The tax (or borrow) and spend “liberals” and the Democratic Party that they control are at it again: they threaten America that if the U.S. House of Representatives doesn’t push our country deeper into debt then the Obama administration will cut social security checks to the elderly, stop payments to the military fighting in Afghanistan and elsewhere, default paying interest on national debt, and do other nasty things that would inflict even more damage to our already already ailing country. The TV adds that the “liberal” elites are airing (I just saw one of Fox News) these days threatens that our children will suffer if they (the “liberals”) don’t have their way.
Many, although not all, public sector unions became organized groups of extortion that use Liberal/Democrat lawmakers under unions’ influence and protection in order to deprive, via progressing taxation, hard-working Americans of the fruits of their work for the benefit of the unions’ members. The Liberal/Democrat lawmakers have no interest in resisting unions’ demands and just keep imposing more an more taxes on the public that apparently has no collective right to resist such a rip-off, or if the resistance against the tax hikes is stronger than the urge to tax, the lawmakers keep borrowing money in order to feed their unsustainable generosity for the public sector employees.
The “Liberal” media once again showed their true colors, and these are not the American colors despite the fact that many of them are waving red, blue, and white in a wake of the losses the “Liberals” incurred in the 2010 mid-term elections.
Take, for instance, Tucson, Ariz., shooting that left a U.S. congresswoman critically wounded, and 19 others injured or dead earlier this month.
In case you wonder while boarding a plane, where have your Constitutional rights gone, I have the answer for you: they have been redistributed.
You have to “voluntarily” submit yourself to humiliating procedure that borders with sexual assault as a precondition to your exercise of your right to travel. Your genitals may be inspected, a TSA agent may wander with her hand under your wife’s skirt, and even your kids may be exposed on what you thought was child molesting.
Somehow, when I watched President Obama delivering his post-election speech on November 3, 2010, I felt sorry for him. To all bad things that he has done to our country, that I wish he didn’t, I couldn’t help liking him as a person and a fellow American. I know it is never going happen, but I would be delighted if he were my friend, even though we disagree on so many issues that are dear to my heart.
When I was reading the news about world-wide protests of Muslims against a threat by a Florida church pastor to burn koran on the anniversary of 9-11 attacks, illustrated with pictures of angry Middle-Easterners desecrating and burning our flags, their fists waving in the air, I thought I was Alice in Wonderland. The absurdity of the situation, when these narrow-minded people were already retaliating against us for “atrocities” that we had not committed yet (and, according to their cheerleaders, we had no right to commit although they did this kind of things to us on a regular basis), was mind boggling to the point that it was infuriating.
About every time I hear someone praising the benefits of immigration, which sort of eulogy is a typical point of departure for concluding that unrestricted immigration is the best thing that ever happened to America and about everything that obstructs it is bad, I cannot help seeing a striking similarity between the alleged “anti-immigration hysteria” and measures that protect us from violent forces of nature.
As I watched an interview with one of the spokesmen for the Muslim community in the U.S. on the Fox News yesterday regarding the “ground zero” mosque controversy, I asked myself this question. Why do we allow all those who are in an obvious contempt of our culture, religion, and laws to come to and live in America? Wouldn’t we be better off if we kept all the actual and potential troublemakers on the other side of the border?
Ever since late Pres. Lyndon B. Johnson imposed his “Great Society” program on America in mid-1960ties, bad things have been happening to our country.
His “Civil Rights” initiative brought the curses of multiculturalism and diversity on our heads. (If diversity were strength then we should be one invincible and booming economy on Earth, leaving everybody else in dust. Which, unfortunately, we are no more.)
I thought I was hallucinating. California’s local governments of left-leaning Liberal denomination are considering commercial boycott of Arizona for its alleged violation of presumed federal monopoly on immigration enforcement. But I wasn’t hallucinating. They, apparently, are really going to do so.
It’s like as if a thief were crying “Catch the thief!”
How “no racial profiling” idiocy makes us dumber than we are
Imagine a detective who tries to catch a serial rapist. He first compiles a suspects list on which he puts both men and women. In his commitment to avoid gender profiling, he makes sure that for every male he suspects of a rape there is a female suspect on his list, too. What a fool, you might think, and you’d be right. It’s the same kind of idiocy as when an airport security agent pulls out of a waiting line a white grandma for a “random” anti-terrorist screening (“racial profiling” is strictly prohibited to the agents).

