When wilt thou save the people?
Oh God of mercy when?
Flowers of thy heart
O God are they
Let them not pass like weeds away
Not kings and lords but nations,
Not thrones and crowns
But men
God save the people
Shall crime bring crime forever
Strength aiding still the strong?
Is it thy will, O Father
That men shall toil
For wrong?
Oh, no, say thy mountains
No, say thy skies
Man’s clouded sun shall brightly rise
And songs be heard instead of sighs
God save the people!
Oh, God save the people
For thine they are
Thy children as thy angels fair
Save the people
From despair
God save the people!

New Orleans City Council is cobsidering a new ordinance that would require every developer building new residences in ‘desireable’ areas in town to devote 12% of said residential soacevto subdidized housing.
The proposal is by a local Prog NGO which deals with how to get the nonproductive into housing paid for by someone else. As NOLA’s become a party paradise housing prices have skyrocketed. A lot of that’s due to flood insurance being sky-high post-K and financing agencies refusing to finance any construction without full flood insurance on the property.
Post-K much of the old projects were torn down and replaced with modern ‘multi-income’ housing that had a percentage dedicated to subsidized housing. Now these subsidized units are starting to hit a provision built into their funding that, ten years after they were built, the subsidized units would revert to market price. The residents, unable to secure gainful employment in the last ten years (no doubt due to the evil machinations of Da Man), are facing homelessness.
We are being treated to the usual litany of ‘it ain’t their fault’ excuses, Hizzonnah Da Mayor is bemoaning the lack of educational and well-paying jobs in the Usual Community, local Usual Fed Reps are using codewords to blame it on Trump, and the little birdies are sitting by wondering when the next morsels will be dropped into their open beaks.
The city fathers are desperate to stuff projectees into ‘desirable’ neighborhoods (not the ones they live in of course) so that the folks who’ve been paying for the subsidizees’ food, education, medication, clothes, rent, you name it, for decades can pay to see the fruits of their labors smack in the back or side yard.
Stupidity is best viewed from afar.

Some say “God” might reside in a computer…the Deus ex Machina. Among those individuals are those divining climate with computer-based general circulation models. This has generated a belief system to the effect that all variables that drive global climate at all time scales have been identified, that they have been quantified as to individual contribution and interactions, and that chaotic variability is foreseeable. At the current state of scientific knowledge, such belief is intellectual hubris masquerading as achieved scientific endeavor.
Makes me want to start fiddling around with Fractint and Winfract again. Nothing shows the truth of chaos theory (sensitive dependence upon initial conditions), and the hubris of these folks, like changing one variable in the formula by .0002 and seeing the difference in the final resulting image. Fractals were my hobby when I was 20 and only had an Intel 486 SX. Its why I can understand this blather.

Yeah, LSU came up with a substance that’s used to cure meats and is harmless (almost typed ‘hamless’) to humans but deadly to swine. Problem is it’s horribly hygroscopic and they can’t find a way to get it to the hogs before the stuff deactivates.
I can remember the solemn promises from the government that the various poisons they developed to control coyotes and other range pest back in the 60/70s were harmless. We had dead eagles, bobcats, mountain liobs, you name it, all over from the harmless poisons.
We’re still shooting and trapping them, that proves immediately effective, and makes for several nice meals per pig.

Maxine Waters:
This 13-term Beltway swamp queen from California and past chair of the Congressional Black Caucus walked away with a slap on the wrist from the toothless House Ethics Committee in 2012 after being charged with multiple ethics violations related to her meddling in minority-owned OneUnited Bank.
The banks’ executives donated $12,500 to Mad Maxine’s congressional campaigns. Her husband, Sidney Williams, was an investor in one of the banks that merged into OneUnited. As stockholders, they profited handsomely from their relationship with the bank.
And vice versa. After Waters’ office personally intervened and lobbied the Treasury Department in 2008, the financial institution received $12 million in federal TARP bailout money — despite another government agency concluding that the bank operated “without effective underwriting standards” and engaged “in speculative investment practices.” Top bank executive Kevin Cohee squandered money on a company-financed Porsche and a Santa Monica, California, beachfront mansion. After the federal bailout of Fannie/Freddie, OneUnited’s stock in the government-sponsored enterprises plunged to a value estimated at less than $5 million. Only through Waters’ intervention was OneUnited able to secure an emergency meeting with the Treasury and its then-Secretary Henry Paulson.
Waters’ government cronyism earned her a “Most Corrupt member of Congress” designation from the left-wing Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington.

Is James O’Keefe About To Smoke CNN? Tells Hannity He’s Set To Release “Hundreds of Hours” Of Newsroom Footage “Wikileaks Style”
http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2017-02-21/james-okeefe-about-smoke-cnn-tells-hannity-hes-set-release-hundreds-hours-newsroom-f
James O’Keefe of Project Veritas is set to unleash holy hell Thursday on #FakeNews network CNN. Well, he didn’t exactly say it was CNN, but it was heavily implied. Apparently the network has a mole…
O’Keefe is known for undercover sting operations which have led to such bombshells as the DNC’s paid agitator network, the outing of “DisruptJ20” / Antifa organizers which took place at comet ping pong – and netted three arrests (including a suspected pedophile), and most recently New Hampshire election fraud.

I understand Stefan’s points, and many are valid. Others not so much. “Young boy” could refer to a late teen-aged homosexual. The term “boys” is very common among gay men. Not to digress too far, I met the CTH group at a gay man’s blog – hillbuzz.org. He talked about the “boys” or “boyz” all the time.
Questions – were these video/audio tapes recorded several years ago?
Is it possible that Milo may have changed his point of view somewhat since then?
Was some of it bravado? Was some of it the result of coping with early sexual molestation?
I think Stefan parses words a bit thinly also, such as making a distinction between the phrases “lost my virginity” (which would be the common phrase), and “had my virginity taken”. Another was “taking drugs”, and “being fed drugs” (or something like that).

