Another one bites the dust

2 comments

This is my last post on Hennessy’s View, at least for some time.  

My work for the St. Louis Tea Party movement is very important to me and, in my opinion, to you.  Our government is moving quickly to obliterate all vestiges of the free market republic that America once was.  With the Republican party in disarray and the Democrat party in the hands of statist despots, the tea partiers are the only thing standing between liberty and tyranny. 

I choose liberty.

To better focus my attention on restoring the republic, reducing the scope of government, and rewriting Congress in the 2010 elections, I am mothballing Hennessy’s View.   I will continue blogging on St. Louis Tea Party’s web site.  

Joining me on that site will be several other servant-leaders of the tea party movement in St. Louis.  While I will miss writing about global warming nuts, pro-life movement, and party politics, I feel that God has put me in a position to make a real difference for our children and grandchildren.  It would be a sin for me to ignore the opportunity and the duty He presents.

Please replace any bookmarks to this site with http://stlouisteaparty.com.

Thank you,

Bill Hennessy

Overwhelm the Nazis

leave a comment

The American Nazis are holding a rally on the Arch grounds at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday, April 18.  The Anti-Defamation League is sponsoring a counter-rally in Forest Park at the same time.

I will be at Forest Park.

So I have some strong disagreements with some of the sponsoring organizations of the counter-rally.  Big deal.  If the point of the counter-rally is to oppose Nazism, then I can easily look past those differences for a couple of hours.  We’ll pick up the other fights later.

Details:

Date: April 18, 2009 
Time: 2:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m. 
Venue: Art Hill in Forest Park

KTVI’s Hard News Guy . . . Sgt. Bilko

5 comments

Just watch. And laugh. Then call KTVI’s General Manager, Spencer Koch at 314-213-2222, and demand an apology for Sgt. Bilko’s latest travesty reported on Gateway Pundit.

Too good to be true? Ask Charles: cjaco@charlesjaco.com.

On April 13, Charles Jaco reported on KTVI News that an organization called The Constitution Party sponsored and helped organize the St. Louis Tea Party.  Jaco also claimed that The Constitution Party is a white supremacist group.  Despite no evidence of either claim, and the indisputible fact that The Constitution Party had no hand in the St. Louis Tea Party, Jaco persists with his lie and KTVI management refuses to apologize.

Fox 2 News St. Louis Lies About Tea Parties **UPDATE**

10 comments

Charles Jaco of Fox 2 News in St. Louis filed a fabricated story claiming that a) the St. Louis Tea Party is organized by something called The Constitution Party, and b) the Constitution Party is an extremist, white supremacist group.

I will say only this:

1.  Neither Dana Loesch nor I is a member of the Constitution Party.  I did not know of such an organization before April 14, 2009

2.  The Constitution Party did not sponsor, organize, or advise the organizers of the St. Louis Tax Day Party or the February 27th Tea Party

3.  I have no evidence that The Constitution Party is a white supremacist group

4.  Charles Jaco has no evidence contradicting any of the above assertions

In short, Jaco lied.  Every person attending today’s Tea Party in Kiener Plaza at 6:30 p.m. deserves an on-air apology by the general manager, Spencer Koch.   

UPDATE:  I just spoke a manager at KTVI.  PLEASE DO NOT SEND THEM TEA BAGS.  I didn’t realize that they handle suspicious packages as carefully (FBI) as the government.  My stupidity at play here, folks.  I’m sorry.  

If you have already followed my bad advice,  please email.  I’ll contact the station and let them know.  

Again, my apologies to you and to Channel 2

If you would like to see such an apology, contact Channel 2.  In fact, why not send them some tea bags?

The Anti-American Presidency

5 comments

Barack Obama’s shameful and anti-American behavior this past weekend in Europe deserves the kind of scorn reserved for degenerate traitors like Benedict Arnold, the Rosenbergs, and Alger Hiss. 

On Thursday in London, the President of the United States transferred America’s economic sovereignty from we, the people, to a small group of European central bankers. 

In the words of former Clinton staffer Dick Morris, Obama “nullified the Declaration of Independence.”  Specifically, Obama signed an agreement to create the Financial Stability Board comprised of European central banks and the Chairman of the Federal Reserve.  The FSB shall have the authority of “regulation and oversight to all systemically important financial institutions, instruments, and markets…[including] systemically important hedge funds.”   

Having singlehanded, and in violation of the Constitutional requirement of obtaining the Senate’s advice and consent for treaties, Obama went on to the continent to humiliate and denigrate his country.

Describing the United States—the country of which he is head of state and of government—to European students, Obama saidAmerica has shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive” to its allies

Next, Obama promised to begin unilateral nuclear disarmament, leaving the whole world naked in the face of aggression from malevolent super-powers and rogue states like North Korea, Iran, and, potentially, Pakistan.  Obama’s disarmament promise came hours after North Korea test-fired an ICBM capable of reaching Hawaii or Alaska.

Finally, faced with brazen hostility from North Korea, Obama turned, not to his own power as President of the most powerful economic and military country the planet has ever known, but to effeminate and corrupt United Nations.  

I have few human feelings for this shadow of a man.  He is stupid, arrogant, childish, spoiled, naive, and dangerous.  He has sold the greatest nation on earth to envious European bureaucrats in order to obtain for himself the fleeting praise of shallow people.  He has, with the help of millions of selfish and dimwitted American voters, undone 230 years of American progress and centuries of Western philosophical thought.  His work would not be more effective had he gone back in time and convinced the mothers of Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Aquinas, Locke, Rousseau, Adam Smith, and Thomas Jefferson to obtain late-term abortions. 

There is one distinction between Barack Obama and the traitors I named at the top of this post.  The others failed to bring about the destruction of the United States.  Obama succeeded.

Now it falls on us—the Americans—to restore the republic Obama destroyed.  

NOTE:  When I wrote this on election night, I was only half serious.  Many of these “predictions” were mere sarcasm.  In other words, Obama’s march toward totalitarianism is worse than my exaggerations!
