I watch a lot of these kinds of videos because it’s personal – like when the Youngest and Eldest came home and the reactions of our dogs. This one is unlike any other I’ve seen: After being gone for over six months overseas, my daddy’s girl of a puppy is finally reunited with her daddy. … Read more
Last evening I drove down the to seacoast area of NH for a book signing by James O’Keefe on his new book (now a NYT Best Seller – man, I bet somebody was banging on their keyboard really hard for each letter to put that on their list, especially since Rush told folks to go buy it!) “BREAKTHROUGH – Our Guerrilla War to Expose Fraud and Save Democracy“. No, I didn’t get mine signed then – I had an extra special time with James here. But I did record his talk to the house full of activists:
He was also gracious enough to take 12 questions from the attendees, including one from me:
Cities and states are sinking under the burden of debt brought about by public service union contracts. How did it get this way and what can be done about it? Philip Howard, founder of Common Good, has answers. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kxe34WqKcT4&feature=player_detailpage
Imagine! I could do my lawn in, oh, 30 seconds flat – at a 130 mph. Isn’t technology wonderful? What’s one of the perks of being Honda, a multi billion dollar global corporation? That it can make vehicles like the one above at whim. They took the body of one of their HF2620 Lawn Tractors … Read more
OK, not exactly your granny’s “hover round”… Sidenote: you notice those commercials for those power chairs that were “available at little or no cost to you” seem to be gone? Yeah, busted allegedly for Medicare fraud. I always wondered how friends and co-workers could afford houses WAY more than what I had even as our … Read more
Grokster Steve has been doing yeoman’s work on doing all things GrokTALK! since we restarted a bit ago. The decision was made was to start small and not go for broke like we’ve done in the past doing all kinds of things. So, we started with just the audio podcast. Then Steve hooked it up … Read more
Providence College Professor of English, Anthony Esolen, vividly demonstrates why the “Dark Ages” were not so Dark after all. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j5Lk3DgT5v0&feature=player_detailpage
Sheesh. I think we may be going from LIVs to NIVs (Low Information Voters to NO Information Voters): “Mark Dice asks California beach goers if they’ll sign a petition showing support for Obama in his quest to repeal the Bill of Rights” You know I’m getting tired of this stuff when even *I* think I’m … Read more
If we do not know our past, how can we guide ourselves in our future? Or are we destined to be only the equivalent, as Obama said, Greek exceptionalism? Remember, “when everyone is special, then nobody is special” (from the movie “The Incredibles”). “For the first century of American history, both Europeans and Americans saw … Read more
While with the 101st, he was the lead in his platoon for running and taking care of the crew served weapon system that sat on top of some of their vehicles – and firing the automatic weapons safely ensconced inside with a screen and Nintendo type control (instead of being “up top” standing in the … Read more
The failure of public schools to impart even rudimentary knowledge of self-government principles, natural rights theory and the rule of law is compounded by the suicidal abandonment of civic education. As Stanford University education professor William Damon notes: “Our disregard of civic and moral virtue as an educational priority is having a tangible effect on the attitudes, understanding and behavior of large portions of the youth population in the United States today.”
– Michelle Malkin
(emphasis mine). Add this, too, by Thomas Jefferson (who WAS one of our Founding Fathers, if you were wondering) to the one in the title:
“The field of knowledge, is the common prosperity of all mankind.”
Sigh…sounds like the GPS’s of these chuckleheads were a few birds short and missed “The field”…
Should I dispair now? Somehow, I get the feeling this is more of a “feature” of our Educational system than a “bug”. I afear that old Ben may have been right: “A Republic, if you can keep it”. You cannot keep something that which you know nothing about. As Michelle Malkin puts it:
As we celebrate our nation’s 237th birthday, a crucial facet of American life has all but vanished. We have forsaken, in a systematic and deliberate public manner, one of our most fundamental duties: fostering civic virtue in each and every one of our citizens.
What does it mean to be an American? Politicians in both parties keep pushing to create a new “path to citizenship” for millions of illegal aliens. But if sovereignty and self-preservation still matter in Washington, citizenship must be guarded ferociously against those who would exploit and devalue it at every electoral whim.
I have had the privilege to interview James on a number of occasions, we’ve put up almost all of his investigative journalism videos (ACORN, Planned Parenthood, NPR, Teachers Gone Wild, and of COURSE, the First In the Primary Voter Fraud), and participated in the trip to the NH Department of Justice when he went to … Read more
Am having a horrible case of bloggers block tonite – I have rewritten a different post 4 times now and it still isn’t right. Sorry that this is it, but it does go to the heart of the complete split between the two camps: one gives thanks to God in gratitude (for that is the … Read more
Here you have it. The ‘Ideologically superior Obama voter demonstrating their intellectual prowess on matters of….I’m kidding. They are all, as Mary Katherine Ham describes them here, “Miss Utah-esque.
I love watching stuff in slow motion – without technology, we’d never get the chance to see some pretty surprising things and this clip is no different. However, the host premises a hypothesis about firing rates… …and ends up with a counterintuitive result! (H/T: Gizmodo)
…how DARE you try to use our tactic of emotional blackmail for abortions! I have to admit, that was a GREAT question and well posed. It shows that much of the “faux outrage” of Democrats on many issues is exactly that: false and demogogic. They are tailored to pull at emotion instead of reason. And … Read more
A former Democrat State Senator from Louisiana, recently switched parties. In this video he explains to his black constituents why it was the right thing to do, who the Democrat party really is and what they are really after.
Project Veritas, founded by James O’Keefe, made a mockery of the falsehood promulgated by NH Democrats that voter fraud didn’t exist in NH. They continued to look away, like ostriches racing to the nearest sand bar milliner or hatters (yeah, think that one over), for years as instances of fraud kept rolling into AG’s office (many times by Ed Naile, Chair of the Coalition of NH Taxpayers – better known as CNHT,who penned a message here). It finally took a guy a mere few years out of college, James O’Keefe, and an audastic band of brothers similarly committed to expose the seams where ossified government policy and inertia is overtaken by malfeasant people, to employ what General Patton once said:”L’audace, toujours l’audance” (“always audacity”). They used simple technique, really – cameras, YouTube, and the New Media, to show how easy voter fraud was. The audacity in all this , as we all know now – was to be fearless in exposing that which had been denied by the Left for so many decades and centuries – on Election Day, just walk up to a poll worker , ask “Do you have a ballot for <insert name here>, and one could vote as many times as one would have wanted.
Which made the NH Ruling class look rather silly and they began to retaliate. As the first link shows, Dem Gov Lynch tried to veto the Voter ID law passed by the NH Senate and House subsequent to the videos appearing – and failed. Uber-Progressive Zandra “Rice Crispies”-Hawkins tried a petition to the AG’s office – and being plied by both sides, NH Assistant Attorney General Richard Head decided that he would not only use the good name of his office but also consorted with someone known to be on the wrong side of the law, Nadia Naffe, to obtain illegality gotten emails of James O’Keefe?
So this past week, James O’Keefe decided to confront him:
The documents mentioned by James are linked to after the jump. To Be Continued
