Halloween PC Police

Here's some tips on how not to get the PC police on your case this Halloween.

Harris-Perry, husband in IRS Dog House

Seems liberals ain't so keen on coughin' up the dough for the masses if it's theirs.

IRS files $70K tax lien against Harris-Perry, husband

The Internal Revenue Service has placed a tax lien on Melissa Harris-Perry and her husband, James Perry, for about $70,000 in delinquent taxes, according to a notice filed in Forsyth County Hall of Justice earlier this month.
Harris-Perry is a well-known host of an MSNBC talk show and a professor at Wake Forest University. The IRS filed the notice April 6.
In an email Wednesday, Harris-Perry said she was unaware of the tax lien but knew about the debt. She said she and her husband paid $21,721 of the debt when they filed their taxes Wednesday. The remaining debt, $48,581, covers a tax period ending Dec. 31, 2013, according to the notice.
Harris-Perry said she and her husband had been working to pay off the debt but had to deal with a series of personal crises that caused the couple to pay off the debt a lot slower than expected.
“We were aware that we would continue to need to work to pay off the 2013 debt,” she said in the email.~snip~

The IRS hounded me unmercifully for $600.00, I hope they inflict real pain on this pompous windbag.

"Historic First" is not enough this time

Now that America has indulged itself with with a "historic first" by electing the first non-white president is it time to for a twofer?

We've had almost two terms of essentially an none vetted community organizer who didn't have to prove that he was qualified to be the countries chief executive based on the fact that he was "the first" ever.
We've been paying the price ever since.


Hilary Clinton has a well publicized history that anyone can read about in spite of the Clinton's best efforts to sanitize it.

 Oh Hill no! Clinton’s stale presidential plan wrong for nation

All things being equal that history should be enough to make her campaign almost impossible but with the mainstream media being owned and beholden to the democrat party most of Hillary Clinton's short comings will be ignored in favor of their reporting that we have a chance at another "historic first".
Lets hope this time we can look past the rhetoric of the liberal media.

Government vs. Us

As if we don't have enough examples of the Obama administration and their liberal/commie infiltrators contempt for the citizens of this country.

VA manager’s email mocks veteran suicides

A manager at the Roudebush Veteran Affairs Medical Center in Indianapolis appears to mock the mental health problems of returning combat veterans in an email to her employees. 

The email obtained by The Indianapolis Star contains photographs of a toy Christmas elf posing as a patient in what appears to be the hospital’s transitional clinic for returning veterans. In one photograph, the elf pleads for Xanax. In another, he hangs himself with an electrical cord. 

The woman who sent the email is Robin Paul, a licensed social worker who manages the hospital’s Seamless Transition Integrated Care Clinic. The clinic provides returning veterans with transition assistance, including mental health and readjustment services. 

When initially asked about the email, Paul responded, “Oh my goodness.” She then referred a reporter to the hospital’s public affairs department, which emailed The Star a statement on her behalf.~snip~

Everybody seems to think that when Obama's time is up in office we'll be able to get back on track as a country but the truth is that the same civil servants who feel entitled to collect a paycheck from us while turning up their nose will still be there.

Lois Lerner is not an aberration but the rule in the union controlled agencies that we pay for.
If the next administration really wants to improve government then they will purge the government unions and make clear to government employees that they work for the citizens of this country and not the democrat party.

Why Nerds Deserve an Apology

You know one would think that with the success of "The Big Bang Theory" the image of "nerds" would be rehabilitated into something people would like to aspire to.
But then you have these kinds of clueless members of the fifth estate co-opting the term to try and makes themselves seem smarter than they really are.

Enter Melissa Harris-Perry, who popularized tampon earrings, asking Eric Holder in an interview to quack like a duck.
These are the kind s of questions that the self styled nerds at MSNBC think is worthy of asking the most divisive AG ever.
Real nerds don't deserve this.

Why Democrats Really Lost the South

The staggering lack of self awareness that liberal/democrat progressives have is almost comical.
That's the only thing I could think about as I read this article by some historically clueless hack at The Daily Beast who is totally butt hurt by the trouncing that the dems suffered in the south.

Dems, It’s Time to Dump Dixie

I guess it doesn't occur to him that he's a little late because Dixie pretty much dumped the democrats.

It's kind of funny because the democrat party held the south for decades because liberal/democrat/progressives were racist. At least that is who they pandered to during the 60's and 70's to hold power in the south.
As long as southern constituents bought into the segregationist policies of Orval Faubus (D) and George Wallace (D) the democrats had no problem with racism as long as they could hold power in the south.

As much as the democrats deny it in this century the south has moved away from the racism that is  encouraged by the democrats and have started to move beyond the racism of liberals seeing them for the party of division that they really are.

The democrat parties only platform anymore seems to be constantly trying to divide everyone by race,sex,sexual preferences and income and people all across the nation, including the south, are getting wise to their tactics and rejecting the party of division.

So go right ahead progressives and dump everyone who's gotten wise to your politics of division.

When We All Become Criminals

The whole Eric Gardner episode is an illustration of the heavy handedness of political power, Somehow we have gotten away from the idea that in a truly free society government interferes in the life of its citizens as little as possible thereby creating a situation where just about anyone can be arrested.

Law Puts Us All in Same Danger as Eric Garner

On the opening day of law school, I always counsel my first-year students never to support a law they are not willing to kill to enforce. Usually they greet this advice with something between skepticism and puzzlement, until I remind them that the police go armed to enforce the will of the state, and if you resist, they might kill you.
I wish this caution were only theoretical. It isn’t. Whatever your view on the refusal of a New York City grand jury to indict the police officer whose chokehold apparently led to the death of Eric Garner, it’s useful to remember the crime that Garner is alleged to have committed: He was selling individual cigarettes, or loosies, in violation of New York law.
The obvious racial dynamics of the case -- the police officer, Daniel Pantaleo, is white; Garner was black -- have sparked understandable outrage. But, at least among libertarians, so has the law that was being enforced. Wrote Nick Gillespie in the Daily Beast, “Clearly something has gone horribly wrong when a man lies dead after being confronted for selling cigarettes to willing buyers.” Republican Senator Rand Paul of Kentucky, appearing on MSNBC, also blamed the statute: “Some politician put a tax of $5.85 on a pack of cigarettes, so they’ve driven cigarettes underground by making them so expensive.”~snip~

The reality is that this actually goes way beyond cigarettes and black markets, what it's really about is just how much are we going to allow government to criminalize our activities.
For instance people should wear a seat belt because it's a good idea but a lot of states have mandatory seat belt laws that impose a fine if you or your passengers are caught not wearing one.
While not an arrest-able offense ignoring or not paying the fine is.
Warrants are issued for over due fines all the time and if you are confronted by a police officer then you are subject to arrest...by force if necessary. The reality is that government really requires you to wear a seat belt and if you don't pay a fine then they will potentially use force.
Is that an appropriate use of force by police? Over not wearing a seat belt?
Because that is really what instigated a potentially violent arrest.
Cigarettes or seat belts the question is do we really want to put citizens and police in these kinds of situations?
If they are it's not the cops fault but the politicians who pass ill considered laws in order to pander to specific groups.

Then there's the tyranny of the government using laws and regulations to target groups and individuals due to their political beliefs. Like the IRS did to conservative groups.
I've had the IRS pursue me for owing around $600.00, I'm politically conservative. Al Sharpton, liberal/democrat/race pimp, owes 4 million dollars and as far as I know still owes.

As Ann Coulter said, do not stand between a liberal and his taxes" that was Eric Gardner's mistake and the truth is it could happen to anyone.

Liberals Always out to Shoot the Messenger

So what are campus police police supposed to do?

Colleges struggle with protecting students without being accused of victim-blaming

Don’t drink so much. "Stop victim-blaming."
Watch your drink. "Stop victim-blaming."
Walk in well-lit areas at night. "Stop victim-blaming."
If colleges cannot suggest basic common sense measures to protect students — which help guard against crimes that aren’t rape and help men as well — without being accused by the feminist chorus of blaming victims, what can they say?
“It's a tough line to tread because the blame should still be on the perpetrator, but you also want to protect these people,” Larkin Sayre, a sophomore at Massachusetts Institute of Technology told NPR.
Suggesting women don’t drink so much or don’t wear short skirts feels wrong, Sayre said, because being able to wear what one wants is “a basic human right” and “we don't tell men to not get blackout drunk.”
If there are people who aren’t telling men not to get blackout drunk then that definitely needs to change. No one should be getting blackout drunk, not just because of what crimes one could commit or have committed upon them, but for health reasons as well.
University of Wisconsin police spokesman Marc Lovicott argued that doing whatever it takes to protect students is more important than being politically correct.
“Man, it just seems like we live in such a politically correct society these days, and everybody's watching the words they use and they should be, I mean, to a certain extent,” Lovicott said. “But when it comes to crime prevention, we're not gonna stop.”
UW was under fire for its supposed victim-blaming crime prevention tips, which it has since updated.~snip~

