"The DNC just lost it's mind - and perhaps it's own base - with this new ad"

Democrats prefer you fear Republicans more than radical Islamists

"Ridiculous. Embarrassing. The stupidity and blatant intellectual dishonesty of this ad makes me hostile. Normally, what the DNC says and does pales in comparison to the follies of the social justice warriors and 60s-era “activist” sect, but this is just too much.

"The DNC rails in this ad about “incitement,” saying that inciting fear “isn’t presidential”; the problem is that this very ad attempts to incite more fear than even the most radically offensive, white hood-wearing, backwoods racist could ever hope for.

"They don’t want you to be afraid of radical Islamists. They want you to be afraid of Republicans. I’m not sure how this messaging could get any stupider or more opportunistic, but I welcome the comments section to have some fun with it.

"Most importantly, as Alex Griswold points out, the DNC may have just alienated their own base:" . . .

Obama trashes America in a speech in Malaysia

Thomas Lifson 
"I am disgusted that President Obama disparaged the United States in a speech he delivered overseas, in Malaysia, of all places.  In doing so, he not only revealed his conspicuous lack of patriotism, but displayed an amazing lack of awareness about the country hosting him.

"Dave Boyer of the Washington Times reports:

President Obama discussed America’s faults Friday with young Asian leaders, saying the U.S. suffers from “pitfalls” such as income inequality, a political system controlled by the wealthy and political parties divided along racial lines.

"Obviously, Obama is unaware that the largest political party in Malaysia is race-based.  The United Malays National Organization (UNMO) has supplied all six of the prime ministers who have run the government since the country’s founding and have made Malaysia an Islamic state, despite the fact that Malays account for a bare majority of the population, with very large Chinese (22.6%) and Indian (6.7%) minorities.  The country enforces quotas designed to discriminate against the Chinese- and Indian-heritage citizens in favor of the Malays, who lag in education, income, and adaptation to the demands of an industrial and commercial society.

"Obama is almost certainly completely ignorant of Malaysia’s horrific history of race-based slaughter – i.e., in 1969, when Malays roamed the streets of Kuala Lumpur and elsewhere beheading Chinese.

"It is bad enough that a president demonizes his own country abroad.  But to disparage our race politics in a country like Malaysia is unforgivable."

Hillary's tough talk can't cover up her role in ISIS' emergence

Investors.com

"After the Islamist carnage in Paris, however, his first-term secretary of state on Thursday called for ramping it up against ISIS in a speech to the Council on Foreign Relations. Or sort of. "We must lead the world to meet this threat," Clinton told an assembly of liberals.

It's the foreign policy tag team of President Obama and Secretary Clinton that withdrew America from world leadership while shrinking the U.S. military. How credible is her call for "a new phase" against ISIS, with "a broader target set," "an immediate intelligence surge" and giving U.S. "troops advising and training the Iraqis greater freedom of movement and flexibility"?

"Without naming it, Clinton praised President Bush's 2007 Iraq surge, but charged that afterwards the Iraqis "were betrayed and forgotten." Betrayed by whom, Mrs. Clinton? By you and your boss, for whom withdrawal from Iraq was the only goal.
She refuses to consider sizable U.S. ground forces, but says "Congress should swiftly pass an updated authorization to use military force" — force the world knows we have no intention of using?

"Yet Clinton provides a wish list of Mideast diplomatic breakthroughs that a U.S. with no skin in the game will somehow bring about: "work with" Putin's Russia, get "our Arab and Turkish partners" to "step up in a much bigger way," bring in Jordan and Saudi Arabia, "counter Iranian influence across the region.'

These people - Sikhs - are not even close to being Muslims

‘Terrorist, go back to your country,’ attacker yelled in assault of Sikh man

“ 'Terrorist!” “Bin Laden!” “Go back to your country!” came the shouts from the other car.

"Inderjit Singh Mukker, a father of two on his way to the grocery store in his Chicago suburb, pulled over when the vehicle behind kept tailgating him, according to the Sikh Coalition. The 53-year-old Sikh man, who wears a beard and turban, expected that the person in the other car would just drive past.

