Le Colonel Neville s’habille Tojours Pour le Diner. Semper Fi. Thomas Sowell: "There are three questions that I think would destroy most of the arguments on the left. The first is compared to what? The second is at what cost and the third is what hard evidence do you have?” Live free or die or both. Satirical empirical conservative. No, really.
Klavan via pjstv: “You see, college grads, conservatives are not really mean, or greedy or racist. They just want you to keep your liberty. You haven’t been taught about liberty. But it’s that big scary American thing your forefathers fought and died for.
I know...Liberty is harder than slavery. It’s full of risk and uneven outcomes. It requires you to stand on your own and suffer the consequences of your own choices. But in the end, it’s the only way of life worth living. The only way that you might one day graduate from academic fantasies of a state run Utopia and grow to be men and women, instead of sheep.”
Hey, I better get it together! Dear sports, I love all these guys. What do we have here in Australia? An MSM made almost entirely of Kraft cheese. Dig.
Jamaica is a crime ridden dysfunctional and virtual failed black state, barely held together by the threadbare remnants of British Rule of Law. Being black in the developing, third and devolving worlds, often means being forced to endure various kinds of socialist experiments as each one inevitably rushes down the plug hole of despair in a virtually identical fashion. Only the body counts differ in order to protect the viciously guilty. Ah, and all so eagerly championed by affluent Western leftards from afar. VERY afar. Like Bel Air.
In 1972, Marxist scumbag, economic moron and Jamaican Prime Minister Michael Manley, said that socialism was the correct path for Jamaica. Er, riiight. Yeah, if you want your tropical island to collapse into a permanent madhouse pile of crime infested, dysfunctional and bankrupt shit. Gee, where are all the left liberal protest movements screaming to free Jamaica from the oppression of socialist hell and an avalanche of crime and corruption? Not fashionable but problematic eh? Got it. Nuance. Come on! "BushisHitler!" No? Doesn't help? "ObamaisHitler!" There ya go...Everything is fixed. Easy, eh?
Jamaica Farewell by Erving Burgess.
"Down the way where the nights are gay And the sun shines daily on the mountain top I took a trip on a sailing ship And when I reached Jamaica I made a stop
But I'm sad to say, I'm on my way Won't be back for many a day My heart is down, my head is turning around I had to leave a little girl in Kingston town
Sounds of laughter everywhere And the dancing girls swaying to and fro I must declare that my heart is there Though I've been from Maine to Mexico
Down at the market you can hear Ladies cry out while on their head they bear Ackie rice and salt fish is nice And the rum is good any time of year."
Jamaican Welfare.
"Down the trench town they murder gays And the scum kill daily on a garbage top I took a trip on a failed blip And when I retched “Jamaica!” I couldn’t stop
But I’m glad to say, I’m on my way Won’t be back on any damn day The house burnt down, the dead are all on the ground You can buy a little girl in Kingston Town
Sounds of gunfire everywhere And the starving children crying day and night I must declare that Michael Manley’s there Though I've been in a drain in Mexico
Down at the cesspool you can hear Ladies cry out while for the dead they care AK vice socialist ain’t nice And nothing is good any time of year."
The wonderful anti-capitalist non-democracy disaster of Jamaica.
Killer cops in the heart of darkness tribal maelstrom called Jamaica.
Now here’s a little exposed and terrifying paradigm. Jamaica is a cesspool of endemic cultural violence and the society wide hatred and murder of gay people. And as I said, this rotten insanity is supported and incited by Jamaican musicians, many in the general populace, the Police, the government and the Prime Minister! No really. Good God almighty.
Gee, I wonder if there’s any connection with the massive Jamaican crime rates in Britain and Europe? Thinks... Ted Brown was the only openly gay man in Jamaica ever[!], and he headed a much needed gay rights group. He was hideously stabbed to death by three black men. The police did nothing. In fact, the Police often assist with the oppression and homicide of gays! I kid you not.
Golly, but Jamaica is so sunny and black reggae fans are supposed to be so cool and virtually by default? Nope. Balls. 2,000 average Jamaican laughter cadets, chased three suspected gay men into a pharmacy and demanded they come out to be lynched. Er, not today. Come back Thursday when we have automatic weapons and better shoes. The cheery Police escorted the three men out... For once.
They were probably suspected of being gay because they had all their own front teeth and their socks matched, PLUS they had shoes.
Now you know why the Carribean lacks a certain subtle sense of taste and style. Or did they just go for a perverse gay-hating Gay Mardi Gras motif? Go figure.
Now unfortunately toward the end, the interviewer does tend to draw a bit of the required PC moral equivalence bow. It also looks like for all the very good intentions, Jamaica may just add some repellent Western style radical and nihilist gay groups to their mix of How to Fail Utterly: while trying everything but what works. Fabulous!
Now here’s a thing. The very talented Bob Marley loved the incompetent Socialist despot and leftard political pet Michael Manley, as per most Western pop stars with their rich idiot love of Utopian fantasies.
Bob’s motto:“I can’t buy a BMW with socialism! So I’ll just posture and spout how everyone in Jamaica needs Marxism...but me.“
But then, Bob was so addled with romantic third-world collective junk, that he thought leaving his toe untreated by the white mans sorcery, so that it becomes cancerous and kills him was er, Rasta fah I. Ya Dad was white, Bob. Which reminds me of someone...
