LA Times Shills for Terror Supporters (Again)

Katharine Viner, features editor at Britain’s far-left Guardian newspaper, complains in the Los Angeles Times about the horrible American suppressive climate that has shut down her play glorifying Rachel Corrie: A message crushed again.

Oddly, the play produced by Rickman and Viner does not include Rachel Corrie in her most (in)famous scene, burning a badly simulated American flag for a room full of Palestinian children:

Oh, dear. More ROP news from the Dutch. Dutch Muslim women enrages Islamists

Bill's guest stated specifically that Bubba was getting a commission (40% of profits) from a consulting company set up by the emerate. In other words, BC is a PAID agent of a foriegn power.It is true. It has been in the news since Thursday, and even the MSM seems disgusted. The Clintons of Dubai is not MSM, and it is by the odious Robert Novak, but the information seems to be verified on every place it has been mentioned. This is from Newsday, which is as L3 as it can be, and they also are less than polite.

AP Plays Emily Litella

The AP started a firestorm with its report that transcripts from emergency meetings somehow proved George Bush lied when he said that no one imagined the levees around Lake Pontchartrain would be breached in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. This vaunted system of editors and fact-checking at Exempt Media outlets failed yet again, and yet again the hack job that emerged was intended to damage George Bush.

UPDATE: I got this from a media source who noted it hadn't been released through AP's web service as yet. Keemo points us to Drudge, who also posted it.

UPDATE II: CQ reader and frequent source River Rat notes that the AP still engages in some dishonest vocabulary in its clarification: "They are replacing the verb "breach" with the verb "overrun" ..."   Comments (24)

Should We Impeach the Associated Press Now?

Since the Associated Press has had six months to get the story straight and still failed, and the whole point of its latest story was that President Bush failed by not delivering massive amounts of relief to New Orleans within a few hours rather than a few days -- it seems to me that the only serious failure we have documented is by the Associated Press.

"Of the poll of 1,273 adults, 35 percent were Democrats, 26 percent independents and 25 percent Republicans. It has a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points. "

On Election Day in 2004, the voter breakdown was:

37 percent GOP, 37 percent Democrat, 26 percent independent

And note that 88% of the Dems disapprove, so you can see how oversampling them can skew the poll tremendously.

The MSM found a new way to bring down Bush's ratings, if they still couldn't do it by bashing him 24/7, then they do it by oversampling Dems and NOT adjusting for it in their poll. The adjusted for sex, race, etc, but not for voter registration demographics.

Detailed poll results (in pdf)

I think we need to keep pointing out the bias, because the MSM has the headline of "Bush approval slipping", etc. and the barely mention it in the article of not mentioning at all, how they got the approval rating. We need to educate people about this.

Publish or Perish

Robert Tracinski makes an essential argument about the violent Islamist intimidation that poses an unprecedented threat to free speech: Publish or Perish: The Lessons of the Cartoon Jihad.

The central issue of the “cartoon jihad”—the Muslim riots and death threats against a Danish newspaper that printed 12 cartoons depicting Mohammed—is obvious. The issue is freedom of speech: whether our freedom to think, write, and draw is to be subjugated to the “religious sensitivities” of anyone who threatens us with force.

That is why it is necessary for every newspaper and magazine to re-publish those cartoons, as I will do in the next print issue of The Intellectual Activist. Click here.

This is not merely a symbolic expression of support; it is a practical countermeasure against censorship. link: 25 comments

...if you want to kill anyone who publishes those cartoons, or anyone who makes cartoons of Mohammed, then you’re going to have to kill us all.


Hmm, seems to be their plan anyway. But I agree that exposing the raging and seething at every opportunity will continue to open eyes in the West, perhaps before it's too late.

Toronto Supports Denmark

As Torontonians we are citizens of our nation’s largest and most multiethnic city. That people of so varied cultures can coexist not merely in tolerance, but in a spirit of mutual respect where all are free to practice their customs without imposition on others, is a testament to the strengths of free expression and secularism.

We cannot expect Canadian soldiers to risk their lives securing secularism and liberty abroad if we are unwilling to make a modest effort at home. We support Denmark in an attempt to honour these values.


A rally is planned for noon to 1:30pm, March 11, at the Danish Consulate, 151 Bloor St. Help spread the word.

Bush, and the bushmen--"They were a motley crew. A melange of Marxists, Islamists and well-meaning loonies of activist genre and if they should ever be in a position to create the world of their dreams it would be a totalitarian, Marxist, Islamist theocracy. How scary is that?"
A snapshot of middle class India--Folks - the Bush visit to India really brought out the difference between hindus and muslims. While hindus warmly applauded Bush , and see him as their best friend for the way he has taken on Islamic terrorists , muslims hate him for the same reason. Hindus love Bush because we think Bush is a friend of India. Muslims have extra-territorial loyalties , and so they hate Bush because he destroyed the Taliban , Saddam and Al Qaeda.

Report Faults (INDIANA) Governor For Lack Of Pre-Kindergarten--I've been fighting this for over 10 years. They are hoping for an '08 win for Dems, so watch carefully because they are preparing to try to blindside us. They hoodwinked Floridians into mandatory preK for all kids in the system using the murder of a 4 yr. old to convince the voters that she wouldn't have been killed if she'd been in preschool. That was a couple of years ago, I think. But they are sneaky and will use any underhanded means they can to put universal preK in place state-by-state.
 

Brady Gun Control Campaign All Wet, Say Nation's Top Cops--The very foundations of the gun control movement were rocked today by the results of a survey taken by the National Association of Chiefs of Police (NACOP). In a nutshell, the survey shows that the nation's top law enforcement officers believe that average citizens can be trusted to responsibly own firearms; that criminals ignore gun control laws; and that concealed carry laws reduce crime.

Glass Houses Who Need Stones Are The Luckiest Glass Houses

When one uses a blog to scold people for a lack of education, it's best to ensure that the post has been thoroughly checked for spelling and grammar. This lesson apparently escaped Barbra Streisand, along with most of the English classes she attended, according to Beautiful Atrocities:

Streisand should either avoid criticizing anyone on the basis of their education, or she should hire an editor with a passing familiarity with the English language.

There's a new project called ReadTheBill.org. The object of it is to get Congress to agree to post the final text of bills online 72 hours before the vote, so that we, the people, can read it. The theory is that we the people will force them to be more aware of what they are voting on. There's a petition and other information over at the website; the idea is for us to contact our representatives and get them to pledge their support. I think it's a good, exceedingly timely initiative and that people should pressure their legislators. Something's got to be done.

Minh-Duc at State Of Flux has been blogging about fascinating stuff lately. He urged supporting Denmark during the cartoon wars. He notes this week that as a Buddhist, not even dhimmitude is an option for him, and called Buddhists or Hindus who believe they can sit this one out "useful idiots". He also followed that up with this post about moderate Muslims, writing:

The murder of Matthew Shepherd looms very very large in the American gay psyche. (He was the gay guy killed by gay-bashers in Wyoming in the '90s). The play "The Laramie Project" was about the case, and was a huge hit. I've seen it referred to constantly.

So the cultural elite thought to themselves:

How can we get revenge for Matthew Shepherd? Not just on the perpetrators, but on the entire class of people who resemble the perpetrators?

Ah ha!

Liveblogging the Oscars

The first time I liveblogged the Oscars (in 2004), it was one of my better early posts. Last year, I was considering chewing off my paw before the night was over, so this time, I'm skipping the program and working on artwork. with the Red Hot Chili Peppers turned to a decibel level that's generating dirty looks from the dogs.

But Jim Treacher is on the case;

One of my favorite fun facts about Clooney is that he didn't shave his head for that movie because he was scared it wouldn't grow back. Unfortunately, there's no category for Best Guy Who Doesn't Understand Biology, so they had to give him Best Supporting Actor.

CBS's Stem Cell Shenanigans--A year ago I wrote an article titled: “Why the Media Miss the Stem Cell Story.” It discussed the almost total disregard of adult stem cells (ASCs) and the glorification of “miraculous” human embryonic stem cells (ESCs) -- notwithstanding that the adult ones treat over 80 human diseases while embryonics haven’t even made it to human testing. It is important to remember always that the mission of the dying, dinosaur "mainstream" liberal newsrooms (CBS, New York Times, etc.) is to promote the Democrat Party. Since the Democrat Party has hung its hat on abortion, the "mainstream" liberal newsrooms have coolly decided to carefully meld "abortion" with "stem cell miracle cures" in the public's mind.

In case anyone still has any illusions about the intent of radical Islamists, Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made it clear when meeting with government officials on his state visit to Malaysia.

Aviation Weekly reports that the US has mothballed an aircraft capable of space flight that has operated secretly for over a decade but now finds itself the victim of shrinking budgets. U.S. intelligence agencies may have quietly mothballed a highly classified two-stage-to-orbit spaceplane system designed in the 1980s for reconnaissance, satellite-insertion and, possibly, weapons delivery.

