Brain-Dead Socialist Liberal Science Blog attacks me

I hate getting into a tit for tat with other blogs. Because, quite frankly, it causes things to happen that one regrets later.

A few days ago, I left a rather tepid and crass comment at a science blog, that posted a video mocking Republicans.

Well, now they’re using that occasion to mock a newsletter that I posted to my blog.

Honestly, I do not feel that I have to explain myself to anyone at all.

But, because I do not want anyone being confused; I will. I wrote my rather angry comment there originally, because I thought it was pretty damned rude of someone to make a video mocking Republicans with, of all things, a damned iPhone. If someone on the right had made a video like that; highlighting the bad points of Socialist Liberal Democrats; stuff like Identity Politics, the systematic slaughter of unborn Babies, the promotion and enabling of the Homosexual Lifestyle, The denial of even the existence of a God, much less the Son of God, Jesus Christ, and the list goes on and on….  —- the outrage would be deafening. But, because it is a Socialist Liberal attacking the right; well, that is perfectly fine! 🙄

For the record, that posting, as of right now, has sent me all of 16 referrals and 27 views of the said article that he refers to. Wow, some blog, I would figure there would be a good deal more than that.

What really makes me angry, is the fact that someone has basically threatened to pull Denial of Service attack on the site or even possibly mine. Which is such crap. David Cloud is not affiliated with this Blog, at all. Other than the fact that his writings have been something that I have been reading since about 2003. His writings are basically what led me to decide that my days in the Pentecostal Christian circles were over for good. But, yet, they are going to attack David Cloud’s site. Such class; but then again, we are talking about Godless Liberals.

Another thing that I believe that it is my responsibility to explain. Yes, I am a Christian, Yes, doctrinally, I am a Baptist. But I will be the first to tell you, I do not consider myself to be a shining example of either. In fact, I have not been in a Church since 2006; and I will be the first to tell you, that I have serious issues with the modern day Church. This especially applies to the Evangelical and Fundamentalist Churches. If these idiots had bothered to read my “About Me” and “F.A.Q” sections, they would have known this. But because they were eager to lob an insult, they went for this.

So, why did I post the Newsletter? Easy; Content. Usually if it is a slow day or if there is not many things to blog about in the political world, I will throw one of those newsletters in. Just to give a different perspective. But, I guess that must be unacceptable to the secular, God-Denying Atheists. Not that I really honestly care, because they do not run this Blog; I do. But, I guess it is to be expected to be mocked by people of that mental state, after all the Bible does say:

The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. – (Psalms 14:1 KJV)

In fact, The Bible says it twice:

The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. Corrupt are they, and have done abominable iniquity: there is none that doeth good.  – (Psalms 53:1 KJV)

So, essentially, I consider this par for the course, when dealing with Godless Liberals.

But, to those who happened to read this blog, and read there. (If any) I apologize for my profanity. I should not have wrote it. I just get so angry when I see Socialist Liberals mocking a party that has done more good, than the Democratic Party has ever done. Further more, a party that still fights for America. Unlike the Terrorist appeasing Liberal Democrats.

I was strongly considering lobbing a “over the top” and wildly politically incorrect insult back, But because the Bible says the following:

Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. (Romans 12:17-21 KJV)

Seeing that this is the pattern that I am supposed to live my life by. I will simply answer this criticism and mocking with a solemn warning to those who mocked me:

And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:12-15 KJV)

To those who deny the Lord Jesus Christ, The Bible and the two are intertwined:

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (John 1:1 KJV)

You should know; that the Lake of Fire is your final fate. I will not candy-coat it. It is the truth and all the denying in the world will not change it.

However, it does not need to be that way. As the Bible Says:

If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (John 3:12-18 KJV)

and…..

But what saith it? The word is nigh thee, even in thy mouth, and in thy heart: that is, the word of faith, which we preach; That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him. For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. (Romans 10:8-13 KJV)

I will not preach, I just quote the truth; and that my friends is the truth. That is my reply.

