America-Hating Muslim Supremist Pulled Strings for Obama at Harvard

No matter where you look into Obama’s past, one consistent thread in the tapestry of his life is his never ending retinue of America-hating, Caucasian-loathing Christophobic friends.
The foul and very rancid figure of Dr. Khalid al Mansour emerges as one of them. Here is a quote from one of his speeches.

“White people don’t feel bad, whatever you do to them, they deserve it, God wants you to do it and that’s when you cut out the nose, cut out the ears, take flesh out of their body, don’t worry because God wants you to do it.”(Source)

I would say he sits in the same pew as “Reverend” Wright, wouldn’t you?

Civil rights activist Percy Sutton said he was solicited by a man named Dr. Khalid al Mansour to send a letter of recommendation on behalf of Barack Obama to help him gain acceptance to Harvard many years ago. (This video and transcript is at the bottom of the post),

But who is Khalid al Mansour and how did he know Barack Obama? A cursory search on Youtube turns up several controversial clips, in the vein of Obama’s longtime friend and former pastor Rev. Jeremiah Wright. One of these videos is more than an hour long, but I am going to post here before I watch/transcribe everything in the interest in getting this into the hands of other bloggers who may know who this guy is. Here’s what I found….
[...]
Percy Sutton:”I was introduced to him by a friend who was raising money for him and the friends name was Dr. Khalid al Mansour from Texas. He is the principle adviser to one of the world’s richest men. He told me about Obama. He wrote to me about him and his introduction was ‘there is a young man that has applied to Harvard and I know that you have a few friends left there because you used to go up there to speak, would you please write a letter in support of him?’…I wrote a letter in support of him to my friends at Harvard saying to them I thought there was a genius that was going to be available and I sure hoped they would treat him kindly.”

Continue reading….Are Khalid al Mansour and Obama Friends?

I didn’t have to search long when I found this piece on Khalid Mansour. You have to wonder what a man who loathes the white race and Christianity found to recommend in Barack Obama. Well, I don’t wonder. They are on the same page in the same liberation theology book.

The Islamic Propagation Centre International is renowned for its ceaseless and well-funded attacks on Christianity. IPCI founder, Ahmed Deedat, has produced such scandalous booklets as “50 000 Errors in the Bible”, “Resurrection or Resuscitation”, “Crucifixion or ‘Cruci-Fic tion”, and “The God That Never Was”.

However, while the IPCI is no stranger to blasphemy, slander, half-truths and outright lies, even they must have been embarrassed by their much-acclaimed international guest speaker — Dr. Khalid Al-Mansour.
A MUSLIM SUPREMIST

As I attended their Wednesday, 24 October, rally in the Good Hope Centre, Cape Town, I was surprised by the extremism of Dr Al-Mansour. Seldom has it been my misfortune to endure such a loud illogical stream of venom from a public speaker. Al-Mansour must have been an embarrassment to all sane Muslims. Not that Christians don’t have some similar fanatics disgracing our podiums with hysteria and unsubstantiated drivel. But this American Muslim (described as a Californian lawyer, banker, businessman and activist) went beyond all extremes in his outrageous statements.

Al-Mansour claimed that Muslims were heirs to the greatest civilizations and achievements in history. Muslims had reached America before Columbus was born! The Zimbabwe Ruins had been built by Muslims, as had the Pyramids in Egypt. That the greatest strength of Black culture in Africa was literature. “Reading is our tradition. The slaves from Africa read, read, read.” That before the Whites came to Africa “To steal the land”, Blacks had built “great civilizations that had blast furnaces able to heat up to 1 000°C — making copper and knives and spears. We must rebuild our civilizations!” The first human beings in the world were Africans, he claimed.

Censorship: Barack Obama Flexes His Brown Shirt Muscles

The convention of Mad Marxists proceeds apace and the reknown photographer Zombie is keeping multiple audiences abreast of all of the antics of all the little beasties gathered in Denver. Michelle Obama, I hear, gave a dull and treacly speech, so one imagines that they must have her on a tight leash.

Equally noxious Kennedy idolatry ran rampant while outside the convention walls, on streets braided tightly with police, Michelle Malkin was accosted by frothing-at-the-mouth moonbat Alex Jones, who was screaming, among other absurdities, “Kill Michelle Malkin”. Perhaps he can apply for a job leading Obama’s future Brown Shirts, a role he seems most eminently qualified for.

Perhaps this Alex Jones is a harbinger of what we can expect to be given license from an Obama administration. Barack Obama has clearly signaled that he is not, nor will he be, a friend of free speech.

His “Most Precious” is stamping his feet and demanding the curtailment of the now familiar Ayers ad that suggests that America best give heed to warnings about Obama’s Marxist political roots and ideology.

I’d say Obama is a bit panicked, wouldn’t you? What’cha hiding Barry sweetie?

Ponder this as the dying Democrat Party emerges with their new Marxist face in Denver.

Sen. Barack Obama has launched an all-out effort to block a Republican billionaire’s efforts to tie him to domestic and foreign terrorists in a wave of negative television ads.

Obama’s campaign has written the Department of Justice demanding a criminal investigation of the “American Issues Project,” the vehicle through which Dallas investor Harold Simmons is financing the advertisements. The Obama campaign — and tens of thousands of supporters — also is pressuring television networks and affiliates to reject the ads. The effort has met with some success: CNN and Fox News are not airing the attacks.
[...]
“This is a sad ploy to circumvent the First Amendment by a campaign who has no arguments with the merits of our ad. It’s the classic maneuver: If you can’t win on the merits, file a lawsuit,” said a spokesman for the American Issues Project, Christian Pinkston, who said his group’s non-profit status allowed it to participate in elections as long as it does a majority of policy work, which it plans to do.
[...]
The Obama campaign plans to punish the stations that air the ad financially, an Obama aide said, organizing his supporters to target the stations that air it and their advertisers.

