Reality is a dish served cold

It seems that Israel is unimpressed by the hope and change montra of Barack Obama.

“Israel does not take orders from [Barack] Obama,” Environmental Protection Minister Gilad Erdan (Likud) said on Monday, responding to an earlier statement by the US president in which he reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to all previous understandings between Israel and the Palestinians, including the process launched at Annapolis, Maryland, in 2007.
Erdan, who is also the liaison between the cabinet and the Knesset, praised Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman (Israel Beiteinu), who only last week said Israel was not bound by the Annapolis talks because it had never been approved by the cabinet or the Knesset.
“In voting for [Prime Minister Binyamin] Netanyahu the citizens of Israel have decided that they will not become the US’s 51st state,” said Erdan, who was representing the coalition in a Knesset discussion of Lieberman’s controversial statements. He added, however, that “Obama is a friend of Israel and the United States is an important ally, and everything between us will be the result of communication.”

As the title of the post states, reality is a dish served cold; the crew of the of the USS Liberty found this out on June 8, 1967. When Israeli forces supposedly accidentally bombed one of our ships during the six day war. I say “supposedly” because much information has surfaced in the last couple of years, that the bombing was totally intentional. Much, if not all of this information has been suppressed by the main stream media and by the United States Government up until very recently.

I have always held the opinion that Israel does not see the United States as an true ally. But more of a useful idiot. Because of the overwhelming support by Christian Zionists who somehow or another see Israel has their rightful home; which if someone actually did study their Bible and learn how to interpret it properly, they would see the Zionism is nothing more than a man-made lie to produce money for a sin-depraved Nation and for a group of people going to straight to hell for rejecting Christ as their messiah.

However, there is a good reason for the continuance of the furtherance of this manufactured lie; Money. The money raised by the Zionist shills is good for Church Business and good for the shills that peddle this idiotic doctrine. Having said all the that, it is good to see that for a change that one of Israel’s leaders has finally decided to speak freely about what Americas real role in Israel really is, instead of the well manufactured lie that they have been peddling to the Christian World for so long.

The Federal Government cracks down on the Scam Mortgage Loaners , except for the most important one

So much for enforcing the law….:

The Obama administration has already unveiled its plan to stem the rising home foreclosure rate, but with foreclosure scams also increasing, the administration today announced a multi-agency effort to crack down on scams that prey on struggling homeowners.
“Just as this administration has intensified our efforts to help American homeowners, those who would seek to prey on the most vulnerable are intensifying their tactics as well, often through purported mortgage modification and foreclosure relief companies,” Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner said at an announcement in Washington. “These are predatory schemes designed to rob Americans of their savings and potentially their homes.”
The FBI is currently investigating more than 2,100 mortgage fraud cases, up 400 percent from five years ago

Hip Hip Hooray, Obama is enforcing the law! Well, perhaps not. 🙄

Judicial Watch reports that the two biggest corrupt lenders; Fannie Mae and Freddie Mack, have broken the law for years. What excatly is President Teleprompter and his attack Dog Tim Geithner AKA Eddie Haskel doing about this?

*crickets*

You guessed it! Not a damn thing……. So much for all the “Hope and Change” and a new direction in America. As I long suspected a very long time ago, it is simply more of the same from an empty suit, who’s big on speeches and low on substance.

Update: Hello to all the Freepers reading this! 😀 Please take a look around, you might just like it here. 🙂

Obama says "We're not at war with Islam"

I really don’t get why this is new, as Bush said this as well. But Here goes!:

Barack Obama, making his first visit to a Muslim nation as president, declared Monday the United States “is not and will never be at war with Islam.”
Urging a greater partnership with the Islamic world in an address to the Turkish parliament, Obama called the country an important U.S. ally in many areas, including the fight against terrorism. He devoted much of his speech to urging a greater bond between Americans and Muslims, portraying terrorist groups such as al Qaida as extremists who do not represent the vast majority of Muslims.
“Let me say this as clearly as I can,” Obama said. “The United States is not and never will be at war with Islam. In fact, our partnership with the Muslim world is critical … in rolling back a fringe ideology that people of all faiths reject.”
The U.S. president is trying to mend fences with a Muslim world that felt it had been blamed by America for the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.
via Obama declares US not at war with Islam- AP.

