The Occupy Wall Street freaks are set to ramp-up more disruption on May 1st. May 1st, also known as "May Day," used to be an "innocent" day of fun and doing friendly things for your neighbors. Not anymore.
Now May Day is being high-jacked and corrupted by the OWS crowd. Here is some of what they are planning for tomorrow:
Occupy Wall Street demonstrators, whose anti-greed message spread worldwide during an eight-week encampment in Lower Manhattan last year, plan marches across the globe tomorrow calling attention to what they say are abuses of power and wealth.
Organizers say they hope the coordinated events will mark a spring resurgence of the movement after a quiet winter. Calls for a general strike with no work, no school, no banking and no shopping have sprung up on websites in Toronto, Barcelona, London, Kuala Lumpur and Sydney, among hundreds of cities in North America, Europe and Asia.
In New York, Occupy Wall Street will join scores of labor organizations observing May 1, traditionally recognized as International Workers’ Day. They plan marches from Union Square to Lower Manhattan and a “pop-up occupation” of Bryant Park on Sixth Avenue, across the street from Bank of America’s Corp.’s 55-story tower.
“We call upon people to refrain from shopping, walk out of class, take the day off of work and other creative forms of resistance disrupting the status quo,” organizers said in an April 26 e-mail.
Here's the ad for the rally on the Golden Gate Bridge:
"Occupy The Bridge" has their own little blog on WordPress. Here it is.
In this article from the Occupy The Bridge blog, you can see that their plans have not turned out the way they had originally planned (emphasis mine):
Since the conditions for the action will not be met, we are no longer
organizing to shut down the bridge. As always, any action taken by the
workers at their workplace or against their employers will be met with
our support and solidarity. Although we will no longer be organizing a
bridge shutdown on May 1, we encourage all individuals, labor activists,
and supporters to stand with workers on the picket lines at the ferry
and bus terminals and any other locations they attempt to shut down.
These workers are among many in the public sector whose jobs and
benefits are being attacked. They deserve our full support.
A General Strike will not just occur at one workplace or one
thoroughfare but throughout the whole Bay Area. There will be May Day
worker and student protests and strikes in Oakland, San Francisco, small
and large U.S. cities, and around the world. The status quo is
unacceptable and May Day actions will demonstrate that the working class
is no longer willing to abide by it.
Just because they are no longer planning to "occupy the bridge," this doesn't mean that they are not intending to cause problems for the rest of us, the REAL 99%. (emphasis mine):
On May 1, workers and students throughout the country will walk out of
their jobs and schools in an unprecedented General Strike. As a part of
this day of action, thousands of nurses in Northern California will be
striking Sutter hospitals. ILWU Local 10 will also be shutting down the
Port of Oakland for eight hours in honor of the historic May Day
struggle for the eight-hour working day. There will be protests in
Oakland, including a mass march for immigrant rights and an evening
convergence on Oscar Grant Plaza.
Sounds like "fun," right?
Sounds expensive. It also sounds like these people don't care who their actions affect as long as THEY get what THEY think is OWED to them (which is typical of the vast majority of union workers).
Stay tuned.

This video is intended as a tribute to Andrew Breitbart. It is a compilation of many clips from across YouTube. There are clips of some of his speeches, on-the-street interviews, television interviews, and more.
I've been working on this video since a couple days after Andrew's sudden and untimely death on March 1, 2012 at the age of 43. I had a great amount of difficulty editing this video because there were simply too many excellent things that came out of Andrew's mouth every time he spoke. This made it extremely difficult to eliminate very much of the content I had gathered.
I also think that I didn't really want to finish this video because as long as I had it to work on, Andrew was still kind of "here."
I'm just a news and political nerd with a computer who has a couple of YouTube channels, a blog, a Facebook account, and a Twitter account. I never met Andrew. I respected him greatly and I feel the void that his death has left in the arena of conservative media.
It is apparent that there will never be another Conservative Warrior like Andrew Breitbart.
In honor of Andrew's tradition of re-tweeting the hateful tweets that littered his Twitter feed, I've decided that I'm not going to moderate the comments underneath this video on YouTube (unless there are threats of any kind toward others). Normally under my videos I eliminate what I call the "waste of time" comments because I just get sick and tired of reading all the hateful crap that too many losers on YouTube feel the need to share with the world. Under this video, I'm going to let the words of the morons speak for themselves...as Andrew did when he re-tweeted the hate directed at him on Twitter.
Thank you for all you did for our country, Andrew. You are missed.
I just came across this song/video on the interwebs and it feels like I'd be doing a disservice if I didn't include it. Below is the description underneath the video on YouTube.
This is a song and video tribute for the most inspirational conservative media figure in blogging history. It's difficult to say goodbye. So we won't.
Breitbart is here, and he will always be here.

