Abortion is Soooooo 90s!

A most excellent piece from Gavin McInnes at Taki Magazine.

"What he said!"

And if you are already on Taki's site, check out Jim Goad's most excellent "Tiptoeing Through A Minefield of Pansy Asses". 

Nodding and smiling, laughing all the way to re-education camp on both of these....

Jews Riot in Italy Over Cartoons

Heh.

JUST KIDDING. 

Now, I do not believe that anyone should be prosecuted for cartoons no matter how offensive they are.

But, it's pretty hard to convince me that this little Jew doodle ("Joodle?") is NOT antisemitic.

The Italian dude who suggested that it was antisemitic was convicted of slander and had to pay the cartoonist a $30,000 fine.

Gentle Revert Found Beheaded

Fat lot of good converting did for a British "gentle soul" Khalil/Ken.

So very hard to make a case for your own life ("can't we just talk about this") when your head is detached from the rest of your body.

Butchered, like an animal (halal slaughter) despite his impeccable credentials.

Imagine that.

Smarter Than You!

Whose sooooper smart writing is this?

Who is the most excellent Ivy League web editor today?

Click me, baby!

  • "Since the merits of the Law Review’s selection policy has been the subject of commentary for the last three issues, I’d like to take the time to clarify exactly how our selection process works"
  • "Once all the writing competition submissions have been graded, these scores, as well as the law school transcripts of all those who have chosen to release the [sic], are submitted to a Selection Committee made up of the President ad [sic]two other Review editors who have been elected by their fellow editors."

  •  "as someone who has undoubtedly benefited from affirmative action programs during my academic career, and as someone who may have benefited from the Law Review’s affirmative action policy when I was selected to join the Review last year, I have not personally felt stigmatized either within the broader law school community or as a staff member of the Review." [Ed note: NO COMMENT]
  • "I would therefore agree with the suggestion that in the future, our concern in this area ia [sic] most appropriately directed at any employer who would even insinuate that someone with Mr. Chen’s extraordinary record of academic success might be somehow unqualified for work in a corporate law firm, or that such success might be somehow undeserved."
  • "Such attributes speak less.."
At least he admits to being a poster child of affirmative action  reverse racism policies. He couldn't write, and was the affirmative action choice, but at least he never felt stigmatized-and that's the main thing!




Good Plan

Artists: Your Moral and Intellectual And Creative Superiors

Apparently, Berlin is basking in the glow of edgy artwork again. No satisfied with having made his mark with a photo of naked men prancing/showering in the gas chambers, a European "artist" has come back with a vengance.

It's art, you philistines.

Oh, and speaking of philistines, the Old Ancestral Impressionism Cubist Key Motif!!

She is ALIIIIIIIIVE!!!!!!

The key, the key to the old ancestral home in Jaffa!

Or was it Ramallah? Or Haifa? Who cares?!?!

The point is that the uppity Jews TOOK OUR LAND. And they must be, errr..destroyed!

As part of the exhibition, residents of a Palestinian refugee camp in the West...

Jizyah!

A new, steaming, hulking chunk of your hard earned tax dollars, my American friends, is once again going to fund terrorism and Jew hatred. 

Aren't you just thrilled at the latest cash dump by your feckless administration into the lap of the Palestinian Authority?

The Retarded Battle Over the Word Retarded


Full disclosure: 

In my own humble opinion, I am not mentally retarded, although some of my critics have suggested otherwise in the past. 

I do, however, have a child with a genetic disorder and he is mentally retarded. That means that he has cognitive delays, and that he is unlike “regular” children. He has an issue with his genetic make-up that affects his physical and intellectual abilities. 

In the past, individuals with mental disabilities have been called mongoloids, morons, cretins, and imbeciles.  More recently, mentally retarded has been used. Now it is fashionable to say that these individuals have “developmental disabilities”, or that they have “global developmental delays”. I probably have used these terms myself over the years on various medical forms, school applications and whatnot. 

I actually have no problem myself with the term “mentally retarded”. 

I do cringe when “retard” is used as an insult, just as I would if I heard someone use “Jew” pejoratively, or as an adjective (“Jewing” someone down in price), or the unspeakable (except when black rap stars use it, of course) “N” word to describe black people. What I object to is the idea that someone’s reality, the way they were created (in my view, by G-d and in G-d’s image) is contemptible and an insult. I’m not talking about their opinions or politics-just the the state in which they entered this earth: disabled, or blind, black, brown, Asian or whatever. 