And funny innit, how as Marley became more fashionably dreadlocked, Bob's English speaking ability changed from standard virtual first language, to an unintelligible patois murk that needed subtitles. He once said on the gapingly mediocre 60 Minutes, that “BMW stands for Bob Marley and the Wailers!” Or Bob’s Marxist Wank. Or Be More Water boarded. Or Buy My Wahini.
Hey, we're a continent here in Australia. Now if we just adopt Socialist junk as PM Krudd wrote in his absurd essay in The Monthly, [odd the menstrual connection] it'd be even better than Jamaica! Gotta be. Let's give it a go! What can we lose but everything and forever? Well, Rudd can afford to embrace the collective cos his wife has already made 25 million dollars out of capitalism.
Ah, red sales in the sunset.
Jamaican Mafia and the delightful ghettoes. “The sound I remember most is the children crying and whimpering...”
Yes, if FDR who was a pretty incompetent Socialist fellow traveller boob in many ways, [and massively naive specially regards Stalin too] had shown techniques used by the allies to extract vital information from captured German officers and spies etc, to the enemy during WWll, well he wouldn't have. He would've been arrested. But go on Barry, according to you we're not at war! Sadly, Islam lost the telegram and is thus waging a 1300 year old global war of aggression against most everyone, and has declared this asymmetrical jihad a million times in a thousand ways, you wilfully deaf bastard.
Now dig this. The Islamic world has spent 13 centuries invading, murdering and subjugating millions and millions of people of every kind. Virtually every Islamic group, state and dictator has declared or supports covertly and or overtly an eternal war on the free West, America and most of the world in word and millions of relentless actions including kidnappings, hijackings, torturing, beheading, bombing and murdering thousands of Americans and thousnads of others. And while the Muslim world is hoping to destroy Israel etc, the developing world's economic uber-thief George Soros backed Obama, the narcissist teenage Marxist activist said this, and may God help us all:
“The United States is not and will never be at war with Islam. We will convey our deep appreciation for the Islamic faith which has done so much over the centuries to shape the world, including in my own country...” Barack Hussein Obama.
Name a single positive serious Islamic contribution or innovation in the world today, in America or down the local shop. A recent one. An old one. By an actual documented Muslim. Not a stolen and vampired one. One that the West enjoys right now. Above fraud and murder, there are exactly none.
Here’s crossroads on the Saul Alinsky Method of brain laundry, of which Obama is a student and a teacher.
“I said no starch in my hammer and sickle shorts!”
The great and indispensible zombietime presents the lounge room host of Obama’s political career launching, and conspiracy to murder addict Bill Ayers, and his conveniently forgotten Marxist radical scumbag manifesto. Take it away Bill, you dirty lying parasite.
Mike Savage on the simple stark fact that Obama, the pal and consorter of known and convicted criminals, could NOT pass the character test for an FBI agent. Mike discusses this diplomatically to a simple-minded logical fallacy afflicted leftard teacher.
Cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha, cha Cheney bomb! Cheney hits his press conference with more than buckshot! The Chain scores a real world empirical bullseye.
“His words are a very fantastical banquet.” Shakespeare’s line in Much Ado About Nothing may describe the grandiloquent Democratic presidential candidate.
“Fantastical,” however, does not fit David Freddoso’s spare and sober unveiling of the man behind the rhetoric. At a time when the front tables of stores like Barnes and Noble are piled up with strident screeds by liberals against the menace of the conservative right (and vice versa), Freddoso is like a matter-of-fact prosecutor building a solid case against a defendant. The book is a thoroughly researched and footnoted dissection of Obama."
[Here's black conservative Larry Elder at humanevents on Obama too.]
My edit of just a tiny paert of an enormous, detailed, referenced timeline of the beyond belief radical cesspool trajectory of The One: Barry Hussein Sotoero Barack Obama. Enjoy the horror if you can and think of it as massive view of the evil collectivist machinery behind the Wizards curtain.
“In 1960, Dunham emphasized her free spirit with a statement to her high school friends that, “I don’t need to date or marry to have children.” Teacher Wichterman later recalled that Dunham would question anything, asking,
“What’s so good about democracy? What’s so good about capitalism? What’s wrong with communism? What’s good about communism?”
Her best friend in high school, Maxine Box, said Dunham “...touted herself as an atheist, and it was something she’d read about and could argue. She was always challenging and arguing and comparing.” [408, 612, 2289
“Knowing of her sexual reputation, Obama, Sr. supposedly told Dunham, “It’s not mine” when, in December of 1960, she informed him that she was pregnant. Obama, Sr.’s classmates knew he had a wife and children in Africa, but it has to be assumed that Dunham initially did not. She may have quickly found out, however, because Dunham left Obama, Sr. within a few weeks of her son’s birth. [564, 2287]
Dunham’s acquaintances recall that they often had difficulties knowing when she was telling the truth. One remarked, “She would make you believe anything while you were face-to-face but, a few minutes after she’d leave, you’d realize what she said wasn’t very… realistic or true,” explained one. Another friend recalls joining Dunham for dinner with her parents. Dunham tells an incredible story about a car accident. Her mother, knowing the tale was fabricated, lets her finish… and then states, “That never happened.” [564]
Obama, Sr. eventually has at least eight children with four women. (Two of those children are borne by his ex-wife Kezia while Obama, Sr. is still married to Nidesand.)