Now, back to politics!

Dede Scozzafava calls the cops on The Weekly Standard's John McCormack

I do not normally insert this blog into Local Politics, but this one was unavoidable.

I am probably the last person in the world; that would defend anyone from the Weekly Standard, because I just do not agree with their Wilsonian foreign policy. But this here is the epitome of lame:

Via The Weekly Standard‘s John McCormack:

Tonight, Dede Scozzafava, the Republican candidate for the November 3 special election in the 23rd congressional district, spoke to about 100 Republicans at the Lewis County GOP dinner at the Elks Lodge 1605. After a dinner of turkey, mashed potatoes, and stuffing,

Seriously, Who the hell would want to vote for an ugly woman like this anyhow?
Seriously, Who the hell would want to vote for an ugly woman like this anyhow?

Scozzafava fended off criticism that she wasn’t as conservative as third-party candidate Doug Hoffman and urged her supporters to vote for her in order to keep her Democratic opponent Bill Owens from serving as a rubber stamp for Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama’s agenda in Washington. It was a fairly typical evening–until the speech ended and someone with Scozzafava’s campaign called the police. On me.

Earlier today Lindsay Beyerstein reported that Scozzafava responded to an AFL-CIO questionnaire by saying she would support card-check legislation that eliminates the secret ballot requirement for organizing unions. As Beyerstein notes, this contradict statements made by a Scozzafava spokesman in September.

So after the dinner, I asked Assemblywoman Scozzafava if she supports card check. “Yes, yes I do,” she replied.

At that point someone from her campaign placed himself between Scozzafava and me and told me I should direct all my inquires to the campaign’s spokesman. I nonetheless asked Scozzafava if her signing of the Americans for Tax Reform pledge not to vote to raise taxes means she would oppose any health care bill that raises taxes. “What kind of taxes?” she replied. Then another couple of gentlemen interposed themselves between Scozzafava and me as Scozzafava headed for the door.

I spotted Scozzafava later as she was walking to the parking lot, and asked her: ” Assemblywoman, do you believe that the health-care bill should exclude coverage for abortion?” She didn’t reply. I asked her twice more. Silence.

After she got into her car, I went to my car and fired up my laptop to report the evening’s events.

Minutes later a police car drove into the parking lot with its lights flashing. Officer Grolman informed me that she was called because “there was a little bit of an uncomfortable situation” and then took down my name, date of birth, and address.

“Maybe we do things a little differently here, but you know, persistence in that area, you scared the candidate a little bit,” Officer Grolman told me.

“[Scozzafava] got startled, that’s all,” Officer Grolman added. “It’s not like you’re in any trouble.”

I am not a big fan of overly aggressive reporters either. But this is totally lame and shows that this woman knows that she is in trouble. She knows the truth; that she is nothing more than a liberal, who ran as a Republican; so she could get elected. I mean, I am all for personal protection; but calling the cops, because someone asked you some questions? Seriously?!?! I think Dede needs to either fess up, that she is really a liberal or she needs to drop out of this race. Because obviously, she is not ready for Prime-time.

Good on the Obama Adminstration and Eric Holder for changing the Medical Marijuana Law!

Mark your calendars folks; because it is not every day that I commend President Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder in the same blog posting.

The Obama administration will not seek to arrest medical marijuana users and suppliers as long as they conform to state laws, under new policy guidelines to be sent to federal prosecutors Monday.

Two Justice Department officials described the new policy to The Associated Press, saying prosecutors will be told it is not a good use of their time to arrest people who use or provide medical marijuana in strict compliance with state laws.

The new policy is a significant departure from the Bush administration, which insisted it would continue to enforce federal anti-pot laws regardless of state codes.

Fourteen states allow some use of marijuana for medical purposes: Alaska, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington.

