HAVE THE IRANIANS INADVERTENTLY TIPPED US OFF THAT THEY ARE JUST WEEKS AWAY FROM HAVING A BOMB?

The round of nuclear talks between the six major world powers and Iran ended on Saturday in Istanbul without a significant breakthrough but with an agreement to reconvene next month. 

Sources close to the talks told Haaretz that the Iranians are demanding an American and European commitment not to carry out a military attack on their country as long as the talks continue.

HMMM... SO THEY MUST THEREFORE THINK THAT THEY CAN KEEP THESE TALKS GOING LONG ENOUGH TO MAKE THEM MOOT.

FLYTILLA ACTIVISTS TO BE GREETED IN ISRAEL WITH BRILLIANT SARCASTIC LETTER - AND DEPORTATION

"Dear activist," reads the letter that will be translated in a number of different languages. "We appreciate your choosing to make Israel the object of your humanitarian concerns.  We know there were many other worthy choices." 

For instance, the letter – drawn up in the Prime Minister's Office -- noted, they "could have chosen to protest the Syrian regime's daily savagery against its own people, which has claimed thousands of lives". Or, they could have chosen to protest "the Iranian regime's brutal crackdown on dissent and support of terrorism throughout the world."
Or, if they just had to come to this part of the globe, they "could have chosen to protest Hamas rule in Gaza, where terror organizations commit a double war crime by firing rockets at civilians and hiding behind civilians." 

But instead, the letter read, "you chose to protest against Israel, the Middle East's sole democracy, where women are equal, the press criticizes the government, human rights organizations can operate freely, religious freedom is protected for all and minorities do not live in fear." The letter concludes with a suggestion that the "activists" first solve "the real problems of the region," and then "come back and share with us your experience." 

The letter, in an indication that Israel will not let the protestors into the country but will rather deport them back to their countries of origin, ends with the line, "Have a nice flight."

AWESOME.

MORE PROOF FROM SATELLITES THAT GLOBAL WARMING IS TOTAL EFFIN' BS!

There are twice as many emperor penguins live in Antarctica than previously thought, according to a new report. An international team of researchers led by British Antarctic Survey (BAS) have found that there are more than 590,000 birds, which are almost double the previous estimates of 270,000 to 350,000. "We are delighted to be able to locate and identify such a large number of emperor penguins," said Peter Fretwell, researcher at the British Antarctic Survey, in a statement. "This is the first comprehensive census of a species taken from space," he added.

SATELLITES HAVE ALSO SHOWN THAT THE SEA ICE EXTENT IN THE ARCTIC IS NOT STEADILY DECLINING.

AND ANTARCTIC.

SUDAN BOMBS BORDER STATE

A Sudanese plane bombed Bentiu, capital of the oil-rich South Sudan border state of Unity, on Saturday, a local government spokesman said. Three bombs were released next to Bentiu Bridge, and at the moment one person is confirmed killed. But they did not break the bridge,” said Gideon Gatfan, spokesman of the Unity State government. 

The bridge links Bentiu to a road leading to the border between Sudan and South Sudan some 60 kilometres (35 miles) to the north which has been the theatre of fierce clashes in recent days.
It was the second air raid reported by South Sudanese officials on Bentiu since Thursday.

THIS IS PART OF GLOBAL JIHAD. AFRICA IS UNDER ASSAULT - FROM MALI TO NIGERIA AND SUDAN AND SOMALIA...

CREEPING SHARIA IN JORDAN: ISLAMISTS TAKEOVER NATIONAL TEACHERS UNION

BILL AYERS MUST BE PROUD:

Jordan's powerful Islamists and their allies won a landslide victory in leadership elections for the country's first teachers' union, results showed on Saturday. ... "These were historic elections that have taken place in a democratic atmosphere," Rawashdeh told AFP. ..."Now, we will focus on work to help enhance education in the country and improve the conditions of teachers."
There are around 120,000 teachers in Jordan, providing education to 1.6 million children in 5,000 state and private schools.

JORDAN WILL BE NEXT, AFTER SYRIA. THEN PERHAPS THIS FAKE COUNTRY WILL RENAME ITSELF PALESTINE.

UH-OH: TWO MORE REASONS TO FEAR EUROPE IS STILL HEADED FOR A CRASH

THIS:

The euro area’s financial troubles appear to be flaring up again, as this week’s gyrations in the Spanish bond market show. 

In reality, they never went away. And judging from the flood of money moving across borders in the region, Europeans are increasingly losing faith that the currency union will hold together at all.

