...And Environmental Justice For All, Comrades!

Hey, take a look at what I found on the EPA's website (Yes, I have a life. Really. I do. Promise.):

**********************************

"Environmental Justice is the fair treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. Fair treatment means that no group of people should bear a disproportionate share of the negative environmental consequences resulting from industrial, governmental and commercial operations or policies. Meaningful involvement means that: (1) people have an opportunity to participate in decisions about activities that may affect their environment and/or health; (2) the publics contribution can influence the regulatory agency's decision; (3) their concerns will be considered in the decision making process; and (4) the decision makers seek out and facilitate the involvement of those potentially affected."

***********************************

Hmmmm....environmental justice....environmental justice.....where did hear that before....? Dang, the 90's were such a blur...Oh, wait, now I remember!

***********************************

"Mother Jones: Can you briefly explain what "environmental justice" means to you?

Van Jones: Environmental justice is the movement to ensure that no community suffers disproportionate environmental burdens or goes without enjoying fair environmental benefits."


************************************

Yep, that's the same Maoist who served as Chairman Obama's "Green Jobs Czar". ('till Glenn Beck exposed him and the Big Mommy Regime quietly fired him over the weekend. Ah....the days when Glenn Beck was still cool....No bizarre attacks on Newt Gingrich.....Ah, those were the days, weren't they ?)


No, really, the guy is a Maoist:

***********************************

"Recalling his brief incarceration, Jones says: 'I met all these young radical people of color. I mean really radical: communists and anarchists. And it was, like, ‘This is what I need to be a part of.’ I spent the next ten years of my life working with a lot of those people I met in jail, trying to be a revolutionary.'

"After leaving Yale in 1993, Jones relocated to San Francisco, where he helped establish Bay Area Police Watch, a hotline and lawyer-referral service that began as a project of LCCR and specialized in demonizing local police. In 1996 he founded the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights, which, claiming that the American criminal-justice system was infested with racism, sought to promote alternatives to incarceration. Jones headed the Baker Center from 1996 to 2007. Between 1999 and 2009, the Baker Center received more than $1 million from......."

***********************************

 From.....c'mon, take a guess......Yep. The Fuhrer himself, George $oros.

Needless to say, Van the Maoist is very big on the whole concept of environmental justice. In fact he said this in 2008: (For craps and giggles, I'm going to add emphasis to certain words. Maybe we'll see a pattern of some sort emerge.)

********************************

"MJ: What's the relationship between environmental justice and sustainability ?

VJ: Well, the only reason that we have the unsustainable accounting that we have right now is because incinerators, dumping grounds, and sacrifice zones were put where poor people live. It would never have been allowed if you had to put all the incinerators and nasty stuff in rich people's neighborhoods; we'd have had a sustainable economy a long time ago. We'd have had a clean and green economy a long time ago. It's the environmental racism that allowed the powerful people in society to turn a blind eye for decades to the downsides of the industrial system that got us to this point. So there's a direct relationship between environmental racism and the lack of sustainability of society as a whole. We were the canaries in the coal mines, crying for relief. Now finally the consequences are affecting everyone, with global warming and everything else. The other thing is that the environmental justice agenda is also changing. Before, it was much stronger on demanding equal protection from environmental bad. Now we are also demanding equal opportunity and equal access to environmental good. We don't want to be first and worst with all the toxins and all the negative effects of global warming, and then benefit last and least from all the breakthroughs in solar, wind energy, organic food, all the positives. We want an equal share, an equitable share, of the work wealth and the benefits of the transition to a green economy."



**********************************

Wanna see something really weird ? Let's go back to the EPA's website. Again, because I'm a "racist, homophobic, climate change denying, Zionist war-mongering Right Wing nutjob", I'm going to add emphasis to some words:

***********************************


"How Did the Environmental Justice Movement Arise? The environmental justice movement was started by individuals, primarily people of color, who sought to address the inequity of environmental protection in their communities. Grounded in the struggles of the 1960's Civil Rights Movement, this movement sounded the alarm about the public health dangers for their families, their communities and themselves.

Early in 1990, the Congressional Black Caucus, a bipartisan coalition of academic, social scientists and political activists met with EPA officials to discuss their findings that environmental risk was higher for minority and low-income populations. They alleged that EPA's inspections were not addressing their communities' needs. In response, the EPA Administrator created the Environmental Equity Workgroup in July 1990 to address the allegation that "racial minority and low-income populations bear a higher environmental risk burden than the general population."
The Workgroup produced a report, 'Reducing Risk in All Communities', in June 1992 that supported the allegation and made ten recommendations for addressing the problem. One of the recommendations was to create an office to address these inequities. Thus, the Office of Environmental Equity was established November 1992. The name was changed to Office of Environmental Justice (OEJ) in 1994.

