Virginia Senate candidate Tim Kaine speaks at dinner honoring top Muslim Brotherhood official

By teaming with Moslems, the politicians who do it enjoy the benefits of apparent heroism by giving aid to perceived victims, a protected class, and they also get positive press, a small but committed voting block, and I'm sure in some cases even oil money (indirectly deposited, of course).

If you think about it, now that we are no longer a nation of laws, much less one of patriots, there is no reason to not team up with Moslems. Except principle. And while pols like Tancredo, King and Myrick still have principle, the idea of doing the right thing on principle is already quite rare and may soon disappear from our body politic altogether.

Because of the massive asymmetry in our dialog about Moslems, it makes perfect sense for our leaders to sell us out. Nobody on the TV is gonna complain, our news entertainers certainly won't. A world without principle is a perfect setup for ad naseum reportage, solid ratings and circular arguments made possible by disconnection in the form of unquestioned freedom-from-fact.

In other words, the Opinion Programming industry.

As it has in so many other areas, the Republican Party has abrogated its duty on Moslems. Being without an organized opposition is how we've drifted into socialism and globalism, fake science, unlawful governance dilapidated education and other forms of open treason. We're on a roll. Downhill. Real fast. With a roaring icy stream at the bottom. That kinda outcome scenario.

So why not with the Moslems, too?

These politicians are such $2 whores.

Whether they are by design or accidental, I despise a$$ kissing traitors. That goes double for "public servants".

Question: have ACT for America and other related freedom-fighting organisations got a Roll of Shame and a Roll of Fame?

You watch the behaviour of serving and aspiring politicians - local, state and federal - like hawks.

Those that - like this fellow Kaine - are seen hobnobbing ostentatiously with, and sucking up to, the Enemy, get put on the Roll of Shame.

Let them know that they're on it, and why. Let others know about their dangerous folly (or their dangerous complicity, or - if they have been blackmailed, or threatened, and caved - their dangerous cowardice). If you're unlucky enough to be their actual or potential constituent, let them know - politely, concisely - why you will NOT be giving them your vote.

The much shorter, and more select list, is the Roll of Honour. Currently, in the USA, so far as I can see, Rep Allen West heads it up. There are a few others.

*That* list comprises those who are prepared to a. publicly criticise Islam, or aspects of Islam and b. have the guts to say NO to Muslims. Watch your pollies closely. Watch for even the tiniest flicker of Resistance, the tiniest hint that the person is getting a Bad Feeling about this thing called 'Islam'. And when you see it, do your best to encourage it. Write or ring at once, and support them. If they cop political flak, be especially encouraging. Let them know that *you* know they may be receiving death threats, threats of lawsuits, etc. If the person showing bravery and discernment is - or aspires to be - *your* representative, pay him or her a personal visit.

I have been compiling a List of the somewhat-less-confused and somewhat-less-cowardly for some time, here in Australia.

Note: if a politician is a genuine and consistent supporter of Israel's right to defend itself (even if said politician has not yet grasped that the war the local Arab Muslims are waging against Israel is a Jihad without end) then you are more likely to find that this politician may also have misgivings about Islam, or may be educable on the subject.

Keep an eye open for such politicians as are willing to be publicly seen attending and even speaking at a. a pro-Israel rally b. a rally on behalf of the persecuted Copts [or, for that matter, on behalf of any other minority that Muslims are currently viciously persecuting] and (in the USA) a rally protesting against the Jihad Victory Mosque in NYC. I added a whole bunch of names to my 'potentially educable' list when the Copts here in Australia held a rally to protest against the mass-murder of Copts in Cairo by the Egyptian army: eight politicians (six from Federal Parliament, two from the NSW state parliament) attended; and every one of those, will receive a letter from me, thanking them for standing up for human rights and enclosing a copy of Mark Durie's excellent mini-essay on dhimmitude, in connection with the present plight of the Copts.

Tim Kaine was a one-term governor of Virginia. He pushed for increased taxes, more regulations of business, and his goodbye to Virginia statehouse, after losing reelection, was to seize private property in the form of a smoking ban in restaurants and bars as the last piece of legislation he signed before bugging out. Then he became chairman of the Democratic National Committee. He is a socialist who wears the pinafore of Populism. He has the ethics of a pig. Of course he would honor a Muslim, any muslim, regardless of the Muslim’s ideological antecedents. It doesn’t matter to him. He wants power, and the power to screw anyone who values his freedom. I left a note on his Brotherhood dinner remarks on his Facebook page.

This is a short observation.

Campaign finance laws prevent large contributions to candidates from single donors. Candidates scramble for money all the time, and are unlikely to systematically turn down money. The ones who do, lose.

The solution is to reform the laws allowing unlimited contributions from Americans only, on the condition that the contributions be fully and publicly documented and that any direct or indirect contacts with contributors be public. This would allow the presence of Congressmen who are truly able to fully explore the dangers to the country. It will also allow more like Kieth Ellison, the Muslim Congressman. It will give the Congress a lot more rough edges, but will allow more unfettered truths to be spoken.

I say, let the open debates begin.

It's sad that many pols are so ill-informed that they think Muslims are just another flavor of electoral diversity. Democrats are usually the worst, but top Rs like Chris Christie and Rick Perry have also pandered effusively.
