Chris Matthews "thrill up your leg" syndrome

Below is another comment sent to the Socialist, I mean, Main Stream Media Newspaper. South Florida has become a breeding ground for "Liberals on the run" from New York, New Jersey, etc.. They parade around as "Moderates" however they are still lovin' Barry Soetoro.


Dear David Broder:

Hope springs eternal in the minds of the hopelessly naive. With your experience in journalism and being in the morass of Washington these many years, how can you be so effusive about the actions of Obama this past week? Do you really think he is a "pragmatic liberal" instead of the left-wing ideologue that he has projected over the past two years?

I guess the Chris Matthews "thrill up your leg" syndrome has infected you also. Such fawning over a political figure shows the abject bias of the fourth estate. What you claim was a crowning moment of Obama at last weeks news conference, was a portrait of an angry "man-child" who accused others of blocking his agenda by accusing them of taking "hostages" etc. Do you consider that presidential behavior?

Let's see what Obama does when or if he gets the tax bill with all those obscene "earmarks" included. He specifically said he would veto this type of legislation. We'll see if he is the "pragmatic liberal" that you think he is.

Come back to reality David, get rid of your liberal bias in your commentary.

Sincerely,

Another post from our friends at Chuck On The Right Side

Just What the Heck is Kwanzaa?

If you are like me you woke up one day and the "holiday season" Christmas and New Year's became a trio with the addition of something called Kwanzaa. Oh sure there were rumblings of a new holiday, but who would have thought that something invented by a Black separatist group in 1966 will now be considered by some people in this overly politically correct world as a holiday on par with something like Christmas.

The man who created the holiday, Maulana Karenga was a convicted violent felon. In 1971 Karenga was convicted of torturing two women who were members of US (United Slaves), a black nationalist cult he had founded.

A May 14, 1971, article in the Los Angeles Times described the testimony of one of them: "Deborah Jones, who once was given the Swahili title of an African queen, said she and Gail Davis were whipped with an electrical cord and beaten with a karate baton after being ordered to remove their clothes. She testified that a hot soldering iron was placed in Miss Davis' mouth and placed against Miss Davis' face and that one of her own big toes was tightened in a vise. Karenga, head of US, also put detergent and running hoses in their mouths, she said."
Karanga was convinced that the women were trying to poison him. He and three members of his cult had tortured the women in an attempt to find some nonexistent "crystals" of poison. Karenga thought his enemies were out to get him.

Some how I cannot see rational people wanting to observe a holiday created by such a sick violent man. But this part of the Kwanzaa story is rarely mentioned by the MSM.


When he invented the holiday, Karenga said his goal was to

"give Blacks an alternative to the existing holiday and give Blacks an opportunity to celebrate themselves and history, rather than simply imitate the practice of the dominant society."
So, arguably this holiday raised by the PC media to the level of Christmas, has the totally opposite purpose. While Christmas is meant to unify, Kwanzaa is meant to divide. Or as the 16 year old Rev. Al Sharpton explained the feast would perform the valuable service of "de-whitizing" Christmas.

Heck even Karenga admitted it was a fraud

“I created Kwanzaa,” laughed Ron Karenga like a teenager who’s just divulged a deeply held, precious secret. “People think it’s African. But it’s not. I wanted to give black people a holiday of their own. So I came up with Kwanzaa. I said it was African because you know black people in this country wouldn’t celebrate it if they knew it was American. Also, I put it around Christmas because I knew that’s when a lot of bloods (blacks) would be partying!”

The late Tony Snow laid out what was so wrong about the holiday 33 years after it was founded:

Now, the point: There is no part of Kwanzaa that is not fraudulent. Begin with the name. The celebration comes from the Swahili term "matunda yakwanza," or "first fruit," and the festival's trappings have Swahili names -- such as "ujima" for "collective work and responsibility" or "muhindi," which are ears of corn celebrants set aside for each child in a family.

Unfortunately, Swahili has little relevance for American blacks. Most slaves were ripped from the shores of West Africa. Swahili is an East African tongue.

To put that in perspective, the cultural gap between Senegal and Kenya is as dramatic as the chasm that separates, say, London and Tehran. Imagine singing "G-d Save the Queen" in Farsi, and you grasp the enormity of the gaffe.

Worse, Kwanzaa ceremonies have no discernible African roots. No culture on earth celebrates a harvesting ritual in December, for instance, and the implicit pledges about human dignity don't necessarily jibe with such still-common practices as female circumcision and polygamy. The inventors of Kwanzaa weren't promoting a return to roots; they were shilling for Marxism. They even appropriated the term "ujima," which Julius Nyrere cited when he uprooted tens of thousands of Tanzanians and shipped them forcibly to collective farms, where they proved more adept at cultivating misery than banishing hunger.

Even the rituals using corn don't fit. Corn isn't indigenous to Africa. Mexican Indians developed it, and the crop was carried worldwide by white colonialists.

The fact is, there is no Ur-African culture. The continent remains stubbornly tribal. Hutus and Tutsis still slaughter one another for sport.

Go to Kenya, where I taught briefly as a young man, and you'll see endless hostility between Kikuyu, Luo, Luhya and Masai. Even South African politics these days have more to do with tribal animosities than ideological differences.

Moreover, chaos too often prevails over order. Warlords hold sway in Somalia, Eritrea, Liberia and Zaire. Genocidal maniacs have wiped out millions in Rwanda, Uganda and Ethiopia. The once-shining hopes for Kenya have vanished.
...Our treatment of Kwanzaa provides a revealing sign of how far we have yet to travel on the road to reconciliation. The white establishment has thrown in with it, not just to cash in on the business, but to patronize black activists and shut them up.

So what is Kwanzaa, its the ultimate fraud. It is a holiday created by a man responsible for violently torturing two women, with a purpose not to celebrate the role of the African-American in the United States but with a fascist goal of separating the races. If the Black people in America would like to come up with a holiday that celebrates, their valuable contribution to America I would not object. Nor would I object to a celebration of the rich Western Africa culture that many of them lost when they were dragged from their homelands to become slaves in America. and to our culture I have no objection. But what I don't understand is why anybody would want to follow a violent felon in a made-up holiday that mistakes segregationism for spirituality and fiction for history.

Fledgling California is The Lindsay Lohan of States

This was a great article that can't be missed! ALLYSIA FINLEY pinpoints the upcoming problems with California (and other States which spend millions on Junkies, and failed liberal policies). Of course the Barney Frank lowlife Politician types will blame Bush! Then they will force taxes to be raised and ask for handouts.

California: The Lindsay Lohan of States

Sacramento is headed for trouble again, and it shouldn't expect a bailout.
By ALLYSIA FINLEY
Listen up, California. The other 48 states—your cousin New York excluded—are sick of your bratty arrogance. You're the Lindsay Lohan of states: a prima donna who once showed some talent but is now too wasted to do anything with it.
After enjoying ephemeral highs and spending binges, you suffer crashes that culminate in brief, unsuccessful stints in rehab. This cycle repeats itself every five to 10 years, as the rest of the country looks on with a mixture of horror and amusement. We'd feel sorry for you if you didn't constantly flip us the bird.
Instead, we're making bets on how long it will be before your next meltdown. Oh, wait—you're already melting down.

