Have you ever wondered why it’s OK to make jokes about Catholics, the Pope, Jews, Christians, the Irish, the Italians, the FoxworthyPolish, the Chinese, the French including French Canadians etc, but its insensitive to make jokes about Muslims?
We need to level the playing field for the sake of political correctness…

 Jeff Foxworthy on Muslims:

  1. If you refine heroin for a living, but you have a moral objection to liquor, You may be a radical Muslim.
  2. If you own a $3,000 machine gun and a $5,000 rocket launcher, but you can’t afford shoes, You may be a radical Muslim.
  3. If you have more wives than teeth, You may be a radical Muslim.
  4. If you wipe your butt with your bare hand but consider bacon to be unclean, You may be a radical Muslim.
  5. If you think vests come in two styles: bullet-proof and suicide. You may be a radical Muslim. 
  6. If you can’t think of anyone you haven’t declared jihad against, You may be a radical Muslim.
  7. If you consider television dangerous but routinely carry explosives in your clothing, You may be a radical Muslim.
  8. If you were amazed to discover that cell phones have uses other than setting off roadside bombs, You may be a radical Muslim.

Six (only six?) examples Obama is purposefully enabling the Islamist cause

Written by Allen West on August 13, 2014

The only plausible explanation for many actions taken by President Obama and his administration is that they are working counter to the security of the United States of America. How else can one rationalize the following:

  1. The unilateral release of five senior Taliban back to the enemy while the enemy is still fighting us.

  2. Providing weapons of support to the Muslim Brotherhood-led Egyptian government — F-16s and M1A1 Abrams tanks — but not to the Egyptian government after the Islamist group has been removed.

  3. Negotiations with Qatar and Turkey, two Islamist-supporting countries.

  4. Negotiations with Hamas, a terrorist group.

  5. Returning sanction money, to the tune of billions of dollars, back to the theocratic regime led by Iran’s ayatollahs and allowing them to march on towards nuclear capability.

  6. Obama’s evident support of Islamists in Libya.

ConfusedIn an operation that was again unilateral with no Congressional approval, U.S. military support and resources were given to Islamist groups fighting against Moammar Qaddafy — and we know the results of that action. Not long after, one of the groups this administration armed, Ansar al-Sharia, took responsibility for the terrorist attack and murder of our U.S .Ambassador Chris Stevens, Sean Smith, Ty Woods, and Glenn Doherty at the Benghazi Special Mission Compound (SMC). Oh, and that same group claims it has established an Islamic caliphate in eastern Libya, based in Benghazi. Just two weeks ago, the United States of America evacuated the Libyan embassy in Tripoli due to security concerns.

But I guess it’s all hunky-dory there now, because according to the Washington Free Beacon, “The Obama administration has lifted longtime restrictions on Libyans attending flight schools in the United States and training here in nuclear science, according to a final amendment of the ban recently approved by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB).”

“Less than two years after the deadly terrorist attacks in Benghazi, Libya that killed four Americans, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is poised to sign off on an amendment reversing the ban, which was enacted following a wave or terrorist attacks in 1980s and prevents Libyans from studying these sensitive trades in the United States.”

We just evacuated Libya due to security concerns. There can be no doubt that Libya is an Islamic terrorist sanctuary state, thanks in no uncertain terms to Obama, and now he wants them to come here and learn how to fly planes and understand nuclear science?

Ok Lucy, ‘splain this to me.

Imperial-PresidentThe Free Beacon says “the original law effectively disqualified all Libyan nationals and those “acting on behalf of Libyan entities” from training in “aviation maintenance, flight operations, or nuclear-related fields,” according to the ban. “The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is amending its regulations by rescinding the regulatory provisions promulgated in 1983 that terminated the nonimmigrant status and barred the granting of certain immigration benefits to Libyan nationals and foreign nationals acting on behalf of Libyan entities who are engaging in or seeking to obtain studies or training in,” the amendment states.”

DHS spokesperson S.Y. Lee who told the Free Beacon that the Obama administration is reviewing its policies towards Libya “to see how they might be updated to better align with U.S. interests” in light of its revolution.”

If I may interject here, Libya is not a stable country and there can be no alignment with U.S. interests as long as there are al-Qaida affiliated groups freely operating in that country.

Of course this action is taken when the House and Senate is away on a five-week hiatus from D.C. but at least the House Judiciary Committee responded by acknowledging, “The terror threat continues and numerous news reports document recent terror-related activities coming from Libya.”

Why wouldn’t the Obama administration allow Kurdish Peshmerga members to come to America and receive flight training so they could be given quality helicopter gunships and destroy ISIS? Can anyone explain what the strategy and objective is here in lifting this ban with a nation that is or should be on the terrorist watch list?

Sorry, but I can only explain this one way: Barack Hussein Obama is an Islamist in his foreign policy perspectives and supports their cause. You can go back and listen to his 2009 speech in Cairo, where Muslim Brotherhood associates were seated front and center.Muslims in the White House Administration

All the circumstantial and anecdotal evidence points to that conclusion. The pivot away from the Middle East seems to be nothing more than an opportunity to enable Islamists and their goals. Anyone supporting this Libyan ban being lifted is indeed an enemy of this state.

The Obama administration’s foreign policy doctrine is self-described as “don’t do stupid s@#t”. But I guess that all depends on what your ultimate goal is.

bowers ISIS Williams

Written by Steve Bowers on August 15, 2014

One truly noteworthy news item this week: the death of Robin Williams. He was fun. Just when we need more of his fun, he abruptly leaves us. All of which is made sadder by his having done so by his own choice. Was the party that was his life, to which he invited us all, really that bad for him personally? How can he have possibly been so sad when he made us laugh so easily…and often. Fare well, Dear Prince of Laughter and (laughing) choirs of angels sing thee to thy rest.

However, the intense irony of Mr. Williams’ sadness while making so much laughter is surpassed by the irony of the passing of the Classiest Clown Ever being followed on the World Stage by the Islamic Funsters of I.S.I.S. Will we ever be able to forget their antics? They can pull off mass beheadings so gracefully. Truly memorable. And if our Prez truly gets off his duff and does something violent to them…may raucous gangs of Hellish demons drag them to their just fates.

All of which reminds me of another (sometimes) very funny man, the late Christopher Hitchens, a now reformed British atheist. Whenever he talked or wrote about atheism, he was out of his depth and not funny. But when he spoke about things he was knowledgeable about, he could be uproariously funny. I recall one speech wherein he expressed his confusion about why Muslims hate the Western modern World so much. He was perplexed by finding a complete lack of logic behind the Muslim Hostility towards “everyone else.” He concluded by saying “since they hate us so much, I feel it is time to give them a reason to do so.”

Who can disagree?

Christian Persecution

Written by Allen West on August 12, 2014

Sometimes it’s best to hear directly from those most harshly affected by the callous and feckless failures of Barack Hussein Obama. The letter cp 12below comes from a personal friend, Rebecca Simon, a patriotic American of Assyrian Christian descent.

Just last week my oldest daughter Aubrey and I watched one of our favorite movies, “The Last of the Mohicans.” What Rebecca Simon deeply fears is that she could be watching the same play out for her people, one of history’s great ancient civilizations. And yet the world dithers – especially our vacationing president.

If her letter — this plea to humanity — does not touch you, then join hands with those progressive socialists of the Democrat party who enabled the rise of Pol Pot’s Khymer Rouge and the killing fields of Cambodia.

The heart-rending fate of Assyrian Christians in Iraq haunts every corner of my being. I well up over the image of the fright in the circle of the tearful eye of a child next to the lifeless body of his mother. But the silent photos capturing a millisecond in the timeline of a genocide, don’t do justice to the horror of the calamity. The stories behind the still pictures must be even more horrific.

Yes, I admit. I am guilt-ridden.

I could have been one of those misfortunate Assyrian sisters in Iraq but by the grace of God, I was destined to be an American. I have witnessed my country’s history of unparalleled compassion towards the ill, the fallen, and the persecuted. Sadly, that history is not being played out on Assyrians. This isn’t because Americans have grown callous of worldly sufferings. No, not at all. The DNA of the magnanimous American is still intact. Rather, it is our new age government and the wicked villain in the White House that have misplaced the age-old American altruism.

To the wicked villain, a child in pain is the one whose Honduran parent paid thousands of dollars to have him adopted by America. A child in pain is the one who uses his tattooed and pierced body as a weapon in a street “knockout game.” A child in pain is one hooded if-I-had-a-son trouble-maker capable of breaking a grown man’s nose bone.

HashtagThe Assyrian Christian kids are not even worthy of being honored by Michelle O’s hash tag graphics. No doubt the kidnapping of 200 kids by Boko Haram being forced to convert to Islam was a tragedy. But equally tragic if not more so, is the forceful conversion to Islam of at least 200,000 Assyrians.

And where is the outrage by the Spanish bleeding hearts: Mr. & Mrs. Javier Bardem and Penelope Cruz? In their delicate artistic mind, does a Palestinian child have more rights to life than an Assyrian child? One needs to read to these Spanish-Hollywood couple the bloody history of multi-century conquest of Spain by Muslims and the forceful conversion to Islam of the Christian Spaniards.

And where are the moderate Muslims in all this? An anti-ISIS demonstration and a fundraiser benefit by many of the alleged moderate Muslims who’ve done pretty well in the West will go a long way in legitimizing their “moderate” claims. They cry foul only when Islam is under attack but when Christianity is under assault, they see no evil, hear no evil. Maybe they like the evil, I’m beginning to think.

And where are the petro dollars of Saudis and the Kuwaitis who express their fear of ISIS? A few gold bath tubs muslim-terror-300x180and sinks in their villas could buy water for some thirsty Sinjar Mountain hikers in northern Iraq. But charity isn’t in the cultural make-up of the Muslims, especially if it is to be given to a persecuted infidel.

On the other hand, the world seems to be conflict-fatigued dealing with other people’s problems especially if it means some military involvement. They probably think: Been there. Done that.

In the meantime, one of the oldest races of people, the Assyrians, the recipients of the 21st Century’s first genocide award are dying a slow death on our big screen TV’s. So far, they’re just a news story till we find something newer to cover because advertisers know fresh stories are what keep the consumers’ attention and prevent them from switching the channel. By the time, the media and the administration buries the story of the Assyrian genocide, Assyrians will be buried too, by the tens of thousands — likely without a funeral.

But for now, Assyrians have an ISIS-style freedom–the liberty to choose their death arrangement: beheading or starvation. Yes, ironically, the freedom they didn’t have in life, they get in death.

Marthas-FiddlerWonder if Michelle O and her spouse will discuss over the dinner table “this Assyrian choice” in their upcoming 16-day vacation. Perhaps they’ll rest at night knowing the media will portray some other entity as the villains of Iraq. The media plays the political god for these Godless people.

I hope this saga will be written by Godly historians and the Assyrian blood will stain the pages wherever B Hussein O’s name is printed. That may be the ultimate choice for the Assyrian martyrs…

Lawlessness Leads to Frustration and Desperation — On All Sides

BEGIN TRANSCRIPT from the Rush Limbaugh Show on August 14, 2014

RUSH:  Back to the phones we go, John, and once again in St. Louis. Welcome, sir.  It’s great to have you on the program.  Hi.

CALLER:  Hi, Rush.  First-time caller, longtime listener.

RUSH:  Great to have you here.

CALLER:  Thanks for taking my call.

RUSH:  Thank you, sir.

CALLER:  Yeah, I’m a retired physician who lives in North County in St. Louis about two miles from all the demonstrations that are going on.  From my perspective — we’re been here for over 30 years — I’m glad the police are stepping up and do this.  Well, a lot of us are concerned about the violences. (sic)  You gotta remember, the protestors have a right to protest as long as it’s peaceful. 

But around 4:30/five o’clock every night it turns violent.  I personally would like to have seen the police step it up even further to crack down this lawlessness and vandalism that’s going on here in St. Louis.  This is pathetic to see what’s happening here, to allow these people to break the law consistently.  Their so-called selective indignation is not appropriate. 

A year ago, last Fourth of July, as a retired physician I’m out here with my family, a young black man, who was a future collegiate basketball player. He was shot in the head and in the chest for nothing but standing up for his cousin, because of derogatory statements made after being seen by a bunch of young thugs on the street.  Now, I didn’t see any marching, any indignation.

RUSH:  Wait, wait, wait.  I missed that.  Who shot this kid?

CALLER:  A bunch of Afro-American kids. (garbled)

RUSH:  It was a gang? It was a gang shooting?

CALLER:  It was a gang, and they shot this innocent young man who was bound for college as a college basketball player.

RUSH:  Anybody know why they shot him?

CALLER:  Yeah, ’cause he stood up for his cousin, because they were making derogatory comments about her.

RUSH:  So he “dissed” these guys —

CALLER:  Yeah.

RUSH:  — while defending his cousin and that’s intolerable.  So, yeah.

CALLER:  And they pulled out a gun and shot him in the head, and I stabilized him ’til the paramedics got there.  You gotta remember, Rush, that the people that are coming in after the peaceful demonstrations are not even from Ferguson.  They’re from other parts of the area.  They’re coming in to cause problems, and those of us who are taxpayers here, we’re fed up with this!

RUSH:  Well, they’re —

CALLER:  I mean, consistently, gunshots! Twice a week we hear five to six gunshots going off in the community up here.  I really think I’m behind the police. Now, I’m not for shooting an innocent individual. I don’t care white, black, what have you.  And that needs to be evaluated, looked into appropriate way.  But what’s happening here in Ferguson is nothing but thuggery.  These people, especially after the sun goes down around here, they’re just causing problems.

You know, they’re throwing things, objects, the vulgar language. And then there’s been actual recording of gunshots being shot at the police.  To allow this to go on…  I thought we were a country of laws.  I’m ex-military, and I don’t believe in this.  I think something needs to be done to stop this. And to allow this to go on like this idiot governor we have? I think this is pathetic, Rush.

RUSH:  Well, I’ll tell you, I think that there’s a lot of frustration over lawlessness in the country.  It’s everywhere, and I think police departments are also fed up.  They’re human.  They’re citizens, too, and they’re human beings.  Look at the immigration laws.  We have the government of this country actively suing states which attempt to enforce existing immigration law. 

Immigration law counts for nothing anymore.  We have a president who is bragging about executive orders and executive actions — and if Congress won’t act, he will.  I submit to you that all of this sends a message, a subtle signal that the law, if it doesn’t apply to some people, it doesn’t apply at anybody. 

Imperial President ObamaIf people can get an exemption from it, if the president doesn’t have to obey the law, if the immigration laws don’t have to be obeyed… You throw in every other societal aspect that results in our culture pending crumbling and rotting. It’s a very slow process.  It has taken years.  This, I don’t think, happened overnight. 

But you have a general frustration on the part of everybody that there doesn’t seem to be any glue holding everything together.  The honor system doesn’t seem to even work, and the rule of law combined with the honor system is what has kept, for example, elected officials and law enforcement officials honest.  It all seems to be breaking down.  I actually think that in many places… I don’t know about Ferguson.

