WingNutDaily's Idiotic Article of the Day

[Requia ☣]

While it may be an overstatement to compare Obama with Hitler, it is even more far-fetched to characterize his political opponents as Nazis and fascists because they very clearly want to limit the size and scope of government – preferring that people be free to govern themselves to the greatest extent possible.

Obama has power. His opponents, for the most part, do not. Furthermore, Obama seeks to use his power to impose policies that have, like it or not, a striking resemblance to those Hitler promoted in the 1930s.

Like what?

   * Abortion

   * Infanticide

   * Government deciding life-and-death issues in dispensing medical care for both older people and those with serious illnesses;

   * Unfair treatment of Jews, in Obama's case, with regard to Middle East conflict;

   * So-called public-private partnerships – blurring the line between government responsibilities and the private sector. This is one of the definitions of fascism;

   * Picking winners and losers among corporations and the dispensing of government favors and punishments to them;

   * Hiring and firing of supposedly private corporation executives;

   * Attacking free expression;

   * Secrecy

   * Using taxpayer funds for the hiring of political partisans to "organize" communities and sign up new voters;

   * Demonizing political opponents;

   * Encouraging citizens to "rat out" friends, family members and others who oppose his policies;

   * Keeping tabs on political opponents;

   * Filling top government posts with like-minded political extremists who would normally be regarded as internal security threats;

   * Ignoring the Constitution;

   * Blaming his predecessor and the fundamentals of the American political and economic system for all the problems besetting the country;

I mean, I could go on and on. George W. Bush and other predecessors in the White House had their faults. Some of them did terrible things, showed incredibly bad judgment, made horrible mistakes. But I can think of no precedent for someone in the White House doing all of the above at once – all of which bear striking parallels to the leadership of infamous fascists such as Benito Mussolini and Hitler.

Bolded for everything republicans did or tried to do first.  'blaming his predecessor' I'll give them, since thats probably older than writing.

OBAMA IS EXACTLY LIKE OJ!!!

http://www.wnd.com/?pageId=108703

Football legend and actor O.J. Simpson was a truly beloved American icon. The quintessential American success story, he projected an amicable, wholesome, larger-than-life figure. His triumphs were even more noteworthy because he was a black man who had risen to fame and fortune during the Civil Rights Movement era.

    In 1995, Simpson was put on trial for the murders of Nicole Brown (his second ex-wife) and a male friend. As a result, authorities and the press were able to delve into his affairs as no one had previously done. Only then did Americans learn that he was a beast and a brute, an obsessively controlling, chronic wife beater, emotional abuser and philanderer. In short, he was a pathological narcissist for whom whimsy, pleasure and image were paramount. Worse, his behavior had been validated and reinforced by the fact that he had been catered to by those around him, personally and professionally, for decades. After beating the murder rap, Simpson continued to manipulate and bully those around him. Twelve years later, his capricious conduct earned him a lengthy prison sentence for numerous firearms charges, robbery, burglary, assault and kidnapping.

    Many Americans, and even a few trained in behavioral science, have identified President Obama as a deeply pathological narcissist. He has also managed to masterfully control his environment. While his detractors contend that his façade has been maintained by a complicit press, this may only be partially true. According to experts, the profoundly narcissistic frequently astonish casual observers when the extent of control they have been able to maintain over their environment (primarily, people close to them) is finally revealed ... Given the determination with which our president has hidden certain other personal information, it is probable that there are a few aspects thereof that he perceives might damage him politically, if not personally or even legally.

    Like the close friends of Nicole Brown and O.J., there may indeed be distressed, conscientious individuals who are privy to the truth of these matters. Ironically, it may wind up being the effects of Obama's narcissism itself that eventually give them away.

Obama's speech was unconstitutional!!!

http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=108915

A lawyer whose work has included myriad civil rights disputes and who has practice before the U.S. Supreme Court is accusing President Obama of trying to push his social agenda by reaching out directly to young children, bypassing parents who may challenge his statements.

And what Obama plans to do on Sept. 8 with a planned speech directly to students in public schools across the United States may even be illegal, according to Mathew D. Staver, founder of Liberty Counsel as well as dean of Liberty University School of Law.

"Obama has pushed his political agenda to the extreme by forcing himself on America's children," Staver said in a statement today. "Obama's political agenda on healthcare and his expansive vision for government is being rejected by the American people. Now Obama is after our children, who, like some socialist members of Congress, have not read the healthcare bill. Americans do not appreciate the president's attempt to use our children as political pawns in his game of chess. Mr. President, you must abide by the rule of law and stop this illegal activity. Our children do not belong to you."

Staver's critique cited 20 U.S.C. § 3403, which regards the Department of Education and states, "No provision of a program administered by the Secretary or by any other officer of the Department shall be construed to authorize the Secretary or any such officer to exercise any direction, supervision, or control over the curriculum, program of instruction, administration, or personnel of any educational institution, school, or school system."

Staver probably doesn't even exist.  That's World Nut Daily you're quoting, there.  "Staver" is probably some guy on an internet forum that claims to be a constitutional lawyer.  WND is infamous for "sources" like that.

[The Good Reverend Roger]

For added fun, kids, google "Liberty University".

[Requia ☣]

I just got done with that.

Apparently they'll pay you to go to school there.

Sadly Staver and Liberty Counsel really do exist. He's even been before the Supreme Court. His arguments are always this shitty. I don't know how he hasn't been disbarred for gross incompetence yet.

He apparently usually wins.  LC has an 89% win rate

Dear Mr. Farah:

I'm unsure what constitutes a letter to the editor, but I know what I think and feel concerning the mind-control diatribe called a presidential speech Wednesday evening.

It is my opinion what Rep. Joe Wilson did and said was necessary. It was necessary for God to disrupt the demonic subliminal communication that manifests from Obama and his entourage and shake the 111th United States Congress from their complacency (and probable altered states of consciousness).

To me, it gave new meaning to: "The voice of one crying in the wilderness: 'Prepare the way of the Lord; Make His paths straight.'" And I do believe that in the moment "You lie!" came forth from Wilson's mouth, judgment was declared upon the chosen man, the pawn who constitutionally should not be the president of the United States.

Further, I believe the holy "ripple effect" of the outburst will bring forth good fruit in the days to come. (May the Lord God of Hosts protect this congressman and show him truth.)

I'm reminded of the New American's fairly comprehensive narrative concerning the formation of the Illuminati.  According to the article, many years ago, a courier on horseback carried documents purported to progress the development and growth of global governance in Europe. At some point during the journey, the courier was struck by lightning. His body and the documents were found and the plot exposed.

Wednesday night's outburst wasn't quite as good as that, yet the outworking of God's power may just change my stated opinion.

May the Lord God of Israel give you exactly what you need to fulfill the works that have been preordained for you to accomplish, Mr. Farah.

Reminds me of the Fresh Air epi I heard yesterday.  Will post separate topic on it though, methinks.

The debate has been reframed as being between the crazy and the absolutely batshit it seems.

Yay! Ray Comfort is back!!!!


http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=109887

Best-selling Christian author Ray Comfort says there are such huge holes in evolutionary arguments that he's giving away 50,000 copies of a special edition of Charles Darwin's "Origin of Species" that includes an introduction not only revealing the theory's many hoaxes but also Darwin's own thoughts on the existence of God.

Comfort, whose new book "Nothing Created Everything" elaborates on the evidence against the theory of evolution, said he's had many conversations with avowed atheists as follows:

    Comfort: "So you are an atheist. Do you then believe that nothing created everything, which is a scientific impossibility?"

    Atheist: "No."

    Comfort: "So you believe that something created everything?"

    Atheist: "Yes."

    Comfort: "Then you're not an atheist."

    Ex-atheist: "OK."
