David Axelrod States the Obama Thinks That Boston Marathon Bombing Related to “Tax Day”

And the liberal lie smear game just keeps on coming.  Former Clinton adviser and current Obama minion, David Axlerod, is suggesting that the President himself thinks that “tax day” is the motivation for the Boston Marathon bombing. As you can see, this was another Alinsky type attack.  It was a bit more subtle.  It was like saying, we really don’t know, but it was tax day, wink-wink, nudge-nudge, and David Axelrod is an expert at it.

According the DHS and CIAC, We Christians are Taking God and the Bible “too Seriously”

And, the war on Christians continues to ramp up.  The Clash Daily has printed a letter from a Colorado law enforcement officer, who claims to have attended a training provided by CIAC, which is a “fusion center.”  These centers exchange information between state and local law enforcement agencies, and DHS.  We looked at how these centers work back in 2009, when the infamous DHS report was preceded by the equally offenseive MIAC report.  Here is the letter… From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: CSP Training Date: Fri, 5 Apr 2013 10:30:22 -0600 On April 1, 2013 I attended training in La [...]

The Psychology of Gun Control

Last week, I saw a picture that shows the psychology of gun control perfectly.  Here’s the pic… The real psychology of gun control is far more subtle than the public debate would imply.  It is also far more powerful.  The state always wants order, and power.  While order is desirable, the state’s means of enforcing it is shown by the man with the whip.  It is based on fear, threats, and injustice.  It is not just, it is violence.  As for the people?  Most of them bowed.   But when one stood up, others were emboldened to stand as well, [...]

More Reactions from the SWATting of Aaron Walker

Since my post late last evening, there have been some more developments in the Aaron Walker/Brett Kimberlin story.  First off, Walker himself posted on the matter… So anyone following along on twitter know the basics.  I was SWATted tonight.  My wife was down in the basement, and unknown to me she had fallen asleep in an uncomfortable position while watching TV.  I was just finishing up a post where I was going to share Kimberlin’s nutty response to my motion for a partial stay when someone decided to recklessly endanger my life. I mean again.  Let’s not forget the last time [...]

The Other McCain Forced Into Hiding by Convicted Bomber? It’s More Likely Than You Think

Sometimes, blogging takes a dark turn-namely when a blogger encounters someone who does not like being a topic of attention.  Enter then, the strange case of Brett Kimberlin, the convicted terrorist that has not reacted kindly to being under the careful examination of Stacey McCain.  Rather than rehashing the entire  situation, here is a quote from Stacey himself… FROM AN UNDISCLOSED LOCATION Convicted terrorist Brett Kimberlin on Monday continued his effort to silence those who write about his criminal past by contacting my wife’s employer, claiming that I was “harassing” him. The resulting security concern required immediate relocation if I was [...]

Ending Bullying With Even More Bullying: Or is it Really About Attacking Dissent? UPDATED

We have frequently noted that one of the main goals of leftists is to silence dissent.  If they try to argue based on facts, they tend to fall flat on their faces.  So, the next best thing is to attack and discredit anyone that disagrees with them, attempting to silence them with wave after wave of ridicule, intimidation and abuse.  For the latest example, we need to look at the incredibly ironic, and excessively hypocritical efforts to end bullying.  While everyone would agree that actual bullying should be combated, it isn’t the real agenda, at least not for our leftist neighbors.

Did Anyone Catch Obama Using Hilary Rosen to Play Good Cop-Bad Cop with Ann Romney?

Well, I get home from work and grocery shopping to see that we had an interesting story unfold.  Hilary Rosen, a Dem operative, slammed Mitt Romney’s wife, Ann, for being a stay-at home mom.  Legal Insurrection has the video… So then, we have a Democratic operative, belittling the wife of the likely GOP candidate.  On the surface, one might just think that this was a typical Alinskyite smear, and it was.  However, there is another layer to it, but we’ll get to it in a bit.  As for the next move, Ann Romney fired back, and destroyed Rosen… Then, we see that [...]

