If Kerry Deserved Prosecution Then, What Does He Deserve Now? by Mychal Massie

Please Support The Daily Rant. Liberals Will Hate You For It. They Apparently Hate Everything American.Donate $1                                                                                                                                                                                               September 14, 2004, I wrote the following syndicated column. It was titled "Kerry Deserves Prosecution, Not Presidency." My reason for reusing it today is to point out what should be obvious and yet that which goes unreported by the mainstream media and that of course includes Fox News.

If John Kerry wasn't fit to be president how is he fit to be Secretary of State? If, as I factually pointed out in 2004, he was an unmitigated liar, why or rather how can we believe a word he is saying about Obama's Iran deal today?

Read the following that I wrote nearly 15 years ago to the day and tell me if you think Kerry has in anyway gained credibility since then.

Let's allow for the sake of argument that Democrat presidential candidate John Kerry is telling the truth about his Vietnam War experience.

Let's also accept for the moment that – as Kerry freely admitted on the "Dick Cavett Show" (June 20, 1971):

[He] did take part in free-fire zones and [he] did take part in harassment interdiction fire. [He] did take part in search and destroy missions in which the houses of non combatants were burned to the ground. And [that] all of these, [he found] out later on ... [were] contrary to the Hague and Geneva Conventions and to the laws of warfare. So in that sense, anybody who took part in those, if you carry out the applications of the Nuremberg principles, is in fact guilty [of war crimes].

Let's allow for the record, all of his aforementioned statement is true. Then it would logically follow, one could argue, Mr. Kerry is unfit to be president – the Senate either for that matter, but that is another subject.

He is unfit because he is a war criminal, who to date has not been brought to trial or even charged.

It would further go without saying that if the opposite is true, and Kerry lied about his participation in these so called "atrocities" (his words not mine), he is equally unfit to be president, perhaps even more so.

Either way Mr. Kerry is "unfit for command" of the United States, because he is either a war criminal or a liar – but he is unfit based upon his own repeated admissions.

But upon closer examination of Kerry's self-confessed atrocities, one can see the clever and insidious Machiavellianism of his confessions.

Free-fire zones, according to a Vietnam veteran I spoke with, were so designated because they were areas in which there were no "friendlys." This veteran told me: "According to reconnaissance, anything you expected to encounter was enemy ... all recon indicated there were only 'hostiles' in these areas."

It was explained to me that normally troops had to seek permission before firing at targets unless fired upon, but in an area populated only by "unfriendlys," to delay while awaiting directions would have been fatal. Hence the designation "free-fire zone."

It should also be pointed out that recon and long-range patrols had done their jobs supplying said intelligence for the protection of the others. In truth, free-fire zones were for saving lives of American soldiers. Kerry should have understood this unless he believed the preserving of enemy lives superseded the safety of American troops.

Kerry claims to have "taken part in harassment interdiction fire." Once again, his parsed dishonesty is apparent for all who would see.

"Harassment interdiction fire" is just that – you are harassing the enemy to buy time until conditions favor your side. I am told it could be for the purpose of keeping the enemy pinned down or contained, but, in any event, it amounted to nothing more than shooting over the heads of the enemy, the alternative being to shoot them.

Search-and-destroy missions have been a necessary part of every war ever fought. Kerry should know this or it is he who is the dumbest presidential candidate of all time. The burning of noncombatants houses is a legitimate way to prevent the giving of aid and comfort to the enemy.

As it was explained to me, if weapons or an overabundance of foods stores were found, it was obvious to our trained personnel that the small village was a comfort and supply station for the enemy. The choices were to destroy it or simply make note of it, allowing it to continue in operation. It should also be pointed out that these were small, tiny areas – they weren't the size of Baltimore.

Kerry's clever parsing is an insult to all who served. He is aware that the supposed crimes he committed were not crimes at all – rather the necessary tools of bringing American boys safely back home.

It is interesting that in testimony before the U.S. Senate's Committee on Foreign Relations, Kerry told how others had:

... raped, cut off ears, taped power wires to genitals and turned on the power, cut of limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks on top of the daily ravages of war; crimes [that were] on a day to day basis with the full awareness of officers at all levels of command.

Yet he did nothing to bring these supposed "Genghis Khan's" to justice. He accused America of the injustice. Ergo, should we apologize to Lt. William Calley for holding him accountable for his atrocities at Mai Lai? If those who Kerry claims to have firsthand knowledge of are going to be given a mention and a pass, why prosecute the alleged offenders at Abu Ghraib?

I submit that if Bill Clinton was deemed unfit to be president because of lying before a grand jury panel, if Pete Rose has been found unfit for the Hall of Fame – his record notwithstanding – for betting on baseball, how can John Kerry be deemed fit for president of the United States? But then, perhaps I answer my own question.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                          http://mychal-massie.com/premium/if-kerry-deserved-prosecution-then-what-does-he-deserve-now/?inf_contact_key=774735e7f9ae76e4a134eb7d22b611f3a717a6e9eb095d3fa9c3ee19229194b0

The Difference Between Democrats and Republicans by Mychal Massie

Please Support The Daily Rant. Liberals Will Hate You For It. They Apparently Hate Everything American.Donate $1                         My friend and I had dinner at a unique (albeit disappointing) BBQ rib "joint" Friday evening. But it was a brief conversation that I had with Christians who believed themselves to be conservatives that I found worse than the meal. They, like so many others, were blind to the reality of the political "game of thrones" ergo they believe themselves sufficiently knowledgeable to understand the political machinations controlling their votes and their opinions.

