Saudi Arabia promotes radical Muslims in the Balkans

Yeah, yeah, I know. Moderate Muslims can be trusted.... to be radicalized...

SAUDI ARABIA is pouring hundreds of millions of pounds into Islamist groups in the Balkans, some of which spread hatred of the West and recruit fighters for jihad in Afghanistan.

According to officials in Macedonia, Islamic fundamentalism threatens to destabilise the Balkans. Strict Wahhabi and Salafi factions funded by Saudi organisations are clashing with traditionally moderate local Muslim communities.

Fundamentalists have financed the construction of scores of mosques and community centres as well as handing some followers up to £225 a month. They are expected not only to grow beards but also to persuade their wives to wear the niqab, or face veil, a custom virtually unknown in the liberal Islamic tradition of the Balkans.

Government sources in traditionally secular Macedonia (official title the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia), said they were monitoring up to 50 Al-Qaeda volunteers recruited to fight in Afghanistan.

Your phone bill is gonna go up and your pay and benefits are gonna go down

March 26 (Bloomberg) -- AT&T Inc. will book $1 billion in first-quarter costs related to the health-care law signed this week by President Barack Obama, the most of any U.S. company so far.

A change in the tax treatment of Medicare subsidies triggered the non-cash expense, and the company will consider changes to the benefits it offers current and retired workers, Dallas-based AT&T said today in a regulatory filing.

AT&T, the biggest U.S. phone company, joins Caterpillar Inc., AK Steel Holding Corp. and 3M Co. in recording non-cash expenses against earnings as a result of the law. Health-care costs may shave as much as $14 billion from U.S. corporate profits, according to an estimate by benefits consulting firm Towers Watson. AT&T employed about 281,000 people as of the end of January.

Your phone bill will be going up and Caterpillar, AK Steel and 3M will be raising their prices. This will make them less competitive in the export market and impact any one else who does business with them. Although not announced it will do the same thing to Verizon, Alcatel and all other employers.

This means loss of business and loss of jobs.

Thanks Lefties. The country doesn't need jobs but Obamie needed a "legacy."

“Companies like AT&T, that have large employee bases, are going to have higher health-care costs and, therefore, lower earnings unless they can negotiate something or offer less to their employees,” said Chris Larsen, an analyst at Piper Jaffray & Co. in New York, who rates AT&T shares “overweight” and doesn’t own any himself.

AT&T previously received a tax-free benefit from the government to subsidize health-care costs for retirees, who would otherwise be on a Medicare Part D plan. Under the new bill, AT&T will no longer be able to deduct that subsidy.

“As a result of this legislation, including the additional tax burden, AT&T will be evaluating prospective changes to the active and retiree health-care benefits offered by the company,” the carrier said in the filing.


You can expect ATT to dump the retiree plans forcing them into Medicare. Alcatel has already changed their plan and you can expect others to follow. This further degrades Medicare and will force price increases on seniors who can barely survive now.

The active employees will also see their insurance costs go up and/or benefits go down. This is an effective pay cut in disposable income. Something else that the country does not need at this time.

I wonder how many of the Obamabots who voted for him will be smart enough to understand how bad he has just screwed them.

Thanks Obamie. Your care and concern for the country speaks for itself. You should be impeached for the harm caused.

A 25 word explanation as to why Muslim immigrants are problems to the native population.

This should explain why you cannot expect Muslims to assimilate and live within our culture.

The University have offered the students space in a multi-faith prayer room, but the students say they cannot use a space that is shared by all faiths.

We are a Christian nation

President Barack Obama said in Turkey : "We do not consider ourselves a Christian nation or a Jewish nation or a Muslim nation. We consider ourselves a nation of citizens who are bound by ideals and a set of values."

I found this very interesting. Do you know the Preamble for your state?


Alabama 1901, Preamble
We the people of the State of Alabama , invoking the favor and guidance of Almighty God, do ordain and establish the following Constitution..
Alaska 1956, Preamble We, the people of Alaska , grateful to God and to those who founded our nation and pioneered this great land.

....and onward for all 50 states.

After reviewing acknowledgments of God from all 50 state constitutions, one is faced with the prospect that maybe, Obama, the ACLU and the out-of-control federal courts are wrong!

But we must not forget that Obama was raised as a Muslim for the first 10 years of his life. That is huge. It also explains his statements here and his disdain for our allies. It also explains his absolute insult to Israel.

Hat tip to Mike L!

Republicans debase themselves

Let them eat cake!



And yes, I know the pic is about 100 years before Marie, but hey! This is a free blog!

It's been an interesting day. I mean the apologies are just flying from the Repub hoodoos and of course the Lefties are happy to have the opposition debasing themselves rather than standing up and saying, "Hey! We're mad as hell and don't expect us to get over it anytime soon!"

"And we'll try and shut down our nutcases if you will just try and keep yours from shooting at our member's offices."

I mean, wouldn't that be the least they can do?

Even the guy who gave money to the (most likely) fake Parkinson's victim has apologized. Brace up, buckoo!

But I will use that apology, as needless as I think it is, and we'll have an Apology Party!

Now, since it is the Lefties turn:

The Lefties spitting at the one legged veteran.

The Lefties burning a soldier in effigy.

The Lefties slashing the tires of the Repubs in WI.

The Lefties supporting ACRON, an organization that was complicit in aiding (what they believed) a pimp who wanted to defraud the banks, government and use under age illegal alien females.

The Lefties trashing a Repub office in Orlando.

The Lefties intimidating voters in Philly.

The Lefties attacking and disrupting an anti-illegal alien demonstration last Saturday in DC.

The Lefties attacking and hospitalizing a Tea Party demonstrator in St Louis.

The Lefties shooting up the office of a Repub Congressman from VA.

The Lefties posting lie after lie about Palin and her children.

..... I could go on, but surely it is time for milk and cookies....
