Getting Out the Felon Vote

By leeduigon

We told you pushing “democracy” in a country which is by law a republic leads to mischief.

Sometime today, Kentucky’s new Democrat governor, citing his “faith”–faith in what, we are not told, is expected to sign an executive order restoring voting rights to more than 100,000 “non-violent” felons (https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/kentucky-gov-beshear-restore-voting-rights-over-100-000-former-n1099356) who have served their sentences.

“They deserve (?) the right to participate in our great *d*e*m*o*c*r*a*c*y,” says Gov. Andy Beshear.

Individual states have long had the authority to restore voting rights to convicted felons who have served their time in jail. What’s a little larceny, fraud, drug-peddling, identity theft, operating a stolen car ring, or any of those other crimes in which the victim doesn’t actually get his throat cut?

And of course this move couldn’t possibly have anything to do with next year’s national elections–perish the thought.

It’s a little unsettling, though, to think Kentucky has 100,000-plus ex-felons in the first place. With another quarter-million or so still behind bars. Can’t people behave themselves?

Running for the Democrat presidential nomination, weird Bernie Sanders wants to go Beshear one better and allow felons to vote while still in jail. Anything for democracy! Wheel those voting machines into the prison cafeteria!

Well, if crooks can run for office and serve in government, they might as well be voting, too.

UK Labour Party: Socialism on Steroids

By leeduigon

See the source image

It’s really not hard to imagine this happening here. In fact, it’s quite easy to imagine this same bilge being spouted by any Democrat presidential candidate.

British Labour Party bigwig John McDonnell, pushing for a Labour majority in Parliament, says a Labour government will ban companies from the London Stock Exchange for “failing to act on Climate Change” (https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/11/20/climate-hysteria-labour-ban-companies-stock-exchange-failing-act-climate-change/). We are free to wonder what “action” would meet with his approval.

But he doesn’t want to stop at letting the government decide who can buy and sell stocks and who can’t. He’s also taking aim at a massive “redistribution” scheme which would supposedly do away with “billionaires.”

“No one needs or deserves that much money. It is obscene,” he says. Deserves? The government’s going to decide how rich you’re allowed to be?

Well, yeah–McDonnell has another plan to give the government the authority to fix wages and salaries. You’ll earn no more than the government thinks you should earn.

Who does he think he is–Bernie Sanders? Elizabeth Warren? Can anyone explain the difference between them and him? Can anyone even see the difference?

Freedom is fragile, and there’s always someone eager to take it away from others. Politics is one of Original Sin’s favorite playgrounds.

Beware all that free stuff held out to you by socialism. It comes with a very high price tag.

Bernie Sanders Digs Red China

By leeduigon

See the source image

Crazy Bernie’s probably past his sell-by date, but he’s still in there babbling (https://www.breitbart.com/clips/2019/08/27/sanders-china-has-made-more-progress-addressing-extreme-poverty-than-anyone-else-sadly-theyre-more-authoritarian/).

He grants it’s sad that the communist dictatorship is becoming “more authoritarian,” and they really shouldn’t strip the people of Hong Kong of their rights–but in defense of the regime, said the Democrat presidential wannabe, they have “made more progress in addressing extreme poverty than any country in the history of civilization.”

Uh… could that be because they had tons and tons of extreme poverty to start with, and just about any change would’ve been for the better? Except for some of those changes put in by dear old Mao Tse-tung, which killed at least 40 million of his defenseless countrymen. Like, it’s hard to lift Americans out of poverty because American poverty, compared to poverty in China or throughout the Third World, is almost wealth.

Yes, this is the same loon who once said Venezuela is “living the American dream” better than America.

And he’s got four houses now. The Monopoly game that is America has been very, very good to him.

‘Bernie: If You’re White, You Don’t Know What It’s Like to be Poor’ (2016)

By leeduigon

He’s going to eat someone, isn’t he?

Three years have gone by, and their campaign rhetoric hasn’t changed a bit.

https://leeduigon.com/2016/03/24/bernie-if-youre-white-you-dont-know-what-its-like-to-be-poor/

One thing I know for sure: no one comes home poor from Capitol Hill.

Are you proud that one of our country’s two major political parties has nothing better to offer than class warfare and racial animosity, artificially stoked up for their own political advantage?

I’m not.

Sorry, No Nooze Today

By leeduigon

Image result for Sick Dog

I can breathe now, so I thought I might report some nooze.

On second thought, uh-uh.

I mean, really! I spend three minutes on the Drudge Report and it’s all “Sex Robot Apocalypse,” Bernie Sanders is gonna be president, and the governor of the failed state of California predicting the total demise of the Republican Party as Democrats take over complete control of America and turn it into a Third World basket case…

I’m just not up for it. I’m not even sure that any of this is “news” as I’ve always thought the word meant. That’s why I type it as “nooze.”

I’ll be taking hymn requests, though.

Sanders: Let Jailbirds Vote from Prison!

By leeduigon

See the source image

Are you thinking of sitting out the 2020 presidential election, or quixotically voting for some third-party candidate who has literally zero chance of winning?

Don’t!

The latest Far Left Crazy offering from the Democrat Party, trotted out by socialist Bernie Sanders at a CNN “town hall” this week, is a scheme to let incarcerated felons vote–from prison (https://dailycaller.com/2019/04/23/bernie-says-incarcerated-felons-right-to-vote/). Even the Boston Marathon bomber, he said.

Heck, just cause you’ve made war on society–say, by committing murder, armed robbery, rape, fraud, whatever–shouldn’t mean you don’t get to have a say in who governs that society. Voting, says this Democrat, is an “inherent American right” which apparently you never lose. The Democrat Party has a long history of racking up the votes of dead people, or even people who’ve never existed. And you know they see to it that illegal aliens vote, too.

Asked if she agreed with Bernie’s idea, another Democrat presidential wannabe, Kamala Harris, answered as she always does, “I think we should have a conversation” about that.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics, there are currently more than 2 million adults in America sitting in prison for assorted serious crimes. Why, that’s 2 million votes! Votes to be courted. Votes to be wooed. Votes to be won!

“If you elect me president, I’ll make sure that armed robbery is downgraded to a misdemeanor with no prison time at all…” Go ahead–explain how this is anything but crazy.

The Democrat Party, lawless and irrational, has become an existential threat to the survival of our country as a free republic. We will not be safe until it is put out of business. Permanently.

Do You Have to Agree with Bernie, to Ace the SAT?

By leeduigon

See the source image

Don’t forget to agree with him when you take your SAT

The New Hampshire Dept. of Education has added a “pro-Bernie Sanders essay question” to this year’s Scholastic Aptitude Test, which 13,000 students have taken so far (https://godfatherpolitics.com/new-hampshire-dept-of-education-indoctrinating-students-with-bernie-sanders-praise-on-sat-tests/).

Sanders, an avowed socialist, is a leading contender for next year’s Democrat presidential nomination. Students were asked to “read and process” an op-ed he wrote in 2014 and tell “whether or not the author made a persuadable argument,” explained one of the state’s education commissars. Oops. I mean commissioner.

Here’s a quote from Sanders’ op-ed: “[W]ealthy special interests who want to privatize or dismember virtually every function the government now performs… to make billions in profits out of these services.” (Question: why can’t the government run them efficiently and profitably?)

We are not told what a student has to say in his essay, to get a good grade and qualify for further indoctrination in college… but I think we can guess it’d be something like this.

“Wow! He is like so right on! There’s nothing the private sector can do that government can’t do better, and prophits, like, dude, they are just so icky and bad! I hate prophits! I love the government! Bernie for president!”

Definitely ready for college.

Introducing a New Constitutional Amendment… for ‘Fair Elections’

By leeduigon

See the source image

Democrat Senators Elizabeth Warren (Massachusetts) and Bernie Sanders (Vermont) have proposed a new Constitutional amendment “to guarantee fair elections.”

The draft of the amendment says: “If there is a consensus among prominent news media personalities, academics, and Hollywood celebrities that the American electorate made an error in their choice for president, the election shall be ruled void, the elected candidate shall be removed from office, and the losing candidate shall be installed in his or her or xer place.”

“They’re calling it ‘the Do-Over Amendment,'” Sanders said, “but that’s wrong because the election won’t be done over: the losing candidate will simply be declared the winner and take office as such. It’s not like the country will turn over and capsize. We just want to ensure that the right people get elected.”

“Wahoo!” added Sen. Warren. “I think I’m gonna get me another beer.”

The official title of the measure is “the Fair and Honest Elections Amendment.” So far, every Democrat in America has endorsed it, along with the editorial staffs of The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Daily Worker. Actor Alec Baldwin has promised “117 percent support from the creative community.” The National Education Assn. is also on board, and first-term Representative and former bartender Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has commented, “Like, wow!”

Funding has been promised by George Soros’ Foundation for Pure Evil.

Zillionaire Comedian: ‘Say Yes to Socialism’

By leeduigon

Image result for images of jim carrey liar, liar movie

You really have to wonder about the mental state of someone who says we have to dump the economic system that has made America the freest and most prosperous country in world history and take up socialism instead. But that’s what alleged comedian Jim Carrey told a Democrat audience last month on Bill Maher’s TV show (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2018/09/10/jim-carrey-tells-democrats-we-have-say-yes-socialism/?utm_term=.fa6462afd145). As reported by the Democrat house organ, The Washington Post.

“We have to say yes to socialism,” said the star of Liar, Liar. “We have to stop apologizing,” he counseled Democrats. Go all out for socialism, he said, because socialism will give the American people “a government that cares about them.”

We don’t need no stinkin’ Constitution.

Socialist/Democrat icon Bernie Sanders defines socialism as a form of government in which the government, for all practical purposes, owns all the goods and services produced in the country and decides how to distribute their rewards.

He didn’t say anything about socialist countries running out of food, toilet paper, and free speech.

Yo, Jimbo–name a multi-millionaire comedian who lives and works in Venezuela, Cuba, or North Korea.

Is it even necessary to say that big, swollen, massive government fails catastrophically wherever it exists? Do Democrats think the Soviet Union failed because they didn’t serve enough petit-fours on bridge night in the gulags?

Please, please, please–never again let this party take power in America.

Because you’ll be awfully sorry if you do.
