THE AUDACITY OF SECULAR HUMANISM

Secular humanists displaced G-d and put mankind at the center of the universe.

They say we can create heaven on Earth if only we can pass the right regulations, and tax rates...

Written and enforced by the properly educated politicians, (preferably the exact right mix of races and genders -- LGBT included -- and raceless, genderless, faceless multicultural Ivy Leaguer bureaucrats - who always have the greater good in mind).

They say we can regulate the temperature of the entire Earth - as if it wasn't dynamic and was merely a cozy cabin we could keep at 72 degrees Fahrenheit.

They say we should ignore the faiths that are the foundation of our own civilization and appease the most radical adherents of alien faiths who seek to tear our civilization down - especially our foundations - and that this will make the world a better place and the future more likely filled with peace and harmony

They say that the fetus - that all pregnant mothers acknowledge is their baby - (yes all,  even those who choose abortion after all that's why they choose to abort!) - is not a human being and can be exterminated at will with no moral price to pay.

They say that the fruit of one's labor doesn't belong to those who labored for it --- whose dreams motivated the risk involved, whose hopes informed the effort involved, whose sweat and blood nurtured it and tended to it and realized it --- but to the group as a whole, and that it should be used, divided, taxed according to rules written by those properly educated multicultural bureaucrats (who always have the common good in mind).

They say that, given the vastness of the infinite universe, intelligent life is probably not a rare or special in any way and that given the age of the universe we humans are probably comparatively inferior by comparison to extra-terrestrial/extra-galactic beings - but they simultaneously hold that there is no such thing as a "primitive" culture here on earth because all human cultures are functionally and structurally and morally equal, (except for Western Judeo-Christians and capitalists who are evil).

And what type of heaven-on-earth do these secular humanists build?

Look at the USSR, Red China, Cuba, North Korea, Zimbabwe. These places embody HELL ON EARTH, not heaven-on-earth. The value system that made these places Hell is evil - as evil as any in all of human history - and almost as deadly. Only jihadism has killed more people than secular humanism. (The religious wars within the West killed far FAR fewer people than were killed by socialism or Islam - which are both utopianist ideologies, ideologies that attempt to create heaven-on-earth but actually create Hell.)

VIDEO: THE SARKOZY VERSUS ERDOGAN FIGHT GOES WAY BACK

ERDOGAN AND SARKOZY HAVE BEEN IN A PISSING FIGHT LATELY - EACH ACCUSING THE OTHER'S COUNTRY OF GENOCIDE.

THE FIGHT GOES WAY BACK:






 SARKOZY IS RIGHT; ERDOGAN AND CHARLIE ROSE ARE WRONG.

 AND..... AS I HAVE LONG ARGUED: TURKEY SHOULD BE THROWN OUT OF NATO.

TURKEY IS NOW NA FOE OF EUROPE AND ISRAEL AND CLOSER TO IRAN AND RUSSIA THAN THE USA.

IT'S TIME WE ACCEPTED THAT TURKEY IS PART OF THE ISLAMIC WORLD AND NOT THE WEST AND DEALT WITH THEM ACCORDINGLY.

DESPITE MONTI'S AUSTERITY BUDGET AND THE ECB BAILOUT, ITALY AND THE EURO STILL LIKELY TO FAIL


Prime Minister Mario Monti’s market honeymoon is ending as Italian bond yields approaching 7 percent signal mounting concern his government may struggle to sell 440 billion euros ($574 billion) of debt next year. 
Monti took just five weeks in office to push through a 30 billion-euro emergency budget package aimed at taming surging borrowing costs. Investors reacted to the plan’s final approval by the Senate Thursday by driving up the yield on Italy’s 10-year benchmark bond by 12 basis points to 6.91 percent, close to the 7 percent level that prompted Greece, Ireland and Portugal to seek bailouts. It was at 6.94 percent at 10:13 a.m. in Rome. 
“The Monti effect has now also been priced in and I think there is a lot of room for disappointment next year,” said Lex Van Dam, who manages $500 million in assets at Hampstead Capital LLC in London.
THE EURO IS FAR FROM SAVED AND THE EU IS FAR FROM SECURE.

2012 WILL BE THE YEAR BOTH FADE AWAY.

REAGAN'S CHRISTMAS MESSAGE, 1981....






Nancy and I are very happy to send our warmest greetings and best wishes to all those who are celebrating Christmas. We join with Americans everywhere in recognizing the sense of renewed hope and comfort this joyous season brings to our nation and the world. 


The Nativity story of nearly twenty centuries ago is known by all faiths as a hymn to the brotherhood of man. For Christians, it is the fulfillment of age-old prophecies and the reaffirmation of God's great love for all of us. 


Through a generous Heavenly Father's gift of His Son, hope and compassion entered a world weary with fear and despair and changed it for all time. On Christmas, we celebrate the birth of Christ with prayer, feasting, and great merriment. But, most of all, we experience it in our hearts. 


