			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The last book of the famous Lord of the Rings Trilogy is ripe for some updating, so here&#8217;s a proposal to that end. The Dark Lord Sauron is a perfect evil villain, of course. He&#8217;s shadowy, unseen, hard to grasp, but pervasive and the personification of oppression and evil. But his name needs to be updated and so does his downfall in order to reflect today&#8217;s sensibilities.</p>
<p>So, instead of being named Lord Sauron, his new name will be the Dark Lord ACORN. See, the evil still works but it&#8217;s updated, ya know?</p>
<p>Now we all know that in the original final book of LOTR, The Return of the King, the Dark Lord and his forces are beaten by the combined forces of the good people of Middle Earth. Evil is vanquished and all live forever after in love and harmony. The age of magic does pass, but a new idyllic age of man dawns.</p>
<p>Well, poppycock says I. We all know that evil isn&#8217;t so easily vanquished, don&#8217;t we? We need to rewrite the demise of the evil Lord ACORN to one more befitting of reality.</p>
<p>So, as Breitbart the White gathers his forces to wage mortal battle with the Dark Lord ACORN we see a whole new cast of characters sallying forth to defeat evil on the earth.</p>
<p>We’ll find the happy-go-lucky Jurno O&#8217;Keefe who carries with him the magical golden camcorder. With the glare of its unblinking eye that sees all it is this magical device that serves as the one weapon that can kill the evil Lord ACORN.</p>
<p>Also we’ll meet the plucky Hana that serves as Journo O&#8217;Keefe&#8217;s right hand girl, always ready to put on her cloak of faux prostituteability so that she might slip by the lumbering, doltish gatekeeper trolls that Lord ACORN employs in his many dungeons and lairs.</p>
<p>We find good King Roger of Ailes the brave ranger that fearlessly confronts evil Lord ACORN and leads his band of the FOX against them. </p>
<p>This band of hardy fighters for all good peoples everywhere have taken to the field of battle to face down the dark forces of Lord ACORN. Breitbart the White brings along his people of the outlying lands of BLOG to his side and the dark forces are laid low in a great battle played out before the eyes of the world.</p>
<p>The evil Dark Lord ACORN knows that Journo O&#8217;Keefe is focusing his magical golden camcorder on him and he feels the heat and light of the eyes of the people upon him. His mighty powers are shrinking as his once powerful allies in the land of Congress are fleeing from the field in abject terror of Breitbart the White, his people of BLOG, and their allies from the land of voters who begin to gain the upper hand.</p>
<p>The Dark Lord ACORN knows that he&#8217;s about to lose everything. His minions are being <a href="http://www.opinionjournal.com/editorial/feature.html?id=110009189">convicted of voter fraud</a> right and left, he&#8217;s <a href="http://www.dispatchpolitics.com/live/content/local_news/stories/2010/03/11/copy/acorn-is-out-of-ohios-elections.html?adsec=politics&#038;sid=101">lost his outpost in the Ohio Valley</a>, his <a href="http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2009/09/17/congress-votes-strip-acorn-federal-funding/">finances are drying up</a>. The evil Lord ACORN knows that he must do something too, maybe fall back, regroup, recharge his fading power. Something must be done before the Dark Lord is defeated utterly.</p>
<p>Then the evil Lord ACORN realizes what he must do. If he stays on the field of battle much longer he will be destroyed, he knows this. So, in a last ditch effort he crafts a spell of invisibility for himself and his remaining forces.</p>
<p>The Evil Lord ACORN is now simply going to be known as &#8220;Californians for Community Empowerment,&#8221; or &#8220;New York Communities for Change.&#8221; No more is he Lord ACORN. Perhaps no one will notice, he thinks. If he just changes his name but keeps all his evil troll warriors and monstrous war dogs in place, perhaps no one will notice that Lord ACORN still exists but just changed his name? And so, the Dark Lord ACORN, after much loss, slinks away, <a href="http://www.suntimes.com/news/politics/2102887,acorn-renames-rebrand-031510.article">changes his name</a> and hopes that no one will realize he still lives to continue his acts of evil.</p>
<p>Will Breitbart the White, Journo O&#8217;Keefe, the plucky Hanna, and King Roger of Ailes and his forces of the FOX be fooled? Will the people of the land of BLOG have the wool pulled over their eyes to the fact that the Dark Lord ACORN is but hiding in plain sight? Will the people of Voter turn away imagining that the battle is won when nothing could be farther from the truth?</p>
<p>Tune in as the story continues&#8230;</p>

What is a &#8220;Black Agenda&#8221;?</span><br />
</span></p>
<div>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial, Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><em>Washington, DC: </em>Mychal Massie, chairman of the Project 21 black leadership network, is critical of the premise of talk show host Tavis Smiley&#8217;s upcoming March 20 conference that seeks to set a &#8220;black agenda&#8221; for America.</p>
<p>&#8220;What is a black agenda?&#8221; asks Project 21&#8217;s Massie. &#8220;Jobs, retirement income, education, cost of living, crime and so on are not black American issues. They are American issues. It&#8217;s not predicated on race and color. So why is Tavis Smiley seeking to divide us when Americans should be coming together?&#8221;</p>