President Obama made a dumb joke (one of many) at the White House Correspondent's Dinner in D.C. Saturday night about pit-bulls and Sarah Palin.
Here's the video:

If you think President Obama is protecting the United States, think again. Irrefutable PROOF is contained in this documentary.
I'm pretty sure you'll be a little upset at exactly WHO Obama has invited into his Administration and into the White House.
Obama is either a complete and utter ignorant moron or he is an undeniable enemy of this country.

I've recently created this new channel on YouTube because of some problems I was having on my old channel. On my old channel I had over 300 subscribers and had uploaded over 200 videos. (Due to the problems I was having on that old channel, I'm no longer uploading any new videos to it so subscribing to that old channel would be a waste of your time. I only provided that link so that you could see that I'm not a "newbie" to YouTube. Thank you.)

If you support Sarah Palin, in any way, we have a petition or two for you to sign. You need to know your name, your email address, and where you live.
So far, we have one for Californians and we have one for everyone else in the USA (including Californians) to sign. These petitions will be presented TO SARAH. Not to the GOP. Not to the FEC. Not to an election board. TO Sarah. Show her you support her and please sign the petition(s) that apply to you. What Sarah decides to do after she receives our signatures is entirely up to her.
Sarah recently expressed doubt that she had the necessary grassroots support to be a viable candidate. Show her that she does (whether she enters the race at any stage or not).

The one year anniversary of Ann Barnhardt's infamous koran burning video was on April 3rd. I have to admit (sheepishly), I almost completely missed it.
Thankfully, Ann remembered. How could she not? Life-altering events in one's own life tend to stand out more for the person that endures them. Here's what she posted on her blog (Due to all of Ann's posts eventually completely disappearing from her blog, I've copied her post in it's entirety - including the videos - the emphasis added is mine):
One Year Later, And I Still Haven't Been Killed
Posted by Ann Barnhardt - April 3, AD 2012 10:20 PM MST
Come on, islam. It's been a whole YEAR as of tonight and not a single one of you has made even the slightest attempt to kill me. I gave you my home address. I burned your satanic political/pedophilic manifesto and verbally tinkled all over mohamed, the fake pagan moon deity and everyone stupid and/or evil enough to fall for the biggest con in human history. Did I mention that I gave you my HOME ADDRESS? Yeah, I'm still here. Still waiting for you boys to take this "next level", as the young folks say.
And . . . nothing. Just a couple of death threats from a couple of musloids with family trees that look like the yellow line on I-70 in Western Kansas. Long and straight, that is.
Am I surprised? Not really. Islam is all a con, has only ever been a con, and only ever will be a con. When faced with ONE LITTLE GIRL who marches under the War Standard of Jesus Christ, an entire political cult of 1.2 billion people crumples and folds like a cheap suit. But I'm not done yet. In fact, I'm just getting warmed up. My goal is total and complete victory, as in the complete extermination of the political cult of islam from the face of the earth. This world isn't big enough for both of us. 1400 years is 1400 years too long. Satan and some child-raping, goat-humping mental defective started it, and BY GOD I'm gonna fight to finish it, one way or another, in this life or the next.
After a year, the only thing I would change is my mis-crediting of the "piss Christ" photograph to Robert Mapplethorpe when it was in fact an Andres Serrano image. Yeah, I wasn't rock-solid on my late 20th century homoerotic photographers. What's the matter with me? I know, I know.
Besides that, I have to say that this is aging quite well.
Oh, and Lindsey Graham STILL hasn't come out of the men's room. Heh.
If you've never seen those two videos, please do so.
Yes. Ann has guts. Ann doesn't back down from a fight. In fact, if you've never seen someone address a death threat with directions to their front door, read THIS. Here's one little nugget from her response to the coward that threatened her:
Just do me one favor. PLEASE wear body armor. I have some new ammunition that I want to try out, and frankly, close-quarter body shots without armor would feel almost unsporting from my perspective. That and the fact that I'm probably carrying a good 50 I.Q. points on you makes it morally incumbent upon me to spot you a tactical advantage.
However, being that you are a miserable, trembling coward, I realize that you probably are incapable of actually following up on any of your threats without losing control of your bowels and crapping your pants while simultaneously sobbing yourself into hyperventilation.
She's still got the directions to her doorbell listed on her website...from the north AND the south. See? Not only is she ballsy and smart, she's thoughtful too.
If you don't have the time to watch the videos right now, I've transcribed some of the "highlights" from the first video. It was hard to pick which parts I wanted to include or where to stop transcribing - it's all so good! I eventually just stopped with the transcribing because I could transcribe the entire thing and this post is plenty long already. Maybe another day.
This is how video #1 begins:
Hello, my name is Ann Barnhardt and I am apparently one of the very, very last people left in western civilization who possesses any quantity of brains and balls simultaneously. I saw that Senator Lindsey Graham appeared on Face the Nation this morning and said the following when asked by Bob Schieffer if there was anything that could be done about Americans burning the koran. Quote: 'Yeah, I wish we could find some way to hold people accountable. Free speech is a great idea but we're in a war. During World War II you had limits on what you could say if it would inspire the enemy. Any time we can push back here in America against actions like this that put our troops at risk, we ought to do it.' Unquote.
Lindsey Graham is a Republican and if John McCain had been elected president in 2008, Lindsey Graham would be the Attorney General of the United States today. Remember this as I go forward.
Let's take Graham's words, sentence by sentence. First sentence, quote: 'Yeah, I wish we could find some way to hold people accountable.' Unquote. 'Hold people accountable?' For what? For exercising their Constitutionally-protected and divinely-ordained right to freedom of thought, freedom of speech, freedom of expression, and freedom of religion?
Hey jackass, have you not read the 1st Amendment to the Constitution of the United States? Here, let me read it for you: 'Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.'
So, what Lindsey Graham wants to do is elevate the totalitarian political system masquerading as a religion, called 'islam,' to a status which supersedes and overrides the 1st Amendment to the Constitution and thus places it in a position of specially-protected legal superiority wherein, criticism of islam or failure to show proper and sufficient deference and honor for islamic texts, is a crime.
Hey Lindsey, you jackass, you know what that's called? It's called 'shariah.' What the hell is wrong with you? I'm gonna burn a koran here in a moment. Lindsey, why don't you come and hold me accountable, player? Go ahead. Have me arrested for exercising my 1st Amendment rights. Drag me before Congress and hold me to account. Do it. Nothing would make me happier. I would relish the opportunity to explain to you how exactly it is that we do things in the United States of America. If you want to pick a fight sir, you go right ahead. But understand that if you pick a fight with me, the only way it ends is with you sobbing in the men's room.
Next, Ann challenges Senator Graham some more:
If you want to go head-to-head with someone of intellectual parity, I'm your Huckleberry. Come after me. Debate me.
And, some more:
Have you never seen the Warner Brothers cartoons, yes that's right, Looney Tunes, produced during the war that ruthlessly mocked and degraded the Germans, Italians, and Japanese? The informal prohibition during the war was on speech that was defeatist or conciliatory towards the enemy, which is exactly what you are engaging in, you stupid, stupid jackass.
Again:
It sure sounds to me like you have decided that the United States government is aligned with islam against the people of the United States who do not show sufficient deference and respect for islam. Senator Graham, you can take your dhimmitude and shove it up your ass. And, don't you dare accuse patriotic Americans, who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights, of putting our troops at risk.
The only thing that is putting our troops at risk are the suicidal, defeatist rules of engagement which prevent our brave soldiers from actually fighting and defeating the enemy. You hang our boys out on the lines of battle and then refuse to give them ammunition, refuse to allow them to engage the enemy without permission from a flipping attorney, and then refuse to allow them to engage 'civilians' while fighting a force that is 100% comprised of civilians. How DARE you accuse us of putting our troops at risk?
Watch the videos for more. If you enjoyed what I transcribed, you'll enjoy the videos.
I don't know if Ann ever heard from Senator Lindsey Graham. I seriously doubt that she ever did.
Happy Anniversary, Ann! Glad you're still with us.

