Hope for What and Change to What?

July 12, 2011 Leave a comment

“…And we have abdicated our position as a world leader, as if our desire were not for security, but for exploitation – another example of that decried Colonialism which the Left sees everywhere…What greater act of colonialism than to bind a segment of own population to shame and poverty through government subsidy and by the insistence that they be judged by lower standards than the populace-at-large? We have created a permanent underclass through the ignorant and sententious operations of the mis-educated and ignorant. And we compound the legislative enormity by insistence in education on “diversity” and “multiculturalism”. These are a codependence similar in the prewar South on the Biblical support of Slavery.”
….
“Diversity” (and “multiculturalism”) is a pat on the head from the White members of my generation sufficiently inexperienced and self-absorbed to feel they are entitled to “bless their inferiors.”

2012: I’m Shovel Ready

July 9, 2011 Leave a comment

2012:  Do you really want four more years of:

  • Blaming Bush for the enormous national debt incurred under Obama’s watch?
  •  Blaming corporate jet owners for having money? (The jets are primarily used to make sales that create & maintain jobs. BTW: Nancy Pelosi uses a government (the largest corp.)- jet.)
  •  Straw man arguments leading to more blaming of others and deflection of responsibility?
  •  
  • Obama’s wars?
  •  
  • Blaming the failure of bad economic policies on under funding (not enough tax money coming in)?
  •  
  • 9.2 % unemployment, recession and inflation?
  •  
  • Condescension, obstinacy & shaming?
  •  
  • A destructive learning curve for a Chicago politician with no life experience other than the circle jerking of community organizing?
  •  
  • Class warfare & the segregation of people into economic & social classes, turning America backwards in time?
  •  
  • Inciting racism and hate speech among blacks and the liberal media?
  •  
  • Being told that social justice favors the poor and takes advantage of the rich?
  •  
  • Incompetence at every turn? (Did it really take much thought to pull the trigger on UBL?)
  •  
  • Utter & blatant narcissism?
  •  
  • No business acumen whatsoever?
  •  
  • A president who blindly sides with militant Palestinians against Israel?
  •  
  • A president who apologizes for the US every chance he gets (to win approval)?
  •  
  • A First Lady who says living in the White House is hell.
  •  
  • Knowing that your future earnings will be given to the government and that you get only pennies on the dollar in return?
  •  
  • The theocracy of Socialism? Of the greed of preference?
  •  
  • A “fair share” democracy which is defined by a small elite intellectual class and not by Justice?
  •  
  • Putting Americans on the Road to Serfdom subject to the whims of an elite intellectual class? Of making Americans useful idiots?
  •  
  • Obama’s political favoritism towards GE, labor unions and himself? Of never putting America first?
  •  
  • A president who claims he is a Christian but uses Christ’s name only as a means to get his campaign in the door of churches and onto the screeds written by social justice’s “useful idiots”?
  •  
  • Czars not sanctioned by Congress but paid for with your tax dollars (these people have jobs): Afghanistan Czar; AIDS Czar; Border Czar; California Water Czar; Car Czar; Central Region Czar; Climate Czar; Cyber Czar; Domestic Violence Czar; Drug Czar; Economic Czar; Energy and Environment Czar; Faith-Based Czar; Government Performance Czar; Great Lakes Czar; Green Jobs Czar; Guantanamo Closure Czar; Health Czar; Information Czar; Intelligence Czar; Mideast Peace Czar; Pay Czar; Regulatory Czar; Science Czar; Stimulus Accountability Czar; Sudan Czar; TARP Czar; Technology Czar; Terrorism Czar; Urban Affairs Czar; Weapons Czar; WMD Policy Czar
  •   
  • Sloganeering:  Change, Hope, Yes We Can…of spin?
  •  
  • A dumb-ing down of America for equal outcomes?
  •  
  • The loss of property?
  •  
  • The inability to use God-given natural resources?
  •  
  • The devaluation of your citizenship by this administration’s blind eye to illegal immigration (to gain political advantage)
  •  
  • The list goes on…but America may not, if Obama is re-elected.

Cause and Effect: No Margin for Error

July 5, 2011 Leave a comment

Read first:

http://www.foxnews.com/health/2011/07/05/india-health-minister-calls-homosexuality-disease/?test=latestnews

Certainly the spread of HIV/AIDS in India, Africa, the US and throughout the world is, for the most part, due to unrestrained homosexual activity, activity promoted by the homosexual community. The proliferation of HIV/AIDS does not come from marginalization.

Yet, as seen in the above article, the Indian homosexual advocate Anjali Gopalan does not address the cause of HIV/AIDS.  He, in instead, blames the homosexual’s supposed marginalization as the reason that HIV/AIDs treatments are not happening fast enough to keep pace with the unnatural sexual activity.

