Dinesh D’Souza must resign from King’s College and stop this madness
What an absolute freaking BONEHEAD! 
Rule number one, when confronting enemies, Spiritual or Political; be absolutely sure that you have your OWN spiritual house in order!
I know that this blogger thinks I am crazy and I am not too fond of her either; but when she is right, she is right. This blogger called this guy a two-bit fake a long while back. So, kudos to her for calling this one out, before anyone else did. Now, if Debbie was not such an a$$hole, and self-centered; she would be a decent person. I know, I helped her out once, and kept her blog from getting hacked and when she wrote a bunch of stuff about Poland, I defended her right to freedom of speech, on this blog. You think she would return the favor on her blog? No. She thanked me, on twitter; and this was after I griped about it. I learned my lesson with her; I will never ever defend her or really support her ever again — in fact, she even angered me so bad, that I removed my Israeli flag from my blog for a LONG TIME. I did end up putting it back, after praying and thinking about it quite a bit. But, I still cannot stand Jews, who do stuff like this feckless woman is known to do; especially towards people like me. Truth is, she HATES Christians and anyone else, who is not a Orthodox Jew.
Just the same, she was right, and a bunch of other people, including many of the right; were wrong — and unlike her little self-centered little fake blonde self, I will give her credit and link to where she brought this fact up. I’m doing what Jesus told me to do; and “Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you.” Hope she reads this and tries to sue me; she would not get jack, I am poor and unemployed for 8 years. I bet that would look really nice in the media; “Jewish blogger sues white Christian Blogger who is unemployed.” 
Now on to the important story here, this comes via World Magazine, which is a Christian Magazine:
After a meteoric rise in the evangelical world, The King’s College president Dinesh D’Souza now faces his board’s likely questions about his relationship to a woman not his wife
About 2,000 people gathered on Sept. 28 at First Baptist North in Spartanburg, S.C., to hear high-profile Christians speak on defending the faith and applying a Christian worldview to their lives. Among the speakers: Eric Metaxas, Josh McDowell, and—keynote speaker for the evening—best-selling author, filmmaker, and Christian college president Dinesh D’Souza.
D’Souza’s speech earned him a standing ovation and a long line at the book-signing table immediately afterward. Although D’Souza has been married for 20 years to his wife, Dixie, in South Carolina he was with a young woman, Denise Odie Joseph II, and introduced her to at least three people as his fiancée.
Finally, near 11 p.m., event organizer Tony Beam escorted D’Souza and Joseph to the nearby Comfort Suites. Beam noted that they checked in together and were apparently sharing a room for the night in the sold-out hotel. The next morning, around 6 a.m., Beam arrived back at the hotel and called up to D’Souza’s room. “We’ll be down in 10 minutes,” D’Souza told Beam. D’Souza and Joseph came down together, and Beam took them to the airport.
The next day another conference organizer, Alex McFarland, distressed by D’Souza’s behavior, confronted him in a telephone conversation. D’Souza admitted he shared a room with his fiancée but said “nothing happened.” When I called D’Souza, he confirmed that he was indeed engaged to Joseph, but did not explain how he could be engaged to one woman while still married to another. When asked when he had filed for divorce from his wife, Dixie, D’Souza answered, “Recently.”
According to San Diego County (Calif.) Superior Court records, D’Souza filed for divorce only on Oct. 4, the day I spoke with him. Under California law, that starts the clock on a six-month waiting period for divorce. D’Souza on Oct. 4 told me his marriage was “over,” said he “is sure Denise is the one for me,” and said he had “done nothing wrong.”
That second picture is of the woman in question; Denise Odie Joseph II and as it says, that is not his wife Dixie. Now, as for the Movie; I will admit it, I never was really a fan of the Movie at all. I never promoted it, that I can remember anyhow. The movie honestly sounded like something straight off of WorldNetDaily or that sort of a website. I have never been a big fan of conspiracy theories about the President. I have enough “ammo” (so to speak…) with Obama’s record, I just do not think that all of this conspiracy crap is really needed. Not to mention, it is not totally lost on me; the racist undertones of the movie as well. Which is why I never gave it much thought at all.
What is interesting, is that this story is not originating out of Liberal circles, but they sure are talking about it! But, rather, it is coming out of Christian circles — which I find to be very encouraging. Because I feel and have always felt; if we cannot police our own circles. we should not go after the left for being evil. Here is hoping that Mr. D’Souza does the honorable thing and resigns as the President of King’s College and apologizes to those who really held him in high regard.
