A Single Image That Continues to Haunt

The night before the burial of her husband, Katherine Cathey refused to leave the coffin, asking to sleep next to his body for the last time. The Marines made a bed for her. [Todd Heisler/The Rocky Mountain News, via Associated Press]

A solemn reminder from Lily Burana of the sacrifices that are made in order to keep you and I safe, and free.

Memorial Day. The unofficial kickoff to summer. Barbecues sizzling. Lawn sprinklers hissing. Local marching bands tooting out Sousa. Red, white, and blue bunting hanging from the porch railings, and on TV, someone begins a recitation of Lt. Col. John McCrae’s classic poem: In Flanders field, the poppies blow/Between the crosses row on row …

In the run-up to every Memorial Day weekend, for the past several years, a certain photo takes top spot in those most circulated among my fellow military and veteran wives. On blogs, on social media sites, it is shared and “liked” over and over. Taken by the photographer Todd Heisler from his 2005 award-winning series for The Rocky Mountain News, “Jim Comes Home”  — which documents the return and burial of Second Lt. Jim Cathey of the Marines, who lost his life in Iraq — the photo shows his pregnant widow, Katherine, lying on an air mattress in front of his coffin. She’s staring at her laptop, listening to songs that remind her of Jim. Her expression is vacant, her grief almost palpable.

It is the one and only photo that makes me cry each time I see it. What brings the tears to my eyes is not just the bereaved young woman, but the Marine who stands behind her. In an earlier photo in the series, we see him building her a little nest of blankets on the air mattress. Sweet Lord, I cry just typing the words, the matter-of-fact tenderness is so overwhelming. So soldierly. But in this photo — the one that lives on and on online — he merely stands next to the coffin, watching over her.

It is impossible to be unmoved by the juxtaposition of the eternal stone-faced warrior and the disheveled modern military wife-turned-widow, him rigid in his dress uniform, her on the floor in her blanket nest, wearing glasses and a baggy T-shirt, him nearly concealed by shadow while the pale blue light from the computer screen illuminates her like God’s own grace.

I believe this photo has had such a long viral life not just because it is so honest but also because it is so modern. During a spouse’s deployment, your laptop is your battle buddy. Your sense of connection and emotional well-being is sustained via e-mail, Facebook, Skype and Instagram. It appears, per Lieutenant Cathey’s widow, that the same is true even in a time of loss.

This heartbreaking — and groundbreaking — photo showcases the intersection of technology and agony.

I’ll never forget trying to describe the photo to my friend Veronica, an Army wife. I was standing in her stately West Point living room, trying to detail what was so moving about the stalwart posture of the Marine, the listlessness of the grieving wife, my voice cracking, and before I was halfway through my description, tears started streaming down her face. It is testimonial to the image’s power that it even affects people who haven’t seen it.

Join the Virtual Boots on the Ground Memorial Day Parade

By Gary P Jackson

Paying Tribute to Our Veterans and Fallen Heroes: For nearly 70 years, Washington, DC was without a parade on our Armed Services’ most sacred day. In 2005, the AVC brought the tradition of a Memorial Day parade back to our nation’s capital. The National Memorial Day Parade attracts nearly 300,000 spectators with millions watching on TV around the nation. It’s a testament to America’s desire to recognize the service and sacrifice of our service members. The parade serves two vital civic purposes: It allows the general public to honor our service members as well as pay tribute to veterans of the American Revolution to the present. Active duty military troops, veterans, and reenactors showcase the sacrifice of all our veterans in an exciting procession of American history the whole family can enjoy.

Andrew Breitbart Saw in Ted Cruz the Future of the Conservative Movement

By Gary P Jackson

This is a wonderful read by Tony Lee:

On paper, Cruz seems like someone out of central casting, perfectly put together to represent conservatism’s future. His father fled oppression in Cuba for freedom in America. He grew up immersing himself in the works of Frederick Bastiat, F.A. Hayek, Ludwig von Mises, and Milton Friedman, earning scholarships by giving speeches about their ideas. He went to Princeton and Harvard law without losing the common touch. He racked up legal victories that helped defend the Second Amendment and America’s sovereignty against the World Court. 

But while Breitbart admired these things about Cruz, they were not why, after speaking with the conservative GOP Texas senate candidate (Texas’s primary is on Tuesday) at what would be his last Conservative Political Action Conference, Breitbart told close friends and associates that Cruz represented conservatism’s future. 

It was because Breitbart saw in Cruz, first and foremost, a fighter who was fierce, principled, uncompromising, and relentless. These were the characteristics Breitbart first looked for and those who were a part of the “Army of Davids” had in spades. 

Stephen K. Bannon, the filmmaker who was one of Breitbart’s closest friends and whose movies have captured the fierce and patriotic spirit of Jacksonian Tea Partiers, always remembered how effusively Andrew Breitbart “admired the fact that Ted Cruz was a fighter and came from a family of fighters.” Breitbart also knew, when he learned how Cruz had been “preaching the gospel of constitutional limited government since he was a teenager all across Texas,” that fighting for constitutional conservatism was in Cruz’s bones. He knew Cruz was the real deal and not a poseur. 

Cruz told Breitbart News how proud he was “to call Andrew a friend” and recounted the hours they spent at the last CPAC of Breitbart’s life.

One of my favorite pastimes is scheming to defeat leftists, so understandably I’ll always deeply appreciate the hours I spent with Andrew at CPAC this year engaging in what he did best,” Cruz told Breitbart News. “Andrew was fearless in speaking truth to power. He had the vision and mastery to use cutting-edge tools to share conversations with the world to help advance the cause of liberty.

Other conservative leaders have also seen what Breitbart saw in Cruz.  In fact, three of the fiercest conservatives are among his most enthusiastic supporters. 

Former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin, when endorsing Cruz, wrote, “Your conservative principles, passionate defense of our Constitution and our free market system come at a time when these cornerstones of our freedom and prosperity are under attack. Our shared goal isn’t just to change the majority in control of the Senate, but to assure principled conservatives like you are there to fight for us.

Talk radio host Mark Levin, when he endorsed Cruz in 2011, said he would “fight profligate spending,” “only appoint originalists to the court,” and, most importantly, “do it without prodding.” 

And Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), who has almost single-handedly willed the Senate to become more conservative, came on board early. His conservative brigade in the Senate — Mike Lee (R-Utah), Pat Toomey (R-Pa.), and Rand Paul (R-Ky.) — enthusiastically got on board too. 

Three particular things stand out in Cruz’s background that make conservatives feel comfortable that he is a conservative before a Republican. Cruz, as Texas’s Solicitor General, “stood up against 90 nations to guarantee the right for Texas and the United States to carry out justice for a brutal murderer and rapist, without being subject to the laws of the World Court” by representing “Texas before the U.S. Supreme Court in Medellin v. Texas, which upheld U.S. sovereignty and held that the World Court cannot bind the U.S. justice system and the President cannot order the state courts to obey the World Court.” 

He also, in the landmark Second Amendment case that overturned the unconstitutional ban on gun rights in Washington, D.C., led a coalition of 31 states in filing a brief. He also “sued the federal government, on behalf of Texas and four other States, to strike down portions of the Medicare Prescription Drug program as an unconstitutional intrusion in the sovereign authority of the States.”

These accomplishments are highly touted by his campaign and website — and rightfully so. To conservatives who were dismayed by domestic programs enacted by the Republican Congress — and George W. Bush — during the 2000s, Cruz directly took on Republicans and the Bush Administration

Most notable about Cruz’s Campaign, though, has been the supporters he has drawn. His fiercest supporters are those who would feel at home in Breitbart’s anti-establishment “Army of Davids.”

