    America: Worth Fighting For
    FTA:
    Today, we conservatives talk a lot about political correctness, and how the Left is undermining the country. What do we mean? It helps to get specific …
    … and I was aroused by two items today in the Daily Caller, especially one of them. In Walla Walla, Wash., there is an institution called Whitman College. It is not named after Walt Whitman but after Marcus and Narcissa Whitman, a couple who were missionaries in the Pacific Northwest and were killed by Indians in 1847.
    Until now, the school nickname has been the Missionaries. But missionaries are evidently deemed bad, so the nickname has to go. Until now, the college newspaper has been the Whitman Pioneer. But pioneers are bad, so the name will have to go.
    Undoubtedly, there have been bad missionaries and bad pioneers. But some of the best, bravest, and most admirable people who ever lived have been missionaries. And pioneers.
    What is happening at Whitman College is what some of us mean when we say that the Left is taking our country from us. Warping its meaning, turning truth on its head. Making day night, and night day.
    The second item that caught my eye had to do with a sorority at Dartmouth: which has had to cancel its Kentucky Derby party, because the Kentucky Derby is bad.
    No, it isn’t. It’s a pleasant tradition with funny hats and fast horses. It is not a cross burning, no matter how much people want it to be, and would will it to be.
    Andrei Sakharov said he always wanted to talk about specific, flesh-and-blood political prisoners rather than “human rights.” Similarly, it’s probably helpful to talk about specific actions undertaken by the Left, rather than political correctness in general.
    I have no doubt that young Americans are routinely taught that missionaries and pioneers were the functional equivalents of the Klan. This is a huge injustice to young people, the country, and the truth.
    Hillary Clinton has taken a pledge never, ever to say “illegal immigrant.” She, and other Democrats, won’t say “All lives matter.” They won’t say “radical Islam.”
    This is madness, and not harmless madness either. “Political correctness” is too benign a term for what the Left is doing to us. We either stand up to it or submit, and submission is a lousy way to go.

    Read more at: http://www.nationalreview.com/corner
    Also..............please remember when you read the media accounts of (almost any example) the NC bathroom law (see "anti-LGBT") or Voter ID laws you always see the term...........extreme
    "Extreme" is just the Left's way of marginalizing those with whom it disagrees................. Their opponents are never reasonable
    Don't fall for such obvious BS

    First-quarter economy looks bleaker by the day

    CNBC.com

    Some economists now see first-quarter growth as negligible, and it could easily turn out to be negative.

     

    Economists shaved already weak growth forecasts by a few more tenths Friday, after wholesale inventories fell 0.5 percent month over month in February, much more than the anticipated 0.1 percent decline. January was also revised down by 0.4 percent.

     

    The closely watched Atlanta Fed GDPNow model now shows first-quarter growth tracking at 0.1 percent, compared to a 0.4 percent estimate earlier in the week.

     

    JPMorgan economists now forecast the economy only expanded by 0.2 percent in the first quarter, from 0.7 percent.

     

     

     

     

    Added: Don't worry...they'll NEVER let the numbers go down to negative, and risk having to use the "R" word in an election year.

    America’s million-doctor shortage is right around the corner

    The doctor is disappearing in America.

     

    And by most projections, it’s only going to get worse — the U.S. could lose as many as 1 million doctors by 2025, according to a Association of American Medical Colleges report.

     

    Primary-care physicians will account for as much as one-third of that shortage, meaning the doctor you likely interact with most often is also becoming much more difficult to see.

    Do We Have Any Bernie Sanders Supporters Among Us?

    Bernie Sanders is Right About One Thing

     

    AP_136453449773-e1460065110955.jpg

     

     

     

    .

    If there is anything as false as Hillary’s “love and light” and “I’m just like you!” persona, it’s the absurd notion that she is in any way qualified to be president.

     

    This woman has turned a marriage based on purely political reasons into a lackluster, scandal-ridden career, and wants you to vote for her. Because it’s time for a female, and hey, everyone, she’s a Clinton!

     

    It’s amusing to see the Left implode a bit, since, let’s be honest, what has happened between their candidates hasn’t been very dramatic. Watching two white geriatrics debate is sleep-inducing. But on Tuesday and Wednesday, Hillary and Bernie decided to take shots at one another.

     

    n Tuesday, Hillary insisted Bernie Sanders wasn’t qualified to be president. Sanders’ response on Wednesday included the following, as reported by The Daily Beast:

    She has been saying lately that she thinks that I am not qualified to be president.

    Well, let me, let me just say in response to Secretary Clinton: I do
    n’t believe that she is qualified, i
    f she is, through her super-PAC, taking tens of millions of dollars in special interest funds. I don’t think that you are qualified if you get $15 million from Wall Street through your super-PAC.

    I don’t think you are qualified if you have voted for the disastrous war in Iraq. I don’t think you are qualified if you have supported virtually every disastrous trade agreement which has cost us millions of decent paying jobs.

     

     

     

    While Bernie is right about Hillary’s cozy, hypocritical ties to Wall Street, he flatly contradicts himself with the last statement. Sanders supported both John Kerry, who voted for the Iraq AUMF, and Barack Obama, who voted for those trade deals. While these are good soundbites for the social justice warrior hipsters in his audience, there’s actually much more which disqualifies his opponent.

     

    • Her scandal-ridden, unethical years as an attorney, including being fired from the Watergate investigation.
    • Her scandal-ridden years in Arkansas before the White House (see: Whitewater).
    • The Clinton scandals once in the White House, such as Travelgate and Filegate.
    • Her disastrous healthcare proposal while First Lady.
    • Her tenure as Senator from New York, which she was not qualified for and during which she accomplished nothing.
    • Her time as Secretary of State, which, besides scandals, accomplished nothing.
    • The Benghazi scandal, which does makes a difference, since 4 Americans died under her watch.
    • The Clinton Foundation funds scandal.
    • The ongoing, FBI-investigated email scandal.

     

    And that’s just a start. As we all know, Hillary doesn’t possess anything but the correct last name, the correct gender, a ruthless demeanor, and a lying disposition.

     

    The woman has had her sights set on the White House – beyond that of First Lady – for quite some time. Even Bill Clinton said during his 1992 presidential campaign: “‘You get two for the price of one,’ indicating Hillary Clinton would act as his co-president.” This has been in the works for years, and Bill couldn’t be more excited, but that just might be due to the interns he would encounter as First Guy.

    But then, such hypocrisy can often be found at the intersection of megacorporations and SJWs.

     

     

    Reminder: The law is not antigay as is being spun,

     

    its about bathrooms.

    The Panama Papers

    REMINDER: Panama Papers Are About Government Corruption, Not ‘Tax Evasion.’

     

    “In general, this is why politicians have off-shore accounts, to hide wrong-doing, and not just to ‘evade taxes.’”

     

     

    The political class wants to talk about tax evasion, because then they don’t have to talk about how corrupt the political class is.
