Ediblog.com - Editorial Blogs On The Edge

I love good entertainment, especially a good laugh...and it's getting easier to find one. Just sit back, grab some popcorn and watch Obama expose more of his true character...

President Bush made a comment, which applied to many foolish people in our republic, but the self-absorbed (and a wee bit paranoid) presidential candidate B. Hussein Obama was sure it was meant for him and reacted with the typical liberal battle cry: Wah, wah, wah...they're picking on me!

Speaking to Israel's Knesset during a visit to celebrate Israel's 60th Birthday, President Bush said:

"Some seem to believe that we should negotiate with the terrorists and radicals, as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along....We have heard this foolish delusion before. As Nazi tanks crossed into Poland in 1939, an American senator declared: 'Lord, if I could only have talked to Hitler, all this might have been avoided.' We have an obligation to call this what it is - the false comfort of appeasement, which has been repeatedly discredited by history."

Now I personally can name a few people who hold this perniciously ignorant and moronic view, but B. Hussein knows it's all about him (isn't everything?).

The President is right on. Our republic is replete with fools that are unable to comprehend the mindset of the enemies of freedom...and if Obama wants to identify himself as one, I won't refute it.

A fool is fun at the circus or in a sitcom, but allowing a fool to run the greatest nation on the earth is not funny...and (G-d forbid) with Obama at the helm, this nation would be donning a big red nose...and the terrorists (Obama's fans) will be happy to accommodate us with the exploding shoes.

Swiss Say: Don't Steam But Esteem Your Escarole

May 15, 2006

Yes that's right...the Swiss tell us it's time to show respect for our veggies...

According to the Weekly Standard, a few years ago the Swiss added a provision to their national constitution requiring "account to be taken of the dignity of creation when handling animals, plants and other organisms." The Swiss Federal Ethics Committee on Non-Human Biotechnology explained the provision with a report, "The Dignity of Living Beings with Regard to Plants."

WOW...It's almost like getting hit on the head in a cartoon and having stars circling it like a halo...

I guess when you have a history of remaining neutral (or you don't have the spine to stand up for anyone but yourself), you're apt to be confused by what should be respected. (Here's a clue: Organisms that need manure thrown on them to grow are not it.)

The Swiss Federal Ethics Committee on Non-Human Biotechnology offered an illustration:

A farmer mows his field. But then, while walking home, he casually "decapitates" some wildflowers with his scythe ("decapitating" the flowers is apparently immoral). At this point it remains unclear whether this action is condemned because it expresses a particular moral stance of the farmer toward other organisms or because something bad is being done to the flowers themselves.

Decapitates? These people have way too much time on their hands.

In order to understand life and all its elements, one must acquaint oneself with the Creator of life. He and He alone can impart wisdom and understanding about His creation...and I can guarantee that if the Swiss take some time to seek the Creator, they will no longer be paying obeisance to daffodils...or tiptoeing around the tulips.

So, hey...go ahead and steam those veggies... that's what they're there for!

Obama: Hamas Support "Perfectly Legitimate"

May 14, 2008

It all began last month when Hamas political adviser Ahmed Yousef told WABC radio Hamas hopes Obama will win the presidential election and change America's foreign policy.

And now it appears Obama has no problem with this endorsement at all...

Obama told the Atlantic magazine:

"It's conceivable that there are those in the Arab world who say to themselves, 'This is a guy who spent some time in the Muslim world, has a middle name of Hussein and appears more worldly and has called for talks with people, and so he's not going to be engaging in the same sort of cowboy diplomacy as George Bush...that's a perfectly legitimate perception..."

Now this statement is puzzling in light of the fact that Obama severed ties with a Middle East policy adviser (Robert Malley). Why? Because Malley advocated negotiations with Hamas and was dismissed after divulging to the Times of London that he had been in regular contact with the group in concurrence with his work to create a conflict resolution think tank.

Wait a minute...I thought Hamas was cool with Obama? Which is it?

Obama is a dangerous man. Oh his oration is unctuous and he pours on the charm when necessary, but he is willing to accept the support of terrorists and have an advisor work with them (surreptitiously) in order to make our "policies" more to their liking...(until that advisor gets caught).

