I Got a New Microphone

March 31, 2009 · Leave a Comment

I spent a hundred dollars on a quality microphone, after going through two different cheapos Logitch (valued at $20) and Mircosoft (valued at $50), both of which have given me extremely poor sound quality. Below is a picture of the microphone, which I plan to use on my radio show as soon as it comes in the mail. Tune in Saturday nights at 11 pm EST for the Confederate Underground.

Angie Harmon: I’m Not Racist Because I Disagree With Obama

March 31, 2009 · Leave a Comment

This actress should tread carefully. If she isn’t careful, she may be blacklisted for her views, if she hasn’t already been blacklisted for her views. Now, racism is just leftist jargon for “failure to believe that all the races are equal.” Thus, it wouldn’t hurt for her to be a racist as far as God and truth is concerned. But it would hurt her career to say this, though she probably isn’t aware of this fact anyway. Nobody wakes up one day and thinks to himself, “I’m bored, so I’m just gonna hate people who look different from me.” It doesn’t work that way.

Of course, the races are not all equal, and there are racial differences between us that account for differences in behavior. But in the case of Obongo, raising this issue would be an unnecessary distraction. Talking about how Obongo is half-negro and half-White-trash would take the focus off of what’s really wrong with the man, and that’s his Obominable performance as a socialist/leftist fascist who probably isn’t even legally fit to stand as President, in which case he isn’t even a President, but a faux President, just as (many traditional Catholics believe that) the current Pope is not a real Pope.

Angie Harmon is not afraid to come out and say she doesn’t like how President Obama is handling the job — but she’s sick of having to defend herself from being deemed a racist.

“Here’s my problem with this, I’m just going to come out and say it. If I have anything to say against Obama it’s not because I’m a racist, it’s because I don’t like what he’s doing as President and anybody should be able to feel that way, but what I find now is that if you say anything against him you’re called a racist,” Harmon told Tarts at Thursday’s Los Angeles launch of the new eyelash-growing formula, Latisse. “But it has nothing to do with it, I don’t care what color he is. I’m just not crazy about what he’s doing and I heard all about this, and he’s gonna do that and change and change, so okay … I’m still dressing for a recession over here buddy and we’ve got unemployment at an all-time high and that was his number one thing and that’s the thing I really don’t appreciate. If I’m going to disagree with my President, that doesn’t make me a racist. If I was to disagree with W, that doesn’t make me racist. It has nothing to do with it, it is ridiculous.”

Key 9/11 Witness “Commits Suicide”

March 30, 2009 · Leave a Comment

The government killed this handsome, intelligent man because he knew too much.

Brasscheck TV: Key 9/11witness “commits suicide”

Witnesses to WTC Explosions

Brasscheck TV:
Bombs in the basement
The Daily News reported yesterday that Kenny Johannemann – a key witness in the WTC 9/11 bombings – recently committed suicide.

I call him a key witness because in spite of aggressive prodding from reporters about “the planes,” he clearly called what happened on the upper floors of the World Trade Center “explosions.”

More important, Johannemann reported a massive explosion in the basement of one of the Twin Towers and rescuing someone who received full body burns from an explosion that took place at the base – not the top – of the building.

(The Daily News obscured this part of the story in their report today.)

The suicide note purportedly left by Johannemann stated that he had “lost friends and family” over “his drinking” which the letter attributes to his depression since 9/11.

Picture suicide note:
http://www.vonni.net/suicide%20note.html
Here is the entire text of the note as reported in the Daily News:

“The reason I killed myself was ’cause I was getting evicted and can’t handle homelessness. I was also very depressed since 9/11. I’ve been drinking way too much and it’s ruined my life. I’ve lost friends and family over drinking and I’m very lonely. There is nothing left for me to be happy about other than my cat. Sounds weird, but it’s true. I just wanted to say I’m sorry 2 any people I ever hurt in my life. I really was a good person when I wasn’t drinking. I hope people remember that.

Goodbye!!!

Kenny Johannemann”

I wonder if the person who wrote this suicide note bothered to spend any time listening to Johannemann speak.

Johannemann had a large extended family and large social network which, according to his cousin Gerald Maya, universally held him in high regard. Maya had offered him a place to live.

You have to ask yourself two thing:

1. Would a man shoot himself in the head because he faced eviction when he had a family and social safety net like that?

2. Would someone as well spoken as Johannemann demonstrated himself to be on live TV, write a suicide note that sounds more like a teen aged boy’s text message than a grown man’s final testament?

