And these people probably vote...

......most likely for Democrats.  This is what the teacher's unions, federal government interference, and a preoccupation with social engineering  have done to our education system.

Very powerful stuff from Bill Whittle on the culture. It's worth the time to watch.

I can hear the sound of hippy heads exploding!

This makes me happy.. even if its not true, just throwing it out there is total awesomeness.  Hey, old hippies, the 60's are over and your hero deserted you before he died!    Maybe you should grow up and get a clue like he did!

John Lennon a Republican?


And of course, Iowahawk offers his take on the matter. Read it, it's hilarious!


Lennon songs with Republican lyrics!

Really, firefighters union, really?

These people show their true colors over and over again.... the unions are about themselves and their own power and damnation to those who disagree.

Firefighters Union refuses 9-11 float over union issue

Stop the unions!

Unions and Communists. One and the same,

Here are just a few examples of articles on the People's World website.

It's union time at America's airports!

Why would the communist party have such an interest in unions?  

Commies endorse Democrats for 2012... whoda thunk it?

From the People's World article "5 Steps to Get Ready for 2012"

"When the broader movement takes part in the battle of ideas, people respond positively. Some of the ideas that already resonate with millions include: tax the rich, racism chains working people of all colors, economic crises hit racially and nationally oppressed people harder, wealth comes from labor and nature, working people have no stake in wars of occupation, and the country is not broke.
The image of socialism as economically just, ecologically sustainable, democratic, peaceful, and part of the American experience can and does resonate as well.
* Finally, a bigger left and Communist Party is necessary for any sustained and far-reaching political advances. It is a fact that progressive and democratic breakthroughs in our nation's history have been bound up with popular uprisings in which a growing left played a critical role. There is no reason to think it will be any different going forward."

Here is a link to another article that discusses why its important for the communists to vote for/work with democrats in achieving their goals.  Scary stuff....

H/T: Weasel Zippers

The Arrogance of Obama knows no bounds....

He spews this crap daily.  Blatant lies, misrepresentations, and delusions about his own greatness.  This man is not stupid, he is evil.  He is not merely inept, he is on a mission to destroy our country and he doesn't even bother to pretend anymore, other than to lie, because the media continues to cover for him.    He is a malignant narcissist, the most arrogant personality type of all.  He talks down to people.  He holds his chin in the air when he speaks.  His tone and body posture reek of self-importance and an air of superiority. I don't understand how people cannot see through this evil man who is a cancer upon our country.  Wake up, people!

Savings are already showing up in school budgets, allowing them to actually IMPROVE direct services to kids, since they are saving so much in teacher benefits.  Wow.

I know everyone is tired of the drama, but we need to stay involved so that the recall efforts fail or we will be right back where we started!

More union ugliness....

Problems have been brewing in South Carolina where the NLRB has interfered with Boeing relocating a plant because it would be unfair to unions.  How the heck can any agency tell a business where they can operate?  Big government combined with big unions are  a match made in hell and they don't care who they hurt.  From  "The State":

CHARLESTON The owner of a Charleston staffing company says in a video released by a congressional committee that a national labor lawsuit over a South Carolina Boeing plant could force his business to close. Dunhill Staffing president Neil Whitman says in the video released Tuesday by the U.S. House Oversight and Government Reform Committee that the National Labor Relations Board’s lawsuit is “an assault” on the way business is done in America. The board sued Boeing in April, saying the aircraft manufacturer illegally chose to build an assembly plant in South Carolina to retaliate against unionized Washington state workers. Whitman testified earlier this month before the committee during a field hearing in North Charleston. Whitman says he doubts his business would survive if Boeing shut down its Charleston operations.

We need more guys like Ron Johnson!

Check this out:  worth the watch.

Wisconsin has been turning out some great conservative politicians lately; Scott Walker, Paul Ryan, Ron Johnson!  We need more guys like these!  Sean Duffy, however, has been a disappointment....

Unions need to be stopped!

I am located in Wisconsin and we've had plenty of unrest over the last few months due to union antics and desperation over loss of political power and money.  They get more and more ugly every day. There are problems all over, not just in Wisconsin.    Bloomberg reports about attempts to unionize workers at a Hyundai plant, only thing is... the workers don't want a union!  Of course, that doesn't stop these people.

Michelle Malkin has a report about public unions ready to strike in the UK.

New Jersey and other states have been battling public sector unions as well. The unions in Wisconsin are not giving up yet either.  They continue to try to agitate workers and recall elected officials. 

And then there's Greece...

Ellen White, one of the founders of the Seventh Day Adventist church, warned against unions over 100 years ago.  Here is some of what she said:

The trade unions will be the cause of the most terrible violence that has ever been seen among human beings.--Letter 99, 1904, p. 3. (To J. E. White and wife, February 23, 1904.) 

The trades unions and confederacies of the world are a snare. Keep out of them, and away from them, brethren. Have nothing to do with them. Because of these unions and confederacies, it will soon be very difficult for our institutions to carry on their work in the cities -- General Conference Bulletin, April 6, 1903. 

The time is fast coming when the controlling power of the labor unions will be very oppressive.  .--Letter 5, 1904.  

Satan will do that which will close the Southern field against the truth, if the Lord does not interpose. And the trade unions will be one of the agencies that will bring upon this earth a time of trouble such as has not been since the world began.--Letter 200, 1903, p. 3.

 "Unionism has revealed what it is by the spirit that it has manifested. It is controlled by the cruel power of Satan. Those who refuse to join the unions formed are made to feel this power. The principles governing the forming of these unions seem innocent, but men have to pledge themselves to serve the interests of these unions, or else they may have to pay the penalty of refusal with their lives."⁵   White, Manuscript Releases (Washington, D.C.: Review and Herald Pub. Assn., 1990), vol. 4, p. 75.

Say what you will about her, she saw what she saw.   As someone who had been made to join a union as a condition of employment, she is right.  I am privy to the emails and letters they send, to the nasty, envious, class warfare THEY are pushing.  Unions are evil.  Thank you Scott Walker!!!

Darwin Award Candidate

What kind of person keeps a 5 foot Black Mamba as a PET??  One of the deadliest snakes in the world and someone thinks its a good idea to keep one in the house.    According to Fox News:

PUTNAM LAKE, N.Y. –  A black mamba, widely considered the world's most poisonous snake, was suspected in the death of a woman who kept 75 snakes as pets at her suburban New York home, authorities said on Thursday.

Paul Ryan vs. Barack Obama

Another AWESOME commentary by Andrew Klavan.  Nothing I can add to this.  Love his style.

More Wisconsin shenanigans

So, today in Wisconsin, 2 protesters decided to attach themselves to posts during the Senate budget debate.  When do these people realize that this is not, in fact, what democracy looks like.  It is what immature, selfish, attention seeking doughheads look like.    It's time to stop the tantrum and let our legislators get on with their business and the rest of the state just move on.

Real Debate Wisconsin has a screenshot of a really nice discussion about causing physical harm to Republican lawmakers.  Again, where is the "new tone" and "civility"  Oh, wait, I forgot that doesn't apply to them, only those that oppose them.  Link here:
