Rapist tells Democrats to “relax and let this happen.”

Members of the Democrat Party must find it comforting to be told to “relax and let this happen” by a known rapist. Of course, now there are Democrats that may not defend Bill Clinton against credible allegations of rape as B. Hussein Obama has captured the hearts and what passes for the minds of many Democrat dolts. So the rapist has a new target, his own party.

This time, at least, his victim isn’t innocent. The party that fights for abortion on demand, amnesty for illegals, defeat in Iraq, punitive taxing of the productive, and strangling regulation of business can not be viewed as a sympathetic victim. The Democrat Party strife is something of a consolation prize to some of us conservatives that are absolutely disgusted with the continued downward spiral of The Republican Party. It is tragic that our nominee fights for two of the previously mentioned pillars of leftist ideology.

So McCain-Feingold and open primaries ensured that The Republican Party would not have a conservative candidate, back to the admitted Democrats. What will it take to settle the nomination? Certainly Shrillary Clinton believes she has a right to the nomination and the office. She did not marry the rapist because she loved him and she definitely didn’t stay married to him for the sake of the junior campaigner (Chelsea.) I can’t imagine what would precede her concession. I doubt she could muster a concession. If B. Hussein Obama is declared the nominee I am envisioning a moment similar to the awarding of the gold jacket to Happy Gilmore and Shooter McGavin grabbing it and running away being chased by angry Gilmore fans. I hope she does not go down without a fight.

Aside from the entertainment value of the “Deathmatch” between Shrillary and B. Hussein, there may be a positive outcome for the nation. If the fight leaves the Democrat Party torn badly enough, the notion that there can only be two dominant parties might weaken. If The Republican Party can wake up to the idea that emulating the Democrat Party may not be in the best interest of itself or the country, we might eventually get decent representation. At the very least, a torn Democrat Party might allow a torn Republican Party to spawn a viable conservative coalition that can refocus the nation toward freedom and limited government.

It is incredible that I find myself wanting Shrillary to stay in the race. My hope that the two-headed big government party system may be broken as an unintended consequence of the Clintons’ latest rape may not have much chance of being realized, but at least I have some glimmer of hope. (Disclaimer: I did not get permission from B. Hussein’s campaign to use the word “hope.”)

What else can the benevolent government save us from?

I have been saddened to hear and read cries for the government to interfere in the personal lives of the people that live in this country. One such cry to emulate Hugo Chavez comes from the business section of the L.A. Times:

One way to balance government assistance to participants in the credit crisis — whether it’s branded a bailout or a rescue — is to link it to tighter regulation of lenders and borrowers.

These can include strict capital requirements for investment banks that have accepted Fed money, underwriting standards for mortgages and consumer loans to prevent imprudent lending and borrowing, and mandated disclosures of the risks of various loans and bundled securities.

The Washington Post takes a different approach, painting the mortgage situation as unfairly targeting poor hispanics that do not speak English (and apparently have no common sense.) In an article that should be read to sad violin music, titled “My House. My Dream. It Was All an Illusion.” the subtitle sets the tone:

Latina’s Loss in Va. Epitomizes Mortgage Crisis

I say we shouldn’t limit government interference to the current mortgage situation. People that entered into mortgages they couldn’t repay shouldn’t be the only ones to have their mistakes paid for by the taxpayers of this country. The possibilities for government interference see almost limitless. If we can just convince the federal and state governments to … well stay on their current paths, we can realize the socialist utopia that would make most Democrat politicians proud. Perhaps if the following suggestions are followed Michelle Obama might even be proud of her country.

I humbly ask that the United States government cut through the red tape and take the following actions (or interferences:)

  • Some college students enroll in classes that are too difficult for them. Their grades might be lower than some of their peers. This cannot be allowed to continue! We need The Department of Education to commission a study to determine the best method for grade equalization. Once the commission presents its findings to Congress, a law should be crafted to ensure that sufficient funds are directed to these institutions of mediocre learning to enable them to assign every student identical grades.
  • Some people lie on their resumes and accept jobs that they are not qualified to perform. Should these people be forced to leave those jobs once their incompetence is proven? Absolutely not! We are not humane if we allow these people to be cast from their positions by ruthless employers who expect to hire competent employees. The Department of Labor must commission a study to determine the best way to enable all job-seekers to use one universal resume. In addition, Congress must pass a law setting employment standards that eliminate qualifications as qualifications for employment.
  • What about people that buy a dozen eggs at their local grocery stores only to get them home and drop them on the driveway? What is to protect their investment? The Department of Commerce should obviously make recommendations to Congress requiring that the retailer be responsible for the safety of the eggs until the moment of consumption!
  • Some people fall victim to the climate and anthropogenic global warming when they purchase large ice cream cones that they cannot consume entirely before they begin to melt. Government action must be taken to ensure that the responsibility for the wasted ice cream and sticky hands be held by the predatory ice cream vendors!

We must take the steps necessary to ensure that we, the people bear no personal responsibility for any of our own actions. Working together we can ensure that we will all be wards of the state, taken care of and controlled by Mrs. Hillary-care Clinton or Mr. B. Hussein Obama.

One-sided socialized medicine debate at Riverbender.com

My opponent at “Right Turn - Left Turn” at www.Riverbender.com/politics sat out the latest discussion so my “Right Turn” is published unopposed. If any left leaning writer is interested in occasionally participating, please follow the link where the “Left Turn” side woud be.

Right Turn

righty

There is an unfortunate push in our country to duplicate mistakes made by other countries. This push seems to have become a focal point of the modern Democratic Party platform, which would institute socialism if it could. Democrats are joined by some liberal Republicans in their quest to effectively turn our nation into the U.S.S.A. (United Socialist States of America.)

Healthcare is possibly the most obvious target of the movement as is evidenced by the current presidential race and the specter of Hillary Care. It is inconceivable to a thoughtful person that the bloated bureaucracy that manages the postal service and the IRS should be controlling healthcare, yet that is the goal of the Democrats. It is hard to determine the root cause of the problem because we cannot know if Democratic politicians lust for power overrides common sense or if the Democratic politicians believe that any citizen that is not a Democratic politician is simply too ignorant to make his or her own decisions.

B. Hussein O. lying like the true Illinois politician he is

A January 2007 article in The Chicago Tribune is titled: “Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright, Jr.: Pastor inspires Obama’s ‘audacity.’” This article presents Reverend Wright as the one who, in B. Hussein’s own words keeps his “moral compass calibrated.”

Obama says that rather than advising him on strategy, Wright helps keep his priorities straight and his moral compass calibrated.

“What I value most about Pastor Wright is not his day-to-day political advice,” Obama said. “He’s much more of a sounding board for me to make sure that I am speaking as truthfully about what I believe as possible and that I’m not losing myself in some of the hype and hoopla and stress that’s involved in national politics.”

Obviously B. Hussein respects Reverend Wright and values his guidance in his life… or at least until the DVDs that apparently the church sold on its web-site became public. Now the great orator of emptiness has written a piece on the always balanced Huffington Post in which he seeks to distance himself from the inspiration for his book and his personal moral compass calibration unit. I just wish he would distance himself from this line in his church’s mission statement:

The fortunate who are among us combine forces with the less fortunate to become agents of change for God who is not pleased with America’s economic mal-distribution!

Does B. Hussein believe in socialist redistribution of wealth or is this something he suddenly rejects as well as Reverend Wright? Perhaps if B. Hussein O. played the role of a modern day Robin Hood, even Michelle Obama could be proud to be an American for the second time in her adult life.

But I digress. Back to B.H.O.’s silky smooth posting on HuffPo, where he is obviously the choice candidate of the publisher. The man who convinces so many people that he is for magical, mystical, substance lacking change wrote a piece called “On My Faith and My Church,” in which he insinuates that if Reverend Wright weren’t retiring, he might have left the church!

The statements that Rev. Wright made that are the cause of this controversy were not statements I personally heard him preach while I sat in the pews of Trinity or heard him utter in private conversation. When these statements first came to my attention, it was at the beginning of my presidential campaign. I made it clear at the time that I strongly condemned his comments. But because Rev. Wright was on the verge of retirement, and because of my strong links to the Trinity faith community, where I married my wife and where my daughters were baptized, I did not think it appropriate to leave the church.

It might be more believable if he were to say that he rarely attended church and only belonged to the church for the political capital to be gained. This way it would at least be possible that he would not have personally heard on of Rev. Wright’s blazing tirades against America. This would also explain why he is a liberal Democrat, since if he never went to church and if the pastor was the one who calibrated his “moral compass,” then it is understandable that the “moral compass” is so far out of calibration!

How dare a state not reward illegal behavior with in-state tuition?

Imagine the horror of possibly having to work your way through college. Such a nightmare should be reserved for children of citizens, not for the offspring of left’s favorite group of people (illegal aliens.) As if it weren’t bad enough that these victims of society have to dwell in the shadows imposed by a cruel populace that believes that illegal acts should not be rewarded (unless there is a news camera around to pose for.) Now it seems that states like Virginia won’t allow their universities to reward the illegal aliens with in-state tuition for their children.

Excerpt from The Washington Post article:

Nelson Lopez is worried. He doesn’t want to get his father, who works in the warehouse of a carpet-and-blinds store, in trouble. And he’s really scared that when his adviser challenges the colleges on this point, he might be hurting his chances of admission — what applicant wants to pick a fight? He was just going to accept the situation, maybe get a job and take a bus from his dad’s apartment to classes at a community college, but Leyva was furious.

Isn’t it tragic that illegal aliens must suffer the shame of having their children get a job and attend community college… like an average American citizen’s child might? Illegal aliens, being the sought after voting block of the left should be treated better than this! Here are some suggestions for rewards that the three liberal front-runners in the presidential race may want to offer in order to woo the illegal vote:

- 0% financing for motor vehicle purchases for anyone that cannot prove citizenship.

- $5 worth of free lottery tickets every week for the next four years for everyone that does not have a valid social security number

- Fixed rate sub-prime mortgages for anyone meeting the above criteria and is also willing to display the Mexican flag above the U.S. flag outside the home.

- Front of the line placement when the time comes for NAU identification cards for anyone that provides evidence that aids in the conviction of any member of our border patrol.

Fox Porn Channel?

Did Hugh Hefner buy Fox News Channel? Or perhaps it was the “Girls Gone Wild” guy? Surely there must be some logical reason that we can no longer have the television on Fox News with children in the room. I s it ever again going to be possible to turn on a news channel and not wonder if you are watching a late night infomercial for some raunchy DVD?

Why would a news channel promote the entertainment career of the Spitzer slut? I don’t doubt that the other channels are doing the very same thing, but Fox is the most personally disappointing as it is the one we normally watched (past tense intentional.) What is newsworthy about photos of the slut in a bikini? What is newsworthy about her desire for a music career?

The only informational value provided, unfortunately, is to young girls. Fox News Channel is illustrating one way a young girl might be able to get her fifteen minutes (or days) of fame. Want to be famous? We’ve shown you the Paris method, the Brittney method, and the Lindsay method. Now we give you a role model that technically is a whore! The “Culture Warrior” must be so proud.

Does Fox have a record label? If they do, they might as well sign the musical hooker to a contract so they can really cash in.

Washington Post doesn’t know the meaning of the word “illegal”

The Washington Post Headline screams sob story. It reads “Latinos Looking Over Shoulder.”

According to the writers, day laborers in Prince William County can no longer get coffee in the morning or go to latino restaurants at lunch time. They all live in fear now that police are empowered to check immigration status when any infraction of the law is committed.

Immigrant advocate groups, speaking at a community meeting Sunday in Woodbridge and on local Spanish-language radio stations, have been advising immigrants without legal papers to keep a low profile and obey all traffic rules. If stopped by police, the groups said, they should be polite and show some identification but otherwise remain silent until they can see a lawyer.

“We are telling people to drive perfectly, not to spit or jaywalk, and not to carry anything in a brown paper bag,” said Nancy Lyhall, a volunteer with the local pro-immigrant group Mexicans Without Borders. “They should be the model of model citizens.”

What the Washington Post writers don’t seem to grasp is the fact that only illegal aliens have reason for concern. Hispanics in the country legally are being painted as victims of an oppressive and racist legal system. The obvious solution to any worries the affected group (illegal aliens) might have would be to not commit infractions. They should perhaps start by remedying the initial infraction they committed by entering the country illegally. The lowest profile is maintained by not being there.

The Washington Post may want to try a little intellectual honesty when reporting on enforcement of laws affecting illegal aliens only (this doesn’t include implying in the article that all hispanics should worry about being stopped and possibly deported for small infractions.)

U.S. district judge rules to keep Illinois attractive to abortion seeking statutory rapists!

From The Telegraph:

CHICAGO (AP) — A federal judge refused to allow enforcement of an ill-fated state law requiring teenage girls to notify their parents before getting abortions, potentially ending any chance the decades-old measure will ever take effect.

Abortion rights groups on Saturday hailed the ruling on the legislation that was passed in 1984 and updated in 1995 but has never been enforced because of complex legal wrangling.

U.S. District Judge David H. Coar is the man that the ACLU, Planned Parenthood, Hope Clinic, and child molesters in neighboring states can look to as their new hero. His ruling effectively allows statutory rapists to continue to bring their victims into Illinois for abortions. Apparently this “judge” feels there should be options to parental consent that just don’t exist in the Illinois law. I suppose he has no trouble sleeping at night even though he has provided aid and comfort to pedophiles.

Here we have yet another example of what passes for justice in our courts. I would give anything to know what the motivating factors are for such a judgment. Is Coar simply an activist judge that supports abortion at all costs? Does he have soul? Does the notion of a young girl being raped and forced to have an abortion appeal to this “judge?” While we cannot know the answer to these questions, we can know for certain that David H. Coar is an accomplice in any future abortion carried out on a minor victim of rape in Illinois!

Brutal crime and lenient punishment

Imagine a system of justice that actually served the purpose of exacting justice. Imagine a legal system in which the rights of victims were considered at least as much as the rights of criminals. Can you imagine such a system in which the more serious crimes begat appropriate punishment? An imaginary justice system is the only justice system that lives up to its name.

The sick excuse for a legal system that exists in our society does benefit some people. One such beneficiary is former policeman Bobby Cutts, Jr. All Cutts did was accidentally kill his pregnant girlfriend in front of their small child during an argument. He must yell extremely loud in order to kill a person by arguing with her! From USAToday.com:

The case of Jessie Davis, 26, received national attention in part because of the role the couple’s son played in the investigation. The 3-year-old boy gave investigators an important clue when he told them: “Mommy’s crying. Mommy broke the table. Mommy’s in the rug … Daddy’s mad.”

After denying any knowledge of her whereabouts, Cutts, 30, eventually led detectives to the missing woman’s body, which was wrapped in a comforter.

Cutts said during the sentencing phase that he accidentally killed Davis during an argument.

Cutts could have received the death penalty but the jury recommended life in prison, eligible for parole in 30 years. In 30 years Cutts may be able to roam free again, able to live out his remaining years as he pleases. Jessie Davis and their baby don’t have that luxury as there are no remaining years for either of them. The jury must have felt that Cutts is a better person than either of his victims were, otherwise it would be impossible to justify allowing him to live when justice was an option.

How will the jury in the case of 28 year old Kevin Underwood react to his gruesome murder and mutilation of a 10 year old girl? From FOXNews.com:

In his closing argument, Defense attorney Matthew Haire did not dispute Underwood’s guilt. But he called him “a lonely, very troubled, reclusive young man” and accused prosecutors of overwhelming jurors with gruesome evidence.

In the confession, Underwood said he lured the girl, his upstairs neighbor, into his apartment in Purcell, hit her with a cutting board, smothered her with his hands, sexually assaulted the body and nearly cut her head off as part of a fantasy involving cannibalism.

Underwood’s defense is going to call witnesses to testify about his use of an antidepressant in hopes of avoiding the death penalty. This beast fantasized about eating a person and brutally murdered a little girl as a means of fulfilling a fantasy! How can there be a question as to whether or not he deserves death? I would suggest that the death he deserves would have the vile scum at the ACLU fighting tooth and nail to prevent his execution. As it is, the legal means of execution should be the minimum sentence for this monster. Let us all remember that he committed these brutalities for pleasure.

I sometimes fantasize about what it might be like if our legal system became concerned with justice. How outrageous is that?