Anjali offers two points countering the health minister’s statement that homosexuality is an unnatural disease: the marginalization of the homosexual and the need for community building. He does not address, of course, the prevention of AIDS.  Instead, Anjali deflects the problem on to others, seeking to shame them and to make them responsible for homosexuals not having HIV/AIDS treatments readily available. There is no mention by Anjali as to why the disease continues to be pervasive in the homosexual community.

News Flash:  HIV/AIDS marginalizes people through its own destructive means.  Social marginalization does not cause HIV/AIDS in a person.  Lack of self control on the part of the homosexual causes the spread of HIV/AIDS. Does anyone not believe this?

Other than having received a tainted blood transfusion or having had sex with an unfaithful partner, HIV/AIDS is a self-induced disease. You do know this don’t you?

Further, homosexuality does not lend itself to community building and certainly not through the reproduction of its citizens. Homosexuality marginalizes its practitioners into a group which practices unnatural sex, apart from the rest of society.  A community, diseased from within with homosexuality, will soon destroy itself, much like HIV/AIDS destroys the immune system of the one who has permitted it to come in.

The above article shows us once again that the homosexual community’s projection of its own lack of caring (consider the obvious transmission of AIDS from one person to the next) and its own need to feed its sense of self onto the healthy community is typical of narcissism.

You watch the news. Homosexuality gives nothing back to the community.  It only demands and takes.  An activist will tell us that will have “Diversity.”  Diversity was around long before homosexual community took over its meaning.  Diversity in the past was often used, with  positive connotations, to mean a choice of options or variety.  But the term has now been obfuscated to mean having homosexuality around as a good thing. Diversity now means a variety of what? Of sexual options?  Of sexual partners? Of sexually transmitted diseases?  Of mental and emotional illnesses?

Certainly a diseased diversity adds nothing of value to our community.  Today, a “Diverse” community is one with homosexuals many of whom have HIV/AIDS – a horrible disease propagated over and over again by homosexuality itself, spread across a self-marginalizing group of people. These people were once part of a healthy community before they ever contracted HIV/AIDS, before they ever engaged in the act of homosexuality. We are told that this “Diversity” is a good thing by homosexual activists. (Accept it or be called a homophobe by their bullies).

Someone should tell Anjali that the spread of HIV/AIDS can be mitigated with the cessation of homosexual activity.  In other words, stop doing what is unnatural, stop spreading the disease. Control yourself and stop blaming others.

Believing a lie only marginalizes truth and makes us a community of dupes.

Get Without the Program

June 30, 2011 Leave a comment

I think a lot of people, especially college kids, recent grads and sixties leftovers voted for Obama in 2008 hoping to download the Cradle to Grave Entitlement App – Push the button, download the App and government does it all:  health care, social security, cheap student loans, amnesty for all, social justice, diversity…: “

A Recent Review: 

“This App is fantastic.  We won’t have to think or make choices. We will just be, creating our Good Ideas to save the planet, making things fair and equal. We can do this by spending the currency of veteran’s blood, blood shed giving us freedom we couldn’t handle anyway – its way too scary and  too complex. Instead, we will choose not to choose.  We’ve got to get ourselves back to the garden. We will then be able to enjoy the safety of our peeps (i.e., the herd)around the campfire.”

 Review #2: 

“With Obama and this Cradle to Grave Mobile App we can return to egalitarian Egypt where everything will be provided for us.  Our lives will be neatly ordered for us. In Egypt we will all be equal and treated the same. No one will be exceptional. No one will stand out. It will finally be fair.”

Review #3: 

“Here’s an APP that will satisfy my parents.  They always want me to go to church.  With this APP  I can be religious just by texting donations to Real Celebrity causes, ASPCA, Al Gore, Planned Parenthood and even George Soros’ Media Matters to fight the evil Fox News.”

Cradle to Grave App cost: Your liberty, your freedom, your income, your choices,  your self.
Availability: Download available November 2012. Text  *OBAMA APP YES WE CAN MASSAH or call 1-800-FOR-1984

Palin Support Not Failin’

June 29, 2011 Leave a comment

In this video, notice how the opposing views resort to attacking Adrienne Ross and Sarah Palin.  They do not present alternative issues or constructive rebuttal. They lash out with personal attacks against both of these women.

Give Obama more time to ruin our nation?  No thanks. One term was enough to break the legs of our economy.
******

“The urge of the Left to surrender choice and self-government for illusion, to insist upon Statism and Government rule, rather than a Government of Service, is a rejection of the lesson of Exodus.
For it is obvious to the meanest intellect that the Government cannot make cars, health care, industry in general, better than would individual human beings not only interested in but inexorably tied to the outcome of such operations. The endorsement of the Socialist, Statist system, then is not a desire for more and better goods and services, but a surrender of this desire in return for an obviation of the necessity of personal choice. It is a regression not to the tribe, but to the herd.” From the chapter titled The Red Sea

“…the change which Obama’s rhetoric referred to preceded and will follow him, accelerated by and his policies, accepted by a drugged populace and supine press. It is unfortunate descent of a productive nation into socialism, which as I understand it, is robbing Peter to pay Paul. I don’t think it’s any more complex than that.” From the chapter titled Choice.

