We Are Being Warned

Say it isn't so:

JAFFA, Israel – A blog posting on Sen. Barack Obama's official campaign site urged Americans to take action to secure the release of imprisoned terrorist fundraiser Sami Al-Arian, comparing the controversial former professor to Martin Luther King and Malcolm X.

But it is so. however:

The posting, which has been removed since publication of this story, is just a sampling of a large volume of racist, anti-Semitic and pro-Palestinian rhetoric published on the user-friendly MyObama community blog pages. The Obama campaign does not monitor all blog material, which is posted by registered users, but says it removes offending posts that are brought to the attention of the administrators.

Wait a minute... this is an article from Jaffa, Israel, attacking Obama.

Hmmm. So do the Israelites believe Obama will favor the Palestinians over the Jews? After all, the guy has Muslim roots.

None the less, the article is a warning that we certainly don't have a clue where Obama will take us if he becomes president... but that some of his supporters seem to know.

Speaking Of Being Scammed...

I have a mage in World of Warcraft, recently referred to by some online putz as possibly the worst mage ever(I wouldn't make him a refreshment table), and booted me out of the group.

So I read a blurb about how some online outfit called IPWN.COM was selling a complete manual(to be downloaded to my computer) on how to make your mage one of the toughest ever.

Still sore about having been called the worst mage ever - even if I am - I sent the 17 bucks to the address provided.

Guess what? NO downloaded manual(four days later), just an e-mail thanking me for trusting their products.

Another lesson hard learned... don't commit money when you're angry... some son-of-a-bitch is just waiting to jump in and skin your butt.

And damn it all... I know better.

The BMW Automobile Company

My wife got an e-mail from something called the BMW Automobile Company, supposedly lurking somewhere in England, informing her she was the winner of a new BMW Series 5 2007 Model car, AND 450,000 Great British Pounds.

Well hell yes! I looked over the e-mail and it informed us we had to contact the "The International Awareness Promotion Department of the BMW Automobile Company", at 22 Garden Close, Stamford, Linos, PE9 Y2P London, United Kingdom.

Of course it was a scam, but I was curious as to how they were going to try to pry money out of the suckers, so I dutifully contacted this "Promotion Department", which returned an e-mail offering us four different delivery options, from the fastest "gold" delivery to the slowest snail version delivery.

And guess what? "Gold" delivery cost over $1,100 and the snail version cost only $700.00... payable in advance of course.

A quick check of BMW's real site had all manner of warnings about this outfit and the total fraud it was committing.

Actually, it's probably some Nigerian in the Bahamas pulling this stunt, since a LOT of this sort of thing is being done by Nigerians in the Bahamas or elsewhere. Seems that many of the Nigerians that came here to the United States to get an advanced education(try and guess on whose tax dollar) decided that computers are the perfect way to make easy money, and went into the offshore scam business. Saw a special on CNN on it awhile back.

They should be hunted down, shot, and tossed to the sharks. Nobody would ever miss them.

Lordy Lordy... This Guy Again...

America's number one Israeli agent-in-residence opens up his mouth... Again:

Sen. Joe Lieberman said that history shows the United States would likely face a terrorist attack in 2009,

Opined Lieberman: "Our enemies will test the new president early. Remember that the truck bombing of the World Trade Center happened in the first year of the Clinton administration. 9/11 happened in the first year of the Bush administration."

He said this during an interview in which he was promoting McCain for president, his number one assignment this electoral season.

In reality, both those incidents were executed with timing based on the preparedness of the attackers. As soon those terrorists believed they were ready, they went. They did not sit around, waiting, waiting, waiting until a new president entered office. As usual, Lieberman is full of it.

But that's his number one job, keeping Americans scared to death of a few dozen ragtag lunatics, and he really wants McCain in office, since McCain is nothing more than a pliable lump of Play-Doh that will keep on keeping on with the same insane Middle East policies that have been so expensive, deadly and disastrous for America.

By the way, who does he refer to when he says "our enemies"? The Jews of course. When he says "our" he means the Jews, not the witless goys of America. Well crafted word play.

