Youtube is busy with a Bush booing video at the top of the list as we speak. Some baseball function he attended.

The interesting thing is more that it is being put up by someone called FeizShakir. Yup .. one of them zionist people creating chaos again. Could also be a buddhist, but I think the name is a giveaway.

Half a million hits in a day? .. I think someone is pushing the stats to get it to the top !

Miguel, LiL Olde, Canuck, la Wedgie, Infidelia, et alia...

I just emailed a Stateside buddy about the terrible state of public schools here in the Land of Smiles: it is theoretically possible to give a child a failing grade, but it is PRACTICALLY impossible. "Makes the student look bad, teacher look bad, school look bad and the student and parents are unhappy!"

So when I see pain on a child's face, pain of non-understanding, 'being lost', NOT GETTING IT...

AND I'm forbidden to contact the parents

AND I'm forbidden to award the grade earned,

no child is left behind in the rush to enforce mediocrity, reinforce the whole classroom of students' their perception that 'the system for YOU OLD PEOPLE is CORRUPT and UNCARING!" (Yes! It IS, KID!) and no child is unscathed by this corrosive, state-mandated deception!

/urk!

Good morning! A foggy 55 degrees in Chambodia as we await a whole heap of rain. Baby slept from 11:30 to 5:00 this morning. Whoohoo! Breakthrough!

As for beer, I currently have a case of Sam Adams and another of Sierra Nevada Pale Ale in the larder. In my youth, Old Style was my cheap beer of choice, but you can't get it in Georgia, which is probably a good thing on balance.

Then there's Falstaff. I fondly recall the brewery at the Chicago end of the skyway with the grain elevators painted to look like a Brobdingnagian six pack.

81 Lucius Septimius  Tue, Apr 1, 2008 4:39:13am

re: #68 Karridine

Ah yes, the joys of "constructivist education." You begin with the notion that all children know everything they need to know and you simply "build" on that; what this teaches is a hatred of specialist knowledge (since knowledge is power, anyone who possesses it is immediately a tyrant) and a hostility towards learning (learning requires admitting you don't know something, which is the converse of constructivist programming).

All the talk about "standards" merely obscured the real issue facing public education -- the anti-intellectualism at the root of American intellectual "theory." Hofstetter correctly identified the source of the problem fifty years ago in his discussion of John Dewey in Anti-Intellectualism in America Life. Nearly 200 years ago Tocqueville diagnosed the danger to intellectual life pregnant in American egalitarianism. So it's not like we haven't been warned. But too many people, including Bush, seemed to think it was possible to change the institution from within, without taking the time to consider the extent to which the institution itself is the problem.

What the Bush administration seemed not to understand is that the real problem with public education lies in the schools of education and their death grip on the accreditation process. In Georgia, the Public Service Commission supervises teacher education and certification, and the review boards are entirely staffed with professional educrats from the state colleges whose entire goal is to perpetuate the NEA dogma.

The only solution to public education, it seems to me, is to ban the NEA as a criminal conspiracy, shut down all schools of education, and force teacher to take real academic subjects. Oh, and "developmental psych" courses shouldn't count towards the degree.

Want a good foundation for education? Read John Locke's Thoughts Concerning Education as well as Nathan Tarkov's commentary on it, Locke's Education for Liberty.

Yo CIA & Right Side.

Get ready to hurl:


Obama is the change that America has tried to hide
Alice Walker


Only one candidate offers the radical departure for the 21st century the US needs, for its own sake and the rest of the world's


I have come home from a long stay in Mexico to find - because of the presidential campaign, and especially because of the Obama-Clinton race for the Democratic nomination - a new country existing alongside the old. On any given day we, collectively, become the goddess of the three directions and can look back into the past, look at ourselves just where we are, and take a glance, as well, into the future. It is a space with which I am familiar.

When I joined the freedom movement in Mississippi in my early 20s, it was to come to the aid of sharecroppers, like my parents, who had been thrown off the land they'd always known - the plantations - because they attempted to exercise their "democratic" right to vote. I wish I could say white women treated me and other black people a lot better than the men did, but I cannot. It seemed to me then, and it seems to me now, that white women have copied all too often the behaviour of their fathers and their brothers. In the south, especially in Mississippi, and before that, when I worked to register voters in Georgia, the broken bottles thrown at my head were gender-free.

I made my first white women friends in college; they loved me and were loyal to our friendship, but I understood, as they did, that they were white women and that whiteness mattered.

I am a supporter of Barack Obama because I believe he is the right person to lead the United States at this time. He offers a rare opportunity for the country and the world to do better. It is a deep sadness to me that many of my feminist white women friends cannot see him, cannot hear the fresh choices toward movement he offers. That they can believe that millions of Americans choose Obama over Clinton only because he is a man, and black, feels tragic to me.

When I have supported white people, it was because I thought them the best to do the job. If Obama were in any sense mediocre, he would be forgotten by now. He is, in fact, a remarkable human being, not perfect but humanly stunning, like King was and like Mandela is. He is the change America has been trying desperately and for centuries to hide, ignore, kill. The change it must have if we are to convince the rest of the world that we care about people other than our (white) selves.

True to my inner goddess of the three directions, however, this does not mean I agree with everything Obama stands for. We differ on important points, probably because I am older; I am a woman and person of three colours (African, Native American, European); I was raised in the south; and, when I look at the world after 64 years of life, there is not one person I wish to see suffer.