Sarah Palin: Memorial Day and Rolling Thunder

By Sarah Palin

Todd and I and our family would like to wish you all a happy Memorial Day weekend. We’d especially like to offer our best wishes to our friends in Rolling Thunder who will be taking part in their Ride for Freedom this weekend in D.C. as they do each year to honor our vets and specifically to bring awareness to POW/MIA issues. We were honored to join them last year.

We were both sad to learn that Preston “Jay” Fairlamb, Jr., one of the organizers of Rolling Thunder and someone who made us so welcome last year, tragically died in an accident last week. Jay was a Vietnam vet, a retired New Jersey State Trooper, and a great American who will be dearly missed.

Please keep his wife, his children, grandchildren and his innumerable friends in your prayers.

On this Memorial Day weekend, may God bless our brave men and women in uniform.

Memorial Day: Being Thankful that Such Men Lived

by Whitney Pitcher

Last weekend, on Armed Forces Day I visited a few of the war memorials and President Lincoln’s tomb at Oak Ridge cemetery here in Springfield. It is amazing the somberness, yet peacefulness, of the site. The memorials were constructed in remembrance of the many Illinoisans who gave their lives for our country in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. These large pieces of marble and concrete have the names of Illinois soldiers who died and included every branch of the military involved in these wars. The World War II memorial had a timeline of the entire war and a giant globe with markers noting every battle location. There were also quotes from various generals and military leaders etched into the marble of this memorial. My favorite is from General Patton and is depicted below:

I do think there is a definite respect we need to pay and a somber mood we need to exhibit on Memorial Day (and everyday) when we remember those who died for our freedoms. Freedom isn’t free, and it has been renewed at a heavy price throughout our nation’s history, but as the General said, we can be thankful that such men and women not only died for the principles of liberty, but they also lived for liberty and gave us the opportunity to do so as well. I see General Patton’s words as a challenge. Do we truly appreciate and live for the liberty that we have here in America? Are we truly thankful for the freedom of speech or religion we do have? While we see these liberties too often impinged upon, are we nevertheless utilizing those liberties to prevent that impingement from perpetuating? One of the beauties of the Constitution is that built-in self-preservation of those freedoms, if we take the opportunity to exercise our freedom of speech, religion, the press, suffrage, etc. Be the people that General Patton mentioned–the people that lived for freedom.

That freedom of religion is, to me the most precious, and one of those exercises of the freedom of religion is the weekly communion that I share with my brothers and sisters in Christ. The church I am a part of has a member of the congregation share a brief message before we break the bread and share the cup in remembrance of Christ’s death for our sins.  Usually on the Sunday before Memorial Day, whoever shares the message invokes Memorial Day. Although there is no true comparison between the Son of God coming down from heaven and taking on human form, living a perfect life, and dying for our salvation, there are those parallels in the sacrificial nature of Christ and those soldiers who died. The soldiers died for those precious earthly freedoms we have, but Christ died for an eternal freedom from sin in Him–that we would be forgiven of our sins and  given the opportunity to share eternity in heaven with Him. There is great joy as well in the fact that Christ lives. His power came not solely in His perfection that allowed Him to be our sacrifice, but in the power in the resurrection. He lives too! We can be thankful, just as Patton said about the sacrificial soldiers, not only that Christ died, but that He lives. It is His life that gives the truest hope. As it says in I Corinthians 15:19 in the Bible, ” If for only this life we have hope in Christ, we are to be pitied more than all men”. However, our hope in Christ is for eternity, and the freedoms we have in Him extend beyond this earthly life. That’s real hope.

I’m a proud “bitter clinger”, but there is nothing “bitter” about that faith in Christ. As Governor Palin has said (paraphrasing), “we cling to God, not because we are bitter, but because He is better”. There is much gratitude we owe to those soldiers who have lived,fought, and died for the principles of freedom, but there is an eternal thankfulness to Christ that He not only live and died for our salvation, but that He also lives today.

John Nolte: The Unbearable Ingratitude of Meghan McCain

By Gary P Jackson

Let’s face it, the only reason Meghan McCain is on TV [always leftist channels like MSNBC] and is invited to write for certain leftist websites, like The Daily Beast is because she’s one of those Republicans who hate Conservatives. She can always be counted on to spew her hatred toward Conservatives, on cue.

John Nolte over at Andrew Breitbart’s Big Government also notes that she’s not just hateful, but mighty ungrateful. It can be said Breitbart gave her one of her first forums, and yet today, she’s trashing him with her MSNBC buddies.

In the basement of his home the day after Barack Obama was sworn in as the 44th President of the United States, the late Andrew Breitbart launched his Big empire with Big Hollywood, and one of the first people he invited to join our merry little team as a contributor was Meghan McCain. I know this for a fact because I traded emails with Ms. McCain so she could join our live-blog of that year’s Academy Awards. — which she did. This reality doesn’t quite compute with her inference last night on MSNBC that hateful extremists like Andrew Breitbart are part of the reason she feels unwelcome in the Republican party. …

As she did last night, Ms. McCain can cry on MSNBC’s shoulders about being a martyr to moderate Republicanism all she wants, even as she ignores the fact that there are plenty of moderate Republicans secure in the fold — including the new leader of our party, Mitt Romney.

Ms. McCain’s problem isn’t her politics or her stance on same-sex marriage, her problem is that she’s not a very nice person.

More here.

And the Republican Party doesn’t understand why the base of the party can’t stand “moderates.” Moderates like Meghan McCain have no real core values. They certainly have no concept of loyalty or honor. In other words, they are nothing more than liberals in denial.

Here’s Andrew Breitbart talking about Meghan McCain.

Report: Domestic Terrorist Brett Kimberlin Had “Run-ins” With Senator Orrin Hatch

By Gary P Jackson

I talked at length about murdering domestic terrorist, and Obama regime employee Brett Kimberlin, on Friday. It turns out Kimberlin has a very long history of abusing the courts as a way to inflict terror on his targets.

Kerry Picket is reporting Kimberlin targeted Senator Orrin Hatch in 1999:

Senator Orrin Hatch, Utah Republican, knows very well how Mr. Kimberlin operates. Senator Hatch’s office sent me a statement on the story above:

Senator Hatch has had run ins with Brett Kimberlin before and they weren’t pleasant. So it’s certainly no surprise that Mr. Kimberlin has now taken to harassing and targeting conservative bloggers. Needless to say, efforts to silence and chill political speech are contrary to the values of our Constitution and First Amendment.

In 1999, Mr. Kimberlin sued Senator Hatch and a staffer for geting involved in Kimberlin’s parole case in 1997.

Read more here.

Here’s something for the authorities to ponder. Brett Kimberlin is a convicted terrorist, drug dealer, murderer, and so on. If he’s out on parole, exactly how are his acts of terrorism that are being committed as I write this, not grounds for permanent revocation of his parole?

To put it bluntly, why is the animal with a long history of terroristic behavior still allowed on the streets? Why aren’t our elected official;s demanding he be rounded up and sent back to prison?

We know he’s a tool of the democrat party, and funded by party elites, but have people become so afraid of the regime they will allow a rabid animal like Brett Kimberlin to have free reign?

George P. Bush: It’s very disappointing to see David Dewhurst resort to blatantly false attack ads against Ted Cruz

George Prescott Bush

By Gary P Jackson

David Dewhurst is lying about Ted Cruz yet again. It’s not enough for him to continue to run radio and TV lying about Ted Cruz’s ties to a Chinese company that supposedly stole proprietary information from an “American company” featuring the owner. Never mind the owner of this company helping Dewhurst lie about Cruz actually moved his “American company” to China 20 years ago, making Dewhurst’s claim Cruz is taking away American jobs absurd.

