Facts:

The War on Terrorism (also known as the War on Terror) is the common term for the various military, political and legal actions by the United States government, in response to the unprovoked attacks on September 11, 2001. The official objectives of the 'War on Terror' are to counter terrorist threats, prevent terrorist acts and curb the influence of Muslim terrorist groups such as al-Qaeda.

This campaign of Muslim terrorist acts upon 'infidels' (non-Muslims) is religiously motivated and can be traced back to the founder of Islam (Mohammed). The current wave was brought about because non-Muslims made the mistake of displaying weakness, which in Muslim eyes is a position to be conquered.

Obama, in his own words:

"We live in a more dangerous world, partly as a consequence of Bush’s actions, primarily because of this war in Iraq that should have never been authorized or waged...The US has to reserve all military options in facing an imminent threat - but we have to do it wisely."

McCain, in his own words:

"America faces a dedicated, focused, and intelligent foe in the war on terrorism. This enemy will probe to find America's weaknesses and strike against them. The United States cannot afford to be complacent about the threat, naive about terrorist intentions, unrealistic about their capabilities, or ignorant to our national vulnerabilities."

Now you know.

Monday evening, the Dems tried to send a message to the naive in our country that the Obamas are just simple folk, just like you and me. They paraded Michelle Obama out with new makeup, a new Do and Crest White Strips (I'm not sure Michelle cared for the 'White' part)...and conjuring up images of her family, she drew some tears. Then they had a video link-up with Barack sitting in a 'typical white' family's home and he carried on an intimate conversation with his daughters...how sweet.

The Dems goal? To show us other 'typical white people' that Obama is just like us humble folk. 

Nice try but no cigar. Why come to this conclusion? Well, if Obama was simple folk like most of America, he would have planned his acceptance speech at the convention center like every other candidate does. But not Barack Almighty...he planned something more suited for 'simple folk'...an 80,000 seat stadium built for professional sports teams and rock stars.

How unassuming.

Obama is an elitist who associates with elitists and feels he knows better than ordinary Americans. He doesn't want to be elected, he wants to be crowned. 

Simple folks? Nice try, but we're not that stupid.

“I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction...Mohamed is my continuing source of inspiration.”

                            --From Audacity of Hope

Is it possible for someone to say something so unctuously and yet be handing you a boldfaced lie? Just listen to the presumptive Democrat candidate for president...

Among a myriad of paltering statements, one that truly stands out is, I'm a "stalwart friend of Israel...I think that their security is sacrosanct."

Sounds nice, but is it true? Well, according to those funny things known as facts, it ain't...

A convenient thing about Obama and his party, they, like Muslims, have no problem lying to the opposition (or just anyone in general) as long as it gets them where they want to go. If telling Jews that he stands with Israel will enable him to get their vote...he has no problem doing so. If he gets caught, he simply 'misspoke'. 

But Obama's many associations and supporters tell a different story. Here are just a few:

• Upon his visit to Ramallah, members of the Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades were been called upon by the PA to assist in the protection of Obama. (Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades is listed as a terror organization by the U.S. State Department.)

• Former (thank G-d) US President Jimmy 'Dhimmi' Carter, no friend of the Jewish people, is an Obama supporter.

• Louis Farrakhan (leader of the anti-Semitic Nation of Islam) endorsed Obama.

• He chose an anti-Semitic military advisor, General Merrill "Tony" McPeak.

• Has a close 20 year relationship with Jew-hating Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

• Anti-Semite Former Rep. David Bonior represented Obama at the Democratic National Committee in June.

• The FARC (al Qaeda of Latin America) Terrorists are hoping and expecting Barack Obama to win the presidency because he is most aligned with the Colombian Marxist group.

• Vladimir Putin, Russian tyrant and anti-Semite, would love to see an Obama victory. 

• Obama has had members of the Nation of Islam, the oldest black nationalist organization (who is consistently racist and anti-Semitic) on his payroll.

