Mullah Obama Imports More Muslims. . . .
According to Van Helsing at moonbattery.com:
Apparently illegal aliens aren't pouring over the deliberately undefended border quickly enough, because Comrade Obama is importing more Democrat votes from abroad. Some of his most loyal supporters are from Muslim countries, so this should come as no surprise:
President Barack Hussein Obama, in a determination letter to Congress, has announced that he will allow an additional 80,000 immigrants — mostly from Islamic countries — to resettle in the United States during fiscal year 2011.
Mr. Obama says that the increase in Muslim immigrants "is justified by humanitarian concerns or is otherwise in the national interest."
This certainly won't serve the "national interest" by alleviating the stratospheric unemployment rate, but it will help Democrats' chances at the polls, especially considering that with the Obama Administration's boot on the neck of the economy, most of these new imports will probably end up living off welfare.
Importing Muslims isn't a new idea for the Manchurian Moonbat. One of his first acts after taking control was to spend $20.3 million of our money to import Palestinians, who in turn can be counted on to import terrorism. What do you expect to happen when a country puts someone who hates it in control?
Liberals may have to temper their fondness for all things Muslim when sharia is applied against them. Via the People's Cube:
Hey, this worked out great in the UK, didnt it? Amerkstan, here we come! The best way to invade a country is immigrate, procreate like crazy and change the government and society to suit your culture, from within.
Being a practicing Muslim means you have a duty to work toward the establishment of a Sharia-complient legal code. Sharia law is utterly incompatible with the basic freedoms guaranteed in U.S. Constitution. Therefore, our President is deliberately importing 80,000 people who will work towards the overthrow of the Consitution he has sworn to uphold.

No need to cover the token conservative Elisabeth Hasselbeck. Burkas on the rest of the harridans would prove Allah is indeed merciful.

Obama and the democrats aren't happy just allowing illegals to infiltrate our great Nation, now we are importing future terrorist on purpose. . . .WTF?

Did First Lady Michelle Obama Violate Illinois Election Law?
According to theblaze.com:
First Lady Michelle Obama stopped in at the Martin Luther King Center on Chicago’s south side Thursday to cast her early vote for the upcoming November midterm elections. But reports from the scene suggest Mrs. Obama may have engaged in political discussion at the polling place — a big no-no according to state election law.
According to a flash story on the Drudge Report, Mrs. Obama finished casting her ballot and stopped to take pictures with residents. It was at this time that electrician Dennis Campbell, 56, says the First Lady inappropriately lobbied for support of her husband’s administration.
“She was telling me how important it was to vote to keep her husband’s agenda going,” Campbell said.
Drudge also points to another witness — a pool reporter — who says the entire conversation took place inside the voting center near the booths.
Illinois state law — Sec. 17-29 (a) — states: “No judge of election, pollwatcher, or other person shall, at any primary or election, do any electioneering or soliciting of votes or engage in any political discussion within any polling place, within 100 feet of any polling place.”
Responding to the report Thursday afternoon, White House press secretary Robert Gibbs reportedly defended the First Lady’s actions. “I don’t think it would be much to imagine, the First Lady might support her husband’s agenda,” Gibbs said.

Prosecute Michelle Obama?

Don’t hold your breath—as I understand it Eric Holder doesn’t prosecute Blacks that violate voting laws–only Whites.

Back in the day I was almost kicked out of a Texas voting precinct for just trying to explain to my small children the voting process. . . . .I guess this is another example where you "don't mess with Texas" :) :)

Breaking News! Harry Reid Saves The World?
Here's what some bloggers wrote:
In a world on the edge of disaster. With all hope gone. When everyone else could do nothing. When the people needed a hero more than ever. Their prayers were answered. Harry Reid is that hero. Not a humble hero. Not a very smart hero A hero filled with self glorification Yes his policies gave nevada 14% unemployment , children in debt before they are born and tens of thousands without homes. He may not be a hero to you but to the left he is a hero indeed.
Awesome. Al Gore invented the internet and Harry Reid saved the world. How comforting.
------------------------------------------
Harry better be worrying about saving his own ass. . . .Looks like he just might be among the 15 million unemployed Americans come Tuesday. . . .

