THE TRANZI THREAT

I never heard the term "tranzi", but seems useful and a word who's time has come.

After discussing the Chicago machine that The One crawled out from under to inflict its ruthless distain for democracy and the rule of law on the nation at large, James Lewis at Pajamas Media discusses climate-gate;

the global warming fraud is simply machine politics on the international level. Mark Steyn has coined the word “tranzi” for the transnational left that runs the UN, the European Union, most European capitals, and both left coasts of the United States. Tranzis are the political machine of our time.

The good news is that “anthropogenic global warming” — the most costly and widespread scientific fraud in history — just crumbled to fairy dust. We have emails from some of the biggest malefactors to prove it.

After running down the copious evidence, he continues:

Global warming was a fraud, and it has now been exposed.

That little fraud would have cost the taxpayers of the world trillions of dollars, not to mention wrecking their economies with carbon taxes and penalties.

But that’s not even the worst of it. The most important take home lesson is that global frauding was the clear and conscious work of a political machine aiming to steal your money, your liberties, and your country. It was a massive, worldwide attempt at a coup d’etat, and the victims were going to include all the free and prosperous peoples of the world. Hitler had his Reichstag fire. Today’s transnational left had its global warming fraud. The political goal was exactly the same: maximum power through maximum fear.

Melanie Phillips, writing in the Spectator, has it exactly right in a column called “Green Totalitarianism”:

All the manipulation, distortion and suppression revealed by these emails took place because it would seem these scientists knew their belief was not only correct but unchallengeable; and so when faced with evidence that showed it was false, they tried every which way to make the data fit the prior agenda. And those who questioned that agenda themselves had to be airbrushed out of the record, because to question it was simply impossible. Only AGW zealots get to decide, apparently, what science is. Truth is what fits their ideological agenda. Anything else is to be expunged. … [W]hat we are dealing with here is the totalitarian personality. One thing is now absolutely clear for all to see about the anthropogenic global warming scam: science this is not.

Fittingly, the title of the article is "It's Totalitarianism, Stupid."

GET READY FOR IT

We laugh now. Die in the terrorist attacks that the President is inviting, tomorrow.
CATCHY TUNE, AIN'T IT?

CONTROL AND SELF-LOATHING: THE GUIDING DARKS OF THE LEFT

B. Daniel Blatt at Gay Patriot has some musings on Climate-gate:

Basically, it boils down to this: they’ve been doctoring the data on global warming because they need it to be so. First, if private industry has created this problem, then it becomes to easier for them to demand increased government control over our society, giving greater power to a certain “anointed” class (which must needs include them). And second, it makes it easier to be critical of our species, particularly that part of our species which resides in the industrialized West or otherwise contributes to the civilization of the West.

If I do have anything original to offer, it might be about that second point, though I’m pretty sure I’m not the first to raise it.

There is a fascinating irony to the attitude under consideration in that second point. The very notion of self-criticism is a a key aspect of Western civilization. And yet, some have taken it to an extreme. It’s not just some problems that can be attributed to our society, our culture, our civilization, our species, but every major problem must needs be one of human design. Some have taken a key aspect of Western civilization to indict that very civilization (and, in other fields of endeavor, to blame the West while excusing the rest even when their crimes are far worse).

Thus, if the temperatures of the earth are increasing, it must be due to carbon emissions, and that any evidence of a Medieval Warm Period must be discredited.

The long and the short of it that there is more to climategate than meets the eye. It’s not just about doctoring the data.


As I have felt for quite a while. It's no longer politics. It's a mental health issue.

REAL FEMINISM

Wow. I read Robin of Berkley at American Thinker once and awhile and she seems to get better and better. I was going to just post a link, but this is so AWESOMELY right on the spot, that it calls for a gratuitous re-posting:

When I was in college, I read a book that changed my life. It was Susan Brownmiller's tome, Against Our Will: Men, Women, and Rape, which explained rape as an act of power instead of just lust. What I found particularly chilling was the chapter on war -- how rape is used to terrorize a population and destroy the enemy's spirit.

While edifying, the book magnified the vulnerability I already felt as a female. Fear of rape became a constant dread, and I sought a solution that would help shield me from danger.

The answer: seek safe harbor within the Democratic Party. I even became an activist for feminist causes, including violence against women. Liberalism would protect me from the big, bad conservatives who wished me harm.

Like for most feminists, it was a no-brainer for me to become a Democrat. Liberal men, not conservatives, were the ones devoted to women's issues. They marched at my side in support of abortion rights. They were enthusiastic about women succeeding in the workplace.

As time went on, I had many experiences that should have made me rethink my certainty. But I remained nestled in cognitive dissonance -- therapy jargon for not wanting to see what I didn't want to see.

One clue: the miscreants who were brutalizing me didn't exactly look Reagan-esque. In middle and high schools, they were minority kids enraged about forced busing. On the streets of New York City and Berkeley, they were derelicts and hoodlums.

Another red flag: while liberal men did indeed hold up those picket signs, they didn't do anything else to protect me. In fact, their social programs enabled bad behavior and bred chaos in urban America. And when I was accosted by thugs, those leftist men were missing in action.

What else should have tipped me off? Perhaps the fact that so many men in ultra-left Berkeley are sleazebags. Rarely a week goes by that I don't hear stories from my young female clients about middle-aged men preying on them. With the rationale of moral relativism, these creeps feel they can do anything they please.

