called Haley a "raghead". He has not only not apologized, but continues to push this in his campaign. Haley's parents are Sikhs, and sometimes she attends their worship with them out of respect. Barrett and some Christians say this calls her conversion into question. Does "Honor your father and mother" ring a bell with these characters? Do we really want the governor of a state that uses that pejorative, shows that intolerance? He calls himself a Christian, yet apparently rejects the 'great commission' to openly and with love accept all converts.

This knucklehead also thinks he's a more better Christian or something because he was "born into the Faith". We, not exactly. Being "born again" is the correct measure.

Haley renounced her Sikh faith, converted to Christianity, married a Christian man, is raising Christian kids, and is a member of a church.

Barrett attacks her Christianity and conversion as false (how does he know?) and uses it for political gain. We're disgusted.

Christians are to accept into the Faith all people. Apparently Barrett missed that lesson, and should look to the mote in his own eye. Shame on him and the Christians that are doing this to Haley.

A Review of the Obama Administration So Far (Satire, Parody, Jus' Plain ol' Makin' Fun of the Guy)


And it came to pass in the Age of Insanity that the people of the land
called America , having lost their morals, their initiative, and their
will to defend their liberties, chose as their Supreme Leader that
person known as "The One."

He emerged from the vapors with a message that had no meaning; but He
hypnotized the people telling them, "I am sent to save you." My lack
of experience, my questionable ethics, my monstrous ego, and my
association with evil doers are of no consequence. I shall save you
with hope and Change. Go, therefore, and proclaim throughout the
land that he who proceeded me is evil, that he has defiled the nation,
and that all he has built must be destroyed. And the people rejoiced,
for even though they knew not what "The One" would do, he had promised
that it was good; and they believed. And "The One" said " We live in
the greatest country in the world. Help me change everything about it!"
And the people said, "Hallelujah! Change is good!"

Then He said, "We are going to tax the rich fat-cats." And the
people said "Sock it to them!" "And redistribute their wealth." And
the people said, "Show us the money!" And then he said, "
redistribution of wealth is good for everybody."

And Joe the plumber asked, " Are you kidding me? You're going to
steal my money and give it to the deadbeats??" And "The One"
ridiculed and taunted him, and Joe's personal records were hacked and publicized.
One lone reporter asked, "Isn't that Marxist policy?" And she was
banished from the kingdom!

Then a citizen asked, "With no foreign relations experience and
having zero military experience or knowledge, how will you deal with
radical terrorists?" And "The One" said, "Simple. I shall sit with
them and talk with them and show them how nice we really are; and they
will forget that they ever wanted to kill us all!" And the people
said, "Hallelujah!! We are safe at last, and we can beat our weapons
into free cars for the people!"

Then "The One" said "I shall give 95% of you lower taxes." And one,
lone voice said, "But 40% of us don't pay ANY taxes." So "The One"
said, "Then I shall give you some of the taxes the fat-cats pay!"
And the people said, "Hallelujah! Show us the money!"
Then "The One" said, "I shall tax your Capital Gains when you sell
your homes!" And the people yawned and the slumping housing market
collapsed. And He said. "I shall mandate employer-funded health care
for every worker and raise the minimum wage. And I shall give every
person unlimited healthcare and medicine and transportation to the
clinics." And the people said, "Give me some of that!"
Then he said, "I shall penalize employers who ship jobs overseas."
And the people said, "Where's my rebate check?"

Then "The One" said, "I shall bankrupt the coal industry and
electricity rates will skyrocket!" And the people said, "Coal is
dirty, coal is evil, no more coal! But we don't care for that part
about higher electric rates." So "The One" said, Not to worry. If
your rebate isn't enough to cover your expenses, we shall bail you out.
Just sign up with the ACORN and your troubles are over!"

Then He said, "Illegal immigrants feel scorned and slighted. Let's
grant them amnesty, Social Security, free education, free lunches,
free medical care, bi-lingual signs and guaranteed housing..." And
the people said, "Hallelujah!" and they made him king!

And so it came to pass that employers, facing spiraling costs and
ever-higher taxes, raised their prices and laid off workers. Others
simply gave up and went out of business and the economy sank like unto
a rock dropped from a cliff.
The banking industry was destroyed. Manufacturing slowed to a
crawl. And more of the people were without a means of support.

Then "The One" said, "I am the "the One"- The Messiah - and I'm here
to save you! We shall just print more money so everyone will have
enough!" But our foreign trading partners said unto Him. "Wait a
minute. Your dollar is not worth a pile of camel dung! You will have
to pay more... And "The One" said, "Wait a minute. That is
unfair!!" And the world said, "Neither are these other idiotic
programs you have embraced. Lo, you have become a Socialist state and
a second-rate power. Now you shall play by our rules!"

And the people cried out, "Alas, alas!! What have we done?" But yea
verily, it was too late. The people set upon The One and spat upon
him and stoned him, and his name was dung. And the once mighty nation
was no more; and the once proud people were without sustenance or
shelter or hope. And the Change "The One" had given them was as like
unto a poison that had destroyed them and like a whirlwind that
consumed all that they had built.



And the people beat their chests in despair and cried out in anguish,
"give us back our nation and our pride and our hope!!" But it was too
late, and their homeland was no more.

You may think this a fairy tale, but it's not.
It's happening RIGHT NOW

Ready for the End of Our Constitutional Republic?

Massachusetts will shortly be sending a bill to their governor to abolish the Electoral College and have the US President elected directly by popular vote. A lot needs to fall into place for this to happen, most importantly enough states have to pass this law for it to be effective. So far only five states [Illinois, New Jersey, Hawaii, Maryland, and Washington] have, with a total of 61 electoral votes.

The Left has always been for getting rid of the electoral college because they think that more people vote for the Democrat nominee. Historically, the popular vote winner has lost 4 times in 56 national elections. Were we to go to 'direct democracy' for presidential directions, New England states, Ohio, Florida and California would decide the president; that's where most of the folks live, and they're mostly Liberals. Good thing for the Dems, explaining their support.

Dems say that candidates ignore "huge swaths" [Senator James B. Eldridge] of the country now, only going to states with a lot of electoral votes. Of course that's not true, the opposite is true; just look at the campaign stops in the past.

Got to wonder, what are the states with this law going to do election night? Wait until the votes are in for the whole country? What if, per usual, Mass votes for the Dem nominee, and the most votes nationally are for the Republican? How do such anti-Constitutional knuckleheads get voted in? I swear, I see some questionable decisions made by corporate managers, but nothing that would destroy the institution of a company like these knuckleheads will destroy the foundation of this Constitutional Republic.

The Electoral College ensures each state, even in the "flyover country" hated by Liberals and inside the beltway knuckleheads, get to have a say who will be president. Leave it alone.

