The U.N's Climate Policy Comes to a Screeching Halt!

Full AR5 draft leaked here, contains game-changing admission of enhanced solar forcing!

For more than three years since hackers broke into the computers at the University of East Anglia's Climate Research Unit  the worlds climate scientists have debated pro and con about whether global warming is really a man-caused phenomena. Now comes a game changing leak from www.stopgreensuicide.com that blows the top off the debate maybe once and for all. 

But you have to go deeper into the real story and see the players. Businessmen and politicians brought together by the fury of desire to control everything connected to energy, money and mankind set up Carbon Exchanges in Chicago. Barack Obama was on the board of Directors of that exchange and many more famous and infamous names of individuals and foundations are connected to that scandalous plan. But it started about a decade ago in Europe and involves the likes of George Soros and Al Gore among many other ultra wealthy control freaks.

From an article Existing Cap-and-Trade Programs to Cut Global Warming Emissions that describes the process...

Existing cap-and-trade programs provide important lessons about the need for robust design features. A brief review of real-world experience will illustrate two of these lessons. First, a cap must be tight enough to achieve significant cuts in emissions. Second, the method regulators select for distributing emission allowances to firms is critical, and auctioning is gaining favor as the preferred approach.

The Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) is a cap-and-trade program that covers a single sector—electricity generation—in 10 northeastern and mid-Atlantic states. The program aims to achieve a 10 percent reduction in emissions from power plants by 2018.

California is the largest entity in this RGGI scheme. That should tell you something about the already dismal prospects of any real viability of survival for that state.

Cap and Trade is the process used to 'exchange' carbon credits (literally air) for money under the auspices of some arbitrary group of countries, businesses foundations, or politicians. You pay for the right to pollute the air. The more you pollute the more you pay. Its not about stopping pollution its about conditioning society to use less energy so you don't cause as much pollution.  But that's the question; how much is mankind responsible for global warming or is it solar activity that causes the warming and cooling?

That is why the Obama administration is so anxious to have carbon dioxide declared a pollutant. For every breath a human exhales he theoretically could be charged a tax for his carbon dioxide emmission. Yep!, a tax just to breath.  

You can bet if global warming is a device of forced control then the Cap and Trade entities are are nothing more than onerous taxing agencies. And CCX, even though it still operates in Chicago at a greatly diminished capacity, will come to an abrupt end if the Shorebank/Barack Obama/Kamala Harris/Tony West/Diane Fienstien connection is truly exposed. It encompasses the tattered money laundering scandals of the Obama Campaign Finance of foreign cash in California...but that's another story... 

 Judge says Hobby Lobby Must Cover Abortion Drugs

By Baptist Press, Tue, November 20, 2012

OKLAHOMA CITY (BP) -- A federal judge has ruled that Hobby Lobby and Mardel stores must cover abortion-causing drugs for their employees as required by the Obama administration because the companies -- despite having faith as a central element of their operations -- are not religious enough to warrant a court intervention.

Represented by the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, Hobby Lobby and Mardel had argued that requiring them to pay for the drugs, which come under brand names such as Plan B and ella, would violate the faith of their owners, not to mention the U.S. Constitution's guarantee of freedom of religion. Judge Joe Heaton,

A Letter from Hobby Lobby Stores CEO

By David Green, the founder and CEO of Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc.

When my family and I started our company 40 years ago, we were working out of a garage on a $600 bank loan, assembling miniature picture frames. Our first retail store wasn't much bigger than most people's living rooms, but we had faith that we would succeed if we lived and worked according to God's word. From there,Hobby Lobby has become one of the nation's largest arts and crafts retailers, with more than 500 locations in 41 states. Our children grew up into fine business leaders, and today we run Hobby Lobby together, as a family.

We're Christians, and we run our business on Christian principles. I've always said that the first two goals of our business are (1) to run our business in harmony with God's laws, and (2) to focus on people more than money. And that's what we've tried to do. We close early so our employees can see their families at night. We keep our stores closed on Sundays, one of the week's biggest shopping days, so that our workers and their families can enjoy a day of rest. We believe that it is by God's grace that Hobby Lobby has endured, and he has blessed us and our employees. We've not only added jobs in a weak economy, we've raised wages for the past four years in a row. Our full-time employees start at 80% above minimum wage.

But now, our government threatens to change all of that. A new government health care mandate says that our family business MUST provide what I believe are abortion-causing drugs as part of our health insurance. Being Christians, we don't pay for drugs that might cause abortions, which means that we don't cover emergency contraception, the morning-after pill or the week-after pill. We believe doing so might end a life after the moment of conception, something that is contrary to our most important beliefs. It goes against the Biblical principles on which we have run this company since day one. If we refuse to comply, we could face $1.3 million PER DAY in government fines.

Our government threatens to fine job creators in a bad economy. Our government threatens to fine a company that's raised wages four years running. Our government threatens to fine a family for running its business according to its beliefs. It's not right. I know people will say we ought to follow the rules; that it's the same for everybody. But that's not true. The government has exempted thousands of companies from this mandate, for reasons of convenience or cost. But it won't exempt them for reasons of religious belief.

So, Hobby Lobby and my family are forced to make a choice. With great reluctance, we filed a lawsuit today, represented by the Becket Fund for Religious Liberty, asking a federal court to stop this mandate before it hurts our business. We don't like to go running into court, but we no longer have a choice. We believe people are more important than the bottom line and that honoring God is more important than turning a profit.
My family has lived the American dream. We want to continue growing our company and providing great jobs for thousands of employees, but the government is going to make that much more difficult. The government is forcing us to choose between following our faith and following the law. I say that's a choice no American and no American business should have to make.
The government cannot force you to follow laws that go against your fundamental religious belief. They have exempted thousands of companies but will not except Christian organizations including the Catholic church.

