Merry Christmas to all (Particularly those protecting our backsides!)

Sir Winston Churchill versus the OIC

“Here was the new Koran of faith and war: turgid, verbose, shapeless, but pregnant with its message. The main thesis of Mein Kampf is simple.”
- Sir Winston Churchill from his masterpiece The Gathering Storm summarizing Hitler’s Mein Kampf

A superb and fascinating act of exegesis has been committed by our dear friends at Weapons of Musical Defense (WMD).

First a bit of background.

Last Thursday, the Organization of the Islamic Conference’s (OIC) further greased the road to Durban II by getting their “defamation” of religion resolution - stating that “Islam is frequently and wrongly associated with human rights violations and terrorism”-passed the U.N. General Assembly.

Shocking we know. One suspects Hitler himself could have gotten Mein Kampf passed the U.N. General Assembly had it existed at the time.

Precisely the point of WMD’s analysis! They provide an illuminating extract from Sir Winston’s The Gathering Storm wherein Sir Winston, who had been warning of the “madness of the Mahommedan religion” since the late 1800’s, declares Hitler’s Mein Kampf “the new Koran of faith and war.” He then supports his assertion point by point.

Anything sound familiar here? Yet the tragic charade continues.

As WMD’s THE LAW asks,

“Winston Churchill called Islam ‘the religion of blood and war.’ The most representative body of Islam in its 1400 year history, the 57 Islamic nations of the OIC (Organization of The Islamic Conference), says ‘Islam, the religion of peace, tolerance and compassion.’ Who would you believe?”

Celebrating THE NEW Bill of Rights Day

Each year on 15 December, millions of American’s celebrate Bill of Rights Day. Well… all right. But seriously, 12/15 is Bill of Rights Day; first declared in 1941 by FDR to commemorate the 150th anniversary of the ratification of the Bill of Rights.

Originally the Framers adopted the Bill of Rights “in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its (the Constitution’s) powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added: And as extending the ground of public confidence in the Government, will best ensure the beneficent ends of its institution.”

In other words, the Framers sought to further define the LIMITS of American governmental power so that free men might employ their individual creativity, industry, and sense of good will in pursuit of “beneficent ends” as they saw fit. This would, in the light of current political fashion, make them craven right-wing greed-crazed nut-monkeys.

Regardless, none of that matters now, for it is a new day. The free market is dead. The government of the United States is finally waking to the full realization of its awesome responsibility in the care and well-being of its people. No more of the oppression, racism, injustice, and brutality that have characterized America’s tragic story heretofore. Hope and change will end it all by ensuring the true “rights” and “beneficent ends” deserved of all Americans – nay, the entire global village!

Hence, in celebration of Bill of Rights Day 2008, we present to you: the United States of America’s NEW Bill of Rights.

Amendment I
No person shall be denied health care of any kind, any where, any time, for any reason, regardless of actual need, citizenship, or ability/willingness/intention to pay.

Amendment II
No person shall be denied a home mortgage of any kind, any where, any time, for any reason, regardless of actual need, citizenship, or ability/willingness/intention to pay.

Amendment III
No person shall be denied a personal computer and high-speed broadband Internet access regardless of actual need, citizenship, or ability/willingness/intention to pay.

Amendment IV
No business venture shall be forced to endure the humiliation of bankruptcy or foreclosure even in instances of bald-faced incompetence or immorality.

Amendment V
No person/organization/nation shall be forced to honor debts of any kind, be they incurred honorably or dishonorably, or with the slightest ability/intention of ever actually being paid.

Amendment VI
No person shall be subjected to the humiliation of earning less than a suitable “living wage” the definition of which to be determined entirely at the whim of the wage earner and his/her respective activist support network.

Amendment VII
No member of government at any level shall be held accountable for any act, ever, no matter how utterly unscrupulous or deleterious to the welfare of the United States of America, unless they be Republican.

Amendment VIII
No person at any level of income, up to and including no income whatsoever, shall be denied the means of a comfortable retirement in keeping with the lifestyle to which they have become accustomed, or to which they aspire.

Amendment IX
No person shall be denied the standard of living they feel they deserve, regardless of their willingness to undertake the activities traditionally associated with achieving it.

Amendment X
No person shall be denied Freedom from Want, a right more sacred even than those of life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness.

With these strictures firmly enshrined in the Bill of Rights of the United States Constitution, the nation it governs will at last fulfill its promise as the all-expense-paid Carnival cruise it was intended to be. And, when the economy collapses, Americans - purged of all delusions about individualism, liberty, and personal responsibility - will be thoroughly primed for servitude at the hands of their new international feudal lords.

A Fascinating Experiment: Music in Defense of Freedom?

For more than forty years, pop-culture has been used to implicitly and explicitly undermine the wit, wisdom, and wills of Western kiddie winkies via every imaginable mode of mass media. The effects are plain to see and– we suspect – the worst is yet to come. But in this era of “hope” we offer some.

A group of modern musicians and producers are committing a bit of reverse terrorism: taking one of the West’s mosts efficatious modes of self-destruction – pop-music - and aiming it at that which seeks most passionately to facilitate our destrucution from the outside: Militant Islam.

They are Weapons of Musical Defense and their first album, Imagine Jihad (Part 1) is now available for your listening and purchasing pleasure. We encourage you to give it a go.

More than just brilliant performance and production, WMD’s songs are lit up from the inside with substanative content, research, sources, and historical perspective; things you may find lacking in Kanye West’s or Miss Spears’ latest contributions. (But after all, girls - and everyone else evidently - just want to have fun!)

“Weapon of Musical Defense is a group of concerned rockers and rock stars,” their website explains. “After 9-11 we were horrified at the hate and exhortations to violence we read in the Koran so we began learning more about what Winston Churchill called ‘the religion of blood and war.’ We started writing songs and studied to be certain of the facts, all the time becoming more alarmed. Now we want to share our findings with a wider audience. Imagine Jihad is the first album to result from our work.”

All this, and quotes from Sir Winston to boot! We are agog.

As the West dutifully disarms, and Islam gleefully attacks, perhaps efforts such as this can inspire and inform a new generation that their’s is a heritage worth fighting for.

Happy Birthday Sir Winston!

After having searched exhaustively for a tribute worthy of the occassion of Sir Winston's 134th birthday, November 30, we were forced to conclude that there exists none superior to our own. Thus, in characteristic humility and grace, we present below our post of last year: The Nanny Who Saved Western Civilization.

An inspiring story, not of material rags to riches, but of one born into moral destitution, saved by an angel, and guided gently to moral courage of historic proportions.

Happy birthday dear friend.

Cheers,

Charlie


The Nanny Who Saved Western Civilization

Few pedigrees read as impressively: descendant of John Churchill, “the Duke of Marlborough,” by some accounts the greatest military leader Britain has ever produced; son of Randolph Churchill, a man of such political aptitude he was made England’s Chancellor of the Exchequer and Leader of the House of Commons simultaneously at the unheard of age of only 37; son of Jeaneatte Jerome Churchill, the beautiful American heiress whose favor was sought throughout Victorian high society. From this magnificent lineage emerged one Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill, born 30 November, 1874. Nonetheless, Sir Winston somehow managed to overcome all this and make something of himself!

You see the remainder of the story reveals that Sir Winston’s father was your standard issue upper-class twit whose ambition and pride drove him to make disastrous decisions leading to the destruction of his career and then, of course, the requisite excesses of alcohol, drugs, and ultimately death by syphilis in 1892 at the age of 48. His mother was a notorious adulteress whose legendary promiscuity saw her thrice married and ever scandal-ridden. Their marriage was a hushed and hurried affair as Jeanette had gotten pregnant prior to it, presumably by Lord Randolph but no one could be quite sure. To secure the nuptial, Jeanette’s father (Leonard Jerome, stock speculator and editor of the New York Times - need we say more!) bribed Lord Randolph with a “dowry” equivalent to roughly 2.5 million in present day American dollars.

As was the fashion in Victorian England, Lord and Lady Randolph Churchill completely ignored their two son’s – Winston the first, John the second (also believed sired by one other than Sir Randolph) – devoting their time to far more important matters of high society and career advancement. What time they did spend with young Winston was hurried, harried, exasperated, and fraught with contempt and irritation at their “little monster.”

Lord Randolph openly and regularly expressed his disapproval of and disappointment in young Winston –he thought the boy retarded – and maintained his paternal aversion until his dying day. That Sir Winston was never able to prove his worth to his ever-disapproving father was a source of profound pain for him throughout his life.

With this then we wonder from whence came the Sir Winston we know today; the embodiment of courage, character, conviction, righteous defiance, and the eloquent championing of “Christian Civilization?” Clearly the man was endowed by his Creator with innumerable gifts. But far too often – more often than is probably known – the story of such gifted individuals in circumstances such as young Sir Winston’s goes the route of Lord Randolph Churchill and not that of his heroic son.

The salvation of Sir Winston Churchill, and thus, we would argue, of Western Civilization some 66 years later, was a nice little old lady named Elizabeth Anne Everest. The consummate nanny of Victorian England, this plump, pleasant, quiet little woman was charged by Lord and Lady Randolph as wet nurse and keeper of our little monster.

From Sir Winston’s birth until his twentieth year, Mrs. Everest provided a steady regimen of love, understanding, faith, firm principles, gentle guidance, and Christian instruction. Her influence upon him is incalculable, however, in this inspiring tribute to Mrs. Everest, author Stephen Mansfield concludes,

“So it was that when the man some called the ‘Greatest Man of the Age,’ lay dying in 1965 at the age of ninety, there was but one picture that stood at his bedside. It was the picture of his beloved nanny, gone to be with her Lord some seventy years before.”