In Seattle, Ann Dunham attended Eckstein Middle School. The family then moved to Mercer Island in 1956 so she could attend Mercer Island High School. The Mercer Island School Board was led by John Stenhouse (a British immigrant raised in China), who, according to his testimony to the House Committee on Un-American Activities, was a member of the Communist Party USA. Dunham’s teachers included communists Jim Wichterman, whose assignments included the reading of The Communist Manifesto.
The hallway between Wichterman’s class and that of another teacher, Val Foubert, whose reading assignments included Margaret Mead’s writings on homosexuality, was known as “anarchy alley.” (Foubert also had his students read Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged, the monumental pro-individual, pro-liberty, anti-collectivist novel that, if she read, Dunham clearly did not understand and which certainly was not allowed to influence her son’s view of the world.) Dunham graduated from high school in 1960. Dunham also attended the East Shore Unitarian Church in Bellevue (of which communist Stenhouse was president), which was known as the “little Red church on the hill” because of its communist leanings.
According to the University of Washington (UW), Dunham was enrolled at UW in the fall of 1961 (just weeks after giving birth), the spring of 1962, and the winter of 1962. The Obama campaign places Dunham only in Hawaii until she later moves to Indonesia with Lolo Soetoro, and omits any reference to her attending UW.
These university dates indicate that Ann Dunham was not even living with Barack Obama, Sr., because she attended UW while he remained at UH. He spent virtually no time with his newborn son or with Dunham. She attended school in Washington while her mother, Madelyn, took care of her newborn son in Hawaii. Dunham, who had told her friends “I don’t need to date or marry to have children,” apparently also believed she didn’t even need to care for a child to have children. [408
1961–1966 Hawaii.
Barack Obama Jr. is born on August 4, 1961 to Stanley Ann Dunham (1942–1995). Ann Dunham (who understandably dropped her first name Stanley, given to her because her father wanted a male child) had married Obama’s father, Barack Obama, Sr. (1936–1982), on February 2, 1961. Obama, Sr., a pro-Soviet Marxist, was a Kenyan studying at the University of Hawaii. Dunham met him in a Russian language class in the fall of 1960, as he was starting his second year at the university and she was beginning her first. Obama, Sr., an Arab-African Muslim by birth, but an atheist by admission, already had two children with a woman in Kenya named Kezia (b. 1938).
The senior Obama may or may not have been legally married to Kezia. Some have speculated that their marriage was only a tribal marriage, and therefore not legally recognized. Depending on his marital status in Kenya, Obama’s marriage to Dunham may not therefore have been legal. (Obama and Kezia eventually reunite after he separates from Ann Dunham, and Kezia bears two more of his children.)
After learning of the planned wedding to Dunham, Obama, Sr.’s father writes a long, angry letter to her parents saying he “didn’t approve of the marriage” and “didn’t want the Obama blood sullied by a white woman.” [1, 3, 7, 289, 299, 324, 2287, 2292, 2293]
Barack Obama, Sr.’s Hawaiian education was sponsored partly by the Laubach Literacy Institute (LLI), which has links to the Nation of Islam, and which considers a socialist world without national borders one of its goals.
A financial supporter of the LLI was Elizabeth Mooney Kirk, who co-authored books with its founder, Charles Laubach. Kirk was also a friend of civil rights activist and black nationalist Malcolm X (Malcolm Little). It is possible that Malcolm X met Obama, Sr. during a 1959 visit to the Secretary General of the Kenya Federation of Labour, prominent Kenyan politician Tom Mboya, because Mboya and Obama were close friends. [408]
Obama Sr. was able to attend the University of Hawaii also through the efforts of Mboya, who visited the United States in 1959 to obtain financial support for the American education of 81 Kenyan students. Presidential candidate Obama was incorrect in relating that his father was part of the “Kennedy airlift” of Kenyan students; John F. Kennedy was not sworn in as president until January of 1961, when Obama, Sr. was already in his second year at the University of Hawaii. Obama’s “JFK helped my father” story was likely intended to attach some of the Kennedy mystique to his candidacy. [561]
In 1965, Obama’s father writes an article for the East Africa Journal called “Problems Facing Our Socialism,” in which he criticizes Kenya for not being socialist enough. He writes, “Theoretically, there is nothing that can stop the government from taxing 100 per cent of income so long as the people get benefits from the government commensurate with their income which is taxed.” Obama, Jr. has so far suggested a maximum federal income tax rate of “only” 39.6 per cent (not counting Social Security and Medicare taxes).
Obama, Sr. advocated the elimination of private farming in Kenya, the nationalization of businesses, and high taxes on the wealthy for “redistribution.”
