P.C. Society

“We can not sacrifice our national identity, our national heritage, and our national honor on the dual alters of multi-culturalism and political correctness.”

Edward J. Bates

What happened to the right of free speech?  Does that only apply when you are politically correct?  It isn’t supposed to be like that, but the liberal government and their lap dog media has made it so.  Liberals use to say that “I may not agree with what you say, but I will fight for your right to say it.”  Now these same people attack, degrade, and try to assassinate you character if you disagree.

If you refuse to buy into their politically correct views on society, they will go as far as to take your job, or even your freedom.  They have things turned upside down.  Freedom of speech applies to the smut dealers who corrupt our children, but does not apply to a preacher talking about God?  They make heroes of people like Louis Farrakhan and Reverend Jeremiah Wright who spout their hate, and demonize David, Duke, and Matthew Hale for preaching their brand of hate.  They are all the same, just at other ends of the spectrum.  Allow them all to preach what they will, let the people decide if they want to listen to them or not.  The First Amendment gives them the right to be wrong, or even stupid or objectionable.  Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes said, “If there is any principle of the constitution that imperatively calls for attachment than any other, it is the principle of free thought, no free thought for those who agree with us, but free thought for the thought that we hate.”  It matters nothing if it is stupid or flat out wrong, you shouldn’t be able to stop it, nor should you want to.  If your side is so right it should not matter how many people stand against you, your rightness should shine through.  Could it be you are trying to suppress what is right in order to keep control?

Just like 1984, you either tote the party line or you will pay.  How dare you speak you mind!  When you speak it they will tell you things like, “Nobody else complained,” or, “You’re the only one who feels that way.”  Then if you don’t relent, then you are attacked.  Don’t you know these people deserve your special treatment?  They are special, they are black, they are women, or they are gay.  Don’t say a word against it.  If you do you are a racist.

What?  You don’t agree with Affirmative Action?  Then you are a racist.  You don’t want women in certain jobs?  Then you have to be sexist.  You don’t like the idea of gay marriage?  You must be a homophobe.

Let’s not look at the facts that the people was not qualified to hold them jobs or that it goes completely against everything your morals and your religion stands for.  You are not supposed to look at those feelings.  Only racist do that.  Good party people are like dead fish going with the flow.

This religion of multi-culturalism, tolerance, and political correctness is nothing but cultural suicide.  So go ahead and let them take you identity, your heritage, and your pride and become the politically correct pansy they want you to be. 

Liberalism: Its Ills, Evils, Lies, and Loyal Allies

America became a country that benefited from the blending of cultures, but we are, or at least was, America first and foremost.   That was the miracle of our nation. 

We could have been best described as a diverse people with a shared ideal of freedom; we represent a variety of nationalities, but are one nation; we have many voices, but one tongue; we are Americans.  That veritable melting pot that turned us from the many to one. 

We are now better described as a junk pile, with each part keeping its own distinct shape and function that ends up working against the greater good.  Instead of coming together in that melting pot to be forged into that unbreakable steel to protect our nation, we allowed them to keep us separate, weak, and unstable.

These liberals are hell bent on destroying the very fabric of our culture, which is the melting pot, in order to destroy our American history, which they call a myth, which holds us together. 

They pile on top of us a collective guilt that says we are oppressors of _____________.  (Fill in the blank.)  So now we must make it up by giving what we have, in order to form their utopian fantasy of a multi-cultured society they know is unreachable.  Their rue quest is simple.  It’s power.

General Douglas Macarthur said, “The great threat in what is presently called communism, the imperialistic tendency or lust for power that squeezes out every one of the freedoms which we value so greatly.”  He meant that this threat has been around for some time, just under a different name, and it is still around.  Today the greatest threat is liberalism, which really isn’t that far from communism.  Think about it.  Liberalism’s half brother is socialism, and the first cousin to socialism is none other than communism.  It is not much of a leap from liberalism to communism.  It’s barely a hop.

There are two things that liberalism will never allow or tolerate, they are unchecked individualism and to be left alone.  These so called lovers of free thinking, of free speech  are only so loving and understanding when you agree with them.  For those who preach tolerance so rabidly, are the least tolerant when you disagree with them.  Rather 1984-ish, does two plus two still equal four?

