Tucked away in President Obama's historic speech in Cairo Thursday was a promise to American Muslims to ease the impact of post-9/11 scrutiny of their charities.
"Rules on charitable giving have made it harder for Muslims to fulfill their religious obligation. That's why I'm committed to working with American Muslims to ensure that they can fulfill zakat," said Obama, referring to the Muslim obligation to be charitable

Thank you for going right to the source, instead of posting WND as a secondary source. Frankly, WND has gotten extremely lazy. A lot of their stories are coming from Breitbart.com, which is already a secondary news source, making WND tertiary in its “breakinf news” stories.
I think that WND uses a news aggregator to gather these stories for them, rather than having real people find them,, and they do not bother to check from where they are coming. The NY Post is a good example: it is about as leftist as is the NY Times.
Thanks for the ping!

Now on the Bragelina front, if Brad and Angelina goes their separate ways, I hope he goes back to Jen. That will leave Angelina with a huge mess and payback for causing Brad and Jen's break up.
Of course that means Jen and I will have to go our separate ways. Major bummer...............
Muslin murdering thugs, gutter religion of Islam gets breaks while Christians are damned by the US government as terrorists. Obama and his thugs are the terrorists. Threats to the very existence of this nation. Thanks to those 60 plus million who voted for this ass hole. YOU assisted in the destruction of this country.
Bears repeating.

Lead has more important applications than in hats. Gold is good, it's a better shield and is much more easily made into hats than either lead or tin. (Actually aluminum is better than either of those as well, but not as good a gold.)
Ike couldn't "Fix it", Johnson couldn't "Fix It", Nixon couldn't fix it, James Earl Carter messed it up more that it had been, Reagan couldn't "Fix It", Bush I couldn't "Fix It", The Bent One couldn't "Fix It", Bush II made a good start, but he couldn't "Fix It" either. It's the height of arrogance for The One, The Messiah, to believe he can "Fix It". It's broken more Presidents than any other single issue.
But some left our country in a better possition for the effort. BHO is on track to a larger, much larger, disaster than even James Earl Carter.
Actually it's supposedly the number of Muslim countries. Only 3 of which have representative governments. Turkey, Iraq, and Afghanistan (and it arguable in the last case). Of those, only Turkey managed to get their pretty much on its own. Although they had to lose WW-I and virtually of their (Ottoman) empire for it to happen.
I am of the firm conviction before it is all said and done President pantywaist will have directly or indirectly gotten more Americans killed than since ‘nam
Well according to more than a few of their religious leaders it is their religious duties to kill as many of us as they can. I think the number is up to 4 million of us now.
Obama wouldn’t want to stand in the way of that religious dictate would he?
I’ve known about Ibrahim for over a decade and his statements about America becoming part of the Islamic Caliphate, with Sha’ria law replacing the Constitution.
I’d write to editorial editors about him, about CAIR and their connection to the Muslim Brotherhood, about James Zogby’s pro-Hamas “charity,” about the Holy Land Foundation, and so on.
And their response? **crickets**
Well, they are going to have to, this time. Let me tell you how I’m going to make it happen, because I’ve done it before.
I’ve been successful in getting fellow Jews to read Robert Spencer’s, The Unpolitically Correct Guide to Islam and the Crusades,” and it has opened their eyes to the worldwide jihad being waged against everyone else, but with particular attention towards the genocide of Jews.
They’ve unlearned all of the rubbish they were told about the Christian Crusaders being the bad guys and Mohammedeans being the innocent ones. I told them after the war with Hezbollah that they were going to witness the exact, same thing with Hamas: firing rockets in Israel, using children as human shields, and when they are on the verge of defeat, to pull off a phony “massacre” of children like at Qana or in Jenin.
I said, “Just you watch. They’ll locate their mortars or rockets close to a school, in the hopes that they are targeted by Israelis.
Never mind that firing rockets or mortars deliberately at civilians is a war crime.
Never mind that firing them from a school courtyard is also a war crime.
If the school suffers damage as a result, they’ll say it was a deliberate attack by Israelis
If the school does not suffer damages, then they will blow it up anyway and blame it on the Israelis, and the anti-Israel world will believe them.
Not only believe them, but the US and the World will go apoplectic, demanding an immediate ceasefire and withraw; frpm HGaza, which the Israeli PM, Elmer Fudd Olmert, will honor because he, nor his dovish dolts, don’t have the balls to destroy their enemy once and for all — which they needed to do with Hezbollah.
Look what happened with the ceasefire with Hezbollah: it was a freakin’ joke. The Lebanese army was supposed to disarm them. LOL! Hezbollah kept their weapons and got lots of new ones, compliments of the UN. They stayed in control by assassinated Lebanese officials and other intimidations, and continued to rearm themselves with the money meant to “rebuild” Lebanon.
I said, “Just you watch.” The ceasefire will go into effect. Hamas will resupply and rearm their terrorists, using a billion dollars in aid meant for Gaza to “rebuild, donated by the brain-dead anti-Jewish/Anti Israel/Radical-Islamic-loving liberals in the US and Europe, who refuse to see history repeating itself, ad infinitum.
Then the rocket attacks will continue.
It all played out exactly as I said, and most of them got the message and voted Republican for the first time in their lives.
But, back to the 2008 campaign.
Jewish voters had no love for Bush, and they were convinced that McCain was a Bush clone, so they voted for either Hillary or Obama over McCain.
Given the piss-poor campaign that McCain ran, and the fact that he added a very conservative Christian to the ticket, American Jews were not given a viable alternative.
Rather than pointing out to Jews how Obama was going to sell out Israel, over and over again, McCain refused to go there. McCain wanted to run a “respectable campaign.”
Apparently not, according to a writer for the HuggingtonPost, who called McCain’s run, “the dirtiest, sleaziest campaign in American history.”
Everyone NPOW says, after the fact, that they should have seen it coming.
Hindsight is always 20/20.
FROM WHERE WERE THEY SUPPOSED TO GET THIS INFO?
American Jews get their news from the MSM and PBS: not exactly “fair and balanced.”
WND became so full of gung-ho, fundamentalist Christian articles over the past two years that a Jew wouldn’t be caught dead reading it — even if just for their articles supporting Israel and condemning radical Islam.
Meanwhile, virutally every TV, print, and radio media outlet launched into a blitkreig of smears about Hillary, Bush, McCain, Sarah Palin and daughter, Bristol, while simultaneously refusing to run with any of the stories about Obama, Wright, Farrakan, Khalidi, Ayers, etc..
Obama became untouchable, and every negative revelation was quickly buried, and buried deep.
Sure, it would have been nice to have them all be Freepers. But, when they get online, they go into FaceBook and MySpace, not the blogsphere.
Anyway, my plan is to get them to understand how radical Islam has beocme the Fifth Column here in the US; how they are using a “divide and conquer” approach with America; how they become a part of the fabric of society, pimping Islam as the “religion of peace,” getting positions in our government and military.
If they can get theat, then they can start to connect the dots between American Islamics and Obama’s Administration.
That’s the plan, hopefully.
GW kept us safe cause the muzzies knew he would just as soon take them out as chat with them. Not so with zero.
Ease the rules ? Like on the Holy Land Foundation in Texas whose ringleaders just got 60yrs or so for funneling $$ to Hamas ?
It’s like UhBamUh is begging for us to get hit again!!!!!!
And with his other hand he is destroying the American way of life here at home.