States Weigh Letting Non-Citizens Vote. . . .WTF?
According to foxnews.com:
PORTLAND, Maine -- Like his neighbors, Claude Rwaganje pays taxes on his income and taxes on his cars. His children have gone to Portland's public schools. He's interested in the workings of Maine's largest city, which he has called home for 13 years.
There's one vital difference, though: Rwaganje isn't a U.S. citizen and isn't allowed to vote on those taxes or on school issues. That may soon change.
Portland residents will vote Nov. 2 on a proposal to give legal residents who are not U.S. citizens the right to vote in local elections, joining places like San Francisco and Chicago that have already loosened the rules or are considering it.
Noncitizens hold down jobs, pay taxes, own businesses, volunteer in the community and serve in the military, and it's only fair they be allowed to vote, Rwaganje said.
"We have immigrants who are playing key roles in different issues of this country, but they don't get the right to vote," said Rwaganje, 40, who moved to the U.S. because of political strife in his native Congo and runs a nonprofit that offers financial advice to immigrants.
Opponents of the measure say immigrants already have an avenue to cast ballots -- by becoming citizens. Allowing noncitizens to vote dilutes the meaning of citizenship, they say, adding that it could lead to fraud and unfairly sway elections. . . . .
. . . . .Abdirizak Daud, 40, moved to Minneapolis 18 years ago before coming to Portland in 2006. He hasn't been able to find a job. Some of his nine children have attended Portland schools, and he'd like to have a say in who's looking over the school system and the city, he said.
But between his limited English and the financial demands, Daud hasn't been able to become a citizen.
"I like the Democrats. I want to vote for Democrats, but I don't have citizenship," he said
-----------------------------------
Here's what some bloggers had to say:
"But between his limited English and the financial demands, Daud hasn't been able to become a citizen." How can you live in a country for 18 years an can barely speak the langauge? "I like the Democrats. I want to vote for Democrats, but I don't have citizenship," he said, Translation, democrats give me free things things that I did not earn and do not deserve.
Our nation needs to be decided by its citizens and naturalized citizens...ONLY! anyone else is foreign influence and is akin to giving up National Sovereignty.
ABSOLUTELY NOT! Who the hell do these people think they are? Aliens in OUR country, agitating for political rights of citizenship, SHOULD be deported without opportunity of re-entry!
Where in the world does a nation invite non-citizens to control their government? and how long will the US survive, if we let this happen?
This is our f**king country, and OUR citizens are the only ones entitled to vote. What kind of insane crap is this?? Can we go vote in Cuba or Venezuela??
---------------------------------
Now that the blood has quit squirting out of my eyes from the insanity of this whole idea I will make a comment. This is exactly why the democrats are for illegals. . . .the VOTE. . . .
Being an American Citizen and being able to vote is one of the few rights we have left. . . .Most states can't even get the ballots to our Military in time so they can cast their vote in elections, but prisoners and dead people manage to cast votes in some states. How the HELL will they be able to determine which illegals can vote. Can a tourist visiting from China vote too?
If these illegal f*ckers want to vote so bad deport them and they can vote in their own corrupt countries.
This must be what Obama meant when he said "We are citizens of the WORLD"
This is TOTAL INSANITY.
--------------------------------------
Here's another piss you off voting story:
Disgrace: Illinois Prisoners Get Ballots, Soldiers Don't
RUSH: We had a caller say earlier that the Chicago Board of Elections hand-delivered ballots to inmates in jail, but we're late in sending ballots to our troops overseas. Well, I have confirmation of this. The Chicago Board of Elections does hand deliver ballots to the jail. They don't even wait for the inmates to apply for 'em. They just hand deliver 'em. They bring the applications with the ballots. Over 2,600 inmates have cast ballots so far. It's almost identical to the number of military men and women who will not receive a ballot in time to vote next Tuesday, so our caller was exactly right. "Disgraceful" does not begin to describe the Illinois election system. "Disgraceful" doesn't even scratch the surface. So thanks to Shirley, our caller, for pointing this out.

Mountains of Our Money to Be Poured Down Fannie and Freddie. . . .
According to Van Helsing at moonbattery.com:
Our liberal rulers, who brought about the 2008 financial crisis with Affirmative Action "affordable housing" policies that forced banks to make bad loans under the insane Community Reinvestment Act, and by blocking Republican attempts to reform Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, have done nothing whatsoever to prevent the disaster from recurring on a still larger scale — as it soon will:
The federal bailout for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could nearly double in size during the next three years, according to projections from the companies' federal regulator.
Fannie and Freddie, the federally controlled mortgage finance giants, will need as much as $215 billion more from taxpayers in the next three years to meet their financial obligations, the Federal Housing Finance Agency said Thursday…
The growing taxpayer infusions will cover losses Fannie and Freddie suffer on home loans, as well as payments the companies must make to the U.S. Treasury in exchange for a federal guarantee to provide cash to keep the companies solvent. …
To date, the Treasury has injected $148 billion into Fannie and Freddie, $13 billion of which has been returned to the government. Under the worst case, in which the country enters a second recession, the total infusion would be $363 billion in three years.
As a red diaper baby who has spent his entire life steeping in radical left ideology, Obama could not help but be aware of the Cloward-Piven strategy, which calls for collapsing the economy with excessive government spending, thereby paving the way for the imposition of totalitarian collectivism. This explains why the Redistributor in Chief has pledged unlimited taxpayer-funded support for the black holes of corruption, communism, and incompetence known as Fannie and Freddie.

Taiwanese bride bemoans lack of men and marries herself. . . .
According to myfoxorlando.com:
(NewsCore) - A Taiwanese woman left uninspired by the standard of men on offer in her city will finally tie the knot -- with herself, Shanghai Daily reported early Saturday.
Chen Wei-yih has bought a flowing white bridal grown, planned a lavish reception and even hired a wedding photographer to mark her unusual matrimony, which takes place next month
Lonely Chen, 30, told local media she was urged to wed by friends and loved ones but could not find a decent husband in Taipei, Taiwan's largest city.
The solo marriage will not be recognized in law but Chen has the backing of her family.
"My work and experience are in good shape, but I haven't found a partner, so what can I do?" she sighed.
"I'm not anti-marriage. I just hope that I can express a different idea within the bounds of a tradition."
---------------------------------
WTF? I guess she will be able to fulfill the "In Sickness and In Health Till Death Do Us Part" marriage vow. . . .hahahahahaha

Texas Rally Cry! The Story of the Rangers' Claw and Antlers. . . .
If you're wondering what the heck the "Claw and Antlers" has to do with the Texas Rangers read on:
According to Janet Kessler at bleacherreport.com:
Texas Rally Cry! The Story of the Rangers' Claw and Antlers
The Bear Claw became the symbol of strength and power—it was displayed after a base hit when a player safely reached base. Even a successful sacrifice fly would earn a show of the claw. We, the fans, would shower the Claw on our pitchers making that punch-out, strike-out happen, too.
The Antlers simply mean speed and agility—they are earned by stretching a base run into extra bases or a by stealing a base. Ranger fielders would be rewarded the Antler by the fans in the stands for a heads-up play on defense.

