Evidence that Obama is a Muslim

Evidence for the Proposition That Obama's a Muslim: His father was a Muslim; his mother, an atheist, married two Muslims; he attended a Muslim school in Indonesia from age 6 to 10; and, during the campaign, he proudly posted on his webpage his statement that America is "no longer" a Christian nation, a statement he has repeated as president, while announcing on French TV that America is "one of the largest Muslim countries in the world."

What's in a name?

I love iconic names for politicians. I think this one fits perfectly.

THE MADNESS CONTINUES – It is reported that President Obama has invited New York's Mayor Mike "the mosque" Bloomberg for a round of golf. Why not? They think alike. My hunch is that there may be a place in the Obama administration for Mayor Mike. Meanwhile, back in the city, New York's liberals continue their descent into madness:

Of possums and men

I killed a possum yesterday morning.

Went into the garage and he was over in a corner. He either got in the night before we shut the doors or in the morning after we opened them.

I didn’t start out to kill him. I first tried to sweep him out the door with a broom with the expectation he would sulk or make for the woods. Unfortunately he felt possessive and started grinning and hissing. So I tried scooping him up in a dip net but he would have none of that.

Now my experience with possums as a boy was that when fronted they would sulk up and “play possum.” I use to catch them and take them to town where they would bring between 25 and 35 cents depending. Their favorite dens were underneath beech and oak trees. Pick up a couple of beer bottles besides the road on the walk into town for the deposit and I’d have the makings of a living large Saturday. Double feature, cartoon, a serial, popcorn and a big orange and maybe a Mars bar… Life was good.

But I digress.

Possum had, I decided, acted strangely. Animals that act strangely may have rabies. (I have been assured that he hadn’t acted strangely at all and that we haven’t had a case of rabies around here in anyone’s memories. But they hadn’t been around to vouch for his behavior.)

Anyway, I called the local health department and was transferred to the Rabies Control Officer at 11:30AM. Left a voice mail explaining what I had and requested a call back.

Left another voice mail at about 4:00PM.

At around 9:00AM the next day he called. Said I should take the carcass to a vet of my choice, have the head removed at my expense, place head in a container suitable for carrying to a lab and dispose of the carcass.

Was I speechless? Well, yes. For about 2 seconds. After listening to my extreme displeasure he gave me his boss’s number.

I called, got his voice mail, left a message.

I then took the carcass to the vet we use for our dog and cat. She removed the head, packaged same and I returned home.

I buried the headless body (nothing like acreage) and discovered that I had been directed via message from the boss to return the head to the vet.

So I did.

I also called the Rabies Control Officer, gave him the vet’s address and asked for a call back when he had the head. It’s now 9:32PM and I haven’t heard a thing.

You know, I couldn’t make this shit up.

And some people can’t figure out why some of us suffer extreme displeasure just thinking about bureaucrats.

Of well, as Scarlet opined, tomorrow is another day. Both of these two shall discover that old men have lots of time and know how to work their way up the chain of command.

Fishing tips

A gold old boy was stopped by a game warden in North Georgia recently with two ice chests full of fish. He was leavin' a cove well-known for its fishing.

The game warden asked the man, 'Do you have a license to catch those fish?' 'Naw, sir', he replied. 'I ain't got none of them thar licenses. You must understand, these here are my pet fish.'

'Pet fish?'

'Yeah. Every night, I take these here fish down to the lake and let 'em swim 'round for awhile. Then, when I whistle, they jump right back into these here ice chests and I take 'em home.'

'That's a bunch of hooey! Fish can't do that.'

The good old boy looked at the warden for a moment and then said, 'It's the truth Mr. Government Man. I'll show ya. It really works.'

'O. K.', said the warden. 'I've got to see this!'

The good old boy poured the fish into the lake and stood and waited. After several minutes, the warden says, 'Well?'

'Well, what?' says the good old boy.

The warden says, 'When are you going to call them back?'

'Call who back?’

'The FISH,' replied the warden!

'What fish?’ replied the good old boy..

Moral of the story: We may not be as smart as some city slickers, but we ain't as dumb as some government employees.

You can say what you want about the South but you never hear of anyone retiring and moving north.

You know, I had Obama figured out before the election. But the one thing I had hopes of him doing was changing a few things.

