Breitbart’s John Nolte Says Bill O’Reilly is Nuts, Pamela Geller Is Just Like Jesus

Nolte says Jesus was a vandal
Wingnuts • Views: 34,756

At Breitbart “News” tonight, deranged “editor” John Nolte (who doesn’t actually “edit” anything) denies he’s comparing hate group leader Pamela Geller to Jesus Christ, as he compares Pamela Geller to Jesus Christ: Dear Bill O’Reilly: Jesus Insulted Religion a Lot More Than Pamela Geller Has.

Jesus provoked, attacked, insulted, divided, offended and called evil by its name at every opportunity.

Jesus was a lawbreaker, a vandal, a name-caller, a provocateur who taunted those who perverted a religion to control and oppress and mislead others.

Does any of this sound at all familiar?

When brutal savages told Christ he could not do something, He did it. When brutal savages told Martin Luther King he could not do something, he did it.

I am in no way comparing Pam Geller, who I do not know, to Jesus Christ. No one, not even Martin Luther King, compares to Jesus Christ. That’s not my point.

My point is that Christ is our example here on Earth. He showed us how to fight for a righteous cause against evil, and there is no question Pam Geller is coloring well within those lines. She is also willingly risking her own life.

Our media elites are attacking Geller over cartoons!

Imagine their reaction if she walked into a radical mosque, overturned a few tables, and called them a den of vipers.

What would Jesus do, indeed.

Nolte is freaking out because Bill O’Reilly and Fox News have apparently made an editorial decision to distance themselves from hate-spewer Pamela Geller. Or to pretend to distance themselves from her, at any rate, because other Fox figureheads like Sean Hannity continue to promote the divisive, bigoted ideology she represents.

Funny. All the versions of the NT I have read mentioned nothing about “brutal savages”.

Not that the NT is accurate - it’s anything but good history as we understand historiography today.

The Roman elite were the high society of the day.
Roman officers were educated.
Sanhedrin were the upper crust of local society.
The Pharisees were the educated elite of local society.

The only “savages” were the rebels… er… those who became the “Christians” of the first century.

Geller and Jesus are both Jewish. Jesus turns water into wine. Geller loves to drink, so yes, it works.

She is also willingly risking her own life.

It’s more like she’s willingly risking other people’s lives. The extra security and police her events mandate carry the bulk of the actual burden for her.

From the article:

My point is that Christ is our example here on Earth. He showed us how to fight for a righteous cause against evil, and there is no question Pam Geller is coloring well within those lines. She is also willingly risking her own life. […]

So it was cool when Jesus was fighting against the evil Jew vipers (Pharisees), therefore Geller, who’s Jewish… wait, what?

I knew I shouldn’t have peeked back in here.

Yeah, I was wondering where he pulled that “brutal savages” from. Seems like he got Geller’s transit posters confused with the Bible.

re: #3 freetoken

Well, it’s not quite as simple as that. You do have to take into account the various historical events (rebellions, destruction of the temple, the arguments between followers of Paul vs followers of James as to the “correct” path, the falling out between the synagogue goers that believed that Jesus was the messiah and those who didn’t and the desire to avoid offending Roman sensibilities once it was obvious that the world wouldn’t end during the lifetimes of those present at the Teaching) lead to some very distinctly non-historical takes in the later written gospels. There are considerable differences between the earliest works (certain of the epistles, the Didache) and the later written gospels. That they maintain as much in common as they do is a testament (heh) to how well oral traditions preserve teachings in older cultures.

Noticed that as well. BRUTAL SAVAGES. Let’s dehumanize an entire population/ethnic/social/religious group just because we don’t like them. Gee, I wonder who else has done that in the past and who is doing it know?

Yeah, I know. Pulling a Godwin. But in this case, I think it is appropriate.

I had my first run-in with a genuine Geller fan today. It was weird and creepy. These people really do live in their own world.

I pointed out her denials of Srebrenica. Her praise of Stalin’s forced relocation and genocide of Chechen Muslims. Her ties to Euro far-right fascists and white supremacists. And so on.

I got told that I was making up lies to slander and defame her because she’s an anti-jihad activist and I’m a terrorist sympathizing, ISIS loving librul commie.

What. The. Fuck.

FBI Director James Comey said on Thursday that the bureau had learned Simpson might be traveling to the “Draw Muhammad” event and sent a warning a few hours ahead of time, though the FBI didn’t have evidence of a plot, according to NBC News.

Comey added that he didn’t think the officer who ultimately shot Simpson and Soofi Nadi, the second gunman, had seen the bulletin.

Online, over at Mediaite.

Some thread about Pam, can’t remember which one. Person comes in spamming every conceivable debunked conspiracy about Muslims (No go zones! Sharia law in Michigan! Etc.) and video after video after video of propaganda supposedly making Pam’s case and saying that people just hate her because she’s anti-jihad.

I point out all the creepy shit Pam has said and all the stuff she supports. And I’m the one making shit up, apparently. Very, very weird.

Honestly, it’s hard to tell sometimes. Glenn Beck, being a former shock jock, has probably honed his shtick onto performance art. But he’s so convincing in his delivery, that one could also assume he’s totally bonkers. Same with Rushbo. Like Beck, he knows what sells, so he offers his listeners just what they want. But Rushbo probably believes at least half of what he spouts. Beck probably says stuff like, “that’ll hold those little fuckers for awhile” once he’s off air.

So they knew there were threats on their event and went through it anyhow. Great job Pam. Really, she has a right to free speech but it seems to me that she doesn’t care if people get hurt because of what she does. She’s a walking example of the person yelling fire in the theater.

I would hate to think it were true, but if someone (besides the shooters) had been killed, Geller would have been perfectly happy to use their death as justification for even more hate speech.

27 HappyWarrior  May 8, 2015 8:38:33pm

I’d like her friends to stop acting like she’s some champion of freedom. She’s totally against Muslims having the right to worship in this country which is a freedom. Not to mention she’s an ally of Eurofascists who aren’t exactly friendly to speech by those who aren’t Eurofascists and of course she’s defended Serbian war criminals on many an ocassion. Her hatred directed at Muslims is no different than the hatred directed at Jews and blacks by Neo-Nazis (who she is allied with despite her being Jewish) and the KKK.

28 Ian G.  May 8, 2015 8:38:34pm

Heh. I posted the Geller-Choudary screaming match on my Facebook profile and compared it to Jerry Springer and referred to both Geller and Choudary as “fascist maniacs”. Someone was utterly appalled that I would compared Geller to Choudary (I guess this guy is a fan of hers, he leans right, but I always figured that it was a Wall street Swinging dick kind of right, not a paranoid “the Muslims are coming!” kind of right).

So I went to look for incriminating stuff on Geller, and boy, it’s really easy to find her insane gibberish defending the persecuted martyrs Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic, and her sweeping denial of the massacre at Srebrenica. She doesn’t do any talking out of both sides of her mouth, she screams the genocide denial from the top of her lungs at her blog!

The Karadzic and Mladic defenses I think show you how disgusting she really is. I hope you do get a response. Maybe this guy will realize that Geller is just as bad as Choudary. Really how pathetic is Hannity to pull that kind of crap? I guess Hannity’s too afraid to find an American Muslim who unlike Sean and Pam actually respects the tradition of church and state being separated. Really if you’re as worried about Shariah as they claim to be, then you shouldn’t favor making church and state together. Well if you’re an as dangerous religious fanatic as people like Choundary are, I guess you would.

Of course she would. It would have proven her point (all Muslins are killers!), despite the fact that The Shrieking Harpie had tossed gobbets of red meat into a dog park.

She’s a provocateur with no shame or conscience. Geert Wilders must have had a spontaneous ejaculation in his pants, being in the company of such a perfect fellow traveller.

You know, Texas’ economy is already in deep doo-doo with oil prices where they are. The last thing they should be doing is making an ass of themselves in front of the other big pillar of their economy, the military. Seriously, how many jobs/how much money does Ft. Hood alone pour into that state annually?

Which is odd, given the military presence here. Several Army divisions, the HQ of the Air Training Command, Navy flight training bases, and the manufacturer of all F-35s…

re: #21 wheat-dogghazi-mailgate

UpChuck has filed an appeal to the Missouri Supreme Court to have Michael Brown’s juvie records released. I haven’t read the entire petition yet, but the main point seems to be MO law does not say anything about a person retaining those rights of privacy after he’s dead.

[Embedded content]

Many thoughts—first the general:

1. What the fuck does he think he’s going to prove, even if, by some strange chance, he gets to stomp on Michael Brown’s grave and pick his bones some more? What a fucking ghoul he is. Does he somehow think this is going to be his big scoop? That a year after the young man died, the ginger avenger is going to prove that he wasn’t perfect? Wow—color me impressed.

2. Can’t believe these lawyers would still be doing any of this pro bono—if they are, they’re bigger fools than upchuck.

3. I hope they just laugh in his face, as they’ve done before, and just flat out tell him to go to hell (and I hope he has had to spend a lot of his his wife’s or his idiotic donors’ money.

