Schiller’s List

Once again the curtain at NPR has been pulled back to show the American people who and what our tax dollars have been supporting. If you spend anytime listening to National Public Radio it is easy to see the arrogance and condescension that flows from their hosts and reporters. These self proclaimed “intellectuals” are so busy proving just how much better they are then us “common folks.” For far too many years Public Broadcasting has been run by a bunch of elitists who look down upon people who actually work, and help to pay the bills.

What I see in the James O’Keefe NPR sting video is the results of a culture of hate and arrogance. Mr. Schiller while trying to win the favor of an organization that presents itself as a supporter of The Muslim Brotherhood, shows his true beliefs. He seemed way to comfortable talking to them and was willing to show that he agreed with what he thought would be their beliefs. While declaring that an entire political movement in the US is racist, he demonstrated his racism. He seem to be very happy to join hands and chant “kill the Jews” with those who he thought to have a connection.

Consider for a minute how Mr. Schiller was very willing to climb into the gutter to impress this fake group. He did say one thing that I have to agree with when he talked about a lack of “intellectuals.” I believe that the true statement should have been a lack of intellectual thought at NPR. Is it not a true sign of low intelligence to show such bigotry as shown by this racist person? He claimed that one group was racist (with no proof from NPR, PBS, or any of the other left stream media organization) and then started talking about how the media is controlled by a single racial group. Such unashamed racially motivated speech meant to insight hatred of a group of people shows his lack of critical thinking and demonstrates his engrained hate.

So it seems that on the Schiller list of hate are Christians, Jews, all white people, the TEA Party, Juan Williams, true intellectual thought, and most of Middle America. He also seems to have a problem with the Constitutional right to keep and bear arms, as if that is a surprise from an executive with NPR. It makes me wonder how he feels about the First Amendment. Of course if he supports the ideas of the Muslim Brotherhood, as he says in the video, then maybe he was trying to setup NPR as the official voice of Radical Islam in this country. Then they could change their name to National Palestinian Radio.

Don’t forget that Mr. Schiller was a Senior Vice President at NPR. He was not some local guy from a NPR affiliate speaking, on his own time, to a couple of friends. He was at this meeting as a representative of NPR and as such an agent for that organization. Since NPR receives federal funding he was speaking as a representative of that federally funded organization. His disdain for Middle America and the average citizen of this country should tell you all you need to know about NPR and the people who run it.

When you look at his position within the NPR organization you must consider the belief system of those who he hired and those who hired him. As a manager I know that you can never really know what your employees believe, but I do know that I always try to promote people who share my beliefs and vision. So how many other racist intellectuals are at NPR? How rotten is the entire tree? Doesn’t this whole affair once again bring into focus the true culture at the Center for Public Broadcasting? Is it time to cut these bigots off from the public treasury and sue to get our money back from these hate filled, self-aggrandizing, Progressive Socialist, neo-intellectuals.

The idea that our tax dollars continue to support an organization that would hire an individual who holds the belief system of Mr. Schiller shows the disdain that the Obama Administration, the Progressives, and the Democrat Party has for Middle America. It can be seen that NPR is willing to sell their collective souls for donations from anyone. Their willingness to even meet with a group openly said that they were connected with an organization that promotes genocide and the destruction of a close ally of this country should not be overlooked as many are doing. In this one meeting it is clear that NPR and by association the Corporation for Public Broadcasting are lose cannons and no longer should be support by tax dollars and should be investigated to determine how deep the anti-American and racial hatred goes in these organizations. If those who run NPR think that the American people are stupid, then they need to take a long look at themselves.

As far as the Schillers are concerned, I’m sure that she can return to an organization that shares her views, The New York Times. I’m also sure that Mr. Schiller can find work at any one of the Neo-NAZI organizations, here, or in Europe. I don’t believe the Muslim Brotherhood would hire him, but you never know. They do seem to share the same worldview.

