I’m not a Romney supporter but the attacks on him for making money are a bit disturbing. I watch the King of Bain attack ad and found that the majority of complaints were that Romney wasn’t willing to steal money from his investors to prop up failing businesses – in other words he wasn’t a leftist.
People who agree with this line of attack should watch this short video:
When people say Occupy Wall Street are lazy, hateful animals they are understating how vile these bored rich kids are. These scumbag communists – almost all of whom are rich kids who are being subsidized by their permissive parents – have stolen the house from a struggling single father and “given” it to a homeless family. The man was going through a foreclosure (but he still owns the house) and asked why if they wanted to fight the banks they didn’t help him. They told him told him he was too rich and to go fuck himself. Then they destroyed all his personal possessions he still had in the house.
That’s really sticking it to the 1%:
hey’re occupying his home.
Occupy Wall Street protesters announced with great fanfare last month that they moved a homeless family into a “foreclosed” Brooklyn home — even though they knew the house belonged to a struggling single father desperately trying to renegotiate his mortgage, The Post has learned.
“They’re trying to take a house and say the bank is robbing the people because the mortgage is too high — so contact the owner!” fumed Wise Ahadzi, 28, who owns the home at 702 Vermont St. in East New York.
Occupiers “reclaimed” the row house on Dec. 6 and ceremoniously put out the welcome mat for a homeless family.
But Bank of America, which has been in and out of foreclosure proceedings against Ahadzi since 2009, confirmed to The Post that he is still the rightful owner.
Meanwhile, the family that OWS claimed to be putting into the vacant house has not yet permanently moved in. And it turns out the family is not a random victim of the foreclosure crisis, but cast for the part, thanks to their connection to the OWS movement.
OWS last week said it has spent $9,500 breaking into the house and setting it up for the homeless Carrasquillo family. A photo of the smiling family covers a window, under the slogan, “A place to call home.”
The head of the family, Alfredo Carrasquillo, 28, is an organizer for VOCAL- NY, a group that works with OWS. His Facebook page shows him in a “99 Percent” T-shirt at an OWS protest in November.
The Post visited the Vermont Street home last week — six weeks after OWS announced that the Carrasquillos were moving in — and the family was nowhere to be found.
In fact, the only people occupying the house were occupiers themselves.
“They only stay here sometimes,” a protester named Charlie said of the Carrasquillos. “There’s not enough room for the kids.”
The occupier refused to say how many others were inside, but at least two more protesters could be seen at the house, along with mattresses on the floor, during The Post visit.
“We’re almost done with the basement,” he said of the renovations.
The real property owner is livid because he could be raising his two little girls, Imani, 3, and Kwazha, 10, in the two-story home instead of in a meager, two-bedroom rental in Brownsville while he tries to sort out his mortgage nightmare.
Police notified him in early December that the vigilante vagrants moved into his East New York digs, he said. He immediately ran over to the house to see for himself.
“Oh, don’t call the police!” an occupier begged him.
OWS leaders and Brooklyn Councilman Charles Barron, an OWS supporter, met with Ahadzi before the press conference to discuss the future of his property, he said. Ahadzi hoped that the group would help him regain his footing.
“Why can’t you fight for me?” he asked them.
“They told me I don’t qualify,” he said. “So my lawyer asked what the qualifications are. [They said] I have to be with an organization and they’ll deal with the bank and you have to be homeless.
“They said they couldn’t help me,” he added.
They did help themselves to his property however. Interesting how the people who benefit from the “largess” of these Marxists are friends of theirs and people they owe political favors to.They’re almost like real communists.
Is anyone surprised to see anti-American son of a bitch Charles Barron involved?
Anyway this is why I moved out of the hell hole of NYC and into the sweet embrace of a Castle Doctrine state like South Carolina. If OWS tried to pull that on me down here the only discussion we’d be having was where they wanted their galena pills.
This little scam is apparently going on all over the country and as blogger Ferfal points out, pattern on Latin American communist land grabs of recent years. There’s a house grab being set up by a Chicago Lutheran Minster named Tom Gaulke. So be prepared.