Now to specifics in the filing:

a professional journalist…

Well, right there in the first paragraph is one big ass lie; but I digress.

his stepfather’s long-standing status as a key lieutenant in the Bloods gang organization, or Brown’s history of violence as a juvenile delinquent. The latter two facts have been given to Relators by a series of whistleblowers…

A “series of whistleblowers?” Really? Who were they blowing the whistle on? And how does his mention of anonymous imaginary friends even factor into an actual lawsuit?

Hundreds, if not thousands of businesses closed out of fear…

Say what? When did thousands of businesses close?

Relators have received multiple communications from state and federal confidential law enforcement sources which have emphatically and repeatedly claimed to Relators that Michael Brown had an extensive and serious juvenile record, and that he was implicated and involved in murdering another person.

Again with his imaginary friends. They’ve already told him once (or maybe even twice) that no such records exist.

Relators have invested an enormous amount of time and resources into trying to determine the validity of these claims, and it thus goes without saying that Relators have found the confidential sources to be entirely credible…

That makes no sense. If the sources are entirely credible, why has the idiot invested enormous amounts of time and resources? And, if he’s invested all the time and resources, why does he not have any other validation than the words of his imaginary friends?

Whatever the case, Relators and the public have a right to this information…

NO THEY DON’T you little freak.

Ugh.

I disagree, this isn’t a case of being cited one or two times like John Howard. Breivik was a staunch fanboy of Geller and had no problem citing her numerous times, along with Robert Spencer, Bat Ye’or, Melanie Phillips, Frank Gaffney, Mark Steyn, and Serge Trifkovic guy.

I had averages in the middle 80s and passed the two nursing courses with a combined 1.7 points to spare!!!!! I was so totally worn out but I hung on with all my strength. The week before graduation is a hell of a time to give students the hardest exams ever. This crazy plan just might work.

Old hates go a long way unfortunately. Serb nationalists still remember the battle of Kosovo from 1389. But yeah i don’t get it either. then again I don’t get the point of using religion to divide people when religion should be about finding something that makes you happy but I have been accused of being too idealistic in the past.

I find it pretty pathetic that Armenians and Bosniaks would deny their respective genocides when their oppressors engage in genocide denial of their own. I was reading an article about Balkan Muslims straight-up denying the Armenian Genocide, including those who survived Srebrenica to my shock and horror. I was just upset to see it coming from those who suffered as much as Armenians did in 1915 to deny their suffering. I mean, WHAT THE FUCK?!:

The march was attended by Bosnians, Turks, and Azerbaijanis as well as members of the Mothers of Srebrenica Association and Zepa Mothers.

The President of the Association of Mothers of Srebrenica, Munira Subasic, told The Anadolu Agency that it was embarrassing to talk now about what happened 100 years ago knowing that Turks had also been slaughtered at the time.

She said: “Rather than talk about Armenian allegations, what happened to Muslims in Bosnia and Herzegovina should also be talked about.”

“This was something that was done against Muslims. My husband and son were killed just because they were Muslims.”

I remember hearing that some of the concentration camps that the Utasse had for the Serbs horrified even the SS. The Balkans is truly a tragic region.

Relator
The individual in whose name a legal action is brought by a state; the individual who relates the facts on which an action is based.
The relator is the individual upon whose complaint certain writs are issued. The relator is the party of interest in a proceeding, who is allowed to institute such proceeding in the name of the people, or in the name of the attorney general when such official has the sole right to sue. For example, if A was the relator and B was the defendant, the citation of the case would read, State ex rel. A v. B.

RELATOR. A rehearser or teller; one who, by leave of court, brings an information in the nature of a quo warranto.
2. At common law, strictly speaking, no such person as a relator to an information is known; he being a creature of the statute 9 Anne, c. 20.
3. In this country, even where no statute similar to that of Anne prevails, informations are allowed to be filed by private persons desirous to try their rights, in the name of the attorney general, and these are commonly called relators; though no judgment for costs can be rendered for or against them. 2 Dall. 112; 5 Mass. 231; 15 Serg. & Rawle, 127; 3 Serg. & Rawle, 52; Ang. on Corp. 470.

