Rebel with a Cause

I was working on a crossword puzzle recently and one of the clues was "Rebel with a cause".

The answer was "Che", referring to Ernesto 'Che' Guevara, the Argentine, Marxist, mass-murdering revolutionary.

So, I'm guessing that the puzzle's author (Matt Ginsberg) is one of those people who have not a clue about Che's "cause".

Well, read this and get a clue:

 "Murdered By Che"
     "During his vicious campaigns to impose communism on countries throughout Latin America, Che Guevara trained and motivated the Castro regime's firing squads that executed thousands of men, women and children."

Well Said, Mr. Bleier

 ‘It should have never gotten to this point’

Vietnam vet Rocky Bleier on the NFL protests

“It’s very simply this:

This is a workplace, you are at the stadium, you are working that day, this is not a platform for protest,” Bleier told Yahoo Sports. “The American people, they can’t go to their workplace and start to protest about whatever may be happening in their life. That wouldn’t be allowed and that shouldn’t be allowed in the NFL.

“It’s not a violation of the First Amendment at all. You have off days, you can do it outside of the stadium or on other platforms, but not the game day platform. It’s a very simple question and people are making it more complex than it really is.”

Hypocritical Hypocrites

After the horrific event in Sandy Hook, CT, on December 14th
the National Rifle Association (NRA) president Wayne LaPierre publicly advocated that there be armed security at every school.

DLP  (Dummycrats, Liberals and Progressives) and the liberal MSM said that he was a, "raving lunatic who is just as dangerous as Adam Lanza." 

Armed school guards and hypocrisy

Apparently, the DLP and MSM have overlooked this:

Barack Hussein Obama's children attend a school where there are 11 armed guards with fully automatic assault rifles:

  Obama's Daughters School Has 11 Armed Guards-Not-Counting-Secret-Service

Yet Obummer remains skeptical/hypocritical:

Obama skeptical NRA proposal guns in schools

and is even tasking Vice President Joe Biden with spearheading the effort:

Biden to tackle gun violence

Oh, but wait a minute.

Is this the SAME Joe Biden, gun-owner:

   Flashback 2008-Biden: don't fool with my Beretta

Maybe Obummer should get ex-pres Bubba Clinton involved.

Ummm wait. There could be a conflict of interest there:

 Flashback: Clinton-Cops in Schools

By John Nolte:

Today, the same elite media who no doubt send their own kids to private schools that employ armed security, just can't stop howling ridicule at the NRA's idea to give every student in America those same protections. Because the NRA's idea is so appealing, as I write this, the media's going overboard, mocking it as bizarre, crazy, and out of touch.

In their zeal to rampage this left-wing agenda, the media has apparently forgotten that back in 2000, on the one-year anniversary of the Columbine shooting (which occurred with an assault weapons ban in place), President Clinton requested $60 million in federal money to fund a fifth round of funding for a program called "COPS in School," a program that does exactly what the NRA is proposing and the media is currently in overdrive mocking....

Hypocrite

1. a person who pretends to have virtues, moral or religious beliefs, principles, etc., that he or she does not actually possess, especially a person whose actions belie stated beliefs.

 

2. a person who feigns some desirable or publicly approved attitude, especially one whose private life, opinions, or statements belie his or her public statements.

Synonyms: deceiver, dissembler, pretender, pharisee.

 

I do believe that Democrat, Liberal, Progressive, Media could be added to the list of synonyms for Hypocrite.
