Clinton Credits
January 31, 2006
Former US president Bill Clinton warned of rising anti-Islamic prejudice, comparing it to historic anti-Semitism as he condemned the publishing of cartoons depicting Prophet Mohammed in a Danish newspaper.
“So now what are we going to do? … Replace the anti-Semitic prejudice with anti-Islamic prejudice?” he said at an economic conference in the Qatari capital of Doha.
“In Europe, most of the struggles we’ve had in the past 50 years have been to fight prejudices against Jews, to fight against anti-Semitism,” he said.
Clinton described as “appalling” the 12 cartoons published in a Danish newspaper in September depicting Prophet Mohammed and causing uproar in the Muslim world.
The cartoons, including a portrayal of the prophet wearing a time-bomb-shaped turban, were reprinted in a Norwegian magazine in January, sparking uproar in the Muslim world where images of the prophet are considered blasphemous.
Comment: Has the Ex Prez considered that these same types of blasphemous remarks come on a daily basis in America? Except that they are blasphemous to Christianity. Yet the compassionate President doesn’t seem to have anything to say about that.
As far as we have fought Anti-Semitism…The Religion of the Jew is not going around the world randomly bombing and maiming people. As I mentioned in my previous post, it would be nice if some of the flock of Muslims would protest its Jihadists. Instead they lack credability for their inaction.
On the Validity of Religion
January 31, 2006
Catholics, Baptists, Muslims…all religions that have been under scrutiny of late. OR continously.
Religion risks becoming cultish and without credibility when its critics are vacant from within its own ranks.
It seems this vacancy is terribly missing as religions become more fundamental.
You see this in Bible Thumping versions of Baptists. You this in Jehovah’s Witnesses (who many would argue is a cult), and the silence is deafening amongst Muslims.
You would think a Religion whose Public Relation players would have you believe that it is a peace loving faith, would put a stop to Jihad. To be insulted that their faith is being hijacked by fraudsters who claim to be peace loving Muslims. Inaction is by default responsibility and acceptance.
Germany to a great degree was guilty for Hitlers actions, if for no other reason but for their passivity. Their passivity allowed for Germany’s deriliction of justice and moral clarity.
But just saying you are something does not mean that you are. To the Muslim world:
“I cannot hear a word you are saying, because your actions speak so loudly”
KFI Los Angeles morning man Bill Handel is under fire from a Muslim civil liberties group-CAIR for comments he made earlier this month.
The Council on American-Islamic Relations has demanded that Handel apologize and be disciplined for making fun of a stampede that killed hundreds of Muslims during an annual pilgrimage.
Although harsh by Handel, I would like to concentrate on his challenge that he has issued to CAIR as conditions for his apology.
Handel, who says CAIR has ties to terrorist organizations, says he will apologize if CAIR will issue the following three statements:
Handel told listeners that he doesn’t believe CAIR will comply. And of course it is a no brainer that he is right.
An Ex 1st Ladies Fantasy
January 31, 2006
Americans are growing ‘impatient” as they wait for a woman to be elected president, 2008 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton said Saturday night.
“People are saying,’ Well, at least we’re ready,’” Clinton told interviewer Jane Pauley, as the two held a public chat for charity in San Francisco.
“There’s a feeling that it’s time,” she added.
Then, in quotes picked up the New York Sun, the former first lady said she detected “a certain impatience” to see a female president following the election of women to similar roles in other countries.
Despite Mrs. Clinton’s claims, a Gallup poll found last week that 51 percent of Americans had already made up their minds not to vote for her.
Hollywood did their best to lather up American’s appetite for a woman Prez, but money is money. “Commander in Chief†started out as the season’s most talked-about new show, but the initial hype didn’t translate into solid ratings – and ABC has shelved the White House drama.
Exxon Biggest Profit in History
January 30, 2006
After a year of accusations of price gauging, Exxon Mobil Corp. posted record profits for any U.S. company on Monday _ $10.71 billion (the last quarter is post New Orleans Flood) for the fourth quarter and $36.13 billion for the year _ as the world’s biggest publicly traded oil company benefited from high oil and gas prices and demand for refined products. The results exceeded Wall Street expectations and Exxon shares rose nearly 3 percent in morning trading.
This falls in line with pundits like Bill O’Reilly who has accused big Oil as taking advantage of the KAtrina disaster to gauge us.
I remember in LA after the Northridge earthquake. Enteprising people drove into the Valley to sell much needed water. The cost was to say the least, HUGE. Like $20 for a liter of water. They were being arrested.
Arguably, they were just entrepreneurs. They were not monopolistic by any definition.
The people who lived in the Valley could have spent a half hour or an hour driving over the hill to get their supply of water virtually for free.
However, Big Oil is for all intensive purposes a monopoly. And their gauging is acceptable?
