More Radicalizing of Higher Education Ahead

More Radicalizing of Higher Education Ahead

Education is where the liberal-progressive-socialists love to concentrate because they know that they can indoctrinate the young, impressionable minds of children much easier than mature adults. Plus, if they actually educate our children, instead of indoctrinating them, they will be thinking adults and unlikely to swallow the leftist ideals of the Democrats.

American Thinker: The Left's End Times

American Thinker: The Left's End Times

It's no secret that the left despises the success of America. The guilt they feel at being lucky enough to be born in a nation where everything, including liberty, is palpable, yet instead of exporting liberty and equality to the rest of the world and encouraging them to develop, they want to tear down America so that it is equal to the poorest of the poor. Their rational for this "justice" is that America became what it is on the backs of the Third World which is a total falsehood. America became successful because we threw-off the chains of despotism and made government responsible to the people. In the rest of the world, the opposite was, and is, true, which accounts for the difference between America and the rest of the world.

The liberal-progressive-socialists do not like prosperity for all even though that is often in their campaign speeches. They prefer to keep the people, the proletariat, under the stern hand of the government with tight controls on who will prosper and who will labor. By doing this, they say, they can ensure that there is enough for all. More for them, of course, and less for others but that is appropriate because they are the ruling, political elite.

How Wikipedia is Being Co-opted to Support Global Warming Fraud

This is a very interesting article on the insidious manner in which the Global Warming Mafia have tried to alter history to support their fraudulent theory.  Most serious thinkers brush over Wikipedia stopping to use it only when it shows sources that they can go directly to and read first hand.  But for light information it is sometimes interesting.  You always have to keep in mind, however, that there is little that can be done to ensure that the information is accurate and without prejudice emanating from the author/editor.

Clearly these "experts" have seized on this vulnerability in hopes of infecting more young readers with their fraudulent faux-science.

Follow the link for some good information on how they've been using Wikipedia to further their scheme.

On Coffee

I've been a regular coffee drinker since the 60's.  I like it black and have been known to finish a full pot in a day.  But I'm the only true coffee drinker on my branch of the family tree.  One son drinks a cup of "New York style" (half-and-half with sugar) coffee in the morning but that's it.

My favorite is Jamaican Blue Mountain.  Extremely expensive for a pound of beans--I like to grind the beans myself--but absolute heaven to drink in the morning, at noon and at night.  My wife, who doesn't drink any coffee, is astounded that I can have a nice cup of coffee and go to bed for a good night's sleep.

I don't buy coffee at commercial establishments like Starbucks.  Those are, in my estimation, overpriced and usually not made very well.

So follow the link for an excellent essay on coffee.  It tastes good and is good for you.

The Liberal Plot against American Education

Liberals are the bane of the school system and, if left alone, will destroy education in America.

The proof of this is the growing homeschool movement in America. Many parents do not want to turn their children over to liberal idiots who are unfit to teach because they only teach how to feel good and not how to learn.

FOXNews.com - Napolitano Acknowledges Security Failed in Allowing Terror Suspect on Plane

FOXNews.com - Napolitano Acknowledges Security Failed in Allowing Terror Suspect on Plane

There is an old saying:  "Given enough fools and time no system is foolproof."  Unfortunately it appears that the fools are now in leadership positions and were appointed there by the White House.

Clearly things went wrong but the question is why?  We know that someone on the "no-fly" list is not supposed to be able to get on a plane to the United States or one that even passes through U.S. airspace.  We know that in this particular instance, the father of the Muslim terrorist reported him to the American Embassy in Nigeria.  So what went wrong?

The answer is very simple:  Leadership.  We have no leader.  What we have is a liberal-progressive-socialist who is bent on making America the "Norway" of the Americas.  He is an abject failure in motivating his appointees to really protect America.  Instead, they are operating on the premise that everything President Bush did was wrong and they are trying to  implement changes that either don't work or send the wrong message to the public and the enemy.

Flight security stiffened after failed plot - Washington Times

Flight security stiffened after failed plot - Washington Times

The problem lies not with TSA (responsible for screening the flights if they originate from the US, but not from Europe) or the Federal Air Marshal Service (responsible for in-flight security), but with, and solely with, the Obama Administration.

Even before he took office, President Obama indicated a clear goal of ratcheting down the security apparatus of the United States from the wartime basis that had been the standard during the Bush Administration to something more similar to the "law enforcement basis" that was the rule in the Clinton Administration. In true liberal-progressive-socialist fashion, the White House followed through with this goal by making simple changes in the tenor and tone of the language used. Instead of a “War on Terror” it became a “man caused disaster.” By a change in the language used the White House effectively signaled that the United States was dropping it’s guard and hoping to stop fighting all together. This was reinforced when President Obama made statements that the United States was a “Muslim nation” just as were those in the Middle East and Asia. Of course, nothing could be further from the truth but this was perceived by the Islamo-fascists of the world as a crack--a weakness, if you will--in the American resolve to resist Islam so they doubled their own resolve to step-up the attacks in hopes of turning the crack into total victory. This hope of their’s was, of course, just as false as President Obama’s hope to use “words, just words” to stop their war on all “kafir.” They can no more defeat the people of the United States than President Obama can re-cast the United States as a Muslim nation.

The story also mentions a shortage of funds within the Federal Air Marshal Service but gets it totally wrong. The cost of the tickets is not an issue as the writer--let alone his unnamed DHS "source"--would have known if he'd done even a modicum of research. The law covering civil aviation security requires the airlines to provide the seats to the government at no cost. If cost were an issue then it would have to be because of cuts in the budget of the Federal Air Marshal Service by DHS itself, most specifically the cost that must be spent on support of the Federal Air Marshal's when they travel. It is a common practice in the government--more common than the public suspects-- for changes in budgets to be made at Secretary Janet Napolitano's level than anywhere else. Congress should and will enquire, I am sure, if this was the case. If it is, chalk it up to the message emanating from the White House that despite the horrendous attack on our soil on 9/11 we are not at war with an enemy that is surely at war with us.

Hopefully, President Obama will soon learn the hard lesson that the world is far different than what was portrayed to him by his liberal-progressive-socialist mentors. It is far more dangerous and far less forgiving. If he does not learn this, and very soon, then we are in for a very rough 3 years until we can tell him to pack his bags and go on the speak-for-pay tour like his Democrat/socialist predecessor, Bill Clinton.

American Thinker: Seniors are America's new Jews

An interesting view considering the Democrats headlong rush into seizing health care from the private sector at all costs.

Easy: Easy money from the government and AARP sold out.

Court-Martial of the Navy SEALS

They are going to court martial three brave men. I'm opposed to the court martial for the reasons that have been stated in the press; but I don't know the full story. Given, however, that the scum they captured only got a fat lip--and no evidence has been presented to show that he got more than that--then a reasonable man would say that a court martial is considerably more than is called for in this situation. And who is to say that Ahmed Hashim Abed, a trained terrorist leader, is telling the truth especially since it is known that the accusation he makes is right out of the al Qaeda training manual.

No, I don't believe that a court martial is called for at all. They did their job and did it well. They weren't operating in a domestic law enforcement situation and shouldn't be held to that standard at all.

Woman Fatally Stabs Thug Who Attacked Her

A clear case of self-defense.

This incident actually makes the case for an armed citizenry. The attack on the woman started on the street above the subway. The men, 7 or 8 according to witnesses, followed the woman into the subway, drug her off a train and started to take her up the stairs. She stabbed on in the chest then outran the others to make her escape on another train.

There were no police who saw any of this in one of the most heavily policed cities in America. Clearly there was no chance that the crime against her person (assault with a follow-up of possible rape, robbery or even murder) would be able to be prevented by the police. She was being taken against her will with no help in sight. So she defended herself.

There are those who will say that no one should carry a weapon. I'm sure that this Christmas morning there is a woman in New York who is extremely glad she's alive to see the sun rise. And she is alive because she had a weapon.

Democrats, with their elitist attitude, do not care about the desires of the citizenry nor do they pretend to represent the citizenry.  They believe that once they make Obamacare a law that, like sheep, Americans will quietly accept the nanny-state socialism that they have planned.  And just to ensure that, as part of the Senate's bill, there is a provision stating that future congresses may not repeal the heart of the bill.  They want to make it a permanent entitlement program with which they will be able to expand government and gain more control over the people.  In their minds, it is the government that must be in charge because the people can not be relied upon to do what they believe is the "right thing."