<p>Tavis Smiley, a PBS host, is set to hold a conference at Chicago State University on March 20 to discuss the alleged need for an exclusive political agenda for black Americans. Smiley has been critical of Barack Obama for not paying special attention to the black community and has taken black leaders to task for not pushing Obama to maintain a race-specific agenda for black citizens. Panelists at the event are reported to include noted left-wing luminaries Cornel West, Michael Eric Dyson, Julianne Malveaux, Jesse Jackson and Louis Farrakhan.</p>
<p>&#8220;Project 21, the group I head, exists because there are those who would deny there is a diversity of opinion within the black community,&#8221; noted Massie. &#8220;With panelists representing a political range from Jesse Jackson to Louis Farrakhan, it seems sadly obvious that Smiley&#8217;s gathering will perpetuate this myth.&#8221;</p>
<p>Talking to the Associated Press about his conference and black support for Obama during the election and the need for his March 20 conference, Smiley asked: &#8220;[N]ow that he&#8217;s elected, what are black people being asked to do to hold him accountable to our agenda?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Obama is the President of the United States of America, he is not the president of black America,&#8221; Project 21&#8217;s Massie countered. &#8220;He can no more be expected to show preferential treatment to blacks any more than Jimmy Carter was expected to have shown preferential treatment to white southerners. Smiley, who recently abandoned his &#8216;State of Black America,&#8217; is apparently feeling left out. This seems to be just another way for him to promote Tavis Smiley&#8217;s race-mongering agenda.&#8221;</p>
<p>Massie added: &#8220;One need only look at the cast malevolent marplots Smiley assembled as a panel to understand exactly what is taking place. I can assure you this is about them heretofore not being able to capitalize to the extent they would like from Obama being in office.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Public supported National Public Radio (NPR) posted a report on March 17 during its &#8220;All Things Considered&#8221; radio show that warns its listeners that &#8220;patriot groups&#8221; are dangerous and are apparently increasingly prone to attacking government officials and facilities. Oddly the two examples it uses to prove its case have no ties whatsoever to any &#8220;patriot groups.&#8221;</p>
<p>Headlined, &#8220;<a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=124784771">Hostility Against Federal Workers Troubles Officials</a>,&#8221; NPR blames &#8220;patriot groups&#8221; on these attacks and worries that &#8220;anti-government hate groups&#8221; are on the &#8220;upsurge.&#8221; And what does NPR use to prove its case? Nothing but the say so the left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center and a misconstruction of two recent attacks on government facilities by disturbed individuals.</p>
<p>NPR ominously begins its report with this:</p>
<blockquote><p>
Three attacks on U.S. government employees this year, along with an upsurge in anti-government hate groups, have officials in Washington concerned about the safety of federal workers.
</p></blockquote>
<p>The piece goes on to report that this sort of violence is a &#8220;troubling trend&#8221; and lays it all at the feet of &#8220;patriot and militia groups.&#8221;</p>
<p>NPR then tries to prove its case by discussing the two most recent sensational attackers on government facilities; Joe Stack and John Patrick Bedell.</p>
<p>Joe Stack, a disturbed man who crashed his small plane into an IRS building in Austin, Texas back in February, was not known to have any ties to any tea party group, any &#8220;patriot&#8221; group, or other right-wing groups. His <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/joseph-andrew-stacks-insane-manifesto-2010-2">manifesto</a> reads like a confused communist rant with hate for the U.S. government and George W. Bush liberally sprinkled throughout. But NPR lumps this nut in with the right with claims that they are all dangerous to government officials and facilities.</p>
<p>NPR similarly uses as proof of these dangerous patriots the disturbed actions of <a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2010/03/06/AR2010030602537.html?hpid=topnews">John Patrick Bedell</a> who opened fire on officers near the Pentagon on March 4. Bedell was an anti-war protestor, heavy marijuana user, and exhibited paranoia for which he refused to seek medical help. Bedell also has no known ties to tea party groups, any political organizations, or NPR&#8217;s frightening &#8220;patriot groups.&#8221;</p>
<p>Yet NPR put forth both of these sick-minded men as examples of &#8220;patriots&#8221; that have become dangerous and unstable. If NPR wasn&#8217;t saying so why include them in this report?</p>
<p>Naturally for its &#8220;expert&#8221; on dangerous patriots NPR turns to Mark Potok, the director of the <a href="http://www.splcenter.org/">liberal Southern Poverty Law Center</a>. As always, Potok cites claims of a &#8220;huge growth in the so-called patriot movement that includes militias out there.&#8221; Not that NPR offers any actual proof other than Potok&#8217;s say so, of course.</p>
<blockquote><p>
&#8220;We&#8217;ve seen in particular a huge growth in the so-called patriot movement that includes militias out there,&#8221; Potok says. &#8220;And I think that some of the violence that we&#8217;ve seen, such as the Pentagon shooter and the IRS, are at least in some way a reflection of that rage.&#8221;</p>
<p>Potok says there are now more than 500 patriot and militia groups active in the U.S., more than triple the number in 2008.
</p></blockquote>
<p>Again, NPR trots out Potok to warn of those evil, evil right-wing patriots and tries to back his claims up with two crazy people that have no ties at all to those same right-wing patriot groups that are being blamed for this &#8220;upsurge&#8221; in violence.</p>
<p>What NPR doesn&#8217;t tell you is the sort of people that work wt. the SPLC. Chip Berlet, for instance, is one of those people. Berlet has all sorts of extremist, left-wing associates (like anti-American billionaire financier George Soros) and is a member of other far left organizations such as the Socialist Workers Party. Here is an entry on Berlet in <a href="http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/funderProfile.asp?fndid=5184">discoverthenetwork.org</a> nestled in a page about the left-wing Tides Foundation:</p>
<blockquote><p>
Berlet is a senior analyst for Political Research Associates, and has had affiliations with the American Civil Liberties Union, the American Friends Service Committee, the Christic Institute, the Socialist Workers Party, the National Lawyers Guild, and the Southern Poverty Law Center.
</p></blockquote>
<p>To show how unbiased SLPC&#8217;s Chip Berlet is, he once wrote that, &#8220;right-wing foundations and think tanks support efforts to make bigoted and discredited ideas respectable.&#8221;  Not too biased there, eh?</p>
<p>Discoverthenetwork.org also has a <a href="http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/groupProfile.asp?grpid=6989">page on the SPLC</a> itself.</p>
<p>So, for its expert on those monstrous patriot groups, NPR turns to a group that has ties to the Socialist Workers Party, George Soros, and the anti-Christian ACLU and then expects us to think such an organization should be accepted as an unbiased news source! Apparently NPR does expect us all to accept as gospel its left-biased report on how dangerous those &#8220;patriots&#8221; are, but I hope America is more skeptical than that.</p>
<p>Remember folks, our tax dollars support NPR.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><i>&#8220;If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn&#8217;t. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn&#8217;t be. And what it wouldn&#8217;t be, it would. You see&#8221;&#8211;<br />
Alice of Alice&#8217;s Adventures in Wonderland</i></p>
<p>Clearly the left are Aliceites. They are aficionados of Alice viewing the world through the looking glass. They want a world of nonsense, a world devoid of meaning so that everything can be molded and morphed at will into anything that appeals to temporary desires. It is called situational ethics, which are, of course, no ethics at all.</p>
<p>Today we have two examples of this, one in America and one in England. We&#8217;ll focus on England first.</p>
<p>The UK Telegraph is <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/7446850/Briton-is-recognised-as-worlds-first-officially-genderless-person.html">reporting</a> about the new it, the new thing assuming a status of &#8220;personhood,&#8221; a genderless human. That&#8217;s right the Telegraph is purporting that a British citizen is &#8220;officially&#8221; a genderless human, neither male nor female.</p>
<p>Norrie May-Welby, we are told, was born a man but had a sex change operation in 1990. For a time this &#8220;person&#8221; lived as a woman. But now she-he-it has decided that, “The concepts of man or woman don’t fit me. The simplest solution is not to have any sex identification.” </p>
<p>And so, the Aliceites in British government decided to comply and make May-Welby an &#8220;official&#8221; person of &#8220;no specific gender.&#8221; </p>
<p>Just as the Brits claimed to have the <a href="http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/worldnews/article-1036874/Pictured-First-man-world-birth-shows-new-baby-girl.html">first man to have a baby</a> back in 2008, now the Brits claim to have the first genderless person. But true to their Aliceite tendencies, neither is true and both &#8220;would be what it isn&#8217;t.&#8221;</p>
<p>You see, the &#8220;first man to have a baby&#8221; was never a man &#8212; born a woman, period &#8212; and the first &#8220;genderless person&#8221; was born a man and is still despite the cosmetic veneer carved into his flesh.</p>
<p>My second story is in Washington D.C. where President Obama and his minions in Congress are trying to pass a bill that no one has voted for using the so-called process of &#8220;<a href="http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Politics/2010/0316/Deem-and-pass-Democrats-new-tactic-for-healthcare-reform-bill">deeming</a>&#8221; and the &#8220;<a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-503544_162-20000241-503544.html">Slaughter rule</a>.&#8221;</p>
<p>Democrats can&#8217;t get enough votes for their socialist takeover of America&#8217;s healthcare system so, instead of applying the centuries old process of campaigning for a law, writing a law, and then seeing that law voted up or down by our duly elected representatives, the Democrats are peering through the looking glass to find the Aliceite way to pass a bill into law without anyone voting at all.</p>
<p>Just like the left in the west is making murderous Islam a protected class, just as it imagines it can create an economy by stifling business, just as these illogical nits imagine that they can destroy all history and make the world new merely by saying so, they&#8217;ve created a world where &#8220;nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn&#8217;t.&#8221;</p>
<p>As the Wall Street Journal <a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052748703909804575123512773070080.html?mod=rss_opinion_main">says</a>, &#8220;We have entered a political wonderland, where the rules are whatever Democrats say they are.&#8221; But the WSJ is only focused on U.S. politics. A wider view would find that we are all Aliceites now.</p>

<p><strong>This time the Fox News commentator who, as great a conservative/libertarian/anti-progressive as he is, once again ran his mouth before fully engaging his brain on the issue of social justice and churches.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Beck touched on the problem of social justice which is not an issue involving justice for everyone in society.  Beck viewed the term as a buzzword for priests, ministers, rabbis who want to effect a Communist or Nazi version of social justice.</strong></p>
<p><strong>That&#8217;s way over the top but, in Beck&#8217;s defense, it really involves misinterpreted definitions.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Take the words separately.  </strong></p>
<p><strong>&#8220;Social&#8221; refers to society and everyone in that society.  That would include the rich, poor, and everyone in between.  </strong><strong>&#8220;Justice&#8221; refers to fairmindedness, equity.  </strong></p>
<p><strong>Combined, however, the term &#8220;social justice&#8221; takes on a whole new meaning in contemporary jargon, a meaning many on the Left interpret as sharing the wealth, as Obama said during the campaign, or wholesale re-distribution of America&#8217;s wealth, taking from the rich to share with the poor.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Obama&#8217;s favorite community activist organization, the almost-defunct ACORN, was a prime proponent of social justice which to them meant taking from anyone who worked for a living and giving to ACORN-types.</strong></p>
<p><strong>That scheme was fine for Robin Hood who never came close to impoverishing the nobility from whom he stole.  The ACORNers plan was not as much to raise up the poor as it was to bring down people of means. </strong></p>
<p><strong>The distorted Leftist view is that whoever has money acquired it by force, deceit, cheating, or other nefarious deeds and thus are not entitled to their ill-gotten gains. </strong><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>So too is another relatively small group unentitled, those who inherited their money.  Think Rockefellers and Kennedys, unentitled since their inherited wealth was derived from forebears who used force, deceit, cheating to originally get rich.</strong></p>
<p><strong>There&#8217;s something to be said for seizing and re-distributing all that wealth, not much but something.  The same people who buy into the idea also allege that White Europeans stole America from the indigenous populations whereas this land of ours was acquired through a time-honored method: war and conquest.</strong></p>
<p><strong>In short, we won, they lost.  &#8216;Twas ever thus.  Case closed.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Likewise with wealth acquired through less than admirable ways, as in rum-running by Papa Joe Kennedy or being a thieving oil baron like John D. Rockefeller.  </strong><strong>It may not be especially palatable to most people who didn&#8217;t come up with the idea first but the alternative of social justice through income re-distribution is even less palatable under the American system.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Who would get what and how much would they get?  What criteria would be established to determine the most needy?  If the most needy get the bulk of other&#8217;s wealth, would the less needy but still needy be content?  If it&#8217;s fairly distributed, who&#8217;s to define what&#8217;s fair?  The government?  And who is to pass judgment on any government&#8217;s sense of equity?</strong></p>
<p><strong>Personally, I&#8217;d almost trust the Kennedys and Rockefellers before any government entity. </strong></p>
<p><strong>All those questions are moot, anyway, in our constitutional, democratic republic and if that re-distribution of wealth in the name of social justice were ever to become the law of the land, my guess is that within a generation or so those who started out poor will be poor once again and those who began rich would be rich again.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Jesus Christ may have preached social justice and I&#8217;m personally in favor of it.  That is, as long as the financial aspect of that justice is predicated on voluntary giving through charity.  If not, I vote for Glenn Beck and advise that anyone who is advised by a priest or church to share the wealth insist that the priest and church share their wealth and perks first.</strong></p>
<p><strong>If they agree, tell them you&#8217;ll think about it, then switch churches.</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>It&#8217;s a veritable cornucopia of Obamagandistic musical agitprop. You&#8217;ll recall the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcm0oAcEey0">militaristic, fascist-styled Obama youth corps</a> from 2008 where a line of inner city youth stamped out their obeisance militia-like to The One like good little automatons?  Perhaps the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmdWvKzH6R4">slickly produced exploitation of sweet faced children</a> from Hollywood that same year will ring a bell? Or maybe your favorite is <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAYlQhhocMw">this misuse of class time</a> in Georgia? Or per chance you&#8217;ll recall &#8220;<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8HEPZGfmYs">Barack Hussein Obama, mmm, mmm, mmm</a>&#8220;? These are excellent examples of the Obama version of Leni Riefenstahl&#8217;s art. </p>
<p>But those? Well, those are all low class affairs done without an entire orchestra to back them up.</p>
<p>Now we have the brilliance of School children in Illinois, Comrade Obama&#8217;s home turf, to add to the din of young musicians enslaved to efforts to exalt Dear Leader. And this tops them all in production values &#8212; or at least in scope &#8212; for the <a href="http://mya.org/">Midwest Young Artists</a> organization, a group dedicated to &#8220;inspiration through music,&#8221; has taken upon itself to give the Obammessiah the full orchestral treatment along with a choir and a spoken word segment to round out the production. Uncle Joe couldn&#8217;t have created a better display of fealty to Dear Leader. Kim Jong Il is likely red with envy.</p>
<p>Like a good little soldier for the cause Gary Fry, the Choral Program Director and Voices Rising Director for MYA, sat himself down to try his hand at composing a Wagnerian masterpiece, one of which any dictator would be proud. And boy does he deliver. (The original source may be found at the <a href="http://wmya.fm/2010/03/06/wmya-99-hope/">WMYA.fm page</a>) After he was done with his Wagnerian moment, Mr. Fry had his piece performed on February 21, 2010 at Pick-Staiger Auditorium in Evanston, Illinois, a northern suburb of Chicago. And he enlisted the service of an entire auditorium of Chicago area school children for his paean to Dear Leader.</p>
<p>Now if you can excuse the miscues of these young artists, after all they are only in middle school, if you can set aside your need for technical perfection from the performers for just a minute, if you can look past the occasionally off-key squawk of a horn here, or a missed cue there, you really should watch this thing. Watch this video and listen to the grand scope of what Gary &#8220;Nietzsche cum Wagner&#8221; Fry was aiming for and it is sure to send a thrill down your leg and satisfy your need to stand up and salute your glorious leader in the White House. Long live Obama, long live Obama…</p>
<p align="center"><object width="325" height="244"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/1k8i6iK3bH0&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/1k8i6iK3bH0&#038;hl=en_US&#038;fs=1&#038;" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="325" height="244"></embed></object></p>
<p>Perhaps you are as disgusted by this as I am? These orgiastic examples of propaganda for Obama are sickening we all know. In fact, not only are they sickening, entirely un-American, and even dangerous, they are hypocritical. After all, the same drooling, Obamagobsmacked pseudo intellectuals that created these bits of PR puffery would have been apoplectic if so many schools would have sang songs extolling the virtues of George W. Bush… or any other Republican for that matter. Call it a brainwashing tool, call it agitprop, indoctrination, or what ever you like. But at least when we&#8217;ve had celebrations of president in schools in the past the president in question at least had the decency to have already left office or even died &#8212; or at the very least was in attendance at the performance to politely applaud the little kiddie&#8217;s efforts.</p>
<p>These various efforts at Obamaganda were un-burdened by any rationale but to inculcate praises for dear leader in the young, impressionable minds of our school children.</p>
<p>Yep, it&#8217;s pretty disgusting, alright.</p>
<p>Well, it&#8217;s nice we can sing praises to <i>something</i> in our schools now, I suppose. After all, the ACLU and the Democrats have summarily eliminated anything that might be reasonably construed as a reference to Christianity. So, Dear Leader has replaced all that &#8220;God&#8221; stuff with himself in our schools. All praise Obama. He&#8217;s The One. May he reign as our ruler forever. So says, Gary &#8220;Nietzsche cum Wagner&#8221; Fry, so say we all.</p>
<p><i>Descriptions of the four clips linked above:</i></p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcm0oAcEey0">#1-</a> A fascist-styled paramilitary youth corps video made by a teacher at the Urban Community Leadership Academy in Kansas City, Mo.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kmdWvKzH6R4">#2-</a> The parents of a private school in Venice, California forced their kids to sing praises to Dear Leader while their Hollyweird pals made a nice, slick production out of the affair.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAYlQhhocMw">#3-</a> This video was made by &#8220;Mr. B&#8221; and the kids from &#8220;room 8&#8243; in what I think is a public grade school in Georgia.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8HEPZGfmYs">#4-</a> Of course, we all remember this clip whose tag line is &#8220;Barack Hussein Obama, mmm, mmm, mmm,&#8221; made famous by the kiddies from B. Bernice Young Elementary School in Burlington Township, NJ. The songs were written by Ms. Charisse Carney-Nunes, a children&#8217;s author.</p>

<p></span><span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial, Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"><strong>Progressive Policies at Walt Disney Risk Damage to its Brand Image, says Free Enterprise Project</p>
<p>Shareholders Urged to Challenge CEO Bob Iger at Disney&#8217;s Annual Meeting</strong></span></p>
<div><span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial, Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><em>Washington, D.C.: </em>On occasion of the Disney annual shareholder meeting today, the Free Enterprise Project is warning Disney shareholders that CEO Robert Iger&#8217;s progressive political bias puts investors at risk.</p>
<p>The Free Enterprise Project is a program of the National Center for Public Policy Research, a Disney shareholder.</p>
<p>&#8220;Iger&#8217;s rejection of several offers to sell the distribution rights of the ABC-TV docudrama <em>The Path to 9/11</em> is a sign that his personal political views are affecting business decisions,&#8221; said Free Enterprise Project director Dr. Tom Borelli, who has <a href="http://cmpgnr.com/r.html?c=1596719&amp;r=1595378&amp;t=301224913&amp;l=1&amp;d=91573109&amp;u=http%3a%2f%2fwww%2enationalcenter%2eorg%2fPR%2dDisney%5fIger%5fShareholder031009%2ehtml&amp;g=0&amp;f=91573113">raised the issue personally with Iger</a> at past shareholder meetings. &#8220;In addition, Disney&#8217;s close ties to progressive Democrats, including President Obama, may have resulted in ABC News&#8217; special access to cover the president&#8217;s health care policy in a day-long media blitz last year.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Iger&#8217;s policy decisions are putting Disney in the cross-hairs of millions of Americans who are rejecting the progressive assault on liberty. By rebuffing offers to sell the distribution rights of <em>The Path to 9/11</em>, Iger is simultaneously silencing speech while denying shareholders an opportunity to profit from the company&#8217;s investment,&#8221; Borelli added. &#8220;Playing progressive politics is a dangerous game for a company such as Disney that relies on a squeaky clean brand for its revenue.&#8221;</p>
<p>The political motivation behind Iger&#8217;s decision to bury the docudrama remains a topic of discussion years after its broadcast. Some assert that Iger&#8217;s motivation to not let the award winning miniseries see the light of day is driven by his desire to protect the legacy of President Clinton regarding terrorism.</p>
<p>Andrew Breitbart&#8217;s Big Hollywood recently <a href="http://cmpgnr.com/r.html?c=1596719&amp;r=1595378&amp;t=301224913&amp;l=1&amp;d=91573098&amp;u=http%3a%2f%2fbighollywood%2ebreitbart%2ecom%2fmtapson%2f2010%2f01%2f29%2fclinton%2dsupporter%2drobert%2diger%2ddga%2dhonors%2dexec%2dwho%2dbanished%2dpath%2dto%2d911%2dminiseries%2f&amp;g=0&amp;f=91573113">reported</a> on the issues surrounding Iger&#8217;s controversial verdict.</p>
<p>Last June, ABC News was given special access to the White House to cover President Obama&#8217;s health care initiative. ABC&#8217;s &#8220;Good Morning America&#8221; was broadcasted from the White House lawn, &#8220;World News,&#8221; its nightly news show from the Blue Room, and a special prime time &#8220;Questions for the President: Prescription for America,&#8221; from the East Room.</p>
<p>&#8220;A monopoly given to ABC for news coverage raises serious concerns of media independence. The perception that the White House is choosing ABC over other news organizations because of favorable coverage has the potential to damage the credibility of Disney&#8217;s news division,&#8221; said Borelli.</p>
<p>The proximity between Iger and his team with progressives only adds concerns about media independence. Not only is Iger a generous supporter of progressive politicians (about ninety percent of his donations go to Democrats and liberal PACs), but Disney board member Monica C. Lozano, CEO of La Opinion, a major Spanish-language newspaper in the U.S., is a member of Obama&#8217;s economic recovery board.</p>
<p>&#8220;The close alliance between Disney and the Obama Administration can be a risk to shareholders. What happens to Disney if Tea Party members and other liberty-minded activists turn on the company because of concerns that Iger is using the company to advance the goals of the progressive movement?,&#8221; asks Borelli.</p>
<p>&#8220;&#8216;I&#8217;m <strong>not</strong> going to Disney World&#8217; could become the battle cry for American patriots.&#8221;</p>
<p>Given these risks, shareholders attending Disney&#8217;s annual meeting should ask Iger: </span></p>
<blockquote><p><span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial, Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">With millions of Americans outraged over the progressive attack on liberty, are you concerned your refusal to sell &#8220;The Path to 9/11,&#8221; and your personal support of the progressive agenda will cause a conservative backlash against Disney&#8217;s brands? </span></p></blockquote>
<p><span style="font-family: Verdana,Arial, Helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The shareholder meeting is on March 10, 2010 at the JW Marriott San Antonio Hill Country, San Antonio, Texas.</p>
<p>The National Center for Public Policy Research (<a href="http://cmpgnr.com/r.html?c=1596719&amp;r=1595378&amp;t=301224913&amp;l=1&amp;d=91573104&amp;u=http%3a%2f%2fwww%2enationalcenter%2eorg%2f&amp;g=0&amp;f=91573113">http://www.nationalcenter.org</a>) is a conservative, Constitutionalist, free-market non-profit think-tank established in 1982. It is supported by the voluntary gifts of over 100,000 individual recent supporters, and receives less than one percent of its revenue from corporate sources.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For the Independent Weekly of Durham, North Carolina, writer Sam Wardle proves that he hasn&#8217;t a clue how the phrase &#8220;religious extremist&#8221; is properly defined. But, I&#8217;d suggest that his confusion is endemic in the far left and proves to show why so many in the west don&#8217;t understand how to face and defeat the real religious extremism of radical Islam.</p>
<p>In a story about Representative Sue Myrick (R, NC) and her association with The National Council on Bible Curriculum in Public Schools as juxtaposed with her condemnation of radical Islam, Wardle sees no difference between a radical Islamist that might blow himself up with a suicide vest or cut off the head of a helpless captive and a Christian American that wants to use properly constituted law to have the Holy Bible used in the classroom.</p>
<p>Certainly you can disagree with having the Bible used as a text in the classroom, but to say that a person that does want the Bible in the classroom is no better than a terrorist is, well, just plain stupid. It is also intellectually vapid. Unfortunately, Mr. Wardle is all too representative of the vapidity of the left that so often comes to this intellectually dishonest conclusion.</p>
<p>Wardle reveals his hatred of all things Christian in his IndyWeek piece titled, &#8220;<a href="http://www.indyweek.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A411960">For Rep. Sue Myrick, Islamic moderates are extreme, Christian extremists are moderate</a>,&#8221; wherein he equates Rep. Myrick to a religious extremist. </p>
<p>Wardle start his piece straight on with an attack on Rep. Myrick:<br />
<blockquote> Rep. Sue Myrick (R-NC) is one of North Carolina&#8217;s staunchest defenders from Islamic extremism. When it comes to Christian extremism, though, the record is more mixed. </p></blockquote>
<p> Wardle says that Myrick&#8217;s &#8220;defense against Islamic extremism&#8221; itself borders on the extreme.</p>
<p>Those are pretty serious charges, of course. So what does Wardle show as his proof to bear out the finger wagging at Myrick? One of the first of Wardle&#8217;s accusations would take an Olympic gymnast&#8217;s back-bending performance to agree with. In short it is weak as heck.<br />
<blockquote> However, Myrick&#8217;s concern over religious extremism seems relegated to practitioners of one religion. At the forum, she pointedly avoided applying the label of &#8220;terrorist&#8221; to Joseph Stack, the 53-year-old Texan who flew his airplane into an IRS building in Austin in February. </p></blockquote>
<p> Whether Stack should have been termed a terrorist by Myrick or not is one question, but what it has to do with the subject of religion is anyone&#8217;s guess. Austin IRS building attacker Joe Stack had no connection to any religion whatever. He did not perpetrate his act of terror in the name of religion so Wardle&#8217;s usage of Stack as his religious foil for Myrick is insensible. But such is Wardle&#8217;s hatred for both Myrick and Christianity that any stretch is excused, apparently.</p>
<p>Then Wardle goes on the attack against The NCBCPS, a &#8220;right-wing evangelical group&#8221; in Wardle&#8217;s terminology. Wardle reports that the NCBCPS&#8217; goal is to &#8220;bring a state certified (sic) Bible course (elective) into the public high schools nationwide.&#8221; He says that the group claims that it has gotten its curriculum in 532 schools in 38 states.</p>
<p>Wardle counters that success by revealing that this group&#8217;s school texts have been criticized as containing &#8220;shoddy research, factual errors and plagiarism.&#8221; Wardle also lays out all the other groups and Media outlets that have attacked the veracity of the NCBCPS&#8217; offerings.</p>
<p>But one thing is completely missing from Wardle&#8217;s piece. Any actual &#8220;extremism.&#8221; Apparently just the fact that the NCBCPS wants to get its curriculum in a school is enough to be classified just as extreme as al Qaieda to one such as Wardle</p>
<p>But implicit in the whole discussion (but only implied because Wardle does not say it) is the fact that if the NCBCPS did get its curriculum in schools in 38 states it must have done so through the legitimate process of appealing to school boards and having those schools agree to accept the program. In other words, the NCBCPS followed the same legal procedure that every other education advocate has followed.</p>
<p>Notice how the NCBCPS didn&#8217;t win over those schools by cutting off administrator&#8217;s heads, bombing public buildings, or killing students thereby using intimidation and violence to get its way. So, while this Christian group is certainly seriously active, to act as if they are somehow just as extreme as Islamic Radicals is idiotic.</p>
