Labor Day

One Tyson foods plant in Tennessee has voted to replace Labor Day as a paid holiday with the the end of Ramadan; the link attached to the title of this post gives a brief history of Labor Day.  In short, some of the major beneficiaries of the original Labor Day was immigrants.  However, since it was a day off for all of Labor, it can be argued that it benefitted all of American labor, and was a unifying date.

The move by this particular Tyson plant is for the benefit of 250 of 1200 employees who are Somali Muslim immigrants.  Instead of a unifying event, this plant is dividing itself from the rest of America.

How sad.

Note to Barry

1) You are running for president of the United States - NOT THE WORLD (or are you?);

2) By not mentioning Kennedy or Reagan in your speech, you just showed the world that you have the world's biggest ego.

Politically Correct Fox News

Click on the link above.  Okay... I am not PC, so I have to ask if Islam had anything to do with this, and if the answer is "yes", then why is it not part of the story.  If "no", then that should be made clear as well so people like me don't make stupid assumptions.

St. Sabina, Chicago - Is it Catholic Anymore?

St. Sabina, the "faith community" led by the bombastic anti-American Fr. Pfleger has two interesting things on its two websites. At www.saintsabina.org (which appears to be a conduit to the main site) is the picture above.  What exactly is this a representation of?  It is not St. Sabina; is it a Black God, which, therefore, rejects the concept of a Jewish Aramaic Savior?

On it's main website, is a silly little bit asking for the immediate re-installation of Fr. Bombastic as pastor.  They're lucky that it's only two weeks.  Actually they would be really lucky if a real Catholic were to take charge of the pastor's chair.

Pope Benedict v. Fr. Pfleger

On  May 25th in his sermon, Fr. Pfleger, among other things, told the congregation at Trinity that "America is the greatest sin against God."  The Pope, on his visit to the White House, praised much of what is America's heritage and finished with: "Mr. President, dear friends: as I begin my visit to the United States, I express once more my gratitude for your invitation, my joy to be in your midst, and my fervent prayers that Almighty God will confirm this nation and its people in the ways of the justice, prosperity and peace.  God Bless America!"

Seven Reasons to Vote McCain

Barr and Paul are jackasses.  The next president will likely appoint six new Supreme Court justices plus have to fight the war in Iraq.  Conservatives need to remember this when going to the polls or the convention.

Obama in the 18th Century

On Meet the Press on Sunday, Senator Obama stated that if the Iraqi government and nation wasn't fixed by the end of 7 years, that it would not be fixed by our intervention continuing for 14, 28 or 56 years.

Let's apply that logic to the Constitutional Convention in the United States and abolition.

Meet the Press: So, if you cannot convince the delegates to the Constitutional Convention to abolish slavery now, what will you do?

Abolitionist: Well, if we cannot convince them now, we won't be able to convince them ever; so, we should pull out of the union with the south...