What finally woke me up were the utterances of "bitch," "witch," and "monster" toward Hillary Clinton and her supporters early last year. I was shocked into reality: the trash-talk wasn't coming from conservatives, but from male and female liberals.

I finally beheld what my eyes had refused to see: that leftists are Mr. and Ms. Misogyny. Neither the males nor the females care a whit about women.

Women are continually sacrificed on the altar of political correctness. If under radical Islam women are enshrouded and stoned and beheaded, so be it.

My other epiphanies: those ponytailed guys were marching for abortion rights not because they cherished women's reproductive freedom, but to keep women available for free and easy sex.

And the eagerness for women to make good money? If women work hard, leftist men don't have to.

Then along came Sarah, and the attacks became particularly heinous. And I realized something even more chilling about the Left. Leftists not only sacrifice and disrespect women, but it's far worse: many are perpetuators.

The Left's behavior towards Palin is not politics as usual. By their laser-focus on her body and her sexuality, leftists are defiling her.

They are wilding her. And they do this with the full knowledge and complicity of the White House.

The Left has declared war on Palin because she threatens their existence. Liberals need women dependent and scared so that women, like blacks, will vote Democrat.

A strong, self-sufficient woman, Palin eschews liberal protection. Drop her off in the Alaskan bush and she'll survive just fine, thank you very much. Palin doesn't need or want anything from liberals -- not hate crimes legislation that coddles her, and not abortion, which she abhors.

Palin is a woman of deep and abiding faith. She takes no marching orders from messiah-like wannabes like Obama.

And so the Left must try to destroy her. And they are doing this in the most malicious of ways: by symbolically raping her.

Just like a perpetuator, they dehumanize her by objectifying her body. They undress her with their eyes.

They turn her into a piece of ass.

Liberals do this by calling her a c__t, ogling her legs, demeaning her with names like "slutty flight attendant" and "Trailer Park Barbie," and exposing her flesh on the cover of Newsweek.

And from Atlantic Magazine's Andrew Sullivan "Sarah Palin's vagina is the font of all evil in the galaxy."

Nothing is off-limits, not actress Sandra Bernhard's wish that Palin be gang-raped or the sexualization of Palin's daughters.

As every woman knows, leering looks, lurid words, and veiled threats are intended to evoke terror. Sexual violence is a form of terrorism.

The American Left has a long history of defiling people to control and break them. The hard core '60s leftists were masters of guerrilla warfare, like the Symbionese Liberation Army repeatedly raping Patty Hearst. Huey P. Newton sent a male Black Panther to the hospital, bloodied and damaged from a punishment of sodomy.

The extreme Left still consider themselves warriors, righteous soldiers for their Marxist cause. With Palin, they use sexual violence as part of their military arsenal.

Palin is not the only intended victim. As Against Our Will described, the brutality is also aimed at men. By forcing men to witness Palin's violation, the Left tries to emasculate conservative men and render them powerless.

The wilding of any woman is reprehensible. But defiling a mother of five with a babe in her arms, and a grandmother to boot, is particularly obscene. It is, of course, Palin's unapologetic motherhood that fuels the leftist fire.

Because as a mother and a fertile woman, Palin is as close to the sacred as a person gets. She is not just politically pro-life. Her whole being emanates life, which is a stark contrast to the darkness of the Left, the life-despoilers.

These "progressives" are so alienated from the sacred that they perceive nothing as sacred. And they will destroy anyone whose goodness shines a mirror on their pathology. The spiritually barren must annihilate the vital and the fertile.

It has been almost two years since I woke up and broke up with liberalism. During these many months, I've discovered that everything I believed was wrong.

But the biggest shock of all has been realizing that the Democratic Party is hardly an oasis for women. Now that it has been infiltrated by the hard Left, it's a dangerous place for women, children, and other living things.

In the wilding of Sarah Palin, the Left shows its true colors. Rather than sheild the vulnerable, leftists will mow down any man, woman, or child who gets in their way. Instead of a movement of hope and change, it is a cauldron of hate.

From Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Hatred paralyzes life; love releases it. Hatred confuses life; love harmonizes it. Hatred darkens life; love illuminates it.

In these dark times, with spiritually bankrupt people at the helm, thank God we have bright lights like Sarah Palin to illuminate the darkness.


HOPE N' CHANGE THANKSGIVING GREETINGS!
Love me some Hope n' Change, now!

THIS IS NOT GLOBAL REDISTRIBUTION OF WEALTH!

What are ya, un-American or somethin? This is the highest form of patriotism:

Team Obama approved a nuclear energy program for the UAE in May.
But, Obama and the Pelosi-Reid Democrats will not allow nuclear energy expansion in the United States.

Already this year democrats banned offshore drilling, scrapped oil and gas leases in Utah and opened the 111th Congress by introducing a bill to permanently prohibit drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR).
But, Team Obama is going to lend billions of dollars to Brazil to finance exploration of its huge offshore oil field discovery...

The Wall Street Journal reported: The U.S. is going to lend billions of dollars to Brazil’s state-owned oil company, Petrobras, to finance exploration of the huge offshore discovery in Brazil’s Tupi oil field in the Santos Basin near Rio de Janeiro.

