White House takes muslim position on capital...

White House Takes Muslim Position On Capital Of Israel

While Mitt Romney is journeying to Israel and Barack Obama is signing the U.S.-Israel Enhanced Security Cooperation Act on the eve of that departure, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney was unable or unwilling to state the capital of Israel.
He was asked straightforwardly by a reporter “What city does this Administration consider to be the capital of Israel? Jerusalem or Tel Aviv?”
While Carney claimed he had not had that question in a long time, he would not say. He simply said “Our position hasn’t changed. You know our position."
When Lester Kinsolving of WND chimed up and said that the female reporter didn’t know and that was the reason for asking Carney continued his tap dance.
To make it even more simply for Carney, in case he was actually having a mental block, which is possible with all the lies he has to keep up with, they offered him the choice of Tel Aviv or Jerusalem. He chose neither, falling back on “You know the answer to that.”
Well the U.S. embassy is in Tel Aviv. The administration has been asked why it won’t move it to the capital and all we get is, “Blah, blah, blah.” While there is not doubt that Barack Obama is a Marxist, there can be no doubt that the man was raised a Muslim and has been sympathetic to Islam and the Muslim Brotherhood.
The fact that the administration parrots the Muslim world in not recognizing what is so obvious to everyone else should be overwhelming evidence that we have a Muslim in the White House. Anyone knows that the capital of a nation, city, or state is not something up for debate. It is a fact. The White House is in denial and will not come out with a straightforward answer because it has a Muslim mentality. There isn’t a position to be taken. All it requires is one word: Jerusalem.

Surprise! $5 Billion more in taxes

“According to the updated estimates, the amount of deficit reduction from penalty payments and other effects on tax revenues under the ACA will be $5 billion more than previously estimated,” the CBO reported. “That change primarily effects a $4 billion increase in collections from such payments by employers, a $1 billion increase in such payments by individuals, and an increase of less than $500 million in tax revenues stemming from a small reduction in employment-based coverage, which will lead to a larger share of total compensation taking the form of taxable wages and salaries and a smaller share taking the form of nontaxable health benefits.”

The short of this is that the CBO revised the ObamaTax to increase by $4 billion in taxes for businesses, while also moving the figures upward to $1-$1.5 billion in taxes for individual workers. We all are getting the shaft on this one.

So remember when Nancy Pelosi said that we needed to pass the bill to find out what was in it? Well, we still haven’t found out what kind of mess is in this monstrosity. We are still learning what is in it and sadly we may be learning what all is in this thing for years to come. One thing we do know in all of this is that the American people are being taxed to death by the the ironically named “Affordable” Care Act.

It's starting: Nearly 1 in 10 employers to drop ...

... health care

About one in 10 employers plan to drop health coverage when key provisions of the new health care law kick in less than two years from now, according to a survey to be released Tuesday by the consulting company Deloitte.

Nine percent of companies said they expect to stop offering coverage to their workers in the next one to three years, the Wall Street Journal reported. Around 81 percent said they would continue providing benefits and 10 percent said they weren’t sure.

The companies, though, said a lot will depend on how future provisions of the law unfold, since most of the key parts are scheduled to take effect in 2014. One in three respondents said they could stop offering coverage if the law requires them to provide more generous benefits than they do now, if a tax on high-cost plans takes effect in 2018 as scheduled or if they decide it would be cheaper for them to pay the penalty for not providing insurance.

Supporting Romney makes you a racist

This nonsense gets so old. If you're not for Obama, you're a racist. If you support Romney, or anyone else opposing Obama, you're racist.

If you prefer vanilla ice cream over chocolate you're a racist.

Bang Head

What's truly pathetic is that a lot of the people syaing this have no other reason to vote for Obama other than his race - so who is really the racists here? They also conveniently forget Obama is only half-black.

*************************

Obama Spokeswoman Race Baits Romney Supportershttp://freedomoutpost.com/2012/07/obama-spokeswoman-race-baits-romney-supporters/

Portsmouth Democrat State Senator Louise Lucas, a member of Barack Obama’s official “Truth (or more appropriately ‘Lies’) Team” in Virginia, appeared on the John Fredericks Morning Show. She accused Mitt Romney of engaging in racial tactics against Barack Obama and yet though she blathered about how she views things, she didn’t cite one instance or example of a racial tactic that has been employed.