There's a reason the Founding Fathers set up a representative government. It works. Leave it alone.

Anti-Semite Oliver Stone Apologizes Again

Oliver Stone made some vile anti-Semitic remarks a few days ago, and then apologized.

Now he's come out with a second apology.
"I do agree that it was wrong of me to say that Israel or the pro-Israel lobby is to blame for America's flawed foreign policy. Of course that's not true and I apologize that my inappropriately glib remark has played into that negative stereotype."

"I want you to know that I am categorically opposed to anti-Semitism – and all other racist ideologies."


Abraham H. Foxman, Anti-Defamation League's (ADL) Director: "I believe he now understands the issues and where he was wrong, and this puts an end to the matter."

I disagree with Mr. Foxman. The issue is not over. Stone is a Jew hating friend of Holocaust denier Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, that wants another Holocaust and to kill all Jews.

I'm still waiting, four or five days after Stone's vile utterance, for the Hollywood and media outrage that was directed at Mel Gibson.

Sorry About That, But I'll Make No Mistake


Over the years some phrases that became overly popular became sources of irritation for me. In the 1960's it was "Sorry about that, Chief". I really wanted to put the cone of silence over that one. Then Jim Carrey had "Alrighty then". They and others are like a top forty song that you hear every time you turn on the radio.

The new irritating phrase is "make no mistake". Looking at the recent history of the over usage of the MNM phrase, it appears to have started in earnest with GW Bush. It was primarily a sports and business idiom, but it's usage during the fist four years of GW Bush's presidency saw its usage in the media jump from 3,624 to 9,174 in 2000 to 12,062 in 2001 to 13,141 MNM's by mid 2004 according to 'Factiva'. Obama has taken this to a whole new level. I googled "Obama make no mistake" and got about 2,720,000 results. The first two pages show just about every statement or speech he's made in this past six months has the idiom. "Let me be clear", it's wearisome. It's also offensive and threatening. Just exactly what do you feel and think when some knucklehead says that to you? I think, "what a jerk". It's a whole, "you better listen to me and obey or else" kind of feeling. Didn't like it when Bush overused it, and really don't like it coming from this president who is a mistake.

"Take back our country" is currently in vogue among Republicans and Conservatives. The Dems used it running against GW Bush. I don't understand their thinking that he ever denied them any rights or liberty, but that an issue for another blog.

It's just stupid for Conservatives and Republicans to be using it now. We haven't lost our country. We're in danger of losing our Constitutional Republic, though I'm hopeful given that over two-thirds of the country are against the recent legislation passed by the Dems. Especially heartened that about 60% want ObamaCare repealed.

I'm not a sloganeer, but something better needs to be crafted. "Return Our Constitutional Republic", "Out with Statism, in with Liberty", "Make no mistake Dems, yer outa here!".

Good article on "take back our country" phrase by Michael Medved here.

Not Us, But You, Should Pay Taxes

In light of the latest John Kerry kerfuffle about his moving his yacht around to avoid taxes he's voted for, promotes and loves, here's some reminders.

Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., avoided paying $500,000 in taxes on his yacht.

Rep. Charlie Rangel, D-N.Y., failed to disclose hundreds of thousands of dollars in assets to the IRS. He writes national tax law, and he didn't know he had to pay taxes on half a million that just showed up in his bank account?

Tom Daschle, Obama's first health and human services nominee, failed to pay $128,000 in taxes. oooops! he "forgot" to pay his taxes. Nomination had to be withdrawn.

Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner failed to pay $34,000 in taxes. This is the guy that wrote off sending his daughter to summer camp.

HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius and her husband had to pay $7,000 in back taxes.

Labor Secretary Hilda Solis' husband had a tax lien on his business for 16 years.

Nancy Killefer, on deck to be the White House chief performance officer, had a $900 lien on her house for failing to pay unemployment taxes for household help.

Lael Brainard, Obama's nominee for undersecretary of the treasury for international affairs, paid his property taxes late.

Remember Biden's quip about it being patriotic to pay taxes? "It's time to be patriotic...". I tithe more per year than $millionaire Biden gave to charity during the decade before he became vice president. He cares about regular folks don't ya see.

Then these guys write tax laws that give breaks for themselves and friends. Much provable truth in the observation that Republicans get rich and get into politics, and Democrats get into politics and get rich.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Now I'm getting testy.

Michael Moore claims to hate big oil and defense contractors. He claims to own no stocks because it's capitalist. In fact he owns (or owned) shares in Halliburton, Boeing, and Honeywell. He's a big union guy, but has been know to go up to Canada to do film work so he doesn't have to pay union thug wages.

Noam Chomsky, darling of communists, rages against private property and the defense industry. He has made $millions doing defense contract work. He owns property too.

The intolerant hate spewing diva Barbara Streisand is a big time green. She is (or was) part owner of a strip mining company. She owns all kinds of property, houses, big gas guzzling vehicles. It would take me a century with my current life style to leave a carbon footprint the size of the one she leaves in a year.

I love this one. Pro abortion activist Hillary Clinton, that supports teenage girls getting abortions without parental notification, would not let her teenage daughter get her ears pierced. By the way, Chelsea's wedding is going to cost $3-$5 million now that she's all growed up. "I feel your pain." How about, Chelsea, not taking a page out of your hypocritical parents book, and donate $5 million to poor people, or have a wedding fund so poor people can have cool weddings?

Nancy Pelosi supports, she says, unionized farm workers. Even got a Cesar Chavez award from the United Farm Workers in 2002. She and her husband own vineyards in California, and go out of their way to avoid paying union thug labor to pick their grapes.

Then today there was a story about Barney Frank, that tried to stiff a ferry (too good but I'll skip it) for a buck, demanding he get the $1 senior citizen discount. He didn't have the seniors' card so was denied and he turned into a whiny drama queen. He was going to Fire Island to his favorite gay bar. What the hell is a seventy year old doing trolling bars for sex, regardless of gender. geeeeez....that's disgusting.

“By gnawing through a dike, even a rat may drown a nation.” Edmund Burke

These rats are gnawing through the dike of fiscal responsibility and good governance with their teeth of greed, lies and hypocrisy; and drowning us in $trillions of debt and impoverishing us with high taxes they themselves try not to pay.

Obama Shuns Boy Scouts


This is the 100th! year of the Boy Scouts of America. This is a pretty big deal. But like laying the wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns on Memorial Day, Obama has to go play rather than be Presidential.

He could have spoken at the Boy Scouts Jamboree in Virgina today, and praise an organization that has played an important part in providing values that make good human beings and men, and guidance in becoming good citizens. What he has opted to do instead is to go on "The View", where Leftist women gang up on one Conservative woman. This to him is more important than acknowledging the tradition and success of the Boy Scouts.

