What the liberal news media doesn't want you to think about Black people.

The leftist, mainstream news media is virtually 100% Democrat (at least those who are not outright Communists) and they all bend over backwards at every opportunity to fawn adoration over Marxist/Socialist, Communist-mentored Barack Hussein Obama. So much to the effect they come across as a propaganda machine for a state-run news media. Anyone criticizing their adored and messiah-worshipped great leader gets labeled a racist. I know, read the comment on my previous post. So it is not surprising that the liberal and very much biased media stereotype certain groups to portray mirror images of themselves. According to the liberal media all Black people also love Obama and while that is mostly true it is not 100% true. Here is some surprising proof thanks to Kevin Jackson on The Black Sphere.

Black Conservatives Praise the Constitution, Guns and God

Watch this AMAZING video and enjoy the TRUTH!!!

“Without God, without guns and without the Constitution, America’s end will come with haste!” 

“For when they change our Constitution, they will take our guns. And when they take our guns, they will also seek to take our God. That’s when Americans will fight back.” 

“There is a direct correlation between gun control and black people control.”

 

 

  

How to understand Obama's double-talk when he says: " We’re Not Taking Away Anyone’s Gun Rights"

Just for starters, the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution says: "A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed." The U.S. Supreme Court has twice ruled on the issue of what "infringed" means. Democratic Socialist, Communist mentored Barack Hussein Obama does not understand or will not admit that he understands what this means. So Obama spews out rhetoric that is filled with double-talk and the news media sucks it up and dares not to question a word. Just as no one asked Obama to explain what he meant when he said he was going to "Fundamentally change America." And how many people today wish they knew what he meant by that? So let me try to offer my explanation to what Barry Soetoro //aka// Barack Hussein Obama is saying. 

Compiled and placed in chronological order from the web sites Townhall, Gun Blast.com and the Free Republic.com who did an excellent job finding most of these quotes from Obama over the years. Some of the earlier quotes before the start of the presidential campaign in 2008 were quite candid and hardly need any explanation. The later one's were more obscure and vague and definitely need to be examined. 

Of course, we all remember Joe Biden's famous statement from the 2008 campaign.

Flashback – Joe Biden in 2008: “I Guarantee You Barack Obama Ain’t Taking My Shotguns” (Video)
Posted by Jim Hoft on Thursday, January 10, 2013, 11:38 AM

Back in 2008 Joe Biden guaranteed the American public that Obama would not take your guns.

“Don’t buy that malarkey.”

But that was in 2008…
Yesterday Joe Biden said “>Obama could take your guns by executive order.

It’s funny how things change once a Democrat gets into office.

“What we’re proposing is not radical, it’s not taking away anyone’s gun rights,” Obama said. 

Source: Katie Pavlich Townhall, Obama at White House Press briefing March 28, 2013

What he means here is that, according to him and his Marxist friends it is not a radical plan but he thinks that only law-abiding citizens, those who have been determined by the Democratic Socialists of America government to be "law-abiding" i.e. not on the Homeland Security list of domestic terrorists, have a right to own some kinds of guns, but only those kinds approved by the government, after they have received a thorough background check to include psychological testing, an extensive training course and have registered their guns with the Federal government (so they may be confiscated whenever necessary) and have stored their guns in an approved facility which is not necessarily the owner's home but must be open to law enforcement inspection. And that about sums up Barack Hussein Obama's entire long term goal for Gun Control. 

But what has Barack Hussein Obama said about guns over the years? When he first began his career in politics he joined the Socialist New Party in Chicago which aided his first election to the Illinois legislature. In the absence of scrutiny from the national media, Obama's views were far more direct and radical then they are today. 

"I don't believe that people should be able to own guns."

Barak Obama, as quoted to John R. Lott, Jr., PhD, while both were working at the University of Chicago Law School in 1996. From the book "Debacle", by Grover G. Norquist and John R Lott, Jr., John Wiley & Sons, Inc.: Publisher

Principles that Obama supports on gun issues

• Ban the sale or transfer of all forms of semi-automatic weapons.
• Increase state restrictions on the purchase and possession of firearms.
• Require manufacturers to provide child-safety locks with firearms.

 “Obama is proposing to make it a felony for a gun owner whose firearm was stolen from his residence which causes harm to another person if that weapon was not securely stored in that home.

He’s proposing restricting gun purchases to one weapon a month and banning the sale of firearms at gun shows except for “antique” weapons. Obama is also proposing increasing the licensing fee to obtain a federal firearms license.

He’s proposing that all federally licensed gun dealers sell firearms in a storefront and not from their homes while banning their business from being within five miles of a school or a park. He’s also banning the sale of ‘junk” handguns like the popular Saturday Night Specials.”

"We're eliminating 17 specific assault weapons. There is no reason why anybody should need an assault weapon to protect themselves or their family. We're limiting handgun sales to one a month. We're calling for handgun registration. It's very hard right now to track whether or not a felon has turned in his weapons or if he has a FOID card because we don't know how many weapons he has purchased."

"I know that the NRA believes people should be unimpeded and unregulated on gun ownership. I disagree. I do not object to the lawful use and ownership of firearms, but I do think it is entirely appropriate for the state to monitor it. Too many of these guns end up in the hands of criminals even though they were originally purchased by people who did not have a felony. I'll continue to be in favor of handgun law registration requirements and licensing requirements for training."

And a lot of law-abiding citizens use it for hunting, for sportsmanship, and for protecting their families. We also have a violence on the streets that is the result of illegal handgun usage. And so I think there is nothing wrong with a community saying we are going to take those illegal handguns off the streets. And cracking down on the various loopholes that exist in terms of background checks for children, the mentally ill. We can have reasonable, thoughtful gun control measure that I think respect the Second Amendment and people’s traditions."

Q: Is the D.C. law prohibiting ownership of handguns consistent with an individual’s right to bear arms?

A: "As a general principle, I believe that the Constitution confers an individual right to bear arms. But just because you have an individual right does not mean that the state or local government can’t constrain the exercise of that right, in the same way that we have a right to private property but local governments can establish zoning ordinances that determine how you can use it."

Q: But do you still favor the registration & licensing of guns?

A: "I think we can provide common-sense approaches to the issue of illegal guns that are ending up on the streets. We can make sure that criminals don’t have guns in their hands. We can make certain that those who are mentally deranged are not getting a hold of handguns. We can trace guns that have been used in crimes to unscrupulous gun dealers that may be selling to straw purchasers and dumping them on the streets."

Look, like the majority of Americans, I believe that the Second Amendment guarantees an individual right to bear arms.  This country has a strong tradition of gun ownership that’s been handed down from generation to generation.  Obviously across the country there are regional differences.  There are differences between how people feel in urban areas and rural areas.  And the fact is the vast majority of gun owners in America are responsible -- they buy their guns legally and they use them safely, whether for hunting or sport shooting, collection or protection.

The plain truth of the matter is - Obama LIES. Obama has always LIED. Obama has been waiting patiently for some psycho to commit a tragedy such as the one at the Sandy Hook Elementary School so that he can make an unending, non-stop campaign to pass Gun Control legislation.

And Obama has the entire resources of the most powerful country in the world to use to get what he wants. All of those resources that he hasn't set aside for his monthly vacations.

  

To Protect and to Serve: Former police officer convicted of shooting death becomes Police Chief.

This story came from The Liberty Crier, reposted from KFSM-TV CHANNEL 5 News  in  Fort Smith, Arkansas.

Officer Convicted In Shooting Death Becomes Police Chief

March 28, 2013

A former Bella Vista police officer who served jail time after shooting a suspect to death was sworn in as a police chief Monday night. 

When Coleman Brackney took over as Sulphur Springs’ chief, it was the first time Coleman put on a police uniform since he was fired from the Bella Vista Police Department in 2010. Coleman was convicted that year of negligent homicide and served about one month in jail.

A district court ruled that Brackney was to blame for the shooting death of James Ahern following a high-speed pursuit in January 2010. His negligent homicide conviction was a misdemeanor, so Brackney was spared prison time.

“I told the guys the day I left I would be back, and I told them it may take me a while because it was going to be a long fight,” Brackney told 5NEWS on Tuesday. “But I’m back.”

Ahern’s family was awarded $20,000 after suing Brackney. His charge of negligent homicide was expunged, and a state board ruled Brackney could again serve as a police officer in Arkansas.

Brackney said his passion is law enforcement, so he always knew he would be back in uniform some day.

“Everybody can judge everybody else. Until you have actually rode with a police officer or have a family member or friend that is a police officer, you don’t really know what that job entails,” Brackney said.

Officer Convicted In Shooting Death Becomes Police Chief [continued]

"To Protect and to Serve" use to be the motto of every police department. Something has changed in the past few decades. Something very evil and very bad. Now we see many police officers carrying out their duties in an extremely hostile and violent manner, almost as if the authority to carry a gun and a badge was too much for them. To be honest, the majority of police officers are decent people who deserve every praise for their hard work but like the saying goes, "a few rotten apples can spoil the whole barrel." And then there is "the thin blue line" mentality where virtually no cop will say anything bad about another cop. The problem isn't so much the few officers who are bad but the police brass who justify and excuse their actions because "they were following procedure" and even in the extreme cases where a cop gets fired for bad behavior, it is the Arbitration Board's who allow them back on the force. Headlines across the nation tell about the extreme examples of police brutality. Pregnant women being dragged out of their cars and Tased. Six cops in Cincinnati surround a mental patient who was holding a brick and they all shot him to death  "in self-defense". Five cops working an undercover drug operation on Long Island shoot 54 bullets into a limo at a wedding rehearsal and kill an unarmed man they only suspected of criminal activity. A retired cop riding a bicycle shoots and kills a small dog with his .357 magnum that ran up and barked at him. Cops putting children in handcuffs. 

Then we read about the no-knock home invasions where entire families are threatened with SWAT teams pointing guns in their faces. terrorizing the children, handcuffing them and shooting their dogs - (Prince George's County, Maryland) all because of a mis-delivered box of marijuana the family had nothing to do with. And the county prosecutor who initially dismissed the complaints against the cops because "they followed procedure." And that was at the Mayor's home.

Berwyn Heights Mayor Cheye Calvo's lawsuit against Prince Georges County, Maryland over a 2008 SWAT raid in which his two dogs were shot dead and he was held at gunpoint is over. Calvo told the Washington Post Monday that a settlement had been reached, but declined to comment on the settlement amount or other details, which are still being worked out.

Calvo's home was raided in July 2008 by Prince Georges Sheriff's SWAT officers who were assisting county police narcotics investigators. Police had been tipped that a package being shipped to Calvo's address contained marijuana. They intercepted the package, delivered it to Calvo's porch, then broke down the door after Calvo, returning from walking his dogs, picked up the package and took it inside.

SWAT officers shot and killed Calvo's two dogs and kept the mayor handcuffed and kneeling on the ground. But it turned out that Calvo had nothing to do with the marijuana, which was being shipped to the addresses of unwitting people to be picked up off their porches by pot dealers before they got home.

We are living in an age where people fear the government and fear the police all because of the increased power in warrant-less police raids, Para-Military SWAT Teams, the power granted to government to arrest and detain without trial or legal counsel requested by Barack Hussein Obama in the National Defense Authorization Act, the Patriot Act and our slowly disappearing Bill of Rights. It takes a certain kind of brutality to work in a concentration camp, a place which our own government now classifies as Internment Centers.  See the job description from the U.S. Army recruitment bulletin below, and, yes, these are located on U.S. soil:

Internment/Resettlement (I/R) Specialists in the Army are primarily responsible for day-to-day operations in a military confinement/correctional facility or detention/internment facility. I/R Specialists provide rehabilitative, health, welfare, and security to U.S. military prisoners within a confinement or correctional facility; conduct inspections; prepare written reports; and coordinate activities of prisoners/internees and staff personnel.

The permissiveness we see in some of our law enforcement could be viewed as testing stage and those who pass it will become the Gestapo of our future. Now we see Democrats staking their political futures on disarming America with gun control, gun registration leading to confiscation. When people fear the government, we have tyranny. When government fears the people, we have liberty.

My name is Nelson Abdullah and I am Oldironsides.

Postscript: There is a saying that goes: Any woman who chooses to act like a lady deserves to be treated like a lady. Perhaps we need to apply this to our local officers of the law. Any police officer who chooses to act like the person he was when he took the oath to uphold the law, protect and serve the public and defend the Constitution deserves to be treated with dignity and respect.

The American Dream ended (on November 6th) in Ohio. The second term of Barack Obama will be the final nail in the coffin for the legacy of the white Christian males who discovered, explored, pioneered, settled and developed the greatest Republic in the history of mankind.

A coalition of Blacks, Latinos, Feminists, Gays, Government Workers, Union Members, Environmental Extremists, The Media, Hollywood, uninformed young people, the "forever needy," the chronically unemployed, illegal aliens and other "fellow travelers" have ended Norman Rockwell's America.

The Cocker Spaniel is off the front porch...the Pit Bull is in the back yard.

The American Constitution has been replaced with Saul Alinsky's "Rules for Radicals" and Chicago shyster, David Axelrod, along with international Socialist George Soros will be pulling the strings on their beige puppet to bring us Act 2 of the New World Order.

Our side ran two candidates who couldn't even win their own home states, and the circus fattster Chris Christie helped Obama over the top with a glowing "post Sandy" tribute that elevated the "Commander-in-Chief" to Mother Teresa status.

People like me are completely politically irrelevant, and I will never again comment on or concern myself with the aforementioned coalition which has surrendered our culture, our heritage and our traditions without a shot being fired.

You will never again out vote these people. It will take individual acts of defiance and massive displays of civil disobedience to get back the rights we have allowed them to take away. It will take Zealots, not moderates--not reach-across-the-aisle RINOs to right this ship and restore our beloved country to its former status.

Those who come after us will have to risk their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor to bring back the Republic that this generation has timidly frittered away due to "white guilt" and political correctness.....

Local news media gives another PR pitch for radical Islam.

When it comes to Muslims and Islam the Cincinnati Enquirer seems to display an overly friendly relationship with them that borders on covering up any and all disparaging news that would tarnish their image and almost never publishes any disagreeable comment. The Enquirer has published numerous columns lauding the good works of various local Muslims, as if they were just like everyone else, and one Muslim in particular, Karen Dabdoub, Executive Director at Council on American-Islamic Relations in Cincinnati, has written almost as many pieces under her own name whitewashing the criminal aspects of her group. Wikipedia notes that "CAIR officials are often interviewed by major national, local, and international media on news programs involving Muslims in America. In five years CAIR officials were cited over 11,000 times by media, including CNN, MSNBC, BBC, ABC, Fox, NBC, CBS, Washington Post, USA Today, and the New York Times. Editorials written by CAIR officials are published nationwide." Since the Associated Press has made its Style Book religious neutral when writing about Muslim acts of terrorism, substituting phrases like "Detroit man arrested for bomb plot" and failing to identify the man as a Muslim, national news no longer informs the public about the war being waged against America. But what excuses do the local news media have when the same thing happens in their backyard?

From the standpoint of public relations the political goals of Islam couldn't enjoy a better arraignment. One detail about CAIR always seems to get omitted from the stories in the Enquirer: the little fact that the U.S. Dept. of Justice labeled the organization an un-indicted co-conspirator in the Holy Land Foundation trial in Dallas, Texas in 2008 that sent a number of participants to prison for funneling charity donations to support the terrorist group Hamas. On November 24, 2008, the government obtained guilty verdicts against the Holy Land Foundation and five individual defendants. The jury found the Holy Land Foundation guilty on all 108 charges. The 2008 trial of the charity leaders was dubbed the "largest terrorism financing prosecution in American history." In 2009, the founders of the organization were given life sentences for "funneling $12 million to Hamas." Among those convicted was Ghassan Elashi, a member of the founding Board of Directors of the Texas branch of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), who was sentenced to 65 years. Yet whenever CAIR is mentioned it is with the same esteem as the Boy Scouts. Were they writing about someone connected to the Mafia you can be sure they would make that understood.

Ignoring the facts doesn't make them go away

One knowledgeable critic of Islam said that there is no such thing as a moderate Muslim. Islam is Islam and there is only one variation, one flavor as he put it, and the followers cannot pick and choose what they wish to believe. The laws of Islam are contained in the Sharia, a barbaric law dating back to the 7th Century, which every Muslim is required to follow. The punishment for not doing so is extremely harsh and often bloody. The Islamic laws that rule in Saudi Arabia and in Iran are the same that apply to Muslims in America. One part of the culture of Islam is based upon family honor upholding traditional Islamic rules and more than a few Muslims in America have committed "Honor Killings" against their own children and family members when they have tried to break away from that culture. Under Islamic Sharia law women are required to cover their exposed skin in public so that Muslim men will not become seduced by their femininity and rape them. But Islamic Sharia law dictates that a woman who has been raped must be tried for adultery and when convicted, will be stoned to death. 

The most common crime committed under Sharia Law is Blasphemy which can be interpreted as almost anything that causes embarrassment to any Muslim or to Islam. Blasphemy is often used for revenge to get back at someone because even when proven false the accused is often punished. A non-Muslim who touches a Qur'an is guilty of Blasphemy and who can prove it didn't happen. According to Pakistani religious scholar, Javed Ahmed Ghamidi, nothing in Islam supports Blasphemy law. Rather, Muslim jurists made the offense part of Sharia; the penalties for blasphemy can include fines, imprisonment, flogging, amputation, hanging, or beheading. A Muslim who converts to another religion is guilty of a crime called Apostasy and becomes an Apostate, and this also is punishable by death. The case of a local girl, Rifqa Bary, from Hilliard, Ohio a few years ago made headlines when she ran away from home after becoming a Christian because her father threatened to kill her in an Honor Killing. 

There are Muslims in America who propose to incorporate Islamic Sharia law into our own laws and there have been Muslim judges in some of our courts who have applied those laws to trials before them. Judges who should never have been appointed or elected to the bench because in following their religion they put Sharia law above our civil law. Islamic Sharia law has been proven to be incompatible with a Constitutional Republic. Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said on 8-02-2010 that music is "not compatible" with the values of the Islamic republic, and should not be practiced or taught in the country. And neither is free speech or freedom of religion. And in Saudi Arabia a Christian will be arrested for carrying a Bible or Rosary Beads.

Dhimmitude: How the press allows itself to be used to promote Islam  

Case in point: A glowing tribute in the Enquirer to a local Muslim doctor doing charity work.

Wikipedia describes the word Dhimmitude as situations where non-Muslims in the West are championing Islamic causes above others. To understand my point of view you should know that I am not a Muslim and never was but I am a strong critic of their religion. I am a Baptized Roman Catholic and because of personal experiences with my father's Muslim family I became interested in learning about Islam long before the attacks on 9-11-2001. After the attacks I looked deeper into the motivating factors behind it and so many other Islamic inspired attacks since. Attacks, such as the slaughter at Ft. Hood, Texas by self-professed Soldier of Allah, Army Major Nidal Malik Hasan, that the media refuses to attribute to Islam. What I found out is totally at odds with the politically correct, whitewashed image of this group portrayed in the Cincinnati Enquirer and in our national media. Taken at face value the Enquirer article on this doctor portrays a generous, dedicated and charitable medical professional, bringing needed help to impoverished people. (I'm not printing her name because it could put her in danger. This blog is read in many Muslim countries.) While my personal knowledge of Islam tells me this woman, if she is telling the truth about reading the Bible and singing Christian songs along with Christian missionaries, is very much at odds with the true teachings of her religion. In fact it could border on Blasphemy or Apostasy. If she has used this newspaper to promote Islamic propaganda then she has done nothing but practice Taqiyya – an instruction for Muslims to lie or deceive non-Muslims if it helps Islam. That the editors of The Cincinnati Enquirer would be a willing part in this propaganda makes you a Dhimmi and you are guilty of Dhimmitude.

True believers of Islam are not allowed to make friends with or associate with non-Muslims unless they do so to further the cause of Islam. See this Islamic web site for the following quotes from the Qur'an: http://www.altafsir.com/ViewTranslations.asp?Display=yes&SoraNo=4&Ayah=144&toAyah=144&Language=2&LanguageID=2&TranslationBook=3

The Qur'an says in sura 4:144
" O ye who believe! Choose not disbelievers for (your) friends in place of believers. Would ye give Allah a clear warrant against you ?"

This verse clearly states that a Muslim can only befriend a Muslim. Mohammed in order to ensure that his followers will not befriend and get influenced by people of other religions, revealed this verse. This verse illustrates that if a Muslim befriends a Non-Muslim than the wrath of Allah will be on him. Therefore in Islam, people of other religions should be treated with contempt, disrespect and cruelty.

Qur'an 5:51
" O ye who believe! Take not the Jews and the Christians for friends. They are friends one to another. He among you who taketh them for friends is (one) of them. Lo! Allah guideth not wrongdoing folk."

In this verse Prophet Mohammed is clearly instructing his followers never to befriend a Christian or a Jew. Because if they take a Christian or a Jew as a friend, they will commit a wrong deed and Allah's wrath will be on them.

If you are curious about confirming my opinions then please check this scholarly Islamic web site on how devout Muslims should treat Christians at Christmas time. http://www.islamweb.net/emainpage/index.php?page=articles&id=155796

Because of my last name, I receive a lot of mail from Muslim groups who do mass mailings to anyone with an Arab sounding name. One piece of mail from the Hidaya Foundation to solicit a donation to this Muslim charity included a detailed brochure about Zakat, the Islamic practice of charity giving. It is interesting to note, they explained in the brochure, that according to the Qur'an "Zakat is only given by Muslims to Muslims". This is the opposite of many real Christian charities that distribute aid to the Middle East and Africa and around the world to people of all faiths. Here is a picture of that instruction from their brochure. If this Muslim charity, the Hidaya Foundation, acknowledges that according to the Qur'an Muslim's charitable contributions should only go to other Muslims than how can a Muslim doctor work side by side with Christians doing charitable work and not be violating their holiest book? Because if they take a Christian or a Jew as a friend, they will commit a wrong deed and Allah's wrath will be on them.