Since you will not see this covered in any of the liberal media, pass this on to all your contacts.
 

Sincerely,
David Green, CEO and Founder of Hobby Lobby Stores, Inc.

The Road to Hell in Headlines

It’s Sunday Morning and I’m sitting at my computer contemplating what I have been reading from around the web this morning. I have become aware of the numbness in my reaction to certain headlines as I try to absorb some relevance to what’s going on around me in the world and how it affects my life.

Sixth Youth Charged in Delivery Driver's Murder

Ill. Supreme Court: Sex With 17-Year-Old Was Legal, Pictures Were Not

Pet Piranha Bites Off Toddler's Fingertip

All of these headlines made me feel sad, but they also made me curious as to how a country like the USA has allowed our society to become so narcissistic, unrestrained and empty.  Why will gangs murder for $48 dollars and some dim sung?. Why are pictures more important than the soul of a 17 year old? Why do people keep exotic pets that mean more to them than their children.

But the story that struck me as most odd and disturbing was:

*Eye For An Eye, Hair For Hair? Judge Orders Price Woman
 To Cut Off Daughter's Ponytail In Court

Teen had helped cut hair of 3-year-old girl she met at McDonald's

A troubled 14 year old girl and her 11 year old girl friend sat in a booth at McDonald's plotting an attack on a three year old girl they had started talking to and playing with. The two perpetrators first asked a McDonald's employee if they could borrow a pair of scissors. They were told no. They then walked across the street and bought a pair of scissors at a Dollar Store. They went back to the McDonald's and proceeded to cut the  little girl’s hair off to little to chin level before the attack was stopped. The toddler had soft wavy hair the fell to the middle of her back and had never been cut according to her mother. The older girls were arrested.

At their trial, the older of the two girls was sentenced to serve 30 days in detention, pay restitution to her victims and serve 276 hours of community service. But the Judge told the girl’s mother he would cut the punishment in half if she would cut her daughter’s ponytail off, right in the courtroom, at the request of the 3 year old mother. The older girl's mother accepted the off, but now has second thoughts. The 11 year old had already had had her hair cut but was allowed to have it done in a beauty salon.

The older girls mother has since file a complaint against the Judge stating she wished she hadn’t taken the Judges offer, stating: "I guess I should have went into the courtroom knowing my rights, because I felt very intimidated," adding "An eye for an eye, that's not how you teach kids right from wrong.". He daughter had also been charged in another crime of making obscene and threatening phone call, with threats of rape and mutilation, to a teen in another state. Some of the calls were recorded.

I found this article to be disturbing on many levels. Obviously the Judge was wiser than the mother who seems to have had no religious instruction at all on how to raise her daughter to be a moral, kind, self-respecting person. And now she’s willing to go back to court to show her daughter what the Judge did was wrong which means what her daughter did was right.

All of theses headlines and stories have one thing in common; we now know we live in a secular world, where things like kindness, morality and self-control are all long ago norms, replaced by selfishness, greed, laziness and mockery of a sane society.

The Bible was removed from our schools, replaced by moral relativism. Do what feels good not what’s morally right. It’s so obvious. Unfortunately, society is blinded to the truth. It rushes down the path of least resistance; the path that leads to Hell.

Romney's Hidden Victory

To say Mitt Romney's securing the Republican Presidential nomination is underwhelming to the Press is an understatement. Headlines as of 5/29, at 9:43 pm:

Seems strange for the man who will probably
be our President come November!

Obama, Made to Dictate

Barak Hussein Obama's work, for this task, started years before he came to the Presidency. He was born, maybe as American or maybe not, to free-thinkers in the 1960's. It was a time of heated protest against an unpopular war and the great civil rights struggles that moved American culture to a socially more just society. It was a time of free love and psychedelic drugs and great upheaval. It was a time that changed America from a wholesome, apple pie society to the bong, thong and song cultural drift it now experiences. Barack Obama was a born dictator.

His mother, S. Ann Dunham Sorento, was a Kansas born girl, uprooted frequently by her restless Father who came to live in Hawaii. She hungered for romance and excitement in her life. She was rebellious of the vestments of that time and she did the unthinkable, she married out of her race. This was no small affront to a society who was dealing with the new paradigm of a more tolerant attitude toward social issues. She married the most controversial figure she could find, a married, foreign, muslin man who was black. Someone that could express her disdain of proper society. She seems to have passed this gene onto her son.

He had a childhood that could best be described as Bohemian. Uprooted from the very beginning by the abandonment of his father and the restlessness of his mother he had an unconventional childhood. His Mother seemed to gravitate toward Muslim men. Her second husband, another Muslim, moved his new family from Hawaii to Indonesia. A young Obama attended both secular and Muslim schools there until his mother once again uprooted her children, Barak and half-sister, Maya, and moved them back to Hawaii. To get a better understanding of Obama you need only take a look at his mother's life. This from a 2008 Times magazine article:

"She cried a lot," says her daughter Maya Soetoro-Ng, "if she saw animals being treated cruelly or children in the news or a sad movie—or if she felt like she wasn't being understood in a conversation." And yet she was fearless, says Soetoro-Ng. "She was very capable. She went out on the back of a motorcycle and did rigorous fieldwork. Her research was responsible and penetrating. She saw the heart of a problem, and she knew whom to hold accountable."

