Obama, Do Your Damn Job

Monday, June 28th, 2010

Hey, you think that “Declaration 2.0″ thingie a post or two down is a joke?

Here’s a bill of particulars with references to the Constitution.

Mexican gangs with lookout posts IN ARIZONA??? Mexican snipers?? What in Hell is the matter with you? Are you so intent on “fundamentally transforming” this country that you will allow this? An ARMED incursion across our southern border and death threats to law enforcement and YOU ALLOW THIS???

If so, then you are a traitor in the purest sense of the word and should be treated as such. You are in direct violation of the Constitution by denying the citizens of Arizona the right to “be secure in their persons, houses, papers and effects” as outlined in the Fourth Amendment, in addition to your failure to respect Article IV Sec.4 of the Constitution regarding the “guarantee to EVERY (individual) state a republican form of government and shall protect each of them (including Arizona) against INVASION”.

AND your failure “To provide for the calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and REPEL INVASIONS” (Article 1 Sec. 8 of the Constitution)

You are also in violation of Article III Sec. 3 of the Constitution in that, by allowing these outposts to exist you are indirectly giving “Aid and Comfort” to an invading force, the enemy. You have, at the very least, allowed a potential state of war to exist on our own sovereign soil and have done nothing to defend or support those in the line of fire. Abandonment and persecution of the people you were sworn to protect makes “Traitor” seems appropriate.

I must add, you are not only a traitor but a seditionist as well. That you are IN FACT, guilty of “overt conduct, such as speech and organization, that is deemed by the legal authority as tending toward insurrection against the established order” We The People being the legal authority and states rights being the “established order”.

“Subversion of a constitution” and “incitement of discontent (or resistance) to lawful authority” which you have done by demonizing the people of and filing suit against, the state of Arizona. You have, in fact, created a “commotion, though not aimed at direct and open violence against the laws” (of the state of Arizona) all of which are part of the very definition of sedition. You have, in essence, declared war on one of our own states by these actions and you WILL be held accountable.

Read it all, every word.

And you leg-tingling “Journo-lists” who acted as this thug’s mouthpiece during and after the election?

Right up against the wall with him. You’re not the independent, free press protected by the Constitution; you’re his shills, and if he starts bailing out your worthless puppy trainers, you’ll be his paid shills, his co-conspirators.

Anybody out there willing to admit they voted for him? Still proud of it? Here’s your rough-hewn rail, have a nice ride out of town.

Feeling a bit duped?

Too. Fucking. Bad. You deserve everything that’s about to come down around your poor little ignorant innocent socialist peacenik ears. We’ll do our best to keep it from killing you, but remember: we don’t feel sorry for you, we blame you. We’ll let you in if you promise to work, but expect a lot of rough words and angry glares while you dig the latrines.

Via Sondra K. Again.

When The Dam Breaks

Saturday, June 26th, 2010

Watch this to understand what’s at stake with uncontrolled immigration into the United States. Easily debunks the idea that we need to accept immigrants as a “safety valve” for the third world.

Fair Deal

Tuesday, May 11th, 2010

The Gunslinger has a proposal for fixing the immigration problem:

“Sure, we totally agree that your poor little illegal aliens can have all the rights and privileges of citizenship in America—AS LONG AS—you reciprocate, and give any American who wishes to enter Mexico, the exact same rights and privileges: Automatic citizenship and all it implies, including the right to own businesses, own Mexican real estate, and the RIGHT TO VOTE in Mexican elections.”

(Millions of American retirees on fixed incomes would happily retire to warm tropical Mexico…especially with the typical exchange rate.)

Liberty is Hard

Tuesday, May 4th, 2010

“Plastic wrapper” raises an important point in response to my post below about “Jews in the Attic”.

On the other hand, while you’re doing your best to protect your Jews in the Attic, what if your neighbour is hiding a Bomb in his Burkha, and detonates himself killing you and the Jews in your Attic?

Liberty is hard.

Liberty is messy.

Liberty is not safe.

It’s just that tyranny is so very much worse, on such a very much larger scale.

When I say I’m prepared to die for liberty, it doesn’t just mean with a gun in my hands on the barricades.