(Obama, Jr., with the eager assistance of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, may very well end up attempting to nationalize America’s banks and its auto, oil, and utility industries.) [271, 1008]
In his second book (his campaign book, The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream) Obama clearly states that, like his father, he is also no great fan of the American system of free enterprise capitalism. He describes capitalism as “chaotic and unforgiving,” and says he has a desire to roll back the “ownership society.” [271]
Obama states he was born in Honolulu, Hawaii. If that is the case, he was then both an American citizen and a British citizen at birth because his father was a citizen of the protectorate of British East Africa. Because the region had, in 1961, not yet declared its independence from Great Britain, Obama was, like his father, a British citizen under Section 32(1) of the British Nationality Act of 1948. Both Obama, Sr. and Obama, Jr. then automatically became citizens of Kenya when that independent nation was formed in 1963.
Obama’s British/Kenyan citizenship automatically expired when he turned age 21, but he was born with dual citizenship and split loyalties, and thus was arguably not a natural born citizen of the United States. [219, 258, 492, 549]”

Via jihadwatch is Memorial Day. Everything we have we owe to the men and women of our military and don't you forget it:
Memorial Day. Name the enemy.
“Today is a rather unusual Memorial Day, in that as we remember those who have fallen to preserve the American Republic, the new President is proceeding for the most part according to the assumption that conflicts never need to be solved with wars. All we need to do is understand each other a little better, show the opposition a willingness to give, to compromise, build a few schools, teach our children not to hate, show some respect, and antagonisms and furious hatred will melt away, and all manner of thing will be well.
Unfortunately, sometimes an antagonist may understand his enemy quite well, and receive his largesse, and note his respect, and yet still want to kill or subjugate him for reasons of one's own -- reasons that don't proceed from the Kumbaya-singer's actions at all.
Barack Obama has never shown any sign of having considered this possibility. And he is by no means alone in his apparently unshakable conviction that all conflicts can be solved through negotiated concessions. This is so much a part of the air they breathe in Washington and in all the other capitals of the West that it would be unthinkable even to question it. It isn't even a matter of daring -- no one would ever even get the idea to ask, "What if we offer the opposition everything they have ever demanded and more, and implement state-of-the-art aid and infrastructure packages, and conform to all their foreign policy and cultural demands, and they still hate us?"
They would regard this is an impossibility. The Muslim on the international stage -- be he Ahmadinejad, or Khaled Meshaal, or Abu Qatadah, or any other -- is as far as Obama and the rest are concerned just a reactor, not an actor. He has no power to act apart from the West. He just reacts to what we do. He is, ultimately, at our mercy, and it is up to us and us alone to pacify him. Could he hate us for reasons that are quite independent of what we may be doing or not doing to him? Inconceivable!”
“There is a deep disconnect between the religious beliefs of most black Americans and how they vote. From a mid-2008 article in Newsweek, The more religiously active an American is, the more likely he is to vote Republican--unless he's black. That fact emerged in the second part of a Pew Forum study on the landscape of religious life in the United States, released this June."
Home schooling is the empirical way to raise children into adults who are not neurotic drones infected and indoctrinated with with a strain of virulent leftardism.
"Many adults that have had the pleasure of meeting Dakota have made the comment, "Is your daughter home-schooled?" I always answer, "Yes, but how did you know?" The reply is always the same, "In my experience, only home-schooled kids are this focused, disciplined, well-mannered and respectful of adults."
“What kind of Government would ban his entry on the grounds that opponents were threatening violence? Only a Government happy to ban speech it disapproved of and safe in the knowledge that the Media Class and its activists in the Unions and public services would be pleased. This is how democracy in the UK is being lost. Red Jacqui and her Party, indeed all the major UK Parties and most minor ones have a vested interest in ending free speech for they all seek the approval of the Maintream Media (MSM)."

Via the hardest working blogster in show business, the superb Binks via Steynian on the bullshit of endless dialogue crap:
“The Evil Dialogue™:
DIALOGUE™ in the non Greek philosopher sense– is a Marxist technique for blunting and overcoming opposition. It was used to very great effect in subverting the real religion of the Anglican Church of Canada– now the United Church in robes. Take any two positions: say, for boiling babies and not boiling babies, let all sides chat away, share feelings, offer perspectives, include the social justice (i.e. Marxist) analysis, and agree sooner or later to to whatever the management already planned to do anyway, but after the feel-good and exasperating waste of time of dialogue™.
In a remarkable bit of strategy and tactics, the militant Muslims have grabbed this bit of useful politically correct talk-weaponry, and used it to dialogue™ Christians and Jews, as if there was any comparison between the religions, or meaningful common-ground between Jihad and the Judeo-Christian West. But it makes inroads, and makes wobbly Western liberals and ‘moderitz’ feel all warm and fuzzy, and more prone to defending Islam and railing against Islamophobia, because they met some nice Muslims once who wanted to dialogue™. They must be fine, liberal people.
The modern notion of Dialogue™ presumes utter human innocence and motive, the equality of all views whatsoever, and the usefulness of the exercise. That is; it’s a profoundly dishonest, unrealistic, and easily manipulated technique which gives most of the power and advantage to the bad guys, and the power-brokers. Oppose dialogue? You’re a meanie; afraid; reactionary; the usual slanders.
The gentlemanly Sir Neville Chamberlain was in unknowingly a Dialogue™ with Herr Hitler. The British PM was, of course, dealing with an evil man with evil plans and a nation and people ready to make them real.
Now Obama has the notion of dialoguing with Jihadist Islam. You’ve been warned.”