UNC Attacker Will Use Trial to Proselytize

The Muslim psychology graduate who allegedly drove an SUV into a crowd of students at UNC-Chapel Hill appeared in court today and said he intends to use his trial to tell people about Allah: UNC attacker appears in court. Mohammad said he tried to rent the largest SUV he could, in order to kill as many people as possible. It’s a good thing Hertz doesn’t rent 747s.

Czech TV Documentary Enrages Muslims  ( seethe-o-meter alert! )

A television documentary has enraged Muslims in the Czech Republic by taking a hidden camera into a mosque and filming the real opinions of the local Muslim community: “I have to say with 100 percent certainty that by using hidden camera I have learned things that I would never have learned otherwise,” he says. “The result was alarming, and if not for the hidden camera, I would have never had any of this footage.”

 CTV documentary angers Muslims. (Hat tip: LGF readers.)  link: 121 comments

They should be outraged at what is being said in the mosques, not at the fact that it was exposed.

Re: Steve Emerson's video? ( 1994 Frontline  )

link to video

Snippet of synopsis:

Hidden cameras inside *American* mosques reveal Islamic militants raising funds for Hamas, baying for the blood of Jews. Even something so innocent as a summer camp for boys is turned into terror training by these apostles of jihad. (Catch the little arab boy hissing "Butcher the Jews!" during that segment.)

This is a propaganda war in which fascist Islam is proclaiming that whatever they don't like, or find offensive, is punishable by death. We are currently at war with two particularly virulent forms of Islam that believe in total world domination through murder and violence. We are at war with fascist Islam. And every time we allow ourselves to be censored or to change what is ordinary and mundane out of fear of offending Muslims, we are surrendering to their way of life -- which is a way of life that is barbaric, hateful, and violent. "

The Satanic Precedents

Agora has translated an interesting piece by Danish writer Helle Merete Brix, looking back at the Muslim world’s rage over Salman Rushdie’s novel The Satanic Verses: The Satanic Precedent of the Muhammed Cartoons.

How is it that 12 cartoons depicting the prophet Muhammed published in a Danish newspaper can lead to a fatwa, threats from Al-Qaeda, diplomatic crisis, massive boycott of Danish goods and flag burnings in the West Bank? How can 12 cartoons get the Moslem World to jump on Jyllands-Posten and the Danish Prime Minister? To understand the dramatic developments of the Muhammed cartoons issue, it may be enlightening to recollect the case of Salman Rushdie’s The Satanic Verses.

Symposium: To Rape an Unveiled Woman--

A Muslim rape epidemic in sweeping over Europe -- and over many other nations host to immigrants from the Islamic world. The direct connection between the rapes and Islam is irrefutable, as Muslims are significantly overrepresented among convicted rapists and rape suspects. The Muslim perpetrators themselves boast that there crime is justified since their victims were, among other things, not properly veiled.--That symposium is actually worth a thread. One of the things the MSM refuses to print is that many of these women are tortured and sexually humiliated prior to and during the rapes that often last for hours. The police often refuse to investigate because in Australia for instance, the police themselves are threatened with the rape of females in their own family. Because no will round up the suspects, they are further emboldened. Send this article to a prosecutor in Detroit or New Jersey and they will arrest you for dissemination of hate literature.

I also think it's worth noting that those who claim that the Islamists hate us because of our policy toward Israel, etc., never seem to mention that they also hate the Hindus. What, exactly, did they do?

The Shahab-6 is expected to have a range of 5,470-5,500 and 5,632-6,200 kilometers with a 1,000-750-500 kilogram warhead. This range capability will depend on the number of stages used in the launch vehicle and their performance.

BLANCO BROADCASTING ILLEGAL AD!
 
I pronounce you man and wife, wife, wife --Of course this is fallout from the homosexual agenda. Worse and not so humorous scenarios include: An elderly man "marrying" his sister or cousin to receive her SS; Two young heterosexual man/woman "marrying" to receive corporate benefits, soon "divorcing" after the unemployed one gets a job; Marrying arbitrarily after a spouse dies to avoid estate issues, etc.
 
Pro-Abort Burleigh Blows Off S. Dakota: "Dirt Vista of the Frozen American Steppe"--Nina Burleigh burst on the national scene in 1998 when, as reported by MRC here, the former Time reporter famously said of Bill Clinton: "I'd be happy to give him [oral sex] just to thank him for keeping abortion legal."

The teachers unions are mad at me--Unions say, "education of the children is too important to be left to the vagaries of the market." The opposite is true. Education is too important to be left to the calcified union/government monopoly.

It's been around since October 2002.

Daniel Pipes and Sharon Chadha have a new expose of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) on the Middle East Forum site today, titled "CAIR: Islamists Fooling the Establishment."
