BABE HUGGETT:

The Democratic Party’s vehemence was triggered by the King Street Patriots’ dedicated uncovering of voter fraud on the rolls and its non-partisan True the Vote initiative, which seeks to assure fair and free elections for voters of all political parties through education and training of poll watchers and poll workers to look out for additional voter fraud at the polls.

Some of the election abuses uncovered and documented by the King Street Patriots have included multiple voter registrations, non-citizen voter registrations, fraudulent voter information, forged voter signatures, election officials verbally bullying voters to either change their ballot choices or vote a straight Democratic ticket up to and including actually manipulating the voting machines for the voters and elected officials, like Democratic Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee, campaigning directly outside polling places. Other documented Democratic Party member abuses include a lunatic minister and a self-proclaimed leader of the New Black Panthers along with his henchmen entering polling places to verbally and physically intimidate poll watchers.

The Democratic Party is joined by two front groups in a lawsuit and an ethics complaint against Catherine Engelbrecht and the King Street Patriots. The two groups are Texans for Public Justice and Texans Together Education Fund. Both groups receive their money from the Open Society Institute (OSI). OSI was founded in 1993 by George Soros to “Build Vibrant & Tolerant Democracies” so it is ironic to see that tolerance is not extended to groups dedicated to fighting voter fraud. Texans Together Education Fund’s subsidiary is Houston Votes currently itself accused by the Harris County Tax Assessor-Collector office of voter fraud registration.

Catherine Engelbrecht and the King Street Patriots are represented by the 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, Liberty Institute and the James Madison Center for Free Speech, which was founded to protect the First Amendment rights of free speech and political discourse for American citizens and citizen groups.

The president and CEO of Liberty Institute, Kelly Shackelford, stated, “As a matter of law, corporations cannot sue individuals for defamation; this attack is baseless.  All these attacks are clearly an attempt to bully and silence a group of volunteer citizens who are just trying to keep the election process honest. This is pure desperation by a Democratic Party everyone knows is not doing so well.”

Additionally, James Bopp, Jr., the architect of the U.S. Supreme Court Citizens United campaign finance case, who is a lead Constitutional counselor at the James Madison Center for Free Speech and who is personally handling the King Street Party’s countersuit said, “The Texas Democratic Party is using state law to try to silence citizens’ political free speech even though the U.S. Supreme Court vigorously applies First Amendment protections in this area. Nonprofit 501(c)(4) organizations are allowed to engage in the political process without disclosing their donors or registering as a political committee, and Texas laws to the contrary are unconstitutional.”

The last word, however, goes to Catherine Engelbrecht herself, who commented, “Although I’m disgusted by these attacks, I am not deterred.  Our work in Houston and our vision for a fair and free election in every county of the nation continues. These lawsuits are exactly the kind of abusive disrespect for citizens that got our political leaders into trouble. We will not be intimidated by partisan attacks, by the Democratic Party, or by anyone.”

And, in a phone interview with this reporter last night, Engelbrecht added the following determined statement, “We’re prepared to go the distance.”

True the Vote’s initiative game plan is to get concerned citizens actively involved in the election process to combat voter fraud. While fraudulent votes are a main worry anywhere, unwatched polls, corrupted judges and clerks are also a main, but underreported, venue for fraud. The True the Vote initiative provides resources, instructions and the training to ensure that those Americans concerned enough to get actively involved in the election process, know their legal requirements and rights at the polling place.

Watching the voter fraud occurring in minority communities and hearing the horror stories of poll watcher witnesses, it is becoming rapidly apparent to this reporter that the majority of the judges and clerks within these communities in question have partisan ties to the Democratic Party.

There are several positions that concerned citizens in Texas can apply for, some of which are paid : Precinct Chair, Deputy Voter Registrar, Presiding Judge, Alternate Judge, Clerk, Poll Watchers and Judges Booth Controllers (JBC), who operate the machine which give out the voter access code to vote.

For those position other than poll watchers, the King Street Patriots started with True the Vote Boot Camp in September which they described as, “…a preparatory course to teach fundamental polling place procedures, focusing on identifying voter fraud or intimidation. Attendees will be instructed in the proper procedures to identify, report, and document, illegal behaviors in the polling place and surrounding area classes “

Their boot camp was followed in October with training provided by Harris County itself featuring election law and E-Slate training.

