If only more big city newspapers were like the Washington Times.

Get’s better. Today Matthews did a end of program special comment about how negative ads are bad for democracy. But in 2005-2008 his show was one endless negative ad against republicans, and then he voiced no concern about the ‘Shadow Party’s” negative ads against republicans. Then it was democracy.

This guy is a complete phony.

I recall all too well the seditious, undermining of the fifth column American left that occured between 2000 and 2008 when they led us down this self-destructive path. Where was the outrage then? You reap what you sow.

Moreover, the antiwar left engaged in hateful vitriol that makes Tea Party rallies seem like Sunday picnics. Mr. Bush routinely was compared to Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler. He was denounced as a war criminal. Code Pink protesters held up signs urging that Mr. Bush be shot. He was slandered regularly as a liar, imperialist and fascist. The left's narrative was that the Republican Party had erected a right-wing military junta: "Bush-Cheney-Hitler-Halliburton" was the antiwar movement's cry. "Bush lied, people died," was another slogan. It was not conservatives, but Bush-bashing progressives who espoused incendiary, violent rhetoric.

Mr. Klein and Mr. Clinton were silent when Hollywood demonized Mr. Bush - for example, in Michael Moore's despicable and patently mendacious film, "Fahrenheit 9/11." They were silent when former Vice President Al Gore claimed Mr. Bush had "betrayed this country."

This information should be trumpeted every time the Obamabots whine that the Tea Partiers are mean and nasty to their god.

Bush was demonized as no American President has been in our lifetime. There were posters of his head in a basket with a guillotine above, and no one minded.

And yet if we see Obama as "The Joker" on a poster (actually originated by a Dem, btw), they cry and complain.

The hypocrisy of Bush haters needs to be exposed.

"Have at it, go fight, go do whatever you want," Mr. Clinton said in a speech. "You don't have to be nice; you can be harsh. But you've got to be very careful not to advocate violence or cross the line."

Of course nobody in The Press called him on that. Of course not.

The irony is that those who are establishing collectivism in America are accusing the individualists of racism, whereas, as this article shows, racism in a society increases in direct proportion to the amount of the collectivism imposed upon it and inversely with the amount of individualism protected.  After all, if groupism is the main criteria for identifying people, skin color is the easiest one that people with limitations or handicaps in their ability to understand the world can cope with.
 
   Historically, racism has always risen or fallen with the rise or fall of collectivism. Collectivism holds that the individual has no rights, that his life and work belong to the group (to "society," to the tribe, the state, the nation) and that the group may sacrifice him at its own whim to its own interests.  The only way to implement a doctrine of that kind is by means of brute force -- and statism has always been the poltical corollary of collectivism.

   The absolute state is merely an institutionalized form of gang rule, regardless of which particular gang seizes power.  And -- since there is no rational justification for such rule, since none has ever been or can ever be offered -- the mystique of racism is a crucial element in every variant of the absolute state.  The relationship is reciprocal: statism rises out of prehistorical tribal warfare, out of the notion that the men of one tribe are the natural prey for the men of another -- and establishes its own internal sub-categories of racism, a system of castes determined by a man's birth, such as inherited titles of nobility or inherited serfdom.

   The racism of Nazi Germany -- where men had to fill questionnaires about their ancestry for generations back, in order to prove their "Aryan" descent -- has its counterpart in Soviet Russia, where men had to fill similar questionnaires to show that their ancestors had owned no property and thus to prove their "proletarian" descent.  The Soviet ideology rest on the notion that men can be conditioned to communism genetically -- that is, that a few generations conditioned by dictatorship will transmit communist ideology to their descendants, who will be communists at birth.  The persecution of racial minorities in Soviet Russia, according to the racial descent and whim of any given commissar, is a matter of record; anti-semitism is particularly prevalent -- only the official pogroms are now called "political purges."

   There is only one antidote to racism: the philosophy of individualism and its politico-economic corollary, laissez-faire capitalism.

   Individualism regards man -- every man -- as an independent, sovereign entity who possesses an inalienable right to his own life, a right derived from his nature as a rational being.  Individualism holds that a civilized society, or any form of association, cooperation or peaceful co-existence among men, can be achieved only on the basis of the recognition of individual rights -- and that a group, as such, has no rights other than the individual rights of its members. 

   It is not a man's ancestors or relatives or genes or body chemistry that count in a free market, but only one human attribute: productive ability.  It is by his own individual ability and ambition that capitalism judges a man and rewards him accordingly.

   No political system can establish universal rationality by law (or by force).  But capitalism is the only system that functions in a way which rewards rationality and penalizes all forms of irrationality, including racism.

   A fully free, capitalist system has not yet existed anywhere.  But what is enormously significant is the correlation of racism and political controls in the semi-free economies of the 19th century.  Racial and/or religious persecutions of minorities stood in inverse ratio to the degree of a country's freedom.  Racism was strongest in the more controlled economies, such as Russia and Germany -- and weakest in England, the then freest country of Europe.

"especially the [statements] coming from people like Glenn Beck and to a certain extent Sarah Palin, rub right up close to being seditious."

So charge 'em already! Arrest 'em, put them in jail and shut down Talk Radio!

See where that gets you!

Not to be outdone, former President Bill Clinton seized upon the 15th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing to compare Tea Party participants to potential Tim McVeighs.

The fact of the matter is that the Clinton Administration, with the aid of its friends in the MSM, have covered up to this day the crux of the Oklahoma City bombing plot. It was masterminded by Islamic terrorists from the Middle East with likely connections to Al Qaeda! McVeigh and Nichols, the only two people to be prosecuted by the Clinton DOJ in connection with the bombing, were merely treasonous operatives at the bottom of the conspiracy chain, while the Islamists were not even mentioned by official sources. (See Jayna Davis' remarkable book, The Third Terrorist: The Middle East Connection to the Oklahoma City Bombing, published by WND Books, 2004.)

So in covering up the Middle East involvement in Oklahoma City, the Clintonoids and their pals are whitewashing a major national security lapse under their watch - and have continued to do so for 15 years! Much more convenient to blame the whole thing on a pair of isolated "right wing extremists" than to get into the much bigger problem of Islamic terrorism and the failure of the Clinton Administration to adequately deal with it.

On the Tax Day Tea Party Rally in Grand Prairie Texas, I took video camera in hand and interviewed attendees. I did this knowing it would counter the media misrepresentaion of the Tea Partiers.

PLEASE FORWARD these links to anyone who has been lied to by the media and politicians about the Tea Party Movement, which of course is everybody.