The "Satanic Verses" in the book of Hate

Islam is based upon the writings contained in the Qur'an and the Hadiths, comprised of commands from their Prophet Mohammad and stories about his life style. It covers every detail of a Muslim life including hygiene, using the toilet, and having sex with young girls as soon as they have menstruated. Mohammad was a warrior so most of his orders to his followers were condemnations against his enemies. Thus, the greater bulk of the Qur'an, more than 60%, is filled with hate against Christians and Jews. If Islam were not regarded as a religion then based upon the laws in most civilized countries the Qur'an would be considered hate literature. The only thing necessary to turn a law-abiding devout Muslim into a radical terrorist is for someone to remind them that their Prophet commanded them to be one and that is exactly what takes place in many of the mosques throughout America. The FBI has determined that a majority of mosques are recruitment and training grounds for terrorism. One reason for this is that almost half of the mosques in America were built with financing from the Saudi Arabian government and as a condition of receiving that financial support, these mosques are required to distribute literature teaching the Wahabbi version of Islam, the most radical anti-western religious sect that is the law of the Saudi government. A study conducted by the NGO Freedom House found Wahhabi publications in mosques in the United States. These publications included statements that Muslims should not only "always oppose" infidels "in every way", but "hate them for their religion … for Allah's sake", that democracy "is responsible for all the horrible wars of the 20th century", and that Shia and certain Sunni Muslims were infidels. Note the phrase, "for Allah's sake". The very logic used to convince a devout Muslim to oppose all man-made governments. And as a reminder, 15 of the 19 Muslim terrorists who hijacked those four airliners on 9-11-2001 were from Saudi Arabia.

Criticism of Islam consists of even just quoting passages from the Qur'an by a non-Muslim and that is why many Muslims in America are calling for Islamic Blasphemy laws to be put on our law books. Devout Muslims don't believe in Freedom of Speech except when they lie about themselves. Devout Muslims do not believe in any man-made governments such as ours and only recognize governments ruled by Allah's laws. This also means that every Muslim that emigrated to America and took the oath to be a citizen has committed perjury because the lied when they swore to uphold our Constitution.

Here is another story that you didn't find in the Cincinnati Enquirer because it might place their friends at CAIR in an embarrassing situation. You can rest assured that whenever a Muslim does a good deed the Enquirer will use the words Muslim and Islam many times in the story, but whenever a Muslim does a bad thing there will be no mention of Muslim or Islam in the story - if it is printed at all.

Dallas CAIR leader proclaims:

'WE ARE ABOVE THE LAW OF THE LAND'

Muslim leader's stunning claim at Texas rally for Islam

by JOHN GRIFFING

Muslims living in America should not be bound by U.S. law, according to a leader of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, who delivered the controversial message to a crowd at a Muslim rally in Austin, Texas.

“If we are practicing Muslims, we are above the law of the land,” said Mustafa Carroll, executive director of the Dallas-Fort Worth CAIR branch.

The rally in Austin was part of a nationwide effort to hold “Muslim Capitol Day” events.

According to the event website, Muslims from around Texas went to the capitol to “promote civic and political activism throughout the wider Muslim community.”

The organizers said one major issue discussed “was the recent House and Senate bill proposals involving the implementation of ‘anti-Shariah’ legislation, where the First Amendment rights and freedoms of Muslims would ultimately be hindered.”

Critics argue Shariah prohibits other faiths from free exercise of religion when enforced, giving freedom only to Muslims.

Carroll’s statement was similar to a statement allegedly made by CAIR co-founder and former chairman Omar M. Ahmad. He was paraphrased by a reporter saying, “Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant” and the Quran “should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.”

Carroll began joking about the widespread concern about Shariah, the religious code that governs Muslim civil and political life.

“We tried to downplay Shariah, because we didn’t want to give the other side any excitement for being here,” he said.

He dismissed critics who express concern about Shariah, calling them “anti-foreign.”

“When you even say the word Shariah, people get nervous. We are not advocating for Shariah. We are not trying to make Shariah the law of the land,” he said.

Carroll claimed Muslims only want the “right to practice our faith.”

But he also said, “If you understand Shariah, the foundation of our faith … how we treat our neighbor, how we treat our parents … how we participate in society, all of that is part of Shariah.”

Carroll is on record defending Hamas, classified by the U.S. as a terrorist group.

“I think you can only blame Hamas for so long. It takes two to tango. And I think, you know, that what we’ve heard for a number of years is this terrorist, terrorist, terrorist, terrorist, Hamas, Hamas, Hamas, was not just Hamas,” he’s said.

At CAIR’s Dallas banquet in 2007, Carroll denied the Quran is the source of terrorism.

“Look at the true cause of the terrorism. It’s not somebody is reading a book, reading a Quran, and then go out and say, ‘Well, the Quran told me to blow this up. I’m gonna blow it up.’ The cause, the root cause of terrorism is oppression. The root cause of terrorism is oppression.”

Mitch McConnell-(KY) Does It Again. Once a RINO always a RINO.

Mitch McConnell-(KY) Does It Again

As you know, U.S. Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Mike Lee (R-UT) forced a vote on an amendment last week to defund Obamacare. The Democrats defeated the amendment, but all 45 Republicans voted in favor of it even though some in the party don't want to fight the issue anymore.

But the real test for Republicans came this week when the Senate held the final vote on the bill that funds Obamacare. 

As we expected, a large group of Republicans flip-flopped and helped the Democrats pass the legislation.

Here are the 20 Republicans who voted to give the Obama Administration the funding it needs to implement Obamacare. The highlighted senators are running for re-election in 2014.

Alexander (R-TN)

Barrasso (R-WY)

Blunt (R-MO)

Boozman (R-AR)

Chambliss (R-GA)

Coats (R-IN)

Cochran (R-MS)

Collins (R-ME)

Corker (R-TN)

Cornyn (R-TX)         

Hatch (R-UT)

Hoeven (R-ND)

Isakson (R-GA)

Johanns (R-NE)

McConnell (R-KY)

Murkowski (R-AK)

Sessions (R-AL)

Shelby (R-AL)

Thune (R-SD)

Wicker (R-MS)

These senators want voters to know they oppose Obamacare, but they aren't willing to do what is necessary to actually stop it. They give lip service to conservative principles, but won't make real sacrifices to deliver for the American people.

Senator Mitch McConnell's vote for the Obamacare funding bill was especially disappointing. He not only supported the Cruz-Lee amendment to defund Obamacare, he also gave a speech at CPAC last week where he stood next to thousands of pages of Obamacare regulations and vowed to fight them. If he were serious, he would have opposed the bill that funds the implementation of those very same regulations.

 Republicans like Senator McConnell won't oppose spending bills like this one because they're afraid of being blamed for a government shutdown. This fear is crippling the Republican Party. Until its leaders face the ghosts of 1995 and stand up to President Obama, there is little hope that things in Washington will change.

  

CBS-TV apologizes to American veterans for filming 'Amazing Race' near crashed B-52 in Vietnam.

 

The Wrap:

CBS, under fire from veterans for last week's episode of "The Amazing Race" that featured a segment in Vietnam filmed at the site of a crashed American B-52, opened Sunday's show with an apology.

A billboard read by the program's host Phil Keoghan apologized to veterans, especially those who served in Vietnam, for being "insensitive."

"Parts of last Sunday's episode, filmed in Vietnam, were insensitive to a group that is very important to us -- our nation's veterans." he said. "We want to apologize to veterans -- particularly those who served in Vietnam -- as well as to their families and any viewers who were offended by the broadcast. All of us here have the most profound respect for the men and women who fight for our country."

Vietnam War veteran and American Legion National Commander James E. Koutz had on Thursday sent a letter to CBS, asking that the network apologize for "its disgraceful slap-in-the face administered to American war heroes" during a prime time broadcast of the program, “The Amazing Race" on Sunday, March 17.

In a release, Koutz said, "The show is called ’The Amazing Race,' but I call it ‘The Amazing Gall.’"

"In a broadcast reminiscent of Tokyo Rose, reality game show contestants visited a ‘B-52 Memorial’ in Vietnam, which featured the wreckage of a B-52 bomber shot down during the war. What wasn’t shown were the U.S. crewmembers that were killed or the grieving American families that were left behind. The Department of Defense is encouraging Americans to honor and commemorate our Vietnam War veterans for the sacrifice that they made 50 years ago.

"We only wish that the network that once gave us Kate Smith -- famous for her rendition of ‘God Bless America’ -- would return to its great roots and not be so eager to broadcast anti-American propaganda," said Koutz.

CBS-TV's amazing race to the far left.

   

Hey, America, you asked for it. You voted for them. Now you're going to get it.

Here are some changes that will be coming soon as a result of the socialized medicine we will have thanks to Democrats Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid with ObamaCare. Many changes are the direct result of new government rules and regulations, some of which are still being written on a daily basis, but out of necessity, health care insurers are already resorting to unconventional methods to weed out potentially costly insurance claims. For instance, in past years insurers would closely scan policy applications to try and discover misleading, false or incomplete medical histories that they could use as a basis to deny coverage for a medical claim. Now, according to a story in the Wall Street Journal, health insurance companies are purchasing personal shoppers info from retail stores to look for customers who buy tobacco or even alcohol products. Your health insurer could increase your insurance premium if they knew you were a smoker or a heavy drinker and they could deny paying a medical claim if you denied that you were a smoker or an alcoholic and they found out you lied on their application forms. 

While it is somewhat cute and amusing that a retailer would suspect a female customer may be pregnant based upon the merchandise she purchased, the implications are very onerous when viewed on a larger scale. It is a real world extension of the old joke about the man who went into a large retail store to buy tampons for his wife and the observant sales clerk suggested he visit the sporting goods department for some new fishing gear because "there's nothing going on at your house this weekend". This is what retailers do with your personal information. Its called Data Mining.

Why Is Retail Giant Target Trying to Scan Your Driver’s License for This Seemingly Simple Purchase?

Mar. 19, 2013 10:44am Liz Klimas 

Target has been in the spotlight recently for its extensive data mining abilities to direct marketing to its customers, which could be exactly why the store wanted to scan his ID in the first place. An article in the New York Times by Charles Duhigg, highlighting a portion of his book “The Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and in Business,” showed how Target is able to tell if a woman is pregnant, based on its purchase-tracking capabilities, before even she knows. Duhigg wrote:

For decades, Target has collected vast amounts of data on every person who regularly walks into one of its stores. Whenever possible, Target assigns each shopper a unique code — known internally as the Guest ID number — that keeps tabs on everything they buy. “If you use a credit card or a coupon, or fill out a survey, or mail in a refund, or call the customer help line, or open an e-mail we’ve sent you or visit our Web site, we’ll record it and link it to your Guest ID,” Pole said. “We want to know everything we can.”

Top Ten ObamaCare Horror Stories the Media Are Covering Up

Because the mainstream media lobbied every bit as hard as Obama to win passage of ObamaCare, they are every bit as invested in doing whatever is necessary to see that it is perceived as a success. Unfortunately for Americans who expect truth from their media, this means the media are having to manufacture a false reality that says ObamaCare is, to steal a phrase, “doing fine.”

In order to manufacture this phony reality, the media must further sell their blackened soul by violating one of their most cherished principals: reporting on how government policy hits America’s weakest the hardest. It’s just a fact that the worst fallout of ObamaCare is already landing hard on the working class, who are losing work hours, jobs, and their insurance. 

Usually when a government policy hits the working class, the media will fall all over themselves to “tell their personal stories.” But not these people. The media perceives these poor souls as sacrifices to a bigger cause known as The State.

Group Appointments With Doctors: When Three Isn't A Crowd

More doctors are holding appointments with multiple patients, a trend some say may help ease a forecasted shortage of physicians.

By Michelle Andrews, Kaiser Health News

TUESDAY, March 19, 2013 (Kaiser Health News) — When visiting the doctor, there may be strength in numbers.

In recent years, a growing number of doctors have begun holding group appointments — seeing up to a dozen patients with similar medical concerns all at once. Advocates of the approach say such visits allow doctors to treat more patients, spend more time with them (even if not one-on-one), increase appointment availability and improve health outcomes.

Some see group appointments as a way to ease looming physician shortages. According to a study published in December, meeting the country's health-care needs will require nearly 52,000 additional primary-care physicians by 2025. More than 8,000 of that total will be needed for the more than 27 million people newly insured under the Affordable Care Act.

ObamaCare Turns Three: 10 Disturbing Facts Americans Have Learned

By JOHN MERLINE, INVESTOR'S BUSINESS DAILY

Posted 03/21/2013 07:00 PM ET 

Just over three years ago, then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi famously quipped about ObamaCare that "we have to pass the bill so you can find out what is in it." 

But only now, as ObamaCare's third anniversary approaches — President Obama signed it into law on March 23, 2010 — is the country starting to find out what the sweeping health care overhaul will actually do.

ObamaCare backers typically tout popular features that went into effect almost immediately. The law expanded Medicare's drug coverage, for example, and let children stay on their parents' plans until they turned 26.

But the bulk of ObamaCare doesn't take effect until next year. That's when the so-called insurance exchanges are supposed to be up and running, when the mandate on individuals and businesses kicks in, and when the avalanche of regulations on the insurance industry hits.
As this start date draws near, evidence is piling up that ObamaCare will:

• Boost insurance costs.
• Push millions off employer coverage.
• Cause premiums to skyrocket.
• Cost people their jobs.
• Tax the middle class.
• Add to the deficit.
• Cost more than promised.
• Be a bureaucratic nightmare.
• Exacerbate doctor shortages.
• Leave millions uninsured.