(via GatewayPundit)


No nuclear here, no drilling here. But elsewhere in the world we will give you our money for you to do it, so that we can become more dependent on you and you can have more of the money that our evil, eeeeevil nation does not deserve.

And that concludes our lesson on Chairman Zero's energy policy.

Quite unlike that hateful, inbred Sarah Palin's isn't it?
From the scrubbed web page. DARN them internets! Just can't erase ANYTHIN'!

MARXIST CLIMATE CZAR ON CLIMATE-GATE E-MAILS: "EH, SO WHAT?"

Because the left has NEVER let the truth stand in the way of The Glorious Revolution, doncha know.

Its a matter of public record that Carol Browner believes in global redistribution of wealth and a one world government:

Carol M. Browner, President-elect Barack Obama's pick as global warming czar, was listed as one of 14 leaders of a socialist group's Commission for a Sustainable World Society, which calls for "global governance" and says rich countries must shrink their economies to address climate change.

By Thursday, Mrs. Browner's name and biography had been removed from Socialist International's Web page, though a photo of her speaking June 30 to the group's congress in Greece was still available. (Washington Times)

Hmmm. With The One committed to almost 20% reduction in CO2 emissions, knowing full well China and India won't do that, what will happen? A huge flow of money from the United States to be redistributed to other nations. Of course a one-world government will be needed. About Browner's group:

It is an influential assembly of officials from across the international community whose official Statement of Principles describes an agenda of gaining and exercising government power based on socialist concepts. (Washington Examiner)

Given the chance to fulfill the dream of Karl Marx of an international socialist revolution leading to a world government, Browner's response to the Global Warming hoax being brought to light is predictable:

Obama administration climate czar Carol Browner on Wednesday rejected claims that e-mails stolen from a British university show climate scientists trumped up global warming numbers, saying she considers the science settled.

Ms. Browner initially shrugged when asked about the e-mails, saying she didn't have a reaction....

"I'm sticking with the 2,500 scientists. These people have been studying this issue for a very long time and agree this problem is real," said Ms. Browner, who President Obama has tapped as his chief of policy on global warming. (Washington Times)


In other news, she said that photographs showing that the sky is blue don't prove that it is in reality, lime green with purple polka dots.

It's only a small group of skeptics that disagree. But wait....OH NOES! ANOTHER SCANDAL breaking:

news from New Zealand:

The New Zealand Government's chief climate advisory unit NIWA is under fire for allegedly massaging raw climate data to show a global warming trend that wasn't there.
The scandal breaks as fears grow worldwide that corruption of climate science is not confined to just Britain's CRU climate research centre. (via Moonbattery)

Poor lil' Marxists. It's gettin harder and harder to contain the truth. If ONLY they had complete and total control of all media!

TAKE THIS WOMAN SERIOUSLY!

She's not some trashy clown like Sarah Palin! She's sophisticated, nuanced and an elite intellectual!

More ho ho HOE:



M'kay Katie. Thanks for making things a "little more clear" for us dumb hicks down he-uh.
BECK HAMMERS THE CLIMATE HOAXERS

THE QUEEN OF CONSERVATIVE MEDIA?



MAN, I love Red Eye!!!!
WHAT SOUNDS LIKE MORE TROOPS IS NOT....?

Jammie Wearing Fool asks a question that I have not heard before about the troop "increase" granted between sets of golf by His Ditheringness:

...leaked reports say he is going to commit 34,000 troops to Afghanistan. What seems to be lost on all the experts is that the current troop level in Afghanistan is 68,000. A tour of duty is 12 months. If he is promising 34,000 troops over a six month period then that simply works out to the normal rotation of soldiers in and out of theater.

Can anybody provide me with evidence that the 34,000 will be a net increase and not merely normal rotations?


I'd be interested to hear...

WHAT'S A PARDON WITHOUT YET ANOTHER.....BOW!

Good Lord.

The One's decree (insert trumpet fanfare here):

Obama said there were days when he is reminded of why he ran for the office and "then there are moments like this, where I get to pardon a turkey and send it to Disneyland."


Disneyland? Is that different than Happy Gumdrop Land? Because if it ain't, that turkey don't need to go nowhere!

And as to why he "ran for the office," I'm sure glad he dropped a clue on us 'bout that, cause it sure as hell wasn't to defend the Constitution, provide for the common defense or represent the will of the people.

Least now we know. It was to send turkeys to Disneyland.
GIVING? THAT'S THE GOVERNMENT'S JOB NOW!

Please, please throw the thieving thugs out of congress and give Santa his job back!

“Generosity is morally virtuous because we are essentially social beings with the prospect of intimate relationships enhancing our lives, and because we can ennoble ourselves by supporting others. Yet if generous behavior were not freely chosen, but instead coerced by law, its moral import would vanish; it would amount to regimented conduct, something for which moral credit cannot be due, especially to the regimented. It would cease to be generous.” -Machan (Generosity: Virtue in Civil Society)

"There is no virtue in compulsory government charity, and there is no virtue in advocating it. A politician who portrays himself as caring and sensitive because he wants to expand the government's charitable programs is merely saying that he is willing to do good with other people's money. Well, who isn't? And a voter who takes pride in supporting such programs is telling us that he will do good with his own money— if a gun is held to his head. "
P.J. O'Rourke (Why I Am A Conservative)


(BTW, the government won't be giving anyone these books, so they can still be gifts from the heart!)

