This is what the ruling class really is like

THIS ITEM IS ABOUT THE RULING CLASS IN BRITAIN, BUT SIMILAR THINGS HAPPEN HERE ALL THE TIME.

IT HAS EVERYTHING IN IT: DEVIANT SEX, PROSTITUTION, DRUGS, CRONYISM, AND PROBABLY BLACKMAIL, TOO.
Dominatrix's Story Puts UK Treasurer in Spotlight

A dominatrix's sensational story of sex, cocaine, and tabloid wrongdoing has revived questions over the relationship between Rupert Murdoch's scandal-hungry News of the World tabloid and Britain's Treasury chief.

Natalie Rowe's 2005 claim that she and Conservative politician George Osborne used to snort cocaine together raised questions about Osborne's character. Osborne denied the claim and survived the scandal, going on to become Britain's finance chief.

Now Rowe's lawyer Mark Lewis says Osborne's survival owes much to the News of the World's forgiving approach to the story.

Lewis said Monday that Osborne later recommended News of the World editor Andy Coulson for a top job with his boss, Prime Minister David Cameron.
THIS MAN IS THE CHANCELLOR OF BRITAIN.

HE HAS THE MORALITY OF A DEVILISH SATYR.

HE HAS NO MORE RIGHT TO BE IN A POSITION IN POWER IN ANY GOVERNMENT THAN HE DOES BEING A SCHOOL TEACHER OR PRISON GUARD.

THE FACT THAT THE RULING CLASS IS LITTERED WITH SCUM LIKE THIS, AND THAT WHEN THEY'RE CAUGHT THE RULING CLASS - AND THE MEDIA - LOOK THE OTHER WAY, SAYS ALL YOU NEED TO SAY ABOUT WHY SO MANY GOVERNMENTS ARE SO EFFED UP.

THESE AMORAL ELITIST SCUMBAGS ARE THE VERY SAME THINK THEY'RE ENTITLED TO RUN THINGS.

AND HOW WELL HAVE THEY RUN THINGS?

THEY HAVE RUN THINGS RIGHT INTO THE GROUND.

AND WE'LL NOT RIGHT THINGS THEM UNTIL WE SHOW THEM ALL THE EFFING DOOR.

In 6 years America will become the world’s largest oil producer once again

“America is poised to become the world’s largest oil producer once again — nearly four decades after it lost the title,” writes The Sunday Times.

Goldman Sachs, the investment bank, has predicted that US production will hit 10.9m barrels a day by 2017, a one-third rise over its current level of 8.3m barrels a day.

The surge is a result of novel drilling technologies that have opened new fields. The last time America was the biggest crude producer was 1973, when Opec, the cartel of oil-producing nations, launched its first embargo and sent prices soaring. Russia was the world’s top producer last year with daily output of 10.6m barrels, followed by Saudi Arabia at 10.4m. There are doubts about the ability of both to increase production substantially. Goldman expects Russia, whose nationalistic approach to natural resources limits investment from western firms, to have raised output by only 100,000 barrels a day by 2017.

... “The world cannot be running out of oil, because Aidan Heavey keeps finding more of it. Tullow Oil’s chief executive has seen the fortunes of his company transformed twice with big discoveries in Uganda (2006) and of Ghana (2007), and investors had been hoping for a third act. The 15% pop in Tullow’s share price on Friday after news of a potentially significant find off French Guiana sounds like that act’s opening lines. The Zaedyus well is real frontier territory and looks to be a mirror image of Tullow’s Jubilee fields in Ghana. Northern South America and west Africa were physically joined aeons ago; Tullow’s exploration follows the view that they should be geologically similar. (…) But much more drilling must be done to establish whether Zaedyus and its surrounding fields will yield as much as Jubilee. (…) And takeover-talk routinely surrounds Tullow; the more oil it discovers, the more attractive it becomes to resource-hungry national oil companies. But at these valuations, they may have already missed their chance,” writes the Financial Times in this weekend’s edition.

1300 YEARS AGO THE IRISH FOUGHT THE UNDEAD

TWO skeletons discovered with stones wedged in their mouths were buried this way around 1,300 years ago to prevent them rising from their graves to haunt the living.

A documentary featuring the work of archaeologists at Institute of Technology, Sligo, to be screened tomorrow, suggests the practice aimed to prevent the corpses becoming "revenants".

The documentary says such "deviant burials" are associated with vampires and revenants — ghosts who were believed to come back among the living — unless steps were taken to keep them in their graves.

I WONDER IF IT WORKED?

HOPE FOR CHINA

It is impossible to say how many Christians there are in China today, but no-one denies the numbers are exploding.

The government says 25 million, 18 million Protestants and six million Catholics. Independent estimates all agree this is a vast underestimate. A conservative figure is 60 million.

There are already more Chinese at church on a Sunday than in the whole of Europe.

THE GROWTH OF THE CHURCH MEANS THE GOVERNMENT IS WEAKENING. GOOD.


THE SHAMELESSNESS OF PROGRESSIVES ON FULL DISPLAY ON 9/11/11

SICKENING.

