LEVI JOHNSON GETS ANOTHER GIRL PREGNANT - what are your comments?

(above): Levi Johnson, Tripp and Bristol Palin

Levi Johnston has impregnated another girlfriend, TMZ reports. Levi is
the father of Bristol Palin's son, Tripp, who was born in 2008. Since
his son's birth, Levi has broken up with Bristol, posed for Playgirl
and spread nasty rumors about the Palin family. His pregnant
girlfriend is Sunny Oglesby, 20, a teacher from Wasilla, Alaska,
according to TMZ. The couple has reportedly been together for over a
year and she is less than three months along. See a photo of them
kissing here. Just after Levi and Sunny made their relationship
Facebook official in December 2010, OK! magazine published her "about

Steyn: Swingin’ Kennedy: The liberties Of More Than 300 Milion People Hinge On Just One Man

A quick, yet thoughtful read,  especially for some of our more constitutionally challenged members, (See TommyTomTomForNews)

 

Swingin' Kennedy:  The liberties of more than 300 million people hinge on just one man.

By Mark Steyn

March 31, 2012

 

http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/294947/swingin-kennedy-mark-steyn?pg=1

 

Since the retirement of Sandra Day O'Connor, Swingin' Anthony Kennedy has been the swingingest swinger on the Supreme Court, the big Numero Cinco on all those 5–4 white-knuckle nail-biting final scores. So naturally Court observers have been paying close attention to his interventions in the Obamacare oral arguments. So far he doesn't sound terribly persuaded by the administration's line:

"The government is saying that the federal government has a duty to tell the individual citizen that it must act, and that is different from what we have in previous cases, and that changes the relationship of the federal government to the individual in a very fundamental way." As John Hinderaker wrote at the Powerline blog, "In that last observation, Kennedy seems to be channeling Mark Steyn." Which is true. As I wrote in National Review only two or three issues back, "I've argued for years in these pages that governmentalized health care fundamentally transforms the relationship between citizen and state in ways that" — and here's the bit Justice Kennedy isn't quite on board with yet — "make it all but impossible to have genuinely conservative government ever again." So I'm naturally heartened to hear him meeting me halfway. This was one of the highlights of a week that a shell-shocked Jeffrey Toobin, crawling out from under the rubble of the solicitor general's presentation, told CNN viewers was "a train wreck" for the government's case.

And yet, and yet . . . If you incline to the view that Obamacare is a transformative act, isn't there something slightly pitiful about the fact that the liberties of over 300 million people hinge on the somewhat whimsical leanings of just one man? I mean, Kennedy seems a cheery enough cove, but who died and made him the all-powerful Sultan of Swing? "It is a decision of the Supreme Court," explained Nancy Pelosi a few years back in more congenial times for the Democrats. "So this is almost as if God has spoken."

That's not how earlier Americans saw it: "If the policy of the government upon vital questions affecting the whole people is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court," wrote Abraham Lincoln, "the people will have ceased to be their own rulers."

Which they have. Or it would not have come to this.

In February, George Jonas wrote up north that Canadians enjoyed more rights and freedoms in the days before all their rights and freedoms got written down in a big ol' "Charter of Rights and Freedoms" (1982). At this point, many readers will object that the constitutional documents of some effete pansy ninny monarchy like Canada are entirely irrelevant to a strapping butch manly self-reliant republic like America. Three words: Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Finding herself with a bit of time on her hands, Justice Ginsburg swung by Cairo last month to help out the lads from the Muslim Brotherhood building the new Egypt: "I would not look to the United States Constitution if I were drafting a constitution in the year 2012," she advised them. Instead, she recommended the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and the European Convention on Human Rights. That's why the fate of the republic will come down to a 5–4 vote. Because four-ninths of the constitutional court think the American constitutional order is as déclassé as a 2006 BlackBerry.

