Red Tails, untold American history thanks to Democrats

It was under F.D.R., a president Liberals love to praise, that African Americans were forced to serve in a segregated Army. He also put Japanese Americans in internment camps, another injustice Libs never acknowledge.

The late Sen Robert Byrd, a Democrat Liberals love to laud as a champion of the party once made these comments about serving in the Army with African Americans:

“ I shall never fight in the armed forces with a Negro by my side ... Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds. ”

That was the sentiment of the Democrat Party during the time these brave African Americans served in the Red Tails. It was the same sentiment that Democrats used to pass Jim Crow laws. That’s the racism of the Democrat Party who was by the way the original enslavers of Blacks.

And isn’t it very interesting that no American film studio, again controlled by Liberals, wanted to make this film.

I’m glad this story is being told. These men deserve the glory and recognition for what they did in WW ll for their country. But, let’s get the history totally accurate.

Greatest action sequenced ever filmed: The Untouchables Train Station Scene

I may be biased but I truly feel that directors Brian Depalma ‘s slow motion action sequence is one of the greatest pieces of film work ever captured in a motion picture.


To set up the scene, Elliott Ness played Kevin Costner and his fellow Untouchable, Stone, played by Andy Garcia are waiting to grab Al Capone’s bookkeeper, the guy with the eye glasses who’s a vital witness for the case against Capone.
The scene is in German, but it doesn’t take away one bit from the greatness of the scene.


I love it!

Doesn’t #Occupiers remind you of the soldier Patton had to slap silly because he was a coward?

I was watching Patton like I usually do to start the New Year when I came to thus iconic scene.


That sniffling little soldiers reminded me so much of the whining losers that make up Occupy Wall Street. These lazy good for nothings have nothing better to do than complain about the 1% in this country. They have no drive or desire to better themselves and expect Daddy government to reach into the packers of those of us who actually work for a living to give them a free handout.

Yeah, they’re just cowards who are afraid of life because they can’t hack it in the real world away from academia. Maybe if they had a more practical degree than Lesbian studies or Multicultural studies, they’d have a real job by now.

Meryl Streep greatest performance as Margaret Thatcher, The Iron Lady

I can’t believe how much Meryl Streep looks and sounds like Margaret Thatcher. And I am really looking forward to seeing this movie about the greatest prime minister the UK ever had.





This is the real Margaret Thatcher in action. Back in the 80s she gave the best answer to the Leftist favorite attack about income inequality. For the life of me I can’t understand why our side doesn’t use her rhetoric which the perfect come back to ithe charge.

Chadwick Boseman as Jackie Robinson in “42” Harrison Ford as Branch Rickey

Robinson has always been one of my personal heroes for the grief he took breaking baseball’s color line 1947.

The Huffington Post reports Hollywood has finally found its Jackie Robinson.


Chadwick Boseman will play the iconic baseball star and civil rights pioneer in "42," Legendary Pictures announced on Friday night. A relative fresh face to audiences, Boseman will be joined by screen icon Harrison Ford, who will play Branch Rickey, the Brooklyn Dodgers executive who signed Robinson to be the first African American ballplayer in Major League Baseball history. Robinson made his Major League debut in 1947.


Brian Helgeland, the Oscar-winning writer of such hits as "LA Confidential" and "Mystic River," will both write the screenplay and direct "42." Previously, he directed the 2001 film, "A Knight's Tale."


This is by far the biggest role in Boseman's career; to this point, he's best known for guest roles in TV shows such as "Fringe," "Justified" and "Castle," as well as a regular role in thirteen episodes of "Persons Unknown." He's actually featured in a movie about another sports legend, taking a part in 2008's "The Express," the biopic of Syracuse University running back Ernie Davis, in which he played Floyd Little.

Getting Harrison Ford to play Branch Rickey is a casting coup.  Dirty little truth: Civil rights leaders turned their backs on Jackie Robisnon becuase he was a Republicans as most African Americans were after the Civil War.

Muppet Movie: Another attempt by liberals to brainwash kids- villain's name is Tex Richman-Evil Oil executive-class ware for kids

In the latest Muppet movie, a character name Tex Richman is an oil executive who of course in Liberals minds has to be portrayed as the villain.

The Daily Mail reports Fox news commentators verbally attacked a new enemy on a recent broadcast: the muppets. On Friday December 2, Follow The Money host Eric Bolling dedicated a segment to discrediting the latest Muppet movie, slamming them for naming the villain Tex Richman in what he thought of as an attack on capitalism.


'We're teaching our kids class warfare!' he said on the show. 'Where are we, communist China?'

This Liberal indoctrination pure and simple geeing kids early to become future useful idiots of Occupy Wall Street.

'J. Edgar' Stills: Leonardo DiCaprio Channels The FBI Chief (PHOTOS)

UPDATE:  I saw the movie today and I loved it.  We need another J. Edgar Hoover to stomp on OWS. 

I am oh so looking forward to seeing this film. I know DiCaprio is gonna do an excellent job that possibly can lead to his first Oscar win.

The Huffington Post


As the release date draws nearer, Warner Bros. is beginning to reveal more and more from a film about a man who traded in secrecy.


A whole new batch of still images from the Clint Eastwood-directed "J. Edgar" have hit the web, highlighting, above all else, the incredible transformation of the film's star, Leonardo DiCaprio. Tracing the long career of FBI founder J. Edgar Hoover, we're treated to a youthful, spry and ambitious looking Leo, on down the line to the old, embittered and bloated man with more enemies than history should tolerate.


We also catch some more glimpses of Armie Hammer as Clyde Tolson, Hoover's deputy and rumored lover, and a closer look at Judi Dench, as J. Edgar's mother.

The Candidate, a film that both Republicans and Democrats can love

When I first saw this 1972 movie directed by Michael Ritchie and starring Robert Redford and Peter Boyle, I was only 10 years old when it aired on broadcast television. I guess the reason it held my interest then was because without knowing it at the time I would become the political junkie that I am today.

The fascinating part was as a young boy I rooted for Robert Redford because he was the Democrat. Who else was I supposed to root for as a Latino? But, when I crossed over at age 15 or 16 from the Darkside to become a conservative I sided with the Republican candidate portrayed excellently by Don Porter.

I still love this film today and watch at least once a year because it shows the inside of a political campaign and how little the public sees beyond what goes into a run for public office. And there’s nothing new under the Sun because the types of rhetoric used the Democrat and the Republican over 30 years ago is basically what you’ve heard in every political campaign.

Even though the film is shown through the inside perspective of the Democrat running for office, the film portrays the Republican candidate verify fairly which is why I say film goers of either political party will enjoy the film.

In the Heat of the Night, a breakthrough film


This 1967 film directed by Norman Jewison and starring acting heavyweights Rod Steiger and Sidney Poitier broke new ground on how Black characters were portrayed in film.

Poiter is brilliant as a big city Philadelphia detective knocking heads with small town sheriff Steiger investigating a mysterious murder in the fictional town of Sparta, Mississippi.
