The anti-American Victicrats just love them some of Obama’s Rantin’, Racist Reverend

Posted in Race Pimping, The scurge of PC on March 30th, 2008 by gatordoug

So much to cover here, I will just give you my take ahead of time and then send you to what Michelle Malkin has on this despicable reunion.

The lack of significant outrage at Obama’s pastor, mentor, spiritual bigot and his outrageous remarks from the left is not so much that they hate White folks like he does, it is his well-documented hatred for America that gives them orgasms.

Now, go check out the links, barf-bag may be required! First Michelle Malkin has the info on the “priest” who thinks it is Christian to want kill folks who believe in the Second Ammemndment. Michelle also has a nice video of this tool defending Obama’s pastor.

After you watch the video, rinse with mouthwash, and go here to see the same priest who wants to kill gun-rights supporters loving up the Sinister Minister Farrakhan!

New Liberal malady diagnosed! APOLOGITIS!

Posted in Culture, The scurge of PC on March 29th, 2008 by gatordoug

I was checking out one of the best blogs around, Hot Air, earlier, and found a post about apologizing amd America’s perverse obssession with it.

After checking out the story, it dawned on me that Americans are now suffering from a new disease. Apologitis, or the need to hear anyone that says anything even remotely offensive to anyone apologize for saying what they believe.

Personaly folks, if someone says something that offends me, no apology will change it, or change what they THINK. Now, instead of an apology, especially an obviously scripted and fake apology, let me debate them on it. Rubbing their noses in their ignorance or stupidity in a very public forum? Yes, that will make me feel better! A fake apology I can live without!

Apologitis is just another sign of how shallow Americans are becoming my friends. We do not need that, we need depth amd substance, not touchy feely hypersensitivity! 

Florida legislature aplogizes for slavery.

Posted in Race Pimping, The scurge of PC on March 26th, 2008 by gatordoug

Another touchy, feely, and useless exercise in PC.

”The Legislature expresses its profound regret for Florida’s role in sanctioning and perpetuating involuntary servitude upon generations of African slaves,” said the resolution, pushed by black lawmakers.

In the Senate, during the reading of the resolution and the recounting of the slave codes passed by the Territorial Council in 1822 and struck down in 1868 — three years after the Civil War ended — Sen. Arthenia Joyner, a Tampa Democrat, sobbed during the presentation of the resolution, which passed on a voice vote.

Not to be outdone, Florida Governor Charlie Crist said he was “open” to reparations

The resolution stops short of calling for reparations for descendants of slaves, though Republican Gov. Charlie Crist said after the vote that he was open to the idea “if we can determine descendancy, certainly.”

Crist, who attended the floor vote, said, “Florida is sorry for the past transgressions and unfair treatment and in some cases just gross inequity as it exists toward members of the African-American community.”

Stuck in the past!

National tour featuring veterans of Iraq and Afghanistan “too political” for high school kids

Posted in The scurge of PC on March 25th, 2008 by gatordoug

Do I detect another case of Leftist censorship here?

A national tour featuring decorated veterans from the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan won’t be stopping at Forest Lake Area High School today as planned, after school leaders abruptly canceled the visit.

Steve Massey, the school principal, said the decision to cancel was prompted by concerns that the event was becoming political rather than educational and therefore was not suitable for a public school.

He said the school had received several phone calls from parents and others, some of whom indicated that they may stage a protest if the event took place.

Ah, so some anti-military nuts found out about this and could not stand for teens to hear facts directly from our brave vets. So, they whined and threatened protests in order to silence their opposition, and to censor dissenting views.

And, if you want to know which leftist weasels were behind this take a peek here

Politically correct “Sugar-Free school” backfires

Posted in News you can use, The scurge of PC on March 24th, 2008 by gatordoug

PC, is, to put it mildly, an affront to freedom and humannature. So, I love to read stories like this one

With candy sales banned on school campuses, sugar pushers are the latest trend at local schools. Backpacks are filled with Snickers and Twinkees for all sweet tooths willing to pay the price.

“It’s created a little underground economy, with businessmen selling everything from a pack of skittles to an energy drink,” said Jim Nason, principal at Hook Junior High School in Victorville.

This has become a lucrative business, Nason said, and those kids are walking around campus with upwards of $40 in their pockets and disrupting class to make a sale.

Schools have been individually banning junk-food sales for years, and enforcement was increased in 2005 when Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger passed legislation to combat childhood obesity, according to the office of the governor.

Anti-war nuts arrested for interrupting Easter mass

Posted in The scurge of PC on March 24th, 2008 by gatordoug

Ah, everything we have come to expect from these neo-Marxist thugs: Thuggish behavior, lack of respect for other people, and childish stunts that expose how morally retarded they really are.

Six people were arrested at Holy Name parish’s auditorium Sunday after disrupting an Easter mass to protest the Iraq war.

