What the Left Hopes to Achieve by Attacking the Founders

What the Left Hopes to Achieve by Attacking the Founders:

"Our nation’s leftist progressives have long sought to undermine the American values expressed in our Declaration of Independence and Constitution.

Though typical Democrats and Republicans do not have this leftist hate for our nation, they have been willing accomplices in undermining the most basic value the Founding Fathers sought to promote—limited government."

Michigan resisting challenge to ban on straight-party voting | State-region | petoskeynews.com
DETROIT (AP) — The results of the 2016 election are being replayed in federal court as the state of Michigan defends a Republican-backed law that would abolish straight-party voting, an easy ballot option that's especially popular in urban areas that go Democratic.
Image result for straight-party votingThe law was suspended last year by a judge who said an end to straight-party ballots could cause long lines and place a disproportionate burden on black voters. 
Now, after months of analysis by experts, that same judge must decide whether the lawsuit should go to trial or be dismissed in favor of the state.
Straight-party voting is the act of making a single mark on a ballot to pick candidates of one party, from president to county commissioner. It's been in practice for more than 100 years in Michigan and is widely held in urban areas; Detroit's rate was 80 percent in 2016.
...Only a handful of states allow straight-party voting. 
Barton said it's implausible that more than 40 states that don't offer it have violated the U.S. Constitution "without anyone noticing...."

Philosophy Professor Tells Bisexual Student Who Criticized Islam 'We're Not Going to Let You Damage the Program' - Hit & Run : Reason.com

Philosophy Professor Tells Bisexual Student Who Criticized Islam 'We're Not Going to Let You Damage the Program' - Hit & Run : Reason.com
Image result for student brainwashing"A bisexual male student at the University of Texas–San Antonio said during an informal conversation outside class that he was uncomfortable with Islam because people still receive the death penalty for being gay in 10 Muslim-majority countries.
For expressing this thought, the student—Alfred MacDonald, who no longer attends the school—was instructed to meet with the chair of the philosophy department, Eve Browning. Prof. Browning told MacDonald in no uncertain terms that he had committed the crime of "offending" someone, and she warned him that his habit of saying what he thinks could bring down the entire program. 
She threatened to call the Behavior Intervention Team and refer MacDonald to counseling. She did everything but send him to Room 101.
Unfortunately for Browning, MacDonald secretly recorded their conversation. 
The transcript, first publicized by Gay Star News, is incredible.
"We have not designed our program to tolerate these behaviors," Brown tells MacDonald at one point. Later she adds, "We're not going to let you damage the program."..."

“If you have Christianity, a capitalistic society, and a Constitution that protects your interest,” they work for all Americans, Parker says, including blacks. BLM, she says, is indoctrinating blacks against these American values."

College investigates 'deeply offensive' photo of white man dressed as Colin Kaepernick - The College Fix:
Not because it’s racist?
"Dickinson College says it’s investigating a photo of an alleged student in a Halloween costume based on controversial and unaffiliated professional football player Colin Kaepernick.
Joyce Bylander, dean of student life, told the private Pennsylvania college community on Facebook Sunday night that she received the photo “this weekend” and it was “deeply offensive and reflected the exercise of very poor judgment.”
But she made clear that the white male’s imitation of an athlete with a white mother and black father was not the grounds for the investigation; rather, it was the appearance of a gun pointing at the alleged student..."

Will America’s Prosperity Be Completely Wiped Out By Our Growing Debt?

Will America’s Prosperity Be Completely Wiped Out By Our Growing Debt?
Image result for national debt bomb"The federal government is now 20.4 trillion dollars in debt, and most Americans don’t seem to care that the economic prosperity that we are enjoying today could be completely destroyed by our exploding national debt.  
Over the past decade, the national debt has been growing at a rate of more than 100 million dollars an hour, and this is a debt that all of us owe.  
When you break it down, each American citizen’s share of the debt is more than $60,000, and so if you have a family of five your share is more than $300,000.  
And when you throw in more than 6 trillion dollars of corporate debt and nearly 13 trillion dollars of consumer debt, it is not inaccurate to say that we are facing a crisis of unprecedented magnitude.
Debt cannot grow much faster than GDP indefinitely.  
At some point the bubble bursts, and when it does the pain that the middle class is going to experience is going to be off the charts..."

ACLJ Demands Documents on the Obama Administration’s Uranium One Nuclear Debacle | American Center for Law and Justice:

Image result for flickr commons images Nuclear Power "In 2010, the Obama administration approved the sale of a controlling stake in Uranium One, and with it, control over 20% of America’s uranium production capacity, to Rosatom, an energy conglomerate owned and controlled by the Russian government. The Russians obtained total control of Uranium One by 2013, and by extension control over a large portion of America’s strategic nuclear resources.

