Gina Loudon, Ph.D., is host of “Smart Life with Dr. Gina” on Money Biz Life Network. She has appeared or been cited by the BBC, ABC, Vanity Fair, Al Jazeera, Huffington Post, CNN, New York Times, Time magazine, Fox News, Fox Business, The Hill, “The Daily Show” with Jon Stewart and many others. Loudon’s new book, “What Women REALLY Want,” co-authored with her fellow Politichicks anchors, will be released later this year. She is credited as one of the “100 founding members” of the tea-party movement, founder of Arizona BUYcott, and originator of the field of policology – the nexus of politics and psychology. Loudon is also the co-author of “Ladies and Gentlemen: Why the Survival of Our Republic Depends on the Revival of Honor.”

See more about Dr. Gina at the end of this article.

Feb. 27 marked the five-year anniversary of the birth of the tea party. March 1 marked the two-year anniversary of the death of a patriot in that movement, Andrew Breitbart. And this week marks the annual convention of conservatives in Washington, D.C., Conservative Political Action Conference, or CPAC. This is an appropriate time to assess the pulse of conservatives.

Conservatives often use the hashtag, #War when tweeting about the tyrannical imperialism they believe has overtaken the culture, but is there really a concerted war, or more of a frenzied disagreement?

War is mental

As I watch what is happening, the term that often comes to mind is “playground politics,” which Dr. Paterno and I covered extensively in our book, “Ladies and Gentlemen.” The child-like behavior has become so pervasive in politics, that it has left otherwise perfectly patriotic people perfectly cynical.

Teddy Roosevelt knew war. He addressed it in his speech, “Citizenship in a Republic,” delivered at the Sorbonne in Paris, France, on April 23, 1910. It seems he knew that most every day enjoyed in the freedom of a republic was likely to be part life, part war.

“The Man in the Arena”:

“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

War is hell, and though Americans seem to know that on some level, they tend to forget that the battle for the republic will be ugly, painful, unpredictable, tiring, insulting, frustrating, demeaning and that we could lose.

Order Gina Loudon’s book “Ladies and Gentlemen: Why the Survival of Our Republic Depends on the Revival of Honor” – how atheism, liberalism and radical feminism have harmed the nation.

War is expensive

Today, it doesn’t seem many are really willing to fight for the republic. Those who are, are often mocked, scorned and robbed. Most patriots I know give so much of their precious time and resources to the fight, because they recognize that there are more important things than money, and worse things than war.

John Stuart Mill pointed out that while war is an ugly thing, it is not the ugliest of things: “The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.”

One of the things worse than war is tyranny. And to most who see this as war, that is the target in the crosshairs. To those who know why they fight, tyranny is the threat. This is not about party politics, imposing morality or petty differences to them. To the patriot in the arena, this is a fight for all things sacred, most especially, liberty.

War is personal

First, the tea party was attacked for being violent, though no violence was proven. It was attacked for being radical, but what is radical about demanding that government balances its budget and is limited to its constitutional roles? Tea-party activists scratch their heads, wondering what is so violent and radical about believing one generation has no right to lay the bills for its profligate spending on the next?

Just like the D.C. politicians who may start out as civil servants, tea-party leaders often face similar temptations. As this “war” progressed, some fallible individuals were exposed for having too much focus on personal agendas and were willing to attack those with more patriotic agendas.

Our founders were above that. They made statements about divisiveness and petty jealousies, and they had answers for those who misunderstood or abused the mission.

“We must all hang together or we will certainly hang separately.”

– Ben Franklin

Franklin and others understood that warriors, however passionate, are filled with human frailties. That doesn’t negate the priority of the mission, though.

Some will criticize those who give to the movement for various reasons. I, for one, am encouraged as I have watched patriots rise up to pour out their time and talents, one by one, month after month, year after year.

The bloggers have been the underrated, over-mocked voice of the uprising from the very beginning. Alongside bloggers and other mouthpieces, patriots such as John Hawkins correlate news of other conservatives’ work, and Steven Laboe used his talent of video editing to push out the appearances of other conservatives online. There are patriots who built organizations, and those who push out patriots’ work every day, all day, as a personal mission.

When their work is dignified, even for the other side, those who selflessly give for their vision of the future should be encouraged, I believe.

The passion of such conservatives should inspire those who do see this as war, and who do see this as a battle for the republic. Thousands of patriots give selflessly and tirelessly of their skill.  That is the stuff of warriors.

As the war progresses, if this is a real war, the soldiers had best recognize the enemy. Those who do not will be exposed.

“The road to war is paved with arrogance and miscalculation”Eric Margolis

Just because we have, at times, fought stupidly, doesn’t mean there isn’t time to rise up, recognize the elements of war, and win. But we have to know what we are fighting for.

I asked patriots around the country to answer the question of where we are, if this is #war.

Sly Ocana, a patriot from California, said that first, “It is important to recognize this as a war. We are being assaulted by forces that seek to destroy America and our freedoms. Many do not even see this as a war. It is imperative that we start getting this narrative out there. If you recognize what it is, you can begin to effectively combat it.”

Tom C. Lehner said he believes that patriots are in defense mode, and if they don’t adopt a posture of offense instead, “We are in deep trouble.” He said that right now the battle reminds him of Vietnam, “1,000 battlefields and no plan whatsoever.”

But Chris Babb and Ann-Marie Murrell said it is too early to gauge. Both agreed that this is a long battle, and we are only at the beginning of such a large fight. Babb said, “We are only at the beginning of what will be an equally long road, as the road that brought us to this point. This battle shall be won over time.”

Wayne Scott said in the five years since patriots woke up, some definitions have become very clear: “We now understand the battle lies not between parties, but between two different ideals: Self-governance or nanny state.”

Karin Rosarne feels optimistic: “I can see a huge shift in the grassroots education reform movement. #StopCommonCore groups are getting sick of dealing with politicians. I think they are about to take matters to a whole lot different level,” and she adds for emphasis, “check the ‘opt out movement.’”

War is disillusioning

Orwell assessed the tactics of the propagandists of his time, “War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength.”

Tea-party activists fought diligently to avoid the pitfalls common to movements, and one tactic was to avoid conveying their power to a central figurehead. This created confusion as to who spoke for the movement or how to define it, but it also limited the hostile media from being able to make it personal. Today, some who consider themselves “taxed enough already” are beginning to see a Reagan rising from the ashes, perhaps.

“We need another Reagan or Thatcher,” Chris Skates asserted, as he prepares to attend his first-ever CPAC this year. He believes that among others, Ted Cruz holds great promise for a real political pivot.

Many in the patriot movement echo his sentiments about Cruz, but they also believe that the establishment GOP will do all in its power to remove Cruz, because it can’t control him.

War is defining

Kim Paris is one of those who saw the disconnect and started a foundation to help give funding and direction to patriot “boots on the ground.” Her Foundation For Common Sense, she says, “is composed of patriots with different objectives, who will be recognized for their projects that proceed without fanfare, day in and day out … who fund the expenses primarily out of their own pockets, or at otherwise great personal sacrifice.”

Paris made another point about those patriots in question. She said they won’t be at CPAC, because most can’t afford it. “Instead,” she said, “they choose to spend what money they have to continue their work on the homefront.”

War is necessary

Einstein said, “I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.”

Many in the patriot movement have whispered the question that everyone wonders. When do patriots take to the streets, as they have so many times in history and recently in the Ukraine? When do they have no choice but to become the radicals they have been accused of being for so long? That they have suffered so heavily and maintained civility is a testament to the true character of the average tea partier. Still the questions linger about when that might change.

Is it when they come for our guns? Or have they already?

Is it when they kill our children? Or have they already?

Is it when they deny us health care? Or have they already?

When is that moment?

War is the beginning of the end

I always have my students answer this question, “What do you want your epitaph to say?”

I believe there is power of vision when the end is established, first.

As patriots gather to mourn the anniversary of the loss of one of their own; as they celebrate the birth of their movement, however flawed and capable; as they gather in D.C. to strategize for the road ahead, perhaps they are best to pause and reflect on the final goal.

What is sacred enough to die for?

That is the pulse that patriots ought to take, in this most pivotal moment.

CBS Journalist Sharyl Attkisson Resigns After Pressure Over ‘Anti-Obama’ Reporting


FreedomOutpost_Masthead

http://freedomoutpost.com/2014/03/cbs-journalist-sharyl-attkisson-resigns-pressure-anti-obama-reporting/#wrxuc0vxvzqxLXVh.99

On Monday, long time CBS reporter and five-time Emmy award winning journalist Sharyl Attkisson followed in the footsteps of RT host Liz Wahl by resigning her position at CBS, claiming that the pressure from the pressure that her reporting was overly critical of the Obama administration.Politico reports:

Attkisson, who has been with CBS News for two decades, had grown frustrated with what she saw as the network’s liberal bias, an outsized influence by the network’s corporate partners and a lack of dedication to investigative reporting, several sources said. She increasingly felt like her work was no longer supported and that it was a struggle to get her reporting on air.

At the same time, Attkisson’s own reporting on the Obama administration, which some staffers characterized as agenda-driven, had led network executives to doubt the impartiality of her reporting. She is currently at work on a book — tentatively titled “Stonewalled: One Reporter’s Fight for Truth in Obama’s Washington” — which addresses the challenges of reporting critically on the Obama administration.

 Obviously the executives at CBS believe she is biased because the truth is everyone is biased. There is no such thing as neutrality and we all no it. It’s a myth. The real issue they don’t like is that Attkisson is biased towards truth, not propaganda.When the majority of major news outlets bailed on the Fast and Furious scandal, followed by the Benghazi scandal, Attkisson was there, digging in and trying to discover the truth. In those reports, she didn’t just deal with the Obama administration and Democrats though; she packed some punches in at Republicans as well.

There is no doubt the Obama administration doesn’t like Sharyl Attkisson or reporters like her. Last year the White House and FBI denied her access to Benghazi details and photos in a Freedom of Information Act request. Her computer was discovered to be compromised following the revelation that the Justice Department had been secretly monitoring reporters and editors at the Associated Press.Sonya McNair, the senior vice president for communications for CBS News, said in a statement: “CBS News veteran Sharyl Attkisson is leaving the news division to pursue other endeavors. We appreciate her many contributions and we wish her well.

“Unnamed sources suggested that the issue of political bias is CBS’.

“It’s no secret that Sharyl has been unhappy about CBS’s lack of interest in investigative reporting, especially when it comes to stories about the Obama administration,” a source close to Attkisson said. Again, of course CBS is biased. It’s part of who they are.

While many believe that Wahl’s resignation was a pre-planned stunt, in order to push for a job at CNN (oh the irony after her statements), Attkisson’s appears to be genuine.

My hunch is that there was quite a bit of pressure, and that pressure has been very heavy recently, considering the report that the Obama administration is planning to use the FCC to put monitors in America’s newsrooms.

I for one wish her the best, hoping that she might even send our small outlet an email looking to contribute (and yes, I did tweet her an invitation). I won’t hold my breath.

Not as “Ridiculous” as it Sounds; Missile downed Malaysian plane?


WWW.WND.COM

WWW.WND.COM

Follows recent warning of ‘nightmare’ threat to airliners

http://www.wnd.com/2014/03/missile-downed-malaysian-plane/#fSmyfSyzSyzdjsOd.99

About; Aaron Klein is WND’s senior staff reporter and Jerusalem bureau chief. He also hosts “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio” on New York’s WABC Radio.

Just eight days after a terrorist attack in the city of Kunming dubbed “China’s September 11th,” a Malaysia Airlines flight carrying mostly Chinese passengers disappeared over the South China Sea.

While the international probe is in its early stages and questions are being raised about the prospect of terrorism, investigators would be wise to thoroughly examine the possibility of a missile attack in light of recent information about the global proliferation of such projectiles capable of downing civilian airliners.

Further, China has issued a series of warnings about North Korean missiles, including one that crossed paths with a Chinese airliner carrying 220 people just last week.

> On Friday, China complained to North Korea when one of its missiles crossed paths with a civilian jet last Tuesday that had departed Tokyo’s Narita airport en route to the northeastern Chinese city of Shenyang.

> One day earlier, South Korea’s defense ministry released a statement saying the Chinese civilian plane had “passed as the ballistic missile (from North Korea) was in the course of descending.”

> Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang told reporters, “On this issue, we have already contacted the North Korean side to convey our deep concern.”

“If any country is to hold training or exercises, it should take measures in accordance with international practice to ensure the safety of civil [facilities] in relevant airspace and maritime space,” said Qin.

Qin said the jet was flying over international waters at an altitude of 10,000 meters, or 32,800 feet.

“The rocket could have hit the plane on its way down,” he said. “North Korea had not given any warning. It was an unexpected and immoral act that goes against international norms.”

> One week earlier, North Korea reportedly test-fired two short range missiles into the sea.

> In January, former CIA Director David Petraeus warned of a “nightmare” scenario in which the proliferation of missiles could provide terrorists the ability to shoot down passenger airplanes.

The largest terrorist looting of Man-Portable-Air-Defense-Systems, or MANPADS, reportedly took place immediately after the U.S.-NATO military campaign that helped to end Moammar Gadhafi’s rule in Libya.

Gadhafi had hoarded Africa’s biggest known reserve of MANPADS, with his stock said to number between 15,000 and 20,000. Many of the missiles were stolen by militias fighting in Libya, including those backed by the U.S. their anti-Gadhafi efforts.

Last week, there were unverified claims some MANPADS went missing in Ukraine.

> Last April, the United Nations released a report revealing that weapons from Libya to extremists were proliferating at an “alarming rate,” fueling conflicts in Mali, Syria, Gaza and elsewhere.

> Most MANPADS are designed to down a low-flying aircraft. Malaysia Airlines Flight MH370, however, reportedly disappeared from radar while flying at cruising altitude in fine weather.

The details surrounding the fate of the Malaysia Airlines flight could take months or even years to fully emerge. While it is too early to jump to conclusions and the possibilities will evolve along with the investigation, some reports about the flight are technically consistent with a potential missile strike.

Reuters has exclusively quoted a senior source inside the probe saying they were narrowing the focus of the investigation to the possibility the aircraft disintegrated mid-flight.

Malaysia Airlines CEO Ahmad Jauhari Yahya told reporters the airline had no indication of any distress signal from the pilot, with CBS News reporting this suggested “that whatever happened to the plane occurred quickly and possibly catastrophically.”

Other reports say radar tracking the flight indicated the pilot may have turned back from its path to Beijing before disappearing. It was unclear how quickly the airplane did an about face or why the pilot may have decided to reverse course.

Meanwhile, international intelligence agencies have joined the investigation amid news that two passengers boarded the jet using stolen passports, raising terrorism concerns.

‘Nightmare’ threat targets passenger aircraft

At a conference in Tel Aviv in January, Petraeus warned of a “nightmare” scenario in which missile proliferation could provide terrorists the capability to shoot down a civilian airliner.

Petraeus was speaking at the annual conference of the Institute for National Security Studies, a think-tank at Tel Aviv University.

He referred to a video posted on YouTube by the Sinai-based Ansar Jerusalem jihadist group, which claimed it had fired a surface-to-air missile at an Egyptian helicopter.

“I mean, shooting down a helicopter with an apparent shoulder-fired missile is a big deal,” Petraeus said.

“As you know, that was always our worst nightmare, that a civilian airliner would be shot down by one. Which is why we were so concerned when they moved around,” he said.

The MANPADS didn’t just move around. Thousands were looted when Gadhafi’s reserves were unprotected following the NATO campaign there in 2011.

At the time, CBS News reported the U.S. was unable to secure “thousands” of MANPADS.

CBS quoted a “well-placed source” divulging that hundreds of missiles were tracked going to the group Al Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb, AQIM, the al-Qaida franchise based in Algeria that is now considered to be one of the gravest threats to the U.S.

ACCORDING TO THE LEFT: Christianity Sucks and Islam is Awesome

Man, don’t you love how mainstream media and their soft-brain disciples make Christians out to be fish-stickered, bug-eyed equals to incensed Islam? If you were to accept as true what some atheists, secularists and prattling gay activists say about Christians, you’d think the church is chomping at the bit to chop off some heads of unbelievers, glory to Gawd!

Yep, if you were to believe the barf belched out by the BS brokers on the Left, you’d stagger away Kool Aid drunk with the belief that there is little disparity between conservative Christians and militant Muslims.

As a matter of fact, you probably would be bamboozled into believing that Islam is a peaceful, Little House on the Prairie religion being temporarily hijacked by jihadist renegades, and Christianity . . . Christianity is the real charity-vacant, vicious cult that’s vying for the opportunity to seize the whip and whip us good.

Yes, the postmodern reality stylists are working their butts off trying to convince us TV-addled cattle of two primary things:

1) violent jihad is not based on the Koran and

2) All conservative Christians are theocrats ready to burn Katy Perry at the stake, stone Lindsay Lohan in a nearby gravel pit and governmentally ramrod Christianity down everyone’s pie hole.

I haven’t seen this kind of ham-fisted, forced PR, farcical façade being parlayed upon the public since Michael Jackson tried to make out with Lisa Marie in an attempt to convince us all he’d found true love in an adult of the opposite sex.

Look, there’s no denying violent things have been done by the church and in the name of God, but that has been the exception and not the rule. In addition, when the church has spent time with its head up its butt doing bogus things, the church’s leaders have historically owned it when wrong, have not repeated the gaff, have grabbed the wheel and have effectively steered saints out of any erroneous, detrimental ditch.

Not so with Islam.

In Robert Spencer’s book, Religion of Peace, Why Christianity Is and Islam Isn’t, Bob shows those who can still be shown anything factual the massive and fundamental differences between Islam and Christianity. They are not equal no matter how much the blah blah blatherers of political correctness purport them to be. Their beliefs are not similar, nor their practices, nor their means to spreading their message—and to think otherwise, postmodern Pollyanna, could cost you your ass.

Spencer points out the crystal clear facts that clash with the current anti-Christian hype such as . . .

  • Most Muslims do not condemn jihad.
  • Christianity and Islam have neither similar traditions nor similar modern realities—Christian religious violence, real or imagined, does not mitigate the reality of jihad.
  • A “Christian theocracy” in America is a figment of the Left’s imagination.
  • The Islamic world has never developed the distinction between religious and secular law that is inherent in Christianity.
  • Christianity has embraced reason—and Islam has always rejected it.
  • The Koran does not invite interpretation, and Muslim leaders refuse to discuss how to fit their beliefs into modern society.
  • Political differences and unwanted international interference are not, in fact, the cause of the turmoil in Iraq and Middle Eastern antagonism towards the west.
  • Jews, Christians and peoples of other faiths (or no faiths) are equally at risk from militant Islam.
  • The most determined enemies of western civilization may not be the jihadists at all, but the leftists who fear their churchgoing neighbors more than Islamic terrorists.

Listen, 21st century truth reconstructors . . . you’ve gotta relax. Please do us all a favor and go get healed from your bad Sunday school experience and lay down your church grinding axe. Thinking people aren’t buying the “Christianity = Islam” smack.Get real, Goofy. You and I both know that regardless of what a few loopy CINO’s (Christians in name only) have done via violence in the name of the Father that it is not in the body of Christian doctrine to hack off the noggin of the obstreperous. There’s not even an obscure passage in the Book of Revelation that some demented clod could twist like your Gumby doll to make the Christian scripture green light your demise or anyone else’s. Additionally, Christians aren’t longing for TBN to replace DC as our nation’s headquarters.

