When Wrong Ideology Rules Us

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Monday, May 11, 2009 1:32:33 AM
"The problem of misunderstanding and misinterpreting the word IDEOLOGY by the American intellectuals and consequently by the majority of the American people results in a lack of general ideological awareness of the Nation. Consequently, it causes the current ideological defeat of the United States in battle with "wrong ideologies". - Boris Tiraspolsky



When Ideology Rules Us
By Bruce Walker

The unfolding spectacle of which leftist cipher should be appointed by Obama to replace departing leftist cipher, David Souter, on the Supreme Court underscores just how purely ideological justice in America has become.  At first blush, conservatives might have taken some hope from Obama's promise to look for "those on the outside" to be on the court:  there is no more underrepresented group in government or politics than conservatives, and there is no group more subject to the unfair application of the law than conservatives. Continued...

The Taliban "jihadis," or holy-warriors

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Sunday, May 10, 2009 1:16:47 AM
"Since 1971 the unremorseful and bloody-minded ruling elite of Pakistan -- civil and military -- pushed Pakistan deeper into a dependency alliance with Saudi Arabia. It meant importing the Saudi version of Islam -- Wahhabism -- and its spread deep across the country through the rapid expansion of religious schools and mosques funded by money from the Gulf countries. The products of these schools and mosques are the Taliban "jihadis," or holy-warriors..."



Pakistan basically Taliban state
By SALIM MANSUR

There is frantic concern in Washington and elsewhere that Pakistan has reached its tipping point and might succumb to the Taliban forces entrenched barely 80 km (50 miles) from the capital, Islamabad. But the concern is misleading. A country of some 160 million Muslims is not about to be overrun by the Taliban. On the contrary, Pakistan is more or less a Taliban state shaped by its origin and history. Continued...

Pearl Harbor was our fault

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Friday, May 08, 2009 12:51:37 AM
"Mr. Obama should apologize to the Japanese because we made them attack Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. Pearl Harbor was our fault because we never bothered to learn Japanese language, culture, and history."


Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941

The President hasn't apologized enough
By Edward Bernard Glick
 
President Barack Obama has made abject apologies for the actions of his predecessors a cornerstone of his foreign policy. In his recent trips to Europe and the Caribbean, he apologized for the arrogance of President George W. Bush, and he sought forgiveness for the latter's treatment of terrorists captured after 9/11. But Mr. Obama should go further. Continued...

To navigate the course of human history

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Thursday, May 07, 2009 9:24:06 PM
"...a vow of "Never Again" requires vision.  It requires the vision to navigate the course of human history by the bright stars of freedom, equality, and liberty, even in the darkest night.  It is the darkest nights which truly illuminate the stars of freedom that our humanity may have once taken for granted. 



‘Never Again’ Requires Consistency on Equality and Liberty
Jeffrey Imm

April 21, 2009 marks this year's Holocaust Remembrance Day (Yom Hashoah), where many around the world will pause and reflect on the tragedy of the Holocaust. At the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington DC, there will be an annual names reading ceremony and "the Museum will lead the nation in commemorating the six million Jews who were murdered in the Holocaust, as well as the millions of other victims of Nazi persecution." Continued...

Decent or indecent art

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Thursday, May 07, 2009 12:57:48 AM
The article below had been published eight years ago. However, the problem still persists and "...the real debate is not one concerning decent or indecent art, it is a debate concerning the very foundation of our constitutionally limited government; the exercise of power not authorized by the Constitution; the misappropriation of Federal Treasury money; the willingness of Congress to abridge freedom of speech prohibited by the Constitution; and, the Supreme Court aiding and abetting in this tyrannical practice!"



Enemies of our Republic
John William Kurowski

A Washington Times Feb. 21 Editorial, "Yo philistines", is quite saddening because it focuses on the same old tired bread-and-circus debate concerning taxpayer funded art, and neglects to identify enemies of our constitutionally limited Republic, especially those in Congress embled  and those on the Supreme Court of the United States! Continued...