Thoughts from Thursday 2/10/11

For my regular readers:
After an absence I’m attempting to return to a normal post schedule. Last year I had some serious health issues that interfered with my ability to provide regular post. The second half of 2010 was not a good time in my life since I was recovering from complications of surgery. Much of this time required pain medication. I realized that the use of this medication affected my writing ability and I reduced my opinionated posting. So far this year my “day job” has occupied much of my time. My job supports my blogging efforts. I’ve never been under the illusion that any of my blogs would ever show a profit, the balance between the two means that the effort that financially supports my blog and pays the bills must come first. I expect to continue my thoughts from Thursday and additional week posts, but at times my “real job” may call me away. I pray that my health does not cause any more issues for awhile.

Donald Rumsfeld:
The Left Stream Media wagged war on the Bush Administration for 8 years. One target of hate was Donald Rumsfeld. So many lies were told about this man that many that hate him don’t even know the truth or care. I don’t personally know him and know that I will never meet him, but I don’t see him as a saint or a devil. He is a person who served the country with no outwardly signs of corruption. I look forward to reading his new book. I know that those who hate him will not read it. The hate on the left is so irrational that they no longer care about truth. They only care about keeping their hate alive.

The end of the NFL season:
Before this year’s Super Bowl the singing of the National Anthem caused a bit of a controversy. I must say something about this episode: Never try to make the National Anthem your own. After all it is the United States National Anthem. Anyone who is asked to sing this song should not only be honored, but they should take it very seriously. Don’t do anything fancy, just sing it to the best of your ability. I really don’t believe that there was an attempt to be disrespectful or that Christina Aguilera was only attempting to do her best. So there is no reason to say anything more.

Planned Parenthood and under-aged abortions:
After years of the left demanding that parents lose their rights to be informed and involved in their reproductive decisions why would anyone be surprised that employees of Planned Parenthood would not see any problems with under aged abuse of girls. The left has used Planned Parenthood for too many years to promote irresponsibility. With a total lack of respect for human life, it only seems normal that anyone who actively promotes abortion would have no respect for morality.

You can justify almost anything in your mind when you lack basic ethics. So I was not surprised with the tapes of workers at Planned Parenthood were willing to help with the enslavement of under aged girls. As a society we have allowed left wing radicals to redefine ethics and morality. As we run headlong into an amoral society is it time to stop and rethink our direction? Not only is it unthinkable that young girls could be alienated from their parents when it comes to making such life changing decisions concerning sexual relations and birth control, but that a government supported agency’s employee would take away parental rights. While millions of innocent babies have been killed in the name of a judicially declared “right to privacy” those who support this lost of life lose more and more of their humanity. The tragedy affects more than the victims of this sad affair. The victims also include those who counsel women to abort their health babies.

The Democrat Leadership Council sails off into the sunset:
Well last week the DLC announced that they were disbanding. This group that claimed to be the moderate wing of the Democrat Party seems to have lost all support in the party. The only thing that it seems to say to me is that Bill Clinton is ready to retire from politics. The DLC was a creation of President Clinton? I had never heard of it before he needed to convince the American people that he was a centrist.

So with the recent lose to the Republicans and the conservative Tea Party candidates the Democrats believe that the only way to win is to move all the way to the left. The DLC and its claim at Conservative values just don’t fit into the Progressive Democrat Party.

Considering that this week it was announced that the next Democrat Convention has been named “The People’s Convention” they no longer even pretend that they are not a far left political party. It is easier to understand their desire to “spread the wealth” when you consider this choice of names. Just like the People’s Republic of China, and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea I think it is easy to see which path they wish to follow.

Stating the Union 2011

Well the annual political sideshow occurred and there is one thing very obvious: The President can talk for one hour and not really say anything. He is very good at speaking in circles and saying what people want to hear. This is a talent that many politicians have to varied degrees. The President has mastered the technique. But we don’t need a well crafted speech from a talented speaker. We need someone who has real answers. This nation needs solutions, not academic theory. We need direction not division. We need the Progressive movement to stop their revolutionary rhetoric, race baiting, and calls for violence. The President past shows that he is not a supporter of the American system. He does not identify with the medium class. He was raised in a world of privilege. This has created a person who not only does not understand the people he now leads, but he does not understand the basic sensibilities that make the average person loyal to this idea known as The United States of America. Instead of coming out and calling out those in his party and his supporters who tried to take advantage of the deaths of innocent victims.