But I do know that in New Jersey we had a cop the other day who trashed Obama and he was fired, and it was all about, “Hey, if this guy can break the law, why can’t we?”  I think this attitude is effervescing out there all over this country, and when lawlessness happens to be celebrated by the media and laughed at because whoever’s breaking the law gets away with it and wins political in the process, I don’t think it can help but send a signal to people. 

Go to Chicago.  Has anybody been convicted or even tried for the wanton murders that are committed there every weekend, it seems?  So there’s a… I don’t know how to describe it.  It’s a slowly evolving reality that people think nothing is holding anything together anymore.  I think cops are every bit as susceptible to this as any other citizen is, and I think they’re as frustrated by it as anybody else is. 

They’re as frustrated by lawbreakers who get away with it. They’re as frustrated as anyone, maybe even more so.  How hard they work to bring people to justice and then technicalities get cases thrown out? It’s been going on for a long, long time — and then, at some point, a tipping point is reached.  So I understand you and our previous caller from St. Louis basically saying the same things.  So I appreciate your time.  I’m glad you took the time.  Thank you for waiting to get on.

NAFTA Is 20 Years Old – Here Are 20 Facts That Show How It Is Destroying The Economy

Image Credits: David Dees

by Michael Snyder

Economic Collapse Blog | August 15, 2014

 

Imperial President ObamaBack in the early 1990s, the North American Free Trade Agreement was one of the hottest political issues in the country. When he was running for president in 1992, Bill Clinton promised that NAFTA would result in an increase in the number of high quality jobs for Americans that it would reduce illegal immigration. Ross Perot warned that just the opposite would happen.

He warned that if NAFTA was implemented there would be a giant sucking sound as thousands of businesses and millions of jobs left this country. Most Americans chose to believe Bill Clinton. Well, it is 20 years later and it turns out that Perot was right and Clinton was dead wrong. But now history is repeating itself, and most Americans don’t even realize that it is happening. As you will read about at the end of this article, Barack Obama has been negotiating a secret trade treaty that is being called “NAFTA on steroids”, and if Congress adopts it we could lose millions more good paying jobs.

It amazes me how the American people can fall for the same lies over and over again. The lies that serial liar Barack Obama is telling about “free trade” and the globalization of the economy are the same lies that Bill Clinton was telling back in Cloward Pevin with explanationthe early 1990s. The following is an excerpt from a recent interview with Paul Craig Roberts

I remember in the 90′s when former Presidential candidate Ross Perot emphatically stated that NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) would create a giant “sucking sound” of jobs being extracted away from the U.S. He did not win the election, and NAFTA was instituted on Jan. 1, 1994. Now, 20 years later, we see the result of all the jobs that have been “sucked away” to other countries.

According to an article by the Economic Policy Institute on 1/3/14:

“Clinton and his collaborators promised that the deal would bring “good-paying American jobs,” a rising trade surplus with Mexico, and a dramatic reduction in illegal immigration. Considering that thousands of kids are pouring over the border as we speak, well, how’d that work out for us?

Many Americans like to remember Bill Clinton as a “great president” for some reason. Well, it turns out that he was completely and totally wrong about NAFTA. The following are 20 facts that show how NAFTA is destroying the economy…

#1 More than 845,000 American workers have been officially certified for Trade Adjustment Assistance because they lost their jobs due to imports from Mexico or Canada or because their factories were relocated to those nations.

#2 Overall, it is estimated that NAFTA has cost us well over a million jobs.

#3 U.S. manufacturers pay Mexican workers just a little over a dollar an hour to do jobs that American workers used to do.

#4 The number of illegal immigrants living in the United States has more than doubled since the implementation of NAFTA.

#5 In the year before NAFTA, the U.S. had a trade surplus with Mexico and the trade deficit with Canada was only 29.6 billion dollars. Last year, the U.S. had a combined trade deficit with Mexico and Canada of177 billion dollars.

#6 It has been estimated that the U.S. economy loses approximately 9,000 jobs for every 1 billion dollars of goods that are imported from overseas.

#7 One professor has estimated that cutting the total U.S. trade deficit in half would create 5 million more jobs in the United States.

#8 Since the auto industry bailout, approximately 70 percent of all GM vehicles have been built outside the United States. In fact, many of them are now being built in Mexico.

#9 NAFTA hasn’t worked out very well for Mexico either. Since 1994, the average yearly rate of economic growth in Mexico has been less than one percent.

#10 The exporting of massive amounts of government-subsidized U.S. corn down into Mexico has destroyed more than a million Mexican jobs and has helped fuel the continual rise in the number of illegal immigrants coming north.

#11 Someone making minimum wage in Mexico today can buy 38 percent fewer consumer goods than the day before NAFTA went into effect.

#12 Overall, the United States has lost a total of more than 56,000manufacturing facilities since 2001.

#13 Back in the 1980s, more than 20 percent of the jobs in the United States were manufacturing jobs. Today, only about 9 percent of the jobs in the United States are manufacturing jobs.

#14 We have fewer Americans working in manufacturing today than we did in 1950 even though our population has more than doubled since then.

#15 Back in 1950, more than 80 percent of all men in the United States had jobs. Today, only 65 percent of all men in the United States have jobs.

#16 As I wrote about recently, one out of every six men in their prime working years (25 to 54) do not have a job at this point.

#17 Because we have shipped millions of jobs overseas, the competition for the jobs that remain has become extremely intense and this has put downward pressure on wages. Right now, half the country makes$27,520 a year or less from their jobs.

#18 When adults cannot get decent jobs, it is often children that suffer the most. It is hard to believe, but more than one out of every five children in the United States is living in poverty in 2014.

#19 In 1994, only 27 million Americans were on food stamps. Today, more than 46 million Americans are on food stamps.

#20 According to Professor Alan Blinder of Princeton University, 40 million more U.S. jobs could be sent offshore over the next two decades if current trends continue.

For much more on this, please watch the video by Charlie LeDuff. It is well worth a few minutes of your time…A Service Member

So if NAFTA is so bad for American workers, then why don’t our politicians just repeal it?

Well, unfortunately most of them are not willing to do this because it is part of a larger agenda. For decades, politicians from both major political parties have been working to slowly integrate North America. The eventual goal is to turn North America into another version of the European Union.

Just check out what former general and CIA chief David Petraeus had to say about this

“After America comes North America,” Petraeus said confidently in answering the question about what comes after the United States, the theme of the panel discussion. “Are we on the threshold of the North American decade, question mark? I threw that away — threw away the question mark — and boldly proclaimed the coming North American decade, says the title now.” He also boasted about how the three economies have been put “together” over the last 20 years as part of the “implementation” of the North American Free Trade Act.

The “highly integrated” forces of Canada, the United States, and Mexico, Petraeus continued, will become the world’s powerhouse for energy and science. “There are four revolutions that are ongoing at various levels in each of the countries but foremost in the United States,” said the former CIA chief, who now serves as chairman of the KKR Global Institute. “The energy revolution is the first of those, which has created the biggest change in geopolitics since the rise of China since 1978.” The other “revolutions” include IT, manufacturing, and life sciences, which, “as highly integrated as they are, allow you to argue that after America comes North America,” he added.

Econ-Plans-590-LAWhen you hear our politicians talk about “free trade”, what they are really talking about is integrating us even further into the emerging one world economic system. And over the past couple of years, Barack Obama has been negotiating a secret treaty which would send the deindustrialization of America into overdrive. The formal name of this secret agreement is “the Trans-Pacific Partnership”, and it would ultimately result in millions more good jobs being sent to the other side of the planet where it is legal to pay slave labor wages. The following is a description of this insidious treaty from one of my previous articles

Did you know that the Obama administration is negotiating a super secret “trade agreement” that is so sensitive that he isn’t even allowing members of Congress to see it? The Trans-Pacific Partnership is being called the “NAFTA of the Pacific” and “NAFTA on steroids”, but the truth is that it is so much more than just a trade agreement. This treaty has 29 chapters, but only 5 of them have to do with trade. Most Americans don’t realize this, but this treaty will fundamentally change our laws regarding Internet freedom, health care, the trading of derivatives, copyright issues, food safety, environmental standards, civil liberties and so much more. It will also merge the United States far more deeply into the emerging one world economic system. Initially, twelve nations will be a party to this treaty including the United States, Mexico, Canada, Japan, Australia, Brunei, Chile, Malaysia, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and Vietnam. Together, those nations represent approximately 40 percent of global GDP. It is hoped that additional nations such as the Philippines, Thailand and Colombia will join the treaty later on.

Unfortunately, most Americans are as uneducated about these issues as they were back in 1994.

That is why we need to get this information out to as many people as we can.

So what is your perspective on all of this? Please feel free to share your thoughts by posting a comment below…

Ferguson police say Michael Brown was suspect in robbery


Complete Message

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2014/08/15/ferguson-police-say-michael-brown-fit-description-strong-arm-robbery-suspect/

A suburban St. Louis police chief on Friday identified the officer whose fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager ignited days of heated protests, and released documents alleging the teen was killed after a robbery in which he was suspected of stealing a $48.99 box of cigars.

Ferguson, Mo., Police Chief Thomas Jackson said the robbery took place just before noon on Saturday at a convenience store roughly 10 minutes before a police officer identified as Darren Wilson fired the bullet that killed Michael Brown. Police say that the shot was fired after a struggle touched off by Wilson’s confronting Brown. Jackson said Wilson is a six-year veteran with no disciplinary action on his record.

At a press conference Friday afternoon, authorities said the police officer who shot Brown did not know he was a robbery suspect at the time.

The news conference came after nearly a week of sometimes-violent protests and calls by many, including President Obama, for local law enforcement to be more transparent about the circumstances surrounding the shooting. Police previously said they withheld Wilson’s identity because of the potential for threats on the officer and his family. The officer has been on administrative leave since the shooting.

Police released still images and were planning to release video from the robbery, at a QuikTrip store in Ferguson. Jackson said Wilson, along with other officers, were called to the area after a 911 call reporting a “strong-arm robbery” at a nearby convenience store. He didn’t immediately release details about the alleged robbery, saying more information would be released later.

Police provided few other details about the police officer at the morning news conference and did not take any questions. Jackson said Swisher Sweets cigars were stolen in the robbery. 

According to the police reports, Brown and his friend Dorian Johnson were suspected of taking a box of cigars from a store in Ferguson that morning.

“I am incensed,” Laura Keys, 50,told The St. Louis Post-Dispatch. “I can’t believe this is the tactic they are using, bringing up a robbery to make the victim look like he was the person who created this whole mess.”

ferguson opinion

Police have said Brown was shot after an officer encountered him and another man on the street. They say one of the men pushed the officer into his squad car, then physically assaulted him in the vehicle and struggled with the officer over the officer’s weapon. At least one shot was fired inside the car before the struggle spilled onto the street, where Brown was shot multiple times, according to police.

But a much different story has been told by Johnson, who says he was walking down the street with Brown when he was shot. He has said the officer ordered them out of the street, then grabbed his friend’s neck and tried to pull him into the car before brandishing his weapon and firing. He says Brown started to run and the officer pursued him, firing multiple times.

WATCH: Minister’s explosive Ferguson rant goes viral

The attorney representing Brown’s family, Benjamin Crump, said Brown’s parents are “incensed” by what he calls “the old game of smoke and mirrors.” He says the family was blind-sided by Friday’s announcement.

Crump says “it’s bad enough they assassinated him, and now they’re trying to assassinate his character.”

Tensions in Ferguson boiled over after a candlelight vigil Sunday night, as looters smashed and burned businesses in the neighborhood, where police have repeatedly fired tear gas and smoke bombs.

But on Thursday, county police in riot gear and armored tanks gave way to state troopers walking side-by-side with thousands of peaceful protesters. The dramatic shift came after Gov. Jay Nixon assigned oversight of the protests to the state Highway Patrol, stripping that authority from the St. Louis County Police Department.

“All they did was look at us and shoot tear gas,” Pedro Smith, who has participated in the nightly protests, said Thursday. “This is totally different. Now we’re being treated with respect.”

The more tolerant response came as President Obama spoke publicly for the first time about Saturday’s fatal shooting — and the subsequent violence that shocked the nation and threatened to tear apart Ferguson, a town of 21,000 that is nearly 70 percent black and patrolled by a nearly all-white police force.

Nixon’s promise to ease the deep racial tensions was swiftly put to the test as demonstrators gathered again Thursday evening. But the latest protests had a light, almost jubilant atmosphere among the racially mixed crowd, more akin to a parade or block party.

The streets were filled with music, free food and even laughter. When darkness fell — the point at which previous protests have grown tense — no uniformed officers were in sight outside the burned-out QuikTrip convenience store that had become a flashpoint for standoffs between police and protesters.

Nixon appointed Highway Patrol Capt. Ron Johnson, who is black, to lead the police effort. Johnson, who grew up near Ferguson and commands a region that includes St. Louis County, marched alongside protesters Thursday, joined by other high-ranking brass from the Highway Patrol as well as the county department. The marchers also had a police escort.

“We’re here to serve and protect,” Johnson said. “We’re not here to instill fear.”

Georgia Patriots Tell Atheist Group Attacking Prayer: “Stop Bullying Our Kids”


Complete Message

Read more at http://freedomoutpost.com/2014/08/atheist-groups-bullies-georgia-high-school-football-team-prayers-georgia-patriots-respond-stop-bullying-kids/#vDFsS7CeTUx2mmF5.99

Reported by Tim Brown

On Tuesday, it was reported that the American Humanist Association (AHA), an atheist group, was going after football coaches at Chestatee High School in Gainesville, Georgia because they quoted Scripture from the Bible on team documents and banners, while also leading their team in prayer. The atheists said it was unconstitutional, which is a complete and utter falsehood. Well the town was not going to take it sitting down and yesterday it’s being reported that the town is telling the atheist group to stop bullying their kids.

“There’s really no defense for doing this,” AHA attorney Monica Miller told FoxNews.com on Tuesday. “It’s not even solely student prayer — it’s teachers and coaches praying with students. And we have reason to believe it’s not an isolated event.”

Miller’s organization sent a letter threatening a lawsuit against Hall County Schools, claiming that an unnamed “concerned citizen” had contacted them.

cp 08The letter specifically focused on Head Coach Stan Luttrell.

“At times, the head coach has led the prayers, which is an egregious violation of the Establishment Clause,” the letter read. “This involvement in prayer as a ‘participant, an organizer, and a leader’ would unquestionably ‘lead a reasonable observer to conclude that he was endorsing religion.'”

“Unfortunately, the school’s actions in unconstitutionally advancing and endorsing religion do not end with the prayers,” read the letter.

