Sarah Palin needs help with her legal bills

Posted on3 Comments

I received this via e-mail:


Dear Pat,

Time is running out.

Since the first frivolous ethics charges were filed against Sarah Palin two years ago, legal bills for the Palin family have mounted into the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Last year, friends of the family set up the Alaska Fund Trust to help pay legal fees. They used the words “official legal fund” so that supporters would know it was the fund trusted by the Palins.
But now — because Governor Palin used the word “official” —  an independent counsel decided that Sarah Palin “violated” the Alaska Executive Branch Ethics Act when she served as governor of the state.
Funds donated to the Alaska Fund Trust were immediately frozen until the legal challenge was sorted out.
Governor Palin has now agreed to send the money back to the donors. This means that not a single dollar of the trust fund went to pay the Governor’s massive legal fees.
On June 24, 2010 a new legal defense fund — The Sarah Palin Legal Defense Fund — was created to pay these urgent legal bills.
We set up the new fund to cover the Palin’s legal bills for past, present, and future attacks.
The fund has been set up by friends and trusted advisors of Governor Palin.
Let’s help Governor Palin with this incredible burden that no citizen should have to bear and  free her to speak out on behalf of conservatives all across this great country.
Will you help us relieve Governor Palin of this burden?

Pat, as a supporter of Governor Palin, help us with the legal fees stemming from those frivolous charges against Governor Palin.

Yours truly,

Tim Crawford

Now, I will tell you this; I was never really a huge Palin fan. But I thought the gal got a raw deal with the liberal media and from idiots that put this Lady through the mill. I am asking those who actually read this blog to help Palin out. Further more, because of hateful bastards like these twits here, I am asking that you double your support for Palin.

The main reason why I even wanted to get involved with this; is this fact right here:

They called it the Alaska Fund Trust, the “official legal fund” for Governor Palin.

In fact, they added the words “official legal fund” so that supporters would know it was not just approved by the family, but that it complied with disclosure requirements, had professional management, created limits on who could donate and how much could be donated, and a variety of other restrictions that made it a very conservative and limited trust.

Further, the word “official” was used to distinguish the Alaska Fund Trust from other legal defense funds that were starting to pop up and no one knew if these would comply with disclosure laws, lobbyist restrictions, etc.

But now – because she used the word “official” – an independent counsel decided that the Trust “violated” the Alaska Executive Branch Ethics Act and now requires the Trust to send back every single donation raised by the defense fund while she was governor.

The left-wing media wants you to think Gov. Palin is an “ethics violator.” But they ignore the actual findings that Gov. Palin acted in good faith and relied on a team of expert trust lawyers to set it up.

They ignore that Gov. Palin stated one overriding principle: if the trust fund could be lawfully set up, she would support it. That is hardly the action of a person bent on skirting the law, contrary to the hysterical commentaries. But they ignore the truth and prefer to propagate lies about Sarah Palin.

They DON’T want you to know:

  • The National Democratic Committee used its Alaska chapter, the Alaska Democratic Party (ADP), to create a website with one stated goal: “Keep Sarah Palin Out of Public Office.” To this day, the Democrats use this website to publicly seek donations for funding bogus “legal challenges involving issues related to Sarah Palin.”
  • The ADP’s “Keep Sarah Palin Out of Public Office” campaign used our own legal system to sponsor more than two dozen ethics complaints against Governor Palin. Out of the 27 complaints, 26 were dismissed!
  • The so-called “independent counsel” who started this investigation was an attorney from President Barack Obama’s law firm.

The money in the Alaska Fund Trust has been frozen and bills gone unpaid.

You see the part up there, that I put in bold, underlined and colored red? That, my friends, is the reason why I even bothered to post this here. This crusade against Sarah Palin is nothing more than a 21 century lynching against a Conservative Christian Woman.  Admittedly, John McCain’s campaign did do some stuff wrong; at least I feel anyway… — but the bulk of blame goes towards the Democrats, who relentlessly hounded this woman to death and still continues to do so.