For, more than just a day, Christmas is a state of mind. It is found throughout the year whenever faith overcomes doubt, hope conquers despair, and love triumphs over hate. It is present when men of any creed bring love and understanding to the hearts of their fellow man. The feeling is seen in the wondrous faces of children and in the hopeful eyes of the aged. It overflows the hearts of cheerful givers and the souls of the caring. And it is reflected in the brilliant colors, joyful sounds, and beauty of the winter season. 


Let us resolve to honor this spirit of Christmas and strive to keep it throughout the year. 


Nancy and I ask you to join us in a prayer that prudence, wisdom, and understanding might descend on the people of all nations' so that during the year ahead we may realize an ancient and wondrous dream: "peace on earth, goodwill toward men." RONALD REAGAN

UK COURT ORDERS BABY ADOPTED TO PREVENT "HONOR" MURDER

Some unique sanity displayed in Britain (via The American Thinker):
A baby girl born out of wedlock must be adopted to save her from the risk of being slaughtered in an "honor killing," a court ruled yesterday.

If the unmarried Muslim woman's father found out about the child, he would feel such "unimaginable shame" he could unleash a vengeful bloodbath by killing the baby and his whole family, three senior judges agreed.

So they made the extraordinary order to have the one-year-old girl - known as Baby Q - adopted for her own safety.

She will now grow up with adoptive parents and, when she is older, they will explain to her why she could not have been brought up by her biological parents.

It is believed to be the first time an English court has ordered an adoption to prevent a murder.
And it's a very lucky thing the court had the sense to make this ruling.

FASCINATING GLOBAL POLL RESULTS: EUROPE & FRANCE THE GLOOMIEST PLACES ON EARTH, AND AFRICA - ON THE WHOLE - THE MOST OPTIMISTIC

YOU'D THINK THAT FRANCE WOULD BE HAPPIER AND THE AFRICANS GLOOMIER BUT THE OPPOSITE IS TRUE:
The "End of Year" survey by Gallup International of 51 countries found that France beat second placed Ireland and third placed Austria for the dubious recognition as most pessimistic, economically-speaking.  
Its score of negative 79, a drop of 20 points from last year, was the lowest the poll has recorded since 1978. 
"Even in 1978, after the second oil crisis that called into question an entire economic system, the French have never shown themselves as pessimistic as today," said the poll.  
"Europe leads in despair, followed by North America," it said. "The rest of the world, lead by Africa, remains mostly optimistic." 
... Among a list of 51 countries, Nigeria was found to be the most optimistic country, when considering economic prosperity, followed by Vietnam and Ghana.
SO WHY DO LEFTISTS WANT US TO BE MORE LIKE FRANCE AND EUROPE?!?

AND WHY ARE THEY ALWAYS HOLDING UP AFRICA AS A PLACE OF DESPAIR?


I THINK THE REASON AFFLUENT EUROPE IS FULL OF DESPAIR AND IMPOVERISHED AFRICA IS FILLED WITH HOPEFULNESS IS NOT THE UNDERLYING ECONOMIC SITUATION, BUT THE DIVERGENT EXPECTATIONS OF THE PEOPLE IN EACH CONTINENT:

  • AFRICAN'S EXPECT VERY LITTLE AND WHEN THEY GET A LITTLE MORE THEN THEY HAVE IN THE PAST THEY ARE HAPPY.


  • EUROPEANS HAVE LONG HAD DEEPLY UNREALISTIC EXPECTATIONS FOR THEIR SOCIALIST UTOPIA AND AS IT BEGINS TO DELIVER LESS (AND AS IT BECOMES EVER MORE APPARENT THAT IT WILL COLLAPSE) THEY ARE EFFIN' FREAKIN' OUT!

ATTACKS ON POLITICIANS AND PUNDITS WHO WERE ONCE MORE LIBERAL THAN THEY ARE NOW IS A COLOSSAL MISTAKE FOR THE RIGHT

CONSERVATIVES - LIKE THE GREAT ONE MARK LEVIN - SHOULD STOP ATTACKING POLITICIANS LIKE MITT ROMNEY AND PUNDITS LIKE CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER BECAUSE THEY WERE ONCE MORE LIBERAL THAN THEY ARE NOW.


ROMNEY AND KRAUTHAMMER AREN'T ANY LESS CONSERVATIVE NOW BECAUSE THEY WERE ONCE BOTH MORE LIBERAL.


AND LEVIN ISN'T ANY SMARTER NOW BECAUSE HE WAS A CONSERVATIVE EARLIER THAN ROMNEY AND KRAUTHAMMER.


YES: ROMNEY WAS ONCE PRO-CHOICE AND KRAUTHAMMER WORKED FOR MONDALE.


WELL, REAGAN ONCE SUPPORTED FDR!


SO I THINK FOLKS LIKE LEVIN SHOULD JUST CRITICIZE THESE POLITICIANS AND PUNDITS FOR WHERE THEY ARE TODAY.


