Gadhaffi Death Perfectly Timed

rjjrdq — Sat, 22 Oct 2011 07:51:01 +0000

I say, give credit where credit is due. Apparently, Barack Obama doesn’t feel the same way. He has no problem taking credit for somebody else’s plan. Well, why not? Taking credit for his own plans would be a disaster. That’s all right Barry, I’ll give you all the credit you deserve.

The timing of all this must seem extraordinary even to the most hardcore social justice pundits and useful idiot minons. Egyptians magically revolts against Hosni Mubarak after 30 years, and as the Muslim Brotherhood spread their wings across the rest of the Arab Street, Bin Laden suddenly ends up dead, although his body was disposed of so quickly, there is no way to confirm the event actually occurred. We have the Palestinians-a group of thugs that even other Muslim nations can’t seem to stomach, make their pitch for statehood at the expense of Israel’s borders. Obama encouraged it, and now the Palestinians are on the verge of having the United Nations unilaterally declare them a state. Then we had the illegal war in Libya, where Obama violated the War Powers act. After a few days of barking from the Republicans, it suddenly became a non-issue. Even clowns like John McCain jumped on board with the al-Qaeda led rebels in that country. Anything to get rid of Gadhaffi, eh, John? Well, he got his wish, apparently. We’ve all heard the news now, that Moammar the man with a thousand spellings Gadhaffi, has been not only overthrown, but killed. Graphic images purport to show the former Libyan dictator in his final seconds. Something we didn’t get with Bin Laden.

It’s all happening so fast, democracy is taking hold at breathtaking speed, Obama’s policies are so wondrous-let’s put some icing on the cake. Barry has announced that the last troops will leave Iraq at the end of the year. It’s a promise he made, and he’s sticking to it. The problem is, that the promise was made under George Bush in 2008. The agreement then was to have all troops out of Iraq before 2012. That is exactly the plan Obama is implementing. He’s getting the credit, but it isn’t his plan at all. However, it fits nicely with the rest of the events in the Middle East this year.

Sounds just great, doesn’t it? Well, here’s what has been left in the wake of this Arab Spring. The Muslim Brotherhood is set to take over in Egypt, with the largest army in the Middle East and control of the Suez Canal. The Coptic Christians being slaughtered in Egypt aren’t too happy about it, but hey, the pangs of democracy can be painful…Iran is on the verge of nuclear capability, and they’ve already expressed their intent to use nuclear weapons. A defenseless Iraq must be happy about that. I blame George Bush for that fiasco. Now we have al-Qaeda in oil rich Libya. There’s still a no-fly zone there for now. Why is that? These rebels have been warned by NATO that they themselves will be subject to bombing raids unless they knock off the brutal human rights abuses they are currently committing. Nice Job Barry.

We can’t forget Afghanistan. With no plan at all, and the Taliban just waiting for us to leave, Barry’s plan is to negotiate with moderate elements. Head chopping, female circumcising, woman stoning, anti-Western monsters see negotiation as weakness. They’ll just wait it out in Pakistan until the troops leave.

Oh, yeah, Pakistan. The same country that handed nuclear technology over to North Korea and Syria…Oh yeah, Syria, who’s leader is engaging in a slaughter that would make Gadhaffi proud. Barry’s done nothing there.

If there was ever a better example of destabilization, it would be Barack Obama’s Middle East policy. Long after he leaves, the rest of the world will have to deal with the mess he’s left. Only this time, al-Qaeda and its parent, the Muslim Brotherhood will have billions of dollars in oil revenue, and financial aid from the dhimmi West in order to continue their conquest of the world. That’s not rhetoric that’s the stated goal of the brotherhood.

Do you think Mitt Romney can clean that up? I haven’t heard much from him on foreign policy. What about Rick Perry? Right. Herman Cain even admits he has no foreign policy knowledge. Any of the rest of them? Well, you never know who will step up to the plate when the game is on the line, but right now, I don’t see anyone equipped to deal with mess Obama has left. Even more disturbing is that Obama could get another four years to turn the Arab Spring into a worldwide spring, like the occupy Wall Street debacle, the anarchist encrusted WTO protests, the million man illegal immigration marches-what do you know, those things are already occurring.

