There are certain truths in life, maybe I will make a list of them one day, kind of like Rush Limbaugh did years ago, but for now, allow me to focus on just one of these truths. Leftists HATE God. Yes, I know any Leftist reading this will howl in outrage. They will say that they merely wish to keep the “separation” of church and state that our Founders placed in the Constitution. Of course, the fact that there is no such separation never stops Leftists, and Liberals, who are just Leftists in training from finding it. And, sadly, enough Leftists judges have also found, or rather imagined, or maybe invented is a better term, such a constitutional standard.
Now, you might be thinking that just because the Left gets the Constitution wrong does not necessarily mean that they hate God. And I would agree, if, and this is a massive if, the Left did not spend so much time trying to use that imaginary clause in the Constitution to stamp out every last mention of God in the public realm. The sad fact is that wherever you can find a display of the Ten Commandments in a school, or a public park, or a courthouse, you will find an outraged Atheist speed dialing the ACLU, or some other Left wing organization. The sad fact is that these same miscreants have done their level best to erase Christmas displays anywhere. In an odd twist, these very same Intolerants will gladly tell you that Santa Claus, and Christmas Trees are NOT Christian symbols, but rather pagan, or secular symbols of the “Winter Solstice”, or whatever generic name they are currently using for CHRISTmas! But, let a city put Santa and his reindeer up in a city park, or let a school have a Christmas party, or even dare to have red and green cups and napkins at that party and the same freak shows will be screaming to high Heaven. Come on, make up your minds already.
Again, the excuse often used for waging war on cup cakes with the dreaded red or green icing at a school party, or for raising hell over a manger scene or a Christmas Tree in the local library, is that someone might be, hold your breath, offended! The right not to be offended is another right found in the Constitution according to Leftist’s deluded mind. Of course that right against having your feelings hurt only protects Leftist whiners and agitators from offense. Every one else, A.K.A. Normal Americans are not protected. Odd isn’t it? The Left will argue passionately about fairness and equality, until something they do offends a normal American. then the “right not to be offended” morphs into the right to fuck off and die.
For those still not convinced that the Left hates God let me give you on more item to ruminate on. The Left wraps itself up in the first amendment, especially the freedom of speech part. It also wraps itself up in the “community”. Leftists are always talking about community, the Black Community, the Hispanic Community, the LGBT Community, this community that community. But let the Normal American Community express themselves by putting up a war memorial in a city park that dares to mention God in any way, even if that is just a simple cross, and the same Leftists are there to try to take that memorial down.
So, the Left loves fairness, and equality, they hate when anyone is offended, they love freedom of expression, and “community”, as long as it benefits their agenda. And in this case erasing public mentions or displays of Christianity IS the sole agenda. So, what else can we assume here but that Leftists hate God. But, why do they hate God? Why would radical Atheists be so vehement about forcing everyone else to submit to their beliefs? Note, I said radical Atheists because most Atheists really do not give a flip about a Santa Claus in a park. They do not believe, and do not have time to worry about your beliefs, which is fine with me. So, again the question. Why do Leftists hate God? Well, because they hate liberty and individualism.
Think of America. Is there a greater target for Leftist hate than America? Is there a nation more maligned among Leftists than America? The answer is no. And, when you dissect all the protests against America, you find a common theme. The hatred of liberty. And where does liberty, as honored in America come from? Liberty comes from God. The American ideal is that we are created with certain rights. These rights have a source, and that source is God. Nothing will agitate a Leftists more than any value system that dares challenge their core ideal, that rights are NOT individual rights. Leftists hold that rights are collective, and that these rights come not from God, but from government. And as the source of these collective rights, government can restrict, limit, or take certain rights at will.
So it comes down to a basic, fundamental issue. If the Individualists are right, then God is the source of our rights, and those rights are inherently OURS. If Individualists are correct, then government does not have the authority to give, take, or restrict these natural rights. To a Leftist/Collectivist, the source of all our rights is government, and all those right are collective. Leftists can never form their Utopian State as long as we, the people recognize God as the source of our liberty. So, for that Utopia to grow God must go. That is why Leftists hate God.
RUSH LIMBAUGH: That’s an interesting take that the President inspires it, inspires racism. It may well be the case. So Obama’s presence inspires this guy to go all divisive, all racist and start jamming on the Republicans for wanting blacks in the back of the bus and women back in the kitchen when he can’t name a single person who does. But the President of the United States, you may be right, may have inspired that in this preacher.

2.
a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine discrimination.
3.
hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.
From Websters

The rage-filled “manifesto” written by former police officer Christopher Dorner before he went on an alleged cop killing spree around the Los Angeles area was dismissed by the head of the Los Angeles Police Department today as “self-serving” and “ramblings on the Internet.”
Well of course it is “self-serving” and rambling, manifestos are rambling, incoherent and self-serving, If you do not believe me, read the Communist Manifesto sometime, talk about Cukoo for Cocoa Puffs! But, the real story is not what the LAPD is pointing out. The real story is that the media is downplaying, completely ignoring this nuts manifesto.
No more Virginia Tech, Columbine HS, Wisconsin temple, Aurora theatre, Portland malls, Tucson rally, Newtown Sandy Hook. Whether by executive order or thru a bi-partisan congress an assault weapons ban needs to be re-instituted. Period!!! Mia Farrow said it best. “Gun control is no longer debatable, it’s not a conversation, its a moral mandate.” Sen. Feinstein, you are doing the right thing in leading the re-institution of a national [assault weapons ban]. Never again should any public official state that their prayers and thoughts are with the family. That has become cliche’ and meaningless. Its time for action.
