THE SATURDAY GRUDGE

Posted by Pistol Pete

Thank you all so much for your words of encouragement.I care so much for all of you that when things don’t go as they should I feel as useless as tits on a boar.I always try to give  you the best that I’m capable of.It’s little enough for all I get from everybody here.

NBA STARS TO PLAY IN OBAMA BASKETBALL FUNDRAISER

Not so surprising;most of them have criminal records,so they should feel right at home at the White Hut.Question is,why does that pompous ass need a billion dollars to savage the Republican nominee when his palace guards in the media will happily do it for free?

THE PIPELINE SELLOUT

The latest from The Kraut

http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/283442/pipeline-sellout-charles-krauthammer

RUSH:NOW IT’S NEWT’S TURN FOR AN ANAL EXAM,BUT HOW COME IT’S NEVER ROMNEY’S?

What really irritates me is the field is always winnowed down to the weakest,most spineless,mushy moderate to satisfy the establishment.I NEVER hear that democrats have to settle.They know full well the teachers unions are turning out dumb-as-dirt lumps indoctrinated in the ways of liberalism.Their candidate just pretends to be moderate to fool a few inattentive independents and the welfare parasites automatically fall in line.At this point,I don’t know if a real conservative would have a chance.Would it be worth risking another Obozo term,which would be the end of our way of life?

REID NOT BUTTERING UP BOEHNER NOW THAT HE HAS LEVERAGE IN DEFICIT TALKS

Put  candy-ass weeper of the House in a ring with a two-legged rattlesnake and the outcome is a foregone conclusion.Remember when the Senate was 50-50 and Cheney was the tie-breaking vote?Daschle conned Trent Lott into “co-chairing” committees in the spirit of bipartisanship? That lasted until they got Jim Jeffords to sell out his party for a chairmanship and all the bipartisan crap went out the window.Our side never learns.

It’s beyond me …

I’ve been disabled for more than 20 years and been on Medicare the whole time.

(I can’t tell you the number of dumb medical receptionists who were just SOOOOOO sure I meant “Medicaid” because I wasn’t “old enough for Medicare.” No, I am disabled. Medicare is also for the disabled. See, here? Look at the card. MedicaRE. Duh.)

I can’t claim to understand any jot or tittle of how it works. However, I can report what my 2010 statement says:

Total benefits for 2010: $8,704.80

MINUS Medicare Part B premiums deducted from benefits: $1,156.80

Received by direct deposit (which I’ll grant them, comes in on time every month): $7,548.00

The total benefits number has been the same 2009, 2010, and 2011. In previous years, I usually got ten or fifteen bucks extra each January. But according to some screwball, Twilight Zone system of accounting, the cost of living has not increased since The Zero took office; ergo, we all got Zero Cost of Living Adjustments.

It’s beyond me how they justified a zero COLA (Cost of Living Adjustment) two years in a row when prices have been sky-rocketing. Just ONE of the items I need on a regular basis has gone from $4 to $7 a bottle. Cripes, have the idjits in the Obambi Government SEEN the cost of GAS? Or GROCERIES?

It’s also beyond me why my Medicare premium went up when the alleged cost of living did not. I’m actually getting LESS cash this year than last year and stuff I gave up my little luxuries to afford in 2009 are not totally out of reach.

If Corporal K were not paying all the dogs’ expenses, we’d have had to give them away. To my mind, that right there is enough reason to NOT vote for the people who brought me this situation.

Democrats!

They engineered the economic collapse, forced through the legislation that has driven up energy and food costs, and have overseen every step of the 2009-to-present economic stagnation. And that’s not just mud slinging. I can prove it.

I guess I’m really stupid, because it’s ALSO beyond me why any retired or disabled person holding enough marbles to find a voting booth would vote for any Democrat in 2012, but I know they will.

THE WEDNESDAY GRUDGE

Posted by Pistol Pete

While putting my report together,I had the bad judgement to watch a video of that steaming pantload Bill Maher on ‘The View From The Far Left’ yesterday.He said: ‘we do a comedy show.’ As far as I’m concerned racist,hyper-partisan hatred is not funny.Don Rickles made a career out of making fun of people,but they knew it was just his schtick and was nothing personal.This festering sac of pus is deliberately passing off his venality as comedy,like when Alec Baldwin screamed: “We should stone Henry Hyde then go to his house and kill his family!’ when The Slickster got impeached.Later he claimed it was a joke.Funny,huh?

True comedy must have a grain of truth to it and it’s not easy to do well.Comics like Redd Foxx,Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy use profanity-laced diatribes because their audience is mainly urban and have heard that kind of language their whole lives.My grandparents raised me for almost 20 years and my grandmother dropped the ‘F’ bomb once,and grandad never did.That took a lot of effort,considering they had to put up with me.

