Murder of Doctor
The shooting of the doctor in New York is a terrible act. It is also a terrible act for the media and the government to immediately assume it was "an act against women's rights." Since no one has a clue who did it, how can the anti-abortion people be blamed? I believe this is just another case of "spin" from the liberals.

The constant drum beating of media players and Democratic party operators against anything conservative or Republican is unnerving. But they did the same thing in '94 against the contract, and they lost the House and Senate! The difference was the national Republican party was united on a core set of beliefs and ideas, which were easily understood by the public. The public responded inspite of the heaviest media barrage of criticism and heckling. The problem is not really that the public doesn't care for MonicaGate, but that the Republicans have sold out their ideas hoping for better polls.If Republicans were to boldly apply conservative (and moral), ideas, (ideas they already have in their possession), to the public school crisis, social security, etc. in a simple way the public can readily understand, (as they did with the Contract), the public will back us. The news media will never have anything good to say. Forget about Monica and Whitewater being the downfall of Clinton. We need to focus on conservative ideas to solve problems. Thats what the public really wants, and that what will keep Republicans in charge!

TO THE MSNBC STAFF.......The "breaking news" on Starr is abosolutely a dirty political trick spun by the white house and the (sic) main stream media. I've never seen so much garbage put out by these clinton protectors trying to avoid the real truth. THE TRUTH IS, this is their only way to avoid the truth...and that is to attack, attack, attack and attack Starr and all the other prosecutors who are trying to do their rightful duty. Not once was this kind of garbage put forth when Nixon or North were being investigated for their crimes. Not once. The dems, libs and other supporters are leading this country to complete chaos....immorality and deceit is their delight. They love it when they see that they are getting by with it...laughing behind our backs. This includes your biased staff. Get a life...get out of your rut. Report the TRUTH as it should be reported....fully and fairly for the conviction of clinton and his cronies.

The scariest thing about liberal "thought" (and I do use that word loosely) is what I've experienced with a close liberal relative. They actually cannot even COMPREHEND logic when it disagrees with their agenda. When they are cornered by their own contradictions they simply and LOUDLY change the focus of conversation. Then what is a habitually polite conservative to do but hear them rant?By the way, they actually do think that no one on earth is as intelligent, compassionate, and sensitive as they are (with animals being the only possible exception). Rush does not exaggerate that one!

Liberal GarbageSomething most people are overlooking. The liberal Senators have been having a field day talking about "undoing what the people have done by their vote". They feel that Clinton should not be impeached because he was elected by the people. Correct me if I'm wrong, the President and the vice President are the only elective federal officials elected by the members of the Electoral College. More people voted against Clinton in both elections but the Electoral College still elected him by nearly two to one. Has there ever been a president elected by the Electoral College but not by popular vote? If so, or if that could happen, then the liberal garbage about undoing what the American people have done is just a bunch of bunk!

Liberal DictatorshipThe liberals call us scary. It is the Democrats that are scaring me. They have power because they control the media. They can control the whole country. (That is, those that don't care or bother to be informed.) The big question I have is, if they can control the polls, that are obviously inaccurate and skewed, how much longer before they control the voting results. We have already heard of reports of ballet stuffing in local areas. What is to prevent the democrats from manipulating the national elections and thereby become a dictatorship?
I feel as if we are quickly moving into a country where there is no freedom outside of the thoughts of the left wing. That is scary to me.

The politically correct point of viewAs far as an amendment repealing the 16th Amendment, do you really think that people today would support such a proposterous notion as cutting funding from the federal government? Don't you realize it is more blessed to give than to receive and that this nation is the most blessed on earth? How can you even suggest that the federal government not get its fifty percent of your income? I mean, what would you do with all that extra money if you had it? You'd probably just waste it anyway so really isn't the government doing you a favor by taking care of its money? Besides, haven't we got Social Security to save?
***Liberalism
In short Liberalism, socialism, and utopianism are a dead end, just look at the former Soviet Union. If you like their system, maybe you should move there. I like this Idea.

