OBAMA’S OPEN MIC – THE GAFFE OF GAFFES

By on May 14, 2012 in General, Politics & Government

There are gaffes, and then there are gaffes.

Every president has made them. But none so consequential to the future of Americans as we have learned from one recent Obama blunder.

The president has joked and made light of his open mike comments to Sergey Medvedev , the president of Russia, where he leaned over and quietly stated: “This is my last election. After the election, I will have more flexibility.”

Obama apologists will tell us that we’re making a big deal out of nothing. That’s incorrect. This is a REALLY big deal, for a number of reasons. Let’s analyze the entire event in context.

Obama was in South Korea taking part in a global nuclear summit with other world leaders. One might ask, is this the only opportunity that Obama had to talk to the Russian leader? Did they not have time for discussions where he could have imparted these comments in private? Or was the photo op media event the only time he had with Medvedev? If so, what was he doing there besides having his pictures taken?

Obama has been in the national and international limelight on a daily basis for the last four years. One would …

MOSAIC OBAMA: FARRAKHAN, WRIGHT

By on April 12, 2012 in General

Some folks will say it doesn’t mean anything. But it does. It’s all part of the bits and pieces that comprise the Obama mosaic.

Louis Farrakhan, the head of the Nation of Islam since 1977, is among the most despicable people in the United States. (my humble opinion) A racist, a Jew-basher, a hater of America, this man has been unapologetic in spewing hatred among his followers and friends for 35 years, from which a large and significant cadre of like-minded haters have been spawned.

Farrakhan was honored in Libya by racist, Jew-hating, America-hating Moammar Ghadaffi in 1996 by receiving his International Prize for Human Rights award, worth $250,000. That put him in such noble company as Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez. The year before, Ghadaffi awarded Farrakhan a $5 million interest-free loan.

Here are a sampling of quotes by Farrakhan:

* “The Jews don’t like Farrakhan, so they call me Hitler. Well, that’s a good name. Hitler was a very great man.”
* “They call them terrorists, I call them freedom fighters.”
* “Many of the Jews who owned the homes, the apartments in the black community, we considered them bloodsuckers because they took from our community and built …

CORRUPT POLITICIANS – HO HUM

By on March 21, 2012 in General, Politics & Government

It never ceases to amaze me how some voters will completely disregard the corruption that prevails in a politician’s background, as if bribes and pay-offs don’t matter so long as they get their man in office. Derrick Smith of Chicago (no surprise) was caught by the feds accepting a $7000 bribe, charged with the crime, but still ran in the primary election for state congress and garnered 76 percent of the vote. The voters knew of his corruption, but it mattered not.

Is your head shaking?

When politicians are caught, it’s rarely a first-time offense, a sure sign he/she has been on the take for quite a while. If a politician will take a bribe from one person, they’ll take bribes from anyone so long as they think they’re safe.  

Yet the voters don’t care. 

Shades of Marion Barry who was caught possessing and using cocaine, sent to jail, and then won re-election to the Washington D.C. council anyway, corruption and criminal behavior be damned. Some people do not care about corruption.

Shades of Rep. William Jefferson from Louisiana in 2006 who was caught with $90 thousand bribe money in his refrigerator. He still ran for congress again, and received …

NULLIFYING YOUR VOTE

By on March 7, 2012 in General

Prepare to be angry.

You don’t think an election can be stolen? Check out this covert video at a voter registration office in Minnesota:

Click here: Registering Tim Tebow and Tom Brady to Vote in Minnesota – YouTube

That’s right. A third party can register someone else to vote in Minnesota. No I.D. required. ACORN would have a registration orgy. Imagine all the phony names, dead people, illegal aliens, felons, and non-citizens who will be casting votes for their man next November.

South Carolina has been trying to pass a photo I.D. Law but met staunch resistence by none other than the Attorney General, Eric Holder, who has blocked the law on the grounds that (what else?) it fosters “racial profiling.” If he was honest, Eric Holder would own up to being Obama’s blocking tackle, running interference to make sure his boss gets all the votes possible for re-election, be they legal or illegal. Now, that’s a lawman for you.

Minnesota’s not alone. California, Nevada, Oregon and New Mexico and 16 other states require no I.D. for voters, including Illinois, of course. Is that not mind boggling? Imagine all the illegal votes that will neutralize legal votes.

In California, a …

ANOTHER SIDE OF WHITNEY HOUSTON

By on February 19, 2012 in Criminal Justice, General, Social Issues

     Pardon my insensitivity.

     Whitney Houston was a great singing talent, indeed. That was a gift of nature.

     She was also a criminal. There are over a million people in our jail and prisons today, and another two million on probation for doing exactly what she did for the better part of fifteen years; buying, possessing and using illegal drugs. But she got away with it and continued reap admiration long the way.

     The sports and entertainment world, and the media in general, should stop lionizing dead idols who spent a good part of their lives using recreational (and illegal) drugs. The subliminal messages they send to impressionable young people by the millions is not only powerful, it is  infinitely damaging, and with long term consequences.

     While we know that hundreds of idols are unapologetic users of illegal marijuana, thousands more have made no secret of using heroin, cocaine and meth for recreation, which is not only illegal, they are highly addictive and destructive. When they die, mass funerals are held, long-winded eulogies of praise are heard and not a word is spoken about the horrid addiction they suffered by making stupid choices, choices that no …

AYAAN HIRSI ALI: ISLAM VERSUS FREE EXPRESSION

By on February 2, 2012 in General, Politics & Government, Radical Islam

Ayaan Hirsi Ali was born in Somalia, raised a Muslim and spent her childhood in Africa and Saudi Arabia.  In 1992, she went to the Netherlands as a refugee to escape a forced marriage to a cousin she never met.  She eventually became educated and an outspoken voice on the international stage against the horrors of radical Islam. She denounced Islam after the 9/11 attacks and became an atheist. Her first book, “Infidel” was a best seller in Europe and around the world, and she was named as one of Time Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People of 2005. She has won many other awards too numerous for this blog.

I’ve written often about the mask of radical Islam and the sanitized approach to the Islamic menace that some deceivers will use to sway the most naive of people into believing there is no threat to the free world from Islam. I wrote a book in 2006, “Militant Islam In America” and have read over thirty books on the subject, many written by Muslims and apostates who have lived the life under Islam and escaped.  The threat not only exists, it is infecting the western world as we live and breathe. Many, …

OBAMA BOWS TO SAUDIS AGAIN

By on January 22, 2012 in General, Politics & Government

 Remember this?

     The president has done it again, only this time in the form of quid pro quo.

     If anyone doesn’t get it, here’s what must be going on behind the scenes. This president is smart enough to know what people want to hear. Despite all the lip service which draws cheers from the minions at campaign speeches, this president has no intention on breaking partnerships with oil cartels that hold our nation economically hostage. When opportunities do arise to make a significant move in that direction, nothing happens.

     The Saudis are jumping with joy, as is Hugo Chavez, for they represent almost one-fourth of the foreign oil imports consumed by America.

    By nixing the Keystone Pipeline project, President Barack Obama took three steps backwards in the plight toward energy independence and job creation. Words mean nothing. Actions mean everything.

     Every president since Nixon has sworn to do everything possible to wean the United States from dependency on foreign oil. For every president, including this one, it has been empty campaign rhetoric and no substance.

     When Carter took office in 1977, he created the Department of Energy for this very purpose. Instead of diminishing foreign oil imports, …