Which is just one, in a litany of reasons why I will never vote for anyone representing the Democratic Party, ever again.

Now, I ask you; as a Christian, as someone who believes that the Republican Party does, in fact, embrace the Tea Party values and does want to see a strong, secure America. * I ask you to help Sarah Palin pay down these legal bills, so that she can be free to enjoy the rest of her political and personal career, as she sees fit. Please, do not allow these liberal bastards to bring someone like Palin down or allow them to win the battle. Fight back, with the best weapon possible — your pocketbook. I know times are hard; In fact, I am going through tough times myself. But, all donations, no matter how big or how small will help her out.

Thanks for reading. 🙂

May God Bless Huffington Post for publishing this

Posted on1 Comment

This is a very interesting read:

Much has been said in the Cuban regime’s official media about my son Orlando Zapata Tamayo, a young black man. Many lies have been told, and it has been said that my son was a criminal, and that he was not simply allowed to die. The truth is that my son was murdered. The truth is that my son was allowed to die on a hunger strike he held to demand respect for his rights, and to demand freedom for his people. Today, I would like to tell you just who Orlando Zapata Tamayo was: a defender of human rights, and my beloved son.

via Reina Luisa Tamayo Danger: Zapata Lives!.

This article is a very good read, it is truly hard to believe that Huffington Post would actually publish that on a Liberally biased site. After all, are not Liberal Socialists at least sympathetic to the communist cause?

What saddens me, is that the Huffington Post actually advocates the kind of Government that this woman’s son died under; Big Government. Which is, in fact, socialism, which is, one step away from actual communism.

I think it took courage to post that, considering some of the comments on that posting. Which is not too surprising for that crowd.

One the other hand, Huffington Post did crop a photo of the President of Israel to give him devils horns. Which tells me, not everyone over at Huffington Post shares in the ideals of freedom for everyone; including Israel.

Un-farking-believable

This comes from Bill Quick and with a big hat tip to NiceDoggie.net….

As you know, Christopher Hitchens has been diagnosed with cancer. Well, Pat Archbold over at the National Catholic Register wrote a very nice piece about Hitchens and basically said that he was praying for his recovery. Well, some idiotic religious twit made this comment:

So, someone who has been spewing hatred of our Lord now has esophageal cancer.

I think He is clearly at work here. Let us pray ever more strongly that he repents, that he feels the love that He provides for him for the rest of his earthly life, and that he enters into the promised resurrection of the dead. Perhaps he will even intercede for us.

Oy Vey, where does one start here? This is one of the biggest reasons why I keep Christianity and religion in general at arms length; where it belongs. 😡

Sad News: Christopher Hitchens has cancer

Posted on1 Comment

Awful, just awful:

Christopher Hitchens is being treated for cancer, forcing the D.C. writer to cut short his latest book tour. In a statement released through his publisher Twelve, the British-born provocateur, 61, said that he has “been advised by my physician that I must undergo a course of chemotherapy on my esophagus. This advice seems persuasive to me.” The notorious chainsmoker announced in 2008 he had given up tobacco — driven, he said, by “fear.” (His wife Carol Blue told us then he “wants to live — live to see his political enemies defeated.”) But he was still sneaking a smoke or two when our colleague Manuel Roig-Franzia interviewed him last month.

via Reliable Source – Christopher Hitchens diagnosed with cancer, cuts short his book tour.

AllahPundit Writes:

I’ve never met him — this is as close as I’ve come — but between enjoying his work, supporting many of his positions (on foreign policy, at least), and of course feeling a little atheist kinship, it’s like I’ve known him for years. This is hard news to take.

Indeed. Irregardless of his personal religious beliefs; which are his own damned business. He is fighter against Islamic-Fascism and a stalwart defender of western culture.

God be with him. (I’m sure he will not mind)

Oh Wonderful: The Taliban say no go on negotiations with Nato

Posted on1 Comment

So much for that idea: (H/T iammilitary on twitter)

It comes after US commanders and the British army chief of staff, Gen David Richards, suggested that it might be useful to talk to the Taliban.