While playing the race card is nothing new in the world of Democrat politics, to then go after the American people because they support a particular candidate and thus call them racists is what perks up one’s ears. There are plenty of issues to address Mitt Romney on and many conservatives have done that. In fact, those issues are why many conservatives don’t support him.

However, Sen. Lucas referred to those supporting Romney as the “fringe” and says they are not only in Virginia, but across the nation.

From the transcript of the portion where Senator Lucas completely loses it in regards to her tirade on how America is racist (Full transcript & interview available here):

SENATOR LUCAS: What I am saying to you is Mitt Romney, he’s speaking to a segment of the population, who does not like to see people other than a White man in a White House or any other elected position….

I don’t believe the President can lead this discussion because it would be perceived in a way that would not be beneficial to him because the Republicans will try to make habit but there needs to be some kind of forum to deal with these issues.

All the folks who are saying ‘We don’t like Barack Obama’ they can’t tell you any reason they don’t because President Obama did not create the situation they have, this economic mess we are in, everybody knows this stuff happened under George Bush and they are trying to dump it on the President.

And intelligent people understand that President Barack Obama did not create this mess. And the mess that was created could not be solved in 2 or 3 or 4 years. Intelligent people understand that. But Mitt Romney will go out and play to the fringe and try to play to the fringe by saying it’s all Barack Obama’s fault.

So let’s get this straight. As far as I know Mitt Romney has not eluded anything to Barack Obama’s ethnicity, nor has GOP candidate Ron Paul, though he has been accused of being racist as well. Both men have attacked Barack Obama on his record, the economy, his policies and more things that are actually substantive.

Ms. Lucas here does not offer one thing against Mitt Romney on a substantive issue. All she can do is spew her hatred. She claims that Barack Obama should not lead a national discussion on race. I agree, because he has shown himself to be the biggest racist ever to fill the office of President of the U.S. Just a few refreshers for people who may have forgotten:

Barack Obama promoted Professor Derrick Bell and his Critical Race Theory.

Remember the “Beer Summit?” That event took place because Barack Obama commented on an event he had no idea based on the fact that there was a black Harvard professor who was arrested by a white Massachusetts police officer for disorderly conduct and Obama came on national television and without knowing anything declared that the officer “acted stupidly.” There was no apology involved. The only person ‘acting stupidly’ was Barack Obama.

Even George Zimmerman’s father called out the President for his hatred in the Trayvon Martin case as Obama sought to politicize the issue for more gun control.

He plays to the black voters as though they are his friends, when he is merely using them. It seems all this administration can muster is to cry racism when people oppose his policies.

The real reason people oppose Barack Obama is due to rational thinking when looking at his policies. Obama’s reasoning and the results speak for themselves. They are failures. To demonstrate just how bad they are failures, I have previously made a comparison of similar events that Ronald Reagan had to deal with upon taking office after Jimmy Carter. Obama is just as bad as Carter if not worse, but the approaches to the problem had different solutions and very different results. Those results were realized positively under Reagan within his first term and well we see the results of Barack Obama’s policies now and we are getting a very bleak look at the future of America should he remain in office.

The only racists are those who constantly want to bring racism up as a baseless charge.

Obama campaign needs more time for voter fraud

Ohio has long been a key swing state in presidential elections.  Since 1964, no one has won the general election without carrying the state of Ohio.  In this year’s hotly contested presidential election, Ohio holds 18 electoral votes.  Only California (55), Illinois (20), Florida (29), New York (29) Texas (38) and Pennsylvania (20) carry more electoral votes than Ohio.

In years past, Ohio, along with 31 other states, have allowed voters to vote early by mail or in person.  In Ohio’s case, they have allowed voting to take place during the three days prior to the general election.

However, with a Republican governor, Ohio has passed a new law restricting the voting to the day of the election, except for absentee mail in ballots.  With the Democratic slogan of ‘vote early and vote more often’, it’s no wonder that the Obama campaign has filed a lawsuit with Ohio’s election officials claiming that the new law unfairly discriminates against voters who want to vote early.  They cite the fact that military and overseas voters are still allowed to cast their votes on the day before the election.

In the past couple of years, Ohio Democrats have done their best to block voter ID laws and have even tried to push through a bill that would eliminate the need of having an address in order to register to vote.  By not having an address and being able to vote for 4 days, imagine the ‘vote early and vote more often’ opportunities available for dishonest voters.  When I heard the Dems pushing for this law, it reminded me of the old ballot stuffing days in Chicago.  Say, isn’t that where Barack Obama is from?