The White House said it was a scheduling issue. ummmmm, the day of 100th anniversary of the Boy Scouts has been known for a hundred years. When did the White House schedule "The View"? It couldn't have been scheduled last week or next week? And what's the President of the United States, the most powerful political office in the world (at least until he started diminishing it) doing on a second rate gabfest? Then again, the White House said it wasn't "The View" that interfered with his stopping by and talking to Boy Scouts, it was a fundraiser. At least he's consistent. He went to a fundraiser in California when he could have attended memorial services for the men killed in the Gulf oil rig explosion.

Popularity move? The Boy Scouts currently have about 2.8 million members. “The View” hit a 14-week high in Women 18-34 (0.8 rating/282,000) and a 9-week high in Women 18-49 (1.2 rating/818,000) – since the weeks of 4/5/10 and 5/10/10, respectively. TV by the Numbers. At their highest 818,000 thousand women vs a couple million members of the Boy Scouts. That's a couple million with families of several people connected.

Barbara Walters inflating her ego: "This shows that both the president and first lady feel that our show is an influential and important source of information and news." Sorry Barbara, your show is not important or influential. It's a second class gab fest of some liberal women pretending they know what they're talking about.

Scout Oath
On my honor, I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country;
To obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.

Scout Law
A Scout is trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.

Scout Motto
Be Prepared

Scout Slogan
Do a good turn daily

Our president does not have any of these values, and could not live up to them if he did.

He can, like the Liberal women on "The View", talk a lot about stuff he doesn't know anything about.

Birds of a feather.

Very Rich Anti-Capitalist Oliver Stone is Also an Anti-Semite

Here's the anti-American anti-capitalist that accepted riches being a capitalist American, espousing his Antisemitism.

Why the Holocaust so much front and center?
"The Jewish domination of the media. "There's a major lobby in the United States. They are hard workers. They stay on top of every comment, the most powerful lobby in Washington. Israel has f***** up United States foreign policy for years."

He also thinks Hitler and Stalin are misunderstood, and apparently his new "project" will put them in context. Context? "Hitler is an easy scapegoat throughout history and it's been used cheaply." "I've been able to walk in Stalin's shoes and Hitler's shoes to understand their point of view. We're going to educate our minds and liberalize them and broaden them." That was said at the Television Critics Association recently. Last January when he started this project he said that Stalin, Hitler, Mao Zedong had been distorted by the media. What?

Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director:
Oliver Stone has once again shown his conspiratorial colors with his comments about ‘Jewish domination of the media’ and control over U.S. foreign policy. His words conjure up some of the most stereotypical and conspiratorial notions of undue Jewish power and influence.

The myth of Jewish control is an old stereotype that persists to this day. Stone uses it in a particularly egregious fashion by suggesting that Hitler has gotten an unfair shake because of Jewish influence.

This is the most absurd kind of analysis and shows the extent to which Oliver Stone is willing to propound his anti-Semitic and conspiratorial views.


Will there be the media outrage directed at him that Mel Gibson got? Prediction. He will not. Gibson, for all his faults professes Catholic faith and isn't a radical liberal. Stone rejects religion and embraces communism, so no harm no foul.

Stone has had an oops moment and published an apology.
“In trying to make a broader historical point about the range of atrocities the Germans committed against many people, I made a clumsy association about the Holocaust, for which I am sorry and I regret. Jews obviously do not control media or any other industry. The fact that the Holocaust is still a very important, vivid and current matter today is, in fact, a great credit to the very hard work of a broad coalition of people committed to the remembrance of this atrocity - and it was an atrocity.”


Sorry Stone, don't buy it. You're an anti-Semite, pure and simple.

This guy, besides supporting the communist dictator Chavez, supports holocaust denier Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who wants to launch a nuclear attack on Israel and wipe out all the Jews he can.

Really Stone, you're not a Jew hater?

The "JournoList" and the Suppression of News

I didn't find it puzzling that there was full out Media support for Obama during the campaign. There was no coverage in the Jurassic Press of his 20 year connection with anti-Christian racist America hater Jeremiah Wright, how he was mentored by communists, his association with domestic terrorist Bill Ayers and his terrorist wife, and all the rest of his sordid pro-Statist, racist past; understandably with good reason.

We on the Right have generally recognized and accepted, up to now, that Statism was their world view and we just needed to counter it. The "JournoList" shows that they plan and talk about subverting conservatives and Republicans, often in vicious and vile ways.

This was a private chat room, if you will, that has since been closed down. Of course they say it's not big deal, much ado about nothing. Not, of course, like the 'vast right wing conspiracy'. Need I say it? If Conservatives had a similar chat venue, it would lead every Jurassic Press (alleged) newscast for days.

Some quotes:
Sarah Spitz, a producer for National Public Radio, commenting what she would do if she saw Rush Limbaugh on the floor dying of a heart attack: “Laugh loudly like a maniac and watch his eyes bug out...” “I never knew I had this much hate in me.” But he deserves it.” She later issued an apology, saying it really wasn't her, she's not really that kind of person. Like Rush pointed out, 'then who was it?' Did somebody take over her body and force her to say those vile things?

Bloomberg’s Ryan Donmoyer at the beginning of the TEA Party movement, when they were showing up at town hall meetings: “You know, at the risk of violating Godwin’s law, is anyone starting to see parallels here between the teabaggers and their tactics and the rise of the Brownshirts?” “Esp. Now that it’s getting violent? Reminds me of the Beer Hall fracases of the 1920s.” Really? They were running through the streets destroying property and beating liberals? They were rounding people up and sending them to prisons?

Richard Yeselson, freelance liberal writer and researcher: “They want a deficit driven militarist/heterosexist/herrenvolk state. “This is core of the Bush/Cheney base transmorgrified into an even more explicitly racialized/anti-cosmopolitan constituency. Why? Um, because the president is a black guy named Barack Hussein Obama. But it’s all the same old nuts in the same old bins with some new labels: the gun nuts, the anti tax nuts, the religious nuts, the homophobes, the anti-feminists, the anti-abortion lunatics, the racist/confederate crackpots, the anti-immigration whackos (who feel Bush betrayed them) the pathological government haters (which subsumes some of the othercategories, like the gun nuts and the anti-tax nuts).”

We expect people like this to be reporters with a foundation of honesty and integrity?

A Blogger Lindsay Beyerstein: “I’m not saying these guys are capital F-fascists, but they don’t want limited government. Their desired end looks more like a corporate state than a rugged individualist paradise. The rank and file wants a state that will reach into the intimate of citizens when it comes to sex, reproductive freedom, censorship, and rampant incarceration in the name of law and order.” This guy talking about a conservative or Republican corporate state. Aren't the Dems the ones engaging in corporate cronyism pumping $billions into corporations and hiring their CEO's into cabinet positions or making them unaccountable czars?