<p>But this is the empty logic that befalls the far left in this country. Any religion, all religion is classified as &#8220;extreme&#8221; to these people. No logic need apply.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We send our young adults to university to be educated in the ways of the world, we all know. Following that well-worn path, young James Schackleford decided on the publicly funded <a href="http://www.fau.edu/">Florida Atlantic University</a> for his edification and boy did he learn a lesson about modern education last week. Mr. Schackleford learned that the FAU administration prefers on its campus Islamic terrorist supporters over representatives of the conservative <a href="http://www.yaf.com/">Young Americans for Freedom</a> organization. He also learned that it’s open season on all conservatives at our American universities.</p>
<p>At the Boca Raton campus Mr. Schackleford determined that his school needed a chapter of YAF, a 40-year-old conservative student organization, and so gathered a few like-minded students to meet with YAF State Director Daniel P. Diaz to discuss how they should proceed on organizing a chapter in the school.</p>
<p>As the few gathered were meeting, university administrator *David Blank burst into the room and demanded that they cease their meeting and vacate the room. According to the <a href="http://www.yaf.com/news/details.php?newsId=601">YAF press release</a>, Mr. Schackleford asked for an additional 15 minutes to finish and Blank acquiesced to the request. But the 15-minute grant was short lived.</p>
<blockquote><p>
Upon hearing Diaz address the liberal bias on the FAU campus, Blank stopped the meeting again and boorishly ordered the students to vacate the meeting room.  Blank the shut off the room lights, tore down the group’s promotional posters, and called the campus police.
</p></blockquote>
<p>It didn&#8217;t end there. According to YAF, the campus police arrived and began to harass the students and Mr. Diaz outside as they were in the process of leaving the campus. The police demanded to see student IDs and then menacingly followed YAF rep. Diaz to his car.</p>
<p>Police told Diaz that they were investigating a &#8220;possible trespassing charge,&#8221; and then loudly joked that Diaz &#8220;probably had tea bags hanging out the back of his car&#8221; as Diaz prepared to leave.</p>
<p>Diaz says that the whole incident is proof positive of why a conservative group is needed at Florida Atlantic University.</p>
<blockquote><p>
“If we were a Marxist, Socialist or Liberal group they would have let us finish our meeting, but the university officials and police harassed us because we are conservatives. This was the exact liberal bias on campus that I was discussing in the meeting that these future YAFers experienced firsthand. The university is no longer a place of open discussion and freedom of expression, but a breeding ground of intolerance for conservative beliefs.”
</p></blockquote>
<p>One question immediately comes to mind over this incident: did student organizer Schackleford and YAF representative Diaz officially reserve a room at FAU for their informal meeting? I asked Diaz this very question.</p>
<p>Diaz told me that since it was an informal meeting that should have been over rather quickly, Mr. Schackleford did not think that he needed to officially reserve a room through the university staff. In fact, according to Diaz, himself a former FAU student, such unscheduled meetings occur all the time.</p>
<blockquote><p>
No we did not reserve a room. When I was a student at the university when a room wasn&#8217;t being occupied one could go in and meet or study, and as long they left before the next scheduled group arrived they would be ok. After asking around that is how it still is.
</p></blockquote>
<p>In retrospect it was an obvious lapse in judgment not to officially reserve a room. Or perhaps they should have met off campus.</p>
<p>However, that small lapse in judgment does not absolve this oppressive, over-the-top reaction that university administrator David Blank exhibited. After all, not long ago <a href="http://www.militantislammonitor.org/article/id/1894">Florida Atlantic University hosted a whole slew of Islamic terror supporters on campus</a>. In 2006, for instance, the Muslim students group at FAU hosted an event at which appeared Hamas and Hezbollah supporter, Al-Haaj Ghazi Khankan; alleged Neo-Nazi, William Baker; and potential co-conspirator of the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center, Siraj Wahhaj.</p>
<p>Apparently it’s perfectly O.K., as far as the FAU administration is concerned, to have Islamofascist terror given full-throated support on its campus but it is a serious no-no to talk about organizing a patriotic American conservative student&#8217;s organization there.</p>
<p>Perhaps Mr. Diaz is right in his contention that a YAF chapter is sorely needed at Florida Atlantic University?</p>
<p>*David Blank <a href="http://www.fau.edu/studentunion/administration/staff.php">appears</a> to be the Event Planning Specialist for the Student Union at FAU. He can be reached at <a href="mailto:dblank@fau.edu">dblank@fau.edu</a>.</p>
