BENIGN NEGLECT, LONG OVERDUE
By 1965, the Civil Rights Movement had morphed into a sexual revolution with its attendant drug culture. The poor urban black family was speeding towards hell in a hand basket on greased wheels. Warning signs , red flags, like blinking neon lights were everywhere, signaling danger. All were ignored. Early intervention, might have made a difference when salvage of the poor black family and their community was still possible. Twice ( first in 1965, ) the senior New York Senator, Daniel P. Moynihan, now deceased, made a report, based on research done as assistant secretary of labor for the U.S. Department of Labor. It was originally titled The Negro Family : The Case for National Action . Senator Moynihan, realizing the depth of the disintegration of the black family was concerned and advocated a period of " Benign Neglect " a suggestion that the black family might be better off if the " do-gooders " just left them alone, at least for awhile. There was another period in history when a similar suggestion was made. After Emancipation, at the beginning of Reconstruction and the " do-gooders " Freedom Bureau, two voices - Frederick Douglas and Booker T. Washington - also sounded a similar alarm. Like Moynihan, the unheeded advice met with howls of protests - then ignored - by the early politically Correct, groups with vested interests and their own black intellectual, W.E.B. DuBois. The alarms raised only unleashed a storm of protests ( then, and now ) from Politically Correct Liberals, Black intellectuals and the Civil Rights Establishment that hurled charges of racism and other invectives - Moynihan never completely recovered, politically, from the onslaught .
The indignant howls of protest at the mere suggestion of " Benign Neglect ", to access and possibly correct the dismal conditions, were reverberating almost before the ink dried on the document. Moynihan further argued that the rise in single-mother families was not due to lack of jobs but rather to a destructive vein in ghetto culture... To describe the underclass behavior that characterized the ghetto, he coined the phrase ' tangle of pathology ' . This included delinquency, joblessness, school failure, crime, and fatherlessness. Two generations - and counting - of lost black ghetto youth - stand as not so mute testimony to the tragic truth of Moynihan's report and the refusal to even consider the advocated, much needed period of " BENIGN NEGLECT !
But, it not only was protested, condemned and ignored, but the usual suspects massed and waged a most vicious race and class warfare in a futile attempt to hide two basic, undeniable truths, too painful to accept : ( 1 ). Entrenched, multigenerational poverty was largely black ( 2 ) It was intricately intertwined with the collapse of the nuclear family in the inner cities. Kay S. Hymowitz, writing The Black Family : 40 Years of LIves. vindicated Senator Moynihan's earlier study. She found more blacks out of work in 1964, than in 1954. Urban rioting made the problems in the northern ghettos more intractable than discrimination [ had made ] in the South. Someone should have asked why, but did not ! Even today, it is still the northern urban centers, dominated by Democratic Party politics shielded by black plantation gatekeepers that continue to deteriorate. These communities are the most dysfunctional and crime-ridden. However, Black intellectuals, Civil Rights Establishment, Academics, Politicians, Pundits, Poverty Pimps and the Politically Correct do not want this known. They have no way to deal with a problem, originally, deliberately created. Then, too, they can not, will not, admit the ideology they have bought into, heart and soul, has never, will never work.
Even more concerned about the rapid deterioration of the black family and community, Moynihan sounded the alarm again in his book, Maximum Feasible Misunderstanding., published in 1970, Moynihan's report went on to point out the following empirical facts, that between 1967 and 1969, 72% of black ghetto families received Aid to Families With Dependent Children before age 18. School dropout rates, delinquency and crime among other dysfunctional behaviors were rising in the cities ( crime became chic among the elite ) - entrenching an underclass, heralding generations of community pathology and destruction ( they never realized the neighborhood being burned down was their own ), from which, too many have never been able to recover. Aaron Wildavsky's narrative poem, A RECIPE FOR VIOLENCE, included in Maximum Feasible Misunderstanding , summed the effect of " War On Poverty ", Promise a lot, deliver a little. Lead people to believe they will be much better off, but let there be no dramatic improvement.... Try a variety of small programs... avoid any attempted solution... Have middle-class civil servants hire upper-class student radicals to use lower-class Negroes as a battering ram... Go in for a little force, just enough to anger, not enough to discourage.... Alternate with a little suppression. Mix well, apply a match, and run.
By 1980, out-of-wedlock births = 56% in ghetto. At first glance, mostly on the surface, so-called black community involvement and leadership seemed to be on the rise. This seemed a good thing. Time, and a closer examination of facts, carefully hidden and/or glossed over - Community Action Programs were all very carefully managed and controlled - glowing achievements / accolades were a mirage. Liberal advocates, refused to acknowledge the possibility, their social experiments were failing and making a bad situation worse. The politically correct left dodged this blatant truth as the black family collapse escalated. Marian Edelman's Children's Defense Fund - generic term + money, equaled a host of funded services - prenatal care, day care, housing subsidies, all in the name of children's developmental needs that added to and hastened the destruction of the poor black family. This boon doggle was another of Jimmy Carter's wrong-headed contributions to the Civil Rights epic hoax debacle.