So chill, you shrill shredders of Christianity.

On the flip side, it is within the pages of the Koran to convert, conquer or kill non-Islamic people. And I’m a thinkin’ that no matter how much you work to besmirch Christianity and misinform on behalf of militant Islam, that if they had it their way, you, the secularist, would be a deceased grease stain on God’s green earth.

Therefore, gay guy, loosen that neckerchief and relax on the anti-Christian rhetoric, okay? Atheists, dial down and go back to studying monkeys (or whatever you do) and secularists, switch to decaf and exhale because you guys are barking up the wrong tree in trying to paint Christians as a coercive, could-be-violent, cabal like, militant Islam.

Radical Muslims, on the other hand, are the ones you need to sweat—because their book has zero tolerance for the likes of Katy or Lindsay—or anyone for that matter, who doesn’t lock step. You can bet your backside that if uncut Islam were in charge, Camille Paglia would be history, Drew Barrymore would be nevermore and Andrew Sullivan would never see the sun again.

The Judeo-Christian worldview (and subsequently, the great western traditions it under girds) is the only powerful cudgel in existence to ward off militant Islam. That’s what makes the Left’s lies about Christ’s Church and the Left’s desires to diminish it so diabolical. If the church’s presence and power gets marginalized via these secularists’s anti-Christian propaganda, then all I’ve got to say is, “I hope everyone is cool with wearing burkhas.”

A Chilling Reality: the Islamization of Our Military

http://clashdaily.com/2014/03/chilling-reality-islamization-military/#BScV0zuz6wZtFxWL.99

By / 10 March 2014

muslim

Manifestly the Pentagon never received the memo that Islam is at war with Western Civilization. Or, that Islam is a brutally misogynistic ideology bent on the wholesale murder of women who dare show a little ankle.

Oh, and did I forget to mention that its founder, Mohammed–had an unquenchable penchant for little girls?

In short: Islam is evil.

With that established–allow me to enlighten you as to what insanity our Pentagon is currently engaged in. The Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) just announced that it will be providing our military with chaplains for active-duty service.

That’s right–our Pentagon is allowing ISNA (a Muslim Brotherhood affiliate) to supply the US military with full time chaplains.

Of course, as I have mentioned many times in my articles–organizations such as ISNA and the Muslim Brotherhood represent the true face of Islam. These groups follow the very paradigm set by the Prophet Mohammed. A paradigm, mind you–that gave us jihad, pedophilia, beheadings, genital mutilations and 9/11.

Furthermore, ISNA was an unindicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land terrorism trial which involved funneling money to one of the most brutal and infamous Islamic terrorist organizations in the world–Hamas.

Yeah, that’s right–Hamas.

And when questioned by the Clarion Project about its egregious decision concerning ISNA–the Pentagon released the following statement: “The Islamic Society of North America is one of many religious organizations recognized by the Department of Defense that satisfy the ecclesiastical requirements to endorse qualified religious ministry professionals to serve as chaplains within the military.”

I wasn’t aware that having sex with a 9 year old girl was an “ecclesiastical requirement?”

So, to sum it all up: The Pentagon is allowing an organization that is not only a Muslim Brotherhood affiliate–but also a onetime financer of Hamas to supply our military with chaplains.

That deserves a big–WT*!

Couple this with the Pentagon’s other feckless decision to allow Muslim troops to wear hijabs and beards and we are now witnessing the start of a very chilling reality: The Islamization of our military.

13 Democrats Charged with Embezzling Millions from Charity

Leave it to the sleazy down-home Democrats of the Midwest to steal more than $16 Million from various charities, including one for those suffering from AIDS. Also not so surprising, several of the scammers have ties to President Barack Obama, including one who happens to be related to President Obama’s friend and former pastor Jeremiah “God Damn America” Wright.

The U.S. attorney’s office in Springfield has been busy the past few years investigating a variety of fraud schemes involving state grants. Thirteen people have been charged so far, six who have pleaded guilty.

Two of them have ties to President Barack Obama. One is the daughter of his controversial former pastor, the Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Another was chief of staff to Obama’s longtime friend Eric E. Whitaker when Whitaker was Illinois’ public health chief.

In all, prosecutors are alleging a total of $16 million in fraud involving state health or commerce department grants and contracts.

Why hasn’t this news about 13 prominent Democrats been circulating among the main stream media? Who knows? Maybe it’s another example of liberal corruption. Maybe they don’t think the story is “national news.” To me the most likely scenario is the media doesn’t want to sully the Democrat brand with these philandering monsters.

wrightandsonWhat about those connections to President Obama? One is the daughter of Jeremiah Wright and the other is the daughter of Obama mentor Danny Davis.

Defendant: Jeri L. Wright, daughter of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright

Charges: Money laundering and making a false statement before a grand jury

Details: Wright, described as a “close associate and friend” of Regina and Ronald Evans, is accused of aiding the Evanses in their money-laundering scheme.

And…

Defendant: Quinshaunta R. Golden, former Illinois Department of Public Health chief of staff

Charges: Bribery/theft, mail fraud and obstruction of justice

 Details: Golden, a niece of U.S. Rep. Danny K. Davis (D-Ill.), is accused of pocketing about $433,000 in kickbacks on health department contracts and grants that she oversaw.

Just goes to show you – you really do need to keep your hands on your wallet when there is a Democrat around.

Christians Slaughtered As America Sits By

By / 10 March 2014

While Secretary of State John Kerry dissembles about global warming and President Barack Obama loses staring contests with Vladimir Putin and Nicolas Maduro, no one is paying any attention to Kim Jong-Un in North Korea. That lack of attention is proving costly to the body of Christ.

Folks, our Christian brothers and sisters in North Korea are being murdered simply for believing as so many of we do – that Jesus Christ lived a perfect life and died a substitutionary death so that we could spend eternity with Him.

northkorea2Why would the despotic government of North Korea care that some people would worship Jesus? Because North Korea is communist, and communism cannot abide any other gods but the government itself. In this case, Kim Jong-Un is god and the government.

North Korea tyrant Kim Jong-un has reportedly ordered that 33 Christians believed to be working alongside South Korean Baptist missionary Kim Jung-wook be put to death.

The South Korean missionary — who was arrested last year — and his accomplices have reportedly started 500 or so underground churches, Breitbart reported.

South Korean press cited by The Daily Mail reported that Mr. Kim has charged that the 33 are attempting to overthrow the government — the same accusation that led to the execution of the North Korean leader’s uncle, Jang Song-thaek, and all Mr. Jang’s relatives.

The missionary accomplices will be put to death in a cell of the State Security Department, The Daily Mail reported.

Our government continues to fail Christians around the world. Whether they’re being persecuted in Islamic nations or communist ones – our government does not care to move to help them. Our politicians only act in their own perceived interests, never for the betterment of humanity. Call your representatives, and demand that they stand for our brothers and sisters around the world!

Liberal Colleges Persecuting Conservatives AGAIN


Eagel Rising Banner

http://eaglerising.com/5033/liberal-colleges-persecuting-conservatives/#GFy4BLCKa5oVof1f.99

By / 8 March 2014

 It is becoming commonplace for colleges and universities to persecute and marginalize conservatives – but the most recent example shows how outrageous the behavior of leftist colleges is becoming.

Rutgers University in New Jersey had invited former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice to be their commencement speaker for the 2014 graduation ceremonies. Apparently, for the faculty at Rutgers, this is reason for protest.

Seriously.

The faculty at Rutgers has decided that Ms. Rice is not “qualified” to speak at the commencement of their students. They said she, “lacks “moral authority.” She fails to meet the standards of “exemplary citizenship” and she does not have what it takes to “inspire” graduating college seniors.”

Ridiculous.

This is what our liberal colleges have come to–where no one with conservative beliefs and values has a place among the halls of higher education.

Juan Williams from Fox News is noticing a trend out there –

“There is an added element at play here. There is a disgraceful double standard amongst liberals, particularly those in academia, in the hatred they direct at black conservatives.

We saw this last April when the conservative neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson was forced to step down as a Commencement Speaker for Johns Hopkins University (where he ably served as the head of pediatric neurosurgery).

Liberals on the Hopkins campus mobilized against Carson because he criticized President Obama’s health care reform law and said that he opposed gay marriage.

I am not a conservative but I have spoken out for years against the staggering amount blind hatred directed at black conservatives by liberals.

Liberals are shockingly quick to demean and dismiss brilliant black people like Rice, Carson, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, U.S. Senator Tim Scott (R-SC), Professor Walter E. Williams and economist Thomas Sowell because they don’t fit into the role they have carved out for a black person in America.

Black Americans must be obedient liberals on all things or risk being called a race traitor or an Uncle Tom.”

It’s good to see Juan Williams defending conservatives – but its meaningless until more liberals begin speaking out against the injustice that is bred by leftist intolerance.

He Came to Set the Captive Free — And So Should We


CLASHDAILY.COM Banner

http://clashdaily.com/2014/03/came-set-captive-free/#2vQWMM8xSfSsYlyX.99

By / 7 March 2014

captiveEvery so often, the Church gets an issue in its sights, one that cuts past all the sectarian, class, or racial boundaries and brings us together to make something fantastic happen.

When ancient cultures were leaving their kids to die of exposure, we adopted them, and took care of them. We cared for the sick (even dying while helping plague victims) and built hospitals. We established centers of learning now called Universities.  We outlawed the practice of throwing Hindu widows on funeral pyres. We led various international emancipation movements.

Right now, although attention is being given (rightly) to Life issues like euthanasia and abortion, as well as promoting traditional family issues; there’s another pressing issue not in the public eye.

Christians are looking to change that.

The issue is Human Trafficking.  In the full sense of the term, we’re talking about modern slavery.  And it’s more common than you think.

The TED talk video at the end of my recent column was one expression of it.  There are many, many others.

Citing an article about 40,000 Christian college students gathered together to tackle this issue:

Christians throughout the world, including Tennessee Republican Sen. Bob Corker, drew a red “X” on their hands Thursday for “Shine A Light On Slavery Day” — advocates are calling for more aggressive government action, and pressuring corporate hotel chains and airlines to train their employees to recognize trafficking victims.

Leith Anderson, president of the National Association of Evangelicals and longtime spiritual adviser to Tim Pawlenty, said trafficking has migrated from a niche concern among liberally-minded “social justice Christians” to an increasingly prevalent platform plank for Evangelicals across the political spectrum. And while the nonpartisan nature of the cause has largely kept the cable news bookers at bay, Anderson predicted it could become the defining issue of politically active Evangelicals in years and decades to come.

Honestly — Do We Truly Want to Be Free?

http://clashdaily.com/2014/02/honestly-truly-want-free/#ut4A7B3vjhD738o1.99

By / 14 February 2014

moses

Did you notice how individual freedom is not the overarching story of human history? Usually, “The Many” have bent their necks to the yoke of “The Few”.  Often, they have accepted that as the order of things.

Cultures throughout history have either tolerated or endorsed slavery of one sort or another.  Some did through conquest, and direct ownership of servants — others through coercion and exploitation. Freedom is by no means humanity’s default position.

Even where traditional slavery is outlawed, social position will determine differences in someone’s personal worth, and even moral / legal accountability. The Caste System, and Feudalism are obvious examples, although others (like our own Celebrity Class) exist as well.

Living under our Western understanding of freedom, we might predict enslaved people would jump at their earliest opportunity to attain it, as with the Underground Railway, or Cuban refugees today.  But in both ancient times and modern, these seem the exceptions that prove the rule.

Remember the Jewish Exodus from scripture?

Moses showed up, promising freedom from their slavery to Pharaoh, with mixed results.  The first setback (bricks without straw) made them grumble — not against Pharaoh, but against Moses! Skip ahead to when Israel was wandering the desert, with former captors safely on the other side of a body of water. They grumbled some more.

And the people of Israel also wept again and said, “Oh that we had meat to eat! We remember the fish we ate in Egypt that cost nothing, the cucumbers, the melons, the leeks, the onions, and the garlic. But now our strength is dried up, and there is nothing at all but this manna to look at.

(Numbers 11)

They had escaped the reach of their captors, but in their hearts, and in the way they viewed themselves, they remained slaves.

They even misread their own circumstances. Had they truly eaten for free back in Egypt? Feeling the bite of the lash across their backs, toiling in the hot sun. Was it for free that they got their food? Hardly. But those few creature comforts — the ones that made slavery seem tolerable — were gone. To get them back, some were willing to return to those shackles. (Think: The Matrix and the “Blue Pill”.) They were tragically setting their own purchase price at the paltry sum of a few fish, and a couple of vegetables.  Little did they know what awaited their people beyond the Jordan.

Karl Marx once claimed that Religion was the opiate of the masses, something to keep paupers docile. Not so in Israel’s case. For Israel, the opiate was onions, fish and leeks.  “Religion” (or more properly, God) was both the initiator and instrument of their freedom.

Back then, enslaved Israel — like battered wives today — was held in check by both a carrot and a stick.  Fear of the lash on one hand, and the lure of things they thought they could not do without on the other, paralyzed them. What they needed was a rescuer; an intervention.

Tragically, that ancient generation had been so accustomed to their chains and the pressures of fear and need, they had been just as “domesticated” as a lion in a zoo.

Does this happen here today? Of course! We may not have sugar plantation owners today, but we have a different kind of slave, doing a different job.  And people don’t mind because it seems like easy work, with a good payoff.

It’s simple: show up one Tuesday in November every fourth year, and write an “x” in the the correct box, and you have served your “massah” well.

The hoi polloi gets promised some variation of “hope” and “change”; (which apparently means food stamps and — retroactive — birth control) while the people offering the carrots get a backstage pass to the seemingly limitless personal power, influence, and wealth that life in the Beltway can offer.

Public service? National Interest? That’s cute. Now stand aside, plebe, there’s money to be made!

Moses first tasted freedom for himself.  He had lived apart from the illusion of safety that chains represented. But it took time for Israel to embrace their freedom, to savour it, and own it for themselves.  In their case, the older generation never quite came around.  It had to come from their kids.

There is a sense in which Conservatives are more individualist than their counterparts, and disinclined to activism. In some ways, that’s even understandable.

But remember, Freedom is not the dominant theme of human history.  It is vulnerable to entropy.  When taken for granted, it becomes eroded, and eventually lost. To preserve it, we must hate, and oppose all forms of slavery, however mild or extreme their out-workings may be.

To defend another person’s freedom is to preserve your own.  That idea was at the heart of the American foundations, and is near to the heart of the Christian faith that shaped it.

Freedom, in the Christian meaning, is corrosive to the chains of tyranny.  It maintains that, regardless of sex, race, social standing, or any other factor, all people have equal worth and dignity. If we are all equal, it follows that nobody is elite. Leaders are not lords.

If you enjoy and appreciate your freedoms (plural) — make use of them!  And then, encourage and assist others to lay hold of theirs, both at home and abroad.  I for one, found this TED Talk on the topic inspiring.  Maybe you will too.

The Democratic Party’s Dirty Secret


INFOWARS

INFOWARS.COM

March 8, 2014
Updated with a new video below.

030814democrat

Jon Bowne investigates the mass amnesia associated with the indisputable connection between the Ku Klux Klan and the Democratic Party as well as its long history of murder, torture and voting coercion (MUST SEE and SHARE):

KKK

And Alex explains how the Democrats’ history ties into their current race-based, divide and conquer platform:

Dems

Yet the mainstream media is always trying to bury these obvious connections.

For example, shortly after the death of Democratic Senator Robert Byrd in 2010, Daily Caller contributor Mike Riggs pointed out the mainstream media’s whitewash of Byrd’s former ties to the Ku Klux Klan:

Deceased U.S. Sen. Robert Byrd will be remembered by lots of things: His love for dogs and hyperbole, his ability to funnel federal dollars into make-work jobs in his native West Virginia, his loathing of balanced budgets and the fact that he skillfully conned several generations of Appalachian woodhicks into voting for him, over and over again, for almost six decades.

In passing, Sen. Byrd will also be remembered for having joined the Ku Klux Klan as a “young man.”

A quick check of this morning’s obituaries reveal that in the eyes of the traditional media, Byrd the Progressive Porker is much more important than Bob the Exalted Cyclops.

Byrd joined the Klan at the ripe young age of 24 — hardly a young’un by today’s standards, much less those of 1944, when Byrd refused to join the military because he might have to serve alongside “race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds,” according to a letter Byrd wrote to Sen. Theodore Bilbo at the height of World War II.

Today’s obituaries, however, made little mention of Byrd’s once-deeply held hatred for African Americans.

For your reading pleasure, a collection of obituary snow jobs:

From the 11th paragraph of the LA Times’ Byrd obituary: “Byrd was not always a champion of liberal causes. He had come of age as a member of the Ku Klux Klan and cast a “no” vote on the landmark Civil Rights Act of 1964 that prohibited discrimination against African Americans and others. He later renounced his actions in both cases and called his membership in the KKK ‘the worst mistake of my life.’”

ABC News noted that “despite his successful political track record, the Senate’s senior Democrat was no stranger to controversy and was once a member of the Ku Klux Klan,” as if calling for the extermination of dark-skinned peoples (as well as Jews, Catholics, and gays) was no more stirring a gaffe than Gary Hart’s monkey business.

MSNBC.com reported that “Byrd’s success on the national stage came despite a complicated history on racial matters. As a young man, we was a member of the Ku Klux Klan for a brief period, and he joined Southern Democrats in an unsuccessful filibuster against the landmark 1964 Civil Rights.” (The Ku Klux Klan no doubt objects to being called complicated, and has held since Day 1 one that there is nothing wishy-washy about castrations, lynchings or burning folks alive.)

CNN also gave Byrd a pass on his association with the early 20th-century homegrown terrorist movement, writing in the 20th paragraph of Byrd’s obituary that “He blamed ‘that Southern atmosphere in which I grew up, with all of its prejudices and its feelings,’ for his opposition to equal rights, which included joining the [domestic terrorist outfit] Ku Klux Klan in the 1940s.”

Rick Perry Calls for Return to Federalism Led by Red States


Bret BART

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2014/03/07/Rick-Perry-Calls-For-A-Return-to-Federalism-Led-By-Red-States

by 7 Mar 2014

Rick Perry, the Republican governor of Texas, called for a return to federalism on Friday in a speech to the Conservative Political Action Conference. Quoting Thomas Jefferson, Perry said, “It’s time for a little rebellion on the battlefield of ideas… instead of looking to Washington, look to the states.”

The states, Perry argued, are “laboratories of innovation.” It is time to elect national leaders “who devolve power to the states, not rob them of it.”

“It is time for Washington to focus on the few things the constitution establishes as the federal government’s role,” Perry told the receptive crowd. The federal government should “get out of the health care business…get out of the education business… [and] stop hammering industry.”

According to Perry, there are two visions of America at the state level.

In blue states, Perry said, taxes are out of control and jobs are fleeing. In red states, “freedom of the individual comes first. Taxes are low, spending is under control, and jobs are on the rise.”

