The Collectivist News … excerpts from today’s issue of The Union News.
ACORN whistle-blower has a blog … Are you wondering why Congressman Jerrold Nadler (D.-N.Y.) is blocking a Congressional investigation of ACORN (the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now)? Or why Aaron Dorfman, Executive Director of the National Committee for Responsive Philanthropy, put out a fundraising appeal for ACORN on September 24, 2008 beginning “It’s time for funders to resume funding ACORN, and to consider major new investments in the organization in the coming year. In times like these, the country needs ACORN back at full strength”? For its readers, The New York Times has not offered a clue. If you want to know, ACORN whistleblower Anita MonCrief’s blog (www.anitamoncrief.blogspot.com) is the place for you. Go to it and read all her posts, especially the most recent two.

Napolitano needs to look Left … A 52-year-old Oklahoma City man was arrested on tax day for threatening to kill people attending a taxpayer tea party protest at the state Capitol. News of the arrest came after the Department of Homeland Security issued a controversial report warning of the increase in violent “right-wing extremism in the United States.” According to an FBI criminal complaint, Daniel Knight Hayden, who went by the name CitizenQuasar on a popular microblogging site, threatened murder on several occasions in the run-up to tax day. On April 11 he posted a message on Twitter that said,”The WAR wWIL [sic] start on the stepes [sic] of the Oklahoma State Capitol. I will cast the first stone.” (washingtontimes.com)
New Prog Era: 100 days, 100 mistakes … [N.B. link includes slideshow] 1. “Obama criticized pork barrel spending in the form of ‘earmarks,’ urging changes in the way that Congress adopts the spending proposals. Then he signed a spending bill that contains nearly 9,000 of them, some that members of his own staff shoved in last year when they were still members of Congress. ‘Let there be no doubt, this piece of legislation must mark an end to the old way of doing business, and the beginning of a new era of responsibility and accountability,’ Obama said.” — McClatchy, 3/11 • 2. “There is no doubt that we’ve been living beyond our means and we’re going to have to make some adjustments.” — Obama during the campaign. • 3. This year’s budget deficit: $1.5 trillion. • 4. Asks his Cabinet to cut costs in their departments by $100 million — a whopping .0027%! • 5. “The White House says the president is unaware of the tea parties.” — ABC News, 4/15 (nypost.com)
Details of socialized health-care begin to emerge … “Activist” groups lavishly funded by multi-billionaire George Soros — the de facto leader of the Democrat Party — have ordered their puppet in the White House and their Reid-Pelosi minions on Capitol Hill to stop talking, even talking with private health interests behind closed doors — where they are accused of plotting to “cave” to (gasp!) the “for profit” private insurance industry. (And we all know how capitalist profits are inherently evil, don’t we? Except for Democrat Party leader Soros, who swims in billions — says he is having a “glorious crisis” — while the rest of us watch our portfolios/savings plummet.) Our guess is they have nothing to worry about as far as President Obama is concerned. What these socialist activists have reason to fear is the reaction of the American people when they become acquainted with the details likely to emerge in the witches brew in store for them if socialized medicine comes to America.