California is unique among those for the widespread presence of dispensaries — businesses that sell marijuana and even advertise their services. Colorado also has several dispensaries, and Rhode Island and New Mexico are in the process of licensing providers, according to the Marijuana Policy Project, a group that promotes the decriminalization of marijuana use.

via AP Newsbreak: New medical marijuana policy issued – Yahoo! Finance.

Now I am not going to sit here and act like some vindictive idiot and say, “Oh, they just embraced federalism, because it was convenient!” I have always said that I would praise Obama when I felt like it was due and I would criticize him, when I felt it was due too.

Now Obama might be an idiot when it comes to his fiscal policy and domestic policy; but it comes to this one, he gets my approval. I have always felt that the Government’s so-called “War on Drugs” was a huge freaking joke and quite frankly, has not stopped totally drug usage in this Country. So, while I might poo-poo the President on some things. This is not one of them. Put an “A+” on his paper, a gold star on his rather pointed head and send him home with a hot fudge sundae; as he has done well here.

Better yet, give me the hot fudge sundae as the President is trying to watch his weigh. 😉 😛 😀

Socialist Liberals just cannot conceal their racist ways

I saw this and I was amazed…. 😯

For months now, I’ve resisted trying to equate Michael Steele with Sarah Palin — a Republican Party choice (a.k.a. token) to appease a certain demographic. Palin was to appeal to women voters. Steele was to be the public olive branch to people of color.

via Special Sunday Post: RNC Chairman Michael Steele’s bizarre interview with Univision’s Jorge Ramos (Latina Lista).

Looks like Juan Williams is not the only person getting pegged as a “House Negro” by the left.

Now, Michael Steele is being called the “Token Negro” by the lefty bloggers. Unbelievable.

I realize that some of the actions of Michael Steele may not be liked by some; the ghetto’ing of the G.O.P.’s website and some of his statements might be face-palm worthy. But I will call this for what it is; Racism.

Shame on the Progressive movement; this shows that the Democratic Party is headed back to its roots of racial intolerance. As if they were ever tolerant in the first place; believe me, I know. When I still was writing as a “Left of Center” blogger, I tried joining the Liberal Bloggers “Ad Hive”, on Blogads;  because I rejected Homosexuality as immoral. So much for tolerance eh?

Disaster: CPAC West 2009

I was thinking about blogging about this; but I wanted to wait until there was more information. I had first heard about this from Ed Morrissey on Twitter yesterday. Ed is a straight up guy and will tell the truth, no matter if it hurts him or not. Because of this, I highly admire the guy.

I was not sure how bad things were out at CPAC west, until Jim Hoft over at Gateway Pundit posted this video:

But, I figured that this about par for the course; Ziegler was an overly aggressive media type, which has gotten him in trouble before. But then I saw the posting by Ed over at HotAir, Now keep in mind what I wrote about Ed a minute ago about his honesty:

The nadir of the conference for myself personally, as well as some of my colleagues on Blogger Row, was the panel that featured many of us on the impact of New Media. The inclusion of one panelist, unknown to any of us, had some of us stumped; it turned out to be a sponsor who apparently demanded time on the panel, even though he runs a fax-blasting service. He proceeded to call me “rude” for expressing my opinion on this blog of the presentation of impeachment for “criticizing my hosts,” which proved an immediate buzz-killer for an audience that had just built energy from Stephen Kruiser’s hilarious take on how easy it was to get Twitter (“It’s just typing,” Kruiser told the audience.) The same sponsor then proceeded to trash blogs, Twitter, Facebook, and every part of New Media with the exception of …. fax blasting, leaving most of us wondering why he was considered for a contribution on New Media and its potential.

The Western CPAC event is not officially part of the traditional CPAC convention, but the ACU is listed as one of its sponsors, and ACU chair David Keene was in attendance in the entire time. In fact, our friend John Ziegler attended for the express purpose of getting Keene to answer for his pay-for-play shenanigans with FedEx earlier this year as well as Keene’s attacks on Sarah Palin. The situation turned ugly, as Mediaite reports; Western CPAC ejected Ziegler after he followed Keene into the speaking hall, which followed Keene calling Ziegler an “asshole” and saying he wanted to punch Ziegler.

[….]

This comes as a piece with the New Media panel and the fringe nature of some of the sponsors. While I had several great conversations with Floyd Brown and believe him to be genuine about his pursuit of impeachment, it was made clear to me by several sources at the conference that they included it primarily as a fund-raising mechanism instead of a serious argument. The general theme of the conference appeared to be mainly a sales job for the personal benefit of the sponsors, and not the promotion of real conservative ideas. And quite frankly, after spending several hundred dollars to attend an event just to be told that dissent is “the heighth of rudeness” and that bloggers should shut up and defer to their movement elders was just a little too much too take.

I won’t return to events sponsored by the same organizations in the future. The big problem with the conservative movement has been its self-appointed leaders telling others to shut up and follow in lockstep, and I don’t think any so-called movement leaders taking that approach have the first foggy clue about what the New Media and Tax Parties mean.

At this point, I thought okay, the event was run by some kooks and Zeigler got thrown out. But what got me, was WHY he was tossed out. You can go here and read Zeigler’s account of him getting tossed out, but these videos, they speak for themselves:

Okay, let me first say; Yes, Zeigler is an aggressive media guy. But since when is questioning someone grounds for tossing someone out of a conference? Someone that was booked and paid for a booth to sell his DVD? This my friends is the epitome of lame.

I’ll let Ed Morrissey pick it up from here:

From my perspective, the only thing John did that crossed any kind of line was when he followed Keene into the speaking hall — where Keene was obviously trying to run away — and he had to be asked to stop repeatedly to keep from disrupting one of the panels. Instead of just dropping it, the event organizers escalated the problem by first kicking John off of his panel and then making the entire issue public when John had already agreed to leave — an agreement in which I was involved, for full disclosure, and which fell apart while I got sick in the hotel (I had some problems with my diabetes medication this weekend). The final act of this little drama was, from my perspective, completely avoidable by Western CPAC’s brain trust.

I agree, I also note that Ed and many other Conservative Bloggers say that they will not be returning to CPAC and will not be involved with anything sponsor and/or promoted by the American Conservative Union. I do not blame them at all. I had respected that group and thought that they were one of groups with some integrity. It appears that I was quite wrong. As Ed said, it is time for new leadership and a new vision for the G.O.P. and for the Conservative movement as a whole. I agree with this wholeheartedly. While I do not know if Sarah Palin is going to be or should be a part of that; but I do know that there is change needed, I mean writing nasty articles about Sarah Palin and then donating to Arline Spector? Especially after he says stuff like this? Something is deathly wrong with the Conservative movement.

As a history buff and someone who’s quite familiar with political history. I see an interesting similarity between what is happening here and the climate in the Democratic Party around the time of the Vietnam War, say around 1968. What I am talking about is the extreme disconnect between the beltway Conservative leadership and movement leaders; and that of the grassroots. In 1968, the grassroots wanted the Vietnam war ended, like right then. The Democratic Leadership felt the war necessary to promote peace.  Toss in the assassinations of Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. and what you had was a mess. That mess, as it were, went on to almost destroy the Democratic Party; and the Democrats were never able to regain the White House till after the Nixon debacle.

Where this fits in with the Conservative movement is this; you have a obvious disconnect between the Beltway Conservative leadership and the Grassroots or as it now called; The New Media “Netroots” of the Conservative movement. You have several movements within the Conservative Grassroots, or Netroots; you have the 9/12 bunch, the Smart Girl Politics bunch, you have the Top Conservatives on Twitter bunch, you have your libertarians; who believe that the Republican Party is now Democratic Party lite and that the Government is evil. You have your Ron Paul crowd, who feel like they were stiffed by the Republican Party leadership and rightly so. There is just no one clear leader or tent. There are several tents, and they all despise one another.

