mrs hartzler, mr. huelskamp & mrs. lonegan’s anti-semitic son, steve
Vicki Jo is 53 today. Once the head of the Missouri Women’s Council- way back in 2005- she was dead agin the ERA and yet there she was championing second-rate citizenship for all Missouri’s women and is often quoted as stating she did not want women used to pass some liberal agenda. She is a good Christian from one of those evangelical communities too numerous and by my unfriendly lights too convoluted to mention.

“Among other things, Vicky Hartzler apparently believes that the heathen Chinese are spying on us through our toasters. “And
I am concerned, she is to have stated, they are shipping all the, I’m
concerned about the microchips. That they are in many, many of the
things that we own. And some of those are embedded, I believe, with,
with detection and, uh, capabilities or tracking capabilities. She’d also rather the government not tolerate those
“fringe religions” because the First Amendment says that Congress Shall
Make No Law Unless Vicky Hartzler Thinks Your God Is Freaky.”
Vicky Hartzler is running in Missouri’s 4th Congressional District.
She opposes gay marriage; she opposes hate-crimes laws; she opposes the repeal of DADT.
Now, that doesn’t really make her much different than most Republicans running for office, so, why then, is Vicky Hartzler considered the most anti-gay political candidate in America?

In 2012, she won re-election with 60 percent of the vote.

| In 1971 about the time Vicki Jo was helping out with the chores around the family farm after attending the Archie elementary school Morris Dees was helping to establish the SOUTHERN POVERTY LAW CENTER in Montgomery, Alabama.(www.splcenter.org) In its mission statement ( a curious phrase but nevertheless) it simply states” “The Southern Poverty Law Center was founded to ensure that the promises of the civil rights movement became a reality for all.” Over the years it has “shut down some of the nation’s most dangerous hate groups by winning crushing multi-million dollar jury verdicts on behalf of their victims.” In short it keeps tabs on our nation’s HATE and backs up its civility with action. Among its more recent actions : |
10/01/2013 - The SPLC filed a federal lawsuit today against the town of Shannon, Miss., its mayor and its aldermen for unjustly denying a business license to a bar catering to the LGBT community.
09/26/2013 - For thousands of workers in poultry plants, a
federal proposal to speed up processing lines will only bring more
injuries and more pain.
09/24/2013 - The SPLC has reached an agreement with Florida’s Polk County School Board that will ensure children held at the Central County Jail receive an appropriate education vital to helping them return to their communities.
09/19/2013 - A federal judge denied a motion today by the Birmingham Police Department in Alabama to dismiss an SPLC lawsuit challenging the use of pepper spray on Birmingham public schoolchildren – a ruling that allows the case to move forward.
Get it? There’s over 40 years of case histories –
defending the defenseless and exposing the goings on
of our country’s more despicable citizens and organizations. One of
these American anomalies is the FAMILY RESEARCH COUNCIL which as the
SPLC notes:
“ bills itself as “the leading voice for the family in our nation’s halls of power,” but its real specialty is defaming gays and lesbians. The FRC often makes false claims about the LGBT community based on discredited research and junk science. The intention is to denigrate LGBT people in its battles against same-sex marriage, hate crimes laws, anti-bullying programs and the repeal of the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy. To make the case that the LGBT community is a threat to American society, the FRC employs a number of “policy experts” whose “research” has allowed the FRC to be extremely active politically in shaping public debate. Its research fellows and leaders often testify before Congress and appear in the mainstream media. It also works at the grassroots level, conducting outreach to pastors in an effort to “transform the culture.”
