Laura Ingraham’s Vitriol Towards Meghan McCain Unnecessary

I consider myself an Independent with a Democratic leaning, as such, the readers of this article  are entittled to know who and what I represent as the writer of this Dirty Republican Laundry that has permeated in recent news cycles.

At issue for those who may yet be unaware of what the “War of Words” is about is Meghan McCain being the young woman she is has been freely expressing her views and opinions as to the state of the Republican Party on talk shows and throughout the national media.  Meghan McCain is quoted as saying the Republican Party is not doing enough to appeal to younger voters among other things. 

The fact of the matter is that Meghan talked factually about relevant matters within the Republican Party and has a rather unique perspective  on what she thinks the Republican Party could do better. 

Meghan McCain did not deserve to be rewarded with personal attacks from the old heads within the party, From the likes of Laura Ingraham the publicity hound, and M. Malkkin, both rising up like two ancient dinosaurs spewing out their fiery blast of personal attacks rather than addressing the merits of the issues Meghan McCain raised.

 Why the attack?  Could it be that she is Fresh, Young, and Honest.   Plus She appears human where as I cannot say that about her critics based on the level of attacks.

Ms.McCain appears to be a take charge kind of women.  The Old Guard should welcome Meghan McCain’s fresh perspective and ideas.  They should admirer her for even caring.  Obviously there are those who seem to prefer that she did not and just sit on the sidelines and keep her views private.  

That is unlikely to happen so I suspect the Old Guard will just have to get use to the new kid on the block who says to her critics: “You can Hoof and you can Puff, but I’m here to Stay”. 

Meghan McCain comes from a family where public service has been a tradition and I think she will be in the public limelight long after Ingraham, Malkkin, and offensive conservatives like Ann Coulter and Boss Limbaugh are no longer Germaine or relevant.   If, they are today.

I reiterate, voicing her opinion on what she thought the Republican Party must learn (i.e.  how to reach out to younger voters) to become a party of choice again of the American Electorate 

Meghan McCain was Thrashed and Hashed by the “Talking Heads” of conservative radio mainly of the female persuasion which is rather fascinating on its on.   This is why it has been said:  ”One Should not do Their Dirty Laundry in Public”  because everyone will be talking about it.  Including Blogger Keeping It Real.

Rush Limbaugh’s Operation Chaos Backfires on the Republican Party, Thanks Rush!

RNC Chairman Michael Steel was a guess on CNN’S, D.L Hughley News hour Saturday 2-28-09.  Mr. Steel described Rush Limbaugh as an entertainer who who says ugly things.   The RNC Chairman said  he alone was the head of the Republican Party. 

That sounds strange to me considering Mr. Steel is an African-American heading a party perceived as a party of  rich white men who care only for other rich white men.  That however is fodder for a future article.  Now Mr. Steel is being urged to “Get to Work”. and shut his trap.

Obviously, Mr. Limbaugh was not happy with Mr. Steel’s commentary.  The following Monday March 2, 2009.   Mr. Limbaugh came out firing with both barrels.  Mr Limbaugh referred to Mr. Steel as an aspiring but unsuccessful media “Talking Head”.   Which is Rush Limbaugh’s domain. 

Limbaugh advised Mr. Steel to get to work at the RNC to come up with strategies to counter Democrats from voting in open Republican Primaries and chooing Republican Candidates.  Limbaugh said if he does not, Democrats will be choosing Republican Candidates.   

Did Rush reveal his fear in that statement?  Mr steel he said should concentrate on preventing Democrats from doing the exact same thing that Rush Limbaugh ordered his minions to do to Candidate Barack Obama during the primaries.  During Rush’s Operation Chaos, Limbaugh urged his republican and conservative listeners to vote for Hillary Clinton in the open democratic primaries to defeat Barack Obama.  Now Mr. Limbaugh has reveal his greatest fear.  That Karma, or his chickens will come home to roost on his very own lofty perch.

