Prepare To Fall In Love With Senator Ron Johnson

Chicks on the Right   "You HAVE to see how Sen. Ron Johnson responds to Sen. Rockefeller's unwarranted charge of racism. You'll want to stand up and scream BRAVO."
 

 
Ron Johnson Goes Off On Dem: 'God Help You For Implying I'm A Racist'  ... "Johnson, speaking at the hearing, accused Rockefeller of "playing the race card."
 
" 'My opposition to health care has nothing to do with the race of President Obama," Johnson said. "I objected to this because it's an assault on our freedom. ... I found it very offensive that you would basically imply that I'm a racist because I oppose this health care law."
 
"'You're evidently satisfied with a lot of people not having health insurance," Rockefeller responded." ...

"Our son didn't murder those people in Isla Vista, guns did!"

Thomas Lifson  "While it is understandable, perhaps, to wish to deflect their own responsibility in having raised someone who is “suspected” of being a homicidal madman and not seeing to it that he was institutionalized, the inconvenient fact is that the first three victims were murdered by use of a knife or knives. Total gun confiscation would not have saved half of the homicide victims. And Rodger’s rampage injured other people with his car, deliberately steering into a bicyclist and a skateboarder.
 
"Quite clearly, he is “suspected” of using whatever weapons were at hand to allegedly kill and injure people in a rage."
Remembering Victims of the Isla Vista Rampage

Isla Vista Shooting Victims Identified   "GOLETA, Calif. (AP) — A gunman went on a rampage Friday night near the University of California, Santa Barbara that left seven people dead, including him. Here are the stories of the six victims, who were all students at the university."

Here is much more about this murderer than you probably care to know

Apparently this is how PC-approved "settled science" becomes "settled" (UPDATED)

 A Heated Debate: Are Climate Scientists Being Forced to Toe the Line?
Lennart Bengtsson says he was pressured by colleagues to step down from his role at the controversial Global Warming Policy Foundation.
 
"After joining a controversial lobby group critical of climate change, meteorologist Lennart Bengtsson claims he was shunned by colleagues, leading him to quit. Some scientists complain pressure to conform to consensus opinion has become a serious hindrance in the field."
 
"The scientist said colleagues placed so much pressure on him after joining GWPF that he withdrew from the group out of fear for his own health. Bengtsson added that his treatment had been reminiscent of the persecution of suspected Communists in the United States during the era of McCarthyism in the 1950s."
 
I suggest to you that the term, "flat-earthers" should best be applied to the man-caused global warming advocates. That the earth was flat was "settled science" back in the day as was the theory that the sun moved around the earth. Only courageous scientists such as Dr. Bengtsson dare challenge the financially advantageous position that the global warmists live off of.
This is the price scientists such as Lennart Bengtsson have to pay:
But Bengtsson insists that even close colleagues shunned him. He says that one research partner, apparently fearing damage to his reputation, withdrew from a study they had been conducting together. Bengtsson added no further details other than to state that the incident had been hurtful.

UPDATE: Where Did ’97 Percent’ Global Warming Consensus Figure Come From?  “ 'It is astonishing that any journal could have published a paper claiming a 97% climate consensus when on the authors’ own analysis the true consensus was well below 1%,” said Dr. David Legates, a geology professor at the University of Delaware and the study’s lead author."
A politician who agrees with those PC flat-earthers pronounces the "proper" point of view:
"Secretary of State John Kerry told an audience in Mexico on Wednesday that temperatures in Europe and in Vietnam were “unprecedented” and broke “every record that’s ever been seen.” However, although it was hot that day, he was off the mark."

Reading list: life under liberalism

Victor Davis Hanson; The Obama Administration’s Ethics Problem 
Mr. Hanson lists case after case of this administration's poor character, then concludes with this:
 ... "The common denominator?

"In all of these cases, politics trumped ethics. Because Obama professed that he was on the side of the proverbial people, administrators assumed that they had a blank check to do or say what they wished without much media audit. The mystery is not whether some administration officials were incompetent or unethical or both, but whether there are any left who are not."

"The message?