Well, he has ignored the problems and what he has changed he has made worse.

The man is totally clueless. The Left, who should also be outraged over this doesn't care about things like this. They just want power to change our foreign policy... more Muslim friendly and more anti Jew and Christian....open our borders to get enough voters into keep themselves in power... and destroy our education system by rewriting history.

Some how I deleted the post I made especially for Jondee.

Sorry about that.

Jondee is a Leftie who hangs out over at TalkLeft. We have been opponents for years and he, like so many on the Left, loves the personal attack and insult.

Lately he has taken to commenting on TalkLeft on the contents of some of the posts here, demanding that I answer him.

I could, but debating what is on my personal blog on a very popular blog has the smell of using someone else to drive traffic here.

Ain't gonna do it.

Jondee. If you have a comment about anything published on this post and want an answer from me, then comment HERE.

And, assuming it meets the guidelines, I will publish it. I may even answer it.

Study challenges the hocky stick graph

The infamous hockey stick graph so beloved by man made global warming hoaxers.... those determined to frighten us into running into the arms of government controls designed to destroy the economy.... is under serious challenge.

Link

One of its most interesting points is:

We find that the proxies do not predict temperature significantly better than random series generated independently of temperature. Furthermore, various model specifications that perform similarly at predicting temperature produce extremely different historical backcasts. Finally, the proxies seem unable to forecast the high levels of and sharp run-up in temperature in the 1990s either in-sample or from contiguous holdout blocks, thus casting doubt on their ability to predict such phenomena if in fact they occurred several hundred years ago.

Simply put, that means that the data and methods used to develop the major "proof" of global warming are not significantly better than random data.

Think about that.

Wow. Make that Wow Wow.

Muslim on vacation?????

What a guy! Not just anybody would run off when the country is falling to pieces!

But Obama has!

President Barack Obama will be accompanied by his wife Michelle and daughters Malia, 12, and Sasha, nine, and are expected to stay at the historic Blue Heron Farm in Chilmark.

Bill Burton, the deputy White House press secretary, said that the US president was “going to spend a little time recharging his batteries” at the Massachusetts island ahead of the November midterm elections.

“There will be some hiking, some time at the beach, some time at the ice cream store - all the sort of things you do when you’re at Martha’s Vineyard. You enjoy the people and the good food.”

He is also expected to work on his swing at Mink Meadows golf club in Vineyard Haven and to work out every day, as he did when the First Family visited Martha’s Vineyard last year.

I grow weary hearing that the proposed GZ mosque is

about Constitutional rights... that it is about freedom of religion

Actually this is not about religion.

It is about war, peace, foreign relations and politics.

And that is why it is such a big deal.

The proposed mosque supposedly is being built to promote good will, peace, understanding and curing all the ills of mankind....

The problem is that the non-Muslim population think it is too early to be reminded that it was radical Muslims who hijacked those planes, cut throats and flew them into the WTC.

I cannot believe that the Muslims promoting the GZ mosque did not know this long before they went public.

But in any event they know it now.

That they won't heed what they are hearing tell us exactly this.

They don't give tinker's damn about the feelings of the non-Muslim American public's feelings and the real reason for the mosque is, and always was, to celebrate the slaughter of innocents by radical Muslims on 9/11 in a way that is visible to the whole world.

Plainer.

Don't piss on my shoes and tell me it's raining. I know the difference. That some of my Leftie friends do not is a problem we need to fix.

The double standards of the Professional Left and the Casual Lefties

Of all the slips of the tongue and unintentional admissions by this administration, Robert Gibbs’ “professional left” comment may well be the one they wish they could squeeze back into their collective windpipe the most:

“I hear these people saying (Obama) is like George Bush. Those people ought to be drug tested. … I mean, it’s crazy. … The professional left … will be satisfied when we have Canadian health care and we’ve eliminated the Pentagon. That’s not reality. … They wouldn’t be satisfied if Dennis Kucinich was president.”

Link

You gotta love it when Gibbs gets gored but the issue goes beyond the “professional left” demanding health care, defense shut downs, etc.

It extends all the way to politicians and bureaucrats and even to what I call the “casual Leftie” demanding AZ1070 be not allowed and de facto supporting Open Borders as our non-policy on immigration.

