Feminism: Be Careful What You Wish For Girls—- You Just Might Get It.
Nobody’s Opinion
Not too long ago, I use to post on a men’s site, called MensNewsDaily. It was a place where divorced men could rant about their divorces. I have to admit— the anger, the frustration, the hatred that some of these men had for their ex-wives were confusing to me, mainly because, most of these men had not gotten over the betrayals or the pain. And some of them had been divorced over five years.
That fact amazed me. They told me stories about women that I just couldn’t understand. These women took all their money, and left town. My problem was—(stupid me) I was comparing these women to myself. I thought, since I had gone through a painful divorced, and moved on, why couldn’t they? I did not get anything out of my first husband. Not a thing. He had a better lawyer, who delayed the whole thing for years, and even though my first husband was ordered to pay child support, and health insurance, he did neither. I didn’t have the money to take him back to court, and he knew it.
The way I looked at it, I had the biggest treasure of all: my son.
So, I bucked up, supported us the best I could (with the help of my parents, bless their souls) and went on with my life. The logical thing to do was to forget the past, put the pain behind me, and move on with life because…life is short.
So, why couldn’t these guys? ARE the women of today really that bad?
Sadly, I’m finding out….yes. “Feminism” has turned too many women into a new set of idiotic sharks.
Just last night, I put some comments on a feminist blog. It was by a young woman who went on and on about all the ‘sexism’ in life and patriarchy, and unfairness, and according to her, that was life’s worst problem.
(Wait till she has to worry about kids.)
So, innocently enough, I wrote a few lines and said: Gee, my mother ran her own company, I worked for years in bands with all men, I never saw this “sexism” –give me some examples.
Of course she didn’t…she lashed into me, accusing me of not liking sex, or gays, or didn’t I know there is a war on women?
No…sorry. What war? I don’t like sex? I didn’t even TALK about gays…where the heck did she get all this from? Like the Fed’s money, it came out of thin air.
The last few years, it has started to dawn on me that YES…the young girls of today are simply not thinking. (I’m talking many, not all understand) They have bought into the feminist BS philosophy hook, line and sinker. The teachers union have raised, not only a generation of uneducated kids, but generations of women with no common sense whatsoever.
God, did Gloria Steinem mess up a good thing. Both my mother and I had never even given what we wanted to do a second thought.
Nowadays, the women want, (like the blacks) affirmative action. All men should bow, because all men are bad. This is the propaganda.
As I read on, this girl claimed she really liked men. Well, I thought…there’s hope there I guess., so I kept writing…
I tried to tell her that like her, I didn’t realize that feminism was a well thought- out political propaganda agenda, until later. That feminism is being used to get all women in the workforce, their kids in state schools, where they can introduce socialism, then soft communism, and it’s not a pretty end.
But she was going to a university, where being a ‘feminist’ is a must and all the rage.
The angriest she got in her rant, was when she talked about her mother. No doubt, her mother was a feminist, because her mother left dad with the child to raise. Why…it was just sex. Her mother was a feminist. I don’t think she even realizes she is being like her mother.
Do you see the dichotomy here?
This woman ranted about her life as being wonderful because she could have FREE sex, just like a guy,(unlike her mother, she would probably just abort) but she wasn’t getting the ‘respect’ that a man gets, and that’s ‘sexist.’
It’s the same argument I heard back in the sixties, and it makes me laugh. You can’t be Miley Cyrus and expect ‘respect’ from men. Even a man doing that would get no respect. She said Miley Cyrus was art.
Okay, now we are getting into the absurd. You can call Miley Cyrus a lot of things, but not art.
And what was Obama’s big beef to women? Why, they shouldn’t have to pay for contraceptives…and so he made the rest of us pay for their pills AND their abortions. All these strong women…gee. They need to be taken care of.
Where is their pride?
Hell, I would have been insulted as a person if somebody insinuated that I couldn’t pay for my own contraceptives, but not today’s feminist…oh no. What wimps. They want to be equal? Well then, pay for your own pills, girls. What don’t you get about equality? You want to be respected and be equal?
If you can’t pay your own bills, and your own pills, you are …well, what are you?
Dependent.
What did all that free sex get women? A lower paycheck for one thing. (and millions of abortions) The very things that the women’s movement was supposed to fix, have been multiplied ten-fold. More women are portrayed as sex objects in our movies, the porn industry, the music industry, than ever before. Oh…and no-fault divorce. Great gains gals.
And don’t call them sluts! No! They now have EQUAL sex now! Your body is your own, and therefore, you can raise that child by yourself! You are….liberated! Free at last girls! (Never mind the horrific damage it does to the kids.)