On Feb 11, 1994, President Bill Clinton signed Executive Order 12898, Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority Populations and Low-Income Populations", to focus federal attention on the environmental and human health conditions of minority and low-income populations with the goal of achieving environmental protection for all communities. The Order directed federal agencies to develop environmental justice strategies to help federal agencies address disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects of their programs on minority and low-income populations. The order is also intended to promote nondiscrimination in federal programs that affect human health and the environment. It aims to provide minority and low-income communities access to public information and public participation in matters relating to human health and the environment. The Presidential Memorandum accompanying the order underscores certain provisions of existing law that can help ensure that all communities and persons across the nation live in a safe and healthy environment."

************************************

Yep. The "fundamental tranformation" of America didn't start with Chairman Obama. It started under Bill Caligula. Now if I remember right, Bill had a Vice President named Al Snore, who, by sheer coincidence of course, would stand to make billions from this madness. You know what else ? Bill Caligula was also married to this woman, who, once again, this is just coincidence, just happened to have a mentor named Saul Alinsky. Yep, it's just Crazytown how that all worked out, huh ?

Creating a Marxist-Leninist command and control Soviet style economy isn't easy. (Just ask "Republican" Presidential Candidate Mitt Trotsky. Look how it blew up in his face in Taxachusetts.) You gotta have a plan, Comrade. You can't just come in and slaugher the bourgeoisie all Che Guevara-like. That's soooo late Twentieth Century. First, you have to have a cadre ready. For example, a person like this would be very helpful. True Believer, I'd like you to meet Nia Robinson. Ms. Robinson is member of the National Environmental Justice Advisory Council at the EPA (AKA--the Empire Protection Agency.)

**************************************

"Robinson, Nia
Environmental Justice and Climate Change Initiative

Ms. Robinson is the Director of the Environmental Justice and Climate Change Initiative (EJCC) in Washington, D.C. She was a 2003 Climate Justice Corps Fellow prior to joining EJCC. She was also an organizer and labor relations representative with Service Employees International Union [emphasis added] and a program organizer with the Earth Tomorrow Program of the National Wildlife Federation. Ms. Robinson co-authored the July 2008 report, A Climate of Change: African Americans, Global Warming, and a Just Climate Policy for the U.S."



***********************************

Not only do you need the right people to help out, you also need the political will to pull it off. (It also doesn't hurt when you're a rogue federal agency like the EPA that doesn't have to answer to those pesky voters and you get to make "regulations" that carry the same weight as laws.) Emphasis added where appropriate:

**********************************


"Dear Colleagues:

 Expanding the conversation on environmentalism and working for environmental justice are among my top priorities for our work at the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. All too often, low-income, minority and tribal Americans live in the shadows of the worst pollution, facing disproportionate health impacts and greater obstacles to economic growth in communities that cannot attract businesses and new jobs.

 In 1994, President Bill Clinton issued an executive order directing all federal agencies to participate in a governmentwide effort to address environmental justice issues. To strengthen our efforts in anticipation of the 20th anniversary of that directive and to ensure that the EPA is setting a standard for all other agencies, I am pleased to share our comprehensive environmental justice strategy

Plan EJ 2014. Plan EJ 2014 builds on the solid foundation we have established at the EPA to expand the conversation on environmentalism. Since my first days as Administrator, I have traveled the country to meet with diverse communities and listen to their concerns. And I am committed to making environmental justice an essential part of our decision making. Plan EJ 2014 offers a road map that will enable us to better integrate environmental justice and civil rights into our programs, policies and daily work. The plan focuses on agencywide areas critical to advancing environmental justice, including rulemaking, permitting, compliance and enforcement, community-based programs and our work with other federal agencies. It also establishes specific milestones to help us meet the needs of overburdened neighborhoods through our decision making, scientific analysis and rulemaking. Every American deserves clean air, water and land in the places where they live, work, play and learn.

Through our implementation of Plan EJ 2014, the EPA will be leading by example in expanding the conversation on environmentalism and working for environmental justice – now and into the future. I am proud to be a part of this effort and ask you to join me as we strengthen our mission to protect the health of all Americans.

Sincerely,

Lisa P. Jackson [EPA Administrator]"

All kidding aside:

We are on the edge of complete and total economic, political, and social disaster.

I can't gussy it up.

I can't make it sound palatable.

God help us all.

A Very Personal Message To Barack Hussein Obama

Recently, our Failed Messiah, Barack Hussein Obama had this to say about the Trayvon Martin fiasco:
(Don't worry. This column is NOT about the Creepy Left's new Horst Wessel. Enough electrons have died needless deaths on him.)


***********************************


"All of us have to do some soul-searching to figure out how does something like this happen. And that means that we examine the laws and the context for what happened as well as the specifics of the incident."

***********************************

Really, Barry ? I mean, really ? I need to do some soul searching ?

In my entire life, I've never (in no particular order):

  • hung out in a "church" led by a lunatic who hates Jews and whites.
  • associated myself with domestic terrorists like Bill Ayers or international terrorists like Rashid Khalidi.
  • associated myself with a scam artist like Tony Rezko.
  • supported an uprising that resulted in a military dictatorship, as you did with Egypt.
  • gave a speech at a Catholic university with the Crucifix covered.
  • signed a bill to allow mentally ill homosexual perverts serve openly in the United States military.
  • fought to defend the infanticide that is partial birth abortion.
  • ordered US forces to attack a country for no discernible reason as you did with Libya.
  • attempted to force Catholic institutions to provide contraception against their religious teachings.
  • attempted to bribe anyone to drop out of Senate primary races as you did with Joe Sestak and Andrew Romanoff.
  • gone to another country and called America "arrogant and dismissive".
  • bowed to a foreign monarch while acting in an official capacity.
  • speak ill of our troops while they're fighting in Afghanistan.
  • never made fun of the Special Olympics on national TV. 
  • forged a birth certificate to "prove" I'm eligible to be the President of the United States.
We could go on and on, but I'm getting sick to my stomach just thinking about the last four, horrible years.

See, Barry, We the People are waaay better than you. We the People (or at least the majority of us) run our lives in an ethical and moral way. We don't go around attempting to create class warfare or racial division like you do. (In fact, the vast majority of us don't think about race or class at all.) We don't don't try to silence those with whom we don't agree with like you do. We don't take money from a Nazi collaborator or crooked unions, either.

We the People don't need to do any "soul-searching". It's YOU needs to do crap loads of "soul-searching". A hundred years from now, when the history books are written, you're going down as the most morally bankrupt president this country has ever had. (You even make Bill Caligula look like a choir boy, and that's saying quite a bit.) Never has there been a more scandal ridden presidency in US history. Can't blame that on Bush. Can't blame the Republicans for that. You did it to yourself.

Do us all a favor, Barry. This is very personal and straight from the heart. This is something that someone should have told you DECADES ago, instead of telling you how brilliant and special you are. Please forgive my crassness, but this has been a long time coming:

SHUT THE FUCK UP ALREADY!!

"He Was The Governor Of A Bright Blue State! What Do You Expect ?!"

Every time I decide to waste my valuable time on God's green and cooling Earth talking to a Mittiot (A rabid follower of former Taxachusetts governor Mitt Trotsky),  the following intellectually dishonest and lazy argument always comes up, especially when discussing Romneycare(less).


"He was the governor of a bright blue state! What do you expect ?!"


To me, the above statement is just as annoying as hearing a Paultard whine "Ron Paul is the only...." or "Only Dr. Paul....". It's like Wolverine's claws on Glenn Beck's chalkboard. Use of a statement like that shows that person using it is utterly incapable of doing any deep thinking. (Yes, Ann Coulter and Matt Drudge, that means you, too.)


See ladies and gentlemen, being a Conservative is not just talking the talk, it's also, more importantly, about walking the walk. It doesn't do anyone any good to give a speech at CPAC and call yourself "severely Conservative". You have to live it and breathe it everyday. It has to be who you are. The values of Conservatism must guide your every action, from the mundane arguing with liberals to vetoing a piece of legislation like Romneycare(less).

A true Conservative would have vetoed Romneycare(less) without giving it a second thought. A true Conservative wouldn't have given a damn about being re-elected or what the slobs in the arrogant and lazy media thought or said. Principles must come first. In other words, one must do their best Ronald Reagan or Scott Walker imitation at all times, especially if elected to office.

