It Was A Funny Old World But It Wasn't All Hopscotch And Conkers

I brought you this report last week on the impending auction of Nazi board games.
Failure To Bomb The Tommies Will Result In Detention After School. Sieg Heil


Well it would appear the Brits had there own little propaganda moral boosting industry as well.


Nazi-era board games are being auctioned this week, one with points given for bombing UK cities. But what were British children playing during WWII? It wasn't all hopscotch and conkers, the Brits had their own propaganda games.

Model Spitfires and Hurricanes were commonplace in the toy boxes of the 1940s. The war touched every aspect of life and had a profound effect on childhood.

Prime Minister Winston Churchill demanded that all the country's energies were dedicated to the war effort. Board games, it seems, were no exception.........


And not to be left out the Yankee Doodles geared up for the war effort.

Even before the US had entered the war, DC Comics were firmly opposed to Hitler's Nazi regime. Marvel Comics Captain America was also depicted to beat up Hitler and Superman was so anti-Nazi that German propaganda minister Goebbels felt moved to attack the Man of Steel as a Jew..more

Sometimes I Feel Like Bitch Slapping Someone With Half A Common

I don't normally bother my arse over wannabe presidential candidates, I actually find the whole debate/interview thing totally lacking in class and devoid of any kind of dignity.

Pam Spaulding writes on Americablog about an interview between Ron Paul and John Lofton. Much talk about gays and sin and the whole nine yards, but it was the last line that Pam mentions that caught my eye.



Lofton goes on to say that "God will not bless an army or a military that is full of unrepentent, practicing homosexuals, and adulterers and fornicators."







Just how demented, delusional and fucking warped does a person have to be to spew forth such fucking insane Christo psychobabble as that?

Fucking stroll on, only in America!

God's Harvard: God's Next Army. A Film

.



This fifty minute film produced by UK Channel 4 gives an insight to the political agenda of Patrick Henry College as they take in a fresh bunch of evangelical, eighty percent home schooled students.

Brought up blinkered and in ignorance as only the home schooled are Patrick Henry sets about moulding these young Jesus freaks into political activists for God and the Republican Party.
Pretty scary stuff all in all. I personally have to fight down the nausea when I witness all these virgins for Jesus.



This little quote by the principal Michael Farris seems to sum the whole thing up.
"We don't need the world's knowledge and information to guide us."

Sometimes My Fellow Leftists Really Piss Me Off

.



I have resisted the urge to post what is to follow for more than a good while. My main reluctance was that it was a correspondence via private mail on Richard Dawkins.net. It was the "Private" in the "PM" that brought about this reluctance, but having just posted the previous article and unearthing the graphic that I use here, well, it has to be.

The graphic and the the text that follows both typifies and personifies all that is wrong with being left for leftist sake.

Given how passionately I feel about the subject, original article here, all I can say is it's quite remarkable how I managed to keep some degree of civility in the intercourse.
As you read away I think, or at least I hope that you might agree with me.










This is the communication I had with the sender on Richard Dawkins.net


From Sender:

Hi, Himself,
I went to your blog, and like a lot of it, but must say, your spiel "The Cruelest Race" is biased.
Firstly, Iranians are not a 'race' they are a nationality.

Secondly, people throughout the whole of the Middle East, including Iran, had long been known for their hospitality to strangers and their care of the poor.

When you compare specifics between one country and another also bear in mind that in as small a timeframe as a few hundred years (i.e virtually simultaneously) people around the globe are guilty of pretty much the same sorts of things. Remember that just recently children were hanged in England for stealing.

Also take care where you get your news from. There is more to a BBC documentary than meets the eye. There are political agendas to consider.
Regards,

From myself in reply:

Of course it's fucking biased.

Can you read.

The Cruelest Race Of People On The Face Of The Earth
That is how a woman of my acquaintance described the Iranians.

The rest of your comment; don't even THINK to start lecturing me.