Now Dewhurst, the Establishment™ candidate, is falsely claiming Cruz is soft on illegal immigration, and even suggests he supports amnesty for illegals. Of course it’s Dewhurst who is the pro-amnesty, soft on illegals, squish.

As Lt Governor of Texas, Dewhurst, has supported sanctuary cities, was against e-verify, has said on recordit would not be practical to deport illegal immigrants,” is for in-state tuition for illegal immigrants, and hasn’t taken a clear position on a border fence.

In fact, Dewhurst worked behind the scenes blocking legislation that would have outlawed sanctuary cities in Texas.

The Cruz campaign immediately released a video challenging Dewhurst’s lies:

Cruz then held a press conference where he called Dewhurst’s ad “the act of a desperate man clinging to power.” He continued, “Dewhurst’s lies are getting more and more ridiculous.”

The campaign also released a statement from George P. Bush, grandson of President George H.W. Bush, and Nephew of President George W. Bush, that denounced Dewhurst’s attack ad: 

It’s very disappointing to see David Dewhurst resort to blatantly false attack ads charging that Ted Cruz supports amnesty. Ted has always categorically opposed amnesty. The only basis for Dewhurst’s fraudulent claim is that Ted serves on the advisory board of a Hispanic civic organization that seeks to empower Hispanics economically by promoting entrepreneurship.

When I first heard this false attack ad, I was offended not only as a Hispanic but as a Republican. We are a party of inclusion that welcomes the fastest growing demographic in our State that largely shares our conservative values of limited government, strengthening the family and supporting small business. This is the type of divisive racial politics used by President Obama and the Democrats. It has no place in the Republican party.

While Dewhurst is claiming Cruz is soft on illegals, the truth is, Ted Cruz argued Texas’ right to execute an illegal alien who murdered two teenage girls before the Supreme Court of the United States, and won. Cruz has successfully argued several cases before the Court, each time reaffirming Texas’ Liberty and Freedom.

Dewhurst is a lying weasel. He’s the typical slimy career politician who must be stopped. There’s a reason why Sarah Palin, Mark Levin, Rand Paul, and many many more Conservatives are endorsing Ted Cruz.

Make sure to Choose Cruz on election day.

Obama Regime Hires a Convicted Murdering Domestic Terrorist for PR Work and to Attack Opponents, W.T.F?

By Gary P Jackson

The Obama regime has in it’s employ a convicted domestic terrorist. A bomber. I know what you are thinking, but no, it’s not Obama’s best buddy Bill Ayers.

Looking at his record, Brett Kimberlin seems to be a new and improved version, and frankly, a lot more dangerous.

What you are about to read, besides a brief history of this dangerous killer, is the story of systematic harassment, including death threats, to anyone who has exposed him. We have people who have lost their jobs, because their employers were worried about having someone hunted by a convicted terrorist working for them. We have another prominent Conservative who has packed up his family and gone underground after receiving death threats.

There is a lot out there on this guy. His main job for the regime seems to be harassing bloggers with death threats and other actions. Before we get into that, let’s take a quick look at who this terrorist is.

The Blaze has an excellent history lesson on the guy. Here are some highlights:

Meet Soros-Funded Domestic Terrorist Brett Kimberlin Whose ‘Job’ Is Terrorizing Bloggers Into Silence

Drug dealer, alleged child molester, and convicted perjurer, forger and Indiana Speedway Bomber (who is also believed to have played a role in the assassination of a grandmother), Brett Kimberlin, spent 17 years in prison before his ultimate re-absorption into American society.

