JUST AS I PREDICTED IN AUGUST: EGYPTIAN AND RUSSIAN FOREIGN AND DEFENSE MINISTERS ARE SET TO MEET

HOT AIR:
Not only has the administration’s “reset” button failed with Russia, but now Middle Eastern countries which have been in the American sphere of influence for decades are looking for better relations with other major nations.  Saudi Arabia has said “major changes” are coming concerning their relationship with the US.  And now Egypt is turning away from the US as well:
The Russian foreign and defence ministers will travel to Egypt next week on a visit seen as signalling a growing rapprochement between the two countries as the military-backed authorities in Cairo reach out for new allies and seek to lessen dependence on Washington.

ALSO HOT AIR: "Some Egyptians this as a “back to the future” moment for Egypt when Gamal Abdel Nasser aligned Egypt with the then USSR in what some consider to be “glory days” of Egypt."

I PREDICTED THIS ON AUGUST 5 - NO ONE ELSE DID, ANYWHERE:


MONDAY, AUGUST 05, 2013 
PREDICTION: BECAUSE OF OBAMA'S SUPPORT FOR THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD, EGYPT WILL SOON BE BACK IN RUSSIA'S CAMP 
PREDICTION: 
PUTIN WILL TAKE ADVANTAGE OF OBAMA'S DISASTROUS SUPPORT OF THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD AND OUR CRUMBLING RELATIONSHIP WITH THE EGYPTIAN MILITARY FORGE AN ALLIANCE WITH THE EGYPTIAN MILITARY AND HENCE THE GOVERNMENT OF EGYPT - WHICH WAS FIRMLY IN THE USSR'S CAMP UNTIL NIXON'S ADMINISTRATION.
 HMMM: If Obama was secretly working for Putin, then he couldn't have done a better job of helping Russia.

SATMAR MEETS WITH MUSLIM BIGWIGS TO TALK ABOUT OPPOSITION TO ISRAEL

The Satmar's spiritual leader got cozy with a pair of Muslim billionaires from the UAE:
Raising money to fund anti-Israel ads to protest against the Government of Israel, has led the Satmar Rebbe (Reb. Ahron) to meet with two Muslim billionaires, the brothers of the Hani-Al-Kassab family in UAE, who own giant companies in Dubai and oil fields in the Emirates.

According to a report in Behadrei Haredim, the two brothers came to the U.S. to explore joint investments with some Orthodox Jewish partners.

The brothers, who came across Satmar’s advertisements against Netanyahu, were curious to learn more about Satmar’s ideological opposition to the State of Israel. The Jewish partner referred them to Rabbi Chaim Tzvi Teitelbaum, the grandson of the Satmar Rebbe in Kiryas Yoel, to request a meeting with the Rebbe.

The Rebbe expressed his willingness to meet with them, claiming it would sanctify God’s name.
The shame. It only hurts the Lord to associate with scum who wish to see Israel annihilated.

Teitelbaum told them just what they'd like to hear:
“Our opposition to Israel is not due to political considerations, but a biblical prohibition to found a Jewish State in the land of Israel before the redemption,” the Rebbe explained. ”The State of Israel is a big contradiction to the Jewish religion and to our real hopes. So, even if the day comes and the Israelis sign a peace agreement with the Arab world, our opposition to Israel will stand.”
Just like the Muslim world's. Teitelbaum violates the Commandment of Thou Shalt Not Lie when he claims their opposition is "biblical". If it were, we wouldn't have even left Egypt.

I won't be one bit surprised if this is the start of an ugly friendship between two very sick movements who both oppose Israel, one from Koranic beliefs, and the other from a false, distorted perception of what Judaism is meant to be about. This is just why the Satmar should be added to the list of groups dangerous to Israel.

THE BOXER AND THE RUGBY PLAYER WHO CAPITULATED

The Australian Daily Telegraph wrote about a boxer who converted to Islam, and influenced a rugby player to follow suit:
TROUBLED rugby league star Blake Ferguson has been converted to Islam by controversial boxer Anthony Mundine.

The NRL bad boy made the commitment to his new Islamic faith at Zetland Mosque on Friday, hoping it can help to save his ailing career.

The State of Origin star was photographed praying beside Mundine, who also converted rugby league superstar Sonny Bill Williams to the Muslim faith five years ago when Williams was going through a difficult period in his life.

[...] Ferguson has previously vowed to give up alcohol - as required by the Muslim faith - but failed.

[...] "He's just looking forward to changing his direction in life. At the moment he's in good space - no drinking, no drugs, no parties.

"He's got the colour back in his face. He wants to be a better person but he'll still have his faults, like we all do."
How can be a better person by following the Religion of Peace? Look at this:
Ferguson's rugby league career has been in limbo for several months after he was dumped by the Raiders over a number of off-field incidents.

He is facing charges of indecent assault on a woman at a Cronulla nightspot and was also caught speeding and driving while suspended before having his $400,000 NRL contract terminated.
Now how do we know he won't keep doing this as he follows the ummah? He could also continue speeding on the highway; that's not something the Koran has any problem with, certainly not if it involves jihad. What a shame no Christian or even Judaist had the sense to confer with him about the possibilities of joining their movements. This brings to mind how I'm actually mad that some synagogues don't try to offer their services to sport players like the rugby player, since they could make people proud of them. And it could help bolster Judaism's profiles significantly.

WHAT TRIUMPH IS THERE IN THESE CONTRADICTORY DEPICTIONS OF THE "NEW" MIDDLE EAST?

Bloomberg wrote about "Arab superwomen" in graphic novels coming from Islamic-dominated regimes, whose authors unfortunately remain stuck on the very religion that's cast them into hellish lives:
It wasn’t Egypt’s police force that saved Layla from sexual assault, it was Qahera, a sword-wielding, female superhero in a long black hijab.

Groped by the comic strip’s villains, Layla’s hopes of police assistance are dashed when an officer castigates her for wearing inappropriate clothing -- trousers and a sweater. Back on the street, she’s confronted by another gang of tormentors and is saved only when Qahera appears, beating them with a stick and then stringing them by the scruff of their necks from the police station railings.

Qahera is emblematic of a new breed of Arab comic superheroine emerging as liberals and conservatives dispute the legacy of the 2011 uprisings. Young artists are focusing on as yet unresolved issues in the Middle East and North Africa, which have left male-dominated cultures largely intact.

“Female superheroes and leading characters show women filling the gender gap and highlight governments’ neglect of women’s rights,” said Lena Merhej, a Lebanese artist researching visual narratives at Jacobs University Bremen in Germany, in an interview. The new breed of comic characters “fulfill their dreams and aspirations for a better life.”
How can they get a better life when Islam will only make their lives horrible? If the heroine named Qahera wore a mask so the thugs wouldn't know her identity, that's fine enough, but wearing a long hijab - symbolizing belief in a religion whose name translates in English as "submission" only defeats the aspirations. By upholding such a horrific belief system, that only ridicules whatever good intentions the author supposedly has.

On a related note, there was an animated cartoon broadcast on Pakistani TV recently called "Burka Avenger", and legitimate arguments were raised about whether this is the right way to address the issue of Islamofascists who wish to deny women an education:
While the TV series is prompting dialogue about education and women's rights worldwide, the Pakistani public is just learning about it due to limited distribution. As news spreads, some are reacting reacting more strongly to her crime-fighting outfit of choice -- a burka -- than to her message. The burka is a conservative outfit that many view as a symbol of oppression.

Human rights activist Marvi Sirmed told Brennan she feels the cartoon wrongly glamorizes the burka, which she calls "a tool of oppression."

"[It is] a symbol of submission of women. It cannot be used as a tool of empowerment," Sirmed told Brennan.
I think she's right. If the character wore a ski mask outfit, that would probably be the best way to hide her identity. Wearing a burka or niqab, realistically speaking, makes it difficult to fight and even see ahead well. These graphic novels and cartoons may ostensibly have good intentions, but so long as they absolve the Religion of Peace of any blame for the oppression it's led to, that only ruins whatever messages they're allegedly publishing.

CBR'S BRETT WHITE THINKS DIVERSITY IS FAR MORE CRUCIAL THAN GOOD STORYTELLING

The CBR contributor Brett White has fawned over the new Muslim character in the role of Ms. Marvel, and he says:
Contestants on "Check Your Privilege" are exclusively angry comic book fans hailing from the town of Yesterday who describe their favorite hobbies as buying comics that make them angry, trolling and just generally "bein' a hater." They have a tenuous grasp on gender and global politics -- a fact that only makes them yell louder -- and their life's ambition is "upping their snark game." This week's "Check Your Privilege" grand prize is the knowledge that you'll eventually have to explain your Internet presence to your ashamed children and watch popular opinion leave you behind! Now, let's play the "Privilege!"
This sounds like an attempt to obscure the real issues at hand, and maybe he should look at himself in the mirror to see who's got the tenuous grip.
This is a game that we thankfully -- yes, thankfully -- play with regularity nowadays. I say thankfully because that means that comic book companies are actually shaking things up from the status quo they've been operating under since the '60s. Marvel Comics has particularly shown a commitment to diversity that puts the competition to shame. Miles Morales, Captain Marvel, the all-female "X-Men" team and "Mighty Avengers" are just a few of the big initiatives that have gone a long way to make the 616 universe a much more inclusive place. Now we can add Kamala Khan, the new Ms. Marvel, to the list. And no matter how angry I'm sure people are in every comment thread on the Internet, it's the right move.
Adding a Pakistani to the list, yes, but a Muslim, no. Definitely not without being honest and transparent about the core beliefs of the Religion of Peace, which he hasn't referenced any more than any other mainstream news outlet.

He's also making a fool of himself by boasting about diversity while showing a disinterest in whether Marvel's shown a commitment to good storytelling. And by whitewashing the Religion of Peace, they're not. And how can this be diverse if they won't create Pakistani Christians and other non-Muslim protagonists as leads?
With Kamala Khan, the daughter of Pakistani immigrants living in Jersey City, Marvel Comics has shown yet again that it wants to include groups of the American population that have yet to be personally inspired by their heroes. Unlike previous Muslim superheroes, like Monet from "X-Factor," or Dust from various teen X-Books, the new Ms. Marvel has her own ongoing series and will bear a very prominent superhero moniker, one previously owned by Carol Danvers.
I'm not sure how just instantly launching a new character in her own starring book these days without even testing the waters to see if she'd become popular with a wide audience makes for good strategy. Birds of Prey only became an ongoing series after the success of a number of miniseries/specials that preceded it. And there's questions to be raised about whether most Muslims actually consider Marvel's heroes an inspiration. Yes, there may be some Muslims who actually read the creations of a company that was founded by Jews, but how many, really? And how many of them even develop respect for the racial background of the founders? White proceeds to say:
As a white dude, I can't really imagine the joy that the entire Muslim and/or Pakistani readership felt yesterday when they learned that after years of Marvel fandom they'd finally gotten a leading character of their own. But also as a white dude, I can't really imagine what's happening in the brains of other white dudes that makes them take to comment threads and partake in a round of "Check Your Privilege." What's going on, guys?

I'll address the haters for a bit: So "Ms. Marvel" won't feature a protagonist that looks like you. This is not a bad thing. It's not like they're taking away one of the white male books to make room for "Ms. Marvel"; Marvel didn't say, "We were going to keep 'Daredevil' going but 'Ms. Marvel's' taking his spot!" This book is not affecting your comic book buying habits at all. The only way it will is if you buy it, which -- maybe you should. This anger you're showing, hater, shows a fundamental lack of empathy and understanding for people that don't look like you. Isn't it crazy how comic books can bring this out of people? Yeah, it's true! Us white dudes find it super hard to understand the importance of having heroes that look like you or come where you come from because there are thousands of white male protagonists in all of fiction. Muslim readers now get one leading character in all of comicdom; chill out and be excited.
And I'll address this leftist apologist for a bit. Since when did I ask that the protagonist actually be like myself? What really offends me is that a religion whose beliefs include violence towards women is presented in a whitewashed POV without acknowledging its darkest corridors. And since the new girl doesn't dress exactly in the way a lot of totalitarian Muslim regimes do, I'm not sure the entire Muslim readership - assuming there even is one - will really care. Some might not even support having a girl protagonist rather than a boy at all.

I find it facinating he's being so distorting: without providing any clear evidence, he claims "haters" are against having a title with a woman in the lead. Absolutely not. Those of us with common sense do find it objectionable, however, to give a false portrait of a violent religion. Something he must be too scared to acknowledge. And why does he act as though a lot of the world's Muslims aren't white too?

And he's not the least bit disappointed that the new Ms. Marvel isn't of a more challenging background like Romanian or Armenian heritage? On that note, I'm curious if he'd say anything about such a premise if Marvel's editors actually greenlighted it.
Kamala's big debut in the New York Times is being criticized for including the character's religion in the headline, with people saying that it shouldn't be a big deal. These people are trying to sound informed and socially progressive while ignoring the actual truth of the situation: It's a big deal to have a Muslim superhero because our culture has made it a big deal. It's actually a shame that our media is still so homogenous that any deviation from straight white male-ness makes headlines -- but that's the reality of the situation.
Now isn't that rich coming from somebody who fits the category of "progressive"; in other words, a PC leftist. I wonder why leftists like him have no problem insulting a mainstream press that is on their side and isn't as homogenous as he's claiming. And he should look at himself in the mirror before telling people the dissenters are trying to sound informed. It's not our culture so much as it was a dishonest left-wing movement in the press and showbiz that made it a big deal for the wrong reaons.

As for a "big debut", that's only because the liberal media thinks it's oh-so important, as though it hadn't been done already. But after a while, all the fuss they're making about it is only bound to drift away.
Maybe I'm a bleeding heart liberal (maybe?), but I'm incredibly excited for this book. I'm excited to read G. Willow Wilson and Adrian Alphona's take on what being a superhero means to someone who isn't a white man, or even a white woman. I'm excited to learn more about this culture that I know very little about. You can make your ignorant "keep politics out of comics" argument all you want, but the truth is that comics are where we learn a lot about other cultures. I truthfully don't know how okay I would have been with my gayness if I hadn't had decades of X-Men comics preaching tolerance -- at times specifically mentioning homosexuals -- ingrained in my brain. Cultural awareness is incredibly important, and reading stories about different cultures are where the seeds of empathy and understanding flourish. If you know nothing about people of the Muslim faith outside of how the media has portrayed them since 9/11, I bet you'll be surprised by what you read in "Ms. Marvel." You might even be able to relate to her!
He doesn't think he's a bleeding heart liberal? How strange. And I don't think homosexuality was ever explicitly brought up as an issue in X-Men until the turn of the century, so I don't see what he's driving at. It wasn't until the 90s that LGBT activists started trying to hijack the X-Men in their push to require everyone to accept poor mentalities. But if he really believes in his lifestyle, and wants to know more about Muslim culture, then I don't suppose he'd care to ponder that many Muslims are homophobic in ways that Judeo-Christian dissent can't even hold a candle to? And, maybe he'd even like to study some of the Koranic verses condoning violence against gays and lesbians?
Diversity is important in comics, and it's so important that it's not going anywhere. If it wasn't for Marvel editor Sana Amanat's own personal experiences growing up as a Muslim American, "Ms. Marvel" might not be here today. The Marvel editors might have never even thought to introduce a character like this if they all came from the same basic background. That's what's so cool about diversity and story telling; different people tell different stories, and it baffles me that some readers want to put up arbitrary restrictions on storytelling potential. Amanat's childhood experiences are just as worthy of exposure as mine -- and mine can be seen in dozens of sitcoms and movies already. I want a new story, and I'm excited to read one.
If he really wanted a new story with diversity, he'd pine for one about Arabs and Pakistanis from non-Muslim backgrounds. Amanat's "experiences" are bound to be more like taqqiya.
Did we learn anything on this week's round of "Check Your Privilege"? I hope so, but I also have a feeling we'll be firing up the spinning wheel when-not-if Marvel unveils another character created to give an underrepresented group a voice (trans*, asexual, an incredibly long list of ethnicities). But if this imagined game show goes hand in hand with the ongoing diversification of comics, then I'm glad to keep hosting it.
All we learned is that White is one very dishonest left-wing ignoramus. I've got a feeling that if he did learn about the contents of the Koran, he wouldn't even say a word, which would make him a coward and suggest he's decided Muslims get the pass he wouldn't give to Judeo-Christians. So why is he wasting his time lecturing us?

NYTIMES: OBAMACARE CUTS SUBSIDIES TO HOSPITALS WHICH WENT TO HEALTHCARE FOR THE POOR

NYTIMES: A government subsidy, little known outside health policy circles but critical to the hospitals’ survival, is being sharply reduced under the new health law. The subsidy, which for years has helped defray the cost of uncompensated and undercompensated care, was cut substantially on the assumption that the hospitals would replace much of the lost income with payments for patients newly covered by Medicaid or private insurance. But now the hospitals in states like Georgia will get neither the new Medicaid patients nor most of the old subsidies, which many say are crucial to the mission of care for the poor. 
“We were so thrilled when the law passed, but it has backfired,” said Lindsay Caulfield, senior vice president for planning and marketing at Grady Health in Atlanta, the largest safety-net hospital in Georgia. It is now facing the loss of nearly half of its roughly $100 million in annual subsidies known as disproportionate share hospital payments. Memorial is also facing steep reductions in the subsidies. Cancer care may be among the services reduced, administrators here said. 
THIS IS JUST MORE PROOF THAT THIS IS THE WORST LAW IN US HISTORY - ONE THAT ONLY PASSED BECAUSE THE WORST PRESIDENT IN US HISTORY LIED ABOUT IT AND PAID OFF SENATORS TO VOTE FOR IT.

35 OF OBAMA'S BIGGEST BALD-FACED LIES

EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE 35 STATEMENTS IS A QUOTE AND EVERY SINGLE ONE HAS TURNED OUT TO BE A LIE AND/OR A BROKEN PROMISE. 

AS I HAVE MAINTAINED SINCE 2005, OBAMA IS NOT TRUSTWORTHY AND HE'S UNFIT FOR THE OFFICE HE HOLDS. 

HERE ARE 35 REASONS WHY THIS FACT IS BECOMING MORE WIDELY BELIEVED.
  1. "No matter how we reform health care, we will keep this promise to the American people… If you like your health care plan, you'll be able to keep your health care plan, period. No one will take it away, no matter what." (2008)
  2. "I am running to tell the lobbyists in Washington that their days of setting the agenda are over. They have not funded my campaign. They won't work in my White House." (2008)
  3. "As President, I will close Guantanamo, reject the Military Commissions Act and adhere to the Geneva Conventions. Our Constitution and our Uniform Code of Military Justice provide a framework for dealing with the terrorists."  (2008)
  4. “...when I’m president, I will go line by line to make sure that we are not spending money unwisely.” (2008)
  5. "The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership failure." (2006)
  6. "I'm going to have all the negotiations around a big table. We'll have doctors and nurses and hospital administrators. Insurance companies, drug companies -- they'll get a seat at the table, they just won't be able to buy every chair. But what we will do is, we'll have the negotiations televised on C-SPAN, so that people can see who is making arguments on behalf of their constituents, and who are making arguments on behalf of the drug companies or the insurance companies. And so, that approach, I think is what is going to allow people to stay involved in this process." (2008)
  7. "I will not sign a plan that adds one dime to our deficits – either now or in the future. I will not sign it if it adds one dime to the deficit, now or in the future, period." (2010)
  8. "Ultimately, I’m confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress."
  9.  "[I] probably know about Judaism more than any other president..."
  10. "I have always believed that the Second Amendment protects the right of individuals to bear arms,"
  11. "I can make a firm pledge. Under my plan, no family making less than $250,000 a year will see any form of tax increase. Not your income tax, not your payroll tax, not your capital gains taxes, not any of your taxes."
  12. "This is the most transparent administration in history."
  13. "I want every American to know that we will rewrite the tax code so that it puts your interests over any special interest. And we will make it quicker, easier, and less expensive for you to file a return,"
  14. "Will use the power of the presidency to fight for an independent watchdog agency to oversee the investigation of congressional ethics violations so that the public can be assured that ethics complaints will be investigated."
  15. "Will create a 'contracts and influence' database that will disclose how much federal contractors spend on lobbying, and what contracts they are getting and how well they complete them."
  16. "Will ensure that any tax breaks for corporate recipients — or tax earmarks — are also publicly available on the Internet in an easily searchable format."
  17.  "[I] will not sign any non-emergency bill without giving the American public an opportunity to review and comment on the White House website for five days."
  18. "No political appointees in an Obama-Biden administration will be permitted to work on regulations or contracts directly and substantially related to their prior employer for two years. And no political appointee will be able to lobby the executive branch after leaving government service during the remainder of the administration."
  19. "If I am the Democratic nominee, I will aggressively pursue an agreement with the Republican nominee to preserve a publicly financed general election."
  20. "I am not a Democrat who believes that we can or should defend every government program just because it's there. ... We will fire government managers who aren't getting results, we will cut funding for programs that are wasting your money and we will use technology and lessons from the private sector to improve efficiency across every level of government."
  21. “Now we are going to have to find some additional sources of revenue for the other third or so of the health care plan, and I’ve provided a long list of approaches that would not have impact on middle-class Americans. They’re not going to be forced to pay for this.” 
  22. "I cut spending by over a trillion dollars in 2011″
  23.  "Today, I'm pledging to cut the deficit we inherited in half by the end of my first term in office." (2008)
  24. “Well, it’s too early to know exactly how this [the attack in Benghazi  came about, what group was involved, but obviously it was an attack on Americans. And we are going to be working with the Libyan government to make sure that we bring these folks to justice, one way or the other.”
  25. “I think it’s important for us to understand that the Fast and Furious program was a field-initiated program begun under the previous administration,”
  26. "I cannot guarantee that it is going to be in the first 100 days. But what I can guarantee is that we will have in the first year an immigration bill that I strongly support and that I'm promoting. And I want to move that forward as quickly as possible."
  27. "Yes, in fact, up at Camp David, we do skeet shooting all the time,"
  28. “Over the last few years both parties have worked together to reduce our deficits by more than $2.5 trillion,”
  29. "Eliminating special tax breaks for oil and gas companies: including repealing special expensing rules, foreign tax credit benefits, and manufacturing deductions for oil and gas firms." 
  30. "Protect the jobs and benefits of workers and retirees when corporations file for bankruptcy by telling companies that they cannot issue bonuses for executives during bankruptcy while their workers watch their pensions disappear."
  31. "Will double federal funding for cancer research within 5 years, focusing on NIH (National Institutes of Health) and NCI (National Cancer Institute)."
  32. "The sequester is not something that I've proposed."
  33. "We believe in a light touch when it comes to regulations."
  34. "I will provide our intelligence and law enforcement agencies with the tools they need to track and take out the terrorists without undermining our Constitution and our freedom. That means no more illegal wire-tapping of American citizens."
  35. "We are going to work with you to lower your premiums by $2,500. We will not wait 20 years from now to do it, or 10 years from now to do it. We will do it by the end of my first term as president."

