ONE Simple Question for The McHos-ers

25 Comments

Your ramblings make no sense...

There isn't one coherent thought in this post...or any of your posts for that matter. Do you just type random words and put them together to form a sentence?

Big Mick to Bent One

I warned you in my first blog Bently that my prose was unique and conversational. If you can't handle it, too bad.
As Samuel Johnston (you DO know who he is right?)once said to a critic: "I have found you an argument, sir, I am not obliged to furnish you an understanding."

If you don't dig it, Bently, you don't have to read it, right? Yo mamma didn't make you come here.

re: Simple Question & Just War

Simple question:
If Hillary or Barack are elected we will have to fight everything they come up with tooth and nail. We may not be able to defeat everything they come up with.
If McCain is elected we will have to fight much of what he comes up with and we will be able to defeat some of it. With Bush eager to sign the Scamnesty act and the appearance of an easy slide through the Senate, we defeated it TWICE! We will have to ensure the libs don't get a veto proof majority, though.

re: Just War
I notice you don't have comments enabled on this one.
I was taught in school some 45 (+/- ?) years ago that with citizenship comes the responsibility to keep one's self apprised of what our government is doing at all times. I was lax in doing that until about 7 or 8 years ago and am still having trouble catching up. Now, I would have to classify myself as a Strict Constitutionalist although I'm registered as a Republican. That's going to change when I register with the Constitution Party ( http://www.constitutionparty.com ). No one can send a message to the GOP by not voting, non-voters are not counted. However, a mass exodus to another party WILL be noticed, as will the number of votes that party gets in the General election. Even though it is very small right now, the Constitutional Party is the third largest party in the country.
Did you notice that exit polling in Florida showed that only 25% of the voters for McCain identified themselves as conservatives? He was chosen by Hispanics and Independants! Who knows how many of those Independants were former Democrats?
We MUST vote! We must have conservatives in the House and Senate, and we can send a message (bye-bye) to the GOP at the same time by voting for a Constitutionalist candidate.

Just So You Know

Good Morning, you no doubt have seen my Anti-Irish posts to Hal Donahue. I just wanted to make sure you know they are specifically directed at Hal Donahue and NOT at the The Irish People as a whole. Hal stereotypes folks he doesn’t know from Adam based on their political leanings. I told him if he didn’t cease and desist, I would apply the same standard to him VIA his Irish Surname.

I have to agree with TNhillbilly

We have to have our votes count and be reconized. I feel the only way to do this is vote third party. I will not vote for McCain and i too believe Hillary will cause less damage than McCain. I do not understand why people state we need to hold our noses on this and vote McCain, then work on taking back the party. When and how will we do that if we continue to hold our noses? we get more of what we vote for - we must make a stand now.

Sen McCain

Sir,

You claim to be a pastor, and I have the utmost respect for Pastors but the way you stoop to childish name calling is not respectable and in my opinion it dillutes your message. While I regular attend religious services myself, and have a Deep Faith in the creator and ruler of the Universe, I would believe based on your comments that you are closer to the Rev White then the people that I know who follow Christ. Again that is my opinion based on your childish name calling of a Serving US Senator of eitehr Party.

Secondly you act as if "The Party" is some sort of backdoor cigar smoke filled room to which Conservatives aren't invited. Nothing could be further from the truth. I was in Iraq for the Primary season but what I saw was a conservative vote split between Gov Romney and Gov Huckabee while Sen McCain won. The problem isn't that conservatives didn't get or lost a 'say' it is that they split thier votes.

Your point in not voting for Sen McCain, seems to be largley that you will teach a lesson and surrender to the evilness of a Socialist. But you fail to make clear who it is you will teach?

In 4 to 8 years of Damage, unparreled in the last 40 years that Sen Obama would cause our nation, the moderates in the republican party will slide more left (my opinion) and the next Republican nominee will be Less Conservative. That is a much better read of Human nature then they will beg Conservatives to take charge again.
I Love America and have served her military for about 20 years, but the American People are largely sheeple. Once they taste the seductiveness of stealing others wealth through taxes and open homo marriage, gay in military, pro abortion lifestyle of a Sen Obama the majority will not likely go to a strong Conservative who takes it away from them next.

