A word, Mr. Reynolds?

Putz, on the “spontaneous” Philly Town Hall Putsch:

CROWD EXPLODES when Arlen Specter says “do it fast.”


This kind of thing just keeps happening. And it’s happening all over.

Gee, I wonder how THAT could be? emoticon

The rule that disproves the exception…or something like that…

In which Yuval Levin learns not to assume, because it makes an ASS out of U and ME:

All sides in the contemporary debate are trying to find a way to provide health insurance to more people more efficiently and cheaply. They are not divided about any fundamental ethical question. People on the Left are not saying we should provide unlimited medical care to all without thinking about the cost because health care is a right: They’re arguing their approach would cost less and work better for more people. People on the Right are not saying we should forget about the poor because health care is just a privilege: They’re arguing their approach would cost less and work better for more people.

Umm, yeah. About that statement, Mr. Levin…

House Judiciary Chairman John Conyers (a moonbat Democrat) is going to introduce a constitutional amendment that would establish healthcare as a “right” for all Americans.

See what I mean?

He says, “We need a real serious bill and, by the way, the fundamental question, ‘Is health care a constitutional right?’ I mean, do you have a right to health care in the American system of government or not?” He goes on to say, “Well, we believe that people do and we’re introducing a constitutional amendment just to make it real clear so that you don’t have to infer or assume that that’s a given and all that.”

This is par for the course for Conyers. He’s a fool … a big government fool. You, however, probably see through this.

Look … it’s this simple. In order for you to receive health care someone else has to either expend time or property. To claim a “right” to health care is to claim a “right” to someone else’s time .. that is, a right to a portion of their life: whatever portion of their life it takes for them to either render the health service or produce the medical implement or drug that is being used. Hate to break this to you … but who in the hell do you think you are to claim a portion of someone else’s life as YOURS? [bolding mine — Ed.]

Yuval Levin, meet Neal Boortz. Neal Boortz, Yuval Levin. I’m sure you’ll get along just swimmingly.

Earth to “Father” Frank Pavone:

If Americans don’t want the healthcare debate hijacked by abortion, then why the FUCK do YOU keep dragging abortion into it?! Don’t you have some child-fucking priests to protect from legal sanction?

Khamenei warns “Iran’s elite” to back down
Opposition rebuked after top figure calls for a referendum on government

TEHRAN, Iran — Iran’s supreme leader told politicians Monday not to disturb the country’s security in a strong warning to the opposition to back down after one of its top figures called for a referendum on the government.

Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei addressed “Iran’s elite” and warned them to be cautious in the positions they take on the turmoil that has shaken the country since the disputed presidential election on June 12.

He said that hurting Iran’s security was “the biggest vice,” adding that “anybody who drives the society toward insecurity and disorder is a hated person in the view of the Iranian nation, whoever he is.”

Hope you were looking in a mirror when you said that, asswipe.

Mamma Mia!

SHE is shrieeeking again. Why? This:

In a recent debate with principals from two religious schools I was accused of being driven by emotions masquerading as reason. But if we hypothesise for a moment that they are right, then surely the same is true of them. And if that’s the case, who should we listen to?

It is precisely to avoid such conflicts that schools should provide a safe haven from all ideologies, with the obvious codicil that children should learn as much about as many of them as possible from an objective point of view.

[…]

And that’s fine. But does this not make it all the more important for schools to be free of religious influence? Children need to be able to meet and get to know their peers on neutral ground. Religions by their nature always run the risk of creating an “us against them” scenario. However tolerant we believe ourselves to be, there is always a reason people consider their own religion superior to all others.

One of the school system’s most important functions is to create a feeling of community, where all are treated on equal terms regardless of race, class or creed. Society’s way of treating children with the respect they deserve is to combat by all available means any sense of an “us against them” divide.

[…]

Nobody should have to form an opinion on matters of such weight before they are ready to size up the arguments. Above all, children should be kept away from anything that bears even the slightest whiff of indoctrination. In fact, freedom from indoctrination ought to be a basic human right for all children.

You can hear the SHRIEEEEKING all the way from Ottawa…

Indoctrination for me and not for thee. That’s what it amounts to.

[…]

But Humanists are a special breed of people who think more clearly than the rest of us. Since their opinions are the fruit of reason, not faith, their derision and marginalization of religion is enlightening and liberating, not divisive. If only the poor benighted fundamentalists could overcome their indoctrination and their silly fairytale beliefs, they could see the error of their ways and we could all be as one and they could finally stop fomenting that “us against them” mentality. Religion is a plague on society. Humanism unites people under all one creed — that of reason.

There is no sense of superiority in humanism whatsoever.

My, you can see the sarcasm dripping off of that last sentence.

Naturally, I had to respond.

In case it doesn’t make it past HER new reality-distortion field, the full response is below the fold.

Okay Wingnuts, Riddle Me This…

Why is the output of Cindy Sheehan’s vagina so earth-shatteringly newsworthy, but not the whereabouts of Gov. Mark Sanford for the last week?

WELL FEED ME NAILS AND CALL ME RUSTY: Now we know why Gov. Sanford has been acting so squirrelly lately. He’s become yet another statistic on the Republicans Behaving Badly Scoreboard™.

And the slime keeps oozing out…

Convicted Watergate felon G. Gordon “Head Shots” Liddy, wanting in on the “fun” of bashing Judge Sotomayor, escalates the bigoted garbage with this flying turd:

LIDDY: I understand that they found out today that Miss Sotomayor is a member of La Raza, which means in illegal alien, “the race.” And that should not surprise anyone because she’s already on record with a number of racist comments.

That’s right. In a rant about Judge Sotomayor’s alleged racism, Liddy makes a racist remark. Irony is dead.

But wait, it gets better worse!

LIDDY: Let’s hope that the key conferences aren’t when she’s menstruating or something, or just before she’s going to menstruate. That would really be bad. Lord knows what we would get then.

What was it Rodney Caston’s alter ego in Megatokyo once said? Oh yeah:

Must find bathroom. Need to hurl.

Because it’s only “exploiting a crisis for political gain” when Democrats do it, apparently…

Michelle Malkin, 04/25/09:

I’ve blogged for years about the spread of contagious diseases from around the world into the U.S. as a result of uncontrolled immigration. [Never mind that nearly all of the cases of swine flu in the U.S. at this point are the result of kids traveling to Mexico on vacation. — Ed.] We’ve heard for years from reckless open-borders ideologues who continue to insist there’s nothing to worry about. And we’ve heard for years that calling any attention to the dangers of allowing untold numbers of people to pass across our borders and through our other ports of entry without proper medical screening — as required of every legal visitor/immigrant to this country — is RAAAACIST.

9/11 didn’t convince the open-borders zealots to put down their race cards and confront reality.

Maybe the threat of their sons or daughters contracting a deadly virus spread from south of the border to their Manhattan prep schools will.

Michelle Malkin, 04/27/09:

Well, it didn’t take long for partisan Democrats to blame the swine flu outbreak on the Republican Party.

Here’s the line: Since House Republicans all opposed the trillion-dollar-porkulus, which included funding for pandemic preparations, it’s all. Our. Fault.

[…]

So any natural disaster or bio-catastrophe that comes along, for which fiscal conservatives refused to support funding for in an economic recovery package, will now be all. Our. Fault.

And President Obama can once invoke [sic] his time-tested alibi: He inherited the problem.

Someone call the WAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHmbulence!


THERE SEEMS TO BE A … *AHEM* … PANDEMIC OF IRONY DEFICIENCY: Get Don Surber into containment, STAT!

Apparently the Obama administration is not yet ready for prime time. From Politico: “As flu hits, holes in W.H. health team.”

Which explains why the White House is desperately blaming the swine flu on the Republican Congress vote against the $787,000,000,000 “stimulus” package.

[…]

In all, 19 positions and the secretary are empty desks.

Gee, Don, I wonder why that might be?


You were saying, governor?

Rick Perry, After Raising Secession, Calls For Fed Help With Swine Flu

  • No, we don’t need no stinkin’ stimulus money — it’ll just go to help those shiftless bums who weren’t born with a silver spoon in their mouths! In fact, we’ll secede before we ac— HOLY CRAP! SAVE US, MR. PRESIDENT! GET OFF YOUR LAZY DUFF AND SAVE US FROM THE UNEXPECTED PANDEMIC THAT ANYBODY WITH HALF A BRAIN COULD’VE SEEN COMING A MILE AWAY!
