Iranians celebrate the 1979 Revolution and the overthrow of the U.S.-supported Shah of Iran as a victory against the United States. By Chanting "Death to Ameria" in the streets.
So what do we do? Yes, give them nuclear capabilities! Sounds like a great plan Imam Obama!
These people have nothing better to do then to burn the US flag and burn us in effigy
And our Extremely Ignorant president wants to give them the means to destroy us.

"Stay the Course" and ”Protest, Protest, Protest”
Obama wants to create a racial-divide so that we would have even more chaos, that was the whole plan right from the beginning. Obama wants conflict and chaos.
Ignore all of the babbling and focus on the main word and message that is peppered throughout it…"Stay the Course" and ”Protest, Protest, Protest”.
What kind of leader sends representation to attend the funeral of a thug accused of trying to kill a police officer? The answer is a racist who pre-judges without any facts based on race and dislike of the police alone. He did the same thing with his buddy the Professor from Cambridge, Henry Gates at Harvard and with the George Zimmerman/ Trayvon Martin case.
I would hope that our own President did not say "stay the course" considering the fact that the "course" has been one of violence, looting and destruction of property against innocent citizens...but honestly it would not surprise me in the least if he did. If he didn't give words of support to this hate group then he needs to PUBLICLY correct what Sharpen has said, I would not put it past either of them to lie.

My Line on the Michael Brown Pile of Horse Crap and Black America Blaming Whitey for All Their Problems
Had Michael Brown gotten Wilson’s weapon from him and killed him with it, the story would not have been a big deal, but a concocted media story like this: Another cop killed by a stupid black youth that was off to spend his life in prison.
The point is that obviously, ‘had’ that had happened, it would have certainly changed the entire narrative.
Yeah, we would not have seen people, just a few Blacks barely removed from their ancestral tribes in Africa, burning down their own neighborhoods.
But apparently what this bunc of savages really want is two different things, … one for them and the members of their “Tribes” , and one for the rest of society. They want to be free to commit “minor crimes” such as burglary, rape, theft, assault, arson. breaking into other people’s homes and business’s and taking their “STUFF” and whatever else they feel like, but if law enforcement intervenes to protect the public’s interest is a race issue. And the Progressives, Liberals, of this country seem to be on board with the support of the Michael Brown’s, and Trayvon Martin's of this world.
People like Michael Brown have no one to blame for being shot to death but himself.
And these animals who are looting stores, rioting and burning down buildings deserve nothing better than whet Brown got. They are not protesting. They are using the self-inflicted death of Michael Brown as an excuse to steal and riot. Shooting at firefighters trying to put out the fires? Stealing big screen TVs? These “protesters” are vile, pathetic animals who deserve ZERO respect or consideration. And Sharpton, Obama and Holder and the rest of the race baiters should be held accountable for all damages to private and public property resulting from these riots.
So lets stop this Bull-Shit line of “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot” because that NEVER happened, it’s just another concocted line from Brown’s thug accomplice and his friends.

Tuesday's BIG Election Landslide.
What we saw on Tuesday, (election day) was a massive Republican Win and a mandate for the president to work with congress . This showed what the people want! If it didn’t then of course Republicans would not have won as big as they did.
But the question that lies before us, is will the he mandate fix the mess created by obama and the Democrats.
Will it bring the government back under control, in spending?
Will it repeal obamacare? Of course all this remains to be seen, and personally I’ll believe it when I see it, as I’ll believe ANYTHING that this president says when I see it.
The Dummies on the left in that Progressive bunker seem to think that because Obama is “Still the President” that nothing that happened Tuesday will matter. And maybe the American People are really that Stupid to believe it.
Let him “VETO” everything That's fine People are fed up with you democrats, and if you thought Hillary was a Shoe In for 2016? Just let obama place his signature on a lot of veto's and we’ll see what happens. What I expect to see is more and more, various versions of Obama’s FAILED Democrat Policies and Ideas.
So I have one thing to say about these idiotic people and their ideas, You are all are freaken crazy. And that you should wake up and realize that you lost. And you can thank obama for that landslide win. But you know you can always move to a country that has Socialized medicine you want it so badly...
And one more thing! How come, whenever the Democrats LOSE, they want Bipartisanship?
Where was that Bi-partisanship when Obama’s Hopey-Changey thingy was in his plans?