Volunteer Billy part 1 of several

Dated and TNHillbilly once wonderful girl.
"How mountain girls can love."

OK TN, your point about a real vote for a real party is made. I'll consider it. However, as to the rest:

It's now May, TN, and the odds of that Commiequeer veto proof Congress are way up. Again I ask, what makes anyone think Conservatives will be more victorious in fighting Mac the Knife as Prez then you were The MacChurian Candidate as Senator? And have you noticed that the Congress has even worse ratings then W? But our Moronic Mythical Middle Fellow Cits chose 3 SENATORS from the Do Nothing but Make Things Worse Congress! Again, Allan Keyes pointed out that Mac the Knife has screwed every single Conservative Group--that makes him WORSE than W for Conservatives--how is a MORE Commiequeer Congress and a ANTI-Conservative President going to accomplish your hope? My point remains--McAin't is JUST as bad on nearly EVERY issue as Hillybama.

end part 1 mick

TnBilly part 2

The only issue McAin't is NOT worse on is Iraq--where he IS W. He is MR. SHAMNESTY on the Southern Front, he is JUST as Bad on the Home Front since he will appoint, at BEST, Souters and O'Conners, NOT Scalia's Thomases, and Borks. More Souters and OConners will be just as damaging as more Ginsbergs. We've already SEEN that. Again I ask. What good does it do to hold the Eastern Front while surrendering the Southern and Home Fronts as McAin't has already done?

And there's this: A McAin't victory means the destruction of Reaganism because it validates the Move to the Moronic Mythical Moderate Middle. It institutionalizes Death by Socialism Lite and marginalizes any alternative. You will NOT defeat Shamnesty a third time because the Robber Barons of the GOP will KNOW no amount of irate phone calls sparked by Sean and Rush translates into ANY cost at the ballot box.

Let me be absolutely clear--for Reagan Conservatism we are fighting for our life and by extention the Life of the Republic--if we do not survive the Republic will not. A McCain victory assures our marginalization and the death of the Republic.

WHO is elected OTHER than The MacChurian Candidate is a MOOT point beside the VITAL NECESSITY of making sure it is NOT McAin't.

I say again, I have made a Cogent Prima Facie case that McAin't is MORE damaging to the Republic than Hillybama. THAT has not yet been cogently refuted.

Now as to your point about voting Constitutional, I'll consider it. I agree that simply not showing up may not track, but again the POINT is to ASSURE Mac the Knife's DEFEAT!

Personally I am researching how "None of the Above" can be put on the ballot in all 50 States.

The reason I didn't enable comments is the same reason I haven't checked these since Feb. It is simply too big a temptation to engage here and on TH--you guys are well worth talking to, but I can't afford the time and can't discipline myself to limit it. The reason comment is enabled here is because I forgot to disable it.
The reason I even saw these comments is that I am about to add a new blog.

thanks all of you for your comments. I am sorry I can't engage the way you deserve

Bob the builder part one of two

I don't exactly disagree with you and Tnbilly's point, but remember the original defense was of the Theological Concept that NOT voting might be an act of obedience.

For me in this specific case, it comes down to Priority of effort. To me, it is clear Mac the Knife is the greater long term danger to the Republic and a MUCH greater danger short term and long term to the Reagan Conservative Movement which is the Last Hope of the Republic.

Maverick needs to be shot down first as a matter of highest priority and returned to the political Hanoi Hilton where he learned his politics. Now he's getting rid of Nuke Bunker Busters-just what we need to use on Amentothejihad. You watch, next he'll sign on to the No Cluter Bombs or Mines Nonsense just like he did the No Third Degree--and with equal nonsense. Anyone with half a brain knows the Jihadis don't qualify for the Geneva Convention, so we are legally entitled to execute them. And they don't follow it so we lose nothing by doing so.
Add in No Drilling in Anwr, Shamnesty, McFeingeld and Gang 14 (the ORIGINAL "Gang of 4" was Maoist) and there is every reason to believe the MacChurian Candidate is a MANCHURIAN Candidate indeed. And feel free to call me a Tin Foil Beenie Head--it is not beyond the bounds of plausibility that the Chi Coms could be "running" all three Candidates. Nearly every position the three take is more favorable to the Chicoms then to American Liberty.

mick

bobbuilder part 2

Only after Mac the Knife is well and truly crushed, will I expend effort on sending any other message. If I can do both at the same time, fine and dandy, but Kinfe Mac First. As a fighter pilot he would understand the principle of downing your biggest threat first.