CROWD OF ALL WHITE PEOPLE HORRIFIED BY CROWD OF WHITE PEOPLE

The newest Palin attack line coming from the government media is that Palin's supporters are all white. You can see that from the carefully edited footage!

Never mind that the one network that gives her a fair shake, Fox, has a MUCH more diverse crowd of reporters and commentators. We all know they are not REAL black, asian, and indian men and women, because they aren't liberals. Fuggedaboutit.

The all-white crowd has spoken and they are horrified by all-white crowds!

See? They're better than you! Ya racist.
ECO-NAZI HOLDREN NOW IMPLICATED IN CLIMATE-GATE

You know, the guy that called for compulsory abortion and forced sterilization of the population? The Obamunist's....um "Science" Czar?

But of course! Lying about the facts is was merely another tool he used to help save the world!

Michelle Malkin has the goods.
"There ya go, soldier. Now get out there and FIGHT!"

THE NEUTERED MILITARY

There's been a lot of discussion online about Beck's call for people to stay out of the military. I can see both sides. On one hand, our COUNTRY needs protected and defended by brave men and women regardless of who's president (or in this case, wanna-be Marxist Chairman). But on the other...

As rocketman points out in the comments at Michele Malkin, our men and women are being given
orders that violate the military oath all of us who served took to DEFEND AND PROTECT OUR CONSTITUTION (and Country) AGAINST ALL ENEMIES BOTH FOREIGN AND DOMESTIC.
They are made to take an oath and then made to violate that oath.


The one thing I know for sure is GOD BLESS these brave, selfless people for continuing in such impossible circumstances under a commander in chief that despises them. We need to all pray for them.

It boggles the mind.

A caller on Rush yesterday, with more than a decade of service, stated that the problem is that, after Tailhook, those seeking top rank realized that what they had to support and promote to move that far up was what Rush calls the "chick-if-ication" of the military. But I think that is to limited at term.

Ball-snipping is certainly part of it- aggression is bad, love is good and war should be pretty. Soldiers are supposed to somehow shoot with compassion instead of aggression. Attack not the enemy, but friends you haven't met yet, and attack them with a finely honed nest-building instinct.

But its also the idea exemplified by The Army’s top officer, General George Casey after the last terrorist attack, at Ft. Hood:

“Speculation could potentially heighten backlash against some of our Muslim soldiers and what happened at Fort Hood was a tragedy, but

I believe it would be an even greater tragedy if our diversity becomes a casualty here.


It’s not just about Muslims, we have a very diverse army, we have very diverse society and that gives us all strength. But again we need to be very careful about that.”


No buddy. Muslims have absolutely NOTHING to do with it.

Political ideals trump reality now. It is more important to cling to the illusion of a world without differences, in which all can be reasoned with, than it is to engage the cold, hard truth.

As a matter of fact, "cold and hard" are bad now. Soldiers should be more delicate and nuanced, carefully weighing the philosophy of what is happening and above all, considering the motivation of the man with a gun pointed at their head and how to turn those bullets into international flowers of love. It's at West Point too:

Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, elevated diversity to a “strategic imperative” during his tenure as chief of naval operations. Academy leaders, on their official Web site, call diversity “our highest personnel priority.”


Not excellence. Not preparedness. Not loyalty. None of those quaint, old-fashioned concepts.
Diversity trumps all.

Again, all I know for sure is that we should pray every day for the American heroes that work to defend us under such mind-blowing conditions.

It's the very LEAST we can do (if we don't do more).

UPDATE: Whew! I was un-aware of the comment pile-up on Allahpundit, till I read about it at The Other McCain. Some really good comments!

ARGH!!!

Anyone that keeps talking about this higher standard crap can kiss my big fat butt. If you think that our Marines should have restrained themselves when capturing the man that tortured, killed, burned, dismembered and hanged fellow Marines, I have to ask “have you ever been part of any deeply committed organization where brotherhood meant something?”

If you were the father of a child or friend that was raped and murdered, and you happened to capture the thug that did it, do you think you could hold yourself to a higher standard? If you happened to capture someone that was stealing stuff from your home, or harming a family pet, or desecrating a family grave, could you control yourself?

Do you have ANY friggin concept of pride and brotherhood? Who knows what was said when he was captured. Did this evil piece of vile filth have the ballz to mouth off to his captors? Or better yet, is he completely aware of the pussification of America and received the bloody lip while in Iraqi custody to be used to further slime our military?

The fact that this piece of crap is still alive is PROOF that our soldiers acted with restraint. They should be given a medal, not a trial.

cannonball on November 25, 2009 at 5:04 PM


As a former SEAL, I sit here almost speechless. I cannot imagine operating under the ROE that the warriors must suffer today. The whole purpose of the SEAL and other SF is to accomplish the mission using extreem violence. That is the only way to accomplish the things we did with the few men we had. You cannot expect a SEAL who has been taught this to suddenly become a pussycat with an enemy who has vowed the destruction of our country.

Give them a medal, not Admiral’s Mast.

