Viewpoints: Racist cartoon of Obama forces me to leave GOP [Full Thread]
Post Date: 2011-06-17 06:28:23 by Ferret Mike
88 Comments
I was one of those rare species: a black Republican, the guy willing to spit into the wind of conventional thought, who was often showcased on camera at party events to prove inclusiveness. But as a proud black man, I can no longer be a member of the Republican Party. Being a Republican has long been a part of my personal and professional identities, so leaving the party is a difficult and emotional decision. In 1998, as a young man searching for what I believed were shared values, I cut ties with the Democratic Party and became a Republican. Democrats, in my view, had become unwelcoming to those holding center-right views not in lockstep with the party, and it was my belief that through ...

While other Republicans are running from the truth, he is sticking to his guns in the face of the anti- science wing of the Republican Party: “It seemed like a straightforward question on a second-tier issue: Would Mitt Romney disavow the science behind global warming?” “The putative Republican presidential front-runner, eager to prove his conservative bona fides, could easily have said what he knew many in his party's base wanted to hear.” “Instead, the former Massachusetts governor stuck to the position he has held for many years -- that he believes the world is getting warmer and that humans are contributing to it.”

Get Rid of Government--But First Make Me President!

Get Rid of Government--But First Make Me President! by Ann Coulter I consider all Republican debates time-fillers until New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie jumps in, but Monday night's debate did crystallize for me why I dislike libertarians. (Except one, who is a friend of mine and not crazy.) They lure you in with talk of small government and then immediately start babbling about drug legalization or gay marriage. "Get the government out of it" is a good and constitutionally correct answer to many questions, but it's not a one-size-fits-all answer to all questions. It was a good answer, for example, when libertarian Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, was asked about government ...

Neocons Trade Medicare for War

Exclusive: The American neocons are again on the upswing as they undercut peace initiatives from the Obama administration and gain Republican support for maintaining massive Pentagon spending, in exchange for limiting senior citizens’ access to Medicare. As Robert Parry reports, the neocons can now see the light at the end of the tunnel for their restoration to power. By Robert Parry June 14, 2011 For decades now, America’s neoconservatives have pushed for higher military spending and baited their political opponents as being “soft” on whatever the enemy-of-the-day was: Moscow, Nicaragua, Cuba in the 1980s; al-Qaeda, Iraq, Iran, Libya in recent years. The neocons ...

Seven Republican Dwarfs

They assumed the stance of the Seven Dwarfs, not as a matter of physical but rather intellectual stature. Not one of the candidates for the GOP presidential nomination who debated Monday night rose to a point of seriousness in addressing the nation's grievous problems. Instead, they ever so playfully thumbed their collective noses at any possible meaningful government reaction to the mess that we are in. It was Herbert Hoover warmed over, leaving Barack Obama secure in the mantle of FDR whether he deserves that tribute or not. Obama, who has been inconsistent and weak in reining in the Wall Street greed that got us into this deep economic morass, is now under no pressure from the ...

Truly Shocking: Feminists Back Anthony Weiner Dana Loesch Jun 13th 2011 at 4:58 am As with Bill Clinton before him, Anthony Weiner has managed to spotlight the ironic discrepancy between what feminists say and the things for which they stand. A NY head of NOW remarked to the New York Daily News that the group is “trying to give him the benefit of the doubt.” The head of the Brooklyn/Queens chapter of the National Organization for Women said she could separate Weiner’s sexcapades from the liberal track record that earned the group’s support. “I wasn’t happy to discover that my congressman is a 14-year-old boy,” said Julie Kirshner, president of the ...

If conservatives were right

If conservatives were right, there would be an easy remedy for our ailing economy. The current conservative approach to fixing our finances relies on a simple theory: rich people and corporations are the ones who create jobs for everyone else. Therefore, in times of high unemployment, the best way to create more employment is to ensure that the wealthy become even wealthier so that they will feel comfortable spending the money on creating jobs. And in turn, that goal can be accomplished through a series of tax cuts aimed at corporations and wealthy individuals, as well as through eliminating regulations that hamper employers in their quest for maximum profit. Conservative economics also ...

Jerusalem - Israel has witnessed and survived through many convulsions in the Arab street. Israel is a natural foe of progress and democracy in the region because it would like to maintain its monopoly on these important political currencies. Israel, the Big Powers, and the true New World Order The Jews and their state, Israel, have always sported a pro-colonial predilection, relying on "Big Powers" (Britain, France, then the United States of America) to sort out the Middle-Eastern quagmire in Israel's favor. This default policy may no longer prove possible. A consensus is now emerging in Europe - including Britain - that the "road map" for peace in the Middle East ...