AZ1070 and Open Borders is very instructive. Now you would think that the “supporters” and “defenders” of the working man would be against anything that destroys the jobs, wages base and benefits that it has taken years for unions to win at the negotiation tables.

Yet they aren’t. They fully support illegal aliens flooding the US and taking jobs from Americans. And, at the same time, lowering the wages and benefits of those still working.

Think I’m wrong? Look what has happened to the meat cutters… look at all the construction trades… all of these are being paid less with fewer benefits.

The reason? Labor is a commodity. When you have an unlimited supply of people clamoring for a job, the price paid will be less.

So why do the “Professional Left” and the “Casual Left” not understand this.

Well, they do in an intellectual sense. But they don’t “feel” it because they have no fear of losing their place at the table.

An illegal alien won’t take a teacher’s or professor’s job. Neither will the illegal alien take a politician’s, bureaucrat’s or NGO employee’s job. Reporters and Talking Heads are exempt. Lawyers, doctors and nurses will slip right on by as will Police Chiefs and other “officials.”

What the Left wants is for the great unwashed to carry the burden.

I have a suggestion. Let’s go back and establish a base year for meat cutter and other trades pay and benefits. Now, let’s work this forward using inflation as a guide and establish the LOSS of wages and benefits.

Then, let’s take this formula and apply it to the teachers, professors, lawyers and all other Professional and Casual Lefties.

They wouldn’t mind a large, say 30%, pay cut would they??

Pelosi attacks Ground Zero Mosque opponents

You absolutely cannot make this stuff up.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, California Democrat, called for an investigation of those who are protesting the building of the Ground Zero Mosque on Tuesday. She told San Francisco's KCBS radio:

"There is no question there is a concerted effort to make this a political issue by some. And I join those who have called for looking into how is this opposition to the mosque being funded," she said. "How is this being ginned up that here we are talking about Treasure Island, something we've been working on for decades, something of great interest to our community as we go forward to an election about the future of our country and two of the first three questions are about a zoning issue in New York City." (h/t Kristinn)

Yes, Dear Leader. Millions of us oppose you and the proposed GZ mosque.

So what is your response, oh great House Leader and protector of our Constitution...

You want to investigate us.

Shame on you, Dear Leader. Shame. Shame. Shame.

And has the opponents calls for finding out who is paying for this national insult been heeded?

Calls to investigate the funding for those proposing the $100 million "Cordoba House" have fallen on deaf ears, though, as New York's Mayor Mike Bloomberg has described such an investigation as "un-American."

This is typical Leftie stuff. Attack America and ignore those who want to demean and insult us.

Why? Why does the Left rush to assist these people and attack those of us who oppose this national insult.

Because the Left hates America. The radical Muslim extremists hate America. The old saying:

"An enemy of my enemy is my friend" explains it all."

Ray Bradbury

has always been a favorite of mine. His fantasy and scifi works fascinated me as a boy and "Fahrenheit 451" is one of the greatest prophecy novels ever written. So when he says something it is worth listening to:

“We have too many cellphones. We've got too many Internets. We have got to get rid of those machines. We have too many machines now.”

Bradbury wrote darkly about bookburning in "Fahrenheit 451," but he sounds ready to use a Kindle for kindling. “I was approached three times during the last year by Internet companies wanting to put my books" on an electronic reading device, he said. "I said to Yahoo, 'Prick up your ears and go to hell.'

Global cooling strikes CA

It hasn't been the coolest summer on record, but it's been close, forecasters say.

The average temperature in July was 79 degrees, five degrees below normal, and the first eight days of this month also have been five to six degrees below normal, weather experts said.

That could put Southern California on track for a near-record-low summer, but it's still too early to say, according to weather experts. The Los Angeles area, in fact, has had below-normal temperatures every month since April

"The fruits and vegetables, the tomatoes and a lot of the citrus and things like raspberries are not ripening up because it's not getting hot long enough," she said, adding that some fruit could taste less sweet because less sun means less sugar content

And that’s the difference between global warming and global cooling. Warming increases food production. Cooling decreases food production.

Which one would a rational person worry about?

All through history periods of global cooling have been associated with war, famine and disease. Warmer weather brought expansion, a food surplus and advances in civilization.

Yet we are all in a dither over supposed global warming.

I think we should be storing food.