It describes Obama perfectly, and explains some of his recent choices. Empathy and accountability. His choice of Sonia Sotomayor for the Supreme Court is almost Oedipal. His mother's empathy and accountability are firmly implanted in this woman who appears to have similar personality traits as Obama;s mother and if you squint your eyes really hard, even looks a little like Obama's mother.

Some of the greatest influences in Obama's early life were Leftist and Marxist. His early friendships and activities were that of a young man with an identity crisis. One of his strongest influences as a young man in Hawaii was a Communist, a poet, and an admitted pedophile, Frank Marshall Davis. Barak's white Grandfather introduced his grandson to Davis, who was black, when he[Barak] was 10 years old. Barak grew to think of Davis as a Father figure and mentor.

In Chicago, Obama worked for Leftest Organizations and had Leftest friends. Bill Ayers a 1960's radical and Bernadine Dorn were friends and neighbors. Ayers and Obama worked and raised money for the same Foundation. Father Flager and Rev. Jeriahmia Wright, were personal heroes of Obama

Obviously, Barak Hussein Obama is a Muslim at heart. No other explanation could explain his body language and speech since his entry into public life. Before he was elected he shunned all things Muslim. He wouldn't use his middle name. He banned two Muslim women from the stage at a campaign event in Detroit because the were wearing hijabs, Muslim headscarves. He later denied it was his fault because his staff had assigned their seat to someone else.

He was paranoid about being linked to the Muslim world given most Americans skepticism since 911. He made a Freudian slip in an September 8, 2008 interview with George Stephanopolos of ABC. The video has now disappeared from YouTube replaced with this notice: This is from the transcript of that interview:

"MR. STEPHANOPOULOS: And John McCain said the same thing about questioning your faith.
SEN. OBAMA: And what was the first thing the McCain campaign went out and did? They said, look, these liberal blogs that support Obama are out there attacking Governor Palin. Let's not play games. What I was suggesting - you're absolutely right that John McCain has not talked about my Muslim faith, and you're absolutely right that that has not come -

MR. STEPHANOPOULOS: Your Christian faith.

SEN. OBAMA: My Christian faith - well, what I'm saying is -
MR. STEPHANOPOULOS: Connections, right.

SEN. OBAMA: - that he hasn't suggested that I'm a Muslim, and I think that his campaign upper echelons haven't either. What I think is fair to say is that coming out of the Republican camp, there have been efforts to suggest that perhaps I'm not what who I say I am when it comes to my faith, something which I find deeply offensive, and that has been going on for a pretty long time."

He gave a speech in 2006 that mocked Christians and Jews by mocking the old and new testaments of the Bible. It was in that speech that he first uttered "America is no longer a Christian nation". This phrase is often taken out of context, because in it he mentions other religions that are part of America, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists. This may have been an acceptable comment except he has kept repeating it. He seems to, at every turn, ridicule Christianity and Judaism. In Turkey he again said "America is no longer a Christian nation". He was trying to make a connection between the two countries, Turkey and America, as secular nations.

Who can forget the bow to the Saudi King...

In Cario, Egypt Obama made his pilgrimage to his true belief and spoke these words:

“I have known Islam on three continents before coming to the region where it was first revealed. That experience guides my conviction that partnership between America and Islam must be based on what Islam is, not what it isn’t. And I consider it part of my responsibility as president of the United States to fight against negative stereotypes of Islam wherever they appear.”

On French television he nuanced his remarks about America and Muslims by saying:

"Now, the flip side is I think that the United States and the West generally, we have to educate ourselves more effectively on Islam. And one of the points I want to make is, is that if you actually took the number of Muslims Americans, we’d be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world. And so there’s got to be a better dialogue and a better understanding between the two peoples."

For all his sage understanding he clearly is revealing his soul. He is, no matter what his words say, a Muslim, an Islamist and possibly a jihadist in the way he is changing America.

When any organism is attacked from a foreign body it defends itself. Most of the President's true ideas are foreign to a great many Americans. He has talked like a Moderate and has preformed as something very different. Almost all of his "change" has been 180 degrees from where most Americans live. Obama loves to dictate what America should be; anything but American.

An Open Letter to City Officials Who Have Allowed OWS to Gain a Foothold in Their Communities…

To NYC Mayor Bloomberg and
Other Mayors hosting OWS:

What the hell are you thinking?
As this OWS(Occupy Wall Street) virus spreads, why are you allowing public and private property to be violated in the false notion of societal victimization and free speech? Are you so afraid that these little freaks constitutional “rights” are being violated at the expense of public safety and sanity, that you feel you have to kowtow to their demands? How long will your citizens allow you to babysit these childish thugs?

These people and groups want to so overwhelm your police, jails, courts and all city amenities, to the point of collapse. This is not free speech! This is not “the right of redress”; this is a Revolution and apparently you fail to foresee the dangers that lye ahead as these groups set up a “government” within your local governments and within the United States?

The OWS will not obey any law that sane people in a civil society have created for the greater good and protection of their city’s inhabitants. They are outlaws, beggars, misfits, and worse; criminals and mentally ill sociopaths who are preying on one and other, as well as your communities at large.

They are Community Organizers in the worst vein of the Arab Spring demonstrators. They are: Communist, Leftists, Fascists, Skinheads, Nazis, and every form of Left-wing Agitator who intend to help this Administration complete their final “transformation” of America! They are the enemy of everything they say they stand for in the grandiose outline of Saul Alinsky’s “Rules for Radicals”; and Cloward and Piven.

Money, clothing, tents and food are pouring into  these groups’ encampments in your cities while your Mayors and other public officials are trying to “accommodate” these groups by allowing the Protestors to destroy public and private spaces, commit lewd acts and turn them into virtual cesspools.

It time for you to do your duty as elected city officials of all the people of your communities and not let these false egalitarians destroy your citizen’s rights to a safe and protected environment without the violence and unclean conditions that these demurrers are creating. Their agenda is blurred by noble sounding causes that are just props for their illegal notions under civil U.S. Code.

From Cornell University Law School, Legal Information Institute:

U.S. Code: § 2385. Advocating overthrow of Government.

TITLE 18 > PART I > CHAPTER 115 > § 2385

Whoever knowingly or willfully advocates, abets, advises, or teaches the duty, necessity, desirability, or propriety of overthrowing or destroying the government of the United States or the government of any State, Territory, District or Possession thereof, or the government of any political subdivision therein, by force or violence, or by the assassination of any officer of any such government; or

Whoever, with intent to cause the overthrow or destruction of any such government, prints, publishes, edits, issues, circulates, sells, distributes, or publicly displays any written or printed matter advocating, advising, or teaching the duty, necessity, desirability, or propriety of overthrowing or destroying any government in the United States by force or violence, or attempts to do so; or

Whoever organizes or helps or attempts to organize any society, group, or assembly of persons who teach, advocate, or encourage the overthrow or destruction of any such government by force or violence; or becomes or is a member of, or affiliates with, any such society, group, or assembly of persons, knowing the purposes thereof—

Shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both, and shall be ineligible for employment by the United States or any department or agency thereof, for the five years next following his conviction.

If two or more persons conspire to commit any offense named in this section, each shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both, and shall be ineligible for employment by the United States or any department or agency thereof, for the five years next following his conviction.

As used in this section, the terms “organizes” and “organize”, with respect to any society, group, or assembly of persons, include the recruiting of new members, the forming of new units, and the regrouping or expansion of existing clubs, classes, and other units of such society, group, or assembly of persons.

My question to the cities hosting the OWS Movement: Why aren’t you upholding the Law? Do the job your constituents elected you to do! STOP the unlawful overthrow of the United States Constitution; NOW!

EVICT OWS NOW!

Obama: the Man in the Mirror...President or Something Else?

Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)

Walt Whitman, "Song of Myself" US poet (1819 - 1892)

Metaphors are an apt tool to use when trying to define a complex subject. Barack Hussein Obama is as complex a subject as it gets in politics. He spent, or some suggest, misspent his youth avoiding defining himself. He hides his history with a vigor that a master criminal would envy. He hides his motives even deeper. Alas, this has never seemed more true than with his foreign policy adventures since becoming President. I wonder who he sees when he looks in the mirror? A President? A savior of minorities around the world? Or as a Dictator?

For the past weeks President Obama has made it crystal clear that he shouldn't be the Commander-in-Chief of the United States Armed Forces in a time of war. He has been as transparent as mud. He has not even shown the faintest hint of being a competent leader as he and his Administration have played the most confusing game of Brinkmanship with the Middle-East's democracy[sic] movements; approving one day and objecting the next.

He is driving both the far-left and far-right into furious fits of rebuke as his in-decisions and curious in-actions compound upon themselves. President Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and have appeared on opposite sides of policy at times since the “pro-democracy” protests started to consume the Middle-East. We were either met with confusion, contradiction or downright silence. 

The pro-democracy protests started in Tunisia in December of 2010 as a young student protester set himself on fire, purportedly in protest of Tunisia's ruling family's accumulation of wealth, while leaving the youth of Tunisia and its college graduates jobless. It became the Facebook and Twitter Revolution as pro-democracy students and activists posted the chronology of events on the internet for all to see. The fuse had been lit. On January 14th, 2011, after weeks of silence, Obama's issued his first official statement on the crisis:

“The United States stands with the entire international community in bearing witness to this brave and determined struggle for the universal rights that we must all uphold, and we will long remember the images of the Tunisian people seeking to make their voices heard. I urge all parties to maintain calm and avoid violence, and call on the Tunisian government to respect human rights, and to hold free and fair elections in the near future that reflect the true will and aspirations of the Tunisian people.” 

By the 19th of January President Obama was assuring Egypt's Hosni Mubarak that he had his back. On February 1, it is reported by Arron Klein at WorldNetDaily.com that a high U.S. Embassy official was meeting with the Muslim Brotherhood to discuss Egypt's future after Mubarak “falls”. On February 1st, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was calling for an “orderly transition of power” to democracy.

That same day Mubarak announced he would not run for re-election in the fall, Obama issued a statement that the transition must start now. On February 10th, Mubarak raised the hopes of the demonstrators with a “big announcement”. Protesters and governments across the world thought this was his resignation announcement. He told the multitude of cheering students, activists and countless people caught up in the revolutionary reverie that he wouldn't leave until September. Fierce riots broke out and the next morning, on February 11th, Mubarak finally announced his resignation.

After maintaining an eerie silence on Libyan leader Muammar el-Qaddafi's assault on his own people in the aftermath of the Tunisian and Egyptian uprising, Obama finally made a statement on February 23rd about Libya but never mentions Qaddafi by name. On March 17th the UN Security Council issues its order for a no-fly zone between Libya's revolutionaries and Qaddafi's military forces. President Obama commits planes, ships and munitions to another middle-eastern "conflict" and says we'll be out of Libya soon or maybe not; it depends what time of the week it is.

 

Qaddafi prefaced a letter to President Obama on March 19, 2011, as reported by the Times of India:

"To our son, his excellency, Mr Barack Hussein Obama. I have said to you before, that even if Libya and the United Sates of America enter into a war, god forbid, you will always remain a son. Your picture will not be changed."

I suppose this means Obama will still be welcome among the Libyan elite if they survive this fiasco and there is every indication that both Obama and Qaddafi will survive.