The obvious difference between the Democrat Party and the Republican Party is that one has an ass for an "avatar" (using the Hindu definition of same), and the other has a pachyderm for a logo born out of an 1874 Harper's Weekly cartoon depicting Republican voters fleeing an ass clothed in a lion's skin. Today, just as in said cartoon, Republican voters are still being frightened away from the truth. Thus we witness two very distinct tactical applications employed to mislead the voters and sustain the personal interests of politicians and their handlers.

Democrats employ a Hegelian Dialectic approach. They either create a problem or seize upon one, then pretend to react, i.e., respond to the problem by instituting a solution that they have already predetermined.

The attack on a personal right such as cigarette smoking is a classic example. John F. Banzhaff III is the murky figure responsible for making lawyers rich and depriving us of our Constitutional right to the pursuit of happiness, and giving Democrat cultural Nazis the power to control our behavior.

Banzhaff's goal as the lead figure of a legal think group was to come up with class action lawsuits that would bring huge fees which would, of course, benefit Democrats since 90 percent of lawyers contribute to Democrats.

And it worked like a charm; exploit and embellish the truth of smoking related diseases and cigarettes ergo the problem. Create a crisis and public outcry based upon a totally manufactured concern and then respond with a predetermined solution, i.e., lawsuits, increased cigarette taxes, and the denial of our right to enjoy life under the guise of government looking out for our safety. All of which was intended to acclimate citizens to the gradual pernicious sublimation of their Constitutional rights.

There is certainly no better example of the Democrats' strategic use of Hegelian Dialectics than obamacare. Democrats since Jimmy Carter have tried to implement a socialized form of healthcare. But it was Obama who used the lies created by Carter and Hillary Clinton to manufacture a problem for which the public supposedly demanded a resolution, which led to Obama and the Supreme Court depriving citizens of their right to self-determination.

Democrats continue to use gun crimes, illegal aliens, so-called women's rights, and a plethora of other manufactured problems that lead to public demands for a solution that they have already predetermined.

Republicans utilize demagoguery and fear tactics that the GOP establishment has used to cement their mobocracy. And to date it has worked like a charm, which makes the pachyderm as a logo most fitting.

Republicans are not our friends any more than Obama, Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, or John Kerry, but until recently they haven't found it necessary to change their tactics to control voters given over to supination.

Republican voters were led to believe that they were involved in the process when in reality they have been led through the nose since the post President Reagan years with the fallacious idea that if we do not vote for a bad Republican, a bad Democrat would win. So-called "conservatives", (an assignation most are clueless pursuant to the true meaning), rewarded the lowest dregs of humanity with election and reelection because of sound bites they've heard on Fox News.

After all, as the reasoning has become engrained in said voting block, they might not be your first choice or even the best, but if the base doesn't vote for them, bad Democrats will win. The conservative base held its nose more times than not and the tactic worked until 2010.

But with the Tea Party and then Herman Cain the Republican establishment knew the days of using fear to elect and reelect the likes of John Boehner, Mitch McConnell, John Cornyn, et al were threatened. Hence, under the leadership of Karl Rove and Reince Priebus they resorted full out ad hominem attacks. They have sought to alienate the Tea Party by using the NAACP to beat the racism drum and by conveniently finding liars and frauds to drive Herman Cain from the 2012 presidential race.

Since that time they have ratcheted up the threats and attacks to unparalleled levels. Rove and McConnell have led a scorched earth policy against all Tea Party candidates. If Michael the Arc Angel or even our Lord Himself ran for office as Tea Party candidates, the Republican establishment would viciously attack them.

The Democrat Party has always represented that which was antithetical to our personal freedoms, the pursuit of happiness, and our Constitutional rights. But since President Reagan the Republican Party has shown itself to not just scorn the will of We the People, but shown themselves committed to the total destruction of any candidate who argues in favor of the will of the people.

The question is: Are We the People prepared to fight that which I argue is the greatest threat to our freedom since the Crown of England? It cannot be done by allowing the establishment to destroy candidates we support and predetermine candidates for us.

That means, unlike the person I spoke with Friday, it is time for so-called conservatives to stop allowing scare tactics to control us.

God’s Good Heart – Sunday Thought For The Day by Mychal Massie

The following was written for August 2, 2015, "Our Daily Bread" by Anne Cetas.
**********************

Roger had been through a lot. He had open-heart surgery to repair a leaky valve. Then, within just a couple of weeks, doctors had to perform the surgery again because of complications. He had just begun to heal with physical therapy when he had a biking accident and broke his collarbone. Added to this, Roger also experienced the heartbreak of losing his mother during this time. He became very discouraged. When a friend asked him if he had seen God at work in any small ways, he confessed that he really didn't feel he had.