Conservatives and Social JusticeConservatives have been opposed to most of the advances in American life during the past one hundred years.
THE FAIR LABOR STANDARDS ACT
BEFORE: 70 hour work weeks. Child labor. Substandard wages. Company towns. Hired goons "talked sense" into employees who dared to think about joining a union.WHY CONSERVATIVES OPPOSED IT: Government should not interfere in the 'free market'.
SINCE: The minimum wage, the right to join a union, the 40-hour work work, child protection, a safer workplace, and a continuous (for 30 years after the law passed) rise in the national standard of living.WOMEN'S SUFFERAGE
BEFORE:Women could not vote. Period.WHY CONSERVATIVES OPPOSED IT: A woman's place is in the home. The Bible says so.
SINCE: Women are actually considered equal to men these days!THE CIVIL RIGHTS ACT
BEFORE: Blacks could not exercise their right to vote, they were discriminated against in housing, employment, and were forced to live their lives as second-class citizens in much of the country.WHY CONSERVATIVES OPPOSED IT: It was a violation of "states rights", an interference in the marketplace, and
a violation of God's law.
SINCE: Things have gotten much better for black people. Discrimination is illegal,and most importantly, those who are bigoted against blacks are considered social outcasts as well as being violators of the law.THE CLEAN AIR ACT
BEFORE: Most major American cities had severe problems with air quality. In Pittsburg and other places streetlights had to be turned on at noon the air was so bad.WHY CONSERVATIVES OPPOSED IT: An obvious government interference in Free Enterprise!
SINCE: The air has never been cleaner than it is today. Forcing factories to use filters on their smokestacks has made a huge difference in the quality of life for millions of Americans.THE CONSUMER PROTECTION AGENCY
BEFORE: Caveat Emptor.
WHY CONSERVATIVES OPPOSED IT:Another example of government interfering in the free market (sounds like
a broken record).
SINCE: Now you can rest easy knowing the pajamas you bought for your baby won't catch fire easily and the swingset you bought your little boy has to be built so it won't collapse.Today's candidates for the Conservative Hall Of Shame
CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM: Money equals speech, and conservatives don't see any problem being bought out by those nice folks who send them huge checks. Campaign finance reform has been killed by the Republicans time and time again since they took control of Congress
HEALTH CARE REFORM: People might not want government controlling all of the health care industry, but they don't like the idea of insurance bureaucrats controlling it either. Conservatives are going to lose this one big-time, as they oppose even a common-sense measure like allowing women to stay in the hospitalf or 2 days after giving birth.

Subject: Girls and Boys
This has got to be the all-time classic comeback. This is an exact replication of National Public Radio (NPR) interview between a female Broadcaster, and US Army GENERAL REINWALD who was about to sponsor a Boy Scout Troop visiting his military installation.INTERVIEWER: " So, General Reinwald, what things are you going to teach these young boys when they visit your base?"
GENERAL REINWALD: "We're going to teach them climbing, canoeing, archery, and shooting."
INTERVIEWER: "Shooting! That's a bit irresponsible, isn't it?"
GENERAL REINWALD: "I don't see why, they'll be properly supervised on The rifle range."
INTERVIEWER: "Don't you admit that this is a terribly dangerous activity to be teaching children?"
GENERAL REINWALD: "I don't see how, we will be teaching them proper rifle range discipline before they even touch a firearm."
INTERVIEWER: "But you're equipping them to become violent killers."
GENERAL REINWALD: "Well, you're equipped to be a prostitute, but you're not one, are you?" The radio went silent and the interview ended.

How come nobody ever mentions the fact or asks E-Gore the question as to why his home state of Tenn. celebrates Bedford Forrest birthday he was the founder of the KKK in Tenn and it is a state holiday. Also the confederate flag is sacred in William Jefferson Clintons home state of Ark. passed into law during his tenure as Governor to be flown over the state capitol. Everybody gets upset over S.C. Where is the great Liberal Fairness????????ROTFLOL!!! I don't even think liberal and fair should be in the same sentence together......nobody ever said liberals were fair. They're horribly stupid (and think you are, too), but they are NOT fair!

