Defining Despicable Down

Now CAIR is only going after “the racists“.

The only silver lining I see is that they’re squirming due to public pressure. And the more they do so, the more they reveal themselves for the worms they are.

Jabberwocky Bleg

I’ve heard tell of a version of Jabberwocky that uses Washington state place names. I can’t find it. Can you? If so, please leave a comment.

Thanks.

The UN would like to thank…

Here’s the sequel to the UN Watch video posted earlier.

Check out who gets thanked, and who doesn’t.

I Am John Doe

Michelle Malkin has posted the manifesto.

I may even have to buy a button.

CAIR loses one in Congress

In spite of having their very own congressman, the terrorist-supporting CAIR lost a vote in the House of Representatives.

Let the joyous news be spread. (Because the MSM won’t do it.)

Seattle: Building the Worker’s Paradise…

… one kid at a time.

The children were allegedly incorporating into Legotown “their assumptions about ownership and the social power it conveys.” These assumptions “mirrored those of a class-based, capitalist society — a society that we teachers believe to be unjust and oppressive.”

They claimed as their role shaping the children’s “social and political understandings of ownership and economic equity … from a perspective of social justice.”

So they first explored with the children the issue of ownership. Not all of the students shared the teachers’ anathema to private property ownership. “If I buy it, I own it,” one child is quoted saying. The teachers then explored with the students concepts of fairness, equity, power, and other issues over a period of several months.

At the end of that time, Legos returned to the classroom after the children agreed to several guiding principles framed by the teachers, including that “All structures are public structures” and “All structures will be standard sizes.”

You can be sure they think they’re being clever, intelligent and moral by talking that way. Talk about an inversion of values.

Any parent who, after learning of this, lets their kid stay in that school has abrogated his parenthood and committed malfeasance if not child abuse.

Bring on the Hillarycare!

Yes! We need Single-Payer Healthcare!

Just like in Canada!

UN fails to deny it’s a failure

This is jaw-dropping. The head of UN Watch spoke the truth to the UN Human Rights Commission in Geneva, and all he gets from the corrupt president of the commission is the threat to have his remarks stricken from the record.

Note that he does not actually defend the UN against any of the charges. At least the UN creep knows he can’t do that. So consider it a tacit admission of serious moral inversion.

How Modern Liberals Think

If you have about 50 minutes, this is well worth a look.

I feel even better now about my decision to teach my daughter critical thinking. As I told her, I just know she’s not going to get it in school. And learning how to think is as basic and important as reading, writing, and arithmetic.

Free-Market Nanny State

Yes, I know it’s an oxymoron. But you can actually choose to pay your own money to buy an internet content filter, as American Airlines did. The result? You won’t have to see non-PC web sites, because some pinhead in Salt Lake has decreed them “pornography”.

I sent an email to the pinheads in Salt Lake asking if this outrage is really a feature of their software or, perhaps, someone at American Airlines got stoopy with local configuration. I encourage you to do the same.

Would you jump from a plane

strapped to a fifty-year-old parachute? To the Army, it’s a “proven system”. To the soldiers who use them, this upgrade has to come as welcome news.

The new parachutes address increased weight requirements and provide additional safety benefits. Beginning in 2008, all T-10 parachutes in the Army inventory for more than 50 years will be replaced with the Advanced Tactical Parachute System (ATPS) T-11. Although the T-10 is a proven system, today’s paratroopers face increased requirements beyond the T-10’s design.

I’m not ready to hit the ground at “only” 18 fps, let alone packing an extra 200 plus pounds of gear. Those Airborne guys may be crazy, but they’ve got my respect.

Legal Aid for CAIR Targets

Not only are there some real Muslim moderates, but some honest lawyers.

Really. No joke. Talk about a day brightener.

Ice, Ice, Baby

The Z machine has created Ice VII.

That’s very, very hot ice. Which is very, very cool.

Don’t swat that mosquito!

It has glowing eyes!

King David’s Surge

Time for encouraging news about the “surge”.

Are the policies paying off? “King David” as Petraeus is known from his previous tour of duty up near the Syrian border, is cautiously optimistic. “Less than half the al Qaeda leaders who were in Baghdad when this [surge] campaign began are still in the city,” he said. “They have fled or are being killed or captured. We are attriting them at a fearsome rate.”

Child Abuse

Charles was right.

There are no words.

Reprogramming Alert

This video interview a nice little list of some of the techniques which will be used against your kids - and you, if you are a “resister”, by the “educational” establishment.

Short version: If you don’t like the curriculum, don’t take their offer to be on the committee.

And now, a Public Service Announcement

It’s time to do something.

Indoctrinate U.

See the trailer here. Help them get distribution here.

Your Tax Dollars at Work

I heard Joel Mowbray on KSFO this morning mention a couple of scandals. One is that USAID is supporting a terrorist school: Islamic University, in Gaza. So legitimized is that Hamas school now that Intel plans to open a high tech plant and school there.

Perhaps worse, Al-Hurra, which used to be our “Voice of America” in the Arab world, has been turned over to an ex-CNN cronie who has made it more of a terrorist voice than al Jazeera.

That whirring sound is the Bush Doctrine spinning in its grave.