My grandfather always said the same thing. He felt that Tito held the place together. And you have every right to be disturbed by Ustase supporters. I know as an American, I’m greatly disturbed by people who glorify the CSA here. I am glad that the ethnic hatreds didn’t seem to come into the US though. One of my grandfather’s best friends was a Serbian-American. It just sucks because you see people who apparently learn nothing form history. Since the end of the Cold War, a lot of former Nazi collabarators from that time are being revived as nationalist heroes because their anti-communist beliefs are being pushed ignoring that they helped the Nazis commit genocide in many cases. I’m also of Slovak extraction so maybe you’ve heard of Josef Tiso, the leader of the Slovak Republic puppet state the Nazis established. He too has seen his reputation grow in a way that would have been unthinkable during Communist times. Not that the Communist times were good mind you but it wasn’t as simple as “Red tyranny” and “anti-communist democrats.” The far right in Eastern Europe has grown dramatically in recent years.

I disagree, this isn’t a case of being cited one or two times like John Howard. Breivik was a staunch fanboy of Geller and had no problem citing her numerous times, along with Robert Spencer, Bat Ye’or, Melanie Phillips, Frank Gaffney, Mark Steyn, and Serge Trifkovic guy.

Plus, she expressed no sympathy for the dead, in spite of her BS she spewed on Russell Brand’s show a few years back.

The connection between her and Breivik is far closer than that between Sarah Palin and Jared Laughner, to put it that way.

And I will reiterate that I think Geller is a spirochete with big tits on the Internet, a large colony of E-coli in the alimentary canal of public discourse, and a poor excuse for a human being in general.

But was she as bloody-handed, and responsible as Lady Macbeth, for Breivik’s outrageous actions? No. I wish I could agree with you, but no.

She was just one of dozens of idiots he used to justify his heinous slaughter. His manifesto was just a totally whacked fever dream of hate.

He was going to do what he did even if Geller had never been born. In this specific instance, she had no blood on her hands.

Garland, on the other hand, she has to OWN. That is absolutely her own work. She’s such an insignificant putz.

I think he’s trying to claim he’s a journalist and it’s a “public has a right to know” issue. However, it’s the same bullshit claim he made when they turned him down before. His new argument seems to be that all these horrible things have happened all over the country occurred because Brown was held up as a good guy, and that if he can show Brown wasn’t a good guy, the movement against police brutality is invalid. It’s so ridiculous, I can hardly type it.

There’s one long section where it goes on about how exposing the juvie record can’t harm Brown’s future (i.e. school, employment, etc.) and I say again, Brown was dead when he first filed his suit and they turned him down flat (and I believe said no such records existed—not 100% positive about that part), so I don’t know what’s changed.

Pam honestly inspired me in a way to wrote my term paper I wrote as an undergrad about the pogroms. The language and rhetoric she uses about Muslims is yes so much like was used about the Jews in that part of Russian history. I’m really proud of that work by the way. A lot of people don’t know how much the pogroms influenced the Nazis directly and indirectly. in fact one of the czars former propagandists was in Nazi Germany until the end. I forget his name.

There’s no way to interpret that as anything other than a blatant lie, at the time he wrote this he hadn’t even filed his appeal with the State Supreme Court.

The court will probably not hear the case until after May 18, if they even bother to docket it.

I was wondering about that. I’ve read quite a few legal pleadings in my non-lawyerly life, and this one did not read like something you’d bring to any supreme court. I’d have dispensed with the aggrandizement of the relator and the pointless references to “riots,” etc., in Ferguson, as they have no connection to the legal point being argued.

I kind of doubt any lawyer worth a damn would take on a claim Upchuck has that reads like that one.

That $1K he raised wouldn’t even begin to be a decent retainer for an atty who realized s/he would probably have to wade through an appeals process. It wouldn’t even cover expenses, much less billable time.

And just because the “State of Missouri, ex rel” is shown, usually means that a govt has filed a case for a private individual, not Upchuck and his lawyer friends who cooked this POS up. The State is the entity denying production of Brown’s juvenile records. I can’t imagine they would be a party to this, so it appears Upchuck and his lawyers are simply relying on “information and belief” that there exists such a record since the original request for such doxuments totally failed.

All the documents showing how Upchuck was turned down by authorities is also at the same link. Go to the bottom and click on exhibits.

143 wheat-dogghazi-mailgate  May 9, 2015 4:05:39am

re: #142 Justanotherhuman

The $1K is for his Hillary fishing expedition. His other GoFundMe beg-a-thon for the Michael Brown case netted somewhere around $10K, IIRC. Still, after the appeal got shot down, I can’t imagine he has much more of that dough left.

The ex rel part confused me, because the way the petition reads, it sounds like the state of Missouri is appealing Judge Siwak’s denial, which would make no sense in this case. Are they trying to cover for the fact that Johnson has no standing in this matter?

I missed seeing the exhibits. I’ll go back and check ‘em out.

