I Can’t Believe Someone Would Do This
Oct 13, 2009 Political
Some cretin sneaked into a Massachusetts golf course overnight and used a tool or shoes with cleats or spikes (like maybe, golf shoes) to dig a green up with the words “I [Swastika] Obama.” Some lowlife degenerate dug those words into the 18th green. The words were discovered by workers when they arrived at work. They tried to paint over it with green paint but that did not work so they might have to dig it up and plant some sod.
What kind of lowlife, degenerate, half witted, knuckle dragging moron would do something like this?
I mean, who defaces a golf course?
My G-d, have they no decency?

UPDATE: Commenter Victoria says that the symbol is one of hope and peace in some eastern religions.
They think it was supposed to be a swastika, however, in the way that it is done it means hope and peace in some eastern religions.
Therefore, it might be I hope and peace Obama. Still makes no sense…

A Tale Of Two Media
Aug 12, 2009 Political
[note]It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair… Charles Dickens, A Tale of Two Cities[/note]
The discourse in America is being attacked by the liberal media because the people are attacking the plans of their chosen messiah. Obama has been spending like crazy, breaking campaign promises right and left and he has been pushing a Socialist agenda on the people. He and his Democratic minions as well as his Chicago thugs and SEIU goons are trying to stifle dissent by attacking the people who are expressing themselves. But what are we coming to? The signs that are displayed and the actions of the people are out of this world:
…protesters stalked his motorcade, assailed his limousine and stoned a car containing his advisers. Calling the President a terrorist, the demonstrators bullied passers-by, including gay softball players and a wheelchair-bound grandfather with multiple sclerosis.
One protester even brandished a sign that seemed to advocate the President’s assassination. The man held a large photo of the President that had been doctored to show a gun barrel pressed against his temple.
What kind of people would do this sort of thing? These are over the top antics by truly deranged people and the media are right to go after them because this is no way to express dissatisfaction. The media should not, however, say that these fringe elements represent an entire group of people.
Not to worry, the media did not even cover the event very much and none of the people were labeled as terrorists, whack jobs, nuts, or racists. This is because the paraphrased quote above is from a story describing how liberals reacted to President Bush when he attended a fundraiser in 2002.
The media did not cover this, the talking heads did not have any of them on TV discussing how dangerous they are and asking what kind of impression people should have and they were seen as people being patriotic by dissenting.
Now that Obama and his Democrats are catching hell the media are portraying people as nuts. Those who do have a Nazi symbol are pointed out by Nancy Pelosi (she did not point out the Nazi symbol at the Bush protest) and the media as representatives of an entire group of people and the group is stated to be all conservative. Democrats do not need Republican votes to pass anything so there must be more than just Republicans at these meetings.
This is how the media reacts to different parties. When Republicans are in power the protests are seen as dissent and the over the top stuff is ignored because the evil Republican deserves it. When a Democrat is in charge the media rally and start labeling people exercising their First Amendment rights as right wing nut jobs who are a bunch of racists that can’t stand a black man being in charge. This is what the media ignores while labeling you a nut job or dangerous:
Protesters slashed the tires of several state patrol cruisers and leapt onto an occupied police car, slamming the hood and blocking the windshield with placards. A female police officer was knocked to the street by advancing protesters, badly injuring her wrist.
The angry protest grew so violent that the Secret Service was forced to take the highly unusual step of using a backup route for Bush’s motorcade because the primary route had been compromised by protesters, one of whom pounded his fist on the president’s moving limousine.
Obama wants to stifle dissent and debate as evidenced by his statement that he wants those who caused the problem to be quiet and let him clean up the mess. There are plenty of people from both parties who are responsible for this mess so if he wants those who caused it to be quiet DC will sound like a library.
Pelosi and Hoyer called those who were up in arms un-American and Arlen Specter said that they do not represent most of America. As if a guy who can’t figure out what party he wants to be in knows what represents America.
Don’t let these elitists get you down. We have a formidable task in fighting the Socialists because we have to fight the elected as well as their media wing. The media will not report on their own mess but will hype up anything that will bring scorn to bear on the conservatives in this country.
Turn their programs off. Fight against government abuse. Vote every member of the House out of office next year. If you only vote for Democrats then vote for the primary challenger, same goes for Republicans. If there are no challengers in the primary then don’t vote for that particular candidate. If party is a secondary concern then vote for the other person. We can change the political landscape by voting them out of office.
We can also change what they do by voicing our opposition to their Socialist plans.
Now is the time for the next revolution. It needs to be peaceful (as long as the opposition keeps it that way) but effective.

UPDATE: Georgia Democrat David Scott’s office sign had a swastika painted on it. I don’t condone that kind of behavior (but rest assured the liberal media will blame it on a conservative extremist) but found what Scott said kind of interesting:
“We have got to make sure that the symbol of the swastika does not win, that the racial hatred that’s bubbling up does not win this debate,” Scott said in a telephone interview. “There’s so much hatred out there for President (Barack) Obama.” Yahoo News
I don’t remember Scott having this sentiment when the radical left was marching against Bush and proudly displaying that Nazi symbol.

Burn a Flag, Get Extra Credit
Nov 3, 2007 General
A University of Maine student has dropped a course and filed a complaint because the professor offered extra credit for students who burned an American Flag or the US Constitution (a copy, of course). Rebekah McDade said she has a strong family background of military service and stated the Flag and Constitution are important symbols to her. She decided to drop the class and take it next semester with a different professor. The Professor, Paul Grosswiler, said that he never intended for students to actually burn anything and that hundreds of past students understood that this was designed to spark debate about free speech. This is like Al Sharpton threatening violence and then claiming he never actually meant for people to be violent when one of his supporters kills someone.
I would not have dropped the class because it would have been too much fun to harass this professor for the entire semester. Imagine how he would react to me referring to him as an idiot or as a liberal twit, all under the guise of free speech. Now I would never burn a Flag or the Constitution (though Congress figuratively burns the Constitution when it passes bills not authorized by the document) but I would participate in the extra credit exercise. I would get to class early and hang a noose up front. Then when the class and Grosswiler arrived and started the wheels of the hate crime machine turning I would say that the noose was mine and that I wanted my extra credit.
You see, Grosswiler has defended his position by claiming that refers to provocative examples to demonstrate the courage necessary to support free expression. He stated that “If they don’t tolerate thought that they hate, they don’t believe in the First Amendment.” I would be there to test the limits of how much he would tolerate. I might wear a swastika or Abortion is Murder shirt or perhaps one that reads “Their symbol is a Jackass, any questions?” just to see if he would be as accepting as he expects others to be.
A spokesman for the University said that Grosswiler’s classroom statements were not meant to be taken seriously and that no one would get extra credit for burning the items in question. So how much of the professor’s classroom comments are not to be taken seriously? Should they just ignore him or are they supposed to decipher when he is serious and when he is not?
All of this is pretty basic liberal double speak. The liberal professor gets taken to task for his words so he decides to say he never really meant it. That did not work for Imus nor has it worked for any conservative who has been accused of the wrong kind of free speech.
I just wonder why this professor felt it necessary to duck the issue. If he truly believes what he says why not exercise his free speech and say so?
Perhaps it is because he knows that words, protected or not, have consequences. Or maybe he lacks the spine to actually defend his position. In any event, this guy is what is wrong with the American educational system.
