Red Flags Flying Over Ballot Reformers

Don't say I didn't warn you. These people never learn. They come in here and drop a comment or two with strings attached and think they are teaching me a lesson. When I start pulling on the string and it unravels, ...moonbats are usually attached to the other end. (Examples are Rodger A Payne the "Insurgent sympathizer", the David Podvin Hoax and Dr. Robin Meyers The Pulpit Pundit) This one is no exception.

A few days ago I posted a "Red Flag Warning" titled Don't Get Robbed Oklahoma responding to cries from "Best Political Blog 2006" Okie Funk and Blue Oklahoma (among other extremist moonbat bloggers) urging us to "Reform Oklahoma's Ballot" ("ROB" as I referred to it) based on those posts and the immediate red flags that went up.

A young fellow who goes by J.M. Branum responded to my concerns at his blog and in my comments section with the question "Do you believe the people of Oklahoma are too stupid to chose from more than two choices?" JM went on to accuse me of not representing my chosen causes well (which I would think would be a good thing for him).

JM mistakenly thinks my "cause" is the Republican party, when in fact my only cause is promoting my belief in America, Americans, freedom of religion, God and the traditional (yes, conservative) way of life in America.
(and sometimes racing and music)
Exposing moonbats is more accidental than a cause, but none the less if I do not represent these causes well, then "THAT", Mr. Branum is between me and my causes and God, NOT you ultimately to decide.

But it's funny (not ha-ha, the other kind) and ironic that JM would bring up "CAUSES", as we can see clearly from his blog that JM's causes are part-time Bush hating, Socialism, Marxism and assisting (dare I say inviting, or even encouraging?) men and women who volunteered and signed up FOR the military into avoiding, disobeying, deserting and attacking (legally) that same military and the United States Government (all during a time of war) for fun and profit.
I must compliment JM on representing his causes very-very well.

From the JMBzine, he claims this is an unjust war and also that the U.S. military is "evil"

"...It is frustrating though. I can only do so much. I can’t tell soldiers to break the law (even if it more moral to break the law than to do kill) and I can only do so much to help these soldiers navigate an institution that seems so bent on doing evil. — I should add that while the institution of the Army is about death and killing and evil (I’m sorry but that is how I see it)..."

I also notice from his weblog that one of JM's favorite bloggers is none other than Doc hoc/Okie Funk which brings us back to the ballot issue.

As I stated in the first paragraph of my post "Don't Get Robbed Oklahoma", with bloggers like Okie Funk (who is calling for the complete destruction of the Democratic party and jailing of the Republican party and reconstruction of a new party in his "New Populist Liberal" vision) and Blue Oklahoma (leftwing moonbat Democrats) out leading the big parade to Reform Oklahoma's Ballots and election process and now along comes this "Marxist/deserter-chasing lawyer" who preys on disgruntled ex military for profit and wants to turn OKC into Austin Texas ...(or much worse) is also onboard the "Ballot Reform" insane train... enough already!

More red flags just went up all over the place and a couple of sirens went off too. I don't really need to know any more about this so-called needed legislation. (In fact I say we increase the number of names required on a petition to 85,000 in order to be recognized as a political party and get on the ballots!) If you are a real "voice of the people" even 1/10th of the population should be a snap!
Based on these facts alone, I'm pretty sure this is a bad deal for Oklahoma... unless you think that giving the Socialist, Marxist, New Populist Liberals and other assorted moonbats more power over Oklahoma's voting process is a good thing.
This makes my whole "RED flags" thing take on a whole new perspective though doesn't it?.
The following image is shown here as an example only and is NOT indicating disloyalty to the Government of the United States or a belief in anarchy or other political doctrines or beliefs, whose objects are either the disruption or destruction of organized government, or the defiance of the laws of the United States or of the State of Oklahoma.

The Agrarian Socialist Red Flag is defiantly displayed at JMBzine.com in "celebration of Oklahoma's Agrarian Socialist heritage" AND in intentional violation of what he claims is un-constitutional Oklahoma Statute 21 / 374

Now, to answer the question about the proposed ballot reform and thirteenth party candidates.
In my opinion,
It's simply feel-good/do-nothing fluff in terms of results compared to how it is being sold. Oklahoma already has third party candidates on the ballot such as Independent candidates who are generally Democrats that disagree with the party on one or two issues but vote Democrat party line the rest of the time. States like Colorado who had 13 different party candidates on their ballot only touts a county commissioner, a mayor and a few city council members among victors (mostly Green party) aside from a few Independents. Voters in Colorado still elected the candidates from the two major parties in over 99% of the races proving "Ballot Access" did nothing...
unless you consider an exercise in futility... something. Voters are already turned off by too much mumbo-jumbo issues on the ballots and adding 10-15 more "choices" in several races won't turn anybody on and didn't improve turnout in Colorado to any measurable degree.

In Tulsa (2006) there were not just one but 2 Independent candidates on the ballot for Mayor vs 1 Republican and 1 Democrat... restrictive ballot process?

One new trend that needs to be considered is "fusion" voting as a part of liberal ballot access in states that have passed such laws. Democrats have used this fusion voting technique effectively in other states to get Democrats elected who otherwise might not. In theory Republicans could do this too, but there are far-far more leftwing groups than rightwing groups by a large margin and we have not seen this trend with Republican and other rightwing groups.

Another fact is that they are never satisfied with the ballots or election process unless they are winning as in Colorado where they decided that having 13+ on the ballot isn't enough and tried to "reform" Colorado's electoral process to make Colorado divide it's 9 electoral votes making it essentially worthless with a likely 5/4 split and thus a whopping 1 electoral vote going to the winner instead of 9. Colorado voters rejected the plan.
Don't be surprised (RED FLAGS should go up) when you see them try the same thing in Red-State Oklahoma. (All 77 counties voted BUSH in the 2004 election, but under a "split" scenario it might be much different)

Fuzzy feel-good Marxism and Leftist-Populist agenda or "leave our ballots alone you communists"?
You decide Oklahoma.
Will we Reform Oklahoma's Ballots Before Election Day and get R.O.B.B.E.D. later?
Woody Guthrie and his "flock" are watching and hoping.

UPDATE: 10/01/07- Here is a link to a deserter (as JM describes him) from Oklahoma hiding in Canada that JM is supporting and calling a war-hero listed among a select few other such war hero's at JBMzine.com. This is the guy telling us we need to "reform our ballots" here in Oklahoma.
Someone needs to call "BS" on this guy, but wait, I think I just did.