ToThose of Us Born 1930-1979 . . . .
(Received this in an email. . . .Enjoy)
READ TO THE BOTTOM FOR QUOTE OF THE MONTH BY JAY LENO. IF YOU DON'T READ ANYTHING ELSE---VERY WELL STATED TO ALL THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED the 1930's, 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's!!
First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant.
They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can, and didn't get tested for diabetes.
Then after that trauma, we were put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with bright colored lead-based paints.
We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had no helmets, not to mention, the risks we took hitchhiking.
As infants & children, we would ride in cars with no car seats, booster seats, seat belts or air bags.
Riding in the back of a pick up on a warm day was always a special treat.
We drank water from the garden hose and NOT from a bottle.
We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and NO ONE actually died from this.
We ate cupcakes, white bread and real butter and drank Kool-aid made with sugar, but we were not overweight because, WE WERE ALWAYS OUTSIDE PLAYING!
We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on.
No one was able to reach us all day. And we were O.K.
We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes. After running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the problem.
We did not have Play Stations, Nintendo's, X-boxes, no video games at all, no 150 channels on cable, no video movies or DVD's, no surround-sound or CD's, no cell phones, no personal computers, no internet or chat rooms.......
WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!
We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no lawsuits from these accidents.
We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever.
We were given BB guns for our 10th birthdays, made up games with sticks and tennis balls and, although we were told it would happen, we did not put out very many eyes.
We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them!
Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment. Imagine that!!
The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law!
These generations have produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers and inventors ever!
The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas. We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned HOW TO DEAL WITH IT ALL!
If YOU are one of them...CONGRATULATIONS!
You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids, before the lawyers and the government regulated so much of our lives for our own good...
While you are at it, forward it to your kids so they will know how brave (and lucky) their/our parents were.
The quote of the month is by Jay Leno:
"With hurricanes, tornados, fires out of control, mud slides, flooding, severe thunderstorms tearing up the country from one end to another, and with the threat of bird flu and terrorist attacks, are we sure this is a good time to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance?"

Is Social Security Broke?
15 Of Last 25 Months The US Treasury Had To Borrow For Social Security Payments
According to Robb Port at sayanythingblog.com:
Every time conservatives sound the alarm on Social Security, saying that’s a ponzi scheme that’s quickly reaching the point of collapse, we are poo-poo’ed by the liberals and their allies in the media. They say that we’re just fear-mongering, and that Social Security is solvent and not in crisis.
They also talk of a Social Security trust fund that can go on paying benefits for some time. The problem? The Social Security trust fund is an illusion, just words on paper, and the reality is that we’re already borrowing money to pay out Social Security benefits:
(CNSNews.com) – The U.S. Treasury has needed to borrow money to pay Social Security benefits in 15 out of the last 25 months on record because the Social Security system was in deficit in those months, with the cost of monthly benefit payments exceeding the Social Security tax revenues flowing into the Old Age, Survivors and Disability Insurance trust funds, according to data published by the Social Security Administration.
Because the overall federal budget was in deficit during this entire period, the surplus revenues Social Security earned in the remaining 10 months of the last 25 was used during those months to pay ongoing general government expenses and was not saved to pay future Social Security benefits.
The government gave the Social Security trust funds IOUs for this money.
IOUs. Lovely.
Nothing says “there is no crisis” like Congress giving IOUs it can’t pay for to the nation’s biggest entitlement program.

I've paid into Social Security for over 30+ years and I will be lucky if I get to start collecting anything before I'm 75, and all you youngins out there. . . .You can forget it. . . .When you look at your paystub and see that deduction that shows FICA - Social Security. . . .I can guarantee you will NEVER receive a penny of that money for use in your retirement.
Back in the day companies offered a "retirement pension" to employees as an incentive. Now about the only jobs you can get with a retirement is taypayer funded city, state or government jobs. Companies decided why should they invest in their employees future when their employees will eventually be receiving Social Security.
We are going to be seeing this same thing happen with healthcare. . . .In the next decade employers are going to quit offering medical benefits, because of Obamacare. . . .Just wait and see. . . .
I have said it OVER AND OVER AND OVER again when the government interferes nobody wins. . . .

James Cameron Wants You to Lower Your Standard of Living. . . .
According to Van Helsing at moonbattery.com:
It's easy to endorse coercive poverty in the name of the polar bears when you're rich beyond the imagination of czars — and hypocritical beyond belief:
James Cameron is just a typical liberal democrat. . . . .They want to "spread the wealth around" as long as its not their wealth. . . . .Just more "do as I say. . . .not as I do" bullshit . . . .

