The Gang of Fourteen – shall the republic fall because of their arrogance and foolishness?
There are those out there who want to overthrow our government and our country. They want to destroy everything we have, take everything we own. All our progress will collapse to ruins if they have their way.
And then they shall replace it all with something pretty much the same.
This danger is the moderate extremists. They are a growing force in politics and why the fourteen came together. The fourteen wished to appease these moderates out of fear of the violence the moderate extremists may or may not use based on whether some sort of consensus can be reached. They have fourteen of our senators in their grasp now, and may soon have more. With enough power, they’ll turn America into some sort of moderacracy, and then we’ll all be doomed… or, at least, bored.
The moderates are the pawns of Satan. They march over all the traditions we have, and, if any oppose them, they’ll take his views into consideration along with all others. They cannot be reasoned with – or they can be reasoned with too much. They are vicious, ruthless, backstabbing, and extremely boring to read about unless lots of hyperbole is used. And they love hyperbole, as it scares people to the mushy middle from which they draw their unholy powers.
These fiends – these moderates – are everywhere. But how can you identify them? They use phrases such as, “I think both sides have valid points here,” “Let’s consider all viewpoints,” and, “Perhaps by reaching a compromise, we can end all this arguing.”
What to do if you find a moderate? Notify the FBI, and, whatever you do, don’t back up from your extreme viewpoints when confronted by one. What moderates desire is to be liked by everyone, but you must hate them. It’s hard, because they seem boring and innocuous, but you must hate them with every fiber of your being. Also, hit them with sticks. While being angry, they may somewhat agree they should be hit with sticks just to confuse you, but don’t fall for it. We must chase all these moderates with their stick-beaten faces out of regular society and leave America to the extremists as God intended.
If it leads to open civil war, the war is what they’ll get. And, as the moderates charge with their battle cry of, “There’s still time to compromise!” be steadfast and not let fear take hold of you. The future lies with us, the extremists, and all the mainstream exists for is to wash away the weak.
Be honorable, ronin – honorable to the extreme!

During the concealed carry class I took with SarahK, we were told the lethal force is allowed to prevent a forcible felony, and that treason counts as a forcible felony. So does that mean if Michael Moore comes to Florida and tries to play one of his movies, I can shoot him?
Also, when the new law comes into effect Oct 1st here in Florida, if someone breaks into my house, sees me with my gun and raises his hands and yells, “Don’t shoot!” I can execute him right then and there and the law can’t touch me.
Frank says: “Just because you are legally able to shoot someone, doesn’t mean its right. If, after consulting with a lawyer, you are able to determine you can legally shoot Michael Moore, just blast his kneecaps because that is funnier.”

At an awards ceremony in Baghdad today, wounded terrorist Abu Musab al-Zarqawi accepted his third Purple Heart from Al Qaeda and announced that had signed form 180, releasing his military records for public inspection.
“Unlike certain American infidel politicians, I have nothing to hide from my people,” said Zarqawi, “except perhaps the occasional roadside explosive device.”
Iraqi’s new President, however, was dubious. “I question the timing of this,” said Iraqi President Jalal Talabani. “He could have just as easily released his records during the invasion and quelled the rumors that the wound which earned him his second Purple Heart was sustained while attempting to mate with a goat.”
Zarqawi insisted that he earned the disputed Purple Heart in the line of duty. “I did NOT have sexual relations with that goat, Fatima!” said Zarqawi. “I was merely trying to subdue an American spy for the glory of Allah!”
“Besides,” added Zarqawi, “it was purely consensual! You can ask Osama! He was there!”
Zarqawi’s Commander-in-Chief, Osama Bin Laden, could not be reached for comment as he is presently in hiding, cleverly disguised as a bloody stain on the walls of a Tora Bora cave.

So… tired…
Well, at least the news is giving me plenty of material for when I get to regular blogging tomorrow. Now, another message for our sponsors.
Just want to remind everyone that the blogads help pay for the quality you come to expect from IMAO. I don’t get money for how many times they are clicked or a percentage of what they sell; they pay a flat fee for ad space. Still, the least you can do if you enjoy IMAO is make sure to check out each advertiser.
I’d like to specifically mention the advertiser in the Patron spot – Realm Dekor – the proprietor of which has bought another weeks time there. Some had dismissed the advertiser as some liberal not paying attention to where she was advertising since there are those who associate anything trendy or artistic with liberalism. There is no truth to that, and what’s more conservative than good ‘ole capitalism? And conservatives come in all stripes – even funky colored ones.
That brings me to my next topic: Brian Anderson sent me a review copy of South Park Conservatives: The Revolt Against Liberal Media Bias which talks about a new generation of conservatives (NRO interview with Brian Anderson is here). I set down my copy of The Moon is a Harsh Mistress which my brother lent me and will get to reading that soon. I used to be a big South Park fan (I still quote the “Underwear Gnome” episode from time to time), but haven’t watched the new episodes the past couple years. Is it still worth watching?
BTW, if anyone else wants to send me free stuff, I now have a P.O. Box. There’s no better way to get publicity than sending me free stuff.
Did I have something else I wanted to say? Guess I could hype what’s coming up this weekend again… nah, too tired.
Be honorable, ronin.