Volunteers wishing to be poll watchers could attend Texas election law classes at the King Street Patriots’ headquarters from September through October. Instructors Alan and Colleen Vera, provided handouts, testing, guidance and on-line attendance from bloggers as far away as Hawaii.

I spoke with Catherine Engelbrecht, who is head of the King Street Patriots, and she stated that they have trained over a thousand poll watchers through True the Vote. Other states can look at what the King Street Patriots have accomplished through their True the Vote initiative and modify it to accommodate their own state’s election laws.

King St Patriots Fight Back

Speaking for the King Street Patriots was their Liberty Institute lawyer, Jonathan Saenz, who enumerated the harassment the poll watchers have endured from verbal abuse and veiled threats all the way up to being physically manhandled and assaulted.

Saenz said, “We are so concerned by these attacks against volunteer poll-watchers, most of whom are stay-at-home moms or elderly, that we have asked the Justice Department to help and even attend True the Vote poll watcher trainings. Having poll watchers is not only the law, it is crucial in a free society that all candidates and parties can see and make sure the election was held with integrity. Being attacked for fulfilling that civic role is inexcusable.”

King Street Patriots leader, Catherine Engelbrecht, backed up Saenz’s statement when she took the mike and commented, “Many of the poll watchers being attacked are soccer moms and senior citizens, who volunteer their time because they love their country and want to ensure a free and fair election. The True the Vote poll watcher trainings are for anyone who wants to get involved. Attacks on silent poll watchers are not only against the law but shameful.”

King Street patriots and the trained poll watchers have come under increasingly slanderous and libelous attacks from the local and national media along with prejudiced commentary from organizations like the NAACP. From the aggressive tenor of the agenda-driven questions asked as exemplified by the local Channel 26TV FOX affiliate at the press conference, the reporters there seemed to think that the King Street Patriots and the poll watchers were the ones, who had created the hostile atmosphere at the polling places originally.

This was countered by actual poll watchers themselves coming to the podium as credible witnesses to counteract the false and misleading news reporting by Main Stream Media outlets.

First to speak was poll watcher, Shirley Andries, who said she saw clerks at her polling place literally showing hundreds of voters how to vote by “assisting” them, mainly how to vote a straight Democratic ticket. She mentioned one incident where a clerk aggressively questioned one voter over their choices then ordered them back into the booth to change their ballot selections to a straight Democratic Party ticket.

Next up were husband and wife team, Tom and Francine Fiesel, first time volunteers, whose harassment at the polls included verbal abuse and veiled threats to their homes and families. Their first problem came when a voter complained that the Fiesels were white followed shortly by a member of the clergy coming in to yell abuse at them. Poll watchers must supply personal information in order to be accredited and the judge at the polling place the Fiesels were at handed over the Fiesels’ personal information to this gentleman, who then faxed it. The Fiesels reported that the clergyman acted like he was in an official capacity and the clerks cooperated with him fully.

While recounting their harrowing experience, Francine’s broke into tears and her husband, Tom, an Iraqi war veteran, had to finish up. After the press conference was over, he admitted to this reporter that dodging bullets in Iraq was less frightening than being a poll watcher in Houston.

However, Tom went on to confirm their commit to ensuring the integrity of the voting process by saying, “Voting is sacred, the bedrock of America.”

The final poll watcher witness was Melinda Kinley, who appeared on video to recount how she was manhandled by a clerk, who grabbed her by the arm and shoved her hard away from a voting booth when she saw that clerk reaching inside the occupied voting booth with both hands.

Saenz then came back to the podium and told the reporters that the lawsuits being brought against the King Street Patriots were baseless, purposely harassing and a form of intimidation. Saenz emphasized that the poll watchers are all volunteers, not employed by the King Street Patriots and that their training, through the True the Vote initiative, adheres strictly to election law.

Besides calling once again for the DOJ to send officials to investigate the attacks on the poll watchers, Saenz finished up with saying that in the process, the DOJ would also then be able to investigate the actual and clearly illegal electioneering of elected officials inside minority community polling places.

The biggest attack came directly from the Obama Administration’s oxymoronic Department of Justice in response to a letter sent by the King Street Patriots alerting the department of what they had found. Instead of thanking the group for exposing how the Democratic party is blatantly using black communities centered around Houston as tools to commit voter fraud, the DOJ is suing the King Street Patriots for “voter intimidation” based solely on trumped-up accusations coming from outraged democratic operatives complaining that they find the mere presence of the poll watchers, many of whom are elderly women, “threatening”.