BUT THERE'S AN EVEN MORE IMPORTANT REASON FOLKS LIKE LEVIN SHOULD CHILL OUT:
  • WE ARE COMING UP TO AN INCREDIBLY PIVOTAL  ELECTION IN 2012, AND IF WE'RE GOING TO WIN WE NEED TO CONVINCE A LOT OF POTENTIAL VOTERS WHO ARE ON THE FENCE AND MAYBE HAVE NEVER VOTED GOP, THAT IT'S OKAY TO MOVE FROM LEFT TO RIGHT.
  • ATTACKING PEOPLE WHO HAVE DONE THAT OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS WILL NOT MAKE THESE SWING VOTERS MORE LIKELY TO FEEL COMFORTABLE MOVING TO THE RIGHT.
  • THE CONSERVATIVE MOVEMENT SHOULD WELCOME CONVERTS AND NOT TREAT THEM LIKE SECOND CLASS CITIZENS.
AND ANOTHER THING:


ATTACKING ROMNEY BECAUSE HE WAS ONCE MORE LIBERAL THAN HE IS NOW HAS ANOTHER BAD EFFECT ON 2012:


IT WILL DEPRESS TURNOUT IF ROMNEY WINS THE NOMINATION - AND THEREBY HELP OBAMA.


SO LET'S REMEMBER REAGAN'S 11TH COMMANDMENT.

UH-OH: UNREST AND VIOLENCE SPREADING IN CHINA


Police fired tear gas to break up demonstrations yesterday against a proposed power plant in a southern China town, where protests have escalated into clashes with police this week and officials tried to calm tempers by suspending the project. 
Riot police were out in force and blocked entrances to Haimen, aiming tear gas canisters at lines of protesters on motorbikes to quell the latest outbreak of unrest in the southern province of Guangdong, an economic powerhouse. 
Haimen, a coastal town of 120,000 people, is about 130km (81 miles) east of Wukan, where a 10-day siege of villagers protesting against a “land grab” ended on Wednesday after the provincial government brokered a deal. 
Protests in China have become relatively common over corruption, pollution, wages and land grabs that local-level officials justify in the name of development. Chinese experts put the number of “mass incidents”, as such protests are known, at about 90,000 a year in recent years.
IT WILL SOON BE GETTING MUCH WORSE. AND THEY KNOW IT. STAY TUNED...

BREAKING: UNESCO STOPS FUNDING CHILDREN'S PALESTINIAN TEEN MAGAZINE THAT PROMTOED GENOCIDE OF JEWS AND PRAISED HITLER

BREAKING: UNESCO STOPS FUNDING CHILDREN'S PALESTINIAN TEEN MAGAZINE:

Zayzafouna, a magazine which supposedly promotes democracy and tolerance, published an article by a ten-year-old Palestinian girl who said that in her dreams, Hitler told her, “Yes. I killed them [the Jews] so you would all know that they are a nation who spreads destruction all over the world.” The article was brought to the public's attention by Palestinian Media Watch. 
A letter from the office of UNESCO's Director-General read:
"UNESCO’s attention has been drawn to the February 2011 issue of the Palestinian children’s magazine Zayzafouna. This magazine is published by an NGO of the same name under the patronage of the Palestinian National Commission for UNESCO, which is the national body set up by the Palestinian Authority to facilitate its work with the Organization. The February issue features a story written by a 10-year-old girl in which Hitler is quoted by her as stating that he “killed [the Jews] so you would all know that they are a nation who wreak havoc on Earth”. While UNESCO upholds freedom of expression as an integral part of its mandate, the inclusion in this publication of a statement that may be interpreted as an apology of the holocaust is contrary to UNESCO’s constitutional mandate and values. It is totally unacceptable. 
 ... UNESCO is shocked and dismayed by the content of the February issue, and has requested more detailed information and clarification from the editors of the magazine and to Palestinian Authority.  
UNESCO strongly deplores and condemns the reproduction of such inflammatory statements in a magazine associated with UNESCO’s name and mission and will not provide any further support to the publication in question.
GOOD.

AS EXPECTED: 3RD QUARTER GDP GREW MUCH SLOWER THAN PREVIOUSLY REPORTED - NOT 2.5%, BUT 1.8%!REPORTED


The US economy grew at a slower pace than previously estimated in the three months to the end of September. 
Revised figures from the US Commerce Department show gross domestic product grew at an annual pace of 1.8% in the period, down from the previous estimate of 2% and first estimate of 2.5%. 
The downward revision was largely due to lower consumer expenditure than previously thought.
THESE DOWNWARD REVISIONS ARE AS "UNEXPECTED" -  BY CONSERVATIVES AT LEAST - AS THE SUN'S RISING TOMORROW.

I'M AS TIRED OF THIS GAME AS I AM THE ONE THE EU APPARATCHIKS ARE PLAYING IN EUROPE WITH REGARD TO "SAVING" THE EURO EVERY WEEK.

