Disband the Congressional Black Caucus Posted By Roger L Simon URL to article: http://pajamasmedia.com/rogerlsimon/2011/09/26/disband-the-congressional-black-caucus/ Nothing is worse for Black Americans, African-Americans, Afro-Americans, soul brothers and sisters, people of color, non-ofays, or whatever you choose to call that particular minority segment of our society than the Congressional Black Caucus. No, I take that back. There are […]

NO….THAT FINGER AND I GLADLY JOIN MINE TO THE BIRDIE IS TO THE IDIOTS IN THE JEWISH COMMUNITY WHO STILL SUPPORT THE TWO STATE DISSOLUTION OF ISRAEL…..STAY TUNED. HELP IS ON THE WAY A NEW ORGANIZATION WILL CHALLENGE THOSE GROUPS THAT SUCK MONEY AND OXYGEN FROM AMERICA’S SUPPORTERS OF ISRAEL…..RSK
By rejecting both of US President Barack Obama’s requests — to avoid a United Nations bid for Palestinian Statehood and to return to the negotiating table — the Palestinian Authority President, Mahmoud Abbas, is now hoping to join the bandwagon of the few Arab and Muslim leaders who have dared to stand up to the Americans.
For many years, Abbas’s Arab and Muslim enemies had condemned him as a “puppet” in the hands of the US.
But his decision to dump the US will certainly help him get rid of that image. Abbas is well aware of the fact that anti-American sentiments remain as high as ever in most of the Arab and Islamic countries. This was the reason he decided that it would be unwise of him to continue swimming against this tide.
By distancing himself from Washington, Abbas has moved closer toward the Arab world’s anti-US camp, led by Iran and consisting of Hamas, Hizbullah and other radical groups.
It is no surprise, therefore, that some Hamas leaders have come out in support of Abbas’s decision to spit in the face of the Obama administration. In a sign of improved relations between the two parties, Abbas’s Fatah faction has now decided to resume unity talks with Hamas in the hope of forming a new government in the near future.

IS THERE A HIDDEN MESSAGE OF PEACE IN IT?…..RSK Last month Dr. Salah Sultan, a member of Yusuf al-Qaradawi’s International Union of Muslim Scholars (IUMS) and the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, declared on al-Jazeera that the IUMS would restore the fatwa they issued in 1994, which stated that “every […]
Roger’s Reality Show
First, Ailes dialed back the Tea Party talk. Now he’s turning the GOP race into a political X-Factor—and steering the election agenda one more time.
It was part political spectacle, part American Idol, part YouTube extravaganza, a pure Roger Ailes production—and the latest sign that the Fox News chairman is quietly repositioning America’s dominant cable-news channel.
Hours before last week’s presidential debate in Orlando, Ailes’s anchors sat in a cavernous back room, hunched over laptops, and plotted how to trap the candidates. Chris Wallace said he would aim squarely at Rick Perry’s weakness: “How do you feel about being criticized by some of your rivals as being too soft on illegal immigration? Then I go to Rick Santorum: is Perry too soft?”
“That’s going to get some fireworks going,” said managing editor Bill Sammon, grinning.
When showtime arrived, producer Marty Ryan choreographed the action from a crowded trailer outside the convention hall: he called for a two-shot when Wallace invited Mitt Romney to criticize Perry’s immigration stance, so the audience could watch both men’s agitated expressions. But Ryan barked, “Let’s just be on Perry,” as the Texas governor demanded to know whether Santorum had ever been to the Mexican border, capturing the moment. Afterward, Ailes phoned a top lieutenant: “Tell the team we’ve been kicking ass in these debates.”
http://www.prudenpolitics.com/index.php/pruden/full_column/flying_high_with_the_gaffe_patrol These are high times for the Gaffe Patrol. A “target-rich environment,” as the old-timers in Vietnam called it, invites every pilot with “unexpended ordnance” under his wings to shoot down everything he sees moving. Sometimes the Gaffe Patrol just can’t miss. Rick Perry was such a juicy target after the Republican debate that even […]

http://townhall.com/columnists/sandyrios/2011/09/26/at_least_perry_has_an_excuse/print Pundits seem hell bent on singling out a dismal performance by Governor Rick Perry on Thursday night’s FOX/Google debate, which was the most watched debate in history—proving voters are paying attention in record numbers as the economics tighten. Nine Republican candidates took the stage, but only one took the hearts of Florida’s Straw Poll […]
http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/2011/09/replacement-theology.html In the Washington Post’s “On Faith” section, a story asks; ‘Judaism without God? Yes, say American atheists’. You can have Judaism without G-D, much as you can have an “On Faith” section without anything to have faith in. It’s all a matter of definition. If you define Judaism by its covenantal document as a […]
http://sultanknish.blogspot.com/ If nothing else, Elizabeth Warren’s campaign for Commissar of Massachusetts deserves to be credited for getting at the heart of the issue. And the issue is private property. Is there such a thing as private property? According to the Warrens, private property is a false construct. Property is generated, maintained and protected through the […]
