REMOVING THE CROSSES FROM LAS CRUCES: ACLU SUES FOR RELIGIOUS CENSORSHIP

Cross Posted from Stop The ACLU The ACLU, who claims to be America's guardian of liberty is ironically the most active religious censor in America . For nearly two generations it has relentlessly forced countless communities into submission when it comes to public expression of faith, particularly Christianity. California has been fighting to save their seal , its history and heritage from the clutches of the ACLU's secular cleansing with everything they've got. The people voted to keep the seal, but the ACLU is not interested in democracy. They believe they know what is best for society, and are willing to force it on people through their finely tuned skills of judicial activism. Now they are at it again- this time in the small village of Tijeras, New Mexico (population 474). Earlier this week, our friend The Mary Hunter at TMH's Bacon Bits told us the story, and asked, where is the ACLU? Two residents of a New Mexico town are suing to remove three crosses from the of

TO THE NY TIMES: KEEP TRYING, IT'S NOT ENOUGH!

It looks like the NY TIMES is coming under assault from the left these days, as well as the right. Editor & Publisher has posted a piece ripping the NYT for not "ordering hard reporting" about their own Judith Miller, while the Times' Ombudsman defended FOX NEWS' Geraldo Rivera from an uncorrected misrepresentation in their own pages. The only thing I can make of this is an old adage: "Keep your friends close, but your enemies closer." Good luck to all involved. Hat tip to Buzzflash.com , among the most blatant of liberal sites (see for yourself) ! No link for the NY TIMES here, thank me!

HELP STOP THE ACLU!

My friends at STOP the ACLU still need some help raising money for their Washington Times advertisement. Even if you don't donate, click on the link in the title of this post, and read some of the comments left there by supporters of the ACLU (comments 11, 15, and 17). It is enlightening to read the level of idiocy shown by these people, who have been leaving some of the most ridiculous comments I've seen anywhere! Also read how the gang over at STOP the ACLU deal with them. It will make you laugh. UPDATE: Read comment 40 for a full-on liberal rant! It's a killer when these people expose themselves for the fools that they are. This rant could be called "confessions of a dangerous mind." MOONBATS! LOL!

UNION PAYS WAL-MART PICKETERS LESS THAN WAL-MART PAYS EMLOYEES

This is an excerpt from the Oct. 10 National Review: (I)n the Las Vegas area...the temp agency Labor Express...has some openings in unskilled outdoor work at $6 an hour . But the work is grueling: You have to walk up and down toting heavy signs in noonday temperatures of over 100 degrees... Who is the unscrupulous employer taking advantage of minimum-wage labor like this? Why, it's...the United Food and Commercial Workers labor union, which needs people to man its picket lines at the local Wal-Mart. This particular Wal-Mart store has a pay scale starting at $6.75 an hour , and the place is air-conditioned. So, if you do take that picketing job, you might want to take a break from work for a few minutes to dodge inside the store and fill out a job application... TOO FUNNY! Hat tip to the NY POST paper version, where I excerpted this from.

NYCLU ADVOCATES CHILDREN HAVING SEX

This is an email alert from the NYCLU: Dear Supporter, Did you know that New York State ranks second nationally in the amount of federal money it receives to fund abstinence-only-until-marriage programs? A recent congressional report found that these programs teach students dangerous misinformation. For example, they distort statistics to suggest that condoms are ineffective in preventing pregnancy and sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Do we really want these misleading programs taught to students in our state – which reports 40,000 teen pregnancies per year as well as rates of certain STIs among young people that are four times the state average? What civil right are they trying to defend here? Are they aware that most school-age children are not of the legal age of consent? It IS NOT a civil right to teach children how to have "safe sex." In fact, many parents might not only wish for abstinence to be taught, but established as a rule. Think of it this way: If it is il

WEST IS A DIRECTION ON A MAP!

A NEW RANT AT NEXTLEAV!