Most women in In Pakistan's Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province have always kept their hair covered in public. 
But increasingly many of them, especially young girls, can be seen wearing the niqab or full-face veil. 
In this mainly conservative region, social pressure is often cited as the force behind the trend, but some women insist it is their own choice. 
There is also a view that current fashion trends could be playing a role.
THE LEFT WOULD HAVE YOU BELIEVE IT'S A CHOICE. YEAH, SURE: BEING A SLAVE OR TREATED LIKE CHATTEL IS A CHOICE!

Thank G-d you cannot force people to ear broccoli - yet, even if that's all you serve them!
The Los Angeles Unified School District broke new ground earlier this year when it started phasing out junk food and offering students healthful new fare. The decision by L.A. Unified, one of the largest districts in the nation, to swap out corn dogs and chocolate milk for quinoa salads and vegetarian curries was seen as a move that might inspire other districts across the country to do the same. 
But this week The Los Angeles Times reports that the revamped school menus have been less than popular. 
Students have been throwing away meals and bringing their own junk food to school, forcing the district to bring back some of the foods it worked so hard to replace...
If the left had its way, then they'd force feed us broccoli the way their legacy media force feeds us lies!

DRUDGE TODAY:


PLO deal means the peace process is officially dead‏


Israel slammed the Palestinian deal paving the way for Hamas to join the PLO on Thursday, with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's spokesman Mark Regev saying that if Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas "embraces Hamas, if he walks toward Hamas, he is walking away from peace." 
Leaders of several Palestinian groups, including Hamas and Fatah, agreed Thursday to “activate and reconstruct” the PLO so as to allow other non-member parties to join the organization. 
Palestinians hailed the agreement as an “historic event” that would mark the beginning of a new era for the Palestinian issue.
It's a new era all right: Hamas hasn't moderated their stand - and neither has Islamic Jihad, which is also included in the deal; ergo: the so-called peace process is dead.

New Particle Found At Large Hadron, And It's a Beauty ... and an Anti-Beauty

From BBC:
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) on the Franco-Swiss border has made its first clear observation of a new particle since opening in 2009. 
It is called Chi_b (3P) and will help scientists understand better the forces that hold matter together. 
The as-yet unpublished discovery is reported on the Arxiv pre-print server. 
The LHC is exploring some of the fundamental questions in "big physics" by colliding proton particles together in a huge underground facility. 
Detail in the sub-atomic wreckage from these impacts is expected to yield new information about the way the Universe is constructed. 

The Chi_b (3P) is a more excited state of Chi particles already seen in previous collision experiments, explained Prof Roger Jones, who works on the Atlas detector at the LHC.

"The new particle is made up of a 'beauty quark' and a 'beauty anti-quark', which are then bound together," he told BBC News.

"People have thought this more excited state should exist for years but nobody has managed to see it until now.
Sexy.

Hubble observations revealed that some substances on Pluto's surface are absorbing more ultraviolet light than expected. The compounds in question may well be organics, possibly complex hydrocarbons or nitrogen-containing molecules, researchers said. 
The dwarf planet Pluto is known to harbor ices of methane, carbon monoxide and nitrogen on its surface. The ultraviolet-absorbing chemical species may have been produced when sunlight or super-speedy subatomic particles known as cosmic rays interacted with these ices, researchers said.

GUARANTEED NOT HALAL: LUISA RANIERI

REMEMBER: THE CRUSADES WERE THE REAL WORLD WAR #1 - AND THEY WERE A COUNTER-ATTACK AGAINST THE INVASION BY THE MUSLIMS:
The First Crusade (1096–1099) was a military expedition by Western Christianity to regain the Holy Lands taken in the Muslim conquest of the Levant, ultimately resulting in the recapture of Jerusalem. It was launched on 27 November 1095 by Pope Urban II with the primary goal of responding to an appeal from Byzantine Emperor Alexios I Komnenos, who requested that western volunteers come to his aid and help to repel the invading Seljuq Turks from Anatolia. An additional goal soon became the principal objective—the Christian reconquest of the sacred city of Jerusalem and the Holy Land and the freeing of the Eastern Christians from Islamic rule.
WE ARE CURRENTLY STILL FIGHTING THIS WAR AGAINST ISLAMO-MISOGYNISTS WHO WOULD NEVER ALLOW THIS:

A department investigation concluded that Countrywide had charged higher fees and rates to more than 200,000 minority borrowers across the country than to white borrowers who posed the same credit risk.

The pattern and practice covered the years 2004 to 2008, before Countrywide was acquired by Bank of America.

