Liberal democrats with the help of 30 liberal republicans, voted to add a pro-gay provision to the “Children’s Safety Act”. Under the cover of a hate crime, what we have are the thought police. It should be a crime for wrong behavior, not what you think. Existing federal hate-crime laws already cover women and minorities. What these kinds of laws do is legitimize deviant behavior. It gives certain individuals a law they can use as a weapon. Isn’t this bill supposed to be to protect children? Why are we protecting gays? If anything there should be provisions to further protect children from the deviants such as NAMBLA, the North American Man-Boy Love Association. These perverts also have a female auxiliary. If we are going to have thought crimes we should start here. How dangerous are people with the thoughts these crazies have?

So many things have come to pass that at one time we never thought possible. Keep giving in and eventually you lose more than you ever thought possible. This could eventually affect religious freedom of speech. We never thought there would be abortions after a child is born. Are we going to keep going in this direction? Children’s Safety Act? What about the children who have been forced by their parents to stay through two of the worst hurricanes in history? How many have died or lived through horror? That should be a hate crime against children. Has anyone been arrested for this? Children’s Safety Act? You can call it what you want. You can pass a million bogus laws. Who is really looking out for the children?

I guess I was right again. Most people do not eat corpses after four days without food. Randall Robinson has retracted his statement that black people in New Orleans were eating corpses. He says he stands by the rest of his story. So after all that, we wind up with a pretty typical column from a rabid liberal. Accusations and insinuations with no facts to back any of them up.

This is a poll that won’t get a lot of airplay. Only 13% of respondents to a Sept. 5-6 CNN/USA Today/Gallup poll believe President Bush is to blame for the Katrina aftermath. 87% point the blame elsewhere or believe no one is to blame. 13% is a significant number. In the political environment we live in, most polls blaming Bush for just about anything will hit 40% or higher. I didn’t think a scenario could be put together that could only come up with a 13% figure to blame President Bush. That on the heels of incredible media propoganda that has blamed the President for everything from causing the hurricane to withholding aid from black citizens. The real truth about it all is just starting to trickle in.

Another predictable thing about this poll is the headline to the CNN article. It says: “Most Americans believe New Orleans will never recover”. You know that is not the question they were most interested in. It’s kinda vague too, don’t you think? If you were just scanning headlines, you would never know about the results in regards to President Bush. Incredible.

The media will continue to fish for poll results that will show numbers for the President in an unfavorable light. Those results will be reported much more prominently than this poll is. You see, polls are used by the media as weapons for political propoganda. They just try, try again and tweak the questions until they get the result they are looking for. Then they report it as hard news. The way they report the results can also easily mislead.

Food For Thought:

Is the media using this book as their playbook? This quote is from a book that dates way back to 1954:

“The secret language of statistics, so appealing in a fact-minded culture, is employed to sensationalize, inflate, confuse, and oversimplify. Statistical methods and statistical terms are necessary in reporting the mass data of social and economic trends, business conditions, ‘opinion’ polls, the census. But without writers who use the words with honesty and understanding and readers who know what they mean, the result can only be semantic nonsense.”

It’s Official. The politicizing of a tragedy is in full force. I knew it was coming before the hurricane even hit. It has become so predictable. What I didn’t know is how soon it would happen and with such vicious ferocity. It is sickening. If you listen to the liberals and the media we apparently have a racist hurricane and a President who refused to save the victims.

Out of the many ridiculous insinuations and accusations, a couple from civil rights activist Randall Robinson epitomize what is happening. He states that after four days without food, blacks had to resort to eating corpses. Four days! I find this rather hard to believe. I can believe that four days in the intense heat without water people might resort to drinking contaminated water. But cannibalism? If anyone was eating corpses after four days they already had some issues going into this thing. Of course he does not say where he got his information. Liberals throw out wild statements and most often cannot back them up. That is the difference between bloggorheah and blog chow. I look for the facts and show you where to look confirm them. And from credible sources, I might add.

Bad enough to slam the people who are trying to clean up this horrible mess, but to make a racist issue out of it is incredible. But people like Mr. Robinson and Jesse Jackson can not exist in a world without racism. This is what they do. They actually stir up and fuel racism. Robinson states: “I, the formerly un-jaundiced human rights advocate, have finally come to see my country for what it really is. A monstrous fraud.” Did President Bush force the hurricane to hit the country? Thankfully not all African-Americans feel this way. In most countries, if you were stranded after one of the worst natural disasters in history, you would be waiting for the Americans to come and save you. Randall Robinson is a political vulture. He is the one feeding off of human corpses. What did he do to save the citizens when he heard the hurricane warnings? Has he offered a solution to save them now? No, that’s not what intolerant liberal extremists do. They play the blame game.

Louisiana disaster plan, pg 13, para 5 , dated 01/00

‘The primary means of hurricane evacuation will be personal vehicles. School and municipal buses, government-owned vehicles and vehicles provided by volunteer agencies may be used to provide transportation for individuals who lack transportation and require assistance in evacuating’…

I knew it wouldn’t take long to turn the worst disaster in U.S. history into political ambulance chasing. I didn’t think it would happen less than 24 hours after the carnage of Hurricane Katrina. It actually seems that Bobby Jr. is giddy about it. The timing of it has to make one wonder. His vulgar article is titled: “For They That Sow the Wind Shall Reap the Whirlwind”. I must warn you before you read the article however that his writing is excruciatingly boring. Think Al Gore on valium. He’s a tough read. Not Blog Chow by any stretch of the imagination. I can’t help when considering the family history, whether remarks like this are the result of a pickled brain or one fried from wacky tobacky. There are a couple of sentences that show what the left wing has become. He basically says that it’s Mississippi Governor Haley Barbour’s fault for the hurricane because he said regulating CO2 was eco-extremism. Talk about a cheap shot at a time when all people should be working together. It’s sad to see.

Make no mistake about it, you are going to see a lot of political opportunism in the days ahead off of the human suffering. There will be a steady increase of insinuations that President Bush is to blame for the agony caused by this hurricane, despite the fact that he declared a state of emergency and started the wheels in motion the day before the hurricane even hit. Everyone had advance notice that this was likely to devastate New Orleans. Citizens were told to leave even if they had no place to go. In fact it was a mandatory evacuation. Many thousands did not heed the warnings. Yet some people are so quick to place blame when the worst happens. Like the looters and thugs, it shows the worst of humanity. Thankfully, it has brought out the best as well. My heart breaks for these poor people. It’s horrible what is happening. It’s just wrong to play on people’s emotions and play monday morning quarterback with what will be the greatest rescue and humanitarian effort in history. To blame someone for a hurricane is simply insanity. The media will stoke the blame game fire.

Food For Thought:

This is a post to the website/Kennedy article. It’s a good example of the insanity of the global warming issue:

There was an article early this year about recent trends in atmospheric brightening, where improving air quality over formerly (or improving) communist countries was causing more sunlight to penetrate and accelerating global warming.

If anyone wants to track back evidence in global warming they should notice it came about the same time the western countries started cleaning their air. So who’s responsible for global warming? Gee, I guess it’s the environmental movement (y’know the ones who back in the 60’s said we needed to clean the air or we’d get global cooling?). How do we fix it? Start burning stuff outdoors, I guess. Lose the particulate scrubbers off the smokestacks, maybe. Simple enough. Cough. The end result of 100% electric or hydrogen cars? We all bake.
