The continuing and sad decline of Airstrip 1

The withered husk of a once-great nation that has succumbed to dhimmitude and apathy shows once again why the UK might be the first domino in Europe to willingly and embarrassingly accept hostile, Islamic colonization.

This is Amy Houston. She was run over by Aso Mohammed Ibrahim, a Muslim immigrant from Iraq who had an extensive rap sheet which included a revoked driver's license. After running her over, he left her under the wheels of his car and fled. Days later, her father had to make the awful decision to turn off her life-support. For this crime, Ibrahim served only a token sentence and is now free.

After all that, the British immigration courts have decided to grant Ibrahim asylum and allow him to remain in the UK permanently rather than deporting him, citing his absurd "right to a family life", which is stated in the UK's stupid Human Rights Document.

The pernicious creep of political correctness and apathy have reduced the UK into a moribund society that cares not, even for it's own survival.

Happy Winter Solstice

Because we are forced by our overlords to slavishly observe political correctness in all things regardless of how absurd, I thought it would be appropriate to offer the PC version of The Twelve Days of Christmas......

Whoopi gets it wrong

In case you missed it, oddly named Whoopi Goldberg appeared on Greta's show to talk about her meltdown during Bill O's now famous appearance on The View. Here's their exchange..... [emphasis mine]

From TheFoxNation -- GRETA VAN SUSTEREN, FOX NEWS HOST: I got to ask you about Bill O'Reilly. You took a hike from the set. You can't take on Bill O'Reilly?

WHOOPI GOLDBERG: You know what, I don't want to have to take on Bill O'Reilly. I don't want to have to fight with anybody. But, you know, if he had said all Irish people are drunks, or all black people love fried chicken, it's the same thing to me.

Wrong! That would only be an accurate analogy if Bill had said that all Muslims are terrorists. He didn't say that. NOBODY is saying that. What he did say was that all terrorists are Muslim.

The converse of that is also true. If Irish people or black people had attacked us on 9-11 in the name of being Irish or black, or if Irish or blacks were responsible for nearly all the terrorism in the world for the last 30 years, all in the name of their nationality or race, then he would be right in saying that all terrorists are Irish or all terrorists are black. It's not being bigoted, it's just stating fact.

See how leftists, devoid of any logical debate points, make a simple switch in their argument to make you look like a bigot when you never said anything bigoted?

The gals over at N.O.W. take the fun out of everything

So KFC is hiring hottie college girls to wear sweats with the phrase "Double Down" on the rear to advertise their new bunless sandwich and from the looks of it, business is hopping....

From USAToday -- The nation's largest women's group doesn't like it one bit. "It's so obnoxious to once again be using women's bodies to sell fundamentally unhealthy products," says Terry O'Neill, president of the National Organization for Women. What's more, she says, KFC has forgotten something important: Women make more than half the decisions about what to eat for dinner.

The harpies over at N.O.W. will have to settle down. This is a simple employment contract into which these ladies freely entered. It's no body's business as long as they aren't breaking any laws, being exploited, or otherwise abused. It's still a mostly free country and last time I checked we still have a few freedoms left to enjoy. One of which is to wear a sign on our rumps if somebody pays us to.

Like Rush points out, gals over at N.O.W. are just resentful that they aren't pretty enough for KFC to pay to use their backsides for advertising.

Looks like I'll be switching to Hunts

I wonder if Thereza Heinz or her gigolo husband John Kerry had anything to do with this....

From FoxNation -- Your fries may never taste the same again!

For the first time in 40 years, Heinz ketchup is changing its famous recipe -- by lowering the salt content in an effort to appeal to more health-conscious consumers, the company said yesterday.

I have two words of warning for Heinz: New Coke!

Whites only at the fish wrapper of record

This tidbit caught my eye this morning....

New York Times Pays Execs Extra To Hire Minorities And Women Instead Of White Guys

Apparently the NYT is concerned about the whiteness of it's staff so to encourage the hiring of more minorities, the senior execs can earn as much as a 10% bonus. As it turns out, since the inception of the hiring incentives, only one guy as earned any extra mullah, and he earned 5%. Turns out the chief regurgitator of liberal talking points, isn't as diverse as they accuse the rest of America of not being.

Exit question: how do the hired minorities respond when asked how they feel about their bosses being bribed to hire them for no reason but the color of their skin? Would you want to be hired for your meaningless ethnic background or your ability to do the job for which you were competing?

More idiocy from Airstrip One

I'm sure I'll incur once again, the righteous indignation and wrath of my good friend Jenn Burleton over at TransFusion but, incurring indignation and wrath is what I do here. That said, this is about the stupidest thing I've ever heard....