What needs to happen at this point is this; there needs to be a leader, someone that can unite ALL of these tents together under one big tent. Some who can get everyone who is Vis-à-vis Conservative and get them to come together as a movement; sort of like what Reagan did. I mean, Reagan was able to bring together Libertarians; well, some of them anyhow, Social and Fiscal Conservatives, Military people, and Christian Conservatives.

The question is; who will do this? That is something that the Conservative movement and the Republican Party needs to work out —– and very, very soon.

Jacob Weisberg takes a page from Karl Rove's Playbook

As a former Democratic Party voting independent; I thought that the progressives were a bit more smarter than this.

Well, I have been wrong before and it looks like I was wrong again.

Jacob Weisberg channeling his inner Karl Rove Says:

Last week, when White House Communications Director Anita Dunn charged the Fox News Channel with right-wing bias, Fox responded the way it always does. It denied the accusation with a straight face while proceeding to confirm it with its coverage.

Consider Fox’s Web story on the episode. It quotes five people. Two of them work for Fox. All of them assert that administration officials are either wrong in substance or politically foolish to criticize the network. No one is cited supporting Dunn’s criticisms or saying that it could make sense for Obama to challenge the network’s power. It’s a textbook example of a biased journalism.

[….]

What’s most distinctive about the American press is not its freedom but its century-old tradition of independence—that it serves the public interest rather than those of parties, persuasions, or pressure groups. Media independence is a 20th-century innovation that has never fully taken root in many other countries that do have a free press. The Australian-British-continental model of politicized media that Murdoch has applied at Fox is un-American, so much so that he has little choice but go on denying what he’s doing as he does it. For Murdoch, Ailes, and company, “fair and balanced” is a necessary lie. To admit that their coverage is slanted by design would violate the American understanding of the media’s role in democracy and our idea of what constitutes fair play. But it’s a demonstrable deceit that no longer deserves equal time.

As someone who distinctly remembers when the Bush White House, under the control of Karl Rove; said of those who opposed Bush’s decision to go into Iraq, as being unpatriotic and unAmerican —- I find this tripe written by this Socialist writer to be absolutely asinine. Since when does criticizing the polices of a socialist President qualify as Anti-American? Why? Because the President is black? This is coming from the very same group of people who literally were ready to take to the streets and protest because of what the White House said about the protesters and those who opposed Bush. Now that same group of people are now calling The President’s critics Anti-American?

Call it a hunch, but I do believe that this whole arrogance thing is going to blow up in the faces of the Progressives and is going to cause the Democrats to lose big come 2010 and 2012. Americans are just smarter than this and they see this for what it is; blind arrogance.

Living Proof that Socialist Liberals have no originality

What an idiot….

Shepard Fairey, the artist whose “Hope” poster of Barack Obama became an iconic emblem of the presidential campaign, has admitted that he lied about which photograph from The Associated Press he used as his source, and that he then covered up evidence to substantiate his lie.

Mr. Fairey’s admission, which he made public on Friday, threw his legal battle with the news agency into disarray.

The A.P. claimed in January that Mr. Fairey owed it credit and compensation for using the photograph. But in February Mr. Fairey sued The A.P., seeking a declaratory judgment that the poster did not infringe on the agency’s copyrights and that he was entitled to the image under the “fair use” exception of the copyright law. The A.P. countersued in March, saying Mr. Fairey had misappropriated the photograph.

Mr. Fairey told the agency — and his own lawyers — that he had used a photograph from an April 27, 2006, event about Darfur at the National Press Club in Washington where Mr. Obama was seated next to the actor George Clooney. Instead, the photograph he used was from the same event, but was a solo image of Mr. Obama’s head, tilted in intense concentration.

via Artist Admits Using Other Photo for ‘Hope’ Poster – NYTimes.com.

…..and his defense?

“In an attempt to conceal my mistake, I submitted false images and deleted other images,” Mr. Fairey said in a statement, released on his Web site. “I sincerely apologize for my lapse in judgment, and I take full responsibility for my actions, which were mine alone.”

