Dispatches From An Alternative Reality

MR. ORWELL, PLEASE PICK UP THE WHITE COURTESY PHONE
Not content with hoaxes to inflate hate crime statistics, researchers at the University of Utah have developed an app available through Google Play that allows users to report incidents of “hate.” Users report the incident under one of four categories- propaganda, verbal, violent and property damage. Since the reporting is confidential, no need to prove hate…or anything for that matter! Someone hurt your feelings? Whip out that smart phone and go to your hate reporting app. The thought police will appreciate your cooperation.
 
THE NEWSPEAK DICTIONARY GETS A TIMELY UPDATE
Britain’s top leftist rag, The Guardian, recently announced that henceforth “climate change” will be referred to as “climate emergency, crisis, or breakdown,” “global warming” will now be “global heating,’ and “climate skeptic” will be “climate science denier.” Citizens are advised to update their dictionaries accordingly. Get with the program people! 

HIGH TOPS GO GAY
Last week, it was Bud Light going all rainbow flag gay. This week it is Converse sneakers. The Pride collection is being promoted by six people associated with the Rump Ranger/Muff Diver community, most notably “drag kid” Desmond Napoles- age 11. For the the almighty buck, Converse is encouraging the normalization of deviant behavior in prepubescent children. That used to be called pedophilia. Today, its called “Pride.”

MILWAUKEE DECLARES RACISM A PUBLIC HEALTH CRISIS
County supervisors and the Office on African American Affairs joined in signing a resolution to declare racism a public health crisis. Thanks to those hipster doofus anti-vaxxer parents not immunizing their children against racism, there is a pandemic in Milwaukee. Luckily the bold leadership has stepped up and declared a crisis. The real public health emergency here is rampant liberalism. I know nothing about Milwaukee politics and yet I’m certain that this didn’t come from Republicans. This is a huge waste of public funds and won’t do anything that isn’t disastrous. The Governor of Wisconsin should send in the National Guard with doses of Tamil for liberalism and stop this outbreak before it spreads. And yes, I’m certain Tamiflu for liberalism is a real thing. If not, this seems like a pretty stupid health emergency declaration.

The Left's Futile Atempt to Eliminate the Phrase ‘Fake News’


One thing the left has been extremely successful in doing is redefining the language. Academia and the media have given us phases like "Womens Reproductive Rights" to legitimize their evil, and have recently redefined words like "Diversity " to push an agenda and mask their hate. The left originally coined the term "Fake News" to describe right-leaning news sources like Breitbart and RedState. But during the contentious campaign of 2016, the actions of the media, with their unabashed bias, lies and cheer-leading, Donald J. Trump turned the tables. Since then much crying a gnashing of teeth have followed. 

"The term has become entirely applied to the left-leaning media as a derogatory epithet for mainstream news sites whose political coverage found to be flawed or biased,” complains Slate magazine. It is now “a handy cudgel for people who want to criticize the media for a wide range of failings. The speed with which the term became polarized and in fact a rhetorical weapon illustrates how efficient the conservative media machine has become.”

John Lloyd, a senior research fellow at the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism at the University of Oxford, laments its use. It portrays the mainstream media "as the tool of an arrogant, out-of-touch elite." There is much truth in that statement Mr. Lloyd, as well as it dripping with sweet irony you fail to see from the ivory towers. 

The left sees the damage the phrase is causing. They want people to stop using it. DJT calls The Washington Post fake news more than almost any other news outlet. Fighting back, Margaret Sullivan declared, “It’s Time to Retire the Tainted Term ‘Fake News.'” She complains that people use the phrase to describe left-leaning political views.

Hossein Derakhshan and Claire Wardle want to “Ban the Term ‘Fake News.'” The phrase, they say, has “become weaponized by politicians who use it to undermine independent journalism in an effort to reach the public directly through their own channels.” And that is a bad thing??

Ask someone what ‘fake news’ means today, and depending on their political orientation, they may be more likely to mention CNN or the New York Times, and for good reason.  In an attempt to discredit the phrase, The New York Times published an article listing dictators and other disreputable world leaders who have used the phrase “fake news.” Although there are plenty of democratic world leaders who have used the phrase, The Times focused only on the unpopular leaders.  The left is also frustrated that mere mistakes as they call them when they are caught red-handed, are being labeled fake news along with biased journalism.  Innocent gaffes, you know, like when the Media framed photos of the crowd at Trump’s inauguration in such a way to minimize the size.

There is one way the left could succeed in reducing the conservative use of the phrase. The AP Stylebook will eventually discourage its use. That would be in keeping with its left-leaning rules. The stylebook has often discouraged the use of words and phrases conservatives prefer, such as banning “illegal immigrants” as just one example.