Petraeus Report Confirmed, Surge Working, Media Not

Engram at BACKTALK has another great post.
He lays out clearly what the anti-war, antiAmerican, Leftwing News Media SHOULD be reporting today and tomorrow, but aren't because it doesn't fit their Bush hating anti American template.

"I had expected the news today to report the astonishingly low number of civilian and military casualties for the month of September. After all, there is an on-going debate about whether or not General Petraeus was betraying his nation by deliberately lying about the improving casualty situation in Iraq. Casualties from the month of September are directly relevant to that debate. In fact, they would appear to settle the issue. Things might get worse down the line, and al Qaeda will certainly manage to sneak in more mass-casualty attacks before this all over, but as of right now the trend in violence is very definitely in the downward direction (just as General Petraeus said was the case)."

But what do people read when they pick up the paper today? This:
Petreaus Admits to Rise in Violence
"Militants with the extremist group Al Qaeda in Iraq have launched a string of deadly bombings in recent weeks, including one this week that killed at least 24 people at a reconciliation meeting between Sunni and Shiite tribal, religious, political and security leaders in the Diyala provincial capital, Baqubah.

At least 11 Iraqis were killed in bomb blasts, mortar and gunfire today. The U.S. military also announced the deaths of two soldiers in small-arms fire, one during combat operations in a southern section of Baghdad and the other in Diyala."

What the media ISN'T telling us is that..."

"...the ICCC already includes those 24 deaths in the 75 deaths for the month that are attributable to al Qaeda's suicide bombers."

OR that...

"As of 8:00 P.M. September 30 (Baghdad time), documented deaths from suicide bombers in the month of September come to a mere 75.
Last month, it was over 600..."

And it's NOT just in Anbar either...


Despite Iraqi casualties being astonishingly LOW and despite the troop surge, US military casualties are way down (see graph below) and considering that this has happened despite the fact that Ramadan began on September 13, and despite the fact that al Qaeda threatened a major offensive during that time, the media hangs on to defeat and refuses to report the successes that are impossible to overlook "accidentally".


Engram concludes that the LA Times and media reporting is "pathetic"...

"That's just pathetic. Would anyone reading this (LA Times) story know that casualties are way down in Iraq? Or would they instead assume that violence continues apace and that our lying general was forced to admit it?
Well, as someone once said, "you go to war with the media you have, not the media you wish you had."

In his previous post at BACKTALK Engram details database numbers to demonstrate the effort to kill, disrupt and defeat America while starting a civil war by Al Qaeda and their failure to do so and concludes that hopefully...

"This may be al Qaeda's last gasp in Iraq. They have bet everything on defeating the troop surge, but it seems that the Democrats in Washington will not come to their rescue in time. Then again, I have mistakenly thought that al Qaeda was suppressed in the past, only to have my hopes dashed by yet another in a long string of spectacular mass-casualty attacks. Time will tell, but the trends seem favorable (finally)."

How long can the left hang on to the hope and dreams of defeat?
We are about to see, but one thing is for sure, it will be pathetic.
-red

UPDATE: 10/01/2007- Al Qaeda in "last throws"? Engram demonstrates today, again using liberal bodycount groups own numbers that not only did the surge "work" but how Shiites are taking on Al Qaeda suicide bombers and demonstrates irrefutably how the US military is absolutely WINNING the war against the terrorists who attacked us on 9/11/2001 and are now focused on Iraq.
Al Qaeda has failed to incite civil war, failed to defeat the surge and thus failed to turn enough Americans off to Bush and the war to win. They will no doubt try and form a "re-surge" to try and offset this HUGE VICTORY for America and Iraqis, but make no mistake, the left has been DEAD WRONG about the war and whether winning is achievable. A US/Iraqi victory is not only achievable, it is being achieved as we speak and is now moving into the "most likely to succeed" category.
-read all about it at BACKTALK if you dare know the truth!

Just heard a blip on KTOK as Engram reports that the Media is slowing, begrudgingly, minimally beginning to REPORT THE TRUTH in small bits, confirming the Petraeus Report. But don't look for them to apologize... much less understand the war, ... BABY STEPS before running with the libs.

Buff's Shock No. 3 Oklahoma

Associated Press
Originally published 03:13 p.m., September 29, 2007

Just as Oklahoma coach Bob Stoops predicted, the third-ranked Sooners couldn’t run it up on Colorado.

In fact, the Sooners couldn’t even beat the Buffaloes.

Kevin Eberhart kicked a career-long 45-yard field goal as time expired to send Colorado past the stunned Sooners 27-24 Saturday.

It was the Buffaloes’ first win over a top-five team since Dec. 1, 2001, when they bested Texas in the Big 12 title game.

After Eberhart’s kick cleared the crossbar, the fans stormed the field as the dejected Sooners, who had blown a 24-7 second-half lead, walked off, their hopes of a national championship having taken a major hit.

The Sooners (4-1, 0-1 big12) came in averaging a whopping 61.5 points to lead the nation. But behind a tough defense, the Buffs (3-2, 1-0 big12) earned their biggest win under Dan Hawkins, who went 2-10 in his inaugural season last year.

The Buffaloes trailed 24-7 after Allen Patrick scored from 17 yards out following safety D.J. Wolfe’s second interception of Buffs quarterback Cody Hawkins. His first one led to Juaquin Iglesias’ 13-yard TD catch in the first half.

But Oklahoma, which had scored 50-plus points in each of their first four games, was stifled after that, and Colorado outgained the Sooners 219 yards to 46 in the second half.

Colorado began its comeback with Eberhart’s 41-yarder to make it 24-10 in the third quarter.

After Ryan Walters picked off Sam Bradford, Hawkins hit Tyson DeVree for the score on fourth-and-goal from the 4, pulling Colorado to 24-17 on the first play of the fourth quarter.

Bradford, who was the second rated passer in the nation entering the game, finished 8-for-19 for 112 yards with two interceptions and was outplayed by Hawkins, the Colorado coaches’ son.

The redshirt freshman was 22-for-36 for 219 yards and two touchdowns.

The Sooners gave the Buffs a huge assist in their comeback when Reggie Smith muffed a fair catch and Colorado’s Justin Drescher recovered at the OU 16.