What is really scary is it doesn’t matter how many disagree with them.  They can do what they choose.  What they can’t win in the ballot box they will force through the courts.  Now with them in total control of every branch of government it will get worse.

The liberal agenda is fairly simple.  They, and their lap dogs in the media and in education, are going to stay their course.  They have no opposition.  So they can keep right on stealing out nation blind and molesting the Statue of Liberty all the while explaining to the sheep that they are working and sacrificing for them.  They are doing what is best for you, knowing you can’t do that for yourself.  They are protecting you from yourself and the evils of this world they want to appease.  Why people believe this bull is beyond comprehension.  They believe every word these liberals say. Whatever happened to the notion of trusting yourself?  Who are these people to make your decisions?  They don’t even know you, how then do they know what you need?  Don’t you want self-determination?  Don’t you want to live your won life, spend your own money and control your own destiny?  Don’t you want freedom?

Wake up, America!     

Rip The Band-aid Off

Do you remember when you were a kid and you very slowly tried to pull off a stuck band-aid and it hurt far worse than when your mother just ripped it off quickly? All you were doing was prolonging the agony, but somehow you just didn't see it that way and kept on doing it. I still catch myself to this day slowly peeling it off, like it will hurt less. That's exactly what we are doing with this country, slowly pulling the band-aid away.

As I look at the field of the present republican candidates for president and those in Congress, those who we are hoping to place our trust in to save our nation, I am not very reassured. Most are nothing but democrat light and those that are not are not just being attacked by the democrats and their lapdog media, but the elitist progressive republicans as well who are afraid to lose their status, and who would take us to the same destination as Barrack Obama and the democrats just a little slower.

I am almost to the point of ripping of this countries band-aid. How? Let the progressives have it, it wouldn't take much for them to run our beloved nation into the ground. Heck, they have almost done that already with all the progressive bungling of the last two administrations. Pull a "John Galt" on them and stop the engine of the world. Just get out of the way and let them run the show, implementing all the social programs they can think of. Within 5-10 years when this nation falls from lack of other peoples money and other peoples protection, we can step in and rebuild our nation under the constitutional principles that served us so well for many years.

Just like lots of us conservatives argued against TARP and the other bailouts and stimulus bills, there is no such thing as "too big to fail", not even for America. If a bank fails, another bank, a solvent bank would step in to take its place. It would work the same way with the auto companies. Do you really thin GM and Chrysler would disappear? No. They would reorganize and if they couldn't, someone would buy them thinking they could make a better car cheaper. Just like Roger Penske wanted to do with Saturn, but the government got in the way. Sure it may have hurt for a little while, but it would have been quick. Then we could have started on recovery. Just Like Calvin Coolidge did with the depression of 1920. He let it reset and it didn't turn into the great depression (Which was only a great depression in America) like the next one did when Franklin D Roosevelt thought it best to prolong the agony by slowly pulling the band-aid off. Sadly we are repeating FDR's model, and not Coolidge, and it will turn out the same way. Bad.

Do you think it could work? Could we just pull away? Ayn Rand sure gave a convincing argument. It sounds awful tempting, but none of us will do it. Why? Because we are Americans and that means we are fighters and will fight tooth and nail to save the country we love. Even if we are riding into Balaclava with 599 others. We are that soldier that can't help sticking his head over the berm to see if they are using live ammo. I hope they aren't very good shots.

Is Weiner-Gate A Distraction?

Do you think for the last week or so that this story has been there to distract your attention? It sure seems that whenever these all consuming stories hit that lots of stuff goes under the radar. Just like now, have you heard that China is dumping our debt at an alarming rate? It seems that our friendly neighborhood banker no longer wants to loan us money, not only that, but is calling in their marker. Where are we going to get the money? Print it? Yeah, and the news keeps giving us the Obama mantra, our economy is on the mend. Why haven't we heard this from our great news sources? What does China know that our government hasn't quite figured out yet? Could it be that we our on the same road as Greece, Portugal, and Ireland?

Weiner-Gate

I really don't have all that much to say about the subject. I have more to say about the media coverage. That is all they have covered since the press conference, like it is the only thing in the world right now. Really? Breaking News? Come on CNN and the rest of the media. Are you really surprised? Everybody else was not shocked.