The accusations are specious but have now provided a jumping off point for left leaning news and opinion outlets to attack the King Street Patriots organization as a racist group with suspect funding. The local ABC affiliate, Channel 13, even speculated on their evening news broadcast that the King Street Patriots would soon be facing jail time. Democratic congresswoman, Sheila Jackson Lee, whose 18th congressional district polling places are not used to actual scrutiny, demanded and got the King Street Patriot’s financial records in order to somehow expose the locally-funded-through-private-citizen donation group as being ban rolled by some imagined billionaire with an agenda much like leftist organizations themselves are funded by the likes of a George Soros , Ted Turner, or Stephen Rockefeller.

Catherine Engelbrecht, head of the King Street Patriots, said, “I was just in stunned disbelief that a station I grew up watching would take a completely fallacious statement as damaging as “going to jail” is and broadcast it with abandon. Where’s the accountability?”

The NAACP has also joined in on this latest example of leftist psychological warfare with the following statement from their, Co-Director of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund Political Participation Group, Kristen Clarke, who stated that “There doesn’t seem to be a color blind approach to many of these so called ballot integrity efforts and poll watching initiatives that are underway. The reports that we are hearing about are very troubling…largely assigned to monitor African American and Latino voters.”

The online Mother Jones website is following the national leftist trend of “Voter fraud, what voter fraud?” by dismissing the King Street Patriots’ verified evidence. In the Mother Jones article, Has Voter Intimidation Already Begun? Mother Jones intimates that the King Street Patriots is manufacturing hysteria and that there is little if any cause for concern on the right but the left has to worry about voters being scared away at the polls. ( http://motherjones.com/mojo/2010/10/has-voter-intimidation-already-begun )

Talking Point Memo/TPMMuckracker reports that racist emails are being sent out in the name of Kings Street Patriot and that a site called Press (Talk88) has reproduced what they claim is one of those emails forwarded to them from TPM. Stylistically, the barely literate rantings are more indicative of what one finds at the Daily KOS or Democratic Underground and the King Street Patriots are shocked but not surprised at the calumny.

“It’s outrageous. “ stated Catherine Engelbrecht as she called TPM‘s libelous bluff. “We believe these emails to be a complete fabrication and if they have those emails, let’s see them. Until they produce them, they have NO basis for their story and need to retract it.”

Now, I am not going to go into the history, Victorian politics or plot of the The Pirates of Penzance or the artistic tensions and musical rivalries between Gilbert & Sullivan here. That is for the curious to find out for themselves. So my apologies to Gilbert & Sullivan but what I am going to do is, in my own way, bring their satiric observation of Peter Principle leaders up-to-date:

Obama is the Very Model of a Modern Major Generalist

Obama is the very model of a modern Major-Generalist
He can’t be bothered with information unless it is minimalist
He hates the Queen of England, and holds grudges quite historical
From Indonesia to Kenya, in orders categorical

He’s very well acquainted, too, with communities organizational
He understands the shake downs, both lending and corporational
About leftist academics he’s teeming with a lot o’ views
With many cheerful plans to skew the US Constitution’s use.

With many cheerful plans to skew the US Constitution’s use.
With many cheerful plans to skew the US Constitution’s use.
With many cheerful plans to skew the US Constitution’s use.

He’s very good at bowing to and hugging leaders dictatorialist
He knows just how to grovel and in War on Terror is defeatist
In short, in matters informational minimalist
Obama is the very model of a modern Major-Generalist.

In short, in matters informational minimalist
Obama is the very model of a modern Major-Generalist.

He doesn’t believe in American exceptionalism, gets a fit of colic
He won’t answer the hard questions, has a petty taste for the histrionic
He reads in a strange cadence from teleprompters ubiquitous
In control-freak politics his socialism is historically iniquitous

He’s either vacation goofing off or teeing off with buddies
He boogies every Wednesday with a guest list that’s star-studdy
Then hums a call-to-prayer under cover of the West Wing’s din afore
And whistles all the airs from that foolish Paul McCartney bore

And whistles all the airs from that foolish Paul McCartney bore
And whistles all the airs from that foolish Paul McCartney bore
And whistles all the airs from that foolish Paul McCartney bore