“ 'Dave and Ed just don’t get it: By branding Ukip racists they’re damning millions of decent Britains”-Stephen Glover, Daily Mail, May 22, 2014.

"Obama comrade, Prime Minister David Cameron, Labour Leader Ed Miliband and Liberal Leader Nick Clegg threw everything but the proverbial kitchen sink at Ukip trying to impact their voter turnout by branding them “racists”.

"But supposedly low information voters in Britain didn’t buy the Party propaganda."

Redistribution masquerading as reparations 
http://www.msnbc.com/melissa-harris-perry/watch/the-unjust-nature-of-us-racial-caste-system-265110595694
 ... "There is a complete disconnect between cause and effect — anyone with a particular skin color is presumed to be a victim of policies even from generations earlier. It’s a simplistic and non-evidentiary approach which generalizes anecdotes and ignores the myriad of factors that influence success or failure in life.

"Rather, this is a societal redistribution, in which the not actually guilty pay, and the not actually injured get compensated, via the power of government to redistribute wealth.
It’s just redistribution with a different justification."

MSNBC, of course.

A Performance Review; The president needs a lot of improvement.

Fred Barnes  "The public’s judgment of President Obama is that his performance in office is not so great. Nearly every opinion poll shows that more Americans disapprove of how he’s doing his job than approve. Sometimes the gap between disapprove and approve is more than 10 percentage points.
Gary Locke

"But public opinion isn’t the only way to assess a president’s effectiveness. In 2000, Fred Greenstein, a scholar of the presidency at Princeton, came up with six “qualities that bear on presidential performance.” While they are subjective measures open to disagreement, they’re nonideological, nonpartisan, and they offer a useful way to judge presidents.
 
"So the question is: Does Obama exhibit the qualities Greenstein says are important for any president? Let’s look at the six:" ...   Full article...

Sen. Corker: White House Meeting About Obama’s Foreign Policy ‘One Of The Most Bizarre I’ve Attended’

CBS DC
Senate Foreign Relations Committee ranking member Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., and Chairman Robert Menendez, D-N.J., hold a news conference at the U.S. Capitol on March 27, 2014 in Washington, D.C. (credit: Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images)
 
... "Another senator who attended the meeting said Obama’s advisers refused to provide lawmakers with answers about whether the president plans to keep U.S. troops in Afghanistan after the war formally concludes later this year or about the Pentagon’s efforts to find nearly 300 kidnapped Nigerian school girls.

"Unsatisfied, some of the lawmakers started to leave one by one before the meeting had finished....

"The meetings, which have been taking place both at the White House and on Capitol Hill, come as Obama prepares for a speech Wednesday at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, New York, where he is expected to try to answer critics who say he has surrendered America’s global leadership and faltered on problems in the Middle East, Russia, China and beyond." ...
 

Obama, Benghazi, and that 3 AM phone call

During The Benghazi Attack, The White House Called… YouTube     ... "The memo suggests that even as the attack was still underway — and before the CIA began the process of compiling talking points on its analysis of what happened — the White House believed it was in retaliation for a controversial video." ... Was this that three AM phone call we discussed in 2008?

US Hero Waited 20 Hrs. on Benghazi Rooftop While Obama Called YouTube & Went Campaigning "Diplomatic security agent David Ubben, like former Navy SEALs Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty, ran into the Special Mission Compound (SMC) to help save US officials under siege in Benghazi. Ubben was struck by a mortar round that killed Woods and Doherty. His leg was shredded. Ubben was forced to wait twenty hours before a plane was sent to pick him up.

"While Ubben was waiting for help with a shredded leg the Obama White House called YouTube and the president flew off to campaign in Las Vegas."

More e-mails…another thorn in Obama’s side   "And so the clouds of Benghazi gather yet again over the White House as e-mails have surfaced showing that Barack HUSSEIN Obama…this most traitorous of men…contacted YouTube about the infamous ‘Innocence of Muslims’ video while the attacks at Benghazi were ongoing. This is serious stuff folks as it shows that while Obama did NOT send troops to help our people under attack at the mission…saying there was NOT enough time to save them (and how did he know the time frame while the attack was ongoing unless he helped plan it)…but he did have time to call YouTube and lay the foundation for the LIE that the attack was caused by said video. "

"And these e-mails unequivocally prove that the video accusations did NOT come from the CIA as Obama and his minions claimed…as they came BEFORE the CIA even began comprising their own talking points on what they believed happened that night"....

