Environmentalism: The Anti-humanist Religion

And God looked upon the world and was displeased, so He unleashed a thousand-million regulations to curtail the activities of the creature He created in His image so that they would not destroy all that He had created. Among the new orders on the Eighth Day, God pronounced man should use low-flush toilets and low-flow showerheads, and He smiled because it was good. Then, God looked out on the world and saw how coal burning to create electricity was bad, so He forbade the creation of new nuclear plants, and He smiled because it was good.

Verily did God then perceive the many consequences unleashed by Him when He gave man free will, and he was displeased, so He created a Legion of Anti-Man to work assiduously to undo all that God had allowed man to do, and He smiled because it was good. The the Legion set out to hinder all human activity, mandating what kinds of food man should eat, how fast man should drive his automobiles, how big motor vehicles should be, what kind of light bulbs should be used, and, in His final triumph, God allowed the Legion to begin turning all of mankind's progress on its head, ordering all of mankind to suffer the deprivations of all the generations past by making animals of all sorts - from the lowliest mosquito to the lowliest fish to the most inconsequential rodent - the master's of man's domain, and He smiled, because it was good.

And then, in His final act, God commanded man to bow down to all that lived on Earth, to ignore Him as the Creator and to acknowledge that it all meant nothing, that it was all just a Cosmic Joke. Sorry for the inconvenience, He said, and smiled, because it was good.

Organic Food Does Not Equal "Healthy" Food

I've been telling people this for years, but, for some reason, nobody believes me. Food is food:

Organic food has no nutritional or health benefits over ordinary food, according to a major study published Wednesday.

Researchers from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine said consumers were paying higher prices for organic food because of its perceived health benefits, creating a global organic market worth an estimated $48 billion in 2007.

A systematic review of 162 scientific papers published in the scientific literature over the last 50 years, however, found there was no significant difference.

As far as I can tell, labeling food "organic" - usually meaning grown without chemicals and/or modern farming techniques - is just a way savvy food producers play on the heartstrings of the environmentalists and foodies, most of whom seem to think there is something inherently better in the "older" or "more natural" ways of growing food. (You know, those ways that often led to rampant hunger - or starvation. It's almost as if the organic foods crowd has no idea why farming is done the way it is these days...)

Plus, organic food costs more. Sometimes, way more than regular old food. (Via Insty)

A Tale of Two Pitches

Doug Ross shows a side-by-side comparison of the "first pitch" of two entirely different kinds of presidents. I'm calling it Cowboy v. Sowboy (pork barrel spender is why).

Proof of Groundwater Contamination...

As recorded on video by a highly informed, very educated California environmentalist type who most-likely always votes for Democrats. Enjoy:

Yet another reason this country is FUBAR. Idiots like this think they're capable of voting rationally.

A Moron is Born Every Minute

Technically speaking, that is. But you wouldn't want to use this technique:

Basic sex education teaches us that the so-called “pull-out” method is an unreliable and risky method of contraception. But a new study suggests that, in terms of pregnancy prevention, withdrawal works just as well as condoms.

Only a complete moron would believe this, and only a full-on idiotic NYT-reading/trusting leftist-reality-based nincompoop would advocate this method. Ahem: no male wants to pull out at the moment of maximum physical pleasure. None. Zilch. Zero. They may say they want to do this, but they do not want to do this.

I'm just guessing here, but the "pull-out" method is probably the leading cause of abortions.

Obama's Not-So-Hidden Agenda

Obama is not a communist, only his political agenda is. Do not confuse one with the other. Hunh? In a lengthy defense of Obama and his agenda, the head of the Communist Party of the USA bluntly states the following:

Yes, socialism is our objective and, according to recent public opinion polls, it is increasingly attractive to the American people. But clearly it is not on the immediate political agenda. Neither the current balance of forces nor the thinking of millions of Americans – the starting point in any serious discussion of strategy and tactics – has reached that point.

That socialism isn’t on the people’s action agenda, however, doesn’t mean that we should zip our lips. Quite the contrary! We should talk it up and bring our modern, deeply democratic Twenty-First-Century vision of U.S. socialism into coalitions and mass movements. And with the use of the Internet we can reach an exponentially bigger audience than we could in the past.

As for our radicalism, we should be as radical as reality itself. And reality strongly suggests that our main task is to bring the weight of the working class and other democratic forces to bear on the reform process with the aim of deepening its anti-corporate content and direction.

I guess that settles what's going on in America.

File Under WTF!?

I am endlessly astounded by the notion we humans are born with non-essential body parts, but this "study" is moronic:

Having a male sex partner who has been circumcised doesn't hurt a woman's sexual satisfaction -- and may improve it, according to a landmark study in Uganda.

First off, there can be no "landmark" studies conducted in Uganda regarding women's sexual satisfaction. This is impossible. Second, did the study use any sort of actual "testing" to determine this "outcome," or was it just a "study" done based on the answers to a questionnaire? If I cared more, I'd find out, but I don't, because this is just propaganda to promote some agenda of which I do not care to investigate further.

Why there are people out there promoting male circumcision is a mystery to me, since there are no health benefits to it. None. These people would be better served focusing on preventing female circumcision, which likewise has no health benefits. Circumcision's only "benefit" is the hoped-for lessening of sexual desire by desensitizing the head of the penis due to constant rubbing on clothing, and we all in possession of a penis know this desired outcome does not occur.

Talk About Pork...

Via Charlie Foxtrot, a link to the world's most expensive ham. Yep, a half-million/pound ham, and you thought that Wagyu beef O! likes to eat cost a lot!! Here's a screen cap to hedge against the memory hole. This is your government at work on your behalf. And you don't even get a slice.

I mean, if this wasn't right there on the government's website you wouldn't believe it. You almost have to figure somebody hacked it to make O! look even more clueless than normal. Sigh...

