Election Season 2014

And it has brought us to this trainwreck called ObamaCare and we have bankrupted our kids and grandkids!

We are now headed into the 2014 Election Season and common sense and conservatism are on the rise. Please stand-up and be counted!

Reading Collusion: How the Media Stole the 2012 Election is a great place to start!

Terrorism and Critcizing Islam

CRITICIZING ISLAM: INTERNATIONAL CRIME?

"Later this month, the United Nations General Assembly will vote on the nonbinding Defamation of Religions Resolution, which would give international sanction to the type of religious persecution commonplace in Muslim-majority countries. Superficially, the resolution contains feel-good human rights language routinely churned out by the U.N. The intent of this resolution, however, is to give sanction to repressive mechanisms that primarily Muslim countries use to stifle critiques of their state-sanctioned sects. This lends international legitimacy to criminal penalties against people who exercise their freedom of worship..." (SOURCE)

We all know there is a war waging against Islamic extremists, but what many won't acknowledge is the 'other war' against Islam itself. A religion that is tolerant of no other. A religion that seeks to dominate by immigration and procreation (there's a reason other, than masculine indulgence, that men are permitted 15 wives...) Little steps like Sharia law being considered in the U.S., this UN resolution and the ACLU and CAIR playing on claims of discrimination to make allowances.

A few years ago, I read a paper by an Imam in England that outlined the "plan" for the spread and subsequent domination of Islam to the West. The "domination by immigration" plan also relied on the fact that more and more Americans choose career over children...eventually ensuring more Muslims in the future. It seemed far-fetched when I read it, but now I believe it wasn't just the ranting of some bearded kook...but an actual plan that has indeed been set into action and coming to fruition...

Stu's 'Surgical' Takedown Of Anti-Glenn Leftist Media RE: Terrorism

On Monday, December 6th, 2010, Glenn Beck took on Radial Islam, calling out the 10% of Muslims who are terrorists (and this is a ridiculously low, ultra-conservative number, based upon the information Stu uses to flay Glenn's opponents).

The next day, on "The Stu Blog," Stu struck back at the media outlets who attempted to verbally crucify Glenn Beck for daring to so do.
Stu took them apart with clarity and enthusiasm, then it was featured on the Glenn Beck program, during the 3rd hour. You've got to see this video clip, especially if you didn't catch that hour of Glenn's show that day.

After watching this, only the most committed, dedicated, blindly pro-Islamist propagandists (and dishonest media figures, individuals, etc.) will deny that 10% of Muslims are terrorists (assuming we're using English-language, widely-accepted definitions, rather than radical leftist spin-doctoring).

Glenn Beck says that Stu's analysis is like a surgeon taking someone apart. He filets those who are whining about Glenn's accurate characterization.
Enjoy (the blog article by Stu follows the excellent video clip from Insider Extreme):

Dear Media: Glenn was right. You were wrong! Apologize!

Monday, December 6th, 2010 7:21 pm

Let’s lay this out as quickly as possible. Glenn says this on the radio:
BECK: What is the number of Islamic terrorists? One percent? I think it’s closer to 10 percent, but the rest of the PC world will tell you ‘oh no, it’s minuscule.’ Okay, well, let’s take you at your one percent. Look at the havoc of one percent of Muslims causing on the rest of the world!

The typical idiotic left wing blogs go nuts. Then some not-so-typically-idiotic sources go nuts too. Eventually they figure out that this isn’t even the first time Glenn has said this!!! PANIC!!

To show how ridiculously pathetic the hype on this manufactured nonsense is—let’s start with definitions. What is a terrorist? From dictionary.com, definition number one:
a person, usually a member of a group, who uses or advocates terrorism.

Okay, now what is terrorism? Would you say that “attacks on civilians in the US” is an acceptable definition? Seems reasonable in this context, doesn’t it?

Okay, now what is terrorism? Would you say that “attacks on civilians in the US” is an acceptable definition? Seems reasonable in this context, doesn’t it?

Okey dokey—here are the facts. All of this is according to a scientific poll of people in Muslim nations done by the respected group World Public Opinion.

The lowest amount of support in the polled nations is in Azerbaijan where ONLY 4% of people approve of violence against civilians on our territory, with another 10% having “mixed feelings” about it. That number rises to 9% approval in Pakistan, with another 15% having “mixed feelings”. Do you want me to mention the Palestinian territories? Do you? 24% approval, 15% mixed feelings.

To put it another way—someone in the Palestinian territories who is open to violence on civilians in the United States is about as easy to find as an American citizen who approves of the job performance of President Obama.

