Union Due

The last several weeks have seen public employees protesting with unprecedented fervor. What I find most interesting is how the same folks who were calling the Tea Party folks violent racists have now decided violence is an appropriate means to their ends. After all, the unions are unabashedly leftist, conservative hating, democrat dominated and politically motivated more than perhaps any other segment of our population.

What has been accepted as practice in Madison, Wisconsin, is vandalism on a staggering scale, overt violence toward a Fox News reporter, the encircling and threatening of a GOP State Senator and angry, hate filled, speech. When the chants of "shame, shame, shame" switched to "fuck you, fuck you, fuck you" even I was surprised at the depths to which the ingrates had sunk.

The public employees engaging in the protests in Madison were so beyond what would be considered "civil" behavior, I, as a citizen would like to see the whole bunch of them fired from their jobs and jailed for the various illegal acts they committed. The media tried over and over to manufacture hate and paint a picture of the Tea Party activists as gun toting, racist, bigoted, violent, homophobic, thugs. The public employees protesting in Madison demonstrated their hatred, used violence, intimidated a lawmaker and essentially kidnapped him (look up the definition) and destroyed or severely damaged public property. Where is all the outrage from the media?

Why is the American media so derelict in their duties? Well, it might have to do with the fact that most of them were schooled by public employees and have had hatred for the right programmed into them since they were in kindergarten. Somebody needs to let them know they need to experience and express a little gratitude or the public who is paying their wages is going to become disgruntled. The public is their paying customer after all and the wholesale contempt for anyone who might be sympathetic to the plight of Governor Walker, risks the fury of their anger.

We, the paying public, who are now questioning the huge paychecks, overly generous benefit packages and fat pensions are worthy of scorn, hatred and even violence if we dare challenge the great sacred cow of the public employee. They have become the caricature of the one who bites the feeding hand and even after latching on refuses to let go until they are clubbed into submission.

I believe Scott Walker had the best intentions but was misguided in one sense. He mixed the issue of balancing the State budget with the need to pare back the unmitigated power of public employee unions. The budget needed balancing but to handcuff the two issues together places the public employee unions right where Walker wanted them least, in the driver's seat. He needs to separate the two issues. Balance the budget then take on the bloated unions.

The unions would have been far more effectively dealt with through Right to Work legislation which could have been introduced separately and would likely have been less polarizing while gaining essentially the same net effect. Yes, I am in-fact available as a political consultant. Is anyone listening?

I believe a watered down version of Walker's proposal will eventually be passed. The Legislators who left the State should be recalled, or worse. The unions will begin to lose their grip on the throats of the taxpayers and ultimately, they will get their due. It is high time.

Tragedy Politicized

At times, it seems the left simply cannot help itself. A tragedy occurred in Tucson this weekend, several people died, a nine year old child, a Federal Judge, several innocent bystanders and a Congresswoman was likely permanently injured. With a tragedy of this magnitude, you would think the last thing on the minds of rational people would be politics. Unfortunately, we are not dealing with rational people when we are talking about liberals.

You see, delving into the mind of a liberal would be like delving into the mind of the shooter himself. In that crazy little space, you will find random, irrational, scattered, and largely illogical thoughts. You have to think back to when you were a young child and something bad happened and the kids on the playground would say something like, “the Government should do something about that” or “if I was President, the Government would buy all the kids toys!” The problem is liberals never grow out of that stage.

I was having a conversation on-line with my son’s girlfriend the other day. She is 17 and epitomizes the thought process of a liberal. I was arguing with her regarding the state of affairs in our home town which is completely dominated by liberals. The City Council has a 6 to 3 majority of liberals over moderates and conservatives. There is not a single conservative State Representative or State Senator from this area. I was complaining that there are no jobs in the area, little economic activity in the region and a lot of empty store fronts. Her response: “Well the City should take those store fronts and convert them to community centers where kids could go paint murals on the walls and put crepe paper on the ceilings.” She went on to explain that when the storefronts are empty, they belong to the City anyway and they should put them to use. I tried to explain to her, the property, in-fact, belongs to a property owner who is paying exorbitant taxes on it whether it was full or empty…she never made that connection and continued to rant about how the kids have nothing to do and how the City should provide them more activities.

