#DM7: Re: Oh THOSE Abuse Cases….

Posted on January 19, 2014 by A.P. Dillon

My latest went up at Da Tech Guy: Re: About Those Abuse Cases

———————-

On Monday, DaTechGuy wrote about the sexual abuse cases taking place in schools as highlighted by Stacy McCain:

Lately Stacy McCain has been doing a large series on sexual criminals. Yesterday he focused on Teachers

If you pay attention to the news, it’s hard to avoid the conclusion that America’s public schools are staffed by sex-crazed perverts

It’s not his first dive into these waters but this time Glenn Reynolds linked with the line:

Obviously, we need to end mandatory celibacy and let high school teachers marry.

Now this is a story we’ve been covering for a while, but as we’ve also had a real bump in readership in 2013 & 2014 so for new readers at DaTechGuy Blog let me acquaint you with some stories we covered and & posts we did that you might have missed on this subject over the years:

The Guardian April 29th 2010 Continue reading →

McIntyre (D- NC 07) To Retire

Posted on January 9, 2014 by A.P. Dillon

The news came last night, Mike McIntyre won’t be running again.

Earthquake in #NCPol MT @politico #Breaking: Democratic Reps. Mike McIntyre (N.C.) … retiring, according to multiple Democratic sources.

Might be just as well, because he barely beat Rouzer before the Obamacare trainwreck hit back in 2012. That race was pretty expensive (5th in the nation) and was so close Rouzer asked for a recount. McIntyre emerged and won by 654 votes. It’s doubtful McIntyre wants to repeat that and be on the losing end – especially since according to OpenSecrets.org, it seems like the money faucet has turned off for him in the last year.

#DM7: A Primer On The Left In NC (PT III)

Posted on January 5, 2014 by A.P. Dillon

My weekly column at Da Tech Guy is up here: A Primer On The Left In NC (PT III)

_____________________

In Part II of A Primer on the Left in NC, we looked at the leader of the “grassroots” Moral Monday movement, Reverend William Barber. This week, it’s important to learn about the start of Moral Monday and their tactics because, as I predicted, it’s spreading. Just this past week, Barber met with various unnamed activists from 12 other states with the intent to help organize Moral Monday’s elsewhere. One of the attendees was Democratic state Sen. Hank Sanders of Alabama. I view this as the reaction of the organized Left realizing how much power is held by the individual states. Too many for the comfort of the Left are under Republican leadership. Continue reading →

Like a Rash… Moral Monday Spreading

Posted on December 18, 2013 by A.P. Dillon

First, an obligatory I told you so.

From the Atlanta Progressive News, emphasis added:

(APN) ATLANTA — Since August 19, 2013, a “Moral Monday” movement has been building in Georgia to take back our State government from the interests of corporations and wealthy people. The Moral Monday Georgia Coalition, which includes people of faith and citizens of Georgia, has been meeting every two weeks to plan for progressive actions during the 2014 Legislative Session.

#DM7 Article: I’d Like You All To Shut Up.

Posted on December 15, 2013 by A.P. Dillon

My latest article at Da Tech Guy, “I’d Like You All To Shut Up.”, is now available in full below.
——————————

Today I’d like you all to shut up. Yes, I just said shut up. I’d like to open with a flashback from Andrew Klavan from four years ago:

Shut Up.
It’s the main tactic of the Left and has been for some time now. A tactic I and others have dubbed “Shutuppery”. Shutuppery, like most silencing tactics, has its roots in Political Correctness. For those of you not familiar with the story about how Shutuppery was employed on yours truly, let me summarize for you.

Hagan Sprinting From Her Record On #Obamacare

Posted on November 12, 2013 by A.P. Dillon

If you want to see an epic example of what lengths a politician will go to in order to save their own rear, one has to look no further than North Carolina’s Kay Hagan. Hagan’s camp is doing a total about-face out of pure desperation.

Act of pure political desperation: @kayhagan is tryng to hide that she cast the deciding vote for ObamaCare: http://t.co/2TXvsVwpuH #ncsen

True Believer

Hagan is one of the true believers in the President’s “Affordable Healthcare Act” that the public has dubbed Obamacare. Now she’s on the ropes and unlike during the government shut down, Hagan can’t just disappear. Continue reading →