The problem with appeals by the AHA to the First Amendment is the fact that the First Amendment starts with “Congress shall make no law.” Yet, these arrogant people are claiming that a law has been violated when there is no law to be enforced. Therefore, the neither the coaches nor the students were doing anything unlawful by quoting Scripture, writing Bible verses or praying.

CP 03Notice these God haters weren’t adamant about secular humanism, which is a religion, being taught in public schools. Nope, they are just fine with that as long as the Creator is not welcome in the education process.

On Wednesday, the people of Gainesville demonstrated that they were not going to take out of town atheists telling their coaches and kids what they can and cannot do.

John Starnes wrote:

More than 200 people turned out in defiance of the self-described atheist group early Wednesday morning for an impromptu prayer rally in the middle of the Chestatee High School football field.

As we say in the Deep South, local residents are preparing to back up and bring it.

“If the atheist group doesn’t like the prayer, tell them to stick their fingers in their ears,” said one caller to radio station WDUN.

Parents of football players also sounded off – lighting up the telephone lines at the popular news radio station.

“I am a mom of two of the football players on the CHS football team and I consider it an honor and a privilege to have my boys on a team that is led by men that believe and trust in God,” one caller said. “I think it’s a shame for one person to try and take that away from them.”

While the atheists are mad that the coaches are promoting Christianity, again they are free to do so. In fact, if they are Christians themselves, they are commanded to do so (Matthew 28:19-20).

Representative Doug Collins of the ninth district in Georgia issued a statement:

“The liberal atheist interest groups trying to bully Chestatee High School kids say they have reason to believe that expressions of religious freedom are ‘not an isolated event’ in Northeast Georgia.  They’re right.  In Hall County and throughout Georgia’s 9th district, we understand and respect the Constitution and cherish our right to worship in our own way.”

That is exactly right! However, Collins has a bit more to say:

“This morning, while Chestatee students gathered on their football field to support their school leadership and exercise their rights, unspeakable human rights atrocities continued to happen across the world in places that have no regard at all for religious freedom. It’s utterly disgusting that while innocent lives are being lost in Iraq and other places at the hands of radical religious terrorists, a bunch of Washington lawyers are finding the time to pick on kids in Northeast Georgia. I want the football players and all the students at CHS to know I support you, I’m here for you, and yes, I’m praying for you.”

Obama defending muslims TwoAmen! Georgia’s ninth district should be thankful to God for such a man to stand with them and their kids. I certainly will keep Collins in my prayers, thanking God for him and praying that he continue to be bold about this matter.

Can you imagine how the atheists are going to complain about him? After all, he’s not in Georgia. He’s in Washington. But have no fear, there are wonderful Christian people who will support and defend the congressman, just as he has the people there in Georgia. Among them are the great people at Liberty Counsel. Matt Staver and his team are poised to help all Christians who are lawfully executing the Great Commission here in America.

This comes on the heels of League City, Texas standing up to another atheist organization, Freedom From Religion Foundation, that was seeking to intimidate people to keep them from praying at government meetings.

Americans, Christianity is under attack from atheists, Islamists, socialists and communists in our own country. Some of them even occupy our state houses, the federal congress and even the White House. But the word from the Lord Jesus is not to fear, but to be of good courage, expose the evil in the land and then point men to the law of God and give them the command to repent and all will be well.

There is victory for those willing to fight for it.

I want to give one final word to the atheists who support these bullying tactics against God’s people. Why are you so rabid about fighting against a person you claim doesn’t exist? I’ll tell you why. The apostle Paul described you as those who think you are wise, but you’re really fools.

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Professing to be wise, they became fools,… -Romans 1:18-22

Stop being a fool!

This Beautiful Dance to Honor 57 Million Babies Killed in Abortion Will Blow Your Mind

http://www.lifenews.com/2014/08/14/this-beautiful-dance-to-honor-57-million-babies-killed-in-abortion-will-blow-your-mind/

by Steven Ertelt | Washington, DC | LifeNews.com

National death rate percentagesWashington, DC (LiveActionNews) — Mollie Thomas was born and raised in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina. Her parents are a loving couple, who grew her up in the Christian faith. From the young age of five Mollie had an awareness of the love of Jesus. When she was eight Mollie’s church held a presentation put on by a local crisis pregnancy center.

molliethomasDuring the presentation a clip of an abortion was shown. Mollie remembers seeing the baby’s limbs being pulled off its body while in its mother’s womb. She describes the dismemberment scene as ‘nightmarish’, and was shocked she was actually allowed to watch it.

Although the image was quite gruesome, it left an undeniable mark on her heart. Mollie is now a wife of nine years to her husband Jonathan and mother to a adorable three-year-old girl. She’s also a gifted dancer who teaches ballet in Indiana. Mollie’s dances are a expression of the deepest parts of her. When the dance ministry at Mollie’s church put on a production, they asked her to do a dance to the Lord’s Prayer. Instead of just doing a dance to that prayer, Molly decided to turn her dance into a artistic prayer for the lives of the unborn.

In 2013 a man told Mollie he had a vision of her on a beach picking up a conch shell. When she picked it up she was able to hear the sound of multitudes. Although she initially had no idea what that meant, later God revealed to her that the sound was the masses of aborted children. That image along with her husband’s media production skills helped bring forth this powerful dance.

dance

Third of our generationThe simplicity and beauty of this dance moved me to contact Mollie and interview her. I wanted to know what she desired to accomplish by releasing this dance publicly. She said: ‘I asked God for years to please give me some sort of outlet for the anguish I’ve felt over abortion. There was a sense of release I felt in my heart after the completion of this piece. It has been a major accomplishment for me personally, and If God chooses to use it beyond that, then I am deeply honored’.

In the last decade we’ve seen an increase in the release of pro-life themed movies, songs and artwork. I asked Mollie if she thought the arts played an important role in the pro-life movement.

She responded: ‘I believe God desires to use creative voices in the culture to combat the war that rages against His beloved creation, and the pro-life movement is in great need of them. Through history, art has given expression to movements and it should be essential in the pro life movement. Through the arts, I believe some of the hard truths that people either don’t want to hear, aren’t aware of, or are hardened to in some ways, can be delivered in fresh and abstract ways that move past their objections and touch their emotions. I don’t care what the art form is, I just want to see more Christ driven artists from every discipline, come together with their own voices and create masterpieces of life and love that can penetrate and transform even the hardest of hearts.

Since adoption is an essential part of reducing abortion, I asked Mollie for her thoughts on it. Her answer was consistent with the character and passion of her heart.

‘I believe adoption is critical. I believe that beyond heart transformation, it’s the only option. My husband and I have determined that we can’t fully speak and stand against abortion unless we are willing to be a part of the solution. We are currently preparing our lives to pursue adoption’.

Tremaine's

Eagle EggsMollie is one of many women who is grieved by the massive loss of life through abortion. What sets her apart, is the way she’s using her gift to speak about the issue. There’s a part of the video where countless grains of sand fall through Mollie’s hands. The imagery speaks to me of the precious lives that were slain, fallen to the ground and never to be recovered this side of heaven. It’s a sobering reality, yet one that Mollie addresses with grace and compassion. The best art is the kind that touches the heart, and moves the audience to action. May Mollie’s dance lead you to use your gifts, talents and skills to speak out against the atrocity of abortion.

Exclusive–Mitch McConnell: Harry Reid Must Allow Votes on House’s Anti-Executive Amnesty Bills


Complete Message

13 Aug 2014

Imperial President ObamaSenate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell is calling on Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to allow the U.S. Senate to vote on the two House-passed border crisis bills that would block President Barack Obama from continuing or expanding his executive amnesty via the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program.

“The President seems to have forgotten that he does not possess the authority to re-write our immigration laws and that, on the contrary, the Constitution requires that he take care that the laws be faithfully executed,” McConnell said in a statement provided exclusively to Breitbart News. “The House has passed two bills to address the humanitarian crisis on our southern border, and the Senate should vote on them. That’s why I began the process of putting them on the Senate’s legislative calendar shortly before the current recess, and I urge Majority Leader Reid to schedule a vote on these bills as soon as the Senate returns.”

McConnell’s statement comes as Senate Budget Committee ranking member Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) is calling on Americans to melt the U.S. Senate’s phone lines and ask their senators, both Democrat and Republican, to demand a vote in the U.S. senate on the House-passed bills.

“Recent developments suggest the President’s planned executive amnesty could be increasingly imminent and broad in scope,” Sessions said in his Tuesday evening statement to Breitbart News, citing how House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi has called on the President to give the “broadest possible” executive amnesty to perhaps as many as ten million illegal aliens.

Pelosie Needs to go to a home“House Democrat Leader Pelosi – clearly one of the White House’s closest allies – has just urged the President to issue ‘the broadest possible’ executive actions,” Sessions said.Open borders groups have grown bolder and louder in their unlawful demands, launching a campaign for the President to ‘go big,’ and demanding that he ‘stand up’ to Congress and ‘expand DACA.’”

Sessions said the Senate must vote on the House-passed bills. “The steps that must be taken are clear: the Senate must vote on the House-passed measure to stop these unlawful actions,” Sessions said. “It is true that Majority Leader Reid is blocking it from a vote. But Reid acts only with the blessing of his members in the Democrat conference – so the American people have the power to force it to a vote through their elected senators.”

Several other senior GOP senators, including National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) chairman Sen. Jerry Moran (R-KS), John Hoeven (R-ND), and Richard Shelby (R-AL), are also demanding Reid allow a vote on the House bills.

Reid spokesman Adam Jentleson hasn’t responded to a request for comment on whether he’ll allow such a vote in the Senate, but this is a politically vulnerable issue for Democrats—especially since the House passed a border crisis package before leaving for August recess while Reid’s Senate headed out to vacation without passing anything. The issue is also rattling several Democrats up for re-election like Sens. Mary Landrieu (D-LA), Mark Pryor (D-AR), Mark Begich (D-AK), Kay Hagan (D-NC), and Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH).

Sessions told Breitbart News in a recent interview that “yes,” conservatives can beat Reid if they fight on this battlefield.

“I think the Majority Leader Harry Reid is the palace guard of the Obama agenda,” Sessions said. “He goes to work every day, blocking anything that exposes what Obama’s doing—particularly this unpopular immigration policy. How does he maintain that power? He maintains that power as a result of every single Democratic senator backing him. At some point, the American people need to know that—they don’t fully understand it right now. This kind of vote, this challenge on the immigration policy, can be the clear simple issue: Do you vote to block the President from doing this? Or do you vote to support him? That’s the only way that vote will be determined, and procedurally it will mean voting against Harry Reid—because he’s wedded to the Obama agenda. They’ve got to break ranks, and they can do that. There’s no reason why a Democratic senator has to vote with Harry Reid on every single vote and support President Obama on every single vote.”

“What Did You Say?” The Idiocy continues to Grow Unchecked


Kerry: Boy With Severed Head ‘Should Be in School’

Read more at http://joeforamerica.com/2014/08/kerry-boy-severed-head-school/#COSWRbXqQhgPzk0i.99

Posted by Tad Cronn on Aug 13, 2014

A photo has emerged of a young apparently on a trip to the Middle East, holding up a severed human head for his proud terrorist father.

The photo was published in the Australian press to illustrate the problem of Australian Muslims going to the Middle East for terror training and the danger of them then returning home to carry out the Islamist agenda.

john-kerrySecretary of State John Kerry — at a press conference with U.S. Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel, Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop, and Australian Minister of Defense David Johnston — denounced the photo, saying, “That child should be in school. That child should be out learning about a future. That child should be playing with other kids, not holding a severed head and out in the field of combat.”boy

Ya think?

I do get what Kerry is trying to say, even if he said it in the lamest way possible. The problem, though, is that the kid is in school and learning about a future — but it’s an Islamist school and an Islamist future that the world’s terrorist Muslims want for the entire human race.

The problem isn’t that the boy isn’t in school, it’s that the boy is the face of modern Islam — a little cherub bringing a human sacrifice to the altar of Allah.

Right now, that movement is most strongly represented by what the media have taken to calling the Islamic State.

It’s the ISIS caliphate.

I’ve said in other writings that the world has not yet come to terms with the full impact of ISIS’s declaration of the first caliphate in nearly a hundred years on Obama’s watch.

ConfusedPresident Obama’s foreign policy has cleared the way for ISIS to declare the caliphate, another major embarrassment added to the Obama legacy.

But far more importantly, the caliphate is a beacon that will draw Islamist fighters to it, representing the hope of empire in a way that no mere Muslim nation has done or can do. Merely establishing the concept of a caliphate as a reality conjures visions of the conquest of Byzantium, the career of Saladin and the victories of the warlord Mohammed himself. A caliphate, to the Muslim mind, once more puts the ghost of the Holy Roman Empire and the entire West at the mercy of Muslim swords.

The news from the Middle East bears out this analysis, as U.S. officials are seeing Islamist fighters abandoning al-Qaida and other Muslim Brotherhood offshoots to swear allegiance to the caliphate, which has far more money and ambition than any mere terror group. The caliphate plots to take all of Iraq, Syria and any other country it can get its hands on, then it is coming for Europe and the United States.

Multiple reports indicate that Islamists from Western countries are being trained and shipped back to their homes, including the United States, to carry out whatever plots the caliphate can concoct. Given the strength and vision of ISIS, it’s likely that such enemy agents won’t just be looking at the usual “blow up and party” attacks but at long-term subversion of liberty and democracy.

“We have evidence that there are a significant number of Australian citizens Obama defending muslims Twowho are taking part in activities in Iraq and parts of Syria, extremist activities and terrorist activities,” Bishop said at the press conference with Kerry. “Our fear is that they will return home to Australia as hardened, homegrown terrorists and seek to continue their work here in Australia.”

The same goes for the U.S., where the Border Patrol has caught numerous terror suspects trying to sneak across the border but untold numbers have gotten through. To illustrate the point, investigative filmmaker this week dressed up as Osama bin Laden and crossed unhindered from Mexico into the United States this week.

Still venting over the photograph of the child with the severed head, Kerry said, “This is utterly disgraceful, and it underscores the degree to which ISIL (ISIS) is, you know, so far beyond the pale with respect to any standard by which we judge even terrorist groups. …”

He’s not wrong, but Kerry still seems to not be coming to grips with the full reality here.

The word you’re looking for, John, is “evil.” That’s what ISIS and the entire Islamist movement is, and until the U.S. accepts that and acts accordingly, we’re all at their mercy.

What the world looks like from the White House


Complete Message

The White House has a strange view of the world.  President Petulant, our retired while in office Chief Executive is doing his very best to ignore the reality of the world.  We remember when, in 2008, his biggest complaint was that the world didn’t like us.  Maybe not, but at least the right people feared us.  Those days are long gone.

The thing, frankly, that concerns us the most is that President Petulant is committing US special operations into Iraq and we’re sure he has no intention of supporting them when – not if – things get ugly.

michael brownEveryday someone, somewhere is murdered.

You read a quick write up in your local paper or catch it on your local news program.