"There seems to be an inverse relationship between written instruments of freedom, such as a Charter, and freedom itself," mused George Jonas. "It's as if freedom were too fragile to be put into words: If you write down your rights and freedoms, you lose them." That was generally the view of the Britannic part of the English-speaking world until the late 20th century: What's unwritten is as important as, if not more so than, what is. The constitution of Australia, for example, makes no mention of the office of prime minister. The job exists only through custom and convention understood from the United Kingdom, where likewise it existed only through custom and convention: "statutory recognition" in London didn't come till 1937 — or over two centuries after dozens of blokes had been doing the job.

By contrast, on the Continent, where many constitutions date all the way back to the disco era (Greece, 1975; Portugal, 1976; Spain, 1978), if the establishment wants to invent a new "right" — i.e., yet another intrusion by government — it goes ahead and does so. If it happens to conflict with this year's constitution, they rewrite it. The United States is the only Western nation in which our rulers invoke the Constitution for the purpose of overriding it — or, at any rate, torturing its language beyond repair. Thus, in this week's debate on whether Obamacare is merely the latest harmless evolution of the interstate-commerce clause, the most learned and highly remunerated jurists in the land chewed over the matter of whether a person, simply by virtue of being born, was participating in a "market." Had George III shown up at the Constitutional Convention to advance that argument with a straight face, the framers would have tossed aside the quill feathers and reached for their muskets.

Lexington KY: Privately Owned Christian T-Shirt Company Under Attack By Queers, Libtards, and Lawyers for Refusing to Print Rump-Rider T-Shirts

New post on Doctor Bulldog & Ronin Lexington KY: Privately Owned Christian T-Shirt Company Under Attack By Queers, Libtards, and Lawyers for Refusing to Print Rump-Rider T-Shirts by doctorbulldog Welcome to Obama's America where Christian beliefs are attacked and condemned while  sexual and moral turpitude is lauded on high: Gay Rights Group Files Human Rights Complaint Against T-Shirt Company By Todd Starnes - FOX News A Lexington, KY t-shirt company is under investigation by the city's Human Rights Commission after they refused to print t-shirts for a local gay rights organization. The owner of "Hands On Originals," a well-known t-shirt company in the region, declined to print the shirts for the city's Gay and Lesbian Services Organization (GLSO) because it would conflict with their Christian convictions. Hmm...  Does anyone else suspect that this was a setup from the get-go?  Think about it.  Out of all the other T-shirt companies operating in and around the Lexington area, the one openly Christian T-shirt company is "magically" singled out by a bunch of Rump-Riders for use in the production of their newest fashion wear...  C'mon!   Only a faglodyte moron would make that mistake.  That is, unless...this was all a setup by the Butt-Humpers. I'll go with the latter. The privately owned company is now accused of violating Lexington's Fairness Act – which protects people and organizations from discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity. The attacks are out of line, said Jim Campbell, an attorney with Alliance Defense Fund, the organization representing "Hands On Originals." "No business owner should be forced to violate his conscience simply because someone demands it," he said. "The Constitution absolutely supports the rights of business owners to decline a request to support a message that conflicts with their deeply held convictions." [...] On the other hand, there's nothing in the U.S. Constitution supporting the rights of rump-riders to ram their perversity down our unwilling throats.   But, since when has the Left ever actually let a little thing like the U.S. Constitution stop them from pushing their fatuously debasing agenda? Now, you would think surely that Lexington's mayor must be a champion of religious rights in this Midwestern city, right?   Well...  Think again: Even Lexington's openly gay mayor has condemned the privately-owned t-shirt company, telling the Lexington Herald-Leader "People don't have patience for this sort of attitude today." "I'm against discrimination, period," Gray said in a statement released to television station WKYT. "It's bad for business and bad for the city. I support the Human Rights Commission in a full and thorough investigation." [...] The hypocrisy runs deep with Mayor gay Gray.  Let me rephrase that for his queerness:  "I'm against discrimination, so long as those damn, dirty Christians toe my fag line!  After that, all bets are off!"  doctorbulldog | 3 April, 2012 at 10:56 am | Categories: Abuse of Power, Christians, Christians under attack, Gay Agenda, Religion | URL: http://wp.me/p1NPg-7EP Comment    See all comments Unsubscribe or change your email settings at Manage Subscriptions.