Democrats need as many voting days as possible so that more dead dogs, people and illegal aliens can vote to help counter the military votes.  Even though Oho only has two military bases – the Integrated Support Cleveland base operated by the U.S. Coast Guard and Wright-Patterson A.F.B.), the military vote could be enough to make the difference come November.  Wright-Patterson Air Force Base is the largest military base on U.S. land.

According the last Gallup Poll taken in May, 24% more veterans favored Mitt Romney over Barack Obama.  With Wright-Patterson A.F.B. covering two counties in this important swing state and being the largest military base on U.S. soil, the Democrats are desperate to take any measure possible, legal or illegal, to get Obama re-elected.

The original Aurora shooting - stopped by concealed carry

The original Aurora shooting: stopped by a concealed-carry hero

by Joel McDurmon on Jul 24, 2012

The New American reports,

On April 22 of this year a convicted felon, just out of jail, went to an Aurora, Colorado, church and shot and killed a member of the congregation before being killed himself by a congregant carrying a gun.

On July 20, following the horrific shooting at a movie theater in Aurora, President Obama offered his condolences to the victims of the more recent tragedy. . . .

Obama then led his supporters at a rally in Fort Myers, Florida, in a moment of silent prayer “for all the victims of less publicized acts of violence that plague our communities every single day.”

No doubt the president was unaware of the other, less-publicized lethal shooting that took place earlier in the year in Aurora, when there was only one victim, thanks to the quick thinking and action of a responsibly armed individual. Aurora police spokesman Frank Fania asked rhetorically: “Who knows what would’ve happened if the [church member, an off-duty police officer] had not been there? It certainly could have been a lot worse.”

How much worse? Could the killing spree have been as bad as the shooting at the movie theater, where a dozen victims lost their lives? Thankfully, we’ll never know. . . .

The little-known Aurora-church shooting illustrates how a tragedy (in this instance, the loss of one innocent life) can be prevented from becoming a much worse tragedy because one of the would-be victims was armed. The widely known movie-theater shooting illustrates the horrendous loss of life that can occur when the intended victims are not only defenseless but known by the perpetrator to be defenseless. Because movie theater was a “gun free” zone, it was an easy target for any madman wanting to prey on victims lacking the ability to fight back.

Ooops! Obama's top bundler and Bain...

Oops!… Obama’s Top Bundler Jonathan Lavine Was In Charge of Bain During GST Steel Layoffs

Posted by Jim Hoft on Wednesday, July 18, 2012, 5:43 AM

The Obama campaign blamed Governor Mitt Romney for the demise of GST Steel company in a video they released in May. The plant closed in 2001. Mitt left Bain in 1999.

For some reason the Obama camp forgot to mention this
Obama’s top bundler Jonathan Lavine was in charge of Bain during the BST layoffs.
Chuck Slowe reported:

Blaming Governor Romney for any issues surrounding the failure of GST is wrong and it is a blatant lie. Mitt Romney had been long gone when the company started to fail and subsequently closed it doors. When are the President and his campaign hacks going to get the story correct? When are they going to get back to their economy and its dreadful condition? Mr. President, you can run but you cannot hide.

It turns out that Jonathan Lavine, current Obama bundler, was actually in charge, at Bain, during that period, when the layoffs occurred. Oops, that isn’t right, is it? Yes, that story is the one that needs to be reported on. Sorry Mr. President, your lies are just getting to be more than many of us are able to handle.

And, Jonathan Lavine is not your average Obama Bain donor. Lavine is one of Barack Obama’s top bundlers.
ABC reported:

While Democrats assail presumptive Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney’s Bain Capital business practices, Republicans note that President Obama has not been bashful about accepting cash from Bain executives or other high-profile figures in the corporate buyout business…

…One of Obama’s top campaign financiers – Jonathan Lavine – is also managing director at Bain, bundling between $100,000 and $200,000 in contributions for the 2012 Obama Victory Fund, according to estimates released by the Obama campaign. The president has also relied on other leading figures in the private equity sector as hosts for high-dollar fundraisers and as members of his Jobs Council.

Maybe someday the liberal media will report on this.

Your spouse may be an alien!

Your spouse may be an alien!

by Frank Lake

The old saying about men and women being from different planets isn’t always a joke:  You may really be married to someone from outer space!

“As many as 5 million aliens are living in the United States after taking on human form,” says Dr. James Kune, a physicist and former government UFO expert. “They’re evenly split between male and female, and most of them are married though childless.

