GPA 2.0 Freshman John Kerry and the Mark Halperin Interview

Listening to Hugh Hewitt I am struck by how Stupid the Liberal elites think conservatives are.  I must remind Americans that the Liberal Left claimed President Reagan was stupid and then we take into account the hand written speeches and the hand written corrections to his Speech Writers and we see otherwise.  The "Mr. Gorbachev tear down this wall" was Reagan's own against the collective consensus of advisers.  The other day Mark Steyn has told us about the books President Bush reads that 99.9%, including myself do not know about(btw who was that author Anthony Marks who wrote the Earl of Something I'd like to read it?) 
 
Here we have an article about his the two Presidential Grades from the Boston Globe.  Here is article about Naval Officer Qualification Tests and Pilot Aptitude tests and SATS.  Turns out Bush is Smarter here too!
 
If if you grade GPA 2.0 Freshman John Kerry on a Curve over this gaff he fails!  If he was making fun of President Dubya, he used the Military as the unwitting "fall guy" (backdrop for his comparison) and has employed the humor technique known as "switching" see:
  • Humor - Tips for Using It in Talks and Speeches

This by definition it is a slam of the Military.  Kerry's unfunny double ententra belittles the Military.  Furthermore, most funny people I know are very intelligent like Robin Williams, Jack Benny, Steve Martin, Johnny Carson, Jackie Gleason, Billy Crystal, Hugh Hewitt and Rush Limbaugh. 
 
Remember Time thinks we Christian voters are stupid(as you indicated here)
 
Mark Halperin gets offended by Hugh Hewitt because he dares to consider out loud if he is a liberal yet he tries to perform Psychoanalysis of Hewitt's childhood on air.  Not only has he really overstepped (for which Hugh Hewitt should be insulted and demand an apology because his childhood is personal and any alleged trauma is none of Halperin's business and it it not very PC to ask or insinuate) but he has also violated Medicare and Health HIPAA(HEALTH INSURANCE PORTABILITY AND ACCOUNTABILITY ACT) rules!

Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo! Mail.

Mr. O'Reilly, Bill Oh Really

I disagree with Bill O'Reilly, on Kerry. He should change his name to O'Really. He was on the Hugh Hewitt Show tonight. GPA Dees Kerry's mouth pours forth "abundantly" the poison of his heart.
  • (Luke 6:45) "An evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh."
How about the wisdom here in the gospel of Luke, A Physcian inspired by the Holy Ghost. Oh that I could get that SPIRIT to grace my blogging and Life....
p.s. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh Luke 6: 45
O'Really on Abortion and the MSM is wrong, so Mr. O'Really so go hang with Oprah to whom your are not Patronizing like you are to Hugh Hewitt and us, his Listeners. Bill O'Really has been a flake for a long time especially after his Clinton Moments! I know you do not need my hard earned money but no book for MOI! Factor That O'Really!
Francis I wish!

John Kerry gets D's who is he to talk!

John Kerry's speech(talking smack to the US Military and US Students) before California Co-Eds at a Democrat rally on Monday, Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) again denigrated US troops. D's Kerry makes a habit of this as he has spoken against US soldiers in the past. Yesterday at Pasadena College Kerry insults the educational level of US troops, when he said to the students:
  • "You know education, if you make the most of it, you study hard, you do your homework, and you make an effort to be smart, you can do well. And if you don't you get stuck in Iraq."
John Boy, I guess that is why you ended up in Vietnam right?
Mr. D's Kerry, boy with a picture like this it is a surprise they let you in the Military! Kerry you were a lousy student, a funny looking dork, and you are a pathetic American!

Yale grades portray Kerry as a lackluster student

By Michael Kranish, Boston Globe Staff June 7, 2005

WASHINGTON -- During last year's presidential campaign, John F. Kerry was the candidate often portrayed as intellectual and complex, while George W. Bush was the populist who mangled his sentencesThe transcript shows that Kerry's freshman-year average was 71. He scored a 61 in geology, a 63 and 68 in two history classes, and a 69 in political science. His top score was a 79, in another political science course. Another of his strongest efforts, a 77, came in French class.
Under Yale's grading system in effect at the time, grades between 90 and 100 equaled an A, 80-89 a B, 70-79 a C, 60 to 69 a D, and anything below that was a failing grade. In addition to Kerry's four D's in his freshman year, he received one D in his sophomore year. He did not fail any courses.
''I always told my Dad that D stood for distinction," Kerry said yesterday in a written response to questions, noting that he has previously acknowledged that he spent a lot of time learning to fly instead of focusing on his studies.
Kerry's weak grades came despite years of education at some of the world's most elite prep schools, ranging from Fessenden School in Massachusetts to St. Paul's School in New Hampshire.
John you got "D's at Yale"... Kerry you are a Buffoon! Mr. 2.0 it is Time for you to get out of Politics and go spend your Wife's Husband's MONEY!