I appreciate Roger's honesty. Feelings of discouragement or doubt are part of my life too. In Romans, the apostle Paul says, "We can rejoice . . . when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation" (5:3-4 nlt). But that doesn't mean we always feel the joy. We may just need someone to sit down and listen to us pour out our hearts to them, and to talk with God. Sometimes it takes looking back on the situation before we see how our faith has grown during trials and doubts.

Knowing that God wants to use our difficulties to strengthen our faith can help us to trust His good heart for us.

In what ways has God used trials in your life? Are you learning to trust Him more?

God may lead us into troubled waters to deepen our trust in Him.

INSIGHT:
In the letter to the Romans, Paul discusses what salvation means. Today's passage twice mentions that we are justified, which means to be made right with God. In verse 1 Paul says that this happens by faith, and in verse 9 he writes that the blood of Christ justifies us. The sacrifice of Christ's blood for us is what makes justification possible, and faith is how we receive that justification. Hebrews 9:22 tells us: "Without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness" (niv). J.R. Hudberg

READ:Romans 5:1-11
5 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.

3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;

4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.

8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.      http://mychal-massie.com/premium/gods-good-heart-sunday-thought-for-the-day/

Why No National Outrage Over Murdered Marines? by Mychal Massie

http://mychal-massie.com/premium/why-no-national-outrage-over-murdered-marines/                                                                       The difference between Dylan Roof who murdered nine members of a church in Charleston, SC and Mohammad Youssef Abdulazeez the Muslim who murdered five Marines in Chattanooga, TN is easily explained. Roof was and is certifiably emotionally unstable, i.e., insane; Abdulazeez is certifiably Muslim – doing what Muslims do.
Roof at one point draped himself in a Confederate Flag and made disparaging statements about blacks at some point prior to going on his killing spree. Abdulazeez was raised in a cult religion that has practiced mayhem and murder since Ishmael.

The Confederate Flag did not murder the church members in Charleston, but a Muslim born and raised on a diet of Islamic hatred for all things not Muslim was responsible for murdering five Marines in Chattanooga. Roof was an anomaly whereas Abdulazeez was a continuing reality.

Muslims are factually responsible for murdering more Americans in America, than the number of persons who can legitimately claim they had family members murdered based on a dogma to the Confederate Flag.

Those facts are undeniable, and yet I do not see anyone from politicos to NASCAR to television networks and state governments demanding Muslim mosques be closed. I do not see the same backlash against Muslims who have a history of ransacking American interests and murdering Americans that one whacked out young man who at some point in his life draped himself in a Confederate Flag caused.

Am I the only one who has missed the demands that the remains of Muslims be removed from Military Cemeteries? Or is it that there has been no such outcry even though Muslims have murdered Americans on military bases nationwide notwithstanding the murder of five Marines by Abdulazeez.

Despite Obama's often saying that Muslims are part of American history and that Muslims helped make America the country she is nothing could be further from the truth. If Muslims helped build America it was by default pursuant to their supplying slaves to America.

What universities and colleges have Muslims founded in America? What hospitals, schools, and industries have Muslims founded in America? Terrorism is not an industry, but I digress.

Muslims cannot even boast of building neighborhoods in America, they have simply moved into squalor-ridden depressed neighborhoods and multiplied. They have laid ownership to our laws and courts with an agility typically reserved for the most agile Marxist community groups.

The politically correct wasted no time in successfully demanding the erasing of American history, calling for the elimination of our historical institutions that all Americans (and blacks are Americans) support. Why don't we start boycotting Muslim restaurants and businesses? What will it take for the same Americans who were/are so offended by the Confederate Flag to be even tangentially offended by Muslims murdering Americans on the streets of America?

Supporters of the Confederate Flag are not calling for the death of all Americans, but not only has ISIS taken credit for the Marine murders in Chattanooga, but they have made it clear there would be more. Isn't that enough to call for the closing of Muslim mosques?

Dylan Roof's uncle was upset by his nephew's actions stating, that he would execute his nephew himself if it were permitted by law. Roof's family identified him to the police. Roof's friends lamented that they had not taken his threats to do harm more seriously and that they hadn't taken steps to have authorities intervene on the suspicion of what he might do. His family made no excuses for him.

The sister of Abdulazeez reportedly told a reporter, "There's this misconception that Islam is a violent religion. Muslims are actually peaceful." Should I ask the question on what planet that might be?

As Pamela Geller noted Abdulazeez's family consisted of polygamy, hatred of Jews, and wife beating. (Chattanooga Jihad Murderer's Family: Polygamy, Jew-Hatred, and Wife Beating – Wanted To Take Second Wife 'Because It Was Allowed Under Islamic Law'; 7/18/15)

The Muslim killer's family expressed disbelief, claiming that he was depressed, as if that were an acceptable reason for murdering five Marines. His friends called him "a quiet kid, well liked" and from an "an average Chattanooga family." The difference is that average Chattanooga families do not preach hatred, attend mosques that preach hatred, nor do they murder five Marines.

Muslims have been at war with civilization for millenniums. Their attacks are unprovoked and unwarranted. Violent predatory murders are endemic to Islam. The idea of radical Islam is a creation of George Bush and Karl Rove, there is no such thing. There is only Islam.

Cultural Marxists have created a zeitgeist that blames white Americans for the historical ills of America. These same people, however, conveniently dispel the fact that the Americans they blame are the same Americans who had the good sense and decency to correct said ills.

I am convinced that when our Founding Fathers determined "E Pluribus Unum" they did not have in mind a political correctness that implanted the idea of it being un-American to call those who have sworn to kill our families and destroy our country – our enemies.

Black Appeasers Erasing History of America by Mychal Massie

Where will black bigotry and the political attempt to appease same lead next? Will Nashville censor all references to Elvis Presley singing "I Wish I were In Dixieland?" Will his relationship with Dixie Locke now be removed from the Elvis museum to appease the imbecilic idiocy of those feigning insult over any mention of Dixie?

If state governments moved as quickly to purge the public schools of homosexual perverts and to teach abstinence juxtaposed to abortion, America would be a better place. But instead they are rushing to remove the Confederate flag from General Robert E. Lee and to rename boulevards and avenues bearing his name. Gettysburg Battlefields have been stripped of the Confederate flag. NASCAR has removed all references to the Confederate flag. Historic landmarks are being stripped of the Confederate flag.

I do not under any circumstances view Nathan Bedford Forest as anything short of a bigoted racist, but specific to that is the fact that he is part of our American history and we commit a grave injustice when cultural Marxists strip all mention of him from our history.

It is important though to take note of the history that these Erebusic appeasers aren't removing. They aren't removing references to rabid segregationists like Senators Al Gore, Sr. and Robert Byrd. They aren't removing references to Joseph Kennedy, President Wilson, and the Obamas. They aren't removing the history of Margaret Sanger the patron saint of Planned Parenthood.

America, it is time to stop the contemptible ignorance of appeasing those who should be more ashamed of the silly names they're given at birth than by a Confederate flag. But that's not going to happen unless we make it happen, because politicians view being "craven infidels" as a higher form of whore mongering that will reap benefits at the ballot box.

Cultural Marxists under the damnable heterodoxy of diversity call for color-coded groups to celebrate their cultural past and their history. And no group is called upon to do so more than blacks. But whites are not a color, and the only history that white people have is one of slavery and oppression. Public schools and liberal institutions are telling white children they are inherently bigoted and elitist because of their "white privilege."

Ali Michael, (from the Rachel Dolezal gene pool of is it really possible to be that stupid) claims to have gone through a traumatic period of self-loathing based on her "white privilege." Michael claims: "I definitely experienced this. There was a time in my 20s when everything I learned about history of racism made me hate myself, my whiteness, my ancestors...and my descendants. I remember deciding that I couldn't have biological children because I didn't want to propagate my [white] privilege biologically...I disliked my whiteness, but I disliked the whiteness of other white people more. I felt like the only way to really end racism was to feel guilty for it, and to make other white people feel guilty too." (A Great Plan: Liberals Refusing To Breed So They Don't Biologically Spread White Privilege; Jazz Shaw; HotAir; 6/22/15)

This is what it has come to? Send our white children to public schools and liberal universities where they learn to hate themselves in addition to learning they are latent homosexuals. Send our black children to same and they have they learn they are victims who are supposed to be filled with anger and acrimony.

There was a time in the very recent past that history was being revised and rewritten to portray whites as marauding racists whose skin color gave them privileges the poor "darkies" didn't have.

But thanks to Dylann Roof, the Charleston, North Carolina mass murderer embracing the Confederate flag, cultural Marxists are erasing history. And like the devastating evil of a brush fire their Godless behavior is spreading. If factual history is deliberately erased purely because it doesn't fit the paradigm of cultural Marxists, two things are certain: 1) factual history will be replaced with lies; and 2) the only thing that will remain is lies.

The history of America is not color-coded and I for one will not sit idly by while my fellow Americans are being castigated for that which they are not guilty. The history of America is not based on color, and it darn sure isn't built upon white privilege. The history of America is built upon factual events and persons. And erasing them because a minute percentage of the greater number of fools demand it is the worse form of censorship.

If cities are going to remove the Confederate flag and rename institutions named after Robert E. Lee, then they should also start removing references to du Bois who was a rabid communist and to Marcus Garvey who was a segregationist.

The McCain Conundrum by Roseann Salanitri

The recent war of words between Donald Trump and Senator John McCain have unleashed vitriolic comments and enigmas that are troubling for a number of reasons. On the surface, the five and a half years Senator McCain spent as a POW in Vietnam is one that should earn him much respect – at least for his willingness to serve and his ability to survive. However, his history in the United States Senate presents a bit of a conundrum: how could someone who is believed to be an American patriot – a hero – establish a political record that is filled with questions regarding his alliances and his loyalties to the veterans he identifies with and the country he served with honor? Perhaps it is these peculiarities, along with McCain calling Trump supporters "crazies", that inspired Donald Trump's recent rhetoric.

