D-Day 65 Years Ago Today

On this day 65 years ago today, President Roosevelt delivered this speech broadcast on every radio station across America:

Mulsim Fanatic Crashes Memorial for Slain US Soldier in Little Rock

The brazenness is hard to fathom. A radical Muslim ambushes US troops in the heart of the Untied States, and when a memorial is conducted for the dead US soldier, another radical Muslim, in the heart of the United States feels comfortable enough to crash the memorial. WOW! This might be a case of taking tolerance to an extreme. Tolerance of intolerance is no virtue.

Hillary Clinton: Israel Is Lying

Hillary says the Bush administration never agreed to Israel expanding West Bank communities; insists there is no record of 'any informal or oral agreement' to that effect. The Israelis say the US position was laid out in a 2004 letter from Bush to then Israeli premier Ariel Sharon. Clinton rejected that claim, saying any such US stance was informal and "did not become part of the official position of the United States government." OK now we are back to Clinton word-parsing time.

Informal? Really? Usually "informal" agreements by the President of the United States are not put down in writing in a letter and sent to a foreign leader. Does it say "informal" on the letter?

I say that Israel should produce the letter, splash it all over the Internet, and let people make their own judgments about who is lying. For a person with the last name of 'Clinton', it may not be a good idea to be accusing others of lying.

So the US wants Israel to "abide by agreements" while Hillary is trying to parse her way out of a US agreement when it suits her ideologically.

Hmmmm

The walking contradiction

One day he is sucking up to those who would destroy Israel in a heartbeat, the next day he his playing to the civilized world (as in the video below). That is what happens when a politician has no core values and tries to be all thing to all people. Here is the good Obama on display in Germany after we saw the bad Obama yesterday:

A usual, Ramirez nails it:

The only silver lining for Israelis from the president’s speech in Cairo and his general positions on the Middle East is that Obama has overplayed his hand. Far from bending to his will, a large majority of Israelis perceives Obama as a hostile force and has rallied in support of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu against the administration. This public support gives Netanyahu the maneuver room he needs to take the actions that Israel needs to take to defend against the prospect of a nuclear armed Iran and to assert its national rights and to defend itself against Palestinian terrorists and other Arab and non-Arab anti-Semites who wish it ill.

Senator Jim Inhofe: "I'm Not Sure Who's Side He's [Obama] is on"

Sen. Jim Inhofe said today that President Barack Obama's speech in Cairo was "un-American" because he referred to the war in Iraq as "a war of choice" and didn't criticize Iran for developing a nuclear program.

Inhofe, R-Tulsa, also criticized the president for suggesting that torture was conducted at the military prison in Guantanamo, saying, "There has never been a documented case of torture at Guantanamo."

"I just don't know whose side he's on," Inhofe said of the president.

Obama's Islam Speech: Bad, But It Could Have Been Worse

Hey, he only compared Israel to South African apartheid and American slavery, the word "terrorism" or "Hezbollah", or "Hamas" were not mentioned even once, he fully supported Iran's "peaceful" nuclear program, but it could have been worse.

As the endless Obama-Islam suck-up tour continues, let us not dwell on the negative too much. There is so much of it when it comes to Obama's approach to the Middle East, his understating (or lack of understanding), and his complete ignorance of human history is stunning. Schlussel point that out accurately in her criticism. I prefer to dwell on the positive in this case since my original expectations were so low. So here are the few quotes from his speech that deserve praise:

Finally, the Arab States must recognize that the Arab Peace Initiative was an important beginning, but not the end of their responsibilities. The Arab-Israeli conflict should no longer be used to distract the people of Arab nations from other problems. Instead, it must be a cause for action to help the Palestinian people develop the institutions that will sustain their state; to recognize Israel’s legitimacy; and to choose progress over a self-defeating focus on the past.
America’s strong bonds with Israel are well known. This bond is unbreakable. It is based upon cultural and historical ties, and the recognition that the aspiration for a Jewish homeland is rooted in a tragic history that cannot be denied.
Around the world, the Jewish people were persecuted for centuries, and anti-Semitism, in Europe culminated in an unprecedented Holocaust. Tomorrow, I will visit Buchenwald, which was part of a network of camps where Jews were enslaved, tortured, shot and gassed to death by the Third Reich. Six million Jews were killed – more than the entire Jewish population of Israel today. Denying that fact is baseless, ignorant, and hateful. Threatening Israel with destruction – or repeating vile stereotypes about Jews – is deeply wrong, and only serves to evoke in the minds of Israelis this most painful of memories while preventing the peace that the people of this region deserve.
That's about it. This is what I hang my hat on while looking for a positive in a 6,000 word ocean of nonsense and misrepresentations. But hey, I'll take what I can get.

Strange: Israel is Rated 4th "Least Peaceful" Place on Earth, But Has a Higher Life Expectancy Then the "Most Peaceful" Place on Earth

You know something is screwy when a "peace" group rates the most "peaceful" places on earth as having a lower life expectancy rate than the so called fourth least peaceful place on earth.

New Zealand was rated the most peaceful place on earth, but according to the United Nations, people on average in New Zealand live a half a year less than people in Israel. In fact, Israel beats out the United States, Norway, Canada, the UK, Germany, Finland and most other Western countries when it comes to life expectancy according to the UN. The peace group that came up with this "study" sandwiched Israel between Sudan (Life expectancy of 58.6) and Somalia (Life expectancy of 48.2 years). For the record, Israel's life expectancy is 80.7, the eighth highest on earth! What would you choose, "peace" or life? And oh, by the way, New Zealand also has a much higher Suicide rate than Israel. More than twice as high in fact! All that "peace" over there is causing people to kill themselves. No kidding. It's death by boredom. Perhaps living in a distant, irrelevant corner of the globe in "peace" is not a healthy thing?

It's Springtime For Obama in the Muslim World

Bringing hope to radical Muslims everywhere

Obama: The United States is One of The Largest Muslim Countries in the World

In the interview, the President says that as Americans "we need to educate ourselves about Islam" and that the United States, with all its Muslims is actually "one of the largest Muslim countries in the world." It seems that it is the President who needs to educate himself.

Islamist Radical Thug Odinga, Who Is Also Obama's Cousin, Embraces Ahamedinejad

Is there a single person out there who believes that Kenyan Prime Minister Odinga went to Iran without the blessing of his cousin Obama? Above is the famous image of Obama campaigning for his cousin Odinga in Kenya.
On May 30th, Odinga traveled to Iran to establish a stronger alliance with that radical country. Coincidence? It's truly amazing how the MSM miss these stories time and again. But they did get the Obama date story down, so that's a plus.

Obama Adminstration: Thugs at Polling Stations are A-OK

Obama Justice Department political appointees overruled career lawyers and ended a civil complaint against three members of the New Black Panther Party for wielding nightsticks and intimidating voters at a Philadelphia polling place last Election Day. Apparently, the Obama administration has no problem with its supporters wielding weapons at polling places like in Zimbabwe. Welcome to Obama's America. You make the call:

David Aaron Miller: Israel is a Banana Republic. Obama "May" Want 'Regime Change'

David Aaron Miller, one of the famous "Jew Boys" [US Jewish diplomats who work hard to sell Israel down the drain for "peace", but really in the name of their own careers]. Made the below extraordinary statement in Foreign Policy Magazine:

"What I'm beginning to see is that the Obama administration may be less concerned with actually getting to negotiations and an agreement and more interested in setting new rules and rearranging the furniture. They may have concluded that they can't get to a real two state solution with this prime minister [Netanyahu]. Maybe they want a new one? And the best way to raise the odds of that is to demonstrate that he can't manage Israel's most important relationship: with the U.S."

In other words, Israel is a banana republic whose democratically elected leadership "may" be changed by the US if they are not compatible with the current US administration. WOW! A direct challenge to Israeli sovereignty and democracy. And I love the way he frames his analysis in terms of questions and with words like "may". Kind of like: Some may wonder how safe David Aaron Miller may feel walking around the streets of Israel?

Obama's Great Uncle is Great Indeed

SPIEGEL: Mr. Payne, early in June your great-nephew, President Barack Obama, will visit the former concentration camp Buchenwald, which you helped liberate at the end of the war. Will he be travelling in your footsteps?

Charles Payne: I don't buy that. I was quite surprised when the whole thing came up and Barack talked about my war experiences in Nazi Germany. We had never talked about that before. This is a trip that he chose, not because of me I'm sure, but for political reasons.

In a fascinating interview in the German magazine Spiegel, Obama's Great Uncle Charles Payne speaks clearly. This is a man from a generation that cannot be bothered with the spin and BS that Politicians like Obama spew. He is a Democrat. He supports his family and wishes his nephew nothing but success. But he will not be part of any BS propaganda campaign. I instinctively like this man. I can sense an honest man when he speaks, and this is an honest man. Notice how he refuses to exaggerate or spin his contributions. The facts speak loudly enough. I hope that the President asks him to join him on that trip. Perhaps the president will actually learn something other than public relations.

Abbas After White House Meeting: Obama Will Work to Unseat Netanyahu

Well it's nice to know how the Palestinian Authority President perceived his meeting with President Barack Hussein Obama. Of course Abbas is correct and of course, Netanyahu knows it. Barack Hussein Obama is not working to depose Kim Jung Ill, Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega, Mahmoud Ahamedinejad, etc... to him, the problem is the Jews. He learned it by sitting twenty years listening to his "spiritual mentor" Reverend Wright. And he learned it from the army of anti-Semites that he has associated himself with for decades. No surprise there. Eventually, people slow on the uptake will catch on.

Car Dealers that Contributed to the GOP are Closed. Dealers Who Contributed to Obama Will disproportionately Remain Open

Well, here's another reason not to buy a crappy US Goverment-made car, aside from union corruption and the fact the most foreign cars are manufactured in the US anyway. Gateway Pundit has blown the lid off the political nature of the car dealership closures:

Dealers who contributed to the GOP are being shut down faster than you can say "Watergate". A small example:

• Vernon G. Buchanan: $147,450 to GOP candidates and organizations
• Wallace D. Alley and Family: $4,500 to GOP.
• Robert Archer: $4,600 to GOP and conservative causes.
• Homer S. Higginbotham and Family: $2950 to GOP.
• James Auffenberg and Family: $28,000 to GOP; $6,000 to one Democrat candidate.
• Michael Maroone and Family: $60,000 to GOP; $8,500 to two Democrat candidates.
• Jerome Fader: $6,500 to Democrats; $2,500 to Independent Joe Lieberman.
• Stephen Fay and Family: $13,500 to GOP.
• William Numrich: $20,000 to GOP.
• Robert Carver: $10,000 to Democrats including $1,950 to Hillary Clinton, nothing to Barack Obama.
• Robert and Linda Rohrman: $24,000 to GOP.
• Frank Boucher, Jr. and Family: $18,000 to GOP, $1,000 to one Democrat candidate.
• Scott Bossier: $4,300 to GOP.
• Todd Reardon: $17,000 to GOP; $2,000 to one Democrat candidate.
• Russ Darrow and Family: $78,000 to GOP.
• Bradford Deery and Family: $24,700 to GOP.
• Charles Gabus and Family: $30,000 to GOP.
• Brian Smith: $15,500 to GOP.
• Michael Schlossman: $14,000 to GOP; $14,000 to three Democrats ($12,500 to Sen. Russ Feingold).
• Don Hill: $11,000 to GOP; $12,800 to conservative incumbent Rep. Heath Shuler.
• Don Miller: $2,000 to GOP; $1,000 to Feingold.
• Eddie Cordes: $2,150 to GOP.
• Robert Edwards: $1,100 to GOP.
• James Crowley: $19,100 to GOP.
• Stanley Graff: $2,200 to John Edwards (2008 Presidential Run); $500 to GOP.
• John Stewart: $10,500 to GOP.
• John Fitzgerald and Family: $4,600 to John McCain (2008); $2,000 to Hillary Clinton (2008); nothing to Barack Obama.
• William Churchill and Family: $3,500 to GOP.
• Thomas Ganley: $9.450 to GOP.
• Gary Miller: $20,000 to GOP.
• Kevin and Gene Beltz: $18,500 to GOP.
• Arthur Grayson: $14,000 to GOP.
• Eric Grubbs and Family: $26,000 to GOP.
• Michael Leep and Family: $19,500 to GOP; $4,800 to three Democrats including Sen. Evan Bayh.
• Harry Green, Jr.: $10,000 to GOP.
• Ronald Hoover: $5,250 to GOP.
• Ray Huffines and Family: $18,500 to GOP.
• John O. Stevenson: $1,500 to GOP.• James Marsh: $8,200 to GOP.
• Max Pearson and Family: $112,000 to GOP.

On the otherhand, if you are plugged in with the Obama administration, you need not worry. The poster child for pay to play is RLJ-McLarty-Landers dealerships, owned by three men: One was the former Chief of Staff for President Clinton, Mac McLarty. One is the founder of Black Entertainment Television and a huge Obama supporter. All 6 of their Chrysler dealerships will remain open. It's amazing how that works.

Recommendation? Stay the hell away from government owned car manufacturers and their dealerships. and especially stay away from RLJ-McLarty-Landers dealerships.

Obama Appoints a Stone Cold Racist to US Supreme Court

UPDATE: Obama administration warns people to "be exceeding careful" about how you criticize his supreme court nominee.

To take a page from Jenine Garafalo, President Obama appointed a 'stone cold' racist and intellectual lightweight to the US Supreme Court this morning. Hell, she's even a mamber of an organization called "The Race". Judge Sonia Sotomayor openly supports racial preferences and states that the Court is "where policy is made." Forget elected representatives, democracy and all that nonsense, policy in her mind is set by unelected, appointed judges.

In 2001 she openly stated that the ethnicity and sex of a judge “may and will make a difference in our judging.” Continuing on a rampage, she then went on to say that “I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male.” Judge Sotomayor then questioned whether achieving impartiality “is possible in all, or even, in most, cases.” She added, “And I wonder whether by ignoring our differences as women or men of color we do a disservice both to the law and society.” In other words, let's remove the blindfold from Lady Justice and tip that scale she is holding. But it gets worse: “to judge is an exercise of power” and that “there is no objective stance but only a series of perspectives.” Again, NO OBJECTIVE STANCE. That was certainly the case when she threw out a serious discrimination case with a single sentence. Certainly she is correct that "to judge is to exercise power," and placing unrestrained power in the hands of a self-described nonobjective person, with clear raciest tendencies may be what the Reverend Wright and Obama would approve of but most Americans would not.

Netanyahu: Only Israel Will Remove the Iranian Nuclear Threat. Obama Will Not.

Speaking before Likud party loyalists:

"Israel is not like other countries... We are faced with security challenges that no other country faces, and our need to provide a response to these is critical, and we are answering the call.... These are not regular times. The danger is hurtling toward us. The real danger is underestimating the threat... My job is first and foremost to ensure the future of the state of Israel ... the leadership's job is to eliminate the danger. Who will eliminate it? It is us or no one".
Of course, when Netanyahu says "no one", he means immoral people who have a tendency to bow and grovel before the worst sort of despots:
Here is how the politician Obama will play it: He will not deal with Iran's nuclear program and will by default force Israel to do the job. If things go well, he will weasel in on the credit, hinting at behind the scenes maneuvers, winks and nods and "green lights" and such. If things go badly, he will of course express "disappointment" in Israel and point to his administrations earlier "warnings" about the consequences. That's what passes for "leadership" in the US these days.

Meanwhile, it looks like the American President's new friends are selling uranium to Iran. Maybe he can charm them into behaving nicely, like he charmed a hopelessly gullible Jewish community into voting for him.

World Falling Apart Under Obama's Nose

North Korea explodes a nuke, which will now spark an Asian nuclear arms race; A nuclear armed Pakistan is collapsing as we speak; Iran Is on the verge of producing nuclear weapons while calling for the destruction of another country, and today sent five warships into international waters. Nobody knows if North Korea or Pakistan have already transferred nukes to Iran, Syria or even Hezbollah. We know they were in the process of building a nuclear reactor in Syria. Sunni Arab nations fearing Iran are all shopping for their own nuke programs.

And what is Obama's priority? That Kindergartens should not be built for little Jewish children in certain areas. Obama plans to continue his Islam apology tour in Cairo next week. Stay tuned.

And of course, who can forget this lovely picture of the triumph of fantasy over reality:

Adm. Mike Mullen Gets It?


"I'm one who believes that Iran getting a nuclear weapon is calamitous for the region and for the world... the downside is absolutely disastrous."

Wow, finally someone at least close to the Obama administration gets it. While Obama is busy sucking up to the Mullahs of Iran (and anything Islamic) and his CIA chief claiming two days ago that destroying Iran's nukes would mean "big trouble", at least one sober person in the entire Obama administration seems to understand the deal. Hopefully he will have at least some influence on this pack of starry-eyed lefties.