Listening to Mr. Obama, for me, has always been an exercise in control. His rhetoric is always contradictory. You can not cut spending by increasing spending for one thing. Hearing the word “invest” so many times reminded me of an alcoholic saying: “I’m investing in a case of beer and half gallon of whiskey.” This spending addiction is leaving the nation with a hangover that will last for years. We must not allow these addicts continue to abuse the country. When calling for spending cuts in one breath while talking about “investments” sends the wrong message. The President has said several times that the US is out of money or that we must cut spending while running up record deficits. The problem as I see it has to be at least one of three things: He either does not believe what he is saying, he has no idea how to fix the problem, or he really believes that we can spend our way out of debt.

As those in Congress and the White House were marching us down the road to financial ruin many of the citizens who love our country have sent a message to Washington. I fear that many in the capital are refusing to accept that message. The Democrat minority and the President seem to want to believe that the message was jobs. To be more precise they believe that the message was; that they were not spending enough money to create jobs. They refuse to understand that government spending, especially government spending of borrowed money, does not create prosperity. Government spending can not create the wealth that creates jobs and allows a nation to prosper. Most government jobs only consume resources. Education produces a product, but that product has declined in quality as the federal government has taken more and more control over local schools.

This centralizing of control and power that Washington has seized is the stating of the union. The idea that the individual states that make up the United States of America are slowly being made less important as Washington attempts to take full control is in total disagreement and is destroying the foundation of our country. We as a nation must return to the foundation of our government and expel those from their seats of power who have ignored their oath of office by not defending the civil rights of the citizens of this nation. We must also undo the damage done by those who have attacked our system with lies and distortions. We must have another look at the state of our union. I think I can do it in less than an hour.

Pedro’s State of the Union
My fellow Americans, I come before you to tell you of the state of our union. I must tell you that we face some very challenging times. For too many years the past elected politicians have not only violated the trust of you, the American people, but have endangered the future of our nation and the republic. In misguided by some and intentional efforts by a few our economy has been dealt a crushing blow that we must overcome.

The last 4 years of Democrat control of the House and Senate have shown that, although they calm superior ideas, in practice their ideas were good at crashing the economy and causing misery for all Americans. Their policies have also worked to increase the income divide between the American people and Democrat supporters. This includes out of control spending that out paced the spending of the past. That spending seems to have been diverted into the hands of labor unions and various other friends of those in power. Now we find ourselves even deeper in debt with little to show for the money spent.

The country still faces the issues caused by years of neglect at our southern border. Since the last illegal amnesty in 1986 a lack of border and workplace enforcement has created the situation of millions that received amnesty in the past and those who illegally entered the country to demand another round of blanket forgiveness. Elected officials continue to sell out their offices to the “cheap” labor advocates and those who are willing to sell out this country. This, in my opinion, means that the government has betrayed our country.

The betrayal goes farther than many Americans are willing to admit. The depth of this treachery extends to the passage of unconstitutional laws with no idea of the content. Many have not only ignored their oath of office but have openly admitted that they are not concerned about their duty under the Constitution. This type of disloyalty to their sworn pledge has pushed this nation further away from our historic liberties even closer to tyranny. As more individuals stand up for the rights that are protected by the foundation of our government, we see even more direct attacks on the founders and our founding principles.

But not all is lost. The American people are beginning to awaken. The elections of last year have shown that many citizens are beginning to see the duplicity and betrayal that is endangering our way of life. Even though many of the “spin doctors” (liars) that work to influence those in power, many of the newly elected member of Congress understand and are loyal to the country. They know that elected governments are temporary and left undefended the nation will be the same.

But we must do our part. We must educate our fellow Americans to the truth of past. We must continue to communicate with the members of Congress and remind them of their responsibilities to the people of this nation and their oath to defend the Constitution. Our duty is to continue to defend our rights and to oppose all enemies who would redefine or distort the meaning of those rights.
