Why so afraid of socialism?

Capitalism sure áint working and has a limited life span - all governments know this, you cannot keep the world going as it is.

And Emily's list - even you Ders has to admit that politics is like poison for women, every single woman pollie is attacked and demeaned and taken for a ride, and used.
It's a boys club, and we need help breaking in and learning how to take the insults - I've thought about it, but don't think I could take the filthy way men treat women in politics.

But if women don't stand up and join in there won't be any women to ever do it and go into politics.

We need more of you ladies to do that.
 
Women Killed in PNG for - Sorcery!

Two elderly women in Papua New Guinea were tortured for three days receiving deep knife and axe wounds before being beheaded in front of police after being accused of sorcery.
The women had been taken captive by the family of a school teacher who had died in the village of Lopele in South Bougainville.
Last week's killing comes after a report that six women and a man accused of sorcery were tortured with hot irons in a Southern Highlands Easter witchhunt.
ONE News Pacific Correspondent Barbara Dreaver says superstition is a massive problem in PNG.
"A lot of it is just finding someone to blame. And women seem to be the ones that they're blaming for deaths. And it's just sheer thuggery. I mean you don't torture someone for three days and say it's culture. It's an excuse for terrible, terrible things that are happening," she said.


OMG, witch hunts STILL!

Cheers for the opportunity for me to make a decision between Proverbs 26:4 and Proverbs 26:5. My decision is to simpy provide you with some pretty pictures to colour in.

BTW, which "job" do you want come the revolution, comrade ? Do you want to be helping find and herd enemies of the global socialist state into railway cattle cars to be taken somewhere out of sight and out of mind, or would you rather be one of the guards "just following orders" at the concentration camps and helping decide who stays a slave for another day and who is released from that with one of the following:

WE ARE STAR PEOPLE: Scientific proof we were created by aliens

DON'T be alarmed, but you have alien DNA in your genetic code. Science says so.

Scientists from Kazakhstan believe that human DNA was encoded with an extraterrestrial signal by an ancient alien civilisation, Discovery.com reports.

They call it "biological SETI" and the researchers claim that the mathematical code in human DNA cannot be explained by evolution.

In a nutshell, we're living, breathing vessels for some kind of alien message which is more easily used to detect extra terrestrial life than via radio transmission.

"Once fixed, the code might stay unchanged over cosmological timescales; in fact, it is the most durable construct known," the researchers wrote in scientific journal, Icarus. "Therefore it represents an exceptionally reliable storage for an intelligent signature.

"Once the genome is appropriately rewritten the new code with a signature will stay frozen in the cell and its progeny, which might then be delivered through space and time."

The scientists also claim that human DNA is ordered so precisely that it reveals an "ensemble of arithmetical and ideographical patterns of symbolic language".

Their research has led the scientists to conclude that we were invented "outside the solar system, already several billion years ago".

The thesis supports the hypothesis that Earth is the result of interstellar life forms distributed by meteors and comets.

So if we are just vessels for alien communication, exactly what kind of secret message are we carrying in our DNA?

And if we were the creation of aliens, who created them?

Seriously though, the bible does indicate that the Nephilim will be evident again prior / during the time of tribulation prior to the return of Yeshua.

Anyhoo, do enjoy the following which begins with a bit of "spics and specs"

PAUSING TO REMEMBER... MOVING ON TO CELEBRATE

To those outside Israel, these are probably the most peculiar 48 hours in the entire year... The first twenty-four - Israel mourns, remembering fallen soldiers and victims of terror. The second twenty-four - we celebrate our Independence Day - this year Israel's 65th Birthday.

However, to Israelis - there's nothing strange about it! After all, it's because of all the people who gave their lives so that we might have this freedom and future, that we can celebrate. And remembering and thanking them just before the celebration is as natural as can be.

Merely a week after Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Memorial Day is truly full of weeping and mourning. While there are less and less Holocaust survivors each year, the number of soldiers and civillians killed in our struggle for survival continues to grow. Every one in Israel either has a loved one who died in one of Israel's many wars, or knows someone whose loved one who died. This is the day when hundreds of thousands will be visiting graves or memorials, turning back to memories - good and bad, many, wondering what life could be like if only the tragedy could be averted.

Each year, hundreds of stories are told about brave young soldiers who were taken away too soon. While the sirens are sounding loud across the country, and we put everything aside and stand for two minutes, one can't help but think about these children of Israel, seeing their faces, feeling sad for their parents, wives, children...

And then the evening of the second day will be drawing near. Kids will get out of school early, and stores will close, and for a while you will get that feeling as if Shabbat is coming... streets will get emptier and quieter as people will go home to get some rest before the celebration.

As the night falls, that emptiness quickly disappears and the streets fill up with multitudes. In every city, stages have already been built and now music plays and everything in between will be happening on every corner. Vendors with balloons, special independence knick-knacks and lots (LOTS!) of restaurants will serve their customers as fast as they possibly can. Firework budgets run wild on Independence Day, and they are spectacular!

Israelis will party tonight into the wee hours of the morning, and tomorrow millions will flood the national forests and parks for a traditional "al' ha'esh" (on the fire) grilling. This is the day to spend time with family and friends.

Yes, we go all out to celebrate Israel's birthday every year. After all, Israel, probably more than any other nation on earth, knows not to take our existence for granted. In fact, her struggle is one of thousands of years.

So while we remember the fallen and then celebrate this year, we pray that the Lord will safeguard our country. That He will shine His love on us. That He will show our people His Son in all of His glory. That this will be the acceptable year of the Lord, the year of His favor... when all Israel is saved.

Happy 65th Birthday, Israel !

bolding, mine ...

If the Australian Labor Party’s affirmative action/"EMILY’s List” regime had been in place in Britain when Margaret Thatcher was making her rise, she never would have reached the top.

The late British prime minister’s life was the antithesis of the deadbeat philosophy behind such gender quotas, which reward mediocrity above worthiness.

A woman who favoured self-reliance over collectivism, individual effort over institutional preferment, integrity over compromise, a renegade, a non-conformist, would never have fitted into such an egregiously unjust system.

Quotas are designed to promote the worst sort of people. They benefit the spivs, the cheats, the slackers, the fakes and the incompetents. At heart they are just another socialist redistribution mechanism, and are as doomed to failure as all the others.

Quotas reward cheap Machiavellianism, a career spent greasing up to vested interests, engaging in office politics and intrigue, gaming psychometric tests and pandering to human resources departments, plotting coups, and forging alliances with like-minded con-artists. Such people are singularly unsuited to lead a nation or a business.

Thatcher would not have been chosen, nor been willing to be drafted under such a corrupt system.

Yet once an affirmative action arrangement is established, opportunities to flourish outside it are poisoned, because unfair preferment of women damages the credibility of all women, whether they buy into the system or not. Those capable of succeeding on merit are tainted with the suspicion that they could not have made it without special assistance.

“I would hate a person to ask me a question, are you a quota woman or are you a merit woman,” Thatcher said in 1993, three years after she left office. “I would like (the assessment of) whatever I did to be that I got there because I was the right person for the job, (that) it didn’t matter as a man or a woman. I had the right qualities for the job, the right beliefs, the right principles. I wasn’t a quota.”

Thatcher’s self belief was reinforced by the knowledge that, when she came to the prime ministership in 1979, she was owned by no special interest group. She was a creature of nothing except her middle-class, Methodist upbringing, with a scientist’s logical brain, faith in the free market and the Christian virtues of thrift, hard work and self reliance. She was utterly her own woman.

And she knew that bureaucratic tools like quotas are only dreamed up by authoritarian leftists to advance their own ideology. Women are just the vehicle, and if it ever comes down to a contest between women and ideology, they always lose.

“Nowadays, socialism is more often dressed up as environmentalism, feminism or international concern for human rights,” Thatcher once said.

“All sound good in the abstract. But scratch the surface and you will as likely as not discover anti-capitalism, patronising and distorting quotas, and intrusions upon the sovereignty and democracy of nations.”

She could have been talking about Labor’s feminist network, EMILY’s List, co-founded by Julia Gillard and her mentor, the failed Victorian premier Joan Kirner, to promote “progressive” women in the party, and advance left-wing causes.