Logically, it is hard to reconcile the actions of a war hero with the voting record of Senator McCain. It is also hard to dismiss all of the allegations and suspicions of wrong-doing he has endured over the years. If you assume that Senator McCain was once a hero and you compare that assumption to his record and the many allegations against him, you may conclude that something corrupted his morality, as well as his mentality. On this basis, it can be argued that years of compromise and playing-along-to-get-along can corrupt even those who are the epitome of nobleness, which would be the strongest argument for term limits that one could imagine.

If you believe that where there is smoke; there is fire, the smoke engulfing the one-time presidential candidate may be enough to sway your opinion of him. And it may very well be the reason Senator McCain is so willing to "move beyond" the Trump episode. On July 1, 2010, Pulitzer Prize winning journalist, Sydney Schanberg, wrote a detailed and well-researched analysis of Senator McCain's influential position on the Senate Select Committee on POW/MIA affairs, which was formed in response to the pressure from the families of Vietnam veterans. The article was published in the "American Conservative" and entitled McCain and the POW Cover-Up. In it Schanberg documents pages within the report that led him to the conclusion that there were 10 pieces of evidence that men were left behind, in direct contradiction to the general statement issued by the Committee and the position held by Senator McCain.

Schanberg concluded that: "an honest review of the full report, combined with other documentary evidence tells the story of a frustrated and angry president (Nixon) and his national security adviser (Kissinger) furious at being thwarted at the peace table by a small, much less powerful country that refused to bow to Washington's terms."

McCain, on the other hand, always contended that the report of surviving POWs was a concoction by deluded purveyors of a "conspiracy theory." Perhaps McCain's explanation would be more believable if it weren't so frequently used as a tactic by elitists to disqualify those questioning their actions in an effort to pursue the truth.

Additionally, Senator McCain has not escaped the scrutiny of other "conspirators" or truth seekers – as the case may be. On February 4, 2015, Ben Barrack wrote an article in Walid Shabat's entity, Shoebat.com, entitled LEAKED EVIDENCE Shows Senator McCain Involved In Major Islamic Conspiracy to Transform Middle East Into Islamic State. In this article Mr. Barrack reported that when McCain was in Libya with Ambassador Chris Stevens, he told an Al Jazeera reporter that the Libyan rebels (the Muslim Brotherhood) were his heroes. The allegations presented in the article do not stop there. They go on to report that John McCain defended Hillary Clinton's adviser, Huma Abedin, against charges made by Michele Bachman in a letter sent to the Inspector General's Office of the State Department, wherein Bachman raised credible concerns about the Muslim Brotherhood's connection with Abedin. If McCain defines the Muslim Brotherhood as heroes and American citizens as "crazies", then America should not be offended when Donald Trump also weighs in with his definition of what a hero is and is not.

McCain's strange alliance with John Kerry and Hillary Clinton, his betraying confession while a POW, and his voting to reduce the pensions of our military while receiving embarrassingly high benefits as a Senator, as well as his failure to provide medical benefits appropriately for our military when he is in a prime position to do so are all peculiar accusations against a war hero. However disturbing these allegations may be, this week's war between two Titans and its relevancy to the up-and-coming presidential election may be the most disturbing revelation of all.

Of course the front-runner in any coveted campaign – especially one for the presidency of the United States – would be subject to intense scrutiny by the media and those competing for the office. And of course, Donald Trump gave his competitors and the media much to scrutinize. But there may be still more troubling indicators regarding this week's follies other than political opportunists predictably attacking the front-runner.

Goal #15 of the 45 Goals of the Communist Party states: Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States.
I shudder to think that this week's display of mad dogs attacking an isolated victim may be an indicator that Goal #15 may have been realized but it is hard to avoid the fact that Senator McCain is a perfect example of a Republican acting like a Democrat – and God knows there are plenty more like him. While we can explain away the motives of Trump's competitors, the sheer number of instances of Republicans acting like Democrats is troubling. Another good example is the re-election of John Boehner as Speaker of the House. It is a matter of record that 60% of Republican voters contacted their representatives requesting that they not vote for Boehner. In a representative government, as we were designed to be, that 60% should have resulted in a huge loss for the Speaker. It did not. Only 25 out of 246 Republican representatives honored the wishes of their constituents. The rest voted for Boehner, a closet Democrat who has consistently disappointed those embracing their delusion that a two-party system exists in America today . This, along with the Republicans in charge of both houses of congress compliance with America's communist party a/k/a "the Democrats", nurtures the notion that the Republican Party may only exist in principle and not in reality.

Additionally, the media has contributed to the illusion that a two-party system still exists. It parades its choice candidates before us, like Jeb, but much to their chagrin, their parade is being exposed for the illusion it is by the real maverick of the political world: Mr. Donald Trump. And to add to their distress, their old tactics of dismissing the person they fear most through innuendo and ridicule seems to be failing as well. Has the sleeping giant that once was the backbone of our Constitutional Republic finally awakened from its long nap? If it has, perhaps there is more hope for the future of America than any of us anticipated.

Love him or hate him, there can be little doubt that Trump is his own man – and that perhaps is his best qualification for the coveted office. After all, we wanted someone who spoke from the heart abandoning politically-correct speech, well, we got him. So now the question is, do we want him to be president or will we elect someone more palatable?

