RUTHFULLY YOURS

So unemployment is down huh? Does this give President Obama something to crow about? My brilliant e-pal Jan Poller responds so well that today it’s his say…..a note to those who still support the president…

“Your beloved President and Dear Leader has now declared that he will rule by Decree. He is going to ignore Congress and ignore the constitution.

He has helped establish the Muslim Brotherhood throughout North Africa, Gaza and elsewhere. He has allowed the Muslim Brotherhood to infiltrate the U.S. government in all its branches, even into the White House. He is promoting the Taliban in Afghanistan. He is allowing the Iranians to get nukes and establish bases in Venezuela so they can threaten our country.

Do remember what is happening to Christians throughout the Muslim world. Don’t forget that Iranians hang Gay men and Gay Palestinians seek refuge in Israel so they won’t be tortured and killed.

He us decimating the military so that we won’t be able to protect ourselves.

He is ruining our economy.

And you are helping him.

Shame on you.

Cold indifference to the plight of these women and children is what makes this exploitation possible.

Nineteen-year-old Carina Saunders of Mustang, Oklahoma, was reported missing on September 28 of 2011 though investigators found reports of people seeing her alive and well in early October. On October 13, animal welfare workers looking for feral cats found the decapitated and mutilated body of Carina in a duffel bag behind a grocery store [1]. It is believed the corpse was there several days before the gruesome discovery. Police had to initially look at her tattoos to determine an identity.

Authorities at first focused on a young “Juggalo” named Cody Perez [2], a violent ex-con who had recently pawned his set of chef’s knives and fled the area. After all, a brutal killing by a fan of the band Insane Clown Posse would just be another crime in a long list of sensational stories involving the group. But police cleared Perez after a nine week investigation with dozens of witnesses uncovered a crime that seemed to come straight out of a horror movie by a group of criminals most Americans thought were long extinct — slavers. We use the term “human traffickers” now, which sounds much more modern and urbane — as if the victims are willing cargo on some underground railroad. But the reality is that America’s modern day slave trade is as barbaric and brutal as slavery was before emancipation.

Why is Prof. Khaled Abou El Fadl, a champion of sharia law, a law professor at UCLA? More

Islamism at UCLA Law School By Jamie Glazov

My guest today is George Aaron, an alumnus and graduate of the 1976 class of the UCLA School of Law. He practices Social Security disability law in Tarzana, California. He is starting a public campaign for alumni to withhold donating money to the UCLA School of Law.

Glazov: George Aaron, thank you for taking the time out to talk about your public campaign.

Tell us about this effort you are starting to convince alumni to withhold donating money to the UCLA School of Law. It is connected to Prof. Khaled Abou El Fadl, a champion of sharia law, presently being a law professor at your law school, yes?

Bill O’Reilly ‘Obama Is No Hypocrite’ Jessica Rubin

O’REILLY IS AN ARROGANT AND POMPOUS PINHEAD WITH AN OUTSIZE EGO AND PINSIZED TALENT….RSK

Last night, in his Talking Points segment, Bill O’Reilley proclaimed that “Obama is no hypocrite.” According to O’Reilley this is the case because “Obama does what he thinks is right.”

Does what he thinks is right? That makes Obama a straight shooter? How about doing one thing and saying another? How about doing the opposite of what you promise? Maybe O’Reilly buys into the progressive motto that hypocrisy for the sake of social justice is no vice.

Here area a few of Obama’s abject hypocrisies:

http://www.memri.org/report/en/0/0/0/0/0/0/5977.htm

MEMRI reports that U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs Jeffrey Feltman published an op-ed in the English version of Al-Hayat last week, pledging the Obama administration’s commitment to reach out to Islamist political parties coming to power in the wake of the Arab Spring:

The U.S. recognizes that, in a region where public opinion matters more than ever before, we need to increase our efforts to reach out beyond the traditional government and business elites not only to articulate clearly our own goals but to listen to a wide spectrum of views. This includes reaching out to Islamist parties, who now play an important role in the political transformation of many countries in the region. We are less concerned what a political party or organization calls itself than what it does in practice, and we will reach out to those who act according to democratic principles, respect their fellow citizens’ rights, and do not use force or violence to impose their views.

The Obama administration’s new outreach Islamists is a reversal of decades of American policy. In part, the effort is a recognition of new political realities–yet it also reflects an effort that predates the Arab Spring, in which President Barack Obama cast himself as a mediator between the west and the Islamic world.
HERE IS MEMRI’S REPORT

http://israeltheviewfromhere.blogspot.com/2012/01/tale-of-palestinian-nonsense-by-barry.html
A Tale of Palestinian Nonsense by Barry Shaw.

Mahmoud Zahar, the ugly Hamas Spokesman, he’s the bearded idiot with a wart on the end of his nose, opened the new year of 2012 with the nonsense that Palestinians in Gaza are prevented from protesting peacefully because there are no Jews in Gaza to demonstrate against. That is why, he explained, they have no choice but to resort to violence. This is true. You couldn’t make this up. Not surprisingly, to those of us who follow the Palestinian narrative, this insanity is perceived as a logical and reasonable argument to Palestinians and their supporters. It appeals to Israel haters who can use this excuse to accuse Israel of human rights abuses inflicted on Palestinians for occupying Gaza from the outside, rather than the inside. Don’t even try to figure it out. You’ll only tie yourself up in A Gordian knot of maddening illogicality.

Into the Fray: It is time to have a clear-headed, hard look at reality: The two state solution is dead.
The maximum any Israeli government can offer is less than the minimum any Palestinian leader can accept. The real gap between both sides is much greater than perceived, and that gap is growing – Maj.-Gen. (res.) Giora Eiland, former head of the National Security Council, 2009

The land-for-peace idea has now collapsed. We have to find another way, and a new concept is urgently needed – Maj.-Gen. (res.) Uzi Dayan, former head of the National Security Council, 2007

It is time to have a clear-headed, hard look at reality: The two state solution is dead. Where do we go from here? – Prof. Carlo Strenger, columnist for Haaretz, 2011

It doesn’t get much clearer than that. Even if one strongly disagrees with his ideological predilections, Jerusalem Post columnist Gershon Baskin was nonetheless correct in assessing the magnitude and urgency of the emerging danger when he recently stated, “We have a very short period of time remaining before we come to the conclusion that there is no longer any resolution to this conflict that enables us to have a Jewish nationstate in the Land of Israel. If this happens, it will be the end of the Zionist dream that so many have worked so hard for so long to create and sustain.”

Approaching crossroads

The Jewish people is rapidly approaching a crucial juncture. It will soon have to decide whether or not it is willing to maintain its nation-state; whether it is willing to forgo over a century of unparalleled sacrifice, effort and achievement to satisfy the cynical and hypocritical dictates of political correctness; whether it is prepared to surrender substance for form; to forsake real national freedoms for the artificial facade of feigned individual equality.

Lying With Numbers: Green Energy Edition

A nice little report out telling us that going green isn’t in fact going to cost us anything. Which is indeed nice as just about everyone else would just love to clean up the planet, reduce pollution and not boil Gaia but we have this sneaking suspicion that the costs of doing so are going to be greater than the benefits. So to hear that it won’t cost anything is just glorious: miraculous in fact.

And of course we can and do trust all of the numbers that are given to us by a government department. Would be terribly cynical not to, undemocratic even:

Every person in Britain will need to pay about £5,000 a year between now and 2050 on rebuilding and using the nation’s entire energy system, according to government figures. But the cost of developing clean and sustainable electricity, heating and transport will be very similar to replacing today’s ageing and polluting power stations, the analysis finds.

The forecasts come from a unique open-source analysis package, called the 2050 pathways calculator, which was created by Professor David MacKay, chief scientific adviser to the Department of Energy and Climate Change.