The group—whose female and male members identified themselves as Catholic Schoolgirls Against the War—stood up at the beginning of Cardinal Francis George’s homily and shouted their opposition to the conflict, which marked its fifth anniversary last week. As security guards and ushers tried to remove them from the service, the demonstrators squirted fake blood on themselves and parishioners dressed in their Easter finery.

The red substance, which one protester later described as “stage blood,” initially drew gasps and a few terrified yelps from the 600 worshipers at the mass. The shock, however, quickly transformed into anger as people booed the six while they were escorted from the parish auditorium.

Grow up and take a bath hippies!

UPDATE!  

Ed Morrissey warns that these protests are becoming increasingly violent

I warned people three weeks ago that the anti-war movement was going to start getting violent. Alan Colmes scoffed at the notion, but assaulting people sitting in church demonstrates that the fringe of the movement has no sense of boundaries, and their frustration at losing in the political process keeps growing. Instead of peacefully protesting outside the cathedral, which is their right to do, they insisted on breaking the law and conspiring to commit multiple acts of battery. This time, they used fake blood. How long before that won’t be enough, and they start trying to draw real blood instead?

And rest assured when they become more violent, and someone slaps the taste out of their mouth they will okay the “innocent, peaceful protester”

UPDATE! Gateway Pundit exposes the radical ties these protesers have

As usual, these “peace” prostester types have some ties to very dangerous ideologies.

Heartache for Gorezilla?

Posted in The scurge of PC on March 23rd, 2008 by gatordoug

Uh oh, it seems that some of the “facts” Al Gore and other climate change alarmists spread are, in fact, inconvenient

Last Monday - on ABC Radio National, of all places - there was a tipping point of a different kind in the debate on climate change. It was a remarkable interview involving the co-host of Counterpoint, Michael Duffy and Jennifer Marohasy, a biologist and senior fellow of Melbourne-based think tank the Institute of Public Affairs. Anyone in public life who takes a position on the greenhouse gas hypothesis will ignore it at their peril.

Duffy asked Marohasy: “Is the Earth stillwarming?”

She replied: “No, actually, there has been cooling, if you take 1998 as your point of reference. If you take 2002 as your point of reference, then temperatures have plateaued. This is certainly not what you’d expect if carbon dioxide is driving temperature because carbon dioxide levels have been increasing but temperatures have actually been coming down over the last 10 years.”

Duffy: “Is this a matter of any controversy?”

Marohasy: “Actually, no. The head of the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) has actually acknowledged it. He talks about the apparent plateau in temperatures so far this century. So he recognises that in this century, over the past eight years, temperatures have plateaued … This is not what you’d expect, as I said, because if carbon dioxide is driving temperature then you’d expect that, given carbon dioxide levels have been continuing to increase, temperatures should be going up … So (it’s) very unexpected, not something that’s being discussed. It should be being discussed, though, because it’s very significant.”

Tragedy! British prisons “too White” for al Qaeda prisoners

Posted in The scurge of PC, War on Terror on March 22nd, 2008 by gatordoug

Hmmm, terrorists get their asses kicked by other inmates, and it MUST BE racism. I mean it could not be that the other inmates despise terrorists could it?

Two of Britain’s most dangerous terrorists have been moved to different prisons after complaining their fellow inmates were “too white”.

Dhiren Barot and Omar Khyam asked to be transferred from high-security Frankland prison near Durham.

Barot masterminded a radioactive bomb plot involving limousines packed with nails and explosives and Khyam plotted to blow up Bluewater shopping centre in Kent.

They said they were at risk from other inmates - who are predominantly white - and claimed the environment was “dangerous” to ethnic minority prisoners. It is thought they had received death threats and attacks.

Although their requests were initially turned down, Barot, who is serving a minium of 30 years, has since been moved to Belmarsh in south-east London.

Personally, I think they should have left them in with the other inmates, let nature take its course!

Internet control? The latest Liberal bad idea!

Posted in MEDIA BIAS!, The scurge of PC on March 18th, 2008 by gatordoug

SHEESH! 

In the pre-Internet world of TV and newspapers, public comment wasn’t a problem. Broadcast news didn’t have any — aside from the weekly guest spot, usually some hapless civic association president reading from a prompter and staring terrified into the camera. Papers had their letters pages, but allowed only enough space for a few dozen a week, and they were generally written with care and were easy to prune for taste and diction.

Things were nicely under control.

Spoken like a true free-speech-loving-Liberal! The first step towards censoring objectionable Conservative speech!

Daily Kos nutjob: America needs to be invaded and occupied

Posted in The scurge of PC on March 17th, 2008 by gatordoug

Just when you think the Marxist starter-kits at the Daily Kos have reached the bottom of the Pit of Stupidity- They break out the shovels and commence to diggin’!

