A House Divided

Andrew McCarthy at NRO talks about the fact that the current regime and its toadies are, in fact, enemies of America...and take every opportunity to publicly condemn her and us....The People who love her.

The staggering spectacle of Democrats giving a standing ovation to Calderon for attacking our countrymen in Arizona & all those that support them may be one of the lowest moments yet in the disgusting trail of outrages perpetrated by this anti-American wannabe Marxist dictator and cronies.

It's hard to contain the anger. The wolf stirs.

Ah...More of that vaunted "transparency"

Does Bambi understand the concept of "LYING"? And the evil immorality of doing it to all Americans—all the time?

Perhaps his Pinko upbringing was the same as fundamentalist Islam:

"It is permissible to lie to the infidels."

He does it so often, so regularly, it seems like a way of life. He's not embarrassed or shy about it. He does it as casually as breathing, lifting his chin and flaring his nostrils.

He also doesn't get called on it by the Ho-Media - who apparently operate in accordance with the same dogma.

The Anointed Øne just ended the requirement that Unions disclose where they get their money....money that they give to Leftist campaigns that undermine the rest of the country and the American Way.

Another nice piece of work, Mr. Resident.

More on INTERPOL immunity in US

Two weeks ago, without any announcement, debate, discussion or inquiry from journalists charged with “speaking truth to power” President Obama issued an amendment to this EO.  The amendment removed part of Reagan’s order that kept INTERPOL from having full diplomatic immunity while operating within the United States.  In other words:  Under Reagan and right up until two weeks ago, INTERPOL was authorized to operate within the USA but they did not have full diplomatic immunity and had to adhere to certain laws set forth for investigative agencies.  Laws that prohibit authorities from violating our constitutionally protected rights.

This is bothering me a lot. I'm not sure I'm as sanguine about the "New World Order" issues as the author, Larry O'Connor.  It's actually freakin' me out a little.

Oh, they're never coming after me. I'm cool with that. I mean, it's not personal, or anything. But I don't want these assholes spiriting away former Presidents, CIA agents and Marines to The Hague for what a bunch of pansy-ass Europeans think of as "justice" for what a bunch of pansy-ass Europeans think of as "war crimes".

Just more evidence—like any more was needed—that the TØØL Øbama is for anyone but America.

It's tiresome to say again, but doesn't this sort of thing really demonstrate his hatred—or at least disdain—for America?

Who the hell would authorize foreign agents to work in America, outside the law, investigating Americans citizens—without any provision for the protection of their Constitutional rights, and at the same time, grant full Constitutional protections to Terrorist Unlawful Combatants, and try them in American Courts with American Juries and Justice?

Isn't that what's going on, here?

Seriously, people. WHAT THE FUCK?

Con Coughlin Misses the Critical Point

UK's Spectator has a story by Con Coughlin: A Special Form of Disrespect

The penultimate paragraph:

There will, though, inevitably come a time when Obama discovers who America’s true friends really are. Sooner or later he will have to deal with the considerably more taxing issues of Islamist militancy, rogue nuclear states and other tangible threats to the West’s security. At that point, Obama will discover a simple but essential truth. The world divides between those who support American values of freedom and democracy, and those who seek to destroy them.

Note especially that final sentence:  "The world divides between those who support American values of freedom and democracy, and those who seek to destroy them."

What the writer—and too many other decent people—fail to understand is that "Resident" Øbama is one of the latter.

Flawed Constitution...Really?

Did you know that Barack Hussein Obama said this:

The original Constitution, I think, is an imperfect document. I think it is a document that reflects some deep flaws in the American culture, the colonial culture nascent at the time. I think we can say that, uh, uh, the Constitution reflected an enormous blind spot in this culture, and that the Framers had that same blind spot. It also reflected the fundamentals flaw of this country that continues to this day.*

How is it possible that we have elected a pinhead Leftist Tinkerbell who can actually verbalize this sort of drivel?