AND THIS:

Concerns about Spain's deep budget problems pushed up borrowing costs sharply at an Italian bond auction yesterday, signalling that markets doubt Europe's struggling economies are overcoming their debt problems. 

Yields on the three-year bonds hit 3.9 per cent in the sale, more than one percentage point higher than at the last comparable auction a month ago and bringing an unwelcome rise in debt servicing costs as Rome tries to cut its budget deficit. 

Italy and Spain have traded testy comments in recent days on who is to blame for the rise in borrowing costs which has afflicted both countries as they struggle to meet deficit targets during a recession.

IT AIN'T OVER.

STAY TUNED... THE OTHER SHOW IS ABOUT TO DROP.

BTW: ANECDOTALLY, LAYOFFS IN THE USA ARE PICKING UP STEAM... SIGH.

POLAND'S SOCCER HOOLIGANS ARE JEW-HATING DHIMMIS

NBC - (RTWT): 

The central Polish city of Lodz was the site of an infamous Nazi death camp during WW II, which makes this all the more tragic. Anti-Semitic t-shirts with slogans such as “This is Widzew territory, entry to Jews is forbidden” were seen being sold just outside the home stadium of Widzew Lodz, one of Poland’s biggest Premiere League soccer teams. ....  Controversy erupted last year when fans of Legia Warszawa displayed a gigantic banner which read Jihad Legia, in Arabic-style writing, during a Europa League match between Poland’s Legia Warszawa and Isreal’s Hapoel Tel Aviv.

DISGUSTING.



THEY'D NEVER DARE TO THIS TO MUSLIMS - BECAUSE THESE POLES ARE COWARDS AND DHIMMIS.

EUROPE'S ECONOMIC CRISIS MAY HAVE A SILVER LINING: REDUCTIONS IN IMMIGRATION AND CULTURAL DISINTEGRATION

Immigration more important than the Economy? 

Judging by the content of the debate in Greece over the past few days, one might think that the most pressing issue facing the country ahead of the upcoming general elections is illegal immigration rather than the economy. The two coalition partners, New Democracy and PASOK, have attempted to outdo each other by trying to appear determined to tackle a matter that is gaining relevance as a result of the crisis. 

With elections probably due to take place on May 6, Greece’s two main parties have stepped up the rhetoric. New Democracy leader Antonis Samaras wants to repeal the citizenship law passed in 2010, which allows second-generation immigrants to apply for Greek citizenship. “Our cities have been taken over by illegal immigrants, we have to reclaim them,” Samaras told members of his party on Thursday as the police conducted sweep operations to round up illegal immigrants in downtown Athens. 

PASOK, meanwhile, via its Citizens’ Protection Minister Michalis Chrysochoidis, is attempting to go one better by announcing the creation of 30 reception centers around the country by next year to house up to 30,000 people awaiting asylum approval or deportation. This, Chrysochoidis says, will ease the pressure on cities like Athens, Thessaloniki and Patra. 

In a sense, both parties are right. Greece does have an immigration problem. In 2011 it was home to an estimated 1.1 million migrants, who make up roughly 10 percent of the country’s population. About 400,000 are thought to be undocumented, which is a very high number for a country as small as Greece. Along with Italy, Greece is the main point of entry in the EU for undocumented migrants.

IF THE EUROPEAN NATIONS GOT RID OF THEIR NON-EUROPEAN ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS AND CLAMPED DOWN HARD ON LEGAL IMMIGRATION - AND DEMANDED ASSIMILATION - IT WOULD LIFT WAGES, REDUCE WELFARE OUTLAYS AND CREATE MORE CULTURAL & SOCIAL SOLIDARITY.

THAT'S A WIN-WIN-WIN.

DERSHOWITZ: INDICTMENT OF ZIMMERMAN FAILS THE SMELL TEST

Dershowitz called the affidavit justifying Zimmerman’s arrest “not only thin, it’s irresponsible.” ... “Most affidavits of probable cause are very thin. This is so thin that it won’t make it past a judge on a second degree murder charge,” Dershowitz said. “There’s simply nothing in there that would justify second degree murder.” 

Dershowitz said that the elements that would constitute that crime are non-existent in the affidavit. “It’s not only thin, it’s irresponsible,” said Dershowitz. 

Dershowitz went on to strongly criticize Cory’s decision to move forward with the case against Zimmerman. “I think what you have here is an elected public official who made a campaign speech last night for reelection when she gave her presentation and overcharged. This case will not – if the evidence is no stronger than what appears in the probable cause affidavit – this case will result in an acquittal.” ... “But it’s worse than that,” said Dershowitz. “It’s irresponsible and unethical in not including material that favors the defendant.” 