Then he signs unread bills to socialize American medicine transform
And you must tell the IRS ev’ry medical insurance detail on your form
In short, in matters informational minimalist
Obama is the very model of a modern Major-Generalist

In short, in matters informational minimalist
Obama is the very model of a modern Major-Generalist

In fact, he knows what is meant by “sedition” and “treason”
When he can’t tell us his birthplace as proof of his usurpation
When such knowledge comes to light the country will go crazy at
And he knows precisely what is meant by “silent coup d’etat”

When he’s finally ruined America from socialist experiments
When he knows that jobless citizens are reduced to camping tents
In short, when he has achieved through Cap and Trade what Marx dreamed of as his own
You’ll say a better Major-Generalist had never sat a throne

You’ll say a better Major-Generalist had never sat a throne
You’ll say a better Major-Generalist had never sat a throne
You’ll say a better Major-Generalist had never sat a throne

For his political consolidation through ACORN of the Jackass Party
Has a plan for Amnesty to make illegal immigrants Democratic voters hardy
But still, in matters informational minimalist
Obama is the very model of a modern Major-Generalist

But still, in matters informational minimalist
Obama is the very model of a modern Major-Generalist

However, this type of decadent, inartistic slovenliness gets repetitiously boring after a while and a teen’s radar is exquisitely tuned to winnowing out the bogus from the merely banal. So what’s a poor teen looking for someone to pattern themselves after supposed to do? Our past heroes and heroines are either excoriated for not being politically correct, if they are even mentioned at all, or are considered so out-of-date as to be irrelevant. In fact, what with all this eco-greenie Gaia worship going on in our public schools, humans themselves are not only not held up as something worth while but actively despised for their respective and collective carbon footprints. Even that current socialist secular living saint, President Obama, is proving to have feet of clay for them because BP oil is still gushing into the Gulf of Mexico soiling US beaches, destroying Louisiana tide water ecosystems and killing untold numbers of marine and animal life all while he goes on yet another vacation and/or tees off at the nearest golf course.

One thing that I doubt anyone on the educational, environmentalist Left has bothered to remember, if they ever knew it to begin with, is that Nature abhors a vacuum whether it is in spatial form or between one’s ears. When one has nothing worth evaluating on the noodle, all types of silliness gets planted and takes root. Now socialism can’t really exist when the populace is actually educated so ignorance by humanity for Leftists is control-freak bliss. However, socialists NEVER seem to grasp that human nature is constant and therefore not perfectible within artificial, secular constructs.

Unfortunately for all of us, a folly of human nature is that it is prone to memes, the more nonsensical sometimes the better especially when one is no longer grounded historically, religiously or culturally and therefore adrift and bored out of one’s skull. It is how fads, crazes and cultural inanities get so widespread. It’s why some people anthropomorphize their pets into children, yearn to become blue skinned Na’avi, or reinvent the wheel when all they had to do was a little research.

The latest cultural wheel reinvention is happening right now in Texas schools where “wolf packs” of up to 20 teens come to school sporting fangs, slit iris yellow contact lenses and furry tails, yes, tails attached to their bumms. Influenced by Benicio Del Toro’s role and make-up in the movie, Twilight and The Wolfman, not to mention all the pro-werewolf comics, animated cartoons and TV shows that have inundated their lives these past years, Texas teens are howling with delight although they don’t want to be feared.

Evidently playing Hallowe’en dress-up year round gives them a feeling of “belonging” to a group as evidenced by what 15 year old “pack leader”, Deikitsen “Lupus” Manley of San Antonio’s Brandeis High School claims:

Human wolves have been around a lot longer than characters in Twilight. It gives us a sense of belonging. You gain friends and you belong and indulge your wild side.

And where are the parents in all this? Pam, Deikitsen’s mother, made excuses for her son’s childish play-acting lack of public dignity by saying, “As soon as he walks in the door, he is supposed to take out the fangs, and lose the lenses and tail. They’re good kids. It takes courage to stand up and be who you want to be.”

Uh…since when did “werewolf” become a career choice? Does that mean Deikitsen will father a litter with his future mate? Can he get a job without his rabies shots or drive a car without his dog license?

This werewolf craze is not just in Texas although the costuming seems to be confined to that state for now. A young teen of my acquaintance in Oregon is obsessed with lycanthropes and does nothing but draw them all day. At an age when she should be showing interest in the real world, she’s instead drawing such blood-curdling creatures that I expressed real concern about the state of her mental health to her mother, who replied, “Oh, she’s just allowing her internal rage to vent through her art.”