Hillary Finally Wins An Election


The Texas State Board of Education have elected to keep Hillary Clinton, Helen Keller and several other historical figures in the Texas social studies curriculum. Clinton, Keller and other figures were on the chopping block, but ultimately will remain as well as (much to the chagrin of leftest) the biblical figure Moses, who is currently listed as a basis of Law in the U.S. government curriculum.

The board undertook this curriculum streamlining effort to save teachers time and provide them more flexibility in the classroom. Students are resorting to rote memorization instead of real learning, the board said, and one way to tackle this would be to cut down on what they're required to learn.

Helen Keller and Her Beloved Cat 'Mittens'
Volunteer working groups were convened to find places to cut and tweak the curriculum. The board then took up these suggested changes in September, voting to eliminate Clinton, Helen Keller and dozens of other historical figures. Since then, the story has gone viral, with the majority-Republican board accused of allowing its politics to influence what kids are taught in classrooms. The board voted 12-2 to keep Clinton with Republicans Pat Hardy of Fort Worth and Geraldine "Tincy" Miller of Dallas voting for elimination. Hardy said she voted to axe Clinton because "she doesn't represent good citizenship."

And finally on Wednesday, the board shot down an attempt by board member Erika Beltran, D-Fort Worth, and backed by all other five of the board's Democrats, to cut Moses from the high school U.S. government standard that describes him as an 'individual whose principles of laws and government institutions informed the American founding documents'.  "This particular individual, we have no evidence that he actually influenced the founding fathers," Beltran said, to which board member Bradley who objected replied, "I'm going to go ahead and err on the side of caution. I'd rather disagree with you than Moses."

The board also rejected a recommendation to remove a reference to the “heroism” of the defenders of the Alamo, meaning, as a Board of Education release said: "Texas schoolchildren will still learn of the heroic ‘Victory or Death’ letter penned by Lt. Col. William Barret Travis while besieged in the Alamo."

Carisa Lopez, political director of the leftist nonprofit Texas Freedom Network (which describes itself as the “state’s watchdog for monitoring far-right issues, organizations, money and leaders”), reacted to the latest vote by the board in expected ironic fashion:
"When it comes to writing curriculum standards for our kids’ schools, it’s painfully clear that the personal beliefs of politicians on the state board matter more than what countless historians and teachers have told them is factually true. Rather than teaching the truth, too many board members stubbornly mislead students on fundamental facts from our nation’s history. Texas kids deserve a lot better than a politicized version of history that fuels so many of the divisions in our country today."
Bless Her Heart....

He Said What????


Holder Issues Direct Warning to Trump Admin — 
‘Any Attempt to Remove Mueller Will Not Be Tolerated’ 

Of all the people in the last presidential administration who should keep their #@*&$! mouth shut, it's Eric Holder. If there were any justice in this country, this man at the least would be in jail for lying to congress, selective enforcement of federal law, involvement in massive government corruption......or be shot for treason.  But now he is boldly issuing a not so veiled threat if Trump tries to can Robert Mueller. If anything, Trump’s election was a repudiation of Obama and all he and Holder stood for. And yet, here’s Eric Holder acting like he’s the moral authority in this country. Pretty bold for someone who thought they were ABOVE THE LAW. 

It’s hard for any rational person to make the argument against disbanding this Mueller special counsel.  It's clear that there was no collusion and the investigation has been hopelessly compromised. We now know that Mueller had people on his team who not only hate Trump but appear to have been actively working against Trump since 2016 from their positions of power.  Someone needs to remind the thugs from the Obama years that they are no longer in power. They have no authority to say what will or will not be tolerated. That's no longer their choice. 

Sounds like maybe Eric is getting nervous what might be said or come to light should people in the DOJ and FBI start to turn.

Where's the falling pianos when you need one.....

I Have To Admit, I'm Really Enjoying Watching All These Creepy Uppity Leftist Get Eaten By Their Own


The Washington Post media reporter Paul Farhi broke the news on Tuesday that NPR senior vice president for news Michael Oreskes was accused of inappropriately kissing two women on the lips while discussing job prospects in a previous job as Washington bureau chief at The New York Times. NPR suspended Oreskes.  Then NPR media reporter David Folkenflik added an internal NPR accusation from 2015 on Tuesday night’s 'All Things Considered' radio program. This morning NPR president Jarl Mohn said he asked for Oreskes to resign “because of his inappropriate behavior.” 

