Occupy Wall Street Pwned by Bums

Leave a comment

Sounds like the Marxist morons haven’t quite found in their hearts the convictions they advertise:

“We need to limit the amount of food we’re putting out” to curb the influx of derelicts, said Rafael Moreno, a kitchen volunteer.

A security volunteer added that the cooks felt “overworked and underappreciated.”

Many of those being fed “are professional homeless people. They know what they’re doing,” said the guard at the food-storage area.

Just a moment.  What gives any of these fools the right to that food?  Why should the food (which none of them grew) be considered “theirs”?  And so what if their work goes unappreciated?  Are they suggesting that the benefit of their labor should be directed as … Continue reading →

Draft: Against All Enemies: Ethical Resistance

[This is still a bit rough. The beatings will continue.]

Ethical Resistance in a Constitutional Republic

Are we in the grip of domestic enemies of the Constitution? I believe so.  Because I believe so, I have a duty to consider action to defend the Constitution.  Much hinges upon two questions:

  • Am I correct?  and if so,
  • What action is appropriate?

I will attempt to answer both of these in a train of thought I call Ethical Resistance.  More pointedly, I will try to set up a framework for answering these questions rather than answer them specifically, and hope thereby to teach a man to fish, rather than provide fishsticks.

Progressive Republican Trolls

I caught some flak from a nice enough but seriously stupid person for my latest post about the GOP’s malfeasance toward the Tea Party.

I already blocked her (this was all on Facebook) so no direct quotes, but she called me a Progressive troll and hoped I would trot out some more modern cliches next time.  She contended that the term “RINO” is a lefty plant and seemed to think that criticism of the GOP from the right was not possible.  In her universe, the GOP is the sum total of conservatism.

How many more of these empty-headed Rockefeller Republicans are clogging up our party?  As I said, we have a far bigger task ahead of us than it seemed–the Republican Establishment and … Continue reading →

Republicans Risk Third Party

God-Damned Idiots.

I cannot describe how angry I am at the clown-car Republican candidate debates, Chris Christie, Mitt Romney, the punditry, the establishment–yep, pretty much the whole lot of ’em.

I have always been hostile to a third-party gambit; I still am.  But the GOP seems hell-bent to have one.  Ever since the Tea Party behaved magnificently and returned the GOP to power in an historic crushing mid-term defeat of the Communists currently defiling our Capitol, the GOP has been absolutely set on destroying the morale of the organization which restored the spirit of the Republican Party.  Well, it’s not going to work.

If the RINOs insist on sabotaging the work of the Tea Party *to elect Republicans*, they will harm only themselves.  The Tea Party has never … Continue reading →

Little Gramscian Monkeys

Get yourself a cup of coffee. The time has come to speak of LGF.

For those who do not know, Little Green Footballs (LGF) is a forum blog run by Charles Johnson, and which was influential and well-respected in its day.  I enjoyed my time there greatly, but I’ve never been able to get right with what Charles Johnson did to a user named “Dianna”.[1]  She’s one of the nicest people one could hope to befriend online, who did him no harm or even insult. Oh sure, Zombie went over the line at times and God knows BabbaZee lived over the line and only occasionally wandered back on this side of it. But when BabbaZee was right, she was right, and she knew about totalitarian control structures. On the … Continue reading →

GOP Failing Palin/Breitbart Test

I had this as a draft before Palin announced she would not run:

The GOP has been had again, and deserves its fate.  The candidates are now trotting to the tune called by their media betters, with the exception of Gingrich, who will never be President anyway.  Why are they not talking about fourteen trillion dollars in outright debt, or sixty trillion in unfunded liabilities?  Why are they STILL answering the same God-Damned questions about gays (gays), abortion (stem cells, HPV), and guns (death penalty)?

Because they have failed to defend Sarah Palin, and now they are being picked off one by one.  We had a chance to take the narrative and run with it, but instead we are being run behind the media bus.  Trip once, and … Continue reading →

Shame, GOP Surrendering Palin

[pullquote]The MSM is turning on Obama not because they ran out of liberal whitewash.[/pullquote]I’m not buying the MSM’s pivot on Obama.  They may be genuinely upset at his incomprehensible (or dishonest) statements lately, but they are taking him to task not because he is so obviously lying, and not because they ran out of liberal whitewash.  The MSM is turning on Obama because the GOP failed to defend Sarah Palin.

They have always known that Obama is a liar, and they have always been willing to do whatever it takes to support him.  Lie, cheat, steal, kill, throw an election–there’s an argument that each of these has been accomplished on the road to BarryTown.  So their sudden criticism is not squeamishness about what needs to be done–they are fearless about … Continue reading →

Lawrence O'Donnell, Herman Cain, and the White Hippie Apocalypse

[pullquote]blackness is not a scale on which I measure a Presidential candidate[/pullquote]Everybody who cares has seen or heard clips of MSNBC anchor and self-described socialist Lawrence O’Donnell engaging GOP hopeful Herman Cain in a series of racially-motivated attack questions, the point of which seems to be that Herman Cain is not authentically black, didn’t march at Selma, what-have-you.  I’m not going to lecture either of these men on how to be black, as that is of no concern to me; blackness is not a scale on which I measure a Presidential candidate, but integrity is.

[pullquote]the White House calls the Tea Party “terrorists”[/pullquote]First, the media has gone out of its way to promote and euphemize the groups and their lawless, unsanitary goings-on.  The contrast between the tongue-bath for … Continue reading →

This is bad.

POLICY BOARD SHIFT

Defense Secretary Leon E. Panetta this week moved to replace key members of the Defense Policy Board, the advisory group of former officials that serves as a brain trust.

“He made it more ‘Democratic,’” one board member quipped about the changes.

Liberals added to the board include former Clinton administration Secretary of State Madeleine K. Albright, former Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick, retired Marine Corps Gen. James Cartwright and Jane Harman, a former Democratic congresswoman from California. Also added: former Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Gary Roughead.

Most notable among the new members is Ms. Gorelick, who was notorious for erecting the so-called bureaucratic “wall” blocking law enforcement and intelligence agencies from cooperating closely before the Sept. 11 terror attacks. The … Continue reading →