Celebrating multicultural diversity and tolerance presents! Via islaminaction:
You’ve probably seen it before but not in the MSM or with popcorn. I can hardly stand to watch it myself. It is a gut turner and an anger management test. As folks like us know very well, this is just one of the many terrifying videos on overt Islamisation in Britain and elsewhere that now number in the hundreds of thousands. This is not isolated. It’s EVERYWHERE in the West that has Muslim immigration. Why do we need these dangerous criminals again? The rugs?
In this cheery little vid, the mob of Muslim laughter cadets do as they please to spread Islam and the UNARMED British PC Police simply run away...
This is what the British authorities have reduced the once respected British Bobby to. Imagine American hardcore serious Police professionals running like a rabble? It wouldn't get to this...or would it? Oh yeah, the Police do let Muslims parade and threaten to their black hearts content in major US cities like New York etc. I forgot. Here in Australia too.
It's easy to tell when an alleged "protester" is guilty of criminal sedition...It's when they relentlessly call for the destruction of the state. Yes, I believe so.
Note the clueless apparent leftard fellow traveller in the orange vest who seems genuinely surprised that Muslim males are gee, dangerous and violent. This is law enforcement? A disgrace. And it goes on and on and bloody on...Where the hell is the senior leadership? NEVER run in a chaotic mob and with your back to the enemy.
The goal is to close ranks and take those Muslim loons down one by one, but no. Instead let’s show them you’re easy to destroy! That’ll work out. Note the one lone Muslim guy that tries to appease his fellow members of the Islamic Ummah to no avail [for now]. Gee, not much support for mythical “moderate” Muslims by the law on the ground, eh? Nope, you’re on your own, bub.
I tell you this, when Muslim psychopaths spread the joy of Islam across YOUR suburb, the Police WILL NOT COME. They won't be able to. I have witnessed the phenomena of the invisible Police officers. You can wait all night and all of the next day and night. So good night and good luck.
We can either deport these hot for jihad filth to the open sea or an island, or spend money on prosecuting them and either nothing happens, or they get to spread jihad in jail with all equipment supplied by our government! No really...
In a time of war, hang them for sedition and treason. You be the hanging judge. "This is a war" says one Muslim creep among many other delights. And he's right. Our spineless government's are simply too PC to declare it. Muslims don't have the same inhibition's, and thus they have a tactical and strategic advantage in their asymmetrical global jihad war of aggression.
Either way, the West will have to deal decisively with Muslim insurrection eventually. The alternative is our oppression, dishonour and death. And boy, the left and mainstream will help at our own downfall and execution, and theirs too.

The Marxist lovin' psychopaths of the left actually do want total control of your children.

The ex-Labour Helen Cox is on the vid too. Dig the black principal who says the U,S has a bomb to kill only black people. He does not allow police into the school. Later he says to police he has to “kill” to get justice. A freakishly arrogant black parasite woman demands yams at school for her “African son”, so he does not have to eat “so called” British food.

Ah, the enemy’s of the people list. Excellent. Ah, yes. GOOD KIDS equal vegetarian kids. Like Hitler the vegetarian. I wouldn’t let you anywhere near my children. Toodle ooh."
And yowzer, local unqualified leftard activist Jason Kimberly from the appallingly incompetent and juvenile coolmelbourne org, can promote his unqualified GW bunk in schools. Kim is an affluent son of the Just Jeans empire people. Thus he's a apparently a bog standard hippiecrite anti-capitalist! Well, he can afford to play at fashionable radical, eh? Why are so many radical twerps well-off? We all know why. It's just too uncool otherwise.
Well, Kimbo is lecturing to primary school children en masse so they say, including yours and mine. As the nice but er, laughably out of depth, incurious, sadly soft leftie principal and most staff have made very clear, this is good, and there's not a damn thing I can do about it. Yeah, radical geeks George Marshall and George Monbiot are featured on the site as you do, plus Jon Stewart is screaming "Fuuuuuuuck!" Perfect for six to twelve year-olds. Er, no.
My son's Principal Boop:“If you don’t like it you can find another school,” and “You could write a letter to The Age!” Hey, that must tie in with the triple underlined notice that said they “genuinely want feedback” from parents. “Yes, we all agree.” Great feedback! But then I do live in the inner-city, the center of clueless boobville.

More of the endless, relentless Quality Control free avalanche of stupid dumb ass phony rubbish, promoted to children about the junk pseudo-science of GW.
“Picture this: It’s late at night. You’re asleep in bed, with lots of blankets covering you. Suddenly, you wake up all hot and sweaty, so you kick off the covers.
Cool air hits your lets. Much better. You fall back to sleep and wake up refreshed, ready for school. Now picture the earth. Certain gases that have been collecting in the atmosphere for the past 100 years are creating a heavy blanket around the Earth. Heat from the sun gets trapped under the blanket and the Earth begins to feel too hot. But the Earth can’t just kick off that cover to cool down. This is global warming.
The Down-to-Earth Guide to Global Warming takes a look at the issue of global warming and strips away the fancy language to make the information accessible to children. The Down-to-Earth Guide to Global Warming is indeed that. Down-to-earth in both the practical sense and the idea that we need to change behaviours to keep the Earth’s temperature from rising with all the attendant consequences.”