LIBERALS HAVE FORGOTTEN WHAT "NEVER FORGET" MEANS FOR THE NATION

"NEVER FORGET' MEANS SOMETHING DIFFERENT TO THE NATION THAN IT DOES FOR THOSE WHO LOST LOVED ONES ON 9/11/01.
  • FOR THOSE WHO LOST LOVED ONES, IT MEANS NEVER FORGET THEM - THE HUSBANDS AND WIVES, THE DAUGHTERS AND SONS, THE BROTHERS AND SISTERS, THE UNCLES AND AUNTS, THE COUSINS, THE FRIENDS, THE CO-WORKERS...
  • FOR THE NATION IT MUST MEAN NEVER FORGET WHAT HAPPENED HERE, WHY IT HAPPENED - AND WHAT WE MUST DO ABOUT IT.
TODAY, IN NYC, AT THE MEMORIAL RUN BY UBER-LIBERAL NANNY BLOOMBERG, THEY ONLY OBSERVED THE FIRST PART.

THAT'S GOOD AND RIGHT AND NECESSARY, BUT IT'S NOT ENOUGH.

IT'S THE RESULT OF PC-NESS, APPEASING COWARDICE, DHIMMITUDE, MULTICULTURALISM, PACIFISM AND THE LEFT'S DEEP LOATHING OF AMERICA.

IT MUST NOT STAND. THE MEMORIALS MUST NOT BE ALLOWED TO DEVOLVE INTO PERSONAL BATHOS.

THEY MUST REMAIN A SOURCE OF PUBLIC INSPIRATION - WHERE AMERICANS AND ALL THOSE WHO LOVE LIBERTY CAN COME AND BE REMINDED THAT "THE PRICE OF FREEDOM IS ETERNAL VIGILANCE".

THOMAS JEFFERSON SAID THAT. HE KNEW WHAT HE WAS SPEAKING OF: ER... UM... HE FOUGHT A WAR AGAINST "THE RELIGION OF PEACE", TOO.

MEDIA BLACKOUT: NO 9/11/01 WTC JUMPERS OR ARAB REJOICERS


STEVE HAYWARD:
... in the wall-to-wall coverage we’ll see today, we won’t see two things: the media have assiduously avoided showing the awful video of the people who jumped from the towers, and we won’t see any video of the throngs in the Arab world dancing wildly in the streets celebrating on 9/11.

Both might stir up politically incorrect sentiments.

Instead,
as Mark Steyn points out, we’re going to be treated to a lot of self-loathing equivocation that will avoid recognizing pure evil for what it was and still is.
AND THIS EQUIVOCATION - FUELED BY THE COWARDICE THAT LEADS SOME PEOPLE TO DENIAL AND OTHERS TO DHIMMITUDE - MAKES US ALL LESS SECURE AND LESS FREE.

WE RETREAT WHEN WE SHOULD COUNTER-ATTACK, AND WHEN WE DO COUNTER-ATTACK WE DO SO WITH ONE HAND BEHIND OUR BACK.

MEANWHILE, THE ENEMY GETS STRONGER AND SWALLOWS MORE STRATEGIC GEOGRAPHY - MAKING THE PRICE WE SHALL PAY IN THE ULTIMATE BATTLES ONLY WORSE.

SIGH.

MORE FROM VLAD:



IT IS OUTRAGEOUS THAT THE MEMORIAL REVEALS NOTHING ABOUT THE JIHADO-TERROR THAT LIES AT THE CORE OF 9/11.

DENIAL DENIAL DENIAL DENIAL.

NOTHING GOOD CAN COME FROM IT.

CHURCHILL'S SPEECH ON 9/11/1940 SPEAKS TO US TODAY

Mr Churchill in a Broadcast Speech, September 11th 1940.

These cruel, wanton indiscriminate bombings of London are of course a part of Hitler’s invasion plan.


He hopes by killing large numbers of civilians and women and children that he will terrorize and cow the people of this mighty Imperial city and make them a burden and anxiety for the Government, and thus distract our attention unduly from the ferocious onslaught he is preparing.


Little does he know the spirit of the British nation or the tough fibre of the Londoners who forebears played a leading part in the establishment of Parliamentary institutions and who have been bred to value freedom far above their lives.


This wicked man the repository and embodiment of many forms of soul destroying hatred, this monstrous product former wrongs and shames, has now resolved to try to break our famous island race by a process of indiscriminate slaughter and destruction.


What he has done is to kindle a fire in British hearts , here and all over the world , which will glow long after all traces of the conflagrations he has caused in London have been removed.


He has lighted a fire which will burn with a steady and consuming flame until the last vestiges of Nazi tyranny have been burnt out of Europe , and until the Old World and the New can join hands to rebuild the temples of man’s freedom and man’s honour on foundations which will not soon or easily be overthrown.


This is the time for everyone to stand together and hold firm, as they are doing.


I express my admiration for the exemplary manner in which the air raid precaution services in London are being discharged, especially the fire brigades, whose work has been so heavy and also dangerous.