So, the idiot who writes for the New York Times in not just an idiot. He is a dangerous idiot. Together with other dangerous idiots from NBC, CBS, ABC, and other “mainstream” media, they are orchestrating the largest nation wrecking in modern times. And it does not matter if it is a conspiracy or a spontaneous collaboration…
A recent op-ed piece [1] in the New York Times is a solid example of “Liberal” nonsense (see [2] for more) with a healthy dose of deceit. Its author, who on his photograph resembled a white male straight American, accused the Tea Party goers of racism, hatred, and other forms of bigotry that were the real reasons – in author’s opinion – of their vehemently opposing the Obamacare legislation.
While trying to portray their anger as “illogical” reaction based on “hysteria” and stirred up by “apocalyptic predictions,” the author made these dire forecasts of America’s demographic destiny, apparently unaware that he was contradicting his own theses of apocalyptically-hysteric illogicality of critics of Pres. Obama’s legislative agenda.
After I wrote my column “Liberal non-elimination” three weeks ago, I was left with a distinctive feeling that I left the core of the subject of “Liberalism” unaddressed. This short analysis is intended as a make up for this lack of thoroughness.
There are so many absurdities that the “Liberals” commit.
On one hand, they give lip service to Darwin and natural evolution (footnote: Whether Darwin’s evolution theory is correct or not does not affect the validity of the argument presented here), but on the other hand they insist on “intelligently” re-engineering the human nature, by removing what they call “racism” and “greed” from it, and redoing the most complicated system that nature has created on Earth: the Western society.
“Gangs Armed With Machetes Loot Port-Au-Prince.” “Angry Haitians block roads with corpses.” “Looting on Rise amid Haiti’s Growing Desperation.” These are some of the shocking headline news that come from Haiti these days. A small 99 percent black nation who inhabits half of a Caribbean island that should have been a paradise but weren’t, turned into a hell on Earth. America’s reaction was what one would expect: spontaneous fund raisers and humanitarian help initiatives, as well as mobilization of U.S. troops to deliver relief to people that on January 12, 2010, were stoke by a deadly disaster, an earthquake of 7.0 magnitude.
The “Liberal” idea of not eliminating our sworn enemies (mainly, Islamic terrorists) is well rooted in a similar “Liberal” non-elimination idea directed at domestic criminals. It was being perpetuated by various leftist groups, and was once advertized as “educate not incarcerate” and nicknamed as “hug the thug” program. Although it correctly assumes that the bad guys will tend to not assail us, at least for a time being, if we pay them handsomely not to, it ignores two important facts of life: that our sworn enemies, as well as the criminals, tend to multiply faster than we do, and that the lion share of their aggressively violent stance towards us is the result of their overpopulating their societies as well as heredity of the genetic traits that impact their destructive and asocial, if not barbaric, behavior.
Good manners are on decline. Rules of etiquette are being ignored. Boorish and disrespectful behavior, even bullying, become more and more prevalent in workplace and in public square. Rap “music” has been declared an art to which the entire generation of youngsters is exposed. You may watch on TV people screaming at each other, resorting to abusive or inflammatory language, and engaging in other breaches of civilized conduct, let alone their nonconforming looks and body language, but that kind of misbehavior was unseen on silver screen just a few decades ago. Are we, Americans, progressing towards social primitivism?
I was a long-time opponent of population growth. Not any more. While I staunchly oppose engineered and subsidized population growth of the so-called “under-represented” minorities, be it domestic or imported, I came to believe that the ethnic majority in the U.S., as well as in Western Europe, committed a major mistake by accepting the self(?)-imposed procreation limits that no other ethnic group is willing to live by. As a result, we let our own government, which is increasingly hostile to the ethnic majority, as well as other nations and their governments, maneuver us into the absurd position where, despite building the most stable society and the most successful economy, and despite having the most potent army, we are losing to the “minorities” of the world the fruits of our work, the blessings of our liberty, and even the land of our country.
Just take a look at today’s demographic shift that is going on in America.
About a year ago, I published an article [1] that blamed the government-sponsored speculation by the so-called under-served borrowers for the housing market crash. A reader signed as John questioned its plausibility and wrote:
“This article lacks validity. Author suggests that the poor caused the crash, which is totally absurd.”
Unfortunately, the claim that in an industrial or post-industrial society the primary source of the wealth of the rich is the exploitation of the poor has been a common myth for some 160 years now.
August 9, 2009 – I was really appalled by the furry with which the “Liberal” establishment, including Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), reacted to Rush Limbaugh’s comparison of “Liberalism” to Nazism. Not that I was surprised, though. The “Liberals” mastered the art of projection defined as a tendency of projecting one’s usually sinister intentions on others.
After years of “Liberal” claims that “white right-wing extremists” (which term includes about everyone of white complexion that may be characterized as a “conservative” or “not Liberal”) and Nazis are birds of feather, it was only a matter of time when the “Liberals” would denounce their opponents (in particular, Rush Limbaugh) for playing the Nazi card. And it did happen now.