I agree with everything you said. I argued some of the same points when the allegations against Milo first came out.
Where I strongly agree with Stefan are two points. Milo is giving mixed messages to teens who are being sexually abused while encouraging the mind set of abusers that their victims really enjoy what is happening and Milo should turn in the priest who abused him.
As to the men at parties and “very young boys” I find that phrase disturbing. One of my best friends was a gay man, he was the “boy” in relationships as he was young and petite, he was not a minor but people in his circle referred to young men as boys. Making the distinction of “very young boys” is to me disturbing.
If Milo is so emotionally unbalanced to believe that he was the predator at age 13 I do not know that he would have as a teenager or young twenty something seen other very young boys (teenagers) as victims.
I stand behind Milo and see this attack as one against who Milo is rather than an attack against him supporting pedophiles. I think Milo is damaged and has put that damage out of his mind in order to succeed at life. He is a force to be reckoned with against the Leftist because of the followers he is taking away from them but more importantly Milo is a danger because he is making a younger, hipper, more liberal audience think for the first time in their lives rather than simply put on pussy hats and call themselves virtuous.
All we need to do is look at people who really did make pedophile friendly remarks who are given a free pass in order to know exactly what is happening here.
CPAC was the last straw. The Establishment Right could not have Milo legitimized by being the keynote speaker with Trump and Pence present at the gathering. That would have given Milo too much power.
LikeLiked by 1 person

From a friend on Facebook:
“Milo, like his book, for which I hope he finds a publisher, is Dangerous. He is dangerous because he know things, things most people would rather pretend don’t exist, things we know only indirectly by reading such books as “City of Night” or “The Thief’s Journal”. He is a kind of swamp creature who has come up out of the mire and speaks to us of danger, He says things we know are true but fear to acknowledge. He warns us against the darkness, a darkness he knows so well, oozing up to infect our politics, personal and business relations, previously sunlit areas of our lives. He speaks the truth without mercy and mercilessly has the Left brought him down, aided by the fear of conservatives who prefer to think that the dark cannot invade their sunlit world.
“But it can and it has. Berkeley was one more installment of our slow motion kristallnacht, and now it has drawn the blood of its target instead of merely that of hapless motorists in the wrong place at the wrong time.
“I have reviewed the transcripts of the video used against him and while it is difficult to watch and to contemplate, It is clear he did not advocate pedophilia, as has been claimed by his detractors. He didn’t even advocate ephebophilia but explained the rationale for it too clearly for the squeamish. People who wrestle with monsters can be mistaken for monsters themselves — and can be easily characterized as monsters by the enemy — but Milo is not a monster, he is a messenger who has brought a message we do not want to hear. And you know what happens to messengers who bring unwelcome warnings.
“I don’t know how Milo can extricate himself from this but I hope he does. If he cannot, the next target is Bannon and after Bannon, Trump.”

He asked me yesterday again about it. I said, “We’re not ever going to have an argument about the veracity of the Bible, or of Christ, or of Christianity. Watch me work, and you have. My command is to love everyone, actively — and you see that. If I ever stop doing that, tell me.”
My golden tongue is never going to convince him that what I believe about the Bible is true. It’s why I quit arguing with folks about religion, politics, or society.
God willing, my actions will.
This dude only works two or so days a week. Super intelligent guy. Both his feet are broken. Why? Because he has such bad seizures that his feet curl up so hard that they break bones in them. I saw them, with his socks off. He showed me. Both feet, broken and swollen. He can no longer drive a car. He used to fly small planes. I prayed for him last night. I hope you folks do the same.
He remains cheerful, outwardly. You have to be, when you’re a server at a high-end restaurant.
He needs evidence that God can do anything. I’m evidence. Me.
Yesterday he said, “Remember me.”
I said, “George Carlin said that Christians often say ‘God can throw a boat over a fence!’ — God can heal the blind, the deaf, the dumb, the leprous, and even the epileptic.”

Not so odd. Made to sound odd (Remember what we talked about earlier?)
First, it isn’t clear if the word spoken is “was”. Even if it is crystal clear, what does it mean?
“Let me say it __ my great privilege to serve as Vice President for the 45th President of the United States. And the President directed me to go to Munich and to come here to Brussels with a very specific message. To go to Munich to the Munich security conference and make it very clear, as I do so again today at NATO’s headquarters, that the United States is expressing strong support for NATO, even as we challenge NATO and we challenge our allies to evolve to the new and widening challenges and further meet their responsibilities, uh, in this ever changing, ever complicated world of threats. With regard to the EU, the President also directed me to come here to Brussels and I had the great privilege of meeting with leaders of the European Union throughout the morning and, uh, to express the desire of the United States to continue, continue cooperation and partnership with the European Union. We respect the determination of the people of Great Britain, uh, as manifested in BREXIT, and we respect the judgement of the peoples of Europe in the European Union, and uh, as I said today through many leaders, we look forward to working, uh, across the channel with all parties in the years ahead on behalf (I think) of peace and prosperity.”
Keep in mind he is speaking off the cuff here. Even if the word is “was”, it is easy to understand that he may have meant to use the word “is”. Either that, or the word he used was “is”. [INSERT ADD: I can imagine he was thinking, ‘I was privileged to become Vice President and serve the 45th President …’ I’m a visual thinker, and can imagine that I saw in my mind the day I was sworn in as VP.] I think it is preposterous to insinuate that the VP is disloyal to the President. Unnecessarily so. Now, I said it, and I swore I wouldn’t. I disagree wholeheartedly with the post, and I HATE conspiracy theories – especially ones that hang on a thread, like this one does.