In Our Family, We say "Merry Christmas"

Pagan Propaganda: The Other Attack on Christmas

This is an accurate and well-written rebuttal of the secular myths that have been propagated by the Grinches at the ACLU and in other liberal-progressive-socialist circles. Christmas is a Christian holiday. That is plain and simple. It is not the off-shoot of a pagan holiday or any other such nonsense. It is a Christian holiday.

To keep Christian icons and decorations out of Christmas is as idiotic as keeping Islamic references out of Ramadan or Jewish decorations out of Hanukkah. But the secularists want to do that and attack Christian symbols at every turn. Unfortunately, some in government have the spines of jelly fish and bow to these secular idiots. They should not. The United States was founded on Christian principles and that the history on that is clear. I know there are some who deliberately ignore that history but they don't do so out of intellectual honesty rather out of a personal bias that allows them to be smugly intellectually dishonest. I pity them.

We must, however, realize that those who attack Christians who celebrate this specific holiday do Christians a great favor. By their verbal attacks on Christians who are unflinchingly demonstrating their faith at this holy time they unwittingly bless those Christians in the eyes of the Lord our God. The devil has never been able to understand this and revels in insulting those who follow the teachings of Jesus Christ. Satan wins only when Christians become timid or ashamed of their celebration of the birth of Christ. Christians win when they continue to celebrate despite the braying annoyance of asinine kibitzers standing outside the light of the Christmas tree.

So celebrate this holiday with love in your hearts toward all mankind...even liberal-progressive socialists, for those who haven't seen the light won't be led to it if they are shunned.

Big PhRMA Payoff: Hidden Tax on Pedialyte, Prenatal Vitamins, and Pain Relievers

Can you believe the twisted logic that we have in Washington, DC? These people are absolute idiots who can only think "tax and spend." They don't care who it hurts but will, of course, announce to the world that they are helping "those in need." Just who "those in need" are is a very good question. The War on Poverty was declared by Democrats under Lyndon Baines Johnson and we haven't reduced the number of poor or the number on welfare since.

Democrats need to be held responsible for this in November. None should return to office.

They Counted the Money Twice

It seems that the CBO finally pointed out that both Harry Reid and Barack Obama counted the Medicare money twice...or was it that they spent it before they counted it?  At any rate, as we've pointed out all along, the bill is a fiscal fraud but the Democrats are going to shove it down the throats of a citizenry that doesn't want it because, by golly, the Democrats are in charge and they'll do what they want regardless of what the majority of the people want.

Sean Hannity said it best, "Elections have consequences."

This "fix" of health care will end up being a very bitter pill for America.

American Thinker: Why the 'Angry Mob' Is Angry

American Thinker: Why the 'Angry Mob' Is Angry

I agree. I am angry with the way the Democrats have studiously ignored the will of the people and proceeded to take our country in a direction that the people do not like. In their view, we will begin to like what they are doing once we've had a chance to get used to the idea and understand what they are doing. Think about that for a moment: "Once we get used to the idea and understand what they are doing."

Having grown up on a cattle ranch and farming operation in southern Idaho, I performed all the cowboy jobs my dad gave me. And every spring we gathered the cattle and herded them into the corral--where they most assuredly did not want to go--and we separated the calves from their mothers. Now, those mama cows and calves did not like being separated. They protested, ran, dodged and ducked, but with sweat, effort and good cow ponies we got it done. We put the calves into a smaller holding pen where we could run them through a chute and brand and castrate them. As they were already separated they were mostly calm except for vocal protestations answered by their mothers on the other side of the fence. And as we pushed them into the chute they sometimes kicked a little but mostly they went willingly.

What I have just described is what the Democrat leadership means when it says, "once we get used to the idea and understand what they are doing we will like it." We all know what came next for those calves. They were branded with a hot iron, castrated if they were male and had their ears notched. I guarantee you none of them liked it. But the Democrats insist on treating the citizenry like they were dumb cattle just waiting to be sorted, branded and castrated. In this, however, they've acted less like cowboys than rustlers and outlaws. And you can bet that we Americans do not like it. Not at all.

So am I mad? Are Americans mad? Absolutely! And we're not about to forget what the Democrats have done and want to do. They--the Washington elite--forgot the one cardinal rule of American politics: The people are supreme. Not the president, the speaker or the majority leader, but the people. The Democrats seem to think that their wins in the last two elections gave them the right to do as they wish with America. They have totally forgotten that despite those wins, they must represent the majority will of the people. Not the will of the President or the House or Senate majority, but the will of the people.