The money quote is "...we need to change behaviors." Change your fucking own behavior, you dirty child abusing creeps. This is the natural control freakery of leftism in a nuts hell. Conservative principles are the exact opposite. They are respect for life, respect for The Constitution, limited government and low tax and personal responsibility and that is all. Go figure.
Chuck on GW. Via libertyfilmfestival. Hey, liberal as in a Jimmy Stewart character liberal used to mean this: “Liberal, adjective: open to new behavior or opinions; respectful of individual rights and freedoms.” No longer. These are conservative or libertarian things. Go figure. But then, being a Marxist product sodden phony is not very maturing, is it? Charlton Heston was ALWAYS an adult, thus he was hated by the irrational forever children of the left in their dissonant and permanent control-freak perma-tantrum. Originally Chuck was a Democrat for good reasons, and then left them to become a Republican for very good reasons.
Here's the late great Chuck Heston on The Second Amendment, which along with the First Amendment, is all that stands between liberty and tyranny. Link to Mark Levin's book of the same name.
Chuck watches the smiley virus of Marxist hippie death in The Omega Man. What have they become today? Leftard zombies! In The Omega Man, Chuck is the first star to do an inter-racial love scene. But then Chuck marched with Sidney Poitier and Dr King in 1963, long before it was fashionable and a great career move to have a conscience. Now in Hollywood, you need no real conscience at all: just the fake posturing, and usually for the bankrupt and pure evil.

Hey, someone wonderful has finally loaded the entire Omega Man! Dig the very good cheese as Chuck burns up the scenery. "If I could just find the nest!...MATHIAS!...They're barbarians..They'll be waking up soon!" Neville hunting Mathias, the Ward Churchill impressionist.
"I remember my son when he was five, explaining to his kindergarten class what his father did for a living. "My Daddy," he said, "pretends to be people." There have been quite a few of them. Prophets from the Old and New Testaments, a couple of Christian saints, generals of various nationalities and different centuries, several kings, three American presidents, a French cardinal and two geniuses, including Michelangelo. If you want the ceiling re-painted I'll do my best. There always seem to be a lot of different fellows up here. I'm never sure which one of them gets to talk. Right now, I guess I'm the guy.
As I pondered our visit tonight it struck me: if my Creator gave me the gift to connect you with the hearts and minds of those great men, then I want to use that same gift now to re-connect you with your own sense of liberty, your own freedom of thought, your own compass for what is right. Dedicating the memorial at Gettysburg, Abraham Lincoln said of America, "We are now engaged in a great Civil War, testing whether that nation or any nation so conceived and so dedicated can long endure."
Those words are true again. I believe that we are again engaged in a great civil war, a cultural war that's about to hijack your birthright to think and say what lives in your heart. I'm sure you no longer trust the pulsing lifeblood of liberty inside you, the stuff that made this country rise from wilderness into the miracle that it is. Let me back up a little. About a year or two ago, I became president of the National Rifle Association, which protects the right to keep and bear arms of American citizens. I ran for office. I was elected, and now I serve. I serve as a moving target for the media who've called me everything from "ridiculous" and "duped" to a "brain-injured, senile, crazy old man." I know, I'm pretty old, but I sure Lord ain't senile.
As I've stood in the cross-hairs of those who target Second Amendment freedoms, I've realized that firearms are -- are not the only issue. No, it's much, much bigger than that. I've come to understand that a cultural war is raging across our land, in which, with Orwellian fervor, certain accepted thoughts and speech are mandated. For example, I marched for civil rights with Dr. King in 1963 -- and long before Hollywood found it acceptable, I may say. But when I told an audience last year that white pride is just as valid as black pride or red pride or anyone else's pride, they called me a racist.
I've worked with brilliantly talented homosexuals all my life -- throughout my whole career. But when I told an audience that gay rights should extend no further than your rights or my rights, I was called a homophobe. I served in World War II against the Axis powers. But during a speech, when I drew an analogy between singling out the innocent Jews and singling out innocent gun owners, I was called an anti-Semite. Everyone I know knows I would never raise a closed fist against my country. But when I asked an audience to oppose this cultural persecution I'm talking about, I was compared to Timothy McVeigh.
From Time magazine to friends and colleagues, they're essentially saying, "Chuck, how dare you speak your mind like that. You are using language not authorized for public consumption." But I am not afraid. If Americans believed in political correctness, we'd still be King George's boys -- subjects bound to the British crown. In his book, "The End of Sanity," Martin Gross writes that
"blatantly irrational behavior is rapidly being established as the norm in almost every area of human endeavor. There seem to be new customs, new rules, new anti-intellectual theories regularly twisted on us -- foisted on us from every direction. Underneath, the nation is roiling. Americans know something without a name is undermining the country, turning the mind mushy when it comes to separating truth from falsehood and right from wrong. And they don't like it."
Let me read you a few examples. At Antioch College in Ohio, young men speaking and seeking intimacy with a coed must get verbal permission at each step of the process, from kissing to petting to final, at last, copulation -- all clearly spelled out in a printed college directive. In New Jersey, despite the death of several patients nationwide who'd been infected by dentists who had concealed their own AIDS, the state commissioner announced that health providers who are HIV-positive need not -- need not! -- tell their patients that they are infected. At William and Mary, students tried to change the name of the school team "The Tribe" because it was supposedly insulting to local Indians, only to learn that authentic Virginia chiefs really like the name, "The Tribe."
