The Jeffersonian Democrat: I Am One

 

NC: The last Jeffersonian-Democrat

A Review of A Plague on Both Your Houses, by Robert W. Whitaker. New York: Robert B. Luce, 1976, 208 pages.

Hardly anyone has commented upon the seeming disappearance from American life of the Jeffersonian democrat. The Jeffersonian democrat was a hardy American breed, perhaps the only political type original to this continent. Outnumbering all other species between 1800 and 1861, he was a numerous beast long afterward and was spotted quite often even as late as the 1940’s. Since then he seems to have disappeared, if not into extinction at least out of the offi­cial catalogs. The disappearance is not surprising—Jeffersonian democrats, since their first discovery in colonial America, have never enjoyed academic or media respectability.

Mr. Whitaker is a keen observer. He has spotted them in the interior where they are alive and well (although restless) and number in the millions. He calls them populists. (“Jeffersonian democrat” is the reviewer’s gratuitous amendment of the author’s terminology, for reasons that will become apparent.) Mr. Whitaker speaks not only as a man of science, demonstrating the existence of the phe­nomenon. He is also an angry and eloquent advocate in behalf of an endangered species with which he is proud to identify himself.

This is the shocking moment a cop tried to shoot a family's dog and accidentally killed a mother-of-three in front of her young son

Via avordvet

You use your mace idiot. That's what my Cape Carteret cop did when attacked on my property by a neighborhood dog.  You get nothing but contempt and scorn from me.  Should not have been let back on the force.

This is the shocking moment a cop tried to shoot a family's dog and accidentally killed a mother-of-three in front of her young son.

Burlington Police Officer Jesse Hill was responding to a domestic dispute on January 6, 2015, when he said he slipped and shot dead Autumn Steele, while aiming for her pet.

Body cam footage shows the cop arriving at the Burlington home, in Iowa, where Steele, 34, was in a heated row with her husband Gabriel.

VA Governor Terry McAuliffe’s ‘Red Herring’

 

GRNC

In response to Virginia Attorney General Mark Herring’s statement that Virginia will no longer honor North Carolina concealed handgun permits, Grass Roots North Carolina president Paul Valone made the following remarks:

“Ironically, earlier this year a liberal TV station in Raleigh raised the question of whether Virginia permit requirements are sufficiently stringent to allow Virginia permits to be used here. Now, liberal Democrats in Virginia are claiming our permit standards aren’t sufficiently stringent. What both have in common is that they are solutions in search of a problem, and are just thinly veiled political schemes to restrict the ability of lawful citizens to protect themselves and their families.

“In truth, regardless of issuing standards, concealed handgun permit-holders are overwhelmingly responsible, meaning they rarely commit crimes. I defy anybody to come up with credible statistics indicating that different issuing requirements correlate with the likelihood of permit-holders committing crimes, because those statistics don’t exist.

“In fact, we now have seven states with laws eliminating the need for concealed carry permits by lawful citizens altogether – that’s right, in Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Kansas, Maine, Vermont and Wyoming you don’t need a permit to carry a firearm for lawful self-protection. Yet even in the states where no permit is required, nobody has demonstrated a problem with lawful citizens suddenly running amok.

“By disqualifying fully twenty-five of thirty states from reciprocity, all Democrat Governor Terry McAuliffe and Democrat Attorney General Mark Herring (maybe we should call him “Red Herring?”) have done is to trump up an “audit” to restrict, as much as possible, the ability of citizens to protect themselves.

“Given that radical Islamic terrorists have vowed to hit “soft targets” in the United States, what Virginia and other states should be doing is to loosen restrictions on concealed carry, not tighten them. In fact, Japanese Admiral Yamamoto is credited with saying, “You cannot invade the mainland United States. There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass.” We are asking the 11 million concealed handgun permit-holders across the country to do exactly that, and to help them, we have set up a website at www.EveryBladeOfGrass.org.”

U.S. mayor calls Obama 'Muslim,' stands firm as critics rage

Via Billy "If it looks like a Muslim, acts like a Muslim, defends & supports Muslims then it’s a Muslim!"

 

A Wisconsin mayor is fending off fierce backlash after he called President Obama a Muslim who has “destroyed the fabric of democracy.”

Superior, Wisconsin, Mayor Bruce Hagen has refused to apologize for Facebook posts criticizing Obama and the first lady.

“Do we still have freedom of speech in the country? Sometimes I kind of forget,” Hagen told Fox 21 Monday night. City councilors Graham Garfield, Warren Bender, Esther Dalbec, Dan Olson and Denise McDonald demanded he apologize or resign.