Say what? That kid utterly skates through life with everything handed to her on a silver platter. She is totally without any personal responsibilities or discipline and would forget to breathe if it wasn’t an automatic reflex. Is being stuck for years drawing the same Japanese-inspired manga style gothic horror cartoons a venting mechanism for a typical, government-controlled public school student bereft of all intellectual curiosity and desire for learning?

(British social commentator, prison physician and writer, Theodore Dalrymple, theorized that the normalcy of cursing in even what passes for normal speech now is a prime example of the inarticulate rage one experiences when confronted with complex emotions hamstrung by a limited vocabulary thanks to substandard, government-run state schools.)

So what looks on the surface to be another cyclic generational teen fad ala Michael Landon or Michael J. Fox has a troubling undercurrent of mental instability. Lest anyone think that it’s just teens that fall prey to this fad, young adults are joining in but with even scarier undertones. Someone calling herself “Wolfie Blackheart” found what she claimed was a dead dog, cut off its head and boiled it making sure to post her culinary skills on the web for all to see.

When her exercise in really graphic photo journalism came to the attention of the local police, Wolfie went in to that default mode as exhibited by the Texas teens about not needing to be feared because, “I would never kill a canine. I am a canine.”

BABE HUGGETT:

If you’re a liberal/socialist, you’ll be sneering, “Easter? That’s just a pagan holiday commandeered by Rome! Look at the goddess Ēostre’s symbols of rabbits and eggs! Hey! Who ate the ears off my chocolate bunny?”

If you’re an atheist, you’re grumbling about there, “…being no God, hence no meaning to Jesus – if he ever existed in the first place – and why the heck isn’t this a four day weekend like Winter Festival?”

If you’re a Muslim, well, you’re smirking along the lines of, “I can’t wait for Mohammed’s slave, Isa, to come back and destroy the Christians!”

In the spirit of religious diversity, I suppose it’s expected of me to go on to the other great religions and what their followers think of Easter but time, space and their lack of tyrannical political drive precludes me from saying anything other than while they think their religions are the true ones, everybody eats marshmallow peeps this time of year so why not have some fun?

While the Christian conservative has it right about Easter, he is missing and/or forgetting a key element of why the atheists and socialists and Muslims hate Jesus and His Message. Inherent within the teachings of Christ are two great themes: 1) You are free to have a direct, one-to-one relationship with God so therefore you do not need ritualistic, third party folderol to get between you and Him and 2) The men, who govern other men, are to be Christ-like good shepherds and Fishers of Men, who are true servants of the public for the good of men’s physical and spiritual wellbeing, hence the title Public Servant.

Yes, that’s right: Public SERVANT and not over-privileged Looters-in-chief or fat, boggle-eyed Caliphate imam princelings living a life of debauched decadence. We are constantly admonished by the established Church and State to be “meek and humble like sheep” but it’s the wolves, who have taken command of their respective flocks now. While they demand obedience, fast segueing into obeisance from us, they have no intention of honoring their position by keeping our welfare uppermost in their thoughts and deeds.

What is worse is that instead of the beloved sheep of a Good Shepherd’s flock, these modern day religious and secular closet dictators view us as mere cattle. They only think of us as sheep when it comes time to be shorn. That’s why you get people like the Obamas, Pelosis, Kennedys, Clintons and Reids of this world espousing spreading everyone’s else’s wealth around but theirs through grotesque and ever-increasing taxation demands. It’s why you get government agencies and unconstitutional laws demanding , and now forcing, you to buy crippling policies and inferior goods, services and medicines in order to keep money flowing to big corporations. It’s why you have to constantly toe the line from grade school through college in order to emerge over-debted, underemployed and underpaid as you compete with Third World workers through globalization.

And heaven help you if you so much as make a murmur of dissent or get past a certain age. Suddenly you find yourself thrown from what little safety you think you have in the communitarian, wolf-guarded flock to the real wolves of hunger, poverty and despair. Toss in the fear-driven social disapproval for your hard lot and it’s enough to make even the staunchest believer in individual rights cynical about the future.

