Maybe They're Just That Dumb

Far from ushering in age of hope and change, Obama can be more rightly seen as the last stand of rigid ideologues who think they can make the world conform to their wishes rather than to its nature.

Sandy Pulls No Punches

Sandy Cuts Wide Swath of Damage

I've been looking at photos of the devastation at the Jersey shore - I grew up there, so it's what most interested me- and I have to say it is beyond belief. The Jersey shore is no stranger to storm damage but it really looks like all the stars aligned for Sandy. Thank God the loss of life was minimal.

And I don't want to make light of anyone's pain or suffering but this one sentence taken from the linked article above belongs in the "there's always one" category:

On Long Island, a man lit a firework that he mistook for a candle, and blew his hand off, police say.

Was his name Curly Howard?

Storm Fail

FEMA, W.H. send storm victims to Internet

Despite the heightened expectation of widespread power and cable television failures, everyone from the president to local newscasters seem to expect the public to rely entirely on the Internet and their TVs for vital news and instructions.

None of the major cable or local news channels put emergency phone numbers or key radio station frequencies on their screens. The only phone-related instructions on the homepage of ready.gov is how to get monthly disaster-prep text messages. The Federal Emergency Management Agency told the public via Twitter to use texts and social media outlets to stay informed.

Can't Argue With That Logic

Gay on Gay Violence

Wisconsin GOP campaign worker hospitalized after apparent gay-bashing assault

Actually that is not true, it was not a gay-bashing assault. He was assaulted for the "crime" of being a traitor to the gay "cause," assaulted for being a gay Republican. Most likely assaulted by a gay Democrat.

Wood said his attacker's reference to a warning likely pointed to graffiti he found painted on his car last week. The vandalism included the phrases "house trained republican faggot," "traitor," and "ur like a jew 4 hitler."

Yet another case of violence fron the left.

Faster and Furiouser

Beck Breaks Down Obama's 'Lying' on Libya



I don't think anyone will be going to jail over this - let alone the president - but not because they don't deserve to. Gun running, murder and cover-up is apparently not a crime if you are the government, or at least a Democrat.

This is like they thought, "We got away with Fast and Furious, let's try it bigger and more spectacular!"

Life is Unfair

French Socialists: Unfair That Some Children Have Good Parents

Socialist French President François Hollande is unhappy with the "inequality" of education in his country. He thinks it's unfair that some children get schoolwork help from their parents at home while others don't. To address this perceived injustice, Hollande plans to ban all homework in French schools and force all students to complete their work at school. In typical socialist fashion, he wants to "foster educational equality" not by raising performance standards and increasing educational opportunities for everyone, but by punishing those children whose parents take an interest in their education and dare support them at home.

This latest education reform spectacle in France showcases the intellectual and moral bankruptcy of socialism. In the delusional view of leftist ideologues, good parents and stable families have no right to support their offspring's education. Their children must be prevented from unfairly getting any educational advantages over other students from "disadvantaged" households. However, parents who are derelict in their duties and fail to educate their children will be protected and rewarded by the state.

Life is inherently unfair and there is nothing anyone can do to change that. What's next, lobotomies for anyone with a greater than average IQ? Restraints for people who are athletically gifted? Where does it end?

At any rate, the entire premise of lowering standards for equality of outcome is 180 degrees out of phase. We should be encouraging everyone to attain as high a standard as they can with full knowledge that some will always exceed others - and that's OK.

Who doesn't enjoy seeing the truly talented perform, whatever the talent? You know when you see it and you appreciate it for the gift that it is and all the hard work that went into developing that gift. It blesses everyone, instead of cursing everyone as socialism does.

Bullied by Government

Teen Gets Bullied During TV Interview About...Bullying

Just one week before the media came to interview the boy, he was suspended from school for three days. The harsh action was taken after Deener fought back against a student who was harassing him during a separate incident.

This is one of the reasons for school shootings, I'm sure of it. The kid is being bullied, he's supposed to tell a teacher. He does. The teacher does nothing. The kid continues to be bullied. The kid fights back, teacher suspends the kid for fighting. Kid comes back and continues to be bullied. Teachers do nothing.

Here in Florida we've had a couple of cases of parents getting on the school bus to confront the bullies. How can you blame them when this goes on. Not only does the good kid get bullied, he gets punished by the school as well. That's got to do wonders for a child's psyche.

That's also the way the criminal justice system works now, especially in liberal cities.

Whatever You Do,

Avoid socialism

"America's wealth comes from the efforts of people striving for success. Take away their incentive with badmouthing success and you take away the wealth that helps us take care of the needy,"

"I grew up in a socialist country and I have seen what that does to people. There is no hope, no freedom, no pride in achievement, The nation became poorer and poorer, and that's what I see happening here."

The proof is out there, there is historical record. Venezuela is going down the rat hole as we speak and Europe is nearing the end of another failure cycle. Failure is the inevitable result of socialism.

The Real Secret

Dreams From My Real Father is now available to stream on Netflix. I urge you to watch it, it puts all the puzzle pieces we have learned of Obama's life together into a cohesive and clear picture of the true Obama.

Hey, if you're a Marxist and you want that for America, go ahead and vote Obama. But if not, you owe it to yourself and your country to know the truth and not be fooled into voting for something you don't want. Don't take this lightly, they don't.

The Perils of Safety

Damn good movie.

Jim Wallis is Wrong.

Lib Pastor Jim Wallis Accuses Conservative of ‘Hatred’ & Begs Her to ‘Stop Talking’ During On-Air Clash Over Anti-Jihad Subway Ad

If Jim Wallis is correct, then any ad or anyone who stands up against child abuse, spousal abuse, drug abuse, theft, kidnapping, the slave/sex trade, murder, rape, or pedifiles is using hateful language and they better stop talking. Calling someone out on a lie? Hateful language. Telling the truth is hateful language.

The Bible does not teach us we must roll over and die in the face of evil. If the bad man puts a knife to the throat of your beautiful little baby and you shoot him before he can do any harm, YOU DID NOTHING WRONG.

On the other hand, if you see a growing evil - pick one, oh, I don't know, say this one - and everyone (EVERYONE - including the police, the government) just ignores the problem because they don't want to get involved or be accused of hatred or racism, THAT IS WRONG. It's not going to get any better. It's not going to go away. They are not going to feel sorry for you or have mercy on you when they get to your house.

Love your neighbor as yourself. So what do you do if your neighbor on the left puts a gun to the head of your neighbor on the right, intending to kill him? I guess, if you misunderstand the scriptures like Jim Wallis does, you go to Walmart.

Nothing to See Here?

Holder Lied, Mexicans Died!

So the Left’s it's-different-when-we-do-it card applies not just to unmanned drones on Waziristani villagers, but Mexican adolescents gunned down at a birthday party. Would it be too much to ask one of the Pulitzer-laden bores at the New York Times or the Emmy-garlanded chaps at the network news divisions to look into this? Oh, no, wait! Look, over there! The coolest president ever is doing a photo-op with Beyonce!