House Taken Over. . . .
According to Van Helsing at moonbattery.com:
Britons thinking of going away for vacation might want to reconsider. With liberal ideology having rotted society to the point that it no longer functions, who will defend your house while you're gone?
In the middle of completely refurbishing his five-bedroom house, Connan Gupta felt he deserved a week off.
It is a decision he is now regretting because 15 squatters took advantage of his short absence to occupy the £700,000 property.
The jobless Italians changed the locks and have taken up residence along with their three dogs and two cats.
They claim the fact they cannot afford to rent gives them the right to take over the Victorian property in Camberwell, South-East London.
Police are powerless to intervene because squatting is a civil rather than criminal offence.
Apparently trespassing and burglary are no longer considered offenses at all in the decomposing remnants of Once-Great Britain.
Gasps Gupta:
"It's as if the squatters have more rights than I do."
But of course they do. Property — the concept that makes civilization possible — is theft, according to progressives.
They have turned the front room into a sixth bedroom and are using Mr Gupta's wardrobes to store their clothes. They are also making use of his three leather sofas, sauna, hundreds of DVDs and television.
Under pure anarchy, Gupta could at least attempt to liberate his home by force. But liberalism is a hybrid of the worst aspects of anarchy and communism. The only good thing to be said about it is that nothing so obviously insane can last very long.
----------------------------------------
Here's what some bloggers had to say:
It is happening here in L.A. - A neighbor who owns a house but doesn't live in it has had squatters break in and refuse to leave. The police are VERY reluctant to do anything about it for fear of the city being sued.
These criminals have trashed a house, trespassed, broken and entered, stolen property AND WE ARE POWERLESS TO DO ANYTHING. (If it were my property, my Remington 870 would reverse the balance of power real quick.)
This is why we must destroy progressives...NOW...while there is still time. Fairness, in their world, only works one way. Just ask Juan Williams.
Someone breaks into my house and they're going be in for a rather nasty case of severe lead poisoning.

Texas has a "Castle Doctrine" law, so these bums better not "Mess With Texas. . . .
A Castle Doctrine (also known as a Castle Law or a Defense of Habitation Law) is an American legal doctrine claimed by advocates to arise from English Common Law[1] that designates one's place of residence (or, in some states, any place legally occupied, such as one's car or place of work) as a place in which one enjoys protection from illegal trespassing and violent attack. It then goes on to give a person the legal right to use deadly force to defend that place (his/her "castle"), and/or any other innocent persons legally inside it, from violent attack or an intrusion which may lead to violent attack. In a legal context, therefore, use of deadly force which actually results in death may be defended as justifiable homicide under the Castle Doctrine.

