Oh, the stupidity out there! Cornell Belcher: Cain's "Brainwashed" Remark Was "Racist, Bigoted"

truthgun.com

RealClearPolitics  "Democratic strategist Cornell Belcher says there is a media "double-standard" over Herman Cain saying blacks have been "brainwashed." Belcher calls Mr. Cain a bigot and a racist and says this incident is a "teachable moment." "  Just when you thought every race card imaginable had been played, he comes up with this one.

Here's everything you could want to read on this. Maybe more.

Krauthammer: Land without peace: Why Abbas went to the U.N.

Charles Krauthammer  "...Abbas responded by boycotting the talks for nine months, showing up in the 10th, then walking out when the freeze expired. Last week he reiterated that he will continue to boycott peace talks unless Israel gives up — in advance — claim to any territory beyond the 1967 lines. Meaning, for example, that the Jewish Quarter in Jerusalem is Palestinian territory. This is not just absurd. It violates every prior peace agreement. They all stipulate that such demands are to be the subject of negotiations, not their precondition."

"Abbas unwaveringly insists on the so-called "right of return", which would demographically destroy Israel by swamping it with millions of Arabs, thereby turning the world’s only Jewish state into the world’s 23rd Arab state. And he has repeatedly declared, as recently as last week in New York: “We shall not recognize a Jewish state.” "

Iranian Pastor Sentenced to Death; To Die Today: Nadarkhani Refuses to Convert

Voice of the Martyrs

International Business Times  "Before his last hearing Wednesday, Nadarkhani had been given three previous chances to repent, and all three times he has refused. After his final refusal Wednesday, no verdict has been announced, but many expect that he could be put to death as soon as Friday.
"The case has slowly garnered international attention, and there are a number of Christian rights groups advocating for his release."

Iranian Christians International

C.S. Lewis : "You never know how much you really believe anything
until its truth or falsehood becomes a matter of life and death to you." "At the recent hearings, the court in Rasht ruled that Pastor Youcef was not a practicing Muslim before becoming a Christian but that he remains guilty of apostasy because of his Muslim ancestry."

Apostasy in Islam
In the Islamist's view, everyone is born a Muslim and leaves it later. Ergo, one does not "convert" to Islam; one "reverts" to Islam.

Ron Paul: US-born al-Qaida cleric 'assassinated'

Anwar al-Awlaki

Associated Press  "Paul, a Texas congressman known for libertarian views, says the killing of Anwar al-Awlaki on Yemeni soil amounts to an "assassination." Paul warned the American people not to casually accept such violence against U.S. citizens, even those with strong ties to terrorism."

In a related story, the ACLU condemned the union forces of President Lincoln, Republican, for opening fire on the forces of General Pickett at Gettysburg. They should have waited for them to approach Union positions, arrested them and given them due process, which these American citizens were denied.


American Thinker: Al-Alwaki meets death from above   "I have no sympathy at all for Alwaki, and am glad the man is dead. But knowing that our president can order an American killed with no apparent checks and balances ought to give us all pause. We need to create a better legal framework for operations, one which respects our constitutional order, appropriate to the era of Islamic terror."

Did American forces kill any of these guys: Columnist recounts tale of German-Americans fighting for Nazis ?

From April, 2010:  Why Is It Legal to Kill Anwar al-Awlaki? "When I asked Karen Greenberg of NYU’s Center on Law and Security whether al-Awlaki could be lawfully assassinated last month, she scoffed, “They can’t do this with al-Awlaki. He is an American citizen, born in New Mexico. They can’t take away his citizenship.”  Soooo, we should have arrested him how?

Freedom of religion and of expression under attack by liberals

 Groups press Obama on religious hiring
 

The Moral Liberal  "The letter claims the executive order allows faith-based groups to discriminate against potential employees on the basis of religion and urges the administration to replace the policy with one that could force religious organizations contracting with the government to disregard their convictions when hiring."....

"As Jennifer Marshall and Joseph Loconte pointed out in a Heritage Foundation paper:

“There is no more vital protection for organizations with a religiously-rooted approach to social assistance than the freedom to hire according to their convictions. The leadership and staff of an organization determine its destiny. They alone will carry out its mission, uphold its priorities, and embody its deepest values. If the First Amendment guarantee of religious liberty does not protect the employment decisions of faith-based organizations - their right to free association - then it has become a meaningless abstraction.”



Levant

 Religious Leaders to the President: Don't Curtail Our Religious Hiring Freedom
"Activists are again pressing the Obama administration to curtail religious hiring by religious organizations that receive government funding."
 So far it doesn't affect the average church, but give 'em time. Liberals never sleep and they must always seek remedies for their guilt-ridden lives.
pdf of the letter here.

Religious Freedom in Canada:   Chris Kempling delivered this address on March 4, 2005 in New York City to a United Nations Commission on Human Rights Delegate Briefing. He received a standing ovation.

If Christians say publicly that they disapprove of homosexual behaviour because the Bible declares it to be immoral, then that is "promoting hatred". If they quote medical statistics about the HIV infection rates of homosexual men, that is "promoting hatred". If they object to their children being indoctrinated in kindergarten class with information about homosexuality, they are hateful people.

