Humanitarian crisis…

By

I keep hearing this we had to act quickly to avoid a humanitarian crisis in Benghazi idea as justification for our actions. Ok, fair enough, we went in to protect innocent people, Gadhafi is a nut…..who knows what horrors would have transpired had we not acted as we did. But, I have this one question that keeps running through my mind every time I hear this protect the people idea…..what makes you think the rebel forces aren’t going to be just as brutal if they gain the upper hand? And, at that point, what will be our next move? A “peace keeping” force?

Obama Speech on Libya.

I’ve decided to sum it up for anyone who didn’t get a chance to listen.

"It’s our responsibility… (just not mine)".

Still true to this day…

—Former chief editorial writer of the New York Times, John Swinton, reportedly said this at a banquet held in his honor…

There is no such thing, at this date of the world’s history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it.

There is not one of you who dares to write your honest opinions, and if you did, you know beforehand that it would never appear in print. I am paid weekly for keeping my honest opinion out of the paper I am connected with. Others of you are paid similar salaries for similar things, and any of you who would be so foolish as to write honest opinions would be out on the streets looking for another job. If I allowed my honest opinions to appear in one issue of my paper, before twenty-four hours my occupation would be gone.

The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press?

We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes.

Herman Cain Promises No Muslims

By

Quote:

KEYES: You came under a bit of controversy this week for some of the comments made about Muslims in general. Would you be comfortable appointing a Muslim, either in your cabinet or as a federal judge?
CAIN: No, I would not. And here’s why. There is this creeping attempt, there is this attempt to gradually ease Sharia law and the Muslim faith into our government. It does not belong in our government. This is what happened in Europe. And little by little, to try and be politically correct, they made this little change, they made this little change. And now they’ve got a social problem that they don’t know what to do with hardly.
The question that was asked that “raised some questions” and, as my grandfather said, “I does not care, I feel the way I feel.” I was asked, “what is the role of Islam in America?” I thought it was an odd question. I said the role of Islam in America is for those that believe in Islam to practice it and leave us alone. Just like Christianity. We have a First Amendment. And I get upset when the Muslims in this country, some of them, try to force their Sharia law onto the rest of us.

Lots of Presidential candidates wouldn’t be comfortable saying that no Muslims should be allowed in government positions, but not Herman Cain! Hopefully when he is our President he also closes off the military and non-appointee political jobs to Muslims. Because they are just spraying their Sharia everywhere!

Oh… 12th Imam, Madhi, Soon, Rule From Iraq and Other Assorted Nonsense

By

Yeah….

So a video was leaked. A propaganda video from the regime in Iran stating that they believe that the coming of the 12th Imam is near due to all of the unrest in the middle east.

Unrest probably caused and aided by them in my opinion…

… and they believe that Islam will finally get over on the Great Satan (that would be us) and Israel.

Quote:

The video claims that Iran is destined to rise as a great power in the last days to help defeat America and Israel and usher in the return of the Mahdi. And it makes clear the Iranians believe that time is fast approaching.

"The Hadith have clearly described the events and the various transformations of countries in the Middle East and also that of Iran in the age of the coming," said a narrator, who went on to say that America’s invasion of Iraq was foretold by Islamic scripture–and that the Mahdi will one day soon rule the world from Iraq.

That last part I find quite interesting. Maybe that is why AQ in Iraq fought us so hard there. Maybe? Something to do with a caliphate?

Quote:

The ongoing upheavals in other Middle Eastern countries like Yemen and Egypt–including the rise of the Muslim Brotherood — are also analyzed as prophetic signs that the Mahdi is near — so is the current poor health of the king of Saudi Arabia, an Iranian rival.

"Isn’t the presence of Abdullah, his illness, and his uncertain condition, great news for those anxious for the coming?" asks the narrator.

Iran’s supreme leader, Ayatollah Khameini, and Hassan Nasrallah, leader of Iran’s terrorist proxy Hezbollah, are hailed as pivotal end times players, whose rise was predicted in Islamic scriptures.