IF YOU HAVE A FAVORITE OBAMA LIE - IN QUOTES - THAT I'VE MISSED, THEN PLEASE POST IT IN THE COMMENTS.

I WILL PUT THESE AND OTHER LIES INTO A POLL FORMAT SO WE CAN FIND OUT WHAT WE ALL CONSIDER THE TEN BIGGEST LIES OBAMA HAS TOLD ... SO FAR.



STEVE EMERSON'S NEW DOCUMENTARY, "THE GRAND DECEPTION"

The NY Jewish Voice wrote about Steve Emerson's new documentary called Jihad in America: The Grand Deception:
Emerson's documentary exposes the stealth war that the Muslim Brotherhood has been conducting behind the scenes in America as its influence has infected academia, Hollywood, journalism, law enforcement, and the highest echelons of government. Throughout the film, undercover video and audio clips are interspersed between interviews with law enforcement officials and MB experts to describe the evolution of an organization that was founded in Egypt in 1928 in order to bring Muslims back to their Islamic values and create an Islamic caliphate across the world. From founder Hassan al-Banna: "It is the nature of Islam to dominate, not to be dominated, to impose its laws on all nations and extend its power to the entire planet."
It's a film that students should see, and aren't likely to because of the PC-ness running rampant in schools and universities. But that's why a serious effort is needed to promote this documentary whereever possible.

ANOTHER FALSE ANALOGY OF THE LEFT: OBAMACARE AND SEAT-BELTS AND HELMETS

A FEW COMMITTED LEFTISTS/DEMOCRATS DEFENDING OBAMACARE HAVE STARTED TO USE THE SEAT-BELT ANALOGY, AND THE HELMET ANALOGY:

THEY SAY THAT FORCING PEOPLE TO BUY "BETTER" HEALTH INSURANCE IS NOT DIFFERENT THAN WHEN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT ORDERED ALL CARS TO HAVE SEAT-BELTS OR WHEN OTHER GOVERNMENT PASS LAWS TO REQUIRE THE USE OF HELMETS FOR MOTORCYCLISTS AND BICYCLISTS.

THIS IS BULSHIT.

NO SEAT-BELTLESS CAR OWNER WAS FORCED TO BUY A NEW CAR THAT HAD SEAT BELTS.

AND HELMET LAWS - AS CARNEY HAD TO ADMIT - FOR MOTORCYCLISTS AND BICYCLISTS ARE STATE LAWS - NOT FEDERAL LAWS. CAR INSURANCE IS ALSO A STATE LAW.

WHAT OBAMACARE DOES IS UNOPRECEDENTED AND IT IS HAVNG UNPREDCEDENTED NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON MILLIONS OF AMERICANS.

MILLIONS OF AMERICANS ARE BEING HARMED SO OTHER AMERICANS MIGHT BENEFIT.

THIS IS NOT WHAT OUR GOVERNMENT WAS FOUNDED TO DO.

IT IS MORALLY WRONG.

IT IS ANTITHETICAL TO EVERYTHING OUR NATION WAS FOUNDED UPON.

IN THE ABSTRACT IT MIGHT HAVE SEEMED APPEALING TO MANY AMERICANS - PERHAPS EVEN HALF OF AMERICANS, BUT IT WILL BE REJECTED BY AN OVERWHELMING MAJORITY THE MORE IT COMES INTO PRACTICE.

WHEN OBAMA SOLD THIS SNAKE OIL HE LIED.

HE COULD NOT HAVE SOLD IT WITHOUT LYING.

NO THAT THE SNAKE OIL IS MAKING US SICK, WE CAN ALL SEE THAT HE LIED.


BANNING HIJABS WOULDN'T STOP HONOR MURDERS

The National Post has a point, though there's one part where they may have fallen into the PC trap:
Quebec’s Status of Women Committee has released a 167-page report that primarily addresses the disturbing phenomenon of honour killings of girls and women, 17 of which have been officially designated as such in Canada since 1991. The report also considers strategies to combat non-lethal honour-motivated abuses, including genital mutilations, virginity testing, forced marriage and “excessive control.” [...]

The report has its conception in the revulsion experienced by all Canadians at the brutal 2009 murders of three Quebec sisters (Zainab, Sahar and Geeti) and their stepmother, Rona Amir, at the hands of their Afghan-born parents (Mohammad Shafia and Tooba Mohammad Yahya) and brother Hamed. The document is welcome: Honour-motivated crimes are a reality (albeit a rare one) in this country. But the immediate response from the Quebec government, exploiting it as a prop for its controversial Charter of Values — which would ban “conspicuous” religious accessories such as the hijab and yarmulke from public life — is unwelcome.

“I wouldn’t make a direct link between the two,” said Bernard Drainville, the Parti Québécois minister overseeing the marketing of the proposed law, “but the symbolism of the charter may help us prevent these kinds of crimes. The Charter sends a very strong signal that equality between women and men is an important value, a non-negotiable value in Quebec society.”

Mr. Drainville is off base in his assessment. In newspaper photos of the Shafia women, one sees modest attire, but no special religious garb at all, neither hijabs or niqabs. No mention was made of regular mosque attendance. No appeal was made to shariah law by the defendants at trial. The parents’ attachment to a draconian sense of family honour sprang from a cultural obsession common to great swaths of populations in South Asia and the Middle East, where honour crimes may be disproportionately found amongst Muslims, but which are regularly committed among Sikhs, Hindus and even Christians — many of them religiously observant, but others less so or even disengaged from religion altogether.

As Liberal MNA and women’s issues critic Maryse Gaudreault riposted in denunciation of Drainville’s opportunistic linkage, the real threats to girls and women is not what they wear (which isn’t to say that honour crimes don’t happen to women wearing hijabs and niqabs, too), but rather “fundamentalism and extremism.” One can be fundamentalist and extreme about one’s ancestral cultural values even if one dresses in an outwardly Western way.
Are they implying Christians actually commit honor murders too? What a disgrace; that goes entirely against what Christians stand for. But their point that ideology and savage beliefs are the main culprit in honor murders by Islamofascists is a good one, and without confronting it, there's no chance of ever eliminating the crisis.

That said, it's still a good idea to ban hijabs and niqabs, because they can be used as a form of control, something no woman needs to suffer from.

NAZIS WHO CONVERTED TO ISLAM

Giulio Meotti's written about the history of nazis who converted to Islam:
There are Nazi grafts in Arab-Islamic terrorism.

At the top of the most wanted list of the Simon Wiesenthal Center there is a man who today would be one hundred years old. His name is Alois Brunner and he is responsible for the deaths of over 130,000 Jews. The Nazi hunters still place him in Syria, where he was last seen in 2001, protected by the regime of Bashar al-Assad.

Brunner was one of the most zealous ideologues and officials of the “Final Solution”, the plan for the extermination of the Jews. The idea haunted him to the point that in 1985 he said to the German magazine Bunte: “I regret that I didn’t finish the job”.

When the United Arab Republic of Syria was formed, Dr. Brunner took up residence at 7 George Haddad, in the embassy district of Damascus. In 1961, the year that Adolf Eichmann was captured by the Israelis in Buenos Aires, Brunner received a bomb-letter, probably from the Mossad and lost an eye.

Brunner, a personal friend of Hafez el Assad, took part in the construction of Syria's secret services on the model of the Gestapo.
This is telling a lot about how the engineers of national socialism thought. Those who escaped justice sought refuge in Arab/Islamic countries, and even converted to the Religion of Peace, which tells a lot about how much they were raised on hate.

EFF E'M.


THE LEFT'S CORE AIM OF ENFORCED PSEUDO-EQUALITY VERSUS THE RIGHT'S CORE AIM OF LIBERTY AND OPPORTUNITY

The Left, as embodied by today's Democrat Party, is really all about one thing: enforcing a false equality - and equal outcomes: set asides; quotas; earmarks; targeted subsidies; enforced diversity targets; and also redistribution of private assets and private property - in other words, class warfare.

The Left's notion of false equality is based on a foundational assertion of postmodernism: cultural and moral relativity - the idea that all cultures are equal, and all religions are equal, and that there are no moral absolutes, only arbitrary rules, culturally and subjectively created.

The Left's notion of false equality asserts, therefore, that the West and Judeo-Christian Civilization only achieved superiority over other peoples and other cultures purely as a result of brute force - and that this brutal history justifies treating the West and Judeo-Christian Civilization as criminals worthy of punishment - especially the richest among them, (whose wealth, they believe, was looted from the non-West). In other words, the Left falsely blames the West and Judeo-Christian Civilization for most of history's wars, genocide, and piracy.

The Left further believes that the West is most responsible for sexual repression (since, to the Left, sexuality is culturally defined and humans really have a polymorphous sexuality and because the West's family structure and the West's religions are sexually repressive).

The Left further believes that the industrial complex created by the West is responsible for polluting the Earth to the point of global climate catastrophe.

This litany of false accusations is what allows the Left to attack the West incessantly while maintaining a foundational belief that all cultures are equal. In other words, the culture and values of the West are no better than those of any other culture, but the history of the West means that the West is justifiably a target - and should therefore be burdened and sanctioned and taxed so as to redistribute its ill-gotten wealth to the non-West.

The Left feels the same way about the wealthy within the West.

The Left feels the same way about whites within the West.

The Left feels the same way about males within the West.

And the Left especially feels this way about the USA - as the leader of the West, and also about Israel - the bulwark against the non-west and the former center of the West and of Judeo-Christianity.

The Left wants the West, and the rich, and whites, and males, and Jews and Christians burdened and taxed and targeted the same way that Kurt Vonnegut imagined high achievers would be burdened in his dystopian sci-fi short story HARRISON BERGERON -  a world in which incredibly gifted ballet dancers would be forced to dance with chains so as not to out-perform their lesser talented co-dancers.
WATCH THIS TRAILER:

Watch the whole thing!
The Left employs progressive taxation and other tools to redistribute assets from those who earn them to those the power elite assert are just as deserving. This - and quotas and the like - is how they get equal outcomes - and how they justify it morally.

The Right doesn't believed all peoples, or all people, or every person, or all cultures or all religions are equal or that all moral systems are arbitrary and culturally relative.

The Right doesn't believe, therefore, in enforcing equal outcomes because different people will naturally achieve different outcomes.

The Right believes we should all be equal before the law - because even though physically and intellectually we are each unique, our souls are equal.

Because we each have a unique soul, the Right believes that we should each have the opportunity to pursue happiness however we decide.

In other words, because the Right believes we each have a unique soul with unalienable, God-given rights - (rights that are not the gift of the state but are inherent), the Right believes in a transcendent Natural Law, and in Personal Liberty.

The Left rejects Natural Law - which transcends individuals, subjectivity, and culture, and instead embraces relativism, and this means they favor libertinage: subversive behavior which attacks the values of the West.

The battle between Left and Right can therefore most clearly be seen as a battle between people who are cultural and moral relativists and people who are libertarians.

The relativist-Left wants a strong state to enforce equal outcomes upon dis-equal persons - often based on membership in certain categories, (for example: whites, males and Judeo-Christians are disfavored and their opposites are favored).

The libertarian-Right wants a state with limited power, just enough power to ensure outcomes are fair, that outcomes are based on merit and not on membership in certain groups.

The Left's desire for equal outcomes is a perversion because it necessarily requires the repression individual liberty and of individual responsibility, and it necessarily requires a strong state to redistribute outcomes - and that redistribution is inevitably influenced by connection that certain persons or groups have to the power structure, in other words it inevitably leads to corruption.

The Right's desire for limited governmental powers administered by governments which have divided power and limited, defined power is not only the way to ensure maximum personal liberty - and to maximize outcomes based on merit, but to reduce as much as possible the potential for corruption, tyranny, and waste.

The Obama Administration is one of the most Left-wing dominated administration of all-time and also one of the most tyrannical, wasteful and corrupt and the one most opposed to individual liberty as when it tyrannically forces you to buy health insurance it deems best for you - and has done so with an incompetently built website which fails to accomplish what it was designed to accomplish (ergo is a huge waste) designed at huge expense who were corruptly selected because they are Obama cronies. Which makes Obamacare the epitome of Leftism.

Because prosperity is a by-product of liberty, Leftist policies not only fail to deliver their own stated goals, they impoverish everyone because they limit overall liberty.

That's why I have long said this:

If we really want to make poverty history, then we have to make Leftism history.


NEW MS. MARVEL IS MORE LIKE "MS. MUSLIM"

Once again, Marvel is shoving the Religion of Peace down our throats, with the latest stunt being the introduction of a new teenaged protagonist taking up Carol Danvers's former moniker:
With most superheroes, when you take away the colorful costume, mask and cape, what you find underneath is a white man. But not always. In February, as part of a continuing effort to diversify its offerings, Marvel Comics will begin a series whose lead character, Kamala Khan, is a teenage Muslim girl living in Jersey City.

No exploding planet, death of a relative or irradiated spider led to Kamala’s creation. Her genesis began more mundanely, in a conversation between Sana Amanat and Steve Wacker, two editors at Marvel. “I was telling him some crazy anecdote about my childhood, growing up as a Muslim-American,” Ms. Amanat said. “He found it hilarious.” Ms. Amanat and Mr. Wacker noted the dearth of female superhero series and, even more so, of comics with cultural specificity.

When they told G. Willow Wilson, an author, comic book writer and convert to Islam, about their idea, she was eager to come on board as the series’ writer. “Any time you do something like this, it is a bit of a risk,” Ms. Wilson said. “You’re trying to bring the audience on board and they are used to seeing something else in the pages of a comic book.”
I wonder if this is the kind of diversity Kelly Sue deConnick was saying she wanted to see when she was interviewed by USA Today last month? And not an Armenian, Portuguese, Columbian or Danish heroine anywhere. Some "diversity" alright.
Kamala will face struggles outside her own head, including conflicts close to home. “Her brother is extremely conservative,” Ms. Amanat said. “Her mom is paranoid that she’s going to touch a boy and get pregnant. Her father wants her to concentrate on her studies and become a doctor.” Next to those challenges, fighting supervillains may be a respite.

The creative team is braced for all possible reactions. “I do expect some negativity,” Ms. Amanat said, “not only from people who are anti-Muslim, but people who are Muslim and might want the character portrayed in a particular light.”

But “this is not evangelism,” Ms. Wilson said. “It was really important for me to portray Kamala as someone who is struggling with her faith.” The series, Ms. Wilson said, would deal with how familial and religious edicts mesh with super-heroics, which can require rules to be broken.
It's clear that despite any claim she makes to the contrary, this series is going to be defined almost entirely by the lead's religious background, yet no chance they'll ever reference any verses from the Koran, not even these ones about women. Nor is there any chance Khan will ever offer any help to 9-11 Families, or try to prevent attacks by monsters like Nidal Hasan and Naser Abdo, or even use her power to defend targets of honor murders. And even then, Muslims might not be impressed either, because the lead character may not wear a hijab, for example. I have a hunch there's no chance we'd see a character like Northstar turn up, so long as he's still depicted as gay, because for many Muslims, that's an abomination.

Wilson is the same writer who attacked Holland for taking security steps to prevent terrorist attacks, spoke disrespectfully of apostates, among others, and even interviewed an Islamofascist from Egypt named Ali Gomaa, who himself wrote an anti-Israel screed in the WSJ.