Mosque closed by authorities

The canary has been used for years as an early warning of poison gas in the mines of the world. Europe should be seen as ours regarding the threats posed by radical Muslims.

A Hamburg mosque once frequented by some of the Sept. 11 attackers was shut down Monday because German authorities believe the prayer house was again being used as a meeting point for Islamic radicals.
The Taiba mosque was closed and the cultural association that runs it was banned, Hamburg officials said in a statement.
"We have closed the mosque because it was a recruiting and meeting point for Islamic radicals who wanted to participate in so-called jihad or holy war," said Frank Reschreiter, a spokesman for Hamburg's state interior ministry.

Looks like the Germans are catching on.

Poker Player fixes man made global warming

Reporter: Is that you Poker Player?

Poker Player: And who else would be answering my phone?

Reporter: I wouldn’t know.

Poker Player: I know, but thanks for calling. I guess you got my message.

Reporter: Yeah.

Poker Player: So. What do you think?

Reporter: Well, I don’t understand.

Poker Player: About what?

Reporter: If I understand this you want me to help you fix the county fair best hog contest.

Poker Player: That’s about it..

Reporter: ……by threatening to expose the actions of the judges…

Poker Player: Yeah, I figure Mayor Jones won’t want everyone to know him and his secretary spend lunch every Thursday down at the Shady Pines motel…

Reporter: Everybody already knows that…

Poker Player: And that Councilman Smith went to the Gay Pride parade in Pelosi Town.

Reporter: Everybody already knows that…

Poker Player: Yeah, but it ain’t been in the paper..

Reporter: That would make me liable…

Poker Player: It ain’t libel if it’s true.

Reporter: Not libel. It’d make me liable to get fired.

Poker Player: Oh. But it’s for a good cause.

Reporter: Huh?

Poker Player: You betcha. The fight against man made global warming is important…

Reporter: So is my job.

Poker Player: And even Dr. Schneider said, “Each of us has to decide the right balance between being effective and being honest.”

Reporter: You been goofing around on the Internet again.

Poker Player: Well, sometimes the on line games get boring.

Reporter: When did you get interested in manmade global warming?

Poker Player: Well, it’s been on my mind ever since that government man caused all my chicks to die by making me use CFL’s…

Reporter: I see.

Poker Player: Yeah. That was terrible. So I started reading up…..

Reporter: I see.

Poker Player: And I’ve figured out what’s causing it.

Reporter: Many scientists say it’s man made carbon dioxide… some blame cycles in the sun’s radiance…

Poker Player: They’re all wrong.

Reporter: All? Wrong?

Poker Player: Yeah. It is black hogs.



Reporter: Huh?

Poker Player: Yeah. You see, I read that black objects absorb heat and then release that heat when things start to cool…

Reporter: Yeah.

Poker Player: And white objects reflect much of the heat… so black hogs hold the heat in that the white hogs were reflecting...

Reporter: So? Hogs?

Poker Player: Yeah. Now I know you ain’t been around here and don’t know anything about farming..

Reporter: True.

Poker Player: Well, for years and years, up until the early 80’s most folks cooked their food in lard.

Reporter: Lard?

Poker Player: Yeah, lard. You make it from hog fat.

Reporter: Huh? Yeah. After you kill hogs you trim the fat and cook it down and make lard.

Poker Player: And white’s had more fat than blacks…



Reporter: I don’t see..

Poker Player: I know you don’t. Now listen. About that time everybody got all excited about having too much fat in their food....

Reporter: Yeah…

Poker Player: So all the farmers started raising blacks…

Reporter: Huh?

Poker Player: They have less fat. So we wound up with thousands upon thousands of black hogs laying around just soaking up the sunshine and radiating it back when the sun went down…

Reporter: Good heavens……

Poker Player: Yeah. Now I’ve applied for a government grant…

Reporter:……to raise white hogs…

Poker Player: You catch on quick.

Reporter: I feel queasy.

Poker Player: Don’t hang up….

Reporter… and you want me to help you fix the Best Hog of Show so that your whites win…

Poker Player:… Yeah. After that I figure everybody will start raising whites and the world will be saved!

Reporter: Have you done any studies on any of this?

Poker Player: Yeah, but as soon as I did the trick on the data I destroyed the original….

Reporter: I hope you haven’t been sending any emails…
