UPDATED: Way To Go, Bros (Clarification)

Barack Obama, Criminal Injustice, Race

The black community’s resistance to a police force with a militarized mindset and arms to match is to be commended. Were Michael Brown a white boy slain for no reason—his “community” of submissives would be slobbering on TV, rather than protesting on the streets. Go bros. (Yes, I know my ghetto is contrived.)

The brown Brown was “an unarmed black teenager, … killed by a police officer in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson, Missouri.” According to Vox.com,

Brown was shot multiple times and killed by a Ferguson police officer in the early afternoon of Saturday, August 9, outside an apartment complex. Brown was unarmed. All shell casings found at the scene were from the police officer’s gun.

Barack Obama is the annoyance in this sad incident, insisting on meddling, as he did for Trayvon Martin.

UPDATE (8/13): It appears from the Facebook thread that I had not made myself clear: The post is in praise of the spirit of the protest, but certainly not of any destruction of private property.

UPDATED: When Cretins ‘Confront’ Creep-In-Chief

Barack Obama, Christianity, Constitution, Founding Fathers, IMMIGRATION, Journalism, Left-Liberalism And Progressivisim, Media, Regulation

In the age of illiteracy and ignorance, newspaper transcripts are obsolete. So rely on memory I must in relaying what one can take away from Obama’s “presser at the conclusion of the Africa Summit.” And it is, chiefly, that the media, whose duty it is to keep the president on his toes, is really really dim.

Again, Obama called Congress a do-nothing Congress (if only this were true), when the Founding Fathers put in place a constitutional scheme that was intended to gridlock, so as to prevent usurpation of power belonging to the people. That the system failed to preserve freedom is beside the point. Obama still gets away with disgorging misleading dross about the constitutional system’s workings.

Just the other day, the creep-in-chief declared that there was no money to protect the border from tidal waves of central-American juveniles. (That too was the fault of a “do-nothing Congress.”) Today, this interloper found plenty taxpayer money to give to “Africa” so that it could unleash the potential of its women, press, medical men (or witchdoctors, as they are called on that continent), civil institutions, on and on. I’d say this was tantamount to throwing good money after bad, if there was any real money to throw about.

The American media, like the army, is internationalist. They like to present themselves as humanitarians, whose sympathies lie with the world’s poor (unless they personally have to step up, whereupon these left-liberals metamorphose into NIMBYs).

Why, one feeble-minded female demanded, was an Ebola drug, developed in the US and still not approved for use due to Food and Drug Administration regs—yes, regulation can indirectly kill—why was it not being provided to “Africa”? (I don’t think American journos understand that “Africa,” like Europe before the European Union, is made up of many countries.) And was it ethical to test the compound on the infected Christian missionaries—Americans all—who contracted the disease when ministering to the sick and afflicted on the continent.

If they could, the journos would take the ZMapp drug away from these saints who deserve a cure. The selfless saints serving the Lord in Africa would probably agree.

Ironclad Safeguards For … The Sovereign

Barack Obama, Bush, Constitution, Crime

The American constitutional system provides the sovereign with ironclad safeguards against accountability.

As was the case with “W,” the national debt alone is reason enough to impeach the sitting president, Barack Obama. But so high is the constitutional threshold for finding a president guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors—that justice is seldom swift or sure. “The procedure for impeachment,” writes historian Paul Johnson, “is that the House presents and passes an impeachment resolution and the Senate convicts, or not, by a two-thirds vote.” (A History of The American People, p. 504.)

According to InfoPlease, Since 1797, the House of Representatives has impeached sixteen federal officials. These include two presidents, a cabinet member, a senator, a justice of the Supreme Court, and eleven federal judges. Of those, the Senate has convicted and removed seven, all of them judges. Not included in this list are the office holders who have resigned rather than face impeachment, most notably, President Richard M. Nixon.”

“The Small Fry.”

It’s a case of crimes and no punishment.

Although preeminent liberal professor Jonathan Turley disagrees, history attests that the Constitution has proven close to useless in safeguarding natural liberties.

A Traitor To His People

Barack Obama, Bush, IMMIGRATION, Private Property

How incompetent is Big Media in the age of the “Internet of Everything”? Having only just disgorged his usual pablum about the surge of dependent minors rushing the Southern border, President Obama’s words are not yet online, except for brief mention on ABC.com. This much I can relay:

Not a word did BHO utter about his initial impetus, which was to reverse the Bush-era law preventing the repatriation of minors from central America. Not a peep.

Minted for the occasion was a new catch phrase or two such as that we “lack the capacity” to control the US border. What happened to the famous pen and phone? Hussein also hammered home a guilt trip about American compassion, the implication being that compassion precludes enforcement and protection of private property stateside.

His promise of more American foreign aid to enable youngsters to remain in their homes of origin only enforced the president’s flippant attitude to the private property of Americans, by which I also mean the safety of our bodies, for they are our prime real estate.