Four plays later, Colorado tied it on Hawkins’ 15-yard touchdown strike to Dusty Sprague with 4:05 remaining.

The Buffs forced another punt and Chase McBride’s 33-yard return set up Colorado at midfield. Hawkins drove the Buffs to the 27, where Eberhart made the game-winner to give Colorado its biggest upset in years.

Oklahoma led 17-7 at halftime after managing just one long scoring drive, a three-play, 80-yarder that ended with Patrick’s 34-yard TD run.

The Sooners went three-and-out on their first two possessions but got great field position on their next drive when Wolfe picked off Hawkins and returned it 33 yards to the Buffaloes 11.

The Sooners lost two yards on their first two runs, then Bradford hit Iglesias for a 13-yard touchdown — and Oklahoma’s first first down — with 1:40 left in the first quarter for a 7-0 lead.

The Buffs then tied it at 7 when pulling guard Devin Head opened a hole for tailback Hugh Charles, who scampered in from 25 yards out in the second quarter.

The Buffs announced before the game that star freshman tailback Brian Lockridge would sit out with a concussion, which he suffered at practice on Tuesday. Lockridge had been the Buffs’ primary tailback since they burned the redshirt on him two weeks ago.

NEXT GAME

vs

UT, OU Stumble Into Rumble...
"The Longhorns, who have won two straight in the series, appeared to be underdogs to OU because they had trouble putting away wins over Arkansas State, TCU and Central Florida.
As crazy as it sounds after Brown's worst home loss in 10 seasons as coach, Texas feels it can hang with the Sooners thanks to OU's breakdown in Boulder."

Left Wing Pathological Liars

What do pathological liars do when they get caught in a big lie like the moveon.org scandal where they "cooked the books" and lied while accusing General Petraeus of "cooking the books" and lying?
or the lie that Algore won the 2000 election,
or the lie that Karl Rove had a secret deal with NBC's Walsh to steal the 2000 elelction written by fake journalist "David Podvin" who doesn't actually exist,
or the lie that Bush knew about (or was involved in) the 9/11 attacks,
or the lie that Bush blew up the levees in New Orleans,
or the lie that if re-elected Bush had a secret draft planned for after the 2004 election,
or the lie that Bush stole the 2004 election...
or the series of lies out of Iraq via the AP regarding "civil war" reports sourced to a fake person Jamil Hussein...
or which time were they lying here, when they said Saddam had WMD or when they now claim they never said he had WMD?
or the lie that claimed Bush said Saddam was an imminent threat, (Bush actually said "We must act BEFORE Saddam poses an imminent threat." i.e. preemptive strike)
or the lie that claimed Bush said Saddam was involved with the 9/11 attacks, (no evidence in any public statement by Bush)
...there is literally an endless supply of these, (apparently) but what does the left do when each and every lie starts to smell bad and the truth starts to catch up?
They come up with another big lie, accuse everyone ELSE of lying and promptly "move-on" to the next big fat whopper ASAP.

Examples #4,276,173 & #4,276,174- Immediately following the "General Betray us" debacle yet before the stench is gone, we get this...
Two NEW lies are being spread like cancer by the extreme liberal left bloggers like kittenstomper here in Oklahoma for example... who print the accusation and the lie but don't print what Limbaugh ACTUALLY said... just like the rest of the "repeat the lies" leftwing pathological bloggers around the globe who aren't the least bit interested in facts, but instead only interested in how much damage they can do with the lies.

So what is it this week that is spreading across the liberal blogosphere like wildfire... and getting picked up by the Democrat party advertising department (the main stream media) and repeated as fact?

Lie #1- O'Reilly made racist comments.
Fact1: Fact2 Both Rev. Al Sharpton (D) AND NPR's Juan Williams (D) (neither are Bush loving neocons) were present with O'Reilly at the time the comments were made and BOTH Sharpton AND Williams have said...

O'Reilly's comments were right...if taken in context, and were certainly NOT racist in any way.

Lie #2- Rush Limbaugh calls any troops "phoney" who oppose the war.
Fact: Here is what Limbaugh actually said, judge for yourself...

"Here is a Morning Update that we did recently, talking about fake soldiers. This is a story of who the left props up as heroes. They have their celebrities and one of them was Army Ranger Jesse Macbeth. Now, he was a "corporal." I say in quotes. Twenty-three years old. What made Jesse Macbeth a hero to the anti-war crowd wasn't his Purple Heart; it wasn't his being affiliated with post-traumatic stress disorder from tours in Afghanistan and Iraq. No. What made Jesse Macbeth, Army Ranger, a hero to the left was his courage, in their view, off the battlefield, without regard to consequences. He told the world the abuses he had witnessed in Iraq, American soldiers killing unarmed civilians, hundreds of men, women, even children. In one gruesome account, translated into Arabic and spread widely across the Internet, Army Ranger Jesse Macbeth describes the horrors this way: "We would burn their bodies. We would hang their bodies from the rafters in the mosque."

Now, recently, Jesse Macbeth, poster boy for the anti-war left, had his day in court. And you know what? He was sentenced to five months in jail and three years probation for falsifying a Department of Veterans Affairs claim and his Army discharge record. He was in the Army. Jesse Macbeth was in the Army, folks, briefly. Forty-four days before he washed out of boot camp. Jesse Macbeth isn't an Army Ranger, never was. He isn't a corporal, never was. He never won the Purple Heart, and he was never in combat to witness the horrors he claimed to have seen. You probably haven't even heard about this. And, if you have, you haven't heard much about it. This doesn't fit the narrative and the template in the Drive-By Media and the Democrat Party as to who is a genuine war hero. Don't look for any retractions, by the way. Not from the anti-war left, the anti-military Drive-By Media, or the Arabic websites that spread Jesse Macbeth's lies about our troops, because the truth for the left is fiction that serves their purpose. They have to lie about such atrocities because they can't find any that fit the template of the way they see the US military. In other words, for the American anti-war left, the greatest inconvenience they face is the truth."

No wonder the pathological left got mad, "smearing without regard for truth" is the official plan of operation for the left right now and they don't want that truth getting out either.
Thats what they do when they lose in the battle of ideas. (and make no mistake they are losing otherwise there is no need to smear)
Smear Bush, smear Republicans, smear the military, smear Generals, smear Christians and then claim Bush, Rush and O'Reilly are the liars.