Dangerous Times: Benghazi Means Betrayal   "Obama has known about  ‘Eid butchery since he attended Muslim school in Jakarta from age six to ten. Al Qaida simply applies animal butchery to human children and other innocents, if they refuse to convert to Islam."

Honoring, or Mocking, Those Whom Died for Our Freedoms and Democratic Ideals?

Voice of Lillpop
 
... "Some questions to ponder:

"1. Our government is run by an administration that ignores Constitutionally-protected freedom of religion by demanding that services which violate the religious beliefs of certain groups be provided by those groups, contrary to Amendment 1 of the US Constitution.

"The same Obama administration consistently ignores and circumvents existing immigration law so as to curry favor with illegal aliens whom are being targeted as future Democrats.  This extraordinary violation of the rule of law ignores the will and needs of millions of American citizens, including Veterans, in order to pander to those whom have invaded America.

"How many American lives were sacrificed so that our renegade government could ignore basic religious freedoms to 65 million Americans, and ignore our borders and immigration laws for political gain?
...
"Conclusion:

"Given the cynical, anti-American policies of the Obama Administration, those Americans whom have sacrificed their all for America are, regrettably, being mocked this Memorial Day.

"The good news is that our Constitution, battered and abused as it is, is still viable.

"Solution?

"We the people must remember the American war dead on November 4 and vote to remove those whom refuse to honor the sacrifices made on our behalf.

"Do it in memory of the brave men and women who died for our freedoms and liberty!"

The Blame Bush Meme*

The Right Planet
"Blame Bush … because we are Democrats! And we are as pure as the wind-driven snow. That’s why we are never wrong. We, the liberal Democrats, can’t be wrong, because we are liberal Democrats. Of course, it’s Bush’s fault. Who else’s fault would it be? Not George Bush?

"HAHAHAHA!!!!

"Only those who are not liberals can be fascists or racists … like George Bush … or you, if you’re not a progressive liberal. If you are reading this, and you don’t agree, you are racist or fascist, possibly both, and maybe worse. This has been confirmed by British researchers. Everybody knows that. "      More here. Unless George Bush has hacked your computer, of course.

A meme acts as a unit for carrying cultural ideas, symbols, or practices that can be transmitted from one mind to another through writing, speech, gestures, rituals, or other imitable phenomena with a mimicked theme.

Message from Hell — An Interview with a Former Black Panther

Noisy Room   "This is a riveting and revealing discussion with former Black Panther Anthony Bryant, who is interviewed by G. Edward Griffin on his experience as a prisoner in Castro’s prisons in the video above.

"The late Mr. Bryant hijacked a National Airlines jetliner en route from New York to Miami and directed it to Cuba back in 1969. He was arrested in Cuba and spent 10 years in prison after being accused of being a CIA agent by Cuban authorities. Tony Bryant authored the book Hijacked and detailed his experiences as a prisoner in Castro’s Cuba."
...
" ...Informers working for the CDR watched everyone twenty-four hours a day, and marked down anyone who came into the block. If someone visited someone’s home and stayed longer than a few hours, the police would pay them a visit to see what they were doing. You cannot visit neighbors and stay as long as you like, even if you’re invited. If you do, you will be arrested, according to Bryant."

It was at this time that Bryant began to question his own belief and devotion to socialist-style revolution. Bryant asked, “Was this what they had been fighting for?” Bryant attributes his turn away from Communism to God.
One of the YouTube commenters claims he has this video interview with G. Edward Griffin and Anthony Bryant on VHS tape, and expressed displeasure with the individual who posted the video, alleging a portion of the video had been cut off at the very end … the portion where Bryant allegedly says, “Communism is humanity’s vomit; and we need to clean it up.”