Nice company. (And these are just a few of those who want Obama to win.) It's a sure bet that they (the above mentioned) cannot all be ignorant of who this man really is. And that's scary.

Jewish voters beware...this man is no friend, but a smooth-talking fiend of the Jewish State. And at this point in history, does Israel really need another anti-Semitic leader in its midst?

Shalom.

An American Carol: Yes Virginia, There Is A Hollywood Right

August 22, 2008

"Thank Allah for the ACLU." from the up coming movie, "An American Carol"

Yes, that's right...the Left is about to receive a rude awakening and an education from the Hollywood Right. 

And yes Virginia, there is a Hollywood Right...

As the late Charlton Heston said, "There are more closet conservatives in Hollywood than closet homosexuals"...and they're coming out this Fall to teach those poor, ignorant, anti-American liberals a lesson. 

And an entertaining lesson at that. All wrapped up in, An American Carol.

So who's responsible for teaching the lesson in this flick? Well, it's being taught by a former leftie: David Zucker (Naked Gun & Airplane). 

Wondering what could have changed Zucker's ideology? Well, here it is...he was still a Democrat when George W. Bush was elected in 2000. Zucker states, "Then 9/11 happened, and I couldn’t take it anymore...The response to 9/11—the right was saying this is pure evil we’re facing and the left was saying how are we at fault for this? I think I’d just had enough. And I said ‘I quit.’"

And quit he did...quit the wrong side and joined the right...and now we'll be rolling in the isles again because he did!

According to Stephen Hayes in the Weekly Standard, Zucker’s latest movie, An American Carol, is different than anything that has come out of Hollywood to date. Hayes says, "It is a frontal attack on the excesses of the American left from several prominent members of a growing class of Hollywood conservatives. Until now, conservatives in Hollywood have always been too few and too worried about a backlash to do anything serious to challenge the left-wing status quo."

And I'm loving it already...

Yes, there's a Hollywood Right...and their 'Facebook' is an organization called, "Friends of Abe" which gathers clandestinely...because of all those 'tolerant', 'inclusive', warm and fuzzy libs that wouldn't exactly approve. And the group has added to the film the following cream-of-the-crop actors and celebs including: Kevin P. Farley, Kelsey Grammer, Robert Davi, Trace Atkins (country music star), Jon Voight, Dennis Hopper, James Woods, Kevin Sorbo, Bill O'Reilly (O'Reilly Factor), Fred Travalena, Rosie O'Connell and David Alan Grier.

The story is in the style of Dickens' A Christmas Carol...an anti-American filmmaker (who resembles Michael Moore), out to abolish the July 4th holiday, is visited by three ghosts who try to show him the country's virtuous sides. What an education for all those self-hating Americans out there. A politically correct-free zone...and here's the trailer.

Coming out (no pun intended) this October 3rd. Rolling in the isles permitted...

Facts: 

Supreme Court of the United States is the highest court in the United States and the chief authority in the judicial branch, one of three branches of the United States federal government (Executive, Legislative and Judicial). The Supreme Court hears appeals from decisions of lower federal courts and state supreme courts, and it resolves issues of constitutional and federal law. Nine judges sit on the Court: the chief justice of the United States and eight associate justices. The president of the United States appoints them to the Court for life terms, but the U.S. Senate must approve each appointment. The power of judicial review enables the Court to invalidate both federal and state laws when they conflict with a strict constructionist interpretation of the Constitution (according to the Founder's "Original Intent," also elucidated further in the Federalist Papers). The Supreme Court may not legislate from the bench. Legislation is the duty of the Congress, the Legislative branch of government. The Judicial branch was originally designed to be the weakest of the three branches.