There is a whole article on this group and its current leader, Tony Perkins (you can’t make this stuff up,) on their website if you would like to check it out. Remember, this is but one group out of many that the Center includes in its “HateWatch”. So it was with malice toward none that we came across in the Congressional Record of Sept. 19 last this contribution to our nation’s dialogue by none other than Vicki Jo from Mo.:

Accusing the SPLC of “spreading discrimination against those who believe in traditional Christian values” and standing up for the FAMILY RESEARCH COUNCIL because of their unquestionable stalwart Christian policies. Its funny (sort of) that this shooting incident became a truncheon to try to beat a “liberal” civil rights group with instead of another example of why we need more gun control. But it seems Vicki Jo does have allies or mentors or cronies as but two days before her impassioned public stance another voice from the T-Party heartland was heard from- on the same topic: AMERICA’S INHERENT FREEDOMS ARE BEING ATTACKED — (House of Representatives – September 17, 2013)
–- (Mr. HUELSKAMP asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. HUELSKAMP. Mr. Speaker, freedom of speech and religion and the recognition of the God-given dignity of every human life are core principles upon which America was founded, but these inherent freedoms are being attacked. The Southern Poverty Law Center is one of the worst offenders–targeting and persecuting Americans who stand up for their moral convictions. This group routinely attacks mainstream, pro-family organizations, slandering them with false accusations of hatred and bigotry. Motivated by their inflammatory rhetoric, a gunman burst into the Family Research Council’s lobby last year and shot a security guard, later admitting that the assault was inspired by the Southern Poverty Law Center’s hate list. We cannot let the beacon of freedom, known as America, become home to hate groups and other extremists, including those who slander their political opponents.”
Tim Huelskamp is from Kansas,
Rep. Tim speaking at a previous Values Voter Summit sponsored by the Family Research Council
( BY Brian Tashman on Friday, 9/20/2013)
“Rep. Tim Huelskamp (R-KS), who bravely opposed federal
aid to all those greedy Northeasterners affected by Hurricane Sandy, is
now boasting about his support for a House GOP plan to kick four to six million people off the food stamp program. As Jonathan Chait details,
the GOP’s draconian food stamp cuts were coupled with a push to
preserve excessive subsidies for farmers and agribusinesses, which the
GOP refused to cut as much as the Obama administration proposed. And,
surprise surprise, Huelskamp’s family has greatly benefited from such government aid: Huelskamp
has been able to see a need for federal relief closer to his home. His
brother’s farm received $1.6 million in federal subsidies from 1995 to
2011. The federal payouts included more than $30,000 for disaster
subsidies. Huelskamp’s parents’ farm has also received subsidies.
Politico reported in 2011 that the farm took in $1.1 million in federal
farms subsidies from 1995 to 2009.While
speaking to right-wing talk show host Steve Deace yesterday, Huelskamp
had fun sticking it to all those whiney poors trying to receive food
assistance for their families. Huelskamp pointed to Jason Greenslate, a
California surfer who has been all over Fox News, as the face of American food stamp recipients. Media Matters points out that
“labeling Greenslate a representative of SNAP recipients flies in the
face of readily available data, which shows that the fraud and waste
rate in the SNAP program is less than 1 percent and that 41 percent of
food stamp recipients live ‘in a household with earnings.’” Huelskamp
joked that his two kids always feel “starved” under his watch, but that
with his vote to cut food assistance, he only “decided to starve a
surfer by the name of Jason in California who has decided that he’s not
going to get a job in life because he gets food stamps.” “Go pick up
trash in a road ditch,” Huelskamp said, “you got to do something. There
are 3.5-4 million American adults who are able-bodied, have no
dependence and what do we require them to do to get a free check for
food? Nothing.”
Both Tim and Vicki Jo have expressed outrage that the “anti-Christian” intolerance of the Southern Poverty Law Center had caused the wounding of a security guard at the FAMILY RESEARCH COUNCIL you would be hard pressed to find any statements from either concerning the murder of Dr. George Tiller while attending his church on Sunday morning (May 31, 2009) in Wichita, Kansas – the home state of Rep. Tim himself- . Dr. Tiller was shot in the head at close range because his killer probably knew that the notoriously-publicized “abortion doctor” wore body armor at the suggestion of the FBI because of all the threats on his life by Jesus loving patriots. The FAMILY RESEARCH COUNCIL was one of the prime sponsors of this year’s “Value Voters Conference” recently held in Washington, D.C. I don’t think its a stretch to state that most of all the Haters in Washington were there. I wonder if the breakfast buffet included lox and bagels and cream cheese. I should qualify that snarky comment by acknowledging that among the guest speakers at this years shindig was a guy named Mark Levin- from what I never understand a big-shot right-wing talk radio “personality” who heads some type of “non-profit” legal foundation (it once nominated Rush Limbaugh for a Nobel Peace Prize) that is funded by among others the Koch brothers, the Scaife family, the Olin Foundation, etc. -where the Haters get to put up their big bucks. Anyway I don’t know for certain if this guy is Jewish (please ha-shem, let him be a shabbos goy). Upon being introduced by the “2X Winner of the Lifetime Achievement Award, Tony Perkins himself, he walked on stage and was offered a stool by Mr. Perkins and as he sat said to the assembled Christian-Family-Values-Crowd, “Can I get a drink?”, and then remembered where he was and immediately offered, “No, I don’t drink.”, and then launched into some claptrap about taking our country back which is always code for anti-immigration-Black-Jewish-Gay-Lesbian-fill in a minority -speak. I didn’t see Rep. Tim’s name on the speakers list nor did I notice Vicki Jo’s but a perusal of this all-star roster reads like a who’s who of ANTI-OBAMAcare. If I may, a brief aside: Huelskamp’s 1st Congressional District in Kansas was once represented by, United States Secretary of Health and Human Services, Kathleen Sebelius’ father-in-law. Its her office of course who is responsible for implementing the Affordable Healthcare Act.
In America there’s always plenty of hate to go around. Pick a year, a place, take some darts and throw them at a map and I’ll show you where and when some horrific thing happened. The Tea Party thrives on this and its brother, FEAR. They now show up in their patriotic regalia and flags waving and in some places their shining guns and always they are armed and swathed with their CODED language of hate. You don’t have to listen too hard but I am always angered that our so-called “legit” media doesn’t question or point this out enough. This week there’s an election – a special election thanks to Governor Christie’s machinations- for U.S. Senator. Most people -who follow NJ politics, go ahead raise your hand- know that Cory Booker, Mayor of Newark is running. He’s running against a myopically glib Tea Party pol named STEVE LONEGAN.
For some reason this guy is making a race out of it both figuratively and literally. Anyway a few weeks back he made a few remarks- I saw on TV- that as far as I know were never followed up on and I wonder-as always-if its just my always present paranoia or did someone else pick up on LONEGAN’S words:
“MAYOR BOOKER HAS BEEN ANOINTED BY HOLLYWOOD. THE HOLLYWOOD ELITE HAVE DESCENDED FROM THEIR PENTHOUSE APARTMENTS IN THE BEL AIR HOTEL FROM THE HEIGHTS OF HOLLYWOOD HILLS TO COME TO NEW JERSEY TO TELL US WHO OUR NEXT U.S. SENATOR WILL BE – THE THIRD U.S. SENATOR FROM CALIFORNIA”
 |
Then he went on to let everyone know that Booker wanted to “ram Obamacare down everyone’s throat”. A curious and yet not too surprising an utterance. Everyone from Henry Ford to Marlon Brando from J.Lee Rankin to Liberty Lobby from Louis McFadden to Richard Nixon knows what a narrow-minded (and bigoted) fear-mongering pol means when he uses “Hollywood” in such a context. Nobody can convince me otherwise and STEVE LONEGAN CANDIDATE FOR U.S. SENATE FROM NEW JERSEY IS AN UNABASHED ANTI-SEMITE AND NO ONE HAS CALLED HIM ON IT – UNTIL NOW. Equating Mr. Booker with the two JEWISH WOMEN senators from California he showed off his TEA PARTY math and underlining thought.
