The Eternal Flame of Muslim Outrage

Shhhhhhh, we're told. Don't protest the Ground Zero mosque. Don't burn a Koran. It'll imperil the troops. It'll inflame tensions. The "Muslim world" will "explode" if it does not get its way, warns sharia-peddling imam Feisal Abdul Rauf. Pardon my national security-threatening impudence, but when is the "Muslim world" not ready to "explode"? At the risk of provoking the ever-volatile Religion of Perpetual Outrage, let us count the little-noticed and forgotten ways. Just a few months ago in Kashmir, faithful Muslims rioted over what they thought was a mosque depicted on underwear sold by street vendors. The mob shut down ...

545 PEOPLE By Charlie Reese Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them. Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits,WHY do we have deficits? Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes? You and I don't propose a federal budget. The president does. You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does. You and I don't write the tax code, Congress does. You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does. You and I don't control monetary ...
USA Today Poll Regarding the 2nd Amendment

A friend sent me the following email about a poll regarding gun rights and the second amendment. Gun poll TAKES 2 SECONDS They are hoping you won't remember when you vote in November. Obama's new idiot Attorney General, Eric Holder , has already said this is one of his major issues. He does not believe the 2nd Amendment gives individuals the right to bear arms. This takes literally 2 clicks to complete. Please vote on this gun issue question with USA Today. It will only take a few seconds of your time. Then pass the link on to all the pro gun folks you know. Hopefully these results will be published later this month. This upcoming year will become critical for gun owners with ...

Who Should Go to Jail: Paris Hilton or BP Execs? Inquiring Minds Want to Know. 7Share Submitted by BuzzFlash on Sat, 09/04/2010 - 1:59pm. * Guest Commentary JACQUELINE MARCUS FOR BUZZFLASH Another oil and gas rig in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Louisiana has exploded. We don’t know the details on why it exploded nor do we know for certain if oil is leaking. What we do know is that oil drilling is literally killing our marine life, seafood, beaches, water, and the very air we breathe. It is a poisonous threat to our state of well being. There is no way Big Oil can “make it right.” BP has never given a damn about safety. It’s all about profits and not ...

Beer-swilling British women are branded the 'ugliest in the world' By Daily Mail Reporter Last updated at 2:41 AM on 5th September 2010 * Comments (98) * Add to My Stories Drunk girls lying on floor British women are considered unladylike and generally foul (posed by models) Beer guzzling, belching, hideous dress sense - and that's some of the nicer things the rest of the world said about British women. The nation's females were lambasted when asked which country had the ugliest women in an international poll. Votes poured in, with people from around the globe eager to point out how overweight, unladylike, and generally foul British women are. Major complaints ...
Men still matter

Men still matter It's been a mean summer for men. The recent economic downturn, dubbed a "he-cession" because three-fourths of the 8 million jobs lost belonged to men, has shown few signs of reversal. Enrollment patterns for the coming fall look poised to continue the decade-long trend of women outpacing men in the quest for college degrees. The Atlantic, commenting on such shifts, recently featured a cover story on "The End of Men" arguing that "our modern, postindustrial society is simply better suited to women." Echoing the men-are-obsolete theme was a study published in June in Pediatrics, which claimed that teenagers raised by lesbian couples are ...

I'm a no-planer now. It's easy and it's simple. You can do it too. Just look at the evidence. Do you have any idea what this does to an ego like mine? It's scary. Think about it.... No planes hit any of the WTC. Either the videos were faked or (shudder) they're holograms. WTF does that mean then? What did hit them then? If anything? So I have once again successfully distanced myself from some of my associates and society as a whole. Great. Just what I needed. /s It's lonely here. People look at you like, "Okey-dokey, dude" Trust me, don't just lay that on someone without warming them up somehow first. Introduce yourself or something. On the ...
Who's Really Running This Show (subtle hint: it ain't the president)

Have you ever had the impression that, in politics, what you see isn’t really what you get? Ever get the feeling that whoever the current occupant of the White House is, no matter which party he’s from, he’s little more than a talking head? He may not have an original thought of his own but there is someone behind the scenes passing him an agenda they want enacted and telling him “Okay Dim Bulb, this is what we want done. Get it done for us and you’ll be okay. Mess up and you’re in big trouble.” All you have to do is look at our last two or three presidents and you have to realize this scenario is more and more a strong possibility. Ever look at the ...
Glenn Beck 8/28 Rally --the Death Rattle of Mainstream Conservatism
Post Date: 2010-09-01 11:58:52 by christine

Glenn Beck’s big rally at the Lincoln Memorial a couple days ago is the talk of the news media and the internet. Liberals are denouncing it, conservatives are walking on air, while tens of millions of people are completely mystified. And with good reason – if Seinfeld was a show about nothing, this massive gathering was a rally about nothing. And while it may have looked impressive, in reality it shows just how impotent and adrift the mainstream conservative movement has become. Nobody is really sure what it was even about. Beck, who is only famous because he has spent hours a day for the last decade ranting about politics, says it had nothing to do with politics, even though ...