Opinion Journal's Allysia Finley argues that California is suffering from spending addiction like starlet Lindsay Lohan.
You've racked up nearly $70 billion in general obligation debt, and that doesn't include your $500 billion unfunded pension liability. Your own analysts predict you'll face a hole of at least $80 billion over the next four years.
Your government's run by a brothel of environmentalists, lawyers, public-sector unions and legislative bums. When they're not taxing or spending, they're creating regulations and commissions like the Board of Barbering and Cosmetology and the California Blueberry Commission. Many businesses would leave if it weren't for your sunny climate.
Which may explain why you're so obsessed with climate change. If your climate changes, no one, including your Hollywood friends, would tolerate you anymore. So you've created a law to tax carbon emissions—no matter that it will kill jobs.
It's not as if you don't recognize that you've got problems. Roughly three-quarters of you say you're headed in the wrong direction, according to a recent survey by the Public Policy Institute of California. You're even more depressed than Illinois and New York, and you've got sunshine 10 months of the year!
You appropriately give your government low marks—28% approval for outgoing Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, 16% for the legislature—yet you continue to re-elect the politicians who got you into this mess. Not a single incumbent state legislator lost re-election this year, including one Democrat who died a month ago (no joke). What's scarier is that you've just given almost all of the keys to statewide offices to Democrats.
Jerry Brown will be your new (old) governor. This is the man who acted as a gateway drug to your spending addiction three decades ago when he gave public-sector employees collective bargaining rights. Helping enforce your wacky laws will be Lt. Gov-elect Gavin Newsom, the San Francisco mayor who flouted state law by allowing same-sex marriage. On the plus side, he has nice hair and loves you just the way you are. This is what he had to say after winning his race:
"We're nothing but a mirror of our consistent thoughts. You tend to manifest what you focus on. If you look around for what's wrong, you'll find it. But as all we know up here in San Francisco, when you focus on what's right, you see it all around you. . . . There is absolutely nothing wrong with California that can't be fixed by what's right with California. . . . If you're from another state, you'd love to have the problems of California."
You've also just re-elected Barbara Boxer (that's Senator Barbara Boxer) to a fourth term. She boasted on election night that it's her "eleventh straight election victory, and what a sweet one it is . . . [since] everything was thrown at us, including the kitchen sink, and the stove and the oven and everything, millions of dollars of negative ads from known and unknown opponents, millions and millions of dollars."
We've tried to help you, California. Some spent millions on campaigns to entice you to change your reckless behavior. And you told them to kick rocks.
So here's our final warning: When you inevitably crash and burn, don't count on us to bail you out.

If Muslims can pray on Madison Avenue, why are Christians banned from praying in public and erecting religious displays on their holy days?Tell me again, whose country is this? Ours or the Muslims?I was asked to send this on if I agree, or delete if I don't. It is said that 86% of Americans believe in God.
Therefore I have a very hard time understanding why there is such a problem in having 'In God! We Trust' on our money and having 'God' in the Pledge of Allegiance.
I believe it's time we stand up for what we believe!

Senator Alan Simpson Calls Seniors "Greediest Generation"

Subject: Senator Alan Simpson Calls Seniors "Greediest Generation"

A Comment from Montana

Uh … something tells me this guy might be a teensy bit pissed.
Senator Alan Simpson Calls Seniors 'Greediest Generation'...
Therefore this, from a man in Montana ....who - like the rest of us - has just about had enough. These lowlife Politicians are supposed to work for us! These Nazis, yes, I said Nazis, are trying to control us from Cradle to Grave.
___________________________________

Hey Alan,
Let’s get a few things straight…

1. As a career politician, you have been on the public dole for FIFTY YEARS…

2. I have been paying Social Security taxes for 48 YEARS (since I was 15 years old. I am now 63)…

3. My Social Security payments, and those of millions of other Americans, were safely tucked away in an interest bearing account for decades until you political pukes decided to raid the account and give OUR money to a bunch of zero ambition losers in return for votes, thus bankrupting the system and turning Social Security into a Ponzi scheme that would have made Bernie Madoff proud…

4. Recently, just like Lucy & Charlie Brown, you and your ilk pulled the proverbial football away from millions of American seniors nearing retirement and moved the goalposts for full retirement from age 65 to age 67. NOW, you and your shill commission is proposing to move the goalposts YET AGAIN…

5. I, and millions of other Americans, have been paying into Medicare from Day One, and now you morons propose to change the rules of the game. Why? Because you idiots mismanaged other parts of the economy to such an extent that you need to steal money from Medicare to pay the bills…

6. I, and millions of other Americans, have been paying income taxes our entire lives, and now you propose to increase our taxes yet again. Why? Because you incompetent bastards spent our money so profligately that you just kept on spending even after you ran out of money. Now, you come to the American taxpayers and say you need more to pay of YOUR debt…
To add insult to injury, you label us “greedy” for calling “bulls@#t” on your incompetence.

Well, Captain Bulls#%t, I have a few questions for YOU…

1. How much money have you stolen from the American taxpayers during your pathetic 50-year political career?
2. At what age did you retire from your pathetic political career, and how much are you receiving in annual retirement benefits from the American taxpayers?
3. How much do you pay for YOUR government provided health insurance?
4. What cuts in YOUR retirement and healthcare benefits are you proposing in your disgusting deficit reduction proposal, or, as usual, have you exempted yourself and your political cronies?
It is you, Captain Bulls%#t, and your political co-conspirators who are “greedy”. It is you and they who have bankrupted America and stolen the American dream from millions of loyal, patriotic taxpayers. And for what? Votes.
That’s right, sir. You and yours have bankrupted America for the sole purpose of advancing your pathetic political careers.
You know it, we know it, and you know that we know it.
And you can take that to the bank, you miserable son of a b%#ch.

CHURCHILL ON ISLAM

We have to keep fighting the Marxists and Radical Islam. It is difficult when we have a Marxist TOTUS who bows to Radical Islam. We must find another Reagan. Sadly, England was disrespected a few times by our Marxist TOTUS. Soetoro just hates Reagan and Churchill and all things that are American. The useful idiots did a real hatchet job on America.


Churchill saw it coming


Unbelievable, but the speech below was written in 1899!
The attached short speech is from Winston Churchill, delivered by him in
1899 when he was a young soldier and journalist. It probably sets out
the current views of many but expressed in the wonderful Churchillian
turn of phrase and use of the English language, of which he was a past
master. Sir Winston Churchill was, without doubt, one of the greatest
men of the late 19th and 20th centuries. He was a brave young soldier,
a brilliant journalist, an extraordinary politician and statesman, a
great war leader and Prime Minister, to whom the Western world must be
forever in his debt. He was a prophet in his own time;

He died on 24 January 1965, at the grand old age of 90 and, after a
lifetime of service to his country, was accorded a State funeral.

