Hitman Max Blumenthal and the Party of Tolerance
Mar 9, 2007 Uncategorized
Max Blumenthal of the Nation was on MSNBC in an apparent attempt to discredit Republicans with regard to Ann Coulter’s comment about John Edwards (in which she made reference to the word faggot) and Marine Corporal Matt Sanchez. It appears that Sanchez, who has been on many Conservative programs and was pictured with prominent Conservatives at the recent CPAC, has a past of acting in gay porn movies and being a gay escort. Evidently, this is in his past and not the life he currently lives.
Max Blumenthal and the other Liberals are supposed to be from the party of tolerant people and who live and let live, love the one you’re with, peace out and all that jazz. The sexuality of a person does not matter to these people, unless of course the person in question is a Republican. We saw this during the Mark Foley incident where Liberals beat up the Republican Party up after the Democrats had, years earlier, applauded one of their own who actually had sexual relations with a young man. I pointed out at the time that Democrats get a pass because they have no values. Since the Republican Party is supposed to be the party of family values it takes a greater hit whenever an incident occurs. Democrats seem to forget that as humans we all have failings and we all sin. Unfortunately, they only forgive and forget when it comes to their own. Actually, the forget because Democrats never need to be forgiven for their transgressions.
I do not excuse wrong doing, though I believe in forgiveness. I did not excuse Foley for what he did and I do not excuse Bill Clinton for what he did. Therein lies the major difference. Republicans will call out a person who does wrong no matter what party that person belongs to, and are especially hard on their own. In the MSNBC hit job Blumenthal basically outs Matt Sanchez by bringing up an issue that I am sure Sanchez would like to leave behind him. He does this for one reason and one reason only and that is to discredit Republicans who championed Sanchez for his Conservative views. Blumenthal makes the statement that Republicans will throw Sanchez under the bus now that they know about him. I don’t think this is the case and Michelle Malkin has weighed in on this. David Horowitz has weighed in and has taken Blumenthal to task on his manner of reporting.
Max Blumenthal is like a smaller, whinier, more feminine version of Michael Moore. Blumenthal shows up and shoves a camera in people’s faces and then after he is done he edits the film to show his slanted perspective. He is nothing more than a video version of the National Enquirer. His piece filmed at the CPAC is designed to make the participants look bad. Blumenthal infers things that have not been said (or have been taken out of context) and he tries to show the Republicans as a party of white racists who hate gays and everything else that is not white bread, old boy, Christian and redneck. He attacked Michelle Malkin and several others at the conference and then used his video to make them look bad. Selective editing is a wonderful thing and, as Michael Moore has discovered, it can make one very wealthy.
I do not care about Matt Sanchez’s past because that is his business and it is something he will need to reconcile on his own. If his past is an issue with the Marines then he will have to bear the brunt of the military policy toward gay service members. There is a law that covers gays in the military and whatever they decide to do, within the purview of the law, is what Sanchez will have to deal with. But that does not diminish his service or his stance on the way the military has been treated at colleges. Just as Bill Clinton’s infidelity did not diminish the things the left feels he did that were good for this country. Once again, the Republican must suffer a different standard from the Max Blumenthal’s of the world and his minions in the tolerant party.
There are many gay people in the Republican Party and there is a group called the Log Cabin Republicans. I do not agree with that lifestyle but I m not going to throw anyone under a bus because they live it. They will have to face judgment for their decisions just as the rest of us, and that is between them and God. Unfortunately, people on the left like Max Blumenthal are not able to understand this and go out of their way to out people and make an issue out of their lives. I wonder where the Liberal uproar is over this outing. I am talking about the same uproar that was present when Wild Bill outed Jordan Edmund as the “child” with whom Foley was playing footsie. Blumenthal did to Sanchez what people did to the Jews in Nazi Germany. He exposed something that might cause harm (though in this case it is emotional not physical) and embarrassment to him and his family for personal gain or favor. The major difference is that in Nazi Germany, a guy with the name Blumenthal who was outed would be taken for a shower.
Clint Eastwood once told Michael Moore that if he [Moore] ever showed up at Eastwood’s house and shoved a camera in his face he [Eastwood] would kill him. I can not say that I would kill Max Blumenthal (or take him to a shower) but if he ever walked up to me and shoved a camera in my face the way he did to people at the CPAC it is likely that he would go home with a camera strategically placed in a body orifice. I will be at the Gathering of Eagles on 17 March, should premier journalist Max like to test this issue.
It is unfortunate that people such as Blumenthal get any attention because he obviously has such low self esteem that he craves being in the spotlight. His mommy probably did not give him enough attention and maybe he is paving a path to come out of his own closet. Wild Bill has the videos posted at his site and you can see them there. Notice how Max questions Coulter about how she is not married (more accurately, has had three failed engagements). Does it make any difference that Coulter is not married? For a guy from the party that supposedly believes in choice, it is hard to believe that he can’t see that there is a choice not to get married as well.
Maybe it is not so hard to believe when you understand that Liberals have blinders to equality and are not so tolerant after all.