From what I understand there are some that are not happy about the statement underlined above. Ed Morrissey weighs in here:

Obama spoke in the tradition established by Bush over the last seven-plus years of emphasizing that America did not declare war on Islam. That’s been obvious through our partnership with Islamic nations, such as Iraq, Turkey, Afghanistan, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia, just to name a few. And he’s right; the last thing we would want to do would be to declare war on a billion people just on the basis of their religion. The more we can keep the Muslims on the sidelines, the better off we are in fighting against the radicals.
However, the AP wants to pretend that this is some new effort by the US to assure Muslims of our intentions. It decidedly is not, and perhaps a mention that Bush tried making these same assurances for almost his entire presidency would be in order here.

Well Ed, When your name is George and you are a Christian white man from Texas, it is a bit harder to sell that idea. Let’s face it; Obama is a black man with a Islamic middle name, it’s just going to be easier to sell that idea for President Obama; than it was for President Bush. I believe the majority of “Americanized” Muslims understood this, but it was the Muslims abroad that felt it was an attack on the Islamic Faith.

I just hope that Obama is able to make that sell. Because the last thing we need is war with Islam itself.

Honestly, When are Journalists and Bloggers going to get a clue?

This is going to most likely be with of those kind of posts, that is going to cause a bunch of people to either like me a whole lot, or it is going to going to cause a good number of people to hate my guts. Either way, I could honestly give two shits, because I am just sick and tired of the damned media and the damned Blogosphere reporting half truths and outright bullshit. Yeah, I am in on of those kind of a moods right now. So, be warned this might veer off into bad language and poor manners.

I was over looking at the HotAir headlines and I saw this:

Surprise: Pittsburgh cop-killer was anti-semitic, white supremacist, Alex Jones fan

My initial reaction was, “Oh Shit… here we go, profiling someone who most likely isn’t anything like, what they’re trying to say.” Needless to say, my gut feeling was correct. The link leads over to Charles Johnson’s Blog, Little Green Footballs, who gleefully reports a story written by the Pittsburgh Post Gazette:

Richard Andrew Poplawski was a young man convinced the nation was secretly controlled by a cabal that would eradicate freedom of speech, take away his guns and use the military to enslave the citizenry.
His online profile suggests someone at once lonely and seething. He wrote of burning the backs of both of his hands, the first time with a cigarette, the second time for symmetry. He subscribed to conspiracy theories and, by January 2007, was posting photographs of his tattoos on white supremacist Web site Stormfront. Among his ambitions: “to accumulate enough ‘I punched that [expletive] so hard’ stories to match my old man.”
“Crazy to me is going through the motions,” he wrote on his MySpace profile three years ago. “Crazy to me is letting each day slip past you. Crazy is being insignificant. Crazy is being obscure, pointless.”
No longer obscure, the 22-year-old is charged in the worst police shooting in the modern history of Pittsburgh. No one is calling his actions anything but pointless.
“He was really into politics and really into the First and Second amendment. One thing he feared was he feared the gun ban because he thought that was going to take away peoples’ right to defend themselves. He never spoke of going out to murder or to kill,” said Edward Perkovic, who described himself as Mr. Poplawski’s lifelong best friend.
Mr. Poplawski’s view of guns and personal freedom took a turn toward the fringes of American politics. With Mr. Perkovic, he appeared to share a belief that the government was controlled from unseen forces, that troops were being shipped home from the Mideast to police the citizenry here, and that Jews secretly ran the country.
Believing most media were covering up important events, Mr. Poplawski turned to a far-right conspiracy Web site run by Alex Jones, a self-described documentarian with roots going back to the extremist militia movement of the early 1990s.
Around the same time, he joined Florida-based Stormfront, which has long been a clearinghouse Web site for far-right groups. He posted photographs of his tattoo, an eagle spread across his chest.
“I was considering gettin’ life runes on the outside of my calfs,” he wrote. Life runes are a common symbol among white supremacists, notably followers of The National Alliance, a neo-Nazi group linked to an array of violent organizations.

Seriously, does anyone do any kind of investigative journalism anymore? You see that line up there, that I have bolded and underlined? That is nothing more than a bunch of biased bullshit propaganda. I happen to have an account over at Stormfront.org, I use it for research purposes. I will be the first to tell you, that I do not agree with ALL of the stuff that is printed there. I will say this however, as I have written on this Blog many times, I have zero use for the Post Racial Racialism in this country, I also detest the identity politics of the left. I also whole heartedly reject the liberal idea of celebrating diversity. But I am just not wired to hate people, because skin color or race. I am sympathetic to the feelings of those over at Stormfront, I just disagree with their whole idea of a solution or their stance towards those of a difference race or color. My battle is purely a political one, not a racial one.

The reason I am bringing all this up, is because I saw the article about this guy supposedly being a “White Nationalist” and so, I went to stormfront and created a thread mentioning this. Very quickly it was pointed out to me, that this guy had posted all of one or two postings over at stormfront. A posting showing off a tatoo. Can someone tell me please, when did making a single posting over on a Forum, showing off a tattoo makes someone a hardcore white nationalist?

There are many people here to blame. The Post Gazette for not fact checking thier article. Blogger Charles Johnson for not checking this story out, and finally Blogger Allahpundit or Ed, who posted this headline over at Hotair. Come on people, we can do better than this. I can understand the liberal mainstream media, but Conservative Bloggers?

I mean, I have no idea what this guys true motivation was, but I can tell you, he was most likely not a true blue white nationalist. I can also tell you, that the White Nationalists do not, nor have they ever, condoned this sort of behavior. As user “PerturbedCitizen” of stormfront says, and I am sure that this can be taken as a statement from the site itself:

My deepest respect to the three fallen heroes, who do more for our country and the future of our kind on a daily basis than most people dream of. This board is not a meeting place for cop killers and psychos. Stormfront exists to discuss the future of the very families and the people men like those officers left behind. To honor a race of people that shape our world which those officers were very much a part of. They are the brightest and most powerful examples of what we cherish and devote our lives to protecting and paying tribute to.
To the public servants who wake up every morining and put your lives on the line to make my country a better place for my family to live, I salute you.
To the degenerates who do good folks harm and make our world a darker place, the time for honoring yourselves is coming to an end.

Now, on to a related subject. It seems that we have some idiots on the far left, who are now using this tragic event to take unwarranted potshots at Bloggers and media types on the right. HotAir’s Ed Morrissey points out this little gem taken from Kos’s Twitter feed:

kos-tweet

Now this is the same crap that has went on in the past, when Mr. Kos said screw them and then tried to cover it up.

Tommy Christapher Weighs in here:

Dana Houle is a Daily Kos frontpager, not some tinfoil diarist, and Markos is the public face of the liberal blogosphere. Granted, his influence isn’t what it used to be, but he is still the most recognizable, the most closely-associated liberal blogger out there.
When I saw his re-Tweet, I was stunned, and I hadn’t even heard about the Pittsburgh shooting yet. I thought he was talking about the shooting in Binghamton. When I looked back at Houle’s Tweet, and I found the story of the three policemen who were killed yesterday, I could not believe my eyes. As you can see, I tried to get Markos to explain his re-Tweet, unable to believe that these two would be joking about this at all, let alone hours after the tragedy. …
Maybe there’s something wrong with me, but I think this is shameful. This is the kind of thing I would probably delete at Political Machine. I don’t even see the humor in it, even setting aside the heartless ghoulishness involved.

One word to sum this up, well, actually two; Fucking Pathetic. It is no wonder that Time Magazine basically dismissed the DailyKos as an irrelevant Blog. I do not think that Irrelevant even begins to cover the surface of those ignorant bastards. But I will refrain from ranting anymore about them, they’re not worth the effort and bandwidth wasted.

Update: Right Voices links in, Thank you! So does Memeorandum, who has me on the list of blogs to scan, Thanks to Gabe as well.

Another Police Shooting in Pittsburgh, Man Paranoid about Obama, Liberal Bloggers Blame Conservative Media

This is sad. 🙁

Pittsburgh police say a man wearing a bulletproof vest opened fire on officers during a domestic disturbance call, killing three of them.
Police chief Nate Harper says the motive for Saturday’s shooting isn’t clear.
Friends say the gunman recently had been upset about losing his job and that he feared the Obama administration was poised to ban guns.
The three dead officers are Eric Kelly, Stephen Mayhle and Paul Sciullo III. Kelly had been on the force for 14 years and the other two only two years each.
Another officer was shot in the hand and a fifth broke his leg on a fence.
The gunman, 23-year-old Richard Poplawski, was arrested after a four-hour standoff.

via FOXNews.com – Shooter Wearing Bulletproof Vest Guns Down 3 Pittsburgh Officers, Upset Over Losing Job

It’s sad, but it is also sick; it seems now that some Liberal Bloggers are now blaming the Conservative media for this shooting. Which I think is a bunch of bull crap. As much as I know that it ticks off the left, but the truth of the matter is this. If someone is going to grab a gun and kill someone, they are going to do it regardless if they listen to Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Randi Rhoads or Stephanie Miller.

The point here is this, this dude and the dude in New York had issues, seriously bad mental issues. The sad part is, that he had access to firearms. The State of Michigan and I assume the State of New York and Pennsylvania have very good gun laws that keep people from getting guns that have diagnosed mental illnesses. However, it cannot stop people who have issues that are not diagnosed. I mean, the Government is not a mind reader. The sad part is, that Liberals are going to use this as some sort of sick excuse to rally for more Governmental regulation and stripping of our Gun rights. I am afraid that is this simply not the answer.

The truth of the matter is that there are mentally ill people out there and they are going to do stuff like this, it is just a fact of life. I just do not buy the idiotic notion that the Conservative media, Glenn Back, Sean Hannity or any of the rest of them are to blame. There are millions of sane, rational people that listen to these programs on a daily basis and they have never done anything stupid like this.

Another thing that highly annoys me is this; is how the Media is trying to engage in the profiling of the shooter in New York. He is being described is a quiet type, who harbored some hatred towards America. Well, let me be the first to say that, I am, in fact, a quiet type. I’m not a Fred Flintstone type. I keep to myself, I’m not very outgoing at all. Hey, I am unemployed, except for this Blog. I don’t drive around wasting gas, it is called being smart and frugal. I feel like people with personalities like mine are simply unfairly being singled out. There’s nothing wrong with being an introvert. We quiet people tend to be thinkers. I also, the portrait being painted about those who value their gun rights is totally unfair. I believe in the second amendment, if I were living along, I would own a gun, I would register it; as I believe in complying with the law.

I just do not understand why the Left Wing Media and the Liberal Bloggers are using two major tragedies like these to try and further an anti-gun agenda and a Conservative Media hysteria agenda. It does sort of remind me of the Jewish hysteria agenda that Hitler started in Germany.

Update: Flopping Aces makes a very valid point, in reaction to this here:

I’m sorry, didn’t hear that kind of statement when this happened.

Update #2: There is now a facebook page with a petition to get the shooting in PA; Richard Poplawski charged with Capital Murder. I’ve signed it, I suggest you do as well. No matter what political stripe you are, this guy commited murder. He should be punished with such.

Tragedy in New York: shooter enters Immigration Center opens fire

This is a horrible tragedy 🙁 :

Via Press Connects:

At least twelve people are dead after a gunman went on a shooting spree inside the American Civic Center in Binghamton, according to preliminary information from state police.
A federal law enforcement official who spoke on condition of anonymity told the Associated Press the shooter has been found dead in the building.
The law enforcement official said the gunman entered the building through the front while firing. He had already blocked the back door with his car.
At one point more than 40 hostages were being held in the building at 131 Front Street — 15 in a closet and 26 in the boiler room. At 2:40 p.m., Binghamton Police indicated the situation was over and that a SWAT team was making sure there were no people inside the building.
At 3 p.m., Binghamton Police Chief Joseph Zikuski said no one taken from the building is a suspect, including two men who were removed in plastic handcuffs. A report of a man fleeing the building was false, Zikuski said.
The building is currently secure, although the dead remain within it, Zikuski said. He would not say where in the building the bodies were located.
Sharpshooters from the Binghamton SWAT team were poised outside the building during the crisis, and the Endicott police bomb squad was also at the scene.
Scanner reports just before 1:30 p.m., indicate police were asking 26 people in the Civic Association to lie on the floor with the hands above their heads.
Police and ambulance crews began staging at Oak and Main Street, the site of the Binghamton High School, shortly after 10:30 a.m. today. Local apartments were evacuated and businesses, including a nearby nursing home, were placed under lockdown. The high school was also locked down.

I am writing about this to appeal to all political bloggers on all sides of the aisle. Please, let’s keep politics out of this, for the time being. This is not the time to engage in political dogmatic nonsense. This is a time of mourning for the families and the people in this area. I don’t think that it would be out of place to offer up a prayer for the familes involved in this horrific tragic event.

My personal prayers go out to all families of the victims. My God be with them all.

Justice is Served -Blagojevich, brother and top aides indicted

One again, I have faith in our Nation’s justice system:

Former Gov. Rod Blagojevich, his brother, and a former top fundraiser were among six men indicted today on political corruption charges, the U.S. attorney’s office in Chicago announced.
In addition to Rob Blagojevich, 53, and fundraiser Christopher Kelly, 50, charged were Lon Monk, 50, a lobbyist and former Blagojevich chief of staff; John Harris, 47, also a former chief of staff to Blagojevich; and William Cellini, 74, a Springfield insider for decades.
The sweeping indictment comes four months after Blagojevich was arrested and charged with engaging in pay-to-play politics in a major federal complaint that accused him of trading state jobs, contracts and regulatory favors for campaign contributions.

Let’s hope that this fool gets sent up the river for a long time.

Obama Bows to his Arab Masters

Seriously.

BRITAIN G20 PALACE

The Video:

Hmmmm, Maybe this woman was correct after all, it’s 0:53 into this video:

Disgraceful. President Obama should be impeached on charges of TREASON! For bowing to a foreign leader. The Bastard. 😡

Of course, when your middle name is Hussein and you will not release your original birth certificate, what else can one expect? Maybe he was paying homage to his REAL ethnic heritage? You can prove me wrong, Barry, anytime you like, by releasing the original. But we all know that Barry will not do that. Because he knows what he is hiding. 😡

How to really stop a G20 Protester

It seems that London is having a bit of a G20 Protester problem.

Via Times of London:

Anti-capitalist protesters broke into a branch of the Royal Bank of Scotland in Central London today as police used dogs and truncheons in an increasingly desperate attempt to control rioting on the eve of the G20 summit.
Windows were smashed and a group of demonstrators whose faces were covered by bandanas entered the building near the Bank of England, on the corner of Threadneedle Street and Bartholomew Lane.
As officers pushed protesters back, Scotland Yard said a series of officers entered the RBS building just after 2pm “in support of building security”.
With the standoff continuing, office furniture was being thrown out of the building’s window. Hundreds of protesters cheered as a blue office chair was used to smash one of the blacked-out branch windows.

Here’s how you handle hippy scum like these idiots:

Justice, American Style. It’s too bad that the rest of world cannot be like America.

AK-74’s the only cure for Liberal Hippie Stupidity.

Senator Ted Steven's Conviction Voided

There is a bunch of discussion in the Blogosphere regarding the voiding of the conviction of Alaskan Senator Ted Stevens. I do have an opinion on this, I will share it after the quote.

Via NPR:

The Justice Department on Wednesday asked a federal judge to drop all charges against former Sen. Ted Stevens of Alaska.
A jury convicted Stevens last fall of seven counts of lying on his Senate disclosure form in order to conceal $250,000 in gifts from an oil industry executive and other friends. Stevens was the longest-serving Republican in the Senate. However, he lost his bid for an eighth full term in office just days after he was convicted. Since then, charges of prosecutorial misconduct have delayed his sentencing and prompted defense motions for a new trial.
In a move first reported by NPR, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said he has decided to drop the case against Stevens rather than continue to defend the conviction in the face of persistent problems stemming from the actions of prosecutors.

There have been some very idiotic accusations by those on the far right, that this was a political move and that the Democrats somehow or another wanted this guy out and so on. There’s only one little problem with that. These charges were not level by the Justice Department under Eric Holder. They were issued by the Justice Department under Michael B. Mukasey, who of course, served at the behest of George W. Bush. Not to mention that there was some serious misconduct by some of persons involved, like the FBI and the prosecutors.

So, while it might be easy and convenient to blame the Democrats for this, I am quite afraid that those accusations are not founded in the truth. This was another one of the disasters, that was part of the rather sad process that was known as the Bush White House; and once again Obama’s White House is left to clean up the mess.

So, while as much as I dislike the Democratic Party’s Socialist Agenda; which is being implemented by the Obama Administration. I cannot sit here accuse the Democrats of something, that they had zero to do with. That would be abject foolishness, of which I want nothing to do with.