If the timing of these events doesn’t convince you they are contrived, I don’t know what to say to convince you. Anybody on the right will be better than Obama, but at the same time, we can’t afford the lesser of two evils. Obama has wrought havoc on not only the United States, but the world. We need someone who can do a cleanup of historic proportions. Who’s going to step up?

Obama’s Palestinian Debacle

rjjrdq — Wed, 21 Sep 2011 02:24:52 +0000

Well, he shot his mouth off, calling on Israel to unilaterally return to its indefensible 1967 borders. The demand was met with, depending on who you asked, with mild irritation, or outrage from Israel and any supporters. The Palestinians, realizing what a stupid request it was in the first place, took matters into their own hands. Botched foreign policy in action.

Since Obama took office, he has shown nothing but contempt for Israel. He couldn’t come out and outright demonize the tiny country, because he had the Jewish vote on his side in the United States. That bode well in states like Florida. He also had the Muslim albatross around his neck, which caused him to move slower than he would have liked to. How that albatross translated into Jewish votes is anybody’s guess. My guess is it’s a party thing, not an Obama infatuation. He’s moved fast enough though. Bankrolling the Arab spring, letting Iran continue their nuclear weapons program, funding the Palestinian Authority to the tune of $390 million a year, all the while admonishing Israel over building settlements on what is their land-not the Palestinians. Obama backs a Palestinian state. He backs one with Israel shrunk to its 1967 borders, with a now hostile Egypt next door. Remember 1973? Now Abbas and the rest of the goons at the PO are forcing his hand. It’s put up or shut up.

It looks like the Palestinian Authority has the votes in the U.N. to declare themselves a state. A state within Israel as well. Remember, the PO wants Israel pushed back, and if this votes goes through as expected, they will assume that land is theirs. It is not, and Israel will make that very clear. You can see what’s going to happen here. Mahmoud Abbas has already stated he will not recognize an Israeli state. Now he’s going for statehood, sending the the mother of four suicide bombers to the U.N. as an emissary. You can’t make this up. He’s going to try and wrench sympathy from the U.N. with the mother of suicidal thugs. It looks like it might work too. That means problems, certainly for Israel, but for Barack Obama as well.

He set this up, he coaxed the PO, and now that these unpredictable savages have gone off the rails, Obama is realizing that he doesn’t have the control that he thought. Funny, he made that same mistake domestically. If the U.S. vetoes the PO bid, it will go against everything Obama promised. The difference is, Obama wanted Israel to capitulate. Now it’s going to get bloody. Not only that, congress is for the most part pro-Israel, and Abbas and co. would see their gravy train from the U.S. cut off in such a case. There’s even legislation floating around that would gut the money going to the U.N. Well, if there was anything positive about the PO declaring themselves a state, its that the United States would save a boatload of what is now wasted money.

We’ll see what the Muslim empty suit does. It’s going to take a real leader to step up now, and as we know, Obama is no leader. But he is a Muslim, and to throw his people under the bus now would be a disaster for him. He knows he can’t stop Israel from defending itself. I’m sure the Muslim street expects him to try. I wish he would. Maybe we could get rid of him even faster.

al-Qaeda Joins the United Nations

rjjrdq — Sun, 18 Sep 2011 06:14:30 +0000

I’m not the first person to suggest that Barack Obama is not only taking orders from the United Nations, but that ultimately, he may run for Secretary General of the corrupt, socialist dictrocracy. As self-destructive as they are dangerous, their latest move, facilitated by all the resources Barack Obama could heap upon them (courtesy the U.S. taxpayer) shouldn’t be surprising given the honors they’ve bestowed on thugs in the past.

The U.N. General Assembly voted overwhelmingly to hand what was formerly Libya’s seat in the world body to the rebels that now control that country. Yes, Libya did have a voice in the international matters of the United Nations. Remember when they invited him to New York to blather on and on? Well, now they’ve voted the rebels to do the same.

The rebels-or transitional council (whatever they call themselves) are being led by a guy named Mustafa Abdel Jalil. Don’t know him? He was the former justice minister under Ghadaffi. You saw that right, an ex Ghadaffi thug is now the head of the rebels. Justice Minister. Of course, we know what kind of justice Ghadaffi exacted on his people, and now the administer himself has maneuvered himself into the graces of the United Nations. Not all the various tribes in Libya are happy with this guy, nor should they be. But just in case things get out of hand in Libya between the various rebel factions, Jalil has created a brutal buffer between himself and the unwashed masses.

Keep in mind that the new head of security for the rebels has admitted that he is al-Qaeda. Freeing fellow jihadists from Libyan prisons and shipping looted Libyan weapons to al-Qaeda factions solidify the claim. The very thugs that we are supposedly battling in the war on terrorism, and now not only has Obama installed them as a regime in Libya, but the United Nations has invited them to have a voice in international affairs.

The United States contributes by far more money to the U.N. than any other country. Now al-Qaeda will have a say where that money goes. You can’t make this up. Currently, it is the Republicans that hold the purse strings to the U.N. What will they do? Don’t ask John McCain, he thinks the rebels are just great. Luckily he can’t cut a check to the rebels. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen is the chair of the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee. Her committee could recommend a cut off today. Do you think Boehner and golfing buddy Obama would let that happen?

The next president-should Barry be deposed will have more to deal with than just domestic issues. I know, you’ve heard nothing else from them, but unraveling what Obama has wrought in the Middle East is going to take someone with brains and knowledge of what is actually happening there. Do any of the candidates sound like they fit that bill? Not to me, and maybe that’s why they’re getting a pass on anything but the economy in the debates.

I’m sounding the alarm right now. The rebels unfortunately are exactly who they appear to be and it looks like Obama and his handlers at the U.N. are putting them on a pedestal while our troops fight them in two other wars in different parts of the world. Speak up candidates. If you need an advisor, shoot me an e-mail.

Obama Hands Libya to al-Qaeda

rjjrdq — Mon, 18 Jul 2011 03:51:05 +0000

While the bitching and moaning over how much more money we can spend rages in Washington, the ~~United States~~ the Obama regime has given an entire country to the enemies that we are supposedly at war with.

Despite the fact that the Libyan rebels are soaked in Hezbollah and al-Qaeda thugs, the administration has given them full diplomatic recognition as the governing authority in Libya. In other words, they have given the country over to terrorists. No, Ghadaffi is no saint. Noone in the Middle East and North Africa is, but the monsters that just received Libya as a gift are even worse.

All the Obama regime needed was a promise that these rebels won’t be even worse than Ghadaffi. That was good enough for Hillary Clinton, one of the highest ranking dhimmis in the world.

The rebels’ Transitional National Council “has offered important assurances today, including the promise to pursue a process of democratic reform that is inclusive both geographically and politically,” Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton said in an explanation of the decision to other foreign ministers.

We promise, now give us some money. That money is on the way. This decision opens the door for the rebels to get their hands on $30 billion of Libyan assets. Al-Qaeda bank accounts will be ringing all over the world.

I’ve talked before about how all the rebel fighters may be Hezbollah and al-Qaeda. Yes, all of them.

John Lee Anderson, staff writer for the New Yorker was on the ground in Libya in April, and he said the rebels numbered no more than 1000. He was there and that was his assessment. $30 billion? I questioned then the idea of supporting these goons. It looked to me like all terror, all the time.

NATO Supreme Commander Admiral James Stavridis said that there were flickers of al-Qaida in the rebel ranks. Noman Benotman, al-Qaeda affiliate in Libya (although he claims to have renounced them) went even further, saying that there were 1000 jihadists fighting in Libya, including members of al-Qaeda and Hezbollah. Let’s do the math. Anderson says that there are no more than 1000 rebels in the fight. Benotman says that there are 1000 jihadists there right now. If these numbers are accurate, then the entire rebel force is made up of al-Qaeda and Hezbollah jihadists.

Yet they are now recognized as the legitimate government in Libya.

Keep in mind that out troops are still in Iraq and Afghanistan. Obama is about to bankroll enough bullets to pile up the bodybags. Where is the so-called counterweight GOP? Troops will die because of this, and on a lesser note, Libya will be no better off. In fact, NATO has warned the rebels to stop whacking civilians. Correct, the same thing Ghadaffi was accused of.

You can’t replace crap with more crap and expect a different result. Or, you could say you can’t replace this Islam with that Islam and expect change. Don’t tell that to Obama though. Remember, he ignored Congress in pursuit of this. I think he planned to recognize the rebels al-Qaida all along. After all, he cleared the way for the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, so this should come as no suprise.

