Breitbart on The Cult of Cesar Chavez

Big Government   "Time and again, the left is shocked when the freedom and prosperity-hating personalities that they idolize and the statist systems that they dream up descend into chaos, madness, and violence. As shown in the Stephen K. Bannon film Occupy Unmasked, the peace and love movement of the 1960s supported the killing fields of the Khmer Rouge, while Occupy Wall Street invariably became the Black Bloc rioters running though city streets and breaking windows.

"Given the documented trajectory of "well-meaning" leftist movements and their leaders, it should come as no surprise that the ugly truth about Cesar Chavez is just starting to seep into the public consciousness twenty years after his death."
....
But catch this:
"Obviously, the biggest impact of Chavez has been on the presidency of Barack Obama. On the Huffington Post, Chavez biographer Randy Shaw said that the Chavez organizing and fundraising tactics “are an integral part of the Obama campaign.”

TheComicalConservative

"Three states celebrate Cesar Chavez Day as an official holiday. In 2011, President Barack Obama issued a proclamation declaring March 31st “Cesar Chavez Day.” Let’s hope that people begin to learn the truth about Cesar Chavez, the false god that Google chose to celebrate on Easter Sunday." 

Not an April Fools’ joke: Obama announces National Financial Capability Month

The TEA Party

By Jim Treacher at the Daily Caller  Is this irony, hubris or just plain obtuseness?

CNS News:

President Barack Obama, who has increased the national debt by $53,377 per household, has proclaimed April “National Financial Capability Month,” during which his administration will do things such as teach young people “how to budget responsibly.”
“I call upon all Americans to observe this month with programs and activities to improve their understanding of financial principles and practices,” Obama said in an official proclamation released Friday…
The president is required by law to submit a budget proposal for the next fiscal year by the first Monday in February.

Here is the video that I expect to go viral as a symbol of the entire Obama administration:

President Barack Obama, the greatest man in the history of the world

While millions of Americans celebrated Easter and Passover, Obama took time out of his “busy” day to celebrate Barack Obama.

"Chris Matthews called Obama “the perfect man,” but at some point some serious questions must be asked of the man who the media still thinks created God in Obama’s image.

"Forget perfect. Is Barack Obama even good?  Read more:

Here is a related video from the 2009 grooveyard of Obama tributes which we offer up to him, er, Him as an offering to His Magnificence.
 
All sources we tried had the commercial at the end. Sorry.

Obama Image Machine Whirs as Press Access Narrows

NY Times  "A photo of the Obamas hugging that was released on Election Day 2012 has become the world's most popular tweet on Twitter. A dressed-up version of Barack Obama's State of the Union speech, packed with charts and graphs, is huge on YouTube. A playful picture of the president cavorting with a 3-year-old in a Spiderman costume is a favorite online. 

     

"It's all courtesy of the Obama image machine, serving up a stream of words, images and videos that invariably cast the president as commanding, compassionate and on the ball. In this world, Obama's family is always photogenic, first dog Bo is always well-behaved and the vegetables in the South Lawn kitchen garden always seem succulent.

"You'll have to look elsewhere for bloopers, bobbles or contrary points of view"

ObamaCare; the worlds worst blind date

 

White libs more racist than white supremacists

Mychal Massie  ...."They publicly resent women who do not ascribe to the mentality of the feminist agenda. When have you heard a white liberal speak praisingly of a woman who is pro-family, anti-abortion and who openly advocates that wives treat their husbands with biblical respect?

"White liberals are driven by grievances both real and imagined. Their solutions to problems they identify as injustices to blacks and inequality for women is to blame the historically white male establishment. Their solutions are reparations based, i.e., even if there were, in fact, one person injured as they define same, for them that is empirical evidence of a systemic racism and/or gender bias. Ergo, all persons of color and women are entitled to special dispensations based on a pandemic of social injustice.

"I am prepared to argue that the only reason white liberals bow before Obama is because he is half-Kenyan with a Muslim name who harbors the deepest of resentment for traditional America. I would further argue that the only reason they embrace his wife is because she behaves in a way that is commensurate with their low opinions of blacks."