They shall be reminded about that in the coming elections.

Daily Presidential Tracking Poll

Daily Presidential Tracking Poll

President Obama as the Obamessiah is clearly no more.

It is sad that, despite the promise of his presidency to end partisan politics, open the political process with more transparency and to have a post-racial American nothing of substance in those areas has occurred. What might have been shall not be for, unfortunately but not surprisingly, he took the path of the leftist ideologue and promoter of the Chicago Way.

There were those of us who, although we did not vote for him, hoped at least that we were wrong in our judgment of his character and goals based on his long established ties to the Marxist left. We're probably some of the same people who still believe in the Santa Clause who still hasn't brought me my Red Ryder BB gun that I asked for in 1957.

He fails to mention that his vote raises taxes on us all. He fails to mention the $2.5 Trillion cost of the bill (the Democrats love to keep chanting "$871 Billion" which has been exposed as an outright lie by the CBO).

He fails to mention that he is exaggerating to the point of lying when he says that Virginia businesses will "continue to see double-digit premium increases every year" or that "Virginia families could see up to 40% of their take-home pay consumed by health care expenses by the year 2016."

Actually, on the last one, it has as much validity as saying that you will win the Mega Lotto by 2016. Of course, we "could" see such an increase but that's probably less likely than winning the lottery's grand prize. And this bill won't address the causes of the problems in health care. It goes exactly in the wrong direction.

The Rotting Fruit of Multiculturalism

Multiculturalism is an invention of the liberal-progressive-socialists, the left, that targets the American culture in an attempt to force it to accept other cultures on an equal basis under the erroneous belief that all cultures are equal. If we look at the world around us we know that is simply not true. All cultures are not equal nor should they be viewed as such. It is enough to view them as unique. Nothing more, nothing less. But they are definitely not equal.

The proof of this is in the pudding, so to speak. The United States is only a little over 200 years old and there are many cultures in the world much older. None, however, provide the freedoms that the United States offers. None provides the same quality of life or standard of living that the United States has. The poor in the United States, the American culture, are many times wealthier than the poor in other cultures but it is true that by comparison they are still "poor" by American cultural standards. The difference between American poor and the poor of the rest of the world is that in the American culture they can, by the dint of their own excellence, become rich and achieve their dreams.

No where else in the world is that as true as in America.

Which explains the long lines of people waiting to apply for visas in front of American Consulates around the world.

Multiculturalism is a disease that is aimed at destroying the American culture. It was developed by those who wish to destroy America because they view it as an aberration, an assault, on the failed cultures in the rest of the world. Imagine what would happen if the American culture were to be spread? No more would the super-rich in other countries be able to have a steady supply of servants who became servants because there was no where else for them to work. No longer would the super-rich in other parts of the world be able to keep the rabble away from their neighborhoods because they would truly be equal. No longer would the super-rich in other parts of the world be able to keep their harems and mistresses because those young women would have other alternatives in life.

Multiculturalism is the disease and political correctness is its' most poisonous ally. Political correctness inhibits the free flow of ideas and conversations. Political correctness provides cover for the march of multiculturalism as it seeks to snuff out the exceptionalism that America has to offer. Both must be rejected if we are to maintain the true diversity of ideas that make up the American culture.

Bolling Urges Warner and Webb to Not Support Health Care Reform

Bolling Urges Warner and Webb to Not Support Health Care Reform

Lt Governor Bolling's letter was no stronger than my own, two of which are below.

December 19, 2009

Dear Sir:

I urge you to vote ‘NAY’ on the vote for cloture for the Senate Health Care bill. You cannot, in good conscience, pass a bill that has so many flaws, raises taxes on all sectors of society, punishes senior citizens with reductions in Medicare and sets up rationing for medical services.

The bill will not even provide any benefits until 2013 yet the taxes start immediately. This bit of fiscal fraud was constructed so that the medical malpractice that is being foisted on the American people won’t start coming to light until after the next Presidential election.

The bill cuts Medicaid which will immediately and effectively ration health care for senior citizens.

To vote for this bill is to slap the people of the Commonwealth of Virginia and the United States in the face. We do not want the government involved in health care. It is NOT a “fact” that our health care system is financially unsupportable and when that is said, it is an unsupportable lie. And to say that this bill will solve the problems in the medical system is another lie.

Until this issue came up under this Administration I was never politically active but that has now changed. If you vote for this legislation I will do everything I can to ensure your defeat in the next election you face for you will have shown yourself to be the enemy of the people. I will post signs for your opponent. Raise money for your opponent and speak out against you in person, letters and the internet. If you vote ‘YEA’ there is no legislation that you can pass or pork barrel that you can bring home to Virginia that will be able to overcome this singular vote. And from talking to my neighbors and friends, they feel the same way. This is not a threat, Sir. It is a fact.

Vote ‘NAY’ on cloture and vote ‘NAY’ on this health bill.


AND

December 20, 2009

Dear Sir:

I must insist that you vote ‘NAY’ on cloture when that comes up to a vote in the Senate. A ‘YEA’ vote is totally unacceptable.

If you vote to allow cloture on the debate, the bill will pass. You know that and the citizens of Virginia know that. You must put the people before your party and vote ‘NAY’ to the motion for cloture.

If this bill passes it will raise taxes on everyone. Health care costs will rise and the problems in health care will not be solved by the creation of another federal bureaucracy.

This bill will add to the deficit and send the United States into bankruptcy. You must vote ‘NAY’ despite any assurances that you have given to Senator Reid. The people of Virginia in overwhelming numbers demand it.

This is a make or break vote. If you do not vote for the people, you will be removed from office not later than the next election in which you must stand. We will not forget who sent us down the road to socialism.

Stop this bill from proceeding!


Clearly neither Senator Warner (a liberal-progressive-socialist with no redeeming political values) and Senator Webb (a liberal-progressive-socialist with few redeeming political values) paid any attention to my letters. I don't feel bad about that because they didn't pay any attention to the overwhelming majority of Virginians who don't want the government involved in health care.

We won't be safe until politicians like these are removed from office.

FOXNews.com - Civil Rights Panel Subpoenas Justice Department in New Black Panthers Case

The Department of Justice continues to refuse to cooperate with the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights as it investigates the dismissal of one of the worst cases of voter intimidation ever caught on camera. The case was initially prosecuted by career federal prosecutors and won; but the Office of the Attorney General inexplicably directed the case be withdrawn before the defendants were sentenced.

The explanation for this is, actually, quite simple. Attorney General Eric Holder practices the Chicago Way which dictates that he protect through any means possible any thuggery that is done on behalf of his boss, President Barack H. Obama. Now he is obstructing the investigation into his own malfeasance by ordering the Assistant U.S. Attorneys who handled the case to ignore the subpoenas issued by the Commission. In doing this he is, in my opinion, either incompetent, criminal or both and deserves to be impeached and removed from office in shame.

Considering the make-up of the House and Senate, impeachment is extremely unlikely at present. Come November 2010 that will change.

AARP Continues to Sell Out Its' Members

I am very happy that I threw away all the AARP enticements that were mailed almost monthly to me once I hit 55. There was something that struck me as wrong about an organization that promised some small discounts at restaurants and hotels but then seemed to advocate positions that were not in the best interests of the elderly.

Now it turns out that AARP, which supports Obamacare, is fully in the back-pocket of the Democrats. It is revealed for the disgusting organization that it is in taking advantage of senior citizens across the land.

The Swiss Continue Their Tradition

Liberal-progressive-socialists hate guns. The private possession of weapons poses a serious threat to their dreams of hegemony over all Americans for they realize the absolute truth that the most significant difference between free men and slaves is the possession of arms.

The Swiss have been free for centuries and have one of the lowest crime rates in the world. It is a beautiful country with it's snowy mountains and picturesque lakes. It's population also has more guns, per capita, than Americans because the government issues them gasp! assault rifles and a basic load of ammunition to keep at home.

It's all based on their concept of a very small standing army complimented by an reserve force of civilian soldiers who are trained, armed and ready for duty at very short notice. True, the topography of Switzerland allows this type of defense posture but the amazing thing is that the government of Switzerland trusts its' citizens with the arms and the citizens trust their government.

And the crime rate, as I indicated is very low. This could be because the unemployment rate is very high and the Swiss do not coddle the unemployed in that they don't let people be comfortable in their poverty. But it could also be because every household is armed thus not a very good target for crime.

Does it surprise you that if they pass Obamacare you will start paying taxes immediately on January 1 but no actual care will be provided until the 2013-14 timeframe?

Does it surprise you that they did this in hopes that they could sell us something they know greatly upset us when it is actually delivered and we see how bad it is without affecting the elections in 2010 and 2012?

