Who Do The Japanese Turn To In Their Hour Of Need
Yet, in their everyday, day to day lives, the Japanese are a very secular oriented people. It might be hard to understand for some people, and some might even consider them hypocritical, only crying out to their God, or Gods, when they have some great, overwhelming need, but otherwise ignoring them.
But are they really? Is it not a sign of maturity that they live their lives in a strict code of honor and adherence to ethical standards without applying a dogma or relinquishing control, and this responsibility, to some benign, or malignant spirit?
What I find interesting about the turn to Buddhism during a tragedy is their need for understanding. Is their hardship caused by some kind of universal karma that has brought this on themselves, perhaps?
The Japanese are not that different from all of us, are they? We tend to thank God, however we conceive him or her, for our good times, and pray to God for relief from the bad times, we ask for forgiveness and sustenance, etc., but otherwise, we too go about our daily mundane lives without giving it that much thought, for the most part. That's because our secular society is such that we too have learned to not lean so heavily on the superstitious need to find a divine cause behind every event. We tend to ignore the divine and the spiritual.
The only thing unique about the Japanese is they go from one religion to another, whichever one suits the occasion, with feeling the need to form a syncretic union of the two. Whereas we tend to stick to one path.
But then again, the Japanese are, at heart, pagans, I believe, so its more natural for them to look to different Gods in regards to different matters. Most Americans look to just one as the answer to everything. Sometimes they don't know what the right question is, but they're still pretty sure about the answer regardless.

Where Is My Nuclear Powered Car?
No, its not the Batmobile, exactly, but it is-a nuclear powered car, called back then, the Nucleon.
It was supposed to have a nuclear reactor in the back, and worked like a nuclear submarine, through a steam engine. That was way back in the day and was quietly shelved with as little fanfare as when it was first proposed. You would guess that would have probably been the end of it, right? I mean, it would be far too impractical, requiring such a heavy layer of shielding it would be way too heavy.
But that was then and this is, well not now, but for a brief time, it was actually considered, again, as a viable means of powering, not a steam engine, but an electric one.
And then Japan happened.
Back to the drawing board folks. We can do this.
The Magic Of Cheese
I don't know what it is, but there's something magical about cheese. Since today was Ostara, I got some Colby, along with some ham and some summer sausage, to enhance my celebration of this mystical first day of spring.
The more I see this clip from The Sopranos, the more I wished I'd went ahead and maybe got some Provolone to dabble on the floor, or to stick in my socks. Funny though, cheese is one of those things that puts me in a better mood, but I guess there are some people that will always be raving lunatics regardless.
Wonder Woman
Here she is-
Not that I blame her. It is a job, and like us all, we need to pay the bills however we can. But it is a waste nonetheless.
Here she is in her past role as Tyra Banks, on the critically acclaimed NBC series Friday Night Lights.
Democrats Will Never Change
Obama's Justice Department is going to be investigating cases of school bullying, and will hold school districts accountable for such incidents. But only if the kid being bullied falls under the guidelines of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which, lo and behold, seems to have included gays.
DOJ’s website states:
The Civil Rights Division and the entire Justice Department are committed to ending bullying and harassment in schools, and the video highlights the Department’s authority to enforce federal laws that protect students from discrimination and harassment at school because of their race, national origin, disability, religion, and sex, including harassment based on nonconformity with gender stereotypes.
The statement later says:
The enforcement of the Equal Protection Clause, Title IV of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 in school districts is a top priority of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division. Additional information is available at the Civil Rights Division’s Educational Opportunities Section website at www.justice.gov/crt/edo/
So there you have it. If you're a white male heterosexual, and not mentally of physically handicapped in any way, you're shit out of luck.
That's because most of you redneck honky fucks daddies don't vote Democrat. Let that be a lesson to you. And if you compalin about the unfairness of this law, that just proves that you too are a sexist, racist, homophobic piece of trash.
The Rape Of A Nation
In Cleveland Texas, twenty-eight black males raped an eleven year old Latino girl. As if that were not bad enough, they videotaped the deed, and then distributed it throughout all of the predominatly black high schools, and middle schools, where it was apparently all the rage. This all lead to the arrest of all twenty eight of these scumbags, who despite the nature of the crime seem to be enjoying a high level of support among the black community.
You know what this is going to lead to, a heightened atmosphere of violence and hate amongst the two communities. There will most certainly be reprisals, and counter-reprisals, and its not going to be pretty.
In a, well not perfect, but a just world, all twenty eight of these animals would be handed over to the girls parents and the Latino community and forced to suffer whatever fate they decided was most appropriate to dish out to them. Hopefully, the reprisals would end there, with the deaths, or worse, of the animals that perpetrated the deed.
But we don't live in a just world, we live in a world where the law and the justice system has been hi-jacked by advocates for the very sub-human beasts that have turned our world into a sewer.
And in the meantime, we are forced to endure the spectacle of the borders of our country thrown open in welcome to millions of dirtballs from every third world country imaginable, with customs and mores that think little to nothing of perpetrating these kinds of deeds on "the other".
And what do our politicians do in response? Far too many of them adopt the position that this is what this country was for, to inspire the downtrodden and, evidently, the miserable scum of the earth, who might hopefully evolve and bcome more civilized. But at the same time, we must respect their culture and their rights as members of some minority.
Because, you know, this country needs to become just a little bit more barbaric, just a little bit more savage, like the rest of the world. Because we need to be more understanding, and tolerant.
Good Doggie
She was arrested, and the children were removed from her care. So was the dog.
We were recently able to interview the dog. In order to protect him, we shall call him Rex. The following interview is verbatim.
PT-So how long had you been having sex with this woman?
REX-RRlrroognmngf Raaowimm
PT-And how did it come about?
REX-RRRWWW-RrrAorrmm
PT-So what kind of sex did you have with her?
REX-Rawwr?
PT-Oh you know, did she suck your dick, jack you off, did you have intercourse? You know.
REX-Raawwwrrrrr Ra rrbooove
PT-So do you like it?
REX-RRROSOWSWOWWW-RAA-ROOOUF-ROOOUF-RAAAOOOOWR
PT-So did you feel like you were being abused?
REX-Raowr?
PT-So do you want to have sex with her again, or with anybody?
REX-RAOWWWRRRRRR
PT-Hey come on now cut that out these are new pants.
REX-RAOOWWRRRR
Fast And Furious-And An Impeachable Offense
While the Middle East is getting to the point where it could erupt in flames at any given moment, and while all eyes are focused on the plight of the Japanese, other things are happening, believe it or not, and they are going on almost under the radar screen, as if by design.
Its recently come out that an operation of the ATF, dubbed "Fast And Furious" has been underway for some time, and is an attempt to flood Mexico with American guns, allow Mexican gangs and gunrunners to pass instant background checks for gun sales, and then just sit back and see where those guns end up going. The idea was supposedly to then bust the criminal cartels in possession of the guns.
It didn't quite work out that way. Instead, the guns ended up disappearing as soon as they crossed the border, and there is very credible evidence that they have been used in crime in Mexico, crimes that have resulted in many deaths, including the deaths of American citizens.
An ATF agent has even alleged that he was ordered to sit back and let the gun sales go through and to not interfere, an order that agitated him in that it was in conflict with his sworn duties as a federal agent.
What gives this story even greater credibility to many who might otherwise disregard it is that it was first reported by Sheryl Atkinson of CBS.
But this was a story that was bound to break wide open, as there were a number of agents who in fact objected strenously to this operation, according to the Center For Public Integrity.
It gets worse. Not only is this a strict violation of our diplomatic relations with the Mexican government, almost tantamount to an act of espionage, if not open war, but there are very credible allegations that this might be part of a broader effort by the Obama Administration to rein in the sales of firearms.At least, that's what several agents have been saying to some people in Congress, Both Chuck Grassley in the Senate, and Darrell Issa in the House, are vowing an investigation into the matter.
It is also worth noting that a measure in the UN also seeks to severely limit and curtail the rights of citizens to own firearms, supposedly on the pretext of fighting terrorism. And our State Department is alleged to be negotiating some kind of concordance with these aims.
It's incredible that a large segment, and at times even a majority, continue to vote for a party whose politicians reluctantly affirm their commitment to the Second Amendment while appointing judges that they know good and well will uphold the most stringent of gun control laws, if challenged in the courts. It should be no surpise to any on either side of the gun debate then that something like this would happen. But we keep putting up with it. After all, there always seems to be "more important things".
It's almost like every morning, half the country gets up, looks in their bathroom mirror, and says "May I live in interesting times".

