Blogwatch: Obama Throws Maoist Hardliner and Weatherman Pal Under the Bus
Thursday, June 26th, 2008This is funny, found on Gateway Pundit
Oops!… There goes another one!
Wright- Pfleger- His white grandmother- Trinity Church- Muslim girls at a rally…Now it’s the Maoist hardliner’s turn to be airbrushed.
Mike Klonsky, the Maoist Hardliner, Obama supporter and former best friend of the Weatherman terrorist group founders William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn, received a $175,000 grant from the William Ayers/Barack Obama-led Annenberg Challenge to run the Small Schools Workshop.
Klonsky belonged to the Students for a Democratic Society (SDS) and was best friends with William Ayers and Bernadine Dohrn who later became famous for their acts of terrorism when the SDS broke up and the Weathermen terror group was formed.
Between 1979 and 1981, Communist Party (Marxist-Leninist) (CPML) chairman and Obama supporter Mike Klonsky was repeatedly feted with state-dinner-level visits to Beijing.
Yesterday, Klonsky was posting a blog on the Obama website:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democrat Barack Obama admitted on Tuesday he was wrong to say his uncle helped liberate the Nazis’ Auschwitz concentration camp after Republicans said Soviet troops freed the camp.
Obama’s campaign said the candidate meant to say that his great-uncle, Charlie Payne, had helped liberate a part of the Buchenwald camp, not Auschwitz.
“Yesterday he mistakenly referred to Auschwitz instead of Buchenwald in telling of his personal experience of a soldier in his family who served heroically,” said Obama campaign spokesman Bill Burton.
Burton said in the statement that Obama’s great uncle served in the 89th Infantry Division that entered Germany in 1945 and on April 4 overran Ohrdruf, a subcamp of the Buchenwald concentration camp.
Obama had made the Auschwitz reference in a Memorial Day speech on Monday.
More than 1 million people, most of them Jews, were killed at Auschwitz, an extermination camp in Poland. Buchenwald in Germany was mainly a forced labor camp, where some 56,000 people are believed to have died.
“I had an uncle who was … part of the first American troops to go into Auschwitz and liberate the concentration camps,” Obama said.
“And the story in our family was is that when he came home, he just went up into the attic and he didn’t leave the house for six months,” he said.
The Republican National Committee quickly pointed out that the Red Army had liberated Auschwitz in 1945, not American forces.

Tuesday, May 27th, 2008This from Stop The ACLU
Sphere: Related ContentGlenn Beck: Government isn’t the solution, its the problem.
Guess what this liberal will be all about? Socializing!
Link: sevenload.com
Now, if the US government and the Democrats like Ms. Waters were truly interested in erasing the oil companies’ record profits and helping the American consumers, then they would be doing everything they could to increase oil and gasoline production so as to saturate the market. The price of oil and gasoline would then drop through the floor. Remember when oil was $8 a barrel and gasoline was a mere $.95? Oil companies were merging left and right because they couldn’t stay in business on their own and the price of gas wasn’t on the American people’s radar. If punishing the oil companies is truly what Democrats like Maxine Waters really want to do, then they would glut the market. They would change the law so that the supply of oil and gasoline vastly outpaced demand and oil and gas prices dropped.
But they won’t do that because they don’t care about the American consumers. They don’t want the American people using more oil or gasoline. They want the American people to hurt at the pump so they don’t drive as much. Why? Because Democrats actually think the America people are the problem in all of this to begin with.
The oil executive’s answer?: We’ve heard this before, its called Hugo Chavez. This is a hero of the left. Note to Congress: Read Atlass Shrugged.

Obama’s Memorial Day Tard Moments
Tuesday, May 27th, 2008
This from Powerline video via Michelle Malkin, Gateway Pundit subject Line: Zombie Time!… Obama Sees Dead People at New Mexico Speech LOL!!!! - The Roadkill Diaries has: Raising The Dead - Is there nothing Obama can’t do?
Barack Obama must be the most gaffe-prone politician in memory. Today, he delivered a Memorial Day speech in New Mexico. After greeting the local Democratic Party dignitaries, he began:
On this Memorial Day, as our nation honors its unbroken line of fallen heroes — and I see many of them in the audience here today — our sense of patriotism is particularly strong.
Memorial Day honors those who have died in our nation’s military service. Is it possible that Obama does not know this? Sometimes the things that come out of his mouth defy understanding.
What was really offensive about Obama’s New Mexico appearance, however, was what followed his very brief, but generally appropriate, tribute to America’s war dead. He continued with a town hall-style question and answer period that cast veterans in the only role with which the Democrats are comfortable–victims–and sought to politicize the holiday. A few excerpts:
OBAMA: We’re going to have hundreds of thousands of new veterans coming in, many of them who suffer post-traumatic stress disorder. They are not being diagnosed quickly enough, they’re not getting the services that they need quickly enough.And, sadly, the group of veterans that are probably being most neglected in this area are women veterans. We’ve got to do a better job of creating facilities…
(APPLAUSE)
… specifically for women veterans.