Newsflash: Fathers are a GOOD thing.
I wrote that men ‘built’ the world, and so, she explained how I left out all the women who were scientists….etc, etc….adding onto my plain fact. As IF by saying that men built the world I had muttered some kind of blasphemy. And so I said, I meant every word. Men…built the world. The road, the skyscrapers, roads, cars, my snow blower, the Statue of Liberty……..I’m forever grateful to those guys! I LOVE a good sewer system! God, I just want to kiss them all. (Okay, maybe not all of them.) I’m SO thankful.
What don’t women get? Can’t they stop and think for just one minute? Where in the world would they be without men?
Digging holes in the sand, to cook in. (Thank you Thomas Edison. I love you! I love electricity!)
Any woman who has had a baby, can see from the beginning, boys and girls are different. From the time they are born. That doesn’t mean women can’t be as smart as men, it just means we are different.
Good lord, why is everybody making such a big deal out of nothing?
For the same reason they make a big deal about another very historical normal act of nature–climate change: Control.
Our government knows how to keep the nation divided:. Men VS women, black vs. white, America Vs. the world, Atheist vs. religious, gays vs. straights….and they have good reason to. IF we ever united as a people they would be in REAL trouble.
Today I talked to a very smart man, who went on an angry rant about women. It almost brought tears to my eyes: Every woman he dates, expects the WORLD…and he is just not perfect. That utopia the feminists want…does not exist, and none of the women he dates know this. They all take his money, and leave. He wants so much to find a woman to love, but he just can’t.
No man is perfect. But the young girls today demands to be the top dog. That man has to be perfect, or else they are gone. They don’t need men anymore. Sex, is sex. There is no partnership between a man and a woman anymore.
Not a good sign for the species, and it’s one of the reasons Western Civilization is going by the wayside: We did not populate our nations, and feminism had a lot to do with that.
So Europe brings in the Muslims, and the US brings in the Hispanics in order to survive. Yes, this “I can live without a man” stuff has hurt the best of us all.
While Putin is encouraging marriage to repopulate his country for SURVIVAL…what are WE doing? We are promoting…homosexuality. 
My mother’s generation, men and woman were so much more mature. Marriage was a team effort. But this new generation of women…they have been completely subdued with BS Feminist 101. The leftist have made children of them all.
Children. Which is exactly the plan. A nation full of emotional retarded, dumb-downed and stupid dependent children.
I told her that if Hillary is voted in to be the next President by the feminists, the men vs. women argument is not going to matter. because we will all become “comrades.”
Women will finally be ‘equal’ to men. In fact, when war comes, (And it always does) you will be slaughtered right along with the men, or haven’t you figured that out yet?
Be careful what you wish for girls, you might just get it.
Obama: “So let it be written, so let it be done.”
Nobody Flashes
Since WHEN does a President have the power to make economic rules for companies, workers, WTF? Is this even LEGAL?
NO! What the…has any Congressmen come out in absolute anger at this…abomination? Who gave the President such powers? For that matter, when did our President become King Lawmaker? When? He makes a kill list every morning, now he will have a “So let it be written, so let it be done” powers?
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama is seeking changes in overtime rules that will make millions of workers eligible for time-and-a-half pay for their extra work.
Obama intends to sign a presidential memorandum Thursday directing the Labor Department to propose rules that expand the number of employees who benefit from overtime pay.
The rules would be aimed at salaried workers who make more than $455 a week and those who are ineligible for overtime because they are designated as management even though their supervisory duties are minimal.
The rules do not require congressional action but could take more than a year to implement.
This is…absolutely impeachable, damnable, ridiculous, and tyrannical.
And yet, they keep our eyes on the ocean…..far away.
The Elites of Bilderberg and their Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars
Nobody Remembers
I remember the day that Alex Jones and Michelle Malkin got in a fight in some parking lot. I think they were out in California, and Alex was basically being quite the pig, shouting at her about how she was part of the global conspiracy…
I also remember thinking that it was a shame: I had been listening to Alex for years…while labeled a conspiracy nut by everyone, it’s pretty obvious (after you go back and read the Constitution) that the people of the planet have way too much power, and the fact that they meet under military guard at Bilderberg meetings once a year, is proof that what they are up to is no good. Alex deals with the global…
Michelle on the other hand, is beyond question, an upstanding and remarkable woman with high intelligence. I’ve always said she would make a great President…
It’s like having your two kids fighting…it was a sad day for me. While Michelle stays on the local politics, Alex is busy putting the whole world geopolitics together. From their point of views, both of them are trying to right the wrongs they see before them. Alex was in the wrong that day, and I’m still sad about it.
