Selma Envy Motivates Gay Marriage Movement
Lutheran pastor Hans Fiene has maybe the best explanation of the Gay marriage movement and the outrage about Indiana’s religious liberty law that we have seen.
He says in part:
The answer is “social studies.” My generation engages in straw men, misinformation, and lies because, in every year of social studies class, we studied the civil-rights movement not as history, but as hagiography. We didn’t just learn what events happened on American soil, we were encouraged to mimic the segregation-defeating holy ones and merit for ourselves a place alongside them in glory. Combining that admonition with our general aversion to hard work, we concluded that the only thing necessary to be as righteous as the saints who fought racial injustice was to decry an injustice that no one else was. And we became so desperate to find that injustice, we lost our minds in the process.
It’s a long article and you can read it at The Federalist.

Labor Backs Delco GOP Slate
Pete Peterson has informed us that the GOP Delaware County Council ticket has been endorsed by The Delaware County Committee of the Philadelphia Building and Construction Trades Council.
That’s probably not going to increase its standing among my readers.
The ticket is all incumbent: Colleen Morrone of Concord, John McBlain of Aldan, and Mike Culp of Springfield, who is serving out the remainder of new state Sen. Tom McGarrigle’s term.
Union endorsement aside, I’m going to have no problem hitting the button for them this November. Complain all you can about the state and federal Republicans but Delco is one of the better run Pennsylvania counties.
Pete points out that Delaware County has an unemployment rate lower than the national average and is experiencing job growth. The county Republicans deserve undeniable credit for this as it was the policies of the other party that almost sent it into the tank.
I’ve actually worked with McBlain on an issue and found him to be serious, decent and dedicated.
The ticket is unopposed in the May 19 primary and may very well be unopposed in the General Election on Nov. 3. For the record, the Dems should be allowed on the ballot.

Apple Hypocrisy Saudi Expansion
Apple CEO Tim Cook has called for a boycott of Indiana because of the state’s new religious freedom law which prevents business-owners from being compelled to participate in activities that violate their religious principles.
Meanwhile, as Examiner.com, notes, the company is expanding its presence in Saudi Arabia.
Hypocrisy and hipster have more in common that just merely starting with H.
In a related matter rich, white, middle-age male MSNBC 1% Ed Schultz was so flummoxed by Heritage Foundation’s Ryan Anderson’s reasonable explanation of the law that he cut off his mic.
Schultz was calmly corrected by Anderson on numerous points when he tried to claim the law was something it was not.
As it is highly unlikely you saw it we will post it for you.
Sestak Living Wage April Fool
Sy Snyder of PoliticsPa.Com has a story about Sestak for Senate’s fine young staffer Jason Turner who just sent out a ghostwritten yarn for the Admiral about how the minimum wage must be raised.
“How can we expect anyone to live on $7.25 per hour?” asked Jason.
Jason is being paid $448.50 ever two weeks, reports Snyder, which comes out to $1.78 per hour.
Hey Jason, it’s April Fool’s Day. Joe is just goofing with you about you getting a raise.

James May is unemployed. It has driven him to this.
Yes, he is recording himself playing flute music — British Grenadiers in this case — and uploading the videos to YouTube. Curse you Barack Obama and all Democrats.

Hunting Ground Concerns College Rape
The National Sexual Violence Resource Center (NSVRC) will partner with Oscar-nominated filmmakers Kirby Dick and Amy Ziering and their film “The Hunting Ground” to increase awareness around preventing sexual violence on college campuses, according to Adam Kulikowski of the Center. The collaboration coincides with the start of Sexual Assault Awareness Month, a national prevention campaign facilitated annually by NSVRC.
To kick off their partnership, NSVRC and “The Hunting Ground” — along with co-sponsors Women Organized Against Rape and the Pennsylvania Coalition Against Rape — will host a panel discussion after a showing of the film at 7 p.m. on Friday, April 3, at the Landmark Ritz Five Theatre, 214 Walnut St., Philadelphia. The panel discussion will feature the film’s producer, Ms. Ziering, and state and local experts.
“The Hunting Ground,” which concerns sexual assault on U.S. campuses, has received more than two thousand requests from colleges and universities to host screenings of the film.
“‘The Hunting Ground’ is a powerful documentary that underscores the widespread problem of campus sexual assault,” NSVRC Director Karen Baker said.
Sexual Assault Awareness Month is observed every April. Free resources for parents, students, health care professionals, and members of the campus community are available at nsvrc.org.

Shop Vac Vs Yellow Jackets
A fellow has figured out a way to use a Shop Vac to remove yellow jackets from the cracks in his porch ceiling and has put a demonstration of it on YouTube. 
He says it takes about four hours. He starts the machine from a good ways off by putting the plug in the socket and he doesn’t stick around while it does its job.

He says the trick is to put a bit of soapy water in the bucket.
His wife thinks it’s stupid.
But, then, that was before he got 114,000 views.
Our vote is to go the chemical route. His way does make interesting watching, though.
