NEVER UNDER ESTIMATE THE POWER OF STUPID PEOPLE

I have many words for this election cycle, but I have no strength left to put it into a blog.

Setting the tone for moving forward, we have to consider many things, the biggest one is, do I keep blogging.

Last night, hate and evil won over what is good in America. Last night and today, from watching speaker Ryan, very archaic America beat out new progressive America.

An America chock full of wing nuts - that being the Senate, the House and the Presidency, leaves a sane America, and the world, trembling in their boots.

For those whom Trump called out during his campaign, be very concerned.Our only hope, that this potential child rape case sends Trump to where he belongs.

I will not ever join Trump and his basket full of deporables. I'll let him sink us into oblivion on his own. His values are not mine, his vision for a radical alt right insanity, I will never co-champion.

I sit in wonderment, as to what the all powerful Oz [God] has planned for this country. So it is He that I have to lean on for guidance and strength.

NFTOS will be taking a respite to discuss our future. What transpires, I have no clue. If this is indeed the end, I'll be back for one more blog to thank both; our loyal readers and those 75 million visitors whom have visited this site.

For now, stay safe and be at peace!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING

THANK YOU FROM NFTOS

When you blog 365 days a year - now for over three years, its at times, a struggle to put one out. This would be one of those days. In the past we have posted our sites statistical analysis, which shows how many hits and readers we have had to our site to date.

Not one to brag much, oh who the hell are we kidding, in the graph below - we have had over 45.7 million hits [page views, unique visits and return visits] since April 2010.

NFTOS 3 YEAR STATS

When you think of it, holding a masters degree in engineer and not in journalism - I am just a compassionate "Damn Nazi Liberal", and to say we have had 46 million computer screens seeing our work - its humbling and mind numbing.

We at NFTOS appreciate every hit to our site whether its a fellow progressive or an American Talibaner.

We would like to thank you for visiting our page [whether you agree with us or not]. There are times when I wonder how much longer we do this, and then a right wing nut job goes to the brink, and then we no longer wonder.

Enjoy your Sunday fellow progressives, and as always, we very much are grateful for your readership.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NFTOS!

NFTOS 3 YEAR STATS

Just amazing, since 2010 we have had 41,515,549 million visitors to NFTOS.

Now three years into this, I am not sure how much longer we do this.

I started NFTOS because I was seeing two things that pissed me off greatly, one was a bunch of pasty white racist attacking my President - two, the shift from the GOP, from true conservatism to the now radical American Taliban. Our intent is/was to give factual information to the big bang stories of the moment.

I have heard from many of these 41.5 million viewers, some assholes, most great caring Americans. [Guess who the assholes where?]

While I am on the fence whether to continue with NFTOS, re-align it, or hand it down to the next fired up progressive, I can assure my readers that I have enjoyed the experience immensely! I have learned many things, things about my country, people who call themselves "patriots", and those whom claim "Christianity"! The latter two I find many who talk the talk, but those whom shall never walk the walk!

To all our loyal readers, and to the drive by readers, we thank you very much for making our site a part of your reading day!

So cheers to NFTOS on our third anniversary!

GOP, SMALL GROUPS OF SHRILL PEOPLE

Bill Maher in last nights New Rules skewers the fringe of the right - and the "Who's who of what the fuck" lunacy at CPAC.

Maher eloquently suggests that the GOP is a disproportionate influence on the American political landscape considering just how small they are.

From bestiality, to Pat Robertson, to the inconsequential NRA, Maher pierces through the bullshit that is the GOP, those special kind of stupid people that we have come to know and love.

REPUBLICAN TROLLS

REPUBLICAN TROLLS

 
Occasionally we find our NFTOS email loaded with infested crap from republican trolls. If you're somehow unfamiliar with the term, think of a troll as the drunk who pushes his way into your barroom conversation. The proverbial turd in the punchbowl, in the rather unlikely case there's a proverb out there about turds and punchbowls. You get the picture.

MADDOW:TROLLS

 

NFTOS' email trolls tend to be radical teapublicans of varying stripes, their intent is disruption. From the blunt-force troll with little to say  - that's not of the four-letter word variety to the benevolent troll who stops by to lecture everyone on the best practices of blog management. Trolls are very annoying.

But why stay annoyed when you can have fun instead? Make lemonade out of lemons readers. Trolls are an everyday reminder that someone, somewhere, disagrees with what you're saying and considers it important enough to respond to. So stand proud, progressives! They hate us. They really, really hate us.