“This affidavit does not even make it to probable cause,” Dershowitz concluded.... “everything in the affidavit is completely consistent with a defense of self-defense. Everything.”

I BLAME OBAMA: INSTEAD OF ASKING FOR COOLER HEADS TO PREVAIL, HE GAVE HIS BLESSING FOR THE RACE-BAITING THAT CREATED AN ATMOSPHERE SO HOSTILE THAT THE GOVERNMENT HAD TO INDICT JUST TO CHILL OUT THE RABBLE.

TRIAL OF DEMOCRAT BIGGIE AND LYING SLEAZEBALL JOHN EDWARDS BEGINS

Jury selection was scheduled to start Thursday in the federal trial of John Edwards, the start of at least six weeks of courtroom sparring between the corruption unit of the Department of Justice and a high-powered criminal defense team representing a man who twice reached for the presidency. 

Former Senator John Edwards’s fall from grace for an affair has been tabloid fodder for several years. 

Mr. Edwards’s fall from grace for a hidden affair has long been tabloid fodder. A former Democratic senator from North Carolina, he is being tried on six felony charges, four involving whether he accepted illegal campaign contributions. He also faces charges of conspiracy and making false statements. 

A conviction would send Mr. Edwards to prison for up to 30 years and could bring up to $1.5 million in fines.

HERE'S WHY LEFTISTS THINK STAY-AT-HOME-MOMS ARE WORTHY OF ATTACK

WHY DID HILLARY ROSEN'S ATTACK ON ANN ROMNEY ROLL OFF HER TOUNGUE SO EASILY?

SIMPLE:

TO LEFTISTS, STAY-AT-HOME- MOMS ARE A VESTIGE OF A RACIST/SEXIST/PATERNALISTIC JUDEO-CHRISTIAN SOCIETY.

AND THEY BLAME THAT SOCIETY FOR EVERYTHING THEY SEE AS BAD IN THE WORLD:

• REPRESSED SEXUALITY;
• POLLUTING THE WORLD TO THE POINT OF CATASTROPHE; IMPOVERISHING THE THIRD WORLD;
• AND COMMITTING MOST OF THE GENOCIDE IN HISTORY.

THESE ARE ALL DEMONSTRABLY FALSE NOTIONS.

PLUS, LEFTISTS BELIEVE IN THE NANNYSTATE AND THINK THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD BE YOUR MOM.

SO ATTACKING A WOMAN LIKE ANN ROMNEY COMES EASY TO THEM.

AND THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULDN'T BELIEVE THE APOLOGY.

ROSEN - AND POSTMODERN LEFTISTS LIKE HER - MEAN EVERY WORD OF THEIR ATTACKS ON THE TRADITIONAL  FAMILY.

BEING A VICTIM DOESN'T GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO RAPE

There's an important point to made about this case of an alleged refugee from the Taliban in Afghanistan who raped a woman in Australia and tried to use his background as an excuse (H/T: Jihad Watch):

An Afghan man who fled from the Taliban to begin a new life in Australia will spend the next 14 years behind bars after a judge rejected his claim that cultural differences had led to him raping a woman.


Esmatullah Sharifi, 30, was told by Judge Mark Dean in Melbourne that his background as a traumatised Muslim refugee was no excuse for the rape of a drunken and vulnerable teenager.

The judge noted that a psychologist had told the Victoria County Court in Melbourne that Sharifi, who arrived in Australia in 2001, had an 'unclear concept of what constitutes consent in sexual relationships'.

Rejecting that argument, the judge said Sharifi's background and flight from the Taliban was not an excuse for violence, telling the Afghan: 'You well knew the victim was not consenting to the act of sexual penetration you performed.'

It was not the first time that Sharifi had appeared in court on a rape charge - in 2009 he was jailed for a minimum of seven years for the abduction and sexual assault of a woman on Christmas Eve, 2008 - five days after he had raped the teenager.

Already serving seven years imprisonment for that offence, he was now charged with raping the 18-year-old who he had found alone, intoxicated and sitting on the pavement near a nightclub after she had had a disagreement with her friends.

Sharifi, the judge said, had driven from his home that night in December looking for a victim.

He sat down beside the teenager, began talking to her and offered to drive her to a hotel where her friends had moved on to.

But when he drove off in a different direction, the young woman became concerned and texted her friends - until Sharifi took her phone and drove to a dark street.

The teenager cried and asked if he planned to kill her. He replied by putting his hand around her neck and forcing her to remove her clothes before raping her.

