Tea Party Madman Holds Quasi-Militia Sign

CNN analyst suspects something sinister and dangerous amongst the tea party



Clueless CNN Analyst Afraid of 'Quasi-Militia' Movement

Jeffrey Tobin's headline at AC360 Blog:

Tea parties - political debate or diatribe?

He writes:

"The real mystery for me is whether this is just ordinary political grumbling, which is perfectly appropriate, or the start of something worse — a quasi-militia movement that could become sinister and dangerous."

My comment to Tobin:

I’ve got news for you: "quasi-militia" is already here. Those under that category just might be bolstered by a revolt of any kind. But to categorize the tea parties as such is just showing your ignorance. These are everyday people that want a voice…a loud one at that. They’ve discovered that Obama & Company are way too intrusive into their lives then they feel comfortable with. Remember the Bush "wire taps" that were such a fear mongering tool for liberals? Well, try on an Obama-style government that controls every facet of your life because they hold the purse strings, and are sticking their hands into your pocket. That’s fear you can believe in!

Obama says he inherited bad humor from Bush

Obama cracks Special Olympics 'joke' on Leno show



This from Associated Press:

BURBANK, Calif. — President Barack Obama might have rolled a gutter ball on NBC's "The Tonight Show."

Toward the end of the interview on Thursday, Obama told host Jay Leno he's been practicing at the White House's bowling alley but wasn't happy with his score of 129.

Leno complimented Obama on the score, but the president quipped, "It was like the Special Olympics or something," which prompted laughter from the audience.

Deputy Press Secretary Bill Burton said the president's offhand remark was not meant to disparage the Special Olympics, only to poke some fun at the commander-in-chief's bowling skills......

Not "meant to disparage the Special Olympics?"

How about not meant to be inconsiderate of people who are mentally handicapped and who are seen as stars by their families while they make efforts to perform to the best of their physical abilities?

Oh, wait, this just in...Obama supporters say the president inherited the mentally handicapped people problem from the Bush administration.

The president's supporters went on to say that humor that isn't humorous was also inherited from the Bush administration.

Question: Do you think it was good strategery for Obama to go on Leno?

Condoms Are a Bust!

This from Concerned Women for America:

Record High Teen Pregnancy and Record High Money for Comprehensive Sex Education

WASHINGTON -- (Christian Newswire) The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released 2007 data today reporting that the number of teen births is at a record high.

Dr. Janice Shaw Crouse, Director and Senior Fellow of Concerned Women for America's (CWA) Beverly LaHaye Institute, asks, "When over two-thirds of public schools (68 percent) teach comprehensive sex education and those programs receive more than four times the amount of federal funding than the amount designated for abstinence programs, it's time to ask Dr. Phil's question, 'How's that working for you?'"

Crouse declares, "The focus on condoms is obviously not working. When leftist ideology leaves so many of our teens pregnant, parents must speak out to the nation's policymakers to demand that our vulnerable young people have the opportunity to hear the truth.

Abstinence until marriage is possible and it is desirable. Abstinence programs teach our teenagers self-control and help them gain self-respect. They learn how to say 'no' and they learn to set goals for a bright and promising future."

"Most teens want to get married and have children," said Crouse. "They don't want to short-circuit their potential. Most of the teens that have sex tell pollsters later that they wish that they had waited. If given the opportunity, those teens can learn how to be in control of their future and realize their goals and dreams.

Those who tell teens to surrender to their raging hormones as long as they are protected by a condom ought to be there when that teenage girl has to tell her parents that she is pregnant and that her boyfriend is long gone."

Crouse concluded, "Everybody needs to call their Members of Congress to express outrage at the amount of money going to Planned Parenthood and other groups that are promoting comprehensive sex education and spreading falsehoods about the effectiveness of abstinence programs. We need to quit funding groups who give out false information that leaves our teens vulnerable in ways that affect the rest of their lives."

"New game, new game," said a defiant Ward Churchill, referring to his intent to sue the university after the state Board of Regents voted 8-1 Tuesday to remove him as ethnic studies chairman.

Three faculty committees had accused Churchill of plagiarism, falsification and other misconduct in portions of his research. The allegations were unrelated to an essay he wrote that likened some victims of the 2001 terrorist attacks to a Nazi leader.

David Lane, Churchill's attorney, said his client's dismissal simply marks a change in venue for the dispute.

"We're out of kangaroo court and going into real court," he said.