Exactly. And it appears Nowakowski, who signed some of those pleadings, is actually a lawyer (probably some lowly associate the “cases” was thrown to). And I didn’t read his duties for the judge clearly enough—it was orders he claims he wrote for the judge on the motions of attys, but in those kind of little cases, the judge’s regular court clerk could do it since they’re pretty short and canned and based on the winning side’s pleading. (See page 22 of the linked pleadings.) One sentence.

Also, using a “writ of mandamus” in Upchuck’s particuarly vile, voyeuristic manner is laughable and any judge who is worth a damn will throw it right out of court, as the MO appeals court and the circuit court did, and so will the MO Supreme Court, because it is not in the interest of the public to know.

Remember, “no file found”? Michael Brown obviously had no juvenile record which his parents have stated.

re: #157 Justanotherhuman

I read through the previous petitions and appeals, not carefully yet, but it seems their arguments in the appeal to the supreme court are not substantially different from the ones made to the circuit and appellate courts. Lawhawk can probably provide a more expert opinion, but I would think an appeal to the supreme court would need to argue why the appellate ruling was inappropriate, in addition to the arguments for release of the records.

Meanwhile, the state officials have been reminding Johnson and his lawyers throughout that judicial records do not fall under the state’s Sunshine Laws, which only hold for executive and legislative records and proceedings.

It’s a waste of time and money. I hope those people who donated to his GoFundMe campaign have a big case of buyer’s remorse when this is all over.

Notice that Jonathan Burns notifies Nowakowski on Dec 3, 2014 about this POS case going to the MO SC; get the underling to work on it, do the research and grunt work, the same as the appeals case. No skin off Burns’ back if they’re getting paid. No law firm is going to waste their own time and expense on something like this without being paid, and paid well.

Appeal was dismissed on Dec 18, 2014; it appears that a lot of those “exhibits” attached to the SC petition have absolutely no relation to the case, either, including the NYT article, the DoJ report and the Brown family civil case. What a pile of crap. And since there is no date on the petition, I have no idea when it was filed, since it’s not a filed copy. But no doubt the court will not be pleased with a petition containing an inch of so-called “exhibits” that don’t mean shit relevant to the instant case.

It’s the sign of an attorney who is desperately trying to find an argument. Throw everything at the court and hope for a miracle.

The fact that the appellate division ruled against Johnson on the same day as the state’s reply is pretty telling. It means the court was already disposed to toss the case out, but waited for a formal response from the state attorney general’s office before issuing its ruling. The argument that Johnson has no relevant interest in the matter is what will doom his appeal to the SC.

Yeah, I corrected that above. This thing probably won’t even get past one of the SC judges’ law clerks.

The entire petition reeks of amateurism; Nowakowski should stick to the minor PI cases he’s probably assigned. Even if Burns signed the petition, I doubt he gave it more than a cursory glance, because like I said, no skin off his back if he’s getting paid for all those billable hours and expenses.

Been reading further on the NSA & rule 215. Darn shame they cowed away from the constitutional question, but my favorite parts are these-My bold

“That telephone metadata do not directly reveal the content of telephone calls,” it reads, “does not vitiate the privacy concerns arising out of the government’s bulk collection of such data.”

“The government effectively argues that there is only one enormous ‘anti‐terrorism’ investigation, and that any records that might ever be of use in developing any aspect of that investigation are relevant to the overall counterterrorism effort,” the ruling reads. “The records demanded are not those of suspects under investigation, or of people or businesses that have contact with such subjects, or of people or businesses that have contact with others who are in contact with the subjects - they extend to every record that exists, and indeed to records that do not yet exist, as they impose a continuing obligation on the recipient of the subpoena to provide such records on an ongoing basis as they are created.”

Way past time to end the 215 program outright, return to the principle of probable cause, and finally much belatedly sunset the Patriot act forever. I always felt this was a completely unnecessary power grab, and rulings in support of the program are no less in error than the Japanese detention rulings. Just look at who supports the programs now, the likes of John MCCain and the GOP. Well well.

re: #191 Great White Snark

So bring a toothbrush and sleeping bag with you to the intersection in case the sensors don’t work? Get off the bike and push the walk button?

OK, I guess I can see the point of the sensors, but I don’t see how allowing them to run through the light will help. Wouldn’t it be better to propose adjusting the sensor load? Or adopt camera sensors like we have here in Texas? I see a lot more accidents because motorcycles taking off when they should have waited, and a lot of cyclists going “but my cycle was too light.”

re: #198 Belafon

I would say the simple solution is just run a timer. Here in California in the event of a power outage that blacks out the signal lights, the law says treat the intersection as a four way stop. Tie goes to the vehicle on the right. Treating a bad sensor like that makes perfect sense to me. Stopping and then proceeding is not the same as running the light as in just blow through.

I used to work swing and would do a lot of my shopping late at night. There was this one intersection I went through a couple of times until I learned better where they had it set never to turn green after…midnight, maybe? I’d look around as carefully as I could to make sure it wasn’t a trap with cops lurking around, but I would eventually get out of the car and push the walk button. First time the green light came and went so quick I had to do it again. Huge pain in the ass. I think there really should be a time limit on red lights—if they don’t turn green in five minutes, you can treat them as a stop sign—motorcycle or no.

206 stpaulbear  May 9, 2015 8:36:52am

re: #188 Belafon

Just read through the article. His newest bill idea sounds awesome: “WRDW reports that Brush was on his way to see Governor Nathan Deal regarding another motorcycle bill to allow bikers to treat red lights as a stop sign if the bike wasn’t big enough to trigger sensors embedded in pavement.” Because nothing says safety like allowing people to drive through red lights.

That law exists in MN and other states.

I wanted to use that law last night, but there was too much cross traffic so I made a right turn on red instead. I sat through three cycles of a traffic light, and the car behind me wouldn’t pull up far enough to trip the detectors. I feel uncomfortable running the red (there’s usually someone who can see you), but it beats waiting for 20 minutes for a car to pull up behind you.

My Chinese friends who have lived in America are amazed that Americans will wait patiently for a red light to turn green, even when there are no other cars around. In some parts of the China, red lights are considered advisory only.

So, aside from the fact he is generally a sad excuse for a man, my “sad” was his apparent sorry relationship with his own mother and the fact he can’t unconditionally love is mother-in-law. He has to point out that she isn’t like him, but he loves her anyhow so…mumble, mumble, mumble.

Funny. All the versions of the NT I have read mentioned nothing about “brutal savages”.

Not that the NT is accurate - it’s anything but good history as we understand historiography today.

The Roman elite were the high society of the day.
Roman officers were educated.
Sanhedrin were the upper crust of local society.
The Pharisees were the educated elite of local society.

The only “savages” were the rebels… er… those who became the “Christians” of the first century.

What we have there is someone willfully misreading the historical facts in order to reach a predetermined conclusion.

re: #63 electrotek

I find it pretty pathetic that Armenians and Bosniaks would deny their respective genocides when their oppressors engage in genocide denial of their own. I was reading an article about Balkan Muslims straight-up denying the Armenian Genocide, including those who survived Srebrenica to my shock and horror. I was just upset to see it coming from those who suffered as much as Armenians did in 1915 to deny their suffering. I mean, WHAT THE FUCK?!:

Actually, I can give some insight on that one:

1. Many Balkan Muslims are at least somewhat pro-Turkey and don’t want to admit the nation that brought Islam to the Balkans carried out a genocide. Linked to this is that, just as some Christians sometimes engage in denial regarding murderous episodes in the history of their own faith, their own faith, many Muslims don’t want to ascribe major evil events to nations seen as Islamic.

2. Like the Serbs, Armenians were and mostly still are Orthodox Christians. And then as now, both of those nationalities have a large number of people who see Russia as the protector of their faith, a role promoted by the czars that Vladimir Putin has brought back in Recent years. This is very frightening to Balkan Muslim’s who fear Russia’s size and power. They fear that to concede the Armenian Genocide would be to help make the case for Russia as the ‘protector of Orthodox Christianity’.

All too true in my experience with Turkish Muslims - they sing the praises of the Ottoman Empire, but gloss over the genuinely shitty things they did from time to time.

This is much to be said for Sultans such as Suleiman the Magnificent. But we can’t overlook such Sultans as Selim the Grim……or for that matter, the monstrous actions of the Three Pashas.

Jade Helm 15 recently triggered something only slightly less remarkable than it appears: Rick Perry acting like the adult in the room.

Perry to Texas: Stop Being Insane

ormer Texas governor Rick Perry drew the sharpest contrast with Abbott’s Infowars pandering.

“It’s OK to question your government. I do it on a regular basis,” he said on May 5, per the Dallas Morning News. “But the military is something else. Our military is quite trustworthy. The civilian leadership, you can always question that, but not the men and women in uniform.”

Questioning men and women in uniform is exactly what Abbott did, and exactly what Cruz and Paul endorsed. Now, thanks to Infowars and unfounded anxieties, we have an early way of differentiating between some of the most conservative—and, in Perry’s case, potential—presidential candidates. Buckle up, guys. 2016 is going to be nuts.