“My research has determined that the average person has a 50-50 chance of being married to one.”

Dr. Kune says he has researched human-alien marriages for the past 10 year and discovered at least 1,000 cases of aliens passing themselves off as human – so convincingly, few spouses have the slightest clue.

“Their motives for coming here remain unclear,” he says.  “World conquest, the desire to live on a strange planet, overcrowding on their home world – take your pick.  We will know the answer eventually.  Some of the aliens are Zeebans, the peaceful aliens and others are Gootans, the evil aliens.”

Dr. Kune says aliens mate with us for both practical and emotional reasons.

In the early years of alien visitation, many E.T.s were looking only for cover – marrying a human man or woman took suspicion off them as outsiders.  Eventually they realized that not all humans marry and that they could just as easily pass as confirmed bachelors or old maids.

But most aliens actually did end up marrying.  “For most other species, it’s unnatural NOT to pair off with someone.  The longer they stayed here, the lonelier and more eager for companionship they became.  And so they began developing actual loving relationships with humans.

“One of the most surprising findings in my research is that these alien-human relationship are among Earth’s strongest marriages.  While the overall divorce rate for U.S. marriages is hovering around 50 percent, almost 90 percent of alien-human marriages last well beyond the so-called “seven-year itch” that often marks the end of human-t0-human marriage.

“I can only theorize that the aliens are working harder to make their relationships succeed, probably to protect their true identities.  Or maybe they just like being married – which,” he says with a smile “really should be our first clue that they’re not human.

Getting serous again, Dr. June has several signs that point to your spouse being out of this world.

ALIEN HUSBANDS

Love to fix things around the house – and actually repairs what’s broken instead of making it worse.  “This is obviously a function of their highly developed mechanical and scientific skills.” Dr. Kune says.  “They usually have every high-tech power tool they can get their hands on, and keep it all compulsively organized.”

Do not use the TV remote to “surf”  -at lightening speed through channels, but stop at each program to absorb the information before moving on.

Are energized and stimulated by physical contact with their wife. They often initiate long conversations after a lovemaking session, in order to better understand the experience.

Will ask for help when they need it – sometimes. “A significant number are just as stubborn about things as human men.”  Dr. Kune says, “I suspect that a lot of aliens are on this planet only because they wouldn’t listen to people on their own planets.”

ALIEN WIVES:

Are fascinated by sporting events, especially those on TV.  They become very quiet during a game and do not question their husband about it, preferring to focus on the game and time in the telepathically to the coaches and players.

Approach housework and meal preparation as hard labor, and prefer to share these duties with their husbands.  “When their husbands did not offer to help with these duties, several alien wives reported feeling hurt and insulted,” Dr. Kune says.

Work hard at being fit and attractive by getting regular exercise and practicing good nutrition.  “I have not found a single instance of an alien wife asking her husband if she looks fat,” Dr. Kune Says.

Are analytical and logical in arguments with their husband. “Although we are beginning to see the early development of the skill of weeping, Dr. Kune says, “as alien women become more assimilated into our civilization.”

Proof: Establishment Media Controlled

There was a rather low-key confession made in the New York Times last week that deserves to be blared throughout this country so that every American understands what they are reading in the establishment’s ultra-controlled, government-managed “press” – and I use that last word loosely indeed.
The admission came in the form of a story by Jeremy Peters on the politics page of the Times July 16. I’ve been waiting for others to point it out, discuss it, debate it, express shock and exasperation over it. But I’ve waited for naught.

What this shocking story reveals is that even I – one of the kingpins of the new media and a refugee from the state-controlled spin machine – underestimated the utter and total corruption of the euphemistically called “mainstream press.”
It shows that most – not some – members of the print media establishment with access to the White House submit their copy to government officials for review, “correction” and approval before it reaches the American people!
Even “progressive” WND columnist Ellen Ratner agrees – media under a spell!
Here are some key excerpts from the piece, if you think I’m exaggerating:

  • “The quotations come back redacted, stripped of colorful metaphors, colloquial language and anything even mildly provocative.”
  • “They are sent by e-mail from the Obama headquarters in Chicago to reporters who have interviewed campaign officials under one major condition: the press office has veto power over what statements can be quoted and attributed by name.”
  • “Most reporters, desperate to pick the brains of the president’s top strategists, grudgingly agree. After the interviews, they review their notes, check their tape recorders and send in the juiciest sound bites for review. The verdict from the campaign – an operation that prides itself on staying consistently on script – is often no, Barack Obama does not approve this message.”
  • “Now, with a millisecond Twitter news cycle and an unforgiving, gaffe-obsessed media culture, politicians and their advisers are routinely demanding that reporters allow them final editing power over any published quotations.”
  • “Quote approval is standard practice for the Obama campaign, used by many top strategists and almost all mid-level aides in Chicago and at the White House – almost anyone other than spokesmen who are paid to be quoted. (And sometimes it applies even to them.) It is also commonplace throughout Washington and on the campaign trail.”
  • “Many journalists spoke about the editing only if granted anonymity, an irony that did not escape them.”
  • “From Capitol Hill to the Treasury Department, interviews granted only with quote approval have become the default position. Those officials who dare to speak out of school, but fearful of making the slightest off-message remark, shroud even the most innocuous and anodyne quotations in anonymity by insisting they be referred to as a ‘top Democrat’ or a ‘Republican strategist.’”
  • “Those [reporters] who did speak on the record said the restrictions seem only to be growing. ‘It’s not something I’m particularly proud of because there’s a part of me that says, Don’t do it, don’t agree to their terms,’ said Major Garrett, a correspondent for The National Journal.”
  • “It was difficult to find a news outlet that had not agreed to quote approval, albeit reluctantly. Organizations like Bloomberg, The Washington Post, Vanity Fair, Reuters and The New York Times have all consented to interviews under such terms.”

I could go on and on. I urge you to read the entire story. This may be the most important story broken by the New York Times in years.


What it means is this: When Americans read these reports – whether in newspapers, wire services or on the Internet – they are not really reading news stories at all. They are reading approved, pre-packaged press releases from the government and politicians. But, even worse, they are not labeled as such. They are labeled as actual news.


That’s how low the national press establishment has descended. And, when you read the story in its full context, you will understand that the concerns expressed about this practice by those submitting themselves to it are not ethical concerns. They are not concerns for the truth. They are concerns about their own convenience and for the loss of “color” in their stories.


Let me state what I hope is obvious to all reading this column: This sort of willing capitulation to government censorship was not the norm five years ago, 10 years ago, 20 years ago or 30 years ago. This is a new phenomenon – chilling and alarming to an old-timer like me who would never agree to submit his copy for approval to politicians.


These so-called journalists are selling their ethical and moral souls for access to politicians. And this practice raises expectations by politicians that they can routinely manipulate the press to their advantage. That makes the job of real journalists – independent reporters faithful to their craft – even more difficult, because they will be shut out from access.


It reminds me of the fact that, just last week, WND was denied credentials to cover the Democratic National Convention. Why do you suppose what has become one of the largest and most influential news agencies in the country would be denied access to the convention floor? Simply because the Democrats know we won’t play by their rules of control like the members of the establishment press club.
All I can say about these people I once considered “colleagues” is that I am so ashamed of them. I am mortified. They are humiliating themselves and a vital institution for any free society.
It seems the biggest threat to the American tradition of a free and independent press is not government coercion. It’s the willing submission of the press to being handled and managed by government and politicians.

The Most Business Despising President In History

President Obama’s “you didn’t build it” gaffe just defined the 2012 campaign. It succinctly encapsulates the president’s prejudices about the public versus the private sector. Though the president has frequently mouthed platitudes in praise of enterprise, his suspicion and contempt for business has always percolated just beneath the surface.

Of course, the president is partially correct, in a banal sort of way. Yes, roads, bridges, firefighters and teachers are essential prerequisites to establishing an environment in which business can operate. So are peace and freedom — for which we must thank the military.

But the president doesn’t understand that a critical aspect of good government — and an essential ingredient for stimulating economic growth — is not just roads but rules of the road. As economist John Taylor reminds us, steady, predictable and permanent rules permit business owners — and individuals — to plan for the future.

Obama gives statement of recognnition to ramadan

We hear today from our President, a statement of recognition of Ramadan. An Islamic holiday/religious observance.

In his statement he says this:

 ”Even as Ramadan holds profound meaning for the world’s 1.5 billion Muslims, it is also a reminder to people of all faiths of our common humanity and the commitment to justice, equality, and compassion shared by all great faiths.”

Really Mr. Obama? An Islamic holiday reminds everyone of justice equality and compassion? Just so I understand you correctly sir….you’re saying that the same religion that chops off peoples heads, beats, stones, and oppresses women, hangs homosexuals, and promotes hatred…..somehow reminds us of equality and compassion?

I’m not sure about anyone else but I don’t believe a religion that says that a muslim woman is only worth half a muslim man represents equality.

Finally: Veil lifted on muslim rape epidemic

Finally: Veil lifted on muslim rape epidemic

For years there have been reports on blogs, personal testimonials and the like, about what looked like a literal epidemic of rape by Muslim men of both women and children, especially in northern European nations where the Muslim immigrant population is high.

But the disturbing reports rarely rose to the level that would make the general population aware of the dangers that were becoming evident. After all, such a report would be blasted for attacking Islam and discriminating against Muslims.

Until now, when a case from the United Kingdom has proven so egregious it could not be ignored.

The BBC reported that nine men were convicted of child sexual exploitation in Greater Manchester, after they had “groomed” girls as young as 13. But even there, the report identified the convicts only as “Asian” while revealing their victims were white.

The Guardian took one more step and labeled them as “Pakistani,” but it took a lesser-known online news site, The Salfordian, to identify the suspects as “Muslim men” who “plied girls as young as 13 with drink and drugs so they could use them for sex ‘several times a day.’”

Now, the subject that long has been ignored or suppressed finally may be getting the attention a major crime wave would deserve, regardless of the political correctness of the facts.

Officials at The Gatestone Institute, a non-partisan, not-for-profit international policy council and think tank dedicated to educating the public about what the mainstream media fails to report, have spoken up.

In a commentary just days ago, the organization noted that the three-month trial where the “nine Muslim men were found guilty of raping dozens of British children” revealed that “police and social workers in northern England repeatedly refuse to investigate Muslim pedophile gangs: they said they are afraid of being called racist.”

“The disturbing details that emerged during the trial have opened yet another chapter in a long-running debate about multiculturalism in Britain, where many say that political correctness has gone too far,” the foundation said. “Less than a month after the trial in Liverpool ended … it emerged that social workers in the city of Rotherham, also in northern England, had known for six years that a teenage mother (identified as Child S) who was murdered for bringing shame on the families of two Pakistani men who had used her for sex, was at clear risk from predatory Muslim gangs.”

The city “Safeguarding Children Board” has reviewed the case, but “key politically incorrect passages which reveal that they had known she was at particular risk from ‘Asian men’ (Muslim men) were blocked out with black lines,” the foundation charged. “The council went to court in an attempt to suppress the hidden information after an uncensored copy of the report was leaked to a British newspaper, but the legal action was eventually abandoned. The uncensored report confirmed that Child S had pursued dealings with 15 different agencies, and identified ‘numerous missed opportunities’ to protect her; observers believe the agencies failed to do so be because they did not want to be branded as racist.”

The foundation has identified a series of additional incidents where the appearance of special privilege was evident, and they all included one common factor: Islam.

  • According to Gatestone, it was in Leicester where a “gang of Somali Muslim women” assaulted and nearly killed a non-Muslim passer-by but walked free when a “political correct” judge said that as Muslims they were “not used to being drunk.”
  • In London, two Muslims repeatedly raped a women but had their sentences reduced after “politically correct judges” ruled they were not “dangerous.”
  • In Wiltshire, police pulled over a driver and ordered him to remove the flag of England from his vehicle, because it could be “deemed racist and offensive to Muslim immigrants.”
  • In Manchester, police arrested a 14-year-old girl who asked a teacher if she could switch tables, as the five other students at her table were speaking Urdu and she couldn’t understand. She was booked on suspicion of a “section five racial public order offense.”

But regarding the rape epidemic, the unusually blunt Salfordian report on the nine Muslims convicted took to the editorial page for just a minute.

“As we’ve come to expect the media refers to them as just ‘Asian’ rather than Muslim and online comments haven’t been allowed because we can’t upset the Muslim invaders,” the report said.

Because of the circumstances – to identify Muslim rapists individuals have to be identified by their religion – statistics about the problem appear to be almost nonexistent.

So, many of the reports of rape and assault remain below the radar, reaching only to the level of forums such as the Asian Image, where a woman posted a first-person testimony about being assaulted by a Muslim imam.

“I am angry that a man was allowed to get away with abusing a little girl for four years, and nobody picked up on it, my parents did not pick up on my mood swings, from being quiet to being angry. My abuser was supposedly a man of faith, a man of standing, a man we trusted, someone who had authority in the community. … He took away my childhood, he took me to the dark place, where I cannot get out of,” her tormented testimony explains.

But several better-known blogs have tried, with The Gates of Vienna posting a testimony from Paul Weston of the British Freedom Party.

He said, “The liberal/left need to take a long hard look themselves in the wake of the appalling Muslim gang rape revelations. I don’t blame the Muslims particularly, they are simply living by the 7th century rules of a desert warrior, but I do blame the liberal/left for quite literally enabling the brutal rape and violation of our children.

“All you liberal/leftists are complicit in these crimes against humanity. You could have stopped it years ago, but you deliberately chose not to,” he said.

“The BBC, The Guardian, the Crown Prosecution Service, the Child Protection Agency, the Politically Correct Police Service: I accuse you and the entire liberal establishment of deliberately covering up the multiple rapes and ruined lives of countless vulnerable young girls because of your utterly immoral and obscene attitude toward your own people, and your cowardly appeasement of a religious and political ideology that sanctions the violation of non-Muslim females.

“Even now, when the facts are presented before us, you tell us it is not a Muslim problem, nor apparently a racial problem, unless of course you happen to be a vaguely all-encompassing Asian. But no amount of politically correct liberal/left evasion can disguise reality, and reality confirms the overwhelming culture of these pedophile rapists to be Islamic, and the overwhelming race of the majority of the victims to be indigenous British girls,” he said.

Warming up to the subject he cited Muslim rape epidemics in Oslo, Malmo, Copenhagen and Sydney.

“I think we can safely say, then, that it is indeed a matter of one particular religion, Islam, rather than the liberal/left’s obscene portrayal of it as simply as Asian problem, and it is indeed a racial problem when the victims are overwhelmingly native Europeans,” he said.

He said the problem has been identified in 13 towns and cities in Britain “and it now turns out the authorities have known about it since the early 1990s. In other words, possibly thousands of vulnerable and underage British girls have been raped and both physically and psychologically damaged for life, with at least two taking their own lives…”

Jihad Watch also has documented the ongoing dangers.

The report suggested the Islamics were just following Islam: “Their Islamic supremacist contempt for non-Muslims as the ‘worst of creatures’ (Quran 89.6), whom Muslims are bound by Allah to treat with harshness (Quran 48:29; 9:123).”

The Sheikyermami website continues to document the epidemic, with headlines including ” Immigrants rape girl after Quran classes,” “British girls gang-raped as part of Eid Celebration,” and “Illegal immigrant raped young woman three years after judge ordered him to be depoated.”

Atlasshrugs has documented the attacks in Sweden, and the MuslimRapeWave cites cases from all over and coordinates protests.

One report there describes how a Muslim taxi driver raped and killed a passenger, then hid her body so “his community” wouldn’t find out.

Some of the reports on the issue date back a decade, with one at Jihad Watch took direct testimony from an interrogation of a rapist.

There, Muslim terrorist Ramzi Hashem Abed was being asked about his activities:

He was asked, “Tell me how many rape and kidnapping operations were carried out. My information says that the kidnapped women were university students or daughters of famous people. You raped them and got money for it, and if they were not slaughtered afterwards…. Did this really happen?”

“Yes, it did,” Abed said.

The interrogator asked, “Is this Jihad – raping women? Is this Jihad?”

Abed: “It is because they collaborated with the Americans.”

Interrogator: “That’s why they were raped?”

Abed: “Yes.”

Interrogator: “A student who is simply going to her university is kidnapped, raped, and then slaughtered?! This was an American collaborator?!”

Commentator Michelle Malkin also has raised the issue, citing reports that “the gang rapes of Muslim girls and women” are on the rise in France.

“The culprits are Islamic fundamentalist thugs,” the report said.

Hawaii official: No obama birth certificate

Hawaii official now swears: No Obama birth certificate

Tim Adams has now signed an affidavit swearing he was told by his supervisors in Hawaii that no long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate existed for Barack Obama Jr. in Hawaii and that neither Queens Medical Center nor Kapi’olani Medical Center in Honolulu had any record of Obama having been born in their medical facilities.

Adams was employed at the City and County of Honolulu Elections Division from May 2008 through September 2008.

His position was senior elections clerk, overseeing a group of 50 to 60 employees responsible for verifying the identity of voters at the Absentee Ballot Office. It was in this capacity that Adams became aware of the search for Obama’s birth-certificate records.

“During the course of my employment,” Adams swears in the affidavit (viewable in full as part 1 and part 2), “I became aware that many requests were being made to the City and County of Honolulu Elections Division, the Hawaii Office of Elections, and the Hawaii Department of Health from around the country to obtain a copy of then-Senator Barack Obama’s long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate.”