As time has - tragically - shown, Senator Moynihan was right. The Politically Correct Left Wing Democrats and their black shields were wrong, as usual. Bumper- sticker slogans, blaming the victim, self-esteem, b.s. and out-of-wedlock childbearing, were the euphemisms hiding the truth about the ongoing devastation. Trillions of dollars spent in Manpower Programs to educate and provide job training for the disadvantaged were scams and abject failures.
In pushing their sexual revolution and enjoying their new found drug culture, the politically correct doomed poor black families. They encouraged promiscuity, abortion on demand, pushed irresponsibility ' via , if it feels good do it , philosophy. ' Thus the monumental loss of society's mores entwined in a variety of systems - family, cultural, economic that normally passes to generations through parental guidance was loss as reflected in the absence of :
a). Families shaping children's character and ability, leading to upward mobility b.) Role modeling - adult conduct in society is learned as a child c). Disorganized homes : school drop-outs / do not work, lives on welfare / lawlessness, excused d). Pregnancy drift into / multiple times / fathers - girls see babies almost like dolls to be played with e). Ghetto families raise generations of children unable to grasp life opportunities At the time of the BENIGN NEGLECT admonishments, the only serious considerations and voiced alarms came from conservatives - Charles Murray, Lawrence Mead and Thomas Sowell : welfare policies were blamed for the dysfunction. They advocated a change in behavior and admonished, DO NOT WAIT FOR WASHINGTON TO END POVERTY. Unfortunately, no one listened. The politically Correct Liberal, left-leaning mass media ignored or glossed over the tragedy unfolding, but, trumpeted the " make believe ' wonder improvements that were not happening. Today, some 40 years later, the dismal failure of the so-called Civil Rights Movement ( hi-jacked to become a hoax ) and trillions of wasted " War On Poverty " ( became a multi-billion dollar industry ) dollars stand as glaring, jarring - not mute - testimony to the tragic consequences of the elite liberals politically correct totalitarian agenda.
In the 2000 US Census, it was reported the Hispanics had supplanted blacks as America's largest minority. The Democrats wasted no time planning to replace their 99% faithful, democrat, voting black constituents with the Hispanic new minority majority. The Politically Correct Left Wing Democrats allegedly budgeted $57,000,000.00 for their 2004, " get-out-the-vote " . Their long-suffering, totally dependable, but expendable, ( Jewish Weekly Review columnist coined the term AVM - automatic voting machines ) always faithful, got what Donna Brazile called " drive by campaigning ". No Democrat of worth bothered to visit the black communities - until there was a ' hint ' of trouble. THEN, they hurriedly filled the church pulpits, community / recreation center meeting rooms and neighborhood walkabouts. The Democrats will not be as successful in destroying the Hispanic family and community, as they were in the destruction of the black family.
Today, for the poor hispanic minorities, targeted for destruction by the politically correct Democrats there is a ray of hope. Herman Badillo, a Hispanic, is sounding an alarm, similar to Senator Moynihan's '1965 alarm. Noting the rapid deterioration of the black family resulting from the PC ' social experiments ' in a way, has called for a period of " Benign Neglect ". Except, this time the response will probably be much different. Herman Badillo's newly released book, ONE NATION, ONE STANDARD : AN EX LIBERAL ON HOW HISPANICS CAN SUCCEED JUST LIKE OTHER IMMIGRANT GROUPS, is written by one who can honestly say " been there, done that, PC agenda really does not work ". He was a witness to the ' liberal ' destruction of the black family, aided and abetted by black leaders at the behest of the Politically Correct Limousine Liberals. As a Hispanic, he sees the urban Hispanic family on the same road to ruin - irreversible ruin . He he is determined to make certain that does not happen to his ethnic group. With this as his objective, he has spoken out in his new publication. And, as in 1965, those with a vested interest in the status quo are protesting loud and long, charges of traitor are being hurled. But, in the end, the Hispanic community will read, discuss and and most likely, take corrective measures.
The Hispanic family/community is more cohesive. Their Indian ancestry does not have the tribal conflict and slave history that African descendants had. The Indian often chose death, rather than a life of enslavement. There are many different ethnic groups within the Hispanics. Only the poor Puerto Rican has been conditioned to feel entitled to the success of others and exhibit the habits and behaviors similar to the poor black American. The Hispanic political leadership ( has been ) less corrupt and less willing to sell / eat their young for a dime and dubious prestige. And, now, their savior, an ex-democratic liberal, Herman Badillo has stepped up, spoken out. Invectives are flying fast, furious and very loud. He's being accused of self-hatred / selling out, and called a traitor among other things. But, his voice has a much better chance of being heard in 2007, than Moynihan had in 1965. The Politically Correct Democrats may have to re-think their plans of replacing blacks - their blessings in disguise - with Puerto Ricans.
HERMAN BADILLO's book makes the following important points as he : Points the finger of blame at parents for accepting poor academic performance - never-ending bilingual programs. Insists all must take responsibility for not getting involved w/educational system. Schools and special interest groups have been allowed to usurp parents authority and responsibility. Demands a stop to finding excuses to justify children's non performance. Be a parent, not a buddy Sees refusal to learn English language, poverty and discrimination as impediment to educational / financial progress and an invitation to be forever relegated to the bottom rung of society's ladder..
