STOP IT!

Mary Kay Letourneau seems to have started something that won't go away.

I am getting so SICK of these "women" teachers who are coming out of the woodwork being charged with having sex with underage boys. What is your damage?! What are you not getting from your husband or what messed you up so bad you have to go to CHILDREN for love?! How, HOW in the world do they think that this is normal?! It's not beautiful! It's not normal! It's not a "special kind of love"! It's sick, disgusting and it's being a pedophile! If a man was charged with doing the same thing he would be RAKED THROUGH THE COALS! These women seem to be thinking of one thing and one thing only, THEMSELVES. They don't care about their loved ones, they don't care about the boy, they don't care about their own self-worth, they don't think about their own dignity! There are things you don't do, and THIS IS ONE OF THEM! One day I plan to have children and I welcome the thought of having boys. BUT SO HELP ME GOD, if I EVER find out my boys are being MOLESTED by a pedophile woman, YOUR BEHIND IS MINE.

NAMBLA, you too!

Michael, Michael, Michael...

They are what Dan Abrams of the Abrams Report call the "Jackson 12", 12 jurors and their 8 alternates presiding over the Michael Jackson case. Of the 12 regular jurors, 8 are women, 4 are men. Jackson’s "peers", eight whites, three Hispanics and one Asian, will hear the case and decide the verdict. They are mothers and fathers, and at least two have had experience with child abusers and the abused.

Jackson has gotten himself in a pickle. He is being charged with the child abuse of a boy whom spent time with him at his Neverland Ranch. Accusations of "Jesus Juice", being held at the ranch against the boy’s will and pornography are abound. To convince the jurors of his innocence, the defense is bringing in all sorts of famous stars to speak on Jackson’s behalf among other things.

Anyone I ask about this case either says one of two things. "They need to leave him alone," or "He did it," are the statements I hear. I’ve also heard from other people he is not going to have a fair trial because he is a successful, black man. The man is darn well near transparent, and even so, why must these people ignore all the red flags and zero in on that one, insignificant thing? Michael’s own father cries racism whenever he can and just like when Tiger Woods’ father does, I look at him like he is crazy.

I believe Michael Jackson will get a fair trial. But he could have avoided all this if he would have just learned from the first time. Maybe the boy and his mother are just out for the money, maybe Jackson did do it. I don’t know, but that’s what the trial is for. If convicted, Jackson could be looking at a lot of time in jail, a place where those convicted of child molestation are not looked upon very favorably.

It’s the new "trial of the century." Let’s hope they get it right this time unlike the last one.

3 TIMES?!

I hate the flu. I guess Michael Jackson gave it to me and then I gave it to Michelle Malkin. (laughs) It's almost gone though, so I'm happy. Soon I'll be back to some real blogging and hopefully, my new blogmate will be able to post some of his "conservative-in-training" thoughts. Came across this article today, courtesy of Ladies Against Feminism.

Boy is aborted 3 times and lives
Lois Rogers and Sarah-Kate Templeton

A BABY survived at least three attempts to abort it from the womb and was born alive at 24 weeks old.
The boy was delivered in hospital after his 24- year-old mother changed her mind about wanting the child after feeling it move on the way home from an abortion clinic.

Although the clinic had told her an ultrasound scan had confirmed the child was dead, she went into labour that afternoon and the boy was born alive.

Now two years old and healthy, he is the first long-term abortion survivor to have been born so prematurely. His remarkable entrance into the world is documented in the Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology.

The mother had not realised she was going to have a baby until 22 weeks into the pregnancy and felt that she could not cope with a second child. She was given a series of abortion drugs over four days at a private clinic.

After birth the child was rushed to the hospital’s neonatal intensive care unit where he was on a ventilator for 7Å weeks. He fought off several life-threatening infections and suffered from severe lung disease for his first six months. He was allowed home after seven months of treatment.

Dr Paul Clarke, one of the report’s authors and the baby’s doctor at Hope hospital in Salford, Greater Manchester, said: “This mother went through extreme hardship waiting to see if her baby was going to make it. She was told to expect him to die so many times. I am full of admiration for her.”

The attempted abortions had been carried out at the British Pregnancy Advisory Service’s Blackdown clinic in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire.

Clarke reveals that paediatricians often intervene to save babies who have survived abortions.
He writes: “Late abortion raises serious practical, ethical and professional concerns. The dilemma of being telephoned about an infant born showing signs of life following termination of pregnancy is one that many paediatricians have faced. If viable, and resuscitated, those infants who survive may suffer significant illness.”


The paper calls for a review of late abortions at private clinics where there are no staff qualified to give emergency treatment if babies are born alive.

Ann Furedi, chief executive of the British Pregnancy Advisory Service, said: “It sounds highly unusual. Usually we would keep a woman at the clinic until she delivered the foetus. When women are having a late medical abortion they are normally attended in the clinic by nursing staff with specialist midwifery training.

“It would never be the case that a woman would be discharged with the expectation that she would deliver at home.”

They just don't (want to) get it

A nice little Valentine's Day article, post Valentine's Day an hour and a couple minutes....


From Townhall.com:

Feminists on warpath to get their man
Phyllis Schlafly
February 14, 2005

The feminists, who have no sense of humor, have given Americans a big belly laugh, but it's no laughing matter to the principals involved. The feminists lassoed Harvard University President Lawrence Summers, no less, and dragged him groveling through the ivy until they wrung from him all they wanted and more.

The most intolerant feminists are on the faculties of elite colleges and universities. The Communists used to severely punish as "deviationists" all those who strayed from the party line, but feminists have taken adherence to orthodoxy to new heights.

It didn't help Summers that he was president Bill Clinton's secretary of the treasury. Summers thought he was chatting off the record with intellectuals who had the maturity to engage in a little light banter combined with a provocative suggestion for academic research or possibly a new doctoral dissertation.

He was wrong. To liberals, some subjects are not only non-debatable, they are non-researchable because they think they already know the answers and they don't want to be confused by facts.

The cornerstone of the political correctness that dominates campus culture is radical feminism. And the first commandment of feminism is: I am woman; thou shalt not tolerate strange gods who assert that women have capabilities or often choose roles that are different from those of men.

Summers said that he had tried gender-neutral upbringing on his little daughter by giving her toy trucks to play with. She immediately pretended they were dolls and named them "daddy truck" and "baby truck."

Summers wasn't proclaiming a new scientific discovery. Sex differences from the cradle are known to every parent and were explained to the public in delightful detail in John Stossel's famous ABC documentary called "Boys and Girls Are Different." But a lot of feminists are still in the dark on this matter because they don't have any children or at least don't have both sons and daughters.

Then Summers suggested that some studies be undertaken to see whether there are any innate gender differences that might explain why fewer women than men have succeeded in science and math careers in academia.

That was the torch that ignited an international media firestorm. Abandoning all dignity, Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor Nancy Hopkins slammed down her laptop and stormed out of the room because, she said, "I would've either blacked out or thrown up." Her stereotypical behavior confirmed speculation that women might be unable to face scientific issues scientifically.

Another feminist demanded that Summers immediately submit to a week of "intense discussions" to get him to admit his guilt. Other feminists ran to the Internet and to friends in the media to activate an orgy of indignation and personal attacks.

Congressional liberals got into the act, too. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., was quoted nationally that Summers "knows that he clearly crossed the line."

Summers didn't say anything that hasn't been said by a few courageous scholars many times before. For example, University of Virginia Professor Steven Rhoads' book "
Taking Sex Differences Seriously" (Encounter) is copiously documented.

But, as the dean at the very feminist Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Studies said, Summers gave us "an opportunity that didn't exist before" and we took it "to see that the changes at Harvard get made."
After two weeks of flagellation by the liberal media plus those "intense discussions" (a k a Soviet-style re-education) to force Summers to accept liberal dogma and use only feminist-permitted language, a contrite Summers apologized over and over again. It was unconditional surrender.

Summers appointed not one but two task forces: one on women in the Harvard faculty and another specifically on women in science and engineering, to recruit, support and promote women.

The task forces, which must report by May 1, are made up of 22 women and 5 men - the feminist version of gender equality. The chairman of the task force on women in science and engineering told the press she took the assignment only on Summers' promise that he will "act immediately on the suggestions."

It's doubtful that the task forces will make any suggestions - more likely they will issue orders. The announcement didn't include any caveat that new female hires be as qualified as the men who would be passed over, because Summers is already on record as endorsing affirmative action.

In one more Summers capitulation, he will appoint a commissar of faculty diversity. Perhaps we should say a commissarina since there's no need to speculate about her gender.

When will American men learn how to stand up to the nagging by the intolerant, uncivil feminists whose sport is to humiliate men? Men should stop treating feminists like ladies, and instead treat them like the men they say they want to be.



Amen.

Imagine this...

Imagine this commercial...

The setting is a party hosted by Jesse Jackson where all of the people know each other. Everyone is talking and laughing with each other except one person who has placed himself in a corner. After a while, one partygoer goes up to Jesse and asks him about the man. Jesse acknowledges the man in the corner and then turns to the questioning partygoer and says, "It's okay. I know him. He's gotten me out of some tight spots."

The man in question has the word "Lies" across his forehead.

My boyfriend had thought of one for Al Sharpton involving 2 talking chickens but I forgot it.