Perry singled out four Republican governors whose conservative policies are leading to economic growth in their states: Nikki Haley in South Carolina, Bobby Jindal in Louisiana, Scott Walker in Wisconsin, and Rick Scott in Florida.

“Conservative governors trust the people more than the machinery of government,” Perry said. “The contrast with blue states is crystal clear,” he added.

“Let’s pick the two biggest [blue states], New York and California. No two states have lost more personal income to other states,” Perry said. He noted that “it costs twice as much to hire a truck to move from California to Texas as it does to hire a truck to move from Texas to California… You can’t find enough trucks to flee the Golden State.”

Perry cited Texas, the state where he has served as governor for over a decade, as an excellent example of “Red State” success.” We cut taxes, we didn’t spend all the money… we made predictable regulations… we created 30% of the nation’s new jobs.”

As a result, Perry said, Texas has an “economic boom of monumental proportions.”

Perry concluded by saying “the red state-blue state debate really matters” because “the vision that wins out… will determine the future of our nation.”

“There is a price to be paid for policies that destroy our economy and embolden our foreign enemies,” Perry warned.

The Texas governor ended on an upbeat note. “It’s not too late for America to lead in the world but it starts by leading at home.”

“We don’t have to accept recent history,” Perry said. “We just have to change the presidency.”

Sarah Palin: Ted Cruz, Rand Paul Top My 2016 List


Bret BART

by 7 Mar 2014

On Friday, Sarah Palin, whose endorsement may have the most impact in the 2016 GOP presidential contest if she does not run, said that though she did not have a 2016 favorite yet, Sens. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Rand Paul (R-KY) were at the top of her list.

Former South Carolina Senator and Heritage Foundation President Jim DeMint has said that Palin’s endorsement has the most impact in GOP primaries, and a recent national survey found that Palin had the highest favorability rating among Republican presidential primary voters.

Appearing on Fox News’s On The Record with Greta Van Susteren the night before she closes out CPAC for the second time in three years, Palin was asked if a potential candidate was emerging as her favorite.

“No, not yet,” she answered without hesitation.

Van Susteren then asked if there were candidates who were at the top of her list.

“I appreciate those who have fought for America like Ted Cruz, like Rand Paul,” Palin answered before saying that, perhaps, the best candidate may not even be a politician.

“It doesn’t have to be someone who has a title today, someone who’s in office today,” Palin said. “In fact, some would say we need to stay clear of those who have followed a conventional political path. Maybe they are a part of the problem.” 

“There are businessmen and women and strong family men and women who understand what it is that makes America exceptional, and they want to protect that, they want to get back to that; maybe someone like that will rise and be the 2016 candidate, maybe that’s what we need,” she explained.

When asked if she would run in 2016, Palin gave the same answer she always gives: “You never say never.”

She said she does not have a team “doing the poll-tested, whatever they do” to figure out what messages work and test the waters in early presidential primary states. Palin said that she’ll “never say never” and run if there aren’t fighters that appreciate and want to fight to preserve American exceptionalism and the promise of America. Palin said there are so many Americans who “feel like I feel” and “serve this country” and mentioned that “it doesn’t have to be me” running for president.

As Breitbart News has reported and documented, Palin’s influence was proven during the 2012 cycle – as candidates Palin praised before Iowa and South Carolina voted won:

She praised Rick Santorum in December in 2011 when Iowans seemed lukewarm about the field of Republican primary candidates. After Palin made her remarks on December 2 on Fox News’s Hannity, Santorum, who was at four percent in the polls in Iowa – barely above Jon Huntsman, who was not even competing in the state – started getting momentum and eventually won the caucus a month later. Though Santorum had gone “all-in” in Iowa and planted his campaign exclusively in the state, voters were persuaded to consider his candidacy more seriously after Palin spoke kindly of him.

Palin has influence in South Carolina as well, of course – her support of Nikki Haley in the 2010 primary ensured she won the Palmetto State’s gubernatorial election – and her positive comments about Newt Gingrich enabled him to win South Carolina’s presidential primary in 2012.

While the 2012 GOP presidential primary had a clear establishment frontrunner in Mitt Romney and a bevy of weaker candidates who battled to be the anti-Romney, the 2016 primary has strong candidates across the board without a clear frontrunner. If they all run, potential candidates like Chris Christie, Jeb Bush, Paul Ryan, Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Scott Walker, Bobby Jindal, Marco Rubio, Rick Perry, and Rick Santorum would each have a significant group of supporters that may get them around 8-15% of the vote.

That may make Palin, if she chooses not to run, the 2016 kingmaker.

New Abortion Clinic Closures Means More Babies Will be Saved From Abortions


Life News Banner

http://www.lifenews.com/2014/03/07/new-abortion-clinic-closures-means-more-babies-will-be-saved-from-abortions/

by Steven Ertelt | Washington, DC | LifeNews.com | 3/7/14 11:47 AM

The ever-decreasing number of abortion clinics continues its decline with the announcement of the closing of abortion clinics in Texas, Florida, and California.

Whole Women’s Health announced this week that its surgical abortion clinics in McAllen and Beaumont have permanently closed due to the new law passed last year that requires abortion facilities to meet minimum safety requirements, including hiring only abortionists that maintain local hospital privileges. The McAllen location had “temporarily” closed in January.

prolifepicture2Operation Rescue had lodged complaints about the Whole Women’s Health clinics in McAllen, Beaumont, and Austin after discovering they were improperly dumping “identifiable” aborted baby remains a during an undercover investigation in 2011. This led the Austin and McAllen locations to be heavily fined.

In addition, the North Florida Women’s Health & Counseling Service in Tallahassee has announced in public notices that it will be closing permanently on March 31. That surgical abortion clinic has operated continuously since 1981.

Surgical abortion clinics are not the only ones closing. Planned Parenthood’s office in Sunnyvale, California, which offered only medication abortions (RU-486) shut down in January.

“We are on track to see another great year. Every time an abortion clinic closes, lives are saved because women have a greater opportunity to seek other means of coping with the challenges they face. This is great news for women and their babies,” said Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue.

Also out of business for good is Lester Minto’s Reproductive Services in Harlington, Texas. Minto stopped abortions in November due to the new Texas law, but continued to see abortion patients who had taken abortion pills procured in Mexico or other locations. This week he announced on MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow Show that he has closed his clinic permanently and is selling his building.

Minto’s clinic joins real estate market along with the former New Women All Women abortion building in Birmingham, Alabama, which was put up for sale this week.

So far in 2014, seven surgical abortion clinics in four states have announced closure with one abortion pill clinic closing. Those states are California, Florida, Texas, and Iowa.

One of those abortion clinics, the Family Planning Associates in Montclair, California, remains closed as of this writing, but has obtained a potential new location, but has yet to clear several legal hurdles before reopening.

This continues the trend of abortion clinic closures documented by Operation Rescue, which maintains the most accurate list of abortion clinics in the U.S. In 2013, a record 87 surgical abortion clinics and 6 abortion pill-only clinics closed.

The closures are attributed to new laws that are weeding out abortion clinics that cannot meet minimum standards. Also, an increase in pro-life sentiment and greater reporting of abortion abuses by pro-life groups have also contributed to the closures.

“Along with laws that are putting abortion quacks out of business, more and more women are simply rejecting abortion. When demand for services drops, businesses go under, and that is what we are now seeing in the abortion cartel,” said Newman. “This trend reflects a fundamental change, which we believe will ultimately lead to an end of abortion in this country.”

I Am Afraid of This Indisputable Pro-Abortion Argument


Life News Banner

http://www.lifenews.com/2014/03/07/i-am-afraid-of-this-indisputable-pro-abortion-argument/

by Matt Walsh | Washington, DC | LifeNews.com | 3/7/14 4:19 PM

I took the bait. I couldn’t help but open an email with the subject line: “You’re afraid of this pro-choice argument”

Afraid? I’m afraid of a lot of things. Actually, five things: spiders, asteroids, ghosts, head lice, and malaria. But arguments? Especially pro-abortion arguments? Definitely not on the list.

I might be frustrated by them; annoyed, angered, even disturbed, but afraid? I don’t think so.

Here’s Rachel, trying to strike fear into my heart:

Dear Matt, ever since I first read your blog I knew you were a cowardly fake. It wasn’t until I started reading some of your anti-choice articles that my suspicions were truly confirmed. You spend a lot of time picking the low hanging fruit. You attack the weakest abortion rights arguments while ignoring the glaring weaknesses in your own position.

If you had the guts or the brains you’d try to respond to the most important abortion rights argument… bodily autonomy or bodily integrity. This means that we have the final jurisdiction over our own bodies. Nobody can claim a right to our body that goes above our own right. Nobody can use our bodies without consent. We cannot be forced to donate organs or blood to someone else. A fetus must survive on a woman’s body so the woman has a right to withdrawal her consent and her body at any time.

prolifeimage46This is the pro-choice argument that no anti-choice fanatic… especially one as stubborn and simpleminded as you… could ever possibly dispute. If you still don’t understand, try to imagine this hypothetical…

Imagine that you wake up one morning in a hospital bed. In the bed next to you is a famous singer. He is unconscious and all of these tubes are connected from him to you. A doctor comes in and explains that the singer became sick and you are the only person with the right blood type to match his. They need you to remain hooked up to him until he recovers… they tell you it should only take nine months. Until then, he needs to use all of your organs… your kidneys, liver, lungs, everything… just to survive. If you unplug yourself, he will die. So do you think you are obligated to stay plugged in? Does he have a right to live off of you like this? Should you be FORCED to stay connected to him?

That’s what situation the pregnant woman is in. Instead of harping on all of these irrelevant issues, I wish you’d be brave enough to address it from this angle. It is immoral to require a woman to sustain a fetus and it is moral for a woman to make a decision with her body based on what is right for her. How can you argue against this?

But I guess your blog is more about preaching to the choir than actually being intelligent and bold in your writing. What a shame.

-Rachel

Here’s my answer:

Dear Rachel,

You’re right. You win. I have no response. I can’t think of any reason why you’re wrong about any of the points you raised.

Well, I can’t think of any reason — except for, like, ten reasons. So I’ll start with five reasons why that hypothetical is flawed, and move on to five additional reasons why your overall argument is flawed.

Here we go:

baby, womb, pregnant, woman1. Your analogy is flawed because it presupposes that the relationship between mother and child is no more significant, and carries with it no more responsibility, than the relationship between a person and some random stranger in a hospital bed.

This is absurd. If we’re trying to make this hypothetical as close to pregnancy as possible, shouldn’t the sick singer (or violinist, according to the original iteration of this hypothetical) at least be your child? Your argument doesn’t work because the fact that your child is your child, and not some strange adult from across town, is precisely the point. Hidden cleverly in this hypothetical is the insinuation that one cannot agree that an unborn child has a right to his mother’s body, without agreeing that anyone in the entire world, in any context, for any reason, at any point, for any period of time, has a right to a woman’s body.

Nice try, Rachel.

Just because a mother is expected to be a mother doesn’t mean she’s also expected to be a slave, a prostitute, and a forced organ donor to talented musical artists. Indeed, the extent of our responsibility to a person hinges in many ways on our relationship to them. You would, I assume, agree that you have a responsibility to your born children, wouldn’t you? And your responsibility to them extends far beyond your responsibility to your neighbor, or your plumber, or your trash collector, doesn’t it? The relationship matters. Your hypothetical fails because it pretends that relationships are irrelevant.

2. Your analogy is flawed because it leaves out an important detail: how did the singer become ill in the first place?

Aside from cases of rape, a child is only conceived because two people intentionally committed a particular act which has, literally billions of times, resulted in the conception of a human life.

This singer came down with a terrible sickness. You might feel pity for him, but you didn’t cause him to be sick. You didn’t put him in this state. You had absolutely nothing to do with it. The same cannot be said when a child is conceived.

3. Your analogy is flawed because, when framed properly, it doesn’t strengthen your moral position — it defeats it.

The hypothetical should be this: your own child becomes very sick because of something you did. He needs a blood transfusion and you are the only match. Would you refuse to give him your blood because it infringes on your bodily autonomy? Could this be morally justified? You put your kid in the hospital and now you will choose to watch him die because he ‘doesn’t have a right to your blood.’ THIS scenario would be the closest to abortion. And, if you are consistent in your affinity for ‘bodily autonomy,’ you could not criticize parents who’d rather let their child die than be inconvenienced by a blood transfusion.

4. But, no matter how you frame the hypothetical, it is still flawed because it ignores one crucial thing: natural order.

An unborn child is exactly where he is supposed to be. He couldn’t possibly be anywhere else. This is the fundamental difference between two people hooked up to machines on a hospital bed, and a ‘fetus’ connected to his mother insider her womb. The former represents unnatural and extraordinary measures, while the latter represents something natural and ordinary. The unborn child is where Nature (or God, as I call Him) intends it to be.

The unborn child is not, in any scientific or medical sense, an intruder or a parasite. These words have meanings, and unborn babies do not fit the bill. They are where they are supposed to be. They are where they belong. A fish belongs in water, just as an unborn child belongs in his mother’s womb.

5. Beyond all of these points, the analogy is flawed because abortion is not the same as ‘unplugging’ a person from medical equipment.

It might be quite sanitary and pleasant to refer to abortion as a woman ‘withdrawing support’ from her child, but the procedure goes beyond this. During a ‘termination,’ the baby is actively killed. It is crushed, dismembered, poisoned, or torn apart. It is killed. It is actively, actually, purposefully, intentionally killed.

In fact, even in the original hypothetical — where you’re hooked up to a singer in a hospital bed — while it would be acceptable to unplug yourself, it would NOT be morally or legally permissible to shoot the poor guy in the head. A person’s physical reliance on you does not give you the moral (or legal, usually) right to murder them. ‘Withdrawing support’ is precisely what an abortion isn’t. If it was, then the baby would be delivered and left to die in the corner of the room. Of course, this is how some abortionists conduct business, but it’s illegal. If they’re caught, they go to jail.

6. But the bodily autonomy argument is flawed in ways that go beyond that utterly fallacious and misleading hypothetical. It’s flawed because nobody is crazy enough to consistently apply it to pregnant women.

According to bodily autonomy, a mother could not be judged harshly for smoking, drinking, doing coke, and going skydiving (hopefully not all in the same day) while 6 months pregnant. If you really believe that a woman’s body is autonomous — that she has absolute jurisdiction over it — then you must defend a mother who does things that could seriously harm her unborn child, even if she hasn’t chosen to abort it. This is not a slippery slope argument; this is a reasonable and inevitable application of your principle.

20 week old unborn child - when many states still allow abortion

20 week old unborn child – when many states still allow abortion

7. The bodily autonomy argument is flawed because it requires you to support abortion at every stage of development.

I’m throwing this in here because most pro-aborts will not (vocally) defend abortion at 8 or 9 months. But — if bodily autonomy is your claim — you must. Is a woman’s body less autonomous when she’s been pregnant for 35 weeks? There is no way around it: bodily autonomy means that it is moral to kill a fully formed baby, at seven months, or eight months, or nine months.

8. The bodily autonomy argument is flawed because you can’t limit it to pregnant women.

You say that our bodies cannot be ‘used’ without our ‘consent.’ Why should this apply only to pregnancy and organ donations? Children, at any age, create profound demands on their parents’ bodies. Whether it’s waking up in the middle of the night for the crying baby, working long hours to pay for their food and clothing, carrying them around when they cannot walk, staying home when you’d like to go out, going out (to bring them to the doctor, or school, or soccer practice) when you’d like to stay in, etc, etc, etc, and so forth. An argument for absolute bodily autonomy means that it can’t be illegal, or considered immoral, for a parent to decline to do any of these things, so long as their decision was made in the name of bodily autonomy.

9. The bodily autonomy argument is flawed because it necessarily justifies things like public masturbation.

If I can ‘do what I want with my body,’ then it becomes very difficult to launch a salient moral or legal attack against a man who chooses to sit in a playground in front of children and pleasure his own body.

10. Finally, the bodily autonomy argument is flawed because our bodies are not autonomous.

I’m often accused of oversimplifying, but I’ve never oversimplified to the extent of you bodily autonomy proponents. Once we’ve considered every complexity and nuance, we can rightly say that our bodies are autonomous in some ways, and in some circumstances, but not in others. We cannot say that they are absolutely autonomous, and I find it hard to believe that anyone truly thinks that.

Any claim or responsibility placed on me, automatically includes a claim and responsibility on my body. Everything I do involves my body. I am my body. CS Lewis would say that I am my soul and I have a body. I agree with him, but for our purposes in this discussion, leaving souls and spirits aside, we are our bodies. Whether we are expected to pay taxes or drive the speed limit or provide a safe and sanitary home for our children, we are using our bodies to meet these expectations. We experience and participate in life with our bodies. Absolute bodily autonomy is inexorably linked with personal autonomy. If my body is autonomous, my person must be autonomous, and if my person is autonomous, then my very existence is autonomous, and if my very existence is autonomous, then it is simply unacceptable and (by your logic) immoral for anyone to expect me to do anything for anyone at any point for any reason.

If you concede that we ought to be expected or even required to do certain things, then you are placing limits on our bodily autonomy. If you place limits on our bodily autonomy, then you are admitting that limits can be placed on our bodily autonomy. If you are admitting that limits can be placed on our bodily autonomy, then you must consider whether abortion falls within or outside of those limits. And here’s the rub: if you contend that abortion falls within the limits on bodily autonomy, you must justify that belief beyond simply reasserting our right to bodily autonomy.

Personally, I think that abortion goes well beyond the limits on bodily autonomy, for all of the reasons I’ve previously stipulated.

There’s your answer, Rachel.

But, except for the ten reasons why you’re wrong, you’re right on the money.

And, except for the ten answers I’ve provided, I have no answers for you.

I guess you win.

Thanks for writing.

Tinkering With Frankenstein: Obama Admin Considers Three-Parent Embryos


Life News Banner

http://www.lifenews.com/2014/03/07/tinkering-with-frankenstein-obama-admin-considers-three-parent-embryos/

by Eric Metaxas | Washington, DC | LifeNews.com | 3/7/14 1:54 PM

Some things are better left untried. Like trying to create children with three genetic parents. I’ll explain …
 

An FDA panel is currently reviewing a procedure that would allow a child to inherit genetic material from three different people.

If that sounds like one too many to you, congratulations! Your moral intuition is more highly developed than that of many scientific researchers.

picturecloning6bThe procedure, pioneered at Oregon Health and Science University, involves replacing defective mitochondria in a woman’s egg with healthy mitochondria from another woman.

To understand the controversy, you have to understand that every human carries two kinds of DNA: chromosomal DNA, the iconic “double helix,” to which both your father and mother contribute equally, and mitochondrial DNA, which serves as the power source in cells and is only passed on by your mother.

If this proposed procedure is approved, the result would be children with DNA from three different people.

Not surprisingly, this procedure is being justified as a therapeutic measure. As the Washington Post put it, “scientists think [the procedure] could help women who carry DNA mutations for conditions such as blindness and epilepsy.”

Yet similar methods using embryonic stem cells have failed to deliver on any of the promises made by their proponents. All we have to show for the research is destroyed human lives.

Likewise, whether this procedure can actually alleviate suffering is conjectural. What is certain is that, once we open the door to mixing and matching DNA, it will not stop with replacing defective mitochondria.