When the Politically Correct Left Wing Democrats hi-jacked the 60's Civil Rights Movement and replaced it with the sexual revolution, they attempted the destruction of America. Reviewing the history of Political Correctness and the destruction and pure evil left in its wake, makes most believers in the reality of SATAN. The PC continue to try to replace the good the world has known with evil. For the PC dysfunction became psychotic; passing thoughts became obsessions; seduction and rape, a rite of passage; treason, a means to an end -the total annihilation of America as a beacon of hope to the world's depressed looking for an opportunity to make a better life for self, children and generations to come. THESE ARE THE MISSING ELEMENTS IN THE GHETTO

HILLARY'S MANY FACES ... CONTINUED
On Saturday, January 20, 2007, in her Washington Townhouse, seated on rose splashed, covered, chinz sofa, attired in warm, earthy tones, soft breeze, gently ruffling the curtains, framing her, in a carefully staged photo - she must, by all means appear homey, rural. Goal being to depict a warm, caring homebody, (an effect carefully crafted, designed by ' well-paid ' political consultants and PR hired guns ). The words " I'm In " and the " Internet " medium, selected, no doubt, after many focus group try-outs. The objective ? To hide her hard metallic veneer and reach the greatest number of " grassroots ". After all, everybody who is anybody surfs the internet. This phony staged " 08, campaign launching " very reminiscent of that July 8, 1999, morning in Pindar Corners upstate hayfield where she launched her ' New York listening (run) tour ' for the senate seat being vacated by the venerable, esteemed New York Senator, Daniel P. Moynihan. Hillary Clinton is not warm and approachable. She's cold and calculating. On July 8, 1999, hundreds of reporters, cameramen and photographers, ( a full-blooded media feeding frenzy ) appeared, right on cue. First Lady of the United States, or FLOTUS, as she was known to the Secret Service,was about to launch her campaign from a hayfield at Pindars Corners in Delaware Count- owned by THE Sen. Daniel P. Moynihan. Meant to be, ' innocent appearing ' for a few brief hours of media attention and political calculation was carefully planned. It was reported, Liz Moynihan counseled, Hillary, if she was to have any chance of success she must make a strong showing upstate. She acknowledged, - in a get the bad news out front and dealt with early, political strategy ( questions on everyone's mind) Why the Senate? Why New York ? Why me ? Why she was not running in Illinois, her native state, or in Arkansas, where she had lived for years ?
A long chain of events had conspired to make that innocent ' appearing ' upstate hayfield appearance the vortex of media attention and political calculation. Hillary Rodham Clinton, and the " Clinton Political Machine " had contemplated this campaign to succeed Senator Moynihan. Becoming the first woman " President " had been her goal, long before she met Bill Clinton. In fact, as an aide on the House Panel ' 73' Watergate investigation Committee, and her work at the Children's Defense Fund in Massachusetts. True to feminist strategy - by any means necessary. Marrying Bill Clinton was a ' necessary ' means to an end. The Clintons', addicted to power and the 'leftist' agenda, were not about to leave the center of politics - New York City and Washington, DC - for some obscure small southern State ( Arkansas ) or a mid-west State ( Illinois ) the Money and the Power is in New York, fortunately, a Democratic State. Politically, it doesn't get any better than that, was the real reasons Hillary chose to make her Senatorial bid for Senator from New York, as a stepping stone to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Washington, D.C. The Moynihans, Pat and Liz , did not - reportedly - like Hillary Clinton. But, Moynihan was a good Democrat. The Clinton Political Machine was busy, so the Moynihans had to get in line and on board. First order of busy ? Convince Carl McCall, the black well-known NY politician not to run for the NY Senate. Mission accomplished ! Hillary Clinton was on her way to Pindars Corner and her homey, rural announcement, complemented by a man of stature - in New York politics, Senator Patrick P. Moynihan. Fast forward 7 years, 2007, repeat performance. She is now SENATOR, Bill is still BILL. Just a wee bit of tweaking around the edges. With the exception of dedicated Marxist, and chameleon - Hillary's two constants. Her other faces are kept carefully hidden. So, before America engages in collective, selective amnesia, Hillary Clinton's many different personnas should be examined :
Hillary Rodham Clinton, who has been running for president even before she met and married Bill Clinton, appeared in our living room ' via ' internet and television to announce she had formed an exploratory committee, to seek the presidency. Who is she kidding ? For this momentous announcement she appeared wearing her folksy - for the 2nd time in her life - face. Hillary is anything but warm, folksy. She is hard, cold, brittle, calculating and a dedicated Marxist. Hillary Clinton is the first lady of the US, who was hauled before a Grand Jury, where she lied with aplomb ! For anyone else, that would have been a felony. But, for Hillary, it was simply a means to an end. After all, she is the same Hillary that fired White House staffers who had been employed in the White House for a very long time - to bring in cronies, she could trust not to reveal the sordid activities taking place and repay political debts. This, is the same Hillary who fired travel office staff that - prior to the Clinton invasion - had always been responsible for scheduling travel for the White House to be replaced with more political cronies. To tamp down the public rage over this injustice, SHE attempted to charge them with theft, irregularities, etc., etc., The co-President went so far as to try to have them investigated by the FBI. Some of the ousted staff spent most, if not all of their life savings, in legal fees, to fight unfair, false, illegal actions of the two-for-one Presidency of Billary Clinton.