But, back to the Bilderberg group; As you know, the media ignores their meetings, because the most powerful people in the world insists on secrecy, and so, they get it.
All Attended Bilderberg meetings
But, one day in 1979, someone found their agenda quite by accident:
Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars, An Introduction Programming Manual was uncovered quite by accident on July 7, 1986 when an employee of Boeing Aircraft Co. purchased a surplus IBM copier for scrap parts at a sale, and discovered inside details of a plan, hatched in the embryonic days of the “Cold War” which called for control of the masses through manipulation of industry, peoples’ pastimes, education and political leanings.
It was titled Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars
An Introductory Programming Manual: Operations Research: Technical Manual TM-SW7905.1
Here’s a few of the statements that caught my eye:
The solution of today’s problems requires an approach which is ruthlessly candid, with no agonizing over the religious moral or cultural values. You have qualified for this project because of you ability to look at human society with cold objectivity, and yet analyze and discuss your observations and conclusions with others of similar intellectual capacity without a loss of discretion or humility. Such virtues are exercised in your own best interest . Do no deviate from them.
Silent weapon technology has evolved from Operations Research a strategic and tactical methodology developed under the military management (Eisenhower) in England during World War II. The original purpose of Operation Research was to study the strategic and tactical problems of air and land defense with the objective of effective use of limited military resources against foreign enemies (I.e., logistics) It was soon recognized by those in positions of power that the same methods might be useful for totally controlling a society.
So it goes on to say that Harvard started building this research project (how to manipulate the masses) and in 1954 the Quiet War was quietly declared by the elite at Bilderberg. They decided that they needed to control the economy:
In order to achieve a totally predictable economy, the low class elements of the society must be brought under total control. In order to achieve such conformity, the lower class family unit must be disintegrated by a process of increasing preoccupation and of the parents and the establishment of government operated day care centers for the occupationally orphaned children.
Hillary has wanted this for YEARS. It was in her book, “It Takes a Village.” Bush also pushed this, and now Obama is setting up preschools everywhere. If they could get the BABIES they would be even more happy. This isn’t a conspiracy, it’s a fact. They want your kids, period, and Common Core is the final push for their mental takeover.
Anyway, it gets into economic shock testing, economic amplifiers, and economic weapons…all researched mathematically at Harvard. What they did was take science logistics, math, etc, and make a social engineering model.
In the Diversion summary it said this:
Media: Keep the adult public attention diverted away from the real social issues, and captivated by matter of no real important.
Schools: Keep the young public ignorant of real mathematics, real economics, real law, and real history.
Entertainment: Keep the public entertainment below a sixth grade level.
Work: Keep the public busy, busy, busy, with no time to think.
Political structure: Dependency.
Detach the child from the mother and father at an earlier age.
Conspiracy or not: This IS happening.
Okay, you get the drift, pretty much what we see is happening in the news every single day: but, is this a REAL document, or is it a theory devolved by an author who is watching the world, and guessed at what they are doing? And so he said he ‘found’ it in a copier.
Nobody Knows.
And Frankly, I don’t think it matters. Obamacare is proof enough that the elites have already thought of a convenient way to “get the old out, and the new in.”
Obamacare is a quiet holocaust, and a not so quiet war on all of America. Sadly, not all of America realizes it yet.
This manifesto was really about how to keep the elites with all the wealth, and the poor stupid, and dependent.
Read some of it here, and decide for yourself…..Or MAYBE…we should start passing it around, and start asking the people at the Bilderberg meetings to…
Explain.
Nobody Knows: Passports, GOP, U.N., Oligarths, McCain
Nobody Knows
Nobody Knows where the heck that darn plane with 277 people is. But what we do now know, is that millions of passports are stolen every year, and MILLIONS of people are boarding on planes in countries all over the world, and not everyone is checking their underwear.
Me…wondering…
Nobody Knows why the GOP is seething with hatred of Snowden, from Krauthammer, to Karl Rove, to the whole FOX TV network…but at the GOP convention, the NSA unconstitutional surveillance of everything in our lives was the TOP concern. Is it any wonder the old GOP has lost the youth vote to Obama?
Nobody Knows why Marco Rubio is the only one warning about the plans for the U.N to take over the internet and control it….and TAX it. How many more years of free internet do we have? Nobody Knows.
