MUSLIMS SEND A 9-11 MESSAGE ...
OBAMA'S PERVERTED PRIORITIES ...
HISTORY MOST AMERICAN'S DON'T KNOW

Try  to wrap your mind around it: A mob of crazed Muslim barbarians attacks the U.S. embassy -- by legal definition in international law a part of the United States -- tears down our flag, replaces it with an Al Qaeda banner ... and our government under B. Hussein Obama issues a statement apologizing to THEM. All on 9/11, no less. Think the timing of the attack was coincidence, given the Muslim predilection for observing anniversaries?
     Is this or is it not near rock-bottom in national self-respect? The entire world sees what a gutless wimp we have masquerading as a "leader."

Now the U.S. ambassador to Libya and members of his staff have been murdered. More fruit of the "Arab Spring" so beloved by brain-dead American liberals.

Is it not an appealing thought? An American leadership that says to these murderous cretins, "Screw around with us, and we WILL kill you." And to the governments that harbor them, "We are going to inflict severe pain upon you" -- and do it.
     Does anyone expect the current Disgrace in the White House to, in the street vernacular he sometimes uses, "Grow a couple?" Of course not.

Obama refuses to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu over Iran. Only idiots would be surprised.
     Obama does, however, have time to shuck and jive with one of his biggest media brown-noses, David Letterman.
     He also found time yesterday to do an interview with a local Miami radio guy who calls himself "DJ Laz, the Pimp with the Limp," who also has a record of criminal charges. But does he have time for a crisis meeting with the Prime Minister of Israel. Nope. Too busy!
     Speaking of Barack's media suck-ups ... notice that Oprah has been much less visible this time? Some have concluded that her fall from the media heights began when she became an outspoken cheerleader for the man many view as the worst president in history.

Knowing now that Obama doesn't even attend half of his intelligence briefings, what's that do for your confidence in his foreign policy expertise and his will -- or ability -- to defend the country and our national interests?

Republicans with a recently-developed case of poll jitters might feel better over this analysis from Jennifer Rubin, one of the handful of conservatives at the Washington Post ...
"The media, liberal and conservative, might want to get a grip. Maybe the Post-ABC News poll showing the race a statistical dead heat, largely unchanged by the conventions, will help. (When they see Mitt Romney is leading by 11 points among independents they might calm down further. And when they notice the gender gap has largely disappeared — with Mitt Romney leading among men by three and President Obama leading among women by five — in a poll in which Republicans comprised only 23 percent of the sample they might feel a bit foolish about the outburst of anxiety — or elation —  on display on the Internet and Twitter.)"

... then there's this, from Commentary ...
     "President Obama may be enjoying a slight, if likely temporary, bounce in the polls this week. But one of the surveys showing him with a lead in a tight race over Mitt Romney also provides a breakdown of the data that confirms predictions that he is losing up to a quarter of the Jewish votes he got in 2008.
     "The Investors Business Daily/Christian Science Monitor/TIPP Poll gives a breakdown of religion along with other demographic groups and shows Obama leading among Jews by a margin of 59 to 35 percent with six percent undecided. While that is still a majority it is a dramatic decline from the 78 percent of the Jewish vote he got four years ago."

It is nevertheless incredible that more than half of American Jews still support a man who so openly detests the long-sought, and finally achieved, Jewish homeland. Just ... astonishing.

It is a depressing fact that most Americans know little history and care less. If they did, they might take note of this piece of rich political irony.
     Charles Wilson was president of General Motors during part of that company's greatest success. He ran it so well, President Eisenhower appointed him to be the nation's Secretary of Defense.
     He was once quoted -- actually misquoted -- as having said, "What's good for General Motors is good for America." 
     While there was obvious truth in that statement, since a growing economy was clearly good for both, Democrats excoriated him because they chose to interpret it as meaning Eisenhower had selected a man who put the interests of the automotive giant ahead of the American public.

The irony, of course, is that now Democrats applaud Obama's "bailout" of GM as a wonderful thing when, by any measure, the American taxpayers, GM stockholders and bondholders, as well as many dealers and their employees, got totally screwed in what was really a bailout of the autoworkers union and thus a purchase of their votes. And another GM bankruptcy likely looms ahead.