Marcy Darnovsky of the Center for Genetics and Society called the procedure “radical experimentation on future children.” Writing in the New York Times, she urged “carefully and thoughtfully [applying] the tools of human genetic engineering to treat medical conditions in people” instead of manipulating “the genetic traits of future children.”

Which is what the proposed procedure would do. Thus, it would open the door to, in Darnovsky’s words, “human experimentation and high-tech eugenics.”

Naturally, proponents of the procedure dismiss these concerns. As one of them put it, “I don’t think we should be motivated by a fear of the unknown.”

Well, we’re not. What concerns me and should concern you is the often irresistible human temptation to play God.

Nearly twenty years ago, in his book “Forbidden Knowledge,” the late Roger Shattuck wrote that modern technology walks along “an increasingly slippery slope little affected by good intentions and individual twinges of conscience.”

Shattuck warned about the dangers posed in mapping the human genome, writing that the scientists involved were “often more interested in genomes … than in humans.” Many of them thought nothing of “editing our genetic text.”

If you enter the word “transhuman” into a search engine, you will see that the enthusiasm for “editing” has increased exponentially since then.

Shattuck wasn’t saying scientific research was bad, per se. In his words, science “is neither a sin nor a grail.” Instead, he was warning that some things are better left unknown, not because knowledge is evil but because we are—or at least can be.

History bears him out. As he put it, for every Prometheus, there is a Pandora’s box. We simply aren’t wise enough to know which is which. That’s why some lines should never be crossed.

Because even as we tell ourselves that our goal is to heal, we will end up creating Frankenkinder, instead.

February: 223,000 More Unemployed Individuals


March 7, 2014 – 9:36 AM


By Ali MeyerEmployment, Unemployment

(AP Photo)

(CNSNews.com) — The number of unemployed individuals 16 years and over increased by 223,000 in February, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).In February, there were 10,459,000 unemployed individuals age 16 and over, which was up 223,000 from  January, when there were 10,236,000 unemployed individuals.

In addition, according to the BLS, there were 91,361,000 Americans, 16 or older, who did not participate in the nation’s labor force in February, meaning they neither held a job nor actively sought one.

That brought the national labor force participation rate to 63%, which matched January’s participation rate.

In February, according to BLS, the nation’s civilian non-institutional population — all people 16 or older who were not in the military or an institution — hit 247,085,000. Among those people, 155,724,000 participated in the labor force by either holding a job or actively seeking one.

The 155,724,000 who participated in the labor force in February equaled only 63% of the 247,085,000 civilian non-institutional population.

For the same 155,724,000 who participated in the labor force, 145,266,000 had a job and 10,459,000 did not have a job but were actively seeking one, making them the nation’s unemployed.The 10,459,000 job seekers were 6.7 percent of the 155,724,000 actively participating in the labor force during the month. Thus, the unemployment rate was 6.7 percent.

In February, the 145,266,000 people actually employed in the United States was 890,000 less than the 146,156,000 employed  six years ago in February 2008.

Another ‘tough to watch’ black-on-white beating

Lexington attacker’s ‘heinous random act’ caught on video

Colin Flaherty is an award-winning reporter and author of “White Girl Bleed a Lot: The return of racial violence to America and how the media ignore it.” Follow him on Twitter.
Caught

(Editor’s note: Colin Flaherty has done more reporting than any other journalist on what appears to be a nationwide trend of skyrocketing black-on-white crime, violence and abuse. WND features these reports to counterbalance the virtual blackout by the rest of the media due to their concerns that reporting such incidents would be inflammatory or even racist. WND considers it racist not to report racial abuse solely because of the skin color of the perpetrators or victims.) Videos linked or embedded may contain foul language and violence.

This beating is “tough to watch,” said the news anchor. But when it comes to black on white violence caught on video, that does not narrow it down much. This one is in Lexington, Ky., from WLEX news. “And we do warn you: Some may find the images disturbing.”

But hardly unique.

The reporter was introducing her viewers to a recently released video of black man attacking a white college student waiting for a bus. The assault begins with a close-up of the man who is about to ask the college student for a cigarette.

When the student says no, the black man briefly turns away, then turns back to unleash a punch to the other man’s face. Knocking him down.

“At first glance, police thought that this was a case of what has been dubbed the Knockout Game,” said reporter Kristen Pflum. “A heinous random act of violence seen sweeping the country lately. Unfortunately though, the suspect landed several more punches.”

That, apparently, disqualified this assault from being considered a Knockout Game because it violated the unwritten rules of the anonymous governing body that decides these kind of things.

That is why so many editors still insist the Knockout Game and other forms of racial violence are urban legends, even as the attacks continue around the country. Even as more and more victims, videos, witnesses and stories emerge, almost all saying the same thing: The people doing the attacking are black. The victims are not.

Even as a judge in St. Louis said last year one person alone in St. Louis had played the Knockout Game 300 times.

But many insist there is no Knockout Game. No racial violence. Things happen.

Real or not, the attacker kept punching the fallen college student for almost a minute, then ran away. The student was left with broken bones around his eye, a broken nose and other injuries authorities like to call “minor.”

The police detectives were quick to assure us the attack was “random.”

“He doesn’t know who the suspect is,” said Det. Rob Sarrantonio of the Lexington Police Department. “He was shown photos of the suspect. It was just a random act of violence.”

But just like a disproportionate number of other “random” attacks, some wonder why police and reporters are so quick to use the word “random” for violence that has a clear, non-random pattern.

“Even an untrained eye can see that these cross-country assaults are not random,” said Taleeb Starkes, author of “The Uncivil War.” “Impulsive? Maybe. But random? No. These crimes can’t be random when they almost always feature black assailants and non-black victims, be they white or Asian or gay or young or old. Furthermore, the constant re-defining of what the Knockout Game is or isn’t, in attempt to trivialize these barbaric acts is getting old.”

In Cedar Rapids, Iowa, police arrested this week five people who starred in another “hard to watch” video of black mob violence. This one took place in a food court at the Lindale Mall. It featured about dozen black people fighting, screaming, throwing chairs, hitting each other with chairs, destroying property and lots of other mayhem.

The arrests came two weeks after the riot made its debut on WorldStarHipHop.com. It has attracted more than 800.000 viewers. Police say they expect more arrests.

In New York City, several media outlets had pronounced the Knockout Game to be a fad that was over. If it ever existed at all. Then on Sunday, it happened again, this time in Vinegar Hill in Brooklyn.

Black mobs routinely terrorize cities across the country, but the media and government are silent. Read the detailed account of rampant racial crime in “White Girl Bleed A Lot: The Return of Racial Violence to America and How the Media Ignore It.”

Vinegar Hill is the kind of place Spike Lee was talking about last week in a widely publicized rant against white people moving into black neighborhoods. He said it was racist that services and public safety never improved until gentrification came and white people moved in and ruined everything.

One hundred years ago, Vinegar Hill was a center of black commerce, culture and arts. In the 1960s the federal government declared it was “blighted.” Many of the older homes and commercial districts were torn down, replaced with public housing projects.

Which of course today are blighted – and sit side by side with newer, expensive condos and refurbished homes. Many of the white residents think they are good citizens for rebuilding a bad neighborhood. But a resident of one such neighborhood said after he moved in, he and his neighbors felt trapped in the expensive new homes. He said they felt as if they were targets for black on white crime and violence.

Like the kind that happened last Sunday afternoon when one of the newer white residents of Vinegar Hill was walking her dog when four black people assaulted her.

“They hid behind cars and surprised her, punching her in the face and back of the head,” said a public service announcement from a community group in a neighborhood called Dumbo. “The kids ran into the projects after being chased. It is disgusting and scary that this could have been any one of us.”

Adam Meshburg told the Gothamist the assault was an example of the Knockout Game, because during the beating, “they didn’t take anything and had plenty of opportunity to.”

A spokesperson for the NYPD declined to characterize the attack as part of the Knockout Game trend, saying police have never labeled any of the previous assaults as such, reported the Gothamist.

Brooklyn is the site of frequent racial violence, sometimes on video, often directed at a community of Orthodox Jews. New York city councilwoman Laurie Cumbo explained it simply and politely: Black people don’t like Jews: “the accomplishments of the Jewish community trigger feelings of resentment, and a sense that Jewish success is not also their success.”

In Milwaukee this week, Chris Grell was shoveling snow to make extra money for his wife and three kids when a black man punched him in the face. Knocking him out.

Milwaukee media won’t release a description but others in Milwaukee did. They are, however, curiously sure of one thing: This was not a case of the Knockout Game. From WTMJ TV news:

“Milwaukee police cannot confirm it’s a case of Knockout, but do tell us that like the brutal game, Grell was not robbed. On the other hand, Knockout attacks involve more than one suspect, and they get a rise of out inflicting pain. This case saw just one suspect.”

There are those mysterious rules again.

Knockout Game or not, racial violence proceeds apace in more traditional forms in the rest of the country.

In Denver, five black people are responsible for at least 18 robberies in the last six weeks. The group is robbing people on the street and in stores, probably using stolen cars to get away. This week, police released surveillance pictures of their hoodie-clad faces.

Denver has been the scene of dozens of examples of black mob violence over the last four years. Including several on New Year’s Day. At least one media outlet remembered, at least partially.

“In 2009 and 2011 there were a series of attacks in the downtown Denver area where African-Americans were targeting whites and Hispanics,” said the NBC affiliate reporting on the New Years attacks. “According to police reports, in the New Year’s Day cases, the victims were white men and they reported their attackers were black.”

In the Philadelphia suburb of Upper Darby, four black people were arrested for robbing and assaulting an 11-year old boy who was carrying dinner home to his mother. After police posted their pictures on Facebook, the four turned themselves in when parents saw the pictures on TV news.

In Washington, D.C., local police released a video of a flash mob robbery at an upscale Georgetown clothing store. Unlike the journalists in Kentucky, none of the big time, big city reporters seemed overly disturbed.

At the NBC affiliate, National Association of Black Journalists Hall of Fame member Jim Vance opened the report by describing the robbers as a group of teenagers.

Fellow NABJ member Shomari Stone reported from the field, providing a similar description.

The recently released video from Feb. 20 shows a dozen “teenagers” rushing into the upscale True Religion Brand jeans store, gathering thousands of dollars worth of clothing, and rushing out. It does not appear that any of the clerks tried to stop them in any way.

Neither of the reporters mentioned all of the dozen marauders in this attack – and many others like it in Washington and around the country – were black.

Shomari Stone made a national splash in 2011 in downtown Seattle when he and his camera crew came upon an assault in progress. Stone threw his body over the victim to protect him from the beating.

Media Bistro provided the twist: Stone saved a white supremacist: “When the victim, whose arms were covered in swastika tattoos, approached Stone to thank him after the incident, Stone, who is African-American, told the man, ‘Remember to judge the man by his character and not the color of his skin.’”

Now that would make an interesting discussion at the next national meeting of the NABJ.

Black mobs routinely terrorize cities across the country, but the media and government are silent. Read the detailed account of rampant racial crime in “White Girl Bleed A Lot: The Return of Racial Violence to America and How the Media Ignore It.”

Effort to Put CA Coed Bathroom Bill on Ballot Thwarted by County Politicians

http://lastresistance.com/4973/effort-put-ca-coed-bathroom-bill-ballot-thwarted-county-politicians/#1MofWDUmSMuJto9z.99

coed bathroom bill

Last year, California passed a controversial bill that has become known as the Bathroom Bill.  The bill states that anyone, especially students, who claim to be transgender, may choose to use the bathroom of whatever sex they identify with regardless of their true anatomical gender.  The bill not only allows for the use of whatever sex bathroom they choose, but also locker rooms and participation in sports.That means that any teenage boy being controlled by his raging hormones can claim to be a transgendered person who thinks he’s a girl and he will have legal access to use the girls’ bathrooms and locker rooms.  He will be legally allowed to gratify his sexual lusts by watching the girls undress, shower and then get redressed.  He’ll also be legally allowed to flaunt his male anatomy in front of all of the girls and no one can stop him.  A month or so later, he can recant his transgender status and go back to being a sex crazed teenaged boy.

The bill was pushed through the California legislature by gay rights activists who insist that the rights of one LGBT person should trump the rights of thousands of normal people.  They have no concern about the rights of all of the other students who find it sinful and repulsive to be exposed to a pervert or the pervert exposing himself to them.

In January I reported about a petition drive that was launched to place the Bathroom Bill on the general ballot in November.  However, two counties, Tulare and Mono, failed to process the petitions within the 90 day time limit.  The Pacific Justice Institute filed a lawsuit against the county registrars and Debra Bowen, California Secretary of State, asking that the signatures be counted and included in the drive to put the measure on the ballot because they were delivered prior to the deadline.

To get the initiative on the ballot, Privacy for All Students needed 504,760 valid signatures.  The Secretary of State’s office invalidated 131,857 signatures that left the initiative a mere 17,276 signatures short of getting it on the November ballot.  Privacy for All Students was granted permission to review the rejected signatures, but some counties in the state are blocking those efforts.

Gena Gleason of Privacy for All Students told OneNewsNow:

“Until now, the process has been done in secret.  We have not had any access to any of the procedures that the counties have used, and so now that the count has been finalized, we have the opportunity to go into each of the counties and take a look at the signatures that were invalidated.”

It seems that gay activists have successfully infiltrated some county governments and are doing everything possible to prevent Privacy from reviewing their invalidating process and the signatures they turned down.  Until the issue of the Privacy for All Students referendum is resolved, California’s Bathroom Bill – AB 1266 – has been put on hold.

Ralph Peters: “Putin Is Not Crazy Or Delusional; Our President And This Administration Are Delusional”

Peters

LT. COL. RALPH PETERS: Putin establishes facts on the ground. Look, the vote in the Crimean parliament today, begging to be allowed to join Russia — it’s a done deal. The plebiscite coming up in less than two weeks is a done deal. Crimea now belongs to Russia. As I’ve said on FOX before, the only remaining question is how much more of Ukraine Putin will take and when he will take it.

But the weakness, the lack of unity between the EU and the United States — the greed, the financial cowardice — is absolutely stunning, and Putin isn’t going to stop, and he’s going to do worse.

This administration lives in a dream world that negotiations solve everything. This administration, look, they still indulge in this fantasy that you can talk Putin out of Crimea. It is absolutely insane. Putin is not crazy, he’s not delusional; our president and this administration are delusional.

ALISYN CAMEROTA: But it sounds like, Ralph, what you’re saying is that it would take a military build-up of the kind that you just explained in order to get his attention. That’s not something the U.S. is prepared to do.

PETERS: Well, look at the START treaty. There’s no cost. It doesn’t have to increase our defense budget significantly or anything else. But Obama wants that as part of his legacy even though the U.S. gave up valuable dual-use systems. The Russians gave up junk. Stationing forces, offering to station forces in the Baltic and Poland doesn’t have to be extremely costly, and the EU could pony up for that. It doesn’t have to take a huge Reagan-era military build-up, although, by God, Reagan’s build-up certainly worked against the Soviets and brought them to economic collapse. There are innovative solutions and answers, but you have to be brave, you have to have courage, you have to have vision. You can’t pretend that negotiations will solve all the problems when your enemy — and Putin is our enemy — solves them with military force, establishes facts on the ground you cannot change with blather and visa restrictions. This is shameful.

Senator Tim Scott from South Carolina is a shining example of the fact that, contrary to what Barack Obama says, everyone has had the opportunity to make it in America. Everyone has had a fair shot to get their ‘fair share’. It’s only a matter of whether or now and how they choose to take advantage of the opportunity to pursue and obtain the American dream.

Scott opened up his remarks at CPAC this year with one simple question. “How many of you like me believe in the future of America?”

The crowd showed their answer to the question with loud applause. Scott continued saying because he believes in the future of America, his opportunity agenda focuses on people and not big government.

Because I believe in the future of America, my opportunity agenda focuses on the people and not big government.

America is about Americans and self-determination. We are not about the government. The greatest asset we have cannot be found in Washington, DC. Not in Obama’s executive orders do we find the greatness of America. We find them in the wisdom of our founding fathers and the pages of our Constitution. The success of our economy is seen in the size of our ideas, not the size of our tax bills. We need to cut our taxes, not raise them.

Greatness is created in relationships when people pool their resources together and start small business, in garages, coffee shops and at kitchen tables.

Senator Scott then shared his personal experience of going from a troubled kid struggling in school, in fact failing miserable, to being one who worked hard to achieve. He owes a lot of who he is to his mentor who showed him that a life of poverty did not have to be his destiny.

I view waffle fries as freedom fries because that’s how I met my mentor. 

I was losing my way. I had flunked out of high school as a freshman. John Moniz came along at just the right time. That Citadel graduate taught me that you can think your way out of poverty. He taught me if you want to escape poverty, an education can get you out of it.

It taught me that kids, not unions, should be the focus of our education. Parents, not bureaucrats in Washington, should decide the path of their child’s education. When the parents have a choice, the kids have a chance.

We need to set free all the potential for all the kids in our country through school choice.

Scott believes that school choice should include a dual track educational program to address the needs and dreams of those kids who may not wan to go to college. Learning a trade or skill of some sort would give them the chance to ‘earn while they learn’. Doing so will help address the vacancy of what Scott said are 4 million jobs unoccupied due to a lack of people with the skills necessary to fill them.

In closing, Scott gave a nod to the people giving them the credit for making the difference in Washington.

You are the backbone of the conservative movement and men and women like myself stand on your shoulders.

Obamacare blocks patients paying for treatment

Care can be denied ‘even if patient is willing,’ able to cover costs

He is also a photographer whose scenic work has been used commercially.

(This report includes my emphases)

A new report by the Robert Powell Center for Medical Ethics at National Right to Life warns that one of the Obamacare provisions that ex-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Americans would discover if Congress passed the bill is that some seniors will not be allowed to spend as much as they wish on their health care.

The extreme position was revealed in a special report by the NRLC titled “The Affordable Care Act and Health Care Access in the United States,” which analyzes four fundamental policy areas of Obamacare.

It finds several ways that the federal health care law “will drastically limit access to life-saving medical treatment under the law.”

“These four areas include: the ‘excess benefit’ tax coming into effect in 2018, the current exclusion of adequate health insurance plans from the exchanges, present limits on senior citizens’ ability to use their own money for health insurance, and federal limits on the care doctors give their patients to be implemented as soon as 2016.”

Only DemocratsCarol Tobias, president of National Right to Life, said that “for pro-life Americans concerned about the impact on innocent life – both born and unborn – the policies of Obamacare couldn’t be worse.”

“Americans are just as concerned with the law’s impact on our ability to access life-saving medical treatment for ourselves, our family members, and our loved ones as with Obamacare’s funding of abortions. Obamacare is bad medicine for America,” she said.

Pelosi famously said Congress should pass the law so Americans could find out what was in it, and its unpleasant surprises have been shocking citizens ever since.

Only DemocratsThe study finds, for example, that the “Independent Payment Advisory Board,” which starting next January is supposed to make “recommendations to slow the growth in national health expenditures,” will set “quality and efficiency” standards for hospitals and demand that doctors meet government minimums in order to contract with any qualified health insurance plan.

