Big Journalism : In Memoriam: Andrew Breitbart (1969-2012)

Thu, 1 Mar 2012 14:24:59 +0000

"Rumors of my death have been greatly exaggerated"? I pray it is so. A test of the lamestream media's failure to investigate and report facts? If true, prayers for the Breitbart family. And for America, who has lost a fearless warrior tirelessly fighting for true freedom.

Smoke Break : May 5th Is Not An American Holiday

Although we are glad you agree that illegality has no place at the American table and we support your right to voice your opinion, we do not agree with kicking out all Hispanics and/or Mexicans because of the bad actions of a few, even when those bad actions are apparently supported by some of the politicians. America has always welcomed those from other countries and when they come here through legal channels and properly pledge their allegiance to America, we here will continue to respect their rights as legal citizens.

Smoke Break : Pay Your Neighbor's Mortgage, Pay For Their Abortion, Too

Sun, 13 Dec 2009 16:12:57 +0000

Yo, Sunshine. Let me first thank affirmative action for allowing you to demonstrate for the world that your English skills never reached the mandatory level of 8th grade required for high school graduation but they passed you anyway. I have just three words for you: READ THE AMENDMENT. I know it\\\'s easier to just shoot your mouth based on what you think other liberals have told you, but if you\\\'d done your research first you would know that it contains the same provisions in place today for cases of rape, incest, or danger to the life of the mother. Otherwise, it\\\'s a choice no one else should have to pay for. As for aborting a baby because it\\\'s going to have problems or be less intelligent, well, your mama didn\\\'t choose to abort you, now, did she?

Smoke Break : Arguing For The Stupak Amendment In Plain English

Sun, 15 Nov 2009 23:10:14 +0000

Well, well, the Kool-Aid kids have come to demonstrate their lack of reading comprehension skills. Rather makes me rethink my position here, but I digress. Listen carefully, sunshine. Crimes, particularly violent crimes, are normally reported and in those cases, if pregnancy is a concern, there are things like the \\\"morning after pill\\\" to prevent development of a fetus. Waiting months to report a violent crime isn\\\'t wise, though I am well aware there are some too afraid to report something like rape or incest right away, so the Stupak amendment does, rightfully, cover such situations.

Smoke Break : The Fight Is Against Cowards

Sat, 8 Aug 2009 23:55:24 +0000

If it walks like a duck, and it quacks like a duck, it ain\\\'t a cow. Like most liberals, you present no facts to back up your accusations that the people who are attending townhalls are stupid, nor for your support for the false accusations that they\\\'re somehow doing the bidding of some Big Bad Business Entity. When you resort to criticizing sentence structure, that\\\'s when you lose me. It\\\'s quite obvious you don\\\'t want to know what\\\'s happening, or you fully support the government controlling every aspect of your life. Either way, we don\\\'t pay for server space so liberals have yet another forum to bash conservatives, so I\\\'ll leave you to find other conservatives to harrass. Have a great day.

I spoke of tactics, you answered with the reasons they were used. Apples and oranges. Now is merely the mirror image (i.e. reversed) of then. What is not different is that they are being used for the same reason. To gain power and control over the populace. And so, tellingly, you did not answer the most important question, and that is: what gives the United States federal government the right to use our tax dollars to fund protestors sent to counter the free speech of its citizens?

Smoke Break : The Fight Is Against Cowards

The average American is starting to see clearly that their Congress critters aren\\\'t listening to them about ANYTHING. Even intelligent and pointed questions are answered with spin, and it is perfectly normal and proper for people in a free country to voice their disapproval at such tactics. For most of them, it is the first time they\\\'ve experienced the b.s. face-to-face and they are, frankly, appalled. Not that it excuses rudeness, but the SEIU and ACORN members ordered to attend and disrupt are certainly not blameless. As far as manipulation, just who do you think is paying for those ACORN members to show up and \\\"protest\\\"? It\\\'s your tax dollars at work, courtesy of stimulus funds. So the question then becomes: is it fair for the government to send people to protest against citizen protestors? The majority of Americans who have health insurance want to keep it. They disapprove of Congress\\\' plan to take it away from them, and anyone who has read the bill(s) sees \\\"no choice\\\" spelled out clearly. They disagree with the government dictating their medical care, though most think some sort of insurance reform and even tort reform are in order. And they disagree that the 1% of Americans who pay MORE in taxes than all of the other 95% of taxpayers combined - that 1% being an amount that has doubled since WWII - should continue to foot the bill and to pay for things like federally funded abortions and health care for illegal immigrants (criminals) because when those people find themselves over-taxed, there will be no more businesses and therefore no more jobs at all. As for the history of protest, don\\\'t blame Karl Rove. Look back to the tactics used in Germany and Italy before WWII, and more recently the tactics penned by Saul Alinsky and taught and used in his continuing campaign by Barack Obama.

