Back to Basics

The days of race sensitivity should end.  No longer should a person be afraid to speak his or her mind over a racially tinged matter.  This has been the rule that blacks follow; saying whatever they wish about whites, whenever they please.

It is a two-edged sword that cuts both ways.  If a black can threaten to kill white babies, and do it with impunity, then there is no reason why whites should not have the same privilege to threaten black babies without recourse.  Of course, most blacks and whites would never do such a thing as they pride themselves in being sane and rational human beings.  I can’t say the same about Black Panthers in particular.  They are interested only in black power.

They are like the mouse that taunts and screeches at the elephant.  Because the elephant is timid, it looks and acts afraid when just lifting one hoof and slamming it down on the mouse would end the confrontation.

Oh, of course, there are cases where the mighty Black Power is evident; particularly at the voting polls against very senior white citizens that could get blown down by a strong wind.  The Black Panthers have met their prey and they strut about shouting Black Panther epithets and scary orders. But even there they prefer to be numerically superior for added protection.

The new “hate speech” law that our racist liberal Democrats rammed through Congress and our racist liberal president signed very willingly again seems to work only in one direction: against the whites, while it protects the blacks.  But they had better learn that they are less than 20 percent of our population while whites are around 70 percent.

Whites are known and praised for their tolerance and acceptance of imaginary or supposed grievances from blacks; but the blacks had better not push too hard with this new phony tool of “hate speech” law because tolerances can be dimmed by ill-conceived threats.

For so long now, blacks have taken for granted, total immunity for any and all transgressions; in particular, the black liberal Democrat politicians. Look at the current cases involving Representatives Charley Rangel and Maxine Waters; it’s disgraceful the way they feel that their sins and omissions of wrong-doing should just be swept under the rug and forgotten.

I have long been intrigued with the final words uttered by those on their actual or figurative deathbeds. The trouble, of course, is that you never know if the words were spontaneous or rehearsed, whether they were really spoken aloud or were conjured up after the fact by someone who hoped to gain for himself a piece of anonymous immortality by acting as a giving-up-the-ghost writer.

While I have no way of vouching for their authenticity, I regard the following farewells as among the most memorable.

Henry Ward Beecher said, “Now comes the mystery,” although I would have thought “Now comes the solution to the mystery” the more appropriate assumption on the part of the notable preacher.

Heinrich Heine, a rather presumptuous fellow even for a German poet, insisted, “God will pardon me. It is his trade.”

Humphrey Bogart mused, “I should have never switched from Scotch to martinis,” although a wiser decision regarding his vices would have been to kick the nicotine habit before it kicked him.

Luther Burbank, the noted horticulturist, might have been expected to come up with something a little more flowery than “I don’t feel good” if he had only known how just far from good he really felt.

Dylan Thomas, who seems to have been a rather competitive sort of fellow for a sot, boasted, “I have just had 18 whiskeys in a row. I do believe that is a record.”

Environmental justice demands that the United States address global warming, the gravest threat facing minority Americans, insist the EPA, Congressional Black Caucus and White House. Are they serious?

The alleged threat pales next to unwed teen motherhood, school dropouts, murder and other crime. But even assuming human carbon dioxide emissions will cause average global temperatures to rise a few degrees more than they have already since the Little Ice Age ended, it is absurd to suggest that any such warming would harm minorities more than policies imposed in the name of preventing climate change.

Human activities have not replaced the complex natural forces that drove climate change throughout Earth’s history. But even if manmade greenhouse gases do contribute to planetary warming, slashing US emissions to zero would bring no benefit, because steadily rising emissions from China, India, Brazil and other rapidly growing economies would almost instantly replace whatever gases we cease emitting.

Most important, fossil fuels power the economic engine that ensures justice and opportunity in America today. Policies that make energy less reliable and affordable reduce business revenues and profits, shrink investment and innovation, imperil economic recovery, and hobble job creation, civil rights, and the pursuit of happiness and the American dream.

Whether they take the form of cap-and-trade, carbon taxes, restrictions on drilling and coal mining, or EPA rules under its claim that carbon dioxide “endangers” human health and welfare, anti-energy policies frustrate the natural desire of poor and minority Americans to improve their lives.

As to coping with higher temperatures, restrictive energy policies send electricity prices skyrocketing, making it harder for low-income households to afford air conditioning, and putting lives at risk. They send poor families back to pre-AC misery of bygone eras, like the 1896 heat wave that killed 1,300 people in New York City’s sweltering tenements. In wintertime, they make heating less affordable, again putting lives at risk.

I recently documented the connection between energy policies and civil rights. My “Justice through Affordable Energy for Wisconsin” report focuses on the Dairy State, where I grew up. However, its lessons apply to every state, especially the 26 that get 48-98% of their electricity from coal or have a strong manufacturing base. (The full report can be found at www.CFACT.org)

For recording this video with his helmet camera of an irate and possibly out-of-control State Trooper, 25-year-old Maryland Air National Guard staff sergeant Anthony Graber is facing 16 years in prison.

