“The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment of the Socialist program, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.”

Socialist Party presidential candidate Norman Thomas

The Breck Girl struggles to be relevant

Professionally, Silky Pony will never live down that he cheated on his wife with cancer but, he's apparently giving it the old college try....

PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- Former U.S. Sen. John Edwards took another tentative step into the public spotlight Tuesday, speaking at Brown University about extreme poverty around the world and urging Americans to get involved in what he called a "fundamental moral issue."

I'll point out to the Breck Girl that Americans are the most generous people on Earth. Our poor, who enjoy cell phones, color TV's, and microwave ovens live as well as most middle-class Europeans. Moreover, we've poured untold trillions of tax dollars down the crap-hole of Africa and only managed to personally enrich the barbaric dictators there, that, and relieve the white-guilt of stupid liberals in the US. Sorry Silky, but preaching with a straight face, convincingly to struggling Americans about how greedy they are is going to be trickier than hiding your bastard son from your wife. And we see how that worked out for you.

Michelle Obama's phony, soup-kitchen photo-op...BUSTED!!!

The Obama's want us to believe, along with all the other crises they conjure up as justification for their massive expansion of the imperial nanny-state, that there is also a poverty crisis in America. To hear the homeless tell it, they cannot afford rent, basic food, clothing, or any of the essentials of life. The American dream passed them by, they didn't land on Plymouth Rock, Plymouth Rock landed on them, they're the losers in life's lottery.....but they'll be damned if they go without a pair of Air-Jordans, spinning rims, or a cell phone

Here's first lady Michelle Obama serving soup to supposed derelicts in a DC soup kitchen. Homeless and destitute huh? Check out the fance-schmancy photo cell phone on that one dude.

Turns out the helpless among us aren't exactly all that helpless after all.

Thanks to MichelleMalkin.

N.I.M.B.Y....Seattle style

I absolutely love when smug liberals get fish-slapped by their own policies....especially smug, Seattle liberals....

Many residents in Seattle's affluent Magnolia neighborhood are fuming over plans to house homeless people near Discovery Park at soon-to-be-closed Fort Lawton.

At one community meeting, some residents wondered whether homeless housing at the fort would attract wife-beaters, sex offenders and crack addicts. They rolled their eyes when city officials asserted that such housing increases property values. They worried about the impact on schools and scoffed at the idea of homeless people shopping at the closest grocery — which sells pheasant-and-rosemary pâté for $9.99 and ground coffee for up to $18 a pound.

"We're the ones who live here, and we want to have a nice, safe neighborhood to live in," Donald Raz, a King County deputy prosecutor and Magnolia resident, said later.

Like most affluent neighborhoods in Seattle, Magnolia doesn't have any housing for homeless people mainly because land is too expensive for social-service agencies to buy.


Well heaven forbid that a stuck-up, white-bread, silver-spoon democrat has to gaze upon a dirty, unwashed homeless dude while she shops for pate' and gormet coffee. It's real simple. These latte liberals up in Seattle want to house homeless criminals in everybody elses neighborhoods, but never in their own. All that rich, white guilt gets manifested as methadone clinics, half-way houses, and city-owned project homes, not to mention pan-handling, degeneracy, and crime in the neighborhoods of us little people...so the rich liberals can feel good about themselves.

I sincerely hope this housing project succeeds. Seattle's rich deserve it.

Seriously? $18 a pound for coffee? People who pay that much for coffee absolutely deserve to have homeless dudes urinating on their front porches or trying to feel up their snooty wives on a regular basis.

The Urine Test

I have finally found a way to satisfy and resolve some of our tax issues as well as help ease the burden of our illegal immigration issue. It is simple. The Urine Test.

All persons requesting free medical aid, government subsidies, food, and all other "handouts" should be required to pass a simple urine test. No drugs or diseases- your okay and get in line. You got issues, well then partner find another way to get free stuff . Immigrants show up w/o proper documentation, test them. If they can pass the test, get them their short term needs, but detain them until the proper credentials are filled out. Simple easy and cheap. Testing can be done on the spot without expensive labs and can save the government money.

I got this idea this week, as I dealt with a job in Montgomery with the State. All employees of the state are subjected to random urine testing and will have their paycheck withheld for failure to comply with the test, and I found that there are restrictions, including termination, if one doesn't pass. What a great system. expand it and start the unemployed on the road back to being non drug dependent, and toward finding a job. The state could hire many of these people in the newly expanded business of manufacturing urine testing cups and equipment.

I am always looking for new and improved ways to help the less fortunate.