We were fortunate enough to grow up with Jack Benny,Burns and Allen,Jackie Gleason,Red Skelton,Bill Cosby,the list goes on.They could be funny without cursing or belittling anybody.The elites can’t figure out why cornpone humor like the Blue Collar crew make millions.These guys figured out you can be successful playing to the part of the country between Manhattan and Malibu,AKA “flyover country”.This is a microcosm of the battle we are engaged in for the very soul of our nation.Those who think Maher is ‘cutting edge’ comedy and those who understand where Jeff Foxworthy is coming from.

THE TUESDAY GRUDGE

Posted by Pistol Pete

(accept no imitations)

It was my misfortune to witness the sham ‘news conference’ staged by the queen of media whores and her latest “victim.”

My first thought was ‘Geez,they got a bottle-blonde bimbo straight out of central casting.’ She claimed he put one hand up her skirt and another to push her head down into his lap.As a veteran of car wars back in the day,I can tell you this is nearly impossible with just two arms.Thanks to the miracle of the internet,we found out all one needs to know about her credibility within minutes.All-red opened her remarks by saying she’s a registered republican.A search of the Illinois election site shows her registration is inactive.She has filed bankruptcy twice but says she’s not doing it for the money.You can bet somebody threw her some big money.There is much more on this in these articles:

Herman Cain, meet Samuel Yette

by Mark Crutcher, president of Life Dynamics Incorporated

In January of this year, an African-American man living out his life in a Maryland nursing home succumbed to Alzheimer’s disease. Because he was not a sports hero or a member of America’s brain-dead entertainment industry, the nation barely noted either his life or his passing.

His name was Samuel Frederick Yette. Born into the segregated South in 1929, Mr. Yette earned a bachelor’s degree from Tennessee State University and a master’s from Indiana University. Then, following his U.S. Air Force service in the Korean War, he became an award-winning journalist who worked for several newspapers and magazines. In 1964, he was appointed Executive Secretary of the Peace Corps after which he became Special Assistant for Civil Rights to the Director of the U.S. Office of Economic Opportunity. He later became a civil rights commentator for both BET and PBS and he finished his working life as a lecturer and a professor at Howard University.

Among Yette’s many other achievements, in 1968, he had become the first African-American reporter hired by Newsweek magazine where he soon rose to the position of Washington D.C. Bureau Correspondent. But three years later, he wrote a book that exposed high-level plans within the United States to use birth control and abortion as instruments of Black genocide. Yette’s book was called The Choice, and immediately after it was published, he was summoned to his supervisor’s office and fired. During that meeting, he was told that his termination was caused by pressure from the Nixon White House to get him out of Washington.

Next, despite the fact that his book was selling well, had won at least two national awards and was being used as a textbook in colleges across the country, Yette’s publisher mysteriously dropped him and took the book off the market.

It is important to understand that, by this point in history, population control – especially Black population control – had become a virtual religion for America’s power structure. And that remains true to this day. Whether it’s liberal social engineers, or wealthy elitists, or the media establishment, or the academic community, these people have created a “Population-Control / Family-Planning Cartel” that does not tolerate dissent. If you cross them, or if you appear to be a threat to their agenda, they will chop you off at the knees. It is also true that they have been especially ruthless about this when it comes to African-Americans. Early on, the leaders of the eugenics movement had figured out that it was best for them to keep their racial intentions hidden. They also understood that it would be hard to pull this off if a lot of “uppity” Black opinion molders started challenging their actions and questioning their motives.

That knowledge drove the assault on Samuel Yette. The Cartel – of which Richard Nixon was a card-carrying member – was sending a message to civil-rights activists, politicians, journalists, writers, college professors or anyone else who might have influence within the Black community. They were being warned that, when it came to population control, they only had two options: they could either get on the plantation or they could keep their mouths shut. Yette described the situation perfectly in January of 1972 when he told a reporter for Jet Magazine, “I do not mean to be pejorative or vindictive, when I say this, but had I been a nigger instead of Black, a spy instead of a reporter, a tool instead of a man, I could have stayed at Newsweek indefinitely.”

Samuel Yette may have told the Cartel where to shove their options but, regrettably, time would show that most influential Blacks did not have his kind of courage. Thus, they chose between the two options offered to them. In just one example of this, the politically ambitious Jesse Jackson instantly went from describing abortion as “genocide” and calling for a constitutional amendment to ban it, to being one of its most shameless apologists. In Jackson’s world, the word “genocide” had morphed into the word “choice” virtually overnight. He, and others like him, were creating a model for how to suck up to America’s power-elite. It is a model that is still in use as you read this.