“Essentially, doctors, hospitals, and other health care providers can be told by Washington just what diagnostic tests and medical care are considered to meet ‘quality and efficiency’ standards. These standards will be enforced not just for health care paid for by federally funded programs like Medicare, but also for health care paid for by private citizens and by the health insurance they or their employers purchase,” the study explains.

“These standards are specifically designed to limit the funds that Americans may choose to spend on health care so that they cannot keep up with the rate of medical inflation. Treatment that a doctor and patient deem needed or advisable to save the patient’s life or preserve or improve the patient’s health, but which runs afoul of the imposed standards, can be denied, even if the patient is willing and able to pay for it,” the study warns.

Only DemocratsThe study says that means that Washington “bureaucrats” will set a national standard for care “that is designed to limit what private citizens are allowed to spend to save their own lives.”

“On its face, the law maintains that this limitation does not amount to ‘rationing.’ Indeed, the [law] states, ‘The proposal [by the IPAB] shall not include any recommendations to ration health care.’ … However, the law never actually defines what it means by the word ‘ration.’

“Obamacare authorizes federal bureaucrats to impose limits on what life-saving medical treatments Americans are allowed to get. It may not call this ‘rationing.’ But that doesn’t mean that it isn’t,” the report says.

The report addresses several other limits on life-saving care in Obamacare, including the 40 percent excise tax on some employer-paid premiums.

“Consequently, insurance companies will be forced to impose increasingly severe restraints on policy-holders’ access to medical diagnosis and treatment – limits that will make it hard to get often-expensive treatments essential to combating life-threatening illnesses.”

Only DemocratsThird, “Under Obamacare, consumers using the exchanges may only choose plans offered by insurers who do not allow their customers to spend what government bureaucrats deem an ‘excessive or unjustified’ amount for their health insurance – regardless of whether the insurers offer such plans.”

And fourth, there are provisions “allowing Washington bureaucrats to prevent [senior citizens] from making up the Medicare shortfall with their own funds by limiting their right to spend their own money to obtain insurance less likely to limit treatments that could save their lives.”

Burke Balch, director of the Powell Center, said Obamacare “authorizes Washington bureaucrats to create one uniform, national standard of care that is designed to limit what private citizens are allowed to spend to save their own lives.”

“We are convinced most Americans do not believe that the government should limit the right of Americans to use their own money for health care necessary to save their lives. Yet, that is exactly what Obamacare does,” he said.

Only DemocratsIn the study, Dr. Marc Siegel warns that Obamacare is threatening the future of health care and, consequently, the lives of Americans.

“The kind of insurance that is growing under Obamacare’s fertilizer is the exact kind that was jeopardizing the quality of health care in the first place: the kind that pays for seeing a doctor when you are well, but where guidelines and regulations predominate and choice is restricted when you are seriously ill,” he said.

“How can quality of care not be affected if the antibiotic or statin drug or MRI scan I feel you need isn’t covered under your plan?”

Only DemocratsObamacare’s limits on Americans’ health care often is done through trickery, the report says.

The law says Health and Human Services can “negotiate” premiums to be charged by private Medicare plans, but the government had no power to impose a premium price control on private fee-for-service plans.

“Thus, under the law before Obamacare, senior citizens could choose, if they wished, to add extra money of their own on top of the government payment in order to get health insurance less likely to ration, and Washington bureaucrats could not limit their right to do this,” the report says.

Only DemocratsBut that’s changed. Obamacare has a new provision that says: “Nothing in this section shall be construed as requiring the secretary to accept any or every bid submitted by an MA organization under this subsection.”

“This means,” says the report, “that the pre-existing law that effectively forbade the secretary to exclude a private fee-for-service plan on the basis that CMS considers its premiums to be too high has been trumped by the new ability of the secretary to reject ‘any or every’ premium bid submitted by a private fee-for-service plan.

“Thus, under Obamacare, Washington bureaucrats are given the authority to limit or even eliminate – senior citizens’ ability, if they choose, to spend their own money on health insurance less likely to ration.”

John Bolton: Our Biggest National Security Crisis is Barack Obama


Townhall Banner

Speaking at the 2014 Conservative Political Action Conference Thursday morning, Ambassador John Bolton slammed President Obama’s foreign policy approach and what he called the Obama doctrine.

“Our biggest national security crisis is Barack Obama,” Bolton said.

Bolton touched on the ongoing crisis with Russia but classified the 9/11 terror attack in Benghazi as Barack Obama’s biggest foreign policy failure.

“Libya is the paradigm of the Obama doctrine’s failure,” Bolton said. “Since Benghazi, Obama has done nothing to avenge Chris Stevens death.”

Bolton added that Stevens was a personal respresentative of President Obama in Libya, yet nothing has been done to bring his killers to justice.

“Under Barack Obama, you can get away with murdering his personal representative and get away scot-free,” Bolton said.

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: Did you see this video report from the Wall Street Journal?  “Russia Taking Over Ukraine’s News Media.”  And, by the way, we must have great audio sound bites coming up.  The two infobabes at Russian TV, one quit on the air, and the American media is just livid at her.  And the other one, who criticized Putin on the air, has been sent to get-your-mind-right camp. And, apparently, it didn’t take very long ’cause she’s back with her mind right, now spreading the Putin gospel.  It’s incredible.  It’s all coming up here.

There’s a video report from the Wall Street Journal: “Russia Taking Over Ukraine’s News Media.” Pretty outrageous.  I didn’t know that Putin even had an FCC.  He’s put hall monitors in his own media, like they want to do here.  But seriously, folks, this Ukraine business, I like to always find ways to put things in perspective that might be persuasive.  And this Ukraine business — we had a call yesterday from a very articulate woman, an African-American, who said, “Look, this Ukraine business isn’t gonna change anybody’s mind on Obama. This Ukraine business is esoteric.  You gotta talk about those black pastors that have 25,000 signatures now on a petition to impeach Eric Holder.”

I said, “We did, I talked about it twice.”  But her point was nobody cares about this stuff.  It isn’t gonna change any low-information voter’s minds.  And sadly, she’s right.  But that doesn’t mean that we don’t find a way nevertheless to make it connect.  That’s my constant struggle, is to take all this esoteric stuff, make the complex understandable.  And I think the way to understand Ukraine is to boil it down to its essence, to step back and think about what we are witnessing.  This is the KGB vs. ACORN.

Now, what do you think is gonna happen in this conflict?  We have a top KGB officer — by the way, I have a little thing I printed here for the Stack of Stuff.  It is a picture of Reagan in Moscow — it says 1988 — at a summit.  He’s standing outside the Kremlin, and Gorbachev is there and other Soviet officials, and there is a man disguised as a tourist with a camera around his neck.  It’s Putin!  The KGB showed up as families that the Russians, the Soviets, wanted Reagan to meet.  And these KGB people pretending to be families supposedly hit Reagan with accusatory questions, just like the left would do here if they got hold of people they didn’t like on television or something.

And Putin is there with blond hair.  It says it’s Putin, and it’s a side shot, but not full-on side, maybe a little diagonal front-side shot.  But it looks like Putin’s face with a lot of blond hair.  Not hippie hair.  Nice, combed hair over the ears, got a camera, looks just like a tourist.  It’s Putin!  Pretending to be a Russian family.  And apparently the Reagan people knew it, because the story says that there are people surrounding Reagan in the American entourage a little upset at the questions Reagan’s getting.  “Ah, don’t worry, we knew this.  These are not families.  They’re all KGB families.”

So what we’ve got here in the Ukraine, we have the KGB, a top KGB, not former, because no one ever leaves the KGB.  We have a top KGB officer, Vladimir Putin, versus a failed community organizer, Barack Obama.  Who do you think is gonna come out on top on this?  The KGB vs. ACORN.  That’s what we’re witnessing.  That’s what Ukraine is.  What has been Obama’s boldest move so far?  To give the Ukrainian government a billion dollars.  Ostensibly loan guarantees, but it’s a handout.  That billion dollars is gonna end up in Putin’s back pocket.  It’s just enough for them to be able to pay their natural gas bill they have to get from Putin.

So Obama is paying Putin, essentially, not Ukraine.  Putin, a billion dollars, so Ukrainians can continue the free flow of natural gas, and we’ve thrown in Crimea.  Who was it, Governor Cuomo, somebody said, “Give Saddam a couple of islands, he’ll go away.”  Somebody said here, “Give Putin Crimea, he’ll go away.” So a billion dollars and Crimea in the battle between the KGB and ACORN.  Now, what is the Russian word for “shaft”?  Because that’s exactly what we’re gonna get here.  It’s pathetic, folks.  It is laughable and it is pathetic.  The Putin photo is legit.  He was pretending to be a KGB family, a Soviet family, just a guy, a father with a camera.  (laughing)

John Bolton is at CPAC today.  CPAC opened up today.  John Bolton said, “under Obama you can get away with murdering his personal representative,” Ambassador Chris Stevens in Benghazi, “and get away scot-free.”  See, folks, this is the kind of simple devastating truth that could eventually go into some of the most successful, effective political ads we could ever see.  Can you imagine a Republican candidate running against whoever the next Democrat is and equate that next Democrat with Obama, and say, under Obama or under the Democrats, you can get away with murdering their personal representatives and get away scot-free.  It’s amazing.

Charles Krauthammer on Obama Foreign Policy – DELUSIONAL

Kraut

Charles Krauthammer lays out the situation in the Ukraine – and US foreign policy in general – in single syllable words. Until he gets to “delusional”.

This is astonishing. Our leaders are unable to muster anything that the Europeans will join that will hurt Putin.

We can remember back to 2008 when one of the big reasons we were supposed to be thankfully voting for Senator Barack Obama was that adults would be in charge of foreign policy. No more “cowboy antics”. World leaders were going to respect the US. Heck, the people around the world would like us. It would be spring in the Middle East. Muslims would stop killing their neighbors, and each other, and a new era of peace would be ushered in.

Newly elected President Obama was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for just being, well, not-Bush. He was a visionary. He was the most intelligent guy in the room. He may not have been the “Prince of Peace”, but he sure was the “President of Peace”.

He was everything. He was what we’ve been waiting for.

We apologize for inflicting the following on you, but it’s important we remember just how narcissistic our Imperial President really is.

Our head hurts. It’s not like we weren’t warned. The amazing thing is that he got away with this sham twice. Shame on our country, and most of all, shame on the three million people who voted for John McCain and then sat on their couches and refused to vote for Mitt Romney because he wasn’t [fill in the blank] enough.

Krauthammer is right, delusional, but Charles doesn’t go far enough. It’s not just his foreign policy, domestic policy is no better. But that’s a subject for another day.

Whatever you have on your calendar this year, come November do not sit on your couch. Go to the polls and vote against any Democrat that is running in your races. Don’t just vote against the Democrat, vote for the Republican even if you have to hold your nose to do it. The only way to stop the agenda is take back the Senate.

If we don’t take the Senate you can be sure Benghazi will be forgotten. The IRS will not only continue to run roughshod over taxpayers’ rights, they’ll ramp up the attack. When other federal agencies run by long time Democrat “civil servants” see that nobody does anything about the IRS they’ll get in the game too.

Before November work for the Republican in your state/district. On election day VOTE and vote Republican.

Your children and grandchildren are depending on you

A Run On Ammunition Has Begun: “Russia Has Reportedly Halted All Exports To The US Of Russian Made Ammunition”


ak-ammo

Follow Joe For America on Facebook!

In recent months ammunition has slowly begun appearing on store shelves at major retailers in the United States. But after nearly two years of shortages that had ammunition manufacturers running their factories 24 hours a day, 7 days a week because of consumer demand and massive government purchases, it appears that another supply pipeline may have been cut.

If you don’t already have it then prepare to go without or pay double the price or more in coming days and weeks:

In the wake of the Sandy Hook tragedy and fears of new control control legislation from the Obama administration, extreme shortages of ammunition have been sustained over the past 12-24 months, as panicked Americans have raided the shelves of Cabelas and gun-shows across the country buying literally every round they can get their hands on.

Combined with multi-billion round purchases from gov’t 3 letter acronyms such as the DHS and FBI, (including even the USPS and IRS), the shortages have continued even as manufacturers have responded by drastically increasing production.

Over the past 6-12 months, shortages of some calibers such as 7.62 used in the popular AK-47 semi-automatic weapon have been alleviated somewhat via massive imports of Russian production.

That is about to change.

The largest wholesale gun & ammo distributors in the US have informed us in private conversation today that a massive scramble is on for all 7.62 as Russia has reportedly halted all exports to the US of Russian made ammunition.

Our distributor source informed us that yesterday they had several hundred thousand rounds of Russian made 7.62 TulAmmo, and after receiving word early today on the halt of Russian exports to the US,they have been completely wiped out of every last round in the past 10 hours!

We have only several days supply of 7.62 on hand currently at SDBullion under normal market conditions, and expect it will disappear as quickly as 22 LR once word of the Russian export halt spreads.

While Obama and Kerry threaten Russia with economic sanctions over the Ukranian crisis, it appears that Putin has quietly taken the first step and launched economic sanctions of his own against the US.

We have a feeling that we are seeing only the beginning.

Via Silver Doctors

If this report is accurate, then the motivation may not necessarily be  to cut off ammunition to U.S. gun owners. Perhaps Russia is just ensuring that they have plenty of ammo on hand in the event that a Russian invasion of the Ukraine is initiated by Vladimir Putin.

Whatever the case, this report highlights, yet again, how important it is to have necessary supplies on hand before a major crisis, announcement or political shift.

When the Fukushima radiation plumes began making their way towards the United States and the Department of Homeland Security announced that Americans should have Potassium Iodide on hand to help fight thyroid absorption Americans across the country panicked. The price of a single bottle of KI went from the manufacturer suggested retail price of around $20 to a whopping $200 per bottle on auction web sites.

After Sandy Hook, as the anti-gun faction of our government began moving to restrict the ownership of firearms and ammunition, prices skyrocketed 300% and shelves were emptied within days.

And, as we’ve seen during critical emergencies like Hurricanes Katrina and Sandy, as well as the ice storms that hit the eastern half of the United States in the last few months, grocery stores were cleaned out within hours.

If you’re one second late, you’ll be out of luck.

Develop a comprehensive preparedness plan today and start stocking up.

Executive Orders & Internment Camps: The Groundwork Has Been Laid for Martial Law in the Event of a National Emergency


 

I admit that I have been like many you in that I have written off certain reports as over-reactive. I don’t know how much of that perspective has changed, but I am starting to take a closer look at these well documented reports.

You need to read the following with enough skepticism to keep your guard up, but open enough to learn something. I do believe;

  • President Obama is capable of what is detailed in this report.

  • The Left has been up to such actions for a long time.

  • The Left has made it clear they want to do away with our Representative Republic and replace it with a European style Socialist Democracy.

The following is very “doable”. I’m keeping an open mind.

Posted by

The ground work has already been laid, that in the event of a national emergency, with a mere stroke of Obama’s pen this is how martial law could play out.  This is, in part, what Justice Antonin Scalia referenced last month.

Here are the Executive orders already in place in the event of a national crisis:

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10990

Allows the government to take over all modes of transportation and control of highways and seaports.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10995

Allows the government to seize and control the communication media.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10997

Allows the government to take over all electrical power, gas, petroleum, fuels and minerals.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10998

Allows the government to seize all means of transportation, including personal cars, trucks or vehicles of any kind and total control over all highways, seaports, and waterways.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 10999

Allows the government to take over all food resources and farms.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11000

Allows the government to mobilize civilians into work brigades under government supervision.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11001

Allows the government to take over all health, education and welfare functions.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11002

Designates the Postmaster General to operate a national registration of all persons.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11003

Allows the government to take over all airports and aircraft, including commercial aircraft.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11004

Allows the Housing and Finance Authority to relocate communities, build new housing with public funds, designate areas to be abandoned, and establish new locations for populations.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11005

Allows the government to take over railroads, inland waterways and public storage facilities.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11051

Specifies the responsibility of the Office of Emergency Planning and gives authorization to put all Executive Orders into effect in times of increased international tensions and economic or financial crisis.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11310

Grants authority to the Department of Justice to enforce the plans set out in Executive Orders, to institute industrial support, to establish judicial and legislative liaison, to control all aliens, to operate penal and correctional institutions, and to advise and assist the President.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11049

Assigns emergency preparedness function to federal departments and agencies, consolidating 21 operative Executive Orders issued over a fifteen year period.

EXECUTIVE ORDER 11921

Allows the Federal Emergency Preparedness Agency to develop plans to establish control over the mechanisms of production and distribution, of energy sources, wages, salaries, credit and the flow of money in U.S. financial institution in any undefined national emergency. It also provides that when a state of emergency is declared by the President, Congress cannot review the action for six months. The Federal Emergency Management Agency has broad powers in every aspect of the nation. General Frank Salzedo, chief of FEMA’s Civil Security Division stated in a 1983 conference that he saw FEMA’s role as a “new frontier in the protection of individual and governmental leaders from assassination, and of civil and military installations from sabotage and/or attack, as well as prevention of dissident groups from gaining access to U.S. opinion, or a global audience in times of crisis.” FEMA’s powers were consolidated by President Carter to incorporate the…

National Security Act of 1947

Allows for the strategic relocation of industries, services, government and other essential economic activities, and to rationalize the requirements for manpower, resources and production facilities.

1950 Defense Production Act

Gives the President sweeping powers over all aspects of the economy.

Act of August 29, 1916

Authorizes the Secretary of the Army, in time of war, to take possession of any transportation system for transporting troops, material, or any other purpose related to the emergency.

International Emergency Economic Powers Act

Enables the President to seize the property of a foreign country or national. These powers were transferred to FEMA in a sweeping consolidation in 1979.

There over 800 prison camps in the United States, all fully operational and ready to receive prisoners. They are all staffed and even surrounded by full-time guards, but they’re mostly empty. These camps are to be operated by FEMA (Federal Emergency Management Agency) should Martial Law need to be implemented in the United States and all it would take is a presidential signature on a proclamation and the attorney general’s signature on a warrant to which a list of names is attached.

The Rex 84 Program was established on the reasoning that if a “mass exodus” of illegal aliens crossed the Mexican/US border, they would be quickly rounded up and detained in detention centers by FEMA. Rex 84 allowed many military bases to be closed down and to be turned into prisons.

Operation Cable Splicer and Garden Plot are the two sub programs which will be implemented once the Rex 84 program is initiated for its proper purpose. Garden Plot is the program to control the population. Cable Splicer is the program for an orderly takeover of the state and local governments by the federal government. FEMA is the executive arm of the coming police state and thus will head up all operations. The Presidential Executive Orders already listed on the Federal Register also are part of the legal framework for this operation.

The camps all have railroad facilities as well as roads leading to and from the detention facilities. Many also have an airport nearby. The majority of the camps can house a population of 20,000 prisoners. Currently, the largest of these facilities is just outside of Fairbanks, Alaska. The Alaskan facility is a massive mental health facility and can hold approximately 2 million people.

