Political Misses

List of political sci-fi books

2009-11-27T16:49:00.005-05:00

A list of libertarian, anti-authoritarian, anarchist, and other political leaning sci-fi books and authors I intend to check out of the next year. Some of these I've already read, leaving as a complete list though to share with my sons and others. Note - I gather these from various sites and some will be pro-socialism or pro-capitalism/markets depending on the person I found the link from. Those in italics came from Libertarian Futurist Society and those in bold italics were winners or in the Hall of Fame.

Glenn Beck and American Mothers Challenge

2009-10-02T17:46:00.001-04:00

This project, As A Mom - “A Sisterhood of the mommy patriots”, was started shortly after the show. Below is the lady who started it talking with Glenn Beck on the phone.

Here's the Glenn Beck special from 09-28-09. Today, 10-02-09, he followed up on his show with three of the moms. I'll post the video's once they get on youtube from glennbeckclips.com .

Union School teachers, Obama as President, and your kids

2009-09-29T18:53:00.001-04:00

Sand Hill Venable Elementary in NC. WND has the lyrics in their story.

The "more info" section under the YouTube page for this one also has the lyrics. This was filmed at the B. Bernice Young Elementary School in Burlington, NJ and uploaded on June 19, 2009.

Here's Glenn's take on it

Here's the side statement of the post, "Barack Obama is Our New President - Ms. Susan Marsico's Kindergarten music class sings about President Barack Obama. Performed: Friday, February 13, 2009 Harmony Leland Elementary School, Mableton, GA"

Encourage you to read the [more info] link on the YouTube page for this one as well.

This one is probably innocent enough. Here's the side statement, "As President Obama became our new President and as we recently celebrated the history of Martin Luther King Jr, our Native American community, including my kindergarten class, felt a sense of pride and hope for all minorities around the world... this song is a celebration of that hope and a reminder that the world is our opportunity!"

Foreign film produces talking in the beginning and then it's shows the classroom.

I don't agree with the posters assumption or statement they put at the front of the video by the way.

Youtube side comment, "A Kansas City teacher has been suspended - and may be subjected to legal action - for producing a video (the link is to the video) of his students in military formations in support of Barack Hussein Obama and posting it on the Internet."

The Story Of Stuff - Tides [a progressive group] put out this movie and it's playing in schools. I'll list the Glenn Beck bit on it first and then the critique and then a link to the original.

Original - Story of Stuff, Full Version; How Things Work, About Stuff

This one is at a private home - NOT AT A SCHOOL.

Here's some references about students having required community service: summoned, mandatory or forced? And a video of President Obama speaking about it during the election cycle:

Ok, this one isn't done with children or teachers...but it never gets old to laugh at.

And a nice improvement to the "I Pledge" video:

Here's Penn Says, on Pledging to be a Servant

Reagan and a Tax-payers Bill of Rights

2009-09-28T13:15:00.001-04:00

This was short but interesting.

The Word Game

2009-09-28T00:30:00.001-04:00

Is Barack Obama, a Fabian Socialist ?

Fabians believed in gradual nationalization of the economy through manipulation of the democratic process. Breaking away from the violent revolutionary socialists of their day, they thought that the only real way to effect "fundamental change" and "social justice" was through a mass movement of the working classes presided over by intellectual and cultural elites.

Obama's speech at Clintons Global Initiative [CGI]

2009-09-27T13:40:00.001-04:00

Complete Text of speech. Below is not the full speech, as numerous paragraphs were dedicated to ass kissing.

I first saw it in my mother -- she was an anthropologist who dedicated her life to understanding and improving the lives of the rural poor, from Indonesia to Pakistan. Whether working with USAID or the Asian Development Bank, the Ford Foundation, Bank Rakyat in Jakarta or Women's World Banking here in New York, she championed the cause of women's welfare and helped pioneer the micro loans that have helped lift millions from poverty.

She pioneered micro loans? Really?

My mother understood that whether you live in the foothills of Java or the skyscrapers of Manhattan, we all share common principles; justice and progress, tolerance and the dignity of all human beings. And we all share common aspirations, for ourselves and our children: to get an education, to work with dignity, and to live in peace and security.

That's where I first saw that spirit. That's who planted it in me. And I saw this spirit again when I moved to Chicago, working as a community organizer on some of the poorest streets in some of the poorest neighborhoods in the United States; in neighborhoods devastated by steel plant closings, I worked with local churches to help people in need. And change didn't come easy, but with a lot of time and effort, it did come -- block by block, neighborhood by neighborhood.

That's when I learned that real progress does not just come from the top down, not just from government, it comes from the bottom up -- from people. (Applause.) If you want to bring about change in the world, you can't just be an advocate of somebody else doing it. You can't just preach lofty goals and wait for somebody else act. You have to step up. You have to serve.

Who "fixed" the problems in these poor communities you were a community organizer Mr. President? Was it not from those on top and from the government?

I've seen this spirit of service in my wife Michelle -- one of the millions of people whose lives has been touched by
AmeriCorps, created by President Clinton. She left her job at a law firm to be the founding director of an AmeriCorps program in Chicago that trains young people for careers in public service. I've seen the transformation that occurs -- in their lives, in hers -- when people are empowered to live their dreams.

Thanks for reminding me about Michelle and Americrop, seems like she's still has her heart there.

And that's the spirit that's represented here tonight -- in the difference that CGI members have made around the world. The greenhouse gases you've cut. The entrepreneurs you've empowered with micro loans. All the people, many of them children, you've helped to lead healthier, more productive lives -- more than 200 million in more than 150 countries.

If only you thought the micro loans worked the same way in the U.S. as compared to the really, really, big loans to those that are to big to fail.

Reckless speculation in any financial sector of the world, or someone's failure to pay a mortgage in Florida, can contribute to a global recession that undermines all of us. Poverty in Somalia, the poppy fields of Afghanistan, the northbound flow of drugs from Colombia and the southbound flow of American guns and cash into Mexico -- all this fuels violence that endangers each and every one of us. A flu that starts in one country can become a pandemic that sickens millions.

Guess he didn't get the memo about Mexico and U.S. guns.

In short, we need a new spirit of global partnership. And that is exactly the spirit that guides this organization; I hope that it is the spirit that guides my administration.

Here at home, we've summoned the American people to a new era of service: launching a historic expansion of community service; more than tripling the size of AmeriCorps; creating a new model -- an innovation fund to bring together nonprofits, foundations, the private sector and government to find the community solutions that work, to fund them and then replicate them across America.

Was that summoned, mandatory or forced? Ya, we heard you say this before:

In short, we're renewing development as a key element of American foreign policy -- not by lecturing and imposing our ideas, but by listening and working together; by seeking more exchanges between students and experts; new collaborations among scientists to promote technological development; partnerships between businesses, entrepreneurs to advance prosperity and opportunity for people
everywhere.

Man, he just can give a speech without pointing out some real or imagined failing of the U.S. prior to his own administration taking over. I guess all the HIV/AIDS policies for Africa that Bush advocated was just him imposing his own ideas on them.

Healthcare Options - from Glenn Beck New Book

2009-09-27T02:17:00.001-04:00

I doubt many would buy/read Glenn Beck's new book, "Arguing With Idiots" just because I recommend it but I think everyone will be interested in some of the information about health care that he has in there. Things that could help the uninsured or those overly charged and insured. I wasn't aware of a number of these options.

CVS [500], Walgreens [400], and Walmart have been opening up clinic at many of their location and have been having price wars on generics. Clinic costs are about 1/2 of normal doc visit and 1/6 of emergency room.

Walmart, $10 for 90-day supply for most generic drugs. Walgreens, $12 for 90-day supply [400 types]. CVS, $9.99 for 90-day supply [100's of types]. And so forth.

Buy your own health insurance.
http://ehealthinsurance.com

Price what medical treatments should cost.
http://healthcarebluebook.com

Want a 3AM call from a doctor on the cheap?
http://www.teladoc.com/ - for $35 you'll be on the phone with a doc within 3 hours.

Want a doctore via online, webcam, IM, phone or text?
http://www.americanwell.com/ for $45
Walmart is now setting up virtual clinic's that will use things like webcam's and so forth.

How about prepaying up front [$500/yr] and then avoiding larger costs and what looks to be most other costs as well later?
http://www.noinsuranceclub.com/

And there's also the story of Dr. John Muney who wanted to offer a plan to his patients that for $79 a month they could have unlimited appointments with him. But that wasn't a no-no for the State Insurance Department of New York - they said it was to cheap. They later settled - he had to charge more and cover less.

Here's a group trying to do the same thing....