The point made by the judge can also be made about the case of Roman Polanski and his violation of a 13-year-old girl in 1977; as many know, he was a Holocaust survivor, but that's absolutely no excuse whatsoever for violating an innocent and defenseless girl. May this vulgar, disgusting man from Afghanistan now spend time behind bars, and afterwards, if they're wise, they'll deport him back to join the Taliban predators he supposedly was trying to flee from.

BRITISH LEFTISTS MOVING WAR ON MURDOCH TO USA AND FOX

A high-profile British lawyer who has been closely involved in pursuing the hacking scandal at Rupert Murdoch’s British tabloids was quoted on Thursday as saying that he planned for the first time to sue on behalf of alleged victims in the United States, the center of Mr. Murdoch’s global media empire. 

The lawyer, Mark Lewis, said he would take legal action on behalf of three people — a “well-known sports person,” a sports person not in the public eye and an American citizen — the BBC reported. 

“The News of the World had thousands of people they hacked. Some of them were in America at the time, either traveling or resident there,” he said, referring to the Sunday tabloid that Mr. Murdoch closed down last year as the hacking scandal engulfed it. 

It was not immediately clear how or whether the action would affect News Corporation, the parent company of News International, the Murdoch family’s British newspaper subsidiary. 

BBC:

"The scandal as it is is not just then confined to the United Kingdom or to the United Kingdom companies like News International and News Group Newspapers. "This goes to the heartland of News Corporation and we'll be looking at the involvement of the parent company in terms of claims there and that is something that will be taken more seriously by perhaps the investors and shareholders in News Corporation."

WHEN THE NYTIMES LEAKED NATIONAL SECURITY SECRETS THE LEFT THOUGHT IS WAS GREAT.

BUT TRY TO GET SOME DOPE ON A FEW OVER-RATED CELEBRITIES, AND YOU'RE A PARIAH.

AND MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT: THIS AIN'T ABOUT THE MONEY.

MEL GIBSON'S PLANNED MACABEE MOVIE SHELVED, AND IT'S FOR THE BEST

Considering just how horrific Gibson's view of Jews happens to be, that's why the news that the project is being let go for now is decidedly best (via Big Hollywood), and Rabbi Marvin Hier of the Wiesenthal Institute also agrees:

Rabbi Marvin Hier, founder and dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, said he was pleased that the project had been shelved.

"Jewish history will be better off without Mel Gibson playing Judah Maccabee," Hier told TheWrap.

Or even directing. I wouldn't trust him behind the camera either.

But this is just the beginning. Joe Eszterhas, who was supposed to work on the screenplay, gave a letter to The Wrap (also via Big Hollywood) arguing further that Gibson's intentions were less than noble:

In an explosive nine-page letter to Gibson obtained by TheWrap (read the full letter here), the screenwriter wrote that the director of “The Passion of the Christ” never intended to make the movie about Jewish heroism, called “The Maccabees.”

Instead, Eszterhas said, Gibson announced the project “in an attempt to deflect continuing charges of anti-Semitism which have dogged you, charges which have crippled your career.”

He added: “I’ve come to the conclusion that the reason you won’t make ‘The Maccabees’ is the ugliest possible one. You hate Jews.” [...]

Eszterhas’ letter reveals a more complex dynamic, a disturbing picture of Gibson as a man yet again out of control, inflicting frequent rages on those around him, in the grip of an anti-Semitic obsession, and possibly dangerous to those around him.

On several occasions, said Eszterhas, Gibson “was wild, crazed, and explosive.”

The April 9 letter also recounts Gibson’s threatening to kill his ex-girlfriend, Oksana Gregorieva.

“You were raving at Oksana even after you’d reached a custody agreement over Luci,” their daughter, the letter says. “And then you were even more explicit about your threat: “I’m going to kill her! I’m going to have her killed!” You said you’d become friends with two FBI agents (or former FBI agents) and they were going to help you to kill her.”

Gibson’s anti-Semitic obsession was a leitmotif of working on the film together at Gibson’s homes in Malibu and Costa Rica, Eszterhas said.

"You continually called Jews 'Hebes' and 'oven-dodgers' and 'Jewboys.' It seemed that most times when we discussed someone, you asked 'He’s a Hebe, isn’t he?' You said most 'gatekeepers' of American companies were 'Hebes' who 'controlled their bosses.'"

The slurs continued, through their work:


“You said the Holocaust was 'mostly a lot of horseshit.' You said the Torah made reference to the sacrifice of Christian babies and infants. When I told you that you were confusing the Torah with The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, ... you insisted 'it's in the Torah -- it's in there!' (It isn't)."