[I-S] The Fall of the Moron Civilization

-------

http://www.countingcats.com/?p=11942 

The Fall of the Moron Civilization.

Mar 29th, 2012 by Paul Marks.

A recent BBC programme was on the fall of a Moron Civilization ("Moron Civilization" is not the official name - but you will see….). The BBC may have got the facts wrong (they are not exactly famous for getting history, or anything else,  right), but it is amusing to proceed on the basis that the BBC account is an accurate one.

The Moron people lived in South America and (in the last period of their history anyway) were subjects of the Inca Empire.

The Morons devoted most of their resources to building pyramids - in order to control the weather.

Of course building a pyramid did not enable the Morons to control the weather - but they had an answer to that.

When a pyramid failed to control the weather the Morons burnt the top of it (there were houses and so on on top), and then….

Built another pyramid - another big pyramid.

This would also fail to control the weather - so the Morons would….. (well you can guess the rest).

However, the end of the civilization is interesting - it occured at the time of the Spanish entry into South America, but the Spanish did not destroy the Moron Civilization.

On hearing that the Spanish had entered the Inca Empire, the Morons acted quickly.

What form of military preperations did they undertake?

None at all.

What they did instead was to take some of their own people and cut their hearts out.

First the victims would be drugged so they could not struggle, but would be fully conscious (did I mention the Morons were sadists?).

In spite of this wonderful miltary tactic of killing your own people, the Spanish contiuned to advance deeper into the Empire - closer to the part of the Empire where the Morons lived.

So the Morons killed more (and more) of their own people - see their attitude to the failure of pyramids to control the weather (build more….).

As the Spanish advanced so the Morons cut the hearts out of more and more of their own people, and also indulged in their traditional practice of burning their own buildings….

Till…..

Well when the Spanish finally arrived - there was nobody, everything had fallen apart before they got there (with the locals either being dead - or, the slightly less moronic, fled to starve to death somewhere).

So fell the mighty Moron Civilization - before the Spanish even made contact with it.

"How dare you call these people morons Paul - they were following their traditional religious beliefs…."

Errrr the Politically Correct crowd who come back with that response never cut traditional Christianity any slack  (it is "sexist", "homophobic" and so) so they are rather selective with their cultural tolerance.

"Paul these people were subjects of the great Inca Empire - a noble Welfare State…"

Yes the Inca Empire was a Welfare State - it was also (in its expanded state) only about a century old. There are also the troubling claims that preInca civilizations had the wheel, metal tools and writing.

The Incas had none of these things - they seem to have managed to "deinvent" them. But establishment historians do not like the idea that technological regress is possible - so let us leave aside claims about pre Inca civilizations.

What is less easy to brush under the carpet is that the Inca Empire had just had a civil war before the Spanish arrived - and that a handful of Spanish (operating without any official support) managed to crush the whole civililization (those parts of the Empire that did not crush themselves - see above).

Is it still legal to think that the Civil War and general collapse indicates there might just have been something wrong with this civilization?

Still the charge of cultural insensitivity cuts me deep - so I will balance my attack on the Moron Civilization with an attack upon our own Western one (or what is left of it).

We also spend vast resouces on failed schemes - we call it "monetary and fiscal stimulus", and when these policies fail we EXPAND them.

We "double down" on the "monetary and fiscal stimulus" with new leaders following the same credit bubble policies as the old leaders, only more so.

The Bank of England, the Federal Reserve, the European Central Bank…. off they all go building their credit bubble pyramids, and the more the policy fails the more desperatly it is done.

And how to we react to intruders?

For example, to the "Islamists" (for want of a better word).

We attack ourselves of course.

We do not (yet) tear people's hearts out - but we do persecute (even send to prison) people for expressing thoughts that do not fit in with our modern notions of "Poltical Correctness".

