I've got an idea - thinking smiley with light bulb

This is an open thread. You are invited to add your own suggestions and advice, and to discuss whatever else you like.

By 1389AD

1. It is NOT your job to pander to whatever nonsense the voters have been told that they should want. As soon as you let the leftist media and academia define the terms of the debate, you have already lost.

Instead, it is your job to follow in the footsteps of Ronald Reagan by EDUCATING your constituents about which policies make sense and which don’t, and WHY this is so.

That is the difference between a venal political hack and a statesman.

2. Islam is NOT a religion in any sense of the word that America’s founders understood a religion to be. Instead, it is an expansionist, enemy, totalitarian political ideology that is very much akin to National Socialism (Nazism), and that seeks to rid the world of everything but itself.

Be ready to deal with Islam much as we dealt with Nazism seven decades ago – except more thoroughly this time around.

3. The Constitution is intended to limit the power and activities of the government. Respect those limits, and stop looking for loopholes.

4. Socialism violates the US Constitution. If you genuinely believe that socialism is a good thing, then put your money where your mouth is, drop out of the US political scene, and move to North Korea.

5. Be prepared to re-evaluate all government programs and actions. If you, or your predecessors, have made a policy error, be a big enough person to admit it, and to do whatever is necessary to roll it back and reverse it completely.

Did CAIR Endorse Mitt Romney?

It sure looks that way! If US voters had any common sense whatsoever, this would put the final nail in the coffin of Romney’s misbegotten political career.

Is Caribou Coffee Owned by Supporters of Palestinian Terrorists?

The left-leaning (and pro-Muslim) Snopes website downplays the claim that Caribou Coffee is Muslim-owned. But it does reveal that the First Islamic Investment Bank bailed out the troubled firm by purchasing an 87.5% share of Caribou Coffee, and that, at least before 2002, the firm was associated with the infamous Yusuf al-Qaradawi.

I have not patronized any Caribou Coffee outlet in many years, and will not do so again as long as there is any significant Muslim ownership.

Snopes.com: Caribou Coffee

Claim:   An Islamic bank is the majority owner of the Caribou Coffee chain.
Status:   Partly true.
Example:   [Collected on the Internet, 2002]

As you will see from the links below, Caribou Coffee is owned 87.8% by the First Islamic Investment Bank which, among other things has the following philosophy: “Above all, ensuring that all activities conform to Islamic Shari’ah” The chairman of their Shari’ah supervisory board is:

Dr. Yusuf Abdullah Al-Qaradawi
Chairman, Seerah & Sunnah Center, Qatar University;
Professor, Faculty of Shari’ah, Qatar University…

Did Al Qaeda Assassinate Rabbi Meir Kahane?

Who were, and are, the real terrorists? Not Rabbi Meir Kahane, but those who murdered him.

News Real Blog: Was KSM Behind the Murder of Meir Kahane?

The controversial Rabbi Meir Kahane, whose political network was designated a foreign terrorist organization by the U.S. State Department, had many enemies. But he made perhaps his most consequential foe when he spoke at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University in the mid-1980s.

In the audience that day was an “enraged” Khalid Shaikh Mohammed—al-Qaeda’s operational mastermind who planned, among countless others, the 9/11 attacks. The description of KSM, as he is known, comes from Richard Miniter, the investigative journalist who has just published Mastermind: The Many Faces of the 9/11 Architect, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed. Miniter makes the case that KSM may in fact have been behind Kahane’s 1990 assassination in New York City. (Note: I will be conducting a broad interview with Miniter this week on the book and KSM—so, much more to come on KSM.)

Miniter suggests that when KSM bragged to his interrogators in 2003 that he was behind Kahane’s murder he was telling the truth, not just blowing hot air, as the CIA assumed:

“Virtually all of the players in the 1990 Kahane assassination would reappear in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, which KSM funded and his nephew orchestrated. This cannot be a coincidence, yet to this day it has largely been ignored by investigators.”

Why Does the US and NATO Provide Cover For Muslim War Criminals in the Balkans?

UP Pompeii: Why have Muslims not been on trial in the Hague – for atrocities against humanity

Why have Muslims not been on trial in the Hague – for atrocities against humanity

I have been following the trial of General Vladic and this trial like the trial of Milosevic is not going to tell the real story of what happened in Kosovo.

Kosovo as we all know was, for many centuries part of Serbia, Kosovo was, over the years populated by Albanian Muslims, all was quiet for some time but as we all know Muslims and Islam work on the critical mass principle, once critical mass is reached then the annexation of the occupied land begins, in other words part of the country in which the Muslims are is literally stolen from that nation state, this was the fate of Kosovo.

The same principle is being enacted in the middle east in a place that many call Palestine, this is a land grab by Muslims of Israeli territory, and here as in Bosnia the West is trying to enable the Islamic takeover of this land.

In Bosnia the West succeeded , they, the West also committed one of the biggest war crimes in History, when I say “west” I refer to Messrs Clinton and Blair – two World leaders who now have the dubious honour of actually attacking their own, and wilfully aiding a hostile predatory force take over sovereign territory of a free Western democratic country.

The Bosnians have been accused of genocide and the slaughter of thousands of Muslims, very little evidence has been shown to back this up, there is plenty of testimony, but as Goebels said if you tell the people a big enough lie often enough they will accept it as truth. The Media in the West made sure of this the rest of the World followed suit, they swallowed the Muslim propaganda and force fed it to the public at large.

They ignored a great deal, it did not fit their agenda

The following will hopefully give some insight into what actually happened in Bosnia…

Fostering Pets – Prime Minister Stephen Harper of Canada

(h/t: 2soonold2latesmart)

Canadian PM Stephen Harper with Cats

The Harpers are proud to support and participate in the Ottawa Humane Society’s Foster Program, which provides temporary homes for pets in the community who are not yet ready for adoption.

The program fosters out animals with mild health or behaviour issues who need individual care and nurturing to help them recover before they are adopted by new, loving foster families.

Laureen and Stephen have been foster parents to many cats during the past year. At any given time, the Harpers have provided foster care to numerous cats at their Ottawa home.

Similar programs are in place across Canada. Foster pet programs help thousands of animals – including cats, dogs, birds and rabbits – each year. These programs allow:

  • Those who want to make a difference for an animal to do so, without making a long-term commitment.
  • Foster parents to see if they are ready for long-term pet ownership.

Contact your local SPCA or Humane Society to find out if they offer a foster pet program.

Weinergate: Sleeping with the Enemy

At first glance, Anthony Weiner’s use of the Internet as a vehicle for long-distance flashing might seem to be off-topic for a hard-news counterjihad blog. (No pun intended!) Other sources, such as Andrew Breitbart and Robert Stacy McCain, have already provided ample coverage, and yes, the jokes just keep on writing themselves.

But it turns out that there’s more to the story than that. Much more.

Politically incorrect comedienne Julia Gorin mines Weinergate for some new comedy gold:

Strauss-Kahn’s Weiner

June 08th 2011 10:41:56 PM – Posted by Julia Gorin

So it turns out that Anthony Weiner’s wife is a Muslim who works for Hillary Clinton. This explains a lot. He must have figured that if she likes Hillary so much, then — like Hillary — she wouldn’t mind if he showed his pee-pee to others.

Given that the man who married them was Bill Clinton, their fate was pretty much sealed right there.

Mr. and Mrs. Skeletor a/k/a Anthony Weiner and Huma Abedin
(Ever notice how people will often marry people who look exactly like them?)

Now, I haven’t been following this story or the one about the other prominent Jew and his Muslim. That would be IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn and the devout West African Muslim hotel maid he allegedly tried to rape. First, I must explain that it wasn’t his Jewishness that made him force himself on the woman, but his Frenchness. Jews don’t tend to be rapists, just perverts.

Not that French tend to be “rapists” per se; it’s just a hazier term there since declining sex isn’t normal or common, and so “rape” as such isn’t common.

Regardless, the news of the Jew trying to rape a Muslim should at least satisfy this woman, who won an award from Hebrew University for arguing that IDF soldiers NOT raping Muslim women is a form of racism.

In other words, Strauss-Kahn may be a rapist, but at least he’s no racist!

My main objection to Anthony Weiner is not his having tweeted his genitalia; it’s his role as point man for policies that are profoundly destructive to the US. For that, the blame belongs to the ignoramuses in his district who elected him.

From the viewpoint of US national interests, the real EPIC FAIL here is all about Weiner’s wife, Huma Abedin, and her connection with the Clintons. It has been going on for a very long time, and it has largely escaped notice in the press.

I find it problematic that both a prominent US Congressman and the current Secretary of State are, literally as well as figuratively, in bed with a Muslimah.

Talk about sleeping with the enemy!

If Hillary Clinton had a lesbian affair with Huma Abedin then everything in Weinergate fits

(h/t: Sparta)

By Kevin “Coach” Collins

People are motivated to follow their darker instincts by lust for money power or sex.

In mid 2007 rumors started to circulate about Huma Abedin a stunningly beautiful staffer working for Hillary Clinton. The wagging tongues of Washington asked logical questions about Huma. “If Hillary is bisexual (as had long been thought and occasionally uttered in public), what is the nature of her relationship with the dark eyed enchanting Abedin, a young lady from a strict Muslim family?”

“Is the fact that Huma was never seen twice in the same designer outfit and lived in a $649,000 condo explainable because she was trading sexual favors with Hillary for a fabulous lifestyle?” “If so what does that make Huma?”

“How did Huma, whose government salary was listed as $9,999, live as she did?”

“Is Hillary Clinton a lesbian?”

Is Huma Abedin her lesbian “kept woman?”

In 2007 Michael Musto a Village Voice columnist who writes about gay issues commented that Hillary might be “Gayle King-ing” Huma, that is getting her a higher profile in order to head off media scrutiny about her and why Clinton would be “hiding” Huma and the true nature of their relationship.

In her tell all book about her affair with Bill Clinton Gennifer Flowers wrote that when she asked Bill if Hillary is a lesbian he laughed and made reference to her being more experienced with women then he is.

The purpose of this essay is NOT to prove Hillary Clinton and Huma Abedin are lesbians, but to raise the question: If they are daughters of Sapphos wouldn’t it have been a good deal for Anthony Weiner to become Huma’s beard or faux husband?

Killing any rumor of a lesbian relationship between Hillary and Huma would be very helpful to Hillary’s drive to be elected president, and a “President Hillary Clinton” would be enormously helpful to Weiner’s long held dream of being elected Mayor of New York City.

The coverage of Weinergate has nibbled around the edges. The reports have carefully avoided mentioning the scandal’s “third rail”: the relationship between Huma Abedin Congressman Anthony Weiner’s wife and her former boss Hillary Clinton. Nevertheless, if this is the root of the relationship between Huma and Weiner the whole ugly affair falls into place.

Bill Clinton understands all to well what it’s like to live with a women like Hillary. He knows what it can drive an ordinary man to do. Anthony Weiner’s tweets to a porn star may be motivated by more than mere curiosity.

The biggest motivators driving human behavior are money power and sex. This one has all three.

Zimbio: Hillary Clinton’s Lesbian lover Huma Abedin?

(h/t: Sparta)

The August issue of American Vogue featured an article on Huma Abedin, the traveling chief of staff for presidential hopeful, Hillary Clinton. As observed on Gawker http://gawker.com/news/huma-abedin/, the Vogue article is lengthy but lacks substance similar to the Observer piece in April. Huma is characterized in short as a control freak, beautiful and a force to be reckon with. Yet, there isn’t much evidence of her intellect and capabilities outside of showing composure in designer clothes and accessories and having a keen understanding of political dynamics in the Middle East having lived there until her teens and raised by parents who are professors and of Indian and Pakistani descent. She has worked for Clinton as an intern/aide since graduating from George Washington. I just don’t see how she can be sought out for her expertise in matters related to the Middle East when she hasn’t worked in an objective international capacity outside of being Clinton’s aide. If she has, the authors of the artices in Vogue and the Observer should have pointed that out rather than rely on just the opinions of others. How about demonstrating the woman’s true smart rather than focusing on how smart and polish she looks in an Yves Saint Laurent suit?

It is worrying too that high power people in Washington like Senator Clinton is heavily relying on the advice of people who haven’t had extensive professional experience in international politics. Even if she grew up in the Middle East, I think that things have changed drastically in the 12+ years she has been away in Washington at college and working for Clinton. Somehow I don’t think that growing up in Saudi Arabia was so bad.

I’m sure that Senator Clinton have some very smart people working for her which makes me surprise that they allow such articles to be printed. Not so much the fact that the articles has a lot of fluff painting Huma as a super-woman, a wonder-kid. By putting forth the image of Huma and Hillary has dynamic, stylish, professional women, they are widening the gap between Senator Clinton and middle America, a weakness of her campaign. I would hope that America is ready for a woman president. However, I’m not sure if America knows how to relate to a woman presidential candidate and the fact that she’s an accomplished lawyer/politician woman makes it even worse. There’s no need to paint a perfect picture of these women to give the average Joes and Janes out there more reason to stay clear of Hillary Clinton…