Alito Nomination will happen depite Llibs
January 29, 2006
Hillary Clinton has bent to pressure in order to no doubt grab the liberal attention of her lost party.
This is in direct conflict as to what America actually wants. http://www.rasmussenreports.com has displayed a poll, proving America’s support of Alito.
Global Warming
January 29, 2006
Former U.S. President Bill Clinton told corporate chieftains and political bigwigs Saturday that climate change was the world’s biggest problem — followed by global inequality and the “apparently irreconcilable” religious and cultural differences behind terrorism.
“First, I worry about climate change,” Clinton said in an onstage conversation with the founder of the World Economic Forum. “It’s the only thing that I believe has the power to fundamentally end the march of civilization as we know it, and make a lot of the other efforts that we’re making irrelevant and impossible.”
Atta boy bubba. Climate change, something that is called in other forums as the ozone layer change or global warming, by many unqualified sceintists other than ecoligical scientists is above terrorism.
And Islamic Terrorists with atomic bombs are not worrysim A good nuke or chem bomb will change the environment faster than an SUV Mr. Bill.
The Fraud of Modern Media Polling
January 27, 2006
Newspapers like the LA Times and other Major newspapers scratch their heads over why they are having to layoff employees.
One word: Credibility
A recent poll by New York Times/CBS poll found that support for the president’s warrantless surveillance program is “mixed.”
However, as Powerline points out the poll is bogus. In addition to the usual MSM trick of over-sampling Democrats, including non-voters, etc., the pollsters asked misleading questions that do not reflect the actual nature of the NSA intercept program.![Polling America [Two Volumes] : An Encyclopedia of Public Opinion](http://images.amazon.com/images/P/0313327017.01._SCMZZZZZZZ_.jpg)
The more the Times revealed about the program the more they found that Americans overwhelmingly supported Bush. Read that again in another way.
The more they told the truth, the more Americans supported Bush.
The AnkleBitingPundits pointed out that the Poll also was heavily favored toward Democrats in a variety of ways.

Sadaam General Says IRAQ had WMD’s
January 26, 2006
Georges Sada’s book tells of Saddam Hussein’s plan to destroy Israel and hide weapons of mass destruction
When Air Force Col. David Eberly was shot down over Iraq in January 1991, he found himself in the clutches of a madman. 
Qusai Hussein - in every worst way his father’s son - demanded that Eberly and the other captured coalition pilots be classified as criminals of war and killed outright.
Only one man stood in his way.
Iraqi Gen. Georges Sada took his life in his hands and for weeks lobbied with a lunatic to save the pilots.
“To his personal credit, he saved my life and the lives of the other Americans and the Brits and the Kuwaiti,” says Eberly, the highest-ranking POW of Desert Storm, now retired and living in Williamsburg.
Sada ended up thrown in prison and “suffered greatly for his actions,” Eberly says. more
On tonight’s FOX News with Haniity and Colmes, Sada told the audience that upon learning of UN Inspections that Iraq moved WMD’s to Syria under the cover of a natural disaster.
The ex-Saddam Hussein’s top military adviser, who is also a devout Christian, has written a book in which he tells about the former Iraqi dictator’s plans to destroy Israel, hide weapons of mass destruction and overtake the Arab world.
Georges Hormis Sada, a former air vice marshal in Saddam’s air force, gives a firsthand account of his interaction with and service to the ousted leader and how his faith was a vital part of it all.
“This book is not just a tell-all about Saddam Hussein,” said Sada, 65, the former president of the Assembly of Evangelical Presbyterian Churches in Iraq. “I hope that this book will help people to see what this man was really like. But more than anything I hope that people who read it will see that appeasing tyrants is always a bad idea. As we all know now, kissing up to Saddam Hussein was a recipe for disaster. And we’re still paying the price for that today.”
A Soldier Writes from Iraq
January 25, 2006
I got this from Grassfire.org:
>Representative Murtha,
> Recently you have taken the stance that we should
> withdraw our forces from Iraq immediately, citing that
> it is becoming another “Viet Nam”. I would think that as
> a Viet Nam veteran, the last thing you would want is to
> withdraw from a conflict and end up being losers again
> for only the second time in the history of our great
> nation. All of the lives of our service men and women
> that were lost in Viet Nam, were lost in vein because
> we did not stay the course.
> As a veteran of both Afghanistan, and Iraq, I feel that
> before you voice your opinion on national TV, you should
> first visit Iraq and see whats really happening over
> there. The infrastructure of Iraq is improving daily.
COMMENT: I hear this all the time yet the popular media refuses to report it.
> Hospitals are running at well above the level that they

COMMENT: Awesome Point similar to what I pointed out in the past.
>Why don’t you give
