At its foundation Conservatism is a political philosophy predicated upon a person's ability to differentiate between progress and change.

Sadly, it is useless and frustrating to attempt to explain it to Liberals because they cannot differentiate between progress and change. Trying to explain Conservatism to them is very much akin to trying to explain the color blue to a born-blind person.]]></description>

Most telling of the words that define Obama are, "I" and the variant forms of, "Them," and how he uses them to define the narrative surrounding himself and, extension, how the boy seeks to define himself and his place in history and the American narrative.

Obama loves to use "I" whenever someone does something that is laudable in order to insinuate himself into the situation and take credit for it's happening. Conversely, he will always speak of "Them" whenever something is unpleasant, wrong, or criminal in order to shield himself from any blame being attached to him.

That's Obama's defining narrative. Taking all the credit and none of the blame.]]></description>

[interject]To be fair social conservatives &#038; the religious right have an equally poor understanding of, "Bear arms" and "Shall not be infringed" when it comes to queers and women in the military.[/interject] 

The Left is, not wholly undeservedly, shocked and appalled by the violent crime rates in America and the force multiplier that firearms provide to the criminal classes. Hence, they are more than willing to violate the natural rights of Americans in order to provide the appearance of greater security to the people as a whole. ]]></description>

<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><img class="left-image" style="margin-top:5px;" title="jonolan" src="http://i1.wp.com/blog.jonolan.net/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/dark.thumbnail.jpg?resize=36%2C36" alt="" data-recalc-dims="1" /><em>To be fair, social conservatives &amp; the religious right have an equally poor understanding of, &#8220;Bear arms&#8221; and &#8220;Shall not be infringed&#8221; when it comes to queers and women in the military.</em></p>
<p>The Left is, not wholly undeservedly, shocked and appalled by the violent crime rates in America and the force multiplier that firearms provide to the criminal classes. Hence, they are more than willing to violate the natural rights of Americans in order to provide the appearance of greater security to the people as a whole.</p>

<a title="White House - News Conference by the President 1/14/2013" href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/photos-and-video/video/2013/01/14/president-obama-holds-news-conference#transcript" target="_blank">January 14, 2013</a></p>
</blockquote>
<p>This is, at its core, a case of consequentialism trumping deontology. It is also a case of blaming the tools for actions of those who use them. Worse, it doesn&#8217;t even begin to address the underlying problems of violence and crime within America&#8217;s borders.</p>
<p>Their logic would be better used, insofar as utility and effect is concerned, by apply the Liberals&#8217; and Progressives&#8217; pogrom to the &#8220;Black Community.&#8221; Blacks, who only make up approximately 13% of the US population, are disproportionately represented in the &#8220;criminal classes.&#8221; They consistently account for:</p>
<ul>
<li>50% of the homicides;</li>
<li>45% of the violent crimes;</li>
<li>39% of the overall crimes in the US;</li>
<li>and 28% of the repeat / career criminals.</li>
</ul>
<p>Given these figures, if &#8220;reasonable restrictions&#8221; are going to be placed upon Constitutional rights, America would be <em>far</em> better served by restricting the freedoms enumerate in the 13 Amendment as opposed to the 2nd Amendment.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">&#8211; US Constitution, 13th Amendment, Section 1</p>
</blockquote>
<p>America could slash its crime rate, especially its violent crime rate, by simply utilizing penal servitude and putting the criminal Blacks back in chains and putting them to the work that Americans instead rely upon illegal immigrants and foreign labor to perform.</p>

