Why Has The Democratic Party Not Apologized For Slavery?

Mainstream Media and Hollywood Engaging In Marxist Tactics

Did you know that Marxist propaganda preaches that Capitalism is racist and any opposition to the Leftist movement is rooted in racism? Are the people in the mainstream media and Hollywood aware that they are engaging in Marxist tactics or are they just useful idiots?

How about instead of always doing what makes us happy, we start doing what's right?

Obama is Just a Guy. A Guy That is Failing.

Allen West - Liberals' Worst Nightmare

I am standing here with my American brothers and sisters. It has nothing to do with race. It has nothing to do with color. It is all about your character. And we don't have character in Washington DC. But I'm telling you right now...I'm going up there and I am going to drain that cesspool. - Representative Lt. Col. Allen West

PBSC YAF: Correcting the Lies Being Propagated by Progressives and Exposing Modern Liberalism For the Sham That it is

In my academic experience at Palm Beach State College I have witnessed an overwhelming liberal bias on the part of the faculty and administration. Blatant falsities and misleading generalizations are perpetuated in political science courses when young students are trying to find their place in the political spectrum. An example of this occurred when my instructor explained to my classmates that conservatives are simply “people who are resistant to change and want prayer in schools” while liberals are open to change and work to “provide for the unfortunate and keep a separation between church and state.” This deceptive misrepresentation of conservatism and unwarranted elevation of modern liberalism is rampant and very seldom countered in the classroom setting. I have even experienced this in my seemingly innocuous supervision and management courses. One would think that certain subjects are simply black and white, but it is remarkable how the toxic collectivist, anti-capitalist ideology inevitably seeps into every crevice of higher learning.

In light of the abhorrent liberal bias on my campus, coupled with my perception of a student body cloaked in a detrimental apathy, I felt that it was my duty as a young conservative to correct the lies being propagated by the progressives; and to expose modern liberalism for the sham that it is. I hoped to achieve this by bringing a youth conservative movement to my campus called ‘Young Americans for Freedom.’ This impressive organization which began in the 1960’s at the estate of William F. Buckley, Jr., would serve as my platform to advance the truth on my campus.

YAF has a rich history of fighting big government, supporting our troops, and educating America’s youth. Cynthia Toney of “The Bold Pursuit” succinctly communicates this history in her 2011 profile of Young Americans for Freedom: “[YAF] spearheaded the 1964 Presidential campaign of Barry Goldwater, each one helping to define the other. In the 1970’s, the organization started a number of projects to support Vietnam veterans and their causes and joined forces with the American Conservative Union to form the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC). During the Reagan years, Young Americans for Freedom mobilized to support the President’s agenda and defend the administration’s conservative officials and appointees who were targeted by the Left. Never a stranger to international issues, the organization battled Communism and promoted the cause of freedom on college campuses.”

In order to officially form a Young Americans for Freedom chapter at PBSC, at least five members were needed. In an effort to recruit these members, I attempted to set up a small YAF table on campus but the administration denied me my right to free speech. As soon as the liberal faculty noticed the group’s conservative message, we got shut down in the name of “safety.” Not only did they prevent us from tabling to recruit the required members, but they also stated that they would not allow us to simply hand out fliers to our peers on campus. Fox News, The Gateway Pundit, World Net Daily, The Heritage Foundation, and other prominent conservative news outlets picked up the story in an effort to expose this egregious violation. With the intention of protecting the rights of every student on campus, I filed suit against Palm Beach State College with the help of the Alliance Defense Fund and am now in the process of litigation.

In the wake of all the press related to the incident at PBSC, I was contacted by like-minded students and was finally able to meet the five member requirement. Shortly thereafter, I found a conservative faculty advisor (not an easy task on a state college campus) thanks to my involvement in the Republican Executive Committee. Professor Mary Ellen Vitrano, a fellow committee woman on the REC, agreed to help form YAF at PBSC and has been courageously fighting with us ever since.

The PBSC YAF Vice Chairman, U.S. Air Force veteran Mario Martinez, who is studying political science and history at Palm Beach State, has joined me in advancing YAF’s message on our campus. We have arranged talks on the Federal Reserve and Second Amendment rights. There are also plans to invite Representative Allen West who is on the Florida YAF Advisory Board to come speak at the college, which should be a fruitful experience for the students, faculty, and the entire community of Palm Beach County.

