Sixteen years ago a small community in Texas was destroyed by two packs of predatory animals.
The first pack was a federal agency whose functions were in part a deliberate and explicit violation of the charter and supreme law under which the Federal Government was established.
Even under regulations in effect at the time, the BATF could have sent a couple of agents in coats and ties in a plain government issue sedan to the Branch Davidian residence and asked the federally licensed firearms dealer living there to open his place of business and records to examination. Or if they needed to place the leader of the congregation under arrest they could have taken him into custody while he was out on his morning run. Given Mr. Koresh’s past history of cooperation with local law enforcement they could have simply asked him to come down to the local sheriff’s station.
The BATF did none of the above.
Instead the BATF attempted to stage a military-style assault, code-named Operation Showtime, in order to impart a positive impression of the agency upon the socialist filth that had just moved into the White House. Never mind all the innocent women and children who could have been maimed or killed during the raid.
After the BATF goons were driven off another pack of predators, the so-called Hostage Rescue Team of the FBI, descended upon the Branch Davidians.
If it had been necessary to take the Branch Davidian residence by force a trainee platoon from the Benning School for Boys could, in accordance to their training, have entered the building and taken down any armed individuals without deliberately harming the non-combatants. Instead, the HRT, the alleged experts in hostage rescue, proceeded to terrorize the people within the residence. And when the Branch Davidians refused to surrender, they were exterminated by the HRT.
The HRT used some armored vehicles to destroy the exits from the building and to allow the ambient wind to blow through the structure while other armored vehicles injected CS gas, known to be inflammable and toxic to children and elderly persons, into the wooden structure.
And then the HRT fired incendiary devices into the building.
While the Branch Davidian residence burned to the ground on live television, HRT gunmen stationed behind the building out of sight of the TV cameras shot anyone who attempted to escape the fire from the rear of the building.
The Democrat majority in both houses of Congress were not the slightest bit appalled by the atrocity, instead of condemning the president for his actions and initiating the process of impeaching and removing President Clinton, they chose instead to condemn the victims and those who dared to speak up for them.
Given the choice of obeying the supreme law or violating the law, they chose to violate the law.
Given the choice of preserving innocent life or destroying it, they chose to destroy innocent life.
President Clinton and the Democratic Party could have obeyed the Constitution, the Supreme Law to which the President, the Congress, and the Federal Government in general were subject and stopped the terrorization and murder of the Branch Davidians, but instead chose to violate the Supreme Law.
And like a number of illiterate barbarian chieftains before him, President Clinton and his party used the murder of the Branch Davidians to demonstrate to the rest of us what would happen to anyone who refused to submit to their will. Instead of standing up for the rights and lives of Americans they chose instead to terrorize and murder Americans.
Since then the words “democrat”, and "progressive" have become in my mind synonymous with the concept “murderer.” If there is one complaint I have about President George W. Bush it is that he has done nothing during his two full terms in office to bring the perpetrators of this atrocity to justice.
Nothing. At. All.
Thank you President Bush, for nothing.
Now that the Party of Death has been given control of both the Executive and Legislative Branches of the Federal Government by a coalition of Depraved-Americans, Stupid-Americans, Ignorant-Americans, Deceased-Americans, and Imaginary-Americans we should not be surprised to see yet another demonstration of the depravity and destructive power of the new rulers and those in government and the established media who willingly serve them.
And we will have no choice but to respond in kind.
The following article was electronically published on the LIBERNET Mailing List in 1993. I'm republishing it here for the benefit of those readers who aren't read in as to why I morally condemn the Democratic Party and those who willingly support them.

Part Two.