But the ad continues to air widely. Evan Tracey, who tracks campaign advertising at TNS Media Intelligence, said it has been broadcast 150 times in Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Michigan. Federal Election Commission reports indicate that Simmons has spent more than $2.8 million buying ads.

Obama Attacks Freedom of Speech

From Michelle Malkin….

The Obama campaign is giving a glimpse of the future for conservative free speech. They’re trying to sic the Justice Department on TV stations, many of them Sinclair Broadcasting stations, that are airing the independent ad on Obama and Bill Ayers.

Feel the chill in the air?
Obama threatens TV stations airing Ayers ad

The “progressives” have long had a problem with speech that displeases them. Recall also a similar stunt by the Clintons over the release of the movie “Path to 911″ . In looking for a link to reference that , I run into a more recent account and I was surprised to learn that the 40 million dollar production was never released as a DVD. Now there is a new documentary out that gives insight into the mechanics of the censorship involved.

Remember the controversy over the ABC miniseries “The Path to 9/11″? For some mysterious reason, it has yet to appear on DVD. Why might that be? Now the story is told in a documentary by John Ziegler that is to be screened tonight at the Skirball Center in Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Times reports:

["Blocking The Path to 9/11"] makes the case that former President Bill Clinton and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton have pressured television and studio executives into quashing the DVD release of ABC’s 2006 miniseries “The Path to 9/11.” The privately financed documentary argues that the Clintons, who decried the original miniseries as a right-wing hatchet job, are out to salvage their political influence and legacy at the expense of free expression.

We are informed by Andrew Breitbart that John Ziegler “is a really good guy” who understands the power of media bias. Andrew comments:

Countless movies are being made to affect the culture, the election. One was made that tried to play it straight, and because the Clintons pulled a stunt claiming it was a GOP hit job (what if it was?!), the producers were left holding the bag. A movie that was seen by tens of millions, cost $40 million to make and was stunningly photographed and entertaining, cannot make its way to the public via DVD. It’s pathetic and should outrage everyone.

China Jails Old Women for Asking Permission to Protest

DNC protestors - Zombie Image

It is is so ironic. Denver is infested with moronic vermin protesting against capitalism, against a free America. And in America, they are free to do so. I so very much wish I were free to send the little bastards off to China to protest. Perhaps the ungrateful freaks would finally get a clue.

OneNewsNow.com – Latest Blogs
Two elderly women have been sentenced to a year of labor re-education in China after applying for permits to demonstrate during the Beijing Olympics. The women wanted to protest their 2001 eviction from their homes, and had been to the Chinese police five times between August 5 and August 18 to gain approval to protest. Wang Xiuying, 77, and Wu Dianyuan, 79, were neither approved nor denied during the first three visits, but on the fourth visit were notified that they would receive a year’s punishment for “disturbing the public order.”

Their movement will be restricted and they are likely to face other requirements, according to the Washington Post.

“When I first heard about the possibility of being allowed to protest, I was very happy. My issue could be resolved. But it turned out all to be cheating . . . I feel stuck in my heart,” Wu said. Wu’s son, Li Xuehui, said that this type of punishment is usually reserved for “thieves and prostitutes.” He said “What the two old ladies did is nowhere near that.” He also pointed out that Wang is blind in one eye and can hardly see out of the other.

“We are a communist society, with the people the leaders and owners, but basic citizens’ rights cannot even be realized today. How sad it is. The way things are is the opposite of the ‘people-oriented’ ideology of the country when it was founded,” he said.

Barack Obama’s Word, What Is It Good For? (Absolutely Nuthin’)

“Senator Obama has not honored the promises he gave me when we met in 2006 and in his earlier letter to the school,” Principal Obiero has told the London-based, conservative tabloid EveningStandard. “He has not given us even one shilling. But we still have hope.”

“He has not given us even one shilling. But we still have hope.”

I wonder how much “hope” will buy you in Kenya. Probably as much as it will buy in America. What is Obama’s word worth? At most, not any more than any other two bit politician. But he has campaigned on the premise that he is a different sort of breed. When will Americans realize that he is nothing of the sort?

His brother, his grandmother Sarah (who also lives in a hut), this Kenyan school, his Chicago constituents – they all know the truth about Obama and his useless hope. Does the rest of America have to find out the hard way too?

Enter Baldilocks, who lives in a rough area of Los Angeles, is the caregiver for an elderly relative and worries, like most people, about her bills. She hasn’t got millions and didn’t attend an Ivy League school.

But she was embarrassed by her fellow Luo-American, Barack Obama. She rushed to fill the financial void, forming a California nonprofit to funnel money to the African school. With a flair for drama, she named it “Save Senator Obama Kogelo School” and held a mini fund-raiser. She’s raised $3,500, so she’s a long way from the $750,000 she wants to raise within two years.
Obama vs. Baldilocks

And then there is Obama’s brother George. The Republicans in Texas ask what any logical person must wonder; if Obama can’t take care of his half-brother, how the hell can anyone believes that he cares about total strangers.

H/T: LGF

In the end, all anyone has with Obama is this “nebulous” hope. And hope don’t spend.

The Democratic Campaign = Total Cockup.

Just go and read Captain Ed.

Maybe the frustration the Clintons feel comes from the fact that they actually lost to this candidate.

The measure of how deluded the Dhimmis are is that they didn’t learn a damn thing from the failed Kerry candidacy. I think we who are aware of the danger of an Obama Presidency and are therefore obsessed with seeing him defeated are going to have withdrawal symptoms after Nov when we no longer have to think or write about him.

Maybe Obama Just Likes What He Sees in China

Barack Obama:

“Everybody’s watching what’s going on in Beijing right now with the Olympics , Think about the amount of money that China has spent on infrastructure. Their ports, their train systems, their airports are vastly the superior to us now, which means if you are a corporation deciding where to do business, you’re starting to think, ‘Beijing looks like a pretty good option.’”
(Source)

Apparently if you are Barack Obama, any place besides America is a pretty good option.

Perhaps Obama’s crack foreign relations staff has been reading Mao too long. Maybe Obama is just so dazzled by China’s “vast” superiority, that he has overlooked what’s behind the infrastructure. Or maybe what he sees doesn’t upset him, he can live with it. Like Bill Ayers doesn’t upset him. Or Jeremiah Wright.

Yup, just could be that Obama likes what he sees in China.

Hey Obama!

Mugabe and Amadinejad

In case you missed it, China collaborated with your new best buddy Russia to circumvent any sanctions being lodged against Mugabee’s Zimbabwe. You remember Zimbabwe Obama? You made every pretense of being it’s staunch defender, demanding sanctions and new elections. Or maybe it is as this critic suggests about you Obama….

Mr. Senator to use a term like disastrous to describe what President Mugabe means to Zimbabwe…demonstrates that blinded political ambition which makes you feel like you must keep a safe distance from President Mugabe similar in the manner you claim not to identify with Nation Of Islam leader Minister Louis Farrakhan. I believe it was Minister Louis Farrakhan who endorsed your US Presidential bid in February, as well as, more recently, your former Pastor Reverend Jeremiah Wright. Mr. Senator, since Zimbabwe was not on the list of African countries you visited almost two years ago, so what makes you feel you are qualified to recommend what is in the best interest of the people and its government?
(Source)

(Yeah, well most of us are wondering what in God’s name makes him think he is qualified to be America’s leader, but hey, it’s the messiah.)

ahmadinejad + obama

Or maybe you are hoping that if you say nice things about China, they’ll say nice things about you to their business partner, Ahmadinejad . We all know how anxious you are to make his acquaintance. I mean, what does it matter that America seeks sanctions against him. If you are not going to look out for those you purport to support in Zimbabwbe ( instead of praising China, you could have taken them to task), what’s to stop you from ignoring America’s best interests as well. I mean, it’s all good, right?

But before daring to compare America to China, America, whom you’ve thought to be rather a bully in the world, perhaps you ought to review China’s locust like sweep over your African “motherland”. I mean, hey, when the West did it, we were evil mean colonialists.

Anyone who thinks that kind of ravenous acquisition of resources is a thing of the past should take a close look at the suction China is applying in the sub-Sahara.

The sub-Sahara is now the scene of one of the most bare-knuckled resource grabs the world has ever seen… an epic, almost primal propulsion that is redrawing the global economic map. One former U.S. assistant secretary of state has called it a “tsunami.” Some are even calling the region “ChinAfrica.”
[...]
As many as 1 million Chinese citizens are circulating here. … And unlike America’s faltering effort in Iraq, the Chinese ain’t spreading democracy, folks. They’re there to get what they need to feed the machine. The phenomenon even has a name on the ground in the sub-Sahara: the Great Chinese Takeout.
(Source)

Or maybe you are just giving China props as a nod to your entrepreneurial half-brother ( how many do you actually have? ) who presently lives there. (Do you think that between the two of you, you could get George out of that hut? ).

Or maybe you like the way they humiliate their military…

…on Friday, state media said the nearly 900 soldiers operating the huge scroll that formed the centrepiece of last week’s show had to stay hidden under the structure for up to seven hours, wearing nappies because they were not allowed toilet breaks.

Or, maybe you find their method of interviewing their citizens for Olympic jobs tantalizing….

Thousands of young Chinese women applicants for the 200 jobs to lead each country’s athletes into the National Stadium for last week’s opening ceremony of the 2008 Olympic Games had to be at least 1.66 metres tall, have a pretty face – and strip naked for the job recruiters. During the selection process, the women were required to strip so teachers judging whether they were qualified could measure their body proportions, The Beijing News said.

A good deal of that infrastructure you claim to admire may have been built by slave labor Obama. And I thought you had a real special spot in your heart for slaves.

Chinese slave labor

Police in north China on Friday announced they had rescued a further 220 slave workers from brick kilns and other illegal workplaces, such as small iron and coal mines.

The rescues of the workers, all in Shanxi Province, brings the total number of slave workers reported freed in China to 468 in the last month.

And why the hell would you care if corporations leave America anyway? After all, your wife scorns those ambitious and greedy kids who wish to pursue a corporate path. She wants America’s youth to choose the “helping” professions. Maybe that’s how you plan to rebuild America’s infrastructure Obama – with your “Youth Corps“. God knows that by the time you gut our economy, the only way that any infrastructure in this country will ever be built is with slave labor. Maybe that’s how our grandchildren will further their indoctrination education.

And who knows, maybe you admire the way the Chinese save money on animal control…..

China slaughtered 50,000 dogs in a government-ordered crackdown after three people died of rabies, sparking unusually pointed criticism in state media Tuesday and an outcry from animal rights activists.

Chinese Dog Slaughter

Health experts said the brutal policy pointed to deep weaknesses in the health care infrastructure in China, where only 3 percent of dogs are vaccinated against rabies and more than 2,000 people die of the disease each year.

The five-day slaughter in Mouding county in Yunnan province in southwestern China ended Sunday and spared only military guard dogs and police canine units, state media reported.

Or, maybe you like the way they toughen up their children for the cruel realities of life.

The smiling children giggled as they patted the young goat on its head and tickled it behind the ears.

Some of the more boisterous ones tried to clamber onto the animal’s back but were soon shaken off with a quick wiggle of its bottom.

It could have been a happy scene from a family zoo anywhere in the world but for what happened next.

Children feed goats before the ‘show’ starts. One that has been ‘bought’ by a visitor is carried off

A man hoisted up the goat and nonchalantly threw it over a wall into a pit full of hungry lions. The poor goat tried to run for its life, but it didn’t stand a chance. The lions quickly surrounded it and started tearing at its flesh.

