Hank Williams Jr fick sparken

For over two decades, Hank Williams Jr.’s variation of his hit All My Rowdy Friends had opened up Monday Night Football.  But that all changed on October 3, when Williams appeared on Fox and Friendsto promote a new CD featuring songs written by his father.  He was asked what he thought about current affairs.  Williams said that Boehner playing Golf with Obama was like Hitler playing golf with Netanyahu, and described Joe Biden and Barack Obama as “the enemy.”

The predictable outrage ensued.   ESPN took no time to cancel Williams’ song that night. And depending on whose story you believe they either fired him or he quit in protest within a few days.

Of course, the outrage from the Left over both of Williams’ statements is hypocritical. He was not arguing that Obama was Hitler, merely that he saw Boehner and Obama as polarized enemies whose playing golf together was anomalous.  This analogy may have been clumsy. But the Left has no problem smearing opposition to mass immigration, affirmative action and even high taxes as stemming from the Third Reich.

As for calling Obama “the enemy”, the Great Transcender has already called majority of Americans who oppose amnesty “enemies” whom Hispanics needed to “punish.”

With Hank Jr.’s politics in the spotlight, the usual suspects are trying to dig up as much dirt as possible, not merely to prove that he is a racist, but more generally that White Southerners and country music fans should somehow be seen as unAmerican and accordingly marginalized by society. Thus David Zirin, the sports columnist of The Nation (yes, they have sports columnist), points to Williams’ 1988 hit If the South Woulda Won, and quotes the lyrics…

British National Party har problem

De brittiska invandringskritiska partierna och organisationerna är ganska många. I Storbritannien har man ett majoritärt valsystem, till skillnad från vårt proportionella system, som gör det svårt för mindre partier att konkurrera med de största. Vid valen till Europaparlamentet används däremot det proportionella systemet.

Det starkt EU-kritiska United Kingdom Independence Party (UKIP) har elva platser (de fick 16.2 % av rösterna i EU-valet 2009) och British National Party har två platser i Europaparlamentet (de fick 6,2 % av rösterna). UKIP:s grundare och partiledare Nigel Farage har blivit en av de främsta representanterna för europeiska EU-kritiker och väcker ofta stor uppmärksamhet med sina bitska och ironiska utfall mot Europeiska kommissionens ordförande José Manuel Borosso och Europeiska rådets ordförande Herman von Rompey.

British National Party är det största starkt invandringskritiska partiet och de stod på topp 2009 efter en omfattande EU-kampanj. Efter ett dåligt valresultat i den allmänna valen 2010 uppstod ett antal problem där partiledaren Nick Griffin kom att hamna i skottgluggen. Han anklagades för att ha tagit flera grovt felaktiga som lett till att många ledande personer har avskedats eller lämnat partiet. Som en direkt följd av problemen bildades Britain First, en rörelse som startades av missnöjda BNP-medlemmar. På sin hemsida förklarar de varför de valt att lämna BNP och en stor del av skulden lägger de på partiledaren. En kritik mot BNP är att de blivit för mycket av en valorganisation som uteslutande ägnar sig åt valarbete och har glömt bort vikten av gatuaktiviteter, något English Defence League med viss framgång har specialiserat sig på. Den tongivande BNP-politikern Richard Barnbrook ville liksom många andra att man borde byta ut Griffin, som varit partiledare alldeles för länge och börjar få svårt att klara sina uppgifter. BNP har fortfarande en stark organisation men brottas med många problem, varav några orsakats av våldsamma kampanjer mot partiet från etablissemanget. Bland annat har högsta domstolen tvingat partiet att överge principen om att endast infödda britter kunde bli medlemmar och BBC har bedrivit omfattande kampanjer mot partiet.

I somras skulle partiet välja ny ledare och det fanns två kandidater att välja mellan, veteranen och EU-parlamentarikern Andrew Brons och Nick Griffin. När Griffin vann med endast nio röster över Griffin var många besvikna över resultatet och lämnade partiet direkt.

Is George Soros behind Occupy Wall Street?

Billionaire hedge fund big-shot George Soros could have helped get the Occupy Wall Street movement off the ground, as donations from the pocketbook of the Budapest-born financier have been tied to the ongoing movement.

 

Spokespeople for Soros have rejected claims that the billionaire helped fund the movement both directly or indirectly after radio host Rush Limbaugh speculated earlier that the hedge fund magnate was behind the protests. Spokesman Michael Vachon tells Reuters, ”Assertions to the contrary are an attempt by those who oppose the protesters to cast doubt on the authenticity of the movement.”

Contributions from Soros to an organization called the Tides Center, however, could have trickled down to the demonstrations, research suggests.

Soros has over time handed over at least $3.5 million to the Tides Center, who in turn has given grants to the anti-capitalist Canadian magazine Adbusters. It is believed that that a call-out campaign started by Adbusters served as a catalyst in the Occupy Wall Street movement, which as it is approaches its fifth week has managed to spread in cities from coast-to-coast and into other countries internationally.

The Tides Center has given grants of around $185,000 to Adbusters over the last decade or so, which was founded out of Vancouver, British Columbia in 1989. Vancouver, one of the most populated cities in all of Canada, is plotting an Occupy demonstration movement itself in solidarity with the Wall Street protesters this weekend.

Adbusters has responded to the allegations that Soros has helped them by shooting down the suggestions. ”George Soros’s ideas are quite good, many of them. I wish he would give Adbusters some money, we sorely need it,” co-founder Kalle Lasn tells Reuters. ”He’s never given us a penny.”

It is undeniable, however, that Soros’ did indeed contribute to an organization which in turn helped support the magazine.

Soros has publically both acknowledged and supported the Occupy Wall Street movement, telling members of the press last week that ”I can understand their sentiment.”

“The decision not to inject capital into the banks but to effectively relieve them of their bad assets, and them allow them to earn their way out of a hole, gave the banks bumper profits and that allowed them to pay bumper bonuses. As I say, I can sympathize with their grievances,” Soros said.

In September, Soros suggested that the economic state of America could most likely lead the country to enter a double-dip recession.