She never put two and two together even as I stressed, these things cost money and “the City” has no money and the money they spend comes from taxpayers. She eventually got frustrated with me, I could not see her point. This is the mind of a liberal…a shooting occurred, a Democrat got shot, it must be a Republican or conservative who did the shooting, it just has to be! Never mind the nine year old who died, with arguably no political affiliation, the judge whose political affiliation was also likely unknown to the shooter, the many innocents who were wounded or killed and we must forget about the shooter’s chosen reading.

Among his favorites were Mein Kampf and the Communist Manifesto. Yes, he is definitely a conservative with two of the most extreme leftist ideological manuals among his favorites. What the left fails to recognize is they have begun to believe their own revisionist history. Their teachings would have us believe Hitler was an extreme conservative and Communism is somehow an evil creation of the right. They actually teach this garbage in schools and have students believing it.

It is important to note, this scumbag, whose name I will not repeat here, was a devout anti-Semite, obviously an extreme leftist and that aside, he is completely insane. The left is falling all over itself to paint a picture of him as a Tea Party member, a conservative nut job and some sort of right wing extremist. Unfortunately for the left, the facts don’t support any thesis that he had any affiliation with the right. In-fact, the facts point the opposite direction. So, as the left has now begun to consume itself and their operatives are trying relentlessly to deflect the obvious link the shooter has to their own, we should not engage them. The left must not be confronted as this will only give them traction. We should simply stand and watch in wonder as the left continues to self-destruct. Just as you cannot change the mind of a drug addict until he or she decides they want to change, we cannot, nor should we intervene, argue or try to counter their arguments. We should simply stand by and ensure they do no more damage to the innocent collaterals in the crowd.

Pack a gun, stay away from the left and remain aware. They will now use this tragedy to shamelessly promote their anti-gun, anti-Constitution agenda. Remember the kid on the playground. You would not argue with him, you would just chuckle and say to yourself, “what a dumbass”. We should simply do the same, as the kid on the playground has made it all the way to the White House and in two years, the adults will be back in charge. May the souls we lost over the weekend rest in peace and hopefully, Congresswoman Giffords will be back in office with a full and miraculous recovery in short order.

Islam...Religion or Political Insurgency?

Islam is being propagated at a fury pace across the World and especially in America. Muslims are using our Constitution against us by infiltrating the US under the guise of religious freedom. Just as the Catholic religion burned heretics at the stake for perceived or ginned up heresy, Islam allows raped women to be stoned for adultery, maybe the Catholics should have been more stalwart and prudent in their use of horror and terror. The Muslim "religion" promotes and fights aggressively for sharia law. This system of "law" subjugates women to chattel and is fundamentally, a government subscribed to by at least a billion people around this planet.

Is Islam a religion or is it a border-less government seeking to infiltrate unassuming countries with laws that protect freedom of religion under the guise that it is, in-fact, a religion? The assertion that Islam is anything less than a hostile government involved in espionage, insurgency, infiltration, subversion, and hostile actions is a notion propagated by the left wing scum who wish only to denigrate and destroy this great nation at any cost and through any means, even if it means their own annihilation...sound familiar? The 72 virgins waiting for the Muslim martyrs must also be appealing to the leftists within our own borders who are determined to legitimize Islam as a religion rather than expose it as a fabrication of a nut and promoted by those whose sole desire is to exterminate America and all freedom loving people.

I beg for any person who promotes the notion that Islam is a "peaceful religion" to demonstrate to the World that there is any Islamic dominated or ruled country that is not inherently oppressive to women, anti personal liberty and utterly dictatorial! Further, I beg for anyone to illustrate the picture of a "moderate" Muslim. They simply do not exist and are a fabrication of the left in their relentless pursuit of tyranny and the destruction of Capitalism, through whatever means...again, even if it means their own destruction.

Consider this...destruction is destruction. Creation is creation. Simple concepts...right? The vast majority of the human population would rather create than destroy, would rather build than tear down, would rather love than hate, would rather spend a day on the beach in swim trunks or a bikini than wear a big rag on their heads or a burka...am I wrong? So what sets the Muslims apart from the rest of us? Answer that question and you know who is guided and who are lost.

