Wed, Feb 13:11:30 8 GMT 30 http://my.greasy.com/think141/apology_jewish_bloggers.html A couple of weeks ago I posted an article that some might have misinterpreted. In that post I expressed anger at Left-wing Jews who have failed to grasp a vital lesson from the holocaust. I worry now that some might think my anger extends to the victims of the Nazi brutality. That could not be further from the truth. Throughout my life I have devoted every spare moment to the analysis of the causes of that inconceivable horror. I have looked at it from every possible perspective. I am enti ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/apology_jewish_bloggers.html#comments Thu, 12 Nov 2009 17:34:59 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/book_ufos_post_x.html The Bible states clearly and emphatically (Gen.6:1-4) that beings came down from the heavens and produced mighty men. In fact it goes further and implies that they produced an entirely new race of men called the Nephilim. So what? Some people, the ones who claim to be bound to believe every word of the Bible, choose to rework the meaning of these passages so that they will not contradict their personal beliefs. Others, those who deny the sanctity of the Bible, point to the same verses as e ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/book_ufos_post_x.html#comments Tue, 10 Nov 2009 16:46:27 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/eternal_victim.html Last month I put up a post about a movie titled, “Hallelujah I’m a Bum”. I cannot tell you how much that movie disturbed me. As it is I was only able to tolerate it in ten minute doses for a total viewing time of about 30 minutes. But even that limited exposure continues to haunt me today. In my mind there is an aura of death surrounding the whole picture. I didn’t quite understand why that was. I mean it’s no secret that I detest the communist philosophy but I found this movie t ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/eternal_victim.html#comments Fri, 6 Nov 2009 14:56:38 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/sweet_sarah_defined.html The Sarah Palin saga is a disturbing one. What the Dem/Left did to her and continues to do to her clarifies who they are in a way that should frighten all of us. My first impression in the days immediately after her nomination to the Repub ticket was that the pods had come to earth, attached themselves to the heads of the Dem/Left and turned them into brain dead vegetables. It is an image that will not die in my mind as the Left thinking masses continue to lurch blindly in every direction ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/sweet_sarah_defined.html#comments Mon, 7 Sep 2009 15:39:52 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/lessons_communism_4.html This one is going to be very difficult for me to explain in a way that you can understand. It really has to do with a psychological degeneracy that takes possession of individuals and whole societies when personal responsibility and personal reward are removed from the equation of survival of the fittest. To put it another way the goal of communism is for everyone to survive and for everyone to survive on equal terms. This defies the Darwinian law of survival of the fittest. Something very ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/lessons_communism_4.html#comments Fri, 4 Sep 2009 16:47:16 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/lessons_communism_1.html If you are a baby boomer it may seem to you, as it does to me, that your kids and grandkids are oblivious to the insidious nature of communism. I’ll bet you’ve seen that ‘What’re you talkin’ about, old man?’ look. The one we all get when we mention communism. What that look means is that they want you to grow up. The bogeymen you fought in Korea or Viet Nam were never real. Your government made them up so that they could get you to go off and fight for oil or rubber or whatever ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/lessons_communism_1.html#comments Wed, 2 Sep 2009 15:00:38 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/lesons_communism_4.html In my last post I said I could identify at least four axiomatic failures in the Marxist philosophy of communism. By itself, any one of these faults would be sufficient to turn the communist utopian dream into a nightmare in reality. I described one of those faults in an article earlier this week as the Marxist demand for the sacrifice of personal liberty for the sake of social equality. Today I intend to reveal a second fault in the philosophical foundations of Marxist communism. Fault #2: ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/lesons_communism_4.html#comments Wed, 2 Sep 2009 14:57:57 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/lessons_communism_3.html Reason #3 that Marxism is an impossible utopian dream: Absolute power corrupts absolutely. If you are a Leftist stargazer you might be half-aware that a Marxist system always demands that its citizens surrender all of their freedoms, all of their possessions and all of the fruits of their labor. Maybe you even think that is a fair trade for what you believe you will get in return: social equality and government fulfillment of your every need from your daily bread to all of your health care ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/lessons_communism_3.html#comments Wed, 2 Sep 2009 14:55:05 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/capitalist_dog.html If I’m so smart why ain’t I rich? I am 61 years old. I have arthritis, diabetes and have suffered three heart attacks. My entire monthly income is the $674 I collect from social security disability. This is my resume’. Aside from being a genius with an IQ between 135 and 145 my best virtue is frugality. Over the last ten-day period I have spent exactly $0.25.