Mr. Fairey’s lawyers said they intended to withdraw when he could find new counsel.

“There are lots of reasons that it becomes difficult or effectively impossible for a lawyer to continue to represent a client in this situation,” Anthony Falzone, Mr. Fairey’s lawyer and the executive director of the Fair Use Project at Stanford University, said in a telephone interview Saturday. “We have informed The A.P.’s lawyers that we do intend to withdraw as counsel upon transition to new lawyers.”

Mr. Falzone called the disclosure “a very unfortunate situation.” But he added that regardless which photograph Mr. Fairey used, the copyright issues remained unchanged. “We still believe, as strongly as ever, in the underlying fair use and expression issues of this case,” he said.

In other words, He lied like a dog; and proceeded to try and cover up for his lies, by lying some more. But he still has a case for fair use! What a joke! Put this lying stack crap behind bars for a few years. That is unless his “Magic Messiah” does not come out and order the courts to drop the suit. Which would not surprise me at all.  After all, he was getting “The One” elected was he not?

Just more living proof that socialist scum have no originality and what they cannot legally use; they steal. Just look at all of the bail-outs of the banks, and auto companies. They were stealing our money to bail out failed businesses. Look at all the property that has been taken by the Government under the “Eminent domain” laws; liberals gave us that nonsense. It means that one day, the Government can say, “we want this property” and they can set you out, and take you property, no questions asked. That is basically legalized theft. Which is basically what this Fairey guy is trying to do. Which is stealing someone else’s property in the name of art.

Ha! Good Luck with that!

Oh this is too funny.

Reverend Al Sharpton and his lawyers say they are preparing to file a defamation lawsuit against conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh for an op-ed published Saturday, which Sharpton alleges “erroneously” characterizes his (Sharpton’s) role in a string of violent incidents in New York in the early 90’s.

In the op-ed published in Saturday’s Wall Street Journal Limbaugh writes Sharpton “played a leading role in the 1991 Crown Heights riot (he called neighborhood Jews ‘diamond merchants’) and 1995 Freddie’s Fashion Mart riot.”

The Crown Heights riot began after a Hasidic Rabbi accidently struck and killed an African American boy with his car. The boy died from the injuries–sparking four nights of riots. The Rabbi was not charged, but Sharpton played a large role in rallying on behalf of the young boy’s family and the African American community.

According to a statement put out by Sharpton’s media consultant, a study New York Governor Mario Cuomo commissioned showed Sharpton was not involved in the Crown Heights incident until after the rioting concluded.

“Mr. Limbaugh’s blatant and defamatory statements regarding the Crown Heights Riots falsely give the impression that Rev. Sharpton was present during the violence that occurred when in reality he had been called in by the family after the violence,” Sharpton’s statement says.

I would give anything to be in that Courtroom, when Al Sharpton and his lawyers get their butts handed to them by the Judge for filing a frivolous lawsuit. Looks like Al Sharpton and his crowd of baffoons can dish it out, but they cannot take it. Which is quite typical of people of their ilk. Besides that; there is evidence that Rush is absolutely right. The evidence is right on, what else? Wikipedia: (H/T JammieWearingFool)

The Crown Heights riot began on August 19, 1991, after a car driven by a Jewish man, and part of a procession led by an unmarked police car, went through an intersection and was struck by another vehicle causing it to veer onto the sidewalk where it accidentally struck and killed a seven-year-old Guyanese boy named Gavin Cato and severely injured his cousin Angela. Witnesses could not agree upon the speed and could not agree whether the light was yellow or red. One of the factors that sparked the riot was the arrival of a private ambulance which, on the orders of a police officer worried for the Jewish driver’s safety, removed the uninjured driver from the scene while Cato lay pinned under his car.[42] Cato and his cousin were treated soon after by a city ambulance. Caribbean-American and African-American residents of the neighborhood rioted for four consecutive days fueled by rumors that the private ambulance had refused to treat Cato.[38][42] During the riot blacks looted stores,[42] beat Jews in the street,[42] and clashed with groups of Jews, hurling rocks and bottles at one another [43] after Yankel Rosenbaum, a visiting student from Australia, was stabbed and killed by a member of a mob shouting “Kill the Jew.”[44] Sharpton, who arranged a rally in Crown Heights after Cato’s death,[42] has been seen by some commentators as inflaming tensions by making remarks that included “If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over to my house”[45] and referring to Jews as “diamond merchants.”[46]