I don't know if he's just stupid or evil. I don't care. He and all his incestuous anti-American crew/organizations/puppet-masters/useful idiots/thugs/totalitarians/Borg collectivists/fringe media lapdogs/Zombies are a disease within our body politic, and need to be swept out of any position of influence into the trash heap.

IN MEMORIAM

"Senate immigration subcommittee chairman Edward Kennedy (D-MA.) reassured his colleagues and the nation with the following:

"First, our cities will not be flooded with a million immigrants annually. Under the proposed bill, the present level of immigration remains substantially the same ... Secondly, the ethnic mix of this country will not be upset ... Contrary to the charges in some quarters, [the bill] will not inundate America with immigrants from any one country or area, or the most populated and deprived nations of Africa and Asia ... In the final analysis, the ethnic pattern of immigration under the proposed measure is not expected to change as sharply as the critics seem to think."

Sen. Kennedy concluded by saying,

"The bill will not flood our cities with immigrants. It will not upset the ethnic mix of our society. It will not relax the standards of admission. It will not cause American workers to lose their jobs."

(U.S. Senate, Subcommittee on Immigration and Naturalization of the Committee on the Judiciary, Washington, D.C., Feb. 10, 1965. pp. 1-3.)"

IT'S TIME FOR THE SECOND AMERICAN REVOLUTION!

Let's make it a political one, before we have to make it a violent one!

Democrats and Republicans are selling out our freedom. Neither party is representing us anymore. They have been both been goosestepping down the road to fascism for decades...in spite of our objections, protestations and our warnings. They have no goal but the consolidation of power in their own hands. This current so-called "president" is the worst and the most blatant, but he is only continuing - quadruple time - the journey the Progressives of both parties have decided to force on us against our wills—while enriching themselves obscenely, both in power and treasure, in the process.

Career politicians whose interests are limited to themselves, who disdain us, who would rule us, who would impoverish us, our children, our future and our nation for their own advantage—must be REMOVED...by The People.

They are traitors to the People, the Constitution, the American Idea, the United States. They disgrace themselves and all honest men. They seek nothing less than to erase the very existence of the glorious Republic that our Founders & their generation lived and died to create and bequeath us.

The only question is....Are we worthy of the Founder's trust? Or will we allow these whores, villains and scoundrels to plunge us back into the Dark Ages of serfdom?

I have had enough.

The Small Man's Whine

This is so creepin' me out:

"To move forward, we cannot let ourselves be prisoners of past disagreements. I'm grateful that President Ortega did not blame me for things that happened when I was three months old. Too often, an opportunity to build a fresh partnership of the Americas has been undermined by stale debates. We've all heard these arguments before." --Obama after his nooner with Ortega.

I just finished Atlas Shrugged, and throughout the book the repetitious refrain of the government Looters and scumbags was,

"It's not my fault! Nobody can blame me!"

It's happening before our very eyes. What a tool.

Oh, and a comment I read concerning this anti-American excrement (both words and man) was that surely we could use the same logic...and once and for all get past all the stale debates about slavery.

Obama and the West

I wonder if the "world", particularly the West understands what Obama has just told them?

As they stand up and cheer for the insults to America its "President" delivers, did they understand what those words imply?

He told them America is not a good leader, that we are just one of many nations, that we are arrogant, pushy, derisive of their great wisdom and partnership, and will not act unilaterally in the future.

Now. Let me translate: "America won't be saving your ass ever again. You're on your own."

Here's how that works out: Obama is under the impression that all the European Left's caw-caw-cawing about America is sincere and genuine; that they really want America to stand down and never act internationally & unilaterally for the right and the true. He seems to believe that the nations of Western Europe don't really want the United States to be ready to defend them at a moment's notice.

He seems to think the people of Western Europe don't want us to be the country policing nuclear weapons around the world. He seems to think Europeans don't want us to fight their battles in Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa.

He believes the European Left. And believes it speaks for the European people. Perhaps it does. Perhaps the decades of safety and security provided by the unappreciated parent have made the spoiled brats forget that the house they live in was built with American blood and treasure, and protected with American heroes and watchfulness and vigilance. Perhaps they forget that all the money they do not spend on national defense is shouldered by the American taxpayer...leaving all that "extra" money in Europe to be spent on socialist policies — convincing them that the world is not dangerous because Daddy-America is always on watch.