It means I’m willing to get hit by a drunk driver who wasn’t caught by a road block. (But if they catch him, I want him charged with manslaughter, at least.)

It means I’m willing to see my niece raped by a thug whose lawyer had his last case dismissed “on a technicality”. (But if he’s convicted, I want him convicted of rape, not “assault”, and locked away for a long time, and I want my niece to be able to arm and defend herself in the first place.)

And it means I’m willing to let myself be blown up by my neighbor — but I want his motives honestly appraised, I want his associates honestly investigated, and if he was backed by a foreign organization, I want them hunted down and destroyed.

I also want my borders defended, and if a person commits a crime, and a check shows he’s here illegally, I want his punishment to be quote enhanced unquote accordingly, and if he survives his punishment, I want him deported — possibly by being driven across the border in leg irons and pushed out the door at speed, or by being flown over his home capital, and dropped out the bomb bay with a JDAM package strapped to him and targeted for his ruler’s hot tub.

What I do not want is citizens and legal immigrants harassed, arrested, and punished for violating rules meant to prevent them from having the tools and opportunity to commit crimes. In short, I want the law to be reactive, not proactive.

And thanks, PW, for raising the question, which is at the very heart of the debate.

Jews in the Attic

Sunday, May 2nd, 2010

Joe Huffman provides a clarifying filter:

To the best of my knowledge I am the originator of this test and the name I use to describe it.
…
People tend to understand the importance of freedom of speech and the freedom of the press pretty well and some of the other rights guaranteed by the Bill of Rights. But the Second Amendment was and is viewed as unimportant and perhaps even counterproductive by many in today’s society. I explained to the others in my little band of activists that I looked at all laws that restricted freedom with a view to the impact it would have in a worst case scenario of our government run amok. Will this law make it difficult or impossible to protect innocent life from a government intent on their imprisonment or death? Although I pretty much made everything up on the spot I told them I called this test my “Jews In The Attic Test”. Furthermore I told them that if it fails this test no further discussion is really needed, the law must be opposed in the most vigorous manner possible.
Some laws that fail the test and why:

  • Government mandated ID cards and the authority to demand them at any time. The oppressed class will be unable to masquerade as a member of the neutral or oppressor classes.
  • Searches without probable cause. Imagine you are attempting to smuggle your “Jews in the attic” to a safer hiding place. If the police at the roadblock can search all vehicles then you and your precious cargo are headed to the “work camps”.
  • Government monopoly on medical care. This is a bit surprising — isn’t it? If it is illegal for you to pay someone for anonymous health care then how can your “Jews in the attic” receive health care?
  • Firearm or firearm owner registration. The registration information can be used to confiscate the firearms used to protect innocent life — as it was under the 1938 Weapons Control Act in Nazi Germany.
  • Elimination or severe restriction of anonymous financial transactions. The purchase of food and other supplies for your “Jews in the attic” would show up in the records as being excessive compared to what your needs were. Just as power consumption records are used today to catch home marijuana growers.

I’ll note that the recent Arizona illegal immigrant law likely fails this test; I’m not terribly happy about that because I think we’ve got to control our borders.

QotD: “The System Worked”

Sunday, December 27th, 2009

Look, this is all over the place. It’s so obviously, blatantly wrong, nobody’s saying anything insightful about it. All you can really do is bug out your eyes and scream incoherently, or just sigh and click on to the next post, or go watch a movie or something.

Ladies and gentlemen, the finest hands your country is in [0:30]

“Baghdad” Janet “Nappies” Napolitano, Head Nanny:

One thing I’d like to point out here is that the system worked. Everybody played an important role here. The passengers and crew of the flight took appropriate action.

Even CNN’s commentator can’t quite keep the disbelief out of her voice. CNN is not playing with The Team on this one.

Some of the passengers did indeed do the right thing, although Nappies and her minions have done everything possible to render the passengers helpless.

Then there’s this:

We have no suggestion that he was improperly screened.

He got on the plane despite being on watch lists and despite warnings from his own family. How is that not “improper screened”?

