The Left loves separating children from their parents

When Bill Clinton signed into law the law that is currently leading, in combination with a 9th circuit court ruling, to the separation of illegals who are caught breaking the law by entering the country illegally leftists did not begin a long term campaign to overturn it.

When Obama separated the children of illegals from their criminal parents leftists said nothing.

When Trump continued the same policy leftists became enraged and one suggested that Trump's child should be raped.

When Trump used an executive order to stop the practice the left acted as though nothing had happened.

Wait...what?  That's right Trump signed an executive order ending the practice something that old Obama with his pen and his phone never did and the left and the media, I love redundancy, are acting as though he didn't do anything.

Apparently the only reason the left cares about the kids of illegals is if they can be used to guilt trip Americans into accepting open borders.

How else can we explain that when Obama separated kids from their parents leftists said nothing, when Trump separated kids the left howled, and when Trump--unlike Obama--ended the policy the left kept howling?

Of course we can know from other leftist positions that the left doesn't care about separating kids from their parents.

First if you live in America and commit a crime you will be separated from your kids and the left is cool with that.

Second the left supports the idea of hedonism and easy divorce and, since the times of Murphy Brown, extols the idea of single parent families.  Yet in single parent families kids are not temporarily separated from one parent; they're essentially permanently separated from one parent.  So clearly separating a kid from his dad is not viewed as a problem by the left.

Third the left is all in for the greatness of a woman's right to choose to separate her child from life. Which one would think is a bit more severe than just say having the kid and then putting her up for adoption even though adoption results in a separation from a kids biological parents.

So remember that the same folk who are saying Trump is a monster for having ended a practice that Obama maintained are the ones who are not bothered that 1,000,000 innocent children are killed each year in America through abortion.

If that's caring about the kids I'd really hate to see what not caring about kids entails.

Tyranny vs Freedom

The fight over the replacement of Justice Kennedy is a fight over the nature of America; will America  be a free country or will it be a tyranny?

Trump will nominate a judge who believes the role of the Court is to interpret the law in light of the intent of those who passed it.  That means that the Court will not make laws and will not subvert the Democratic process.

Leftists want a judge who will impose their ideological beliefs on the people which is tyranny.

It's not a fight between conservatives and leftists but a fight between those who believe that power belongs to the people and those who believe that power belongs to the elites.

How you can tell that Democrat politicians don't care about children

In order to distract from the NK summit, the IG report, and the booming economy the Democrat Media complex has been ranting about the horror of separating children from their criminal parents at the border.

First note that when American citizens are arrested for a crime they are separated from their children and the Democrats have never complained about that.  So the outrage by the Dem/Media complex is either because they love foreigners more than Americans or because they think they can use the issue to win the upcoming election.

Second these separations have been going on since the Clinton era and Democrats and the Media said nothing.  Obama separated tens of thousands of children and the Dems and the Media were completely chill with it.  Hence it's clear that they don't really care about the children being separated or they are more concerned about maintaining power and so they didn't raise the issue while Obama was President since it might have reduced their political power.

Third Trump and the Republicans have offered to work with the Democrats to fix this one problem yet the Democrats refuse to do so. Clearly they think that it's more important for the Democrats to have an issue that might help them win the upcoming elections than it is to actually help the children.

All roads lead to the same conclusion; Democrats and the Media are simply using these children to further their own quest for more power.  Neither group actually gives a darn about the kids.

The bad news for the Democrat politicians is that a noticeable fraction of people who vote Democrat actually do care about the kids and if they find out that the Democrat politicians are actually callously using the children, despite the lies being pushed by the #FakeNews media,  they may decide to either not vote or vote Republican.

Why you have to vote Republican in the Fall.

Today the Supreme Court majority said that what a policy says not what a politician may have said is what matters.  But the left wing minority in the Supreme Court said that a policy that would have been legal if Hillary were President was not legal because Trump is President.