The Disasters America Will Face With Obama
By Marc Thiessen the Washington Post.
1. Obamacare will not be repealed.
2. The unprecedented levels of spending in Obama’s first four years will become the new floor, as America sets new records for fiscal profligacy and debt.
3. Job creators will face massive tax increases, and more Americans will come off the tax rolls—resulting in fewer citizens with a stake in keeping taxes low and more with a stake in protecting benefits.
4. Government dependency, already at record levels, will continue to grow.
5. Four lost years in dealing with the entitlement crisis will become eight—digging us into a hole from which we may not be able to emerge.
6. Obama, unworried about the impact of gas and electricity prices on his reelection, will finally wage the regulatory war on fossil fuels the Left demands.
7. He will unleash the Environmental Protection Agency to impose crushing new burdens on U.S. business.
8. His administration’s assault on religious freedom will go on and expand to new areas.
9. The Defense Department will be gutted, with cuts so deep that America will no longer be a superpower.
10. Obama could have the opportunity to appoint more liberal Supreme Court justices, ending the Roberts court in all but name for a generation.
This is, of course, not a complete list—not by a long shot.

Why does this remind me of someone else?
The damage has already been done to this Nation beginning with the "Obama Revolution" is so vast it will take much longer than one election cycle to repair. What the Occupy movement has done with their filthy behavior should have been the awakening of public awareness of what’s to come and by whom. Now The election of Mr.DiBlasio
will represent a very wide swing of the political pendulum. New York will turn into either another Chicago or Detroit or a possibly a composite of both. I feel sorry for New Yorkers. The "scum" has over-run our Country and now our Cities! This man is frightening enough, but what's more, a socialist who is soft on crime and big on entitlements. More Crime and more welfare and handouts for the non productive, The last thing New York City needs, It seems like people are still foolish enough to believe a politician when he say's "Hope and Change"? Those words scares the hell out of me since O'idiot was elected.

Lance Armstrong plays the I'm so sorry, please forgive me game!
Lance Armstrong in an interview with Oprah Winfrey delivered an
emotional apology and even broke down in tears when he delivered his
after the fact and almost 20 years too late apology
After being stripped of his seven Tour de France titles because of doping charges, Armstrong addressed the world and said, "I'm sorry." Well yeah! After he disgraced the cycling sport, his country and his family and only after he was caught, he’s sorry, well boo hoo, too little and much too late.
Liberals like Lance Armstrong like Anthony Weiner, and David Letterman, and yes Hillary Clinton are big on apologies after they get caught!
I shouldn’t be surprised, liberals like to give excuses for their misdeeds. Well good luck with that nonsense. It’s time to roll up the welcome for these useful idiots and ignore them, and not give them a platform to ask for our forgiveness.

Who is the Colorado Shooter? One of America’s finest, a registered Democrat?.
As the new Batman movie played on the screen, a gunman dressed in black and wearing a hideous custom.
and a helmet, body armor and a gas mask stepped through a side
door.
Here we go again, with the “Rush to Judgment” syndrome~! With No Facts, none what so ever.
What do those have to do with relevance to the circumstances at hand?
We are in the process of THOROUGHLY screwing ourselves, Politically, Morally and Ethically, not to mention Judicially~!
He is just a nut with bad ideas and obsessions. Fantasy and reality
overlapped for this loon and people died because of it. He should
probably have been institutionalized years ago, but the libs saw to it
that most of our psychiatric hospitals got shut down. So most of the
crazies are out here among us, along with their liberal ‘right to be
crazy, and their liberal right to victimize innocent people. By the way, I have not heard anything on the reports of a second shooter, Chief Dan Oates has not mentioned that, in his press conferences to the best of my knowledge.

