"The superior man, when resting in safety, does not forget that danger may come. When in a state of security he does not forget the possibility of ruin. When all is orderly, he does not forget that disorder may come. Thus his person is not endangered, and his States and all their clans are preserved." -- Confucius

The Left's Battle for New York

FrontPageMagazine -- Leftist protestors and Democratic Party supporters have promised to hit New York City in force during next week's Republican National Convention -- and many of them are openly advocating violence. The “RNC Not Welcome” website advises its protestors, “The only time it's okay to speak about illegal actions is when you are planning them with the small group of trusted people who will be doing the action with you.” This website is far from alone in its open calls to perpetrate violence in the streets to a degree not seen since 9/11. Yet New York City authorities -- Republican authorities, at that -- are offering these protestors into town, even giving these “tourists” discounts during their stay in the Big Apple.


Hmm... the predictable (leftist protestors getting violent) meets the unpredictable (did you get your dicount button yet?). I hope Mayor Bloomburg's idea works. But I highly doubt that the anarchists, communists, and radicals bent on violence are going to be swayed by 20% off at Applebee's.

Syndicated leftist cartoonist Ted Rall -- whose career has been based on mocking the dead, from the victims at Columbine High School to Pat Tillman and Ronald Reagan -- outed his radical brethren in a recent column. “Creatively altered maps of streets and subways will be handed out to button-clad stupid white men,” Rall writes. “Other saboteurs wearing fake RNC T-shirts will direct them to parts of town where Bush's policies have hit hardest. Rumor has it that prostitutes suffering from sexually transmitted diseases will discourage the use of condoms with Republican customers.” He revealed the obvious: these anti-Republican protests were not about voicing dissent but silencing the GOP.


Sigh, I wonder if Ted Rall this oxygen bandit actually believes the bullshit he forks out, or if he feels it's the only way he can get his name mentioned in the papers. The Gods know he can't rely upon his "talent" to do it for him.

If you find yourself on or leaning towards the right, it's important to know about these people.

If you find yourself leaning on or leaning towards the left, it's even more important to know about these people.