“Oohs” and “aahs” filled the air as the children watched the goat being ripped limb from limb. Some started to clap silently with a look of wonder in their eyes.

The scenes witnessed at Badaltearing Safari Park in China are rapidly becoming a normal day out for many Chinese families.

Or perhaps their new mobil execution vans have appeal to you.

Executions in China

China is equipping its courts with mobile execution vans as it shifts away from the communist system’s traditional bullet in the head, towards a more “civilised” use of lethal injection.
[...]
Chinese authorities keep execution numbers a secret, but Western human rights monitors believe it is about 15,000 a year, more than the rest of the world’s judicial executions combined.

I’ll end with an admonition from Sultan Knish….

….any nation riding an economic boom based on slave labor is riding for a fall, whether domestic slaves or foreign slaves. In the United States alone the wounds of slavery continue to fester to this day and continue to exact a horrifying economic toll, particularly when you look at social services. And if you count illegal Mexican aliens as the new form of slave labor and the cost they carry, the toll gets uglier. Morally and economically slave labor is destructive, it breeds contempt for human life, dependency and in the end collapse. The search for cheap labor is what has brought Europe to its knees with Muslim immigration, it has gravely wounded the United States and may yet destroy it, whether in domestic problems or in the form of funding foreign Capitalist Tyrannies that will sell us the rope with which they will hang us.

Those are the real costs of Made in China, and a time when the country turns its eyes toward the Beijing Olympics, a spectacle based on oppression and lies, it is time to take a long hard look at the real cost of Made in China.

And Americans need to take a long hard look at the real cost of an Obama presidency.

“Freelance Humanitarians”

I variously call them do-gooders, tree huggers, social engineers, and, a number of vivid epithets. Sultan Knish calls them “freelance humanitarians” and that appellation is pure genius. And so is his post on this specious breed of soul meddlers, the last paragraph of which I quote below. I urge you to click over and read the whole lovely lot of it because he has a visceral understanding of these fools that is satisfying to read and savor.

Cloaking their love for atrocities in humanitarianism gives them the freedom to go anywhere and aid any terrorists and posture as injured lovers of humanity whenever they get into legal trouble. Gaining the best of both worlds, the thrill of mingling with killers and the whitewashed moral facade of secular humanitarian saints, they get to play Mother Theresa and Che in one, before updating the playlist on their iPhone and heading home for a job at daddy’s law firm, specializing of course in environmental law in between the occasional Obama Meetups.

And their greatest trick is convincing the world that they haven’t picked a side. Yeah right.

Uh Oh!-bama.

The latest weather report shows a big black [oops] cloud and a deepening depression forming over Democratic Party Headquarters. The Obarometer is falling fast and the forecasters are calling for increasing amounts of hot air with the hope that this will reverse the trend but there is a danger that it could feed the hurricane that is heading their way. They have a choice of battening down the hatches and trying to ride out the storm or hoping the high pressure system blowing in from New York bringing a big fat blonde white cloud will snuff out the newborn baby’s life guttering candle that is all that remains of the light of the glory of the coming of the One, or something.

Well they’re going to have to do something quick, there isn’t much time to Denver, let us pray not enough.

Hugh Hewitt on the Ayers/Obama friendship and the Annenberg Challenge.

The cover-up continues. What did the foundation do? Where did the money go? (That’s a lot of money.) How much was Obama paid? How much did the Obama-led foundation funnel to Ayers? To other south side figures like Jeremiah Wright and Father Phleger? How closely did Obama and Ayers work on the foundation’s business? Can we get a look at the expense accounts please?

Barack Obama’s Brother:

Obama's Brother

“I live like a recluse, no one knows I exist. I live on less than a dollar a month. If anyone says something about my surname, I say we are not related. I am ashamed.” (Source)

Barack Obama’s brother George lives on less than a dollar a month? I realize the price of arugula is going up, but couldn’t our prospective “wealth re-distributor in-chief” throw his baby brother a couple of bucks? For the price of one of his Hyde Park lattes Obama could quadruple what his brother scrapes by on now.

Think of the contrast in lifestyle. Obama shops at Whole Foods. George burrows for food in alleys. Obama lives in a million dollar mansion. George lives in a 3×3 shanty made of wood scraps and corrugated metal. Obama has a gate to protect his family. George has scars from fights in his Kenyan neighborhood where people are routinely hacked to death with machetes.

Obama, D-Ill., the presumptive Democratic Party nominee for president, mentions George briefly in one of his books, describing him as a beautiful 5-year-old boy, The Independent reports. Obama’s father, who met his mother when they were studying in Hawaii, returned to Kenya when the future senator was 2.

George, two decades younger than the U.S. senator, said he met him a second time in Kenya in 2006.

“It was very brief, we spoke for just a few minutes,” he said. “It was like meeting a complete stranger.”

With Obama’s “hate John McCain because he’s rich” ad, he’s insinuating that owning a number of houses – in realty, the McCains own a variety of investment properties, which accounts for John McCain’s not being able to give precise number – is somehow a character flaw. I couldn’t disagree more. I would argue this is a character flaw: allowing your brother to whither away in a hut in Nairobi, Kenya, while you’re living the good life in America.

Contrast that with John and Cindy McCain who, fifteen years ago, with a cleft palate from Sister Teresa’s orphanage in Bangladesh.adopted a 5 week old baby girl(Source)

Gone to Meetin’: DNC Convention Rev. Wright Style

It’s either that Obama really is an ace at audacity, or he simply doesn’t care. Rev Wright wasn’t good PR for Obama. And most folks, apparently, still want to sweep Wright and his black liberation theology under the rug as if it were some aberration. Much like we are expected to believe it was some egregious case of ADD that allowed Obama to assign his and his family’s spiritual care to a church and pastor for twenty years, yet remain totally oblivious to the heart of the man and institution. Unless, of course, it’s what he believes anyway.