HERE IS THE SPEECH:

"How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries!
Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as
hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy. The
effects are apparent in many countries, improvident habits, slovenly
systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of
property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live. A
degraded sensualist deprives this life of its grace and refinement,
the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law
every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either
as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of
slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among
men. Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities, but the influence
of the religion paralyses the social development of those who follow
it. No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being
moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith. It has
already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at
every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the
strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly
struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the
civilization of ancient Rome ."

248-50 London )

Start A Business? In The United States? Are You Kidding Me?

So we now have the Marxist Regime going after the Internet. Take, steal, lie and bribe. The New Marxist Democrat Party will not stop until they destroy America and all creativity here. The Regime wants us all to be like Crackhead Larry and rely on THE GOVERNMENT for everything. Those who put this TOTUS in the White House owe America a huge debt. Those who still support him are just sickos and/or idiots.

Start A Business? In The United States? Are You Kidding Me?
(10 things to consider)
This Portion is by Michael Snyder
Many of you have decided that you are going to attempt to start a business in the United States today. Many of you are still convinced that this is "the land of opportunity" and that starting a business is fairly easy. Are you sure about that? Are you certain that you have considered all of the headaches involved? Are you sure that you are ready to handle the thousands of regulations that apply to your business and the mountains of paperwork mandated by various levels of government?

Are you prepared to deal with entrenched unions, predatory lawyers and rabid environmentalists? The truth is that the business environment has never been this toxic in all of U.S. history. So even if you are able to start a viable business that can compete with the monolithic global corporations that dominate our economy, you still might not be able to make it. In the end, thousands upon thousands of businesses across America have been doomed to failure by ridiculous regulations, mountains of paperwork, health insurance costs, predatory lawsuits or corrupt government officials. So do you really think that you can beat the odds?

Historically, small businesses have been the driving force behind America's economic growth. But today, we have made the business environment so complicated that small business owners are being completely smothered by red tape.
The following are 10 areas that anyone wishing to start a small business had better think about before moving forward. When you really stop and think about it, the fact that anyone out there is still attempting to start small businesses in America today is absolutely amazing.

#1 Regulations
If you plan to start a business in America today, you better get a hold of a good lawyer. In fact, if you want to be safe, you better get a small army of lawyers. You are going to need an expert on the federal regulations that apply to your business, you are going to need an expert on the state regulations that apply to your business and you are going to need an expert on the local regulations that apply to your business.
There are going to literally be thousands of regulations that apply to any business started inside the United States today. There is no way that you will ever be able to learn them all. Not only that, but the truth is that your lawyers will only be aware of a small fraction of them.
Do you know what the Federal Register is? The Federal Register is the primary source of regulations for U.S. government agencies. In 1936, the number of pages in the Federal Register was about 2,600. Today, the Federal Register is over 80,000 pages long. That is just one example of how bad things have gotten.
So what do you do? Well, just do your best to try to learn about the major regulations that apply to your business and pray that you don't end up violating some important regulation that you are not even aware of.

#2 Paperwork
Do you know what paperwork the federal government expects you to fill out? Do you know what paperwork the state government expects you to fill out? Do you know what paperwork the city or the county expect you to fill out? Do you know what paperwork you will be required to fill out when hiring a new employee?
The truth is that the paperwork burden on small businesses has multiplied in recent years. Many small business owners are so swamped with paperwork that they barely have time to conduct their actual businesses.
For example, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is projecting that the food service industry will have to spend an additional 14 million hours every single year just to comply with a new federal regulation that mandates that all vending machine operators and chain restaurants must label all products that they sell with a calorie count in a location visible to the consumer.
14 million hours just to comply with one ridiculous regulation? Yes, that is how bizarre things have gotten in America in 2010.

#3 Fees And Fines
Many small business creators in America are absolutely horrified to learn of the fees and fines that they must pay before they can ever even open their doors. Much of the time it is revenue-starved local governments that are the biggest culprits.
For example, a reader of this column named Gene recently shared his regulatory horror story with us....
Started a new business this year in AZ. Paid over $10,000 in fees for permitting, $10,000 in fee for elec hookup, $10,000 in fees for gas hook up and an extra $200 fee per month just for the “privilege” of having gas. Adding up all the fees to start our business, I don’t think we would do it again. We are now just getting to the point that we are making our bills each month, and so we are not taking a paycheck, and don’t anticipate one for at least another year. Our family has been in business for ourselves for decades,and we know what we are doing, but the rising fees caught us off guard. Cities, municipalities, counties and states are raising all fees at astronomical rates to help offset the slump in their real estate income (since banks apparently don’t have to pay real estate taxes)…I’m telling you every business person I know is on their last leg.

#4 Taxes
The United States has one of the most (if not the most) repressive business taxation scheme in the world. As a small business owner, do you know what taxes you will be expected to pay? It is not just federal income taxes and state income taxes that you will be paying. In a previous article, I detailed the various forms of taxes that Americans pay each year and most of them apply to small businesses as well....
Accounts Receivable Taxes
Building Permit Taxes
Capital Gains Taxes
CDL license Taxes
Cigarette Taxes
Corporate Income Taxes
Court Fines (indirect taxes)
Dog License Taxes
Federal Income Taxes
Federal Unemployment Taxes (FUTA)
Fishing License Taxes
Food License Taxes
Fuel permit taxes
Gasoline Taxes
Gift Taxes
Hunting License Taxes
Inheritance Taxes
Inventory tax IRS Interest Charges (tax on top of tax)
IRS Penalties (tax on top of tax)
Liquor Taxes
Local Income Taxes
Luxury Taxes
Marriage License Taxes
Medicare Taxes
Payroll Taxes
Property Taxes
Real Estate Taxes
Recreational Vehicle Taxes
Road Toll Booth Taxes
Road Usage Taxes (Truckers)
Sales Taxes
Self-Employment Taxes
School Taxes
Septic Permit Taxes
Service Charge Taxes
Social Security Taxes
State Income Taxes
State Unemployment Taxes (SUTA)
Telephone federal excise taxes
Telephone federal universal service fee taxes
Telephone federal, state and local surcharge taxes
Telephone minimum usage surcharge taxes
Telephone recurring and non-recurring charges taxes
Telephone state and local taxes
Telephone usage charge taxes
Toll Bridge Taxes
Toll Tunnel Taxes
Traffic Fines (indirect taxation)
Trailer registration taxes
Utility Taxes
Vehicle License Registration Taxes
Vehicle Sales Taxes
Watercraft registration Taxes
Well Permit Taxes
Workers Compensation Taxes

#5 Health Insurance
Do you know if you will be required to provide health insurance for your new employees? Have you familiarized yourself with the new 2,409 page health care law enough to be able to set up a health insurance program?
As a result of the new health care law, health insurance premiums for employees are shooting through the roof. Are you going to be able to afford them? Would it be better to have fewer employees and work each of them harder so that you won't have to provide health coverage for as many people?
Will you be able to compete with the companies in your industry that have received waivers from having to comply with the new health care law?
In the United States, our system places the burden of providing health care on to the backs of employers. So are you ready to handle that burden?

