If The Old Media Were Still Relevant
With Mitt Romney, former governor of Massachusetts, now all but assured the GOP’s nomination for the Presidency, the left has spent no time at all doing what they do best. What they do best is distract. With the nation teetering on the brink of disaster, an economy that has not produced any net jobs since the President won election, a bloated government spending trillions of dollars more than it brings in and liberalism basically crushing the American dream, the left is interested in is whether or not they can make Mr. Romney look substantially worse than the failure currently residing in the White House. Kicking off their assault on Mitt Romney, this week the left dug deep into Romney’s past to dredge up recollections that he once picked on, call it bullied, a fellow student. And if that was not terrible enough, add to the meme the slap in the face that the fellow student may have been gay. Seriously? That’s the narrative that is supposed to make Mitt Romney into Satan himself and so toxic that no one would ever dare vote for him? Forget the fact that the family of this former “victim” of Mitt Romney is dead and there appears to be no one in the family who can corroborate the claim [1]. Ok, I get it. The President’s record is so horrid that this is the tactic his minions have to adopt. But they are no doubt upset at how quickly their political opponents turned the issue around on them. Breitbart’s Huge Journalism website, for example, quickly flipped the issue around and produced evidence by the President’s own hand that he once shoved a girl [2] because he was sick of being taunted about how he was her boyfriend. Yes, the future President assaulted a girl, I repeat, a girl, because he was worried of getting cooties? Now, as much as the ancient media was ready and willing to run with the tale about Mitt Romney to show how evil and vile he is, they have not been so quick to divulge Obama’s previous brush with being a bully himself. So, since the ancient media apparently needs help being honest and balanced, I have prepared a cheat sheet for you guys and gals. What follows is a set of questions you can question of President Obama during his next news conference. Feel free to use all of these: 1. “Mr. President – was your bullying of the girl you admitted to in your book based in any way on race? Sure she was black, but did you reckon she was not black enough?” 2. “Mr. President – rumor has it that the girl you admitted to bullying was a lesbian. Were you engaging in a despise crime when you shoved her?” 3. “Mr. President – do you find it simpler to be a bully after you have smoked marijuana or snorted cocaine?” 4. “Mr. President – is your propensity to bully girls because you see them as inferior to you?” 5. “Mr. President – have you ever paid restitution for the emotional distress to the girl you bullied?” 6. “Mr. President – you said that the girl you shoved was ‘plump’. Are you saying that you bullied her because she was stout?” 7. “Mr. President – was your bullying of this girl named Coretta in any way related to her unwillingness to convert to Islam or to wear a hijab?” 8. “Mr. President – how many other girls have you beat up in your lifetime?” Now, from my standpoint these questions are all meant in jest. They are but about as serious and relevant as anything the ancient media has come up with in regards to Mitt Romney this week. And if Mitt Romney is going to get grilled about things he is accused of doing in high school, silly things a lot of people do in high school, then we have to hold the President to that same standard. Let me know, ancient media, when you choose to step up to the plate on this one.

Fisker Automotive Failure
“This is seed money that will return back to the American consumer in billions and billions and billions of dollars in excellent new jobs.” Vice President Joe Biden made that bold statement in 2009 when he announced more than half a billion dollars in a taxpayer-backed loan to Fisker Automotive . The green energy car company makes hybrid vehicles. The company currently employs several hundred workers. At its plant in Finland . Making a $100,000 luxury sports car . Biden made his announcement at a Delaware plant that was closed in 2009 as part of the General Motors bankruptcy . Fisker promised to build a more affordable sedan ( here & here ) at the plant. If a $50,000 price tag is considered affordable. The company promised the plant would be in full production this year and would turn out 100,000 cars annually. We visited the plant days ago. Just after it reportedly laid-off about a dozen employees leaving only a handful of workers. We met with a representative who refused to answer our questions in a parking lot with only four cars. Taxpayers will be stuck with the bill — up to half a billion dollars — if Fisker Automotive fails. It’s hard to know how the company will survive if it isn’t building — let alone selling — cars.

Dan Savage Bombs while Bullying Christians and Bashing the Bible
Gay anti-bullying spokesperson, Dan Savage, belittled, berated and bullied Christians the Bible and the Pope while addressing 3,000 high school students at a school journalism convention in Seattle, organized by the National Scholastic Press Association. Savage, a militant high profile gay activist who writes graphic sex columns tried to humiliate the Christian kids but went away as a bully himself, in a terrible show of self-indulgent hedonism. He is the head of the ‘It Gets Better Project,’ an activist group that is supposed to help gays make the transition out of the straight life into the wonderful courageous new world of the gay life. Apparently he sees himself as the guardian angel of those whose feelings may have been hurt or who are depressed because of the difficulties involved with the transition out of the world of the straights. While most people learn who they are as they mature and find their place in society, the gays need special help to get into their small sphere and they also need special laws and alerts for the use of non-politically right catch words and phrases that signal that they are being bullied. It is sensitivity training, courses in tippy toeing, self-esteem tripe and psychological bolstering all rolled into one. But apparently Savage can’t seem to fulfill his task without belittling others whose view of the gay life is not so glowing. He referred to Christians as pansy a**** as more than a hundred students along with their advisors left the conference in protest. He issued a halfhearted apology sometime later and then proceeded to his next venue where the rhetoric was repeated in all of its sorted glory. He proved to the world yet once again that those who espouse tolerance have a very high tolerance for their own brand of brow beating, bullying and blatant hypocrisy. While not really quoting chapter and verse of the bible he did mention the three most well-known books of the bible that decry the homosexual lifestyle, Leviticus, Timothy and Romans. He boasted that we have learned to ignore the bull**** in the bible and we should also learn to ignore the bible’s other prohibitions on shellfish, slavery, dinner, farming, virginity and masturbation. The shotgun approach to blasting the bible never works because the scoffers rarely if ever know the dispensations or the divisions of the scripture. Naturally speakers like Savage depend on the fact that their listeners don’t know these subtle, but extremely vital differences. In a post on May 1st Savage specifically blasted the practice of Christians who quote from Leviticus because it says homosexual activity is an ‘abomination.’ Declaring that the bible refers to all Ancient Testament moral, ceremonial or hygienic prohibitions as also being abominations is a very significant error. Dr. Michael Brown of the much loved “Question Dr. Brown” series addresses that error in his ‘Voice of Revolution’ website, May 3, 2012. Dr. Brown says, “Really, within Leviticus, only homosexual practice is singled out as an abomination, but elsewhere, the people of Israel are told that they should not eat shellfish (see Leviticus 11, although the word abomination is not used there)…” Brown also said, “When it comes to homosexual practice, not only is it the only sinful action singled out in Leviticus as an abomination, but it is part of a list of universal moral prohibitions, including incest and other forbidden sexual acts. We know this because the chapter states that the Lord judged the pagan nations for these very acts, and if acts were incorrect for idol-worshiping pagans, and they were incorrect for the people of Israel (see Leviticus 18:24-30). And when we see that the prohibition against homosexual practice is reiterated in the New Testament, the case is settled for those who accept the Bible as God’s Word.” As expected the mainstream media mostly passed over the details of this incident, but the conservative media has been generous, providing both details and follow ups. The one aspect of the event that seemed to have escaped the notice of all, was the fact that while hundreds of students walked out of the conference, many more stayed – and applauded Savage’s unlearned, ill-informed and anti-Christian remarks. Why were students cheering and applauding Dan Savage’s outbursts of hatred and error even while they were present to learn more about how to be more tolerant? This is a question that virtually no commentator has questioned. This is also the question that is too simple to answer. Our children are being taught a world view that denies absolutes. Situation ethics, personally derived morality and the view that all truth is subjective and relative, is at the heart of today’s academic system. High school and college level instruction holds that there are no more absolutes; there isn’t just black and white, but many shades of gray. Philosophic postulation is only allowed to question questions, no one is allowed an authoritarian platform on which to declare an actual answer. If philosophy were really color; where would this thinking end? Question the artist to believe that there is only gray and they will laugh at you. They depend on the absolutes of black and white in their art. All the colors are derived from primaries; there are no shades of purple without red and blue. But why distress the darlings with something that would only get them scorned or called a pansy. Even as teachers hail the individualism that produced today’s youth heroes and examples like Steve Jobs, any defiance against the rap of the nebulous nascent nonsense is met with wrath and rejection. Again this is no more than unseen and really un-acknowledged hypocrisy. The only remaining barrier to the emergence of today’s reprobation and moral decline is the bible. It is quick becoming the last line of defense, but a formidable defense it is. Bolstered by the Prez’s unprecedented stand with the homosexual agenda the gays have only this one immovable wall to hurdle. Will they succeed? Not a chance. Oddly, it is not some imaginary battle where excellent wins over evil but the prophetic says that evil under the banner of PC — (Political Correctness) and morality derived from — PCC (Pop Culture Consensus) will flourish as this generation progresses. Not only does the bible promise that even though evil will have its day, prophetically speaking that evil will suddenly be met face to face by the returning Lord Jesus Christ who will at his appearance dispel all the questions. When those with a world view look up to see him coming in power they will not call upon their college professors, scientists, politicians or peers to help them to cope with the events that follow. What they will do, is flee to the mountains, rocks and dens and question the rocks to hide them from the face of him who returns in resplendent glory and power. (Rev 6: 16) It is more than a curiosity that as an appendage to one of the most vital second coming passages in the entire bible called the ‘Olivet Discourse,’ Jesus re-affirmed that of all the words a man may take to heart, only his words will be left standing in the end, and those who stand on these words will be standing there with him alive and well at his second coming. “Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.” (Mt 24: 35) As for those kids in Seattle who walked out of the school I can say I wouldn’t mind having any number of them attending my church. I would venture to say their parents must be proud. Not only are they the jewels of heaven but they are the best of America and I would bet there are a few million Americans who would agree with me.
