Send Rifqa Bary a Christmas card

Bary denied visitors including her minister.
The authorities, at the command of the Barys’ lawyer Omar, continue to isolate her. She has been in Ohio for well over a month and still there is no “approved visitation” list. How can this be? How can it be that friends who request a visit, and whom Rifqa requests to visit, are repeatedly told “there is no approved visitation list”? Is it not the very mission by objective of children’s services to protect the health and welfare of a child? Why has Rifqa been denied “pastoral guidance”? Convicts, murderers, rapists, and pedophiles have access to “pastoral guidance”. Is that how powerful and influential Islamic jihad has become in the state of Ohio — that one young girl is starved of spiritual nourishment so as not to insult Islam? Has everyone gone mad?

Please send Rifqa a Christmas card. Let her know you stand with her.  Send it to:
Rifqa Bary

If what I posted is true, it is almost like she is in jail because she converted from the Muslim faith to Christianity.

Obama escapes the Oval Office again

He attended a basketball game and fed his face.
President Obama attended today's Oregon State-George Washington University basketball game to cheer on his brother-in-law, Beavers coach Craig Robinson. The first lady, Malia and Sasha Obama, and President Obama's mother-in-law Marian Robinson were in attendance as well. According to the AP, the family was "intensely interested in the outcome." All of the cheering paid off, as Oregon State won, 64-57. .

Did he have a food taster?
Who paid for the additional security?
And at least he didn't fly on Air Force One to get there.

Obama’s Thanksgiving dinner has 50 guests

but no visit to our military – only a couple phone calls.
The Obamas are having an equally plentiful meal. In addition to the traditional turkey, the family is having a honey baked ham. There will also be two kinds of stuffing (oyster and cornbread), macaroni and cheese, and six -- yes, six -- different kinds of pie.

The first family is hosting about 50 guests at the White House today, including family, friends and staff, according to the press office.

We are told that of all of the items on the generous table, the president’s favorites are turkey and pumpkin pie.

Here is the full menu:

Turkey
Honey-Baked Ham
Cornbread Stuffing
Oyster Stuffing
Greens
Macaroni and Cheese
Sweet Potatoes
Mashed Potatoes
Green Bean Casserole

Banana Cream Pie
Pumpkin Pie
Apple Pie
Sweet Potato Pie
Huckleberry Pie
Cherry Pie

But there is one more significant Thanksgiving Day tradition the White House is maintaining – and that is personal phone calls from the President to troops deployed overseas on this holiday.

This morning President Obama called 10 U.S. service members to wish them a Happy Thanksgiving and to let them know how much the First lady and he are thankful for their service and sacrifice on behalf of the nation. The President called two service members in each of the five military branches. The calls to the two Army soldiers were both deployed in Afghanistan. The calls to Marines, Navy and Air Force troops were to one deployed in Iraq and one in Afghanistan. The calls to the Coast Guard went to one deployed in the Arabian Gulf and one in Iraq.

The commander in chief called to wish them Happy Thanksgiving and to let them know that he and first lady Michelle Obama are "truly thankful for their service and sacrifice on behalf of the nation," according to a statement Thursday from the White House.

No surprise visit to troops in Afghanistan and/or Iraq. No surprise visit to a military base in the US.

That is surprising given how much Obama seems to love flying on Air Force one.

George Washington's 1789 Thanksgiving Proclamation

Whereas it is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor; and Whereas both Houses of Congress have, by their joint committee, requested me to "recommend to the people of the United States a day of public thanksgiving and prayer, to be observed by acknowledging with grateful hearts the many and signal favors of Almighty God, especially by affording them an opportunity peaceably to establish a form of government for their safety and happiness:"

Now, therefore, I do recommend and assign Thursday, the 26th day of November next, to be devoted by the people of these States to the service of that great and glorious Being who is the beneficent author of all the good that was, that is, or that will be; that we may then all unite in rendering unto Him our sincere and humble thanks for His kind care and protection of the people of this country previous to their becoming a nation; for the signal and manifold mercies and the favorable interpositions of His providence in the course and conclusion of the late war; for the great degree of tranquility, union, and plenty which we have since enjoyed; for the peaceable and rational manner in which we have been enable to establish constitutions of government for our safety and happiness, and particularly the national one now lately instituted for the civil and religious liberty with which we are blessed, and the means we have of acquiring and diffusing useful knowledge; and, in general, for all the great and various favors which He has been pleased to confer upon us.

