Short Bio: I started blogging about politics in 2006, as a populist, skeptical left of center type, with a blog called simply, "The Populist." I suspect, but cannot prove; that my blog might have been hacked by some evil neoconservatives. I cannot prove that at all and also too, around the same time. Hackers from China where attacking wordpress blogs. I believe either the Neocons or the Chinese got my site. I don't know honestly know which. Either way, by 2007, I began to see that I really did not fit within the Democrat Party and liberal circles and after my blog was hacked; I created a blog called "Political Byline" and I kept writing; first as a Centrist and then as a Conservative Populist For my long bio, see the "About Me" section on this blog.

Republican Space Rangers????

This video exploits every Neo-Conservative Nuance.

It goes from side splitting hilarious to just down right sad.

If it is not clear, that this is not a good time to be a conservative or worse yet, a Republican, it should be very clear. after viewing this.

I’m sure Keith Olbermann would just love this.

Obama speaks out Wrights comments

It seems that Obama has finally spoken out against Rev. Wright.

Here is the Video:

 

Okay, I’ve watched the video and here is my official, right of center, political opinion about it.

First off, I do commend Senator Obama for coming out with the stern statement that he did, I think it shows that he doesn’t support this sort of mentality possessed by his Pastor. 

However, personally, I could never look at Obama, the same way that I did before all this stuff came out about Rev. Wright. I could never trust him. I will not vote for him, should he get the party’s nomination. I will vote for a third party candidate, if there is one. If a libertarian is on the Michigan Ballot or a Constitutional Party candidate is on the ballot in Michigan, I will vote for that person, as I do not want the specter of knowing that I voted for a person that embraces Liberation Theology on my conscious.

I realize that he isn’t Rev. Wright, but I also know that he spent many years in that Church, and if he says that he didn’t hear that sort of stuff, he is either lying or did not pay attention. 

I also believe that it speaks to the common sense of Senator Obama, he should have had the foresight to vet the sermons that his Pastor had made, even after he had left Chicago. He should have known, that even some of the more mild things that Rev. Wright has said would have been perceived as incinerary and radical by those who have not been exposed to the black culture and the black Church. His inability to do this, shows a lack of good common sense on his part. I do not wish this sort of a person to be my President. 

I wish Senator Obama the best of luck in the remainder of this Primary, but as of this moment, I will no longer be someone who supports this man or his candidacy for President of the United States of America.

This is the last thing that I will ever publish on this Blog about this subject regarding Obama and his Pastor.

Oh great, this is all we need right now….

The Article: NOOSE ALLEGEDLY FOUND AT SECRET SERVICE TRAINING CENTER (via Austin American Statesman)

Quote:

The U.S. Secret Service has placed a white agent on leave after an African American employee reported finding a noose hanging at the service’s main training facility outside the nation’s capital.

The service has acknowledged “an allegation of misconduct” at its J.J. Rowley Training Center in Beltsville, Md., and that an employee last week was placed on administrative leave pending the outcome of an investigation. The employee is a veteran agent with the service, according to fellow agents.

The noose was found by an African American officer in the uniform division of the service during the week of April 14, according to those familiar with the alleged incident. That division protects the White House and surrounding grounds. He reported the incident to his supervisor and it was sent up the chain of command. He declined to comment for this story.

I won’t deny it, racism does still exist in America. This is wrong and something should be done about it. In the secret service no less. Wow. Surprised

The Rev Wright fallout continues….

See Here.

There are a growing number of Black people who are saying, "Whoa! Wait a Minute! That man doesn’t speak for me or my Church!"

Now that, I can understand. I will admit this, I grew up around blacks, When I lived in Detroit, I also went to School with them, I did go to Private Schools, but I did go to school with black people, and I never heard anything like, what Rev. Wright said at both of those speeches.

I guess what I am trying to make clear here is, that Liberation Theology is NOT a universally held doctrine amongst black Christians and in their Churches. Liberation Theology is a Liberal Christian doctrine, which has smatterings of Marxism in it. We all know that Marxism is the building blocks for Communism. It is also a known fact that the Democrat Party is the party of socialism, or at least embraces some of the tenants of a socialist agenda.