If you are like me, you may say a prayer for the families involved and then thank GOD your family is ok. Then you move on with your day.

Unfortunately there are people looking to take advantage of other peoples pain.

Politicians and Race Baiters…

Lets bring you up to speed.

An unarmed black teenager named Michael Brown was shot and killed Saturday, August 9th by a police officer in suburban St. Louis. The officer in question has been put on paid leave pending an investigation. The only information released about the police officer in question was he sustained an injury during this altercation.

The officer who shot and killed an unarmed teenager in Ferguson, Missouri was injured in the alleged altercation, according to Ferguson Chief of Police Tom Jackson.

Jackson, who spoke on the phone with News 4′s Laura Hettiger Wednesday morning, said the officer “was hit” and the “side of his face was swollen.”  The chief did not say if the officer suffered any broken bones.

Police said shortly after the shooting that 18-year-old Michael Brown was walking with a friend in the middle of Canfield when an officer attempted to exit his vehicle. Police said Brown pushed the officer back into the police car. According to police, Brown then entered the officer’s vehicle and a struggle ensued over the officer’s weapon.  Police said during the physical altercation a shot was fired inside of the car.

Witnesses to the shooting, however,told a different story. A friend of Brown’s told News 4 Saturday they were walking on the street when the officer approached them.  He said they had their arms up when police opened fire.

Politicians will want to be seen having something to do with this one way or another.

Black Killing BlackRace-baiters like Al Sharpton didn’t let any moss grow underneath his feet. Al “I want attention” Sharpton is front and center, using the death of a young black man to stay in the spotlight.

Personally I want justice! If this police officer murder this young man then this police office needs to go to jail. If this young man did something to make the police office fear for his life, then the parents will need to take responsibility for what has happened.

As of this second, the public does not have enough information to reach a conclusion. Unfortunately this will not keep people, politicians, or  race-baiters from trying this investigation in the media .

ISIS ‘genocide’ aims for Christian-free nation

Iraqi believers urge Obama to stop ‘extermination’

cp 12

author-imageBob Unruh

The attacks on Christians in Iraq by the Islamic State terror army, formerly known as ISIS, amount to “genocide” in pursuit of a “Muslim-only” nation, and President Obama needs to stop the “exterminations,” contend two representatives of Christians in the troubled nation.

ConfusedWND reported Tuesday atrocities by ISIS include beheading of children, crucifixion, execution and mass burials, sometimes of live victims.

Two advocates for the Iraqi Christian community, which has existed since the time of Christ, told Sean Hannity on the Fox News Channel that Obama seems not to realize the gravity of the ISIS threat.

Nahren Anweya of the Assyrian Church of the East told Hannity the beheadings are one tactic in an ISIS effort to kill all non-Muslim.

“They are at full force with this genocide, and I believe the president is very well aware of it,” she said. “I don’t believe he understands the urgency of this genocide.”

She said Christians in Iraq were horrified to hear Obama say the military would protect “American personnel” but no one else.

“He needs to acknowledge the fact there is an … extermination,” she said.

She said reports of the atrocities are true.

“Basically they will cut off a child’s head with a small knife … slowly,” she said.

Such moves are intended to intimidate, she said.

“I want the president to understand Obama defending muslims Twothis is a direct attack against Christianity,” she said. “This is a holocaust.”

Mark Arabo, a spokesman for the Chaldean Americans, said Iraq now is experiencing a “full blown massacre.”

“These are the most horrific atrocities that the world has ever seen,” he said. “We owe it to humanity to act.”

David Curry, president of Open Doors USA, which has served the Christian community in Iraq for years, said ISIS wants “to make Iraq a ‘Muslim only’ nation, and as a result they want all Christians out.”

He said the situation for Christians in Iraq “has deteriorated each year over the past 10 years.”

“Iraqi Christians have faced kidnappings, threats and even death for being followers of Jesus. And they have little faith in their government to provide security as we see in the tragedies unfolding the last month.”Christian Persecution

Open Doors said while the Christian population of Iraq in the 1990s was estimated at 1.2 million, it’s now down to 300,000.

Jerry Dykstra, a spokesman the organization, which is generating global support for Iraqi Christians, told WND.

One Christian family, he reported, related a “horrifying” story of escape from Mosul, where Christians have lived for millennia until ISIS ordered them to flee, convert or be killed.

The father, a former government employee, said his family got almost no notice before being ordered to leave. On their departure, they were stripped of anything valuable, including rings, property and vehicles.

One relative had a hard time taking off her wedding ring.

“The veiled lady asked for a metal cutter,” the Christian family reported. “Fortunately she got it off herself before the cutter arrived; otherwise she wouldn’t only have lost her ring but also her finger!”

Another woman saved her wedding ring by hiding it in the diaper of her 10-month-old.

The organization also reported many Christians are flooding into Kurdistan to escape the advance of ISIS.

WND reported Tuesday the 5-year-old son of a founder of Baghdad’s Anglican church was cut in half in an ISIS attack.

The report cited an emotional Canon Andrew White, chaplain of St George’s Anglican Church in Baghdad.

“I’m almost in tears because I’ve just had somebody in my room whose little child was cut in half,” he said. “I baptized his child in my church in Baghdad. This little boy, they named him after me – he was called Andrew.”

The report said it happened in the Christian village of Qaraqosh after Kurdish forces left and Islamic State fighters arrived.

A Catholic.org report quoted Arabo, a Chaldean-American businessman, confirming the beheading of War on Christianschildren by ISIS fighters, who then “put their heads on a stick and have them in the park.”

“The world hasn’t seen this kind of atrocity in generations,” he told CNN.

The report, which included horrific images, said the terrorists “who have invaded Mosul and other ancient Christian communities in Syria and Iraq have made music videos of themselves murdering civilians and captured soldiers.”

“They are literally enjoying the act of killing and the fear and suffering experienced by others. This sadism may be the purest manifestation of evil witnessed since the Rape of Nanking during WWII.”

Muslims in the White House AdministrationJeff King, president of International Christian Concern, which has staff members traveling in Iraq, has evaluated many of the reports and finds them “completely consistent with who these guys are.”

“They’re absolute barbarians. We’re at a loss of words to describe who these guys are.”

The aid group Barnabas Aid, which provides assistance to the persecuted church worldwide, also reported recently that “hundreds of thousands” of Iraqi Christians are facing a “humanitarian crisis” while fleeing from the terror of ISIS fighters.

“At least 200,000 Christians are now thought to be fleeing towards the Iraqi Kurdistan region. Some of the displaced had already fled to the Nineveh plain from Mosul, which was taken by ISIS. … A number of towns have reportedly been completely emptied of their Christian populations,” the report said.

Palestinians see it as tactic to force long-term cease-fire

author-imageAaron Klein

Aaron Klein is WND’s senior staff reporter and Jerusalem bureau chief. He also hosts “Aaron Klein Investigative Radio” on Salem Talk Radio.

iccTEL AVIV – The Palestinians have a behind-the-scenes understanding with the Obama administration to use the Palestinian threat of pursuing international war crimes against Israel to force the Jewish state to agree to a long-term cease-fire, according to Egyptian diplomatic sources involved in truce negotiations.

Israel and Egypt view the understanding as a tactic to pressure Israel and not as a serious plan to go to the International Criminal Court, or ICC, the sources said.

Last week, the Palestinians held meetings in Rome to discuss joining the ICC, with the ultimate goal of filing charges against Israel.

“Israel has left us with no other option,” said Riad Malki, the Palestinian foreign minister, speaking at The Hague last week.excuss me

The PA has asked the Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist organizations to sign a document agreeing to allow the PA to represent them How coward terrorist fight number Twoat the ICC as “the State of Palestine.”

The news comes as truce talks with Hamas abruptly ended today after rockets were fired at Israel from Gaza Strip just two hours before a 72-hour cease-fire was set to expire.

Hamas, for its part, denied it was behind the attacks, but the terror group warned it will renew its rocket war if truce talks fail.

Israel today amassed forces along the Gaza border, sending a clear signal it is ready to renew its offensive against Hamas if the truce talks indeed fall apart.

Egypt yesterday announced Israel and Hamas agreed to extend a short-term truce to five days while a long-term ceasefire is being negotiated.

A spokesman for the Israel Defense Forces told WND: “The IDF remains alert and maintains a high level of preparedness with both defensive capabilities, and striking capabilities in order to address a renewed aggression and will immediately respond to any threat to Israel.”

Detroit police urging calm after cops shoot suspect, unruly crowd gathers

The Detroit News

August 14, 2014

Detroit — In light of clashes between citizens and police in Ferguson, Mo., Detroit police officials are taking steps to quell unrest in the city following an incident Wednesday in which an unruly crowd here had to be dispersed after officers shot a suspect.

A crowd gathered near Berkshire and Nottingham on Wednesday after Detroit police officers opened fire on a pair of men when they reportedly tried to run the officers down with their SUV. Police say the officers witnessed the men illegally purchasing a gun.

One of the suspects was shot in the arm and taken to an area hospital. The other man was arrested. 

In the wake of the incident, the crowd reportedly became so unruly that other units had to be called in to help. Some in the crowd, upset because officers shot one of the suspects, reportedly invoked the situation in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson, where tensions are high after officers shot and killed a man some witnesses say was unarmed and trying to surrender. Police there say the man, 18-year-old Michael Brown, tried to grab an officer’s gun.shooting

Protesters in Ferguson on Wednesday threw Molotov cocktails at officers, who used tear gas and smoke bombs to disperse the crowd.

During Wednesday’s situation in Detroit, one man crossed the yellow police line and allegedly tried to attack an officer, who used pepper spray to stop him. The man was taken into custody.

Detroit Police Chief James Craig said he’s taking steps to calm citizens, considering what’s happening in Missouri.

“My view is to keep dialogue with the community open,” he said Thursday morning. “There may have been some upset over Ferguson and expressed their frustration during our investigation (Wednesday).”dangerous

Craig said he will instruct his neighborhood police officers to reach out to the community. In March, the chief launched the NPO program, with help from a Skillman Foundation grant, to strengthen ties between police and the community.

“Our plan is to ensure our NPOs are in the neighborhoods maintaining communication,” Craig said Thursday.

Meanwhile, the Detroit Police Department is nearing the end of federal oversight, which the city agreed to in 2003 to avoid lawsuits alleging police misconduct including brutality and deplorable conditions of confinement. Prior to the agreement, there were several shootings by officers that some say hadn’t been properly investigated.

U.S. Department of Justice officials say the police department has since made significant steps toward fixing the issues that necessitated the three consent decrees.

Last week, Detroit law officials and the U.S. Department of Justice filed a joint motion in federal court asking a judge to terminate the oversight, and Justice entered an 18-month transition agreement with the police department, in which federal authorities would review Detroit police internal audits and conduct onsite visits to ensure police department reforms are sustained.

Ron Scott, director of the Detroit Coalition Against Police Brutality, who was instrumental in bringing federal oversight to the city, said there’s still a rift between many citizens and police.

“I think the situation in Ferguson could easily happen here,” he said. “We saw the tip of the iceberg last night, where the smallest thing could spark an incident. People feel disrespected, with the stop-and-frisk policy, and all these militarized raids.

“It happened in ’67, and it could happen now. I’m not hoping for it; I’m not advocating for it, but I’m just saying there’s tension in the street.”

Obama Empowers ISIS, HAMAS and Muslim Brotherhood **WARNING GRAPHIC VIDEO**

ISIS Assists Hamas; Their Brotherhood Nexus. Egypt Outlaws Muslim Brotherhood; Obama Empowers Them. What’s Going On? Commentary by Adina Kutnicki.

As ISIS wages a barbaric push across the entire Mid East and beyond, it is easy to forget that their genocidal goals are no different than Boko Haram, Al Qaeda and every Islamic foot soldier, whether Sunni or Shia.

SIGNIFICANTLY, ISIS (aka ISIL) is deeply committed to Hamas and vice versa. So, whereas ISIS exhorts blatant threats to America, rest assured, Hamas is on board. In effect, while Barack HUSSEIN Obama consorts with Hamas’s Brotherhood within his administration, Egypt’s leadership has outlawed the MB and jailed its leadership. 

THE question becomes: is it any longer in doubt whose side the POTUS is on, despite this and that rhetoric? 

IS terrorists (illustration)
ANYONE who doubts the deep and abiding connections (via their fealty to Shariah law mandated jihad) between the Muslim Brotherhood and ISIS – of which Hamas is the Brotherhood’s Egyptian bastard child – must take off their blinders. Forthwith.

AS ISIS (aka ISIL) lays a bloody swathe across the Mid East and Africa, rest assured, America (the rest of the west too, yet America is their foremost target) is not far behind. Pay attention to their own words, they mean every word of it. Paradoxically, while they threaten this and that…

I say to America that the Islamic Caliphate has been established,” Abu Mosa, a spokesman for the terror group known as the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS), told VICE Media in a video interview posted online Thursday. “Don’t be cowards and attack us with drones. Instead send your soldiers, the ones we humiliated in Iraq.”

“We will humiliate them everywhere, God willing, and we will raise the flag of Allah in the White House,” he added.

don’t be fooled by the following sop The terror group President Barack Obama threatened to strike in Iraq Thursday evening…”  

Basically, the Islamist-in-Chief – and his White House surrogates – has no choice but to offer up a pittance of assistance, as mid-terms are looming and the majority of Confusedpublic opinion doesn’t have his back on a multiplicity of fronts, particularly as images of Islamic genocide plays out across their screens. Regardless, he has no interest, nor inclination, in defeating ISIS! Period.

IN fact, if not for Obama Inc., ISIS would not be going from strength to strength. The gory relationship is detailed within.

ADDING horror atop horror, please, don’t veer away…

According to the report, the boy was the son of a founding member of Baghdad’s Anglican church.

The ACNS added:

In an interview today, an emotional Canon Andrew White told ACNS that he christened the boy several years ago, and that the child’s parents had named the lad Andrew after him.

“I’m almost in tears because I’ve just had somebody in my room whose little child was cut in half,” he said. “I baptised his child in my church in Baghdad2. This little boy, they named him after me – he was called Andrew.”

On Sunday, we also reported that ISIS murderers have now taken to burying women and children alive, in addition to systematically beheading Christian children in a campaign of terror and genocide that would make Hitler proud.

Exit questions:

  1. Will Obama ever get off his thumb and take serious action against ISIS? 
  2. And will the world ever demand ISIS be held accountable for their crimes against humanity? 
  3. And will liberals ever take a stand against the child-murdering barbarians that make up ISIS?

YET, as mentioned above, before Americans/westerners can begin to digest the bulls eyes on their backs, they must understand that ISIS/Al Qaeda (one and the same, a terror tweak here and there) is deeply involved with Hamas’s genocidal war against Israel.

In effect, by clarifying their nexus, one exposes two linchpins: supporting Hamas is akin to supporting ISIS; both are knee deep in plans to destroy America too! Mind you, their symbiotic relationship (“detailed within”) started long before Hamas’s most recent missile war.