"I'm 63 and I'm Tired"
(Received in an email. . . .This article is long but it's one of the best I have ever read that supports America)
This should be required reading for every man, woman and child in the United States of America .
"I'm 63 and I'm Tired" by Robert A. Hall - former Massachusetts Senator and US Marine
Except for one semester in college when jobs were scarce and a six-month period when I was between jobs, but job-hunting every day, I've worked, hard, since I was 18. Despite some health challenges, I still put in 50-hour weeks, and haven't called in sick in seven or eight years. I make a good salary, but I didn't inherit my job or my income, and I worked to get where I am. Given the economy, there's no retirement in sight, and I'm tired. Very tired.
I'm tired of being told that I have to "spread the wealth" to people who don't have my work ethic. I'm tired of being told the government will take the money I earned, by force if necessary, and give it to people too lazy to earn it.
I'm tired of being told that I have to pay more taxes to "keep people in their homes." Sure, if they lost their jobs or got sick, I'm willing to help. But if they bought McMansions at three times the price of our paid-off, $250,000 condo, on one-third of my salary, then let the left-wing Congress-critters who passed Fannie and Freddie and the Community Reinvestment Act that created the bubble help them with their own money.
I'm tired of being told how bad America is by left-wing millionaires like Michael Moore, George Soros and Hollywood Entertainers who live in luxury because of the opportunities America offers. In thirty years, if they get their way, the United States will have the economy of Zimbabwe , the freedom of the press of China , the crime and violence of Mexico , the tolerance for Christian people of Iran , and the freedom of speech of Venezuela .
I'm tired of being told that Islam is a "Religion of Peace," when every day I can read dozens of stories of Muslim men killing their sisters, wives and daughters for their family "honor"; of Muslims rioting over some slight offense; of Muslims murdering Christian and Jews because they aren't "believers"; of Muslims burning schools for girls; of Muslims stoning teenage rape victims to death for "adultery"; of Muslims mutilating the genitals of little girls; all in the name of Allah, because the Qur'an and Shari'a law tells them to.
I'm tired of being told that "race doesn't matter" in the post-racial world of Obama, when it's all that matters in affirmative action jobs, lower college admission and graduation standards for minorities (harming them the most), government contract set-asides, tolerance for the ghetto culture of violence and fatherless children that hurts minorities more than anyone, and in the appointment of U.S. Senators from Illinois.
I think it's very cool that we have a black president and that a black child is doing her homework at the desk where Lincoln wrote the Emancipation Proclamation. I just wish the black president was Condi Rice, or someone who believes more in freedom and the individual and less arrogantly of an all-knowing government.
I'm tired of being told that out of "tolerance for other cultures" we must let Saudi Arabia use our oil money to fund mosques and mandrassa Islamic schools to preach hate in America , while no American group is allowed to fund a church, synagogue or religious school in Saudi Arabia to teach love and tolerance.
I'm tired of being told I must lower my living standard to fight global warming, which no one is allowed to debate. My wife and I live in a two-bedroom apartment and carpool together five miles to our jobs. We also own a three-bedroom condo where our daughter and granddaughter live. Our carbon footprint is about 5% of Al Gore's, and if you're greener than Gore, you're green enough.
I'm tired of being told that drug addicts have a disease, and I must help support and treat them, and pay for the damage they do. Did a giant germ rush out of a dark alley, grab them, and stuff white powder up their noses while they tried to fight it off? I damn sure think druggies chose to take drugs. And I'm tired of harassment from cool people treating me like a freak when I tell them I never tried marijuana.
I'm tired of illegal aliens being called "undocumented workers," especially the ones who aren't working, but are living on welfare or crime. What's next? Calling drug dealers, "Undocumented Pharmacists"? And, no, I'm not against Hispanics. Most of them are Catholic, and it's been a few hundred years since Catholics wanted to kill me for my religion. I'm willing to fast track for citizenship any Hispanic person, who can speak English, doesn't have a criminal record and who is self-supporting without family on welfare, or who serves honorably for three years in our military.... Those are the citizens we need.
I'm tired of latte liberals and journalists, who would never wear the uniform of the Republic themselves, or let their entitlement-handicapped kids near a recruiting station, trashing our military. They and their kids can sit at home, never having to make split-second decisions under life and death circumstances, and bad mouth better people than themselves. Do bad things happen in war? You bet. Do our troops sometimes misbehave? Sure. Does this compare with the atrocities that were the policy of our enemies for the last fifty years and still are? Not even close. So here's the deal. I'll let myself be subjected to all the humiliation and abuse that was heaped on terrorists at Abu Ghraib or Gitmo, and the critics can let themselves be subject to captivity by the Muslims, who tortured and beheaded Daniel Pearl in Pakistan, or the Muslims who tortured and murdered Marine Lt. Col. William Higgins in Lebanon, or the Muslims who ran the blood-spattered Al Qaeda torture rooms our troops found in Iraq, or the Muslims who cut off the heads of schoolgirls in Indonesia, because the girls were Christian. Then we'll compare notes. British, Canadian and American soldiers are the only troops in history that civilians came to for help and handouts, instead of hiding from in fear.
I'm tired of people telling me that their party has a corner on virtue and the other party has a corner on corruption. Read the papers; bums are bipartisan. And I'm tired of people telling me we need bipartisanship. I live in Illinois , where the "Illinois Combine" of Democrats has worked to loot the public for years. Not to mention the tax cheats in Obama's cabinet.
I'm tired of hearing wealthy athletes, entertainers and politicians of both parties talking about innocent mistakes, stupid mistakes or youthful mistakes, when we all know they think their only mistake was getting caught. I'm tired of people with a sense of entitlement, rich or poor.
Speaking of poor, I'm tired of hearing people with air-conditioned homes, color TVs and two cars called poor. The majority of Americans didn't have that in 1970, but we didn't know we were "poor." The poverty pimps have to keep changing the definition of poor to keep the dollars flowing.
I'm real tired of people who don't take responsibility for their lives and actions. I'm tired of hearing them blame the government, or discrimination or big-whatever for their problems.
Yes, I'm damn tired. But I'm also glad to be 63. Because, mostly, I'm not going to have to see the world these people are making. I'm just sorry for my granddaughter.

Political Correctness Run Amok Costs Juan Williams His Job at NPR. . . .
Political Correctness Run Amok Costs Juan Williams His Job at NPR
RUSH: I guess, folks, we just can't call 'em Muslims anymore because you can't say anything about Muslims. I mean if Juan Williams gets canned from NPR for being truthfully honest, open about -- well, we're going to have to start calling 'em Middle Eastern liberals. Yeah, a friend of mine sent me that suggestion. No longer call 'em Muslim. The Middle Eastern liberals today stoned a woman in Iran. The Middle Eastern liberals today plotted a plan to blow up buildings in Karachi.
Let me remind you of something that our president, Imam Obama, said once. "The point I was making was not that my grandmother harbors any racial animosity. She doesn't. But she is a typical white person who, uh, if she sees somebody on the street she doesn't know, there's a reaction that's been bred into her, our experiences, that don't go away, sometimes come out in the wrong way and that's just the nature of race in our society. We have to break through it." So it was okay for Obama to say she was a typical white person, his grandmother, 'cause she gets afraid of black guys on the street. It's okay for Obama to say that 'cause he wasn't saying it on NPR. Well, he probably said it on NPR but he was not employed by NPR. Here's what Juan said, by the way. This is Monday night on Ted Baxter's (Bill O'Reilly) show.
WILLIAMS: Political correctness can lead to some kind of paralyses where you don't address reality. I'm not a bigot. You know the books I have written about the civil rights movement in this country, but when I get on a plane, I gotta tell you, if I see people who are in Muslim garb and I think they're identifying themselves first and foremost as Muslims, I get worried, I get nervous. Now, I remember also that when the Times Square bomber was in court, I think this was just last week, he said the war with Muslims, America's war with Muslims, is just beginning, the first drop of blood. I don't think there's any way to get away from these facts.
----------------------------------------
Rush quotes on Juan Williams:
"Juan Williams is a known quantity, and he's essentially been Clarence Thomased, in a sense, for voicing an opinion that is contrary to the doctrine. It will be interesting to see if the Reverend Jackson and Reverend Sharpton let this go by in silence."
"I guess, folks, we just can't call them Muslims anymore. I mean, if Juan Williams gets canned from NPR for being honest, well, we're going to have to start calling them Middle Eastern liberals."
----------------------------------------
Have the liberals gone totally insane. . . .Anybody in their right mind ought to be fearful when they get on a plane and "see people who are in muslim garb". . . .I know I'd probably piss my pants if I heard one holler "allah akbar". . . . .
BTW. . . .muslims themselves ought to be afraid when they "see people who are in muslim garb" it seems like on a weekly basis we read where some muslim suicide bomber has blown up a mosque or some other muslim business. . . .

