Benjamin Netanyahu's Independence Day Greetings
— Dave in Texas

Two world changing ideas, first, "that people should have the right to choose their own leaders, and be sovereign over their own destiny", and second "that the power of those leaders, the power of government must be checked, so that individual rights will be protected."

Amen.

Happy Independence Day you goofballs.

Barry Hussein Soetoro Obama Jones gets it, he just rejects the premise.

 

He rejects the premise for a lot of superficial reasons such as "social justice", "spreading the wealth around", "philosophical de-construction of the ruling white power paradigm" and "not enough cow bell".  But basically it is the same reason all these guys do this.

 

It's for power. Unrestrained power, so that their big egos can run rampant over anyone and anything.  There is no principle, no deep though, no logical reasoning here, despite all the mental masturbation that various academics put into this.

 

It's about power for Barry, pure and simple.  He's an embryonic tyrant, restrained only by what he judges are the bitter clingers belief in some kind of restraint.  Give him enough time (or who ever succeeds him) and the tyranny will be complete, the Constitution will be completely eviscerated, and we will have a Total Democracy, a total rule of the mob.

President Kardashian. A superficial twit with delusions of godhood. Pass the Brawndo.

How to Celebrate the 4th of July

A snippet:
The Declaration is not only about principles; it also describes institutions, the kind of institutions best adapted to protect the rights of a people. These institutions are expressed in the middle section of the document, the section in which the specific crimes and injustices of the king of England are described. The three broad constitutional principles that he violated form the backbone of the later Constitution of the United States. The first step in understanding that Constitution is not to learn its details, although they are relatively few. The first step is to understand the grand arrangements of government necessary to constitutional rule.

Happy Independence Day to you too, DiT.

 

I really like Bebe's vid. He brings up a point that  we are all aware of, but never gets  addressed too much: the will of the majority.

 

Our democratic republic was set up so that all may enjoy freedom, but the Prog/Coms that currently infest Washington have turned a blind eye and deaf ear to the wishes  of the majority of Americans.  What is clearly best (and has proven itself to work in the  past)  is not a part of today's political dialogue,  except as part of the denigration of conservatism by the minority.

 

We are currently ruled  by the minority. What the overwhelming majority of us want is  irrelevant  to these elitists. We really don't want much: a robust economy with true upward mobility, personal and national security, and a voice in Washington with which to guide  our country  towards  what is best for all of us.

 

I sincerely hope that this will be the last 4th that we have to suffer under this domestic tyranny by the minority. If the events of recent weeks don't awaken the  country to  the mistake of Obama and  Progressivism, nothing will, IMO.

 

I wish all of y'all a happy and prosperous Fourth of July.

31 Two people can keep each other
sane, can give support, conviction,
love, massage, hope, sex.
Three people are a delegation,
a committee, a wedge. With four
you can play bridge and start
an organization. With six
you can rent a whole house,
eat pie for dinner with no
seconds, and hold a fund raising party.
A dozen makes a demonstration.
A hundred fill a hall.
A thousand have solidarity and your own newsletter;
ten thousand, power and your own paper;
a hundred thousand, your own media;
ten million, your own country.

And 35 years ago today, July 4th 1976, Israel flew 2,200 miles in secret to rescue 260 passengers from the hijacked plane at Entebbe Uganda. Killed in that raid on the 200th Birthday of the United States of America was Yonatan Netanyahu, brother of the Present Prime Minister. Coincidence? I think not.

42 @22.  Bah. I have seen your "majority" and it is a great raging beast.
The reason for having a constitutional republic is so that the individual or the minority will still retain life, property, and rights when the whim of the majority changes. May God deliver us from "majority rule."

Benjamin Netanyahu is campaigning to America over the heads, as it were, of the Executive and the Make Believe Media.

His motive is the preservation of the State of Israel. His means is to try to connect with Americans of similar view, that there are things worth struggling for, and maybe, perhaps requiring that "last full measure of devotion".

 

We Americans are now in the most profound existential struggle to maintain our Republic in decades, at least. There may be no turning back after this. But Israel is looking into the maw of annihilation, from Iranian nukes that may or may not exist, now or in the very near future.

The enemy, as always, is the minds of men that embrace tyranny.  Whether is the mullahs of Iran, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi or Barack Obama, the common thread is that tyranny is required.  Why tyranny?  Why - because we say so, that's why. 

Tyranny has had a multiple of rationalizations (communism, fascism, the divine right of kings, the New York Times editorial page, whatever)  through the centuries, but is always boils down to the egotism of the tyrants, and their need to rule absolutely.  They respect no power other than their own, and there is no idea that cannot be trampled to advance their own egos.  And then there are the fawning sycophants that wish to have the bread crumbs from the tyrant in return for the slavish idolatry. Again, see the editorial pages of the NY Times.

The lust for power is a jealous master, and the rise of tyrannies portends the world set on fire from war. Oceania has always been at war with East Asia.

 

Freedom, liberty and justice for all are the surest antidotes for war, cruelty and conquest.  Perhaps someone should have interrupted Obama's Marxist mentorings from Frank Davis to impress that on him.

By British law at the time not only was it "unconstitutional", it was also high treason. If any of the signers had been caught by the British they would have drawn, hanged, and quartered.