The Taliban statement is uncompromising, almost contemptuous.

They believe they are winning the war, and cannot see why they should help Nato by talking to them.

They assume, perhaps wrongly, that the Americans are in disarray after the sacking of the Nato commander Gen Stanley McChrystal last week, and regard any suggestion that they should enter negotiations with them as a sign of Nato’s own weakness.

June, they point out, has seen the highest number of Nato deaths in Afghanistan: 102, an average of more than three a day. — Via BBC News – Taliban rule out negotiations with Nato

You know the sick and sad part? They are winning the war. Because it is quite obvious the the United States does not have a damned clue as to how to fight that war over there. You just do not negotiate with terrorists; you kill them. But that is pretty hard to do; when you have a Government over there that is just corrupt as the Taliban themselves. Our President is not helping that either. Best thing that this Government can do, at this point; is to basically withdraw and protect our own. We had the chance to do, what we want to do now, in 2003 — and we blew it. Thanks George W. Bush; you damned idiot. 😡

Speaking of stupid minorities

There’s this idiot:

Nation of Islam Minister Louis Farrakhan has written the leaders of more than a dozen major U.S. Jewish groups and denominations seeking “repair of my people from the damage” he claims Jews have caused blacks for centuries.

Farrakhan sent the letter along with two books from the Nation of Islam Historical Research Team that the 77-year-old minister said prove “an undeniable record of Jewish Anti-Black behavior,” starting with the slave trade and Jim Crow laws.

“We could charge you with being the most deceitful so-called friend, while your history with us shows you have been our worst enemy,” he wrote.

Farrakhan has long accused Jews of wrongdoing in speeches, but he has rarely addressed Jewish groups so directly in writing.

The Anti-Defamation League, a Jewish civil rights group which distributed copies of the letter, said in a statement Tuesday that Farrakhan’s “anti-Semitism is obsessive, diabolical and unrestrained. He has opened a new chapter in his ministry where scapegoating Jews is not just part of a message, but the message.”

Hmmm, I wonder if he knows about this right here?

Look, I am not a overly Zionist person. I support Israel’s right to exist and such; but I am not overly nutty about it; like some. But this is just straight up Anti-Semitic tripe. If this man were any other nationality; he would have been already removed from the public square. But because he is black, he gets a free pass. Kinda like BreitBart.

Fellow Michigan Blogger Needs Help

Posted on1 Comment

It seems a fellow Blogger from the Detroit Michigan area could use some help….:

I am so screwed friends. I’m so desperate for a job I applied yesterday to be a server in a ribs joint for 2 nights a week. The good news is it was a very short application. The bad news is before I left the woman who took it, asked for my birthday. She made it pretty clear that I’m too old for the job. That’s not even legal of course, but who’s going to sue over a two night job? I didn’t get the good bartending job either. I see the ad is out of the paper.

But that’s not the worst part. I got a letter from the bank. They cut off my credit card. I was depending on that to pay my bills this month. I won’t even be able to afford my medications now, much less buy food. Not that the food is so important. I don’t eat much anyway and I have enough in the cupboards to last a while. Besides I’m so upset I haven’t been to able to eat anyway. I can barely hold down the food. Not to mention the heat is making me sick. I haven’t turned on my AC because I was trying to keep the electric bill down. It averages from 85 to 90 in the apartment and it’s too hot to eat anything but pasta salad. It doesn’t help that I haven’t been able to sleep more than five hours for a week since I was already freaking about the job situation. I wake up in a panic. Sometimes I vomit. I lost five pounds this week.Via – The Impolitic: I am so really screwed

Now some people would want to know why I would even remotely even want to help someone from the other side of political fence. I will answer this:

  1. Politics is one thing and real life is another.
  2. I am in a similar situation myself. If it were not for my parents, I would be in the same spot.
  3. She’s a Lady; a liberal lady, but I digress….  and I am about a sucker for a damsel in distress.

