Progressive Republican Traitors Have Spoken

By: AJ

When Paul Ryan’s budget bill failed to pass in the Senate and there were reports that five Republican Senators joined the Democrats and voted against it, it only took a few seconds to guess three of the five.

All I had to do was think of the Progressive (Socialist) Democrats who are posing as Republicans.

The two Maine(iac) Progressive Senators, Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, were at the top of my guess list and next was the Progressive Massachusetts Senator, Scott Brown.

As outlined in “MAINE MANIACS – Olympia Snowe (R) & Susan Collins (R).” here are just a few of the fascist and unconstitutional bills they’ve voted for, which is why they were at the top of my guess list:

New START Treaty
Food Takeover
Bank Takeover
$814 Billion Stimulus Bill
Cash for Clunkers
NEA Funding
DADT Repeal
Cap and Trade as part of a 2008 Senate Amendment
$15 Billion Stimulus Slush Fund
Forced Volunteerism and Child Recruitment
Sonia Sotomayor Confirmation
Elena Kagan Confirmation

Here are a couple of bills that Senator Collins voted against:

Prohibiting Earmarks
Requiring Completion of Border Fencing

Then Scott Brown’s voting record, as discussed in “SCOTT BROWN (R-MA) IS A TRAITOR”:

The New START Treaty is dangerous and constrains our ability to protect our nation. The treaty gives Russia what they want, ensures America’s vulnerability, and fails to acknowledge Russia’s alliance with countries like Iran, China, North Korea and Venezuela. Scott Brown’s failure to fully research the national security implications of the treaty as well as the Shanghai Cooperation Organization before voting to ratify the treaty are inexcusable.
Food Takeover – he voted Yes on S.510 which now gives the federal government fascist control of our food supply. Liberals and conservatives who researched this bill opposed it.
Bank Takeover – he voted Yes on HR 4173 which gives the federal government fascist control of our financial system.
Net Neutrality – he did not oppose the federal government’s fascist control of our Internet by signing the letter presented by 30 Republican Senators. Liberals and conservatives who researched Net Neutrality oppose it.
Gay Marriage as a Constitutional Amendment – he voted Yes on S.2220 in 2007 despite all of the laws already enacted to grant gay couples the same, if not more opportunities and protections than straight couples. With only five State Senators supporting this in 2007, the bill failed to pass.
$15 Billion Slush Fund – he voted Yes on HR 2847 which gave Obama another $15 Billion Stimulus for his special interest union pals. Under the guise of an infrastructure “Jobs Bill,” unemployment has risen since its passage on March 17, 2010 and Obama admitted publicly that there are no shovel ready jobs.

Alaskan Senator Lisa Murkowski was the fourth Republican to vote against fiscal sanity for our country. The fifth Republican Senator who voted against it – Rand Paul – really surprised me. After a little research, I learned that he voted against it because he submitted a budget bill of his own that would yield even deeper cuts to the out-of-control spending in Washington. So Rand Paul’s vote was completely understandable, but if it had been a deciding vote, he would be toast in my book.

The Progressives (Socialist Democrats) framed the debate over Paul Ryan’s budget bill as “killing Granny” by using the old “Medi-scare” propaganda.

Through Obamacare, the Socialist Democrats, including Obama and his administration, are cutting half a Trillion dollars out of Medicare. They’re robbing Medicare to cover the cost of the massive bureaucracy and data-collection effort (to invade our privacy) required by Obamacare. Also, they need money to cover the cost of a 15-person panel of un-elected bureaucrats who will decide if Granny and Gramps can have the treatment they need.

Could this be the “death panels” Sarah Palin talked about? You Betcha!

Good luck Granny and Gramps… Your chance of getting what you need through Obama’s 15-person panel is slim to null and anyone paying attention to the facts knows this is true.

Claiming the Republicans are doing what the Socialist Democrats are actually doing is the typical propaganda strategy we’ve been seeing for many years. Why have the Socialist Democrats stuck with it? Because, unfortunately, it works.

It’s heartbreaking that many Americans are so uninformed that they actually believe the left-stream media and the lying Socialist Democrats.

As long as Obamacare remains the law of the land, Americans will suffer from its regulatory governance. Once it’s fully implemented, Americans will finally understand how dangerous it truly is.

Back to the rest of the Republican budget bill… the choice was clear. Do we allow Obama and the Socialist Democrats to continue to spend us into oblivion, collapse our economy, usher in a global currency, a Socialist re-distributive system of “global governance” under a totalitarian communistic regime, and cede America’s sovereignty to the New World Order – which Obama, George Soros and the United Nations (UN) openly talk about?

