Islamic extremists and Democrats. Not seeing a whole lot of difference here.
Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari seems to be heading towards fresh trouble as the prayer leader of the Lal Masjid in the heart of Islamabad has issued a fatwa against him.
Maulana Abdul Ghafar, the prayer leader, seems to be irked by Zardari's "you're gorgeous" compliment to US vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin during a meeting.
When Zardari was asked to keep shaking hands with Palin for the cameras, he said, "If he's (the aide) insisting, I might hug you."
He said the act was un-Islamic and unbecoming of a head of state of a Muslim country.
Maulana also said that Zardari shamed the entire Pakistani by publicly making indecent gestures towards Palin in Washington last Thursday.
An artist's video game that is being exhibited at a free-speech exhibit in Chicago challenges players to kill the president.
The video game is part of a "confrontational art" exhibit by Chicago-based artist Wafaa Bilal.
In the 3-D game, "The Night of Bush Capturing; A Virtual Jihadi," players are sent on a mission to kill President George W. Bush.
Bilal, 42, said his art is a personal attempt to deal with the deaths of citizens in the country of his birth. The artist said his brother died in Iraq in 2004 from a U.S bomb.
The game is part of the Freedom of Speech exhibition at FLATFILE Galleries. It runs until Aug. 22.
What a coincidence. The Big Feed is currently holding its free speech exhibition. Burn in hell you Muslim dirtbag.
I read somewhere her name was Thelma. I'm not sure if I'd hit that or not. I don't want to commit to anything that might come back to bite me in the ass.
The Republican National Committee (RNC) released a statement Monday about Democratic Presidential Candidate Sen. Barack Obama's (D-IL) ties to a campaign advisor who received what they categorize as “special loans” from Countrywide Financial Corp. Chief Executive Officer Angelo Mozilo.
The claims are related to Jim Johnson, who is one of Obama's top advisors and the former Chief Executive Officer of Fannie Mae. The RNC quotes a Wall Street Journal article in its statement about the connection. The Journal article suggests that Johnson was one of a few of Mozilo's friends who received special loans due to their connections. The rates for at least two of the loans were described as “below market values” and Johnson is said to have taken out loans totaling $7 million.
“Barack Obama routinely rails against lobbyists and corporate insiders, yet his campaign is stocked with both,” the RNC's Press Secretary Alex Conant said. “Now it turns out that the man leading his vice presidential selection team is receiving highly questionable loans. With millions of Americans struggling to pay their mortgages, it raises serious questions about Obama's judgment when we learn members of his campaign leadership are receiving favors that the average American would never get.”
More background:
About James Johnson: He's part of the permanent government of this country, a long-time Democratic fixer (Mondale and Kerry campaigns), former CEO of Fannie Mae, and as such a big buyer of Countrywide loans. He's a guy who sits on a bunch of corporate boards, etc.
Outrage: "That reeks most high," said Bonnie Russell, a public relations specialist and vocal critic of Mr. Mozilo, according to the Sun. "Where's the 'change to believe in' if they're playing the same old game using the same old players?"
The sanctimonious Obama, before he was called on his bullshit:
Man...He sure sounded angry about Countrywide...In a stuttering and babbling kinda way. And note the boos from the Obamamaniacs.
Well...here's what the Obamamaniacs were saying before Obama's outrage and hypocrisy blew up in his double-speaking face (taken from Obama's community forum on his own website):
You know who Countrywide is...the biggest predatory mortgage rapists of them all.So you can bet your bottom dollar if Penn is tied to them...at the very least,the Clintons knew about it.
Hillary Clinton's Chief Strategist is connected to Countrywide Financial, raper of the Black community in the mortgage loan crisis, and Blackwater, raper of the public tax dollars that have this country in so much debt because of their murderous deeds....Why aren't we yelling this from the roof tops!! Why is Obama sitting on this?
And here's Obama's take now. He doesn't sound nearly so sanctimonious or outraged. He just sounds like a retard:
And in case you weren't paying attention...The Cliff notes:
Hey...Obamamaniacs, why aren't you yelling from the roof tops!!?? Why is Obama just sitting on this? Perhaps it's because your boy now has to eat his own bullshit. Just like you've been eating it.
Czech President Vaclav Klaus said Tuesday he is ready to debate Al Gore about global warming, as he presented the English version of his latest book that argues environmentalism poses a threat to basic human freedoms.
'I many times tried to talk to have a public exchange of views with him, and he's not too much willing to make such a conversation,' Klaus said. 'So I'm ready to do it.'
Klaus was speaking a the National Press Building in Washington to present his new book, Blue Planet in Green Shackles - What Is Endangered: Climate or Freedom?, before meeting with Vice President Dick Cheney Wednesday.
'My answer is it is our freedom and, I might add, and our prosperity,' he said.
Klaus, an economist, said he opposed the 'climate alarmism' perpetuated by environmentalism trying to impose their ideals, comparing it to the decades of communist rule he experienced growing up in Soviet-dominated Czechoslovakia.
'Like their (communist) predecessors, they will be certain that they have the right to sacrifice man and his freedom to make their idea reality,' he said.
'In the past, it was in the name of the Marxists or of the proletariat - this time, in the name of the planet,' he added.
If I were president...I would build a really big bonfire in Gary, Indiana...The biggest the world has ever seen...All Americans would be invited to come and witness the awesome spectacle...Correction, all Americans would be compelled to come...I would make it one big party to celebrate America...There would be all kinds of neat things to do at my party...and good food to eat...potato salad for all...and lots of porta-potties...no waiting...live musical acts abound...puppet shows for the children...bingo for the elderly...We would talk...laugh, cry...all that stuff...then...at precisely midnight, on the third day, I would abruptly and emphatically call an end to the festivities and ask everyone to leave...I would then, at 6:00 a.m. that morning, issue an executive order to forcibly deport any person within the continental United States outside of a 10 mile radius from Gary, Indiana...that would leave, in my estimation, only the fine Americans who had stayed after the party to help clean up...and perhaps a few people who couldn't remember where they parked their car...all the others?...deported to a country where it's not common courtesy to help someone clean up after a party...It is with the people who stayed after to help pick up--the hearty stock of after-hangers--that I would rebuild America...That's what I would do if I were President.
