Keeping Men Out Of Women’s Bathrooms Against American Values Or Something

By William Teach June 11, 2016 – 7:34 am

There was a time, not that long ago, when public officials making insane pronouncements would have been run out of town on a rail. Now? They feel fully empowered to be utterly stupid

(Daily Caller) Legislation that keeps men out of women’s bathrooms is directly contrary to American values, according to assistant attorney general Vanita Gupta, who heads up the Department of Justice’s (DOJ) Civil Rights Division.

Gupta made the claim at a forum held on Tuesday by the Washington Council of Lawyers.

“Even after the Supreme Court’s landmark gay marriage decision last year in Obergefell v. Hodges that guaranteed all people ‘equal dignity in the eyes of the law,’ we see new efforts to deny LGBTI individuals the respect they deserve and the protection our laws guarantee,” Gupta said.

“And let me add this — efforts like House Bill 2 in North Carolina not only violate the laws that govern our nation, but also the values that define us as a people,” she continued.

There’s no other way to put it, people Gupta are utter nutjobs, who are so far outside the mainstream that they need a giant telescope to even view it. For most of humanity’s time, men and women used the bathroom, locker room, and showers that conform to their biology. There were obviously exceptions. In the modern era, though, these irresponsible and deranged Leftists want to use the power of government to force citizens to accept allowing fake men in the bathrooms, locker rooms, and showers of real women. Even those where underage women go.

They’ve decided to place the so-called rights of those who are confused over those of real, biological women.

Gupta made a similar claim in a speech Wednesday at a civil rights symposium hosted by the U.S. Attorneys Office.

“We also believe that America cannot reach its full potential and promise until every person in this country — regardless of his or her sexual orientation or gender identity — can live free from discrimination, harassment and violence,” she said before repeating her claim that H.B. 2 is contrary to “the values that define us as a people.”

It’s psychopathic pronouncements like this that almost make me want to vote for Donald Trump, giving him the chance to fire these nutters and replace them with people of sound mind.

Political Party Against Walls At Border Good With Walls At Democratic Convention

By William Teach June 11, 2016 – 7:10 am

Democrats have, for the most part, whined about the calls for a wall on the southern border, meant to stop those coming across it illegally. Not all those people are (supposedly) just coming for a better life. Many are Bad Actions, involved in criminal ventures. It is a specific duty in the US Constitution. Article I, Section 8 “To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;”, and Article 4 Section 4 “The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened), against domestic Violence.” Democrats do not like this. You even have them attempting to subvert the borders.

But, what about at their own convention?

(NBC Philly) Security at the Sports Complex during the Democratic National Convention next month will include “no-scale fencing” to enclose the Wells Fargo Center and Xfinity Live!, the Secret Service special agent in charge said in an interview Thursday.

But exact boundaries of the security perimeter around the sports arena, where the convention will take place July 25-28, are not yet finalized, Special Agent James Henry told NBC10.com.

“No scale fencing.” Suddenly, Democrats love walls. Can’t be having the riff raff mill around in the vicinity of the Party big wigs. As the most liked comment at the article reads

The irony is overwhelming isn’t it? Don’t build any walls to keep undesireable illegals out of the U.S. because that would be “raaaccciiissst”, but build a wall around yourselves to keep the “undesireables” out. Bwahahaha.

They’re suddenly good with protest zone, as well

FDR Park, which is across South Broad Street from the arena, has been designated a protest zone by the city. Pro-Bernie Sanders protesters have secured permits to demonstrate from Sunday through Thursday of the DNC week. In applying for those permits, protest organizers estimated up to 30,000 people could take part.

Usually, Democrats are against protest zones. Except when the protests are against them. Then they want zones. Which is foolhardy, because it makes it much easier for everyone to see the wackadoodle Leftists doing their wackadoodle thing. It would be smarter to spread the bat guano insanity out a bit, don’t you think?

Lesbian Activist Booted From Gay Pride Parade

By William Teach June 10, 2016 – 3:35 pm

Why, you ask? She’s not sufficiently pious to the belief that people who are gender confused should be allowed to use whatever bathroom, locker room, and shower they want whenever they want (and that little problem of bad people taking advantage of the idiotic policies)

(Washington Times) Miriam Ben-Shalom was invited to serve as grand marshal of the Milwaukee Pride Parade, but that was before event organizers noticed the lesbian activist’s outspoken opposition to transgender-inclusive bathroom policies on social media.

