Sure enough, it didn't take long for the moonbats to figure
out how to blame Bush for the Haiti
earthquake. Note their arguments in the Puffington
Host.
It's all Bush's fault because he supposedly engineered the
2004 rebellion that overthrew Haiti's fantastically corrupt Marxist dictator
Jean-Bertrand Aristide, and that Bush had all US aid to Haiti channeled through
private aid organizations and not through bottomlessly corrupt government
officials. They actually claim this.
This was quickly followed by media moonbat Keith
Olbermann of MSNBC arguing that the disaster in Haiti
is why the US
needs ObamaCare. You can trust the Left
to never let a crisis go to political waste.
Here's something to focus on during the Haitian horror: the humanity of Judeo-Christian values. Look down the full
list of countries, companies, and organizations (current as of today 1/15/10) providing aid to Haiti
or an abbreviated summary of the list here.
First,
note that with the exception of miniscule aid from Turkey
(an emergency management expert and a psychologist), not one single Moslem country is providing a dime. It is one of Mohammed's five requirements to
be a Moslem that you contribute to charity - for other Moslems. People who aren't Moslem aren't really people
at all, they are sub-human infidels, kafrs,
not deserving of charity.

THE COMING DEMOCRAT IMPLOSION |
|
|
|
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler
|
|
Thursday, 14 January 2010 |
For all their power-grabbing fascist arrogance, the
Democrats in Washington are
coming to resemble Mack Sennett's bumbling-fumbling Keystone Kops more with
each passing day.
Republicans in Washington
are in a certain kind of awe over the Dems' performance. Walk around the halls of Capitol Hill. You don't need name tags to identify the Pubs
from the Dems. The former are walking
with zest and smiling cheerfully - except when they cast a glance of astonished
puzzlement at the latter shuffling dejectedly along and refusing to look at
their cheerier colleagues in the eye.
How could everything go to hell so quickly? That's the question both are asking
themselves. It is a mystery to
both.
"I guess we really are in a state of shock and awe over what
they have done to themselves," says a buddy of mine who's chief of staff to a
principal GOP Senator. "I just hope we
learn the right lesson from it."
"You think the TeaParty folks are mad at the
Pelosi-Reid-Obama Gang?" he asked me rhetorically. That's just anger in a teapot compared to the
cauldron of hate boiling the Left. One
by one, he listed the Dem constituencies that are in a state of disgusted
rage.

THE DEMOCRAT LEGACY OF SLAVERY, SECESSION, SEGREGATION, AND SOCIALISM |
|
|
|
Written by Allen West
|
|
Wednesday, 13 January 2010 |
The revelation of
Senator Harry Reid's comments referencing "negro talk" is just
indicative of the true sentiment elitist liberals, and indeed the Democrat
party, have toward black Americans.
The history of the
Democrat party is one of slavery, secession, segregation, and now socialism.
One can only
imagine the insanity and media outrage if Reid's quote had come from a
member of the Republican party. If
President Obama had any courage he would demand Reid step down as Senate
Majority Leader, and discontinue any support for his Senate reelection...
notice I said "if". I am quite sure the Soros money which
elevated Obama to the position of President has bought his servitude.
I am running to
represent Florida's 22nd Congressional
District. Why am I running for US
Congress as a Republican? Simple. I would rather
stand proudly and be called "an Uncle Tom and a sellout" than
lose my self-esteem and be considered an inferior by liberals.
I am not just some articulate, clean, well spoken negro.
I am an American warrior, Congressional candidate, and shall never submit to
the collective progressive ideal of inferiority.

RESTORING FAITH AND BALANCE IN MASSACHUSETTS |
|
|
|
Written by Scott Brown
|
|
Friday, 15 January 2010 |
I didn't grow up with all the advantages in life. My mom was on welfare for
a time, but I had the support of a loving family and good friends and
neighbors. I don't have all the advantages in this race either, and that's fine
by me. Being the underdog has taught me to work harder, and to appreciate the
opportunities of our state and our country.
I'm running to represent Massachusetts
in the United States Senate because more of our people are unemployed today
than ever before. Public debt has reached $12 trillion and counting, and Washington
politicians want to borrow trillions more. Terrorists want to strike our
country again, and they will do so if we let down our guard. We have fighting
forces in two theaters of war, and those men and women need our support.
My plan for the economy is simple: an across-the-board tax cut - in the
tradition of John F. Kennedy - for families and businesses that will increase
investment and lead to immediate new job growth. My opponent will
raise taxes.
Amid all our domestic challenges, our nation is still at war with radical
Islamic terrorists determined to destroy our way of life. My opponent would accord such terrorists all the rights our Constitution
grants to citizens. I will treat them as enemy combatants who should face
military justice.