Schools which force girls to wear skirts may be breaking the law - because the policy apparently discriminates against transsexuals.

Official guidance from the Equality and Human Rights Commission says the dress code may breach the rights of girls who feel compelled to live as boys.

Well, TG/TS community....tell us what is palatable for a six year-old tranny to wear? Skirts are for girls and pants are for boys so what's left...burlap potato sacks? Next they'll be demanding that schools provide a TG/TS bathroom because they're uncomfortable in regular bathrooms. Oh wait, they already do that.

What is the world coming to when every custom, tradition, and convention of civil society is on the chopping block to appease the tiny minority that feel oppressed by them. They aren't actually oppressed by anybody, they just feel oppressed and want some attention from us serious folks. When a society abandons it's own culture to the whim of deviants, real or imagined, what is left to define it as a society?

Race quotas for police endanger the public

This is perhaps the stupidest public policy initiative I've ever heard...

The Chicago Police Department is seriously considering scrapping the police entrance exam, sources tell Fran Spielman.

Dropping the exam would bolster minority hiring and avert legal battles, according to one source, while others confirm that the exam could be scrapped to open the process to as many people as possible.

If there are any professions which, without competent, skilled practitioners, bring harm to the public, it's neurosurgery and police. Entrance exams serve a purpose, they weed out the idiots and underachievers. Allowing idiots and underachievers to become policemen in order to fill a race quota is appallingly stupid. Do we really want to give to people who can't pass a simple test, the authority to shoot people? If they can't pass the entrance exam, perhaps minorities should have been paying better attention in school.

Profile the Muslims!!!

On one of the busiest flying weekends of the year, our myopic, politically correct government decided to further inconvenience domestic air travellers with excessive security checks, because a crazed Muslim, aged 18-25, tried to blow up an airplane full of people over Detroit, after departing from Amsterdam. Of course Holland is perhaps the most tolerant, Muslim-friendly country in all the western world. It is literally being colonized by hostile Muslims and the Dutch continue to bend over backwards to accommodate them regardless of how hostile they are toward their hosts.

When is America going to pull it's head out and start profiling Muslims who're coming into the country? I'll wager that even if this attempt had been successful and there had been bodies strewn from Saginaw to Kalamazoo that day, our government would have insisted that we not judge Islam nor give in to the temptation to unfairly single Muslim travellers out for scrutiny. They'd say that our diversity is our strength and that profiling is equal to religious persecution.

What a load of crap!

The only group on Earth who are hell-bent on killing Americans are Muslims. Every other country in the world is laughing at our stupidity. Sure, one or two might get through despite our efforts but, it won't be because we invited it with blinding political correctness.

Profiling all crazed Muslims, aged 18-25, who are immigrating or visiting America would stop most of these incidents.

"Sports Reporters" features too much agenda and too little sports reporting

I was watching the Sports Reporters this morning on ESPN and the topic was Urban Meyer's unexpected departure from Florida and, his citation of health reasons. William C. Rhodan(pic) made the outrageous argument that the NCAA or the federal government should legislate that like players, coaches should be limited to how much time they spend at their jobs because of the adverse health effects that come from the stress of big-time college football. What an idiot!

Coaches are employees, not student/athletes. If Urban Meyer wants to work himself to death, that's his business, the same as it is Rhoden's if he works himself too hard.
Would Rhoden be OK with the government dictating how much time he gets each week to write his columns? For guys like Rhoden, government interference in other peoples' lives is OK as long as it stays out of his life.

The next moronic thing he said was that any NCAA school that fails to interview at least one minority to fill a head-coaching position vacancy, should be penalized 5 scholarships. I wonder if he's for the same quota system on the field as off of it? Blacks only make up 12% of the population yet, black student/athletes dominate football and basketball at the college and professional levels. I don't hear him complaining about that disparity. I guess affirmative action and quotas are only good if they unfairly benefit black kids and coaches and punish white ones.

Every time I watch that show, I'm reminded of why I don't watch it.

How far the mighty have fallen!

Life in the ridiculous nanny-state we used to call the UK, just keeps getting stupider and stupider...

Swimmers at a council pool have been banned from doing lengths for health and safety reasons.
They have been told they may only swim across the width of the pool as it makes it easier for lifeguards to ensure their safety.

I guess we can forget about England's Olympic swim team in 2012 being able to compete in the big-boy pool.