Hillary Clinton Panders to Gays
Mar 7, 2007 Political
Two days after Ann Coulter referred to John Edwards as a faggot, Hillary Clinton was at a gay groups meeting where she addressed the assembly. You might not have heard about it because Clinton made no prior announcement of the speech. In that speech she stated that she was opposed to the don’t ask don’t tell policy her husband instituted and promised that when she is president she will take care of this little problem. The Clinton camp said the speech was not announced because the meeting is closed to the press. That seems a little weak to me.
Clinton probably tried to secure the gay vote while taking care not to tick off the Christians she has been pandering to. Clinton went from using a southern drawl to pander to a black church to swishing into a gay convention to pander to the queer constituency. Hillary Clinton will be everything to everybody in order to get elected. She made it clear to the gay group that she wanted gay people to marry and was proud that she helped defeat the same sex marriage amendment. Clinton told the gays that the White House would be as open to them as her Senate office is. Considering the past rumors about her this is not hard to believe. But does America need a bunch of gays prancing around the White House? I guess if they have enough money they can stay in the Lincoln bedroom.
Clinton wants it any way she can get it (the presidency) and she will say anything to anybody to get it. I guess she is OK with putting the group that has the largest responsibility for the spread of HIV in a battle zone where blood gets all over. I want this to get a lot of publicity and when the Christian vote starts to slip further away I want to see how Ms. southern drawl, Rebbecca from Sunnybrook Farms spins this one.

That old song about Pink Berets comes to mind when I hear the debate of gays in the military:
Falling fairies from the sky
I broke a nail G-d I could cry
Don’t you like the way
My tushy sways
I’m a man in a pink beret

New Democrats? Right, When Pigs Fly
Mar 7, 2007 Political
During the last campaign season we were told all about the culture of corruption and how Bella Pelosi was going to clean House when she became the mother hen. Harry Reid was going to run a tight ship in the Senate which is funny because he is as crooked as they come. Two months into their reign of terror power and they are already screwing the pooch. The Democrats, who promised a more responsible government, have already blown to bits the five day work week they promised. They have already shown no support for our troops and they have been involved in their own extravagant displays of power (like special aircraft).
Now those principled Democrats are going to add a bunch of PORK to the spending bill for the war. The donks are betting that Bush will not veto a spending package that is for the troops so they are adding all kinds of items that have absolutely nothing to do with the war. The donks will add farm relief for California fruit farmers and Colorado livestock owners who were hurt when freezing temperatures and blizzards, no doubt the result of global warming, wiped out their products.
The spending package is for the war and the Democrats need to keep from adding non war items to it. If they want to spend taxpayer money on these other things they should introduce legislation to do so and see if it passes muster. I think that if they add to the bill George Bush should go on national TV and say that he is going to veto it because the Democrats added things that are not for the war and that they are not fulfilling their promises of being responsible. He could then say that America has this because they voted for a bunch of closet criminals. He might want to hurt them even more by pardoning Libby at the same time.
It is high time the President had line item veto authority so that these abuses can be stopped. Any member of Congress that feels froggy can contact me at any time so I can set you straight on what you are supposed to do. You seem to have forgotten, once again, that you work for us. I will be happy to set you straight.
If Flight 93 had made it to the Capitol this country would have been a lot better off than it is today. Instead, Congress does not care because they were not affected. They would prefer to play games with the lives of our men and women in uniform. Piss on Congress. They do not deserve the air they breathe.

Can Kennedy Be More Hypocritical?
Mar 6, 2007 Uncategorized
Today Scooter Libby was found guilty of perjury and obstruction of justice stemming from a witch hunt. I have already indicated that George Bush should pardon him. Not only would it be appropriate but it would tick off the left. Senator Ted Kennedy has weighed in on the matter:
“President Bush should now pledge that he will not pardon Scooter Libby,” scolded Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Edward Kennedy shortly after Libby was convicted Tuesday of obstructing justice and lying to investigators. NewsMax
Leave it to Ted Kennedy to say that Libby should be in jail when this bloated jackass was never held accountable for killing Mary Jo Kopechne. Teddy laid on the bridge in a fetal position crying about how this would hurt his political career and then showed up for the cameras sporting a neck collar while faking an injury. This all occurred after he swam across the channel and slept off the booze. Ted then had someone he knew take care of his expired driver’s license. Kennedy NEVER spent a day in jail for killing that girl because he pleaded to a lesser charge and received a two month suspended sentence and a year probation. Now he has the audacity to say that Libbey should not get a pardon. Libbey was convicted of lying to the Grand Jury, the same damned thing Clinton did and Teddy supported Clinton.
This blow hard needs to tie one on, go to sleep and stay that way.

