Black XXVII: "Dubyuh's Got Faith!!"

Now Sam, Mia never implied any such thing. Why do you deliberately choose to distort her words and the intent of those words?

I don't know if that was her initial intention, but even after I pointed out the implication to her, she refused to retract or change what she said. So if she's saying that she wants to kill these "left-coast liberals," and she's aware of what that implies, then she has to take responsibility for that.

Is there any chance you could direct me to the material, investigation, testimony etc. that "put to rest" any suspicion of Sen. Byrd's involvement in domestic terrorism while a member of the KKK?

I'll have to find the book for you -- it was pre-Internet, when all this same stuff came up during the late 60's and '70's, I believe. As far as I know, they were just whispers at the time, and never had enough weight to necessitate a material trial of any kind.

So are you implying you have some evidence that the Senator was involve in domestic terrorism?

Five years in October...though we did have a MFL II in 2000.

It would be nice to have another...but with the travel, the loss of my father, the terminal condition of my brother's cancer, etc...for me it will be a while before I can do so.

We have my mother up here with us...she's 79 and a definite WW II era citizen and huge supporter of Ronald Reagan...as was I. So this trip will be important tme with her in her later years for me and for my son.

I am not implying any thing. I am asking for information that would back up your statement.

Gotta go now, but I've got an interesting read for you from today's L.A. Times WRT how soft Bush is on terrorism:

The State Department is scrambling to revise its annual report on global terrorism to acknowledge that it understated the number of deadly attacks in 2003, amid charges that the document is inaccurate and was politically manipulated by the Bush administration.

link

What's interesting here is that Powell actually agreed to reissue the report.

"It's real simple: Tax increases increase federal revenue, and tax decreases decrease federal revenue."

It was proven after both JFK's and RWR's tax cuts that decreasing the Tax RATES spurs the economy and can actually INCREASE federal revenues (as your graph indicates). Personally, I'd like to cut tax rates to the point where we actually DECREASE federal revenues, but I've yet to win that argument.

Macroeconomics 101, dude...you shouldda taken it as an elective and you could be on the Right side of this argument...MUD

"...you have some evidence that the Senator was involve in domestic terrorism?"

Well, if you accept that the KKK is a domestic terrorist organization, and we already know "Sheetz" Byrd was a leader of that organization...well, some would call that evidence of involvement in domestic terrorism.

Of course, if the KKK's actions are acceptable to you and KKKers are just peachy-keen in yer Party leadership...well, that sounds a little hypocritical, doesn't it?!

MUD

"...they were just whispers at the time, and never had enough weight to necessitate a material trial of any kind."

Of course not...DemonRATS are NEVER held accountable fer their misdeeds...MUD

"...she's 79 and a definite WW II era citizen and huge supporter of Ronald Reagan...as was I. So this trip will be important tme with her in her later years for me and for my son."

That sounds wonderful...something fer the scrapbooks!! Have a great time as we celebrate Reagan's life instead of mourning his passing. For most of us, Reagan passed out of our lives almost 10 years ago...this week is all about us rejoicing in the fact that we were blessed with his leadership during a very dire time in our nation's history!!

FReegards...MUD

Sounds like the report is being reissued to include post-11/11 attacks, as it should be. However, THIS...

"...the State Department appeared to be using outdated criteria to determine what constituted a terrorist incident. For instance, the many deadly attacks on coalition forces in Iraq were not included in the "Patterns" report because they did not meet the State Department's long-standing criteria of targeting civilians or soldiers not on duty."

...is ridiculous. We're in a war in Iraq, and there's no way you can include wartime activities as acts of terror. Waxman's overreaching here, as the facts clearly prove that our War On Terrorism is succeeding with flying colors!!

I don't know if that was her initial intention,

Well Sam, I do know so you can cease with the dramatics and end this little charade.

but even after I pointed out the implication to her, she refused to retract or change what she said.

In order to point something out it has to exist in the first place. Mia's answered you and explained how she meant it, I believe she used the word metaphorically.

So if she's saying that she wants to kill these "left-coast liberals," and she's aware of what that implies, then she has to take responsibility for that.

So Sam, I see that you insist on the age-old ruse of repeating a lie until it's accepted as truth. Not coincidently, a favorite tactic used throughout history amongst the world's tyrants, dictators, and other assorted Leftists.