The salty tear of karma is bitter tasting indeed

Sometimes, paybacks are a pure pleasure to watch, but the icing on the cake comes when the person being paid back is the degenerate reprobate, Perez Hilton....

From my good friend Pat over at BelchSpeak

Police have charged the tour manager of the Black Eyed Peas with assault after he gave celebrity blogger Perez Hilton a black eye outside a Toronto nightclub.

Hilton said he got into an argument with band members Fergie and will.i.am at the Cobra nightclub early Monday morning and was punched outside by Polo Molina, the band’s tour manager. They were at the club following a Sunday night video awards show.

Hilton, who is openly gay, said in interview with The Associated Press that he called will.i.am a “faggot,” a gay slur, inside the club after the musician told the blogger not to write about his band on his Web site.

What perfect symmetry there is in the universe when an asshole like Perez Hilton, who figuratively beat-up Carrie Prejean for stating an anti-gay opinion in response to a question he asked, gets literally beat-up himself for calling somebody "faggot".

You can't close the karmic circle any tighter than that.

Look at that tear. I know girl-scouts who're tougher than that. I'm glad he got his butt kicked. Maybe now he'll learn to treat people a little better...but somehow I doubt he will.

If you outlaw knives, only outlaws will have knives

This might be the stupidest thing I'll see all week. You might have already guessed that it's from the former great, Great Britain....

The first “anti-stab” knife is to go on sale in Britain, designed to work as normal in the kitchen but to be ineffective as a weapon.

The knife has a rounded edge instead of a point and will snag on clothing and skin to make it more difficult to stab someone.

Mr Cornock, 42, from Swindon, said that the knife will cut vegetables, but will make it almost impossible to stab someone to death and will reduce the risk of accidental injuries.

He said: “It can never be a totally safe knife, but the idea is you can’t inflict a fatal wound. Nobody could just grab one out of the kitchen drawer and kill someone.”

That's a load of crap. I could kill you nine different ways from Sunday with this knife. It's like the citizens of the UK are retarded toddlers who cannot be trusted with sharp objects. What's next, blunted nursery-school scissors? Crayons instead of ball-point pens?

The stab-less knife......gimme a break!

Native Americans join the ranks of the perpetually offended

Native Americans seem ironically proud to be defined by casino gambling where people by the thousands become addicted and destitute. Yet what plague them as a people is alcohol addiction and destitution...that and pretending to be offended by decades of school traditions that honor them....

DICKINSON, N.D. — North Dakota's Board of Higher Education has agreed to drop the University of North Dakota's Fighting Sioux nickname and Indian head logo, a move intended to resolve a decades-long campus dispute about whether the name demeans American Indians.

I think Native Americans have discovered the value in PC America of being an offended minority. Rather than confront directly their peoples' failure to assimilate, get educated, remain unaddicted, and maintain employment, tribal leaders tilt at the offensive-college-mascot windmill. Luckily for them there are plenty of smarmy, liberal bureaucrats who love stomping on any and all long-standing traditions, no matter how benign and reverential.

If it weren't for NCAA schools remembering and honoring the Native American traditions of pride, fighting spirit, and brotherhood, would anybody remember them for anything but gambling?

What's wrong with "giving"? Why does it have to be "giving back"?

Nincompoop celebrities and vacuous politicians love to use the term "giving back" because they want you to feel guilty for what you've accomplished, as if you didn't do it on your own, as if you didn't earn what you have....

MERCED, Calif. – First lady Michelle Obama praised graduating students at California's smallest, youngest public university for their determination to succeed, urging them to give back to their communities.

In her debut as a commencement speaker on Saturday, Mrs. Obama evoked the struggles of California's founders — settlers and former slaves, trailblazers and immigrants — to encourage the 493 members of the school's first full graduating class to use their newfound skills to lift up those around them.

"You will face tough times. You will certainly have doubts, and let me tell you because I know I did when I was your age," she said. "Remember that you are blessed. Remember that in exchange for those blessings, you must give something back. You must reach back and pull someone up. You must bend down and let someone else stand on your shoulders so that they can see a brighter future."

What if you made your own way through school and didn't take a penny of public money that you won't be paying back, with interest? What if your community didn't help you do anything? What if you didn't get a leg up by being a politically favored minority? In other words, what if you earned what you've gotten and don't owe anybody anything in return?

"Giving back" is not just a meaningless phrase made popular by American Idol. It's a veiled implication that you don't really own what you produce. It's a subliminal suggestion that you owe others for your thoughts, accomplishments, and earnings. It's an insidious attempt to make you feel guilty for what you've worked for, so that you won't complain when it's taken from you for somebody elses' benefit...somebody who is too lazy, dumb, and unmotivated to do what you've done.