Unfortunately, America is at a point that to be able to really feel again, to regain that compassion, it needs to be invaded and occupied in the same way that we have invaded and occupied Iraq. Then there might be a greater chance that Americans will be more reluctant to accept the invasion of another country. Maybe seeing and feeling the same level of destruction that we have inflicted on Iraq, at least the American public will understand why invading another country is unconscionable except in the most dire circumstances - which means after that country has directly attacked the United States. And that has not happened since World War II.

Yikes! Did I say shovels? These fools have rented back hos! Diggin, deeper, and deeper.

Shocker! Anti-war nuts accuse Berkeley PD of abusive tactics

Posted in Culture, The scurge of PC on March 15th, 2008 by gatordoug

I call bullshit!

A series of protesters took the mic. One lamented “belligerent riot squads who use batons and arrests … to silence political speech.” Another claimed that “the Berkeley Police Department has committed acts of violence that … create a climate of fear.” Another described “a very marked escalation of hostility and physical violence on the part of the Berkeley Police Department” against people protesting “this disastrous, immoral, criminal war.”

Somehow, call me crazy here, but somehow I just do not buy this. Maybe it is the fact that these whoners will tell any lie as long as it supports their cause.

A Code Pink member described her group as “risking our lives” by protesting, because “there are people willing to kill to get what they want.”

Another claimed that the cops have done “everything they could to facilitate a right-wing hatefest.”

In tears, one man said that as he carried a World Can’t Wait sign at the February 12 rally in Civic Center Park, “the police … shoved me into the mud. One of the cops took my sign and stomped it into several pieces, inches from my head. … They stomped me hard in the chest,” he claimed amid gasps from the audience, which applauded after he described an emergency-room visit and a chest-wall-contusion diagnosis.

Sounds to me like this was nothing but a staged event for these miscreants to spew their propoganda.

Heartache! Liberal gets axed by same PC Liberals like her created!

Posted in Culture, Politics, Race Pimping, The scurge of PC on March 12th, 2008 by gatordoug

Ah, the sweet, sweet bliss of seeing the hypersensitivity Liberals have created biting them for a change. Today, one of the Left’s most “tolerant” figures BIT THE DUST because of “racist” remarks she made.

Geraldine Ferraro has stepped down from her role as a member of Hillary Clinton’s finance committee.

In a letter to Clinton obtained by CNN’s Suzanne Malveaux — who spoke with the former vice presidential candidate shortly after she sent it to Clinton — Ferraro said she is stepping down so, “I can speak for myself and you can continue to speak for yourself about what is at stake in this campaign.”

No, her remarks were not racist, and no she is not anywhere close to being a racist. But, she found out how the “tolerance” and “sensitivity” police she was part of operate! Lesson learned?

How much IS a pink poodle worth?

Posted in Culture, The scurge of PC on March 11th, 2008 by gatordoug

$1,000 fine for dying her poodle

Even in Boulder, there are some things that just aren’t cool.

Like coloring your poodle pink with beet juice to raise awareness of breast cancer.

Joy Douglas, owner of Zing Hair Salon at 1100 Spruce St., has received a $1,000 ticket from an animal-control officer for coloring her white poodle, Cici, pink by using organic beet juice.

“We do it to promote awareness of breast cancer,” said Douglas, 30, who has owned the large hair salon for three years. “Cici is a conversation piece. Customers come in and ask why the dog is pink. So we tell them about breast-cancer awareness, about the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, and then we ask for a donation.”

Ah, Boulder, a hotbed of Leftism, and BIG government!

Kentucky lawmaker wants to ban anonymous blog postings

Posted in Culture, News you can use, The scurge of PC on March 10th, 2008 by gatordoug

More RINOism

Rep. Tim Couch, R-Hyden, filed a bill that would require anyone posting on interactive Web sites to first register using their legal names, addresses and valid e-mail addresses. Couch, however, said he won’t push the bill — he just wants to draw attention to the growing presence of anonymous and often mean-spirited comments on Web sites.

“This is something the people back home wanted,” he said.

Couch said parents in his district who are concerned about anonymous postings on Web logs, or blogs, about their children approached him.

Jon Fleischaker, a Louisville attorney who represents the Kentucky Press Association, said such a law would be unconstitutional.

See, not ALL the big government ideas come from Democrats! Well, OK, 99% do, but some Republicans are idiots too!

Daily Kos moron: No evidence women have it tougher under Islamic law

Posted in Guns self-defense and liberty, The scurge of PC on March 9th, 2008 by gatordoug

The cluessness of Kossvile

In the United States, there’s now an almost universally held belief that most women in Islamic societies face wretched persecution and that Islam itself is wholly to blame. But there’s scant empirical evidence to support the claim — mostly, we’re treated to detailed reports of horrific abuses in theocratic states like Saudi Arabia and Iran, despite the fact that just six percent of the Muslim world live in those two countries. If you ask average Americans how they came to their beliefs about how badly women suffer in Islamic societies, most will reply that “everyone knows it.”