I object to all forms of censorship. 

I believe it’s wrong to ban thoughts and words. 

In a civilized society, undesirable speech and behaviour is self-policed. It’s a misguided policy to ban words and phrases. Attempting to “ban” the word retarded has no positive impact on the mentally retarded (‘developmentally delayed’) population. 

All it means is that people have to tip-toe even further around reality, and become ever more frightened of offending parents and relatives of those with disabilities. Aren’t there enough sensitivity minefields out there already? 

That’s why I think the “campaign” against “the r-word” is misguided and troubling and is bound to fail. 

Why? 

Because it lacks emotional honesty, and skirts the truth. 

The truth is that parents in particular, of mentally retarded, or physically disabled children are terrified that our children cause revulsion, and that people will abuse them, disdain them and that they will lead meaningless lives.  

We are terrified that because they are mentally retarded or because their bodies have entrapped them in the most horrendous ways, that they will not get the educational opportunities that they need and deserve to live up to their full potential-whatever that may be. 

We die a little inside every time you stare at our children, or make fun of them.

We do wish that our flesh and blood, our beautiful and often helpless children, were not burdened by their intellectual and physical handicaps. We sometimes, even often wish we could make it all go away, but we can’t. 

We have to live in a world that has progressed but still reviles disability for the most part. 

One need only read the (mostly “progressive” and leftist) discourse on Sarah Palin’s son Trig to get an idea of just how disgusted people are by the vulnerable and disabled.  

The most vile and insidious hatred of the disabled comes undoubtedly from the left of the political spectrum. The left loathes the disabled.  Why be in denial about such an obvious fact?

We love our kids and we know that many of you are disgusted by them and have no patience for them. 

But we live for them and would die for them. 

So, I think many parents, instead of just admitting this, direct their efforts fruitlessly into campaigns against words, when what they are really worried about is that their kids are being treated as pathetic human garbage.  

But nobody can be forced into loving our children, or treating them with dignity and compassion. That kind of grace and charity can only be innate; it can only come from within. Isn't external enforcement of “tolerance” of any group an oxymoron, by definition?

Banning any particular descriptive will not change societal attitudes.  People will still stare, feel pity and feel revulsion about the disabled no matter how we characterize their intellectual or physical states. 

This train of thought may make me unpopular in the disability parenting community, but I frankly couldn’t care less. 

Focusing on words instead of the reality (see above) is, frankly, retarded. 

The focus should always be on making our children’s lives as meaningful as possible, and helping them live as independently as possible and not trying by force, campaign or language massaging to make anyone love and respect them as we do.

J Street Lefty Jews: We Won't Necessarily Support Israel

Now can we question their (Jewish) patriotism?

Now?

"In an open letter published in the Boston Jewish Advocate, Paul Sassieni, treasurer of the JCRC, states that J Street’s Regional Director, Melanie Harris,  “reiterated proudly that J Street would not necessarily support Israel in a conflict, but would weigh the circumstances.”

Hey, great to know!

How Big Government is Killing California

The California dream is over.

Discuss.

Hmmmm

Having children in creative ways is complicated.

The lede:

"The largest sperm bank in Britain is under investigation from health officials over claims they used sperm from the wrong donor after a gay couple had two children from different racial backgrounds."

What happened to celebrating diversity-sexual and racial?

What should matter is that the children are healthy. All other obstacles can be overcome.

Fighting the battle against fresh, edible produce because it is contaminated with JOOOOOOTIES. 

Very brave.

That's fine. Go back to eating your disgusting soggy cucumber sandwiches and warm beer.

Steyn: Cuisines from My Step-Father

OMG: Dying here. (Of course the whole thing is great, read it all).

"Obama is correct that certain cultures believe a man takes on the powers of whatever he eats. In Liberia, where presidential contests are somewhat more primal than in this effete republic, Samuel Doe was captured by some of his eventual successor’s, ah, campaign staff, who cut off President Doe’s ears and then fed them to him. They then removed His Excellency’s genitals and wound up in a fight over who should get them, believing that the still not quite yet late president’s powers would be transferred to whoever got to chow down on the crown jewels. I’m not suggesting that President Obama has eaten a human penis, because, if he had, he’d almost certainly have boasted about it to the impressionable NPR ninnies who gobbled up his memoirs. But I am suggesting that Mitt Romney might like to consider it for next year’s Inauguration Day."

Hahahahahaha!

Actually, the title alone is wickedly eeeeeevil. Super funny.




People Are Mentally Ill

Just when you thought you had seen it all, apparently there are people who fake being disabled in order to compete in athletic competitions for disabled persons.

What kind of a pathetic trophy-hunter would do such a thing? Because the public has a "fascination" with disabled athletes? That's a pretty creative excuse.

I often have to explain to people who have perfectly healthy, able bodied children why actually it is not OK to park in the handicapped parking spot even "for a second", because some of us have handicapped children who can't walk, or can't walk more than 20 feet comfortably, or may have to unload a walker or a wheelchair. They are indignant! It's just "for a second". They couldn't care less that they should feel happy every moment of their life that they will never need to know the reason why people need those spaces.

This story is pretty outrageous. It shows that people are so hungry for praise that they would "compete", as healthy, able-bodied individuals against disabled ones just so they could be superior and "win".

This is a terrible reflection on our society.

An individual who is truly disabled that conquers adversity and excels in sport is an inspiring force.

People who fake disabilities for prizes or parking passes are complete and utter scum.

Easy Money! Ka-Ching!

The new "Twinkie Defense"?

Hard to believe that anyone could have won this much money by insisting that they thought Nutella was healthy, because advertising said so.

Quick easy score for these jerks, profiting from America's currently overzealous, litigious society.

The UK is Screwed

Culturcide.

It's a terrible thing.

Affirmative Action FAIL

This is the inevitable result of judging people not by their personality, character, accomplishments and spirit, but rather by their colour, ancestry or alleged ancestry.

The Great Caroline Glick: Post Zionism is Sooooo 1990s

The usual great stuff from Caroline Glick about the resurgence of Zionism in Israel and the settling of post-Zionist dreck to the dustbins of Israeli history.

Psalms Chapter 121 תְּהִלִּים

א  שִׁיר, לַמַּעֲלוֹת:
אֶשָּׂא עֵינַי, אֶל-הֶהָרִים--    מֵאַיִן, יָבֹא עֶזְרִי.
1 A Song of Ascents. {N}
I will lift up mine eyes unto the mountains: from whence shall my help come?
ב  עֶזְרִי, מֵעִם יְהוָה--    עֹשֵׂה, שָׁמַיִם וָאָרֶץ. 2 My help cometh from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
ג  אַל-יִתֵּן לַמּוֹט רַגְלֶךָ;    אַל-יָנוּם, שֹׁמְרֶךָ. 3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved; He that keepeth thee will not slumber.
ד  הִנֵּה לֹא-יָנוּם, וְלֹא יִישָׁן--    שׁוֹמֵר, יִשְׂרָאֵל. 4 Behold, He that keepeth Israel doth neither slumber nor sleep.
ה  יְהוָה שֹׁמְרֶךָ;    יְהוָה צִלְּךָ, עַל-יַד יְמִינֶךָ. 5 The LORD is thy keeper; the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
ו  יוֹמָם, הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ לֹא-יַכֶּכָּה;    וְיָרֵחַ בַּלָּיְלָה. 6 The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
ז  יְהוָה, יִשְׁמָרְךָ מִכָּל-רָע:    יִשְׁמֹר, אֶת-נַפְשֶׁךָ. 7 The LORD shall keep thee from all evil; He shall keep thy soul.
ח  יְהוָה, יִשְׁמָר-צֵאתְךָ וּבוֹאֶךָ--    מֵעַתָּה, וְעַד-עוֹלָם. 8 The LORD shall guard thy going out and thy coming in, from this time forth and for ever. {P}

Lone Wolf/Cultural Misunderstanding Alert

That "winning hearts and minds" strategy just doesn't seem to be working out so well in Afghanistan.

For some reason, a disproportional number of our Afghan "allies" have not gotten the memo that we are allies.

The real disgrace here is that there is a mealy-mouthed euphamism for these murders: "green on blue". The Afghanis just "turn their weapons" the wrong way. No biggie.

Gen. John Allen, the commander of the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force, referred last month to "an erosion of trust that has emerged from this," .

I would say that murdering your fellow soldier is a relatively significant "erosion of trust".

More "explanation":

"Disputes can arise from cultural misunderstanding, religious and ideological friction or combat stress, said Brig. Gen. Stephen Townsend, director of the Pakistan-Afghanistan Coordination Cell in the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff office."

Townsend said cultural training has been vital for U.S. soldiers, and now the Afghan authorities are considering the same to provide a better understanding of Americans.

We're screwed.