Google Rips Off American Taxpayers. . . .
Google 2.4% Rate Shows How $60 Billion Lost to Tax Loopholes
According to bloomberg.com:
Google Inc. cut its taxes by $3.1 billion in the last three years using a technique that moves most of its foreign profits through Ireland and the Netherlands to Bermuda.
Google’s income shifting -- involving strategies known to lawyers as the “Double Irish” and the “Dutch Sandwich” -- helped reduce its overseas tax rate to 2.4 percent, the lowest of the top five U.S. technology companies by market capitalization, according to regulatory filings in six countries.
“It’s remarkable that Google’s effective rate is that low,” said Martin A. Sullivan, a tax economist who formerly worked for the U.S. Treasury Department. “We know this company operates throughout the world mostly in high-tax countries where the average corporate rate is well over 20 percent.”
The U.S. corporate income-tax rate is 35 percent. In the U.K., Google’s second-biggest market by revenue, it’s 28 percent.
Google, the owner of the world’s most popular search engine, uses a strategy that has gained favor among such companies as Facebook Inc. and Microsoft Corp. The method takes advantage of Irish tax law to legally shuttle profits into and out of subsidiaries there, largely escaping the country’s 12.5 percent income tax.
-------------------------------------
Isn't it ironic how these billion dollar companies like Google and Microsoft that slant to the left and contribute mega bucks to democrats want to rip off the American taxpayer by basically laundering their money through foreign countries. . . .
This is exactly why the democrats don't mind raising taxes on hard working Americans. . . .They know they won't have to pay it.

'Smell of frying bacon offends Muslims'
Cafe owner ordered to remove extractor fan because neighbour claimed 'smell of frying bacon offends Muslims'
According to the dailymail.co.uk:
A hard-working cafe owner has been ordered to tear down an extractor fan - because the smell of her frying bacon 'offends' Muslims.
Planning bosses acted against Beverley Akciecek, 49, after being told her next-door neighbour's Muslim friends had felt 'physically sick' due to the 'foul odour'.
Councillors at Stockport Council in Greater Manchester say the smell from the fan is 'unacceptable on the grounds of residential amenity'*.
--------------------------------------------
What happens in the UK today will happen in the US in a few years if we don't stop bowing to every little whim of the muslims. . . .We need to STOP this madness NOW.
Makes you wonder why the US has wasted billions of dollars on weapons in Iraq and Afghanistan when all we needed to do was toss a few pork chops and bacon slices at the enemy. . . .
--------------------------------------------
*Residential amenity refers to those aspects that impact on the quality of residential areas and so is important in achieving a sustainable city. The amenity of an area can be affected by such things as building construction and commercial activities.

Illegal Texas Terrorist ONLY Gets 24 Years. . . .
According to the dallasobserver.com:
For Trying to Blow Up Fountain Place, Hosam Smadi's Sentenced to 24 Years in Prison
According to documents filed, on September 24, 2009, Smadi knowingly took possession of a truck that contained a weapon of mass destruction, specifically a destructive device or bomb. The truck with the bomb inside was a vehicle borne improvised explosive device. Smadi believed that this was an active weapon of mass destruction, and while it was inert when Smadi took possession of it, it was a readily-convertible weapon of mass destruction.
Smadi knowingly drove the truck containing the bomb to Fountain Place, a 60-story public office building located at 1445 Ross Avenue in Dallas, and parked it in the public parking garage under the building. After parking the truck, Smadi activated a timer connected to the device, locked the truck, and walked away. Smadi walked out of the parking garage, crossed the street and got into a car with an undercover law enforcement agent. They drove a safe distance away and prepared to watch the explosion. Smadi, who believed the bomb would explode and cause extensive damage, used a cell phone to remotely activate the device.
------------------------------------
One blogger wrote:
He's getting off way too light. He deserves the death penalty for parking what he thought was a live truck bomb and then finding a good spot to watch it explode, taking down an office tower with thousands of innocent civilians inside. He'll be 44-years-old and still dangerous when he gets out. Hopefully he'll say the wrong thing to someone in the slammer.
------------------------------------
WTF? Only 24 years in prison and deportation for attempting to blow up a skyscraper in Dallas, Texas. Hosam Smadi will be just like the terrorist released from Guantanamo Bay, in 2034 he will be able to join the other jihadists who want to destroy America.

Reagan vs the Anti-Reagan on Healthcare. . . .

The nice thing about being on the side of good is you don't have to obfuscate and prevaricate. Reagan stood for freedom. Comrade Obama stands for a murky swamp of euphemisms and lies.