Friends, fundraisers and allies of the President

NEW POLICY FROM THE COMMANDER IN CHIEF

Yeah, really. For instance, from Human Events:
The co-founder of the radical anti-war group Code Pink has “bundled” more than $50,000 for Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign, and pro-troops groups are demanding that he return the money.

Jodie Evans, a Code Pink leader, gathered at least $50,000 from friends and associates and donated it to Obama’s presidential campaign, according to information compiled by the nonpartisan watchdog group, Public Citizen.

Evans and her son, a student who lives at her Southern California address, each also gave the maximum individual allowable donation of $2,300 to Obama’s campaign.

The donations have raised questions about Obama’s association with the more radical elements of his base. Code Pink has harassed, vandalized and impeded military recruiters across the United States in a campaign it calls “counter-recruitment.” The group also gave $600,000 to the families of Iraqi terrorists in Fallujah, whom it called “insurgents” fighting for their homes.

Of course now she's working even harder for her friend, Der Messiah (from Big Government) :

Top Obama donor and fundraiser Jodie Evans met with the Taliban in Afghanistan on a recent trip there, according to a report by Jane Fonda of a discussion she had with Evans last month. The meeting with the Taliban took place just weeks before Evans was videotaped directly handing to President Barack Obama a package of information about her trip to Afghanistan at a high dollar fundraiser in San Francisco....

There is precedent to suspect that Evans is acting as a conduit for the Taliban to Obama. In June, her fellow Code Pink co-founder Medea Benjamin hand carried a letter out of Gaza from the terrorist group Hamas addressed to Obama.

Over the seven years of its existence, Code Pink has acted as propaganda shills for the anti-American governments of Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez, Bolivia’s President Evo Morales, Cuba’s Castro brothers and Iraq under Saddam Hussein, as well as Middle Eastern terrorist groups....

At home they work to undermine morale in our soldiers, their families and the American public. Abroad they work with terrorist enemies of the United States.

Does this help you understand other recent news?

Why we help terrorists by having KSM in NY to put the CIA on trial and run a propaganda floor show?

Why our soldiers are hamstrung by impossible rules of engagement and prevented from winning a war?

Why they so often prosecuted... for being soldiers?

Why do I have to ask these freakin ridiculous questions when it's gettin so damn obvious?

"Goddamn America"

I'd say connect the dots, but there are so many anymore that you wouldn't have to move your pencil. It's already a picture...just starin' us in the face.

The One, all smiles, working with the founder of the group that loudly proclaims, "we support the murder of American troops."







WHO CARES HOW MANY PEOPLE DIE? I JUST LOVE ME SOME TREEEEES!

J.R. Dunn at American Thinker discusses the Green movement in all it's redness:

The goal of environmentalism is not to provide power or maintain the current level of industrial activity. If anything, it's the exact opposite. Since conservation was twisted into an ideology in the late 1960s, it has pursued the explicit goal of remaking society on the basis of a fantasy notion of natural living, in which human beings are little more that another unit of the ecology, no more important and requiring only slightly more in the way of resources than a snail darter or a spotted owl. While not trumpeting this aim, Greens make no secret of it.
Environmentalism is a revolutionary ideology, deriving much of its thinking, rhetoric, and practice from the left. Like other left-wing cults, it is explicitly anti-capitalist. But environmentalism goes one step further -- while the left wishes to remake industrial society according to the Marxist model, the Greens wish to simply abolish it and return to a mythical "natural" state. What easier way to accomplish that then to cut the West's energy lifeline?
Nuclear power has already been made anathema. Coal and oil, as CO2 releasers, are next on the agenda. In the end, this leaves only renewables. What this means is more than conservation, more than recycling, more than the Green gestures to which many Americans have become reconciled. It means a complete collapse of industrial society. Not mere cuts, but effective eradication of home heating, electricity, and transportation. It means shutting down virtually all heavy industry. The limited industry that will remain - electronics, computers, some forms of biotechnology -- will be light enough to leave a small ecological "footprint." It will also be controlled by government, or rather the Green bureaucracy.
Of course, such a system cannot conceivably support 300 million Americans or 6 billion people worldwide. But as they say, that's not a flaw, but a feature.
Mass murder has always been inherent to socialism. The first recorded mention of genocide occurred in a February 1848 edition of the socialist paper Neue Rheinische Zeitung, edited by none other than Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. Twenty years later, the Nihilists amused themselves by trying to calculate how many people would have to be killed once they took over. The generally accepted figure was 10%. As many will recall, William Ayers easily doubled this figure in similar discussions with his Weather Underground comrades.
Nor was this limited to cocky pseudo-revos. Whenever the left has achieved power, mass murder -- democide, in the term coined by Dr. R.J. Rummel -- has been the result. Stalin accounted for his 40 million. Mao may have exceeded this. As far as percentages of population go, the Khmer Rouge are the undisputed champs, having slaughtered at least a third of their Cambodian countrymen.
The Greens like to reverse the formula, speaking instead of what the optimal human population of earth might be. The numbers vary -- a billion, half a billion, a hundred million, or a little over 1% of the current world population. There's even a Voluntary Human Extinction movement, which holds that the human race is an evolutionary failure that would be better off extinct.
But the impulse is the same. The question remains on how to reach the goal. In the past, Greens have spoken of outside forces doing the job for them, of population crashes caused by overpopulation, pollution, resource depletion, or lately, by global warming. But there has always been a more typical leftist undercurrent as well, common among Earth First! and eco-fascist groups, that if nature fails, the Greens should step in. Such concepts as tailored viruses designed to cut the population through sterilization or more final effects have been discussed in Green circles with considerable seriousness.
The revelations of fraud concerning the East Anglia Climate Research Unit e-mails will go a long way toward transforming the debate on environmentalist policy. But such a transformation should not be limited to the topic of global warming. The public image of environmentalism as a warm, sentimental, animal- and tree-loving movement is no more than a mask. In truth, it is steel-hard and anti-human, yet another example of the sickness within the soul of modernism. The center-right must discover a method of getting this truth across. But first, this truth must be adequately understood.

MIRROR, MIRROR

This is getting to be like catching fish in a barrel.

Drudge
just posted this pic of The One leaving the White House holding a GQ....with his pic on the cover.

Never get enough, do ya Jugears?

And I'm sorry, but I gotta ask- why is he holding it against his crotch?

CHRISTMAS, NO. EID AL-ADHA YES.


I don't friggin believe this- I cracked a joke about this being the holiday we're allowed to celebrate in the winter, and lo.... what do I find today?

I have to re-post the whole thing, he's so right on- from Warner Todd Huston at Right Wing News:
Christmas. Who needs it? Not Best Buy, that's for sure. After all, Best Buy is loathe to use that hateful word in its advertising. It's so "religious" and tinged with racism, America, and tradition. It makes Best Buy shudder to think of using that foul word, Christmas. But, advertising for the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha? Heck, why not? What could be more welcoming and tolerant?

And so, Best Buy has issued a Thanksgiving sales flyer wishing all good multi-cultural, Muslim loving Americans a happy Eid al-Adha this year.

Don't you feel your heart warming already? Isn't your PC bone tingling with happiness? And aren't you secretly gleeful that those rotten, evil, reactionary, hatemongering Christians are getting theirs... even if Christians do make up about 75 percent of the United States?

Well, let's give Best Buy a hand for its politically correct sales flier excising that horrid Christmas nonsense and being enlightened enough to help us all convert to the "Religion of Peace."

Thanks be it to Allah and Best Buy for helping us forget little things like the Khobar Tower bombing, the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Towers, the attack on the U.S.S. Cole, 9/11, or that silly little incident with Nidal Hasan at Fort Hood. It was but a trifle, after all.

In this happy Eid al-Adha season we can thank Best Buy for its sacrifice, too. For its sacrifice of America to its enemies, for the sacrifice of our traditions, religious principles, and culture to an alien, hostile ideology. We can thank Best Buy for helping organizations like CAIR to spread its message of cultural jihad.

Yes, thanks Best Buy for showing us how to be better "Americans."

Now go ye forward and shop, America. Happy Eid al-Adha to everyone. And don't let PETA stop you from buying that goat. And don't mind us, folks. We are just committing cultural suicide is all.



AN INCONVENIENT LACK OF TOTAL MEDIA DOMINATION

The Goracle's big ol haid must be spinnin' like Linda Blair's in the Exorcist and shrieking "what a world, what a world" as he gets hit by a big ol' bucket of truth instead of rising sea water!

Newsbusters:

An hilariously bizarre situation is happening in the wake of the growing Climategate scandal. Many of the mainstream media stories about global warming are simply pretending it doesn't exist. Perhaps they feel that by ignoring Climategate entirely that it will just go away. Unfortunately for them, the readers of these global warming stories keep bringing up the inconvenient truth of Climategate by mentioning the scandal in the comments section over and over and over again.


Maybe they should be more careful about what information is allowed in their comments section. We haven't become complete slaves YET.

THIS SHOULD BE BEYOND OBVIOUS BY NOW!

I understand that fair minded people wanted to give Obama the benefit of the doubt. They didn't want to point to what seemed to be happening. But as time has gone on and the destruction has ramped up, its time to face the ugly truth.

James Simpson at American Thinker:

It is time to cast aside all remaining doubt. President Obama is not trying to lead America forward to recovery, prosperity and strength. Quite the opposite, in fact...

The methodology is known as the Cloward-Piven Strategy, and we can all be grateful to David Horowitz and his Discover the Networks for originally exposing and explaining it to us. He describes it as:

The strategy of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis. The "Cloward-Piven Strategy" seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.

Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven were two lifelong members of Democratic Socialists of America who taught sociology at Columbia University (Piven later went on to City University of New York). In a May 1966 Nation magazine article titled "The Weight of the Poor," they outlined their strategy, proposing to use grassroots radical organizations to push ever more strident demands for public services at all levels of government.

The result, they predicted, would be "a profound financial and political crisis" that would unleash "powerful forces ... for major economic reform at the national level."

They implemented the strategy by creating a succession of radical organizations, most notable among them the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), with the help of veteran organizer Wade Rathke. Their crowning achievement was the "Motor Voter" act, signed into law by Bill Clinton in 1993 with Cloward and Piven standing behind him.

As we now know, ACORN was one of the chief drivers of high-risk mortgage lending that eventually led to the financial crisis. But the Motor Voter law was another component of the strategy. It created vast vulnerabilities in our electoral system, which ACORN then exploited.
ACORN's vote registration scandals throughout the U.S. are predictable fallout.