Well, it\\\'s not difficult to argue with this comment. It\\\'s being given to those who have taken it upon themselves to open their eyes, look around, actually read the bills being proposed and voted upon, and have come to the logical conclusion that the Emperor is buck-naked. And it ain\\\'t a pretty sight. Now the very people who villified George Bush are seeing their own tactics coming back around to haunt them and claiming foul. It would be funny if it wasn\\\'t so pathetic. But have no fear. We surround you. And we\\\'ll continue to fight for your right to make a fool of yourself in public.

Smoke Break : HR 3200: A Deadly Swamp Of Socialized Medicine

Fri, 7 Aug 2009 02:36:35 +0000

cgl, I believe this is the part that answers your question (HR 3200, page 173): SEC. 59B. TAX ON INDIVIDUALS WITHOUT ACCEPTABLE HEALTH CARE COVERAGE. c) EXCEPTIONS. (d) ACCEPTABLE COVERAGE REQUIREMENT (2) ACCEPTABLE COVERAGE.—For purposes of this section, the term ‘acceptable coverage’ means any of the following: (G) OTHER COVERAGE.—Such other health benefits coverage as the Secretary, in coordination with the Health Choices Commissioner, recognizes for purposes of this subsection. This means that the Secretary can recognize whatever plan Congress wants as being \\\"acceptable coverage\\\" and that\\\'s the end of the discussion. I haven\\\'t yet had time to really look at all the amendments so there may be something more clear in them (but I really doubt it).

Thu, 6 Aug 2009 20:37:50 +0000

There isn\\\'t anything in the bill that requires Congress to use any public or government-supplied option. Any discussion of that was done through amendments submitted by several folks, and each one of them was shot down by votes along party lines. Bottom line: Democrats don\\\'t want it, and neither to some Republicans so don\\\'t hold your breath waiting for it to be included anywhere.

Glenn Beck - The 912 Project : Vent through 7/9

The big picture is that McDonald's is lending what you see as their good name and monies to an organization that is demanding health care reform include coverage for 22+ million illegal immigrants. La Raza is demanding that YOUR tax money pay for pre-meditated CRIMINALS. And they are going to make sure that little fact isn't made obvious. That is so far to left wrong it isn't funny. If cutting into McD's profits causes them to see the error of their ways, so be it. They make a choice, they reap the consequences. And THAT is the beauty of a FREE country.

Don't just sit there, DO NOTHING! But while you're doing it, make sure you tell them why: http://tinyurl.com/qysgh6 Now, in all fairness, McD's does seem to use its PAC monies to "spread the wealth" in their campaign contributions, however, a national boycott of them because of their bad business decision to sponsor the La Raza annual conference later this month will send a very loud message to ALL big corporations that we, the people, are tired of the hypocrisy and criminal intentions of those in government. Hypocrisy and criminal intentions that are encouraged by big corporations and we're just not going to take it any more. (Details on the La Raza problem can be read here: http://tinyurl.com/mref9n ) Go to the link. Share the link. Spread the word. It's legal. It's fair. And it will be effective if we give it enough momentum.

No. But the beauty of a free market economy is that we have far more influence than most people think. All you have to do is nothing. And let them know why. When its their profits talking, they will listen. http://tinyurl.com/qysgh6

If that is how McDonald's now chooses to spend its corporate earnings, then it is time for American patriots to boycott them. Vote with your dollars because La Raza is working with Senator Menendez on "health care reform". The kind of reform that will add the 22+ million illegal immigrants to the nationalized health care system. Details: http://smokebreak.blogshevik.com/2009/07/01/healt...
