  • 15 Reasons Why the Pro-Life Movement is Winning on Abortion

    Since you want to talk political demographics, let us discuss. US population is 65 percent white, 14 percent black, 13 percent hispanic, 3 percent Asian, 3 percent Jewish, 3 percent others. Avg breakdown, amongst Jews and colors for Dem is 2/3 for Dems with hispanics, asians, Jews and 90 percent for Dem amongst blacks. 100 voters, these groups provide 29 Dem voters out of the 51 needed to win a close election. All you need is 22 out of 65 whites to vote Dem to carry the election. The only way white liberals can win is to reach out to minorities with the theme that whites are their enemies and people of color must unite. This has been a good strategy for liberal Dems. 50 percent of the abortions in the US is white and the other half is black/hispanic combination. The whites having abortions are not your conservative whites, but rather moderate/liberal whites. Abortion impacts the Dem demographic coalition more then the conservative coalition. What is riding in this cultural war is not abortion alone, but our economic system and personal liberties. The coalition that supports abortion also supports issues that is the opposite to what most prolife people believe in and trying to preserve. The US has become a divided nation, every election is becoming a hard knuckle affair. Despite control of education, pop culture and MSM, Dems cannot decisively control gov forever because they can barely hobble together a coalition. Abortion has played a behind the scene role (past behvior has come to haunt their present situation). Your post implies that abortion has a black racial dimension, I say yes based on political demographic facts, but not from what your post implies, that I am racially motivated to kill blacks with abortion. Racist no, but I am guilty of being a cold calculating strategic bastard. Wars are won with strategy and tactics, and not principles alone. In terms of winning the war to preserve our free economic system and personal liberties thru close elections, it may be a necessary and useful evil tool to let our enemies inflict on themselves and limit their growth in numbers. While we debate, liberals are on the move to break the demographic deadlock, it is call anmesty and open borders.

    In a cultural war between pro life and abortionists, numbers on each side do count in elections, you got to admit my argument does have some merit. If you ever watch the movie The Godfather, Don Corleone had to deal with the subject of drugs. He knew it was lucrative but it also can affect his Italian community. He was forced to relent, as long as his subordinates kept it out of the Italian neighborhoods. Like the strategic Don said, sell it to the others, let them lose their souls. Abortion is abhorrent, but if your enemies embrace it let them kill off their young while we raise ours. Never stop your enemies from doing stupid things.

    There is a similar case where a guy travel thru NJ but stopped at his mothers. His mother was concern that he just divorced his wife and might commit suicide. She called the cops to find him. Cops later located him back at his mothers. When ask where his guns were, he told them they were in his car, because he was moving from his old home to a new apartment at a new out of state location. The cops confirmed the story and the guns were packed in the guys towed trailer on the bottom of all his household items. When the report reached the local DA, the DA decided to press charges. According to NJ law, when traveling to old location to new location, one cannot deviate from a reasonable direct route nor can one make stops along the way. Stopping at his mothers place was a violation of NJ gun transportation laws.
    Another similar case involved a former out of state police officer who was traveling thru NJ to his new location out of state. He decided to park in a lot to rest and dozed off. Cops came by an noticed a lone car with driver in it and stopped to check. The awoken driver explained what happen and showed ID. One cop noticed the thru the station wagon window some boxes that look like possible gun cases and ordered a search of the vehicle for firearms. Packed guns were found and the out of state driver was charged with violating NJ transportation of gun laws, person must travel from old location directly to new location. No unreasonable stops allowed. Both of these individuals went to jail. Gov Christie commuted the sentence of the first one, but the arrest is still on his record and his right to own guns in the US is forfeited.

    IMHO legal right to abortion has kept the Dem ranks down, do the GOP really want them to keep and raise their kids to be future Dem voters if abortion is made illegal? Old Tzu Strategem, let your enemies keep doing stupid things. Ever saw the video of the liberal girl who attacked a group of pro Life people and display on a street in Ohio. Imagine if she was forced to keep her out of wedlock child. Imagine what that child be like if she with her facist liberal attitude raised it to adult hood. Or worst has several out of wedlock babies and raised them up to be like her facist liberal mindset. Let your adversaries kill their young, just remember to keep yours and raise them to love their unborn.

    See post 45. Got an employer who claims most of his US candidates cannot pass basic software test. Either he does not know or knows the game that is played. Interview 100 people, pick US candidates from no name schools and foreign candidates from great schools. Subject them to a test, viola, US candidates fail and foreign ones pass. See the US has a shortage of skilled IT workers, need more H-1B slots!!!! It is very funny, IT industry presents themselves as cool and progressive, but closer look they are no more ruthless as the industrial barons of the late 19th century. Keep this up and main street Americans will quit the Tea Party and join OWS. Atleast OWS will march to CEO homes in masks and holding torches and put the fear in them.