Ann Coulter blasts a stupid Obama Video featuring women
Via The Blaze:
First the Ad in question:
..and here’s Ann Coulter letting her feelings be known about this idiot ad:
The Story:
A new pro-Obama campaign ad warning women about the alleged dangers that a Mitt Romney presidency would bring has caught the ire of none other than conservative commentator Ann Coulter. The MoveOn.org spot, which features female celebrities, claims that a Romney victory would render abortion illegal, cause rape to be redefined and end cancer screenings aimed at helping women. Naturally, Coulter lambasted the “air-headed actresses” in the ad, dismissing their scare tactics and subsequently bashing the Democratic Party. “Just the idea of actresses putting together a political ad like this, it’s like listening to trust fund babies,” Coulter said on Fox News’ “Hannity” on Monday. “The reason you have the ability to put this ad together is because of nothing you have done yourself. Completely unearned, God gave you the gift of genetic beauty and nothing between your ears.” Coulter wasn’t done there. She went on to say that the arguments espoused by Scarlett Johansson, Eva Longoria and Kerry Washington are weak, especially considering some prominent Democrats’ pasts. As a result of these indiscretions, she said that the Hollywood entertainers don’t have a decent argument that would sway independent voters. “The general idea of air-headed actresses trying to persuade independent voters that Republicans are the ones who are going to be soft on rape,” Coulter said, continuing, “The party that defends John Edwards, Bill Clinton, Dominic Strauss-Kahn and meanwhile, you have these honorable and decent men in the case of Paul Ryan and Mitt Romney.”
Good shot Ann. 
This is what desperation looks like…. 😀
Ross Perot endorses the Romney/Ryan ticket for President
If anyone would know the score, it would be H. Ross Perot. Because of this, Perot endorsed The Romney/Ryan ticket for President.
The quote comes from the Des Moines Register:
The American economy is stagnant. Economic growth is insufficient to create enough jobs for a country whose population is growing. The result is unemployment stuck over 8 percent for every single month of Barack Obama’s presidency. We have 23 million Americans who are looking for work and either can’t find a full-time job, can’t find a job at all, or who have given up looking. That is wrong. It’s not the way America ought to be.
At the same time, and not unrelated, is the extraordinary explosion of federal deficits and federal debt. In the last four years during Obama’s presidency, he’s added around $5 trillion to our national debt, more than any previous president. This was accomplished by successive federal budgets that each ran deficits exceeding $1 trillion a year. It is this massive deficit spending that threatens to undermine our future standard of living. To pay for our government’s massive debts, Washington’s profligacy, our children and grandchildren will be paying interest and principal on the nation’s debt for untold years into the future. That is wrong. It’s not the way America ought to be.
Even as we have engaged in runaway domestic spending, the country has been put on the path to massive cuts in the defense budget. President Obama’s own Secretary of Defense has called the proposed cuts “devastating” to our nation’s security. History teaches that the price of military weakness always exceeds the price of preparedness. And yet at a moment when turbulence is sweeping critical regions of the world, we are increasingly unprepared. That is wrong. It’s not the way America ought to be. …
For the past four years, we have squandered one opportunity after the next to turn things around. The longer we delay acting, the steeper the price we will have to pay.
Perot is very much correct in his assessment of the Country. Funny thing is, H.Ross Perot was saying some of these very things, about as long as Ron Paul. Like Ron Paul, he never got the respect of any party and was maligned by many, as some old crazy coot. Which, in this writers opinion, says much about our media and our Country. Kudos to Perot for putting political grudges behind him and endorsing a real leader.

Videos: Why do Conservatives do stupid stuff like this?
Good Lord…. 
I will never understand, in a million years, why Conservatives feel the need to do insanely stupid stuff like this. Never!
Via Mediaite:
He said spears, “spear chucker” is a underhanded racist term, about black people.
Update: After I hit publish, I sat here and thought about it for a second and decided to come back and add this update. I do not believe for one lousy second that Mark Sanford would have intentionally said a racist statement towards Obama at all. I think that, if anything, Tommy Christopher is trying to race-bait here a little. I believe, if anything, Mark Sanford simply just used a phrase like spears, because it was the first thing that came to his mind. Spears, Arrows, it is all the same. Again, I believe Tommy is baiting here, and I believe he is getting paid my Mediaite to do so. It is a pity, because I used to kind of like the guy a bit. Too bad, he is posting crap like that to make money. It is yellow and cheap and he should be ashamed. Maybe next time, when he has a heart attack, we on the right, won’t be so nice. Just saying.