Merkel says German multicultural society has failed. . . .
According to bigfurhat at iowntheworld.com:
Attempts to build a multicultural society in Germany have “utterly failed”, Chancellor Angela Merkel says.
She said the so-called “multikulti” concept – where people would “live side-by-side” happily – did not work, and immigrants needed to do more to integrate – including learning German.The comments come amid rising anti-immigration feeling in Germany.
A recent survey suggested more than 30% of people believed the country was “overrun by foreigners”.
The study – by the Friedrich Ebert Foundation think-tank – also showed that roughly the same number thought that some 16 million of Germany’s immigrants or people with foreign origins had come to the country for its social benefits.
-------------------------------------------
When are Americans going to elect politicians with the cajones to stand up and tell the truth like Angela Merkel did in Germany. Immigrants and especially illegals DO NOT want to integrate into American society they want us to change to their way of life. . . .If foreigners think their home countries are so damned great why did they come to America to begin with?

Obama Continues to Omit ‘Creator’ From Declaration of Independence. . . .
During a speech Monday, President Barack Obama once again omitted the Declaration of Independence‘s mention of man’s “Creator” as the source of his “unalienable rights.” While delivering remarks at a dinner fundraiser for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) in Rockville, Md., President Obama spoke about what he called the “essence” of the upcoming midterm election:
As wonderful as the land is here in the United States, as much as we have been blessed by the bounty of this magnificent continent that stretches from the Atlantic to the Pacific, what makes this place special is not something physical. It has to do with this idea that was started by 13 colonies that decided to throw off the yoke of an empire, and said, “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that each of us are endowed with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”
The sole mention of man‘s Creator in Obama’s remarks came at the end when he thanked the audience and said, “God bless you.”
--------------------------------------------
You would think someone that taught courses in Constitutional Law at the University of Chicago wouldn't keep making this same mistake. . . .Unless of course. . . . .He's doing it ON PURPOSE ! ! !

Comrade Obama's Shovel-Ready Project. . . .
According to Van Helsing at moonbattery:
At last, a little transparency from the Obama Regime. After spending $1 trillion that we don't have on shovel-ready projects, he admits that they do not exist. To quote the Taxer and Spender in Chief:
"[T]here's no such thing as shovel-ready projects."
Great. So can we have our $1,000,000,000,000 back? I didn't think so.
Jonah Goldberg comments:
Back in early 2009, President-elect Barack Obama was asked on Meet the Press how quickly he could create jobs. Oh, very fast, he said. He'd already consulted with a gaggle of governors, and "all of them have projects that are shovel-ready." When Obama revealed the members of his energy team, he explained that they were part of his effort to get started on "shovel-ready projects all across the country." When he unveiled his education secretary, he assured everyone that he was going to get started "helping states and local governments with shovel-ready projects."
In interviews, job summits, and press conferences, it was shovel-ready this, shovel-ready that. Search the White House website for the term "shovel-ready" and you'll drown in press releases about all the shovels ready to shove shovel-ready projects into the 21st century, where no shovel is left behind. …
It's not that Obama was lying when he said all that stuff. It's just that he didn't know what he was talking about. All it took was nearly a trillion dollars in stimulus money and 20-plus months of on-the-job training for him to discover that he was talking nonsense.
Goldberg is too kind when accuses Obama of gross incompetence. The Manchurian Moonbat isn't even trying to be competent.

Governor Moonbeam Offers Free College for Illegal Aliens. . . .
Posted by Van Helsing at moonbattery.com:
Fortunately it will only take Jerry Brown "a couple of months" to solve California's potentially catastrophic budget crisis, because he is eager to move on to the pressing business of making the crisis even worse by offering free everything to everyone at everyone else's expense. Here he takes hispandering to the extreme of implying that illegal aliens will be provided with free college education:

Jerry Brown wants illegals to be able to get a free college education in California, but an American student from another state would still have to pay outrageous out-of-state tuition. . . . .Go figure that logic. . . .

Jerry Brown: "We Need More Welfare and Fewer Jobs". . . .
According to Van Helsing at moonbattery.com:
If you think the situation in California is bad now, wait until Governor Moonbeam gets reinstated. Here's his economic policy:
The conventional viewpoint says we need a jobs program and we need to cut welfare. Just the opposite! We need more welfare and fewer jobs. Jobs for every American is doomed to failure because of modern automation and production. We ought to recognize it and create an income-maintenance system so every single American has the dignity and the wherewithal for shelter, basic food, and medical care. I'm talking about welfare for all.
You see, when everyone is on welfare, we can just let robots do all the work while we sit around our government-provided homes and watch Oprah all day. Then we'll all be Democrats. Utopia!
If a certifiable lunatic like Jerry Brown is the best Dems can do for governor of the largest state in the union at a time of severe crisis, it's time for this execrable party to crawl into the dustbin of history.
----------------------------------------
Can you believe that this wannabe Governor of California wants to decrease jobs and increase welfare, what kind of lunacy is this? Without jobs and people paying taxes who is going to pay for the welfare. . . .Sorry California but if you vote this loser into power you are doomed. . . . and BTW the rest of America won't be bailing you out.