FOR the record, ever since ISIS/Al Qaeda et al. gained a foothold into Sinai, they have been terrorizing Israel, even though it was (mostly) kept under wraps. Not only that, if not for the fact that late Prime Minister Menachem Begin handed over the Sinai to secure “peace” with Egypt (a precursor and a precedent for the Oslo Peace/Death Accords), unprecedented in the annals of warfare. Hence, the loser, also the aggressor, was rewarded for their efforts! Fast forward to 34 years and onward, the Sinai has become the LARGEST terror haven, bar none. {side note: under Mubarak’s rule the Sinai was relatively – at least in Mid East terms – stable. Now, recall, the Islamist-in-Chief ordered Mubarak to “GO NOW”…}

As Operation Protective Edge holds in a temporary ceasefire, evidence has come out revealing the extent of the extremist Sunni group Islamic State’s (IS, formerly ISIS) involvement in the terror war against Israel from the Hamas stronghold of Gaza.

Terror organizations associated with IS and Al Qaeda have been proven to be joining the fight against Israel in Gaza, firing rockets on Israeli civilian population centers and attacking IDF troops.

On Sunday the Abdullah Azzam Brigades declared it had fired a Grad missile towards the Israeli town of Mivtahim located near southern Gaza. The announcement comes after similar ones last month by the Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis and Majlis Shura al-Mujahidin organizations.

IS terrorists have already been proven to be active in Gaza in a video uploaded by the group in July, showing them firing rockets on Israel. Perhaps more troubling is a Channel 10 report which on Sunday exposed that in recent months black IS flags have been commonly seen in Arab-Israeli towns in northern and coastal Israel, notably in the cities of Nazareth and Akko.

Since the beginning of Operation Protective Edge on July 8, the IS and Al Qaeda-associated organizations in Gaza have announced the deaths of at least 13 of their terrorists in the fighting against the IDF and Israel.

The 13 include Abdullah Awani al-Fara, Ahmed Omar Abed al-A’al, Jaber Hamdan Abu Jaber, Saeed al-Lahawani, Usa Mohammed al-Sha’ar, Yusuf Jalal Barkat, Hamza Yusuf Muamar, Eyman Abed al-Rauf al-Sheikh, Hamza Halad al-Kadi, Mohammed Hamdan, Rasam Abu A’adra, and Mohammed al-Hamida.

The list repeats Abdullah Awani al-Fara’s name to reach a total of 13, a technique being used rampantly in the manipulation of casualty figures being presented about the operation.

A video posted last Friday shows terrorists of the IS and Al Qaeda affiliated organizations active in Gaza. Masked terrorists can be seen making declarations in front of the black IS flag and firing mortar shells at Israel.

Viewer discretion is advised given that the video contains very graphic imagery of a mutilated child’s body.

LESSON LEARNED: ceding land NEVER paves the way to ultimate peace! Besides, Israel’s leader never know who will succeed the so-called “peacemaker/dealmaker”.

ALAS, the above is a lot to absorb. Sorry…but connecting the geo-political dots – with an emphasis on Islamic/Muslim Brotherhood terror – is this blogger’s specialty.

Anti Christ BARACK-OBAMAADDING to these frightening conclusions, internalize the following: whereas Egypt has outlawed the Muslim Brotherhood – placing its leaders on trial and then some – Barack HUSSEIN Obama has ensconced many of their leadership within his administration! More specifically, they are so comfortable in their entrenchment that the Muslim Brotherhood have their own political party in America! But don’t forget this tidbit: Hillary Clinton is deeply implicated with the Muslim Brotherhood, not only while Secertary of State but for many years beforehand.

SO, the fact that the “Freedom and Justice Party” (an oxymoronic name, par excellence) has been dissolved, well, who could have foreseen this…

Egypt Court Dissolves Muslim Brotherhood Party

CAIRO—Egypt’s administrative court on Saturday dissolved the political party of the banned Muslim Brotherhood and ordered its assets liquidated, the state news agency reported.

The decision against the Freedom and Justice Party comes after a recommendation by the court’s advisory panel that noted the party’s leaders had already been accused, and in some cases convicted, of murder and inciting violence.

The recommendation added that the police investigation stated the party headquarters and offices were used to store weapons.

The Middle East news agency said the decision is final.

European Press photo Agency

The court decision is part of a wider crackdown against the group and its members that landed thousands in jail, including many sentenced to death on charges of inciting violence.

The government declared the Brotherhood a terrorist group late last year, accusing it of orchestrating a wave of violence to destabilize the country after the military overthrew President Mohammed Morsi, a Brotherhood member, in the wake of mass protests against him.

The group denies the charges, and has kept up its protests against the government. Mr. Morsi himself is in jail facing a number of charges, including conspiring with foreign groups to destabilize Egypt.

The party was founded by the Brotherhood in 2011 after the overthrow of President Hosni Mubarak and it went on to dominate subsequent legislative elections.

The decision comes ahead of new parliamentary elections, the first since Mr. Morsi’s ouster, expected later this year.

In light of all the above, it becomes painfully clear that Obama Inc. is light years behind Egypt – of all places – and is inviting ISIS to attack; in the Mid East, Africa and onto America!

If this wasn’t the case,

Union Households Not Happy with Their Union Bosses


Complete Message

Unions, especially public employee unions, are quite rightfully taking a beating lately.

Scott Walker drove a stake through the heart of public employee unions in Wisconsin and survived a viscous onslaught from Democrats and their union owners in the process.

The UAW got their clock cleaned in Chattanooga, TN in a union election at Volkswagen plant, a plant where the management was not only not hostile to the union, but welcomed them and worked with them to organize their workers.  Then the recent SCOTUS decision that held that public employee unions like SEIU and AFSCME could not organize home health care workers.

The bottom line isn’t going unnoticed, although it is going unpublicized.  For example, in Wisconsin, every school district that complied with Act 10, the legislation curtailing public employee union contracts, no tax increases were necessary to fund schools and districts that had been facing huge deficits were suddenly facing balanced budgets or surpluses.

A number of districts in very liberal cities signed contract extensions with their teachers unions to avoid Act 10.

In every one of those districts teachers were laid off and taxes were either increased or budgets slashed in other areas to pay for teacher benefits.

This week, a new wrinkle got publicized although we had to stumble across it as opposed to hearing about it on a major news outlet.  Not even FoxNews reported it.  The Oregon Catalyst reported the follow good news for tax payers and bad news for union bosses.

Because of a deal struck by Governor John Kitzhaber, Oregonians won’t have the opportunity to end forced union dues in the public sector this year. However, a just-released public opinion poll makes it clear that if the Public Employee Choice Act had been on this November’s ballot, most voters likely would have supported it.

The poll, conducted for National Employee Freedom Week (August 10-16) asked adults across America:

“Should employees have the right to decide, without force or penalty, whether to join or leave a labor union?”

Nationwide, 82.9 percent of respondents answered Yes. Of the 500 respondents in Oregon, a resounding 84 percent answered Yes.*

Union-BossesThis poll may be surprising to some, but not to us here at CurmudgeonCentral! because we’ve followed the results of right to work legislation, most recently in Wisconsin. The Wisconsin Teachers Union and AFSCME, the two major public employee unions lost up to 75% of their membership and millions of dollars in dues.  The biggest losers in the lost dues was the Democratic Party, because their largest donors are unions.

It’s time for conservatives to take heart and start working toward granting the right to work in states where unions still hold the workforce – and the taxpayers – captive.  Given the alternative, workers would prefer to spend the outrageous amounts collected by their unions and given to Democrats on their families than on their union bosses lavish lifestyles.

These Two Businesses in Ferguson Did NOT Get Looted… Can You Guess Why?

While scores of businesses in Ferguson were being looted by out of control rioters Sunday night, a couple of them went the evening without incident.

If you’re wondering why, then check out the following picture for the answer. Nobody is robbing St. Louis Ink Tattoo Studio anytime soon. Or County Guns, for that matter.

The two north county businesses share a storefront in a Florissant strip mall less than ten minute drive from the epicenter of last night’s riots in Ferguson. After hearing of the roving bands of looters, Mike Gutierrez knew he had to protect his tattoo shop. He brought a posse with him, including Adam Weinstein, owner of County Guns, who was acutely worried about criminals getting their hands on his merchandise.

“We didn’t want them coming in here and then running around with a bunch of free guns,” Weinstein told Daily RFT when we arrive at the store around 12:30 a.m. this morning. Weinstein was outfitted with an assault rifle, pistol and tactical vest. Gutierrez cradled his own rifle in his hands.

(Via Riverfront Times)

(Pictured: Mike Gutierrez (left) and Adam Weinstein (third from left) brought guns to guard their store during the riots in Ferguson last night.)
Pictured: Mike Gutierrez (left) and Adam Weinstein (third from left) brought guns to guard their store during the riots in Ferguson last night.

It turns out that when violent looters come face to face with people prepared to kill to defend their property, the looters tend to choose a ‘safer’ target.

N.J. town erupts after council votes to rename Kennedy Center as the Obama Center

The Washington Times – Monday, August 11, 2014

The governing body of one New Jersey town voted in favor of renaming the local Kennedy Center after the current White House head — and calling it the Barack Obama Center — and some residents aren’t exactly happy.

Philly.com reported that the renaming came at the request of Willingboro Township Mayor Jacqueline Jennings, after she recalled how the black population in the region reacted with excitement at the campaign and election of Mr. Obama.

“I think that people have a sense of pride about him,” she told Philly.com. “We had so many new people register to vote, people who had never voted before, people who were disenfranchised. … All of a sudden, we had … people wrapping around the buildings when the polls opened. It was a sense of history. Everybody wanted to be a part of it.”

But plenty of local residents are upset at the town council’s name change.

historic

Kristina Darlin wrote on the Burlington County Times Facebook page: “What’s next — naming malls after terrorists since he negotiates with them!! What a disgrace to America!!”

Lindsey Rotteau wrote, The Blaze reported: “The only place his name should appear is in school textbooks stating he was the worst president in our history. The only CHANGE he made was making people not be proud to be an American!”

Meanwhile, graduates of the former John F. Kennedy High School expressed outrage over the name change, too.

“This is an outrage and shouldn’t even be considered,” wrote Karen Lydon, The Blaze reported. “The name should stay the way it is now honoring President Kennedy!”

Imperial President ObamaPresident Barack Obama’s low approval rating is hurting the chances of congressional Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections, a new poll has found.

According to a McClatchy-Marist poll conducted Aug. 4 of 1,035 adults, 42 percent of voters say their negative views of the president make them more likely to vote for a Republican in November rather than a Democrat.

The poll also found that, for the first time during this election cycle, more people said they’d vote for a Republican than a Democrat for Congress — 43 percent to 38 percent. And the preference for Republicans holds across regions and gender.

“The Democrats are sputtering,” said Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist Institute for Public Opinion, in a statement.

Obama’s job approval rating is hovering at a near historic low for the poll at 40 percent, comparable to other polls in recent weeks.

If his mouth is open he must be lyingThe results of the survey mark a significant divergence from voters’ opinions earlier in the year.

In December, the survey found that voters were evenly split in their support for the two major parties, while in February, a majority favored the Democrats by a margin of 2 percent. In April, the public favored Democrats by 6 percent, at 48 percent to 42 percent, the poll noted.

Independents appear to have the most influence on the shifting numbers, offering a 12-point margin of support for Republicans over Democrats, the poll found.

“More people see themselves as independents, and those people seem to have bailed on Obama,” Miringoff said.

ObamaKingGeorgePIX-300x128Democratic candidates, meanwhile, appear to be aware of the negative effect the president’s approval rating is having on their chances, and are increasingly focusing on issues that traditionally belong to the GOP, according to Politico.

Specifically, many Democrats are discussing issues such as balancing the budget, tax cuts, and border security in their advertising, while failing to mention their party affiliation.

obama-liar4-266x189“It’s pretty clear why Democrats would charade as Republicans in districts coast to coast — on every big issue, voters prefer Republicans to Democrats,” Liesl Hickey, the National Republican Congressional Committee’s executive director, told Politico.

“But by portraying themselves as something they are not, these Democrats are playing a dangerous game that is destined to backfire with voters.”

You May Want To Be Sitting Down For This One – Maybe Have a Drink Or Two Or Three…

by: the Common Constitutionalist

Eco-Formula-590-CI

What is the refrain of the left whenever anyone suggests tax cuts? Naturally it is, “How are you going to pay for them?”

And what about cutting government spending? Well, Democrats will cry, in unison, that there is no where to cut. By cutting spending, we will be ripping food out of the mouths of needy children, or some such nonsense.

obamamoney1Remember this statement – “There Is No Where to Cut“.

And we can’t forget the “Tried and True”, tax cuts for millionaires and billionaires will only hurt the middle class.

As a rather obvious aside: paying for tax cuts bugs the crap out of me. Why should we have to “pay” for a tax cut? It’s our money in the first place. But the government naturally treats our money as theirs first, and if there is anything left over, which they claim there never is, they will consider giving it back to us, the people.

Anywho, speaking of whining about tax cuts, there’s this from just a few months ago. A column written by Steve Benen entitled, “The Magical Cost of Tax Cuts“.

In it he describes a Republican plan to make between $156 billion and $310 billion of temporary tax cuts permanent. He writes: “How in the world does the GOP intend to pay for this?” As it turns out, Republicans don’t even intend to try to pay for the tax breaks. Republicans want to make permanent hundreds of billions of dollars in business tax breaks, but they don’t want to find offsets to pay for any of the tax cuts.” (remember this also).

He continues with the typical liberal diatribe of why not spend the money on extending unemployment benefits rather than tax breaks for business. The Republican priorities are screwed up – blah-blah-blah.

So it appears to be common knowledge to both the political class and the intelligentsia that the government has no money to spare. So it was a surprise to see McPaper, USA Today, reporting on a rather startling discovery (not startling at all) by USASpending.gov that our government actually does “waste” money. The site was set up, intending to make federal spending more transparent. That’s a laugh.

Well it sure did that – so transparent, it’s invisible.619

See, what the site disseminated is that the government was “missing at least $619 billion from 302 federal programs”.

Yep, you read that right – $619 billion! And I’ll bet that number is low – way low. I bet 50% of government spending is either misused, wasted or just goes “missing”.

USA Today continues, saying that the government “data that does exist is wildly inaccurate, according to the Government Accountability Office, which looked at 2012 spending data. Only 2% to 7% of spending data on USASpending.gov is ‘fully consistent with agencies records’, according to the report.”

Wait… What?! 2 to 7% is accurate?! So in other words, virtually all, about 95% of all government spending data is at the very least “inaccurate”.95

Want an example? Health and Human Services, HHS, failed to report $544 billion. How do you just not report a half a trillion dollars? Easy – because the government has become so large that it is literally unaccountable to the people.