Now this one here, which comes via JSOnline, yes, this is racism, plain and simple and this little jerk, ought to be banned from the party….FOR LIFE!:
Guys, listen, please? 
This is not helping Mitt Romney at all. In fact, it is hurting our cause, badly. 
We do not need to do this sort of crap, at all. Obama’s record is plenty.
I just do not understand it, at all. 
Also too, before anyone says, “What about you?” To that, I simply say this, What about about me? I am not a Republican. I am voting Mitt Romney, but I am just a lowly, low traffic blogger. These people are in the party and are supposed to be representing their cause. Needless to say, there is a massive fail going on here!
Unreal. 
If Mitt Romney loses this election, it will not be because he did not have any good ideas; it will because people in his own damned Party screwed him out of winning the White House.
Update — 7/25/2013: For some reason, this blog entry is popping up in my traffic window. For the record, Mark Sanford simply said that Obama was throwing spears of fear. He did not use a well-known racist term for blacks, which is, for what it is truly worth, “Spear-Chucker.” Anyone that thinks that he did is: 1. an idiot 2. a race-baiter.
Is Obama going to toss Hillary under the bus?
I personally do not buy it. But that is what they are saying.
Powerline Blog reports the following:
Former President Clinton has been working overtime to drag Barack Obama across the finish line in this year’s election. Clinton has been hands-down President Obama’s most effective advocate. His personal credibility may not be substantial, but unlike Obama, Clinton produced a non-disastrous presidency. Thus, his overall credibility vastly exceeds that of the current president.
So how is Obama awarding Clinton for his heavy lifting? By throwing Clinton’s wife under the Benghazi bus, it appears. On Friday, White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters that responsibility for the consulate in Libya fell on the State Department, not the White House. This followed Joe Biden’s claim during the Thursday debate that “we” (apparently meaning Biden and Obama) knew nothing about the Libya mission’s request to the State Department for extra security.
To support this claim, Powerline blog links to Tucker Carlson’s Daily Caller, which itself has a credibility problem; and a claim by author Ed Cline, who has a problem telling the truth in his writings. Anyhow, Ed Cline writes the following:
“Not only would it be hard to predict how it would play out as far as Hillary is concerned in the future, but it would certainly damage Obama’s chances for re-election if she resigned,” he said.
Klein said relations between the Clintons and President Obama have reached a new low, most recently with Obama ignoring Bill Clinton’s offer to help him and Vice President Joe Biden prepare for the debates with the Republican ticket.
“He had very clear ideas on how they should do that,” Klein told TheDC. “He never once got a response. And it absolutely sent him into orbit. He was furious that he would be treated this way, especially after what he did, in his view, at the Democratic convention in giving that nomination speech for Obama.”
Added Klein: “His fury turned to deep concern when the Benghazi business unfolded because he was deeply troubled by the appearance that the White House was going to throw Hillary under the bus, which in fact it appears it is doing.”
Klein said Bill Clinton’s informal legal team is made up of people he’s used in the past in legal situations. He asked them by phone to tell him how Hillary Clinton should handle this situation and what to do if she is subpoenaed to testify to the House Oversight Committee and provide them with memos regarding Benghazi.
The author said the situation is obviously complicated by Obama’s re-election, but also the possibility that Hillary would run in 2016.
“If she is left with this stain on her reputation, it could seriously damage her chances for election,” Klein told TheDC. “And this is what is really bothering Bill more than anything.”
The Agonist is not buying it and neither am I. Above anything at all, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are faithful Democrats to the very end. I do not believe for one lousy moment that Hillary Clinton or Bill or even Obama would risk ripping the Democratic Party to shreds over something like this. I might not be a professional when it comes to politics; but I am not an idiot. I know the Democratic Party well and with them, party always comes first. Nice try guys, but it is not going to happen. If anything at all, there will be some profuse apologizing and it will end with that.
So, nice; but, no. Sorry, but no.