I also noticed something else rather alarming, Rev. Wright in what is known, as a believer in a very Liberal Christian Theological doctrine, called Universalism.

Universalism is basically a teaching that basically, "All Paths lead to God"… there’s only ONE little problem with that whole idea.  That is this, and if I come off sounding preachy here, I apologize, this is supposed to be a Political Blog and not a Christian one, But I must speak out against falsehoods being taught on national TV. The problem is this right here….:

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (John 14:6 KJV)

Essentially, this scripture says, that Islam is a LIE, That buddhism is a LIE, that Roman Catholicism is a LIE, When it says that it is the "Mother Church". that ANY OTHER Religion out there, that doesn’t believe that JESUS CHRIST is the ONE and ONLY Messiah and that the Holy Bible, with it’s 66 Books is the Holy Scriptures , it is, for all intents and purposes, A LIE CRAFTED OUT THE PIT OF THE DEVIL’S HELL!

Let me be absolutely clear, I make absolutely no bones about it. I believe that there is ONLY ONE WAY to Eternal Salvation, and that is through Jesus Christ. Not by a Church, Not by good works, not by being a good ol’ boy. Only by Jesus Christ and by Accepting him as your personal Saviour. 

As to Rev. Wrights weak defense to to that Doctrine, which was:

And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. (John 10:16 KJV)

What that was referring to, were other converts that Christ had met along the way, in other cites and the like, not of other gods or anything of that Nature. That is one of the weakest defenses of the liberal universalist doctrine out there. 

Okay, enough Bible study for one day…. I hope that I explained this where everyone can understand it.

Wright Speaks….

Yes, He did speak.

Yes, I did listen to the WHOLE thing.

Yes, he did have some valid points.

Yes, there are people who do not like what he said, which is no surprise to me.

The only people who will just reject outright everything that he says, are racist bigots, who are haters. To that I say, they can, frankly, go to hell. They know who they are. 

The reaction seems to be mixed, so far. Which is no surprise.

As someone who grew up in Southwest Detroit and grew up around Whites, Mexicans, and yes, Black people…. I can see where Wright is coming from.

Do I think his comments, that were made right after September 11, 2001, were okay???  No. I think that they were misguided, hateful and just plain wrong.

But the one’s made last night, were justified, and made a good deal of sense. At least to me, this is because I came from a multi-cultural background. Most people that will listen to this and take critical stance, are the pasty white people, who have never hung around anyone other than their own kind, and quite frankly, belong on the forums over at Stormfront.org.

That is all….

Update: I also listened to the second speech. I will make this absolutely clear. This man is a believer in "Black Liberation Theology", which is a derivative of "Liberation Theology". This doctrine is, in fact, a Marxist Theology. So, as far as I am concerned, Rev. Jeremiah Wright is nothing more, than a black communist. If Barack Obama agrees with ANY aspect of what this man says, Religious or Political, he is, in fact, a Marxist, and I will NOT be voting for him, should he secure the nomination of the Democrat Party. I do not want to be responsible for the election of a closet communist in our White House.

Update 2: Here’s the Video:

Holy Hell, that's all we need, right now…

Oh, this is just wonderful…. If it’s true.

Kim Jong-il builds ‘Thunderbirds’ runway for war in North Korea (via Times Online)

North Korean military engineers are completing an underground runway beneath a mountain that can protect fighter aircraft from attack until they take off at high speed through the mouth of a tunnel.

The 6,000ft runway is a few minutes’ flying time from the tense front line where the Korean People’s Army faces soldiers from the United States and South Korea.

The project was identified by an air force defector from North Korea and captured on a satellite image by Google Earth, according to reports in the South Korean press last week.

It is one of three underground fighter bases among an elaborate subterranean military infrastructure built to withstand a “shock and awe” assault in the first moments of a war, the defector said.

I say, if it’s to be believed, because any blogger worth his salt knows that the Times of London is owned by Mr. Murdock, and it not really known for it’s truthfulness and accuracy in reporting.