By the way, VOCAL NY is a hug-a-thug organization that seeks to build a political party out of criminals and drug addicts. They make plenty of money “organizing” so why is one of their organizers homeless?
Above is a picture via Theo Spark of thee kind of gunboats Texas is using to combat cartel pirate activity on borderland lakes. There are several photos so be sure to check them out.
But why does Texas need to deploy gunboats in U.S. territory? Because the obama adminstration (and frankly Bush before that) have ignored the deteriorating situation on the Mexico border and there is now basicly a war going on down there.
From GO San Angelo:
SAN ANGELO, Texas — The Texas Department of Public Safety soon will patrol border lakes with gun-mounted, high-speed power boats in response to drug-related violence along the U.S.-Mexico border.
“Mexican drug cartels have unlimited financial resources to procure high-powered, military-grade weapons,” Tom Vinger, assistant chief of public affairs with the DPS, said in an email.
“Cartel operatives have fired at law enforcement officers while they were attempting to interdict drug loads on the Rio Grande River. When our officers come under fire from these weapons, we want to afford them every opportunity to return home safely from each patrol mission.”
Vinger declined to be interviewed for this story and did not answer several questions submitted by email.
According to a Dec. 9 report on KXAN-TV in Austin, six gunboats will patrol Amistad and Falcon lakes. Vinger said the boats “will patrol all navigable portions of the Rio Grande River and the border lakes it supplies. There will be boats that are primarily assigned to patrol the lower portion of the Intracoastal Waterway of Texas, but will still be available to respond to incidents occurring on the Texas-Mexico border if needed.”
KXAN reported that the boats, costing $580,000 each, are 34 feet long and have armored hulls and three 300 horsepower outboard motors, four machine gun turrets and state-of-the-art night vision cameras.
The television station said 40 DPS officers will be assigned to the newly created Tactical Marine Unit.
So Texas needs a “tactical marine unit” but that border is secure?
This Heritage Foundation video is a response to the Hollywood hit piece coming out, but also makes a point about the universality of conservative, classical liberal and libertarian values. The left never understood the admiration the right has for someone like Sarah Palin, because they don’t understand the values she projects and the legacy she represents.
Before Red Alerts was closed down temporarily I blogged about the U.N. Peacekeepers from Nepal who spread cholera in Haiti by shitting in the Haitians drinking water. This by the way was not done maliciously, the peacekeepers the U.N. sent to earthquake ravaged Haiti were just barbarians who didn’t know any better.
Now a new report is claiming that this isn’t just any normal cholera – it’s a superbug that is more virulent, more easily transmittable and has infected half a million Haitians. Infected Haitians have been turning up all over the Americas including New York, Miami and Boston:
Compelling new scientific evidence suggests United Nations peacekeepers have carried a virulent strain of cholera — a super bug — into the Western Hemisphere for the first time.
The vicious form of cholera has already killed 7,000 people in Haiti, where it surfaced in a remote village in October 2010. Leading researchers from Harvard Medical School and elsewhere told ABC News that, despite UN denials, there is now a mountain of evidence suggesting the strain originated in Nepal, and was carried to Haiti by Nepalese soldiers who came to Haiti to serve as UN peacekeepers after the earthquake that ravaged the country on Jan. 12, 2010 — two years ago today. Haiti had never seen a case of cholera until the arrival of the peacekeepers, who allegedly failed to maintain sanitary conditions at their base.
“What scares me is that the strain from South Asia has been recognized as more virulent, more capable of causing severe disease, and more transmissible,” said John Mekalanos, who chairs the Department of Microbiology and Immunobiology at Harvard Medical School. “These strains are nasty. So far there has been no secondary outbreak. But Haiti now represents a foothold for a particularly dangerous variety of this deadly disease.”
More than 500,000 Haitians have been infected, and Mekalanos said a handful of victims who contracted cholera in Haiti have now turned up in Venezuela, the Dominican Republic, and in Boston, Miami and New York, but only in isolated cases.
The United Nations is of course denying any role in the spread of this deadly outbreak even as the evidence piles up. When disaster strikes you can always count on the United Nations to make things worse.