Event organizers said Ms. Ben-Shalom’s criticisms of the transgender movement disqualify her from leading the parade.

“Her mindsets don’t line up with ours at this time,” Brent Holmes, who coordinates the parade, told FOX6.

Ms. Ben-Shalom is a renowned figure in the gay-rights movement. She was the first gay military service member to be reinstated after being discharged over her sexuality, and her activism includes twice chaining herself to the White House fence in protest of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”

Free Thought and a difference of opinion are Wrongthink, and is Not Allowed

“If I have to march in lock step to some political line, then to heck with it,” she told FOX6. “Because I don’t march in lock step.”

She is actually very concerned with pretenders raking advantage if these foolish policies. Of course, she also thinks that transgender women are not really women, making her a Heretic to be metaphorically burned at the stake. Because a real bonfire would release to much carbon pollution.

In 2009, Trump Was Big Believer In “Climate Action”

By William Teach June 10, 2016 – 10:26 am

This comes via Eric Worrall at Watts Up With That?

(Grist)  As negotiators headed to Copenhagen in December 2009 to forge a global climate pact, concerned U.S. business leaders and liberal luminaries took out a full-page ad in the New York Times calling for aggressive climate action. In an open letter to President Obama and the U.S. Congress, they declared: “If we fail to act now, it is scientifically irrefutable that there will be catastrophic and irreversible consequences for humanity and our planet.”

One of the signatories of that letter: Donald Trump.

Also signed by Trump’s three adult children, the letter called for passage of U.S. climate legislation, investment in the clean energy economy, and leadership to inspire the rest of the world to join the fight against climate change.

“We support your effort to ensure meaningful and effective measures to control climate change, an immediate challenge facing the United States and the world today,” the letter tells the president and Congress. “Please allow us, the United States of America, to serve in modeling the change necessary to protect humanity and our planet.”

You can see the ad over at Grist. Let’s note that it starts out with

“Additionally, we urge you, our government, to strengthen and pass United States legislation, and lead the world by example. We support your effort to ensure meaningful and effective measures to control climate change, an immediate challenge facing the United States and the world today.”

That is primarily directed at Obama, who was heading to Copenhagen. So, why the change in what Trump says he believes? Worrall attempts to link it to Climategate, and ends noting

Was it Climategate which changed Donald Trump’s mind? We won’t know unless Trump chooses to speak on this issue. I suspect though if you have a lot of money, and scam artists are always circling, you have to develop a pretty well tuned BS meter. There is a lot in the Climategate scandal, to shake the confidence of even the most committed climate activist.

Trump has never explained why he is a skeptic, beyond stating that it is a scam foisted by the Chinese, which is ridiculous. And, I’m not sure what Worrall thinks of Trump, whether he is a supporter or not, but, sorry, Eric, it is a weak defense of Trump. Grist further notes

Other than that, Trump has been fairly consistent in his views on climate change — or consistent for Trump. Two months after signing the open letter, he told members of the Trump National Golf Club that Al Gore should be stripped of his Nobel Prize because that winter had been cold. “Gore wants us to clean up our factories and plants in order to protect us from global warming, when China and other countries couldn’t care less,” he said. “It would make us totally noncompetitive in the manufacturing world, and China, Japan and India are laughing at America’s stupidity.”

But, what does he really believe? Was there some revelation that changed his mind? I myself was a believer, as I’ve noted many times. I’ve also noted recently that Trump may be backsliding on his supposed climate skepticism. Quite frankly, I do not care if one is a believer or a Skeptic: I care what a government official plans to do about it, and if those actions will cause harm to myself and other citizens.

Man Who Took Fossil Fueled Trip To Manhattan Warns It Will Soon Be Underwater From ‘Climate Change’

By William Teach June 10, 2016 – 7:51 am

What does it take to get Mr. Obama anywhere? Let’s start with a fossil fueled (FF) helicopter flight to Andrews AFB. Then the FF flight itself, which typically includes a FF backup plane and several FF fighter jets. Then a big FF convoy of vehicles which get low MPG. Then reverse for the trip back to D.C.

