E-mail From SpiritofTheRuins on Racism

I think, at some point, it might be a good idea to address racism, giving examples of it, real examples, on your blog. Today, I was in arwen's room, and Hot2Speak entered asking the room to address Imus' comments regarding the 'all girl black (basketball i think she said) team..calling them whores, nappy haired...etc and getting away with it. This team consists of YOUNG girls..not that it would be accepted if they were adults. She asked people to write msnbc, call, etc, and immediately, got hit with, by chatters, calling her racist. Then Jungle referred to her as 'darky' and said it was ok because Hot said 'it will take all white people to change this'.

Last week I read on the news, a white guy murdered, dismembered, then burned pieces of a black male's body and hid the charred pieces all over the place. That white man got 10 years in jail. If it was the other way around, you and I know, the black male would have gotten the death penalty.

I don't understand why Caucasians get twisted when called 'white'. Do they get twisted when they refer to earth colored people as 'black' or 'Indian'? Do they believe thier news anchors are racists when they say 'Black' or 'Mexican'. Do they shout at the tv the way they shout in paltalk? I think not. They are conditioned to refer to people of earth colors as black, indian, mexican and a host of more derogatory slurs..and think nothing of it. But damn should a black person or native person use the word 'white'....a flood of negative emotions pour in.

The brain dead believe USA is the land of the free, equal rights, and all are considered equal. Their ancestors believed that as they hung young men and women, african and native, as an after church activity, praising god as their lifeless bodies swayed. And that twisted take on what freedom is is what we have today......all is ok as long as the white man is safe, as long as the xian is safe. And no white man, woman, or child gets the same court judgement as an earth colored man, woman or child..and we are seeing it more and more...especially in the south. No surprise there..after all, this is the evangelical bible belt of the nation.

MSNBC suspends Imus

MSNBC suspends Imus simulcast for two weeks - Radio - MSNBC.com

I was an Imus fan at one time, I remember when he was just starting out in NYC. Use to love when he had Terry Bradshaw on and now I guess I'll have to be happy watching Terry when he's on Leno. Imus claims he's a nice person.... Don, Nice people don't say racist things.

Kool-Aid Drinkers

Posted by Bill on his THE O'REILLY FACTOR

Most Ridiculous Item

We're getting quite a bit of action on our billoreilly.com poll question: Will actor Charlie Sheen damage his career if he narrates a 9/11 conspiracy film?

Some of those voting are far left Kool-Aid drinkers told to support Sheen by nutty Web sites they visit.

Now I really feel sorry for these people, I do, as they are similar to the ones who followed crazy Jim Jones down to South America in the `70s and wound up drinking a poison Kool-Aid-like substance which of course killed them.

People who are incapable of thinking of themselves are always exploited, always, thus the name, Kool-Aid drinkers.

In addition, they are ridiculous. But we want you to vote on our poll, those of you who are thinking for yourselves.

------

Seems to me the Kool-Aid drinkers are the ones that follow people like Bill and Fox News blindly. That refuse to question and only nod their heads in agreement to every lie that comes out of this administration. These are the Brainwashed and Bushwhacked ones, not the so called Left Wing Kool-Aid ones. We have been asking questions since Bush stole his first election.

Eli Lilly's corruption involving Zyprexa

MindFreedom is the home of Support Coalition International. I was at the founding conference in NYC 1990 and was a member for many years. SCI fights Psychiatric Abuse... Some folks might think that SCI is a Radical Organization but I disagree. I have said many times that I am pro-choice when it comes to Psych Meds but Anti-ECT. This is the latest fight that David Oaks and friends have been waging.

The New York Times ran a new story on 23 March 2007 that again exposes corruption by Eli Lilly in its promotion of its psychiatric drug Zyprexa. The Times has run quite a number of pieces ever since the formerly-secret Zyprexa files were exposed by PsychRights founder attorney Jim Gottstein, who leaked the documents to NY Times journalist Alex Berenson.

Despite The New York Times widespread coverage of the secret files, Eli Lilly did not name The NY Times in its request for a permanent order from US District Court, although the judge himself claimed The NY Times played played an active role in obtaining the documents.

Mainstream media is usually so silent when it comes to covering psychiatric drug hazards, that this silence may have helped motivate the lawyer and doctor who originally blew the whistle on Eli Lilly documents. Court documents claim The NY Times may have offered to cover the story as long as the paper was promised an exclusive. Jim Gottstein is founder of PsychRights, which is a sponsor group of MindFreedom International.

Got to their website for the whole story and latest updates.