The Enemy Of My Enemy Can Kiss My Ass Sometimes
Obama has been playing this pretty well. He's been staying in the background, and according to some reports his state department has been working hand in glove with several different international labor organizations, in addition to such groups as Code Pink and other nefarious leftist organizations.
Do you know why that is? Because he knows that if he took a more active, open role, the right would be accusing him of being a pro-Islamic hater of Israel and actively working to assist Islamists in taking over the Middle East. And that might very well be about eighty percent accurate, except for the Islamist part. I honestly think the man is hoping to establish a socialist renaissance, not just in the Middle East, but in the world, eventually.
Of course he can't come out and say that or damn sure not work openly toward that end, so he's got to stay very much in the game, looking concerned, but at the same time, not worried. He knows he will be criticized mercilessly for, for example, taking the time to pick NCAA brackets, but what the hell. He might as well be criticized for something inconsequential, and cool.
But the man behind the curtain at the State Department-that would be Hillary Clinton-is working feverishly on his behalf, meeting with European leaders, and with rebel leaders in Egypt, and Gods know who else.
And what does the stupid right do? Encourage Obama to do something. Encourage Obama to "support the democracy and freedom movement". In other words, they play right into Obama's hands.
Yeah, this is the intervention I was referring to in the previous post. My message to the right-
OBAMA HAS PLAYED YOU LIKE A VIOLIN AND MADE YOU LOOK LIKE FUCKING IDIOTS. CONGRATS, YOU GOT WHAT YOU "WANTED".
Now, if the whole region does go down in flames, and if it does turn into a struggle for control by Islamist radicals-or is eventually controlled by Islamist radicals-its just as much your fault as it is his. You helped this happen.
Meanwhile, as NATO is in the process of establishing a No-Fly Zone over Lybia, attacking Lybian infrastructure and anti-aircraft positions in order to assist the so-called democratic movement, another insurgency is underfoot, in Gaza, from whence fifty-four missiles at last count have been launched into Israeli territory, the most at any one time in a number of years.
The enemy of your enemy is not necessarily your friend, god damn it. Sometimes, the enemy of your enemy might hack your head off with a dull blade if given half a chance. Handing him the means and wherewithal to do so might not be the smartest move you could ever make, even if that first, mutual enemy is someone you utterly despise and wish to destroy. Somebody like Moamar Qaddafi. Or Barak Obama.
We Prefer To Call It A Carefrontation
I'm planning my own intervention, and its not going to be pretty, but such things never are. Its not about drugs, but it might be a nastier habit certain people need to break themselves from. I am not hopeful.
But it got me to thinking about the whole process of interventions. They usually involve either drugs or alcohol, or both. In this scene from Season 4 of The Sopranos, we see how easily the best of intentions can go awry due to the inherently unpredictable nature of such endeavors, and the people involved.
Of course, in this case, the "family" involved in the intervention attempt towards one of their members, happens to be a Mafia family, so you can expect hi-jimks on a even greater order of magnitude.

Obama Cleverly Leading Obamabots In Worship Of Satan
Ha Ha this reminds me of Agent Coopers dream of the Red Room in the old series Twin Peaks.
Two Irish Guys On Saint Paddy's Day
So a man walks into Barney & Son's Ballyroan Bar and asks for a beer.
'Today's me birthday!' he tells Barney's son.
'Begorrah!' says another man at Barney & Son's Ballyroan Bar. 'Today's mine birthday as well!'
'Saints above!' cries the first. 'Two birthdays on the same day. Drinks all around!'
And as Barney's son poured drinks all around, the first man says, 'You know,' he says, 'It were 37 years ago today, I came into the world in Rathdowney.'
'NO!' cried the 2nd man. 'I'm Rathdowney born and raised, meself!'
'Blessed Lady!' cries the first. 'Two Irishmen born and raised in Rathdowney. Drinks all around!'
So the phone rings and Barney asks, 'Son, how goes the bar this fine evening?'
'Doing fine, Pops!' says Barney's son. 'The Ferguson Twins are at again.'

Prison Break's "T-Bag" Returns
Though Prison Break is long over, the old Prison Break production team has a new show on A&E called Brerakout Kings which airs on Sunday Night at 10:00 pm. And it seems as though Robert Knepper's old PB character, Theodore "T-Bag" Bagwell, is still alive and well in the hearts of old Prison Break fans. Or so the new show's producers hope.
When last we saw Bagwell, at the end of the Prison Break series finale, he was returned to Fox River to serve out the entirety of his lifetime sentence, with no hope of parole. After all, this was a man who had committed multiple murders and sex crimes, including the rape and murder of six teenagers-"not necessarily in that order" as one of the "Breakout Kings" characters muses when the team learns their latest assignment-to recapture T-Bag, who broke out of a van transporting him to a medical appointment to get a new artificial hand.
The Breakout Kings is a special task force made up in part of convicted felongs working to reduce their prison sentiences by working to help law enforcement recapture escaped convicts. As we can see in the following clip, they definitely have their work cut out for them with T-Bag.
As hideous a criminal as he is, I have to say he is probably my all-time favorite television series villain. Robert Knepper has the ability all actors crave but which few can master-the ability to chew up the scenery, and more importantly, to make the most heinous, despicably horrible villains human, and even sympathetic.
Knepper once explained this by saying, "there's a kind of innocence in his eyes. There's still a bit of hope there."
I can't wait for this episode. Old memories, good times.
Watch The Moonshine War
The Moonshine War
Video:
Raylan tangles with a ruthless Harlan County crime family while hunting for a fugitive sex offender. Story by Elmore Leonard and Graham Yost; teleplay by Graham Yost; directed by Adam Arkin.
http://vod.fxnetworks.com/watch/justified/785628725001
By the way, there have been six episodes so far, which means next week's episode will put it right at the half-way mark of the 13 episode season. My favorite episode so far is episode 5, "Copperhead". But they are all good.
It's based on a couple of novels and a short-story, "Fire In The Hole", by the great American crime novelist Elmore Leonard. If you have ever read anything by Leonard, you know that nobody does scumbag characters like he does. Most of his novels are set in Florida, but this series is set in Kentucky. Raylan Givens is a US Marshall from Harlan Kentucky who is not above stepping outside the law in order to make things right with the world. The title, Justified, refers to the legal finding in regards to his shooting and killing of a criminal. Once based in Florida, Raylan was reassigned to his Kentucky roots. The first season took place in Lexington, but this season is set primarily in Harlan.
Givens finds himself having to juggle problems with his ex-wife, and his former friend Boyd Crowder (played by Walton Goggins, formerly of The SHIELD), an ex-con who can't quite go straight, for all his good intentions. Meanwhile, Raylan finds himself in the middle of a hornets nest involving a family of hardened criminals involved in drugs and murder, led by the family matriarch Mags.
I'll just end by saying this show is a perfect antidote for those who think American television drama is of an inferior quality.

My Ol' Kentucky Home
If I chose to caption this picture, it would probably be something like-
"THAT FUCKER SAID THAT?!
The woman pictured above is Jessica Talerovich, a young lady of Kentucky who was recently taken into custody by Louisville police when her companion at the time, one Jason Kircher, was arrested and charged with public intoxication and possession of an open container of alcohol in a car. This occurred once officers spotted Kircher's 2005 Toyota weaving in and out of traffic. Kircher failed a field sobriety test administered by the arresting officers, even though his blood alcohol level was in fact below the legal limit.
As it happens, Kircher did have an excuse for his erratic driving. According to him, during the time he was weaving in and out of traffic, Jessica was giving him-a BLOWJOB.
I guess since he did reek of alcohol, the officers decided to weigh everything in the balance, and reached the conclusion the public interest would be better served were he incarcerated for the time being.
And though that is pretty much the end of this little tale of hillbilly happenstance in the city of Louisville Kentucky, there is one thing that seems to be missing. What is it?
Ohhhh, yeah, that would be Mr. Kircher's mug shot.
The Booby Trap
An Israeli model by the name of Orit Fox was performing with a live snake, when it bit her on the breast. She was taken to the hospital and given a tetanus shot, and then discharged. As for the snake-it died.
Back in ancient times, that would have been viewed as some kind of omen. On the other hand, back in ancient times, they didn't have silicone breast implants.
As for people in our modern day, they might want to think about what might happen if these things were to leak and get in the blood stream. Unnecessary bullshit, but if you feel you got to have 'em, what can you say? Just remember they can be dangerous weapons, in the wrong hands.

Tyranny And Oppression-Sometimes, You Just Can't Beat It
Actually, the put out two statement, one in English, the other in Arabic.
The one in English-"Harming children is not part of Hamas policy."
And the one in Arabic?
"a Palestinian mujahid was able to break into the usurper (settlement) of “Itamar” south of Nablus in the occupied (West) Bank, and stabbed five Zionist usurpers."
H/T The Jawa Report
Let me give you some advice. Don't ever come on this blog and try to justify this batch of scum with me, because any attempt to do so will be summarily deleted. I am now officially announcing a no-tolerance policy towards this filth unless of course I decide what you have to say is so obviously over-the-top it can be used to make you and your "cause" look even worse than it already does.
(End of Update)
I've been struggling over this post, because its one of the most distasteful things I've ever dealth with. But I think I have to say something, if for no other reason than it offers a concise explanation as to why I haven't exactly been beating the drum in support of all the various Middle Eastern uprisings-in Tunisia, Egypt, Lybia, and Yemen, also in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, etc.
My true feelings go beyond the mere hope that our sources for Middle Eastern oil remains stable, although admitedly that is a big damn part of it. But there's more, much more, to it than that. Simply put, I don't trust these people, and neither should you.
And to put it bluntly, I'm going to have to have a hell of a lot better reason to support them than that it might make Barak Obama look bad. That to me is so incredibly naive, and cynical, as to be borderline pathological. I refuse to play such stupidly obvious games.
But if you have to have a specific reason why I feel the way I do, here's a few good reasons.
Not only were the two pictured above brutally murdered by Palestinian Arab Muslims, so was their little sister-a four month old infant. Their father was also murdered, along with his wife and the children's mother, the only one whose picture after the murder has not been released by the family. I don't even want to speculate why, though I have my ideas. All I know for a fact was that this Israeli family, the Fogel family, was murdered in cold blood.
The Palestinians of course had their own reactions to the news that this family was murdered inside their own homes by two of their own. They celebrated, passing out sweets in commemoration of the murder of this family of Israeli settlers.
Hamas explains this as natural joy at the deaths of Israeli occuppers. I don't care what their excuses are, nor do I care that, technically, the current protesters in Yemen, Egypt, Lybia, etc., are not at fault. I do know they all support the Palestinians in their "struggle" for "freedom" from the "oppressive yoke of Israeli tyranny".
I also know they are all cut from the same cloth. If they get the "democracy" they claim they want, it will more likely than not turn into one vote for an Islamic government that will institute shariah law and rhen proclaim that as the people are now under the rule of Allah, no further "democracy" is necessary of adviseable.
And if you still need further reason as to why I don't give a shit about them.
Some peoples are cursed with tyranny and oppression. In many cases, they are cursed with the tyranny and oppression they deserve.

The Specter Of A Palestinian State Born In A State Of War
It is understandable that Palestinian supporters are of the hopes that the fledgling new governments of the Middle East will give them greater support, or at the very least not actively or covertly hinder them or the support of their citizens. But they may have overlooked the Palestinians greatest supporter thus far-President Barak Obama.
According to Caroline Glick, there is a diplomatic push recently to pressure Israeli Prime Minsiter Benyamin Netanyahu to grant further concessions to the Palestinians, which like all others would not be reciprocated, nor would any reciprocation be required. And how is the Obama Administration and State Department going about this? Glick claims they have threatened to name an international group to be the main arbiters of the final decision toward recognizing Palestinian statehood. This group includes the US, but also includes Russia, the EU, and the UN.
According to this scenario, the Palestinian state would be granted all of their current demands, which includes, but is not limited to, control over all of Judea and Samaria, as well as all of Northern, Southern, and Eastern Jerusalem. Glick makes the further point that such a declaration and recognition of Palestinian statehood would, by its nature, amount to a state automatically at war with Israel, and that any further counter-terrorist activities by the Israelis on the soil of this newborn Palestinian state would constitute an act of war by definition.
Glick claims that Netanyahu is also facing internal pressure to make these concessions to the Palestinians in order to hopefully forestall such international action, but maintains that such a move would be at best shortsighted, and advises that Netanyahu would be better advised to forthrightly oppose any such move by Obama and the international community, and to do so by appealing for help to the US Congress.
I agree, and would further advise Netanyahu to make it clear that such an action is likely to result in a bloodbath for one side or the other, and that he does not intend to take anything like this lying down. The Israelis have a strong plurality of American public opinion on their side, and probably an outright majority, and Obama knows this very well. Netanyahu would be well advised to appeal to this support while he still has that option. It might not be there forever.

What Hast The Obamassiah Wrought
Those who are opponents of Obama are unlikely to be impressed. For example, at least four of Obama's listed accomplishments are aspects of The Affordable Care Act, colloquially known as Obamacare. The site is obviously geared to reach those who are already Obama supporters, but who might not be aware of the extent of his many so-called "accomplishments".
Ironically, much of the site could easily be utilized by the anti-Obama forces as easily as by his supporters. It also has a link to a more family friendly version, "What the heck has Obama done so far".
I'll say this much. He's done quite enough, as far as I'm concerned. So much, in fact, I think he is very deserving of an early retirement package by the time of, oh I don't, maybe the end of next year.
The Most Evil Man In History
According to Dixonverse,Marvel Comics in the pages of its Ultimate Captain America series has decided the most evil man in history is-Richard Nixon. How did this revelation come about? Well, it seems that Captain America, sometime during World War II, due to some time travel anomaly, meets his nineteen sixties counterpart, who takes the earlier version hostage. The nineteen sixties Cap then regales his past self with what he knows to be the future history of the US, where Kent State demonstrators were murdered-shot in the back, during the Nixon era. Nineteen sixties Cap, you see, is having a hard time coming to grips with what the US has become in his time, and evidently he thinks that by telling all this now to his past self-which is of course himself-then he, meaning he in the nineteen sixties, will be better prepared, psychologically and emotionally, to deal with the gut-wrenching disappointment over how his beloved America has gotten away from its core values of freedom, justice, and fairness.
So what, you say? It's only a comic book, right?
Well, let's remember just what character we're talking about. Captain America originated just prior to the entry of the US into World War II. Even then, before our entry into the war, Cap's main foes were Nazi spies and saboteurs. In fact, the cover artwork of the very first issue of Captain America featured Cap punching none other than-Adolf Hitler, at that time considered by many the most evil man in world history.
In later years, that would be a sentiment shared by the majority of folks in not just America, but the world, as Cap himself entered World War II along with the US, fighting such notable Nazi foes as the Red Skull.
After the war ended, Cap's popularity waned, and so after a couple of futile attempts to revamp the character for the post war era (once during the Korean War, where he also fought a now communist Red Skull), the character was dropped.
Once superhero comics became popular once more, Marvel successfully revived Captain America, ignoring for the time being the post war adventures and saying he had been frozen in an ice glacier after a battle with the evil Baron Zemo, during which his teen sidekick Bucky was killed (many years later he too was revived as the Winter Soldier).
After his revival, and his successful reintegration in the silver age of Marvel Comics, he joined and eventually became the leader of the Avengers, while also carrying his own title, during which he continued his battles with the Red Skull, who also had fallen for a period into suspended animation, and who upon his revival wanted to take up where he left off in bringing about the Nazi dream of world domination.
To Captain America, the Nazis represented the most vile evil the world had ever conceived or produced.
Now, he is in the pages of Ultimate Captain America, learning through his future self that the evil of Hitler paled beside that of Richard Milhous Nixon, 37th President of the United States, and of course a Republican.
This is the most insidious attempt at leftist indoctrination of childtren I have ever heard of, I do believe, and I've known of some doozies. I hate to say it, but I think parents would be well advised from here on out not only to monitor what their kids are taught in school, but to censor what they watch and read in their spare leisure time as well.
Marvel and DC have both always had a leftist slant to the material, but this is just so over the top, it makes you wonder if the left hasn't gone completely over the edge into sheer raging, rabid insanity.
I wonder what's next on the list. George W. Bush as the new Green Goblin? Glenn Beck taking over the mantle of the new Red Skull? Or maybe a zombie Ronald Reagan clawing his way out of the grave driven by the urge to eat the brains of the innocent?
It's almost too depressing to make light of, but what are you gonna do?

Brokeback Government
Granted, you could fund a thousand of these things every year, ten thousand even, and it would still amount to a minuscule portion of the federal budget. The total money would not even amount to ten percent of one percent. But the point is, this is a signpost of government involvement in all areas of our life. It has become an obtrusive part of the national culture, and it, like so much else, needs to end. If things like this can't survive without infusion of taxpayer funds from the federal government, then the harsh truth is, they have no intrinsic value that would validate their continued existence.
Go to a fucking rodeo if you want to appreciate cowboy culture. End of Update.
In a year of trillion dollar deficits, and more down the line as far as the eye can see, and an accumulated National Debt of fourteen trillion dollars and growing, what does Senate Majority Leader Democrat Harry Reid insist the government should keep funding?
The Cowbody Poetry Festival
Because, you know, nobody would come to see this thing if all it had to depend on for the funding were the area businesses that benefit from the tourism.

