Come out and meet this century's Winston Churchill -- and the dynamic duo for a little levity. Very pleased. My first piece hits Big Hollywood today ........... and it's the featured article. Woo hoo. If you missed Moore's no-show on my radio segment last week (after his people dogged me for it), listen here, it's a hoot. Here's an excerpt of my piece at Big Hollywood: In Capitalism: A Love Story, Moore describes America has having been founded on genocide and having gotten rich on the backs of slaves. This is egregiously false. Ayn Rand explained the truth: “Capitalism cannot work with slave labor. It was the agrarian, feudal South that maintained slavery. It was the industrial, capitalistic North that wiped it out—as capitalism wiped out slavery and serfdom in the whole civilized world of the nineteenth century.” Moore kicks off his movie equating America to ancient Rome, running stock footage of Rome from bad B-movies, and draws all the wrong conclusions. Rome grew its greatest in its period of freedom as a republic, and collapsed after it morphed into an empire with the uncontrolled growth of government controls, including welfare state measures – bread and circuses. The growth of taxation and government control destroyed the Roman economy and caused the collapse of Rome – yet more taxes and government control are the very things that this fat bastard is advocating. He mocks America’s predominance in the auto industry by saying that we eliminated our competition, Germany and Japan, when in fact we saved the world from Germany and Japan not in order to destroy their auto industry but to protect the world from the tyranny and darkness they represented. Moore mentions that we destroyed Japan and Germany and claims that that’s why our auto industry became number one, but he neglects to explain why we destroyed Japan and Germany. And he says nothing about how we rebuilt Japan and Germany. In fact, we made it safe for Germany and Japan to dominatethe auto industry. He holds Jimmy Carter up as the ideal president and holds Ronald Reagan responsible for our economic woes. Yes, the Jimmy Carter era of runaway inflation, 21% interest rates (up from the decades-long standard of low single-digit rates) is Moore’s idea of heaven. Worse still, he runs footage of Carter admonishing the American people for being too materialistic. I kid you not. It’s obvious that Michael Moore believes he is talking to idiots who have absolutely no concept of history or of reality. His entire movie is so fundamentally flawed that I actually thought that perhaps it was one big satirical piece, an outrageous parody. Moore devotes a large portion of the film to a group of protesters that won’t leave a factory that was closed. He has the audacity to bark about people power, and about how people power is all that really counts, while simultaneously millions (literally) are taking to the streets in the form of tea parties and town hall meetings in protest against big government, but about that he says nothing at all. He praises a member of Congress for encouraging open rebellion on the floor of the House against the Bush bailout. Would he encourage the same under Obama? Read the whole thing ...................it's a Geller trifecta today at Breitbart: I expose the whole ugly hot mess over at Big Journalism today: Read it all: America’s Day of Wreckoning — the Socialist Putsch Comes to Washington Here's an excerpt ................ Members of the Congressional Black Caucus said that racial epithets were hurled at them Saturday by angry protesters who had gathered at the Capitol to protest health-care legislation, and one congressman said he was spit upon. The most high-profile openly gay congressman, Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.), was heckled with anti-gay chants. Color me skeptical. I am not sure why the Congressional Black Caucus deliberately chose to walk through the crowd as they shouted “kill the bill,” but it sure sounded like a set-up. And if someone had shouted something so grotesque, he was either a plant, an infiltrator, or a freak who attached himself to a group that wants no part of him. If it did happen, this shout in no way reflected the millions of capitalist Americans standing up for their country. I have been to enough of these protests to know. These protesters are the salt of the earth. The best of America, our salvation — if that salvation is to be had. The media reacted like vampires to human blood, going into a frenzy to use the shout to discredit the whole movement. And the lefty blogs like the Huffington Post (headquarters for Jew-hating incitement to genocide) was epileptic with joy. We’ve been down this road before with the Puff Ho; they have concocted slanders against the tea parties before (watch the Atlas vlog in which I expose them here.) Read the whole thing and then SIGN THE PLEDGE TO REPEAL. Check out my latest piece over at Big Government, Census Stalkers: And so census goons are now prying into my private life. Welcome to Oganda – America dominated by Obama Propaganda. I suspect there is more in the offing. I am not a member of the Libertarian party, nor do I back their positions on