- I know a shallow intellect when I see it — or why Obama’s carpet and Jan Brewer’s brain freeze are two sides of the same coin. The error perfectly encapsulates the shallowness of Barack Obama's intellect, and his lack of rigor. Obama is a man who accumulated academic credentials while giving no evidence whatsoever of achieving any depth. He was the only president of the Harvard Law Review to graduate without penning a signed article in that esteemed journal. His academic transcripts remain under lock and key, as do his academic papers.Read the full story here.Click here for comments.

- 'Muslim' gargoyle adorns French cathedral.A Muslim stonemason in France has been immortalised by having his face carved on a gargoyle on the side of the medieval cathedral in Lyon. Ahmed Benzizine - a 59-year-old master mason who worked on the renovation - was used as a model for the carving. Next to it is an inscription in Arabic and French which reads: Allahu Akbar, God is Great.But a local far-right group has said the carving is an affront to the Catholic Church.You don't need to be far right to say it's an insult to the Catholic Church!What if we would write on the Al-Aqsa Mosque "Jesus Christ : I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me shall live even if he dies.“There would be suicide bombers in every corner of the streets!Read the full deceit full story here.Click here for comments.

- Children Under Sharia Law, Part 3: Chechen Girls Not Wearing Headscarves Targeted with Violence During Ramadan.How do you celebrate your biggest holiday of the year? Well in at least one Muslim region, men are celebrating Ramadan by using violence against girls and women who will not wear head coverings. As Sharia is spreading in parts of Russia, attacks on females of all ages is growing right along with it.Though only Reuters and Human Rights Watch has seemed to notice, brutality against women all over Chechnya has broken out lately. Chechnya is a federal republic of Russia that is almost completely Muslim and pushes Sharia law even when it goes against Russian law. Their Moscow-backed President, Ramzan Kadyrov has been a big proponent of such terror against women.Read the full story here.Click here for comments.

- The New York Times Laments "A Sadly Wary Misunderstanding of Muslim-Americans." But Really Is It "Sadly Wary" Or A "Misunderstanding" At All?I want to believe that Muslims are traumatized by the unrelieved murders in Islamic lands. Frankly, the only demonstration against a mass killing (after all, they happen nearly every day) I've read about was last week in Pakistan when some 30-odd people, not designated and not guilty of doing anything except going to a Shia shrine were blown right then and there. A day or two after two bombs went off taking the lives of what turned out--you can read it about in the recent Tehran Times--to be just under one hundred Shi'ites in two town different towns.Read the full story here.Click here for comments.
- Feingold unfriends Obama.“President Barack Obama hopes to improve the fortunes of suddenly imperiled Wisconsin Democrats as he celebrates Labor Day with the state’s union workers on Monday. Democrats are happy for any boost he can deliver — though his appeal has been sliding — as resurgent Republicans have two big targets: three-term U.S. Sen. Russ Feingold, whose defeat could help them gain control of the U.S. Senate, and the governor’s office, which is open for the first time in nearly three decades.”So, how happy are the Democrats to see Barack Obama is here to save the day and Senator Feingold?From the Associated Press: “Though when Obama is to speak in Milwaukee, Feingold will be about 60 miles away at a parade in his hometown of Janesville. Feingold, who faces a serious re-election challenge from Republican Ron Johnson, planned to be at the Milwaukee event in the morning four hours before the president arrives.”So the president comes and the senator ducks out of town.Read the full story here.Click here for comments.
- HT:Tundratabloid.Video:Two Sunnis,one dead ayatollah and their prophet's well documented pedophilia.Just to be clear, this video is of two Sunnis on tv chastising the late supreme leader of the Shiia, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, for his well documented pedophilia.""A man can quench his sexual lusts with a child as young as a baby. However, he should not penetrate. Sodomizing the baby is halal (allowed by sharia). If the man penetrates and damages the child, then he should be responsible for her subsistence all her life. This girl, however, does not count as one of his four permanent wives. The man will not be eligible to marry the girl's sister. It is better for a girl to marry when her menstruation starts, and at her husband's house rather than her father's home. Any father marrying his daughter so young will have a permanent place in heaven."Read and see the whole story here.Click here for comments.
- Tamils in Thailand ready for latest shipment to Canada.A report that a new shipload of Tamils biding their time in Thailand are awaiting pickup by another steamer in preparation to hoist anchor and steam ahead to Canada in time for the Christmas season.While 493 illegal Tamil migrants already in custody in various detention centres in metro Vancouver from the last run last August, Canada's Federal government officials are on a world tour asking European countries how they deal with illegal migrants in their countries. Apparently Canada's federal officials do not have access to European dailies or Internet videos on Europe's sporadic riots over everything from quaint cultural misunderstandings, decades of terrorism to illegal queue jumpers.Read the full story here.Click here for comments.
- Putin Steps Up Crackdown on Opposition Press.Amidst office raids, he threatens to "crack the skulls" of protesters who assemble without police permission.In Putin’s Russia, women stand at the vanguard of the fight for freedom and democracy, at least where the news media is concerned. So now that he has liquidated journalist Anna Politkovskaya and erased Natalia Estemirova, two new names are at the top of Vladimir Putin’s hit list: Yevgenia Albats and Yulia Latynina.Read the full Story here.Click here for comments.
- Doing the DOJ’s Job for Them: Demanding Valid Voter Rolls Before November.I have sent notice letters to 16 states informing them that they are in violation of the National Voting Rights Act. Private lawsuits may follow if they do not comply.As the saying goes: if you want a job done right, you have to do it yourself. If Americans don’t want dead and ineligible felons participating in elections, they will have to clean up the mess themselves, as Attorney General Eric Holder won’t do his job by enforcing the integrity protections in the “Motor Voter” law passed in 1993.Read the full story here.Small Sample of Philly Voter Rolls Reveals Hundreds of Ineligible Names!An ex-DOJ lawyer finds out just how damaging the DOJ failure to enforce up-to-date voter lists can be to the republic.Read the full scam story here!Click here for comments.
- Barack Obama: The ‘Use Your Words’ President.As a screenwriter, I was able to put those words in the mouth of a loony Left character. They know politically that they have to say they support the troops. But they would feel more comfortable if American soldiers spent their time doing hurricane relief.It was painful to watch President Obama give his speech on the end of the combat mission in Iraq. It was a war he had opposed, refused to fund, and said the surge would not work. All this war stuff seemed boring to him. Obama came across as cold and aloof. He said some of the right things but you had this gnawing feeling that he didn’t really mean them.Read the full story here.Click here for comments.
- HT:Legalinsurection.Demonizer-In-Chief Upset People Demonize Him.Obama's line, in his Labor Day speech in Milwaukee before union leaders and a union crowd, that "[t]hey talk about me like a dog," is getting all the attention.But you really need to read the entire speech. It is classic Obama, living in a time warp, declaring that unions are the past and the future of prosperity, and focusing on large infrastructure programs as if this were the 1930s.This truly is another of those windows into his divisive soul. The Demonizer-in-Chief and the class warfare expert doesn't like being treated the way he treats others.Too bad.Read the full story here.Click here for comments.
- Obama & Democrats stimulate other countries while driving America over the cliff.In President Obama’s Labor Day speech he claimed that under President Bush, “Companies were rewarded with tax breaks for creating jobs overseas.” Oh really? Facts are inconvenient things… let’s take a look at who is doing more to “stimulate” other countries…USAID for international/foreign assistance totals $173.5 BILLION, spent by President Obama and his Democrat-controlled Congress. The breakdown is as follows:•FY2010 = $90.6 BILLION (60% increase since FY 2008)•FY2009 = $82.9 BILLION (47% increase since FY 2008).Is there a brave journalist who will ask the President and the Democratic Party, “Since your actions show that you are not on the side of the American people, exactly whose side are you on?”Read the full

- HT:AmericanThinker.The Most Profound Victims of the Obama Hoax.The Fourth Great Awakening in American history continues to expand among those who drank the Obama Campaign Kool-Aid. Statistically, the most zealous believers in hope and change are the most profound victims of the Obama Hoax - poor, young, unemployed blacks."A sense of disappointment, bordering on betrayal, has been growing across the country, especially in moderate states like Indiana, where people now openly say they didn't quite understand the President they voted for in 2008."

- Lords of Dogtown.As James Taranto of the Wall Street Journal likes to note, the Democratic Party has had many powerful orators over the years:•Andrew Jackson is often attributed as saying, “One man with courage makes a majority.”•Franklin D. Roosevelt comforted the nation when he said, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.”•Harry Truman famously said, “The buck stops here.”•John F. Kennedy reminded Americans, “Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.”•President Barack Obama, “They talk about me like a dog!”Read the full story here.Click here for comments.
