Anderson: Standing up for Israel

Barbara Anderson The Salem News The Salem News Wed Nov 21, 2012, 03:30 AM EST

“Enough of the silence.
It’s time to speak up.
It’s time to speak out.
It’s time to speak truth.
It’s time to speak on behalf of Israel.”
— Rabbi Baruch HaLevi,

Congregation Shirat Hayam
of the North Shore


Timeout from dealing with the aftermath of the election in Massachusetts, to be one gentile columnist speaking up, speaking out, speaking truth on behalf of Israel.
Sunday evening, Chip Ford and I attended the Israel Solidarity Rally in Swampscott.
We’ve been watching the news reports about the ongoing rocket attacks on Israel by the terrorist group Hamas. There had been 1,300 rockets since January of this year, close to 2,000 more this month; more than 14,000 since 2001, which was our own turn to face the hatred of radical Muslims.
Fortunately, Israelis have their own version of President Reagan’s “Star Wars” program, meant to protect us from an attack by the Soviet Union during the Cold War; their “Iron Dome” has shot down most of the rockets, or Israel would have been wiped off the map as its Arab enemies have long desired.
We Americans wouldn’t put up with, on average, three rockets a day; we would respond as we did in Afghanistan, which harbored the terrorists who attacked us. As I write this, the Israeli army is poised on the border with Palestine, preparing to invade if their air-attack defense doesn’t end the aggression. Meanwhile, pro-Hamas activists rally in some of our cities, blaming Israel for defending itself. Time for all good Americans to speak up and speak out.
I’m not getting into the religious aspect of God giving the Holy Land to the Jews, either before or after the Romans occupied it. The simple historic truth, as far as I can determine it, is this: After Rome, Turkey occupied Palestine. Turkey picked the wrong side in World War I, joining with Germany; they lost. Great Britain, which led the battles in the Mideast, won Palestine and allowed Jews to settle there. After World War II, when aggressive Germany lost again, the United Nations partitioned the area between the Israelis and the Palestinians.
The Arab border countries immediately attacked. Israel won. The Arabs attacked again in 1967 — I remember the Six Day War, which the Israelis won, picking up now-disputed land in the process. In 2005, they agreed to turn over part of the area to the Palestinians. Terrorist organization Hamas used its new space to launch more rockets at Israel. This month, it stepped up the attacks.
So where does history go from here? If Israel falls, terrorism wins; evil wins, as it almost won in WWII.
I do wish the United Nations had given the Jews Germany instead of Israel, and left the terrorists to live in ignorance on their oil. After we taught the necessary lesson in Afghanistan, and once we made (and make) sure that no country has weapons of mass destruction to use against us and our other allies, it would be nice to be out of there. As young Israelis now face death and wounds from an invasion, young Americans and members of the Coalition of the Willing have died and been disabled in the Middle East. Now that the United States is poised to become energy-independent, there is no other reason for us to be there than defense of Israel against barbarians.
As Washington, D.C., tries to find a rational immigration policy, it should start by inviting Israelis to come here, where their brains, industry and courage will enhance the American dream as long as they don’t join the liberal American Jews who vote, incredibly, for Big Government and for gun control.
In the meantime, we prayed at the rally in Swampscott, on behalf of our brothers and friends: “Peace to you, I wish the best for you.” I hope we have this to be thankful for, on our American Thanksgiving Day.
Here is a related item for which I am thankful this week: My nephew (from my second marriage) Benjamin Morse has just published the children’s Bible (Part 1, Old Testament) that he’s been working on for eight years. “The Oldest Bedtime Story Ever” from the Bible Beautiful Series is a joyous work of art. With his two master’s degrees, one in biblical interpretation at Oxford University and the other in modern art at the Courtauld Institute in London, Ben has created an amazing book using his medium of cutout figures and colorful patterns, with whimsical touches like Noah’s family wearing yellow rain slickers, and charming narrative.
He gave me my autographed copy when he was here last weekend. It’s just available at Amazon, I am ordering several for Christmas presents. His mother, Marblehead native Jane Anderson Morse, was one of the first women ordained an Episcopal minister. She died at age 51; her son honored her by using her photo in the cutout of the whirlwind from which God spoke to Job.
Jane got her doctorate on the Book of Job, which remains a mystery to many of us. Yet I’ll end with the Jewish prayer that I always say at Thanksgiving dinner: “Grateful, am I, to You.”