Obama is a Race Card Shark
Mar 6, 2007 Political
Barack Obama was in Selma Alabama this past week commemorating the the civil rights movement. He made an impassioned speech and in it he talked about equality and the enforcement of anti-discrimination laws. He talked about how the black schools have less money and more problems. I thought that desegregation took away “black” schools. I know that there are likely to be more black people in schools that are located in areas where the population is predominantly black but that is not because someone is forcing black kids to go to a segregated school. I read the speech and i will admit that it was a good one and very passionate. I also have to admit that Obama did a little double speak in which he said that we needed to end discrimination but then asked that we have more of it:
I had a school in southern Illinois that set up a program for PhD’s in math and science for African Americans. And the reason they had set it up is because we only had less than 1% of the PhD’s in science and math go to African Americans. At a time when we are competing in a global economy, when we’re not competing just against folks in North Carolina or Florida or California, we’re competing against folks in China and India and we need math and science majors, this university thought this might be a nice thing to do. And the justice department wrote them a letter saying we are going to threaten to sue you for reverse discrimination unless you cease this program.
And it reminds us that we still got a lot of work to do, and that the basic enforcement of anti-discrimination laws, the injustice that still exists within our criminal justice system, the disparity in terms of how people are treated in this country continues. It has gotten better. And we should never deny that it’s gotten better. But we shouldn’t forget that better is not good enough. That until we have absolute equality in this country in terms of people being treated on the basis of their color or their gender, that that is something that we’ve got to continue to work on and the Joshua generation has a significant task in making that happen. [emphasis mine]
I want someone to look at this and honestly tell me that Obama is not saying that we need the justice department to enforce anti-discrimination laws right after he chastised them for enforcing anti-discrimination laws. Only a moonbat can think that discrimination is bad except when the moonbat is enjoying the benefits of discrimination. Just before this in the speech Obama indicates that people are upset because a small number of blacks and Latinos get a break, or an advantage when it comes to education. He then goes on to utter the words above. Obama said that it has gotten better but will not be satisfactory until we have absolute equality in terms of how people are treated with regard to skin color or gender. I guess to Obama giving someone an advantage based on skin color is the idea of equality. I guess Obama thinks blacks are being treated equally only so long as they get advantages that whites do not get when it comes to education and job selection. As soon as the justice department tries to enforce the law regarding discrimination he gets upset because the people getting the unfair advantage are black.
How can any group of people expect to be treated as equals when they constantly demand advantages that are not afforded to others? How can Obama expect the black community not to be looked at as inferior if they insist on help that is not available to others? If you need special treatment to get where others are, then you are not equal to those people. The idea for affirmative action was to give a boost to those adversely affected by slavery and the years of oppression that followed. The whole idea was inherently discriminatory and many qualified white people did not get to college so that less qualified blacks could. The time is long past for these discriminatory practices. No one alive today has been held as a slave and there are opportunities for everyone. If people want to go to college then they need to apply themselves in school and get good grades. Regardless, blacks today need to stop depending on programs that do nothing more than give the impression that they are unable to compete on a level playing field.
There is one other item that is a bit off my original subject but I could not let it go without comment. Obama indicated that part of the problem in the black community is that men are not taking responsibility when they father children:
We have too many children in poverty in this country and everybody should be ashamed, but don’t tell me it doesn’t have a little to do with the fact that we got too many daddies not acting like daddies. Don’t think that fatherhood ends at conception. I know something about that because my father wasn’t around when I was young and I struggled.
He said that fatherhood does not end at conception. Given that sentiment does that not indicate that fatherhood begins at conception and that is because life begins at conception? He could have said that fatherhood does not end at the birth of your child but he specifically used the word conception. This will be interesting to look at as he more clearly defines his position on abortion. As it stands right now, fatherhood begins at conception and, for some, ends with abortion.
As I indicated this was a passionate speech but it was full of contradictions and it was designed to pander to a certain audience. I will be happy on the day we have a person running for office who says that people of all color can make it on their own and do not need special help from the government. This will take a while because we have bred a generation of people who think that the government is there to provide for them. In this speech Obama points out Katrina and the way that the 10% funding requirement for disaster was waived for New York and Florida but not for New Orleans. I suppose this is supposed to indicate that it is because most of the folks were black. Obama indicates that this was the worst natural disaster and the federal government did not waive the fee. I will remind Obama that the government gave the most amount of money ever awarded for a natural disaster to new Orleans. 250 BILLION dollars came from taxpayers to rebuild this place. Obama laments that it is not done yet. There are people in Florida who still have not been able to rebuild the damage caused years ago by Hurricane Andrew.
Perhaps Obama can stop playing the race card and start acting like a politician.
