Arizona Governor Jan Brewer continues to display the kind of courage and conviction that very few modern-day politicians are capable of. In a concept completely foreign to our current rogue federal government, she continues to actively defend and protect her people.

The anti-American jackass in the white house could learn lots from principled American leaders like Gov. Brewer; alas King Zero has no interest in protecting our country, its citizens, or the things that have made us great.

Ronnie James Dio, July 10, 1942 – May 16, 2010

Don’t know what to say except we’ve lost one of the great rock and metal vocalists of all time. Age 67, stomach cancer.

Dio’s career spanned over five decades, from the “Vegas Kings” in 1957 to “Heaven and Hell” in 2010 – with stops along the way in Elf, Richie Blackmore’s Rainbow, Black Sabbath, and his own incredible solo career in “Dio” – the guy was a tireless performer who truly lived for the music he loved.

So long Ronnie, thanks for everything.

Supreme Court Nominee Elena Kagan’s Thesis on Socialism

So, is she or isn’t she?

No, not a lesbian, silly. A socialist.

Consider the following from her college thesis entitled “TO THE FINAL CONFLICT: SOCIALISM IN NEW YORK CITY, 1900-1933″

“Through its own internal feuding, then, the SP [Socialist Party] exhausted itself forever and further reduced labor radicalism in New York to the position of marginality and insignificance from which it has never recovered.

“The story is a sad but also a chastening one for those who, more than half a century after socialism’s decline, still wish to change America,” she wrote. “Radicals have often succumbed to the devastating bane of sectarianism; it is easier, after all, to fight one’s fellows than it is to battle an entrenched and powerful foe. Yet if the history of Local New York shows anything, it is that American radicals cannot afford to become their own worst enemies. In unity lies their only hope.”

Yes, that is Elena Kagan, Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, bemoaning the fall of the Socialist party in New York.

Kagan is dangerous, and typical of the leftist radicals he surrounds himself with.

Red State has been forced to remove Kagan’s thesis from their website. We have not. Download Elena Kagan’s thesis here, and do everything you can to ensure it’s seen by as many people as possible.

Why this woman is still allowed to hold her job, let alone be anywhere near teenage girls, is anybody’s guess:

From Fox: School Official in Basketball Flap Is No Stranger to Controversy

The school official who nixed a girls’ high school basketball team’s planned trip to Arizona once supported a controversial program that required ninth-graders to attend a “freshman advisory” class at which gay upperclassmen shared stories of their high school experiences.

Parents who were unhappy with the class were even more outraged to learn that students who attended were asked to sign a statement promising not to tell others — including their parents — about what was said in class.

Suzan Hebson, assistant superintendent of Highland Park, Ill., School District 113, killed the hoop dreams of the Highland Park High School girls’ basketball team this week when she canceled their plans to participate in a tournament in Arizona in December. The decision has some parents and residents of the district crying foul over what they say was a politically motivated protest over the Grand Canyon State’s recently passed immigration law.

But Hebson is no stranger to controversy. She’s been criticized for making decisions based on politics numerous times in the past.

In 2007, when she was assistant superintendent for human resources in the district, Hebson made national news for supporting an initiative at Deerfield High School that required freshman students to participate in orientation panel discussions, one of which was led by members of the school’s Straight and Gay Alliance Network. During the seminars, upperclassmen spoke to the ninth graders about a variety of topics affecting homosexual teens, including their own personal experiences — and all students were required to sign confidentiality agreements swearing never to disclose what they heard.

More of the bumbling, ignorant, incompetent arrogance we’ve all come to know and love from the Obama administration: Eric Holder, after weeks of shooting his mouth off about the negatives in the Arizona illegal immigration law, comes right out and admits he’s never even read it.

This man, just like his boss, is a disgrace to our country and to the very notions of honesty, integrity, law and order.

From the Washington Times:

Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr., who has been critical of Arizona’s new immigration law, said Thursday he hasn’t yet read the law and is going by what he’s read in newspapers or seen on television.

Mr. Holder is conducting a review of the law, at President Obama’s request, to see if the federal government should challenge it in court. He said he expects he will read the law by the time his staff briefs him on their conclusions.

“I’ve just expressed concerns on the basis of what I’ve heard about the law. But I’m not in a position to say at this point, not having read the law, not having had the chance to interact with people are doing the review, exactly what my position is,” Mr. Holder told the House Judiciary Committee.

Just perfect.

Barack Obama, the Traitorious Enemy Within

I haven’t posted much since the passage of the healthcare bill, mostly because I have been in almost utter disbelief in what has been happening to our country at the hands of one Barack Hussein Obama. It has been far, far worse than I ever imagined, and gets moreso with each passing day. His willful disregard for the rule of law, his highly orchestrated fostering of civil unrest – pitting citizen against citizen with the dividing lines being race, class, national origin and even union affiliation – and now, demonizing an entire state that wants nothing more than to live a safe, peaceful existence but which is now forced to do the job the federal government refuses to do, ie protect and defend our borders.

I want you to do something. I want you to take a long hard look at our current financial and social situations.

Now, I want you to look at Greece. Then take a look at Great Britain. Then take a look at Zimbabwe and South Africa.

Then understand that those four countries represent our future, and it is by design. It is being done to us intentionally.

Now decide if you are going to let it happen.