Emily is the unfortunate acronym for Early Money Is Like Yeast - that is, it makes dough rise.

To prosper as a woman in Labor you have to belong to EMILY’s List.

To belong to EMILY’s List, as at least 75 per cent of Labor women do, you must be a pro-abortion feminist supporting “equity” and “diversity”?

Its “40/40/20 Affirmative Action Rule”, enshrined in Labor policy, requires that a minimum of 40 per cent of women be preselected in winnable seats. EMILY’S List is bitterly resented by staunch Labor men, who daren’t criticise it out loud for fear of being branded misogynists.

Privately they describe it as a, “barnacle that has attached itself to the Labor Party, a parasite on the body politic (which) alienates voters, especially in marginal seats”.

They know it is the vehicle for a stealth takeover of their party by the Left, using gender as a weapon. Thus it renders Labor increasingly out of touch with the electorate and ultimately unelectable.

As for benefiting women, EMILY’s List would actively exclude a star candidate such as Thatcher.

“The feminists hate me, don’t they,” she once asked The Spectator’s Paul Johnson.

“And I don’t blame them. For I hate feminism - it is poison.”

Without EMILY’S List, Julia Gillard, who history will probably record as Labor’s worst prime minister, would never have made it to the top.

It is the vehicle by which Gillard has realised her ambitions.

Foiled by the party and twice unable to win preselection on her own merits, she and Kirner set about finding a way to subvert Labor processes.

Kirner was reportedly “incandescent with anger” after Gillard missed out on a winnable position on Labor’s Senate ticket in 1996, and decided to set up the affirmative action group. Gillard drafted the constitution.

Once she made it into parliament in 1998, EMILY’S List continued to do Gillard’s dirty work.

For instance, in 2004 leaked EMILY’s List polling found fault with then deputy Labor leader Jenny Macklin, claiming she was “failing to cut through”.

Surprise, surprise, it rated Gillard as parliament’s top performer. Soon enough, Gillard had Macklin’s job.

Even with a woman in The Lodge, EMILY’s List continues to up the ante. Having almost reached its goal of 40 per cent of women in the parliamentary Labor party, it is pushing for 50 per cent.

There have been attempts to reserve a portion of safe seats for women only.

And now Gillard is pushing the idea of artificial quotas in the wider community, to get more women onto corporate boards and into top roles in the public service. Treasury has complied, with a plan for women to fill 35 per cent of senior ranks by 2016.

One of the first feminist luminaries invited to Australia by EMILY’s List was Glenda Jackson, the actress-turned British Labor MP.

It was Jackson last week who led the criticism of Thatcher in the hours after her death. She couldn’t deny that Thatcher had shaped history more forcefully and effectively than almost any man in the same job. So she just denied Thatcher was a woman.

“The first prime minister of female gender, OK. But a woman? Not on my terms.”

With women such as Jackson and her EMILY’s List acolytes running the show, there will never be another Thatcher. Which is probably the point.

and from here: http://blogs.news.com.au/heraldsun/...n_only_sexism_can_explain_this_criticism/P20/

Emily’s Listers are not only “pro-abortion”, but they are pro-late-term, partial birth abortions. The character of an individual who thinks this sort of thing supports “equity” and “diversity” is void of humanity. We need to keep calling to people’s attention that Julia, Penny, Tanya & Co. are members of this group. Are they REALLY the sort of individuals Australia wants making decisions that impact our lives?

I have to disagree with something in your comment - you state history will probably record Gillard as Labor’s worst prime minister. Wrong, history will record her as AUSTRALIA’S worst ever prime minister

Gillard did not win pre-selection for Lalor on merit - she was beaten into fourth place by three better qualified males - but was givren the nod on the basis of affirmative action. Now look how that seed has grown - into a pestiferous weed.

My brother was part of a gender quota.

Back in the late 70's there was an affirmative action strategy to encourage more males into nursing, it worked.

The issue is very complex and both DS and I could quote blogs, websites and news articles to back up our opinions.

As a working woman in a male dominated area of nursing I am very much aware of the "boys club". Until recently very few female nurses made their way up the ladder. Thank fully times have changed, they even pay us equal wages these days. :rolleyes:
