Joseph C. Hinson is my guest on the porch today. To read his rant in full, check out The World According to Joe . Here is what he had to say:
NOW Names Andrea Yates "Mother of the Year"
In a move that stunned a nation, the National Organization for Women has named Houston child murderer Andrea Yates Mother of the Year. Yates beat out notables such as Marilyn Walker, mother of the American Taliban, John Walker and joins past winners Susan Smith, Patsy Ramsey and Yoko Ono.
The president of the Texas chapter of NOW, Deborah Bell, said that Yates won in a landslide. "Yates has gone above and beyond the call of duty. After years of putting the what was best for her children ahead of what she wanted, she finally drowned everything that was holding her back. Now she's happy and leading an active life in jail. Marilyn Walker, on the other hand, raised a boy who studied religion and searched for God in hip hop and fundamentalist Islam."
Bell says that the group is forming the Andrea Pia Yates Support Coalition. "To be there for her on a personal basis, woman to woman, that's the basis of feminism right there," Bell said. "You've got to care about all women, regardless of how many of their own children they kill. Likewise, you've also got to support women who kill other people's kids. We don't discriminate here. We treat all baby killers with the same amount of love, compassion and aldultation."
The coalition is encouraging people to donate to Yates's legal defense fund — much as Katie Couric did on "The Today Show" earlier this month. After the airing of a sympathetic taped interview by reporter Jim Cummins with Yates's mother and brother, Couric told viewers where they could send donations to Yates's legal-defense fund, with the address displayed on television screens across the nation. Couric told viewers that any money left over would be given to women's charities dealing with postpartum depression and psychosis.
Bell can't recall when NOW has taken a murder defendant under its wing, but she contends that Yates' case isn't just about money. "We want her to have a good defense and because we would like to see some funds raised for treatment and research and education," Bell said. "We'd also like season tickets to the Houston Comets. Those girls can play some ball!"
Yates' mother is happy that NOW has decided to help her daughter. "I think it's wonderful," she said. "Anytime somebody does something for Andrea, it makes me feel better. I really need her. She was the one to take care of my husband and me, and now I'm there for her. And now she would have so much time for us. It's really a shame that she should be held accountable for something that her husband drove her to do with his sperm.
A supporter who asked not to be named in fear that her husband would sue for sole custody of their seven children said, "Year after year for almost a decade, she had been forced to endure the burden of being supported by a man. It is so heart-wrenching that clearly she's entitled to treatment and not punishment. The right-wing biased media have been pursuing a very disturbing line of questioning, such as whether this beautiful, fascinating, delicate flower Andrea Yates 'murdered' her so-called 'children.' It is precisely this mindset that keeps us in bondage."
She added, "At some point we call on all women to do as Pat Robertson says, murder their children, become lesbians and convert to the Wiccan lifestyle."

Folks, I need you to pass this to all your friends via email. If you have a heart, you will participate. Even if you don't have a heart, it will be hard to pass up on this one:
Hello, my friends. I know that some things in this email may seem far-fetched to some of the more hard-hearted among you, but it is not you I am trying to reach. I am trying to reach those who care. My uncle is a heart surgeon here in the Moscow area, and he has a little boy in his care. Sadly, the boy's family has just about run out of money, and, in a socialist country such as Russia, they kick you out of the hospital when you run out of money, even if it means your certain death. Well, this little boy will definitely die if he is kicked out, and that will happen any day now. Don't worry, I am not writing to ask you for money. It's much easier than that. YOu see, my uncle is going to take the little boy into his own home to save his life, for my uncle has a heart machine in his home that can be used to save the boys life. The only problem is that these heart machines require massive amounts of electricity, much more than my uncle can afford. Bill Gates heard of this problem, and, whether you realize it or not, Bill Gates has a very big heart. He put his crack team of programmers onto the problem, and they have developed a technology known as "push and pull circuitry". Now, I will not waste your time explaining the technology for those among you who do not have Ph.D.'s in circuit board design, but you should just know that this technology, when attached to an originating email, will push forward upon the electron cloud upon which it travels, which in turn returns, or pulls, electricity all the way back to the originating server via pi-bonding nuetron orbital energy. That's hard to follow, but essentially, for each time this email is sent, that provides about enough electricity in the boy's Moscow home to beat his heart monitor 5 times. Think about this. For each friend you forward this email to, a little boy's heart will beat 5 more precious beats of life into his body.
So, if you care at all, my friend, forward this email to as many people as you can and help to keep a little boy's heart beating. I'm not asking for money. I'm asking you to take 5 seconds of your time and forward this message to everyone you know in your address book to keep a little boy's heart beating and save his life. He's not a communist, for those of you thinking twice about doing this for a Russian. He's just a little boy.
Thank you, good friends, thank you.