Nobody Knows why there will be only 3 companies controlling the banana industry. Apple and Samsung are going to merge to control 1/3 of the market, and merging one big company with another has been going on since Bill Clinton. Google controls 67 percent of the market. Our politicians LOVE monopolies. Oligarchs are controlling America…and yet, not one peep from anyone in Congress. We ARE Russia— maybe we should just merge.
Nobody Knows why Paris is the number one tourist destination. Whatever happened to Disneyworld? I don’t know too many Americans going to Paris, do you?
Nobody Knows that last night I was listening to Coast to Coast when an earthquake hit northern California, Mexico, and West Virginia. And Nobody Knows why everyone ignored it today.
Nobody Knows why McConnell today said he was going to “crush the tea party.” in Virginia. Does he realized he just sealed his fate?
Nobody Knows that WHY I hang pictures on every space of my office. If I have to spend so much time in this one room, I might as well fill it with my favorite people.
Nobody Knows why John McCain wants to run again for the Senate again, but comrades…come on: Guess. If John McCain his Senate reelection, I’m filing for John McCain reparations, I have SUFFERED watching that man.
Nobody Knows that it’s not the forever evil man who is killing off lions…it’s other lions. They kill each other all the time, the babies…other males, even other females. And yet…in the words of Dave Barry…
The United Nations does nothing, and just about everybody knows why.
Would Lois Lerner Even TELL The Truth? Can a Pig Drive a Car?
Nobody Wonders
Lois Lerner pleated the “5th” again today in front of Congress, who is trying to figure out just WHO was using the IRS to go after Tea Party organizations.
Congress could grant her immunity, but even if they did grant her immunity for her testimony— so what? As we see from this bold-faced lie from the NSA chief, nothing would happen to her. She could lie, about how innocent she was, and lie about Obama’s involvement, and lie, lie, and lie some more.
Would Congress hold her for perjury? Would Eric Holder? No, they would probably all thank her for her time.
Nobody Wonders…why the powerful continue to be untouchable–but she is clearly not afraid, Obama has his back…I mean HER back.
But if you or I committed perjury?
NO hole would be big enough.
The REAL Conspiracy: Why Hillary Did Not Tell Us About Obama
Nobody Knows
Michael Shrimpton is a Specialist in National Security and Constitutional Law, also an expert in Strategic Intelligence and Counter-Terrorism. He is also a professor of Intelligence Studies with the Department of National Security, and Intelligence and Space Studies. He teaches at the Master level in American Military University.
Not exactly a conspiracy nut.
I have always believed that Obama was not vetted out, but Nobody Knows why? Since it seems that Giuliani, and the Clintons, and who the heck else knew, that Obama was not qualified to be President? WHY did none of these people think enough of the country to tell us? To expose him as the fraud he is?
Even Hillary, who would have benefitted the most? Why?
To me, the fact that a lot of people knew and yet, said nothing, is just as troubling as the fact that Obama is in office and destroying the country.
THAT is the real conspiracy.
(Thanks to amfortas)
Nobody’s Perfect: John Kerry VS The Alligator
Nobody’s Perfect
This week we have our “What button?” new Secretary of State, Swifty Boat Captain, John Kerry, stating that the USSR was no threat to any and the cold war was over and then making fun of Sarah Palin AND Mitt Romney for claiming that yes, Russia is to be watched.
And they were RIGHT. Russia has invaded the Ukraine.
And so, still in shock at the fact that he was wrong, and how it’s just not in his cultural upbringing to even think that Russia would even DARE act unlike a fellow civilized member of Harvard, John Kerry, said this:
“It would be very difficult for me to understand how Russia would reconcile its position on Libya, its position on Syria, its warnings against intervention in another country and then not respect the sovereignty of Ukraine and the will of the people there,” Kerry said.
“We’re hoping that Russia will not see this as a sort of continuation of the Cold War, we don’t see it that way,” Kerry said Wednesday on “Andrea Mitchell Reports” on MSNBC. “We do not believe this should be an East-West, Russia-United States — this is not ‘Rocky IV.’”
“It’s an incredible act of aggression…It is a really a stunning willful choice by President Putin to invade to another country.
“You just don’t in the 21st century behave in 19th century fashion by invading another country on completely trumped-up pretext isolate Russia with respect to this invasion. “
Well, Kerry has certainly come out with a bundle of good quotes to explain his shock and awe. He just didn’t see this coming.
And neither did the alligator, who for years, has had no fear from any other creature on the planet. Why be swallowed by a mere snake? Impossible! To think, that silly crane, and that turtle warned him…really. Don’t they know NOBODY would dare to attack him?