And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech Him to pardon our national and other transgressions; to enable us all, whether in public or private stations, to perform our several and relative duties properly and punctually; to render our National Government a blessing to all the people by constantly being a Government of wise, just, and constitutional laws, discreetly and faithfully executed and obeyed; to protect and guide all sovereigns and nations (especially such as have shown kindness to us), and to bless them with good governments, peace, and concord; to promote the knowledge and practice of true religion and virtue, and the increase of science among them and us; and, generally to grant unto all mankind such a degree of temporal prosperity as He alone knows to be best.

Given under my hand, at the city of New York, the 3d day of October, A.D. 1789.
George Washington
A special thanks for the men and women serving in our military so we can observe this day in freedom. Also, thanks to their families and friends.

Security breach at Obama’s 1st state dinner

Heard there were cuts to the Secret Service.
Tareq and Michaele Salahi appear to have taken a more direct route to fame by allegedly gatecrashing President Obama's first White House dinner on Tuesday night.

The US Secret Service is investigating how the couple, who its spokesman, Ed Donovan, confirmed were not on the guest list, managed to breach security and attend the 300-strong event.

Donovan said an initial finding indicated that a checkpoint did not follow proper procedures to ensure the two were on the list.

The Salahis, who were described by the Washington Post as "polo-playing socialites," are also reportedly auditioning for roles in the TV programme The Real Housewives of Washington".

Donovan said the couple did not pose any danger: "It's important to note that they went through all the security screenings and the magnetometer screening, just like all the other guests did."

He added that Obama and others under Secret Service protection had their usual guards with them at the dinner.

In an interview with CBS' "Early Show" in September, Michaele Salahi said, "President Obama has made it very accessible for anyone to visit the White House, so that's like a big thing right now."

A liberal blogger was making this security breach to be no big thing. Even if they did know some of the people at the party, the breach is a big deal.

And while guns may have been caught, what about a chemical weapon? We could have had another 9-11 attack.

And while I want President Obama to be a 1-term president and all his socialist policies to fail, his assasination would be a huge disaster for this country.

Planned Parenthood director quits

A preborn child fighting for it’s life changed her mind.
Abby Johnson quit her job. That simple act has become a national news story because Johnson, 29, was the director of a Planned Parenthood clinic in Texas who said she experienced a "change of heart" while participating in an abortion procedure.

"I had never seen an abortion happen on an ultrasound," she said. "My job during the procedure was to hold the probe on the woman's abdomen. I could see the whole profile of the baby 13 weeks head to foot. I could see the whole side profile. I could see the probe. I could see the baby try to move away from the probe."
Source: ABC News
My name is Johnny. I am eight months old. Mommy must love me because it is warm and safe here in her tummy. Mommy, can you feel my heartbeat? I can feel yours.

What’s that, Mommy? Something touched my leg. Someone is pulling on my leg.

Mommy, I am scared. Mommy, what is happening? Ouch, that hurts! Mommy, make the hurt go away.

I am trying to kick them to stop but why can’t I move my legs, Mommy? ….. And my arms, Mommy? ….. Can’t you hear my screams of terror, Mommy? …. No, mommy’s tummy is in the way. ….. Why, Mommy? Why??
I read mainly science fiction. A lot of stories deal with the preborn thoughts of humans and aliens. So when I first heard of the partial birth abortion procedure, the above story popped into my head.

What might a preborn child be thinking as it is aborted? Then you read Abby Johnson’s real life story above on how the preborn child tried to move away from the abortion suction probe.

