Staffers push Muslim new hires for Obama

Just when I think I can get rid of this picture....


along comes this....

CHICAGO — In a bid to get more Muslim Americans working in the Obama administration, a book with resumes of 45 of the nation's most qualified — Ivy League grads, Fortune 500 executives and public servants, all carefully vetted — has been submitted to the White House.

The effort, driven by community leaders and others, including U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison, D-Minn., was bumped up two weeks because White House officials heard about the venture, said J. Saleh Williams, program coordinator for the Congressional Muslim Staffers Association, who sifted through more than 300 names.

"It was mostly under the radar," Williams said. "We thought it would put (the president) in a precarious position. We didn't know how closely he wanted to appear to be working with the Muslim American community."

Now, here the Lefties had me all convinced that it was against the law to hire Repubs if Bush did it.... yet now the Lefties think it okay to hire Muslims if Hussein does it..

I guess the qualification is religion.

Who knew? What's a little theocracy among Muslims???? But wait.... Hussein isn't..or is he???

White man's burden.

Brazil’s President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva on Thursday blamed the global economic crisis on “white people with blue eyes” and said it was wrong that black and indigenous people should pay for white people’s mistakes.

Speaking in Brasília at a joint press conference with Gordon Brown, the UK prime minister, Mr Lula da Silva told reporters: “This crisis was caused by the irrational behaviour of white people with blue eyes, who before the crisis appeared to know everything and now demonstrate that they know nothing.”

I think he has a point. Consider the following.

Why did we take extraordinary pains to reduce collateral damage in Iraq? We could have just bombed Baghdad into oblivion, sent in enough troops to take the oil fields, secured them, helped ourselves with whatever dictator we decided to install in the new state of OilAmericaArabia and lived happily ever after.

I doubt we would have lost 50 men and by pumping and selling oil at $30 a barrel we would have saved the world from the theocrats in the ME and their other helpers in OPEC by destroying THEIR economy and maybe, just maybe, letting a democratic government come into being.

Can you imagine a world with 90 cents gasoline??

No doubt about it. We enabled Hugo and his pals in South America and other places.

Obama! The campaign continues!

Well it does attract some negative vibes...