Pro-Palestinian Group Stalks Jewish Students

Apparently, making a political point means intimidating people that might disagree with you.  The “palestinians” have learned that from the Alinskyites, and is putting it into practice at Atlantic University.  GateWay Pundit has more… This is a harassment. The radical Palestinian students should be expelled. YNet reported: Some 200 Jewish students attending Atlantic University receive fake eviction notice sent by pro-Palestinian activists More than 200 Jewish students attending Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton, were surprised to find “eviction notices” posted to their dorm room doors on Friday. The students later found out that the fake notices were placed by the Students for [...]

President Obama Darkly Threatens Supreme Court; Does His Behavior Fit Definition of Bullying?

President Obama is a bully. Bullying is a form of aggressive behavior manifested by the use of force or coercion to affect others, and this is exactly what President Obama is attempting to do with his latest speech in which he darkly threatened the Supreme Court regarding their impending decision regarding Obamacare, saying I’m confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress. His behavior, as I have demonstrated on this blog repeatedly, is bullying, especially because it is habitual in nature (done many [...]

Are Conservative Bloggers Being Targeted?

Recently, there have been reports of people using the identity of Conservative bloggers, and attempting to ruin their credibility.  Zilla has her experience here… Please be aware that leftists have taken to committing identity theft to impersonate me in comments sections of blogs and are using a fraudulent email that looks similar to my public email address to make it look as if I am saying horrible offensive things in an attempt to destroy my reputation, apparently because I did well in a recent contest for political bloggers, they have been doing this to the winner of the contest, The Lonely Conservative, [...]

Limbaugh Advertiser to Liberals: Bring it!

I’ve said, quite a few times, that while the leftists have an impressive punch, their play book is paper thin.  They do the typical astroturf email and phone harassment campaigns, send in thugs by the busload, and do the typical harassment of children, employers, and business associates.  However, in reality, they are very small, yet highly organized.  They count on being far more noisy than their actual influence would indicate.  In other words, they make a ton of noise, but it’s just that-noise.  Then, if one buys into the “fact” that the protesters actually represent anything more than the Democratic party, they give in, and the [...]

Anatomy of an Occupy Disruption: Prevent Free Speech, Then Claim to be Victims When Thwarted

We’ve been dissecting the activities and tactics of Occupy Wall Street for some time now.  We’ve exposed their efforts to create another “Kent State,” by attacking police.  We’ve shown them using children as human shields, and attacking people that disagree with them, or even trying to record their activities.  Right along those same lines are their efforts to derail free speech by disrupting events that they do not like.  They have a game plan: 1.  Infiltrate an event. 2.  Disrupt the event so thoroughly, that the opposition cannot speak. 3.  And, if anyone tries to stop them, they claim to be the victims. For the [...]

Media Matters and the Alinsky Method: Leftist Tactics on Display

Over the last three years, we’ve tried to illustrate how the political left deals with those that disagree with them.  What we usually see is a display of intimidation, disinformation, and outright lies.  Rather than argue facts, and use reason, they all too often resort to the dark art of the smear.  The idea is not to disprove the arguments of their critics, or to convince others of their own merits.  Instead, they seek to destroy their crititcs, making the argument personal rather than factual. As many of you know, The Daily Caller is publishing a series of articles on [...]

Alinsky to G. Romney to M. Romney to Soros?

alinsky romney soros

All our regulars here know that I am supporting Newt Gingrich in his run for the GOP nomination for President. After the Florida votes came in, as I was channel surfing I heard some faceless pundit say something about Romney being the only candidate who can beat Obama. Well, considering that even after 11 – 14 million dollars spent by Romney in Florida, he still only got a plurality, not a majority. This got me to thinking about his viability and the myriad different stances he has taken on issues. I also remember hearing on the Mark Levin radio show [...]

