Democrats Target Online Political Speech

The desire to kill political speech on the internet is nothing new, when it comes to the liberal left progressive Democrats. Their goal is not to win in the arena of ideas, but to eliminate any voice that dares to speak out against them in the arena of ideas. In the battle to silence dissent online, an attack is being launched by the FEC (Federal Elections Commission).

Stacey Dash and Jessa Duggar Slammed for Resisting Evil

The slaughter of millions of innocent lives, and the enslavement of millions of people, are examples of pure unadulterrated evil. Nobody questions using the word "evil" when referring to the slaughter of millions of Jews during the Nazi Holocaust, and the enslavement of millions upon millions of people in the history of slavery on a global scale. In the United States, slavery did not end until after a war that killed over 600,000 young lives was fought, and even then, racism has taken a long time to dwindle to a mere trickle.

The Greed Factor

The government, with all of their regulations and pitfalls, makes us loop-hole seekers. Money is not evil. The love of money is. Money is a tool, and the bigger the tool, the more of the tool you have, the more you can take care of the things you need to. But, we must remember, money is simply a tool that is available for our use as we see fit.

As Obama Tackles Ebola, What About Enterovirus D68?

The president is now paying attention. He has to. Ebola has reached "crisis stage," according to his minions. Ebola is not passed from person to person easily. Two health care workers are sick from Ebola, after dealing with now deceased Ebola Thomas Eric Duncan in Dallas. One of the health care workers is doing well, and the other flew to Cleveland before she was visibly sick, and therefore, we are told, before she was contagious.

Progression of Gay Militantism Reaches Houston in Move Against Pastors

To Christians, homosexuality is an unacceptable behavior to God, as well as to Christ's Flock. Since the dawn of the Christian Church a couple thousand years ago (and prior during the Old Testament era), homosexuality has been taught to be an affront against God. Scripture reveals that homosexuality was a part of the reason for the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, and a sign of the perverse evil Earth's inhabitants had turned to during the days preceding the Great Flood that Noah and his family escaped by building an ark.

ObamaCare Does Not Have You Covered

Covered California is the name for the Obamacare exchange in the Golden State. With the large State on the West Coast being dominated by hard left liberal progressive politics, most of the politicians tout the wondrous utopia our country is going to be once the few little bugs that seem to infest the Affordable Care Act are ironed out.

Ferguson, Missouri, and Black Nationalism

Forget the possibility of the enemy at the gates. The enemy has breached the gates. The enemy is within. The enemy is in Washington, D.C., and in Ferguson, Missouri. The ideology that has grabbed a hold of Ferguson is the same one that destroyed Detroit. Black Nationalism.

So much for Murrieta being the Gem of the Valley

Jonathan Ingram is a local mover and shaker, a small businessman who is President of the Murrieta-Temecula California Republican Assembly, and the President of the Greer Ranch Home Owner's Association. His signs for Murrieta City Council have graced the roadways and the lawns of some homes as have other signs for other candidates.

Gwyneth Paltrow, and the Celebrity in Chief Who Would Be King

Hosting a fundraiser for President Barack Obama at her home, Gwyneth Paltrow gushed as she introduced President Obama, "I am one of your biggest fans, if not the biggest," and when handing him the microphone, Paltrow said to the President, "You're so handsome that I can't speak properly." In the middle of her worship session, she added, like a good, mindless follower of a ruling elitist, "It would be wonderful if we were able to give this man all of the power that he needs to pass the things that he needs to pass."

Extreme Conservatives in Search of Purity

A listener to my Constitution Radio with Douglas V. Gibbs program on KCAA AM1050, and regular reader of Political Pistachio, emails me often to challenge what he considers to be my oath to the Republican Party. I have no oath to the GOP. My oath is to God, and my political ideology is that of a Classical Centrist, which is someone that, without compromise, supports the original intent of the United States Constitution.

Barack Obama: War is Peace

War is hellaciously beneficial to a struggling Presidency. And the hard left progressive political establishment in the United States knows how to wage a good war. Just take a look at their successes regarding domestic warfare. They have waged a war on drugs, and a war on poverty, and the poor are on the verge of surrender!

Adrian Peterson and the Fine Line of Child Abuse

Corporal punishment or Child Abuse

Flipping Texas

Among the reasons the Democrat Party is full throttle behind the illegal alien issue is the State of Texas. Colorado was flipped from red to blue by four billionaires who poured their money into that State with the specific intent of flipping it blue. Texas is not so easy to flip.

9/11 Not a Tragedy... An Act of War

The attacks against the United States on New York City's Twin Towers at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon located just outside of Washington DC in Arlington County, Virginia and Flight 93 on September 11, 2001 was not a tragedy, but an act of war against the United States of America. Tragedy is defined as, "An event causing great suffering, destruction, and distress, such as a serious accident, crime, or natural catastrophe." The flight of planes hijacked by terrorists and flown into the two towers, and the Pentagon, was not a serious accident, a crime, or a natural catastrophe.

Freedom of Approved Speech

The politicians are always working on tweaking freedom of speech because political correctness has turned out not to be oppressive enough. They use back doors and side entrances to attack freedom of speech, because if they came in the front door, you would know what they were up to, and you would use your freedom of speech to stop them. The political leaders tell you their actions against your liberty is for your own protection, because apparently you can't be trusted with it.

Kids, Guns, and a Shooting Range

To drive home a point in a conversation with me about guns, someone showed me a video where Penn Jillette of the famous "Penn and Teller Magic Team," in an attempt to show you that violent video games don't cause violence, or do not make kids violent, brought the reality of the firearm to a young man at a shooting range.

Cry for Argentina

A year ago conservatives in Argentina claimed the South American country was headed in the same direction as Venezuela. Economic freedom was under assault because of the institution of a failed Bolivarian economic monster - Hugo Chavez's "twenty-first century socialism" was destroying yet another South American victim. As with any nation that embraces socialism and abandons the free market, poverty increases, and things like toilet paper become a luxury.

ALS Ice Bucket Challenge: Thanks, but No Thanks

A dear friend of mine, a friend of 36 years, and a cancer patient, Nacho, decided to take the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge that has been exploding around America in popularity. The challenge is to record yourself being the recipient of ice water dumped over your head, to raise money for the neurogenerative disorder ALS (Lou Gehrig's Disease) as a sign of your promise to donate to the cause, and then challenge others to do the same. He made the challenge onFacebook, and my comment in return was:

The Golfing President

I love to golf, but I haven't swung my clubs for quite a while. An injury to my back and neck has kept me away from the links now that I have some time, and a lack of time while I was driving a Sand and Gravel big rig kept me away from golf courses during the last half dozen years. Before that, I played quite a bit.

Parents Protest Sex Education, Planned Parenthood Uses It to Sell Abortion

The liberal left Democrat mantra has been, "Life is precious, except when it is an innocent and helpless child in the womb," and "The Democrat Party's moral supremacy is apparent, encouraging people to choose their own morals, have sex and marry whomever they want, regardless of gender, age, or opinion - unless you are a rightwing extremist. . . then you are a homophobe, and sexual prude that must be silenced. Your children belong to us."
