David Yeagley is the great-great-grandson of Comanche leader Bad Eagle. 
The US Secret Service is investigating the Loudoun, Virginia Republicans for its Halloween cartoon depiction of Obama as a zombie with a bullet hole in his head. It was in a simple email ad for the Leesburg, Va. Halloween parade.
The political page is clearly playing on the Halloween monster theme, the new Walking Dead television series, and scary Democrat Communist policy which threatens to destroy America for ever.
“This is a disgusting and violent portrayal of the president of the United States,” said Democratic Party of Virginia spokesman Brian Coy.
But, it was okay for Hollywood (Gabriel Range) to make a movie about assassinating President George Bush. Death of a President (2006) was all about the wonders of freedom of speech and artistic expression. And the fact that the assassin was Syrian was no insult to Syrians, right? (Why, the movie has an Arabic version.) And who cares if a white man is shot and killed? (Jeff Jacoby wrote a fine assessment of this film phenomenon: “A New Low in Bush-Hatred.”
But the Negro–the Negro president, in a Halloween cartoon, now, that’s racism! That’s offensive. That’s an outrage.
The Negro in America confuses all issues. Granted, the content of his character is precisely what is in doubt. Do we consider him because of his achievements, or because he is black? One thing is evident: we are coerced into considering him at all. Disadvantage: the Negro. By law, no less.
The Loudoun County Republicans quickly and profusely apologized and condemned the evil cartoons. They fervent outrage appeared to compete with Muslim rage over the Mohammad cartoons in Denmark.
It is, by now, with the Herman Cain defense, abundantly clear that professional white Republicans, politicians or media stars, have but one fear: to be accused of racism. They fawn over opportunities to display their transcendence, Rush Limbaugh included. They luxuriate in praising any Negro for any reason. This is their evidence of superior character. Why, they couldn’t possibly have any race preferences or natural affinities. They couldn’t possibly have a streak of anything that could be remotely associated with racism. Just ask them. Give them a microphone.
This is the inevitable result of bringing the Negro into public life. This is what happens when the Negro is up on the block for professional success or public office–especially public elected office. Is he there because he is black, or because he is eminently qualified? Because the laws of the ’60′s are what they are today, we will never know the answer to that question. All we know is, we are coerced to pretend that we consider the Negro a white man, with special privileges because of his black skin.
Whatever happens to the Negro individual, there is always the question of race. Was it because he is black? If the question is about positive qualifications, why, no! He is above his skin. If the question is about culpability or fault, then he is accused because he is black.
This inevitable dilemma creates nothing but confusion of values and wasteful conversation. This race issue, epitomized by the Negro on public stage, is crippling, denigrating, and inevitably inefficient. Politics becomes a circus, and the private business sector a side show. Real life becomes frustrating and disgusting.
Again, none of this is the American Negro’s fault. He’s simply trying to make the best of the racial circumstance he finds himself in. It was none of his doing, in the beginning.
And so we all live with established hypocrisy, no one being able to express how they really feel about anything or anyone. We’ll be sued. If we may paraphrase Shakespeare’s Hamlet, it is not conscience, but attorneys, which makes cowards of us all. Of course, their just working stiffs, trying to make a living themselves.
And so the whole ineviscerable impaction of society constipates itself in the bowels of the courts. Mercy on the judges, who abide in the stench day after day, year after year.
But, a political cartoon as a threat to “acting” president Barry? A comic strip disrespectful? What can an alien, lying, black African Communist Muslim traitor expect in the way of honor and obeisance from American patriots? Is a cartoon really that hurtful? I thought blacks had tough skin, no? Apparently not. Apparently that skin of theirs can be used to justify or condemn–anything. Tough isn’t the word. Powerfully manipulative–especially in the political hands of whites in power.
Republicans, politicians and media gurus, have proven themselves completely incompetent, dishonest, weak, and slavish. This is the lowest point in American political history.

Herman Cain source says harassment allegations raised $350,000 for campaign
Gee. Maybe the “leak” came from his own campaign. All those professional Republican conservative talkers were thrilled to speculate that is was all the work of the Democrat enemies.
Cain’s Conflicting Statements on Sexual Harassment Allegation Create More Questions

To be quite honest with you, I can’t stand politics. We have a primary election coming up here next week and I cannot wait until it’s over!
I am a faithful viewer of Jeopardy! every night and every commercial break is filled with ads made by either Democrats or Republicans bashing each other.
Instead of telling the viewers and the voters what he or she is going to do to improve their lives, they dredge up their opponent’s dirty deeds or misrepresent their opponent’s position on key issues like women’s healthcare.
It truly disgusts me.

American politics has become racialized. American culture, likewise, has become racialized.
American religion, too, has become racialized.
Many people go to church to worship, not the Christ, but the Negro. (This is explained in the You Tube video “The WASP Question” speech by Andrew Fraser.) Why? Because, for today’s Christians, it is in the Negro that we find Christ.
Liberalism has become the national religion. Those who do not wholeheartedly subscribe are the new “heretics.”
I have witnessed the “I worship the Negro” attitude in many a professional business situation. When a black person’s name is mentioned in relation to the business at hand, the tone is one of intense reverence and wondrous respect; the facial expression is one of the utmost seriousness of a worshipful nature.

Knock-out punch, there, Thras! Whew!
I think we all end up voting for who we half-way like, personality-wise. Right now, I’m thinking Bachmann, Santorum, and Perry–from the way he talked to Chris Wallace this past Sunday. Bachmann and Santorum have the least controversial records, I think.
I’ve liked Bachmann from the start, but, never thought of her as a presidential candidate.

There is a curious little fact about the Puritans.
America was NOT the first destination of the Puritans leaving England.
The first group of Puritans went to the Netherlands and lived there as exiles.
Why the Netherlands? Because the religion there — the Dutch Reformed Church — was perfectly compatible with the Puritan religion and the Dutch were entirely tolerant. There was no conflict over religion. Also, there was not racial conflict.
But, after about ten years, this group of Puritans joined those of the Mayflower for the “New World.”
Why did they prefer this to staying in the Netherlands?
Because the children of the Puritans were being assimilated into Dutch society! They were becoming little Dutchmen and Dutchwomen! Assimilation was too steep a price to pay, so they came to America. YET the only real difference here was one of language! For those who do not know this, the Dutch and the Puritan English are closely related ethnic groups, having in antiquity been the same people. English was actually originally a dialect of the ancient Dutch language. Geographical separation and the Norman Conquest changed the course of the two languages. But historically they were once one and the same.

David, you can’t seriously be thinking of voting for Perry. Lib all the way. He may have switched parties, but it hasn’t changed his thinking.

Just grin and bear it, I guess! (Politics, as usual, I mean!)
I like Michelle Bachmann too. She’s a very moral person, and she is not afraid or embarrassed of being a real woman, or, the living embodiment of what the great Senate Chaplain Peter Marshall once called,
“A woman who promotes the glory of God through her femininity”.
Michelle and her husband lovingly took in and nurtured twenty foster children while raising their own family. The fact that they cared enough to give these children a stable home life has undoubtedly made a great difference in their lives for the better.
“The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world”.
The time has come for a woman to lead the free world and I think Michelle has what it takes to get this country back on the right track.

Didn’t Limbaugh get the boot on ESPN precisely because he stated some black quarterback was fawned over because of his color, NOT his performance? I don’t see Limbaugh praising blacks. He certainly has enough parodies against blacks in politics, including Obama.

The fact that Cain’s face has been on the screen 24/7 for more than three days now, and the fact that the ‘deep thinkers’ in the media all think Cain’s enemies are going to be punished by his success, tells me the logical thought is that Cain planted the accusations himself. It was a good move. He knew it would create nothing but sympathy and support.
The “stupid white men” men, and women, lavish their affections and attention on him, (making the rest of us endure it all), offering every possible defense, are fulfilling their own self-idolizing prophecies. “This will all turn out to be in Cain’s favor,” they proclaim, as they themselves give him every possible advantage.
The man doesn’t have campaign money. So, a quick sex scandal, the kind everyone will defend him for, get’s him more time on TV than all the other candidates have had combined. All in just a few days. And it will continue.
I say his own campaign rigged this. I mean, as long as we’re all speculating.