….and for the most important reason:

Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good. — (Romans 12:20-21 KJV)

Further More….:

Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; That ye may be the children of your Father which is in heaven: for he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust. — (Matthew 5:43-45 KJV)

and…..:

But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you. And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not to take thy coat also. Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again. And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise. For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them. And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same. And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again. But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil. — (Luke 6:27-35 KJV)

That is the reason. As much as I have issues with the modern day Church world; and it’s Americanized version of Christianity. I have not forgotten, nor have I abandoned my Christian Faith. Therefore I implore every Christian and Conservative who reads this blog, to open their hearts and their wallets to help this lady out.

If Israel is this stupid, they get what’s coming to them:

Jerusalem (CNN) — Israel plans to ease its blockade of Gaza, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday following an Israeli Security Cabinet meeting, a step welcomed by the United States and Middle East envoy Tony Blair and brushed off by the Palestine Liberation Organization.

“This comes as a partial manner due to international pressure but does not meet the minimal needs of the people in Gaza to live in dignity,” said Hanan Ashrawi, member of the PLO executive committee.

Ashraw said the steps were an improvement but the blockade should be completely lifted and the Israeli occupation ended.

“Israel has decided to enable the flow of all civilian goods into the Gaza strip. From today, there is a green light approval for all goods to enter into Gaza except for military items and materials that can strengthen Hamas’ military machine,” a source in Netanyahu’s office told CNN.

Israel basically just admitted that they are too damn cowardly to stand up to the Arabs and enforce the blockade. My support of Israel just ended.

Stupid bastards… They get what’s coming to them. Won’t stand up for themselves and allow themselves to be bullied by Arab Terrorists. What morons. 🙄

Just like America, easily bullied by Liberals.

Shocking, Well, maybe not….:

“8: The Mormon Proposition,” a documentary detailing the large role the Mormon Church played in passing California’s Proposition 8 in 2008.That ballot initiative added an amendment to the state constitution defining marriage as exclusively between a man and a woman. While the media has naturally been praising the documentary, the movie is so biased that even some reviewers couldn’t avoid pointing out how one-sided it is.

Directed by Reed Cowan, the film first premiered at the Sundance Film Festival. “8: The Mormon Proposition” is narrated by Lance Dustin, who was the screenwriter for “Milk,” the movie about California’s first openly gay elected official.

The trailer features protesters, people upset about the passage of Proposition 8, and paints the Mormon Church negatively for influencing the outcome of Proposition 8.

Cowan has not attempted to hide his bias in the documentary. He stated, “The separation of church and state in the USA is a sacred value. It’s what keeps us from being a theocracy. We are a democracy and should forever stay that way. ‘8: The Mormon Proposition’ is a crucial piece of documentary film making because it puts on record what I believe to be the greatest encroachment into matters of state by a church in American history.”

Mormon Church spokesperson Kim Farah told the Washington Post in January that although she has not seen the film, “judging from the trailer and background material online, it appears that accuracy and truth are rare commodities in this film. Although we have given many interviews on this topic, we had no desire to participate in something so obviously biased.”

via Media Praises ‘8: The Mormon Proposition,’ But Admit Film is One-Sided.

Criticize radical Islam and you’re a hater. Criticize Mormonism or Christianity? Oh, that’s just fine.

What a crazy would we live in. 🙄

You cannot hide your money in Switzerland anymore

Posted on

If you are wealthy, do not try sending your money to Switzerland anymore. The United States Government will come for it:

The Swiss parliament approved a deal Thursday to help the Internal Revenue Service obtain the names of Americans with secret accounts at Switzerland’s largest bank.

The approval averted a renewed conflict between the U.S. and Swiss governments over bank secrecy. If the deal had collapsed, Swiss banking giant UBS faced the threat of potentially crippling U.S. legal action.

Instead, the breakthrough paves the way for the Swiss government to turn over the names and account details of as many as 4,450 U.S. clients of UBS suspected of using undeclared accounts to hide income and evade taxes.

What is the alternative you ask? Simple. Gold and Silver.