Sharpton marched through Crown Heights and in front of “770”, shortly after the riot, with about 400 protesters (who chanted “Whose streets? Our streets!” and “No justice, no peace!”), in spite of Mayor David Dinkins’s attempts to keep the march from happening.[47]

And what about this here, Al?

In 1995, a black Pentecostal Church, the United House of Prayer, which owned a retail property on 125th Street, asked Fred Harari, a Jewish tenant who operated Freddie’s Fashion Mart, to evict his longtime subtenant, a black-owned record store called The Record Shack. Sharpton led a protest in Harlem against the planned eviction of The Record Shack.[48][49][50] Sharpton told the protesters, “We will not stand by and allow them to move this brother so that some white interloper can expand his business.”[51]

On December 8, 1995, Roland J. Smith Jr., one of the protesters, entered Harari’s store with a gun and flammable liquid, shot several customers and set the store on fire. The gunman fatally shot himself, and seven store employees died of smoke inhalation.[52][53] Fire Department officials discovered that the store’s sprinkler had been shut down, in violation of the local fire code.[54] Sharpton claimed that the perpetrator was an open critic of himself and his nonviolent tactics. Sharpton later expressed regret for making the racial remark, “white interloper,” and denied responsibility for inflaming or provoking the violence.[13][55]

It is amazing how the Liberals, when cornered; like to lash out, accuse people of lying. But you can find the truth about them. All you have to do, is use the very tool created by them, to find the truth.

Rush Limbaugh speaks out on the N.F.L. Controversy

Rush Limbaugh gets the last word:

As I explained on my radio show, this spectacle is bigger than I am on several levels. There is a contempt in the news business, including the sportswriter community, for conservatives that reflects the blind hatred espoused by Messrs. Sharpton and Jackson. “Racism” is too often their sledgehammer. And it is being used to try to keep citizens who don’t share the left’s agenda from participating in the full array of opportunities this nation otherwise affords each of us. It was on display many years ago in an effort to smear Clarence Thomas with racist stereotypes and keep him off the Supreme Court. More recently, it was employed against patriotic citizens who attended town-hall meetings and tea-party protests.

These intimidation tactics are working and spreading, and they are a cancer on our society.

via Rush Limbaugh: The Race Card, Football and Me – WSJ.com.

Personally, I have tried to avoid writing about this controversy; because quite frankly, I found it all to be a bit absurd. However, it is fitting to note, that the left has always engaged in this sort of politically correct McCarthyism since about the 1960’s. To be fair and balanced, Rush did make a comment back in the 1970’s; that was totally and wildly inappropriate, when he told a black caller, who was having trouble hearing him or understanding him, to call him back, when he got the bone out of his nose. That was totally racist and should have gotten him fired. However, Rush did express regret for making the comment.  Further more, Rush state that he felt a particular player to be totally overrated; because in his words, “people always want to see a African-American succeed.” Many people felt that to be racist, but Rush was simply expressing his opinion.  Which, last time I checked, was not a Federal crime in this Country of ours.

Some Conservative Bloggers are not taking the news of Rush getting dumped well at all. Jack Moss, who runs Macsmind is pulling out all the stops:

I love the game of football too, but today I walked every bit of NFL gear out to the dumpster and tossed it. Additionally my participation is more than nominal – I will not mention to the extent – but I’m canceling that as well. But I can’t do it on my own.

I’m calling for conservative bloggers everywhere to follow suit. Rush listeners called in droves this week talking about canceling season tickets, and NFL packages on cable and dish TV.