Cold Fury:

This is never going to work if both the terrorist’s and the Administration’s pants are on fire.

Jonah Goldberg says the obvious about as well as anybody:

It is her basic position that the “system worked” because the bureaucrats responded properly after the attack. That the attack was “foiled” by a bad detonator and some civilian passengers is proof, she claims, that her agency is doing everything right. That is just about the dumbest thing she could say, on the merits and politically.
…
If the White House wants to assure people that it takes the war on terror seriously (a term Robert Gibbs used this morning by the way), they could start by firing this patenly unqualified hack.

Although Goldberg is generous (“patently unqualified hack”), you should read the whole thing; it’s short.

Oh, and I can’t pass over this [0:39]:

Within literally an hour to ninety minutes of the incident occurring, all 128 flights in the air had been notified to take some special measures in light of what had occurred.

When seconds count, TSA is an hour away, at least. With advice, not actual, you know, help.

Goldberg is far too generous. Napolitano, and the administration she is a part of, is not unqualified.

They’re on the other side.

Witch Hunt

Sunday, November 8th, 2009

This, from comments:

You are calling for a witch hunt.

Yes, yes I am. Darn betcha.

However, what I am calling for is a witchhunt by what I am assured is the vast majority (at least here in America) of moderate Muslims against (what I am again assured is) the tiny minority of jihadist radicals sheltering among them. A few public condemnations of acts like the Ft. Hood murders are not enough. Muslims themselves must destroy this cancer growing in their breast. If they do not, the rest of us will, out of sheer self-defense, and the mastectomy will be radical.

As for “all first hand accounts” — Actually, no, there are many reports of the murderer’s longstanding, and increasing, Islamic fundamentalism over the past several years, including reports of him delivering Jihadist lectures during grand rounds; of him wearing the traditional white robe of a shaheed, a martyr to be; of him handing out copies of the Koran, and even giving away his furniture in the days before the attack. There are several links between mosques he attended and Wahabist clerics in Saudi Arabia. (Once again, yes, I’ve done my damn homework; you do yours. These reports are not at all hard to find.)

I’m sure he was stressed over being sent to the Middle East — but that stress arose from his conflict between his military oath and mission, and his religious fundamentalism.

He chose to betray his oath, his country, and his fellow soldiers. He chose sides, and became the enemy.

That must be stopped, and there only two ways: People like him, and the clerics who encourage them, can be rooted out by other Muslims, or the rest of us can do it for them.

Choose sides. Soon.

===

Related:

Carol Gould’s scolding of Michael Moore for his claim that there really isn’t a significant terrorist threat; it’s chock full of links to the contrary.

===

[update]
Another quick, but highly relevant link:

I believe it was Derb a few months after 9/11 who said that for this new struggle our watchword was “Better screwed than rude.” Major Hasan represents the institutionalization of that attitude. Thirteen people are dead, dozens more will live with their injuries for the rest of their days, and a lot of families have had a great big gaping hole blown out of their lives because of it.

Anwar al-Awlaki and his chums have bet that such a society is too sick to survive. Watch the nothing-to-see-here media driveling on about pre-post-traumatic stress disorder like gibbering lunatics in a padded cell, and then think whether you’d really want to take that bet.

Read the whole thing. Absolutely.

Island Off the Coast of France: Deporting Gurkhas

Saturday, April 25th, 2009

No, there won’t always be an England, just an island off the coast of France.

Here’s more evidence that England has already ceased to exist:

The Brits discovered them when they fought them during the Nepalese War of 1814-16 and somehow managed to call them Gurkhas. They kick all kinds of butt.

Four original battalions of Gurkhas were formed into the East India Company, and they stayed loyal to the Crown through the Indian Mutiny…and every armed conflict Britain’s been part of ever since. Two hundred thousand of them joined up for Dubya-Dubya Eye-Eye and distinguished the hell out of themselves.

And now thousands of them are set to be deported from Britain. Gurkha veterans have been fighting for the right to live in Britain for a long time — and I don’t pretend to know the whole backstory — but the latest immigration rules released today are fucking evil: a soldier can stay if he’s served 20 years. The rank and file are only allowed to serve 15. Nice.

