Liberal intolerance costs Juan Williams his job

Liberal intolerance bites Juan Williams in the pocketbook. Why is it that liberals complain, harass, and boycott whenever they hear opinions that aren't identical to theirs? The answer is partisan tolerance, by which theory tolerance of liberals is good but tolerance of conservatives is evil, as proposed by Herbert Marcuse in the 60s and used by liberals ever since as the reason why they speak and act hatefully towards conservatives while claiming to be fighting hate speech (as seen in every campus visit by Ann Coulter). This is also why they can act with the vilest types of misogyny toward conservative women while claiming to be feminists (see Sarah Palin, Ann Coulter, Christine O'Donnell, Michele Malkin, Michelle Bachman, Maggie Thatcher, even Ginni Thomas).



Of course what this really boils down to is dehumanization. While hiding behind the fancy political theories from the socialist Marcuse Liberals simply demonize and dehumanize their political rivals. In this way they don't have to play fair. They just assume their opponents are demonic and inhumane and claim conservatives are guilty of all sorts of evil practices. That gives them the excuse to do whatever they want, which is generally exactly what they claim their rivals are doing, and is the moral justification for their ends justify the means thinking.



In this situation, Juan Williams was fired by a government funded news organization for political speech that didn't agree with the official government position. Seems kind of like a violation of the first amendment to me, but what do I know? I'm no Elliot "Client No. 9" Spitzer, or Barack Obama, after all. I just happen to have read the plain language of the amendment today and it sure seems applicable.

NPR has terminated its contract with Juan Williams, one of its senior news analysts, after he made comments about Muslims on the Fox News Channel.



The move came after Mr. Williams, who is also a Fox News political analyst, appeared on the “The O’Reilly Factor” on Monday. On the show, the host, Bill O’Reilly, asked him to respond to the notion that the United States was facing a “Muslim dilemma.” Mr. O’Reilly said, “The cold truth is that in the world today jihad, aided and abetted by some Muslim nations, is the biggest threat on the planet.”


Mr. Williams said he concurred with Mr. O’Reilly.


He continued: “I mean, look, Bill, I’m not a bigot. You know the kind of books I’ve written about the civil rights movement in this country. But when I get on the plane, I got to tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think, you know, they are identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried. I get nervous.”

Christine O'Donnell Sings!

If T-Pain can be said to sing then Christine O'Donnell can too.



The Gregory Brothers, those musical autotune wizards who produced the awesome songified version of Double Rainbow, have changed Christine O'Donnell's first ad into a song and released it to the net.

Green Jobs stink for everyone

And I'm not talking about the porta-potties in your backyard or composting toilets they want to install under your bathroom. Green jobs are poorly defined, cost more money to consumers, give poverty level employment to employees, and are in general a giant step backwards to the bad old days before antibiotics, electricity, telephones, and the internal combustion engine.

Myth 1: Everyone understands what a “green job: is.

Fact 1: No standard definition of a “green job” is set.


Myth 3: Green jobs forecasts are reliable.

Fact 3: The green jobs studies estimates using poor economic models based on uncertain assumptions.


Myth 5: The world economy can be remade by reducing trade and relying on local production and reduced consumption without dramatically decreasing out standard of living.

Fact 5: Learning from the past; history shoes that individual nations cannot product everything their people want or need. Every country possesses different talents that allow specialization in products and services which in turn lowers costs for producers and makes them more efficient.

Barack Obama Bingo Game may make Obama speeches fun to listen to

Whether or not you used to enjoy listening to the repetitive droning of the US's most overrated reader of teleprompters ever, this game may make his speeches entertaining, if not specifically for their content. I have to admit. I liked his "not red states and blue states, united states" speech back in 2004.

Will deliberate lawbreaking be tolerated or punished?

If George W. Bush's wife, Laura, had deliberately broken the law and photos existed of the lawbreaking, would the media be silent about it? Would she have gotten away with it? Or would she have gone to jail?



Why? Oh, just curious. No reason.

Today, when Michelle Obama voted early in Chicago, she reportedly told a voter that he needed to vote to keep her husband’s legislative agenda alive. This took place in an area where such electioneering is prohibited by Illinois law. The law has criminal consequences.

People like Pete Rose and Richard Nixon learned that America has little tolerance for those who think they are above the law.

Recipient of Foreign Donations Accuses Others of Taking Foreign Donations #obama

Remember back in 2008 when the Obama campaign received all sorts of donations from unsavory, imaginary characters like "Doodad"? Add in the donations from the Gaza strip, and the donations from pre-paid credit cards, and the fraudulent charges to unsuspecting credit card holders. The media wouldn't even cover the story.

Capitalism Saved the Chilean Miners

Daniel Henninger lists several of the innovative technologies that saved the lives of the Chilean miners and brought every single one of them to the surface alive. Every single one of these innovative technologies was produced by capitalist companies operating in a free market. None of them came from governments.And yet we have government leaders and an entire political party devoted to demonizing capitalism and promoting more government red-tape as the answer to every government-caused problem.