CORZINE: "INVEST" TO GROW THE ECONOMY

I don't know much about NJ politics, except that they are just as corrupt as our politicians here in NY. I was watching the NJ Gubenatorial debate between Doug Forrester and Sen. John Corzine, and something Sen. Corzine said struck me. He appears to believe that the government has to increase spending to grow the economy. He uses the old liberal standby, "invest," but what does investment mean, relative to current government expenditures? He means increase, and not the standard inflation of current expenditures that no government, local, state or federal, seems to be able to escape. Think of what government "investments" in education and ending poverty have wrought. Is this is what he proposes for economic development? HA! (-That's what I yelled at my TV when hearing his statement.) Government isn't the one who should invest, unless it involves tax breaks or subsidies for the proper investors, which are private businesses. Ideally, it should not have to

ISRAEL VS. PALESTINE: SOME THOUGHTS

It is not irrational for the Israelis to think that the concession of the Gaza Strip will allow them to expand in the West Bank. It is not irrational for the Palestinians to think that the consession of the Gaza Strip will allow them to expand in the West Bank. Neither statement negates the other, but you can see where this is going. Same story, new front. Israel has given a signifigant concession, and not recieved one signifigant concession in return. The Palestinians are controlled by terrorists, deeper than the Taliban controlled Afghanistan. Mahmood Abbas is a figurehead to negotiate with, but has little actual power in the Palestinian territories. Israel will now take what land it needs to for defensive purposes, in the face of unchecked Palestinian aggression and terrorism. Unlike in Iraq, watch especially hard for the terrorists to make their presence felt in the Gaza, because it won't be heavily reported . The factional fighting has escalated, with a General who was an Ara

I'M BACK!

Well, who knew it would be so simple? A friend advised me to use the F8 key, and operate in "safe" mode, until he can come help me out. IT WORKED! I should have called him sooner, but I used the time to finish an amazing book by Dr. Thomas Sowell, The Quest For Cosmic Justice. I've mentioned it before, but was actually about half way through it when I started blogging last year. This is a good book to give to a liberal friend, but only if they are of a certain intelligence level. Dr. Sowell deals in precise terms with the very amorphous notion of "Cosmic (meaning "social") Justice." I'll probably be referencing it in some future posts, as long as I don't have anymore PC problems! Thanks for the kind comments, and I'm glad to be back! I almost had my fiance (Anna) post something for me, but she's a liberal, and might have edited it to say the reverse! LOL! No, she wouldn't have done that. I scribbled down some stuff, but I found that

LEAVWORLD TEMPORARILY OFFLINE

My PC crashed, and it may be a few weeks until I'm back online. I'm writing this from my fiance's PC, after our monthly dinner with her family. I am thankful that this is the most immediate of my woes, as so many are struggling just to survive in the wake of Katrina. May God bless all the victims, the rescuers, and the many people supporting them both. Until further notice, LEAVWORLD SIGNING O FF. PS: I HAVE RESTRICTED COMMENTS TO REGISTERED BLOGGERS. My fiance also may post something for me once a week, though I hesitate to add to her many responsibilities.

NEVER AGAIN: WHAT ABOUT DARFUR?

Sudan is experiencing a genocide, the kind which all the founding nations of the U.N. said they would "never again" allow to happen. See this animation (also linked in title), from http://www.savedarfur.org/ . While our government uses so many resources to save the lives of our citizens after Katrina, the Sudanese government uses their resources to kill off their own citizens, and has for a long time. This must not stand. Even in a time of crisis at home, some must speak out about this genocide. I will speak out, though we must take care of our own country before we can help others. This hurricane has been a devastating blow to parts of our nation, and will affect us all. My heart is with the people affected by Katrina. It is no less with the people of Darfur. Watch the animation, already! Hat tip to Rosemary, and visit all her sites, starting with LOVE AMERICA FIRST ! I also want to refer readers to nygirl's post about the famine in Niger. She has an excellent blog,
