EILEEN TOPLANSKY: IF I WERE BLACK I WOULD BE CRINGING WITH SHAME****

http://www.americanthinker.com/2012/04/if_i_were_black.html

If I were black, I would be cringing in shame at the latest photo of Attorney General Eric Holder praising the likes of Al Sharpton, a man on record for very odious words and vile actions.

I would hear my now-deceased grandma when she intoned that you can’t sleep with fleas and not become flea-infested — this from a woman who knew full well the effects of American racism when her husband of 50 years could get a job only as an elevator operator even though he went to Brooklyn College in the Jim Crow days of the 1940s and aspired for more. This from a petite matriarch who would quote Martin Luther King, Jr. that “[t]he Negro must work passionately and unrelentingly for full stature as a citizen, but he must not use inferior methods to gain it. He must never come to terms with falsehood, malice, hate, or destruction.”

But that is precisely what Obama, Holder, and so many of the czars of the White House do. Sharpton’s record is quite clear. Sharpton’s philosophy rests on the premise that American capitalism, racism, and imperialism are intertwined and “[are] a threat to the vital rights of the Black people.” To this end Sharpton helped incite anti-Jewish riots in Crown Heights, New York in 1991 when a Hasidic Jewish driver accidentally ran over and killed a seven-year-old black boy. Sharpton delivered the following inflammatory speech.

DIANA WEST: WHAT DO AL SHARPTON, ERIC HOLDER AND LORD AHMED HAVE IN COMMON?

The differences are greater than any similarities, but there is nontheless some overlap between the topsy-turviness of this story — Britain’s first Muslim life peer, Lord Ahmed, has placed a L10,000,000 bounty on the heads of both Presidents Obama and Bush due to the US placing a similar bounty on the head of Hafiz Saeed, founder of L-e-T — and the the topsy-turviness of the Sharpton-Holder nexus.

JED BABBIN: THE PENTAGON FORECAST

http://spectator.org/archives/2012/04/16/pentagon-forecast-the-perfect Sequestration, scheduled for January 2013, is already shutting down America’s defenses. Over the North Atlantic in 1991, several rare meteorological events occurred simultaneously combining, as Sebastian Junger wrote, into “The Perfect Storm” of massive destructive power. Next January a series of bad congressional actions — and some awful Pentagon decisions on weapon systems — […]

FLYTILLA: PREVENT ARREST AND DEPORT

http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/Op-EdContributors/Article.aspx?id=266302 DANNY DANON:In dealing with those who openly call for the destruction of the Jewish state, it is a waste of time to make ‘the case for Israel.’ The unfortunate incident which took place in the Jordan Valley on Saturday where an IDF officer was forced to fight off an anti-Israel activist has proven once […]

SARA NOBLE: AL QAEDA ATTORNEY NOW NUMBER 3 IN THE DOJ….READ ALL ABOUT HIM

Al Qaeda Attorney Becomes Number Three Man in the DOJ

Obama’s new appointee, friend and major campaign donor, Tony West, believes terrorism is a matter for criminal courts and not military tribunals. He does not believe any enemy of the United States is a terrorist. He has a history of vigorously supporting Al Qaeda terrorists and is now in charge of the GITMO terrorists’ trials. It puts him in a supervisory position of the government lawyers charged with prosecuting the terrorists.

Tony West was the aggressive defense lawyer for John Walker Lindh, the American Taliban. Despite his alarmingly vigorous and sometimes irrational defense of Lindh, Lindh is serving 20-years in prison, though it should have been life. Lindh colluded with al Qaeda in Afghanistan and took up arms against U.S. troops.

West is also a major Obama campaign bundler and has raised a great deal of money for him. His sister-in-law, Kamala Harris, is in line for the next important government job, perhaps as eventual head of the DOJ.

ALAN CARUBA: A SCATHING CRITIQUE OF OBAMA….POINT BY POINT

http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/45996

America Elected an Ignoramus Alan Caruba, NMJ.us

I do not write unpleasant things about Barack Hussein Obama because he is a Democrat, a far-left liberal ideologue, a confirmed liar, or the sock-puppet of whatever cabal that chose him long ago to be the President. I write unpleasant things because he is all of these things, but also because he is the most stupid man to have ever held the office of President.