Trump Reminds Rove of Ross Perot by Mychal Massie

Karl Rove and Reince Priebus, with a complicit Republican Congress are: A) sticking it to voters who actually care; and B) playing payola with blacks.
We've heard for the past number of years that Republican hands were tied because the Democrats held the majority in the Senate. And, as the lie went, as soon as they could wrest control in the Senate away from Democrats, they would change things.

Well they did wrest control away from the Democrats in November 2014 and the first thing they did was fully fund obamacare for Obama, approve hardcore leftist judges, and approve an Attorney General, who is Eric Holder's ideological twin and who mirrors his bigoted racist anti- Americanism. She also came with a track record of demonstrably questionable legal actions that many (myself included) consider outright criminal. Yet after a few weeks of the obligatory pontificating and blustering, Republicans approved her appointment for Obama.

Let me not overlook their helping Obama win amnesty for illegal aliens. And to prove they are consistent, Republicans have virtually rubber-stamped everything Obama wanted including trade bills that even Democrats, unions, and leftwing Marxist groups fought to defeat. (Remember that Obama's initial trade deal proposals were defeated by Democrat legislators voting against it virtually en masse). But thanks to John Boehner in the House and Mitch McConnell in the Senate, Obama got his wish. In brief, whatever Obama wants he can count on the Republican establishment making sure he gets even when his own party votes against him.

The aforementioned notwithstanding, Republicans and their hacks are going after Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump like jackals after raw meat – and they are doing it for one reason and one reason alone. It is because Donald Trump is telling the American people exactly what those who actually care about America already know.

Mexico is no more sending America the best they have than Fidel Castro sent the best Cubans to America in the Mariel Boatlift. Supposedly only 23,000 of the 124,000 illegal alien Cubans were criminals, with the storyline being that said number of criminals was misleading because in the United States, the overwhelming majority of those criminals would never have been charged in the United States to start with. Which I argue means that there are a lot of people not in jail who belong in jail here in America. But I digress.

What the Republican establishment fears more than anything else is another Ross Perot. Rove will die and go to hell early before he allows that to happen. This is why Rove and the party establishment have savagely fought to not just marginalize the Tea Party but to destroy it and every candidate it ran and/or was able to get elected.

The mantra being used against Trump is that he is not good for the Party. They are upset because voters are rallying in support of him. Rove, et al did the same thing to Herman Cain and Sarah Palin. Cain and Palin were both candidates who were connecting with all American voters, not just Republicans. Led by Rove, the Republican establishment engaged in a scorched earth campaign against them, just as they did against the Tea Party itself.

Republicans do not give a rat's tail about the American people. They do not give a rat's tail pursuant what we want. They thumb their noses at us just as Obama does. The difference is we do not expect anything better from Obama.

Republicans are leading an "around the clock" assault against Trump that is reminiscent of the liberal media's reporting on the Middle East War when Bush was in office. They are calumniators of the highest order.

Pursuant to the Republican establishment playing payola with blacks, it goes like this. Republicans give a boatload of money to various blacks who claim they will use the money to bring black votes into the Republican Party. The end result is that blacks do not vote Republican and the blacks who received said money pocket it. It is an approved scam that permits the Republican establishment to make a show of reaching out.

If Rove, et al were interested in blacks voting for Republicans they would be truthful. They would stop blathering about what the Republican Party has historically done for blacks and start legislating in way that was sans a color-coded message and inclusive of an American message.

Blacks are not going to vote for Republicans in any meaningful numbers no matter how much history you throw at them. If that were all it took, blacks would have never stopped voting for Republicans.

Donald Trump is being attacked by the Republican hierarchy for telling truths that are important to the American people. Republicans are lying and misleading blacks by animating the same lies blacks have been told by Democrats for the past 50 years, i.e., blacks are victims and if they vote for them they'll make special dispensations for them.

Blacks do not need special dispensation, they need the truth. Special dispensation is just another way of saying you and I get the shaft.

Obama Idolizes Killers At Planned Parenthood

0
I'm typically ahead of the curve of social issues, and I am very seldom far from the front of the line when it comes to politics as a whole. And while it may appear as though I am patting myself on the back, believe me when I say I derive no pleasure from being right in this instance.

Penny Starr of CNSNews reported that Gary Bauer, president of American Values said on Friday June 20, 2014: "This ought to be the epitaph of [the Obama] administration: In the last five years under this president more babies have been aborted than jobs have been created. Now that is a good summary of this president; few things make Barack Obama more passionate than abortion on demand." (Bauer on Obama's Record: More Babies Aborted Than Jobs Created; 6/20/14)

Based on numbers compiled by the Guttmacher Institute for the year ending 2008, and extrapolated forward to present, approximately 6.6 million babies have been murdered by abortion during Obama's time in the White House. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) seasonally-adjusted employment number, over the same period the number of jobs created by Obama shows an increase of 3.66 million as of May 2014. Also, according to the BLS, the number of non-seasonally-adjusted employment numbers as of January 2014 that Obama has created amounted to 5.96 million jobs.

That is one heck of a record of accomplishment. But it is keeping with Obama's ideology that babies should be murdered if their parents are below a certain income level.

