Muslims storm American embassies in Cairo and Benghazi; Obama and the State Department do nothing.

Posted on by

From Reuters:

(Reuters) – Egyptian protesters scaled the walls of the U.S. embassy on Tuesday, tore down the American flag and burned it during a protest over what they said was a film being produced in the United States that insulted Prophet Mohammad.

Scaling the walls and burning our American flag, replacing it with a black al Qaeda-type flag, as below:

From the UK Telegraph:

“At least four of them climbed over the embassy walls and tore down the American flag,” a witness said, adding that the demonstrators were angered by a film produced by expatriate members of Egypt’s Christian minority resident in the United States.

The demonstrators raised black flags inscribed with the Muslim profession of belief: “There is no God but God and Mohammed is the prophet of God.”

So what is the official reaction of the US Embassy — the US State Department — the United States of America?

Yes, of course: blame the so-called “film-makers” and not the Muslims who assaulted and occupied what is, by accord, considered to be sovereign US soil.  Here is the statement of US bureaucrats:

The U.S. embassy had put out a statement earlier on Tuesday condemning “misguided individuals” who hurt the religious feelings of Muslims or followers of other religions.

“We firmly reject the actions by those who abuse the universal right of free speech to hurt the religious beliefs of others,” the U.S. embassy said in its statement.

The United States has now publicly apologized to Islam for the assault.

For those who think that — as the terrible Conservative that I am — I’m creating this reaction out of completely fabricated cloth, I say: here is the official US Embassy Cairo link, containing the full statement.

Officially, per the embassy, free speech is now “abuse.”  The reaction of Islam?  Here:

“If your freedom of speech has no limits, may you accept our freedom of action.”

There you have it.  Speech is the same, for Muslims, as violent action.

Additionally: I’m sure everyone has forgotten about the refusal of the Los Angeles Times in to release the 2003 tape it possesses of Mr Obama praising a Chicago professor who was a rabid advocate for the Palestine Liberation Organization while it was a designated terrorist group in the 1970s and ’80s.  Remember that?  I certainly do.

Here is the 2008 LATimes story.

What is Mr Obama’s “official” response today regarding the assault of our/his Cairo embassy and the storming/shooting at the US consulate in Benghazi, Libya, where “One American staff member has died and a number have been injured in the clashes,” Abdel-Monem Al-Hurr, spokesman for Libya’s Supreme Security Committee, told Reuters news agency. — ?

This.

But wait: it only gets better:

In the meantime, our “foreign policy president” (his campaign words), Mr Obama, refused to meet with Benyamin Netanyahu later this month, who will be in the US for two days only.  From Haaretz.com:

White House declines Netanyahu request to meet with Obama

The White House’s response marks a new low in relations between Netanyahu and Obama, underscored by the fact that this is the first time Netanyahu will visit the U.S. as prime minister without meeting Obama; PM to meet with Clinton

The White House declined Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s request on Tuesday to meet U.S. President Barack Obama during a UN conference in New York at the end of the month.

From CBSDC:

WASHINGTON (CBSDC/AP) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is making it clear that Israel will not wait to take out Iranian nuclear facilities.

In heated comments toward the United States, the Israeli prime minister said that it’s becoming clear that diplomacy will not work with Iran.

“The world tells Israel, `Wait. There’s still time,’” Netanyahu said Tuesday, according to The Associated Press. “And I say: `Wait for what? Wait until when?’ Those in the international community who refuse to put red lines before Iran don’t have a moral right to place a red light before Israel.”

“That which gets rewarded gets repeated.”  A political axiom.  And our president and his administration through any number of OFFICIAL venues are REWARDING violence against the United States and the discarding and curb-kicking of Israeli concerns.

How can any clear-thinking individual conclude anything other than: Mr Obama supports Islam and snubs Israel?

With that in mind, what’s a good Mullah to think?

Chicago teachers strike: want a 16% wage increase

Posted on by

[CTU President Karen Lewis makes a poor argument that Chicago teachers are starving.]

I create this post with my caveat:

I am a member of an association that has its roots in unions.  Mine has been a “closed shop” for a number of years, which means that I have no voice in where my dues go, nor do I have an ability to stop my dues.  With one exception: I can shuttle my dues over to our law enforcement chaplaincy, which I have done.  When I was in Homicide, I saw the Good Works that our LE chaplains did on a daily basis.

That said, I first made $5.79 an hour whilst a Fornicalia deputy sheriff in a coastal county in 1978.  And that coastal county had (and still has) one of the highest costs in the state for housing.  That wage also included my premium hourly 25-cent “shift differential” for working graveyards.

I never entered law enforcement to cut the proverbial fat hog.  I lived month-to-month for, literally, two decades at work.  Whatever wage or benefit issues were acquired due to negotiations were such that both sides of the table agreed to it.

In the very best of years, I perhaps acquired a 3% to 5% increase — in the 90s.

In Chicago, however, the city teachers have clearly gone “off the rails.”

Apparently the teachers, identical to Mr Obama, are “tone deaf” in re the tenor of the times.

Chicago: the city where Rahm Emanuel is Mayor.  The city that spawned Barack Hussein Obama as a community organizer.  The city that embraces William Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn, Reverend Jeremiah Wright, Tony Rezko, Reverend Michael Pfleger.

The city that has a higher murder rate than New York.  The city that has Draconian gun laws.

Chicago: the city where its teachers want a 16% increase in wages.  In 2012!  A raise that the teachers turned down.  City of Chicago teachers already have the highest average salary in the entire nation.  Even more than Fornicalia.  That in itself is amazing.

Chicago teachers average $76,000 per year prior to the addition of benefits.

For — dare I portray the obvious here — three months OFF per year.

Frankly, I don’t think even the CEO of Exxon-Mobil acquired a 16% raise this year.

P.S.
9/11 has been over-done.  I’ll let others make that post today.

George Stephanopoulos’s vigorous refutation of bias in the media:

Posted on by

MRCTV’s Joe Schoffstall (MRC = Media Research Center) asks “Good Morning America” host George Stephanopoulos a question.

MRC: “Do you think there’s liberal bias in the media?”

S: “I don’t.  Who are you?”

MRC: “We’re with the Media Research Center.  You don’t believe there’s any media liberal bias?”

S: (slaps on shoulder) “Take care, man.”

And there you have it!

A vigorous and emphatic refutation, from a professional, that bias does not exist in the media.

Don’t you feel assuaged?  I know I do.   .   .

More truth about Barack Hussein Obama: “Dreams From My Real Father”

Posted on by

First, please attend Dinesh D’souza’s new film, 2016.

Then watch this video in re Dreams From My Real Father — a different DVD already produced.

THE JOURNALIST’S CREED:

I believe in the profession of Journalism.
I believe that the public journal is a public trust; that all connected with it are, to the full measure of responsibility, trustees for the public; that all acceptance of lesser service than the public service is a betrayal of this trust.
I believe that clear thinking, clear statement, accuracy and fairness are fundamental to good journalism.
I believe that a journalist should write only what he holds in his heart to be true.
I believe that suppression of the news, for any consideration other than the welfare of society, is indefensible.
I believe that no one should write as a journalist what he would not say as a gentleman; that bribery by one’s own pocket book is as much to be avoided as bribery by the pocketbook of another; that individual responsibility may not be escaped by pleading another’s instructions or another’s dividends.
I believe that advertising, news and editorial columns should alike serve the best interests of readers; that a single standard of helpful truth and cleanness should prevail for all; that supreme test of good journalism is the measure of its public service.
I believe that the journalism which succeeds the best-and best deserves success-fears God and honors man; is stoutly independent; unmoved by pride of opinion or greed of power; constructive, tolerant but never careless, self-controlled, patient, always respectful of its readers but always unafraid, is quickly indignant at injustice; is unswayed by the appeal of the privilege or the clamor of the mob; seeks to give every man a chance, and as far as law, an honest wage and recognition of human brotherhood can make it so, an equal chance; is profoundly patriotic while sincerely promoting international good will and cementing world-comradeship, is a journalism of humanity, of and for today’s world.

J’ACCUSE, American “Journalistas.”  You DEM/MSM‘ers.  You members of the Defeatist Elitist Media / MainStream Media.  You Ignorers of Reality.

I ask YOU, my dearest readers, to digest the above creed and then posit: are there really any true journalists remaining in the continental United States?

This just in: FEDS DROP ALL CHARGES AGAINST SHERIFF JOE ARPAIO of MARICOPA COUNTY, ARIZONA!

Posted on by

And let there be NO mistake.

This WILL NOT be covered by the DEM/MSM!

From NBCNews.com:

By NBC News staff and wire services

The federal government has closed a criminal probe of alleged financial misconduct by Arizona lawman Joe Arpaio, who styles himself as “America’s toughest sheriff,” and no charges will be filed, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said on Friday.

A separate federal investigation relating to allegations of civil rights abuses by Arpaio’s office is continuing.

The announcement on Friday marked the end of an investigation that began in November 2010 at the behest of the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors to examine alleged financial improprieties by the county sheriff and his deputies.

A federal criminal inquiry into several of those matters was concluded last summer with the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Arizona declining to initiate criminal charges.

Maricopa County authorities were informed on Friday that federal prosecutors had likewise declined to bring charges in connection with allegations that the sheriff’s office had misused county credit cards or misspent money from jail facilities excise taxes.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio has been portrayed in the AMERICAN media as a racist, a criminal, responsible for the hateful and recriminative application of onerous, fatal, oppressive, unlawful, sexist, suppression of the basic and fundamental rights of Americans nationally.  To include, of course, those persons who are NOT lawful American citizens but whose status is protected and/or ignored by the very administration tasked with enforcement: the US federal government.

To those of you who cared not for Sheriff Joe Arpaio and determined him to be racist and unlawful I say: under Mr Romney, I submit Sheriff Arpaio’s name for Secretary of Homeland Security.

All those in favor, say “aye.”