<div style="text-align: center;"><strong class="highlight">Upon Some Freedom Is Worse Than Wasted</strong></div>
<p>Even better, unlike the Left&#8217;s attacks upon the sanctity of the 2nd Amendment, no such attack upon the 13th Amendment is needed. It already contains the exception that the government, be it Federal or State, continues to have the right to hold slaves if such slavery was enacted as a punishment for a crime.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>If there is a step we can take that will save even one child from what happens regularly in Chicago, we should take that step.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">&#8211; jonolan<br />
June 03, 2013</p>
</blockquote>
<p>There is no reasonable and/or rational doubt that, if we&#8217;re to abridge the liberties enumerated in- and protected by the Constitution for the laudable sake of public safety and security, such abridgements <em>need</em> to be effective. Returning those Blacks who cannot or will not become a viable facet of American society to slavery would be vastly more effective than trying to disarm law abiding American citizens.</p>
<p>And, once again in order to drive home one the more salient points of this argument, these proposed &#8220;reasonable restriction&#8221; on the freedoms Blacks enjoy thanks to the 13th Amendment don&#8217;t require that the amendment in question be changed or violated.</p>
<h3>Are You Offended?</h3>
<p>If you&#8217;re an American &#8211; or a total foreigner to America reading this article from afar &#8211; and you&#8217;re offended by it, I&#8217;m glad; it&#8217;s an utterly offensive though, likely, effective idea. Conversely, if you&#8217;re on of America&#8217;s domestic enemies, the Liberals and Progressives, you&#8217;ve neither the right nor the privilege of being offended by it as this is just the application of your own logic to a different Amendment of the Constitution than the ones you and your sort normally attack.</p>

AP, with understandable ire, describes this as a massive and unprecedented intrusion into its gathering of news.

Here's the thing; it's all bullshit!

Yes, given the boy's track record, Obama's use of his favorite "house negro," Holder's DoJ to assault AP and investigate their reporters' sources is an easy target for Americans to verbally fire upon. It's easy to see this behavior as another <em>prima facie</em> example of Obama's desire for tyranny and his despite for America's constitution.

AP, with understandable ire, describes this as a massive and unprecedented intrusion into its gathering of news.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the thing; it&#8217;s all bullshit!</p>
<p>Yes, given the boy&#8217;s track record, Obama&#8217;s use of his favorite &#8220;house negro,&#8221; Holder&#8217;s DoJ to assault AP and investigate their reporters&#8217; sources is an easy target for Americans to verbally fire upon. It&#8217;s easy to see this behavior as another <em>prima facie</em> example of Obama&#8217;s desire for tyranny and his despite for America&#8217;s constitution. That doesn&#8217;t mean that this is the right way to approach this particular situation.</p>
<p>By all the accounts that we have, including AP&#8217;s own assessment of the Obama Regime&#8217;s rationale for the seizure of their telephone records, the DoJ is investigating who leaked sensitive intelligence data to the press. It is likely the result of a May 7, 2012 article that revealed the CIA thwarted a bomb plot planned to originate out of Yemen to avenge the death of former al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, who was killed by US Navy SEALs one year earlier.</p>
<p>This is well within the purview of Executive and is a matter of national security. We <em>have</em> to trace the leaks and take <em>whatever</em> steps are needed to prevent a repeat offense. There is no intrinsic difference between the leak to Associated Press and the Leaks to Wikileaks and I sincerely doubt that there&#8217;s a single American who say that any investigation into- or reprisal against Wikileaks and/or its sources was wrong.</p>
<p>Obama and his cabal may well be engaging in this behavior for the wrong reason but their actions are consistent in this instance with the best interests of America. We should remember that surprising fact.</p>

Currently, their trying to pouch the US Airways and American Airlines mehanics from their existing unions. This is causing a lot of anger in the unions the Teamsters have targeted as prey.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>As a trade unionist, I’m outraged and disgusted that the Teamsters plan to waste the time and resources of their members in an unprincipled raid against union members at US Airways. Let’s call this what it is: The IBT is behaving like a parasite. They are desperately attempting to feed off another organization to cover up their own failures. This has everything to do with the Bureau of Labor Statistics reporting that the IBT lost more members than any other union last year and nothing to do with the needs of aircraft mechanics.</em></p>

