Obamacare Re-education Will Create Jobs And End Homelessness

The Strident Conservative — Fri, 03 Sep 2010 03:29:48 +0000

When Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius made her startling announcement on the All Barack Channel (ABC) about the need for a major “re-education” effort in order to correct the numerous misconceptions about Obamacare, there was a bit of an uproar in many conservative circles.

However, I think this reaction from my conservative brethren is a bit short-sighted. In reality, this could be an effort by the messiah and his communist progressive marxist socialist democrat advisers to finally address the faltering economy and the 8% nearly 10% unemployment rate.

Here’s how I see it.

As he has done with his other socialist initiatives, the messiah likes to follow the model of other nations, because as we all know, Obama is a citizen of the world who is all about being liked by other countries while destroying everything about America.

One nation he has become very familiar with in his presidency is the buyer of his record-setting debt, China. And it’s The Land of the Rising Sun where he has found the inspiration and guidance for this latest initiative.

While technically a part of their prison system, the Chinese used forced labor as a tool in the re-education process. In fact, it was actually called “re-education through labor.”

Now, before you misunderstand, this wasn’t some sort of “slave” labor where task masters beat you into submission. In fact, when Mao wasn’t killing his fellow citizens, he was actually paying them a small salary along with room and board in the form of camps housing that was seperate from the general prison population.

Wow, re-education with a salary AND housing? Sounds like a deal to me.

So now we see where the administration is actually taking us. They weren’t implying that they would introduce us to a form of some sort of George Orwell-styled 1984 brain-washing. No, they were actually laying the foundation to create a few new government jobs – the only type that Obama knows how to create – while addressing the housing crisis, homelessness and nationalized healthcare.

No wonder Chris Mathews gets a tingle up his leg whenever he thinks about Obama.

Of course, such an endeavor couldn’t be accomplished by the HHS Secretary alone. A partnership with the Secretary of Labor, Hilda Solis, not only makes sense, but is a perfect fit for instituting this policy.

For the uninitiated, Solis has Communist ties, is a former leader in the Democratic Socialists of America and was a part of the Congressional Progressive Caucus when she was “representing” the 32nd Congressional District of California (she left when she became Labor Secretary).

Gee, a socialist progressive from California, who would have thought?

Anyway, her background and experience in communist-styled government makes her an invaluable tool in the administration’s re-education effort. Heck, if she can promise illegal aliens equal pay for illegally working in the United States, she can surely pull off this one.

So, there you have it.

Secretary Sebelius might have sounded like Big Brother when she suggested re-educating those of us too stupid to know what a great deal Obamacare is, but I think she was actually announcing a plan by the annointed one that would educate the public while providing the much-needed jobs and housing for an economy on the verge of another recession.

If you thought this year’s “Recovery Tour” was special, wait until you see next year’s “Re-education Tour.”

Re-education will provide healthcare, jobs and a roof over our heads. Now THAT’S change we can believe in.

Are The Founding Fathers Behind Mosque Opposition?

The Strident Conservative — Thu, 19 Aug 2010 21:07:22 +0000

In a surprise announcement by the Princess-of-the-House, Nancy Pelosi has gone on-the-record in favor of a full investigation of the Founding Fathers for their part in the rising opposition to the New York City mosque being built near ground zero.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Tuesday said she supports an investigation into groups opposing the building of a mosque near ground zero in New York.

Pelosi told San Francisco’s KCBS radio that “there is no question there is a concerted effort to make this a political issue by some.”

“I join those who have called for looking into how is this opposition to the mosque being funded,” she said. “How is this being ginned up?”

Logically, anyone who expresses their opposition to the mosque is practicing their freedom of speech and any group who does so is practicing their right of assembly (also known as the right of association), so the blame for the rising opposition to this ludicrous idea clearly lies at the feet of the Founders. They were, after all, the authors of the Bill of Rights where the First Amendment deals with the Freedom of Speech and the Freedom of Assembly.

Of course, Princess Pelosi isn’t totally opposed to the Bill of Rights. She appears to support the part about Freedom of Religion, even using the Freedom of Speech she objects to others using in order to share her New Age version of John 1:14:

I guess in the NIV Bible Pelosi reads (Nancy Improvised Version), “fill it in with whatever you want” means that you can replace Jesus with radical Islam. And if you object to a shrine being built to celebrate the murder of thousands of Americans on American soil, then you don’t know how to “give voice” to the Word and you must be investigated.

Of course, opposition to free speech when discussing political differences is nothing new to leaders of the Democrat Progressive party. In fact, it must be some sort of requirement if you want to hold a position of leadership.

“What we have is two important values in conflict: freedom of speech and our desire for healthy campaigns in a healthy democracy. You can’t have both.” - Dick Gephardt

Yep, the last thing we need in political campaigns is freedom of speech. Geez, what were those Founders thinking?

But that lines up perfectly with the Princess. According to her, these free speech groups are only opposing the mosque because they want to make this “political.” So obviously, it must be stopped. Of course, Nancy has been the perfect example of keeping differences “non-political.”