MEANWHILE, the very SAME LEFT (suddenly outraged) who has been calling the troops "murderers", "uneducated and poor", thugs, the real terrorists... and worse, NOW all of a sudden they are mad at somebody for calling one of their phoney so-called "murdering troops... phoney?
Jesse McBeth was another (phoney) example of our troops being murdering thugs (he was never in combat for God's sake) held up by the left and used as a weapon against the military and Bush just like they do with Club Gitmo and elsewhere.

And yet some people wonder why those of us on the right have nothing but contempt for these... pathetic lying losers who are given utmost credibility and respect by the mainstream media.

If you were one that helped spread any of these lies, you are scum. ( and scum is NOT a term of endearment)

We can post direct quotes in context of dozens of America hating liberals in Hollywood and get scorned and criticized for it... the left can make up lies and get away with it... and in fact get those lies printed as real news.

This is what the left is doing to America and if those of you who call yourselves moderate liberals had better start calling these people out and discrediting them... because it reflect directly on you, like it, admit it or not. They are destroying your country too.

The right has played nicey-nice and patty-cake long enough, trying to not give your lies credibility by not responding and thats about to come to an end... trust me.

Who is behind all of this... well, if we follow the money, one place it will lead us is to one George Soros for without his billions funding these liars... their lies might never get out of the sewer they came from. Soros is willing to pay anyone any amount if they are willing to lie, cheat or steal to destroy Bush and Republicans. (Like the so-called NASA whistleblower which turned out to be a global warming fraud/lie paid for by Soros)

The troops know who is on their side and who is telling lies, so the story about Rush will have no impact there, only here where the other war is going on... the war against truth waged by the extreme, "off the rails on a crazy train", moonbat (did I mention extreme?) left. If there is such a thing as a moderate liberal majority that doesn't believe these lies, they need to assist in stopping the madness or they end up being a willing un-active partner in these partisan lies.

Liberal Moonbat For Jihad of the Month

I'm sorry, but I'm declaring this contest over before the end of the month, since nobody can top this one , not even moveon.org (tried mightily though).

I coulda' put up a terrific photo, but didn't want to spoil the surprise. My only hint/comment for you is ... wait'll they find out she's a lesbian...(not that there is anything wrong with that)

Other nominees include (see Jihad of the Day posts in Sept archive) Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, moveon.org, Okie, Funk/Daily Kos/Blue Oklahoma, Hillary Clinton, George Soros, Harry Reid, Howard Dean, Dennis Kucinich, the entire Democrat congress along with a host of "Dishonorable Mentions"....
But none of these Bush hating Jihadi supporters was fanatic enough to get invited to spend an all expenses paid, fun-filled weekend running around in the middle of the night killing innocent people with carbombs, IED's, suicide belts and hang out with cool terrorists like this months winner did!

Better luck next month to all those who supported the Jihad against America ...(from the safety of America)... you know who you are.

I know, I know, all liberals aren't like this and I'm namecalling... but it was just too good to pass up.

Inhofe Launches Official Language Bill

Click here to send a message to your Senators, urging them to vote for the Inhofe bill, S.1335!

Send a message to your Senator directly, with ProEnglish's Legislative Action Center.

Senator James Inhofe (R-Okla.) has introduced a bill that would make English the official language of the United States of America, and would require “The Government of the United States [to] conduct its official business in English, including publications, income tax forms, and informational materials.” It would also send a message to new immigrants that the U.S. intends to preserve its linguistic unity as a nation, and that they must have a responsibility to learn English as the first step toward pursing the American dream, and full participation in American life.

A couple of additional reasons to support the Inhofe official English bill:

• Four out of five likely voters (84%) agree English should be the official language.
• The number of U.S. residents who speak English “not well” or “not at all” grew by 65 percent between the 1990 census and the 2000 census. The overall U.S. population grew by 13 percent during the same period.
• 30 states have passed official English, but federal policies, never approved by Congress, prevent these laws from being meaningfully implemented.

ProEnglish urges you to take a few minutes call and send a free fax message to your Senator using our website. Click here to send a free message. Or, you can be connected to your Senators directly by calling the capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121.

Sen. Inhofe's bill...

...Declares English the official language of the United States,
and commits the government to preserve and enhance the role of English as the official langauge.

...Ends foreign language entitlements.
Executive Order 13166, issued by President Clinton, and re-affirmed by the Bush administration, mandated that any providers of government-assisted goods or services make any special provisions needed to accommodate recipients who speak languages other than English. This was a novel interpretation of the Civil Rights Act's prohibition of discrimination on the grounds of "national origins." S. 1335 affirms that no-one has an entitlement to government services in foreign languages, unless expressly established by law. If services are provided in foreign languages, the English version of any document is the sole authority for all legal purposes.

...Repeals bilingual voting requirements.
Historically, various immigrant groups were denied access to meaningful education. To redress this situation, lawmakers in 1973 amended the Voting Rights Act of 1965 to require certain localities to provide voting assistance in foreign languages (commonly called "bilingual ballots," although such assistance may be in several languages, and may encompass much more than merely ballots). Today, limited English proficiency exists largely due to high levels of immigration, not discrimination. Yet Congress recently extended the foreign-language voting assistance for 25 years. S. 1335 repeals the "bilingual ballot" provisions to the Voting Rights Act.

...Requires English for new citizens.
S. 1335 requires that all naturalization ceremonies (granting citizenship to immigrants) must be conducted in English.

Exceptions and limitations.
S. 1335 does not override state laws, and expressly does not apply to the use of foreign languages for religious, educational, or training purposes, nor does it prevent the government from providing interpreters to senior citizens.

MLK's Niece Speech Cancelled as Controversial

Defenders of Free Speech where art thou now?

This one makes my head want to explode...

All week I've heard people defending Ahmadinejad's right to speak at our schools in the name of freedom of speech and I've heard people defending the poster for the Gay and Lesbian deal depicting the last supper in S&M gear as freedom of speech...
...but where are these people (and others) when the niece of Martin Luther King Jr's speech is canceled by a High School Principal for being "too controversial"? (cricket noise)

Alveda King, who has blood ties to the founder of the civil rights movement, is the Director for the African American Outreach for Gospel Life, a minister, an author, a former professor and a former Georgia legislator was surprised and disappointed at the sudden cancellation by the Roosevelt High School in Des Moines Iowa for what they described as "too controversial".