John Bergstrom Still Doesn't Play Well With Others
Varmint on the media response to the Great American Tax Day Tea Parties:
"Anderson Cooper is the teabagger? I always had him more figured as the teabaggee. CNN's ratings are in a death spiral. the anchors are getting desperate. Rather than imitate a successful model like O'Reilly or Hannity, they are trying to be John Stewart. It's the end of journalism as a respectable profession."
-- John Bergstrom, aka Varmint.
And here I thought that the respectability of journalism ended when the Pulitzer Prize was given to one of Stalin's bitches at the New York Times.
If I may paraphrase Ayn Rand, a sexual innuendo is not an argument. Especially if it refers to a particularly absurd form of homosexual intercourse. (And no, I'm not going to explain it to you. Look it up online like I did.)
The fact that the mouthpieces for the other side have to resort to sexual innuendo or the old favorite of screaming "racism", if they bother to mention the Tea Parties at all, is a clear indication in my personal experience that they are wrong. They know that they're wrong. And they are scared.
One of the things that Rand constantly pointed out in hers works of fiction and nonfiction is that the parasite class not only is dependent on others for the material goods that they need to live, they also are dependent on others for their ideas and their sense of self worth.
Like the mentally challenged child who needs a teacher to tell them that they did a good job, the parasite leader and his circle of sycophants have a need for adulation. They need the constant adulation and praise of the masses. This is especially true when it is visibly clear that the the parasite leadership and their policies are failing.
Instead of the soothing falsehoods that leaders like The Big Zero and his inner circle mentally require, the Tea Parties are a voice of truth in sea of lies.
That frightens the parasites. The one thing they cannot tolerate is the truth. Because the truth is, they need us, we have absolutely no use for them.

Rant of the Day
Fellow Lizard "quickjustice" at LGF saw at the New York Tea Party:
What this is just another manifestation of a belief in what Ayn Rand used to call the Primacy of Consciousness, a belief that reality is not inherently real but is in some way alterable by a ruling consciousness. In this case, the Collective, which in many versions of Socialist doctrine has a distinct consciousness of its own. Some Leftists go as far as to claim that the individual perception of actual reality, which invariably contradicts the doctrines of the collectivists, is a form of false consciousness.
This explains why the Leftists have made the effort to gain control of the Mainstream Media, and why they insist on "shaping opinion" instead of simply reporting the facts. They are through the deliberate issuance of falsehoods trying to alter reality.
But reality is inherently real. Facts are facts. Or to put it in the simplest terms: A is A.
The number of votes the other side received (or in the Chicago system, claimed to received) doesn't change the fact that they are wrong. Might (or in the Chicago system, the appearance of might) is not right.
The other side is going to learn the hard way that reality is not subject to a majority vote.
What are your questions on this block of instruction?