Baptist Christian Missionary is in need of help

Posted on1 Comment

I don’t normally post such stuff, but I am a Christian and I am a Baptist. Sometimes there are some things that are bigger than politics.

This news comes via the Victory Baptist Press, which sends me e-mails of various stories of interest:

John Gray, veteran missionary to Papua New Guinea, is still recovering from typhoid and is temporarily in Brisbane, Australia, with his wife, Mary, the daughter of Dr. Don Green of Lansing, Michigan,  who is there for treatments fighting for her life from liver and lung cancer.  Their medical expenses have the Grays in an emergency need. John is in a desparate situation: The way they operate in Australia is that they don’t let the bill get really big.  They expect payment or they discontinue treatments. That’s why this is so important!

From the website of Missionary John Gray:

The following is a synopsis of my battle with my cancer.

Let me take you back to the beginning of this journey….

Our daughter Ilava graduated from the 12th Grade in December, 2005. In the preparations for everything (including my parents coming for the celebration) I did a lot of cleaning. I began to experience pain in my chest and felt it was only a pulled muscle. When the pain persisted, I flew to the city during our April school break. I had a mammogram and a tumour was found in my left breast. It was removed and found to be only fibrocystic.

However, his outlook is to be commended:

Our lives are in God’s hands. He is in total control. His grace and strength have been abundant and constant. We serve an unfailing God. He has met our every need through the lives of others. Especially through the folk of Good Shepherd Baptist Church. He is faithful! Our faith is in His plan for our lives. He is Able!

Now, I know that times are hard, and that everyone is tightening their belts — especially me. But if there is a chance that medicine can save this person. Don’t you think that this man deserves that chance? I do. So, head on over and give a man of God a chance at life.

I always believe that the missionaries of this would are the ones who are actually following the mandate set forth by Christ, which says:

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. (Matthew 28:19-20 KJV)

This man has done that, he has a great reward coming, when his time is due. I am quite sure that he has much more to do here, before his time. So, head on over and make a big donation.

Thank You so much. 🙂


Terri Schiavo’s former Husband proves to the world, just what kind of a tool he really is

Posted on1 Comment

What a tool:

Michael Schiavo - Tool-At-Large

Over 5 years after the very public, tragic and court-ordered execution of Terri Schindler Schiavo, the Schindler family still fights Terri’s husband who sought and secured legal permission to murder his disabled wife by dehydration. Michael Schiavo, Terri’s former husband, accuses Terri’s family of trying to exploit her saga by raising money for the foundation named after her, and the media has been too happy to accommodate his platform and buttress his attacks.

Started while Terri was still alive as Terri’s Fight, the foundation assists other disabled members of our society who may be deprived of their legal rights and medical care. The organization is run by Terri’s mother, Mary Schindler, her brother, Bobby Schindler, who serves as the spokesman for the organization, and Terri's sister, Suzanne Schindler Vitadamo. The Schindler family began the foundation to defray the legal expenses and the costs of providing Terri the rehabilitative treatment and medical care of which Michael barbarically deprived her to thwart her recovery.

Following Terri’s painful involuntary euthanasia death in 2005, the Schindler family changed the name to the Terri Schindler Schiavo Foundation, and the organization has only has raised a modest amount of money, less than 6 figures, to support disabled people like her. Through the foundation, www.TerrisFight.org, Terri’s family has fielded countless calls from Texans due to the draconian Texas Advance Directives Act (Chapter 166.046 of the Health and Safety Code). The foundation has assisted TX Right to Life in our efforts to protect the disabled from the denial and withdrawal of life-sustaining medical treatment.

Michael Schiavo claims that a court document gives him rights to the name Terri Schiavo, and he alleges that no one can use her name without his permission. His attorney has written to the Terri Schindler Schiavo Foundation, instructing Terri’s family to cease and desist using her name. Peculiarly, the man who denied Terri rehabilitative treatment because he wanted the money left for her medical care to himself, is now accusing Terri’s family of profiteering with her name.

via Terri Schiavo’s foundation sued by Michael Schiavo :: :: ProLifeBlogs.