Air Transport Division Director, TWU</p>
</blockquote>
<p>To be heartlessly fair though, nobody &#8211; not even the filth who run the labor soviets &#8211; should be surprised by this behavior. The Teamsters have a long and infamous history or predatory practices.  Throughout the decades of their unfortunate existence they&#8217;re raided and sought to destroy union after union. That&#8217;s part of why they finally left AFL-CIO which tried to curtail that sort of behavior.</p>
<p>For Americans though, this is good news. Whenever the unions feast upon each other instead of the productive American population its a good thing.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[After an amazingly long delay Congressional hearing on the circumstances and actions that allowed the massacred of the American Consulate staff in Libya have begun. Theoretically the goal of these hearings is to determine if the attack could have been prevented or successfully defended against if Obama's people had acted differently. Presumably, there will also be some focus upon whether or not Obama and his staff deliberately lied to Congress and the American people about the actions they took before, during, and after the Islamists attacked the Consulate in Benghazi.

It's safe to say that Obama and his cronies are less than pleased that this is happening. Obama absolutely loathes being questioned or held accountable by anyone for his behavior.

<strong class="highlight">Silence! What Does It Matter?</strong></p>
<p>The sad fact of the matter, however, is that this whole pageant bores me more than I can properly express. I just can&#8217;t force myself to care about it very much at all and I can&#8217;t for the life of me understand why anyone else, beyond the survivors and the families of the victims, care about it either.</p>
<h3>Life&#8217;s Rough Justice</h3>
<p>The victims: Stevens, Smith, Doherty, and Woods worked for Obama though, in Doherty&#8217;s, and Woods&#8217; case this was quite indirectly as they were mercenaries the CIA contracted to provide physical security. Why would I care if Obama&#8217;s people died for any reason, much less while furthering his agenda or through his malfeasance?</p>
<p>Much like the shooting of Giffords or the Boston Marathon Bombing, Liberals, people employed by their own choice by Liberals, or people tacitly supporting Liberals by their presence died or were horribly injured. This does not raise any outrage in me at all.</p>
<h3>Political Kabuki</h3>
<p>These hearings are nothing but overly stylized political theater. They&#8217;re filled with much noise but contain no substance. Beyond a certain amount of political posturing in the run-up to the next Congressional elections, the Benghazi hearings serve no purpose at all so why would they interest me.</p>
<p>No matter what the House finds nothing will come of it because the Senate is in the hands of the Democrats and Sen. Reid and his ilk would turn a blind eye to any misdeed or crime committed by Obama and his people. That has already been proven by the Fast and Furious debacle.</p>
<p class="highlight" style="text-align: center;">~*~</p>
<p>Hellfire, People! This is just reality television and it&#8217;s boring because it&#8217;s meaningless.</p>

<p>Sadly, Obama constantly tries to infect others with his ideology, much as a plague rat or an AIDS-infected rapist would. A current example would be the <a href="http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2013/05/05/obama_to_ohio_state_grads_reject_voices_that_warn_about_government_tyranny.html" title="Real Clear Politics - Obama To Grads: Reject Voices That Warn About Government Tyranny" target="_blank">commencement address</a> he gave to the graduating class of The Ohio State University on May 5, 2013.</p>
<blockquote><p><em>Unfortunately, you&#8217;ve grown up hearing voices that incessantly warn of government as nothing more than some separate, sinister entity that&#8217;s at the root of all our problems. Some of these same voices also do their best to gum up the works. They&#8217;ll warn that tyranny always lurking just around the corner. You should reject these voices. Because what they suggest is that our brave, and creative, and unique experiment in self-rule is somehow just a sham with which we can&#8217;t be trusted.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: right;">&#8211; Barack Obama</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Obama&#8217;s admonition to these graduates is a classic &#8220;Obamanism.&#8221; Of course he wants America&#8217;s youth to reject the truth and place their faith in the government, ignoring the fact that the government is increasingly aloof from we, the People and on the fast track to overt tyranny. Nothing that the boy wants to inflict upon America, the nation he loathes more than any other, can be achieved unless the population accepts the government as parent, overlord, and god.</p>
<p>Frankly, rejecting the warnings that tyranny always lurking just around the corner is how we Americans found ourselves in the horrific place we are now. It&#8217;s quite telling that Obama wants us to continue this folly.</p>