Essentially the liberal minority said there is no limit to the power of the judiciary; it's not constrained by the wording of the constitution or the wording of the law.  If a judge says something that the President or Congress does is wrong then the judge has the final say.  It doesn't matter if there is nothing in the law or the Constitution to support the judges reasoning; all that matters is that the judge has spoken.

Also today the Court ruled that a Jewish charity can't be forced to post a sign telling people how to get to a Nazi organization, a Black charity can't be forced to provide directions to the nearest KKK chapter, and that a Muslim charity can't be forced to provide directions to the nearest butcher who sells pork.

All of that flows from the Courts ruling that the insane government of California can't force pro-life pregnancy centers to post signs directing people to the nearest abortion mill.  But once again the left wing minority on the court argued that the state does have the right to force people to advocate for things they believe go against their religions beliefs and that the 1st Amendment doesn't protect people from being forced by the government to say things that they don't believe in.

The reason this shows why you have to vote Republican is that without Trump as President and a Republican controlled Senate both of these decisions would have gone the other way.

If the left wing had picked a judge to replace Scalia the Court would have ruled that judges can overrule any action of the Congress and/or the President that they don't like even if the law and the Constitution says that the action is legal.

Similarly if we didn't have Trump and a Republican controlled Senate the Court would have ruled that Blacks would have to post signs directing people to the nearest KKK chapter.

So no matter how fed up you are with the Republicans in Congress not getting the job done remember that the alternative is the House impeaching Trump and basically stopping him from doing anything for the next 2 years and the Senate only approving activist judges who will act as petty dictators rather than honest arbiters of the law.

How Trump is saving America

Because Trump picked an honest judge for the Supreme Court we are less likely to be ruled by the fiat of unelected judges.

Had Hillary been elected she would have probably nominated a judge who believed that the Constitution was a living document that could be interpreted in any way that supported the leftist agenda.

Which means that instead of ruling that the government can't force pro-life pregnancy centers to advocate for abortion we'd be living in  land where the 1st Amendment only applies to leftists.

Every "win" by the leftists on social issues has been forced by the activist judges in the Supreme Court.  From legalizing the most obscene pornography, to abortion, to gay marriage the people have never elected representatives who would advance the leftist agenda.  Instead the Supreme Court has imposed these things on the people.

That's why the most important thing about a President these days is not what they do but who they pick for the Supreme Court.

Impossible challange

Post something the left has done that has improved America, or helped the poor, or helped Blacks, or not hurt America.

Why it’s obvious that Thanos is a leftist

WARNING; SPOILERS

In the latest Marvel Studio movie, Avengers Infinity War, the bad guy is called Thanos.

He's trying to get infinite power so that he can kill 1/2 of the population of the universe because the universe is supposedly over populated.

We can tell that Thanos is a leftist because instead of using his infinite power to make more living space for all those intelligent beings he wants to use the power to eliminate them.  Just like leftists want to solve the problems of the Third World by killing brown babies with abortion rather than helping the Third World’s economies grow.

We can tell that Thanos is a leftist because he believes that he has the authority to decide for all the rest of us whether we should live or die.  Just as leftists support the idea that judges can overrule the people by redefining the “living” Constitution and making abortion legal.

We can tell that Thanos is a leftist because he claims that killing half of us is for our own good. Just like leftists support a mother’s right to kill her unborn daughter because the mother thinks that the daughter’s life won't be good enough.

We can tell that Thanos is a leftist because he is completely unconcerned about the consequences of his actions.  Few societies could survive having half of their citizens disappear.  Hence after Thanos kills all those people most of the universe will crash into a new age of misery. But Thanos doesn’t care, just like leftists don't care that raising the minimum wage will result in fewer jobs for low skill workers.

We can tell that Thanos is a leftist because he doesn't care who he kills.  He doesn't execute the criminals or try and save the good people he simply kills at random.  Just like leftists who are always more concerned with the criminals getting a fair shake than about the victims. Thanos and leftist both refuse to believe that some people are worse in their behaviors than others.

We can tell that Thanos is a leftist because he's in love with some idealized vision of a universe with fewer people but he pays no attention to the consequences of realizing that vision.  Just as leftists extoll the "virtues" of ideal socialism while ignoring the actual worldly results of socialism.