A Response To Falsehoods Of The Day
With a tip of the hat to Glenn Reynolds I shall now quote the full text of short article from The Hill:
As usual one can tell that a Democrat is telling a lie by observing the movement of the lips. If the lips are moving (or the fingers are in contact with the keyboard) the Democrat is lying.
In the first place taking money from the more productive working people and giving it to those who don't make enough (if they work at all) to pay federal income taxes is not a tax cut. It's a bribe.
Furthermore, any attempt to increase the tax burden on corporations will only be shifted to the consumers of the goods and services sold by the corporations. In fact it is the poor, the people who have to spend their earnings right away, who bear the greatest burden of higher corporate taxes.
But there's more.
This Illinois Looter claims that the Federal Government under Die Grosse Null (The Big Zero) will somehow create millions of jobs. There is a word for that belief that I simply cannot use in polite discourse. Its a word for something usually found lying on the ground in pastures and feedlots.
The money to pay for those so-called jobs doesn't appear like loaves and fishes in a messianic miracle, it is money that is forcibly removed from real people working in the real economy that would otherwise pay for goods and services created by real workers. If the program ran at one-hundred percent efficiency, "creating" three and a half million positions in the Federal sector at the cost of three and half million jobs in the real economy, it would be wrong enough. But in reality the Federal Government has historically run at twenty-five percent efficiency, with one tax dollar in four actually reaching its intended destination. This means that for every position in the Federal apparatus that gets penciled in there will be four real workers will either lose their jobs or not be hired.
If enacted, the Obama program will result in the unemployment of about fourteen million real workers. Not only here in America, but also in other parts of the world where American taxpayers buy goods and services.
The Illinois Looter*, is also whining about how the raising of objections by the actual living and breathing citizens of our Republic is somehow detracting from the significance and honor of the actions of Die Grosse Null.
While the adoption of the Primacy of the Parasite as the fundamental moral and legal paradigm of our nation is significant. It is in no fashion honorable. In fact I am hard pressed to politely describe how utterly vile and loathsome I find the actions of President Barack Obama, the Democratic Party, and the Washington establishment in general, are in bringing about this appalling state of our national affairs**.
The Illinois Looter, who would never utter a word about the corporate and financial interests who pay off her party for favors and protection or the validity of the voter rolls in Cook County, denounces as false the concerns and anger of the actual living and breathing citizens of the American Republic.
In fact the Tea Parties are not only protesting the depraved actions of Die Grosse Null and the Federal socialist apparatus, they are also denouncing the appalling level of appeasement that was practiced by the Republican Party under the polite label of "bipartisanship." They are protesting the peonization of America that is being brought about by both factions of the Washington Establishment.
The fact of the matter is that President Barack Obama, with his arrogance, ignorance of ethics, economics, and science, and his effectively unlimited desire for adulation and power, is the living and breathing embodiment of everything that is wrong with the Democratic Party in particular and most of the Washington establishment in general.
What the Illinois Looter is in effect demanding from us actual living and breathing citizens is that we simply shut up and obey. Such behavior is typical of those who believe in the Primacy of the Parasite. The fact of the matter is that Karl Marx's magic phrase*** is nothing more than an attempt to put a happy moral face on what is the literal description of a slave labor system.
To those who willfully embrace the parasite mode of existence, power over the productive members of a population is a moral necessity. This causes the parasites to invert their moral standards and deny to others the Right of Life. It causes them to demand silence and obedience from those truly good people who are condemned to servitude, and to unleash deadly violence upon those who rightfully refuse to comply.
If we are unsuccessful in blocking the machinations of Die Grosse Null and the bipartisan Washington establishment then our children and grandchildren will be loaded down with the burden of a national debt that they simply cannot bear. We should not be surprised to see our sons and daughters marching down a street chanting, "Hell no, we don't owe!"
Nor should we be surprised when the parasites of the Washington establishment respond with violence.
I already know how I'm going to respond to their actions. How are you going to respond?****
* There's another word that I shall refrain from using today to describe the character of this female. It is a word that I usually use in reference to the wife of Benedict Arnold, who I usually refer to as, "that Tory ****." It rhymes with runt.
** Don't even get me started on foreign and defense policies.
*** You know the one: "From each according to their ability, to each according to their needs."
**** If this rant doesn't put me on the big arrest list then some affirmative action diversity hire isn't doing her job.
Rep. Jan Schakowsky (D-Ill.) blasted "tea party" protests yesterday, labeling the activities "despicable" and shameful."
"The ‘tea parties’ being held today by groups of right-wing activists, and fueled by FOX News Channel, are an effort to mislead the public about the Obama economic plan that cuts taxes for 95 percent of Americans and creates 3.5 million jobs," Schakowsky said in a statement.
"It’s despicable that right-wing Republicans would attempt to cheapen a significant, honorable moment of American history with a shameful political stunt," she added. "Not a single American household or business will be taxed at a higher rate this year. Made to look like a grassroots uprising, this is an Obama bashing party promoted by corporate interests, as well as Republican lobbyists and politicians.”
This is the strongest language to date opposing the protesters, which, according to some estimates, topped 250,000 across the country.

So Anyway, Continued
I went to the St. Paul tea party today. About 8000 people showed up.
Someone was flying a modified Soviet flag, it had the Seal of the State of Minnesota sewn into the center of it, like this:
When I was in the Army I used to tell other people that I was from the Soviet Socialist Republic of Minnesota.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled reality.

A Suggestion
I have a suggestion.
Let's just split up the stimulus funds and deposit them in the personal bank accounts of the leaders of the Democratic Party. Do it on a sliding scale to cover everyone from The Big Zero to the precinct captain level.
If we must have political corruption let us have efficient political corruption.
What are your questions on this suggestion?

Rant for the Day
Charles, our Lizardroid Master at Little Green Footballs, posted this quote:
The ideology of Eugenics was in practical effect a rejection of the evolutionary process. (And as some may argue, a rejection of the actual will of God the Creator.)
Instead of allowing human life to develop over time in accordance to a natural process (of as some would argue, the way the Creator wanted it), the Eugenicists would instead assume the role of God in the process and personally direct the development of human life themselves. The Eugenicists would determine who may or may not procreate and pass on their genes to the next generation.
In practical effect the ideology of Eugenics reduced the legal and moral status of ordinary human beings to that of livestock. It was simply another pseudoscientific attempt to justify the recreation of a master-slave society, where in this case the Eugenicists would assume the role of ranchers who would breed human beings as if they were mere cattle.
Historically, the ideology of Eugenics fell out of favor among "Progressives" in 1945 when it was discovered that someone actually tried to put it into practice.
The ideology of Eugenics was just another attempted excuse for the recreation of tyranny. But as they used to teach us at the Benning School for Boys, the maximum effective range of an excuse is zero.

So here you have Barack Obama going in and spending the money on embryonic stem cell research, and then some, fundamentally changing – remember, those great progressive doctors are the ones who brought us Eugenics. It was the progressive movement and it was science. Let’s put science truly in her place. If evolution is right, why don’t we just help out evolution? That was the idea.
— Glenn Beck

Rant of the Day
Zombie over at Little Green Footballs quoted from a rant by Leftie twit Henry Rollins:
Well I have to admit that Vanity Fair was never really on my reading list. And I will admit that English was not my favorite subject in high school. But I can say that I have more published articles on legal and moral issues in print (in THE RESISTER under the pseudonym of R. Hemmerding) than Die Grosse Null could even be bothered to contribute to the Harvard Law Review while he sat at the president's desk of it.
So in my specific case the name-calling engaged in by Rollins has no basis in reality. Furthermore, I have actually read on my own initiative the actual military and political history of the Western World and not the fantasies of frustrated tenured Marxists with delusions of mental and moral superiority.
I recognize as an unevadable fact of reality that as long as someone wishes to impose his will on another, or take something from another person by force, there will be violence. And as long as there are groups or nations that seek to impose their will on other groups or nations by force, there will be wars.
Peace, Freedom, and Security are in practical effect, the absence of predatory individuals, groups, and nations. That is to say, the absence of enemies.
(I've noticed that some people insist on not understanding this. But I digress.)
If Die Grosse Null were to actually carry out the policies that he advocates the result would not be peace, love, and happy chocolates on a national or worldwide scale, but simply more violence. With the possibility of Second Civil War here in the United States or a Third World War.
Henry Rollins' belief in his own mental and moral superiority is simply an illusion. Unfortunately it is an illusion that does not require the deliberate misuse of drugs to create.

Meanwhile, over at Vanity Fair, Henry Rollins is on a roll:"I have been reading material at conservative sites and the content contributors can’t seem to get over the fact that Britain is in love with president Obama and his wife, Michelle. There are stupid cartoons of Ms. Obama wanting to “fist bump” with Queen Elizabeth, assorted whining about the fuss P.M. Gordon Brown made over the president and the first lady. I think it really gets to these frustrated sub-literates that millions of people all over the world love Barack Obama. They remember clearly the last several years when their born-again Texan went abroad and how well all that went. Perhaps some of these mouth-breathers are reading this screed now. Hey, knuckle-dragger! Isn’t it a downer that president Obama will be received exceedingly well all over the world and perhaps help the entire planet become a more peaceful and prosperous sphere?"
Remember the days when Vanity Fair was a respectable publication?