Another blogger, Ed Kilgore, in response to noted military historian Victor Davis Hanson, to an article on immigration, not response to the subject itself, just: “...the kind of Old White Guy cultural reaction that is at the heart of the Tea Party Movement. It’s very close in spirit to the classic 1970s racist tome, The Camp of the Saints, where White Guys struggle to make up their minds whether to go out and murder brown people or just give up.”

Jonathan Zasloff, a law professor at UCLA, when they were doing their standard myopic rant on Fox News: “I hate to open this can of worms, “but is there any reason why the FCC couldn't’t simply pull their broadcasting permit once it expires?” Really? This guy is a law professor. Has he read the Constitution? Does he know about no abridgment of free speech? Freedom of the press? Does he know FNC does not broadcast, it's cable? Good grief.

The Jurassic Press is only for freedom of the press and free speech if what they put out is the only thing being put out, and the free speech is only for them and those that agree with them.

The original article from the "Daily Caller" here, and Fred Barnes take on it here. Fred Barnes was a topic of discussion on the JournoList.

This is also where they hatched the idea to call everyone that disagrees with the Statist agenda and Obama's plans to socialize America was hatched. It appears to be backfiring now. Spencer Ackerman of The Washington Independent: "If the right forces us all to either defend Wright or tear him down, no matter what we choose, we lose the game they've put upon us. Instead, take one of them—Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, who cares—and call them racists. . . . This makes them 'sputter' with rage, which in turn leads to overreaction and self-destruction."

Here's an article that links 106 of the 400 participants to various communist and socialist organizations. All these participants are "progressives". You won't find a Constitutionalist or conservative among them. A couple groups connected to these people are the Democratic Socialists of America and Institute for Policy Studies, which you won't find on this blog site in my "think tank" section because it's no more than a part of this administration's Ministry of Propaganda. This is a fascinating look at who is actually writing for the Jurassic Press and what their connections are. Of course George Soros is wrapped up with these guys. He's a foreigner that has made $billions crumbling the economies of nations, and is now here financing the overthrow of our Constitutional Republic. His Open Society website here.

This is the Jurassic Press. I'm happy to be, in my own small way, part of the new media.

Proud to Fly Terrorist and Communist Flags on American Soil


It's not enough that the Democrat Obama Administration flew the Chinese Communist flag at the White House , but now they are allowing, endorsing, the flying of the PLO's terrorist flag on US soil.

Their justification is that it'll bring the Palestinians along to accept a two state solution. Problem is, they don't want a two state solution, they just want to kill Jews and destroy Israel. Period.

The "Palestinian Authority/Palestinian Liberation Organization Mission" will be upgraded from bureau to "general delegation" which allows this terrorist organization to fly their flag of genocide and terrorism at their compound in Washington DC.

Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.), the ranking member on the U.S. House of Representatives Foreign Affairs Committee: "Instead of giving more undeserved gifts to the PLO, it’s time for us to kick the PLO out of the U.S. once and for all and move our embassy in Israel to Jerusalem, where it belongs."
The mutual respect they show our flag.

Journalism, Daniel Schorr (RIP), Edward R Murrow


NPR Commentator of 25 years, Daniel Schorr died at the age of 93. He was the last of the crew to pass away that legendary journalist Edward R Murrow had hired. I certainly would have liked to hear what Murrow, a straight news reporter, would have had to say about Schorr, who turned from reporter to Leftist political hack and liar pretending to present the news.

His most egregious reportage happened during Goldwater's run for the presidency in 1964. Goldwater had mentioned during his campaign that he might take some vacation time in Germany. Here's what Schorr reported on the eve of the Republican Convention:
“It looks as though Senator Goldwater, if nominated, will be starting his campaign here in Bavaria, center of Germany's right wing” [also known as] “Hitler's one-time stomping ground.” “Thus, there are signs that the American and German right wings are joining up. Now back to you, Walter, and have a nice day!" Full article here.

He was pretty much disliked and tossed out by CBS, CNN, Eisenhower, Nixon of course (he was on the Nixon enemies list), and was under investigation by The House Ethics Committee for leaking government documents by the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence. Leaking intelligence reports...he was just ahead of his time; NY Times does that now as a matter of policy.

After no one in private sector journalism would hire him, he landed a government job at NPR telling Leftist lies unopposed. I think NPR needs to hire a conservative commentator for the next 25 years to balance it out.

Full but biased obit here. (Mentions little of what a Leftist scoundrel he was.)

Now some words from a real journalist, Edward R Murrow:

"To be persuasive we must be believable; to be believable we must be credible; to be credible we must be truthful."

"We cannot defend freedom abroad by deserting it at home."

"We hardly need to be reminded that we are living in an age of confusion — a lot of us have traded in our beliefs for bitterness and cynicism or for a heavy package of despair, or even a quivering portion of hysteria. Opinions can be picked up cheap in the market place while such commodities as courage and fortitude and faith are in alarmingly short supply." ~ This I Believe (1951)

"We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men — not from men who feared to write, to speak, to associate and to defend causes that were, for the moment, unpopular." ~ See It Now (9 March 1954)

"It is not necessary to remind you that the fact that your voice is amplified to the degree where it reaches from one end of the country to the other does not confer upon you greater wisdom or understanding than you possessed when your voice reached only from one end of the bar to the other." ~ Speech to Radio and Television News Directors convention at Chicago (15 October 1958) (Current news readers should note this as they call any conservative or Republican a racist or 'teabagger', Jennings "America threw a temper tantrum" when his side lost an election, and all the rest of their hateful vile commentary that passes for news.

"Most truths are so naked that people feel sorry for them and cover them up, at least a little bit."

"Our history will be what we make it. And if there are any historians about fifty or a hundred years from now, and there should be preserved the kinescopes for one week of all three networks, they will there find recorded in black and white, or color, evidence of decadence, escapism and insulation from the realities of the world in which we live." ~ Speech to Radio and Television News Directors convention at Chicago (15 October 1958)

Murrow had the wisdom and insight Schorr lacked to be a good journalist. Schorr gave all that up for blind Statist ideology.

Daniel Schorr RIP

Daily Kos Blogger Demands Abolition of Organised Religion

This is a rant from a character calling himself\herself "Blue Moon", totally rejecting the Constitution, tolerance, wisdom and good sense. Most atheists I know or read, reinterpret the Establishment Clause as meaning freedom from religion, not that the State can't impose religion. This Daily Kos writer wants to see established religion abolished. Statists must abolish religion because it's the only thing standing between liberty and totalitarianism. Examples are Soviet Union and Red China; atheist nations for a reason.