Now why in the wide world of sports would anyone NOT want this obviously intelligent, educated, high quality person tied to our nations recent history, to speak to students?

What on earth could she possible have done or said that could cause such total rejection of her even appearing on campus and speaking to students as planned for months?

Was it racism or left over racist hatred for her Uncle?
Some big scandal involving drugs, dog fighting, corruption or ...worse?
It's worse than all the above?
What could it be...

She was canceled for being....drum roll,
...pro life.

Let me get this straight... So it's perfectly fine to have someone speak at our schools who believes in killing all the Jews, but NOT okay to have someone (even the niece of MLKjr) speak on behalf of "life" in our schools. BTW- She says her Uncle was pro-life too.

"My uncle said that "the Negro cannot win if he is willing to sacrifice the lives of his children for personal comfort and safety.” Now if you look at the issue of abortion, that's immediately sacrificing the life of a child for personal comfort and safely."

Yet every school talks about MLK as a hero of all Americans without mentioning that if he were alive today they probably wouldn't let him speak at those same schools (if his niece is any example).

High Shools across the country welcome Planned (un)Parenthood in-school programs and guests to speak, so perhaps Roosevelt High should contact them for a less controversial speaker assuming they haven't already spoken there...

"At Planned Parenthood you can also get birth control without the consent or knowledge of your parents. So, if you are 14, 15 or 16 and you come to Planned Parenthood, we won't tell your parents you've been there. We swear we won't tell your parents."
Planned Parenthood employee lecturing students of Ramona High School, Riverside, Calif.

And the left wonders WHERE in the world we get the idea that there is an attack against Christian beliefs.

Get me the duct tape...

Two (correction, Three) back-to-back-to back posts by Engram over at BACK TALK who is a research professor, registered Democrat and self professed liberal are absolutely brilliant (as usual) and I challenge anti-war Bush haters to refute his data.

Engram goes to great detail and research using the actual numbers provided by anti-Bush leftwingers themselves to demonstrate irrefutably and convince even the most skeptical of you that the Petraeus Report is dead-on accurate with his...
"Leftwing Conformation of the Petraeus Report".

"There continues to be a raging debate about the validity of the report given by General Petraeus, which supposedly documented declining civilian casualties in Iraq. Skepticism about the numbers reported by Petraeus is seriously misplaced... and today I think I will be able to convince you of that. In fact, I'm going to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt."

Using their own numbers, Engram does just that.

With data supplied from anti-war leftwing body count groups, Engram confirms the Petraeus Report and disproves claims that the "books were cooked" in favor of the surge and just as importantly in todays post goes on to show exactly how moveon.org and the others may have "cooked the books" themselves with manipulated graphs and misrepresented data.

Why is the surge working and who are we fighting?
Back-Talk also gives us the cold hard facts on AQI directly from the war with "We are fighting Al Qaeda and They Lost" in the words of Lt. Col Mike Silverman in the Anbar province, again proving who we are fighting and how it is really going right now.

Lt. Col. Silverman (when asked):

“What’s the most important thing Americans need to know about Iraq that they don’t currently know?”

(Silverman)
“That we’re fighting Al Qaeda,” he said without hesitation. “[Abu Musab al] Zarqawi invented Al Qaeda in Iraq. The top leadership outside Iraq squawked and thought it was a bad idea. Then he blew up the Samarra mosque, triggered a civil war, and got the whole world’s attention. Then the Al Qaeda leadership outside dumped huge amounts of money and people and arms into Anbar Province. They poured everything they had into this place. The battle against Americans in Anbar became their most important fight in the world. And they lost.”

Engram adds..."That's about as succinct a summary of my last 300 blog posts as you'll ever find! All facts support this analysis, and I have cited the relevant evidence many, many times. Those who don't know this are uninformed, yet many have strong opinions about Iraq anyway. That doesn't make sense to me. If you are going to have a strong opinion about Iraq, you should at least know the basics.".

The data confirms ...

"Al Qaeda was directly responsible for the dramatic rise in civilian casualties in Iraq over the last 18 months or so (i.e., they served as the accelerant), and the suppression of al Qaeda -- if it continues -- will be the reason why casualties come down".

If you read the first part of this post and visited the links then you already know that according to even the most anti-Bush leftwing body counters and funeral chasers... the casualties are trending downward... and now you also know why.

Congratulations and gratitude should also go out to those tribal leaders and Iraqi citizens that have helped make this a big victory for them and a huge loss for Al Qaeda and other Islamic extremists.

Whether you hate Bush and don't understand who we are fighting in Iraq and want the straight scoop OR if you love Bush and want the straight scoop on the current situation in Iraq, BACKTALK is a MUST READ for anyone desiring to have a more informed opinion on the war.

I challenge UCO's Okie Funk's Dr. Kurt Hochenauer or any of these other illustrious anti-war college professors or even one of the Daily Kosers or AirheadAmericans, or moveon.orgers, who believe the moveon.org ad, to review, debate, acknowledge (or even read) Engram's well documented analysis on the subject of Iraq.

If you are able to post on their hate-sites (I am not of course, excepting Rodger A Payne's site where to his credit I have not been banned) then please, by all means deliver my challenge with this note..."put-up or shut-up". (I will deliver the message to Dr. Payne myself, again to his credit)

My guess is these holier than thou college professors and other "experts" consider themselves "above" learning, or challenges to their view, much less risking the "impossibility" that they are just flat WRONG... and so will more than likely respond with either indifference or insults/attacks (on me) (and/or BackTalk)...and few (if any) facts disputing the Petraeus Report or Engram's analysis.

They throw out numbers that are fed to them like "1.2million innocent Iraqi's dead" without ever checking those numbers or even considering whether the numbers are feasible (which it isn't) as was pointed out in an earlier piece. All they have to do is simple math, I'm sure SOMEBODY at these universities has a calculator in their pocket protector.

Wake UP America.
-red stater

BTW- Attention Moonbats: Do NOT even respond with "...if Al Qaeda lost, then the war is over, so bring the troops home". That is not what is said here, the discussion is of the surge, the Petraeus Report and in particular the Anbar region of Iraq. There is still a lot of work to be done, but make no mistake, it is getting done.