Okay, I've heard enough. I haven't seen the Lethal Weapon movies in years, but I do know that at least a few of the people involved in that decidedly overrated action movie series are some of the most disgusting scum of the earth (take Danny Glover, for instance), and I'd strongly advise anyone looking for an enjoyable action film to look elsewhere. After Gibson's tirade following his pullover for speeding and drunk driving, I can sadly believe everything Eszterhas says about that pond scum. Ugh, how dare he ever even remotely claim to be a conservative.

ROMNEY: OUT OF THE LIMELIGHT, A LIFE OF PRINCIPLED GOODNESS

ROMNEY ISN'T A CAREER POLITICIAN OR A LIFETIME POLITICAL ACTIVIST.

HE'S A BRILLIANT AND GOOD MAN WHO GOT WEALTHY STIMULATING ECONOMIC GROWTH FOR THE NATION AND NEVER LET THAT WEALTH OR THE ROUGH'N TUMBLE CONFLICT OF COMPETITION IN THE MARKETPLACE DISTRACT HIM FROM ALSO DOING MORE IMPORTANT THINGS IN HIS PRIVATE LIFE:


A FEW EXAMPLES:

... Romney and his sons once raced across a dark, placid lake on Jet Skis, “Baywatch”-style, to rescue strangers and their dog, McKenzie, after their boat capsized. 

... Romney once temporarily closed the Boston headquarters of his private-equity firm to round up his co-workers, accountants and lawyers and fan out across Manhattan to search for Melissa Gay, his Bain Capital partner’s missing 14-year-old daughter. 

... Romney spent years counseling neighbors on their marriages and adoptions, helping the unemployed feed their families, and ministering to the sick and the addicted.

ROMNEY IS A BETTER MAN THAN OBAMA.

QUARTET DOES THEIR USUAL MORAL EQUIVALENCE

The Quartet, as they're called, met in Washington, and it's business as usual with their moral equations between Israel and the jihadists:

The Quartet issued a statement Wednesday that included a paragraph lumping violent Palestinian extremism and incitement with settler violence.

"Noting the significant progress on security achieved by the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank, the Quartet calls on the Palestinian Authority to continue to make every effort to improve law and order, to fight violent extremism, and to end incitement," the statement read. "The Quartet also expressed its concern over ongoing settler violence and incitement in the West Bank and calls on Israel to take effective measures, including bringing the perpetrators of such acts to justice."

The statement came at the end of a meeting in Washington attended by US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, Quartet envoy Tony Blair and Jordanian Foreign Minister Nasser Judeh.

Keep going, incompetent ones. Basically, they're taking a subtle approach trying to make the PA sound the better, and Israel sound the worse. Oh, by the way, can they describe that "settler violence" more clearly? Frankly, I doubt it.

MESSY STASI ARCHIVE

A researcher, Thomas Wegener Friis has found evidence that a well known living Dane was a central figure for the Stasi Spy network in the West.   Friis found this spy through his persistent existence in many various case files in spite of the fact that the Stasi destroyed this persons central file shortly before the fall of the Wall.  This demonstrates how difficult it is to purge a complicated paper archive.

Friis will not name the Spy because his evidence must be incontrovertible - otherwise Friis could face charges for defamation of character.

But is it a coincidence that just last week it has emerged that Danish Police Intelligence (PET) cannot find it's files on Ole Sohn ...and that they may have been destroyed after orders of the previous socialist government?

STRANGER THAN FICTION?

The Danish Minister for Industry and Growth, Ole Sohn, has called for heightened penalties  for businessmen that engage in price fixing.  This practice is commonly referred to as a Cartel. 

Isn't it amusing that Mr. Sohn, a leading  member of the Socialist Peoples Party, and former CHAIRMAN OF THE CENTRAL COMMITTEE OF THE DANISH COMMUNIST PARTY FROM 1987-1991, would be so troubled by the emergence and maintenance of monopolistic practices!  What is  Communism  if it is not just one huge, inefficient, and immoral cartel?

THIS GRANDFATHER NEEDS THE PUBLIC'S HELP IN SHOWING THAT TERROR VICTIMS WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN

The father of a man and his grandson who were murdered because of Muslims who threw stones at their car causing an overturn has asked the public for help:

Ahead of a military court hearing in the trial of five Palestinians charged with causing the fatal crash of his son Asher Palmer and infant grandson Yonatan, Michael Palmer called again on Tuesday for public support during the trial.

Asher and his son Yonatan were killed when their car overturned on Route 60, just outside Kiryat Arba, last September. Though the IDF initially said the car crash was a tragic accident, after a subsequent investigation they revealed their suspicions that the Palmers were murdered as a result of rocks thrown at their moving car.

