Decision maker discovered.........from Rico
I had wondered what thought processes Obama-Soetoro used when making some of his absurd decisions, finally deciding he was heavily self-medicated and THAT explained his wacky approach to reality.
This worked for a while, until he left this decision-making device behind after a recent cabinet meeting.
Oh, that makes things perfectly clear....he was using this while heavily medicated!
Muslim Student Association
David Horowitz gave a speech at the University of California at San
Diego. After his speech, students were invited to come up and ask
questions. The video below shows one of them, a 20-something Arab
girl in full Muslim head covering and wearing the PLO’s trademark Keffiyeh scarf draped around her throat and chest. She identifies
herself as a member of the Muslim Student Association (“MSA”) at the
university and challenges Horowitz as to why he says the MSA is
radical.
She
begins her question to Horowitz. “I was reading your literature – I
found that much more interesting than the talk – and I found some very
interesting things about the MSA which is very active on campus and it
is hosting our annual “Hitler Youth” week.” Without missing a beat, she
wisecracks. “You should come out to those events.” She then
continues. “If you could clarify the connection between the MSA and the
Jihad terrorist networks – because last I checked, we had to do our own
fundraising and we never get any help from anyone.”
This is Horowitz’s reply. “Will you condemn Hamas here and now?”
The
young woman, obviously taken aback, stammers, “I’m sorry, what?”
Horowitz repeats his question, at which point she irritably asks him,
“Are you asking me to put myself on a cross?”
He then tells her
that she obviously didn’t read his pamphlet because it reveals that the
MSA is part of the Muslim Brotherhood network. At that point, the girl
interrupts him to protest that she can’t possibly answer his question.
“If I say something, I am sure I will be arrested for reasons of
Homeland Security.” Then she clarifies it. “If I support Hamas,
because your question forces me to condemn Hamas, if I support Hamas, I
look really bad.”
“Well, if you don’t condemn Hamas,”
replies Horowitz, “obviously you support it. Case closed.”
He then
talks about a speech he gave at UC Santa Barbara where the front row was
filled with about 30 members of the MSA. When he’d asked them
to condemn Hamas and Hezbollah, they’d refused just like the girl in
front of him now. Horowitz than repeats to her the same question he
asked the leader of that MSA group in Santa Barbara.
“I’m a Jew.
The head of Hezbollah has said that he hopes that we (Jews) will gather
in Israel so he doesn’t have to hunt us down globally.” At this point, Horowitz stops and leans towards the young girl. “For it or against it?”
Without batting an eye, the girl replies. “For it.”

(Iqbal al Yahud!) means "Death to Jews."
Muslims Attack Jewish Synagogue In Tunis Screaming Death To Jews
Muslims attacking synagogue in Tunis (anti-Semitism in Tunisia)
In 1948 there were 120,000 Jews living in Tunisia. Today -- after anti-Jewish government decrees were passed, synagogues destroyed, and Jews attacked and killed in the period following independence in the 50s and 60s -- there are less than 1,000 remaining in a nation of over 10 million.
Yet even this minuscule remnant of that ancient community (which dates back to Roman Times) is too much for the recently emboldened Tunisian masses -- what Simon Tisdall would no doubt wistfully refer to the as the authentic Arab Street -- who recently saw fit to vent their frustration over one of the most repressive Arab regimes in the world by engaging in a hate fest outside one of the last remaining synagogues in Tunis.
Yes, the chant you hear in the video (Iqbal al Yahud!) means "Death to Jews."

Wisconsin.................by DJ Elliott
This is just my short opinion on how to deal with the unions in Wisconsin:
Just a thought: When the teachers took "sick" and then went to protest, they were commiting Fraud.
They lied in order to take a payed day off - criminal Fraud.
Rarely enforced because most do not rub it in the face of the boss and when they do they are fired.
Did the Union "Solicit" this "Organized Fraud".
Solicitation of a crime carries the same penalties as the crime.
The Union leadership solicited how many counts of Fraud?
Under RICO, doesn't that make this "Organized Criminal Activity" and grounds for seizure of assets...
With each and every teacher that participated facing 1 count
and the organizers facing as many Solicitation counts as could be proven.
I would accept the resignations of each and every one of the participating teachers - in return for not criminally procecuting them.
I would ask for warrents to see the Union communication and who specifically Solicited multiple counts of Fraud.
I would freeze their assets pending determination under RICO.
As to the union dues being automatically withheld, paying a kickback to have a job is governed under "extortion".
The investigation would be grounds for the payroll side to stop all such payments or face accessory charges.
The Union and supporters have too many skeletons in the closet.
They and the politicians supporting would fold rather than face legal investigation and potential seisure of assets.
The precident would chill out the fights that are going to occur across this nation and
Any seisures would help the budget...

In all fairness...from Rico
I 'pick' on Benyamin of the FED a LOT, but he is not the ONLY Central Banker to recklessly print money these days.
Look at these charts. Do you see a pattern?
- This is clearly a race to the bottom, with more than just the FED madly 'printing' money...
Hmmmmmm.....and these Central Bankers hate and loathe gold & silver like vampires hate the cross & holy water for WHAT reason?
- Because fiat currencies can be thus 'manipulated' [read: devalued/understand: wealth-value stolen from YOU].
The recent upsurge in silver and gold on not just the COMEX and the NYMEX seems to indicate that many are realizing that there is decreasing utility and 'value' in paper contingent 'promises' when compared to hard commodities.
- "Trust me, I'm from the Government" isn't playing very well these days......