535 members of Congress (with a full house), and nobody has anything to say about this? Obama has handed an oil rich nation to the very thugs that would destroy America. Now they will have an endless supply of financing to do just that. Obama the destroyer-with a little help from his friends.

Obama to Hand Afghanistan to Taliban

rjjrdq — Wed, 22 Jun 2011 08:55:43 +0000

While the United States scrambles to put out the flames on the domestic front, the guy with the match, Barack Obama has shown us that he can do damage on an international level as well. In order to divert attention to the possible gutting of his corrupt Justice Department, Obama will give a speech today outlining how he will withdraw a portion of the troops that he sent over to Afghanistan. Yeah, great idea on the surface. You haven’t heard the whole plan.

I said last year that Obama was surrendering to the Taliban. It seemed pretty clear from his language then that any peace agreement would include integrating the Taliban back into the Afghan government. He also wanted Iran to help pull off this surrender. Well, well, well.

Afghan puppet goon Hamid Karzai confirmed what I already knew last year. The Obama regime is talking with the Taliban. With rules of engagement so restrictive for our troops that it would be almost impossible to deal a decisive blow anyway, this sets the stage for the Taliban to take control of Afghanistan once again, under the tooteledge of none other than Iran. The State Department is not denying the Karzai allegations. They have no comment at all on the Iran aspect.

Karzai does though. He met with Iran`s Defence Minister Brigadier General Ahmad Vahidi to talk Islam, infidels, and the complete mockery they have made of our military. Don’t blame it on the military though. Unleash them and this thing would be over. But over to Obama is quite different than it is for us. That’s just fine with Karzai. He will continue to take literally bags of money from the United States and cozy up to Iran at the same time. They give him bags of cash as well.

Karzai expressed gratitude for Iran`s support of Afghanistan during the past 32 years, and called for the continuation of Tehran`s help in reconstructing the country and strengthening security.

So why are our troops there? First it was to destroy al-Qaeda training camps, as if there was no other place on the globe those could pop up. Then it was to get Bin Laden, who allegedly ended up in Pakistan. We still only have Obama’s word on that. Then it was security so that the Taliban would not retake the country. Now we’ve come full circle, and Obama wants to hand the country over the same forces our troops have been fighting for 10 years.

Obama’s scheme will make the sacrifices our troops made worthless. He sent 30,000 troops over himself, and kept thousands more there as target practive for the Taliban. Now, he doesn’t want to just leave, he wants to give the country back to the Taliban as if nothing had happened. Karzai is okay with it. So is the Taliban obviously. And Iran is just ecstatic. Pakistan is probably happy too, at least some elements in their government and security forces.

My plan would have worked. Some well placed F-16′s would have wreaked havoc on the Taliban. Hell, we could have done that forever. Much cheaper than what the last 10 years cost. Instead, Obama will claim a victory for himself by pulling out troops, and a victory for the Taliban who took on the great Satan-and won. With a gigantic helping hand from the White House.

Palestinians to Create Their Own State

rjjrdq — Sat, 21 May 2011 10:36:19 +0000

The Palestinians, like the Israeli’s, rejected the Obama peace scheme immediately, albeit for different reasons. For Israel, it was a recipe for war with indefensible borders, and for the Palestinians, it was a call to unnecessarily concede Israel’s right to exist. No need for any of that. They’ll just create a state out of thin air, and have the United Nations make it happen.

It was a ridiculous plan. Have Israel revert to pre-1967 borders and attempt to negoatiate a peaceful settlement with the Palestinians. The same Palestinians that freely elected HAMAS to represent them. HAMAS has only one function: The destruction of Israel. It’s in their charter, that’s why they were formed, and to this minute, that’s all they want. That is who the Palestinians chose to lead them.

The Palestinians knew that Israel would reject such a plan, so they’re going ahead with a plan of their own, a plan that was in place before Obama’s disastrous foreign policy speech. They plan to petition the United Nations for recognition of a Palestinian state. With the number of anti-Semitic trolls over at the U.N., it is a real possibility. The result would be Palestinians claiming Israeli land as their own, with the backing of the U.N., of which of course, the United States is a member. It’s not likely that Obama would go along with this plan though. After all, his nose was bloodied from two sides yesterday. That’s what you get for sticking it where it doesn’t belong.

