No Apology Necessary. Duh!!!!

When are we going to get past this noxious notion that America is, or has been, uniquely evil in her history and that she needs to atone for her sins by grovelling to every group that isn't White, straight, and/or Christian? Yesterday the ditsy Dems in the House issued an official apology to Blacks for slavery and segregation, as if that was the most pressing issue facing our great country.

Forget sky high gas prices. Forget the refusal of Dems to let America drill for her own oil. Forget the war on terrorism. Forget mounting foreclosures. No, the one thing America must do is apologize for something that ended over 100 years ago. Without that mea culpa the country can't go on! Gimme a break!

Let me tell you atonement crazy, guilt ridden, libtard weirdos something. I wasn't a slave. My parents weren't slaves. My grandparents weren't slaves. My great-grandparents weren't slaves. My great-great-grandparents weren't slaves. To get to anyone in my family who MIGHT have been a slave you have to go back FIVE generations. I DON'T NEED YOUR F--KING APOLOGY!!!!

Representatives, Senators, get on with the nation's business, and that business is NOT apologizing for slavery. America was NOT the only country in the history of mankind to practice slavery, and Blacks are NOT the only people to ever be held as slaves. Slavery is a HUMAN sin, not a sin only of Whites, Christians, and/or Americans. If Blacks really cared about getting an apology for slavery, if it really meant something to them, why aren't they demanding one from the Arabs, who traded in African slaves for over a thousand years? Too bad no one in the House had the cajones to bring up that bit of inconvenient history.

This whole apologizing-for-slavery con is just that, a con, a way to stoke the fire of White guilt which is one of the engines driving the left's lust for big government. Making and keeping Whites feeling guilty works for the left because such Whites become so obsessed with assuaging their guilt that they forget about everything else. They'll support, excuse, ignore, justify, rationalize, and/or vote for ANYTHING in order to do penance for their (imagined) racial sins. What's right for the country takes a back seat to their desperate need to prove they're good Whites.

Well, I don't need any White person proving anything to me. If you treat me right you're kosher in my book. If you don't, you're an a**hole. Even if you're Black. Now go and do what's right for America...and put your racial manners textbook in the trash where it belongs.

Illegal Alien Population Down By 11%...

...now if we can only get the other 89% the hell out of our country!!!!!!

Obama The Messiah

I was going to write my own review of Obama's rock star world tour but then I heard an excellent review of the Golden Child's journey on The Mike Gallagher Show. This review, written by British journalist Gerard Butler, is a hilarious send up of the worship--yes, worship--that millions in Europe (and America) are giving to Obama. As a Stalinesque personality cult builds around the big O Butler's essay, funny as it is, should serve as a warning to all who are tempted to put their faith in this or any man.


He Ventured Forth To Bring Light To The World

by

Gerard Butler

And it came to pass, in the eight year of the reign of the evil Bush the Younger (The Ignorant), when the whole land from the Arabian desert to the shores of the Great Lakes had been laid barren, that a Child appeared in the wilderness. The Child was blessed in looks and intellect. Scion of a simple family, offspring of a miraculous union, grandson of a typical White person and an African peasant. And yea, as he grew, the Child walked in the path of righteousness, with only the occasional detour into the odd weed and a little blow.

When he was twelve years old they found him in the temple in the City of Chicago, arguing the finer points of community organisation with the Prophet Jeremiah and the Elders. And the Elders were astonished at what they heard and said among themselves: "Verily, who is this Child that he opens our hearts and minds to the audacity of hope?"

In the great Battles of Caucus and Primary he smote conniving Hillary, wife of the deposed King Bill the Priapic and their barbarian hordes of Working Class Whites.

And so it was, in the fullness of time, before the harvest month of the appointed year, the Child ventured forth--for the first time--to bring light unto all the world.

He travelled fleet of foot and light of camel, with a small retinue that consisted only of his loyal disciples of the tribe of the Media. He ventured first to the land of the Hindu Kush, where the Taleban had harbored the viper of al-Qaeda in their bosom, raining terror on all the world.

And the Child spake and the tribes of Nato immediately loosed the Caveats that had previously bound them. And in the great battle that ensued the forces of light were triumphant. For as long as the Child stood with his arms held aloft, the enemy suffered great blows and the threat of terror was no more.

