Why Islam prefers strong, Immoral Men

In a video posted to YouTube on June 12, Salafi Shaykh Muhammad Hassan, a popular preacher in Egypt, explains why Islam prefers strong, immoral men over righteous, weak ones.
Salafi Sheikh Mohamed Hassan preaching on al-Rahma

The Prophet (peace be upon him), said…”Allah will support this religion through an immoral man.”

Watch a subtitled version of the full sermon

According to Translating Jihad, the Egyptian leader quotes Imam Ahmad, Ibn Taymiyya, and the Prophet Muhammad in making his case. Here are some text snippets:

If there are two men, and one of them is stronger spiritually, while the other is stronger physically, (the latter) is more beneficial to that nation. In war, for example, the strong man offers his courage, even if he is immoral or licentious. The weak man (only) offers his impotence, even if he is faithful…

Obama's Raw Deal

"Many a true word hath been
spoken in jest."  
- the Roxburghe Ballad (circa 1665) 

Time Magazine - November 2008

W.C.Fields published his first book, Fields for President, in 1940, an election year. As the only book he ever published, Fields for President is considered a unique collection of Fields’ comedy writing. 

In poking fun at presidential candidate Franklin D. Roosevelt, Fields wrote:


"I shall, my fellow citizens, offer no such empty panaceas as a New Deal, or an Old Deal, or even a Re-Deal.  No, my friends, the reliable old False Shuffle was good enough for my father and it’s good enough for me."

Teed Off at the U.S. Open Golf Tournament


Rory McIlroy of Northern Ireland holds the trophy.

Teed Off at the U.S. Open Golf Tournament


NBC issued an on-air apology Sunday after the NBC network twice omitted the words "under God" from a clip of students reciting the Pledge of Allegiance during its coverage of golf's U.S. Open.  

"We began our coverage of this final round just about three hours ago, and when we did it was our intent to begin the coverage of this U.S. Open championship with a feature that captured the patriotism of our national championship being held in our nation's capital for the third time," announcer Dan Hicks told viewers. "Regrettably, a portion of the Pledge of Allegiance that was in that feature was edited out. It was not done to upset anyone, and we'd like to apologize to those of you who were offended by it." Does NBC think we voters are just plain stupid? ...We are upset and offended by their liberal after-the-fact lame OOPS-Apology!
 
What? Is this a propaganda test by the liberal anti-Judeo Christian mainstream media?... First time, shame on NBC for trying to get away with it; second time, shame on the viewers if they had let them get away with it!  The backlash on social media was quick and harsh, with some tweets calling for a boycott of NBC.... Hooray! The U.S. Voters are really aware of what is going on in the mainstream media!

VOTE OUT ALL PROGRESSIVE LIBERALS IN 2012! 


Another issue:  The omission in the Pledge of Allegiance of the word “indivisible” was omitted.  Why? This is United States of America's nationalism being shouted out to the world.  Progressives deem it as arrogant and despise anyone who proudly says that the USA is the greatest nation in the world.

This part of the original version of the U.S. flag pledge was written just 30 years after the beginning of the Civil War and demonstrates the unity sought in the years after that divisive period in our history. The USA as a nation can not be separated and so should not be divided or alone.  All Americans stand indivisible, united in freedom.
 God Bless America!

The Idea Bulb burned out!


General Electric 
"Progress is our most important product"


  Ultra Chic Chandelier
In recent years, GE changed their famous slogan to "Imagination at Work" and in 2012, it now should be "Imagination on Hallucinogens".


Please tell me that our "easy on the eyes" and "soft light in any room of the house" incandescent light bulbs is not incarnating into a harsh, bright, white floodlight toned light source called either LED or CFL  lighting.

The environmentalists, the very people standing in the way  of new refineries, coal-fired power plants, and nuclear power plants (the people who brought you 1.6 gallon toilets with 3 flushes of water per visit) have succeeded in getting ordinary light bulbs banned in the United States.  

The federal ban on incandescent bulbs is a clear violation of the Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution that says,  "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people." 

Unfortunately, there are few people in Washington (or anywhere else) who give that silly  little technicality a second thought since now mandating  everyone to buy into Obamacare.

The energy bill that will phase out incandescent bulbs was proudly signed into law by, then, President Bush. Consequently,
President Obama rubs elbows with regulatory robber barons. Both political parties are duplicitous in Federal Government intervention into trouncing on individual rights.

President Obama on Monday, 6/13/2011, gave a pep talk for American manufacturing at a factory in Durham, N.C., where Cree Inc. makes LED light bulbs.  Cree embodies Obama-era capitalism:  profiting from government grants, political connections, revolving-door lobbyists and regulations that force people to buy their product.

President Obama doesn't see this as the regulatory robbery it is. He sees it as stimulus. After all, the regulation has helped Cree hire new workers. See? Everyone wins! ...Well, except for the hundreds of former General Electric factory workers who used to make the old incandescents in factories in Winchester, Va., Niles, Ohio, and Lexington, Ky. Those factories closed last summer thanks to the same law that is benefiting Cree. (But don't cry for GE, though -- the company's lobbyists also supported the regulations, which will drive business to their more profitable GE fluorescents and LEDs.)

Jeffrey Immelt, the GE CEO, the Chairman on the Presidential Council on Jobs and  Obama's jobs czar, was in Durham  who sees government as a "champion" of industry, especially if it greatly enriches his pockets for a bigger annual bonus and stock options.
   