Another reason why the "He was the governor of a bright blue state! What do you expect ?!" statement should make you grind your teeth is the fact that it blatantly admits that Mitt Trotsky is not a fighter. Oh sure, he'll team up with Jew hater Ron Paul and viciously tear into Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum, (The media hates them anyway.) but will he do that to the popular with the media Chairman Obama ? Will he fight if he loses the Senate and the House two years into his term, as many first term Presidents do ? Will he go ahead and repeal Obamacare(less) with Katie Couric interviewing the folks it supposedly helped ?


"He was the governor of a bright blue state! What do you expect ?!"

A Conservative. Nothing else is acceptable.

A "Tribute" To Government Run Healthcare

In honor of the second anniversary of the bloated leviathan known as Obamacare(less) and its grandpa, Mitt Trotsky, I've decided to put together a little tribute to government-run healthcare. Without further ado:


***********************************

"CROW AGENCY, Mont. - Ta'Shon Rain Little Light, a happy little girl who loved to dance and dress up in traditional American Indian clothes, had stopped eating and walking. She complained constantly to her mother that her stomach hurt.

When Stephanie Little Light took her daughter to the Indian Health Service clinic in this wind-swept and remote corner of Montana, they told her the 5-year-old was depressed.

Ta'Shon's pain rapidly worsened and she visited the clinic about 10 more times over several months, before her lung collapsed and she was airlifted to a children's hospital in Denver. There she was diagnosed with terminal cancer, confirming the suspicions of family members.

A few weeks later, a charity sent the whole family to Disney World so Ta'Shon could see Cinderella's Castle. She never got to see the castle, though. She died in her hotel bed soon after the family arrived in Florida."


http://www.gazette.com/articles/health-56520-indian-care.html#ixzz1q5m7e0w3


***********************************

You'll never guess who runs Indian Health Services. C'mon, take a guess. I'll give you a hint: It's really, really big. It robs you every payday. It robs you every April 15th. It builds bridges to nowhere and fish ladders. Yep, that's right, our Overlord,  the federal government, runs Indian Health Services.

Ta'Shon's story isn't unique. In fact:

***********************************

"On some reservations, the oft-quoted refrain is, 'don't get sick after June,'  when the federal dollars run out. It's a sick joke, and a sad one because it is sometimes true. Officials say they have about half of what they need to operate, and patients know they must be dying or about to lose a limb to get serious care.

Wealthier tribes can supplement the federal health service budget with their own dollars. But poorer tribes, often those on the most remote reservations, far away from city hospitals, are stuck with grossly substandard care. The agency itself describes a 'rationed health care system.'

The sad fact is an old fact. The U.S. has an obligation, based on a 1787 agreement between tribes and the government, to provide American Indians with free health care on reservations. But that promise has not been kept. About one-third more is spent per capita on health care for felons in federal prison, according to 2005 data from the health service."


http://www.gazette.com/articles/health-56520-indian-care.html#ixzz1q5twPS6z


***********************************

Then, there's the Veterans Administration that takes care of the brave men and women who have sacrificed life and limb to keep us free:

***********************************

"The VA sent letters to more than 3,000 veterans who had colonoscopies at the Miami VA hospital informing them that improperly cleaned equipment might have exposed them to hepatitis B, hepatitis C and HIV. Similar problems arose at VA hospitals in Tennessee and Georgia with more than 11,000 veterans potentially exposed to the unsanitary equipment.

The 74 patients should have been included when about 2,400 former Miami VA patients were notified in March 2009 to get tests for HIV, hepatitis and other infections.

At least two Miami patients have already been reported to have contracted HIV after having a colonoscopy at the Miami VA hospital."


http://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/Hospital-Administrators-Deserve-discipline-VA-Board.html


***********************************


Now, to be fair to the Federal Regime in DC, there have been some successful attempts at running health care programs. There are some who get the best possible care that money can buy. For example, our CONgress Critters and other useless bureaucrats are well taken care of:


***********************************

"Like other large employers, the government pays a large share of the cost of coverage. On average, the government pays 72 percent of the premiums for its workers, up to a maximum of 75 percent depending on the policy chosen. For example, the popular Blue Cross and Blue Shield standard fee-for-service family plan carries a total premium of $1,120.47 per month, of which the beneficiary pays $356.59. Washington, D.C.-based employees who prefer an HMO option might choose the Kaiser standard family plan. It carries a total premium of $629.46 per month, of which the employee pays only $157.36. [Do you pay $157.36 per month for your health insurance ? I'm willing to bet the answer is "No way in hell!".]

In addition, members of Congress also qualify for some medical benefits that ordinary federal workers do not. They (but not their families) are eligible to receive limited medical services from the Office of the Attending Physician of the U.S. Capitol, after payment of an annual fee ($491in 2007). But services don’t include surgery, dental care or eyeglasses, and any prescriptions must be filled at the member’s expense. [Oh, the horror!]