Sphere: Related ContentMalkin also has: Obama’s uncle did what?
Obama also spoke about his uncle, who was part of the American brigade that helped to liberate Auschwitz. He said the family legend is that, upon returning from war, his uncle spent six months in an attic. “Now obviously, something had really affected him deeply, but at that time there just weren’t the kinds of facilities to help somebody work through that kind of pain,” Obama said. “That’s why this idea of making sure that every single veteran, when they are discharged, are screened for post-traumatic stress disorder and given the mental health services that they need – that’s why it’s so important.”
Purple Avenger, blogging at Ace of Spades:
Auschwitz of course is in Poland. It was liberated by the Red Army on Jan 27 1945. Poland, on most maps is usually placed to the east of Germany, although we may need to investigate the geography textbooks the Messiah used as a child…The Allies were wrapping up the battle of the bulge in late January of 1945 — the Rhine crossings were still well into the future when Auschwitz was liberated.
Either Obama’s uncle served in the Red Army, or he’s spinning Clintonesque lies about Auschwitz to sell his government programs. Hey, it’s for a good cause…but it’s not enough for him. It has to be personal. It has to be all about him.It’s like Bill Clinton whining about those Arkansas church burnings he witnessed as a child–church burnings which never actually happened.
I think the Obamessiah just out Tuzla’d Hillary. The man is…nefarious.

Sphere: Related ContentYou know what I have to say about Barack Obama calling the Tennessee GOP “low-class” and “unacceptable” on Good Morning America because of its ad answering Michelle Obama’s lack of pride in her country?Barack, sweetie, your conversation with ABC News’s Robin Roberts insisting that your wife’s public remarks on the campaign trail be exempt from public criticism doesn’t help my children.
The proud Obamas claim they want to talk about the “issues,” rather than “distractions.” But when the candidate puts his bitter half on stage and his chief public surrogate, what comes out of her mouth is an issue.
Michelle Obama was asked about the ad on “GMA,” but her husband said, “Let me just interject on this.”“The GOP, should I be the nominee, I think can say whatever they want to say about me, my track record,” Obama said. “I’ve been in public life for 20 years. I expect them to pore through everything that I’ve said, every utterance, every statement. And to paint it in the most undesirable light possible. That’s what they do.”
“But I do want to say this to the GOP. If they think that they’re going to try to make Michelle an issue in this campaign, they should be careful. Because that I find unacceptable,” he said.

Fucking asshole Steven King insults soldiers - Yup his message board is closed

I don’t want to sound like an ad–a public service ad on TV–but the fact is that if you can read you can walk into a job later on. If you don’t then you got the Army, Iraq, I don’t know, something like that. It’s not as bright. So that’s my little commercial for that.
King thinks the troops stationed in Iraq are illiterate, uneducated people who couldn’t get jobs in the U.S. Nice. Real nice.
In 2005 a Pentagon official addressed the myth of the stupid soldier [via Gateway Pundit]:
“They are so clearly a cut above America,” Bill Carr, acting deputy undersecretary of defense for military personnel policy, said of today’s recruits.
Carr bristles when he hears unfounded charges that the men and women entering the military are less educated, less affluent or less likely than other 18- to 24-year-olds to have alternatives to military service. Rather, a combination of volunteerism and commitment to service is prompting young people to enlist, Carr said, noting that a measure of shrewdness plays into their decision. “They are planning their future and considering what part we can play in it,” he said.
Carr likes to think of himself as a “myth buster,” helping break stereotypes he said are flat-out wrong and cheat servicemembers out of the pride they’ve earned and deserve.