Chameleon, best and most accurately describes Hillary Clinton, depending on WHO and WHAT she wants to accomplish and whether she thinks the WHO ( people are meant to be used as needed and discarded ) can assist in her ambition to achieve the WHAT ( first woman president of the US ). Hillary is many things, warm, fuzzy, caring is not among them. The one constant is her steadfast dedication to Marxism, which she ' sometimes ' tries to hide. Her records at Yale are ( supposedly ) sealed. However, given the nature of leakage and the dedication of skilled hackers, in time they will surface and make their way into someone's BLOG.
Feminist, hard, brittle, cold, power driven - except when she married Bill Clinton - an aid in her rise to power. On the surface it would seem she suffered through the indignities of his many indiscreet womanizing escapades. Doubtful! Their marriage has reportedly, always been a power marriage - a means to an end. If you can believe what you read, the womanizing does not really bother her, Hillary is also a womanizer - only his lack of discretion. So, love had little, if anything to do with their marriage. Watching them, one gets the feeling she is repulsed by his nearness and touch. But, appearances must be kept up for the camera's and political correctness, so pecks on the cheek are endured and hand-holding is considered a necessary means to an end.
Loving wife and mother - Credit, Clinton Political Machine, when polls suggest American public might find it appealing, she appears with children by the roomful. Chelsea authenticated the marriage - though, it was written that when asked who to call in an emergency, replied " my dad, my mom is too busy. Her dad, at the time, was Governor of Arkansas. So, unless you're really into fairy tales, ignore this image.
But, do remember, Hillary has a history - as sordid as it is public - not to mention criminal ( she should be doing time in an orange jumpsuit ). The White-water deals were illegal. Hiding evidence in the private quarters of the White House, an obstruction of justice, lying to a Grand Jury, and accepting drug/ gun-running / foreign campaign contributions ( 1996, Billary Clinton re-election ) are all felonies. The only change Hillary Clinton has made is method of approach and communication medium.
The Clintons' moved into the White House with only suitcase in hand. They had nothing, no home to go to - free loaders all their public / married lives, they summered / sponged off Vernon Jordan at his summer place on Cape Cod's Martha's Vineyard. Eight years later, they own a Washington townhouse, and a house at Chapaqua, New York. It took several moving vans to get their " acquired " belongings to their new " homes ". They were now " multi-millionaires ". There is some thing very wrong with this picture.
Hopefully, Republican activists will hold their fire, give her time, allow her to be lulled into a really false sense of security - pumped up by pundits who have chosen to see her election as first woman president as inevitable - let her climb way out on the end of the proverbial limb, then, saw that sucker off. America loves the underdog! Don't let her assume that role !
Moderate, contrived, appearances and attaching her name to various legislative proposals along with John McCain, except when he thinks it works in his favor to appear conservative, and other R.I.N.O. and appearances with conservative Newt Gingrich. Hillary considers herself to be a slick politician, tack left, tack right, in the triangulation manner first proposed by once guru, now, dedicated, most ardent hater, Dick Morris. Like most limousine liberal elite, she see others as stupid, beneath her, simply to be used and discarded.
Hillary has many faces, between now and the 2008 Presidential Elections, let's make sure the American public is familiar with all of them.

Secretary of State, Condoleeza Rice DIMINISHES Senator Barbara Boxer
To feel superior to one group, first make group feel and appear inferior to itself and others. In regards to Black Americans, PC limousine liberal whites have honed this ability to a science, going back to the beginning of slavery in America. After trading rum / trinkets for Africans captured in tribal warfare, transporting them across the Atlantic Ocean in an inhumane manner, to America, and treated worse than animals. On the plantation, slaves were often ordered to get fresh mules, relieving the animals thought to be tired (?). But, the slaves worked on. To rationalize this inhumanity - who was really the savage ? - slave owners had to sell themselves a lie. Blacks were savages, a fraction of an inch above wild animals, no language - they could not understand their language - no history - African history, as most early peoples' history - was oral since there were no printing presses. The rationalizers were aided by other black slaves who became their shields and worked hard to keep their slave brethren in line and completely brainwashed - all for a chance to survive and eat a little better - with a bit more prestige, in the eyes of those being sold out.