Benevolent right-wing trolls are often as predictable as their more vulgar fellow travelers. First, they inject themselves into a debate, posing as "independent thinkers". Then they regurgitate well-worn out talking points that reveal them to be anything but nonpartisan. Once unmasked as right-wingers, the benevolent troll's saga usually ends in two ways. Neither, as you could imagine, are pretty.

Often the troll resorts to name-calling and baseless assertions, despite the fact they at first appeared to be "above the fray". Then, when confronted, they disappear completely without a peep. When confronted, they email one last jeremiad about how there's too much negativity on the site and they're leaving, never to read our blog again, because they've got better things to do. Only they brought the negativity. Only they don't have better things to do. They've decided to stop slumming and, I'm guessing, return to the Algonquin Round Table from whence they came.

While benevolent trolls are annoying, they're also rare. Most common are the blunt-force trolls, the commenter's with absolutely nothing to add. They leave intellect and proper grammar behind. All they bring is invective garbage. You could be a former member of the armed services with combat experience critiquing the current Secretary of Defense. But to them, you're a peace-loving hippie bastard with a latte in one hand and a joint in the other.

No matter who you are or what you say, you somehow fit into their image of liberalism. Pounding square pegs into round holes are their best skills, because their worldview has been so scrubbed, sanitized and simplified that even the most complex issues have been reduced to radical insane arguments.

If you're lucky, these temporary tough guys rarely metastasize into the third type of pest. Like a dope-sick junkie who can't resist any longer, relapsing trolls frequently fall off of the wagon and return to their old progressive haunts.

Let's not fool ourselves. If you're going to advocate for change, there are always going to be naysayers out there who will fight you, tooth-and-nail, to reverse that progress. Is it worth it to debate them? Absolutely, but remember to keep your eyes on the prize, not the cesspool from where your teapublican friends are slinging mud. Besides, if what you're saying is having that kind of effect among right-wingers, you've got to be doing something right.

Southern Strategy

GOP - "I can 't be a racist, my best friend is black"

We have learned of late how truly racist teapublicans are, but that's ok. Why you ask? Because "One of their Best Friends is Black".

Some of you may recognize this from the 1960s. It was the standard moderate-to-liberal White excuse that they couldn’t possibly be racist, because … “one of my best friends is Black,” or, more in keeping with the decade, “one of my best friends is a Negro.”

It’s sort of like the 2000 RNC Convention in Philadelphia, whose stage looked like a road show revival of ‘Porgy and Bess’ but when the cameras panned to the obligatory crowd reaction scenes, it was a sea of White. Or the Sarah Palin rallies in 2008, which were seas of White, excepting the poor undercover Secret Service Detail, who were the only Black men (or Black Persons) in the arena, and must have felt pretty strange. After all, Secret Service are, by nature, undercover, and being the only Black person in a suit in an entire arena of Righty-Whities - coming to listen to racially coded language has got to be a surreal experience that few have ever experienced.

Remember back when - with former CEO Herman Cain on the stage, the once “Who Wants To Be President?” Game Show, or, perhaps, “Future American Idol” - the stage is Lily-White with the exception of Herman Cain, the non-politician candidate who gets in, while the former Governor of Louisiana, Buddy Roehmer, is consistently excluded, etc.

Why? Because “some of our Best Friends are Black.”

As if that were an excuse. But even Juan Williams, the fired NPR pundit who found that serving his new master at Faux News uses the excuse. In his book tour and to this day, he maintains that his comments that Muslims make him nervous - his defense is that he was active in the Civil Rights movement and wrote a book about how Blacks have been discriminated against.

Or, absurdly, “I can’t be a racist, because some of my best friends are Black.”

I offer this as preface, because this absurdist formulation has reared its head on many occasions this teapublcian campaign season.

But there is no doubt that the GOP is not a party for “Blacks.” Sorry. Teapublicans claim, as does Herman Cain, that if Blacks merely understand their policies, then they’d overcome their “brainwashing,” and vote teapublican.

One cannot forget that the "contemporary Republican Party" was born with the Southern Strategy, winning over the former Jim Crow South to its side of the political aisle, and as a backlash against the civil rights movement. This is a formula for a politics of white grievance mongering and white victimology; a dream world where white conservatives are oppressed, their rights infringed upon by a tyrannical federal government and elite liberal media that are beholden to the interests of the “undeserving poor,” racial minorities, gays, and immigrants.

