....But if done right, it's funny as hell! Check out some of my masterpieces as I torment the putzes at Moveon.Org!
(No, I wouldn't ike it if it were done on my personal blog, or my blog at Townhall. I'd swear an Oath of Revenge if it were done at Free Republic. However, I've come to the conclusion that liberals aren't human. They're simply $oros-bots programmed to smoke weed, refuse to work, and demand that others pay their way in life.)
Before we get started, an explanation is in order here. I started this rampage about a month ago when I noticed that the dorks at Moveon didn't care that Chairman Obama attacked Libya for no damn reason. So, I decided to do the protesting for them with my tagline "NO BLOOD FOR EU OIL!" that appears at the end of everyone of my posts. It enrages the libs and I hear that's a good thing. Also, I won't correct their spelling or grammatical mistakes. When studying animals, it's best to study them in their natural habitat. Without further ado....

Lib: The sad thing is, you really believe the delusion that your money is yours.
Every dollar in your pocket is owed to someone for something. You have rent/mortgage payments to make, or property taxes to pay if you own your home outright. Car payments, unless you own your car outright, in which case again property tax, or if you use public transit, which means paying the fee to ride.
You have to buy food, you have to pay for electricity, you have to pay for your internet service... the list goes on. Every penny you make is little more than a marker of a debt shifting, a placeholder waiting to go to it's next owner, who will then have to transfer it to someone else, and so on.
Our money isn't ours. Our money belongs to everyone we owe it to, just like their money belongs to everyone they owe it to, ad infinitum. You can hoard money for years, but eventually it will find it's way to someone, to pay for something. Whether in the end it's pay for your coffin when you die or passed to your children as an inheritance, your money is eternally transient.
Even if you don't EVER spend your money, if it just sits and sits, what do you have? A bunch of paper that isn't worth jack-all unless you give it to someone else.
Money is just another illusion put in place to make us believe we really have any individual power within the free market system.
Me: Why are you libs so long-winded ?
Here's your incoherent rambling broken down to a single quote:
“The theory of Communism may be summed up in one sentence: Abolish all private property”----Karl Marx
NO BLOOD FOR EU OIL!
Lib (Missing the point entirely): Nice job throwing out a red herring and complaining about "long-windedness". Did I make your head hurt with too many words?
For the record, I never said get rid of private property. But the notion that somehow your money is yours, when it basically always has to go somewhere one way or another, is preposterous.
[Don'tcha just love it when a lib contradicts herself in the middle of a nonsensical rant ?]
Kind of like you.

Lib: What about the thousands of Islamic citizens and legal immigrants that were discriminated against when deported from the USA after 9/11 without any trial? Also, I have heard from the mouths of men and women in the military that when they would detain a Muslim Adversary, they loved nothing more than to make that person shake with fear, through endless beatings, torture, and non stop sleep deprivation. By the way, what about the Christian terrorists that I have heard about? They exist. Look ar the abortion clinic bombers. Also, do you even know how all of these terrorists even got started. When the USSR invaded Afghanistan, our CIA gave those Afghan defenders weapons and cash. Those fighters later went on to split up into the Islamic terrorist groups that we know today. The USA has blood on its hands from many different scenarios. Just look at what happened in Guatemala in 1950. We triggered a genocide by overthrowing their government to get farm land for companies like Tropicana. By the way, the war you fought in was a falsely justified war for oil. If you don't believe me. try looking at a source other than Fox News.
[Note how the lib completely ignores Chairman Obama's Libyan Adventure.]
Me: What American citizens were being torured for being Muslim ?
The only time in recent memory that Americans were rounded up do to ehnicity was during the reign of Franklin Dictator Roosevelt, who just happened to be a Dim.
Was your history teacher fighting for her collective bargaining "rights" instead of teaching ?

Enough Already! Enough!
Yesterday, Reuters reported that in Action Comics #900, Superman is mulling over renouncing his American citizenship and becoming a citizen of the world. Last year, Archie Comics announced that there would be an openly gay character hanging out in Riverdale. Last season, the NFL had players wearing pink gloves and cleats to bring awareness to breast cancer.
I hate to sound all unpoliticalcorrectthink, but I am sick and damn tired of being preached to when all I want to do is enjoy myself.
I know, I know, I'm selfish, I'm heartless, blah, blah, blah, yadda, yadda, yadda. Yes, I know there are problems in this world. Got it. But does the world's problems have to be advertised in every medium ? Why can't I read a comic book without being preached to about social justice or the flaws of American foreign policy ? Why can't my kid read an Archie comic book without being preached to about equality for homosexuals ? Why can't I watch the Miami Dolphins embarrass themselves without being reminded of the horrors of breast cancer ?
Here's a news flash for DC Comics, Archie Comics, and the NFL: (And this goes double for the bougerois socialists in Hollywood) We The People want to be entertained. We don't want or need to be preached to every waking moment. If the entertainment industry would stop being so self-righteous for a second, it would realize that there is genuine suffering in this world and once in a while, We The People deserve a break from it. It's not too much to ask, is it ?
God help us all.

George $oros: Not Just A Nazi Collaborator....
The most dangerous man in the world isn't Osama bin Laden, Al-Qaeda's lead singer. The most dangerous man in the world isn't Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Iran's nutjob dictator. Even our incompetent Dear Leader, Barack Hussein Obama, who controls the nuclear arsenal of the United States, isn't as dangerous as this man. The most dangerous man in the world is George $oros, Socialist Sugar Daddy Supreme.
Yes, I know. I'm a conspiracy theorist, I'm mourning the loss of the Glenn Beck show on FOX News, my tinfoil hat is too tight, I shouldn't skip my meds, blah, blah, blah, yadda, yadda, yadda. I got it. I know that there will be those who are too drunk on either Kool-Aid or Haterade to understand what I am about to tell them. That's fine. I don't care. The truth must be told, consequences and criticism be damned.
To illustrate the danger that is George $oros, I'm going to use what I like to call "$oros Chains of Oppression". Here's an example:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$oros ===> phony "charitable" organization ===> socialist organization ===> America has a serious problem
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let's take a look at the most dangerous $oros Chain of Oppression, shall we ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
$oros ===> Tides Foundation ===> Code Pinko ===> al-Qaeda, Muslim Brotherhood ===> The United States abandons ally Hosni Mubarak in Egypt ===> United States involved in a third war
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is it me or are there pink finger prints all over the unrest in the Middle East ? If you haven't noticed, Code Pinko has gone from annoying antiwar protestors to Middle East agitators. They have tried to run roughshod over the Israeli blockade of Gaza. They played a role in bringing down Hosni Mubarak in Egypt. The Pink Menace is also in Libya. There's even reports that they have brought their malign influence to Yemen, a dump on the Saudi Arabian peninsula that needs no help in becoming bat-poop crazy. Check this out:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The group behind the Gaza flotilla that engaged in deadly clashes with Israeli commandos today counts among its top supporters the friends and associates of President Barack Obama, namely the founders of the Weather Underground terrorist organization, William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn, as well as Jodie Evans, the leader of the radical activist organization Code Pink."

"After several cancelled flights, I am finally on my way to Egypt to join my CODEPINK colleagues who are already there.

"Fresh on the heels of their Hamas-protected trip to Gaza, the so-called feminist, American antiwar group Code Pink, co-founded by top Obama funder Jodie Evans, is running banner advertisements on the English language version of the official Web site of a terrorist sympathizing group, the Muslim Brotherhood, one of which invites the Muslim Brotherhood to 'join us in cleansing our country.'
The ad, titled 'Arrest the War Criminals' with a subhead that contains the invitation to 'join us in cleansing our country' links back to a Code Pink site that calls for the kidnapping of former President George W.