Keep in mind that the Palestinians don’t just want Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem, which they had pre-1967, but they want Palestinian refugees to be able to return to other parts of Israel as well. It doesn’t take spatial intelligence to get the picture of what would happen. Israel would be inundated with Muslims who…do not recognize their right to exist. Mahmoud Abbas claims that it is he who would be negotiating and deal with Israel, but I don’t know how he can make that claim with HAMAS controlling Gaza. I would put that in the category of full of crap. HAMAS would never agree to anything where they weren’t part of the negotiations, and as I they said, Israel’s right to exist is not recognized.

All Obama did yesterday was pour $4 gasoline on an already incendiary situation. Nobody is happy with the proposal, or the fact that a third party suggested it. Another third party, in the form of the U.N. is much more likely to be sympathetic with the Palestinian scheme. Obviously, that isn’t going to fly with Israel, and you can predict what the results will be. Palestinians claiming Israeli territory with the backing of the U.N. Obama should have addressed that instead of coming up with his own boneheaded plan. Well, actually he did address that. It was more like a lecture on the world stage. We see how that worked out. Now he has the two sides back in the ring, and neither is listening to him.

Michelle says Barry quit smoking. Maybe he should take up the habit again. He’s going to need something to help him relax after the hornet’s nest he’s stirred up.

Obama Outlines the Destruction of Israel

rjjrdq — Fri, 20 May 2011 09:53:04 +0000

What did I tell you? I said in my last post that Obama was going to deliver a bow to Islam speech, and he did not disappoint. The cotton candy, unicorns and sharia law schtick was expected, but he also dropped a bombshell (pun intended) on Israel. The wonderful transformation in the Middle East that Obama gushes about will very likely lead to the destruction of Israel, and it won’t be pretty. He had a very different tone before he became president though. That’s what happens when you hang with Valerie Jarrett too long.

He started off by taking credit for any gains in Iraq and Afghanistan. He also said the troops were coming home soon. Of course, he’s been saying that for a few years now, but eventually he’ll be right. He also bragged and took credit for the Leon Panetta operation that allegedly ended with a bullet in bin Laden’s head. That was just the warmup though.

Then he turned to self-determination in the Middle East. If anybody can put Islam and self determination in the same sentence, it’s Obama. He started with Muslim Tunisia, comparing them with our founding fathers and Rosa Parks. They were looking for real freedom. Apparently, Obama sees no difference between sharia law and the Constitution.

He went off the rails for a minute to talk about the astonishing progress of places like India, Indonesia and Brazil. It sure was astonishing. With millions of American jobs and millions more in American dollars to develop the infrastructure to accommodate those jobs, it was nothing less than amazing. Of course, it was to the detriment of the American people, but I digress.

Back to the Middle East. He lauded Egypt for their turn towards the Muslim Brotherhood and the slaughter of Coptic Christians in that country. Yes, he did use different words. I just tossed out a few facts there. Looks like Obama hasn’t read the paper recently.

Such tolerance is particularly important when it comes to religion. In Tahrir Square, we heard Egyptians from all walks of life chant, “Muslims, Christians, we are one.”

Obama is loving it though, and although he thinks America should have a diminished role in the world, he wants to play a role nonetheless. Not exactly diminished in my opinion, but Obama has been full of crap before. In fact, he was full of crap just moments later.

The Libya thing came up. While he said that we can’t get every crackpot dictator out of power, the Libyan people were facing imminent massacre. Really? More imminent than the Syrian people right now? More imminent than the Christians in Egypt? More imminent than the people in Iran this very day? To Obama, Libya was worse. Like I said, full of crap.

Here’s where we come in though. He wants to forgive Egyptian debt, and arrange IMF funding for these Middle East countries. Yes, that IMF. Don’t drop the soap. He also wants to recognize the al-Qaeda soaked rebels in Libya. You can’t make this up. But he saved the best for last though.

Obama is imploring Israel to return to the 1967 borders, the borders that were about to be erased by their Muslim neighbors. Israel went to war and kicked the crap out of their hostile neighbors, and the rest is history. Obama wants to go back to the future though. He accuses Israel of occupying Palestinian territory, while acknowledging their loving neighbors want them wiped off the face of the map.

Palestinian leaders will not achieve peace or prosperity if Hamas insists on a path of terror and rejection. And Palestinians will never realize their independence by denying the right of Israel to exist.

But as a pre-condition, Obama wants Israel to concede territory to that bunch. Yes, he did say it. Get these next tidbits.