Well, how about that? pretty strange isn’t it? I mean here is a guy, OK a nutcase with a rambling manifesto, who abhors mass shootings and “assault weapons”. And to show how much he cares about the victims of gun violence, he is shooting people! that, my friends is grade-A crazy! Of course, Dorner also shows another sure sign of certified lunacy by praising Dianne Feinstein, and Mia Farrow.
“Mia Farrow said it best” — yeah, that’s the kind of sentence that practically screams “diminished mental capacity.”
So, what if the killer had a manifesto that even used the words Tea Party? What if he, in any way, mentioned Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, or any Conservative blog? Would the media be ignoring that as unimportant? Yeah, I know, silly question. And of course, you David Frum would be Tweeting like a mofo ripping gun owners, and trying to stay relevant.
I do not do many movie, or food reviews here. Although that would be a great job to get paid for, but after a visit to the doctor for a check up Thursday, I passed a new restaurant, well new to the Dallas area anyway, Five Guys Burgers and Fries. I had heard about Five Guys, heard the burgers were good,, and the fries awesome. So, after getting a good result from my check up, I figured what the heck.
I went in ordered my burger, all topping are free, so you just tell them what you want. I went for the cheeseburger, mayo mustard, pickles, a burger without pickles is unthinkable, tomatoes, and lettuce, and a large order of fries. It took a few minutes to cook the burgers, and I watched their kitchen crew cooking and assembling burgers, cooking fries, etc. They had it down to a science, it is fun to watch people who know what they are doing. Then, my order in hand, in a brown paper sack with authentic grease stains in hand, I went out to the truck, turned on Rush Limbaugh, and dug in.
First off the fries are rockin! Seasoned well, thick cut, and super hot. One thing though, unless you are feeding a small village, a large fry is a meal itself, even the smaller order is huge I am told. Then, I unwrapped the burger, the cheese was melted, sticking to the foil wrapper. My first bite, was good, you can tell they use real ground beef, not frozen, it tasted like hamburgers used to. Like I said, it was good, but, as I continued eating, I found myself falling in love with this burger! In fact it is likely the best burger I have had in years, maybe ever. So, if you like burgers, find a Five Guys and go munch!
On Rush Limbaugh’s Thursday program, George Mason University professor Walter E. Williams outlined the case that states can nullify Obamacare, citing Thomas Jefferson’s 1789 Kentucky Resolution, which was a claim that the U. S. Constitution is a compact among the several states, and any power not delegated to the U.S. government is void.
“I think the American citizens ought to press their state governors and legislatures just to nullify the law — just to plain nullify it and say, ‘The citizens of such-and-such-a state don’t have to obey Obamacare because it’s unconstitutional, regardless of what the Supreme Court says,’” Williams said.
Williams cited Marbury v. Madison, which said “all laws which are repugnant to the Constitution are null and void” to further the case for nullification from the states.
Nullification is a doctrine introduced in the infancy of the United States and was what some have suggested led to the Civil War. As far as the legal precedent of nullification and how it led to the Civil War, Williams said he doubted the repercussions would as serious as they were in 1861.
“I think two things are different this time,” he said. “First, most Americans are against Obamacare. And secondly, I don’t believe — and you call me up and tell me if I’m wrong about this — I don’t believe that you could find a United States soldier who would follow a presidential order to descend on a state to round up or shoot fellow Americans because they refuse to follow a congressional order to buy health insurance.”
You can see what I put up a while ago on concerning Obama’s campaign and their ties to on line intimidation and thuggery here. Along those same lines is this story, also from Stacy McCain. It seems a certain MSNBS host, has ties to the #stopRush Boycott too
MSNBC host Krystal Ball was in close communication with leaders of an online boycott aimed at advertisers on Rush Limbaugh’s popular radio show, e-mails between the boycott leaders indicate.
Attempting to discover the identity of an infiltrator in their group, the #StopRush leader @Shoq (aka “Shoq Value,” who is believed to be an activist named Matt Edelstein) indicated that Ball had warned another member about the suspected “right wing disrupter.” The other member had “already inquired with Krystal last week, and Krystal said ‘we don’t like or trust this guy,’” Shoq wrote in an e-mail published Thursday by Brooks Bayne at The Trenches.
Bayne said the e-mail was obtained from a Google group, “Social Action Steering,” which was apparently deleted after The Trenches published the correspondence between the #StopRush leaders. The group was attempting to discover the true identity and political leanings of a Texas man, known as “Randy Hahn,” who had joined their anti-Limbaugh effort and caused dissension among the boycotters.
Ball, a Democrat who ran for Congress in Virginia two years ago, is a paid MSNBC contributor who was recently announced as one of four co-hosts of a new daily program, The Cycle, on the left-leaning cable news network. It is unclear whether MSNBC executives were aware of the extent of Ball’s involvement in #StopRush, which used the social network in a campaign to drive Limbaugh off the airwaves by threatening boycotts against advertisers on his conservative talk show, the nation’s most popular syndicated radio program.
Media Matters is supposed to be, according to Media Matters, non-partisan, and is supposed to serve, again, according to Media Matters as a watchdog of the media. Instead, they have made their real role obvious long ago. rather than a watchdog, they are an attack dog for the Left. I have long referred to Media Matters by a better name, Media Marxist Against America. Odd that Media Matters should be exposing this type of story, and fake news outlets like MSNBS. Instead, they are willing partners in online intimidation and censorship efforts it seems. Speaking on online thugs, Stacy also reports that Neal Rauhauser’s name has come up in connection with this too.