Democrats this is our opportunity.   Rush Limbaugh gave us a gift through his tongue lashing of Mr. Steel.  The gift is that we now have the power to vote in open Republican Primaries and we should give Rush Limbaugh and company a healthy dose of their own medicine. 

Fellow Democrats if we work together like we did to elect President Obama.  We can also choose the kinds of Republicans Candidates that will have a chance to get into office by our own chaos. i.e. vote in Open Republican Primaries.  Whats good for the goose is good for the gander. Therefore, Democrats, I am giving you the same advice Rush Limbaugh gave to Michael Steel, and that is to get to work.

Oprah Discovers Freedom Is Not Free

News reports of late indicate Oprah’s market shares show signs of slippage.  

Some observers attributed the decline to Oprah’s announcement on The Larry King Show in May of 2007 that she was throwing her  support behind her long time friend, Senator Barrack Obama.  Here are some facts and figures: 

January 2007,  74 percent of Americans reported favorable impressions of Oprah in a Gallop/USA Today poll. 

August 2007 CBS News Poll showed only 61 percent of Americans were favorably disposed by her. 

October 2007 Gallop/USA Today Poll, Showed a higher 66 percent favorably, but still reflected a drop.

Some  segments of Oprah’s viewers have expressed their displeasure over Oprah’s endorsement of Barack Obama.  Another man-v-the first woman.

In Oprah’s case, And from my perspective alone,  I do not believe Race is trumping Gender if you happen to view the situation in such terms.  Nor do I agree that Oprah can only entertain Us,  via Harpo productions, the Big Give or Satellite Radio and  ”O” Magazine but otherwise she should stay silent on political matters.   Stay in the shadows?  Keep her politics private? Or go with the women candidate?  So that she remains popular among them to keep the peace?  

There are numerous articles on the web and in other quarters, that suggest Oprah has become anti-christian, and now embrace some ”New Aged” religious beliefs.   I guess her critics would be happier if she were still a member of Trinity?   Trinity being the Obama’s former church in Chicago where the famous words of Rev. Wright will live on in infamy.  “Naw,Naw,Naw, I will leave it there.

The bottom line here is: ”Oprah is not just a Black Women,”  like she told a crowd in South Carolina, as she campaigned for Barrack Obama, She said:  “I am not Just a Black Woman,  I am a  Free Black Woman.”   Those words carried power and truth.

Telling all women they are also just as free to choose the candidate of their choice.

In our great land, of America.  We are endowed, with certain inalienable rights, which allows freedom of choice in determining our individual choices.

Therefore, I am curious to know who thought they could pressure Oprah to support Hillary Clinton if it was  not Oprah’s own decision?  I know I ask more questions than I may answer but I believe the questions are worth asking. 

Simply because Hillary Clinton happens to be the first viable woman candidate some individuals are pushing back from Oprah and company. Simply because she endorsed for the first time and her endorsement was not for the first lady.

If Maya Angelou being a black women, can support Hillary, not because Maya Angelou is a black woman, but because she is a free black woman.  A free black woman who freely supported  the woman candidate Hillary Clinton.  Who happens to be white. 

Despite the fact that many blacks would have assumed the opposite would be true.  Maya Angelou to have supported Obama and Oprah would have supported  Hillary Clinton satisfying groups like NOW and other women splinter groups.

Therefore, the backlash in terms of Oprah’s Neilsen Ratings with her American audience is symbolic of the fact that Freedom is not free.  We all must pay for all we do and say.  Another writer said it like this: “You may not get all you pay for in This World, but you Must Certainly pay for all you get.”  By  Frederick Douglas.

Make Jamiel’s Law, Law.

A new law being proposed for the city of Los Angeles,  Jamiel’s Law, is being proposed in response to another senseless slaying of a young kid named Jamiel Shaw.   A  High School Student shot and killed on the streets of Los Angeles. He was apparently steps away from his home at about dusk, when the bullets rang out, and claimed the life of this young man. 

Jamiel Shaw’s Mother was in Iraq fighting for the USA while her son died at the hands of Sanctuary City Policies that prohibit Law Enforcement from checking for citizenship

Sanctuary Cities across this Nation are faced with the endless  criminal alien violence.  What is more disturbing is the reality that even when Undocumented Aliens are Rounded Up and Deported, with Our Open Border such as it is.  Those same Deportees can, in some cases, reenter the USA’S Open Border  and be back on the block within a week.  So how can you fix that problem?  Until that Gaping Hole is filled.   Everything else is simply an exercise in futility

In the words of Martin Luther King Jr:   ”There comes a time when the cup of endurance runs over, and men are no longer willing to be plunged into an abyss of injustice, where they experience the blackness of corroding despair.” 

Let me be clear, The majority of illegal immigrants are honorable men and women.  We are not talking about the illegal population who are not involved in lawlessness. 

Jamiels Law would deny “sanctuary city”     protection to gang members.
Jamiels Law would require city officials to enforce immigration laws
against gang members, without eliminating “Sanctuary City” protection
for any other group of people.

It’s become clear that if the residents of Los Angeles don’t struggle to address the issue of criminal illegal aliens, nobody else will.  Not the politicians, not the Corporations, or City, State and/or Federal Governments. 

Sgt. Anita Shaw returned from Iraq to bury her son and will be off once again to stand up for America and fulfill her commitment to her country.  She said on CNN today that she was leaving for Kuwait.  I think she represents the the Spirit of America.  In the face of great personal lost, She goes off to fulfill her obligation and commitment to America.

The time has now come for America to make a commitment to the citizens not just of Iraq and Afghanistan but  Los Angles, San Diego, Houston, Dallas, Phoenix, NYC, Detroit, New Jersey, North and South Carolina and throughout America.

Especially if Americans are leaving these cities to save their remaining children who have yet to be murdered by illegal alien criminal gangs roaming the streets of America.

The first thing to do is to eliminate Sanctuary Cities and anyone standing in the way.  If they are in office, We have to get them out.  Replace them!

A city Councilman Reyes of L.A. Said that to enforce immigration laws in L.A. would have to much of an economic impact.  Tell that to Sgt. Anita Shaw.  The economic consequence that Mr Reyes and the city officials of L.A. should be concerned with are personal lawsuits as the city was negligent in their responsibility to provide for the public safety. 

When the City, State and Federal Governments fail to protect  all citizens from foreign invaders, they should be held financially liable for their dereliction of duty through their advocacy of Sanctuary city policies.

In the mean time we all should work to make Jamiels Law, law.  Under Jamiels Law, When a gang member is pull over or comes into contact with law enforcement and its determined they are undocumented, under Jamiel’s Law they would be fast tracked back to their place of origin.  The people have to rise up and do for themselves what are Cities, States and Federal Governments  appear unwilling or unable to do for us.

We are literally having to fight for the lives of our children who are yet alive, to keep them alive and not have them mistaken by a gang as one of them.  We must work to pass Jamiel’s Law.  We have enough homegrown violent criminals in America, We don’t need those who come here illegally and expand the criminal elements.

Imitation, The Purest Form Of Flattery

I have noticed a few articles I have written in the past have been umm…what’s the word lifted? by other bloggers.  I see my articles on the web under different by lines.  At first it disturbed me because I feel the lazy bums who claim credit for my “Interesting Articles” Should write their own original articles as I and most other blogger do.   

I decided to view the situation as if I was being complimented from those who claim my writings as their own.  As is often said:  “Imitation is the Purest Form of Flattery“ 

To my admirers who usurp my articles and who re-post them as their own. Thank you for helping me to spread my message to your audiences too.

I am getting my message out which is my goal.  I thank  those individuals who use  my articles.  Although I would never give anyone permission to use my work without giving me my dues but as long as they do not add or remove any parts of it  then I am just achieving my goal of  sharing the maarti message, even if  they  take all the credit for it!