Our enemies need not attack (although they do) - because we are very busy attacking (indeed destroying) ourselves.

The Moron Civilization has returned (although it is soon to die again).

We are now the Morons.

Not that I disagree about fiscal policy, but amongst our civilization's Moronic policies there is one more closely resembling "building huge pointless structures in a laughable attempt to influence the weather" . For instance, there is our policy of, um, building huge pointless structures (with fan blades) in a laughable attempt to influence the weather.

As well as our pyramid schemes to control the financial weather we are building hordes of those weather totems, windfarms, to appease the angry carbon gods.

I fear you are correct that our civilisation is indeed entering the self-destruct phase but let's hope something better comes after the coming police state and barbarism stages.

Protracted national suicide,,,not by sadists but by masochists. Another windfarm topped with the Crescent should do the trick; if not, build another.
Bizarre.

a handful of Spanish … managed to crush the whole civililization

Not strictly true. There were only 169 conquistadors but they were aided by a large army of natives who were keen to see the end of Inca rule. That helped but not as much as the arrival of Small Pox.

Not surprisingly the large Inca Empire was maintained by force and once outsiders started to threaten the status quo there were many groups willing to rise up. But after the Spanish had won, it suited their egos to claim they had achieved success without help. Curiously, this inability to acknowledge that many natives saw their interests as aligned with the "Imperialist" West still befuddles many (progressives) today.

This is not to deny that there was a surfeit of stupid, but we must also acknowledge that the Incas did fight and lose proper battles and it took the Spanish 40 years to finally defeat the Incas. Given that they were using pre-Bronze age weapons and armour, and that concurrently 60+% of the population was dying from epidemics, I can cut them some slack for desperation.

I think you are on surer ground when you refer to our age as the Moronic one. Read the lyrics of Neil Young's Cortez the Killer. Here is a recasting of the Noble Savage and that generation is the one in power trying to force us to live in harmony with nature. And they make films called "The Age of Stupid"

Cortez and Pizarro were magnificent bastards. They were those forces of nature who just inspires awe like Alexander or Hans Ulrich Rudel. BTW TDK Cortez never fought the Incas. He did Mexico. And he did over the Aztecs because (a) he had a small number of horses which scared the shit out of the lokes, a band of absolute desperadoes from Extramadura (I've been there) and (c) epic chutzpah and moxie and an astute political brain. The Aztecs were oppressing local tribes so Cortez changed that game and they were glad to see the Spaniards. He also had an enormous slice of luck. There was an old Aztec prognostication of a white man coming from the sea who would doom them and he managed to arrive on time. (d) Is interesting. The Aztecs saw war primarily as a means to get captives to rip hearts out of up zigurats. The didn't have the Western concept of war as brief, ultra-violent and decisive. This is one of the reasons that whilst the meso-American civs were advanced in many ways they were backward in things like weapons. I suspect the primary reasons Pizzarro had a tougher time are geographical. Logistics would have been a `mare, the alitude wouldn't have helped and bizarre though this may seem one of the reasons why South America (compared to the North where the natives were practically wiped out) has a lot native DNA in it's gene pool is that Spanish attempts to breed over there failed. Apparently pregnancy and birth are very difficult for a woman not acclimatized to the altitude.

I knew Cortez was connected to the Aztecs. Unfortunately I couldn't think of any equivalent relating to the Incas at all, let only one that captured the deluded Savage Noble myth so completely.

I was aware of the rarity of Spanish (and for that matter Portuguese) women migrating to South America. It being common that Spanish men would make their money and retire to Spain in later life. I never thought about the altitude as a factor but that certainly makes sense for Puru & Chile.

I knew that Cortez had the help of large numbers of locals - for some strange reason they objected to having their hearts torn out in Aztec sacrifices (no doubt they were got out by the consumerist propaganda of evil profit seeking transnational corportions).

I did not know Pizarro had such help in Peru - although I should have guessed.

On the smallpox.

Contrary to deluded (Ward Churchill) leftist efforts to pretend otherwise, it was not spread deliberatly (either in South or North Ameica).