I guess instead of KKK sheets, they attach flea collars around their necks and go in wearing full hazard suits to keep down the diseases.

I look at them as animal handlers at the zoo who feed the monkeys and then get to clean up all the flung dung later so when the new visitors show up the next day it doesn’t smell too bad.

re: #294 Eclectic Cyborg

Picture of CCJ standing in front of what he thinks was Davis’ house coming in 3..2..1..

From some quick research. Davis died in 1987. The Honolulu house that they say he lived in is owned by a guy who is a set designer who has worked on projects in Hawaii since the early 90s. (Not sure how long he’s owned the house, but probably a good while.)

Sooooo—why would any of Davis’s stuff still be in the house by the time upchuck presumably went there? Why would the current owner have even let the little twit near his house?

I’m guessing upchuck’s claim to fame about the house was a drive by (if, in fact, he even drove by the correct house) to confirm the conspiracy loons’ contention that the placement of the windows in the living room proves something or other. So, in other words, CONFIRMED FACT, LIBTARDS.

Maybe whoever defaced that memorial should have to go back in time and see what it was like to have your country bombed day after day by the Nazis. They would probably be cowering in blackout shelters and peeing themselves silly.

Many of those women held down the home front in Britain and were enlisted in the cause of protecting the country, in working desk jobs, factory jobs in the war effort (those things don’t make themselves) and in other areas, not to mention what part they played in the actual battles. The entire country was engaged in protecting itself, except for maybe a handful of idiots like whoever did that. I may not like war, but when you’re attacked, you have to defend yourself, and these women came through with whatever they could contribute.

These people have no idea because they’re just haters with nothing else to do but try to destroy by anarchistic vandalism.

The 2016 GOP clown car will make the GOP circus of 2012 look relatively sensible and sane.

In due course, the 2020 GOP derpularity will make the 2016 GOP clown car look sane.

There is no apparent way the GOP can even stop its ongoing degeneration into a party of fascist nitwits, much less reverse it.

You know, they would have had it made in the shade. There’s this large contingent of Idiots Low-Information Voters™ who think the White House should alternate between the parties because Magic Balance Fairy or something—We’ve had one 8-year Democratic administration, followed by an 8-year Republican administration, followed by an 8-year Democratic administration…if the GOPers could just have kept it in their pants, they’d have a very good chance of getting the cycle vote and winning. But they just can’t seem to keep it in their pants….

re: #349 WhatEVs

Not as long as the R next to their name rules the tiniest modicum of common sense. The R is all that matters. And I’m not even talking about the sociopaths that want poor folks to starve, get sick and die. Those people are lost at heart. I’m talking about average people who have been brainwashed to believe Cons are fiscally responsible or security able, neither of which passes the smell test.

Limbaugh, Ailes, et al, have done their jobs well.

Fascist leaders always promise every type of person, from ordinary worker to business leader an improvement in times of economic stress and they must find the perfect “whipping boys” to demonize. In the US, there are enough of those in various different groups to do so and Muslims, immigrant Latinos, and Blacks are at the top of the list. This is pretty obvious as the right wing becomes even more racist, nationalistic and militaristic.

Completely domesticating women’s role is also a feature, along with a solid commitment to christianity, although a bit more difficult to realize in the 21st century, but they’re doing their damndest trying to change that, also. And they’re searching for just the right person in the party to fulfill all their dreams, a charismatic person who can exploit those fears fully and articulate the wish list of those who think that way, someone they can embrace fully.

It ain’t gonna happen. They’ll simply wind up being a mosquito on the back of democracy. But it will be a constant battle for those who wouldn’t wish them on anyone.

“religious liberty created the United States”

“…Paternalism in government was the rule in the other colonies and in Europe, but nowhere was it carried to such an extreme as in New England.

Here the civil law laid its hand upon the citizen in his business and social relations; it regulated his religious affairs, it dictated his dress, and even invaded the home circle and directed his family relations. One law forbade the wearing of lace, another of “slashed cloaths other than one slash in each sleeve and another in the back.” The length and width of a lady’s sleeve was solemnly decided by law. It was a penal offense for a man to wear long hair, or to smoke in the street, or for a youth to court a maid without the consent of her parents. A man was not permitted to kiss his wife in public. Captain Kimble, returning from a three-years’ ocean voyage, kissed his wife on his own doorstep and spent two hours in the stocks for his “lewed and unseemly behavior.”

Not just look up to, Chuck actively partnered with Gilbert in the formation of Got News LLC. He told this to Orly Taitz early last year.