One of my readers named John Patriot asked where are the FEMA camps, so here are the locations:

Ft. Irwinview 2 from higher upview 3 from higher up with Edwards AFB, George AFB (Closed?) and MCLB Barstow and Ft. Irwin in perspective – Ft. Irwin is a FEMA facility near Barstow. This base is designated inactive but has staffed camp. The surrounding support from Edwards AFB, George AFB, and MCLB Barstow would indicate this is a high importance facility. MCLB Barstow has an interesting mark on its helicoptor pad, which looks suspiciously like an Iron Cross. Check it out. Another view. Irwin is a remote mountain region south of Death Valley National Monument. Designated as inactive, there is a camp at this facility aprox. 30 miles from I-15 in Barstow.

Sacramento – Army Depot – The Sacramento Army Depot (SAAD) was a U.S. Army support facility that operated as a repair center for high-tech military hardware, such as night vision goggles, electronic circuit boards, and radium-dial instrumentation. The 1988 Base Closure and Realignment Commission closed Sacramento Army Depot. On March 3, 1995, the Depot officially closed.

In the Fall of 1994 Packard Bell, the computer company whose plant in Northridge was damaged by an earthquake decided to relocate a 3,000 employee assembly plant and distribution center at the Depot. As of April, 1996, Packard Bell had 3,500 employees working at its Depot facility (down from 5,000 in August 1995) and in February 1998 there were 3,100 employees, in October 1998 3,400 employees. This is the only Packard Bell manufacturing plant in the U.S.

In mid-2000, Packard Bell NEC, Inc. announced it would shut down all manufacturing operations by year’s end and layoff 1,400 of its 1,550 workers at the former Sacramento Army Depot.

OTHER LOCATIONS IN THE UNITED STATES

There are many other locations not listed above that are worthy of consideration as a possible detention camp site, but due to space limitations and the time needed to verify, could not be included here. Virtually all military reservations, posts, bases, stations, & depots can be considered highly suspect (because it is “federal” land). Also fitting this category are “Regional Airports” and “International Airports” which also fall under federal jurisdiction and have limited-access areas. Mental hospitals, closed hospitals & nursing homes, closed military bases, wildlife refuges, state prisons, toxic waste dumps, hotels and other areas all have varying degrees of potential for being a detention camp area. The likelihood of a site being suspect increases with transportation access to the site, including airports/airstrips, railheads, navigable waterways & ports, interstate and US highways. Some facilities are “disguised” as industrial or commercial properties, camouflaged or even wholly contained inside large buildings (Indianapolis) or factories. Many inner-city buildings left vacant during the de-industrialization of America have been quietly acquired and held, sometimes retrofitted for their new uses.

In a previous article I named names of DHS Fusion Center Intelligence Officers and Regional Directors and their Contact Information. These are the many heads of the hydra that must be neutralized to effectively counter act any information being sent to, or received from by Washington D.C.

In order to avoid the chaos, different state militia groups must be organized and a SOP must already be in place prior to implementation of martial law.

EXCLUSIVE: Why Persecuted Is A Can’t-Miss Film


Liberty Aliance Mast Head

12172410-persecutedmovieonesheet

OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA

by Tim Young

Persecuted is the epic story of a preacher who takes an incredible stand against the United States’ attempt to regulate all religion. Little did he know that his freedom of speech would soon be limited by the evil tactics of a United States Senator… and even the President.

The film, produced by Guy Frederickson, the Academy Award-winning producer of The Godfather, has a cast of Hollywood veterans, including Christian comedian Brad Stine, Fox News’ Gretchen Carlson, James Remar (Dexter, Django Unchained), Dean Stockwell (Air Force One, Battlestar Galactica), Roaul Trujilo (Riddick, Apocalypto, Cowboys & Aliens), Bruce Davison (X-Men, X2), Dr. James Higgins, and Senator Fred Thompson.

Not only does the film have a top-shelf cast, the crew also comes from blockbuster productions such as Breaking Bad and The Avengers. Liberty Alliance had the pleasure of speaking exclusively with Dr. Higgins, Senator Thompson and writer/director Daniel Lusko.

“The quality of the story and our pursuit in the end was to make the best film with the best actors, best crew and best score available,” said writer and director Daniel Lusko.

Lusko penned this critical story after waking up inspired in the middle of the night. “I woke up and was hit with this scenario where an uncompromising man stands up to a government who will do anything to silence him,” says Lusko. “The U.S. government in the film is trying to pass legislation which requires all religious groups to treat others with the same amount of value and respect in the interest of national security. Essentially you’re no longer free to stand up for what you believe, and Christians are only able to say that Jesus is ONE of the ways, not THE WAY.”

According to Dr. Higgins, who plays the President in the film, the film reaches out to more than just people of faith. “The story is bigger than just a Christian-based movie. The main character is being set up for a downfall because he doesn’t agree with his freedoms being taken away. That’s why it’ll resonate with all people.”

Sen. Fred Thompson, who plays a priest and father of the main character in the film agrees with Lusko and Higgins about the film’s importance. “It’s a different take on the church/state issue. I can’t think of another movie that’s dealt with that issue in this way.”

When asked if the intense and at times scary scenarios in the movie could play out in the real world, Sen. Thompson replied, “If a human can imagine it, it can happen. Is it likely? No. But can it? Yes.”

Persecuted is being heralded as one of the few faith-based films that truly crosses over into mainstream Hollywood. Its acting, cinematography and score is unparalleled by many and its story is simply gripping.

It’s a can’t-miss film that everyone should see.

The film will be shown at CPAC 2014 on Friday night at 8pm and Saturday for an encore presentation at 1pm.

Persecuted opens in limited release on May 9. To bring the film to your college or town, visit http://www.persecutedmovie.com/tickets

President Clinton and President Obama Promised to Protect Disarmed Ukraine


Rush's Banner

http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/daily/2014/03/05/president_clinton_and_president_obama_promised_to_protect_disarmed_ukraine

March 05, 2014

RUSH: This is getting out of hand now.  Hillary Clinton is saying that Vladimir Putin is a Nazi, and Putin is saying that the Ukrainians are Nazis, and Tony Kornheiser says that the whole state of Arizona is Nazis.  The only person that’s not a Nazi anymore is me.  This is progress, ladies and gentlemen.  It’s like a Mel Brooks movie.  I mean, everybody is just throwing this name out.  And of course Putin is acting like Hilter did.  You gotta give Hillary that, with what he’s doing here.  I mean, it’s gonna irritate some progressives who think that Putin has the right to do whatever he wants to do.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH:  Ladies and gentlemen, this is hilarious.  CNN, the rest of the Drive-Bys are all in hysterics that a United Nations envoy was supposedly almost kidnapped and threatened by an armed man in Crimea and told to get out of the country.  “A UN envoy!  That’s unacceptable! Who do they think they are, threatening to kidnap and kick out of the country a UN envoy?” I’m not kidding.  The media is just beside themselves over this kind of an insult.

I want to mention something here that came up late in the program yesterday, and I’m repeating it here at a different time in the program hoping to reach more people with this ’cause the Drive-Bys are not talking about this.  I mentioned yesterday that Bill Clinton in 1994 (and then the Obama administration in 2009, reaffirmed it) gave official diplomatic assurances to Ukraine that their borders would be safe in exchange for the Ukrainians gutting their army and completely doing away with their sizable nuclear deterrent.

This has not been reported other than the UK Daily Mail has now published an article that reminds us that that wasn’t all Obama did for Ukraine.  But the point is… Because the media isn’t telling you, I want to stress this again. As you’re watching what happened, as you watch us act outraged that Putin would do this, there were the number of signatories to this agreement.  The UK, John Major and the Ukrainian prime minister. It was Boris Yeltsin for the Russian Federation, and Bill Clinton, and there was the ChiCom leader.

There were five of them, and they signed. They promised. They promised Ukraine that their borders would not be attacked, that their sovereignty would not be challenged, and that they would be considered for admission to the European Union. There was all this stuff dangling carrots if they would just gut their army and do away with their nuclear deterrent — and Ukraine did.  That agreement was reaffirmed in 2009 by Barack Obama.

So the Ukrainians cannot defend themselves against this encroachment by Russia, which is a violation of that agreement, by the way.

BREAK TRANSCRIPT

RUSH: I want to close the loop on this Ukraine thing, get into the IRS, and then come back to Ukraine with more details on what’s happening.  But just to remind you, ’cause I think this is huge.  I think Ukraine bought it hook, line, and sinker.  They gave up their military. They had a nuclear arsenal.  They gave it up in exchange for a promise that their borders would not be invaded and their sovereignty would remain intact.

Putin wasn’t a signatory, but Boris Yeltsin was, and he signed for the Russian Federation, which is still the governing body before Putin puts the Soviet Union back together.  It was Bill Clinton that got the whole thing started, and this whole thing was reaffirmed in 2009.  Now, the UK Daily Mail today adds information to this.  Their headline is: “Flashback: Senator Obama Pushed Bill That Helped Destroy More Than 15,000 TONS of Ammunition, 400,000 Small Arms and 1,000 Anti-Aircraft Missiles in Ukraine.”

In addition to the gutting of the military and getting rid of the nukes, it was Obama as a senator who pushed legislation that further weakened Ukraine.  From the article: “As a US senator, Barack Obama won $48 million in federal funding to help Ukraine destroy thousands of tons of guns and ammunition — weapons which are now unavailable to the Ukrainian army as it faces down Russian President Vladimir Putin during his invasion of Crimea.”

Because they don’t really have an army, not much of one. They gutted it.  They didn’t get rid of it; they just gutted it — all on the assurance, reaffirmed again in 2009 by Obama.  Obama reassured them. This was as president. It was as a senator that he engaged in legislation that further weakened them. In 2009 he reaffirmed, “Don’t worry, we will protect you — and so will the ChiComs, and so will the UK, and the Russians have promised that they will not invade you.”

That’s all out the window now, and the media is not reporting that.

“In August 2005, just seven months after his swearing-in, Obama traveled to Donetsk in Eastern Ukraine with then-Indiana Republican Senator Dick Lugar, touring a conventional weapons site. The two met in Kiev with President Victor Yushchenko, making the case that an existing Cooperative Threat Reduction Program covering the destruction of nuclear weapons should be expanded to include artillery, small arms, anti-aircraft weapons, and conventional ammunition of all kinds.”

Obama and Luger “returned to Washington and declared that the US should devote funds to speed up the destruction of more than 400,000 small arms, 1,000 anti-aircraft missiles, and more than 15,000 tons of ammunition.”  Obama’s been disarming United States as quickly as he can, but he offered money, $48 million to Ukraine to downsize.  At the time, Obama said, “We need to eliminate these stockpiles for the safety of the Ukrainian people and people around world, by keeping them out of conflicts around the world.”

Now, stop and think.  Folks, this kind of thing really matters when you’re a guy like Putin and you’re sizing up your advisory, and you’re looking at a guy, and you see Barack Hussein Obama doing this. Now, I have in my Stack of Stuff that Obama was at an elementary school recently.  I have here in my formerly nicotine-stained fingers the pictures, and Obama’s latest photo op shows why the global community doesn’t take him seriously.

He’s sitting on a blue, oval-shaped rug, and he’s holding a young student with the teacher sitting nearby, 10 or so other little kids.  He’s in the classroom.  While all this is going on, if you’re Vladimir Putin and you look at this… Remember how a picture of George W. Bush reading to a third grade class? Remember how that was portrayed as, “My God, what kind of guy is this? The World Trade Center’s attacked, and this guy’s reading to kids, and he still reads?”

And look at this.  I’ll tell you what I’ll do.  I’m gonna zoom in on the Dittocam, turn off to do it, zoom out. I’ll just show you this, just so you know.  The reason that I think that this is important is because you always have to look at the way our enemies see this.  The camera’s back on, and there’s be the picture.  In fact, the picture below it is Obama then with his press conference, announcing some things about Ukraine at the same place.

He’s standing on the same rug there that he is sitting on with those kids.  It’s an exact replay of what happened with Bush in the classroom in Florida.  Now, the point is if you’re Vladimir Putin and you know that your adversary is Barack Obama, and Barack Obama has personally traveled to Ukraine to disarm them — if you know that your adversary’s Barack Obama who as senator pushed legislation to disarm Ukraine.

He paid money, $4 million to do it, and reaffirmed a 1995 agreement or ’94 agreement pour basically Ukraine to disarm — what are you gonna do?  You know who your adversary. You know he’s not gonna stop you.  All you have to do is look at Syria or anywhere in the world. Look at the way Obama’s handling Iraq or Afghanistan.  Obama’s running around getting us out of every country. Look at Chuck Hagel proposing downsizing US military to pre-World War II levels.

What would you do if you’re a bad guy bent on reassembling your giant Soviet Union?  So the Ukrainians have no way to stop this militarily, if they were inclined.  And Obama after traveling to Kiev and not only affirming the Clinton agreement in ’94, but taking it further by eliminating 400,000 small arms, 1,000 anti-aircraft missiles, and more than 15,000 tons of ammunition and then says we need to eliminate these stockpiles for the safety of the Ukrainian people.  Now, stop and think.  If you are Vladimir Putin and you hear the leader of the United States equate disarmament with safety, you have gotta be rubbing your hands together so fast that you can’t believe your good luck.  You are up against an adversary who thinks that safety is you disarming.

Let me put it a different way.  You’re Putin, you’re watching Obama, and you’re up against a guy, Obama, who believes his safety is related to him getting rid of his military.  He goes over there and doubles down on Ukrainian weakness, disarmament, and then claims Ukraine is safer.  If you’re Putin, what are you gonna do?  This is absolute lunacy.  This is a world governed by the aggressive use of force; not doctors, nurses, and clean water.  It’s not governed by bipartisanship and UN resolutions and all that happy horse manure.  This is a world governed by the aggressive use of force, and Obama is celebrating he’s just made Ukraine stronger and safer by completely disarming it.

Forget Putin’s view; what does that tell you about Obama?  And then this little statement:  We need to eliminate these stockpiles in Ukraine for the safety of the Ukrainian people. What, are they gonna shoot themselves?  By keeping these stockpiles and the Ukrainians out of conflicts around the world.  So I guess it’s the Ukrainians were who Obama thought might begin a worldwide march toward domination.  So he had to disarm them, take every means of defense away from them, after promising ’em they wouldn’t need it, then this happens.  Now, I wanted to go through this all again, because you are not being told this. If your only source of news is the Drive-Bys, you are not being told any of this.

About that $2,500 savings we were supposed to get on our health insurance


Joe the Plumber Banner

Remember when candidate Barack Obama told us that if we liked our health insurance plan we could keep it? At the same time he was also telling us that our astronomical insurance bills – surely a legacy of Bush administration policies – would be going down by $2,500 per year.

Everybody has made a big deal out of the “keep it” part of the promises but for some reason, nobody has broached the $2,500 savings that’s mystically turned into a premium increase of up to $5,000. Well, nobody asked until last week.

Last week, at a town hall in Mankato, Minn., lawmakers, Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) and Rep. Tim Walz (D-MN), laughed at that very question.

You’ll note that after laughing at the question, neither one of the Democrats in question actually answered it.

What we want to know is why hasn’t the Republican leadership been hammering this ObamaPromise? Where is John Boehner or Mitch Daniels? Maybe they’re busy trying to hustle the Chamber of Commerce for another $50 million to fight off the Tea Party or trying to find a way to pass an immigration amnesty bill.

What we do know is that Republicans should, at EVERY opportunity, pound any and every Democrat with the Democrats repeated lies about ObamaCare. That should be the first topic, the last topic, and the topic in the middle of every conversation.

Come on Republicans, get with the program. Let’s see you force some transparency on the President and his party. After all, you’ve all had time to read the bill now so you know what’s in it.

Do something about it. Now. And every day until November 5th.

Doc Who Killed Woman in Botched Abortion Injures Yet Another Woman

by Cheryl Sullenger | Germantown, MD | LifeNews.com | 3/5/14 12:05 PM

After little sleep and a heavy patient load, LeRoy Carhart sent another abortion patient to the hospital yesterday (March 4, 2014) for treatment of apparently life-threatening complications.

An ambulance arrived at about 4:00 p.m. in response for a call for emergency assistance. It transported a female patient to a local hospital. Carhart was not seen with his patient during the incident.

carhart14Due to a snowstorm, Carhart was unable to see women scheduled for multi-day late-term abortions as usual on Sunday. Carhart was seen by witnesses at the Germantown Reproductive Health Services abortion clinic between 5:00 and 11:00 p.m. on Monday then was back at the clinic 9:45 a.m. Tuesday morning where at least 16 abortion patients were seen.

“It appears that Carhart was once again conducting surgeries on women in a fatigued state, as he is known to do. He brags of never taking a day off. At the age of 72, we believe he is endangering women with his irresponsible behavior, and this latest medical emergency in Germantown is more evidence of that,” said Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue.

As far back as 1993, Carhart was ordered by the Nebraska Attorney General to stop “interrupting or delaying a surgical procedure including abortion due to or as a result of his exhaustion or fatigue.”

carhar4bMedical emergencies at Carhart’s abortion facilities in Maryland and in Bellevue, Nebraska, have become more frequent in recent months, leading to concerns that he is unfit to continue practicing medicine.

Dates of other incidents involving Carhart documented by Operation Rescue include:

November 30, 2013, Bellevue, NE: Patient suffered 2nd trimester abortion complications.

November 26, 2013, Germantown, MD: Patient required emergency surgery. (Video with 911 recording)

July 9, 2013, Germantown, MD: Patient hemorrhaged. (Video with 911 recording)

February 7, 2013, Germantown, MD: Patient Jennifer Morbelli died of 3rd trimester abortion complications. (Autopsy Report)

March 31, 2012, Bellevue, NE: Patient heard moaning and screaming during 911 call (Video with 911 recording.)

In 2005, Carhart was involved in the death of 19-year old Christin Gilbert from complications of a third trimester abortion at a late-term abortion clinic in Kansas.

Despite all these abortion-related medical emergencies and deaths, medical boards in Maryland and Nebraska have been reticent to hold Carhart accountable, perhaps due to his strong ties to U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius.

Operation Rescue obtained and published photos of Carhart partying with Sebelius during her term as Governor of Kansas when Carhart worked for the notorious late-term abortionist George Tiller in Wichita. Tiller was a large campaign contributor to Sebelius campaigns. Sebelius hosted that secret party to honor Tiller and his entire abortion clinic staff, according to a woman who was present at the soiree.

Sebelius acted to protect Tiller and other abortionists in Kansas — including Carhart – from investigations launched by then-Attorney General Phill Kline and the Kansas Board of Healing Arts.

“I suspect that medical board officials fear political fallout or even retribution from Secretary Sebelius if they take significant action against Carhart,” said Newman. “If that is the case, they are responsible for the injury or death of at least six women that we know about in the past few months. It’s time for them to put politics aside and exercise their duty to protect the public from Carhart and his dangerous abortion practices.”

Operation Rescue is in the process of filing a complaint with the Maryland Board of Physicians demanding an emergency suspension of Carhart’s medical license pending a full investigation into the recent rash of abortion injuries.

Texas Takes Stand: 9 out of 10 Voters Want Obamacare Repealed and Welfare Recipients Drug Tested

Just because one part of the country has seemingly lost its mind and is willing to give up their freedom for the promise of more security doesn’t mean everyone is on board.

In Texas, where voters took to the polls Tuesday night, a completely different set of ideas is at play. And if nationwide sentiment is any indication, other conservative and libertarian leaning states will soon follow.