Leftist Indoctrination Of-The Girl Scouts
Here is a page from a pamphlet put out by Planned Parenthood, and distributed at a special UN forum to-wait for it-The Girl Scouts.
According to this pamphlet, which was presented to representatives from the Scouts at a "No Adults Allowed" forum, it is the right of anyone with HIV to decide when, if ever, to reveal whether or not they are infected with HIV, including to their own sexual partners. After all, if you tell your partner, there's a pretty good chance he or she might, well, end the relationship. And everybody, including the Girl Scouts, whether or not they have HIV, has a right to a healthy, fulfilling sex life. If your parents don't like it, tough on them. Just use protection and if you get pregnant, find another adult who can help you procure an abortion, in the event your backwards thinking parents don't want you to have one.In the meantime, there are many more ways than the traditional one of gaining sexual fulfillment. There is oral sex, for example.
This should come as no surprise to anyone. The Girl Scouts have, as an organization, become a hotbed of radical feminism and leftist political indoctrination for now going on thirty years, if not well before then.
Unlike the Boy Scouts, who mean what they say when they say "be prepared", the Girl Scouts have long held their doors open to all manner of leftist influences, and its easy to see why. It has been a tradition for some time now that the First Lady is automatically a Girl Scout leader.
That means Michelle Obama is a special Girl Scout Troop leader, just like Hillary Clinton was when she was First Lady.
And before you laugh that off, ask yourself, just why is it such a matter of controversy to the left that they just can't seem to get a foothold into the Boy Scouts of America? If you are tempted to think the Girl Scouts isn't such a big deal, then why is the Boy Scouts as an organization so important to the Left?
And now this, the UN and Planned Parenthood, working in collussion to influence more young people, this time through the auspices of the Girl Scouts.
And in the meantime, Barak Obama has promised to veto any funding bill that deprives Planned Parenthood of federal funds, despite the fact that we are, as of now, operating on upwards of a trillion dollar deficit, with similar deficits projected far into the future. Just another example of how Obama, and the Democrats in general, are a wholly owned subsidiary of what amounts to an incorporated American Left.
Just remember if you buy Girl Scout Cookies, you should wonder who you are really helping, and what.

The Red Skull
Entertainment Weekly has a new photo up of Hugo Weaving as The Red Skull in the up-coming movie Captain America-The First Avenger. Here it is-
Pretty impressive. I'm always disappointed in the superhero movies I;ve seen, but I have to admit from what little I know about this one, it looks good. On the other hand, I said the same thing about The Dark Knight and Iron Man, and in both cases I was greatly underwhelmed (notwithstanding Heath Ledger's brilliant portrayal of The Joker in The Dark Knight).The Red Skull is the penultimate Marvel bad guy. Where Stever Rogers was transformed by the super soldier serum into a representative of all that was great about America, Johann Schmidt was transformed into the living symbol of Nazi Germany.
In other words, evil incarnate. Sort of like a Democrat, but more stylish.
Obama And Americans Must Embrace Islam And Shariah-Or Else!
You just can't make this stuff up, you can only wish somebody else had.
The British radical Muslim cleric Anjem Choudary said on Sunday that U.S. President Barack Obama must embrace Islam as a way of life or face the consequences of a trial under the Shariah Islamic court system.
Choudary, who spoke with investigative reporter Aaron Klein during his radio program on New York’s WABC Radio, claimed during the interview that Obama is waging a war against Islam.
So this peace of shit is going to demonstrate in front of the White House today, and call for Obama, and for all of us, to convert to Islam and adhere to Shariah Law-or else!
Bear in mind, we aren't talking about just any old lunatic with some axe to grin. We are talking about the man who is responsible for the following video, courtesy of Hillbuzz-
Not everyone is down with this nonsense. At least one US Congressman, Myrick, wants to ban him from the US, but evidently that's not going to happen. Why not? We have people listed on terrorist watch lists who aren't allowed to enter the country. Why should this guy be allowed to come here and spread his filth?
It might not be a total loss, though. Thnakfully, Pastor Terry "Burn The Koran" Jones from Gainesville Florida is also planning to be on hand to lead a counter-protest, and hopefully provide some much-needed comic relief.
Muslim Brotherhood To The Western Left-Your Services Are No Longer Needed Or Desired!
I have no idea why more people aren't talking about this, but the world would do well to heed the warning of Israeli journalist Caroline Glick.

The Union Label
In the video below, a group of union thugs outside the Madison Wisconsin statehouse chase GOP legislator Glenn Grothman until they have him trapped. If it had not been for the intervention of Brett Hulsey, a Democrat, who knows what would have happened? Grothman may have been seriously injured, or possibly even killed. This crowd was obviously out for blood, but Hulsey, to his credit, and at obvious risk to himself, eventually got the crowd under control, possibly only because he was wearing a clearly identifiable orange union t-shirt.
Michelle Malkin has as good a rundown of events, complete with screen shots of some of the union protesters, as you will find anywhere, but I have to question her identification of Hulsey as a "Democratic State Senator". Aren't they supposed to be in hiding in Illinois someplace? I'm guessing Hulsey is probably a fellow state representative of Grothman, who he tells the crowd is his friend.
Whatever the case, I think its time now to put to rest the lie that Democrats and their supporters are all about having positive discussions based on civility and respect, though it is good to know that there are a few Democrats here and there that try to live up to the bullshit. Unfortunately, there are also those such as Rep. Gordon Hintz who shouted "You're dead" at colleague Michelle Litjens, a Republican representative. I'm afraid that when push comes to shove, they are the majority. But numbers, while important, don't tell the whole story. All it takes is a relative handful, or worse, a large minority, to do serious damage to life and limb, to say nothing of property.
Sooner or later, I'm afraid its going to get really ugly, and if somebody injures of kills one or more of these union thugs in self-defense, I think its a pretty safe bet who will get the blame in the mainstream media. If they injure somebody, on the other hand, you might not hear that much about it, if anything. Mark my words, its coming. Its almost like fate in the current atmosphere, and if not in Madison, then in Columbus, or Indianapolis, or Cleveland.

Sheen versus Qaddafi-Who Said What?
Sheen versus Qaddafi
Teddy, That Liberal Lion
Something strange happened in 1961 that has just come to light involving late Massachusetts Democratic Senator Edward Moore Kennedy, something that has created a lot of buzz over the last few days, yet also something that seems to be in keeping with Kennedy's character, such as it was. On a trip to Latin America in that year, he rented a brothel, for an entire night, and also tried to meet with various regional leftists. His explanation for this latter action, or perhaps a better word might be excuse, was that it was his intention to "find out how these people think".
There is as of yet no discernible reason given for his renting of the brothel, aside from the obvious, so let's assume that just speaks for itself.
I find it telling that Kennedy's associations with Latin leftists seems to have made such a mark on him, to the point that he seems to have come around to their way of thinking. The most oft-cited incident during this period revolves around the Chilean Embassy, where officials refused to take part in any such meetings or to invite any of the Chilean leftists of note.
It's also worth pointing out that the most important leftist politician during this time in Chile was Salvadore Allende, who in twelve years would go on to lose his life as a result of a coup, allegedly forumulated by the CIA under President Richard Nixon.
But during 1961, he was not yet the Chilean President, but the most important opposition leader against Chile's then very conservative government.
It also bears mentioning that 1961 was the year that Kennedy's brother, President John F. Kennedy, had first initiated what would eventually prove to be one of his biggest long-term failures, the so-called Alliance For Progress, which might be best described as an intiatiative for instituting reforms in Latin American countries meant to benefit the working class and poor. In return for instituting these reforms, Kennedy's new organization promised a total of twenty billion dollars in low interest, in some cases zero interest loans.
The program pleased almost no one. To the leftists, it didn't go nearly far enough. To those on the right, it went way too far. And Chile, as I mentioned, had at the time a conservative government, and their supporters were in staunch opposition to the new policy, which was really meant as a way of stemming the tide of communist encroachment while guaranteeing American access to vital raw materials. In the case of Chile, for example, the main concern would be access to the vast natural resources of the desert north, especially copper.
But the main reason the program ultimately failed was that it accomplished nothing of lasting value for the people of Latin America, or for infrastructure and business development, that was commensurate with the loan obligations entailed by the program. Some might feel Kennedy was there in an attempt to gain support for the program, but it seems unlikely that his brother would have entrusted him with such a mission. I personally believe Ted Kennedy was playing James Bond, but that's just my opinion. This was before he gained his Senate seat, which happened in 1962. At this time, he was an Assistant District Attorney for Norfolk County, an obvious political appointment.
He would go on to a long career in the Senate, and notably had many close encounters in the realm of international subterfuge and betrayal involving contacts with the Soviet hierarchy, in the seventies and eighties. One notable case involved his collussion with the Soviets against the military and foreign policies of President Reagan. He offered to help their cause and to work against Reagan to their benefit. He also had a long association with the Irish Republican Army, his support for the terrorist Irish organization being indisputable.
And there are other instances that calls into question not only his loyalty, but his overall character, to such a degree that one has to assume that his degree of power and influence in the US Senate would make him a prime target for extortion and blackmail.
Indeed, all of this has only come to light due to an ultimately successful drive for release of classified documents in possession of the FBI through the Freedom of Information Act on behalf of anti-corruption watchdogs Judicial Watch. Much of the material was redacted, and a further suit succeeded in having much of this material released as well. But presumable, not all of it. And it was kept secret for fifty years, up until now. Given then Director Hoover's well known hatred of the Kennedy brothers, was he planning on releasing this to interested parties at a pivotal moment during the 1964 elections, had President Kennedy lived to run for re-election?
One has to wonder exactly when Kennedy became such a hard-core leftist and communist sympathizer. Was this the beginning stage, or did it come about well before this time?
It would really be interesting to interview some of the prostitutes from this night in question. Some of them might well still be alive, though they would be in their seventies, and eighties. For that matter, some might well be in their sixties. or fifties.
And, seeing as how this is Ted Kennedy we're talking about, one or two of them might well still be in their teens, or twenties. Unfortunately, if this is the case, they wouldn't have a lot to say.

Natalie Portman-Star Whores
Natalie Portman is probably a very liberal woman, although I say that with the caveat that I don't really know that much about her. I remember her more as a child star who in one film became the companion of a crime syndicate hit man. I don't even remember the name of the film, though I remember I was impressed by the then barely teen actresses acting chops.
The only other thing I know about her is, she's a vegan, which tells me she is more than likely very liberal, which means she would basically fit in with the Hollywood hoi-poloi quite nicely.
But then, in accepting her Oscar for her role in last year's film The Black Swan, she made a very serious boo-boo.
This assertion of the importance of her up-and-coming role as a new mother prompted this acerbic, rabid response in the pages of Salon.
Early on in her speech, before the part about her becoming a mother (while thanking the guy who kindly provided this golden opportunity), she thanked her parents for, to paraphrase her, giving her life and being good parents to her.
So there you have it, sensitive Hollywood types, and other leftists/liberals, being forced to endure the spectacle of a successful actress declaring her intention to be a good mother and further asserting that it would be the most important role of her life. As if that were not bad enough, she seemed to give some credence to the idea that a married couple-a man and a woman-might do a good job at something that is generally seen as the legitimate purview of government social services-raising a child. She even implied that she learned a good many things and that her relationship with her parents was positive. Oh, the horrors.
Seriously, liberals have a right to expect better than this from one of their own. And speaking of ingrates, Natalie Portman portrayed a lesbian in the film, yet did not give so much as a shout-out in acknowledgment of sympathy and support for LGBT issues. No, not so much as a word. See, that's the kind of thing that makes leftist fucktards chew their nails and rip their hair out. What an appaling lack of sensitivity on her part. Here you have a case where long lines of leftists line up for miles on end to bask in the glow of a young woman ballet dancer experiencing sexual release with a member of her own sex, and what does Natalie Portman do when she is rewarded for her efforts with an Oscar? She thanks her parents and brags about being pregnant with her own child.
Fret not, leftards, I'm sure things will move full circle. Maybe next year you'll be treated to an awards ceremony featuring Lady Gaga performing a work of performance art-incucing an on-stage miscarriage. Then you'll have a chance to write glowing colums of praise about how artistic and edgy she is, while Natalie Portman will be carrying her second child while taking orders at a greasy spoon diner, hiding a black eye, courtesy of the fists of her beast of an opposite sex mate, and secretly dreaming of what might have been.

Living Legends-Living Lies
Early Sunday Morning of the 27th of February, 2011, Frank Buckles died at the age of 110. His life mirrored the US military history of the twentieth century. He lied his way into World War I by claiming to be eighteen when he was a mere 16 1/2. But having done so, he comported himself admirably. His life path led to his eventual capture, as a civilian, by the Japanese in World War II, in the Phillipines, where he spent three years as a POW, close to the amount of actual time the US was in World War II.
He spent his later years advocating for a World War I Memorial at the Washington Mall, but never lived to see this dream accomplished. It should be, for him and all of the other brave soldiers who fought, and the many who died, in the belief that they were saving the world for democracy from the wrath of "the Hun".
In truth, we did save Europe, but in doing so, we set the stage for World War II, which never would have occured had we not entered the war and enabled the French and English to enforce the Treaty of Versailles. If not for that, Germany and Britain, as well as France, and the entire European continent, would have been wholly decimated beyond immediate or even long-term repair, for at least three decades or more. There would have been casualties as massive, if not more, than the eventual result of World War II. Or perhaps Britain may have asked for terms, if possible, in order to salvage what would have been left, if anything, of their beleaguered Empire, which was already during its last stages anyway.
In the long run, democracy, real democracy, might have risen from the ashes of the old de facto feudal industrial states, while Fascism and National Socialism may never have arose. Communism would have proven unable to answer to the direst needs of a ravaged European poplace, and it too might have withered on the vine.
We could have stepped in at some point and really delivered Europe from the ravages which would have been the results of their own leader's arrogance and insanity. An entire century which followed would have looked entirely different.
Unfortunately, there were two viruses that infested Europe in 1918 in the aftermath of the War To End All Wars. One of them was Vlad Lenin and the Bolsheviks.
The second came cloaked in a flag of red, white, and blue,.
Zenga Zenga Song
From Joshua Pundit comes this video satire of Moammar Qaddafi, which was wildly popular with Arabs. That is, it was up until they found out it was actually made by an Israeli Jew. In answer to a further complaint, he obliged them by creating a second version without the girl. Because, you know, what could be more horrible than to have to look at a nearly nude beautiful blonde dancing girl?

North Korea, South Korea-Here We Go Again
Apparently, someone in South Korea has decided it would be a good idea to drop leaflets over North Korea encouraging the citizens of North Korea to rebel against the communist regime, in imitation of the rebellions that have been on-going in the Middle East. For their part, the North is threatening a military response, calling the South's actions "dangerous". They are also threatening, naturally, to attack the US. Evidently, there is going to be a new round of joint military exercises of the South Korean and US military, and the North has threatened also to increase its stockpile of nuclear weapons.
If this is true, and not just another Alex Jones conspiracy theory/rant, not much is likely to come of it one way or another. For one thing, what the South is forgetting is that the protests in the Middle East is inspired as much by anti-US and anti-Israeli sentiment as it is a rebellion against the Middle East dictators, such as Mubarrek. Granted, the actions against Gaddafi in Lybia may well be taken at face value, seeing as how he is not now nor has he ever been a friend of the US or Israel.
However, the Libyans are without a doubt being influenced by the same factors as are currently inflaming situations in the Middle East-influences such as Al-Jazeera, various arms of international labor, and even elements within the US State Department, to name a few.
Oh, and by the way, one of the major influences in the Middle East is-the international Socialists movement.
So once you remove the radical Islamists, labor unions, cabals within the US State Department, and student democracy movements from the mix, you have a situation pretty much like you have in North Korea, where nobody has any influence, except of course for one of the applicable groups in question-the communists.
So I think its farily safe to say this isn't going to go much of anywhere. What are the communists going to do in North Korea, encourage their people to rebel against their own rule?

Two And A Half Men Minus Charlie Sheen Equals-Two Men
If the hit TV series remains on the air past this season, Two Men should in fact be what the producers of 21/2 Men change the name of the show to once Charlie Sheen departs, which now seems likely in the face of his latest rant on The Alex Jones Show. He called Thomas Jefferson a pussy, and asserted that Alcoholics Anonymous is a "bootleg cult", but he saved the worst of his ire for show producer Chuck Lorre, who he calls a clown and a turd. He also asserted that Lore's real name is Chaim Levine, evidently a way of casting aspersions on Lorre's integrity by way of his Jewish (read, Zionist) roots.
Sheen, himself a long-time proponent of the "Truther" conspiracy theories regarding 9/11-the government was behind it, possibly also the Israelis-has had a long association with conspiracy theory monger Jones, and he left nothing out in this latest rant, even going so far as to call President Barak Obama "a coward in a cheap suit".
This is due to Obama's refusal to engage Sheen in regards to all of the so-called evidence calling into question the official 9/11 story. I can tell him the answer to that one. It's not that Obama doesn't believe in it. Doubtless he doesn't, but that damn sure wouldn't stop him if it was a politically popular position. Unfortunately, its not, because its pretty well established that people that do believe in Trutherism are fruit cakes, like, well, Charlie Sheen.
Production of the CBS hit show has now been cancelled for the remainder of the season. My response is, its about time. I always wondered how Sheen could be so popular playing such an unabashedly misogynistic, sexist character as he does on this show, and I've always wondered why CBS would promote it for so long. The show, and Sheen, should be an embarassment to them, and to all liberals, but lo and behold, it remains one of the most popular shows on television, and Sheen is undeniably the star who at about a million dollars per episode brings the undoubtedly liberal audience back for more misogynistic and sexist laughs, week after week.
Maybe part of Sheen's problem is he has a problem processing the unadulterated hypocrisy of his audience, and himself. If so, no wonder he is driven to lash out at everybody in sight. Including, again, himself, with the alcohol, the whores, etc. Well, the gracy train may soon be over. If so, it can't happen soon enough, but I'm sure he'll find somebody else to blame for his downfall. The Koch Brothers, maybe.
Listen if you dare.

The Book Of Kanye
And then it came to pass that the searching hordes, hungry and thirsty for words of wisdom and knowledge, made their desperate way to the land of Twitter. Finding Kanye, they gathered around him. Seeing them, and discerning their need for guidance, he looked to them and he said-
an abortion can cost a ballin' nigga up to 50gs maybe a 100. Gold diggin' bitches be getting pregnant on purpose. #STRAPUP my niggas!
Kanye's disciples said, "Yeah we feel ya dog!"
And there was unrest and discontent throughout the land.

Won't Back Down
If you ever go to a townhall hosted by Republican Florida Congressman Allen West, a word to the wise. Don't confront him while holding a Koran, because not only will West not back down, he might give you a history lesson you might not want to hear. That is what happened anyway to Nezar Hamze. Who is he, you ask? Why, he's only the executive director of CAIR.

