Song "A Hundred Years Behind" Lamenting The Mindset Of The Republican Tea Partiers & The Growing Threat Of The Militia Patriot Movement in The USA

UPDATE: 2:28 PM , March 31, 2010

Here's a great song characterizing The Tea Partiers and Republicans as being at least a hundred years behind the times. They want to turn the clock back to when whites did not have to compete with Blacks or when they could insult black Americans and other non-whites or non-Christians without any fear of the consequences or "blow back".

A Hundred Years Behind

Chris Caswell, Lyrics
John Lee Sanders, Music & Video Production. ©2010
ASCAP, Swampmeister Music

It was a Sunday in the park
When you uttered your remark
That kind of thinking might appeal to some
But it only made me realize just how far
That we haven't come

You complain and ridicule like you're something special
And when it comes to ignorant you are
Can't understand how anyone can think like you
As a human being you have lowered the bar
You can take what most would think to be a normal day
And turn it in to something dark and cruel
You color it with bigotry and think you know it all
And all you know is how to play the fool

(Chorus)
What scares me is you can't see beyond the vision you created in your mind
It's been going on too long
You couldn't be more wrong
You're putting hope a hundred years behind

I've never released this song, because I wasn't quite sure where it would fit in the scope of my musical landscape. When Barack Obama won the Presidency, there was dancing in the streets for justice, freedom, tolerance, and a new spirit of Hope in America.
As the Party of No continues to endorse racism, intolerance, threats of violence and does nothing to curtail the extreme terrorist remarks of it's leaders and the spread of fear, lies and I realized I could no longer be silent. The final straw was the Texas School board deleting Thomas Jefferson from the history books.

Militia group membership is up 240%, one group was just arrested the day before I am writing this.

...We originally wrote this song as a condemnation of racism, but I realized that in these politically correct time, racism often hides in carefully coded words, used by the right wing media, and our elected representatives. The images used in this video are used to expose racism for what it is, much of it is targeted in fear against a black president, whose policies are not radical at all, but transparent, respectful of all sides, and bi-partisan.

A posting on NPR concurs: "From what I have observed, the election of the first [B]lack president has made it impossible for those who were sort of able to contain their feelings on race, almost impossible for them to do so. I do believe much of the anger and hatred expressed at the town hall meetings during his campaign, and at the political rallies now, and in the rhetoric of entertainers like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck and others, and in the protestors waving signs with racial slurs, all of it, is the same mentality that did allow people to call [B]lack people n****rs, and allowed segregation and discrimination, allowed lynching and the acquittal of the murderers, and allowed open Klan rallies, and allowed Klan members to serve in Congress and on the Supreme Court, and allowed cops to command their dogs to bite or turn their fire hoses on people. How we see it being manifested today may be different, but the motivation is the same"




Militia members sound the Alarm and spread the news via radio and internet that they are all possible targets. These raids of the past weekend are seen as a vindication for their paranoia and their twisted conspiracy theories.

Group Think or "Cult like Thinking " can also be characterized by "Cultural Cognition" in which like-minded individuals gravitate towards one another or to organizations reflecting their beliefs and values

Militia groups issue an alert for all militias and Patriot Groups across the US. They were busy spreading the news while the raids were taking place. This could be an issue if these warnings or alerts are issued in a timely fashion it is possible that some extremist group could then elude the police , FBI Homeland Security etc.

In the below clip this particular individual or group use the film "Red Dawn" to alert their members that the federal US government and its agencies is on a witch hunt possibly to shut down all Militia and Patriot groups even those that are law abiding . The movie "Red Dawn" depicts a future America which is under siege by the Soviet Union or other Marxist anti-American nation(s). In the film Soviet or Nicaraguan troops are parachuted into America's Heartland where they are aided by a fifth column of American communist, leftist, progressive sympathizers and traitors.
This is their greatest fear whether reality based or not that the government may go after these organized groups first and then go after any individual gun owners. This they believe would be the first stages of a national enforcement of martial law under the cover of some real or invented national security crisis.

What the clips below show is how well organized these groups are at least in alerting all Militias , Patriot groups and individuals when some action is taken by the FBI or Homeland Security etc. This also leads one to conclude that these organizations may have developed an effective means by which to rise up simultaneously across America in short order if they believe it is necessary to do so.

ALERT !! FBI Conducts Raids On US Militias UPDATED!!





The disenchanted disenfranchised have a tendency like other societal groups to gravitate towards those who are like minded. In this way the individual's beliefs based upon facts or perceptions or fears are reinforced by the group's basic beliefs whether based on reality or misperceptions. To fill in the blanks the group mind or group think creates if necessary conspiracy theories and an us versus them mentality. In times of real economic hardship for the country such group thinking can lead to a sense of powerlessness apathy or resentment and anger which can be fueled by joining a like minded group or organization.

We could also see this as "cult like thinking" by which any facts which contradict the beliefs of the group are either discounted as unimportant or just ignored or are reevaluated and sifted through a further adaptation of an accepted conspiracy theory.

March 29, 2010 Carnage Along the Path: the Rise and Fall of the Tea Party/Palin/Christianist Movement and the Violence in its Wake at The Democrat Deal blog.

The socio-political monster that is the Tea Party/Sarah Palin/Christianist movement must first rise for it to be slain. The result will be a more vibrant, constructive and civil political environment. But at what cost? If the last two weeks are a precursor of what is to come, it won't be pretty...


While often characterized as such by the left, the TPPC's are neither wholly insane or racist (though arguably some of the former and much of the latter may be found). What may be said of those in the movement as a whole is that they share significant frustration, are motivated by deep-seated beliefs and are nearly entirely misinformed.

This is not just a matter of believing false or misleading information from talk radio, the internet, Fox News or one another. It is also a matter of gravitating towards and accepting as legitimate information and ideas that reflect deep seated beliefs, fears and prejudices. This phenomena, known as cultural cognition, makes beliefs specifically and perspective of reality in general impervious to fact or reason.

Topical examples abound. Climate change, for instance, is accepted as fact by nearly every element of the scientific community. Yet, there are those who wholeheartedly believe otherwise. The so-called "Birthers" believe Barak Obama is not a U.S. citizen. There are those who believe homosexuality is a choice made by the individual rather than the natural development of an individual's biology as shown in every major study on the issue. And there are those, as we covered in previous articles, who would claim America was founded as and intended to be a uniquely "Christian nation" despite the overwhelming contradiction of the U.S. historian community. In each of these instances, there are two clear factors. The belief in question is met with an irrefutable body of evidence to the contrary while it simultaneously reflects the cultural beliefs and perspective of the individual.


also see: The Cultural Cognition Project

The Cultural Cognition Project is a group of scholars interested in studying how cultural values shape public risk perceptions and related policy beliefs. Cultural cognition refers to the tendency of individuals to conform their beliefs about disputed matters of fact (e.g., whether global warming is a serious threat; whether the death penalty deters murder; whether gun control makes society more safe or less) to values that define their cultural identities. Project members are using the methods of various disciplines -- including social psychology, anthropology, communications, and political science -- to chart the impact of this phenomenon and to identify the mechanisms through which it operates. The Project also has an explicit normative objective: to identify processes of democratic decisionmaking by which society can resolve culturally grounded differences in belief in a manner that is both congenial to persons of diverse cultural outlooks and consistent with sound public policy-making.

FBI Raids Christian Militia Jihadist As Tea Party Republican Movement Heighten ItsWar-Like Rhetoric

Christian Militia Group Screenshot of their web homepage Hutaree.com

On their website the Hutaree Christian Militia group spells out their intentions to be ready to go to war with the Anti-Christ whom they now identify as President Barack Obama. Given all of the hyped up vile vicious and violent rhetoric on the part of the Republican Tea Partiers we shouldn't be surprised if such groups on the margins such as the Hutaree begin to make themselves ready for civil unrest in the USA . They combine the language of revolutionaries and insurrection with supposedly proof text from the Bible to sell their mission to Americans .

"The Hutaree will one day see its enemy and meet him on the battlefield if so God wills it. We will reach out to those who are yet blind in the last days of the kingdoms of men and bring them to life in Christ. Daniel 11:32-35, “Those who do wickedly against the covenant he shall corrupt with flattery; but the people who know their God shall be strong, and carry out great exploits. 33, “And those of the people who understand shall instruct many; yet for many days they shall fall by sword and flame, by captivity and plundering. 34, “Now when they fall, they shall be aided with a little help; but many shall join them by intrigue. 35 “And some of those of understanding shall fall, to refine them, purify them, and make them white, until the time of the end; because it is still for the appointed time.”

For educational Purposes only:
Finally the FBI and other policing agencies are keeping an eye on any or all violent organizations whether on the right or left and those Extremists whether they espouse Christian or Islamic or other religious beliefs. So what will the right make of all of this -possibly arguing the FBI is just being politically correct going after anti-Muslim organizations to appease the Muslim American community while (so they claim) having a hands off policy regarding Extremist Muslim Militias. But whatever spin they decide upon promoted by Glenn Beck and others their followers will believe it no matter how divorced from reality. Glenn Beck and The Republican Tea Partiers have little use for fact based reality it is in their views all a matter of perception. They argue that President Obama is a Usurper who won the election through fraud or some sort of mysterious mass hypnosis Svengali type trick and they still have doubts about his citizenship.

Glenn Beck and other spokespersons for the Republican Tea Partiers claim that President Obama and his administration which they characterize as being filled with Marxist, Maoists & other socialists is the final stage in a fifty year old or 150 year old leftist Marxist Progressive conspiracy to take over America. FOX News and Rupert Murdoch can themselves be characterized as doing all they can to get Americans ready for civil unrest, insurrection or Coup d'Etat to remove President Obama from office or find some other means to neutralize Obama and his administration.

Given their heightened rhetoric it is anyone's guess what these extremist will do next. They may sooner or later take matters to the next level of violence. as Chris Hedges argues they may not stop at mere name calling and tossing bricks through windows or cutting gas lines or breaking into the offices of their targeted enemies.

After a week of heightened violent rhetoric on the part of the Republican Tea Party movement as if to illustrate the seriousness of threats against the Obama administration and the US government the FBI raids a Christian Militia group that believes that America is on the verge of a civil war . This group has an apocalyptic view.

Homegrown christian Jihadist



GRITTV Laura Flanders discusses the War like rhetoric of Glenn Beck & The Tea Party Republican Movement. It may be the same old right wing rhetoric but there are those who will take this rhetoric literally and as a very real call to arms by so called "Real Americans"


"In order to respond, alas, we have to understand, and that means going through the looking glass."

So wrote Richard Kim of the tea party movement's latest bogeyman--the Cloward-Piven strategy, which demagogues like Glenn Beck proclaim is the strategy for destroying America and putting in place totalitarian socialism. It sounds ridiculous, Richard notes, and that's precisely why it has such power.

He joins us in studio to explain where this grand conspiracy theory came from, and how it plays into larger threads within the rise of the organized, angry right under the Obama administration.

Chris Hedges in this article argues that America is on the road to fascism. He accuses the middle class, liberals, academics etc. of not doing enough to make real substantive changes to the American system of governance which has been hijacked by the Corporate elite and special interests. He also attacks liberals for being overly concerned about Political Correctness rather than real change.

Is America ‘Yearning For Fascism?’By Chris Hedges via Information Clearing House

March 29, 2010 "TruthDig" -- The language of violence always presages violence. I watched it in war after war from Latin America to the Balkans. The impoverishment of a working class and the snuffing out of hope and opportunity always produce angry mobs ready to kill and be killed. A bankrupt, liberal elite, which proves ineffectual against the rich and the criminal, always gets swept aside, in times of economic collapse, before thugs and demagogues emerge to play to the passions of the crowd. I have seen this drama. I know each act. I know how it ends. I have heard it in other tongues in other lands. I recognize the same stock characters, the buffoons, charlatans and fools, the same confused crowds and the same impotent and despised liberal class that deserves the hatred it engenders.

..The Democrats and their liberal apologists are so oblivious to the profound personal and economic despair sweeping through this country that they think offering unemployed people the right to keep their unemployed children on their nonexistent health care policies is a step forward. They think that passing a jobs bill that will give tax credits to corporations is a rational response to an unemployment rate that is, in real terms, close to 20 percent. They think that making ordinary Americans, one in eight of whom depends on food stamps to eat, fork over trillions in taxpayer dollars to pay for the crimes of Wall Street and war is acceptable. They think that the refusal to save the estimated 2.4 million people who will be forced out of their homes by foreclosure this year is justified by the bloodless language of fiscal austerity. The message is clear. Laws do not apply to the power elite. Our government does not work. And the longer we stand by and do nothing, the longer we refuse to embrace and recognize the legitimate rage of the working class, the faster we will see our anemic democracy die.

When someone like Palin posts a map with cross hairs on the districts of Democrats, when she says "Don't Retreat, Instead-RELOAD!" there are desperate people cleaning their weapons who listen. When Christian fascists stand in the pulpits of megachurches and denounce Barack Obama as the Antichrist, there are messianic believers who listen. When a Republican lawmaker shouts "baby killer" at Michigan Democrat Bart Stupak, there are violent extremists who see the mission of saving the unborn as a sacred duty. They have little left to lose. We made sure of that. And the violence they inflict is an expression of the violence they endure.

These movements are not yet full-blown fascist movements. They do not openly call for the extermination of ethnic or religious groups. They do not openly advocate violence. But, as I was told by Fritz Stern, a scholar of fascism who has written about the origins of Nazism, "In Germany there was a yearning for fascism before fascism was invented." It is the yearning that we now see, and it is dangerous. If we do not immediately reincorporate the unemployed and the poor back into the economy, giving them jobs and relief from crippling debt, then the nascent racism and violence that are leaping up around the edges of American society will become a full-blown conflagration.

Glenn Beck Reformed 9/11 Truther ? Republicans/ Tea Partiers' Praetorian Guard Blackwater INC./XeServices Locked & Loaded???