In San Francisco, city fathers passed an ordinance protecting the rights of transvestites to cross-dress on the job, and for transsexuals to have separate toilet facilities while undergoing sex change surgery. In New York City, kids who didn't speak a word of Spanish had been placed in bilingual classes to learn their three R's in Spanish solely because their own names sound Hispanic. At the University of Pennsylvania, in a state where thousands died at Gettysburg opposing slavery, the president of that college officially set up segregated dormitory space for black students.
Yeah, I know, that's out of bounds now. Dr. King said "Negroes." Jimmy Baldwin and most of us on the March said "black." But it's a no-no now. For me, hyphenated identities are awkward, particularly "Native-American." I'm a Native American, for God's sake. I also happen to be a blood-initiated brother of the Miniconjou Sioux. On my wife's side, my grandson's a twelfth generation native-American, with a capital letter on "American."
Finally, just last month, David Howard, head of the Washington D.C. Office of Public Advocate, used the word "niggardly" while talking about budgetary matters with some colleagues. Of course, "niggardly" means stingy or scanty. But within days, Howard was forced to publicly apologize and then resign. As columnist Tony Snow wrote: "David Howard got fired because some people in public employ were morons who (a) didn't know the meaning of 'niggardly,' (b) don't know how to use a dictionary to discover the meaning, and (c) actually demanded that he apologize for their ignorance."
Now, what does all of this mean? Among other things, it means that telling us what to think has evolved into telling us what to say, so telling us what to do can't be far behind. Before you claim to be a champion of free thought, tell me: Why did political correctness originate on America's campuses? And why do you continue to -- to tolerate it? Why do you, who're supposed to debate ideas, surrender to their suppression? Let -- Let's be honest. Who here in this room thinks your professors can say what they really believe? (Uh-huh. There's a few....) Well, that scares me to death, and it should scare you too, that the superstition of political correctness rules the halls of reason.
You are the best and the brightest. You, here in this fertile cradle of American academia, here in the castle of learning on the Charles River. You are the cream. But I submit that you and your counterparts across the land are the most socially conformed and politically silenced generation since Concord Bridge. And as long as you validate that and abide it, you are, by your grandfathers' standards, cowards. " Continue reading plus there's an MP3 file...

I dedicate this post to the courageous, outstanding and noble David Horowitz of discoverthenetworks org and his Terrorism Awareness Centre.Jihad in academia. Now over 150 US campus's have overt Jew hating, free West destroying and blatantly treasonous Jihadist Muslim front groups fully in place, AND FUNDED BY THE UNIVERSITY. No, really. Muslims are murdering millions of Christians and others. Between 2001 and 2002, Indonesian Muslim jihadist mujahadeen murdered over 10,000 Christians for not converting to Islam. See it in The Melbourne Age? How far is Indonesia from Australia? Far enough to lie and pretend.
The Koran is Mein Kampf. Hey, while digging the Horowitz sites, I started transcribing these Islamic gems of love and peace, by gee, leading OFFICIAL Muslim clerics until I found even more wonderful one's on Dave's vids. But dig 'em anyway. Ah, Islam. As Mark Steyn said, millions of Muslim's are world leaders at being murdering losers and virtually nothing else.
"Christians are infidels, enemies of Allah, his messenger and the believers. They deny and curse Allah and his messenger, how can we draw near to those infidels?" Saudi Sheik Marzouq Salem Al-Ghamdi in Mecca.
“Islam belives that only Islam and the ‘Camp of Kufur’ [unbelief] exist, and that ther is no way to reach Paradise...except by walking in the path of our Prophet Moahhad and joining Islam. Any other way leads to Hell...In light of this my believing brethren, how can it be claimed that Judaism, Christianity and Islam are all paths leading to Allah?" Sheik Adnam Ahmad Siyami, May 11 2001 at a mosque in Mecca.
“Muslims must...educate their children to Jihad…and to hatred of the Jews, the Christians, and the infidels.” Saudi Preacher Sheikh Muhammad Saleh Al-Munajjid.
Obama the corrupt not so ex-ACORN lawyer and continuing corrupt yet lying ACORN pal is cool cos' the NYT’s is hip to Obama. They approve if it's Obama Brand GraftTM. More great news on why people actually are getting more dimwitted. Man, do you know how rare it is to meet folks who can either read or construct a coherent sentence, never mind a paragraph or more? Hey, don't look at me.
The Dumbest Generation by Mark Bauerlein: How the Digital Age Stupefies Young Americans and Jeopardizes Our Future (Or, Don't Trust Anyone Under 30)
“If you’re the parent of someone under 20 and read only one non-fiction book this fall, make it this one. Bauerlein’s simple but jarring thesis is that technology and the digital culture it has created are not broadening the horizon of the younger generation; they are narrowing it to a self-absorbed social universe that blocks out virtually everything else.” Don Campbell, USA Today. “An urgent and pragmatic book on the very dark topic of the virtual end of reading among the young.” Harold Bloom.