Targeted killing is legal in a war zone but not on the streets of Anytown, USA, the author writes. | AP Photo Close The sheriff’s office in Pima County, Ariz., raided the home of former Marine and Iraq combat veteran Jose Guerena, shooting 71 rounds at Guerena and hitting him with 22. The department is now facing a serious controversy over Guerena’s death. But the raid isn’t the real tragedy. It’s a symptom of the real tragedy: the militarization of U.S. law enforcement. Pima County released a video of the raid and supporting documents. The video isn’t anything new — a squad of police officers dressed up for combat. But the statement of the SWAT supervisor ...

The pro-Democrat double standard at the LA Times You will recall that in October 2008, the Los Angeles Times suppressed a tape it has in its possession of former PLO spokesman Rashid Khalidi's departure party from Chicago. Among those present at the party were Billy Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn and Barack Hussein Obama. According to an article in the Los Angeles Times, what went on at that dinner would have taught us a lot about the current President of the United States. A special tribute came from Khalidi's friend and frequent dinner companion, the young state Sen. Barack Obama. Speaking to the crowd, Obama reminisced about meals prepared by Khalidi's wife, Mona, and conversations ...

Jim Crow and Racism Destroy Liberal Minds

Jim Crow and Racism Destroy Liberal Minds By now, every Conservative should know how the argument of a Liberal degrades. It goes something like this: A Conservative makes some valid political point seeking a Liberal’s counterpoint. Instead of providing a well-thought out intelligent answer, the first response is usually some irrelevant or made-up statistic. Sometimes it can even be a made-up quotation. After the Conservative provides a sound defense of his position, the Liberal continues to answer unintelligibly. Repeat this process three times (Sometimes it only takes making the original point). Finally, out of desperation, and knowing his position is full of holes, the Liberal ...

Herman Cain's Failure as CEO of Godfather's Pizza

Why does no report confront Cain about his poor management of Godfather's Pizza. Why do they buy the myth that he created that he turned the company around?:::::::: Your browser does not support iframes.</p> Herman Cain bases his campaign on the idea that he was a successful CEO and manager at Godfather's Pizza. No reporter has investigated this claim. Cain has released no earnings statements either during the time he was at Godfather's Pizza or since. If we look at sales figures which are in the public record, sales at Godfather's Pizza, adjusted for inflation dropped over 40% from the year before he took over to his final years. It is hard to imagine that profits ...

The Fraudulent Sharia in American Courts "Study"
Post Date: 2011-06-11 12:55:53 by Brian S

Recently the Center for Security Policy, led by the absolutely deranged Frank Gaffney, put out a "study" called Shariah in American Courts that pinpoints 50 rulings from the courts in 23 states that supposedly prove Gaffney's moronic "creeping Sharia" position. I've finally gotten around to reading that report. Let me make this as clear as I possibly can: This report is not merely badly researched and badly prepared, it is an outright fraud. No one who actually reads the rulings could reach anything but the opposite conclusion from the one they intend to foster. Nearly every single case they offer argues against their conclusion. Now let me prove that assertion. ...

You really do have to wonder whether a few years from now we’ll look back at the first decade of the 21st century — when food prices spiked, energy prices soared, world population surged, tornados plowed through cities, floods and droughts set records, populations were displaced and governments were threatened by the confluence of it all — and ask ourselves: What were we thinking? How did we not panic when the evidence was so obvious that we’d crossed some growth/climate/natural resource/population redlines all at once? “The only answer can be denial,” argues Paul Gilding, the veteran Australian environmentalist-entrepreneur, who described this moment in a new ...

Because Sarah Palin is a "10,"and anyone I've found that below an "8" can't stand her. Women are women first and conservatives and Republicans second, and the women that I talk to are so jealous of her. I don't see them that way with Michele Bachmann, but I don't know that Michele Bachmann has what Sarah ...

GOP Can’t Handle The Truth: Taxes Are Lower Under Obama Than Reagan

President Obama met with House Republicans today at the White House to discuss ways to move forward on negotiations regarding the nation’s debt ceiling and the budget. During the discussion, talk evidently turned to taxes, and when Obama noted that taxes today are lower than they were under President Reagan, the GOP, according to The Hill, “engaged in a lot of ‘eye-rolling’“: Republicans attending a White House meeting on Wednesday didn’t take kindly to President Obama telling them tax rates were higher during the Reagan administration. GOP members engaged in a lot of “eye-rolling,” according to a member who was on hand to hear Obama, who invited ...