Keep in mind that there are other people, more visible than Johannemann, who are actively telling the same story he did in public venues. You can bet that Johannemann’s “suicide” has sent them a message loud and clear about their safety or lack of it.

In case you were concerned about them, these eye witnesses are alive and well:
I saw the planes, the fire melted the buildings and (long term CIA asset) Osama bin Laden did it!

I’ve been wanderin’ through this wasteland Where the blind go leading the blind

March 25, 2009 · Leave a Comment

They don’t make music like they used to. With the dumbing down of society, we’re lucky to come upon a song half as good as this produced today.

I was caught up in a fever
In that summer of ‘69
And my heart was cryin’ out for change
And I knew time was comin’ when I’d get away.

So I moved down to that city
Where I met a friend of mine
And I must admit he tried to warn me well
With all those bad luck stories he could tell.

He said “Take the money and run,
Take the money and run
Believe it, in this town you can’t trust anyone
You’re gonna learn that lesson my son”.

“Take the money and run,
Buy yourself a place in the sun
Don’t be a fool, don’t you trust anyone
You gotta take the money and run, take the money and run”.

He was broken, he was wasted
He’d been brought down to his knee
And his heart was crying out for truth
You could see the whole world’s sadness in his eyes.

So I took good care of business
At least as far as I could see
I could read the signs and I knew all the lines
But so many times his voice came back to me.

“Take the money and run,
Get it at the point of a gun
Believe it, in this town you can’t trust anyone
You’re gonna learn that lesson my son”.

“Take the money and run,
Buy yourself a place in the sun
Don’t be a fool, don’t you trust anyone
You gotta take the money and run, take the money and run”.

I’ve been wanderin’ through this wasteland
Where the blind go leading the blind
And the only sound on the money-go-round
Was the million voices waiting to be found.

I could only hear a whisper
It was comin’ from the one I loved
And her heart was saying this can’t be right
All my wasted days and all her lonely nights.

Take the money and run,
Get it at the point of a gun
Believe it, n this town you can’t trust anyone
You’re gonna learn that lesson my son.

Take the money and run,
Buy yourself a place in the sun
Don’t be a fool, don’t you trust anyone
You gotta take the money and run, take the money and run.

Poem Reveals Real Motive Behind Third Reich

March 20, 2009 · Leave a Comment

This famous poem “attributed to Pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984) about the inactivity of German intellectuals following the Nazi rise to power and the purging of their chosen targets, group after group,” according to Wikipedia, illustrates that Hitlers beef was not mainly with the Jews; it was with the Communists/Leftists, and the Jews were targeted only because many in their fallen ranks were at the vanguard of the Communist/Leftist movement there. That does not excuse the approach taken by Hitler, but it does explain why the Third Reich came to power in Germany.

When the Nazis came for the communists,
I remained silent;
I was not a communist.

Then they locked up the social democrats,
I remained silent;
I was not a social democrat.

Then they came for the trade unionists,
I did not speak out;
I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for the Jews,
I did not speak out;
I was not a Jew.

When they came for me,
there was no one left to speak out for me.

2009 Taxpayer Tea Party

March 18, 2009 · 1 Comment

The taxpayer tea parties were wildly successful! Thank you to everyone who planned or participated in a tea party. But the movement is just beginning, and we need your help. We were able to organize dozens of tea parties around the country in less than a week, but now we must begin to plan bigger events in more cities, leading up to Tax Day on April 15th!

All we need from you is a location, date and time in your city, and an agreement to get any needed permits, and we will add your tea party to the list on this page. Look for email updates from our chairman, Dick Armey, soon. And please tell all your friends to join us at IamWithRick.com and FreedomWorks.org!

The Tea Party movement must focus on reaching out to all Americans who are upset about the bankrupting of our country. When planning a protest, don’t just turn to political activists, but also your friends, family and colleagues that agree with you that spending is out of control, and the bailouts must END.

Missouri Report on Militias, Terrorists Draws Criticism

March 18, 2009 · Leave a Comment

One man’s militia is another man’s only hope for liberty in an unfree country, and a perfectly Constitutional answer to dictatorship.

COLUMBIA, Mo. | A new document meant to help Missouri law enforcement agencies identify militia members or domestic terrorists has drawn criticism for some of the warning signs mentioned.

The Feb. 20 report called “The Modern Militia Movement” mentions such red flags as political bumper stickers for third-party candidates, such as U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, who ran for president last year; talk of conspiracy theories, such as the plan for a superhighway linking Canada to Mexico; and possession of subversive literature.