UH-OH: AFTER ONE DAY'S RESPITE, EUROPE SLIPS BACK AGAIN


European stocks and the euro initially gained, and bond yields fell for euro-zone governments like Spain and Italy that had been under pressure of late. But by afternoon, equities markets were down slightly and borrowing costs for Spain and Italy rose again. 
In its role as lender of last resort to banks, the E.C.B. allocated 489.2 billion euros, or $644 billion, to 523 institutions, through what are known as long-term repurchasing operations. That was well above the roughly €300 billion average estimate of analysts polled by Reuters and Bloomberg News, though estimates had been widely divergent.
DSK RECENTLY SAID THE EU HAS WEEKS TO SAVE THE EURO AND THE PRESENT DEAL WILL TAKES MONTHS.

NIGEL FARAGE: THE IMF IS CONSTRUCTING A EUROPRISON

SICKENING ANTISEMITISM FROM THE UNSC AND BRITAIN, FRANCE, PORTUGAL AND GERMANY

JPOST: Britain, France, Germany and Portugal say settler violence damaging prospects of renewed peace talk
Representatives of Britain, France, Germany and Portugal said Fernandez-Taranco's briefing made clear to the 15-nation council that Israeli settlement activity was undermining attempts to restart stalled peace talks with the Palestinians. 
"One of the themes that emerged was the severely damaging effect that increased settlement construction and settler violence is having on the ground and on the prospects of a return to negotiations," the four European Union council members said in a joint statement. 
"Israel's continuing announcements to accelerate the construction of settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, including east Jerusalem, send a devastating message," said the statement, which was read to reporters by British Ambassador Mark Lyall Grant.
THEY NEVER CRITICIZE HAMAS OR HIZBALLAH THIS HARSHLY DESPITE MORE THAN 1000 UNPROVOKED ROCKET ATTACKS MOSTLY FROM GAZA. BUT ALSO FROM LEBANON.

THESE SICK ANTISEMITIC BASTARDS IN BRITAIN, FRANCE, PORTUGAL  AND GERMAN DESERVE WORSE THEN THE ECONOMIC CRASH THAT IS SURELY COMING.

AND THEY WILL GET IT.

JIHADOTERROR IS TERROR.


WHEN YOU CONDEMN ISRAEL FOR BUILDING HOMES AND ARE SILENT WHEN JIHADISTS COMMIT TERROR, THEN YOU ARE AIDING AND ABETTING JIHDOTERROR.

UPDATE:
All the regional and political groupings on the UN Security Council have criticised Israeli settlement activities in the occupied Palestinian territories, in a highly unusual move. 
The envoys said continued settlement building threatened chances of a future Palestinian state. 
They also expressed dismay at rising settler violence.
THESE JIHADOTERROR ENABLERS WILL GET WHAT THEY DESERVE FOR SUPPORTING JIHADOTERROR AND CURSING ISRAEL.

CHRISTIANITY SHRINKING IN EUROPE AND MIDDLE EAST; GROWING IN ASIA AND AFRICA


A new analysis spells out how the Christian population is shrinking in Europe, while growing dramatically in Africa and elsewhere. 
Europe is now home to about a quarter of the world's Christians, compared to two-thirds a century ago. About one-quarter of the Christian population is now found in sub-Saharan Africa. More than a third is in the Americas. 
Overall, Christians remain the largest religious group in the world, with nearly 2.2 billion people. Muslims are the second-largest group, with about 1.5 billion adherents. 
The smallest concentration of Christians is found in the region where the faith began, the Mideast and North Africa, where Christians are only about 4 percent of the population.
GEE... I WONDER WHY SO MANY CHRISTIANS LEFT THE MIDDLE EAST?

COULD IT BE ISLAMISM? YES.

GEE... I WONDER WHY SO MANY EUROPEANS HAVE LEFT THE FAITH?

COULD IT BE POSTMODERN LEFTISM? YES.

We believe that we have reached the Brandeis tipping point. It would be bad for our democracy if 1-percenters started making 40 or 50 times as much as the median American. 
Enough is enough. Congress should reform our tax law to put the brakes on further inequality. Specifically, we propose an automatic extra tax on the income of the top 1 percent of earners — a tax that would limit the after-tax incomes of this club to 36 times the median household income.
Commies. 


There is no moral reason people shouldn't be able to keep what they EARN. Neither the state or any other person or any other body has the right to steal the fruits of another person's labor.


If Sergey Brin or Bill Gates a or Babe Ruth EARNS more, then he has a right to keep it.


It's amazing that the NYTIMES has stooped so low and lurched so far to the left that they don't see this for what it is: 


STALINISTIC/MUGABESQUE/CASTROISTIC COMMUNISM.


I COMPLETELY DEBUNKED THE WHOLE LEFT-WING INCOME INEQUALITY PREMISE HERE. LAST WEEK.

THE NYTIMES IS OBVIOUSLY ROLLING THIS OUT IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE LEFT'S CLASS WARFARE STRATEGY FOR OBAMA'S RE-ELECT CAMPAIGN.

UPDATE:  MORE PROOF THAT IT'S A COORDINATED EFFORT BY THE LEGACY MEDIA: BROKAW TODAY SAID INCREASING INCOME INEQUALITY MIGHT LEAD TO CLASS WAR.