Poor guy.
So, who wins the Nobody’s Perfect Award for the week?
Why, John Kerry of course! An alligator, had a real disadvantaged. He can’t read.
Evidently, John Kerry doesn’t either, but he could take out a few history books…you know. Just to make us all feel a bit safer…he is after all…
SECRETARY OF STATE!!! 
Good god.
If Anyone Can Make You Terminally Ill, It’s Harry Reid.
Nobody Cares
Harry Reid, on the floor of the Senate WARNED the American people about liars—-you know, all the people dying of cancer who just lost their insurance, and are upset that they are going to die. Harry is mad that those people have the nerve to speak up.
Also, Harry had to throw in some dirt on those unpatriotic guys known as the Koch brothers who are buying America.
It’s not just the GOP anymore, nowadays the American enemies are it’s people, and if they happen to have money…oh…god forbid.
Well gee…maybe the Koch brothers are trying to buy American BACK from George Soros, Planned Parenthood, the Ford Foundation, the teachers unions, the AFL-CIO, G.E., the mob, Hollywood, China, Saudi Arabia, the Muslim Brotherhood…let’s see…did I miss any Obama donators? Yep. Sorry. You and I both have things to do…like wave American flags.
Harry doesn’t have to lie about HIS health care though…his employer pays for it.
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D.-Nev.), whose salary is $193,400 a year, said he has purchased a health care plan through the D.C. Obamacare exchange and that he is accepting the federal subsidy that can run up up to $11,378 per year for a member of Congress to purchase a plan on that exchange.
“I’m just like 150 million other people in America,” Reid said. “My employer helps me pay for my health care.”
So, if Harry gets his wish and we go to a one-party system, and we get our healthcare from the government, does that mean that our government will then be our employer? And if we make $193,00 will we get subsidies just like Harry?
Nobody Cares about my opinion on the matter of the mobster Harry Reid, but in my opinion, the closest that Harry will ever get to a brainstorm is a light drizzle. I say we all write the Koch brothers and ask them where we can send our donations in order to get rid of Harry Reid.
I’m sure some people in Las Vegas have some great ideas on the subject.
Nobody Knows: Gays, Immigrants, Holder, Pizza…
Nobody Knows
Nobody Knows if Obama and John Boehner solved how to pass amnesty this morning at the White House, but what Alex Sink, a democrat running to represent Florida, showed in her almost blatantly funny statement, is that most democrats are just worried about WHO is going to landscape their mansions. It’s a concern.
“We need to bring these people out of the shadows so that they’re paying into social security, paying into Medicare, they’re paying federal income taxes,” she said. “So they’re not security issues, but they have to earn their way, but we need immigration reform.”
Nobody Knows, but nobody can guess that if the immigrants stopped coming, Americans would be doing those jobs…and wages would, just by free market demand, have to go up. And that’s what the big companies don’t want now do they?
Nobody Knows, but– we are finding out, Obamacare demands that all calories of food must now be listed by restaurants. So, is Obama going to excuse all the pizza delivery places from spending the money and listing the calories on their pizza boxes until AFTER the 2014 elections to save his butt? No doubt, he will. And nobody knows if listing calories is going to keep anybody from getting extra cheese.
Nobody Knows that the Supreme Court has ruled that the police can gather DNA from anyone whenever they want. And nobody is pretty certain they already have most everyone’s. Anyone born in America has their blood taken right after birth, illegal or not.
Nobody Knows why Chuck Hagel, our Secretary of Defense, is taking our military back to pre-WWII levels when he says we are in more danger now than we have ever been.
Oh, that makes sense.
Hagel stressed that such changes entail risk. He said—
“We are entering an era where American dominance on the seas, in the skies and in space can no longer be taken for granted.”
So therefore, we can’t win, so we should just retreat. Nobody Knows why the democrats hate the military, but they do. Bill Clinton did such a fine job of downsizing our military it took George W. Bush almost 9 months to build it back up enough to attack Iraq. Going to the U.N. was just a stall. (That’s my opinion)
And while the veterans get small pay raises, Congress and their government lackeys ALWAYS get a raise.
Nobody Knows where Hagel is going to ‘store’ all our unused military hardware, sell it to China?
Nobody Knows just when Russell Crowe is going to find out…he’s not really Noah. 
Nobody Knows that I actually heard reported today on the radio that “hate groups’ have gone down in the last year. ‘Hate groups” being those white conservative radicals who were all in a hussy about Obama trying to take their guns away. Right. You cannot not hate anyone who tries to deprive you of your rights.