The Motor Voter law has also been used to open another vulnerability in the system: the registration of vast numbers of illegal aliens, who then reliably vote Democrat. Herein lies the real reason Democrats are so anxious for open borders, security be damned.

It should be clear to anyone with a mind and two eyes that this president and this Congress do not have our interests at heart. They are implementing this strategy on an unprecedented scale by flooding America with a tidal wave of poisonous initiatives, orders, regulations, and laws. As Rahm Emmanuel said, "A crisis is a terrible thing to waste."

The real goal of "health care" legislation, the real goal of "cap-and-trade," and the real goal of the "stimulus" is to rip the guts out of our private economy and transfer wide swaths of it over to the government to control. Do not be deluded by the propaganda. These initiatives are vehicles for change. They are not goals in and of themselves except in their ability to deliver power. They and will make matters much worse, for that is their design.

This time, in addition to overwhelming the government with demands for services, Obama and the Democrats are overwhelming political opposition to their plans with a flood of apocalyptic legislation. Their ultimate goal is to leave us so discouraged, demoralized, and exhausted that we throw our hands up in defeat. As Barney Frank said, "the middle class will be too distracted to fight."

These people are our enemies. They don't use guns, yet, but they are just as dangerous, determined, and duplicitous as the communists we faced in the Cold War, Korea, Vietnam, and bush wars across the globe, and the Nazis we faced in World War II.

It is time we fully internalized and digested this fact, with all its ugly ramifications. These people have violated countless laws and could be prosecuted, had we the political power. Not only are their policies unconstitutional, but deliberately so -- the goal being to make the Constitution irrelevant. Their spending is off the charts and will drive us into hyperinflation, but it could be rescinded, had we the political power. These policies are toxic, but they could be stopped and reversed, had we the political power. Their ideologies are poisonous, but they could be exposed for what they are, with long jail sentences as an object lesson, had we the political power.

HOW DID WE GET TO WHERE WE ARE?

Subotai Bahadur at Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler says its

FEAR:
Those who govern us have the power to impose their will on us because we FEAR

them and what they can do to us.

Conversely, they have absolutely NO FEAR of anything we are likely to do to them.

They DO NOT FEAR the Law or the Constitution, because they know that in actual practice they are above them. Just try to charge someone politically connected under the same law that we have to obey. The only way that they get punished for their crimes is if their fellow politicians pull a vendetta on them or if they are so monumentally stupid as to invoke Darwinian laws.

They DO NOT FEAR poverty or have the same need we have to make enough to survive. Between blatant corruption and having a pipeline direct into the Treasury, they have no monetary worries at all. It is telling that out of 535 members of the House and Senate, 400+ are millionaires, with most of those being Democrats. No one who goes to Congress or to high Executive postion comes out anything but wealthy.

They DO NOT FEAR losing elections, because even before last January they believed that they have the game rigged. Since the management [I won't say leadership] of the Republican Party would rather lose every issue and every election rather than run candidates that would offend Democrats, or stand up and fight them; there is no one to oppose the rigging. In most election cycles, there is more turnover from death and retirements than from voter choice. And the way that they are acting this year; running roughshod over the law and deliberately, knowingly, and arrogantly pissing off their constituents … the most rational explanation is that they no longer believe that they need to even theoretically fear the possibility of being voted out of office in 2010 or after.

They DO NOT FEAR public opinion, because they and their families neither interact with the “peasants” and nor do they give an obese rodents gluteal musculature about what we think, feel, or go through. They make Marie Antoinette look like Mother Teresa. We have as much social influence on them as ants have on picnickers.

They DO NOT FEAR physical harm, because the entire weight of the state is in place to protect them, and the mass of Americans are not the men that the Founding Fathers were, or even the men that our own fathers were.

Until they have something to FEAR, we are just serfs as far as they are concerned. That does not preclude them being stupid enough to kill off the serfs that keep them in the High Castle, out of devotion to their collectivist gods; but until we do something to instill FEAR in them, we are still serfs.

It's why I won't shut up and "try to get along" anymore.
"We are disPLEASED."

IF ONLY IT CHANGES FAST ENOUGH

The numbers are constantly moving in the sane direction and people are starting to wake up and smell the raw sewage.

The newest:

independents in Rasmussen’s survey give Barack Obama a whopping 61% disapproval rating, as opposed to 38% approval — a gap of 23 points. (Hot Air)


PLEASE. I BEG OF YOU... KILL ME. OH, AN MERRY CHRISTMAS.

It's bad enough that it looks like this will be the first Christmas that I do not get to spend with my family in years (I get to see them only a few times a year to begin with).

But I can deal, I'll make the best of it.

But THIS is more than I can bear:

The queen of daytime will interview the president of the country during an ABC holiday special that brings together Oprah Winfrey and Barack Obama.

The network has announced “Christmas at the White House: An Oprah Primetime Special.”

“Christmas at the White House” will air Sunday, Dec. 13, at 10 p.m.
Just posted to the North Pole:

Dear Santa,

Please bring me a big 'ol bottle of Jim Beam and a bucket to puke in.

Thank you.



YOU LIKE FEEELINGS? HOW 'BOUT THESE, FROM A SOVIET IMMIGRANT?