drugs, foreign policy and the like, but I agree with the statement of their chairman, William Redpath, that “the federal government’s current census procedures are unconstitutional, unnecessary, and too expensive.” Redpath pointed out that “the census is constitutionally limited to collecting only onepiece of information about each residence: the number of persons living in it.” Redpath made a vital recommendation: “We urge Congress to change the census laws to comply with this constitutional limitation.” I certainly agree with that. And he added: The U.S. Constitution empowers Congress to provide for a census in order to apportion Representatives correctly. The Constitution does not empower Congress to use a census for any other purpose. There is no need for Congress to collect additional information such as names, races, ages, sexes, or home ownership status. Unfortunately, the federal government wants to use the additional information to fine-tune its control over the lives and money of the American people. Meanwhile, American citizens are not taking this lying down. One reader of my blog, AtlasShrugs.com, was selected (that is, compelled) to complete the insidiously intrusive “American Community Survey.” After not answering some of the question, this reader received a call from the Census Bureau, and explains: “Fact is that the Bureau didn’t like the fact that I would not reveal racial issues, health issues,health insurance, the plumbing in my home, details of employment, what transportation I use, marital history, taxes I pay, my phone service, education and many other prying questions found in this packet.” Another reader sent me a copy of the Census form that he sent back. He answered all the questions that he is actually required by law to answer; over the rest, he wrote: “Go pound sand.” That’s the free American spirit, the spirit of the Boston Tea Party, of those who protested against the Stamp Act. American must protest the partisan appropriation and intrusive data-gathering of Census 2010. Obama is once again overstepping his Constitutional bounds. Free citizens must call him on it. GO! Read it all. As America holds her breath, gripped by the mind-numbing realization that the government by the people, for the people, of the people, may very well be irrevocably broken, the focus is on libeling, slandering and destroying the millions of Americans who stand against this socialist putsch. The American people are overwhelmingly against this government takeover of 20% of the economy. Tens of thousands took to the great lawn yesterday after a year of similar peaceful actions to right a government gone off the rails. The peaceful, patriotic millions who marched over the course of the year were virtually ignored by the media and certainly ignored by the President. Big media only deemed fit to cover the people's revolution to libel and sexually smear them ("tea baggers"). This campaign of destruction culminated yesterday when a specious charge was made that a protester shouted "ni**er" at the Congressional Black Caucus. Color me skeptical. I am not sure why the Black Congressional Caucus deliberately chose to walk through the crowd as they shouted "kill the bill," but it sure sounds like a set-up. And if someone shouted something so grotesque, it was either a plant, an infiltrator, or a freak who attached himself to a group that wants no part of him. It in no way reflects the millions of capitalist Americans standing up for their country. I have been to enough of these protests to know. These protesters are the salt of the earth. The best of America, our salvation, if it is to be had. The Washington Post: “Members of the Congressional Black Caucus said that racial epithets were hurled at them Saturday by angry protesters who had gathered at the Capitol to protest health-care legislation, and one congressman said he was spit upon. The most high-profile openly gay congressman, Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.), was heckled with anti-gay chants.” The media is frenzied, like vampires to human blood. And the lefty blogs like the Puff Ho (HQ for Jew-hating incitement to genocide) is epileptic with joy. We've been down this road before with the Puff Ho; they have concocted slander against the tea parties before (watch that Atlas vlog here). What it is, is a degenerate tactic to drive the national dialogue away from what is really important (the rout) to a mendacious discussion about the "racist," "homophobic," "tea baggers." Janeane Garofalo laid out this strategy in April 2009 when she said that the tea partiers were "a bunch of teabagging rednecks," adding that "this is about hating a black man in the White House. This is racism straight up." Let's go to the videotape: As for Barney Frank alleging that he was called a faggot -- I prefer to call him what he really is, a liar. Where is his outrage at the term "tea bagger"? Is it a coincidence that after a year of millions marching against this ugly leftist power grab, that on the day before the vote both racist and homophobic slurs were allegedly hurled? Hmmmmmmmmm. Those of us battling the left are used to the libel and slander directed towards us as