It is important to support all local conservative clubs, but this organization in particular has the potential to reach out to the youth of Palm Beach County, who is often told that America is evil and that capitalism is the cause of all of our problems. PBSC YAF is here to tell them the truth:

• America is the most charitable and free country on the planet.
• Capitalism has brought more people out of poverty than any other economic system in history.
• Personable responsibility, self-discipline, and entrepreneurial ingenuity bring about true freedom.

How can you support this up and coming youth conservative movement in your own county?

1.       Tell your friends about PBSC YAF.

2.       Direct all conservative youth to PBSC YAF.

3.       Donate money. It can be costly bringing speakers to campus, printing fliers, making signs, creating demonstrations, and hosting events.

4.       Offer the students connections to prominent local conservatives who might want to come speak on campus.

5.       Have your club form an alliance with PBSC YAF.

Liberals Love Dictators But One Is Missing From Their List

"The Muslims surrounding Israel were Adolf Hitler's allies during WWII and they are still hell bent on finishing the work that Hitler started. Every American voter needs to know that Barack Obama has chosen to stand with Hitler's allies."

CEO of The National Black Chamber of Commerce Admits That He Voted For Obama "Because He Was Black"

Harry Alford, president and CEO of the National Black Chamber of Commerce, blasted President Obama's anti-business administration. During his interview on the Laura Ingraham show, he humbly and courageously admitted that he voted for Obama "because he was black" and it was "the worst mistake of [his] life."

He said that voting for Barack Obama blindly based on his race was a "lesson that [he] would take to [his] grave." Mr. Alford believes that Obama's policies are "starting to look Marxist" and he "loves this country too much to be quiet about this guy." Harry continued, "[Obama] is wrecking us...he is dangerous and I am going to do all that I can to get the black community [to vote against him]."

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, Mr. Alford is "perhaps the nation's preeminent champion of African-American business empowerment." This steadfast and brilliant American entrepreneur warns that "the free market is not going to be free much longer if we don't do something about it in 2012."

Fight of the Century: Keynes vs. Hayek, Round Two

“Fight of the Century” Lyrics.

Written by John Papola and Russ Roberts

KEYNES

Here we are… peace out! great recession
thanks to me, as you see, we’re not in a depression
Recovery, destiny if you follow my lesson
Lord Keynes, here I come, line up for the procession

HAYEK
We brought out the shovels but we’re still in a ditch…
And still digging. don’t you think that it’s time for a switch…
From that hair of the dog. Friend, the party is over.
The long run is here. It’s time to get sober!

KEYNES
Are you kidding? my cure works perfectly fine…
have a look, the great recession ended back in ’09.
Surely, I deserve credit. Things would have been worse
All the estimates prove it—I’ll quote chapter and verse

HAYEK
Econometricians, they’re ever so pious
Are they doing real science or confirming their bias?
Their “Keynesian” models are tidy and neat
But that top down approach is a fatal conceit

REFRAIN
Which way should we choose?
more bottom up or more top down
…the fight continues…
Keynes and Hayek’s second round

it’s time to weigh in…
more from the top or from the ground
…lets listen to the greats
Keynes and Hayek throwing down

KEYNES
we could have done better, had we only spent more
Too bad that only happens when there’s a World War
You can carp all you want about stats and regression
Do you deny World War II cut short the Depression?