The full and phased withdrawal of Israeli military forces should be coordinated with the assumption of Palestinian security responsibility in a sovereign, non-militarized state.

The assumption. Yes he did say it. And only moments later…

How can one negotiate with a party that has shown itself unwilling to recognize your right to exist? And in the weeks and months to come, Palestinian leaders will have to provide a credible answer to that question.

You can’t make this up. Hand territory over to the Palestinians and depend on them to provide security from attacks, even though they themselves refuse to acknowledge your right to exist. Yes, that is what he is asking from Israel. I don’t have to tell you what Israel’s response was. Obama is going to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. How would you like to be in on that conversation?

What is it? Incredible naivete’? Muslim roots? Contempt for Israel? All of the above? It remains to be seen if any 2012 contenders call Obama on this ridiculous Middle East scheme. Shame on us all for letting this guy get to the White House.

Obama to Give Another Islam Submission Speech

rjjrdq — Thu, 19 May 2011 09:37:20 +0000

This is being billed as a shift in foreign policy for the Obama regime, but you can look up plenty of articles on this blog and find that it will be just a continuation of Obama’s submission to Islam, and his forcing of America to come along for the ride.

Obama will be giving a speech today, and whatever he says will likely be much the same as he’s been saying since he was installed into the White House. According to previews of the speech, Obama will tout the opportunity for America to…bow to Islam completely, apparently. Jay Carney laid out the oh so titillating details.

According to Carney, less military and more diplomacy will be the order of the day. You are correct, that is viewed as a sign of weakness by Islam. I’m all for less military though. I thought no-fly zones were pretty effective when utilized. If you’re going to be there, and actually have a reason for being there, then it’s a pretty good strategy. I don’t think that’s what Obama has in mind though. I think his plan is to lend legitimacy to the new thugs that have overthrown the old thugs. Overthrown with a little help I’m sure.

That submission I spoke of includes-you guessed it, significant economic aid. Yes, Egypt, who currently boasts roaming bands of Islamic thugs slaughtering Christians wherever they can find them are on the list as recipients. This comes as a goon from the Muslim Brotherhood announced that he will be vying for the presidency in that country. Look up the brotherhood, and the spiderweb of organizations it has spawned. Obama plans on borrowing money from China, and handing it over to them, leaving us with the bill. If China balks, well, they’ll just have to make cuts including using the tax code to make it happen. Either way, we pay for the proliferation of Islam. After all, it’s all in support of democracy movements in those countries. Someone may argue the point, but mob rules isn’t exactly democracy.

Obama isn’t done though. As he’s done since taking office, he plans on forcing America to step back, an apparent attempt to distance himself with the philosophy of the Bush administration. Funny, considering that not only has Obama continued the two wars initiated under Bush, but has started a third for good measure. All in support of democracy though. However, what Obama is calling democracy in the Islamic world is being called a sharia revival in the Middle East. Obama wants to clear the way, and then just lay back.

“The big difference in the DNA of these [Obama] guys and the Bush people is, the Bush people had a U.S.-centric view: that nothing happens in the world if the United States is not at the center of it,” Lynch said. The Obama administration “believes the United States has an important role to play, but is not the driver.”

What Obama-and Bush for that matter does not understand is that democracy is not a word in the Islamic vocabulary. It goes against everything that religion stands for. If Obama thinks he can create a happy, fluffy sharia region of the world, he’s either incredibly naive, or a co-conspirator in the spread of radical Islam. Radical-Islam. Is there any other kind?

2012 is a watershed moment in our nation’s history. Four more years of this and we will have succeeded in empowering the worst elements of the human condition. The scum that is rising to the top in the Middle East are not freedom fighters, or pro-democracy patriots. They are radical thugs, not much different than the radical thugs they deposed in places like Egypt and Tunisia. The new crop though, is emboldened by the fact that the very Satan they want to exterminate will be bankrolling the endeavor. Well, when you have Valerie Jarrett making foreign policy, what else can you expect?

Pakistan Lobbies Washington With Taxpayer Dollars

rjjrdq — Sun, 08 May 2011 03:31:56 +0000

While millions of Americans wonder if they have any representation at all, a plethora of special interest groups dole out millions of dollars to have their voices heard in Washington. Now we find that one special interest group takes taxpayer dollars and then uses those same dollars to paint a happy face on themselves for the benefit of those in Washington that would spoon feed them our money.

