TEA PARTY, ABUSE OF NATURE IN GAY MARRIAGE, SOMALI PIRATES AND AGAIN THE VANGUARD LIES

By Oladimeji Abitogun

A Tale of T-Baggers and a Sour Tea Party

I have been at tea-parties, it is not strange in mid-America, what I have never witnessed is this on-going nonsense called tea party. I am talking of the convergence of T-Baggers on several American cities, claiming to be aping the 1773 Boston Tea-Party which gave birth to the American Revolution of 1776 during which the nation of United States of America was born.

It would always be a wrong combination, to have Dr. Ron Paul and ex-speaker Newt Gingrich together on the same project. Congressman Ron Paul, Republican from Texas, is the face of the handful but loud Libertarian Party, the economic conservatives, in the United States. He made an unsuccessful bid for the presidency during last years primaries. His rejection by the electorates was in the helm of total humiliation. His co-traveler in the charade of tea-party is Newt Gingrich, former Republican speaker of the House of Representative during the years of President Bill Clinton.

He was largely responsible for orchestrating the impeachment of President Clinton for perjury over Monica Lewinsky’s affair. Belonging to the Republican is the denominator for both Paul and Gingrich.  Those familiar with the antecedents of these two gentlemen feel that they have little in common. Paul seems to have some grassroots appeal, although not much of that was noticeable during his failed presidential trial. Ron Paul’s political base is responsible for the original idea of the present tea-party protest. But Gingrich and other Republican opportunist have since jumped on the band wagon to vent their frustration largely because they were defeated by Barrack Obama during the 2008 presidential elections.

It is true that the 1773 Boston-Tea party amongst several other issues unequivocally rejected the excessive colonial tax burden of the time. The ultra-Right wing, fabulously rich people behind the on-going, so called tea-party, an exaggerated comparison know that there are no similarities between the historic event of 1773, if you live in Nigeria, it would remind you of the rent-a-crowd two-million man march led by Mr. Daniel Kanu in the Abacha years.

They say they are protesting for tax reform. No they are not; they do not want to accept the leadership and the well-meaning reforms of President Barrack Obama that is the plain truth.

Newt Gingrich and his pack of fixed (sorry, Fox) News gangster like Sean Hannity (can actually be mistaken for anarchy), Laura Ingram are the ones that tore the key of the diabolical agenda behind the silly tea-party. The plan is, I suspect, to lure Obama. Since more than sixty-one percent of Americans continue to endorse Obama’s reform, it would be hard for those people to succeed in their plan to see Obama fail.

And when Ingraham, the feisty lady of Fox talk radio shows up and Rusty Humphrey display his garrulous intellectual dishonesty, something they did not hide in the thick of 2008 presidential campaigns, then  no one can be deceived that they are all up to some political Monday morning quarter backing and mischief.

They are bound to fail. They were the ones that teamed up in the first place, with former president Bush to put the pin in the bubble of an otherwise prosperous economy.

They are not honest. If they were, they would own up that an avoidable war was largely responsible for driving up the budgetary deficit under Bush. They would also know, if they have the courage to be sincere, that their stance against immigrant workers also contributed to the situation. But they are not capable of simple honesty. And Obama has been sincere in his dealings with us.

So the money they cannot give up for the sake of the country, the United States of America, is what they waste on millions of tea bags. They say they are protesting tax. Very silly idea. The moral hypocrisy of the Grand Old Party (G. O. P), Republican bigot is no longer hidden. They would encourage the children of middle class families to join the military, to lay down their lives but is it not ridiculous that they are not excited to give up their dollars to redeem, rebuild and recoup the nation? Sad and shameful. Republicans remain sucking bad losers.



“You Cannot Abuse Nature without Suffering the Consequence”

At the dinner hosted for President Barack Obama on the night Thursday April 16, 2009 at Mexico’s National Museum of Anthropology, President Calderon of Mexico said and I crave his permission to quote “You cannot abuse nature without suffering the Consequence”

I believe that the gloomy lifestyle homosexuals is a flagrant abuse of nature and I expect that the world someday suffer the consequence, not necessarily the same way or form that ancient Sodom and Gomorrah did as recorded in the Holy Bible.

That consequence would probably come in the rearing of deviant offsprings by Homosexual couples. Another ugly consequence could come in the dividing number of productive men and women that would guarantee the continuity of humanity. When the world comes to that point where there are not enough people to carry on legacies of years of human civilization, like already being witnessed in Germany and other places in Europe, the world would begin a self-detract and possibly face irresistible decay.

That is the likely consequence of the gale of homosexual union blowing across America

Children of African immigrants everywhere must continually be taught who we are and that homosexuality is filthy and it is an abuse of nature. Governor David Paterson of New York, an African American, tragically does not know the true way of Africans. If he did, he would refrain from trying to re-introduce a once defeated proposal to legalize homosexual marriage in his State. What is the matter with some of our African-American brothers? They always accept the demeaning insult that the issue of homosexuality is likeable to the civil right issue of racism and discrimination.

The day they would dress up two he goats, may be two cows for marriage, they would try to demean blacks again that “oh, it is also a civil right issue”. Quite disgusting.

Mr. Paterson should buy himself a flight ticket and go on holiday in Africa. If he succeeds at finding two animals, of the same sex, whether in the wild, or the domesticated types, copulating, the way men do with men, or women with women in America, I would show understanding with his legislative proposals on homosexual marriage. I know he would not find that amongst animals.