The People's Cube, btw, is partly run by an ex-soviet, who came here to escape what we are now becoming- hence the motivation for the site. Now this, posted by Red Square:

"Goodbye, America" by Alexander Matlin, an ex-Soviet satirist now living in New Jersey:

GOODBYE, AMERICA!
(translated by Ilya Kazakov)

Goodbye, America, my country!
Goodbye, my dearest, goodbye.
Above our heads is rising sultry,
Socialistic crimson sky.

From Western lands to the Eastern border
From Northern lakes to Florida estates
We will create a better social order
Just like the one they had in the Soviet states.

Denounce profits, where they abound!
With neither doubt nor redundant care
We'll redistribute wealth around
So everyone enjoys an equal share!

For all the people of this sunny nation
We'll moderate an equal monthly pay.
By way of total wealth elimination.
We'll all get poor. Poor, but the same!

We strive towards this noble goal untiring.
We are so close, we're sure almost there.
Already numerous Acorn battalions
Are waiting for the final signal flare.

And then we heard HIS voice elated:
"The hope!", "The change", and "Yes, we can!"
HE, neatly dressed, for stardom slated,
To build this land anew began.

Aside cast doubts, qualms, and fears
HIS hand steers firmly towards the sun.
For us... We shall extend a hand to peers:
Iran, Al-Qaida, Cuba, Taliban.

Venezuela, China, North Korea
Hamas and Burma, and everyone else.
We'll blush, apologize. For this idea
They will forgive us our offense.

We'll feed them all, of course no strings attaching.
(They're our foes no more just so you know).
And then at last, our behavior so touching,
The world will love us dearly once more.

There won't be turning back allowed
We'll press ahead together, no dissent.
We'll treat the sick for free of charge, no doubt
To keep the workforce healthy and content.

We'll love ourselves and one another.
For godly deeds, we'll simply worship HIM.
Instead of burning oil and coal we rather
Should keep this country and the planet green.

While stubbornly ahead we're storming
The evil of capitalism killing,
We'll stop the spread of global warming
And heat producing shameless profiteering.

Let children of this people's nation
Recite aloud cheerful hoorays.
And thank their leader with exhilaration
For childhood full of happy, sunny days.

No more of unapproved persuasions.
No more of undesirable qualms.
We'll come to love with utter adulation
HIS own, true religion - Islam.

We won't have need for Christ or Moses
What purpose do they now have for us?
And the CIA that trouble causes
We'll simply throw under the bus.

And then, atop white horses riding,
We'll crush the villains at their crux.
Who secretly in Pentagon are hiding,
And on TV, on the channel Fox.

The parties' quarrels irritating
Will melt like a snow on a grassy knoll
With all Republicans rotating
To "socialistas" once and for all.

We'll all be happy and ecstatic
Ourselves and neighbors loving while.
And if you're not... Well, there's the Arctic
Where one may end up in exile.

The sky gets dark, the night is scary.
A frost chained any glimpse of thought.
It's cold and we're feeling wary...
Can't we stop madness's onslaught?

We ran from it, yet again it's shown
In Socialism's ugly scowl.
It's so familiar, so known.
Shall we run again? But where now?

But what the hell would they know? They just lived through it, that's all. I'm sure they are just imagining what they see going on here....prolly brainwashed by Rush Limbaugh er sumthin.....
IN HONOR OF ALL THOSE WHO TRIED, BUT GOT CAUGHT LYING AND FAILED TO KEEP UP THE GLOBAL WARMING HOAX.

S'ok, lil' Moonbats! Looks like you'll still get the totalitarian state you've been craving (between bong hits). The Obamessiah is busy bringing us to our knees militarily and economically. We'll all be BEGGING him to own us!

Its a sad day when Beavis and Butthead are more intelligent than your average PhD, and yet the level of ignorance and insanity produced by what were once institutions of higher learning makes the boys look positively TOP DRAWER.


"CONGRATULATIONS. YOU HAVE BEEN GRANTED THE HONOR OF MY GLORIOUS PRESENCE!"

That was the decree from ol' Jugears to the PM of India. From Moonbattery:

"Yours is the first official state visit of my presidency, its fitting that you and India be so recognised," 48-year-old Obama told the 77-year-old Indian leader.

In other words, "I, your lord, have chosen you be honored. Aren't I wonderful and gracious? Don't you think I'm wonderful? But enough about me, what do you think of me?"


To be fair though, how could he have built his huge religious cult of personality if he didn't really think of himself like this? It was necessary to bring about the Totalitarian Change we are busy rushing into like a liberal soul dropping into the maw of hell.

Whatever it takes to help people, ya know.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

From two of my favorite Super Stars, Zo and Crowder:


I know. It's not right. I should be ashamed. It's like makin' fun of Chairman Mao or something, before he killed 50-70 MILLION people. I really shouldn't demonize him, and I sure shouldn't demonize one of his admirers. After all, they both were only concerned with heeeelping people.


Ok, ok. Chairman Zero has never been reported to have said he admired Mao. He just appointed a COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR that told school children that the mass-mudering Mao was someone to be admired.

The only people that deserve to be demonized, are those that believe in freedom over slavery. Like the horrible, un-American tea- party -people. And Glenn Beck.

Forgive my extremism. I'll try to better.

JUST IN TIME FOR THE HOLIDAYS!