But Obama's apologies are carrier-waves for a deeper message that everyone seem to have missed — especially the cheering throngs of European Obamaniacs.

When the shit comes down, we won't be there to help. We won't do a thing without the political permission of the governments of Europe, and the direct participation of their 'armies'. We're disarming and weakening our military — for peace — as you all have done. We're going to spend our money on "social justice" and progressive programs, not our warmongering military.

We'll barely be able to defend our own homeland. You're on your own.

When Russia expands, when Iran nukes, when North Korea lobs missiles, when China moves...you're on your own. When Africa implodes...you're on your own. When Jihadists terrorize...you're on your own. America the arrogant and unilateral will have mended her ways, and will not presume to police the world and insult you with her unseemly strength and offensive moral certainty.

That's the hidden message of Barack Obama. He doesn't like Europe any better than he likes America. How do you like his ass now?

You sure you still want to stand up and cheer?

Obama and The World

"First they rebel against King George III and all the crowned heads of Europe. Then they welcome tens of millions of poor and persecuted people from the Old World.

Then they fail to bow down to Europe's greatest figures -- from Napoleon and Otto von Bismarck to the Kaiser, Hitler and Stalin. Then they fight a civil war, losing half a million people to liberate black people in America.

Then they diss the man the BBC considers to be the greatest philosopher ever, one Karl Marx, whose followers killed 100 million innocents in the 20th century.

And then, to top it all off, they liberate both the Western half of Europe (in 1946) and the Eastern half (in 1989)" — James Lewis

Goddamn those arrogant Americans. Aren't you glad Obama's running around apologizing for us? I guess he can't find anyone else to bow to, so he's forced to prostrate himself verbally to everybody within hearing distance.

I just heard a great line: Obama is announcing that America is toothless as an enemy, and treacherous as a friend.

I figure he's as much as sealed the fate of some as yet unknown doomed Americans. Nobody will hesitate to attack us with this guy at the helm. He will be the first to blame America when it happens.

He'll give a speech. Maybe he'll make a joke about retarded kids, or terrorism victims and how awkwardly they walk on prosthetic legs.

Oh, wait. They won't have cutting-edge artificial limbs. We'll have Government Medicine...they'll be tooling around on those cool plywood platforms with little wheels on them. That ought to be good for a laugh.

"What arrogance these Americans have. Either that, or a very, very -- no, stunningly -- ignorant man was just elected president -- largely because millions of benevolent voters believed that we owe black people a presidency. They may come to see that as their biggest mistake ever. In the next couple of years they will see a tripling of government debt, high inflation, a permanent loss in their personal wealth, and a major devaluation of the dollar.

Which, to judge by his recent television performance, should just make him giggle quite inappropriately, in front of God and everybody.

What kind of man has such an obsessive need to put down his own country? Especially given our real history? Has he ever read an honest history book?" —ibid

This is Why I Put "President" in Quotes...

Obama's "Logic"

Jay D. Homnick at American Spectator calls Obama's world-view and mental working "his trademark illogic".

"Yet with each new major utterance by our President, I am overwhelmed by the distorted lens through which he filters our experiences. The world Barack Obama describes is very close to being the exact opposite of reality. With the launching of a nuclear rocket by North Korea and his response in a major address in the Czech Republic, we are again confronted with this inversion of truth.

At this point, our obligation to protest, founded in the intellectual realm, crosses into the grim turf of physical self-defense. Obama, flashing his trademark illogic, has committed our nation to a path toward suicide for us and genocide for humanity. All this because the initial premises diverge from truth, building in an inevitably corrosive warp."