We can tell that Thanos is a leftist because he ignores real science. There is no way that the universe is overpopulated when Earth alone isn't and we haven't even started to colonize Mars.  If the universe were overpopulated the folks on Marvel's Earth would be seeing new alien races every few days but they don't.  Thanos is just like leftists who ignore the science that proves that life begins at conception, that our sex is defined by our DNA, and that the Earth isn't warming the way the models say it should be.

Who'd a thunk that Marvel would make the ultimate villain in their biggest movie project to date a leftist?

Understanding the Left

Roseanne Barr made a racist comment, apologized, and her career was destroyed.

Peter Fonda called for President Trump's 12 year old son to be raped, apologized, and his career is doing fine.

To understand leftists all you need to realize is that they have no problem with what happened to either Fonda or Barr.

More proof of Leftist dishonesty

We were told that Trump is a monster because the laws of the land, passed under Clinton, he was properly following forced separations between children and their parents who were being arrested.

The leftists were obviously lying since the same thing happened under Obama and they didn't care.

But now Trump has done the right thing and families will be detained together and instead of applauding and commending Trump the leftists are now saying that detaining people trying to break into the US to get welfare for life is evil.

The reality is that leftists don't care about children, if they did they wouldn't be big fans of abortion, and that they were just using children to try and get open borders.

It's fairly clear that if Trump were to now allow anyone who could sneak across the border to stay leftists would call him a monster for not giving them citizenship and allowing them to vote.

Bottom line whenever a leftist says it's about the children it's safe to assume that it's not; for leftists it's always about them and their political power.

Not separating kids will lead to more children suffering

If all the parents a child has are arrested that child is not allowed to stay with them while they're in jail.

To sane people this makes sense since putting kids in a prison full of criminal adults is not something rational people think sounds good.

This separation occurs on a regular basis for the American children of American parents.

If illegals don't want it to happen to their children all they have to do is go to a border crossing and legally apply for asylum.  But it's clear that the parents in these cases aren't worried about being separated from their kids enough to avoid breaking the law.

What the leftists want is an open border where any family unit that tries to cross can't be detained.

But what would that lead to?  Imagine if you're MS-13 and you want to smuggle in a bunch of mid-20s or older thugs. Wouldn't it make sense to kidnap a kid from some house near the border in Mexico and claim that the kid was yours?  Because if the leftists have their way if you're with a kid, even if you can't show it's your kid, you have to be released immediately into the US.

If leftists get their way on this there will be a booming market in children for rent, lease, and sale near the border to ensure that anyone can waltz into America even if they get caught by the Border Patrol.

But then leftists won't care because they don't really care about the children; if they did they'd have been complaining about this policy when Obama was enforcing it.

The myth of the honest FBI/DOJ man

There are undoubtedly good men and women in the FBI and the DOJ; there just aren't any at the top of either organization.

We were told that Comey was honest and above politics but we know that's a lie.

We were told that Mueller was honest and above politics but we know that's a lie.

We were told that Rosenstein was honest and above politics but we know that's a lie.

We now know that the IG isn't honest either.

Unless first impressions are wrong the IG report seems to be Comey's Clinton email report repackaged.

Both are full of descriptions of criminal acts and/or acts of extreme political bias but both conclude that nothing really bad happened.

Even though procedural norms were violated in favor of Hillary over and over by people who we know loved Hillary and hated Trump the IG tells us that there was no political bias that matters.

It's time to recognize that no senior official in government can be trusted to be working for the people rather than for the elites who now rule us.

Who started the Trade War?

If you listen to the media you probably think that for no good reason Trump is trying to put huge tariff barriers up and is hell bent on wrecking the US economy.

The reality is that Trump is simply responding to a Trade War begun decades ago by countries like Canada and China.

Canada for example has tariffs of nearly 300% on US dairy products to protect their dairy industry. Which is fine so long as fake eyebrow wearing Canadian politicians don't say it's wrong for the US to put a 25% tariff on steel and aluminum from Canada.

Similarly China puts, on average, a 9% tariff, not counting VAT taxes, on products entering China while the US puts an average of less than 2%, and no VAT taxes.

What has been happening is that Americans have been subsidizing foreign companies for decades and Trump is saying that we're not going to continue to do that.  Back when Europe was recovering from their abject failure in WWII and Japan was recovering from the disastrous consequences of its imperialism America helping out made sense.

But it's time for the Europeans to put on their big boy pants and pay their own way.  They don't want to do that since they can't support their massive welfare states without US subsidies.

Think of it this way; you make it possible for the French to take long summer vacations by working hard and buying French goods.  Shouldn't they start paying for their own vacations?

All you need to know about modern "feminism"

You really have to dig hard to find anyone in America today who thinks women are inferior to men or that they should be paid less than men for the same job--well outside of leftist men that is.

Yet the "feminist" movement is a never ending source of vile attacks on men including the soon to be infamous WaPo column entitled "Why Can't We Hate Men?"--which in case you're curious says we should hate men.

In some sense that's not surprising in that modern "feminism" is run by women who hate men or who have been taught to believe that men are the cause of all problems while women are perfect.

But what's really surprising is how modern "feminists" are so eager to advocate things that hurt women.

For example the original feminists recognized abortion for what it is; a way for men to use women as objects without having to worry about being "stuck" with supporting children.  Yet modern "feminists" are not just cool with abortion they extoll it as a positive good.  Even more amazingly they refuse to condemn sex selection abortions even though in almost all cases it's an unborn woman to be who is killed because her mother wants a boy.

Whether you believe in God or evolution or both the reality is that women have been designed to love their babies. Hence it's not surprising when a mother kills her baby there are mental consequences.  And of course we know that having an abortion before having a live birth increases women's chances of getting cancer.

But since abortion is good for men the modern "feminists" embrace it whole heartedly; after all it's much better to be used and thrown away than to be married to a man who will stand with you until you're both old and gray... Not.

Modern "feminists" say that women selling their bodies for cash is great.  Can anyone think of anything more degrading than selling yourself for cash?  Having sex, which should be the most intimate part of ourselves that we only share with someone we love and who loves us, with random drunken, ugly, and uncaring strangers can't be something anyone would like to do. Yet we're told that "sex workers" are really having a wonderful time.  And of course those women's pimps are never mentioned.

Modern "feminists" were really chill with sexual harassment until they thought that they could weaponize it against Trump.  Then they threw a few has beens, but not Bill Clinton, to the wolves and pretended to care.  But given that they are cool with "rough" sex and casual promiscuity it's clear that if Hillary had been elected there would have been no #MeToo moment.

In some sense this isn't really surprising.  After all the key belief of modern "feminism" was that a successful woman was defined by what men thought was important like money and power.

Real feminists extoll the things that make women unique; their ability to have, love, and raise children.  Long after the world has forgotten what jobs men held and what they did the children that women raise will be impacting the world.  That's not to say that men don't share in raising children, at least the men who don't treat women as objects to be used but as people to be loved, but that the woman's role is unique, important, and should be celebrated.  That doesn't mean that women shouldn't be able to take on any job but it means that simply doing the same job a man has done in the past doesn't make a woman's life better.

Modern "feminists" say we should grade the quality of women's lives by how much money they make and how successful they are.  Stay at home mom's are not even tolerated; they are condemned by the same women who declare that promiscuity is great but then hate the men who take up their offer of free consequenceless sex and leave them to either abortion or single motherhood.

From the get go modern "feminism" has been a con run by the evil men who don't really love women to make it easier to have casual irresponsible sex.  The big give away was that Hugh Hefner, a guy who made his money by convincing young women to pose nude, was always a big fan of the modern version of "feminism".

All of modern "feminism" is a huge con to make women easier for men to exploit.  It's time for women to wake up and acknowledge that they've been conned, that happiness never arises from hating anyone, that men aren't all bad or the cause of all evil and that women aren't all perfect.