The reason Johnson is not talking now, is because he is writing a book and he stated at the same meeting at the Riviera Country Club that this book will destroy Obama’s legacy and what we know about Obama. He also stated that he is also preparing to launch a web site together with the filmmaker Joel Gilbert. Gilbert is the producer and director of the movie “Dreams from my REAL Father”, where he claims that devout communist and writer of some perverted sexual memoirs, Frank Marshall Davis, is Obama’s biological father.

The Blaze confirmed this when the Stevie Fielder story broke.

It’s worth noting that the folks behind GotNews [dot] com, independent journalist Charles C. Johnson and documentary filmmaker Joel Gilbert, paid Fielder for his story, something Fielder made sure to confirm during the interview.

Joel Gilbert was also the listed last year as the registered corporate agent for Got News LLC on the California Secretary of State database, but Chuck has since changed that. Gilbert’s name is still there on the Corporation Wiki listing.

Jade Helm 15 recently triggered something only slightly less remarkable than it appears: Rick Perry acting like the adult in the room.

Perry to Texas: Stop Being Insane

Perry reminds of Jindal in this instance. A while back Jindal said the gop needed to stop being the “stupid party”, sounding like the sober adult in the room. Of course Jindal then proceeded to say all kinds of stupid far right shit about religion, climate change, evolution, secularism, and anything else left of Teabagistan.

Here Perry momentarily seems like the lone rational Republican, as he dismisses concerns over Jade Helm 15. But when you read his actual quote you realize how full of shit he is too

“But the military is something else. Our military is quite trustworthy. The civilian leadership, you can always question that, but not the men and women in uniform.”

A society that can’t even “question the men and women in uniform” has essentially blinded itself and abdicated responsibility in the name of misguided patriotic deference. Perry is just another mindless tool. Like so many other neo-conservatives, he never really met a war he didn’t like.

Of course Jindal then proceeded to say all kinds of stupid far right shit about religion, climate change, evolution, secularism, and anything else left of Teabagistan.

Here Perry momentarily seems like the lone rational Republican, as he dismisses concerns over Jade Helm 15. But when you read his actual quote you realize how full of shit he is too

A society that can’t even “question the men and women in uniform” has essentially blinded itself and abdicated responsibility in the name of misguided patriotic deference. Perry is just another mindless tool. Like so many other neo-conservatives, he never really met a war he didn’t like.

Agreed.

I don’t know. He has a beard. That beard looks Muslim. //

Point out Oom Paul had a beard and maybe they’ll get rid of their Krugerrands.

My favorite is still the NRO’s resident bigot Englishman, John Derbyshire is both an immigrant himself and a former illegal immigrant by his own admission. All due respect to the British who I usually quite like, you guys should have kept Derbyshire away from us.

Same for Stuart Varney.

re: #388 HappyWarrior

Marco really is a shitty leader. He offers nothing about how he would be more effective against terrorism. Just likes to act tough since the GOP base eats that shit for breakfast.

Definitely. The gop has become so tribal they can’t even celebrate the US military killing jihadists because some of the credit attaches to Dems and Obama. The only good killing of a jihadist occurs under a gop administration.

I’ll never forget how little enthusiasm there was on the right when we finally got bin Laden. Republicans just could not bring themselves to congratulate the Prez or feel any joy because it wasn’t THEIR party’s victory. Any happiness they had over bin Laden’s death had to be subordinated for the most childish of partisan reasons. Republicans are super patriotic…when they can take the credit. Otherwise they’re just engaged in a con job.

I think it really pisses them off that Obama’s proved their lies for years that Dems are weak on defense and terrorism. OBL was the world’s most wanted man for practically Bush’s entire presidency and he was a FBI’s most wanted for the entire due to the embassy bombing in the Clinton years. They just can’t bring themselves to admit that not only has Obama done a great job combating terrorism but some of them can’t even admit that Obama wants to stop the terrorists so they resort to pathetic crap like claiming he sympathizes with ISIS which is so laughable but then you see how many people in the GOP base actually believe that.

re: #413 Justanotherhuman

I wonder how much govt money old Ben has garnered over his lifetime?

His own family was on Medicaid when he was a child, but he would deny that to others. And how much has Medicaid and/or Medicare paid him over the years he practiced surgery? Who paid for his medical education? No doubt Ben Carson has received quite a bit from govt coffers over his lifetime, but he doesn’t want to give back, unless it has his name on it.

He’s someone they would be calling a moocher but because he espouses their bs rhetoric they love him. Not that the other candidates with humble backgrounds are much different though.

The more the GOP degenerates into a horrible mess, the crazier their spokespeople become, the harder it is to tell the radical right from the old Stalinists.