Graber was cut off in traffic and stopped by the gun-wielding plainclothes officer after speeding down Interstate 95 in Maryland on his motorcycle. He was, rightly, charged with speeding. But state police didn’t like the fact that Graber posted his video on YouTube.

So in April state police raided his parents’ home in Abingdon, Md., and confiscated his camera, computer and external hard drives. Then he was indicted on a charge of violating state wiretap laws by recording the trooper.

Many of us were raised with the idea that the police are there to protect us. But the proliferation of hand-held recording devices is proving true what petty criminals, blacks and other minorities have maintained for years: All too often those sworn to protect us are nothing more than abusive, power-mad thugs with the authority of the state behind their actions.

And since the state doesn’t like it when its officers are made to look bad, the state is now twisting the original intent of wiretap laws to make everyone carrying a cell phone into a possible criminal.

Miami journalist Carlos Miller, who runs the blog “Photography Is Not a Crime” told ABC News he has documented at least 10 such arrests since he started keeping track in 2007. Miller himself has been arrested twice. One case he won on appeal and the other was thrown out after the officer twice failed to appear in court.

Just what is it about bilingualism that pushes certain liberals over the edge and into the streets as “Tower of Babel” sales sharks?

Take Barack Obama, for example.

Although the Anointed One rarely makes much sense, his cynical brand of radical extremism was particularly evident when he foolishly chided Americans for not being more language diverse.

This despite the fact that the Obama One is, himself, fluent only in English. Bilingual he is not, and not likely to become.

Obama’s offensive language meddling during the 2008 campaign reflects a gooey-eyed predilection for bilingualism common among clueless liberals.

According to elitist “progressive” standards, speaking at least two languages automatically makes one a better citizen of the world, more spiritual, more human, more deserving of everything including sexual pleasure.

Proficiency in three or more languages confers the honor of Intellectual Elitist on one so blessed, according to liberals.

Bob Ewing of the Institute for Justice has a must-read, true-life tale of how Big Labor educrats killed the D.C. school choice program.

In a nutshell, the teacher unions bought off politicians to kill a program that improved the fortunes of thousands of the poorest kids in DC:

-The program saved taxpayers millions of dollars

-Rigorous studies by the Department of Education showed the program was a huge success, improving academic performance as well as the chance that kids would graduate

-Parents loved it: Four applications were filled out for every spot available

-The teachers unions bought off politicians to help themselves at the expense of thousands of the poorest kids in DC

-If the politicians that exercise school choice themselves voted to save this school choice program, it would have been saved

-90 percent of the kids forced out of the program were reassigned to failing public schools

It’s criminal educational malpractice and, as Ewing put it, the “education debacle of the decade.”

Tom WHPC

‘Reporter Tom’, WHPC member, describes for Gibbs how he was at a ‘ Tea Party Rally’ last Thursday and heard someone singing a song about a “Communist in the White House”, I am pretty sure it was this one.  He also mentions about all the other “Socialist rhetoric” he heard.  He wants to  know if the president has plans to address the disconnect between the Tea Party, considering the fact Obama claimed the Tea Party should be thanking him.  But as it always seems to be the best way for the White House to handle these matters is to use old campaign style talking points about the tax cuts for 95% of Americans and how Obama saved the economy of America from collapse. Both are lies and America is tired of hearing this. Gibbs then simply goes on to dismiss the actual content of the question.

‘Reporter Tom’ attempts to get a real answer one more time from Gibbs but is shut down as Gibbs goes on and responds to the second question with more progressive strategy and calls Tom Tencredo a lunatic for suggesting Obama should perhaps consider going back home to Kenya. A sentiment shared by many Americans it would seem.

The way Gibbs handles this is classic Cloward and Piven, Saul Alinsky strategy, as described in the books by these three socialist.  It involves demeaning the opposition, beat them down until they no longer appear important or even human.  Make them irrelevant by ignoring them and the real issue, dismissiveness on a grand scale.

I have slightly edited the transcript shown above from that found on the CSPAN page featuring this video.

The whole thing about this is how can Robert Gibbs and the White House be so dismissive of the questions when being asked directly about the Tea Party movement. But when not being confronted by the truth they stand and call the Tea Party Violent Racist, even the term Domestic Terrorist” is being bandied about by the White house administration to describe the Tea Party and the over all ‘Right’. The ‘State Controlled’ media like MSNBC, CBS and ABC are all complicit in this as well. It is a very deliberate propaganda that is very much factually incorrect.

Everyone stop blogging.  Don’t you see what you are doing to this country?  You are distracting from what Obama means and focusing on what he does.  We are emancipation?! Yes we are.  POTUS said so!  And we all want to be POTUS approved now don’t we?  If we are POTUS approved like HuffPo then we can talk and spread propaganda news.  POTUS approved news.