Bad Eagle…have you ever known a black man who had a squeaky clean record? If so, please name him. I believe you are right. Another darkie trying to pull one over on us.
Perhaps he is trying to appeal to the black-loving white women in this country. After all, black men base their worth not on college degrees or vocational success, but rather on how many “Baby Mommas” they have. If he is painted as a penis pusher, then maybe he feels that he will win the white female vote.
Once the murdering LBJ sent the 82nd Airborne to Little Rock in order to enforce desegregation, it was all over for the white race. The bar was lowered, and the niggerization of America began.
Now, white girls chase these black gangsters around the halls of junior and senior high schools just hoping to become the next coal-hauler with a black baby.
It is sick, it is vile, and we reinforce this behavior by deifying any black leader that has not earned it, but rather “got it” because he just happens to be black. Hide and watch, there will be a flood of women who come out against Cain with regards to sexual impropriety. If he is like most blacks, he has a string of them.
I despise the American Black Culture of entitlement, blame, vulgarity, and violence. It’s not the skin color, it is the character. I cannot even call them fully human. They are amalgamated beasts that are more proof for devolution than evolution (to the chagrin of our liberal scientists).
If my frank and candid beliefs mark me as racist, then I suppose that the Maharishi is a racist.

12 David Yeagley // Nov 1, 2011 at 9:01 pm
And I doubted your position!
Well, what’s to be said? If a black man is running for president, or has even become president, it doesn’t change anything for anyone, really. It is a fantasy world. That is American idealism.
It really has done a lot for the most people. America really has been, by far, the best nation in the world, probably in the history of the world.
But, idealism or ideology does not eliminate race or race problems. That is simply nonsensical. Does looking the other way make things actually better? Does it not allow thing to get worse?
I suppose LBJ was successful in gathering 99% of the blacks into the Democrat Party. The blacks that do try to break away from all that certainly have their challenges, well I know.
But a black man can never be white. Sex with a white woman, making a .5 child still doesn’t make him white. Why would they want to do that, anyway? Why try to be something you’re not, and can never be?
I get the distinct impression that blacks are actually quite uncomfortable around whites.

Condi to Cain: Don’t play the race card.
Condi Rice is probably one of the most admirable black persons in the country. I wonder if her success has anything to do with the fact that she is a woman? She was always perfectly elegant, as well as brilliant and talented. And smart enough not to even think about running for president!
14 Maharishi of Mayhem // Nov 1, 2011 at 9:53 pm
Admirable? O Sultan, have you completely vetted this one? After all, you insist that vetting is necessary.
It appears that our “admirable” former Sec of State is likely a Dyke.
Her best friend is a lesbian. They own a home together and have a line of credit together.
They probably have bras and panties in the same drawer.
She does not play the race card because she does not want the attention. Being outed as a muffoid would have ruined her career in conservative circles.
O Grand Sultan, I am convinced that no one is clean….that is why I could not even run for Block Party Organizer.

Nothing in your post indicated that you were talking about yourself or applying her comments to you.
Your attempted slam of me is what is disgusting.
That’s an awful big chip on your narrow shoulders.

Of course, I’ve never misread anything, or anyone. (Har, har!!)

Why, I just assumed she was normally single (if there is such a thing). Yours is devastating news, ben Mechem. Devastating.

Pam, that lawyer link you gave is the kind of research needed in the discussion about who’s behind the Cain accusations. Of course, anything can be stretched. But, I do have an open mind about it.
Something is backfiring on someone. Cain is the beneficiary so far, but the story isn’t over.

By Jonathan Easley – 11/02/11 07:48 AM ET
Not looking good for Cain. A tangled web, indeed. But, what could he do? The press pressed him. He had to say something. But he didn’t say it appropriately. He’s really not good with communication, when it get’s right down to it. Pressure befuddles him, greatly.

I have told all my family to check out your website, not any more. I was proud that you stick up for the Native American because no one else does. So what the he// happened today? You got down with the other clowns and the three of you took off your mask. Anyway….God Bless

Wow,
I hope that BadEagle.com is not now going to fall victim to being censored by an 80 year old CATHOLIC grandmother from Ohio.
By the way, Buckeye, Yeagley does stand up for Indians. You are just to UNION blind to see that every political candidate, office-holder, is a threat to Native America. Native America has no friends in politics….especially from the heavily unionized Midwest.
Now, be a nice grandma and go find a priest to hear your confession….Bless me father for I have sinned….yada yada yada, and keep your moralizing to yourself and your Tea Party cronies.

I don’t moralize to anyone. You comment and I comment. As usual you misread my comment. I said I was proud of DY for sticking up for theAmerican Native. Why would I censor DY? Don’t pat me on the head you POS. Your hate for everyone different than you clearly shows. Maybe you should see that Priest. By the way, just what makes you so superior to the people you commented on today? Silver spoon or half black? Just asking
31 Pamela K. // Nov 2, 2011 at 12:57 pm
Marioniori,
I don’t know what comments you are talking about here, but I think you ought to explain yourself a little better before you pass judgment on anyone else. As far as my comments go, I do not think I have written anything offensive. And I don’t hide behind a mask. Speaking of wearing a”mask”, I have my own suspicions about the true identity behind yours.
32 marioniori // Nov 2, 2011 at 1:14 pm
I felt the piling on of Condolizza Rice was a little heavy handed. I should remove you from my comments. I’m sorry. I feel the rest speaks for itself. Now, what is the true identity behind me. What mask am I wearing? Please reply.

Seems to be enamored with blacks. Like Allen West and Condi Rice. That’s ok though. I just don’t subscribe to that view.
So, finally will answer your question. No silver spoon and definitely no Boons in my woodpile. And definitely would not put my eternal destiny in the hands of a pedophile priest.
37 marioniori // Nov 2, 2011 at 2:08 pm
I’ll set you straight. I am a she and not a pro. blogger. I do have a opinion as do you. I like anyone who speaks out to defend themselves. Conservative like Allen West, Condi Rice, Charles Payne, Walter Williams etc..Who seem to be decent people, I also like John Boehner, Eric Cantor, and other people who fight for me. Maybe I have a soft spot for the misunderstood because I was raised by a father who was a card carrying KKK member, Nazi party member and in the 50′s a Communist party member. I was taught to hate them all. Oh yes, I forgot, he hated Catholics, Jews, Niggers and working. And do you really believe I put my soul in the hands of pedophile priest.. Tell me how you learned to hate Catholics., etc.? We all have a different story.
38 Pamela K. // Nov 2, 2011 at 3:06 pm
I was raised in the Roman Catholic Church. I always knew about Jesus, but it was not until I willingly accepted Him into my heart as my Lord and Savior and was baptized in the Holy Spirit that I came to really know Him as a loving and merciful God and the only person who can absolve me from my sins.
The Catholic Church is a legalistic entity which promotes the worship of Mary, whom they consider part of the Godhead, and the veneration of “saints” -sinful human beings like myself-, which is idolatry. Furthermore, the Pope is a man with a fallen nature just like the rest of us. His word is not infallible. His wisdom is not infinite. Only God is infinite in His Wisdom. Only His Word is infallible..
For the past twenty five years, the local diocese in my area has been hit with so many lawsuits from victims of sexual abuse by priests that the bishop has had to close down many long-standing parishes and consolidated others much to the surprise and disappointment of many of the members of these churches in order to compensate for the enormous settlements generated from these lawsuits. While I cannot blame the current bishop for the sins of the church fathers before him, if just one priest who knew what was going on with the pedophile priests in the diocese over the years had done the right thing and started turning these criminals of the cloth over to the proper authorities then may be this would not be happening today. Instead, the families of the victims who dared to complain were given “hush money” while these child rapist-sodomists were farmed out to other parishes and Catholic schools where they had guaranteed access to more innocent child victims.
The straw that broke the camel’s back was when the priest in my former parish stood up at the pulpit one Sunday some twenty years ago and announced that the tithing money that people like my parents and others had been pressured to give over the years, “to help build the parish” to “help build the grotto to Our Lady” to “the bishop’s fund” blah, blah, blah, actually went to the families of the victimized as “hush money”. That was the day I walked out the door of the Church and never looked back.

– Pamela K
True, Pamela. But please keep in mind that the same claim of infallibility was present in the Protestant Reformer, John Calvin. His book was declared a “holy text which none might speak against.” To disagree with Calvin on doctrine meant being burned alive at the stake, as happened to Miguel Servetus and other “heretics” and “witches.” The Protestant Reformers went back, not to the Bible alone, but to the writings and teaching of Augustine. Calvin stated that his entire doctrine could be found in the writings of Augustine. Luther was an Augustinian monk. Augustine is called the “doctor of the (RC) Church.”

On Oklahoma radio today there was an brief interview with a man who I believe said he was working for that restaurant association thing–at the time of these allegations against Cain. He said if that one woman who really wants to talk is allowed to talk, Cain’s campaign is over.
I will try to locate this brief clip. I was…well, not stunned, but, saddened, I admit.

Oklahoma Consultant Claims He Witnessed Cain Harassment
Predicts end of Cain Presidential campaign if woman is allowed to talk publicly.
Jerry Bohnen
…Interviewed today on KTOK’s Mullins in the Morning, Wilson, of Wilson-Perkins-Allen Opinion Research headquartered in Washington, D.C. explained he was a witness to the incident. “I was the pollster at the National Restaurant Association when Herman Cain was head of it and I was around a couple of times when this happened and anyone who was involved with the NRA at the time, knew that this was gonna come up.”
Wilson described the woman as a low level staffer who was maybe two years out of college. “This occurred at a restaurant in Crystal City (Virginia) and everybody was aware of it,” he continued. “It was only a matter of time because so many people were aware of what took place, so many people were aware of her situation, the fact she left—everybody knew with the campaign that this would eventually come up.”
Wilson said for legal reasons, he can not discuss details of the incident. “But if she comes out and talks about it, like I said, it’ll probably be the end of his campaign.”…
44 David Yeagley // Nov 2, 2011 at 4:35 pm
I want to address other matters in these comments, but, I’m afraid I don’t have time right now. The Catholic thing is critically important, but, I will address that on another blog.
I think Cain is virtually over. I don’t appreciate the lying aspect of his response.

Marioniori, sorry that you have been offended at some of the things said here. I do not exercise a rigid control over the commentary. I try to keep vulgarity out, but, I generally let people say what they feel.
I appreciate the fact that you said what you feel, too.
46 Pamela K. // Nov 2, 2011 at 4:51 pm
You have to ask yourself, why are these ‘accusers’ surfacing now? Could it be that Cain, the one time dark horse, figuratively speaking, is now leading the race for the Republican nomination and that one of his contenders or perhaps several, have conspired together to take him out of the running?
Money is tight these days and everyone has their price. ‘Witnesses’ as well as former accusers can be bought for the right amount of money.
I only hope that if what I am speculating about is the truth than the perpetrators of this disgusting scandal are exposed and publicly humiliated for the cowards that they are!
47 Thrasymachus // Nov 2, 2011 at 4:59 pm
Just a quick note:
If the Catholic Church teaches that Mary is a part of the Godhead, how could this doctrine not contradict and abolish the doctrine of the Holy Trinity? It seems unlikely to me that this is the correct understanding of Catholic doctrine.
48 Pamela K. // Nov 2, 2011 at 5:02 pm
As a postscript I would like to add that none of the Republican candidates running for president are halo candidates!
Furthermore, if they really care about the future of America and our freedom they ought to put aside their petty issues with each other and stand united on the one issue they all agree on, which is stopping Barack Obama from being re-elected to the White House again in 2012.
49 Thrasymachus // Nov 2, 2011 at 5:09 pm
I just want to say that I’d be terribly disappointed to see two Blacks run for President, representing both major parties. But it would prove that race is not just an “innocent” and “trivial” factor in politics.
Two black candidates running simultaneously will demonstrate the true nature of race in the political sphere. It will prove that race really does play an integral part in how people think about candidates.
50 Pamela K. // Nov 2, 2011 at 5:30 pm
Thras,
The Catholic Church teaches that Mary was born without original sin and that after she conceived and bore Jesus through the power of the Holy Spirit she and her husband, Joseph, never had marital relations.
This is what I believe. Mary was conceived in sin and carried a fallen nature just like the rest of us ordinary human beings. However, God always loves to use the ordinary to perform the extraordinary. And He found favor with this young Jewish virgin. Mary’s greatest gift to humanity, aside from bearing the Messiah, was that she said yes to God’s plan for her life as the mother of His Son, knowing full well that unwed mothers in her society were stoned to death for adultery.
After Mary gave birth to Jesus, she and her husband, Joseph had other children. Jesus had two known half brothers, James and Jude, who both authored an epistle in the Bible, and at least one known half-sister, Salome, who is also mentioned in the Bible as one of His followers.
Mary was there on the day Her Son was crucified on the Cross, and like any mother of a criminal being executed, was suffering both mental and physical anguish watching the child she once carried in her womb and brought into the world die a horrible death. The only difference was, unlike the criminals that hung on crosses on either side of Jesus, Her Son was innocent of any wrongdoing.
Mary was there with the disciples in the Upper Room on Pentecost where she experienced the baptism of the “tongues of fire” or, the Holy Spirit along with the other early believers in Jesus.
But Mary died and was buried just like anyone else and her soul is now “absent from the body, and present with the Lord.”
She, like all who have died, waits in Paradise for Judgment Day.