The light from mankind's last best hope

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Tuesday, May 05, 2009 1:49:09 AM
"We need to have conservative philosophers and cultural icons that state the case for and epitomize the worth of traditional Western culture. More mundanely, we need to nurture conservative film makers, fund conservative law schools, build conservative foundations (like Heritage, but more of them), defend and expand talk radio, establish conservative newspapers (like the Washington Times, but more of them), concoct an organization to counter the NEA in the minds of the country's teachers, abandon the mainline churches and support religious institutions that champion traditional values, etc. … If we don't do this, then the America that we have loved and which has proven to be such a boon to the peoples of the world will surely — perhaps slowly, but maybe not so slowly — wither into one more Euro-socialist State. Then the light from mankind's last best hope will have gone out."



Conservatives in Retreat—On Many Tracks
Some painful lessons for the right
by Ron Lipsman

This is not a happy season for American conservatives. The executive, legislative and, to a large extent, the judicial branches of the federal government are almost completely under the control of liberal Democrats. Moreover, as conservatives feared, our liberal masters are pursuing a far left agenda that will catapult the United States much further down the road toward Euro-socialism. We are not doing any better in the culture wars. The media, academia, legal profession, foundations, public schools, libraries and virtually all other opinion molding organs of American society remain firmly in the grip of the Left and, thanks to their influence, perversion (e.g., pornography, infanticide, same sex marriage) is flourishing while traditional culture (e.g., religion, the family, patriotism) is under attack. When we pass from politics and culture to economics, matters do not improve. Continued...

Nobody reads the signs

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Monday, May 04, 2009 1:17:50 AM

"I am amazed by those who think the U.S. economy is going to recover, that global peace is attainable, that American liberties are going to survive American barbarism. Look at our culture today: men are no longer men, and women are no longer women; capitalists no longer uphold free market principles; constitutional government no longer adheres to the Constitution; enemies are treated as friends. Nobody reads the signs. Nobody sees what is coming."



The Investment Climate in 2059
by J. R. Nyquist

While visiting the court of Attila the Hun in A.D. 448, a Roman diplomat named Priscus was greeted by a barbarian who suddenly began speaking Greek without an accent. Priscus couldn’t believe his ears. The man was dressed as a Hun, lived as a Hun and fought alongside the Huns. How could this possibly be? Continued...

Churchill knew this better than most

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Sunday, May 03, 2009 1:09:16 AM
"Wars are not won solely on the battlefield. Churchill knew this better than most. Wars are won in minds of the leaders first, who are willing to deploy brutality and destruction, deceit and psychological intimidation even indiscriminately, despite the occasional moral ambiguities. Intelligence gathered about the intent of the enemy is a precursor to battlefield victories. Sometimes timely and prescient intelligence can avoid battles altogether or at least assure victory sooner minimizing the death and collateral dismemberment."


Winston Churchill

War Ain't Beanbag
By Geoffrey P. Hunt

Perhaps George W Bush's most significant failure as president was not convincing enough Americans that the war on terror was a real war. From the vantage point of most Americans it had -- and still does have -- the look and feel of a police action, something far less. A bit like the "phony war" for Brits in 1939-1940, right up until the Battle of Britain and for Americans until Pearl Harbor. Continued...

Ideological Enemies of the Nation

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Friday, May 01, 2009 9:43:39 AM
"...we are in a midst of a decisive ideological struggle, or rather U.S. Ideological Civil War for the very existence of our Constitutional Republic. Most dangerous ideological attacks come from those in Power considering the Constitution of the United States to be an “unfinished document“. These ideological enemies of the Nation and their collaborates are not reluctant to routinely interfere with the Constitution when they see it does not fit their inexorable lust for power, money and privileges." - The time for Battle has come...
 
 
"Lincoln's constitutionalism, I believe, is the only effective rebuttal to progressive and civil rights criticisms. Thus if Republicans are serious about recovering constitutional government, it's hard to imagine how they would be successful without Lincoln. With Lincoln, it's hard to imagine how they would fail." - The political religion of the nation 
 
"Don't interfere with anything in the Constitution. That must be maintained, for it is the only safeguard of our liberties." - Abraham Lincoln

"Anyone who interferes with anything in the Constitution of the United States is an ideological enemy of the Nation." - Boris Tiraspolsky

Stop the Islamization

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Thursday, April 30, 2009 1:06:35 AM
"If we do not stop the Islamization, we will lose everything: our identity, our culture, our democratic constitutional state, our freedom and our civilization. In Europe we are already losing the right to free speech, the right to criticize Islam. I think, criticisms of religions or ideologies always ought to be possible in a free world. Human rights exist for the protection of individuals, not religions and ideologies."


