more hilarity and hypocrisy from progressives

The last two weeks have been filled with the Casey Anthony debacle and of course the DEBT CEILING talks as both sides show their their metal.


The democrats do not want the talks to succeed they want to use this issue to beat republicans over the heads before the election and demagogue their usual issues.


Obama is trying to maneuver republicans into a position were they will be on the hook for the economy through not raising the debt ceiling but of course he has put forth NO PLAN or even a viable budget himself just like he voted "present" constantly when in the Illinois senate he will never commit or take responsibility for any thing he is just looking for the political advantage.


After all Obama can not run on his record he can only try and deflect by attacking his opponent.


I just hope republicans will stick to their convictions and not cave in to Obama.


Let him continue to lie and look like a desperate failing president.


Two stories of note last week and one this week struck me as the usual unmitigated gaul and hypocrisy from progressives and the left.


First was the spreading scandal among teachers and administrators starting in Atlanta and spreading to some nine other states and counting.


It is easy to see how the testing in the No Child Left Behind Act causes teachers to teach our kids how to pass the test and little else because scores are inevitably tied to funding.


Now it seems scores are also tied to some teachers getting incentive bonuses with sums approaching 25k.


With these kinds of sums involved it seems some teachers have been CHEATING.


Please please say it is not SO.
The pedagogues of learning CHEATING.
And cheating for MONEY no less.


Considering the collectivist propaganda and indoctrination be it socialists or communists in our schools today from the universities on down how shocking that these purveyors of social justice are money grubbing and willing to be dishonest for the all mighty buck.


Seems that helping the students went so far as to change answers on test before they were submitted.


I am surprised they did not just hand out the answers before hand.


With the unions especially the various teachers unions screaming that they are under attack one would think they would be smart enough not to get in to this situation but it is not surprising too that those who scream the loudest are the most corrupt trying to deflect though their screaming.


How is it possible to have a culture of CHEATING in the very institutions that are suppose to teach learning and life skills?


These teachers and administrators should be fired!!!


Where is the main stream media on this?
This is just outrageous another huge hypocrisy by the left.
More reason to push for vouchers and charter schools.
The Department of Education needs to go as well as the teacher unions - let the FREE MARKET RULE.


Similarly the president has harped on raising taxes on the wealthy with his class warfare demagoguery.


When he started down that road it was to raise taxes by eliminating  deductions on CORPORATE JETS.


Ever body agrees even the president (at least he indicated that while extending Bush's tax cuts) that raising taxes now is a bad idea.
But NO.


Over and OVER and OVER bad republicans do not want to tax millionaires and billionaires on their private jets blah blah blah.


Millionaires and Billionaires AFTER ALL NEED TO PAY THEIR FAIR SHARE.
What a farce.


Firstly part of his own oh so successful stimulus plan gave the aircraft manufactures and suppliers funds and incentives.
Now he  deems them evil right up  there with the wall street fat cats and fat cat bankers.
All of whom use private aircraft - NO.


The real HYPOCRISY is the amount of air time Obama has with Air Force One. 


He has flown around more than other presidents and of course he has a talent like all bureaucrats to mix his agenda so the tax payers end up with the bill even though he is fund raising or taking a vacation.




Back in 2009 for the G20 meeting more than 500 officials and staff accompanied the president on his tour that week – along with a mass of high-tech security equipment, including the $300,000 presidential limousine, known as The Beast. Fitted with night-vision camera, reinforced steel plating, tear- gas cannon and oxygen tanks, the vehicle is the ultimate in heavy armoured transport.
He has the nerve to bitch out the rich - this is a typical progressive move "do as I say not as I do" - he can rationalize his over usage as a necessity after all he is smarter and knows all the answers.
He travels like a KING.
Obama used Air Force One 172 times in 2010, almost every other day, at a cost to us taxpayers of $181,757 per hour. He has expended more than $100 million in tax dollars flitting about in Air Force One, rarely on urgent national business, and another $100 million in tax dollars transporting his extensive entourage here and there.
His vacation to Hawaii to visit his chums cost us $1.75 million, while we taxpayers are expected to tighten our belts and enjoy “homecations.’’
Mrs. Obama, their children and countless “aides’’ were off to Africa for sightseeing and even a safari under the guise of showing interest in children of Africa
PLEASE my head may explode and my eyes BLEED.
He just has to be kidding - I am SO TRIED of his deceit, lies, and distortions.
This week even better we find out that the sob story he whined through out the campaign of 2008 about his mother's health insurance is another fabrication and lie.
New York Times reporter Janny Scott’s “A Singular Woman: The Untold Story of Barack Obama’s Mother” tells another story of her health insurance situation at the time.
The president claimed she was being denied coverage by the "BIG BAD INSURANCE COMPANY" because of pre-existing conditions blah, blah, blah.
Obama said, “For my mother to die of cancer at the age of 53 and have to spend the last months of her life in the hospital room arguing with insurance companies because they’re saying that this may be a pre-existing condition and they don’t have to pay her treatment, there’s something fundamentally wrong about that.”
When confronted his mouth pieces denied any ambiguity saying that the president was drawing from memories from over 15 years before but did not deny anything.
The facts do not change the broad strokes of Obama’s story of his mother’s last days was the claim.
He LIED - He used his DEAD MOTHER to score political points about his POLITICAL POSITION.
He has NO SHAME.
As a progressive ideologue the "ends always justify the means" mentality allows him to be the 
LIAR - IN - CHIEF.
I realize these are not earth shattering problems but ARE indicative of the slime oozing from our over bloated government and especially from the white house.
Progressivism is the disease the country is suffering from they have brought only divisiveness through political correctness and suffering through their pathological altruism.


