Long Day

I'm in Memphis tonight. My daughter is getting transferred to Ft. Bragg and is taking some furlough. I thought I'd keep her compay for the trip home. She picked me up at DFW at 1300 and we drove just beyond Memphis before finding a place to crash. God willing we will be back in Syracuse late Sat or early Sun morning. Been on the go since 0430 this morning and gotta get some rest. *yawn* My soldier girl is all through with training (2 years of it) and now, as she says, "I finally have a job." She's in the 82nd Airborne.

Illegal Immigration Survey

Charlie the ChiTown Cop sent me this link to an MSNBC survey.

The question is:

In July, Arizona will begin enforcing a new law that requires law enforcement officers to check someone’s immigration status if they have reason to suspect that he or she is in the country illegally. Do you think this is a good idea?

Go to this site, vote and then check the results. So far there are over two million responses.

Update 7/11/10:
Over three million votes, 96% in favor.

Update 7/13/10:
Over three million and a half votes, 96% in favor (3.4 million).

The US Marine Corps

This says it all.

Obama's Roots Are Showing

Seems like our Kenyan-born Community Organizer can't avoid entangling himself and his administration from organizing the political affairs of his homeland. Rooting around in his roots so to speak.

And of course Our Dearly Beloved Leader would never stoop so low as to use public funds to interject his own opinions into the political discourse of another country.

From the Daily Caller:

Republican Reps. Darrell Issa of California, Ileana Ros-Lehtinen of Florida and Chris Smith of New Jersey are calling for a probe to investigate whether Obama administration officials are violating federal law by using taxpayer money to lobby for a new constitution in Kenya that supports and legalizes abortion.

“The U.S. is spending taxpayer money on Kenya’s constitutional referendum,” Issa told The Daily Caller. “The underlying concern is that U.S. funds and efforts are being used to interfere in Kenya’s internal debate over abortion, which is part of the debate over the new constitution. There is evidence that U.S. funds are supporting groups and events with a pro-abortion agenda and that funds have been spent to advance a specific outcome on the referendum. If so, this would violate federal law.”

And of course we can expect the rest of the MSM to bring this possible breach of US law to the nation's attention.

[...]In a letter sent to Inspectors General of the U.S. Department of State and the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and to the Government Accountability Office (GAO), the lawmakers voiced their concerns.

“The Obama administration’s advocacy in support of Kenya’s proposed constitution may constitute a serious violation of the Siljander Amendment and, as such, may be subject to civil and criminal penalties …” the letter reads.

Passed in 2006, the Siljander Amendment prohibits the use of federal funds for abortions, stating that “none of the funds made available under this Act may be used to lobby for or against abortion and violations are subject to civil and criminal
penalties under the Antideficiency Act.”

According to the lawmakers’ letter, the criminal penalties the Obama administration officials could face include a fine of up to $5,000 and imprisonment for up to two years. Civil punishment would include suspension of duty without pay or termination.

Not content with the harvest of death in our own Country, abortionists and their supporters seek to spread this barbarism throughout the world. And they have no problem using our tax dollars to do so.

Satan's Rotisserie

An Islamic terrorist has just had his ticket punched and is now waiting in line for a ride on Hell's Rotisserie.

BEIRUT -- The leading Shiite cleric in Lebanon and one of the sect's most revered religious authorities, Grand Ayatollah Mohammed Hussein Fadlallah, died Sunday after a long illness. He was 75.

[...]Seen by some as a spiritual mentor to the Hezbollah militant movement and by others as a voice of pragmatism and religious moderation, Fadlallah enjoyed a following that stretched beyond Lebanon's borders to Iraq, the Gulf and as far away as central Asia.

He was seen as a religious moderate only by those who wanted to boil the Jooos prior to beheading them. This nutcase made sure that Muslim suicide truck drivers wore seat belts and used hand signals on their way to destroying the US Marine barracks (October 23, 1983 )and the US Embassy (April 18, 1983) in Beirut, Lebanon.

During Lebanon's 1975-90 civil war, he was linked to Iranian-backed Shiite militants who kidnapped Americans and other Westerners, and bombed the U.S. Embassy and Marine base in Lebanon, killing more than 260 Americans.

Western intelligence sources at the time said Fadlallah blessed the drivers of the vehicles used in the attack on the Marine barracks and a simultaneous bombing of French troops in Beirut, although the cleric repeatedly denied the assertion.

In this photograph taken a few days before his death, Imam Fedlallah demonstrates the diameter of the spit he expects Satan to ram up his ass as he is roasted over the bones of the Mad Child Molesting Prophet.

The photos below are of the Marine Barracks and the US Embassy in Beirut, Lebanon, 1983.

As an undergrad I remember two grad students, man and wife, who lived down the street from us. They both attended the American University in Beirut in the early sixties. It was a beautiful, beautiful city as they described it. Beirut was called the Paris of the Mediterrean back then --- until Muslim terrorists turned it into another shithole as is their want.

And The Truth ...

As we celebrate the 4th of July, please ponder for a moment how we got here.

Happy 4th of July

This just blew me away. A former Marine stuns a tea party rally in Douglas County, Georgia.
A conservative talk radio host, Herman Cain, is answering quesions from the crowd when the following patriotic, God-fearing vet speaks his mind.



God bless our armed forces- the men and women who serve our great Nation.

I believe we are in serious peril; deep, deep trouble as our heritage, our traditions and our liberties face extinction from a godless, liberal onslaught. Concerned Americans feel threatened and isolated during these times. We can say "In God we trust" until the cows come home but what does it accomplish if there are no actions behind our words? When it is perceived that we are in full retreat we must first stop running. In the Old Testament the way to begin the process of regeneration is thus:

Isaiah 11:12
And He will lift up a standard for the nations and assemble the banished ones of Israel, and will gather the dispersed of Judah From the four corners of the earth.

That is what that that gentlemen did in Douglas County; he raised a standard, a banner for patriots to rally under. Love of country is what binds us as a nation. Without that, we are merely another loose-knit social group that will be overwhelmed and engulfed by those who do share a vigorous national identity.

Know what you stand for. There are many diverse opinions that divide us; cling to the ones that unite us. Get involved! Vote! Volunteer to become precinct captains!

And pray for our Nation. In order for God to bless America, America must return to Him as the originator of our freedoms.