LARGE DELEGATION—MOSTLY AMERICANS--LEAVES CAIRO FOR GAZA;
LAUNCH CAMPAIGN URGING OBAMA TO VISIT GAZA DURING HIS TRIP TO EGYPT NEXT WEEK
When: Friday, May 29, 2009, 9am
Where: parking lot next to the Saudi Arabian Airlines office on Qasr Nile Street, near the Nile Hilton Hotel, CAIRO
With the upcoming visit of President Obama to Cairo on June 4, a 66-person delegation, including Americans from 18 states, leaves Cairo on May 29 for the Gaza Strip. The group of peace activists, bringing toys and building playgrounds for the traumatized children of Gaza, has launched an international petition calling on Obama to visit Gaza and see the destruction for himself. They will return to Cairo on June 4 in time to deliver to the U.S. Embassy the petition asking Obama to visit the war-torn region and to push Israel and Egypt to open the borders.
“We think if President Obama is serious about being even-handed and reversing our country’s past favoritism towards Israel then he should visit Gaza himself,” says Medea Benjamin, co-founder of the peace group CODEPINK that organized the delegation. “We’re sure that if he saw and heard about the suffering personally, he would put the required pressure on the governments of both Israel and Egypt to open the borders now.”
CODEPINK is calling on concerned citizens everywhere to sign its petition to President Obama by visiting http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/424/t/8834/petition.jsp?petition_KEY=1837.
They will deliver the signatures to the U.S. Embassy during Obama’s visit, and hold a rally calling on the U.S. to stop funding Israeli war crimes. “If President Obama can, at the last minute, add a visit to Saudi Arabia to have a private dinner with the King, then he certainly can go to Gaza,” said Col. Ann Wright, co-leader of the delegation and a retired U.S. Army colonel and a former U.S. diplomat who resigned in 2003 in opposition to the Iraq war.
CODEPINK, a women-led peace group, has led several delegations to Gaza to witness, firsthand, the devastation caused by the 22 day Israeli military attack on the Gaza Strip that began in December, 2008. The group is particularly concerned about the children of Gaza, who make up more than half of the population. Approximately 400 children were killed during the 22 day attack and an estimated 1,346 Gazan children were left without one or both of their parents as a result of the recent Israeli assault. The majority of the children in Gaza were traumatized by the attack and invasion.
The international delegation, which will enter Gaza at the invitation of the United Nations Relief & Works Agency (UNRWA), will visit with social service agencies that care for children, deliver sports equipment and toys to schools, and build three playgrounds.

[Just so you know, the above is directly from the Muslim Brotherhood's website.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In case you didn't know, the Muslim Brotherhood is very, very dangerous.They aren't "secular" like the Clown Prince of National Security James Clapper would have you believe. They're terrorists on par with Hamas, Hezbollah, and al-Qaeda. As Discover the Networks points out:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"MB [The Muslim Brotherhood] re-emerged somewhat under Anwar Sadat, a sympathizer of the group, when he became Egypt's president in 1970. Taking advantage of the Brotherhood’s militant aversion to secularism, Sadat sponsored the organization against his communist and socialist political opposition. Later, however, MB joined the political Left in opposing Sadat’s peace treaty with Israel, believing the normalization of relations with the Jewish State to be a betrayal of Islam.
Sadat was assassinated in October 1981, after a fatwa (religious edict) calling for his death had been issued by Omar Abdel-Rahman, the Islamic Group leader who despised Sadat for having struck a bargain with Israel. The assassination was planned jointly by MB and the Islamic Group.
In 1987, MB allied itself with the Labor Party and the socialist-liberal al-Ahrar Party to form the "Islamic Alliance," a coalition that won 65 seats in Egypt's parliamentary elections.
In 1995, Mustafa Mashhur, who would head MB in Egypt from 1996-2002, published Jihad Is the Way, the last of a five-volume work titled The Laws of Da’wa. Jihad Is the Way detailed MB's determination to advance Islam's global conquest, to reestablish an Islamic Caliphate, and to infuse all Muslims with a sense of duty to wage jihad against Israel. Masshur said that MB differed from al Qaeda only in its tactics, not in its goals. Among his book's quotes were the following:
•'The Islamic ummah [the supranational community of Muslims] can regain its power and be liberated and assume its rightful position which was intended by Allah, as the most exalted nation among men, as the leaders of humanity.'
•'Know your status [as Muslims], and believe firmly that you are the masters of the world, even if your enemies desire your degradation.'
•'One should know that it is not necessary that the Muslims repel every attack or damage caused by the enemies of Allah immediately, but [only] when ability and the circumstances are fit to it.' (This passage counseled Muslims to wage jihad only when conditions were ripe, and not sooner.)
•'It should be known that jihad and preparation towards jihad are not only for the purpose of fending off assaults and attacks of Allah’s enemies from Muslims, but are also for the purpose of realizing the great task of establishing an Islamic state and strengthening the religion and spreading it around the world.'
•'Jihad for Allah is not limited to the specific region of the Islamic countries, since the Muslim homeland is one and is not divided, and the banner of Jihad has already been raised in some of its parts, and shall continue to be raised, with the help of Allah, until every inch of the land of Islam will be liberated, and the State of Islam established.'
•'Honorable brothers have achieved shahada [martyrdom] on the soil of beloved Palestine, during the years ’47 and ’48, in their jihad against the criminal, thieving, gangs of Zion.'

That's as scary as Joyless Behar in the morning before she's had a chance to "put on her face", right ? Well, you ain't seen nothin' yet! If you'll recall, (assuming your head hasn't exploded yet) Code Pinko is also involved in tossing Mommar Qadaffi Duck out of power in Libya. (Along with the Armed Forces of the United States.) What a cowinky-dink! So is al-Qaeda! (of 9/11 fame) Even the HuffingtonandPuffington Post knows that:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Today, there is little doubt that eastern Libya, like other parts of the Arab world, is experiencing a genuine burst of anti-totalitarian fervor, expressed in demands for political freedom and economic reforms. But there also is a dark history to eastern Libya, which is the home of the Islamic Libyan Fighting Group, an anti-Gaddafi organization officially designated by the State Department as a terrorist organization.
The group was founded by Libyan mujahideen returning in the mid-1990s from Afghanistan, where they had gone to fight the Soviets’ Red Army. Building on a radical Islamist credo, they organized to fight the secular corruption of the Gaddafi regime. In 1996 they nearly succeeded in assassinating Gaddafi by attacking his motorcade with either a bomb or a rocket-propelled grenade which missed its target. The attack led to a severe crackdown by the regime. Many were imprisoned or disappeared, but the CIA still regards the group as one of the many franchises of al Qaeda, including al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, which operates in Yemen, and al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, which is active in Algeria and elsewhere in North Africa.
Eastern Libya has been described by U.S. diplomats as a breeding ground for Islamist extremism. In diplomatic cables released by Wikileaks, the region’s young men were said to have 'nothing to lose' by resorting to violence. Sermons in the local mosques are “laced with phraseology urging worshippers to support jihad," one diplomat reported.
U.S. officials declined to discuss the make-up of the anti-Gaddafi forces in eastern Libya, and U.S. intelligence agencies declined to comment publicly."

Take a wild guess who's helping to fund Code Pinko's jihad.....C'mon, you can do it...Your answer ? Correct-a-mundo! It's Adolf and Eva's love child, George $oros and his disgusting minions at the Tides Foundation! http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/groupProfile.asp?grpid=6149

It isn't just Furious George who funds the Tides Foundation. We The People also fund the Tides Foundation:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The Tides Foundation and Tides Center also receive grants from the U.S. federal government. Between 1997 and 2001, these grants included the following: $395,219 from the Department of Interior; $3,350,431 from the Environmental Protection Agency; $3,487,040 from the Department of Housing and Urban Development; $208,878 from the Department of Agriculture; $39,550 from the Department of Energy; $93,500 from the Small Business Administration; $10,986 from the Department of Health and Human Services; and $84,520 from the Centers for Disease Control U.S. Agency for International Development."

Arrogant and lazy lamestream media....yoo-hoo....anyone home ? How about you, Janet "From Another Planet" Napolitano ? Do you think the Department of Homeland Security can get off of their duffs and start investigating this instead of writing useless reports about the "dangers" of Right Wing "Extremism" ? How about you, Darrell Issa and Peter King ? You gentlemen want to investigate everything under the sun, right ? Why not this outrage ? I'd ask the Department of Injustice and Eric (Steadman) Holder to investigate, but I'd be wasting my breath.

