In the latest example of how Britain’s indigenous culture is being supplanted by imported and alien cultures through the mass immigration invasion, British police have dropped the word “Christmas” from their annual poster campaign.

The shocking development has seen the British Transport Police drop the word “Christmas” from a nationwide poster campaign in order not to “upset people who do not buy into the festival.” This of course means the ever-growing numbers of Muslims who are the only other religious denomination present in Britain which seeks the extinction of all other religions.

The word “Christmas” appeared on the original draft of the poster, as it does every year. The campaign is designed to alert people to the extra number of transport police on duty over the Christmas and New Year period.

The original slogan read “Christmas presence,” which was a clever pun on the phrase “Christmas Presents,” referring to the fact that police would be on duty to protect the public.

The reference to Christmas was however determined by the police’s own “marketing department” to be offensive to “people from other faiths who disliked its Christian connotations.”

The politically-correct madmen then ordered the word “Christmas” dropped and replaced with the word “Holiday” so that it now reads “Holiday Presence” which is of course no pun at all and destroys the original creativity of the poster, never mind being offensive to the indigenous population who do indeed celebrate Christmas.

Howard Dean

Former Democratic Party chairman Howard Dean said on December 8 that “cooperation” between European socialists and the Democratic Party has “intensified significantly” over the last several years and involves “regular contact” at “Congress, Senate, party and foundation levels.” He added that “efforts have been remarkable from both sides.”

But at a “Global Progress Conference” in October, President Barack Obama’s pollster, Joel Benenson, acknowledged that socialized medicine in the U.S. faces a serious obstacle. He said that while Europeans are receptive to the expansion of government in their lives, in America there is an anti-government culture which prevents people from “expecting the State to solve their problems.”

“This explains why Obama will find it difficult to implement the social coverage plans such as a broader health service,” Benenson reportedly said.

The conference was held in Madrid, Spain under the patronage of Spain’s socialist Prime Minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, whose pro-homosexual and pro-abortion policies have led to street protests by thousands of supporters of traditional values. Zapatero is also under fire for a jobless rate of nearly 18 percent.

Dean’s comments came in a video address in which he joked that his failure to personally attend the Party of European Socialists (PES) convention, which was advertised as a “carbon neutral congress,” was actually a smart move because he avoided flying and contributing to global warming. “We’ve saved a lot of carbon,” Dean said.

There are some things that are irrebuttable facts.

Many of these are scientific expressions and equations which are universally accepted and cannot be disproved. Others relate to mathematics, but very few actually relate to nature. Therefore many myths exist regarding our very planet and the evolution of its inhabitants.

Before I go on I will point out that we only know what we have been told or have read. Accordingly people who are not well read know vastly less than those who are. That is of course if what has been read is fact or fiction. I have a theory that the declining use of the written word has diminished the power of reason for a large percentage of the population. Add to this that much of what is read is in the press media, which is mostly based on fiction, innuendo and downright lies, then we are in serious trouble. I have noticed lately that most of the articles here on the GA are intelligent, well reasoned and well researched. Compare this to the rhetoric elsewhere and you will get my point.

Now back to the point in question. We have all read the truly excellent Out of Africa. Reversing the Myth

I for one have never believed that we Europeans have any relationship with Africans whatsoever. In my mind and that of all free thinkers the whole concept is a myth.

To suggest that the Aboriginal Australians came out of Africa is also a myth. There are no similar people whatsoever anywhere else on the planet, not even remotely so, but when you offer this in an argument you are shouted down. Australia also has many animal types that do not occur anywhere else. Although there is some evidence that marsupials originated in China, they are just as likely to have migrated there from Australia as the opposite.

Model Americans arrested on Wednesday in Pakistan (left to right) Waqar Khan, Ramy Zamzam, Umer Farooq, Ahmed Abdullah Minni, and Aman Hassan Yemer.

In typical Liberal dumb-shit, pseudo-intellectual fashion, the New York Times ponders a question whose answer is glaringly obvious to anyone with a modicum of common sense:

“Could American Muslims in our wonderfully diverse society be potentially vulnerable to the appeals of Muslim extremists?”

While non-retarded persons reading this might be prone to laughing at the inane concept that Muslims in the US should be any different than those elsewhere (especially those of similar ethnic and sectarian origins); the idiot-savants at the Hysterical Gray Lady ponder this question – even today apparently – while American Muslims continue to defy statistical probabilities in their engagement with Islamic extremism (but please, let’s refrain from allowing overwhelming facts to lead us to any conclusions).

