Yes, yes, I know it’s neither Tuesday nor Friday, but...well...!
1. More Than Coincidence?
Have a few monitory tidbits from Freedom Outpost:
#21 The U.S. government has spent an astounding 3.7 trillion dollars on welfare programs over the past five years.#31 If you assume that the labor force participation rate in the U.S. is at the long-term average, the unemployment rate in the United States would actually be 11.5 percent instead of 7 percent.
#47 After accounting for inflation, 40 percent of all U.S. workers are making less than what a full-time minimum wage worker made back in 1968.
#48 When Barack Obama took office, the average duration of unemployment in this country was 19.8 weeks. Today, it is 37.2 weeks.
#63 Back in 1950, more than 80 percent of all men in the United States had jobs. Today, less than 65 percent of all men in the United States have jobs.
#82 Back in 1972, 46 percent of all Americans believed that “most people can be trusted”. Today, only 32 percent of all Americans believe that “most people can be trusted”.
We are being impoverished, made into clients of the State, and driven apart from one another -- simultaneously. Does it matter at all whether this is the intended outcome?
2. Civility Watch.
Apparently, the newest Obamunist hire, John Podesta, doesn’t like conservatives or Republicans and doesn’t care who knows it:
Today, Politico confirmed that governing-by-executive-fiat is exactly what Podesta has in mind. The only shocking part of the story is Podesta's justification for shredding the Constitution:In effect, I was told, it represents the clearest sign to date of the administration’s interest in shifting the paradigm of Obama’s presidency through the forceful, unapologetic and occasionally provocative application of White House power. Podesta, whose official mandate includes enforcement of numerous executive orders on emissions and the environment, suggested as much when he spoke with me earlier this fall about Obama’s team. “They need to focus on executive action given that they are facing a second term against a cult worthy of Jonestown in charge of one of the houses of Congress,” he told me.That's right. Obama's new counselor, the man in charge of saving his presidency, believes the Republican Party is a murderous cult and that this justifies Obama's extra-constitutional use of executive power.
Let’s have a few pictures of Podesta’s face with a crosshairs over it and see how he, his masters, and his buddies in the media react.
3. Did You Really Believe It’s Just A Myth?
The 2012 presidential election wasn’t one of the very closest in American history – Hayes v Tilden was a lot closer, as was Bush v. Gore – but one side definitely did what it could to widen its margin of victory:
Ohio Secretary of State Jon Husted announced Wednesday that his office found 17 non-citizens illegally cast ballots in the 2012 presidential election -- and has referred the case for possible prosecution...."I have a responsibility to uphold election law, and under both federal and state law you must be a citizen to vote," said Husted, a Republican who has aggressively tried to investigate voter fraud cases in his state....
As part of Ohio's efforts to clean up the voting rolls, election officials discovered that more than 257,000 dead people were still listed as active voters. Their names and status, Husted said, have since been removed.
In addition, election authorities note they have drastically reduced the number of duplicate registrations, from 340,000 in 2011 to just four this past November -- and that more than 370,000 Ohio voters who have moved have been contacted to update their voting information.
Remember that the federal Department of Justice, under that great American Eric “A Nation of Cowards” Holder, did its best to prevent the cleansing of illegitimate entries from the states’ voters’ rolls before the 2012 elections.
4. Beware The Enraged Pansy!
When Duck Dynasty’s Phil Robertson said the following:
“It seems like, to me, a woman’s vagina would be more desirable than a man’s anus. That’s just me,” Robertson told the magazine. “I’m just thinking: There’s more there! She’s got more to offer. I mean, come on, dudes! You know what I’m saying? But hey, sin: It’s not logical, my man. It’s just not logical.”When the reporter asked Robertson what he found sinful, he said “Start with homosexual behavior and just morph out from there. Bestiality, sleeping around with this woman and that woman and that woman and those men.”
The self-proclaimed religious convert then went on to paraphrase Corinthians: “Don’t be deceived. Neither the adulterers, the idolaters, the male prostitutes, the homosexual offenders, the greedy, the drunkards, the slanderers, the swindlers—they won’t inherit the kingdom of God. Don’t deceive yourself. It’s not right.”
...many commentators noted that the Arts & Entertainment network, which is heavily supported by homosexual-activist groups, would be put under intense pressure to penalize him.
On December 18th A&E suspended Duck Dynasty patriarch Phil Robertson "indefinitely" for comments he made regarding his views on homosexuality.The comments came during an interview appearing in the January issue of GQ magazine.
According to the Chicago Tribune, A&E released the following statement in response: "We are extremely disappointed to have read Phil Robertson's comments in GQ, which are based on his own personal beliefs and are not reflected in the series Duck Dynasty."
Duck Dynasty is the most popular show on television today. You’d think that would lend its stars a certain amount of clout. Apparently those Panjandrums of Sodomitic Perversion, the American Association of Fudge-Packers and Meat-Smokers -- i.e., the homosexual-activist groups -- are stronger. There’s a lesson in there, somewhere.
5. Stick To The Scripts You’re Handed, Sweetie.
Cate Blanchett is a gifted actress, a beautiful woman...and a complete and total air-head:
Cate Blanchett, who is paid a reported $10 million to appear in perfume advertisements, would like to discuss the sacrifices made by herself and other planet-saving celebrities:We need to keep switching up the language around climate change. For so long we’ve talked about sacrifice and people get discredited for what they haven’t given up. [Celebrities] get criticised for taking flights, but the truth is someone like Leo [DiCaprio] takes fewer flights than he’s asked to. If we want it to stay on the radar, we need to focus on the fact there’s a lot of opportunity.We truly do not appreciate their suffering.
Miss Blanchett is entitled to her opinions, but apparently she doesn’t have enough mental horsepower to recognize the damage her comments are doing to the very cause she champions. Well, if actors were brainy, they’d be quantum physicists, right? Right?
That’s all for today, Gentle Reader. Good night and have a pleasant tomorrow.
Regarding voter fraud: A friend of mine volunteered in 2008 to drive voters to the polls. He did this in California. He went there three days before the elction so he would know the routes and pickup points. On election day he found out that he was part of the scam. He would show up at a street corner to pick up "voters" and about 6-8 homeless men and a "handler" would get in and he would drive them to the polling place. The handler gave each of the bums a card with their name and address to use and who to vote for. Then he would drive the same group to a diffrent polling lace and the handler gave out new cards with new names on them. He did this for six polling places and then drove them back to the dropoff point where the handler gave each of the men a $20. My friend questioned the handler about this tactic and was told to shut hs mouth and do his job. Which is what he did; all day long until the polls closed he drove a group of bums to multile polling places voting for dead people and people who had been signed up to vote in the months before election but who weren't going to vote. When he told me the story I new it had been an eye opener for him but I also suspect he voted for Obama in 2012. He did not volunteer to help anymore.