Now comes Republican presidential candidate, Herman Cain.

In the last few weeks, Cain began pointing out that the Cartel is still alive and well in the form of organizations like Planned Parenthood. He also reminded the public that this particular organization was founded as an instrument of eugenics while being politically and financially backed by ultra-wealthy racists and eugenicists. He then correctly pointed out that Planned Parenthood, as well as other eugenics organizations, have disproportionately placed their facilities in minority communities with results that have been both disastrous and predictable. Finally, he called for Planned Parenthood to be stripped of its one-million-dollars-a-day in taxpayer funding. (You heard correctly … $1,000,000.00 a day.)

The fascinating thing is that, within hours, anonymous people started dropping out of the trees to claim that Herman Cain sexually harassed them. As we have seen in the past, this is a very convenient charge because it is one that is virtually impossible to refute. In the minds of many, the mere accusation itself is evidence of guilt, and once the allegation is made, the target has to prove a negative which, for all practical purposes, cannot be done.

This is especially problematic for Republicans since the standard for using it against them is different than it is for Democrats. For whatever reason, it appears that our society has reached a point where it simply accepts that Democrat politicians will have significantly lower moral standards than Republican politicians. The perfect example of this is, of course, Bill Clinton. I mean, here is a man that even the most ardent Democrats would not leave alone in a room with their 15-year-old daughter, but they would enthusiastically elect him President of the United States.

Back to the Cain situation, let me make it clear that I have no personal knowledge of whether the allegations against him are legitimate or not. On one hand, there are men who sexually harass women and, on the other hand, there are women who fabricate such charges. In the end, it seems that only the accusers and the accused ever really know the truth.

So while I have no way of drawing conclusions regarding the merit of these accusations, their timing is undeniably suspicious. From the beginning, it seemed too coincidental to actually be coincidental that Cain’s attack on the Population-Control / Family-Planning Cartel was immediately followed by sexual harassment charges against him.

I may be baying at the moon here, but the whole episode gives off a very Nixonian odor. Perhaps Herman Cain is being warned to either take one of the Cartel’s options or suffer the fate of Samuel Yette. Whether that is the case or not, the reality is that if Herman Cain were “pro-choice” on abortion and the leading candidate in the Republican race for the White House, there would be no sexual harassment accusations hanging over his head and it wouldn’t matter how true or untrue they may be.

If you doubt that, again I refer to Bill Clinton. When far more serious and far more numerous allegations were made against him, including some that would have been felonies if prosecuted, the leaders of America’s eugenics and population-control groups tied themselves in knots trying to defend him. Many even publicly admitted that the reason they were willing to look the other way was because of Clinton’s unwavering support for abortion.

In an article written about this situation by feminist gadfly, Gloria Steinem, it was even suggested that Slick Willy was to be admired because it appeared that, when he went after a woman, he backed down if she rejected him. His willingness to accept “no” for an answer was, according to her, proof that he was the kind of man feminists want all men to become. In short, every man gets one free grope.

Of course, to no one’s surprise, this newly embraced “boys-will-be-boys” attitude even extended to the media. Former Time magazine reporter, Nina Burleigh, wrote an article heaping praise on Clinton in which she volunteered that, “I’d be happy to give him a b*** j** [street term for oral sex] just to thank him for keeping abortion legal.” Others made similarly charming statements.

The message in all this was unmistakable and unambiguous. The population control lobby has come to just accept that, by definition, pro-choice men are going to be of lower moral character than other men and should not be expected to meet the same standards of behavior. And sure ’nuff, they never are.

I want to offer one last observation for Mr. Cain and all those others who might one day find themselves being ground under the Cartel’s hobnailed boot. Samuel Yette left this world as a decent and courageous man and that is a feeling sell-outs like Jesse Jackson will never experience. The interesting thing is that Shakespeare defined the lives of these two men centuries before either of them was born: “Cowards die a thousand deaths. The valiant taste of death but once.”

Union Pains

Posted by Chrissy the Hyphenated

Click graphics to embiggen

The big unions in this country have become the evil they were originally created to stop.

At the end of October, the president of the United Steelworkers international union, Leo Gerard, declared on television and in his union blog that the Wall Street occupiers speak for unions. He also called for more “militancy” in the protesters behavior.

Three days later, the Occupy Oakland protest turned violent.