A PERFECT STORM IN MASSACHUSETTS? |
|
|
|
Written by Jack Kelly
|
|
Wednesday, 13 January 2010 |
It is rare in the history of our politics for an
election for an office other than president to have profound consequences for
the future of our nation. But one such election is next Tuesday January
19th, when voters in Massachusetts will select someone to fill the two remaining years of the
U.S. Senate term of the late Sen. Ted Kennedy.
Massachusetts is the bluest state in the nation.
A yellow dog running on the Democrat line ought to be able to defeat any
Republican by at least 20 points. A perfect storm is required to elect a Republican
statewide in Massachusetts. But for this this election -- which is more
important than almost every other Senate race in history -- that perfect storm may have formed.

Why would a for-profit company threaten to pull out of what the investment

There are three reasons, though only two have been recognized:

OUR FUTURE OF HIGHER INFLATION AND SLOWER GROWTH |
|
|
|
Written by Richard Rahn
|
|
Thursday, 14 January 2010 |
Even
though the government is running massive deficits, interest rates and inflation
are low. So, what's the problem? The following discussion will clarify the
problem.
The
United States is now in a situation in which the government is taking a very
large share (40 percent) of the nation's savings to finance its deficit
spending, leaving a diminished pool of capital to meet the needs of both
families and businesses.
You
might be thinking, if there are not enough savings available for investment
needs, why are interest rates so low? The answer is that the Federal Reserve
(Fed) has been creating money by loaning the banks nearly free money and buying
mortgages from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
Soon,
as even the Fed acknowledges, it will have to start selling the mortgages it
owns to private parties and increase short-term interest rates to avoid
saddling the country with high inflation. In sum, inflation cannot be avoided
without a big increase in both long- and short-term interest rates.

THE ANTIDOTE TO ARROGANCE |
|
|
|
Written by Dr. Joel Wade
|
|
Friday, 15 January 2010 |
The Democrats are
engaged in an earth-shaking tragedy, and, like many a Greek tragic figure, they
are going along either 1) blind to their situation, or 2) vaguely aware yet
unable to stop the momentum of the drama.
The Ancient Greeks called this Hubris,
the overconfidence and arrogance which leads, fairly predictably, to a tragic
fall.
Why do we have to suffer such strange and predictable tragedy? What is it
about us that keeps drawing many of us - in large and small ways - down this
tragic road?
We can be thankful that the human propensity toward arrogant overconfidence
may be undermining the Progressive threat to our Republic. But as Jack writes
about in The
Coming Democrat Implosion, the Republicans also fell victim to this very
same trap in the last decade.
If Scott Brown wins the Massachusetts Senate seat on January 19, if there is
a Conservative victory in November, if there is a Conservative victory in 2012,
the same exhilaration that brought supposedly Conservative Republicans to
enable our present very dangerous abuse of government power will replay itself
again and again.
It could be the undoing of our Republic.

THE TRUE HISTORY OF CONSERVATIVES AND LIBERALS |
|
|
|
Written by To The Point News
|
|
Friday, 15 January 2010 |
The division of the human family into its two distinct
branches occurred some 10,000 years ago, when humans coexisted as members of
small bands of nomadic hunter/gatherers.
In the pivotal event of societal evolution, beer was invented. This epochal
innovation was both the foundation of modern civilization and the occasion of
the great bifurcation of humanity into its two distinct subgroups: Liberals and
Conservatives.
Once beer was discovered, it required grain, and that was the beginning of
agriculture. Neither the glass bottle or aluminum can had yet been invented, so
it was necessary to stick pretty close to the brewery. That's how villages were
formed.
Some men spent their days killing animals to barbecue at night while they were
drinking beer. This was the beginning of the conservative movement.
Other men who were weaker and less skilled at hunting, learned how to live off
conservatives by showing up for the BBQs every night and doing women's work
like sewing, fetching and hair dressing. This was the beginning of the liberal
movement.

OK, folks, time to get serious - The Remember the Alamo Rendezvous in San
Antonio is three weeks away. You really really do not want to be square and not be there.
This is your
opportunity to help launch the Defund & Disobey Revolution of 2010. Your
opportunity to revel in fellowship with other members of the TTP family. You owe it to yourself, you owe it to America. I'm counting on seeing you there.

They sure know how to party in Louisiana,
don't they? The party of the year is
shaping up there - a Recall Party! Turns out Louisiana
law allows for a recall election to throw an elected official - including a
federal one (except for judges) - out of office. This most specifically means Democrat Senator
Mary Landrieu.
The effort is being organized by moveonmary.org. They need volunteers, they need money. Mary Landrieu stole the election from Woody
Jenkins back in 1996 and was bribed with "the Louisiana Purchase"
to vote for ZeroCare. She was re-elected
in 2008, which means Louisiana
(and America)
is stuck with her until 2014 - but now there's a chance to throw her out on her
tush this year. We should all pitch in. Let's party!