Some facts about preborn children:
At 5.5 weeks, there is a heartbeat.
At 7 weeks, there is brain activity.
At 2 months, the child will respond (move) to a light touch.
If the preborn child reacts to a light touch, what about scissors being jammed into the back of the child’s skull?

I have said the mothers should be required to watch a 3D ultrasound and listen to a fetal heart monitor by themselves so they can watch their preborn son or daughter for 10-15 minutes before they could have an abortion.


No support for Obamacare

Majority of the people know it will raise costs and harm quality of HC.
Just 38% of voters now favor the health care plan proposed by President Obama and congressional Democrats. That’s the lowest level of support measured for the plan in nearly two dozen tracking polls conducted since June.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 56% now oppose the plan.

Half the survey was conducted before the Senate voted late Saturday to begin debate on its version of the legislation. Support for the plan was slightly lower in the half of the survey conducted after the Senate vote.

Only 16% now believe passage of the plan will lead to lower health care costs. Nearly four times as many (60%) believe the plan will increase health care costs. Most (54%) also believe passage of the plan will hurt the quality of care.

The more people hear about Obamacare the more they don’t like it.

Under the big top – Obama’s 1st state dinner

His “big” circus tent did include republicans.
It's being billed as the mother of all dinner parties as President Obama has invited 400 of his closest friends tonight to the first state dinner of his presidency at the White House.

You might ask where are 400 guests going to sit down and eat dinner in the White House. They aren't. A huge tent graces the White House's south lawn for tonight's event honoring the Prime Minister of India. White House Social Secretary Desiree Rogers has choreographed the whole thing.


The max for a state dinner inside the walls of the White House has been 140 but just the Indian delegation and top U.S. officials and their spouses would have totaled at least a half of that number.


But not too worry. The big tent on the south lawn will be not disappoint. "This will be as glamorous as anything inside the White House will be. This will be the most magnificent tent that you have ever been in your entire life," says a press aide to Secretary of State Clinton's tells Politics Daily columnist Lynn Sweet.

Obama wanted a “big” tent event where every group was included. Even a couple republicans were invited.

Kentucky Census Worker wasn’t hanged by rightwing nutbags

Will Democrat Underground admit their error?
Something horrible happened to Bill Sparkman, who worked part-time as a Census worker in rural southeastern Kentucky.

He was found dead. Tied to a tree. Preliminary tests show he died of asphyxiation.
A speculative rumor spread by the Associated Press that Sparkman may have been targeted because of his Census job — coupled with an unsubstantiated claim that “fed” was “scrawled” on his chest — was enough “evidence” for the nutroots to convict every outspoken conservative activist and advocate for limited government of a murder that has yet to be determined a murder.

Democratic Underground immediately posted a “Handy Guide to how Republicans and Fox News are responsible for Census worker being hanged,” where a DU user fumed:

We need to absolutely expose Glenn Beck, Michele Bachmann, Michelle Malkin, CNN’s Lou Dobbs, Michael Steele, Rush Limbaugh and the legion of others parroting right-wing lies for trumping up this nonsense and getting people to now commit murder in a hideous fashion.
Source: Michelle Malkin (9/25/2009)
A U.S. Census worker found dead in a secluded Clay County cemetery killed himself but tried to make the death look like a homicide, authorities have concluded.

Bill Sparkman, 51, of London, might have tried to cover the manner of his death to preserve payments under two life-insurance polices that he had taken out. The policies wouldn't pay off if Sparkman committed suicide, state police Capt. Lisa Rudzinski said.

"We believe it was an intentional act on his part to take his own life," said Rudzinski, who helped lead the investigation.

As Obamacare goes forward, Obama’s approval rating is at all time low

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Tuesday shows that 27% of the nation's voters Strongly Approve of the way that Barack Obama is performing his role as President. Forty-two percent (42%) Strongly Disapprove giving Obama a Presidential Approval Index rating of -15. This is the lowest Approval Index rating yet measured for President Obama.
Source: Rasmussen Reports
Even liberals are coming around to the fact that Obama is not fully qualified to be president. And his race has nothing to do with that statement.

