Hugh Hewitt Agrees...Racism Played Role in Katrina Reporting

Hugh Hewitt in a September 27th interview with Heath Allen, a local NBC News Anchor in New Orleans raises a question that I have been asking for weeks now… Did race or rather racism play a role in the MSM’s reporting of the events surrounding the Hurricane Katrina disaster?

When I posted Racist Media Reports on Katrina- Black People Loot, White People Find and Does Race Matter? Katrina Picture Controversy Raises Interesting Questions. Conservatives jumped down my throat for even suggesting that race played any roll in the media coverage.

Here’s the transcript from the show where Hugh raises the question. I found it at Radioblogger:

HH: Now let me ask you a tough question, though, Heath.

HA: Okay.

HH: Was the hysteria, were the lurid stories of violence, the urban myths, easier for media to swallow, because most of the people swept up in this were the urban underclass, and most of them were African-American? In other words, they were willing to believe the worst about those people in the mainstream media?

HA: I hope not. I hope not. There was so much misery that was here anyway. And it crossed economic lines, and it crossed racial lines. The storm really didn't make any differentiation there. And I wouldn't say that. You know, misery on the face of a white person, or misery on the face of a black person is misery, no matter what. And that's the picture that was being taken down here, and there was certainly enough of it to go around.

HH: But many lies and myths got spread that I don't think would have been spread about an upper-middle class, white group of people.

Like Hugh I believe that the hyped up (and often made up) stories and unsubstantiated tales of anarchy, murder and rape were reported as fact because the MSM found it easy to believe that low-income blacks are capable of such behavior. And sadly, far to many of us who know better than to trust the MSM believed what we saw because we too were willing to believe it could be true.

Man, do I feel vindicated! Thanks Hugh!

Bill Bennett Says it… Planned Parenthood Does it…Guess who’s in trouble over the killing of black babies.

Former Secretary of Education and national radio talk show host Bill Bennett is under fire for statements linking the abortion of black babies to reducing the crime rate. Black leaders like Congressman Jessie Jackson Jr. (Son of Jessie “My Baby Daddy” Jackson of Rainbow Push are Demanding Bennett’s head.

His specific comments were "But I do know that it's true that if you wanted to reduce crime, you could, if that were your sole purpose, you could abort every black baby in this country, and your crime rate would go down," and he did go on to say that any such idea "an impossible, ridiculous and morally reprehensible thing to do, but your crime rate would go down. So these far-out, these far-reaching, extensive extrapolations are, I think, tricky."

What I can’t figure out is why nobody is going after Planned Parenthood for doing, what Bennett merely commented on?

Consider the following comments from the founder of Planned Parenthood, Margaret Sanger:

• It [charity] encourages the healthier and more normal sections of the world to shoulder the burden of unthinking and indiscriminate fecundity of others; which brings with it, as I think the reader must agree, a dead weight of human waste. (From Margaret Sanger’s Early Writings 1922)
  
• Always to me any aroused group was a good group, and therefore I accepted an invitation to talk to the women's branch of the Ku Klux Klan..." (Margaret Sanger’s Autobiography)
  
• The minister’s work is also important and he should be trained, perhaps by the Federation as to our ideals and the goal that we hope to reach. We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members (November 1939 memorandum entitled "Suggestions for the Negro Project,”).

Now consider the following facts in regards to abortion in the black community:

• A black baby is now more than three times as likely to be murdered in the womb than a white baby.
• Since 1973, abortion has reduced the black population by over 25 percent.
• Twice as many African-Americans have died from abortion than have died fromAIDS, accidents, violent crimes, cancer, and heart disease combined.
• Every three days, more African-Americans are killed by abortion thanhave been killed by the Ku Klux Klan in its entire history.
• Planned Parenthood operates the nation's largest chain of abortion clinics andalmost 80 percent of its facilities are located in minority neighborhoods.
• About 13 percent of American women are black, but theysubmit to over 35 percent of the abortions.

Who should Jessie Jackson Jr. and the rest of those concerned about Black Genocide really be going after?

Dave Chapelle and the Gay KKK...They hate with compassion

If you recall, a few months ago I posted a couple of articles about incidents of discrimination against blacks in the homosexual community.

(Report Says SF Homosexual Community Discriminates Against Blacks and Report Says SF Homosexual Community Discriminates Against Blacks)

I commented at the time that I found it interesting that those who preach the "Tolerance Doctrine" would themselves participate in such overt racism.

Well this parody from the Dave Chapelle Show explains it all... They hate with compassion. (Click Pic For Video)

Now before you moonbats get all upset, let me say this. I do not believe that all homosexuals are racist. But the articles links above demonstrate that there are clearly those in the homosexual community who are.

Study shows Legal Immigration is Down, While Illegal Immigration is Up….Think it's a coincidence?

A recent study by the Pew Hispanic Center demonstrates the outcome of allowing a free flow of illegal immigration and providing added incentives not to obey our immigration laws. Potential immigrants are forgoing the legal process and just coming on in.

The Associated Press issued the following story:

WASHINGTON — Illegal immigrants are entering the country in increasing numbers despite tighter border security and now outnumber foreigners moving to the United States legally, the Pew Hispanic Center reported Tuesday.