If the Constitution Party runs somebody who I find worth listening to, I might. But I really do prefer the message "None of the above" sends to BOTH and ALL parties. See my latest blog for the disappointment I have in the Libertarians who seem worthy of nothing but distain, contempt and mockery.

But again, I agree, if we can shoot down maverick AND let the pollsters know WE did it, that's a Win Win.

Tinslider it will be a pleasure to elu-

Part one of Many

1. "You claim to be a pastor"
Don't claim, am. You don't believe me that's your look out. But I'd suggest that doubting people's word because you disagree with their prose style doesn't lead you down any useful LOGICAL paths.

2."and I have the utmost respect for Pastors" to quote the Good Book "in this you do well". You are supposed to. I am not YOUR Pastor, however, so you don't necessarily owe me respect. Again, however, to refuse it on the basis of Prose Style is a stroll down Emmotional Illogic Lane.

3."but the way you stoop to childish name calling is not respectable and in my opinion it dillutes your message." How much of my stuff have you read, Tin? I've made quite a case all over TH that the Lilly Gloved Old Maid Aunts who get the vapors over pointed metaphors do more harm to both Reaganism and the Republic than the most Stalinist Commiequeer in the States.
I agree with C.S. Lewis that a Warrior is Courteous even to enemies and Courteous Words or Hard Blows are his only language. On the other hand Lewis is dead right that ANY restriction on STYLE--and you are DOING that by your reaction, is a censorship of IDEAS!

tinslider part 2 of many

You remind me, slider, of a guy who won't eat bacon cause Pigs smell. You are so hyper sensitive to rhetorical "odure" that you ignore the point all together.

Tolerable if we were playing the commiequeers by Marquis of Queensberry Rules.

We ain't. This is a knife fight in a pig sty, tin and it's the Future of Reaganism and the Republic at stake.

I will not make nice with those who threaten it any more than I would make nice with Hitler or Stalin or Tojo or Mao. As a military man you should know how far THAT works.

Theolgically it is called "naming the sin" Tin, and it is a concept beloved of the Great Ethicist at Duke, Stanley Hauerwas. Who cusses like a Sailor, bro.

tinslider part next of many

"While I regular attend religious services myself, and have a Deep Faith in the creator and ruler of the Universe". Good for you "even the demons believe and tremble." By the way, if you ain't refering to Jesus, then your belief ain't doing you a bit of good.

"I would believe based on your comments that you are closer to the Rev White then the people that I know who follow Christ. Again that is my opinion based on your childish name calling of a Serving US Senator of eitehr Party."

Tinny, Tinny, Tin, how much history have you read? Do you know there were Senators who took CANES to each other? The Great Statesman, Winston Churchill, once called his equivalent of the Sec. Treasury "a spineless wonder".
And you question my Christianity because I call a back stabbing lying illegitmate a back stabbing lying illegitmate? Defend HIS actions, don't challenge MY nomenclature.

Do your really think Senators, or even decorated War Heroes are INCAPABLE of betraying their country? You DO know who Benedict Arnold is don't you? Do you really think Teddy Kennedy should be shielded from the Consequences of Chapaquitick because he is a Senator? That Robert Byrds RACISM doesn't count because HE is?

You deny my credentials and criticize me for what I CALL them, while refusing to criticize them FOR WHAT THEY HAVE DONE!!!

To quote the Great Gump, Tin, "Stupid is as Stupid does." You'd be further ahead to go after them for their ACTIONS which have the force of LAW in infringing upon our Sacred Liberties then after me for calling them on it.

next tenny, couple to go

Secondly you act as if "The Party" is some sort of backdoor cigar smoke filled room to which Conservatives aren't invited." Nothing could be further from the truth. I was in Iraq for the Primary season but what I saw was a conservative vote split between Gov Romney and Gov Huckabee while Sen McCain won. The problem isn't that conservatives didn't get or lost a 'say' it is that they split thier votes.

Tinny, Ann Coulter, Michelle Malkin and others have proved, beyond a reasonable doubt, that neither Mitt nor Huck were CONSERVATIVE!

I didn't say Conservatives didn't have a "say". But as Stalin says, "I don't care how they vote as long as I count." I maintain the Plan of the Gilt Bird Cabin Rockerfella Robber Barons was to make SURE no Anti-Amnesty Candidate was viable.
70% of the American People were AGAINST Hillybama and McShame. It was THE winning issue--you explain why 70% of the American people have no Anti-amnesty candidate to vote for.


mick


tenny next to last probably

"Your point in not voting for Sen McCain, seems to be largley that you will teach a lesson and surrender to the evilness of a Socialist. But you fail to make clear who it is you will teach?"

The Robber Baron Establishment Party Bosses and the Rank and File Rockafella Moronic Mythical Moderate Goppers.

The alternative is the Death of Reaganism.

In 4 to 8 years of Damage, unparreled in the last 40 years that Sen Obama would cause our nation, the moderates in the republican party will slide more left (my opinion) and the next Republican nominee will be Less Conservative. That ain't what happened after Jimmy Carter is it Tin!?"

What America needs is another does of Jimmy to remind them what Dumbolcrap Commiqueerism DOES to them.

How does what you propose HAULT the slide to Commiequeerdom? How can you get a LESS Conservative Candidate then Mac the Knife?


"I Love America and have served her military for about 20 years, but the American People are largely sheeple. Once they taste the seductiveness of stealing others wealth through taxes and open homo marriage, gay in military, pro abortion lifestyle of a Sen Obama the majority will not likely go to a strong Conservative who takes it away from them next."

And Mac the Knife prevents this HOW?

His Socialism LITE goes the same place more surely! Which has always been my whole point.

globalism/new world order

Call me a tin foil beenie head it you want, but I think it plausible the Robber Baron Rockafella Establishment Party bosses made SURE America would have no Anti-Amnesty candidate.


It isni't plausible it's fact.

Here's some interesting info on Buckley and NR.

“One of the most curious publications to join the list of CFR interlocked journals is the ostensibly conservative magazine National Review. Although National Review has in the past claimed to be an opponent of the Eastern Liberal Establishment, it has never called attention the conspiratorial activities of the Rockefeller Dynasty- and, it fact, has bitterly ridiculed anyone who suggested that there were any conspiratorial wolves mixed in with the Liberal sheep. Many well-informed conservatives were puzzled by National Review’s refusal to consider the possibility that most of the liberal “mistakes” the magazine decried were actually carefully planned and deliberate acts; their bewilderment is bound to increase when they learn that editor-in-chief William F. Buckly,Jr., who has boasted of his personal friendship and warm admiration for such important insiders as Henry Kissinger (uber globalist), and who enthusiastically endorsed Nelson Rockefeller for Secretary of Defense, is himself a member of the Counsel on Foreign Relations.” Gary Allen

From "The Rockefeller File" which I highly recommend.

This election was over before it began.

Have you read up on CFR?
Jerome Corsi is the man and he is on it. He is also a Christian.

After reading the article below read his archives. The agenda for the NAU is ADVANCED and I expect the next president to preside over the end of our country as we know it. I believe when we go down we will take the world with us.

too many to post them all. As Christians we should not be caught unawares. We are to recognize the signs. Israel was the super sign and set the timer. Their current goal for the NAU is 2010. They have been at this for a LONG time. I believe the weakness of the church, which is the only thing that stands as a bastion against the advancement of evil is asleep at the wheel. In fact we are seeing the birth of the apostate church in this country. emergent church, post evangelical, etc. This includes Saddleback, Olsteen, etc.

Go to Kudlow's latest article and read the posts. The whole global warming hoax is how they will ration energy.

“It is Kissinger’s belief, according to his aides, that by controlling food, one can control people, and by controlling energy, especially oil, one can control nations and their financial systems. By placing food and oil under international control along with the world’s monetary system, Kissinger is convinced a loosely knit world gov operating under the frame-work of the United Nations can become a reality before 1980” Paul Scott (in the 70’s)

New world order cont

We are likely to do better by building our “house of world order” from the bottom up rather then from the top down… an end run around national sovereignty eroding it piece by piece, is likely to get us to world order faster than the old-fashioned frontal assault. Richard Gardner CFR

We shall have world government whether or not you like it-by conquest or consent. Paul Warburg (CFR member, before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee Feb 17,1950 Also founder of Federal Reserve. He became a director of the CFR at its founding in 1921, remaining on the board until 1932.)