I want a grown-up attitude to Cuba, for instance, a country and people I love. I want an end to the war immediately, and I want the soldiers to be encouraged to destroy their weapons and drive themselves out of Iraq. I want the Israeli government to be made accountable for its behaviour to the Palestinians, and I want the people of the US to cease acting as if they don't understand what is going on. But most of all I want someone with the confidence to talk to anyone, "enemy" or "friend", and this Obama has shown he can do.

It is hard to relate what it feels like to see Mrs Clinton (I wish she felt self-assured enough to use her own name) referred to as "a woman" while Barack Obama is always referred to as "a black man". One would think she is just any woman, but she is not. She carries all the history of white womanhood in the US in her person; it would be a miracle if we, and the world, did not react to this fact.

145 BabbaZee  Tue, Apr 1, 2008 5:21:37am

A major research institution has recently announced the discovery of the heaviest element yet known to science.

The new element has been named Governmentium.

Governmentium (GV) has one neutron, 25 assistant neutrons, 88 deputy neutrons, and 198 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an atomic mass of 312.

These 312 particles are held together by forces called morons, which are surrounded by vast quantities of lepton-like particles called peons.

Since Governmentium has no electrons, it is inert: however, it can be detected, because it impedes every action with which it comes into contact. A minute amount of Governmentium can cause an action that would normally take less than a second to take over four days to complete.

Governmentium has a normal half-life of 4 years. It does not decay, but instead undergoes a reorganization in which a po rtion of the assistant neutrons and deputy neutrons exchange places. In fact, Governmentium's mass will actually increase over time, since each reorganization will cause more morons to become neutrons, forming isodopes.

This characteristic of moron promotion leads some scientists to believe that Governmentium is formed whenever morons reach a critical concentration. This hypothetical quantity is referred to as critical morass. When catalyzed with money, Governmentium becomes Administratium... an element that radiates just as much energy as Governmentium since it has half as many peons but twice as many morons.

Arrested and imprisoned three times, escaped three times.

He was briefly reported yesterday as being captured (sorry - no link).

But he may very well have been the Taliban commander reported killed in this link.

Two new chemical elements have recently been discovered. Here for the first time is a description of their properties.

Element Name: WOMAN

Symbol: WO

Atomic Weight: (don't even go there!)

Physical Properties: Generally round in form. Boils at nothing and may freeze any time. Melts whenever treated properly. Very bitter if not used well.

Chemical properties: Very active. Highly unstable. Possesses strong affinity to gold, silver, platinum, and precious stones. Violent when left alone. Able to absorb great amounts of exotic food. Turns slightly green when placed next to a better specimen.

Usage: Highly ornamental. An extremely good catalyst for dispersion of wealth. Probably the most powerful income reducing agent known.

Caution: Highly explosive in inexperienced hands.

---

Element Name: MAN

Symbol: XY

Atomic Weight: (180 +/- 50)

Physical properties: Solid at room temperature,but gets bent out of shape easily. Fairly dense and sometimes flaky. Difficult to find a pure sample. Due to rust, aging samples are unable to conduct electricity as easily as young samples.

Chemical properties: Attempts to bond with WO any chance it can get. Also tends to form strong bonds with itself. Becomes explosive when mixed with Kd (Element: Child) for prolonged period of time.

Usage: None known. Possibly good methane source. Good samples are able to produce large quantities on command.

Caution: In the absence of WO, this element rapidly decomposes and begins to smell.

Corrie Ten Boom to be Honored by Israel


We’ve just been notified that on April 15 the Ambassador of Israel in the Netherlands will hold special ceremony of the Dutch committee of Yad Vashem at the Town Hall of Haarlem in which Corrie ten Boom’s father, Casper ten Boom and her sister, Betsie ten Boom, will be admitted into Yad Vashem’s list of the Righteous Gentiles Among the Nations.Corrie ten Boom and Oscar Schlinder are already in the Hall of the Righteous Gentiles.

Casper ten Boom, Corrie’s father, gave his life saving 800 Jews. The Ten Boom Clock Shop was an escape route on the way to Palestine, from the Nazi Holocaust for Jews.

When the Nazi’s arrested the Ten Boom family, Casper ten Boom was told he would not be arrested and could go home as long as he would promise not to save any more Jews. Casper’s response was, “I would consider it an honor to give my life for the Jewish people If I go home today, tomorrow I will open my door again to any Jew in need who knocks.”

Betsie ten Boom also died at the hands of the Nazis in Ravensbrook concentration camp. Corrie ten Boom’s writings were greatly influenced by her sister Betsie, whom she considered her inspiration.

On April 15, 1986, Dr. Mike Evans, with the assistance of caring Christians, purchased and restored the Clock Shop. It was opened as a witness of the love Christians have for the Jewish people. Since those days thousands have visited The Hiding Place worldwide. Ever since the Clock Shop opened to the public, every worker has volunteered without compensation, and no visitor has ever been charged to visit The Hiding Place.

Casper ten Boom led the family in a weekly prayer meeting for the peace of Jerusalem which began through his father 1844. It ended in 1994 when the family was arrested by the Nazi’s. The Jerusalem Prayer Team was launched in 2002 to continue on the Ten Boom’s prayer meeting. The Mayor of Jerusalem, Ehud Olmert, inaugurated the Jerusalem Prayer Team. It is now the largest Christian prayer organization in the world, with prayer movements in over 200 nations of the world.

"I want an end to the war immediately..."

Doesn't this nitwit realize that the only way wars end, "immediately" or otherwise, is when one of the warring parties SURRENDERS? Considering the fact that I haven't seen any indication of our enemy backing down from their declaration of war against us I guess this means she wants US to surrender, and "immediately" while we're at it.

Good Morning Lizards.

I see where Drudge has an article from some UK moonbat rag called The Independent declaring that the US in in another Great Depression.

USA 2008: The Great Depression

The article goes through the usual anti-US ranting worthy of the New York Times about food stamps, mortgage failures and unemployment, It wraps up with this:

And the next monthly job numbers, to be released this Friday, are likely to show 50,000 more jobs were lost nationwide in March, and the unemployment rate is up to perhaps 5 per cent

Some accrding to these geniuses, nearing a 5% unemployment rate equals "The Great Deprssion". Well, actually in the 1930's unemployment was near 25%, not 5%, so they got their heads up their butts there. But in any event, lets take a look at how the great UK is doing with unemployment, shall we?

UK Unemployment

March 19 2008 - The unemployment rate remained at 5.2% - down 0.1% over the quarter and down 0.3% on last year. 29.46 million people were in work in the period November to January according to the labour force survey (LFS). This is the highest on record, up by 166,000 on the quarter, and up by 367,000 on the last year.

So, per The Independent, a 5.2% unemployment rate in the UK is apparently just fine cause they do not mention it, but an unemployment in the US that may be nearing 5% equals The Great Depression.

re: #126 BabbaZee

Another one of my favourite artists bites the dust. Why are they all such idiots?!

She writes of Hillary Clinton: "How dishonest it is, to try to make her innocent of her racial inheritance."

So being white carries genetic guilt? A white person's character or experience doesn't count?

Except: "I can easily imagine Obama sitting down and talking to any leader - or any person - in the world, with no baggage of past servitude or race supremacy to mar their talks."

Does his black genetic innocence cancel out -- absolve him of -- his white genetic guilt?

Obama's white ancestors owned black slaves and his black ancestors were not enslaved, so shouldn't he carry the same racial inheritance as Mrs. Clinton? Or does it only matter that he is brown?

And what is this lie: "Even if Obama becomes president, our country is in such ruin it may be beyond his power to lead us to rehabilitation."

Yes, racist America is in ruins, Alice Walker, and that's why you have a university education and are one of the best-selling, most-admired modern American writers. Cry me a river.

It's not just a different time..it's a different world..

.WAYCROSS, GA -- It's the type of news you don't expect to hear coming out of an elementary school. Nine third grade students suspended at Center Elementary in Waycross for an alleged plot to attack their teacher.

"This plot was uncovered at the point that something dangerous was brought to the school," says Lt. Dwayne Caswell with Waycross Police.

Police say the students were hatching a plan to harm their teacher Friday morning. They even brought items from home to carry out the plan.

"They had a broken steak knife, a crystal paper weight, toy handcuffs, several items and tape and stuff," says Lt. Caswell.

Ware County School officials say a classmate told the principal about one of the students bringing a weapon to school. The discovery was later made that more students were in on the plot. The school says it’s a matter they are not taking lightly.

I urge you to help Raise Awareness of all forms of enviro-nitwit-ism, too, by:

*Cranking up your thermostats.

*Returning your CFLs.

*Protesting PETA’s animal cruelty and animal rights/environmental terrorism.

*Purchasing a carbon debit package.

*Informing your local public school teacher of Al Gore’s electric bill before he/she attempts to cram “An Inconvenient Truth” down your kid’s throat.

*Reproducing!

*Sending your favorite SUV-basher to visit The Concourse of Hypocrisy.

*And using as much toilet paper as you damned well please, guilt-free, while humming Sheryl Crow’s “All I Wanna Do:”

On the edge of Sadr City, where a vehicle ban was still being enforced, an Iraqi army officer stared at a giant mural of Sadr's father, a grand ayatollah who died under the regime of Saddam Hussein and the man for whom the Baghdad district is named. "We need 100 years to be a strong military," the officer said.

As an explosion sounded in the distance, the Iraqi officer said the Mahdi Army had better weapons than the government soldiers did, including rocket-propelled grenades and newer machine guns. He acknowledged that some policemen from Sadr City were active members of the militia and that others had offered their tacit support. As a result, the Iraqi army had to rely on the U.S. military to push back the militia in the district of 2.5 million people, the officer said as a U.S. Bradley fighting vehicle swiveled its cannon at shoppers passing by the entrance to the neighborhood.

Inside Sadr City, a policeman navigated the roads, which had been booby-trapped with bombs in case the Americans tried to enter. He said the militia planted the explosives at night and detonated them by remote control. But he wasn't worried.

He pointed to an area where he said a U.S. armored vehicle had burned, sending flames into a police station and market. "When they see a police car coming, they don't detonate the explosive because they don't see police as targets," the officer said.

I think a lot of it is ripped off via Jung -- the whole archetype concept, but with three instead of four. Plus there was some French anthropologist years ago -- Georges Dumezil -- who argued that all societies worship some form of "three." He found triads, which he identified as marking "three functions" in society. Of course his theory was so broad in its definitions as to be practically meaningless, but lots of folks picked up on it.

