"Racism is the normal explanation for the decline of the black family, but that analysis does not hold up."

9/30/2014

Race in America is set against the backdrop of horrible historic realities, minefields few want to cross -- just ask Representative Paul Ryan. But if we are ever to focus on children who, for no fault of their own, are often raised in environments where a stable father is missing, violence is predictable, education is eschewed, drugs are prevalent and dependency threatens freedom; we must stand up and speak facts before another generation of children are lost.

Racism is the normal explanation for the decline of the black family, but that analysis does not hold up. Thomas Sowell has shown that “the black family survived centuries of slavery and generations of Jim Crow where most black children grew up in homes with two parents.” In fact, “when blacks were just one generation out of slavery, the census data of that era showed that slightly higher percentage of black adults had married than had white adults.” One would be hard pressed to believe that race issues in America are bigger today they were in the past.

CA water-restricted residents not bowing down to their water-rationing-overlords...

9/30/2014

As officials crack down on homeowners who waste water, more drought-conscious Californians are using social media to broadcast video of what appear to be government agencies breaking their own water-use rules: sprinklers running at city parks in the middle of the day, public workers hosing grass until it becomes a muddy mess. They are also filing an increasing number of complaints about wasteful water use by their neighbors and on city property.

"Whether it's a violation or not is kind of a technicality. The point is they were very clearly wasting water," Chapman said of the leaking DWP sprinkler. "If they're trying to hold citizens responsible financially for wasting water on their homes, then certainly I hope somebody is being held responsible at the DWP for wasting water like that."

222 trillion dollar unfunded elephant in the room...

9/30/2014

-In 1945, there were 42 workers for every retiree receiving Social Security benefits. Today, that number has fallen to 2.5 workers, and if you eliminate all government workers, that leaves only 1.6 private sector workers for every retiree receiving Social Security benefits.

-Right now, there are approximately 63 million Americans collecting Social Security benefits. By 2035, that number is projected to soar to an astounding 91 million.

-Overall, the Social Security system is facing a 134 trillion dollar shortfallover the next 75 years.

-The U.S. government is facing a total of 222 trillion dollars in unfunded liabilities during the years ahead. Social Security and Medicare make up the bulk of that.

Yes, things seem somewhat stable for the moment in America today.

But the same thing could have been said about 2007. The stock market was soaring, the economy seemed like it was rolling right along and people were generally optimistic about the future.

Then the financial crisis of 2008 erupted and it seemed like the world was going to end.

Well, the truth is that another great crisis is rapidly approaching, and we are in far worse shape financially than we were back in 2008.

Don’t get blindsided by what is ahead. Evidence of the coming catastrophe is all around you.

Father Of ISIS Social Media Guru Still President Of Islamic Elementary School In US

9/30/2014

The revelation that Boston-area fugitive Ahmad Abousamra is running the Islamic State’s (ISIS) sophisticated social media propaganda campaign casts light on the leadership of a complex of radical mosques in and around the Greater Boston area. According to information obtained during litigation discovery and provided by Boston Muslims who asked not to be identified out of fear for their physical safety, Ahmad Abousamra is deeply connected to the top Muslim community leaders in Boston.

Ahmad’s father, Abdulbadi Abousamra (Abousamra Sr.), has served as a president or board member of several mosques, Islamic schools, and Muslim political organizations in Massachusetts from the mid-1990s. In fact, he is still the president of an Islamic elementary school in Sharon, MA. Abousamra Sr. had used his leadership position in multiple Boston Islamic institutions to import extremist and terrorist-affiliated imams into Boston. One of these imams, Hafiz Masood, appears to be the one who radicalized his son, Ahmad Abousamra (Abousamra Jr.).

So how can we define a Cochran Republican? They are the opposite of McDaniel Republicans

9/30/2014

McDaniel Republicans believe in true Jeffersonian conservatism and can trace their ideological heritage back to the formation of Jefferson’s insurgency in the early 1790s. In my book, The Last Jeffersonian, I defined these principles this way: limited government, federalism, economy and accountability, sound money, low taxes and tariffs, fair trade, no national debt, strict construction of the Constitution, protection of civil liberties, a strong national defense, and a non-interventionist foreign policy. How else could you describe conservatism?

Cochran Republicans, representing the establishment, call themselves conservatives but are nothing of the sort. It is a bit harder to pin down their ideological beliefs because they really don’t seem to have any, flirting as they did with Democrats in the June 24 runoff. Perhaps if Mr. Cochran had debated Senator McDaniel, rather than run after liberal votes, we might know more about what his real views are but instead he stayed scarce. That, though, was the plan. To be fair, if I had his voting record I would not want to showcase it in front of the whole state either.

So how can we define a Cochran Republican? They are the opposite of McDaniel Republicans. In short, they capitulate to the notion of Big Government

Read the whole thing here...but this paragraph is key...

It’s McDaniel Republicans who are standing against Common Core; Cochran Republicans support it. It’s McDaniel Republicans who are fighting to defend the border and against amnesty; Cochran Republicans seek open borders and cheap labor. It’s McDaniel Republicans who are seeking to audit the Fed and save the dollar; Cochran Republicans recoil at the notion. It’s McDaniel Republicans who seek to end the IRS and it’s abuses; Cochran Republicans like it just the way it is. It’s McDaniel Republicans who want to restrain the growing powers of the president; Cochran Republicans want a strong, unaccountable executive, at least when a Republican is in office. The list could go on ad infinitum.

"man charged with beheading 1 co-worker & stabbing another said attack likely had more to do with race than religion" ???

9/30/2014

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. — The district attorney prosecuting the case against a man charged with beheading one co-worker and stabbing another said the attack likely had more to do with race than religion. (ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME? HAD MORE TO DO WITH RACE THAN RELIGION? IS THAT WHY HE BEHEADED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SHARIA LAW? DID IT HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH THE FACT THAT THESE EMPLOYEES WOULD NOT CONVERT TO ISLAM OR DIDN'T AGREE WITH THE STONING OF WOMEN IN ACCORDANCE WITH SHARIA LAW? YOU PEOPLE ARE WORSE THAN THEY BECAUSE YOU GUYS CAN'T CONFRONT THE ENEMY WHICH AND CONDEMN FOR THE MURDEROUS RADICAL MUSLIMS THEY ARE...)

District Attorney Greg Mashburn said one of the co-workers Alton Nolen reportedly stabbed had reported to supervisors he did not like “white people.”

However, Mashburn also said Nolen planned to attack, “different races and different genders.” (So tell me agina how this had more to do with race than religion...there aren't any black people in this country beheading people. That is the exclusive M.O. of radical muslims but go ahead and kid yourself into believing the happy talk your superiors continue spewing out so they can sleep at night. Hopefully you guys will never come into contact with the "supposed" racists who want to chop off your heads)

Mashburn also said Nolen, who is charged with first-degree murder, had an obsession with beheading. (DUH!!! It's a muslim thing... don't worry your pretty little politically correct brain about it...)

Nolen, who had converted to Islam, had anti-U.S. and Israel statement on his Facebook page as well as a beheading video. (But silly rabbit, don't think that has anything to do with the beheading cuz it was a racial thing...)

I have one thing to say about the reporting in this article...YOU LIE!!!

Are you smarter than a common core 3rd grader? College students from George Mason U aren't...

9/30/2014

College students at George Mason University were recently shown the Common Core method — being taught to many of America’s elementary school students — for solving this basic math problem: 32 – 12 = ?
If you can follow the “logical” sequence for arriving at the answer, congratulations. The rest of us are stumped.