#6 Pensions
Will the employees of your new business need pensions? Do you know how to set up a 401K program? Do you know what defined benefit plans are?
You can literally sit through an entire law school course on pension law and still understand virtually nothing about the subject. The truth is that if you plan to provide your employees with some kind of pension program you had better hire someone who can at least pretend that they know what they are talking about to set it up for you.

#7 Foreign Competition
Especially if you are creating a small business that does manufacturing, you are going to have to deal with foreign competition.
So are you going to be able to compete with the companies in your industry that pay their workers on the other side of the world less than a tenth of what you are paying to your American workers?
On the other side of the world, companies often don't have to worry about unions, worker's comp, health benefits, retirement benefits, nightmarish environmental regulations, crushing taxes or miles of paperwork and red tape.
Are you certain that you can compete against that?

#8 Lawsuits
The more successful you become, the more inviting of a target you are going to be for predatory lawsuits. The truth is that the courtrooms of America are packed with thousands of them, and the lawyers that bring them are hardly ever held accountable.
All of your hard work can go down the drain in a single moment. There are hordes of lawyers out there that make their living by filing lawsuits against small to mid-size businesses.
The truth is that if you are running a small business, you are probably doing something wrong.
Just hope and pray that a predatory lawyer does not find out.

#9 Environmentalists
Protecting the environment is a good thing. Unfortunately, there are many radical "environmentalist" groups that consider it to be a bad thing that humans even breathe because it produces carbon dioxide.
When Audi ran their now famous "Green Police" commercial during the Super Bowl last year, most Americans laughed it off and thought that nothing like that could ever happen in America. Well, it turns out that it is happening in America.
Not only are government environmental regulations totally nightmarish at this point, but there are a growing number of radical environmentalist groups that are running around the country filing lawsuits against whoever they feel like.

#10 The Federal Government
Are you prepared for a federal government that can literally change all the rules at any time?
Many businesses across America are frozen in their tracks at this point because they don't know what Obama and the U.S. Congress are going to do next.
The truth is that things are getting really bizarre in this country. For example, federal agents recently raided an Amish farm at 5 A.M. in the morning because they were selling "unauthorized" raw milk.
If federal agents will raid an Amish farmer at 5 AM in the morning over some raw milk, do you think that they are going to have any mercy on your small business when the time comes?
The America that once embraced "free enterprise" and the entrepreneurial spirit is dead and gone.

Now we are a country filled with bureaucrats and red tape from sea to shining sea.
Is it any wonder why we can't compete with the rest of the world?
Is it any wonder why so many millions of Americans are unemployed and can't find jobs?
In an attempt to "solve" our problems we just keep passing more "reform" which means even more rules and regulations for our businesses to follow.
Just as they are doing on an individual level, the government is attempting to watch, track and control everything that our businesses are doing.
Everywhere you look in American society today, the government is gradually tightening the steel-fisted grip that is has around everyone and everything. Pretty soon you won't even be able to sneeze without the government telling you how to do it correctly.

Is that really the kind of society that we all want to live in?

What a nightmare.

Crackhead Larry calls Michael Berry

Crackhead Larry calls Michael Berry on his Radio Show. DEMONcrat Larry explains his love for Sheila Jackson Lee and Government Cheese. The intellectual Larry tells that we should only vote for Democrats because they give us stuff.

Crackhead Larry also says the Republicans are all racists? Maybe he needs some knowledge dropped on him right here. Larry needs to listen to this, The Democratic Party, The Party of Slavery.

Barry's Justice Department Rocked by Investigation Findings

Below we have a great post from the Patriot Action Network. We see more proof of the racist illegal immigrant TOTUS sitting in the white house making a mockery of our judicial system. The next house of congress needs to press and demand soetoro's birth certificate as the house demanded the Nixon tapes. Fair is fair is right? How can we sit with Coward Holder and Barry destroying our Country?

The Ulsterman Report: Obama Justice Department Rocked by Investigation Findings

Non-partisan 144-page report indicates ongoing DOJ cover-up in Black Panther voter intimidation case with possible direct participation from Obama White House.


The implications found within the 144 page report issued by the non-partisan U.S. Commission on Civil Rights regarding the investigations into the New Black Panther voter intimidation case from 2008 appears to strongly indicate a cover up initiated by figures within the Obama Department of Justice, and quite possibly the White House itself. Within the context of this cover up, are found accusations of intimidation and non compliance within the Department of Justice throughout the comprehensive investigation.

At the heart of the investigation are allegations the Department of Justice aggressively prevented some within its own department from fully and fairly investigating the Black Panther voter intimidation case filed shortly after the 2008 presidential election.

Page 85 of the report indicates members of the Obama administration felt the DOJ should primarily focus on charges brought on behalf of minorities, not against them – in essence, an institutionally approved and promoted form of reverse racism. When some DOJ officials raised concerns over this, they were, according to the details of the report, subjected to intimidation and marginalization by their superiors within the Obama Justice Department.

Primary among these examples was former Department attorney Christopher Coates, who testified to the commission that the DOJ had, “deep seated opposition to the equal enforcement of the Voting Rights Act against racial minorities and for the protection of white voters who had been discriminated against.” Shortly after raising concerns over the New Black Panther case having been dropped by the Department, Coates testified to the commission that his authority was systematically reduced and his concerns over the handling of the New Black Panther voter intimidation case ignored, ultimately leading to his resignation from the DOJ.

As the Commission on Civil Rights’ investigation proceeded, another member of the Department of Justice, J. Christian Adams, resigned due in part to what he felt to be incorrect and or misleading testimony by Assistant Attorney General Thomas Perez.

This reasoning for this resignation was given by Adams under oath to the commission on July 6th, 2010. In this testimony, Adams indicated that he had being instructed by the Department not to comply with the requests of the commission’s investigation – in essence, ordering him to participate in a cover-up. The Civil Rights Commission itself lends significant credibility to the possibility of a Department of Justice cover-up, stating within page 104 of the report, “…a serious question exists as to whether the Department’s attempt to prevent Mr. Coates and Mr. Adams from testifying was based on concerns other than protecting legitimate institutional privileges.” (emphasis added)

The commission report goes on to outline a consistent pattern of non-compliance from the Obama administration’s Department of Justice, with to date, no direct explanation as to why the DOJ has yet to adequately respond to the investigation’s requests for further information and/or explanation regarding the apparent irregularities associated with the Black Panther voter intimidation case. Page 105 of the report then opens the possibility of direct White House involvement in the ongoing non-compliance, stating, “The Department simply ignored the question of whether the President, or Department official on his behalf, had invoked executive privilege.”

In May of 2010 the Justice Department stated that President Obama had not and would not assert executive privilege. When pressed by the commission to then explain what privilege the DOJ was utilizing to not comply with the commission’s request for information, Assistant Attorney General Perez answer was, according to the commission, “largely non-responsive”.