(Weekly Standard) President Obama warned of a submerged Manhattan without efforts to combat climate change during a fundraiser in New York City Wednesday night.

“[T]he majority of people believe in things like science — and scientists,” an official transcript of his remarks reads. “And so when scientists tell us that the planet is getting warmer and we need to do something about it, the majority of people think that’s a good idea, let’s do something about that, because we don’t want Manhattan to be underwater.”

Good news! It’ll take a long, long time for Manhattan to be underwater. By the time it becomes a danger, the earth will have flipped to a typical Holocene cool period

You can see it bigger, and other NY sea level data, here. 0.93 feet in 100 years is just barely above average for the last 7-8,000 years, and still well under the expected sea rise during a Holocene warm period. Fortunately, we have Mr. Obama, putting out well above the average carbon pollution to tell Other People that they need to be forced to Do Something by government. While at a fancy schmansy fundraiser.

Senator Fauxcahontas “Eviscerates” Donald Trump Or Something

By William Teach June 10, 2016 – 7:03 am

Liberals are wetting their pants with a thrill running up their leg over the comments Senator Elizabeth “Fake Indian” Warren lobbed towards Donald Trump

Elizabeth Warren eviscerates Trump: ‘A loud … thin-skinned fraud’

Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren unloaded on Donald Trump on Thursday, calling the presumptive Republican presidential nominee a “loud, nasty, thin-skinned fraud” and a “racist bully” during a fiery speech in Washington.

Warren’s barbs centered on Trump’s racially charged attacks on US District Court Judge Gonzalo Curiel, who is presiding over a civil lawsuit involving Trump’s defunct real-estate school, Trump University.

One would think people who write for a living would understand that Mexican is not a race. Trump’s comments were bigoted, if you want to go there, but, most just Donald being an unthinking jerk initially, then being a thinking jerk as he continued.

“Judge Curiel is one of countless American patriots who has spent decades quietly serving his country,” said Warren, speaking at a convention of the American Constitution Society. “Donald Trump is a loud, nasty, thin-skinned fraud who has never risked anything for anyone and serves nobody but himself.”

“That is just one of the many reasons why he will never be president of the United States,” she added.

And that supposedly “eviscerates” Trump. Leftists love their headlines like eviscerate, destroys, rips, etc. Words along those lines.

“Donald, you should be ashamed of yourself,” Warren said. “Ashamed for using the megaphone of a presidential campaign for attacking a judge’s character and integrity simply because you think you have a God-given right to steal people’s money and get away with it.”

Says the woman who bought foreclosed homes and flipped them to make a quick profit on people’s misery. But, she “eviscerates” Trump!!!!!1!!!!! I’m waiting for the headline about Trump eviscerating Hillary. Instead, it was just about a “campaign tweet fight” between Hillary and Trump

Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are engaged in their first full-blown Twitter war.

Trump started it, mocking President Barack Obama’s endorsement of the presumptive Democratic nominee on Thursday.

“Obama just endorsed Crooked Hillary. He wants four more years of Obama_but nobody else does!” Trump tweeted.

Hillary replied with

And Donald?

Donald may have a bit of a mean streak, but, he’s not being investigated by the FBI for criminal violations of federal law.

Warmists Worried About ‘Climate Change’ Turning Up Heat On Koalas

By William Teach June 9, 2016 – 10:27 am

Another day, another silly computer model study which aimed to be very concerned, and came out as very concerned

Climate change likely to turn up heat on koalas

A changing climate means that by 2070 koalas may no longer call large parts of inland Australia home, researchers have found.

Using a detailed ecological model, the University of Melbourne study shows hotter temperatures and altered rainfall patterns will make it much more difficult for koalas to get the water they need – making inland populations vulnerable to heat-stress.

The researchers mapped potential koala habitats in 2070 by using information about koala behaviour, physiology, body size, and fur to predict how much energy and water koalas need to survive under the climate at a particular location. They found that the climatically suitable area dramatically reduced by 2070, particularly in Queensland. The koala’s range across Australia was limited by water requirements for keeping cool, with the timing of rainfall and heat waves being crucial in limiting the koala in the warmer parts of its range.

Got that? They were able to get their crystal balls, er, computer models to tell them exactly what they wanted: doom for koalas! Because they know exactly what the weather will be 50+ years from now. They wouldn’t be able to tell you what it will be specifically 20 days from now, but 50 years? Easy peasy!