In keeping with this script in order to win over Red State America, the 2012 teapublican presidential candidates have certainly not disappointed. Both overt racism and dog whistles are delectable temptations that the teapublican presidential nominees cannot resist. With the election of the country’s first African-American president, and a United States that is less white and more diverse, the GOP is in peril. In uncertain times, you go with what you know. For the teapublican Party, this means “dirty boxing,” digging deep into the old bucket of white racism, and using the politics of fear, hostility and anxiety to win over white voters by demagogue Obama.

Racism is an assault on the common good. Racism also does the work of dividing and conquering people with common interests. While the 2012 teapublican candidates are stirring the pot of white racial anxiety, this is a means to a larger end—the destruction of the country’s social safety net, in support of vicious economic austerity policies, and protecting the kleptocrats and financiers at the expense of the working and middle classes.

The point is as clear as a crystal ball. The issue is exclusion, and when you’re as ham-handedly race-obsessed as to put up Herman Cain in as the "token Black" for all teapublicans to an almost entirely White audience, or Ali Akbar as the token Black for all (virtually all-White) Tea Partiers, you DO have a racial problem.

If you watch Faux News, you will note the astonishing profusion of Black “political strategists,” which would seem odd, given their actual proportion of the GOP political strategist class. Couldn’t be intentional “image” manipulation could it?

But you turn the outrageous tokenism inside out and it gives you the true color of the ( Southern-based) GOP’s racial obsessions. The invisible hand always leaves a footprint, and, if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.

It’s a denial of facts and a denial of reality, but then, perhaps it’s like Ayn Rand trying to convince greedy millionaires that their rapaciousness is actually moral, that they are the “Atlases” of civilization who hold the world on their mighty shoulders every time they throw a widow or an orphan into the street to get their hands on another piece of real estate.

In this case, since some of their "Best Friends are Black", they can’t possibly be racists.

Alas, accusing a teapublican in this benighted age of denial of facts is, alas, increasingly redundant.

But be careful, before you accuse me of being unfair to teapublicans, I want you to know that this is perceptibly impossible. Why you ask? Because some of my best friends are teapublicans.

VOTER FRAUD, TEAPUBLICAN STYLE

Background:
When it comes to voter fraud, teabaggers have used every book in the trade to conjure up Democratic voter fraud. Enter Andrew Breitbart and protégé James O'Keefe.

Breitbart and O'Keefe woule be the "males' in the picture

O'Keeffe and Breitbart are some of the sleaziest humans to troll the land, even to teabagger standards, these two are the crap buzzards wont even touch! If your looking for doctored videos regarding politics and Democratic organizations, than these two are your men. Here is just a short list of this dynamic duos character attacks against progressives.

Shirley Sherrod Sues Andrew Breitbart Over Video


Now the blog for the day:

The long saga of Indiana Secretary of State Charlie White (R) isn't over yet -- but it now it includes a conviction on 6 felony charges. White, the top elections official in his state, was indicted last March on charges that he lied about where he lived to remain on the voter rolls in the Fishers, IN district where he served on the city council along with other related charges. On Friday, he was convicted on 6 out of 7 felony charges and was immediately replaced by a new interim director.

The Indianapolis Star reports that the conviction may not be the end of this time at the top of the state's electoral law enforcement structure:

White, 42, Fishers, plans to ask a judge to reduce his convictions – all class D felonies – to misdemeanors at sentencing. It’s uncertain whether that move would allow him to reclaim his job.

“We don’t know the right answer to that,” White said. “This is all very new.”

Shortly after White’s verdict was read, Gov. Mitch Daniels announced in a news release shortly before 3 a.m. that he has appointed Jerry Bonnet, White’s chief deputy, as interim secretary of state.

“I have chosen not to make a permanent appointment today out of respect for the judge’s authority to lessen the verdict to a misdemeanor and reinstate the elected office holder,” the Republican governor said in the news release. “If the felony convictions are not altered, I anticipate making a permanent appointment quickly.”

But state Democrats say it's time for White to go.

“It’s obvious that Mitch Daniels will try anything to take back this fraudulent election, but there’s only one thing that should happen now: Vop Osili [the Democrat White defeat in the Sec. of State race in 2010] should become Secretary of State, and we should put the embarrassment that is Charlie White behind us," state Democratic party chair Dan Parker said in a statement.