Fallen: The "christian" Left

And that is my conclusion, it has always been my conclusion. Just as Obama judges the muslim call to prayer to be “one of the prettiest sounds on Earth”, black liberation theology offers an ideology that resonates ever so sweetly with Obama’s soul.

And so must it also resonate for John Dean and the DNC. I tell you what, if I were Rev Wright, I’d apply for re-admission on that bus. After all, it was America’s appalled response to black liberation theology that triggered the cowardly embarrassed Obama to shun his pastor. Yet, I have just discovered, Howard Dean’s chief of staff and chief executive in charge of the Denver DNC hullabaloo, Leah Daughtry, turns out to be, unashamedly, pounding on the same Marxist  pulpit as Rev Wright. (The IRS needs to be nosing around in these churches’ books. Seems to me that there is damn too much politicking going on in Sunday meetings.)

Like I said, it’s Gone to Meetin’ time in Denver. Ya’ll gonna get your honkey asses saved from your evil white spirit and you will come to know the glory of Obama – just as soon as you pony up some money for those reparations.

Daughtry is of the same school as Wright, according to the profile the New York Times ran of her on July 20, 2008. As daughter to Herbert Daughtry, Wright’s fellow traveler, Leah Daughtry has preached in her father’s church with its “simple wooden cross hung on a brick wall in the vaulted and sizable sanctuary… [and] below the sanctuary, in the fellowship hall, a banner for slavery reparations proclaimed, ‘They Owe Us.’”

When she speaks about black liberation theology and its author, James Cone, Daughtry’s voice takes on an “extra passion.” Daughtry doesn’t distance herself from Cone’s book “A Black Theology of Liberation” because she thinks Americans are more concerned about “disparities” in American society than they are about ideas dependent for their validity on Malcolm X’s Islamic radicalism.

The excerpts of Daughtry’s “sermon” which the NYT’s Daniel Bergner quotes reflect Wright’s anthropocentric rather than Christocentric sensibility that is the hallmark of liberation theology.

Obama will have no trouble embracing Daughtry. He may have tossed Wright under the bus, but he has never tossed Malcolm X who is the source of the noxious “theology” James Cone created and Jeremiah Wright taught him. He’ll feel right at home.
The DNC to Feature Wright in a Dress

It amazes me what passes for Christianity these days.

“Some would say with Marxist Momma in the top job, it’s little wonder why Barack Obama is the DNC’s Golden Boy coming to Denver with mainstream media garnered rock star status.”

Daughtry also told The Hill it actually “makes me angry” that the “far right” has cornered the market on religion.

Damning America

The Times reported Daughtry, 44, “is leading the Democratic Party’s new mission to make religious believers – particular ardent Christian believers – view the party and its candidates as receptive to, and often impelled by, the dictates of faith.” (Source)

So I am assuming these “believers” are well aware that Obama’s “faith” dictates that he “ardently” supports gays/bis/lesbos/transgendereds/freaks [ed:link goes to graphic images] (and he supports their “right” to indoctrinate your kids) and, I am assuming, the Marxist Mama running the show has found her peace with God when it comes to killing babies, cause Obama is damned determined that there will be much more blood shed in the womb excavating business. Yes indeed, if she is cut from the same “christian” cloth as Obama, she’s a fine fit for the party that will never let a perversion remain taboo and hasn’t met a dictator, rapist, murderer or thief that they couldn’t love (unless they are conservative).

A Little Something……

Barak Obama: Raping America for the “Greater Good”

Confiscatory Tax Rate Dreams from my Father

Lisa Schiffren

This is a must read piece from Investors Business Daily. Barack Obama seems to have spent a lifetime pining for the father who abandoned him at age 2. His first autobiography (and what 47 year old doesn’t need two?) was dedicated to the man. Now he has issued the essential blueprint for the Obama Tax Code, and we find that it too is part of dad’s legacy. Naturally, candidate Obama Jr. wishes to raise taxes on the productive and the married, (especially two-income professional families — which will chase educated women from the work force, as the NY Sun discussed brilliantly, here) And, naturally, he wishes to redistribute money to those who work less, or don’t work at all — in the form of tax “credits” — which will put money in your pocket whether you have paid any taxes or not. That is a trick devised long ago, (Nixon era, sigh), and enshrined in the (GOP-supported) Earned Income Tax Credit — which has always been a welfare program for the working poor. (Peter Ferrara explains clearly how Obama taxes = welfare, here.)

Under Obama, everyone who isn’t “rich” — a number he won’t specify, (but let’s say — $250,000 per year) deserves support. And everyone who isn’t “poor” gets to pay for it. The upper middle class, whose income ususually come in the form of salaries, gets to support the rest of the country. As for the truly rich — well, a truly rich man I met recently told me about the process for obtaining a second passport and dual citizenship in a tax haven — which he had been investigating. Applications are up. In our very mobile times, the truly rich, and the financial industries which make them that way, generally can find a way around onerous taxes.

Way back in the fifties when I got my first serious camera, a Contaflex 1, and Kodak brought out the fabulous Tri X, the first high speed b and w film, originally ASA 200 then ASA 400 but could be pushed to 800 or even 1600 with special development, available light photography became fashionable. And so, since what we start with seems to form pathways in the brain, [which is why the aging boomers still listen to the Beatles and the Beach Boys], I still love the special quality of indoors available light even though the pics are usually a bit grainy, or ‘noisy’ now that it’s digital instead of film. I’ve copied an old print from 1958, fifty years ago!, taken on Tri X, and though not indoors, it was quite low light level. One of my brothers giving advice to another brother working on his bike, if I’d had a wide angle lens in those days I could have taken the whole scene instead of having to take two pics. Note the ever present teacup and with a saucer even!

Here is one from last week of daughter and granddaughter of course.