Ron Paul: race-baiting profiteer; should be disqualified from presidential race

Ron Paul's vile newsletters of past decades are becoming a topic for discussion now, and are definitely a cause for concern. Before I get around to that, Phillip Klein has warned why a vote for Ron Paul in Iowa could end up sending the wrong message, and not what some people apparently desperate for better economy think would be sent. Here, the problem in focus is Paul's noxious views on Israel (via Betsy's Page):
...the reality is that on numerous occasions, Paul has crossed the line from merely saying America should stay out of all conflicts, to actively attacking Israel and taking the Palestinians' side -- even when the non-interventionists should theoretically remain silent.

Nearly three years ago, Israel launched a counterattack on Palestinian terrorists in Gaza who had been firing thousands of rockets at Israeli civilians. In early January 2009, Paul released a web video in which he charged that Israel was launching a "pre-emptive war," that Palestinians were living in a "concentration camp" and that they merely had "a few small missiles."

He then repeated this claim on Press TV -- the state-owned propaganda channel of Iran's Islamist government. "To me, I look at it like a concentration camp, and people are making homemade bombs," he said of the situation in Gaza, adding sarcastically, "like they're they aggressors?"

Not only did Paul inaccurately portray Israel as the aggressor, and ignore the Israeli victims of Palestinian terrorist attacks, but he also played into the global propaganda campaign to delegitimize Israel. Israel's enemies think that Jews have exploited global sympathy for the Holocaust, so they routinely liken Israelis to Nazis with phrases like "concentration camp."
Well, so much for any defense he might mount about being the "only" member of Congress to defend Israel's attack on Iraq's own nuclear development sites in 1981. Even just recently, he's engaged in some most despicable acts. Klein mentions that Erick Erikson of Red State and Dean Clancy of Freedom Works are 2 more names besides Glenn Beck who are risking throwing away their merits by recommending we vote for Paul, and contradicting Benjamin Franklin's argument that those who seek personal liberty for personal safety deserve neither liberty nor safety, and as a result, I'm not going to waste time on them anymore.

Now, here's where you can find some leading examples of Paul's racist newsletters mainly from the late 80s-early 90s, which, as the evidence presented points out, he both wrote and edited. Here's a most lurid sample of his take on blacks, plus a sample scan:
"We don’t think a child of 13 should be held responsible as a man of 23. That’s true for most people, but black males age 13 who have been raised on the streets and who have joined criminal gangs are as big, strong, tough, scary and culpable as any adult and should be treated as such."

“Opinion polls consistently show that only about 5 percent of blacks have sensible political opinions,”

“I think we can safely assume that 95 percent of the black males in that city are semi-criminal or entirely criminal,”

“we are constantly told that it is evil to be afraid of black men, it is hardly irrational.”
See more at the Houston Chronicle. This stuff absolutely make me shudder. He also seems to think that the public isn't concerned about white offenders, or that there's never been any laws that enable juvenile offenders of all backgrounds to be tried as adults. As it so happens, there have been such laws as early as the 1950s.

James Kirchick at the Weekly Standard (via Atlas Shrugs) has more about this, including how he may have made a whole business off of his abominations:
...a subsequent report by Reason found that Ron Paul & Associates, the defunct company that published the newsletters and which counted Paul and his wife as officers, reported an income of nearly $1 million in 1993 alone. If this figure is reliable, Paul must have earned multiple millions of dollars over the two decades plus of the newsletters’ existence. It is incredible that he had less than an active interest in what was being printed as part of a subscription newsletter enterprise that earned him and his family millions of dollars. Ed Crane, the president of the Cato Institute, said Paul told him that “his best source of congressional campaign donations was the mailing list for the Spotlight, the conspiracy-mongering, anti-Semitic tabloid run by the Holocaust denier Willis Carto.”

This sordid history would not bear repeating but for the fact that the media love to portray Paul as a truth-telling, antiwar Republican standing up to the “hawkish” conservative establishment. Otherwise, the newsletters, and Paul’s continued failure to name their author, would be mentioned in every story about him, and he would be relegated to the fringe where he belongs. But Paul has escaped the sort of media scrutiny that would bury other political figures. A December 15 profile of Paul in the Washington Post, for instance, affectionately described his love of gardening and The Sound of Music and judged that “world events have conspired to make him look increasingly on point”—all without any mention of the newsletter controversy. Though present at nearly every Republican debate, he has yet to be asked about the newsletters. Had Paul’s persona and views changed significantly since 2008, this oversight might be understandable. But he continues to say and do things suggesting that, far from disowning the statements he has claimed “do not represent what I believe or have ever believed,” he still believes them.
I can wager a good guess why the MSM may not be covering his horrific writings, which almost make Stephen King's thrillers seem tame by contrast: no doubt some of them are concealing this in hopes he'll at least score a minor victory in Iowa, which alone could give them the perfect opportunity to attack the conservative movement for being what they've been working so hard to prove they're not - racist. This is exactly why, IMO, Paul should be expelled from the competition altogether, since the GOP can ill-afford the kind of tarnish he could end up giving their image.