We strongly encourage you to read Mr. Mansfield’s tribute, particularly on the day of November 30, Sir Winston’s birthday. A day and a man likely few would distinguish from any other, were it not for a fussing little English nanny called, Mrs. Everest.

And so it begins...

The “Office of the President-Elect” has announced its plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 80 Percent by 2050. It would accomplish this through the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to “implement an economy-wide cap-and-trade program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.” This would “make the U.S. a leader on climate change.”

This would also make the U.S. a third world nation. Well why not, pretty much everyone else is!

The Heritage Foundation reports,

“This intrusive regulation will cost the American economy nearly $7 trillion dollars in lost GDP in just 20 years, and result in massive job losses. Heritage’s respected Center for Data Analysis estimates non-farm employment losses will exceed 800,000 in some years, and manufacturing jobs will plummet. Some industries would lose over half of their jobs. Government permits would be needed to expand small businesses and build homes, hospitals and schools. To add insult to injury, foreign competitors will not have to abide by these regulations, leaving American businesses at a disadvantage.”

America, this is a very real threat to your very real economy for a nebulous, unsubstantiated, and quite likely non-existent threat – global warming. You are already well down the road to socialism. Giving this degree of economic control to agencies of the government would pretty much cinch the deal. Will you give it all away so easily?

Sign the petition. Stop the EPA!

Cheers,

Charlie

um ... the war ... it's over

Perhaps you missed the three-inch, bold, all-caps headlines in newspapers across the globe? The Iraq war is over. Oh that's right, there weren't any headlines. And we expect none to come.

No need to thank us President Obama. You will be the troop-delivering hero you promised to be. Congrats! (Oh ...ditto Mr. Bush, the military etc. etc.)

President Bush to Pen Bush Tell-All Book

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Contact: Charlie at churchillsparrot@gmail.com

November 13, 2008 - Washington D.C. Outgoing, lame-duck, immensely unpopular, and quite possibly criminal President George W. Bush announced today that he has signed a multi-million dollar book deal with DNC Press to pen his autobiography, Confessions of a Silver-Spooned, Alcoholic, Neo-Nazi, Greed-Crazed Mad Man: George W. Bush Comes Clean. Co-authoring the book with Mr. Bush will be movie-moguls Michael Moore and Oliver Stone, along with nationally syndicated columnist, Maureen Dowd.

“After my meeting with President-elect Obama, I suddenly saw the error of my ways over the past eight years, in fact, throughout my entire lifetime,” said Bush in an oddly serene voice at his press conference announcing the book deal. “Brave souls before me have tried to tell the truth about me, but my jack-booted thugs and I shut them down. It’s time the American people know the full story.”

Bush previewed many of the explosive revelations to be made in the book: his lust for alcohol and cocaine, his murderous hatred of non-whites and the indigent, his collection of Gestapo uniforms, his tragic sexual obsession with Saddam Hussein, his scheme to undermine and destroy free-market capitalism, and just what the hell he was thinking with Harriet Meyers.

“I have much to answer for and I must be brought to justice,” declared Bush. “That’s why I have agreed to turn myself and my entire administration over to an Islamic court and accept whatever verdict Sharia law deems appropriate, should President Obama’s investigations come up short.”

Bush was referring to President-Elect Obama’s recent statements about his seeking to prosecute members of the Bush administration for green-lighting torture, as well as for other crimes that took place in the Bush White House.

“What I would want to do is to have my Justice Department and my Attorney General immediately review the information that’s already there and to find out - are there inquiries that need to be pursued,” said Obama of the investigations. “I would not want my first term consumed by what was perceived on the part of Republicans as a partisan witch hunt,” added Mr. Obama in his fair, judicious, and measured way. He concluded, however, that “nobody is above the law.” [A moment of silence please.]

“I sure do appreciate President-Elect Obama hooking me up with DNC Press and world-class writers like Mikey, Ollie, and Moe,” said Bush, tears streaming down his ashen face, disfigured by the weight of his many crimes against humanity. “Lord knows I couldn’t put a decent sentence together to save my life; which is why, I suppose, I’m the fix I’m in. I’m so ashamed!”

Proceeds from the sales of Confessions of a Silver-Spooned, Alcoholic, Neo-Nazi, Greed-Crazed Mad Man: George W. Bush Comes Clean will go to the United Auto Workers bail-out fund.

Veteran's Day 2008

"The men of Normandy had faith that what they were doing was right, faith that they fought for all humanity, faith that a just God would grant them mercy on this beachhead or on the next. It was the deep knowledge -- and pray God we have not lost it -- that there is a profound, moral difference between the use of force for liberation and the use of force for conquest. You were here to liberate, not to conquer, and so you and those others did not doubt your cause. And you were right not to doubt. You all knew that some things are worth dying for. One's country is worth dying for, and democracy is worth dying for, because it's the most deeply honorable form of government ever devised by man."

- Ronald Reagan, 40th anniversary of the D-Day invasion at Normandy, France

To our beloved American heroes, we, the free, thank you!
