Teaparties Must Maintain Civility

A church friend of ours voiced concern over the atmosphere exhibited at the Tea Party rally held last week where Mr. Ken Humphrey spoke. She was concerned that loud booing and shouting down a speaker would present a negative picture of the Tea Party movement. For those people who do not know Mr. Humphrey, he is the chairman of the Carteret county Democrat party. Now, there is very little Mr. Humphrey says or believes with which I agree. But, he does have the right to say and believe those liberal thoughts regardless of how wrong I believe those thoughts are. Especially when he was invited to the rally by the organizers. I believe, also, the people voicing their opposition to what he was saying have the same right to voice their opinions as well; perhaps a bit less vociferously. We can thank Mr. Lockwood Phillips, emcee for the event, for reminding everyone of this. Mr. Phillips did a commendable job of making an effort to keep the crowd's emotions and rhetoric reasonably subdued and civil.

Since Mr. Humphrey was invited by the organizers to speak, I believe the "core" members of the Crystal Coast Tea Party Patriots were not involved with the "shout down" or other negative actions. The rally was open to the general public; all were welcome to participate, conservative and "wacko" liberal, also referred to as "progressive." So, I don't really know how many of the progressive left were there and who the noise makers were. As far as I know the rally loud mouths could have been a bunch of Mr. Humphrey's friends planted there to make the rally more susceptible to criticism. After all, that is the way progressives handle opposition, with subterfuge and lies. They are very, very good with this tactic. It is documented that the progressives are doing this on a national level, so why not here? If anyone requires a source for this, just watch some news sources that have more than three letters in their broadcast name. You surely will not find the truth there.

A letter to the editor in Wednesday's News-Times contained the statement, "I may be naive but I have always assumed that the job of the media was to report the news, not make it." Well, golly gee, I thought so too! I wonder if the writer has seen any of the national broadcast station news in the last 20 years. The good ole reliable ABC, CBS and NBC disproved that myth years ago. Oh, lets not forget CNN, MSNBC, and PBS. Has the writer been disappointed in these State News Services? If anyone believes the tripe emanating from these sources, then God help them.

The letter writer also was aghast that there was a "front page photo of a boy, whose face is distorted with anger and hate." My question is, was the writer as offended when B. Hussein Obama put on display the poor little boy who had no health insurance? I mean on national television, using this little fellow to try to justify the Supreme One's monumental nation-breaking socialist agenda.

All I can say is that this is simply typical behavior of the progressives. Piece by piece they are accomplishing the campaign promise of "fundamentally changing" the once great nation called the United States of America. Welcome to the United Socialist States of America.

Random Thoughts

The Demotards are losing it. They are, independently, running off at the mouth while their brains are disengaged. Rep. Phil Hare tells how he really feels about the Constitution, "I don't worry about the Constitution on this to be honest..." He doesn't worry about the Constitution when it applies to the healthcare "obamanation". But his people in charge of damage control say it was taken out of context. Which is what they always say when caught with their lower jaw flapping faster than their disengaged brain can function.
Another example, the brilliant Rep. Hank Johnson, (D-Ga) with his quote of the year, "My fear is that the whole island will become so overly populated that it will tip over and capsize.” This brilliant comment was made in reference to 25000 additional military personnel and family on the island of Guam. What does he think an island is, a lily pad in a frog pond? What a stupid comment.
Apparently B. Hussein Obama's administration is abandoning their current method of screening for potential airline bombers. It seems they may be moving toward profiling. What, you say? Yes I say, profiling. If the government would do what it should do and forget about the ridiculous idea of "political correctness," particularly as it relates to identifying criminals, the airlines and public areas in general would be much safer. If 95 to 100 percent of suicide bombings are implemented by mid-eastern, dark skinned, Arabic accented, Koran following, Jew hating, infidel killers, then why would the authorities not question anyone with those characteristics? It is idiotic to be so concerned about offending a person when so much is at stake. It seems to me that these characteristics could qualify as "probable cause." Profiling is a legitimate tool that should be in every law enforcer's weapons locker. Better to possibly offend a few rather than lose many.
But, B. Hussein Obama and those of his ilk know better than the average American, who is not intelligent enough to know how to step under cover when it rains. Ahhh, but Father Hussein will take care of us. How blessed we are. I sure am glad he spent all those years as a community organizer. Because of that experience, we have salvation through his grace.