"Celebutarads" & the American Left

This is a perfect example of the sort of "believer" author Jamie Glazov is talking about, in his book United in Hate, about which I wrote in my post Sadism & the Left. I think you'll agree that Sean Penn exhibits all the symptoms:

Celebutards. They walk among us but they are not of us. They eat, sleep and breed just like ordinary humans. But at some magic moment — between the time, say, a movie script wanders into the hands of a world-class celebutard such as George Clooney, and the words travel through lilting vocal chords to land on unsuspecting ears, something terrible occurs. They start to believe in their own ignorance.

A dull thinker such as Madonna becomes, in her mind and in the eyes of devoted fans, a self-appointed sage. Veritable moron Rosie O’Donnell transforms from a shrill, gay mom into a rocket scientist. Sean Penn boldly breaks bread with tyrants and enemies of his own country, vapid pop singer Sheryl Crow calls for rationing toilet paper to one sheet per sitting, and earth avenger Al Gore forgets he lost an election. Give a celebutard a microphone and a little encouragement, and suddenly, without warning, that talented performer says and does things that are really, incredibly, grotesquely dumb.

The term celebutard is believed to have first appeared in the New York Post’s Page Six gossip column, as a compound of celebrity, debutante, and retard. The word is not meant to denigrate those struggling either with youth or with genuine mental challenges. On the contrary, it is a term of art used to describe lazy and egotistical thinkers, stars equipped with abundant money, fame, idle hours and yes-men, who feel secure enough in their own influence and intelligence to create insane foreign or domestic policy in their spare time. It is a choice, rather than an affliction.

In an age in which fabulousness is too often mistaken for gravitas, we must be vigilant. Know the difference between philosophers and blowhards, between Soren Kierkegaard and Susan Sarandon. Know your celebutards.

In this book, you will find subjects familiar to readers of my column in the New York Post (Hillary, Paris), and also those who’ve lately leaped onto the national radar by demonstrating an allergic reaction to ordinary moral sense (Laurie David, the mansion-dwelling, SUV hating, ex-wife of Larry.)

Now, ladies and gentlemen, we have a winner! At no time since the creation of the celebustocracy has the condition been more evident, more frightening, or more psychically painful than in the case of that grandiose mental midget, the reigning King of the Celebutards, the actor Sean Penn.

ONE: THE PENN ISN’T MIGHTIER THAN THE SWORD: SEAN PENN

The brooding, tousle-haired actor, with a style sometimes compared to the late James Dean, was born Sean Justin Penn in Santa Monica, California, on August 17, 1960, the son of director Leo Penn, who was blacklisted during the Communist purge of Hollywood in the 1950s, and actress Eileen Ryan. Though from a young age he had all the makings of first-class pain-in-the-ass, the young Sean studied not politics, but auto mechanics and speech, when he briefly attended Santa Monica College, soon dropping out. With those sterling credentials, the stage was set for Penn’s meteoric rise into celeburoyalty.

Long before he won the best actor Oscar for Mystic River, Penn was cast as a world-famous husband, marrying pop singer Madonna in 1985, herself a fledgling member of the celebutard upper crust. Penn quickly distinguished himself on his wedding day by scrawling “FUCK OFF” in giant letters on the roof of their home in California to thwart photographers riding aboard helicopters, in whose direction he reputedly fired a gun. In 1987, he was jailed for beating a photographer.

The Seandonna union unraveled in spectacular fashion, which was later blamed by the Penn camp on the pop matron’s desperate quest for world domination. I guess there just wasn’t enough room for two extra-large heads in one family. During an argument over breakfast one morning in December 1988, Penn asked Madonna to leave, later telling Rolling Stone, “I made a threat that I would literally cut her hair off. She took it quite seriously” He got that right. Madonna took his words so seriously that she called the cops, and told the authorities that Penn possessed guns. A SWAT team promptly descended on the house, but by this time, Penn was gone.

This led to stories that Penn had tied her up or attacked her with a bat. One version had him force-feeding Madonna dog food. But Penn, who was charged with felony domestic assault, pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor. The couple divorced in 1989, and have spoken nary a discouraging word about the disastrous union since. Clearly, anger-management sessions with an experienced therapist might have benefited Penn greatly. But he took another path.