Cry Me a River Muslim Man

Muslim apologist, agitator activist and ambulance chaser attorney, Junaid Afeef, was poking his nose into the land of Sass here, doing the usual Muslim whine without offering any refutations or viable arguments to support his accusations.

This article/essay is full of errors.

Your understanding of Islam is woefully lacking, your MO is quite obvious and your reasoning leaves a lot to be desired.

Islam is in fact a religion of peace. Islam categorically prohibits offensive warfare and it absolutely forbids rape, mayhem, pillaging and wanton destruction.

Lastly, while the police may use modus operandi (MO) as one factor in an investigation, an MO is not a credible piece of evidence.

This blog is full of anti-Muslim bigotry (called Islamophobia).

Glancing through his blog and googling his name, I see that the poor, anguished lad is just obsessed with Islamaphobia. Everywhere the punk looks, there is yet another sane individual who just will not fall for his BS. And see, if you don’t buy into the “Religion of Peace”, you are automatically an “islamaphobe”.

Turns out that he tried to peddle his swill in the Wall Street Journal and those readers weren’t buying it either.
Debbie Schlussel made note of his pathetic efforts and reproduced the less than enthusiastic responses. So you see Mr. Afeef, it’s as I told you. People from all walks of life are waking up to the bogus claims of islam and if I were you, I’d hide my naked butt cause folks can see, islam has no clothes on. (And it ain’t a pretty sight)

Last week, on the eve of Independence Day, the Wall Street Journal Op-ed page ran a piece by Islamofascist Junaid Afeef, “Obama Should Embrace His Muslim Heritage.” The piece contained the usual BS you hear from Islamic Spokesmodels: that Islam is peaceful, that most Muslims are moderate, that they are the victims of all of us who are unduly prejudiced, that they would all put down their AK-47s and disposable Tracfone IEDs tomorrow if only Obama would embrace his ties to them, yadda, yadda, yadda, dogpoop, dogpoop, dogpoop.

Well, it seems that the well educated WSJ readers aren’t buyin’. Today, the Journal ran a selection of letters, and every single one of ‘em is good. The first one, I don’t agree with the first half of it. But the last sentence is pretty good. I’m putting that letter last. The rest are excellent!:

It is not irrational to fear Islam when we daily see property being destroyed and people murdered by terrorists, who use Islamic teachings and quote directly from Quranic verses to justify their actions.

Moderate Muslims have not been able to use theology to effectively refute the terrorists. We see the lack of women’s rights and lack of freedoms that exist wherever Islam rules. All cultures are not equal and we don’t want the Islamic culture introduced into the West. Our ancestors worked too long and too hard for the freedoms that we have, and we don’t want to be taken back to a 7th-century misogynistic, totalitarian ideology that cloaks itself within religious doctrine in order to hide its true goal of world domination.

I believe the anti-Muslim sentiments are not a product of fear or a lack of understanding. Rather they are based on a perception that Islam and mainstream democratic values are somehow irreconcilable.

I can’t say that I have read, seen or heard everything, but since 9/11 the Muslim world community has not raised its voice in anger against the terrorist perpetrators of evil. Why not? They raise their voices against cartoonists and authors; why not against killers?

Those in the Muslim world who stay silent are the true Islamophobes. Do they fear their own religion and so do not dare risk challenging the killers?

Mr. Afeef, look inward, and get your imams to issue fatwas condemning Osama bin Laden and all his ilk at every mosque world-wide and Islamophobia will disappear.

Rather than trying to debunk the bigotry of Islamophobes, I would ask Mr. Afeef to address the shortcomings of his own faith and its lack of a discernible, peaceful direction. Don’t smear the African-Americans, Chinese, Latinos and Jews of this country by associating their respective oppressions with the plight of today’s Muslim.

Denounce the violence, human rights violations and religious intolerance that are pervasive in Muslim nations, and watch the fear and lack of understanding of Islamophobes in America erode.

Regarding Junaid Afeef’s “Obama Should Embrace His Muslim Heritage” (op-ed, July 3): As a Christian I wouldn’t mind hearing Barack Obama positively acknowledge his father’s Muslim background. It could be a very good thing, especially given Mr. Obama’s exposure and international credibility. But to do so with a “can’t we all get along” ethos, as Mr. Aleef seems to suggest, will be no more helpful than Islamic public relations straining to assure the world that “jihad” is not just confined to a holy war intended to kill unbelievers.

Mega-Kudos to all of these well-educated people. They are not fooled by the well-greased Islamic PR machine.

Connecting the Energy Dots

After 9.11, everyone was all about connecting the dots. Oh, if we only had connected those damn dots, we would have seen those planes coming. Well, try these dots. We posted on how Pelosi’s obstruction of an energy vote looks pretty damn bad in light of her investment in T. Boone Pickens’ wind power scam.

Well, Sweetness & Light connects another dot in her comment on Soros’s $811 million investment in Brazil’s Petroleo Brasileiro Oil.

I quote:

So now we understand the Democrats’ no-drill policies.

They can’t undercut their sugar daddy.

From her article quoted from Bloomberg…

Billionaire investor George Soros bought an $811 million stake in Petroleo Brasileiro (Petrobras) in the second quarter, making the Brazilian state-controlled oil company his investment fund’s largest holding.

As of June 30, the stake in Petrobras, as the Rio de Janeiro-based oil producer is known, made up 22 per cent of the $3.68 billion of stocks and American depositary receipts held by Soros Fund Management, according to a filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. Petrobras has since slumped 28 per cent…

In November, Petrobras announced the discovery of Tupi, a field with as much as 8 billion barrels of reserves, making it the largest find in the Americas since 1976.