Tea Party movement changing,
but need for fiscal responsibility a constant

It's been four years, yet I remember it as if it were yesterday — the creation of the modern Tea Party movement, which gave patriot activists hope after the disappointing 2008 election.

Before then, the spirit of the original Boston Tea Party had been kept alive by state/local taxpayer groups scattered across America, and the National Taxpayers Union (NTU) and Americans for Tax Reform (ATR) in Washington, D.C. Along with the traditional tax issues, the national deficit and debt issue was addressed by the NTU's Balanced Budget Amendment, and popularized by Ross Perot and his quixotic 1992 presidential campaign, which became the loosely organized United We Stand America.

Not since the Silent Majority elected Ronald Reagan in 1980 (while passing Proposition 2½ here in Massachusetts) had we seen ordinary Americans inspired to outstanding political action as they were with United We Stand.

My partner, Chip Ford, was one of its local leaders, as closely as that word applies to loosely organized groups. He tells a dramatic, sometimes funny, but ultimately very sad story of how United We Stand fell down amidst internal wrangling and the loss of its focus.

So he and I watched with a mixture of excitement and trepidation the rise of the Tea Party movement, happily associating ourselves with these kindred spirits while fearfully awaiting the first internal battle. After a year went by with the Tea Party growing and then another year that brought it unprecedented success in the midterm elections, we started to believe that this time things would be different.

It still amazes me that Tea Party leaders — again, if the word "leader" applies — held it together as long as they did. As executive director of Citizens for Limited Taxation (CLT), I'd spent my share of patriotic holidays tossing boxes of tea into Boston Harbor; now I watched with delight as two bright, energetic young women, Corie Whalen and Christen Varley, organized the Greater Boston Tea Party (GBTP) and held the first Patriots Day rally on Boston Common in 2009.

CLT's associate director, Chip Faulkner, spoke there and at other Tea Party rallies in Worcester and Lowell that day.

One year later, the two Chips and I were in Boston for the GBTP rally with Sarah Palin; last year, Chip Faulkner was there to hear Tim Pawlenty speak. Chip Ford and I attended rallies on the North Shore. Good times, a chance to see old friends and make new ones. But we're no longer comfortable with our social-conservative local tea party.

Faulkner will be speaking at the 2012 rally, which this year is being held in Worcester from 2 to 4 p.m. at 1 Lincoln Square [map] on Sunday, April 15, thereby inspiring the theme "Tax Day Tea Party, Turn the Tide" — referring to the coming election with its related issues of the economy, taxes and the national debt. Other expected speakers are philosophy professor Andrew Bernstein, author of "Capitalist Solutions — a Philosophy of American Moral Dilemmas"; Mary-Alice Perdichizzi, representing a new generation with the Brandeis Tea Party; and Aaron Goldstein, American Spectator contributor.

Unfortunately, the founding Greater Boston Tea Party won't be holding its annual rally on Boston Common; that event was hijacked by social conservatives who disagree with the Tea Party's singular focus on fiscal issues and want to use it to advance their own agenda. By getting a city permit before the GBTP could finalize theirs, the "other Tea Party," or what I call the Kool-Aid Party, forced the fiscal conservatives to celebrate Patriots Day elsewhere.

Corie Whalen is now in Houston, serving as South Central Regional Director of Young Americans for Liberty. Christen Varley is presently with her family in Ohio, though she is still on the GBTP Board; she recently told me "there are people like us all over the country filling in the ranks of activists and local pols who are climbing the ladder and learning. Instead of thinking, 'This is the year we have to win,' I like to think, 'this is just the beginning of our winning streak.'"

Her successor at GBTP is another early organizer, Christine Morabito, who is also involved with the Merrimack Valley Tea Party. She and MVTP/CLT activist Ted Tripp will be in Worcester on Sunday. He and Faulkner will be reminding the crowd that as it pays its taxes on April 17 this year, it will also be celebrating Tax Freedom Day — the day that, according to the Washington-based Tax Foundation, the nation's taxpayers will have paid for government at all levels and will now be working for themselves (though in Massachusetts we will be working to cover our higher state and local tax burden until April 22).

They'll also note that in 1904, when Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes described taxes as "the price we pay for a civilized society," there was no federal income tax, and Tax Freedom Day was Jan. 21. The national debt, now almost $16 trillion, was $26 billion.

America badly needs the Tea Party to help restore civilization; I hope its fiscal conservatives can prevail campaigning on the fiscal issues on which most Americans can agree come this November.

Now my commentary

Barbara you have a nerve attacking social Conservatives are you now one with the so called Pro-Israeli column.So what are you A Libertarian,Tea Party Fiscal Conservative what are you.I can put it in real terms you are a fraud you have always been and always will be.

 

How The Left Steals Our Income

This is the perfect example of how the Government steals from us

 

The Truth Has Come After The Election

This describes perfectly where the Massachusetts Republican party has gone over the last 15-20 years of course this pictures shows what has to happen in Massachusetts and around the rest of the country.Liberalism has been at the heart of the Republican party letting to rest like a cancer.
Especially in Massachusetts where Mitt Romney was nominated by the GOP as their Presidential nominee and RINOS like Richard Tisei was the nominee for the 6th Congressional district but lost narrowly to US.Rep John "money launderer" Tierney.

NYT Wanting To Mess Up Our Election Process

Opinion/Editorial





 

    It's just two days away and the New York Times is still showing its left wing thickheadedness by poking its nose into our election process.Ths mornings lead OPED is entitled "Editorial | The Struggle to Cast a VoteUpholding Democracy, Ballot by Ballot."
   Its only a struggle if you idiots in the left wing lame stream media report it that way like back in 2000 with the now household politically correct term "disenfranchised" came into the norm.
   Now to the BS "This year, voting is more than just the core responsibility of citizenship; it is an act of defiance against malicious political forces determined to reduce access to democracy. Millions of ballots on Tuesday — along with those already turned in — will be cast despite the best efforts of Republican officials around the country to prevent them from playing a role in the 2012 election."
  Here we go the NYT wants to talk about responsibility how about reporting the news more accurately without the BS bias.Oh yeah that little scare tactic "it is an act of defiance against malicious political forces determined to reduce access to democracy" all this after President Barrack HUSSEIN Obama talked about revenge.One other point the Black panther party back in 2008 were not intimdating voters at the polls were they espcially when they didnt vote for this fraud Obama  no its a figment of my imagination LOL!
  It goes on "Even now, many Republicans are assembling teams to intimidate voters at polling places, to demand photo ID where none is required, and to cast doubt on voting machines or counting systems whose results do not go their way. The good news is that the assault on voting will not affect the election nearly as much as some had hoped. Courts have either rejected or postponed many of the worst laws. Predictions that up to five million people might be disenfranchised turned out to be unfounded."
  Oh thats right Union thugs never intimidated voters either right oh ok just checking.here in Pennsylvania people have to show their IDS why not scared NYT!
  Now as with everything liberals do there is a racial excuse "But a great deal of damage has already been done, and the clearest example is that on Sunday in Florida, people will not be allowed to vote early. Four years ago, on the Sunday before Election Day, tens of thousands of Floridians cast their ballots, many of them black churchgoers who traveled directly from services to their polling places. Because most of them voted for Barack Obama, helping him win the state, Republicans eliminated early voting on that day. No legitimate reason was given; the action was entirely partisan in nature.

The author of that law, as The Palm Beach Post revealed last week, was Emmett Mitchell IV, the general counsel for the state Republican Party. Under his guidance, party officials in Florida got thousands of perfectly eligible black voters purged from the rolls in 2000, and got a law passed last year that limited registration drives and early voting days. A federal judge struck down the registration limits, but not before they drove down the numbers of new registrants."

  I must have been under the wrong impression that now we have our first as the left puts it "the first African-American President" the issue of race has gone away my bad its now even worse.

  More on the issue of race "One of the biggest attempts to reduce the turnout of minority voters, poor people and others likely to vote Democratic has been the imposition of photo ID requirements, under the guise of preventing nonexistent voter fraud. In Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas and Wisconsin, courts have blocked these laws or postponed them until after the election, but the issue is by no means dead, and Republicans can be expected to continue to press their self-serving case.

In Iowa and Wisconsin, the Romney campaign has given its poll watchers misleading or incorrect information — for instance, that voters should show an ID in Iowa, where none is required — which could create disputes and long lines, most likely in Democratic precincts."

  Im not defending the GOP but the voter id issue is for EVERYONE NYT you idiots.

  Now more election excuses by the NYT "One of the saddest signs of the politicization of the voting process and the counting of ballots has been the armies of lawyers assembled by both parties in the swing states where the vote is likely to be the closest. Much of this would be unnecessary if not for the requirements that Republicans have tried to put in place, which force Democrats to make sure that provisional ballots are not thrown out or mishandled. (In Nevada, Republicans are already preparing their challenge by claiming, with absolutely no evidence, that some machines are malfunctioning in Mr. Obama’s favor.) Public outcry, with support from the courts, may eventually remove these threats to democracy. For now, those who contribute to a heavy turnout on Tuesday will send a message that Americans reject any underhanded effort to place political gain above a franchise for which people have given their lives."

 Oh NYT must I remind you dumb asses but I will anyway circa 2000 the same year you all coined the aforementiond PC phrase "disenfranchised" Democrat nominee VP Al "I invented the internet and Global Warming hoaxer" Gore in Florida election dispute remember dimples hanging chads highered a ton of lawyers before Bush did.

 Im laughing my ass off on this one NYT removing a threat to democracy every time you morons print an unpatritotic OPED you ruin our DEMOCRACY

 

 

  

A See I Told You So

Christie Was the First Choice: the Romney Campaign's Veep Buyer's Remorse

By Connor Simpson | The Atlantic Wire

The Romney campaign officially has Paul Ryan buyer's remorse. Citing "campaign insiders," Politico's Mike Allen and Jim Vandehei report Mitt's first choice for Vice President was New Jersey Governor Chris Christie.
Romney liked Chirstie so much because of his "street fighter" style of politics. He thought Christie would be able to play that "Chicago style" game and that Romney struggles with (and the Obama campaign excels at). Christie was so close to getting the nod that some people inside the campaign thought he had received the offer in July, before Mitt went on his trip to the Olympics. But, ultimately, Christie's brash style and "explosiveness" soured the feeling he'd be a good number two among campaign officials. He would command too much attention, and might be difficult to work with in the White House, they decided. After Romney came back from the Olympics, he decided on Paul Ryan and left the others hanging.
The question becomes: why bring this up now? Why would campaign officials bring up the fact that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie was Mitt's first choice for VP before the election is over?
With the odds looking so slim leading into election day, it sure seems like buyer's remorse. You know buyer's remore is, right? It's when you're choosing between a roast beef sandwich and a turkey sandwich, and you choose one only to realize after the first few bites that you really wanted roast beef. That's buyer's remore. Paul Ryan is a turkey sandwich. Paul Ryan was supposed to ignite the base and win the heartland. Has he done that? Ehn. The most telling evidence that members of Romney's inner circle regret going with the Wisconsinite instead of the hard-charging Jersey boy is this quote:

     “He’d be great anywhere there are ordinary white men,” the official said. “They would have loved him because here’s this straight-talking, hard-charging, in-your-face guy, and he’s a man’s man. Ohio is the only battleground state where Mitt has a net negative gender gap — where his approval among men doesn’t outweigh the president’s approval among women. Chris Christie changes that.”

Christie's spent the last week impressing the centrists and becoming BFFs with the President. We know Romney's been pursuing the white vote aggressively, so that they singled out "white men" shouldn't be a surprise. The good press Chris Christie's received is staggering. So there's the theory that, had they picked Christie and he was on their side through Sandy, Romney might be ahead if the street fighter one was his number two.


Commenatry

I knew it all along that the dumb fat ass RINO Gov Chris Christie was Romney's first initial pick for VP.Good thing Romney didnt pick this fat loser