Suicide attackers kill five in raid on US-based aid group in Afghanistan
Kandahar, Afghanistan - Suicide attackers blew up a truck bomb and raided the offices of a US charity Monday, killing five Afghans in the second attack in recent days on American interests in the city of Kandahar. The bombers struck outside a compound housing offices of the UN and US-based International Relief and Development (IRD) in Kandahar, as Turkey gears up to host a major conference designed to quicken efforts to end the 10-year war. The bombing came two days after 17 people died in the deadliest attack yet in Kabul against the US-led NATO mission, including 10 Americans.
What I'd like to know is why weren't there any photographers there to phonograph the caskets as they did every time an American was killed during the Bush years in office?
And publicize the Death count.

Old Soldiers Never Die,They Just Fade Away.
Mr. President, Mr. Speaker and distinguished members of the Congress:
I stand on this rostrum with a sense of deep humility and great pride – humility in the wake of those great architects of our history who have stood here before me, pride in the reflection that this home of legislative debate represents human liberty in the purest form yet devised.
Here are centered the hopes and aspirations and faith of the entire human race.
I do not stand here as advocate for any partisan cause, for the issues are fundamental and reach quite beyond the realm of partisan considerations. They must be resolved on the highest plane of national interest if our course is to prove sound and our future protected.
I trust, therefore, that you will do me the justice of receiving that which I have to say as solely expressing the considered viewpoint of a fellow American.
I address you with neither rancor nor bitterness in the fading twilight of life, with but one purpose in mind: to serve my country.
The issues are global, and so interlocked that to consider the problems of one sector oblivious to those of another is to court disaster for the whole. While Asia is commonly referred to as the gateway to Europe, it is no less true that Europe is the gateway to Asia, and the broad influence of the one cannot fail to have its impact upon the other.
There are those who claim our strength is inadequate to protect on both fronts, that we cannot divide our effort. I can think of no greater expression of defeatism.
If a potential enemy can divide his strength on two fronts, it is for us to counter his efforts. The Communist threat is a global one. Its successful advance in one sector threatens the destruction of every other sector. You cannot appease or otherwise surrender to communism in Asia without simultaneously undermining our efforts to halt its advance in Europe.
Beyond pointing out these general truisms, I shall confine my discussion to the general areas of Asia…
While I was not consulted prior to the President’s decision to intervene in support of the Republic of Korea, that decision, from a military standpoint, proved a sound one.
As I say, it proved a sound one, as we hurled back the invader and decimated his forces. Our victory was complete, and our objectives within reach, when Red China intervened with numerically superior ground forces.
This created a new war and an entirely new situation, a situation not contemplated when our forces were committed against the North Korean invaders; a situation which called for new decisions in the diplomatic sphere to permit the realistic adjustment of military strategy. Such decisions have not been forthcoming.
While no man in his right mind would advocate sending our ground forces into continental China, and such was never given a thought, the new situation did urgently demand a drastic revision of strategic planning if our political aim was to defeat this new enemy as we had defeated the old.
Apart from the military need, as I saw it, to neutralize the sanctuary protection given the enemy north of the Yalu, I felt that military necessity in the conduct of the war made necessary –
(1) The intensification of our economic blockade against China.
(2) The imposition of a naval blockade against the China coast.
(3) Removal of restrictions on air reconnaissance of China’s coastal area and of Manchuria.
(4) Removal of restrictions on the forces of the republic of China on Formosa, with logistical support to contribute to their effective operations against the Chinese mainland.
For entertaining these views, all professionally designed to support our forces committed to Korea and to bring hostilities to an end with the least possible delay and at a saving of countless American and Allied lives, I have been severely criticized in lay circles, principally abroad, despite my understanding that from a military standpoint the above views have been fully shared in the past by practically every military leader concerned with the Korean campaign, including our own Joint Chiefs of Staff.
I called for reinforcements, but was informed that reinforcements were not available.
I made clear that if not permitted to destroy the enemy built-up bases north of the Yalu, if not permitted to utilize the friendly Chinese force of some six hundred thousand men on Formosa, if not permitted to blockade the China coast to prevent the Chinese Reds from getting succor from without, and if there were to be no hope of major reinforcements, the position of the command from the military standpoint forbade victory.
We could hold in Korea by constant maneuver and at an approximate area where our supply-line advantages were in balance with the supply-line disadvantages of the enemy, but we could hope at best for only an indecisive campaign with its terrible and constant attrition upon our forces if the enemy utilized his full military potential.
I have constantly called for the new political decisions essential to a solution.
Efforts have been made to distort my position. It has been said in effect that I was a warmonger. Nothing could be further from the truth.
I know war as few other men now living know it, and nothing to me is more revolting.
I have long advocated its complete abolition, as its very destructiveness on both friend and foe has rendered it useless as a means of settling international disputes.
Indeed, on the second day of September, 1945, just following the surrender of the Japanese nation on the battleship Missouri, I formally cautioned as follows: “Men since the beginning of time have sought peace. Various methods through the ages have been attempted to devise an international process to prevent or settle disputes between nations. From the very start workable methods were found in so far as individual citizens were concerned, but the mechanics of an instrumentality of larger international scope have never been successful.
“Military alliances, balances of power, leagues of nations, all in turn failed, leaving the only path to be by way of the crucible of war. The utter destructiveness of war now blocks out this alternative. We have had our last chance. If we will not devise some greater and more equitable system, our Armageddon will be at our door. The problem basically is theological and involves a spiritual recrudescence, an improvement of human character that will synchronize with our almost matchless advances in science, art, literature, and all material and cultural developments of the past two thousand years. It must be of the spirit if we are to save the flesh.” But once war is forced upon us, there is no other alternative than to apply every available means to bring it to a swift end. War’s very object is victory, not prolonged indecision.
In war there is no substitute for victory.
There are some who for varying reasons would appease Red China. They are blind to history’s clear lesson, for history teaches with unmistakable emphasis that appeasement but begets new and bloodier war. It points to no single instance where this end has justified that means, where appeasement had led to more than a sham peace.
Like blackmail, it lays the basis for new and successively greater demands until, as in blackmail, violence becomes the only alternative. Why, my soldiers asked of me, surrender military advantages to an enemy in the field? I could not answer.
Some may say to avoid spread of the conflict into an all-out war with China. Others, to avoid Soviet intervention. Neither explanation seems valid, for China is already engaging with the maximum power it can commit, and the Soviet will not necessarily mesh its actions with our moves. Like a cobra, any new enemy will more likely strike whenever it feels that the relativity in military or other potential is in its favor on a worldwide basis.
The tragedy of Korea is further heightened by the fact that its military action is confined to its territorial limits. It condemns that nation, which it is our purpose to save, to suffer the devastating impact of full naval and air bombardment while the enemy’s sanctuaries are fully protected from such attack and devastation.
Of the nations of the world, Korea alone, up to now, is the sole one which has risked its all against communism. The magnificence of the courage and fortitude of the Korean people defies description. They have chosen to risk death rather than slavery. Their last words to me were: “Don’t scuttle the Pacific.”
I have just left your fighting sons in Korea. They have met all tests there, and I can report to you without reservation that they are splendid in every way.
It was my constant effort to preserve them and end this savage conflict honorably and with the least loss of time and a minimum sacrifice of life. Its growing bloodshed has caused me the deepest anguish and anxiety. Those gallant men will remain often in my thoughts and in my prayers always.
I am closing my fifty-two years of military service. When I joined the army, even before the turn of the century, it was the fulfillment of all my boyish hopes and dreams.
The world has turned over many times since I took the oath on the plain at West Point, and the hopes and dreams have long since vanished, but I still remember the refrain of one of the most popular barracks ballads of that day which proclaimed most proudly that old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
And like the old soldier of that ballad, I now close my military career and just fade away, an old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave him the light to see that duty. Good-by.
I stand on this rostrum with a sense of deep humility and great pride – humility in the wake of those great architects of our history who have stood here before me, pride in the reflection that this home of legislative debate represents human liberty in the purest form yet devised.

And like the old soldier of that ballad, I now close my military career and just fade away, an old soldier who tried to do his duty as God gave him the light to see that duty. Good-by.