Again, appearing as ' saviors ' during Reconstruction, Scalawags, Carpetbaggers and the usual complement of ' black shields ' moved in, took charge and transferred slaves' shackles from ankles to brains. Frederick Douglas and Booker T. Washington sounded the alarm : Frederick Douglas, who was very much opposed to the creation of the Freedom Bureau, realizing that it really was a ploy to keep the newly emancipated slave dependent. When asked, " what shall we do with the Negro ? " answered, " Do nothing " throw him against himself, let him find his own feet "; Booker T. Washington, pleaded, " Put your buckets down where you are, the wealth is in the land. " These voices raised the red flags signaling perceived danger, but, were ignored. W.E. B. DuBois, Socialist, pied piper leading the parade "up - north " to be embraced and endowed with social justice and economic equality - a utopian illusion, that turned out to be an urban plantation, locked deep within a concrete jungle. Strangely, residential segregation did not come to the South until after World War 11. Prior, Black and White Americans in the South lived side by side. Children played together until the onset of puberty. It was a cultural phenomenom. Northern whites have always abhorred closeness to the color of black skin. - Read, John Griffin's Black Like Me, - and never really wanted them physically close. Southern whites never had a problem with black closeness. They learned over generations to believe they were superior. That belief was an integral part of the South's " Peculiar Institution ".
The deliberate attempt to keep the American dependent and subordinate with the help of other black Americans who has used their less fortunate, poorly educated brethren to gain wealth and ' prestige ' has really been the " white man's burden " , not the monetary reparations con ' poverty pimps / plantation gatekeepers and race hustlers have been trying to run.
During the 1991, Senate hearings on the nomination of Clarence Thomas to the United States Supreme Court, where the politically correct, terrified at the thought of a ' conservative ' black ascending to the bench, Representative Barbara Boxer led feminist House members to the Senate Judiciary Committee to demand that Anita Hill's ' phony sexual harassment ' charges seriously - propelled her candidacy to the Senate.. Clarence Thomas' nomination to the Supreme Court and the ensuing fight resulted in the long overdue ' crack in the facade ' The international community, for the first time, got to see a black America, well educated, earned wealth, - not a single criminal heroin addict or welfare mom among them - non-beholding to the benevolence of white politically correct. The criminals, drug addicts and other non-desirable were sitting in the Senate members committee seats.
When politically correct whites see conservative black Americans, the effect is the same as Dracula seeing his reflection in a mirror adorned with crosses and garlic. It drove Dracula and drives them crazy. Now, lo and behold ! Senator Barbara Boxer encounters CONDOLEEZA RICE ! Let's do the research.
Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice Senator Barbara Boxer Born Nov. 14, 1954 Born Nov. 11, 1940 Birmingham, Alabama Brooklyn, New York Education Education Classmate Denise McNair died Graduated from Wingate High School in Sixteenth Street Baptist Church bombing.

U.S. Supreme Court .
Politically Correct, Barbara Boxer, entering politics, her most notable achievement, had to face, again a conservative, well-educated, black - a woman this time - a woman, far more learned, far more accomplished, far more qualified for positions held than Barbara Boxer could ever dream of - a black woman, far superior to the inferior mass of hateful protoplasm spewing venom at her sat, Condoleeza Rice, Secretary of State. A woman who lived and survived the Alabama bombings that killed a classmate ( the politically correct black shields, Eric Dyson, et, al, should note that, when they stupidly question her blackness ) the black woman who have leaders around the world pay homage to her position, role in government, who holds the respect and confidence of the most powerful man in the world - President George W. Bush ( 43 ). When she steps off 'her' plane, the red carpet is spread before her. It not only drives Barbara Boxer and her ilk crazy. It also diminishes her as a government official to be accorded respect, a representative of the government of the United States of America in the eyes of the International Community, a woman whose self-respect, sense of integrity and character would not allow her to stoop so low as to deliberately engage in gutter politics, because she's a SENATOR - ugh ! She is probably not intelligent enough to feel the shame, she should. She will be forever diminished.

SQUATTERS IN WASHINGTON
Joe Biden, Democratic Senator from Delaware recently threatened to cause a " Constitutional Crisis " if President Bush sent additional troops to Iraq. Senator has, in effect, become a Squatter, an occupier of space squatter does not own.The squatting Senator needs a refresher course in American Government ! America is a Republic, representative democracy. This, Joe Biden and all the other politically correct, traitorous cowards need to remember. They do not own America. Congress serves with the consent of the governed citizens. With their vote, representatives are elected and trusted to represent or speak for them ! Sometimes, listening to blowhards in Washington, D.C. and observing their, attempts to destroy America, it seems that "WE THE PEOPLE " had better get involved, pay attention, our future and our children's future depends on attentiveness and action.
" Representatives (?) " who aid and abet America's enemies - sworn to destroy America - seem to believe when the carnage comes, they will be able to watch America's destruction at a distance, from the safety of chauffeur driven, bullet proof limousines - paid for by taxes of the governed. Their only worry ? The NEXT ELECTION ! Boy when their heads are paraded in the streets on totem poles, won't they be surprised ! Middle East Terrorists love beheadings. They paid their 30 pieces of silver. Traitors' worth has ended.
Modern day squatters were loaned power that eventually came to be viewed as their right. News flash Senator Biden, America has been in Constitutional Crisis since America moved to the far left with the Presidential campaign of Senator George McGovern in the 1970's and the Politically Correct began to attempt, incrementally, to impose an ideology that has been a consummate failure, everywhere it's been tried since Karl Marx originated it.