Here's a timeline of the case from the Star.

I wonder if Brietbart and O'Keefe will do their version of "Punked" on Republican Charlie White? I would say that if we need to look at voter fraud we may want to start with those throwing the biggest stones, those being radical teapublicans. We have learned long ago that any news source coming from either Breitbart and O'Keefe should never be held as "truthful".

Words never associated with Brietbart and O'Keefe are:

accepted, accredited, acknowledged, admissible, appropriate, authorized, canonical, certain, cogent, consistent, correct, customary, fair, genuine, innocent, just, justifiable, lawful, licit, logical, natural, normal, official, on the level, on the up and up, orthodox, probable, proper, real, reasonable, received, recognized, regular, reliable, rightful, sanctioned, sensible, sound, statutory, sure, true, typical, usual, verifiable, warranted, and well-founded.

We see daily more and more hypocrisy from the radical GOP. The Charlie White and Govna Mitch Daniels fiasco just coagulates this open wound. This sore is one that needs to be healed during the November elections, and using your voice and outing this bunch of radical, lying, troglodytes is the first step in ensuring our country progresses and not regresses.

What's interesting is White knew that he was committing voter fraud but did it anyway for political power. White cheated the system—and gamed the system.

This conviction should be liberating for Hoosiers who've known since 2010 that White should never have been elected, but Indiana Democrats tell me that they will not rest until they win the fight against teapublican hypocrisy on voter fraud.

Those right of center whom are considering the actions of Charlie White, consider yourselves on notice, we are tired of the nonsense of the galactically stupid!

I leave you with the following: "Democrats need to push the rest of their agenda while their boot is on the neck of greedy poisonous old reptile"~ Bill Maher

BREAKING NEWS

SUSAN G. KOMEN Apologizes and Komen for the cure retracts past 48 hours and is now once again funding Planned Parenthood.

Thanks to readers like yourselves, your voice (we had over 200 thousand readers to this blog yesterday) was heard loud and clear, just like SOPA/PIPA reality slapped these leaders into doing the right thing - the masses of our country said, enough is enough.

Well done America, we need to keep showing radical teapublicans that we have had enough of the shit, and we are the ones taking back our country!

Official statement from Brinker, founder and CEO:

"Komen for the Cure just released the following statement from Nancy Brinker and the Susan G. Komen Board of Directors:

We want to apologize to the American public for recent decisions that cast doubt upon our commitment to our mission of saving women's lives.

The events of this week have been deeply unsettling for our supporters, partners and friends and all of us at Susan G. Komen. We have been distressed at the presumption that the changes made to our funding criteria were done for political reasons or to specifically penalize Planned Parenthood. They were not.

Our original desire was to fulfill our fiduciary duty to our donors by not funding grant applications made by organizations under investigation. We will amend the criteria to make clear that disqualifying investigations must be criminal and conclusive in nature and not political. That is what is right and fair.

Our only goal for our granting process is to support women and families in the fight against breast cancer . Amending our criteria will ensure that politics has no place in our grant process. We will continue to fund existing grants, including those of Planned Parenthood, and preserve their eligibility to apply for future grants, while maintaining the ability of our affiliates to make funding decisions that meet the needs of their communities.

It is our hope and we believe it is time for everyone involved to pause, slow down and reflect on how grants can most effectively and directly be administered without controversies that hurt the cause of women. We urge everyone who has participated in this conversation across the country over the last few days to help us move past this issue. We do not want our mission marred or affected by politics - anyone's politics.

Starting this afternoon, we will have calls with our network and key supporters to refocus our attention on our mission and get back to doing our work. We ask for the public's understanding and patience as we gather our Komen affiliates from around the country to determine how to move forward in the best interests of the women and people we serve.

We extend our deepest thanks for the outpouring of support we have received from so many in the past few days and we sincerely hope that these changes will be welcomed by those who have expressed their concern."

Susan G. Komen "United We Cave"

Susan G. Komen Foundation Caves To Radical Teabaggers

CONTROLLED FUNDING:

Under massive pressure from radical congressional teapublcicans, Komen for the Cure announced an end this week to its grants to Planned Parenthood for screening and education programs. By way of a defense, the nation's most prominent breast-cancer organization said "it had adopted new funding standards" - organizations facing investigations by local, state, or federal authorities would be cut off.

The Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation has severed its ties with Planned Parenthood? (Shaking head)

As a result, hundreds of thousands of dollars — nearly $700,000 last year alone — no longer will fund breast cancer screenings and other breast-related services for low-income and uninsured women at 19 Planned Parenthood affiliates across the country.

Komen made the decision in December, but the news didn't get out until this week. Before Komen went into lockdown mode, a spokeswoman told The Associated Press that this decision had nothing to do with the relentless pressure from anti-abortion groups that want to drive Planned Parenthood into extinction.

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

So why did an extremist anti-abortion group brag online about the funding cuts two weeks before Komen told Planned Parenthood?

For at least the past six years, the Susan G. Komen foundation and Planned Parenthood have been partnering giants in this fight for women's health.
 
The widely-held assumption has been that Komen's explanation is a thinly-veiled excuse, intended to obscure a politically-motivated decision. The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg reports that the assumptions are well grounded:

Three sources with direct knowledge of the Komen decision-making process told me that the rule was adopted in order to create an excuse to cut-off Planned Parenthood. (Komen gives out grants to roughly 2,000 organizations, and the new "no-investigations" rule applies to only one so far.)

The decision to create a rule that would cut funding to Planned Parenthood, according to these sources, was driven by the organization's new senior vice-president for public policy, Karen Handel, a former gubernatorial candidate from Georgia who is staunchly anti-abortion and who has said that since she is "pro-life, I do not support the mission of Planned Parenthood." (The Komen grants to Planned Parenthood did not pay for abortion or contraception services, only cancer detection, according to all parties involved.) [...]

Another source directly involved with Komen's management activities told me that when the organization's leaders learned of the Stearns investigation, they saw an opportunity. "The cart came before the horse in this case," said the source, who spoke to me on condition of anonymity. "The rule was created to give the board of directors the excuse to stop the funding of Planned Parenthood. It was completely arbitrary. If they hadn't come up with this particular rule, they would have come up with something else in order to separate themselves from Planned Parenthood."

Goldberg went on to say:

"that Komen's decision was so contentious within the organization that Mollie Williams, the group's top public health official, resigned in protest immediately following the Komen board's decision to cut off Planned Parenthood.

Now the Komen foundation has let the radical teapublicans relentless war on women derail this mighty force for justice.

When did misogyny become the new national past time? I find it particularly appalling when self loathing female politicians chooses to join in the fun aimed at destroying women's reproductive health care. Many members of the "Our Bodies Ourselves" generation believed this kind of oppression of women in general - poor women in particular to be the stuff reminiscent in a Dickensian nightmare. Radical teapublicans are making charities corrupt.

When you peel back the onion, reality and facts show Komen crumbled under massive pressure from the radical right!

As we speak, I am fighting cancer myself (Prostate), the Komen foundation cannot convince me that their decision to defund Planned Parenthood was not political. NFTOS and West Media will refuse to support any organization that does not trust a women to make their own decisions about their bodies and their reproductive health. Any donation we would have made to Komen will now be diverted to Planned Parenthood.

Ladies, you need to take back your reproductive rights and by doing so, insure that health care for low income women exists tomorrow.

Komen has strong links to the anti-choice movement. Its new vice president of public policy, Karen Handel, ran for governor of Georgia in 2010 on an aggressively anti-choice platform, part of which was a pledge to defund Planned Parenthood.

Komen needs to hear that we won't stand for this kind of political posturing when real lives are at stake.

Tell them to reestablish funding for Planned Parenthood now.

Post Script: Keep an eye on Washington today as Capitol Hill sources tell me that there will be some additional word from Democratic lawmakers outraged by Komen's decision.

UPDATE: 2/2/12 14:49

The Susan G. Komen Foundation, and its senior vice president of public policy, Karen Handel, who is "staunchly and unequivocally pro-life," have been getting beat up pretty bad for the blatantly political decision to stop funding cancer screen and prevention at Planned Parenthood.

It appears that yesterday, Handel signed on to the "cry me a freaking river" sentiment on Twitter that anti-choicers are gleefully expressing because nothing makes them happier than women dying of cancer if it means sticking it to the nation's biggest provider of health care to women.

However, since that sentiment didn't really lend credence to the Komen Foundation talking point that its decision wasn't political, the tweet was deleted.

But, as sharp-eyed Lisa McIntire tweeted, "This is why we take screen shots."

Karen Handel is apparently a typical teapublican and doesn't understand how the internet works. Nice try, Ms. Handel, but too late. The tweet may be gone, but your true feelings about this horrible decision is already out there, and it has been spread far and wide.

UPDATE: 2/2/12 16:40

US Democartic Senate issues letter to Komen



UPDATE: 2/2/12 18:51

The below is a trailer for a documentary coming out Friday about the "pinkification" of breast cancer. Could it be any more timely, considering the exposure of the Susan G Komen Foundation as a right-wing tool? So much information has emerged, so little time. With many thanks to those who contributed links to NFTOS via email, I'd like to suggest that we support this film, and all efforts to marginalize the Komen's foundation hijacking of women's health for right-wing causes.

Rick Tyler Carpet Bombing, Racist Style

WRITTEN BY THE GOP

Al Sharpton and Rachel Maddow had an explosively caustic argument with former Newt Gingrich spokesman Rick Tyler about the candidate's approach to race on Tuesday night, in which Tyler himself used some very dicey rhetoric about African Americans.

Both MSNBC hosts had previously excoriated Gingrich for calling POTUS the "Entertainer In Chief" and telling him to "stop singing" during his speech just after his loss in the Florida primary, saying that he was attempting to tap into racial animosity from white conservatives. Maddow took that concern directly to Tyler:

"MSNBC ought to get off this race baiting kick," he said, adding that the teapublican Party has a "proud history" of fighting for civil rights going back to the Civil War.

"I don't get it!" Tyler said. "...The Democrats have failed in the public schools with African Americans. They abort their babies, they've done nothing to lift them out of poverty." He said Gingrich was just trying to show black voters that he wasn't going to "give them a handout, tell them to live in public housing, shut up, collect a check and vote for a Democrat." He also said that he thought Sharpton would agree with him about many of these points.

Rev Al jumped in to make it clear just how little he really concurred:

"Newt Gingrich is the one who brought race up!" he said. "...He's brought race in the campaign by name. You cannot then turn around and act like Rachel or I are bringing up race."

Tyler's words are "Coded" to the very core - the epicenter of race baiting and racism!

Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news about the economy

The nature of creatures can not be changed with language. The questions asked: "Entertainer in chief, food stamp president," were racially charged phrases. People do not use those sorts of terms blithely. Gingrich and his minions are a tacit, plotting lot who choose their terms to some ends. Debating on television, feeds the energies on both sides. But most intelligent viewers know that Gingrich is appealing to redneck Southern white folks who detest an African American President and African American people.

This battle was lost before it began. The Reverend served progressives well, asserting that the Tyler's of this world be held accountable for the bullshit that they spew. I can not count the times the I have said that "freedom' of speech" guts a human worse than a fifty caliber machine gun. Freedom of speech can be a dangerous two-edged sword, especially when expatiated from the vocal chords of radical white teapublicans!

Former President Bill Clinton warned of a slippery slope from angry anti-government rhetoric to violence like that of the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, saying "the words we use really do matter."

Clinton goes on to say:

"I'm glad they're fighting over health care and everything else. Let them have at it. But I think that all you have to do is read the paper every day to see how many people there are who are deeply, deeply troubled," he said.

There's been nothing more racially divisive from a national teapublican in the past five years - than what Gingrich is doing. Gingrich, the GOP and Tyler, are offensive tubs of industrial-strength rotting vegetation.

Joan Walsh called it the teapublican id unleashed. I'd say that might start to describe it, but it's something more than that. It's as though the last 30 years of barely-veiled hate has bubbled up and is erupting like a volcano filled with the hottest, mephitic disgusting offal we've seen. They're spewing it all over the nation, because they're that frenzied to see our first African-American President fail.

A very special shout-out to Reverend Al for calling it what it is, and standing up for what's right. He was steadfast and resolved with his rapid fire responses.

Closing with a Clinton quote:

"By all means keep fighting, by all means, keep arguing," he said. "But remember, words have consequences as much as actions do, and what we advocate, commensurate with our position and responsibility, we have to take responsibility for.

ABOUT- FACE

Allen West Telling Democrats to "Leave America"

Yesterday I brought you a story on "agitators". Keynote speaker of my blog was Lt. Col Allen West (Again no relation to me). This morning West now sees his statements coming back to haunt him.

Lt. Col West is engaged in a rapid about-face, appearing both on CNN and Faux news this morning to insist that what he said is not actually what he said.

On CNN, West demanded that a skeptical host Soledad O’Brien to view the entire speech an realize that “he was simply trying to draw attention to the decline of a country” at the hands of people who hold values that are “not in concert with our constitutional republic.” “And if you can’t understand that,” he added, ” please come down to South Florida, you and I can read the Federalist Papers.” Later on Fox and Friends, West told host Steve Doocy, “I did not refer to any person leaving”:

WEST: The other thing is that I did not refer to any person leaving. If you go back and read the transcript of the message that I gave, it was about equality of achievement, it was about economic dependence, it was about enslaving the American entrepreneur’s will and spirit. That message needs to leave this country. And that was what I was referring to. And I think that anyone that sat back and looked at the entirety of that 12 minute, 45 second speech would understand that we’re talking about a contrast of visions of this country.

ABOUT-FACE VIDEO:

Looking back at the transcript as requested, it’s pretty clear that West specifically named “President Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and my dear friend, the chairman of the Democrat National Committee (Debbie Wasserman-Schultz)” to “take it to the North Pole, but get the hell out of the United States.”

Nonetheless, West has made a practice of lobbing incendiary rhetoric across the aisle and then blaming the news media for the resulting backlash. Reacting to Faux pundit Bob Beckel’s demand that West apologize, a somewhat thin-skinned West shot back, “I think Bob Beckel owes me an apology for saying that he would not refer to me as a Congressional representative nor as a lieutenant colonel, retired.”

Teapublicans don't apologize, especially Lt. Col West. They blame others for making them say the stupid things they say. It's never the fault of teapublicans to make irrational statements.

Allen West has a very different "vision," not just of this country, but of how to socially interact. He has proven, time and again, that he has a "shoot first" approach to life, unwilling or unable to be thoughtful - considering the consequences of what you say. His lack of impulse control - is not of benefit to this country in any leadership capacity.

I would tell the Lt. Col, "say what you mean and mean what you say." West is a troglodyte for saying what he said, and then to blame the media for the error of his ways - the character "two-faced" (Batman's villain) comes to mind.

Lt. Col Allen West

West suffers from that teapublican disease, hypocrite-itis - he is nasty piece of work, all this posturing about should someone apologize or not is both whiny and nauseating. Why give a foul-mouthed bomb thrower the opportunity to walk back his bombs?

Hopefully, Florida will wake up and give the Lt. Col a not so subtle hint - that he needs a less responsible and impactful job.

The Agitators

Kollwitz Kathe's "Political Agitator"

If you apply standard evolutionary theory to politics, you'd assume that teapublican politicians, as they climb up the food chain, would become more sophisticated, more intelligent and better adapted to an increasingly complex environment.

Not so, at least not here in America, where the progression from Mayor/House Speaker/Govna/Senator to POTUS is devolution at its most extreme - Want proof?

Upsetting the apple cart is the tactical blueprint for radical teas. There are many teapublican agitators in American. Hell the GOP will upset their own apple cart if it means a name on the presidential ballot this fall.

These agitators are emerging feverishly, the "Leave-Us-Alone Coalition" of property owners, anti-tax activists, gun owners, home- and private-schoolers, small business owners, religious radical conservatives who want the "government to stop interfering in their lives."

By contrast, the proponents of labor unions, government employees, progressive ideology, safe food, safe products, civil rights for all, regulation of federal markets, clean air and water, the middle class, for those whom believe in a forty hour work week, a minimum wage, Social Security, and welfare recipients - are taking hard noxious hits from these agitators.

The teapublicans have gained the support of so many by appealing to the worst instincts in human nature... greed, selfishness, arrogance, bigotry, fear, and hatred - the very things that our country has a proud legacy of rising above.

Teapublcian ideology is an air raid siren readers, not a dog whistle.

Allen West (No relation to blogger)

Alan West, a tea party-backed congressman from Florida raised questions about his mental stability with comments he made on Saturday arguing that President Obama and other top Democrats should “get the hell out of the United States of America.”

West was speaking at a meeting of Palm Beach, FL Republicans when he promoted the conspiracy theory that President Obama, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz were “enslaving the entrepreneurial will and spirit of the American people.”

Alan Keyes - "Obama the socialist"

A coat hanger apparently destroyed most of Keyes' brain, and this is why its imperative to keep abortion Safe and Legal. Proof in the pudding if you will.

