NAACP Wants Confederate Symbols Taken Off Georgia Property – Update: Want 190-Foot Long Carvings “Sand-Blasted” Off Mountain

Weasel Zippers

Via Associated Press:

The president of the Atlanta NAACP says the group wants Confederate symbols — including a giant carving at Stone Mountain Park — removed from all government-owned property and plans to pursue making those changes during the next legislative session.

Some who support flying the battle flag say the symbol represents Southern heritage and pride in Civil War-era leaders. However, Atlanta NAACP President Richard Rose and others have argued the flag is a divisive symbol and white supremacy is at the heart of the heritage the flag celebrates.

UPDATE: No, not The Onion.

… The Atlanta chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People called Monday for the removal of the 90- by 190-foot carving of three Confederate leaders, Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson, from the side of Stone Mountain, television station WSB reported Tuesday.

“Those guys need to go. They can be sand-blasted off, or somebody could carefully remove a slab of that and auction it off to the highest bidder,” NAACP Atlanta branch President Richard Rose told WSB.

You Won’t Believe How Many Vets Died Without Receiving VA Treatment

The Daily Sheeple

When the VA scandal broke last year, Americans were understandably upset. The VA had been maintaining a secret list of veterans waiting for treatment, to hide the fact that they had such a severe backlog. When we first learned of this, it was discovered that 40 Veterans had died while waiting to see a doctor at the VA hospital in Phoenix. But since that time, it’s become abundantly clear that the problem is much worse than that.

Recently leaked documents have found that over 800,000 veterans are on the VA’s backlog, which began when they started their electronic health care enrollment in 1998. Of those people, an astonishing 238,000 have died without receiving VA treatment. The documents come from VA program specialist and whistleblower Scott Davis. The VA claims that the list is so large because they can’t remove former patients from the list. They’ve either died or moved on to other forms of healthcare like Medicaid or private insurance, or in some cases never completed their applications. But Davis disagrees, and doesn’t think VA would record an incomplete application.

“VA wants you to believe, by virtue of people being able to get health care elsewhere, it’s not a big deal. But VA is turning away tens of thousands of veterans eligible for health care…VA is making it cumbersome, and then saying, ‘See? They didn’t want it anyway.’” The documents also show that out of 17.4 million vets that have died, the date of death for 2.35 million of them wasn’t properly recorded. So just how bad is the VA health care system?

Illegal Immigrants’ War on Americans

Family Security Matters

Let’s establish a metaphor right at the beginning between parasitical bagworms and parasitical Leftists/Liberals. Both species are destructive. The metaphor will have a bearing on the subject.

If you poke through a bagworm nest with a twig, you’ll find countless striped, furry worms or caterpillars eating away the bark and meat of a tree branch, thus killing the tree. If you poke through the mind of a Leftist/Liberal, you’ll find countless fuzzy worms ravenously eating away at the fabric of America, thus killing the country: gay marriage, Obamacare, the Clintons, Bernie Sanders, Marxist academics, jihadist imams, ambipolitical corporations, and so on. And some dead bagworms, like Ted Kennedy.

If you step on a bagworm, it will spurt pink goo on the sole of your shoe. If you examine the mind of a Leftist/Liberal, it will spurt pink goo all over you in revenge for exposing the malignity of his agenda.

Barack Obama is waging another war in his role as the Supreme Social Justice Warrior and Community Organizer-in-Chief, not in Libya, not in Iraq, not in Syria, but in and against America. He is doing this – aside from his destructive economic and political policies – with illegals who are swarming unchecked and at his invitation across the Mexican border by the thousands to “settle” in the U.S., not to become productive citizens, but to feed on the government welfare state teat – that is on the American taxpayer. The criminals among them have declared open season on principally white Americans.

He is also doing it by admitting thousands of “refugee” Muslims. He is settling the Mexicans (a blanket name for any Central or South American crossing into the U.S. from Mexico) and Muslims, particularly Somalian Muslims, in dozens of towns and cities across the country with the stated policy of changing their demographic compositions. And also, not coincidentally,  their political demographics, to help perpetuate the Democrats’ death grip on America.

Time to Call Obama and Kerry What They Are: Traitors

Free Republic

We have met the enemy and he is in the White House.

The last time a feeble leader of a fading nation came bearing “Peace in our time,” a pugnacious controversial right-winger retorted, “You were given the choice between war and dishonor. You chose dishonor, and you will have war.” That right-winger went on to lead the United Kingdom against Hitler.

The latest worthless agreement with a murderous dictatorship is being brandished by John Kerry, a man who instinctively seeks out dishonor the way a pig roots for truffles.

John Kerry betrayed his uniform and his nation so many times that it became his career. He illegally met with the representatives of the North Vietnamese enemy in Paris and then next year headed to Washington, D.C. where he blasted the American soldiers being murdered by his new friends as rapists and murderers “reminiscent of Genghis Khan.”

Even before being elected, Kerry was already spewing Communist propaganda in the Senate.