In attempting to discover the identity of “Randy Hahn,” the #StopRush boycott leader Shoq sought the services of Democrat consultant Neal Rauhauser, thee-mails obtained by The Trenches show. Rauhauser provided the group with extensive documentation about a Houston man named Jason, whose surname was redacted in the version posted by Bayne. Rauhauser then mused about exposing the man to harassment by sending his personal information to online groups.
“I have been sorely tempted to point him out to various actors — a guy like this, he could really produce some high quality entertainment for 4chan, Something Awful, Encyclopedia Dramatica, etc.,” Rauhauser wrote in his e-mail reply to Shoq.
Lots more at the link, Stacy has been all over this and continues to doggedly pursue the truth. More and more rats are sent scurrying as the light shines on them. No wonder the Left hates him. Stacy also has news of a motion for an injunction filed Friday on behalf of Aaron Walker
The following press release was just posted:

“Waiting to Exhale” author Terry McMillan managed to squeeze just about every anti-Republican stereotype into a stream of Twitter rants yesterday.
Oh, and she also compared members of the Grand Old Party to Hitler for good measure.
McMillan, known by many for using her May/December romance with a man who turned out to be gay to inspire her bestseller “How Stella Got Her Groove Back,” told her Twitter followers she’s never been more scared of the big, bad, racist GOP.
What follows, courtesy of Twitchy, is a hodge podge of pro-censorship, anti-logic comments capped by some lousy grammar.
I wish the Fox folks and Rush Limbaugh could get fined or thrown off the air for spreading lies. It should be a violation of ethics.
However, what the Republicans have made crystal clear is how racists they are & how many people in this country are too. And not hiding it.
Notice that the only thing the Republicans really worry about is money. Theirs. Not yours.
What kills me is how religious Republicans purport to be but they aren’t civil nor know anything about compassion & empathy. Hypocrites.
The Republicans are insulting Americans intelligence at a base level. That’s how arrogant they are. I am feeling apoplectic about now.
At least the media, especially MSNBC, is starting to call out the GOP on all of their antics and tactics. They’re hypocrisy is going to hurt
God grief! How bad is this woman’s education, or should I ask how effective her indoctrination went? She sounds like she swallowed every last drop of the Obama Kool-Aid, then dove head-first into the punch bowl of Leftist Propaganda Punch! I read her bio on her website, and marveled at her childhood, and her upbringing sounded like it would produce a Conservative, not a raving moonbat Leftist. But, then, I got to this part, and I must ask how her transfer from community college to UC Berkeley impacted her
Terry soon relocated again, transferring to UC Berkeley. The Black Power renaissance of the late 70’s was as serious as her afro was high. Her time in college was preparation for a career: a job that paid. Terry wanted to become a social worker, a stable job that would also allow her to save the world.
Ah, Black Power indoctrination might be at play here. As could be time spent at UC Berkeley. Sad that such a gifted writer seems still stuck in the past. Yes, it is well to remember the past, it can teach us much, but this woman seems, like many Liberals, to be entrenched in the bad old days. Like many Liberals, once “educated”, she seems to have closed her mind to differing views. Perhaps she prefers to emote her way through life. What a shame. She prefers to wallow in ignorance, and bitterness I suppose.
She would do herself a tremendous favor by broadening her horizons. Maybe actually get to know some Republicans instead of assuming we are all greedy and rich, and OF COURSE, racist!
If you launch a new radio show as a rival to Rush Limbaugh, it’s probably best not to do it the way Mike Huckabee just did.
Huckabee, who started a new program through Cumulus Media Network on Monday, is trying to carve out listenership from a conservative base that listens to Limbaugh religiously from 12-3p every day. In other words, he’s unashamedly going to war for the same listeners. But the conservative outlet The American Spectator was tipped out off to something interesting on the first day of Huckabee’s new show that might not help that cause: the first “listener” to call in was actually a radio executive involved in the show. And no one revealed that important detail.
“The very first phone call, arriving some fifty minutes into the show. To anyone with an ear for talk radio it had a startling quality,” the Spectator’s Jeffrey Lord, former Reagan White House political director, writes. “Why?”
“No one seemed to remember to give the call-in number to the audience until the very last few seconds of those first fifty minutes. But yet… presto!… within seconds, Mike Huckabee did in fact have a caller on the line! Without ever questioning how that caller could have gotten on that line in less time than it takes Obama to blame Bush for anything!”
The caller turned out to be none other than Mike McVay, the senior vice president of programming for Cumulus Media Network. Hmmm, a corny planted call. A corny stunt that anyone could tell was staged? What a shocker that Huckaphoney would go that route! Like I have said, Huck is a televangelist with a better hair cut. He is as fake as a three dollar bill, so this stunt really suited him perfectly!
One thing though, Huckabee did get something out of today, he earned my Daley Douchebag Award!
UPDATE! Dan Riehl hates Huck as much as I do, and offers his own Huck-a-Slap
How prophetic! And you know Mike “The Huckster” Huckabee knows what “prophetic” means. How is he going to get right with the Lord after this one? I mean, Jeff Lord at AmSpec, of course, who busts Mike Huckabee for the very first caller into the Huckster’s brand new (and born to fail) radio show being a staged caller? Worse, it was his boss and they hid that fact from … well, I was going to say listeners – unfortunately, I’m not sure he had any. A man’s faith can only accomplish so much and I don’t have much faith in Huck cutting it on the radio. Somehow, I think he’d play better at a funeral.
So, Mike Huckabee, or Mike Hokeybee as I call him, is going to get into the talk radio business. OK, fine, he might make it, but if he is going to go up against Rush, then, Huck’s tenure will be brief! And that is a good thing
(POLITICO) — Rush Limbaugh, the longstanding undisputed king of conservative talk radio who’s been dogged by controversy recently, is about to face some more heat. Not from the left, but this time from the right.
On Monday, former Arkansas governor and one-time Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee will launch a three-hour radio program on almost 200 stations across the country, going voice-to-voice with Limbaugh in the noon-to-3 p.m. time slot, Monday through Friday.
Cumulus Media, which owns and operates the new program, is already pitching Huckabee to listeners and advertisers as the “safe alternative” to a man who has recently found himself under weeks of intense fire — not for the first time — and who some believe could be vulnerable to a challenge from someone offering a kinder, gentler conservative voice.
“Our tagline is, ‘More conversation, less confrontation’,” Huckabee told POLITICO. “I’m going to treat every guest with respect and civility. Nobody is going to come on and get into a shouting match with me. That’s just not my style.”
Making a direct comparison with Limbaugh, John Dickey, the co-COO of Cumulus Media, adds, “This is going to be safer from a commercial standpoint, and more respectful from a listener’s perspective. I think that environment has been sorely lacking in talk radio.”
“Safe radio”? What is Huckabee going to broadcast with a condom on his mic? Give me a break, Huckabee is a used car salesman in a better suit, and he has less chance of hurting Rush’s ratings than he does being a genuine Conservative!
The monkey dung likely has some legitimate purpose! Via Breitbart TV
Understand this. Ed Schultz has no idea what actually happened that night. Zimmerman might have been within his rights, we shall see when all the evidence is seen. Zimmerman has not “walked free”. He might face charges still, and yes Ed we might come to find that Zimmerman was to blame, if so, put him in jail. But, what if Martin was to blame, we have an eye-witness that supports Zimmerman’s version of the events. Why do you continue to ignore that Ed? Oh, of course, it does not fit your narrative!
Further, Ed points out that there have been 65 “deaths” since the laws’ passage. And what about those “deaths” Ed? What were the circumstances Ed? Why did you just throw out the “65 deaths” line? Could it be that those deaths were legitimate cases of self-defense? Why is telling the whole story so tough Ed? And while we are talking truth Ed, try this on for size. The fact is you could not give a damn less about that dead kid! You care about one thing Ed. Exploiting his death for all it is worth.
One of the most sickening things I can think of is how some people, usually Leftists, will try to use anything, even a tragedy, for some political gain. Take for example, the death of Travon Martin. Donald Douglas blogged about this today,and he echoes many of my feelings
Actually, I’m not criticizing the outrage over this shooting. What I am criticizing is the left’s politicization of it. See Gateway Pundit, “It Begins… Far Left Media Ties Trayvon Martin Killing to Rush Limbaugh (Video).” Follow the link there to MSNBC analyst and Democratic strategist Karen Finney, who makes an aggressive attempt link the GOP presidential candidates to the death of Trayvon Martin.
MSNBC analyst and Democratic strategist Karen Finney disgustingly smeared Rush Limbaugh and several Republican presidential candidates on Thursday, charging that the racist hate of these conservatives had “lethal consequences” in the case of Trayvon Martin, an African American teen shot in Florida.
After decrying “bigotry and stereotypes tak[ing] over our better judgment,” Finney sneeringly insisted that when “Rush Limbaugh calls a presidential candidate, Senator Barack Obama, a magic negro…In the case of Trayvon, those festering stereotypes had lethal consequences.”
How low are these miscreants willing to go? Karen Finney ought to be ashamed of herself. She does not give a flip about Travon Martin, or his grieving parents. Frankly, I do not see how a person like her sleeps at night. Back to Donald Douglas’s piece though
Farrakhan and his followers are boils on the ass of this nation. Sorry, but that is the hard truth. Of course, the Left or their willing lapdogs in the media will never call Farrakhan on his outright call to violence will they?
And while it’s elevated, the discussion from last night’s PBS NewsHour isn’t that much better. I’m interested especially in the commentary from The Altantic‘s racial-grivance columnistTa-Nehisi Coates, who is interviewed. Listening to the guy he’s clearly less impressive an intellectual when one actually hears his patter on television. He sounds not much more than a homie with a suit. Worse though is thisDonna Britt lady, who says “Thank God” Treyvon Martin “looks like a kid … he looks like someone who is young and vulnerable and who matters. And that’s part of the reason why people have responded so much…” That’s really cold and offensive — it wouldn’t matter if the victim was a genuine black thug? — and it’s a way for black intellectuals to completely discount — even hide — the real pathologies in the black community. For example, I’m no fan of Geraldo Rivero, but I think he’s right to point out that the way the boy was dressed could have been a factor in his killing. So notice the discrepancy here: A black intellectual confesses that we should thank God that the boy wasn’t an invulnerable hardened criminal, and that’s “part of the reason people have responded so much,” but when Geraldo Rivera speaks out on gangsta attire that’s “victim blaming.” Honestly, only on the left do you see these kinds of disgusting double standards.
Once more, the heartlessness of the Left is exposed. Rather than mourning a young life tragically lost, they only seem to care about how they can pimp that tragedy for their own gain. What a sorry bunch of bastards!
Just kidding, blogging is good, although not ALL blogs, or bloggers are good, or worth your time. But, in general, I welcome new bloggers. And so, Bristol Palin is now blogging, asSmitty and Bob Belvedere note today. Smitty also notes that Palin is now more relevant than a certain other “blogger” you know,the one with the Massive Melons
And,instantly, becomes more important than “warmly conformly” Meghan McCain. See, Meghan: if you show some moral courage, despite life’s adversities, you too could eventually be worthy of respect.
Meghan McCain, of course might grow up enough one day to realize that she is not as “hip”as she thinks. Sure, the media fawns over her now.She says what the media wants her to say about Republicans. In other words, Meghan bashes Republicans while claiming to be one. Naturally, if Meghan ever dares to praise Conservatives, the media will turn on her. But, she is simply too naive to understand that.
As to Bristol Palin, one of her first posts covered the Left’s Selective Outrage Syndrome over women’s issues.
Dear President Obama,
You don’t know my telephone number, but I hope your staff is busy trying to find it. Ever since you called Sandra Fluke after Rush Limbaugh called her a slut, I figured I might be next. You explained to reporters you called her because you were thinking of your two daughters, Malia and Sasha. After all, you didn’t want them to think it was okay for men to treat them that way:
“One of the things I want them to do as they get older is engage in issues they care about, even ones I may not agree with them on,” you said. “I want them to be able to speak their mind in a civil and thoughtful way. And I don’t want them attacked or called horrible names because they’re being good citizens.”
And I totally agree your kids should be able to speak their minds and engage the culture. I look forward to seeing what good things Malia and Sasha end up doing with their lives.
But here’s why I’m a little surprised my phone hasn’t rung. Your $1,000,000 donor Bill Maher has said reprehensible things about my family. He’s made fun of my brother because of his Down’s Syndrome. He’s said I was “f—-d so hard a baby fell out.” (In a classy move, he did this while his producers put up the cover of my book, which tells about the forgiveness and redemption I’ve found in God after my past – very public — mistakes.)
If Maher talked about Malia and Sasha that way, you’d return his dirty money and the Secret Service would probably have to restrain you. After all, I’ve always felt you understood my plight more than most because your mom was a teenager. That’s why you stood up for me when you were campaigning against Sen. McCain and my mom — you said vicious attacks on me should be off limits.
Yet I wonder if the Presidency has changed you. Now that you’re in office, it seems you’re only willing to defend certain women. You’re only willing to take a moral stand when you know your liberal supporters will stand behind you.
Of course,that was the 2008 campaigning Obama. Trying to paint himself as a uniter,and non-partisan. That,of course,was all a facade, as I am sure Bristol Palin knows.
When Alamo Heights high school basketball players chanted “USA” after winning a game, they were punished severely by educrats and vociferously denounced in the media for “racism.” Elsewhere in San Antonio, punks broke into a guy’s house and spray-painted “Die Whitey” on the wall; the authorities can’t figure out if it’s a hate crime.
Why have we allowed the Left to screw this nation up this badly? And it is not just limited to the absurd racial speech codes the left is shackling us with. You know,the ones that allow Liberals to use racist terms like “White Boys”. Kurt has another exampleof how the Left is killing us
So, do the two giant soft drink manufacturers pull their products from the shelves and tell Sacramento to pound sand? NOoooo, they ask how much time they have to obey some BS health law that doesn’t affect anyone at all. So, California is broke, and THIS is what their legislature focuses on? And why do the voters keep electing these morons? Maybe they are all stoned
Bill Burton, the head of the super-PAC supporting President Obama’s reelection effort, said Thursday that while some of comedian Bill Maher’s comments “were vulgar and inappropriate” he did not believe they were similar in tone to controversial statements last week by radio host Rush Limbaugh.
Maher, host of HBO’s “Real Time,” recently announced a $1 million donation to the Priorities USA group helmed by Burton. But conservatives have argued the group should return the donation because some of the comedian’s past statements have been as controversial as remarks made by Limbaugh and denounced by the president and leading Democrats.
Limbaugh came under fire for calling Georgetown Law student Sandra Fluke, who testified to Congress in favor of mandating coverage for contraception, a “slut” and a “prostitute.” But supporters of the conservative talk show host argue Maher has also used derogatory terms — including “bimbo” and “twat” — to describe prominent Republican politicians, including former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.
MSNBC host Andrea Mitchell asked Burton, a former Obama campaign press secretary, if that was a double standard, a charge Burton deflected by arguing that Maher was a comedian, not a political commentator.
“First of all, obviously, some of those things were vulgar and inappropriate and said over the course of years of a comedian’s life. It’s not language I would use or language we would use at Priorities USA,” Burton said. “But the notion that there is an equivalence between what a comedian has said over the course of his career and what the de facto leader of the Republican Party said to sexually degrade a woman who led in a political debate of our time, is crazy.”
“There’s no just similarity about what Rush Limbaugh said, lying about the argument that Ms. Fluke was making — a law student at Georgetown — and what a comedian has said in the past,”he added.
Break out the tar and feathers. And hurry up before these Nanny Statists start rationing our food
After all, whosoever controls our daily bread, controls us—lock, stock, and large intestine. Ask any Ukrainian.
The ultimate liberal goal is not a fair distribution of fresh food. The market distributes goods according to supply and demand and manufacturers distribute their products according to demand. The intent is to take away our freedoms. Food is now a variable of class struggle and a form of discrimination because “the poor and downtrodden are getting junk food while the snobs get fancy food.”
According to food police at school, your mom does not know what is best for you, your government does, following Michelle Obama’s nutrition dictates. Food and the distribution of food has become a social issue in the collectivist/socialist ideology. We must all be equal in the leftist view and the government must step in to regulate food distribution and delivery. “Food Justice” Has Arrived
Financier and progressive activist George Soros is formulating a move to control food and grain production by purchasing grain elevators in late March in several parts of the United States through his Soros Managment Fund’s backed Gavilon Grain.
With strong ties to the Obama administration, Soros now has both the economic, and political clout to begin consolidation of purchasing and shipping domestic agriculture around the world.
Why grain elevators, you wonder?
What most folks don’t understand it is the Grain Elevator Operator who makes the money, and controls the prices for the most part. Not the commodities market. You control the Grain operator, you control the food supply. (Bunkerville comment via George Soros: How Much Is Enough For This Man? | Conservatives On Fire)
Like I said grab the tar, the feathers,and hurry up!
No, Rush really should not have called Fluke a slut, he should have called her a liar, but that is a different story. The point is,that Obama called Fluke to offer his support, Liberals all rushed to defend Fluke, yet,Obama accepted 1,000,000 dollars from Bill Maher. Hmmm, anyone want to take a stab at the incredibly offensive things Maher has said about many women, including Sarah Palin? Do I detect a bit of a double standard here? Of course I do,because Liberals suffer from Selective Outrage Syndrome. They express outrage when it suits them, and ONLY when it suits them. Just another examplethat illustrates that Liberalism is an ideology of convenience.
A liberal will feign outrage over Rush calling a woman a slut, but laugh when Maher calls Palin a Cunt over and over and over,or when Keith Olbermann calls Michelle Malkin a “mashed up bag of meat”, or when Ed Schultz calls Laura Ingraham terrible names.
But she is a damned phony! Who could not see this coming? This is right out of the Democratic playbook. Red Alexandria, new to our blogroll, has the scoop
I put that in quotes because in the beginning she was described as a Georgetown law student. It was then revealed that prior to attending Georgetown she was an active women’s right advocate. In one of her first interviews she is quoted as talking about how she reviewed Georgetown’s insurance policy prior to committing to attend, and seeing that it didn’t cover contraceptive services, she decided to attend with the express purpose of battling this policy. During this time, she was described as a 23-year-old coed. Magically, at the same time Congress is debating the forced coverage of contraception, she appears and is even brought to Capitol Hill to testify. This morning, in an interview with Matt Lauer on the Today show, it was revealed that she is 30 years old, NOT the 23 that had been reported all along.
In other words, folks, you are being played. She has been an activist all along and the Dems were just waiting for the appropriate time to play her.
Right out of the Democrats playbook. They magically produce this poor girl, so young, so victimized. Silenced by those darned EVIL Republicans. She goes to Congress, tells some stories that may, or may not be true, take my advice and bet on containing high levels of BS, and presto!! The Democrats, create a “victim” a “voice of reason” and the media sucks it up and regurgitates it to the masses. The Republicans look like a bunch of prudes that want women to be sick, and the Democrats look like heroes!
Of course, you need hip-waders to get through all the baloney in the Sandra Fluke “story”, but, how many Americans will believe the story?
A Catholic high school student is appealing a suspension he received after distributing a Valentine’s Day letter to classmates that praised women’s inner beauty.
“Real attractiveness comes from having a certain dignity,” wrote Paul Gomille, a 17-year-old student at Archbishop Denis O’Connor Catholic High School.
Initially, Principal Donna Modeste was on board with his idea, said Gomille, who wanted to deliver his message as a speech. … But later, Modeste suggested some revisions to the address, in particular sentences where Gomille is “judgmental” and describes his audience as “the ones that don’t talk about people behind their backs, the ones that guys don’t flock to in droves, the ones that don’t dress in revealing clothing.”
Gomille didn’t comply with Modeste and ultimately decided to make 136 copies of his speech — the approximate number of students who sit in the cafeteria — and distribute them on Feb. 14, during lunch.
Hours later, he was summoned to the principal’s office and handed a two-day suspension for his “opposition to authority.” Gomille served his at-home suspension on Feb 15 and 16.
What was the offending passage?
The people this message concerns are the young women of this school, and of the world. In particular, it concerns the silent ones, the intelligent ones, the ones that don’t talk about people behind their backs, the ones that guys don’t flock to in droves, the ones that don’t dress in revealing clothing, the ones who would love to be in love, and the ones that are continually disappointed in their appearance because the only thing they have to compare themselves to are the women that have been put on pedestals by our society. This message also concerns those of you who may consider yourselves the so called “opposite” to the demographic I just described. The ones who do dress in revealing clothing, and the ones who try to fit in with the crowd.
And the Speech codes continue. One day, if we are not careful, we will all be too scared to even speak, and of course, that IS what the Left wants isn’t it?
“That language is insulting, in my opinion. It’s incendiary and most of all, it’s a distraction. It’s a distraction from what are very real and important issues,” said Fiorina on CBS’s “This Morning.”
Well of course Rush Limbaugh was being insulting. He was using it and sarcasm to highlight the absurdity of Sandra Fluke and the left’s position, which in a nut shell is they think you, me, and every other American should pay for them to have sex.
They call it “women’s health”, but the language associated with it involves pregnancy and sex. They have, in other words, turned “women’s health” into a euphemism for having sex.
Bill Quick lays it on the line, I could not agree any more with him
Of course. This is the leftist, Alinskyite strategy: change the very meaning of language so that not only can you not talk about opposing the left, it becomes difficult even to think about such opposition.
That’s why I’m so brutal in my own use of language. I call “post birth abortion” cold blooded murder. I call “leftists” communists, because in the end, they all worship at the dark altar of Karl Marx. (We already know what you are – now we’re just dickering over price…).