Though only about half of the votes have been tallied so far, the people of Texas have spoken. It’s a roar, in fact. Voters are standing in unison and have overwhelmingly approved a variety of propositions that may well send shivers down the spines of supporters of things like universal health care, rampant welfare dependency, special privileges and gun rights.

The following results speak for themselves.

First on the chopping block is the Patient Affordable Care Act, more commonly known as Obamacare.  Apparently, 93% of Texans don’t take well to having the federal government mandate what they should or shouldn’t buy with the penalty for non-compliance being IRS harassment and prison time:

The Affordable Care Act, also known as “Obamacare”, should be repealed.

This one might be a little scary for those folks who spend their lives on their couches smoking weed or mainlining heroin while hard working Americans pay for their dope:

Texas recipients of taxpayer-funded public assistance should be subject to random drug testing as a condition of receiving benefits.

texas-votes-welfare

You’ll never see the U.S. Congress vote for this, because they’re way too special:

All elected officials and their staff should be subject to the same laws, rules, regulations, and ordinances as their constituents.

texas-votes-official

If you’re an anti-gunner this is where you should stop reading:

Texas should support Second Amendment liberties by expanding locations where concealed handgun license-holders may legally carry.

texas-votes-chl

It’s a sad state of affairs when the public has to actually vote on their right to pray in public places. Isn’t that covered by the First Amendment? Just in case it isn’t Texas will make sure you can worship and pray as you see fit:

Texans should be free to express their religious beliefs, including prayer, in public places.

texas-votes-religion

Silly Texans. Didn’t anyone tell you that it’s government, not businesses, that creates jobs and grows the economy?

Texas should abolish the state franchise tax, also known as the margins tax, to encourage business growth.

texas-votes-taxes2

Common sense laws and regulations. What a novel concept.

There’s a reason why Americans all over the country are flocking to Texas in the hopes of finding the American Dream that has been lost in so many other parts of the Union.

Russia Threatens To Abandon US Dollar And Start Dumping US Debt


FreedomOutpost_Masthead

http://freedomoutpost.com/2014/03/russia-threatens-abandon-us-dollar-start-dumping-us-debt/#OAJegu8HQKe25kmx.99

The Obama administration and the hotheads in Congress are threatening to hit Russia with “economic sanctions” for moving troops into Crimea.  Yes, those sanctions would sting a little bit, but what our politicians should be made aware of is the fact that Russian officials are promising “to respond” if economic sanctions are imposed on them.  As you will read about below, one top Kremlin adviser is even suggesting that Russia could abandon the U.S. dollar and start dumping U.S. debt.  In addition, he is also suggesting that if sanctions are imposed that Russian companies would not repay the debts that they owe U.S. banks.  Needless to say, Russia could do far more economic damage to the United States than the United States could do to Russia.  The U.S. financial system relies on the fact that the rest of the planet is going to use our currency to trade with one another and lend gigantic piles of it back to us at super low interest rates.  If the rest of the world starts changing their behavior, we are going to be in a massive amount of trouble.  Those that believe that the United States is “economically independent” are being quite delusional.

In order for U.S. economic sanctions against Russia to be effective, Europe would also have to get on board.

But that simply is not going to happen.

As I noted yesterday, Russia is the largest exporter of natural gas on the planet.  And Russia is also Europe’s largest supplier of energy.

There is no way that Europe could risk having Russia cut off the gas, especially considering the economic condition that Europe is currently in.

To get an idea of just how incredibly dependent the rest of Europe is on Russian natural gas, check out the chart in this article.  A whole bunch of European nations get more than half their natural gas from Russia.

And according to the Telegraph, even the UK has already completely ruled out economic sanctions…

Europe would be pushed back into recession, Russia into financial meltdown. This is not the sort of self harm Europe is prepared to contemplate right now. Indeed, thanks to the indiscretion of a UK official, who was snapped going into Downing Street with his briefing documents on display for all the world to see, we know this to be the case. Trade and financial sanctions have already been ruled out.

So the U.S. can do whatever it wants, but Europe is not going to be any help.  Perhaps Canada will stand with the U.S., but that will be about it.

On the flip side, the Russian Foreign Ministry is promising “to respond” if the United States does impose economic sanctions…

Russia said on Tuesday that it would retaliate if the United States imposed sanctions over Moscow’s actions in Ukraine.

We will have to respond,” Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich said in a statement. “As always in such situations, provoked by rash and irresponsible actions by Washington, we stress: this is not our choice.”

So what would the response look like?

Lukashevich did not say, but top Kremlin adviser Sergei Glazyev is suggesting that Russia could abandon the U.S. dollar and refuse to pay back loans to U.S. banks…

“In the instance of sanctions being applied to stated institutions, we will have to declare the impossibility of returning those loans which were given to Russian institutions by U.S. banks,” RIA quoted Glazyev as saying.

“We will have to move into other currencies, create our own settlement system.”

He added: “We have excellent trade and economic relations with our partners in the east and south and we will find a way to reduce to nothing our financial dependence on the United States but even get out of the sanctions with a big profit to ourselves.”

Glazyev also stated that Russia could start dumping U.S. debt and encourage other nations to start doing the same.  The following comes from a Russian news source

“We hold a decent amount of treasury bonds – more than $200 billion – and if the United States dares to freeze accounts of Russian businesses and citizens, we can no longer view America as a reliable partner,” he said. “We will encourage everybody to dump US Treasury bonds, get rid of dollars as an unreliable currency and leave the US market.

Clearly Russian officials understand the economic leverage that they potentially have.  In fact, Glazyev seems fully convinced that Russia could cause “a crash for the financial system of the United States”

“An attempt to announce sanctions would end in a crash for the financial system of the United States, which would cause the end of the domination of the United States in the global financial system.”

On that last point Glazyev is perhaps overstating things.

On their own, the Russians could do a considerable amount of damage to the U.S. financial system, but I doubt that they could completely crash it.

However, if much of the rest of the world started following Russia’s lead, then things could get very interesting.

Just yesterday, I wrote about how China has chosen to publicly stand in agreement with Russia on the Ukrainian crisis.

If China also decided to abandon the U.S. dollar and start dumping U.S. debt, it would be an absolute nightmare for the U.S. financial system.

And keep in mind that the Chinese were already starting to dump a bit of U.S. debt even before this latest crisis.  In fact, China dumped nearly 50 billion dollars of U.S. debt in December alone.

The only way that the current bubble of debt-fueled false prosperity in the U.S. can continue is if the rest of the world continues to lend us trillions of dollars at ridiculously low interest rates that are way below the real rate of inflation.

If the rest of the world stops behaving in such an irrational manner, interest rates on U.S. government debt would rise dramatically and that would also mean that interest rates on virtually all other loans throughout our financial system would rise dramatically.

And if that happened, it would be a complete and utter nightmare for our economy.

Unfortunately, most Americans have no understanding of these things.  They just assume that we are “the greatest economy in the world” and that nothing is ever going to threaten that.

Well, the truth is that we are rapidly approaching a “turning point”, and after this bubble of false prosperity pops things will never be the same in the United States again.

A House of Cards – Abandon Hope, All Ye Who Enter Here


FreedomOutpost_Masthead

http://freedomoutpost.com/2014/03/house-of-cards-abandon-hope-ye-enter/#p1tVR7qbZ9q8dy2Z.99

For final confirmation that Washington, D.C. is unsalvageable, look no further than its obsession with its own deconstruction—the hit Netflix series House of Cards.

Kevin Spacey essentially plays the anti-Christ, and the ruling class just can’t get enough of seeing through its own mirror darkly. Oh, I know he technically plays Congressman-turned Vice President-turned President Underwood, but he’s really giving us the anti-Christ portrayal every Left Behind movie failed to muster.

Using a ruthless and cunning (and often entertaining) display of realpolitik, Spacey is able to elevate himself all the way to the presidency without ever winning an election. He is evil incarnate, an agent of chaos just like the devil himself, and many of the most powerful people in our nation’s capitol can’t get enough of it. One of his biggest fans is the President of these United States.

“Underwood is getting a lot of things done,” Obama said. “I wish things were that ruthlessly efficient.”

Ironically, some of the things Spacey’s Underwood gets done is the breaking of the teachers’ union, and the first substantive cuts in entitlement spending since the dawn of the Welfare State. Two things Obama would never stand for, but many of his conservative opponents would cheer.

But maybe it’s not what’s Underwood is doing that Obama likes, but the way Underwood goes about doing it that attracts the president? Underwood has no regard for the rule of the law, the Constitution, common human decency, decorum, fairness, or any semblance of honesty. Sound familiar?

But unlike Obama, who actually has some ideological non-negotiables (albeit the wrong ones), Underwood has none. He will betray any constituency or any ally, no matter how loyal, in order to get what he ultimately wants—power for power’s sake. Spacey’s Underwood is the very embodiment of the anti-Christ figure many Christians believe will arise at the end of days. He has no problems working with either side to set them up to betray them later, just as many Christians believe the anti-Christ will do the same with Israel in the last days.

And his wife is almost as bad.

Played by Robin Wright Penn, Mrs. Underwood isn’t patterned after any First Lady I know of. She’s more like a black widow spider. She even uses a sexual assault from her past to cover for all the abortions she’s had, simply because she didn’t want to be a mom. The only thing that sets her slightly apart from her villainous husband is that she actually feels bad for their vicious maneuvering every now and then. Although her guilt lasts but for a fleeting moment, of course.

Along the way every amoral cliché you can imagine is vividly portrayed:

Pro-lifers are screamers and dirty bombers. A lost girl finds contentment in the lesbian lover she meets at their evangelical church. A female reporter having an affair with Underwood has sex with him while calling her dad on Father’s Day. The reputable D.C. reporter who breaks the scandal wide open has a Middle Eastern name. Republican actor Gerald McRaney basically plays the Koch Brothers. Native American tribal leaders are little more than wannabe gangsters. The Tea Party are reactionaries that stand in the way of progress. Underwood himself is a bisexual graduate of a prestigious South Carolina military academy, and so on and so on.

It’s easy to say the show leans Left, but it brutally pans the Left just the same as the Right. No one is unscathed. Conservatives are almost unfathomable to the show, but liberals are often depicted as betraying whatever cause they originally came to Washington, D.C. for. You root for no one, but rather for a giant mushroom cloud to eviscerate the whole lot of them. Sort of an apocalyptic control-alt-delete button. The show would more appropriately be titled Drain the Swamp.

I’m not sure what’s more nihilistic, the plot lines or the fact the very culture House of Cards is self-parodying seems to be loving it? I can’t imagine any other human endeavor enjoying its own broadcast media deconstruction as much Washington, D.C. seems to be enjoying theirs.

And the ruling class wonders why it’s so hated and vilified by everyday Americans.

Throughout history, ruling classes have not responded so approvingly to such biting satire of their heinous exploits. But ours is now a culture so far gone, they’d prefer to shamelessly own it and revel in their nakedness instead.

Perhaps our republic has become the real “House of Cards?”

About Steve Deace

Steve Deace barely made it out of community college in one piece, and then loosely attended a real college for a while. We say he only attended because there’s no record of him actually accomplishing anything while he was there, or at least anything he wants to tell his three children about before they’re 21 years old. By the grace of God he managed to find a woman that would put up with him, his wife Amy who daily exhibits the patience of Job. Because he’s not that educated, Deace actually believes the Bible is literally true and the Constitution isn’t a living, breathing document. He also knows way more about superheroes, Star Wars & Star Trek, and college football than any man not living under a vow of perpetual virginity in his mom’s basement should. He’s also the author of Rules for Patriots: How Conservatives Can Win Again

Liberty Under God’s Law is the Only True Path to Freedom


FreedomOutpost_Masthead

http://freedomoutpost.com/2014/03/liberty-gods-law-true-path-freedom/#H3uOhiqMR00pvSsB.99

Posted by

As many of you already know, I filed for the County Council campaign this past Monday in the 5th district of Anne Arundel County. It is interesting to watch some of the reactions. There are those who decry my campaign, claiming I would impose a theocracy upon our county. It would appear that they think my belief system is a danger to their liberty; that somehow believing, as our Founders did, that there is a Creator God, the God of the Bible and that our Rights come from Him, and that the sole purpose of human civil government is to secure and protect those God given rights.  They think that is a very dangerous idea.

They think that liberty can only be achieved by a government which denies that God has anything to say regarding the goals, the reach and the powers of human civil government. In other words they like what we have now, godless government with tyrannically reaches into every nook and cranny of our lives, takes a disproportionate amount of the fruit of our labor, controls and regulates everything imaginable, and then some. It appears they would rather have a government that violates the law of God rather than keeps the law of God.

People say they want liberty, yet God’s Word clearly teaches us that liberty under Gods’ law is the only true path to freedom. All else is simply one or another road to serfdom and slavery. Turn to Exodus 13:17-18 where will see this Biblical teaching demonstrated in the Exodus from Egypt;

“When Pharaoh let the people go, God did not lead them on the road through the Philistine country, though that was shorter. For God said, “If they face war, they might change their minds and return to Egypt.” So God led the people around by the desert road toward the Red Sea. The Israelites went up out of Egypt armed for battle.” (Ex 13:17-18;NIV)

The children of Israel were liberated from the bondage of Egypt. But now what would happen to them? They were free, but wandering in a barren trackless desert on their own would quickly exhaust the little food they had brought with them, not to mention the water. Liberty from bondage yes, but without direction, without a superintending providential hand to look out for their best interests they were doomed to become food for jackals.

The route God planned for His people would have taken approximately 3 months, but as we shall see, it turned into 40 years due to the rebelliousness and disobedience of Israel. We learn two important truths from this experience. First, our natural inclinations are not always our best choice – we think we know what is best, but our information is limited, it is finite. But God’s knowledge is all encompassing. He can see things we never even knew were there. I imagine most Israelites had no idea about the Philistines, they had no inkling what it would be like to go up against them in battle.

The second truth we learn in this passage is that God will bring trials into our lives for our ultimate good. The children of Israel were about to leave all civilization behind; they were about to enter a difficult and at times painful trial in the wilderness. So much so that some at times pined to go back to Egypt, back to slavery. Liberty is not a pain free experience. All creature comforts would be stripped away, all the familiar rhythms of life disrupted. Food and water would not be readily available but only provided supernaturally. They would be dependent upon God as never before and God would use the trials of the 40 years of wilderness wandering for the ultimate good of the children of Israel.

What is best in our life, we may not always know. So ultimately it is God’s direction and not our choices that lead to the path of blessing and the path of liberty. This is true not only for us individually, and as families and churches but also civil government. God’s Law is always the best for all because God’s Law is universal, it applies to everyone, everywhere and at all times. What a wonderful Savior is Jesus our Jesus. His law is our delight, for it brings the direction we need in this life.  Indeed His truth is more precious to us than our daily bread. So while the world around us falsely believes that there can be freedom apart from God’s Law, we know differently.  We know true freedom comes in walking the path of liberty under God’s Law.

Crimea river

By: Ann Coulter   3/5/2014 04:36 PM

It’s pointless to pay attention to foreign policy when a Democrat is president, unless you enjoy having your stomach in a knot. As long as a Democrat sits in the White House, America will be repeatedly humiliated, the world will become a much more dangerous place — and there’s absolutely nothing anybody can do about it. (Though this information might come in handy when voting for president, America!)

The following stroll down memory lane is but the briefest of summaries. For a full accounting of Democratic national security disasters, please read my book, “Treason: Liberal Treachery From the Cold War to the War on Terrorism.”–

JFK:

John F. Kennedy was in the White House for less than three years and, if you think he screwed a lot of hookers, just look what he did to our foreign policy.

Six months after becoming president, JFK had his calamitous meeting with Nikita Khrushchev in Vienna — a meeting The New York Times described as “one of the more self-destructive American actions of the Cold War, and one that contributed to the most dangerous crisis of the nuclear age.” (The Times admitted that a half-century later. At the time, the Newspaper of Record lied about the meeting.)

For two days, Khrushchev batted Kennedy around, leaving the president’s own advisers white-faced and shaken. Kennedy’s Assistant Secretary of Defense Paul Nitze called the meeting “just a disaster.”

Khrushchev was delighted to discover that the U.S. president was so “weak.” A Russian aide said the American president seemed “very inexperienced, even immature.”

Seeing he was dealing with a naif, Khrushchev promptly sent missiles to Cuba. The Kennedy Myth Machine has somehow turned JFK’s handling of the Cuban Missile Crisis into a brilliant foreign policy coup. The truth is: (1) Russia would never have dared move missiles to Cuba had Khrushchev not realized that JFK was a nincompoop; and (2) it wasn’t a victory.

In exchange for Russia’s laughably empty threats about Cuba, JFK removed our missiles from Turkey — a major retreat. As Khrushchev put it in his memoirs: “It would have been ridiculous for us to go to war over Cuba — for a country 12,000 miles away. For us, war was unthinkable. We ended up getting exactly what we’d wanted all along, security for Fidel Castro’s regime and American missiles removed from Turkey.”

LBJ:

Kennedy’s successor, Lyndon Johnson, famously escalated the war in Vietnam simply to prove that the Democrats could be trusted with national security.

As historian David Halberstam describes it, LBJ “would talk to his closest political aides about the McCarthy days, of how Truman lost China and then the Congress and the White House and how, by God, Johnson was not going to be the president who lost Vietnam and then the Congress and the White House.”

LBJ’s incompetent handling of that war allowed liberals to spend the next half-century denouncing every use of American military force as “another Vietnam.”

CARTER:

Jimmy Carter warned Americans about their “inordinate fear of communism” and claimed to have been attacked by a giant swimming rabbit.

His most inspired strategic move was to abandon the Shah of Iran, a loyal U.S. ally, which gave rise to the global Islamofascist movement we’re still dealing with today. By allowing the Shah to be overthrown by the Ayatollah Khomeini in February 1979, Carter handed Islamic crazies their first state.

Before the end of the year, the Islamic lunatics had taken 52 Americans hostage in Tehran, where they remained for 444 days.

The hostages were released only minutes after Ronald Reagan’s inauguration for reasons succinctly captured in a Jeff MacNelly cartoon. It shows Khomeini reading a telegram aloud: “It’s from Ronald Reagan. It must be about one of the Americans in the Den of Spies, but I don’t recognize the name. It says ‘Remember Hiroshima.’”

CLINTON:

Bill Clinton’s masterful handling of foreign policy was such a catastrophe that he had to deploy his national security adviser, Sandy Berger, to steal classified documents from the National Archives in 2003 to avoid their discovery by the 9/11 commission.

Twice, when Clinton was president, Sudan had offered to turn over bin Laden to the U.S. But, unfortunately, these offers came in early 1996 when Clinton was busy ejaculating on White House intern Monica Lewinsky. Clinton rebuffed Sudan’s offers.

According to Michael Scheuer, who ran the bin Laden unit at the CIA for many years, Clinton was given eight to 10 chances to kill or capture bin Laden but refused to act, despite bin Laden’s having murdered hundreds of Americans in terrorist attacks around the world. Would that one of those opportunities had arisen on the day of Clinton’s scheduled impeachment! Instead of pointlessly bombing Iraq, he might have finally taken out bin Laden.

OBAMA:

When Obama took office, al Qaida had been routed in Iraq — from Fallujah, Sadr City and Basra. Muqtada al-Sadr — the Dr. Phil of Islamofascist radicalism — had waddled off in retreat to Iran. The Iraqis had a democracy, a miracle on the order of flush toilets in Afghanistan.

By Bush’s last year in office, monthly casualties in Iraq were coming in slightly below a weekend with Justin Bieber. In 2008, there were more than three times as many homicides in Chicago as U.S. troop deaths in the Iraq War. (Chicago: 509; Iraq: 155).

On May 30, The Washington Post reported: “CIA Director Michael V. Hayden now portrays (al-Qaida) as essentially defeated in Iraq and Saudi Arabia and on the defensive throughout much of the rest of the world …” Even hysterics at The New York Times admitted that al-Qaida and other terrorist groups had nearly disappeared from Southeast Asia by 2008.

A few short years into Obama’s presidency — and al-Qaida is back! For purely political reasons, as soon as he became president, Obama removed every last troop from Iraq, despite there being Americans troops deployed in dozens of countries around the world.

In 2004, nearly 100 soldiers, mostly Marines, died in the battle to take Fallujah from al-Qaida. Today, al-Qaida’s black flag flies above Fallujah.

Bush won the war, and Obama gave it back.

Obama couldn’t be bothered with preserving America’s victory in Iraq. He was busy helping to topple a strong American ally in Egypt and a slavish American minion in Libya — in order to install the Muslim Brotherhood in those countries instead. (That didn’t work out so well for U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans murdered in Benghazi.)

So now, another Russian leader is playing cat-and-mouse with an American president — and guess who’s the mouse? Putin has taunted Obama in Iran, in Syria and with Edward Snowden. By now, Obama has become such an object for Putin’s amusement that the fastest way to get the Russians out of Crimea would be for Obama to call on Putin to invade Ukraine.

China Fields New Intermediate-Range Nuclear Missile


The Washington Free Beacon

DF-26C deployment confirmed

Chinese Internet photos first published Feb. 29, 2012 show China's new DF-26c intermediate-range ballistic missile.

Chinese Internet photos first published Feb. 29, 2012 show China’s new DF-26c intermediate-range ballistic missile.

BY:   March 3, 2014 4:59 am

U.S. intelligence agencies recently confirmed China’s development of a new intermediate-range nuclear missile (IRBM) called the Dongfeng-26C (DF-26C), U.S. officials said.

The new missile is estimated to have a range of at least 2,200 miles—enough for Chinese military forces to conduct attacks on U.S. military facilities in Guam, a major hub for the Pentagon’s shift of U.S. forces to Asia Pacific.

As part of the force posture changes, several thousand Marines now based in Okinawa will be moved to Guam as part of the Asia pivot.

In April, the Pentagon announced it is deploying one of its newest anti-missile systems, the Theater High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) to Guam because of growing missile threats to the U.S. island, located in the South Pacific some 1,600 miles southeast of Japan and 4,000 miles from Hawaii.

And on Feb. 10, the Navy announced the deployment of a fourth nuclear attack submarine to Guam, the USS Topeka.

Chinese military officials said the Topeka deployment is part of the Pentagon’s Air Sea Battle Concept and posed a threat to China.

Disclosure of the new Chinese IRBM follows the announcement this week by Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel that the U.S. military is sharply reducing its military forces.

“How can [U.S. policymakers] possibly justify such reductions in defense spending when American forces as far away as Guam, Korea, and Okinawa are targeted by these nuclear missiles,” said one official familiar with reports of the DF-26C.

It was the first official confirmation of China’s new IRBM, which officials believe is part of the People’s Liberation Army military buildup aimed at controlling the Asia Pacific waters and preventing the U.S. military entry to the two island chains along China’s coasts.

The first island chain extends from Japan’s southern Ryuku Islands southward and east of the Philippines and covers the entire South China Sea. The second island chain stretches more than a thousand miles into the Pacific in an arc from Japan westward and south to western New Guinea.

Few details could be learned about the new missile and a Pentagon spokesman declined to comment, citing a policy of not commenting on intelligence matters.

The missile is said to be on a road-mobile chassis and to use solid fuel. The fuel and mobility allow the missile to be hidden in underground facilities and fired on short notice, making it very difficult to counter in a conflict.

The DF-26C is expected to be mentioned in the Pentagon’s forthcoming annual report on China’s military power, which is due to Congress next month.

Adm. Cecil Haney, commander of the U.S. Strategic Command, told a congressional hearing this week that missile and other nuclear threats from China and Russia continue to grow.

“The current security environment is more complex, dynamic, and uncertain than at any time in recent history,” Haney said in testimony to the Senate Armed Services Committee. “Advances of significant nation state and non-state military capabilities continue across all air, sea, land, and space domains—as well as in cyberspace. This trend has the potential to adversely impact strategic stability.”

Russia and China in particular “are investing in long-term and wide-ranging military modernization programs to include extensive modernization of their strategic capabilities,” Haney said. “Nuclear weapons ambitions and the proliferation of weapon and nuclear technologies continue, increasing risk that countries will resort to nuclear coercion in regional crises or nuclear use in future conflicts.”

Richard Fisher, a China military affairs specialist, said Chinese reports have discussed a DF-26 missile as a medium-range or intermediate-range system. Medium-range is considered between 621 miles and 1,864 miles. Intermediate-range is between 1,864 and 3,418 miles

Online reports of three new types of medium- and intermediate-range missiles have said the weapons could be multi-role systems capable of firing nuclear or conventional warheads, along with maneuvering anti-ship and hypersonic warheads, Fisher said.

According to Fisher, two likely transporter erector launchers (TEL) for the new missiles were displayed last year on Chinese websites. They include two versions from missile TEL manufacturing companies called Sanjiang and Taian.

Three years ago, the state-run Global Times reported that the China Aerospace Science and Industry Corp. (CASIC) was working on a new 2,400-mile range missile that would be deployed by 2015.

That Chinese manufacturer also produced the DF-21 missile, prompting speculation that the DF-26C is a follow-up version of that system.

“China is developing and will soon deploy new longer-range theater missiles as part of its anti-access, area denial strategies, to be part of a combined force of new long-range bombers armed with supersonic anti-ship missiles, plus space weapons and larger numbers of submarines,” Fisher said in an email.

These forces are being deployed to push U.S. forces out of the first island chain and to have the capability to reach the second chain, including Guam, he said.

“China also consistently refuses to consider formal dialogue about its future nuclear forces or to consider any near term limits on them,” Fisher said. “China is giving Washington and its Asian allies no other choice but to pursue an ‘armed peace’ in Asia.”

According to Fisher, the Chinese missile buildup has forced the Navy to redesign its first aircraft carrier-based unmanned combat vehicle into a larger and longer aircraft.

The new Chinese long-range missiles also highlight the urgent need for a new U.S. long-range bomber to replace an aging fleet of strategic bombers.

To counter the Chinese threats, the United States should field its force of anti-ship ballistic missiles on submarines to match Chinese capabilities and deter China from using its naval power against U.S. allies such as Japan and the Philippines, Fisher said.

Russian officials have cited China’s intermediate-range missiles as one reason Moscow is seeking to jettison the U.S.-Russia Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF), which bans medium and intermediate ballistic and cruise missiles.

U.S. officials have said Russia is violating the INF treaty with a new cruise missile and testing its long-range missiles to INF ranges.

“It is time to retire the INF treaty because the United States now requires this class of missiles in order to deter China,” Fisher said.

“The bottom line: We are in an arms race with China and if America falters, so will our strategic position in Asia, which will surely increase the chances of conflict, nuclear proliferation and even nuclear war.”

The Pentagon’s latest report on China’s military forces, published last year, said the PLA is investing in “a series of advanced short- and medium-range conventional ballistic missiles, land-attack and anti-ship cruise missiles, counter-space weapons, and military cyberspace capabilities.”

The weapons “appear designed to enable anti-access/area-denial (A2/AD) missions, what PLA strategists refer to as ‘counter-intervention operations,’” the report said.

The Washington Free Beacon first reported on March 7, 2012, that the Chinese military had revealed online photos of a new intermediate-range nuclear missile.

The new missile is believed by U.S. officials to be the DF-26C.

China’s military frequently uses the Internet to reveal the first photos of new weapons systems.

Analysts said the missile TEL shown in the photo is smaller in size than China’s DF-31 intercontinental missile and larger than the DF-21 missile.

The Bigger The Government…The Smaller The Citizen

http://conservativevideos.com/2014/03/bigger-government-smaller-citizen/#qh2LYSw21kBR2eMh.99

Bigger

In every society throughout human history the following relationship has held true: as government grows, human freedom and happiness shrinks. Best selling author, Dennis Prager puts it this way: “The bigger the government, the smaller the citizen.” This has been true in Europe for decades and is becoming ever more so in the United States. But it’s not the kind of nation, the Founding Fathers had in mind. Can we get back to the principles of liberty and individual responsibility? It’s a big challenge. But first we have to recognize the problem.

With liberals telling them how pot is harmless is it no doubt that kids have no fear of this mind altering drug? Check it out:

Three third-grade students at a Sonora elementary school were busted for smoking pot in the school’s bathroom last week.

Two 8-year-olds and a 9-year-old were caught by another student, who immediately informed school administrators.  Those officials then alerted local police.

The students were questioned by officers, and later released to their parents on February 27th.

Sonora Elementary School Principal Chris Boyles would not speak with CBS SF regarding the case, but Superintendent Leigh Shampain confirmed that the students were caught smoking marijuana in the school’s bathroom.  He would not discuss how the students might be disciplined.

MY TWO CENTS:

What did the nitwits in the San Francisco government think would happen when they decided to push for the legalization of this destructive drug? You tell children that Pot is no big deal and harmless, and naturally they are going to want to try it, especially when you make it seem so “COOL” to be a pot smoker.

I hold the entire national Pot Legalization Lobby for this.

miracle

The sad truth is most Americans are ignorant, and apathetic.    They’ve only recently awakened, partially, to the activities of the criminal in the White House, and only then when their health insurance was canceled and costs skyrocketed.   Perhaps they will fully awaken when electric bills triple, when the cost of food and gasoline doubles, or when DHS kicks in the door to confiscate firearms.    At this point the American people are only reacting to pin pricks to their comfort zone, a selfish orientation.   To save this republic people must react on principle.  They must develop a fierce devotion to proven, traditional principles, to liberty and the general welfare.  That kind of devotion requires a selfless, inspired posture.  It will take a miracle for this to happen in the time we have left.   Thankfully, the God of love specializes in miracles.    No doubt part of that miraculous movement will involve inspired leadership capable of dealing with ignorance and apathy.

Concern: Supporting Putin’s Crimea Seizure …Russia’s New Pal, China

Russian-troops-Ukraine-ap

Vladimir Putin’s unapologetic and remorseless invasion of the Ukraine has gained steam in the face of the rest of the world’s ineffectual reaction to it. Monday brought with it fresh reason for alarm. Sky NEWS HD broke the startling news that Russia’s seizure in the Ukraine is supported by her once-bitter enemy, China.

Sky NEWS amplified: “Russian foreign minister Sergei Lavrov discussed Ukraine by telephone with his Chinese counterpart, Wang Yi, on Monday, and claimed they had ‘broadly coinciding points of view’ on the situation there, according to a ministry statement.” That announcement is weightier than its bland demeanor implies.

Russia and China have been at each other’s throats since both adopted politically variant Communist strategies. Any new agreement between the two, on aggressive foreign policy decisions, offers ample grounds for what the Washington corridor would refer to as a “cause for concern.” Russia’s and China’s combined military strength are a more-than-ample retort to the incessant finger-wagging and mind-numbing, impotent “diplomatic” strategy that the rest of the Kumbaya world (U.N, EU and America) has of late advanced, despite evidence that it has never solved foreign policy problems. Never, in the entirety of recorded history. Not once.

Coupled with the news that Russia and China seem to be on the same page regarding Putin’s Ukrainian invasion comes another item disseminated Monday by the Washington Free Beacon: “U.S. intelligence agencies recently confirmed China’s development of a new intermediate-range nuclear missile (IRBM) called the Dongfeng-26C (DF-26C), U.S. officials said. The new missile is estimated to have a range of at least 2,200 miles—enough for Chinese military forces to conduct attacks on U.S. military facilities in Guam, a major hub for the Pentagon’s shift of U.S. forces to Asia Pacific.”

To make China’s ability to strike down U.S military forces easier the Washington Free Beacon adds: “As part of the force posture changes, several thousand Marines now based in Okinawa will be moved to Guam as part of the Asia pivot.” The missiles in question are not North Korean squibs; to quote Frank Nitty from The Untouchables America now enters the realm of “touchable.”

Fox NEWS quotes UN Ambassador Samantha Power. Her indignant statements included power-house phrases like “dangerous military intervention” and insisting it is a violation of military law coupled with a demand that “it must stop.” CNBC intimates that there is nothing to see here because if Russia ticks off the EU, that would alienate Russia’s largest purchaser of Russian fuel. Nonsense, since all of Europe is slave to Russian oil. But, as long as one is indulging in hypothetical panaceas, wouldn’t China’s population of over 1.3 billion people more than make up for an ever-dwindling European economy?

Human Events shared a more rational observation from House Intelligence Chair, Mike Rogers (R-MI): “ ‘Putin is playing chess, and I think we’re playing marbles.’  The degree of disconnect between reality on the ground in the Crimean region, and the Obama Administration’s hapless stream of babble and bluster, is amazing.” The Financial Times summed it up perfectly: “Putin cooks up Obama’s chicken Kiev moment.”

No one could reasonably advocate a weakened, U.S. military response to Putin’s check move on the world chess table; especially since The Lyin’ King is doing everything in his power to decimate our military might even further. At full strength, the threat would make an armed response unnecessary. The Lyin’ King promised Putin America’s military capitulation, under the table, prior to his 2012 re-anointment.

But the problem goes much deeper. The Imperial President’s posturing, “Oh yeah?” chin wag while presenting his posterior to aggressors has proven to be nothing but fanatical conviction. He cannot even be bothered to attend security meetings involving the Ukraine. Puerile nonsense issues from him like an unstoppable font of puke. The years of his regime has achieved nothing but drowning the world in chaos and has been designed to lull a gullible nation into continuing to purchase his fantasy bridges. He is as incapable of wielding “diplomacy “as he is of throwing a baseball. Yes, Putin has read The Lyin’ King perfectly.

Leftists continue to misread Ronald Reagan’s policy of peace through strength, choosing instead to label it war mongering. Such will never admit that all the wishful thinking in the world won’t deter peoples that only recognize strength. A disastrous “Arab Spring” should have brought that lesson home. Perhaps the likelihood of an alliance between Russia and China will.

Yeah, They Exist: Hollywood Conservatives SHATTERING THE ILLUSION

It is commonly held as fact that artists lean heavily to the left. They are the dreamers of this world and many truly subscribe to the notion that Utopia is possible if everyone claps their hands and truly believes.

However, many talented actors, artist etc. have come to the realization that these dreams are nothing but castles in the air. They know that eventually the bill comes due and someone has to pay. Everything comes with a price. Will Rogers is known to have said, “there is no such thing as a free lunch.”

Given that the Hollywood scene is hysterically liberal, it is often hard for an artist that wants to work to step to the center and speak up.

However, more and more are coming to confess their conservative values.

Jon Voight and Clint Eastwood are bold in their convictions. They are seasoned and know they can make their own work, or not work at all, if needed.

Recently, some of the younger crowd has jumped on board. Ashton Kutcher gave an outstanding speech at the Teen’s Choice Awards about working, responsibility and intelligence.

Texas has to be proud of it’s blue eyed son, Matthew Mc Conaughey, when he showed his where his allegiance lies by thanking God first, his parents second and his own family third.

Scarlett Johannson renounced her alliance with Oxfam International when they pressured her to cut ties with Soda Stream, a company that is located on the West Bank in Israel. She cited a fundamental difference of opinion as the reason for her resignation. Soda Stream is one of the best examples of Israelis and Palestinians working together in harmony. It is amazing how quick so many are to jump on the “against Israel” bandwagon without really knowing the true facts.

However, that is a typical liberal trait, isn’t it? Don’t muddy the water with the facts, just scream loudly at the perceived injustice. Ignorance can be bliss when you don’t feel the need to do the footwork to learn if you have a point or not.

Of course, the greatest president of our generation, Ronald Reagan, was a conservative. Like most actors, he started out as a Democrat. When his values could no longer support the doctrine of his original alliance, he switched to the Republican Party.

As our current economy and moral attitudes continue to decay, those who have a sense of responsibility, and/or children who have to live in this world in the years to come, feel the need to stand up for the things that make the world a better place.

CAIR Takes Care To Violate My Free Speech

Well, well, well…getting around to the little people like moi. CAIR, remember them? They are the unindicted co-conspirators in the Holy Land Foundation Case. In other words: Funding front for Hamas.

My article on here (ClashDaily.com) titled, Islam: The Only Religion That Tells Everyone On EARTH What To Do, was posted on the website of the Baltimore Radio Station WCBM AM 680.

But CAIR will have none of the truth about the ideology of Islam getting out to the people…so…they began to pressure the station to remove it.

According to Creeping Sharia, Zainab Chaudry of CAIR-MD wrote:

“The Maryland office of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-MD) welcomed the decision of officials at Baltimore talk radio station WCBM AM 680 to remove an anti-Muslim article that was re-published on its website…The bigoted generalizations in this article are inappropriate for use by a mainstream media outlet and should be rejected for the hatred and intolerance they promote.”

Then CAIR went on to carefully slice my statements up to say what THEY wanted readers to take away with them…then slander the writer…

The article by an anti-Muslim blogger read in part: “The ideology of Islam (a totalitarian system cloaked in the burqa of religion) views itself as above all other religions and systems … Everywhere it invades and conquers, its sole purpose is to convert by force or by numbers. No other religion/culture is equal or tolerated as such. They come to a country and isolate their community … because the Quran demands they do not mix with infidels.

Let’s correct their first LIE, I an not anti-Muslim…I am anti-Islam!

I can back up every so-called “generalization” by witnesses to this corrupt ideology, including: Noni Darwish, Walid Shoebat, Wafa Sultan, Raymond Ibrahim, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Brother Rashid…and the list goes on. NOT to mention those who have studied and observed the ideology in action, namely: Robert Spencer, Pamela Geller, Jamie Glazov…the list is interminable.

This is America where my free speech rights are protected (to CAIR’s chagrin). CAIR-MDs accusations are bogus. PROVE what is said in the article is wrong.

They won’t because they CAN’T!

Socrates once said: “When the debate is lost, slander is the tool of the loser.”

CAIR-MD has proved they are the LOSER in this case. Sadly, the station bowed to their jack-boot pressure.

Instead of arguing the valid points I make…they slander me with “bigot”…how original. But then again, has anything TRULY original come out of this ideology since its violent inception?

Cricket chirps…

I hope WCBM AM 680 will rethink their removal of the article…their first instincts were correct. CAIR lied and strong-armed them to remove something that CAIR failed to prove was false. They simply bandied about slander and politically correct terms to cause trepidation.

And trepidation is not what built this great nation…the beacon of the Free World.

Shalom through strength…