Jin Lin, a 23 year-old Chinese national living in NYC robbed and murdered Simon and Sharon Ng, his former girlfriend and her brother, to finance his escape back to Hong Kong. Lin thought he committed the perfect crime: murder his former girlfriend and her brother, steal their money, and fly back to the safety of Red China…
New York’s Finest knew Lin was lying to them when they checked Simon Ng’s blog and found a post that placed Lin at the scene of the crime and nullified Lin’s alibi. Lin then confessed to the crime.
Blogs: Helping Solve Murders Since 2005
I know The Puppy Blender already mentioned this late yesterday, but I was hoping Michelle Malkin would investigate Lin’s residency status.
Only Michelle could get away with asking questions about this murderer’s legal U.S. residency status because, you know, Michelle Malkin is kinda Asian looking and stuff…

Didn’t get home until midnight yesterday because of a gun class I took with SarahK, and I’m really busy today, so not looking like you’ll get a post out of me unless I can find time for a breather.
Entertain yourself by seeing how many times you can refresh my webpage in an hour and then try to beat that the next hour.
Or try to find out what nukethemoon.com is about (I have no idea).
And try to speculate what is the huge, awesome project we will be unveiling in time for Memorial Day Weekend (one so awesome you will want to bow down and worship all writers for IMAO as gods).

Today, with the so-called filibuster ‘compromise’, a new form of goverment is being ushered in. A form of government characterized by the majority party caving in to the whim of the minority party.
The mighty bowing to the will of the weak.
The many telling the few “We’ve got you outnumbered and surrounded… we’re coming out with our hands up.’
The lion telling the mouse ‘I’ve got an ouchie, you win.’
This hopefully shortlived age when those in the majority will kowtow to those in the minority will no doubt be known as the Age of the American Idiocracy.
One shudders in fear at what will transpire next in the Age of the Idiocrat.
Will Kerry be allowed to use the oval office while Bush fetches him a half-caf double mocha soy latte?
Only time will tell, if the Democrats allow it to that is.

Compromise!
The saints weep and the devil smiles at that word.
There was a compromise reached on the judicial filibusters, with the “maverick” McCain leading the way and the senile Byrd mumbling of a victory for the republic. All he needs is a hood and he’d be Palpatine.
Wait, he has a hood…
Only the wicked and the foolish celebrate a compromise as a victory, for is there any doubt that compromise be the main tool of Satan himself? Can God compromise? Can Jesus compromise? They only know of good, and can never temporarily dabble in evil for the cause of later good. The righteous seek goodness in both their means and their end.
But for the devil, nothing prevents him for allowing good if he can get others to allow a bit of evil with it. Only he could have invented compromise, and doubt not that he uses it daily. “The path of good is hard, so why not accept just a little evil to make it easier?” he whispers in your ear. And gradually, through compromise, he gets his victims to mix some black with their white until they end up with an ever darkening gray.
So know that compromise be an evil word. That’s why it is said that when one strays from the straight and narrow he has “compromised his principles.” And when stuck in evil you be, they say you are in a “compromising position.” When you hear politicians have “compromised,” it should thus make you cringe.
Yes, Satan seeks the extremes of evil, but wily be the tempter. Were he a politician, no doubt he would pose himself as a moderate, slowly moving the “center” until it is all within his evil grasp.
Beware the compromise, my friend. Always signed in blood and smelling of brimstone, they are. Perhaps politically we are all still safe, but, without steadfast courage, such safety is always compromised.
Be honorable, ronin, and never let your honor be the subject of compromise.

Poor Howard. The self-described “King” has so much money now that he’s become lazy and has stooped so low as to steal material from Frank J.
Several people have told me that Stern had an Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonator call in to suggest “blowing up the moon” to Stern. Apparently some people were even fooled into thinking The Governator was serious about destroying the Earth’s diminutive sister, Luna.
Running out on your wife and kids was bad enough, but to steal material from Frank J. and IMAO without proper credit? That’s pathetic, Howard.