*He started a non-profit dubbed “Justice Through Music (JTM)” that has, since at least 2005, been funded by George Soros’ Tides Foundation and Barbara Streisand among other leftists

*Along with his associate, Kimberlin also started an organization called “Velvet Revolution” that supports the Occupy movement 

*JTM’s goal is to use music to foster “social justice” and fight Republican “voter fraud” (like the kind George Bush allegedly used to “steal” the Florida election)

*Any blogger — conservative and liberal alike — who has written the truth about Kimberlin has come under vicious attack by either Kimberlin or his minions, suffering death threats (veiled and unveiled), multiple lawsuits, loss of jobs and worse

*He has filed over 100 frivolous lawsuits against anything that isn’t nailed down and somehow is being allowed to continue unchecked 

*This story has never been reported on in the mainstream media

Be prepared to enter an alternate universe, bizarre beyond any stretch of what you thought possible. And then keep reading, because this may be one of the most important
exposés published on The Blaze to date. It will explain in frightening detail what it means to speak the truth at the expense of losing all you hold dear.

And will reveal how easy it has been for one convicted domestic terrorist — backed by George Soros and Barbara Streisand alike — to use the U.S. legal system, as well as less desirable channels, to silence those who have dared tell the story of one Brett Kimberlin, a.k.a. the “Speedway Bomber.”

How immutable are our First Amendment rights? Would they remain so even under the most dire conditions? There are about half a dozen bloggers who, at this very moment in time, are finding out just that, after having been subject to: death threats, blackmail, extortion, numerous frivolous lawsuits, cyber-attacks of email and social networking accounts and become the target of smear campaigns that have led to their firing until ultimately discovering that others who came before them, have turned up dead.
 
Move over Ayers, there’s a not-so-new domestic terrorist in town

What follows is the unbelievable yet non-fictional tale of a left-wing ex-con with an extensive rap-sheet who, since his release from prison, has led the crusade against Republican “voter fraud” while simultaneously making it his life’s mission to threaten, brutalize, shakedown, sue, slander and generally terrorize any writer — conservative and liberal alike — who dares speak plainly about his checkered past.

The post is lengthy, as there is much ground to cover where Kimberlin’s past is concerned, but the information is pertinent to understanding how and why he began brutalizing bloggers with whom he disagrees. Following this background, we will review the shocking accounts of two of his latest victims.

For reasons unknown, the far-left seems to have a penchant for throwing their full-fledged support — emotional, political and financial — behind domestic terrorists (see: Bill Ayers) and their latest protege is no exception. Also known as the “Speedway Bomber,” Kimberlin set an Indiana town ablaze with a series of coordinated bombings in 1978, ultimately resulting in one man’s suicide (this was proven in a subsequent court case) after his limbs were irreparably damaged in the explosion.

Kimberlin v. White, 7 F.3d 527 (6th Cir. 1993) relates what happened to the man during the six-day bombing spree.

There’s a whole lot more. Check it out.

Matthew Vadum at Front Page Magazine tells readers that besides George Soros and Barbara Streisand, Teresa Heinz Kerry, wife of 2004 presidential candidate [for the democrat party] John Kerry, is throwing money at this terrorist.

Brett Kimberlin and the hall of fame of leftist terrorists

Convicted cop killer and Black Panthers member Mumia abu Jamal, would-be GOP convention bombers David Guy McKay and Bradley Neil Crowder, ACORN founder and cyber-terrorism advocate Wade Rathke, Obamacare architect and convicted swindler Robert Creamer, Earth Day booster and murderer Ira Einhorn, imprisoned terrorist lawyer Lynne Stewart, Weather Underground leaders Jeff Jones, Bill Ayers, and Bernardine Dohrn, just to name a few.

Speedway Bomber” Brett Kimberlin isn’t famous enough yet to have a cult following on the Left but give the determined, energetic activist time. A few short years after his release from federal prison the radical leftist has been embraced by all the right people, winning grants from the George Soros-funded Tides Foundation and wealthy celebrities.

He’s earned the confidence of leftist luminaries such as Teresa Heinz Kerry and Barbra Streisand who have sent money to his activist group, the Justice Through Music Project. The seven-year-old Bethesda, Maryland-based 501c3 nonprofit entity buys into the radical environmentalist agenda, supports the goals of the Occupy Wall Street movement, and claims to have registered 100,000 people to vote.

