Voting

Can we vote ourselves out of this?  Ann Barnhardt says that particular Elvis has left the building, at least for economics.

I don’t know.  Maybe slogging in the grease pits ad trying to get people who are devoted to making things better will win out.  Maybe no matter how many troops we send out of the trenches over the top, they are bound to get mowed down by the leftists.  Conservatives have left the culture totally in the hands of the left wing all through Western Civilization; movies, TV, art, song, literature, journalism, education, you name it.  While conservatives abandoned the fight there to concentrate on being a leg of the three legged stool of the GOP (social conservatives, small government fiscal conservatives, and strong national defense), the left has used the culture to mold the next generation to be liberal Democrats.  They watch Democrats snap up new Americans, who are overwhelmingly conservative, and have no counterpart.  William F. Buckley and Andrew Breitbart are dead, and no one fills that vacuum.  They let country club establishment Republicans use their votes with little result to show for it.  When same sex marriage referenda first came on the ballots, the public voted against them by large margins. The left charged the pickets in the culture war and made things more even, though not near winning as they have done in Britain, where a Romney type “conservative” is causing more damage to the society than a wild beast of a liberal.

I forget who said it, maybe Machiavelli, that he’d rather have a handful of troubadours than a large group of princes.  Relying on the vote alone will fail.  The vote crowns a victory; it does not precede it or cause it.  As long as conservatives keep trying to seat princes and not hire troubadours, they’re sunk.  Outside of that, I have no idea what’s needed.  I’m an idiot.

Teachers

We all know that only Catholic priests are molesters, and all of them do so.  Such conduct never happens in public schools.  And it’s all men, 100%.  They are the diseased gender; women are blameless.

Holy s**tholes, Buffalo Bob!  Stop the presses!  I guess we’ll never see these stories on the front page, above the fold, in every newspaper box across the country.  Oh, well; can’t let the truth get in the way of a perfectly honest lie.

Bugs

Starbucks is trying to get away from artificial coloring and sweeteners, so they now use ground up bugs to color their strawberry frapp.  Now vegans are angry that formerly vegan Starbucks (I don’t know how they can call them that when they have meat sammiches, but I’ll never understand the Hipster mind) is doing this.

I do understand that people with food allergies need to know what’s in their foodstuffs, in case they have a reaction to this or that.  But I’ve come across vegans who don’t eat honey because it oppresses the bees by making them work for our benefit and not just for their own hives, and these folk I have in mind when I see this.  It’s not the what, it’s the how, of vegetarianism and veganism that gets my goat.  Actually, Drs. Scarsdale and Ornish showed how a plant based diet fights heart and arterial disease, and watching one’s meat intake can be quite healthy.  If you’re doing it for that, or for some disciplinarian reason, like giving it up for your faith (hello, Jains!) or to just deny yourself as an exercise, fine.  But these people who think man is only bad for the world and worry about bee oppression; c’mon.  You’re in the same boat with people who claim to have an addiction to lip balm and need government paid counseling, and that guy who wrote a book about the images he sees in clouds when he lays out (in a radio interview he admitted he was on government assistance and spent his days watching the clouds go by).

Many in the Greatest Generation used to say “what this country needs is another war or Great Depression to straighten things out.”  Hell, we have TWO wars and another depression, and they haven’t done a thing.

I had recently decided to not spend money at Starbucks, but in light of this, maybe a strawberry frapp would be a good break one day.

Homosexual Marriage

Og covered this topic very well here.  This is my follow-up.  Here’s more on the attacks of peaceful, loving homosexuals who have absolutely no interest in harming the Church.

In Ontario, a lesbian has began an online petition to get the publisher of a Catholic pamphlet about homosexuality to remove wording calling it disordered.  Wording that comes from the Catechism, which is the teaching of the Catholic Church on the matter.  Her kids go to a Catholic school that uses the pamphlet.  She sends her children to a Catholic school, then gets offended when they’re taught bona fide Catholic teaching.  Same as the slut who went to Georgetown for three years mainly to chop at the university for not providing for sex change surgery, in addition to abortion and contraceptives, in their health insurance plan.

This British Member of Parliament wants to ban churches that refuse to perform homosexual marriages from performing all marriages.

It will definitely go that way here.  After all, look at the metamorphosis of the Obamacare Act, which was not supposed to in any fund abortion (Henry Hyde amendment) but now wants everyone to pony up a symbolic dollar to show unanimous support for abortion.

Non serviam.

p.s.:  I seldom, if ever, swear on the blog, but since Bill Maher said that Limbaugh’s only fault in calling that woman a slut was because he has sponsors while he, Maher, can call Sarah Palin a c**t all day long because he is on cable.  So herewith, that woman who testified in a phony Congressional hearing is, on here, known as the slut.  Bill maher said it’s ok.  He gives me permission, and blesses my action in his own secular way.

Death

There is something about liberals and their infatuation with death.  Back when the U.S.A. had a more Christian ethos, I thought some form of nationalized health care would be a good idea, since I figured it would follow the same care lines of private medicine.  Now with the amoral relativistics in charge, both in the socially liberal Democrat party and now via the socially liberal component of the Tea Party and Old Guard in the GOP, I wouldn’t want either one to run the system.  I’d rather have the damn thing run by nuns and brothers like in the olden times.  Here’s Old Kenyan, who never saw a baby he didn’t want dead, advocating the withholding of medical treatment from a viable old person:

Then you have Tom Daschle’s plan on rationing health care.  Rationing means one may not get the care that one needs.  And when I say one, remember that these liberals don’t mean any of them, especially they who make this policy.  It always is you.  Same as imams who urge suicide bombers but never strap on a bomb vest themselves.

Now you first have a group of Oxford medical ethicists who say killing newborns is no different than abortion.  Right on the heels of that comes news of a mobile euthanasia team of medical experts who will be tasked top roam the Netherlands’ countryside looking for unfit to live people to euthanize.  Whether they want or not.  Kind of a modern version of the old Action T4 program:

T4

 

from a pure, secular humanist view, since we are all nothing but meat puppets and glorified animals who simply cease to exist once we die, and once dead we forget we ever existed since memory and thinking die with us, what’s to say this is bad?  In such a mindset, the National Socialists were simply too far ahead of their own time.  To those of us who still cling to the dusty old Bible in one hand while we clutch our guns with the other, this is a horror.  If this what Europe “advanced” toward, it can and will keep advancing toward extinction, and in that light, good riddance.  If they would’ve kept a good and healthy faith in Jesus it might’ve gone better for them, but oh, well.

Toilet Paper

How many people have been killed since the U.S. Army burned some Korans that had notes written in them that were passed around as communication between Al Qaeda members?  In Pakistan, the Koran is being flushed down the toilet, page by page, every day, and yet there is no outcry or revenge killing.  And sometimes whole Korans end up in the sewer somehow.  Well, there is one “holy” man who picks these from the fecal muck whenever the sewer ditch is drained, washes them off, and keeps them around his house.  Pakistan obviously has no residential codes or neighborhood covenants preventing a public nuisance, nor a board of health with any enforcing abilities.  How would you like to be this guy’s neighbor?  If I put my trash cans out more than 24 hours before Garbage Pickup Time, and if I let my lawn grow over six inches tall, it’s Fine Time.  Anyway, the Koranic mess is made from paper that does not bio-degrade (rot, in the language of my youth), hence the build-up.

But if Bibles get found in Afghanistan, not only are they confiscated, but they are burned!

And so it goes, …

New Orleans

“Even after the Super Bowl victory of the New Orleans Saints, I have noticed a large number of people implying with bad jokes that Cajuns aren’t smart. I would like to state for the record that I disagree with that assessment. Anybody that would build a city 5 feet below sea level in a hurricane zone and fill it with Democrats is a damn genius”. – Larry the Cable Guy

Transmission

(Hat tip to American Majority)

Dear Mr. President,
We finally figured out how to get that car you keep talking about out of the ditch. It appears it was stuck in “D,” so we threw it into “R.”

Sincerely,

Working the Picket Line

I’ve always been a union supporter, and in spite of current abuses I see the need for them in the bare sense of the term – the organization that forces due process upon a business, and can bargain for safer working conditions and better pay.  But when the union people are too lazy to man their own picket lines, to where they’d rather outsource their beef to non-union workers earning minimum wage, that’s where they jump the shark.  There’s more irony here than in a battleship:

So instead, the union hires unemployed people at the minimum wage—$8.25 an hour—to walk picket lines. Mr. Raye says he’s grateful for the work, even though he’s not sure why he’s doing it.  “It is bizarre,” says Lynne Baker, a school spokeswoman, about the union’s hiring of nonunion picketers.  Inside, Juan Flores, Can-Am’s foreman, said his nonunionized workers are paid fairly. Of the protesters, he said, “I don’t blame them—they need the money, but they look like they are drunk or something.”

Arizona Giveaway

So Obama a) ordered a halt to the border wall, then b) declared large chunks of southern Arizona to be no travel zones to Americans due to illegals being there in small, armed paramilitary bands.  Nothing like handing a handful of spite to the state trying its utmost to uphold federal immigration laws.

General Pershing, my apologies to your spirit.  Same to your, General (at the time Lieutenant) Patton.  The last time Mexican nationals came roaming into American border towns killing ranchers and terrorizing towns, you two lit up northern Mexico.

Hat tip Indiana Conservative Hardball.