Geert Wilders
 
Geert Wilders born 6 September 1963 is a Dutch politician and leader of the Party for Freedom. Born of a German father on the border town of Venlo and raised a Roman Catholic, the young Geert Wilders formed many of his political views in his travels to Israel and the neighboring Arab countries. His early job at the Dutch social insurance agency moved him to politics, where he worked as a speechwriter for the liberal People's Party for Freedom and Democracy. In 1996, he moved to the city of Utrecht, and represented his pluralistic neighborhood in the city council, and later the House of Representatives of the Netherlands.

Citing irreconcilable differences on the party's position on Turkish accession to the European Union, Wilders left the People's Party in 2006 to form his own party, the Party for Freedom. Since then, he has been outspoken on the issues of immigration, Islamic fundamentalism and freedom of speech. His provocative 2008 film about Islam in the Netherlands, Fitna, has received international attention, condemnation, and comparisons to Theo van Gogh. Due to death threats, he has been forced into guarded isolation, and has been banned from entering the United Kingdom since 12 February 2009.

Here is Geert Wilders's acceptance speech for the Freedom Award he was given by the Florida Security Council in Miami on April 27: Continued...

The time for Battle has come...

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Wednesday, April 29, 2009 1:21:25 AM

"...the victorious future of the GOP entirely depends on this uncorrupted ideological platform no one can deny either inside, or outside the Party. As John Marshall once said: “... a constitution, intended to endure for  years to come, and consequently to be adapted to the various crises of human affairs”. -  The Party of the Ideology of the U.S. Constitution




Summary of the Speech by Boris Tiraspolsky
at the South Oakland Republican Club in Michigan
April 27, 2009


"The time for talking is over.
The time for Battle has come.
The minds of the People are sober.
We beat our Victory drum."
Anthem of  Useful Arts by Boris Tiraspolsky
1. Currently, we are in a midst of a decisive ideological struggle, or rather U.S. Ideological Civil War for the very existence of our Constitutional Republic. Most dangerous ideological attacks come from those in Power considering the Constitution of the United States to be an “unfinished document“. These ideological enemies of the Nation and their collaborates are not reluctant to routinely interfere with the Constitution when they see it does not fit their inexorable lust for power, money and privileges.

2. In spite of a defeat in November 2008, fractured and heavily outnumbered, the GOP remains the only real political Force in the United States that is capable of withstanding and successfully combating the ideological enemies of the Nation and their collaborators in the Battle for Fate of our Nation. Practical ideas and Eternal Ideals of the Constitution could become a unifying point for all members within the GOP, turning the GOP into a visible representation of the Invisible Hand of the Ideology of the Constitution.
 
3. In order to successfully conduct the U.S. Ideological Civil War and eventually win the war, the GOP needs to form a strong massive Force of Ideological Warriors - Public Instructors - professionally trained “to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution”. This Force needs to be present in every local municipality. It should be equipped with superior Ideological Instruments necessary to make practical ideas and Eternal Ideals of the Constitution to become an integral part of everyday life of the American people.

4. Neither the GOP Ideological Force, nor advanced GOP Ideological Instruments can appear miraculously by themselves. They need to be formed and established. No one actually knows how “to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States“ either. Therefore, learning how to “promote the Progress of… useful Arts” as it is mandated by the Constitution in Article 1, Section 8 may become an invaluable political, economic, social and cultural experience for the Republican Party.

5. Oakland County Republicans have a unique opportunity to establish the very first GOP School utilizing Ideological Instruments of “useful Arts“. The School will become a model for all the rest GOP organizations to learn how “to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution” and thus shifting a balance of Power in the county, impacting the political climate in Michigan and effecting the political process in the United States.