Now, connect the energy dots to the food chain dots. Soros does, as we noted in Soros, Famine, Energy, and the End of Sovereign Nations. Here is another dot to add to the collection…

Farmland is enjoying its biggest revival in 30 years as investors including George Soros and TIAA-Cref bet that crop prices, chiefly grains, will be supported by shortfalls in production as demand mounts. In parts of the Midwestern U.S., land prices have risen as much as threefold, while broker Knight Frank LLP estimates U.K. values rose 38 percent on average in the first half alone.

“Some of the opportunities internationally are outstanding,” Bridgeman said in an interview at his office in London. He favors farms in Australia, Brazil, Canada and Romania, where he expects higher returns than in the U.S, or his native U.K.
[...]
Billionaire investor George Soros owns a stake in Adecoagro SA, the owner of 225,000 hectares (556,000 acres) of farmland in Argentina, Brazil and Uruguay. TIAA-Cref, the largest manager of retirement funds in the U.S., said it bought $340 million of farmland in seven states in the U.S. at the end of last year.

Bridgeman said investors in the Schroder fund will gain a diversified range of investments spread across Europe, South America and Australia, while the units listed in London will be traded on a daily basis.
Schroders Plans to Raise $480 Million for Global Farmland Fund

The elites have got to really be rolling in belly laughs watching the stupid Americans scrambling about with all of their goofy Green campaigns, their idiot hybrids, their curly light bulbs and now, their tire gauges. As the grown-up countries in the world scramble to get their share of the earth’s resources – and re-arrange a few borders while they are at it – the dimwitted denizens of this once proud nation shed tears over Polar Bears and mother earth.

Soros, Heinz, Pelosi, Bush, Clinton, Obama, McCain, their masters and their multitudinous retinue of lackeys and international troops of minions are re-shaping the world in front of our eyes while, like obsessive compulsive psychopaths, we engage in feverish discussions about who should and who should not be permitted to say nigger during the most critical presidential election in this nation’s history. We ain’t going to be calling each other nothing but losers if we keep acting like the world is the la la land Obama and crew want us to believe.

If a future generation of Americans somehow survive the debacle we now bring upon them, they will curse us from the depth of their souls. As they should, as they damn well should…

Tattle-Tale Obama

Obama rates high for swarminess……

He was a whiny kid very early on, and his character has not changed. All of us knew one of THIS sort of kid in school, didn’t we? And we couldn’t stand his smarmy little ass.

His second- grade teacher, Cecilia Sugini, says he often led his peers when they lined up single-file for class and was quick to let her know when other pupils misbehaved.

Control Freak

“He’d tell me to make them stop,” Sugini, 63, said in an interview.

Be honest, who really can put up with anal retentive, nosy, control freaks? We all have known them and learned to shun them. How can a sane populace elect one?

Barack Obama’s Very Dirty ACORN

Barack paid ACORN unit at least $850K

Irrefutable evidence indicates that Obama’s campaign has been doing business with CSI, which appears to have been operating fraudulently in the State of Maryland and Ohio, and ACORN, which has been associated with a laundry list of fraudulent business practices. The full nature of the relationship between ACORN and Citizens Services Inc. is not known but this much is clear: both share the same address in New Orleans and officials with CSI refer folks to ACORN for questions about “political consulting” and “Get-Out-The-Vote” activities. These are questions that mainstream media should examine.
[...]
Indeed Obama has a long history of working with ACORN in his community organizing days in Chicago. A subsidiary of ACORN, Citizens Services Inc (CSI), is part of what John Fund of the Wall Street Journal calls “Obama’s Liberal Shock Troops”.

For example, a search for ACORN at the 1024 Elysian Fields Avenue address in New Orleans uncovers at least 70 different organizations operating out of that front. One of these, Citizens Services Inc, has received almost $1 million dollars from Barack Obama’s campaign in the last five months….

ACORN fraud expands beyond elections

Barack Obama’s ACORN is part of the problem. Involved in voter registration fraud and embezzlement, ACORN also bears some responsibility for the housing crash.
Townhall:

ACORN’s “victories” often have harmed rather than helped their intended beneficiaries. ACORN-sponsored community groups, for instance, regularly have invoked the Community Reinvestment Act of 1977 in their attempts to block bank acquisitions and mergers with flimsy charges of mortgage lending “discrimination.” The current mortgage meltdown, especially in the subprime market, in large measure owes to lenders responding to pressure to increase loan volumes to barely qualified or outright unqualified borrowers, many of whom now have lost their homes.

Undoubtedly.

We have evidence of voter registration fraud in Wisconsin, Townhall recalls Obama supporter McCaskill in Missouri (remember):

In 2006, for example, ACORN members engaged in vote fraud in several states, especially Missouri. In that state’s Senate race, Democratic challenger Claire McCaskill defeated Republican incumbent James Talent by about a 50,000-vote margin. A sizable portion of that margin was attributable to ACORN organizers submitting phony or at least suspicious voter-registration cards to election officials in the St. Louis and Kansas City metro areas. Several ACORN members in Kansas City were indicted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office just prior to Election Day, and eventually pleaded guilty. Rathke, not one for subtlety, called City of St. Louis election officials “slop buckets” when they questioned the veracity of ACORN-submitted forms. And who was Missouri state auditor during 2006? That would be Claire McCaskill.

(whose husband was also an “affordable” housing magnate, as was Obama’s buddy Tony Rezko)

Frisco foundation head repays $1 million embezzlement

The head of a foundation that has funneled millions to liberal causes anonymously repaid $1 million embezzled from one of the organizations the foundation financially supports.

The New York Times reported Sunday that Drummond Pike secretly agreed to replace the money embezzled from the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or Acorn. Pike is chief executive of the San Francisco-based Tides Foundation.

According to the Times, Pike was aiding Wade Rathke, the Acorn founder and a Tides Foundation board member, when he decided to buy the promissory note requiring the Rathke family to repay money taken by Rathke’s brother, Dale.