Big Government Spends Its Way Toward Anarchy. . . .
According to Van Helsing at moonbattery.com:
What happens when our liberal rulers waste so much money on useless bureaucrats' salaries, entitlement handouts, green energy boondoggles, and general senseless moonbattery that there isn't enough left to fund the legitimate functions of government? Oregonians are finding out:
The district attorney in Multnomah County, the state's most populous area with over 710,000 residents, announced recently that it can no longer prosecute dozens of crimes thanks to an ever-shrinking budget.
Caught with small amounts of heroin, cocaine or methamphetamine? It's a ticket. So's a hit-and-run accident. Small-time shoplifting? You'll still get arrested, but it's still just a violation.
For these and other lesser crimes, the district attorney will simply refuse to prosecute. …
Other crimes which the county will adjust to violation level include trespassing on non-commercial property, "theft or forgery in the second degree," harassment, interfering with a police officer, interfering with public transportation, resisting arrest (non-injury) and criminal mischief in the second degree.
Too bad they're unlikely to stop punishing those who refuse to pay their taxes. But I'm forgetting, for Obama's top henchmen, they already have.
Ironically, as Big Government expands to the point of monstrosity, streets often degenerate into anarchy — as can be seen in the prototype for the Obama Regime, Hugo Chavez's Venezuela.
---------------------------------------
I guess when our great nation is in utter chaos maybe we'll find out exactly what Obama meant by a "civilian national security force". Remember during the campaign of 2008 Obama stated "We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."
All you NRA, Second Amendment loving Americans better "keep the powder dry". We don't have a clue what is in store for us and it just might be left up to us to protect our families and property.
---------------------------------------
What does keep powder dry mean?
This phrase is used to warn of the possibility of upcoming danger. As gunpowder will not ignite when wet, you would want to be sure to keep your powder dry in case of an attack, so as not to be defenseless. Similar to "don't let your guard down," a person would use this phrase to infer one should stay prepared.

Government Lets House Burn Down. . . .
According to Van Helsing at moonbattery.com:
Why not trust government to seize control of the healthcare industry? We trust it to put out fires, don't we?
A local neighborhood is furious after firefighters watched as an Obion County, Tennessee, home burned to the ground.
The homeowner, Gene Cranick, said he offered to pay whatever it would take for firefighters to put out the flames, but was told it was too late. They wouldn't do anything to stop his house from burning.
Each year, Obion County residents must pay $75 if they want fire protection from the city of South Fulton. But the Cranicks did not pay.
The mayor said if homeowners don't pay, they're out of luck.
A private company would put out the fire promptly and then send Cranick a bill with a surcharge. To do otherwise would invite a public relations disaster. But the arrogance of our bureaucratic rulers grows with their power. Many are already too arrogant to worry about public relations disasters — or ObamaCare never would have been rammed through Congress by legislative trickery in open opposition to the public will.
-------------------------------------
Now how "f''d" up is this? I guarantee if they had called 911 and couldn't speak English the fire department would have rushed over there and put out that fire. . . .Does this podunk area have a fee for the police too? If you are having a home invasion would the police not respond if their "fee" wasn't paid?
One blogger wrote:
Hold on a second.. this is like saying I do not want health insurance until I am sick. The $75 was insurance, if they put the fire out nobody would pay the $75. be consistent.
What BULLSHIT. . . .If the doctor is staring you in the face and you are having a heart attack they have to treat you. . . .These chickenshit firefighters stood there and watched this families home and pets burn to the ground.
Another blogger wrote:
I am a volunteer firefighter. We don't work for pay, if there's a fire we PUT IT OUT! Period. I don't understand why these firemen didn't put the fire out but I can tell you my brothers and I would have. Screw the tax men right is right! I am ashamed of those firefighters.
There is a big debate going on over this incident. . . .If you paid your fee and your neighbor doesn't and they still put out your neighbors fire then you are basically bailing them out. . . .I can see both sides of this issue, but I'm leaning toward the side of putting out the fire as the #1 objective. There are many options that could be enforced afterward such as fine or even putting a lean on their property. They could also do away with the $75.00 fee all together and then you could pay as you use the service.
This homeowner was negligent by not paying the $75.00 fee, but whatever happened to honor and duty to your fellow man?
Great Quotes from El Rushbo. . . .
"Boy, how about that Meg Whitman? How about the abuse that she heaped on that illegal maid? You know, she was abusing that maid to the tune of $23 an hour. That's $920 a week. That's about $48,000 a year for nine years. I mean, that maid was just taking the abuse that American citizens won't take. Amazing abuse."
"Adults are supposed to look out for the younger generation, but Obama is ripping them off and telling them to thank him for it."
"There are people out there waiting for Obama to fix things -- not just Obama to personally fix things, but the government, too. Now, these are people who have not the slightest idea that they hold much more great power over their destiny than the government."
"Can you imagine you're Mrs. Clinton? And here comes Moochelle Obama, the number one most powerful woman in the world? And what has she done? She's had a no-show job at a hospital in Chicago, she's grown vegetables in the garden, and she's taken cool vacations."
"So there are 30 companies that, in order to provide their employees health care, need a waiver from the new Obamacare law. What does that tell us?"
"Obama doesn't make mistakes. Narcissists are not capable in their own minds of making mistakes."
"Thanks to President Obama, we're having the best race relations we've had in this country since the Rodney King beating."
"Obama's only complaint is he wants more credit for what's going on. He thinks he's revolutionary himself. He thinks he's the one we've all been waiting for. He is convinced that we don't know what's good for us -- all leftists are that way."