Want some more? USA Today writes that, “The Department of Interior did not report spending for 163 of its 265 assistance programs… The result: $5.3 billion in spending is missing…”, and for least 22% of all government contracts awarded, “the spending website literally doesn’t know where the money went.”5.3

Frankly, this is quite literally criminal – and I do mean criminal – like jail time criminal.

I’ve always known that it was bad, but even I didn’t figure on this, and it is probably much worse than even this report portrays.

In the past, I have proposed that every government department could easily cut its budget by 10%, no problem. Now with this information, I’m going to revise it to reflect the Harding/Coolidge model.

Immediately cut the government by 50% – and that’s just a start!

ISIS Suicide Bombing Instructor Blows up Class By Accident: Feel-Good Story of 2014

“Now I can only show you this once..”  Who says there’s only bad news in the papers?

In a terrorists training facility just north of Bagdad, an ISIS commander who was teaching 21 trainees how to successfully blow themselves up, apparently is – or should I say ‘was’ – a stickler for details: He blew them all to smithereens by detonating a suicide belt loaded with explosives.

Right about now you’re probably wondering if this were true, who reported the story? I don’t know, but here’s how the Belfast Telegraph reported it:

Raad Hashim, who works at a liquor store near the site of the bombing, burst out laughing. “This is so funny,” he said. “It shows how stupid they are, those dogs and sons of dogs.”

 On a more serious note, he added: “It also gives me pain, as I remember all the innocent people that were killed here.”

 “This is God showing justice. This is God sending a message to the bad people and the criminals in the world, to tell them to stop the injustice and to bring peace. Evil will not win in the end. It’s always life that wins over death.

 Another local told the newspaper: “I heard this today when my friend rang me in the afternoon to tell me about it. He was so happy as if he was getting married, which made me happy as well. In pictures: The rise of Isis

 “I hope that their graves burn and all the rest of them burn as well. I was not happy with the number killed, though: I wanted more of them to die, as I remember my friend who was killed by a suicide bomber in 2007.”

 A further 15 people were wounded in the explosion, according to police and army officials, which took place at a compound situated in the northeastern Salahuddin Province.

 The instructor was not named, but was described to the NYT by an Iraqi Army officer as a prolific recruiter who was “able to kill the bad guys for once.”

Leave it to the Irish to make this warm-hearted – but I love it. Virgins for everybody!

police_stateA Utah congressman wants to strip federal agencies of their paramilitary power, which is increasingly being used to intimidate American citizens, he says, destroying whatever small level of trust the people still have in their government.

Rep. Chris Stewart, R-Utah, introduced HR 4934, also called the Regulatory Agency De-militarization Act or RAD, in late June, and it has since gained more than 30 co-sponsors in the House.

“When we get back to Washington (from August break) we’ll get right back to working on this RAD bill, because people know it’s just so unnecessary for the federal government to have this kind of power,” Stewart told WND. “You’ve really got to twist yourself into a pretzel to defend this type of power.”

Government is now out of control and is routinely ignores the Constitution. Get your autopgraphed copy of “Police State USA.”

Police State 02In recent years, nearly every federal regulatory agency – from the U.S. Department of Education, to the Food and Drug Administration and the Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration – has deployed some kind of SWAT-type unit with high-powered assault rifles, helmets, menacing black uniforms with faces covered, body armor and militarized armored vehicles.

Stewart said it’s disturbing for Americans to read stories of federal regulators armed to the teeth and breaking into homes and businesses with no reason to think there would be resistance.

Stewart said the root of the problem goes back to the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.

In a state of panic, Congress reacted by passing legislation creating the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Buried in the Homeland Security Act of 2002 was language that granted arrest and firearms authority to the criminal investigative wings of federal agencies operating under the U.S. Office of the Inspector General.

“Like a lot of times, we write bad legislation in the heat of a crisis,” Stewart said. “We did it with Dodd-Frank in reaction to the banking crisis. So that’s exactly what happened here; they gave this authority to federal agencies that never had it before. We have to pull it back now, because it creates so much distrust with the America people.

“Survey after survey shows the American people just don’t trust big government anymore and they shouldn’t because this is nothing but an intimidating show of force.”

Americans have seen what the escalation of an event can look like when federal regulators call out tactical paramilitary units. It happened in Freedom is not dictator friendlyNevada earlier this year at the ranch of Cliven Bundy, when the Bureau of Land Management brought a sniper team to the ranch, killed some of Bundy’s cattle and threatened him with guns over a legal dispute about unpaid grazing fees. The tense standoff finally ended as the BLM backed down in the face of increasing numbers of ranchers and militia groups converging on the scene, many with their own weapons.

But it’s not just the BLM that’s armed like a National Guard infantry unit. The DOE, the FDA, the IRS, the EPA, the Agriculture Department, the Commerce Department, the Social Security Administration and dozens of other agencies have all been arming themselves. And when they have guns, they buy ammunition – lots of ammunition. Even the Postal Service has joined the ranks of federal agencies that have sent out requests to purchase large amounts of ammunition in recent years, prompting people to ask the obvious question: Why?

Why, for instance, would the Social Security Administration need to put in a request for 174,000 rounds of “.357 Sig 125 grain bonded jacketed hollow-point” bullets as it did last year?

Hollow-point bullets are meant to have maximum kill power and would not be needed for target practice.

Gun owners groups support billGeorge Washington regarding 2nd Amandment with border and logo

Van Cleave, president of the Virginia Citizens Defense League, said his organization is giving its full support to Stewart’s bill, which he believes is long overdue. The reason, he said, is because many times the federal agencies will call out their SWAT units simply because their target holds a gun permit.

“The overwhelming number of gun permit holders are law-abiding, peaceful people. It’s been a long-time concern of our organization, because all this militarization of police is really not good for anyone in the country, from gun owners to anyone else, and it seems like every government organization now has its own SWAT team,” Van Cleave told WND. “But the big question is why do they need that? We have the Posse Comitatus Act that tried to keep the military and police separate, and this seems to be an end-run around that.”

Van Cleave said the military’s mission is very different from the police or regulatory mission.

“Police mission is to come in and resolve a situation as peaceably as possible whereas the military you come in and you kill them, and that’s why we don’t want that in this country,” he said. “Police are to bring peace to a situation, not kill as many people as necessary to get from point A to point B. Police are to try to avoid using deadly force at all cost, not so for the military.”

The other problem Van Cleave sees with the federal SWAT teams is they could easily touch off a violent confrontation, such as almost happened at the Bundy ranch.

“They often dress in all black, they have no name or number on their badge, their faces are often covered, and you really don’t know what is going on as they’re breaking in on you,” he said. “It’s easy to mistake them for a bunch of gang bangers breaking into your house. These no-knock warrants combined with these tactical teams are dangerous to normal citizens. The excuse they give is it’s to stop evidence from being flushed down the toilet. Our civil liberties are far more important than trying to get every little drug dealer in the drug war, which is a failure anyway, and coming in with machine guns.”

SWATT or SETT?Truman

Stewart said his bill will be an easy sell in the House. Even some Democrats will support it, he predicts.

“When you ask them what is it you don’t like about this bill it’s almost fun to watch them squirm? Who in the world thinks these agencies need SWAT teams?” he said. “The agencies themselves, they say, ‘Oh, it’s not a SWAT team it’s a Special Event Tactical Team or SETT.’ There is no difference. The American people are smart enough to know that.”

The agencies also have not been very forthcoming with information about their SWAT teams, Stewart said.

“We would ask these agencies, well, what are the rules of engagement for using these tactical units and they would say ‘oh we can’t tell you that,’” he said. “So we would ask how often are they used and under what circumstances and it’s, ‘Oh, we can’t tell you that either.’ They can’t say how many times or where they’re deployed.

DHSStewart said the House leaders will likely wait until after the November election to send their bill to the Senate.

“We’re going to get a number of Democrat co-sponsors on this,” he said. “That is very important to us, because we can’t send what appears to be an overly partisan bill to the Senate on this. But the House has sent hundreds of pieces of legislation to the Senate, and they die sitting on Harry Reid’s desk. We’re going to keep working on it, keep building co-sponsors, particularly Democratic co-sponsors, so it will take that amount of time (until after the November elections) anyway. We could send it right now, but I want it to pass.

“Sometimes you do things for the sake of messaging, but this is something I hope actually becomes law. I think we’ve got something here we can actually get through the Senate and put on president’s desk.”

Stewart said that while the problem began under President George W. Bush, the rate of militarization has increased under President Obama.

What the bill would do?Comming Soon 02

The RAD Act has three pieces:

1. It repeals the arrest and firearm authority granted to Offices of Inspectors General in the 2002 Homeland Security Act.

2. It prohibits federal agencies, other than those traditionally tasked with enforcing federal law – such as the FBI and U.S. Marshals – from purchasing machine guns, grenades and other weaponry regulated under the National Firearms Act.

3. It directs the Government Accountability Office to write a complete report detailing all federal agencies, including Offices of Inspectors General, with specialized units that receive special tactical or military-style training and that respond to high-risk situations that fall outside the capabilities of regular law enforcement officers.

“The militarization of agencies is only a symptom of a much deeper and more troubling problem within Washington – that the federal government no longer trusts the American people,” Stewart said. “When all of us feel that we are no longer seen as citizens but as potential dangerous suspects – a relationship of trust is impossible. I’m working to restore and rebuild trust – beginning with this effort to defund paramilitary capabilities within federal regulatory agencies.”

Specific examples of the militarization of federal regulatory agencies include:Tree of Liberty 03

  • In July 2010, a multi-agency task force, including armed officers from the Food and Drug Agency, raided a Venice, California, organic grocery store suspected of using raw milk, the Los Angeles Times reported.

  • In June 2011, armed federal agents with the Department of Education’s Office of Inspector General broke down the door of a Stockton, California, home at 6 a.m. and handcuffed a man suspected of student aid fraud, the Washington Post reported.

  • In July 2013, an armed multi-agency task force, including officers from the Environmental Protection Agency, the Bureau of Land Management, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the National Park Service, and the Fish and Wildlife Service, raided a small Alaska mining operation suspected of violating the Clean Water Act, the Washington Times reported.

  • On May 7, 2014, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Office of Inspector General released a solicitation for submachine guns.

Stewart said the average Americans is not even aware of the militarization problem.

“Not so much, but I’ll tell you this, it only takes 30 seconds for them to become a fan of this legislation, because all you have to do is get a list of the agencies that have these SWAT teams and show how they can be abused and they say, absolutely, something has to be done to stop this,” Stewart said. “I think we live in a time where most people are highly attuned to that and highly sensitive to the abuses of government power; and we should be, and let’s diffuse some of that power instead of sitting by and letting it increase.”

He said he understand that federal agents must be capable of protecting themselves.security_freedom_tn

“But what we have observed goes far beyond providing necessary protection. When there are genuinely dangerous situations involving federal law, that’s the job of the Department of Justice, not regulatory agencies like the FDA or the Department of Education. Not only is it overkill, but having these highly-armed units within dozens of agencies is duplicative, costly, heavy handed, dangerous and destroys any sense of trust between citizens and the federal government.”

WND’s extensive reporting on such developments in police actions range from plans to put iris scanners on school buses to an elderly vet being arrested for asking public officials to speak louder at a meeting.

There also was a cop going ballistic on a wheelchair-bound man, the feds’ biosurveillance efforts to grab Americans’ medical records and a decision by the Supreme Court that greenlighted the detention of Americans.

Conservatives Are Greatest Threat To Nation, Obama Suggests

White House Correspondent

Imperial President ObamaPolitical conservatives are the greatest threat to the nation, President Barack Obama suggested in a kid-glove interview with the New York Times.

“The president mused, the biggest threat to America — the only force that can really weaken us — is us,” said the interviewer, Thomas Friedman.

“Our politics are dysfunctional… societies don’t work if political factions take maximalist positions,” said Obama, who repeatedly claims to be a moderate stymied by the GOP’s supposed obstructionism and radicalism.

“And the more diverse the country is, the less it can afford to take maximalist positions,” Obama added.

That comment about diversity was likely a warning to conservatives, who are expected by many Democrats to lose power as the nation absorbs more foreigners who do not share conservatives’ small-government ideals.

“Increasingly politicians are rewarded for taking the most extreme maximalist positions… and sooner or later, that catches up with you,” Obama warned.

obama-islamThe GOP was first on the list of causes that Obama blamed for the political divisions that are blocking his agenda, such as increased immigration. However, his list also included a series of subsidiary causes that are actually consequences of underlying ideological conflicts and economic factors.

“While he blamed the rise of the Republican far right for extinguishing so many potential compromises, Obama also acknowledged that gerrymandering, the Balkanization of the news media and uncontrolled money in politics — the guts of our political system today — are sapping our ability to face big challenges together, more than any foreign enemy,” said Friendman, who is an Obama supporter, and a champion of progressive-style expansive government.

kingobamafingerconstitution-300x204Obama and Friedman did not put any blame on the Democratic Party or Obama himself, whose own aggressive use of big-government to promote the progressive goal of social diversity caused voters in 2010 to give the Republicans a majority in the House.

Obama’s complaints come as the GOP and public opinion have blocked his top priority for the second term — increasing immigration. That failure — despite near-universal support from Democrats, media, big business, Wall Street and many billionaires — recently prompted Obama to say he plans to provide an unilateral amnesty to several million illegal immigrants, and award them work-permits. That’s a high-risk threat, because many recent polls shows that the public very strongly opposes illegal immigration, and gives him very low ratings for his immigration policy.

But Obama didn’t suggest he’s responsible for the nation’s political divides.

WE MUST NEVER FORGET

Obama’s claim of moderation is contradicted by much evidence.

For example, in October 2013, during the dispute over the 2014 budget, Obama used one speech to describe Republican legislators in the House as akin to arsonists, kidnappers, deadbeats, butchers, lunatics and extortionists, obsessives, out-of-touch hostage-takers, nuclear-armed bombers, and unserious irresponsible extremists. (RELATED: Obama Offers To Fairly Negotiate With GOP Terrorists)

“I’ve shown myself willing to go more than halfway in these conversations,” he also told the TV cameras during the same speech.

ISIS Buries 500 Yazidis Alive, Orders Others to Convert to Islam or Die

10 Aug 2014

Not every Yazidi resident in northern Iraq escaped before the Islamic State, formerly known as ISIS, captured towns in the region. The terrorist group told the people to convert to Islam or die, killed 500 of them, buried some alive, and took hundreds of girls as slaves.

“We have striking evidence obtained from Yazidis fleeing Sinjar and some who escaped death, and also crime scene images that show indisputably that the gangs of the Islamic State have executed at least 500 Yazidis after seizing Sinjar,”said human rights minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani. “Some of the victims, including women and children were buried alive in scattered mass graves in and around Sinjar.”

“BURIED ALIVE-ALIVE-ALIVE-ALIVE-ALIVE (GOT IT YET?) ALIVE!”