Just remember the next time you hear about the lavish, Washington DC lifestyles of those who secretly think they are our betters that the difference between a pirate and a privateer is a government mandate. It’s why you get to eat budget-friendly ramen noodles three times a week while they have access to the finest wines and liquors, the choicest foods, and best living arrangements. It’s why you have no privacy left; even down to being exposed naked to the world through airport x-rays while they conveniently fly unimpeded on taxpayer-funded military and private jets. It’s why you had better fork over every penny you have left to the IRS while they blithely “forget” to pay their taxes.

And if you have enough energy left over to wonder about what is going on with the debasing of organized religion, then those, who are enjoying the secular benefits of cushy positions can use the threat of hell fire and damnation over your heads if you don’t follow their ritualistic rules from fasting, tithing and attendance right down to unquestioning obedience in blowing yourselves up in order to further “religious” goals of physical and political world dominance.

So what is a good Christian to do especially when Christ admonished us to render unto Caesar? First off, realize what is legitimately Caesar’s! Caesar, i.e. the State, does have claims and what the State is allowed to do is enumerated in our Constitution. Get politically active and let what we still laughingly refer to as our “representatives” know that they better start actually representing us or they will be voted out in the next election cycle. Then watch the ballot box like hawks to ensure fraudulent votes do not make for stolen elections. We keep hearing that we, “…get the government we deserve…” but stolen elections mean we are governed by frauds, and who deserves that?

Secondly, put your energy into spirituality and not religiosity! Your faith belongs in Christ and not fallible priests, ministers and definitely not hate-mongering preachers of any denomination! The Catholic Church claims that the Pope is infallible but he is only infallible when he speaks ex cathedra on matters of faith and a pope has not done that since 1950 when Pope Pius XII proclaimed on the Assumption of the Virgin Mary into heaven.

Thirdly, when Christ admonished us to “…turn the other cheek…” He did not mean that we are to become punching bags. Inherent within Christianity is the warrior spirit of the laity called to ensuring goodness prevails over evil through faith and good works. This notion found its highest earthly fruition through chivalry whereby men of arms vowed to use their physical strength and social standing for the good of all. They led by example and their high standards of conduct influenced those below them to emulate their actions.

And now I have brought you full circle back to the notion of the Good Shepherd and Fishers of Men. It falls on each and every one of us, who call ourselves Christian, to resist tyranny whether it comes from politics and/or religion because a triumphant Christ calls all of us to service. The beasts in control of our flocks know this and nothing frightens them more than rogue sheep. That’s ultimately why they are so intent on destroying Christianity. Remember this as you celebrate Easter this year and every Easter thereafter!

BABE HUGGETT:

In 2001 I wrote an editorial on what the socialists of the Labour Party in the UK would ultimately face if they continually accused concerned British citizens of parochialism, racism and bigotry when they spoke out against Labour’s gross mismanagement and malfeasance coupled with its obscene immigration policies encouraging massive and uncontrolled immigration into the UK from hostile, aggressive, alien Third World countries. I predicted that as Labour continually smeared people of good will, these same people would not only vote Labour out of office but would gravitate away from main political parties to ones that would offer them acceptance.

Unfortunately, the Tories, like our own GOP failing to forcefully defend the TEA Party patriots, are currently echoing elitist and racist accusations as defined by Labour, so the only political parties left for concerned, patriotic Brits is either the lackluster United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP) or the truculent British National Party (BNP), which is campaigning on British national pride and stopping/reversing immigration especially from Islamic nations.

The BNP is national-socialist, which technically makes it a later day version of the Nazi Party and is rapidly gaining in strength among British voters. It is leftist but it is identified as “right wing” in the media because of what is known as “The Brown Smear” that has been perpetrated on Western people ever since Stalin switched sides during WWII and threw his weight in with the Allies. The Soviets were international communists while the Nazis were national communists. It was inevitable for them to turn on each other but the Soviets cleverly got Western media to equate national patriotism with the BROWN shirted national socialists of Nazism.

The identification with American patriotism and Nazis went into full court press during the Cold War. It’s why American conservatives are constantly referred to as racists, bigots and Nazis. “Left” and “Right”, BTW, only means which side of the aisle one’s political party was seated on in Parliament. That British tradition is all pretty much forgotten now as is the color association with blue for patriots and red for communists. Only in America is that color code reversed and that came about during Bill Clinton’s 1992 US Presidential campaign when the Democrats abruptly switched from their normal red to blue and the MSM went right along with it. The GOP at the time complained but, hey, you repeat that lie long enough, it becomes the truth. And the MSM repeats it down to this day. Goebbels would be so proud…

As to the current smears…you and I know that they are lies and perpetrated by the Left but the MSM is dutifully repeating it even though the same MSM was remarkably silent over the actual death threats and vandalism the Democrats have perpetrated on Republicans and conservatives all along. How many “racial” incidents have there been over these last decades that were actually done by leftists themselves in order to inflame the nation? Like, maybe, 99.9% of them?