"The church of pedophiles that brought you Cardnal Law and the current head, Ratzinger dares open its filthy mouth again? To preach about morality?" The Apostle Paul, when writing about homosexuality, was actually talking about grown men sodomizing little boys. That was predominate in the pagan world of the time. He wanted this to stop because it was inhumane. This atrocity existed well before the modern Catholic Church, and Catholics are just as furious as anyone else that it happened, and that the Church turned a blind eye to it. The Church is not a "church of pedophiles"...that's just a stupid statement on the face of it. Let's turn an open eye to the judges in this country that let pedophiles and rapists go free to do their despicable acts over and over and get released over and over. Should we abolish the Judiciary?

"The Reverend Phelps dares picket servicemen's funerals? And tell us all that "Heath [is] in Hell?" And call Lady Gaga a 'proud whore'?" Phelps is the evil stupid man that leads the Westboro Baptist Church. His is an independent anti-Christian church, is not affiliated at all with anything other than their own hatred and stupidity. This is the hate group that stands outside of cemeteries protesting the military dead being buried. They've been fully shunned by the Christian community. This whole article is the standard deceptive practice of Secularists. Select out one bad actor, and paint the whole community with that brush.

"A variety of crazy wackos calling themselves the "Tea party" peddle vicious racism masquerading as christian faith." There is no connection, not one, between Churches and the TEA Party Movement. The is no evidence of racism in the TEA Party other than the claims of the racist Democrat Party, racist Obama Administration, racist NAACP, racist Black Congressional Caucus, and racist New Black Panther Party, (supported by the racist Attorney General Eric Holder). Of course the Left is losing the arguments about everything, so as a distraction lay in the claim all their opponents are racist. Of course, this statement paints all members of organized religion as racists.

"It is time to begin working actively to bring about the end of organized religion. At the beginning of the 21st century, it is a wonder that a group of ignorant, bigoted and hateful men (yes, mostly men) can preach against scientific progress and try to take this country and the world a few centuries back. It is time to face the truth -- THERE IS NO GOD." Actually, there's scientific progress because of organized religion, and European civilization was saved during the "Middle Ages" by organized religion. This writer is ignorant or willfully lying. The "New Atheists" religion is attacking organized religion. It's not enough to just say they don't believe in a higher power and move on. I'm interested to find out that the church is mostly men. With all the women ministers and church leaders, I found this "fact" astounding. Especially since the national president of my congregation is a woman. How'd that happen?

"**the church tells you that as long as you go to confession and pray to God, all the wrong-doing will be forgiven. Therefore, religion teaches us an inconsiderate, irresponsible behavior to our fellow humans. No, I do not want someone who wronged me to ask forgiveness from God. I want them to come to me, to face me and ask for forgiveness from me, not some abstract and supposedly all-forgiving god." Actually, to be forgiven, one must ask for it from the person offended, and there must be penance. Secularists project what they believe or want to be true, and state it as a truth.

"It is time to organize and take legal action against religious institutions. There are many avenues available to pursue lawsuits against churches and such. It is time to turn up the heat in the media and the blogsphere against this unnecessary and harmful atavism of the past." What is this character going to sue for? Specifically. $Billions given to those that suffer from AIDS in Africa? Homeless shelters and food kitchens that millions of volunteer hours and billions of dollars are offered? Hospitals (which were founded and developed by the Church)?

This character does not know the Constitution or wants to shred it. He's an intolerant bigot, who claims to have moral and ethical values. He doesn't, but the one's he does claim to have are all based in the values set forth by organised religion. The Pagan Society he wishes for instead of what we have now, advocated sodomizing little boys, women were used only for sex and breeding, two thirds of civilization were slaves, to name just a few things. Christianity lead the movement to abolish slavery, Jesus had many women as his confidants, and the early Church was lead by women. I'll take this culture that respects women, where slavery is abolished, and sodomizing little boys is absolutely rejected (except to Secularist judges).

There is too much in this uninformed, lying, intolerant, bigoted article to address in a short blog. Full article here.

So what's the beef? Are any Secularists or atheists forced to worship, go to church, or pray? Are churches forcing, or are able to force, anyone to do anything?

Dems to Racist TEA Party...Hang 'em High....

The Decline. The Geography of the Recession

Based on the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the is an interactive map of the rising unemployment rate since 2007. It's frightening. If you include not only those fully unemployed, but those forced to take part time work, and have given up looking for work, we're looking at about 31 million people, 9.7% of the population.

Map here.

Plus, as of this posting, we are $13.2 trillion in debt. That's about $43,000 for each living American citizen. That includes you children. If your baby is born today, he/she is beginning life with that financial burden.

Yet this administration continues to spend, borrow, waste money, and pass bills that keeps the private sector sidelined and oppressed.

Not Only Are They Murderous Thugs, But Something Even Worse: Al Qaeda Is Racist

Truly. Obama and the Dems have pretty much given terrorists a pass, but now by golly, they've gone too far and are killing black people!

9/11 is pretty much forgotten by the Dems, and about 40% of them think Bush and company carried out the horrible deed for something having to do with oil. Truly. In Uganda recently there was a terrorist attack, and Barry got upset. They're killing black people!

Obama: "What you've seen in some of the statements that have been made by these terrorist organizations is that they do not regard African life as valuable (italics mine) in and of itself. They see it as a potential place where you can carry out ideological battles that kill innocents without regard to long-term consequences for their short-term tactical gains."

Unidentified White House person (why unidentified?): "...references the fact that both U.S. intelligence and past al Qaeda actions make clear that al Qaeda -- and the groups like al Shabaab that they inspire -- do not value African life (bolding mine). The actions of al Qaeda and the groups that it has inspired show a willingness to sacrifice innocent African life to reach their targets." Hey knuckleheads, these guys don't value anybody's life. They even kill each other!

More from the UWHP (Unidentified White House Person): "Additionally, U.S. intelligence has indicated that al Qaeda leadership specifically targets and recruits black Africans to become suicide bombers because they believe that poor economic and social conditions make them more susceptible to recruitment than Arabs." "Al Qaeda recruits have said that al Qaeda is racist against black members from West Africa because they are only used in lower level operations." We need affirmative action in terrorist organizations! Let's get the ACLU in there, yesterday!

"In short, "al Qaeda is a racist organization that treats black Africans like cannon fodder and does not value human life." No dookie Sherlock. They don't value human life...what was your clue? Oh yea, they killed some black people. Great.

Full article here, by Obama supporter and Statist Jake Tapper.

Need an Operation? Call Your Congressman


Obama has made an appointment to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). There was a big kerfuffle when he announced this character, but the formal announcement wasn't made, so there were no hearings. Usually Obama just hires a 'czar' to run things so he can bypass Senate confirmation hearings. Some have been run out of town after it being noted that they were self identified Communists, racists, or both. This nominee to CMS is Dr. Donald Berwick.

