How Bad Could It Be To Be A Minority? ~ Larry Elder

In this short clip Larry Elder examines the reasonableness in asking if being a disenfranchised group is really all that bad. I mean Obama said he was from outside the country… Elizabeth Warren and Ward Churchill claimed to be Native American, and Rachel Dolezal claimed to be black? Am I missing something?

As a side-not, Clifford Thies notes Rachel Dolezals disconnect when she criticised Christian Bale for playing Moses:

According to Afro-centric nonsense, white people have been expropriating black culture for centuries. For example, white people claim that Jews and Egyptians are white when everybody knows Jews and Egyptians are black. Among the Afro-centric voices protesting the continuing expropriation of black culture was black-face girl (Rachel Dolezal). 

In an interview back in October 2014, black-face girl said about Christian Bale portraying Moses in the movie “Exodus: Gods and Kings,” “it’s highly offensive to the people that actually were living during that time and also to people today, it’s robbing and shredding their ancestry and history,”…

Was Louis Lane The First #TransRacial? Or Wallie Dodd Ford?

The founder of the Nation of Islam (NOI), Wallie Dodd Ford [he had many names: Wali Farrad, W.D. Fard, Wallace Fard Muhammad, Farrad Muhammad, Master Fard Muhammad] never claimed to be black or of a mixed ethnicity (on his marriage certificate he claimed Spanish heritage… in other words, he was a charlatan). Later, however, leaders in NOI have claimed Walli’s Trans-Racialism for him… contrary to the evidence.

  • In the 1920 United States Census he [Wallie Dodd Ford] reported his race as white, his occupation as a proprietor of a restaurant, and gave his place of birth as New Zealand. He provided no known place of birth for his parents, nor his date of immigration.” (WIKI)

To be clear, though, he was also #Trans-Deistic:

  • God Is a Man. They teach that Allah “came to us from the Holy City of Mecca, Arabia, in 1930. He used the name of Wallace D. Fard.”3 “God is a man and we just cannot make Him other than man, lest we make Him an inferior one; for man’s intelligence has no equal in other than man.”
  • Atonement and Salvation. The Nation of Islam rejects the essential Christian doctrines of atonement and salvation. “We know we have a Savior. In 1877 a Savior was born [i.e., Wallace Fard]….A Savior is born, not to save the Jews but to save the poor Negro….A Savior has come to save you from sin, not because you are by nature a sinner but because you have followed a sinner.”

Rand Paul’s Tax Code Plan (2016 Election Season)

My plan is the biggest and boldest tax cut in American history. This will shake up Washington and Wall Street, no doubt. But I’m not running for their approval, I’m running to take our country back.

I am not a huge fan of the Pauls… but I would overlook a lot of what I see as flaws in Rand if he would push for this. This would be a huge boost to the economy, business, and reform our country needs. Here is his SITE for Pres if you are interested.

The following is from Glenn Beck:

“He has just announced a radical tax plan. I’m telling you, this is erotic, it is so good,” Glenn said.

PAT: I’m in love with it. Even though I’m not a huge —

GLENN: Pat is not a huge Rand Paul fan. I looked at him — he rolled his eyes when I said he has a tax plan you will like. He rolled his eyes. Then I said, you’re thinking about it, aren’t you? And he’s like, oh, I am. Listen to this.

  • RAND: I’m running for president to defeat the Washington machine. And to do that, we have to drive a stake through the heart of the IRS and our terrible tax code. We need to tear it up and start over, with a plan that’s simple, fair, and cuts taxes for every single American. Let’s start with the workers tax cut. For most Americans, the biggest tax they pay is the FICA tax on their paycheck. And all anyone ever tries to do is raise that tax or pretend you’re not paying it. In my tax plan, the first thing we’ll do is eliminate the workers tax. That’s right. It’s gone. Zero. Nothing. That means that every single working American would keep thousands of dollars more in their paycheck —

GLENN: FICA gone.

PAT: Yes! Seriously.

  • RAND: We’re not stopping there. We will end corporate welfare and eliminate the army of lobbyists and tax lawyers gaming the system.

GLENN: I like that.

  • RAND: All special tax breaks will be gone, in exchange for one low flat rate of 14.5 percent that every single business will pay. No more billion-dollar corporations paying zero —

GLENN: But wait. There’s more.

  • RAND: But also, no more mom-and-pop businesses paying 40 percent. Everyone pays the same, and it will grow our economy. In fact, the Tax Foundation studies show my plan will create nearly 2 million jobs. Finally, every American taxpayer, everyone will be able to file a very simple return on one page at a low and fair rate of 14.5 percent — for every single American. And the guy with the most lawyers and accountants doesn’t win; you do. My plan will cut taxes for everyone. It will end corporate welfare and special tax breaks. It will create jobs, and it will get the IRS out of your life.

GLENN: Amen. That is unbelievable. That’s the best thing I’ve ever heard from any candidate on the IRS yet. Phenomenal. Rand Paul.

Blessed be Egypt My People from Charles Kim on Vimeo.

“You’re blessed when your commitment to God provokes persecution. The persecution drives you even deeper into God’s kingdom” (Matthew 5:10). Pray for Egypt, North Africa and other Arab countries. Stories of what God is doing in Egypt and how we are to join in prayer for those who are courageously living out their faith in the middle east.

America’s Most Advanced Monitoring System Shows Cooling Trend

(h/t Gateway Pundit) This comes via The Daily Caller:

Data from America’s most advanced climate monitoring system shows the U.S. has undergone a cooling trend over the last decade, despite recent claims by government scientists that warming has accelerated worldwide during that time.

[….]

The climate stations use three independent measurements of temperature and precipitation to provide “continuity of record and maintenance of well-calibrated and highly accurate observations,” NOAA states on its website. “The stations are placed in pristine environments expected to be free of development for many decades.” In essence, NOAA chose locations so they don’t need to be adjusted for “biases” in the temperature record….