If I own plots on either side of the mosque site and I want to open a pair of barbecue restaurants, specializing in pork ribs on either side, do you think the city will approve the zoning? Do you think that Utah Senators will weigh in on my right to use my private property as I please for lawful business? Or do you think that the pork-themed restaurants will be considered a "provocation" and the permits will be denied?

Bush’s former ambassador to the UN, John Bolton, on how Obama screwed up his predecessor’s handiwork in Iraq (Wisdom from the Likud Party Mouthpiece)

Bush’s former ambassador to the UN, John Bolton, on how Obama screwed up his predecessor’s handiwork in Iraq, the coming regional arms conflict—and what the president should say in his speech tonight about his decision to withdraw American troops. President Obama has an opportunity in Tuesday’s Oval Office address on Iraq to show that he has finally learned something about American security in the hard world of international geostrategy. Of course, if he did, it would mean abandoning much of what he advocated during his election campaign, reversing many of his most-prized policies since his inauguration, disappointing his leftist political base, and causing acute ...

Mexico: safer than Canada Aug 27th 2010, 14:36 by T.W. | MEXICO CITY OK, so the headline is a bit of a fib. But a report on Mexico’s security situation has painted a more detailed picture than the one we hear about in the news most of the time. When I told friends I was moving to Mexico City, some asked if I would be provided with a bodyguard (no). Business travellers are thinking twice about coming, according to chambers of commerce here. But a detailed breakdown of violence released this week shows that, if you pick your state, you’re as safe—or safer—than in any other North American country. Mexico’s overall homicide rate is 14 per 100,000 inhabitants: ...

Having shed much of his dignity, core convictions and reputation for straight talk, Senator John McCain won his primary on Tuesday against the flat-earth wing of his party. Now McCain can go search for his lost character, which was last on display late in his 2008 campaign for president. Remember the moment: a woman with matted hair and a shaky voice rose to express her doubts about Barack Obama. “I have read about him,” she said, “and he’s not — he’s an Arab.” McCain was quick to knock down the lie. “No, ma’am,” he said, “he’s a decent family man, a citizen.” That ill-informed woman — her head stuffed with ...

ANOTHER weekend, another grass-roots demonstration starring Real Americans who are mad as hell and want to take back their country from you-know-who. Last Sunday the site was Lower Manhattan, where they jeered the “ground zero mosque.” This weekend, the scene shifted to Washington, where the avatars of oppressed white Tea Party America, Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin, were slated to “reclaim the civil rights movement” (Beck’s words) on the same spot where the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. had his dream exactly 47 years earlier. Vive la révolution! There’s just one element missing from these snapshots of America’s ostensibly spontaneous and leaderless ...
Are Americans Really Different?
Post Date: 2010-08-27 10:51:14 by christine

Americans have historically prided themselves in being different from all other nations of the earth. Stemming from our independent lives and station from Great Britain--even while being politically subject to it--the foundation of America rested upon the ideal of independence, individualism, self-determination and freedom. A massive and motivating Secession Movement from Great Britain took only a few years to brew throughout the colonies, given only minor usurpations from their mother country, comparably speaking. The colonies’ sovereignty was deemed established not upon the winning of the war but upon their unilateral declaration: “these united Colonies ARE, and of Right ought ...
We Need A Revolution, Not A Movement [Full Thread]

The elections of 2008 (and the early elections of 2010) produced two significant phenomena: the "Ron Paul Revolution," and the "Tea Party Movement." And, mark it down: both of them will have profound effects upon the upcoming November elections--and upon the 2012 elections as well. Call them what you want, however, America doesn't need another movement; it needs a genuine revolution. The Tea Party movement, while still a force with which to be contended, has already been diluted and compromised. The primary elections plainly reveal the reality of this fact. The high spots so far are the defeats of Arlen Specter in Pennsylvania and Bob Bennett in Utah. The low spots ...

A WANING FAITH IN GOVERNMENT
Post Date: 2010-08-25 13:21:44 by DeaconBenjamin

When people lose faith in any religion, they cease attending services. Maybe they transfer their membership. American pastors learned this two centuries ago. When Massachusetts abolished tax support for Congregational churches in 1833, that ended the last trace of state compulsion in church circles. But religion is not limited to churches. It extends to the state. The state is perfectly happy to use tax revenues to promote this religion, just as it was in ancient Rome. When faith wanes in political religion, members of the congregation start looking for alternative places of worship. They want their tithes and offerings to be voluntary. The state denies this way of escape. Voters see no ...