As far back as January 2, 2010, I wrote that Obama had “an imaginary life” because there was no proof that anything he claimed in his two memoirs, written by the age of 45, was true. His resume listed “community organizer”, an amorphous term that could mean anything, as his primary occupation. By October 2010 the Washington Times published a commentary of mine that said “millions of Americans are beginning to ask: Is President Obama just a moron?”

Even prior to his election, he had ensured that his entire paper trail of birth certificates, passports, college records, and other items most people can produce in under five minutes were “sealed” from public review, despite the fact that most modern presidents have had to submit their personal records, short of a colonoscopy exam, for examination. Among his first executive orders was one issued on January 21, 2009, to ensure none of these records saw the light of day.

When he finally produced a birth certificate, forensic analysts deemed it a forgery.

So, what really occurred on Election Day in 2008 was that a majority of voters, guided by an adoring mainstream press, elected an enigma. He rewarded their obsequiousness by being the first President since Grover Cleveland to not attend their annual Gridiron dinner.

Since then, anyone paying any attention has had to conclude that Americans elected an ignoramus, based solely on his own words and actions.

STEVEN SIMPSON: THE ARAB SPRING WILL DESCEND INTO AN ISLAMIC ICE AGE

http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/46013
The West should be prepared–metaphorically speaking–to start stockpiling on heavy winter clothing. An Islamic ice age is about to descend upon us. Be prepared.

The much vaunted and praised “Arab Spring,” which took the world by surprise in December 2010, is slowly but surely turning into an Arab winter, which will inexorably become an Arab Islamic Ice Age in the near future. Already, the icicles of pan-Islamism are beginning to form throughout the Maghreb (North Africa), and the West best come to terms with the reality that the mantra of “free and fair elections” does not translate into Arabic as Western-style democracy.
Tunisia

Ironically, it is the birthplace of the “Arab Spring”—Tunisia—which is already in the midst of turning from Arab secular tyranny, into Arab Islamist domination. The largest party in the Tunisian parliament is the “moderate” Islamist party known as Ennahda (Hizb an Nahda), meaning the “Renaissance Party.” When elections were held in October 2011, the party gained a plurality of 90 seats in the 217 member Constituent Assembly.

Ennahda was formed by Rashid Ghannouchi, who after 22 years in exile, returned to a hero’s welcome in January 2011, after the overthrow of Zine El Abidine Ben Ali. Mr. Ghannouchi, who has been described as a “moderate” by many political pundits, has already called for the“end of Israel.” He has compared his party with that of Turkey’s Islamist AKP (“Justice and Development Party”) led by the Prime Minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who has practically turned Turkey into a de facto Islamic republic and brought relations with Israel to the brink of severance. Alas, the much hailed (and perhaps failed) “Jasmine Revolution” might well have paved the way for the beginning of Arab “Islamocracies.” That is, Islamic republics replacing secular pan-Arab socialist regimes, via “free and fair elections
Algeria

To the west of Tunisia is the People’s Democratic Republic of Algeria, which almost became the first Islamic republic in

WES PRUDEN; BIG DAY FOR SWISS CHEESE

http://www.prudenpolitics.com/index.php/pruden/full_column/the_big_day_for_swiss_cheese

Life is unfair, as John F. Kennedy famously observed. That might not have been the most memorable thing he ever said, but it’s probably the most quoted, and when better to repeat it than on the last day for Americans to file their federal income tax returns.

Jimmy Carter, who has mercifully all but disappeared down the memory hole, called the U.S. tax code “a disgrace to the human race.” Hitler, cancer, and the designated hitter follow closely, but we take Mr. Jimmy’s point. How the government confiscates our money, like a root canal without anything to kill the pain, is not very nice. But like a village dentist armed with only a pair of greasy pliers, the government gets the job done.

This is not a good year for a taxpayer to cut corners in calculating how much he owes, because the new director of the Internal Revenue Service decreed no more Mr. Nice Guy.