It's all nonsense, but lots o' folks buy into it. Package something as "ancient" lore and fools will snatch it up. Vide "Cracker Barrel."

re: #258 Lucius Septimius

I think a lot of it is ripped off via Jung -- the whole archetype concept, but with three instead of four. Plus there was some French anthropologist years ago -- Georges Dumezil -- who argued that all societies worship some form of "three." He found triads, which he identified as marking "three functions" in society. Of course his theory was so broad in its definitions as to be practically meaningless, but lots of folks picked up on it.

It's all nonsense, but lots o' folks buy into it. Package something as "ancient" lore and fools will snatch it up. Vide "Cracker Barrel."

So long as it does not derive from the Bible (as far as they know)
they are willing to worship ANY FUCKING THING

But whip out the GOD of Abraham or Jesus on them
and they go all apoplectic.

You know what that says to me?

Radical Muslims engaged in holy war -- jihadis -- are waging a worldwide campaign to advance their goals, particularly in moderate Arab states, in Russia, and in the liberal democracies of the West, according to Walid Phares, author of "The Confrontation: Winning the War Against Future Jihad."


Phares, in a recent lecture at the conservative Heritage Foundation, said the jihadis' international campaign should not be seen as a hodgepodge reaction to Western foreign policy but as a structured and well-organized movement.


For instance, Phares said that extremist Muslims have successfully engaged in the war of ideas and penetrated the educational and policy centers of Western democracies.


"Jihadis have inserted into the Western education system tens of millions of dollars in campuses, think tanks, and beyond," said Phares. "That has created a systemic change that created one or two generations of analysts and experts who impact decision-makers who did not see the threat coming because they were under the influence of the money."

The Greater and Lesser Tunb Islands and Abu Musa are located in the Perisan Gulf near the Strait of Hormuz.

Iran attacked the Arab League and UAE on Sunday over the issue of three Persian Gulf islands of the Greater and the Lesser Tunbs and Abu Musa.

Two Muslim clerics with outspoken backgrounds are among the speakers at St. Cloud State University’s Islam Awareness Week, which starts today.One of them is Siraj Wahhaj, who will speak on “What is Jihad?” at 2 p.m. Thursday in the Atwood Memorial Center Theatre.Wahhaj, an American-born imam of a mosque in Brooklyn, N.Y., is on the executive committee of the Muslim Alliance in North America, a network of organizations addressing needs in American Muslim communities.In 1991, speaking to an Islamic association of Texas, Wahhaj called Operation Desert Storm “one of the most diabolical plots ever in the annals of history,” and that the war to oust Iraq from Kuwait was “part of a larger plan, to destroy the greatest challenge to the Western world, and that’s Islam.”

Wahhaj, while praised for combating drugs in New York and being the first Muslim to offer a prayer to open a session of Congress, has also appeared on a government list of unindicted co-conspirators in the 1993 World Trade Center bombings.

Another American-born Islamic cleric appearing at St. Cloud is Khalid Yasin. He will speak on “Islam: A Way of Life” at 7:15 p.m. Wednesday at the Atwood Memorial Center Ballroom.

The jihad takes many roads to enslave the world...and the world smiles at it...

A continued boom in bank products compliant with Islam has spurred plans to set up a new financial institution in Switzerland based on the tenets of the faith.National Bank of Kuwait, one of the Middle East’s largest banks, is planning an Islamic private bank in Switzerland in partnership with a Saudi Arabian institution.The move comes as Islamic banking continues to see strong growth, in defiance of the credit crunch. Industry assets have grown by about 20 percent to $500bn (€316bn) since last summer, according to Moody’s, the ratings agency.NBK, the third-largest bank in the Arab world in terms of assets, had already applied for regulatory approval, Ibrahim Dabdoub, chief executive officer said.He declined to name the Saudi bank and said the deal would require approval from Swiss, Kuwaiti and Saudi authorities.The Islamic institution would target high-net worth individuals from the Persian Gulf region, which is currently awash with liquidity as it enjoys an unprecedented oil-fuelled boom

Sudan gets bombers from China

Satellite photos have revealed that Sudan now has Chinese made A-5 fighter-bombers. The A-5 is a twin engine Chinese design based on the 1950s era Russian MiG-19 fighter... The 11 ton aircraft is armed with two 23mm cannon and can carry a ton of bombs, missiles or rockets. With a max payload, the A-5 can hit targets 400 kilometers from its base.

The A-5s are low tech enough that a MiG-21 pilot could handle it, and kill civilians in Darfur more efficiently than with the current improvised transport bombers.

It's Islam stupid!...

..In Fitna, Geert Wilders uses only five verses of the Koran to demonstrate the potential danger of Islam to a civilised world. These verses are (note the comments by eminent Koran scholars):
8:60 The Muslims should muster all their power and might, including steeds of war (tanks, planes, missiles...) to strike terror in the hearts of the unbelievers (by killing them—ibn Abbas).
47:4 When the believers meet the unbelievers they should smite at unbelievers’ necks (when you fight against them, cut them down totally with your swords—ibn Kathir).
8:39 Fight until there are no more unbelievers (non-Muslims) and tumult (this verse overrides all other verses on fighting the infidels, including the Jews and the Christians); if they accept Islam then leave them alone.
4:56 Unbelievers will be cast in fire, their skins roasted often, skins changed often for more roasting (the skin will be roasted seventy thousand time every day; the new skin will be as white as paper—ibn Kathir).
4:89 Seize and slay the renegades (i.e., apostates of Islam) wherever you find them. (Maududi 4/118: This is the verdict on those hypocritical confessors of faith who belong to a belligerent, non-Muslim nation and actually participate in acts of hostility against the Islamic state).
It is clear Greet Wilders did not present anything original. He merely re-stated the contents of the Koran, forcefully depicted with true pictures of those verses in action.

The Islamic Ummah is now furious, why an infidel portrays the true colour of Islam? In this chorus of peaceful Islam, Ban Ki-moon, the Secretary General of the United Nations has also joined in. Predictably, the peaceful Islam has promptly issued the threat of murder of Geert Wilders and the employees of Live Leak, the website that hosted the premiere. It had to off-load Fitna to protect the lives of its employees. These are just mundane jobs of Islam—the standard practices, the world is now so used to these peaceful acts of Islam that they [these threats] do not at all surprise anyone

True, many east Africans have some Arab genes, as do many North Africans and West Africans. But you're missing the point. It's not Obama's genes that are the problem. It's his ideology. Beginining with his hippy-dippy mother, to his Muslim birth (under Sharia law, Obama IS Muslim, no matter what he says), to his Marxist college education, to his racist "black centric" pseudo-christianity: Obama is ideologically anti-American.

Oklahoma bill to allow honorably discharged soldiers, former LEOs and citizens who have gone through a concealed carry program PLUS an additional 72 hours of CLEET certified training to carry a concealed firearm for self-defense on campus was shot down.

Though, to keep from taking an ACTUAL stand on it, the democrats have just said that the committee that needs to hear this bill just... won't.

Democrats called on many images to show why soldiers cannot be trusted with firearms, such as Timothy McVeigh and the Unibomber.

A University of Okahoma spokesman said that they oppose the bill because they believe that the goal of any university is to make things safe for the students. (and, therefore, he believes that soldiers are unsafe, a slam on all military) I guess they view the U of West Virginia as safe. . . and Columbine. . . and every other school that has constant non-gun related violence. . .

You don't make things safe by disarming the law-abiding citizens, you sorry sacks of [censored].

We're all going to suffer. We're all going to pay. The University of Oklahoma had a suicide bombing in the last year or so, a guy (connected to Islam) who tried to get into the stadium with his bomb in his backpack... later when he was denied entry, blew himself up on a bench.

Gangs are trying to take over OKC proper, trying to take back bricktown, trying to move into the surrounding neighborhoods. Even in the nice part of town I live in, there are occassionally shootings on a nearby walking trail.

But yes, Democrats... disarm us. . .. for our safety . .

The Islamic Republic of Afghanistan...

KABUL - TV programs that show dancing and other un-Islamic practices would be banned under a resolution passed by Afghanistan’s lower house of Parliament.

The decision came after the Tolo TV channel showed a dance routine on an Afghan film awards program. The Information and Culture Ministry condemned the scene: “Dancing by men and women together was completely against the culture of the Afghan, Muslim society.”

The parliamentary resolution said dancers should not be shown on TV, and un-Islamic scenes should be cut from Indian TV series broadcast in Afghanistan, said lawmaker Din Mohammad Azimi.

Good morning all. Haven't been around much lately. HAVE been doing some lurking, and commenting only when necessary. :^) .
Through Lent and now into the Easter season, I have taken time for meditation and reflection.
We (NO, not each of you individually. The human race.) have once again lost the fear of G-d. We have 5,000 years of recorded history to tell us and to show us that EVERY time we forget the face of G-d, his wrath comes down upon us.
Look around. A mile high building(Tower of Babel anyone)? Obamessiah (False prophets anyone)? Homosexuality and other perversities of the TGL's (Sodom and Gommorah anyone)? Internal weakness leading to collapse occurring before our very eyes of the US, western Europe, etc. (Roman Empire anyone)?
And what of our 'prophets'? Geert Wilders, Hirsi Ali, Dr. Wafa Sultan, Noni(sp.?) Darwish. Legal action and death threats against them.
Isaiah and Jeremiah among others brought the message from G-d to his people when they strayed. And when there was no repentance, G-d brought his punishment. Our generation/civilization, like many others before, chooses to ignore our history.
People here in the US fear another attack? Fear economic collapse? I expect it. We know what to expect becuase the Book of Revelations tells us. Rev. 13: 9-10

9He who has an ear, let him hear.
10If anyone is to go into captivity,
into captivity he will go.
If anyone is to be killed[c] with the sword,
with the sword he will be killed. This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of the saints.


Also Rev.13: 15-17

15He was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that it could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. 16He also forced everyone, small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on his right hand or on his forehead, 17so that no one could buy or sell unless he had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of his name.

Look around. Islam anyone?
During this election season, look at our candidates. Among them and our sitting elected bodies (state or Fed) are there any righteous men or women?
I think I'll spend my time and efforts fighting the muslim assault on freedom and making peace with myself and G-d.

On Monday, a sessions judge in Mumbai sentenced the 26-year-old Mohammad Moin Khan to ten years of jail, bringing to an end a tormented chapter in the father's life when he had repeatedly to choose between freedom for his son and justice for an 18-month-old child he had seen only once.

Remember that a big reason why we have a right to keep AND BEAR firearms is to protect ourselves, not just from predatory animals, but also from predatory criminals and a predatory government.