I don't recall anybody but my mom giving me anything, so I give, but I don't give back to anybody but her.

Wealth and class envy in the reprehensible media

So, you don't think the main stream media have a liberal agenda to advance? Read this headline from the AP about that tragic plane crash where 7 children perished....

BUTTE, Mont. (AP) - Three California families headed to a retreat for the ultrarich were among the 14 victims of a plane crash in Montana.

For heaven's sake! What possible relevance to the plane crash does "retreat for the ultrarich" have? None at all. The stupid, jackass reporter that wrote it is suggesting, and not too subtly, that because they were ultrarich, that they probably deserved to die in a fiery plane crash. Otherwise why add that qualifier?

This is what Obama has wrought in America....open class warfare and resentment toward anybody who has more than you. It's disgusting and shameful!

Pat Robertson is a tool!

I've always thought Pat Robertson was a decent guy but, he tends to come out of left field unexpectedly sometimes. Like when he was interviewed recently about Obama's start as CiC.....

Interviewer: So you don't subscribe to Rush Limbaugh's "I hope he fails" school of thought?
Pat: "That was a terrible thing to say. I mean, he's the president of all the country. If he succeeds, the country succeeds. And if he doesn't, it hurts us all. Anybody who would pull against our president is not exactly thinking rationally."

Pat's playing the role of the useful-idiot populist he adopts every now and then. He's a traditional conservative but, once in a while he goes along with the the liberal crowd by stating whatever is popular at the time. How he can intentionally misrepresent Rush's comments on Obama is outrageous. I agree with Rush, that if success to Obama means that he plunges the country further toward a European-style, socialist, nanny-State then I hope he fails miserably too. Pat's just talking out of his rear end again.

Here's Robertson squeezing out another pearl of wisdom.

The Obesity Police

We Americans can gaze across the pond and see what's around the corner for us, as the once-Great Britain plunges headlong into the dark abyss of nanny-State political correctness and tyranny. In order to combat childhood obesity do-gooders in positions of power have decided that.....

The Government is set to order manufacturers to shrink the size of chocolate bars and fizzy drinks.

Health Secretary Alan Johnson will tell firms such as Mars, Coca-Cola, Britvic and Nestlé that smaller versions of their products should be available in all garages and corner shops to help stop people piling on weight.

The US is about 10 years behind our mother country when it comes to yeilding our freedoms to smarmy, pencil-necked bureaucrats in government who think they know what's best for us. Mayor Bloomberg is about to regulate the amount of salt in the New York restaurant diet for heaven's sake.



Childhood obesity is about laziness and bad parenting, not portion size of candy bars and fizzy drinks.

"Barak the Magic Negro"--racist or fair political satire?

I guess it was only a matter of time before the media discovered this satirical piece from Rush's show, and pretended to be outraged by it....



On March 19, 2007, the LA Times ran this op/ed in which Barak Obama as the "Magical Negro" is named. Nobody got upset then, why now? Rush has been playing this song since March. And he didn't invent the term "magic negro". It's been around for a long time and refers to the mythical black politician who's supposed to transcend the stereotype whites have of unelectable, hyper-sexualized black men and who makes whites, by their voting for him, feel less guilty about slavery. This applies only to dumb, white liberals, white conservatives would never fall for such hooey.

The satire is more about lampooning Al Sharpton(the singer in this clip), the LA Times, and skewering silly whites for feeling guilty about slavery and segregation, than it is about Obama. I think it's hilarious, totally appropriate, and well within the bounds of acceptable political satire. The manufactured outrage we're seeing now is just the latest, idiotic attack by the liberal media trying to perpetuate the myth that republicans are racists.

Here's how awful the political correctness and dhimmitude has gotten in our mother-country...

For 130 years they have been part of Christmas, filling the air in towns across the land with music and carols.

But one thing is missing from the repertoire of Salvation Army bands this year - the percussion of rattling tins.

Members have been forbidden to shake their charity tins - even if it's done in time to the music - in case it harasses or intimidates people. One said she had been told it might also offend other religions.

Of course "other religions" means "perpetually outraged Muslims".

Our once-great motherland has slouched her way, through cowardice, ignobility, and self-loathing, into a husk of her former self. She is now, nothing but a staging ground for the inevitable Islamification of old Europe. And the Britons willingly subjugate their rich culture in order to please their hostile Muslim overlords.

On the bright side, the did put up with Madonna for us for the last few years.
