Ayers denied…

There is greater justice to come for Bill Ayers,  trust-fund baby,  domestic terrorist,   and great friend of his Oneness,  but just a bit of it has  already arrived —  he has been denied emeritus status by the University of Chicago.

Patriotism in a tiny package…

leave a comment »

A squirrel living in a spruce tree in a cemetery in  Port Huron,  Michigan,   has taken advantage of the plethora of small American flags decorating graves for Memorial Day.

Is it a thief?    Yes,  but a patriotic one,  and I would much prefer to see flags in a squirrel’s cozy nest than under Bill Ayers’ foot,  wouldn’t you?

Civilian force arises…

with 2 comments

The House has come up with the solution to unemployment — make everybody work for the government!    The GIVE Act doesn’t mandate your volunteer service, but this article makes it clear that’s coming.

The key point is that it provides  for determining whether a “mandatory” program should be adopted,  and it obviously already knows the answer since it gos on about uniforms and a public service academy.

I have read  dozens of laws and proclamations from communist and socialist countries over the years,  and there is little difference between them and the GIVE Act.

Americorps is already touting its funding under the recovery act, here.

As I recall, His Oneness promised to expand the paid volunteer program from 75,000 to 250,000.   The House has already passed a bill to do that as well as create additional “service” programs, and Senators Kennedy and Grassley have a similar bill in the Senate.

Activist groups like ACORN end up placing the “volunteers” into their own programs,  which have a lot to do with lobbying for more federal money,  and damned little to do with actually helping people or communities.    It’s also a dandy opportunity to further brainwash the youngsters into believing that the government is the arbiter of doing good.

This is about as dangerous as the economic measures the Obama administration wants to take.    Remember that Obama’s pal, domestic terrorist Bill Ayers,  has been trying to do from the inside of the educational system via propaganda for years that which he failed to do from the outside with violence.

UPDATE:  Even the San Francisco Examiner detects the odor of Big Brother.

just a guy…

Bill Ayers has graduated from just a guy in the neighborhood, to an English professor, to an education professor (isn’t that an oxymoron?), to someone Obama served on a board with.

But check out this link from Verum Serum:

Verum Serum

He and Ayers had offices on the same floor of a not-very-big building for 3 years.  Assuming Obama paid as much attention to his state Senate job as he does his national office, even with his other jobs, he still had plenty of time to visit this office.  But he never ran into Ayers in the hallway?
