THE UN WILL DECIDE IF AMERICA IS RACIST
The United Nations has taken it upon itself to investigate the American
presidential campaign. Why does the UN have such an interest in our election?
Because since Barack Obama is black and will be the Democrat nominee,
the United Nations wants to investigate whether racism plays a role in the
presidential campaign.
Excuse me, but just when did the UN get the authority to become involved in
our national elections?
Will this be enough to generate a groundswell of opinion against this rancid
organization? Probably not, and that's sad. It's time for the UN to go .. go
anywhere but on American territory.
The UN investigator will be looking "contemporary forms of racism, racial
discrimination, xenophobia, and related intolerance" during a two week tour of
the United States (and Puerto Rico). He will be talking to government leaders
but also community members, academics and people working in the field of racism
and discrimination (i.e.. Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson). If there is anyone out
there who doesn't firmly believe that the UN will issue a finding that the US
electoral process is racist ... well, you need help.
Do you know we actually agreed to this? That's right. The US apparently
accepted the investigation because we need to lead by example and be open to
outside investigation. What a complete an utter waste of time. We are becoming
a world where a black man could be the most powerful person in the world, and
yet the UN insists that racism must play a part in his campaign.
WELL .. IT'S ABOUT TIME
Yeah .. Barack Obama did over the weekend what ever single Democrat
presidential candidate in our lifetimes has done. He went to talk to a group of
wizened citizens and told them that if John McCain became president their
precious Social Security benefits would be threatened.
MCCAIN WILL DO WHAT?
After having their butts handed to them in last Tuesday's Mississippi
elections, the Republicans have come to a startling revelation ...
McCain may be the only person who can save the Republican party. The man
who just last summer was the bane of Republican existence because of amnesty
legislation, the man responsible for McCain-Feingold, the man who believes that
man-made climate change is a real threat. Yes, this is the man Republicans are
now embracing because of one reason: they have to. They have nobody to blame
but themselves. After years and years of government spending, pork barreling,
increasing government power, Republicans are forced to accept McCain because
they are a dying party.
Perhaps McCain's best features at this point are his support of the war
against Islamic fascism and his pledge to curb pork barrel spending. Add the
FairTax into the mix and there may be hope for the Republicans after all ...
But ... are Republicans that smart?
MCCAIN IS 'TOO MILITARY'
Democrat Senator Tom Harkin has really shown his disdain for our military.
He says that John McCain's worldview has been shaped by the fact that he grew up
in the military. That's probably true, and definitely to his benefit. He grew
up surrounded by the ethic of hard work, pride, and discipline. But that's not
how Tom Harkin see it. He says that everything is looked at from life
experience, and since McCain has been in the military,
"that can be pretty dangerous."
So because McCain grew up in a military family and served his country
honorably, this makes him "dangerous." Dangerous to who? To the American
people? To radical Islam? I think we know what Harkin really meant.
Democrats hold our military in disdain. They hold every man and woman who
enlists in our military in disdain. They constantly make comments about the
relative ignorance of men and women who join our armed services. Everyone
knows, of course, that if you're really smart you'll get out of high school and
go find yourself a union job somewhere ... a nice union job where you'll surrender
your independence and individualism to the union bosses. That's the Democrat
way. God forbid you would want to serve your country.
HILLARY GRAFFITI
At a tattoo convention in Baltimore, a tattoo artist is
offering free tattoos of Hillary Clinton. It seems his daughter is a big
Hillary supporter. Who knows? Maybe this will make the difference? I know I
would follow people who draw graffiti all over their bodies to hell and back.
MUSLIM OUTRAGE
It's been a while since we've had a Muslim outrage. In the Netherlands,
they've had some warm weather lately. So construction workers have decided stop
wearing their work overalls and start wearing shorts. The other day, the heads
of a contract firm working on a large renovation project received complaints
from the neighbors. They were showing just too much skin! The neighbors who
complained about all of the bare skin were Muslims.
Luckily, the contractor, at least for now, says that they don't intend to
change their dress in order to appease the Muslims. I'm sure the government
will have something to say about that soon enough.
SCHOOL PHOBIA
A girl in Pennsylvania by the name of Rebecca Maykish decided that she didn't
like school ... in the fourth grade. So her mother said, fine you don't have to
go. And so she hasn't. Now at the age of 17, the local taxpayers in the
Palmerton government school district
have paid tens of thousands of dollars to compensate for those days off.