The following is excerpted from a transcript of Gerard’s interview with Ed Schultz (sources all linked below):

I think what we need is, we need more militancy. I think we’ve got to start a resistance movement. We oughta be doing more than occupying parks. We oughta start occupying  bridges. We start oughta occupying the banks places themselves.

Are we hearing any massive condemnation of liberal speech inciting violence? Of course not!

If Wall Street occupation doesn’t get the message, I think we’ve got to start blocking bridges and doing that kind of stuff. This doesn’t have to be this way. The economy doesn’t have to be this way. It’s being put this way because the Wall Streeters are getting their way.

Wall Streeters are getting their way? Leo Gerard is an adviser to President Obama who also serves on the board of a number of groups funded by billionaire George Soros, including organizations that reportedly helped to craft Obama’s “stimulus” and health-care laws.

More inaccurate and semi-literate statements from Gerard’s interview:

Then we lost the House ’cause the House got blamed for what the Senate didn’t do and now we got a bunch of right-wing nutjobs running the House of Representatives. And in the last period of time, what do we got now, almost two years, a year and a half, that the only thing they’ve done is bring forward social bills, they haven’t brought forward one jobs bill, not one jobs bill, Ed, not one jobs bill and that’s what they ran on.

Note to Leo: The Republicans took control of the House in January of 2011. That would be ten months ago, not “almost two years, a year and a half.” Before that, Democrats had control of the House and the Senate for four years and then added the White House for two more years. And, BTW, that “what the Senate didn’t do”? That was the Democrat-majority Senate that didn’t and still isn’t doing.

I think there’s a reason this moron is working in the same cushy employment sector as government workers. He wouldn’t last 5 minutes in the private sector!

ITA with what Jack Coleman of Newsbusters had to say:

“Perhaps after union members are released on bail following their arrests for occupying bridges and banks and, in the process, harming countless working people just trying to do their jobs, they might want to consider occupying the offices of amply compensated union leaders, including Gerard.”

Here are a few facts about the 7 largest unions in the United States:

National Education Association (NEA)
Federal campaign contributions last election cycle: 3.7 million
Percent to Democrats: 98%
Union President’s 2009 salary and benefits: $397,721

Service Employees International Union (SEIU)
Federal campaign contributions (2009-2010): $2 million
Percent to Democrats: 99.5%
Union President’s 2009 salary and benefits: $306,388

United Food & Commercial Workers (UFCW)
Federal campaign contributions (past two years): $1.9 million
Percent to Democrats: 99%
Union President’s 2009 salary and benefits: $360,737

International Brotherhood of Teamsters (Teamsters)
Federal campaign contributions (past two years): 2.35 million
Percent to Democrats: 98%
Union President’s 2009 salary and benefits: $362,869

American Federation of State, County & Municipal Employees (AFSCME)
Federal campaign contributions (past two years): 2.313 million
Percent to Democrats: 99.4%
Union President’s 2009 salary and benefits: $479,328

Laborers’ International Union of North America (LIUNA)
Federal campaign contributions (past two years): $1.7 million
Percent to Democrats: 95%
Union President’s 2009 salary and benefits: $618,000

American Federation of Teachers (AFT)
Federal campaign contributions (past two years): $2.4 million
Percent to Democrats: 99.5%
Union President’s 2009 salary and benefits: $428,284

Political Affiliation of Americans

At the beginning and end of the time period during which the largest unions’ leaders were donating 95+% of all campaign contributions into Democrat coffers, Americans were more or less evenly divided between the two major parties.

January 2009: Democrat 51% vs. Republicans 41%

December 2010: Democrat 44% vs. Republicans 48%

(GALLUP: Includes leaners)

The money the unions donated to Democrats-Only was garnished from union workers’ wages. Union workers are Americans, not Democrats! I pity all the non-Leftist unionized workers whose hard-earned money is skimmed from their paychecks whether they like it or not, then used to help elect people they don’t want in office. (E.g., Todd Palin’s union used his dues to send “Sarah sucks” mailings to its members.)

There is an excellent website that keeps track of union abuses.

Two recent items I saw posted there:

Bad teachers are impossible to fire

The Albany Times Union has a must-read report today that demonstrates just how difficult it is to fire a misbehaving educator in New York state. How difficult? Teachers who were late 101 times, downloaded porn on their work computers, and beat students all remained on the job after a costly appeals process. The problem is so bad that many districts don’t even bring cases because of the cost.

Chicago bosses take multiple pensions

Bosses in the Laborers International Union of North America (LIUNA) are set to receive benefits from two and even three pension funds upon retirement from their positions. This despite a state pension law that prohibits union members who receive city pensions from “receiving credit in any pension plan established by the local labor organization based on his employment by the organization.”