This accusation from 2015 is certainly embarrassing to say the least for NPR considering they took so much pride in being in the forefront of pushing the unsubstantiated sexual-harassment charges of Anita Hill against black conservative Judge Clarence Thomas in 1991 when it looked like he would be comfortably confirmed to the Supreme Court.  On top of that, Jill Abramson, a prominent NY Times reporter in the Hill-Thomas hearings who also wrote a book on the attempted media lynching of Thomas was fully aware of Oreskes' actions while at the Times, but chose to remain silent. So much for feminist advocacy, eh?

The left continues to expose itself (pun intended) as the hypocrites we have always known they are, while by the light of the fire they join in on an orgy of eating their own. Meanwhile, better make some more popcorn......

Prosecuting Blasphemy


The notion it’s possible that men and women could have biological differences that could make them more inclined to pursue certain career paths shouldn't sound anymore controversial then women are more inclined to sit when they pee then men. But James Damore is not the first person to lose his job for suggesting such a idea. 


In 2005, Harvard University President Lawrence Summers was forced to resign after suggesting “innate differences” between men and women could be one possible explanation for the gender gap in the sciences. Earlier this year, Paul Griffiths, Warren Professor of Catholic Theology at Duke University, was compelled to resign after questioning the value of diversity training in an email.

Is it appropriate to treat the suggestion of the idea as blasphemy? It is right when the Idea conflicts with one's religious faith, and that is what Social Justice has become to many people.  As more and more institutions and businesses are either led by or fear intimidation by SJW, there is an extremely intense, fundamental social justice religion that's taking over and is prosecuting blasphemy, and this is where we are. Scientifically accurate or not.

Tennessee Pokes a Finger in the Eye of Political Correctness


Looks like the Tennessee Legislature has suddenly grown a pair, and has struck a blow against PC on behalf of the citizens of the state. First  they cut taxes in a big way, then passed a bill that will allow the faculty of the University of Tennessee to carry weapons on campus. And then then went on to defunded the University of Tennessee's “Office of Diversity”. 
Thursday, lawmakers voted on a final version of the bill to defund the UT Office of Diversity and Inclusion. A conference committee finalized a version of the bill that defunds the office for one year. The more than $430,000 will instead fund scholarships for minority engineering students.
And the response from some of the faculty and UT snowflakes was as expected.
This bill caused an uproar at UT Knoxville, with thousands of students and professors walking out of class earlier this week. 
The bill's sponsor says the legislation was in response to diversity office programming like sex week and suggestions that students use non-gender specific pronouns and not mention or observe anything religious when celebrating winter holidays.
"This legislation is a warning shot across the bough to the administration at UT," said bill sponsor Rep. Micah Van Huss.  In some ways we could have done a whole lot more with this legislation." He warned if the UT office did not "get its act together" he would bring similar legislation in the future....."
This all comes on the heels of the university, beginning in the fall semester, revamping charging for faculty and staff parking through a tiered, equitable pay structure. The new employee parking payment structure has four cost levels and is based on an employee’s annual compensation.

No word yet whether the White Male faculty members will be charged an extra "Sir Charge" in the name of gender equality.

History be Damned: New Orleans Historical Monuments Are Officially Coming Down

 We've got 99 Problems and Lee Circle Ain’t One of Them



The Scourge of the Landrieu Family Continues.

The Hayride
The New Orleans City Council voted 6-1 yesterday to remove four historical monuments in the city: Robert E Lee Circle, PGT Beauregard’s City Park statue, the Jefferson Davis monument and the Liberty Place monument.
Mayor Mitch Landrieu first requested the proposal back in June after the AME Charleson Church shooting.  At the time, Landrieu said he wanted to hold a “60-day discussion period” so that residents could converse about the four monuments on the chopping block. The Landrieu administration knew that they had the votes to remove all four monuments before even proposing the idea. 
Also, the Mayor’s administration apparently has been looking into warehouse spaces and construction companies to remove the monuments since August, even though the “60-day discussion period” was not over.
Mitch Landrieu and his merry band of PC History Jihadist 
Councilman Jared Brossett compared the monuments to the “Berlin wall,” while Councilwoman Susan Guidry said she and others were “justifiably offended” by the monuments.
Councilwoman Latoya Cantrell and Councilwoman Stacy Head, however, felt differently. Cantrell said she felt “disrespected” by Landrieu for proposing the idea with no input from residents or the City Council. Councilman Jason Williams, though, said that other council-members should not be “too upset” with the Landrieu administration for bringing up the issue.
As predicted, a federal lawsuit was filed immediately following the New Orleans City Council’s 6-1 vote on the matter by a group of historical preservationists.
Cantrell also took a major issue with the fact that Landrieu suddenly got an anonymous donor to pay for the removal of the monuments. Cantrell said she and the residents of New Orleans deserved to know who was behind removal of the monuments.
Now that four of the most historical monuments in the city are getting the axe, other monuments, street names and landmarks are on the chopping block next.  Back in September, the Hayride reported exclusively about how the city’s most prominent statue of Andrew Jackson in Jackson Square could be the next to go for the Landrieu administration. And it turns out, that’s correct. In a press conference yesterday, Landrieu said that monument removal of Lee Circle was just the beginning, a hint that Andrew Jackson could be next.
Statue of Andrew Jackson - 7th President of the United States - Deemed Offensive
And it’s looking more likely for all of these monuments and landmarks to get the axe by Landrieu as well. Besides monuments and landmarks, the Landrieu administration may soon be taking on the task of renaming a slew of street names. There’s really no telling where the Landrieu administration will stop with the removal of history in the city, meaning this could go as far as renaming a number of prominent Catholic street names as well.