Since 2004 the Palmerton government school board has authorized the payment
of more than $45,000 to help Rebecca make up for her days of missed school. So
her mother used the money for at-home tutoring and educational software. But
she also used the taxpayer money to pay for Rebecca's
modeling classes,
subscriptions to teen magazines, and trips to New York and Toronto for summer
camp.
Rebecca's money comes from the compensator education fund, which is supported
by local property taxes and controlled by the school board. The funds are given
to students "whose school districts have failed to give them an appropriate
education," as required by the federal Americans with Disabilities Act. You
see, Rebecca suffers from "school phobia." The thought of school makes her sick
with anxiety. So she has just stayed home. It was 2004 when the state ordered
the district to set up the compensatory education fund. They agreed to
compensate Rebecca for 1,000 hours of missed education, at a rate of $45 an
hour.
One way or the other .. this girl will spend her life sucking on the taxpayer
teat.
THE LARDASSIFICATION OF AMERICA
I read a story in the Washington Post about the death of a young woman. This
ultra-huge died in her sleep. Her mom blamed it on obesity. Possibly so ... her
mom is obese herself. In the story the mom bemoans the lack of "affordable"
weight loss clinics and exercise facilities. Oh boy ... here we go. As we know,
in the modern USA every single item or service that a person could possibly need
or even want must be affordable. The new mantra is that there is something
wrong with our country, our economy and our government if someone wants
something they can't afford to buy. Uh oh! Suddenly we have an issue of
"affordability!" So look out folks ... here comes the call for "affordable"
weight loss clinics and exercise spas. How do we make them affordable? Why,
through tax credits or other taxpayer-funded subsidies, of course. They had a
memorial party for the teenager. Featured at the party were all of her favorite
fried foods.
READING ASSIGNMENTS
Teddy Kennedy had a seizure over the weekend. In the meantime, Mary Jo
Kopechne is still quite dead. Kennedy will walk away. She didn't. Spare me
the wailing and gnashing of teeth.
Now here's a good idea! Let's
award a criminal justice degree to a cocaine dealer! Our favorite
criminology professor, Mike Adams, objects!
Do you believe in Obamamania? Is there mass hysteria behind the Obama
campaign?
Look at this picture from The Washington Post. Over 75,000 people turns out
to see a man who can do little more than say the word "change."
Are Democrats and the media trying to hurry Hillary out of the race
because she is a woman? Oh yeah. Certainly that must be it! It's all
about sexism! George Will has some thoughts ...
Here's a question I've been talking about for ages ...
"If GOP Wants To Govern Like Dems, Why Have a Separate Party?"
President Bush went all the way to Saudi Arabia to determine that
increasing oil production isn't going to solve our problem.
John McCain was on Saturday Night Live this weekend, joking that he has the
"oldness" that is necessary to lead the country.
Two men in California have been convicted
of running an illegal medical marijuana operation. It seems that making a
profit selling marijuana is illegal.
The "poor" Americans relying on government food stamps
are getting hit by higher food prices. Here's a quote from a 23-year-old
single mom who's a food stamp recipient: "Ain't got no food left, the kids are
probably hungry." Your tax dollars at work. What do you want to bet that this
woman is (a) fat, (b) has no idea where her two children's baby-daddies are, and
(c) has a cell phone and a few color televisions.
After hijacking a Afghan plane, Great Britain granted this guy the right to
live in Britain ... now he has been found
working as a cleaner for the Heathrow airport. Good show, Brits!
If you want to lean a bit about how much oil there is on the North Slope of
Alaska ..
then take a few minutes and watch this video. Or .. you could continue with
your rectal-cranial inversion.
A Little League player was suspended from playing because
his mom didn't show up to work the concession stand. Hey ... rules are
rules. Learn 'em young.
A government school student in Florida who has a rare skin condition
has been suspended for having an unacceptable haircut.
After accusing a government school teacher of practicing wizardry,
the school board is outraged that the public has noticed their stupidity.
Isn't it odd how public officials just hate it when they're exposed as the dolts
they are?
Here's a great article from City Journal about how
identity theft goes hand in hand with illegal immigration.
The Postville Community Schools superintendent says that
the immigration raid on his town is like a man-made natural disaster.
Remember those professional panhandlers? Looks like they are
already back out on the streets ... only with a different scheme.
How about spending
$2 million to protect a colony of newts ... that never existed.
When they say happy cows make more milk ... I don't know if they had
big screen TVs and water beds in mind.
