Sorry for the time away folks, but I’ve been in the process of switching hosting companies. It’s been a daunting process, so my site has not been viewable for a week or so. There may be more upcoming outages but just hang in there with me while I get all the file transfers and everything else completed.
I’ve been wanting to post my D.C. rally photos and vids, but this transfer knocked that off schedule.
Folks, I’m up WAY too late, but I’m too amped to go to bed even though I should. I’m leaving GA @ 9am to take the North GA 912 Charter Bus to D.C. tomorrow, and will be a tired puppy when I get back early Sunday AM. I will have vids and pictures, but may not post them immediately on Monday. It’s a 10+ hour bus ride, so I’m not sure how productive I’ll be on 9/13.
I know I’ve not posted much from today & yesterday, but I’ve been busy planning this trip, getting things together, packing, etc.
Looking forward to coming back to report from the frontlines in D.C. Also hoping to catch some SEIU or ACORN folks on my video or digital camera.
For those of you who can’t make it, keep the home fires burning and pray for us all as we make our voices heard!
I’m wanting to build a new website for my blog, and I need someone’s help. I’m willing to pay for a site designer, but I want to keep the same color scheme, graphics & logo.
If you’re interested, please email me at MsUnderestimated at gmail dot com.
Please put “Your Website Design” in the subject line so I’ll know it’s not junk mail. I want to work with someone who is of a like-mind as am I, as I’m trying to keep the money in our ‘family.’ I want to use the WordPress platform, but I want to change the design layout using my own graphics and logos. I want someone who will be around in case of emergencies, so that’s why I’m asking for outside input because if my site goes down, I will know I have someone to depend on. This is not a dig on my friends who have been indepensable to me, but they have lives and problems of their own and they’ve been mostly helping me for free.
I’m also going to be changing Hosting companies, as well, and will need assistance with that. Please let me know if you can be of help. Looking forward to working with you!
Glenn Beck today reflected on Van Jones’ resignation over this past weekened, saying he didn’t deserve credit for it, although he received just that all weekend long via Twitter, email and voice mail. Glenn wonders, as do I, why the ONLY thing folks seemingly find a problem with is his participation as a 9/11 “truther.”
A truther? That’s it? That’s all folks are concerned about? There is MUCH more disturbing information about Jones that should be MORE troubling to ALL Americans! Examples include his past self-avowed proclamation as a Communist, his work as a revolutionary for S.T.O.R.M., his respect and admiration of Che & other dictators, his link to the groups who want to free cop-killer Mumia Abu Jamal (also a self-avowed Communist), his links with the California “CopWatch” group, his assertion that “white polluters” were intentionally poisoning people of color, his desires to use the Green movement to get “social justice” for people of color, his disdain for the people of Isreal, his past as a black nationalist, and on and on and on. I could go for much longer, but I think you get my point.
The most troubling aspect of this whole thing to me is this: Even though Van Jones resigned, the White House never said they disagreed with Jones’ politics; only that they were sad to see him go.
Folks, I ask you to watch this video a few times and ask yourself a few questions:
Can you support a president who does not disavow the beliefs of a man like Van Jones?
How many other of the “czars” are there in the Obama Administration that we need to know about?
Stuart Varney sitting in for Neil Cavuto today discussed the newest Czar appointment of Ron Bloom, to be the new Manufacturing Jobs Czar. This is in addition to his current position as the Auto Task Force Czar. Liberal talk radio host, Mike Papantonio, was on to extoll the virtues of big labor and unions, and Stuart was having none of it.
Seriously… how can anyone in this day and age defend Big Labor? And don’t you just LOVE the wealth envy by Papantonio?
And to the Constitutional Watchdogs out there, you know your next homework assignment – get going on it! I’ve already gotten some video, but I’m sure there’s more to be had. Big Labor has NO place in the American capitalist free-market economy, and any administration that pushes it forward as a stalwart ally to the American worker is just out-right lying to you. Stuart Varney gives a first-hand account of his encounter with union bullies.
I hope all Americans, left and right, shun this attempted shift back toward labor unions. They’ve crippled this country long enough. And by the way… how’s that class warfare workin’ out for ya, Papantonio?
Hi… please forgive the appearance of my site. I have a tag somewhere in the code that is wreaking havoc, and until I can find it, my site is all caddywampus on me. Please bear with me as I work to correct it.
Listen…I’m no fan of Obama, and like Mark Levin, I’d vote for a can of orange juice before I’d vote for Obama in 2012. Somewhere along the way, just because our president is black, videos like this are becoming more mainstream and more acceptable on YouTube and other sites, and it should not be.
