No wonder Penn loves Chavez so much…Penn is a dictator wannabe.
None of this surprises me:
The other professors hated him because he was lazy, unqualified, never attended any of the faculty meetings, and it was clear that the position was nothing more than a political stepping stool. According to my professor friend, he had the lowest intellectual capacity in the building. He also doubted whether he was legitimately an editor on the Harvard Law Review, because if he was, he would be the first and only editor of an Ivy League law review to never be published while in school (publication is or was a requirement).
Can I get an amen?
The notion that citizens have no good reason to be armed, because the State can protect them from violent crime, is one of the most dangerous lies Big Government has fed its subjects. The government reduces crime through the police and court systems, but no matter how tirelessly the police work, there is very little chance they can actively defend you from assault. There aren’t enough of them, and there never could be. The very areas of privacy that allow us to relax with our friends and families will always be soft targets for criminals… unless we fortify them ourselves. The police arrived at my house several minutes too late to play a role in my attempted execution. They made excellent time – there happened to be a unit in the area. If things had gone a little different, they might have arrived just in time to avenge me.
Citizen access to firearms has reduced crime rates time and again, but this is more than a matter of practicality. It’s a question of principle. The people of an orderly nation surrender the business of vengeance to the government, replacing it with the rule of law. They cannot be expected to surrender the right of defense. The right to protect yourself, and your family, from injury and death is an essential part of your dignity as a free man or woman. Without the First Amendment, you are a slave. Without the Second, you are a child.
Excerpt:
What’s the surest thing to follow adolescent, blind love?
Disillusionment. Obama followers, who genuinely believed what the media told them, now are experiencing massive disillusionment. Where’s all that hope and change from the god who would be president?
The law is still the law; nothing there changed. The repo man can still take your house and your car and your furniture if you don’t pay as you said you would. Did the seas recede? Well, the deceived people are finding out that “climate change” was a lie, too — contrived by greedy politicians, fraudulent scientists and, once again, media elites. Did everyone get their jobs back? Not even close. More lost their jobs. Did the world start loving America? Not even close there, either. The world is more volatile and enemies are more empowered. The threats just keep coming no matter how many bows and suck-up speeches Barack Obama gives.
Excerpts:
Simply put, Obamacare takes a long and detailed look at the current state of American health care and identifies those areas in which it is not yet fucked-up and closes all those unfucked-up loopholes in only 2,000 pages. Given the problem of having to fuck up still functioning elements of the health care system in all 50 states, Obamacare is a masterpiece of concision.
Do you have only catastrophic health insurance that kicks in with enough money to keep you from going bankrupt if you get a life threatening disease? What are you? Selfish enough to want to keep on living when a disease says you need to just die? Selfishness on your part when millions of Obama supporters need freed medical marijuana to enhance their sex lives is just fucked up. Obamacare, by removing any chance you might have for surviving, will see that you are fucked up for good.
Getting free Medicare when you’re too old to work and pay taxes at a rate well into the 60% range. That’s fucked. Obamacare will see too it that this unproductive loophole in the current program will get closed pronto and, well, fuck you just die.
These two ridiculous yammering dingbats make me think that maybe the 19th Amendment wasn’t such a good idea after all.
The critics of the ad did nothing but reveal their own moral poverty:
…it seems to me that what most threatened the hordes of transcultural cretins in their hatefest was the simple decency of the ad and the two people in it…Those that cannot see this for what it really is are seeing instead some dead darkness they’ve allowed to dwell inside them.
Update: Case in point.
Excerpts:
The middle class is a vast group in a capitalist society, which is one of the things collectivists really hate about capitalism. Its upper reaches include the entrepreneurs and small business owners that bring economic vitality. Virtually every aspect of Obama’s agenda is designed to injure or burden small businessmen, and this is no accident. Despite their angry rhetoric about giant corporations, leftists have little trouble controlling them. They often do business directly with the government, as vendors… and, through lobbyists, as customers. They generally employ members of labor unions, which serve as a de facto arm of Big Government, injecting the agenda of the State directly into the corporate bloodstream. It’s the small business owners and self-employed, along with those who aspire to join their ranks, who are the most difficult to control, and the most likely to muster effective electoral resistance to the statist agenda. The middle class is filled with people who pay attention to the second page of their paycheck stubs.