We have La Raza, we have the NAACP, we have Obama reaching out to various Muslim interests-heck, we even have black “farmers” in downtown Detroit, all with lobbyists who have their hand in the taxpayer till. You can add Pakistan to that group of loons who don’t deserve a dime.

Shortly after the raid that allegedly netted bin Laden, criticism of Pakistan was fast and furious. How could they not know he was right under their noses? Many in Washington think they did know, and want to reassess aid to Pakistan, which right now stands at $2 billion a year. Pakistan is now in damage control, and have unleashed their personal lobbyists, Locke Lord Strategies to try and sway negative opinion of them.

Locke Lord Strategies receives $75,000 a month from ~~Pakistan~~ taxpayers, and they are on Capital Hill as we speak trying to paint their client in a better light.

Since bin Laden’s death, Siegel says he has been on Capitol Hill every day to promote Pakistan’s position on the bin Laden killing, talking to congressmen, senators and their aides.

Every politician in Washington knows these guys are lobbyists. That means they know they’re full of crap. How could they conceivably be swayed by anything this firm says? They don’t have the intelligence info that the politicians have, do they? Or do they? What could this firm possibly say that would change the minds over funding Pakistan? In an ideal world, it shouldn’t matter. Lobbyists-in theory shouldn’t be able to sway our elected representatives. After all, they are supposed to be representing us, not the likes of Pakistan. Of course, this isn’t an ideal world, and apparently these guys do have some sway or Pakistan wouldn’t be shelling out the kind of money they are.

Keep in mind that it was Pakistan that gave enough info to North Korea for them to come up with nukes. They’ve been less than cooperative on many occasions in the search, not only for bin Laden, but Taliban elements that have taken safe refuge in Pakistan.

It will be interesting who steps up and starts to defend Pakistan. Anybody that does is likely under the spell of Locke Lord Strategies. Under the spell or under the checkbook. You decide.

U.N. Wants Details on Navy SEAL Operation

rjjrdq — Thu, 05 May 2011 08:47:02 +0000

If Obama gives up any information to this pack of cretins, then he should be put on trial for treason in a time of war. What is the penalty for that anyway? Now, Ileana, now. You have the checkbook. Defund these clowns once and for all.

Knowing what a pushover Barack Obama is for the one world government dream, the United Nations is calling on the United States to provide details on the raid that allegedly led to the death of Osama bin Laden. Navi Pillay, U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights made the request, while admonishing the U.S.-and anyone else for that matter, that international law must be observed at all times. How about we have SEAL Team Six come over and explain international law to you Navi?

Keep in mind that the U.N. Human Rights Council boasts such members as China, Cuba, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan. Yes, that Pakistan. They’ve already torn into the U.S. for our treatment of migrants. Apparently, we don’t coddle illegal aliens enough. You can’t make this up. They also have a problem with the U.S. not providing enough affordable housing for those illegal aliens. Yes, human rights violations. Haven’t heard their take on Cuba and China. I won’t be holding my breath either.

The United States doesn’t owe the United Nations-or anyone else for that matter, any explanation about anything. Unfortunately, Barack Obama doesn’t share that philosophy. In fact, it was the Obama regime that submitted Arizona’s SB 1070 law for U.N. consumption. While members of their own council routinely “disappear” its citizens, mutilate women as a matter of religious practice, and show gross intolerance to any other kinds of belief systems, the U.N. focuses on the atrocities on the one country that keeps it afloat. With Barack Obama at the helm, they feel they can get away with it. The good news is that the Republicans now hold the purse strings for funding this ridiculous behemoth. The bad news is that the Republicans hold the purse strings, and thus far, have kept the gravy train rolling. If the CR battle was any indicator, that gravy train will keep on rolling, and clowns like Navi Pillay can continue to demand national security information from the United States.

If Barack Obama wants to hand over sensitive information to the U.N., it’s likely that we’ll never know about it. Knowing Obama’s history and his affinity for the United Nations, it’s quite likely he’ll hand over something. What that something is remains to be seen-or not. Handing over details of a SEAL operation is not something you hand over to the world. Does Obama get that? Let’s hope that even he understands that some things are better kept in house. Even a community organizing punk from Chicago should be able to digest that.
