Time for Some Counter-chants
A bunch of leftist losers from the Occupy bullshit movement interrupted Mitt Romney while he was giving a speech the other day.
From The Hill:
CLIVE, Iowa – Occupy Wall Street protestors interrupted Mitt Romney’s speech in a suburban Des Moines warehouse Monday night, breaking in with their rallying cry of “mic check” and yelling up at the candidate.
Romney paused, seemingly thrown off-balance, and the crowd began chanting “Mitt, Mitt,” loudly to drown out the protestors.
The protests quieted down for a moment. Romney thanked his supporters and then tried to return to his speech. “Let’s talk about the Constitution again,” he began.
“Citizens United is not a part of the Constitution,” a protestor yelled. “Stop the war on the poor,” another proclaimed, leading to boos from the crowd and a tight smile from Romney.
A supporter yelled “go to work,” drawing laughs from the partisan audience.
Nice to see the crowd drown out the morons. That “go to work” comment was a great start, but conservatives and republicans need to start shouting these idiots down, making fun of them and ridiculing them along the way.
How about this chant: “Get a job. Earn some pay. Leftist losers go away!”
Same thing when union goons start throwing elbows and attempting to shout down or interrupt conservative events. Let’s throw some punches back. We should be out there will video cameras and baseball bats. When the left wants to shut us down, we should beat them down.
Another reason to hate WordPress
UPDATE:
OK, so I searched around and found a fix to the problem, but it involved installing some google plugin. I hate google, so I’ll try uninstalling it to see if the fix stays.
I just updated the WordPress version running this blog and now when I create a new post, all the little icons at the top of the posting page are gone.
I can’t figure out how to get them back either.
This is as bad as Facebook making changes that make your page less usefull to you than the older version.
WordPress Beginning to Suck
Not yet ready to declare: WORD PRESS SUCKS, but, the recent banning of BareNakedIslam.wordpress.com, a website devoted to exposing the atrocities of radical Islam by WordPress really pisses me off.
See Gatewaypundit. A Tweet from BNI:
BARE NAKED ISLAM has been taken down by WordPress thanks to CAIR terrorists. Looking for a new host now.
More info about the bannishment here and here.
From Zillablog:
Bare Naked Islam is a popular and edgy counter-jihad blog that recently found itself in CAIR’s cross-hairs because BNI supported the right of home improvement store Lowe’s to not be forced to advertise (and pay for said advertising) on a low-rated TV show that tries to whitewash islamic supremacism. CAIR does not like that BNI uses language which does not bow to the cultural marxism of ‘political correctness’ and tells the truth about the brutal and atrocious crimes against humanity that are committed every single day all over the world by islamic supremacists for islam. So CAIR has been pushing to get the blog Bare Naked Islam shut down, because CAIR hates free speech.
I’m a 1st Amendment absolutist who believes anyone should be able to say, print or post anything they want about anything, regardless of whether it’s racially, religiously, culturally or otherwise offense to some group or individual.
It’s like TV, if you don’t like what you see on a particular channel, CHANGE THE FUCKING CHANNEL, YOU IDIOT.
I’ve been a happy WordPress user for almost five years now. I love the simplicity and ease of use the program affords bloggers. It’s easy enough to manipulate so that if you want to customize a template, as I have with this one, you can. Or if you’re a complete novice, you can just go with the gazillion free templates out there for your use.
But, this business of bowing to CAIR is almost enough to make me switch to Joomla or some other program. The good folks at BareNakedIslam, I hope, have learned the value of owning your own URL. In the meantime, I’m going to write a nasty gram over at the WordPress forum about their cowardly action.
Punch ‘Em in the Face
Oregon congressional candidate Art Robinson goes on the loathesome Rachel Maddow show and attacks her mudslinging, underhanded interview style.
Every conservative politician or candidate should model Art Robinson’s style of rhetorical combat when facing liberal hacks like Maddow. Never be defensive, go on the offense.
No Surprise, really
From WTOP.COM:
Three dozen fall ill at Obama rally in Md.
BOWIE, Md. – About three dozen people were treated for illness during a rally featuring President Obama at Bowie State University.
Prince George’s County Fire and EMS spokesman Mark Brady tells WTOP numerous ambulances were sent to the rally after people started fainting and became dizzy.
The problems could be related to warmer temperatures Thursday. Brady says crowds at the rally were outside and packed shoulder to shoulder.
Two people were taken to the hospital, Brady says. The rest have been treated at the scene.
Officials set up a triage area inside the gymnasium at Bowie State.
Obama was scheduled to appear in an effort to rally Maryland Democrats for incumbent Gov. Martin O’Malley prior to November’s elections.
The president still spoke despite the health issues in the audience. He implored voters to be ready to fight in the upcoming elections.
He makes me sick all the time.
Good Cop
Saw this on The Agitator’s blog. It’s an example of the way police officers should behave when confronting citizens.
No Place Like NYC
Why is there public official in the U.S. speaking with such clarity.
Bad Faith
Another great rant from Pat Condell
Never Forget
11 million people died in Nazi death camps.
Watch the whole thing. Visit the Holocaust Museum too. Never forget.
Republicans Suck, Part I
Been reading “The Battle” by Arthur C. Brooks over the past couple days. The subtitle sums up the theme of the book: “How the Fight Between FREE ENTERPRISE and BIG GOVERNMENT Will Shape America’s Future.”