As he inquired about the birth certificate, he says, his supervisors told him that the records were not on file at the Hawaii Department of Health.

“Senior officers in the City and County of Honolulu Elections Division told me on multiple occasions that no Hawaii long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate existed for Senator Obama in the Hawaii Department of Health,” Adams’ affidavit reads, “and there was no record that any such document had ever been on file in the Hawaii Department of Health or any other branch or department of the Hawaii government.”

 

In a recorded telephone interview, Adams told WND that it was common knowledge among election officials where he worked that no long-form, hospital-generated birth certificate could be found at the Hawaii Department of Health.

“My supervisor came and told me, ‘Of course, there’s no birth certificate. What? You stupid,’” Adams said. “She usually spoke well, but in saying this she reverted to a Hawaiian dialect. I really didn’t know how to respond to that. She said it and just walked off. She was quite a powerful lady.”

Obama vs Christians

Should Christians Support President Obama?

This man was on Dr. Charles Stanley's program "In Touch" as a guest speaker.

I almost shouted "HALLELUJAH" when I finished reading. Forward or discard....it's your choice...but PLEASE read before you do!

 

Dr. David Barton is more of a historian than a Biblical speaker, but very famous for his knowledge of historical facts as well as Biblical truths.

Dr. David Barton - on Obama

Respect the Office? Yes.

Respect the Man in the Office? No, I am sorry to say. I have noted that many elected officials, both Democrats and Republicans, called upon America to unite behind Obama. Well, I want to make it clear to all who will listen that I AM NOT uniting behind Obama!  I will respect the Office which he holds, and I will acknowledge his abilities as an orator and wordsmith and pray for him, BUT that is it.

I have begun today to see what I can do to make sure that he is a one-term President! Why am I doing this?

It is because:

- I do not share Obama's vision or value system for America;

- I do not share his Abortion beliefs;

- I do not share his radical Marxist's concept of re-distributing wealth;

- I do not share his stated views on raising taxes on those who make$150,000+

  (the ceiling has been changed three times since August);

- I do not share his view that America is Arrogant;

- I do not share his view that America is not a Christian Nation;

- I do not share his view that the military should be reduced by 25%;

- I do not share his view of amnesty and giving more to illegals than our American Citizens who need help;

- I do not share his views on homosexuality and his definition of marriage;

- I do not share his views that Radical Islam is our friend and Israel is our enemy who should give up any land;

- I do not share his spiritual beliefs (at least the ones he has made public);

- I do not share his beliefs on how to re-work the healthcare system in America;

- I do not share his Strategic views of the Middle East; and

- I certainly do not share his plan to sit down with terrorist regimes such as Iran.

Bottom line: my America is vastly different from Obama's, and I have a higher obligation to my Country and my GOD to do what is Right!

For eight (8) years, the Liberals in our Society, led by numerous entertainers who would have no platform and no real credibility but for their celebrity status, have attacked President Bush, his family, and his spiritual beliefs!

They have not moved toward the center in their beliefs and their philosophies, and they never came together nor compromised their personal beliefs for the betterment of our Country!

They have portrayed my America as a land where everything is tolerated except being intolerant!  They have been a vocal and irreverent minority for years.  They have mocked and attacked the very core values so important to the founding and growth of our Country!

They have made every effort to remove the name of GOD or Jesus Christ from our Society!

They have challenged capital punishment, the right to bear firearms, and the most basic principles of our criminal code!

They have attacked one of the most fundamental of all Freedoms, the right of free speech!

Unite behind Obama? Never!

I am sure many of you who read this think that I am going overboard, but I refuse to retreat one more inch in favor of those whom I believe are the embodiment of Evil!

PRESIDENT BUSH made many mistakes during his Presidency, and I am not sure how history will judge him. However, I believe that he weighed his decisions in light of the long established Judeo-Christian principles of our Founding Fathers!!!

Majority rules in America, and I will honor the concept; however, I will fight with all of my power to be a voice in opposition to Obama and his "goals for America ..."

I am going to be a thorn in the side of those who, if left unchecked, will destroy our Country! Any more compromise is more defeat!

I pray that the results of this election will wake up many who have sat on the sidelines and allowed the Socialist-Marxist anti-GOD crowd to slowly change so much of what has been good in America!

GOD bless you and GOD bless our Country.