The Constitution's Preamble as Seen by the Politically Correct
by Dean Chambers
Consider the Preamble to our Constitution as drafted and ultimatelyratified in 1789:We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure theBlessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
All of the words have precise meanings in 1789 and have since been re-defined by the politically correct leftist-liberals who continually seek to move us in the direction of creeping socialism and divisive multicultural conformity that is often labeled "diversity." Realizing the importance of doublespeak, politically correct liberals have devised new definitions of these words, and it is quite common now to hear youngergraduates of our public schools use these definitions without knowing any better. Below I've contrasted the accurate definitions of these words, as used in the preamble, with the politically correct ones.
1).We the People of the United States
Accurate definition: The Human Beings are citizens of this country and whose Rights are recognized by The Bill of Rights.
P.C. definition: Any and all such entities, often excluding human beings, who have alleged to have been abused by human beings and therefore deserving of more rights, such as wild animals and so-called endangered species.
2). in Order to form a more perfect Union
Accurate definition: This simply means in order to more effective create a nation, living under this social contract we call The Constitution.
P.C. definition: This has come to mean creating a government that controls the lives of most citizens because most of us are dolts who are not equipped to make our own decisions regarding our lives and need politicians, bureaucrats, and other so-called experts to make our decisions for us.
3).establish Justice
Accurate definition: Equal treatment under the law, and before government agencies.
P.C. definition: Equality of outcome, economic and otherwise, enforcedby government agencies via progressive taxation and intrusive government regulation. Additionally, social engineering, including so-called affirmative action, shall be necessary to insure such equality and promote multiculturalism and "diversity." Notice how anyone who disagrees with "diversity" is instantly labeled "intolerant." So much for diversity of viewpoints on "diversity."
4). insure domestic Tranquility
Accurate definition: Protect the rights of citizens and insure the peaceful nature of the community.
P.C. definition: Use government force to promote "tolerance" for diversity, including forcing "sensitivity training" on those politically incorrect enough to disagree with the "diversity" agenda.
5).provide for the common defence
Accurate definition: Defend our borders from attack.
P.C. definition: Defend and promote politically correct values throughout the world by sending our military on international meals-on-wheels missions while under-funding the legitimate defense mission of the armed forces.
6).promote the general Welfare
Accurate definition: Protect the Rights of citizens through stable Constitution government that enforces the laws against those who violate the rights of others.
P.C. definition: Insure equality through social engineering and social "welfare" programs, all of which are paid for by taking money from those who earn it and giving it to those who do not.
7) and secure the Blessings of Liberty
Accurate definition: Protecting and defending the Rights recognized in The Bill of Rights.
P.C. definition: Extending and expanding entitlements and privileges while narrowing, violating, or eliminating legitimate individual rights.
8).ourselves and our Posterity
Accurate definition: Current U. S. citizens and future citizens.
P.C. definition: The citizens "educated" enough to be politically correct, as well as those who have yet to finish their "sensitivity training" in order to become politically correct.
9).Constitution for the United States of America
Accurate definition: A lasting and profound document that provides a social contract for us to live under in freedom, and only changes when we amend it through the process provided for in the Constitution.
P.C. definition: A worthless and out-dated document that we need to pay little attention to, and when we do, read it to mean whatever we want it to mean. After all, what could a group of angry white males writing a constitution in 1787 know about life in the U.S. in year 2000?
In honor the politically correct, I've re-written the preamble using thewords that the politically correct really believe it means.
We the Dolts of the United States, in Order to form a socialist society, establish Diversity, insure multiculturalism, provide for the common civility and sensitivity, promote the Welfare State, and secure the Blessings of privilege to the politically correct, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America, which will be interpreted to mean whatever our justices say it means, whenever they rule that it means such.

.Bashing The Scouts Continues
The Chancellor of New York's public schools has instructed the school system's lawyers to review the relationship of the Board of Education to the Boy Scouts. "We want to make sure it complies with our anti-discrimination policy," he said. Well, we all know what that means.The gay rights movement is brow beating yet another cowardly public official to bend to their demands. Right now the Greater New York Council of the Boy Scouts runs an in-school program called "Learning for Life" that helps 100,000 children in New York - most of them minority and poor. It would be a tragedy, but not a surprise, if those kids were sacrificed so that homosexual demands are met.

