Freedom Concerts, For The Right Reason

Last night, the first of five Freedom Concerts played in Atlanta, Ga.. I’m not finding even one news article about the sell-out audience in Atlanta. The proceeds and all donations are used to provide college educations for the kids of our fallen soldiers. And also for those who would rather get a technical school degree, or require special educational needs. Whichever, it’s paid for.

“We get up and take care of kids and we live our lives and don’t have to worry about liberty and freedom,” Hannity says. “We get to have all these fun times because of the soldiers’ enormous sacrifice. This is a way to honor them.”

Lets contrast this with The Live Earth Concert, that world-wide concert extravaganza to save the earth managed to raise no money to contribute towards that cause. Since there was no ‘profit’ realized from the shows, the word is that the concerts were to raise public awareness for global warming. As if Algore’s science fiction movie hadn’t already done that. We’ve seen it mentioned in the news on an almost daily basis, so that couldn’t be the reason. It took Robert Kennedy Jr. to say what it was really about. It’s about criminalizing differing opinions and promoting political activism, at this supposedly non-political event.

“Get rid of all these rotten politicians that we have in Washington, who are nothing more than corporate toadies … This is treason. And we need to start treating them as traitors,” said Kennedy.

It was about his political socialist ideology and anti-capitalistic agenda of these ‘progressive’ types. Progressive, Socialist, the words are interchangeable. Government good, business bad. Kennedy did an excellent job of portraying the anti-establishment hippies of the 60’s. It’s almost like he never evolved beyond that.

The media however did cover the Live Earth event both in the ‘news’ and the on-air broadcast of it.

Between the two events, which event was non-political? Which one have you heard about in the media?

See Kennedy’s performance on Levin Papantonio Television, or rather, goLeft TV. The agenda begins after around 3 min. and 40 seconds into the 6 minute video. If you can watch it for that long.

Democrat Party, Investigation Central

This is worth repeating. What has this Democrat Congress done for the first six months? Minimum wage increase passed. Rep. Waxman is the Chairman of the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform.Besides gas, that’s the only thing this Congress has passed. They don’t believe they were elected to do anything but investigate that evil George Bush and his administration. That’s just what Henry Waxman said he would do. You see, they are working their plan. What do you think they were supposed to do, fix Social Security, win the war, secure the border?

Both the House and Senate Judiciary committees are issuing subpoenas into an investigation of legal activity. They are investigating legal activity. There is no accusation of anything illegal in the firing of those 8 U.S. attorneys.

Waxman will probe areas of “Bush government.”

Live Earth On Again In Rio, But

According to the Rio Justice Tribunal, the suspension of the concert has been revoked and the show will go on as scheduled. The show is “the last concert in Saturday’s Live Earth global series — partly organized by former U.S. Vice President Al Gore — with events also due in London, Sydney, Johannesburg, Tokyo, Shanghai, Hamburg and East Rutherford, New Jersey.”

And the purpose of having a fundraising event like Live Earth and charge no admission is what? The show in Rio is free. Is that because they are so civilized that they might riot if it were not free? Inquiring minds want to know.

This blurb is interesting, mainly because I haven’t heard this anywhere else in the media about Algore’s save the earth project. . .

Rio is the only Live Earth concert free and open to the public. If it had been stopped, it would have been the second cancellation; Istanbul was dropped last month because of a lack of interest and security concerns. Ticket sales have been slow for most Live Earth shows and organizers had to change venues in Johannesburg in a bid to improve sales there.

That’s the typical liberal business model alright. Give the product away, and make up the loss by increasing the quantity given away. Air America just pays stations to carry their programming, or gives it away on satellite radio.  And if it doesn’t work out, then it’s the government’s job to support them in one way or the other.  To be fair you know.  Sorry, I’m rambling again.

Iran’s Quds Force Training Iraqi Insurgent Groups

On a weekly if not daily basis lately, evidence that Iran is meddling in Iraq is mounting up.  And on the same regular basis our Democrat leaders in Washington, and especially those wanting to be President, are denying that there is anything we need to do about it. To do what is necessary would be to acknowledge that there is an enemy out there that is hell bent on killing us.  And that Iran is not only killing our soldiers, but Iraqis, Palestinians and Jews.

What are the chances that the Democrats running for President will change from bashing Bush to telling us their ideas on how they will deal with the challenges this nation faces?  I don’t think it will happen.  Running on no platform worked for them in ’06, but if they think it will work the same for them in ’08 then more power to them.  They are planning to fail.  Which, come to think of it, is the same way they are fighting this war.

Muslim Cleric Caught Dressed In Drag

Buried in the Asia/Pacific section of the New York Times, the preferred newspaper of jihadistsPicture this in a burqa and high heels.  everywhere, is this news that radical Muslim cleric Maulana Mohammad Abdul Aziz, chief cleric of the Lal Mosque in Islamabad, was arrested when he tried to sneak past Pakistani authorities in a burqa and high heels. Where’s the picture of that girlyman?

He was caught this evening as he left the mosque among a group of female students.

Oh wait! Here it is.

Three Names For The Pardon List

Scooter Libby isn’t the only American that should be pardoned. Forget this commuting the sentence crap. That is the wimpiest (if that’s a word) application of justice that I’ve ever seen. A pardon is what Libby has coming to him, as do these two American heroes who were wrongfully prosecuted and began their combined 23 years prison term on January 17th, Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean. U.S. Border Patrol Agents Ramos and Compean are in prison because they tried to stop, if not kill, a guy from entering the country illegally. His vehicle was loaded with 743 pounds of pot. He managed to get away after being shot in the butt, and later came back to the U.S. to accuse the officers of violating his civil rights for shooting him. As unbelievable as it sounds, the illegal drug runner prevailed and our public servants are in jail.

Add Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean to the pardon list along with Scooter Libby.

ACLU Taking Sides

The ACLU has been very busy lately. They sued the city of Slidell, LaDaylight is to a vampire as Jesus is to the ACLU.. over a portrait of Jesus hanging on the wall of a courthouse lobby. It is apparent that Jesus, well no, it’s not even Jesus, it is a picture of Jesus. A picture of Jesus is to the ACLU what daylight is to a vampire for crying out loud.

So when it comes to the subject of foot-baths for Muslims’ use before prayer, five times a day, you would think the ACLU would be all over that too! But you’d be wrong.

In fact, the Muslim group that was considering getting these foot-baths for their believers anticipated the ACLU would either sue them or the school over using public money that they were prepared to fund the $25,000 ‘project’ with private funds. But when they found out that the ACLU would represent them, they decided to have taxpayers buy them instead.

Muslims are required to wash body parts, including feet, up to five times daily before prayers. University officials say the floor-level wash basins are needed because some students at the 8,600-student campus wash their feet in the sinks.

A lesson on the subject of character from the “Religion of Peace”?

The public accommodation as far as I can tell is the fact that these ‘foot-baths’ are for prayer purposes. They’re sure not for hygiene. Prayer and the sinks that go with it are OK? A picture is not? How come I can Google all kinds of pictures of Jesus but not one picture of a Muslim foot-bath?

The ACLU has not only been busy, but they also have apparently taken sides. For them its political though, not religious. This issue is just a ride on the vehicle of chance to advance their contrary agenda. What’s important to note however is the fact that now they can not avoid showing themselves for the leftist anti-American bunch that they are. Even to the cool-aide drinkers out there. The ACLU is still a pig with lipstick. And the Muslims in Dearbornistan are what they are.

Belly up to the counter. Politics are on the menu and Ross is on the grill.