Whenever you see or hear Lieberman spout off, mentally put a sign over his head that says "ISRAELI PROPAGANDIST". Then you will be able to readily understand the man and his motives.

This guy should be deported. He has always supported Israel 100%, regardless of the harm it caused America. It would be a constructive first step in taking our government back.

Addendum:

Some of you might erroneously think I don't respect Joe Lieberman. You would be wrong... I respect the grit he has shown with his single-minded purpose of supporting and promoting Israel, regardless of the cost to America.

What I despise about the man is his lifelong anti-American stance his mission for Israel has required. He can be defined as a classic traitor - not to his country - but to ours.

Shake That Bridge...

The flea in the elephant's ear* mouths off again:

A former head of Mossad has warned that Israel has 12 months in which to destroy Iran's nuclear programme or risk coming under nuclear attack itself. He also hinted that Israel might have to act sooner if Barack Obama wins the US presidential election.
Shabtai Shavit, an influential adviser to the Israeli parliament's defence and foreign affairs committee, told The Sunday Telegraph that time was running out to prevent Iran's leaders getting the bomb.

Let's open this up a bit.

First, this supposedly dire warning comes from a retired Mossad dude who is "out of the loop", so he's just venting his opinions, perhaps revealing Israeli State secrets in the process. But I don't think so... he's just promoting standard Israeli scare tactics, no doubt with the state's blessing.

Second, consider Mossad's track record, which is poor at best. They have been about as correct and timely with their intel as our own Homeland Security Department, which has become a cocktail hour joke in every circle of society.

So Israel runs the "risk of coming under nuclear attack". Big deal. Welcome to the real world....Everybody on the planet is under the risk of nuclear attack.

Israel is worried about one lousy A-bomb the Iranians might eventually try to build? The U.S. and Russia have thousands of them, all of them guaranteed to work.

Remember North Korea's "huge" nuclear bomb test? IT DIDN'T WORK, and now its seems North Korea has given up trying build A-bombs. Imagine that. Nobody attacked them, nobody destroyed their facilities.

Just because some small nation somewhere develops the ability to enrich uranium doesn't mean that they can succeed in mastering the huge technological leap required to make a workable bomb.

As far as a nuclear Holocaust goes, the real corker is that - in many aspects - Israel's conduct in the Middle East during the last sixty years has become a major contributor to today's worldwide nuclear risk.

A warning that Israel has 12 months in which to destroy Iran's nuclear programme or risk coming under nuclear attack is like warning the United States that it has "x" number of months to destroy China's nuclear programs, or risk coming under nuclear attack.

Doesn't sound sensible, does it? That's because it's not.

Like it or not, every nation on the planet has the right to develop nuclear energy for power generation. Oil won't last forever, and nuclear - except in the short-sighted United States - has become major player in providing the world's future energy needs. We are not going to stop it's development and use. Neither is Israel.

*THE FLEA IN THE ELEPHANT'S EAR

Once upon a time, an elephant decided to cross a bridge. Inside the elephant's ear was a tiny bloated flea, happily sustaining itself off the elephant's lifeblood.

As the elephant crossed the bridge, it rumbled, creaked and swayed, its timbers groaning under the massive weight of the load.

When the elephant reached the other side, the flea spoke up and said. "We sure shook that one, didn't we?".

But caution is recommended when dealing with a blood-sucking flea like that. It can be the death of it's host, just as in the the middle ages when a flea bite brought the plague, killing a third of Europe off with the Black Death.

Here We Go...

The NIMBY beast rears its ugly head:

PENSACOLA BEACH, Florida (Reuters) - For decades opposition to oil drilling off Florida's coast was one of the few issues uniting the state's Democrats and Republicans, who agreed that shielding the environment and the huge tourism industry came first.

Not now, as oil prices rise and U.S. motorists are paying serious prices at gasoline pumps...

What some see as a crack in the protective shield for Florida's $57 billion tourism industry has drawn howls of protest from Democrats and environmental groups.