There's just something wrong with the concept of condemning crime prevention by denouncing it as "victim blaming".
Saying that "men shouldn't rape" is a kind of a no shit Sherlock statement. But until saying that actually works then warning women how not to become victims seems like a pretty prudent thing to do.
I can't believe that this has become some kind of controversial thing.
Which brings up the fact that liberal objections to trying to warn women is more about an agenda than it is about them giving a damn about the victims.

Americas Nightmare Continues

This is so bad that all I'm going to do is provide the link.

TOP TEN BUTT UGLY LIBERALS

It's the opposite of click bait but I feel that it is necessary....you know like a public service.

Old Bigots vs Young Bigots

I ran across this story today on my Facebook timeline.

Cashier tells mom she should have aborted her Down syndrome son, mom’s response is legendary

A mom who we only know by her blogger name Sherry wrote about how she was out with her son who has Down syndrome and a cashier implies she should have had an abortion.
Sherry has a two-year-old son named Gave whom she loves dearly, so when someone says something so horrible it’s almost hard to know how to respond. I thought Sherry handled herself with class while getting a very important message across.~snip~

It got me thinking some, I mean I can't ever think of a time when someone would try and shame someone for the choice of having a disabled child. I mean in the considerable number of decades I've spent on the earth I've heard people say some hurtful things about the disabled.
But it was never out of malice as much as it was ignorance.
But it kind of seems that there is a particular disdain for children with downs syndrome. Mostly because there is a test for it and a lot of people automatically assume that if their baby tested positive in the womb then obviously it should have been aborted.
That is the belief of the pro-abortion crowd.
Eugenics is alive and well with the liberal baby killing crowd, in their minds there's no better way to improve the human condition than to eliminate the defective in the womb.
There are places in the world where testing as female will get the same procedure...but I digress.

A few days ago I read a comment someone made at another site, I don't have the link....I wish I did.
But the comment went something like this:

How do we know abortion is still legal?
Because we still haven't found a "gay" gene.

So consider a mother in a grocery store with her obviously homosexual son or daughter being asked by a cashier whether she was aware that they could test for homosexuality and she could have had the option to abort?
But of course I'm just an old bigot and not as good or as wise as a young bigot.

Four Days late and a few Sound Bites Short

CBS finally reports on Johnathan Gruber's admission that Obamacare was passed by with holding information from voters.
Of course they left out the "stupid voter" comment because leftist elites (like the boobs that run CBS) agree with that sentiment.
Face it, the only reason they finally covered it is because it's becoming a bigger story than they can ignore.
Is it any wonder that Obama wants to move to regulate the internet?

Bill Maher and Flying Pigs

Apparently I can't see the flying pigs because it's pretty cloudy here today
I think it's fairly obvious that Bill Maher is miles away from having a religious epiphany but he definitely draws the line between Christianity and Islam that most liberals can't see through their rainbow colored glasses.
    

What liberals ignore 'about the children' and immigration

When it comes to the flood of illegal immigrant children coming across the border and overwhelming the agencies trying to help them there is an abundance of hand wringing and demands for compassion.
 There's not a lot of that when it comes to the rising death toll that occurs when people who are ill equipped or weakened by disease expire in the heat of the desert.