"Instead, the Coalition says, the other driver got out and stormed toward him, reaching into Mukker’s car and repeatedly punching him in the face. Mukker lost consciousness and had to be taken to the hospital, where he received treatment for a fractured cheekbone, bruising and blood loss and six stitches for the lacerations on his face." . . .
Not, repeat NOT, a Muslim

NOT, repeat NOT, a Muslim:

"On Sept. 15, 2001, four days after 9/11, Balbir Singh Sodhi was shot and killed outside his gas station in Arizona. The gunman mistook the 49-year-old Sikh, an immigrant from India, for an Arab, and said he killed him in retaliation for the attacks. The attacker was found guilty of murder and sentenced to death.

Sikhism: 5 Things To Know About The Sikh Religion

. . . 5. The Five Ks: The Five Ks are the articles of faith that Sikhs wear as ordered by the 10th Guru, Guru Gobind Singh. Most Sikhs wear one or more of the articles but only Sikhs who have taken amrit, a ritual analogous to baptism, wear all. They include:

• Kesh, or unshorn long hair, which is protected by a dastaar, or turban. The dastaar is worn by men and some women to cover their long hair. But most women keep their hair long and uncovered, except for when entering a gurdwara.

• A kangha is a small wooden comb meant to keep the hair combed twice a day.
• A kara is an iron bangle to be worn on the hand used most.
• A kachera is a specific undergarment for men and women.
• A kirpan is a short dagger.
  
  

You may notice that the word "jihad" appears nowhere, repeat: nowhere - in articles about Sikhs. The Tunnel Dweller

American Silliness Nov 20

Princeton to erase 'racist' Woodrow Wilson "Demonstrators calling themselves the Black Justice League (BJL) began an occupation of Nassau Hall Wednesday morning, demanding President Christopher Eisgruber sign on to a list of three major demands. Their first and most notable demand is the school acknowledge the “racist legacy” of famed alumnus Wilson by renaming the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs, renaming the Wilson residential hall, and removing a mural of Wilson that decorates Wilcox dining hall. " . . .

In a 7th grade class in Huntington Beach, California, students were forced to learn a song promoting Islam.

"The school administrators said they did not approve it but the teacher just wanted the students to understand the goals of a terrorist group. It seems it would be better to teach it without putting the children in the position of empathy with the terrorists." .. .

Krauthammer: After Paris, Obama Refuses to Lead

"Barack Obama, titular head of the free world, has responded to Paris with weariness and annoyance." 

Charles Krauthammer 
.
. . . "His news conference in Turkey was marked by a stunning tone of passivity, detachment, and lassitude, compounded by impatience and irritability at the very suggestion that his Syria strategy might be failing. The only time he showed any passion was in denouncing Republicans for hardheartedness toward Muslim refugees. One hundred and twenty-nine innocents lie dead but it takes the GOP to kindle Obama’s ire."
. . .

"Obama’s priorities lie elsewhere. For example, climate change, which he considers the greatest “threat to our future.” And, of course, closing Guantánamo. Obama actually released five detainees on the day after the Paris massacre. He is passionate about Guantánamo. It’s a great terrorist recruiting tool, he repeatedly explains. Obama still seems to believe that — even as the Islamic State has produced an astonishing wave of terrorist recruitment with a campaign of brutality, butchery, and enslavement filmed in living color. Who can still believe that young Muslims are leaving Europe to join the Islamic State because of Guantánamo?"

Black Lives Natter

Black Lies Natter at Mount Holyoke  " . . .Those in the know surmise Mount Holyoke has abandoned any pretense of educational standards enabling women to live useful lives, and devolved into a psychosexual playpen for lesbians from wealthy families and international students. This theory explains why the brownshirt bratocracy is running wild at Mount Holyoke College.

"In January 2015, the girls gave the boot to a performance of The Vagina Monologues because it was insufficiently "transgender inclusive." By that standard there would never have been a play produced in human history." . . .

Student leaders who didn't 'proclaim that Black Lives Matter' face impeachment   . . .

Wild Wings Cafe (@WildWingsCafe) Fires Student Worker After She Declares “All Lives Matter” 
"Emily Faz, a student at Georgia Southern University, finally had enough of the “Black Lives Matter” nonsense circulating on college campuses. She took to her personal Facebook profile to declare that “all lives matter” and that nonsense better not start on Georgia Southern’s campus or she’d let them have it. She called it “B.S.”

"Naturally, college activists with no real jobs made sure she lost her job. Wild Wings Cafe fired Emily Faz from her job. Luckily, despite harassment, the local college President says Emily was just exercising her First Amendment rights. "

Valerie Jarrett: Obama not a lame duck, big things are coming

. . . "Jarrett predicted “really big things” would happen during Obama’s final year in office.

“ 'Even though we only have one year left, it’s the second half of the fourth quarter but really big things happen at the end of the game as we all know. Just look at this last year, we’ve had a terrific year, and if you recall not that long ago the press was calling the president a lame duck – I believe it was – it doesn’t feel much like lame duck to me,” she said."

Charlie Sheen, Actor, Blowhard And Irresponsible Jerk

"JoshuaPundit : I rarely pay attention to Hollywood or what passes for  celebrities there, but it’s finally come out that Charlie Sheen is HIV positive and has been for quite some time. While I sympathize with anyone who has this illness, Sheen apparently hid it from the world for quite some time, even paying millions to blackmailers. And he also hid it from a number of his sexual partners. 

"Lawsuits will of course ensue, but how much money can ever compensate for someone infecting you with HIV and potentially taking your life and the lives of others whom never made the choice to have sex with Charlie Sheen, never even met him? How much would you settle for?" . . .

Comedian Argus Hamilton commented on this:

"Charlie Sheen set off a wave of fear in Hollywood after admitting on the Today Show Tuesday that he’s been diagnosed as HIV positive. It didn’t go unnoticed by the administration. President Obama announced that under his leadership, HIV has been completely eradicated in the United States."

Hillary can't run from the messes she and Obama - made

NY Post via Lucianne

 . . .“We must lead the world to meet this threat,” she said near the beginning, and soon added, “This is a worldwide fight, and America must lead it.”

"She ended by saying America must resolve that “we will do all we can to lead the world against this threat that threatens people everywhere.”

"That’s the obvious and right message, but each time she said it, another doubt came to mind. Does she mean it?

"There’s the ultimate rub. Clinton has proven herself to be such a stranger to truth that nothing she says can be taken at face value. She’s a political weather vane.

"She’s the one who bragged in 2008 that she was ready to answer the 3 a.m. phone call. But when the call came from Benghazi, she was nowhere to be found, and forever damaged herself by insisting in public, and to the families of the four Americans who died, that an anti-Muslim video was to blame." . . .

Obama may not be able to run out the clock and leave his mess to others

CIA Director John Brennan admits that ISIS (Islamic State) was decimated under George W Bush, but grew into a monster under Barack Hussein Obama

. . . "Speaking at a Center for Strategic & International Studies forum Monday, Brennan called ISIS “an organization of murderous sociopaths” and said of the Paris attack, “I certainly would not consider it a one-off event. It is clear to me that ISIS has an external agenda and that they are determined to carry out these types of attacks.' ” . . .

This means that, by the CIA’s own estimate, ISIS has grown on Obama’s watch from just 700 fighters to between 20,000 and 31,500 fighters. That is an increase of between 2,700 and 4,400 %.

President Obama may not have the luxury of running out the clock    . . . "President Obama will not enjoy the last 15 months of his presidency, from the collapse of ObamaCare to shifting strategy to fight ISIS.T
"his is not what year 7 of the Obama presidency was to supposed to look like. Nevertheless, this is what the world looks like!" . . .

Obama Fiddled as Islamic State Grew  . . . "That growth didn’t happen without warning, either. Obama’s own Defense Intelligence Agency warned in 2012 that the group could “declare an Islamic state through its union with other terrorist organizations in Iraq and Syria.” Sounds like some key information, but running a re-election campaign in which Obama wanted to boast of having been the one to “decimate” al-Qaida (if you can’t blame Bush, at least steal his credit, right?), Obama ignored the report. Lt. Gen. Michael Flynn, who ran the defense agency at the time, put it this way: “It was disregarded by the White House. … Frankly, at the White House, it didn’t meet the narrative.” Bingo."

Sharyl Attkisson: Sources Say Obama Won't Listen to Intel About Islamic Terrorist Groups . . . "I have talked to people who have worked in the Obama administration who firmly believe he has made up his mind, I would say closed his mind, they say, to the intelligence they try to bring him about various groups he does not consider terrorists even if they're on the U.S. list of designated terrorists," Attkisson said. "I don't know the reasoning for it -- I’ve only been told by those who have allegedly attempted to present him, or been in the circle that has attempted to present him, with certain intelligence that they said he doesn’t want it, he said he doesn't want it or he won't read it in some instances."