Confessions of a Black Conservative Republican

The Littlest Republican

I am a "Reagan Republican". I was born and was growing up in DC when Reagan was the President of United States. I was a little too young to fully remember him, but all it took was the words "I like him." for my parents to know. Since then I’ve grown up. Books and the internet have given me access to information about Ronald Reagan. I still like him.

When I became voting age, my parents didn’t command me to vote Democrat like a few people I know parents did. They knew what I was and never did try to change it. Although they are both Democrat, they let me research and choose for myself. I voted for Bush in the 2000 election, but voted for Peroutka in 2004. Bush was my second pick so I wasn’t upset at his victory (and I still don’t believe I "wasted my vote" as defeatist thinkers believe). I plan to stay a Republican all my life even if I do vote for an independent party candidate here and there.

I believe in a small government that is there only when deemed needed. I believe welfare (if it has to be around) should be there for people who really need it, not for people who are too lazy to work, believe they are owed something or for women who just have baby after baby (...after baby) just to get more. I do not believe in affirmative action. I especially believe affirmative action in academia hurts more than helps. I believe the giving out of reparations for slavery is a bad idea. I myself don’t like the idea of getting money for something I never went through but what would it accomplish if we were to get reparations? Nothing. I believe abortion is wrong, period, and unfortunately the late Margaret Sanger (the founder of Planned Parenthood) would be overjoyed to know that black women are having abortions at such a high rate. I do not believe in gay marriage and not only because I feel that homosexuality is wrong. I support concealed weapons and people being able to keep their own guns in their own house. I believe in school vouchers and that politicians who oppose them should put their own children in public school.


Female. Black. Republican. Proud.

There was a point in my life where I felt alone, though not entirely, in being a black Republican/conservative. Clarence Thomas, Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice are black Republicans, but I didn’t know many other black Republicans or conservatives I could relate to. One day I decided to, for the fun of it, to look up all the political parties and their platforms through the years. It is then I discovered La Shawn Barber...a black woman...who was a conservative...from DC...who happened to have gone to college in South Carolina (I lived in SC for 13 miserable years, I still want my old DC house back)! I was overjoyed to say the least. It was about this time I discovered Larry Elder, the black libertarian Republican with a take charge attitude. Things then snowballed. Star Parker, Mychal Massie, Thomas Sowell, Armstrong Williams, Ambra Nykol, Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson, Niger Innis, Roy Innis, M. H. King, Michael Cobb. If they weren’t both, they were one or the other. I also found out my boyfriend’s friend was a Republican. I even found out at least two of my sorors, famous ladies of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc., Sheryl Underwood and Dr. Eunice Thompson were Republican. I was and am still thrilled. I no longer felt alone. I felt proud.


You ain’t black if you ain’t Democrat!

If it’s one thing I can’t stand it is how blacks who choose something other than the Democratic Party are treated. I’m sorry. I didn’t know I was automatically programmed to be a Democrat just because I’m black. Darn that faulty programming! "Sell out!", "Uncle Tom!", "House N*****!" and "Aunt Jemima!" (Love that syrup by the way) are a few choice words white and black liberals have for black conservatives and Republicans. Okay, okay. Let me explain something to some of the liberals who take part in kindergarten tactics like this. If you’re trying to encourage someone to become something that you are, calling them names is not the way to go. It’s like those few Christians that literally scream at homosexuals they are going to hell if they don’t stop being homosexual. It just gets them angry and they tune you out. A nice, civil conversation can get almost (ALMOST) anyone to listen and change, but putting someone down or using "scare tactics" is not going to get you on their A list anytime soon. Sometimes I wonder if most of the people who call anyone an "Uncle Tom" have actually read Uncle Tom’s Cabin (by Harriet Beecher Stowe). As my mom has pointed out to me on numerous occasions, Tom was a strong, black man. So...basically...someone would be paying me a compliment if they called me an "Uncle Tom". Nice...but then again...I’m not a guy...

Because I don’t play victim or love to use white racism to explain away my failures, some liberals have labeled me "not black". Chairman Julian Bond of the NAACP has also labeled people like me "puppets" of the Republican Party. "They should talk," was the response I got from my boyfriend once. No, really they shouldn’t. They’re losing my respect (and even my mom’s) faster than a walk to their National Headquarters (I live 8 blocks from them at the moment). You mean that the color of my skin will literally disappear and I will become as white (if not whiter) as Michael Jackson if refuse to vote Democrat?! Oh my gosh, Michael, you voted Republican didn’t you?! Condeleezza Rice, Colin Powell and Clarence Thomas are, by a liberal’s definition, "not black". But people like Jesse "Just Me" Jackson, Al "Reparations Now!" Sharpton and even Bill "I did not have sexual relationships with that woman" Clinton are. Oh, and just because Clarence Thomas married a white woman, it somehow deems him unable to handle things when it comes to people of his own race. Uh...yeah...okay... How did black liberals react to Thurgood Marshall’s Asian wife? Maybe something was said at first, but through the years I’ve never heard anything bad. But unlike his Republican "brother", Clarence Thomas + white wife = "race traitor". Whatever you say...


I am a black conservative Republican. I am not some self-loathing nut job and I’m not helping to "turn back the clock". I just feel that I should be able to be a part of ANY party I choose, even if it is the party that was brought together to abolish slavery, whose members passed the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments and whose members passed the Civil Rights Acts. If you believe the Democratic Party did all these things, you need to pick up a history book.


Oh and another thing...my boyfriend renounced his Democratic Party affliation the other day. And if you tell him he’s "not black" I’m not responsible for the sarcastic (yet funny) remark that will come out his mouth.

Al Sharpton & KFC, best friends become foes

Instead of addressing the out-of-wedlock births, the abortion rates, crime and education problems within the black community, after a hiatus from the media spotlight, Al Sharpton rises and chooses to address the problems of CHICKENS as he allies with the crazy, radical, vegetarian agenda pushing likes of the group PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals). Poor KFC, it just lost its biggest customer.


From the New York Times:

Sharpton Joins With an Animal Rights Group in Calling for a Boycott of KFC
By MELANIE WARNER
Published: February 2, 2005

The Rev. Al Sharpton will not eat at KFC and he doesn't think you should either.

Starting today, Mr. Sharpton is joining forces with the animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals to urge a boycott of KFC, which is owned by Yum Brands of Louisville, Ky. Mr. Sharpton and PETA want the fast food chain to require its chicken suppliers to put in place new standards for the treatment of the 750 million chickens they process for KFC every year in the United States. The rap mogul Russell Simmons is also joining the Sharpton campaign.

"If we give our money to KFC, we're paying for a life of misery for some of God's most helpless creatures," says Mr. Sharpton in an eight-minute video that will be shown outside KFC's around the country.

PETA has been waging a campaign against KFC for two years. The organization was eager to enlist Mr. Sharpton because KFC has many stores in largely black neighborhoods and in late 2003 KFC executives told investors they were making an increased effort to market to blacks.

Mr. Sharpton and PETA are demanding that KFC force its chicken suppliers, like Pilgrim's Pride and Perdue, to give chickens more room in factory barns and to make use of a process that puts birds to sleep with nitrogen before they are killed. They are also asking KFC to stop its suppliers from forcing such rapid, hormone-driven growth that the birds crumple under their own weight.

PETA said that unlike other companies, KFC has been largely unresponsive. "KFC has been by far the most stubborn corporation we have attempted to work with," said PETA's president, Ingrid Newkirk, in a written statement.

Yum Brands, which also own Taco Bell and Pizza Hut, declined to comment on PETA's demands and allegations. "PETA is an organization more interested in promoting vegetarianism than the truth," a spokesman, Jonathan Blum, said.

PETA recently won a concession from McDonald's, which said it would study the possibility of requiring American suppliers to use the process of so-called controlled-atmosphere killing.

Several years ago, in response to PETA's "Unhappy Meal" campaign, McDonald's, which buys one of every 20 eggs sold in America, agreed to buy eggs only from farms offering hens extra water, more wing room in their cages and fresh air.

PETA says it has chosen to shed light on the chicken industry in recent years because large chicken producers and sellers have made little movement toward more humane practices. "The chicken industry is way behind the beef and pork industries," said Dr. Temple Grandin, associate professor of animal science at Colorado State University and a member of Yum Brands' animal welfare advisory council. "They need to work on getting some of the same auditing systems in place."

Animal welfare specialists like Dr. Grandin agree with PETA that the short lives of chickens need to be improved. Dr. Grandin said that as many as 6 percent of birds suffer broken wings or legs when workers pack them into crates and onto trucks.

"A lot of workers aren't adequately trained," said Dr. Mohan Raj, a senior research fellow at the University of Bristol in Britain and a veterinarian who has studied chicken welfare practices in the United States.

Animal rights activists are hardly KFC's only problem. In recent years, the company has been the financial stepchild at Yum Brands. Last year KFC's same-store sales were down 2 percent; sales increased at Taco Bell and Pizza Hut.


I'm just about to say screw it and not make my boyfriend dinner tonight. I should take him to KFC and we get the biggest order of chicken we can get. I will continue to eat at KFC and I will continue to look at Al Sharpton like he is crazy more now because he cares for chickens more than his own people.