Missouri President Tim Wolfe Just Plain Wimped Out

Image by Dianny @ PatriotRetort

  You would have thought someone wiped out
an entire Indian village.

FSJ -  A black student government member was called a nigger: “he was walking with a friend to get cookies Friday night when a red pickup truck slowed and young people screamed the n-word at him.” There is no indication that the people in the pickup were or were not students at the University of Missouri, but the alleged incident happened near, but not on the campus, and the "Columbia Police Department do not have a report of that nature by the offended party, according to a spokesperson there". Dr Wolfe apparently didn’t express sufficient outrage, but he would have no authority at all over an incident which did not happen on campus.  But for the Social Justice Warriors, the responsibility for any offensive act must be pushed up to the nearest high ranking normal white male.

Jonathan Butler, a student, began a hunger strike, because he did not like what he saw as the culture at the University; one of his demands was that President Wolfe resign.

Was Dr Wolfe a decent President for the University? I really don’t know, but his job performance wasn’t bad enough for the Board of Curators to have met about it prior to the “strike” by the black players on the Missouri football team; that got some attention. How Dr Wolfe was supposed to be responsible for the actions of some people, who may or may not have even been Missouri students, in a red pickup is beyond me. but, for the SJWs, apparently he is. How Dr Wolfe is in any way responsible for the death of Michael Brown, 116 miles away, or would have any knowledge about the events beyond what the rest of us can read in the media, escapes me completely.

But, he’s apparently a heterosexual white male, and that makes him responsible for the acts of other people who are not under his authority, and thus he had to go! Considering that he was unwilling to fight for his position, perhaps he really should have resigned.

Nevertheless, this incident shows just how poorly American colleges are preparing students for the real world. Payton Head, the Student Government president who had been called the horrible “n” word, will eventually be graduated and have to leave Mizzou to begin a career in the business world, and there won’t be any university president to blame when the next red pickup drives past and someone yells offensive stuff to him. He’ll have to just man up and get on with his life. When he finds himself competing with other people to move up the corporate ladder, to get that next promotion, if he is unable to simply disregard insults, if he gets all flustered and upset, he won’t be able to compete to the best of his ability, and he will fall behind. 

That’s life in the real world! Whining and bitching and complaining does not get you ahead; in the end, it gets you left behind.

Professor Greets Incoming Class of Precious Snowflakes with Speech Crushing Their PC Beliefs

IJRMike Adams, a professor at the University of North Carolina-Wilmington is not your stereotypical left-wing teacher. On the heels of a report that showed that liberal arts professors overwhelmingly support Democrats, Adams’ semester-opening statement to his students, first printed in Townhall in late August has gone viral.