Rand Paul Introduces Bill To Kill Obama Gun Control

Gunboards

Would render executive action “advisory only”

Paul’s legislation, named the Separation of Powers Restoration and Second Amendment Protection Act, would render any action on gun legislation by the president which circumvents Congress as “advisory only” in nature.

Paul’s bill would apply to “any execution action on gun control that either infringes upon congressional authority or potentially violates the Second Amendment.”

The bill then mandates that once an executive action has been classified as “advisory only,” it would require Congress to pass it in order for it to take effect.

The bill also outlines that it is within their power for a “state official, member of Congress or person affected by an executive action on gun control to launch a civil lawsuit.”

The legislation will be fast-tracked through the Senate and is expected to be made a priority after the Christmas recess.

In a statement released Monday, Paul said, “In the United States, we do not have a king, but we do have a Constitution. We also have the Second Amendment, and I will fight tooth and nail to protect it.”

Liberation theology: Tool of the Kremlin

Via Billy

In 2007, Lt. Gen. Ion Mihai Pacepa, the highest-ranking Soviet bloc official ever to defect to the West, told the world that Soviet bloc intelligence agencies had cultivated and developed the pro-Communist union of Marxism and Christianity that the world came to know as liberation theology. Pacepa documented that disinformation operation six years later, in the book “Disinformation: Former Spy Chief Reveals Secret Strategies for Undermining Freedom, Attacking Religion, and Promoting Terrorism,” which I was privileged to co-author with him.

The KGB liked the term “liberation.” In 1964, it formed the National Liberation Army of Bolivia (with help from the Communist icon Che Guevara). That same year, the first Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) Council, consisting of representatives handpicked by the KGB, approved the Palestinian National Charter. In 1965, the KGB created the National Liberation Army of Colombia (with help from Fidel Castro). Later, the KGB would create the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, which carried out numerous bombing attacks, and the Secret Army for Liberation of Armenia, which organized numerous bombing attacks against U.S. airline offices in Western Europe.

False Notes From Wynton Marsalis Lead To A Divided City

Via Billy

The City Council of New Orleans, at the behest of Mayor Mitch Landrieu (who in turn was acting as the urging of jazz great Wynton Marsalis) has rewritten history, vilified the 70 million-plus Americans who are descended from the Confederate Army, and ruptured the Big Easy in ways that may take years to repair.

At a time when national polls show national racial tensions at a level unseen for decades, Mayor Landrieu and the Council have ignited an unnecessary and terribly divisive civic battle over some venerable Confederate statuary, especially the monument to Robert E. Lee in Lee Circle. The sudden opprobrium heaped upon Lee and the Confederacy by Landrieu, Marsalis and the full-throated chorus of the New Orleans Times-Picayune newspaper has not been seen since the War itself, now 150 years into our past.

Why Palestinians Love Baby-Killers

Via David "One should speak only good about the dead.  OK.  He's dead.  Good."

 

• Samir Kuntar murdered four Israelis. One of his victims was a four-year-old girl, Einat Haran. Kuntar smashed her skull. Kuntar was killed this week in Syria while helping President Bashar Assad commit war crimes against his own citizens.
  
• Senior Palestinian official Sultan Abu Al-Einein evidently believes that murdering Jews is not a "despicable crime," but killing an arch-terrorist such as Kuntar is a "despicable crime."
  
• When the Western-backed Palestinian Authority openly endorses terrorists and names streets, squares and schools after them, Palestinian leaders are sending a message to their people that murdering Jews is a noble and dignified act. This show of solidarity with a baby-killer is the direct result of ongoing incitement against Israel and Jews in mosques, the press and social media in the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
  
• In this sick, twisted society that the Europeans have bought and paid for, anyone who murders Jews is considered a role model. Anyone who supports peace with Israel is denounced as a "traitor."

FOX News Ignores GOP Consultant Death Threats Against Donald Trump

Via Billy

 

GOP consultant Rick Wilson went on MSNBC and said the Republican establishment has to “put a bullet” in Trump’s head.

Once upon a time, FOX News was known as the so-called “conservative” news channel.
 
FOX was fair and balanced on reporting abuse hurled at GOP politicians and candidates.

Not any more. FOX News Channel HATES Donald Trump. The New York businessman and GOP frontrunner is constantly attacked on the FOX News Channel. It’s as if bashing Donald Trump is now part of their mission.

This week two different Republican consultants hurled death threats at Donald Trump.