The NFL is in a crunch right now trying to squeak out dollars everywhere. This is the time to hit them, when they are down and get the message to them loud and clear that we are not going to tolerate this discrimination against conservatives.

Pass the word, do your duty conservatives.

While I admire Jack’s courage and taking of this issue very seriously. I think he might be going overboard, just a tiny bit. Me personally, I never have been a huge football fan. To be quote honest; I find football hopelessly and extremely boring. I just do not understand the entertainment value of watching mostly African-American, steroid laden men, running up and down a field chasing a ball and beating each other senseless to get control of said ball. It must be in my wiring; because quite frankly, I just do not get it at all. Baseball; that is another story. Hit the ball, head for the bases and hope like hell that the outfielders cannot catch. That I get, but football — I just do not get the concept. Nor do I care to. To me it seems to be a bit of a base sport, that requires muscles and not much brains; which possibly explains why many African-Americans play it. 😯 😮 Did I say that? 😯

Liberals now calling Glenn Back and Limbaugh Fascist Stooges

First the video:

The Story via the MRC’s CMI:

Ever since CNN HLN’s “Joy Behar Show” has splashed on the scene, it has become little more than a show dedicated to bashing conservative, specifically former CNN HLN host, now Fox News host Glenn Beck.

The Oct. 15 broadcast of host Joy Behar’s show was no different. First it tackled the issues of the day, like Arianna Huffington’s take on whether or not Vice President Joe Biden should resign based on what President Barack Obama does in Afghanistan. Then Behar and her two guests, actor and left-wing activist Richard Belzer and New York Daily News Columnist Liz Benjamin discussed Rush Limbaugh’s failed effort to buy a stake in the NFL’s St. Louis Rams and the feud between Fox News and the White House.

Behar made suggestion Limbaugh represents himself as someone who is not “in the mainstream” because he argued on his Oct. 14 show the backlash was in part generated by liberal activists threatened by the notion Limbaugh could be considered to be in the mainstream. That notion was one which Belzer lashed out at and called Limbaugh and Fox News host Glenn Beck “fascist stooges” (emphasis added):

Behar: Isn’t Rush Limbaugh in the mainstream? He acts like he’s not.

Belzer: This whole thing of conservatives saying they’re not in the mainstream, you know, as we all know, it’s the biggest crock. They have the courts, they had the presidency, they had the Congress, they have their own network.

Behar: But he’s not a politician. I guess that’s what he means – he’s just a radio – just like Glenn Beck they’re kind of like on the sidelines provoking and provoking.

Belzer: They’re fascist stooges who in the true sense of that word, that’s not hyperbole…

Benjamin: But why should he not own a team?

Behar: They don’t want him.

Belzer: Well, because other businessmen…

Hmmmm, if Back and Limbaugh are fascist stooges, would that not make Obama and his Administration communist stooges?

Seriously, is this the best that the left has? I mean, just because a major network; that just happens, not to be drinking the kool-aid and happens to be critical of the President and his policies; that is automatically a qualifier for being labeled a fascist? How absurd. This is another one of those “Last Resort” cards that is being played by the Democrats. First, it was racism; every time a Republican or a Conservative criticized the President, the Democrats cried race, now it is the fascism card. Good Lord. 🙄

For the record, Glenn Back has a very valid point, The White House communications director is a fan of Mao. I mean, here is the video: (H/T HotAir)

So, pointing this fact out; is fascism? I think the liberal left needs to do a serious study into what exactly fascism truly is. Because I have news for them; pointing out facts, is journalism and if this President Administration cannot handle that, then they need to resign. It is very ironic though, that the very same party, that criticized Bush during his term in office and literally almost had a stroke, when some Conservatives accused them of being anti-American for their questioning of the President; are now playing the fascism and race card against those who dare to criticize the new President and his domestic and foreign policies, and the his so-far tepid handling of the war in Afghanistan.

But then again, we are talking about god-less and quite frankly; brain-less Liberals.