There’s more to this relationship than Ayers simply being a “guy who lives in my neighborhood.” The two were introduced back in 1995 when Obama was presented by outgoing state senator Alice Palmer to Ayers and other far left activists in the University Chicago neighborhood of Hyde Park at Ayers house…RezkoWatch reports on 2 other forums where we know Obama and Ayers participated:Wondering whether the three may have crossed paths is not speculation. It is a fact that they have. Ayers, Dohrn, and Obama have appeared together at a number of gatherings and academic events. In November 1997, Ayers and Obama participated in a panel at the University of Chicago entitled Should a child ever be called a “super predator?” to debate “the merits of the juvenile justice system”.In April 2002, Ayers, Dohrn, and Obama, then an Illinois State Senator, participated together at a conference entitled “Intellectuals: Who Needs Them?” sponsored by The Center for Public Intellectuals and the University of Illinois-Chicago. Ayers and Obama were two of the six members of the “Intellectuals in Times of Crisis” panel.And Campus Watch reports on a farewell dinner for the radical Palestinian activist Rashid Khalidi, who was leaving the Arab American Action Network to take the Edward Said endowed chair at Colombia University, where Obama, Ayers, and Dohrn all gave glowing testimonials to Khalidi – whose group received $75,000 from the Woods Foundation.

Tracing the Left’s escalating war on military recruiters
Friday, March 7th, 2008
From Michelle Malkin
Ideas have consequences. Inaction has consequences. For the past several years, I’ve chronicled the Left’s escalating war on military recruiters–and the apathetic, weak-kneed response to it. In Unhinged, I devoted a sub-section of my chapter “They Don’t Support Our Troops” to the organized campaign of harassment against recruitment offices on college campuses nationwide. The anti-recruiter thugs have thrived thanks to a combination of public indifference, law enforcement fecklessness, and left-wing ideological apologism. As you may recall, I have personal experience with the anti-recruiter propagandists, who lie through their teeth, exploit media sympathy, and harbor nothing but raw hatred for the men and women who protect and defend their rights to bitch and moan.
Many observers wanted to shut out any possibility that yesterday’s bombing at the Times Square recruitment center was ideologically motivated.
But will any on the left and in the Democrat Party raise their voices–loudly and clearly–to condemn the ongoing, militant anti-recruiter campaign?
Will they urge the Code Pinkos and their ilk to halt their intimidation and obstruction efforts?
Or will they continue to sit silently and attempt to downplay yesterday’s bombing as an isolated incident– instead of the all-too-predictable symptom of reckless tolerance for dangerous “peace”-peddlers skating on the edge of sedition?

