STAY AWAY FROM BECK AND HIS RALLY IN DC

Glenn Beck Personifies Duplicity

By Jerry A. Kane

Under the listing for duplicity in Miriam Webster’s Dictionary for Wisdom-Challenged Americans, lexicographers have written:

Contradictory doubleness of thought, speech, or action; especially: the belying of one’s true intentions by deceptive words or action; see Glenn Beck.

The John Kerry flip-flop heard ’round the world—”I actually did vote for the $87 billion before I voted against it”—pales in comparison to the flip-flops made by “the champion of the conservative populist tea party movement.”

For example, Beck was for Dutch lawmaker Geert Wilders before he was against him. He sided with the skeptics who questioned the science behind claims of man-made global warming, before he said “that global warming has, at least in part, been caused by mankind.” And he was for the 9.12 Project and voter registration efforts this November before he backed away and abandoned them.

Beck’s initial plan for his upcoming August 28, 2010, “Restoring Honor” rally at the Lincoln Memorial in the nation’s capitol was to provide “specific policies, principles, and … action steps” to launch “a new national movement to restore our great country.”

That idea, which he announced to much fanfare at a November rally in Florida … also included a series of pay-for-admission “conventions” which included voter registrations and training on “how to be a political force in your own neighborhood and country.”

But he abruptly dropped those plans … early this year, telling his radio listeners in January he quickly realized … it would force his followers to engage in a partisan political system he blasts as corrupt.—Kenneth P. Vogel and Giovanni Russonello

Like Buffo Bill O’Reilly, the Foxian brother from another mother, Beck is a duplicitous “chameleon who changes his political viewpoints on a whim depending on whose company he keeps.” He is now promoting the rally as an apolitical event with instructions to his followers to keep their political signs at home.

Beck’s rally, slated to take place near the same spot at the Lincoln Memorial where Dr. Martin Luther King delivered his “I Have a Dream Speech” 47 years earlier, will be competing for media attention with the Reverend Al Sharpton, whose “Reclaim the Dream” rally is scheduled the same day in Washington.  

Saturday’s “Beckaplooza” could end with Beck as de facto leader for advancing conservative values and Reagan conservatism, which on its face is laughable if it weren’t so tragic. Like Brother Bill and the Reverend Al, Beck is a populist windbag in the mold of a Father Coughlin.

“There have been discussions continuously over the last year about whether he is necessarily a force for good … Beck takes it outside of the realm of fiscal conservatism into issues that are more emotional and make you wonder if we really want to be associated with this guy.”—Andrew Ian Dodge, Tea Party Patriots State Coordinator for Maine

Beck also has an affinity to America’s 19^th-century snake oil salesmen. Not only has he managed to keep his limbs intact, but he has also convinced many buyers of his poisonous tripe to hawk it as a “healing” elixir for the nation’s woes.

“We very much appreciate and support Glenn’s general message … so whatever direction he chooses to take with this day and this march, we support it.”—Tim Phillips, President of Americans for Prosperity

Tea Party groups including Americans for Prosperity, FreedomWorks, and Tea Party Patriots as well as the National Rifle Association are helping to finance and promote the crass opportunist’s Saturday rally. A turnout anywhere near 100,000 people would make the rally historic from the media industry’s perspective.

“If … that many people come … it will be historic in the annals of broadcasting. And then, obviously, he is more than just an entertainer. He is somebody who is able to motivate people politically.”—Michael Harrison, founder and publisher of TALKERS Magazine

Prudence dictates that patriots should keep their distance from Beck and Saturday’s rally. American conservatism is too precious an ideology to trust to a skillful rodeo clown much less a duplicitous, feckless huckster.

ARIZONA REPUBLICANS SHOULD BE ASHAMED IF MCCAIN WINS THE PRIMARY

If the polls are correct, John McCain will win Arizona’s primary today and face the Democrat for another six-year term in the US Senate. Arizona Republicans don’t seem to care that McCain has consistently sided with left-wing Democrats to obstruct nearly every significant piece of conservative legislation advanced during his career.

There’s something about Arizona

By MrArbitrage

I’m receiving a great deal of positive emails from various sources like one sent today from Newsmax.com titled: Armey: Tea Party Movement Will Revolutionize GOP http://www.newsmax.com/InsideCover/dickarmeyteaparty/2010/08/21/id/368077?s=al&promo_code=A929-1.

That sounds great but it is difficult to get excited when one of the most contemptible senators in modern GOP history is presumably coasting into the nomination for another 6 year senate term.

It seems as though Arizonans enjoy being in the lime-light regardless of the reason. It doesn’t matter that their so-called “maverick” received that moniker as a result of being a left-winged appeaser who has obstructed conservatives in just about every significant piece of conservative legislation advanced during his career.

Since November 2008, conservatives nationwide have been on a mission to extricate the left-wing of our party as we have been reaping the devastating consequences of squandering an extremely rare Republican majority of the House, Senate and Executive branch. Conservatives nationwide have been on the warpath to accomplish this task –EXCEPT- for many of those calling themselves Republicans in Arizona.

All conservatives support the immigration bill but John McCain had nothing to do with that. Of course, being an election year, he is more than willing to capitalize on its popularity. I suppose we can chalk up this illegal immigration legislation to the blind squirrel factor (getting an acorn every once in a while). Congrats to Governor Jan Brewer for taking the lead.

It is mind boggling how so many people in that state can be so easily persuaded by this liberal. Just because they had some good times during the presidential campaign (which their guy lost pathetically), they think he is worthy of that senate seat. This is all in spite of the fact that McCain is the epitome of what went wrong with the GOP over the past two decades. This imposter has no more business calling himself a Republican than does Arlen Specter.

Frankly, I am embarrassed for Arizonans who are forcing this guy on the rest of us. They should be ashamed because while they bask in the attention they apparently crave, the rest of the country knows that no matter how many conservative coup d’états OTHER STATES achieve in these primaries – one of the chief obstructionists to the conservative movement is still going to be there to screw them over every step of the way. I really believe that if McCain was up for re-election in any other state right now he would be out on his rear where he belongs. Even Pennsylvania had enough sense to see the damage they had done by tolerating his nonsense.

So J.D. Hayworth made an endorsement on an infomercial encouraging people to buy a program to help them utilize money from government programs? The fact that this “charge” is the best the McCain camp could come up with says a great deal. How many times has McCain harped on this ridiculous point? Most of those programs J.D. was referencing probably had the legislative support of John McCain during all of the years he was stabbing conservatives in the back. McCain probably co-sponsored them.

To be fair, you have to look at what the two men have actually helped to promulgatewhen they were in office, not what TV commercials they did years afterward. By the way, where are all of the people who could rightfully be making fun of Fred Thompson for hocking reverse mortgages?

One guy (Hayworth) endorsed a guide or program that would help people to access grants that already existed. The other (McCain) spent an entire career jumping on almost every opportunity to sell out conservatives – because he couldn’t resist the media plaudits that accompanied his legislative treachery.

Look at the fruits people. Look at all of the years he screwed us to the wall. Look at the left-winged pro-gay marriage promoting antics of his wife and his daughter. They are all cut from the same cloth and they should all be ashamed to claim the title of Republican much less conservative – as should any voter devoid of the sensibilities to see this obvious fact.

CONNECTICUT SCHOOL MULLS ‘SPY CHIPS’ FOR STUDENTS

“Imagine a world of no more privacy. Where your every purchase is monitored and recorded in a database, and your every belonging is numbered. Where someone … has a record of everything you have ever bought, of everything you have ever owned, of every item of clothing in your closet, every pair of shoes. … We may be standing on the brink of that terrifying world if global corporations and government agencies have their way.”—Katherine Albrecht  

School officials in New Canaan, Connecticut, are looking into testing radio-frequency identification (RFID), a.k.a. spy chips, to track people on campus.

According to district transportation coordinator Roy Walder, the RFID technology would help to locate people during an emergency or keep tabs on the comings and goings of people on school grounds.

Right now school board members are just considering the idea and have not yet agreed to partnership in the test program with SecureRF Corporation, the company that makes the RFID devices.

“A constantly experimental attitude toward everything-that’s all we need.”—Walden Two

Albeit a different frequency, RFID chips are being used on children’s clothing, back packs, and student IDs in primary schools in Osaka, Japan. Also some schools in England are using RFID chips in school uniforms and ID cards.

Oceania! Oceania! Oceania, ’tis for thee!

Every deed, every thought, ’tis for thee!

Every deed, every thought, ’tis for thee!

Every deed, every thought, ’tis for thee!

If the Board decides to incorporate the test program, participation would be voluntary and parents would have to agree to allow their children to participate.

When the children are tardy or even one-minute late to class, Big Brother will know. He will be watching; he will be always watching.

“From the Age of Big Brother, from the Age of the Thought Police, from a dead man… greetings.”—from the diary of Winston Smith

BLOOMBERG CHAMPIONS RELIGIOUS RIGHTS OF MUSLIMS BUT NOT CHRISTIANS

New York City officials have been fighting for 15 years to keep the Bronx Household of Faith from meeting in a vacant public school space on weekends. Even though the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the government cannot keep religious groups from public facilities once they have been opened to other community organizations, New York City officials flatly refuse to allow the small Christian congregation access to the facility.

NY City Mayor Bloomberg’s “our values and our traditions endure … there is no neighborhood in this city that is off-limits to God’s love and mercy” declaration appears to be nothing more than leftist meat in a crap sandwich.

Bloomberg emphatically embraces Muslim worship in a proposed victory shrine at Ground Zero in lower Manhattan, yet his First Amendment zealotry disappears once he’s asked to uphold the religious rights of congregants who belong to the Greek Orthodox Church destroyed on 9/11 or the Bronx Household of Faith.

The real question is why did New Yorkers twice elect such a despicable scoundrel to lead them and represent their city? In a government constructed of the people, by the people, and for the people, its elected officials are a reflection of the people themselves; i.e., corrupt, devious, hypocritical leaders are symptomatic of a wicked society.

YO DEMS! YOU’RE FIRED!

The 3:11 video below was posted and then scrubbed a few hours later, so catch it before the thought police return.  The video sends the following message to the George Soros controlled Democrat Party in power: We are coming for your jobs now, so pack it in; you’re fired.

Democrat trolls are deleting or scrubbing politically offensive materials from the Internet continually; therefore, it’s wise to download and save materials you like for they may not be there the next time you look for them.

PHILADELPHIA CONFISCATES BLOGGERS’ MEAGER EARNINGS

Marilyn Bess’s hobby is a low-traffic blog about green living. Between her blog and few pieces to ehow.com, she made about fifty bucks over three years, and now the city of Filthydelphia wants a piece of the action. And the city government’s not just shakin’ her down. After reporting their small earnings on this year’s tax filings, several Philadelphia bloggers have received notices demanding $300 for a privilege license as well as taxes on any profits.

“The real kick in the pants is that I don’t even have a full-time job, so for the city to tell me to pony up $300 for a business privilege license, pay wage tax, business privilege tax, net profits tax on a handful of money is outrageous.”—Marilyn Bess

According to tax attorney Michael Mandale, it doesn’t matter if bloggers make only a pittance, Filthydelphia mandates privilege licenses for any business engaged in an “activity for profit whether or not they earned a profit during the preceding year.”

Filthydelphia’s city government, like most governments in major U.S. cities, is run by Democrats. To those Filthydelphians who continually vote for the “protectors of the downtrodden,” I offer the following advice:  Take comfort in what your Vice President Joe Biden said when Democrat officials stop by to shake the loose change from your pockets or to appropriate the gold filings from your teeth:

“Time to be patriotic … time to jump in; time to be part of the deal; time to help get America out of the rut.”— Joe Biden, Democrat Vice President of the U.S.

When Filthydelphians elect looter Democrats to make their city’s tax laws and policies, they richly deserve fleecing. So shut up while they rob you blind and take comfort in knowing that you are a patriot.

TIME TO TAKE OFF THE GLOVES AND SAVE AMERICA

Although the message in the video below is incontrovertible, based on the information from their Web site the messengers clearly don’t recognize that America’s real enemy is the George Soros shadow party, i.e., the Democrat Party. The messengers regurgitate Glenn Beck’s pap damning both Republicans and Democrats equally, so they blame incumbency and chirp for a clean house.

Even though they are dishonest in broad brushing the Republican Party, the point they raise regarding the need for patriots to make a serious commitment and go all out in the fight to save America from her enemies within is spot on point.

DEMOCRATS RIP-OFF FOOD STAMP PROGRAM TO PAYOFF TEACHER UNIONS

In the midst of the economic downturn when most Americans have had to take less pay and fewer benefits to keep their jobs, teacher unions have adamantly refused to accept reductions in pay and health insurance benefits.

So Brother O and Congressional Democrats conjured up an “edujobs” bailout bill that would take $10 billion from the food stamp program and give it to placate the teachers’ unions. The bill was signed into law by Brother O purportedly to rehire laid-off teachers and prevent teachers from being laid-off before the new school year begins.

“As a result of this vote, we expect to see less crowded classrooms, reinstated bus routes and restored education programs and services”— Dennis Van Roekel, National Education Association President

However, according to the New York Times, the school districts intend to keep the money and not use it to re-hire the laid off teachers.

But now that the federal government has come through with $10 billion, some of the nation’s biggest school districts are balking at using their share of the money to hire teachers right away.—Motoko Rich

And now just five days after the signing, another New York Times story, “Back to School? Bring Your Own Toilet Paper” reports that the nation’s schools are requiring parents and students to send in toilet paper and tissues to stock janitorial closets that have been stripped bare by shrinking school budgets.

Once again, the nation’s school kids are asked to do with less so the teacher unions can do with more.—Kyle Olson

OBAMA HYPED UNFINISHED GULF OIL SPILL REPORT

Brother O released the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s (NOAA’s) report on the Gulf oil spill before the agency had gathered all the data and completed the peer review process.

To boost public relations, the White House released the unfinished report claiming that 75 percent of the oil had been collected, burned, skimmed, or simply disappeared; however, a recent independent study contradicts NOAA’s rosy estimates, finding that 79 percent of the oil still remains in the Gulf beneath the water’s surface.

“It is deeply troubling that White House officials apparently preempted the completion and review of a scientific study on the oil spill by NOAA scientists in order to tout conclusions that many experts believe may be deeply flawed.”—Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.)
