Our Moral Superiors™

Posted on | March 9, 2015 | 20 Comments

This was a comment I wrote on a previous post:

Here’s the thing that bothers me: Like anybody else, I’m just trying to work for a living and pay my bills and raise my children. And yet they won’t leave us alone. The Left’s constant war of aggression against “bourgeois … upper-class hegemony,” their implacable hostility to Christianity, the family and the other institutions of American society, means that we can never have a moment’s peace.
Constantly, we find the Left dividing us, demanding that we choose sides and accusing us of hateful selfishness if we do not join their crusades to destroy American society.
They yell “Civil rights!” And you are a RACIST if you don’t support whatever agenda the Left is pushing. They yell “Economic equality!” And you are a CAPITALIST OPPRESSOR who hates working people if you don’t support the Left’s agenda. “Gay rights!” You’re an ignorant prejudiced HOMOPHOBE. “Women’s rights!” You’re a MISOGYNIST who hates women.
The Left’s agenda is always about accusing us — ordinary Americans just going about our daily lives — of hateful selfishness. Accuse! Accuse! Accuse!
Once you start noticing this pattern, eventually you feel the need to ask these “progressive” activists a simple question: “Who are YOU to accuse ME?”
What gives these people the moral authority to accuse honest law-abiding citizens of “oppressing” others? What acts of unselfish generosity have these “progressives” ever done, that would qualify them as such exemplary characters as to judge us?
Who elected them the Official Arbiters of Social Justice?
They have no credibility.
Closely examine these “progressive” loudmouths and, over and over, what you find is either (a) they’re some born-rich snob who attended an elite private college your kids could never afford, (b) they’re employed by some government agency or tax-exempt organization so that it is their professional career to lecture us about our alleged moral inferiority, or (c) they’re some kind of lunatic pervert.
Oh, I almost forgot (d) all of the above.
Damn these people and damn their “progressive” agenda. They aren’t better than the rest of us and, in most cases, they’re just lazy arrogant narcissists who want to bask in public admiration for telling everybody how morally inferior we are to them.
Damn them. Damn them all to hell.

Hillary actually send 55,000 (paper) pages of UNSEARCHABLE emails to the state dept. http://t.co/wz4XWzRkl2 @AceofSpadesHQ

— Arthur Kimes (@ComradeArthur) March 9, 2015

So, Her Majesty blows off common sense and any number of regulations to run her own email server while in office. Her Royal Bluff is called, and she’s all

“I want the public to see my email, ” she wrote in the Tweet. “I asked State to release them. They said they will review them for release as soon as possible.”

What is “soon” on the Regal Timepiece?

What does that mean, 55,000 “pages”? Or maybe you just read it, as the crack fact-check team over at PolitiFact did just last night, as 55,000 emails.

It turns out the reference is to literal physical pages. From Friday’s Times: “Finally, in December, dozens of boxes filled with 50,000 pages of printed emails from Mrs. Clinton’s personal account were delivered to the State Department.”

Why did Mrs. Clinton have her staff go through the trouble of printing out, boxing and shipping 50,000 or 55,000 pages instead of just sending a copy of the electronic record? One can only speculate, but there is an obvious advantage: Printed files are less informative and far harder to search than the electronic originals.

Given the Imperial non-command of security, one can only hope that a ream or twa is not mislaid in the process.

I mean, sure would be a cryin’, godforsaken shame if somebody got ahold of a box, scanned them with a drunken OCR program, and had Her Majesty in a furious catfight with President Jarrett over an Ambassador getting whacked, or something. No, that would never happen. Too farfetched. Who would believe anything less that exactly what the Regal Lips have uttered?

Also:

Gov. Palin: “I faced tough questions over email, so should Hillary Clinton”

Fat chance o’ that, guv.

Did You Know …?

“International Women’s Day” (IWD) is a Communist holiday. Despite my extensive knowledge of communist history, I didn’t know this until I saw a post on the Tumblr blog of Mehreen Kasana, a Pakistani-born radical feminist who lives in New York:

This time when you celebrate International Women’s Day, make it a point to remember that it started off as International Working Women’s Day until the bourgeoisie hijacked it and removed its class component to present a false and unified ‘sisterhood’ so that women were discouraged from participating in the struggle against upper class hegemony.