There is no salvation in the Muslim government, there is no freedom in Islam and those who follow that government will only experience the destruction of their physical bodies and the corruption of their souls. I pray for peace, but embrace those who confront destroyers, I pray for unity but bless those who stand stalwart in protection of freedom against all enemies including the Islamic regime trying to infiltrate and dominate or destroy that which they don't dominate in every corner of this planet. I place my life in front of the Islamic regime tearing our own country apart with their willing accomplices on the left who swear by religious freedom in the face of an onslaught of tyranny and wholesale ignorance of Americans.

Ultimately though, America will prevail and Islam will not. Why? Tyranny never has... our spirit always prevails and to my enemies in the Muslim tyranny, I beg of you to become an ally in freedom. Throw down your burka, for it enslaves you and slavery is not living...lay your life before your enemy. Throw down your sharia laws and fight with your lives for freedom. This is your charge and if you fail to heed it, you turn your back on your own humanity and are destined to lose it as have so many of your brethren. The ability...willingness...zeal to destroy another person's life by beheading them, stoning them, hanging them for some perceived offense to an imaginary deity is evidence enough of a total loss of humanity. This zeal is ultimately a separation from humanity...please ponder that from the perspective of a God that is omnipresent, omniscient, ominpotent and you quickly come to realize, the utter bankruptcy of such an ideology. So humanity is not important but spirituality is you retort! And a spiritual being capable of infinite love, creation and forgiving would condone such hatred and viciousness? Anyone who believes this is not only a fool but a numb-skull and hypocrite. Go in peace my friends.

Election "Judge"

Minnesota is quickly becoming the poster child for election fraud. New videos have been posted regarding election fraud in Minnesota where the last Senate election between moderate Republican incumbent Norm Coleman and challenger, comedian, Democrat-Farmer-Labor Party (the Minnesota Democrat party) and political leftist hack, was decided by 312 votes.

Minnesota has already become the butt of so many jokes when it comes to elections. In Minnesota, anyone can vote, quite literally. If you show up in Minnesota on election day, it matters not where you live or even if you live in Minnesota. Any person in Minnesota can "vouch" for you. Each person voting can "vouch" for as many as 15 people in every precinct, over and over again. You need not register prior to election day to vote in Minnesota in any election as you can show up at the poll with somebody who "knows you" and your ballot counts the same as a legitimate one.

What is most despicable and disgusting is the head of elections in Minnesota, Secretary of State, Mark Ritchie supports and, in-fact, advocates for the status quo. Mark Ritchie benefits from fraud and is unwilling to take on the system that put him into office and the system he is now in charge of.

How did Minnesota and so many other corrupt states end up here? Ignorance, apathy, stupidity, manipulation and domination by the ruling class. Until the folks in Minnesota and similarly governed Marxist states understand how devious, evil, fraudulent and thuggish the Democrat and in Minnesota, the DFL party are, they are destined, damned and deserving of their fate.

Election Integrity?

Well, another election cycle is, for all intents and purposes, in the tank. Save an 11th hour miracle by the Democrat Party, massive voter fraud (which we can count on) or a Constitutional Crisis manufactured by the Bam, Congress will take on a very different complexion.

States will adopt new assemblies, legislatures, Governorships and a shift in representation in Congress. The many races will be defined, unfortunately, by the ability of the populace to instill the fear of God into those who are willing to participate in fraud. The final outcome will also hinge largely on which side of the aisle has motivated the base and attracted so-called, independents.

The only remaining problem is, in this most politically charged and crucial election season, we still have the political correctness factor that demands election laxity to prevent anyone from being disenfranchised...even if that means allowing the old adage of "vote early, vote often" to come to fruition hundreds of thousands of times across the nation. Will there be enough criminals out there, willing to risk time behind bars to sway races away from the true victor? The answer to this question rests with every American.

Ask yourself the following question: Are you so driven by your political dogma that you are willing to sell your integrity to your chosen candidate? Integrity is the basis of honor and the only true measure of a person. If you are willing to sell yourself out to the lowest or even highest bidder, what is your true worth? Ponder that and ponder something more immediate and tangible. The folks who believe integrity is paramount are out in full force and will see to it that any scoundrel who chooses to commit voter fraud is not only detected but prosecuted and jailed.

Brave New World

In the calamitous times we live, the "end of the recession" would seem a good thing. The problem with the theory, economic growth equals the end of the recession, is the only growth has been in the public sector.

