The Original #HailSatan Incident (with Ashley's testimony)

Yesterday, we obviously made a splash with the video of the pro-abortion supporter saying 'Hail Satan;' the video had a lot of background noise, and yesterday we said:

For the record: They've been doing this all day, this is just the first time we caught it on video.

Well guess what, it turns out we have video of the original incident.

So here's the full story, as best we can recall: Around 3 pm, we got up from posting this video and went downstairs by the area near the committee room.  Arriving on the second floor of the capitol extension, we met up with our friend D.J, who was watching women testify with LetTexasSpeak.com.  At that time LTS was broadcasting from a corner on the second floor.

Ashley joined us 20 minutes later, around 3:30.  We continued to listen to the women testify until there were too many people in the corner.  At that point, DPS asked us to move outside, which was when Ashley decided to speak.  We're not sure what time DPS asked us to move, but we were already outside by 4:05 pm when we decided to not watch Glenn Beck because we thought Stu was guest hosting.

20-30 minutes later, Ashley got up to speak.  As you can tell, her testimony is VERY powerful.  The crowd was transfixed, including the pro-abortion people.



As Ashley spoke, a few of the pro-abortion people started saying 'hail Satan' at random.  The first time we heard it was at 3:35 of this second video.  By 5:15, they're chanting it in unison, VERY creepily:



(Author's note: Ashley asked us to point out that she misspoke when she said abortion kills 1.3 people in the United States each year; she meant to say 1.3 million.)

The video posted yesterday took place around 6:30 pm.  This took place around 4:30.  The pro-abortion people were intermittently chanting "hail satan" throughout.

We met Ashley last summer, when the President was in town; to see the footage of the Barack Obama supporter who verbally accosted her that time, click here.

Come to Austin: An Open Letter to Glenn Beck

Dear Mr. Beck,

In case you missed it, last night Governor Perry called a special session of the Texas Legislature.  This could be really good, but it could also be a disaster.  We could use your help.

The reason Texas Legislators ignore the will of voters is because they assume voters won't find out.  The Capital press corps LOVES big government, because it increases their own power.  That's where you come in.

If you were to PUBLICLY let the Legislature know that you're watching them, it could stop a lot of mischief before it gets started.  The facts are damning, they just need wider exposure.  Plus, it will drive the Austin insider crowd nuts, and that alone is worth it!

In addition, you ought to consider seriously taking a day trip to Austin to personally lobby your legislator.  If you lead by example, then thousands (if not tens) of Texans will follow.  Logistically, you could do radio from the South Steps of the Capitol and television from the Capitol Auditorium.

This special session will have a major impact on the long-term economic future of this state.  It can go either way.  We could sure use your help.

Sincerely,
Adam Cahn
Austin, TX

California's Conservative Migration to Texas

 
One common refrain we hear is that the migration of Californians to Texas is a bad thing because TexansDon'tWantCalifornia'sLibreals(TM).  We've never found that argument compelling, especially since the 2010 election results made clear that the liberals in California have stayed put.  When Glenn Beck, Chuck DeVore, and myself have all moved to the same state in the past five years, it seems to indicate a trend.

Yesterday, we spoke to Chuck DeVore who pointed us to this poll:

 With its economic troubles, California has been losing people in droves. The plurality of those migrants have moved to Texas, as many as 70,000 in 2011 and 60,000 in 2012. Given this influx of new residents, we are fortunate to have at times asked our respondents whether they have moved to Texas from California, and though the actual number of these people is but a small subsample of our surveys, we have enough respondents to make two broad conclusions. First, these newcomers, on average, tend to be conservative. Pooling data from the May 2012 and February 2013 UT/Tribune surveys, we found that 57 percent of these California transplants consider themselves to be conservative, while only 27 percent consider themselves to be liberal (a fair guess as to the margin of error is somewhere around +/- 7 percentage points). Second, these new Texans aren’t rushing to find homes in the state’s urban centers: 55 percent are heading to the suburbs, the rest evenly dividing themselves between rural and urban locations.

Bottom Line: For economic refugees to Texas from California, conservatives outnumber liberals by more than two to one.  This is a good thing.  The Trib's wrap up says it well:

So while some may want to perceive the wave of Californians coming to Texas as part of the broader demographic trends that might eventually turn Texas purple, and then blue, the data collected to date suggest that Perry’s pitch appears to be hitting a chord with Californians who wear cowboy boots instead of Birkenstocks.