They hung the girl. she is dead.

Yes, I can. The question is now whether you can: "The Cruelest Race Of People On The Face Of The Earth
....In most everything I have researched I have yet to find much, if anything, to refute her claim". But thanks for admitting that your article is biased...VERY biased...in fact bordering on, or advocating xenophobia.

Himself wrote:The rest of your comment; don't even THINK to start lecturing me.

Everyone 'lectures' everyone else all the time. You did it on your blog and in the RDF forum, it doesn't worry either of us.

Yes, they hung the girl. And keeping your comments restricted to womens liberation and miscarriages of justice, the ethics of hanging, and the pros & cons of Islam would have been admirable. But to gratuitously throw in the 'race' issue remarks was ill conceived.

But I did like the blog, in general.

From myself in reply:

*******, good morning. Let me make but a couple of observations from your comments. You offer me this.

Secondly, people throughout the whole of the Middle East, including Iran, had long been known for their hospitality to strangers and their care of the poor.


Given the gravity of what I write about all I can say is, never in all my days would I ever expected someone to make such a statement that doesn't even reach childish let alone naive, but is truly infantile.

I would be offered tea and biscuits in the desert but my hosts must hurry off after lunch to participate in the stoning of a nine year old girl.

What on earth has being hospitable got to do with anything when discussing the subject matter?

You accuse me of bordering on xenophobia, I don't border on it, I surpass it to the realm of sheer unadulterated hatred, as I state categorically in the article.
Justifiably so given the enormity of the cruelty practised by these animals in the name of their religion of peace.

Do you have a problem with this, not PC, how PC is hanging children for "crimes against chastity"?

Or do I have it wrong, and somewhere along the way I misunderstand the hangings and stonings and the severing of limbs and all the rest of their barbaric dark ages practices? or am I not being PC by mentioning it.

Heaven forbid that I should be guilty of such thing.

Oh for Christ's sake, wake up and smell the coffee.

Or Mammas and Pappas and a Baby Fuckup Named George


An excellent little, well not so little really, shall I say an essay of middling length on the family and times of George W Bush. A worthy read.

My sense, honestly, is that Poppy Bush is many things - with most of them on the political and fatherly fronts more than a little distasteful - but that he is nevertheless also a believer in America and a patriot. If so, ouch. That’s gotta hurt. Because that means he cares about the country, he believes in its tropes, and he must know at some level, a level hard to suppress sufficiently deep enough, that he is the guy who gave the world the guy who is wrecking it all.

In fact, we know he knows, because it was revealed in a recent New York Times article that people walk up to him all the time and say how much they appreciate and like him, but, um, er, uh, like what the fuck happened with your kid, man? more

Robert Fisk, Ravers And Looking For 9/11 Truth

I think Fisk speaks for a number of people when he asks some quite reasonable questions in this article, he certainly speaks for me and others who don't want to embrace a conspiracy theory but would like some logical answers to a variety of troubling questions.


Each time I lecture abroad on the Middle East, there is always someone in the audience – just one – whom I call the "raver". But the "raver" is real. He has turned up in corporeal form in Stockholm and in Oxford, in Sao Paulo and in Yerevan, in Cairo, in Los Angeles and, in female form, in Barcelona. No matter the country, there will always be a "raver"...........


But – here we go. I am increasingly troubled at the inconsistencies in the official narrative of 9/11. It's not just the obvious non sequiturs: where are the aircraft parts (engines, etc) from the attack on the Pentagon? Why have the officials involved in the United 93 flight (which crashed in Pennsylvania) been muzzled? Why did flight 93's debris spread over miles when it was supposed to have crashed in one piece in a field?


Again, I'm not talking about the crazed "research" of David Icke's Alice in Wonderland and the World Trade Center Disaster – which should send any sane man back to reading the telephone directory.

What A Load Of Balls: Blasphemy Is a Victimless "Crime"

Seems the Afghans are a bit pissed.