Incidently Sam, I seem to have been raised in a situation opposite of yours. My family were all Democrats. Matter of fact, my father was named after Eugene Debs, his brother's given first & middle name was 'Carl Marx'.
(I always like to joke that my grandfather might have thought it wouldn't stand out as much if he used a C instead of a K for the first name).
There was light at the end of the tunnel though, my mom, never having voted for a Republican throughout her life, finally did just that at age 65 in 1979 when she happily gave a wonderful guy named Ron her confidence.

Reagan was the Great Liberator...MUD

RR not only liberated people from Communist tyranny. He freed the spirits of freedom loving folks everywhere.

"Marchin' On DeeCee!!"
(To be sung to Bruce Springsteen's "Racin' in the Streets")

I got a worn-out ol' computer with a 486...
Fax machine and patriotism galore.
Left's threatnin' our Rights with all their Guv'ment rot...
Clinton's a Communist Chi-Com Whore!!
Me and my FReeper buddies gonna fight to the last...
Gonna kick Ol' Slick right outta town.
'Cuz Bill took Chinese money, helped our Nukes get snatched...
We'll Re-Impeach, then we'll CONVICT that clown!!

Tonight, we fight Slick's White House Blight...
We're gonna knock that Traitor out with our FReeps!!
Autumn's here and the time is right...
For marchin' on DeeCee!!

We decry corruption when we see'it...
We expose Tyranny by the State.
When Limbaugh shuts down, we hit JimRob's Forum...
We're all funded by Dick Mellon-Scaife!! (LOL!!)
Now some folks, they just give up caring...
And start givin' up their Liberties, piece by piece.
Some folks come home from work and wash up...
Then go hit the Web to FReep!!

Tonight, we fight Left's Treas'nous Blight...
We're gonna stomp those Lib'rals beneath our feet!
Autumn's here and the Time's Just Right...
We're gonna bring down DemElites!!

(Keyboard/Percussion)

We met him and his "schtick" ten years ago...
Sixties' Lib'ral with "an eye for the babes."
With far-Left Media at his back....
Slick told the World he's here to stay!
But now there's Treason, Rape, and Chinese spies...
So many lies...Oh no, it just ain't Right!!
This Country's drones, they need a spark...
Need more Mudboys singin', "It's worth the fight!!"

Slick spunked on the floor of our great White House...
But folks said, "Wait, 'cuz Wall Street's soarin'!"
They stare off all numb, afraid to fight...
Trustin' LIES of folks who slaughter the Unborn.
For all you mind-numbed robots and Network "hotshots"...
Ignorin' crimes to beat the Band...
This time, the FReepers and me, we're gonna take back DeeCee...
And purge this filth from our Land!!

Tonight, we fight the righteous fight...
Out of our way, RINOS, you best keep!
'Cuz Autumn's here and the mood's just Right...
For FReepin' on DeeCee!!

BTW...Just over two centuries ago, our forefathers risked Life, Liberty, and their personal fortunes to stand up against an over-bearing and tyrannical government. Because of their courage and determination, the original Thirteen Colonies became what we now know as the United States of America. Therefore, our honored forebears were all-too-aware of the propensity for central governing bureaucracies to grow out of control. The writers of our Constitution, in an attempt to protect the citizenry from this eventuality, chose to enumerate our individual liberties in the Bill of Rights. The First Amendment includes "the right to free speech," which not only protected the individual's right to speak out against the government, but also enabled the Fourth Branch of Government--the Free Press, if you will--to flourish. For over two hundred years, this watchdog Media has turned over many rocks, exposing the dark under-belly of American politics...UNTIL NOW!!

Presently occupying--at taxpayer expense, I might add--some high-dollar office space in Harlem, is a small petty man, heading a vast criminal conspiracy. Bill Clinton most certainly committed multiple felonies and obstructed justice in the Monica Lewinsky matter. A morally-weak, spineless Senate was not up to the task of removing him from office, making a mockery of our Legal System as the #1 Law Enforcement Officer in the land is master-minding a relentless attack on The Rule of Law; however, it is clear that Clinton is "Guilty" (beyond all reasonable doubts) of multiple felonies and SHALL BE BROUGHT TO JUSTICE!!

Since escaping Justice in the Impeachment Trial, Mr. Clinton has been credibly accused of Violent RAPE by one nice woman, Ms. Juanita Broaddrick. Either this is a major slander against the good name of an innocent man...or else Bill Clinton raped and violently bit the lip of this young woman. If it wasn't true, don't you think the Rapist-in-Chief would have come out a bit more strongly in his own defense?!

Now, we come to find out the President of the United States is most likely guilty of TREASON, for accepting illegal foreign campaign donations from the Communist Chinese in exchange for basically offering a free run of our Nuclear Weapons Labs and authorizing high technology transfers through key Democratic National Committee contributors, Hughes and Loral. Corruption never ran as deep and as wide as is the case with this Administration!!

Yes, when it comes to brazenly flouting the laws and mores of this Country, this Clinton Cadre of Corrupt Communist Co-Conspirators is charting a new course. Yet, the blatantly Left-Wing Media can't find the time or the manpower to investigate/report the Truth about Slick Willie's Felonious Behavior, the "dark side" of the man who could violently rape a supportor and suggest as he left, "Better put some ice on that, baby!" No, our "Free Press" cannot even find it in themselves to report on the TREASON committed by Bill Clinton, in which each and every man, woman, and child in America is now significantly more at risk than 8 years ago, simply because Bill Clinton needed some illegal contributions to retain his tenuous hold on the reins of Power.

We've seen how ridiculous the Yugoslavian State-controlled Media Propoganda Machine looked in the recent conflagration in Kosovo...who amongst the Media Poltroons can explain to me the difference between Clinton's Media and Slobo's. Fortunately, the Network drones are becoming irrelevant!

If you want to help in reclaiming our Country from the Evil that occupies the Oval Office, here's the gameplan...

RE-IMPEACH. CONVICT. DETHRONE.
DE-PENSION. DISBAR. DE-LEGITIMIZE.
INDICT. CONVICT. IMPRISON. DISCARD KEY.
(COURT-MARTIAL FOR TREASON AND APPROPRIATE PUNISHMENT OPTIONAL)

Quite Sincerely,

Later in the evening, as you lie awake in bed...
With the echoes of the Prez'dent's lies...ringin' in your head...
How you try, but you just can't forget...
All your forefathers who bled!

They bled for you...we didn't want a King...
We've got laws...put Slick in a Cage!!
Left don't know...how to feel our pain!
When we vote, they'll know the rage!!

RR related once of a time when he was due to make a campaign appearance out in the country. He discovered that the organizers had to devise a makeshift podium and stage for him to speak. They did, using some wide wood boards atop two layers of sacks of cow manure.
Reagan quipped that it marked the first time he'd ever given a Republican speech on a Democratic platform.

The Greatness of Ronald Reagan:
A Personal Remembrance

Lolling around the Oval Office after a presentation documenting how the Administration was back-filling bureaucratic slots we had cut during the first few years, someone was waiting patiently behind, just out of sight. Bragging to whomever would listen about the president's support for my plan to stop the backsliding, I figured he could wait. When I finally turned around, there was the President of the United States of America patiently waiting his turn to talk to the pompous personnel director!

Sensing my discomfort, he immediately put me at ease by saying: "Keep it up, fighting those bureaucrats, and don't give up." Smiling gently, he turned and went back to work. Here was the real Ronald Reagan--kind, considerate, polite, decent and letting you know that he appreciated the job you were doing. But he was also focused like a laser, keeping to the job at hand, here trying to keep his promise to cut government bureaucracy.

I saw him up close when he fired the air traffic controllers. As civil service head, I had expressed my displeasure with the concessions that the Federal Aeronautics Administration had made to the union, proposing pay and benefits well beyond the already higher rates controllers received compared to the remainder of the workforce. Since the union was gaining advantages through the threat of disruption and strike, the inevitable result would be more of the same throughout the government. Luckily, the union was greedy and rejected the offer. Then they crossed the line and the president made history. At the subsequent White House meeting, the president was insistent. The controllers had violated their no-strike oath as federal employees and they had to go. That was that.