Or do we support the Republican plan to cut the out-of-control government spending in order to right the ship and steer us toward reviving our collapsing economy and our free market system?

Senators in the Socialist Democrat-controlled Senate voted to stand on the side of Obama and elected officials who want to collapse our economy, destroy our way of life and institute tyranny. (If you thought being molested by the TSA was bad, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet!)

Now that we’ve heard from the traitorous Senators we elected, let’s hear from you. Where do you stand?

The choice is clear. Do you stand with the Socialist Democrats who intend to change life as we know it by transforming it into the oppressive and failed systems other countries have tried? For people who don’t think it’ll be worse, consider this question… What do you think Obama means when he says everyone has to participate in “shared sacrifice”? Do you honestly think he means everyone but you?

47% of Americans who don’t pay any taxes and those who receive government assistance should be extremely concerned if the Socialist Democrats are successful. What they’re doing guarantees that you will have to participate in the “shared sacrifice” (you will have to work and pay taxes to feed the government beast), and your checks and debit cards will stop flowing. No doubt about it.

However, if you stand on the side of cutting the massive, unsustainable Washington spending, you stand with America and all that has made her the greatest, most prosperous and giving nation on the planet.

Where do you stand?

Left West, Right West, and Other Matters of Balance

By: Jim O’Neill
Gulag Bound

“I’m up on the tightrope, one side’s hate and one is hope
But the top-hat on my head is all you see….
I’m up on the tightwire, linked by life and the funeral pyre
Putting on a show for you to see”
– Leon Russell “Tight Rope”

Cornel West

One-time Obama supporter and Princeton professor, Cornel West, has come under scathing attacks by the liberal media for daring to criticize Obama. They do so hate it when one of their own strays too far from the “plantation.” Let me say to Mr. West — “Welcome to the party, pal.” Link Link

Calling Obama ““a black mascot of Wall Street oligarchs, and…puppet of corporate plutocrats,” as West has done, is no way to endear yourself to the liberal’s vast PM (Propaganda Machine), but it is certainly a good way to invite a liberal “smack-down.” Link Link

Cornel West and I do not often see eye to eye on issues, but in his assessment of Obama as a front-man for an international cabal of corporate gangsters and banking crooks, we agree. West probably believed that Obama was a committed communist, whereas Obama’s MO actually has more in common with Nazi fascism. In any event, it’s all about enriching political/social elites, and the people be d–ned. “Power to the people” my butt. Link

(Sidebar: I don’t know that it can be repeated often enough that fascism (including Nazism) is a left-wing doctrine all the way. Yes, a case can be made that fascism is to the right of communism, but they are both still Far Left, top down, big government doctrines.

Mussolini’s famous statement “Tutto nello Stato, niente al di fuori dello Stato, nulla contro lo Stato” basically translates as “Everything inside the government (State). Nothing outside the government. Nothing against the government.”

Benito Mussolini, who popularized fascism [from the Italian fasci — bundles or groups], and coined the term “totalitarianism,” was fed Marxist propaganda along with mother’s milk. It is also worth noting that the Far Left’s [both communist and fascist brands] collusion with Islam is nothing new). Link Link

It has been a long time coming, but a number of liberal idealists who thought that Obama was their savior, are waking up to the real world — and not liking what they see. They had best wake up quickly; for as the late KGB defector, Yuri Bezmenov, said back in the 1980s, “You can get popular…and filthy rich…for criticizing [America]; [but] in the future such people will be squashed like cockroaches. Nobody is going to pay them nothing for their beautiful, noble ideas of equality.” Link

Whether or not such “useful idiots” (poleznye idioty) can wash their minds clear of the skewed vision impressed by Far Left ideology, and the crap-colored view of Critical Theory, is anyone’s guess. The putrid image that Critical Theory gives of Western civilization, or the USA, or indeed anything put under its myopic, negatively distorted lens, can be hard to wipe clean. Nobody and no thing — be it a person, or a nation — can come out looking good after being the focus of such virulent, unmitigated nitpicking. Link

Cornel West is, of course, not the only black person to become disenchanted with Obama. An increasing number of blacks are realizing that the Democratic Machine has been keeping the blacks down and “in their place,” in a way that Simon Legree would have been proud of. That is not to say that I would advise cruising through certain neighborhoods with your windows down, and your stereo blasting J-Thug’s rap song “F–k You Obama.” Things haven’t changed that much. Link

It was no fluke that the late Senator Byrd (D-WV) was able to smoothly segue from the KKK into the Democratic Party — after all, liberal icon, Democratic President Woodrow Wilson, was largely responsible for resuscitating, and reinvigorating, an anemic Ku Klux Klan. The story of how the racist Jim Crow Democrats morphed into purveyors of poisonous entitlement slavery is no doubt an interesting one, but not something we’ll be delving into in this article. Link Link

Speaking of segues, I would like to discuss another West; a man that I truly admire and respect — Rep. Allen West (R-FL). Allen West does not share much with Cornel West — both are black, and neither of them are especially fond of Obama, and that’s about it. Last month on Laura Ingraham’s program, Allen West said that Obama had “a third world dictator-like arrogance,” and that he was increasingly of the opinion that a community organizer “is nothing but a low-level socialist agitator.”

