Losing Our Freedom: Part 3 Fred Karger and the Bully Pulpit for Gay Marriage

 

 

 

Fred S. Karger (born January 31, 1950) is an American political consultant, gay rights activist and watchdog, former actor, and former candidate for the Republican nomination for the 2012 US Presidential election. Although he has not held elected or public office, Karger has worked on nine presidential campaigns and served as a senior consultant to the campaigns of Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush and Gerald Ford.

His running for the Republican nomination for president made him the first openly gay presidential candidate from a major political party in American history.

In 2006 Karger founded Save the Boom!!! a grassroots campaign to save the oldest gay bar in the Western United States, the landmark Boom Boom Room and Coast Inn in Laguna Beach, California. This got Fred active in LGBTQ politics, and was the natural precursor to his starting Californians Against Hate - now Rights Equal Rights

Karger sent out a press release Monday that said after hanging up his career in politics, he’s looking to get into… punditry. “I think there is a need for a moderate and very bipartisan Republican voice in the discussions taking place on news shows today,” he said in the release (his emphasis).

Why should you even care about this?  Because Fred Karger has a bigger agenda. 

He states:

“On one side, social conservatives are clamoring to maintain power amid a cultural climate which increasingly counters their views. On another side, libertarians are making strides in blending social liberalism with virtually unregulated free market capitalism. On yet another side, traditionalists are seeking a return to what might be described as the Eisenhower Era; utilizing various philosophies to achieve this end.  According to him, the Republican Party is “in transition”.    Washington Times

In other words , as he states in an earlier piece:

“One of the major reasons for the GOP's potential demise is that it has been hijacked by dangerous, bigoted and self-serving organizations like the Family Research Council, the National Organization for Marriage and the American Family Association. These are all "hate groups" who seem hell-bent on cleansing the Republican Party of minorities, moderates, women and anyone who supports full equality for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans.”

I don’t know how many of you will actually read this piece and keep this in mind, but what he is espousing is the “my way or the highway” approach to your existence.  If you don’t accept whatever he is forwarding --- then you can leave the Party.

The last time I checked the composition of the Republican Party, the percentage that belonged in the category of “moderate” or “establishment” --- the group tending to be more “liberal” on social issues are quite the minority. 

 

 

People, I keep hearing you say “I’m tired”; “I can’t make a difference”; “I don’t want to get involved”.

That type of  “stinkin’ thinkin’” should not be allowed to permeate your psyche.  Your very existence depends upon it. 

Most of us have never cared one way or the other about issues such as “gay marriage”.  Some care very deeply.  It is your RIGHT to care about the things that matter to you. 

We have turned into a country so deeply divided that the bully pulpit that controls the thought process uses RIDICULE in order to KEEP ORDER.  Be careful with quick acquiescence, though, because once a bully is not able to get compliance by coercion, they will use “whatever means necessary”.  Because at the end of the day, the you might end up being the piece that  Karger wishes to “saw off”.

 

 

 

 

Wake Up, Stand Up....

The White Liberal Assault on Black Republicans…. and Blacks in General….

“They need to shut me up, they need to get rid of me,” Dr. Carson said, as reported in Newsmax. “They can’t find anything else to delegitimize me so they take my words, misinterpret them and try to make it seem that I’m a bigot.”

Last night I got home just in time to catch the news about one more thing that came out of the mouth of Chris Matthews regarding race.  You see Matthews is the arbiter of all things that might be considered “racial”, including “dog whistles” and  other things of such a sensitive nature.  As you know he also is famous for a number of accomplishments including the famous statement:  “I have to tell you, you know, it’s part of reporting this case, this election, the feeling most people get when they hear Barack Obama’s speech. My, I felt this thrill going up my leg. I mean, I don’t have that too often.” 

Well, now the loathsome Chris Matthews , newsman , has redefined the concept of a racist by saying:  “Only Whites Can Be Racists.”

 

 

 OK , he might well be speaking of WHITE DEMOCRATS with his “slip of the tongue” as is evidenced here:

>Bill Maher: Herman Cain ‘Likes Working With Fox Team, Particularly Some Of Them Fine-Ass White Women’

>Lyndon B. Johnson to two governors on Air Force One according Ronald Kessler’s Book, “Inside The White House” “I’ll have those n*ggers voting Democratic for the next 200 years.”

>Fritz Hollings (D, S.C.) Blacks and Hispanics are “too busy eating watermelons and tacos” to learn how to read and write.” — Mike Wallace, CBS News. Source: Newsmax “You’d find these potentates from down in Africa, you know, rather than eating each other, they’d just come up and get a good square meal in Geneva.”

>Senate majority leader Harry Reid said Obama had a chance of winning because he  was both “light-skinned” and didn’t speak with a “negro dialect.”

>Left-wing radio host Neil Rogers “Is you their black-haired answer-mammy who be smart? Does they like how you shine their shoes, Condoleezza? Or the way you wash and park the whitey’s cars?”

>Roger Clinton, the President’s brother on audiotape Some junior high n*gger kicked Steve’s ass while he was trying to help his brothers out; junior high or sophomore in high school. Whatever it was, Steve had the n*gger down. However it was, it was Steve’s fault. He had the n*gger down, he let him up. The n*gger blindsided him.”

>While in front of a mostly black crowd,  Joe Biden evoked the memory of slavery in an attempt to scare black voters into voting for Barack Obama when he stated that Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan wanted to put “y’all back in chains.” Clearly a racially insensitive remark and despite the spin put on the comment by Barack Obama this was not simply a gaffe or “Joe being Joe,” this was a deliberate attempt to paint the Romney ticket as racist.

>The liberal media expressed no outrage and not one word of condemnation was uttered by any Democrat after SEIU (Service Employees International Union) thugs attacked Kenneth Gladney, a black man.  Gladney was beaten, kicked and called a racist name while working as a vendor at a health care reform town hall meeting in St. Louis on August 6, 2009 called by U.S. Rep. Democrat Russ Carnahan.   

>The assault was called  a calculated attempt to intimidate and silence Tea Party protestors and town hall activists.  On the morning of the Gladney attack, the White House presented to Senate Democrats a “battle plan” to quell the protests.  The advice given to the Democrats by the White House was to "punch back twice as hard", and the first casualty was Kenneth Gladney.  In the emergency room of the St. John's Mercy Medical Center, Gladney was treated for injuries to his knee, back, elbow, shoulder and face suffered in the attack.   

>On the left-wing Internet website called "The News Blog," Democrats posted a doctored photograph of RNC Chairman Michael Steele while he was the Lt. Governor of Maryland and running for a Senate seat. Democrats depicted Steele as a "Simple Sambo" with a blackened minstrel-style face, nappy hair and big, think red lips. The cartoon caption read: "Simple Sambo wants to move to the big house". This contemptible racist stereotype is the same one Democrats used to demean black men during the era of slavery and segregation.

So, if the definition of a “racist” is a “person with a prejudiced belief that one race is superior to others.”  Yep, I agree with Chris Matthews, white liberals ARE  racists and he is the leader of the group.