Life is messy but the world in which men are held accountable and sex requires a ring is a world that is much closer to perfection for women than our modern world. We can fight against women being unfairly discriminated against without having to demand that women accept the priorities defined by what the "feminists" call our patriarchal society.

New Democrats same as the old Democrats

When confronted with the fact that the founder of the Democrat party was a slave owner, that the Democrat party fought the civil war to maintain slavery, that the Democrat party founded the KKK, that the Democrat party passed the Jim Crow laws, and that it was the Democrat party fought school integration modern Democrats amazingly declare that that has nothing to do with them; that the Republicans are really that party.

Of course there is no evidence that the two parties switched positions but then truth has never been an obstacle to Democrats.

But it's easy to see who the modern Democrats really are.  When asked they'll extoll the virtues of FDR.

But FDR is the man who put Japanese Americans into prison camps during WWII because they were Japanese.

Similarly modern Democrats extolled Democrat Senator Byrd a former KKK recruiter.  Now unlike FDR Byrd supposedly apologized for his racism but can you imagine how the modern Democrats would react if a Republican had been a KKK recruiter but apologized?

No wait you don't have to.  Republican Senator Thurmond was a racist who'd apologized. At his retirement dinner Senator Lott made a joke about how it might have been better if Thurmond had won his bid for the presidency in the 1940s.  The modern Democrats were enraged and Lott had to resign as Senate Majority leader.

Byrd and FDR tell us that the new Democrats are the same as the old Democrats; they don't give a hoot about racism except as a weapon they can use against anyone who they don't agree with.

If you doubt that check out how modern Democrats talk to and about Justice Thomas, Ben Carson, and Candice Owens.  No Republican could ever talk about any Black the way the white Democrats talk about people of color who don't toe the white Democrat party line.

More proof Democrats hate people

If the continual push by Democrats to kill off Third World brown babies by abortion and their unremitting support for abortion for any reason at any time during a pregnancy wasn't evidence enough of Democrats loathing for people we now have new proof; California Democrats want to force people to cut their water use by more than 50%.

That's right as of today average water use in CA is about 109 gallons/day/person.  Under laws signed by Democrat Governor Brown Californians are going to have to reduce that to 50 gallons/day/person.

As of now the Water Districts have no way to limit the usage of individuals other than by increasing the cost of water; which means the rich won't be impacted and if the price gets too high the rich can always ship in water from out of state as they did in the last drought. I'm sure that exceptions will eventually be made for those on welfare and illegals.  So only the middle class will suffer.

The reality is that the job of government is to provide clean water to the population not demand that the population live off what the government deigns to give them.

California as more than enough water for everyone if they bothered to collect it and save it.  No new water storage facility has been built in CA since the 1970s.  That's why Arizona did far better in our last drought than CA did; Arizona actually did what it needed to for its people.

Instead of creating more water storage CA Democrats are going to make Californians suffer  to please the ecofreak CA Democrat base who think people are a problem not a blessing.

Building new water storage facilities won't destroy the Earth but because the Democrats who run CA care more about obscure fish than people most Californians will have to give up their lawns, cut back on showers, and not use the bathroom so much.

The Truth about what Democrats care about

Democrats are desperately trying to explain why the explosion of jobs under Trump is bad.

This tells us that Democrats don't really care about people having jobs since if they did they'd be arguing that they could do an even better job than Trump.  But we know that they all agreed with Obama when he said that jobs were just not going to come back so it's unlikely that their objective is full employment.

The reason is obvious. A key component of the Democrat base is people who live on welfare.  If you depend on the government for your next meal you're going to vote for the party which promises to keep the money flowing not the party that wants you to get a job.

Additionally leftists generally don't give their own money to help the poor but they make themselves feel good because they support politicians who will tax others to help the poor. But if there are fewer people without jobs leftists can't feel as good about themselves by increasing taxes on others.

One last thing remember how Democrats told us that the economy was great under Obama even when Black unemployment was nearly twice that of White unemployment?  Given that does it surprise you that Democrats aren't excited about the sudden decrease in Black unemployment?
