Camille Paglia, a democrat with brain, on her disappointment with Obama: As an Obama supporter and contributor, I am outraged at the slowness with which the standing army of Democratic consultants and commentators publicly expressed discontent with the administration’s strategic missteps this year. I suspect there had been private grumbling all along, but the media warhorses failed to speak out when they should have — from week one after the inauguration, when Obama went flat as a rug in letting Congress pass that obscenely bloated stimulus package. Had more Democrats protested, the administration would have felt less arrogantly emboldened to...

Sura 4:34 "and leave them alone in the sleeping-places and beat them;" With the exception of the late Andrea Dworkin, no feminist was ever heard to utter even the faintest sound about the treatment of women in Islam? Why?!? Why hasn’t the National Association of Women, other such organizations and every single feminist leaders ever made a statestment, a plea, for better conditions and full equality for women in every part of the world, regardless of creed or skin color? It would seem that in spite of all their pronouncements about women in the West they either harbor a fear...

He who is merciful to the cruel, will become cruel to the merciful. Al Taqyyaa and political correctness are recipes for irreversible damage to the values of freedom and liberty, which are the foundation of our US constitution and other Western liberal democracies. There is nothing "progressive" about covering up misogyny, there is nothing "progressive" about defending oppression and attacking courageous voices like Dr. Wafa Sultan.

I'm not a socialist! Anyone who has followed my posts knows how forcefully I oppose anything even remotely connected to Marxism or the ever increasing governments' decisions to part their constituents from their hard earned money. I am neither blind nor a knee jerk ideologue, however, and I fully recognize that my side isn't necessarily always the sole repository of universal political truth. [...]How does one treat terrorists? Deal with them and you're done for; don't and innocents die. But...if you deal with them, if you give in "just once" you'll give in again and again and far more innocents...

A highly influential Shi’a religious leader, with whom Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad regularly consults, apparently told followers last month that coercion by means of rape, torture and drugs is acceptable against all opponents of the Islamic regime ...Mesbah-Yazdi is considered Ahmadinejad’s personal spiritual guide. A radical totalitarian even in Iranian terms, he holds messianic views, supports increasing Islamization, calls for violent suppression of domestic political opponents, and, according to the ITIC, “declared that obeying a president supported by the Supreme Leader was tantamount to obeying God.” Asked if a confession obtained “by applying psychological, emotional and physical pressure” was “valid...

Muslims must tackle theology of hate Abdullah Saeed EVENTS of the past decade have shown that small groups of militant extremist Muslims have a remarkable ability to create havoc in much of the world: killing, suicide bombing and destruction in the name of Islam. That the number of these militant extremists is small is not a good reason for the majority of Muslims to remain silent. That the number of these militant extremists is small is not a good reason for the majority of Muslims to remain silent. The author of the article IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! Silence, on the...

Ah, but I can hear you gentle reader… if the whole world becomes Muslim, peace will surely reign universal. Will it? Well… that would depend whether the world is all Sunni, or all Shiite and even then… It was me AGAINST my brother, Me and my brother AGAINST my father, My family AGAINST my cousins and the clan, The clan AGAINST the tribe, The tribe AGAINST the world, And all of us AGAINST the infidels. So, why would peace loving Muslim organizations fail to condemn their extremists?!?!? Care to venture a guess, gentle reader? Shall we just stand idly by...

Quite often a President, or the leading party (if they are not the same), may push for some initiative that encounters serious opposition. That is how a free government is meant to work. Such is the beauty of democracy that it allows for a healthy debate and eventually a more amenable bill is hammered out and passed. President Obama, like his predecessors, is also encountering some rough waters just as he thought there would be smooth sailing since his Democrats command a comfortable majority in both houses of Congress. The opposition, however, is far more vocal on the streets than...

As Winston Churchill once put it, "Democracy is a terrible system, but it is the best we got!" In spite of its myriad flaws, no other political system has yet been devised that can even equal it. Look at the failure of every other recent "ism" from Mussolini's fascism in Italy, to Hitler's Nazism in Germany, to Russia's communism they have all miserably, desastrously failed! In fact, Russia itself is now fiercely capitalist.

In all fairness to President Obama and his people, such reporting activities are admittedly not of their own invention. It's been long tried with various degrees of success... Most notably and recently, it was standard practice (to name just a few places) in Communist Russia; it's been tried under Mussolini's fascista regime in Italy and under Hitler's regime in Nazi Germany... Is there a compelling reason, under Obama, to join ranks with such scourges of history?!?!? Should I and thousands of bloggers expect the FBI to knock on our doors (to send us to some hidden Gulag, I presume) because...