Oh yeah and I am not going to back up my blog post anymore with the words out of their mouths in videos THEY have shot.  That will be easy since I am done blogging, right?  I am going to remain silent.  I have nothing to fight for right?  So why bother.  Status quot looks good from here.  At least my collective share looks ok, I think…..can I have a bit more?  No, oh ok.  Shut up you say?  Ok … shhhh I better shut up now folks.

<<<< Do not watch this video.  It may contain too much information. >>>>

This has got to stop.  So I am going to be first, I’ll stop now.  Right now.  That is the last thing I blog… ever. It has been nice knowing ya folks.

No more dissemination of the facts for me.  Yep I have stopped spreading the truth about Marxist influencing, hell writing the legislation for the 111th Congress.  See up there Where I state that is it the last thing I type… ever?  It is, I mean it was…. I mean oh this is just to confusing, it is!  The last thing I mean.  I type.  Ok I have it now.  I had to review my Obama indoctrination tapes.  You know how sometimes you have a brain fart?  Yeah!! right!   Well for me trying to recall all of Obamas sh%t kinda gives my brain gas.  A “Brain Fart”!  Blame Bush!  /He delt it!  haa haa… Nope!  Sorry excuse me the dog did it!  Yeah I know it smells like capital Hill right? Oh sorry I got sidetracked.  Now where was I?  Oh yeh.

I will no longer warn people that our liberty is in peril.   I will not warn people that times similar to these we see now have occurred in the past.  I have stopped typing way back there in that last paragraph, see?   I have stopped forwarding emails with quotes from newspaper articles printed years ago that show history and its parallels with today.  I am not warning anyone else about how the ginormous debt being added to everyday by POTUS policy will leave our grandchildren in servitude for decades to come, long after its all already been spent.  Spent on bailing out Union pensions.  Spent on presidential campaigns by unions.   I’ll never talk about how Union intimidation has forced action that is not in the best interest of the country but has benefited the few.

And I most certainly will not remark about remote possibility that due to martial law we may not even get to vote come November.  All we need is some sort of Crisis!  It could be called up because of an oil spill catastrophe or a world wide staggering blow to the food chain, due to some ecological emergency, like the Oil well that spewed Oil for 6 months.  Or the possibility of  world war three starting in the Mediterranean Sea and the war in Afghanistan and the battle against Radical Islam.  Yes sir ree bub!  I am not going to say another word.  My key board is turned off NOW.  You will not see me slam Environmentalist Progressives for destroying what is left of the American economy.  I even will keep my mouth shut about the people like Bawney Fwank and Chris Dodd and how they knowingly allowed Fannie and Freddie to implode.  I’ll no longer disseminate these facts.  I am going to be a good little lemming now and follow the leader.

Does anybody out there have any memory of the reason given for the establishment of the
DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY during the Carter Administration?

Anybody?

Anything?

No?

Didn’t think so!

Bottom line . . .

We’ve spent several hundred billion dollars in support of an agency . . .
the reason for which not one person who reads this can remember.  Ready?

It was very simple . . . And at the time everybody thought it very appropriate . . .

The ‘Department of Energy’ was instituted on 8-04-1977
TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL.

Hey, pretty efficient, huh?

AND NOW IT’S 2010, 33 YEARS LATER,
AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS NECESSARY DEPARTMENT IS AT $24.2 BILLION A YEAR,
IT HAS 16,000 FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND
APPROXIMATELY 100,000 CONTRACT EMPLOYEES
AND LOOK AT THE JOB IT HAS DONE!

THIS IS WHERE YOU SLAP YOUR FOREHEAD AND SAY ‘WHAT WAS I THINKING?’

Ah, yes, good old bureaucracy . . . And NOW — we are going to turn the Banking System, Health Care and
the Auto Industry over to government ALL IN THE NAME OF CHANGE?

May God Help Us!

I received this in an email and thought it was very appropriate…do we want more of the same?

No, I really don’t see a pattern here to justify profiling, do you? So, to ensure we Americans never offend anyone, particularly fanatics intent on killing us, airport security screeners will no longer be allowed to profile certain people. They must conduct random searches of 80 year old women, little kids, airline pilots with proper identification secret agents, who are members of the President’s security detail, 85 year old Congressmen with metal hips, and Medal of Honor winner and former Governor Joe Foss, but leave Muslim Males between the ages of 17 and 40 alone lest they be guilty of profiling. Let’s send this to as many people as we can.

Foot note: Fort Hood Texas – another Muslim 39 years old killed 13 and wounded 30 others. Does this fit the profile?

NOW, we are being told that the young Muslim that attempted to blow up Northwest/ Delta jet on Christmas Day was “an isolated incident”. YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!