Mass brawl at theme park after Muslim women are banned from going on rides unless they remove their head scarves
By Mark Duell Mail on Line
A theme park in New York was forced to shut its gates to visitors when a mass brawl broke out after Muslim women were banned from rides unless they removed their headscarves.
Two park rangers were hospitalized and 15 people were arrested in the scuffle at Rye Playland in New York yesterday.
The theme park was crowded with around 6,000 visitors. Roughly 3,000 were in a Muslim tour group celebrating a holiday at the end of Ramadan.
If these people can't accept and adjust to the customs of the USA then they should get the hell out of here.

New CNN Poll: 27% of Democrats Want to Dump Obama
The Washington Examiner
A new poll by CNN and ORC International finds that 27 percent of Democrats would like to see their party nominate a candidate other than Barack Obama for president in 2012.
In response to the question, "Do you think the Democratic party should renominate Barack Obama as the party's candidate for president in 2012, or do you think the Democratic party should nominate a different candidate for president in 2012?" -- 72 percent said they wanted to see Obama renominated. But 27 percent, slightly more than one in every four, said they wanted to see Democrats nominate a different candidate. One percent had no opinion.
The poll was taken August 24-25. In a survey taken in early August, 28 percent of Democrats said they wanted a different candidate. Polls taken in July and before showed Obama in a stronger position, with no more than 22 percent saying they preferred a different candidate. The current poll is based on interviews with 463 Democrats and has a margin of error of 4.5 percent.
The new poll is another indication of Democratic unhappiness with the president, but it does not mean Obama will face a challenge in his party's primaries. Despite the complaints of a few liberals like Sen. Bernard Sanders, the odds of a Democrat opposing the president appear to be something less than zero. But the new poll is still a matter of concern to Democrats, because it is yet another indication that there is significant disillusionment with the president within his own party. Whether those disaffected Democrats will come around to supporting Obama next year is an open question -- and perhaps the most worrying of the president's re-election bid.

Obama seeks bounce back.
WASHINGTON – Mired in one of the bleakest patches of his presidency, Barack Obama hits the US heartland Monday, seeking to rekindle the spirit of hope which swept him to the White House but has been crushed by a lame economy.
Obama will embark on a fabled ritual of American politics – a bus tour to rural areas of Minnesota, Iowa and Illinois, which have all felt the lash of the economic crisis and will be important to his 2012 re-election bid.
Hope is a commodity in short supply, as fears mount that the tepid recovery from the worst economic crisis since the 1930s will fizzle into a second recession and with unemployment stubbornly pegged at 9.1 percent.
A staggering 74 percent of Americans think the country is moving in the wrong direction, according to a RealClearPolitics polls average, and a CNN survey this month found 60 percent think the economy is still in a downturn.
Obama, reeling from a showdown with Republicans over debt, has seen his approval rating dip below 45 percent, and slowed growth in the economy and jobs market are casting a cloud over his 2012 hopes.
Just a few months ago, after the killing of Al-Qaeda chief Osama bin Laden, many commentators were predicting Obama would stroll to the second term that every presidency needs to be termed a historic success.
But when Republican Tea Party lawmakers drove the United States to the brink of a historic default in a row over raising the government’s borrowing authority, Obama’s prestige took a severe hit.
As they say in Chinese,
Rots of Ruck.

U.S fears Al Qaeda plotters in Yemen trying to acquire deadly ricin for terrorist attack..
Al-Qaeda's affiliate in Yemen has been trying to acquire large quantities of castor beans, which contain the toxic rich protein.
It is believed the poison will be packed around small explosives which could disperse the white powdery substance on detonation.
It is so deadly that even a speck of it can kill someone if inhaled or taken into the blood stream.
The poison was used in the 1978 assassination in London of Bulgarian dissident Georgi Markov and, in 2002, police raided a facility said to be plotting its manufacture in the UK capital.
Al Qaeda intend on detonating the explosives in enclosed areas like shopping centers and airports.
Could this be the start of War number Four?
