AFL-CIO Hires Useful Idiots to Attend #OccupyPortland

November 13, 2011 1 Comment

It is apparent that the “Occupy Wall Street” is growing increasingly dangerous with each day. Fox News Channel reported this morning about “Occupy Portland” and the dire situation there.

Here’s another video from Dear Citizen’s Justen Charters:

I met this protester on eviction day for Occupy Portland. He tried to hand me a 99% sign. Because the Union told him too.

UCSD Calls for Freedom of Speech in E-mail

April 21, 2011 4 Comments

A campus-wide email sent on April 21st, 2011, to UCSD students calls for reverence for the First Amendment and freedom of speech.

I presume this comes after the University of Iowa incident where a gender studies professor told the College Republicans to “F*** off”.

Let’s hope that our administration respects the First Amendment rights of conservatives, pro-Israel advocates, and those that are often silenced on campus. Activist groups like the SJP, MSA, ASU, etc. wrongly accuse them of hate and try to suppress their right to express their viewpoints. Remember, practice free speech–not hate speech.

ALL ACADEMICS, STAFF AND STUDENTS AT UCSD

SUBJECT:  Respect for Our Colleagues During Discourse and Debate

As an internationally recognized institution of higher learning, UC San
Diego thrives on the spirited exchange of ideas as we prepare tomorrow’s
leaders and discover new knowledge to benefit society.  Discourse and
debate are natural in the halls of our great university, with those
discussions grounded in the principles of freedom of thought and freedom
of speech. During our discussions, it is imperative that we remain civil
and professional in order to preserve the integrity of our educational
environment and to ensure that our dialogue contributes to and enriches
the diversity of our campus.

Each of us bears the responsibility to respect and conduct ourselves
with civility toward our academic and student colleagues, especially as
we discuss issues that are politically charged and that touch us deeply
and personally.  The purpose of higher learning is to open our minds, to
challenge our long-held views, and to advance the pursuit of knowledge.
 From early morning classrooms to late night meetings of student
organizations, UC San Diego provides myriad avenues for these
discussions. As we listen and learn from one another—whether or not we
agree with differing perspectives—we aspire to the ideals embodied in
our Principles of Community.

We affirm our commitment to the First Amendment and Academic Freedom, as
envisioned by the founders of our country and our university. We
strongly urge all members of our campus community—students, faculty and
staff—to be guided by reason and respect as we debate the issues of our
complex world.

Leftist “Brilliance” and “Civility” Emanates Following Protests

February 28, 2011 2 Comments

After Van Jones and other progressive organizers called for rallies nationwide this past weekend, the unhinged left continued their “civil” tactics amid the passage of Governor Walker’s (R-WI) anti-union bill.

While they accuse conservatives of being “fascist,” “mean-spirited,” and “oppressive,” it is public sector union members who must learn a thing or two about manners and upholding decency.

Below are proven examples why the Left is mired by hypocrisy, intolerance, and an unabashed embrace of violence.

Case #1: Assaulting and disrespecting a reporter is revolting, not noble.

Fox News is the most-watched and trusted name in news, regardless of what liberals and the MSM spin. Protesters continually shouted “Fox lies!” and interrupted this reporter on the job. Talk about reverence for journalists…unless they are affiliated with Fox News.

From TheBlaze.com:

Case #2:  Blatant intolerance.

If blacks, gays, Hispanics, and other groups commonly swayed by the Democratic Party retreat to the TEA Party Movement and Republican Party, they will be faced with vicious scorn. From Gateway Pundit:

A pro-public union SEIU rally turned ugly today outside the Colorado Capitol in Denver.
The Colorado union supporters started out the day chanting, “Tax the rich!”

But later the unhinged SEIU thugs accosted a gay black tea partyer.
This verbal assault lasted for several minutes.
In this segment the pro-union leftists asks this black tea partyer,

“I just want to know how you can vote against your own best interest.”