The commission then goes on to denounce the DOJ’s refusal to provide requested information in the following scathing terms that again point to the strong possibility of a cover-up, “…vague and unexplained assertions of privilege by the Department raise serious questions as to the Department’s degree of cooperation and whether its explanations serve the legitimate concerns of the agency.”

At the time of publication, the commission report listed the following requests that remain unanswered by the Obama Department of Justice:


1. The Department refused to authorize Christopher Coates and J. Christian Adams to
testify before the Commission. These individuals appeared over the objections of the
Department. Even then, Mr. Coates and Mr. Adams felt obligated to honor the
Department’s privilege claims that some on the Commission believe are not valid in
the absence of an invocation of executive privilege.

2. With regard to documents withheld, the Department has not specified the privileges being invoked, other than implying in its May 13, 2010 letter that the Department’s “well-established command that “[a]ll federal agencies shall cooperate fully with the Commission.” confidentiality interests” (emphasis added) override the statutory In addition, as discussed above, the Department has refused to provide a privilege log as requested by the Commission.

3. The Department refused to provide witness statements from poll watchers Mike Mauro, Chris Hill, Steve Morse, Wayne Byman, Joe Fischetti, Larry Counts, Angela Counts, and Harry Lewis; defendant Malik Zulu Shabazz; police officer Richard Alexander; and Republican Party officials Joe DeFelice and John Giordano.

4. The Department heavily redacted the FBI incident reports that have been produced.

5. The Department refused to provide the draft pleadings that were the subject of the
dispute between the trial team and the management team of Loretta King and Steve
Rosenbaum.

6. The Department refused to provide documents constituting and concerning the
communications between the trial team and Loretta King and Steve Rosenbaum, including an April 2009 memorandum referenced in a press report, prepared by the trial team in response to Mr. Rosenbaum’s concerns.

7. The Department refused to provide e-mails between Civil Rights Division officials,
such as Loretta King and Steven Rosenbaum, and other Department officials, such as
Assistant Attorney General Thomas Perrelli, Deputy Assistant Attorney General Sam
Hirsch, and Deputy Attorney General David Ogden, relating to the NBPP case.

8. There are several documents referred to in the Appellate Section memo that have not been produced: an e-mail from the Voting Section to the Civil Rights Division of
May 1, 2009; a Draft Motion for Default Judgment (dated April 30, 2009); a Draft
Memorandum of Law in Support of Motion for Default Judgment (dated April 30,
2009); and a Draft Proposed Order (dated May 6, 2009)

Most Onerous Tax, the Death Tax

Another counter attack to the South Florida Marxist Media, aka FRINGE MSM, aka Obama/Rev. Wright Drones. These Democrats want that Death Tax. Take, steal and lie. That is Barry's group ACORN and the Democrats only action.

Dear Clarence Page:

According to President Obama, all the economists he read or heard from , in the past few weeks, said that extending the recent tax rates would create jobs - if that's the case, why not extend those rates permanently? If it's good now, why would it not be good two years from now? The "evil" Republicans have been saying that for years, but have been demagogued for supposedly placating their "rich" friends.

The most onerous tax a government could assess is the Death Tax (a/k/a Estate Tax). The property that a deceased person leaves to his heirs has already been taxed, so is it fair to tax it again? That's double taxation! Is it fair to tax it again just because a person dies?

Many heirs (mostly family members) will have to pay taxes on the value of the property that was bequeathed. In many cases, the real property or business is valued at an amount so high that the recipient will be unable to come up with the cash to pay the tax. Real estate and businesses are not a liquid asset so the donee might have to sell off the asset, whether they want to or not, just to pay the "Death Tax".
Since most liberals use the term "fair" as their holy grail, is that fair to the heir or the family? Just because this tax won't affect a large amount of people, doesn't make it right to discriminate against anyone, regardless of their wealth or status in life.

As former Chief Justice John Marshall once opined, "The power to tax is the power to destroy". And so it is with the Democrats and, unfortunately, our government.

Norman Thomas Institute for MSM

Another strike back at South Florida Marxist Media, aka MSM, aka Obama/Rev. Wright Drones.


Dear Rachel Patron:

With all due respect Rachel Patron, where did you get your economic education, at the Norman Thomas Institute? ( Norman Thomas was a well known Socialist of 60 years ago).

You bad mouth the former Soviet Union, and rightly so, but your economic philosophy is right out of the Karl Marx playbook. All you think about is how government can do this or do that for people when it is universally known that the most inefficient organization created is the government itself. Are you aware Rachel, that the top 1% of earners (making over $380,000) pay 40% of all income taxes? That the top 5% (making over $160,000) pay 60% of all income taxes? That the bottom 50% of earners pay just 3% of all income taxes and still you want to "sock it to" the "rich" who, by the way, are the primary job producers? Why do you and the Democrats always try to demonize the successful people (using class warfare) by over taxing them and by calling them greedy and insensitive? Don't you think everyone should pay into the revenue pot that the government collects? Do you realize that approx. 47% of all earners don't pay any income tax? Is that fair? Were you ever employed by a poor person? That means that America is now about evenly split between those who pay income taxes and those who consume them. That's why the Democrats demonize the "rich" because they are trying to appeal to the larger voting bloc, the 47% who don't pay income taxes, by offering them entitlements - getting something for nothing. It's like robbing Peter to pay Paul so that Paul will vote for them.

Go back to school Rachel, and get yourself some basic economic education, with a non-liberal economics instructor, with emphasis on our capitalist, free enterprise system, not the Marxist/Socialist crap you are spouting now.

Sincerely,

Michelle Malkin rips Francisco Hernandez border attorney

I feel we owe a debt of gratitude to Michelle Malkin. She is courageous as she fights for our Rights. The Left Wing Nazis and New Black Panthers try and attack her at every level.

Never Forgive a Traitor! Hanoi Jane is Disgusting!

For those of you too young to remember-- Hanoi Jane is a bad person and did some terrible things during the Vietnam war. Things that can not be forgiven!!!!

and now OBAMA wants to honor her......!!!! This sick, disgusting, lowlife Jane Fonda deserves to be jailed with the Fort Hood Traitor.

In Memory of LT. C.Thomsen Wieland who spent 100 days at the Hanoi Hilton

IF YOU NEVER FORWARDED ANYTHING IN YOUR LIFE FORWARD THIS SO THAT EVERYONE WILL KNOW!!!!!!

She really is a traitor.

A TRAITOR IS ABOUT TO BE HONORED KEEP THIS MOVING ACROSS AMERICA

This is for all the kids born in the 70's and after who do not remember, and didn't have to bear the burden that our fathers, mothers and older brothers and sisters had to bear..

Jane Fonda is being honored as one of the "100 Women of the Century."

Unfortunately, many have forgotten and still countless others have never known how Ms. Fonda betrayed not only the idea of our country, but specific men who served and sacrificed during Vietnam

The first part of this is from an F-4E pilot. The pilot's name is Jerry Driscoll, a River Rat.