Lynne Cheney for President of the USA

Wolf's Anchorman's Blitzkrieg was turned on its head by Lynne Cheney a smart, articulate, classy and graceful author of great children's books. Lynne Cheney's handling of the Wolf man's "journalistic" IED intended for the Vice President of the USA's sent Wolfie scrambling into a defensive and incoherent diatribe and caused him to contradict himself.....:
WB: With all due respect, with all due respect, this is not terrorist propaganda.

LC: Oh, Wolf…

WB: This is reporting the news, which is what we do. We’re not partisan…

LC: Where did you get the film?

WB: We got the film…look, this is an issue that has been widely discussed, this is an issue that we reported on extensively. We make no apologies for showing that. That was a very carefully considered decision, why we did that. And I think, and I think, of your…

LC: Well, I think it’s shocking.

WB: If you’re a serious journalist, you want to report the news. Sometimes the news is good, sometimes the news isn’t so good.

LC: But Wolf, there’s a difference between news and terrorist propaganda. Why did you give the terrorists a forum?

WB: And if you put it in context, if you put it in context, that’s what news is. We said it was propaganda. We didn’t distort where we got it. We didn’t distort anything about it. We gave it the context. Let’s talk about another issue in the news, and then we’ll get to the book. The Democrats are now complaining bitterly in this Virginia race. George Allen using novels, novels that Jim Webb, his Democratic challenger, has written, in which there are sexual references. And they’re making a big deal out of this. I want you to listen to what Jim Webb said today in responding to this very sharp attack from George Allen.

Here is a not so melodic refrain of Wolf man's words
  • "It was not propaganda" and "we said it was propaganda" and "And I think, and I think, of your…" and "it was widely discussed this is an issue that we reported on extensively. We make no apologies for showing that. That was a very carefully considered decision"
Mrs. Vice-President of the United States, Lynne Cheney's intellect, well informed readiness, well read foundation, grace, charm and genuineness allowed her to do a wonderful impromptu Gregory Hines tap dance on Wolf Man's Show thus stealing his show from him. It was like Journalistic Jujitsu and Wolf got Blitzed and Sacked by a GIRL! Way to go Mrs. Vice President! You and your Husband always impress me and I know he will not run for President because of his desire to be with your grandchildren and to not push is ailing heart into OVERDRIVE. Well Mrs. Vice-President you continue to amaze and impress why not consider a run for the Presidency as you are formidable and would be a great opponent to MRS. Bill Clinton. Lynne Cheney you have the RIGHT STUFF as you showed on CNN's Cross Fire Show years ago and from the Cross Fire you jujitsu-ed on naturalized American Wolf Blitzer's (from Israel) show today when he tried to Blind Side you. Too boot you are a Mother and Grandmother bringing that wisdom to the table too. Mrs. Bill would be shaken by the prospects of a GOP Presidential Candidate with the name of Lynne Cheney!....

P.S. Wolf, when Lynne Cheney asked if "you wanted America to win" a question from Congressman Duncan Hunter which you previously ducked, the best response you could give was the Royal WE...
  • "The answer, of course, is we want the United States to win. We are Americans."
Wolfie, in football that lame response would result in a fifteen yard penalty for unsportman's like conduct after Lynne Cheney's beautiful QB sack resulting from her lovely Blitz!
Indeed, that is the Situation in Your Room Mr. CNN!
Lynne Cheney For President!...

His Highness the not so Very Reverend Andy O'Sullen-van



Au Contraire to the Pro-Sullivan Crowd. Andrew Sullen was an arrogant petulant and angry interviewee who obfuscated and tried to steer the conversation into a brawl and to steer it to issues that are only the silly complaints to those on the the left. To compare President Bush and Gitmo to the terrorist is just lame.
Mr. Sullen is a homosexual that advocated unsafe sex on the internet. See this article entitled "Sullivan's Travails" by Eric Alterman from the Left Wing "The Nation" Magazine. It was written about Andy S. in 2002 when he left his position as Editor of the Nation's Competitor the The Republic. He was reckless with his personal life as he indicated in Mr Hewitt's interview and referred to this period in his life while speaking to Hugh Hewitt.

