Rats Jump Ship Ahead of Pest Control

Posted by John Crutchfield on Thursday, April 30, 2009 8:51:35 AM
Arlen Schpecter mutht think we is too dum to thee throo hith dethpicable ploy to hang onto hith theat!  Specter chose to betray the party that sustained him for thirty years rather than face a tough challenge in the primaries next time around.  Indeed, republicans would like to unseat him and you can bet they'll be spending plenty of money to do it.
 
But, what of Specter's character?  By declaring his alegience to the enemy, he has only confirmed what many have known for some time.  The man is a liberal and therefore belongs in the enemy camp.  His departure is a welcome sight to many.  Some say: "good riddance".  For the record, I think they're right.  The republican party is only diluted by Specter's RINO credentials.
 
Specter's move is based on nothing more than a desire to keep his job.  The interests of his country come second.  This is so transparently self serving, its hard to imagine anyone could support him again, republican or democrat!  There is nothing principled about this move.  The man didn't even have the courage to face a challenge from the party's grassroots.  He could learn a thing or two from his colleague, Joe Lieberman.
 
Connecticut democrats refused to nominate Lieberman in his last bid for office, punishing him for his friendship with John McCain. But that didn't stop him.  Lieberman went on to campaign and win as an independent.  Although I disagree with his liberal platform, Lieberman deserves a certain amount of respect for being man enough to face his primary opponent and take his lumps.  That took more gumption than Specter's cowardly, stiff tailed scamper down the gangplank to the relative safety of the communal infestation that dominates the US Senate.

Star of the DNC?

Posted by John Crutchfield on Thursday, September 04, 2008 8:14:57 AM
Those who think Barak Obama was the star of the Democratic National Convention could be mistaken.  The real star of the convenion might just be, well - a real star.
 
Some images stir the imagination more than others.  With thirty years in the sign/graphic design industry, I've become acutely aware that images convey a thought or emotion or promote a message of one kind or another.  And sometimes I can't help but wonder what the designers were thinking when they put together graphic logos to identify a product they're peddling.  Take for instance, the banners that adorned the Pepsi Center for the Democratic National Convention.
 
The banners draping the outside of the Pepsi Center featured a bright red star suspended over a multi-hued background image that appears to represent the Rockies.  Putting aside the Rocky Mountain High for a moment, we're left wondering if this image accurately defines the heart and soul of today's democratic party.
 
What comes to mind when you see a red star?  For those of us growing up in the Cold War Era, the red star is a symbol of Marxism and a threat to democracy.  The flag of the USSR displays a red star above the hammer and sickle.  Russian military vehicles of every description were identified by a big red star proudly on display even as they snuffed out millions of innocent lives.
 
Indeed, there are lterally hundreds of tragic cases of brutality that have been the result of people surrendering their liberty to those who promise to right every wrong.  History proves that yeilding to the nanny state ultimately leads to tyranny.
 
Wikipedia describes the red star as "a symbol of communism as well as broader socialism in general."  To paraphrase, it goes on to say: "The [red] star has become a symbol representing socialism of all varieties."  Would that be the DNC variety as well?
 
For some insight into what the red star means to millions of citizens of the world, go to: www.howdesign.com/article/symbolstory/
The author, Nikita Prokhorov, knows the significance of the symbol that has been associated with some of the most atrocious crimes against humanity in all of history.
 
Dutch brewer, Heineken currently uses a red star as part of its logo.  A Hungarian investors group actually sued Heineken in an effort to get the company to stop using the symbol of communism in this former Soviet Bloc country.  Not surprisingly, Heineken claims there's no connection to the red star of communism and its logo, but that means little to the Hungarians who suffered under the iron fisted Stalinists.  The red star, to them, is what the swastika is to Jews.
 
Now the democrats have adopted the red star symbol for reasons that aren't clear to most main stream Americans, but it is a cause for concern to some of us.  Either they knew what they were doing or they didn't.  Which one was it?  Does it matter?  You bet it does.  If the democratic party leadership knew what they were doing, that means they have endorsed the symbol of opression and the ideology of Karl Marx has been adopted as a core principle driving today's democratic agenda. 
 
We may have just witnessed the overt rebranding of the democratic party.  What's more, images of the Pepsi Center adorned with big red stars sent a not so subtle message to socialists around the world that they have a like minded sympathizer to root for and support in November.  No doubt the Democratic National Committee is anticipating a huge cash windfall as all those Chicago dishwashers, gardeners and domestic help of every description max out their $28,500 political contributions.  How do they do it in these tough economic times?