Thank you for the tip, Ms. Kasana! It’s amazing the things the bourgeoisie can learn by reading feminist Tumblr blogs. So I checked Wikipedia, and sure enough, it’s true: The first International Women’s Day was organized in 1909 by the Socialist Party of America, and this anti-capitalist holiday played a pivotal role in history:

In 1917 demonstrations marking International Women’s Day in Saint Petersburg on the last Sunday in February (which fell on March 8 on the Gregorian calendar) initiated the February Revolution. Women in Saint Petersburg went on strike that day for “Bread and Peace” — demanding the end of World War I, an end to Russian food shortages, and the end of czarism. [Bolshevik revolutionary] Leon Trotsky wrote, “23 February (8th March) was International Woman’s Day and meetings and actions were foreseen. But we did not imagine that this ‘Women’s Day’ would inaugurate the revolution. Revolutionary actions were foreseen but without date. But in morning, despite the orders to the contrary, textile workers left their work in several factories and sent delegates to ask for support of the strike … which led to mass strike … all went out into the streets.”
Following the October Revolution, the Bolshevik Alexandra Kollontai and Vladimir Lenin made it an official holiday in the Soviet Union … On May 8th, 1965 by the decree of the USSR Presidium of the Supreme Soviet International Women’s Day was declared a non-working day in the USSR “in commemoration of the outstanding merits of Soviet women in communistic construction, in the defense of their Fatherland during the Great Patriotic War, in their heroism and selflessness at the front and in the rear, and also marking the great contribution of women to strengthening friendship between peoples, and the struggle for peace. But still, women’s day must be celebrated as are other holidays.”
From its official adoption in Russia following the Soviet Revolution in 1917 the holiday was predominantly celebrated in communist and socialist countries.

America won the Cold War, but the deadly totalitarian ideology of the Soviet Union — the “Evil Empire” as Ronald Reagan famously called it — has been resurrected in the name of feminism.

Honestly, I knew nothing of this history Sunday when I noticed friends on Twitter mocking International Women’s Day.

“@kurt_loder: Tomorrow back to International Men's Day…” Raping and pillaging 364/365, amirite?

@TayNez81 Exactly. We only gave them a 23-hour day. @instapundit

— Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) March 8, 2015

As far as I knew then, International Women’s Day was just one of those silly occasions created by the United Nations and promoted by the tax-exempt non-profit feminist groups that feed at the trough where governments and gigantic foundations (Ford, Rockefeller, Gates, etc.) shovel out grants to crusading liberal do-gooder types in sensible shoes. Then I noticed radical feminist Laurie Penny pimping IWD.

But @PennyRed is a loyal comrade! http://t.co/3pcdsWypxQ @politicsofone #tcot #InternationalWomensDay pic.twitter.com/yAcTkB6yw0

That’s right: Laurie Penny’s book quoted Alexandra Kollontai, the Bolshevik commissar who helped make IWD a holiday in the Soviet Union! Let’s quote the commissar, eh?

“The communist economy does away with the family. In the period of the dictatorship of the proletariat . . . the family loses its significance as an economic unit. The external economic functions of the family disappear . . .
“Once the family has been stripped of its economic functions and its responsibilities towards the younger generation and is no longer central to the existence of the woman, it has ceased to be a family.”
— Alexandra Kollontai, 1921

This, my friends, is the ideology celebrated on the communist holiday International Women’s Day. The more you know about feminism, the more you recognize its familiar totalitarian agenda.

The weather here in the Washington area was a (relatively) balmy 52 this afternoon, and is supposed to remain decently warm for the rest of the week, which means we’ll soon start seeing attractive women outdoors wearing short jackets instead of coats that look closely related to comforters or air mattresses. In the meantime, it’s time again for Rule 5 Sunday, since everybody likes a pretty girl.

Issa: Her Majesty & #OccupyResoluteDesk Are Both Beyond Justice & They Know It

Posted on | March 8, 2015 | 36 Comments

by Smitty

Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) on Sunday suggested that Hillary Clinton could face criminal charges if she knowingly withholds emails from congressional investigators.
Appearing on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Issa noted that “voluntary cooperation does not guarantee that it’s a crime not to deliver all” requested emails.

Setting up your own security is both:

boneheaded due to risks, and
looks kinda like a precursor to shady moves.

But how, under the sun, are you going to bring charges, and actually carry out a trial?

Stipulate for a moment that you do. What difference, at that point, would it make? Irrespective of the Rodeo Clown’s personal contempt for Her Majesty, President Jarrett is going to put a pardon in front of the meat puppet for one of those elegant signatures.

Corporate integrity is like driver courage in bad weather, I realized in last Thursday’s slush. We’re going to go a little slower than the biggest coward on the road, no matter the conditions. The organization as a whole is going to be slightly slimier than the lowest cretin in the lot. When you’re beset with zero-integrity dirtbags like Occupy Resolute Desk and Her Majesty, the miracle is that we’re not closer to a banana republic than we already are.

The GOP needs to quit boring everyone with the potential for justice that is no longer attainable in this corrupt system. What’s needful is that the facts be broadcast, the plan to refresh our federal government promulgated, and the reform package put to voters for 2016.

Don’t bore me, Issa.

Columnist Uses Libel in ‘Hate Speech’ Attack on First Amendment Rights

Posted on | March 8, 2015 | 81 Comments

“Take your meds before reading,” warns Kathy Shaidle about a Times of Israel column by “human rights activist” Dinah Silverstein:

In the world today, it is universally accepted that hate speech is not free speech. International human rights law . . . mandates legal protections against hate speech. . . . Every single human rights group in existence strongly supports hate speech laws and continually works to have them expanded. All countries now have laws against hate speech.
All countries, that is, except for the United States. In the US, all manner of hateful and discriminatory expression is permitted under the guise of “freedom of speech.” . . .