Some consumers of popular political culture have traced the birth of Penn’s monolithic celebutardistry to his father’s refusal to cooperate with the House Un-American Activities Committee, and subsequent descent into working in television, all of which occurred before his son’s birth. Actually, the elder Penn may have set the tone in the Penn household, but for at least his early years, the budding actor seemed destined for the pampered, cranky, self-absorbed life of a Hollywood twit.

If only he’d stopped there.

–

After decades of navel-gazing, violent outbursts and method acting, Penn’s political idiocy exploded, in all its mind-numbing lunacy, some time after he settled into middle-aged domesticity with actress Robin Wright Penn, with whom he had two children, both born well before they wed in 1996. The couple announced their separation, Hollywood style, to People magazine in December 2007, capping an 11-year marriage that equals centuries in celebrity years. But the Penns turned around months later and reconciled, Penn inartfully dumping the model/professional tsunami survivor Pera Nemcova in the process. Ah – true love!

–

In October 2002 Penn took out a barely coherent, $56,000 ad in the Washington Post that accused President George W. Bush of threatening civil liberties in America and manipulating the media in a rush to war with Iraq.

“I beg you, help save America before yours is a legacy of shame and horror,” Penn wrote. And, “Sacrificing American soldiers or innocent civilians in an unprecedented pre-emptive attack on a separate sovereign nation may well prove itself a most temporary medicine.”

Hanoi Sean was off and running! Jumping with both feet aboard the anti-war bandwagon, already so popular with the cult of celebutardum, Penn upped the ante by not only glorifying the regime of Saddam Hussein, but failing to make any mention of the atrocities committed by his new best friend. Had he not a hint of shame or conscience? Apparently not, because in December 2002 Penn took a three-day tour of Baghdad, where he met with government officials such as bloodthirsty henchman Tariq Aziz, and was photographed in front of giant posters depicting Saddam. With his matching moustache, sunglasses, cigarette and scowl, Penn bore an alarming resemblance to the Iraqi dictator.

At a press conference, he said, “I feel, both as an American and as a human being, the obligation to accept some level of personal accountability for the policies of my government, both those I support and any that I may not. Simply put, if there is a war or continued sanctions against Iraq, the blood of Americans and Iraqis alike will be on our hands.”

However, a month later Penn seemed to have a change of heart. He confessed to Larry King that Saddam had used him as a propaganda tool.

One would think this might spell the end of Penn’s free-lance diplomacy. It was not to be. A year later, in January 2003, Penn was back in Iraq, to check out the nation, post-American invasion. This time he came as a dilettante journalist, with credentials supplied by San Francisco Chronicle editor Phil Bronstein, famed for once having been married to actress Sharon Stone, and for nearly having his toe gnawed off by a Komodo dragon that his then-wife unwisely arranged for him to play with at the Los Angeles Zoo.

Finding an offensive act committed by Sean Penn is like finding an orgasm at a Hollywood orgy.

–

In his long and windy dispatches from Iraq published by the Chronicle upon his return, Penn bemoans the country’s occupation, even while he thanks the troops for saving his behind. “As we race through Fallujah, I take selfish comfort in the sight of black smoke billowing in the aftermath of the recent shelling of a one-story building several hundred yards off the highway, figuring that the closest guerilla fighters might currently be occupied or on the run from U.S. soldiers.” So now, the hated soldiers were Penn’s saviors.

Finding an offensive act committed by Sean Penn is like finding an orgasm at a Hollywood orgy. There are just so many, and some aren’t even fake. In August 2005 he flew to that other spoke in the axis of evil, Iran. Attending a Friday night prayer service, Penn heard 10,000 people shouting, in unison, “Death to Israel!’’ and “Death to America!’’ Did he finally get the fact that they hate us?

“It has always been clear from the Iranian point of view that the call is related to American foreign policy and does not intend to target American people,’’ he wrote in the Chronicle. “Many do not subscribe to a literal interpretation of the call for “Death to Israel’’ and “Death to America.’’

He did not stop there. “Where had Iran’s traumatic experience with American power begun?’’ Like a rape victim who blames herself for being attacked, Penn blamed America for the disturbing display.

Some of his antics resulted in slapstick, such as the time Penn turned his sights on saving his own country. In an effort to show up the administration for not doing enough for victims of hurricane Katrina, Penn, in a white flak jacket and surrounded by a large entourage that included his personal photographer, hopped into a boat on the flooded New Orleans streets, and sailed to the rescue. Or not.

Arriving, late into the disaster, Penn evidently forgot to plug a hole in the boat’s bottom. In seconds, the vessel filled with water, reported the Sun-Herald of Melbourne, Australia. This led the actor to grab a red, plastic cup and frantically bail. Then, the craft’s motor failed to start, forcing the occupants to swat the water with paddles. Seeing the boat loaded with cronies and equipment, one bystander taunted, “how are you going to get any people in that thing?”

This near-debacle was followed by a photograph that showed Penn patrolling New Orleans, carrying a shotgun. It wasn’t his!, his flack insisted, not quite able to explain why Sean felt the need to pick up a random gun. Some rescuees were nonetheless excited to be saved by a bona fide Hollywood star.

–

Penn beat out a crowded field competing for the celebutard crown in August 2007, when he visited Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.

–

“Guess who come and got me out of the house?” Johnnie Brown, 73, said over the phone to his siter. “Sean Penn the actor! The boys were really nice.” Later, Penn was furious that his rescue efforts were widely ridiculed as publicity stunt.

Penn beat out a crowded field competing for the celebutard crown in August 2007, when he visited Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. The like-minded monster called President Bush “the devil” on the floor of the United Nations a year before, and suggested moving the United Nations to Jerusalem. On Christmas Eve 2006, Chavez angered Jews all over the world when he said, “Some minorities, descendants of the same ones who crucified Christ .€.€. took all the world’s wealth for themselves.” This must have thrilled Penn’s Jewish family on his father’s side.

Chavez courted Penn, praising him for his open letter to the White House, in which he described Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice “criminally obscene people.”

“I found him a very fascinating guy,” Penn told David Letterman. “He’s done incredible things for the 80 percent of the people who are poor there.” Not a word about Venezuela’s human rights abuses. Or Chavez’s squelching the freedom of the press. In fact, Penn excused the shutting down of a TV station, saying it had called for Chavez’s assassination “so he just did not re-up their license.’’

I began wondering if Sean Penn, who has the means and stupidity to cavort with tyrants bent on destroying this country, could be tried for treason. But I learned that a charge of treason, while a tantalizing notion, is not an option, since we are not presently at war with Venezuela or Iran and Saddam Hussein is long gone. Besides, this country, with all its warts, is far more tolerant of those who rail against it, and quite a bit more protective of those who would do it harm, than any of the tin pot dictators that Penn so admires.

The only recourse the public has against this captain of the celebutards is simply to refuse to see his films.

Zero's latest Outrage

Zero's Pork Package gives Billions to ACORN. (Yes, that's with a "B")

So, taxpayers will fund the radical Left-wing "community organizing", gangster intimidation tactics, and voter fraud designed to undermine the democratic process that guarantees government by the people—and install a permanent Leftist totalitarian government.

Nice. Less that a week in office, and he's hard at work destroying American institutions.

The new "President" feels free to change our form of government, sell out our freedom, cheat us of our "one man one vote" democracy, and condemn future generations to serfdom under cover of "emergency" and "crisis".

There is simply no bottom to the abyss of Carnage-to-America in Zero's plans. Every time I think I'm at maximum outrage...he goes a step further.

Is he purposely provoking a civil war?

Test of Character

Republican Senator David Vitter on Zero's Pork Package:

"It's just a long list of spending items. Not a real economic stimulus job creation bill," It's line after line after line of favorite liberal spending programs, and it amounts to a big government bill -- not a job creation bill."

Well, we're going to see just how stupid Congressional Republicans are. Today. Right now.