Meanwhile, St. George’s flag, the traditional flag of England, keeps getting banned because, having also been the flag of the Crusades, it might offend immigrants who want to destroy the traditional English way of life.

(In fairness, I should point out that the people of England are very fond of their flag. It’s only the government and Church of England officials who keep trying to ban it. Unfortunately, the people of England are too well behaved to hang the cowardly bastards.)

(Oh, and to stave off the nit-pickers: The Union Jack is the flag of Great Britain. Not the same as England.)

“…I’m Off to the Range.”

Sunday, November 30th, 2008

Gun fearing socialist pussies everywhere, relax: my favorite African-American, Kim du Toit, is closing The Other Side of Kim, having gotten tired of shouting the ugly truth into the faces of people who have an ideological commitment to not hearing it.

When he started, he was one of the few strong advocates for the crazy idea that ordinary American citizens, men and women regardless of creed or color, were competent to run their own affairs, even in matters of life and death. He started the idea of National Buy a Gun Day, as a part of his Nation of Riflemen campaign, aimed at re-arming the militia of which the Second Amendment speaks, the unorganized one.

He has also been a tireless critic of communism, socialism, nannyism,and big government generally.

He was one of my very first daily-read bookmarks when I myself realized that the Second Amendment imposed much the same duty as the first: to actively participate in the nation’s political process in ways far beyond mere voting. (What, you thought the First Amendment was all about Freedom From Religion, and your right to buy, sell, and make child pornography?)

He put his money where his mouth is, nearly suffering financial ruin when his employer discovered he, uh, Spoke Real Truth to Real Power, and fired him. So great was his distress that he actually sold off some of his substantial collection of firearms to make ends meet. (And you may judge the size and value of that arsenal by the fact that selling off only a part of it actually made a difference in the finances of a family, including teenagers, who had recently purchased a new home in Dallas.)

He has also taken dozens of people, men, women, and children, Off to the Range, and taught them how to shoot. Fittingly, one of his last posts today was about one such excursion.

All Americans can be proud that when he escaped from the hell hole of South Africa he chose to come here; all Texans can be proud that when he abandoned Mayor Daley’s fiefdom to its own rot, he came here. He came not for a free handout, but to do his part in holding the line in the world’s Last, Best Hope for Liberty.

He, a foreigner, has been a better American than I, a native; indeed, a far better American than almost all of us, including especially many of those who now hold elective office. He took an oath to become one of us, he meant it, and he’s done his level best to keep it.

Thank you, sir. Thank you very much. Please enjoy having a private life again; you have already done more than your share.

Absolut Reconquista

Thursday, April 3rd, 2008

From just about everywhere:

Absolut vodka ad shows half the US taken over by Mexico
[Update] I should note, this campaign was specifically targeted at Mexico, not the U.S.

I’ll also note that many commenters have said, wow, don’t Mexicans drink tequila? Exactly the (commercial) point of the campaign: trying to increase market share in a region where there is only a small one now. Can’t fault them for that.

Q&O has a couple of even more provocative, conversation-inducing ads from the Absolut World this map seems to have escaped from. (NOTE: these are parodies. The Aztlan map is real.)

Me, I’m wondering what the response would have been if the Mexican campaign had been balanced by an American campaign with a map showing most of Mexico, say down to the narrow waist just above Guatamala, being taken over by America, although that would have taken actual cojones, instead of Neuticles .

I mean, heck, that would pretty much take care of the immigration problem, it would be a lot easier to defend the border, and maybe–just maybe–conditions in the area would rise to American standards rather than California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, etc, falling to Mexican standards. I’m sure Mexicans would be better off under the American Bill of Rights than whatever passes for the Mexican constitution, even given the many encroachments our government has made on it. (Again, even if you don’t agree with that, the question is, can you imagine Absolut remotely thinking they could get with such a campaign? )[/update]

[updated update]Absolut’s mealy-mouthed non-apology here.I’ve posted a comment there similar to the above rant.[/updated update]

Below the fold is a bunch of stuff I’ll never drink again, from a list posted by Ted Twombly on Absolut’s customer comment site:
