When you peel all of the toxic propaganda skin from the onion of public opinion, you recognize more and more the institutional leftist legacy “media” is the enemy of this republic.

Show me a challenging current day issue of public interest, any issue, and I will prove to you root of the cancer infecting the United States of America is the media. – Yes, it is that bad.

The extent of the media manipulation toward the position of the “collectivist” is so bad there is no longer a single ‘event’, significant or otherwise, they will not try to mold to fit their ideological view of the world.

The latest example is the creme filled sponge cake – The Twinkie. (more…)

President Obama’s core, his center, his essence, is not as simple as viewing him as a classic leftist/progressive in the FDR model.   To really understand, and subsequently be able to predict his future activity you have to understand his Global Leftism.

In part driven by his upbringing, and in part driven by his associations, and in part driven by his own self-created values and beliefs.   When you listen to his words, watch his behaviors, understand his purposes and intents, watch his jealousies (Clinton Global Initiative), and understand the well written psychologies behind his endeavors, you recognize his approach is more mentally academic than I believe people give him credit for.

President Obama believes the stuff he has developed an affection for.  He truly does.   That’s not to say the policies that flow from it are appropriate, reasonable or even well constructed, indeed most are not.   But what they “are” is predictable. (more…)

(Via AP)  Hostess Brands Inc. lived to die another day.  The maker of Twinkies and Ding Dongs said late Tuesday that it failed to reach an agreement with its second-biggest union. As a result, Hostess plans to continue with a hearing on Wednesday in which a bankruptcy court judge in White Plains, N.Y., will decide if the company can shutter its operations.

The renewed talks between Hostess and The Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union came after the company declared last week that it would move to wind down its business and start selling off its assets in bankruptcy court. The company cited a crippling strike that was started on Nov. 9 by the union, which represents 30 percent of Hostess workers. (more…)

Wow…. what a coincidence huh?   Last Tuesday President meets with with Big Labor (AFL-CIO, AFSCME, SEIU etc), leftists from MoveOn.Org and Center for American Progress at the White House….  Then exactly one week later, THE EXACT SAME LEADERS, announce a progressive coordinated protest outside Wal Mart stores nationwide on Black Friday.

(Daily Caller)  MoveOn.org has jumped into the fight for a unionized Wal-Mart workforce. The liberal group has sent emails to its list nationwide, urging a mass-protest outside Wal-Mart stores on Black Friday. The organization is encouraging people to strike against management even if they aren’t Wal-Mart employees themselves. (more…)

Lindsey Stone and Jamie Schuh are no better than Fred Phelps and the creepy people from Westboro Baptist Church.  Period.   There are no acceptable varying degrees, or nuanced grey areas, regarding disrespect of desecration of our dead soldiers.

BOSTON (CBS) – Two women have been placed on unpaid leave from their jobs after their photo at Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia angered thousands of people on Facebook.  — Lindsey Stone was visiting the Tomb of the Unknowns last month on a business trip when she posed for a picture next to a sign that reads “silence and respect.”

In the photo, Stone is pretending to yell and she’s showing her middle finger. (more…)

The bankruptcy judge listened to Hostess request for liquidation of assets but noted a technical aspect.   The Union never entered any mediation – they just went on strike.  Thinking the average rank and file union member might have a divergent opinion now they they realize the company will indeed liquidate, the Judge says give mediation a try now, thinking the union will pressure the leadership to change opinion.

TWINKIE PRIDE – Hostess Brands Inc. and its second largest union will go into mediation to try and resolve their differences, meaning the Irving, Texas-based company won’t go out of business just yet. The news came Monday after Hostess moved to liquidate and sell off its assets in bankruptcy court citing a crippling strike last week.

The bankruptcy judge hearing the case says that the parties haven’t gone through the critical step of mediation and asked the lawyer for the bakery’s union to ask his client, who wasn’t present, if he would agree to participate. (more…)

ISRAEL – A rocket fired from Gaza has hit a school in Ashkelon. This is the second time on Monday that a school in the city was hit by a Hamas missile. No injuries were reported, though the school building was damaged. […]

On the sixth day of Operation Pillar of Defense, Israel upped the frequency of its airstrikes at the Gaza Strip, targeting smuggling tunnels, rocket launching squads, weapons and ammunition caches (including one located under Gaza City’s main soccer stadium), and terror groups’ field commanders. The death toll in Gaza stands at 84, roughly two thirds of which are combatants. (more…)

Bear with me, this needs somewhat of a set up.    After watching President Obama get re-elected, despite the insufferably painful in-your-face and pocketbook policies that are economically destructive to a brutal point, it is painfully obvious there is much heavy lifting needed.

I have now fully digested all the Romney folks who give their excuses, the Cocktail Class Decepticons who give their insight, and the beltway Republicans -who still think Mitch McConnell is a reasonable face for the party. Seriously?  Talk about “moderation”, vis-a-vis acquiescence to the leftist progressive principles.

The progressive intolerant President Obama campaign was a cynical one, and using his own words “revenge,” based in large part on division amid the electorate; noting Millionaires/Billionaires are now couples making $250k or more, and freebies like birth control at the expense of religious liberty; with promises of more “stuff” like amnesty to illegal aliens, bailouts for unsustainable union contracts and bigger government like the takeover of student finances, to “spread the wealth;”  and if you didn’t like it, well, you were a racist.   People fell for it.

Essentially, the final insight I personally was waiting to understand, was to see who the new face of the RGA would be, and who they would put forth as the messenger for the party headed to 2014/2016.   Bobby Jindal, was selected and now he provides the roadmap to how Republicans are going to approach the electorate moving forward: (more…)

But don’t look up…..  NEW YORK – There was real-life drama at Paul Rudd’s Broadway play “Grace” when an audience member who appeared drunk threw up over a mezzanine railing onto theatergoers below. “A drunk guy vomited over the railing onto about a dozen audience members seated in the orchestra, right in the middle of one of Rudd’s big monologues on Wednesday.”

[So] said one disgusted witness, adding, “There was mass chaos for several minutes, but the cast played right on through, ignoring the disruption.” Spies added of the nauseous fellow, “It was very apparent that alcohol was to blame” for the incident. (more…)
