Why do Conservative Republicans and Christians say stupid stuff like this?

Posted on1 Comment

Today it is a twofer.

First in the Christian Column:

The Story over at the Puffington Post:

Evangelical Christian minister Tim LaHaye says that the policy initiatives put forth by the Obama administration are bringing the country “closer to the apocalypse.”

LaHaye issued the dire warning in an appearance this week on Mike Huckabee’s talk show on Fox News.

“Our present president doesn’t seem to get it,” LaHaye explained. “He doesn’t understand that some of the things he’s introducing that many of us call ‘raw socialism’ — it’s a different name, but it’s essentially government control and government domination of everything.”

The evangelical voice said of the political platform maintained by the Obama administration, “It’s going to work against our country and bringing us closer to the apocalypse.”

Huckabee went on to prod LaHaye a bit further on his assertion. “Are we now living in the end times, from your perspective?” asked the former Arkansas Governor and possible 2012 White House contender.

LaHaye’s response: “Very definitely, governor.”

Tim Lahaye does not know the hour of the coming of Christ, than anyone else. Further more, President Obama is not pushing us closer to the coming of Christ, no more than Bush, Clinton, Bush Sr., Ronald Reagan or Jimmy Carter. This is classic straight up fear-mongering.

A little Bible:

 35Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

 36But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

 37But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. (Matthew 24:35-37, King James Version)

and….

 31Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

 32But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.

 33Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. (Mark 13:31-33, King James Version)

Anyone who says ANYTHING other than this, is blowing smoke up your skirt. period, end of story.

Next, we have this little gem here:

This past Tuesday, Rep. Zach Wamp (R-TN), who is also a leading candidate for the GOP nomination for governor, joined a conference call with the right-wing National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB). When the subject of extending unemployment benefits arose, Wamp complained that giving people unemployment insurance was “creating a culture of dependence which we do not need.” He then said that he wants “people out there scraping and clawing and looking for work and not just sitting back waiting.

Wamp […] said small business, the NFIB and he as governor “must resist… any more mandates to small business to help the unemployed — that we have continued to extend on a federal level, I think, unemployment compensation so long that there’s disincentives for people to actually re-enter the workforce or go out and look for a job.

“And this is creating a culture of dependence which we do not need. We want people out there scraping and clawing and looking for work and not just sitting back waiting. And so we’ve got to not allow any more mandates.”

Oy. Talk about done deaf. Before anyone hollers at me about the source of this story here; please, save it. I am not some sort of partisan hack. I believe the stupidity is stupidity. No matter who is reporting it.

Open Message to Governor Tim Pawlenty: Please, Run in 2012

Posted on2 Comments

Man, I love this: (H/T HotAir)

Some of the commentators over at HotAir are saying that T-Paw does not have the “it” factor or that he’s not Sarah Palin. To that I say, thank God he is not all of those things. I want someone that will actually will lead this Country; not some washed up broad, who thinks she is entitled to be President, because she is a woman. (Hello Hillary!) Not someone who’s thinks he is entitled to be President, because he is some sort of a Millionaire or on some sort of Mormon Mission. (Hello Mittens!)

So, to Governor Tim Pawlenty: In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, In the Name of the United States of America; the greatest Country on Earth: Please, Run for President of the United States! I will Blog for you, I will work on your campaign. Anything! You name it. We need someone who will actually lead! Without the rock-star stupidity.

We need someone like Governor Tim Pawlenty, and we need him now. Please, Tim, Run.

Living proof that liberals are classless assholes

Posted on1 Comment

Remember how the liberal left told everyone that the Afghan War was the good war and the Iran War was the evil war?

Well, they lied.

Wikileaks, which is owned by a flaming liberal. Basically exposed our soldiers in the afghan theater.

CBS News reports:

Hundreds of Afghan civilians who worked as informants for the U.S. military have been put at risk by WikiLeaks’ publication of more than 90,000 classified intelligence reports which name and in many cases locate the individuals, The Times newspaper reported Wednesday.

The article says, in spite of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange’s claim that sensitive information had been removed from the leaked documents, that reporters scanning the reports for just a couple hours found hundreds of Afghan names mentioned as aiding the U.S.-led war effort.