As Bryan Preston tells in his assessment of the latest GOP debate, this was Paul's worst performance to date:
Mitt Romney earns a laugh line for mocking President Obama’s “pretty please, Iran, return our stealth drone!” Pounding Obama’s foreign policy comes easy for anyone on the stage but Ron Paul, and Romney does well here. Bachmann follows up by accusing Obama of intentionally attempting to lose the peace our troops have won in Iraq, and then rips into Ron Paul’s ideas on security, earning applause and boos simultaneously. Bachmann forces Paul to admit that he doesn’t want Iran to have nuclear weapons. I’m not sure I’ve heard him say that before. He actually seemed to sense that he was losing the argument. And then he questioned why we were flying a drone over Iran at all. Perhaps, to keep an eye on their nuclear program because we can’t trust the UN that Paul keeps referring to? Paul flew his freak flag more brightly than he has in any previous debate, and lost a heated battle of wits and facts to Michele Bachmann. He ended the exchange in a long-winded, rather intemperate, babble about when he was drafted and how we must declare war before taking any military action. This was by far Paul’s worst moment of any debate, any time he has run. And it was one of Bachmann’s best. Paul should experience a slide back down the polls after tonight. A question about his beliefs concerning 9-11 could have sunk Paul for good, but it went unasked.
We have to hope that better members of the GOP will bring up the subject of Paul's newsletters, because the conservative public in particular has the right to know that this terrible man is someone who could very easily blacken the image of the right and cause considerable division that could jeopardize chances needed to unseat Obama. A responsible leadership would see to it that Paul is expelled from the race, since at this point it would only cause further embarrassment. The newsletters should provide all the ammo needed for anyone to make a point about why he's not what his apologists would want people to think he is. Calling for better economy is a positive idea, but politicians shouldn't be judged on that platform alone. Public safety has to take some importance beforehand, and judging from Paul's opposition to the Patriot Act, that's why he can't be trusted on domestic security issues either.

UNREAL: PROOF OBAMA'S NOAA APPOINTEES ARE CHANGING DATA TO PROVE GLOBAL WARMING

Jane Lubchenco and her team are changing historical temperature records each and every month (note how they have "warmed" May 2008 since the NOAA report of December 2008) - even changing the historical record back to the very beginning, the January 1880 temperature record.

THE MARONITES OF ISRAEL


Maronites wish to regain ancestral lands in Galilee  
Community also works to preserve its heritage, teach youth its traditional language of Aramaic.
Today the Maronite Church is subject to the authority of the Roman Catholic Church and its adherents number a little over 3 million, including more than 1 million in Lebanon, where they make up nearly a quarter of the population, and were a majority late into the second half of the 20th century. 
... the Maronites of Jish view themselves as a distinct ethno-religious group, apparently seeing themselves as neither Arab nor Palestinian, rather as Aramaic or Maronite citizens of Israel. 
...  the Maronites of the Galilee are a population in flux, cut off from their brethren in neighboring countries. They continue their assimilation into Israeli society while trying to ensure that their customs carry on into the next generation. Those in Jish are also waging an ongoing battle with authorities to regain land near Kibbutz Bar’am, the one-time location of the Maronite village of Kafr Bir’am. Today, around half of the Maronite residents of Jish trace their heritage to Kafr Bir’am, residents say. 
... According to Jish native Dr. Elias A. Suleiman, a lecturer from Bar-Ilan University’s Department of Middle Eastern Studies and supervisor of Jish’s schools, the majority of Maronites “reject Arab identity in favor of a distinct Maronite one... They live as citizens and will continue to live here, and if the Palestinians establish their state, no Maronite from Israel will move to live there.”
FASCINATING. MORE PROOF THAT THE HOLY LAND IS TRULY NOT ARABIAN IN CHARACTER BUT JEWISH AND ARAMAIC.

JEWS AND CHRISTIANS BOTH LIVED IN THE HOLY LAND UNDER ROMAN-PAGAN OCCUPATION.

THEN, THE HOLY LAND WAS OCCUPIED BY MUSLIMS - AND TURKS.

ONLY AFTER WW1 - ABOUT A THOUSAND YEARS LATER - WAS TURKISH AND MUSLIM OCCUPATION ENDED.

AND ONLY WHEN THE STATE OF ISRAEL WAS DECLARED DID THE ANCIENT SERIES OF OCCUPATIONS END.

FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE ROMANS CONQUERED THE KINGDOM OF ISRAEL, ISRAEL WAS AND REMAINS SELF-RULED AND NOT OCCUPIED.

(EXCEPT FOR THE PLACES THE ARABS AND THE LEFT CALL OCCUPIED - AS IF THEY WERE OCCUPIED BY JEWS! HAH!)