Obama, in his own words:

"I taught constitutional law for 10 years, and . . . when you look at what makes a great Supreme Court justice, it's not just the particular issue and how they rule, but it's their conception of the Court. And part of the role of the Court is that it is going to protect people who may be vulnerable in the political process, the outsider, the minority, those who are vulnerable, those who don't have a lot of clout. . . .Sometimes we're only looking at academics or people who've been in the [lower] court. If we can find people who have life experience and they understand what it means to be on the outside, what it means to have the system not work for them, that's the kind of person I want on the Supreme Court."

McCain, in his own words:

"My nominees will understand that there are clear limits to the scope of judicial power, and clear limits to the scope of federal power."

Concerning Obama's rejection of Justice Roberts nomination: "Senator Obama in particular likes to talk up his background as a lecturer on law, and also as someone who can work across the aisle to get things done...but he went right along with the partisan crowd, and was among the 22 senators to vote against this highly qualified nominee...Apparently, nobody quite fits the bill except for an elite group of activist judges, lawyers, and law professors who think they know wisdom when they see it — and they see it only in each other."

Now you know.

Israel is surrounded by enemies on every side. But there has now surfaced a new and more dangerous enemy...an enemy within: Israeli Arabs.

Groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah are now recruiting Israeli Arabs to commit terror attacks upon innocent Israelis. Two of these were seen recently when Israeli Arabs used construction equipment (bulldozers) to mow down innocent Israelis in the street.

And for those who think these attacks are committed by poor, uneducated Arabs...an Israeli Arab was arrested last month at Israel’s Ben-Gurion Airport after he returned from Germany. Khaled Kashkoush, 29, has been studying medicine for a number of years in Gottingen, Germany. He confessed, during an interrogation, that while he was in Germany he was recruited by Hezbollah agents. According to FrontPageMag, he was to supply info about Israeli nationals studying abroad who could be possible Hezbollah recruits, and to obtain work in an Israeli hospital so he could gather information about security personnel or soldiers being treated there.

This is a critical situation. The enemies that Israel fights on a daily basis have managed to bring hell a little closer. The freedoms they have extended to myriad Arabs (freedoms they cannot obtain in the 'Palestinian' areas or in any of their neighboring Arab countries), has been repaid not with friendship and peace, but with a knife (or bulldozer) in the back.

With enemies as far as the eye can see, a fifth column is the last thing the Jewish State needs.

Shalom.

Facts: 

The federal Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) defines marriage as a legal union between one man and one woman for purposes of all federal laws, and provides that states need not recognize a marriage from another state if it is between persons of the same sex. Forty states have their own Defense of Marriage Acts (DOMAs). In 1996, Congress adopted DOMA. Congress passed DOMA because of a protracted assault on marriage, and predominantly in response to a Hawaii court decision that implied there is a right to same-sex “marriage” in the Hawaii Constitution. DOMA was signed by President Clinton on Sept. 21, 1996.

Obama, in his own words:

"I support the complete repeal of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA)-a position I have held since before arriving in the U.S. Senate...while some say we should repeal only part of the law, I believe we should get rid of that statute altogether. Federal law should not discriminate in any way against gay and lesbian couples, which is precisely what DOMA does." (Note: The new Democrat National Platform Opposes the Defense of Marriage Act. The platform draft states, "We oppose the Defense of Marriage Act...”)

McCain, in his own words:

"I supported the Defense of Marriage Act adopted by Congress and signed into law by President Clinton in 1996...the law neither compels a state to recognize a same-sex marriage from another state, nor does it prohibit states from recognizing such marriages. It simply protects each state's right to choose how it will define marriage." (McCain voted for DOMA in 1996.)

The news, last Friday, that the former senator and presidential candidate, John Edwards, admitted guilt of having an affair while his wife endured a grave battle with cancer, was not as big a surprise to everyone...

We've all heard that expression 'progressive' bandied about by those on the left. The reason is it's their euphemism for liberal (a word that often leaves a bad taste in the mouth of the average American). But giving liberalism a new name certainly has not changed the result of its ideology. 

Liberalism, among other things, stands for unfettered sexual activity, abortion on demand, open marriage (including perverse unions), co-habitation, multiple partners, moral relativism ('if it feels good, do it'), and so on. 