Nobody Knows when anyone who hates anything, will be arrested. (First they came for the Jews…and I said nothing….)
Nobody Knows how Eric Holder can tell the state attorney generals to just ignore the laws in their state and go ahead and sanction gay marriage and rights, and then have the audacity to say our founders had gays in mind when they wrote our founding documents.
Nobody Knows how John McCain got to be a Senator from Arizona. Somebody enlightened me.
Nobody Knows why some people are night people and some people are day people, a subject that I can’t seem to find an answer to. SCN?
And Nobody Knows why the heck we are talking about “gay rights” all day long and into the sunset when America has MUCH bigger problems…like a Marxist President who is completely gone off the rails and plans to destroy the country beyond all recognition. Tell me, what’s more important than that?
Nobody knows how Congress became so corrupted that nobody will impeach him.
And Nobody knows that unlike Jane Fonda, I noticed butterflies, polar bears, kittens, pregnant women, baby elephants and all the beauty all around this planet when I was about…four.
What took her so long?
Will the Wall Street Bankers Escape the Hawk?
Nobody Cares
It’s being reported that 20 very young bank executives all over the world, have committed suicide. One guy “jumped’ off the 33rd floor (raising eyebrows about the 33 masons) another put six nails into his brain with a nail gun.
(Let’s call the Netherlands)
Bloomberg is reporting this morning that former Federal Reserve economist Mike Dueker was found dead in an apparent suicide near Tacoma, Washington. Normally HousingWire wouldn’t cover deaths in the industry, but what’s strange is that Dueker is the third prominent banker found dead since Sunday.
On Sunday, William Broeksmit, 58, former senior manager for Deutsche Bank, was found hanging in his home, also an apparent suicide.
On Tuesday, Gabriel Magee, 39, vice president at JPMorgan Chase & Co’s (JPM) London headquarters, apparently jumped to his death from a building in the Canary Wharf area.
Evidently most of these guys were happy campers, making a nice living…so at least it’s nice to know that they are not Michelle Obama’s list as “knuckleheads.” because no doubt they all had signed up for Obamacare.
I guess this would be funny, if we didn’t know that China has not bought any of our bonds for two years, our dollar is coming out of thin air, and the whole world is dropping the petrol dollar. Not to mention—everybody who knows something is telling you to hide your gold in your back yard.
And on that happy note, I’ll leave you with a happy video to wonder…what it all means.
Will the nobody squirrel escape? Hint: He did not work for JP Morgan.
Nobody Remembers Elihu Root and the ‘Invisible Government’
Nobody Remembers
Elihu Root was the Secretary of War (1899-1903) under McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt and Secretary of State(1905-1909) under Roosevelt. After that he became a Senator from New York (1909-15) and received the Nobel Peace Prize. At the Constitutional Convention of the State of New York, on August 30, 1915, he had a lot to say about the evils of the “invisible government” that he said had run New York for many years. He said that the government was not elected but was responsible only to the party boss in control of the state. He wanted to change the system that he viewed as corrupt.
Here’s a few excerpts from his speech:
What is the government of this state? What has it been doing during the forty years of my acquaintance with it? The government of the constitution? Oh, no: not half the time or halfway. For I don’t remember how many years, Mr. Conkling was the supreme ruler in the state: the governor did not count, the legislature did not count, comptroller’s and secretaries of state and whatnot did not count. It was what Mr. Conkling said, and in a great outburst of public rage he was pulled down.
Then Mr. Platt ruled the state: for nigh twenty years.
The party leader is elected by no one, accountable to no one, bound by no oath of office, removable by no one. I don’t criticize the men of the invisible government. How can I? I have known them all, and among them have been some of my dearest friends. But it is all wrong. It is all wrong that a government not authorized by the people should be continued superior to the government that is authorized by the people.
How it is accomplished? Mr. Chairmen it is done by patronage. The elected officer or the appointed officer, who is to be held responsible for the administration of his office desired to get men into the different positions of his office who will do the work in a way that is creditable to him and his administration. Whether it be a president appointing a judge, or a governor appointing a superintendent of public works, whatever it may be.
How is it about the boss? He has to urge the appointment of men whose appointment will consolidate his power and preserve the organization. The invisible government proceeds to build up and maintain it power by a reversal of the fundamental principle of good government, which is that men should be selected to perform the duties of the office,
The true one, looks upon appointment to office with a view to the service that can be given to the public. The other the false one, looks upon appointment to office with a view to what can be gotten out of it. A great number of men are put on the payrolls as a matter of patronage not of service, but of party patronage.
