Catholic Child Abuse – Left’s Double Standard Showing Again

One thing the self styled “progressive left” can be relied upon to deliver is …. (no, not election promies, don’t be silly) … hypocrisy.

Little Nicky Machiavelli and my chums at The Daily Stirrer have always been highly critical of the Roman Catholic Church’s attempts to sweep under the carpet cases of child abuse by its priests.

Child abuse is a terrible thing both when its involves the violation of a young child and when it relates to the seduction of a prepubescent girl by a middle aged man. Thus we deplore the Church’s cover up of their priests’ crimes and we also deplore cases in which a wealthy, famous man takes advantage of a thirteen year old girl.

It is here we part company with the “progressive left” because they seem to think if the seducer is an artist, a director of stunningly up-his-own-arse films and a supporter of the crackpot ideas of “progressive left” politics called Roman Polanski it is perfectly OK to commit statutory rape on an under age girl.

Not only are the “progressive left” supporting Polanski’s attempts to return to the USA thirty years after he fled American justice having entered a plead of guilty to the crime he was accused of, they are clamouring for a Presidential pardon for him.

Ah, but it is alright for Polanski to do such thinks. American leftie air-head, feminist and race hustler Whoopi Goldberg says “What Roman did was not rape rape.” No? Well what kind of rape was it?

Other stars supporting Polanski include Martin Scorsese, Kevin Costner, Susan SArandon and the Fuckwit Of Fuckwits Woody Allen. These people have sent a petition to Barack Obama on behalf of the director. Polanski, you see, was so talented, so special, mortal laws could not apply to such a genius. Yeah right.

Funny, I do not remember this group being so sympathetic towards Gary Glitter. I don’t remember them calling for clemency in the case of a footballer accused of seducing under age girls. I do not recall much support for actor and comedian Chris Langham when he was found to have been visiting child sex sites on the internet. What I do recall is the neo – nazi left howling for blood. No punishment was great enough for the perpetrators of these terrible crimes. In much the same way they are howling for the blood of Pope Benedict now evan as they demand our indulgence for the child – fucker Roman Polanski.

If we are to have rule of law one guiding principle must be honoured.

SAME RULES APPLY

A group that want to apply draconian laws to its opponents but exempt those with whom it sympathises from such rules has nothing to offer a democracy.

Immigration – The Elephant In The Election Room

There is a weird atmosphere developing in the nation as we wait for the official request for the dissolution of parliament that will signal the start of the election campaign proper. The subject that the mass of voters are most concerned with, immigration, is the one none of the political parties or their leaders want to talk about …

Read all Immigration – The Elephant In The Election Room at The Daily Stirrer.

The self styled “Progressive Left,” the most regressive and authoritarian faction of the Labour party may scream in outrage when polls predict a million or more people will vote BNP but if the main parties will not talk about the issues that concern the public, if they want to treat the electorate like small children who cannot be trusted to make up their own minds on sensitive issues, if they refuse to recognise that politicians serve the voters rather than vice versa what else do they expect to happen.

A quick re-read of early chapters in Rise And Fall Of The Third Reich will inform them of the inevitable fate of arrogant and elitist political establishments who take the dumb support of the populace for granted as they persue self interested policies.

Or have our political elite, in their Orwellian zeal for rewriting history already erased World War 2?

•”If the Party could thrust its hand into the past and say this or that even, it never happened—that, surely, was more terrifying than mere torture and death.”
– George Orwell, 1984, Book 1, Chapter 3

“And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth. ‘Who controls the past’ ran the Party slogan, ‘controls the future: who controls the present controls the past.'”
– George Orwell, 1984, Book 1, Chapter 3

The Sensible Party Must Oppose War On Free Speech

I’m a Liberal, always have been. Not a lib dem, not a “progressive liberal” but an ex member of that bunch of oddballs, weirdos, mavericks and tree huggers that always seemed to have the most sensible policies but never got any votes.

Yes, the people in the Monty Python election sketch who were the sensible party but got no votes at all.

What made me a liberal was a belief passed down by my ancestors in thinking for oneself and not being afraid to say out loud what one really thought.

Thus though I don’t suport UKIP I am appalled that one of their MEPs has been suspended for criticising the unelected head of EU foreign policy, Baroness Ashton.

Read what happened in Speaking With One Voice at Trixy’s blog. We blogged last year sometime before the EU elections on the proposal in front of the Europan Parliament to suspend members who opposed further integration of member states and erosion of national sovereignty.

How soon will we be blogging:
First they came for UKIP and I did not speak out…

Internet access as a human right?

“Almost four in five people around the world believe that access to the internet is a fundamental right, a poll for the BBC World Service suggests.
The survey – of more than 27,000 adults across 26 countries – found strong support for net access on both sides of the digital divide.

Countries such as Finland and Estonia have already ruled that access is a human right for their citizens.

International bodies such as the UN are also pushing for universal net access.”

Here is another example of how the Politically Correct Thought Police skew their case.

Just step back from this a moment and think it through. In most nations anyone who can afford the equipment needed to support internet access can access the internet.

The kind of nations that restrict internet access are not likely to change their position because of a BBC survey the outcome of which was determined by asking questions that prompted the required response.

The majority of people who do not have internet access have more urgent priorities such as getting enough food, adequate shelter and clean water to drink. They might also be concerned with the problem of dodging the guys with AK47s.

So when we look at it from that perspective lack of internet access is not such a big deal perhaps

Another Facebook Suicide

In a week in which the ever more fickle mainstream media have been heaping praise on Facebook simply because somebody who it either an idiot or an evil control freak is willing to pay around $25billion for this site that has never made a penny in profit despite its (very dubious) claims to have 600 million users worldwide and has no busimess model other than encouraging people to become addicted to the ‘virtual’ lifestyle it offers and thus abandon real life, we are saddened by this story of another Facebook suicide
