Asking illegals for documentation is bad.......

Asking illegals for documentation is bad.......
but patting down a mentally handicapped man is okay!
Only in Obama's world is it bad to check someones immigration status, but okay to search a mentally handicapped person or even a baby.

TSA Admits ‘Bad Judgment’ After Disabled Man Subjected to Airport Pat-Down

Published June 10, 2011

| FoxNews.com

Detroit – A Detroit father said agents with the Transportation Security Administration singled out his special-needs son for a pat-down while the family was headed to Disney World, MyFoxDetroit.com reported, an incident that the TSA admitted was a “case of bad judgment.”

David Mandy said agents at Detroit Metro Airport took his son Drew, 29, and asked him about the padding underneath his pants, which turned out to be adult diapers. Drew, who is severely mentally disabled, had trouble understanding the agents’ orders because his family said he has the mental capacity of a 2-year-old.

When the father tried to intervene and explain Drew’s disability, he said the two agents said, “Please, sir, we know what we’re doing.”

The agents confiscated a six-inch plastic hammer, something Drew had carried with him for 20 years for comfort. Agents called it a security threat, his father said, adding that they tapped the wall with it and said, “See, it’s hard. It could be used as a weapon.”

The family was told they’d have to ship the hammer if they wanted to keep it, David Mandy said.
“I understand they’re trying to keep people safe,” Mandy said told MyFoxDetroit.com. “But come on, does he look like a terrorist?”

In a statement to FoxNews.com, the TSA said it’s reviewing the incident but early findings indicate this was an “isolated case of bad judgment.” The TSA reached out to the Mandy family to apologize and said the man’s toy hammer should have never been confiscated.

Who wants to control people's lives?

http://babalublog.com/2011/03/npr-hgher-ed/

Some things just can't be said any better. Thanks to the Patriots over at Babalublog

by George Moneo in response to the claim by the now ex NPR exec that Conservatives want to control people's lives.

"So we conservatives want to control the lives of Americans? I have some questions for this boob:

• Who wants to control what you eat?
• Who wants to control what legal tobacco products you use?
• Who wants to control your firearms?
• Who wants to control what you hear on the radio?
• Who wants to control what you see on TV?
• Who wants to control what you see on the Internet?
• Who wants to control how you get your health care?
• Who wants to control how the local communities handle their citizen's business?
• Who wants to control how you spend your money by imposing higher and higher taxes and fees?

Liberals have a "higher education" and they can't even ask these simple questions?
Look, real conservatives want to leave you alone and want to be left alone. Period. We want to live our lives with the least amount of oversight and interference, just as the founders intended. The next time a liberal or progressive throws out the canard that we want to control lives because of some nebulous "Christian" agenda, just laugh in their face and read them this list. Their lies and their socialist fantasies are beyond parody. "

Racism is Okay.... If you are a liberal that is

It seems that example after example of liberal racism seems to slip through the MSM cracks. The left never wanted blacks freed. They only wanted a relocation to a different plantation. The black man in America is tolerated by the left as long as they walk lock step. Once they do not, they are attacked as the video shows. Make a note of the racist comment when the union thug asks the conservative black man if he has any children that he claims. Does this fall under vitriolic? Oh I forgot, a black man is a man as long as he is liberal. If he is a Conservative the left feels free to treat him like an animal.