The FAA head opposed the severity of the penalty and was dropped from the car on the way to the news conference by Transportation Secretary Drew Lewis, who had initially supported the concessions but said it was now time to support the boss. All three of us wanted to eventually hire back the controllers (on our terms)--the penny-pinching personnel director because of the time it would take to train the thousands of replacements needed. Mr. Reagan, looking more broadly than we, would have none of it. As Secretary of State George Schultz wrote later, world leaders immediately became impressed with a president who would be so decisive. Chris Matthews reported that it was this one act that led Speaker Tip O'Neill to respect Reagan as a political leader who had to be dealt with. Business leaders told me for years that President Reagan's actions freezing employment, denying unnecessary pay and benefits increases, and--especially--firing the controllers steeled their resolve to slim their own bloated bureaucracies.

In early 1986, while I was advising Senate Majority Leader, Bob Dole, he took a piece of paper from his desk and lofted it over to me. "Look what your friend is trying to get me to do." "Do not forget about flattening the tax rates," it read, plus a few flattering words, and was signed Ronald Reagan. "He is the only person in Washington who thinks this has a ghost of a chance," said the Senator. "What does he expect me to do?" In less than a year, President Reagan signed a tax bill cutting the number of rates in half and reducing them to only 15, 28 and 33 percent, the lowest then or since. The top marginal rate went from seventy percent to one-third, the first substantial cut in a progressive tax system by a democratic government in recorded history. However alone, Ronald Reagan never gave up.

Everyone remembers his original supply side tax cut of 23 percent, a size most advisors thought was too large. Without it, total taxes would have been 23.8 percent of GNP, rather than the 19.3 percent he obtained. Fifty-five countries followed with tax reductions of their own. Even his admirers think President Reagan did not cut government spending. That is because he insisted on increasing defense. On non-defense outlays, spending did decline from 17.9 percent of GNP in fiscal 1982 to 16.4 percent in fiscal 1989. Soon after, his successor increased it to 19.8 percent so people, especially Republicans, tend to forget. He was even flexible enough to support two items originally opposed by his assistants--Dole's proposal to index tax rates for inflation and Sen. Phil Gramm's spending limits--that also helped promote limited government during his years in office.

Oh, yes, those higher defense expenditures and the technology and readiness they purchased convinced the Soviet leaders they could not compete. Then, there was no Soviet Union and he had defeated the "evil empire" too.

We miss him and will not soon see another of his stature.

Donald Devine, Editor and Director of the U.S. Office of Personnel Management during Ronald Reagan's first term.

"THUNDER ROAD"

The screen door slams
Mary's dress waves
Like a vision she dances across the porch
As the radio plays
Roy Orbison singing for the lonely
Hey that's me and I want you only
Don't turn me home again
I just can't face myself alone again
Don't run back inside
darling you know just what I'm here for
So you're scared and you're thinking
That maybe we ain't that young anymore
Show a little faith, there's magic in the night
You ain't a beauty, but hey you're alright
Oh and that's alright with me

You can hide `neath your covers
And study your pain
Make crosses from your lovers
Throw roses in the rain
Waste your summer praying in vain
For a savior to rise from these streets
Well now I'm no hero
That's understood
All the redemption I can offer, girl
Is beneath this dirty hood
With a chance to make it good somehow
Hey what else can we do now
Except roll down the window
And let the wind blow back your hair
Well the night's busting open
These two lanes will take us anywhere
We got one last chance to make it real
To trade in these wings on some wheels
Climb in back
Heaven's waiting on down the tracks
Oh oh come take my hand
Riding out tonight to case the promised land
Oh oh Thunder Road, oh Thunder Road
oh Thunder Road
Lying out there like a killer in the sun
Hey I know it's late we can make it if we run
Oh Thunder Road, sit tight take hold
Thunder Road

Well I got this guitar
And I learned how to make it talk
And my car's out back
If you're ready to take that long walk
>From your front porch to my front seat
The door's open but the ride it ain't free
And I know you're lonely
For words that I ain't spoken
But tonight we'll be free
All the promises'll be broken
There were ghosts in the eyes
Of all the boys you sent away
They haunt this dusty beach road
In the skeleton frames of burned out Chevrolets

They scream your name at night in the street
Your graduation gown lies in rags at their feet
And in the lonely cool before dawn
You hear their engines roaring on
But when you get to the porch they're gone
On the wind, so Mary climb in
It's a town full of losers
And I'm pulling out of here to win.
