Conservative Victory 2012 : Democrat Virginia Congressman: Veterans “Unqualified to Serve” in Congress

Wed, 31 Oct 2012 13:21:15 +0000

Except...he never said that. Did anyone even bother to watch the video? Someone please ID where in it he says anything close to vets being unqualified to serve in Congress. What I did hear him say was that he honored his opponent's service but criticized the fact that in a decade since retiring from the military he hadn't been involved in his community and had not even bothered to vote. People tagging headlines on videos assuming most people won't actually watch to see what's really said. Sadly they're apparently right.

Breitbart.tv : Obama's Birth Control Mandate Angers Church Leaders

Mon, 30 Jan 2012 20:19:40 +0000

I am Catholic myself, and not one Catholic is forced to use birth control pills just because they are a covered item under an insurance plan. The insurance plan is part of the salary/benefits package, and one could just as easily argue that the Church should be able to keep its employees from using "the church's money" paid as their salary to buy things that are against church law.

Electric cars run on power that comes from wind, solar, hydroelectric dams, nuclear, coal, natual gas...all that we have an abundance of in America. Yet Fox News (part Saudi owned) and the GOP (owned by big oil) want to do everything they can to keep us using oil that we buy from countries that hate America and then use our money to fund terrorism against us. Why do the Republicans hate America?

What the Republicans in Congress have wasted their time on: 1.Symbolically read the constitution, skipped parts of it, and also read part of the Declaration of Independence, while still claiming to be reading the constitution. 2. 2 Congressman swore themselves in by watching the swearing-in ceremony on TV, without actually attending. They later had to be sworn in again, and 2 of their votes were deemed invalid since they had not been properly sworn in. 3.“Symbolically” voted to repeal the healthcare bill. Spent hours debating it beforehand, even though they knew it was purely symbolic and would not become law. 4.Attempting to de-fund Global Warming research. 5.Attempting to defund healthcare, which is also mostly symbolic. 6.Proposed a budget that would cut billions of dollars in aid to the poor, the homeless, and women and children. 7.Extended the Patriot Act. 8.Attempted to cut all funding for Planned Parenthood and PBS. 9.Attempted to redefine rape to no longer include statutory rape, incest rape, or drugged rape. 10.Cut Pell Grants

FOX News Radio - News,Politics,Economy : Obama Administration Rejects Pipeline Project

Thu, 19 Jan 2012 00:46:41 +0000

This pipeline goes from Canada to the Gulf of Mexico so the oil can be loaded on to tanker ships for the international market. Little if any of the oil would benefit the USA. According to presentations to investors, Gulf Coast refiners plan to refine the cheap Canadian crude supplied by the pipeline into diesel and other products for export to Europe and Latin America. Proceeds from these exports are earned tax-free.

The Guardian is a mainstream newspaper that has been around since 1821...they supported Tony Blair for prime minister and supported the war in Iraq. But in the wacko world of the Breitbarters, they are unreliable, where tinfoil hat blogs ARE.

Indeed, oil companies are receiving $70 billion is subsidies, even though President Bush, who was an oil man, said that they are not needed once oil gets over $55 a bbl http://www.americanprogress.org/issues/2011/05/bi... My IQ is 155, thank you, and I have an engineering degree. You purposely misspell my name, and insult me. Trash is what you are.

It's ok to give $70 billion in subsidies to the oil companies, but investing a fraction of that in new energy models, which can get us away from importing oil from countries that hate us is bad....All new technology has startup costs, and not all new projects will succeed. But continuing to do nothing means we keep funding our enemies (of course, the 9/11 terrorists were Saudis) Frank Provasek Department of Electrical Engineering University of Texas at Arlington

Big Journalism : Beck Joins Left, Targets James O'Keefe (Again) Over New Hampshire Voter Fraud Sting

Mon, 16 Jan 2012 04:38:43 +0000

Actual voter fraud is so rare, than even the justice department under Bush could find no evidence of it. There were some rare cases where green-card aliens appliying for drivers licenses were asked if they also wanted to register to vote. ACORN was framed by Brietbart because their backers simply don't want poor people to vote. Bush activists trimmed at least 10,000 eligible blacks off the voter rolls in Florida in 2000, which allowed the GOP stacked Supreme Court to appoint him as President. Republicans have been caught for decades trying to disenfranchise likely Democratic voters...from robo calls and flyers "To lessen long lines, Republicans will vote Tuesday, and Democrats will vote Wednesday." to GOP "poll watchers" telling black voters waiting in line that if they have a past due bill they will be arrested when they try to vote."

The weakest argument, often used by children who don't know better is..."But they do it too!!" Our crusade in the region is to show that democracy and American values are better. Dana, along with Breitbart's slime factory, can go hell.

Oh, and get this, such famous "reactionary leftists" as the Commandant of the USMC has called this despicable, and if he were reached for Dana's comment I'm sure he'd find it just as objectionable.

Allen West has no moral authority to speak on this issue. West interrogated an Iraqi policeman and discharged his 9 mm pistol just above the policeman's head. West was charged with assault and violating the Uniform Code of Military Justice. The military decided not to court-martial him, which would have meant years in prison and a dishonorable discharge if convicted. Instead, he was given an administrative Article 32 hearing and fined $5,000 for misconduct and assault, and allowed to quietly retire. with full pension and benefits.

Breitbart.tv : MSNBC: GOP Appeals To 1860 'Segregationist Past'

Sat, 14 Jan 2012 09:11:47 +0000

After Lyndon Johnson signed the 1964 Civil Rights Act, a young Republican strategist named Kevin Phillips helped to shape the GOP's so-called "Southern Strategy," which identified disaffected, white southern ex-Democrats as the potential core of what Phillips called an "emerging Republican majority" nationwide. Phillips later explained the essential dynamic of the Southern Strategy: "The more neġroes who register as Democrats in the South, the sooner the neġrophobe whites will quit the Democrats and become Republicans. That's where the votes are." In 1968, Phillips helped to coordinate campaign strategy for Richard Nixon, who employed the Southern Strategy to great success. In 1968, Nixon won a crushing nationwide victory over Democrat Hubert Humphrey as Democrats were completely shut out in the South for the first time since the Civil War. In recent decades, the old Democratic "Solid South" has become a nearly solid voting bloc once again—solidly Republican.

Lee Atwater, the most influential Republican political operative of the 1980s and Reagan's campaign manager in 1980, called Reagan's subtle approach to white backlash voters the "New Southern Strategy." Atwater acknowledged in 1981 that the strategy had been designed to appeal to "the racist side of the [George] Wallace voter" without antagonizing other Americans who might be offended by ugly Wallace-style racism. As Atwater explained, "You start out in 1954 by saying, 'nígger, nígger, nígger.' By 1968 you can't say 'nígger'—that hurts you. Backfires. So you say stuff like 'forced busing,' 'states' rights,' and all these things that you're talking about are totally economic things and a by-product of them is [that] bIacks get hurt worse than whites. And subconsciously maybe that is part of it... because obviously sitting around saying, 'We want to cut this,' is much more abstract than even the busing thing and a heII of a lot more abstract than 'nígger, nígger"