Deep Thoughts And Dimwits

Scientific experts at Oxford are calling it "one of the most important developments in the history of science" and if true, might explain how Hollywood liberals and the far left Democrats come to the conclusions they shout from the highest microphone.
Scientists claim to have proven the theory of Parallel Universe and state that there are in fact unlimited (infinite) parallel universes where every event in our day has alternate realities.

Now rather than take the normal approach and question a scientific claim, let's do what the global warming proponents do and believe every word as gospel.

So if this is true, then in fact, somewhere in a parallel universe... George Bush is the terrorist and Bin Laden, Saddam (still alive) and Ahmadinejad (even Hitler) are in fact champions of democracy, freedom, liberty...


Somewhere in a parallel universe, Algore actually did win the 2000 election, actually did invent the internet (along with everything else) and he has ended global warming (formerly called "summer") to the point we now have a "global cooling" (formerly called "winter") emergency causing President alGore to ask all Americans to leave their cars running all night in the driveway to bring temps back up, which he says may take until next spring.


Somewhere in a parallel universe, John Kerry is a Vietnam war hero and not a Vietnam war protester/traitor, didn't marry Teresa Heinz and is now wearing a "Sturgis or Die" faded T-Shirt, riding a Harley to a VFW for a few beers and trade war stories...




(...oops sorry, wrong universe- lol)

Here ya go...


Somewhere... in the unlimited number of alternate realities, Bill Clinton actually "did not have sex with that woman", did not smoke cigars, never inhaled and was not President of the United States, but instead is in an Arkansas prison for rape.

And so on...

The point?
How about if we all actually "lived" in the same universe for about 10 seconds.

You know, like THIS one (lets call it "reality" for the sake of this discussion)...
Bush won in 2000 and again in '04 by a larger margin,
Islamic fascists are the enemy (not Bush) and seek to destroy the west,
America is the best/only hope for freedom (and peace) in the world,
Corrupt politicians are corrupt... not "Republicans" or "Democrats"...

Or, if that's too difficult to get your mind around how about THIS reality check...

If Americans don't come together in the same "alternate universe" and defeat the Jihadists, then Americans will certainly live in the very real "universe" dictated by those Jihadists.



Unless of course, the anti-war Democrats and Populist Liberals have figured out a way to "jump" to alternative realities/universes... which, judging by their words and actions (and the existence of alternative universes) , I guess could also be true.

The New Populist Left

As I posted below, using the generic term "liberal" for Okie Funk/Dr. Kurt is technically incorrect, according to the purpose statement in the upper right margin of his blog "Providing Populist and Liberal information and ideas...".

While there is virtually no information about Populism or liberalism on his blog, it's very easy to figure out what Okie Funk is AGAINST ...the war, the Imperialist Bush Presidency, the neoconservative whatever, the Miltary-Industrial Complex and the threat of the Christian right are his major targets... (aside from rightwing Democrats lately...lol) but never do you get a glimpse of what Okie Funk is in FAVOR of. In the "ideas" department he is severely lacking for a college professor.
He supports and obviously votes Democrat (providing he votes) but Democrats are not far enough to the left to suit this liberal populist.
Populist Liberal...Liberal Leftist ...Leftist Populist... hmmm let's see if we can find examples in the wide world of sports where Leftist liberals and Populist parties combined.

Leftists and Populists Combine, Pose Threat To Democracy

April 6 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- "The results of the latest and most comprehensive study of public opinion in the Americas concludes that Latin America is drifting toward the political left and experiencing a rise in populism.

The power shift away from government institutions and toward charismatic leaders who claim to know "the will of the people" could weaken democracy in the region, according to the study."

But how can the Left and Populists agree you ask?

"While leftists certainly have held power in the past, never before in Latin America have so many countries been governed by presidents of the left, even though the variation of leftist ideology is great, running from Presidents Lula in Brazil and Bachellet in Chile, both of whom support free trade and close ties with the U.S., to Chavez in Venezuela, who openly espouses socialist, anti-capitalist, anti-U.S. doctrines," Seligson said.

At the same time, populist governments are on the rise. What unifies these governments is "not their left-right orientation. Rather it is a core belief that the institutions of classical liberal democracy, especially the legislature and the courts, are anachronistic, inefficient and inconsistent with their own interpretation of the 'will of the people.'"

The result, Seligson said, is "populist leaders propose instead to listen to 'the people' and to personally carry out their will, while isolating the 'rejectionists,' usually running roughshod over fundamental democratic guarantees of civil liberties, especially free expression and the right to due process".... (and are) "...willing to follow the sharply leftist and strongly populist lead of Hugo Chavez.

Another article about the new Left and Populists describes the term Populist like this

Latin American Leaders Reinvent the Left

"The term (Populist) has come to mean short-term pandering to the masses at the expense of the long-term good for all. Similar policies left many Latin American nations deeply in debt and doomed to boom-and-bust economic cycles."

And finally we cut through all of the mumbo-jumbo to the bottom line definition in terms of the New Populists and Latin America from the Venezuelan News and Analysis website...

"Any moderately intelligent person knows that there is actually no significant difference between populism, marxism or socialism."

So are we to believe that Okie Funk is demanding to rebuild the Democrat party in the image of Hugo and Fidel?

We can only speculate, but two things are for sure... Okie Funk/Dochoc/Dr Kurt isn't demanding to rebuild the Democrat party in the image of the current Democrat party nor in the image of the Republican party or anything else we would recognize as pro American... that is certain.

It's time Oklahoman's new the truth about Dr. Kurt Hochenauer and the Leftist Populist movement.

I was able to find this nugget tucked away in the diaries over at Blue Oklahoma where DocHoc (Dr Kurt) posts on a regular basis along with regular posts at the Daily Kos.

"What we need now is a new populist movement in Oklahoma, a movement that will sweep out the new dregs of disguised fascism and restore democracy and opportunity to our state."

Glad I could be the one to clear this up, but it was a lot easier when I could just call him a moonbat.

Here is a link to the Midwest Populist Party of America... isn't it odd though that Okie Funk doesn't have any links to any populist info sites considering this is one of the main purposes of his blog?

Let The Unraveling Begin

When liberals attack liberals and call for their heads (or jobs) you know there is a problem.

As other liberals and Democrats have said, "You. just. don't. do. it". Liberals should never ever attack other liberals... no matter what, according to the company line that is.