(Permit me to interrupt here to exercise my First Amendment freedom to say damn “the world today” and damn “human rights.”)

[T]he US steadfastly refuses to protect vulnerable minorities from even the most extreme forms of hate speech. In the landmark case of Brandenburg v. Ohio, the United States Supreme Court even ruled that KKK members have the right to advocate violence against minorities as “free speech.” . . .

(Violence is illegal. However, proving that Hateful Statement A led to Violent Felony B can be problematic, which is what Brandenburg was really about. Please continue, Ms. Silverstein.)

Human rights groups have complained for decades about America’s failure to enact laws against hate speech and the UN Human Rights Council has repeatedly expressed deep concern about America’s refusal to protect vulnerable minorities from hate speech, but nothing has ever been done to remedy the problem. . . .

(Even “human rights” whiners are protected by the First Amendment.)

What many Americans don’t seem to understand is that failing to pass laws against hate speech not only violates fundamental human rights, but also explicitly violates international law.

(And while we’re at it, damn “international law.”)

More recently, racist hate speech against Muslims inspired Anders Behring Breivik to slaughter 77 people in Norway, while hate speech from the likes of Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh incited right-wing extremist Jared Lee Loughner to go on a shooting spree in Arizona.

STOP RIGHT THERE, YOU DESPICABLE LIAR!

Loughner was not a “right-wing extremist”;
and
His apparent inspiration was a 9/11 Truther conspiracy film.

Read “Jared Loughner’s Zeitgeist Obsession” if you want to learn about the anti-Christian, anti-capitalism paranoid cult “documentary” that evidently “incited” the Tucson massacre:

“I really think that this Zeitgeist documentary had a profound impact upon Jared Loughner’s mindset and how he views the world that he lives in,” Zach Osler, 22, told ABC’s Ashleigh Banfield. Osler’s father confirmed that influence in an interview published Sunday by the Arizona Republic. “He wanted to watch [Zeitgeist] all the time,” George Osler told the Phoenix newspaper. “It was cool at first. But then it got weird. It was all he wanted to do.”

Please read the whole thing. I spent about three or four days in January 2011 researching the background on Loughner and the Zeitgeist cult. As I complained at the time, once evidence emerged that Loughner was not a “right-wing extremist” — rather quite the opposite — everybody in the major media mysteriously lost interest in his motives. Hey, if they couldn’t promote hatred of Christianity and hatred of capitalism, what would liberal journalists do for a living?

The world if full of “international law” and “human rights” and every other species of dishonest evil, and if America alone stands against this dangerous tide of tyranny, so be it.

“Truth is great and will prevail if left to herself . . . she is the proper and sufficient antagonist to error, and has nothing to fear from the conflict, unless by human interposition disarmed of her natural weapons, free argument and debate, errors ceasing to be dangerous when it is permitted freely to contradict them.”
— Thomas Jefferson, Virginia Statute for Religious Freedom, 1786

If any lying “human rights activist” thinks they can stop me from telling the truth, they’d better bring a damned army.

Life Sentences for Michigan Couple Who Raped 1-Year-Old Girl on Video

Posted on | March 8, 2015 | 111 Comments

Michael Emory (left) and Stevie Foehl (right)

American society is rapidly approaching maximum degeneracy:

A Michigan couple convicted of filming each other sexually abusing a 1-year-old girl received life prison sentences Thursday.
Stevie Foehl, 28, and her boyfriend, Michael Emory, 26, pleaded guilty to a slew of sex crime charges in January. Cops found videos of the unthinkable sexual assault on Emory’s computer, which they seized while he was being investigated on separate sex abuse charges.
“I don’t know how to quantify the horror this child was put through,” Judge Dennis Lieber said at the sentencing Thursday, in which Emory got three consecutive life sentences, and Foehl received life in prison.
Emory came under investigation in February 2013 after police learned of his alleged sexual relationship with a 14-year-old girl. Cops say the offender made contact with the teen through Craigslist, where she offered her services as a baby sitter. Her parents found out and reported it to the police.
Emory and Foehl fled, and police searched their apartment in Alpine Township. There, they found a computer containing the graphic video, which even veteran investigators found difficult to watch.
“To a person, this is the worst, one of the worst [child sex cases] they’ve had to work,” Kent County Undersheriff John Hess told WZZM.
The FBI and local authorities arrested the couple in Spartanburg, South Carolina, in August 2013. They were extradited to Michigan to face the charges against them.

Human life is cheapened a nation that accepts more than 1 million abortions a year as “a woman’s right to choose.”

If it is not wrong to kill an unborn baby, is anything wrong?