Terrorists seduce with "largesse" often from charitable America.. Democrats seduce - low-income, poorly educated minorities with " entitlements ". Terrorists maintain allegiance at the point of a gun, and the willingness to blow up anything / anyone to simply make a point , or just on a whim / behead, randomly to drive the point home. Democrats use entitlements to foster generational dependence then brainwashing creates grateful zombies. Democrats alternate empty promises of more of the same and threat of " end of life " as you have come to know and depend on it if you don't keep us in power. The politically correct "elite" pundits and journalists play the terrorists' game, and become complicit in their propaganda. Terrorists win by simply continuing to find " soft " targets to kill - no mention or qualifier is ever voiced as to how savage and inhumane a group of killers are those who hide behind women and children. No mention is ever made about the abject terror of living with the ever presence of imminent death that the people living with terrorists must experience.
Pundits aid, abet and encourage terrorists who cannot win militarily. They hide behind and among helpless humans, bomb, run, hide !!! Rise of insurgency violence in Iraq can be traced to America's PC crowd's cheerleading. They offer tacit encouragement to terrorists to just hang on until George Bush is out of office, then, COMRADE, YOU'RE HOME FREE ! Come, bomb freedom-loving Americans either into submission or oblivion. It's Wake-Up time in America. One other reminder, Politically Correct Democrats love to chant, " Bush , leadership, miserable failure " . So let's review Democrats' failure history : JFKENNEDY : Scandal -ridden term entered America Vietnam War - America's only failure. Betrayed Cuban revolutionaries at Bay of Pigs- many trusting revolutionaries lost lives when support was withdrawn. This began the distrust of America's promises.
LBJOHNSON : Great Society / War On Poverty = creation of the Welfare State that sub-subsidized joblessness and encouraged illegitimacy. higher levels of poverty, crime and ingrained hopelessness / per capita funding increased in the billions while reading and test scores continue to get lower each year
Jimmy Carter, validated election of terrorist group Hamas; special deal with North Korean communist regime would mean nuclear-free North Korea. Marxist dictator Hugo Chavez's illegitimate election was sanctioned by Jimmy Carter. Millions of people live under tyranny, thousands died because of Carter's efforts. Carter sides with forces of evil time after time. Calling a former president "human scum,"may make some uncomfortable until one considers how many people lost lives as Carter sided with forces of evil. " But, according to WorldNetDaily it's the only description for this disgrace.
CLINTON : Al-Queda World Trade Center / USS COLE / Towers / Refused to take Osama Bin Laden when Saudi Arabia offered him Cut/ Run in Somalia / Gutted Intelligence agencies / reduction in Military / Legitimized Yasser Arafat by inviting him to White House Entered presidency in midst of economic recovery, rode its expansion through most of presidency/ left office w/economy in recession/ ethical administration : SCANDALS - charges of harassment, affairs, rape, renting of Lincoln Bedroom, TREASON Illegal foreign donations from Indonesian Lippo group, $452,000, given to the DNC; Communist China funneled money to the Clinton campaign and influenced elections in 1996 ; Military technology satellite guidance technology and enough information for communist China to modernize their nuclear arsenal; Bill - on his way out the door - pardoned fugitive criminal millionaire Marc Rich - oil deals with Iran during the hostage crisis and ties to arms smuggling. Denise Rich, wife of Marc Rich gave $1 million in contributions to the DNC, $450,000 to Bill Clinton's library fund, $70,000 to Hillary Clinton's senate campaign according to the Washington Times.
Sandy Berger, President Clinton's national security adviser, authorized as Clinton administration's representative to make sure the 9/11 Commission got the correct classified materials.removed classified documents from the National Archives, hid them under a construction trailer and later tried to find the trash collector to retrieve them. liable to the commission. This is a lie. America should ask why and demand an answer.
Delaware Republican Chairman Everett Moore criticized Sen. Joseph Biden (D-Del.) for holding a Feb. 19 campaign fund-raiser at the California home of Dr. Sadegh Namazi-khah, a strong supporter of the Tehran regime and leading pro-Iran lobbyist. Moore called on Biden to return the estimated $24,000 raised for the senator's campaign coffers.
Rep. John Murtha, anti-Iraq war Democrat,12 years ago, urged President Clinton to begin a complete pullout of U.S. troops from Mogadishu, Somalia. Murtha, like John Kerry, is immeshed in claimed " War Hero " status controversy. Murtha, unindicted Abscam co-conspirator, and John Kerry seem to have received their combat courage degree from the same correspondence school. They are both squatters.
In a 1998 interview with ABC's John Miller, Osama bin Laden said that America's withdrawal from Somalia had emboldened his burgeoning al Qaida force and encouraged him to plan new attacks. "Our people realize[d] more than before that the American soldier is a paper tiger that run[s] in defeat after a few blows," the terror chief recalled. "America forgot all about the hoopla and media propaganda and left dragging their corpses and their shameful defeat."