    Oldest game you employers play. Select American candidates from no name schools vs foreign born students from great colleges. Have a test, see the results, American candidates suck and foreign ones are qualified. I got students from great tech schools whose resumes are ignored while foreign born students from the same tech schools are snatched up for next level interviews. Maybe at your level you prefer American workers vs the paperwork of H-1B, but someone in HR thinks otherwise. Situation got so abusive that Computer World (a pro IT mag) had to write an article on the subject. I think Congress should investigate this so call skill/tech gap between US and foreign candidates. Colleges claim US leads in higher education and thousands of foreign students flock to US vs home country. About 2/3 of the students do not grad or change majors. Top US colleges are tough. Top of the line US school charge huge tuitions and hold high reputations yet their IT grads have the same unemployment rate as no name colleges???!!!! So either corporations are lying about the quality of US grads or the top US tech colleges are lying about the quality of their high price education.

    What f___ing BS!!!! High tech companies want techno coolies to do work that US college tech grads will do (but at 1/3 salary). Computer World just did an article about techno coolies hired by Silicon Valley firms. If we truly have a shortage of tech workers, then let us do it by the free market way and not sponsor H-1B fraught with indenture conditions. Example, if we need tech skill A, then let us immigrate tech skill A people. Let that immigrant throw out his resume listing the badly needed skills and let the American firms make offers to hire him. That is not how corporate America wants it done. They want H-1 applicants. The process works like this. Google secures 100 H-1 VISA. Google HR calls their handlers in China and ask them to recruit 100 Chinese IT workers for a fee. The Chinese handlers fill the 100 slots with Chinese tech workers by offering to do their paperwork to come to the US. In return they work for the US company on the H-1B application for seven years at a salary that is 1/3 of US worker he will replace. During those seven years, the Chinese worker cannot take better offers and jump companies. The Chinese worker is told make their American employer happy and do not ever get fired before the 7 year term is up, otherwise someone in his family in China owes the handlers for the application costs. Debt collectors will come to family home with hammers (ie someone will have his legs broken). That is H-1B in a nutshell. The US already is paying for the fact they did not learn how to pick their own cotton, now US software companies are repeating history with their own version of slavery. For free trading freepers remember this when the PLA builds high tech weapons and sink the ship that your son or grandson is serving on. Wonder how they learn to make such good electronics and the software that guides it??? Corporate capitalist bastards.

    Replacement of the dollar will occur slowly. China cannot just back her currency with gold and let the US dollar fall. Overnight Chinese products will cost too much in foreign countries. No one can afford to buy Chinese made goods. If it happen today, there will be total chaos because too many financial systems use the dollar. Sudden conversion and devaluation will implode the world system. China will be engulf by the chaos. China will replace the dollar by the end of the 21st Century by gradual means. Too many freepers think China will use military power like Russia, but if one were to look at the strengths and weakness of US vs China, military power China is a distant second in terms of military budget and third in terms of firepower after Russia (who has 10,000 nuke warheads). However if one looks at China’s economic strength we see a different story. Right now China GDP just turn equal to US GDP. China foreign currency reserves is $ 2600 trillion while the US is only $150 trillion. China’s strength is financial not military. There is an old Chinese adage, cover your weakness by making loud threats, hide your strengths by being modest or silent. Unlike typical third world nations, China did not have a loud celebration or made major gov announcements when the world bank posted that China GDP is equal to or may slightly exceeded the US GDP. The PLA on the other hand has made aggressive demonstrations on sea disputes and their generals urged military action in public. IMHO China uses her PLA to make noise and draw attention away from her real national strength, which is financial. The US fleet will not be sunk by PLA missiles, but rather budget cuts as the US can no longer afford the ships. Example, China just commission her first carrier, the US navy may be forced to reduce her fleet by one carrier due to budget constraints.

    Dems are having second thoughts about employer mandate. So the SCOTUS gut one funding source, the Dems repeal the other funding sources and taxes, problem is Obamacare still doles out the benefits. It will end up very little benefits will be repealed and most onerous taxes to fund it will be repealed. Net effect will be medical insurance for the poor with no revenue stream to pay for it. Instead of dying, the gov will avoid taking the benefits away and fund it by borrowing.

    Education needs to begin in corporate America. CEO spout that for one immigrant (legal or illegal) help create six jobs for Americans. Imagine that?!!! Problem is CEO are presented studies that expouse net benefits of having immigrants (legal and illegal) and sweeps the price of it under the table. It is like a French general expousing the benefits of WW1 because in net France did win over the Germans but the lost generation of young men and its effect on French society is never discussed. Same mind set amongst US CEO, bottom line they make tons of money, the social ill effects are dumped onto the tazpayer and middle class/poor class America. Callous bastards. Take out the power/money centers (corporate America) promoting illegal immigration and you will end this illegal immigration reform nonsense.