BAYLOR PROFESSOR IDENTIFIES BODIES OF ILLEGALS WHO DIE CROSSING BORDER

For the last two years, Professor Lori Baker of Baylor University has been lending her expertise to helping identify the bodies of those who tried and failed to sneak into our country through the forbidden landscape at our southern border.
But this year, she is seeing something different. Professor Baker told Waco's KXXV TV that they have been seeing the bodies of children more often this year. "I think it's something right now where we're in a crisis," Baker told the TV news. "Now with the number of immigrants coming and the number of children, it's a disastrous situation."
The job is a complicated and often fruitless one, as the professor and her students have to work with multiple agencies in multiple countries. These multiple languages, various bureaucracies, and sometimes even distrust between nations complicate her job.~snip~

I really haven't seen a whole of reporting on the senseless loss of life that occurs because of the constant open border advocacy by liberal/progressives, Obama and the democrats. Republicans aren't blameless either but democrats can minimize this loss of life by closing the borders and to stop encouraging illegals, especially children, to make the journey in the hopes of fading away into the country.
There just doesn't seem to be the same level of compassion from liberal/progressives for the children who die and their bodies are left alone in the desert to be picked apart by scavengers.
This hypocrisy shouldn't be much of a surprise. Anyone who's been paying attention knows that liberal/progressives care about no one. Not gays,not minorities, not women and certainly not children.
All they care about is advancing their agenda, which is to turn the United States into their twisted version of socialist nanny state.

Obamas Silver Bullet?

Bill Clinton seemed to be the teflon president. Any and all scandals that were thrown at him never seemed to stick. Mostly because the media would do what they have always done with leftist administrations.
Cover for them like a blanket.
Because of Clinton the corrupt media has refined the art of covering leftist/liberal ass.
Until now....maybe.

Veterans scandal risks engulfing Obama

Leftists believe and have been able to spin other boneheaded fumbles of this administration as contrived, but the scandal over deceiving veterans and allowing some to die is not something that the lapdog media can sweep under the rug for their democrat masters.
It's also a precursor for what the democrats have in store for us and our loved ones.
You know this is government health care, implemented in the same way the post office,IRS, EPA,and every other incompetent federal program ever enacted.
Why we would want to entrust the government, especially one headed by an incompetent boob like Obama, to safeguard the health of our families is beyond me.

But hey!!
He won so we should get over it....amirite!!!

Only a Surprise if not paying Attention

I personally can't understand that anyone who believes that crippling the electric grid by closing down coal fired plants, gutting the health insurance industry, making our foreign policy a laughing stock among nations, millions disenfranchised from the job market, a sluggish GDP and an administration that is uncaring and disconnected from the voters could be a good thing.

But those people do exist.
For the rest of us sanity rears it's head.

Poll: For the midterms, a tilt to the GOP

WASHINGTON — Democrats hoping improvements in the economy's course and the Affordable Care Act's implementation would level the playing field for November's elections should brace themselves.
A nationwide USA TODAY/Pew Research Center Poll shows the strongest tilt to Republican candidates at this point in a midterm year in at least two decades, including before partisan "waves" in 1994 and 2010 that swept the GOP into power. Though Election Day is six months away — a lifetime in politics — at the moment, Democrats are saddled by angst over the economy, skepticism about the health care law and tepid approval of the president.
"People should start opening their eyes and seeing we're not on track," says Brenna Collins, 32, a small-business owner from Kasson, Minn., who was among those surveyed. "Not exactly saying Republicans are right but that things need to change."
By more than 2-1, 65%-30%, Americans say they want the president elected in 2016 to pursue different policies and programs than the Obama administration, rather than similar ones.
In the 2014 elections, registered voters are inclined to support the Republican candidate over the Democrat in their congressional district by 47%-43%. That 4-percentage-point edge may seem small, but it's notable because Democrats traditionally fare better among registered voters than they do among those who actually cast ballots, especially in low-turnout midterms.~snip~

Over the years Americans can be pretty tolerant about almost anything. As long as it doesn't interfere with their ability to raise their children, pay their bills and allow them to aspire to a better quality of life.
That tolerance begins to wane when people begin to lose the ability to determine their direction in life.
After 6 years of the Obama administration dismantling the middle class people are starting to become fatigued by the obstacles placed in their way by progressive/liberal/democrat policies.
So I got to ask, what are the chances that the liberal/commies/democrats will have the will or even the desire to reverse course by 2016?

Yeah me neither.  

The Racist Myopia of the Left

I ran into this little gem over at the Daily Beast.

Republicans Are Racists? No, It’s Just All a Big Coincidence

Come on, fellow liberals. Calm down. I guess maybe it’s fair to call Cliven Bundy a racist. That “picking cotton” business put it over the top, and wondering whether they were better off under slavery. Even Sean Hannity, Bundy’s greatest media champion, threw in the towel last night: He wanted it to be “abundantly clear,” Hannity said at the top of his show, that he found the remarks “downright racist,” “repugnant,” “beyond disturbing,” and so on.~sni~

As you delve further into the article you'll find that the statute of limitations for repugnant actions and deeds seem to be about 60 years ago where the "author" of this piece begins to "apologize" for Robert Byrds membership in the KKK and then points out that he "recanted" 40 years ago and that Byrd is dead. I guess that means no harm or no foul right.
Surprisingly he does acknowledge the firm connection between the democrat party and the Klan but then he claims that that was "100 years ago" so obviously the democrat party can't be held accountable for their poor choice in association anymore. Now can they?

Apparently the purpose of this little piece of contrived tripe is to suggest that the parties have flipped sides over the years and that republicans are now the real bigots and racists so it's OK to white wash the entire episode of history.
Well the clown writers assertions are pretty much false. For one thing a lot of the statements being made nowadays by misguided conservatives are out of racial ignorance, not malice Also as sad and misguided as these statements are they don't rise to the actual actions of the Klan and the democrats. Some of which happened in the 1950's to the early 1960's.
Statements and missteps by republicans and conservatives nowadays in no way rise to the equivalence of the violence, burnings and lynchings during the klans hayday.
Nor do we see the actions we were witness to by Orval Faubus in 1957 or George Wallace in 1963, both democrats who actively opposed desegregation, by republicans or conservatives.
The democrats obsession with race persists today in the way they try and make everything about race in order to do what they have done for the last 100 years. To divide this country and hold power.
Missteps, misquotes and ignorance by conservatives and republicans are not equivalent to the overt and criminal acts committed by democrats for the last 100 years. First in the interest of "racial purity" and now in the interests of the democrat party.

So mock all you want libs because there are still people out here who know what you really are and we're not going to let you cleanse away the truth.

The Lefts Intolerance

Commie/liberal/leftists will do whatever it takes it shut down dissent. Unfortunately with the mainstream liberal media in their pocket they can manage to get way more attention then they deserve.
Charles Krauthammer takes them to task for trying to control not only speech but our thoughts as well.

Thought police on patrol

Lots of good points in this article but the one thing that needs saying. We, as in the public, allow the lickspittle media to get away with creating mountains out of molehills.
The shrill shouting of the liberal/leftist/commies will only stop when we start ignoring the bleating of the lapdog media.

Pulling the IRS's Strings

I worked in the civil service for about 2 years in the late 70's and even then it was a den of elitist liberalism. They all swore fealty to Jimmy Carter so you know they were a bunch of clueless, blind followers then.

This kind of revelation doesn't surprise me at all.

Darrell Issa: Emails suggest Elijah Cummings prompted IRS targeting of True the Vote

House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa, R-Calif., has accused the panel's top Democrat of prompting the Internal Revenue Service in 2012 to target a conservative organization applying for nonprofit status.
Issa said records obtained last week from the IRS show communications from the office of ranking member Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., about True the Vote, a Texas-based, nonprofit conservative group that aims to prevent voter fraud.
The communications at one point involved Lois Lerner, the ex-IRS official who Issa's panel is poised to hold in contempt of Congress on Thursday for refusing to provide testimony about her involvement in targeting conservative groups.
“The IRS and the Oversight Minority made numerous requests for virtually identical information from True the Vote, raising concerns that the IRS improperly shared protected taxpayer information with Rep. Cummings’ staff,” a statement from the Oversight panel reads.
According to Issa, Cummings and his staff sought “copies of all training materials used for volunteers, affiliates, or other entities,” from True the Vote.
Five days after the Cummings inquiry, the IRS sent True the Vote an email requesting “a copy of [True the Vote’s] volunteer registration form,” “… the process you use to assign volunteers,” “how you keep your volunteers in teams,” and “how your volunteers are deployed … following the training they receive by you.”~snip~

Liberal commies have been corrupting government for decades, we can vote out politicians but the entrenched commie/liberal civil servants that infest government jobs are pretty much untouchable.
They lie in wait either to subvert leadership that doesn't conform to their ideological views or to await instructions from their leftist overlords.
The best thing that could happen is if congress does a clean sweep of all government agencies.

I would bet real money that this kind of thing goes on in just about every government office.

IRS under fire: Vote for Obama stickers, campaign cheerleading commonplace

Even as the IRS faces growing heat over Lois G. Lerner and the tea party targeting scandal, a government watchdog said Wednesday it’s pursuing cases against three other tax agency employees and offices suspected of illegal political activity in support of President Obama and fellow Democrats.~snip~

Beating Back the Liberal Bullies

I caught this segment last night on the "Kelly File" and Weasel Zippers posted the YouTube with some comments about it noting the name calling by leftards Michael Hiltzik of the LA Times and Amanda Marcotte of Slate.
I understand that anything about Christianity drives liberals into uncontrolled fits of head exploding rage but once you get an understanding of the Little Sisters of the Poor for the Aged then I would think anyone with a appreciation for Christian charity would be appalled that someone would go out of their way to call names.

The only good thing that seems to be happening is the blow back that these unrepentant bullies and haters are receiving for their vicious attacks against people who either disagree with them or attempt to follow their deeply held and sincere beliefs.
Some are actually being held accountable like Martin Bashir for his attacks against Sarah Palin or A&E for trying to censor Phil Robertson's religious beliefs.
Just today Melissa Harris-Perry whimpered an apology for shamelessly attacking Mitt Romney's adopted grandchild.

There's been some hopeful signs that people are just getting tired of the constant mocking and insults from liberal/commies attempting to force their worldview on the rest of us.
This would be good news ordinarily if conservatives had a political party that reflected their views but unfortunately all we have is republicans and their leadership who are bound and determined to try and "mainstream" themselves to reflect very few differences between tyranny on the left or right.
 Karl Rove and his syncophants believe that however they warp the party conservatives will have to support them because we have no where else to go. So their next offering will be some milquetoast RINO just like they gave us for the last 2 presidential elections.
It looks like we're going to be fighting 2 battles in the midterms and the next presidential elections, beating back the hateful liberal left and the intransigent weenies of the republican party.

Ducking A&E

In another shot across the bow of the culture wars GQ magazine sent a reporter to....well report on the Duck Dynasty clan.
And it seems he got just what he was looking for. If you read the preamble to the article the first thing that jumps out at you is that the interviewer isn't exactly a neutral observer.

How in the world did a family of squirrel-eating, Bible-thumping, catchphrase-spouting duck hunters become the biggest TV stars in America? And what will they do now that they have 14 million fervent disciples? Our Drew Magary toured the Louisiana backwater with Phil Robertson and the Duck Dynasty gang to find out

As you read the rest of the article you see that the guy can barely contain his disdain for what he perceives as backwater rednecks (of course not having it occur to him that they are very happy and successful backwater rednecks).

Eventually he asks the question that produces the mother lode: What, in your mind, is sinful?

What I find interesting about this is why would a bunch of effete leftists give a tinkers damn about a show about a family that made it's fortune by doing what they love and live for faith and family?
Of course you can't dismiss the disdain that they feel about the family's insistence about not hiding their faith so they realized that a few choice quotes can take them down a notch or 2.
The author of this hit piece probably tinkled himself a little bit when he got the money quotes.
Simply put, in my opinion, this was a trap. A chance to possibly purge an embarrassing show about people who believe in God,guns and country.
The "gay" rights groups were notified who then fell in line to condemn Phil's opinion and then pressure A&E to do something about it. So they suspended him from the show.
Then the crap storm happened.
A facebook page set up almost 24 hours ago to support Phil Robertson currently has 947 K likes and growing, it should go over a million sometime this evening.
As much as everyone wants to make this about 1st amendment free speech rights A&E is a private company and has the freedom to determine what is and is not acceptable. But seeing as how the Robertson family is wealthy anyway they don't really need A&E, however Duck Dynasty is A&E highest rated show....ever.

What this is about is the free market, if the rest of the DD clan stands behind Phil and decides to walk away the question becomes can A&E give up the ratings and money that DD brings to the network.

You have to wonder if the suits at A&E are so stupid as to pander to what is really a small minority demographically that, until GQ wrote their hit piece, couldn't have cared less about Duck Dynasty.

The Robertson Family Official Statement
