Obama exhorts businesses to hire

Today's speech: Obama says Palestine must be based in 1967 borders (Updated)

Right wing MKs: Obama is the new Arafat  "Barack Hussein Obama adopted the staged plan for Israel's destruction of Yasser Arafat, and he is trying to force it on our prime minister," said Likud MK Danny Danon. "All that was new in the speech was that he called for Israel to return to 1967 borders without solving the crisis. Netanyahu has only one option: To tell Obama forget about it."  Jerusalem Post

From Drudge
Yahoo News  "In a speech outlining U.S. policy in the Middle East and North Africa, Obama on Thursday sided with the Palestinians' opening position a day ahead of a visit to Washington by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Netanyahu is vehemently opposed to referring to the 1967 borders."

Jewish Donors Warn Obama on Israel  "The White House and Israeli officials disputed that characterization. But the incident left a lasting impression. "It was a snub," said former New York Mayor Ed Koch, who campaigned for Mr. Obama in 2008. "My feeling was that the president was hostile to Israel." "

Caroline Glick from May 13; Obama's newest ambush  "It is hard to believe, but it appears that in the wake of the Palestinian unity deal that brings Hamas, the genocidal, al-Qaida-aligned, local franchise of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood, into a partnership with Fatah, US President Barack Obama has decided to open a new round of pressure on Israel to give away its land and national rights to the Palestinians."

From Jihad Watch  "Instead, in country after country pro-Sharia Islamic supremacists seem to be gaining the upper hand, just as I predicted.
"Obama did not speak about that at all.
"More on this speech asap."

"It’s over, the Israelis are going to be livid.
"One last update, Fox News is calling Obama’s demands Israel withdraw to the 1967 borders a “bombshell.”" Weasel Zippers

 Do Palestinian Refugees Have a Right to Return to Israel?   No two-state solution for Israel is possible without Palestinians having a right to return to their former homes. This would mean the end of Israel. Since Obama's speech did not mention Right of Return, his proposals are a non-starter and likely just for home comsumption and reelection. As Rush Limbaugh said, our foreign policy is based on Obama's reelection hopes. The man as a disaster for our nation, for Israel and for the Middle East; he is contemptible but a is prototype of what the Democrat Party has become.

NLRB Comes to Big Labor’s Defense


Heritage  "It’s hard to imagine Uncle Sam telling Walt Disney where to make movies or McDonald’s how many hamburgers to make, but if you take a look at the case of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) versus Boeing, you’ll see that the federal government is trying to do just that: dictate where and how private industry may do business. And it’s doing so to bolster one of President Barack Obama’s favorite special interests—labor unions."

A watchdog bites  "THE factory squats on 610,000 square feet of land in North Charleston, South Carolina, and represents an investment of over $1 billion. It is scheduled to begin producing aeroplanes in July—Boeing’s 787 Dreamliners, 835 of which have already been ordered for around $162 billion. It will employ thousands of workers: good news in a state where unemployment hovers around 10%. Unless, that is, the federal government shuts it down."

NLRB vs. Boeing – Tyranny vs. Freedom  "One of the shameful hallmarks of a dictatorship is the restriction of movement — telling citizens or groups they cannot travel or relocate freely.
"We are now witnessing a shocking example of that dictatorial practice at the hands of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), which is insisting that a major U.S. employer may not move some of its operations from one state to another because to do so might somehow violate workers’ rights."  Michael Reagan.

Does Anyone in the GOP Want to Beat Obama?

Big Government   "Doesn’t anyone want to beat Obama? Who’s left? Tim Pawlenty and Mitch Daniels? Two boring middle-aged white guys with the charisma of Al Gore? That’s the best the GOP has? Watching wet paint dry is more exciting, than watching Pawlenty or Daniels deliver a speech. Sorry, boys, but wet paint drying isn’t going to defeat Obama. Not if he has his teleprompter working properly.
"Yes others could yet become the darkhorse for the GOP nomination- Michele Bachmann, Herman Cain, Gary Johnson, perhaps even Sarah Palin.
"But someone in the GOP had better hope that Chris Christie is having a change of heart."
I doubt that many who love Gov Christie know what all his policies would be or if we would like his way of governing.  I suggest what we love about Chris Christie is his way of standing up to those who challenge him; we  relish the vision of him confronting the likes of David Gregory and other NBC types who used to verbally bully President Bush. Other candidates may be preferable for us, but we want a candidate who is as angry as we are and who doesn't speak in focus-group approved, politically-correct platitudes.
Give us a candidate who has that "fire-in-the-belly anger at what liberals are doing and plan to do to this nation.

Focus Is on Obama as Tensions Soar Across Mideast



New York Times   "Mr. Obama, who is set to address Americans — and, more significantly, Muslims around the world — from the State Department on Thursday morning, may yet have something surprising up his sleeve. One administration official said that there remained debate about whether Mr. Obama would formally endorse Israel’s pre-1967 borders as the starting point for negotiations over a Palestinian state, a move that would send an oratorical signal that the United States expected Israel to make concessions.