In November, the military advocate-general indicted five Palestinian men, allegedly part of a terror cell formed to harm Israelis, in the Ofer Military Court in connection with the Palmers’ deaths.

At the last trial hearing, in the Ofer Military Court near Ramallah last month, the IDF allowed a group of 10 members of the public to accompany Palmer and his son Shmuel to the courtroom.

Palmer said that the strong support he received from the public – over 100 people contacted him and asked to attend the trial – helped him and his family through the difficult hearing in the tiny, crowded military courtroom, at which the defendants’ families were also present.

“The strong public support at the hearing on March 11 demonstrated strongly that terror victims and Israeli society at large expect justice from the justice system,” Palmer said, adding that at a previous hearing in February, he had been upset when the defendants’ families had shouted their support for the five Palestinians in the dock.

“There was barely any Jewish presence [at that February hearing] and the murderers openly received encouragement from their supporters in the courtroom,” Palmer said.

The military trial hearings in the Palmer case have so far been open to the public, including the press, although the IDF limited the number of non-press spectators to 10 at the March hearing, citing space restrictions in the courtroom.

Palmer said it was essential for the military court system to see that the Israeli public cares about justice for terror victims.


“It is, I believe, very important to show the prosecution and the court that Asher and Yonatan, and all victims of terror, are remembered and that we demand justice for their murderers,” he added.

The five defendants – Ali Sa’adeh, Wa’al al-Arjeh, Iyad al-Baw, Mahmoud al-Baw and Mohammed al-Baw – are charged under the Military Order 1651 regarding Security Provisions in the West Bank.

According to the indictments, the five men formed a cell to assault Israelis in revenge for a “price-tag” attack on a Nablus mosque shortly before the killings. They decided to throw rocks from a moving car at Israeli cars in the West Bank, the indictment alleges, with the aim of killing passengers.

If the court finds the defendants guilty of deliberately causing the deaths, it will set a legal precedent, as to date no one has ever been convicted of murder as a result of rock throwing.

The next trial date is set for April 18 at the Ofer Military Court.

Michael Palmer asks anyone interested to contact him at mcpfiveone@gmail.com.

Everyone and anyone who can lend their support to the grandfather is encouraged to do so.

WHICH IS WORSE, BIG GOVERNMENT OR BIG BUSINESS?

BIG GOVERNMENT IS MUCH WORSE.

BIG BUSINESS HAS TO COMPETE FOR YOU DOLLAR, AND IF YOU DON'T LIKE WHAT THEY HAVE TO OFFER, THEN YOU CAN GO TO A COMPETITOR.

BUT BIG GOVERNMENT IS A MONOPOLY, AND IF YOU DON'T GIVE THEM THEIR TAKE, THEN THEY SEND YOU TO JAIL.

THE ONLY BIG BUSINESSES THAT ARE BAD ARE BIG MEDIA AND BIG LABOR, AND BOTH DEPEND ON THEIR PALS IN BIG GOVERNMENT!

DON'T BE A DUPE AND FALL FOR THE LIBERALS' PROPAGANDA ATTACKING BIG BUSINESS.

BUSINESSES GET BIG BY SELLING US WHAT WE WANT AT A PRICE WE CAN AFFORD!

APPLE

NATHAN'S FAMOUS

FORD

LEVI'S

AND THAT MAKES US HAPPIER AND BETTER OFF. AND OTHERS, TOO.

AND WHEN THEY STOP OFFERING US WHAT WE WANT AT A PRICE WE LIKE, THEY GO OUT OF BUSINESS.

BIG BUSINESS NEVER HELD A GUN TO ANYONE'S HEAD AND FORCED THEM TO BUY A DAMN THING.

REMEMBER THAT THE NEXT TIME YOU HEAR A DEMOCRAT WHINE ABOUT BIG BUSINESS.

IT'S PROPAGANDA, AND THEY'RE JUST TRYING TO DISTRACT YOU FROM THE REAL PROBLEM: THEM!

DUDE HID I-PHONE IN WOMEN'S TOILET... TO MAKE VIDEOS

An Albany College of Pharmacy student hid an iPhone in a CVS bathroom to record dozens of women taking off their clothes, police said. 

The alleged incidents occurred at the Latham CVS, at ... Loudon Road, where Vaughn Greene was an intern. While Greene, 26, was working the counter at CVS, the victim asked him if the bathroom was open, Sgt. Robert Donnelly said. Greene then went to the bathroom, placed the phone between two rolls of toilet paper, switched it on record and told the woman the bathroom was "all clear," Donnelly said. 