Here 's ca couple of juicy bits
Glenn Beck was a 9/11 Truther
And Republican Party gains an army Blackwater

Glenn Beck & 9/11 truthers-he was one but now uses it as an accusation and to undermine someone he disagrees with on unrelated issue. Beck will use whatever issue he can to attack others.

Glen Beck is a hypocritical, false patriot, puppet for the government. Glen can be seen here questioning the official 9/11 story and then slams Medina for not bowing down to the official story while she was not even talking about that. Glen beck further attacks 9/11 families with insults. Glen Beck's purpose is to misinform and misdirect the real patriot movement.



So the RNC admits to being Blackwater XServices Mercenaries supporters - they have no qualmsby Blackwater mercenaries being unaccountable for their actions so RNC gives them blanket approval and carte blance -
Nor are the Republicans have no problem that Blackwater mercenaries murdered innocent civilians
Nor are they bothered by Blackwater's promotion of the idea that the War is really a Crusade to wipe out Islam
Nor are they bothered that Blackwater sold guns on the black market in Iraq
Nor are they bothered by sexual depravity of these mercenaries with company paid for prostitutes or that these men drank shots off of their buddies butts -
Nor are they bothered if Blackwater tortured prisoners or in some cases summarily executed them.
For the RNC and its operatives at Fox News including Glenn Beck have no problem with these behaviors since it appears they do represent Real Americans God Prostitutes Guns and Murder but if they are true Christians they were forgiven by Jesus before they even committed these deeds since they are the twice blessed having been "born again".

Ben Smith at Politico
March 25, 2010 RNC Blackwater event is on


Spokesmen for the Republican National Committee and for Xe Services, the embattled military contractor formerly known as Blackwater, denied to me last month that the party had any plans to host a donor retreat at Xe's U.S. Training Center in North Carolina.

Today, however, spokesmen for both said the event -- which appeared in a calendar in the leaked RNC fundraising presentation -- is on.

RNC Communications Director Doug Heye said the event was arranged after the leak of the document, which treated it only as a suggestion. The party's "Young Eagle" donors will gather April 22 at the facility in Moyock, N.C., which provides weapons and military training to soldiers, police, and vacationers alike.

"Tea Party & Sarah Palin Crazy Train " Beck "Social Justice" Redux And Media Matters.org calls Glenn Beck The Most Dangerous Person In USA

UPDATE: 3:31PM March 28, 2010

SERMON OF THE WEEK-Glenn Beck on Pernicious evil "Social Justice"

Glenn Beck American Revival Tour March 26th, 2010; UCF Arena, Orland, Florida



Beck is arguing that if government is involved in protecting the health and welfare of its citizens when it comes to basic need Beck calls this pernicious socialism. He is against socialized medicine but also free public schools or any special aid being given to those who are physically or psychologically infirm-let the poor , the lame , the blind, the deaf, the insane, the orphan be left in the streets to rot until some well meaning Christian decides to help these people who are also citizens of the USA. Glenn Beck believes there are winners and losers so if you happen to be born into a wealthy family then you deserve that which you haven't worked for . The rich are to be honored as the "Blessed Children of God" and the poor the weak etc. are being punished or tested by God and no man has a right to interfere in this natural God ordained order.

New Moon Trailer with Sarah Palin
Jimmy Kimmel



and for the worst apology of the week:

Rep. Devin Nunes goes onto blame Obama's Totalitarian Regime for any anger on the part of the Tea Party Protester and their "fellow travelers". The Obama administration has been trying to work with Republicans for over a year yet Obama is still accused of not allowing any input or changes made to the Health Care Reform Bill as a result of their pressure. The Public Option or any move towards government run Universal Health Care which other western capitalist countries have no problem with such a socialist style policy. Its the same as objecting to free public schools as if education was just a privilege or an option when in fact education is absolutely necessary for the individual and for society or the nation and for a healthy democracy. For some Americans there is no way it seems to inform them what may have been considered radical in the 19th century today we take for granted ie free Public Schools, social assistance, food stamps, welfare or giving assistance to the physically or mentally infirm.

DESPICABLE! Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) won't denounce racial & homophic slurs

Ann Coulter Says Racist Slurs & Sterotypes Are Just Facts Meanwhile Republicans & Conservatives Rhetoric Getting Down Right Ugly

And more Ann Coulter Comedian or dangerous Ideologue who is stirring up more hate, resentment, racism and bigotry and fear of Big Government





Example of right wing blog and its response to Coulter Canadain affair-click to enlarge to read- note prominence of guns and women and references to their Saint Ronald Reagan who they see as the founder of the current Conservative Movement in the USA. Also note there is plenty of T Shirts posters, bumper stickers videos and audio tapes and books all for sale -Hate Speech in America is a growing concern in more ways than one.



Coulter defended the war in Iraq and chastised Democrats for "demoralizing America."

"The war was a magnificent success," she said. "We're a few years into the rebuilding."

She also criticized the media for being liberal and Democrats for whining about their rights under the First Amendment.

"They're always accusing us of repressing their speech," she said. "I say let's do it. Let's repress them."

She later added, "Frankly, I'm not a big fan of the First Amendment."

from Coulter courts Gainesville By JESSICA RIFFEL Alligator Writer at The Independent Florida Alligator Oct. 21,2005

Here's Ann Coulter being interviewed by Far right Bill O'Reilly -what's funny about this is that Ann Coulter manages to make Bill O'Reilly look completely reasonable. Even he knows some things its best left unsaid . But of course this is her schtick to be outrageous and inflammatory-this is after all her bread and butter. She always has an excuse of some sort prepared in case someone calls her out on one her insensitive or down right vile and vicious statements-she say she was just joking or being taken out of context -if you still have doubts read one of her books .
Godless for instance is just one big fat conspiracy theory blaming liberals and progressives for everything bad and so since their ideology is UnAmerican or Anti-American they shouldn't be in positions of authority-she would like to begin a witchhunt for liberals. Her "conspiracy Theories are as daft as those regarding the non-existent "Illuminatae" or "Masons" or "New World Order"

But Coulter like Glenn Beck also borrows from the Nazi Propaganda Book aka Talking Points especially in reference to the Anti-Semitic belief in the "Jewish Conspiracy" . For two thousand years the Christians preached against the Jews and Judaism calling them "a nest of vipers" . But they didn't just preach against the Jewish people they were not classified as citizens and so they had no rights. In most European cities the Jews were kept in Ghettoes were walled and the gates were often kept shut til dawn.

Besides the Ghettoization there were pogroms, massacres, the Inquisition, the Crusades & the Reconquista in Andalusia or being expelled from various countries such as England .

-The Catholic Church and the Protestant Churches preached against the Jews and Judaism claiming they were guilty of killing Jesus, Deicide and that the guilt passed from one generation to the next. So Christians had every right to hate and mistreat Jews since they were God Killers and that they are in league with the Devil Synagogues of Satan as Martin Luther called Judaism .

So when Ann Coulter or Glenn Beck are going on about immigrants or Muslims or liberals just replace the word liberal with the word "Jews"- Some of it sounds like it is right out the Anti-Semitic forgery "The Protocols of the Eleders of Zion" which if anything is either sickening or so bizarre its laugh out loud funny til one remembers what horrors it lead to and it was written by The Christian Tzar of Russia Secret police circa 1905.