All the world that is still free marvels at the composure and fortitude with which the citizens of London are facing and surmounting the great ordeal to which they are subjected, the end of which ,or the severity of which cannot yet be foreseen.


It is a message of good cheer to our fighting forces, on the seas, in the air and in our waiting armies, in all their posts and stations that we send them from this capital city.


They know that they have behind them a people who will not flinch or weary of the struggle, hard and protracted though it will be, but that we shall rather draw from the heart of suffering the means of inspiration and survival, and of a victory won not only for ourselves, but for all, a victory won not only for our times, but for the long and better days that are to come.

THESE WORDS ABOUT HITLER ALSO DESCRIBE THE JIHADO-TERRORISTS WHO ATTACKS US AND OUR ALLIES ALL OVER THE WORLD - EVEN ON THIS VERY DAY.

WE NEED TO RENEW OURSELVES AND BE A BRAVE NOW AS THE BRITISH WERE DURING THE BATTLE OF BRITAIN AND THE BOMBING OF LONDON.

WE NEED THAT RESOLVE TODAY.

WHAT DID CHURCHILL SAY ABOUT THOSE WHO WOULD APPEASE THE ENEMY? WHAT WOULD HE SAY ABOUT FOLKS WHO WOULD BAN CLERGY AND 1ST RESPONDERS FROM TODAY'S MEMORIAL, WHO WOULD SUPPORT AND GROUND ZERO MOSQUE, AND WHO INSISTS ON CALLING ISLAM "A RELIGION OF PEACE"?

HERE - DEBATING THE MUNICH AGREEMENT IN PARLIAMENT:
I do not grudge our loyal, brave people, who were ready to do their duty no matter what the cost, who never flinched under the strain of last week - I do not grudge them the natural, spontaneous outburst of joy and relief when they learned that the hard ordeal would no longer be required of them at the moment; but they should know the truth.

They should know that there has been gross neglect and deficiency in our defences; they should know that we have sustained a defeat without a war, the consequences of which will travel far with us along our road; they should know that we have passed an awful milestone in our history, when the whole equilibrium of Europe has been deranged, and that the terrible words have for the time being been pronounced against the Western democracies:


"Thou art weighed in the balance and found wanting."

And do not suppose that this is the end.

This is only the beginning of the reckoning. This is only the first sip, the first foretaste of a bitter cup which will be proffered to us year by year unless by a supreme recovery of moral health and martial vigour, we arise again and take our stand for freedom as in the olden time.
MANY OF THE APPEASERS APPEASE BECAUSE THEY ARE AFRAID OF THE ENEMY. THESE WE MUST BUCK UP.

OTHERS - MOSTLY ON THE LEFT - ARE MORE SYMPATHETIC TO THEM THAN OUR OWN CIVILIZATION. THESE WE MUST ATTACK.

BUT WE MUSTN'T RELENT TO EITHER TYPE OF APPEASER.

AS CHURCHILL SAID, WE NEED...
.. a supreme recovery of moral health and martial vigour, we arise again and take our stand for freedom as in the olden time.
OR WE SHALL SEE OUR LIBERTY AND SECURITY DIMINISHED EVERY DAY.

CNN CREW ATTACKED BY THE EGYPTIAN MOBS

During the time the attack on the Israeli embassy took place in Cairo, a CNN filming crew was also menaced:
CNN journalists described the Friday mob that attacked them during the riot at the Israeli embassy as “animals.” One other journalist was called a spy and was almost raped.

The worldwide news site reported a scene that brought back ugly memories of the gang rape of CBS reporter Lara Logan earlier this year during the Arab spring uprising against the Mubarak regime.

CNN reported that one person in the mob on Friday called Dina Amer, a woman member of another American crew, “a spy.” A CNN producer who is an Egyptian approached to rescue the woman from the rioters, but “the mob overwhelmed the pair,” the network reported.

"I was thinking, how powerless I was because there was no police to save us," said the producer, Mohammed Fadel Fahmy. "I was worried that they were going to rape her."
What should also worry him is that the police might even want to help them.
Someone shouted to Fahmy that there was a nearby car, and he brought the “spy” into the vehicle, which belonged to a television crew.

“When Margaret Warner, a correspondent with the PBS program ‘Newshour’ managed to get the vehicle moving away from the crowd, men threw stones at the departing vehicle,” the journalist said.

"They were animals," said Amer.

The rioters also attacked Egyptian journalists, including a reporter for Egyptian state television. Many correspondents ran for their lives.

After the brutal and vulgar assault on CBS correspondent Logan, the Uncoverage.net website noted, “The assault on Lara Logan illustrates just how much order has recently broken down in the MidEast region which is now far more dangerous for Westerners.”
And let's not be surprised if that's soon to be the fate of Libya. Yes, those repugnant rioters are animals.

IF OBAMA WAS A POET, WOULD HE KNOW IT?

