Watch: Tim Tebow's terrific Super Bowl ad

Boston.com Via Lucianne.
 

 

"World peace?

"No problem for Tim Tebow.

"Turns out the Patriots did themselves and Tebow a huge favor by releasing him from his contract before the season.

"Tebow has cashed in on his #NoContract status with a pair of 30-second commercials for T-Mobile set to air during the Super Bowl. If this one is any indication, the rest of the field will be fighting for second place in the "Best in Show" category. The ad is both creative, funny and incredibly well-produced.
Enjoy this slice of Super Bowl ad heaven and God bless.

Israeli Leaders Slam Kerry--Again

Joel B. Pollak

"U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is once again the target of criticism, direct and indirect, by Israeli leaders after he suggested that Israel could face "delegitimization" and "boycott" campaigns without a peace deal with the Palestinians.  (emphasis in the original)

"That remark, made Saturday at the Munich Security Conference, prompted Economy Minister Naftali Bennett to slam Kerry: "We expect our friends around the world to stand beside us, against anti-Semitic boycott efforts targeting Israel, and not for them to be their amplifier," Bennett said on Saturday evening."  
....
"Kerry, who has been to the region ten times in less than a year in office, is increasingly perceived by Israelis as attempting to impose an unworkable "solution" on them."

The Cruelty of Gun-Free Zones

National Review 

 

..."In November, Interpol’s secretary general, Ron Noble, noted there are two ways to protect people from such mass shootings: “One is to say we want an armed citizenry; you can see the reason for that. Another is to say the enclaves [should be] so secure that in order to get into the soft target you’re going to have to pass through extraordinary security.”

 

"Noble sees a real problem: “How do you protect soft targets? That’s really the challenge. You can’t have armed police forces everywhere.”

 

“ 'It makes citizens question their views on gun control,” he noted. “You have to ask yourself, ‘Is an armed citizenry more necessary now than it was in the past, with an evolving threat of terrorism?’” 

 

"His comments were made right after the terrorist attack at the Westgate Mall in Nairobi, Kenya, where 68 people were killed. Kenya bans both open and concealed carrying of firearms by civilians. Yet, obviously, those bans didn’t stop the terrorists."

Before you grab the pitchforks, just ignore anything the MSM says about Republican Candidates

"Evidence exists"?

Clarice Feldman   "Time and again, the media run with poorly sourced, inaccurate, unchecked claims against Republican front runners and send the white toga crowd fleeing.In fact, no claim is too outrageous, too thin or poorly sourced to be checked  before it goes to print and no error is  seems to  warrant a timely, public correction by the mainstream media. When will we grow up and learn to discount it all until there is solid proof of wrongdoing?

White House desperately searching for another excuse to not build Keystone XL

American Thinker  "The long-awaited and long-delayed State Department report on the environmental impact of the Keystone XL Pipeline is in, and avers no net increase in carbon emissions. So now the Obama administration is reduced to scrambling for alternative justifications for further delay. Fox News reports:

The White House released a statement pushing back on the notion that the pipeline is now headed for speedy approval, saying Sec. of State John Kerry and other agency heads will "closely evaluate" the report in the coming weeks.

Of course, we can just continue to ship the oil by rail.

Reject BDS! Buy Israeli goods, including Sodastream

WHAT IS BDS?  "Welcome to the website of the Palestinian BDS National Committee (BNC), a wide coalition of the largest Palestinian organisations, trade unions, networks and NGOs. 
"In 2005, Palestinian civil society issued a call for a campaign of boycotts, divestment and sanctions (BDS) against Israel until it complies with international law and Palestinian rights."

Of course, Hollywood and academia have jumped all over this and woe to the national figure who dares to stand by Israel as Ms. Johansson has done.

Of ScarJo, Soda, Settlements, and Super Bowls; The seltzer-maker spokeswoman strongly supports Israel and its manufacturers.  "But the fortitude displayed by ScarJo (a leading celebrity exponent of numerous liberal causes, as readers of this site well know), speaks volumes about the righteousness of Israel’s cause and the moral bankruptcy — and rank ineffectiveness — of the boycott crowd."
....
"Indeed, as is typical for the Israel-hating crowd, the boycotters get both their facts and their inferences wrong. First, SodaStream offers comprehensive benefits, including health insurance, and high wages for the Palestinians it employs in its Ma’aleh Adumim facility — better jobs than are available in most of the West Bank. The company’s CEO “just can’t see how it would help the cause of the Palestinians if we fired them,” as the boycott movement effectively desires." ...

Sodastream  
Watch this Scarlett Johansson commercial that made the anti-Israel lobby livid. 
 

Debbie Schlussel is not impressed with Scarlett Johansson  "Scarlett Johansson isn’t a hero in my book. Not even close. She has a history of hanging out with and enabling Israel-haters and anti-Semites." ...

And she doesn't love Sodastream all that much either:
And SodaStream is one of those typical Israeli companies that panders to Muslims because they are politically correct and think this will help them escape the Judenrein boycott Israel campaign (but won’t). They hired a lot of Palestinian Muslim workers (not just Israeli ones–despite chronic unemployment remaining among Jews who were forced out of their Gaza homes). They built an on-site mosque, forever making that mosque (and the ground beneath and surrounding it) Dar Al-Islam ["Islamic land"] in the eyes of Islam. That’s Scarlett Johansson’s kind of company. But because the company is owned by Jews, it’s never enough. No “good deed” toward Muslims goes unpunished. Dhimmis are useful idiots, always and forever."
Emphasis added.