From there he went forth to Mesopotamia where he was received by the great ruler al-Maliki and al-Maliki spake unto him and blessed his Sixteen Month Troop Withdrawal Plan even as the imperial warrior Petraeus tried to destroy it. And lo, in Mesopotamia a miracle occurred. Even though the Great Surge of Armor that the evil Bush had ordered had been a terrible mistake, a waste of vital military resources and doomed to end in disaster, the Child's very presence suddenly brought forth a great victory for the forces of light.

And the Persians, who saw all this and were greatly fearful, longed to speak with the Child and saw that the Child was the bringer of peace. At the mention of his name they quickly laid aside their intrigues and beat their uranium swords into civil nuclear energy ploughshares.

From there the Child went up to the city of Jerusalem, and entered through the gate seated on an ass. The crowd of network anchors who had followed him from afar cheered "Hosana" and waved palm fronds and strewed them at his feet.

In Jerusalem and in surrounding Palestine, the Child spake to the Hebrews and the Arabs, as the Scripture had foretold. And in an instant, the lion lay down with the lamb, and the Israelites and the Ishmaelites ended their long enmity and lived for ever after in peace.

As word spread througout the land about the Child's wondrous works, peoples from all over flocked to hear him; Hittites and Abbasids, Obamacons and McCainiacs, Cameroonians and Blairites.

And they told of strange and wondrous things that greeted the news of the Child's journey. Around the world, global temperatures began to decline, and the ocean levels fell, and the great warming was over. The Great Prophet Algore of Nobel and Oscar, who many had believed was the anointed one, smiled and told his followers that the Child was the one generations had been waiting for. And there were other wonderful signs.

In the city of the Street at the Wall, spreads on interbank interests rates dropped like manna from Heaven and rates on credit default swaps fell to the ground as dead birds from the almond tree, and the people who had lived in foreclosure were able to borrow again. Black gold gushed from the ground at prices well below $140 per barrel. In hospitals across the land the sick were cured even though they were uninsured. And all because the Child had pronounced it.

And this is the testimony of one who speaks the truth and bears witness to the truth so that you might believe. And he knows it is the truth for he saw it all on CNN and the BBC and in the pages of the New York Times.

Then the Child ventured forth from Israel and Palestine and stepped onto the shores of the Old Continent. In the land of Queen Angela of Merkel, vast multitudes gathered to hear his voice, and he preached to them at length. But when he had finished speaking his disciples told him the crowd was hungry, for they had had nothing to eat all the hours they had waited for him.

And so the Child told his disciples to fetch some food but all they had was five loaves and a couple of frankfurters. So he took the bread and the frankfurters and blessed them and told the disciples to feed the multitudes. And when all had eaten their fill, the scraps filled twelve baskets.

Thence he travelled west to Mount Sarkozy. Even the beauteous Princess Carla of the tribe of the Bruni was struck by awe and she was great in love with the Child, but he was tempted not.

On the seventh day he walked across the Channel of the Angles to the ancient land of the hooligans. There he was welcomed with open arms by the once great prophet Blair and his successor, Gordon the Leper, and his successor, David the Golden One. And suddenly, with the men appeared the archangel Gabriel and the whole host of the heavenly choir, cherubim and seraphim, all praising God and singing: "Yes, We Can."


Scary, huh?

Feeling Vindicated

Last night I saw a man on The Glenn Beck Show who made me feel really good. The man's name is Andrew Klavan and he's a conservative in Hollywood. Glenn Beck had Klavan on his show to promote his new novel "Empire of Lies", a political thriller with an evangelical Christian as the hero.

What I liked about Andrew Klavan was that he echoed an issue that weighs on my own heart; an issue that I feel too many conservatives still don't fully grasp the significance of. Klavan said that conservatives have lost the culture and that we have no one to blame but ourselves. He said the Left dominates the entertainment industry--publishing as well as Hollywood--because conservatives surrendered it to them without a fight. Oh, we complain loudly and righteously about the corruption coming out of Hollyweird, but we don't counter it with anything better. And we are often the people watching the stuff. Glenn Beck concurred, pointing out that the most popular tv show among professedly Christian women is "Desperate Housewives".