6. The future of the GOP depends on the Party’s ability to educate the general public and win over the minds and hearts of the American people as well as recruit new members and supporters for the GOP. Forming a strong and massive GOP Force of Ideological Warriors and developing superior Ideological Instruments of “useful Arts” are a must for achieving this objective. GOP School(s) will be instrumental in consolidating human and financial resources for taking back local, State and Federal institutions of Power. Victory will not be easy. However, without GOP School of “useful Arts“ it does not seem possible, at all.

Expect push, push, push on all the fronts...

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Tuesday, April 28, 2009 2:00:18 AM
"Our enemies have taken the measure of Obama and Hillary Clinton. They are not bothering to wait. They know this is Jimmy Carter II in the White House, and they are acting accordingly. Expect push, push, push on all the fronts..."



Afghan-Pakistan: Al Qaida's new safe haven
By James Lewis

The Obama administration looks like it's going to acquiesce in the face of a nuclear-armed radicalized Pakistan, just as Jimmy Carter bowed down low in the face of Ayatollah Khomeini. Soon we will have two radicalized Muslim states with nuclear weapons and long-range missiles: A Shiite Iran, and a Sunni Pakistan. Continued...

Right message and right Messenger

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Monday, April 27, 2009 3:13:36 AM
"The Republican Party arguably is the only political party in the United States that still can produce both the “right” political, economic. social and cultural Message in “crises of human affairs” and the “right” Messenger to lead the Nation away from the historical “Dead End“ of Socialism currently offered by the Democratic Party to the American people." - Boris Tiraspolsky
 

The problem with Republicans
By Howard Underwood
 
This past election showed that Republicans in America are in trouble.  The culprit may simply be the public's fatigue with an eight year Republican administration (not to mention the fact that McCain ran a singularly inept campaign).  President Obama's startling ascendancy, though, a career trajectory that took place despite the absence of any meaningful resume and the presence of some very eyebrow-raising associates, indicates that the Republican Party's problems run deeper than fatigue and campaign ineptitude. Continued...

Seeing events through the eyes of others

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Sunday, April 26, 2009 1:54:24 AM
"In real life, the political and strategic games used by politicians and statesmen are in fact social games – requiring social intelligence as well as technical mastery of information. The skills of the orator, cultivated by ancient statesmen like Cicero and Demosthenes, or by modern statesmen like Benjamin Disraeli and Abraham Lincoln, require emotional maturity and the talent of seeing events through the eyes of others."



Lessons Taken from Strategy Games
by J. R. Nyquist

Games of strategy, like chess, teach many lessons that are transferrable to everyday life. What is valuable in a game, as opposed to a book or public idea, is the way in which gaming mercilessly punishes error. A book or teaching may be popular in society, but how does society discover its errors? In games of strategy, like chess, a blunder is quickly punished. But in society, which is governed by a “politically correct” regime that manages our perceptions, blunders are often masked and good ideas are blamed for effects caused by bad ideas. Erroneous policies can remain in place for decades, until society finds itself in a crisis. But in a strategy game, one is forced to confront one’s own shortcomings. The player who adopts a bad idea is crushed by his opponent – who is immediately rewarded for his perspicacity. Continued...

Give us Sharia implementation or endure terror

Posted by Boris Tiraspolsky on Saturday, April 25, 2009 1:21:36 AM
"...the Taliban are conquering Pakistani land. Their technique is simple: Give us Sharia implementation or endure terror. Authorities have been choosing the morphine option: let them apply Sharia if they seize fire. But as soon as an area is “granted” to the jihadists, a new “jihad” begins towards the adjacent district."

The Taliban’s “AfPak” Strategy: A Jihadi Preemptive War
By Walid Phares

As the U.S. administration and its allies are devising a new strategy for the next steps in Afghanistan, the jihadists have already begun their next move — but this time it’s inside Pakistan. As I’ve written over the past few months, we need to look at Afghanistan, Pakistan and India as one regional battlefield where the “other side” is coordinating strategically, acting methodically and for sure beating the international coalition in speed. Continued...