We who love liberty in America are in a war to the death (of liberty) with the communists. It is a war of ideas, and must of necessity be fought with words. Don’t let them take the words we need to wage that fight away from us.
“Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney renewed…” Now, listen to me, folks. Mitt Romney “renewed his support yesterday for automatic increases in the federal minimum wage to keep pace with inflation, a position sharply at odds with traditional Republican business allies, conservatives, and party senior lawmakers.” By the way, folks, have you seen the teenage unemployment rate in this country? Well, can you say “25%”? It’s 16%, 18%. It’s way, way up there. The teenage unemployment rate, it’s at record highs.
…………..
Whatever it is, it is at a record high, and why do you think that is? In part, it’s the minimum wage. Businesses are having enough trouble as it is in this economy, and then to be told to go out and hire a bunch of people who have no experience and pay them an arbitrary amount of money that has no relationship to the business’s operation or cost structure, is literally absurd. And so the only option the small businessman has is not hiring anybody. You can price it… It’s sort of like raising tax rates and these dummkopfs in Washington think, “Well, you raise the tax rate and these taxpayers just sit out there like a bunch of idiots and they’ll pay it,” and every time tax rates are increased, guess what? Revenue goes down. If you want more of an activity, you cut taxes on it. If you want less of an activity, you raise taxes.
If you want more homes sold, then you allow the interest on a mortgage to be deducted. If you don’t want a lot of homes to be sold, take that deduction away. If you want to spur teenage hiring, lower the minimum wage or get rid of it. If you want to retard teenage hiring – if you want to slow it down, if you want to limit the amount of teenagers to get jobs – raise the cost of hiring them. And that’s what an increase in the minimum wage is. The minimum wage, the stock conservative answer to it is get rid of it. It certainly isn’t to raise it. It certainly isn’t to tie it to the cost of living index. But here we have from the AP: “Republican presidential contender Mitt Romney renewed his support Wednesday for automatic increases in the federal minimum wage to keep pace with inflation.
“Said the former Massachusetts governor, ‘I haven’t changed my thoughts on that.’ He told reporters this aboard his chartered campaign plane, referring to a stand he’s held for ten years.” Yeah, I want to raise the minimum wage. “He did not say if he would ask Congress to approve it.” Now, to my e-mail. “Dear Rush: You know Romney doesn’t really believe this. Romney has to know the harm the minimum wage increase causes. This is probably a backtrack to show he cares about the poor.” So here we have – and this is not criticism. It’s an illustration. He’s doubled down on it. On an increase in the minimum wage, and a Romney supporter says, “No, no, Rush. He really doesn’t mean that.” What do you do? “He really doesn’t mean it.” It’s not helpful.
Look, I’m not being critical of this e-mailer. This e-mailer is a teachable moment. Mitt Romney says he’s doubled down. “I believe in an automatic increase in the minimum wage tied to inflation.” The Romney supporter says, “He doesn’t really mean that. He has to know the harm the minimum wage begets.” Well, for ten years he’s held the policy and he’s telling us today he’s doubling down on it. If he knows the harm it causes, why does he support it? E-mail contains the answer. “He’s probably just backtracking to show he cares about the poor. This is a way to try to make up for his blunder on the poor comment.” Well, doubling down on this only makes it worse. ‘Cause let me tell you what’s going on.
…………..
There is a Republican primary going on right now, and who votes in a Republican primary? Starts with a C. Conservatives. There are elements of conservatism that are fundamental. And we conservatives, we have radar. We know when somebody isn’t. If a Republican doesn’t know the studied truth, the published data on the minimum wage, then red flags go up. It’s not that hard. By the way, you don’t have to have read a bunch of conservative work. You don’t have to have immersed yourself in a bunch of conservative magazines to understand here it’s no different than a tax increase. The minimum wage is a tax increase on small business disguised in fairness to the poor. You know what small businesses do, especially at a time like this? They say, “Okay, I’ll go hire interns, pay ‘em nothing. Just go hire interns.” There’s always a way around this stuff.
There’s always a way around onerous regulations. Sometimes it’s not worth the trouble. Other times it is. The national teenage unemployment rate in November, 21.4%. The teenage unemployment rate in Washington is over 50%. Now, who does the unemployment rate hit besides teenagers? It hits the unskilled worker. The unskilled worker who needs the first rung of that ladder. We got two great examples here. The comment on the poor. I know what Mitt Romney was trying to do. I know what he was trying to say. In the process of doing what he did, saying what he said, he made it clear that he is a stranger to fundamental conservatism. And for the people who oppose Romney, that’s the biggest red flag.
The Republican primary is made up of largely conservative voters. A lot of people think Romney’s conservative enough; others say he’s not conservative at all. And these two statements, “I don’t care about the poor. We’ll fix the safety net.” No. No. The whole safety net idea is a disaster. It’s robbing people of opportunity. It’s robbing people of dignity. It’s creating dependents. It’s creating perpetual Democrat voters reproducing. That’s what it is. That’s what it was designed for. LBJ, FDR, that was the purpose in all it is, to create an ever-growing and perpetually renewing pool of Democrat voters who never learn to depend on themselves, who never learn the skills to support themselves. That’s fine with the Democrat Party. That’s fine with guys like Barack Obama.