PEACE IS VALUABLE AND CONCESSIONS FOR PEACE ARE GOOD - BUT ONLY IF THEY BRING PEACE.

SO FAR, EVERY SINGLE CONCESSION ISRAEL HAS MADE HAS BEEN MET WITH ONLY MORE WAR.

LAND FOR PEACE - AS IT HAS PLAYED OUT SO FAR - IS AN UTTER FAILURE, A FARCE - A ONE-WAY TICKET TO ISRAEL'S ERADICATION.

I SAY: NOT ONE MORE INCH UNTIL AFTER ALL THE ARABS UNCONDITIONALLY ACCEPT ISRAEL'S EXISTENCE.


PEACE FIRST, THEN LAND DEALS.


AND LET'S HELP THE MARONITES, TOO. BUT NOT JUST IN ISRAEL: IN LEBANON AND SYRIA!

OBAMA'S DELUSIONS OF GRANDEUR

VIDEO: OBAMA IS A HISTORICALLY CHALLENGED EGOMANIAC AND HAS NO CLUE THAT HIS PRESIDENCY HAS BEEN A DANGEROUS FAILURE.

HIS PALS IN THE LEGACY MEDIA WANT TO HIDE THIS FACT, BUT THEY CAN'T: THE TRUTH IS OUT!

FOR THE LEFT, ANAL SEX TRUMPS PATRIOTISM

THE LEFT HAS A QUEER WAY OF LOOKING AT THINGS.

CHIEF RABBI: ULTRA-ORTHODOX CANNOT FORCE THEIR VIEWS ON OTHERS

JPOST:
Ultra-Orthodox have no right to force bus segregation, says Metzger; PM warns fringe group must not be allowed to threaten coexistence; Livni praises woman who refused haredi passengers' demands to move to back of bus. 
Ashkenazi Chief Rabbi Yona Metzger criticized on Sunday the segregation of men and women on public transportation, in an interview with Army Radio.  
According to Metzger, the haredi community does not have the right to impose its practices on public bus lines. "If we want there to be segregation, it would be legitimate for us to establish our own transportation company," he explained.  
"We [the ultra-Orthodox] don't have the authority to force our ideas on others," he continued. "This state does not belong to the haredi community."
ISLAMOTOPIANS DON'T BELIEVE THIS; IN FACT, THEY BELIEVE THEY CAN FORCE THEIR EVIL BELIEFS ON EVERYONE INCLUDING NON-MUSLIMS.

COERCION CANNOT EVER LEAD TO TRUE REPENTANCE OR TRUE CONVERSION; THESE MUST SPRING FROM WITHIN.

WAHHABISTS AND SALAFISTS AND QTUBISTS AND OTHER FUNDAMENTALIST MUSLIM SECTS ROUTINELY USE INTIMIDATION, VIOLENCE AND TERROR ON THEIR OWN - THE WOMEN - AND AGAINST OTHER MUSLIMS SECTS ALL THE FREAKING TIME.

THIS TELLS YOU EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT WHAT MAKES ISLAM DIFFERENT - AND A FALSE PATH.

THE HAREDI IN ISRAEL OUGHT TO BE CAREFUL THEY DON'T STRAY DOWN THIS PATH.

IT ISN'T RIGHT - OR NECESSARY.  CHABADNIKS KNOW THIS: THEY ARE AMONG THE SWEETEST MOST ACCOMMODATING AND WELCOMING PEOPLE I HAVE EVER MET. THEY ENCOURAGE GREATER ADHERENCE TO THE PRECEPTS AND LAWS OF JUDAISML THEY DON'T USE COERCION; THEY USE LOVE.

BESIDES, G-D HAS MUCH MORE POWERFUL COERCIVE TOOLS AT HIS DISPOSAL THAN MANKIND.

IF G-D WANTED TO USE THEM, THEN HE WOULD - BUT G-D WANTS US TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT WAY, TO USE OUR FREE WILL TO DO RIGHT AND LIVE TRUE LIVES WITH LOVE AND WISDOM.

IN THIS SENSE, ULTRA-ORTHODOXICAL FUNDAMENTALISTS OFFEND G-D. IMHO.

OUR DISGRACEFUL CONGRESSIONAL LEADERSHIP

These asses are not leaders in any sense of the word (hat tip to Bunkerville):




Money quote:
“I rise in strong support of this bill. I urge my colleagues to support this piece of legislation. None of them have read it. Not one of us has read every page in this bill,” Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-MD) said on the House floor about the $1 trillion spending bill that would prevent a government shutdown.
They, including members of the GOP, were in a hurry to head out for Christmas vacation.

At the same time, many of us here in America are having a very lean Christmas as we groan under the burden of big government!

Vaclav Havel R.I.P.

He understood the shortcomings of socialism. RIP.


NYTIMES:
“Truth and love must prevail over lies and hatred,” He famously said. It became his revolutionary motto which he said he strove to live by.
RIGHT ON!