The same goes for Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadenijad, who the video says will conquer Jerusalem prior to the Mahdi’s coming.

"I think it’s a very grave development," Mideast expert Joel Rosenberg, author of The Twelfth Imam, told CBN News, "because it gives you a window into the thinking of the Iranian leadership: that they believe the time for war with Israel may be even sooner than others had imagined."

Kahlili says The Coming is Near will soon be distributed by the Iranian regime throughout the Middle East. He explained that their goal is to instigate further uprisings in Arab countries.

Get ready for some interesting times.

Shame we have a spineless dope in the WH right now. Doesn’t really inspire confidence.

It is interesting that the coast guard did not carry party line on this (it took a long time for their feelings to get out). i wonder if someone is going to loose his or her (cg) job?

Coast Guard Rips WH for ‘Muted’ Oil Spill Response


BP oil disaster report slams Obama administration for failing to set up ‘effective’ communications system….. Several layers of review and approval by the White House and (Department of Homeland Security) prevented timely and effective crisis communications and hindered the Coast Guard’s ability to … (keep) stakeholders informed about the status of the response," the report reads, adding that "accurate and timely messaging from the response organization improves transparency with the public."

what say you?

Coast Guard Rips BHO Regime for ‘Muted’ Oil Spill Response

While Slowing BP Oil Spill, Administration Slowed Flow Of Information Too, Claims Coast Guard Report
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011…s-coast-guard/

Quote:

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration failed to set up an "effective" communications system during last year’s BP oil spill and threatened its own credibility by "severely restricting" the release of "timely, accurate information," according to a newly released report commissioned by the U.S. Coast Guard.

Quietly posted on the Coast Guard’s website two weeks ago, the report offers the first major assessment of the federal government’s communications efforts during the worst oil spill in U.S. history.
Quote:

Another source involved with the oil spill response said he knew of at least one press release that was not immediately sent out due to fears it could upset environmental activists.

Hmmm, can you imagine if there were ever a nuclear accident (see: Japan) under the BHO regime in this country… oh the fun, games and 3am type calls that would be put on hold and told to call back later. 😉

Susan G. Komen contributes to Planned Parenthood so Latina Komen Advisor Resigned

By

‘"In 2003, Komen Affiliates awarded $38.4 million in grants to support community outreach programs, including 21 grants to their local Planned Parenthood chapters totaling more than $475,000. (Kristin Kelly, Public Relations Manager, The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation)

snip

Four days ago Eve Sánchez Silver, a charter member of The Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation’s National Hispanic/Latina Advisory Council, (SGK) received an article from a colleague which suggested that SGK is currently funding Planned Parenthood.

She thought it was a lie. It wasn’t.

As a two-time breast cancer survivor and charter member of SGK she had quieted her personal convictions to work with a determined freedom, within The National Hispanic/Latina Advisory Council, towards the eradication of breast cancer as a life-threatening disease, and, with the other honorable multi-cultural councils of SGK. She was honored, purposeful and committed to The SGK Foundation.

Upon investigating the allegations that SGK was indeed funding Planned Parenthood through affiliate grants, she resigned from SGK, canceling several speaking engagements around the country and resigning as well from her own beloved council.

"As a Christian and life affirming citizen I can not reconcile The Foundation’s decision to affirm life with one hand and support its destruction with the other." Says Silver.

Pro-Choice Colleagues Agreed

"Pro-choice colleagues I spoke with agreed, wondering why Komen was not using its resources to fund more grass-roots initiatives, instead of handing money to a huge, established organization like Planned Parenthood."

"It makes me wonder what other abortion related agendas SGK may be supporting, like the black-out on the 16 statistically significant epidemiological studies linking abortion to breast cancer. Is one hand washing the other?"

snips from http://www.priestsforlife.org/articl…dvisor-resigns

The next time you think about running for Susan G. Komen, think again. You might want to support another organization that fights breast cancer.

The above is from 2004, but it spells it out.