This is why Obama skipped Senate confirmation hearings and made a recess appointment. All presidents have done this, but this one is especially egregious. There needs to be some new rules regulating this practice.

Dr. Berwick:
"I cannot believe that the individual health care consumer can enforce through choice the proper configurations of a system as massive and complex as health care. That is for leaders to do." See people, you are too stupid to make your own health decisions, the government must do it for you.

"You cap your health care budget, and you make the political and economic choices you need to make to keep affordability within reach." Sarah Palin's "Death Beds" anyone?

"A progressive policy regime will control and rationalize financing—control supply."

"Health care is a common good—single payer, speaking and buying for the common good." Obama's goal has always been single payer healthcare, and there's several vids with him saying so. He quit saying it a little before running for the presidency because he knows American Citizens don't want it.

"And it's important also to make health a human right because the main health determinants are not health care but sanitation, nutrition, housing, social justice, employment, and the like." Your health isn't important, Statist political agenda is. What health care you get will be a political decision, not a medical one.

"One over-demanded service is prevention: annual physicals, screening tests, and other measures that supposedly help catch diseases early." Taking care of yourself? Not on the governments dime, which used to be your dime. ObamaCare absolutely will move everyone onto a single payer system.

"Young doctors and nurses should emerge from training understanding the values of standardization and the risks of too great an emphasis on individual autonomy." Are you getting concerned yet?

Are you really ready to have your health decisions turned over to politicians? The Left mocked Sarah Palin's death bed analogy, but here it is being advocated. Need a procedure or operation? Maybe your Congressman can do it.

You will not be able to make your own health decisions; the government will limit what care people get, the government will tell you what you can do regarding any issue. As a side note, Grandma may not get that hip replacement or operation to keep her alive because her being kept healthy or alive with that added "government" expense isn't viable, but abortions paid for by the government are. That's definitely in the ObamaCare bill. ObamaCare is officially the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of March 25, 2010, and State funded abortions are in there. It's couched in legalese, but it's in there.

Ultimately this guy and his successors will be the arbitrators of who lives and who dies, who gets well and who suffers based on partisan political realities. HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius is very much on board with this. CMS by the way, has a bigger budget than the Pentagon. Be afraid, be very afraid.

Super Bam Single Handedly Plugs Gulf Oil Spill


Thinking of all the statements Obama has made leading up to the plugging of the underwater gusher, you'll notice he always said "they" did this, and "they" did that, and it was all bad, and he sent down a raft of lawyers, didn't help the Gulf states with boats or booms, threatened Gov Jindall, and protected the unions by not lifting the Jones Act.

Now listen to him, once it's plugged. From his press conference July 16.

"..."as we complete the relief wells that are necessary to stop the leak."

"What they're working to determine is whether we can safely shut in the well using the new cap without creating new problems..."

"...which should allow us to capture nearly all the oil until the well is killed. It’s important to remember that prior to installation of this new cap, we were collecting on average about 25,000 barrels a day."

"But it is our responsibility to make sure that we’re taking a prudent course of action and not simply looking for a short-term solution."

"Either we will be able to stop the flow, or we will be able to use it to capture almost all of the oil until the relief well is done."

"Even if it turns out that we can’t maintain this cap and completely shut off the flow of oil, what the new cap allows us to do is to essentially attach many more containment mechanisms so that we’re able to take more oil up to the surface, put it on ships -- it won’t be spilling into the Gulf." Of course now he's a master driller and is directing the action.

"...there’s no doubt that we have made progress as a consequence of this new cap fitting on, and that even if it turns out that we can’t keep the containment cap on to completely stop the oil, it’s going to allow us to capture much more oil and we’ll see less oil flowing into the Gulf."

He concluded "The key here right now is for us to make decisions based on science, based on what’s best for the people of the Gulf -- not based on PR, not based on politics." This guy has done nothing all these months but make political decisions based on political calculations to oppress national oil production, extort money, run shakedowns, use this as a platform to ram though his 'cap 'n tax scheme, and start a lot of law suits to help his lawyer buddies get even richer.

"We" are certainly happy he finally got the time between vacations, fund raisers and golf rounds to finally don his wet suit, swim down and plug the damn hole.

Petitions the Metaphysical Peregrine Supports

TEA Party petition to the NAACP:
I hereby urge you to revoke the recent NAACP resolution condeming the Tea Party movement as “racist” and to instead, embrace it and its members as fellow foot soldiers in the the never ending crusade for liberty, justice and prosperity for all.
You can sign it here.

Arizona "Border Sheriffs" Paul Babeu and Larry Dever have had to set up legal defense funds to protect themselves from lawsuits brought by the Federal Government. They need money to protect themselves from their own government that supports the rights of illegal immigrants and not the rights of American Citizens to protect themselves. Sheriff Babeu has a hit out on him from the Mexican cartels. You can donate here.

The National Rifle Association (NRA) has made noise about supporting anti-2nd Amendment Statist Harry Reid and not his opponent for Senate, Sharron Angle. Listed on this petition are 50 times Reid has voted for limiting gun rights. The reason given is he took tax payer money during our epic debt crisis and gave $61 million dollars for a shooting range in Clark County. Sharron Angle strongly support the 2nd Amendment. You can sign the petition here.

The Republican Party leadership seems to be taking the same tack with Sharron Angle and standing on the sidelines while the Reid political machine spends $millions attacking her. She has indeed said some loopy things, but they aren't of the dangerous sort Reid has said, like the war in Iraq is lost (while soldiers are in battle), or that there's no problem on our borders, when American citizens are getting murdered by Mexican cartels, and stupid stuff like he could smell tourists when they were in the capital. "Dusty" Harry is a menace to our Constitutional Republic and must go. You can support Sharron Angle by donating here.

I Want To Know What Love Is - New Jersey Mass Choir

Democrat's Ministry of Propaganda All White Folks Criticizing TEA Party of Racism

The charge from the get go of Obama's presidency, that started out with over 80% approval rating, is that if you criticize his policies, you're a racist. In the vid are all the people that stated this stupid notion, that are now criticizing Obama. So I guess they're racists.


Here's another vid showing the racism and hypocrisy of MSNBC, but the same is true of all the other White outlets for the Ministry of Propaganda.

From the Ministry of Propaganda

This vid was released by the racist "Think Progress" blog. What they've done is strung together some snippets and lying stuff to prove the lie that the TEA Party movement is racist.



The guy that says he "proud to be a racist" is a Leftist plant that has been seen at several TEA Party rallies, and is often put in vids and on the news as representative of TEA Party attendees.

"We think the Muslims are coming in and taking over" is stupid but not racist.

"We can fight al Qaeda, we can't kill Obama" is stupid but not racist.