Thought for the Day
If there is one myth that I would really like to bury, it is the myth that National Socialism is a right wing ideology, and that the NSDAP and those in the present day who seek to emulate them are right wing parties.
Quote:
President Barack Obama could repeat the above statement word for word and no one, in the usual leftist audience, or the Main Stream Media, would call him out on it.
And here are some of the planks of the 25 point program of the NSDAP:
Gosh, doesn't that sound familiar?
The myth that National Socialism is a right wing ideology basically originated in the basement of the Kremlin and has continued to be repeated by those who are embarrassed about their German ideological relatives.
Seriously, if the Left were seriously and openly called out on this they would either have to drop their beliefs or bust their collective backsides to rehabilitate Hitler and the NSDAP.
Or they would just jump up and down and call us a bunch of liars.

Quote:
"We are socialists, we are enemies of today's capitalistic economic system for the exploitation of the economically weak, with its unfair salaries, with its unseemly evaluation of a human being according to wealth and property instead of responsibility and performance, and we are all determined to destroy this system under all conditions." --Adolf Hitler
(Speech of May 1, 1927. Quoted by Toland, 1976, p. 306)
President Barack Obama could repeat the above statement word for word and no one, in the usual leftist audience, or the Main Stream Media, would call him out on it.
And here are some of the planks of the 25 point program of the NSDAP:
7. We demand that the State shall make it its primary duty to provide a livelihood for its citizens. If it should prove impossible to feed the entire population, foreign nationals (non-citizens) must be deported from the Reich.
10. It must be the first duty of every citizen to perform physical or mental work. The activities of the individual must not clash with the general interest, but must proceed within the framework of the community and be for the general good.
We demand therefore:
11. The abolition of incomes unearned by work.
The breaking of the slavery of interest
12. In view of the enormous sacrifices of life and property demanded of a nation by any war, personal enrichment from war must be regarded as a crime against the nation. We demand therefore the ruthless confiscation of all war profits.
13. We demand the nationalization of all businesses which have been formed into corporations (trusts).
14. We demand profit-sharing in large industrial enterprises.
15. We demand the extensive development of insurance for old age.
17. We demand a land reform suitable to our national requirements, the passing of a law for the expropriation of land for communal purposes without compensation; the abolition of ground rent, and the prohibition of all speculation in land.
18. We demand the ruthless prosecution of those whose activities are injurious to the common interest. Common criminals, usurers, profiteers, etc., must be punished with death, whatever their creed or race.
Gosh, doesn't that sound familiar?
The myth that National Socialism is a right wing ideology basically originated in the basement of the Kremlin and has continued to be repeated by those who are embarrassed about their German ideological relatives.
Seriously, if the Left were seriously and openly called out on this they would either have to drop their beliefs or bust their collective backsides to rehabilitate Hitler and the NSDAP.
Or they would just jump up and down and call us a bunch of liars.

Someone Else's Thought For The Day
“If the Republicans can’t break out of being the right wing party of big government, then I think you would see a third party movement in 2012,”
-- Newt Gingrich, March 31, 2009
The Republican Party needs to face up to the fact that politics as usual is no longer an option. The Republican Party has systematically compromised, appeased, and openly bought off the other side too many times. This had the effect of strengthening the other side and harming us as a nation.
It the Wiemar Republic the practice of parties making deals with each other was called cattle trading. In present day America we call this bipartisanship. And like the Germans between the wars we are now facing the rise of a totalitarian collectivist political cult with its own divinely appointed leader.
If the Republican Party doesn't clean up its act then we as rational citizens will have no choice but to start a new party if we want to peacefully make changes and restore a rational system of government.

Thought for the Day
Indoctrination in Marxism is no substitute for proper education and experience in management, in fact it has the exact opposite effect.