When Andrea Yates received a life sentence last week, there were a lot
of
do-gooders breathing a big sigh of relief. These same do-gooders, led
by
the man-haters of NOW, had viciously attacked our legal system for
prosecuting her in the first place and had wept buckets of tears when
she
was found guilty of murder.
You'll have to read my first web rant to see why people view women and
men
differently when it comes to murder - I'm not going to repeat that
here.
However, I will say that I didn't see these do-gooders crawling out of
their
holes to weep when Jeffrey Dahmer was convicted and subsequently
executed
for cannibalism. Anyone who stores body parts in their freezer for
future
consumption is clearly insane. However, Mr. Dahmer had a penis.
That's
what made him so different, you see. It's ok to execute a lunatic with
a
penis.
But, I'm rehashing old material. Moving on....
A Houston policeman said that some of these do-gooders should have been
allowed to see the crime scene. Personally, I don't think it would
have
made a difference. So what if there are 5 dead children? Let's focus
on
the real victim here: a woman who was let down by the medical society
and
her husband. Never mind the fact that she had the presence of mind to
call
the police right after she did it. Never mind the fact that she
admitted
planning the murder for months before she did it. Never mind the fact
that
her children were screaming and fighting for their lives, a message
that any
half-wit or retard could understand.
The bottom line is this: the death penalty works. In 1982, there were
over
800 murders in Houston. The death penalty was reinstated in 1983 in
that
city, and Houston soon led the nation in sending people to death row.
Today, the nation's 4th largest city has around 200 murders, far less
than
many cities half its size.
Houston sends more people to death row than any other STATE in the
nation.
People know they won't get off with a half-cocked insanity plea like
they
would in New York or California. So, they commit murders at a fraction
of
the rate that they would in those liberal meccas.
I think it's safe to assume that women across the country would be far
less
likely to give in to the temptation to kill their children had Andrea
Yates
been given the death penalty, insane or not. It might just have been
enough
to make a few mamas-on-the-edge to change their minds. As it is, the
do-gooders won the day with their media-led assault; the prosecution
gave in
and refused to push for Yates' death. She received life instead to the
joy
of NOW and other weeping heart liberals (well, they weep for the female
lunatics, not the Jeffrey Dahmers, see my last web rant) across the
land.
Andrea Yates was not the victim in Houston. The victims are the
children
who will die at the hands of their deranged mothers over the next year.
Mothers who are sane enough to read the newspaper and watch tv and
possibly
be swayed by a death penalty in Houston.
Andrea Yates should have been given the death penalty. The deaths of
her
children might not have been in vain, for they may have saved the lives
of
many more.

See what the critics have to say about dave.
March 13, 2002
See how accurate Dave was in his first weblog prediction: Washington Post
March 8, 2002
I got mad at a guy on the highway the other day - really mad. He cut me off and almost ran me into the guardrail. I cursed, blew my horn, gave him the finger, and wished I was a woman.
Women can get away with murder, you know.
It's true. Whatever unspeakable crimes a woman commits, there is no doubt in anybody's mind that she was violently provoked or mentally disturbed. Women are incapable of evil. If an act comes from them that appears to be evil, then we know, instantaneously, without analysis, that there is a deep-rooted explanation buried away somewhere, a molestation in her childhood, spousal abuse, a temporary mental disorder - anything but evil.
Andrea Yates will not spend a day in prison, even though she committed the most heinous crime imagineable: the murder of 5 children. A man would not get off on postpartum depression like she certainly will (yes, you read it here first). "Masculinists" would not rush to the side of Russell Yates had he killed his five children, defending his actions as those of a mentally disturbed individual who needs treatment, not judgment. I doubt one soul other than his defense lawyer would dare speak good of him in those circumstances. In fact, I've heard many people say he is more to blame than Andrea, even with the circumstances as they are.
Ah, Dave, but female murderers are so rare. That's why.
In the same week Andrea Yates killed her five children, a woman in Jacksonville killed her 3 children with car fumes, a mother in Miami tried to drown her baby, and a San Diego toxicologist poisoned her husband for having an affair. The US Department of Justice confirms that 70% of child abuse cases are committed by mothers. 15% of reported SIDS cases are suffocations by mothers. Women are five times more likely to kill their children than men.
And they get away with it, almost every time.
70% of women who kill their children do not spend one day in jail. The rest spend an average of 5 years in jail.
A male murderer is 20 times more likely to get the death penalty for any murder.
How do women get away with it?
People assume that women are incapable of evil and that all seemingly evil actions are the result of the evil of a male in her life who abused or coerced her into her actions or drove her to the insanity that caused her actions.
In essence, women are viewed as insane, incompetent children, utterly incapable of making a judgment between good and evil. Think about it for just a second.
If a child commits murder, he will get away with only minor punishment because he is a child and incapable of making decisions like an adult. If an insane or retarded person commits murder, they will get little or no punishment, because they don't have the intelligence or rational thought to commit murder or do evil.
And, if a woman commits murder, society, seeing them as stupid children, will let them off every time.
Who teaches society to see women as drooling retards, the puppets of man, incapable of making any decision except one perpetrated by him?
Feminists, of course. It seems that they are very capable at protecting a woman's right to murder, even far beyond the womb.
You read it here first. Andrea Yates will walk. Just like Carla Fay Tucker shouldn't have been executed for her axe murders. Just like George Bush was Satan for putting the poor little drooling infant to death.