LARGE DELEGATION—MOSTLY AMERICANS--LEAVES CAIRO FOR GAZA;
LAUNCH CAMPAIGN URGING OBAMA TO VISIT GAZA DURING HIS TRIP TO EGYPT NEXT WEEK
When: Friday, May 29, 2009, 9am
Where: parking lot next to the Saudi Arabian Airlines office on Qasr Nile Street, near the Nile Hilton Hotel, CAIRO
With the upcoming visit of President Obama to Cairo on June 4, a 66-person delegation, including Americans from 18 states, leaves Cairo on May 29 for the Gaza Strip. The group of peace activists, bringing toys and building playgrounds for the traumatized children of Gaza, has launched an international petition calling on Obama to visit Gaza and see the destruction for himself. They will return to Cairo on June 4 in time to deliver to the U.S. Embassy the petition asking Obama to visit the war-torn region and to push Israel and Egypt to open the borders.
“We think if President Obama is serious about being even-handed and reversing our country’s past favoritism towards Israel then he should visit Gaza himself,” says Medea Benjamin, co-founder of the peace group CODEPINK that organized the delegation. “We’re sure that if he saw and heard about the suffering personally, he would put the required pressure on the governments of both Israel and Egypt to open the borders now.”
CODEPINK is calling on concerned citizens everywhere to sign its petition to President Obama by visiting http://salsa.democracyinaction.org/o/424/t/8834/petition.jsp?petition_KEY=1837.
They will deliver the signatures to the U.S. Embassy during Obama’s visit, and hold a rally calling on the U.S. to stop funding Israeli war crimes. “If President Obama can, at the last minute, add a visit to Saudi Arabia to have a private dinner with the King, then he certainly can go to Gaza,” said Col. Ann Wright, co-leader of the delegation and a retired U.S. Army colonel and a former U.S. diplomat who resigned in 2003 in opposition to the Iraq war.
CODEPINK, a women-led peace group, has led several delegations to Gaza to witness, firsthand, the devastation caused by the 22 day Israeli military attack on the Gaza Strip that began in December, 2008. The group is particularly concerned about the children of Gaza, who make up more than half of the population. Approximately 400 children were killed during the 22 day attack and an estimated 1,346 Gazan children were left without one or both of their parents as a result of the recent Israeli assault. The majority of the children in Gaza were traumatized by the attack and invasion.
The international delegation, which will enter Gaza at the invitation of the United Nations Relief & Works Agency (UNRWA), will visit with social service agencies that care for children, deliver sports equipment and toys to schools, and build three playgrounds.

[Just so you know, the above is directly from the Muslim Brotherhood's website.]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In case you didn't know, the Muslim Brotherhood is very, very dangerous.They aren't "secular" like the Clown Prince of National Security James Clapper would have you believe. They're terrorists on par with Hamas, Hezbollah, and al-Qaeda. As Discover the Networks points out:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"MB [The Muslim Brotherhood] re-emerged somewhat under Anwar Sadat, a sympathizer of the group, when he became Egypt's president in 1970. Taking advantage of the Brotherhood’s militant aversion to secularism, Sadat sponsored the organization against his communist and socialist political opposition. Later, however, MB joined the political Left in opposing Sadat’s peace treaty with Israel, believing the normalization of relations with the Jewish State to be a betrayal of Islam.
Sadat was assassinated in October 1981, after a fatwa (religious edict) calling for his death had been issued by Omar Abdel-Rahman, the Islamic Group leader who despised Sadat for having struck a bargain with Israel. The assassination was planned jointly by MB and the Islamic Group.
In 1987, MB allied itself with the Labor Party and the socialist-liberal al-Ahrar Party to form the "Islamic Alliance," a coalition that won 65 seats in Egypt's parliamentary elections.
In 1995, Mustafa Mashhur, who would head MB in Egypt from 1996-2002, published Jihad Is the Way, the last of a five-volume work titled The Laws of Da’wa. Jihad Is the Way detailed MB's determination to advance Islam's global conquest, to reestablish an Islamic Caliphate, and to infuse all Muslims with a sense of duty to wage jihad against Israel. Masshur said that MB differed from al Qaeda only in its tactics, not in its goals. Among his book's quotes were the following:
•'The Islamic ummah [the supranational community of Muslims] can regain its power and be liberated and assume its rightful position which was intended by Allah, as the most exalted nation among men, as the leaders of humanity.'
•'Know your status [as Muslims], and believe firmly that you are the masters of the world, even if your enemies desire your degradation.'
•'One should know that it is not necessary that the Muslims repel every attack or damage caused by the enemies of Allah immediately, but [only] when ability and the circumstances are fit to it.' (This passage counseled Muslims to wage jihad only when conditions were ripe, and not sooner.)
•'It should be known that jihad and preparation towards jihad are not only for the purpose of fending off assaults and attacks of Allah’s enemies from Muslims, but are also for the purpose of realizing the great task of establishing an Islamic state and strengthening the religion and spreading it around the world.'
•'Jihad for Allah is not limited to the specific region of the Islamic countries, since the Muslim homeland is one and is not divided, and the banner of Jihad has already been raised in some of its parts, and shall continue to be raised, with the help of Allah, until every inch of the land of Islam will be liberated, and the State of Islam established.'
•'Honorable brothers have achieved shahada [martyrdom] on the soil of beloved Palestine, during the years ’47 and ’48, in their jihad against the criminal, thieving, gangs of Zion.'

That's as scary as Joyless Behar in the morning before she's had a chance to "put on her face", right ? Well, you ain't seen nothin' yet! If you'll recall, (assuming your head hasn't exploded yet) Code Pinko is also involved in tossing Mommar Qadaffi Duck out of power in Libya. (Along with the Armed Forces of the United States.) What a cowinky-dink! So is al-Qaeda! (of 9/11 fame) Even the HuffingtonandPuffington Post knows that:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Today, there is little doubt that eastern Libya, like other parts of the Arab world, is experiencing a genuine burst of anti-totalitarian fervor, expressed in demands for political freedom and economic reforms. But there also is a dark history to eastern Libya, which is the home of the Islamic Libyan Fighting Group, an anti-Gaddafi organization officially designated by the State Department as a terrorist organization.
The group was founded by Libyan mujahideen returning in the mid-1990s from Afghanistan, where they had gone to fight the Soviets’ Red Army. Building on a radical Islamist credo, they organized to fight the secular corruption of the Gaddafi regime. In 1996 they nearly succeeded in assassinating Gaddafi by attacking his motorcade with either a bomb or a rocket-propelled grenade which missed its target. The attack led to a severe crackdown by the regime. Many were imprisoned or disappeared, but the CIA still regards the group as one of the many franchises of al Qaeda, including al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula, which operates in Yemen, and al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb, which is active in Algeria and elsewhere in North Africa.
Eastern Libya has been described by U.S. diplomats as a breeding ground for Islamist extremism. In diplomatic cables released by Wikileaks, the region’s young men were said to have 'nothing to lose' by resorting to violence. Sermons in the local mosques are “laced with phraseology urging worshippers to support jihad," one diplomat reported.
U.S. officials declined to discuss the make-up of the anti-Gaddafi forces in eastern Libya, and U.S. intelligence agencies declined to comment publicly."

Take a wild guess who's helping to fund Code Pinko's jihad.....C'mon, you can do it...Your answer ? Correct-a-mundo! It's Adolf and Eva's love child, George $oros and his disgusting minions at the Tides Foundation! http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/groupProfile.asp?grpid=6149

It isn't just Furious George who funds the Tides Foundation. We The People also fund the Tides Foundation:

"The Tides Foundation and Tides Center also receive grants from the U.S. federal government. Between 1997 and 2001, these grants included the following: $395,219 from the Department of Interior; $3,350,431 from the Environmental Protection Agency; $3,487,040 from the Department of Housing and Urban Development; $208,878 from the Department of Agriculture; $39,550 from the Department of Energy; $93,500 from the Small Business Administration; $10,986 from the Department of Health and Human Services; and $84,520 from the Centers for Disease Control U.S. Agency for International Development."

Arrogant and lazy lamestream media....yoo-hoo....anyone home ? How about you, Janet "From Another Planet" Napolitano ? Do you think the Department of Homeland Security can get off of their duffs and start investigating this instead of writing useless reports about the "dangers" of Right Wing "Extremism" ? How about you, Darrell Issa and Peter King ? You gentlemen want to investigate everything under the sun, right ? Why not this outrage ? I'd ask the Department of Injustice and Eric (Steadman) Holder to investigate, but I'd be wasting my breath.
God help us all.