The guy with the sign "too black to be president" had other things to say. "It's nothing racial … and if you look at my wife (she's black), it's not the color of his skin that troubles me." It’s the blackness inside … his heart. He’s a bad guy."

The guy using the term "wetbacks" was from a pre-TEA Party vid from 2006.

Everything on this vid is fabricated and edited to promote their lie.

The Ministry of Propaganda is apparently staffed with the people that state the astronomy term "black holes" is racist, and that white babies are born racist (from Time magazine no less).

See, the Left can't debate the issues, so they have diversionary tactics to change the subject. Pretty much in response to any questioning of a Leftist on the issues, is it's "Bush's fault" or "you're a racist". Recently added is that if you disagree with the fascist policies of the Democrat Party, you're just too stupid to understand that these things are being done to you for your own good. You see, Statists know better than you what's best for you in your own life, and they are your personal deciders, so just shut up and submit to the State.

Well, Which Is It?

From one of the racist leaders of the NAACP, which use to be a civil rights organization. Did he or didn't he?


Another example of saying two different things about one thing:
Radical Statist and racist Clintonista Paul Begala, primary propagandist for the Democrat Party, defending all the vacations and golf outings of our lazy incompetent president, said Bush took a lot of vacations, but he didn't critize him for doing so.

Now: "I thought it was silly when people attacked Bush for going on vacation, so I'll be consistent and say it's silly when people attack President Obama for going on vacation."
Then: "It's no surprise if you've been losing sleep over what's been going on in the White House. The Better Sleep Council wanted to find out which candidate would make people lose more sleep over the next four years.

"Their ingenious poll of registered voters shows that President Bush has a 42-40 percent edge as the one who would lead you to have more sleepless nights. Well, the good news for President Bush is they did choose him, as well, as Commander in Sleep. Forty-four percent say he seems the more well rested candidate of the two.

Probably because he spends so much time on vacation, Gary? I don't know." [October 11, 2004]

About the golf outings. Bush during his presidency played 24 rounds of golf. He quit playing in October 2003, saying it was out of respect for families of servicemen killed in Iraq. His vacations by the way, were more often than not working vacations spent at his ranch. He usually had his staff with him, and fulfilled all his presidential duties there, same as if he were at the White House. His ranch is a genuine working ranch, where they do real honest to God ranch work. He went there to do ranching stuff, with the fully functioning western White House there.

So far, in less than two years, the Bamster has played 41 rounds of golf, nearly all of them the full 18 holes. That's more than 200 hours of golf. That's about twenty five eight-hour work days. That's five work weeks. He's been golfing ten times since the disaster in the golf. He's taken long weekends vacationing in Asheville, North Carolina and Chicago, Illinois. This weekend he's going to a little resort town in Mount Desert Island, Maine. A lot of citizens that had been saving up to vacation there have been bumped from their rooms, and the quiet restful town will be an unrestful mess.

Nero set Rome on fire and blamed the Christians. Looks like Obama has set America on fire and blames Conservatives and the Republican Party. There were of course, no fiddles for Nero to play while Rome burned, so perhaps we can change the phrase to 'Obama played golf while America burned'.

Put the Burger Down and Step Away

Michelle Obama, after lecturing people about eating healthy food during her address to the NAACP a couple days ago, went to an ice cream parlor and had a large chocolate "Hurricane Swirl". Her husband is way too often popping into greasy burger joints and woofing down beefy mush burgers with all the fixin's.

While doing that, they have visited upon us an electronic tracking system of your health records, that will be open to every government bureaucrat in Amerika. This will be in place by 2014, by law of ObamaCare, and you will be required to have your BMI in your electronic records. “Calculate body mass index. Automatically calculate and display body mass index (BMI) based on a patient’s height and weight.”

These will be know as electronic health records (EHRs). If health care providers do not comply with putting their patients BMI in the EHR, and forwarding it to the Federal government, then there will be penalties.

Section 301 of the law:
"Section 3001 of the stimulus law says: "The National Coordinator shall, in consultation with other appropriate Federal agencies (including the National Institute of Standards and Technology), update the Federal Health IT Strategic Plan (developed as of June 3, 2008) to include specific objectives, milestones, and metrics with respect to the following: (i) The electronic exchange and use of health information and the enterprise integration of such information.‘‘(ii) The utilization of an electronic health record for each person in the United States by 2014."


The BMI, Body Mass Index, for those of you not up on health lingo, is used to determine if you're fat or not (height to weight ratio). With this law, your BMI info will be sent to any federal or state government health agency.

Here's another quote from the law: “Electronically record, retrieve, and transmit syndrome based public health surveillance information to public health agencies.”

The ultimate goal of ObamaCare is that everyone will be on a single payer government health care program, except of course the wealthy Obama's and other wealthy people, politicians, union members, and federal employees. Once the law is in effect, if you change your health care policy, or changing jobs changes your health care policy, then you must, under penalty of law, buy a policy sanctioned by the government. Corporations will shed their employee policies because it's cheaper to pay fines for not providing employee coverage than maintaining their policies.

Plus, if the government, once you're forced onto their program, thinks your BMI too high, you will of course have to pay a higher fee or tax toward the health care program. Of course all those greasy burger joints will be taxed extra for selling food not approved by the government, which means the patrons will have to pay more because business taxes are passed to the consumer, and burgers drive up fat. Already afoot in several Statist controlled states are extra taxes on 'sugary drinks'. The Statist government in NYC tells chefs how much salt they can use (I think this is a pending law). Are you more that ten pounds over on your BMI? Better loose it by 2014 and keep it off.

All the men will look like the cover models on "Men's Health" magazine and all the women will look like super models. We will all use our gorgeous bodies to bow down to the State.

Can't Clean Up Some Oil, But Can Clean Up Some Blogs

Here's a Statist's dream, shutting down thousands of blogs. Democrats for years have been trying to shut down sectors of the Internet, and have even tried to get legislation passed to be able to shut down the whole thing whenever they want, which I chronicled here.

The Obama Government (used to be the people's government) has just shut down a blogger platform affecting 73,000 bloggers.

There are sites that have rip off streaming of movies and games, but Vice President Biden and an agency called Intellectual Property Enforcement have used that as an excuse to shut down thousands of unrelated sites. Wordpress, which offers free blogging platforms like Blogspot, has stated that they're the platform the government shut down, affecting the 73,000 bloggers.

What we have here are a few sites running some rip off operation, and the government uses it as an excuse to shut down all those other sites. The Statist Obama Government has not released any information on what the specific transgressions are. Once again we're treated to the transparent Obama Government.

This is timed perfectly with the coming Senate approval of anti-free speech Statist Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court. She believes the Constitution gives the government the right to limit speech in Amerika.
Kagan: "Whether a given category of speech enjoys First Amendment protection depends upon a categorical balancing of the value of the speech against its societal costs."

