Oh, Who's Got Anger Management Problems Now, Dude?

Howdy:
So, here I am--again--back to um, write about stuff. Yeah, it's pretty surprising. My goal, for the moment, is to try and do a weekly post, hopefully.
Therefore, here I be! (Yeah, I'm pretty good at grammar.)

Have you heard about that loopedy-brained teacher from Oregon? (Yes, I made up that word)

The Tea Partiers are taking the high road. Just because Oregon middle school teacher Jason Levin has publicly denounced them as a bunch of "racists, homophobes and morons," they say that's no reason for him to lose his job.


All Levin really needs, they say, is some sensitivity training and some anger management therapy.


Levin, who declared his mission to "dismantle and demolish" the Tea Party on his "Crash the Tea Party" website, was placed on administrative leave last week while a state education board and his school district investigate whether the technology teacher promoted identity theft against Tea Party activists and misused school property.

But the Oregon Tea Party seems to be sipping chamomile. It doesn't want his neck -- just an apology from Levin and the Beaverton School District.


"We don't want to see Jason Levin fired, we want to see him helped," said Oregon Tea Party founder Geoff Ludt. "We want to reach out to him and we want to use his actions to create a teachable moment."


Levin, a media lab teacher at Conestoga Middle School, was placed on leave last week pending the conclusion of an investigation by the Beaverton School District into whether he used school hours or computers to work on his anti-Tea Party website, and if his political activity was appropriate behavior for a teacher of 6th, 7th and 8th grade students.


He is also being investigated by his state's teachers licensing agency, which was inundated with complaints after his incendiary statements became front page news.


In recent weeks, Levin announced his intention to embarrass Tea Partiers by attending their rallies dressed as Adolf Hitler, carrying signs bearing racist, sexist and anti-gay epithets and acting as offensively as possible -- anything, he said, short of throwing punches.


In an interview with Talking Points Memo, Levin said, "Our goal is that whenever a Tea Partier says 'Barack Obama was not born in America,' we're going be right there next to them saying, 'Yeah, in fact he wasn't born on Earth! He's an alien!'"


And in a now deleted post on website, Levin called on his supporters to collect the Social Security numbers -- among other personal identifying information -- about as many Tea Party supporters as possible at the numerous rallies that took place last Thursday.


"The more data we can mine from the Tea Partiers, the more mayhem we can cause with it!!!!" he wrote.


But the Oregon Tea Party says the teacher's actions are cause for a "teachable moment," not a trip to the unemployment line.


Ludt said his group sent out a press release to both the state agency and school district -- the same school district Ludt attended as a child -- on Monday in which they listed their demands.


The group is calling on the Beaverton School District to:


-- Apologize for inadequately supervising their teacher


-- Issue a written pledge to thoroughly investigate whether Levin encouraged his students to repeat overtly racist statements


-- Send a letter to all staff reminding them of district policy prohibiting teacher engagement in political activity on school time or using school resources


Despite being called “that loose affiliation of racists, homophobes, and morons” among a litany of other offensive names, the Oregon Tea Party says that as long as Levin successfully undergoes anger management and sensitivity classes, they see no reason why he shouldn't be allowed to teach.


"Levin sees us as enemies. We see him as a fellow human being who is obviously very angry and troubled. Political dialogue will never advance if we are unable to treat each other decently as human beings," Ludt said.


"Folks are out there are essentially rooting for the football team -- they're more interested in the games and not really looking at the issues. What we're trying to do is focus on the issues and the best way we can see to do that is to rise above the games.”

