Voter ID program apparently good for Kenyans, but not for Americans

In addition to wasting $100,000,000, appropriated from resentful US taxpayers, on the dark continent, President Obama is also establishing a voter-ID program in the country of his birth.....

In Kenya, the $53 million Yes Youth Can program empowers nearly one million Kenyan youth to use their voices for advocacy in national and local policy-making, while also creating economic opportunities. In advance of Kenya’s March 2013 general elections, Yes Youth Can’s “My ID My Life” campaign helped 500,000 youth obtain National identification cards, a prerequisite to voter registration…

Why what a brilliant idea! Having voters prove who they are to prevent them from making a farce out of elections. If it's good enough for Kenya, why isn't it good enough for the US? 

Short answer: because democrat politicians know that rampant voter fraud is likely the difference in winning and losing close elections and their stranglehold on power isn't something they want to leave to the chance of the vote. 

Liberalism in a word

I've said it nine ways from Sunday and until I'm blue in the face, but this pretty much sums it up......

Mark Kelly shamefully uses his addled wife to make a living

I guess when your career as an astronaut is over and you look like a creepier version of Uncle Fester, you've got to do something for a living and Mark Kelly is dragging his addled wife, Gabby Giffords, around the country using her as a victim-prop for his gun control speeches. No doubt they get paid handsomely for speeches and appearances, especially with the full encouragement of the democrat party.

Look at her permanent, vacant, confused expression. It's shameful that he uses her this way. He coaches her on every word she struggles to utter as if his hand is up her dress operating her like a muppet.

No word on if during his speeches, he addresses his illegal purchase of an AR-15 or if he intends to turn in the 17-round magazine he owns for it.

Racism in America is bad, except of you're black and beneficial to Obama, then it's fine

You may remember King Samir Shabazz, he was the Black Panther with a club threatening white voters at a Philly polling place, but who got off clean after Obama appointed the virulent racist Eric Holder as AG. Well, he got busted again, this time for an illegal loaded fire arm, but as the chief of Obama's voter-intimidation enforcement division, no doubt a simple phone call to Obama and the whole thing will disappear and he can go back to hating whitey some more, exactly as Obama and Holder have approved.

The Great and Powerful Woz is a fan of Ed Snowden

The Great and Powerful Woz - Apply co-founder Steve Wozniak, is calling Edward Snowden his "hero" for exposing the NSA's Prism program in which massive spying on private citizens without warrants, in Woz's view, threatened the Constitution and violated the spirit of the Internet. He sees Snowden as a patriot and an idealist. The jury is still out on that, but it's hard to argue with Woz. 

Side note: the pardon petition for Snowden surpassed 100,000 signatures this week, which means Obama must address it. Obviously he won't pardon Snowden, but his being forced to address the petition regarding a topic that he's stayed as far away from as possible, is comical a the least. 

All our enemies, China and Russia specifically, have used Snowden to humiliate Obama. And he can't do anything about it. This is why he's staying away from talking about it.

New Jersey home invasion.....If you don't have a gun in your home, watch this, then get one

Don't have a gun in your house? Maybe after watching this violent home invasion in an upscale NJ neighborhood, you'll consider getting one......


If Obama had a son, he'd look like this guy.

The democrat party, always friendly to criminals over law-abiding citizens, doesn't want you to be able to defend yourself against human trash like this guy. A weapon gives you autonomy and power to control your own life.....the democrat party cannot allow citizens to have autonomy and power.

If you're a politically favored Hispanic, it pays to be a criminal. If you're American, not so much.

Take a few minutes to read through this table. It shows how the third-world colonists with whom our representatives in DC intend to displace us are among the most favored class when it comes to committing crimes......

That any, ANY elected representative would dare give criminals law-enforcement priority over the American citizens whose wallets these very representative loot to finance the invasion of those criminals, is treacherous almost beyond belief. What more evidence do we need that our government is actively hostile to the Americans they pretend to represent, before we rise up with pitch-forks and torches and throw the bastards out?

Birmingham's crime ranking is symptom of political failures

The good news: Birmingham is nationally ranked for something. The bad news: we're #11 on the most dangerous cities in America, right between Philadelphia and Newark, NJ. Here are our sad statistics.....

31 murders per 100,000 people

71 forcible rapes per 100,000 people

461 robberies per 100,000 people

Now, it must be recognized that Birmingham is basically two cities....Birmingham-proper, northside, and Westend which is where 99% of the violent crime is, and what we call Over-the-Mountain or the burbs south of town. 

The city where I live, Hoover, which is a suburb of Birmingham was bragging the other day about not having any killings so far this year. The next day, a body was found behind a gas station....we joked that he was probably killed somewhere else and dumped there just to make the suburbs appear as dangerous as the city, but who knows?

You may remember that Jefferson County is trying to dig out of the largest municipal bankruptcy in US history....every bit of it due to political corruption and utter incompetence, the kind of municipal corruption that breeds indigence, dependence, and crime. It's no coincidence that like other failing American cities like Detroit, New Orleans, Oakland, Cleveland, and DC, Birmingham has been (mis)managed entirely by democrats for generations. (24 politicians an cronies are in jail for corruption). 

Birmingham proper only has about 250,000 people that account for all this crime, but the metro area is well over 1million. Rather than improving the city for everyone, everything in B'ham is still about the civil-rights movement.....no event happens here without including a curtsy to civil rights struggle of 60 years ago. The irony is that by trying to show how far we've come in all things racial, we've mired ourselves in our own past.  

The treachery of US politicians is as boundless as it is shameful

These are the third-world peasants with whom the farcical traitors that refer to themselves as our government intend to replace us with this travesty of an immigration bill. Late-night horse trading resulted in some changes in the bill that'll be voted on. Included among them is the waiver that businesses who hire newly legalized aliens don't have to count them among employees who must be covered under Obamacare.

This is a huge incentive for businesses subject to Obamacare mandates to hire aliens and fire American workers.

But then that's the real end-game of our government to begin with isn't it....to displace as many American citizens as possible with indigent, third-world peasants by the millions who'll submissively vote for sitting politicians to keep the goody bags of other peoples' money coming to them?

The religion of peace strikes again

In Pakistan, the Taliban are busily dissuading girls from doing anything except covering themselves head to toe and sitting around the house, by throwing acid in their faces. The Taliban frown upon acting, singing, going to school, talking to a man, or any other activity that normal women have done throughout human history.

And this is the same group with whom Obama wants to negotiate a peace settlement in Afghanistan....my guess is because the US military cannot defeat them. Did we learn nothing from Russia's efforts with the Taliban 30 years ago? Somehow Obama sees a difference between Al Qaeda and the Taliban. In terms of human rights, I do not.

You cannot negotiate with dirty Muslims whether they are Al Qaeda or Taliban. There is no such thing to either as "good faith", and Obama is a rube and an amateur for believing that there is.
