Paul Harvey: 'If I Were The Devil'

Via The Battle of Atlanta



Snopes

"If I Were the Devil" was an essay written and popularized by radio commentator and syndicated columnist Paul Harvey, who featured it in both media many times over the course of his long career, periodically updating it to incorporate current trends. The oldest version of this piece we've found so far appeared in his newspaper column in 1964

Contrasting that 1964 version of the essay with Paul Harvey's 1996 newspaper version shows that, although the concept and structure of the essay remained the same across the decades, its content evolved quite a bit over the years

Nope, it's not a parody.

Throughout the history of the world, there have been many religions and movements that have been based around the fact that the world was once perfect before people spoiled it. Followers of these religions believe that mankind is evil and the source of corruption in society, and that society would be better if corrupted man were killed or removed from society. This hatred for people leads these groups and religions to push for policies that limit people and attack what it means to be person.

Sheriff Joe: 'Tons' more shocking Obama info

“America’s toughest sheriff” says there is “tons” more potentially shocking information on Barack Obama in connection with his probe into the president’s eligibility, and he calls the media’s suppression of his findings of a likely forged presidential birth certificate and Selective Service Card “probably the biggest censorship blackout in the history of the United States.”

“I’m not going after the president to keep him off a ballot or anything else, but that could happen,” Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio said. “I’m going at it strictly as a law-enforcement guy investigating a possible forgery and fraud. I’m sticking with that, but I’ll tell you one thing. We got tons of other information that could be very shocking, too, but I’m sticking now with just the [forgery] investigation and possible criminal violations.”

FreedomWorks: Get behind Romney

Never would have thought in a million years when I went to the 2009 March on DC that they would throw in the towel.

The organization that ignited the tea party as a national mass movement gave Mitt Romney perhaps his biggest victory yet, deciding to drop its opposition to his candidacy, a top executive in the group told The Washington Times.

FreedomWorks, which organized the Sept. 12, 2009, mass demonstration on the Mall, says that while it will not give an explicit endorsement, the time has come for Republicans to unite around the former Massachusetts governor and focus on defeating President Obama.

“It is a statistical fact that the numbers favor Mitt Romney,” FreedomWorks Vice President Russ Walker told The Times on Tuesday. “We are dedicated to defeating Obama and electing a conservative Senate that will help Romney repeal Obamacare and address the nation’s economic and spending challenges.”

A racial war has broke out in South Africa between black and coloured people

grabouw 1

The mob was baying for blood. Not just any blood – black blood. And they found it. A young man was caught in the wrong place at the wrong time on Monday as pitched street battles raged in the Grabouw suburb of Pineview.

A rumour spread like wildfire: “the blacks” wanted to burn down the nearby high school, attended mainly by coloured pupils from the community. And the mob was determined to defend this school by force.

The violence escalated after three classrooms were vandalised at Groenberg Secondary, where protesters tried to set alight a textbook storeroom. Coloured residents blamed their black neighbours.

This, overcrowding at a predominantly black school and a coming by-election have all been cited by residents as reasons for the situation coming to a head on Monday.

Armed with golf clubs, sticks, planks, hockey sticks, steel rods – anything – coloured residents roamed the streets hunting for prey.

Then this young man was spotted – not part of any group of protesters, but black.

Marines down on Obama

Via Nail Your Colours To The Mast

The Marine Corps Times previews its cover story about anti-Obama Marines at their 'Battle Rattle' blog.

According to the article, of the 792 active-duty troops and mobilized reservists who responded to this year's Military Times Poll, 44 percent said that they disapprove of the way Obama is handling his job as commander in chief.

The article cites hot button issues such as repeal of "don't ask, don't tell," relaxing restrictions of women in combat, and steep budget cuts, behind the disapproval numbers.