Back From Limbo
Anyway, I'm back, but I'm taking nothing for granted anymore. There are going to be Pagan Temple blogs eventually all over the blogosphere, on every free blogging platform in existence, but they are all going to be the same. Same name, same exact posts. And really, it won't take up one second more of my time. How is this possible, you ask? Well, I've discovered a blog platform called Posterous, which you should check out. When you post to Posterous, you also post simultaneously to any other blog you set up on your Posterous account.
In other words, most if not all future posts you read on this blog (or any other of my blogs you might happen across) will have been sent here by way of Posterous.
As for why my blog disappeared, that's just the problem. I can guess, but I don't know. I was gone for awhile, removed, and then just as suddenly, I'm back. Who knows when or if it will happen again? Who cares, besides me. The point being, since I've discovered Posterous, I feel more secure. It's not likely every single blog I start will be taken down, is it?

Kick Some Asses, Walker
Here's some of the highlights of Wisconsion Governor Scott Walker's Budget Repair Bill-
(1) Collective bargaining rights, except for salary, will be eliminated for 175,000 public employees;
(2) Any salary increase greater than inflation will have to be approved by a referendum;
(3) University of Wisconsin system employees will be denied the right to collectively bargain at all;
(4) Union dues will now be optional for state workers.
In other words, just to simplify, Wisconsin state employees are not beleaguered Egyptians being denied access to economic opportunity or any kind of hope, and despite all the crazy rhetoric, Scott Walker is not Hosni Mubarak. He's not even Hosni Lite. Granted, I wouldn't be surprised at this juncture if Iranian warships didn't end up in the Great Lakes, no doubt preparing to dock in Chicago, but Walker is simply an elected official who recognizes his state is broke. Guess what? He's going to do something about it.
And if the Green Bay Packers don't like it, well, that's just tough fucking shit, ain't it now?
Will Walker call out the National Guard in the face of threatened continued strikes? He says he will only if necessary, which it might well be. God I hope he doesn't back down. While he's at it, he should declare the fourteen Senate Democrats wanted fugitives and send somebody to track them down. I'd love to see those fuckers physically dragged into the state Senate just so they could watch in agony and frustration when the Senate Republicans vote for the bill. The next thing they should have to sit and watch is many of their House Democrat colleagues getting gerrymandered out of existence. Now that would call for some gourmet Reddenbacher.

Chicago Blows
In a way, that might be a sign that things haven't yet gotten so bad in the Windy City, compared to places like California and New Jersey. But they're definitely on the way, with more than a billion dollars of unfunded pension liabilities. I guess things have to completely fall apart before people get the message and demand change. And even then, there will be more than a few taking to the streets to demand the status quo.
But for now, Chicago is still living in that old New Deal style American dream world where you just do things because its the right thing to do, dammit, and everything will eventually work out because, you know, its the economics of prosperity where you give the citizens what they want, because a happy citizenry is a productive one.
Of course, eventually the bill comes due, and then-and only then-the citizenry takes to the streets, and then the parties realize they have to retool their political apparatus to accommodate the outrage, only nothing really changes. The Democrats blame the rich and demand higher taxes, while the Republicans blame the entitlements and demand spending cuts. Or, if they are in a really blue area, like Chicago, they just demand marginal spending cuts and well, a slightly lower increase in taxes. That seems to be the case with Gery Chico, and the Tea Party isn't going along.
Most of the time, the people go along with the Republicans in these cases, until they start to feel the pinch, then they vote for the Democrats. Its hard to fault the Republicans in Chicago for wanting to cut their losses at the polls, and its impossible to blame the Tea Party for not wanting to play the game. The only people you can really blame, in the long term, is the people. Well, and maybe Andrew Jackson. Let's face it, most people are pretty fucking simple minded at best, and downright stupid at worse, so when you give the masses the right to vote, and give the political parties the power to control the electoral process, you can expect nothing if not skulduggery.

So These Two Muslims Are In This Juice Bar
One says to the other: “Fayaz, have you ever noticed that after having sex with a Western infidel woman, your eyes burn and your nose gets scratchy, and you get all teary-eyed?”
Rafiq: “Yes, I notice that too, all the time, why? What do you think that is?”
Fayaz: “I think it must be the pepper spray.”
Lara Logan probably wouldn't appreciate the whimsy of that little joke I lifted from the comments page of Debbie Schluessels blog, but what the hell.
I don't agree with Schluessel in the sense that Logan deserved it or asked for it, and I certainly take no sadistic pleasure that it happened to her, but on the other hand, it does reinforce what I've always known. These people are fucking animals. Bottom line. They also threatened Katie Couric, and beat up Anderson Cooper of CNN. But the rape of Logan, who might have been killed but for the intervention of some Arab women and some Egyptian soldiers, was the penultimate outbreak of hatred and rage yet against a western journalist. Logan is now in a hospital recovering and for now wants privacy, understandably so.
Here is a picture of Logan
And here is a picture of Logan immediately following her rape-
Oh, I'm sorry, this was not Logan, it was a Muslim woman who was purposely mutilated after she ran away from her family when they tried to force her into a marriage. This is an act that is sanctioned by Islamic law and you can probably count the number of times such crimes against women and girls have been prosecuted by even secular authorities on the fingers of one hand. The perpetrators are never looked down upon by their societies unless it is for having a wayward daughter for whom such punishment is deemed appropriate.
I could go on and on with such examples, some from right here in America, such as the case of the man who murdered his own daughter for being too westernized, or the cable television network owner who beheaded his wife after she sued him for divorce-again, here in America, like the Somalian man who murdered his wife and children in Louisville Kentucky once she also filed for divorce because he was a brutal ass hat.
And now a western journalist, a woman, has come face to face with a brutal example of Islamic tradition. And the worse part of it for the rest of us is, her employers, CBS, and the American political establishment-Republican as well as Democrat-will try to portray this as just an example of a fringe element of Islamic society, by no means representative of a majority, or even of a large minority.
And in a sense, they might be right. But the most important part will never be addressed, but will be avoided-the fact the it is representative of the misogyny which is an inherent and integral part of an Islamic culture which at worse, outright encourages acts such as this, and at best, turns a blind eye to them.
They have to turn a blind eye, though. They, especially the women, have been browbeaten from birth into acquiescence. It's like Stockholm Syndrome. But we should know better than to swallow the line of shit we've been spoon fed for decades, including by Republicans, that Islam is a religion of peace. We've had chance after chance, been given warning on top of warning. It's time now to eschew the political correctness and say howdy to reality.
Otherwise, the cultural and societal rape that our descendants will one day endure will be ongoing and permanent. And no one is going to step in to put a stop to it.