In 1968, the former Commandant of the USAF Survival School was a POW in Ho Lo Prison the Hanoi Hilton.

Dragged from a stinking cesspit of a cell, cleaned, fed, and dressed in clean PJ's, he was ordered to describe for a visiting American 'Peace Activist' the 'lenient and humane treatment' he'd received.

He spat at Ms. Fonda, was clubbed, and was dragged away. During the subsequent beating, he fell forward on to the camp Commandant's feet, which sent that officer berserk.

In 1978, the Air Force Colonel still suffered from double vision (which permanently ended his flying career) from the Commandant's frenzied application of a wooden baton.

From 1963-65, Col. Larry Carrigan was in the 47FW/DO (F-4E's). He spent 6 years in the 'Hanoi Hilton', the first three of which his family only knew he was 'missing in action'. His wife lived on faith that he was still alive. His group, too, got the cleaned-up, fed and clothed routine in preparation for a 'peace delegation' visit.

They, however, had time and devised a plan to get word to the world that they were alive and still survived. Each man secreted a tiny piece of paper, with his Social Security Number on it, in the palm of his hand.

When paraded before Ms. Fonda and a cameraman, she walked the line, shaking each man's hand and asking little encouraging snippets like: 'Aren't you sorry you bombed babies?' and 'Are you grateful for the humane treatment from your benevolent captors?' Believing this HAD to be an act, they each palmed her their sliver of paper.

She took them all without missing a beat. At the end of the line and once the camera stopped rolling, to the shocked disbelief of the POWs, she turned to the officer in charge and handed him all the little pieces of paper.

Three men died from the subsequent beatings. Colonel Carrigan was almost number four but he survived, which is the only reason we know of her actions that day.

I was a civilian economic development advisor in Vietnam , and was captured by the North Vietnamese communists in South Vietnam in 1968, and held prisoner for over 5 years.

I spent 27 months in solitary confinement; one year in a cage in Cambodia ; and one year in a 'black box' in Hanoi My North Vietnamese captors deliberately poisoned and murdered a female missionary, a nurse in a leprosarium in Ban me Thuot , South Vietnam , whom I buried in the jungle near the Cambodian border. At one time, I weighed only about 90 lbs. (My normal weight is 170 lbs)

We were Jane Fonda's 'war criminals....'

When Jane Fonda was in Hanoi, I was asked by the camp communist political officer if I would be willing to meet with her.

I said yes, for I wanted to tell her about the real treatment we POWs received... and how different it was from the treatment purported by the North Vietnamese, and parroted by her as "humane and lenient."

Because of this, I spent three days on a rocky floor on my knees, with my arms outstretched with a large steel weights placed on my hands, and beaten with a bamboo cane.

I had the opportunity to meet with Jane Fonda soon after I was released. I asked her if she would be willing to debate me on TV. She never did answer me.

These first-hand experiences do not exemplify someone who should be honored as part of '100 Years of Great Women.' Lest we forget....' 100 Years of Great Women' should never include a traitor whose hands are covered with the blood of so many patriots.

There are few things I have strong visceral reactions to, but Hanoi Jane's participation in blatant treason, is one of them. Please take the time to forward to as many people as you possibly can.. It will eventually end up on her computer and
she needs to know that we will never forget.

Are You A Cosignatory?

One of our favorite Conservatives in South Florida writes to the local MSM (okay, I think by now, we all know the MSM is a Marxist Wing of the current Regime).

A cosignatory is one who promises to pay a debt incurred by a loaner if
the loaner reneges on the loan. When the loaner uses the money other
than the original intent, the cosignatory is still liable.

Using a metaphor; if an elected official promises to vote for legislation on
behalf of his constituents, but instead patronizes a saloon and buys rounds
of drinks for everybody, to make him look like a real nice guy and a sport,
is no different from one using his position to squander our tax money on
give away entitlements, serving the same purpose as the round of drinks,
for his or her reelection.

Having voted for this candidate, you became his or her cosignatory and are liable for the trillions of dollars deficit. The costly round of drinks being Obamacare, financial institute and automobile bailouts, unstimulus money, eternal unemployment compensation, etc.

A separate tax assessment should be put in place for these cosignatories who
voted for their candidates, who are responsible for our astronomical debt.

Can You Believe We Are Paying REPARATIONS?

We have another post below from our friends at Chuck On The Right Side. Yes, you should be outraged after reading this. Also, Please read this HERE on BHO & reparations. This Obama Regime is despicable!

Can you believe that we have just been taken for a ride by this "lame duck" session of Congress and the President, when he signed a bill giving more than a billion dollars to 86,000 to 90,000 black farmers for supposed discrimination that happened years ago? It started out with a lawsuit by about 400 black farmers in Georgia, in the 90's, who claimed the Dep't. of Agriculture discriminated against them by denying them loans. That original lawsuit was expanded to include about 16,000 "farmers" a couple of years ago, but as of the other day when Obama signed this bill (which he initiated, by the way, in the Senate before he became President) the total amount of black "farmers" has now totaled 86,000 to 90,000.

For years Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton have been looking for reparations for slavery that ended about 160 years ago, but were laughed off as buffoons looking for some "shakedown" money, as was their modus operandi. But, when Obama got to the Senate, he pushed for this settlement (reparations to some) and as President he completed the infamous case of Pigford vs, Glickman, by getting $1.2 billion dollars for this obvious fraud. By the way, the mover and shaker behind this scam was none other than Shirley Sherrod and her husband, remember her from a few months ago when she was fired by the Dep't. of Agriculture for supposedly making racist remarks? In addition, in all of the U.S. the estimate of black farmers is about 20,000. So how come approx. 90,000 black "farmers" will now share in the 1.2 billion bailout? Do you smell a rat?

The new congress should investigate this robbery of the treasury as soon as they are sworn in so maybe it can be stopped. What a disgrace to have this proceed to its final disposition.

Shame on Obama, the Congressional Black Caucus, and all who voted for this fraud, but then again, they have no shame. Maybe you should write your Congressman and tell him/her to investigate this abomination.

MSM and Democrat Perverts

Dear Professor Watson:

Amazing, Professor Robert Watson of Lynn University, wrote a column without mentioning George W. Bush once and only one mention that Warren G. Harding was a Republican. Since Warren G. Harding was such a rogue, and as the professor related, a sexual pervert/addict, you'd think that he might've mentioned his successors, John F. Kennedy and Bill Clinton, who also shared an affinity for loose women and an appetite for extra-marital affairs? I'm sure Democrat-liberal Robert Watson will write some scathing columns about the sexual proclivities of Kennedy and Clinton, just to balance off the behavior between Republicans and Democrats. Professor Watson claims that he is an objective educator/columnist and not a partisan hack , which critics, like me, brand him from his previous writings, so it would be refreshing to see a critique of some of his political icons in the Democrat Party.

I am breathtakingly looking forward to Professor Watson's expose of the sexual rogues of the Democrat Party in some future column. Go to it Professor Watson, I know you can do it!

