Obama, Progressives and Jews Lumped Together as Nazis

CPAC has enlarged the GOP rhetoric to smash mouth proportions.
Breitbart to "progressives": "[W]e are going to come after you so hard you will have no idea what you have awoken in this country"
Emboldened by the Muslim victories against the USA, the Muslim immigrants in Sweden have embarked on a hate campaign to rid that nation of Jews.

The leftist popular style in Germany is to consider Jews as Nazis.

Rush Limbaugh's great wish is that Obama and the Progressives pilot the American Ship of State underwater sunk by debt and abysmal leadership. He wants to vindicate the Bush Administration. He is banking on fear.
There are too many US Progressives who have enlisted in the army of hatred and fear.

Progressives Avoid Success as a Plague

Having developed rabbit ears for the right-wing taunt of "liberal media bias," reporters, editors, producers, and pundits seemed determined during the Bush years to prove how un-liberal they really were. In the process, the press abandoned its traditional watchdog role and morphed instead into lapdogs. Media Matters

Many Progressives revel in membership in a righteous minority that always loses. This way they have an excuse. Whatever goes wrong they are not guilty of it because they rarely commit to any ideal. Their participation is at the periphery easy to escape when the Police begin to use taser pistols.
They couldn't wait to jump off the Obama bandwagon. The only Progressive President since Teddy Roosevelt, Obama has come closer to health reform than any other.
This explains my motivation for a tip of the cap to Harry Reid. This also explains why OEN members did not comment on this article. Winners make them nervous.

Are You Just Finding This Out?

My grandfather could have told you this 120 years ago. He named my father Clarence after the famous defense attorney Clarence Darrow. The called him the attorney for the damned. Why were they damned? They were blacks, women and members of despised religious minorities wrongly accused by a totally corrupt and godless society.
Abraham Lincoln lied. Liberty and justice existed for slave owners of blacks in the south and of whites in the north. Lincoln was a shill for the special interests with the gift of oratory the Barack Obama of his day.
In the 1950's any kid with 25 cents could buy a Ballantine paperback. Muckrakers wrote the inside story of Washington. Every Senator indulged in white slavery, influence peddling, graft or any number of other departures from acceptable norms.
People don't change.

The Persecution of Al Gore

The orgy of resentment that erupted toward Gore during the 2000 campaign season was likely unprecedented in American politics, as media elites did very little to hide their disdain for Gore. For years, they mocked him, bad-mouthed him, and made up nasty stories about him.

Media Matters

"[T]he 300 media types watching in the press room at Dartmouth were, to use the appropriate technical term, totally grossed out by it. Whenever Gore came on too strong, the room erupted in a collective jeer, like a gang of 15-year-old Heathers cutting down some hapless nerd."

Eric Pooley, Time Magazine

On January 23, 2009, the topic on the table was the administration's proposed economic stimulus package and whether the White House, which was hoping for a bipartisan effort on the legislation, would be disappointed if the bill passed with little or no Republican support. And that's when Todd asked Robert Gibbs the following:

Would [the President] veto a bill if it didn't have Republican support?

Todd's absurd query highlighted the unheard-of double standard the press constructed for the new Democratic president. Namely, when addressing the issue of bipartisanship (i.e. "involving cooperation, agreement, and compromise between two major political parties") the press decided to hold only one of the political parties accountable: the Democrats. Bipartisanship was now something Democrats had to bring to fruition. Chuck Todd, msnbc

My bookend quotes capture how the "liberal" Beltway press corps changed the rules to cover Gore at the beginning of the decade and Obama at the end of it. And how did the same press corps spend the years between Gore and Obama? Lying down for Bush, of course. Having developed rabbit ears for the right-wing taunt of "liberal media bias," reporters, editors, producers, and pundits seemed determined during the Bush years to prove how un-liberal they really were.

Here is a recent example of the ABC media sell-out.

Organ Harvesting Happens in 191 Other Countries

Israelis know they must accompany a loved one in the operating room if they want him to survive intact.
As in stolen cars, the parts are worth more than the entire body.
The body parts trade exists everywhere. Why is the ABC news article about Israel worthy of special note? Jason Paz

ABC News.com reported on organ harvesting in Israel. Posted by Stanimal on the OEN home page news, ABC has removed the article.

I'm tempted just to let Jason Paz comment on this one.
How does organ removal compare with drone bombing? For fork's sake.

by GLloyd Rowsey

Organ Removal is Worse than Drone Bombing Jason Paz

At least, a drone bomb has a good chance of killing the victim outright. In hospital the victim may suffer for days while the doctors take out parts one by one. Parts from living victims fetch higher prices.
GLloyd,
Please drop me an e-mail whenever you see an article such as this about anywhere in the world. The stories from the Mexican border are particularly sad.

It will become interesting if NBC continues to bash Obama after the mangled health bill passes. Will David Gregory on Meet the Press remain a prominent shill for Boeing and the corporations? Will Progressives dote on the Main Stream Media for information?

Will Tea Baggers and Progressives Unite?

Will Tea Baggers and Progressives Find Common Cause?

Many Progressives feel betrayed by the announced escalation. Many have the gut feel it is morally wrong. Others see the needs at home that won't be met.
Many Tea Baggers reflect a strong isolationist theme expressed most articulately by Ron Paul. "Stop meddling in other nations affairs." Forty-nine percent of Americans now agree we have vital issues at home.
"Yankee go home. Your mama is calling you!"

A Hostile Federal Government

Government Officials Are Enemy Combatants
The latest trick is to print 'Monopoly' money at $800 billions a clip. The Bushco is digging a big hole for the country. So far, the citizens have jumped into the hole and have pulled the dirt in after them.
Will the newly elected officials address the perceived needs of the ordinary people? Will the Progressives monitor and review policies in terms of relevance to these needs? Will they lapse into useless ideological ranting? Time will tell.

Progressives Don't Know Jack About America

Progressives Have No Idea of America's Culture

If I may paraphrase from the movie The Departed, this is America. If you aint rich, you are a douch bag.

McCain defines 'rich' as making over $5,000,000 per year. True to his words, John treats the rest of us as douch bags. As long as he bashes the Negro in the head, the ton of racists in the USA don't mind the douch bag treatment.

To paraphrase The Departed again, cops become cops because they can smash a plate glass window with a Negro's head.

America adores crooks. The gangster movies most popular, we must see 'Swordfish' to learn about our country. To know progressives, we can watch Mike Dukakis answer Bernard Shaw in the 1988. "What would you do to the man who raped and murdered Kitty Dukakis?" When Mike gave his spiel against capital punishment, he lost the election.

When reporters became too critical of George H W Bush, the President gave the order for his CIA to drown them in bathtubs. As long as Andrea Mitchell remains above water, the media will denounce Obama.

What Would George Do?

What Would George Do?

If George Bush wanted to promote an impeachment, he would declare his Congressional opponents as enemy combatants. Thrown into Gitmo without trial or communication, they would have little chance of contesting for their seats.

Any newly elected Congressman reluctant to follow orders could sit in Gitmo as well.

Progressives lack intestinal fortitude. Mike Dukakis provided sufficient example. If his wife were raped and murdered, he would not support the death penalty for the culprit.

Every woman asked. "If he won't protect [avenge] his wife, how can he protect me?"

If Progressives [Congressmen] can't impeach Bush, they can sit in jail for fortitude training.

The Progressive Millennial Generation

The Millennial Progressive Generation

AMANDA LOGAN
Generation Progressive thenation.com The Millennial generation has always been perceived as socially liberal, but today's young people have progressive views on the economy as well. Not only do Millennials have more progressive economic views than any other age group, but they also believe that increased public investments in health care, education, and other areas are necessary to ensure strong and sustainable economic growth. Furthermore, Millennials reject the conservative viewpoint that government is the problem, and they don't necessarily believe that free markets always have the answers.
