The pipe of the racism piper is playing and the lemmings hear the call. One after another politicians run to the front of the political correctness cliff and jump off blathering about how the Confederate flag has to come down and even how the next symbol of oppression must also find the dustbin of history:
Senate Majority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has joined calls to remove a statue of Kentucky-native Jefferson Davis from the state capitol building.
The statue of Jefferson Davis has been in the rotunda of the Kentucky Capitol building since 1936, but it has come under fire by McConnell, GOP Gubernatorial candidate Matt Bevin, and “top Republicans in Kentucky’s House and Senate.”
According to WAVE 3, McConnell gave a measured response to questions about removing the statue, saying, “Maybe a better place for that would be the Kentucky History Museum, which is also in the state Capitol.”
Frankly, I think the Confederate flag flying in the South probably should have been taken down years ago but thanks to democrats like Fritz Hollings up it went.
Retailers lined up and jumped off the cliff as well. Amazon stated it will no longer sell the Confederate flag, but it will continue to sell Communist merchandise.
Amazon sells a huge variety of shirts, posters, you-name-it featuring the hammer and sickle, Joseph Stalin’s mustache, all things Che Guevara, Vladimir Lenin and other colorful revolutionaries who fought to make the world a better place, man. Guevara’s book Guerilla Warfare is on sale in four different formats. In one of the worst genocides in modern times, Stalin forcibly starved Ukrainian peasants in what’s known as the Holodomor, a “terror-famine” that left anywhere from 2.4 million to 7.5 million Ukrainian peasants dead in 1933.
Nazi merchandise? Sure.
Walmart has pulled the Confederate flag but it will be happy to sell you a poster of Che Guevara.
“We never want to offend anyone with the products that we offer. We have taken steps to remove all items promoting the confederate flag from our assortment — whether in our stores or on our web site,” said Walmart spokesman Brian Nick. “We have a process in place to help lead us to the right decisions when it comes to the merchandise we sell. Still, at times, items make their way into our assortment improperly — this is one of those instances.”
“We never want to offend anyone with the products that we offer.”
Well, a lot us find Communists and Nazism offensive. A lot of us find the aggrandizement of philosophies that has killed millions after millions of people offensive.
“We never want to offend anyone with the products that we offer.”
Hmm. Can’t help but wonder- will that eventually include the American flag?
Increasingly, the American flag- the flag of the United States of America- is becoming more and more offensive to the left.
Hispanics find the American flag offensive
Muslims find the flag offensive.
Illegals? I guess they don’t mind as long as the priorities are in order:
Flag stomping has become a liberal past time
Rappers find the flag offensive.
[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mQ4tPgkoJg[/youtube]
Activists find the flag offensive.
[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ajl-5rwliK4[/youtube]
Oh, and kill whitey while we’re at it.
Liberal educators find the flag offensive.
Wearing the American flag is offensive.
And the Obama mentor in whose living room the political career of Barack Obama was spawned?
As soon as there are enough votes to be had and voters to be pandered to, democrats will call for the removal of the US flag and replace it with something closer to their hearts.
What comes after that? Burning the books about the Confederacy?
DrJohn has been a health care professional for more than 30 years. In addition to clinical practice he has done extensive research and has published widely with over 70 original articles and abstracts in the peer-reviewed literature. DrJohn is well known in his field and has lectured on every continent except for Antarctica. He has been married to the same wonderful lady for over 30 years and has three kids- two sons, both of whom are attorneys and one daughter on her way into the field of education.
DrJohn was brought up with the concept that one can do well if one is prepared to work hard but nothing in life is guaranteed.
Except for liberals being foolish.
@rich wheeler: Your assless chaps must have you in a bind. Maybe it’s all that rainbow flag waving that’s rubbing you raw. I certainly was wrong about the politicians in SC, but then I forgot momentarily that they are politicians. All that’s important to them is votes. Principle’s mean nothing to any of them. Get a bigger set of chaps, you’ll loosen up a little.
The Dimocrat Socialist Liberals sure are getting wound up about Trump. They don’t like people that tell the truth. They like to be lied to. Old HRC should be just about right for them.
Can someone answer this Jim Webb is 69 and was awarded The Navy Cross for valor in combat in V.N.–wounded and still carries shrapnel in his body.
Donald Trump is 69 and didn’t serve—Why? Did this flag waving loud mouth dodge service to his Country?
@rich wheeler:
You mean like Bill Clinton, who will be 69 next month, dodged service to his country? Are you going to tell us you didn’t vote for Clinton?
@rich wheeler: My first guess would be that he was going to college and had an exemption. Perhaps he went to college to avoid service or was there to protest the war; no doubt, whatever was bad will come out. However, since you ask the question, how do you feel about Bill Clinton stating, in a letter, that he “loathed” the military (even as he was avoiding service in it) and Hillary, no doubt, having the same leftist opinions? Obama never served; in fact, he never held down a job, just stirred up trouble in depressed neighborhoods and spoke about the glories of socialism to fellow socialists in college. One can only guess how highly he regarded (or regards) the military.
You would best drop the subject while you can still manage the damage.
So far The Donald has managed to blast Jeb, Marco, Perry, Graham,. and said he will win the nom. and may not back the nominee if he loses. He’s leaving open the possibility of a 3rd Party run like Perots’
.
We know he’s donated to HRC before but this time he’s helping her in ways that money can’t buy.
Are guys like Walker, Huckabee and Carson afraid to come out and play? He has stolen Cruz’s right wing thunder and he now may fail to qualify for the Fox–top 10 debate. Also on the bubble are Perry, Christie and Kasich–who will announce on July 21. Safely in appear to be Bush ,Trump ,Walker, Rubio , Carson, Huckabee and Paul.
Out Santorum, Fiorina, Graham and Jindal.
@Redteam: You were wrong about the outcome of the vote in S.C and George showed you made up a story about Dem lawmakers voting to keep it up.
Trump is a pol and lies with the best of em–why would you think otherwise?. Because he says so? The guy’s nothing but a self promoter that shows up every 4 years–first as a Dem, then as an Independent and now as a Republican. He certainly has a right to change his mind but to put this guy up as some paragon of virtue and honesty is IMO very naïve.
My husband is just turning 65 and got his draft number (256) while in college in 1969.
His number was never reached.
The lottery only started in 1969.
Trump is 69 so would have been out of a 4 year college when the lottery began.
Trump did get several draft deferments during college, as did almost all men in college.
After college he got a medical deferment.
More details, including Trump’s ”mis-remembering” parts are found here:

@rich wheeler: You are the first and only ‘straight’ person I’ve ever heard of marching in a homosexual pride parade.
Why are you getting so wound up about Trump? He starting to scare the Homo Paraders? I’ve never said I support him, but I do enjoy seeing him getting the assless chaps guys panties in a wad.
Who’re you talking about Bill Clinton? O’bammy? Lurch Kerry?
@rich wheeler:why would you question someone’s military service when you obviously supported a certified draft dodger in Slick Willie and a bonafide selective service registration dodger, Barack Obammy. Seems as if the selective service says he had a medical deferment. You have a problem with that? What’s wrong with him not releasing his records, I don’t remember you calling on Obammy to release his records.
@rich wheeler:
Sounds like some good ones to blast. Why should he promise to back the party nominee? You seen HRC promise to back her party nominee if it’s not her? I haven’t. There are very few Repubs that I would promise to back, most of them are either ineligible or are liberal socialist Rino’s.
@Redteam:Medical deferment for what–being a scared chickenshit?
Trump will knock your Conservatives like Walker and Perry out You’ll have Bush and Rubio to choose from at the end. Trump will be a major reason Dems will win again in 2016—Trump will probably show up as a Libertarian in 2020,
The next few months will be a nightmare for the Republican Party as they try to shut this guy down .He’s such a self -absorbed narcissist he won’t care if he takes the Party down.
Some think that’s his goal and President Clinton will reward him with a cabinet post.
for assuring her election.lol
Why shouldn’t my wife and I support gay rights?
I’ve walked in support of women’s rights ,civil rights and animal rights
If you ever have a parade to support reactionaries rights let me know.
@rich wheeler:
I doubt that is public information. Does it matter? You don’t consider medical disqualification legitimate? Did you still vote for Clinton after you knew he was a criminal draft dodger?
We don’t have that to worry about. The party can only go up from where it is.
Did someone tell you that you shouldn’t? Does she wear gay uniforms also or is it just you in your gay finery? Everyone should support those that they admire.
The only reactionaries of know of wear assless chaps.
@Redteam: You seem to know an awful lot about assless chaps and mention them in many of your posts How many pairs(?) do you own.
Being a reactionary do you wear them regularly? Does your wife find them a turn on when you wear them to Trump rallies?
I think voters have a right to know what medical deferment kept Trump out of the military. Particularly if it was mental.
@rich wheeler:
Everyone should support rights for everyone. However, rights that some groups invent, then determine they exist is a different matter. Further, to march along side degenerates trying to outdo each other in being obnoxious, obscene and hateful (spitting on and attacking anyone that disagrees with their lifestyle choices) is not really supporting “rights” but more supporting instigation and needless confrontation.
@rich wheeler: As in the past, you still haven’t addressed Clinton’s deferments or any other dem like Biden, Reid etc. It seems like you are applying two sets of standards based on party affiliation.
@another vet: I certainly don’t applaud Clinton’s deferments or BHO’S lack of service—though it’s not a deal breaker I would think it advantageous for a potential CIC. I also think voters should have full knowledge about medical deferments–remember Sen. Eagleton.
AV Although it’s early, please take note of my previous Trump projections.
I’m hoping Jim Webb can pull a miracle upset in Dem. primaries—I think it’s time for a proven military leader in The White House.
@rich wheeler:
Whoa, there, Bubba; I thought you said that you were pro-life. Now you are marching to support abortion, the only “women’s rights” issue that is ever being marched for? How do you square the claim to be pro-life when you march for the slaughter of unborn babies? And if you want to claim that it was for a different set of “women’s rights” why don’t you provide us with information on the event so we can judge for ourselves?
@retire05: Maybe Rich is old enough to have marched for the other women’s right….the right to get the vote?
@retire05: I am personally opposed to abortion but believe the final decision rests with the woman. I would always counsel adoption and making that process easier.I do not believe in criminalizing such an agonizing decision. Teach birth control world wide and make access to birth control easily available.
My position has “evolved” on this issue—Prior to around 2000 I was absolutely pro choice and supported that position when called apon…
@rich wheeler:
Shall we change that up?
I am personally opposed to
abortionfighting dogs and roosters, but believe the final decision rests with thewomanowners. I would always counseladoptionother, less cruel sports and making that process easier. I do not believe in criminalizing suchan agonizinga decision because who am I to judge anyone on what sports they enjoy?.yeah, that whole “babies feel pain in the womb” thing threw a monkey wrench into the “women’s health” meme that was, and is, nothing more than an excuse for legalized killing of the unborn.
The “I don’t personally support abortion but who am I to tell someone else what to do?” is just so much b/s. It’s a cop out. I’ll bet if there was a clinic somewhere where dogs were killed while still in their mom’s womb you would be more than happy to stand outside and protest that killing. But then, I doubt you’re a Christian, more like an Animist.
@rich wheeler:214
As you well know, they’re only worn in homo rights parades, and they don’t have those in Louisiana.
I don’t recall you demanding Obammy tell us why he had a fraudulent Selective service registration card, a stolen SS no. and a fake birth certificate. Other than that………………….
@rich wheeler: 217
when was the last time we had one, and what did he accomplish that was outstanding? With Clinton it wasn’t his deferment, it was his criminal draft dodging.
Animal rights don’t include human baby rights? You really think a woman that is 8.9 months pregnant has the ‘right’ to abort a baby for no reason other than she changed her mind? That’s what your answer says. Oh, and what Retire05 said………..
I think it’s interesting that ‘animal rights’ supporters put more emphasis on animal life and rights than they do human rights. Look at Rich’s positions on ‘all life is precious’ uh, well, uh, except unborn babies. Go ahead an flush them down the toilet, but goodness, but sure that you don’t accidentally step on a cockroach. Double standard? Say what?
@Redteam: My question was how do you know so much about them?–It would seem you must own em and probably wear them on occasion.
The subject was medical deferments–As usual you change the subject or make stuff up.
@rich wheeler:
You don’t applaud Clinton’s deferments but you also don’t bash him for it the way you have done with politicians who have an ‘R’ behind their name. As for BHO’s lack of service, most likely the next POTUS won’t have any either and that goes ditto for most POTUS’s here on out. We are a dying breed. In 2016 I will have a rare choice between two Vets who are running for U.S. Senate- Mark Kirk and Tammy Duckworth (who also happens to be my Congressional Rep). So I have a choice between someone who embellished his military service and another who is an Obama cheerleader. It looks like the Libertarian candidate will be getting a real hard look. And I will make my first 2016 election prediction. Duckworth will win by a minimum of five points.
@another vet: Dem. Duckworth’s story is inspiring and her victory in Illinois would be a huge Senate pick up. More later on Sen. predictions 2016.
@rich wheeler: That seat is a guarantee pick up for the dems. I believe it will be offset in Nevada when Mr. Obstructionist’s seat turns red.
@another vet: Quick look at Senate shows only 4 of 36 competitive–one Dem NV and three Repub. Fl. ,Il. and WI Repubs. will hold Senate.
@Redteam #222:
“As you well know, they’re only worn in homo rights parades, and they don’t have those in Louisiana.”
AGAIN?
SO SOON????
Why do you keep making up stuff that you know nothing about?
If you had managed to get as far as Junior High School, you’d have learned that you can look at a map and see which cities are in which states.
Then, just maybe, you’d have discovered that the city of New Orleans is in Louisiana.
THEN, if you could actually READ newspapers – or if you bothered to watch REAL news on television instead of depending on Rush Limbaugh and Fox News to spoon-feed you the delusional substitute for reality that you refuse to escape from – you’d have seen coverage of the Gay Pride Parades that have been held in that city for quite a few years.
And before you make up some MORE nonsense about New Orleans being some sort of exception to your rule, you’d better look into Baton Rouge’s gay pride events, and that’s YOUR capital!
But why would you bother to fact-check your nonsense before letting it bite you in the backside? You throw out $hit just to give people something to fuss with you about. You should see a professional about that… it ain’t right.
@rich wheeler:
No, no occasion. I only see them on tv in the homo parade’s. They seem to be standard attire for the homosexuals. That’s why I suggested you should get some that don’t bind you up so much.
So if the medical deferment was for being homosexual, you’d be ok with it. Change the subject, you still haven’t addressed Bill’s felony draft dodging.
@rich wheeler: Another Vet, I didn’t know you are from Illinois. You don’t stand a chance on politicians. I don’t think the state has had a honest one for at least the last 60 years, probably longer.
@George Wells: RT has always been about making things up. You caught him on the flag issue. Not knowing about The Parades in his own state? That Louisiana home schooling I guess.
EXAMPLE Has Bill Clinton ever been indicted on or convicted of felony draft charges Yes or No RT George is watching you
@George Wells:
Those are called Mardi Gras parades, and they have them every year.
yep, almost made it. Only got the equivalent of an Ivy league ed while in grammar school.
Ahhh the unenlightened. Rush hasn’t been on tv in years. Fox News? There are no other news networks, are there? We have a few public broadcast networks such as NBC and CBS, but no news networks.
I can’t, we no longer have any in the South.
Ahhh, the homosexual’s feeding grounds? You’ll have to write up some directions for that one day for your newbies.
you should stop posting about homosexual practices. Well, unless you’re proud of them.
@rich wheeler:
He was charged with it, don’t know if he got indicted with it or not. Doesn’t matter to you, you would’ve voted for him either way. Google says he was ordered to report for induction and did not report. That is a criminal act. Was he charged? Don’t know, don’t care. I already know what quality he is, don’t need any reinforcement
@Redteam:and AV The great Repub Sen. Everett Dirkson, an early champion of Civil Rights,hailed from the great state of Illinois.
Our next President is a native “daughter”
RT Clinton was not indicted “charged with it” By who? You and Bill
So if I “charge you” with being an habitual liar that’s all I gotta do to make it so? Strange justice RT
@rich wheeler: As I said. I don’t need to repeat myself, well, except for a few.
@rich wheeler:
by who ever charges draft dodgers.
@Redteam: Our record with governors going to jail is probably unsurpassed. The state is completely hosed. It is run by the Chicago Machine and the unions. The current a governor (a rare Republican) is trying to straighten out the mess but the same pols who put us in the mess are resisting.
@rich wheeler: After Lincoln, this state has produced mostly crooks and liars regardless of how successful they turned out. As a matter of fact, the successful ones became successful by being crooks and liars. If HRC gets in there, that’ll be two in a row from Illinois who prove my point.
@another vet:
I’m gonna bet Rich is not gonna agree with you.
@Redteam #234:
Gee, REDTEAM!
Your making mistakes is getting worse.
MARDI GRAS is in February… Fat Tuesday and all that, right?
Well, the New Orleans Gay Pride Parade is held every year… IN JUNE!
You might consider fact-checking yourself once in a while, and stop trying to prove what a moron you are.
You’re not REALLY this stupid, are you?
@George Wells: I’m about as caught up as I need to be on homosexuals, I’m not Rich Wheeler so I won’t be attending. I’m so interested in the subject that I have never heard of queers in New Orleans. Oh well, learn somethng new every day. Hope they stay there or up in Va where you are. Seems as if Rich is the one that needs a schedule for homosexual rights parades. Seems as if he’s putting them on his calendar. Seems as if he’s had a whole new world open to him.
@George Wells:This the gays in New Orleans that you are proud of?

@Redteam:
You are so clueless.
No wonder, seeing how you get your “information” from junk media.
It isn’t a matter of your being “caught up.” It’s a matter of your being WRONG.
Being WRONG isn’t the same as being “caught up,” is it?
And wrong so… MANY… times!
It isn’t even funny anymore.
Just pathetic.
@George Wells:
Oh my goodness, you don’t like reading about homosexual activities?
Let me get this straight. If they write about perverts, it’s junk media?
What, you don’t appreciate me being ‘wrong’ so that you have a role model to point to?
Geez, and here I thought you would appreciate me writing about your favorite topics.
Rich, you need to defend George here. Birds of a feather, etc……..
@Redteam: Your continuous gay bashing would certainly seem to indicate some latent homosexual tendencies on your part RT.A number of your Southern pastors have had the same problem.
The ease with which you deride your fellow human beings would also show why the jump to being a racist comes easily for you..
George needs no defending. He shows you up on a very consistent basis—
@rich wheeler:
I never bring it up, I only respond. You initiated when you told us you were in a homosexual parade. I just congratulated you on coming out.
Deride? You make sure you tell us all about your homosexual activities and then think when I congratulate you on participating, that is ‘deriding’? Well……………. Damned if you do, damned if you don’t. These homosexuals just can’t make up their minds.
Then why are you defending him? I agree with you, on most things George has a level head. He claims he was born with defective brain wiring, I respect that opinion.
@Redteam: Where we differ RT is I accept the rights of gays and you are a proud homophobe. You have also shown yourself to be a racist. For that there is really no excuse.
Join the 21st century old man—It’s not too late to fight against those that degrade our fellow beings—It’s a new day. Enjoy it.
@rich wheeler:
Do you also accept the rights of pedophiles, those who are into beastiality, those who get sexual satisfaction watching child pornography, exhibitionists who like to flash unsuspecting people, or any of the myriad of other sexual disorders? Because if you support the mental disorder of homosexuality as a normal human condition and believe those who suffer from it have rights to engage in that activity unfettered, you cannot deny the same right to those who suffer from similar sexual mental disorders.
Rich, you are a typical and predictable liberal/progressive. Do you even know what a phobia is? You are saying that RT fears homosexuals. Do you really believe anyone “fears” homosexuals? Or is it that when you have no argument, you reach for the most convenient pejorative you can find?
Again, predictable and typical left wing statement. How is RT, or anyone for that matter, a racist? What constitutes a racist in your opinion? Is someone who would be afraid to walk alone at night in the ghettos of America a racist if their skin tone was fair? Are you saying that there are no neighborhoods in California that you would not avoid walking alone in the middle of the night knowing the ethnic/racial makeup of those neighborhoods? I know you think you’re a badass, but your not stupid.
Your stance on abortion reminds me of the Germans that claimed they didn’t want the Jews killed while they still supported the government that did. Now you support a mental illness that should be treated, not normalized, not legitimized. How many young men, mostly all homosexuals, have to die from HIV/AIDS because people like you ignore what is at the end of your nose; that normalizing homosexuality had resulted in thousands and thousands of needless deaths. And yes, one of the resulting effects of this normalization is a rise in STDs in homosexual men. Too bad you liberals don’t care enough about them to want to help save their lives by trying to find a cure for their illness.