One specific example cited by the paper is a report on an interview conducted by military officers of a potential Taliban defector. The militant is named, along with his father and the village in which they live.

“The leaks certainly have put in real risk and danger the lives and integrity of many Afghans,” a senior official at the Afghan foreign ministry told The Times on condition of anonymity. “The U.S. is both morally and legally responsible for any harm that the leaks might cause to the individuals, particularly those who have been named. It will further limit the U.S./international access to the uncensored views of Afghans.”

If this does not piss you off; check your pulse.

Ed Morrissey says:

What will this mean for the war effort?  The US will probably have to move all of the people named in the documents and their families, which means they won’t be able to continue in their current efforts.  After this exposure, we’ll have a lot of trouble finding anyone else who wants to work with us on the ground in Afghanistan, which makes our efforts there a hell of a lot more complicated, and will probably result in more dead Americans as well as Afghans.

You know, I have said some pretty “Over the top” stuff on this blog; and I have taken a bit of crap for it. Well, you know what? Screw it. I just do not care. When it comes to our troops in Iraq and the Afghan Theater, any and all crap that I get from the left for sticking up for them, is absolutely worth every minute of it.  Having said all that; here is hoping the someone puts a nice bullet into the skull of this jerk off piece of crap. There’s no excuse for this sort of bullshit, this guy is just a morbid asshole, who seems to believe that he is on some sort of mission from God to stop the war. Well, if he’s that intent on stopping this war, then it is time for HIM to go see God. The quicker the damned better. We are in the Afghan theater; because a group of Religious throwbacks decided that they wanted a War with the United States. We gave them that war and now this communist piece of shit decides that the war should stop and is going out of his way harm our people. So, forget arresting him, forget hunting him down, save the justice system some money and put a bounty on his head and kill the god damned bastard.

There, I said it and if anyone wants to give me any shit; feel free. I’d like nothing more than for some liberal retard try an explain why they support terrorism to Adsense or anyone else that they want to try and get me pulled from.

Al Qaeda’s second in command Ayman Al-Zawahiri threatens more attacks on U.S. Soil

Posted on1 Comment

As much as I hate to sound like a partisan on this subject; I feel the need to write this:

Al Qaeda’s second in command Ayman Al-Zawahiri has surfaced again, this time threatening more attacks against the U.S. and the West.

“Oh American people…We offered you a peace plan, and mutual benefit; but your governments were proud and haughty, and so the attacks against you followed one after another, everywhere – from Indonesia to Times Square, by way of Madrid and London. And the attacks are ongoing, and more will come one after another,” said Zawahiri, according to a transcript provided by the Middle East Media Research Institute, based in Washington, DC.

Zawahiri also continued his promise of near victory in Iraq and Afghanistan, among other issues.

Former White House national security official Richard Clarke, now an ABC News consultant, said that up until this point, there haven’t been any correlations between Zawahiri’s past threats and any attacks actually occurring.

“U.S. government and counterterrorism officials are not going to increase their alert based on Zawahiri’s statement, because of his previous track record,” Clarke said. “But they’re on relatively high alert already because of the increase in homegrown terrorist threats related to al Qaeda.”

The 47-minute audio message, a eulogy for Mustafa Abu Al-Yazid, was posted on jihadist websites July 27 by al Qaeda’s media arm Al-Sahab.

via Al Qaeda Message: Ayman Zawahiri Threatens US Attacks – ABC News.

Does it not strike anyone else as extremely ironic, that the United States of America, with all of it’s vast capabilities of spying, with all of it’s military might, with all of it’s ability to track down and hunt people who are operating outside of law; cannot tract down a couple of religious throwbacks that are intent on destroying America? Now, if I were some sort of partisan idiot; I would say something very stupid like, “Obama does not want these guys caught, because he is some sort of a undercover Muslim.” But I am not, so, no, I am not going to say this; because quite frankly, that sort of statement for one, is hateful and racist as hell, and two, is out of touch with reality.

What I will say this; this is a perfect example of that the fact that big Government just does not work. The Presidents, past and present, continue to throw money at our Military and intelligence services; but yet they cannot catch these idiots?  Does anyone else, besides me, find this to be incredibility ironic? I mean, if someone like me, got behind on my taxes, the United States Government would have no trouble whatsoever tracking me down and find me. But these religious throwbacks cannot be found. I do not believe in conspiracy theories at all. But I believe this points to a systematic failure of our Government on the highest of levels; which reaffirms my personal belief that big Government is a bad idea and that it simply does not work.