'Blasphemous' balls anger Afghans

A demonstration has been held in south- east Afghanistan accusing US troops of insulting Islam after they distributed footballs bearing the name of Allah.

The balls showed the Saudi Arabian flag which features the Koranic declaration of faith.

The US military said the idea had been to give something for Afghan children to enjoy and they did not realise it would cause offence.

The footballs were dropped from a helicopter in Khost province.

Some displayed flags from countries all over the world, including Saudi Arabia, which features the shahada, one of the five pillars of Islam - the declaration of faith. more


And then there is this.

Malaysia has shut down a newspaper for a month after it published a picture of Jesus holding a cigarette and what appears to be a can of beer.

Prime Minister Abdullah Badawi himself stepped in to admonish the editors of Makkal Osai, a Tamil-language paper.

The country's publishing laws allow politicians to close any publication without judicial approval.



Christians who complained about the picture say they are bemused as they had accepted the paper's apology. more


This is not the graphic in question.

Going To Blow The Whistle? Hold Your Breath

Whistleblowers on Fraud Facing Penalties


One after another, the men and women who have stepped forward to report corruption in the massive effort to rebuild Iraq have been vilified, fired and demoted.

Or worse.

For daring to report illegal arms sales, Navy veteran Donald Vance says he was imprisoned by the American military in a security compound outside Baghdad and subjected to harsh interrogation methods.

There were times, huddled on the floor in solitary confinement with that head-banging music blaring dawn to dusk and interrogators yelling the same questions over and over, that Vance began to wish he had just kept his mouth shut.



He had thought he was doing a good and noble thing when he started telling the FBI about the guns and the land mines and the rocket-launchers - all of them being sold for cash, no receipts necessary, he said. He told a federal agent the buyers were Iraqi insurgents, American soldiers,
State Department workers, and Iraqi embassy and ministry employees. more

Justice A Long Time Coming: Klansman Off To The Big House

A former Ku Klux Klansman has been jailed for life over the abduction and killing of two black teenagers in the US state of Mississippi.


James Ford Seale, 72, was given three life terms on charges of kidnapping and conspiracy over the deaths of Charles Eddie Moore and Henry Hezekiah Dee. BBC


Lawdy Lawdy! the stuff a man finds when searching for a graphic, below is just a small part of a mind blowing motherfucker of a read. How red in the neck can stuff get?
This is a contemporary article written by the Reverend Colonel Joe Johnson.



Wizards of the KKK and other prominent Clansmen

The Klan is quite simply an irresistible, unstoppable, Clandestine Resistance Movement against Federal tyranny and in support of a return to Constitutional government, the Christian Faith and true Freedom and Liberty in this our White Christian Native Homeland. The KKK wants North America back, and The Klans intend to take it back one way or another, sooner or later, no matter how long it takes, whatever it takes or costs, and that mission and goal will be accomplished with the sure and steadfast help of Almighty God whose Name is YAHWEH. The Ku Klux Klans uphold and defend the True Christian Faith and.......


Then with the turbulent 1950's and the horrible and detestable advent of the Civil Rights Movement, some Klan groups became righteously indignant and took action against the communists, colored people, negroid loving white trash, and Jew agitators, which invaded our Southern Homeland pressing forward their diabolical Communist agenda. There are some well meaning, weak minded and ungodly persons who argue that elements of the KKK became murderously savage at this time in the history of the Klan.



This was a time of intense struggle, and serious damage was done to our Nation, our Race and our whole way of life. The Klan was out front in Resistance to this
Communist take over of our Nation; it is really a tremendous loss and defeat of our people that there was not near enough violence against our adversaries and foes during this time in history. If there had been enough violence committed in Resistance to the Federal interference in our lives, perhaps America would not be in the filthy rotten mess it is in right now. Our White Aryan Race should have taken up ARMS and went to war against the US Federal Government, the Jews, and the Negroids back in the 1950's....... The rest

UK Gun and Knife Crime Stats




I run the risk of sounding smug here, but we natives think things are getting quite bad. By comparison I suppose the total number of homicides could be less than Bumfuck Georgia, statistics to die for you might say.