Another subservient bow by Obama

He thinks we are not one of the greatest countries in the world.
Obama remarks on meeting the Premier:
Well, Mr. Premier, I want to thank you very much for your hospitality and this meeting. And I want to send my regards not only from my delegation but also from the American people.

Now, I can tell you that those members of my government who have had dealings with you before have always come away impressed with your knowledge and your wisdom.

We have had very productive discussions over the last two days. I think President Hu and myself agreed in our first meeting that we wanted to try to deepen the strategic partnership and relationship between the United States and China. A relationship that used to be focused just on economic and trade issues is now expanding to deal with a whole host of global issues in which U.S.-China cooperation is critical.

Obama has to apologize and kowtow to everybody since he wants us to be considered a third class country.

T-Shirt: "Pray for Obama - Psalm 109:8"

Only lefty loonies would think that means a death threat.
A crop of bumper stickers and T-shirts emblazoned with that call to prayer for the president have appeared for sale recently online through make-it-yourself outlets such as Zazzle.com and CafePress.com. And most of the "Pray for Obama" slogans are accompanied by a scripture reference: "Psalm 109:8."

In the New International Version translations, that verse reads;

May his days be few; may another take his place of leadership.

Aha! So, they're praying for Obama's tenure to be a short one. Fair enough. But what does that really mean?

A clue may be in the verses of the 109th Psalm that follow verse 8:
May his children be fatherless and his wife a widow.
Source: USA Today
But what does that really mean? It means that same as the t-shirt I have which says “1/20/2012 – End of an error”. We want Obama to be a one-term president.

Only the lefty loonies think it means that we want the death of Obama.


Obama: "I never know what I'm allowed to do."

He escapes from his presidential duties too soon.
President Barack Obama is getting used to leaving events before they end — even when he doesn't have to.

Obama on Monday mistakenly left a White House ceremony honoring two activists' work in Zimbabwe. After finishing his remarks in the East Room, he walked with first lady Michelle Obama into the grand hallway across the main floor of the Executive Mansion.

He returned a moment later, a bit sheepishly.

He said with a laugh, "I'm allowed to stay." Then he added, "I never know what I'm allowed to do."

Obama left when he had finished presenting the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Award. His war council met a short time later to discuss options for Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Obama loves being in front of groups of people where he can feel the “adoration”. He hates the mundane details of the day to day duties of being president. That is why Obama escapes to Oval Office every chance he gets even if it is just to personally go get burgers for his staff.

Obama: "I never know what I'm allowed to do." He is the president. Within the law, he can do anything he wants. If he wants to sit in the Senate gallery while they debate Obamacare, he can do that. If Mr Obama wanted to kiss Magodonga Mahlangu and Jenni Williams during the Robert F Kennedy Human Rights Award presentation, he can do that and he did. (Source)


Citizen Gore is the Citizen Kane of Global Warming

Lord Monckton says GW believers should be arrested for fraud.
Lord Monckton, who challenged Al Gore on man-made climate change and was rebuffed by a gaggle of peevish Democrats, wants the climate “scientists” caught red-handed fiddling with climate stats prosecuted.

“They are not merely bad scientists — they are crooks. And crooks who have perpetrated their crimes at the expense of British and U.S. taxpayers,” writes Monckton. “With Professor Fred Singer, who founded the U.S. Satellite Weather Service, I have reported them to the UK’s Information Commissioner, with a request that he investigate their offenses and, if thought fit, prosecute.”

The “arrogant fraudsters,” Monckton continues, “have refused, for years and years and years, to reveal their data and their computer program listings. Now we know why: As a revealing 15,000-line document from the computer division at the Climate Research Unit shows, the programs and data are a hopeless, tangled mess. In effect, the global temperature trends have simply been made up.”

The members of the Church of Global Warming are going nuts about this.