If the enemy of my enemy is my friend, then it would follow that the friend of my enemy is my enemy...and I guess that would include Obama.

Rev. Or Muslim Cleric?

May 13, 2008

Perhaps the Rev. Jeremiah Wright should have been a Muslim cleric?

Wright's most blistering invective "America’s chickens are coming home to roost,” and whites are “blue-eyed devils,” were first spouted by founding members of the Black Muslim Movement (an anti-American organization that later became the Nation of Islam).

Lest we forget, it was Malcolm X who said (immediately following President Kennedy's assassination) that America's "chickens are coming home to roost."

Rev. or Muslim cleric?

Are We Inspiring Hezbollah?

May 12, 2008

This past Saturday (May 10th), the Syrian and Iranian backed terrorist group Hezbollah seized control of several western Beirut neighborhoods creating street battles utilizing heavy weaponry in a display called "hellish" by witnesses.

Hezbollah is on the move again...

So, what has inspired and emboldened these violent vermin to begin moving toward another war? Let's examine the facts...

A weak Israeli government led by a pandering PM who would give his own family members to the enemy if it would make him look good on the world stage.
The US government acting like a gadfly circling Israel's head about surrendering more land for a false peace with Israel's enemies.
Olmert's success in making the IDF look weak to its enemies (an important incentive for Muslims to conquer Israel).
Olmert's reluctance, by US pressure, to retaliate as Israel's enemies attack its citizenry.

Here's a reminder: Hezbollah was the terrorist group that killed 241 Marines on a peacekeeping mission in Beirut, as they slept, in 1983. They killed the head of the Marine Corps in Beirut. They killed the head of the CIA in Beirut. They also bombed the US embassy in Beirut. So, our government should do everything within its power to deter and destroy Hezbollah.

But apparently, we haven't.

The actions of our State Dept. (with regards to Israel and the PA), emanating from the President, are sending a deadly message of encouragement to Hezbollah...and in doing so, to their supporters, that the US is as weak as it was on Sept. 10, 2001.

And in essence...we are motivating our murderers to continue to kill (i.e. look at Lebanon).

Are we inspiring Hezbollah? You don't need to be a military analyst to answer that.

The New Patriotism

May 9, 2008

The cornerstone of the New Patriotism (NP) is the belief that America is a brutal and rapacious hegemony that is responsible for all the ills in the world.

From Katrina to Darfur--those who practice this

NP (liberals and their dogged disciples) believe it is their devout duty to openly condemn their own country. They have forsaken flag-waving for strident rebuke and glaring cynicism of all things American.

And make no mistake: Barrack Hussein Obama, Bill Ayers and Jeremiah Wright are at the vanguard of this NP.

As Long As We Tolerate, Terror Will Proliferate

May 8, 2008

There is no question that our government's persistent interference in the Middle East conflict has been emboldening terrorists...

Our (US) sole coercion has been upon Israel. Turning a complete blind eye to the daily rocket bombardment by Hamas upon innocent Israeli citizens has been of no concern or consequence to the Bush administration. Residents of Sderot live in fear and are now faced with privation due to the unrelenting attacks upon their homes and lives.

But does this dissuade Sec. Rice and the pro-Arab State Dept. from their mission? Nah. They easily ignore terror attacks by Hamas because it might interfere with their desire to please the Arab street (not to mention the fruition Bush's desired legacy).

When we (US) ignore terrorists and pressure the victims to negotiate with the very terrorists committing the acts, everyone loses. Because there's nothing Muslims respect less than weakness...and if you're a party to that perception...you lose.

A word to the wise (or those who desire to be): As long as we tolerate, terror will proliferate.

The Company You Keep

May 7, 2008

"Do not be misled: Bad company corrupts good character." 1 Corinthians 15:33

Bill Ayers stomping on the American Flag

Bill Ayers Facts:

Bill Ayers is an unrepentant Weatherman Underground leader (the Weathermen aka the Weather Underground Organization, was an American radical left group formed in 1969...and was placed on FBI ten most wanted list in 1970 for terrorist activities.)
Ayers enjoyed the bombs he and his fellow revolutionaries set off to protest American “imperialism” and the war in Vietnam. “I don’t regret setting bombs...I feel we didn’t do enough.”
Ayers is a fan of Ho Chi Minh, Che Guevara, Fidel Castro, Mao Tse-tung, et al.