John Conyers (Mich. )Syndicated columnist Debbie Schlussel reported that Conyers and his wife - honored guests - watched and clapped as the Sanabel Al-Quds "dancing" troop from Milwaukee — featuring boys as young as seven — sang in Arabic of martyrdom and jihad for Allah and Palestine. They didn't need to understand Arabic, as the young boys used a rifle to simulate killing and pistol-whipping, simulated throat-slitting and beheadings, and dishonored the American flag. John Dingle - ruined career of Pulitzer Prize winner in the Baltimore Case with investigation and charges proved untrue. Patrick Leahy (V) censured for leaking sensitive security information John Kerry ( Mass ) - not-worth-the price gigolo used illegal 527 contributions
Politically Correct left-wing Congress betray the trust of Americans when they accept contributions from despotic, murderous terrorists. Before the Senator from Delaware, causes "his" Constitutional Crisis, if American troops given permission to chase their would-be killers across the border back into Iran ( held campaign - estimated $24,000 - fund-raiser for senator's campaign coffers at California home of Dr. Sadegh Namazi-khah, strong supporter of the Tehran regime and leading pro-Iran lobbyist ) this might be a good time for Senator Biden to re-read the preamble to the Declaration of Independence and understand the meaning of the following statements : We the People ... Democracy = rule by the people ; Popular Sovereignty = power from the people / supreme power or authority rests with the people.
NANCY PELOSI and JOHN CONYERS intend to squash Patriot Act, put leash on FBI agents, stop profiling Muslim suspects in terror investigations... In January 2003 Conyers, only member of Congress to speak and lend prestige to, anti-war rally organized by the Marxist-Leninist, pro-North Korean front group International A.N.S.W.E.R.... Rep.Charles Rangel addressed rally ' via ' letter. Conyers embraced group with same enthusiasm and support he gave Soviet-backed World Peace Council during Cold War. Conyers, according to Investors Business Daily, one of top recipients of donations from Arab-American Leadership PAC, with long history of pandering to Arab and Muslim voters, Conyers and other Detroit-area Democrats David Bonior and John Dingell, threatened to hold hearings unless the FBI stopped counter-terrorism interviews... Today, Hamas, Hezbollah and the Al-Qaeda-tied Muslim Brotherhood are all active in the area. Conyers has been a National Executive Board member of the National Lawyers Guild (NLG), which was originally created as a Soviet front and still embraces its Communist heritage.
Rep. Charles Rangel, chairmanship, powerful Ways and Means Committee, photographed at Workers World Party - Stalinists, ideology calls for destruction of United States, abolition of property, the literal enslavement of the entire human race, also sides with horrific totalitarian regime in North Korea against the USA - / Troops Out Now rally in Harlem, New York, March 19th, 2005.
Chicago congressman Danny Davis and aide took trip to Sri Lanka last year paid for by Tamil Tigers, group U.S. government cites as terrorists for use of suicide bombers and child soldiers. law-enforcement sources said.11 supporters of same organization on charges of participating in a broad conspiracy to aid the terrorist group through money laundering, arms procurement and bribery of U.S. officials.
Traitorous members of Congress who aid and abet America's sworn enemies that have and continue to create " Constitutional Crisis ". Traitor, a person or officials in power who are perceived as failing to act in the best interest of their constituents. Treason, any attempt to overthrow the government or impair the well-being of a state to which one owes allegiance; the crime of giving aid or comfort to the enemies of one's government. The Constitution of the United States, Art. III, defines treason against the United States to consist only in levying war against them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid or comfort... Maybe its time for Americans who care about America and the values it stands for to once again, rebel against the usurpers, who have taken or tried to take control of the mind and soul of America
Today, radical feminism, women's studies, gay rights and black studies are branches of Critical Theory - which criticizes. In effect, to bring down Western Culture and Capitalism is to criticize, but never lay down an alternative theory- because one does not exist. ( 1930's ) Accepting this cockeyed theory was Erich Fromm, Herbert Marcuse and Theodore Adorno... introduce the sexual element - essential to PC. Marcuse advocated a ' society of polymorphous perversity ". Fromm's view expressed a view of masculinity and femininity as derived from differences in life functions, socially determined not essential sexual differences. Environmentalism, another tenet of political correctness, became manipulative dominating attitude toward nature = theme, man's domination of nature. Horkheimer's antagonism to the ' fetisshization of labor in his writing., also demanding human sensual happiness, felt hostility to what he saw as personal gratification inherent in culture.
According to Politically Correct, liberating tolerance = intolerance for anything coming from the Right and tolerance for anything coming from the Left. The Politically Correct left is systematically destroying America : 1. Hate Crime Laws punish political thought ; 2.Affirmative Action 3. Attempting to impose.Totalitarian in America 2.Politically Correct adherents seem void of reality 3.Their single factor explanation - POWER - race, sex, adherents = good; Opponents = evil. Ethnics = victims 4. Expropriation / confiscation by government / quotas imposed by government 5. Deconstruction - truth, whatever PC deem it to be at a given point in time. 6. Western culture and Religion had to be destroyed - according to Marx and adherents.