THE FALL OF THE WEST?: GREECE AND JERUSALEM- THE CRADLES OF OUR CIVILIZATION - ARE UNDER SIMULTANEOUS ATTACK

MARKET ORACLE (UK):
1. Greek default now appears to be imminent and the inevitable is happening in regard to the Eurozone given that the Germans hold the trump cards;

2. Key sources at the Bundesbank in Frankfurt and Bundestag's finance committee in Berlin suggest feverish preparations underway to prepare for Greek default;

3. We have warned about this step-by-step Eurozone break-up scenario for the last several years, since before the start of the global financial crisis in 2007;

4. Monetary union without fiscal union was always going to be a recipe for Eurozone chaos which is now manifest in the bond markets;

5. While the focus is on dilating bond yields, the Eurozone crisis is likely to unfold dramatically with unanticipated consequences for many European banks as:

a. both confidence-in-the-market and share prices decline;

b. tier-1 capital ratios erode; and

c. non-performing loans continue to escalate;

6. As several European banks arrive at the brink of failure simultaneously they are likely to be left with no choice other than to:

a. merge with each other;

b. break up and be sold in parts; or

c. receive capital injections from their own government to:

i. nationalise;

ii. re-capitalise; or

iii. shore up their reserves;

7. Each government is going to have to fall back on its own national resources which may or may not be sufficient for the losses incurred in their banking system with trans-national exposures;

8. In the meantime, interbank lending and trading between financial counterparties may demonstrate freezing-up similar to the aftermath of:

a. the Lehman Brothers collapse in New York on September 15th, 2008; or

b. the Rothschild-owned Creditanstalt bank collapse in Vienna on May 11th, 1931;

both of which exacerbated the global financial crisis at the time and ultimately set off a "nuclear-chain-reaction" of events that led to multiple financial institution failures and near-failures as ripples cascaded;

9. The mi2g Intelligence Unit and ATCA 5000 Research and Analysis Wing's high level sources confirm a Eurozone crisis is now in the making triggered by a Greek default not just from within European capitals but also American and Asian key capitals; and

10. More critical updates are arriving by the hour as financial fears in regard to the viability of the Eurozone and key European banks continue to spread.
YIPES... GLOBAL ECONOMIC COLLAPSE...

JUST AS "THE ISLAMIST SPRING" BLOSSOMS AND JIHADISTS TAKE THEIR ATTACKS AGAINST ISRAEL TO NEW DIPLOMATIC AND MILITARY DEPTHS VIA DURBAN 3, THE UNILATERAL STATEHOOD PLOY, AND EXPLICIT TURKISH PROVOCATIONS.

AND JUST AS THE IAEA ESSENTIALLY ADMITS THAT IRAN IS NUKE-WARHEAD CAPAPLE.

STAY TUNED...

BOLD SEASIDE ATTACK BY ISLAMISTS IN KENYA?

NYTIMES:
A boatload of Somali gunmen attacked an exclusive beachside resort in Kenya on Sunday, killing a British tourist and kidnapping his wife before racing back into Somalia, Western diplomats said.

American officials were initially concerned that that attack might have been connected to the Sept. 11 anniversary and that the gunmen were Islamist militants looking for Americans.

But by Sunday evening Western diplomats were leaning away from that theory, though they said they were still uncertain about the motive of the attack.

The beachside resort, Kiwayu Safari Village, is just south of the Somali border and one of the priciest destinations in Kenya, where guests stay in $1300-a-night bungalows at the water’s edge and are summoned to sumptuous feasts at night by the trumpet of a conch shell. Prince William and Mick Jagger are said to have vacationed here.

According to Western diplomats, the gunmen attacked the resort under the cover of darkness, zooming up to the beach in a small skiff shortly after midnight on Sunday.

It is not clear how the British tourist was killed but officials said the gunmen sped away with the dead man’s wife, heading toward Ras Kamboni, Somalia, a well-known hide-out for Islamist militants.

NO ISLAMISM HERE. SURE. WHY WOULD ANYONE SUSPECT THAT, ANYHOW? ONLY IRRATIONAL MUSLIM-HATING RACISTS.

AND MOHAMED AND BINLADEN AND ZAWAHIRI AND THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD AND THE SUPREME COUNCIL OF IRAN... THEY WERE OR ARE ALL MISUNDERSTANDERS OF ISLAM.

YEAH, SURE.

THE LAST 4 MOVES IN THE GLOBAL LEFTIST/ISLAMIST EFFORT TO DESTROY ISRAEL ARE ABOUT TO BE SPRUNG

IN CASE YOU WEREN'T PAYING CLOSE ATTENTION, HERE'S EXACTLY WHAT'S BEEN GOING DOWN:
  • FIRST, OBAMA DEMANDED A HALT TO ALL "SETTLEMENT" CONSTRUCTION - EVEN IN JERUSALEM.
  • THEN, CLAIMING GAZA WAS UNDER SIEGE AND STARVING, LEFTISTS - (SOME OF WHOM ARE OLD FRIENDS AND SUPPORTERS OF OBAMA) - AND ISLAMISTS ORGANIZED FLOTILLAS TO GAZA TO DE-LEGITIMIZE ISRAEL'S SECURITY CONCERNS AND HELP ARM HAMAS; ONE BOAT IN A SECOND WAVE IS EVEN CALLED "THE AUDACITY OF HOPE". WITH THE MAVI MARMARA, THE TURKISH GOVERNMENT IN COORDINATION WITH TERRORISTS INSTIGATED VIOLENCE IN ORDER TO CREATE A SITUATION THEY COULD LATER EXPLOIT.
  • THEN, OBAMA SIDED WITH FATAH AND DEMANDED ISRAEL RETURN TO 1967 BORDERS - WITH SLIGHT ADJUSTMENTS.
  • THEN - AFTER YEARS OF BS - THE UN INVESTIGATORS FINALLY HANDED OVER INDICTMENTS OF THE HIZBALAH MURDERERS WHO ASSASSINATED LEBANESE PM HARIRI - AND NOTHING HAPPENED AS A RESULT.
    • THEN, OBAMA OPENLY SIDED WITH THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD AND DEMANDED MUBARAK RESIGN.
  • TURKEY TOSSED ISRAEL'S AMBASSADORS OUT AND OPENLY THREATENED HOSTILE MILITARY PROVOCATIONS.
  • EGYPT'S RULERS STOOD BY AS ISLAMISTS ATTACKED THE ISRAELI EMBASSY; ISRAEL'S AMBASSADORIAL STAFF FLED EGYPT.
  • ISLAMISTS IN JORDAN ANNOUNCED TODAY THAT THEY WILL DO THE SAME THING TO THE ISRAELI EMBASSY IN AMMAN ON THURSDAY OF THIS WEEK.
  • ALREADY ANNOUNCED "COMING ATTRACTIONS":
    • (1) THE DURBAN CONFERENCE IN NYC OPENS IN 10 DAYS.
    • (2) THE UNILATERAL STATEHOOD MOVE BY SO-CALLED "PALESTINIANS" IN NYC BEGINS IN TWO WEEKS.
    OBAMA, THE LEFT, AND THE ISLAMISTS HAVE - STEP-BY-STEP AND ACCORDING TO A WELL-PLANNED AND EXECUTED STRATEGY, PUT ISRAEL AND THE WORLD ON THE PRECIPICE OF ARMAGEDDON.

    THE LAST OF THE FINAL FOUR MOVES WILL BE:

    (3) A UNSC RESOLUTION CONDEMNING ISRAEL THAT OBAMA ABSTAINS ON, AND

    (4) IN RESPONSE TO ISRAEL'S DEFENSIVE MOVES AGAINST TURKISH NAVY, NATO AND FORCES UNDER THE AEGIS OF THE UNSC ATTACK ISRAEL - IN THE NAME OF PEACE, OF COURSE, JUST AS SAMANTHA POWER WISHED FOR IN 2002, (AND AS WAS WELL COVERED AGAIN IN 2008 WHEN SHE BECAME A KEY ADVISOR TO OBAMA).


    STAY TUNED.

    A LOT OF THIS SHIT IS GOING TO HIT THE FAN IN THE NEXT 3 WEEKS.

    JUST AS THE GLOBAL ECONOMY MELTS DOWN.

    SIGH

    BREAKING: INVESTIGATORS DISCOVER ANOTHER ARCHITECT WITH MANY TIES TO ISLAMISTS IS ONE OF THE DESIGNERS OF THE FLIGHT 93 MEMORIAL

    HERE'S MORE PROOF THAT THE FLIGHT 93 MEMORIAL HAS BEEN HIJACKED BY DHIMMIS.

    THIS SHALL NOT STAND.

    ISLAMIST THUGGERY ON THE RISE EVEN IN "MODERATE" JORDAN

    ... Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned...

    FRAGMENT: YEATS/THE SECOND COMING
    UNLIKE HIS FATHER AND GRANDFATHER - WHO FOUGHT THE ISLAMISTS - KING ABDULLAH 2 OF JORDAN HAS SPENT THE LAST YEAR APPEASING THE ISLAMISTS.

    WHAT IS THE RESULT?

    THE THUGS EFFECTIOVELY RULE JORDAN.

    HERE'S PROOF:
    Arabic media is reporting that Jordanian groups plan to copy what happened in Egypt and break into and close down the Israel embassy in Amman, Jordan this Thursday evening.

    The Facebook invite page already has a thousand people who say they will attend.

    It appears that this is being organized by the Islamic Action Front, a branch of the Muslim Brotherhood
    ISRAEL IS ONCE AGAIN COMPLETELY SURROUNDED BY GENOCIDAL ISLAMO-FASCISTS COMMITTED TO HER DESTRUCTION.

    SCUMBAG COWARDS AND THIEVES LIKE KING ABDULLAH 2 WOULD RATHER SAVE THEIR OWN SKINS THAN DO WHAT IS RIGHT AND SUFFER POVERTY OR DEATH.

    ALL THE SO-CALLED "KING" WILL HAVE ACCOMPLISHED IS BEING EATEN BY THE CROCODILE A LITTLE LATER RATHER THAN SOONER.