-----------------------------------------
In an article at the blog Anti-Racist Canada the author takes a quick look at Coulter's rise to fame or to be infamous and what may have been her game plan for a career making loads of money while actually doing very little.

Ann Coulter. Whatever. at Anti-Racist Canada: The ARC Collective March 25, 2010

Ms. Coulter decided the best way to gain a significant fan base was to write and say the most outrageous, shocking, intolerant, ignorant, insulting rhetoric she could think of. And it has worked, and continues to work, beautifully.

Coulter has been wildly successful by appealing to the ugliest parts of her fan base's intellect and emotion. This approach has made her an embarrassment to mainstream conservatives (she's been fired as a columnist for a number of conservative publications), but her admirers eat it up. She's made millions on books with simple titles (simple titles for simple minds perhaps): Treason. Godless. Slander. Guilty. All in an effort to manipulate the base emotions of her mostly male readers (right down to the slinky, formfitting dresses she models on the covers) who already are inclined to believe that Democrats, liberals and progressives are not people with whom they have they fundamentally disagree with on a variety of issues, but as a cancer in the body politic that needs to be destroyed with extreme prejudice. She's helped contribute to a polarized political environment in her own country in which civil discourse is not only rejected, but stomped into the mud.

And she's laughing all the way to the bank because she's managed to fool the rubes who really think she believes what she writes and says.

...Now in Calgary, Ms. Coulter isn't above continuing to use the cancellation of the event in Ottawa to create controversy and, thus, more publicity to put bums in the seats and people buying her books. Now she's clumsily attempts to use regional tensions to further her efforts:

"It's quite a country you have here," Coulter told Evan Solomon, host of Power & Politics, on CBC News Network on Thursday. "I'm more determined than ever to turn pretty much from Calgary through the west into the 51st state now. We got to save the good Canadians."

"Save us from what, Ann?" Solomon asked.

"From the crazy liberals. From the crybabies," Coulter answered, sporting sunglasses. "How did Canada go from being the country that sends us all our best comedians to a bunch of whining, crying babies that can't take a joke?"


The far right is now the totality of the right and of the Republican Party in the USA. So Ann Coulter believing she is doing Canadians a service has been gracing our so she says not so free country with divine presence. Ann Coulter is somewhat of a celebrity and treated like royalty in the world of Neoconservatives and the Religious Right composed mainly by Evangelical Fundamentalist Christians. They have little use for democracy except as a way to get more power & control to dismantle their national government ecxept for the Department of Defense because they do believe in the Straussian sense that a nation needs an enemy which can be demonized as an ever present danger.
(Leo Strauss see Shadia Drury On Leo Strauss )

The American conservatives are using the opportunity to bash and run-down Canada as a second rate nation which as Coulter has said that Canada is lucky that America just conquers our weak nation. So here's a sample of conservative bloggers coming to Ann Coulter's defense from the rightwing racist anti-Muslims anti-Islam Faux Arab/Muslim blog "the Winds Of Jihad" Like Ann Coulter these bloggers have learned from her that by dressing up their prejudices,their demonizing all liberals and progressives as a fifth column to their racism, their homophobia, their hatred of Islam and all Muslims and their desire to re-ignite The Crusades so they can wipe Islam out or reduce it to a shadow of its former self. But bigotry and racism are still what they are no matter how its packaged . It's like torture is torture no matter how you dress it up as "Enhanced Interrogation Techniques" or conquering and occupying a sovereign nation is still a War Crime and a Crime Against Humanity.

Tea Party Targets Harry Reid: Thousands Expected At Rally In Nevada On Saturday by Jeremy Binkes at huffington Post ,March26, 2010

Searchlight, Nev. is a town with a population of 800 and the hometown of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. But on Saturday, the sleepy town's population is expected to explode.

The Tea Party Express will kick off its 2010 tour (the "Just Vote Them Out! Tour") in Searchlight.

The first stop -- the "Showdown in Searchlight" -- will target Reid and Democrats who voted for the health care reform bill and will feature an appearance by Sarah Palin, who is stumping for Sen. John McCain on Friday.

The bus will make a total of 44 stops as it winds its way across the country before finishing in Washington, D.C. on tax day -- April 15.

Right-Wing Terrorism Stoked by Conservative Leaders Again by Bob Cesca at Huffington Post , march 24, 2010

During the Bush years, members of the far-right would often suggest that liberals were "with the terrorists" if we merely opposed the invasion and occupation of Iraq, or if we opposed the policies of the Republican leadership at the time. In fact, any negative criticism of the president whatsoever was considered unpatriotic "while troops were in harm's way." That was the line we heard almost daily throughout the previous decade: don't undermine the commander-in-chief while troops were deployed in battle. Just don't. Or Sean Hannity will crush you with his mighty hairline!

But in general, there was this idea among Republicans that liberals were somehow emboldening the terrorists anytime we suggested that it might be a bad idea to eavesdrop on American telecommunications, or that it might be a bad idea to torture detainees, or that it might be a bad idea to invade Iran after having already invaded Iraq and Afghanistan to varying degrees of failure. Either we were with the administration, or we were with the terrorists.


Call for Americans to lock and load and take the law into their own hands???
Hate Watch SPLC

After Call to Arms, Nativist Extremist Leader Calls it Quits Posted in Anti-Immigrant, Nativist Extremist by Sonia Scherr
A major nativist group known for its armed border patrols is disbanding. Hatewatch SPLC March 26, 2010


In a Monday E-mail to supporters, Minuteman Civil Defense Corps President Carmen Mercer said the MCDC will no longer exist as an organization, though she encouraged supporters to continue its work independently. “I predict Americans, on their own, will lock, load and do what the feckless cowards in Washington refuse to do — and frankly I hope Americans do take up arms to defend this great nation,” she wrote in the “urgent alert.”

MCDC is an offshoot of the Minuteman Project, a month-long civilian border patrol that was covered extensively by journalists five years ago. (Then-President George W. Bush called the Minutemen “vigilantes” in March 2005.) In 2009, MCDC had at least 74 chapters in nearly 30 states, making it the biggest of the Minuteman spin-off groups. But MCDC and the larger Minuteman movement have been plagued by infighting, allegations of financial impropriety and civil litigation. In addition, the leader of Minuteman American Defense (MAD) was charged with the May 2009 murder of a 9-year-old Latina girl and her father during a home invasion in Arivaca, Ariz., setting off furious accusations and counter-accusations over who had supported MAD’s Shawna Forde over the years.


Fox News, health care, and the right-wing nervous breakdown by Eric Boehlert at Media Matters March 23, 2010

Watching Fox News personalities recently come unglued as the realization set in that (surprise!) Democrats might actually have the votes to pass health care reform -- and noting how extraordinarily loopy and dire both the attacks on the White House, and the proclamations for pending, apocalyptic doom were becoming -- I was getting nervous that one of Fox News' more unhinged hosts might finally just snap and pull a Rev. Jim Jones, beseeching viewers to make the ultimate sacrifice.