O'cult and Obama's 3 R's : Rappin’, revolution & radicalism [Michelle Malkin]

Love the use of O'cult in this article by Michelle Malkin.

The 3 R’s in the Age of Obama: Rappin’, revolution & radicalism

Here's some music to put you at ease

And health care community organizers now praying to him? Michelle Malkin has the story here. Video below.

Which reminds me of all the crazy new-age occult crap Oprah is into. Now, before you reject the video's simply because it's done by people that talk about Anti-Christ and so forth, ask yourself why you don't discount Oprah just as equally then for such a silly idea? And if you don't think Oprah's religious beliefs are silly, then... Well, I'll be nice and say nothing at all on that.

Morning Joe [Scarborough] Hating On Glenn Beck

2009-09-25T19:36:00.001-04:00

A running log on the envy, I mean disagreements that Morning Joe has with Glenn Beck. Usually they amount to examples of Joe running his mouth before his coffee offering proof that he never heard or listen to the orginal source that he's now ragging on Glenn Beck about.

Let's Check A Running Long Of @JoeNBC 's tweets:

@RIGHTone Actually, liberals love Glenn Beck because he makes it so much easier to marginalize real conservatives who fight with ideas. 6:53 PM Sep 22nd
Will a GOP Presidential hopeful for 2012 have the courage to condemn Beck in tough terms for saying Barack Obama "hates white people"? 1:58 PM Sep 21st from web
Pete Wehner on why Glenn Beck bad is for American conservatism: http://www.commentarymagazine.com/blogs/index.php/category/contentions 1:57 PM Sep 21st from web
FINALLY! A prominent conservative intellectual says Glenn Beck harmful to the conservative movement. Read Pete Wehner's Commentary piece. 1:56 PM Sep 21st from web
@JamilSmith The "easy" stance would be to play to one side or another like Beck, Palin, Moyers or Carter. Unlike most, I challenge all sides 1:03 PM Sep 21st
Funny how liberals love me calling out Beck but can't take truth about Moyers. 12:00 PM Sep 21st
But at least on Morning Joe, we don't accuse Democrats of being racists (Beck) or Republicans of launching theocracies (Moyers). 5:28 AM Sep 21st from web
@billieraven You have to ask if Glenn Beck is real journalism? Poor thing. He is not. Not even close. Reminds me of Bill Moyers. 5:23 AM Sep 21st
@rfbarnes They are both blinded by ideology. Moyers plays to the hard Left and Beck to the hard Right. Neither are objective. Not close. 5:22 AM Sep 21st
@adrianinflorida Who thinks Beck is real journalism? He's just as biased on the Right as Moyers is on the Left. Just preaching to the choir. 5:20 AM Sep 21st
@probert06 Moyers has always foamed at the mouth the second his party got voted out of power. Glenn Beck, meet Bill Moyers. Your soul mate. 8:06 PM Sep 20th
@TheyGaveUsARep You asked me to give examples of hate speech on the Left that matched Rush and Beck. I gave a very personal example. 1:56 PM Sep 19th
@Zakkalicious What is the KO game? Laughing at Beck telling Mika to shut up? Would you rather us have been angry? We try not to do "angry." 10:19 AM Sep 18th
@SallyInUtah Beck put the FEMA concentration stories into the national debate for a month saying "I can't debunk them!" He eventually did. 10:40 PM Sep 17th
@BMoreJAG Definitely. Glenn Beck calling the president a racist is equally offensive. That's why I called that statement dangerous. 6:16 PM Sep 16th
Some other Bible verses for Mr. Beck. "Judge not that ye be not judged." Matthew 7:1. 1:49 PM Sep 12th
Beck just quoted the Bible about "fighting against darkness and spiritual wickedness in high places." 1:27 PM Sep 12th

Kenneth Gladney [in brown shirt], a black conservative is beat up by SEIU union members. One of them, himself black, was heard calling Kenneth the n* word. The beginning starts off with one SEIU member falling backwards -- when Ken, on his back, was ...able to eventually kick the SEIU members off of him.

and also:

Rep. Russ Carnahan on the SEIU beatings:

I found this very insightful:

...we have been losing something vital in America: the commitment to
individual liberty and the understanding that as government grows,
liberty shrinks.

And then later:

I also want to undertake exercises in understanding libertarianism, the
philosophy of freedom, which used to be called "liberalism."