A 60-year-old woman using the bathroom on Saturday night discovered the phone stashed behind rolls of toilet paper. She initially thought the phone was lost and took it to the front counter to turn in, according to court records. She then saw that the phone was still recording while she was carrying it.

SICKO. THIS IS WHY I ONLY DO #2 AT HOME. BADABUMBUMP.

RICK SANTORUM WRITES ABOUT JERUSALEM

Rick Santorum's written an op-ed in the NY Daily News (via Caroline Glick) about how Obama's administration is violating the law by not recognizing that Jerusalem is Israel's capitol:

It is actually not well known that the Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995 made it U.S. law to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and that the waiver provision of the act only applied to moving the embassy to Jerusalem. A letter to President Bill Clinton -- signed by 84 U.S. senators, including me -- articulated this point.

He also makes a point about Mitt Romney's failure so far to unambiguously commit himself to moving the embassy to Jerusalem. While I certainly support Romney against Obama in the election, it's important that he be clear about his policies on Israel, and appointing John Bolton to a prominent position in the government if he's elected would be a good start.

And while it's clear Santorum won't be presidential candidate by now, he has earned my admiration - maybe even more so than Newt Gingrich - for bringing up this important subject, and I certainly hope he'll keep going in American politics for years to come.

UPDATE BY RELIAPUNDIT:


I hardly think Mitt opposes the idea of an undivided Israel - no close "3 decades old" friend of Bibi's would likely be opposed to a united Jerusalem.

So Santorum was wrong to bundle Obama and Romney together and attack them both as if there was no difference.

Mitt has unabashedly supported Israel for decades and has said over and over that the parties must decide the results of negotiations and not outsiders.

Israel's position is clear: no to "right of return", and no divided Jerusalem (tho' suburbs outside of Jerusalem as of 1967 might be given away).

All Santorum was doing by staying in and by attacking Mitt was helping Obama, not Israel.

If Obama is reelected, then Israel is in worse shape than if Romney is elected.

Santourm had no chance at the nomination, let alone any chance at beating Obama.

SO I AM GLAD HE GOT OUT: Anything and everything Santorum might have said at this point would have been helpful to Obama and harmful to Israel and it helps Israel that he withdrew.

SHOCKER: WASH POST POLL SAMPLING 50% MORE DEMS THAN REPUBLICANS FAVORS OBAMA!

THEY PORTRAY THE POLL AS SHOWING HOW STRONG OBAMA IS WITH THE ELECTORATE, BUT ALL IT REALLY PROVES IS THAT OBAMA LEADS ROMNEY AMONG DEMOCRATS.

POLL VIA AMERICAN POWER:

With the general-election campaign beginning to take shape, President Obama holds clear advantages over Mitt Romney on personal attributes and a number of key issues, but remains vulnerable to discontent with the pace of the economic recovery, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll.  

Obama has double-digit leads over the likely Republican presidential nominee on who would do a better job of protecting the middle class, addressing women’s issues, handling international affairs and dealing with health care.

BUT, THE SAMPLE THEY CHOSE TO USE OVERSAMPLED DEMS BY 50%!

THAT'S RIGHT! TAKE A LOOK:

901. Generally speaking, do you usually think of yourself as (a Democrat), (a Republican), an independent or what?

Democrat 34% - Republican 24% - Independent 34% (+Other) 

THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE NATION IS EVENLY SPLIT OR LEANS GOP! 

SO, THIS POLL IS PURE EFFIN PROPAGANDA!

IF YOU ADJUST THE POLL NUMBERS TO REFLECT REALITY, THEN  MITT IS DOING GREAT!

UH-OH: SPAIN FALTERING AS CHINA AND US ECONOMIES WEAKEN

Worries about Spain’s finances are intensifying as the country’s bond yields on international markets rose despite expectations of a new round of austerity measures. 

The yield on 10-year Spanish bonds in the secondary market rose to 5.81% from 5.74% when the Easter break began late last week. The difference between Spain’s yield and that of the benchmark German bund was 4.11 percentage points, the highest since the new government took power in December. 

The increase in the yields was due to wariness over Spain’s ability to cut debt as well as a drop of confidence in wider global financial markets following weak US economic data.

BASED ON WHAT I'M HEARING ABOUT IN THE PRE-PRODUCTION PLANNING & DESIGNING IN SEVERAL OF USA'S DOMESTIC CONSUMER MANUFACTURING MARKETS, ANOTHER CRASH MAY VERY WELL BE COMING.

MOST RETAILERS ARE NOT DOING WELL, AND COMPANIES UP'N DOWN THE SUPPLY STREAM ARE STILL CUTTING BUDGETS AND FIRING PEOPLE.