Nevertheless, I recommend Sodastream along with other Israeli products to reject those entities who want Israel not just gone, but destroyed. Never support the causes of those who celebrate the murder of entire families simply because they are Israeli.

BOYCOTT ISRAEL COMPANY LIST



Before you boycott Israel, you better get your facts straight.  This makes you wonder where those US liberal human shields are. 

In Viral Clip, Brit Hume Criticizes Abortion Supporters

Heritage 

 

"On the 41^st anniversary of Roe v. Wade, Fox News Political Analyst Brit Hume delivered a passionate commentary on abortion – a broadcast that has gone viral.
"Hume praised the commitment of those attending the March for Life each year and accused abortion supporters of resorting to “absurd euphemisms” to justify their position." ....

“If science is able to determine that a fetus at a certain age, a certain stage, feels pain … that would change everything,” said Hume. “I think that support for abortion and abortion rights and for its legality would crumble…and the political atmosphere around this issue would change almost overnight.”

We have to elect Nancy Pelosi in order to find out what's in her head

Electing Nancy Pelosi to find out what's in her head  "Thursday night House Minority Leader and former Speaker of the House Rep Nancy Pelosi (D-Cal) who represents a district that believes we have to be against income inequality and the one per cent even though our income is unequal because we are part of the one per cent, helped comedian Jon Stewart establish his bi partisan cred."

UPDATE: Note: the quote below about making new friends in a doctor's office was NOT said by Nancy Pelosi, but was attributed to her in a satirical article.

Right:Where Nancy Pelosi's voters live.
This should make the case for term limits if nothing else will.











Pelosi on Why the ObamaCare Website Rollout Failed: 'I Don't Know'

More Laughing At Pelosi: Daily Show Audience, Jon Stewart Howl At Her Saying, “We Are The Party Of Green”  "Jon Stewart asks Nancy Pelosi about corruption in politics and says this is a problem that is both Republican and Democratic, that it isn’t a party issue that it is all motivated by the color green, meaning money.
"Pelosi responds by saying we are the party of green, we protect the environment, at which the audience laughs hysterically. She then says to Stewart, “I don’t know how persuadable you are”, at which point, Stewart sort of chokes with laughter."

 

Gibson Sticks Thumb in Obama Administration's Eye with 'Government Series' Guitars

Big Government  "In 2011, the Department of Justice raided Gibson Guitar facilities in Memphis and Nashville, alleging a violation of the so-called Lacey Act, a law that bans the importation of certain kinds of wildlife, plants and wood."

"At the time, Breitbart News suggested that the federal government targeted Gibson because of the conservative ideological stance it had supported. But according to the Gibson Guitar website, the tonewood was returned and made into the Government Series II Les Paul guitars:

....

" 'Gibson’s line of those guitars start $1,099 and are topped by a pickguard hot-stamped in gold with the “Government Series” graphic, which is a bald eagle hoisting a Gibson guitar neck.
“ 'Each Government Series II Les Paul also includes a genuine piece of Gibson USA history in its solid rosewood fingerboard, which is made from wood returned to Gibson by the US government after the resolution,” the website states."

Discussing the Keystone pipeline

A case FOR the Keystone pipeline:  ... "Solar and wind sources of energy only supply 3.6% of the nation’s energy needs.  Hydroelectric supplies less than 10%, nuclear about 19% (France gets 80% of  its energy from nuclear).  So for the foreseeable future the U.S. still needs fossil fuels.  Therefore this dilemma is not really a dilemma at all.  If the U.S. cannot get the oil it needs from domestic sources and help improve the economy and create thousands of jobs at the same time, it will get it from foreign sources and give up to $500 billion a year of its wealth to countries that don’t like us and in some instances mean us harm, and to the detriment of the economy as well."

The untold story of Keystone: How one Nebraska farmer killed the pipeline

... "The story is more than that. The Keystone XL project was ensnared as much by concerns over water as over air, and its first—and in some ways most effective—opponents were Republicans, operating far from the cameras of the national media. Their story opens a window on the unpredictable interplay between conservatism’s business wing and its grassroots, libertarian wing, and underscores how America’s restless and kaleidoscopic politics can confound Canadian diplomacy."

The Left Wants Names; and the Internal Revenue Service Wants to Help

Heritage  "So those new rules for 501(c)4s will provide clarity and ensure that conservative non-profits never have to be hassled again by the Internal Revenue Service, right? Not exactly. The Cato Institute’s Trevor Burrus explains that the IRS’s effort is really an attempt to drive conservative 501(c)4s from the public square:"
....
"The rules will essentially force 501(c)4 groups to reorganize under section 527 of the tax code, which requires them to release the names of their donors. What’s so bad about disclosing the names of those funding political speech?" ....
....

"By the way, speaking of non-anonymous political speech, here is a text message received by thousands of Ukrainians who were in the streets of Kiev last week: “Dear subscriber, you are registered as a participant in a mass disturbance.” [The Verge, January 21]"
