UPDATED: RIP GOP & Party of Liberty

Democracy, Democrats, Elections, IMMIGRATION, Left-Liberalism And Progressivisim, libertarianism, Multiculturalism, Nationhood, Republicans

Smug, self-satisfied left-libertarians like to dream that their constituency is differently derived, but the demographic facts are straightforward. As the GOP goes, so goes the libertarian movement. We know this, but reminders are necessary: The upshot of continued, unfettered, mass immigration—as it is currently practiced and preached by American central planners—is the triumph of tribalism, pillage politics, and left-liberalism.

Over to Patrick J. Buchanan, in “Suicide of a Superpower”:

“White Americans, who provide nine out of ten Republican votes every presidential year, have fallen to less than two-thirds of the U.S. population and three-fourths of the electorate. Meanwhile, the number of people of color is growing, both as a share of the population and as a share of the electorate. An in presidential elections, people of color vote Democratic—in landslides. Asians vote 60 percent Democratic, Hispanic 60-70 percent, and African American 90-95 percent.” (Page 338.)

POIGNANTLY PUT, “Either the Republican Party puts an end to mass immigration, or mass immigration will put an end to the Republican Party.” (Page 423.)

[SNIP]

Ditto the future of a philosophy (libertarianism) which offers far fewer distributive spoils than does the Republican Party, yet demands from voters more by way of reason, for they must understand that less loot is better for them and their posterity.

The future dispensation of America, once the host population has been swamped and consigned to minority status, will be that of a third-world dominated, dominant-party state.

UPDATE: Texas is most certainly not “stubbornly Republican,” it is barely Republican; it is hanging on to a Republican slim majority by the proverbial hairs of its chinny chin chin:

“For the first time in the state’s history, Texas is now a majority-minority state, and the new round of redistricting will likely create at least one, and probably two majority-minority districts in Texas.” (via Race 4 2012)

Texas won’t be Republican for long.

Michel Cloutier: Canada has a different immigration complexion. It also has a different immigration process. Canada has something of a merit system, although, like the US, the overwhelming numbers of incomers result from the family unification aberration. However, in Canada legal immigration is driven by a point system. You get points for education, language (only English or French: OMG, how chauvinistic) and age. Your profession should also be in-line with the country’s needs. The US is a work-visa system, with one, not-always worthy sponsor acting as a ticket for a tribe.

As Michel points out, Canada has large Chinese and Indian immigration populations, which are somewhat less welfare dependent, more educated and socially conservative, and have less of a representation among the ranks of law-breakers. Are they less inclined to vote liberal?

UPDATED: Once There Was ‘A Christmas Story’ (BHO’s Canine-Centered ‘Holiday’ Card)

Christianity, Family, Film, Hollywood, Religion

Set in the 1940s, “A Christmas Story” depicts a series of family vignettes through the eyes of nine-year-old Ralphie Parker, who yearns for that gift of all gifts: the Daisy Red Ryder BB gun. This was boyhood before “bang-bang you’re dead” was banned; family life prior to “One Dad Two Dads Brown Dad Blue Dads,” and Christmas without the ACLU. …
(By the way, Bob Clark, the director of this magical movie, and his son, were killed by an illegal alien. This says as much about modern-day America as does the dissolution of the prototypical family unit depicted so magnificently in “A Christmas Story.”)

I watch snippets of this gem of a film every year. I’ve written about “A Christmas Story” at least twice. Read “Once There Was ‘A Christmas Story.'”

UPDATE: BHO’S CANINE-CENTERED HOLIDAY CARD. The Canine member of the Obama family is front and center in their “holiday greeting card.” “It features an image of Bo, the Obama family dog, in front of a fireplace in the White House library with a poinsettia and other decorations. The card, which makes no direct mention of Christmas and doesn’t feature a Christmas tree, states: ‘From our family to yours, may your holidays shine with the light of the season.'” (LA TImes)

Sarah Palin told Fox News that she found it “odd” that the card emphasizes the dog instead of traditions like “family, faith and freedom.” She also said that Americans are able to appreciate “American foundational values illustrated and displayed on Christmas cards and on a Christmas tree.”

In his latest (and greatest) book, Patrick Buchanan captures the essence of Barack Obama as an “avatar of the cultural revolution”:

“Pro-gay rights, pro-choice, pro-amnesty, pro-affirmative action, one foot firmly planted in the Third World,” … an Afro-nationalist like Barack Hussein Obama Sr. BHO’s Christianity is the liberation theology preached by his longtime pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright. A man who believes that whites qua whites have “much to answer for.” This “race consciousness and reflexive bias” was revealed in “his reaction to the Sergeant Crowley-Professor Gates affair.”

HAVE A MERRY ONE.

UPDATED: Workers Vs. Voters (Parasites Looking for a Host)

Democracy, Elections, Labor, Left-Liberalism And Progressivisim, Taxation, The State, Welfare

About the New Deal, H.L. Mencken quipped that it divided America into “those who work for a living and those who vote for a living.”

TIME magazine has chosen its archetype hero. He is the voter, not the worker, also known as that habitual “Protester.” The Protester sticks around for lack of anything else to do.

No wonder Tea Party America failed to make it into TIME’s pantheon of protesters. These middle-class, upstanding folks returned to “petty” duties like jobs, families and other such unworldly, provincial preoccupations.

Or in Barack Obama speak: Back they went to their guns, bibles, and bigotries.

Workers unite! You who bear the burden of taxes, unshakable yourselves. Break free from the chains with which the moochers and looters seek to imprison you (using the power of the state, naturally).

UPDATE (Dec. 25): The professional voters cost the professional workers a whole lot:

Los Angeles City Atty. Carmen Trutanich is considering a lawsuit against Occupy L.A. protesters to reimburse the city for damage caused during the occupation of the City Hall lawn. The two-month encampment cost the city at least $2.35 million, not counting repairs to the lawn and fountain outside City Hall, according to a report issued Friday.
Much of that cost — more than $1.7 million — will be added to the growing pool of red ink in this year’s city budget. The Occupy bills will increase an anticipated $72-million shortfall over the next six months, City Administrative Officer Miguel Santana said.

(LA Times)

The AG doesn’t say who she will sue and how. Parasites are like a big amorphous amoeba. This single-celled organism acts in unison because it’s so unevolved. Occupy L.A. is flopping about looking for a viable host.

Merry Xmas.

UPDATE II: War Games: Smash ‘Em & Put Them Together Again

Criminal Injustice, Ethics, Middle East, Military, Morality, Natural Law, Terrorism, The State, War

Look; isn’t Uncle Sam wonderful? This little Pakistani girl below “was burned beyond recognition by a U.S. drone and left for dead in a trashcan. … She was found by a medical mission team two years ago and was described as ‘lucky’ by staff as two other children found with her were killed by the military attack.”

The child was “brought to the U.S. from her home in Pakistan,” where American surgeons patched her up, sort of. That’s the least we Americans can do. One of her new caregivers named the child Shakira, which means thankful. Evidently some dolt thinks little Shakira should be grateful that all the king’s horses and all the king’s men COULD put little Shakira together again.

UPDATE I (Dec. 23): FROM “JUST WAR FOR DUMMIES” (March 12, 2003):

I’m no pacifist. While I don’t condone the lingering American presence in Afghanistan, and while I doubt the abilities of the U.S. military to contain al-Qaida there, I supported going after bin Laden’s group in that country. That was a legitimate act of retaliation and defense, accommodated within St. Augustine’s teachings, whereby a just war is one “that avenges wrongs, when a nation or state has to be punished, for refusing to make amends for the wrongs inflicted by its subjects.”
Al-Qaida was responsible for the murder of 3,000 Americans. The Taliban openly succored the organization and its masterminding leadership. Mr. Bush had asked the hosting Taliban to surrender bin Laden and his gang. The Taliban refused, insisting on defending their murderous guests.

UPDATE II (Dec. 24): In reply to Theodor Lauppert below: And this writer “isn’t generally considered a source for” the strengthening of the positive law, international or other.