Projection of their own innate ugliness and evil onto us is what they are doing and it is what the Left does best because they are basically insane. Socialism is the denial of reality and human nature. Denial of reality is insanity hence syndicated radio talk show host Michael Savage’s comment that “Liberalism is a mental disorder.”

Next stop for the Obama regime is Amnesty in time for 30+ million illegals to register as Democratic voters come November. I have pointed out again and again in my BlogTalk Radio show, Life, Liberty & the Pursuit of Conservatism, and in my writing that the Democrats have been acting like they will NEVER be out of power. I figured voter fraud was their game but I was praying that they wouldn’t follow the UK Labour Party’s game plan of flooding the country with colonizers whose very abuses of the system will get you labeled a “bigot” if you dare to speak out against the purposeful destruction of your country’s citizenship.

Anti-British Obama may be as disrespectful to the UK as he likes but socialists worldwide do play from the same game book. November 2010 is our last chance at the voting booth to return America back to a republic and away from socialism and the socialist elites in DC know it. Look for a rushed amnesty of the 30+ million illegals in this country to happen between now and then so that they will get full voting rights as “citizens”, oh-so-grateful to the Democrats for the legalization!!!

The Cat In the Hat was written by Dr. Seuss, (pen name of Theodor Seuss Geisel), in 1957 as a response to a challenge by the Life magazine writer, John Hershey, who specifically mentioned Geisel as an ideal illustrator for modern children’s books in a May 25, 1954 article titled “Why Do Students Bog Down on First R? A Local Committee Sheds Light on a National Problem: Reading”. Geisel’s publisher, Random House, asked him to write a new style of engaging children’s literature using a limited vocabulary of only 400 words, which the publisher’s estimated school children were learning at the time. Geisel cut the suggested list down to 223 and added 16 of his own.

Using the pseudonym of “Dr. Seuss”, Geisel’s The Cat In the Hat proved an instant hit and the story of the two rainy day bored young children first enjoying then panicking over the crazy, chaotic antics of a floppy red-and-white stripped hat wearing tuxedo Cat accompanied by his eagerly undisciplined partners-in-crime, Thing One and Thing Two still resonates with young readers 53 years later.

In fact, The Cat in the Hat is such a fondly remembered piece of American literature that it was recently quoted in the US Senate when, in 2008, Senate Majority Leader, Harry Reid, in complaining of a stalled immigration reform bill likened the problems on the Senate floor with the chaos caused by the Cat and read out from the book into the Senate record, “‘That is good,’ said the fish.’He’s gone away, yes. But your mother will come. She will find this big mess.’”

Reid went on to explain, “If you go back and read Dr. Seuss, the cat manages to clean up the mess.” A tip o’ the Cat’s hat to whichever analyst so succinctly commented about Reid’s failure to get the bill passed by saying “the Cat in the Hat did not have to contend with cloture.”

Now, considering that if Dr. Seuss was alive today as a cantankerous 106 year old watching the purposeful destruction of America through the Cloward-Priven strategy and Saul Alinsky formulated chaos, he’d want to revisit his The Cat In the Hat characters using the cadence of his Green Eggs and Ham with President Obama as the hammy Cat, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi as Thing One yegg and Harry Reid as Thing Two yegg:

I do not love the Rule of Law.
I do not claim citizenry from Paw.
I do not follow Constitutional rules.
I do not care if I hurt Democratic mules.

I party every Wednesday without fail.
I drink like a fish and dine on quail.
Everything revolves around me, me, me.
I won! I won! So let me be!

I’m off to golf instead of work.
I snub the Brits and Gordon Brown’s a jerk.
I grovel in front of every despot I can.
America needs to learn that I’m the Man!

Nancy Thing is always at my side.
To my star she’s hitched a ride.
Harry Thing makes quotes so snide.
Come November 2010 they’ll have no place to hide.

The three of us America want to socialize.
Socialize! Socialize! America we want to socialize.
Obamacare is our master plan.
To take America down the can.
Obamacare! Obamacare! We’ll ram it through!
With new taxes now but no healthcare due.

The sick and elderly will wait and wait.
Fate! Fate! Succumb to fate!
Death panels and abortions late!
The old the over-taxed young will come to hate.

ARE YOU A CITIZEN BORN AND TRUE?
ARE YOU OF THE RED, WHITE AND BLUE?

I keep my past full under wrap.
I will not, care not to my citizenship provide a map.

DID YOU NOT SWEAR UPON A BIBLE?
DID YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE LIABLE?

I did swear upon a Bible.
I did not care that I am liable.
I did not dwell on my Kenyan family tribal.
I will not worry about birthers libel.

DID YOU INTERNALIZE KARL MARX?
DID YOU HOPE FOR CIVIL WAR SPARKS?

I did internalize Karl Marx.
I did hope for Civil War sparks.
I did not love America ever in my life.
I did not and neither did my wife.
I did not become President to bring you hope.
I care not; will not because I’m no dope.

I became President to bring you change.
With Communist failure that is destructive and strange.

Rodgers, a 25 year veteran of ABC Radio and a 15 year veteran at KSFO with his highly rated and profitable Lee Rodgers Show, was in the normal process of renegotiating his contract for renewal in July when he was fired last week. In a clear violation of his contract, Rodgers said that his leaving, “…was forced upon me, with no notice.”

Talk Show Host Lee Rodgers

ABC Radio is owned by Citadel Corporation and is in bankruptcy. Its move to terminate one of its highest rated and profitable hosts in a major metropolitan market seems counter-productive but is not unusual under Citadel’s current management. Earlier in the month Chicago sister station, WLS-AM 890 fired in mid-week the abrasive but entertaining libertarian, Mancow Muller, and his co-host, Pat Cassidy, for, as Muller put it, “no rhyme or reason.”

In an email sent to his fans, Rodgers wrote, “The top management of Citadel, led by a CEO named Farid Suleiman–widely regarded as the most incompetent executive in broadcasting–decided that I was making too much money after 25 years with ABC and fifteen as morning host on KSFO, taking no note of the fact that I’ve generated large sums of money for the company.”

Rodgers then went on to say, “I WILL tell you, in all candor, that thanks to Mr. Suleiman’s Citadel management, I could no longer proudly say that the company had never told me what to say or what not to say.  There was an obvious cave-in to some ultra-left and pro-Muslim groups, making it unlikely that I would have ever renewed my contract with the company, anyway.”

Rodgers’ co-host, Melanie Morgan, lost her slot in what ostensibly was a cost-cutting move on the part of KSFO in 2008. However, immediately before she was let go, Morgan was war reporting directly from Iraq and was one of the leading charity organizers in the nation for sending goodie packages to our frontline fighting men and women in the WOT. Morgan was pro-Bush and a major cheerleader on the Iraqi and Afghani fronts. Even though her husband, Jack Swanson, was then and still is the manager of KSFO, it was not enough to ensure that her contract was renewed.

Over the 15 years that Rodgers was morning host, he was famous for not suffering fools gladly and holding firmly to conservative principles. He repeatedly stated that the last, true President of the United States concerned with the actual welfare of America was Ronald Reagan and that the Islamic nation building conducted under President Bush II was a disastrous waste of American manpower and money. Rodgers advocated secure borders, reported on Islamic terrorism, cultural jihad and creeping sharia within the USA, and repeatedly hammered on the Obama Administration over its gross incompetence, corruption, conflicts of interest, bailouts and willful shredding of the Constitution.

Rodgers’ co-hosts, Melanie Morgan and Officer Vic (Tom Benner), followed his lead but Rodgers left them in the dust with his show preparation and research that was so extensive he operated on only four hours of sleep a day. Rodgers never accepted second-rate thinking from anyone including his guests and nationally syndicated conservative talk show host, Mark Levin, cut his radio teeth with Rodgers as a call-in debater when Levin was a patent attorney in the South Bay/Silicon Valley city of Sunnyvale.

Rodgers is not registered with the Republican Party and, unlike many other conservative radio talk show hosts, refuses to carry water for the GOP. Rodgers could easily translate into national syndication and would give Levin and Rush Limbaugh major competition for listeners.
