Please share this with your friends. This is an abomination and we should be, as a nation, ashamed of ourselves if we can’t stop this PC mindlessness. From the “Don’t Tear Us Down” website:
Officials at the Houston National Cemetery have banned the VFW Honor Guards from performing the entire VFW burial ritual, which includes prayers and speeches by the Commander and Chaplain, which reference “God,” at military funerals.
If this doesn’t qualify as an outrage, then nothing does. Please go to their website and sign the petition. NOW! Also check out the other videos while you’re there.
This is a delicious follow-up to yesterday’s segment on O’Reilly, where Laura interviewed Florida Congressman Allen West on his thoughts of Cong. Maxine Waters saying Barack is doing the black community a disservice. Apparently Cong. Charlie Rangle watched that exchange and had his own opinion of what West had to say. It started out typically adversarial, but once Rangle started going back to the “blame Bush” and “tea party” talking points, Laura took it up a notch or two…. or twelve.
Loved it! Folks like Rangle and Sharpton hate it when they’re called on being members in good standing in the race pimp industry. Good on you, Laura! Bill would have been too soft on shyster Rangle.
And oh, Mr. Rangle…sexist much? Laura is Bill O’s pretty “secret weapon?” You’re a toad.
Heh… this was a SLAM from someone who cannot be called a raaaaacist, unless, of course, you’re a liberal. Then, I guess, West becomes an “Uncle Tom.” Either way, you can’t deny he’s telling it like it really is.
Too bad the big race pimp industry in America doesn’t get it… and yes, that includes you, Maxine “this liberal will be all about socializing…” Waters, as well as the established Congressional Black Congress.
Watch and enjoy, watch and enjoyers! Greta’s got the scoop here:
DECORAH, Iowa – President Obama got into a heated back and forth with a Tea Party activist who demanded to know at the end of a town hall meeting here whether or not Vice President Biden had called members of the Tea Party “terrorists” during the debt ceiling debate.
In public, Obama did not directly answer the question from Tea Party activist Ryan Rhodes about Biden. But Obama fired back that he knows better than anyone what it’s like to be slammed for his political views and was not about to accept a lecture on the topic.
“As someone who’s been called a socialist, not born here, taking away freedoms for providing health care, I’m all for lowering the rhetoric,” Obama said.
Obama did say he would discuss the matter further with Rhodes, founder of the Iowa Tea Party, after the event. And the duo was spotted in an animated conversation a few moments later.
In an interview later with Fox News, Rhodes claimed that the President insisted that Biden had not made the original comment.
“He just denied it, he said the Vice President didn’t make any of those assertions,” said Rhodes. “He doesn’t want to even admit what was on TV nationally — all over the place — then how can you have a conversation?”
Can you say somebody’s lost his temper? His whining about being called a socialist is more like someone saying “I know you are, but what am I?” What a crybaby. You’re the leader of the free world, you fool. You don’t get the luxury to complain about being called names.
From the RedState conference in South Carolina today, Texas Gov. Rick Perry finally made it official – he’s running for President of the United States in 2012. Here’s his speech in its entirety.
I’m still up in the air about who my candidate is, but I welcome Perry’s entrance into the race.
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.
