The Liberal Mind(less)set

John Hawkins : Seven Huge Flaws in the Way Liberals Think - Townhall.com

I think # 5 gets to heart of the flawed Modern Liberal mind. The links were added by me...

5) Liberals believe merely being liberal makes them good people. Liberals who're obsessed with money think they're compassionate because they give away other people's tax dollars. They believe they care more about the earth than other people, even as they fly around in private jets*, because they babble on about global warming. They can be dumb as a rock, but believe they're smarter than most other people because they're liberals. In other words, in the minds of most liberals, liberalism is an all-purpose substitute for actual virtue instead of just another political philosophy.

*Yes, I'm aware that Pelosi uses a jet provided by the military, but the principle is the same because she treats it like her personal property.

While we most certainly should do good and help people, we must be careful to do so in a substantive way - with mind as well as heart. Otherwise our good intentions only serve as more asphalt on the road to hell. Hell for us and the ones we want to assist.

Back To The Fifties With Harry "Jim Crow" Reid

Remember this post where I asked Would Harry Reid Try To Get Obama's Attention By Yelling "Hey Negro"?

Well apparently he would!

The top Democrat in the U.S. Senate apologized on Saturday for comments he made about Barack Obama's race during the 2008 presidential bid and are quoted in a yet-to-be-released book about the campaign.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada described in private then-Sen. Barack Obama as "light skinned" and "with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one." Obama is the nation's first African-American president.

And Joe Biden says "Don't forget clean, Harry! He's clean too!" Reid & Robert Byrd then broke into a rousing duet of "Old Man River" and closed with "Mammy".

Good grief, I don't know whether to laugh at them or feel sorry for them.

Now Who Are The Bad Guys Again?

Child Soldiers to be Freed From U.N.-Monitored Detention Camps in Nepal

Hundreds of former child soldiers who once fought for Nepal's Maoist rebels will finally be released from the U.N.-monitored detention camps they have called home for the past three years to begin new lives as civilians. [...]

Nearly 20,000 former rebel fighters — formally known as the Communist Party of Nepal (Maoist) — have lived in seven main camps since 2006, when they gave up their 10-year armed rebellion to join a peace process and enter mainstream politics. U.N. monitors found that 2,975 of the fighters were under 18.

Let me see if I understand this... The United Nations was helping to hold hundreds of children prisoner in Nepal, but America is evil because of Gitmo. Even though the detainees in Cuba come out healthier, better fed, armed with a Koran and prayer rug, and ready to hit the Jihad running stronger than ever. That about it? Thought so...

Lord It's Like A Hard Leftist Christmas...

White house Christmas tree decorated with Mao, Obama on Rushmore, and a transvestite

...the White House Christmas tree is decorated with bulbs sporting Mao Tse Tung, President Obama on Mount Rushmore and a transvestite. Odd choices for celebrating the birth of Christ in my opinion.

That's quite a troika. Hedda is mostly harmless... not apropos at all, but mostly harmless.

Obama on Rushmore? Well he belongs there right? He knows it, you know it.

But Mao? Oh Tannen-Mao? The man who killed 40 million people and began the persecution of the Church in China that continues to this day? The man who began the persecution of all religion in China that continues to this day? The man who began a holocaust of infanticide (abortion and the murder of little girls) that would make Herod blush? One would like to think even Mr. & Mrs. Barack Hussein Obama aren't that strident and knob-headedly unaware. But apparently one would be wrong.

This is the silly gent who designed the tree.

Let's Make A Deal... For Your Vote

Harkin: Dems Focused on Health Reform Big Picture

Sen. Tom Harkin, D-Iowa, responded Tuesday to widespread criticism that Democrats only garnered the 60 votes needed to defeat Republican stalling tactics on the health reform bill by catering to self-interest, saying Democrats are focusing on the big picture; "trying to cross a demarcation line."

Harkin dismissed deals dubbed vote-buying by GOP senators as "small stuff" that distracted Americans from the primary focus of the overhaul bill.

Just a piffle really. Hardly worth calling bribery. Just your normal run of the mill D.C. "you kiss my ass I'll kiss yours" wheeling and dealing. I'll take what's behind door number 3 Harry. Aw... I'm sorry Tom, it wasn't a new hospital or a lifetime supply of viagra... I'm afraid you've won a 2010 defeat, but we're also giving you - courtesy of Nancy Pelosi - a year's supply of...

You'll Feel A "Pinch" When The Needle Goes In. That's Called The "Point".

Missing The Point On Health Care Reform

If health care passes, but then gets repealed, the President wins. If health care passes, and Democrat Senators don’t get reelected, the President wins. If health care passes, and the House switches to Republican, the President wins. If more Americans are without health care, the President wins.

And Barack Obama thinks that when he wins, America wins. He IS the new America. He is wrong, but don’t anyone tell him that. Not that he’s listening anyway.

This bill is as empty as the President himself. It is meaningless, at this point. Everyone hates it and not because that’s what happens when big bills get passed. Everyone hates this bill because it’s the worst sort of American politics: selling out to special interests, increasing the scope and influence of government, individual mandates, covering the wrong procedures, increasing taxes, cutting care. It’s all in there. It’s vile. And still, all these “historic” provisions are meaningless because they’re all expendable. [...]

This health care bill will be a Democratic soul-killing, empty, symbolic victory and be the perfect symbolic show for the perfect symbolic President. He can say, “I won.”

And that’s the point of this bill.

Don't worry though, when they're through draining your wallet... they'll give you a cookie and some juice. But if you need to see a doctor... unfortunately there'll be bit a of wait.

Jimmy "The Dhimmi" Carter: Worst. President. Ever.

Jimmy Carter: Abuse of Women Including Genital Mutilation is the Fault of Catholics & Southern Baptists

In an address to a gathering sponsored by the World Parliament of Religions (PWR) last Friday, former US President Jimmy Carter has once again blamed traditional religion, particularly Southern Baptists and Roman Catholics, for “creating an environment where violations against women are justified.”

Says Gateway Pundit: Last I checked it was the Muslims who performed female genital mutilation. But, Jimmy Carter would never have the guts to single out Muslims like that.

Jimmah, you... are a doddering old fool.

He's moved on anyway and started shilling for the liars at the University of East Anglia. So it's all good.

Muslim Jihadist Defense Lawyer Snivels & Sniffs For His Bastard Clients

Fenstermaker is just as big a douche as you might expect. There's a difference between wanting to see a fair trial and being a sniveling prick who equivocates about the 9/11 body count.



There's a difference between being a defense attorney and an apologist, and being "presumed" innocent is a legal nicety... it doesn't mean you are.

Awww... This Means Lynne Stewart Won't Be Able To Be A Part Of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's Defense/Aid & Comfort Team...

Via Dr. Sanity: Common Cause With Theocratic, Homophobic, Misogynistic Psychokillers

I just happened to notice this today from Andy McCarthy at The Corner:

A panel of the Second Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals has upheld the convictions of my old adversary, Lynne Stewart, for providing material support to terrorism — i.e., helping the Blind Sheikh run his Egyptian terrorist organization from U.S. prison, where he is serving a life-sentence. The convictions and sentences of the other two defendants were also affirmed. Lynne, who has been out on bail since being convicted eons ago, has been ordered to surrender to begin serving her sentence.

This is simply unbelievable! All this time I thought this leftist terrorist-sympathizer was in jail, and instead, she’s been galavanting around free to continue to create mischief and proudly proclaim her treason.

Too bad we don’t have the balls to execute traitors like Stewart these days.

I'm Sure Andrew Sullivan's Mea Culpa Will Be Coming Forthwith If It Turns Out To Be Insurance Fraud... Not...

AP sources: Probe eyes census worker's insurance

Investigators trying to solve the mystery of a census taker found hanging from a tree with the word "fed" scrawled on his chest are examining whether he manipulated the scene in order to conceal a suicide and make a life insurance claim possible for his son, law enforcement officials told The Associated Press.

The dead man's son, Josh Sparkman, said in an interview with the AP that he found paperwork for the private life insurance policy among the personal files of his father, Bill Sparkman, but wasn't sure of the amount or when it was taken out. He said authorities have told him nothing about the case and haven't produced a death certificate, which is usually needed to make an insurance claim.

Two law enforcement officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the case, said investigators were trying to determine whether Bill Sparkman committed suicide but altered the scene to make it look like a homicide, allowing his son to collect.

What!?! It doesn't appear to be crazy Southern populist terrorism, whipped up by the GOP and its Fox and talk radio cohorts you say? Who could of guessed? Check the strap on your CPAP mask Andy - it's on too tight again.

The Meaning Of The Bow...

Paul Mirengoff: Why does he hate us? Barack Obama's America-effacing presidency

Obama's antipathy toward America should come as no surprise. Although he has lived a rich and varied life, there has been one constant - exposure to the left's disparaging narrative about America.

Obama grew up in a radically left-wing household, attended elite colleges where a jaundiced view of America is orthodox, and spent the remainder of his formative years as a community organizer alongside the likes of former domestic terrorist Bill Ayers and the "God damn America" ranting Jeremiah Wright. No wonder Obama is serving up a "God damn American lite" presidency.

I hate to say I told you... Wait! No I don't... I told you so before you voted for him. A lot of us did. How's that "change" working out for you?

How Did We Let Our Culture Slip This Far? Are We Too Weak To Save Ourselves Now?

Diana West - Diversity Uber Alles

As Gen. Casey blatantly underscored it yesterday on Meet the Press: "Our diversity, not only in our Army, but in our country, is a strength. And as horrific as this tragedy was, if our diversity becomes a casualty, I think that’s worse." The end of "diversity" as a fetish object is "worse" than the massacre at Ft. Hood? Think about it. The general in charge of the Army is saying that if we, as a people, stop worshipping diversity above all and start protecting our soldiers and ourselves from the teachings and goals of Islam,that's "worse" than the carnage at Ft. Hood. Fire Gen. Casey. His duty is to diversity, not his troops.

The Jihad Circus Is Coming To New York City

Holder Announces Plan to Send Alleged Sept. 11 Conspirators to New York Court

Mohammed and the four others -- Waleed bin Attash, Ramzi Binalshibh, Mustafa Ahmad al-Hawsawi and Ali Abd al-Aziz Ali -- are accused of orchestrating the attacks that killed 2,973 people on Sept. 11, 2001, and will now be tried in a courtroom down the street from the World Trade Center.

If they can beat the rap there, they can beat it anywhere! Does the administration have any idea what a farce these trials are going to be? Unfortunately they probably do. They just don't care. They're treating monsters who made war on the USA as common criminals. Why not just charge them with jaywalking, slap'em on the wrist, give'em their green cards and sign'em up for that good ol' free health care? Uh! I take that back! I don't want to give Obama any ideas.

Usually the nonsense liberals spout is kind of cute, but in wartime their instinctive idiocy is life-threatening. ~ Ann Coulter

Barney Frank present during marijuana bust

Sources tell FOX25 that when Frank was questioned he told police that he did not live in the house and that he only smoked cigars.

Congressman Frank tells FOX25 that he was surprised and disappointed with what police found. He also tells us that he wouldn’t recognize a marijuana plant if he saw one because he is, “not a great outdoorsman,” and ,”wouldn’t recognize most plants.”

Barney, I was going to say I didn’t believe a word of your explanation… then I remembered that you didn’t know there was whore house operating out of your basement and you thought Fannie and Freddie were solvent and well run, so I concede the point. You must really be that stupid.

The House Votes on Healthcare

House Weighs Health Bill

...the battle lines have hardened as Democratic leaders predicted passage of the House bill and GOP leaders vowed to derail it.

"We will pass health care reform," House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said after Obama's visit to Capitol Hill.

Meanwhile, House Minority Leader John Boehner vowed to do everything he can to "stop this from becoming law."

"The American people do not want this," he said. "We're going to do everything we can to make sure this does not happen."

House Minority Whip Eric Cantor said Democrats are joining their side to vote against the bill.

... the hour of destruction, or manly opposition to the machinations of tyranny, stares you in the face. Every friend to his country, to himself and posterity ... is now called upon ... to make a united and successful resistance to this last, worst, and most destructive measure of administration. ~ Broadsheets printed in the run-up to the Boston Tea Party