In power for nearly a year, Democrats find themselves in a real pickle however as they have failed to deliver on campaign promises. (according to the left)
Their highly touted fix of all of America's problems in their "First 100 Hours" turned into 100 hours of nothing followed by 100 days of nothing followed by another 200 days of nothing (except giving minimum wage earners a .75cent raise.) unless you call endless investigations that lead nowhere something.

Upset, discouraged and sounding defeated, OKIE FUNK turns his moonbat hate machine on Democrats who aren't toeing the extremist liberal line like good little socialists. But Dochoc (Okie Funk) is not alone in his war on Democrats. Several leftwing bloggers are calling for a large number of select Democrats to be "primaried" (defeated in primaries) as they call it.

This ever widening crack in the base of the Democrat party is possibly just the beginning of a giant separation and ultimate grand canyon to come. Extremist radical liberals like those at moveon.org, the Daily Kos and here in Oklahoma at Okie Funk who believe they are responsible for Democrats being in power in the first place are threatening... (no) DEMANDING total destruction of the Democrat party and a total remake in true socialist fashion. Won't THAT be fun?

Moderates like Joe Liberman and local blogger Oklahoma Lefty along with other mature, rational thinking Democrats have been warning of the dangers associated with the extreme far radical left....and trying to provide a more palatable reasonable platform. The arrogance and impatience of those radicals may cause the split that moderate liberals need in order to make a clean break from the wacko extremists who are bent on destruction and reconstruction of the Democrat party.

For those of us on the right, it comes as no surprise considering the lies, rhetoric and hatred for America that moveon.org, Daily Kos, Okie Funk and their ilk have spewed for the past 7+ years, but to most Democrats it will come as a complete shock and awe when that venom is spewed at them.

Target: Former San Francisco Mayor, US Senator Dianne Feinstein (D) CA- Described by Okie Funk as extreme rightwing and a patsy for the Bush Imperial Presidency along with a long list of Democrats OkieFunk has targeted for "un-election" are now in the crosshairs. Okie Funk is calling to break up the Democrat party at the same time he urges all Democrats to come together in order to prevent what he frighteningly describes as "a new totalitarian America" which he claims without any evidence whatsoever is certain to come if Republicans win in '08. (Like the draft predicted in 04?)

But don't take my word for it... Okie Funk unplugged, unraveled, unglued and unhinged HERE.
Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy... and laughing out loud at the same time.

UPDATE Okie Funk:
Since I began this post by referring to Okie Funk as "a liberal", I must now apologize to all "true liberals" (David Horowitz definition) and "moderate liberals" (Joe Liberman, Oklahoma Lefty) out there for not having researched and made the distinction previously, which from here on out, I assure you will be done regarding Okie Funk.
So, when reading previous posts where I referred to OkieFunk/Dochoc/DrKurt as a "liberal" please insert the phrase "Populist Liberal" (from the webpage mission of Okie Funk) whatever that means.
More to follow in an upcoming post titled: "True Liberals, Moderate Liberals, Leftists, Socialists, New Populists, Populist Liberals" Communists, Totalitarians Fascists and the rest of the Democratic Party" or "The New Liberal Populist/Old Democratic Party of America".

A lesson In Censorship From The Left

Ready again Class?
Okay boys and girls, today we are going to discuss "free speech".

Oklahoma Lefty, about whom I have expressed great respect for his courage and position on the war, has spent considerable time here in my comments sections trying to convince me to censor my words, thoughts, opinions and views of the left. (See Pinheads For Peace) He condemned me for using words that he deems inappropriate like "moonbat" for instance and has worked tirelessly to make the point that unless I use words and methods that he (dave) approves, then all my points are moot and not to be taken seriously.

Amazingly at the same time, he posts a story accusing bloggers like me of censorship because I require approval before comments are published here primarily due to spam ads. A glance at the comments section in "A Tale of Two Paynes" and numerous other posts shows clearly that I do publish comments that are critical and hateful of myself, conservatives and Bush in particular and in no way censor mere opinions.
Lefty goes to great lengths to condemn censorship when it fits his needs (defending other lefty's) while at the same time trying to *supervise my manners and thereby censor what I write and post here at Red S Tater !

Olahoma Lefty points to definition #2 HERE which says... "Any person who *supervises the manners or morality of others" as his example of MY censorship (by approving comments before publishing) which in fact is exactly what HE is doing by attempting to "supervise my manners" regarding comments I make about liberals and Democrats on my own blog.

And just where does Dave attempt to *supervise my manners and thereby censor free speech?
In the very same comments section that he accuses of censorship of "free speech"... of course. LOL
It's subtle, it's nuanced (of course) but none the less, Dave reprimands me for not blogging to his standards (repeatedly) and discredits me, ...then praises me in a couple of posts (and gives me credit) where I made an extreme effort to meet dave's standards, (even though in one of them I do describe liberals as communists, musta slipped by) then has the nerve to accuse ME of censorship!
Classic hypocritical rhetoric from the left.
Supporting free speech as long as THEY get to decide what speech is free.

Nice job dave, you illustrated perfectly how censorship works for the left. Calling Bush every name in the book is free speech, but asking a Democrat even a tough question...
("...don't tase me bro') much less calling them "moonbats" and "America haters", is considered a Zappable offense... especially in the liberal blog-o-sphere.

I have not advocated censoring the left, in fact I post and re-post their comments to help them get their message out. I figure the more people who know what these moonbats are saying, the better off we all are.

Meanwhile, we have a college professor teaching his personal Bush-hating moonbat politics in the classroom at the University of Central Oklahoma (a clear and rather obvious violation of inappropriate usage of free speech) and what do we hear from Oklahoma Lefty? (Cricket noise)

Perfect, ...thanks Dave.

And this, boys and girls on the same day that liberally biased Columbia University is welcoming Jew hater/Bush hater/America hater Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to their campus to speak after liberal students at Columbia attacked the founder of the border patrol group "The Minutemen" on stage less than one year ago disrupting his speech.
Classic.

UPDATE: 9/25/2007- Now I learn that Oklahoma Lefty (dave) has been sneaking around copying comments from the Red S Tater comments sections and posting them on a blog where he knows I am not registered, do not frequent and do not post... since Jan 2007 thus not giving me the opportunity to respond or comment. More classic stuff.

Class dismissed, no running in the halls ...and have a nice day.