But although its impact has been overblown - it was a terrible killer of very large numbers of people.

"Curveball", the Iraqi defector whose WMD lies led to 100,000 deaths confesses all

Man whose WMD lies led to 100,000 deaths
confesses all

http://tinyurl.com/6vekzhx

"Curveball", the Iraqi defector who fabricated claims
about Iraq's weapons of mass destruction, smiles as
he confirms how he made the whole thing up. It was
a confidence trick that changed the course of history,
with Rafid Ahmed Alwan al-Janabi's lies used to justify
the Iraq war.

He tries to defend his actions: "My main purpose was
to topple the tyrant in Iraq because the longer this
dictator remains in power, the more the Iraqi people
will suffer from this regime's oppression."

The chemical engineer claimed to have overseen the
building of a mobile biological laboratory when he
sought political asylum in Germany in 1999. His lies
were presented as "facts and conclusions based on
solid intelligence" by Colin Powell, US Secretary of
State, when making the case for war at the UN
Security Council in February 2003.

But Mr Janabi, speaking in a two-part series, Modern
Spies, starting tomorrow on BBC2, says none of it
was true. When it is put to him "we went to war in
Iraq on a lie. And that lie was your lie", he simply
replies: "Yes."

Dupes for the State

Dupes for the State
by Walter E. Williams

Public misunderstanding, ignorance and possibly contempt for liberty play into the hands of people who want to control our lives. Responses to my recent column "Compliant Americans" brought this home to me. In it, I argued that the anti-tobacco movement became the template and inspiration for other forms of government intrusion, such as bans on restaurants serving foie gras, McDonald's giving Happy Meals with toys, and confiscating a child's home-prepared lunch because it didn't meet Department of Agriculture guidelines. A few responses read like this: "Smoking is different because that actually affects other people. We should be living by the notion that you should be able to do whatever you want as long as you don't hurt other people. Smoking hurts other people."

If we banned or restricted all activities that affect, harm or have the possibility of harming other people, it wouldn't be a very nice life. Let's look at what can affect or harm other people. Non-obese people are harmed by obesity, as they have to pay more for health care, through either higher taxes or higher insurance premiums. That harm could be reduced by a national version of a measure introduced in the Mississippi Legislature in 2008 by state Rep. W.T. Mayhall that in part read, "An act to prohibit certain food establishments from serving food to any person who is obese, based on criteria prescribed by the state Department of Health." The measure would have revoked licenses of food establishments that violated the provisions of the act. Fortunately, the measure never passed, but there's always a next time.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported that in 2010, nearly 33,000 people were killed in auto crashes. That's a lot of harm that could be reduced by lowering the speed limit to 5 or 10 miles an hour. You say, "Williams, that's ridiculous!" What you really mean to say but don't have the courage to is that to save all of those lives by making the speed limit 5 or 10 miles per hour is not worth the inconvenience. Needless to say – or almost so – there are many activities we engage in that either cause harm to others or have the potential for doing so, but we don't ban all of these activities.

One of the least-understood functions of private property rights is that of determining who may harm whom in what ways. In a free society, it is presumed that the air in a person's house, restaurant, hotel, car or place of business is his property. That means that if you own a restaurant and don't want your air polluted by tobacco smoke, it is your right. Most would deem it tyranny if a bunch of smokers had the political power to get the city council to pass an ordinance forcing you to permit smoking. You'd probably deem it more respectful of liberty if those who wanted to smoke sought a restaurant owner who permitted smoking. The identical argument can be made about a restaurant owner who permits smoking in a city where nonsmokers have the political power. The issue is not whether smoking harms others. The issue is the rights associated with property ownership.

The emerging tragedy is our increased willingness to use the coercive powers of government, in the name of health or some other ruse, to forcibly impose our preferences upon others. In the whole scheme of things, the tobacco issue itself is trivial. Far more important is its template for massive government disrespect for private property.

John Adams said, "The moment the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the laws of God, and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence."