(Can you say Ambassador to Norway?)
Both parties are alike, all parties are alike. The system extends thorough all.
At the end of his speech this:
I have been told forty times since this Convention met that you cannot change it. We can try, can’t we? I deny that we cannot change it. I repel that cynical assumption which is born of the lethargy that comes from poisoned air during all these years. I assert that this perversion of democracy, this robbing democracy of its virility can be changed.
We can take this one step toward, not robbing the people of their part in government but toward robbing an irresponsible autocracy of its indefensible and unjust and undemocratic control of government, and return it to the people to be exercised by the men of their choice and their control. We cannot change it in a moment but we can do our share.
When I read it, I thought of the Bushes, the Clinton’s, Reid and Boehner…because as I have said, it’s the leaders of both houses that control everything. And the best man at stacking the deck against the common man with his invisible government is our current ‘President’, Barack Obama.
And here, way back in 1915, Elihu Root, wanted to do something to break the monopoly of the ‘invisible government.”
Nobody Thinks Mr. Root was right, and yet…things remain the same these 99 years later.
Obama’s House of Cards
Nobody’s Opinion
Right before this interview today on George Stephanopoulos This Week, they showed “President” Obama talking about Kevin’s Spacey’s very popular Netflix program: House of Cards. (I could NOT find Obama’s take anywhere on Youtube) Obama laughed as he usually does when caught in a lie, and remarked that House of Cards was simply a fantasy, but he sure wished that he was like Frank Underwood (Kevin Spacey’s character) because he could get a lot more done.
If you haven’t seen House of Cards, it’s like the West Wing, but more realistic.
Obama’s comment reminded me of a comment that President George W. Bush’s Quote made while HE was President.
“I told all four that there are going to be some times where we don’t agree with each other, but that’s OK. If this were a dictatorship, it would be a heck of a lot easier, just so long as I’m the dictator,” Bush joked.—CNN.com, December 18, 2000
Every conservative that watches Frank Underwood on House of Cards, thinks he is watching every democratic politician that every graced the halls of power. George Stephanopoulos and Obama have gone out their way in interviews to reiterate how NOTHING like the program ever happens in real life Washington D.C..
Right.
The problem I have is deciding if Obama is more like Frank Underwood or Tony Soprano. Remember when he said when they bring a knife to the fight, he will bring a gun?
Before you say, “He was just kidding.”…ask yourself: Should any politician even talk that way?
House of Cards has become a big hit. As the writer said tonight, where else are you going to find so much drama but in Washington?
Kevin says in the beginning of this interview, most people think that the show is 99 percent correct. Many of us do believe that our politicians, murder, cheat, steal, and do just about everything under the sun, and to think this, is not farfetched at all. It’s not a fantasy. Just turn on your TV set.
What’s even more impossible to believe, is that so many people still don’t think our government would resort to such measures.
But…we know, by the polls, that both Congress and the President are at all-time lows…so I’d say we’re getting there. And that’s the point: THEY know it too.
(What to do about it? )
We see it right before our eyes. Corruption is at the highest levels of our government and nobody ever goes to jail. The Clintons alone had at least 60 people who worked for them over the years, all mysteriously die—whether by accident, or heart attacks. What are the odds?
When Hillary Clinton, as First Lady, ran into Vince Foster’s office to shred documents, after he ‘killed’ himself, and before the police could get there—well—- it didn’t exactly make her look innocent. What was she looking for?
When Obama lies almost every day, even at the expense of people losing jobs and medical care, can we expect him NOT to be capable of murder?
Many Americans think so, and that’s why the series is so popular. Kevin is brilliant in House of Cards, but notice, at the end of this interview he makes the same point about politicians that Steve Spielberg made in Lincoln—which is: Presidents must commit a few crimes to get the end result they want. In LBJ’s case it was the passage of three civil rights bills. Therefore the ends justify the means. It’s the one solid mantra of any ‘progressive.’ They live by that, and it excuses every single crime they make. That’s why Sibelius was never held responsible, or the IRS, never held responsible, or Hillary Clinton, never held responsible….
House of Cards at My House
(Hell, Bill Clinton knowingly gave blood filled with AIDS to Canada while governor of Arkansas, and he was never held responsible.)
Kevin Spacey is a liberal last time I checked, and the new series mentions the Tea Party, the elections coming up…and some themes of liberals, like the “rapes’ of the military, and big businesses controlling the White House. But, Kevin’s character is a democratic rascal…so House of Cards is going to be a big hit with the majority of the American people, just like 24 was.
But— I remind myself, the very popular 24 helped American get used to the idea of electing the first black President by portraying him as one of the most honest, politicians to ever grace the White House–the actor himself even admitted this:
Haysbert believes that his playing of David Palmer on 24 helped Barack Obama—whom Haysbert supported—to win the 2008 Democratic presidential nomination.[10][11]–Wikipedia
How did that turn out? Obama was NOT the honest President from 24, in fact, he was the exact opposite.
So…Are we being manipulated again, with the very lovable character of Frank Underwood?
Wasn’t Tony Soprano lovable? Are you seeing the pattern?
Is the House of Cards just another social propaganda mechanism to get the masses of conservatives left in America, hooked on a pop culture’s series, only to find out, that Hollywood puts out the baited hook, you get addicted, then all of a sudden you are accepting the fact that Presidents should be able to kill, cheat, lie and destroy, for the benefit of –the American people?
A ruthless man, is to be admired?
And would Hollywood participate in such deception?
That thought has been a giant dichotomy to me. Why would Steven Spielberg make such a strong stand and support for Israel, and then come out and support Obama.
Or—is it always just about the money?
Do they try to write the truth in-between the lines, but are as duplicitous to the politicians as the politicians are to us?
Nobody Knows, but I wish I did. And that’s the theme I am coming up with. Many democrats believe the American people are not capable of running their own lives and only the ELITES know what is good for us, and I’ve even heard some democrats say that they were GLAD that Obama lied to the people, otherwise Obamacare would have never been passed.
And if that’s true, then I think it’s about time we blew Obama’s flimsy and corrupt House of Cards back to Hollywood.
Frank Underwood, would, I HOPE— be pleased.
Nobody Wonders—A LOT.
Nobody Wonders
—How they can turn characters like Noah from the Bible, into a liberal propaganda movie about too many people being on the earth. I suppose that will be the excuse given from God. God WAS a liberal who decided to kill all those pesky people with a flood.
—How Obama can dictate laws by which the businesses of the country must obey, or be forced to pay fines or go to jail.
___How, because he rules by his pen, we cannot call factually call him a fascist dictator.
—How they can keep claiming that America is in recovery when a third of its people are out of work.
—-How Obama can give raises to contractors with the stroke of his pen.
—-How the stock market can keep making billions for the rich, while the rest of the country’s economy slowly dies.
—How a Republican can be elected Mayor of San Diago, despite the unions and Obama’s democratic machine working overtime in a district where 63 percent of the votes went to Obama, and the press ignore it, and what this means for Marco Rubio
___How the Obama can give the most expensive state dinner…with the finest and most expensive food and decor, and then lecture us on the rich and poor, and expect everyone to think HE deserves to waste our money on himself.
—How Obama can delay his horrible Obama mandates on businesses until after all elections, just because everyone is finding out how much he lied–and let the little people suffer, even though he claims to be against ‘the rich’. If he is against the rich, stop giving them breaks.
—How Obama can punish anyone in buseinsses who fires someone because of the expense of Obamcare, thereby depriving everyone of free speech for fear of a tax penalty.
—How almost all of Congress remains silent, on anything he does, including giving himself more money each and every year, simply because he CAN due to the color of his skin.
—Why we have to feel sorry for the children of immigrants who did not commit the crime of their parents, but not for the white people whose ancestors committed the crimes of slavery.
—and WHY my ancestors, who were the ONLY founders who had no slaves ON PRINCIPLE, were not given a monument in Washington D.C.
Wow…I’m in a bad mood..
About
I am a nobody. If the different classes of America were color-coded, I would be in the yucky brown, one rung up from the bottom. I grew up in Naples, Florida and live near the Mississippi River now with my husband and two dogs. I am part of the slowly disappearing middle-class. I was a musician most of my life: drummer/singer/keyboards—but I retired before the plastic surgery flu hit. I have no degrees, which could be a good thing…depending on how you view our educational system. I do have three patents…but that really doesn’t make me a somebody. The one thing that is constant in my life is my OPINIONS, which i have more than perhaps even Carl Sagan could have imagined…mostly political. (yes…my ancestors were crabby buggers)
Hopefully other nobody’s will put their opinions on my site. But, if you happen to be a somebody, you’re more than welcomed to help out.
It’s my Nobody Opinion that Nobody’s Perfect, and Nobody Cares, that Nobody Knows why Nobody Wins, and when that happens, Nobody Wonders, why Nobody Flashes, why Nobody’s Fooled, but then Nobody remembers that Nobody ALWAYS Reports the truth.