The first group is protected by PETA, the second group is protected by lawyers and the third group is protected by the government.

We're the only ones who protect ourselves, but that gets hard when the government rules over us and has open range to do as they wish.

A MAN in his thirties was racially abused as he took a short cut through Vale Park in the early hours of Saturday morning.
The white man was beaten and hit several times with a bottle by a gang of youths at about 1.30am on Saturday.

He was approached by a gang of between ten and 15 Asian youths who surrounded him and shouted racial abuse before repeatedly punching the man in the face.

Det Con Elaine Bartlett, Investigating Officer, said: "This was a particularly brutal and callous attack on a lone man.

I spent the weekend with a Troop of Boy Scouts at the rifle and shotgun ranges... an amazing experience.
There's more than one reason that the left is so anti- Scouting.

One small lad (don't know his age- he's smaller than my 12 yr. old) broke his first 22 straight sporting clays, and it was the first time he had fired a shotgun! After that, all of the uproar from cheers and congratulations (as well as the beating from that 20 Ga.) began to take their toll, and he started missing a few.

Two years ago, a different boy in the same troop broke 50/50!
Most men can't get anywhere near that score with years of practice!
The same lad was almost perfect on the rifle range as well, with near one- hole groups at 25 yards with iron sights, with a community range rifle with tens of thousands of rounds fired through it.

Being with those kids reaffirms a lot of my faith in our future.

Posted 04/01/2008 ET
Updated 04/01/2008 ET

As the U.S. and Western markets plummet and the U.S. dollar continues its free fall, sovereign wealth funds (SWF) gobble up prime financial institutions, industries and real estate in the U.S. and the West. Given concerns regarding the political influence of such wealth, the U.S. Treasury, together with Abu Dhabi and Singapore, on March 20 signed an “Agreement on Principles for Sovereign Wealth Fund Investment.”

“SWF investment decisions should be based solely on commercial grounds, rather than to advance, directly or indirectly, the geopolitical goals of the controlling government,” according to the joint statement and accompanying policy principles. Feebly attempting to enforce this standard, it declared: “SWFs should make this statement formally as part of their basic investment management policies.”Meanwhile, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) Board of Directors on March 21 endorsed an SWF work agenda to develop — in coordination with them and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) –“a set of voluntary best practices.”

The pretense surrounding most international agreements matches the deceitful promotion of Middle Eastern SWF investments and Islamic banking as “ethical and socially responsible.”

In fact, “Islamic banking defies the separation between economics and religion,” according to USC King Faisal professor of Islamic Thought Timur Kuran

re: #486 Occasional Reader

Second Amendment protection from government.

The desirability of citizens arming themselves against illegal search - or of revolution, for that matter - may seem dubious to modern Americans enjoying the benefits of a vigilant judiciary and police of a character far better than the soldiery known to our forefathers. But to 18th Century Americans, the course of pre- Revolution British policy only confirmed the necessity of every free citizen having access to arms: "to disarm the people"; that," said George Mason, "was the best and effectual way to enslave them." [40] This imagery of "enslavement" and the possession of arms as the guarantee against it appears throughout the writings of Sidney, Locke and their disciples up to and including the Founding Fathers forming a consistent theme consisting of the following propositions: every free man has an inalienable right to defend himself against robbery and murder - or enslavement, which partakes of both; the difference between a slave and a free man is the latter's possession of arms which allows him to exercise his right of self-defense; for government to disarm the citizen is not just to rob him of his property and liberty; it is the first step toward "enslaving" him, i.e., robbing him of all his property and all his liberties - which will inevitably follow once he has been disarmed. In America from the immediate pre-Revolutionary period through the debates over the Constitution, this equation of personal self- protection with resistance to tyranny - of self-protection against the slave trader to self-protection against "enslavement" by government - recurs again and again.

Or this:

"Government is instituted for the common good; for the protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness of the people; and not for profit, honor, or private interest of any one man, family, or class of men; therefore, the people alone have an incontestable, unalienable, and indefeasible right to institute government; and to reform, alter, or totally change the same, when their protection, safety, prosperity, and happiness require it."

Some years ago I went to a "contemporary theater" production with some friends, titled "The Goddess Awakens" or something along those lines. The theme was, indeed, that "ancient civilization" was actually all matriarchal and warm and fuzzy, but then these horrible patriarchal types came in with their big, angry penises and f**ked everything up. Afterwards, everyone was oohing an ahhing over the production. I, of course, was the annoying guy asking, "so what civilization are they talking about here, exactly?

Obama Shooting Himself in the Foot with Anti-Gun Stance

In his answers to the 1998 Illinois State Legislative National Political Awareness Test, Obama said he favored a ban on “the sale or transfer of all forms of semi-automatic weapons.”

By definition, this would include all pistols ever made, from .22 target pistols used in the Olympics to rarely-fired pistols kept in nightstands and sock drawers for the defense of families, and every pistol in between. Obama’s strident stand would also ban all semi-automatic rifles and shotguns, whatever their previously legal purpose.

In 1999, Obama proposed to make it a felony for the gun owner if a firearm stolen from his residence and used in a crime was not “securely stored” — effectively negating the homeowner’s right to self-defense.

That same year, Obama bravely voted “present” on a law that would require teens 15 and older to be tried as adults for firing weapons on or near school grounds. Obama also proposed the idea of banning businesses that sell firearms from operating within five miles of a park or school — restrictions that would treat gun shops worse than “adult” businesses trafficking in pornography.