The NYT goes on to say:
...the quest for cultural diversity in comics is not always successful. The market can be unwelcoming to new characters and attempts at inclusion can seem like tokenism when not handled well. Then there are the firestorms: In September at DC Comics, the writers of Batwoman, announced that they were leaving the series because of editorial interference, including an edict that would prohibit the lesbian title character from marrying. Dan DiDio, the co-publisher of DC Comics, said the decision was about keeping true to the mission of the Batman characters, who have sacrificed their self-interests for the greater good. They “shouldn’t have happy personal lives,” Mr. DiDio told fans at the Baltimore Comic-Con.
The alleged quest for diversity is not successful, if at all, because it's become so predictable and selective. At this point, the protagonists will either be gay, as in the case of the new Batwoman, or in the case of the new teenage Ms. Marvel, Muslim, yet the former mindset is unlikely to turn up alongside the latter, lest it offend adherents of Islam.
In 2011, when Marvel announced that Miles Morales, a black Hispanic teenager, would take on the alter ego of Spider-Man as part of an alternative take on the character, there was an uproar by those who thought that Peter Parker, white and angst-ridden, had been replaced. (He wasn’t. Miles is part of a separate series that offers fresh takes on Marvel characters.)
Oh, that's funny. After all these years, the Ultimate line's offerings are pretty stale.
The most important fan assessment, though, comes later and is easier to quantify. “Fans respond with their dollars,” said Axel Alonso, the editor in chief of Marvel Entertainment, who thinks Miles has helped bring new readers to comics. “When you see Spider-Man strip down his mask and he looks like you, you are more inspired to pick up that book.” The September issue of Miles’s series sold around 32,000 copies. The more traditional version sold around 80,000 copies, though Peter Parker is seemingly dead and Doctor Octopus is acting as Spider-Man.
Does the NYT's writers realize those are laughably abysmal numbers for sales? As for that claim that a protagonist who looks like the reader will persuade them to read the book, that only tells more about Alonso, who must think minorities don't care about good writing. No wonder Ultimate Spider-Man sells so low, and regular Spidey isn't far behind.

The biggest error with stories like a Muslim Ms. Marvel is that they don't reflect reality where it helps. And it's pretty apparent that this new series will be nothing more than a political statement, which only makes it more worthless.

RON MARZ BUYS INTO "TAQQIYA" AT FACE VALUE

For the opening week of the Ender's Game movie, which has done pretty well so far, comics writer Marz has quite a bit to say on CBR about his refusal to even read the novel by Orson Scott Card.

But besides that, he's also made a very odd choice for an op-ed to recommend:

When I took to reading this over, I discovered quite an eyebrow raising surprise: the writer for Grantland is a practicing Muslim, and quite a bit of what he says contains some taqqiya (the Arabic word for deception, a leading component of Islam) that cannot be taken at face value. So, in all due fairness, if Marz really believes in his own positions, that's why I'm going to analyze what the Grandlander is not being very clear about.

He says he was impressed that the Alai character is a Muslim, without even mentioning that the story isn't entirely favorable towards Alai: he thinks racial humor is funny and Ender has to tell him it's not. And Ender later becomes alienated from Alai after the latter gets much better promotions than he does. It's nowhere near what the Grantlander seems to think. He goes on to say:
...in the 1980s, Muslims were portrayed in American popular culture as one of three categories, if they were portrayed at all: crazy ayatollahs, greasy lecherous oil sheikhs, or bomb-wielding hijackers.
That's not entirely true. Hollywood certainly didn't delve deep into the contents of the Koran, that's for sure. Lawrence of Arabia wasn't exactly a negative portrayal of an Islamic kingdom when it was produced in the 60s. And here's an episode of the Hunter TV series called 62 Hours of Terror that made it seem as though they were going to explore the subject of jihadism, then backed away and made it seem more like a woman eloping with her lover was faking it as a smokescreen. I thought it was pretty weak.

But even if Hollywood did have guts back in the 80s, since when was that wrong? This was a belief system they'd be taking to task, not a race, and violence against innocents in the name of religion is abominable.
Card's community had a far greater toehold in America, of course. Mormonism is an American religion at its fundamental core, while Islam was beaten out of the African slaves who practiced it centuries ago and wasn't revived in the African American community until the 20th century.
Here is a telling lie that obscures the real picture, opposite of what the Grantlander wants us to think. And here's some history of Islam, the Koran and slavery in the early times the Religion of Peace was formed, including the following Koranic verse that says:
O prophet! We have made lawful to thee thy wives to whom thou hast paid their dowers; and those whom thy right hand possesses out of the prisoners of war whom Allah has assigned to thee; and daughters of thy paternal uncles and aunts and daughters of thy maternal uncles and aunts who migrated (from Mecca) with thee; and any believing woman who dedicates her soul to the Prophet if the Prophet wishes to wed her this only for thee and not for the Believers (at large); We know what We have appointed for them as to their wives and the captives whom their right hands possess in order that there should be no diffculty for Thee. And Allah is OftForgiving Most Merciful (Qur'an 33:50, Yusef Ali)
That verse is a clear sign of how, according to the beliefs of Islam, taking slaves is considered justified. And here's more research explaining how forced conversions are also condoned under Islam.

The Grantland writer claims to be in favor of homosexuality. But what does the Koran have to say about homosexuality? For example:
Qur'an (7:80-84) - "...For ye practice your lusts on men in preference to women: ye are indeed a people transgressing beyond bounds.... And we rained down on them a shower (of brimstone)"
And:
Qur'an (4:16) - "If two men among you are guilty of lewdness, punish them both. If they repent and amend, Leave them alone"
And also:
Qur'an (26:165-166) - "Of all the creatures in the world, will ye approach males, "And leave those whom Allah has created for you to be your mates? Nay, ye are a people transgressing"
This kind of beliefs are what led to graphic executions like the one seen in this MRC video at Vlad Tepes. None of this is mentioned in the Grantlander's article. Yet this is somebody whom Marz thinks makes for a reliable source on Orson Scott Card? The Islamist at Grantland also says:
Card's bigoted views about gay people are bad enough [...]
What about the Koran's bigoted views of gay people?
I think being a Muslim made it easier for me to come to that realization, because I knew what it felt like to have bigoted eyes watching me. I knew what it was like, even before 9/11, to hide a part of myself from strangers because I could never be quite sure how they would react. And so I was surprised when I learned that Card, as a Mormon, wasn't able to frame gay rights through the lens of his own experiences with prejudice and suspicion.
Now here's taqqiya at its worst. All this said while failing to acknowledge the most horrific verses in the Koran. But this does make me wonder: if Card were a Muslim instead of a Mormon, would there be any fuss? Would there even be remote calls for a boycott of his work? Most likely not, and even Marz and other comics writers who've been so negative towards Card would have kept quiet, even if they didn't condone his viewpoints.

Interestingly, Peter David, of all people, had quite a rebuttal to Marz's silly rant at CBR:
I'm sorry, Ron, but you're wrong.

I am so goddamn sick of boycotts. Sick of it. I wrote a video game called "Shadow Complex" that was based on a book that Card wrote. It had no relation to gays at all, and yet because of Card, I got hit with people declaring that all of my work--ALL of it--should be boycotted because I had committed the capital offense of having anything to do with him, and should be punished for that transgression. This was happening at the same time that GLAAD was giving me an award for my work on gays in comics, it should be noted.

Your inability to separate the person from the work is limiting and ridiculous. I don't care how much work you go to to rationalize it: no one connected to the film is anti-gay, nor does the film have anything to do with it. And refusing to go see the film in order to avoid Card making money that he won't, in fact, make, is a tortured string of logic that doesn't hold up to even the slightest scrutiny.

I have no dog in this hunt. See the film, don't see it, I don't care. But I completely disagree with everything you say. Whew. Good thing it won't prompt me to boycott your work.
And he also wrote a similar entry back at his site. Now David does have liberal beliefs - even some that turned up in his comics writing - that I disagree with. But on the plus side, he's right that Marz is being ridiculous to join the calls for boycotts, and there's plenty of left-wing writers whose work even I don't wish to avoid just because of how far they may have stumbled today.