Nigeria: Thirteen-year-old forced to watch Pastor hacked to death in Boko Haram deadly violence 05/08/2009 A thirteen-year-old Nigerian Christian has told Christian Solidarity Worldwide (CSW) sources how she was forced to watch her pastor’s murder, and has also spoken of her four-day ordeal as a prisoner in the besieged compound of Islamist group, Boko Haram.

A friend just sent me the following, it may be short and simplistic but it's the best explanation I've ever seen on Obama's [Failed] Theory of Economics: An economics professor at a local college made a statement that he had never failed a single student before, but had once failed an entire class. That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great equalizer. The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment, in this class, on Obama's plan." All grades would be averaged and everyone...

Born in Cairo (Egypt) in 1929 Yasser Arafat – the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem (Haj Amin Al-Husseini, Hitler’s bosom buddy) niece’s little boy – soon became known as a “moderate” to the peace loving West. He was regarded as someone who was generally interested in ending the fighting with Israel while ensuring the rights of Palestinians. In spite of his murderous deeds against the Zionist Entity and the West (airplane hijackings, Achille Lauro, Munich, murdering American diplomats, etc.) in spite of wreaking havoc in Jordan and Lebanon (both countries had to throw him out!) somehow he was regarded as the...

Since our illustrious President - the first black American ever elected to that office - took over the White House, Congress has spared no time spending tax payer money at blinding speed. Now, at the President's behest, they are pushing a health-care bill, a bill he has admitted he never read. A bill over 1000 pages long, which no one in Congress - by their own admission - has bothered to read either!!! [...]Shocked, gentle reader? The government by passing this bill is telling you that your parents or you, if you are over a certain age, have no right...

War is painful, war is horrific. It should be avoided as long as possible and only when everything has fully failed should it reluctantly be adapted as the means to a solution. There will always be innocents who suffer in any conflagration, but when news from a war zone are reported how much gets ignored because does not fit into the reporter’s or his/her organization’s agenda, how much gets distorted?!?!? [...]You still wonder, gentle reader, why Israel was fighting? Read it here, here or here. As you will see, none of those quoted are Jooz, none are Zioniss, none even...

When a politician drops a bombshell, it is natural that there be all sorts of puzzled queries as to the meaning of that surprise announcement. Sarah Palin, in her first gubernatorial term, announced her resignation as Alaska's governor on Friday. Immediately the speculation started as to what could be behind such a sudden decision. All this is understandable and very much expected. What isn't expected, what isn't natural, what is downright despicable, however, is how some liberals like The New York Times' Maureen Dowd reacted. Understandably all sorts of ideas, however far fetched, were floated as to the possible motive....

Honduran President Manuel Zelaya tried to play the Chavez gambit, even though the Honduran Supreme Court had already unequivocally declared the Referendum (for the President to be able to run indefinitely!) as unconstitutional. The Honduran National Congress, where the majority of its members belong to the ousted president’s own party, voted to remove him in a procedure fully in accordance with the Honduran Constitution. The Honduran Army by detaining and exiling Zelaya was only following the directive of its Congress. Venezuela’s malodorous piece of Devil’s excreta, Hugo Chavez, and Cuba’s Castro felt this action was akin to a coup and...

This past Sunday, the Lebanese stopped - at least temporarily - Hizbulla’s, Iran’s and Syria’s dreams of taking over Lebanon. Blacksmiths of Lebanon presents an exhaustive analysis of the election. Most political pundits expected Hizbullah and its political block to emerge victorious but Lebanese sanity prevailed. People have not yet forgotten the destruction wrought on Lebanon by Hizbullah’s recklessness and are therefore not ready to trust their future welfare to these thugs. I can only sit back and admire Lebanon and its democratic ways, so unlike the rest of the Arab world. Having said that, Saad Hariri (murdered Rafik Hariri’s...

Through an admixture of military strategy, politics and diplomacy General Petraeus managed to do what none of his predecessors was capable of. When the scholarly general took over command of coalition troops in Iraq, the situation on the ground was chaotic. By the time he left, many former enemies had forged an alliance with the Iraqi and coalition forces. His accomplishment are many, his intellectual acumen is uncommon. [...]General Petraeus, indeed, has a distinguished career filled with admirable accomplishements I have no doubt he will continue to serve this country with honor and class. Because of all the above I...

The Religion of Peace, that very same one that would behead anyone who who dares say they are not peaceful, has shown its fangs again. Nope, it wasn’t against dem Jooz from that Zionist Entity, this time. It was against Christians who have lived in the Holy Land for centuries before anyone ever heard or knew of Islam and Mohammed (PBUH). RAMALLAH, West Bank, May 24 (Reuters) - Vandals desecrated some 70 graves in two Palestinian Christian cemeteries on Sunday in what a Palestinian Authority official said was a rare attack on the Christian minority in the occupied West Bank.......