Zero is meeting with them to get them on board with his "stimulus" package. He and the Democrats need the Republicans for cover. When the shit hits the fan, when it's proved that this "stimulus" package made things much, much worse, he can, once again, evade responsibility for it, by claiming it was "bi-partisan".

"Not my fault. The Republicans supported it too". And he'll be right. And the Republicans won't have a leg to stand on.

I'm a graphic designer in California. I understand this. I get the strategy. I see the danger, I see the future.

Do Republican "leaders"? If they roll over on this, they are finished. And so are we. If they support this, they will defend it. For their egos, for their careers. We will have absolutely no representation in government. We will be entirely disenfranchised.

If Republican "leaders" surrender on this Pork Landslide, they are finished. Without a single principle among them that differentiates them from the Democrats, why in the world should anyone vote for them? Democrats won't because they'll take the real thing. Republicans won't because their principles will not allow it.

If Republican "leaders" cooperate with Zero on this Soviet tsunami, it will take a miracle, a generation, and their own "Messiah" to save them from the extinction they will so richly deserve.

This is their moment. To find out how they'll react under fire. To find out whether they're courageous or cowards. Whether they're winners or losers. Whether they value principles or power.

I pray they make the right choice. Because if they don't, they will have sold their souls to Zero, and made the man their master.

I've only been a Republican since 9-11. And I associate becoming one with patriotism, clarity of political thought and conservatism. And I'd hate to turn my back on those associations. But if the Republican "leaders" take the Obama road to Perdition, I will have to officially leave the party.

Reading the list of outrages being committed by Zero and the Dems on every website and in every column is a lot like listening to the same record over and over until your ears bleed, and knowing that no matter how many times you hear it, it will never change, it will never get better, because it's discordant, out of time, flat, inharmonious, an assault to the ears, a crime against music.

Continuing to listen to it really becomes a waste of time. The music won't change, and nothing the critics say will change the grooves in the vinyl.

Let's just agree that everyone Zero and the Dems chooses is dirty, and that everything he proposes is anti-American. I think that's a safe bet, and we can spend our time doing something productive—like planning the Revolution.

The Price of "Winning"

A couple more points on Rich Moran's post at American Thinker...link in previous post. He ends his post saying that "tactically" because there are so few Republicans in Congress, being reasonable instead of confrontational is the only way to get anything done.

Given the nature of the Democrats (sleazy liars, cheats, thugs and thieves, as I've noted before), one can hardly expect that by being reasonable, one will get anything done that the bullies don't want done. The only way the little kid evades a beating at the hands of the bully is to do whatever the bully wants.

The only way the little kid ever wins...is to man up and bloody the bully.

This is true whether in the playground, the halls of Congress, or on the campaign trail.

You hear Republicans (and more than a few Democrats...surprise!) declare that Republicans must field more "moderates" if they want to "get elected".

But what is a "moderate" Republican? A Liberal. Someone who will work against the advancement of Conservatism. But if that's what you get, mightn't you just as well have voted for the Democrat and not gone to all the trouble and expense of running anyone at all?

I mean, what's the point?

Some Republicans treat the Party like a gang. It's the "colors" that matter. How they act, what they do, what they believe in, is irrelevant, as long as they're wearing the right patch.

But the point of supporting a party, for Conservatives, is that the members, when elected, will work hard, loyally and tirelessly to advance Conservative principles. We're not interested in the patch without the principles.

And that's what Rick Moran, and his brothers in political punditry fail to grasp. Every time I hear someone suggesting this strategy to Republicans to "get elected" or "get something done", I realize he has no principle he won't compromise or abandon.

What a sad shame.

Separation and Secession

I don't think we can afford to leave all those other red states out of it. We need an updated alignment of Constitutionalists that are prepared to stand firm for American Principles, and, if required, do what is necessary to preserve them.

The way things are going, I'm not sure the United States of America, as currently constituted will be able to return to our roots and to the great ideals upon which this nation was founded. We have wandered so far, and our leaders are rushing to perdition, dragging all of us with them.

We may have to do what has been considered the unthinkable in order to reclaim our patrimony.

More to come.