Two things happen. Those people become dependent and then you run around and talk about how heartless and cruel the Republicans are for opposing ever more money in the policy to give them ever more benefits. So it’s a double whammy for ‘em. And the only way out of this is for somebody who understands conservatism in elective office to explain it. We can do it all day here on talk radio, the blogs, the conservative magazines, the conservative education establishment. They can write, they can publish all the stuff they want. But at some point you have to have a candidate. Who is this? Who instinctively understands this? Who can say this on the stump? A Reagan, if you will. I’m not asking for a carbon copy of Ronaldus Magnus. Everybody knows that’s not possible. The real safety net’s a job. The real safety net is a job, and the minimum wage is one of the many obstacles in the way of people trying to find work in this economy.
But it boils down to conservatism. So I guarantee you there are a lot of people who oppose Romney in conservative circles who are pointing to these two examples, saying, “See, this is what we’ve been trying to tell you,” and what are they up against? “Well, you know, he has to know the minimum wage causes problems.” If he has to know, why is he supporting it? “Well, he has to, Rush. The media’s liberal, he’s gotta act like he cares about the poor.” Well, that’s McCain. We’re tired of having to tailor what we do and say to get the approval of the New York Times or the Washington Post or everybody else in the media, the Democrat Party. We want somebody who can teach, who can inform, who can explain, who can persuade the way we can. Pure and simple.
…………..
And businesses, you think that they’re sitting around getting screwed – and they are, in their own way with all these regulations. But if the minimum wage gets to the point, and it arbitrarily is, ’cause it’s never related to market forces, what will businesses do? They’ll just hire young people as interns and not pay them anything, or pay them very little. Don’t pay ‘em at all. So internships become the only entry-level position open up to young people. That’s not good. They get college credits from Obama’s friends in Big Education for doing the internship, but that’s it. Your first job, you know nothing. You don’t know anything. They’re training you, they’re teaching you. I learned shining shoes. And there wasn’t a minimum wage. I made $50 in three months. There was no minimum wage. It was whatever I earned, which was fine with me.
And then there’s this added distortion that everybody who earns the minimum wage has a family of four to support. This is another part of the charade the Democrats play. They try to convince you that every minimum wage earner is a 40-year-old, bedraggled person who the Republicans don’t care about, who the Republicans are trying to keep poor and homeless, trying desperately in this horrid country to support a family of four. And the vast majority of people on the minimum wage are teenagers, young people. If the minimum wage gets too high and then they start cracking down on interns, what’s the next place business will go? Illegal aliens. You see how this works? The minimum wage can be said to be responsible for a whole bunch of problems in this country. While a bunch of dummkopfs run around thinking with their hearts, “Oh, boy, is that compassion. We need a high minimum wage, Mr. Limbaugh, so that these unfortunate people can at least go out and buy some Swiss cheese. That’s the kind with holes in it. It’s gotta be cheaper than the real cheese, right, Mr. Limbaugh? And you just oppose this.” No.
So it all gets couched as people who oppose it, mean-spirited, cold-hearted, want people to be poor when it’s just the opposite. We want the best for everybody. We want everybody to be able to taste the opportunity this country provides. You take the bottom rung of the ladder away from ‘em and you create a bunch of dependent people who then beget a whole bunch of other dependent people. The number one most important thing about them is they vote Democrat, which ensures they’re going to be kept dependent. That’s why it matters that a Republican conservative be able to counter that and all the other distortions that are out there about conservatism.
That’s why this matters. It’s why it matters that, “Well, I don’t really care about the poor. They’ve got a safety net. If that needs repairs, I’ll fix it.” Um, everybody knows he was trying to zero in and say, “The middle class is who’s getting hurt,” and I appreciate that, but that’s been lost in this, hasn’t it? But why has it been lost? Not ’cause the media is unfair. Everybody knows that going in. It’s not because the media is doing something dirty to Romney. It’s because he gave ‘em the chance. In this charged atmosphere, if you don’t instinctively know that saying, “I don’t care about the poor,” means whatever follows is never gonna be heard – if you don’t instinctively understand that – then people are going to question just how conservative you really are.
That’s what’s happening here. I’m just trying to explain it to you, folks. (New Castrati impression) “So, Mr. Limbaugh, does this mean that you endorsing Newt?” No, no, no. Don’t go there. Snerdley don’t put up a bunch of calls today that are gonna try to apply pressure, ’cause it isn’t gonna happen.
The Reagan administration, by the way, is the only administration in recent history to not raise the minimum wage – and look how that hurt the economy! Yeah. Thomas Sowell, once called the minimum wage “the Black Youth Unemployment Act.” I get e-mails from Greg Mueller a lot. Greg Mueller is a public relations guy who always sends me notes about what his clients think, what he wants me to say about ‘em, and he sent me this. He said, “Hey, Rush. Here’s my view in today’s National Journal. Some Republicans said that Romney spoke a simple truth, one the middle class understands. Romney was saying that the very rich can take care of themselves, the very poor receive numerous benefits; that it’s the working middle class that’s often overtaxed and neglected in tough economic times,” said Mueller.
“This is true, and Romney’s point was the best way to raise all boats is through limited government and a free economy, not socialism. We’ll win that argument.” Did Romney say “raise all boats” and “limited government” and all that? Here again, let’s read between the lines: “Let’s look at what Romney didn’t say for what he means,” and there are people… I should tell you this, “just to be fair.” There are people who are sending me notes say, “Rush, you’re missing the boat. Romney is genuine. This is authentic. He’s not worried about saying it the right way. This is authentic! Here’s a guy who’s not trying to shape and form his comments for consumption. He’s just open book.
“He’s just telling us who he really is and what he really thinks, and that’s authentic, Rush, and everybody says we need more authenticity in our candidates.” This is my point. It’s all over the board, and I don’t think an endorsement is gonna change anybody. That’s my point.