ONLY THE SURETY OF THE INEVITABILITY OF THE ELECTION OF ROMNEY AND A SIGNIFICANT DROP IN THE PRICE OF ENERGY - ESPECIALLY GASOLINE - CAN PREVENT THIS.

(IRONICALLY, AS MITT INEVITABLY CLIMBS IN THE POLLS VERSUS OBAMA AND CONFIDENCE IN THE ECONOMIC FUTURE OF USA GROWS, THE ECONOMY WILL IMPROVE AND HELP OBAMA!)

THE SOONER SANTORUM DROPS OUT - AND THE NATION CAN FOCUS ON OBAMA VERSUS ROMNEY, THE SOONER THE ECONOMY IMPROVES.

MUBARAK'S SPY CHIEF SULEIMAN RUNNING FOR PRESIDENT - AND THIS SHOULD BE HIS TV COMMERCIAL

Egypt's former intelligence chief, Omar Suleiman, has strongly criticised the Muslim Brotherhood and insisted he would restore stability as president. 

In an interview published in Egyptian newspapers, Gen Suleiman suggested the Islamist group had lost popularity as it sought to monopolise power. ... Gen Suleiman served as the head of Egypt's General Intelligence Department for 18 years, a position that gave him a central role in a regime that was accused of corruption and human rights abuses. 

He became the country's first vice-president in 30 years on 29 January 2011, four days after the popular uprising against Mr Mubarak began.

THIS SHOULD BE HIS FIRST - AND ONE AND ONLY TV AD:

School Removes Students Mural Because It Depicted a Mother and Father

I'm not embellishing this story at all.

Check it out:



Elizabeth Bierenday, a junior at at Pilgrim High School in Warwick, Rhode Island, found out her mural, showing a boy growing up into an adult with a wife and family, was so offensive it had to be painted over. According to a local NBC 10 news report out of Warwick, Bierenday was asked by the school to paint a mural:

Bierenday showed the school's assistant principal the sketches, which were approved. Bierenday said she started to paint the mural last week, when an assistant principal came to her with a problem. 

Some people at the school felt the mural didn't accurately represent many students at Pilgrim and school officials decided to paint over the right side. Warwick Superintendent Peter Horoschak said he just found out about the issue on Thursday and sided with Bierenday saying she should be allowed to paint her original design. 

NBC 10 spoke with a few parents and they agreed with the superintendent. 

On Friday, Bierenday spoke with John DePetro on WPRO-AM about the mural and said she was told that her original design may be offensive or a religious symbol.

A final decision is scheduled to be made about the mural next week. 

You can be absolutely sure that, if this girl had drawn a mural with two fathers, the school would NOT have painted over the students mural.

The school has decided that Gay is Moral and Heterosexual is Immoral.

BOOK REVIEW: ARSENAL

Good fiction is another medium for waking up people to the dangers of Islam.

Tammy Swofford’s suspense novel Arsenal, the title referring to strategic thought rather than to the military battlefield or acts of militant jihad, lives up to its genre label. The plot, well delineated and plausible, deals with the search for an Islamic treasure, namely, a pouch containing the hair of Muhammad the Prophet. Early on in the novel, the voice of a minor character describes the mission of the Muslim Brotherhood in the West, deemed decadent by the devout, and lays the foundation for the suspense plot that rushes to fulfillment in the second portion of Arsenal:

“'Just as we are to recite the Qur’an in a measured tone, we must also move in a measured and quiet manner in the West. We do not move as a lion, but we move as a panther'” (19).

Along the way, Arsenal, points out the dangers of geopolitical Islam and the West’s gullibility thereto, particularly the lack of Western understanding of the 1998-2007 wordcraft sword of Islam as expressed by the thoughts of the character Ahmad as-Sirjani:

“Universal Values. Two simple words….The words would sound secular, adaptable to the Western ear. But the cryptograph would be Qur’anic….It was time for a paradigm shift” (103).

Genre and political aspects aside, what makes this novel an outstanding and readable piece of writing is threefold....

ARBY'S - TO VOMIT WOULD BE REDUNDANT

Attention, conservatives: Arby’s doesn’t want your business or your tweets

Arby’s resorts to blocking conservatives on Twitter

Arby’s announced via Twitter that it would no longer advertise on Rush Limbaugh’s show.

That's rich, because Arby’s has never been a sponsor of his show. 

See here, Arby’s president is a Democrat donor.

Conservatives were not at all happy with Arby’s actions – and they got very vocal about it.
Well, as it turns out, Arby’s has begun blocking conservatives who have tweeted complaints.