But I’ve seen no empirical data to suggest that an Islamic majority itself correlates with the subordination of women better than other co-variables like economic development, women’s ability to serve in government, a political culture that values the rule of law or access to higher education. In other words, you can use a comparison of women’s status in Saudi Arabia and Sweden to make an intellectually weak argument for Western superiority, but there’s little support for the notion that women living in “traditional” Islamic cultures enjoy a lower social status than those in orthodox Christian, Jewish or Hindu communities, to name a few examples. Think of the perfectly backwards Eastern Orthodox Church, the largest Christian communion in the world. Or consider the country where women may be brutalized more terribly than in any other, the Democratic Republic of Congo, which is 70 percent Christian and 10 percent Muslim. Or go to Utah, where tens of thousands of Mormon fundamentalists believe that women are literally the property of their fathers or husbands. Of course, Mormon fundamentalists are the exception that proves the endless benevolence and equality of the West, while whatever despicable caricature of justice perpetrated on a woman by the House of Saud is breathlessly recounted as emblematic of Islamic culture as a whole.

Comparing the “Muslim world” to the rest of the world poses an intellectual problem — how does one even look at the role of Islam in a society, specifically, rather than dozens of other variables that might influence women’s outcomes?

Yes folks, little Joshua IS that stupid.

Bush to veto waterboarding ban

Posted in The scurge of PC, Uncategorized, War on Terror on March 9th, 2008 by gatordoug

Heartache for terrorists and the Leftists who love them

Washington Compost

“The bill would take away one of the most valuable tools on the war on terror: the CIA program to detain and question key terrorist leaders and operatives,” White House spokesman Tony Fratto said yesterday.

Leftist outrage in 3,2,1…

Although long expected, Bush’s formal move to veto the bill reignites the Washington debate over the proper limits of the U.S. interrogation policies and whether the CIA has engaged in torture by subjecting prisoners to severe tactics, including waterboarding, a type of simulated drowning.

The whiners opposed to this tactic ought to study what torture REALLY is. Maybe take a look at North Korea, China, the old Soviet Union, study what those regimes did. Or, here is a nutty idea, they could study what the Jihadis do to people they kidnap. When they get an understanding of what torture is, they might drop their moral relevancy and understand that America is the GOOD SIDE.

But, more likely they will simply bury their heads in the sand a little deeper and keep blaming America first.

“Environmentally-friendly” Governor draws flak for carbon footprint

Posted in The scurge of PC, Uncategorized on March 9th, 2008 by gatordoug

LA Slimes

Like many of the Californians he represents, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger now spends more than three hours commuting because he lives so far from the office.

But his ride is a private jet.

After flirting briefly with buying a Sacramento abode for his family, then living alone for a while in a 2,000-square-foot hotel penthouse across from the Capitol, the governor has decided to stay nearly every night at his Brentwood mansion.

The commute costs hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, which aides say the governor pays for himself. Some environmentalists say the trips expand his carbon footprint enough to undermine his image as a crusader against global warming, despite the pollution credits he buys to offset the damage.

Personally, I do not care if the Governator flies the length of the state on a daily basis. But, this does point out the blatant hypocrisy of those who follow the religion of climate change. Al Gore, and others do more to damage “Mother Earth”, than the people they demonize for driving SUV’s, or using too much electricity. Another slice of classic Marxism. The “elites” do not have to obey the rules they wish to force upon the people.

Times Sqare bombing may be linked to Canadian border incident

Posted in Guns self-defense and liberty, The scurge of PC, Uncategorized, War on Terror on March 8th, 2008 by gatordoug

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23510711/

Nearly a full day after the explosion in Times Square, law enforcement officials said they had no suspects. WNBC.com has learned NYPD, Homeland Security and FBI officials are now revisiting an incident that occurred along the Canadian border last month, concerned there might be a possible connection to the Times Square explosion.

Four men trying to cross the border attempted to flee the checkpoint as Canadian officials tried to question them, investigators said.

Two of the men got away, officials said. The men left behind a backpack with photos of various New York City locations including Times Square, according to sources speaking on condition of anonymity. One of the photos included the military recruitment center, officials said. As a precaution, NYPD outreach officers last month went to various New York City businesses, including the Times Square military recruitment center, to investigate if there had been any specific threats. No threat information was known at the time, a law enforcement source said.

Hmmm, the plot thickens. I still keep going back to the fact that it was a recruiting center that was targeted. Michelle Malkin has an interesting and sobering look at the escalation in Leftist outrage towards recruiters http://michellemalkin.com…war-on-military-recruiters/