The frustration of the middle class is the angry confusion of people who can appreciate the opportunities Big Government denies them. It is the anxiety of those who hear the businesses who employ them relentlessly demonized, while the ruling class is never held responsible for its foolishness, waste, and theft. It is the resentment of people who suffer through disasters that President Obama and his allies regard as opportunities. It’s the hearty distrust of a State, and its media apparatus, that declares every frigid blast of bad economic news to be “unexpected” – but expects us to believe it can predict market fluctuations, technological advances, and even the global climate.
Amen to this:
What’s hilarious to us is how many of these 20-35 year old Republican guys are so wildly homophobic, always quick to make gay jokes and put people like us down. They’re pretty quick on the misogyny too, to be honest, though nowhere NEAR as fast as the Left. And yet, here we stand, a clear example of a bunch of fags (to us their own term for us), who wake up every day ready, willing, and able to kick ass while the best these guys can muster is posting over and over again on Redstate and Ace of Spades “If we can only come close”, “If we can only almost win, but be so half-assed about things that we come in second”.
From our time with the Young Republicans here in Chicago, we can assure you this is totally a male phenomenon too. It is not Republican women who are like this. The women know how to FIGHT. Every canvassing trip we made during the 2008 race for Palin and McCain was 85% women, because the women actually got out and did the hard stuff, the phone-banking, the donating, the pounding the concrete to drum up votes. It was gay Hillary Dems like us, female PUMAs, female Republicans fighting to save their country from socialism, and one or two 20-35 guys in their khakis and blazers who only showed up to get on TV and further their careers by getting as much airtime as possible (never, ever wanting to do any heavy lifting).
The young men in the Republican party are glory hounds, prima donnas, and Eeyores: all they seem to want to do is enter a weird collectively group therapy on message boards talking about losing races that could be won if they only just got off their little butts and DID SOMETHING productive. Planning on attending the next Young Republican cocktail hour or VIP reception to get their pictures taken with Tim Pawlenty or Aaron Schock is not doing something productive. Logging onto Redstate to bitch and moan about “how impossible it is to win in Massachusetts” is not only not productive, but it’s asinine, considering these are the same punk-ass bitches who constantly go on and on about how Mitt Romney is the ideal 2012 candidate (because he’s so dreamy, maybe), when ROMNEY WON IN MASSACHUSETTS. It’s not impossible for a Republican to win in a state with more Independents than Democrats. No matter what Democrats try to tell you.
Guys at Hillbuzz, this Christian so-con will stand with you anytime.
This is excellent. Some excerpts:
The odd thing about Smart People is that they all seem to know who they are. They recognize each other, instinctively. Actually, usually even non-Smart People (like me) can recognize them. The odder thing about the Smart People faction is that objectively they’re not always all that smart (although certainly some of them are), and there are some very smart people who don’t belong to it.
Barack Obama, for example, has obviously been crowned a Smart Person virtually from the moment he entered the national scene. Now, there is zero (0) evidence i can see that Barack Obama is all that smart, at least not any more so than tens of millions of other folks. But he is definitely a Smart Person. Even I can see that. Just look at how he…um…talks in soft tones while wearing a suit, raising his eyebrows in concerned ways, and being skinny (?). Well okay, it’s not clear how or why I or anyone else knows or thinks that he’s Smart, what is clear is that we just do.
This leads naturally to discussion of another Smart People obsession, which is that they can’t stand Dumb People. Nothing offends a Smart Person more than a Dumb Person being in any sort of position of power, prominence, happiness, comfort, or respect. The Smart Person nation went on an eight-year hissy fit about how Dumb George W. Bush was. Books were written about it, plays were performed about it, double albums were released about it, benefit concerts were given about it, people launched into deep depressions about it. There are probably at least some Smart People who expended 90% of their waking moments from 2000-08 having little more than variations and permutations of the single thought ‘George W. Bush is Dumb’ in their head. (And isn’t that oh so Smart to be fixated on that single idea for eight years? Sure seems Smart to me.)
