French forces opened fire Tuesday as protesters massed between the Ivory Coast president’s home and an evacuation post for foreigners. A hospital reported seven people were killed and more than 200 wounded.

It’s Indochine all over again.

Howard Dean Considering DNC Chairman Bid

Dean has been outspoken since the beginning of his presidential bid in saying that the Democratic Party must establish a separate and unique identity from Republicans.

The Ku Klux Klan has a separate and unique identity from Republicans. (It also has roots in the Democratic Party.)

Secession, States’ Rights and Abortion

Filed under: — site admin @ 9:55 am

11/18/04 Update: FoxNews has a piece here that discusses what I point out below.
The idle talk of secession by the Blue States from the USA made me realize something.

Regarding Abortion, the Democratic party’s fetishistic devotion to this controversial procedure revolves around the 1973 Supreme Court Decision Roe v. Wade. I am not a legal scholar, but I have learned a thing or two despite my earning a degree at university.

Roe v. Wade legalized abortion on the federal level by granting it federal protection through a “right to privacy” that does not explicitly exist in the Constitution. As such states could not pass laws outlawing the procedure because to do so would violate federal law.

Overturning Roe v. Wade would NOT make abortion illegal in all 50 states. Should Roe v. Wade be overturned, the legality of the procedure would be decided at the state level, since the US Constitution explicitly states that any law not decided at the federal level should be handled at the state level.

The irony of the Liberal’s religious belief in abortion then becomes apparent:
Liberals are chafing at federal rule by the great “unwashed” in the Red States as evidenced by the talk of secession, yet they are against states rights.

This leads to the following conclusion:
Liberals don’t care about women or their “right to choose". Instead they care about forcing their beliefs on those who find them morally repugnant.

I recognize that the Democrats are going through some soul searching, but they must because they have lost touch with mainstream America. What’s the mainstream? Look at a Red/Blue map by county, and notice the sea of Red - even in the Blue states. That is the mainstream.

Democrats need to get real. Electing Howard Dean head of the DNC isn’t getting real.

I want an alternative to the Republican Party, but so far the Democratic Party is not it.

Fight the power?

Dean Esmay gets medieval on the whining-loser-Left:


“A lot of us grew up being told to question authority, and a lot of that authority we now question is the left-wing orthodoxy of your generation…”

Question Authority! - unless the Left is the authority.
Fight the Power! - unless the Left is the one in power.

I think it’s time to reread Orwell’s Animal Farm.