Case 3: When disgruntled about imminent budget cuts, calling effective governors “fascist” will hurt your cause:

This assault on unions is not fascist or oppressive. Americans are taking massive cuts to their pay and are suffering from financial hardships. Union members continue to whine and complain that they’ve been attacked. News flash:  these unappreciative leeches should expect to pay for themselves. It is time to opt out of babysitting thugs, socialists, and communists.

One columnist, who is anti-Walker, pointed out the idiocy surrounding this name-calling in the Daily Cardinal:

The individuals who make such comparisons are just desperate for ammunition. They find the slightest similarity so that they can justify their argument. Perhaps Hitler didn’t like unions. Maybe Obama’s health-care system has slight similarities to Nazi Germany’s social policies. But that’s not the point.

Case #4: Fleeing your state and reneging on governmental duties shows weakness, not strength.

The “Wisconsin 14″–Democratic state senators who deliberately put the vote on Governor Walker’s bill on hold–have embarrassed their state and their constituents. WI voters voted for change in November 2010-the change Governor Walker promised while campaigning and subsequently delivered this past week.

Case #5: Shoving your fellow citizens is impolite, not honorable.

In Sacramento, Calif., this past weekend, a TEA Partier was repeatedly shoved and pushed around by an SEIU supporter.

From TheBlaze.com:

KXTV-TV:

The opposing rallies were divided by 10th Street, west of the State Capitol. All was peaceful, until members supporting unions crossed the street.

An amateur videographer caught a shoving match on tape. The video showed a face to face argument right before Richard Andazola, 28, of Stockton, shoved a tea party activist.

“He bum rushed across the street, came right at us, swung his bullhorn at me, hit me in the hand and then put his hand around my throat and started choking me,” Rodney Stanhope of Placerville said.

The video doesn’t show the choking incident, but clearly shows the shoving. Because of it, Sacramento Police officers cited Andazola for battery.

FreedomWorks employee and conservative activist Tabitha Hale was attacked by union thugs as well.

From Big Government:

Tabitha Hale, a FreedomWorks employee, got in a heated exchange while filming a union member outside of her office when she was attacked by the thug. We at Eyeblast personally know Tabitha, and she is one of the nicest people you will ever meet and is definitely not an instigator. Not to mention hitting a girl is one of the most cowardly things a man can do.

Just imagine if a Tea Party member were caught on video doing this. All the major media outlets would been looping this for the next 6 months.

…and a cohort was called a “bad Jew” for not siding with unions.

Clearly, union thugs need to learn some etiquette. Maybe anger management while they are at it. How about some medicine to calm their nerves? Check out this gem below:

Until then, the real agitators cannot go unnoticed.

UCSD Media Freeze Part Deux?

February 23, 2011 2 Comments

It looks like censorship is upon us again at UCSD.

Although I despise the Koala and their material, the First Amendment does apply to them. If their free speech rights are stripped of them, other papers will come under attack as well.

The Huffington Post writes:

Although UC San Diego student publication the Koala is known for pushing the envelope with questionable content, some think the paper crossed the line when it attacked UCSD student leader Carli Thomas with an article (NSFW PDF) titled “Carli Thomas is a Fat Whore” — and accompanied by an image of Thomas shoddily doctored to include male genitalia over her face.

The ensuing story, written by Koala “editor-in-queef” Kris Gregorian, is highly offensive, calling Thomas a “square chinned, thick-necked uppity skank,” among other things. Thomas believes that the personal attack stems from her decision as associate vice president of student organizations to cut the newspaper’s funding — a suspicion supported by this line in the article: “it’s kind of ironic that we’re spending the $450 allocated to us to print thousand (sic) upon thousands of copies of paper that basically say, ‘Carli Thomas, while a homely unf—able bovine before, isn’t even worth a drunken sport– now.’”

In response to the incident, the university told 10News it does “not endorse, condone, or approve of the material the Koala publishes; however, the First Amendment protects their speech, even though we find it objectionable. Under the First Amendment, the University is severely limited in the actions it can take in response to content published by students”

Gregorian refused to speak with 10News unless the station provided him with a case of beer, which 10News said was against policy.

Fox 5 Reports that Thomas plans on suing the paper for defamation. Check out their coverage below:

UC-San Diego V-DAY Co-Director Sends Odd E-mail

February 9, 2011 15 Comments

This past evening, I received an e-mail from the director of The Vagina Monologues at UCSD.

The e-mail reads:

Hi Gabriella,

My name is Van Nguyen and I am the co-director of The Vagina Monologues at UCSD this year. It has been brought to my attention by several members of V-day that you have recently posted a conflicting image in regards to The Vagina Monologues. As a key member in this organization, I would like to extend an invitation to this year production on opening night.

We would love to take this opportunity to educate you about our organization. There will be a ticket waiting for you at will-call on Wednesday, February 16th at the PC East Ballroom. Doors open at 7pm and show begins at 8pm. If you are able to make it, I believe this will be a valuable experience for you.

Sincerely,
Van Nguyen

Although the director was kind enough to offer me an invitation to the play, Nguyen largely ignores the fact that I have not produced any written material (i.e. articles, print articles, or blog posts) criticizing The Vagina Monologues thus far.

Before she, her respective organization, and the cast wage a full-fledged campaign against any critique of the play, I would kindly appreciate criticism after an article is published, not beforehand.

Masters of America’s Destiny? You Betcha

November 4, 2010 8 Comments

If you thought conservatives did not have swagger, then you were mistaken. Youth representation in the Conservative Movement is clearly needed more than ever. We are lucky enough to embrace small bastions here on the Left Coast and in other blue states. Nevertheless, there is hope–and it lies in the Northeast with this instance.

If you have not heard about The Young Cons yet, you are missing out!

Two strapping gentlemen from Dartmouth College–Josh “Stiltz”‘ Riddle and Dave “Serious C” Rufful–are uncanny, yet clever in delivering the conservative message. Who would have thought that two guys could rap eloquently about the importance of human life, free market principles, traditional values, limited government, Ronald Reagan, anti-communist sentiments, and the Founding Fathers? To get a better picture of these awesome activists, read here:

The Young Cons are conservative activists, division one college basketball players, Ivy League students, editors for The Dartmouth Review, rappers, bloggers, and co-founders of the 7,800-member Young Conservatives Facebook group. We have a mission to spread the love and logic surrounding true conservatism. In a technological era driven fiercely by the main stream media, those who vocalize the true conservative message of individual responsibility, moral absolutes, and small government are slanted as intolerant, racist, “bible and gun clinging”, corporate fat cats who could not care less about the environment nor the well being of their fellow man. Our group proves otherwise. Our performances are meant to be entertaining, combining both humor with serious commentary. In a day where conservatives are seen as close-minded and archaic, we bring a new perspective to a long-standing philosophy. Instead of sinking into the assemblage of the self-satisfied, we challenge the hearts and minds of Americans with lyrics that expose the true agenda of big government.

Here is their breakout video that landed them on Huckabee, The O’Reilly Factor, Fox & Friends, The Strategy Room, Fox Nation, HBO’s Realtime, VH1′s Best Week Ever, and various tea parties:

Newsweek briefly profiled The Young Cons in an article centered on a Washington, D.C. victory party on Tuesday, where they performed their new single, “Master of My Destiny.” The video beckons to be made viral, so do your part and spread it around?

 

I am proud to belong to a group of today’s movers-and-shakers in the Conservative Movement. Josh and Dave are proven examples that the conservative message can be delivered in a hip, fun and intelligent manner. They are forces to be reckoned with.

 

Watch out, America! More Young Cons are coming your way.

 

Follow them on twitter @YoungCons, “like”/join The Young Cons on facebook, YouTube channel, and buy their songs on iTunes.