Republicans’ Job-Growth Supply-Side Time Warp
Post Date: 2011-06-07 20:10:40 by Brian S

Republicans are trying to change the subject from deficits and entitlements to the economy and jobs. In recent weeks, House Majority Leader Eric Cantor and Senator Rob Portman have each introduced jobs plans. This new focus is in part a reaction to polls saying that the Republican Medicare plan is unpopular and that the weak economy remains voters’ top concern. But it also reflects an old division among Republicans -- and reveals the inadequacy of the party’s recent approach to reviving the economy. The party formed its current economic views in the late 1970s, when an upstart band of journalists, politicians and economists, soon labeled “supply-siders,” overthrew its ...

Oh, no. Among other highlights of her Maybe It’s Just A Vacation Bus Tour, Sarah Palin attempted to retell the story of Paul Revere. It went badly. Admittedly, it always goes badly when anyone tries to retell history, even when sober, since we collectively have the historical and civics knowledge of a group of pigeons who paid limited attention in middle school. But this was almost poetic. So here, with apologies to Henry Wadsworth Longfellow about the scansion, is the Sarah Palin edition of the Midnight Ride of Paul Revere.

Jailhouse Crock By Christopher Orlet on 6.2.11 @ 6:07AM Here's something you don't read everyday: "Putting People in Jail Does Not Lower the Crime Rate." Unless you are a subscriber to The Nation or a visitor to the MSNBC website. Then you probably do read that every day, or something equally counterintuitive. I confess I do visit the MSNBC website most days. Where else am I going to get story ideas and a good laugh at the same time? The other day I clicked on a segment with Tulane Professor Melissa Harris-Perry, a self-styled expert on crime and punishment. I was curious why we were putting ordinary people in jail in hopes of lowering the crime rate. Seemed a tad ...

The danger of indefinite detention

The House Judiciary committee plans on Thursday to move forward a bill to create a system of indefinite detention for immigrants in the United States. The bill would allow the government to detain deportable immigrants who can’t be sent home for as long as they live. Judiciary Committee Chairman Lamar Smith (R-Texas) has described H.R. 1932 as a way to protect “endangered” U.S. citizens from “criminal immigrants.” He did not mention that the bill does away with the constitutional protection against indefinite detention, nor did he mention that the bill very likely violates U.S. obligations under international human rights law. To understand the scope of Chairman ...

Barack Obama and the Betrayal of Black America By Chidike Okeem When Barack Obama was elected as the president of the United States, black liberals dreamily believed that the numerous maladies in the black community would cease to exist. They believed that his election was indicative of a vigorous wind of political and social change that was blowing across the country. Barack Obama himself vowed that his election would demarcate the conclusion of grisly "politics as usual" from the commencement of political and democratic freshness. However, as this administration continues on, it is abundantly clear that Obama has not only failed to deliver in a general sense, but he has also ...

Dumb Question of the Twenty-first Century: Is It Legal?

Is the Libyan war legal? Was Bin Laden’s killing legal? Is it legal for the president of the United States to target an American citizen for assassination? Were those “enhanced interrogation techniques” legal? These are all questions raised in recent weeks. Each seems to call out for debate, for answers. Or does it? Now, you couldn’t call me a legal scholar. I’ve never set foot inside a law school, and in 66 years only made it onto a single jury (dismissed before trial when the civil suit was settled out of court). Still, I feel at least as capable as any constitutional law professor of answering such questions. My answer is this: they are irrelevant. Think of ...

R.I.P. Reaganomics Revolution: 1981-2011: Like The Roaring Twenties, Ending In A Crash

SAN LUIS OBISPO, Calif. (MarketWatch) — The 30-year Reaganomics Revolution will be over soon. Like the Roaring Twenties, ending in the game changing crash. Though more than 80 years apart, they share a common theme song of irrational exuberance: “I’m Forever Blowing Bubbles.” Many bubbles, now merging like tornadoes, in a perfect storm, a megabubble itching to blow, signaling the end of the ego-centered Reaganomics Revolution, which must, unfortunately, also take down America’s markets, economy and monetary system. Yes, folks, that one song captures the collective mind-set of both the Roaring Twenties and the Reaganomics Revolution: “Forever blowing bubbles. ...
