Executive Order #86 proclaims a state of emergency in Wisconsin, directs state agencies to continue assisting the state response and calls to state active duty additional elements of the Wisconsin National Guard to support first responders and protect critical infrastructure and cultural institutions, a news release from the governor's office said.
  • THIS is the Most Effective Anti-Democrat Internet Meme For Millennials Against Hillary Clinton!

    THIS is what I believe to be the most effective internet meme to illustrate what millennials and others are REALLY SUPPORTING if they vote for Hillary Clinton: This meme, presented in a way that Low-Info Millennials raised with a lifetime of media influence should understand, tells them that they are being encouraged to vote for EVIL, because the good guys, the people who actually are trying to protect THEM, might win. If nothing else, it is a good counter to the INSANE amount of paid Democrat Propaganda being shoved down their throats right now.

    A while back I observed the contrast between the modern leftists’ self-image and the actual political reality of the policies they support. [T]he media and Hollywood types have always convinced themselves, as George Lucas did, that their villains were metaphors for George W. Bush or a cautionary tale about the evils of the right. But here we are, the Old Republic is being dissolved, and it’s their hero who is doing it. They find themselves on the side of the Empire. In effect, they have become the Party of Palpatine. You never thought that a fictional dictator, such as the...

    Has Anyone besides me noticed the eerie similarity between George Soros and Emperor Palpatine, Dark Lord of the Sith, or as he is known to the rest of the practitioners of the dark side of the force, Darth Sidious. Darth Sidious During the Star Wars Clone Wars three film prequel; we witness the rise of Palpatine from a Senator who manipulates public opinion and is made Supreme Chancellor of the Galactic Republic. The Dark Side then uses a manufactured crisis, in this case, the clone wars, created with the aid of earlier apprentices Darth Maul and Darth Tyranus, in conjuction...

    The Sith Order ^ | July 26, 2005 | Mad Ivan
    I'm pleased to announced that I've just finished writing the first draft of my new Sci Fi novel, "I, Palpatine". This novel covers the biography of Emperor Palpatine from Star Wars (for those who haven't seen the film, he's the really nasty piece of work). One can either read the story in pieces on SithOrder.Com or get a more complete manuscript (with some corrections) by mailing me privately; I am doing this to keep track of to whom I send these manuscripts. Feedback from the most intelligent and discerning audience on the web is most appreciated.

    One by one, the landmark epics of the 1970s are tying up the loose ends -- alas, not always in ways that quite support the great mythic power invested in them. In ''Revenge of the Sith,'' George Lucas brings the ''Star Wars'' cycle to a close by revealing how Anakin Skywalker went over to the Dark Side, transformed himself into Darth Vader, destroyed the Republic and consigned it to the mad imperial ambitions of Chancellor Palpatine -- all because, er, he was a bit worried his beloved Senator Padme might die in childbirth. If Senator Padme had been like Senator...

    Now that the new Star Wars film has been released, there has been a flurry of articles drawing facile comparisons between the Emperor (formerly Chancellor) Palpatine and President Bush, and between the Sith and the Republicans. The preening liberal elite, which has hitherto regarded science fiction as the province of lesser mortals, has seized upon statements such as Darth Vader’s “If you’re not with me, you’re my enemy” and gasped with orgiastic delight upon recognising George Lucas as a kindred soul.This liberal interpretation of what is in the final analysis, a fantasy film, has not confined itself merely to an...

    Star Wars - The Sith Order ^ | May 21, 2005 | Darth Groznii
    It is arguable that the most famous line in “Revenge of the Sith” comes from Padme Amidala. When Palpatine announces to a rapturous Senate that the Republic is to be re-organised as the first Galactic Empire, she says: "So this is how liberty dies. With thunderous applause”. We are supposed to infer from this statement that freedom has been traded for security, and democracy traded for a dictatorship. As such, it is supposed to be a dark day, a tragedy, one which will take 20 years and the original three films to remedy. However the question that no one asks...

    For connoisseurs of surrealism on the American right, it's hard to beat an exchange that appeared about a decade ago in the Heritage Foundation magazine Policy Review. It started when two associates of the Rev. Jerry Falwell wrote an article which criticized Christian Reconstructionism, the influential movement led by theologian Rousas John (R.J.) Rushdoony, for advocating positions that even they as committed fundamentalists found "scary." Among Reconstructionism's highlights, the article cited support for laws "mandating the death penalty for homosexuals and drunkards." The Rev. Rushdoony fired off a letter to the editor complaining that the article had got his followers'...