This is tastleless to the n’th degree, but if it’s okay for black people to do this, how is anything ANY of the Republican candidates do remotely deemed racist at all?
If this country ever truly wants to progress and become a more civilized nation, why is trash like this even tolerated? I’m not asking for this garbage to be censored, but I’d love to see at least SOME condemnation of things like this to be more prevalent. Can we please all agree this is unacceptable in a civilized world? You cannot condemn one group of people for being allegedly “racist” while simultaneously approving of another group of people for creating videos such as this, villifying a single race of people in the process of glorifying the creators of these videos? One need only search certain terms on YouTube to find thousands of videos like this one. And they’re all equally disgusting.
What say you, Eugene Robinson, Goldie Taylor, Donna Brazile, Marc Lamont Hill, etc., etc.? I’m waiting for you all to openly condemn videos like this on YouTube. If you don’t, then I have no reason to listen to your small and petty complaints of racism from Fox News, Republicans as a whole, and GOP candidates in the 2012 primary. Your silence about videos like this are tacit approval of them.
As is said in many places, “hilarity ensues” (h/t Mediaite):
Frances Martel does a fabulous write-up about it, and I couldn’t have said it any better, so here it is direct from the Mediaite post:
“Are you offended?” O’Reilly asked Harpootlian, who replied that he was not, but that he found the fact that Republicans had “no outreach to African Americans” a problem “in a state where we have an African-American Republican Congressman.” “Adding insult to injury, this debate ignoring Martin Luther King’s birthday!” he added, which made O’Reilly ask who was ignoring the debate and why. The Republicans, Harpootlian replied, because “no one has raised any issue with Fox about it being appropriate or inappropriate.”
O’Reilly then asked whether there was a reason for this– namely, something that happened in 2008. Harpootlian did not remember what happened in 2008 (a Democratic primary debate on Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day) and who sponsored it (the Congressional Black Caucus), which prompted several awkward seconds where Harpootlian was obviously caught flat-footed. With this development, O’Reilly then told him that, “by injecting race into this, you do a disservice.” Harpootlian finally replied, blaming Republicans for injecting race into the matter by calling this “the most important election since 1860.” “We in the South have a little different version of that election,” he noted, suggesting that talking to Southerners in such a way was a sort of dog whistle. O’Reilly disagreed and just asked Harpootlian to give it up, adding, “you’re getting killed here!”
Today on Neil Cavuto, radio talk show host and constitutional scholar, Mark Levin was on to discuss his new book, “Ameritopia.”
Levin’s previous book, “Liberty and Tyranny” was a best-seller, as was another book before that titled, “Men in Black.” “Liberty and Tyranny” is a must-read for anybody who wants to know how we got to the point where we are in America today.
I’ve been stewing on this and stewing on this figuring out the right way to convey how I feel about it, and I’ve been struggling with just the right words to describe my sentiment. I read a fabulous screed by Deebow over at BlackFive, but it wasn’t until I saw the headline in a Weekly Standard piece today that quoted Lt. Col. Allen West (R-FL) on this matter. I couldn’t have said it better myself:
‘Shut Your Mouth, War Is Hell’
Yes, you got that right. Congressman West has weighed in on this flap over the Marines taking a piss on dead Taliban terrorists, sending an email to the Weekly Standard, who got his permission to print what he said. Here’s a portion of his commentary:
“All these over-emotional pundits and armchair quarterbacks need to chill. Does anyone remember the two Soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division who were beheaded and gutted in Iraq?
“The Marines were wrong. Give them a maximum punishment under field grade level Article 15 (non-judicial punishment), place a General Officer level letter of reprimand in their personnel file, and have them in full dress uniform stand before their Battalion, each personally apologize to God, Country, and Corps videotaped and conclude by singing the full US Marine Corps Hymn without a teleprompter.
“As for everyone else, unless you have been shot at by the Taliban, shut your mouth, war is hell.”
I’m not even quite sure that what the Marines did was wrong, but since when in the hell did we become so indignant and self-righteously outraged about treating killers like they deserve to be treated? Sure, they probably shouldn’t have videotaped what they did, but who the hell cares? And don’t give me this “don’t stoop to their level” B.S. either. Until you have been in the shoes of our warriors, or our first responders (cops, firefighters, etc.), or, heck, even ever been a crime victim yourself, you have no idea what you would do, given the same circumstances.
