  • Dem does his best Gaddafi impression to rouse the union thugs

    Old Trooper sent us this link from The Hill quoting Democrats as they rouse their union thug constituents and urge them to “get a little bloody when necessary”.

    Here’s what Gaddafi said to his supporters;

    “You men and women who love Gadhafi … get out of your homes and fill the streets,” he said. “Leave your homes and attack them in their lairs.”

    And here’s Rep. Michael Capuano (D-Mass.)

    “Every once and awhile you need to get out on the streets and get a little bloody when necessary.”

    […]

    “This is going to be a struggle at least for the next two years. Let’s be serious about this. They’re not going to back down and we’re not going to back down. This is a struggle for the hearts and minds of America,” Capuano told union members.

    And, oh, how they’ll screech at the sight of their own blood. Of course, we should forgive Capuano because he probably meant blood figuratively or something. Rhetorical blood, perhaps.

    What makes it so funny is that Liberals are mostly a bunch of dainty fairies who think they’ll get to push, shove and punch without any retribution.

  • Unions call for violence in Mad City

    Old Trooper send us a link to a blog, “Rebel Pundit“, which caught the Organizing for America and Service Employees International Union cabal calling for blood in their confrontation with Tea Party folks coming to Madison, WI today.

    I don’t know what that “we” shit is in reference to Egypt, but I think the “bloody them and send them back where they belong” is pretty clear. I don’t think the OFA/SEIU crowd realizes that they’re letting their alligator mouths overload their hummingbird asses.

  • Tea Party heads for WI

    Reportedly, Jim Hoft, the Gateway Pundit and Andrew Brietbart are headed to Madison, WI to show their support for Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. Also reported is thousands of Tea Partiers are headed there as well.

    Mother Jones’ writer Stephanie Mencimer sees all kinds of ties and connections to the Tea Party contingent and filthy Republican cash and support;

    …the pro-Walker rally in Wisconsin is not just a product of grassroots citizen spontaneity. American Majority was founded and is run by Ned Ryun. He is a former speechwriter for George W. Bush and the son of former Kansas Rep. Jim Ryun (R), who was tainted by the Jack Abramoff lobbying scandal. Ned’s twin brother Drew was the deputy director of grassroots for the Republican National Committee in 2004. Drew Ryun also works for American Majority, an outfit run by established GOP operatives. The group gets most of its money from the Sam Adams Alliance, and the alliance’s funding is not publicly known.

    Blah, blah blah, blah…blah. She continues on, but ya know what? She doesn’t mention the fact that the supposedly spontaneous teacher strike and the noisy fucks on the Left’s side aren’t all that [insert air quotes here] grassroots either (ABC News);

    Organizing for America, Obama’s campaign arm now under the umbrella of the DNC, has been mobilizing union members and supporters to rally against a proposed Wisconsin budget measure that would strip workers of collective bargaining rights and force them to contribute more for benefits.

    Leaders have initiated phone banks and on-the-ground canvassing, and relied on a social media blitz on Facebook and Twitter to build turnout.

    DNC Chairman Tim Kaine also reportedly spoke with Wisconsin union leaders and state legislators ahead of the protests, the Huffington Post reported, signaling his direct involvement in coordinating the effort.

    So I guess this kind of like a proxy war and no one is being honest about who is behind what. And it looks like it’s just a skirmish before the big dogs deal it out over the Federal budget. Did I mention that Mike Pence led the House in voting down funds for Planned Parenthood? That ought to intensify the battle a bit.

  • Modesto neighbors to hire private security

    500 residents of a Modesto, CA neighborhood decided they can’t depend on the police to protect them now, so they plan to hire a private security company to do the job for which they already pay taxes.

    The residents are members of the College Area Neighborhood Alliance.

    “I don’t know the feeling on an armed patrol. That may becoming a little bit drastic,” said neighbor Dave Jones. “I don’t feel the need for it yet.”

    Residents must first approve the plan to bring in armed security guards and at least 500 residents will have to pay $25 a month for the patrol.

    Old Trooper sent me the link with the comment that I’d enjoy the comments. Most of the comments are the type you’d expect; if you clowns hadn’t let the government take your guns, you wouldn’t need a hired security force. But I especially liked this comment from a Canadian;

    John

    If you american conservative moneybags opened your wallets a little, maybe poor people wouldn’t be forced to steal??
    In Canada we have a safety net for everyone including the rich. By looking after our less advantaged, the rich are much safer here.
    BTW- we don’t want your rich. They only blow up the banking system with their greedy selfserving ways.

