Professor from the University of Pennsylvania claims people who support a ban on late term abortions are racists
Yesterday the House of Representatives voted to ban late term abortions and needless to say this has become a very controversial vote even though this is going to go nowhere in the Senate.
University of Pennsylvania Professor Salamisha had some strong words to say about the Republicans who voted for this ban. Here is what she had to say:
She expressed the possibility that Republicans support abortion bans so that white women will keep having babies, thereby “reproducing whiteness, white supremacy, white privilege.”
According to this educator Republicans who support this measure do so not because they are morally opposed to abortion but rather because they want to see black babies killed so that more white babies will be born than black babies.
Obamacare: Local governments cutting worker hours to avoid the Affordable Healthcare Act
As I have written several times in the past on America’s Watchtower there is a trend emerging as Obamacare goes into effect: In addition to downsizing their companies many employers are also cutting employee hours in order to avoid the healthcare law.
Those whom support Obamacare defend the law by blaming greedy corporations and capitalists for attempting to skirt the law by intentionally harming their workers in order to make a political point. In doing so these people willfully ignore the fact that these companies legitimately have to turn a profit in order to stay in business (and keep employing others) and Obamacare makes it increasingly more difficult to do so.
One has to wonder how these defenders of Obamacare feel about this news that local governments are using the same tactic in order to avoid the additional Obamacare costs.
Yet while private companies are getting all this unwelcome and hostile attention, local governments across the country have been quietly doing exactly the same thing — cutting part-time hours specifically so they can skirt ObamaCare’s costly employer mandate
Barack Obama claims parochial schools encourage division
While giving a speech in Ireland yesterday Barack Obama spoke out against parochial schools, stating the following:
If towns remain divided—if Catholics have their schools and buildings and Protestants have theirs, if we can’t see ourselves in one another and fear or resentment are allowed to harden—that too encourages division and discourages cooperation.
It is interesting to note here that he only mentioned Catholic and Protestant schools and didn’t bother to mention Madrassas, such as the one he may or may not have attended as a teenager, but that really isn’t surprising.
When in the course of human events…..
…..it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
So says the Declaration of Independence, and that time has come. Make no mistake about it: I am not calling for the abolition of the Federal Government, I am not calling for Revolution, and I am not calling for the violent overthrow of our leaders. The political bands I am referring to here are the Republicans and the Democrats because this has all happened under the all too watchful eye of both parties. Our founders put in place a system to correct this problem and it is time for the American people to use it.
All of the 2012 post election analysis has centered around the Republicans and their inability to win over minority voters. We have been told that the Republicans appear to be too hostile towards minorities because of their opposition to amnesty.
In response to this criticism the Republican party has decided to move toward the left yet again and now many of them are supporting the immigration reform bill which is secretly being crafted by Barack Obama and not by the “Gang of Eight” as we had been led to believe.
Apparently the Republicans have not learned their lesson after nominating faux Republicans John McCain and Mitt Romney in the last two presidential elections and they are on the verge of making the same mistake again.
Lindsey Graham went so far as to say that if the Republicans blocked the immigration reform bill they would be locked in a “demographic death spiral” but is that really the case?
Barack Obama is crafting the “Gang of Eight” immigration bill, Rubio aide claims there are too many worthless American workers
While we have been told that the immigration reform bill being crafted by the “Gang of Eight” is a bipartisan effort we are now learning it is anything but. Barack Obama is crafting the immigration bill with the help of four Republican dupes who should know better by this point in time. Nothing is being inserted into this bill which Barack Obama does not approve of:
“‘No decisions are being made without talking to us about it,’ the official said of the Gang of Eight negotiations … ‘This does not fly if we’re not O.K. with it,’” a senior Obama official told author Ryan Lizza for the pending article.
The article linked to above also goes on to claim that Barack Obama is purposely keeping a low profile on this so that the rest of the GOP will not realize how much influence he has had in crafting this legislation.
Meanwhile Republicans such as Lindsey Graham and Marco Rubio are playing right into the president’s hand. Lindsey Graham claimed that if the Republicans block immigration reform they will be “in a demographic death spiral” and will lose the presidency in 2016, proving once and for all something that I have been saying for awhile now: The Republicans are only interested in doing what they think is best for the party and not what is best for the country.
Are we headed towards WWIII?
Earlier this week the Obama regime announced that Syria had passed Barack Obama’s red line when it confirmed that Syrian President Bashar al-Assad used chemical weapons against the al-Qaeda supported rebels who are seeking to overthrow him.
Because Syria reportedly crossed this red line the Obama regime announced that the United States of America will begin actively supporting the rebels with weapons to aid them in the fight against al-Assad. It is now public knowledge that Barack Obama is ready to supply the rebels with weapons, but in reality the regime may have already been smuggling weapons into Syria which is why the attack on the consulate in Benghazi took place in the first place, but that is a story for another day.
Now that the Obama regime is publicly–instead of covertly–supplying arms to the rebels we have to look at the potential consequences of this action.

It is now being reported that the Obama regime has concluded beyond a shadow of a doubt that Syrian President Bashar Assad used chemical weapons against the rebels seeking to overthrow him (where have we heard this before, Iraq maybe) crossing Barack Obama’s red line. In response to this news Barack Obama has pledged more support for the rebels:
The United States has conclusive evidence that Syrian President Bashar Assad’s regime has used chemical weapons against opposition forces seeking to overthrow the government, crossing what President Barack Obama has called a “red line” that would trigger greater American involvement in the crisis, the White House said Thursday.
In response, two U.S. officials said Obama planned to send weapons and ammunition to bolster the rebel forces, though the specific instance and timeline for delivery were unclear
At this point we should remember that the Syrian rebels have previously voiced support for al-Qaeda: Read more…
