It is that time of year – cold weather (despite the imminent peril of AGW), 10 foot tall inflatable snowman scenes, and 24 hour sales everywhere you turn. Yes, my friends, it is time for the 2009 Tree of Bullhockey to be displayed on the lawn of the West Chester Courthouse. What is that, you ask? A recent article posted on the Evening Bulletin website describes this ‘tree’:
...a gaudy, out-of-place, and inappropriate fourth monstrosity of a display tarnishing the courthouse lawn for the third year in a row. It’s called the Tree of Knowledge, a grotesque and kitschy shrine to Godlessness sponsored by the Freethought Society of Greater Philadelphia.
….
Indeed, the Freethought Society and their founder Margaret Downey are agents of the Enemy in every regard and their garish tree replete with “ornaments” in the shape of laminated book covers by prominent atheists is in poor taste. Of the hundreds of book titles hanging on the tree some include A Devil’s Chaplain and The God Delusion by avowed doubter Richard Dawkins, Misquoting Jesus by Bart Ehrman, and The End of Faith by Sam Harris.
Personally, I’d say the ‘freethought’ society corners the market on misquoting Jesus. Perhaps they are still fuming since Jesus bi**hslapped them out of his Father’s house 2000 + years ago.
On this ‘tree’ you can find any number of book covers claiming the fraud of Christianity, yet not one book cover proclaiming the fraud of islam. If they truly had the courage of their atheist convictions, they would be impelled to denounce islam as the biggest fraud of mankind. But they won’t, and that cowardice reveals their true bigoted nature.
You can view photos of from last year’s mockery of a tree HERE. The 2009 tree displays the same junk from last year.
Monochromtic Crowd
Michelle Malkin details the blinding whiteness of the MSNBC masthead:
Palin-bashing racial bean-counters in monochromatic houses shouldn’t throw stones.
Ouch.
Last Saturday, I didn’t have to accidentally click on MSNBC to view monochromatic liberalism, I found it just outside Philadelphia in suburban West Chester. Lois Herr and supporters gathered at the steps of the Chester County Courthouse to smear conservatism and receive endorsement from the pro abortion group called NOW. What stood out, apart from the anemic turnout, was the absolute lack of diversity that supposedly defines ‘big tent’ liberalism. Lois Herr’s supporters at this event were exclusively white and middle-aged. A narrowly defined group in the 16th Congressional District, yet Lois Herr claims to speak for all.
I was able to get video from inside the Herr rally, check out the attendees yourself and decide. More photos from the rally can be found on FLICKR
West Chester Unplugged has broken down votes from last week’s school board election:
The gap among the four Republican candidates was only 170 votes, compared to a 658 vote gap among the four Democrat candidates. More Republican straight ticket votes (4,284) were cast compared to Democrat straight ticket votes (2,313). This is relatively close to the county-wide straight ticket breakdown – there were 18,276 GOP straight ticket votes compared to only 9,676 Dem straight ticket votes. That leads one to believe that the GOP was far more effective in promoting their ticket compared to the Dems. (Note: the straight ticket figures do not include Thornbury, Delaware County; Delaware County’s election web site, like the rest of the county’s web site, is lacking for details compared to other counties.)
I want to thank Creighton for taking the time to put together this detailed review of the voting results of this race. It was a hot race that captured the attention of local media since the primary in May. Despite a hostile press and smear campaigns waged by a local ‘peace’ group, the Republican candidates prevailed and swept this election.
Yes We Did
Another beautiful rally in West Chester celebrating American exceptionalism.
Join us every Saturday at the corner of High & Market Streets, West Chester, Pa 11:00 till Noon.
Well, we all knew it would happen.
I’m b-a-a-a-a-a-c-k…. For the past several months, I have been a bit off-key, folks. Some of you have asked where I’ve been. Well, I’ve been here, but sometimes life is what happens when you’re making your plans
I’d say she has been a bit ‘off-key’ all her life….but I don’t want to take away from her perceived ’specialness’.
The words of a peacemaker?
Almost two years ago, we faced a group of nothing less than thugs and bullies on our (yes, “our”) street corner. We saw them for what they were – a violent, hate-filled, stop-at-nothing, truly fascist group controlled by the money powers in this country and egged on by the ignorant. Call it what it is: I called them for what they are, the “brown shirts” of our time – and that is exactly what they are. They have not changed in nature but cleaned up their act once their direct ties to the Republican Party became apparent and they entered the realm of formal party politics. Their signs are toned down, their most vicious dogs have been called off (at least, if they are there, they are relatively muzzled now out of nothing but political concerns), they make a great showing of faked “respectability.” But they still are what they are.
Poor, deluded Karen, that corner is as much the Sheepdogs as it is yours – get over it – you own nothing. The Sheepdogs have been fortunate enough to build bridges with Republican leaders, and have never hid our connection, instead proudly proclaimed it. Unlike the CCPM that has been disowned by the Chester County Democrats, we found support and mentoring from the Chester County Republicans.
Yes, we are still waiting for our checks from Blackwater – I’m assuming that is what she meant by the Sheepdogs being ‘controlled by money powers’. We’ve heard this line before and Karen proves the point that you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.
I laugh at the use of discriptors such as “thugs and bullies” – how many CCPM members have been arrested on OUR corner? How many CCPM members have been charged with aggravated assault, simple assault, and REAP? Lets take a walk down memory lane:
The Sheepdogs are a ever increasing group of honorable veterans, mothers and fathers of soldiers currently serving, and proud patriots that simply love our country. We are mainstream America at its finest. We are Sheepdogs – and the difference is everything:
Rich Davis organized a picture perfect rally and after party. As I told Mary Lou, I always feel a thousand times happier attending a rally, this one went far and above any expectation. Kudos to Rich for making this day happen.
I wasn’t the only one feeling the love, a pedestrian walking past me observed out loud that he prefers our side of the street. I couldn’t agree more!
The rally attracted all kinds of attention, from near constant honks from passing motorists to a mysterious Moped motorist. Mr. Moped revisited our corner twice, with video camera in hand, and was greeted with cheers both times. We are just cool like that.
The sight of men in denim and leather caused bouts of abject terror with the left side of the street. The smallest of their bunch tried to instigate a fight, but Rich Davis wisely intervened and saved this person from an embarrassing situation.

Daily Local’s own gadfly about town actually showed up early for this rally, you can read his report HERE
Donning green wristbands, the Sheepdogs stand in solidarity with the people of Iran.
The recent elections in Lebanon are a clear example. The progressive normalization of Iraq is another. It would be a shame, particularly in the face of such regional progress, if our passivity gave carte blanche to a tyrannical regime to finish off the dissidents and persist with its revolutionary plans.
Delayed public displays of indignation may be good for internal political consumption. But the consequences of Western inaction have already materialized. Watching videos of innocent Iranians being brutalized, it’s hard to defend silence.

It was a fateful day back in January when the head of the current administration signed an executive order to close Guantanamo . People who like to dress in orange jumpsuits were ecstatic:
The Obama administration, fearing a battle with Congress that could stall plans to close Guantanamo, has drafted an executive order that would reassert presidential authority to incarcerate terrorism suspects indefinitely, according to three senior government officials with knowledge of White House deliberations
