Compare & contrast [Darleen Click] UPDATED
Interesting to note the painting of Chavez Google selected is done in the Heroic Realism style so favored by authoritarian collectivists – required in both USSR and Nazi Germany. And, oh, Chavez is still dead. ******************* Concerning Chavez, “history” as taught about him has little to with the truth In fact he’d been a passionate and tireless student of labor relations for a decade before founding the UFW, handpicked to
To all my Christian friends
Wishing you all a happy Easter. May it be filled with family, friends, relaxation, and delicious (though perhaps inappropriately-named) deviled eggs. And of course, pie.
The myth of the contemporary “blue dog” Democrat
A note to the LA Times: you can own a gun, be a “lifelong hunter,” hail from California’s “rugged North Coast and the premier Napa-Sonoma wine country,” and still be a would-be fascist looking to use your temporary power as an elected official in a likely gerrymandered district to steal away the natural rights of millions of others. This is not, as you put it, the “voice of sense.” It
My response to the plethora of same-sex ‘marriage’ icons [Darleen Click]
John Fund on getting the government out of marriage Both sides operate from the shaky premise that government must be the arbiter of this dispute. Columnist Andrew Sullivan, a crusader for gay marriage, has written that “marriage is a formal, public institution that only the government can grant.” But that’s not so. Marriage predates government. Marriage scholar Lawrence Stone has noted that in the Middle Ages it was “treated as
“Obama uses executive power to move gun control agenda forward”
The Hill: President Obama is quietly moving forward on gun control. The president has used his executive powers to bolster the national background check system, jumpstart government research on the causes of gun violence and create a million-dollar ad campaign aimed at safe gun ownership. The executive steps will give federal law enforcement officials access to more data about guns and their owners, help keep guns out of the hands
The veil drops: Planned Parenthood endorses post-abortion infanticide [Darleen Click]
Even the Florida legislators were gobsmacked Florida legislators considering a bill to require abortionists to provide medical care to an infant who survives an abortion were shocked during a committee hearing this week when a Planned Parenthood official endorsed a right to post-birth abortion. Alisa LaPolt Snow, the lobbyist representing the Florida Alliance of Planned Parenthood Affiliates, testified that her organization believes the decision to kill an infant who survives
Republican Senator Chuck Grassley supports Gun Control Lite package
I respectfully ask that you contact the offices of both Grassley and Mitch McConnell and politely, but in no uncertain terms, tell them to grow a pair and stop behaving like mewling pussies, afeared of what the popular kids will say about them around the Senate’s “cool” lunch table. Our rights are not theirs to “compromise” on. And we’re not going to allow them to do it. Senator Chuck Grassley:
“Cops Disarmed By Ammo-Hoarding Gun Nuts, Complains Salon Writer”
Or, to put it another way, “Liberal Salon writer pretends to care that the brutish pigs are complaining that other citizens beat them to the ammo that they are used to having in plentiful supply.” I ask you this in all sincerity: does anyone anywhere anymore believe that the arguments coming from these anti-foundationalist bullshit artists have even an inkling of integrity to them? Or is it becoming universally clear
“Biden: The assault-weapons ban is ‘just the beginning’ of our gun-control plans”
Joe Scarborough will reportedly be given a primary speaking engagement at the next NRO “conservative summit” to express his absolute SHOCK! Biden, speaking during a conference call with “Mayors Against Illegal Guns:” And lastly, but not least, the Assault Weapons ban and the limitation on the size of magazines, let me say this as clearly as I can: this is just the beginning. We believe that weapons of war have
