Allen West: I’ve ‘Heard’ That 80 House Democrats Are Communist Party Members

 

 

Wow, NRO actually fired him. 1960's NRO is so disappointed in today's NRO.

 

 

They fired another racist writer today.

Too bad all those race-baiters brought race unnecessarily into the media spotlight.

Allen West: I’ve ‘Heard’ That 80 House Democrats Are Communist Party Members

 

I have a list of 205 names of State Department employees....

I know this will come as a complete shock to many, but the states with abstinence-only education have the highest rates of teen pregnancy. How can this possibly be?!!

Its still abstinence if I pull out right?!

Can anyone tell what the hell he's referencing here?

 

“One of the problems we have even as Christians is I’ll guarantee you most Christians cannot tell you the two parables Jesus taught about capital gains tax, nor can the tell you the four verses in the Bible that condemn the estate tax, nor can they tell you what Jesus said in Matthew 20 about minimum wage,” evangelical Christian minister David Martin, who is a former co-chair of the Texas Republican Party, explained. “We let the secular people tell us how economics is supposed to be run. God told us how to run economics.”

I know Mathew 20

 

1 “For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire workers for his vineyard. 2 He agreed to pay them a denarius[a] for the day and sent them into his vineyard.

 

3 “About nine in the morning he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing nothing. 4 He told them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is right.’ 5 So they went.

 

“He went out again about noon and about three in the afternoon and did the same thing. 6 About five in the afternoon he went out and found still others standing around. He asked them, ‘Why have you been standing here all day long doing nothing?’

 

7 “‘Because no one has hired us,’ they answered.

 

“He said to them, ‘You also go and work in my vineyard.’

 

8 “When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last ones hired and going on to the first.’

 

9 “The workers who were hired about five in the afternoon came and each received a denarius. 10 So when those came who were hired first, they expected to receive more. But each one of them also received a denarius. 11 When they received it, they began to grumble against the landowner. 12 ‘These who were hired last worked only one hour,’ they said, ‘and you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the work and the heat of the day.’

 

13 “But he answered one of them, ‘I am not being unfair to you, friend. Didn’t you agree to work for a denarius? 14 Take your pay and go. I want to give the one who was hired last the same as I gave you. 15 Don’t I have the right to do what I want with my own money? Or are you envious because I am generous?’

 

16 “So the last will be first, and the first will be last.”

 

I dont know the 4 verses on estate tax though.

Yeah I was able to find that one, but I'd be interested in how he interprets that into what I can only assume is an anti-minimum-wage policy.

 

But I don't remember the Sermon on The Mount Part 2: Capital gains rates and the DEATH TAX!!!!

I missed that one, but saw the sequel -- Charlton Heston was quite compelling as a hedge fund manager meandering across the fertile crescent.

Remember when the Tea Party was supposedly some new movement of fiscal conservatism? But it was just transparently the same movement conservatism that's been around for decades, and as soon as they got into office they decided to focus primarily on social issues?

You should have read the comments on the official Sox facebook page when they announced this a few days ago.

I'm probably really glad I didn't, aren't I?

Yes. That pretty much goes for every comment section ever.

Booker also had that phenomenal answer at a press conference shortly after Chris Christie cowardly vetoed a gay marriage bill.

I was embarrassed for humanity after reading that one.

Africans shocked by uncivilized antics of European savages

 

DAKAR. Africans say they have little hope that Europe will ever become civilized, after a week in which Spain’s King Carlos went on an elephant-killing spree and the Swedish Culture Minister was entertained by a racially offensive cake. “You can take the European out of the jungle, but you can’t take the jungle out of the European,” sighed one resident of Kinshasa.

 

August Mwanasa, of Libreville in Gabon, said the latest atrocities didn’t surprise him as Europeans were still “savages”.

 

“I don’t want to sound racist, and some of my best friend are white, but let’s be honest: violence is hard-wired into their DNA,” said Mwanasa. “I mean, Europeans killed over 20 million other Europeans in the 1930s and 1940s. That’s barbarism on a scale unprecedented in history.”

 

Jenkins Odumbe, a Nairobi milliner, bemoaned ingrained attitudes of entitlement in Europe.

 

“If they’re not going on the dole they’re asking for bail-outs,” he said. “Why can’t they just get up earlier and work harder, that’s what I want to know?”

