Ms. Huma Abedin, Deputy Chief of Staff, Department of State

I thought she was Hillary's valet and dresser? When did she get the title Deputy Chief of Staff? And what happened to her hubby, he of the public tantrums?

Sultan Baraq Hussein Obama has thrown the full weight of his sultanate behind the Victory for Islam mosque.

OK but if that is so WHY was it held ???

When did it start...

and did George Bush 43 continue it...

Little or not this much fanfare was evident in the past...

It appears that Barry has either put a new spin on the event, or given it more prominance

or put it out there as the most important celebration the White House has all year...

These thugs have taken control of our nation. We’ve got to take it back soon or we’ll be toast.

And we need to PURGE every single one of them from positions of influence. No mercy. We need Republicans who have the backbone to do it -- top to bottom.

I agree with you - no mercy! But I'm afraid that we might not be able to count on Republicans (with a big "R") to do it. I think that party has been corrupted by our enemy.

I think it's going to be up to us ordinary citizens to do it. We're going to have to be courageous to do what we have to do.

The President Stands with Sharia

At Andrew Breitbart’s Big Peace site, Frank Gaffney explains.

All of it is worth reading, but I was struck by Frank’s description of three people among the invited company in which President Obama chose to make his announcement in support the Ground Zero mosque:

Ingrid Mattson, the head of a Muslim Brotherhood satellite organization, the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), that was identified by the Justice Department as an unindicted coconspirator in a terrorism financing case (and was proved, in fact, to have sent money to Hamas);

Salam al-Marayati, a self-described supporter of Hezbollah (and one Steve Emerson aptly describes as an anti-anti-terrorist); and

Dalia Mogahed, an apologist for sharia’s subjugation of women who has embraced ISNA, CAIR and other Islamist groups in her role as an Obama appointee to the President’s Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships.

The president has long been governing against the will of the American people. It’s good to see, concretely, whose will his governance favors. Given the choice between the 9/11 Families for a Safe & Strong America and ISNA, Obama chooses ISNA.

Unfortuanately the last American generation who were anything lioke those of the American revolution period are mstly long gone...

The WWII people would have stood up and fought for our country...

Even many of the Vietnam Era Americans...

But fat and slackness has bred a line of young people who are warriors only in their heads and their Nintendos

and reality is their science fiction...

Plus all the outsiders who have no connection or loyalty to our country...

Indeed, we're in a dire situation.

At some point, this country is going to have to have a national conversation/debate about what consititutes a “religion.” Reno and gang certainly had NO PROBLEM turning Waco into a war zone, did they? I’ll NEVER forget those images. Just SAYING something is a “religion” does not make it so. Example: One can proclaim that polygamy is a tenet of his religion, but he will run smack up against laws that will conflict with it. What if a “religion” required parents to sacrifice all their female babies on a funeral pyre? Hopefully, we as a nation would neither tolerate it nor allow it to sneak in under the guise of “religion.” Islam is merely political tyranny/torture masquerading as a “peaceful religion” and therefore does not warrant the protection that our founders envisioned.

The President hosts an Iftar dinner celebrating Ramadan in the State Dining Room. Stressing the tolerance and Respect of religions, he states we are all the ‘children of God’- people of all faiths ‘we are a nation of Christians and Muslims , Jews and Hindus and Non-believers, and shaped by every language and every culture’, as he defends right to build mosque near 9/11 site.

No we are not ALL CHILDREN of *Allah*

Notice he NEVER says...Muslims should respect freedom of Religion in Saudi Arabia, Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Indonesia and not be-head, Mame, In-prison or issue FATWAS on Jews and Christians!

He is a LIAR!

Satan is turning our religious freedom into a sword, which he plans to use against us. The battle is shaping up before our eyes.

Related thread here:

Shariah law in the U.S.: Gov.Paterson offers to make Islam the state-sponsored religion of NY

"Offering to provide government property for a house of worship normally would provoke howls of outrage from our hypersensitive friends on the left, who see grotesque breaches of the wall of separation between church and state even where the wall of their fevered imaginations doesn't exist.

Can you imagine the firestorm that would have erupted had the good governor offered to find state property for a Christian church? He'd have been dragged into court by the ACLU so fast it'd give him a nosebleed.

When Obama died, George Washington met him at the Pearly Gates. He slapped him across the face and yelled, "How dare you try to destroy the nation I helped conceive?"

Patrick Henry approached, punched him in the nose and shouted, "You wanted to end our liberties but you failed."

James Madison followed, kicked him in the groin and said, "This is why I allowed our government to provide for the common defense!"

Thomas Jefferson was next, beat Obama with a long cane and snarled, "It was evil men like you who inspired me to write the Declaration of Independence ."

The beatings and thrashings continued as George Mason, James Monroe and 66 other early Americans unleashed their anger on the radical, socialist leader.

As Obama lay bleeding and in pain, the death Angel appeared. Obama wept and said, "This is not what you promised me."

The Angel replied, "I told you there would be 72 VIRGINIANS waiting for you in Heaven. What did you think I said"....."You really need to listen when someone is trying to tell you something!"

“When did it start...”

Hillary Clinton began it in 1996 and continued it while she and Bill were in the White House.

“and did George Bush 43 continue it...”

Yes. With the exception of 2001, he held one through 2008. On the bottom of the page that is linked below, you will see chronicled under “Ramadan News” other administration events in 2002 that concern Ramadan. Though those pages are no longer accessible, it gives you an idea of what was going on at that time.

Ramadan 2002

This happened because the Republicans didn’t field a viable candidate. They must do better in 2012, or rest assured this country will be a shell of what it once was.