Read more about this danger to society here.

Matthew Vadum was interviewed by Canada’s Ezra Levant about Kimberlin’s support from George Soros’ Tides Foundation a bunch of radical environmentalists and anti-energy troublemakers who are terrorizing Canada and trying to stop their domestic production of oil and natural gas.

As you know, Soros has already infiltrated the United States government and accomplishing his goal:

Vadum gives more background on the terrorist, and reports that well respected Conservative blogger Robert Stacy McCain, who wrote an exposé on Kimberlin, has taken his family and gone underground. The terrorist actually phoned McCain’s wife’s workplace. That would scare the hell out of anyone.

You can see the interview Terror in the Tides here.

A. W., who publishes the Allergic to Bull blog has his own story about being threatened by Kimberlin. It’s unbelievable, but must be read.

John Hawkins interviewed Stacy McCain here’s a taste of what is going on:

I don’t know what he said to my wife’s employer. This is privileged information that was not shared with me because of their policies. All I know is that basically that my presence in Maryland was resulting in a perceived danger to others and furthermore, that if I was to continue reporting this story I couldn’t do it from Maryland.

Because why? You thought it would put the family in danger or her work?

Well, the story is a little bit complicated and can be told in depth once the truck is loaded up and moved to Beverly. We still have to finish moving out of our house. My wife has to finish out her work agreement. The situation is delicate.

You’re not going back to your house over this?

I’m in an undisclosed location out of Maryland and it has to do with two or three different things.

But they’re all related to Brett Kimberlin, right?

Exactly…Brett Kimberlin knows where I live; it’s an implicit threat. You can look at Brett Kimberlin’s record as a convicted terrorist. He conspired to kill the prosecuting attorney and at least one key witness in the case against him. That’s according to the Indianapolis Star. You can look it up. You know these are facts that are unrefuted. When someone like that indicates that they know where you live, the threat is implicit. I’m not going to be there anymore. I mean we’re gone. We’re history. We’re out of there.

Read more of this shocking story here.

Patterico has his own story of death threats and other harassment.

You’re about to listen to one of the most bone-chilling pieces of audio you will ever hear. At least, it was to me when I first heard it.

It’s a phone call that could have gotten me killed.

In this post you will hear that audio clip. You will also read about a months-long campaign of harassment carried out by at least three individuals: Ron Brynaert, Neal Rauhauser, and Brett Kimberlin — much of it directed at critics of Brett Kimberlin. This harassment includes repeated references to critics’ family members, workplace complaints, publication of personal information such as home addresses and pictures of residences, bogus allegations of criminal activity, whisper campaigns, frivolous legal actions, and frivolous State Bar complaints.

You know the drill, click here for the complete story.

Before he went underground, Stacy McCain wrote a piece noting that Tides gave this murdering domestic terrorist, and Obama employee, $70,000. Barbara Streisand gave the killer $10,000, and Teressa Heinz Kerry gave him $20,000.

More notable are screen captures of tweets harassing fellow Conservative blogger Greg Howard, with various Obama supporters promising to have sex with his young children. This is seriously evil, and I warn you, quite graphic, but again, a must read.

BTW, you know who warned America about the terrorist? From October of last year.

There’s no way to sugar coat this. These are the same tactics used in Nazi Germany, just updated for the modern age. This is not some random nut either. This is an employee of Barack Obama. He is funded by the crème de la crème of the democrat party. He’s out there registering voters and pushing the regime’s agenda.

This man should have never been released from prison. He doesn’t belong in polite society. He’s a terrorist who is still terrifying American citizens. He’s doing this on behalf of the Obama regime.

This man is phoning in death threats, and his minions are harassing those who expose him, including threatening to rape their children in front of them!

I’ve stated in no uncertain terms that Barack Obama and his Attorney General, Eric Holder, should spend the rest of their lives in prison. They are already accessories to mass murder with their Fast and Furious program. Now this.

I know the feckless Republican Party doesn’t have the guts to have Obama removed from office, and imprisoned. They can’t even get their act together on Eric Holder, who is as guilty as they come.

The American people cannot stand by while this sort of domestic terrorism is allowed to continue unchecked. It’s like we elected Bill Ayers and the rest of the 60s radicals along with Obama.

The American people must demand Barack Obama be held accountable for his actions. Just beating him in November isn’t good enough. He and many members of the regime have committed serious crimes. Their actions have already led hundreds of murders in Mexico, and the murder of at least two federal agents, a capital crime. This is unacceptable.

Of course, we must get this animal, Brett Kimberlin, off the streets. He is a proven danger. A convicted terrorist.

Obama himself signed onto the Patriot Act, and has even said it’s OK to kill American citizens guilty of terrorism. [without due process] I’m not sure I’m for that, but I will say Brett Kimberlin is exactly the sort of terrorist who should already be in chains and on his way to sunny, GITMO, where he can finish out his days.

This Obama regime employee is conducting a direct assault on the first amendment. He is going to extreme measures to shut anyone up who dare dissent. These totalitarian tactics are part and parcel of the democrat party mindset.

Long gone are the days of the reasonable democrat. The party has been complete taken over by the most radical elements of society, and is only getting more radical and unhinged each and every day.

Several things must happen here. First, Brett Kimberlin must be arrested and taken off the streets. Anyone who has been a part of his terror activities must be arrested as accomplices. Get this animal and his cohorts off the streets for good.

Second, voters need to wake the hell up. It’s time to defeat Barack Obama and every democrat and democrat sympathizer up for re-election.

We need strong leaders who will put a stop to these Neo-Nazi, Alinsky on steroids, terror tactics. We need people who, even after Obama is soundly defeated in November, will be ready to bring charges against him.

Obama has committed real crimes, and real people are dead. This can’t stand. Obama has sanctioned Brett Kimberlin and his activities. He must be held accountable for this and well.

This is asking readers to take risks, but damn it, sometimes you must put some skin in the game. Readers need to raise hell with their Congressmen and Senators. Until Obama and Brett Kimberlin, as well as the rest are in custody, raise holy hell with everyone who can, in turn, raise hell on your behalf.

Obama and Brett Kimberlin are a direct threat to the American way of life. We’ve had domestic terrorists, who have bombed public buildings and murdered American citizens , before. See Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn. But we have NEVER had a domestic terrorist in the employ of the President of the United States.

This is the kind of crap that goes on in banana republics, not America.

Obama is a two-bit Chicago street thug who has brought that way of life to the American people as a whole. It’s unacceptable and cannot be tolerated any longer.

I got into an argument last night with a large group of Conservatives who are highly upset that Mitt Romney is the nominee, and went on and on telling me how Romney is “exactly like Obama.”

Knowing what Obama has been up to, that’s not even debatable. Mitt Romney would never send guns to Mexican drug lords, making himself an accessory to mass murder. Mitt Romney would never hire a murdering domestic terrorist and allow him to make numerous death threats to dissenters.

If you are one of those who are still pissing and moaning about the outcome of the GOP primaries, my advice to you is: Pull your head out of your ass!

Barack Obama and those he surrounds himself with are the most dangerous people in America. Making sure Obama is defeated in November is every American’s responsibility. To sit on your ass and not do EVERYTHING in your power to make sure this happens is hateful to me.

Obama must go, but more importantly, the Republican leadership needs to grow a pair, and make an example out of him and members of the regime who have committed such heinous crimes.

This cannot be allowed to stand.

This is a great new video from Bill Whittle. He’s explaining quite well why the European Union is falling apart. This is a warning for America to get it’s house in order.