North Carolina-Wilmington Professor Mike Adams

(Trigger warning: The following is extraordinarily insensitive and its candor may cause some students to be highly offended. Symptoms of being confronted with viewpoints other than one’s own may cause one to get “the vapors” and students have even been known to collapse in a fainting spell upon reading offensive literature. Reader discretion is advised.)
"Welcome back to class, students! 
I am Mike Adams your criminology professor here at UNC-Wilmington. Before we get started with the course I need to address an issue that is causing problems here at UNCW and in higher education all across the country. I am talking about the growing minority of students who believe they have a right to be free from being offended. If we don’t reverse this dangerous trend in our society there will soon be a majority of young people who will need to walk around in plastic bubble suits to protect them in the event that they come into contact with a dissenting viewpoint. That mentality is unworthy of an American. It’s hardly worthy of a Frenchman.
Let’s get something straight right now. You have no right to be unoffended. You have a right to be offended with regularity. It is the price you pay for living in a free society. If you don’t understand that you are confused and dangerously so. In part, I blame your high school teachers for failing to teach you basic civics before you got your diploma. Most of you went to the public high schools, which are a disaster. Don’t tell me that offended you. I went to a public high school.
Of course, your high school might not be the problem. It is entirely possible that the main reason why so many of you are confused about free speech is that piece of paper hanging on the wall right over there. Please turn your attention to that ridiculous document that is framed and hanging by the door. In fact, take a few minutes to read it before you leave class today. It is our campus speech code. It specifically says that there is a requirement that everyone must only engage in discourse that is “respectful.” That assertion is as ludicrous as it is illegal. I plan to have that thing ripped down from every classroom on campus before I retire.
One of my grandfathers served in World War I. My step-grandfather served in World War II. My sixth great grandfather enlisted in the American Revolution when he was only thirteen. These great men did not fight so we could simply relinquish our rights to the enemy within our borders. That enemy is the Marxists who run our public universities. If you are a Marxist and I just offended you, well, that’s tough. I guess they don’t make communists like they used to.
Unbelievably, a student once complained to the Department chairwoman that my mention of God and a Creator was a violation of Separation of Church and State. Let me be as clear as I possibly can: If any of you actually think that my decision to paraphrase the Declaration of Independence in the course syllabus is unconstitutional then you suffer from severe intellectual hernia.
Indeed, it takes hard work to become stupid enough to think the Declaration of Independence is unconstitutional. If you agree with the student who made that complaint then you are probably just an anti-religious zealot. Therefore, I am going to ask you to do exactly three things and do them in the exact order that I specify.
First, get out of my class. You can fill out the drop slip over at James Hall. Just tell them you don’t believe in true diversity and you want to be surrounded by people who agree with your twisted interpretation of the Constitution simply because they are the kind of people who will protect you from having your beliefs challenged or your feelings hurt.
Second, withdraw from the university. If you find that you are actually relieved because you will no longer be in a class where your beliefs might be challenged then you aren’t ready for college. Go get a job building houses so you can work with some illegal aliens who will help you gain a better appreciation of what this country has to offer.
Finally, if this doesn’t work then I would simply ask you to get the hell out of the country. The ever-growing thinned-skinned minority you have joined is simply ruining life in this once-great nation. Please move to some place like Cuba where you can enjoy the company of communists and get excellent health care. Just hop on a leaky boat and start paddling your way towards utopia. You will not be missed."
Earlier this year, Adams won a court victory against the school, when he sued, asserting that he was not promoted due to his outspoken conservatism.

Why Politically Correct Social Sciences and Social Scientists are Pitiful, Laughable and Absurd

Hi-jacking Anthropology for the Pleasure of Race-baiters, 
Radical Feminist and Global Warming Hoaxers


by Robert Lindsay

It seems cruel to say that most social sciences are jokes and most social scientists are clowns, but that’s really the sad and painful, even heartbreaking, truth.

Generally speaking, most social scientists are not even practicing science anyway. They just say they are. I do not know what they are practicing. Maybe politics, ideology or propaganda. Most social scientists are ideologues of some sort or another. It’s pretty hard to find a rational. And what is stunning about these social scientist retards is that they are always going on and on about:
“Our science has proved this! Our science has proved that! You’re anti-scientific!”
Many social science paradigms are simply (usually PC) “facts” that are accepted by everyone mostly because they are politically correct and not because they are grounded in any facts. Usually there is a grain of truth in there somewhere, but still the paradigms are more about ideology than science. If you examine a lot of these paradigms, they fall apart, often immediately and obviously, and really any commonsense Joe on the street would laugh.

The social scientists then yell that the man on the street knows nothing compared to the anointed scientists of the field. Social science often appropriates the real sciences, usually for political and emotional reasons. If any man on the street rejects whatever the latest stupid PC paradigm is, the social scientists will appropriate real science and argue, for instance, that no way does the man on the street know more about astronomy than astronomers.

But we aren’t talking about real sciences. We are talking about the PC fake sciences called social sciences. So you can see that social scientists throw themselves in with the real scientists and marry their field to the real scientists’ one whenever it is convenient for them. Nevertheless, social scientists spend a good amount of time engaging in sheer nihilism. 

Emotions run wild in the social sciences. While scientists are supposed to be emotionally constrained at least in their published statements, social scientists seem to be a lot less controlled, and language in debates is often excessively harsh for proper scientific debate, but as no one is practicing science anyway, who really cares what they think!

Same Group That Sees the Word “American” as Problematic Urges Schools to Ban ‘Boy’ and ‘Girl’

 And Why Should We Change Anything for a Handful of Freaks?