The Battleground Poll and the Battle for America

The Battleground Poll and the Battle for America

We are in the midst of a Conservative resurgence that is unlike anything that has ever occurred in American politics. It is based on a deep-seated anger over the very accurate perception that the President, the House and the Senate are studiously ignoring the will of the people.

Liberal-progressive-socialists do not govern from the center. They campaign from the center but they govern from the far left and that is not where the majority of Americans sit. Americans are now discovering, to their great dismay, that the man they elected, a man who studiously ran from the center and portrayed himself as a moderate is, in truth, a liberal-progressive-socialist bent on changing America into a socialist state. His poll numbers have declined more in his first year in office than any president in history and he is rapidly on track to eclipse Jimmy Carter as the worst president ever. That is something which, I am sure, provides solace to the increasingly erratic Carter.

The problem with President Obama is not the color of his skin because the election proved that American's, unlike the rest of the world, are, after a long and difficult struggle, beyond the petty, ignorant racial prejudices that still prevail elsewhere. No, it is the color of Obama's politics that is disturbing to America and Americans. We are not about to become the socialist paradise that he and his associates on the far left dream of when they sleep at night. President Obama's latest announcement that the failure of the Health Care bill will lead to the bankruptcy of America is evidence of his panic and growing realization that we are not a nation of sheep to be led to the slaughter. Rather we shall fight to preserve our freedom and the freedom of our children.

There is one thing of which we are absolutely certain: Not enacting Obamacare will not cause American to go bankrupt. Enacting it will.

Who Needs Data?

Who Needs Data?

Who needs facts when you believe!

And facts will not dissuade the believers in Copenhagen.

That's because it's not about Global Warming or Climate Change. It's about money from the American Treasury. It's about making America feel guilty for being successful. It's about tearing America down so that the near-do-wells of the world can sneer and say, "See? I told you America wasn't so great!"

I will predict that what Obama agrees to in Copenhagen will be reversed after 2012. America will not elect again a President who feels that America owes the world a living.

Wolf presses for new Black Panther probe - Washington Times

Wolf presses for new Black Panther probe - Washington Times

Eric Holder is incompetent and has corrupted the Justice Department by politicizing the process by which cases are prosecuted. In the case of the New Black Panther Party, he caused the dismissal of the case after the case was won and just prior to the judge passing sentence. Why would the Attorney General's Office in Washington, DC, do that when such issues are normally left to the U.S. Attorney and the prosecutors in the district where the crime occurred?

It's very simple, actually.

The New Black Panther Party was one of the first groups to support Barack Obama when he announced his run for the presidency.

The New Black Panther Party espouses the same political dogma as the White House.

The New Black Panther Party is made up of members that are useful 'foot soldiers' for Obama in the future.

The New Black Panther Party is made up of blacks and "social justice" demands they be treated differently.

The New Black Panther Party was supporting the winner of the election and in the Chicago Way, they get a pass on everything they did to help Obama win.

It is doubtful that the Democrats will fully support Congressman Wolf but we can hope that they are too embarrassed to let the refusal of Eric Holder to respond to numerous Congressional inquiries pass. We can hope.

Maybe that's what his campaign slogan actually meant: The people can hope that the right thing is done while he changes the rules to favor his friends.

Follow the link.

In the meantime remember this: Eric Holder has politicized the Office of the Attorney General more than any Attorney General in the history of the United States. He is an ideologue who is using his office to promote the political agenda of his patron and has shown, by his inability to legally justify his decisions or the legal history behind those decisions, that he is incompetent and unfit for the position in which he serves. He should step down or be impeached.

The Weather Socialists

It has been abundantly clear for sometime now that the meeting in Copenhagen is not actually about the climate but about the redistribution of the wealth of the West to the kleptocrats of the Third World. This point could not have been made clearer than in the thunderous applause to the statement by Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez that the blame for all problems was capitalism in one breath and the call for money from the capitalist countries in the next.

That sort of talk is expected of Chavez and his ilk but what is depressing is the response of the Obama Administration. Once again they go hat-in-hand to beg the world for forgiveness. The truth is, there is nothing to forgive. America has given more to the rest of the world than any other country in the history of the world.