a means to eliminate the truth of our message, by destroying our credibility. The daily drumbeat of lies and smear is so relentless that it has lost its sting. It's like water off a duck's back. But for the first time, America is getting a taste of it. They are being smeared and slandered. And the silver lining here is that the American people will never trust the democrats or big media again. Big media will go down in flames as a result of this. Even when I went searching for a picture of the Capitol lawn yesterday, I could only find images on twitpic and the blogs. The only thing that came up for DC protest on yahoo was the anti-war protest (here). That's how corrupt and criminal the media is. If the putsch is successful, we will remember: Fox News reports: Unlike the Democrats’ original plan, this rule will not utilize the “deem and pass” method on the Senate bill. While the rule handles BOTH packages, it provides for separate debate and votes on both measures. Then there will be a procedural vote, called “Moving the Previous Question.” Ignore this. After that, there will be a vote on the rule.Probably not before 4 pm. If the House doesn’t approve the rule, it can’t advance to the underlying issues at hand. UPDATE: Well said by a Lucianne blogger (hat tip Katherine) "America is now occupied by a hostile foreign power. This power rejects the freedoms and protections enumerated in our Constitution, and codified in the Bill of Rights. It rejects the laws, rules, customs and traditions of the United States. It rejects the very principles underlying our nation's founding. It assails our natural rights, while denying they exist. It rejects any need for the consent of the governed. It spits in the face of the will of the people. It recognizes no limitations on its authority to abuse the American citizen. This is not representative government. This is Tyranny. UPDATE: 2pm: Nancy Pelosi takes a page from the agitators of the Black Congressional Caucus and unnecessarily walks through the anti-demcare protesters with a giant gavel, trying to incite those great Americans. It was of course, without incident. The Demo-rats are ugly, ugly demagogues. Video to follow. IsraelNN.com) Close to 200 people converged on the Gush Etzion intersection on Saturday night to protest what they called the “Obama Intifada.” The ongoing Arab violence, which has seen a sharp increase in rock-throwings and even live-fire attacks on Israeli vehicles over the past week, continued Sunday morning with riots near Tekoa and an attempted stabbing east of Shechem. The Gush Etzion demonstrators held signs reading, "Crush the Obama intifada! No more rock-throwing! Stop the building freeze against the Jews." Among the public figures who arrived and spoke at the Saturday night protest were Rabbis Dov Lior, Gideon Perl, Yosef Tzvi Rimon, and Yaron Durani; Rabbi Avi Weiss from New York, columnist Dr. Amiel Ungar, Atty. Elyakim Haetzni, Efrat Mayor Oded Revivi, and Kiryat Arba Mayor Malachi Levinger. In addition, a woman from Tekoa who was wounded by Arab rock-throwing last week – one of several local residents to be similarly attacked - was also present. She was released from the hospital on Friday after undergoing an operation on her arm. All the speakers delivered a similar message: “We will not remain quiet as stones are hurled at Jews… Prime Minister Netanyahu, stand firm! Do not cave in to Barack Hussein Obama! The people of Israel are strong and will remain strong even if the US imposes sanctions against Israel.” A woman from N’vei Daniel spoke about her experience of a few days ago: “Some Arabs threw rocks at my car as I was on my way back from work in Tekoa… One Arab threw a rock at my windshield and smashed it; I started to drive away, but then I decided I was not running away, so I stopped and parked my car across the middle of the road to block it [until the army arrived]. I started to yell at them in Hebrew, and I called at the one who threw the rock to come down towards me and not be a coward and run away; of course, he did not come…” She then said that she feels anger towards the government for not providing her with minimal security in her own country, and towards the Jews who support Obama and particularly those in the United States such as David Axelrod, Thomas Friedman and Rahm Emanuel, “who have forgotten what it is to be Jewish. Perhaps it would be better for us if Obama would take a few non-Jewish advisors…” Kiryat Arba/Hevron Chief Rabbi Lior said, “We demand that the government do something effective against the barbarians that are again threatening our movement on the roads and our quiet lives. They’re ambushing Jews all over the country. We have no doubt that they are raising their heads because of signs of weakness on behalf of the leadership of the Nation of Israel… Maimonides explained in his Epistle to the Jews of Yemen who were forced to convert to Islam that the character of Arabs is that when you look out for their good, in return, they always give you war. When we tell the Arab, ‘Come, I want to help you and see to your needs,’ he doesn’t look at us like gentlemen. He sees weakness and then the wolf shows what he can do.”