Coming Soon: The Purge of the TV Weathermen

global warming hoax

It seems that not enough TV weathermen are spreading the word about Climate Change The Big Lie.  Consequently, lefties are promoting an offensive to either convert, or get rid of those that hold fast to the truth.  Weasel Zippers has more… Concerned that too many “deniers” are in the meteorology business, global warming activists this month launched a campaign to recruit local weathermen to hop aboard the alarmism bandwagon and expose those who are not fully convinced that the world is facing man-made doom. The Forecast the Facts campaign — led by 350.org, the League of Conservation Voters and the Citizen Engagement Lab [...]

Keeping the Ignorant Feeling Informed

“There’s nothing I like less than bad arguments for a view that I hold dear” – Daniel Dennett A good friend of mine, one whom I never enjoy being on the opposite end of an argument with, explained to me that in order to properly argue for a belief that you hold true, you should not only want to present good arguments, but deny bad arguments.  It seems simple enough, but in practice we consistently fail – especially in politics. Politics has become a cesspool for talking points and half truth rhetoric.  Few actually know the principles or intricacies behind the topic they are [...]

Occupod Plans for 2012 Revealed?

We’ve been saying that the Occupods were going to come back in the spring, and we assumed that they were going to have a switch in tactics.  After all, large, static protests puts all of their rather unsavory tendencies on public display.  MSN Money has some details.. Warning; OWS tells us America’s going to be shocked by not one but hundreds of wake-up calls in 2012. How? In a recent Washington Post column, OWS leaders say they are accelerating their battle strategy in 2012. In what amounts to a new declaration of war that promises to electrify the 2012 elections, [...]

Alinsky’s Rules Explained Part II: Rules Five Through Eight

A few months ago, I posted videos highlighting Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals.  These videos, originally posted by Campus Reform, are a great resource.  They have released some more, so here are videos covering Rules 5-8. These are great tools, and I would argue that they are even more powerful in the hands of Conservatives and Libertarians, who tend to use truth.

Occupods Try to Persuade Consumers and Retail Workers by Insulting Them

I wonder if the Occupods realize that insulting people, or otherwise getting in the way of people doing what they want, doesn’t exactly win their “hearts and minds.” Given the events of yesterday, probably not.  The Occupods tried to disrupt Black Friday, and it seemed to be rather counter-productive, given some of the video footage.  Here is some coverage from GateWay Pundit… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnRaFkN2MBU&feature=player_embedded Then, here is some more from Labor Union Report… I think that in the long run, the Occupods are going to find that using Alinsky on the entire consumer base is just going to tick people off.

Alinsky's Rules Explained

alinskyexploitable4-6-10

As well all know, the regressives love to follow Saul Alinsky’s rules for radicals.  We also know that the first edition 0f that book was dedicated to Satan-go figure.  At any rate, I saw a video at Campus Reform that explains some of the rules, as well as ways they can be turned against the regressives.  I also did some searching, and saw that there are four videos, so far, in a series.  Here they are…. I hope they make more.  They are short, but very informative. Related posts: NEA Recommends Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals Latest EPA Rules to [...]

Founder of BET doesn't understand what Obama is doing

zombiesdemocrats

Robert Johnson, the founder of BET, has apparently been a successful man.  And, as a successful man, he is in the cross-hairs of the President’s math class warfare.  He has spoken out on the President’s recent attacks against the rich successful job creators. I don’t think that Mr. Johnson is quite understanding the dynamic here. The idea IS to attack the successful for being successful. You see, Mr. Johnson, the regressives are attempting to “fundamentally transform” destroy this country. In order to achieve that end, they have to cause massive economic failure via Cloward-Piven. However as they do so, they [...]

Union Professors Preach Alinsky: Intimidation, Threats, and Lies

Earlier, we saw the lefty professors from University of Missouri-St. Louis (UMSL) and University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC) advocating violence as a standard operating procedure.  Next, you’ll see some classic Alinsky styled intimidation… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckWDQbvkjE0&feature=player_embedded I think the video speaks for itself. We’ve been noting that the “progressives” don’t even bother to hide their affiliation and plans anymore.  I don’t know if this is hubris, stupidity, or both, but it gives us an incredible opportunity to let the public see what these folks are really all about. I would encourage everyone to make these videos viral, and archive them.  I don’t think [...]