Column in the MSM Paper Promoting "class warfare"

Below is another post sent to the Socialist, I mean, Main Stream Media Newspaper. South Florida has become a Hub for Liberals on the run. They parade around as "Moderates" however they are still lovin' Barry Soetoro.

To the MSM Marxist Newspaper,

Are you aware, Doug Lyons my liberal friend, that there are more millionaire Democrats in the Congress than Republicans? Your attempt at slandering Republicans just doesn't hold water. You probably didn't know that fact as you consider "working class" families as being one step away from being poverty stricken and only Democrats can feel their pain. Republicans are insensitive and uncaring people, according to you. How elitist can you get? Don't you consider people who work 60-80 hours a week and earn a million dollars, "working class" families? They work their butts off just like someone earning $30,000, maybe even more. All who work for a living should be considered "working class". Why don't you stop using the "class warfare" shibboleth because you don't qualify as a millionaire earner - neither do I fit into that income category. The difference between you and I is that I say more power to the guy/gal who's able to generate that income through hard work and due diligence. Those people are the job producers. Remember, none of us was ever hired by a poor person. Everyone in our great country has the opportunity to be successful and possibly earn a million dollars. Many of us will not achieve that level of income, but should we punish those who do by over taxing them? This is America not the former Soviet Union.

Are you aware that the top 1% of income earners (according to the I.R.S.) pay approx. 40% of the income taxes? That the top 5% pay approx. 60%? The bottom 50% of taxpayers pay only 3% of the total income taxes and many do not pay any taxes at all. What incentive do the close to 47%, of those paying no income taxes, have to put pressure on their lawmakers to rein in spending or to cut taxes? They couldn't care less, as they aren't going to pay taxes anyway. Your "class warfare" ploy is getting old and worn out and most people can see through this blatant ruse to gain Democrat votes. Robbing Peter to pay Paul so Paul will vote for you, seems to be the modus operandi of today's Democrats.

Shame on you for being so duplitictious in furthering your Marxist/Socialist agenda to the detriment of the rest of the country. November 2nd should've been a wake up call for you liberals, but you seem to be blinded to the facts by your liberal ideology.

Sincerely,

Chuck On The Right Side

Say a Prayer for the 3/5 Darkhorse Marines in Afghanistan

Tim King Salem-News.com
They are fighting it out in Afghanistan & they have lost 9 marines in 4 days; 13 since October.

(SALEM, Ore.) - "We are asking everyone to say a prayer for 'Darkhorse' 3rd Battalion 5th Marines and their families." That is how an email from our writer, Chuck Palazzo, another former Marine veteran living in Da Nang, Vietnam.
The Department of Defense along with the Marine Corps itself, are releasing information and concerned Marines all over the world are spreading the request for Americans to pray for this hard hit military group.
The San Diego Union Tribune reports that 13 Marines from Darkhorse have been killed in this region since October.
What we know is that a 21-year old Marine, Lance Corporal Randy R. Braggs of Sierra Vista, Ariz, who was attached to Camp Pendleton's 3rd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, was killed in action in Afghanistan, the Pentagon released the information regarding the loss of Randy Braggs on 8 November 2010]. He died two days earlier during combat operations in Helmand province.
Randy Braggs was the 13th member of 3/5 killed since the battalion moved into the Sangin area of northeastern Helmand province in October, including four felled in a single bomb attack on their mine-resistant all terrain vehicle.
Two other Marines were fatally shot at a patrol base in Sangin last week, the Marine Corps reports. It was initially indicated they were attacked by a rogue Afghan soldier who then fled the area, according to U.S. and NATO officials in Afghanistan. An investigation into the incident is continuing. I reported the extremely high desertion/attrition rate among Afghan Army recruits in 2006 and 2007 from Afghanistan. This obviously continues to be a serious problem, because the recruits who desert often join the Taliban or other ACM's (anti-Coalition Militaries).

Not only do they abscond with information about the inner workings of the ANA (Afghan National Army), but they also steal the U.S. manufactured Woodland camouflage uniforms that make them virtually indistinguishable from ANA regulars.
This is the Associated Press account, from the area of Afghanistan in which the 3/5 is operating. As we have reported many times in the past, Helmand, a particularly violent area, is regarded as ka key region in this fight:
U.S. Marines who recently inherited this lush river valley in southern Helmand province from British forces have tossed aside their predecessor's playbook in favor of a more aggressive strategy to tame one of the most violent places in Afghanistan.
U.S. commanders say success is critical in Sangin district — where British forces suffered nearly one-third of their deaths in the war — because it is the last remaining sanctuary in Helmand where the Taliban can freely process the opium and heroin that largely fund the insurgency.
The district also serves as a key crossroads to funnel drugs, weapons and fighters throughout Helmand and into neighboring Kandahar province, the spiritual heartland of the Taliban and the most important battleground for coalition forces. The U.S.-led coalition hopes its offensive in the south will kill or capture key Taliban commanders, rout militants from their strongholds and break the insurgency's back. That will allow the coalition and the Afghans to improve government services, bring new development and a sense of security.
The "Darkhorse" 3rd Battalion 5th Marines Commanding Officer, LtCol Jason Morris, made this statement to Marine families on the Battalion's Website:
After a very difficult first two weeks in Sangin, the Marines and Sailors of the Battalion have learned some hard lessons and adapted to a challenging operational environment.
Marines are patrolling daily and moving out into areas of the Sangin District that the Taliban have used as their sanctuaries for years. Some areas of the District have never had any central government authority and have been under tribal authority for centuries before the Taliban came.
So, our mission of clearing out the Taliban and protecting the people from their oppression and violence is a challenging one. Nevertheless, your Marine or Sailor is bravely mounting up and operating every day in these areas with confidence in his buddies, his equipment, and his training—and he is making a difference.
Already we are noticing that we are able to go farther into the rural and urban areas than last week and that resistance has waned in the areas we are aggressively patrolling. It helps that every time the enemy tries to resist us he loses, and we are getting more and more efficient at finding and destroying his IEDs.
And while the enemy has sent reinforcements into the area to shore up his losses, there is a definite sense amongst the people that the Taliban’s dominance is waning where there are Marines and they are more willing to talk to us and provide us information about their activities. Make no mistake this will be many months of hard work, but there is a positive shift in momentum that is palpable and the Marines’ confidence grows daily.
Another Associated Press report from November 2010 described the difficulty (and heavy casualties) the Marines were encountering during operations in that region of Afghanistan:
The Marines patrolling through the green fields and tall mud compounds of Helmand province's Sangin district say they are literally in a race for their lives. They are trying to adjust their tactics to outwit Taliban fighters, who have killed more coalition troops here than in any other Afghan district this year.

