Crazy Dems

N.O.W. supports men who call women whores

Published by Papa Giorgio

Carol Platt Liebau points out the obvious hypocrisy in the modern – progressive – feminist movement.

The day after he (or a member of his staff) is caught on tape calling Meg Whitman a whore, Jerry Brown has announced the endorsement of the National Organization of Women (NOW).

You know, it’s fashionable in feminist circles tosit around  bemoaning the fact that few young women want to identify themselves as feminists.

Wanna know why?  This kind of hypocrisy is the reason why.  It’s OK with NOW, supposedly an organization devoted to the equal and respectful treatment of women for Jerry  Brown to call his opponent — an accomplished woman, and more importantly, any woman — a “whore.”  It’s OK with NOW for Bill Clinton to engage in sexual harassment of an intern in The White House, and possibly worse in his pre-presidential days.  It’s OK with NOW to allow Sarah Palin to be denigrated in the cheapest, lowest and most sexist ways.

NOW has nothing to do with women’s rights, or the proper treatment of women.  They are simply shills for abortion and big government.  They ought to admit it and take the word “Women” out of their name, because they no more stand for “women” in general than President Obama stands for small government and low taxes.

Women — and men — are on to NOW’s racket.  That’s why their endorsement means nothing.  They’re just political hacks.  What young woman in her right mind would want to be associated with such cheap political opportunism?


Alan Colmes~Christians Would Kill if Bible is Burned.

Quote:

If we were to burn the Bible, if we were to actually have a bunch of Muslims or one Muslim somewhere doing a Bible burning, I bet you would have a very similar reaction from Christians who would be equally offended. And who knows what kind of death threats might come to that Muslim?

Muslims cannot even mark their Qur’ans with any pencil, pen, or highlighter. I have seen people put their Bible on the ground and stand on it saying, “this Bible makes promises, and i stand on these promises as my foundation.” This would never be tolerated by a Muslim, and if done to a Qur’an in a Muslim country, expect jail time, beatings, and possibly death. The Qur’an must be placed at the highest point in the Muslim house, my Bibles are on my bottom bookcase shelf for easy access while sitting on my coach. There is an unhealthy attribution given to this book, not to mention the medias mischaracterization of events that ITSELF inflame the Muslim mind. Now, IF a christian would react the same way — equally offended — is Colmes ever equally offended by the actions between a Muslim and a Christian? Hmmmm.

What Do The Poorest Cities Have In Common?

This goes out with a h/t tp DocH (Official Right-Wing Extremist Veteran Seal Of Approval). While I have heard this stat many times before. DocH put it well and got me to find the format I wanted, from a commentator at Sweetness & Light:

City, State, % of People Below the Poverty Level, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, 2006 American Community Survey, released August, 2007 (250K+ population)

TEN POOREST CITIES

City, State, % of People Below the Poverty Level

  2. Buffalo , NY 29..9%
  3. Cincinnati , OH 27.8%
  4. Cleveland , OH 27.0%

U.S. Census Bureau, 2006 American Community Survey, August 2007

What do the top ten cities (over 250,000) with the highest poverty rate all have in common?

Einstein said, ‘The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.’

It is the poor who habitually elect Democrats,

While teacher’s union pensions swell like pirate booty chests, kids have to bring toilet paper to school. Our property tax money used to buy restroom supplies, now it funds go-nothing union teachers.

I was born and raised in Detroit and know first hand the poverty there (and the racism).

No one can pack more conceit-more condescension-into two little paragraphs than Barack Obama can

Our Lecturer in Chief

….Last Friday, he needlessly jumped into a percolating political controversy — again — to enlighten the uneducated masses. This time the subject was the Islamic cultural center proposed to be built two blocks from Ground Zero, where Islamist terrorists murdered more than 2,700 Americans.

“The 9/11 attacks were a deeply traumatic event for our country,” he said, beginning what was to be yet another lecture on what he sees as our failure as a people to live up to our values. “And the pain and the experience of suffering by those who lost loved ones is just unimaginable. So I understand the emotions that this issue engenders. And ground zero is, indeed, hallowed ground.

“But let me be clear. As a citizen, and as president, I believe that Muslims have the same right to practice their religion as everyone else in this country. And that includes the right to build a place of worship and a community center on private property in Lower Manhattan, in accordance with local laws and ordinances. This is America. And our commitment to religious freedom must be unshakable.”

No one can pack more conceit, more condescension, into two little paragraphs than Barack Obama can. In the first paragraph, he establishes that opponents of the Islamic center are reacting purely emotionally. “I understand the emotions that this issue engenders.” In the second, he informs us that, as an enlightened being, he sees this issue properly — it’s about freedom of religion. Appealing to our reverence for the Constitution, he states that “our commitment” (all Americans are bound by creed to agree on this) “must be unshakable.”

These are not the words of a president attempting to lead and unite a nation. They are the words of an academic attempting to instruct a class that he considers particularly thick-headed. And they came unprompted. He didn’t have to address the issue at all. He wanted to. He needed to. His conscience compelled him to….