Remember the hilarity among Democrats when the first President Bush was introduced to a supermarket scanner and was fascinated by it? "Oh, he's sooo dumb!" they pronounced.
      Actually, it was a newly designed scanner that was far advanced over the models commonly in use at the time, but the media lefties left that out of their "reporting."
     So now comes the risible moment in the Obama campaign Sunday when the Dear Leader was handed an iPhone by a campaign aide -- and didn't know how to use it.
     If you wait long enough, what goes around DOES come around.

James Robbins Washington Times) reflects on the sorry state of this nation as he looks back on 9/11 ...
     "There is no talk of victory in the war on terrorism any more, or even an official definition of what it would look like. Americans used to know what it meant to win a war. Eleven years after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, Capt. Mitsuo Fuchido, who personally led the 1941 raid, was on a good will tour of the United States. He was the only Japanese officer who had participated in that attack who had survived World War II. Four years after Pearl Harbor, his country was in ruins, its empire destroyed, most of its major cities burned to the ground. By 1952, Fuchido had converted to Christianity and apologized for his role in the 1941 attack. That’s what victory looks like.
     "Now, not only is this country no longer at war with terrorism, the Obama administration doesn’t even know why there is a fight. The White House characterizes the conflict as a 'struggle against violent extremism' but is happy to accommodate Muslim extremists."

We have become predominantly a nation of weenies, led by the affirmative-action Weenie-in-Chief. Shining some lights up into the sky at the site of Islamic treachery and exhortations do go forth and do good deeds in memory of 9/11 merely reveals to the planet's population the spineless "leadership" the U.S. presents to the world.

Our former UN ambassador, John Bolton, makes the vital point regarding military strength and its contribution to peace ...
     " It is central to successful U.S. foreign policy that we achieve the overwhelming preponderance of our key objectives diplomatically, without the use of force. But as the Romans said, si vis pacem, para bellum: If you want peace, prepare for war. George Washington used the maxim in his first State of the Union address, and in our day, Ronald Reagan characterized his policy as “peace through strength.” The point is clear.
     "Unfortunately, too many mistake resolve for belligerence. President Obama, for example, acts as if American strength is provocative, that we are too much in the world, and that a lesser U.S. profile would make other nations better disposed toward us. This is exactly backwards. It is not our strength that is provocative, but our weakness, which simply emboldens our adversaries to take advantage of what they see as decline and retreat." -- Washtimes.com

Mull it over ...
     Democrats claim there's no significant illegal voting. This is the same party that, during it's nationally televised convention, conducted a blatantly crooked vote of delegates on whether or not to return mention of God and the affirmation that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel to their platform.

Mark Steyn reflects on the (abortion) priority expressed by Democrat convention "starlet" Sandra Fluke, who seems preoccupied with her genitalia ...
     "Sexual liberty, even as every other liberty withers, is all that matters: A middle-school girl is free to get an abortion without parental consent, but if she puts a lemonade stand on her lawn she’ll be fined."

All you need to know about news priorities at NBC ...
     While 9-11 commemoration ceremonies were going on -- and being covered by some outlets -- NBC's Today show was instead presenting a vital feature about ... the mama of the Kardashian vestal virgins discussing her boob-job.
     By the way ... Doesn't her husband, Bruce Jenner, look as if he hired a bad embalmer?

Friends just returning from a long driving trip originating in Northern California and traversing Nevada, Arizona and New Mexico say they've never seen so many cars pulled over in so many places to be ticketed.
     Traffic tickets have clearly become the chosen way for many government units to raise revenue. Watch that speedometer!

For 18-year-old Michael Smeriglio of Port St. Lucie, Florida, "Shooting off your own (hoo-hoo)" is no longer a metaphor for making a serious error. He did it -- or nearly so.
      The bullet from THE weapon he was cleaning passed thru his (hoo-hoo) and left testicle before lodging in his thigh.
     Police reports indicate his use of the Evil Weed may have been a factor.

Craig Ferguson--
     "Jeff Probst, Katie Couric, and Ricki Lake all premiered new talk shows. Oprah Winfrey's show has been off the air a year now. Since Oprah left, everyone's been asking the same question. Whose couch will Tom Cruise jump on when he signs a contract with his next 'new wife?'"