The Obama Administration's collusion on the uprisings in the Middle-East are also reported to have begun as early as 2008. It was reported in the January 28th, 2011 issue of the London Telegraph that the U.S. Embassy in Cairo assisted a young dissident in attending a U.S.sponsored summit-for-activists in New York City in 2008. The same dissident was part of the Egyptian demonstrations in January, 2011.

During the Egyptian riots International Unions and many communist organizations participated in the riots. Disturbingly, planners included the U.S. State Department sponsored Alliance for Youth Movements. They worked together to stir up the demonstrators across the Middle-East.  The AYA movement is a world wide cabal that involves pro-democracy movements across the world: Anti-FARC in South America, pro-democracy activists in China, activists in most middle-eastern countries including the April 6th Youth Movement. The State Department partnered with private sector companies such as: Facebook, Google, Pepsi, MTV, AT&T, Howcast, Access 360 Media and the Columbia University Law School among others to promote techniques that activist could use to protest their oppressors under the guise of helping youth organize. The current protests are not spontaneous demonstrations or movements.They have been planning these insurrections since 2008 and probably before.

What does Obama actually see in the mirror these days? Does he have the same malady that Alice in Wonderland Land had after she went through the looking glass; everything looked backwards? Is he just hiding his true identity; that of a soft dictator, the face behind a movement. This doesn't bode well for his leadership in the United States. How does he account for his lack of decisiveness? He is the master of contradiction and unfortunately the executor of our fate..

Not So Strange Bedfellows...

Code Pink, Wikileaks, Julian Assange, Hiliary Clinton and Barack Obama

As I've read the headlines on Drudge this week I've had have to ponder how much of the turmoil the world finds itself in can be blamed on the U.S. through its blundering brand of so called foreign policy under the Obama Administration? Leftist politics have always made for a chaotic environment and they haven't missed any opportunity to exploit a crisis, whether foreign or domestic.

...and the beat goes on, Code Pink this week sent a flash message to its members to raise at least $5,000 to help support the pro-democracy demonstrators in Egypt. What was the money supporting? Bottled water or food for the demonstrators? No,something far more pertinent to Medea Benjamin, co-founder of the anti-war group, Code Pink. It was for flowers. Yes, I said flowers.

In an attempt for the self-hating Jewish American Princess, (Susie) Medea Benjamin to recreate the iconic Bernie Boston 1960's war protest photo of demonstrator's placing flowers in the barrel of a gun, the appeal went out. Funny thing is the weapon of choice for the demonstrators in Egypt and Tunisia has been rocks, stones and Molotov Cocktails.

The appeal for funds is from the same organization that last weekend called for the lynching of Supreme Court Justice Thomas and his wife and sending Justice Samuel Alito back to Italy at an anti-capitalist rally against the Wichita, KS based company Koch Industries Inc. Koch's biggest transgression i.e: donating money to anyone other than Barack Obama. The rally also featured “blue ribbon” panelist Van Jones who continued his lunatic progressive spewing of “hate the right” rhetoric.

Wikileaks has irrupted with its own insolent brand of promoting world peace by releasing ever more damaging documents on purported U.S. misdeeds. This week's trope was that the Obama Administration has agreed to release to the Russians closely held secrets on Great Britain's nuclear deterrents. The Obama obsession of damaging the English Empire rings of the same hateful thread of revenge against his ancestor's alleged tormentors as did his first acts of attempting to embarrass the British Empire i.e: returning the Churchill bust from the Oval Office and touching the Queen at their first meeting. Only this is a more serious assault on British security.

Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton's State Department were caught off guard by the events of the past weeks in Egypt. They may go down in history as the two individuals who so severely damaged U.S prestige and influence throughout the Middle-east, Africa and Europe that it could take decades to repair, if its possible at all. Admitting errors is one thing but issuing a flood of contradictory statements about the U.S. position on the problems in Egypt and throughout the middle-east has seemed more than a little bi-polar.

The Administartion's views have ranged from Mubarak must leave immediately to urging caution and allowing Mubarak to stay until the September elections and everything in between. They have supported virtually all sides on this issue, including the Muslim Brotherhood who have been described by the administration both as saviors and terrorist. One has to ask if this is a deliberate decision by the Obama Administration to ally with the Muslim Brotherhood without appearing to.

Obama's modus operandi has always been to win by destroying his enemies whether in politics or foreign policy. Its a good bet that Obama considers Israel “the problem” in the middle-east situation just as he thought of Great Britain as the enemy of Kenya when he was growing up. He heard the tale of his Grandfather being tortured by the Brits in the first Mau Mau Uprising in 1949 Africa and it stuck in his apocryphal memory and formed the biased policies he seems to be carrying out today.

Code Pink, Wikileaks, Julian Assange, Hiliary Clinton and Barack Obama all seem to be working from the same script. Destroy the United State's credibility and the State of Israel at any cost. See to it that the Palestinians and middle-eastern despots are placated, elevated and rewarded.

In an ever more dangerous world Israel is being surrounded by enemies, old and new. This threatens to destabilize more than just the middle-east. It only took the murder of one Austrian archduke to start the first World War. If the dark forces unleashed in Tunisia and Egypt are allowed to fester and Israel is attacked it could be the start of something no one wants to think about. We need to pray that cooler heads will prevail in these matters and that somewhere in the world we can find one, true, statesman; if they even still exist.

Left-wing Bias and the Facts

This last weekends news has been an eyeopener for many Americans. Left-wing bias and lunacy has gone viral on mainstream television and the internet. Many Americans that had been reluctant to embrace the Tea Party movement are now seeing first hand how rabid and flawed left-wing bias is.