According to provisional Home Office figures, there were 58 firearms-related homicides in 2006-07 compared with 49 in the previous year. That is an increase of 18% in just one year. If we include airguns, the number of homicides in 2006-07 rises to 61. There were 413 firearms incidents that resulted in serious injury - more than one a day. more

What The F*ck Is The Good Pastor Ted Up To?

I can't get twisted that the other protagonist in this story,Paul Huberty, is on the sex offenders list, after all half the guys in America that have ever taken a piss al fresco are probably on it, but "Tooting Ted" Haggard seems to be sailing a bit close to the wind. (again)
OK is was a bit more than taking a leak, but it was consensual and she was seventeen for Christ's sake.

Just a sideline, the link to the value of his house carries quite a bit of information (worthy of reading) including that his kids are to start a new school, whereas they are probably Jesusy little bleeders and I normally wouldn't bother me arse over them, I have to admit to feeling more than a little sorry for the poor fuckers.
I can't see myself being around in twenty years but it would be interesting to see just how fucked up they end up being. The whole family for that matter.


Ted Haggard, as we learned today on Colorado Confidential, wants you to pay for his and his wife’s living expenses while they go to college—they’re destitute, you see. (Colorado Confidential reports that the Haggards currently own a house in Colorado Springs valued at close to a three quarters of a million dollars.) In an open letter sent to Haggard’s gullible “supporters,” the disgraced preacher gives two addresses where money can be sent.



Checks can be sent to Haggard’s mailing address in Phoenix or, if a supporter needs a tax deduction, checks can be sent to Families With a Mission, a charity based in Colorado Springs. more

Science News: Enormous Cosmic Void Discovered

Astronomers have found an enormous void in space that measures nearly a billion light-years across.

It is empty of both normal matter - such as galaxies and stars - and the mysterious "dark matter" that cannot be seen directly with telescopes.

The "hole" is located in the direction of the Eridanus constellation and has been identified in data from a survey of the sky made at radio wavelengths. BBC

Vick Signs Plea Agreement

Falcons quarterback Michael Vick has signed a plea agreement in which he admits to sponsoring a dogfighting operation and promoting a business enterprise involving gambling.

The summary of facts accompanying the plea agreement obtained by the Journal-Constitution says Vick was aware four dogs were killed in 2002 and six to eight dogs were killed this past April as a result of the "collective efforts" of Vick and two of his co-defendants. more

No Sex Toys Allowed You're In Dixie Now

You are by now probably aware of my feelings regarding the repressed puritans of America, so I am not going to reiterate, you can read about the subject here or here, or you can go to Babeland's Blog and have far more interesting experience as you read away

Yesterday the Eleventh Circuit court held that Alabama’s ban on sex toys is constitutional. On Valentine’s Day of all days! The ruling does so on the grounds “that Alabama has an interest in preserving “public morality” against the sale of such devices.” This ban does not prohibit owning sex toys or using them, just (just!) buying them anywhere in the state of Alabama........

While you are over at Babeland's Blog not looking in the left hand sidebar at what she has to offer the discerning perv, and not placing your order for one or more of her Premium Vibes or any number of other interesting little tricks, or not placing an order in the waterproof section for little Ducky that would bring a whole new dimension to bathnight, while you're not doing any of those things, don't read the (unfortunately few) comments on the page. A snippet below.

From Texas:
An adult bookstore employee in El Paso, Texas, sued the state after his arrest for showing two undercover officers a device shaped like a penis and telling the female officer the device would arouse and gratify her.

The employee, Ignacio Sergio Acosta, says a Texas law outlawing the manufacture, marketing or dissemination of an “obscene device” including those shaped like sex organs.........