52 U.S. veterans looking for jobs have a new employment opportunity -- in Canada, working on that country’s section of the Keystone XL Pipeline. Though the push to start building the Canada-to-Texas oil route has been delayed in the United States amid political and environmental disputes, the Veterans of Foreign Wars is part of a deal that would send veterans and active-duty soldiers across the border to fill as many as 114,000 skilled-labor jobs. The jobs include work on the crude-oil pipeline as well as work on infrastructure and even skyscrapers. The deal is being negotiated by the Edmonton Economic Development Corp. and VetJobs, a job-placement company in which the VFW has a stake. VetJobs CEO Ted Daywalt said Tuesday he “jumped at the opportunity” to send workers across the border. “I want to get the best jobs for veterans. If that means going to Canada, we will,” he said. “And it’s a lot safer than Iraq.” Daywalt said he was “very upset” about delays on the U.S. section of the 1,700-mile-long pipeline, which nixed corporate commitments he had secured to hire 8,000 veterans. He hopes veterans can now find gainful employment in Canada. One helleva a comment on what obama is doing for American Jobs and what he really thinks about the Military and Vets

62 Some lawmakers picked Independence Day eve to call on the House to pass a bill that would require the government to purchase flags made in the U.S.A. The Senate-approved All-American Flag Act was introduced in response to the $3.6 million in imports of U.S. flags, mostly from China, The Los Angeles Times reports. The bill would require the federal government to purchase only flags made entirely from domestic content. 'It's time for the House to act.' - Rep. Bruce Braley (D-Iowa) It is unclear why the bill has not come up for a vote in the House, which approved the measure in 2010, according to the paper. The bill never came before the Senate before the session ended. "We should do all we can to support American manufacturing and job creation, especially when it comes to our most treasured of patriotic symbols — the American flag," said Sen. Sherrod Brown, a Democrat whose state of Ohio is home to U.S. flag makers and who is one of the bill’s sponsors. Rep. Bruce Braley (D-Iowa), the House’s bill’s chief sponsor, said in a statement, "It's time for the House to act." U.S. flag imports were valued at $3.6 million last year, with $3.3 million coming from China, the paper reports, citing the Census Bureau.

I don't consider this an issue of right or wrong. This, like many preferences or tastes, are particular truths. Universal truths are where we can argue, but in this case, I'm just chalking it up to preferences.

As you said, it moved you and made me want to puke. However, my statement is no indicator of anything other than preference, and no indicator of your moral fiber!

Further, I didn't mean to imply you were stupid or wrong. Enjoy away, just don't ask me to read it aloud at the moron meetups

90 Great day to reflect on the wonderful George Bush (DUB YA).  He gave us No Child Left Behind.  Increased the cost of Medicare.  The dreadful war in Iraq.  A war in Afghanistan with no war plan.  We are still there.  Was this war part of Bush's Occupy Afghanistan Strategy.  He had no balls to call Congress on Fannie and Freddie (to busy cutting brush).  Let's not forget how he shit in his pants duting the financial crisis and some of the idiotic things he said.  Because of him we now have Obama.  Americans hated Bush so much they gave the dems 60 votes in the Senate.  It would have been better if Gore had defeated him.  We would have recovered in 2004 and actually elected a conservative.  Last - but not least - he gave us John ( hey I'm queer) Roberts.  George and John are loved by E. J. Dionne.

French voters get a wake-up call via harsh message on national finances

If French voters thought they were winning themselves a reprieve from tough medicine by defeating Nicolas Sarkozy and replacing him with the socialist Francois Hollande, they got a rude awakening on Monday.

Didier Migaud, head of the Cour des Compes, warned that the national economy is bordering on disaster and will “require both an unprecedented curb on public expenditure and an increase in taxes.”

131 A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. The traitor is the plague. To be ignorant of what happened before you were born... is to live the life of a child for ever. The recovery of freedom is so splendid a thing that we must not shun even death when seeking to recover it.

Speaking of education, I was talking with my step-dad this morning. (Mom and step-dad saw what Obama was from the beginning, btw.)  Among the many things we discussed: a report he had seen on TV about textbooks.  The upshot: kids are being taught about 9/11, but without two pertinent facts--that the hijackers were Muslims and that they were perpetrating jihad. Al Qaeda gets mentioned but without the religious context.

On Independence Day,  two guys and a union worker went   fishing on a lake.  Suddenly,   Jesus walked across the water and joined them in the boat.  When the three astonished men had settled down enough to speak, the first guy asked humbly, "Jesus, I've suffered from back pain ever since I took   IED  shrapnel in the   Afghan   war...could you help me?"

"Of course, my son", Jesus said.  When Jesus   touched the man's back, the man felt relief for the first time in years.

 

The second man, who wore very thick glasses and had a hard time reading and driving, asked if Jesus could do anything about his eyesight.  Jesus smiled, removed the man's glasses and tossed them in the lake. When they hit the water, the man's eyes cleared and he could see everything  perfectly.

 

Jesus  then  turned to heal the union worker,  but the guy put his hands up and cried defensively, "Don't touch me! I'm on long term disability!!"

166 France's new commie president Hollande tells the serfs who voted for him that you know SURPRISE, the books suck and they're not getting a new load of freebies

Well, if we've got to have democracy, the one hope we get is that the commie liars who inevitably get elected lie about being commies.

168 "Funny that the Prime Minister of Israel believes in American Exceptionalism and our own President does not?"

He understands because he lived here for a while.

169 Sounds like he said we are being run by a bunch of Stuttering Clusterf*cks and Miserable Failures...or maybe we should just not trust whomever is in charge, because they are all SCFOMFs.

Happy Fourth All.

I was surfing around various websites and Twitchy. I'm guessing I shouldn't be by now but I was surprised at all the haters (American citizens) that come out of the wooodwork on days like 4July to spew negative, shortsighted bullshit. Having spent time in a few third-world paradises, my conviction that the USA is the most amazing most awesome country in the world has become hardened. To all the haters, suck it you thankless bastards. To the haters of foreign origin, y'all can suck it too.