The politically correct "elite" pundits and journalists play the terrorists' game, become complicit in their propaganda. According to politically correct Democrats. The terrorists win by simply continuing to find " soft " targets to kill - no mention or qualifier is ever voiced as to how savage and inhumane a group of killers are those who hide behind women and children. No mention is ever made about the abject terror of living with the ever presence of imminent death that the people living with terrorists must experience. Pundits aid, abet and encourage terrorists who cannot win militarily. They hide behind and among helpless humans, bomb, run and hide !!! The rise of the insurgency violence in Iraq can be traced to America's PC crowd's cheerleading. They offer tacit encouragement to just hang on until George Bush is out of office, then, COMRADE, YOU'RE HOME FREE !
Sedition, any act, writing, speech, etc., directed unlawfully against state authority, the government, or constitution, or calculated to bring it into contempt or to incite others to hostility, ill will or disaffection... Maybe it's time the Sedition Act was applied to some our treasonous mainstream media, namely : The New York Times, who publishes every national security secret, traitorous moles in sensitive committees or agencies can steal and ferret out - that the Times thinks will aid America's enemies and hasten - what the Times thinks will be America's destruction; CNN - Clinton's Network News - ; NBC, CBS and ABC. The Federalist majority in Congress passed the Sedition Act, President Adams signed it into law on July 14, 1798, to make the United States more secure from foreign spies and domestic traitors. Time to put it to its intended use. Squatters in Washington should be put on notice, The power and perks in Washington, you have become addicted to are only on loan - you are not the owner, only a squatter.

PUSH WAGES / PULL COSTS ECONOMIC 101 FOR THE RELUCTANT SCHOLAR
Economics comes from the Greek words [oikos], meaning house, and [nomos], meaning custom or law, hence "rules of the house." Economics involves choice, incentives and resources behind them. Economics also involve alternatives that require choice, including crime, education, health, law, marriage, politics, religion, and wars. Economics is part of almost everything involving you, yours and your future . The Democrats made a very big deal out of raising the minimum wage. So focus is on what raising the minimum wage really means and if and how you, the minimum wage earner benefits- if you do.
When government pushes up wages, wages also pull up costs. Hypothetically, you the minimum wage earner has a job that pays you because your employer needs your labor to produce the goods or services that he must sell. If the government decides your employer must pay more ( increase the hourly wage ) and demand that you, the wage earner receive certain benefits ( your wages + contribution to your social security payments, health benefits, compensation insurance, sick leave, vacation pay, bereavement and maternity leave pay and less we forget, frequent 15 minutes breaks during your work day - non-productive ) Now, in order for your employer to meet this obligation to pay more, he must increase the cost of his goods or service. When your wages go up, so does the cost of your rent, gas, electricity, cell phones, pizza, movie, popcorn and DVD's.
In our economic system, the market has a big say in whether your employer can successfully raise the cost of his goods and services and still make a profit. The consumer ( buy the goods and services ) vote with their dollars. Too high ? They buy the goods and services somewhere else, at a lower price. That's Competition! Others find ways to provide same goods and services, at a lower cost. Cost of resources your employer needs translate into costs pulled up when government pushes up wages . It's the circular flow of economics one thing affects another : land /rent, ; labor / ; resources / production / management costs all rise with wages. If, competition produces a liability, rather than a profit, your employer can't afford additional costs, goes out of business. Job lost ! Big problem for entry-level employees .
Minimum wage jobs are usually entry level jobs. - first job, develops skills, work ethics ( learn to get up and get to the job on time, every day; give a full day's work for a full day's pay; No horseplay on the job; keep careless breakage or destruction to a minimum; if there is customer contact, represent your employer and his/her establishment to the best of your ability - no surliness, profanity, obscene gestures, finger salutes; inciting conflict among fellow workers, etc. ) Entry level jobs pay a little less. Entry level accepts fact, " what you see is what you get " - Baggy pants, overly playfulness, negative response to criticism , " you can take this job and shove it ! " Employers hire entry level at a lower price with fewer benefits because they provide the necessary skills another employer purchases at a higher price. Entry-level jobs allow time for education that raises employees worth.
Entry level jobs were once first jobs for teenagers ( 1st employment stint ) or first "real" job for a someone who had strayed from the straight and narrow, and is struggling back to a better life. Mature individuals, with families to support, have no business working at entry level jobs. Education is the answer. Actions have consequences. Get ready for several years of working days and acquiring an education at night. Self-respect not stipends required ! Life provides few short cuts to a meaningful life. As the saying, " Anything worth having, is worth striving for " indicates a certain amount of struggle. There is no such thing as a free lunch. One with the power to give, also has the power to take. Be wary of politicians who promise rainbows without benefit of rain. " It ain't gonna happen " . Work for what you want and need. Achievement leads to pride in self, and inner peace, a wonderful thing - goes well with self-esteem.
Now, if government forces entry level ( usually small businesses, Mom / Pop operations ) to pay too high a wage, for entry-level employees, bankruptcy can be the result, long before you learn to work and have worth to the employer. Often, decisions to hire fewer entry level workers is the result ( you may have to kiss that job prospect goodbye ) or hire a more qualified worker ( ditto, to job prospect ).