As for Levin's website, it has crashed and burned. The home page that once invited readers to help him demolish the Tea Party at all costs now simply reads: "Want to Show your support for Jason Levin? BUY A TEA-SHIRT." (source)

Hm, well, I have to say I'm not surprised.
Though, what throws me is why these libs (and Progressives) will scream homophobe, racist, hatemonger, etc. when they're the homophobes, racists, and hatemongers? Hypocrites, much?
Sorry, Levin your argument isn't very well supported; it sounds like a bunch of "insults" (that have, in my mind, been so over used that they've lost the insult that used to be behind them) strung together but there's nothing behind them. Last Thursday, I got to go to my first Tea Party. It was nothing like what he said! Nobody (except the fake people who showed up to make us look bad) were angry, in the least bit! Everybody was EXCITED, but under control. Why? Because we're just normal folks who are miffed at the how gigantic the government's become.
The only thing that upset me that day (besides how Vampire Diaries ended. Yeah, I guess I forgot to mention I am in love with that show. ;D) was the news' coverage of the day. One of the few people they interviewed was one who had a sign with "I Hated Obama Before It Was Cool" scribbled out in marker on it.
Seriously? (That's for the news, not the dude. 'Cuz, man, you have a LOT more guts than I do.)
Anywho...
I think Levin and the people who back him could learn from the Tea Party. They were gracious and very rational about the whole thing. Had this been reversed--this is just me musing here--I bet they would have fired right back with some smart-aleck response, or maybe some a little more violent. Ya know, I just realized something, how come this wasn't covered on the major news stations? Oh, that's right, this might make them look bad. They are so superficial...just like Miley Cyrus.
Oh, speaking of that girl, I need to write another post...
Major, major thumbs up to the Tea Party and um, an obviously thumbs down to Levin. Have fun with that anger management...
I think now I'm beginning to see why my parents aren't exactly fans of the public school system. haha, I totally get it. A bunch of libs..indoctrinating  munchkins! Haha, I really get it. Huh, no wonder we elected Obama in...that's a no-brainer

Palin, Love, and Crowder...

Why has fame gone to celebs heads?
Have you heard about the U2 concert?


Berlin celebrated the 20th anniversary of the fall of its notorious wall last night with an emotionally tone-deaf decision to erect another one around a U2 pop concert dedicated to freedom.



True, there were no minefields or watchtowers, but the new temporary wall erected before the performance certainly sent the wrong signals.


Only 10,000 fans in possession of previously allocated free tickets were allowed to pass through the checkpoints — yes, checkpoints — to listen to the Irish band.


“It’s completely ridiculous that they are blocking the view,” said Louis-Pierre Boily, 23, a Canadian who failed to get tickets.


U2, in Berlin for the MTV European Music Awards, agreed to play in front of the Brandenburg Gate as part of the Wall festivities which culminate on November 9 — the day the East German regime allowed its citizens to pour across the frontier.


On Monday Hillary Clinton, the US Secretary of State, President Sarkozy of France, President Medvedev of Russia and Gordon Brown will troop to the gate to mark the historic turning point.


By that time, U2 will have moved on and the background music will be provided by Bon Jovi.


The U2 event was seen by Germany as a deeply significant start to the festivities. The band’s poignant lyrics — I have run, I have crawled, I have scaled these city walls — were seen as full of political significance, speaking directly to the East-West German divide.

It is enough for a band to mention the word wall or freedom for it to be taken up by hundreds of thousands of German fans. The Germans take this so much to heart that even David Hasselhoff, the crooning star of Knight Rider and Baywatch, is still venerated for his song Looking for Freedom.


It was thus a bit of a blow to the zeitgeist when the 2m wall — no more than a metal safety barrier covered with tarpaulin — was run up. Fans of U2 who had once chanted “We are the people” in anti-regime demonstrations, said that they were being treated like second-class citizens.


“It is a big event,” said Frank Henkel, the parliamentary head in Berlin of the Christian Democrats. “It would be great if the organisers could avoid barriers of any kind.”


The climax of the Berlin Wall celebration will involve setting up over 1,000 Spiro foam dominoes around the German parliament building, the Reichstag.