The Governor is guilty of joining with judicial activists to abuse nature. May God bless his soul and give him the grace to know who he is.

 

STOPPING THE MENACE OF PIRACY OFF THE COAST OF AFRICA

What is the Matter with Republicans.

People who often accuse Republicans of bigotry and intellectual dishonesty have understudied American publications of right learning for years.

Republicans can be ruthless, vicious and wicked. While everybody is applauding President Obama for making a fine call to supplant the menace of Somali Pirates last week, the only fault that Republicans find in him happens to be in the quality of thanks that Obama extended to the Navy Seals who took three of the four pirates down with precision, the three high seas hostage takers were creamed on the orders of President Barrack Obama. A flawless operation which used a simple complex matter to underscore the military might of the United States of America.

We all must appreciate the good job by the military only that I wish that the military in Africa, especially Nigeria, can take a cue from this impressive lesson and decide what to do about the kidnappers and pseudo pirates in the Niger-Delta. Nigeria Military must do it themselves or the ball game will change when the international military comes to secure the peace in the Niger-Delta.

 

VANGUARD NEWSPAPER LIES AGAIN

Opportunities exist for media outfits to flourish and shine when they are committed to authenticity. When they do not embrace the sobering reality of caution and truth, they get exposed and suffer maximum humiliation in the process.

One can only thank God that the democracy that the media championed while we were in bondage under the military, would now help to engineer self-correcting and much needed clensening in the media. The Vanguard Newspaper of Nigeria is one such huge embarrassment that must first reform itself and its reporters on account of their outright fabrication intent to misinform and mislead unsuspecting people.

Our conduct in the matter of alleged involvement of Mrs. Oyindamola Amuka in ritual murder can be attested to by everyone who has been following our reports and opinions since the story broke. We have nothing personal against Mrs. Amuka or her husband, Mr. Samuel Pemu- Amuka. The simple issue of responding in a cool way to allegation of murder is what we seek from Mr. Amuka.

But he waited to prove that he is an influential and powerful Nigerian. The only thing that is powerful in this matter is the truth, the rule of law and the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

Mr. Amuka and his deceptive workers at Vanguard Newspaper are unraveling faster than we could have envisaged because of the power of truth. It was the power of truth that smoked Mrs. Amuka out of her hiding in the United Kingdom after the reports of her alleged crime was published. The power of that truth is at work again and Vanguard should beware. They lied again on Saturday 18th April, 2009, when they claimed that Chief Giwa Amu is the solicitor to pointblanknews.com. Chief Amu is the lawyer to Mr. Steve Ugwu- Chinua, the courageous independent journalist who exposed the alleged crimes of Mrs. Amuka- Pemu. And make no mistake about it; pointblanknews.com will back Mr. Ugwu-Chinua to a hilt in getting to the truth.

However, our solicitors are Ayodele, Olugbenga & Co. and the formidable team of lawyers that would de-construct the issue of his being packaged by Amuka’s and Nigeria Police is led by Mr. Olugbenga Fabilola and Mr. Ayodele Adejuyigbe. If the Vanguard cannot be trusted to report the truth on who represents who in the Law Court, then they cannot be trusted on the substance of any other thing as such.

They tried planting several lies through us against Amuka and Ugwu-Chinua in the past, it did not work, it would be hard for this new strategy to work as well.

They said Ugwu-Chinua was dismissed from the Police Force for alleged extortion, we investigated that information and found out that the police never came to court to substantiate that allegation and that the matter had been dismissed by a court in the past

A kinswoman of the Amuka’s also wrote to pointblanknews.com and alleged that lawyer Amu had conned her over a land deal in the past. We investigated every allegation and we found out that a particular woman was being used to malign the human right’s lawyer on an honest business deal.

Why are the Amukas and their emissaries not capable of playing or fighting fair.

We cannot stop them from their parade of naked shame. The court sure will.

We are not under illusion that Vanguard team is not acting alone. There is this unwarranted suspicion in some quarters, especially the former customary mainstream media in Nigeria, that internet based news organizations are treats to traditional media.

Elsewhere in the world, the internet is often celebrated as a welcome expansion of the available media tools for journalists and all categories of media practitioners. What should be celebrated with excitement and possible broadening of the productive possibilities for Nigeria professionals is now being exploited to arouse blackmail, suspicion and persecution especially against pointblanknews.com.

When we practiced in Nigeria, particularly, in the so called mainstream media, in Nigeria, we did not play second fiddle to any of our colleagues. Indeed, we excelled now, we would shine further.

Impartiality dictates that Mr. Samuel Amuka-Pemu should first stand down or step down, as the grand patron of the Newspaper proprietors Association of Nigeria pending the determination of the alleged involvement of his wife, Mrs. Oyindamola Amuka in the alleged ritual murder.

As the people at Vanguard are joking if they think that by blackmailing us, and concocting silly lies against us, the matter will go away.

They are so shallow that they think the public would be bamboozled and easily deceived. Not so fast. Nigeria is being rescued from the predatory and manipulative practices of disgraceful media houses like the Vanguard. And upon such worthy cause lies our consolation and justification for publishing a story that no one dare to touch for more than two years.

Our lawyers shall act and the God of truth shall arise and we indeed shall be vind icated.