Michelle Obama “clarifies” her statement. You call this clarifying!?
Thursday, February 21st, 2008I’m checking out the liberal blogs and I can’t help laughing at the pure idiocy some of these people exhibit.
Here you had Michelle Obama clearly stating her disdain for this country, but the story in the minds of idiot liberals is we (evil right wingers) twisted her words, or we took them out of context, or misunderstood what she said.
I heard what she fucken said and I understood clearly.
Below are some random quotes from some libs on this issue, but look at the last comment, the perfect example of the type of liberal idiot fucks she was speaking to.
If you had checked out the liberal blogs when Michelle’s comments were making the rounds, nobody on the left disagreed with them, in fact, as the dude below did they applauded her comments.
Look Michelle Obama is off the charts smart, much smarter than her fraud husband; she knew exactly what she was saying and meant every damm word.
What I don’t get is why she felt the need to “clarify.” The only people she pissed off were the people who are not going to vote for her “empty suit” husband anyway.
Most of Obama’s fans are guilty white people who believe that by supporting this dude despite knowing nothing about him, they are eradicating the ills of racism in American society.
Michelle Obama in private I bet says, “damm look at all of these rednecks coming out to hear my Boo recycle some mindless garbage, but those little white girls better keep their hand off of my man!”
She is amazed, as am I that white folks are turning out in record numbers to show their utter disdain for Hillary and her cheating ass husband. Democrats are gleeful at the opportunity to burry the Clinton once and for all.
Bottom line, Michelle did not have to clarify jack, liberal Democrats seek to gain and remain in power by pandering to the most intellectually vacant and misery filled folks in our society.
As I said before, dissing America is part of the liberal politicians’ playbook. Michelle was simply articulating liberal Democratic philosophy.
******
******
Even in this “clarifying” speech, she bemoans the lack of opportunities for American children. I’m thinking is this bitch crazy, lack of fucken opportunities? Talk about someone who never studied black history.
Focusing on today’s black youth, we have gone from armed military escort into America’s schools to 70 percent dropout rate and debate over baggy pants.
Hey Michelle, is Obama going to make these fucken people get an education?
Opportunities my ass!
*****
- Michelle misspoke and she has clarified it. What does Michelle need to apologize for?
- She just said something dumb and has now clarified it.
- She said something dumb and has clarified it. EVERY politician says something DUMB during a campaign. They are just human. I remember that both Bush and Kerry said STUPID things during their campaigns. People jump all over it and they clarified it and people move on.
- Its sad how the American media is so skilled at twisting peoples words out of context to make a story out of it. Isn’t the media supposed to be impartial?
- She is a true patriot - great to see that she is addressing the controversy over remarks that were widely re-edited to remove context and make them look inflamatory.
THIS IS THE KIND OF MORONIC JACKASS MICHELLE WAS SPEAKING FOR…
-
there are a few really good reasons to be ashamed of our country right now: how about ….
Suspension of Habeas Corpus?
Preemptive Wars?
Extraordinary Rendition?
Torture?You swelling with pride yet?
Or maybe you’d like a happy trip down memory lane so you can remember all the reasons we have to be panting at the knees of idiotic jingoist everytime they bark…
Let’s see …we emulated the British by maintaining slaves, got uppity with the Brits because we didn’t want to pay exorbitant taxes for their stupid wars–but still kept our slaves.
That was our BIG revolution. Filled with moral clarity and light, ain’t it?
Oh, yeah, we expanded West, murdering and disenfrachising the Indians as we went- a few million, give or take a hundred thousand or so.
Oh, yeah, than there was that thing we did with Mexico when we like took Texas, and California.
Oh, yeah, and than that Philipine thing, where we slaughtered a bunch of lousy muslims and covered our bullets in pig’s fat, just to make them feel good about it.
Oh yeah, then there was the Robber Baron era in which we became an industrial power on the backs of many a wage enslaved immigrant.
What’s not to be proud of?
And man, I haven’t even gotten to the 20th century when we finally doned or emperor’s armor for real: Dresden, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Vietnam, Chile, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Iraq….Geez. We can be proud of all of that, can’t we?
Point being, claiming you have to be proud of this history isn’t just fanciful, it’s a lie. I’m ashamed of much of our history, as you should be too, if you understand it at all.
I rather believe Michelle when she said the “first time she’s really been proud of this country”…and I rather admire her for it.
Screw Billy O’ Reilly and the jingoistic assholes on the right. They’ve been needing a history lesson since they day they were born. Rather than apologize, why the aren’t we schooling them in what US history really means?
I guess I’ll have to do the diary on the Jim Crowe laws and what they meant for millions of afro americans less than a century ago.
I expected assholes like O’Reilly to forget or never know this stuff, but what’s up with the folks around here? It’s not like the history of US oppression toward minorities–both here and abroad– is a deep secret, is it?
You can lead a conservative to facts–but you can’t make him think.
First Chuck Barkley, now Michelle Obama, who will be the next idiot Obama supporter to insert foot in mouth?
Tuesday, February 19th, 2008UPDATE - When I wrote this rant at the time I did not know this: Bill O’Reilly
Now, the problem with that statement is the words “for the first time in my adult life I am proud of my country.” Perhaps Michelle Obama simply misspoke. That happens all the time when you give speeches. But Mrs. Obama said it twice in two different speeches.
Now I’m willing, I’m willing to give Mrs. Obama the benefit of the doubt if she wants that benefit. The problem is she’s been silent, letting others speak for her.
Keep that in mind, when (or if) Michelle goes on a “I DIDN’T MEAN IT” talk show tour, starting with Oprah. She clearly meant it.
************Original Post***********
I’ve been pondering all day that stupid ass remark Michelle Obama made and I tried like hell to come up with something relevant, something worthy of inquisitive eyes. You know what I could not come up with anything to say, her comments, so outlandish and repugnant there is no explaining her either colossal stupidity or she has already learned that there will always be a segment of the American population, where playing the victim makes you somehow noble, cool, aware, a proud non conformist.
Politics is already a cesspool of corruption made up of the most egotistical manipulative people on the planet. Michelle fits in nicely.
I think about my own life, I’m as Middle American as they come, ridiculously simple, wanting for nothing, I have a nice job, one where I can easily work until I’m 70 or more in relative comfort.
I have a great wife, a loving family, some issues, but certainly nothing that causes me any great concern.
I have been virtually around this entire nation, and had the opportunity to travel Europe.
I have been involved in some great endeavors, had the opportunity to meet and work with some extraordinary people.
Mrs. Snoop and I are not wealthy folks, not will we ever be, unless we hit the lotto, but I’m cool with that.
I have never climbed towering peaks, rode the great wave, or sought the adrenalin rush of lets say bungee jumping off a picturesque bridge or skydiving into a beautiful valley.
I have never had the opportunity to either speak to or perform before a crowd of thousands with adoring applauses afterwards.
I have never made it big on Wall Street, nor have I closed a multi-million dollar real estate or business deal.
I have never owned a business, never with my own two hands constructed my own home.
Although I have many times experienced racism, been treated less than fair on some occasions, and have been frustrated at some of the decisions I have made that caused me to take a less than desirable path. Good, bad or otherwise I have never questioned the greatness of this nation nor oblivious to the fact that if I desired to achieve greatness that being an American gives me a distinct advantage millions come here to take advantage of each year.
This nation provides an abundance of opportunities to those that CHOOSE to take advantage of it.
Michelle Obama the wife of a man in a very exclusive club, United States Senator.
Friend of and political partner of arguable the richest and most influential woman in the world Oprah Winfrey.
This woman, hugely successful with more money that I will ever see, I guess is not proud or our American standard of living compared to people throughout the world.
Even in some of America’s most impoverished areas our poor are not living in grass huts, without running water. Let not forget most likely drive decent automobiles, has multiple TV’s (with cable) and most of their lives paid for on the backs of hard working Americans.
I’m sure in the next day or so, she will qualify her remarks and try to brush them aside.
To me this little incident only outlines just how far politics has fallen in this nation.
To think that by disparaging a nation that has provided her with so much is in her mind “necessary” to court the political favor of those who would just assume this nation be brought to its knees is frankly sickening.
What the hell, all I can say is we simply need to make damm sure that individuals like Michelle Obama and her ilk are not bestowed the honor of representing this nation as first lady.
I’m sure one of those diseased ravaged, war torn, AIDS infested African countries will make her queen.
But ya know the funny thing is one of her first acts as African queen would be to meet with evil American leaders to beg for money.
Yes, America sucks until you need our damm money, or the blood of our soldiers to liberate you.

Anti-war Soros funded Iraq study
Monday, January 14th, 2008
Via Right Wing Nuthouse - From the George Soros group the Open Society Institute:
A STUDY that claimed 650,000 people were killed as a result of the invasion of Iraq was partly funded by the antiwar billionaire George Soros.Soros, 77, provided almost half the £50,000 cost of the research, which appeared in The Lancet, the medical journal. Its claim was 10 times higher than consensus estimates of the number of war dead.The study, published in 2006, was hailed by antiwar campaigners as evidence of the scale of the disaster caused by the invasion, but Downing Street and President George Bush challenged its methodology.
New research published by The New England Journal of Medicine estimates that 151,000 people – less than a quarter of The Lancet estimate – have died since the invasion in 2003.
“The authors should have disclosed the [Soros] donation and for many people that would have been a disqualifying factor in terms of publishing the research,” said Michael Spagat, economics professor at Royal Holloway, University of London.
The Lancet study was commissioned by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and led by Les Roberts, an associate professor and epidemiologist at Columbia University. He reportedly opposed the war from the outset.
His team surveyed 1,849 homes at 47 sites across Iraq, asking people about births, deaths and migration in their households.
Professor John Tirman of MIT said this weekend that $46,000 (£23,000) of the approximate £50,000 cost of the study had come from Soros’s Open Society Institute.
Roberts said this weekend: “In retrospect, it was probably unwise to have taken money that could have looked like it would result in a political slant. I am adamant this could not have affected the outcome of the research.”

THE United States is at war in the Middle East and Central Asia, the economy is writhing like a snake with a broken back, oil prices are relentlessly climbing toward $100 a barrel and an increasing number of Americans just can’t afford to be sick with anything that won’t be treated with aspirin and bed rest.So, when CNN brought the Republican presidential candidates together this week for what is loosely termed a “debate,” what did the country get but a discussion of immigration, Biblical inerrancy and the propriety of flying the Confederate flag?
In fact, this most recent debacle masquerading as a presidential debate raises serious questions about whether CNN is ethically or professionally suitable to play the political role the Democratic and Republican parties recently have conceded it.
Selecting a president is, more than ever, a life and death business, and a news organization that consciously injects itself into the process, as CNN did by hosting Wednesday’s debate, incurs a special responsibility to conduct itself in a dispassionate and, most of all, disinterested fashion.
When one considers CNN’s performance, however, the adjectives that leap to mind are corrupt and incompetent.