 

Yes we Klan (caution language)

Sean Hannity denies a connection to a man affiliated with the KKK (Hal Turner), then admits it, then says it's not important.

Saranoya Palin 
Is it possible too have an IQ of zero? Every time Saranoya opens her mouth she proves that yes its possible.

Ann 'the man' Coulter and Dana "radical loud mouth" Loesch

Andrew Breitbart - Tea Party Agitator and pathological film editor

RNC Chair Priebus compares Obama to Captain Schettino

These low level troglodyte agitators are just plain bottom feeders, wolves in sheep clothing.

Frankly I’m disgusted with the behavior of these so called conservatives. They aren’t conservatives, they’re hypocrites. Two face, double dealing liars, labeling themselves as Americans - many of them claiming to be Christians. I call them domestic terrorists. Their behavior is both appalling and disgusting.

Congratulations Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, Ann Coulter, Michelle Malkin, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck and the rest of you right wing demagogues, if agitation was your goal, then you have won the crown jewel.

As always, the past isn't even past. It is yesterday. Get ready NFTOS readers. What occurred in South Carolina, and what is currently happening in Florida is only a prelude for what the agitators are preparing - which is to unleash more incendiary, inflammatory remarks - in hopes of wrangling up the ire of the left, and engaging the ignorance of the right. What is coming to pass will be an repugnant, indigenous ride.

Saul Alinsky, GOP Boogey Man and Newt's Beast (DEVIL)

Saul Alinsky Community Organizer

Newt "slim ball" Gingrich often pepper sprays us with ludicrous connotations of Saul Alinsky and his connection to both progressives and POTUS Obama - and there is a great reason for that.

"And I believe, if we have a big election with truly historic big choices, that we can defeat Barack Obama by a huge margin...it will be an American campaign open to every American who prefers a paycheck to food stamps, who prefers the Declaration of Independence to Saul Alinsky and who prefers a strong national security to trying to appease our enemies," said Newt Gingrich

Why do Newt and fellow teapublicans fear the Alinksy boogeyman? Because he was a civil rights activist who advocated for blacks. Just like Democrats and our POTUS.

From Wikipedia:

"After a few years, by 1939, he became less active in the labor movement and became more active in general community organizing, starting with the slums of Chicago. His early efforts to "turn scattered, voiceless discontent into a united protest aroused the admiration of Illinois governor Adlai Stevenson, who said Alinsky's aims 'most faithfully reflect our ideals of brotherhood, tolerance, charity and dignity of the individual.'"

As a result of his efforts and success at helping slum communities, he spent the next 10 years repeating his organization work across the nation, "from Kansas City and Detroit to the barrios of Southern California." By 1950 he turned his attention to the African American ghettos of Chicago, where his actions would later earn him the hatred of Mayor Richard J. Daley, although Daley would later say that "Alinsky loves Chicago the same as I do." He traveled to California at the request of the San Francisco Bay Area Presbyterian Churches to help organize the black ghetto in Oakland. Hearing of his plans, "the panic-stricken Oakland City Council promptly introduced a resolution banning him from the city."

So its clearly easy to see why the pasty white racist would make the connection to Alinksy and POTUS, as they represent the same thing, "black America", which as we know is not something  within the thinking mechanism of GOP - dom - which is, recognizing that African Americans are human too.

Wikipedia's definition goes on to say:

"Nor did he have much respect for mainstream political leaders who tried to interfere with growing black–white unity during the difficult years of the Great Depression."

A documentary was done titled "The Democratic Promise: Saul Alinsky and His Legacy," which states that "Alinsky championed new ways to organize the poor and powerless that created a backyard revolution in cities across America."

The Democratic Promise

Real Time's Bill Maher - Alinsky related video starts @ 2:23, but for entertainment watch entire clip.

Episode 235 by BillMaher1956

Lord knows how dangerous it is to empower the poor, destitute and non-whites. Every time Newt mentions Alinksy, the deep rooted racist within him is exposed - by his nasty diaphoresis laden sports jacket. When you start piecing the Gingrich puzzle together, you assemble a vile, repulsive, racist, and the Alinsky puzzle piece is a hug component to showing us how immersed and subaqueous this racist is.

Whether your issuing and approving racist hate letters, or speaking from your lectern on Saul Alinsky, a racist is a racist no matter how you try to exscind it.
