Local Lefties Are (Oh My Gosh!) Offended Over a Tweet Updated With Press Release

The Progressive group blog known as Scrutiny Hooligans has piled on with their fellow socialists, I mean progressives, at Blue NC in a post objecting to the following tweet by @WNCGOP:

So, this is why the youth vote went to Obama…because they’re a bunch of easily led, useful idiots. Makes sense. http://bit.ly/b6Jm

Blue NC then proceeded to "manufacture rage" over the tweet thusly:

Someone needs to tell the Republicans in North Carolina that voters don't like to be pissed on.

I wouldn't just post this without a call to action, so here it is:

E-mail the NC GOP Chair Linda Daves LCDaves@aol.com and Executive Director Chris McClure mcclure@ncgop.org telling them that they need to respect young voters.

Write a letter to the editor of the Raleigh News & Observer.

And Gordon Smith piled on with this:

WNCGOP also insults the people of Asheville (especially our eastern European immigrant population) by linking to this video along with the quote: “From the streets of Asheville, North Carolina (not really, but hey, it’s funny)”

The grown-up in charge of the Twittering might want to reel this person in…

Commentary

Here is my advice to the WNCGOP. Don't let this get to you. There was nothing wrong with that post. It is an Alinskyite tactic designed to drive a wedge between Republicans...exactly as they have tried to do with Rush Limbaugh and the GOP, between Rush Limbaugh and Michael Steele, between Michael Steele and the GOP.

Do not fall for it.

They use this tactic at this time out of fear. Fear of us.

Conservatives in WNC are finally migrating to the Internet, and making use of modern technology (not email....email is a dead end) to spread information and work together in opposing the evil and abominable plans of President Barack Obama.

And, Yes, to laugh at his idiot followers. This includes the morons at Blue NC and Scrutiny Hooligans. I laugh at them both because I can smell their fear, and it is delicious.

Do not give in to them, NC-11 Republicans, and do not discipline whoever tweeted that which the Progressives have attempted to use as a tool to cause us to fight among ourselves.

I ask people to contact the very people that the Blue NC progressives instructed their readers to contact, and voice your support for the WNCGOP. Tell them that the progressives are attempting to create controversy and it will not work...that you are not fooled.

Progressives are getting scared because they can see we are getting stronger...

And I will use this opportunity to invite my fellow conservatives to make an effort to increase their usage of the Internet as a tool of activism...they cannot track us all...

**update** Jane Q Republic has also jumped into the fray...

**update to the update** The NC-11 GOP has issued a presser regarding this incident, and it follows:

OR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Friday, March 20, 2009 For more information, contact: communications@wncgop.org Local GOP Takes Heat From Radical Left Wing Comments on Twitter Spark Controversy Among State & Local Bloggers Asheville, NC: The Internet was buzzing this morning over a post on the 11th District's Twitter Page which cited a March 18 article entitled "Colleges Teaching Students What To Think Rather Than How To Think" with a tongue-in-cheek characterization of the Obama youth vote in the last election as being "useful idiots" --- a historical reference to Vladimir Lenin's description of American liberals. (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Useful_idiot) Several sites, including the left-wing blogs BlueNC and Scrutiny Hooligans,picked up on the story after several Twitterers in Washington DC spammed the local GOP site with disparaging comments. Scrutiny Hooligans, for its part, is notorious in Western North Carolina for its hateful and often personal attacks onelected officials and the occasional mocking of people of faith. "There is no question that between the extreme liberal bias in our public education system, Hollywood and the press --- not to mention the $1.5 Billion spent by the Obama campaign on slick advertising --- that many voters were sold a bill of goods in the last election," said 11th District GOP Chair Stephen G. Duncan. "And I think that was particularly true with younger voters." Citing an article in today's Inside Higher Ed, Duncan continued: "It would be difficult to have a balanced perspective of the issues if you were only ten to twelve years old when our nation was attacked on September 11. These kids came of age inundated with nothing but Republican-bashing spin from liberals and the media. I think it's unfortunate, but it's true." Duncan noted that these websites, which regularly post entries attacking not only Republicans, but conservative Democrats in North Carolina, are somewhat hypocritical in complaining about such a minor (although perhaps politically incorrect) comment. "Given the hateful statements that often come from left-wing bloggers here in Asheville  --- who seem to have no problem attacking those they don't agree with (and that includes their own fellow Democrats) --- it seems like they're over-reacting," continued Duncan. "Besides, we're not saying that younger voters are stupid. All we're saying is that many voters were heavily influenced by an extravagantly funded propaganda campaign like we've never seen before in American politics," he continued. "I think that is a fair and accurate statement." Conservative bloggers from around the country quickly rushed to the 11th District's defense, including the well-respected Asheville-based Jane Q. Republican, who said this morning of the useful idiot reference: "This is an excellent use of the term.  The insult conveyed here is not to the students who are manipulated; it is to the manipulators. One need only read the referenced article to comprehend that much...Blue NC (got) their panties in a wad because someone outside of the Democrat party appeared to have violated their patent on rude." Republican Party officials agree that one of the most potent weapons in the left-wing arsenal --- and perhaps the key to Obama's popularity with younger voters --- was its mastery of what is referred to as Web. 2.0, which essentially takes websites to the next level through social networking tools such as Facebook and Twitter. "We will not sit by and cede this particular playing field to leftists. We as conservatives in Western North Carolina and around the country intend to fight back," said Duncan. For those not currently using Twitter, it can be thought of as essentially a running newsfeed of thought and opinion that contains hyperlinks to external websites.You may download a complete transcript in PDF format of the 11th District's Twitter entries --- and more than 250 links to stories of interest to Republicans and Conservatives --- by clicking here. Today's controversy comes on the 155th Anniversary of the birth of theRepublican Party in Ripon, Wisconsin. "The Republican Party has always stood against Tyranny and we always will. Even if it is a tyranny of the politically-correct, left-wing socialist blogosphere." "The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But underthe name of 'liberalism' they will adopt every fragment of the Socialistprogram, until one day America will be a Socialist nation, withoutknowing how it happened." --- Norman Thomas (1884-1968) Six time presidential candidate Socialist Party of America ####

