Who is Charlie Christ??? A Liberal that's who!!!

Clinton Asked Democrat to Quit Florida Senate Race- WSJ.com

I found this article very interesting seeing how the Governor of Florida, Charlie Crist, was actually at one time a Republican and was even considered by John McCain to be his VP running mate in 2008. I lived in Florida for many years and I actually voted for Charlie Crist when he ran for Governor, but I did it while holding my nose. I have never seen Charlie Crist as anything but a political opportunist, and what has been happening this year has just solidified that belief.

Crist openly embraced Obama when he thought that Obama's popularity and coattails were something he could ride on.  When it became clear that Crist had made a bad call riding those coattails, he then tried to re-brand himself.  Sorry buddy but you made your bed, time to lay in it.  Crist actually thought the majority of Americans supported Obama because of his policies.  Even before the 2008 election, it was clear the main reason Obama was popular was because he spoke well, and he was something different.  He did not act like the prototypical Washington insider.  The problem for Obama became that he then trusted the Washington insiders to advance the liberal agenda.  Crist got snared and painted with the same brush.  Crist is lucky the Republican party does seek reimbursement for all the money they have shelled out for his campaigns through the years.

Back to the article, to me this had nothing to do with Kendrick Meek, but had everything to do with Charlie Crist.  I think Crist openly asked Clinton to request Meek to withdraw, because I see no end to the methods Crist would try to use to try and get elected.  The man has no character and integrity.  He basically drove the Florida economy into the ground and then when he realized that getting reelected would be tough, he decided to bail and try to ride Obama's coattails into the US Senate.  Well Buddy, I sure do hope Kendrick Meek is a man of character and sees you for who you are.  I think a man who stays true to who he is and still loses, is more of a man than one who sells his soul for a political seat.  

Juan Williams Fired From NPR For Muslim Comment - Speakeasy - WSJ

Juan Williams Fired From NPR For Muslim Comment - Speakeasy - WSJ

To me this just shows how Federal funding needs to be removed from Public Television and Radio because it is basically a mouth piece for the liberal media. It should be called "National Pravda Radio". There is nothing bigoted about what Juan Williams said nor is he a bigot for feeling this way. If a Muslim wants to get on a plane in full regalia, then he better be prepared to suffer some quizzical looks and down right mistrust from other people. There is one primary commonality among the hijackers on September 11th as well as the 'shoe bomber", "underwear bomber", the "Mumbai terrorists", and all of the other attacks on western countries the past two decades. All of the attackers were Muslims whose minds have been warped to think that killing innocent people will somehow bring them glory in the after life. For anyone to think different means they are fooling themselves in believing that there is not evil in the world.

To get back to the NPR thing, the only people who continue to listen to NPR as their sole source of news, are the liberals who either cannot or will not pay for other news sources. There is nothing public about public television. Jim Lerher is one of the biggest liberals out there, but he is portrayed on NPR as this respected journalist. He has actually stated that a journalist cannot be biased because it is the viewer who brings the bias to the table. The journalist just reports it as they see it. How backwards can you get!!!! If the journalist reports it as they see it, then that in turn means that they are going to see it through the eyes of their own viewpoints, which means they have already biased the reporting. Just another liberal who wants you to believe that they have some higher calling, are above suspicion and are only looking out for the welfare of others. I think I would rather them come right out and say that they are liberals and that is how they will report the news, than continue on with the charade.

I have never been a big Juan Williams fan and I definitely do not agree with his politics, but what happened to him was wrong in my opinion. I hope NPR gets what should be coming to them and all federal funding be removed from them. They already spend it seems four months out of the year asking for people to donate. That is fine if people what to give to them, but get the taxpayers out of the process.

Noble Peace Prize. WHAT A JOKE!!!

I have always thought the Nobel Peace Prize was a joke.  I can completely understand awards for the other categories, but the Peace prize, how do you quantify peace and it's impact?  They gave it to Yasser Arafat, who was a terrorist and actively supported the killing of Israelis.  Sure this is a person you should give a peace prize too.  They gave it to Kofi Annan at the United Nations, who during his tenure was one of the most corrupt organizations ever known and still is.  The United Nations has done nothing for peace.  Even their so called "peace keepers" continue to commit atrocities in Africa while also allowing atrocities to happen.

Three years ago they gave it to Al Gore for the so called work on climate change which has now proven to be using faulty data.  These so called scientists are using data collected from devices that are either not calibrated correctly or placed in a location where it cannot gain an accurate reading of the temperature.  Even a dummy like me knows that if you put a thermometer next to black asphalt that it will register a higher temp than if it was suspended over grass.  But apparently these climate scientists do not know that.

And then last year, giving the prize to Barack Obama, who has done nothing on the international stage just shows how out of touch the people who give the awards are.  Since I guess Norway is a Socialist country they must give credence to anyone who espouses the same dogma.  I wonder if you can take it back after Barack Obama has basically killed the US economy.  So much for contributing to peace.  Promises do not lead to results.

And then this year, they gave it to a guy in prison in China in the hopes it will lead to more democracy in China.  Just another hopeful presentation of an award.  Now the guy's family is probably imprisoned.  Thanks Nobel.

Through all the years, they never award the prize to individuals who truly deserve it.  They gave it to Gorbechev but not to Reagan, who was probably the more influential in ending the cold war.  But they could not do that because Reagan was a Capitalist not a Socialist.  In 1945 they gave it to Cordell Hull for helping to establish the United Nations but not to Eisenhower or Winston Churchill who led the forces that removed the Nazi party that committed awful atrocities in Europe.  Those two men did more for peace than anything the United Nations has ever done.

I will give profs for two of the selections.  Martin Luther King and Mother Theresa are probably the only two people I would even consider worthy of the award.

Personally I think the Norwegians ought to get heir heads out of the asses and begin to realize that war and peace is a dichotomy and they can not be apart from each other.  Thus to wage war is to also make peace.  To only recognize people who supposedly seek peace, eliminates the fact that their actions can lead to war.