More Fibs by Biden During the Debate
This looks like a pretty regular thing here. First there was the one about the Iraq War and now this one, as pointed out by The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB):
WASHINGTON—The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) issued the following statement, October 12. Full text follows:
Last night, the following statement was made during the Vice Presidential debate regarding the decision of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to force virtually all employers to include sterilization and contraception, including drugs that may cause abortion, in the health insurance coverage they provide their employees:
"With regard to the assault on the Catholic Church, let me make it absolutely clear. No religious institution—Catholic or otherwise, including Catholic social services, Georgetown hospital, Mercy hospital, any hospital—none has to either refer contraception, none has to pay for contraception, none has to be a vehicle to get contraception in any insurance policy they provide. That is a fact. That is a fact."
This is not a fact. The HHS mandate contains a narrow, four-part exemption for certain "religious employers." That exemption was made final in February and does not extend to "Catholic social services, Georgetown hospital, Mercy hospital, any hospital," or any other religious charity that offers its services to all, regardless of the faith of those served.
HHS has proposed an additional "accommodation" for religious organizations like these, which HHS itself describes as "non-exempt." That proposal does not even potentially relieve these organizations from the obligation "to pay for contraception" and "to be a vehicle to get contraception." They will have to serve as a vehicle, because they will still be forced to provide their employees with health coverage, and that coverage will still have to include sterilization, contraception, and abortifacients. They will have to pay for these things, because the premiums that the organizations (and their employees) are required to pay will still be applied, along with other funds, to cover the cost of these drugs and surgeries.
Oopsie! Looks like Biden was wrong again. But as I wrote in that other Biden post; that is what the Democrats are all about today. This sort of half truths and such. Should not be considered anything out of the ordinary with them.
But I still say it was wrong to call him a “Jackhole.” Fibber maybe, but JackHole?
That’s just rude.

My verdict on the Vice-Presidential Debate
Here is my official opinion or verdict on the Vice-Presidential debates. Unlike the last debates, I actually watched this debate, in its entirety. I also have an opinion on them and it might actually shock you about how I really think about them. If you were are following me on twitter, you already know; so, this is for the regular blog readers who actually come here.
Unlike the last debate, which from what I have read and seen in the clips, Obama stumbled, while Romney get the upper hand. This debate was different, and it seemed that the moderator had better control of the debate. Biden and Ryan both were fully prepared and both represented their positions and their own set of facts very well.
At first, Biden kept snickering and making guffaws at Ryan’s statements, which I felt made him look horrible before the American people. Somewhere in the debate, Biden figured out that this was not helping him at all, so he stopped doing it. I felt that doing this, helped him out a good deal.
Biden did have a few stumbles and memory lapses which is understandable seeing the man is 69 years old and debating a young man who is only two years older than me! (Ryan is 42.) But for the most part, Biden was on his game. To be quite honest, Biden did better than I and many other bloggers thought he would. There was on funny moment, when Biden wanted to swear and said “stuff” instead of the word, for which farmers normally call fertilizer. Biden also used the word “malarkey” quite a bit too, which really does date Biden.
Ryan was wonky on policy and really did stand out, he never got angry at all. Biden was never angry, but did defend his policy positions very well and sometimes with a bit of force.
Alright, How did you feel about the Democratic Positions?
Well, obviously as someone who does lean a bit to the right, I would disagree with most of the Democrat’s positions. I did feel that it was good that the moderator started out with Syria and I was very much not impressed with Biden’s excuses for the failure over there with our embassy. Biden seemed to be wanting to place blame on the State Department and not on the White House where it belonged. Furthermore, I found the scaremongering by Biden on Social Security and Medicare to be quite predictable and typical for the left. I was not really surprised or shocked about anything that the Vice-President said at all.
So, my bottom line on the VP Debate: It was a draw; neither side scored a knockout blow. Both sides fought and counter punched very well. Points to Biden for defense, and points to Ryan for substance and articulation. Now, as for the impact; I really do not see this debate really making much difference in the polls at all. There really was no really impact event in the debate at all to case a big jump in the polls. Snap polls aside, I really do not predict any sort of long-term poll change at all.
I believe that if Romney or Obama comes out in the next debate swinging and does engage Romney that things could look for him. However, if he does what he did last time, the Democrats had better start planning for 2016. Personally, I predict that Obama is going to be tougher in this next debate. I think he was preoccupied with something else or possibly worried about coming off sounding like an angry black man. Either way, it will be interesting to watch.
There are my thoughts, how did you feel about these debates?
Update: Here is the round up of blogger reactions to the debate.
