White House Adviser Disses Liberal Bloggers

12 October, 2009

What I got out of this attack on the Liberal bloggers:  Everyone must agree with Our Dark Overlord and not criticize him!  Free thought and speech will not be tolerated!  Liberals must remain the mouthpiece for ODO and never question ODO!

…The sad thing is, most Liberal bloggers are so brain dead that they will either ignore this attack on them or resort to making excuses for their Overlord:

Liberal bloggers are up in arms over a reported jab from a White House adviser.

The uproar began this weekend when NBC’s John Harwood, after reporting on a gay rights march in Washington, relayed a dismissive quote from an anonymous administration official.

“And for a sign of how seriously the White House does or doesn’t take this opposition one adviser told me today those bloggers need to take off their pajamas, get dressed and realize that governing a closely divided country is complicated and difficult,” Harwood said.

Though the quote seemed to refer to the “internet left” in general, many bloggers are taking the quote as an affront to the gay activists, who are already angry with the president for not pushing hard enough for LGBT issues.

Speaking to the Human Rights Campaign on Saturday, Obama pledged to repeal the ban on gays in the military and push to repeal the Defense of Marriage Act, two issues where gay activists think the administration has dragged its feet.

“I wonder how the Human Rights Campaign is going to explain how the White House just knifed our community less than 24 hours after he went to their dinner and claimed he was our friend,” wrote AMERICAblog’s John Aravosis.

Schwarzenegger Goes Back to his Nazi Roots: Signs Law Requiring Ammo Vendors to Record Buyers’ Personal Information

CALIFORNIA´S GOVERNOR SIGNS LEGISLATION TO HELP TRACK AMMUNITION SALES

Sacramento, CA – Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger signed into law legislation that will help law enforcement officials track down and apprehend armed criminals and other prohibited persons. AB 962 by Assembly Member Kevin DeLeon (D-Los Angeles) had the support of law enforcement officials from across the state and was modeled after successful city ordinances, including the cities of Sacramento and Los Angeles. AB 962 was the Brady Campaign´s top priority bill in this year´s legislature.

The law requires maintenance of purchaser records by handgun ammunition vendors. Local law enforcement can use these records to find illegal guns.

“The purchase records will provide our police officers with yet another tool to track down and apprehend armed and dangerous criminals,” said Paul Helmke, President of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence.

Repackaged slightly, but still the same old and tired, “Do it for the children,” mantra that has worked so well in the past to slowly strip away our rights as U.S. citizens.  The rest of the article was just a propaganda piece for the Brady Campaign.  If you really must, you can read the rest of this fascist dribble by CLICKING HERE.

Happy Columbus Day…Unless You are a Libtardian

More destruction of America’s historical figures and indoctrination of the youth by the godless Libtardians:

Darker side of Columbus taught in US classrooms
Many will not observe holiday

TAMPA, Fla. – Jeffrey Kolowith’s kindergarten students read a poem about Christopher Columbus, take a journey to the New World on three paper ships, and place the explorer’s picture on a timeline through history.

Kolowith’s students learn about the explorer’s significance, but they also come away with a more nuanced picture of Columbus than the noble discoverer often portrayed in pop culture and legend.

[“Nuanced,” you say?  Is that what we are calling it today?  Back in my day, they called it, “Libtard-Commie agenda-driven indoctrination of the youth in order to destroy America and her culture.”  But, I guess that was too many words for the kids coming out of such institutes of lower learning and had to be condensed to “nuanced.” ]

“I talk about the situation where he didn’t even realize where he was,’’ Kolowith said. “And we talked about how he was very, very mean, very bossy.’’

[He was the LEADER of an expedition, idiot!  What?  Do you really think democracy works on a boat?  Get a clue, moron!  If he wasn’t so “bossy,” he would have been forced by his men to turn back long before hitting the New World.  Freakin’ idiots.]

Columbus’s stature in US classrooms has declined somewhat through the years, and many districts will not observe his namesake holiday today. Although lessons vary, many teachers are trying to present a more balanced perspective of what happened after Columbus reached the Caribbean and the suffering of indigenous populations.

“The whole terminology has changed,’’ said James Kracht, executive associate dean for academic affairs in the Texas A&M College of Education and Human Development. “You don’t hear people using the world ‘discovery’ anymore like they used to. ‘Columbus discovers America.’ Because how could he discover America if there were already people living here?’’

[Yes, how could man  have “discovered” fire, or anything which has already existed, for that matter? —What load of moronic BS.]

In Texas, students start learning in the fifth grade about the “Columbian Exchange,’’ which consisted not only of gold, crops, and goods shipped back and forth across the Atlantic Ocean, but also of diseases carried by settlers that decimated native populations.

In McDonald, Pa., 30 miles southwest of Pittsburgh, fourth-grade students at Fort Cherry Elementary put Columbus on trial this year, charging him with misrepresenting the Spanish crown and thievery. They found him guilty and sentenced him to life in prison.

[What type of crap is that?  Why didn’t they just give him the death penalty and be done with it?  Oh, yeah.  I almost forgot;  Libtardians only believe in killing innocent babies…]