The real kicker is this:

Ironically, Michael attempted to profit politically from Terri’s death, by starting a political action committee, called Terri’s PAC, to oppose “Bible-thumping politicians” who fought to protect her life. Eventually, the FEC closed down his PAC after repeated fines for late reports and violation of reporting guidelines.

Oh Yeah, this dude is a serious tool. I remember this case and it broke my heart to see what this man did to this woman. He was a heartless killer. Now he is proving to the World, just what kind of heartless tool that he really is.

Ann Arbor, Michigan – The Home of Liberal Reverse Discrimination

Posted on

Michigan Never ceases to amaze me, how it continues down the slippery slope of liberalism:

(H/T to Duke Over America Via FTR Radio)

Principal Mike Madison - Segregationist-in-Chief

An Ann Arbor elementary school principal used a letter home to parents tonight to defend a field trip for black students as part of his school’s efforts to close the achievement gap between white and black students.

Dicken Elementary School Principal Mike Madison wrote the letter to parents following several days of controversy at the school after a field trip last week in which black students got to hear a rocket scientist.

“In hindsight, this field trip could have been approached and arranged in a better way,” Madison wrote. “But as I reflect upon the look of excitement, enthusiasm and energy that I saw in these children’s eyes as they stood in the presence of a renowned African American rocket scientist in a very successful position, it gave the kids an opportunity to see this type of achievement is possible for even them.

“It was not a wasted venture for I know one day they might want to aspire to be the first astronaut or scientist standing on the Planet Mars.

“I also think it’s important that you know that I have talked to the children who did not go on the field trip, and I think they have a better understanding of the purpose of the AA Lunch Bunch now, as I hope you do. I’m sorry if any kids were upset by the field trip or my discussion afterwards with them, and I have let them know that.

“The intent of our field trip was not to segregate or exclude students as has been reported, but rather to address the societal issues, roadblocks and challenges that our African American children will face as they pursue a successful academic education here in our community.”

A handful of parents have complained to district administrators about the trip, the group and Madison. More than a half-dozen parents contacted AnnArbor.com to raise the complaints, but none would agree to talk on the record, citing concerns of reprisals to their children by Madison.

[…]

District spokeswoman Liz Margolis said after the trip was over, those who went returned to their fifth-grade class and were greeted by boos by those who didn’t go on the trip. Margolis said Madison, who is black, heard the boos, and went to talk to the class. She said he and the class had a “discussion” about race issues.

“He wasn’t yelling at them. He was very passionate about it,” Margolis said.

Parents have complained he was yelling at the class and belittled a Muslim girl who said she also had experienced racism and discrimination.

On  January 14, 1963 Alabama Governor George Wallace, a Democrat; said the following:

“In the name of the greatest people that have ever trod this earth, I draw the line in the dust and toss the gauntlet before the feet of tyranny, and I say segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever.”

Democrats have not changed that mindset one iota. Except now, the only people being discriminated or segregated are the White people. This whole idiotic idea that we have to “Celebrate Diversity”, basically means “Be ashamed of your White Skin.” It is the mantra and talking point of the far socialist black liberal Democrat Party. It is the mindset of most blacks, especially Liberal Blacks that those evil White Capitalists are out to oppress the Black man; and to atone for that, blacks must be given special privileges and must be given jobs, ahead of the White Man. (like me, for instance…)

That is what I have to deal with here in the great Liberal State of Michigan. It is no wonder that Michigan went to Obama and McCain left early. McCain was no dummy, he knew what he was doing.

Chilling to Watch: Black Students being Brain-Washed into saying, “I am an Obama Scholar”

Jim Hoft says:

Obviously, that separation of church and state rule only applies to Christianity.
Praising their demagogue Obama is OK.

The kids are saying:

For I, am an Obama scholar.
An Obama scholar.
And I will strive to be.
Outstanding. Brilliant.
I will achieve. I will be motivated with a positive attitude.

Bill Hennessey says:

Quick quiz: name five countries, past or present, where the youths were required to chant praises to their omnipotent ruler? Any five. Then add together the number of innocentpeople those regimes slaughtered for political expediency.

P.O.’ed Patriot says:

When I first started watching this video I was impressed with the positive message, that is until the Adult Directed the Students to Chant “I am an Obama Scholar”. That is what we call Brain Washing.

Before all of the Haters leave their Comment remember this, Would it still be OK if the Kids were Chanting “I am a Regan, Bush or Clinton Scholar? …Um No…

Cassy Fiano says:

Indoctrination of children in schools is really nothing new, especially since Obama has been elected. Liberal teachers can’t contain themselves, I guess.

[…]

And what kind of scholar is Barack Obama, exactly? The kind that doesn’t exactly move a mountain of drugs away, that’s for sure — he admitted doing cocaine. He’s the kind of scholar who thought that there were 57 states during the 2008 election. The kind of scholar who can’t understand why we can’t just plug the damn hole to stop an oil spill. The kind of scholar who spends all of his time on the golf course instead of displaying any kind of real leadership.

Oh well. Chanting songs of allegiance to leaders is nothing new, I guess. It’s just new to us ignorant rubes here in the United States who actually love freedom and democracy.

I might be wrong, but, did not Hitler force kids in Germany to chant slogans? Did they also do that in Communist Russia?

I don’t know about you all; but this whole idea of a black liberal President just got a whole bunch more scarier to me. I mean, we have oil gushing out of a busted well in the gulf and they are STILL praising him, like he is some sort of a Messiah!

When will the American people wake and realize that they have been duped? It is beginning to happen; but still you have this sort of nonsense. It is trouble unbelievable.

The 2010 elections and the 2012 elections cannot come soon enough. I just hope and pray that the GOP does not screw it up; like they did in 2008.

Helen Thomas retires after fury over comments about Israel

Posted on

A good ending to a bad story:

Helen Thomas, the longtime White House correspondent made famous for her no-holds-barred questioning of presidents, announced her resignation Monday following controversial remarks she made about Israel.

In a statement from Hearst newspapers, where she works as a columnist, she said she is “retiring, effective immediately.”

Thomas started at the White House as a reporter during the Kennedy administration but became more outspoken in recent years, when she shifted to column writing.

The reaction of most reporters, friends and former White House officials was that while the end to Thomas’s career is sad, it is hardly surprising.

“It really is sadness. She should have retired years ago,” one longtime friend said. “But I don’t think anyone is surprised at the anti-Israeli remarks. She has never made any secret of her animus toward Israel. I just hate to see her remembered for this instead of the pioneering work she did.”

Former White House press secretary Dana Perino said: “It’s a sad but appropriate end.”

Let this be a lesson to any leftest loon, who decides to be journalist. Keep your mouth shut and stick to your job; if you want to keep your job. Antisemitism is not cool, fashionable or any of the other stupid labels that they put on it. It is a sick disease and should not be in the public square.

Somehow or another, I somehow doubt that this was an accident, something tells me, that this woman knew who she was talking to and knew what sort of trouble it would cause. She wanted to retire and was looking for a way out and found it.

In case, you did not notice, I do have a ribbon on my blog now; and yes, I will say it. I do support Israel. The only reservation that I have, is that some of the players in Zionism sometimes resort to race or “Semite-Baiting”, but other than this, I have no issues with Israel and the Jews. America is the prosperous Nation that it is today, because of the relationship that it has with the Nation of Israel. God help this Nation, if we ever got the idiotic idea to abandon Israel or turn against her.

For more about how I feel about this issue. Please click and read this Gospel Tract. It will explain just how I feel about this whole thing. I may have had reservations about Israel in the past. But, that is all different now, I totally understand and believe, that Israel is God’s holy land and he will use it one day. You’ll see. Bush understood it, I understand it, and any Conservative who does not understand it, is not a Conservative and should not be calling themselves one!  Remember this, come 2010 and 2012.

Memorandum has the roundup.