The first time I saw Dr. Carol Swain was when she was testifying on Capitol Hill as a part of the same panel as Comedy Central un-funnyman Stephen Colbert. Colbert was there to "Sarcastically Argue for Farm Workers" before a House Judiciary Subcommittee & basically embarrass himself, which he did.
Dr. Carol Swain was there to address issues concerning immigration and migrant workers, and she was impressive. I was an immediate fan. I wished that Colbert could have been kicked out of that hearing so that I could have heard more from Dr. Swain. I felt bad for Dr. Swain that she'd been invited to partake in that disgusting example of Congressional abuse of our governmental system.....and, that was the FIRST time I'd ever seen or heard of her!
That hearing on Capitol Hill took place in September of 2010. Since then, I've learned that Dr. Swain was a high school drop-out, a teenaged mother, had attempted suicide, and is now a professor at Vanderbilt University, author, and is an extremely accomplished woman. Over the past year or so she's been a contributor on FOX News, although, I wish she was on more often. I've read any news stories that I've seen about her and I'm a subscriber to her YouTube channel where she'll upload random interviews, forums, or speeches in which she partakes.
Today, I received the gem below in my email inbox from Carol Swain's YouTube channel. It is a 6-minute mini-documentary about her life that appears to be part of a longer documentary entitled "How Can America Survive? The Coming Economic Earthquake" from Truth in Action Ministries. This documentary is set to air in 2 parts on the weekends of April 29 and May 6, 2012 on Truth in Action Ministries (formerly Coral Ridge Ministries).
Dr. Carol Swain is an inspiration and should be held up as an example for everyone in this country. She embodies that "can do" spirit that all Americans should respect and try to emulate, myself included.
Please, take six minutes and watch the video below, then share it with everyone you know. "Dr. Carol Swain" should be a household name. I wish everyone could know about this amazing woman.
Watch the Dr. Carol Swain mini-documentary - what a life story:
