The Stout Republican

“State intervention in economic production may take place only where private initiative is lacking or is insufficient, or when are at stakes the political interest of the State. This intervention may take the form of control, encouragement or direct management.” – Article 9, Labour Charter of 1927

That’s just crazy…

The Obama administration has begun serious talks about how it can change compensation practices across the financial-services industry, including at companies that did not receive federal bailout money, according to people familiar with the matter.

For those of you out of touch with semi-current events a moment to catch up:

The really-current events from the great white north,

Good news: Canadian school deputizes RA’s (research assistants to you uneducated buffoons, just practicing to fit in peeps) to police students for political correctness.

The who = Canadian Human Rights Commission

Again for those uninformed, this is not the first time you should have heard of…(insert Monty Python Spanish Inquisition music here) The CHRC. Mark Steyn, Mcleans (a Canada centric magazine you dufu-i) and of course Ezra “I reprint Muhammad cartoons” Levant.

FINALLY we have something other than silly Canadian stereotypes to laugh about…until we cry.

H/T michellemalkin.com: Aunti Zeituni Onyango — a Boston public housing resident — was an illegal alien deportation fugitive who was ordered to leave the country by an immigration judge four years ago. Despite her illegal absconder status, she not only obtained federal housing benefits, but also illegally contributed to Obama’s campaign. Obama denies knowing about her illegal status and has promised to return her donations.

Just one BIG question on this. The vetting procedure for candidates from many different agencies and all the parties only caught this now? It appears that some are more equal than others, comrade.

To the re-education camps with me!

A woman, Arien O’Connell, runs fastest time at Nike Women’s Marathon (SFrisco) but does not win! She did not start with the “elite” runners. Get used to it comrade, some runners are just more equal then others. Caveat Stupidus!

BTW she TROUNCED the more equal competition by 10 mintues 49 seconds.

Every cloud has a silver lining if you look close enough. IF the Obama/democrats win the presidential election a whole bunch of silver linings glitter and glow.

1) Obviously Americans are not racists after all. So the things “they” were wrong about list starts with the most outlandish intolerant BS being thoroughly and finally debunked as a self serving urban myth.

2) There will be no more excuses for minorities, “more cheese” for sure, but no more excuses. For those of you unaware of the meaning of the “more cheese” quote I suggest that you venture out of your idealogical left and right wing towers and know the actual peeps and how life works for the “more cheese” crowd. That is of course if you can be accepted and/or survive the trip.

Anymore suggested silver linings?

Our chilly thought police friends to the north, Canada, conservative British Columbia no less…

Tyranny of Nice: How Canada Crushes Freedom in the Name of Human Rights (And Why It Matters To Americans)” A book exposing Canada’s fall into dhimmitude as their Human Rights Commission took Mark Steyn and Maclean’s magazine to trial ultimately for, “tone”, use of “sarcasm” and “subtle intellectual arguments”. Ultimately because his accusers and the Canadian Human Rights Commission were “unable to refute statistics and facts, or to deny that the portions of the article they found most offensive were in fact chilling quotations made by radical Muslims themselves.”

The silence from most of the Canadian MSM, (hahahah I made a funny, Canadian Main Stream anything is funny don’t you think?) save the Western Standard (they will be next on the list for the Canadian HRC witch hunters eh tribunal). In their expose, The Steyn show trial they point out the obvious. Toilets will soon be facing anywhere but east in the great white north.

Take off you hosers! To SiR with love: Oh yeah I want to retire to Canada someday…NOT! Though when the transition to Islam is complete talk about conservative…I guess IF one were to submit, nah we don’t need no stinkin submission.

Thx WIKI: Astroturfing in American English is a neologism for formal public relations campaigns in politics and advertising which seek to create the impression of being spontaneous “grassroots” behavior, hence the reference to the artificial grass, AstroTurf.

The democrat dream machine caught in the smear zone again? Dream a little false grass roots dream for me…

“Sarah Palin was a member of an Anti-American separatist organization”

The NYT had to retract the claim on the 3rd of September this year. Here’s what FactCheck.org says about the claim as well.

[Sarah Palin] was never a member of the Alaskan Independence Party, a group that wants Alaskans to vote on whether they wish to secede from the United States. She’s been registered as a Republican since May 1982.