You just did the same thing.  You are speculating about what could be wrong with him and making wild accusations but offering no proof whatsoever.  Don’t be such a hypocrite
If he is stark raving mad, then what are you when you use the same tactics?

First:

Second of all:

This is my damn blog and I will write about what I please; and if you really do not like it. You do not have to read here. There is not any law that says you have to.

Third of all:

The Mental Case - Andrew Sullivan

I am calling Andrew Sullivan crazy, because that is what he is…. damned crazy.The man calls himself a so-called “Conservative” all the while trashing a woman who is a Conservative Christian. This was not just one posting, but a entire books worth of pure crap. The man is crazy, and anyone who is worth their salt in Conservatism knows it. He is not a Conservative; but rather a Liberal posing as a Conservative. Some say he is a British Conservative; But I think it’s more of a mental problem than anything else.

Also, Hypocrisy? Hypocrisy??!?!?!? How’s this for Hypocrisy? — All during the election, the media went over Sarah Palin, her kids, her family; everything… with a fine tooth comb. But no ONE person in the lame stream media would dare say a cross word about President Barack Obama’s snooty-nosed brat kids, at all. Hell, even Chelsea Clinton was giving rougher treatment by the media, than President Obama’s kids! That is what I call hypocrisy!

So, don’t come here and leave stupid comments about me being a damned hypocrite, because I will just delete them. You want to be a cheerleader for the mentally and yes, morally depraved pieces human excrement’s like Andrew Sullivan, fine. Start your own damned blog and do so. Because it is not going to happen here; period.

Sickening: Video shows local deputy ranting against Christians

Posted on2 Comments

The Video:

Greg Hengler over at Townhall says:

Substitute these Christians with Mexican protesters and replace the anti-Christian opinions from the Sheriff’s Deputy with anti-Mexican ones. Would you not see this clip run for the umpteenth time on MSNBC and CNN today? I repeat the sentiments of our Commander in Chief: “The police acted stupidly.

The Story via KRQE-TV:

ALBUQUERQUE (KRQE) – A Bernalillo County Sheriff’s deputy was caught on video erupting with personal comments while escorting a religious group away from a recent concert.

BCSO Deputy Jim Goff is a veteran of the department and years away from retirement.

The religious group was protesting outside a Rob Zombie concert on July 17th at the Pavilion. Deputies were called to escort them out. Goff was among them.

The religious group recorded the entire ordeal and put it on YouTube. It started with Goff asking the protestors to leave the property but the group was not taking the orders well.

“This is private property, leave you can go or you can go to jail,” Goff said.

“It’s against my constitutional right, these people are free right here are fee to be out here? Why cant we,” said one protestor.

That’s when Goff got the crowd involved and asked what they wanted the group to do.

“You guys, do you want them to stay or go,” Goff said.

The protestors eventually started to leave as they continued preaching to the crowd and the deputies. Goff responded.

“There is only one way to heaven and that’s through Jesus Christ the Lord,” said a protestor.

“I am a non-believer, there is no God, there is no Jesus, there is no Satan,” Goff said.

Through all the shouting, arguing and antagonizing the other deputies kept their cool. Goff, however, had one more questionable comment.

“You must have a crush on me, man are you like a gay homosexual, you keep filming me,” Goff said.

The attacks against Christians and on the first amendment in the United States of America continue under the Obama Administration. Further proof that we are truly in the last days. Remember that folks. Remember that also come 2010 and 2012 and vote accordingly.

But, of course:

Sheriff Manny Gonzales called the deputy’s comments very inappropriate.

“I watched the video and it’s an edited version. We’re going to make a request from our internal affairs unit to get a full, a full copy so we can make the right responses,” Gonzales said.

The video is on at least three different websites including YouTube, where more than 7,000 viewers have already seen it.

Gonzales said he will not comment on if Goff will be reprimanded until they conduct a complete investigation.

The sheriff also said he did not know about the concert confrontation until News 13 called and asked about it.

In other words, he will be back to work today and nothing will happen. 😡