Not “fighting words” exactly, but not sweet nothings in the ear either. Allen West knows how to say things diplomatically — I suppose that’s a good thing. One hopes that the freshman Congressman can hold his own against the nest of traitorous vipers he has landed among. “We the people” will have need for him and his ilk in the future (would that there were more of them). Link

All of which brings me to the main point of this article: that America is dangerously, terribly out of balance. A sane, sensible patriot like Allen West can only appear to be Far Right, in a country that is teetering way to the Left. “We the people” need to find our balance again, and we need to reclaim our conscience as a nation.

The conscience is iconically depicted in cartoons as a little angel and devil sitting on opposite shoulders, whispering in our ears. The angel giving good, if often unwanted, unheeded advice, while the devil whispers to our baser natures, telling us to give in to temptation, take the easy way out, cheat a little, lie a little — die a little.

A nation, like a person, has a personality, and America’s has been warped and unbalanced by listening for too long to the false promises of its lower nature. Such insidious venom will slowly kill the spirit of a nation, as surely as it will kill the spirit of an individual. Link

The “Egos on Parade” show in Washington DC is nauseating to watch, but as despicable as the display of lack of character and principle is, the deplorable flaunting of corruption and greed is even worse. Like spoiled children, they strut and fret their hour upon the stage, convinced that their ephemeral titles and trappings are something to be proud of. They are not. They are less than trinkets and mist in the light of eternity.

This life is about so much more than this life. It is about refining and strengthening our souls; about building character and valor, about after “having done all, to stand” — and stand we must, and stand we will.

“We the people” are engaged in a war. Whether we win or lose is not for us to decide, we only control whether our cause is just and honorable, and how well we fight. And, if I may put it simplistically, it is on that scale we will be judged — not on whether we won or lost, and certainly not on how many earthly honors we acquired, or how much “stuff” we briefly clutched while passing through.

They who choose the way of corruption and darkness have their path laid before them, and their end is certain. We who choose the light and spirit, would do well to “walk as children of light,” and open our hearts to God’s power, poise, and guidance. “Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve.” The time is upon us. Link

“You’re gonna have to serve somebody, yes indeed
You’re gonna have to serve somebody
Well, it may be the devil or it may be the Lord
But you’re gonna have to serve somebody”
– Bob Dylan “Gotta Serve Somebody” Link

Socialists Confer in Los Angeles

By: Trevor Loudon
New Zeal

On May 21, the Marxist-Leninist Party for Socialism and Liberation hosted a Southern California Regional Socialism Conference at Los Angeles City College. Over 200 students, labor organizers, teachers, veterans, workers and others attended. The event’s theme was “Organize and Fight Back.”

From Liberation:

The “multinational and working-class community college matched the character of the attendees”, who came from various backgrounds and from all over the region: Los Angeles, Long Beach, even as far as Victorville, San Diego and San Francisco.

The day began with an opening plenary entitled, “The people rise up: Egypt, Wisconsin, Los Angeles.” PSL member Muna Coobtee started the conference by pointing out that, “The root problem that causes misery for workers from here in Los Angeles to Ramallah is the dominant system in the world today—capitalism.”

Coobtee went on to frame the conference as being “grounded in the understanding that another world is not only possible, but inevitable. We believe that the only solution to the deepening crisis of capitalism is the socialist transformation of society.”

She explained, “Our optimism comes from scientific understanding of society, social movements and social change. … Our optimism comes from the heroic struggle of workers in Wisconsin. Hundreds of thousands of workers and their supporters stood up to the rich and powerful when they were faced with a union busting law. It was a small window into the power that we have as a working class.”

Other speakers discussed the mobilization of teachers and students against tuition hikes and massive teacher and faculty layoffs, the need to stand against racism and LGBT bigotry, the importance of labor unions to workers, and the significance of the people’s uprisings from Wisconsin to the Arab World.

Guest speaker, Juan Jose Gutierrez, coordinator of the Full Rights for Immigrants Coalition, spoke about the importance of the immigrant rights movement and the significant role played by immigrant workers within the working class.