So why would we be shocked or appalled by John Edwards' behavior? The ideology encourages free love, doesn't it? If it felt good for Edwards, isn't that all that mattered? 

Well, progressives...just like followers of other anarchy-based ideologies, eventually must face the consequences of their dictates. And since the Creator has placed a certain knowledge of right and wrong upon every man's heart...this explains the general revulsion of Edward's behavior.

Bottom line: A rose is a rose...and liberalism, by any other name, still corrupts. 

Isn't that right, Mr. Edwards?

Facts: 

This procedure, according to the American Medical Association (AMA), is never necessary to save the life of the mother. The Partial-birth abortion, also called "brain suction" or "D&X", procedure is as follows: Most are performed in the fifth and sixth month. The entire infant is delivered except the head. Scissors are jammed into the base of the skull. A tube is inserted into the skull, and the brain is sucked out. The now-dead infant is pulled out.

Obama, in his own words:

"On an issue like partial birth abortion, I strongly believe that the state can properly restrict late-term abortions. I have said so repeatedly. All I've said is we should have a provision to protect the health of the mother, and many of the bills that came before me didn't have that. Part of the reason they didn't have it was purposeful, because those who are opposed to abortion have a moral calling to try to oppose what they think is immoral. Oftentimes what they were trying to do was to polarize the debate and make it more difficult for people, so that they could try to bring an end to abortions overall."

McCain, in his own words:

Partial-birth abortion is "hideous [and] should never be allowed any place on earth...Banning partial-birth abortions goes far beyond traditional pro-life or pro-choice views. No matter what your personal opinion regarding the legalization of abortion, we should all be appalled and outraged by the practice of partial-birth abortions. This procedure is inhumane and extremely brutal entailing the partial delivery of a healthy baby who is then killed by having its vibrant brain stabbed and suctioned out of the skull...This is simply barbaric...Life means the rights of the born and the unborn."

Since 2005, desperate Sudanese from the Darfur region have sought safety in Israel...the only surrounding country that has shown compassion for their plight. And thousands have made it to safety there...those fortunate enough to make it past the Egyptian military, that is...

Why is that? Well, Islamist Arabs run Sudan and they consistently persecute Black Muslims and Christians. These Arab Muslim governments (Egypt & Sudan) have great animosity for Israel and don't truly consider African Muslims to be true Muslims. Therefore, they make every attempt to prevent any refugees from entering the Jewish State...and would rather see the refugees dead (and that's including women and children) than safe among the Jews.

Where's the compassion? An apparent lack of it is endemic to Muslim nations, easily evidenced by their history. The oil-wealthy Muslim nations give bupkiss to the World Food Program, the Arab neighbors of Israel created the 'palestinian' refugee problem and cease to give even the smallest lot of land as a home to their brethren, and so on...

How about some UN condemnation of these Muslim governments for their genocidal hatred and merciless actions. There's as much of a chance of that, as there is of the UN commending Israel...for anything.

Shalom.

Facts: 

Drilling today is cleaner than 'Mother Nature'. 99.999 percent cleaner. According to the US Minerals Management Service, some 620,500 barrels of oil ooze organically from North America's ocean floors each year. Contrast this with the average 6,555 barrels that oil companies have spilled annually since 1998. 'Mother Nature' is clearly 95 times dirtier than mankind. 

Obama's position, in his own words: 

"Making sure your tires are properly inflated – simple thing. But we could save all the oil that they're talking about getting off drilling – if everybody was just inflating their tires? And getting regular tune-ups? You'd actually save just as much!"

McCain's position, in his own words:

"We must embark on a national mission to eliminate our dependence on foreign oil...we have untapped oil reserves of at least 21 billion barrels in the United States. But a broad federal moratorium stands in the way of energy exploration and production. . . . It is time for the federal government to lift these restrictions."

Now you know.