Most of us think that Bible stuff should be listed under religion. But quite often religion or its related holy books truly are news. The discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls was huge news for example. And let’s be honest, the “war on terror” is all about the Quran vs. Western civilization. The fact is that the Bible has had an immense effect on the evolution of Western civilization and an ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/good_news.html#comments Wed, 29 Apr 2009 14:12:11 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/blindness_bigotry.html If you did not see the Olbermann/Garofalo interview this week you will not be able to imagine the incredible levels of hatred that have taken possession of the slaves to emotion that represent the Left. The scope of its irrationality sucked the air out of my very lungs. It is difficult for me to listen to some of the absurdity of the Left and not respond with accusations of idiocy. I have to remind myself that it is not idiocy that pushes them to act moronic. It is their inability to deal ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/blindness_bigotry.html#comments Sat, 18 Apr 2009 14:44:48 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/pink_star_rising.html Maybe I’ve been a little hard on Pres O. It’s crazy of me to imagine that he’s out to turn the U.S. into a full blown Red Communist State isn’t it? But just about everyone now has come to the realization that he is at least determined to make us into a Socialist State, the consequences of which few of us can foresee. Since it appears now that our socialization is unavoidable someone ought to provide a fair analysis of what our brave new world will look like.

Almost no one agrees with his methods and tactics but, hey, he’s doing his damnedest. I don’t buy it. I think he’s doing his best to drive us into social chaos so that he can redesign America on the Marxist model. My observations on his behavior lead me to the conclusion that he is following with careful calculation the directions lai ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/red_star_rising.html#comments Wed, 18 Mar 2009 17:12:44 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/unraveling_mind_mysterious_left.html I don’t consider anyone on the Left to be my enemy. I consider them to be mysteries. I want to understand them to set my own mind at rest that truth is elementary and not relative. Right and wrong may exist at odds in personal perceptions but truth itself is not selective. Yesterday I tuned into “Air Amerika” to study the matter further and was not disappointed. A discussion was going on between the host and callers on issues of the “Stimulus Package”. Apparently the Left is angr ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/unraveling_mind_mysterious_left.html#comments Sun, 15 Feb 2009 20:02:06 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/finished.html “It Is Finished.” [John 19:30] America’s 233 year experiment in democracy ended the day Barack Obama was sworn in as the President of the United States. And the greatest capitalist enterprise in the history of mankind did not survive an entire month beyond his inauguration. That ended yesterday with the passage of the Orwellian named “Stimulus Package”. Are these statements the ravings of a mad blogger? Not at all. They are facts prima facie.

When I tell folks that critical Bible scholarship has failed in over 2 ½ centuries to reveal an iota of divine truth in it I’m told I’ll be going to hell.

I cannot imagine a more fit description of Barack Obama than as a razzle dazzler. Only a few weeks remain before his swearing in as President of the United States and no human being outside of his wife and a few associates can tell you who he is or what he intends to do. He’s all light and no substance.

I’m serious about this. Every knockout genius I have ever observed in the entertainment industry has been a comedian. Actors, on the other hand, tend to filter down to the depths of the fishbowl. I was fortunate, for example, to have known Paul Winchell in his later years. He was a man who could converse rationally on pr ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/1st_bull_piece_prize_awarded.html#comments Sat, 6 Dec 2008 20:11:18 GMT http://my.greasy.com/think141/st_lady_got_back.html 1st Lady Got Back. Thanksgiving in my family is a little different from that of the typical American family. I have twelve siblings all with children and grandchildren and, with one exception, we’re all South-siders. So when one of my sisters came to the party and began passing out copies of a commentary she down-loaded from the Chicago Sun-Times/AP (11/22/08) it stimulated a bit of conversation foreign to the ears of some our progeny.

The truth is that it is the way people use a word that defines a word. Words are defined on playgrounds, in the media and on our movie screens. Anywhere conversation takes place words are being defined. Nothing satisfies a rapper, for example, more than having invented a new word or redefined an old one. A rapper is not worthy of the name until he has achieved this lofty goal. No poet is worthy of the n ... http://my.greasy.com/think141/word.html#comments Thu, 20 Nov 2008 16:45:56 GMT