Obama the Idiot

March 18, 2009 · Leave a Comment

The man needs a teleprompter at a party? How pathetic. Somebody get this clown out of the White House.

Obama In St Patrick’s Day Teleprompt Blunder

12:26pm UK, Wednesday March 18, 2009

A teleprompt blunder has led to Barack Obama thanking himself in a speech at the White House in a St Patrick’s Day celebration. Barack Obama and Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen Obama and the Irish PM share the joke during their joint address Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen was just a few paragraphs into an address in Washington when he realised it all sounded a bit too familiar. It was. He was repeating the speech President Barack Obama had just read from the same teleprompter. Mr Cowen stopped, turned to the president and said: “That’s your speech.” A laughing Mr Obama returned to the podium to take over but it seems the script had finally been switched and the US president ended up thanking himself for inviting everyone to the party. Mr Obama is an accomplished orator but is becoming known in America as the “teleprompt president” over his reliance on the machine when he gives a speech. The Obama 100 The Obama 100 red chevron Follow Sky’s Adam Boulton as he covers the new President’s first 100 days in office. Earlier in the day, the president claimed an Irish ancestry, saying his mother’s family could be traced back to Ireland. He joked to Cowen: “We may be cousins. We haven’t sorted that through yet.” Speaking in the Oval Office, he told the Irish premier:”Not all Americans are Irish but all Americans support those who stand on the side of peace and peace will prevail.” The fountains at the White House were dyed green for the day at the request of the First Lady and guests at the cocktail reception drank green sparkling wine from a Californian vineyard. Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Paul Muldoon from Northern Ireland and Maggie McCarthy, a traditional Irish dancer and musician from Cork, and the vocal group Celtic Thunder all attended. Mr Obama joked about the free-flowing bar and warned his guests not to wear lampshades on their heads in front of the cameras.

The Case of Henrik Hopalla

March 18, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Looks like Finland is an evil dictatorship, and it looks like America is not far from it, either.

The case of Henrik Hopalla

On July 11th 2008 a 23 year old Finish National by the name of Henrik Holappa legally entered the United States in hopes of obtaining asylum from the politically motivated charges being brought against him in his native country. The Finnish Government, and their security police; SUPO, have deemed Henrik Holappa a criminal for violating their countries speech laws because of an essay that he published and distributed over the internet criticizing the media and the governments conduct regarding the recent gang rapes of numerous Finnish woman.

On October 10th 2008 an Affirmative Application for Asylum and Withholding of Removal was officially submitted by his lawyer to the US Department of Citizenship and Immigration services. On December 9th 2008 he appeared before the Immigration Court in Philadelphia, PA for his Asylum hearing where he was issued another notice to appear before the very same court on July 21st 2009.

And on Monday, March 9th 2009 at approximately 11:30am, while driving with friends, Henrik was pulled over, searched and arrested by the Dept. of Homeland Security’s Joint Terrorism Taskforce who later interrogated him about his political views and affiliations here and in the country of Finland. He is currently being held at the Buffalo Federal Detention Facility in Batavia New York awaiting further actions, which will most likely result in his deportation and imprisonment for violating Finnish speech laws.

Welcome to the Appleseed Project

March 13, 2009 · Leave a Comment

What the RWVA (Revolutionary War Veterans Association) is all about: The Appleseed Program is designed to take you from being a simple rifle owner to being a true rifleman. All throughout American history, the rifleman has been defined as a marksman capable of hitting a man-sized target from 500 yards away — no ifs, ands or buts about it. This 500-yard range is traditionally known as “the rifleman’s quarter-mile;” a rifleman can hit just about any target he can see. This skill was particulary evident in the birth of our country, and was the difference in winning the Revolutionary War.

Vignets of the Day

March 5, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Sometimes I look around and I wonder “how much of this is caused by affirmative action and unnatural restraints placed on Caucasian success”? You would think that affirmative action is just a minor flourish that has little impact on economic choices because people are just too interested in making money. But the truth is that affirmative action has a great deal to do with a great many hiring practices. Perhaps in some industries more than others. But God knows how much economic damage has been done by it.

His brain’s too small. His brain is too small to process all of the information about the world around him. Never mind that there is an unlimited number of facts to learn. His brain doesn’t process these facts thoroughly. There is a difference between absorbing information and processing information. And he does not process information very well. How well is “well”? How about if you can figure out the meaning of life by the age of 30, then that’s “well”? Actually, it’s relative. Nonetheless, people are getting dumber by the minute.

If I could just press a button and make people wise and moral, I would. But I can’t. All that I can do in life is to control my own actions. I can only control my own affairs, and improve the lot of my own life. I don’t make the world a better place by dwelling on the world’s problems. I make the world a better place by making my life a better place: by focusing on the accomplishment of my goals. The rest is in God’s hands.

How Honesty Can Ruin a Relationship

March 1, 2009 · Leave a Comment

There are two ways to ruin a relationship. One is by being too honest; the other is by being too dishonest. We all know how overtly lying to people can get us into trouble. But today we will focus on how telling the truth might actually work to ruin a relationship.

How would honesty ruin a relationship? Don’t people want to know the truth?

Yes, people want to know the truth. But most people today have egos. What is an ego?

An ego is self-esteem: how much people value their own beliefs and values. But it is also how much people value their egos! Thus, it is an infinite regression. It’s how much people value how much people value how much people value themselves.

If you criticize someone, and if you criticize them too harshly, then you may cause them to question how wise they really are.

What’s wrong with that? Why shouldn’t people question how wise they really are?

The problem is that the ego becomes a tool that helps people to remember the meaning and purpose of life, so that they are wise. People use tools to help them remember the meaning and purpose of life. These tools are called “art.” The ego is an imaginary work of art that serves as a tool to help people remember the meaning and purpose of their lives.

Unless you are totally wise, and unless you don’t need art to get to the truth, you probably have an ego: this idea of how wise you are. And you probably would go to great lengths to protect and defend it.

When people feel that their egos are under attack, they will try to defend them. It’s the way of the world. When you make someone feel foolish, they are no longer interested in having anything to do with you. I have seen it time, and time, and time again. It’s the same old story for geniuses who are significantly wiser than other people. Time and time and time again, the genius clashes with the normal person, thereby scratching the normal person’s ego.

So what do we do about it? How do we navigate through a world of egomaniacs who will reject you, or be malicious towards you, because you threaten their egos?

The answer is that you must be careful not to threaten people’s egos. It’s okay to criticize people, but there is a line that you are not allowed to cross.

One of the best ways to ruin a relationship is to just be honest. And that honesty will wreak havoc and devastation across the fruited plain. That is, if the other person is sufficiently egomaniacal, and you are sufficiently critical of that other person.

With me, I don’t intend to wreak any havoc in any of my relationships. It just naturally happens, when it happens. I don’t intend to “hurt” people with my honesty; I just wind up “hurting” them.

But am I actually hurting them? Am I really subtracting from their wisdom? Or am I adding to it?

That depends on the person. But if you just learn to be kind and not be too harsh on people, then they will stick around. And the more that they stick around, the more that they can learn from you, and the more that they can tolerate your honesty, because the more that they agree with you.

Wise man, take note. Though kindness means nothing to us, because we do not require kindness from human interaction – only honesty – kindness is necessary when interacting with other people.

On a related note, the person with “Asperger Syndrome” is the one whose intelligence and wisdom is so excellent that his honesty would often make normal people feel bad. And so, to protect their egos, normal people would call us “mentally disordered,” and that would help them feel better about themselves. They are sadistic. They strive to find any chink in our armor, and stab their malicious knives right into us. I know. But we still want to lead these people down the right path. So it is important to follow this golden rule of human interaction:

Be honest, but don’t be so honest that your honesty will result in the burning of bridges. Of course, it wouldn’t be we who burn the bridge. It would be they. But in order to maintain friendships with these people, it is important to put kindness over honesty. And eventually, they will not need to be criticized and rebuked, thus treated “unkindly,” because they will be as wise as us.

Kindness over honesty, until kindness isn’t necessary. That’s the lesson of the day.

Article – Eastwood thinks political correctness has made society humourless

March 1, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Clint Eastwood is a rare breed nowadays. He is a member of that endangered species known as real men. And because he is so old, he happened to have found success in Hollywood, albeit not as much success as he should’ve found. Gran Torino should have been nominated for Best Picture of the Year, but the Hollywood Communists couldn’t stomach it.

His sense of humor would indeed be branded “racist,” because if you are honest about race, then you are racist. This is a major problem for people who don’t believe in the lie that everyone is equal. The equality-worshipers would definitely blacklist you.

But there’s not much they can do about Clint Eastwood, is there?

***

Fri, Feb 27 01:15 PM

London, February 27 (ANI): Acting legend Clint Eastwood , 79, apparently believes that political correctness has rendered modern society humourless, for he accuses younger generations of spending too much time trying to avoid being offensive.

The Dirty Harry star insists that he should be able to tell harmless jokes about nationality without fearing that people may brand him “a racist”.