Will the MSM attack this like the blood in the water it is? NOT LIKELY… A search using google and yahoo results in much-ado about astroturf the real thing. Ah yes the stumbling herd of the economy that only moments ago no one knew anything about or what to do about it commands the headlines. Makes one wonder why the sudden interest by previously uninterested dems does it not? Oh yes the economy is very important indeed.

The O-ne/Biden sucks harder than McCain/Palin…volkswagens through garden hoses comes to mind.

Update: Moonbats just suck Daily KOS also covering astroturfing tracks! Just how stupid are these people? Nothing goes away on the net, NOTHING…

In a miracle of biblical proportions and surprise season finales, Barrack Obama was unamimously voted the American Idol. “THE AI”, women swooned and fainted, babies smiled the smile of a comfortable poop and men reconsidered their sexuality. MSM is suggesting that this is a reflection of the voters that are participating in this years primary and general elections.

And you think Simon is pissed? What about Hillary?

GoingThere

PS…hmmm do you think I can claim coinage or copyright for the use of AI in describing American Idol and likening it to the phrase Artifical Intelligence…heavy on the ARTIFICIAL…which is illustrative of BO’s popularity? Life just puts them over the plate. I step into it and swing. Is this one a whiff or is it outta here heading for da’moon?

Pyrrhic defeatists that they are, 55% of WHITE Evangelical Republicans say they will consider voting for a 3rd party candidate if the Reps and Dems choose Rudy and Hillary, respectively, as their presidential candidates. Dam abortion and gay marriage!!!

All because they want to have their religious beliefs as law. Sound Sharia-like enough for you? Many of you know the fact that the West’s system of laws and a largish share of the culture are based on and guided by Judeo-Christian beliefs. Laws and culture BASED on the J/C system of belief, not word for word and not guided on a blind path as some would or would not believe.

This is exactly why from time to time that I am tempted to vote democrat. The Evangelical Right is as moon batty as the farthest left moon bat. Only the far lefties are mostly smart enough to vote democrat (unless totally full goose bozo looney) and not to vote for the socialist candidate or Nader (remember how he was slapped down by the dems last time).

I am big on choice for abortion aka reproducive rights and when we finally get our heads on straight TBKA genetic material rights (oh for the want of an artifical womb, then we’ll really have some fun). I am also big on gay rights. Marriage? Call it what you want it will be the same thing either way. Dumb ass gays want to join the divorce lawyers support group come on down!

It is up to me to influence and defend my family and the people around me so they can make their choices as they believe…NOT religerment.

I SHALL NOT SUBMIT,

From Pablo over at PW-Pub:

Well, he’s finally about to do it. Presidential term limits are about to be eliminated. This has been predicted for years as the Constitution is shredded and the nation descends into dictatorship. This evil thug is finally appointing himself Emperor and the notion of Democracy is dead. All true patriots will weep at the death of this once proud nation.

Bush has done it! He’s burned the constitution and spat on the intentions of the founding fathers. Fascism is seeing it’s resurgance under the Bush dynasty and it’s cronies! Boogah boogah boogah!

Nah, just kidding, it’s Chavez who’s doing away with Presidential terms. Liberals can relax, and now support their favorite Socialist buddy…because if you agree with Chavez, who cares if he does what would make you crap your pantalones if Bush did it.

The removal of term limits for Mr. Chávez, which is at the heart of the proposal, is expected to be accompanied by measures circumscribing the authority of elected governors and mayors, who would be prevented from staying in power indefinitely, according to versions of the project leaked in recent weeks.

Read: I can stay in power forever, but no one else can.

As Mr. Chávez, 53, settles into his ninth year in power, images of him have become impossible to avoid here. On billboards, posters and murals, he is seen hugging children, embracing old women, chanting slogans and plugging energy-saving Cuban light bulbs into sockets.

Has there ever been a good leader who was posted propaganda posters where they hug children and old ladies? Isn’t that the first sign of bad things to come?

Still, Mr. Chávez has faced serious setbacks at home and abroad even as his approval ratings remain relatively strong in Venezuela. His decision forcing a major television network critical of him off the public airwaves triggered student protests across the country in May and June.

His men violently took over the station and shot into crowds of protestors. Outrage? Of course not…you have to break a few eggs in a socialist revolution.

Read the article, and tell me how Chavez’s actions don’t fit this definition: “a governmental system led by a dictator having complete power, forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry, commerce, etc., and emphasizing an aggressive nationalism and often racism.”