Obama had a relationship with Bill Ayers in recent past Hyde Park politics. His campaign is reticent to expand on this relationship. But any connection with an unrepentant terrorist is disturbing.

Obama has had a 20 year relationship with one vitriolic, anti-American racist (Wright)...and adding the miscreant Bill Ayers to this huddle can only cause intelligent Americans to question the content of Obama's character...by the company he keeps.

We Have No Friends

May 6, 2008

Gee, what a surprise! According to the Yemeni government, the six men convicted of the strike against the USS Cole have escaped from prison or been set free.

It is for this very reason that most Americans are incredulous of our so-called Muslim allies.

Yemen (a purported ally in the War on Terror) has chillingly demonstrated that it rather identify with its Muslims brothers (in this case the assassins of 17 US sailors) than administer justice.

This, once again— palpably indicates that within the international Muslim community: We have no friends.

No Legacy Is Worth That

May 5, 2008

I guess the daily destruction, injuries and deaths are just not enough to keep the President from sending his political forces, in the person of Sec. Rice, back again to twist Israel's arm just a little further until they scream "Uncle."

What an appalling way to gain a legacy.

Sec. Rice met again with Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak to insist upon the removal of more Israeli checkpoints in Judea and Samaria, you know...the areas meant to hinder the movement of terrorists that have murdered thousands of Israelis.

So let me see, that would be like citizens pressuring law enforcement to remove any speeding and DUI checkpoints, you know...points established to protect innocent civilians from dangerous behavior.

Oh, come on...

When is this lunacy going to cease? The President needs to take a pause here. I don't believe he's considering all the consequences. Pres. Bush is a compassionate man. I don't believe he really wants the blood of one innocent Israel on his hands...and that's exactly what he will have if he continues this legacy campaign upon Israel.

Joel 3:2 states, “I will enter into judgment with them [all the nations who]…have divided up My Land.”

There are consequences for dividing G-d's land...and none of them are good. Widespread destruction and devastation again upon the Jews. Hatred will be cultivated in the Muslim and other anti-Semitic segments globally. And innocent Jewish lives will be destroyed.

No legacy is worth that.

Shalom.

Rep. Sue "Moxie" Myrick: As Patriotic As They Come

May 2, 2008

Sadly, almost 7 years following the most devastating terror attack on our sod, there are few in congress who care enough about the safety of our precious citizenry to do what one from the "Tar Heel State" is willing to do...

This month, Rep. Sue Myrick (R-NC) released a 10 point list she hopes will reveal how radical elements of Islam might be infiltrating the military, schools and other segments of American society.

Among her sagacious suggestions is one point that should be a no-brainer:

7. Will attempt to cancel scholarship student visa program with Saudi Arabia until they reform their textbooks. (Saudi textbooks preach hatred and violence against non-Muslims.)

Bet you didn't know that our government never halted the scholarship student visa program with Saudi Arabia, despite the fact that 15 of the 19 9/11 hijackers were...you guessed it: Saudis!

I think it's time for a conga line...and every representative needs to get in line behind Rep. Myrick. Because Congress needs to remember that we're watching them and they need to 'dance with the one who brung ya'...and the dance begins again this November.

One 'Burning Man'? Hamas Has 200,000 Of Them

May 1, 2008

Black Rock Nevada may have its pagan 'Burning Man' every year, but the terrorist group Hamas promises it has 200,000 religious burning men ready to destroy Israel for Allah...

That's Hamas' threat if Israel rejects the Egyptian initiative for a truce with the 'Palestinians '. "If Israel says no, it will pay a heavy price," said Mahmoud Zahar, a senior Hamas official in the Gaza Strip. "We are a besieged people and we will have to use all our tools to defend ourselves against Israel."

So we have the US government on one side pressuring Israel to surrender and comply with the PA's demands via Egypt...and part of the PA government (Hamas) on the other side promising to send a few hundred thousand suicide bombers to force Israel to accept a hudna (temporary truce).

Sounds equitable to me.

Instead of holding the fuse for this group of flaming fiends, it would serve our country better to extinguish this conflagration before it comes back to singe us in the 'you know what'.

Shalom.