And of course, this Dumbness obsession has recently been fully transferred to Sarah Palin. Indeed an accurate test for whether you’re in the presence of a Smart Person is to say the word “Palin”, step back, and see what happens. If that person says something normal like “Huh?”, “You mean Sarah Palin?”, or “What about her?”, that person may be normal or even Dumb. But if the person throws a hissy fit and starts talking about how Dumb Sarah Palin is, you know then and there that you’re talking to a Very Smart Person.
Climate Change also illustrates the Smart Peoples’ fondness for arguing in favor of the autocratic, near-dictatorial control over everyone elses’ lives (of Smart People). To a Smart Person, the concept that there can or should be limits on the sorts of things that Smart People in power should be able to do, regulate, decide, and dictate, would make no sense. Smart People are annoyed by the Constitution, for example (if they even think about it at all). Mention the Constitution to a Smart Person, suggest that it restricts government power to do this or that, and you’ll get blank stares (if they don’t just start talking about how Dumb you are for saying it). Sure, they’ll agree that the Constitution restricts the power of Dumb people in government, like George W. Bush, but we’ve got a Smart government now – so what’s the Constitution got to do with anything? They’ve got Smart stuff to do, like nationalize health care, bypass Congress to sign climate treaties, and set up international taxation so Americans’ money can be taken from them and sent overseas. All of that is very Smart stuff to do. What’s the Constitution got to do with any of it?
Another day, another incompetent dumbass. Like Ace says: “They are going to kill us.”
Islam is not conducive to healthy, functional families:
Arab and Muslim sons desperately want their fathers. But their fathers are busy marrying other, younger wives, having other, newer children, and founding financial empires. They want their fathers to redeem them from the shameful fate of living in a world of mainly women–which they do when they are very young; and of course, they want their fathers for reasons of identity and inheritance.
If Arab Muslims truly want to change the culture in which terrorism flourishes and which includes the master handlers and manipulators (Nancy Kobrin and I call them “serial killers by proxy”), the sexually repressed and permanently “shamed” young men, the permanently endangered women, and the homicide-and-hate preachers—that culture will have to undergo a revolution as far as women are concerned.
Think about what that revolution might look like. Polygamy; forced, arranged child marriage; purdah; forced veiling; female illiteracy; female genital mutilation; female sexual slavery; gender segregation; sexual repression/obsession; in short, everything that characterizes Islamic gender apartheid would have to go.
As would Islamic religious apartheid.
This reminds me of the unserious banter and “shout outs” before addressing the Fort Hood terrorist attack. (Not to mention the denial that it was terrorism at all.)
Depressing, but true:
Everything that is bad for America is good for Obama and the Democrats. They know it and what’s more, they’ve planned for it. They have, at last count, the money, the power, high-ground position, the media, the academy, and the Big Lie all working for them.
To take just one example of bad things that are good for the Obama gang, unemployment.
Unemployment continues and deepens? Excellent. Just extend and expand the benefits via this or the next stimulus. Unemployed people on the dole are dependent people. Dependent people that are dependent on you vote for you. Always.
Conservatives may say that people want the “dignity” of work, but that only works when there’s dignified work to be had. In case you haven’t noticed, dignity is in short supply around here in the culture and in the workplace. Dignity lies in the making of things, not the servicing of the customer.
Jobs in the service sector don’t usually come with dignity attached. Delivering a pizza or talking into a headset at a drive-through doesn’t have the same pay or pride attached as working on a line making Thunderbirds. Lots of jobs with dignity have either been off-shored or handed over to illegals for years now. Unlikely to return.
Instead what we have now is the unrelenting expansion of the dole from the previously hard-core unemployable and indigent to a much wider swath of social layabouts. Unemployment is easily transmuted into disemployment and as long as you manage expectations and provide enough for drugs and television you can carry an indigent class for decades and count on it’s votes to carry you in office for even longer.
Proof of what we skeptics have suspected all along. This is not about so-called climate change or “saving the planet”. This is about promoting socialism and killing capitalism. It is also about petty left-wing dictators and their jealousy and hatred of America.