News Analysis – New Incidents Test Immunity to Terrorism on U.S. Soil – NYTimes.com.

In an effort to assist the thinking-impaired scribblers at the Times in overcoming their inability to apply concepts like “logic” or “statistics” I’ll take a moment to provide an executive summary, if you will, of the situation:

Importing a small army of third-worlders who embrace a religion that is fundamentally hostile to the dominant religion of the United States; refraining from forcing these urchins from assimilating to the Nation’s culture (would that this were even possible – or that America’s “culture” were something still definable and real); and then engaging in what can reasonably be described as all-out warfare against large elements of their religion in naked service of a THIRD, mutually-hostile religious group is not only a poor strategy for improving our multi-cultural paradise, but is probably guaranteed to produce precisely the results being observed today.

Tragically, laying it all out in a rather brief paragraph as above is probably going to be completely wasted on the Times scribblers, whose inability to draw glaringly obvious conclusions is only matched by their ability to write lengthy and pious articles which make their mental handicaps glaringly obvious (I’m sensing some irony here).

Setting criticism of the Times aside (something I do hesitantly, since it’s such a pleasant pastime); the uncanny resemblance of this motley band of renegades to the TSA agents one regularly encounters attending to our “security” in our nations’ airports is not really a joke. It’s one of the great ironies of our time (we get to enjoy so many ironies in our time – it’s one of the benefits of living in this degenerate age) that people like me (a descendant of a veteran of the Continental Army) are subjected to search and questioning by turbaned and towel-headed third-worlders who are probably orders of magnitude more likely to be a security risk to the country than the people they are scrutinizing.

I am usually skeptical about conspiracy theories, but American education’s sorrowful state has increasingly pushed me in that direction. Some background: I’ve analyzed K-12 schooling for years and observed an odd pattern: We increasingly spend billions to improve it (with much of the increase directed toward uplifting blacks and Hispanics), but progress is miniscule. Setting aside sheer stupidity as an explanation, this blatant wastefulness is a prime candidate for a nefarious “dark forces” account. But more importantly, if this is indeed something other than stupidity (or the Illuminati, Freemasons, the Tri-Lateral Commission, and the like)…then could it be a “whodunit”?

My first inclination was to round up the usual suspects: liberals. After all, all the outward signs of the “crime” point to this familiar culprit. There is the usual hasty fiscal extravagance, a muddle-brained potpourri of unreachable aims, the reflexive expansion of state power, and a commitment to “progress,” absent boundaries. More telling, there is the signature dependency-for-life outcome where youngsters migrate from one government program to the next. But would this circumstantial evidence warrant a grand jury indictment, let alone a conviction? Harder evidence was required: if not a smoking gun, then at least a theory of the crime (to use some prosecutorial lingo).

A dot-connecting “eureka” moment occurred when I read a November 29, 2009 New York Times editorial titled “Over-Punishment in Schools.” In an instant, I now possessed a valuable clue — an Exhibit A — to offer the jury to demonstrate how liberals are intentionally destroying American education so as to “help” minorities.

The editorial claimed that increased school policing (as opposed to informal intervention by principals or guidance counselors who consult parents) is disproportionally hindering the education of blacks and Hispanics. To wit, “[c]hildren who are singled out for arrest and suspension are at greater risk of dropping out and becoming permanently entangled with the criminal justice system. It is especially troublesome that these children tend to be disproportionately black and Hispanic, and have emotional problems or learning disabilities.” The editorial then praised a New York City proposal ensuring greater accountability and transparency in school discipline while making it easier for parents, students, and teachers to lodge complaints against school security officers.

By David Morris — The Lord Chief Justice ordered an investigation into political comments by High Court judge, Ian Trigger for his attack on Britain’s immigration system. What is Justice Trigger’s crime? He said that “hundreds and hundreds of thousands” of illegal immigrants were abusing the benefits system.

Justice Trigger made the comment as he sentenced a drug dealer to jail. One might have thought that this perfectly sensible passing remark would be supported by any reasonable person, but to the rest of the judiciary who encourage the asylum swindle, remarks such as these are regarded as “inflammatory” and need to be suppressed.

Judges routinely make political decisions not just political statements. This is why the establishment is called an “Ideological Caste.” It is united by central ideas like anti-white racism, internationalism and abstract beliefs like social justice and progress where prejudice and discrimination are transcended.

Their fantasy is inherently flawed because these qualities are ineluctably part of human nature; far from transcending prejudice and discrimination, they have changed the objects of their prejudice and discrimination from outsiders to their own people.

The attack on our people and way of life by the judiciary has two main planks: promoting Muslim extremism and undermining our way of life through legal means.

LINCOLN — It was billed as the “Women in Physics” conference at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. The goal of organizers was to allow women interested in physics to interact with one another.

But about one-third of the 80 undergraduate students who signed up were men, said Axel Anders, a UNL physics professor.

The conference is an example of how university officials are trying to boost campus diversity while still abiding by a constitutional amendment that bars preferential treatment based on race, gender or ethnicity.

Initiative 424, often called the “anti-affirmative action” amendment, applies to public higher education facilities and other public entities in Nebraska. University officials were among those who opposed its passage last year.

The ‘‘Women in Physics” event, held this fall, was in keeping with Initiative 424, a top UNL official said.

“As a university, we’re supposed to talk about issues,” said Susan Poser, chief of staff to Chancellor Harvey Perlman. “What 424 does is make very clear that we still can. But we can’t be exclusive about who can come participate.”

A proponent of the amendment agreed that such events are permissible, as long as they’re open to everyone, but said he would prefer that UNL stop labeling activities by gender or race.

“If it’s open to both sexes, they’re home free, there’s no problem,” said Marc Schniederjans, a UNL management professor who served as treasurer of the Nebraska Civil Rights Initiative, the group that promoted Initiative 424.

Tea Party is a very informative, beautifully crafted, and often inspirational and funny documentary about a growing right-wing political movement that now enjoys more public approval than Barack Obama and the Democratic Party.

Tea Party tells the overall story of the Tea Party movement, but it is not just a bloodless recitation of facts. It also seeks to build a personal relationship between its audience and the Tea Party movement by focusing on particular activists, most of whom seem to be from the Atlanta area, where the director and producers are also located.

According to the film, the first stirrings of the Tea Party movement were near the end of the Bush administration in the waves of right-wing discontent with the massive bailouts of banks and other large, powerful, well-connected companies that were deemed “too big to fail.”

All of these companies were fierce advocates of private enterprise when they were making profits. But when they were losing money, they were only too eager adopt a kind of negative socialism in which the public only shares the losses, never the profits.

The bailouts just kept getting bigger after the election of Barack Obama, and with the signing of the profligate and corrupt “stimulus” bill on February 17, 2009, protests broke out around the nation.

The first specifically “Tea Party” protests took place on February 27, 2009. Almost 30,000 people participated in 50 events all over the country. These numbers are particularly impressive, given that the events were organized in only five days.

U.S. Senator Robert Menendez

A “Committee to Recall U.S. Senator Robert Menendez,” sponsored by the Sussex County Tea Party has announced plans to launch an effort to recall Senator Robert Menendez from his position in office. Helping to lead the charge is New Jersey Tea Parties United, the state’s grass-roots coalition of county and regional Tea Party groups representing several thousand members in support of fiscal responsibility, individual liberty and limited government. The Committee filed a formal Notice of Intention to Recall with the Secretary of State’s office on September 25, 2009. While the office of the Secretary of State acknowledged receipt of the Committee’s Notice of Intention to Recall in a letter dated October 5, 2009, it has since provided no further communication. NJ state law requires that administrators respond either with an approval or with a notice of non-compliance stating the reasons within three business days of receiving the Notice, which was October 4, 2009. Since no response had been received, on November 25, 2009, the Committee filed a civil complaint in the Essex County Superior Court of New Jersey against Nina Mitchell Wells, Secretary of State and Robert F. Giles, Director of the Division of Elections, demanding that the defendants be ordered to immediately and forthwith comply with state law by issuing a response to the Committee’s Notice of Intention. To date, the Secretary of State has ignored the Notice and the Complaint in violation of state law and the Committee is awaiting a decision from the court. For up to date information, go to: njrecallnow.blogspot.com, http://www.defendingamericanfreedom.com/, or http://www.njteapartiesunited.com/.

Once the notice is approved by the state or by court Order, the Committee to Recall along with NJ Tea Parties United will spearhead a large coordinated petition drive to collect signatures in support of a special recall election. NJ state law requires a minimum number of signatures equivalent to at least 25% of the prior general election’s registered voters in order to grant a special recall election.