The shooting of a sitting U.S. Congresswoman and the murder of a federal judge as well as the other victims, both dead and alive, have brought to the surface the Left's most sought after restrictions to personal freedoms in modern times, gun control, talk radio control, internet control and the destruction of Fox News, Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck.

Their arguments have met a lot of resistance from the right-wing and even mainstream Americans as the left has spewed its malevolent, hate-filled rhetoric. The nations airwaves are filled with blame for everyone on the right side of any issue but not the person who is allegedly responsible for this heinous act. The Left has been short on facts and long on talking-points. Here are just a few commonsense facts that the left-wing loons may have overlooked in their rush to judgment and desire to denigrate every ring-wing thought and smear every right-wing personality and politician in the process.

The United States of America is the most heavily citizen armed society in the world; and it is the freest. The countries that are the most authoritarian are places where their citizens have no rights, no guns and no freedoms as Americans know through their Bill-of-Rights. If the guns owned by Americans were distributed evenly inside our borders, nine out of every 10 Americans would own a legal weapon.

It took only one legally owned, semi-automatic weapon in the hands of one mentally disturbed man to extinguish 6 lives and change the lives of 13 more, forever. There are laws on the books in Arizona that should have prevented this man from purchasing the gun and ammunition in the first place as he was already know to law enforcement, yet he was never placed on any restricted list for the purchase of a weapon or ammunition.

How can guns be the problem in the face of that kind of evidence?

There are more than 2000 talk radio stations carrying some form of talk, 24 hours a day, in America. Free speech and talk radio are the cornerstone of freedom in our Republic in the 21st Century. The free exchange of ideas, political, sports or the wider communities of though are broadcast 24/7 all across the nation without incidents of mass murder because of the subjects being discussed on these programs.

There is NO evidence that the shooter ever listened to any form of talk radio. He was a “metal-head” and listened to demonic, heavy metal music from what the video evidence of him as the grim reaper, burning the American flag, with a heavy-metal soundtrack seemed to suggest.

So how can talk radio or the hosts on these shows be the cause of this man's insane act?

Fox News is the highest rated cable news network on television, pulling more viewers than all other cable news shows combined on most nights. They, unlike their competitors, consistently provide many points-of-view on all sides of whatever issue they are discussing and they don't feature as a headline personal attacks on the host of their competitor's shows. They have to do a lot of defense from the slings and arrows being thrown by the hosts of their cable networks competition such as CNBC, MSN, MSNBC, CNN and Headline News. And again, NO evidence that this self-described Anarchist and accused murderer ever watched television, let alone Fox News.

With so many words spoken across the airwaves in the 24 hour news cycle, how can Fox News be the problem?

As for the individuals the left-wing media apparatus is smearing, none is more hated by their ilk than Sarah Palin. The very fact that she is a woman who has carved out a place in the public arena while still being a wife, an unapologetic mother, an executive and politician gives the liberals fits. She doesn't fit their template of the successful woman.

Sarah is Pro-Life, Pro-Gun, Pro-God and she actually shoots and processes her own fish and game in a state where there are few grocery stores and people really do eat what they kill. She is a person so alien to the left's lifestyle that they can't fathom her presence on the planet let alone imagine her as President. In their view she must be destroyed, lied about, and by whatever means necessary, be prevented from ever being elected to the highest office in the land.

As for Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck and their megaphone of TV and talk radio are an ever present danger to the Left. The Left has been trying for decades to get control of the airwaves through the fairness doctrine or any device which would silence their most hated critics.

How can Sarah, Rush or Glenn be the problem? They aren't.

There is so much blame being bandied about by the Left, it is mind boggling. They can't see the flaws in their machinations let alone be reasonable and use commonsense. I could list all the false statements by the Left's talking heads but it would take far longer than I wish to devote to this article. The Left's own President, Obama, has been guilty of some of the very speech the Left is complaining about. He is now trying to portray a himself as a more sensitive, thoughtful leader; doing and saying all the right things.

This I fear is a deception . A leopard can't so easily change its spots. In the next weeks and months I see him as the manipulator-in-chief who will begin to inflict serious damage on the U.S. Constitution. I hope I'm wrong but this President's history betrays his move to the middle. He is, after all, a committed leftist, a community activist and still trying to bring about the radical transformation of America. I pray that Americans are not fooled by his pretense. But the President is not responsible for this attack on the Congresswoman and the rest of the victims.

The person who pulled the trigger on that legally purchased weapon is ultimately responsible.

Don't let this demented man's insane act be used as an excuse to let this Administration take our freedoms away. Stand up for what you know is right, not right-wing, just right.

Muslim Mosque Developer Calls Attention to his Diverse Heritage...

In a move that is likely do more to fuel the debate on the Ground Zero "Mosque" than to garner support for it, Sharif El-Gamal sat down with CBS's 60 Minutes to explain his heritage. He says he is a New Yorker, an American born in Brooklyn, at Methodist Hospital, to a Polish-Catholic mother and an Egyptian father and he's married to a Christian girl. Let's see, now we've got all the bases covered, he's an American because he was born on American soil but were his parents legal immigrants? He has a Catholic heritage as well as Muslim but he says he is Muslim.



El-Gamal says he wants to bring all cultures together at that spot because he "does not hold himself or his faith" accountable for the 911 attacks. Other Americans may not be so "tolerant" of that point-of-view. It seems that CBS bent over backwards to try and make this man appear mainstream by explaining to the "rubes" here in middle America that its not that easy to pick up a plot of land in Manhattan because NYC has such a vibrant Real Estate Market. Nothing to see here...move along...