He divides America into two basic political groups. There the 70 percent for which politics really aren’t that big a deal, and the 30 percent for whom politics is almost religion. The divide is also along cultural lines, hence the culture war as described in the book between those who believe in limited government, individualism and free enterprise, and the collectivists, socialists, liberals, statists or whatever else you’d like to call people who look to government and government control of all aspects of life as the best way to ensure human happiness.
Anyway, Brooks points out how the current depression was caused and is owned, lock, stock and barrell by Democrats and liberals. It was bad policy, bad housing policy going back more than three decades that created the housing collapse that led to the financial system collapse and the current prolonged and long-lasting depression.
But, he also notes that Republicans had a very big hand in creating the mess we’re in right now:
It was a Republican administration that began the huge Wall Street and Detroit bailout. This raised expectations about future levels of spending that the incoming administration was able to fulfill. And for years before the crisis, Republicans weakened the culture of free enterprise, just like Democrats. During those years, the GOP talked about free enterprise while simultaneously growing the government with borrowed money and increasing the percentage of citizens with no income tax liability. These politicians spent billions of tax dollars on special interests with every bit as much gusto as the most shameless statists on the left.
Look at social spending at the federal level — always a target of Republicans running for office. From 2001 to 2008, when the GOP occupied the White House and during part of which they also controlled both houses of Congress, these expenditures rose. Even after adjusting for inflation, for example, the Department of Education grew by 54 percent.
It doesn’t stop there. Consider new entitlements such as Medicare Part D, the program to give prescription drugs to seniors, cooked up in a bipartisan process in 2003. The Medicare Modernization Act became the largest medical entitlement program in history… But it was enacted under a Republican government and created a climate of spending that made today’s future-sapping expenditures somehow seem acceptable.
Under the Republicans, Americans became aware of infamous “earmarks.” … President Bush signed spending bills containing more than 55,000 earmarks.
And then there’s good old-fashioned government pork and outright corruption with public money. Think of Alaska’s Ted Stevens, the seven-term Republican senator responsible for the infamous “bridge to nowhere.”
Republicans, who once counted spending discipline as a core value, have been responsible as Democrats for the growth of government in recent years.
I remember in 1994 (I think) when Republicans won control of Congress after decades of Democrat rule. They all came to Washington vowing to cut government and eliminate at least one government agency. Two agencies ripe for picking were (and are) the Department of Education and the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
If ever conservatives get serious about defunding the left, those two agencies need to go. But, back in the early ’90s all the brand new GOP chairman of various oversight committees, particularly the HUD and Education committees, realized that without the agencies, they no longer had their committee grandstands upon which to pontificate.
Same thing with all the talk back then of privatizing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the two secondary market leaches that are bleeding the U.S. Treasury dry. It was known for years that those two government-sponsored political cash cows were huge risks to the treasury. But, when the subcommittee chairman overseeing the two mortgage giants realized that privatizing took them out of his control, and possible dried up all the political contributions he and his colleagues got from them, the issue went away.
So now we have a bunch of Republicans hoping to capitalize on the mess the Democrats have made of the economy. They’ll talk conservative and free markets until after the election and then rejoin the Democrats in pursuing the same reckless spending, albeit at a slower pace.
I don’t trust Republicans, and no conservative should.
When You’re Holding a Hammer…
…everything looks like a nail.
Not much into country music, but this video over at Ace of Spades is pretty good:
What’s amazing is the guy who co-wrote the song got fired from his teaching job after some parents complained and the school administration caved.
Which brings up, once again, the need to completely, totally and ruthlessly purge liberals of any stripe from the ranks of government jobs, boards and elected positions. They just have to go.
As Ace says:
This is how it is going to have to be: First of all, all of the school board members here have to be run against, and run hard against, and ejected from office. And then the principal needs to be fired, and every administrator along the way.
Second: Conservatives must begin, immediately, to get liberals fired from their jobs for any political expression. Any. Political. Expression.
We have tried to reason to them that this fascism is unfair. They don’t care, they don’t get it. All they see is the upside of fascism, the “good” side, the happy side, the I-get-to-coerce-my-opponents-and-hold-them-in-terror side.
They haven’t been held in terror themselves, worried that any stray comment they make may cause them to lose their livelihood (in the worst recession since the depression, no less). They do not “behave” as conservatives are forced to stay in line because they haven’t experienced the terror of of a hostile political bloc which has seized control of all the apparatuses of government.
They must be made to be afraid. And when a certain number of them have experienced the bad side of fascism, perhaps then they will be amenable to reason.
But they won’t be until then. It’s time to start using their despicable tactics against them. Not out of vengeance — but as a teachable moment.
Fire them all.
Who’s the New Guy?
Heh.
The New Extremists
Ouch!
Thuggery
The congresswoman in the following clip comes across as pompous, self-important and condescending as an elementary school principal addressing an auditorium of unruly first graders.
However, note the thug roaming the room trying to intimidate the unruly citizens who actually came to speak to the congresswoman. Also, note how she wants to hide from the public by stopping any video taping of the event.
What a moron.
From Gateway Pundit:
Somebody should have gotten on the thugs face and told him to sit the fuck down.
Asshole.