Revolution No. 2 (?)

Interesting rant about the state of the nation and what to do about it:

The Slow Devolution of "Liberal" to "Tyrant"

Mark Tapscott explains how "liberalism" slowly evolved into "tyranny." A death of a thousand cuts, if you will.

And, sadly, most "liberals" don't even realize they actively support those who would suppress their rights and freedoms. That is, they vote against their self-interests in the belief they are advancing some sort of smiley-face goodness that will improve the lot of everyone. In reality, they are taking freedom and liberty from their very own pockets and handing it to the government in exchange for nothing.

Obama Suckers Get Suckered Again

Ha ha ha ha ha:

Taken together, the House health tax, President Obama's own tax plan and Albany's recent, supposed "temporary" tax hike would bring New York's effective marginal tax rate on top earners to nearly 57 percent, compared to just over 45 percent only a year ago, according to the Washington-based Tax Foundation.

For New York City residents, it would be closer to 59 percent, the highest in the nation.

And these are the exact suckers who probably couldn't contain their joy at the thought of voting for Obama.

This is the End, My Only Friend, The End

We'll see if this bears out, but we as a nation can only hope that the change is done.

Leftist Science and the Human Race ... We Lose

Or, how I learned to hate the human race and embrace a eugenics program. O!'s top science advisor has some - ahem - interesting views on how populations across the globe should be controlled. This is science?

How to Lie About the Economy

The mainstream media at work constructing the narrative:

Just so we're clear on where the media is when it comes to something so significant as reporting on the state of the nation's economy: when Republicans are in charge, EVERYTHING SUCKS; when Democrats are in charge, EVERYTHING ROCKS.

They think we don't notice, but that's because the idiots in the media only read/watch the other idiots in the media, so the echo chamber drowns out the reality of the outside world.

Dying on the Vine

The National Energy Tax (cough, cough "cap and trade") appears to be dying on the vine:

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama's push for quick action by Congress on climate change legislation suffered a setback on Thursday when the U.S. Senate committee leading the drive delayed work on the bill until September.

Senate Environment and Public Works Committee Chairman Barbara Boxer said her self-imposed deadline of early August for finishing writing a bill to combat global warming has been put off until after Congress returns from a recess that ends in early September.

I don't think there's any way it gets done after that, seeing as how Obama's approval ratings are going in the tank the more he "rules" the nation. People are beginning to wake up to what's going on around them, and who's doing it to them, and they are slowly concluding that O! and the Dems are up to no good on the one hand, and incompetent on the other. People don't like to be ruled; they prefer to be governed. But, the ambitious plans of the lying sacks of shit socialist Democrats are tantamount to coup detat, and nobody really wants to pay twice as much for energy consumption and precious few want to eff up the health care system in the country just because it sounds kind-hearted on some moronic make-believe level.

The Libertarian Suckers Get Ass-Fucked by Dems

One of my best friends is a self-described libertarian (as am I, in the little L sense) who was suckered in last year by the Obama deluge and HOPE'N'CHANGE. This will either end in tears or higher taxes, or both, but it will end next year. I mean, c'mon "libertarian Democrats?" That's an oxymoron of epic proportions, along the lines of "socialist capitalists." Democrats are by definition anti-liberty top-down control freaks who mean to limit your liberty and dictate your options.

And if they can't manage to do that (they won't, successfully, given their current tax-and-spend approach to destroying the American economy), they'll accidentally turn us into Zimbabwe. Well, that may be taking it a bit far, but, then, Zimbabwe isn't Rhodesia any more, either.

So, remember:

The Moron of The United States

Yep, this douchebag Barack Obama is officially the Moron of The United States. That's MOTUS, along with TOTUS and the like. Why?

Because in an age when Third World basket case nations and terrorist organizations are trying to figure out how to acquire nuclear weapons, the *cough cough* "leader" of the - ahem - "free world" is trying to figure out how to disarm the United States of its nuclear weapons. Idiot.

It's almost as if this half-wit nincompoop is frozen in history in 1983 and mired in the political ideologies of the 1930s.

But I especially like how the word "nuclear" before the word "bomb" makes "nuclear bomb" more frightening to pacifistic leftist socialists than any other kind of bomb, as if they all don't accomplish the same task.

Has the Gauntlet Been Taken Up?

Regarding the recent Palin resignation, I have no real way of knowing the "why." Additionally, what comes next for her - eternal retirement or some campaign trail - is a mystery to me. But, dear God, I hope this analysis is accurate:

Sue them, bankrupt them, ruin their lives, destroy their careers, shut down their blogs and other propaganda outlets, get ‘em locked up wherever possible. Kick them in the teeth again and again, until they howl in pain from the gutter they roll in. Scorch the very earth under their feet. Unleash pure hell on them, and make every single day of their lives a horror and a misery — just as they did to you, just as they’ve done to so many other decent men and women who have the temerity to disagree with their anti-American ideal of what this country should be. Liberal asswipes have gotten away with this sort of thing for far too long.

Palin’s political career is over, you say? If she takes the fight to the villainous curs and sees to it that they get what they so richly deserve for abusing our legal system and undermining our system of government, every true conservative in the country will cheer her loud and long, and will eagerly cast their votes for her in whatever election she decides to contest — which would be a welcome change from dragging ourselves to the polls with reluctance and dismay. Hopefully, this is but the opening salvo in a long, vigorous, and thorough fight. We’ll see. If Palin keeps after them, the sky will be the limit for her. We’ve been waiting for this a long time, and she’s just the person to make it happen.

Reap the whirlwind, you odious, gutless, evil pricks.

This is the kind of thing to which I could easily donate my money. Let's hope Palin has taken up the challenge. America needs someone to fight these socialists disguised as Democrats.