“In some of the images we have obtained there are lines of dead Yazidis who have been shot in the head while the Islamic State fighters cheer and wave their weapons over the corpses,” he said. “This is a vicious atrocity.”

obama-islamThe people who did escape received phone calls on Sunday morning with frightening updates. Matthew Barber, a graduate student from the University of Chicago currently in northern Iraq, said people in Hatimiya, Tel Kucho, and Tel Qasab received the threat.

But there will be no mercy if he chooses not to convert. And for IS, sincere conversion requires more than saying the shahada.

In other towns, ISIS slaughtered Yazidis who did not properly convert to Islam.

ZFlag2Here’s the deal: if you live in the United States, you must be proud to announce your allegiance to this nation. Period. It doesn’t mean one must I LOVE AMERICAagree with everything that goes on within our country. In fact, it doesn’t even mean that one should be happy with the direction in which a country is heading. Lord knows that this country needs a lot of work to turn things around.
 
However, national pride is important. Americans should be proud of being American; Canadians should be proud of being Canadian; the British should be proud of being British.
Increasingly, patriots are being harassed or punished for their willingness to proudly hail their nation. In June, a man was forbidden by his residence complex in Houston from displaying the American flag because it constitutes a “threat to Muslims.”
Reporters who inquired about the unbelievable story were escorted off the premises by an officer, but the residence issued a statement, saying,
“While the Lodge on El Dorado admires our resident’s patriotism, we must enforce our property rules and guidelines. Such guidelines maintain the aesthetics of our apartment community and provide for the safety of all residents. The apartment community already proudly displays our country’s flag in a safe and appropriate manner at the entrances to our community.”
A month later, news broke of a Florida veteran who was being threatened with foreclosure on his home by a Home Owners Association who Pray for America 08demanded a fine of $8,000. The man’s infraction? He put a small flag in his planter outside his window.
Days later, another story broke about another outrage in Florida where a man’s lease was being refused by the apartment complex in which he lived because he hung an American flag inside his apartment.
Recently, conservatives have highlighted the outrage in Texas where a principal was ousted from her job because she had the audacity to request that students speak English in the classroom.
These absurdities have gone on for too long and it is time to highlight these unacceptable bully tactics by shining a light on what America is becoming.
A picture was posted on Youngcons.com where a patriotic American sets the record straight and lets people know that pride in America is an absolute must if one wants to take advantage of the freedoms this country offers.
His message is simple: If this flag offends you, I’ll help you pack.

SOBERING QUESTION: “Is It Time for Another Revolution?”

Written by Larry Usoff on August 11, 2014

Intriguing title, huh?  We are not advocating an armed takeover of the existing government, but rather a good turnout of voters so that the “legal revolution” can take place.  We are, after all, a country of laws, even though the present administration seems to have either forgotten that, and bypasses the legal steps every chance it gets.  The public has to share equally in the blame because they elected, not once, but twice, a man and his administration that seem bound and determined to put this country in the back seats again.

If his mouth is open he must be lyingThere’s a few things that bear repeating and so they will be.  First and foremost, if the president’s lips are moving, he’s lying.  Whatever he says turns out to be the opposite of what he does and it bears out that old axiom, “actions speak louder than words”. Everywhere you look in the world there is conflict, and so what does this president do? In addition to golfing, having photo-ops(which he says he doesn’t like), fund-raising and other non-essential things, he not only cuts the defense budget drastically, he sends pink slips to the field, firing soldiers while they are fighting! What an asinine thing, what an idiotic thing, what a typically stupid thing to do…but then, starting from Day One of his administration they have been doing stupid things.

Perhaps the second-most item that bears repeating, and ties in with the military, is this…we have an all-volunteer armed force.  No one is drafted, they join because they believe in this country and what it stands for, or at least what it used to stand for. So, if a member of the military doesn’t see a future in that career, and is pretty sure that if they are wounded, it’s going to be a difficult task to have medical assistance once they are separated, and might even get fired while they are fighting…do you think they are going to join in the same type of numbers that we once had joining? Technologically, we are a super-power, but China and Russia are no slouches in this area, and they are catching up fast.  On top of that, they are educating their people, whereas the United States is dumbing-down theirs.

Imperial President ObamaWhat good is a sophisticated piece of equipment if the operator doesn’t understand how to use it to its fullest advantage?   Oh sure, we have nuclear weapons that could take out huge sections of the enemies homeland…but they have them too, and they are more than willing to use them, and we’re not.  Once the nuclear offensive is over, and it’s time to occupy the conquered land, is it going to be “them” here, or us “there”?

Non Sibi Sed Patriae.  A Latin phrase which translates to{ “Not Self, But Country”.  Where are the true patriots in America?  Where are the millions that are needed to put country first, above family, above politics, above everything, but the necessary salvation of the greatest country ever to be founded?  They’re out there, but they’re not being heard because government, and that’s both sides of the aisle, is more interested in what the people can do for them, rather than what they can do for the people.  Another thing that bears repeating is that revolution founded this country and, although that was an armed one, we have the ballot to accomplish that, if we will use it and use it honestly.   If your “elected official”, and that includes everyone from the local mayor to the guy/gal in the Oval Office, isn’t kingobamafingerconstitution-300x204doing the job he/she swore to do, get rid of them!  Country first and everything else is second!

Government is like a business, it has been said – and it’s a huge business, but like any business if you have more money going out the door than you’re taking in, that business will soon close its doors.  Is that what you want?  It seems to be what this administration wants because that’s exactly what they are doing.  Our country is over 17 trillion in debt, but we’re sending money to other countries–some of whom don’t even like us!  We also send them things that they really shouldn’t have, and wouldn’t want, but they take it because it’s free!

We are a republic, and we like that form of government, but there are other countries that are monarchies, dictatorships and anarchies, and they like their form of government. Fine, if it works for them, we don’t need to be trying to make the world over in our image.

obama-islamNovember elections are getting closer.  Make up your own mind as to what you will do with your precious vote.   Remember, when you’re casting your vote no one knows what you did–or at least that’s how it’s supposed to be.

Patrick Howley

Political Reporter

obama-border-is-open-378x257Investigative filmmaker James O’Keefe exposes the U.S.-Mexico border’s vulnerability to terrorism in his latest undercover project, obtained exclusively by The Daily Caller.

O’Keefe’s Project Veritas video reminds viewers of recent statements by the president and Obama administration officials that the southern border is secure. O’Keefe then proceeds to Hudspeth County, Texas, to easily cross back and forth cross the Rio Grande wearing the costume of modern history’s most recognizable terrorist.

“I see no border patrol. I see no security,” O’Keefe said in the video before donning a bin Laden mask. “Thousands of people have stood in my footsteps right now. They’ve come from South America, Honduras, Guatemala, and they’ve all crossed the border. And if they can cross, anybody can cross.” (RELATED: The Time Fidel Castro Snuck Into America From Immigration-PiperMexico)

O’Keefe’s work often distinguishes itself for proving taboo but accurate premises – in this case, that Islamic extremists are able to gain entry to the United States from Mexico, where drug cartels are linked to numerous terrorist organizations including Hezbollah and the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS), the strongest al-Qaida-like organization in the heart of the Middle East.

This summer has seen a whirlwind of terrorist activity on the southern border, with dire anecdotes pouring out of local news stations but ignored by the mainstream press. Security contractors found a Muslim prayer rug on the Arizona border, where 300 extremists affiliated with al-Qaida’s Somalia syndicate al-Shabab recently entered the United States unaccounted for. Terrorist watch-list suspects were also detained trying to get into the country through California. Country music legend Charlie Daniels revealed that, “I personally spoke with an Arizona law enforcement officer who had taken four what he called ‘Taliban’ out of the back of an 18 wheeler.”

Relevant on the contemporary merits, O’Keefe’s video also makes an important symbolic point thirteen confusing years after the attacks of 9/11. The terrorists we’re fighting today are more technologically savvy than their idol Osama bin Laden, the self-designed political figure who tried to fire history’s loudest shot. But their motives have not changed. And they have access to the United States.

Inherently, one would be hard pressed to find individuals who do not frequent shopping malls, at least on an occasional basis. How shocking would it be to find out that the Islamist-in-Chief knows that over a hundred are rigged to blow, at the time and place of Islamic jihad’s choosing?

Commentary by Adina Kutnicki

HARPING on the Anti-American-in-Chief’s hyper disdain for U.S. fighting forces has been a labor of (patriotic) love, albeit a depressing task. Nevertheless, said efforts help to illuminate his utter contempt for their heroism, thereby, shining a spotlight on his visceral hatred. It is not for nothing – both the reporting and why the Betrayer-in-Chief behaves as such.

REGARDLESS, once a patriot…and these feelings defy time and place, even though, since 2008, this American-Israeli has been living in Israel. That being said, the ethos behind Barack HUSSEIN Obama’s hatred for America is amply demonstrated at three converging intersections. Their endpoints are leading in several dangerous directions, including America’s malls!

Intersection One:

BY definition, one cannot be a third world devotee, an Islamist at heart, yet, at the same time, be an American patriot. It’s less likely than beautifying a pig, even with the most high-priced lipstick. Indeed, Islam’s best friend!

Intersection Two:

ADDITIONALLY, while empowering the Muslim Brotherhood Mafia he thrusts open America’s borders to illegal aliens, many of whom are MS 13 gangsters in league with Islamic terrorists!  Why?

border

Intersection Three:

ConfusedSO, is it shocking that intersections 1 + 2 are really a catalyst for intersection 3, whereby Barack HUSSEIN Obama demonstrates an utter, palpable hatred for the U.S. military, just like America’s worst enemies?

{Blogger’s Side Note: though the immediate link below is from a Christian “end times” site – and in no way reflects this writer’s Jewish underpinnings – the specific non-theological facts, as described below, are beyond reproach}

Before writing this article, I took a quick trip to the official White House website where I wanted to see what type of statement Obama has issued in the aftermath of the shooting death of a U.S. general by Muslim terrorists in Afghanistan. What I found there was exactly what I have come to expect from Obama. I found nothing. Then I went to the official White House Facebook page, and guess what I found? More nothing. Not even a mention. But there was a story on Obama signing the Cellphone Unlocking Bill.

Obama couldn’t care less.

The U.S. general who was shot and killed in an apparent insider attack in Kabul on Tuesday had served in the American military for more than three decades and was a key player in the current U.S. effort to stand up Afghan security forces.

Army Maj. Gen. Harold J. Greene of Falls Church, Va., was the highest-ranking member of the U.S. military to die in the line of duty since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. He was the deputy commanding general for the Combined Security Transition Command-Afghanistan and was making a routine visit to a training facility when he was fatally shot.

Obama defending muslims TwoEVEN so, why is today’s commentary inferring that Barack HUSSEIN Obama has knowledge about “in place” jihadi strikes on countless malls in America, plus other related Islamic attacks ready “to go”?

WELL, as a matter of record, what can be revealed is: this blogger has confirmed from MULTIPLE counter terror contacts some worrisome tidbits, yes, there are verifiable amounts of missing radioactive components from U.S. academic research labs, as well as from other industry-related sites. This type of info should, as a matter of intelligence course, be placing the public on high alert. Ignorance is NOT bliss. It is often deadly.

ALONG this trajectory, does anyone recall the previous terror alert color codes, at least signaling that Islamic jihad was still a danger to America? Has the pervasive threat just vanished into thin air? Never mind that DHS decided to can the color charts, opting for “elevated and imminent”, dragging other actors along, even though some understood why these changes were really made. For the record,Obama’s DHS has no interest in “simplifying” matters for the public, as they opine. This is a guarantee.

MOST significantly, Barack HUSSEIN Obama has ordered a lock-down on Islamic jihadi info, but not for the good of America! In other words, what has come to these ears very much dovetails with the info revealed by Dr. Jim Garrow, not to an exactitude, but definitely in the main. This info came from SEVERAL discreet directions. Do not inquire who told this and that…regardless, dear readers, listen up, pay rapt attention to the linked youtube!

Jim Garrow joins the JJ McCartney show at the 3 minute mark of the new video below and drops morebombshells about Barack Obama’s connections to Islamic terrorists including the fact that, according to Garrow, Obama KNOWS which US shopping malls are on ‘a list’ to be attacked. Informing us that there are 103 shopping malls on the ‘attack list’, does Barack Obama really know that attacks were planned upon these malls as Garrow suggests? With all of this out in the open now, they wouldn’t possibly still go through with these ‘attacks’, would they?Video gets really hot at the 12 minute mark and onward.

jj

ONE has to understand what viscerally animates the Islamist/Radical-in-Chief, and why he will go to the mat for some subject matters, while others remain behind closed doors.

DEMONSTRABLY, inserting himself into racial matters leads to igniting fires under Blacks. Cause and effect. No one can honestly attest otherwise. On the other side of his anti-American spectrum, his administration is tasked with a “hands-off” policy towards anything remotely related to the domestic threat of Islamic jihad,one which is burgeoning from deep inside his administration, as well as scores of jihadi compounds burrowed in the heart of America. Why the disparity of selective treatment? Indeed.

IN this regard, is it any wonder that he has zero intention of stopping this or that attack; whether at the malls, the borders or in the increasingly thuggish streets of America, mostly due to Black on White (carte blanche) wilding rampages?

Obama to Take Executive Path on Immigration Crisis – Bloomberg

8 Aug 2014

bloomberg

obama-border-is-open-378x257A petition (https://www.numbersusa.com/petition) to President Obama against “executive amnesty” being circulated by the NumbersUSA group has garnered more than 42,500 signatures as of this article’s publication.

NumbersUSA posted the petition to the White House on its website Wednesday and has sent it out to its members.

The missive to President Obama warns against taking unilateral action to provide “amnesty” to 5-6 million undocumented immigrants.

The Washington Post is reporting that your Administration is preparing to move forward with an executive action that would protect 5-6 million illegal aliens from deportation and grant them work permits,” the petition reads. “But it was your similar action for childhood arrivals that caused the ongoing border crisis, and an expanded action would make the situation worse. I urge you stop Immigration-Piperprotecting illegal aliens and start protecting American workers.”

The petition comes as President Obama is expected to take executive action on immigration reform at the end of the summer. Reports have indicated that the action could end up providing amnesty to millions of undocumented immigrants — an action which Republican leaders have warned the administration against taking.

According to NumbersUSA and many Republican lawmakers, President Obama’s Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program, which shields certain illegal immigrants who came to the United States as children from deportation, has helped to drive a massive influx of illegal immigrant children to the United States from Central America.

“Since 2011, your actions on immigration have repeatedly sent signals around the world that illegal immigration will be tolerated (even rewarded) in the United States. These policies have contributed to the surge in illegal immigration at the border today,” the petition reads, going on to  praise House Republicans for sending a “strong message” against illegal immigration. 

“The House vote showed that the Representatives of the American people may be ready to be the champions of the American workers who stand to lose the most if you follow through with your promise,” the petition concludes. “I urge you to side with American workers and not illegal aliens!”