House and Senate members (but not their families) also are eligible to receive care at military hospitals. For outpatient care, there is no charge at the Washington, D.C., area hospitals (Walter Reed Army Medical Center and National Naval Medical Center). Inpatient care is billed at rates set by the Department of Defense."


http://www.factcheck.org/2009/08/health-care-for-members-of-congress/


***********************************


You know who else gets top notch care ? The Islamo-Nazi scumbags at Club Gitmo:


***********************************

"NAVAL STATION GUANTANAMO BAY, Cuba, Feb. 18, 2005 – In every case, enemy combatants held here receive medical care that is 'as good as or better than anything we would offer our own soldiers, sailors, airmen or Marines,' the general in charge of the U.S. detention facility here said.

Army Brig Gen. Jay Hood, commander of Joint task Force Guantanamo, said medical personnel at the detainee hospital here have helped detainees recover from 'some very significant war wounds.' [Just like the VA hospitals that gave our veterans hepatitis and HIV, huh ?]

Active-duty U.S. Navy medical personnel care for detainees as both inpatients and outpatients from a dedicated facility at Camp Delta, the main detainee- holding facility here. Most routine medical care is administered by corpsmen who visit each cellblock every two days or whenever a detainee requests care. [Perhaps Ta'Shon would have gotten some attention if she wanted to enslave us to Shariah law.]

More serious health concerns among detainees are treated at the small, state- of-the-art medical facility dedicated to their care. A senior administrator at the facility called it 'equivalent to a community acute-care hospital.'
 
The facility is equipped with 19 inpatient beds (and can expand to 28), a physical-therapy area, pharmacy, radiology department, central sterilization area, and a single-bed operating room. More complex surgeries can be performed at the base naval hospital, which also is equipped with an intensive-care wing."

Yep, government run healthcare....It's to die for!

Artsem, Anyone ?

  
When liberals hiss and scratch at Conservatives in defense of their favorite perversions, the phrase "I don't want the government in my bedroom" always seems to rear its ugly head, often backed up by another bumper sticker sentiment, "Speak truth to power." After this intellectual vomit is spewed, the lib usually thinks it won the debate and goosesteps to the nearest bong.


The funny thing about the above is this: the lib has it all wrong. They shouldn't be screaming those catch phrases to the heavens, Conservatives should. After all, it's the Authoritarian Left that wants government in the bedroom and, more often than not, it's the Left that's the power, regardless of election results or the consent of the governed. Nothing proves my point more than recent attempt by the Obama Regime to force Catholic institutions to pay for contraception, AKA the Obamacareless Rubber Mandate.


When you get past the fact that the Obamacareless Rubber Mandate is a vicious persecution of Catholics and one of the most blatant violations of the First Amendment in recent memory, the Big Government Willies set in. The fascists in the Regime are no longer content in just telling us what lightbulbs to use or how much water per flush your toilet is allowed to use, now they're involving themselves in our sex lives. I don't know about you, but I don't want or need a deviant homosexual like Bawney Fwank to have any say in my sex life, nor do I want the grotesque leviathan known as Barbara Mikuluski to have any say in it, either. I'm willing to bet, Dear Reader, that you're in the same boat.


Another thing to fear about this situation is the fact that the federal government, like alcoholics who let young girls drown to save their career in the Imperial Senate, don't know when to say when. A tsunami of regulations and utter nonsense is headed our way. Soon, we'll be hearing from HHS on what positions we should use and how often we should get frisky. Millions will thrown away on funding condom recycling studies at Berkley. Maybe Sandra Fluke will become the Slut Czar. (Assuming she gets out college by age 60, of course.)


Or perhaps, we'll get this:


***********************************


"The aim of the Party was not merely to prevent men and women from forming loyalties which it might not be able to control. Its real, undeclared purpose was to remove all pleasure from the sexual act. Not love so much as eroticism was the enemy, inside marriage as well as outside it. All marriages between Party members had to be approved by a committee appointed for the purpose, and – though the principle was never clearly stated – permission was always refused if the couple concerned gave the impression of being physically attracted to one another. The only recognized purpose of marriage was to beget children for the service of the Party. Sexual intercourse was to be looked on as a slightly disgusting minor operation, like having an enema. This again was never put into plain words, but in an indirect way it was rubbed into every Party member from childhood onwards. There were even organizations such as the Junior, Anti-Sex League, which advocated complete celibacy for both sexes. All children were to be begotten by artificial insemination (artsem, it was called in Newspeak) and brought up in public institutions. This, Winston was aware, was not meant altogether seriously, but somehow it fitted in with the general ideology of the Party. The Party was trying to kill the sex instinct, or, if it could not be killed, then to distort it and dirty it. He did not know why this was so, but it seemed natural that it should be so. And as far as the women were concerned, the Party's efforts were largely successful." ---George Orwell, 1984

Chairman Obama's War On Religion And The Individual

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;......"


***********************************

For those of you who were educationally abused in our sham of a public school system, the above is the Estabishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause of the First Amendment . It is one of the most important thoughts ever recorded in human history. This tiny little sentence fragment of a mere sixteen words makes America....well, American.


See, ladies and gentlemen, the Establishment and Free Exercise Clauses do more than protect religion from the intrigues of government, regardless of what the commies at the ACLU would have you believe. The Establishment and Free Exercise Clauses protect the individual's right to think for himself, since following a religion is the most personal (and important) decision an individual will ever make in his lifetime.


Chairman Obama's recent attempt to force the Catholic Church to pay for contraception is more than a malicious, bigoted attack on religion. (Which is horrying in itself, might I add.) It is an attack on the individual spirit. It is using the power of the State to impose its own warped version of morality onto the individual, which is a tactic of choice for genocidal maniacs the world over. Lenin did it, Hitler did it, Stalin did it, and Mao did it. Millions died horrible deaths because they did.


And now, our President Barack Hussein Obama, is attepting to do it.


This cannot stand. If you have the least bit of a desire for freedom, you must oppose this. I don't care if you're Catholic or Protestant. It doesn't really matter if you're a Jew of the Sephardim or Ashkenazim variety, or whether or not you're Greek Orthodox, (No, I didn't forget a certain religion. It's the only one The Regime finds acceptable, and is therefore safe.) you must fight this or any other version CONgress comes up with with every fiber of your being.

The right of you to be you is at stake.

Mitt Trotsky

Recently, "Republican" presidential wanna-be Mitt Romney had this to say to the Communist News Network's Soledad O'Brien:



************************************

"And, by the way, I’m in this race because I care about Americans. I’m not concerned about the very poor; we have a safety net there. If it needs repair, I’ll fix it. I’m not concerned about the very rich; they’re doing just fine. I’m concerned about the very heart of America, the 90-95 percent of Americans who right now are struggling."

http://www.mediaite.com/tv/mitt-romney-to-soledad-obrien-im-not-concerned-about-the-very-poor/


***********************************

Now, of course, the arrogant and lazy media focused on the " I’m not concerned about the very poor; we have a safety net there" part. Keith Olbermann wet himself in defiance. An outraged Rachel Maddcow got her udders in a knot. Chrissy Matthews got blitzed. Needless to say, the arrogant and lazy media acted as if Romney was......well, a Conservative Republican.

And, once again, the arrogant and lazy media lost the plot. Mitt Trotsky is NOT a Conservative. Mitt Trotsky is a NOT a Republican. Mitt Trotsky is a collectivist, just like media's hero Chairman Obama. Let's focus on the part where Mitt gives himself away: ".... we have a safety net there. If it needs repair, I’ll fix it....".

Okay, I'll bite. How will the Mittster go about fixing the safety hammock ?

Will Mitt Trotsky:

  • raise taxes and redistribute wealth ? Will he pretend that "from each according to his abilities to each according to his need" is in the Constitution like Chairman Obama does ?
  • have the Federal Reserve print up a big ol' batch of funny money ?
  • borrow more money from our Chinese overlords ?

Given Mitt Trotsky's past, with Romneycare and his "independent progressive" phase, these questions should be asked, if not by me, at least by the "Conservatives" who follow him like Ann Coulter and Matt Drudge. Well Ann ? Matt ? Speak up, please. I can't hear you over the crickets....Matt ? Ann ? Comments ? How about you, Krispy Kreme Christie ? (H/T Mark Levin) Can you put down that cannolli long enough to answer ? Buehler..... Buehler....Anyone ? Anyone ?

Ladies and gentlemen, the bottom line is this: The United States is on the edge of economic and political disaster. The only thing that will save the country is the "In Your Face" Conservatism of Ronald Reagan. We the People don't need a "managed decay", to paraphrase Newt Gingrich. We need a solution.

That solution sure as hell ain't Mitt Trotsky.