 

Liberte Aidoo, a Ghanaian travel agent, said she had been “shocked and disgusted” by what she found on her first trip to Spain.

 

“The brochures promise sea and sun, but they’re still incredibly backward in Spain,” she recalled. “Basically they all live in mud huts called haciendas, and they sleep for two hours in the middle of the day. In Europe they call it a ‘siesta’. In Ghana we call it ‘being f***ing lazy’.”

 

But, she added, this kind of “depressing inertia” was to be expected in a country with more debt than most of Africa combined.

 

Meanwhile, most Africans have dismissed calls for Swedish Culture Minister Lena Adelsohn Liljeroth to resign following the debacle in which she was photographed eating a cake designed to look like a racist caricature of an African woman.

 

“The only people calling for her to resign are European liberals hiding behind a thin veneer of civilization,” explained Burundian sociologist, Descarte Tugiramahoro. “We Africans are not shocked in the slightest.

 

“All she’s doing is engaging in two ancient European rituals: giggling at people who look different, and symbolic cannibalism, as introduced by the Catholic Church. It’s all completely normal.”

Sunday morning news shows: overwhelmingly Republican white males.

 

 

While the lean towards the right is more pronounced than in years past thanks to the contentious Republican nomination contest, the heavy favor that Sunday show bookers have towards Republicans is not new. In 2004, a mirror image of 2012 in that Democrats were looking to unseat a Republican incumbent in the White House, Republicans still held a 57-43 percent edge in 2003, and a 56-44 percent advantage in 2004.

 

Half the women appearances were Bachmann and half the minority appearances were Cain.

Damn liberal media.

Sunday morning news shows: overwhelmingly Republican white males.

 

 

 

 

Half the women appearances were Bachmann and half the minority appearances were Cain.

 

Talk about having to scrape the bottom of the barrel in order to get the results they were looking for. Sunday Morning News? Lowest rated, least watched time slot available is dominated by white republicans nobody is awake to watch. Talk about reaching.

 

Find a more significant story.

 

EDIT: I'd actually be interested in seeing a similar study based on prime time slots, versus a time slot where the networks target audience is probably old retired white people, as they're the only ones that watch these shows on Sunday mornings while the rest of us sleep or do something more constructive with one of our two days off. Seem more like they're just catering to their audience versus stacking the deck for republicans on purpose.

George Will with a good column on mandatory minimum sentencing and sentencing juveniles to life-without-parole.

George Will with a good column on mandatory minimum sentencing and sentencing juveniles to life-without-parole.

This is a pretty interesting topic. This is my crim law professor's main area of interest, so I hear a lot about it. During orientation, he debated Jeanne Bishop, a Cook County prosecutor, on whether juveniles should be able to be sentenced to life without parole. Bishop's sister and brother-in-law (her sister was also pregnant) was killed about 20 years ago by David Borre (I think that's his name), who was a 16 or 17 year old student at New Trier. Pretty fascinating stuff.

The SCOTUS had an important free speech ruling:

 

The government’s indictment of Mr. Mehanna lists the following acts, among others, as furthering a criminal conspiracy: “watched jihadi videos,” “discussed efforts to create like-minded youth,” “discussed” the “religious justification” for certain violent acts like suicide bombings, “created and/or translated, accepted credit for authoring and distributed text, videos and other media to inspire others to engage in violent jihad,” “sought out online Internet links to tribute videos,” and spoke of “admiration and love for Usama bin Laden.” It is important to appreciate that those acts were not used by the government to demonstrate the intent or mental state behind some other crime in the way racist speech is used to prove that a violent act was a hate crime. They were the crime, because the conspiracy was to support Al Qaeda by advocating for it through speech.

 

Thoughtcrime now appears to be a reality. I don't mean this in some over-the-top hyperbolic way, but this ruling does mean that you can be convicted of a crime through speech alone.

 

edit: this is in the Democrat thread as a default catch-all. The Obama administration/Eric Holder advocated for criminalizing this sort of speech and deserve to be criticized for it.

I know I posted about the Indian Supreme Court ruling that you can't resist unlawful police conduct, but damned if I'll be able to find it.

 

Anyway, the Michigan Supreme Court has ruled the opposite. And apparently the Indiana legislature changed their laws.