Klavan, who's worked with some big names in Hollywood, wrote his novel to try and change things. He said conservatives must start creating high quality art and entertainment that winsomely conveys our point of view. That's something I've been saying for a while; that's why I feel vindicated. I was beginning to think I was alone in my opinon. Most other conservatives are dogmatically committed to politics as the sole means of advancing our cause. They refuse to acknowledge that while we were winning elections and running the country the culture became more and more liberal. That's because liberals control the culture. Klavan understands that and is working to beat the liberals at their own game. I'm cheering for him, and I thank him for vindicating me.

Rest In Peace, Mr. Snow

When I got up this morning sad news greeted me when I turned on my computer. Tony Snow, journalist and former White House Press Secretary, died today of colon cancer. He was 53.

I was shocked and deeply saddened when I saw the headline on my computer screen. I thought Mr. Snow was winning his battle with cancer. The last time I saw him on tv he was upbeat and confident. He looked tired and older than his 53 years but he was cheerful and full of life. Now, only a few months later, he is gone.

I'm sure the fanatic, heartless, left-wing blogosphere will savage Mr. Snow in death as they did him in life. Snow was the target of some viscious posts on the Daily Kos and other liberal websites. His cancer diagnosis was celebrated and liberal bloggers gleefully wished for his death. And he wasn't the only conservative to be so treated by the "compassionate" left. It's time for decent people on all sides to reject such rabid hatred and remember that, no matter how strongly we may disagree with those on the other side they, too, are human beings whose suffering is no cause for celebration.

Robert Anthony "Tony" Snow was a bold, unapologetic conservative who served his country and his profession well. When faced with the worst that life can give you he responded with the best. He was always upbeat, always positive, always optimistic. And he will be sorely missed. Robert Anthony "Tony" Snow: June 1, 1955-July 12, 2008. Rest in peace and goodbye.

Foot In Mouth Disease

So, Jesse Jackson wants to cut Barack Obama's nuts off. While that idea has crossed my mind, too--just kidding!--I'm shocked at the crime that the dear Reverend feels warrants such drastic punishment. It seems that Obama, from Jackson's point of view, talked down to Blacks. How? By supporting Bush's faith-based social initiatives. The fiend! Well, if you ask me it's Jesse Jackson who needs HIS nuts cut off. He should've had them knifed before he fathered that illegitimate child with his young-enough-to-be-his-daughter mistress. The nerve of this guy!

And what's this idea that endorsing faith-based social programs is "talking down" to Blacks? Aren't Blacks supposed to be some of the most religious people in America? Why, then, would they have a kneejerk objection to church-based charities receiving some government funding? I mean, I can understand how some people might think that government money might have too many strings attached and could, consequently, hinder the Church's job of promoting the Gospel. That's a legitimate concern. But to say that Obama is talking down to Blacks by praising Bush's faith-based initiatives is downright delusional.

Jackson, the illegitimate daddy, was also upset with Obama "lecturing" Blacks on morality. Blacks faced more serious problems, Jackson opined, than paternal irresponsibility. Black men who father children and then walk away are just a symptom of the real problems facing Blacks, Jackson believes. This is a classic liberal view. Minorities behaving badly are not responsible for their actions but, rather, are victims of unjust "structures" forced on them by our racist, capitalist society. This view doesn't just provide an easy out for Jackson personally; it is the guiding principle of the entire leftist, civil rights establishment. And Jackson's attack on Obama shows just how intolerant of dissent that establishment is.

I am no Obama supporter. I'm a conservative who believes that Obama is a strident liberal now trying to pass himself off as a moderate. I believe his Father's Day speech on the need for paternal responsibility was part of that strategy. Still, Jackson's attack on Obama was terribly unfair. There IS an urgent need for more paternal responsibility in the Black community, which has an appalling illegitimacy rate. And liberal orthodoxy has no solution for that. Jackson and others like him should abandon their liberalism and return to preaching Biblical morality and values. Then a moral renewal could engulf the Black community and solve its most intractable problems. But then Jesse Jackson and gang would be out of a job, so we know that won't happen. Oh well, it was nice to dream about, if only for a second. And the abandon Black babies continue to cry.