“they estimated that they’d have to eliminate 25 million people in these re‑education centers…”

This estimation was made in Cuba in the presence of several members of The Weathermen terrorist group to which William Ayers (friend of Obama) belonged to:


Grathwohl: I brought up the subject of what's going to happen after we take over the government. You know, we become responsible for administrating, you know, 250 million people. And there was no answer. No one had given any thought to economics. How are you going to clothe and feed these people? The only thing that I could get was that they expected that the Cubans, the North Vietnamese, the Chinese and the Russians would all want to occupy different portions of the United States. They also believed that their immediate responsibility would be to protect against what they called the counter-revolution. And they felt that this counter-revolution could best be guarded against by creating and establishing re-education in the Southwest where we would take all of the people who needed to be re‑educated into the new way of thinking and teach them how things were going to be. I asked, "Well, what is going to happen to those people that we can't re‑educate, that are die-hard capitalists?" And the reply was that they'd have to be eliminated and when I pursued this further, they estimated that they'd have to eliminate 25 million people in these re‑education centers. And when I say eliminate, I mean kill 25 million people. I want you to imagine sitting in a room with 25 people, most of whom have graduate degrees from Columbia and other well-known educational centers and hear them figuring out the logistics for the elimination of 25 million people and they were dead serious.

Commentary

You need to remember this when you hear someone say that they want "social justice" because that is just code for communism and the wholesale slaughter of those who disagree once they establish their order.

You need to remember stuff like this when you some doped out teenager or aging hippy wearing a shirt with Che's mass-murdering face on it. Not all the people on the left are supporters of mass murders...but they are useful idiots who will vote in people who are more than happy to establish the above mentioned pogrom.

William Ayers--"Guilty as Sin, Free as a Bird, It's a Great Country"

According to what I heard on today's Ed Morrissey Show [I'll add the link after the show is over], William Ayers has agreed to debate Sean Hannity on Television. (Cue the Hallelujah Chorus).

Just in case you have been hiding under a rock, and don't know who Bill Ayers is, I'll fill you in.

William Ayers is an unrepetant domestic terrorist. And he is married to another unrepentant terrorist, Bernardine Dohrn.

Don't believe me? I'll let the Obama-Supporting Terrorist speak for himself:



Bill Ayers speaks in the first two videos and his wife speaks in the last two videos.

Information for this post was gleaned from Vital Signs and New Zeal, two of the essiential blogs for gathering information on the evilness of Obama and his associates.

An Obama Administration...Stepping Stones To Leftist Dictatorship?

A commenter left an excellently distilled statement that I just have to highlight on the frontpage...

1. Obama challenges the 2nd Amendment ... The Right To Bear Arms.

2. Obama challenges the 1st Amendment ... The right of Free Speech. Obama pressures all media who accepts NRA advertising.

3. Obama wants a Civil National Security Force ... with the same budget as the Pentagon. So, Obama does not want any opposition, so he stops Freedom of Speech.

Then, to make any opposition defenseless, he wants to take away our right to bear arms.

Next, he wants a Civil National Security force to put down any insurrection.

Sounds like the stepping stones to a leftist dictator taking over this country.

I can only think that my commenter has wisdom, and that an Obama Administration would be very damaging to our Constitutional Republic.

Lucifer Was A Community Organizer

The seditious role of the community organiser was developed by an extreme left intellectual called Saul Alinsky. He was a radical Chicago activist who, by the time he died in 1972, had had a profound influence on the highest levels of the Democratic party. Alinsky was a ‘transformational Marxist’ in the mould of Antonio Gramsci, who promoted the strategy of a ‘long march through the institutions’ by capturing the culture and turning it inside out as the most effective means of overturning western society. In similar vein, Alinsky condemned the New Left for alienating the general public by its demonstrations and outlandish appearance. The revolution had to be carried out through stealth and deception. Its proponents had to cultivate an image of centrism and pragmatism. A master of infiltration, Alinsky wooed Chicago mobsters and Wall Street financiers alike. And successive Democratic politicians fell under his spell.

His creed was set out in his book ‘Rules for Radicals’ – a book he dedicated to Lucifer, whom he called the ‘first radical’. It was Alinsky for whom ‘change’ was his mantra. And by ‘change’, he meant a Marxist revolution achieved by slow, incremental, Machiavellian means which turned society inside out. This had to be done through systematic deception, winning the trust of the naively idealistic middle class by using the language of morality to conceal an agenda designed to destroy it. And the way to do this, he said, was through ‘people’s organisations’.

Jan 9th, Feb 21st and March 14th:. What Do These Dates Have In Common?

January 9th was the day after the New Hampshire Primary, where Hillary Clinton and John McCain emerged as the winners.

February 21st was the day of the Texas Democrat deabte. [Transcript] [Video]

March 14th was the day the Wright Story was picked up by the Legacy Media, curiously replacing the Ferraro Furor.

Coincidence? Likely.

I notice that lefties are trying to place blame on their favorite enemy, George W. Bush. I say to them, "You had better focus your attentions on Hillary, because if you do not go after her with everything in your arsenal, she'll have the nomination. And if Obama gets the nomination, you can count on her to work to undermine him with more vigor than McCain. After all, he has suspended an aide who made a youtube video attacking Obama. What would he do to one of his people digging through Obama's passport info? Or to a Bush Admin effort to assist him? He'd run, not walk to a camera to denounce the effort.

You had better find a way to utterly destroy Hillary as a viable candidate, or make peace with her, for she will eat you alive. Never underestimate a Clinton. There are many who did, and have had their careers destroyed, lives destroyed, or have assumed room temperature. Just watch the Clinton Chronicles. And if the video gets taken down again, I have a copy of it I am willing to upload.

The Problem With Obama's Church: Ethnocentric Christian Marxism

Beyond the incendiary nature of Reverend Jeremiah Wright's comments, there is another serious concern about Obama's church. It is the black liberation theology taught by the church, and it dovetails nicely with his first vocational choice as a community organizer in poor black communities in Chicago.

The church website even points to a 1969 book by Dr. James Cone, "Black Power and Black Theology" as being the basis for their vision statement, which reads:

We are a congregation which is Unashamedly Black and Unapologetically Christian... Our roots in the Black religious experience and tradition are deep, lasting and permanent. We are an African people, and remain "true to our native land," the mother continent, the cradle of civilization. God has superintended our pilgrimage through the days of slavery, the days of segregation, and the long night of racism. It is God who gives us the strength and courage to continuously address injustice as a people, and as a congregation. We constantly affirm our trust in God through cultural expression of a Black worship service and ministries which address the Black Community.

The Pastor as well as the membership of Trinity United Church of Christ is committed to a 10-point Vision:

1. A congregation committed to ADORATION.
2. A congregation preaching SALVATION.
3. A congregation actively seeking RECONCILIATION.
4. A congregation with a non-negotiable COMMITMENT TO AFRICA.
5. A congregation committed to BIBLICAL EDUCATION.
6. A congregation committed to CULTURAL EDUCATION.
7. A congregation committed to the HISTORICAL EDUCATION OF AFRICAN PEOPLE IN DIASPORA.
8. A congregation committed to LIBERATION.
9. A congregation committed to RESTORATION.
10. A congregation working towards ECONOMIC PARITY.

There are also you tube videos you may watch that explains their view.

Anyone can see the leftist and race-centric (that is PC for racist) philosophy embodied in the statement. Don't believe me? Re-read their vision and where ever you encounter the word black, replace it with white (or Aryan), and where ever you see Africa, replace it with Europe (or Germany).

We do not tolerate racism from whites, and should not tolerate it from blacks.

Outside the focus on race, the church follows a "liberation theology" that is Marxism masquerading as Christianity. Read more about lefty theology at Sillie Lizzie's Rock:

".... liberation theology has been the gateway constructed by leftwing theologians ... to bring Christians straight into the Marxist socialist revolution, as if Marx or Marxists really cared about the poor and oppressed, or ever succeeded in elevating them from poverty.

In point of fact, of course, the Marxists, their leftwing theologians, their apologists, and their socialist hangers-on created more poor and more oppressed than the world has ever witnessed throughout its entire existence.

Now, back to Dr. James Cone. He wrote on page 3 of "God of the Oppressed" that "my theological reflections are inseparable from the Bearden experience. What I write is urged out of my blood."[link]

This goes counter to the most basic precept of Christianity, that of forgiveness. That should be no surprise, for the theology of Dr. Cone holds a most un-Biblical view of what sin and salvation is [link]:

In Cone's view, sin is "a condition of human existence in which man denies the essence of God's liberating activity as revealed in Jesus Christ." In this view, sin is anything that is contrary to the oppressed community or its liberation.

Salvation for Cone primarily has to do with earthly reality, not heavenly hopes. "To see the salvation of God is to see this people [i.e., the blacks] rise up against their oppressors, demanding that justice become a reality now and not tomorrow." Hence, though Cone often speaks of Jesus as the Liberator, in practical terms he emphasizes the human work of self-liberation among blacks and downplays divine help.

So, we can see that Obama's church is not a "Christian" church in the sense we can recognize. It follows an offshoot of Christianity based on ethnocentrist, and Marxist beliefs wrapped in a covering of Christianity.

Those of us who were shocked by the hatred and profanity spewed out of Reverend Jeremiah's mouth, recognize that the philosophy that spawns such language is not based in Christ's love, but in something else entirely. I am currently editing some videos of his speeches to focus on the reaction of others in the audience to his hate...joy and approval.

American Thinker has tackled the same problem I have, and taken a slightly different tack on the problem of Barack Obama's theological beliefs, and has called it Neoliberal Theocracy.

Bill, Hill, Alinsky, and Tearing Down Obama

I can't remember if I have discussed Saul Alinsky on this website. If not, that is about to change, and I'll let Kyle-Anne Shiver lead off:

Obama was up; now he's down. Even though Obama seems to be harnessing the South Carolina black vote that will give him that state's delegates, he has been feeling the brunt of the Clintons' mastery of the tactic of polarization, taught decades ago to Hillary by Saul Alinsky.

Obama is being forced into the position of being the black candidate. Successfully polarizing Obama, who has attempted to run as the anti-polarity uniter, a man in the middle, has not been a lazy-day walk in the park for the Clintons, and surely would not have been attempted if Obama hadn't trounced them in Iowa.

Alinsky's 13th rule for radicals

Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it.

Saul Alinsky taught his eager disciples that the establishment despised conflict. He blamed this perverse malady upon the dual forces of organized religion ( those turn-the-other-cheek folks) and the Madison Avenue advertising culture, which he said "emphasizes getting along with people and avoiding friction." Alinsky deemed avoidance of conflict as not only disgusting, but contrary to the betterment of a "free and open society."

Hillary Not The Only Alinsky Acolyte In 2008

If I were the least bit prone to gratuitous sympathy, I would be tempted now to feel quite sorry for Hillary Rodham Clinton. Poor, poor woman. She was quite nearly brought to all-out tears yesterday in New Hampshire, as she soliloquized over the sad state of her drooping campaign and how completely personal this is for her.

Barack Obama seems to have effortlessly achieved voter adoration, fresher, younger, more at ease within his own skin than she will ever be. He would appear to be as much a natural as her own Bill. It may appear to a great many observers that Barrack Obama is just one incredibly audacious, even lucky, albeit frighteningly charismatic dude.

These personal qualities are not the sole reason he is where he is, and I suspect the wily Mrs. Clinton knows this full well. I suspect it must bother her that Obama also appears to have mastered the playbook used by her own political teacher, the legendary amoral guru of left wing activism, Saul Alinksy.

Hillary has met not only her match in Alinsky tactics, she has met the master of bloodless socialist revolution, in my opinion.

Obama's Alinsky Lessons

Barack Obama had just graduated from Columbia and was looking for a job. Some white leftists were looking for someone who could recruit in a black neighborhood in the south side of Chicago.

Obama answered a help-wanted ad for a position as a community organizer for the Developing Communities Project (DCP) of the Calumet Community Religious Conference (CCRC) in Chicago. Obama was 24 years old, unmarried, very accustomed to a vagabond existence, and according to his memoir, searching for a genuine African-American community.

Both the CCRC and the DCP were built on the Alinsky model of community agitation, wherein paid organizers learned how to "rub raw the sores of discontent," in Alinsky's words.