Suppression of free speech is further advanced in Canada. Watch Canada to see where America is headed under liberalism. Are we headed for Canadian-style star chambers?  See examples of star chambers in action:

Levant commented on his "favorable" result: (Emphasis fervently added)

His decision is not that I have freedom of speech. His decision is that I have his approval. I'm not interested in his approval. The only test of free speech is if I can write what he disapproves of with impunity.

Our White House Bully Problem

Michelle Malkin  "Team Obama continues to pressure and intimidate its critics."

...."A WFAA-TV Texas reporter was dressed down by the president for having the audacity to interrupt.
"The Boston Herald was spanked by the White House for running a front-page op-ed by GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney.
"The White House denied any pressure in all those cases, too.
"Before his campaign-finance-grubbing swing ended, Obama met the pop singer Lady Gaga. She lobbied him to combat bullying across America. It was a little like Red Riding Hood lobbying the Big Bad Wolf to promote vegetarianism."

• SEIU members gang up on black TEA Party protester (video below)

"It got very personal when two union supporters ganged up on the conservative, one of them calling him “uneducated” and another asking him if he has any children “that he claims”:

According to RedWhiteBlueNews.com, the woman in red was later asked what she meant by her comments about the man’s children. “She said the black conservative was such a ‘free spirit’ that she assumed he would possibly not own up to the responsibility of being a father,” the site says.
Just so you know, the man admitted on camera he was gay.
SEIU’s involvement in the protest is supported by a schedule on the union’s website that names Denver, CO as a rally site."

Obama lectures Europe about their debt...er, wait!...WHAT?

Spiegel Online : Obama's Euro-Crisis Lecture Is 'Pitiful and Sad'  "US President Obama has given the Europeans a harsh lecture on the dangers of their ongoing debt crisis. Offended by the unsolicited advice, Europeans have suggested the US get its own house in order first. Obama's remarks were "arrogant" and "absurd," German commentators say on Wednesday."

UK Mail:   Obama lectures Europe: Do as I say, not as I do   "On Monday, President Obama acted like a sheltered university economics professor and smugly lectured the leaders of Europe that they were not taking quick enough action to bail out Greece."

Jihad Deniers

Noisy Room  "The high priests who run the Church of Man Made Global Warming call anyone who doesn’t become disciples of the environmental whacko movement, “Deniers;” an attempt to discredit folks who don’t agree with a junk science whose main purpose has nothing to do with saving Mother Earth and everything to do with wealth redistribution. Scientists who don’t sign on to this massive hoax are, after all, “denied” federal grant money or “denied” publication in professional circles; hence the term “deniers” seems quite appropriate.

"Speaking of deniers…"

Democratic Gov. Bev Perdue's Joe Biden Moment

First it was a joke. Then it was hyperbole. Now it's sarcasm
""The next time they tell you how stupid Sarah Palin is or Michele Bachmann, just think back to this day and North Carolina Governor Beverly Perdue," said Limbaugh, the conservative talk show host." (Emphasis in the original)

N.C. Gov. Beverly Perdue: Let's 'Suspend' Elections to Fix America

"I think we ought to suspend, perhaps, elections for Congress for two years and just tell them we won't hold it against them, whatever decisions they make, to just let them help this country recover. I really hope that someone can agree with me on that," Perdue said. "You want people who don't worry about the next election."

What was Bev Perdue thinking?

Bernie Goldberg: Trust in Media Low Due to Love Affair With Obama

Newsbusters  "With regard to the Christmas Day front page Post article, Goldberg neglected something even more indicative of media bias that day.

"As NewsBusters reported at the time, not only was that puff piece on the front page of the Post, the revelation about the Obama transition team's report on contacts with former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich was placed on page A3.

"Shameful."

Here are a few Obama magazine covers (right)

From MSNBC:  Obama magazine covers fly off newsstands

"...Barack Obama is the new golden child in the celebrity weekly world.

"Just hours after the elections, two of the most successful brands — People and Us Weekly — stocked newsstands with issues that featured the president-elect on the cover, while the competition went with more ordinary celebrity fare. According to early sales figures, People and Us made the right call."

 From Nov, 2008

Many, many more Obama magazine covers from

Iranian Pastor Faces Execution for Refusing to Recant Christian Faith

Legal Insurrection Quoting Fox News:

An Iranian pastor who has refused to renounce his Christian faith faces execution as early as Wednesday after his sentence was upheld by an Iranian court.
"Pastor Youcef Nadarkhani, who maintains he has never been a Muslim as an adult, has Islamic ancestry and therefore must recant his faith in Jesus Christ, the 11th branch of Iran’s Gilan Provincial Court ruled. Iran’s Supreme Court had ordered the trial court to determine whether Nadarkhani had been a Muslim prior to converting to Christianity.

And from the comments to this post:

So sad for this Pastor and his family. Why aren’t those Muslims who tell us Islam is a tolerant religion, and say they are moderates, standing up and condemning this? Have I missed the outcry of support for this Pastor from the US Muslim community?

Related: Iran: Government Takes Child  "Security officers reportedly took the child as a way to pressure the Christian family and other Christian converts. Mohabat News reports that the security agents threatened the couple, saying, “If you want your child back, you must file a complaint against your fellow Christians in prison.” "
