Jesse Jackson denies gay worker’s harassment, discrimination claims

Chicago Sun-Times:  Jesse Jackson denies gay worker’s harassment, discrimination claims
"Bennett claims he worked for PUSH starting in July 2007, and was both an organizer and Jackson’s travel assistant. In his complaint, Bennett — who also goes by the name “Aruba Tommy” — said he experienced discrimination almost immediately, including from a woman at PUSH who refused to work for him because of his sexual orientation, according to the complaint.
"Aruba" Tommy Bennett
"Bennett also claims he was forced to escort women for Jackson into hotel rooms — and later clean up the rooms.
"Bennett claims he received a letter in December 2009, in which he was told he was being laid off due to a “lack of funding.” But Bennett alleges someone else was then hired to replace him."

My Fox Chicago has this.

The Edge : Jesse Jackson Hit with Gay Harassment Complaint

Krauthammer: Who lost Iraq?

Charles Krauthammer  "Barack Obama was a principled opponent of the Iraq war from its beginning. But when he became president in January 2009, he was handed a war that was won. The surge had succeeded. Al-Qaeda in Iraq had been routed, driven to humiliating defeat by an Anbar Awakening of Sunnis fighting side-by-side with the infidel Americans. Even more remarkably, the Shiite militias had been taken down, with U.S. backing, by the forces of Shiite Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki. They crushed the Sadr militias from Basra to Sadr City.
"Al-Qaeda decimated. A Shiite prime minister taking a decisively nationalist line. Iraqi Sunnis ready to integrate into a new national government. U.S. casualties at their lowest ebb in the entire war. Elections approaching. Obama was left with but a single task: Negotiate a new status-of-forces agreement (SOFA) to reinforce these gains and create a strategic partnership with the Arab world’s only democracy.
"He blew it."....
....
"He did not, failing at precisely what this administration so flatters itself for doing so well: diplomacy. After years of allegedly clumsy brutish force, Obama was to usher in an era of not hard power, not soft power, but smart power .
"Which turns out in Iraq to be . . . no power. Years from now, we will be asking not “Who lost Iraq?” — that already is clear — but “Why?” "

Sweet: Iran Sets Up Website Attacking Obama, Supporting #OWS

JAWA Report  "It reads like your typical radical Leftwist website: America is bad, America is evil, Chomsky is awesome, and the Jews control everything."

Radio Free Europe:  Iran's Basij Launches Website To Cover Occupy Wall Street Movement
"Iranian officials also appeared to be sympathetic to London rioters whose rights they said were being violated by the British police forces who confronted them. Officials had then expressed readiness to send a delegation to Britain to investigate "human rights abuses." "  Stupid leftists and their evil bedfellows.

Internet Haganah has this.  Is that the form of Michael Moore we see on the Iranian home page?



"And then there is the matter of the site being hosted on a server in Atlanta. Best as I can tell the Basij have contracted with a Persian outfit, who in turn have space on server or servers operted by some Qataris, whose servers are actually in the USA. They all hate us and want us to drop dead, but they want to avail themselves of our networks, servers, and services all the same. It's no wonder they like #ows."

Bozell Contrasts Media 'Avalanche' Over Anonymous Cain Allegations with Paltry Coverage of Clinton Sexual Harassment

Newsbusters  "NewsBusters publisher Brent Bozell noted on last night's Hannity, contrasting the "avalanche" of Cain coverage with the minimal coverage the networks gave to Paula Jones, Kathleen Willey, and Juanita Broaddrick's allegations of sexual harassment and, in the latter case, rape."
....
"Likewise, Kathleen Willey's allegation of Clinton groping her got just three network stories when the news broke. Broaddrick's serious allegation of rape also got just three network stories, Bozell reminded Hannity viewers. "

Remember when the Labor Union's rank and file loved America? Where are they now?

Union Chief: 'We Need More Militancy ... Blocking Bridges, Occupying Banks'  "United Steelworkers international president Leo Gerard has a message to the flea party whiny-whiners still camping out instead of sleeping in their parents' basements -- playtime is over.
"Just in case the Occupy movement fails -- in other words, when it fails -- Gerard is urging union members to fill that gaping void with "more militancy." "

In the May, 2011 Tunnel Wall, we posted this letter: International Association of Machinists issues marching orders to its membership  Ignore the fact that the word "roll" on page 2 should have been "role". Instead pay particular attention to page 2, item 2:


Neal Boortz: Unions usurped the Occupy movement  "Hate to break it to you, Mr. goonion big shot Leo Gerard, but maybe you better do your research before you go spouting falsehoods. House Republicans have passed 15 jobs bills that remain stuck in the Senate. Oops.
"And one more thing to keep your eye on with Obama’s Children. There is a new tactic to be aware of: doxing." ....More on that here .

Photo of the Day: Obama (Literally) Embraces Anti-Israel, Pro-Iran Islamist on the World Stage

Big Peace  "That’s Islamist Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan hugging it out with the President of the United States today at the G-20 summit in France." Obama shakes hands with America's friends, hugs Iran's ally.
"Our European allies, by contrast, received simple handshakes.
"Never mind the apparent breach of protocol–what does this demonstrate about Barack Obama’s worldview?
"At least he didn’t bow."

Islam Today: Turkey, Trying to Isolate Israel, Gets Cordial Treatment From Obama Administration   "In the CNN Turk interview, Davutoglu said it was too late for U.S. mediation between Turkey and Israel, and that Turkey would not relent on its insistence for an Israeli apology over the flotilla incident."

Daniel Pipes: Obama Hugs Erdoğan"Hillary Clinton's high-five in June with her Turkish counterpart, Ahmet Davutoğlu, prompted me to write that she "should be ashamed of herself, horsing around like this with the representative of a hostile state."
"What to say in November with Barack Obama hugging his counterpart, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan?"

Atlas Shrugs expresses contempt for the Candidate of the US: Isn't this whole scene pretty standard for President Obama? The Europeans get a handshake and the Islamist Turkish prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan gets a hug.  "Isn't this whole scene pretty standard for President Obama? The Europeans get a handshake and the Islamist Turkish prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan gets a hug. And all the president seems to have in mind is campaign politics and his reelection effort."
Turkey has abandoned her friendship with Israel and has now declared hostility. This is just fine with Obama.
Does this man have a hatred for Israel, or just a fear of the Muslim world that makes him be a toady for them? I use the word "toady" because Obama reminds me of the little toady in "A Christmas Story" who was at the bidding of the big bully feared by all neighborhood kids.
This president is a foreign policy nincompoop and a threat to every facet of American interests, home and abroad.  This is who you get when America elects for its president the choice of rock stars and celebrities -people for whom Rev. Wright, Louis Farrakhan and domestic terrorists are preferable to any conservative.
If our nation truly is a right-of-center country, why is there not more outrage at this administration?

It would be wise to remember that in all the scope of the Bible from Genesis through the book of Revelation, Israel is the central nation in God's plan for world history and the fate of nations hinges on their relations with this small country. The very existence of Israel in their original land is testimony that God shapes history to keep promises He makes. TD