VOTE in 2012 
The "ONE" is DONE
The "O" has got to GO

Progressivism - Hypocrisy, Unintended Consequences, and Pathological Altruism

Progressives are driven by a need for progress for a supposed better future.
But what is the better future  they are advocating for?
This is never explained or articulated only left in nebulous terms (why commit?).


I would contend that most progressives have honest good intentions when approaching problems or looking for answers but unfortunately this striving for "good" instead of just living it by example has become a kind of sickness "pathological altruism" which allows the ends to be justified by any means.


path.o.log.i.cal  (adjective)


1. of or pertaining to pathology
2. caused by or involving disease; morbid
3. caused by or evidencing a mentally disturbed condition: a pathological liar




al.tru.ism  (noun)


1. the principle or practice of unselfish concern or devotion to the welfare of others


This unintended consequence of wanting to do "good" becomes  pathological which often manifests itself in a negative way some times in an evil way as seen through out history.


For progressives doing "good" means they can say and do as they please because they have morality and "good" on their side.


Since the ends justify the means progressives will always leave room to maneuver when brought under a critical eye and made to answer for their indiscretions and hypocrisies with a mob mentality.


One HUGE progressive hypocrisy which literally sticks in my throat is our recent fore ray into Libya need I say our 3rd war for supposedly humanitarian grounds to save the poor innocent people form genocide who just want dignity and freedom.


Besides the absence of our anti-war movement which crucified Bush in the press (he at least told congress and did not just ignore them)  the larger picture hypocrisy for me is a moral one.
Let me preface this by saying I believe a persons body is his or hers to use or abuse free will - free choice.
My moral dilemma is the hypocrisy of progressives supporting an illegal act of war by this president killing innocents and Gadhafi supporters alike yet railing against Republicans for wanting to cut off funds to the Planned Parenthood  MURDER machine which kills over 300 THOUSAND babies a year.
Where is all the MORAL outrage at the killing of all those innocents?
Tax payers should NOT have to contribute to any form of genocide.


Progressives strive to find a "one size fits all" solution to our societal problems but this has never in all of history worked because we are all individuals (go figure) and BIG GOVERNMENT collectivists solutions besides taking away our freedoms and liberties have other unintended consequences their  authors  never see coming.
Perhaps they are not as smart as they think.
And often the so-called "science" or "social science" used to justify these actions and choices come from hermetic out of touch academics with no bearing on reality.


That is why I have maintained that Cass Sunstein author of "Nudge" and Regulatory Czar is one of the most dangerous people in our government.


One overwhelming example of big government ineptness and the resulting calamity would be when President Johnson enacted the "war on poverty" with the noble idea to end poverty through prosperity for the poor and a compassionate government.


On the surface this all seems like the right thing to do if the government central planners had a real solution.


After decades and poverty program after poverty program and TRILLIONS and TRILLIONS of dollars some 12% of our population is still below the governmental poverty line after 40 years of GOOD INTENTIONS.


I maintain this has had the unintended consequences of holding this portion of society back from freeing themselves economically.


Whites and blacks both have been affected adversely by these policies in different ways because welfare became a business no one can easily walk away from producing in effect a serf class that is beholding to their political masters.


Another unintended consequence of welfare was to help with the disintegration or the breaking up of the black family that spurred the rise of illegitimacy.


In the 1940's illegitimacy among blacks was 14% today it is 72% almost 73% a huge increase.
Racism is not the problem the big government is.