“Never have American students had it so easy, and never have they achieved less. . . . Mr. Bauerlein delivers this bad news in a surprisingly brisk and engaging fashion, blowing holes in a lot of conventional educational wisdom.” Charles McGrath, The New York Times. “It wouldn’t be going too far to call this book the Why Johnny Can’t Read for the digital age.” Booklist.
“Throughout The Dumbest Generation, there are . . . keen insights into how the new digital world really is changing the way young people engage with information and the obstacles they face in integrating any of it meaningfully. These are insights that educators, parents, and other adults ignore at their peril.” Lee Drutman, Los Angeles Time.
“Nancy Pelosi is a liar, so labeled by her own party, the administration she serves, the party that opposes her, the media of our nation, and now the people who elected her. And there's little else that all those groups ever would agree on. So like most of the rest of the nation perhaps you find yourself asking, "Why did she do it?" Like the definition of "is," liberals don't know things objectively, rather only what they are told, what they choose to believe, and what they intended for things to mean.
Actual substance, definitions of words, indisputable facts are all things that can be explained away, understood to be something, anything other than what they actually are.
It actually stems from a very sad reality for them all, a lack of belief in absolute truth. If nothing can be seen, understood, or intended to be absolutely true--than nothing is true, everything is subjective, and the only person who gets to decide what is what is the person speaking at the moment. It's simple. Liberals believe that nothing that comes out of their own mouth can ever be classified as a lie. In the reality of liberals there is no objective record of fact or substance, only shades of interpretation.
Abortion is not taking the life of an innocent human being. Adultery is not engaging in oral sex with someone who is not your spouse. Marriage is not the sanctified union of a man and woman. Tax cuts can be given to people who do not pay taxes. Water-boarding is torture though it leaves no scars nor permanent damage. Nationalizing the banks, car companies, and mortgage industries is not socialism. Increasing gun control is not taking away second amendment rights of citizens. Closing Gitmo doesn't mean shutting it down. And for this president especially, letting born children starve to death in soiled hospital utility closets is just allowing a woman the right to choose."
"The colleges have been transformed," said David Horowitz, whose organization, Students for Academic Freedom, tracks ideological bias on campus. "They're now these partisan institutions. They're not going to change."
Horowitz ran a study in 2003 that looked at commencement speakers at 32 top institutions in the U.S. for the previous 10 years. He found that liberals and Democrats were favored over conservatives by a ratio of 15-1. And then he stopped counting. "It's permanent. It's not going to change, partly because there's so little attention being paid to it," he told FOXNews.com"
Nancy 'take my wife'...Pelosi!, is a simple minded, utterly spineless and treasonous liar. Though she is a world-class venal twerp, inside-trading corruptocrat and dimwit too. Mark Steyn dissects Pelosi: “..Speaker Pelosi is a contemptible opportunist hack playing the cheapest but most destructive kind of politics with key elements of national security..
It's worth noting that, by most if not all of her multiple accounts, Nancy Pelosi is as guilty of torture as anybody else. That's not an airy rhetorical flourish but a statement of law. As National Review's Andy McCarthy points out, under Section 2340A(c) of the relevant statute, a person who conspires to torture is subject to the same penalties as the actual torturer. Once Speaker Pelosi was informed that waterboarding was part of the plan and that it was actually being used, she was in on the conspiracy, and as up to her neck in it as whoever it was who was actually sticking it to poor old Abu Zubaydah and the other blameless lads.
Well, sure. It's the Miss USA standard of political integrity: Carrie Prejean and Barack Obama have the same publicly stated views on gay marriage. But the politically correct enforcers know that Barack doesn't mean it, so that's okay, whereas Carrie does, so that's a hate crime. In the torture debate, Pelosi is Obama and Dick Cheney is Carrie Prejean. Dick means it, because to him this is an issue of national security. Nancy doesn't, because to her it's about the shifting breezes of political viability.”
“The Afghan-Canadian brother, Hasibullah Sadiqi, who killed his sister and her fiancé in Ottawa and who is now standing trial, came to Canada when he was five months old. Nevertheless, Hasibullah enacted ancient tribal, (or radically Islamic codes), despite the fact that he had been living in the West for more than twenty one years.
Many male immigrants look as if they’ve assimilated to western ways. They dress in western attire, speak the language of their adopted country, study, socialize with, and work alongside native citizens. They may do all these things even if they wear Muslim, Sikh, or Hindu religious attire.
When it comes to many female immigrants, especially if they are Muslim, things are different. The women are forced into (or “choose”) to wear hijab, niqab, burq’a, or chador. Their movements are closely supervised and monitored. They suffer daily threats: If they do anything that is viewed as “too western,” or do anything against their parents wishes, they will be beaten, cursed, grounded, stalked, spied on, and threatened with death...right now, there are 100 girls being sheltered in hiding to protect them from honor-related violence in just one Swedish county. (Vastra Gotaland). Protecting each one costs “1,500-3,500 kroner a day. “ Multiply that by every county in Sweden.”
Via Hugh Hewitt at townhall, Hitch crushes middle-aged “schoolgirl” Maureen Dowd and Pelosi the super lying, twittering twit. For the top echelons of the Democrat left et al, a life of opportunistic and well paid Marxist mediocrity, corruption, incompetence and intern blow jobs, IS a life. Go figure. And the GOP is an oft spineless, hollowed out shell. And may God help us all.
