Coulter: DYING FOR A CIGARETTE IN NEW YORK

 

 http://comicallyincorrect.com/2014/12/23/de-blasio/

Ann Coulter... "Yes, Bill de Blasio worries at night that, in a city where more than 90 percent of murders are committed by young black men, Dante will be shot by a cop. And he said this knowing full well that the police sergeant overseeing Garner's arrest was a black female officer.

" 'That's the reality."

"The "reality" is that hundreds of blacks are killed in New York City every year by other blacks. Last year, only six black men -- all brandishing guns or knives -- were shot and killed by cops.

" '(People have) said black lives matter. And they said it because it had to be said. ... Our history sadly requires us to say that black lives matter. ... We are dealing with centuries of racism that have brought us to this day. That is how profound the crisis is."

"Somebody should tell black gang members that black lives matter.

"As I have repeatedly tweeted, the correct chant for Garner's case is: Hey, de Blasio! Black lives matter more than your $%^&* tax money! What "brought us to this day" is not a "history" of racism; it's the left's maniacal pursuit of taxes -- the precise reason cops were arresting Eric Garner. He was selling untaxed cigarettes. He resisted arrest and, in the tussle, had a fatal heart attack.

"Cops don't want to enforce these nonsense revenue-generating laws, but that's their job. " ...

What to take from Ann's column:

..."Quite shrewdly, New York City cops have responded to de Blasio's attack on them by overlooking violations of these revenue-generating laws. Guess who's hysterical about the tax-collection slowdown? Liberals would sooner have the police ignore murder laws than forget to hand out parking tickets. " ... 

Alan Caruba: Islam Kills Again

Warning Signs

... "The past year had dramatic and tragic slaughters by the Islamic State (ISIS) in the Syrian-Iraqi area they control, the murder of more than 140 school children in Pakistan by the Taliban, and the kidnapping of 276 girls by Boko Haram in Nigeria. These acts represent a strict interpretation of Shia law based on the Koran.

"That is why an address by Egyptian President, Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, on New Year’s Day to clerics at Al-Azhar and the Awqaf Ministry is particularly significant. As reported by Raymond Ibrahim of the Middle East Forum, Sisi “a vocal supporter for a renewed vision of Islam, made what must be his most forceful and impassioned plea to date.”

"His speech was a warning that “the corpus of (Islamic) texts and ideas that we have made sacred over the years” are “antagonizing the entire world.' ”

Referring to the 1.6 billion Muslims, Sisi said it is not possible that they “should want to kill the rest of the world’s inhabitants—that is 7 billion—so that they themselves may live.” Islam, said Sisi “is being torn, it is being destroyed, it is being lost—and it is being lost by our own hands.”

Words Not Used By Obama To Condemn Paris Terror Attack: “Islam,” “Muslim,” “Jihad”...in his statement here:

Statement by the President on the Attack in France 

 "I strongly condemn the horrific shooting at the offices of Charlie Hebdo magazine in Paris that has reportedly killed 12 people. Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims of this terrorist attack and the people of France at this difficult time. France is America’s oldest ally, and has stood shoulder to shoulder with the United States in the fight against terrorists who threaten our shared security and the world. Time and again, the French people have stood up for the universal values that generations of our people have defended. France, and the great city of Paris where this outrageous attack took place, offer the world a timeless example that will endure well beyond the hateful vision of these killers. We are in touch with French officials and I have directed my Administration to provide any assistance needed to help bring these terrorists to justice.

Gunmen storm Paris satirical newspaper, killing at least 12

FLASHBACK: Obama: “The Future Must Not Belong To Those Who Slander The Prophet Of Islam”

 
BareNakedIslam

WaPo  "PARIS — Masked gunmen opened fire Wednesday in the offices of a French satirical newspaper known for provocative content on Islam, killing at least 12 people and then escaping after carrying out the country’s bloodiest terrorist attack in decades.

"France immediately was put on its highest security alert amid a massive manhunt for the three suspected assailants who stormed the newspaper Charlie Hebdo — where the Arabic cry of “Allahu Akbar” could be heard amid the gunfire, according to video posted by France’s state-run broadcaster.

"Across Paris, meanwhile, security was stepped up at media outlets, transportation hubs and other key sites. The attack also is likely to raise calls for tougher crackdowns on suspected extremists." ...


Shocking video of Charlie Hebdo attack (Before it gets pulled off)
"You can hear cries of “Allahu Akbar” in video now available online of what appears to be the sophisticated attack on Charlie Hebdo. If the Obama administration applies the same criteria it used on the Fort Hood attack, it will advise the French government to call this “workplace violence.”

"The Weekly Standard has provided access to the videos, embedded below:




 White House couldn’t be sure at first if Paris bloodshed was a ‘terrorist attack’
... "By failing to call this a terrorist attack immediately, the White House was displaying cowardice. They demonstrated the fear that they might offend with the use of the term “terrorism.” It is the same impulse that leads others to dig deep within themselves to seek out a kernel of sympathy for militant Islamists who appeal to violence in order to seek satisfaction for their hurt feelings. Remorselessness, not sympathy, is what is demanded in this moment. Clearly, the White House was not prepared to meet posterity’s expectations this morning."

How Charlie Hebdo Became A Top Terrorist Target   "In February 2006 French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo published a series of 12 cartoons depicting the Prophet Muhammad which had been featured in the Nordic daily Jyllands-Posten the previous year. The Danish publication triggered anti-Danish protests across the Muslim world. It was the start of the story that would ultimately lead to the magazine becoming a prime terrorist target."
...
"Today, the Charlie Hebdo story took a gruesome turn as two gunmen burst into its offices and shot dead at least 12 people. They shouted "we have avenged the prophet!" according to Sky News. "   M

When asked about a lack of transparency in the prisoner exchange process, Psaki said, “Well, we know who’s on there. And the Cuban government knows who’s on there.”

The 'equality' racket hurts America

 

Thomas Sowell identifies 'formula for never-ending strife that can tear a whole society apart'

"Some time ago, burglars in England scrawled a message on the wall of a home they had looted: “RICH BASTARDS.”

"Those two words captured the spirit of the politicized vision of equality – that it was a grievance when someone was better off than themselves.

"That, of course, is not the only meaning of equality, but it is the predominant political meaning in practice, where economic “disparities” and “gaps” are automatically treated as “inequities.” If one racial or ethnic group has a lower income than another, that is automatically called “discrimination” by many people in politics, the media and academia.

"It doesn’t matter how much evidence there is that some groups work harder in school, perform better and spend more postgraduate years studying to acquire valuable skills in medicine, science or engineering. If the economic end results are unequal, that is treated as a grievance against those with better outcomes, and a sign of an “unfair” society.

"The rhetoric of clever people often confuses the undeniable fact that life is unfair with the claim that a given institution or society is unfair." ...   Full article here...

I suppose we will have to discuss the latest Clinton bimbo scandal

 

 I gave this post short shrift yesterday, not wanting to get in the gutter with it, but there may be much about the story on several levels. TD

 It all started here:

Bill Clinton identified in lawsuit against his former friend and pedophile Jeffrey Epstein who had 'regular' orgies at his Caribbean compound that the former president visited multiple times
"Bill Clinton's relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, who served time in 2008 for his illegal sexual partners, included up multiple trips to the onetime billionaire's private island in the Caribbean where underage girls were allegedly kept as sex slaves." ...

... "Flight logs pinpoint Clinton's trips on Epstein's jet between the years 2002 and 2005, while he was working on his philanthropic post-presidential career and while his wife Hillary was a Senator for their adopted state of New York." ...

...

"At least one woman on the compound was there unwillingly, as the suit identifies a woman as Jane Doe 102.

"She 'was forced to live as one of Epstein's underage sex slaves for years and was forced to have sex with... politicians, businessmen, royalty, academicians, etc,' ...

"Epstein's sexual exploits have been documented since 2005, when a woman in Palm Beach contacted police saying that her 14-year-old daughter had been paid $300 to massage him and then have sex."

From The Smoking Gun: Billionaire Sex Offender's Phone Book Contained E-Mail Addresses, 21 Phone Numbers For Bill Clinton  "Now that Prince Andrew has found himself ensnared in the sleazy sex slave story of wealthy degenerate Jeffrey Epstein, Bill Clinton can’t be too far behind."

Sally "War on Women" Kohn, where are you?

"Whoever's behind this is clearly trying to embarrass Clinton..."   "On his radio show Monday, Rush Limbaugh gave his take on the new details emerging about the “Palm Beach Pedophile” Jeffrey Epstein, the Democrat financier who allegedly had under age “sex slaves” at both his Palm Beach and New York houses, and whose case the Daily News reports is tied to Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew. The reason the story is breaking now, Limbaugh said, is all about “derailing Hillary.” After providing a little background on the scandal, Limbaugh turned to the political angle:" ...
...
"The timing of the story and the emphasis on the Clinton connection, Limbaugh argued, seems deliberately intended to thwart Hillary’s 2016 hopes. When the Millennials learn of Hillary’s past role in the “bimbo eruptions unit” to destroy the credibility of Bill’s women, Limbaugh suggested, her support among that demographic would collapse:"

Well, when they find out that Mrs. Clinton ran the "bimbo eruptions" unit to destroy women who accused her husband of nefarious things, just wait. That's something that hasn't happened yet.  ...

 Argus Hamilton said:

 Hillary Clinton's head trauma was probed by reporters Friday as they sought medical records of her home accident. She was standing and talking to Bill in his office, got dizzy, fainted and hit her head on his desk on the way down. It's weird, most women hit their heads on Bill's desk on the way up.

Revolting Truth: Defend Cancer Against the Jews!

Andrew Klavan  "In which our host, Andrew Klavan, stands up for the under-privileged victim of the Israeli occupation of science — Cancer!" Excerpt below with minor typo correction:

 But you know, the problem isn’t just Israel.  In some sense, it’s fair to say that Israel is the bloody tip of western civilization’s cancer-slaughtering spear.  After all, over 40 percent of the Nobel Prize winners in physiology and medicine have had Jewish heritage.  So I think we know who’s behind the international conspiracy to kill off innocent disease.  Therefore let me call on all left wingers everywhere to defend cancer against the Jews of Israel as you’ve defended and continue to defend Israel’s other enemies.  If we can stop Israel from attacking cancer then maybe cancer will have a chance to spread worldwide.

Should John Boehner remain speaker of the House?

 

Not many pro-Boehner cartoonists out there and they all have their take on him, beginning with Mike Ramirez above.


From Debate.org: Too bad there has been so little dialog in this site; it could have been interesting. Two posts against Boehner and one for in here.  TD

 

What's Louie Gohmert's real problem winning with John Boehner?   ..."Obama and Harry Reid can't face the trans-continental rejection of their policies and procedures by midterm voters. But with that resounding voter endorsement producing an historic House majority and a workable Senate one, the GOP has a golden chance to show its governing prowess in these 670 days until the presidential election.

"So, what does a clownish, rump posse of disgruntled House conservatives do? It launches a very public, very hopeless bid to thwart the will of colleagues, who already voted, and oust John Boehner as speaker." ...Read More At Investor's Business Daily:

Boehner Facing Dissent and Defections in Vote to Remain Speaker of House  "Speaker John A. Boehner is all but assured of re-election to the top House leadership post when his colleagues vote Tuesday, but the new term also could serve up the embarrassment of a potentially record number of his own Republican members voting against him as speaker.

"How the vote plays out is both a referendum on Boehner’s strength and on the Republicans’ ability to demonstrate a capacity to govern effectively now that they control both chambers of Congress. Already, the dissension among a small but vocal group of Republicans puts Boehner and his leadership team in the awkward situation of trying to beat back a conservative protest on the opening day of the 114th Congress, detracting from what should be a triumphant Republican return to power." ...

 

Tuesday’s Long Shot: 5 Reasons John Boehner Should Lose the Speakership Today  "Today is the first working day of the 114th Congress. And it’s the day that will determine the agenda for the next two years for the Republican-controlled House, because it’s the day our representatives will elect their Speaker. And Rep. John Boehner now has two challengers for that job: Rep. Ted Yoho of Florida, and Rep. Louis Gohmert of Texas. It’s a long shot that he’ll relinquish his position. But he should. And here are five of the most compelling reasons that Rep. Boehner should lose the gavel today: " ...

 ..."The question is: Will enough of our elected representatives have the intestinal fortitude to keep their oaths of office to uphold our Constitution and replace the man who isn’t?

Or will they continue with the status quo of funding every damned thing His Highness edicts? I’m afraid I know the answer.