Boy Scout Troop 45 in Cambridge, Massachusetts tried to raise the morale of local troops fighting terrorists in Iraq by placing donation boxes in polling places. But after a single complaint, municipal bureauweenies removed the boxes on the grounds that they were “pro-war.”Marsha Weinerman, Executive Director of the Cambridge Board of Elections, claims the Scouts didn’t have permission to place the boxes. According to the Scouts, they received permission not once but twice.
We’ve reached the point where local governments will repress support for our soldiers under fire. On the other side of the country, seditious activists attack the police while attempting to prevent the transport of military supplies, secure in the knowledge that their clearly treasonous activities will entail no consequences of any significance.
Left unchecked, the moonbattery that is eating away at our society will lead either to civil war, or to complete dissolution.

Sphere: Related ContentAfter spending half her diary comparing America to Nazi Germany, Daily Kos diarist Granny Doc openly roots for an “economic meltdown” in America,
The parallels are undeniable, and I see only one solution if America, The Grand Experiment, is to survive.I want to stand by and watch it all blow up.I want the dollar to plunge to worthless paper.
I want the stock market to implode.
I want the economy to plunge into chaos.
I want the Chinese to call in all the debt they hold.
I want an economic meltdown of such staggering proportion that even that idiot on Bill Moyer’s Journal who does not know the difference between a State Constitution and the United States Constitution, is forced to look around in mild surprise and wonder what the hell happened.
Only total economic destruction will get the attention of the fools.
This is a bunch of bullshit!

An anti-war protestor, with red paint on her hands, jumps up in front of Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice before Rice testifies before the House Foreign Affairs Committee on Capitol Hill in Washington October 24, 2007. At right is the committee Chairman Rep. Tom Lantos (D-CA).
Folks I’m gonna say something that may offend some (Yes, I know it has not stopped me yet) but, if a bunch of black folks were to bust in a meeting with a WHITE Secretary of State, man or woman, they would be shot!
I get dirty looks from rednecks coming into my own damm building when I’m dressed casually.
How the fuck does a bunch of crazy ass white ladies continue to interrupt and disrupt these meetings and come nose to nose with a high ranking official?!
I have been the chair of several civic boards, and my first order of business at any “controversial meetings” was to tell any crazy mutherfuckers… true shit, “if you interrupt my meeting acting crazy, I’ll have your ass arrested and banned from any further meetings, you have a responsibility to act like a civilized human being.”
Whoever runs security at these congressional meetings needs to be fucken fired, this is a damm joke.
Like I said a bunch of Negros could not go around disrupting congressional meeting with a bunch of white folks.
These crazy white bitches should be ashamed of themselves acting like ignorant fucks.
They need to be in jail or on Meds!
ok time for a drink….
Sphere: Related ContentVideo: Job of U.S. soldiers is killing “mothers and sisters,” says David Crosby
Tuesday, October 16th, 2007From Hot Air, Snoop, why do you think all liberals are fucked up in the head? This video is just another of many examples…
Sphere: Related ContentSo self-parodic is this all the way around the horn that I can’t muster the requisite outrage. Of course David Crosby thinks American soldiers are out to kill women. Of course Graham Nash thinks “dialogue” is the answer to suicidal jihadism. Of course Chris Matthews doesn’t think he’s a Marxist even as he’s mouthing rhetoric straight from the Daily Worker. Of course, of course.
A lot of golden moments packed into 130+ seconds but if I have only one to take with me to the grave, it’s the knowing look Nash shoots Matthews after he very smartly suggests opposing the war as a good way for the Church to distract people from that nasty business with the altar boys. You’re nobody’s fool, Nashy!
ACLU Trying to Ban Bowing Head During Prayer
Tuesday, October 16th, 2007From Moonbattery
Sphere: Related ContentThe latest skirmish in the moonbat war on Christianity is taking place at East Brunswick High School in New Jersey, where school officials have declared that football coach Marcus Borden cannot so much as bow his head in reverence when his team prays.Although totalitarian moonbats have not yet been able to take away the right of players to pray, coaches are alleged to be public officials not entitled to the freedom of religion guaranteed by the First Amendment. According to the ACLU of New Jersey, Borden’s silent show of respect for God fosters a “destructive environment.” This satanic organization has taken the case to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals.
Wars have been fought over far less than what the ACLU is doing to this country.