From 1998-2001, Obama sat on the board of directors for the Joyce Foundation, a left-wing group which today funds grants to anti-gun organizations such as the Violence Policy Center (which advocates total handgun prohibition, reinstatement of the Clinton-era “assault weapons” ban, and the ban of other firearms), the Ohio Coalition Against Gun Violence (which favors the registration of all handguns, seeks to overturn Ohio’s “concealed carry” law, ban standard capacity magazines, and ban economical handguns along with many semi-automatic firearms based upon their appearance), and Handgun Free America (which advocates a complete ban on civilian handgun ownership).

All of these organizations seek to disarm law-abiding Americans. This is the idea of “change” that they share with Barack Obama.

re: #547 buzzsawmonkey

Graves is a good read. One can access his theories both in the form of his novels, such as "Hercules, My Shipmate," which is a re-telling of the story of Jason and the Quest for the Golden Fleece, and in his "Greek Myths," which used to be available from Penguin in a two-volume set, back when Penguin was producing pocket-sized paperbacks. The "Greek Myths" gives alternate versions of the various well-known myths, and some that are not well known, followed by footnotes with much bibliography and some fascinating commentary.

have them all


I don't always agree with Graves, by any means; I think his attempt to apply the same template to the Bible, as he does in the essay "Pharaoh's Chariot Wheels," misses the boat. But he is a passionate and thought-provoking writer.

I don't always agree with anyone, lol
Still
it is important to read it all
and then filter it
through the word of GOD
(the covenant)
and through yourself


You shall no longer take things at second or third hand, nor look through the eyes of the dead, nor feed on the spectres in books,
You shall not look through my eyes either, nor take things from me,
You shall listen to all sides and filter them from your self.

Trippers and askers surround me,

People I meet, the effect upon me of my early life or the ward and city I live in, or the nation,
The latest dates, discoveries, inventions, societies, authors old and new,
My dinner, dress, associates, looks, compliments, dues,
The real or fancied indifference of some man or woman I love,
The sickness of one of my folks or of myself, or ill-doing or loss or lack of money, or depressions or exaltations,
Battles, the horrors of fratricidal war, the fever of doubtful news, the fitful events;
These come to me days and nights and go from me again,
But they are not the Me myself.

Apart from the pulling and hauling stands what I am,
Stands amused, complacent, compassionating, idle, unitary,
Looks down, is erect, or bends an arm on an impalpable certain rest,
Looking with side-curved head curious what will come next,
Both in and out of the game and watching and wondering at it.

Backward I see in my own days where I sweated through fog with linguists and contenders,
I have no mockings or arguments, I witness and wait.

NEW YORK, Mar 31 (OneWorld) - Green groups are planning to celebrate April Fools Day Tuesday with a variety of actions designed to embarrass oil industry bosses gathering in Washington.

"Our political and corporate leaders have been fooling around with our future by refusing to take the bold action needed to avert a climate crisis," said Brianna Cayo-Cotter of the Energy Action Coalition, which has billed the event as "Fossil Fools Day."

Tuesday's protests will take place as chief executive officers (CEOs) of five major oil companies testify before a committee of the U.S. Congress that has called a hearing on energy issues and the threats caused by global warming.

re: #610 storagemanager

my point was...Ted hates Christians...the news floored me.

Remember Ted's gift of 1 Billion to the UN while back? It was made in increments of a number of years. Forbes or somebody analysed the deal.
Ted put the Billion in an escrow account, made the donations off the interest, took the tax deduction, then at the end of the deal still had the Billion.

I bet this is another tax shelter scheme.

GAH!
I have Fox on and they do this PSA : "Time for a Cool Change" . Moonbat Tom Petty sings the bar and then two idiot hipster kids start lecturing on how to save the ozone or the earf or some shit. Ever Heard it?
Today they actually go on about re-using plastic wrap and foil! No, this was no April fool. Hey you can wash it out and use it again! I know a guy who washes out his plastic bags-smart.
No asshole, it's not smart, it's called Salmonella- you can look it up. It's what hippy pigs get from living like monkeys and reusing old food wrap and trash bags that shoulda been thrown out.

For
the most part I think the State looks out for the State and we're
pretty much on our own. But releasing the kind of information that was
released in your situation may be actionable - meaning you might be
able to sue (and win) the State for giving out confidential information.
Just saying...

Haven't ruled it out. We are getting specific court orders locking down the info. Out of pocket expensive, an once of prevention.

THe idea being that we need to have special centers (like they've done in MN) to dispose of them.

They do this so that we dont' get concentrations of them in one spot, which is bad for the environment, what with the mercury and all.

So their solution? gather them all together and then dispose of them. That does exactly what they say they're trying to avoid. But they profit from it, especially since it is mandated.

Kind of like recycling trucks. Save the environment by throwing paper and plastic into a special container... then it is picked up by a seperate diesel truck, polluting the environment.

Greets and saluts from the NYC metro area. If you love visiting NJ state parks, you're going to be in for a rough time if Corzine and Trenton have their way, as they're looking to close a bunch of state parks (which are meant for the public to visit as they are our parks), to save all of roughly $5 million. That's right folks, in a budget where the state needs to cut billions of dollars in spending, they're deciding to limit the public's access to its own parks. Nice. Classy. They're still pushing new program spending, so instead of increasing spending elsewhere, keep spending constant. That idea never once enters the minds of the folks down in Trenton, which is why the state is in the mess that it is.