For crying out loud, somebody tell all those Florida tree-hugging beachbums that the continental shelf is miles and miles out to sea, and that nobody - particularly all those retirees from New York City - will be able to see an oil rig unless they fly over it in an airplane!

Hillary's Strategy

I keep hearing nonsense spouting from the mouths of the empty-headed bobble heads and bimbos in TV land about how Hillary Clinton now believes Obama to be the best candidate for the democrats, and has thrown her full support behind him to show that belief.

Garbage, nonsense, and more garbage.

I will bet some serious money that Hillary believes as many of us do - regardless of party affiliation - that Obama will be an unmitigated disaster as president, and that she is positioning herself for her next run in 2012, when he will have completely removed himself from the picture. Then, Hillary can be anointed queen of the hill, unmolested by any more of these unexpected but smooth-talking upstarts.

Hillary will wait until hell freezes over for her chance at glory. Meanwhile, she's now playing the "good for the party" game.

I'm certain that Hillary - like many others - is satisfied that Obama will be such a train wreck that it will be decades before another Black has any sort of shot at the presidency, so any competition coming from that direction will be non-existent in 2012.

Racist? No, factual. Just look at Obamas dismal record as a Senator. As an example, his favorite non-vote in the Illinois Senate has not been pro or con on any of the tough or controversial issues, but "present". His record in the United States Senate shows no improvement in this kind of waffling.

Hillary - knowing all this - has often called Obama a "talker, not a doer". And she knows that if the next president can only talk a good game, it will generate unmitigated disaster for us all in the critical next four years.

Hiding in the weeds and waiting... the Clintons.

An Unspoken Reality

Most of us are now fully aware of the huge increases in the cost of gasoline and diesel. For the majority of us, fuel costs have become the number one worry, the number one budget breaker, the number one disaster facing us in everything we do. But it's not only the direct cost of fuel for our cars...

EVERYTHING IS GOING TO COST MORE

The cost of everything is chained to the cost of fuel. Everything you buy has been delivered by trucks, trucks whose operators are now paying today's ruinous cost of diesel fuel. Trucking firms across America are facing the reality of going out of business because they just can't afford the fuel to run their trucks any more. Many of our independent trucking firms and independent truckers cannot pass on the increasing costs of fuel because they are locked to contracts that specify the exact amount for the delivery services they have been providing, and the short-sighted people that control those contracts refuse to adjust them to today's realities.

YOUR ELECTRIC BILL WILL SKYROCKET

The cost of coal is skyrocketing, even though it is delivered by trains. Trains run on diesel, lots and lots of it. So, if you get your electricity now from a firm burning coal, stand by for a huge increase on your electric bill, an increase that will continue to rise.

WINTER IS COMING

Those of you who use heating oil in winter, prepare for disaster. Unmitigated disaster. The choice between making your monthly mortgage payment and eating, versus staying warm.

For a shrinking few, these increases have not yet hurt. But it soon will. Those who are making a living by providing some form of goods or service to the general public are going to see a huge decrease in demand for their goods or services as people tighten their belts.

HISTORY IN THE MAKING

We are watching the greatest transfer of wealth in history. Billions and billions of American dollars are going offshore to nations that do not like us, with billions and billions more to go, with no let-up in sight anywhere on the horizon. Since our foolish State and Federal governments have allowed the environmentalists to totally shut down our own massive energy sources, we are forced to do business with nations and peoples that would happily destroy us. We - by present law - cannot utilize our own resources to get us out of this mess.

We cannot drill in ANWAR, a desolate and empty space of eternal ice and wind, where only a few reindeer may pass through once or twice a year.

We cannot drill offshore, because a few elites living on the beaches don't want to see any oil platforms out at sea in front of their expensive trophy houses, it would spoil their view. No, it's not because of oil spills like they love to claim... surprised?

We cannot build critically needed new refineries anywhere in the United States. Blame the NIMBY attitude... the "Not In My Back Yard" attitude.

We cannot strip mine coal in many areas of the United States because someone will get upset over displacing a few animals and -again - getting their view spoiled by that nasty collection of industrial machinery.

We cannot dispose of our nuclear waste at Yucca Mountain, the safest place imaginable for the next 70 million years or so, because of a few lawsuits by crackpots worried over some imagined and non-existent event. So, no new Nuclear plants. Do like France, where they have 80% of their electricity provided by nuclear energy... they reprocess the waste.

These are all problems of our own making, but to confound the issue, we are now facing the results of supporting six decades of conflict with those nations that believe Israel to be an invader and occupier of Arab lands. Whether this is true of not makes no difference, since we are the ones who have been - and are - paying the bill for this decades-long Jewish experiment in Palestine. We Americans have spent trillions of dollars fighting Arab enemies generated by the UN created State of Israel. Today, Arab oil suppliers are now literally punishing us for supporting Israel, a fact you will never hear from our own news sources, but it is true, and the major reason of the 45% increase in oil since the beginning of this year. There is no way the American dollar has declined 45% during these few months as the media would like us to believe, and the fact is that present day oil supplies are totally adequate to meet current demands.

You may have noticed... there is no shortage of oil products.

SOLUTIONS

Get rid of the short-sighted fools in our state and federal governments that have allowed this disaster to unfold.

Eliminate those insane laws that do not allow us to take advantage of our own resources.

Cancel and recall those oil leases that have been sold to individuals, corporations and foreign nations that refuse us the right to drill for our readily available oil.

Forget about us causing global warming. It's caused by recurring cycles of the sun. There's plenty of evidence for that from reputable researchers around the world. Forget Gore and his posse of tree-huggers... they're ruining us all.

Allow Israel to sink or swim on its own merits. Sixty years should be sufficient time to determine whether or not they can survive on their own. We cannot afford to keep propping them up, it's getting far to expensive, and may bankrupt America if we continue on our present course.

CONCLUSIONS

Global warming is being caused by forces far beyond our control.

We have the technology to produce totally safe nuclear energy, practical ways to dispose of the spent fuel rods, and the ability to produce clean energy from coal.

We have everything we need to become energy independent, to put a stop to this massive transfer of our wealth from us to hostile foreigners. All we need do is toss out the cretins that put us where we are today, and repair the damage they have done to us, to America, to our future.

Let Israel go its own way. But confiscate their stash of nuclear bombs. Allowing Israel to have nukes is as dangerous to world peace as allowing Iran or North Korea to have nukes. Actually more, since they believe any war they start - even nuclear - is justified by their god.

The people running our government have failed us all. Time to replace them. If they refuse to go, eliminate them.

Cannonade

Joseph Cannon, over at Cannonfire, is really opening up on Obama. Here's an example:

ll say it again. I'll say it a hundred more times if need be. This isn't about Hillary Clinton. This is about Barack Obama.

He's a crook and a chronic liar, and his team is headed by creeps like Brzezinski, Axelrod, Daley, Goolsbee and Liebman. I despise nearly every single one of Obi's associates -- especially Brzezinski, the Pol Pot funder who caused a lot of lifelong Dems (including your truly) to take a Kennedy-or-else attitude in 1980.

If you read Cannonfire regularly, you know that Joseph always has a ton of documentation to back his posts, and if he calls Obama a "crook and a chronic liar", then the man is most probably a crook and a chronic liar.

Very disturbing traits in a man who just might be our next president.

Our Pedophilic Supreme Court

Can you believe this?

WASHINGTON - The Supreme Court on Wednesday outlawed executions of people convicted of raping a child.

In a 5-4 vote, the court said the Louisiana law allowing the death penalty to be imposed in such cases violates the Constitution's ban on cruel and unusual punishment.

"The death penalty is not a proportional punishment for the rape of a child," Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote in his majority opinion. His four liberal colleagues joined him, while the four more conservative justices dissented.

Unbelievable.

In my view, child rapists are scum of the earth, and have no business whatever walking around alive on this planet. Louisiana, for all it's faults, has this one right, and should tell the not-so Supreme Court to go to Hell, earlier rather than later, which is where they are all headed anyway - assuming of course, that there really is a Hell. But it's the thought that counts.