John Force, Kenny Bernstein In Horrific Crash

NHRA 14 time world champion John Force has been airlifted to a Dallas area hospital following a horrific crash at over 315MPH with drag racing legend Kenny Bernstein who returned to the seat of a nitro funnycar after retiring a few years back. Force was diagnosed with two broken legs, an arm or hand injury and possible concussion but was talking with crew, family and anyone else within range.

His main concern?
Is Bernstein okay?

Kenny Bernstein was uninjured in the accident which happened just past the finish line when his 2007 Dodge Charger funnycar made a move toward the center line hitting one of the timing cones in the center of the track. It appeared that debris from the cone may have caused one of Force's tires to go down and come apart. The resulting impact cut Force's car in half with the drivers cockpit, rearend, rear wheels and parachutes stopping along the retaining wall while the front half of Force's car including the engine, impacted Bernstein's car and continued down the track and into the sand trap.

Daughter Ashley Force (voted AOL's "Hottest Athlete in Sports") following first and second round wins withdrew from the semifinals to be with her father at the hospital.

Televised coverage of the complete NHRA O'Reilly Fall Nationals from the Texas Motorplex will air this evening at 6pm central on ESPN2 and ESPN2HD.

Don't Get "Robbed" Oklahoma

Red flags went up when calls to "Reform Oklahoma's Ballots" appeared on local radical extreme leftwing blogs like Okie Funk and Blue Oklahoma.
Reminders of other states where similar measures and tactics were employed immediately came to mind like Ohio's "Reform Ohio Now" or RON (as it was called back in 2005) following Vietnam protester John Kerry's (D) loss to President George Bush (R).

It's funny (not ha-ha funny, the other kind) that for 100 years during Democrat control of the Oklahoma congress there were no calls for Reforming Oklahoma's Ballot process, but since Republicans have started winning elections (and control).... suddenly Democrats apparently have no other choice but to ROB.

Oklahoma Democrats are scrambling to try and find a way to stop the Republican takeover of the state House and Senate, but conventional means (convincing voters) is not working.
So, if your football team can't score points, it's time to "reform" the scoreboard is the thinking and Reforming Oklahoma's Ballot (ROB) is the plan of attack. Unable to score points with voters, Democrats are maneuvering to revamp the scoring system and assure success by "ROB", by hook or by crook.

One clue to their intentions is the fact that few if any details are provided for just HOW they would ROB and reform the voting process (if given the chance).

Do you really want illegal aliens voting in Oklahoma's elections?
Do you really want dead people "voting" in our elections?
How about convicted criminals?
Do you really want people voting multiple times from multiple locations in Oklahoma?
These are ALL things that Democrats and groups like ACORN have been caught doing and promoting during the past 2 elections, and now it appears Democrats plan to ROB and do the same things here in the Sooner state.

So when you hear the Democrats and liberals proclaiming that they plan to ROB and reform the voting process in Oklahoma, ...take them at their word.
They already believe the 2000 and 2004 elections were stolen from them, so robbing voters is justified in their view.

Oklahoma, don't get "Robbed" and don't be fooled.
Say NO to the ROBbers.
Say NO to Democrats.
Keep Oklahoma's election process credible, it worked fine for Democrats for the first 100 years.

UPDATE: 9/29/07- A supporter of OBAR (Oklahoma Ballat Access Reform) or ROB as I have referred to it above took issue (in my comments and at his blog) with my unwillingness to simply support "Ballot Reform" without FIRST knowing in FULL exactly what they plan to reform and how they plan to reform it. (Silly me).
He goes to great pain to discredit my wondering if this might somehow help Democrats...(more below)
OBAR tout's (more choices) adding any and all candidates from any and all political parties to the ballot as the reason to supporting Reforming Oklahoma's Ballots. Who doesn't like MORE choices? More is always better, right?
In other states where this is done there is a thing called "fusion"... and guess what, here is a story about HOW THIS TYPE BALLOT REFORM HELPS DEMOCRATS.

America: Not Feeling The Love

A comment by 2007 Oklahoma Political blogger of the Year nominee OklahomaLefty regarding my calling Okie Funk an "America Hater" (see Pinheads for Peace) got me to doing a little looking around at the left in general and their outright HATRED for this country. (More on this below)

Now, doing a list of things Okie Funk hates about America is far too easy, could fill several posts and two minutes at his blog will confirm this for anyone with the stomach.
I think that even Dochoc (Okie Funk) himself would have to agree with me that he absolutely, positively hates George Bush's (and the neocon/Christian right's) America... and in reality, at least for now, George Bush's America is America... in terms of control of policy and in the eyes of the world, like it or not, at least for now) It is safe to say that Okie Funk hates America as it exists currently.

So I thought in this case it might be more fun to point out that Dochoc not only hates America but also hates Oklahoma to the point of urging everyone to be ready to leave the state
ASAP (back in 2006 prior to the election) !

The Oklahoma Theocracy

Submitted by dochoc on Mon, 2006-08-28 16:17.

"The march to a "Theocratic Oklahoma" really sums up what is happening in the state these days". ..."Liberals and conservatives who believe in the separation of church and state need to have escape plans to get out of here. I mean that seriously."

LMAO, and need I remind you, THIS is from a college professor at UCO! Not exactly a ringing endorsement for moving TO Oklahoma, creating new jobs or increasing the economy is it? But for some reason I notice he is still hanging around though.... and still hating (Bush's) America. It probably has something to do with that big fat government paycheck he gets paid with taxes collected from actual working people he claims are creating a Theocratic Oklahoma.

Enough with Dr. Hochenauer... I suspect that if the University learned that he is teaching Liberal Indocrination 101, he might be looking for a new gig.... and a new state if what he says is true.

Here is a short list of statements that (I'm sure Okie Funk would agree with the majority of) are delivered by the official spokesperson(s) of the liberal left and the Democrat party... HOLLYWOOD.

"Americans can't admit that you need courage to do such a thing. For that might be misunderstood. The key thing is that we in America are convinced that it was blind, mad fanatics who didn't know what they were doing. But what if those perpetrators were right and we were not? We have long ago lost the capability to take a calm look at the enormity of our enemy's position." -- Norman Mailer on 9/11

"I just feel that there are always pacifist solutions and I feel that us people have the responsibility and also the obligation to demand to our leaders to give us the pacifist solutions. To give us a world in peace." -- Shakira