Prison Planet

The biggest gay rights lobby group in the United States has called on schools to eliminate “gender stereotypes” by training staff to avoid using the words “boy” and “girl” in class.

A new back to school guide published by the Human Rights Campaign designed to make classrooms “gender inclusive” urges teachers to “avoid using gender to divide and address students” so as to prevent any transgender students from becoming upset.

“Instead of addressing your class using “boys” and “girls,” try something new. Words like “friends,” “students” or “scholars” allow all students to feel included, expand student vocabulary and model inclusive language and behavior for other students and teachers,” states the guide.

Asking students to identify as male or female on paperwork is also vehemently discouraged, with the guide encouraging schools to, “consider adding a third write-in option for those who have non-binary gender identities.”

A link to another resource shows a ‘gender inclusive registration form’ which gives children the option to pick their own “gender preferred pronoun.” The guide also urges schools not to include the words “mother” or “father” on any forms in case someone is offended.

 
Teachers are also encouraged to take advantage of “teachable moments” where they can explain to children why a student may have “two moms” or two dads, and how not just a man and a woman are capable of having a baby. The guide also advises teachers not to restrict certain activities to one gender, for example by encouraging boys to take part in girls’ dance lessons.

Just Goes to Show How Easy It Is For Blacks To Feign Outrage Over Just About Anything

Recently a popular magazine ran an article about hair styles for summer. Depicted in the story was a white girl wearing a hair style that set off the black women on that sewer known as Tumblr,  and lit up "Black Twitter" calling out the tutorial for being racially insensitive. 

In this day and age, certain minorities just look for a reason to be outraged at what they refer to as cultural appropriation. They called the hair style, one made increasingly popular in the past by movie stars such as a young Meg Ryan, an appropriation of their black culture. 
"It is not cool for white women to wear black hairstyles. It is not cute. It is not flattering. When white women wear black hairstyles, it's a slap in the face to black women..." 
"There are so many reasons why it's not okay for white women to  wear styles traditionally worn by black women, including Afros, braids and dreadlocks. Black hair is not just hair. There's history and context tied to these styles that cannot be ignored, a historical legacy forever linked to the ongoing cultural remnants of slavery and institutional racism....." 
"A white person who wears these styles dismisses that context and turns black hair into a novelty, a parody, a subtle form of blackface." 
Bitches Please! 

The hair style worn in the picture is 'Corkscrew Curls', or as they call it these days, a 'Twist Out'. It is a style once not uncommon to women throughout history with coarse hair and natural curls, and popular with many young girls I've known of Jewish heritage. The style goes back to ancient times. IT'S NOT AN AFRO!

As for cornrows, the first depiction of this hair style is from the art of the Sumerian and Akkadian cultures, both older civilizations than the High Egyptians (who BTW were a mixed race culture, not black). And hair braids are depicted in the oldest art of almost every culture in the world.  As for dreadlocks, you should read this

Most modern African American cultural references for the most part are inventions of 1960's anti-European Afro-centric scholars who managed to connect anything and everything to slavery and racism. Their lies and propaganda have made it into higher learning by that great institution of affirmative action. 

So now, my outraged protectors of black culture, explain this to me....

Jay Z's Breeder Beyonce Knowles and the Butt Ugly Talentless Nicki Minaj
Funny, I have never heard anyone complain white culture is being hi-jacked by these people, wearing their colored and straighten white hair styles and  French designed clothing.  Should I be equally outraged at these displays as disrespecting my race and culture?

No, because I understand well that the average black women is at a disadvantage, seeing most of the male species of all races generally find black females physically unattractive. 

As for why any white women would want to wear cornrows or dreadlocks is beyond me. They look clownish and incredibly nasty. Yeah, I said it!  And as for my 2 cents on the matter, your silly outrage over hair styles can be reserved for your black culture's own internal consumption, and for your white PC friends who bow at your every disgust with America, because I think it's just more racist nonsense.

Judge Orders Cancellation of Redskins Trademark

Political Correctness Marches On


The Federal Government has now positioned itself for regulating whose speech is acceptable and whose isn’t. 