Boy Scouts and the ACLU: A War of Worldviews

Are We Facing an Iranian Missile Crisis? The Dereliction of our Media

 Ron Radosh   "The Iranian-Venezuelan deal evidently also includes housing of Hezbollah cells and Quds forces in the new facilities, ready to expand their activity in Latin American in conjunction with drug cartels in the region, including those causing so much trouble now in Mexico. As Kahili puts it so well:"
The radicals ruling Iran are emboldened by the confusion of the Obama administration in confronting Iran’s nuclear program. The Iranian regime feels that America has exhausted all of its options with is negotiation and sanctions approach and therefore no longer poses a serious threat to Iran’s nuclear drive.
....
"Clearly, the time for the United States to make known its firm opposition to Iranian missiles in Venezuela is now, not a few years hence when they are already operational. But first, our country must be informed that Iran and Venezuela have such plans in mind. That means all our news outlets must join Die Welt in reports of their own."

Opinion: Iran is Building a Secret Missile Installation in Venezuela  "Venezuela is said to have significant reserves, something that Iran is desperately in need of for the continuation of their nuclear bomb project. Other activities include housing of the Quds forces, along with Hezbollah cells in these facilities, so they can expand their activities throughout Latin America and form collaborations with drug cartels in Mexico and then enter America."  It appears we have become the Britain of the 1930's.

"Pam Baragona is the sister of Rocky Baragona, and her family has honored him by investigating Kuwait & Gulf Link Transport (KGL) to the hilt — “walking the halls of Congress for seven years” to seek accountability. What they recently uncovered was that KGL, fattened beyond imagination by U.S. taxpayers, was working with a militant regime that is hardcore anti-American."

Ann Coulter: To Liberals, Every Woman Looks Like a Hotel Maid

Townhall  "Karl Marx kept a female slave from the time she was 8 years old, eventually using her not only as a servant but as his mistress, never acknowledging his child with her or paying her at all. She waited on him hand and foot while he explained to the world that profit is the stolen surplus value of the laborer. Like so many liberal icons, Marx seldom bathed and left his wife and children in poverty.
"As Schlafly says, no wonder liberal women think men are pigs: Their men are pigs."

Israel; Liberal Jews embrace reincarnation: The 'peace process' never dies

Israel Matzav "Be it the murder of infants in their bed, or Abbas’s fabrication of history in the New York Times on Tuesday, every Arab assault on Israel is just another reason both sides need to try harder to reach an “agreement.” Goldberg adheres closely to this liberal protocol. He begins on a promising note by devoting about the first 65% of his essay gently exposing the “contradictions” in Abbas’s vicious lie. But that formality is just a tease in the run-up to the standard-issue liberal sales pitch, which in Goldberg’s iteration goes something like this:"...

When [Palestinian Arabs] Say They Want A Right Of Return, This Is What They Mean

Remembering the First Blow Against al Qaeda

Karl Rove  "The passengers on Flight 93 were not trained in the art of war like the skilled operators of SEAL Team 6. The uniforms of the pilots and attendants were not like those of the chopper crews who dropped from the dark sky above Abbottabad. But in a powerful way, the people on Flight 93 too were warriors.
"At 9:58 a.m. on Sept. 11, 2001, Todd Beamer asked his fellow passengers and crew, "Are you guys ready? Okay. Let's roll!" They then stormed the cockpit."...

Herman Cain Talks About His Growing Popularity, Race

Herman Cain photo Nealz Nuze   "Herman Cain says, “The fact that I grew up in the segregated South and realize that we have gotten passed that is why I don’t harbor any anger toward this country, because one of the greatest things about America, even from its founding, is its ability to change.” He goes on to say, “People who want to focus on what was wrong with America are the ones who aren’t going to go very far in America.”"

"Raising Cain" may be just what the lethargic, lacklustre GOP presidential field needs to get more motivated.  "But Cain, unlike Trump, also knows the language of contemporary conservatism – taxes, the deficit, and what he compellingly calls "the threat to the American Dream" from three great "ations" – "regulation", "legislation" and, of course, "taxation". And like Tea Party movement darling and rising GOP star Marco Rubio, Cain also likes to extol America's presumed "exceptionalism", its privileged place in world history as a beacon of hope, freedom and prosperity."

Top Ten Reasons to Support Herman Cain for President  " I mean that it would be the kind of doggone honest and refreshing campaign the country needs.  It would be the opposite of the stale McCain run.  Cain does not speak Washington drivel, and he's not afraid to take a strong position."

Which is the racist party now?  "Leftist Blogger Dismisses Black Conservative, CPAC Speaker Herman Cain As 'Minstrel'"
"The far-left's racially-tinged paranoia and hatred of black conservatives rears its ugly head from time to time, often without the notice let alone disapproval of the liberal mainstream media.
"Herman Cain is just the latest target."
As you know, I find ...black conservatives fascinating not because of what they believe, but rather because of how they entertain and perform for their White Conservative masters.  Chauncey DeVega

You sure you really like Ron Paul?

iOwnTheWorld.com  "Asked if he would have authorized the raid that took out bin Laden."
I don’t think it was necessary, no. It absolutely was not necessary… I think respect for the rule of law and world law and international law. What if he’d been in a hotel in London? We wanted to keep it secret, so would we have sent the airplane, you know the helicopters into London, because they were afraid the information would get out?