White House won’t condemn Easter sermon charging ‘religious right’ with racism

Washington Examiner "White House Press Secretary Jay Carney walked a line between refusing to criticize the pastor who charged the “religious right” with racism while distancing President Obama from the remarks by emphasizing that the Obama family only attended  the church service due to tradition.
" “I wasn’t there and I have not spoken with the president,” Carney told reporters. “I know that he enjoys going to easter(sic) services with his family. “In keeping with the tradition that dates back many presidencies, he went right across the park here to St. John’s Episcopal Church and attended services there.”
"During the Easter service, the Rev. Dr. Luis Leon said that  “It drives me crazy when the captains of the religious right are always calling us back … for blacks to be back in the back of the bus … for women to be back in the kitchen … for immigrants to be back on their side of the border,” according to the pool report."

Rush Limbaugh weighed in on this today as well.

"The president of the United States chose a preacher whose sermon was devoted to claiming that Republicans want to force blacks to ride at the back of the bus again, a preacher who, in his sermon, said Republican want to make women go back to the kitchen, and the Obamas were probably flashing back to the old Reverend Wright days and thinking, "Man, it's good to be home."  Jesus' resurrection and Easter. Now, that's for The Bible TV show on Sunday night.  When you go to an Obama church service, all you're gonna get is Republicans being blasted."

....

".... the president inspires it, inspires racism.  It may well be the case.  I'm sure that the "person" there -- the Episcopalian person, Luis Leon -- knew that Obama was coming in advance. You know he'd have to for security and all that. So he probably said, "All right, I'm gonna really rev it up now."  So Obama's presence inspires this guy to go all divisive, all racist and start jamming on the Republicans for wanting blacks in the back of the bus and women in the back of the kitchen, when he can't name a single person who does. But the president of the United States, you may be right, may have inspired that in this preacher, and then sat there and listened to it -- and, by definition, approvingly so, by not getting up and leaving it, and by not criticizing it when he walks out.  Which does not surprise me.  I know that this president's not interested in unifying people.  But a lot of people think he is."

Obama has brought out the worst of this nation and caused divisions that will be a long time healing.

America's Big Fat Advantage (is visceral Hollywood's newest villain)

Victor Davis Hanson  " "Peak oil" and our "oil addiction" were supposed to have ensured that we ran out of either gas or the money to buy it. Now, suddenly, we have more gas and oil than ever before. But the key question is: Why do we?

"The oil and gas renaissance was brought on by horizontal drilling and fracking that opened up vast new reserves either previously unknown or considered unrecoverable. Both technological breakthroughs were American discoveries, largely brought on by entrepreneurial mavericks and engineers exploring on mostly private lands. Couldn't the Saudi, Venezuelan or Nigerian oil industry have discovered these new methods of resource recovery, given their nations' reliance on petroleum exportation?"

Sergeant Peter Cimpoes - A Ranger You Should Know

Blackfive

Lt. Gen. Robert Brown, First Corps Commander, presents Sgt. Peter Cimpoes with the

Silver Star Medal at 2nd Battalion, 75th Ranger Regiment's award ceremony March 20,

 2013 at St. Martin University's Marcus Pavilion in Lacey, Wash.

 (U.S. Army photo by Staff Sgt. David T. Chapman)

Sgt. Cimpoes received the award for his actions during a night combat operation in Ghazni Province, Afghanistan, Oct. 11, 2012. During a heavy firefight with enemy insurgents in a targeted compound, Sgt. Cimpoes climbed to the roof of a one story building in order to reach two wounded Rangers. Once Sgt. Cimpoes reached the roof, he selflessly exposed himself to enemy fire and engaged and killed three enemy insurgents, who were as close as five meters away, with direct fire and grenades. Sgt. Cimpoes then maintained his suppressive fire against two additional barricaded shooters allowing other Rangers to evacuate the wounded from the roof to a casualty collection point. His actions ultimately saved the lives of two of his fellow Rangers.