Virtually anyone can be a Democrat. Just simply quit thinking and vote that way. But if you want to be a GOOD Democrat, there are some prerequisites you must have first. Compare the below and see how you rate.You have to believe the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of federal funding.
You have to believe that the same teacher who can't teach 4th graders how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex.
You have to believe that guns, in the hands of law-abiding Americans, are more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology, in the hands of Chinese communists.
You have to believe that there was no art before Federal funding.
You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical, documented changes in the earth's climate, and more affected by yuppies driving SUVs.
You have to believe that gender roles are artificial but being homosexual is natural.
You have to be against capital punishment but support abortion on demand at any point in the pregnancy.
You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity and jobs.
You have to believe that hunters don't care about nature, but loony activists who have never been outside Seattle do.
You have to believe that self-esteem is more important than actually doing something to earn it.
You have to believe the military, not corrupt politicians, start wars.
You have to believe the NRA is bad, because it supports certain parts of the Constitution, while the ACLU is good, because it supports certain parts of the Constitution.
You have to believe that taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high.
You have to believe that Margaret Sanger and Gloria Steinmen are more important to American history than Thomas Jefferson, General Robert E. Lee or Thomas Edison.
You have to believe that standardized tests are racist, but racial quotas and set-asides aren't.
You have to believe Hillary Clinton is really a lady.
You have to believe that the only reason socialism hasn't worked anywhere it's been tried, is because the right people haven't been in charge; big government always knows better than you.
You have to believe conservatives telling the truth belong in jail, but a liar, sex offender and draft dodger belongs in the White House.
You have to believe that homosexual parades displaying drag, transvestites and bestiality should be constitutionally protected and manger scenes at Christmas should be illegal.
You have to believe that illegal Democratic party funding by the Chinese is somehow in the best interest of the United States.
You have to believe Mr. Clinton "did not have sex with that woman" --- try telling that to your wife or husband.
You have to believe Richard Nixon obstructed justice by having an 18 minute gap in one tape of his recorded conversations, but that it was only an innocent mistake that one year's worth of Al Gore's e-mail's got erased.
And, wouldn't you know that these e-mail's of Al's just happen to be the ones subpoenaed by a White House committee and a federal grand jury in their continuing investigation of campaign finance abuses and other matters.
You have to believe Hillary's, Rose Law Firm, billing records, under subpoena, could not be found for three years, but suddenly turned up on a coffee table in the White House.

Here's what the Democrats constantly spin to Americans!" Spin "
It starts off with confusion
And ambiguity is its desired course
The Meisters will now try to control
Your shallow mind through proper discourse.By now you start to feel woozy
From the vertigo which has slowly seeped in
To regain consciousness is your only salvation
Or your disposition will be at the mercy of spin.So be careful about whatever you get into
Before you lapse into some altered state
A proper balance should always be maintained
Or you'll be molded into some shoddy trait.© Mark T. Bobitka

Our last president and the Democratic Party are the spinners of spin, political correctness, etc, etc ad nasuam. Any criticism no matter how true, of Clinton was wildly protected and argued by the liberals, the party, the Presidential cabinet and their best spin doctors. O they worked soooooo hard on it (they had to)
Our current President, has been unjustly criticized since his inaguaration by the liberals, the Democratic party, the senate speaker and his cohorts, Dashel and Leahy, and sometimes the press, and sometimes the comedy channels long since off the air, program "Thats My Bush" You know the silence he has kept in these matters speaks more volumnes to me than any of the criticism against him. He has been exceptional, we all know it, the liberals and the Democrats know it, and no matter how hard anyone tries, they cant get this "guy's goat". We got us a real President, and were proud of him.
Most of the false digs, are soon forgotten and where are the voices now? 85% approval rating? unheard of??? we are very proud of our 43rd president.James H - from Michigan
