Apparently not satisfied with the emergency powers given to him by his handpicked legislature, Venezuela's communist dictator Hugo Chavez moved Sunday to silence all dissent by closing the only independent national tv station left in the country. But to the surprise of the tyrant and the delight of freedom lovers every where, the Venezuelan people instantly rose up against this blatant act of tyranny.
All over the country Venezuelans from all walks of life took to the streets to oppose dictatorship and demand democracy. According to the last news cast I watched, at least one protestor for freedom had been killed. This did not stop the protests, though. Sickened by their country's slide into socialist autocracy, Venezuelans are determined that Hugo Chavez hear their voices. They are loudly speaking truth to his communist power.
The only place there was silence about Chavez's dictatorial act was Hollywood. Never at a loss for words when it comes to trashing America, Tinseltown's communist sympathizing A-listers were tight-lipped on Hugo's latest move. Apparently not wanting to jeapordize his multi-million dollar movie deal with Hugo, Danny Glover couldn't be reached for comment on his friend's actions. Chevy "Socialism works" Chase didn't have time to explain if shutting down opposition media is what he meant by socialism working. Oliver Stone, Michael Moore, and Steven Spielberg were conveniently unavailable. Rosie O'Donnell was holed up in her multi-million dollar home writing nasty blogs against Elizabeth Hasselbeck, and Sean Penn was too busy blaming America for suicide bombings in Iraq to even notice what happened in Venezuela. If only the Maliki government had shut down an oppositon tv station! Then we could hear the Hollywood Left's make-your-flesh-crawl screeching that we know so well.
Hollywood liberals' deafening silence in the face of Chavez's blatant and indefensible act of tyranny actually speaks volumes about their true beliefs and values, and their utter disconnect from reality. Having spent the last six years trying to make a tyrant out of George W. Bush, they've completely lost the ability, even the desire, to recognize and condemn real tyrants. And they think that makes them intellectually brillant, not to mention morally superior. Meanwhile, the truly morally superior folks are marching against dictatorship in the streets of Venezuela. They have my heartfelt support and Hollywood has my heartfelt contempt.
"The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left." Eccl. 10:2, NIV. God has spoken. To the right is wisdom, honor, strength, and truth. To the left is...not. I know which way my heart leans. How about yours?

Immigration Fraud
Like all Americans I've been listening to the "debate" on the Senate's new immigration reform bill and I'm sick of it, the bill, not the debate. Our great and wise "leaders" in Washington must think we, the American people, are SOS: stuck on stupid. HOW DARE THEY TRY TO FOIST THIS FRAUD ON US AGAIN!!!!!!!!! The current bill is just a rehashing of the 1986 bill which promised enforcement but delivered hordes of more illegals into our country, which was probably the bill's real intent.
When it comes to illegal immigration I no longer trust any mainstream politician except for Tom Tancredo. All the rest have sold out America's sovereignty in order to please and appease illegal aliens (IAs) and their pseudo-American enablers and to establish their "anti-racist" credentials, which means way more to them than patriotism. They have, in fact, ceased to be Americans, revealing with every move they make that they are now post-Americans more committed to the world than to the USA. Blame America First is their guiding principle and they follow it religiously, making sure that only America, and never IAs themselves, are faulted for illegal immigration.
The complete and utter contempt these politicians show for the feelings and wishes of the Americans who elected them is staggering. I cannot grasp how they sleep at night. We, the American people, don't want foreign nationals breaking into our country like thieves in the night and then getting rewarded for it, period. We elected certain people to office to stop this invasion and instead they've joined it. Their ears are cocked only toward the anti-American, pro-IA special interest groups and are stone deaf to the American electorate, which has no special interest group looking out for it.
I can only pray that this latest immigration monstrosity will be shot down like the fraud that it is. I, and all real Americans, want America's borders defended, her culture protected, and her laws respected. That doesn't make us racist or heartless; it makes us patriotic, and it makes us sane.

Where Have All The Heroes Gone?
While watching The O'Reilly Factor and the Glenn Beck Show last night I saw something very disturbing. Both programs aired video of a 20 something thug beating a 91-year-old WWII veteran to a pulp and then stealing his car. And what was even worse was that there were several people, apparently all men, just standing around watching the crime take place. Not one of them tried to help the defenseless vet.
I was sickened when I saw this. How could those people just mill around while an elderly person was being carjacked and beaten in broad daylight? Sure, they might have feared for their own safety, but the definition of a hero is someone who helps someone else regardless of his own safety. Obviously, there are no heroes left in America anymore. The victim of this brutal crime is among the last of a nearly dead breed: the Greatest Generation that had grit and character and saved this country from fascism only to see, in their waning years, the complete moral collapse of the society they fought so bravely to defend. What a sad way to end their days.
Where have all the heroes gone? Like the old soldiers, they've faded away...or they've been beaten into oblivion by Gen X thugs too lazy and greedy to work for a living. And I fear for the future of America.