"As a new unit coming in, you are at a distinct disadvantage because the Taliban have been fighting here for years, have established fighting positions and have laid the ground with a ton of IEDs," said Lt. Col. Jason Morris, commander of the 3rd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment. "You have to evolve quickly because you have no other choice."
Many of the younger Marines also have had to cope for the first time with seeing their best friends die or suffer grievous wounds. Fifteen Marines have been killed and about 50 wounded since the battalion arrived in October [2010] — many by improvised explosive devices or IEDs.
So what can you do? Jason Morris says these Marines are living lean, "We are currently living on MREs and UGRs (tray-rats), so anything that can help break the monotony would be warmly welcomed."
Many people picture Afghanistan as a land of blazing sun and endless sand dunes, and that is not an accurate view. there are sand dunes, and in the south it gets very hot in the summertime, but for the most part Afghanistan is mountainous and cold.
Morris said, "The weather here continues to cool, with lows in the low 40s and highs in the mid 60s. I believe the rain will likely start in the next few weeks, and then our camps will probably turn into mud and turn everything the same shade of brown."
And as this Marine officer relates, once the rainy season sets in, it is likely that the rivers will rise and the wadis, used to maneuver vehicles during the dry season, will become impassable.

"Fortunately we have plenty of cold and wet-weather gear to keep up dry and warm, so don’t worry about us not having enough," Morris said. "Time is moving quickly, and the days are long, but the weeks fly by. Before we know it the holidays will be upon us and it will be 2011."
Want to help? Learn more visit the Website for: 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines, the link is listed below.
God Bless you and the members of the Darkhorse who are crushing the Taliban and demonstrating to the Afghans how to kick some tail. Don’t forget about MotoMail, and sending an extra pair of socks, some good ground coffee, and some etc.

January 2013

One sunny day in January 2013, an old man approached the White House from
Across Pennsylvania Avenue , where he'd been sitting on a park bench. He
Spoke to the U.S. Marine standing guard and said, "I would like to go in and
Meet with President Obama."

The Marine looked at the man and said, "Sir, Mr. Obama is no longer
President and no longer resides here."

The old man said, "Okay", and walked away.

The following day, the same man approached the White House and said to the
Same Marine, "I would like to go in and meet with President Obama."

The Marine again told the man, "Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Obama is no
Longer president and no longer resides here."

The man thanked him and, again, just walked away.

The third day, the same man approached the White House and spoke to the very
Same U.S. Marine, saying "I would like to go in and meet with President
Obama"

The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and
Said, "Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to
Speak to Mr. Obama. I've told you already that Mr. Obama is no longer the
President and no longer resides here. Don 't you understand?"

The old man looked at the Marine and said, "Oh, I understand. I just love
Hearing it."

The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said, "See you tomorrow, Sir."

Below we have a great Americanthinker.com article by a great writer, Wendy Wright.

Sharia and Obama's Foreign Policy

By Wendy Wright

A Christian woman who gave water to Muslim fieldworkers was accused by the women of blaspheming Muhammed. The women refused the water, claiming it was unclean because a Christian carried it. Asia Bibi, a mother of five, merely explained her faith. For that, she has been in prison for over fifteen months and has been sentenced to be hanged, according to The Telegraph.


Ashiq Masih, her husband, said, "I haven't told two of my younger daughters about the court's decision. ... They asked me many times about their mother, but I can't get the courage to tell them that the judge has sentenced their mother to capital punishment for a crime she never committed."


Pakistan outlaws blasphemy against Islam. It is punishable by death. Religious minorities are targeted for accusations, and while most are acquitted, they are oftentimes killed by mobs.


Last week, the U.N. again voted for a resolution against "defamation of religions" or "vilification of religions" as a violation of human rights. It's been called a global anti-blasphemy law, and it changes the concept of human rights from protecting people from persecution to condemning criticism of (a particular) religion. This nonbinding resolution, altered slightly this year, has passed every year since 2005 against the objection of the U.S. While Christianity formed the basis of the Western world's embrace of freedom of speech, religion, and conscience, this resolution would legitimize the Islamic prohibition against non-Muslim beliefs.


The United States joins in all nations coming together to condemn hateful speech, but we do not support the banning of that speech," said Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. "Indeed, freedom of speech and freedom of religion emanate from the same fundamental belief that communities and individuals are enriched and strengthened by diversity of ideas, and attempts to stifle them or drive them underground, even when it is in the name and with the intention of protecting society, have the opposite effect.


In Iran, a Muslim widow accused of adultery is sentenced to be stoned to death. When international activists and government leaders condemned the sentence and questioned the legitimacy of the Islamic-based trial, Iran released a supposed confession from the woman.


Sakineh Ashtiani drew international attention when her son alerted the outside world to her plight. The son and Sakineh's lawyer have since been arrested, and two German men who sought to interview her son have been detained in Iran.


The Washington Times reports that Iranian state television broadcast an interview of Sakineh saying, "I am a sinner." Her face was blurred, and her words, spoken in a regional language, were translated into Farsi. Statements purportedly from her son, lawyer, and the German journalists were also broadcast.


In the tape, Sakineh's son retracted his previous statements that Sakineh was tortured and criticized Sakineh's lawyers, one of whom has fled the country and received asylum in Europe for publicizing the case. The journalists accused a female activist in Europe of hiring them, and one said he would file a complaint against her.


Sanctions against Iran for its nuclear ambitions are taking a toll, and Iran initially appeared to relent from the harsh stoning sentence as international moral criticism mounted on top of the economic punishment. But this latest round of arrests and public "confessions" shows Tehran ratcheting up the tension between itself and Western countries.


Ironically, the "confessions" came the same week that the U.S. Senate held hearings on the ineffective U.N. women's treaty called CEDAW (Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women). Radical feminists and the Obama administration are pressuring the Senate to ratify CEDAW, calling it a priority in order for the U.S. to gain credibility in the international world on women's rights.


Melanie Verveer, Obama's ambassador on global women's issues, and other supporters stated that errant countries which have adopted CEDAW (like Iran) would be more likely to follow the treaty if the U.S. ratified it.


Concerned Women for America submitted testimony to the Senate pointing out that nations which are the worst abusers of women are also anti-American. They are not likely to change their ways because the U.S. adopts a treaty. And if the U.S. ratifies CEDAW, we would be subject to the U.N. committee that oversees its implementation. Representatives from countries that adopt CEDAW -- like Iran -- can sit on the committee.


To get an idea of how the CEDAW Committee has already operated, it has criticized countries for allowing Christian beliefs to influence policy and cultures. Christianity, the essential foundation for freedom of belief, speech, and religion, is frowned upon by both radical feminists and Islamists.


The Obama administration has great admiration for international law and believes that subjecting the U.S. to other countries' opinions will make us moral and accountable. Yet it seems unaware that its attempt to place America under the authority of international opinion and "law" jeopardizes our Christian-based liberties and freedom from Shariah-inspired tyranny.


In a recent article, "Stonings and Nuclear Weapons," I wrote, "If we want to see what America's enemies -- Islamist radicals -- have in store for us if we don't stop them, look at Sakineh. Would we want shariah law allowed, in any form, in America?"


We can add Asia Bibi and the thousands, if not millions, of Christians and women who have suffered at the hands of Islamic radicals. President Obama and Secretary Clinton should think twice about subjecting America to international law and bodies where the U.S. is easily outvoted or unrepresented.
