More of that “Religion of Peace” at work.

Via Israel Today:

A mob of some 50 Palestinian Muslims stoned a group of Christian tourists atop Jerusalem’s Temple Mount on Sunday morning. Three of the Israeli police officers who acted to protect the Christian group were wounded by the stone-throwers.

Police arrested 11 Palestinians, several of them minors, for their role in the attack.

The attack is believed to have been instigated by the former Muslim mufti of Jerusalem, Ekrama Sabri, who told Palestinian media over the weekend that Jewish groups were planning to break into the mosques that occupy the holy compound and desecrate them.

Sabri urged all local Muslims to protect the mosques from “the Israeli conspiracy against the city and its holy places.”

Muslim religious figures regularly claim that Israel is plotting to destroy the Dome of the Rock and the Al Aqsa Mosque to pave the way for the rebuilding of the Jewish Temple, which the Muslims now insist never previously existed.

Because of the constant threat of Muslim violence, and despite the fact that the Temple Mount is the most holy place on earth to Jews and many Christians, the Israeli police comply with Muslim demands for harsh restrictions on non-Muslim visitors to the site. For instance, Jews and Christians are forbidden to carry Bibles atop the Temple Mount or to utter even silent prayers within its walls. Jews and Christians are regularly detained for violating these conditions.

In other violence, Palestinian terrorists operating out of the Gaza Strip fired a Grad-type missile at the southern Israel city of Beersheva on Saturday. The projectile landed in an open area just outside Beersheva and did not cause any injuries or damage. Two more short-range rockets hit nearby Israeli towns.

Palestinian forces fired at least two rockets at southern Israel – one at the coastal city of Ashkelon – on Friday, again causing no injuries or damage.

But-but-but-but they’re just peaceful Muslims! 🙄

The same damned peaceful Muslims who did this:

Remember this?

and this:

............and this?

These are the men who did the above, and Shanksville, Pa:

We should never forget what these men did, we should never forget thier race, their religion and why they did it to us, ever!

They were acting under the command of this man:

The ringleader. Who is now dead.

The liberals in this Country want to flush this event down the memory hole. They would rather blame Bush and Cheney for the attacks; and not the incompetence of Bill Clinton, which was the real cause of 9/11. Like his incompetence in rigging the housing market to fail, like it did. This is why I no longer vote Democratic Party; because those bastards are the reason why we are living in the police state hole that we live in now.

Some people cannot see that; and that’s their own darned fault. I’m no fool and I see things for what they really are. Terrorism is a threat and these same people CLAIM to want a two-state solution! Which is a lie of the devil, they want to see Israel pushed into the sea and the Jewish race exterminated from the earth, kind of like Hitler.

Remember this come November and vote accordingly.

 

 

Santorum’s Michigan lead down to 4%

Interesting:

The Republican race for President in Michigan has tightened considerably over the last week, with what was a 15 point lead for Rick Santorum down to 4. He leads with 37% to 33% for Mitt Romney, 15% for Ron Paul, and 10% for Newt Gingrich.

The tightening over the last week is much more a function of Romney gaining than Santorum falling. Santorum’s favorability spread of 67/23 has seen no change since our last poll, and his share of the vote has dropped only 2 points from 39% to 37%. Romney meanwhile has seen his net favorability improve 10 points from +10 (49/39) to +20 (55/35) and his vote share go from 24% to 33%.

What we’re seeing in Michigan is a very different story from Florida where Romney surged by effectively destroying his opponent’s image- here Romney’s gains have more to do with building himself up.

Groups Santorum has double digit leads with include Protestants (up 47-30), union members (up 43-23), Evangelicals (up 51-24), Tea Partiers (up 55-20), ‘very conservative’ voters (up 54-23), and men (up 40-28).

Romney is leading the field with women (38-34), seniors (42-34), moderates (35-24), ‘somewhat conservative’ voters (40-34), and Catholics (43-31).

Newt Gingrich’s continued presence in the race is helping Romney a lot. If he dropped 45% of his supporters would go to Santorum, compared to only 29% for Romney and it would push Santorum’s lead over Romney up to 42-33. 47% of primary voters think Gingrich should drop out while only 40% believe he should continue on, but he’s certainly not showing any indication he’ll leave.

Santorum’s advantage over Romney seems to be a reflection of voters being more comfortable with where he is ideologically. 48% of voters think Santorum has more similar beliefs to them, compared to only 32% who pick Romney on that question. 63% of primary voters think Santorum’s views are ‘about right’ compared to only 42% who say that for Romney. 37% believe that Romney is ‘too liberal.

It could be the fact that people from Michigan are beginning to realize that Santorum is a Religious extremist.  Which is fine, if you are a lowly blogger like myself. But when you are running for President of the United States; that can be a problem. Mitt Romney is more a moderate; but his Religion sucks. My issue with both of these guys is this; their religion, because you have one guy who is a part of what the Bible calls, “The Great Whore of Babylon” and then you have a guy who’s a part of the biggest false Christian cult since the Roman Catholic Church.  But as an protestant Christian, as a Fundamentalist Baptist, of this stripe here; both of these religions are a problem, and a big one at that! The question both of these candidates need to answer is this; of where do these two gentleman’s allegiances lie? Are they with the Roman Catholic Church or in Romney’s case, are they with the Mormon Church?

Is Romney’s plan for America one to uphold the Constitution and restore America’s greatness…. or is it to fulfill the Mormon agenda? Which can be read here and here.

Is Santorum’s plan to fulfill the Roman Catholic’s plan for America? Which can be read about here.

For all of Ron Paul’s issues; at least he is a protestant Christian; and I believe I could actually trust him in the White House. I might just for him in the primary here.

 

Watching my logs

I happened to look at my back end here at WordPress, at my stats and I noticed someone doing a search on my blog server’s IP address.

Is there something I can help you with? 😀

I’ll be happy to tell you who is hosting my blog, if you wondering or something. In fact, it is listed on my blog’s side bar. (left side.) I figured someone would have figured that out. Jeez, I guess my critics are not very bright. 🙄

Always know this; I am always watching and yes, I watch my logs, like a Hawk. I see any funny business; and the feds will be notified. Just remember, cyber-stalking is a federal crime, as is hacking a website — especially, if you happen to be employed by the federal Government.

Just reminding those that should be reminded of that; they know who they are.

Mitt Romney pimps out Donald Trump

How Ironic:

ABC News’ Michael Falcone reports:

With just over a week to go before Michigan voters head to the polls, Mitt Romney is enlisting the help of one of his highest-wattage surrogates: Donald Trump.

The real estate mogul is preparing to spread his pro-Romney, anti-Rick Santorum message in a series of radio interviews this week on local stations from Traverse City to Detroit.

Trump’s effort begins Monday morning with an interview on the “Art Lewis Show,” on WSGW news radio in the Flint-Saginaw media market.

On Tuesday he will call into the “Ron Jolly Show” on WTCM in Traverse City. On Wednesday it’s the “Paul Smith Show” on WJR in Detroit. And on Thursday, Trump will talk to Michael Patrick Shiels, host of a drive-time radio program on WJIM in Lansing

A Wishy-Washy independent stumping for an indecisive Moderate, how quaint. An old saying, “Money looks out for money.” This is perfect example of that. I do not think that it will much help or hurt. Either Romney will bag the primary here or he will not; I seriously doubt that “The Donald” will influence that at all.

I have touched on this, in this blog posting here; But to repeat, Michigan’s largest voting bloc is the Independent voter and I am not entirely convinced that these voters are overly impressed with either Mitt Romney or Rick Santorum; at least not among the working class folk, or as they’re called “The 60k or less a year crowd.” I know that, as someone who is a working stuff, (Present Employment situation notwithstanding) I am not overly impressed with either of them really. Although, I could be very well wrong. Something just tells me, that Santorum and Mitt are going to be barking up the wrong tree around here. Especially with Santorum’s dog-whistle comments about Obama.

It remains to be seen; but I have feeling both of these guys are going to be highly disappointed.

 

 

 

Fallout

Well, it has begun; fallout from my standing up for myself has begun to happen.  I have been delinked by some of said party’s friends.  Which is fine, I would rather be clear on where I stand and lose a few fair weather “friends” and know that I am standing on principle, than to have their friendship and know my name was being used to hurt others.

I shall carry on here, doing what I was before.  Traffic is not my concern really, it never was.  Quality and integrity before measure and monetary, I always say.

A follow up on linking and quoting this blog

I wanted to write a follow-up to a previous posting on this blog.  Mainly, because in the video that was included with that posting made me look and sound like I was some sort of a fire breathing manic.  Frankly, when I shot that video, I was highly annoyed and I do freely admit to having a very fierce temper.  I get it from my Mother and Father’s sides of the family.  My Grandmother’s brother, who was known to the family as “Buddy Hayes,” had a red-hot temper than used to scare the wits out of me.  My Father’s side of the family were known for their tempers too, although, their fuses were much longer.  I will say that in my advanced years, I am a bit less prone to, as they say, “blow a head casket” than I was when I was around 19 years old.  I still have a fuse; it is just much longer and is not as prone to explode as it used to be.  It comes with age and maturity.  However, you lay a finger on my coffee mug in the mornings; you might just be taking your life in your hands.  😉

Okay, now to what I really meant, when I said all that in the video.  The phrase, “my thoughts and rantings are not up for wholesale use.”  Now, to the average person, this would be a confusing statement; so, I shall explain.  What I meant by that is this here; I do not mind people linking to this blog and quoting my words and statements, in fact, I encourage it!  This is what makes the Blogosphere go around.  However, I do have a problem with people who use my words to push a particular “Meme” as they are called today.

For example, I made the following comment about a particular bloggers skirt length during an interview:

One thing I will give to the Jewish people and to the Muslim people; at least they are sincere about what they believe and actually act like it.

This quote was bandied around the blogosphere and made some internet news sites.  It is not that I minded my words being quoted; it was why my words were quoted by a particular blogger, which made me, as they call it, “ ready to blow a head gasket.”  I, and a few other bloggers were quoted by a particular blogger, because he had, as they call it, “an axe to grind” with another blog, a media company and another blogger himself.  The man was angered because he was passed over for a job as a full-time blogger.  To add insult to injury, the said media company that owns said blog, hired a woman — who, in the opinion of some, is a no-talent bimbo and was hired for her external appearance.  This, in my humble opinion, smacks of sexism.

What really had this writer ready to bite a nail in two; was the fact that my words, which were a simple, “off the cuff” observation that was never really intended to be used anywhere else, much less be paid much attention to — was used by another blogger as evidence of said female blogger’s morals and sexual looseness.  This was, in fact, never my intention in the first place. What really gets my goat, is that this said purveyor of said “internet meme” or rumor about said female blogger, is under some sort of personal delusion that he is somehow the Blogosphere’s version of Hunter S. Thompson.  As much as it going to sound like I am being an unkind person, I believe, said person needs to find another line of work.  Because Hunter S. Thompson he is not. Furthermore, I find it quite ironic that said blogger would even remotely consider someone like Mr. Thompson as a person to aspire to, considering that Thompson was an ardent leftist and hated everything that Conservatives stood for.

Again, let me reiterate in the strongest terms that I can muster as a writer; I do not mind being linked to, quoted and discussed.  In fact, I find all of the attention rather humorous, considering the fact that I am nothing more than high school dropout, with ADHD; whose biggest feat was managing not ending up in a state prison cell.  Again, you may quote me all you wish; but please, if you are quoting me, because you want to create a false impression of someone, because you have an axe to grind with something or someone —- please, refrain from using my words to further your cause.

I hope that this will the last time I ever have to address this rather idiotic subject.

The Sunday Night Music Express: In Memory: John Fairfax 1937-2012

youtube placeholder image

He crossed the Atlantic because it was there, and the Pacific because it was also there.

He made both crossings in a rowboat because it, too, was there, and because the lure of sea, spray and sinew, and the history-making chance to traverse two oceans without steam or sail, proved irresistible.

In 1969, after six months alone on the Atlantic battling storms, sharks and encroaching madness, John Fairfax, who died this month at 74, became the first lone oarsman in recorded history to traverse any ocean.

In 1972, he and his girlfriend, Sylvia Cook, sharing a boat, became the first people to row across the Pacific, a yearlong ordeal during which their craft was thought lost. (The couple survived the voyage, and so, for quite some time, did their romance.)

Both journeys were the subject of fevered coverage by the news media. They inspired two memoirs by Mr. Fairfax, “Britannia: Rowing Alone Across the Atlantic” and, with Ms. Cook, “Oars Across the Pacific,” both published in the early 1970s.

Mr. Fairfax died on Feb. 8 at his home in Henderson, Nev., near Las Vegas. The apparent cause was a heart attack, said his wife, Tiffany. A professional astrologer, she is his only immediate survivor. Ms. Cook, who became an upholsterer and spent the rest of her life quietly on dry land (though she remained a close friend of Mr. Fairfax), lives outside London.