OBAMALUNACY IN A HISTORICAL CONTEXT |
|
|
|
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler
|
|
Thursday, 07 January 2010 |
First the anti-historical context. Talk to the average teen-ager to learn about
it. A couple of our 17 year-old son's
friends were over at our home the other day, and due to pictures in our home of Ronald Reagan, they asked me
about him.
I related a few tidbits, then
explained that presidents are remembered for one or two famous quotes. Ronald Reagan's was, "Mr.
Gorbachev, tear down this wall." Blank stares.
Wall? What wall? they asked.
These kids are not dumb.
They are nice, polite, and bright. But
what happened in the world before they were born is really, really not in sharp
focus for them.
Maybe, though, we should cut them some slack. They, and all of us, are trying to remain
afloat amidst a deluge of information that none of us can keep up with. It's hard enough to make sense of what
happened last week, so what happened decades or a century ago seems to lose any
relevance.
The problem, of course, is that you cannot understand what
is happening now if you're in a historical vacuum, if there is no knowledgeably
historical perspective with which to make any sense of it.
So - has the world always been as crazy as now? How common or rare are episodes of lunacy
sweeping through America? How does the ObamaLunacy we are currently
enduring compare?

OUR UNCONFIDENT CIVILIZATION |
|
|
|
Written by Dr. Jack Wheeler
|
|
Tuesday, 05 January 2010 |
[Letter to the Wall
Street Journal]
This is in response to "Our
Incompetent Civilization" by Wall Street Journal columnist Bret Stephens.
Mr. Stephens ascribes failures to profile Moslems at airport
security, think rationally about climate change, or eliminate Somali pirates to
"civilizational incompetence." Such
failures are not due to a lack of ability but to a lack of will. It is not civilizational competence that we
lack but civilizational confidence.
On the same day as Mr. Stephens' article (01/04/10), Der Spiegel ran an
editorial bemoaning the lack of Western outrage at recent Moslem attacks on
Danish cartoonists who caricatured Mohammed.
It was entitled, "The
West Is Choked by Fear." But fear of
what?
Whatever that fear is of, it is the cause of our collapse of
civilizational confidence. Please allow
me to identify it. It is the fear of
envy.

IT'S WAR, NOT A CRIME SPREE |
|
|
|
Written by Sarah Palin
|
|
Wednesday, 06 January 2010 |
President Obama's meeting with his top national security
advisers does nothing to change the fact that his fundamental approach to
terrorism is fatally flawed. We are at war with radical Islamic extremists and
treating this threat as a law enforcement issue is dangerous for our nation's
security.
That's what happened in the 1990s and we saw the result on September 11, 2001. This is a war on
terror not an "overseas contingency operation." Acts of terrorism are just
that, not "man caused disasters."
The system did not work. Abdulmutallab was a child of
privilege radicalized and trained by organized jihadists, not an "isolated
extremist" who traveled to a land of "crushing poverty." He is an enemy of the United
States, not just another criminal defendant.

NEITHER THE INTENTION NOR ABILITY TO PROTECT AMERICA |
|
|
|
Written by Jack Kelly
|
|
Friday, 08 January 2010 |
In a March, 2008 interview John Brennan, then the
chief adviser on intelligence matters for Barack Obama's presidential campaign,
said he thought the Bush administration was too concerned about terrorism.
Mr. Brennan's more relaxed attitude toward the
threat of Islamic terror is reflected in the National Intelligence Strategy for
2009,
in which global warming
and pandemic disease (the H1N1 virus) compete with al Qaeda for the attention
and resources of the Intelligence Community.
A shift in focus to natural disasters from
terrorism prevention is part of the reason why the inspector general for
Department of Homeland Security said, in a report issued in November, that DHS'
National Operations Center is "unable" to do its job of ensuring coordination among
the 22 agencies that comprise DHS.
That relaxed attitude evidently also was shared by
President Obama, whose initial reaction to the attempted Christmas terrorism by the Blow Your Balls Off For Allah Bomber was
annoyance that his vacation was interrupted.

INTERPOL IN A TEAPOT |
|
|
|
Written by Brent Moody
|
|
Friday, 08 January 2010 |
[Many TTPers have
expressed concern over the recent (12/17/09) Amending
of Executive Order 12425 granting certain "privileges, exemptions, and immunities" to the International Criminal
Police Organization or Interpol. We are pleased to have TTPer Brent Moody,
former Deputy Assistant Secretary for Enforcement at the Treasury Department
address these concerns.]
Mr. Obama's EO12425 has created considerable paranoia within
the conservative blogosphere. Email
alerts and warnings entitled U.S.
placed under Interpol authority and jurisdiction by Presidential Fiat and
suchlike have become widespread.
I believe the brouhaha over revoking certain exceptions
from exemptions for Interpol and its officials from the International
Organizations Immunities Act (IOIA) - exceptions instituted by President Reagan -
is based upon misperceptions of what Interpol is and by whom it is staffed here
in the US. [See Addendum for texts of both]
