60 MINUTES TAKES OUR ENEMIES AND THEIR ACTIVISTS ON A TOUR OF A NUCLEAR LAUNCH CONTROL CENTER Posted: 28 Apr 2014 12:26 AM PDT There is little doubt in my mind that 60 Minutes reflects the political position of the Obama Administration and their cadre of progressive socialist democrats … Am I the only person who is pissed off that 60 Minutes did a great disservice to America and our Air Force by embarking upon what I believe to be a sponsored publicity tour of a Nuclear Launch Control Center?
Highlighting an aging system that used 8” floppy disks and appears to be held together with legacy systems. In my opinion, this is information is not need to know by the greater population! While 60 Minutes did not reveal CNWDI-level secrets (Critical Nuclear Weapons Design Information), they did cast a long shadow of doubt on the men and women who stand at the ready to protect the United States against nuclear attack. Yes, there have been morale issues, and people were caught cheating on exams – not to cover up information deficiencies, but to insure a perfect 100% score. Yes, we have had near nuclear accidents, but revealing this information to progressive socialist democrats only encourages the socialist/communist peaceniks to continue their protests against nuclear weapons. I can anticipate a renewed outcry to dismantle our nuclear weapons and/or reduce our missile counts … with the 60 Minutes piece ginning up additional anti-Missile opposition. The fact that 60 Minutes concentrated on past nuclear weapon-related incidents and stressing that our command and control system is complex and aging is deeply troubling. And the suggestion that we do not need land-based missiles is unfounded. Bottom line … To see that 60 Minutes characterized the Missile Command as a second-rate assignment rather than an elite posting was deeply troubling. The real issue facing the United States military is that the command structure is becoming hyper-politicized and, in the present instance, faces opposition from civilian overloads steeped in soviet-style socialist propaganda and who apparently holds the military in low regard. Generals, Admirals, and other hard-charging squared away officers are routinely eliminated and demoted by the political bullshit coming from the White House – in reality, probably Valerie Jarrett and he socialist-trained cohorts. What I would like to see is simple. A return to the ethics and efficiency of the Strategic Air Command, where motto “Peace is our profession,” was unofficially supplemented by “To err is human, to forgive is divine – neither one of which is SAC operational policy.” I would also like for these media morons to be denied access to critical facilities and information. -- steve |
DO AL SHARPTON, JESSE JACKSON SEE THE RACIST RANT OF NBA OWNER AS A PROFIT AND MEDIA OPPORTUNITY? Posted: 28 Apr 2014 12:27 AM PDT This is a self-answering question as both Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson appear to be commenting on the alleged racist rant of an NBA owner …
Look to Harvey Levin and TMZ to expose more of the story. It has been suggested that this is not an organic story, but an attempt by an estranged lover embroiled in a million-dollar lawsuit to exact revenge. Race and money …
Sort of highlights the value of the awards given to those politically powerful donors who contribute big money and who sponsor and underwrite events Bottom line … A billionaire with a major public relations problem appears to be a vulnerable target for those who will sell radical sensitivity training, monitoring, and damage mitigation services to avoid forced divestment or boycott. I wonder if we will see the Jewish NBA owner praying with Sharpton or Jackson; or at least doing a public mea culpa in their presence. By the way, did anyone notice that the alleged racist is a big-time democrat, lauded by progressive socialist organizations and the progressive media? -- steve |
IRS CANNOT DISCIPLINE ITS OWN PEOPLE: WHY PUBLIC EMPLOYEE UNIONS MUST BE ELIMINATED Posted: 26 Apr 2014 06:10 PM PDT As my readers know, I am not a fan of unions, be they trade unions or public employee unions. I am dead set against any organization that is based on corrupting politicians to advance their own agenda. I am also dead set against any organization that rewards seniority over merit, limits innovation to maintain the status quo, imposes work rules that split one-person jobs into multiple segments requiring multiple people, and demands increased benefits with little or no increase in productivity to pay for the increase benefits. In fact, it appears to me that most unions care little or nothing about their members other than to provide a continuing revenue stream that can be invested by their union bosses; and in some cases investment decisions riddled with corruption and cronyism. As a demonstration of the clear and present danger public employee unions present to America and all Americans, let us consider the Internal Revenue Service … If non-governmental workers do not report their income, under-report their income, or fail to pay their taxes, we are in trouble with the Internal Revenue Service. In many cases, evading your taxes may be a criminal matter. And, for those who underpay or do not pay their taxes, there is the spectre of criminal prosecution and civil forfeiture. The IRS garnishes your wages or puts a lien on your property – or in extreme cases confiscates your property to sell at auction. In many cases IRS will serve as the enforcement arm of federal and state agencies and withhold, apparently without question, any tax refund that you may be due. Not to mention that the IRS is the enforcement arm of the Department of Health and Human Services when it comes to penalizing non-participation in the Obamacare insurance scam that is decimating the insurance industry and destroying individual healthcare.