Acorn discovered the embezzlement in 2000, but did not alert law enforcement officials. Acorn’s management committee instead negotiated an agreement to have the Rathke family pay back the stolen funds.

They Say Islam Is……

They say that there is religious tolerance and freedom in Islam, but then, there is always news like this…

A Saudi Arabian Muslim father cut out his daughter’s tongue and lit her on fire upon learning that she had become a Christian.The child became curious about Jesus Christ after she read Christian material online, the Gulf News reported.

Her father read of her Internet conversation, detached her tongue and burned her to death “following a heated debate on religion,” according to an International Christian Concern report.

The father is employed by the muwateen, or Commission for Promotion of Virtue and Prevention of Vice. The muwateen are police tasked by the government with enforcing religious purity. The man has been taken into custody, and his identity has not been released.

The ICC pointed out the United States Commission on International Religious Freedom has reported textbooks at the Saudi Arabian government school in Northern Virginia teach, “It is permissible for a Muslim to kill an apostate (a convert from Islam).” (Source)

They say that Islam respects and honors their women, that their women are better off than Western women, but then, there is always news like this…
…

Beneath the anonymity of the sky-blue burqa, Saliha’s slender frame and voice betray her young age.Asked why she was serving seven years in jail alongside hardened insurgents and criminals, the 15-year-old giggled and buried her head in her friend’s shoulder.

“She is shy,” apologised fellow inmate Zirdana, explaining that the teenager had been married at a young age to an abusive husband and ran away with a boy from her neighbourhood.

Asked whether she had loved the boy, Saliha squirmed with childish embarrassment as her friend replied: “Yes.”

Ostracised from her family and village, Saliha was convicted of escaping from home and illegal sexual relations. The first carries a maximum penalty of 10 years, the second 20. These are two of the most common accusations facing female prisoners in Afghanistan.

Two-thirds of the women in Lashkar Gah’s medieval-looking jail have been convicted of illegal sexual relations, but most are simply rape victims – mirroring the situation nationwide. The system does not distinguish between those who have been attacked and those who have chosen to run off with a man.

Sitting among the plastic flowers around his desk, where an optimistic United Nations scales of justice poster competed for space with images of Afghanistan’s President, Hamid Karzai, Colonel Ghulam Ali, a high-ranking regional security officer, explained sternly that he supported the authorities’ right to convict victims of rape. “In Afghanistan whether it is forced or not forced it is a crime because the Islamic rules say that it is,” he claimed. “I think it is good. There are many diseases that can be created in today’s world, such as HIV, through illegal sexual relations.” (source)

They say that Islam is a mature and sophisticated belief system, but then they celebrate Ashura every year.

A devout Muslim forced two teenage boys to whip themselves with a bladed flail during a religious ceremony, a court has been told

Syed Mustafa Zaidi, 44, is said to have handed the youngsters the implement as members of the Shia community in Manchester celebrated the traditional ceremony of Ashura.The boys, aged 15 and 13, then took turns to flagellate themselves in front of a large crowd of men.

Ashura

Zaidi, of Eccles, Greater Manchester, is the first person in Britain to be prosecuted over the use of a Zanjeer Zani – a wooden-handled implement fitted with five chains, each of them bearing a curved knife.

Although the practice of self-flagellation is common among Shia Muslims, allowing children to harm themselves is allegedly contrary to British law.

Zaidi is charged with inflicting two acts of child cruelty during a ceremony at a community centre in Levenshulme, Manchester, on January 19. (Source)

They say that Islam is compatible with Western freedoms, but in country after country, free speech is under attack by Islamists.

To understand what’s at stake, look at the case of Rachel Ehrenfeld, in whose honor it has been nicknamed “Rachel’s Law.” In 2003, Ms. Ehrenfeld, an expert on terrorism who has served as an adviser to the Department of Defense, published “Funding Evil,” a study of how terrorist networks are financed. A Saudi billionaire sued her for libel in Britain, where the burden of proof for such lawsuits is lower than in America. Though only 23 copies of her book had been sold in Britain, its court found against Ms. Ehrenfeld, ordering her to have her book pulped and to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars in damages.

The judgment of the British court cannot be enforced in America. But the cost and burden to Ms. Ehrenfeld of defending the suit sent a message to any writer, or any publisher, contemplating a book on the subject of Islamist terror. “In effect,” wrote a senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center, Stanley Kurtz, “the Internet-driven internationalization of publishing is nullifying America’s First Amendment protections.”

Islam Loathes Freedom

As the capital of America’s publishing industry, New York is especially vulnerable to this threat. That’s why the State Legislature unanimously passed, and on April 30 Governor Paterson signed, a state version of Rachel’s Law. “New Yorkers must be able to speak out on issues of public concern without living in fear that they will be sued outside the United States, under legal standards inconsistent with our First Amendment rights,” Mr. Paterson said at the time.

The federal law as drafted won’t end all threats of foreign hassling of American-based journalists. We think of Mark Steyn, whose column regularly appears in these pages. Mr. Steyn spent the last year defending himself against charges brought by the Canadian Islamic Congress that an excerpt from his bestselling book “America Alone” suddenly constituted, when it was published in Maclean’s magazine, an incitement to hatred of Muslims. He was not sued in a regular court, with its legal protections and rules of evidence. Instead, he was hauled up before the Canadian Human Rights Commission, an unaccountable tribunal with sweeping powers to stamp out any speech it considers offensive.

After coming in for unprecedented public criticism over the Steyn case, the commission eventually dismissed the charges against him, though a case before the British Columbia Human Rights Tribunal is still pending. The Ehrenfeld and Steyn cases are but two examples in a trend that prompted the New Criterion magazine, along with the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, to host in April a conference on “Free Speech in the Age of Jihad.” The proceedings have just been issued as a pamphlet, underscoring that across the Western world, legal and quasi-legal mechanisms are being used to try to block open criticism of Islam or of prominent Muslims.