That said, if Marz really believes in what he says, then let's hope he realizes what a mistake he's making to embrace the propaganda of that Grantlander. If I were in Marz's position and knew just how dishonest such a real life J. Jonah Jameson was being, I'd be pretty embarrassed. Especially after it looks like the boycott calls only helped Card, who's going to write a few more novels following the success of the movie so far.

ABCNEWS: INTERNAL WHTE HOUSE MEMOS PROVE THEY LIED TO CONGRESS ABOUT ENROLLMENT IN OBAMACARE

THEY DID NOT JUST LIE REPEATEDLY TO AMERICANS ON TV; ("IF YOU LIKE YOUR PLAN, THEN YOU CAN KEEP YOUR PLAN. PERIOD.")

ABCNEWS HAS INTERNAL WHITE HOUSE DOCUMENTS THAT PROVES THAT THEY LIED TO CONGRESS WHILE UNDER OATH WHEN THEY WORE THEY DID NOT KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE HAD ENROLLED IN OBAMACARE.

CONGRESS SHOULD HOLD THEM ALL IN CONTEMPT AND CHARGE THEM WITH PERJURY - AND HOLD OBAMA IN CONTEMPT TOO, SINCE HE KNEW THEY LIED.


Chemical Weapons Convention Implementation Act bans... CHOCOLATE!?

SEEMS THE ANSWER MIGHT BE YES - AT EAST ACCORDING TO THE SCOTUS:
[JUSTICE] Alito went on to test the government position by noting that, a few days ago, he and his wife had passed out “chemical weapons” to children — that is, Halloween chocolate.  He noted that “chocolate is poisonous to dogs,” and the treaty bans the use of any chemical harmful to animals as well as humans.
TRANSNATIONAL ELITISTS (LIKE OBAMA) THINK THEY CAN WRITE EDICTS THAT WILL USHER IN THEIR "UTOPIA", BUT THEY NEVER STOP THERE:

THEY WILL DO ANYTHING TO USHER IN THEIR "UTOPIA" - INCLUDING TRAMPLE ON OUR UNALIENABLE G-D-GIVEN RIGHTS AND COMMIT GENOCIDE.

EVEN TAKE AWAY YOUR CHOCOLATE!

SERIOUSLY:
  • ISN'T THIS WHAT MICHELLE OBAMA'S DIETING BULLSHIT IS ALL ABOUT? 
  • AND NANNY BLOOMBERG'S ANTI-16oz DRINK CRUSADE?
  • AND OBAMACARE - WHICH REQUIRES YOU TO BUY A PLAN THAT OBAMA AND HIS COMRADES LIKE?
LEFT-WING SCUMMERS LIKE OBAMA LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND SEE LOVELY, BENIGN, BRILLIANT, KNOW-IT-ALLS WHO CAN MAKE THE WORLD A PERFECT PLACE IF THEY ONLY HAD THE POWER TO MAKE EVERYONE DO AS THEY WANTED.

LIKE THIS:



AND LIKE THIS:



BUT THEY'RE REALLY JUST TYRANNICAL SCUM -

JUST BULLIES WHOSE DREAMS OF UTOPIA ALWAYS DEVOLVE INTO A DYSTOPIAN NIGHTMARE BECAUSE PROSPERITY IS A BY-PRODUCT OF LIBERTY -
A BY PRODUCT OF PEOPLE PURSUING THEIR OWN IDEA OF HAPPINESS, IN THEIR OWN WAY. 
AND HOW WELL THEY SUCCEED IN ACHIEVING HAPPINESS? ... WELL, THAT DEPENDS: 
IN A FREE SOCIETY, OUTCOMES ARE NOT GUARANTEED; THEY CAN'T BE IF WE'RE ALL REALLY FREE.
YESTERDAY'S ELECTION PROVED ONCE AGAIN THAT THERE ARE MILLIONS OF PEOPLE - USUALLY 35% OF THE POPULATION - WHO ARE HAPPY TO GIVE UP THEIR FREEDOM FOR A PIECE OF CANDY AND A FREE LUNCH ---

AND WHO ARE ABSOLUTELY ECSTATIC IF IT MEANS TAKING MONEY AWAY FROM FOLKS THEY DON'T LIKE.

SHREWD POLITICIANS, LIKE OBAMA -

WHO ARE WILLING TO REPEATEDLY IF NOT CONSTANTLY LIE AND CHEAT -
AND WHOSE ALLIES ABSOLUTELY DOMINATE THE MAJOR MEDIA, AND SKEW REPORTING TO HELP THEIR SIDE - 
CAN USUALLY MANAGE TO GET ANOTHER 10% TO VOTE FOR THEM - (LOW INFORMATION VOTERS), 
WHILE GETTING 10% OF THEIR OPPONENTS SUPPORTERS TO STAY HOME  - (BY MAKING THE OPPONENT SEEM "OUT OF THE MAINSTREAM"), 
OR GETTING THEIR OPPONENTS TO VOTE FOR A 3RD PARTY STALKING HORSE - AS WAS THE CASE IN VIRGINIA YESTERDAY ---
(A CAMPAIGN THAT FOLLOWED THE STRATEGY INITIALLY USED BY THE OBAMUNISTS IN A CONGRESSIONAL SPECIAL ELECTION IN NY STATE IN 2011).
WHAT WILL STOP THEM?

I'M SORRY TO SAY THAT IT LOOKS MORE AND MORE LIKE ONLY TOTAL ECONOMIC COLLAPSE WILL STOP THEM - AS IN THE USSR.

AND THAT'S WHERE WE SEEM TO BE HEADED BECAUSE OF THEIR POLICIES.

SIGH...

THE DEMOCRAT PARTY: THE PARTY OF CORRUPTION

Which states and counties are most notorious for corruption?

Democrat states and Democrat counties.

NJ.

RI.

IL.

Cook County. Hudson County.

NY.

NV.

All are basically Democrat controlled. NYC is basically a one party town - as is Boston and Providence and Chicago and Vegas.

The Democrat Party is a coalition of INTEREST GROUPS - a party of factions. Each seeks to suck at the teat of government.

The Democrat Party is the party of handouts, free lunch. subsidies, set asides and tax breaks.

The Democrat Party destroyed Detroit, is destroying Chicago and will destroy NYC.

And under Obama - the USA,

Sigh.

WHEN WILL IT STOP?

When voters wake up and realize that there is no free lunch.

TOO BAD: I think it will take a total economic collapse - coupled with a collapse of the left's control of the media and the academy - to wake people up. And sadly: the collapse of the economy is coming, but the stranglehold the left has on the media and the academy seems unfazed.

Sigh...

And the media and the academy will brainwash people into blaming "greedy corporations" and not leftist politicians.

I WISH PEOPLE WOULD REMEMBER THIS:

Only government can force you to buy things.

No corporation - no matter how greedy - can forced anyone to buy their stuff.

It's big government that's the enemy.

Big government and the politicians who use the coercive power of the government to fill their pockets and dole out subsidies to their pals.

Sigh.

IS THIS THE NEXT VOLUME OF OBAMA'S MEMOIRS?



FLORIDA SCHOOL SHOULD NOT INDOCTRINATE ISLAM INTO STUDENTS

A protest is planned against the foisting of a pro-Islamic textbook:
On Florida’s Atlantic Coast, some 200 or more local parents and activists have announced plans to show up at Tuesday’s Volusia County school board meeting to protest the public school use of a world history textbook that devotes a whole chapter to Islam but exactly zero chapters to any other religions.

The textbook, called simply “World History,” contains a 32-page chapter fondly devoted to “Muslim Civilizations.” Sections include descriptions of the Koran, the growth of the Muslim empire and the Five Pillars of Islam.