Dr Brendan Wintle, Deputy Director of the National Environmental Science Programme’s Threatened Species Recovery Hub, and a co-author of the study, says describing where koalas and other threatened species find refuge from changing climate and other threats such as cats and foxes allows efficient focus of conservation efforts and limited conservation funding.

And this is one of the (many) things that bugs me about the Cult of Climastrology. There are real environmental issues going on, yet these cultish fools focus on ‘climate change’ rather than those issues, often placing those real issues much lower. Koala populations suffer from chlamydia and habitat loss. Habitat loss plays a huge part, which brings them into contact with cars and dogs. Feral animals. Bushfires, which can be anthropogenic, but, mostly because of idiots playing with fire. Dieback, where cutting back in forests creates separate pockets, which can die off. Feral animals brought by humans to Australia. Real issues. Not tiny climatic swings as have been going on for longer than humanity.

The NY Times Is Very Concerned That Democrats Won’t Renounce Hillary Clinton

By William Teach June 9, 2016 – 8:51 am

You remember Hillary Clinton, right? She is now the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee. The one who lied about the reason 4 Americans were killed in Benghazi, and who helped create the poor security situation for our people in Benghazi. She helped create an Islamist state in Libya. She blew off the Arab Spring, and, by her own words, helped create the Iran deal which simply kicks the can for Iran’s nuclear weapons ambitions down the road 8-10 years. She exposed America’s national security secrets to foreign governments, and anyone with basic hacking skills, by using an illegal and unallowed server. She used her position as Secretary of State to enrich her foundation and hook up cronies.

But, no, the NY Times is not concerned about her

Why Republicans Won’t Renounce Trump

When Donald Trump attacked a federal judge whose parents were born in Mexico, Hispanic Americans were outraged. Other minority groups saw a pattern of bigotry. Democrats had a hard time concealing their glee. Republican leaders pretended they disapproved.

Well, to be fair, they did disapprove in a way — not because Trump believes the things he says, but because he says them so directly.

Far too many Republicans share this kind of racism and have for a long time. Trump has just dispensed with dog whistles and revels in his bigotry instead. But this is the party the Republicans have been deliberately and assiduously building for many decades, the party of division and intolerance. George H.W. Bush’s racist tactics in 1988 against Michael Dukakis — the Willie Horton ad in particular — seem almost genteel by comparison.

And boom, we have a Willie Horton mention! Every presidential election cycle seems to require some Leftist boob to bring it up, forgetting that it was Al Gore who brought it up first. Oh, and that Willie Horton was a loathsome criminal who raped, tortured, and murdered a man and a woman after he was let out under Dukakis’ weekend furlough program. He was in jail initially (along with 2 others) for robbing 17 year old Joseph Fournier, stabbing him 19 times, stuffing his body in a trash can, and letting him bleed to death.

Once Horton was recaptured in Maryland after raping and killing and stuff, post weekend furlough which he never returned from, the Maryland judge refused to return him to Massachusetts, worried that Dukakis would release him again.

Today’s Republicans have stymied every effort at reforming immigration, at achieving true equality for women, at ending the scourge of racist drug laws and criminal sentencing rules. The Republican Party has generated a wave of laws designed to make it harder for black Americans and other minorities to vote. It’s not that Republicans don’t want to deport millions of Mexicans and ban Muslims from our shores. They just don’t like to talk about it in the open.

If they’re illegal, deport them. If they can’t prove who they are, they can’t vote. If they’re doing hard drugs, prosecute them (I don’t think possession of marijuana should be worse than a parking ticket, at most). Funny part here, Blacks do much, much worse in Democratic Party run cities, shooting and killing each other wantonly. It’s almost like Democrats like Blacks killing each other.

So when Donald Trump started to attack Mexicans, Muslims and anyone else who popped into his head, Republican leaders may have thought it was bad tactics. But all that talk this year about the “Republican establishment” being aghast at Trump for his outlandish ideas was nonsense.

Muslims are so often bringing their radical Islamist ideas to our shores. They stand against everything that Democrats are for. Why do Democrats tolerate them?

Donald Trump is a boob. Hillary Clinton is a danger to America’s national security and economic health.