But I warned people what to expect. On February 15, 2012, in my Daily Rant titled "The Obama's Are Murderers," I wrote: Obama is preening and thumping his chest. His sycophants are applauding him and literally chanting his name. His wife is doing the late night television circuit, wallowing on the floor for Ellen Degeneres, pulling ropes, and so on – you know – behaving more like a puerile high school gymnast than like the First Lady of the United States is expected to. She has been seen doing everything but wrestling animals in the White House Rose Garden, and who knows, that may be next. But, that is all window dressing, designed to keep people from thinking about her husband as a murderer. That's right, he's a murderer and he is as much responsible for the murder of innocent children, specifically black children, as the KKK. ... Michelle Obama is not only complicit in her husband's efforts to "fundamentally change America," but she is complicit in his commitment to slaughter unborn children – and at that to specifically target and slaughter the black unborn. ... When I see Obama and his wife I see not only communists, intent on dismantling our country, but I see murderers. How ironic that Michelle Obama, who is shown swilling food and drink, and who treats being First Lady like her personal American Express Black Credit Card (arguably the most prestigious of credit cards) – is supposedly pushing anti-obesity for children, as her husband fights to maintain rigid laws that oppose saving children aborted alive and that allow partial birth abortions.

Penny Starr also noted Bauer revealed that during Obama's 2008 and 2012 campaigns, he "sought to have the phrase changed in the Democrat Party Platform on abortion from Abortions should be safe, legal and rare in 2004 to the Democrat Party strongly and unequivocally supports Roe v. Wade and a woman's right to choose a safe and legal abortion, regardless of ability to pay."

Another trademark of uber-liberal socialists like Lord Obama is complete disregard for human life – especially the lives of the elderly, physically challenged and the unborn. Or in Obama's case, even the "Live-born abortion victims." He claimed his reason for not supporting SB1093, the "Born Alive Infant Protection Act," was the measure didn't include the "life and health of the mother" provision.

A question that begs an answer is where, exactly, does the threat to the mother lie in said infant protection? Interestingly enough, Obama refused to support two bans which did include exceptions for safety of the mother. So his refusal to support anti-partial-birth abortion bills HB382 and SB230 comes as no surprise.

He also refused to support SB1095, which creates a cause of action for harm or neglect that comes to a child "born-alive" after a labor-induced abortion. Add to that his "no" vote on SB1661, also part of the "Abortion Alive Protection Act," which created the "Induced Birth Infant Liability Act." (Darth Democrat; 11/16/04)

Obama may personally hold deep-seated animus toward whites as attested to by those he appointed to key positions in his administration, of which Valerie Jarrett, Van Jones, and Eric Holder, to mention but three, (the fact that Van Jones was so over-the-top that Obama was forced to have Jones resign), but he loves the whites at Planned Parenthood. Going so far as to say that "Planned Parenthood does good work" and invoking God to bless them for their work. Asking God to bless Planned Parenthood for the good work they do is tantamount to having Hitler elevated to the head of the Protestant Church in Germany because he exterminated Jews.

Considering that since 1973, abortion has reduced the black population by over 25 percent and that the number one killer of blacks is abortion, and that the most dangerous place for a black child is in its mother's womb. So, yes, Obama may have deep resentment against whites, but he is all for them murdering black babies. It's black wannabe-thugs killed by someone protecting themselves that he objects to.

Nor does Obama object to the fact that black women are encouraged to reduce themselves to the level of cats and dogs – the difference being instead of having them spayed, they repeatedly have babies ripped and sucked from their uteruses by suction hoses similar to vacuum hoses.

I'm not surprised that there have been more abortions under Obama than jobs created, but that's because I did my homework starting in 2003. And if more people had been listening to me from 2004 forward, we wouldn't be having this conversation today. But when a skin color trumps common sense – the likes of Obama is what we end up with.

Mychal Massie The Daily Rant : Rules for Patriots by Roseann Salanitri

American patriots will frequently lament the loss of liberties that once distinguished this country from oppressive governments throughout history. Some blame the political system, while others blame the education system or the media. Certainly there is enough blame to go around. However, the root of our demise may lie in the melding of several destructive sociologies promoted by Cloward & Piven, Saul Alinsky in his Rules for Radicals, and the 45 Goals of the Communist Party. These strategies preyed upon the irrational discontent of a rebellious generation, which are now occupying our halls of academia and government. While some of their disciples, i.e. Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama, coin terms like the "Vast Right Wing Conspiracy" or the "Great White Conspiracy", these fantasy conspiracies hide the actual conspiracies that they have devoted their lives to promoting – conspiracies intent upon the building of their power bases through the destruction of America.

Although some have a rudimentary knowledge of these strategies, none seem to understand how to combat them. Before attempting to devise a counter-offensive, we would do well to understand their basic principles and what made them so successful. After that we can begin to create rules of our own to dethrone their demagogues and hopefully reverse the damage they have done. Then and only then can we begin to transform our defensive game into an offensive one.