The planned protest will include a demand that students rip out the 32 pages of the Islam chapter unless the school district agrees to provide students with a similar amount of officially-sanctioned material concerning other religions, reports local ABC affiliate WFTV.
Now there's an idea. At the least, it sure works better than burning. Parents enrolling their children at a school should ask what's taught there and quiz the staff on whether they believe in propagandizing in favor of bad religions. And the school would do well to listen to what the parents want, because in the long term, it won't help them a bit.

BARACK OBAMA AND LANCE ARMSTRONG: two guys who lied their way to the top...

THE MIGHTY HAVE FALLEN:

Two despicable liars.


MUST SEE TV: On Feb 25, 2010, Eric Cantor explicitly called out Obama - to his face - and told him that because of Obamacare millions would lose their insurance, and Obama denied it & lied about it, snidely too!

THE DISASTER CALLED OBAMACARE WAS PREDICTED BY ERIC CANTOR IN 2010
VIA WZ:

OBAMA LIED TO CANTOR AS BALDLY AS HE LIED TO US OVER AND OVER AGAIN.
OBAMA SHOULD BE IMPEACHED OVER HIS  REPEATED LIES ABUT OBAMACARE

FAILURE TO IMPEACH HIM MEANS WE ARE TACITLY ACCEPTING THE IDEA THAT IT' OKAY FOR A POTUS TO LIE TO US OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

ADL'S COWARDICE

While the AJC and AIPAC are going to keep lobbying for sanctions against Iran, the ADL is not:
AIPAC and the American Jewish Committee refused a White House request to suspend lobbying for new sanctions on Iran.

Top National Security Council staffers in an Oct. 29 meeting had asked the American Israel Public Affairs Committee and the AJC to suspend for 60 days lobbying for new congressional legislation that would intensify sanctions. They also made the request to the Anti-Defamation League and the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations.

ADL National Director Abraham Foxman told JTA that he favored the suspension and would not lobby for or against new sanctions. Malcolm Hoenlein, executive vice president of the Presidents Conference, was unavailable for comment.
So again, the ADL has proven itself one of the most jelly-spined groups in the country, courtesy of Foxman, who's virtually a chairman for life. Nobody with common sense should waste a moment on his business.

YOU KNOW WHO SOME OF THE MOST IRRITATING PEOPLE IN THE WORLD ARE?

NO: NOT PEOPLE WHO WRITE IN ALL CAPS!

:)

THE MOST IRRITATING PEOPLE IN THE WORLD ARE LIBS WHO ONLY READ THE NYTIMES AND THINK OF THEMSELVES AS INFORMED.

WHICH IS LIKE, WHAT... 80% OF NY'ERS - MANY OF WHOM HAVE M.A.'S AND JD'S AND MD'S.

IOW: THEY ARE SMART PEOPLE - JUST UNDER-INFORMED.

BEING UNDER-INFORMED IS THE ONLY WAY THEY CAN GO ON BEING LIBS.

THERES AN OLD SAYING:

"SHIT IN; SHIT OUT." SMART PEOPLE WHO ARE UNDER--INFORMED MIGHT AS WELL BEING INPUTTING SHIT.

MOST LIBS ARE POLITICALLY ILL-INFORMED, MISINFORMED, DIS-INFORMED AND UNINFORMED.

WHY? WELL, PARTLY BECAUSE THEY ARE NO LONGER CURIOUS PEOPLE. THEY'VE MADE UP THEIR MINDS AND NOTHING CAN CHANGE IT:
  • THEY LIKE GOVERNMENT AND HATE BIG CORPORATIONS; 
  • THEY LOVE THE LEFT AND HATE THE RIGHT; 
  • THEY THINK EUROPE IS GREAT AND AMERICA 2ND RATE.
AND SO ON.

BUT MOSTLY THEY CONTINUE TO BE UNDER-INFORMED BECAUSE THEY VALUE THEIR AFFILIATION AND PARTISAN-NESS MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE.

AND WHEN THE CAPTAINS OF THEIR TEAM TELL THEM NOT TO LISTEN TALK RADIO, NOT TO WATCH FOX, AND NOT TO READ ANYTHING REMOTELY CONNECTED TO THE "TEA PARTY/KKK/NAZIS" THEY OBEDIENTLY OBEY..

THE LAST THING THE CAPTAINS OF THEIR TEAM - THE DEM/LIB/LEFT MACHINE - WANT IS AN ELECTORATE THAT HAS HEARD ALL THE FACTS AND BOTH SIDES.

AN IGNORANT ELECTORATE IS AS ESSENTIAL TO THE DEM/LIB/LEFT MACHINE - AS IS THEIR CYNICAL DESIRE FOR AN ELECTORATE THAT WANTS A "FREE LUNCH" - WHICH MEANS A LUNCH THEY CAN BE CONVINCED WILL BE PAID FOR BY SOMEONE ELSE.

AND ANOTHER THING: WILLFUL IGNORANCE IS AN ESSENTIAL TOOL FOR THOSE DESIRING TO REMAIN IN DENIAL.

SO...

FOR THE MEMBERS OF THE DEM/LIB/LEFT MACHINE:

IF IT DIDN'T APPEAR IN THE NYTIMES, THEN IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.

AND IF SOMEONE ON THEIR TEAM DID SOMETHING HITHERTO THOUGHT OF AS WRONG, THEN THEY DON'T HAVE AN OPINION ON IT UNTIL THE NYTIMES PROVIDES AN EXCUSE.

THESE PEOPLE DESERVE THE THORNS AND POISONOUS FRUITS OF THE TREES THEIR PROPHETS HAVE PLANTED.

BUT WE ON THE RIGHT DO NOT.

THE SAD THING IS THIS: WE LIVE IN A FOREST OF THEIR TREES.

SIGH...


NEW FOREVER STAMP, PLUS VIDEO FLASHBACK


The reality of the train wreck will not hit until people personally suffer via rape-rate premiums, high deductibles, no maximum-out-of-pocket limits, and reductions in network options.

One example of how devastating a reduction in network options can be: Kaiser, insuring more than 500,000 people in the D.C. area, dumps the five most important hospitals in Northern Virginia.

Thus far, people learn that others are being slammed and sigh with relief: "Well, it's not happening to me.  I don't have that particular policy."

WHO IS GONNA PAY THE BILLS OBAMA IS RUNNING UP, THE RICH???


JEWISH CONVERT TO ISLAM PLEADS GUILTY TO INCITING

Here's some news on the disturbing case of a Jewish convert to the Religion of Peace, who'd once been a Haredi, and even threatened other Haredis:
A Jewish convert to Islam pleaded guilty to inciting violence, including a call to leave Chabad headquarters in New York “a message from Islam.”

Yousef Mohamid Al-Khattab (a.k.a. Joseph Cohen), 45, of Atlantic City, New Jersey, pleaded guilty yesterday to using his position as a leader of the ‘Revolution Muslim’ websites to use the Internet to place others in fear of serious bodily injury,” said an October 31 statement from the Alexandria, Va., office of the FBI.

[...] Many of his incendiary calls were made during Operation Cast Lead in 2009, among them a call to seek out leaders of Jewish federations “and deal with them in their homes.”

He also posted a map with directions to Chabad headquarters
and, according to The Washington Post, called on his readers to “make EVERY attempt to reach these people and teach them the message of Islam or leave them a message of Islam.”
The Philadelphia Magazine has more on some of his horrific filth, which includes:
He posted a message asking Allah to punish Jewish people using “liquid drain cleaner in their faces” and by making “their fingers and brains stick on cafe walls from impact.”
How did this man become so repulsive? He now serves as one of the most frightening examples of a Jew who takes up a belief system that targets people of his racial background. I am truly disgusted with him. I hope he receives a serious, long prison sentence for the crimes he committed.