Legislation to take control of the Internet, 73,000 blogs shut down in one swoop, and a Supreme Court Justice that does not believe in free speech.

Chilled yet?

Dialog With A Dem

In several venues, I've had discourse with Libs, and pretty much it ends with ad hominem attacks. I'm narrow minded, stuck in my way of thinking, don't have enough schooling, don't know what I'm talking about (while they just make up stuff whole cloth). Of course I can show vids of people saying what I said they said, show hard cold numbers to support my contentions, provide first person accounts of events, and none of it matters.

Here's pretty much how a political discussion goes with a Democrat or any of their Statist fellow travelers.

Conservative: We're about $14 trillion in debt, about $2.5 of it generated in the first eighteen months of the Obama administration. How to you justify running up so much debt? That's more than Bush in eight years, and he was a big spender too.

Dem: See, it's Bush's fault.

Conservative: Okay, that may have started it, but you guys have basically tripled down. How do you justify that? I mean, that can't be paid off in a couple of generations even if we just quit spending.

Dem: It's Bush's fault.

Conservative: Okay, moving on then. The BP oil spill in the Gulf. That rig had passed on all the Federal inspections and regulations, and was given the go ahead by the Federal Government. Really, both the company and the government were at fault, causing the most horrific environmental catastrophe in US history. Obama and you guys say you had nothing to do with it. How do you justify such a statement?

Dem: It's Bush's fault.

Conservative: Okay. Well, by law, getting the mess cleaned up is the Federal Government's responsibility, yet nothing was done for nearly two months after the disaster. Why not?

Dem: It's Bush's fault.

Conservative: I get the picture. Let's change up a bit. While the economy is tanking, there's a huge environmental disaster, foreign leaders are mocking the president, he's been to over a hundred political fund raisers, taken several vacations, played more rounds of golf in a year and a half than Bush did in eight years (for which he was roundly and soundly mocked and criticized), plus parties and concerts galore at the White House. How can you justify this kind of behavior in light of all the problems this country faces?

Dem: You're a racist.

Conservative: Indeed, and a cracker too. Obama and you guys have taken control of a huge sector of the automotive industry, health care and health insurance industries, indeed well on your way to controlling all insurance companies, and today it looks like the take over what's left of the financial industry that you don't already control, will be completed with new financial regulatory legislation. Much of the energy industries are so heavily regulated by you guys, I'd be safe in saying the energy sector of the economy is also government run. How do you justify the government controlling everything?

Dem: People are stupid and they must understand we know what's best for them, including how to spend their money. Senator Boxer was right when she said that even though email to her office ran about 85% against health care reform , she said it was only because people just don't understand we are doing what's best for them. She's absolutely right.

Conservative: About 70% of people were against the health care bill, 70% side with Arizona SB1070 to protect their border with Mexico, about 60% are against your "Cap and Trade" legislation, about 70% against the Financial reform bill due to be passed today...overwhelmingly your legislation is against the will of the American people. Doesn't it bother you that you're, for the most part, ruling against the will of the American people?

Dem: They're racists.

Conservative: Thank you for your time. I'll be on my racist, liberty loving way. Maybe go to a racist TEA party rally with my cracker friends. Thanks for your time.

Glad We Live in a Post Racial America XV-Thank You Obama

Today the racist NAACP, which used to be a civil rights group, denounced white people by passing a resolution that attacked "bigoted elements" of the TEA (Taxed Enough Already) Party movement. Of course no examples of the rampant racism of people wanting to pay less money to corrupt incompetent politicians, and restrict their power to tell us how to live our lives. Michelle Obama, while telling us what to eat, yesterday said: "When African American communities are still hit harder than just about anywhere by this economic downturn, and so many families are just barely scraping by, I think the founders would tell us that now is not the time to rest on our laurels. When stubborn inequalities still persist -- in education and health, in income and wealth, I think those founders would urge us to increase our intensity, and to increase our discipline and our focus and keep fighting for a better future for our children and our grandchildren." [italics mine] What the hell planet are these racists, Democrats, NAACP, Black Panthers, living in? Criticize Black Panthers for standing outside a voting place, in paramilitary uniforms threatening white people from voting, and you're a racist! I'm sick of it! Michelle Obama made it quite clear with her comments to the racist NAACP yesterday she's a racist.

The Democrat Party are the racists! All their Left wing support groups are racist. The SEIU, ACLU, Teamsters, all those union thugs are racists!

Time magazine even had a cover story postulating that white babies are born racists. Dogs can be racists!

Support the rule of law the Left says you're a racist. If you criticize Mexicans gushing across the border killing, raping and murdering American citizens, then you are a racist. I say, the hell to all of you racist leftists!

This is the post racial Amerika Obama said we would have after his election. I don't see the rise of the oceans slowing, I do see an incompetent president that didn't know what to do for nearly two months into the Gulf oil spill, except whine and bitch about how everything was everybody else's fault and he's going to sue. Wah wah wah. He still doesn't know what the hell he's doing.

I remember the accusation after Katrina, that Bush sent Black Ops Rangers in to blow up levies to drown Black people. That he didn't send any help for two days to cause death and suffering to Black people. The racist Jurassic Press told stories of white people running around killing Black people. Never happened. How would all you Leftist racists feel if it were said the reason Obama didn't do anything for nearly two months after the oil rig explosion because only a bunch of white redneck Christian crackers were being affected. That story after the passage of ObamaCare of a Black congressman walking through a crowd, and he said he was spit on and called the "N" word. A gazillion cameras, not one shot, and he retracted his statement. Liars. Leftist racist liars.

Even racist, race baiting, shakedown extortionist Jesse Jackson, on LeBron James decision to change basketball teams. After Cav's owner spoke his displeasure about James decision, racist Jackson said, “He speaks as an owner of LeBron and not the owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers.” “His feelings of betrayal personify a slave master mentality. He sees LeBron as a runaway slave." What a bottom sucking low life scumbag.

I am sick unto death of the racist NAACP, I'm sick unto death of TEA Party movement members being called racists, I'm sick undo death of being called a racist for opposing the fascist agenda of Obama, the fascist agenda of the Dems, the fascist agenda of Liberals, of being called a racist because I'm white, being a racist because I believe in individual Liberty over the State telling me how to live my life and stealing my hard earned money. Sick of being called a racist for wanting our border protected. SICK OF IT! Shut the hell up NAACP, Black Panthers, Dems, all you fascist, communist #%@#$%@#! Look at yourselves and that's were you see racism. Not only have you enslaved Black people again, you're trying to enslave the rest of us into submission to your fascist State. I say, HELL NO! See you in November.