HAYEK
Wow. One data point and you’re jumping for joy
the Last time I checked, wars only destroy
There was no multiplier, consumption just shrank
As we used scarce resources for every new tank

Pretty perverse to call that prosperity
Rationed meat, Rationed butter… a life of austerity
When that war spending ended your friends cried disaster
yet the economy thrived and grew ever faster

KEYNES
You too only see what you want to see
The spending on war clearly goosed GDP
Unemployment was over, almost down to zero
That’s why I’m the master, that’s why I’m the hero

HAYEK
Creating employment’s a straigtforward craft
When the nation’s at war, and there’s a draft
If every worker was staffed in the army and fleet
We’d be at full employment with nothing to eat

REFRAIN

HAYEK
jobs are the means, not the ends in themselves
people work to live better, to put food on the shelves
real growth means production of what people demand
That’s entrepreneurship not your central plan

KEYNES
My solution is simple and easy to handle..
its spending that matters, why’s that such a scandal?
The money sloshes through the pipes and the sluices
revitalizing the economy’s juices

it’s just like an engine that’s stalled and gone dark
To bring it to life, we need a quick spark
Spending’s the life blood that gets the flow going
Where it goes doesn’t matter, just get spending flowing

HAYEK
You see slack in some sectors as a “general glut”
But some sectors are healthy, and some in a rut
So spending’s not free – that’s the heart of the matter
too much is wasted as cronies get fatter.

The economy’s not a car, there’s no engine to stall
no expert can fix it, there’s no “it” at all.
The economy’s us, we don’t need a mechanic
Put away the wrenches, the economy’s organic

REFRAIN

KEYNES
so what would you do to help those unemployed?
this is the question you seem to avoid
when we’re in a mess, would you just have us wait?
Doing nothing until markets equil-i-brate?

HAYEK
I don’t want to do nothing, there’s plenty to do
The question I ponder is who plans for who?
Do I plan for myself or leave it to you?
I want plans by the many and not by the few.

We shouldn’t repeat what created our troubles
I want real growth not just a series of bubbles
Let’s stop bailing out losers and let prices work
If we don’t try to steer them they won’t go berserk

KEYNES
Come on, Are you kidding? Don’t Wall Street’s gyrations
Challenge your world view of self-regulation?
Even you must admit that the lesson we’ve learned
Is more oversight’s needed or else we’ll get burned

HAYEK
Oversight? The government’s long been in bed
With the Wall Street execs and the firms that they’ve led
Prosperity’s all about profit and loss
When you bail out the losers there’s no end to the cost

the lesson I’ve learned? It’s how little we know,
the world is complex, not some circular flow
the economy’s not a class you can master in college
to think otherwise is the pretense of knowledge

REFRAIN

KEYNES
You get on your high horse and you’re off to the races
I look at the world on a case by case basis
When people are suffering I roll up my sleeves
And do what I can to cure our disease

The future’s uncertain, our outlooks are frail
Thats why free markets are so prone to fail
In a volatile world we need more discretion
So state intervention can counter depression

HAYEK
People aren’t chessmen you can move on a board
at your whim–their dreams and desires ignored
With political incentives, discretion’s a joke
The dials you’re twisting… are just mirrors and smoke

the market’s a process where we can discover
the most valuable ways to serve one another
we need stable rules and real market prices
so prosperity emerges and cuts short the crisis

REFRAIN
Which way should we choose?
more bottom up or more top down
the fight continues…
Keynes and Hayek’s second round

it’s time to weigh in…
more from the top or from ground
…lets listen to the greats
Keynes and Hayek throwing down

Eco-Fascist Dance Off

While Al Gore did his climate change/snake oil pitch at Power Shift 2011 in DC:

"I guess it's a sign of cultural decline if nobody bothers to look ridiculous. The real problem arises when the hippies get their way and let our industries look worse than in the third world. Nobody in a poor country can afford to behave as stupid as these eco-fascists."

Muslim Brotherhood Eclipsing Middle Class Activists in Egypt - The Telegraph

The Muslim Brotherhood, Egypt's largest Islamic movement and the founder of Hamas, has set up a network of political parties around the country that eclipse the following of the middle class activists that overthrew the regime. On the extreme fringe of the Brotherhood, Islamic groups linked to al-Qeada are organising from the mosques to fill the vacuum left by the collapse of the dictatorship.

The military-led government already faces accusations that it is bowing to the surge in support for the Muslim movements, something that David Cameron warned of in February when he said Egyptian democracy would be strongly Islamic.

Benjamin Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister, warned on Sunday that the direction of Egyptian politics was anti-Israeli. He told diplomats last week that Egyptian officials – including Nabil al-Arabi, the foreign minister – were pandering to political militants by branding Israel as the "enemy".