You can hear Governor Perry explain this phenomenon here.

How to Kick the Left's Ass in Travis County

With the emergence of Battleground Texas, a lot of ink has been spilled about the left's efforts to flip Texas.  The threat is real, but we can beat it.  One key is to make the left play defense on territory it thinks it owns.

Cahnman's Musings has been a resident of Travis County for five and a half years.  We've always found the reports of it's liberalism, much like Mark Twain's demise, to be greatly exaggerated.  Before living in Travis County, we grew up in NYC and spend half a decade in and around Los Angeles.  Cahnman's Musings has seen places hopelessly up their ass with progressivism.  Travis county ain't it.

One thing we've always observed is that there are a lot of people in Travis County who are liberty minded in a general sense, but don't follow politics closely and don't vote.  Those folks are the key.  One example is the fraternities and sororities at U.T.  The Greek system is under assault from the permanent U.T. bureaucracy, and kids in the Greek system don't buy into progressivism in the same way other U.T. students do.  If you take 20 to 100 active members per house and multiply it by 20 houses, all of a sudden you're talking about meaningful vote totals.

And that's just one example.

In that spirit, Cahnman's Musings offers the following outline to put the left on defense in Travis County:

• Online Video -- This is an inexpensive way to push information.  Online video allows us to go around media gatekeepers.  The key is to use humor to capture attention.

• Identify, Register, and Turnout New Texans -- What do Glenn Beck, Chuck DeVore, and myself have in common?!?  We're all economic refugees from blue states, and we're all conservatives.  Economic refugees to Texas are a self-selected group.  The people moving to Texas aren't liberals.  As Governor Perry told Glenn Beck last week, "if they're takers who want government to take care of them from cradle to grave, they're going to stay in California."

• Follow the Money -- Big government inevitably begets boondoggles.  Nobody likes boondoggles.  On a related note, there could be a major scandal breaking in San Antonio.

• Make the Villains Household Names -- There are plenty of potential villains in Travis County.  In the spirit of Alinsky's thirteenth rule, Cahnman's Musings suggests raising these people's profile.  Personally, we'd start with this guy.

• Education -- We need to increase the economic literacy of average citizens.

Any effort to protect Texas from the left must include Travis County.  There are a lot of potential voters here.  In the short term, we can put the left on defense; over the longer haul, we can kick their ass.

#IWantTheBlazeBecause; a follow up letter to AT&T C.E.O. Randall L. Stevenson

Mr. Randall L. Stevenson
Chief Executive Officer
AT&T
1 AT&T Plaza
Dallas, TX 75202

Dear Sir,

I am writing to follow up on my letter from last Monday, to which you have not yet responded.  As your loyal customer, I wrote you to request you immediately add theBlazeTV to your U200 lineup on the same financial terms as MSNBC.  I am writing today to follow up on the status of this request.

Over the past six weeks, tens of thousands of loyal AT&T customers have contacted AT&T to request you add theBlaze.  AT&T has failed to respond.  Why is AT&T ignoring tens-of-thousands of loyal customers?!?

Right now, AT&T forces U200 customers to subsidize seven left-leaning networks compared to one and a half on the other side. U200 customers deserve more programming options.  As a company that claims to value competition, I trust AT&T wants to give its customers as many programming options as possible.

Competition is the lifeblood of American prosperity.  Adding theBlaze to the U200 (on the same financial terms as MSNBC) will promote the competition from which everyone benefits.  Finally, adding theBlaze is a tangible step AT&T can take to support a cutting edge company based in Texas, YOUR home state.

I am writing to follow up on my request to you from Monday, March 11.  As a loyal customer, I asked you to add theBlazeTV to your U200 lineup on the same financial terms as MSNBC.  I have yet to hear back from you.  Why not?!?  I look forward to prompt restitution of this matter.

Sincerely,
Adam Cahn

#IWantTheBlazeBecause; an Open Letter to AT&T C.E.O. Randall L. Stevenson

Mr. Randall L. Stevenson
Chief Executive Officer
AT&T
1 AT&T Plaza
Dallas, TX 75202

Dear Mr. Stevenson,

Over the past nine months, I have been an AT & T U-verse customer.  I also used to sell U-Verse.  This letter, however, is not about me.  This letter is about better serving your customers while strengthening Texas' Economy.  I'm writing to request you immediately make theBlazeTV available on your U200 television package at the same per subscriber fee you pay MSNBC.

Competition is the lifeblood of American prosperity.  Competition ensures consumers the best quality product at a fair price.  That why I'd like you to increase the news options available to AT&T U-verse customers.  Currently, the U200 package has 7 left-leaning channels compared to one and a half psuedo-conservative options. I ask you to put theBlaze on equal footing with those other networks.

The need for more news options is obvious; for example:

• #IWantTheBlazeBecause time is running out.

• #IWantTheBlazeBecause our government ran guns to Mexico.

• #IWantTheBlazeBecause theBlaze stood with Rand before it was cool.

• #IWantTheBlazeBecause they have the guts to talk about CSCOPE.

• #IWantTheBlazeBecuase they cover Islamic Cultural Subversion.

• #IWantTheBlazeBecause they showcase voices like David Barton and Buck Sexton that the rest of the media ignores.

• #IWantTheBlazeBeause of Obama in Pee-Pee.

Finally, I'd like to add theBlaze to protect and strengthen Texas' Economy.  Mercury Radio Arts, TheBlaze's parent company, is a growing company based in Texas.  Mercury's success is living proof the Texas Model works.  As a respected business leader in Texas, I am confident AT&T values its reputation as a company that promotes competition, especially when the newest competitor is a growing Texas company.  That's why I request you add theBlaze to your U200 lineup at the same per subscriber fee you pay MSNBC.

Sincerely,
Adam Cahn
Austin, TX
March 11, 2013

P.S. If you agree with this letter, Cahnman's Musings respectfully requests you post it to U-Verse's facebook page here.

TheBlazeTV does CSCOPE

 Glenn Beck devoted his entire television program to an expose on CSCOPE today.

First up, David Barton explains the origins of CSCOPE in the Texas Textbook wars of 3-4 years ago:



HIGHLIGHTS:

• Since SBOE monitors curriculum, they call CSCOPE 'instructional material.'

• Teaching globalism, not American Exceptionalism.

• Taking out: Nathan Hale, Liberty Bell, Christopher Columbus' faith.

• Replacing with: Respect and fairness, Dolores Huerta.

• Replacing George Washington with Kay Bailey Hutchinson (yeah, wrap your mind around that one!)

• Emphasis on Contemporary over History.

• Refused to teach abundance alongside scarcity: "The other members considered all resources scarce."

Next, two teachers talk about CSCOPE from the Inside:



HIGHLIGHTS:

• CSCOPE sets up a system where educrats control everything.

• Shocked by the mediocrity of the content.

• Teachers are constantly monitored by educrats.

• Teachers have been fired for speaking out to school boards.

• "There's tremendous coercion."

Finally, Texas Senator Dan Patrick, chair of the Senate Education committee updates the state of play in his committee's ongoing investigation of CSCOPE:



HIGHLIGHTS:

• Talks about the runaround he's gotten: CSCOPE formed the shell company to hide everything.

• "We don't have the votes" to shut down CSCOPE.

• Apple will probably put CSCOPE out of business.

TheBlazeTV: Five Rape Survivors Discuss Gun Control

The left loves to hide behind the victims of tragedy to advance their agenda during moments of crisis. But what do women who've actually lived this trauma think?!? The Blaze TV spent an hour talking to five women who've survived horrific assaults to find out what they think:



Highlights:

• The Sandy Hook Elementary School was the target because it was the only gun-free zone in the area
• Ditto Aurora, CO

• Amanda Collins was a concealed carry holder was was raped because she couldn't take her firearm onto the 'gun-free zone' on her college campus.

• Kim Weeks told her rapist that she had herpes.
• Rapist was caught three weeks later planning his next attack.

• Wanda Mills was attacked by a knife-wielding psycho for six hours.

• Felicia Smith was raped by her trainer.

• Julie White was picking up her kids from Church at noon on Wednesday.
• "We were trapped in the Everglades with a knife-wielding maniac."

• Three of them were not legally allowed to posses a firearm in the location where they were raped.

• One gun can stop a serial rapist.

• "My body was a walking crime-scene."

• "As I was on the ground in that parking garage being straddled by my rapist, that call box could have been above my head and it wouldn't have done anything."

• "I've never been more calm, cool, and collected than I was when I was negotiating with my rapist."

• The notion that a woman cannot handle a gun under pressure is sexist.

• How is it a 'War on Women' to force people to pay for birth control, but not a War on Women to refuse to allow a woman to defend herself from a rapist?!?