This approval was granted by the Committee on Foreign Investments in the United States (CFIUS).

This week, we sent legal demands to multiple agencies involved in that process to expose what the Obama Administration knew when they approved the controversial transfer in light of the fact that:"

6 charts that explain why American politics is so broken - Vox:
1) Pew splits the politically engaged public into eight groups


Pew Research CenterIn analyzing how the responses differed, Pew ended up dividing politically engaged voters into eight groups. Among Republicans, the “Core Conservatives” — traditional GOP voters — is the largest and most engaged group. “Country First Conservatives,” who we might think of as anti-immigration Trump fans, are relatively small in comparison. Then, two GOP-leaning groups that tend to get less attention in punditry are “Market Skeptic Republicans,” who stand out for their concern about the economic system favoring the powerful, and “New Era Enterprisers” (they’re pretty moderate on social issues but economically conservative).

For Democrats, meanwhile, the party’s base is represented by “Solid Liberals.” 
But Pew also concludes there are blocs of “Opportunity Democrats” (who are less concerned with discrimination and tend to have a more optimistic view of how hard work can lead to success), “Disaffected Democrats” (who think the American dream is out of reach and are generally cynical about the system), and “Devout and Diverse” (kind of a grab bag of mostly Democrat-leaning voters who are more conservative on one issue or another). Finally, there are “Bystanders” who aren’t engaged in the political process at all.

"According to reports, a new U.K. government program called Operation Constrain will offer some 20,000 extremists previously investigated by Security Service what's being described as housing "bribes," "aimed at turning them away from extremism."

"Terror suspects including jihadis returning from fighting in Syria are to be offered taxpayer-funded homes, counselling and help finding jobs to stop them carrying out attacks in Britain," reports The Daily Mail. The Islamic fanatics will jump to the top of the government-funded housing list."

The Post describes Congress as playing by different rules — a workplace where “interns have limited harassment protections under the unique employment law that Congress applies to itself” and where a special U.S. Treasury fund has been established just for settlement payouts."

Universities abandon core curriculums, offer ‘thin and patchy education,’ survey finds - The College Fix:
Image result for animal house college"A recent national survey found that a genuine, well-rounded college education is a thing of the past at many colleges and universities.
Instead, most institutions offer a patchwork of niche grad requirements that often skip over vital subjects such as history, government and economics.
Those are just some of the findings in “What Will They Learn? 2017-18” survey released this month. The ninth annual survey is conducted by the American Council of Trustees and Alumni, a nonprofit that promotes academic freedom, liberal arts and high academic standards.
The group evaluated more than 1,100 colleges and universities based on their requirements in seven “key areas of knowledge”: composition, literature, foreign language, U.S. history, economics, mathematics and science.
The results showed that 66.5 percent of the schools required only three or fewer of those subjects..."

Still waiting for a liberal media epiphany

Still waiting for a liberal media epiphany:
"An epiphany (from the ancient Greek ἐπιφάνεια, epiphaneia) is an experience of sudden and striking realization.
We voters outside the seaboard citadels of snobbery are still waiting for the Press to return from their celebrated cerebral safari and come to an obvious conclusion: the Democratic Party is the sleazebag party.  
Image result for liberal pressThe liars, the liars by omission, the sexual abusers, the Russian conspirators, and the cheaters are almost exclusively from the left. 
This makes them contented fellow travelers with our sketchy mainstream media types.
The press has long been in bed with anyone or anything liberal.
Ted Kennedy, a sozzled Weinsteiner and possible liquidator, is their type of guy – a role model for the "do as I say, ignore what I do" crowd.
Hillary Clinton is the media's kind of guy as well.  
She is, of course, the most qualified person ever to lose one kahillion emails from an illegal server while acting as secretary of donations funneled to Bill Clinton for speeches, saxophone recitals, and that oh, so personal touch he is oh, so famous for.  
Oh, and uranium, too.  
Bubba needs his uranium.
...Of course, this all goes nowhere.  
It will all go down the same memory hole as Mary Jo Kopechne.  
How could Hillary Clinton, the DNC, and Debbie Wasserman Schultz possibly
know what all those creepy lawyers they surround themselves with are up to at any given moment?  The press will nod their heads; after all, the Democrats are only human, but the Republicans, they are killers and anti-sciencers, and a lot of bad things..."