Or here is another example of Union thugs putting the black man in what they consider his place

Liberal Hypocrisy - The MSM is only against SOME Dictators

It seems that the MSM picks and chooses which dictators they love, and which they hate. Its not that they hate all dictators, as some are more lovable than others to them. Some serve their purpose of promoting Islam, Socialism, etc. These past few weeks the liberal MSM has bashed Mubarak and others as evil long standing dictators. They have highlighted beatings of civilians, incarcerations of dissidents, and even murders performed by these regimes. It would seem that if they are truly against these things, then they would be even handed. But that is not the case. In Cuba, CNN has a bureau whereby they walk lock step with the regime and would not risk losing that for reporting inconvenient truths. Egypt was under the repressive dictatorship of Mubarak for 30 years, yet Cuba has been under Castro's for 52 years. In Libya some 200 have been murdered, yet in Cuba thousands on a regular basis. In Iran, dozens are arrested as political dissidents, in Cuba hundreds every month. Today marks the one year anniversary of the death of peaceful dissident Orlando Zapata Tamayo. This week also marks the anniversary of the shoot down over international waters of the Brothers to the Rescue. There are reports from Cuba of mass arrests in an effort to quell a possible peaceful uprising. But do we hear any of this from the MSM? Of course not. Cuba is the MSM's failed socialist laboratory experiment, and it is an inconvenient truth to report. For 52 years the liberal MSM has created, and sustained,  the failed socialist experiment of Cuba, and they would just assume ignore it as long as possible, as it is a sneak preview of what awaits America should our present course not change. The MSM, as well as the present administration ,will be silent and many brave Cubans will suffer at the hands of a dictator who CNN refers to as "president".  No news here they will say, now move along. But as it is with all truth, ignoring it will not make it go away. History will condemn the MSM, and those that do not choose to be part of the solution, but rather choose to be part of the problem. There is Cuban blood on the hands of the MSM.
Below is a memorial to the brave dissident known as Orlando Zapata Tamayo. Viva Cuba Libre! Cuba will remember who helped repress them and who helped free them.

Unions React to Taking Less From The Teat

Below is some contact info from Gayle Mahon. It would seem that, as I said many years ago, that those on entitlements would rebel if their entitlements were touched. Now the Unions feel that they should live better than those who pay them. They feel that they deserve more than the average Americans. They are insulted to have to pay what most of us have to pay. After all, isn't that why they sold their souls to the DNC? Wasn't the DNC as well as Obama supposed to protect them from reality? Well the chickens have come home to roost and the teat has run dry. Now they say they do not care about their state or their country. What matters is them. Added to that, Obama now feels that he must bash the states for daring to attempt to be fiscally responsible. It seems that Obama would be better served fixing his Federal mess rather than butt into the business of the states. Can you imagine the bloodshed in the streets if we ever take people off the welfare and food stamp teats? Its just a matter of time folks. Things are going to get really ugly.

Is Obama getting rich off of oil prices?

The obvious answer is no, but wasn't that the media outcry when President Bush was in office? I remember the cries of "Bush is getting rich off of high gas prices". The screams that we are in Afghanistan and Iraq because of oil and Halliburton. How bad the economy will now struggle because gas is so high. But did you hear that? If not its because there is nothing being said. Where are the protesters, Code Pink, and the other leftists groups that could not stop complaining about the very things that exist today.
OOPS! I forgot, its okay because its Obama. Have you seen any pictures of Gitmo lately? How about any casket photos of fallen soldiers? Remember the court orders to make them public?
During this hypocritic phase of the DNC and the MSM, lets remember all that before we belly up as they wish.
I recently found the liberal definition of civility: Don't use the control you were elected to use and do whatever we want.
I for one do not want my Conservative leadership buying that. How about you?

So What's The Big Deal?

So what’s the big deal? It depends who is wanting to make it a big deal

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2011/01/18/new-ala-gov-just-christians-family/?test=latestnews

Let me post the first four sections for starters.

“BIRMINGHAM, Ala. –  Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley told a church crowd just moments into his new administration that those who have not accepted Jesus as their savior are not his brothers and sisters, shocking some critics who questioned Tuesday whether he can be fair to non-Christians.

"Anybody here today who has not accepted Jesus Christ as their savior, I'm telling you, you're not my brother and you're not my sister, and I want to be your brother," Bentley said Monday, his inauguration day, according to The Birmingham News.”

Is what he said wrong? Let’s check with the Bible:

Matthew 12: 46 “While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him. Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. But he answered and said unto him that told him, Who is my mother? and who are my brethren?  And he stretched forth his hand toward his disciples, and said, Behold my mother and my brethren!  For whosoever shall do the will of my Father which is in heaven, the same is my brother, and sister, and mother.”

It seems that he is spot on. So what is the issue ? Is it what he said? Is it where he said it? If so then perhaps you should reread the where. It was a “church crowd” at a Martin Luther King Day Memorial Service. Or is the issue that some have an agenda? Such as the so-call “Anti-Defamation” League?

“The Anti-Defamation League on Tuesday called Bentley's remarks shocking."

"His comments are not only offensive, but also raise serious questions as to whether non-Christians can expect to receive equal treatment during his tenure as governor," said Bill Nigut, the ADL's regional director.”

So then does this not raise the question whether a non-Christian will represent Christians properly? Will Christians receive “equal treatment” during the tenure of let’s say, an Atheist or a Muslim?

It looks like the media as usual is trying to make a story. It took five paragraphs/sections into the story before the context of his comments were made clear.

But as usual the hypocrisy of the left, as well as their strange bedfellows, comes shining through:

“Ashfaq Taufique, president of the Birmingham Islamic Society, told The Birmingham News he wasn't sure how Bentley's remarks were intended.”

If he is not sure how the remarks were intended, how is it that he makes the following assumptions?

"Does it mean that those who according to him are not saved are less important than those who are saved?" Taufique said. "Does he want those of us who do not belong to the Christian faith to adopt his faith? That should be toned down. That's not what we need. If he means that, I hope he changes it. We don't want evangelical politicians. They can be whatever in their private life."

This coming from the religion of hate? Islam, which in the majority of countries that it controls, politically forbids by law proselytizing a Muslim to Christianity. The irony of his comments would almost be funny if they were not so real. Islam, the most repressive religion today, and he dares try to subtly dictate what a Christian is allowed to speak in a private Church meeting? He needs to be reminded that this isn’t the Mid-east!

……."If he does so, he is dancing dangerously close to a violation of the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which forbids government from promoting the establishment of any religion," Nigut said.

I dare say that Mr. Nigut did not read the rest of the Amendment that contains that phrase. Let me help out:

“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

But I am sure that this was just an innocent oversight on the part of Mr. Nigut. Now the rest of the story…

“Speaking at Dexter Avenue King Memorial Church after the official inaugural ceremony, Bentley told the crowd that he considered anyone who believed in Jesus to be his brothers and sisters regardless of color, but anyone who isn't a Christian doesn't have that same relationship to him.”

As we discussed this is a doctrinal truth.

"If the Holy Spirit lives in you that makes you my brothers and sisters. Anyone who has not accepted Jesus, I want to be your brothers and sisters, too," Bentley said……

An appropriate statement in a church as well as being doctrinally correct. This is, or should be said in any Bible believing Church with regularity. Its called salvation, it is what Christianity is all about.

"The governor clearly stated that he will be the governor of all Alabamians — Democrat, Republican and Independent, young, old, black and white, rich and poor. As stated in his (inaugural) address, Gov. Bentley believes his job is to make everyone's lives better," the statement said.”

I guess the last paragraph does not help the media’s feeding frenzy. Silly Christians, if Bentley were a Muslim he would have just killed someone, and that would have been accepted by the media. We read about it all the time. It seems that the only religion that wishes to “co-exist” peacefully are the Christians. All others define “co-existing” by bashing Christian’s freedoms. On that subject, I get a kick out of the “co-exist” bumper stickers. You would get killed for having one in a Muslim country.