She avoided being political when asked differences with the T.E.A. Party.

She avoided being political with insurance companies who opposed healthcare.

She avoided being political with the CIA flap over water-boarding.

As we can see, Pelosi is a shining of example of political neutrality. And since anyone who disagrees with her about anything obviously has a political agenda, maybe it’s time we deal with those so-called “patriots” who founded America by correcting their obvious errors when it comes to freedom of speech and assembly.

Perhaps she can team up with the chosen one and simply abolish the Constitution. Actually, I think they’ve already been working on that.

The “R” In Reid Stands For Racist

The Strident Conservative — Thu, 12 Aug 2010 05:46:21 +0000

In yet another flareup of his cronic “foot-in-mouth” disease, “Henchman Harry” Reid has now added conservative Hispanics to the list of minorities who don’t pass the test of racial purity.

While speaking at a campaign stop, Reid made a declaration so racist in nature, that it could have only come from the mouth of the same man who marvelled that Obama was had no Negro dialectand compared Republicans who opposed Obamacare to slave owners.

Isn’t it the progressives that claim that Republicans need to practice ”tolerance” with those they don’t agree with? It’s a pretty pathetic commentary on the affairs of the progressive left, when an old white man has to resort to playing the race card in order to make their point.

In Henchman Harry’s book of “Progressive Rules for Minorities,” you can’t be a conservative and be Hispanic. You can’t be in favor of hard work and legal immigration. You can’t be pro-life and pro-family. You can’t support lower taxes and limited government. The only true measure of an Hispanic-American is to fall in line with the Democrats.

How is it that the party that claims to embrace the ideals of Martin Luther King, Jr. – you know, that whole judge a man by the content of his character instead of the color of his skin thing – are the first to accuse and divide those they don’t agree with using nothing more than race?

The words of Henchman Harry could just as easily be paraphrased as follows:

“The only true Hispanic is a Democrat Hispanic.”

Pretty pathetic when you look at it that way, isn’t it? But hey, since when has the Senator from Nevada let a little bit of race-baiting get in the way of his political ambitions, heh?

I wonder what Marco Rubio (R-FL) has to say about Henchman Harry’s latest racist diatribe.

Hey, let’s do a Harry Reid role play.

Did you notice that Rubio is light-skinned and has hardly any Hispanic dialect? Wouldn’t he make a great Democrat?

In Harry’s book, that’s all it takes.

Tired Of The Obama B.S.?

The Strident Conservative — Fri, 23 Jul 2010 06:23:57 +0000

Well, I’m back.

After taking some time off - a period that included my birthday - I’m ready to get back into the battle for the heart of our nation. I hope you will see a renewed spirit and enthusiasm in my writing, mixed with truth and sarcasm.

For today’s blog, I simply couldn’t add anything to this video. It’s a great bit of satire that I’m sure will make you laugh.

If you’re tired of Obama’s B.S., here’s a product that you can’t live without.

Eric Holder Got It Right

The Strident Conservative — Wed, 07 Jul 2010 23:29:39 +0000

In a speech to Justice Department employees marking Black History Month last year, Eric Holder made the following declaration about America concerning the issue of race:

“Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and I believe continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards.”

While he took alot of heat for that declaration, time has shown these words to ring true. And nowhere is it more true than in Holder’s very own Department of Justice.

It began with his decision to drop charges against members of the New Black Panther Party for interfering with voters in a Philadelphia precinct during the 2008 elections using voter intimidation tactics - which included carrying a club and being dressed in military-looking clothes – even though they already had a conviction in the case.

We have now learned that the “gentlemen” in the video are a part of an ultra-extreme group who advocate the death of whites as a part of some sort of racial healing.

Now Holder’s speech makes sense and proves that he was right. Here’s how:

Race, Holder said, “is an issue we have never been at ease with and, given our nation’s history, this is in some ways understandable. If we are to make progress in this area, we must feel comfortable enough with one another and tolerant enough of each other to have frank conversations about the racial matters that continue to divide us.”

Isn’t that what King Samir Shabazz is doing in the video? Sounds to me like he’s pretty frank about “the racial matters that continue to divide,” doesn’t it to you?

“Saturdays and Sundays, America in the year 2009 does not in some ways differ significantly from the country that existed almost 50 years ago. This is truly sad,” said Holder.

Doesn’t the racial hatred being spewed by Shabazz sound just like the 1960′s?

Recently, a now former DOJ Civil Rights attorney has gone public with the information that Holder’s office made the decision to drop the charges of voter intimidation against the New Black Panthers, not because they were innocent, but because the DOJ has “little interest in bringing cases against black defendants” and “doesn’t want to protect white voters.”

Going back to Holder’s comments about being a coward, isn’t that exactly how you would describe a man who plays the race card when it’s convenient and hides behind his office?

So to my fellow conservatives, I want to set the record straight. When it comes to racial matters in America, Eric Holder got it right.