Fox DC
ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) -- For the first time in a legal battle that has stretched over 20 years, a federal judge on Wednesday ordered the cancellation of the Washington Redskins' trademark registration, ruling that the team name may be disparaging to Native Americans.
The ruling does not bar the team from using the Redskins name if it wishes. The team could even still sue for trademark infringement, but winning such a case could prove more complex without the legal protections that come with a federally registered trademark.
Redskins President Bruce Allen said the team will appeal.
"We are convinced that we will win because the facts and the law are on the side of our franchise that has proudly used the name Redskins for more than 80 years," Allen said in a statement.
U.S. District Judge Gerald Bruce Lee's ruling upholds an earlier finding by an administrative appeal board and orders the federal Patent and Trademark Office to cancel the registration. A group of Native American activists first challenged the trademark registration in 1992, and various administrative boards have ruled against the team before. But Wednesday's order is the first time that a federal judge ruled against the team and found that the name may be disparaging.

His Opinion Isn't Valid Because He's White and Rich

One of MSNBC's in-house progtards, the lovely Alex Wagner, along with her three liberal guests, ripped Jerry Seinfeld on her MSNBC program for his blast at "creepy" political correctness. Wagner hinted that Seinfeld had "fallen behind the times."  

That was the que that it was off to the races (pun intended):
New York magazine's Annie Lowrey mocked his critique: "I kind of roll my eyes at Jerry Seinfeld. You know, he's a billionaire – like I don't feel sorry for him if people don't laugh hard enough at his jokes.. So, you know, I really think that – that PC culture owes a lot to social media, where, all of a sudden, people – in this case, college kids – can say – hey! You know, I was a young gay person – and I constantly had to hear jokes like this, and it's really not cool.  
Bloomberg Politics's Dave Weigel remarked: "no one wants to think they've stopped being cool or they stopped being relevant – or especially, that they – that they're now a bigot because they believe something they've always believed. There is no down side; there is no social pressure backlash for Jerry Seinfeld here. He still has all of his cars – the gigantic fleet of cars. "I think he's made $820 million in his career. So,the exile will be comfortable."  
MSNBC's Dorian Warren attacked the comedian:  "I think it's so cheap and easy to be able to insult people who are socially marginalized....you're afraid to be criticized, because you can't come up with funny jokes that don't insult people."  (News Busters)
But when it comes to political correctness, as in talking about race, only whites are the holy grail of fodder. Anyone who is unfortunate to land on a black television network comedy show will regularly hear routines about Crazy White people,  like this.....

Obama Knowingly Perpetuates the Falsehoods About the Canadian Keystone XL Pipeline

by Robert Janicki

In President Obama's last press conference of 2014, he once again misstated the elements of the Keystone XL Pipeline Project. Obama continued the canard that the project would only create a nominal number of American jobs, when median estimates are that 20,000 high paying jobs would be created in the two plus years of the construction phase of the pipeline.  Additional tens of thousands of permanent jobs would be created in the refineries and the oil by products market for further manufacturing and consumer end use.  It's estimated that close to a million jobs throughout the economy could be created as a result of the crude oil flowing into the United States through the XL Pipeline.  

Obama then further pushed the prevarication that the tar sands oil from Canada would simply pass through America to the Gulf Coast, only to be exported to the world market and thus would have no impact on gasoline prices in America.  That is an absolute lie and Obama knows it.  For forty years it has been illegal to export crude oil.  Now, that is not to say that refined products can't be exported.  However, the State Department analysis indicated that the results of the Keystone pipeline will not affect the export trend for refined oil products.   It is estimated that less than 10% of the thousands or so oil based products refined along the Gulf Coast will be for export, which is consistent with current export practices.

TransCanada (TC), the builder/operator of the proposed Keystone XL Pipeline is an oil pipeline transportation business.   TC has no financial ownership in anything, but the pipeline, as owner/operators.  TC does not own any of the tar sands oil to be shipped through its pipeline to the Gulf Coast.  The tar sands oil is going to be sold to the Gulf Coast refineries in Texas and Louisiana by the Canadian oil producers.  Valero, in Port Arthur, Texas, is the largest refinery along the Gulf Coast, along with many others, and the company is the world's largest independent refiner with other refineries in the United States, Canada and the UK.  

Valero currently processes approximately 3 million barrels of crude oil per day.  Valero is also one of the largest retailers of gasoline in the United States along with selling to independent gasoline retailers.  The TC pipeline will expand Valero's access to the crude oil supply in greater volumes economically unachievable by importing with ocean going oil tankers.  This is also true with the other oil refineries along the Gulf Coast, which will be purchasing the tar sands crude oil from the Canadian oil producing companies.

President Obama either has no idea how the world oil market works or how it is related to the ultimate price of gasoline in the United States.  The Canadian tar sands oil will be principally processed into gasoline and refined into its many byproducts, by the many oil refineries around the Gulf Coast.  It is yet to be determined where these finished products will find their end use, but the estimates are that the gasoline will enter the domestic American market along with the majority of byproducts.