Liberals Politicizing Tragedies

Leave it to the left to not miss an opening when they can find one, or rather make one. Fortunately, polls show that the majority of Americans reject the notion that any political party, group, radio, or print media was to blame for the senseless crime committed this past week. It seems the left keeps doing us a favor by showing America to what extent their desperation and lust for power will take them. As a matter of fact, we recently learned that the shooter was a registered Independent, into the occult, and volunteered at an animal shelter. If anything, he more resembles the Liberal left more than anything else. But that is neither here nor there. Once again the “Progressives” are trailblazing to new lows, I guess that’s why they consider themselves “progressive”. A little girl as well as 5 others is dead and all they can do is build hatred through their mindless rhetoric.

Based on their latest fallacy of blaming the “political climate”, they may be opening a Pandora’s Box that could end up backfiring on them.  Michelle Malkin wrote a tremendous piece documenting the vicious and cruel “political climate” created and fed by the “Progressives”. Democrat Pima County Sherriff Dupnik decided to politicize the tragedy, and hopefully enough Arizonans will now see fit to remove him from office. Yesterday I watched as Katie Couric began her backpedalling from directly connecting the tragedy to a single group, but began playing the new card that we must use the opportunity to step back and rethink the political climate. I find it odd that the many people that Michelle Malkin called out have not been called out by the “progressives” nor did they think the “political climate” was bad when they were in power.

Where was the outcry when people wished death on President Bush? Where was the outcry when two homosexuals hung an effigy of Sarah Palin in San Francisco? Where was the outcry when Kathy Griffins said that the youngest Palin was her new “target”? How many times did the “progressives” say that they wished certain Conservatives would go hunting with Dick Cheney after the hunting mishap? I guess that political climate is different from the present one, or is it that they feel that taking advantage of this tragedy is politically expedient?

This brings us to dealing with the present fallacy that the “progressives” have set forth. Their claim, as we said, is that the “political climate” has created this. Rush Limbaugh, Michelle Malkin, and countless others have supplied me with some ample responses to these “progressives”. Rush aptly commented if perhaps it was a Muslim if we would be using the same rhetoric. So based on the rhetoric of the “progressives” I have a fictitious response.

If indeed the “political climate” has caused this then the “progressives” are in a pickle as we can establish that life will imitate what it sees. If indeed certain radio personalities and groups can influence these actions, and the solution that the “progressives” set forth is to silence and remove them, then we must do the following.

·         Close down Hollywood due to their violent and mean spirited movies that glorify violence

·         Not allow any more Rap music to be produced due to its violent nature

·         Outlaw Islam based on the many similar crimes that are committed in the name of their group

·         Deport all Mexicans due to the violence in Mexico

·         Take Chris Matthews and his ilk off the air due to their divisive comments

·         Remove the liberal media from the air as they constantly criticize the Right and we all know how criticism incites violence

·         Remove spoons from America as people keep getting fat from using them (Hat Tip to Kim)

·         Remove any overweight entertainers and athletes as they glorify obesity

·         Prosecute the DNC for the assassination attempts of Presidents Reagan and Ford as we all know that it must have been politically motivated

·         Pardon Lee Harvey Oswald for the assassination of President Kennedy as he is not to blame as he was made to do it due to the political environment

·         Prosecute any Hollywood actors who have ever depicted violence in their roles

·         Restitution from Hollywood to all victims of violent crime due to Hollywood’s glorification of violence

·         Punish the African American community for having such divisive things as Negro Leagues Museum, Miss Black America, Congressional Black Caucus, Historically Black Colleges, and other organizations that divide rather than unite

·         Profile any African American due to the number of African Americans in street gangs

·         Profile all Hollywood actors due to the known drug use by some

·         Outlaw any and all drinking of alcoholic beverages due to drunk drivers

So “progressives” is this what you really want? Perhaps it really is. They now feel that using such bad words as “socialism” and “communism” is divisive as well. So will we rewrite the history books much like Tom Sawyer is being rewritten? What will be called the former “communist” Soviet Union or “communist” China, redistributors of wealth? Why do progressives that embrace socialism reject being called socialists? Is it really the fact that we are calling a shoe a shoe that bothers them, or is it the fact that the shoe fits?

