Robert F. Kennedy Jr. vs. Steve King: Another liberal apocalyptic lie collides with factual reality.

As we all know, the regressive socialists of the American left have few rhetorical tricks and they practice them daily. The most prominent and prolific such trick is the use of crazy apocalyptic claims to cow a terrified public into grasping at the straw of radical social, political and economic regressive socialism as the only alternative to global or, at least, national catastrophe. Another day another finds another prominent Democrat caught in another outright lie.

But, before we delve deeper into the family Suidae, we’d like to extend major thanks to the folks over at
Constitution Daily for republishing Congressman Steve King’s interesting dialogue with the radical environmentalist Robert Kennedy Jr. If you have not yet seen the video exchange between Congressmen King and lunatic namesake of the most vicious, partisan and criminal Attorney General to ever hold the public trust, please take a couple of minutes and enjoy the exchange.



Now Congressman King’s slap down is fun, but everyone already knows we cheer lead every time Congressman King tackles a regressive socialist shibboleth. Since Constitution Daily has already earned the spirit stick on this one we thought we’d fact check Kennedy’s objectively disprovable statements.

We know the reader thinks that we are going to challenge the rather interesting argument that hog farmers are a greater risk to the United States than is Al Qaeda, but that assumption is wrong. However insane one may believe Kennedy’s national security argument to be, it is, after all, an expression of opinion. Nope, we are focusing on Kennedy’s assertions that North Carolina and Maryland have laws that both prevent criticizing factory hog farms and from even discovering the existence of factory farms.

RFKJ apparently has inherited his familial misunderstanding of the more objective aspects of jurisprudential reality. RFKJ has, however, put a new twist on an old Kennedy story. In the past, notwithstanding Ivy League educations, Kennedy criminals didn’t think certain laws existed. For example, Uncle Teddy’s didn’t realize the unlawful nature of vehicular homicide and lying to the police; or, brother Mike didn’t know that statutory rape was illegal in pretty much every state; or cousin Willy didn’t know you couldn’t just rape ‘em when women exercised the right to choose to keep the panties on when a Kennedy says stand and deliver, or cousin Mike Skakal did not quite realize that even Kennedys cannot actually kill women, or actually 15 year old girls who refuse a Kennedy sexual advance.

No, RFKJ is actually fabricating the existence of state laws that do not exist. We took a good hard Westlaw look at North Carolina and Maryland tonight. We couldn’t find anything in the statutes or regulations of either state that either prohibits criticism of factory farms-probably because such law is facially and conceptually violative of First Amendment prohibitions on speech restraint-or would prohibit discovering the existence of factory farms-probably because factory hog farms are rather obvious to anyone in a county in which such a farm is located. By raving such a preposterous lie into the public discourse Kennedy certainly earns the title “Big Boar of Balderdash”.

Democrat hysteria is no longer limited to the outrageous distortion of the climate debate but now permeates every aspect of their “change” agenda. So, another day, another Democrat big lie.

Oink!

Damascus Nancy Pelosi: Dumb, Dishonest or Both?

What better a topic for our return to active blogging than our old foil Damascus Nancy Pelosi? It isn’t often that a public official of any kind engages in the kind of amazing dishonesty that Pelosi displayed today. Take a minute and review the following video.



Yes, that’s right. As public support for the ludicrous, regressive socialist budget “stimulus” package is collapsing, the socialist rhetoric supporting the “package” is rising to unprecedented levels.

Pelosi’s claim that the United States will lose 500 million jobs every month seems to be logically incompatible with the
size of the labor force, which contains only about 235 million people. The entire population of the United States is only 304 million.

Perhaps Damascus Nancy thinks that everyone in the United States is as divorced from factual reality as is she and the regressive socialists that support her. Fortunately, there are some of us left that were educated before regressive socialism became the dominant educational paradigm.

So, this return to action post is for those of you who remember that facts are more than mere inconvenient annoyances.