    ISRAEL IS UNDER GLOBAL ASSAULT - AND NOT EVEN THE OBAMA IS DOING A DANG THING.

    YEA: THE VERY PEOPLE OBAMA AIDED ARE BEHIND AL THIS:

    THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD - WHO WERE INVITED TO OBAMA'S CAIRO SPEECH EVEN AS HE DIDN'T INVITE MUBARAK.

    THAT SAYS EVERYTHING.

    9/11/11 - WHAT WOULD REAGAN SAY

    BLOOMBERG HAS BANNED CLERGY AND FIRST RESPINDERS FROM THE TEN YEAR MEMORIAL OF 9/11.

    BLOOMBERG - WHO ACTIVELY AIDED THE GROUND ZERO MOSQUE.

    SICKENING. SICKENING DENIAL. SICKENING APPEASEMENT. SICKENING SUBMISSION.

    WHAT WOULDS REAGAN HAVE DONE? WHAT WOULD HE SAY?

    NY GUESS - ADAPTED FROM REAGAN'S TIME FOR CHOOSING SPEECH:
    Those who would trade our freedom for the soup kitchen of the welfare state have told us they have a utopian solution of peace without victory.

    They call their policy "MULTICULTURALISM." And they say if we'll only avoid any direct confrontation with the enemy, he'll forget his evil ways and learn to love us.

    All who oppose them are indicted as warmongers. They say we offer simple answers to complex problems. Well, perhaps there is a simple answer—not an easy answer—but simple: If you and I have the courage to tell our elected officials that we want our national policy based on what we know in our hearts is morally right.

    We cannot buy our security, our freedom from the threat of the bomb by committing an immorality so great as saying to a billion human beings now enslaved UNDER ISLAMISM, "Give up your dreams of freedom because to save our own skins, we're willing to make a deal with your slave masters." Alexander Hamilton said, "A nation which can prefer disgrace to danger is prepared for a master, and deserves one." Now let's set the record straight. There's no argument over the choice between peace and war, but there's only one guaranteed way you can have peace—and you can have it in the next second—surrender.

    Admittedly, there's a risk in any course we follow other than this, but every lesson of history tells us that the greater risk lies in appeasement, and this is the specter our well-meaning liberal friends refuse to face—that their policy of MULTICULTURALISM is appeasement, and it gives no choice between peace and war, only between fight or SUBMISSION.

    If we continue to accommodate, continue to back and retreat, TO SUBMIT - eventually we have to face the final demand—the ultimatum. And what then—when THE ISLAMISTS HAVE TOLD THEIR FOLOWERS THAT THEY KNOW what our answer will be? THEY HAVE SAID that we're retreating under the pressure of GLOBAL JIHAD, and someday when the time comes to deliver the final ultimatum, our surrender will be voluntary, because by that time we will have been weakened from within spiritually, morally, and economically. THEY BELIEVE this because from our side THEY'VE heard voices pleading for "peace at any price" or ... or as one commentator put it, he'd rather "live on his knees than die on his feet."

    And therein lies the road to war, because those voices don't speak for the rest of us.

    You and I know and do not believe that life is so dear and peace so sweet as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery. If nothing in life is worth dying for, when did this begin—just in the face of this enemy?

    Or should Moses have told the children of
    Israel to live in slavery under the pharaohs? Should Christ have refused the cross? Should the patriots at Concord Bridge have thrown down their guns and refused to fire the shot heard 'round the world?

    The martyrs of history were not fools, and our honored dead who gave their lives to stop the advance of the Nazis didn't die in vain.

    Where, then, is the road to peace? Well it's a simple answer after all.


    You and I have the courage to say to our enemies, "There is a price we will not pay." "There is a point beyond which they must not advance."

    And this—this is the meaning in the phrase of Barry Goldwater's "peace through strength." Winston Churchill said, "The destiny of man is not measured by material computations. When great forces are on the move in the world, we learn we're spirits—not animals." And he said, "There's something going on in time and space, and beyond time and space, which, whether we like it or not, spells duty."


    You and I have a rendezvous with destiny.

    We'll preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man on earth, or we'll sentence them to take the last step into a thousand years of darkness.
    WHERE IS OUR REAGAN? WHERE IS OUR CHURCHILL? WE SEEM TO HAVE TOO MANY CHAMBERLAINS AND BLOOMBERGS.

    NEVER FORGET

    Set to the music of Samuel Barber's "Agnus Dei" from Adagio for Strings:



    Leftist though he may be, Bruce Springsteen's "You're Missing" reminds us of the personal devastation wrought by Muslim terrorists on 9/11:



    For this tenth anniversary of 9/11, as Barack Hussein Obama and a whole raft of others try to sing kumbaya with the Islamic world, we see that the left would like for all of us to forget 9/11 and ignore the still-present threat of Islamic terrorism.

    I won't.

    Not ever.

    No matter how much revisionism is tossed out there for the dhimmis to suck up — even as the Ground Zero Mosque rises above the World Trade Center in New York City on the occasion of the tenth anniversary of 9/11 is used as a fundraiser for that Islamic center.

    Read the names of the fallen. And take time to watch this excellent flash presentation, and gaze upon the faces of the fallen.

    Never forget what happened on that day of cerulean and cloudless skies — cloudless until the smoke billowed from three sites: the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and Shanksville.

    Never forget that on this tenth anniversary of 9/11, by order of Mayor Bloomberg, the first responders on that day will be denied admission to the 9/11 National Memorial in New York City. The President has turned the commemoration of 9/11 into a day of community service instead of a solemn commemoration that focuses on the events of that day (Alinsky Rule #6). And a few weeks before 9/11, the Empire State Building was, once again, bathed in the light of Islamic green. Not to mention this inclusion in the 9/11 Memorial in New York City: this hardhat with an Obama symbol on it.

    The attack on the Pentagon is all but forgotten in several respects. The official memorial built in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, is a betrayal.

    9/11 is morphing into stories about how Muslims are victims; see this Associated Press video. And the Washington Post has been publishing the series entitled "Under Suspicion: Muslims in America."

    We are watching revisionist history taking place.

    Never forget that human remains are still being identified through DNA testing, even ten years later. See THIS STORY in the August 24, 2011 edition of the Telegraph. Ernest James is the 1629th victim to be identified; some 1121 victims have not been identified, and the forensic experts are not yet halfway through the 21,000 fragments of human remains retrieved for testing. Many human remains have not been, and never will be, recovered.

    Remember 9/11, that day of horror: where you were, what you were doing before and after the attacks, the shock and the sorrow and the rage you felt.

    And remember that the Sons of Allah would again do the same — or worse — if they could.

    AS LEHMAN WAS TO THE USA FINANICAL CRISIS, GREECE IS TO THE COMING GLOBAL FINANCIAL CRISIS

    BETTER BRACE YOURSELVES FOLKS....

    ANOTHER SCENARIO: NIGHT CHOPPERS

    After a small attack in upper Manhattan staged as a distraction at around 2AM, three small black unlighted home-built 2-man choppers - painstakingly constructed in secret over the last few years in garages and now loaded with explosives and nuclear material - are simultaneously launched from Jersey, Staten Island and Queens at 3AM and are over Manhattan in minutes.

    Even if they were shot down, they'd cause unbelievable damage and panic.

    Just saying...

    "FOR THE GOOD OF THE NATION" - THE SPEECH OBAMA SHOULD DELIVER, AND THE SOONER THE BETTER!

    NEW YORK TIMES: THE DEMOCRATS ARE FINALLY GETTING IT:

    Democrats are expressing growing alarm about President Obama’s re-election prospects and, in interviews, are openly acknowledging anxiety about the White House’s ability to strengthen the president’s standing over the next 14 months.

    Elected officials and party leaders at all levels said their worries have intensified as the economy has displayed new signs of weakness. They said the likelihood of a highly competitive 2012 race is increasing as the Republican field, once dismissed by many Democrats as too inexperienced and conservative to pose a serious threat, has started narrowing to two leading candidates, Mitt Romney and Rick Perry, who have executive experience and messages built around job creation.

    And in a campaign cycle in which Democrats had entertained hopes of reversing losses from last year’s midterm elections, some in the party fear that Mr. Obama’s troubles could reverberate down the ballot into Congressional, state and local races.

    WHAT CAN BE DONE?

    OBAMA COULD STAND DOWN.

    HERE'S THE SPEECH HE SHOULD DELIVER - (IT HAS ALL THE NARCISSISTIC TOUCHES THAT WOULD APPEAL TO HIM):

    My fellow Americans:

    The problems we face now here at home and across the globe are in a critical stage. Partisan politics have no place in times like this. And neither do personal agendas.

    As it has in the past, the entire world is looking to the United States of America to lead humanity back from the brink of global war and darkness and into the fields of light, peace, and prosperity.

    American presidents have always borne this responsibility with humility and courage. And by drawing inspiration from those who have served before me, I have tried to meet these challenges with the same determination and optimism.

    But these are different times.

    Heightened partisanship and a non-stop 24 hour news cycle dominated by "gotcha" yellow journalism has made statesmanship more difficult than ever - despite the world needing it more than ever.

    Partisan posturing has become especially pernicious recently, as we have entered an election cycle. Now, the bipartisan compromises and non-partisan strategies we most need are all but impossible.

    I see only one way to erase the partisan divide which is preventing the effective actions our nation - and the world - are crying out for.

    And that is why tonight I am announcing that I will not seek a second term.

    By removing myself from the partisan political equation I hope to elevate the debate, remove the biggest stumbling block to national unity, and bring the full force of this great and united nation back together again so that together we can meet the challenges we now face.

    I could do no less. Personal ambition is meaningless compared to advancing the cause of liberty and prosperity and to protecting the American Dream.

    It has been my honor to lead the Democrat party the last three years. I pass that responsibility to others. From this day forward, I have only one job. It is not personal or political. It transcends politics. It is purely humanitarian.

    I am sure with this new non-political and non-personal approach members of Congress and I will rise to the occasion - in unified action, as the Congress and past presidents have always done since our nation's founding.

    Now, we have one job to do - together: Bind the nation's wounds and roll up our sleeves.

    I look forward to it with all my heart, with what wisdom God has given me, and with the courage I get from your support and prayers.

    Thank You.

    And God Bless America.

    WELL A GUY CAN DREAM, CAN'T HE!?

    I KNOW:

    IT'S NOT THE SPEECH BILL AYERS OR AXELROD OR TRUMKA OR RAHM OR HOFFA WOULD WRITE FOR HIM, BUT... A GUY CAN DREAM, CAN'T HE!

    UPDATE: A WEEK LATER AND THE CHICAGO TRIB AGREES!

    BASED ON THE GENERAL TENOR OF EVENTS THE LAST FEW WEEKS, I THINK AN ATTACK IS LIKELY TO OCCUR

    DIRTY BOMBS GOING OFF IN DC AND NYC WOULD FIT INTO THE GENERAL TENOR OF THINGS LATELY:
    • TIDAL WAVES,
    • NUCLEAR MELTDOWNS
    • EARTHQUAKES,
    • STOCK MARKET CRASHES,
    • SOVEREIGN DEBT CRISES,
    • CURRENCY CRASHES,
    • THE SO-CALLED ARAB SPRING,
    • THE IMPENDING UNILATERAL DECLARATION OF STATEHOOD BY THE SO-CALLED PALESTINIANS,
    • THE DURBAN CONFERENCE,
    • THE IMPENDING CLASH BETWEEN TURKEY AND ISRAEL,
    • IRAN GETTING NUKES...
    ... AND SO ON.

    IT'S NOT AT ALL LIKE TEN YEARS AGO, WHEN THE WORLD SEEMED TO BE PEACEFUL AND THE BIGGEST ISSUE ON THE PRESIDENT'S PLATE WAS EDUCATION REFORM.

    I KNOW THE BRAVE MEN ANS WOMEN CHARGED WITH PROTECTING US AND PREVENTING AN ATTACK ARE DOING EVERYTHING THEY CAN.

    BUT IT'S SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE TO BE EVERYWHERE ALL THE TIME AND BE 100% PERFECT.

    IN FACT, WE'VE BEEN LUCKY UNTIL NOW - AND ESCAPED THE LAST FEW ATTEMPTS UNSCATHED FROM SIMPLE LUCK.

    I PRAY WE ARE LUCKY AGAIN.

    I AM SITTING HERE A MILE OR SO FROM GROUND ZERO AND TIMES SQUARE AND PENN STATION AND GRAND CENTRAL TERMINAL AND THE MIDTOWN TUNNEL AND THE LINCOLN TUNNEL AND I AM PRAYING WE WILL BE OKAY.

    WE'RE HEADED FOR ANOTHER RENDEZVIOUS WITH DESTINY

    Un-refinance-able global sovereign debt and mortgages seem to be bringing the world financial system closer to collapse, uncontrollably.

    The so-called Arab Spring seems to be revealing itself to everyone as a reactionary wave of uncontrollable jihadist violence.

    These forces - as Northern Seer suggested in another comment thread - seem like an out of control speeding locomotive about to go off the rails - just as it approaches a dilapidated trestle - spanning a chasm of infinite depth, and there are suicide bombers on board who have also booby-trapped the brakes!

    What - if anything - can possibly stop what seems like the inevitable impending economic crash and clash of civilizations? Is there a person anywhere who can stand athwart these twin crises and wrestle the conflicting and destructive forces and impulses and bring us sanity, dignity, peace, prosperity and justice? Or is the impending horror something must we travel through in order to... learn our lesson... once and for all?

    More and more it seems like the latter.

    And for the second time today, I must cite this:

    ... The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
    Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
    The best lack all conviction, while the worst
    Are full of passionate intensity.
    Surely some revelation is at hand;
    Surely the Second Coming is at hand.

    I think all we need to do - each of us - is to find once again the courage to defend and employ our first principles.

    Like the Maccabees.

    Like the Minutemen.

    Like the heroes in our current war - from the folks on Flight 93 to the elite members of our Special Forces.

    They didn't retreat from their principles despite the odds. All won despite the costs - and in so doing bequeathed us a better world.

    Sigh.

    If this commitment and courage fails to stop the impending catastrophes, then at the very least they will be what empowers us to rebuild a better world.

    Still, I long for a global Judah Maccabee-George Washington-Todd Beamer all rolled up into one to rally us to be our best.

    Reagan seemed to have what what it takes:



    Obama doesn't.

    On the world stage, I think Bibi Netanyahu does. And Geert Wilders. Two enormously brave leaders from two tiny countries barely in control of their own destinies.

    No leader in any major nation today has what it takes. There's no Churchill. Not even a Thatcher. No Reagan.

    Or is there?

    Maybe we will only find out who has what it takes AFTER the shit hits the fan...

    Sigh.