  • See the Nation:
    • "Sullivan is best known as a kind of all-purpose controversy magnet. He posed for a Gap ad; he posted a lurid online advertisement for unprotected sex; and he briefly accepted $7,500 in paid website advertising from a pharmaceutical industry trade association whose products he regularly praises, before returning it. During his stormy editorship of The New Republic, he opened its pages to the lunatic ravings of Camille Paglia, the racist pseudoscience of Charles Murray and the libelous fantasies of Stephen Glass. Sullivan has, moreover, been the target of much gay ire over the conservative content of his writings in The New York Times Magazine, where its editors inexplicably allowed him--slyly but effectively--to out a whole host of allegedly gay Democratic politicians, including Clinton Cabinet members, along with liberal talk-show host Rosie O'Donnell.....And while his site arouses a certain gruesome car-wreck fascination, it serves primarily as a reminder to writers of why we need editors. Andrewsullivan.com sets a standard for narcissistic egocentricity that makes Henry Kissinger look like St. Francis of Assisi."
Furthermore he thinks the Catholic Church should conform to his incontinent ways. News flash Andy: The Church is the Mystical Bride of Christ and not your BOYFRIEND!... What about GOD's Laws and GOD'S RIGHTS? God leads and we follow not the other way around.
The US Constitution interpretation vis a vis the Supreme Court should conform to his interpretation too!

He insulted Mr. Hewitt left and right and attacked him ad hominen.
Mr Hewitt was polite and would not take the bait to allow the interview to degenerate into a cat fight. Mr. Hewitt was dignified and had great Court Side Etiquette while Andy S. was argumentative and a Hostile Witness from the Secular Left.

Andy Sullen is a pompous, angry, intolerant Secularist who wants the World and the Church to conform to his NARROW and Personal Views. King Andy is the Monarchical DICTATOR not President Bush.
Mr. Hewitt was terrific and Andy was a bore and the equivalent of a Conversation Jihadi!

In Andy's mind he is part Part Pope part King part Supreme Court Justice part Eduard R. Murrow but in reality he all Keith Oberman with a British Accent!


Great Job Mr. Hewitt you displayed a GREAT and Dignified FORM while interviewing this Hostile Witness of the Secular LEFT who tries to paint himself as an authentic Conservative and loyal Roman Catholic! LOL. Offer it up Andy Sullen-van


P.S."Andrew Michael Sullivan (born August 10, 1963) is a"British-American" (actually, not officially an American citizen according to a recent interview with Brian Lamb on C-SPAN)."

Pope Benedict and the Reasons for the Name Benedict

Benedict XVI to visit Benedict XVPope Benedict XV.
Cardianl Ratzinger and now Pope Benedict XVI chose his name to remind the world and reveive the Grace of St. Benedict, the Catholic Monk and father of Modern Catholic Monasticism. The Saint saved Europe and founded the Beneditine Order and Rule.
  • St. Benedict the principal, heavenly patron of the whole of Europe. The title piously exaggerates the place of Benedict but in many respects it is true. St. Benedict did not establish the monastery of Monte Cassino in order to preserve the learning of the ages, but in fact the monasteries that later followed his Rule were places where learning and manuscripts were preserved. For some six centuries or more the Christian culture of medieval Europe was nearly identical with the monastic centers of piety and learning.
Saint Benedict was not the founder of Christian monasticism, since he lived two and a half to three centuries after its beginnings in Egypt, Palestine, and Asia Minor. He became a monk as a young man and thereafter learned the tradition by associating with monks and reading the monastic literature. He was caught up in the monastic movement but ended by channeling the stream into new and fruitful ways. This is evident in the Rule which he wrote for monasteries and which was and is still used in many monasteries and convents around the world (see Rule of Benedict).
Tradition teaches that St. Benedict lived from 480 to 547, though we cannot be sure that these dates are historically accurate. His biographer, St. Gregory the Great, pope from 590 to 604, does not record the dates of his birth and death, though he refers to a Rule written by Benedict. Scholars debate the dating of the Rule though they seem to agree that it was written in the second third of the sixth century.
Cardinal Ratzinger also chose to honor a Pope who the Muslims honor! At the Saint Esprit Cathedral in the Istanbul neighbourhood of Harbiye there a statue of his namesake, Benedict XV.

During a reign that lasted from 1914-22, Pope Benedict XV struggled to stop World War One and built a hospital at the Syrian border where wounded Turkish soldiers were treated. The current pope calls Benedict XV “a courageous ambassador for peace”.

The statue, situated in the gardens of a cathedral named for Benedict XV and it has been cleaned by the Istanbul Metropolitan Municipality for the Pope Benedict's visit.

Istanbul statue honors ‘great Pontiff’ Benedict

Monday, September 25, 2006



TOM HENEGHAN

ISTANBUL - Reuters

Just off a busy main street in central Istanbul stands a towering statue of Pope Benedict, with a plaque hailing him as "the benefactor of all people, regardless of nationality or religion."
Pope Benedict XVI, now under fire in the Muslim world for recent remarks about Islam, will visit the larger-than-life bronze statue during his delicate trip to Turkey in late November.
Is this a gesture of reconciliation from a government with Islamist roots that has just called the German-born pontiff's words "ugly and unfortunate"? Or a serious mistake in timing?
The answer is neither. The statue was erected in 1921 to Pope Benedict XV, the last head of the Roman Catholic Church to use that name until German Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger was elected pope in April 2005 and became Benedict XVI.
Ratzinger said that the last Benedict's repeated efforts to end World War I were one reason he took the name.
Turkey honored the Italian-born Benedict for opening up Catholic health facilities to all victims of the war, regardless of which side they fought on. The then Ottoman Empire was allied with another empire that lost that war, Germany.
"He didn't succeed in ending the war, so he did what he could to ease the suffering of its victims," said Monsignor Georges Marovitch, spokesman for the bishops serving the tiny minority of Roman and Eastern Catholics in this Muslim country.
Heeding his call, the Spanish Embassy set up a small hospital and nuns installed recovery rooms in their convents for wounded Ottoman soldiers and ailing Austrian and Italian prisoners of war forced to work in Anatolian mines and on railways.
When Church officials began collecting for the statue, Sultan Mehmet VI joined Muslims, Jews, Armenians and other groups contributing to the fund, said Rinaldo Marmara, historian for the Vatican representation in Istanbul.
Worried Benedict says "Stop!'
The statue stands on a large stone pedestal in the small forecourt of the Cathedral of the Holy Spirit, built in 1846.
In keeping with their minority status here, the Catholics had to hide the cathedral behind an office building to avoid offending the city's Muslim majority. They erected the statue in the forecourt for the same reason.
The Italian-made memorial shows a worried looking Benedict in his papal robes and triple tiara, with his right hand raised as if to say "stop!" to the trench fighting he abhorred.
It would be hard to imagine any such gesture of gratitude to today's Benedict, who spoke out against Turkish membership in the European Union before he was elected pope.
This month, he gave a speech interpreted as an attack on Islam, prompting Muslim leaders to call for the visit to be called off or for Benedict to issue a full apology.
But it's not all hard feelings here.
The city of Istanbul has paid for cleaning and renovating the statue in preparation for the pope's visit.
"We're the City Hall for all the people, not just for one group," said Nadya Tasel, the city official in charge of relations with minority communities, said as she visited the site to review the work.
Asked how much the renovation cost, she smiled and said: "This is a gift from the city. It's not right to reveal the price of a gift."
Benedict XV also promulgated a new Code of Canon Law in 1917 and attempted to improve relations with the anticlerical Republican government of France. He canonised the French national heroine Saint Joan of Arc. In the mission territories of the Third World, he emphasised the necessity of training native priests to replace the European missionaries as soon as possible, and established a Coptic college in the Vatican.
In physical appearance, Benedict XV was a slight, rather sickly man (the smallest of the three cassocks which had been prepared for whoever the new Pope might be in 1914 was still a good deal too big for him). He was renowned for his generosity, answering all pleas for help from poor Roman families with large cash gifts from his private revenues.
Benedict XV had a strong devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary, and like all the modern Popes encouraged the wearing of the Brown Scapular of Our Lady of Mount Carmel. He endorsed the belief that wearing it piously brings "the singular privilege of protection after death" from eternal damnation, and granted an indulgence for every time it was kissed. He also added the title 'Queen of Peace' to her Litany, and gave his support to an understanding of Mary as Mediatrix of All Graces (by approving a Mass and office under this title for the dioceses of Belgium) and affirmed that "together with Christ she redeemed the human race" by her immolation of Christ as his sorrowful mother (in his apostolic letter Inter sodalicia).
Benedict XV fell ill with pneumonia in early January 1922. Speculation around the world about the 67 year old pontiff's impending death went so far that a New York newspaper mistakenly ran a front page headline announcing that he had died when, in fact, he continued on. The newspaper had a sense of humor about its terrible gaffe and ran a follow-up headline later in the day, "Pope has remarkable recovery". On January 22, Benedict XV died of the illness.

Although one of the less remembered Popes of the twentieth century, Benedict XV was unique in his humane approach in the world of 1914-1918, which starkly contrasts with that of the other great monarchs and leaders of the time. His worth is reflected in the tribute engraved at the foot of the statue that the Turks, a non-Catholic, non-Christian people, erected of him in Istanbul: "The great Pope of the world tragedy...the benefactor of all people, irrespective of nationality or religion."