For the sake of reality, we have to agree on one thing, trillions pumped artificially into an economy will result in growth, at least short term. The problem is, this is artificial money. The money pumped into the economy by the Obama administration does not exist. By that I mean, it is money that has no value other than the paper it is printed on and the debts that now exist to prop it up. Billions in highway projects funded by the "American Reinvestment Act" or in other words, funded by Americans, will have some demonstrable economic impact, however artificial and temporary. Simply the fuel purchased by the contractors will create some growth.

On the other side of this fiasco of Keynesian economics it doesn't take a rocket scientist to understand the wholesale sellout of the American economy to Chinese prospectors will eventually bear the negative fruit of obligation. Just as when you refinance your home to prop up your business, you turn your back on the real problem...the business cannot support itself. Trust me, I know. There will eventually be a backlash from all the money that was printed, borrowed or simply guaranteed by the "government". Government spending is nothing more than taxpayer money spent by proxy. Either the taxpayer will have to pay it back, resulting in economic contraction, or there will be explosive inflation having the same net effect, a degrading of the value of a dollar.

What Barack Hussein Obama, Nancy-fly me everywhere all the time-Pelosi, and Harry-I have a pot to piss in so there simply isn't a problem-Reid don't understand is common sense to the rest of us; you cannot spend money you don't have. Is there a silver lining? Well like anything bad, there always is and this time around it is an awakening of the American conservative. Nothing will motivate people to pull their heads from dark, tight places, like government officials intruding on their freedoms and their pocketbooks with delight. The next election will be a referendum on big government and the poll question going in is: Do you approve of Barry and his band of thieves? To this, America will deliver a bold, capitalized, italicized, NO!

The "League" vs. Minnesota Voters Alliance

The Minnesota Voters Alliance, a small election integrity oriented group, announces they have filed a complaint with the IRS against the League of Women Voters. The complaint and all the information they used to compile it is posted on their website at www.mnvoters.org. The complaint alleges "the League" has used a confusing array of branding to ultimately gain favor with donors and create sufficient confusion that donors may be writing off donations that are, in-fact, not tax deductible.

The Minnesota Voters Alliance makes a compelling case against the venerable group known to most only as "The League of Women Voters". A little digging reveals a complex and confusing group with many affiliates, local "chapters" and a seemingly endless trail of confusing branding, IRS filings and blurred borders between their education "fund", a 501 (c) (3) and their lobbying arm, a 501(c)(4).

What is even more interesting is how the group shares and co-mingles funds, offices, membership, leadership, staff, branding and makes little if any effort to distinguish between the two separate entities both at the local and National levels.

By all appearances, this David (the Minnesota Voters Alliance) has their Goliath ("the League") on the ropes and getting ready to put them down for the count. It seems the Goliath in this instance has crossed a number of legal borders in their relentless pursuit of left wing goals, never considering they might be challenged at some point. The Minnesota Voters Alliance obviously has some brilliant and tenacious, if not brave, minds working behind the scenes. The League of Women Voters paints a picture of being beyond reproach and the consummate pillar of integrity, when in-fact, they are merely another shill for the Democrat party.

What is interesting is the "League" as they commonly refer to themselves, appear to be vulnerable to the IRS and if the IRS takes action on MVA's complaint, may be vulnerable to loss of their tax exempt status. The IRS takes a dim view of any organization that conducts lobbying under the flag of a tax deductible group. Even if the "League" can demonstrate their use of tax-deductible donations for educational activities, they will be hard pressed to explain what appears to be deliberately confusing in their branding. The only distinction between the tax deductible organization and the non-tax deductible organization is the last two words of the names of the respective organizations. The Tax deductible funds go to "The league of Women Voters Education Fund" and the non-tax deductible dollars ostensibly go to "The League of Women Voters US". Confused? Well I think nearly anyone trying to distinguish between the two groups would be and therein lies the problem.

The IRS demands there be no confusion when an individual is preparing a tax return between those donations that are tax deductible and those that aren't. A person would have to be intimately familiar with the inner operations and organization of the "League" to understand which group is which and which donations go where. How many of you are forensic accountants? Good luck sorting this one out and kudos to the Minnesota Voters Alliance for taking the time to do it.