In the final analysis all the Canadian tar sand oil products produced in the Gulf Coast refineries will contribute to the global market supply and will be priced according to global consumer demand.  The more oil products that are produced, including gasoline, will increase the global supply and thus reduce the global market price relative to the shrinking global demand.  As we have seen at the gas pump, the world oil products markets are currently experiencing an oversupply relative to demand, thus bringing down the price to the consumer, wherever that consumer is located.  Cheap and abundant fossil fuels are what made America the great industrial dynamo that it is today.  If America expects to maintain that same position in the world economy, it must continue to produce adequate supplies of crude oil and natural gas to match the demands placed upon our industrial base.

So, why is Obama doing everything possible to see to it that the XL Pipeline project never sees approval?  The answer is simple.  It does not fit the liberal model of control of as much of the economy as possible.  Warren Buffett, wealthy supporter of the Obama administration and other things liberal, will stand to lose money with his ownership interest in the BNSF railroad, which currently is the primary transportation means for the trickle of Canadian oil entering the U.S. refining.  

The other liberal constituencies that oppose the XL Pipeline Project, are a collective assortment of enviro-Nazis groups that oppose all forms of fossil fuels and the evil producers they consider are working against Mother Earth. These groups are major financial supporters of the Democrat Party and have a lot of power in the Obama administration.

Every analysis and assessment that has been made on the pipeline project has indicated no significant adverse affects on the environment, while indicating the economic benefits could be substantial.  Obama knows this, but has chosen to deny the facts in order to satisfy a very powerful Democrat constituency that funds Democrat candidates.

Ready for Eric Holder 2.0?

Look for one of the first duties, hopefully after the president gets through licking his wounds from mid-term election results, is to send his nomination to the hill for replacement of the corrupt out going Attorney General, Eric Holder.  Speculation is it will be Thomas Perez, the present Secretary of Labor.  Yeah, the same Labor Dept. that gave us phony job numbers before the 2012 election, and almost unbelievable fairytale numbers just in time for the 2014 mid-terms. Imagine that!

He's a perfect tool for Obama's upcoming assault on America's Immigration Laws and enforcement on the states.  Look for a swift attempt at confirmation while Democrats still hold chairmanship of committees in the Senate. 

Below is my post from March 2013 when Mr. Perez was up for conformation for the Labor Dept.  It says all that needs to be said: it need not be re-written. 

More Rot From the Inside
03/13/2013

Keeping with his theme of rotting America from the inside, Obama plans to move another dose of leftist disease into a more powerful administration position:

Meet Thomas Perez.


Dear Leader has tapped this radical leftist lawyer Perez to be the next Secretary Of Labor.  This douche is now an assistant attorney general at the U.S. Department of Justice. Yeah, Eric Holder's D.O.J. Here's a little background on Mr. Perez:

from The American Thinker
"Perez led the Obama administration's assault on voter ID laws last year. As John Fund and Hans von Spakovsky report in Who's Counting, as a member of the Montgomery County, Md., Council in 2003 he also tried to force governments to accept fraud-prone matricula consular ID cards issued by Mexican consular offices. He was a board member of Casa de Maryland, an advocacy group for illegal aliens funded by George Soros and the recently deceased Hugo Chavez.
Under Perez, the DOJ Civil Rights Division has refused to prosecute hate crimes committed against white Americans. He was reportedly instrumental in the Justice Department's dismissal of a case involving two Philadelphia-based members of the New Black Panther Party who intimidated white voters on Election Day 2008....." 
More about the Panther case and an interesting recently released report on other race based justice cases can be read at PJ Media:
"Perez is apparently in favor of Saudi-style anti-blasphemy laws. In Saudi Arabia and other Islamic countries offenders can be condemned to death merely for insulting Islam. Amazingly, at a congressional hearing last year, Perez pointedly declined to rule out bringing such laws to the United States. At the July 27, 2012, meeting of the House Judiciary Committee's subcommittee on the Constitution, Perez refused to say whether he would uphold the religious speech protections in the First Amendment in the future. 
Perez, like so many Obama administration officials, believes that America is a seething hotbed of "Islamophobia," filled with ignorant racist rubes who irrationally fear the Muslim religion. He has worked with hardcore Islamist groups such as the terrorist-linked Islamic Society of North America and applauded Islamists for lobbying against airline security measures...." Read More  
Islamic radical friendly, advocate for illegals, doesn't believe in equal protection under the law for all races, educated in the nest of leftist worms called Harvard Law.......yeah, he should fit right in and be in a more powerful cabinet position in which to influence the rotting away from within agenda for America that is well underway.