How many times in your life have you actually had to use a firearm to defend your right to speak?

I
am very pro-2nd Amendment. But the basic guarantee of your freedom is a
democratic government and the rule of law; not your guns.

Very true, what happens when the law breaks down or the government openly violates the law? When all legal recourse is exhausted. The test for the people rising against the government is the Declaration of Independence:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.


When such conditions are met is the not only the right of the people, but the duty of the people to reestablish a government of the people.

For my birthday I wish that all you lizards go to the Climate Change project website and "talk" to the interactive interview tool. It will ask you questions like:

"What do you think of when you hear the word - "environment"?

I told them that I think of political extremists who have hijacked the word to benefit themselves and their cronies and hurt the economy. I told them about our friend, building his house on a piece of property that had been in the family for 200+ years. When the inspector came to inspect the footings he noticed an old groundhog burrow, abandoned, within a few feet of the foundation. He told our friend that he would have to move his entire house.

Why? "Because something like a fox MIGHT come and use the abandoned burrow." This is New Jersey, cesspool of corruption and political payoffs. Our friend complained, but ultimately moved the house, and the footings, 20 feet.

This website is associated with Al Gore -mansion owner hypocritical preacher of energy conservation.

Phasers on full, Scotty - blast away! (Takes about 12 minutes - it says that it takes 30 minutes, but that must be for the liberals taking the survey.)

RUBBISH!
A study called "The Garbage Project"

Calculating the total annual volume or weight of garbage in the United States is difficult because there is, of course, no way one can actually measure or weigh more than a fraction of what is thrown out. All studies have had to take shortcuts.
I have seen (rates from) 2.9 - 8.0 lb/day ... Garbage Project studies of actual refuse reveal that even three pounds of garbage per person per day may be too high an estimate for many parts of the country.

Talk landfills and people will mention overpackaging (fast food usually) and diapers. Yet

In those eight tons of garbage and dirt cover there were fewer than sixteen pounds of fast-food packaging; in other words, only about a tenth of one percent (0.001) of the landfill's contents by weight consisted of fast-food packaging. Less than one percent (0.01) of the contents by weight was disposable diapers.

The main culprit? Paper. Newspapers, for a good part.

Deep within landfills, copies of that New York Times editorial about fast-food containers straining the capacity of the nation's landfills

LOL!

Of course, laws being passed to ban the use of words like bitch and ho... that's ok, hmm?

You're going against what the founding fathers specifically stated, and no amount of twisting of words is changing that.


Without firearms, there are NO Freedoms... there is no protection on the individual level.

Why have I not had to use my firearms to backup my words? Because my country is still free.

What, then, do you say about those who do NOT live in a free country?

Remember that these same founding fathers that you suggest would not have advocated the use of firearms against a government were some of the same who fought off the British.

Link here.

Even the wording of this backlash piece is depressing... because they have to stress that the rape victims were black. As if that should matter.

Of course, Sharpton has always had a soft spot for brutal, violent rapists. (See "Central Park Jogger Case".)

re: #862 buzzsawmonkey

This morning's NPR had yet another tale about "climate change." They couldn't stop the "global warming" from creeping in, as a variant, every sentence or two, though.

Basically, the tale was about how some single mom in Atlanta decided to move with her daughter to an inner-city loft apartment rather than live in the suburbs, and how this was improving their carbon footprint and fighting climate change global warming climate change. And how if everybody did this it would Help the Earth.

Now, I like living in the city. But this propaganda is really nauseating.

They can stand on their balcony and wave to Al Gore as he flies out of Atlanta airport on his way to cities around the globe on his private plane. To the elite - this is just as it should be.

ISSUES & SOLUTIONS

QUESTION: What are issues and recommendations for solutions that are unique to Muslim Americans?

1. A Law against harrassment of a Muslim women wearing Hijab at the Airport, DMV and other public arenas.

2. Institute a Law to allow Muslim Employees to take a hours off from work for Friday Jummah Prayer.

3. Make the 2 Eid's, recognized National Holidays on Calendars with days off from work.

4. Optional Halal meals in federal buildiings, public schools and colleges.

5. Provide prayer areas suitable for Salah and Jummah, in public and private facilities. (i.e. Malls, Airports, Universities and government buildings.)

6. Organize a Muslim American group to assist in recommendations for US foreign policy affecting majority Muslim countries.

Insane, 1.7% of the population is Jewish, only 0.6% are Moslem, yet hala foods are important, what about Kosher?

Change you Moslems can believe in?

The Axis of Evil, still alive & kicking...

The U.S. in recent bilateral talks reportedly gave Pyongyang a list of North Korean officials involved in the supply of nuclear technology to Syria, a suspicion the North denies.
A high-level diplomatic source on Monday said that the U.S. obtained the list of officials including nuclear engineers, who were involved in the supply of nuclear technology to Syria, through various intelligence networks. This persuaded the U.S. that the North Korea-Syrian nuclear connection did exist.

According to the source, it was chief U.S. nuclear negotiator Christopher Hill who gave the list to his North Korean counterpart Kim Kye-gwan during their latest nuclear talks. Kim denied knowing anything about it.

Did I mention, Obama want to "engage" Syria?