Here's A Crazy Question
Here's a crazy question: Was the federal "government" involved in some way in Glenn Beck's departure from FOX News ?
Now, don't get me wrong, I know how that sounds. I see your eyes rolling. Yes, my official Glenn Beck tinfoil hat is too tight, I'm a conspiracy theorist, blah, blah, blah, yadda, yadda, yadda. Nonetheless, I want you to really think about it. After all, we live in times that don't allow us to sit back and say: "Nah, that couldn't be true". We live in times that force us to say "Well, I hope that's not true".
Whether you're a fan or not, you have to admit that the federal "government" has never had a critic like Glenn Beck. He was different in the fact that he wasn't just attacking one party. Beck is not your typical "call the the left socialists, make a lame joke, take the next call" kind of guy. (In other words, he's not Todd Schnitt.) Beck always backs up his statements with facts that were easily researched if one desired. To Beck, saying something isn't enough. You had to go the extra mile and prove it, consequences be damned. This attitude may have made Beck a star, but it also made him a crap load of enemies. You can't just scream that 2+2=4 when the government says that 2+2=5. Just ask Cass Sunstein.
The most dangerous socialist nutjob in the Obama administration is UNELECTED Regulatory Czar Cass Sunstein. Cass' job is to make regulations. In other words, Cass makes rules that have the same power over us proles that have the same weight as laws. If that isn't creepy enough, Cass doesn't believe in Free Speech. Cass had this to say about "conspiracy theories" and what should be done about them:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Cass Sunstein has long been one of Barack Obama's closest confidants. Often mentioned as a likely Obama nominee to the Supreme Court, Sunstein is currently Obama's head of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs where, among other things, he is responsible for 'overseeing policies relating to privacy, information quality, and statistical programs.' In 2008, while at Harvard Law School Sunstein co-wrote a truly pernicious paper proposing that the U.S. Government employ teams of covert agents and pseudo-"independent" advocates to "cognitively infiltrate" online groups and websites -- as well as other activist groups -- which advocate views that Sunstein deems "false conspiracy theories" about the Government. This would be designed to increase citizens' faith in government officials and undermine the credibility of conspiracists." --- Glenn Greenwald, salon.com
http://www.salon.com/news/opinion/glenn_greenwald/2010/01/15/sunstein
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's the abstract from the above cited "academic" paper:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Many millions of people hold conspiracy theories; they believe that powerful people have worked together in order to withhold the truth about some important practice or some terrible event. A recent example is the belief, widespread in some parts of the world, that the attacks of 9/11 were carried out not by Al Qaeda, but by Israel or the United States. Those who subscribe to conspiracy theories may create serious risks, including risks of violence, and the existence of such theories raises significant challenges for policy and law. The first challenge is to understand the mechanisms by which conspiracy theories prosper; the second challenge is to understand how such theories might be undermined. Such theories typically spread as a result of identifiable cognitive blunders, operating in conjunction with informational and reputational influences. A distinctive feature of conspiracy theories is their self-sealing quality. Conspiracy theorists are not likely to be persuaded by an attempt to dispel their theories; they may even characterize that very attempt as further proof of the conspiracy. Because those who hold conspiracy theories typically suffer from a crippled epistemology, in accordance with which it is rational to hold such theories, the best response consists in cognitive infiltration of extremist groups. Various policy dilemmas, such as the question whether it is better for government to rebut conspiracy theories or to ignore them, are explored in this light."---Cass Sunstein and co author Adrian Vermeule
http://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=1084585
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, call me crazy and off my meds, but would this be a man who would have stood for Beck's withering critique of Chairman Obama and his Hopey-Changey socialist governing style ? Nope. In addition, Herr Sunstein is in bed with the George $oros crowd. From super sleuth Aaron Klein at WorldNetDaily:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"At least three White House advisers and officials, including President Obama's regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein, have ties to an effort funded by billionaire George Soros to push for a new, "progressive" U.S. Constitution.
WND first reported last week that Sunstein's wife, Samantha Power, has been a champion of a Soros-funded doctrine, entitled "responsibility to protect," which was used by Obama to justify engaging in an international military alliance to bomb Libya. As the National Security Council special adviser to Obama on human rights, Power reportedly influenced Obama in his decision.
Now it has emerged that Sunstein has maintained extensive ties to Soros' funding, particularly with regard to a movement that openly seeks to create a 'progressive' consensus as to what the U.S. Constitution should provide for by the year 2020.
Also, Attorney General Eric Holder sat on the board of a Soros-funded group pushing the same 'progressive' constitution'. "
http://www.wnd.com/?pageId=280277#ixzz1JAZuNjz5
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When a guy has skeletons in his closet like Ol' Cass has, you kind of want to keep things low key. The last thing he needs is someone like Glenn Beck analyzing his every move on a chalk board every night. Is it so unreasonable to believe that Herr Sunstein "leaned" on Roger Ailes, Head Honcho at FOX News, to get rid of Beck with some help from Pharoah $oros ? Remember, these are people who want to destroy the United States and change its Constitution. That's a project that requires absolute secrecy and silence, especially when you don't want angry proles chasing you with pitchforks and torches. This is what $oros and Cass want the Constitution to look like:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"In my dialogue with Bruce Ackerman, I will be arguing for the importance of focussing quite narrowly on the Constitution in 2020 -- the founding document as it is interpreted in courts. I will be urging that it is important to resist, on democratic grounds, the idea that the document should be interpreted to reflect the view of the extreme right-wing of the Republican Party. This idea, sometimes masquerading under the name of originalism or strict construction, represents a form of judicial hubris; it is bad history and bad law. It should be exposed and rejected as such." ---Cass Sunstein in 2005
http://constitutionin2020.blogspot.com/2005/03/post-by-cass-sunstein.html
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In other words: Cass wants to have a living, breathing Constitution that would give the Big Mommy Regime in DC unlimited power. He doesn't care what the Founders said, he only cares about what they should have said, in his own fascist opinion.
Now, I'm not going to pretend that I'm the one outing Cass Sunstein. Actually, Glenn Beck already did, many times on his FOX News show. However, this is some gold from Beck:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The office of information and regulatory affairs, Cass Sunstein who I maintain is the most dangerous man in America because you never see this guy coming. According to Red State, Cass Sunstein had championed creating fake websites and using outside 501(c)(3) interest groups to act as alleged independent champions of government policy and to, quote, cognitively infiltrate, end quote, opposition websites." ---Glenn Beck

"Tides Foundation CEO Drummond Pike's full letter to Fox News advertisers:
Dear Fox Advertiser,
I am writing to ask your company to take a simple step that may well save lives in the future. And it is not unimportant that taking this action will remove your company and its products from any connection to what could very likely be an unpleasant tragedy, should things remain as they are today. On behalf of my organization, and many others like it, I ask that you cease advertising on the Fox News Channel.
This is neither a hollow request, nor one rhetorically made. There is an urgency to it born of our own direct experience as the target of a would-be assassin inspired by Fox's Glenn Beck Show.
On July 19th of this year, I arrived at our San Francisco office to learn that a misguided person carrying numerous guns and body armor had been on his way to start a "revolution" by murdering my colleagues and me. The Oakland Police Department called to tell us that, following a 12 minute shootout with the California Highway Patrol, law enforcement officials arrested an assailant who had targeted the Tides Foundation, an organization which I founded and currently serve as CEO, and the ACLU for violence. To say we were "shocked" does not adequately describe our reaction. Imagine, for a moment, that you were us and, had it not been for a sharp eyed highway patrolman, a heavily armed man in full body armor would have made it to your office with the intent to kill you and your colleagues. His motive? Apparently, it was because the charitable, nonpartisan programs we run are deemed part of a conspiracy to undermine America and the capitalist system, which is hogwash.
Although not a political organization, the Tides Foundation has been a frequent target of misinformation, propaganda, and outright lies by Fox News' Glenn Beck. Since his arrival at Fox in early 2009, Beck has repeatedly vilified Tides, suggesting we are intent on 'creat[ing] a mass organization to seize power.' He accuses the foundation of indoctrination and says we are 'involved in some of the nastiest of the nasty.' Beck tells viewers that Tides has 'funneled' money to 'some of the most extreme groups on the left' and that our mission is to 'warp your children's brains and make sure they know how evil capitalism is.' In total, prior to the attempted rampage, Beck had attacked the Tides Foundation 29 times. On September 28th, more than a month after the shooting, Beck reiterated his focus on the Tides Foundation, warning, 'I'm coming for you.' In jailhouse interviews, the gunman confessed he views Beck as a 'schoolteacher' who 'blew my mind.' My would-be killer admitted that Beck 'give[s] you every ounce of evidence you could possibly need' to commit violence.
Beck is a self-described 'Progressive Hunter' who relies on violent rhetoric. Do you really think that the millions of Americans who describe themselves as "progressive" need to be 'hunted down'? If so, to what end?
For hours every day on radio and television, Beck pits American against American, telling his audience that our country is under attack by a demonic Nazi-like regime seeking to destroy all that is great about America while insisting it's up to his viewers to resist and revolt. He warned his audience that 'these are the most dangerous two years of our republic. Because in the end, in revolutions, the real dangerous killers show up.' Beck even compared our government to vampires while instructing his viewers to 'drive a stake through the heart of the bloodsuckers' and pretended to poison Speaker Pelosi on television. A few months later, Gregory Giusti was was arrested for repeatedly threatening House Speaker Nancy Pelosi -- including threatening to destroy her home -- because he was upset over health care reform. The man's mother told a local news station he listens to those with 'really radical ideas,' adding, 'I'd say Fox News or all of those that are really radical.'
When I started the Tides organizations 35 years ago, I did so in the very American belief that ordinary citizens had a role to play in our democratic process. It was, I thought, the responsibility of everyone to become engaged in our civic life, and for years we've worked with thousands of Americans to do just that. And, while we support progressive values and goals, we respect the rights and voices of those with whom we disagree on issues. Never in our history have we tolerated employees or grantees that support those who would do harm to others. By supporting Fox News Channel, you and your company are risking your reputation and good standing because they are doing just this.
As you may know, a coordinated advertiser boycott by Media Matters and Color of Change, an online civil rights group, has caused Glenn Beck's Fox News show to lose over 100 sponsors. Despite the campaign's success, Fox insists it has had no impact on the channel's profitability because the overall demand for advertisements on Fox has remained stable. Companies are still paying to advertise on Fox News, but their ads are simply moved to a different time of day. Thus, businesses that pay to broadcast commercials on Fox News are subsidizing Glenn Beck's television show by continuing to pump money into the network. It has become clear that the only way to stop supporting Beck is to stop supporting Fox News.
I respectfully request that you bring this matter of your company's sponsorship of hate speech leading to violence to the attention of your fellow directors as soon as possible. I believe no responsible company should advertise on Fox News due to its recent and on-going deplorable conduct.
While we may agree to disagree about the role our citizens and our government should play in promoting social justice and the common good, there should be no disagreement about what constitutes integrity and professionalism and responsibility in discourse - even when allowing for and encouraging contending diverse opinions intelligently argued. This is not a partisan issue. It's an American issue. No one, left, right or center, wants to see another Oklahoma City.
The next 'assassin' may succeed, and if so, there will be blood on many hands. The choice is yours. Please join my call to do the right thing in this regard and put Fox News at arm's length from your company by halting your advertising with them.
Sincerely,
Drummond Pike
CEO and Founder, Tides"

What about you, Colorofchange.org ? What's your deal ? Aren't you funded by Sugar Daddy $oros, too ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"ColorOfChange.org exists to strengthen Black America's political voice. Our goal is to empower our members - Black Americans and our allies - to make government more responsive to the concerns of Black Americans and to bring about positive political and social change for everyone.
We were heart-broken and outraged by the catastrophe that followed Hurricane Katrina. And we were devastated to realize that no African-American organization or coalition had the capacity to respond on the necessary scale.
Hurricane Katrina made it clear that our lack of a political voice has life-and-death consequences. With no one to speak for them, hundreds of thousands of people - largely Black, poor, and elderly - were left behind to die. But it wasn't just Black folks. Poor, sick, and elderly people of every color were abandoned too. We are not alone, and when we work to protect Black lives and interests, we do the same for all who have been left behind in political silence.
ColorOfChange.org is comprised of Black folks from every economic class, as well as those of every color who seek to help our voices be heard. Our members are united behind a simple, powerful pledge: we will do all we can to make sure all Americans are represented, served, and protected - regardless of race or class.
What We Do
Using the Internet, we enable our members to speak in unison, with an amplified political voice. We keep them informed about the most pressing issues for Black people in America and give them ways to act. We lobby elected representatives using email, the telephone, and face-to-face meetings.
We bring attention to the needs and concerns of Black folks by holding coordinated events in different parts of the country, running TV and print advertisements, and demanding that the news media cover our issues. We also work with other groups - online efforts and other organizations that are doing related work - to magnify our impact.
When we come together and speak with one voice, we cannot be ignored."

Well, isn't that remarkable! So, exactly how do you go about strengthening "Black America's political voice" ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"During a Fox News appearance, Glenn Beck called President Obama "a racist" who has a "deep-seated hatred for white people." Beck is on a campaign to convince the American public that President Obama's agenda is about serving the needs of Black communities at White people's expense. It's repulsive, divisive and shouldn't be on the air. Join us in calling on Beck's advertisers to stop sponsoring his show.
Join us in calling on Beck's advertisers to stop sponsoring his show.
UPDATE: More than 285,000 people have asked advertisers to distance themselves from his program. Since July 2009, nearly 300 advertisers have abandoned his Fox News show. Advertisers continue to stay away. The ColorOfChange community achieves a public rebuke on a scale rarely seen and helps push Beck’s voice further to the margins of public discourse, where it belongs.
UPDATE: Glenn Beck’s daily show will drop from the Fox News lineup. ColorOfChange Executive Director James Rucker responds here and here."
http://colorofchange.org/campaign/stop-glenn-beck/
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How did James Rucker respond ? Let's see:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Fox News has announced that Glenn Beck’s TV show will end later this year. This is great news, and it wouldn’t have happened without the efforts of ColorOfChange.org members. Since our campaign began in 2009, more than 285,000 of us demanded that Beck’s advertisers stop supporting his show, and they listened — roughly 300 companies abandoned his show. And we’ve made sure that major advertisers have stayed away from Beck — since the end of 2009, Beck’s only advertisers have been companies selling things like gold coins and exercise machines.
Beck’s lack of advertisers made him a financial liability for Fox, and it’s clear that this was a driving factor in his departure from Fox. This is an incredible and unprecedented victory.
Before this announcement from Fox, we already considered this campaign a huge success. Back in August 2009, when we had pushed about a dozen advertisers off of Beck’s show, the New York Times called our campaign “unusually successful.” After all major advertisers left Beck’s show in response to our campaign, it became extremely clear that the way Beck stokes fear and division is not acceptable in the mainstream. The media coverage of our campaign helped expose Beck for what he is — someone who twists the truth, stokes racial fear and tension for political and personal gain.
We always knew that we could reduce Beck’s influence and push him to the margins of political discourse — where he belongs.
Everyone who took part in this effort should feel proud. It’s because of us — everyday people taking a stand and demanding accountability — that Glenn Beck’s race-baiting and fear-mongering will no longer have a platform on a major TV network. We also want to thank our partners at MoveOn, CREDO Action, Media Matters, and StopBeck for all their hard work and support in this campaign. This victory is theirs too.
Our statement about Beck’s departure from Fox is here."

OAKLAND, Calif. – The following is a statement from James Rucker, executive director of ColorOfChange.org, in response to Glenn Beck’s departure from the Fox News Channel:
“ColorOfChange strongly applauds Glenn Beck’s departure from the Fox News Channel. More than 285,000 ColorOfChange members have participated in our campaign against him since it began in July 2009. Because of them, Beck’s show lost more than 300 advertisers – companies that were unwilling to attach their products and brands to his vitriolic and divisive commentary. Fox News Channel clearly understands that Beck’s increasingly erratic behavior is a liability to their ratings and their bottom line, and we are glad to see them take this action.”

"Simon Greer, president of Jewish Funds for Justice, released the following statement after Fox News Network announced today that it is terminating Glenn Beck’s daily television show later this year:
'Fox News is dumping Glenn Beck because he has been rejected by Jews, by Christians and people of conscience from across the political spectrum. We applaud Rupert Murdoch and Roger Ailes for taking responsibility for Beck’s destructive impact and for finally ridding themselves of his hate speech.
'For over a year, JFSJ has stood up to Beck’s conspiracy theories, which often involve personal attacks on Jews and on faiths that pursue social justice. In November, 10,000 people joined our call for Fox News to cancel Beck’s program, and many other Jewish leaders, including the editors at Commentary magazine, Prof. Deborah Lipstadt, Rabbi Eric Yoffie and rabbinical leaders of the major denominations have spoken out strongly against Beck’s rhetoric. Today, we feel like our voices have been heard.”
Jewish Funds for Justice has spearheaded the campaign to get Glenn Beck off of the air. Last fall, JFSJ delivered more than 10,000 petitions to Fox News headquarters, urging the company to 'Fire Beck.' In January, JFSJ organized more than 400 rabbis, including leaders of every denomination, to issue an open letter to Rupert Murdoch asking him to sanction Beck for the misuse of the Holocaust and Nazis to demonize political opponents. JFSJ was also instrumental in organizing the Jewish community to demand an apology from Beck after he compared Reform Judaism to radical Islam in February.
JFSJ continues to stand up to Beck’s destructive impact on the radio. The organization is working with Christian clergy to call upon Salem Communications not to air Beck’s nationally syndicated radio show in New York City and drop him from their stations in Chicago, Los Angeles, and Washington, DC.
Jewish Funds for Justice (JFSJ), a national public foundation guided by Jewish history and tradition, is standing up to Glenn Beck as part of 'Solutions not Scapegoats,' its campaign to counter fear-mongering and destructive political rhetoric."

Gee, what does destroying Glenn Beck have to do with Judaism or creating a "just, fair, and compassionate America" as the website's header reads ? I'm at a loss.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
See, folks, the bottom line is this: Glenn Beck wasn't removed from the FOX lineup because of his ratings, unlike Keith Olbermann. He wasn't canned for making racist remarks like Rick Sanchez. He was destroyed by the powers that be. He was destroyed by the "government" and its $oros funded puppeteers. Whether you love Beck or you think he's a lunatic, you should be offended as an American that a tiny, faceless group is deciding for YOU what you should be allowed to watch and who you should be allowed to listen to. Is this the American way ?
God help us all.
Now, don't get me wrong, I know how that sounds. I see your eyes rolling. Yes, my official Glenn Beck tinfoil hat is too tight, I'm a conspiracy theorist, blah, blah, blah, yadda, yadda, yadda. Nonetheless, I want you to really think about it. After all, we live in times that don't allow us to sit back and say: "Nah, that couldn't be true". We live in times that force us to say "Well, I hope that's not true".
Whether you're a fan or not, you have to admit that the federal "government" has never had a critic like Glenn Beck. He was different in the fact that he wasn't just attacking one party. Beck is not your typical "call the the left socialists, make a lame joke, take the next call" kind of guy. (In other words, he's not Todd Schnitt.) Beck always backs up his statements with facts that were easily researched if one desired. To Beck, saying something isn't enough. You had to go the extra mile and prove it, consequences be damned. This attitude may have made Beck a star, but it also made him a crap load of enemies. You can't just scream that 2+2=4 when the government says that 2+2=5. Just ask Cass Sunstein.
The most dangerous socialist nutjob in the Obama administration is UNELECTED Regulatory Czar Cass Sunstein. Cass' job is to make regulations. In other words, Cass makes rules that have the same power over us proles that have the same weight as laws. If that isn't creepy enough, Cass doesn't believe in Free Speech. Cass had this to say about "conspiracy theories" and what should be done about them:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Cass Sunstein has long been one of Barack Obama's closest confidants. Often mentioned as a likely Obama nominee to the Supreme Court, Sunstein is currently Obama's head of the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs where, among other things, he is responsible for 'overseeing policies relating to privacy, information quality, and statistical programs.' In 2008, while at Harvard Law School Sunstein co-wrote a truly pernicious paper proposing that the U.S. Government employ teams of covert agents and pseudo-"independent" advocates to "cognitively infiltrate" online groups and websites -- as well as other activist groups -- which advocate views that Sunstein deems "false conspiracy theories" about the Government. This would be designed to increase citizens' faith in government officials and undermine the credibility of conspiracists." --- Glenn Greenwald, salon.com
http://www.salon.com/news/opinion/glenn_greenwald/2010/01/15/sunstein
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's the abstract from the above cited "academic" paper:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Many millions of people hold conspiracy theories; they believe that powerful people have worked together in order to withhold the truth about some important practice or some terrible event. A recent example is the belief, widespread in some parts of the world, that the attacks of 9/11 were carried out not by Al Qaeda, but by Israel or the United States. Those who subscribe to conspiracy theories may create serious risks, including risks of violence, and the existence of such theories raises significant challenges for policy and law. The first challenge is to understand the mechanisms by which conspiracy theories prosper; the second challenge is to understand how such theories might be undermined. Such theories typically spread as a result of identifiable cognitive blunders, operating in conjunction with informational and reputational influences. A distinctive feature of conspiracy theories is their self-sealing quality. Conspiracy theorists are not likely to be persuaded by an attempt to dispel their theories; they may even characterize that very attempt as further proof of the conspiracy. Because those who hold conspiracy theories typically suffer from a crippled epistemology, in accordance with which it is rational to hold such theories, the best response consists in cognitive infiltration of extremist groups. Various policy dilemmas, such as the question whether it is better for government to rebut conspiracy theories or to ignore them, are explored in this light."---Cass Sunstein and co author Adrian Vermeule

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, call me crazy and off my meds, but would this be a man who would have stood for Beck's withering critique of Chairman Obama and his Hopey-Changey socialist governing style ? Nope. In addition, Herr Sunstein is in bed with the George $oros crowd. From super sleuth Aaron Klein at WorldNetDaily:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"At least three White House advisers and officials, including President Obama's regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein, have ties to an effort funded by billionaire George Soros to push for a new, "progressive" U.S. Constitution.
WND first reported last week that Sunstein's wife, Samantha Power, has been a champion of a Soros-funded doctrine, entitled "responsibility to protect," which was used by Obama to justify engaging in an international military alliance to bomb Libya. As the National Security Council special adviser to Obama on human rights, Power reportedly influenced Obama in his decision.
Now it has emerged that Sunstein has maintained extensive ties to Soros' funding, particularly with regard to a movement that openly seeks to create a 'progressive' consensus as to what the U.S. Constitution should provide for by the year 2020.
Also, Attorney General Eric Holder sat on the board of a Soros-funded group pushing the same 'progressive' constitution'. "

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When a guy has skeletons in his closet like Ol' Cass has, you kind of want to keep things low key. The last thing he needs is someone like Glenn Beck analyzing his every move on a chalk board every night. Is it so unreasonable to believe that Herr Sunstein "leaned" on Roger Ailes, Head Honcho at FOX News, to get rid of Beck with some help from Pharoah $oros ? Remember, these are people who want to destroy the United States and change its Constitution. That's a project that requires absolute secrecy and silence, especially when you don't want angry proles chasing you with pitchforks and torches. This is what $oros and Cass want the Constitution to look like:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"In my dialogue with Bruce Ackerman, I will be arguing for the importance of focussing quite narrowly on the Constitution in 2020 -- the founding document as it is interpreted in courts. I will be urging that it is important to resist, on democratic grounds, the idea that the document should be interpreted to reflect the view of the extreme right-wing of the Republican Party. This idea, sometimes masquerading under the name of originalism or strict construction, represents a form of judicial hubris; it is bad history and bad law. It should be exposed and rejected as such." ---Cass Sunstein in 2005
http://constitutionin2020.blogspot.com/2005/03/post-by-cass-sunstein.html
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In other words: Cass wants to have a living, breathing Constitution that would give the Big Mommy Regime in DC unlimited power. He doesn't care what the Founders said, he only cares about what they should have said, in his own fascist opinion.
Now, I'm not going to pretend that I'm the one outing Cass Sunstein. Actually, Glenn Beck already did, many times on his FOX News show. However, this is some gold from Beck:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The office of information and regulatory affairs, Cass Sunstein who I maintain is the most dangerous man in America because you never see this guy coming. According to Red State, Cass Sunstein had championed creating fake websites and using outside 501(c)(3) interest groups to act as alleged independent champions of government policy and to, quote, cognitively infiltrate, end quote, opposition websites." ---Glenn Beck

"Tides Foundation CEO Drummond Pike's full letter to Fox News advertisers:
Dear Fox Advertiser,
I am writing to ask your company to take a simple step that may well save lives in the future. And it is not unimportant that taking this action will remove your company and its products from any connection to what could very likely be an unpleasant tragedy, should things remain as they are today. On behalf of my organization, and many others like it, I ask that you cease advertising on the Fox News Channel.
This is neither a hollow request, nor one rhetorically made. There is an urgency to it born of our own direct experience as the target of a would-be assassin inspired by Fox's Glenn Beck Show.
On July 19th of this year, I arrived at our San Francisco office to learn that a misguided person carrying numerous guns and body armor had been on his way to start a "revolution" by murdering my colleagues and me. The Oakland Police Department called to tell us that, following a 12 minute shootout with the California Highway Patrol, law enforcement officials arrested an assailant who had targeted the Tides Foundation, an organization which I founded and currently serve as CEO, and the ACLU for violence. To say we were "shocked" does not adequately describe our reaction. Imagine, for a moment, that you were us and, had it not been for a sharp eyed highway patrolman, a heavily armed man in full body armor would have made it to your office with the intent to kill you and your colleagues. His motive? Apparently, it was because the charitable, nonpartisan programs we run are deemed part of a conspiracy to undermine America and the capitalist system, which is hogwash.
Although not a political organization, the Tides Foundation has been a frequent target of misinformation, propaganda, and outright lies by Fox News' Glenn Beck. Since his arrival at Fox in early 2009, Beck has repeatedly vilified Tides, suggesting we are intent on 'creat[ing] a mass organization to seize power.' He accuses the foundation of indoctrination and says we are 'involved in some of the nastiest of the nasty.' Beck tells viewers that Tides has 'funneled' money to 'some of the most extreme groups on the left' and that our mission is to 'warp your children's brains and make sure they know how evil capitalism is.' In total, prior to the attempted rampage, Beck had attacked the Tides Foundation 29 times. On September 28th, more than a month after the shooting, Beck reiterated his focus on the Tides Foundation, warning, 'I'm coming for you.' In jailhouse interviews, the gunman confessed he views Beck as a 'schoolteacher' who 'blew my mind.' My would-be killer admitted that Beck 'give[s] you every ounce of evidence you could possibly need' to commit violence.
Beck is a self-described 'Progressive Hunter' who relies on violent rhetoric. Do you really think that the millions of Americans who describe themselves as "progressive" need to be 'hunted down'? If so, to what end?
For hours every day on radio and television, Beck pits American against American, telling his audience that our country is under attack by a demonic Nazi-like regime seeking to destroy all that is great about America while insisting it's up to his viewers to resist and revolt. He warned his audience that 'these are the most dangerous two years of our republic. Because in the end, in revolutions, the real dangerous killers show up.' Beck even compared our government to vampires while instructing his viewers to 'drive a stake through the heart of the bloodsuckers' and pretended to poison Speaker Pelosi on television. A few months later, Gregory Giusti was was arrested for repeatedly threatening House Speaker Nancy Pelosi -- including threatening to destroy her home -- because he was upset over health care reform. The man's mother told a local news station he listens to those with 'really radical ideas,' adding, 'I'd say Fox News or all of those that are really radical.'
When I started the Tides organizations 35 years ago, I did so in the very American belief that ordinary citizens had a role to play in our democratic process. It was, I thought, the responsibility of everyone to become engaged in our civic life, and for years we've worked with thousands of Americans to do just that. And, while we support progressive values and goals, we respect the rights and voices of those with whom we disagree on issues. Never in our history have we tolerated employees or grantees that support those who would do harm to others. By supporting Fox News Channel, you and your company are risking your reputation and good standing because they are doing just this.
As you may know, a coordinated advertiser boycott by Media Matters and Color of Change, an online civil rights group, has caused Glenn Beck's Fox News show to lose over 100 sponsors. Despite the campaign's success, Fox insists it has had no impact on the channel's profitability because the overall demand for advertisements on Fox has remained stable. Companies are still paying to advertise on Fox News, but their ads are simply moved to a different time of day. Thus, businesses that pay to broadcast commercials on Fox News are subsidizing Glenn Beck's television show by continuing to pump money into the network. It has become clear that the only way to stop supporting Beck is to stop supporting Fox News.
I respectfully request that you bring this matter of your company's sponsorship of hate speech leading to violence to the attention of your fellow directors as soon as possible. I believe no responsible company should advertise on Fox News due to its recent and on-going deplorable conduct.
While we may agree to disagree about the role our citizens and our government should play in promoting social justice and the common good, there should be no disagreement about what constitutes integrity and professionalism and responsibility in discourse - even when allowing for and encouraging contending diverse opinions intelligently argued. This is not a partisan issue. It's an American issue. No one, left, right or center, wants to see another Oklahoma City.
The next 'assassin' may succeed, and if so, there will be blood on many hands. The choice is yours. Please join my call to do the right thing in this regard and put Fox News at arm's length from your company by halting your advertising with them.
Sincerely,
Drummond Pike
CEO and Founder, Tides"

What about you, Colorofchange.org ? What's your deal ? Aren't you funded by Sugar Daddy $oros, too ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"ColorOfChange.org exists to strengthen Black America's political voice. Our goal is to empower our members - Black Americans and our allies - to make government more responsive to the concerns of Black Americans and to bring about positive political and social change for everyone.
We were heart-broken and outraged by the catastrophe that followed Hurricane Katrina. And we were devastated to realize that no African-American organization or coalition had the capacity to respond on the necessary scale.
Hurricane Katrina made it clear that our lack of a political voice has life-and-death consequences. With no one to speak for them, hundreds of thousands of people - largely Black, poor, and elderly - were left behind to die. But it wasn't just Black folks. Poor, sick, and elderly people of every color were abandoned too. We are not alone, and when we work to protect Black lives and interests, we do the same for all who have been left behind in political silence.
ColorOfChange.org is comprised of Black folks from every economic class, as well as those of every color who seek to help our voices be heard. Our members are united behind a simple, powerful pledge: we will do all we can to make sure all Americans are represented, served, and protected - regardless of race or class.
What We Do
Using the Internet, we enable our members to speak in unison, with an amplified political voice. We keep them informed about the most pressing issues for Black people in America and give them ways to act. We lobby elected representatives using email, the telephone, and face-to-face meetings.
We bring attention to the needs and concerns of Black folks by holding coordinated events in different parts of the country, running TV and print advertisements, and demanding that the news media cover our issues. We also work with other groups - online efforts and other organizations that are doing related work - to magnify our impact.
When we come together and speak with one voice, we cannot be ignored."
http://colorofchange.org/about/
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well, isn't that remarkable! So, exactly how do you go about strengthening "Black America's political voice" ?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"During a Fox News appearance, Glenn Beck called President Obama "a racist" who has a "deep-seated hatred for white people." Beck is on a campaign to convince the American public that President Obama's agenda is about serving the needs of Black communities at White people's expense. It's repulsive, divisive and shouldn't be on the air. Join us in calling on Beck's advertisers to stop sponsoring his show.
Join us in calling on Beck's advertisers to stop sponsoring his show.
UPDATE: More than 285,000 people have asked advertisers to distance themselves from his program. Since July 2009, nearly 300 advertisers have abandoned his Fox News show. Advertisers continue to stay away. The ColorOfChange community achieves a public rebuke on a scale rarely seen and helps push Beck’s voice further to the margins of public discourse, where it belongs.
UPDATE: Glenn Beck’s daily show will drop from the Fox News lineup. ColorOfChange Executive Director James Rucker responds here and here."
http://colorofchange.org/campaign/stop-glenn-beck/
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How did James Rucker respond ? Let's see:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Fox News has announced that Glenn Beck’s TV show will end later this year. This is great news, and it wouldn’t have happened without the efforts of ColorOfChange.org members. Since our campaign began in 2009, more than 285,000 of us demanded that Beck’s advertisers stop supporting his show, and they listened — roughly 300 companies abandoned his show. And we’ve made sure that major advertisers have stayed away from Beck — since the end of 2009, Beck’s only advertisers have been companies selling things like gold coins and exercise machines.
Beck’s lack of advertisers made him a financial liability for Fox, and it’s clear that this was a driving factor in his departure from Fox. This is an incredible and unprecedented victory.
Before this announcement from Fox, we already considered this campaign a huge success. Back in August 2009, when we had pushed about a dozen advertisers off of Beck’s show, the New York Times called our campaign “unusually successful.” After all major advertisers left Beck’s show in response to our campaign, it became extremely clear that the way Beck stokes fear and division is not acceptable in the mainstream. The media coverage of our campaign helped expose Beck for what he is — someone who twists the truth, stokes racial fear and tension for political and personal gain.
We always knew that we could reduce Beck’s influence and push him to the margins of political discourse — where he belongs.
Everyone who took part in this effort should feel proud. It’s because of us — everyday people taking a stand and demanding accountability — that Glenn Beck’s race-baiting and fear-mongering will no longer have a platform on a major TV network. We also want to thank our partners at MoveOn, CREDO Action, Media Matters, and StopBeck for all their hard work and support in this campaign. This victory is theirs too.
Our statement about Beck’s departure from Fox is here."

OAKLAND, Calif. – The following is a statement from James Rucker, executive director of ColorOfChange.org, in response to Glenn Beck’s departure from the Fox News Channel:
“ColorOfChange strongly applauds Glenn Beck’s departure from the Fox News Channel. More than 285,000 ColorOfChange members have participated in our campaign against him since it began in July 2009. Because of them, Beck’s show lost more than 300 advertisers – companies that were unwilling to attach their products and brands to his vitriolic and divisive commentary. Fox News Channel clearly understands that Beck’s increasingly erratic behavior is a liability to their ratings and their bottom line, and we are glad to see them take this action.”

Emmanuel Goldstein Beck
Yes, it's true, Glenn Beck's 5pm show on FOX is coming to an end.
In my mind's eye, I can see Media Matters' Eric Boehlert and David Brock hugging each other in a not-so-manly way. I can see Lawrence O'Donnell cackling with glee while boring his twelve viewers to sleep. I can also see Chris Matthews pouring himself yet another drink in celebration. All of Progressivakia is now thanking the Earth Mother that their version of Emannuel Goldstein, Glenn Beck, is leaving his 5PM show.
Needless to say, I'm not buying the whole "Glenn Beck is leaving his show to do other projects" spin from FOX News head honcho Roger Ailes and Beck. I'm going on the record saying that Beck is being forced out by the friction from the $oros funded criminal front groups like Media Matters, the Pseudo-Jews of the Jewish Funds For Justice, the Pseudo-Christians at Sojourners, the Center for (Un) American Progress, and the rest of the Nazi Block Watchers of The Week, as Ann Coulter calls them. (We can't blame Ailes. FOX news is a business above all. It is not like Nasty Propaganda Radio--NPR-- that begs for donations and leeches off of taxpayers.Whether we like to admit it or not, those boycotts led by the $oros front groups hurt.) Once again, the tiny liberal minority in the United States is giving the Conservative majority the middle finger. On the surface, this looks like the Authoritarian Left wins again by silencing another critic.
Not this time.
I'm going to let the left in on a little secret, even if it costs me my Right Wing Extremist Decoder Ring. Glenn Beck is a fun TV personality to watch with crap loads of charisma, but we on the Constitutional Right don't look towards him as if he were some sort of guru, like the idiots who worship Keith Olbermann. Many of the things that Beck revealed on his show were common knowledge for us on the Constitutional Right. The Authoritarian Left can silence Beck and intimidate the suits at FOX News all they want, but they can never silence the individual. They can't stop us from holding discussions at Free Republic. They can't stop us from posting articles on Townhall. They can't stop us from calling a buddy on the phone and saying "Did you see what the Kenyan Socialist is trying to do to us today ?" or "Hey, I just finished reading this (insert your favorite Conservative book here). What did you think of it ?" The strength of the Conservative movement is its belief in the individual. We don't sit around waiting for someone to lead us. We lead ourselves. To quote Chairman Obama: "We are the ones we've been waiting for."
Go ahead, libs. Pretend that you've won a victory. Pretend that Emannuel Goldstein Beck is gone and we'll all start chanting 2+2=5. Pretend that Rachel Maddcow is female, I don't care. The bottom line is this: We are taking back OUR country from YOU. We are sick and tired of your politicalcorrecthink crap. We are sick and damn tired of being told what to think by YOU. We're not giving in, libs. For every patriot you knock down with your smears and innuendo, two more will take his place. You can take that to the government-run bank. Never again will we kowtow to the Authoritarain Left. Those days are done, no matter how much sissies like David Brock whine and cry.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Now there's another thing I want you to remember. I don't want to get any messages saying that we are holding our position. We're not holding anything. Let the Hun do that. We are advancing constantly and we're not interested in holding onto anything -- except the enemy. We're going to hold onto him by the nose, and we're gonna kick him in the a**. We're gonna kick the hell out of him all the time, and we're gonna go through him like crap through a goose!"--- George C. Scott as General George S. Patton in the opening of Patton (1970)

(We can't blame Ailes. FOX news is a business above all. It is not like Nasty Propaganda Radio--NPR-- that begs for donations and leeches off of taxpayers.Whether we like to admit it or not, those boycotts led by the $oros front groups hurt.) Once again, the tiny liberal minority in the United States is giving the Conservative majority the middle finger. On the surface, this looks like the Authoritarian Left wins again by silencing another critic.
Not this time.
I'm going to let the left in on a little secret, even if it costs me my Right Wing Extremist Decoder Ring. Glenn Beck is a fun TV personality to watch with crap loads of charisma, but we on the Constitutional Right don't look towards him as if he were some sort of guru, like the idiots who worship Keith Olbermann. Many of the things that Beck revealed on his show were common knowledge for us on the Constitutional Right. The Authoritarian Left can silence Beck and intimidate the suits at FOX News all they want, but they can never silence the individual. They can't stop us from holding discussions at Free Republic. They can't stop us from posting articles on Townhall. They can't stop us from calling a buddy on the phone and saying "Did you see what the Kenyan Socialist is trying to do to us today ?" or "Hey, I just finished reading this (insert your favorite Conservative book here). What did you think of it ?" The strength of the Conservative movement is its belief in the individual. We don't sit around waiting for someone to lead us. We lead ourselves. To quote Chairman Obama: "We are the ones we've been waiting for."
Go ahead, libs. Pretend that you've won a victory. Pretend that Emannuel Goldstein Beck is gone and we'll all start chanting 2+2=5. Pretend that Rachel Maddcow is female, I don't care. The bottom line is this: We are taking back OUR country from YOU. We are sick and tired of your politicalcorrecthink crap. We are sick and damn tired of being told what to think by YOU. We're not giving in, libs. For every patriot you knock down with your smears and innuendo, two more will take his place. You can take that to the government-run bank. Never again will we kowtow to the Authoritarain Left. Those days are done, no matter how much sissies like David Brock whine and cry.

"Now there's another thing I want you to remember. I don't want to get any messages saying that we are holding our position. We're not holding anything. Let the Hun do that. We are advancing constantly and we're not interested in holding onto anything -- except the enemy. We're going to hold onto him by the nose, and we're gonna kick him in the a**. We're gonna kick the hell out of him all the time, and we're gonna go through him like crap through a goose!"--- George C. Scott as General George S. Patton in the opening of Patton (1970)

Operation Social Justice
In 2007, a little known Imperial Senator from Mentally Illinois named Barack Hussein Obama introduced the S.2433, The Global Poverty Act, whose introduction is shown below:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"To require the President to develop and implement a comprehensive strategy to further the United States foreign policy objective of promoting the reduction of global poverty, the elimination of extreme global poverty, and the achievement of the Millennium Development Goal of reducing by one-half the proportion of people worldwide, between 1990 and 2015, who live on less than $1 per day."
[To read the rest of the bill, which is actually fairly short, http://www.govtrack.us/congress/billtext.xpd?bill=s110-2433]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As was reported by WorldNetDaily, Cliff Kincaid of Accuracy in Media estimated that this insanity would redistribute 0.7% of the GDP of the United States to hell holes all over the world. This would have increased foreign aid spending by $845 billion in 13 short years. Luckily for us Proles, this stinker died in committee and never became law. (For more on this, check out: http://www.wnd.com/?pageId=56405)
Now, I know what you're thinking: Thanks for the trip down Memory Hole Lane, professor, but this is now a dead issue. John Boehner may be a major disappointment as Speaker of the House, but even he isn't stupid enough to give crap like this the time of day.
Are you sure about that ? Do you really believe that Obama's Marxist/internationalist program is a dead issue ? Do you really believe the Republican Panty (no typo) is immune to this type of insanity ? On March 30th, the Weeper of the House said this statement about Chairman Obama's Libyan Adventure:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"The United States has a moral obligation to stand with those who seek freedom from oppression and self-government for their people. It’s unacceptable and outrageous for Qadhafi to attack his own people, and the violence must stop. "

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A moral obligation, Mr. Weeper ? Try as I might, I can't seem to find that in the Constitution. Wasn't your first act as Speaker of the House to read the Constitution (edited, might I add.) ? In that document, did you find a section that deals with the responsibilty of the United States to get involved in every civil war on the planet ? No, Mr. Weeper, that section is not in the Constitution because it does not exist. The funny part about all of this is the fact that Boehner's statement came after Chairman Obama said this in his rambling speech attempting to justify the involvement of the United States in the Libyan civil war:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"That is not to say that our work is complete. In addition to our NATO responsibilities, we will work with the international community to provide assistance to the people of Libya, who need food for the hungry and medical care for the wounded. We will safeguard the more than $33 billion that was frozen from the Gaddafi regime so that it is available to rebuild Libya. After all, this money does not belong to Gaddafi or to us - it belongs to the Libyan people, and we will make sure they receive it."

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is that not social justice ? Is that not taking wealth from the American tax payer and giving it to Libya, which is not even America's ally ? Is this not the federal "government" deciding that Libyans need American wealth more than the Americans who earned it ?
Where does this end ? If the new war in Libya escalates (and there's no reason to believe that it won't, especially since the CIA is currently in Libya gathering intelligence, much the same way they did in Iraq. Oh yeah, there's 2500 Marines waiting on a ship off the Libyan coast.) the spending on this utter nonsense will be epic. (And, not to mention horribly unfair to the brave men and women of the US military who should not have to risk their lives to support an al-Qaeda led coup. This rant on this is coming soon, so stay tuned.) This will wipe out any cuts made to the bloated federal budget, leaving us in the same nightmarish fiscal position we started with before the Midterm Massacre.
I'm not denying that there is genuine suffering in Libya. However, there is also genuine suffering in Yemen. And Rwanda. And Bahrain. And Syria. And the Ivory Coast. And...well, you're a smart cookie True Believer. I don't have to spell it out for you. The United States cannot reasonably assume the role of the world's social worker. The United States didn't cause the world's suffering, therefore its people should not be responsible for paying for it. Any belief otherwise is taking American sovereignty and flushing it down the toilet, regardless of whether Chairman Obama and the Weeper of the House believe it or not.
God help us all.