    Yeah, I’d rather deal with crooks in Modesto than liberals in Canada.

  • HuffPost predicts US coup

    Lorelei Kelly, a diarist at the Huffington Post is worried that we’re too dependent on the US military and that it will have dire consequences at some point in the future. She admits in the opening paragraphs that the main reason Egypt’s military has presided over a somewhat peaceful transition is because the officers were trained in the United States in their responsibilities in a republic, but she doesn’t have the same faith in the trainers;

    Military professionals normally observe a bright line between expert advice and political advocacy. Yet these boundaries are shifting. Here are some indicators of imbalance:

    1. An overstretched military gradually resents a society that does not sacrifice. This separation stirs alienation and possibly even arrogance, increasing our civil / military divide

    Our military is accustomed to operating in conditions influenced by intellectually lazy and arrogant politicians. They’re rather good at just doing their job and ignoring the flatulence that emanates from Washington and Berkely.

    2. The military adopts counterinsurgency i.e. nation building. Our Army has become good at monitoring/controlling populations and engaging in economic development projects. Congress doesn’t stop or modify this trend.

    It’s the military’s job since the end of World War II to adjust from war fighters to police mostly because there’s no one else in the entire world who will significantly step up to the task. Witness: the giant cluster fuck in Haiti.

    3. Katrina — we used active duty forces to help bring relief to a disaster area. We become too comfortable with military troops on duty in our domestic terrrain. i.e. calls to the Mexican border.

    Again, because the military does what it says it will do, while bureaucrats engage themselves in jobs programs and never seem to accomplish anything besides entrenching themselves in petty fiefdoms.

    4. Rising “Veteranism” where the military is given incrementally more credibility as a legitimate political voice. Both the Left and the Right are guilty of using veteran branding.

    Ask yourself “Why?”. Why do people inflate their resume`s with military experience they never had? Maybe it’s because veterans have a proven track record of unequaled performance.

    5. Loss of confidence in Government — low public opinion in our elected officials and a poisoned system.

    That speaks for itself.

    So Ms. Kelly’s solution is to cut off funds for the military, instead of demanding that government promise fewer things it can’t accomplish, and focus more on things it can do. But, they send more civilians to muck up what the military does well (Eikenberry and his jolly band of misfits in Afghanistan, for example).

    Kelly ends her missive with;

    p.s. Thank you Representative Betty McCollum for pointing out the wastefulness of the NASCAR/military sponsorship. Just one more example of what needs to stop.

    Yes, you addle-brained liberal. We need to stop attracting qualified and motivated youngsters to the only branch of the government that performs as it’s expected to perform.

  • The language of the future

    Old Trooper sends us a link to an article from Dallas/Fort Worth’s ABC station announcing that a school in Mansfield, Texas is requiring students to learn Arabic;

    As part of the five-year $1.3 million grant, Arabic classes would be mandatory at Cross Timbers Intermediate School and Kenneth Davis Elementary School. The program would also be optional for students at T. A. Howard Middle School and Summit High School.

    Parents at Cross Timbers say they were caught off-guard by the program, and were surprised the district only told them about it in a meeting Monday night between parents and Mansfield ISD Superintendent Bob Morrison.

    I don’t think there’s anything wrong with students learning another language. When I learned Spanish and German, I learned how to use my own English more effectively. But to make it mandatory? In elementary school?

    But what’s really laughable is that the Department of Education calls Arabic “a language of the future”. WTF? If your future includes a stint as a goat roper in Yemen, maybe, but not as a language of commerce, diplomacy or even literature. At least not to the extent that it’s mandatory in elementary school. An elective language maybe…not forced down students’ throats. Especially in Texas.

    And they’re going include Arabic culture without making it about religion? That’s impossible. Arabic culture is called Islam. Every bit of their culture and laws come from the Koran. I don’t know how it’s even possible to separate the two.

    This is the height of dhimmitude. The US Department of Education has surrendered to politically correct pressure and it demonstrates perfectly why there should be no Department of Education.

  • WashPost: Five Reagan myths

    First of all, I can’t imagine the Washington Post running an article on five myths about Bill Clinton or Jimmy Carter, yet on Reagan’s 100th birthday, they have the gall to run an article entitled “Five myths about Ronald Reagan’s legacy“. Of course, none of those myths are about Democrat charges against Ronald Reagan – that would be too much to expect, I suppose. So, author Will Bunch begins;

    1. Reagan was one of our most popular presidents.

    It’s true that Reagan is popular more than two decades after leaving office. A CNN/Opinion Research poll last month gave him the third-highest approval rating among presidents of the past 50 years, behind John F. Kennedy and Bill Clinton. But Reagan’s average approval rating during the eight years that he was in office was nothing spectacular – 52.8 percent, according to Gallup.