“Before such a merger can be consummated, and the US becomes just another province in a New World Order, there must at least be the semblance of parity among the senior partners in the deal. How does one make the nations of the world more nearly equal? The insiders determined that a two-prong approach was needed; use American money and know-how to build up your competitors, while at the same time use every devious strategy you can devise to weaken and impoverish this country. (The plan IS to de-industrialize the US) The goal is not to bankrupt the US...Rather, it is to reduce our productive might, and therefore our standard of living, to the meager subsistence level of the socialized nations of the world.

New world order cont

Notice that the plan is not to bring the standard of living in less developed countries up to our level, but to bring ours down to meet theirs coming up.

You may be assured, however, that the Rockefellers and their allies are not talking about reducing their OWN quality of life. It is your standard of living which must be sacrificed on the altar of the New world Order. Gary Allen

Who are some of the past and present members of this anti-American operation? Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice, Colin Powell, Donald Rumsfeld, Porter Goss, Alan Greenspan, John Bolton, Paul Wolfowitz, Gen. Richard B. Myers, Henry Hyde, Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, George Bush Sr., Sandra Day O'Connor, George Soros, Christopher Dodd, Diane Feinstein, Gerald Ford, Bill Frist, Newt Gingrich, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Katherine Harris, Teresa Heinz, Antonia Hernandez – President of Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Gen. John P. Jumper – current Air Force chief of staff, Joseph Lieberman, John McCain, Rupert Murdock, David Rockefeller, Diane Sawyer and Tony Snow


“But if more nations achieved independence in food production, much of the impetus for world gov would disappear faster than a freeloader when the check arrives. In order for the Rockefellers to achieve their New word Order, first they must create famines and the fear of further suffering. All that is required to create a famine is to put all agriculture under control of gov. bureaucracy, then wait awhile. The bigger the bureaucracy, the shorter the wait, and international bureaucracy is the 'ne plus ultra' in producing red tape instead of wheat."


Everything that is going on is just the symptom. Globalism is the disease.

one world gov

As Christians we know this is going to happen.

It is happening. CFR/multinational co own the gov. All the candidates are in the bag. Bush is a scumbag traitor too.

People are just sleeping through the whole thing.

“The ten horns of the beast are ten kings who have not yet risen to power. They will be appointed to their kingdoms for one brief moment to reign with the beast. They will all agree to give him their power and authority. Together they will go to war against the Lamb, but the Lamb will defeat them because he is Lord of all lords and King of all kings. And his called and chosen and faithful ones will be with him.” Rev 17 12-14

“Then he said to me, This fourth beast is the fourth world power that will rule the earth. It will be different from all the others. It will devour the whole world, trampling and crushing everything in its path. Its ten horns are ten kings who will rule that empire. Then another king will arise, different from the other ten, who will subdue three of them. He will defy the Most High and oppress the holy people of the Most High. He will try to change their sacred festivals and laws, and they will be placed under his control for a time, times and half a time.” Dan 7:23-25

10 kings...EU, NAU, SAU, etc.

Big Mick...

You are one of the most honest, sincere, logically thinking patriots I have ever had the pleasure to come across.

I started reading your most recent and could not put you down until reading it all.

You espouse the essence of conservative values and methodology as only a very few have the gray matter to do. Your take on giving ground being surrender is exact in content and intent as those preached by Rush, Ms. Anne, (I would marry her in a flash), and the late, great Wm. F. Buckley, Jr., God rest his soul.

It is refreshing and inspirational to find your writings, and brings a smile to my heart to partake of your wit.

Onward Christian-American soldier. Onward through the fog.

I am a Conservative, Endowment Life member of the NRA, electrical/mechanical engineer; I too believe we are heading in the wrong direction in our country.

From legalized murder (abortion), "gay" rights shoved down my throat, and to politicians who cannot be believed at all; we have got to get this country back to the "Light".