This strategy on the part of the “progressives” of using tragedies to advance their cause is not a new one. It has been used for centuries by other repressive parties and governments. Their strategy is to try to silence any opposition in the name of peace, when in fact they are the ones generating the greatest violence. It was President Obama that said that he (as the left) will bring a gun to a knife fight. Is this the Hope and Change that he promised? Now is not the time to shrivel up and play the “progressive’s” game. Sadly even some on the right are buying into their fallacy. Freedom of Speech requires two key ingredients. Those ingredients are freedom and speech. It is funny how the “progressives” hate the combination of the two. The only thing the left sees now is that we on the right are in a position to undo much of the bad which they have done and that bothers them. It bothers them to the extent that they are playing games with a tragedy that took the life of an innocent child who is now nothing more than a toy in the game of politics to the “progressives”.

The reality is that the greatest danger of violence is from the “progressives”. It is they who are threatening to take to the streets. So perhaps the greatest solution would be to outlaw “progressives”.

Fallacy

Updated 1/10/2011

http://michellemalkin.com/2011/01/10/the-progressive-climate-of-hate-an-illustrated-primer-2000-2010/


Michelle Malkin says it like no other. There are a few off color examples used so forgive me for that. But her examples show the sheer hypocrisy of the proaganda producing left.



“In logic and rhetoric, a fallacy is incorrect reasoning in argumentation resulting in a misconception. By accident or design, fallacies may exploit emotional triggers in the listener or interlocutor (e.g. appeal to emotion), or take advantage of social relationships between people (e.g. argument from authority). Fallacious arguments are often structured using rhetorical patterns that obscure the logical argument, making fallacies more difficult to diagnose.”
From Wikipedia

The tragic shooting in Arizona has brought out the worst in many liberals. While the taking of any life should be considered horrible, some have chosen to attempt to make political hay out of the tragedy. In their unbridled zeal,they have overlooked facts in order to set forth their fallacies. They have focused on the congresswoman’s political affiliation in order to attempt to create a false association between this criminal and their political enemies.
While the wounded congresswoman is indeed a Democrat, she is anything but far left. She is pro-gun and against illegal immigration. I guess that doesn’t sit well in their propaganda. But what of the judge, the judge who was murdered was a Republican appointee, yet that is not making the headlines. Tragically overlooked as well, is the murder of a little girl, as well as several others murdered, and many others wounded. But I suppose that is all just insignificant in the tin foil leftist’s agenda. Their focus is in creating the hatred of which they attempt to claim is the cause of this tragedy.
But let us focus on their fallacy. They claim that because she was a Democrat she was targeted by “right wing extremists”. I thought about this and came up with an interesting fallacy of my own. Based on the left’s logic, we now need to revisit the attempted assassination of President Reagan. Being that President Reagan was a Conservative Republican we must assume that Mr. Hinckley was an agent of the DNC. After all, if someone attacks someone from a certain party then based on tin foil liberal logic the opposing party is responsible. His infatuation with Jodie Foster was just a cover-up. We can also blame the liberal media elite of the day much like the leftists are blaming Rush Limbaugh. Therefore we must blame Peter Jennings, Barbara Walters, Ted Koppel, Dan Rather, and the many others who openly criticized President Reagan.
Obviously I have being facetious about my theory, but am using it to show how ridiculous the left is. Sadly, this smells of typical leftist propaganda that has been used in so many other countries. The definition at the top of the page speaks volumes of their motives. Their motive is to trigger emotional rather than rational responses. In reality if there is anyone to blame outside of the deranged individual who performed this crime it may well be the liberal media and politicians which have chosen to stir up bitterness through class envy and lies.
Sadly the real tragedy will be overshadowed. A little girl and others are dead and all the left can do is play games with a tragedy. This is what the left has to offer?