But these numbers, ranging from 10% to 39%, are just the beginning.

  • Specific support for Al Qaeda’s attacks on civilians range from “only” 9% in Morocco to 21% in Egypt.

  • Support for attacking civilians who just happen to work in Islamic countries range from 6%-30%.

  • Specific support for Osama Bin Laden? That ranges from 4% in Azerbaijan to 56% in the Palestinian territories. Include those who have mixed feelings towards the largest terrorist in American history—and you get a range of 10%-78%.

  • Let’s remove the Al Qaeda brand name, and look for support for groups in general that attack Americans.  Support ranges from 25%-30%.

  • If you think killing troops that just happened to be stationed in the Gulf is terrorism—then it gets much, much worse. Support for violence ranges from 13% in Azerbaijan to a ridiculous 78% in Egypt and 87% in the Palestinian territories. That doesn’t include those who have mixed feelings about killing troops.

Alright, now that we have the facts…let me articulate the left's last ditch argument:

“But those are only people who advocate terrorism! Not people who are terrorists!!”

First, allow me to point out that your argument has now boiled down to:  “Glenn Beck lied! He said that 10% of Muslims want to kill innocent civilians when the truth is that 10% of Muslims SUPPORT killing innocent civilians!”

Secondly, even that point is wrong. Read the definition of terrorist again:  a person, usually a member of a group, who uses or advocates terrorism.
“But, that’s not what Glenn meant! You’re only saying that to cover after the fact!”

Am I? Here is the 10% statistic as laid out in 2003, in Glenn’s first New York Times bestselling book The Real America.” (Emphasis mine.)

–Ninety percent of Islam is peaceful.

–Ten percent of Islam wants us dead.

–That ten percent of the faith is composed of extreme radicals who have taken Islam through a time tunnel and twisted it into something that is ugly and barbaric.

What is truly amazing is how completely shocking this is to most of the media. This is very basic information about the war on terror. Anyone who has ever covered a terrorism story should be intimately acquainted with these polls. To be shocked by a statement like Glenn’s, shows either a willful disregard for the information*, or a complete lack of perspective about what we’re fighting. I’m actually stunned. (*The usual suspects like the Center for American Progress are very familiar with this information and are willfully ignoring it. They act as if they’re horrified, even while using this organization and it’s polling as a source dozens of times.)

The sad truth is that there are a lot of Muslims around the world who really don’t like us. That’s not a right wing tactic to get people riled up, it’s the truth. It’s a small percentage of a large group. Thankfully, the numbers are much, much better among American Muslims. That’s encouraging. And eventually, I believe the truth will win out among Muslims worldwide, and they will realize that we have absolutely no interest in destroying their religion.

But, beyond all of that—say this with me. Glenn was right. You were wrong. Now, go to Twitter and apologize.

US sues school over denial of Muslim pilgrimage

By PETE YOST, Associated Press Mon Dec 13, 7:53 pm ET

WASHINGTON – The federal government sued a suburban Chicago school district Monday for denying a Muslim middle school teacher unpaid leave to make a pilgrimage to Mecca that is a central part of her religion.

In a civil rights case, the department said the school district in Berkeley, Ill., denied the request of Safoorah Khan on grounds that her requested leave was unrelated to her professional duties and was not set forth in the contract between the school district and the teachers union. In doing so the school district violated the Civil Rights Act of 1964 by failing to reasonably accommodate her religious practices, the government said.

Khan wanted to perform the Hajj, the pilgrimage to Mecca in Saudi Arabia which every adult Muslim is supposed to make at least once in a lifetime if they are physically and financially able to. Millions go each year.

Khan started as a middle school teacher for Berkeley School District 87 — about 15 miles west of Chicago — in 2007. In 2008, she asked for almost three weeks of unpaid leave to perform the Hajj. After the district twice denied her request, Khan wrote the board that "based on her religious beliefs, she could not justify delaying performing hajj," and resigned shortly thereafter, according to the lawsuit filed in federal court in Chicago.

Berkeley School District compelled Khan to choose between her job and her religious beliefs, the lawsuit said.

The government asked the court to order the school district to adopt policies that reasonably accommodate its employees' religious practices and beliefs, and to reinstate Khan with back pay and also pay her compensatory damages.

In November 2008, Khan filed a complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, which found reasonable cause that discrimination had occurred and forwarded the matter to the Justice Department. The case is the first brought by department in a project to ensure vigorous enforcement of the 1964 act against state and local governments by improving cooperation between the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the department's civil rights division.