Keynote speaker Richard Becker, author of Palestine, Israel and the U.S. Empire, discussed why socialism is the only answer to exploitation, racism, imperialist war and environmental degradation. Becker presented the audience with the ultimatum faced by the working class today: either continue with an increasingly destructive capitalist system that threatens our very existence as a species or fight for a socialist reorganization of society.

PSL candidate member, Eman Khaleq, spoke about why she joined the PSL, citing her family’s experience of struggle after the loss of her father, who had been the primary wage earner for her family. Khaleq said, “Ever since the day I lost my father I have come to the realization that my life has become one of struggle. Being Palestinian, I’m illegal in my own country, which has allowed me to sympathize with undocumented immigrants, who are called ‘illegal’ here. Being a woman, I face being objectified, having to live up to a chauvinistic standard that capitalism generates. Being Muslim, I’m subjected to prejudice based on the need for imperialist powers to demonize a certain group of people in order to feed their own greed. Most importantly though, I’m a worker, just like my father.”

Khaleq closed by saying, “I joined the PSL because conventional politics, the way they have been, no longer works. We will no longer sit under a capitalist bi-partisan government and wait for our chance at the dream. Instead we will fight until we achieve revolutionary change!”

Attendees participated in various workshops throughout the day. There were educational workshops on the ongoing Arab uprisings and the basic myths and facts about socialism. One educational workshop titled, “Socialism and Latin America” was conducted in Spanish by the PSL’s Spanish Language Department, showing the expanding reach of the party’s work to Latino workers. Another workshop focused on organizing strategies in the movement against budget cuts, featuring union teachers, students and guest speaker Angela Bartolome of AF3IRM. A lively panel discussed organizing against the repressive police.

There was also a special workshop titled, “Cultural Revolution: Creating People’s Art and Media,” led by filmmaker Travis Wilkerson and PSL member Abel Macias. The workshop focused on the need for the working class and revolutionaries to take art out of the hands of the bourgeoisie and wield it for the purposes of revolutionary change, rather than elitism, individualism, and profit-motive.

The theme of the closing plenary was, “Socialism: The only alternative to capitalism.” It emphasized the need to organize and build a revolutionary movement in the United States that can create real equality and end the systemic war, racism and exploitation that the working class faces under capitalism…

The successful conference ended with a chant that embodied the fighting spirit of those in attendance and promoted working class unity and struggle, “Capitalists say get back: We say fight back!”

It is worth remembering that the PSL is only of one of a dozen major Marxist organizartions currently active in the US.

“Once Upon A Time In The West” – A Blog Recommendation

By: Trevor Loudon
New Zeal

One of my all time favorite blogs is Canadian based website, Once Upon A Time In The West.

Based (like New Zeal) on the premise that communism never died, OUATITW offers great coverage of the resurgent international communist movement and its appendages Islamo- terrorism, narco- terrorism, Latin American socialism and politically connected organized crime.

In my view, Russia, China, Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, Syria, Nicaragua, Vietnam, North Korea, Brazil, South Africa and countless other nations, many proclaiming friendship with the West, are all working hand in glove to destroy what is left of the free world.

Most Westerners can see threats to their liberties from their own governments. Serious as those threats undoubtedly are, they can be overcome by concerted effort by patriotic citizens.

What we all must wake up to however, is the fact that the West is now under far more danger from external enemies – led by Russia and China, than we ever were in the deepest, darkest days of the “Cold War.”

Given the chance, (and they most certainly are) this “evil axis” will bring our civilization to its knees.

OUATITW is one of the very few blogs in the world to tell it like it really is. Their articles are very well documented and they have a huge reserve of columns and documents, invaluable to any serious student of security matters.

Read Once Upon A Time In The West. Add it to your blog roll. Recommend it to your friends. Send them some money.

Help keep the flag of freedom flying.

Is the U.S. Losing its Culture to Islam?

By: Trevor Loudon
New Zeal

This absolutely must-see video, which was produced by Americans for Peace and Tolerance and the Tennessee Freedom Coalition, concerns the encroachment of radical Islam in Tennessee. It debuted last week in Nashville and was featured during Thursday night’s event along with Geert Wilders and other speakers.

The film reveals the infiltration of local institutions by Muslim Brotherhood front groups, “exposing radical Islamist preachers in Nashville, TN who were accepted by the city leadership and the media as ‘moderates,’ indoctrinating Vanderbilt University students and Nashville mosque members with extremist anti-American views.”

This documentary is only sixteen minutes long, but it is excellently produced and I highly recommend that you watch it – hear first hand from patriots on the ground in Nashville – and then pass on this important video to your friends and fellow patriots.