The question still persists as to where Mr. El-Gamal gets his financing. He must be the luckiest rags to riches story in America. Five years ago he was a lowly waiter in a Manhattan restaurant and today he is a multi-millionaire Real Estate Developer who can't seem to pay off his smaller debts but can spend 4.5 million dollars in cash for the Burlington Coat Factory Building. Boy those tips must have been fantastic...

...and in another cultural coincidence, he also joined his local Jewish Community Center. Diversity is alive and well and living in this one man, like no other American. Maybe he is a member of the NAACP and La Raza too....

Follow the Mosque Money...from $18,000 One Year Ago to $100,000,000.00

Last years tax return for the Cordoba Project listed its net assets at $18,000. So where did a waiter who purchased one of the first buildings for the project get his money?



According to Melvin Pomerantz, whose family originally owned the property at 45-47 Park Place, a partner in SoHo Properties, Sharrif El-Gamal, raised $4.8 million in cash to purchase the property from the Pomerantz family. El-Gamal first made the proposal in 2006 and raised the money over the next two years. El-Gamal also paid an extra $700,000 in cash to take over a lease from Con Ed for the building next door at 49-51 Park Place. That lease expires in 2071. It costs SoHo Properties $33,000 dollars a year to maintain the lease. The Cordoba Initiative is listed as one of the investors but the source of its funding remains a mystery.

As recently as 2003 Sharrif El-Gamal and his brother Sammy El-Gamal, were both waiters in New York City's Serafina’s Restaurant and Tao Restaurant respectively. That same year the brothers formed SoHo Properties primarily to lease apartments on a commission basis. They weren't selling real estate but they must have been very successful at leasing real estate because by 2007 they were purchasing Real Estate properties worth millions with cash. Not bad for commissioned leasing agents.

In 2007, Sharrif El-Gamal and his wife purchased an apartment on the upper west side of New York City for $1,000,000. In 2009 SoHo Properties bought a 12 story office building on the upper west side for more than $45 million dollars. This company is now spending millions in cash but is being investigated by the state of New York's Licensing Dept. for failure to maintain an escrow account for lease deposits and failure to return deposits to leasing customers.

Sharrif El-Gamal and Sammy El-Gamal may be related to a big supporter of President Barak Obama's election, Dr. Mohamed Z. El-Gamal, CEO of ATI Wave (Applied Technologies). “Moe” El-Gamal is a businessman who was just charged and arrested by the Justice Dept. last May on charges of shipping computers and technology to Lybia. Could he be the mysterious source of funds for SoHo Properties?

The funding for the Ground Zero mosque is murky. Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, the person fronting the mosque is a a director with The Perdana Organization based in Malaysia who donated more than $366,000 dollars along with $500,000 from Qutar to fund the future "Audacity of Hope" Flotilla, the followup to the "Freedom Flotilla" where Israeli soldiers were murdered and 10-19 (actual number disputed) flotilla participants lost their lives.

Questions must be answered about the source of funding for the Community Center, Mosque or whatever they are trying to build. All I know is, if Cordoba House is allowed to be built, then five times a day Americans would have thousands of Islamic men, facing toward Mecca, on their knees, with their butts in the face of America's 9/11 Graveyard. This is hallowed ground and should be treated with dignity and reverence.

There should be NO Mosque anywhere near the Ground Zero site or any other site that was attacked on that day. The design of the Pennsylvania Flight 93 Memorial should not be crescent shaped. I only hope that the room in the Pentagon used for Muslim prayer will be removed. I don't care how long its been there. If we truly have separation of the church from government then remove it. "Separate but equal" died with the 1964 Civil Rights Bill. If Muslims are allowed accommodation on these issues, how long before we have Sharia?

No "Fitna" at Ground Zero...

There is much fitna being done at Ground Zero. Fitna is a word that in Islamic circles means "mischief-making". This is a practice that the Koran seems to forbid but fitna exists at Ground Zero nonetheless.

In the Koran Muslims are told to "Be considerate when you debate with the People of the Book" meaning Gentiles and Jews. It looks like the nuances of the Koran are lost in this instance by the Progressive politicians and Islamic terror supporters in approving the mosque at Ground Zero.



Any sane person with even mildly developed sensitivity knows that to place this mosque within the view of Ground Zero is an affront to every American citizen who remembers and reveres the memories of those killed at the World Trade Center on 9/11. The visions of those attacks for most Americans are burned into our hearts and mind so to denigrate them in this manner is unconscionable.

Islam has a great affinity for cutthroat reminders of their perceived conquests over their enemies. For Muslim extremists anyone who denies the Koran is an infidel and worthy of destruction. Their goal is to conquer the world or destroy it. Muslims have had a long history of conquering cities and countries and erecting great mosques to to show the conquered masses their dominance over them.

The city of Andalusia, Spain was conquered in the tenth century by warring Muslims and renamed Cordoba. In near-mythical terms it was said to be the largest monument to Muslim "enlightenment" in the world. It boasted 700 mosques, 60,000 palaces and 70 libraries housing over 500,000 Arabic books. It was said to have had over 500,000 residents and was touted as the first city in Europe to have street lights. It replaced a Christian city that had stood for 500 years

Now Imam Feisel Abdul Rauf wants to name his 13 story Islamic center, Cordoba House. Why should Americans believe that his intentions are pure and an outreach to us? They shouldn't. History proves that Islam loves revenge and domination. One of the tenets of Islam is to show superiority over an enemy and to use mosques to flout its victories. This is from a blogsite that exposes the Qur'an (Koran) for what it says. From  Ben's Blog: "I will reveal it to you as I found it in the Hilali & Khan Noble Qur'an." 