Honestly, unless you've been monitoring the ticking time bomb that is the far-right media in recent days, you probably don't appreciate how frighteningly possible that cultish scenario has become, as the GOP Noise Machine, led by Fox News, publicly suffers a nervous breakdown. It's a mental and emotional collapse that's been advertised in recent days as cablers, radio talkers, and right-wing bloggers have reached for increasingly hysterical, often blood-curdling rhetoric to describe the irreversible atrocity -- an incurable, metastasizing malignancy!! -- that's about to seize and destroy the United States in the form of a bill to expand health care coverage.

Listening to the calamitous warnings (i.e. "the end of America as we know it"), it's not that unreasonable to think that at some point one of the media mob leaders is going to suggest that life itself just is no longer worth living.

After all, late last week the nation stood on the precipice, just three "days away from the United States of America being over as we've all known it," according to Rush Limbaugh, who warned that reform would drive every private insurance company out of business. Glenn Beck also went full tilt, warning that the bill represented a "turning point," like the Civil War and Peal Harbor, while colleague Sean Hannity pinpointed the health care vote as the "very hour" that America turned "completely towards socialism."

The Washington Times likened reform to the "Black Plague," and the online reaction was somehow even more unhinged. It was "RIP USA," because with the vote, America would become "occupied by a hostile foreign power." Indeed, a "socialist putsch" had been sprung and "America's Day of Wreckoning [sic]" was at hand. Why? Because the Democrats' health care legislation "will make every American a POW, strip them of their Freedoms and Liberty and shove them in a meat cellar for cold storage."

Not scared yet? Well, just keep in mind that "Fascist healthcare will destroy America," "civil unrest is coming," and President Obama is to blame. More? "Fascist House Democrats are preparing to euthanize America." And don't forget that Sunday's health care vote in Congress represented a "dark day for America, the worst since 9/11."

And, progressive politicians, heed this warning: "Democrats who crammed this unwarranted bill down the throats of the American people who clearly and overwhelmingly opposed it deserve to be drawn and quartered."



and so it goes,
GORD.

Ann Coulter Blames Darwin For The Hollocaust & Republicans Revenge Tactics & David Frum Excommunicated

Are Republicans interfering with the war effort by not permitting committees from meeting which deal with Armed Forces. All through the Bush years the Republicans called anyone who dare criticize Bush's policies.


Watch Ellen Miller get cut off in Tuesday's hearing:



and now another peek into the mind of Ann Couler in which we discover she has little or no respect for science thinks the world is 6,000 years old rather than 3.5 Billion years -just a slight adjustment.

Darwin's Deadly Legacy - with Ann Coulter
The trailer for the jaw-dropping documentary denying evolution and blaming Darwin's theories for being responsible for the Holocast. Even features everyone's favorite.. Ann Coulter.

Are Republicans interferring with the war effort by not permitting committees from meeting which deal with Armed Forces

GOP Senators Refusing To Work Past 2PM, Invoking Obscure Rule by Ryan Grim Huffington Post ,March 24, 2010


On Wednesday, the Judiciary Committee was forced to cancel a hearing as was the Senate Armed Services Committee.

Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) tweeted today : "Disappointed. Rs refusing to allow hearings today. Had to cancel my oversight hearing on police training contracts in Afghanistan."

Sen. Mark Udall also complained that he had to delay a hearing on the cause of Western forest fires.

Making good on Sen. John McCain's threat to withhold all Republican cooperation from Democrats in the Senate in retribution for the majority party using reconciliation to pass health care reform, the GOP used the rule that states committees can only meet when the chamber is in session with the unanimous consent of all members. That consent has almost never been withheld -- until now.

Armed Services Chairman Carl Levin (D-Mich.) asked for consent for his panel to operate Wednesday afternoon. He noted, ironically, that his request had the support of McCain.

"There is objection on our side of the aisle and therefore I object," said Sen. Richard Burr (R-N.C.).

The GOP objection blocked testimony from Admiral Robert Willard, United States Navy Commander of the U.S. Pacific Command; from General Kevin Chilton, United States Air Force, Commander of the U.S. Strategic Command, and from General Walter Sharp, United States Army Commander, U.S. Forces Korea.

For his part, Judiciary Chairman Pat Leahy (D-Vt.) was livid when his committee was forced to delay consideration of several judicial nominees.

"I have accommodated requests from Judiciary Committee Republicans to delay the Committee's hearing to consider Professor Liu's nomination," Leahy said.

He continued: "For months, Senate Republicans have resisted efforts to enact important reforms to our health insurance system. But when the dust settles and the emotions are calmed, history will show that President Obama and this Congress responded to a pressing national issue, and proved once again that we can act with the purpose of advancing an important national interest. Sadly, actions like today's objections from Senate Republicans to the consideration of a highly qualified, historic nominee will be viewed as little more than petty, partisan politics.

...Sen. Daniel Akaka (D-Hawaii), Chairman of the Veterans' Affairs Committee, had his hearing shut down abruptly at 11:00 Wednesday morning, in the middle of a discussion on the effort to end veteran homelessness in the next five years. It is estimated that more than 100,000 veterans are homeless in the United States on any given night.


"AEI hits David Frum where it hurts" by Matt MillerPostpartisan Washington Post March 25,2010
Those Republican brutes! It’s bad enough not to tolerate David Frum’s dissent on health care -- especially since his judgments have been stunningly correct. But in ousting him after a mad overnight revolt among its donors, the American Enterprise Institute has put Frum’s family into precisely the health care hell that Obamacare seeks to remedy. What many people don’t realize about the think tank world is that the policy types who serve as modestly paid fellows do so in large part for the health coverage. In our antiquated employer-based system, middle-aged wonks simply have to be attached to a group to be insurable. If you and your spouse have reached your 40s and have had even modest health bumps along the way, you'll never be able to get coverage in the pre-Obamacare individual market


Talk about a two-fer. In one stroke, David Frum has become not only the poster boy for the Republican party’s incoherent tantrums, but for the need for Obamacare itself! It doesn’t get more delicious than this.


The Conservatie Movement has been sending out via the web an Enemies List that is those who were in favor of Health Reform or who support Obama in any way or those who don't accept all of the platform of the Far Right who now control the part.

Calling All Thugs: Gas Line Cut After Tea Party Leader Posts Enemy’s Address by Mark Potokat Hate Watch SPLC March 24, 2010


The latest news from the opponents of health care reform who like to suggest that supporters should suffer for their transgressions: A day after two Virginia Tea Party activists posted the address of the brother of a congressman who voted for the bill, authorities discovered that someone had severed a gas line at the man’s home.

According to The Daily Progress of Charlottesville, Va., Danville Tea Party leader Nigel Coleman was one of the two people who posted the address of Bo Perriello, the older brother of U.S. Rep. Tom Perriello (D-Ivy), who voted for the health care bill. “This is Rep. Thomas Stuart Perriello’s home address,” Coleman wrote Monday, going on to suggest that others who oppose the health care bill “drop by” and “express their thanks.” He added, “I ain’t holding back no more.”

According to the Politico website, Coleman, upon learning he had posted the wrong address, said on a blog: “Do you mean I posted his brother’s address on my Facebook? Oh well, collateral damage.”

Told by The Daily Progress of the severing of the line that connected a propane tank to a grill on Perriello’s screened-in porch, Coleman said he was “shocked” and “almost speechless.” He claimed innocently that he was against violence, and in any case wasn’t sure that the attack, which is under FBI investigation, was related to his post.

Coleman’s absolutely despicable actions were remarkably similar to those of American neo-Nazi leaders who in recent years have made a practice of posting their enemies’ addresses and other personal information. They, too, often suggested that their sympathizers drop by to let enemies know their feelings. But that certainly didn’t stop Coleman from engaging in his own mindless and dangerous provocation.

As if that wasn’t enough, opponents of health care legislation demonstrating in Washington, D.C., this weekend spit on a black congressman, shouted racial slurs at two others, and shouted an anti-gay epithet at yet another. A week earlier, a group at a Tea Party in Columbus, Ohio, taunted a man sitting on the ground with a sign saying he had Parkinson’s disease. “If you’re looking for a handout,” one of the protesters told the health care reform supporter in a scene captured on video and posted to YouTube, “you’re in the wrong end of town.”

These despicable attacks and those who help foment them are unworthy of any citizen of a democracy, let alone of those who pretend to be standing up for principled conservatism. What we are seeing is the infuriated response of thugs and those who like to encourage thugs. And what may be most appalling of all is the absolute temerity, not to say cowardice, of supposedly responsible leaders of those who opposed health care reform, almost none of whom have condemned the latest round of hate. It’s a sad commentary on America that this is what our political process has become

Ann Coulter Spewing Hate Speech Against Jews, Gays, Muslims, Progressives ,Hispanics, Blacks Part 2

Ann Coulter tells a Muslim woman to take a camel instead of an airplane.

Coulter Speech Cancelled at University of Ottawa
http://www.cfra.com/?cat=1&nid=72049




Ann Coulter and her supporters believe she has the right to say whatever she wants. No one therefore has a right to censor her. Yes if she were delivering an academic style lecture rather than preaching racism, and hate for various groups Muslims, Hispanics, Blacks, the poor , the sick, . Now if this was presented purely as a comedy act some of it might be excused but she claims to be an expert on a number of issues and on American History and the History of The Middle East & Japan and China etc.But in Canada we have laws regarding Hate Speech which applies to anyone no matter their ideology. But it seems the Stephen Harper government appears to believe that only those who disagree with their Neoconservative government's policies etc.

News agencies and various groups have brought up the case of UK MP George Galloway who was refused entry to Canada.. It didn't occur to them that this might have been seen as an insult to the UK . The other part of the bizarre nature of this Canadian policy was that the United States which is usually seen as more cautios than Canada allowed Galloway into their country. So even the Americans weren't buying what Stephen Harper and the Conservative government were selling.
MP George Galloway was not permitted into Canada because he delivered humanitarian aid to Gaza. Canada supports Israel in its attempt to starve the Palestinians in what is now a walled in Ghetto with gun boats guarding the shore line. They couldn't just come out and say that so they claim that Gaza's government under Hamas which came to power through the ballot Box are all terrorists we are told. Therefore any one giving aid to Hamas is supporting terrorism whereas Galloway argues that he was giving aid to the people of Gaza he can't help if their government is Hamas. So anyone giving aid to Gaza including ICRC Red Cross or The UN or NGOs even Christian ones would be violating Canadian law and should also be kept out of Canada.

Odd how these Neocons are always going on about having a real democracy requires an elected government yet reject the results if they are no willing to give into all of America's or the West demands.


We were also told there were WMDs and Iraq would be a cake walk as they took out of power Saddam whom they had put into power as their puppet but things change. Eventually the dictators you support may break the rules. Then The West rides in to rid the world of a nasty dictator or clean up a mess that they helped to create ie Shah of Iran, General Pinochet.. We have always been at war with Eurasia etc.

Ann Coulter is a propagandists not a scholar spreading hate about certain groups all of whom she demonizes as about to destroy Americafrom within and without. There are progressives /liberals and Muslims , Gays, Hispanics ,Blacks who are the enemy within. The enemy without is noot just Muslim Extremists but rather Islam and all Muslims. She uses various epithets or sterotypes such as Gays are "Faggots" and Arabs are "Rag Heads" & "Camel Jockeys" "barbaric" "Stone Age tribes" "Fanatic" "Deceitful" "Cunning" . She calls Islam a false religion and is not just dismissive of Muhammad but is crass and crude calling him a pediophile, a con man, a huckster, a sex addict, a butcherer of men a blood thirsty warrior etc. So ridding the world of Islam is the only way in her view to stop terrorism which means stopping Islam.

She agrees with The Tea party Anti-Obama anti-Health Care Reform insensitive barely human conservatives who mocked a man with Parkinsons Disease-Ann Claims Jesus would do the same and it seems Canadian Neocons including Stephen harper agree. Their Jesus carries an M16 and has little time for the whinning of the poor, the lame, the sick, the meek and the disenfranchised- That's her brand of Americanized Winner Take all Christianity.
Polite Anti-Semitism
Perfected: The Ann Coulter Song
The song here refers to Ann Coulter's remark that Jews need to be " perfected " by becoming Christians.She does not see that this attitude towards Jews is one of the oldest forms of Christian anti-Semitism .It is the belief that Christianity supersedes the religion of Judaism with the coming of Jesus as the Christ & Messiah.

PM Harper's Neocon Gov't Defends Ann Coulter Spewing Hate Speech in Canada & She Plays Victim Of Progressives At "Bush League " Canadian College

Ann Coulter Hate & Fear Monger Peddling Bigotry

Without America Canada would be a third world country-

Canada is lucky we allow them to exist on the same continent
and Ann Coulter says only the dregs of America ie draft dodgers, Empire loyalists, escaped slaves have ever immigrated to Canada
Canada has been disloyal to America
"We exploit your natural resources and any Canadian who has talent moves to the United States
"Besides (Tucker Carlson) says Canadians are too busy dog sledding"
Ann Coulter/Tucker Carlson talk about Canada



Canadian Government Defends Ann Coulter since she is as bigoted as they are against Muslims aand other Non-Christians - Ann Coulter has said about Muslims that we (America) should invade all their countries and convert them to Chritianity at the point of a gun. Prime Minister has no problem with such statements nor with her statements about the liberals and progressives are involved in a Massive Conspiracy and should be banned from Governments and if necessary incarcerated. She also attacks homosexuals , Non white ie Mexican Immigrants whom she would have shot as they try to cross US border etc.

Jason Kenney Asked About Ann Coulter at Canadian House of Commons during Question Period



Galloway was prevented last year from entering Cnada because he was delivering aid to Gaza and yet the American gov't allowed him in -one would think it would be the Americans who would have refused him entry.

George Galloway on The Hour (CBC) - Intro (Bio)



Ann Coulter she thinks Canada is just fertile ground as fodder for her stand up vulgar in a very real way about as funny as jokes by a member of the American Bund or Nazi Party and Canadian Conservatives love her anyway -Does that make them UnCanadian. In her own country she attacks whomever criticizes America both past and present. Even slavery according to Ann Coulter was not that bad because the slaves became Christians.

"They [Canada] better hope the United States doesn't roll over one night and crush them. They are lucky we allow them to exist on the same continent."

"Conservatives, as a general matter, take the position that you should not punish your friends and reward your enemies. And Canada has become trouble recently... It's -- I suppose it's always, I might add, the worst Americans who end up going there. The Tories after the Revolutionary War, the Vietnam draft dodgers after Vietnam. And now after this election, you have the blue-state people moving up there."

"We could have taken them [Canada] over so easily... [But] all I want is the western portion, the ski areas, the cowboys, and the right-wingers."

"There is also something called, when you're allowed to exist on the same continent of the United States of America, protecting you with a nuclear shield around you, you're polite and you support us when we've been attacked on our own soil. They [Canada] violated that protocol."

"They don't even need to have an army, because they are protected, because they're on the same continent with the United States of America. If we were not the United States of America, Canada -- I mean, we're their trading partner. We keep their economy afloat."

"Because they speak French... We like the English-speaking Canadians."

- Quotes from NitWit Ann Coulter Nov.30,2004 FOX News' Hannity and Colmes

"Canada is, quite simply, not a serious country anymore... And that's why a little invasion is precisely what Canada needs. In the past, Canada has responded to real threats with courage and conviction (some say more Canadians went south to enlist for war in Vietnam than Americans went north to dodge it). If the U.S. were to launch a quick raid, blow up some symbolic but unoccupied structure -- Toronto's CN Tower, or an empty hockey stadium -- Canada would rearm overnight. "

- American conservative Jonah Goldberg, from Bomb Canada, National Review, November 25, 2002.

‘It’s always the bush league schools,’ Coulter contends By Zev Singer and Kristy Nease, Ottawa CitizenMarch 23, 2010 8:41 PM"


OTTAWA — After protesters at the University of Ottawa prevented Ann Coulter from giving a speech Tuesday night, the American conservative writer said it proved the point she came to make — free speech in Canada leaves much to be desired.

Then she said what she really thought of the student protesters who surrounded Marion Hall, making it to unsafe, in the view of her bodyguard, for the pundit to attempt entry.

“The University of Ottawa is really easy to get into, isn’t it?” she said in an interview after the cancelled event. “I never get any trouble at the Ivy League schools. It’s always the bush league schools.”

Coulter said she has been speaking regularly at university campuses for a decade. While she has certainly been heckled, she said this is the first time an engagement has been cancelled because of protesters.

“This has never, ever, ever happened before — even at the stupidest American university,” she said.

Coulter remarked on the reception she has had since entering the country.

“Since I’ve arrived in Canada, I’ve been denounced on the floor of Parliament — which, by the way, is on my bucket list — my posters have been banned, I’ve been accused of committing a crime in a speech that I have not yet given, I was banned by the student council, so welcome to Canada!”


Ann Coulter shows some real chutzpa , audacity, bravado, courage hypocrisy or insanity or just a shrewd operator since she believes all Progressive academics be investigated and fired or even jailed for UnAmerican activities instilling their children with doubts about the Bible or about American history they prefer the myths about America to reality .


Right-wing U.S. firebrand Ann Coulter will file grievance with rights panel by Kenyon Wallace ,National Post, March 23 2010 Vancouver Sun


London, Ont. — Inflammatory right-wing pundit Ann Coulter took aim at a University of Ottawa administrator Monday night, saying an e-mail from the school warning her to use “restraint, respect and consideration” when addressing Ontario students during a speaking tour this week made her a victim of a “hate crime.”

Speaking to students and academics at the University of Western Ontario Monday, Coulter said the e-mail sent to her Friday by Francois Houle, vice-president academic and provost of the University of Ottawa, targeted her as a member of an identifiable group and as such, she will be filing a complaint with the Human Rights Commission alleging hate speech.

“I’m sure the Human Rights Commission will get to the bottom of it,” Coulter said to loud cheers from the 800-strong audience. “I think I’m the victim of a hate crime here. Either what (Mr. Houle) did was a hate crime, or the whole commission is BS.”

In Houle’s e-mail, a copy of which was obtained by the National Post, the administrator urges Coulter to weigh her words with “respect and civility in mind” when she speaks at the University of Ottawa campus Tuesday.

“Our domestic laws, both provincial and federal, delineate freedom of expression (or ‘free speech’) in a manner that is somewhat different than the approach taken in the United States. I therefore encourage you to educate yourself, if need be, as to what is acceptable in Canada and to do so before your planned visit here.”

Houle goes on: “Promoting hatred against any identifiable group would not only be considered inappropriate, but could in fact lead to criminal charges.”



Unfortunately most Conservative Americans those that are aware of our existence have a low opinion of Canada and would agree with Ann Coulter that the partnership between the two nations in their view always favorable for Canada but a loss or potential enemy if it dares to go too far to the left or against Americas security and its corporate interest.
or
and here's a recent example of Ann Coulter shamelessly attacking politicians - it would be funny if she also agreed that she is a stand up comedian but she is seriously and sincerely a "True Believer" in Neocon Ayn Rand style fascism.
She being criticized for what amounts to hate Speech -for calling all Muslims Terrorists , or "Jews Need to be perfected " or that the Terrorist murder of an abortion doctor is seen as an heroic act or a white Terrorist flying a plane into a building an attack on the evil IRS and she and other conservatives seem to be hoping for more violence so more Americans will erroneously come to agree with these Extremist Conservatives which it can then translate into power. All of the leaders of this New or rebranded Conservative Movement made up of Anti-Democracy Neocons & Free Market Ideologues and The Evangelical Fundamentalist Christians an Unholy alliance indeed (what will Pat Robertson have to say about this Faustian deal is it like the one they made in Haiti.)

The new Conservative Movement sounds more like a fascist Theocracy .


CPAC HATE FEST 2010


The participants at this conservative conference again and again are dismissive of the rights of people who are not Americans or further not real Americans-other nations they tell us should bow down to America -
They also are dismissive of any other religion besides Christianity- or what can be referred to as Americanized Christianity which combines an Evangelical Fundamentalism with the American ideals -so it is religion wrapped in the American flag.

What is disturbing is no matter how wrong they are about well just about everything no matter how insane and dangerous the leading Conservative Americans sound other nations including Canada seem still to be in "AWE " of America and Americans -

Ann Coulter does her stand up comedy act at CPAC
Even making fun of Ted Kennedy & his death
His death for Republicans & conservatives they see as a good news item.
These characters have no shame & if they represent "Real Americans" then the peoples outside the United States should take these American conservatives seriously
- they are for civil liberties & rights only for "Real Americans" -they are at heart Fascists who believe that corporations should do as they please and that the rich Elite know what's best for America
-They claim that America is the only country which has been blessed by God and its destiny is being directed by God-
- They are anti-Gay, anti-Unions anti-Medicare , anti-Welfare or social security and want a literacy test for all potential voters-
-so how can they be in favor of spreading democracy and civil liberties if they also believe "only Americans have been given such rights by God"
-Calling Anderson Cooper or other liberals or progressives "Gay" is one of the worst things one can say about someone-so if they retake the Whitehouse tomorrow or in 2012 we can expect anti-Gay legislation

In Their Own Words quotes about Canada by well-known American conservative pundits.from right-on Canada


"Canada can't help us anyway. They have no military to speak of. And the socialistic system they have there has nearly bankrupted them. So Chretien is history. A new administration is upcoming. "

- Bill O'Reilly, December 11, 2003. Canada's budget surplus for the fiscal year 2002-2003 was, in fact, $7 billion.

"For most Americans, Canada is sort of like a case of latent arthritis. We really don't think about it, unless it acts up." - Pat Buchanan, 1992.

"Frankly, I'm worried about Canada beginning to look like Mexico as a major supplier of drugs into the United States." - Bush drug czar John Walters on Canada's push toward decriminalizing marijuana.

"Al Gore and lawsuit tycoon Joel Hyatt today launched their cable television network. And talk about outsourcing: Our friends in Canada - or, as Homer Simpson calls it, 'America Junior' - are supplying the broadcast fodder."
- Right wing talk show host Michael Savage.

"Friendly as they generally are, Canadians have always made me uncomfortable. There's something a shade off about them. They remind me of the aliens in sci-fi movies who move about undetected among the human population until they're tripped up by some joke or colloquialism they haven't been programmed to understand." - CNN host Tucker Carlson, from Chapter 1 of his book Politicians, Partisans, and Parasites.

"The biggest problems in the world, arguably, could be laid at the feet of the elite. You know, can I give you an example of the elite? Dominique de Villepin, Kofi Annan, Jacques Chirac, the guy that runs Canada, Jean Chretien... Who? [talking to director] What? Okay, Paul... whatever..."

- Rush Limbaugh forgetting the name of the Canadian Prime Minister, April 19, 2004.

"Most Canadian physicians who are themselves in need of surgery, for example, scurry across the border to get it done right: the American way. They have found, through experience, that state medical care is too expensive, too slow and inefficient, and, most important, it doesn't provide adequate care for most people."

- Conservative Rush Limbaugh gets the facts wrong in his book Told You So. Limbaugh has been unable to produce even a single anecdotal example of a Canadian doctor who came to the U.S. for any kind of medical treatment.

"Canadians should understand that storm clouds are gathering to the south. Humiliating American kids in a hockey rink is simply not acceptable. Thumbing your nose at 127 dead Americans in Iraq by making defiant statements about where Saddam should be extradited is not a wise policy... One more cheap shot, one more unnecessary taunt, one more insult directed at the USA by you or your minions, and I'll give you a very accurate long-range forecast. It's gonna get mighty cold mighty fast west of the St. Lawrence."

- Fox News host Bill O'Reilly threatens Canada because of the nation's stance against the Iraq War, April 19, 2003. Good to know that the Maritimes will spared Bill's wrath.

"Without the U.S., Canada is essentially Honduras, but colder and much less interesting."
- American conservative pundit Tucker Carlson on the November 30 2004 edition of CNN's Wolf Blitzer Reports.

"We exploit your [addressing Canadian Member of Parliament Carolyn Parrish] natural resources, that's true. But in the end, Canadians with ambition move to the United States. That has been sort of the trend for decades. It says something not very good about Canada. And I think it makes Canadians feel bad about themselves and I understand that."

- American conservative pundit Tucker Carlson on the November 30 2004 edition of CNN's Wolf Blitzer Reports.

"Canada needs the United States. The United States does not need Canada."

"I think if Canada were responsible for its own security -- you would be invaded by Norway if it weren't for the United States."

- American conservative pundit Tucker Carlson on the November 30 2004 edition of CNN's Wolf Blitzer Reports.

"[A]bsolutely the countries will remain allies and there will always be politicians who see it to their benefit to stomp on Bush dolls. But no, I don't think the average Canadian feels -- the average Canadian is busy dogsledding."

- American conservative pundit Tucker Carlson on the November 30 2004 edition of CNN's Wolf Blitzer Reports.

"Canada's essentially -- essentially a made-in-Taiwan version of the United States."

- American conservative pundit Tucker Carlson on the November 30 2004 edition of CNN's Wolf Blitzer Reports.

"I'm surprised there was anybody left in Canada to attend the protests. I noticed that most sort of vigorous, ambitious Canadians, at least almost all comedians in Canada, come to the United States in the end. Doesn't that tell you something about the sort of limpid, flaccid nature of Canadian society, that people with ambition come here? What does that tell you about Canada?"

- American conservative pundit Tucker Carlson on the November 30 2004 edition of CNN's Wolf Blitzer Reports.



"[C]ould our neighbors to the north soon be our enemies? The U.S. finally losing patience with Canada. After roundly criticizing us over Iraq, Canadian politicians have taken to criticizing us over, well, pretty much everything else... So have the Canadians gotten a little bit too big for their britches?"

- Neil Cavuto, host of Fox News' Your World, introducing a segment highlighting recent remarks by Prime Minister Paul Martin that were critical of America's global environmental policies.



"The fact of the matter is -- whether it's your prime minister badmouthing this country over its refusal to sign on to the Kyoto Accord; or whether it's Iraq; or whether its tariffs we slapped on your country because we think your country is cheating on a variety of issues. It's again and again and again. What I'm asking you, whether the Canadian people hate America as much as your politicians seem to?"

- Neil Cavuto, host of Fox News' Your World, during a segment on Canada-US relations, December 14 2005. Throughout the segment, on-screen text read "CANADA: AN ENEMY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA?"


"Here's the problem with telling Canada to stop criticizing the United States: It only eggs them on. Canada is essentially a stalker, stalking the United States, right? Canada has little pictures of us in its bedroom, right? Canada spends all of its time thinking about the United States, obsessing over the United States. It's unrequited love between Canada and the United States. We, meanwhile, don't even know Canada's name. We pay no attention at all."

- Tucker Carlson on the December 15, 2005 edition of MSNBC's The Situation with Tucker Carlson.

"First of all, anybody with any ambition at all, or intelligence, has left Canada and is now living in New York. Second, anybody who sides with Canada internationally in a debate between the U.S. and Canada, say, Belgium, is somebody whose opinion we shouldn't care about in the first place. Third, Canada is a sweet country. It is like your retarded cousin you see at Thanksgiving and sort of pat him on the head. You know, he's nice, but you don't take him seriously. That's Canada."

- Tucker Carlson on the December 15, 2005 edition of MSNBC's The Situation with Tucker Carlson.



"Can Canada really be considered our 'friend' anymore? As someone whose family comes from Canada, a country I grew up loving as a child, it pains me to ask the question. That said, what other question can be asked when the Canadian government not only willingly allows Islamic terrorists into their country, but does nothing to stop them from entering our nation."

- Former Bob Dole press secretary Douglas MacKinnon in a column in The Washington Times, December 16, 2005, repeating the lie that the September 11th terrorists entered the United States through Canada.


and so it goes,