Walpin-Gate Suit Has New Motion - Water Cooler - Washington Times

Walpin-Gate Suit Has New Motion - Water Cooler - Washington Times

It would appear that there is an obstruction of justice case in the offing as a result of the Chicago Way being used in the Walpin matter. What is most interesting is that this case has direct ties to First Lady Michelle Obama and thus to the President.

In case you've missed the previous reports on this matter, the case involves the summary dismissal of AmeriCorps Inspector General Gerald Walpin by the White House without the required 30-day notice to Congress. (It should be noted that then Senator Barack Obama in one of his rare appearances in the Senate voted in favor of the law requiring the notice to Congress.) The firing occurred after Walpin began investigating the mayor of Sacramento, Kevin Johnson, a former professional basketball player and a self-declared friend of and an early and strong political supporter of Barack and Michelle Obama. The investigation was over the misuse of AmeriCorps funds by the mayor for personal expenses rather than for its' intended purpose.

Just Because: Analyzing the Psychology of Palin-Hate -- Opinion Central -- GOPUSA

This is a thoughtful analysis of the liberal-progressive-socialist hatred of Sarah Palin (which is known as Palin Derangement Syndrome or PDS).

My analysis is much shorter. Liberal-progressive-socialists hate Sarah Palin because they see how the American people react to her and it engenders abject fear. Fear that strikes deep into their liberal-progressive-socialist hearts with the realization that there stands a woman who has rejected their dogma, is successful and has leadership ability, and who could destroy all their plans for the continued domination and eventual restructuring of America into their perfect Godless, socialist paradise.

Margaret Thatcher was hated in the same way.

FOXNews.com - White House Wades Into Terror Intel Dispute Between FBI, Homeland Security

FOXNews.com - White House Wades Into Terror Intel Dispute Between FBI, Homeland Security

Over 30 years ago when I joined the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), narcotics work was done in much the same fashion as the FBI does its' terrorism investigations. The standard procedure was to keep all your cards close to your chest so that no one but your partner and your supervisor knew what you were doing until the last possible minute. The rationale for this was, of course, that we couldn't be sure who to trust because of the amount of corruption that narcotics investigations engendered.

The real reason, of course, was that we didn't want someone else jumping in and arresting the target that we were working on. By "someone" we meant the FBI, U.S. Customs, State and Local law enforcement and even our fellow DEA agents. Secrecy was important more because we wanted to advance our own careers and ensure that DEA got the credit than because of the specter of corruption or the possibility that information might accidentally get back to a target.

As DEA matured as an agency, and we as the operators on the ground, we were faced with an amazing revelation: We made better, larger and more sophisticated cases when we were cooperating with other agencies. That’s not to say that there were some really excellent cases made that were purely DEA for there were. But by cooperation we were able to bring in more pieces of the puzzle and operate more effectively. By the time I left DEA, cooperation was the hallmark of the agency. Working in and leading Task Force operations was the most cost efficient and effective way to do drug investigations. I know because I led a combined Federal, State and Local Task Force in the late 80’s in Laredo, Texas. It was highly effective because all information was shared fully and completely.

The FBI, while a mature and reasonably effective agency, has always jealously guarded its’ investigations just as DEA did in the early years. They have never changed because the FBI’s culture is one of the strongest of all law enforcement agencies when it comes to its’ opinion of itself. Therein lies the problem and they are unlikely to change because their culture prevents them from totally trusting other law enforcement agencies and sharing information openly. The only way they will change is if they are dragged, kicking and screaming, into the arena of information sharing and made to stay there.

It won’t be an easy process but it is a necessary one. The FBI needs to realize that they are not the only cops on the block and accept that other agencies can do the job as well and sometimes even better. To fight terrorism effectively we must share the information across the board. It worked in narcotics investigations. It will work in terrorism investigations.

Slavery and the healthcare debate

Slavery and the healthcare debate

A well-thought out piece on the health care debate. There is no question that Harry Reid's asinine comparison of the Republican Party to those that wanted to perpetuate slavery in the 1860's and 1960's was wrong. It was the Democrats to actually did those things and it is the Democrats who continue to practice the fine art of economic enslavement whereby large segments of the population are dependent on the government for their sustenance and therefore votes only for the party that promotes increases in their welfare. That party is, of course, the Democrats.

Government by decree is a dictatorship. It is as simple as that. That the President believes that he can use decrees to govern is an error of monumental proportions and cannot be condoned by the Congress, the Supreme Court or the people who wield the ultimate power.