They will trace the Berlin Wall through part of the centre of the city. At a signal from the Chancellor, Angela Merkel, they will be toppled. The organisers have promised the biggest firework display of recent times. source


Ay, yi, yi! What is wrong with these people? Are they really so special they have to put up a wall? No Berlin Wall, there baby...


One of my top least favorite people is Bono. Number one reason? He "dodged a hug" from President Bush. Obama even complimented him on it. Is he so stuck up, so special, and so opinionated he cannot even hug a Republican? Which I might add, a loose representation of Republican values.

Anyways, like I was saying, I don't really care for the group, as I do not like their music, (it's just not my style) and I don't like their treatment of people. I'm sorry but I don't enjoy listening to celebs spew their liberal opinions on other people. Excuse me for not enjoying that...is it just me? I hope not!

Palin + Beck= Stalin?! Oh, Give Me a Break...

Happy November, my fellow un-ding-dongish people!

So, tonight (or whatever time of day you're reading this) I'm a-gonna be talking about The New York Times' article on Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin.

Those people actually had the nerve to compare them to Stalin?! Why aren't they being attacked, and called racist?! If we dare to compare (ha, I'm such a poet) Obama to HItler, it's all, "You're a racist hatemonger!" And they do this and they just blow raspberries in our faces like everyone is 5 years old again. "Look at what I can get away with!" It's seriously like they're being the disobedient child, and we're the good child who gets blamed for everything while they're the ones making trouble. How can that even work? I mean, excuse me for not agreeing with Obama (because his views and twisted and misguided). But I'm not really in the mood to be called a racist, hatemonger, or whatever else gets hurled this way.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't enjoy seeing reporters bowing down at his feet chanting, "Obama! Obama!" cuz everytime they do, I start "mmm-ing." just for the fun of it.
Fox News, 1# I respect them, is they are "fair and balanced," something CNN and MSNBC cannot seem to grasp how to do.
I seriously am so tired of hearing Gibbs, Emanuel, Dunn, etc. avoiding the questions about why they're attacking Fox (besides the fact that it's "not a real news source") and talking about Mother Theresa and Mao Se Tung.

Anyways, I'm getting off topic again.
Bottom line here, Beck and Palin are no where near as manic as Stalin. He killed millions of people. Now, look around, who has Beck or Palin killed? The feminists like to attack Palin cuz she wouldn't kill her baby. (Abortion is murder, ladies, which ever way you look at it. You're tunnel vision is quite problematic)
So, why aren't they getting attacked? Well, you have the Kennedy's and Obama's (and other libs) who are all chanting abortion from the sidelines cheering it on.
'scuse me, don't you have kids? Would you have killed your children? Would you have killed the innocent little warm face that as it took its first breath in this new world brought you years of memories? Does the fact that it's a human mean nothing to you? Apparently, the Kennedy's have no problem with murder, Ted Kennedy was a show of true colors, wouldn't you agree?

I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, please, but does anyone realize that no one has said anything 'bout this story? I only found this out from my parents. I'm sure if someone called Anita Dunn or one of the Kennedy's or Heaven forbid, one of the Obama's a sadistic, masochistic leader, they would be like, attacked and maybe thrown in the dungeon...jk, I wouldn't expect them to that...or should I?

Bottom line, people enjoy targeting other people without looking at the people from their own parties. Do the libs even give half a wit about the crazies Obama's put into office? Or are they to busy pointing fingers at the GOP? (which I might add, I don't always agree with meself. There's times where I wanna start my own party. The Party of Conservative Patriots...or The Party of Cool People in Peacoats...though that could require everyone to buy a peacoat, they might objec to that...)

Nice rant, huh? :)

Sad news for Steven Crowder fans, no article this week! Aah! Which probably means no vid..darn! Thursday is Crowder Day for moi. Sad, yes, but true. here's the link to his twitter page
Though I have to admit, I'm proud of him for going overseas...that's more than Obama's doing...

Luv, Palin, and Crowder..