You tell me have welfare entitlement programs worked or helped in any way?


Not to mention the very successful "war on drugs" more big government meddling.


Then there is EDUCATION were we have spent BILLIONS and BILLIONS if not TRILLIONS of dollars with no increase in educational value as we spend more than most countries per student with far worse results for our money yet progressives/liberals think lack of funding is the problem?


Makes my head want to explode or my eyes bleed.


Our public schools are a mess and getting worse one unintended or intended consequence is that the successful solution the voucher system and charter schools are fought against by the unions and the political hacks who support them despite whether it is for the betterment of our children.


Progressives are ensconced in our schools and universities transforming a great school system in to a propaganda machine devoid of teaching critical thinking and other valuable creative skills as the politically correct as taken over common sense.


The media is guilty too as "Hollywood" has finally admitted its pushes a progressive agenda through TV and movies oh what a big surprise.


But the hypocrisies of the news media still goes on unchecked and at this point is laughable at the absurdity and demagoguery surrounding their constant drone against conservatives, conservative radio and Fox News.
They are fearful weak minded people who believe they hold the intellectual and moral high ground and project their fears and their own deeds on others through twisted criticism, out right lies and paranoia.


With Soros spending some 48 million dollars influencing progressive media we must take some action to stop support of those useful idiots he relies on.
I do not think any of us want to live in a George Soros world.
More progressive hypocrisies and pathologies to come some thing new every day - they just can not help themselves.
They are desperate after the rejection of their agenda last November.
Progressivism = Totalitarianism

The Coming Election

It is astounding that with todays economic problems the business of government is so big and the stakes are so high that Obama will try to raise ONE BILLION DOLLARS in his attempt to buy the presidency yet again.


Where does all that money come from?
Will current the fund raising investigations from his last election really go anywhere?

How is all that money spent - who receives it?

I contend if Obama was really as altruistic and progressive as he says he is he would donate that BILLION DOLLARS to all those oppressed peoples he claims to champion and help level the playing field because after all life is so unfair and SOMEONE has to keep us safe and protect us from ourselves.

So far all the president and his minions have offered up is the "old class warfare" routine and the standard Republicans are evil and want to starve seniors, kill women, prevent kids from going to college and all other evils in the country.
I think the American people see through that obvious and out dated playbook as the presidents approval ratings are not good.

There are so many issues to examine about this administration's abuses of power and it's undermining the foundation of the country the constitution.

I find it quite ironic that progressives/liberals whined and cried howled about the Bush administrations' spending, illegal wars, erosion of our privacy rights, etc. yet today we find our current administration has quadrupled down on the debt (in which demoRats controlled the congress since 2006 and should be responsible for part of Bush's folly), Obama has involved us in a third war with Libya with no approval and without asking congress (at least Bush asked first) and continues in both Iraq and Afghanistan even though he vowed to bring all our troops home from Iraq yeah right - the media just doesn't report on what is up there believe me we are FAR from out of that place, and we enjoy less privacy (patriot act is still around and even enhanced) while curtailing our liberties and freedoms through over regulation enacted through agencies and through executive orders because legislatively it can not pass - especially our economic freedoms are dissolving away as this current bunch are completely anti-small business they support the TAKERS not the MAKERS.

I believe Cass Sunstein is the MOST DANGEROUS man in the country.

This election boils down to the classic fight of the folks who support limited government and thus maximum liberty and freedom versus the folks who support big government and thus the nanny state and collectivism i.e. a false sense of security at the expense of our liberties and freedoms.

It is all about the MAKERS and the TAKERS.

Our bloated big government has been working extra hard to create an environment where they can achieve as many takers as possible through their economic policies and their regulatory policies but fear not they think they are all smarter than us and after all it is all about keeping us safe and protecting us from all the unfairness out there.
Their goal it would seem is to collapse the capitalists system (capitalism is the source of the unfairness) and to make as many of us as possible dependent on them so they can count on our vote!!!!

After all who would vote against their own self interest?

In this election year the independents/the silent majority/the Tea Parties/the Makers/those who support individualism and freedom must get out the VOTE we must be more visible, e-mail your congress person and senator, have honest and reality based conversations with your friends and family.

We must remember we OUTNUMBER them many times over.
WE are the MAJORITY - WE are the MAJORITY.
Remember the government works for us - WE are their BOSSES.
As such in order to set things right the "O" has got to GO!!!!!
The "ONE" is DONE!!!
The "O" must GO!!!!!!
Get out and VOTE for FREEDOM.