Sarah Palin’s ‘Undefeated’ Doc Sets World Premiere for Tuesday in Iowa

“What would make a celebrity, like you saw on screen, so hate someone that they’d seek their destruction, their death, the death of their children? What would make someone be so full of hate and, I guess, a sense of being threatened that they would want to see that person destroyed?”

The movie begins with Sen. John McCain introducing his running mate, then quickly cuts to theHollywoodsign, and the music turns ominous. A TV news anchor says, “Hollywoodhas a new favorite pastime: taking aim at Sarah Palin.”

Then the celebrity montage begins: Damon likens Palin to a “really bad Disney movie” and says she’s “really scary”; Letterman attacks her, and the discourse descends in to the filthy from there. Maher insults her on his TV show, Madonna screams obscenities about her while on stage, and comedians use graphic, severely bleeped language to describe Palin and the intensity with which they “hate her.”

Mad Hominem

Barack Hussein Obama or Mr. Strawman Wizard, the shaman of progressive bushwa, wants tax increases to fight the deficit. He says he wants to sacrifice sacred cows.

In fact, Mr. Strawman Wizard says that he doesn’t want our kids to be sacrificed.  He wants the owners of corporate jets to be sacrificed. He wants to do this for the gods of social justice – the class warfare gods. They are not happy campers on Mount Olympus (see the riots in Greece for more information). 

Wow! I wonder if  Michele will have to cancel her next trip out of the country?  (What’s that?  A four on the hole, Mr. Obama?)

(“Gee, Mr Wizard, you could use your one billion dollar campaign fund to help pay off the deficit.” “Peabody, we have millionaires for that.”)

If you don’t know by now, Obama’s demand of the Republicans is the standard, out of the box solution for a Democrat: Raise Taxes (and building casinos). But can you believe it? This is what this most intelligent (we are told) man wants to do:  Raise taxes. This Chicago Whiz Kid Pol has no other plan!

Once again we see the continued attempt to shakedown (called redistribution of wealth by progressives & socialists) the American People through the tax system.

You undoubtedly know that we are in a recession and we have inflation:  gas prices are up, food prices are up and the housing market is in the dumpster.  When was the last time you had a decent pay increase?

Moronic squeeze:  inflation and a tax increase w/malaise to go before I sleep.

 It is way past time to tar, feather and run this witch doctor out on a rail (or, at least put him in the Way Back machine where he can’t sacrifice anybody.)

***********

Milton Friedman:

 “I am favor of cutting taxes under any circumstances and for any excuse, for any reason, whenever it’s possible. “

“Inflation is the one form of taxation that can be imposed without legislation. “

“The government solution to a problem is usually as bad as the problem. “

History as Cynicism

June 28, 2011 Leave a comment

Imagine a popular American history book that never mentions Christianity or conservatism. Pull the lever and out comes the pellet –  Howard Zinn’s  A People’s History of the United States, 1492-Present.

Here is a passage from Michael Kazin’s article in Dissent Magazine, talking about this cynically myopic book:

“(Howard Zinn’s) failure is grounded in a premise better suited to a conspiracy-monger’s Web site than to a work of scholarship. According to Zinn, “99 percent” of Americans share a “commonality” that is profoundly at odds with the interests of their rulers. And knowledge of that awesome fact is “exactly what the governments of the United States, and the wealthy elite allied to them-from the Founding Fathers to now-have tried their best to prevent.”

History for Zinn is thus a painful narrative about ordinary folks who keep struggling to achieve equality, democracy, and a tolerant society, yet somehow are always defeated by a tiny band of rulers whose wiles match their greed. He describes the American Revolution as a clever device to defeat “potential rebellions and create a consensus of popular support for the rule of a new, privileged leadership.” His Civil War was another elaborate confidence game. Soldiers who fought to preserve the Union got duped by “an aura of moral crusade” against slavery that “worked effectively to dim class resentments against the rich and powerful, and turn much of the anger against ‘the enemy.'”

Nothing of consequence, in his view, changed during the industrial era, notwithstanding the growth of cities, railroads, and mass communications. Zinn views the tens of millions of Europeans and Asians who crossed oceans at the turn of the past century as little more than a mass of surplus labor. He details their miserable jobs in factories and mines and their desperate, often violent strikes at the end of the nineteenth century-most of which failed. The doleful narrative makes one wonder why anyone but the wealthy came to the United States at all and, after working for a spell, why anyone wished to stay.”

One Very Good Reason Why I Like Texas Gov. Rick Perry

June 12, 2011 Leave a comment

BTW: The separation of church and state effectively means that the state cannot control the church. Separation of church and state does not mean that we the people cannot voice our faith in Almighty God while serving our government. The wrong definition came directly from Bill Ayers, a known radical terrorist.

***You have to listen to these guys:  Bruce Wolf and Dan Proft. They are a riot. Tell them Sally Paradise sent you.