First – understand that this is about power. For Alinsky's followers, creating a power base is a means to an end. While he paints this picture in altruistic terms, his deceptive strategies reveal the true evil nature of his intentions. It is exemplified by his hero and the person he dedicated his book to: none other than the master deceiver, the father of lies, the accuser of the brethren, and first rebel: Lucifer. For those who think logically, it follows that corrupt and deceptive means cannot produce a noble end. In this regard, Alinsky's tactics are similar to that of Islam's – both sanction lies and deceit to achieve their end goal. While Alinsky preaches that the end of capitalism represents freedom, history has shown that varying forms of Marxism/Communism/Taoism/Socialism/Nazism in the last century have led to the deaths of 100,000,000 people – all in the name of ushering in Utopia.

Additionally, the Cloward and Piven model has successfully overwhelmed our economic system to the point of collapse with welfare recipients, and all of the 45 Goals of the Communist Party have been met that called for the corruption our morals through our educational system, instituting free trade agreements, empowering and infiltrating the UN, and creating a one party system that masquerades as a two party system, etc. The combination of all of these destructive models working in harmony has produced a plethora of crisis that methodically ridicule their opponents with charges of racism or worse – just ask Donald Trump or Sarah Palin how difficult it can be to defend against such strategies. As for their affect on the American Patriot Movement, so much has gone wrong in such a short period of time that it is virtually impossible to maintain focus on any one crisis. However, focusing on the restoration of our Constitutional Republic is what we need to do if we are to remain a free and independent people.

All this would not have been possible if the vast majority of patriots today had the skills and knowledge to effectively articulate their point of view. Their inability to give a proper defense for their beliefs have allowed these Luciferian ideologies to permeate all corners of society. Alinsky's radicals and Cloward and Piven's disciples, therefore, have been able to instill a perverse meaning for oppression that persuades the Have-Not's that they are the victims of the Have's – and not the victims of their own inability to take advantage of the opportunities available to them in a capitalistic system.

For this venue, I will keep it as simple as possible and break down my proposed counter-offensive to two basic Rules and Challenges.

RULE #1: This Rule is based on a Biblical directive. It tells us that we are to be ready in season and out of season to give a reason for the hope that is within us. If we apply this principle to our current situation, it translates into being ready to properly explain why we believe socialism doesn't work and why we are committed to capitalism, which can only survive in a liberty-loving environment. Rule #1 leads to Challenge #1.

CHALLENGE #1: Educate yourself on the failed ideas of all the "isms" mentioned above that have resulted in tyrannical power grabs and genocide. While all were based on promises of ushering in heaven on earth, all delivered hell on earth. Historically they have proven to be nothing more than a well-disguised vehicle operated by malevolent tyrants for the purpose of enslaving rather than providing equality. As a consequence, millions upon millions of people were persecuted and exterminated. These crazed tyrants talked a good talk that inspired many but ultimately preyed on the millions who were naive enough to believe their well-crafted rhetoric. Again – educate yourself – educate yourself – educate yourself. You cannot help others understand the pitfalls of the isms if you don't understand them yourself. Again – take our cue from the Bible. We are to be ambassadors for Christ – the author of our liberty. And any good ambassador has a good understanding of whom and what is he or she is representing.

RULE #2: Network. Alinsky understood that there are two sources of power: money and people. The patriot movement may not have the money and consequently the media outlets that those in the Alinsky model have acquired, but it is wealthy with people.

CHALLENGE #2: After meeting challenge #1, we will be well equipped to launch persuasive arguments that support capitalism and liberty. Now we must launch. Preaching to the choir will not change the downward spiral generated by socialist professors, media moguls, and racist opportunists (such as Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and Louis Farrakhan). We must re-educate the masses who have been led to believe that the isms are good things. This may seem like a huge task but it can actually be done with a minimum of effort.

To meet this challenge, consider that we all have publications or blogs that we subscribe to, and social media links that are effective in communicating the truths of what we are facing. You don't have to re-invent the wheel but you do have to keep it rolling. This can be done in two ways: 1. by printing the best of the essays you read and distributing them wherever possible within your community or other places you tend to frequent, including but not limited to restrooms, bulletin boards, and restaurant entry ways; and 2. by distributing them electronically to all of your social media outlets and on your email lists with the request that those whom you are reaching do likewise. We may not have a media outlet that serves as the country's watchdog but the good news is that we can become our own media outlet with very little effort.

This approach may seem overly simple but its affects can be far reaching. Our Founding Fathers created a system of networking they called Christian Committees of Correspondence. Their system enabled them to communicate important information with each other without the benefit of of the advanced communication systems available to us today. Surely with the technology we have available to us now, any excuse for not being able to network is invalid.

If we apply these two simple Rules and meet these Challenges, we can begin the process of transforming America – this time for the glory of God and the preservation of liberty. These Rules and Challenges might not be a comprehensive plan but they can educate our citizens about the truth, which can lead to major changes in the way Americans think – and hence in the way they vote. I believe it's high time we mobilize as best we can and turn this nation around. Under unimaginable odds, our Founding Fathers did not submit to the slavery of tyrants. Their commitment to liberty birthed this nation. Will our commitment preserve it? We must rise to the challenges of our day and overcome the power of would-be tyrants with common sense and committed efforts. To do less, is to do something – chose what is right and do not be deceived by the servants of the great deceiver.