"The U.S. economy was obviously a very important factor in determining these flows," said Roberto Suro, director of the center and a co-author of its immigration study.

Since 2001, the number of legal permanent residents entering the U.S. has declined from 578,000 to 455,000, while the number of illegal immigrants has increased from 549,000 to 562,000, the study found.

"We've seen a fairly steady growth in the number of undocumented immigrants living here, and this data shows very sizable numbers coming in," demographer Jeffrey Passel said. "We're clearly not stopping them at the border."

Declines in legal immigration "appear to reflect processing backlogs, security delays and other developments that followed the Sept. 11 attacks," the report says.

The report documents immigration levels from 1992 to 2004.

The Pew Hispanic Center is a nonpartisan research group supported by the Pew Charitable Trusts.

I would venture to say that as long as we are rewarding people for illegally coming to this country, legal immigrants feel penalized for bothering to follow the rules. It reminds me of a sad incident that happened with my kids a few years ago at an Easter egg hunt.

It was a huge event held annually in a public park. The kids were divided into age groups and instructed wait until the whistle blew to start searching for eggs. Organizers made it very clear as they shouted instructions over a bullhorn that running was not allowed.

Well I am sure you can guess what happened as soon as the whistle blew. Kids took off running like “bats outta hell.” Meanwhile parents made spectacles of themselves as they shouted and egged their kids on to run . But my kids, having been taught respect for authority and the importance of following the rules didn’t run. Guess how many eggs they found? Zero!

What lesson did society teach my kids that day? There is no benefit to following the rules. Especially, if there is no punishment for breaking them.

Why should someone go through a cumbersome legal process to come to this country when they can get the same reward by just walking across the boarder? And as long as we continue to offer free healthcare, welfare, food stamps and free education to those who enter this country illegally, why should prospective immigrants bother to obey the law? And we will only further exacerbate the problem by expanding benefits to include government funded student loans, low interest home loans and driver licenses to illegal immigrants.

All the above should be benefits afforded only to those who respect and honor our laws.
And the only way to do so is to obey them. All the blessings and opportunities this country has to offer should be available to those who follow the rules.

After the debacle at the park I took the kids home and we had our own Easter egg hunt. And to show them how proud I was that they followed the rules, instead of candy in the eggs…. My kids got cash!

I wanted them to know that it pays to do the right thing.

Do You Support Prop. 73?

As many of you know, I am working with a coalition of Pro-Family organizations that have come together to help pass Proposition 73 (The Parent’s Right to Know Initiative). The California Parent’s Rights Coalition is made up of the state’s leading advocates for traditional values and religious liberty. However, we still face a significant uphill battle.

The main stream media is going out of their way to keep the truth from getting out about this initiative and those who oppose it. Take for example this excerpt from a commentary by Thomas Elias published last week in the Ventura County Star:

Proposition 73 is a parental consent abortion restriction forcing pregnant girls younger than 18 to get written permission from a parent or a judge before undergoing an abortion. Proposition 75 would force public employee labor unions to seek permission from their members every year before using dues money for political purposes.

Anyone who thinks these are new issues just hasn't been paying attention.

Parental consent has never before gone directly before the voters. But indirectly, it has. That came in 1998, when conservatives viewed two of Republican Gov. Pete Wilson's state Supreme Court appointees as traitors for their 1997 decision overturning a state parental consent law passed in 1987.

The California Pro-Life Council targeted both Chief Justice Ronald George and his colleague Ming Chin for judicial oblivion when they came up for routine yes-or-no confirmation votes for new 12-year terms.

Just as they do this fall, Democrats fretted in 1998 about whether the campaign against the two justices would bring large numbers of pro-life voters to the polls, worrying at the time that this could reduce the gubernatorial chances of Gray Davis. Plainly, Davis had nothing to worry about in that vote, winning handily at the same time the two justices were easily reconfirmed.

That fizzled campaign against the justices, plus their decision a year earlier to toss the existing parental consent law on personal grounds provides reason to wonder whether Proposition 73 would stand for long even if it passes.

First of all, Prop. 73 does not require parental consent. It simply requires abortion providers notify the parents of minor children 48 hours prior to performing an abortion on their child. Secondly, unlike California’s parental consent law, this measure would amend the California Constitution, thus prohibiting out of control judges from overriding the will of the voters.

One thing Mr. Elias is right about is the potential fate of this initiative. If we, those who value parent’s rights, those who value the well being of our children, those of us who value life…If we do not step up step up to the plate and support this initiative, it will fail. And please understand, support is not a passive thing.

We truly support those people and causes to which we give of our resources. Our time, our talent and our treasury…These are our resources. And anyone can give. If you only can spare and hour or two of your time to make phone calls, knock on doors or stuff envelopes, that support means something. Even if you can only give $10, that is $10 more to help pass this initiative.

But if you have not given of your resources: your time, talent or treasury, then you are not a supporter of Prop 73. You’re a cheerleader… a well wisher… but not a supporter. Our daughters need all the supporters they can get. I hope we can count on your support.