    Yeah, we’ll just disregard the poll and go with the polls that were taken during his presidency. I was on Pennsylvania Avenue the day they brought Ronald Reagan’s mortal coil to lie in state at the Capitol building – along with about a million other people. The Metro ridership record was shattered that day – the record it shattered was Bill Clinton’s inauguration.

    2. Reagan was a tax-cutter.
    ad_icon

    Certainly, Reagan’s boldest move as president was his 1981 tax cut, a sweeping measure that slashed the marginal rate on the wealthiest Americans from 70 percent to 50 percent. The legislation also included smaller cuts in lower tax brackets, as well as big breaks for corporations and the oil industry. But the following year, as the economy was mired in recession and the federal deficit was spiraling out of control, even groups such as the Business Roundtable lobbied Reagan to raise taxes. And he did: The Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 was, at the time, the largest peacetime tax increase in U.S. history.

    Yeah, Reagan signed the tax hikes because the Democrat Congress promised that they’d cut $3 of spending for every $1 of tax increases. Of course, they never did.

    3. Reagan was a hawk.

    Long before he was elected president, Reagan predicted that the Soviet Union would collapse because of communism’s inherent corruption and inefficiency. His forecast proved accurate, but it is not clear that his military buildup moved the process forward. Though Reagan expanded the U.S. military and launched new weapons programs, his real contributions to the end of the Cold War were his willingness to negotiate arms reductions with Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev and his encouragement of Gorbachev as a domestic reformer.

    “It is not clear”, but apparently it’s clear enough to dispute it it an article, huh? When I first went to Germany, also the day of the Desert One fiasco, we were wearing clothes and cold-weather gear left over from the Korean War and equipment left over from fighting in the jungles of Vietnam. The Soviets, in the meantime, were two generations ahead of us in armor. When I left Germany the second time, on the day that the Soviets also left Afghanistan, we had surpassed the capabilities of the Soviets. If we had gone to Desert Storm with Jimmy Carter’s army, we’d have won, but just barely.

    4. Reagan shrank the federal government.

    The number of federal employees grew from 2.8 million to 3 million under Reagan, in large part because of his buildup at the Pentagon. (It took the Democratic administration of President Bill Clinton to trim the employee rolls back to 2.7 million.) Reagan also abandoned a campaign pledge to get rid of two Cabinet agencies – Energy and Education – and added a new one, Veterans Affairs.

    Yeah, making the Department of Veterans’ Affairs a Department instead of an agency is what swelled federal government. Never mind that Defense is one of the things that government should be doing. Reagan increased the size of the Defense Department because Jimmy Carter allowed it to atrophy to a dangerous condition. Witness: Desert One. Bill Clinton reduced the ranks, not the civilians at the Pentagon, by buying out careerists, and then within a few years he was trying to bring them back on active duty when his meals-on-wheels programs were affecting morale.

    5. Reagan was a conservative culture warrior.

    Reagan’s contributions to the culture wars of the 1980s were largely rhetorical and symbolic.

    Um, aren’t culture wars “largely rhetorical and symbolic”. I know Democrats are famous for legislating morality and behavior, but that doesn’t mean that Republicans should do the same just to prove their point.

  • Bradley Minning is just like Martin Luther King, Jr.

    Dingus Kevin Zeese writes at the Huffington Post that Bradley Manning, the incarcerated traitor who unloaded his computer of classified informationonto the world, walks in the footprints of Martin Luther King, Jr. the civil rights leader who brought a dawn from our segregationist past. First Matthis and now Manning. Why are white people so quick to point how MLK they can be?

    Bradley Manning, a young man from Oklahoma, believed as many Americans do, that the U.S. is a force for good in the world. It was not until he was in Iraq and when he saw documents and videos crossing his computer screen that he realized America does not play the role he had been told.

    Bradley Manning had a fight with his boyfriend and somehow figured this would teach him. There’s nothing noble about what he did…he cost people their lives because he had a hissy fit. This is the height of idiocy. It doesn’t serve to elevate the image of Bradley Manning and drags MLK’s image through the mud. WTF is it with white liberals these days?