In its most recent newsletter dispatched Friday, NumbersUSA featured the petition along with an urging from immigration hawk Alabama Republican Sen. Jeff Sessions for people to “Call your Senator and ask them where they stand” on Obama’s executive amnesty.

Congressman wants to ban sale of enhanced body armor to civilians

Rep. Mike Honda, (D-CA), has submitted a bill to the U.S. House that would prohibit the sale, use or possession of what he terms military-grade body armor.

Rep. Mike Honda, (D-CA), wants to ban the sale of certain kinds of body armor to civilians. (Photo: LA Times

Honda reasons that this measure would aid law enforcement in taking out an active shooter, since the active shooter wouldn’t be able to obtain body armor.

“There is no reason this type of armor, which is designed for warfare, should be available in our communities except for those who need it, like law enforcement,” Honda said in a statement last week. “There’s nothing more dangerous than what a well-armored, unstoppable active shooter can do. This bill is common-sense and long overdue.”

Honda’s bill, H.R. 5344, The Responsible Body Armor Possession Act, would place a ban on what it terms ‘enhanced body armor.’ This type of armor as referenced in the bill’s language would include any wearable armor including helmets or shields that offer a ballistic protection of Type III or above as determined using National Institute of Justice Standard–0101.06. The only exceptions to the prohibition would be for law enforcement, military and government agencies.

Type III and higher body armor is commonly available both new and used Obey MAthroughout the country. Recently companies such as Bullet Blocker have even made efforts to produce school safety equipment such as bullet proof backpacks, whiteboards and children’s-sized nylon jackets up to NIJ Type III ratings aimed to protect youngsters from active shooters.

Honda advised in a press conference Wednesday that the reason for the bill was a shooting on July 22 in Riverside County, where a man wearing body armor and armed with an assault rifle shot and killed two sheriff’s deputies and wounded another.

However, this statement is not entirely correct as the shooting in question resulted in the deaths of two civilians, not law enforcement officers, and the injury of a deputy by fragments. Reports of the now-dead suspected shooter wearing body armor are likewise anecdotal and not reflected in the released information by the Riverside County Sheriff.

National gun control groups are coming out to support Honda’s initiative.

In a statement by the Violence Policy Center posted Wednesday, the group applauded the lawmaker’s measure, saying, “The gun industry has increasingly featured body armor in firearm company marketing materials, which display men wearing body armor and helmets while carrying military-style assault rifles.”camo

In the VPC’s statement, the group likewise list Adam Lanza and John Holmes, the mass killers linked to the shootings in Newtown and Aurora respectively as being protected during their sprees by body armor. However, like Honda’s statement, this one is flawed as well.

While in both cases the alleged shooters were described by media as being armored, Lanza was later confirmed to be wearing a ‘fishing vest‘  while Holmes was equipped with a tactical load bearing vest, neither of which offered ballistic protection.

Even if Honda’s bill does not make it into law, it is already against the law for criminals to add body armor to their toolkit. Since 2002, it has been illegal under federal law for convicted felons to possess body armor of any sort. This has been prosecuted in U.S. courts even in states that do not criminalize the possession of body armor.

Honda’s bill is currently referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary and has three co-sponsors.

The Obama Doctrine: Pretend to Give a Damn–Until You Don’t Have To


Complete Message

http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Peace/2014/08/08/The-Obama-Doctrine-Pretend-to-Give-a-Damn

8 Aug 2014

If his mouth is open he must be lyingFor years, commentators have attempted to peg down just what the Obama Doctrine is. His allies have labeled the Obama Doctrine a form of realism about the limits of American power. His critics have labeled the Obama Doctrine “leading from behind.”  

In 2009, President Obama came up with his own definition of an Obama Doctrine: “we’re only one nation… the problems that we confront, whether it’s drug cartels, climate change, terrorism, you name it, can’t be solved just by one country.” But Obama has also, at certain points, claimed to champion unilateralism in the service of human rights and internationalism in the service of diplomacy. 

The Obama Doctrine has been difficult to pin down because there does not seem to be a common thread uniting his disparate policies – muscular interventionism in Libya, pushy paternalism with regard to Israel, eager abdication with regard to Syria and Ukraine.

But with Obama’s latest decision to launch airstrikes against the Islamic State in the Levant (ISIL or ISIS), the Obama Doctrine has now come into focus: pretend to give a damn about suffering of innocents when it hits the headlines, ignore it the rest of the time.

Because Obama doesn’t truly care. At all. He is a master emotional manipulator, capable ofBreak-Glass-600-wLogo achieving effective posturing when it comes to the suffering of innocents. That’s why the media constantly swoon at his “tone” and his “attitude” during his press conferences. They repeatedly praise his “anger” or his “determination.” But they rarely ask just what he’s doing to fight evil.

Any deployment of power will be short-term and ineffective. Obama will do all he can for innocents up until the moment when he doesn’t have to do so. Then he’ll leave them to die.

That was certainly the case in Egypt, where Obama expressed extraordinary optimism about the ouster of Hosni Mubarak, then promptly allowed the Muslim Brotherhood to take over. He has since spent efforts attempting to undercut the Egyptian military, which launched a popularly-supported coup against Mohamed Morsi.

It has been the case in Iran, where Obama belatedly denounced the treatment of democracy protesters, then did nothing as they were shot in the streets.

It has been the case in Ukraine, where Vladimir Putin has annexed Crimea and invaded eastern Ukraine. Obama has expressed outrage; Putin has scoffed, and his rebel forces have shot down a passenger airliner, to approximately zero effective action from the West.

It has been the case in Nigeria, where after expressing upset over Boko Haram’s kidnapping of innocent girls and ensuring that the State Department endorse the “power of hashtag,” the Obama administration has done precisely nothing.

Imperial President ObamaIt has been the case in Syria, where Obama assured the world that should dictator Bashar Assad cross a red line with use of weapons of mass destruction, there would be consequences. There were none. Assad, who Obama said should go, just signed onto another seven-year term. In sum total, the number of dead in Syria now approaches 200,000.

Now, Obama has done the same in Iraq. He will drop a few bombs. He will bluster. Then the world’s attention will turn to some other crisis, and Obama will blithely move on, leaving erstwhile allies to die.

This is no groundbreaking revelation. President Obama has always cared far more about appearances than realities. He bobs like a cork on the waves of crisis, skipping to and fro, always carefully attuning his public emotions to achieve the most sympathetic effect. If brief shows of force are necessary, Obama is unafraid to engage in them. But he is unwilling to make any commitment to taking the lasting action that actually effects change. To do that, he would have to lead rather than follow.

He would have to care.

Barack Obama is an emotional pro and a foreign policy dilettante. And that is an extraordinarily dangerous combination. Popularity is the Obama Doctrine. Ironically, the end result is massive unpopularity – it turns out that world events require prolonged and sustained action rather than posturing. More importantly, the end result is massive casualties.

John Kerry Facing the Crisis in Iraq: A Must-See

Jkerry_57positionsohn “Lurch” Kerry, our Secretary of State, had a tough weekend as our Chief Diplomat.  Off the top of our head, there was the religious cleansing going on in Iraq with ISIS butchering both Christians and Kurds.  There was Gaza, where the Israelis were fighting to defend their citizens from near constant terrorist attacks from Hamas rockets and their terror tunnel network.  Then there is Syria, where a couple of thousand Arabs were butchered last week, but they were butchered by other Arabs so it’s not newsworthy.  Kinda like a bunch of murders in Chicago on any given weekend.

We’re sure there was lots more in the world of diplomatic problems to be solved, like Ukraine and the Russian dudes which we plum clean forgot in the first paragraph.  Obviously, being the Chief Diplomat is a very tough job.

To prove he’s the right man for the job, the press made sure that Secretary Kerry’s agenda was kept under wraps, lest whoever the “bad guys of the moment” are find out what he’s up to and launch a diplomatic counter offensive.  We’ll note at this juncture that we have a really hard time – and to be fair it’s late in the day and we’re tired – imagining anything more offensive than US foreign policy.

Anyway, a Curmudgeon approved super-secret photographer was on the job at Kerry’s summertime headquarters in Nantucket, MA.  Here’s a great shot of the Secretary defending US interests worldwide.

Yes gentle readers, that really is a pink girls bike.  In tow is his white dog, likely some sort of French breed, named “Surrender.”  Yes Sir.  That’s our John Kerry, reporting for duty.  The same guy who was so anxious to help these fellows.

Really makes you proud of your country, doesn’t it.  We’re sure that once again, Michelle has found something for which to be proud right here in her Amerika.

 

 

Obama, John Kerry & Russell Brand: 3 Burned-Out Clowns

With the Middle East conflict raging and the world on fire, the clowns –  Barack Obama, John Kerry and Russell Brand – offered more liberal brilliance. With that, here is the news of the week.

  • President Obama called Hamas “irresponsible.” He also thinks Pol Pot was a knucklehead and that Bashar Assad’s behavior is disappointing. Meanwhile, Vladimir Putin just took a dog, named it Obama, castrated it, and shot it in the middle of the street. Obama expressed concern.

  • Nancy Pelosi called Hamas a humanitarian organization. Like Israel, the Pelosiraptor’s brain is not occupied territory.

  • After her meltdown on the House floor, this Edith Bunker wannabe is being encouraged by Republicans and her fellow Democrats to “stifle herself.”

  • Fred Thompson is set to visit the Gaza Strip. Once Palestinians rebuild their homes, they are eligible for reverse mortgages.

  • The Palestinians are right about one thing. Confining 1.8 million people into a small area like animals is cruel. Enough about New York City.

  • Hamas wasted millions of dollars rather than spend it to help their own constituents. Hamas leaders are expected to run for Mayor of Chicago.

  • Obama called the Gaza population “dense.” They certainly are. Taken out of context it is still true. Flash back to “History of the World, Part I.” When told “the peasants are revolting,” the French King replied, “they certainly are.”

  • The leftist media is analyzing whether pictures of dead children are Gazan or Syrian so they will know when to care and what to report.

  • If Barack Obama and John Kerry had a child, it would be Russell Brand. 

  • Hamas has said there will be no ceasefire until all their demands are met. Like many college professors, Hamas does not live in the real world. The only people dumber than the Palestinians at this point are the State Department employees who still think they can be reasoned with.

  • A couple years ago the Seahawks beat the Cardinals 58-0. The United Nations accused the Seahawks of “disproportionate” force, claiming the Seahawks could have stopped at 10-0. The UN was going to bring charges of human rights abuses against Seattle Seahawks Coach Pete Carroll. Once it was determined that Carroll is not Jewish, the matter was dropped and the 58-0 bombing was considered part of doing battle. The Arizona Cardinals are still rebuilding from the damage, but the Seahawks should not apologize for having a superior fighting force deployed legally in a battle. Palestinian defenders had no response.

  • Liberal Hollywood Jews can be counted on to stand up when it does not matter. They condemn Penelope Cruz for bashing Israel while getting ready to back Hillary Clinton in 2016. Hillary’s hobbies include kissing Suha Arafat after she accused Jews of poisoning Palestinian children.

  • Jews brought the world Albert Einstein, Charles Krauthammer, Elie Wiesel. Palestinians brought…umm, well (crickets chirping).

  • Of course Jews give more to Earth than Palestinians. Jews had a multi-thousand year head start.

  • Right now some “dead” Palestinian children, as soon as the cameras leave, get up, wipe the ketchup off them, and walk away laughing. Their “parents” then return them to the prop department.

  • Hamas said they will not lay down their arms until all their demands are met. They are almost as belligerent as Obama.

  • A speech by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is like an Obama or Kerry speech, except it matters.

  • President Obama is repeatedly late to his press conferences due to clothing delays. It takes time to decide which empty suit to wear. Only a true gasbag would keep the world waiting when he and they know he has nothing to say.

  • Obama is the only man people wish would hurry up and start talking and then immediately wish he stop talking.

  • Obama’s media trick is to give long rambling answers to questions to take as few questions as possible. To paraphrase Winston Churchill, never before in history has one man said so much, and yet said so little.

  • Christians fleeing Iraq are ineligible for asylum in the United States until Obama can ensure they vote Democrat.

  • From Rwanda to the Kurds, liberals talk human rights & social justice but let people die. Climate change is a bigger priority.

  • 300 Rabbis begged Obama to release Alan Gross, an American falsely imprisoned in Cuba. Obama has a pen and a phone, and he may use them to let 300 Rabbis know that he is “concerned.” If Alan Gross was a Nigerian girl, Obama at least would offer a hashtag. For an elderly Jewish guy, draw your own conclusions. Liberal Jews voted for him. Deep down they know other nations would never imprison Americans with a Republican in the White House. They keep telling themselves that Obama cares if they live or die. Alan Gross has his answer.

  • Smugness and incompetence are race neutral. Barack Obama is a smug, condescending pompous @ss pointy headed academic who happens to be partially black and terrible at his job. John Kerry is a smug, condescending pompous @ss pointy headed academic who happens to be lily white and terrible at his job. America has finally reached racial equality for the least qualified among us.

  • Obama’s TSA is offering up to $15,000 for ideas on speeding up airport lines. The best idea remains firing Obama’s TSA.

  • Since Guantanamo Bay is closed, all Ebola carriers should be sent to a secure area: Martha’s Vineyard.

  • How many illegal immigrants are being fed and sheltered at the White House. They can be housed in George Clooney’s White House room.

  • After insisting Americans conduct themselves with humility, Obama chastised the media for not praising him more. Obama considered hiring Russell Brand as his drug czar.

  • August 4th was Day 1 of Year 53 of Barack Obama’s endless lifelong celebration of his very being.

  • While it is no longer Obama’s birthday, fear not. He assured us he will act like it is today through eternity.

Krauthammer on Europe – Raw, Naked Anti-Semitism [Video]

Charles appeared on The O’Reilly Factor and responded to a question about Hamas that led him to denounce anti-Semitism in Europe.  And he did it in very harsh – but realistic – terms.charles

Hamas Point of ViewWe agree with his summation of Europe.  The Europeans have not, nor will they ever, get beyond Hitler and his Final Solution.  Anti-Semitism runs riot in Europe, although the Danes are planning a rally that should be interesting, and we’re pretty sure that if they could figure out a way to keep it secret, the EU – not just Germany – would likely reopen Auschwitz and the camps.

We also disagree with his take about American anti-Semitism.  We feel that it’s cut from the same cloth.  On college campuses here, there is the divestiture movement with students and faculty demanding that endowments divest any investment that supports Israel in any way.  And they do it in Hitleresque terms.  Jewish college students don’t feel safe on liberal campuses in liberal states.

Here in the US, the ovens wouldn’t be set up in Kansas or Texas, they’d be running overtime in New York and California.

Why Does Obama Hate IsraelAs a matter of fact, here’s a cartoon (found by our Research Department – Mrs Curmudgeon) that perfectly expresses our feeling about anti-Semitism in the US.