F*ck Bill O'Reilly

Warning to those of you that have Virgin Ears

Snoop goes off on Bill after Bill says this about Snoop
From Think Progress

Fox News host Bill O’Reilly has repeatedly gone after rapper Snoop Dogg, saying that he “likes to carry around guns that can kill people” and should be in jail. On a recent interview with Dutch television, Snoop hit back, saying, “F*ck Bill O’Reilly.” Last night, O’Reilly responded: “Yes, like Calvin lives in the ghetto. Is a pool boy going to beat me up there, Snoopy? And of course, he’s welcome to come in here to the No Spin Zone, but we do have drug testing.”

About 40 picket the conservative firebrand

Monday, April 02, 2007

By Nate Guidry, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Ann Coulter, the controversial conservative columnist, wasted little time raising the heat index at the University of Pittsburgh's David Lawrence Hall last night.

Speaking at the request of the College Republicans and Young America's Foundation, Ms. Coulter talked about everything from Hillary Clinton and the upcoming presidential elections to the war in Iraq, liberal sissies, and the "godless liberals" and their hate for America.

When asked what she would do if ever elected president, she responded with a smile and said, "Deport all liberals."

About an hour before the lecture, nearly 40 students from the Pitt College Democrats and other organizations protested outside the entrance to David Lawrence Hall.

Holding posters that read "Honk Your Horn If You Hate Ann Coulter," "Home Grown Terrorist" and other slogans, many of the students said Ms. Coulter says what she says for the shock value.

"She spreads fear, confusion and hatred and that's the goal of a terrorist," said Dan Mocan of Lawrenceville.

"There's no reason to tell anyone how to live," said Alexandra Jefferds of South Oakland. "Everything she says is targeted toward groups I identify with, particularly the gay community. I know so many people in the gay community that are wonderful, and her comments only help to fuel hate."

When Ms. Coulter stepped to podium, she was treated to cheers from the more than 800 people in attendance.

Except for an occasional outburst and one young man being escorted out for what can be characterized as excessive heckling, the crowd was generally respectful and waited until Ms. Coulter completed her speech before asking any questions.

She opened her speech to cheers after mentioning how yesterday was the beginning of Holy Week for Christians and today is the beginning of Passover for the Jews but for liberals it's known as the first week of April.

Then, she talked about Ms. Clinton receiving $36 million in campaign funds.

"She got $10 million from herself and another $10 million from Bill Clinton's girlfriends," she said. "If you donate to Hillary's fund raising, you're eligible for something she calls pre-pardoning."

She also took former President Jimmy Carter to task for his handling of the Iranian crisis.

"What led to the Iranian crisis was Jimmy Carter allowed the shah of Iran to be toppled," she said. "That gave Islamic crazies their first real foothold in the Middle East. That worked out really well. We are still dealing with that today."

She concluded her speech by telling the audience that liberals have been attacking America for 50 years and "it's time to for us to hit back hard."

Afterward, Ms. Coulter fielded several questions from the audience. Among them was: Considering the controversy surrounding your recent use of an anti-gay epithet to describe John Edwards, would you use the "n-word" to describe people of racial minority?

Ms. Coulter responded that anyone who compares the "f-word" with the "n-word" is a racist, so thank you, Mr. Liberal.

Tainted Gluten Was Food Grade

Crooks and Liars » Tainted Gluten Was Food Grade

This is not good

Del Monte Foods has confirmed that the melamine-tainted wheat gluten used in several of its recalled pet food products was supplied as a "food grade" additive, raising the likelihood that contaminated wheat gluten might have entered the human food supply

"Yes, it is food grade," Del Monte spokesperson Melissa Murphy-Brown wrote in reply to an e-mail query. Del Monte issued a voluntary recall Saturday for several products under the Gravy Train, Jerky Treats, Pounce, Ol' Roy, Dollar General and Happy Trails brands.

Wheat gluten is sold in both "food grade" and "feed grade" varieties. Either may be used in pet food, but only "food grade" gluten may be used in the manufacture of products meant for human consumption. Published reports have thus far focused on tainted pet food, but if the gluten in question entered the human food supply through a major food products supplier and processor, it could potentially contaminate thousands of products and hundreds of millions of units nationwide.

The FDA announced today that it has traced the contaminated wheat gluten to a single processor, Xuzhou Anying Biological Technology of Peixian, China, but has not released the name of the U.S. distributor who supplied the product to Del Monte, Menu Foods, Nestle Purina, and Hills Nutritional. In all, more than 70 brands and over 60 million cans and pouches of dog and cat food are now part of this massive recall, as well as at least one brand of dry cat food.
