The games liberals play

June 28th, 2012 No comments

For over a hundred years psychologists have attempted to explain aspects of human behavior through observation of animals in controlled environments.

When liberals do this, e.g., “I saw a male penguin diddling another male penguin, therefore homosexuality must be natural,” they call it SCIENCE. (Usually with much fanfare, but this is a simple blog, so all-caps will have to suffice.)

When a conservative turns the tables, as in this Internet post

The Food Stamp Program, administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, is proud to be distributing the greatest amount of free meals and food stamps ever.

Meanwhile, the National Park Service, administered by the U.S. Department of the Interior, asks us to, “Please do not feed the animals.”

Their stated reason for the policy is because the animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves.

This ends today’s lesson.

liberals cry foul, accusing conservatives of being indecent and incompassionate.

When you have no real point to make, it’s far simpler and easier to resort to the ad hominem rather than developing a substantive argument.

In most discussions of the problems of American public schools, the low intellectual quality of people who come out of our schools of education is the 800-pound gorilla that keeps getting ignored. Such teachers cannot give their students intellectual abilities that they themselves don’t have.

They left something out…

June 19th, 2012 No comments

Reuters reports that JCPenney stock dropped 8.5% today, which comes on the heels of an 18.9% drop in sales.

In February, J.C. Penney introduced a new pricing scheme that largely did away with coupons and hundreds of sales events shoppers had come to expect, in favor of everyday prices. It launched an advertising campaign featuring comedian Ellen DeGeneres to coincide with the new approach.

The ads were hailed as hip, but critics faulted them for failing to explain the new pricing approach clearly enough. The company last month acknowledged that the ads had resulted in the loss of some longtime Penney shoppers who had looked for markdowns.

Somehow overlooked is the fact that coinciding with the pricing change was a new direction for the company—aggressively pushing a pro-homosexual agenda with DeGeneres at the forefront and conspicuously gay male models in the latest catalogs and ads. Who makes up the bulk of JCP’s customers? Families. Natural families, as in mom and dad. Guess who tend to have traditional, Biblical, conservative moral values and are increasingly tired of having the LGBT agenda shoved in their faces? Natural families, as in mom and dad.

Coincidence? Time will tell.

Obama Blows It

June 8th, 2012 No comments

“She doesn’t go all the way down.”

That must be the single most vulgar, disrespectful thing I have ever heard any man say regarding his wife. Our president…in public.…for a laugh.

Mr. Obama, there was a time when I might have been persuaded you were a nice enough guy who just has all the wrong ideas. But how could a loving husband and father disrespect his wife—his daughters’ mother—so glibly and unabashedly? Is this what you want for your girls when they grow up and marry—public jokes from their own husbands about their oral sex skills?

In this vile turn your immense narcissism has reached a new low. Until this you were simply a failed President. Now you are a disgrace to the office and the nation you purportedly serve.