    This is inevitable. Creating a Jewish homeland after being absent for over 1700 years in a land inhabitated by numerous intolerant Muslim Arabs at a time when Arab nationalism was on the rise in the Arab world equals wars and bloody conflict. Arabs are not going to give up because they have the numbers. The only way this is going to end is when the Arabs drive the Jews into the sea or the Jews nuke all the Arab nations. Homeland to avoid a future Holocause ends up being a potential site of another Holocaust. I know many freepers do not like what I post on the ill conceived notion of a Jewish Homeland in 1948, but read Gen Marshall commentary on this matter when he was the Sec of State under Pres Truman. He actually resigned when the US supported the UN partition. He was not an anti Semite, but rather a level headed strategists. Many of his general predictions are coming true on what will happen to the US in the Middle East and the conflicts that will come after the partition. Sad part is the US involvement meant an Arab bullseye is painted on the US for future terror attacks. Nonentanglement, nonentanglement was the byword our founding fathers warned. God gave us two barrier oceans, large continental size nation rich in resources. We were suppose to be the shining city on the hill for the world to see and hopefully adopt. Not the leader of the free world or arsenal of democracy to lead crusades and pax America via empire building. Stay home, maintain a strong military and neutrality, conduct commerce, and build a prosperous society. Not the bankrupt ways of being the policeman of the world.

    The liberals you are calling are actually blue collar Dems. Real liberals do not care about illegals, as long as they vote Dem and allow the rich liberals create a socialist dystopia. Blue collar Dems vote Dem because too many conservatives support free trade and have too much trust and faith in corporate America/Wall Street bankers.

    There is already 4 cases of TB reported. Here is the real bad news, it is the drug resistant type. The hastily formed shelters packed these kids into type spaces with very little medical screening before arrival. Wonder how well DHS is screening them before they put them on buses to be sent to other centers or families. DHS is centrally controlled by the exec branch under the leadership of Obama and radical leftists. They want voters so bad they do not care about the health issues they wrought on this nation. Neither does the US corporations who want cheap labor even if it makes life miserable for Main Street Americans. I cannot believe no one can file a lawsuit without the courts rejecting it on the grounds that the plaintiff has no standing. Does the courts want people to wait till someone dies before one can sue the US gov???!!!!!

    The story does not tell about the partner in treason to the left, corporate America. It is call indentured servants and cheap manual labor that is the big prize. I know, free traders say what is wrong with this. Well if we have a shortage of special tech, then let us immigrate spec tech workers and have them offer their services to the best offer by tech companies. That is true free markets. Sounds close to what the corporations want, except they want H1B workers where an overseas arranger will recruit these techni coolies for corporate America. Here is the deal, arranger will help Chinese and Indian tech workers come to America by taking care of the paperwork, but in return the worker must work for the American company for seven years at one third American salary officially doing the spec work but actually take over typical tech duties that are currently being done by US tech workers and college grads. So an unholy alliance is form, Dem want voters and corporate America wants cheap tech and manual labor. Each cannot do it by themselves politically so they get together, Dems scheme with left lawyers to get as many illegals in the country to stay and corporate America will work on the GOP via lobbying and cushy post political career offers.

    Why do you think Putin is holding back using a full blown invasion of Ukraine. First the fighing would destroy the gas lines depriving Russia means to export for cash to Europe. The second problem is how will Russia (GDP only 2 trillion) support Russian Ukrainians whose standard of living is lower then the Russians. Add to that a mini arms race with NATO and occupation costs of holding down the non Russian Ukrainians. Russia will go the way of the Soviet Union, too much financial pressure leading to economic collapse. Even if Russia does not collapse, a stressed Russia will drive Russia deeper into the control of a more powerful and richer (GDP of 14 trillion) China. Putin is learning very quickly that in a world with many potential super powers, the first ones that fight will lose.

    Chinese history did not begin in 1948 with Communist rule, it began 2100 BC before dynasties formed, and just dynastic history which includes the Communist (they are sort of a dynasty) we are talking about 2300 years of historical experience. Dealing with Turko peoples (before and after Islam) began during th silk route of the Han dyanasty thru present. This is not the first uprising China dealt with in this region. The leaders of China are Communist but they are not divorced of their vast historical past experience. IMHO China has a more realistic approach in assessing and dealing with Muslim Turko peoples then a US gov approach which is riddled with PC and policy of national suicide.

    Corporate America will be out in force on the MSM with study after study claiming immigrants help improve US economy and create jobs. FOX show Independents had the panel of libertarians attack the sole FAIR rep, claiming any anti illegal immigration viewpoint is BS. The main female host held up papers and waved it at the FAIR claiming that immigrants did not cause the US recession and wage decreases. That is the new mantra, mixing legal immigration results with illegal immigration data and claim that immigration is good for US economy. Problem is MSM and corporate propaganda is not working. In the past people watching that on TV rolled their eyes, today they are cursing out the TV announcer. The average guy on the street is barely making ends meet, the last thing he wants is illegal immigrant children dumped into his community driving up gov costs. This cuts across party lines. I think this is going to explode.
    Rich people, corporations, politicians, people of color and liberal whites/libertarians, better watch their backs. America is in no mood for this BS anymore.