Scandal and cover-up … Even worse, the Internal Revenue Service is apparently engaged in a cover-up of an unconstitutional and illegal use of the IRS, to pursue, harass, and deny tax exempt status to conservative causes seeking a tax exemption. This constitutes felonious conduct that can send people to jail.
The Chief of the IRS Section involved in these matters has consistently lied to Congress, before exerting Fifth Amendment protections against self-incrimination. The Attorney General, Department of Justice, and the FBI appear to be complicit in extending the cover-up for political reasons – perhaps beyond the 2014 congressional election cycle that threatens the progressive socialist democrat majority in the Senate where high-ranking officials and judges have been confirmed on party lines without additional scrutiny. Of course, the Senate, under the leadership of the corrupt Harry Reid, refuses to bring key legislation to the floor for a vote and is complicit in using rules ‘tricks’ to pass legislation, such as Obamacare, that cannot withstand scrutiny and passed in an ordinary bi-partisan manner. The IRS gave bonuses to IRS employees who owed taxes and were subject to disciplinary hearings …
Blame the public employee union that covers IRS workers …
Now we are about to see the progressive socialist democrats slime their own Inspector General … Inspector Generals have a thankless task. They are reviled by the agency and individuals they investigate, not to mention the regime in power at the time of wrongdoing. Apparently in an effort to defuse the Inspector General’s politically damaging reports, the progressive socialists are now attempting to attack the Treasury Attorney General and show that he is not above reproach.
Look for the progressive socialist democrats to begin personally attacking the man in the near future. I would not be surprised to see that the IG has socialized with political types in furtherance of his career, or possibly citing the appearance of wrongdoing by his subordinates. The politics of personal destruction as defined by the corrupt Hillary Clinton and used to great effect to protect her lying, cheating presidential husband. Bottom line … Under the past two Administrations, we have seen the government lose significant credibility with the very people for whom they work,”We the People.” Not since the corrupt and contemptible former President Richard Nixon tried to illegally use the IRS against his political enemies – for which he was threatened with impeachment – have we seen such corruption and hyper-politicization in public agencies. The IRS was always tough, but were considered apolitical and without taint. Now, they are at the center of a scandal that demands reform and the investigation and prosecution of IRS employees. The progressive socialist democrats have benefited from the IRS scandal, some suggesting that the additional tax-exempt funding could have resulted in the defeat of Barack Obama. Interference in presidential elections is a felony. And, now the progressive socialist democrats are engaged in a cover-up to delay or de-track any investigation that could damage the party prior to the 2014 election. It is time to throw the progressive socialist democrats and their RINO cohorts out of office – especially the House of Representatives and the United States Senate. Enough with political and crony corruption. Time to start rebuilding America. -- steve |
WHY THE PROGRESSIVE SOCIALIST DEMOCRATS NEED AFFIRMATIVE ACTION IN SCHOOL ADMISSIONS Posted: 26 Apr 2014 06:09 PM PDT The race-baiters, race-hustlers, and poverty pimps would have you believe that any college admissions process that does not take into account the race of the applicant is de facto racist and the issue must be addressed by the Congress and the federal courts. Nothing could be farther from the truth. The issue is that the progressive socialist democrats and their progressive socialist teachers unions have done an abysmal job in education our children, especially those located in the inner cities. Perhaps the real scandal is that all of the money paid by the taxpayers to be spent on students and in the classrooms have been diverted to massive infrastructure projects that favor politically-connected special interests or diverted to unwarranted salaries, perks, and privileges that benefit incompetent teachers as well as skilled teachers. With multiple millions flowing into union pension and welfare programs that are administered by the unions, possibly with corruption and cronyism. The politicians want your tax dollars without damaging that politically-protected class of tenured teachers who must be called to account for their teaching skills and subject-matter knowledge. The progressive democrats do not want testing of teachers or students. And, when testing students, there is often cheating by the teachers and administrators – even though the tests are artificially dumbed-down so they can be passed by the lowest common denominator of student. And, heaven forbid you mention a charter school – likely to be better than public schools, and even more egregious from the position of the progressive socialist democrats, non-union. The progressive socialist democrats believe that your children are their property and that they, and they alone, are responsible for their welfare outside of the home. The unions believe that public money belongs to them and that vouchers for public schools and/or charter schools would highlight inefficient and failing schools, incentivizing the switch to private, non-union schooling. Even worse … We are dooming ill-prepared children to failure when they are admitted to top-flight schools based on affirmative action. When confronted with this no-excuses, competitive environment, these students are prone to drop out and never return. The shame and failure should be on the corrupt and uncaring progressive socialist unions and their political cronies, the corrupt progressive socialist democrats. Bottom line … It is not that the progressive socialist democrats want affirmative action or even care about your children – they want political power and access to public funds. Any public good is merely a side benefit. Time to remove the progressive socialist democrats from the House, Senate, and the Bureaucracy. Time to eliminate public employee unions that have not served us well and whose continued political corruption threatens to bankrupt us all in the finest “shared misery” socialism manner. It’s your choice and nobody is holding a gun to your head in the privacy of the voting booth. -- steve |