• 9:111. Verily, Allâh has purchased of the believers their lives and their properties; for the price that theirs shall be the Paradise. They fight in Allâh's Cause, so they kill (others) and are killed. It is a promise in truth which is binding on Him in the Taurât (Torah) and the Injeel (Gospel) and the Qur'ân. And who is truer to his covenant than Allâh? Then rejoice in the bargain which you have concluded. That is the supreme success .

From the website Polipundit:
"The Great Mosque Of Cordoba, which like its proposed namesake in New York, was built to dominate a conquered people:"

The building was begun in approximately AD 600 as the Christian Visigothic church of St. Vincent. After the Islamic conquest of the Visigothic kingdom the Emir Abd ar-Rahman I bought the church. Abd ar-Rahman I and his descendants reworked it over two centuries to refashion it as a mosque, starting in 784.

Its not even the first monument to Islamic victory over America from 9/11. The coincidences in the design of the Flight 93 Memorial are creepy. Tom Burnett, Sr. father of Tom Burnett, Jr, a victim of Flight 93, believes the design of the memorial represents the SECOND mosque being built on a 9/11 site. He believes it will be the biggest mosque in the world.

The design has been modified but still retains its crescent shape and Mecca orientation.

So it appears much fitna is being done in more than one location in the United States. The bitterness American feel toward radical Islam is not being eased by these acts. Imam Faisal Abdul Rauf who is spearheading the Ground Zero project has a questionable past and ties to Islamic extremist. His father was a member of the Muslim Brotherhood said to be the spiritual forerunner of Al-Queda. From Pajamas Media...

Rauf’s father, Dr. Muhammad Abdul Rauf (1917-2004) — an Egyptian contemporary of Muslim Brotherhood founder Hassan al-Banna — conveyed to Feisal his family’s long tradition of radicalism, which he acquired at Islam’s closest equivalent to the Vatican, Al-Azhar University. The elder Dr. Rauf studied and taught there before fleeing Egypt in 1948. That year, Feisal Abdul Rauf was born in Kuwait.

Feisal Rauf has planned for some time to further develop his father’s U.S. Islamic expansionism. In 1990, Rauf opened the tiny al-Farah Mosque at 245 West Broadway in lower Manhattan. Area residents did not even notice the mosque until 2006, when the New York State Liquor Authority (SLA) refused to license a new bar on the same block and started yanking others’ liquor licenses

Looks like Greg Gutfield may have some problems getting a liquor license for the "gay Muslim bar" he wants to build in the Ground Zero neighborhood to protest the Ground Zero Mosque. We sure don't want to offend the "religion of peace". According to Reihan Salam of NRO's blog: "Ground Zero is a construction site." Nothing sacred here...move along.

The real fitna here may be to get the state of New York to help pay for some of the construction. It seems it is already being considered by Governor Patterson who in order to distance himself from President Obama's fluid support of the mosque has offered Imam Rauf a contribution from state funds if the Imam will move the project away from Ground Zero. Fitna indeed...

Birth of the Republican Party

Missouri Territory formerly Louisiana

When debating the entrance of the state of Maine and Missouri to the Union in 1820, The House of Representatives hit upon a solution that would indirectly be one of the the catalysts for the Civil War. Congress called it "the Missouri Compromise of 1820". It was an amendment that divided the country at the 36° 30' parallel between the pro-slavery (below the line), and anti-slavery (above the line) forces. 

Missouri was to be admitted to the Union without slavery in their constitution but a Senate bill was passed and in the compromise, Missouri was admitted to the Union with slavery, hence the designation of the Missouri Compromise. The the  36° 30' was still considered the line of demarcation between the North and the South.  It created an uneasy peace that lasted until the passage in 1854 of the Kansas-Nebraska Act. 

Kansas and Nebraska settlers would be allowed to decide if their territories would be free or be able to keep slaves. Both pro and anti-slavery forces rushed to settle in the new territories which led to bloodshed between the opposing forces. Kansas for a time had two state Legislatures, one pro-slavery and one anti slavery. President Franklin Pierce, sent in Federal troops to stop the violence and  support  anti-slavery settlers and to dissolve the pro-slavery legislature. 

John Brown, Abolitionist

Another election was held and again pro-slavery supporters won. They were charged with election fraud. It took John Brown and his anti-slavery raiders to push out pro-slavery settlers which led to the Kansas territory being deemed "bleeding Kansas". John Brown, considered a hero by many but was executed for Treason and insurrection on December 2, 1859. The anti-slavery settlers finally out numbered the pro-slavery settlers and on January 29, 1861, Kansas was admitted to the Union as a free state, eight weeks after the start of the Civil War.

 

So how was the Republican party formed? Northern leaders S. P. Chase, Charles Sumner, J. R. Giddiugs, Edward Wade, Gerritt Smith and Alexander De Witt in January 1854, released the "Appeal of Independent Democrats" a warning of imminent danger to the Union from pro-slavery forces. The Appeal was originally published in the Cincinnati Gazette and widely reprinted by other newspapers throughout the country.

It sparked spontaneous demonstrations across the Northern Territories and States. In 1854, the first Republican Party meeting took place in Ripon, Wisconsin. The message spread like wildfire! On June 6, 1854 more than 10,000 people turned out for a mass meeting known as "Under the Oaks" in Morgan's Forty, an oak grove, near Jackson, Michigan that is considered the birthplace of the Republican Party. The first organizing convention held on February 22, 1856 in Pittsburgh. The Republican Party held its first nominating convention on June 17, 1856, which announced the official formation, the birth, of the Republican Party.