So, except for about a dozen drawbacks, these fluorescent light bulbs are fine, and if the price of electricity triples, or if I'm forced to run on generator power, or if I want my home to look like a warehouse, I'll buy more of them. 


Shovel Ready Jobs

"Shovel-ready was not as . . .uh
 . . shovel-ready as we expected!”

 HaR! hAr! YuK! yUk!

Barack Obama joked about Shovel-ready jobs the other day at a meeting of his Council on Jobs and Competitiveness. His remark prompted hearty laughter from others on the panel, including GE's Jeffrey Immelt, head of the President's Council on Jobs, as they all laughed loudly about the wildly mistaken predictions he and other ignorant novices at the White House made a couple of years back  in 2008 about the job-creating potential of the $1 Trillion stimulus they had no clue about would fail.

The 14 million Americans who are looking for jobs right now don't find any of this very funny.
 
Obama said after being asked about a report that shows businesses were spending 2 percent more on employees since the recession officially ended, but 26 percent more on equipment, "There's some structural issues with our economy where a lot of businesses have learned to become much more efficient with a lot fewer workers" and added, "You see it when you go to a bank and ... you use an ATM, you don't go to a bank teller. Or you go to the airport, and you're using a kiosk instead of checking in at the gate," the president said.  Nah! ...he's gotta be pulling our legs, right?

Unless you are in OZ ...You are Clueless in DC!
No, this con man is not kidding with those kind of ridiculous insulting idiotic answers.  Obama really thinks the American voters are just too stupid to understand how jobs are not being created and he is going to shove all of his totally deceptive agenda and sham programs down our throats! 

We are on the First anniversary of the Obama administration's 2010 Recovery Summer ...and Americans are still asking the question, "Where are the jobs?"

What is the NWO? The New World Order!



Cass Sunstein - Regulatory Czar - New World Order (NWO)
 

January 18, 2011 - NewsWithViews.com, NWV, reported that President Obama signed Executive Order 13563 on Improving Regulation and Regulatory ReviewThe order stated under the General Principles of Regulation: “Our regulatory system must protect public health, welfare, safety, and our environment while promoting economic growth, innovation, competitiveness, and job creation.” (Double speak for keeping government jobs going) The executive order required federal agencies to review existing regulations and submit preliminary plans by May 18, 2011. (No way they can do it that fast)
 
On June 14, 2011, in its ongoing effort to fight burdensome regulations and protect jobs, the House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations this week examined the Obama administration on avoiding all attempts at any regulatory reform whatsoever.

During a startling exchange, Obama regulatory czar Cass Sunstein revealed that the administration’s independent agencies (Federal Communications Commission, Federal Trade Commission, etc), have refused to cooperate in the effort to identify job smothering regulations to non-government companies.

While independent governmental agencies are not technically required to comply with the Obama Executive Order, Cass Sunstein has encouraged their participation to support the top-heavy regulatory system in order to further Obama job creation and Progressive socialist ideas,  a polite way of saying  ..."Congress, Go stuff it!"

Cass Sunstein pushes the "New World Order" (NWO).  President Obama vigorously supports this Socialist  Contract concept.  Get used to it!  It will be the underlying message in the upcoming 2012 Presidential Campaign!
 
Below is a transcript from my very first blog on 9/01/2009. (It was and still is about Obama's "FCC Executive Order")

 FFC LOCALISM DOCTRINE

We are FINALLY HERE. We HAVE LOST our Free Speech! You think I am kidding?

Hugo Chavez in Venezuela just closed 34 radio stations for "license violations". Guess Obama just got done reading that book "Open Veins of Latin America: Five Centuries of the Pillage of a Continent by Industrialized Nations" (like the USA) that Hugo gave him during a session of the summit of the Americas in Trinidad. Obama, got any new ideas? Hmmn....LOL!

NEWS FLASH.....
As of July 29, 2009, with no public fanfare, Obama did anoint Mark Lloyd your new Federal Communication's Czar. He will dictate all terms through Official Executive Federal Orders issued without any consultation of the American People who are expected to obey without their approval for total Federal Controls of all Communications Airwaves and its content.

Welcome to the People's New World Order! (And, it all happened under your noses in the blink of an eye and the cursive scroll of Obama's pen!)

Read all about it:


New FCC 'Chief Diversity Officer' Co-Wrote Liberal Group's 'Structural Imbalance of Political Talk Radio'.

By Seton Motley
August 6, 2009

But Doctor of Jurisprudence Lloyd is far more than merely a communications attorney. He was at one time a Senior Fellow at the uber-liberal Center for American Progress (CAP), for whom he co-wrote a June 2007 report entitled "The Structural Imbalance of Political Talk Radio" which rails against the fact that the American people overwhelmingly prefer to listen to conservative (and Christian) talk radio rather than the liberal alternative, and suggests ways the federal government can remedy this free-market created "problem."
  • Restore local and national caps on the ownership of commercial radio stations.
  • Ensure greater local accountability over radio licensing.
  • Require commercial owners who fail to abide by enforceable public interest obligations to pay a fee to support public broadcasting.
These last two get perilously close to the use of "localism" to silence conservative (and Christian) radio stations, about which we have been warning for quite some time. 

"Localism" is a nebulous FCC regulatory requirement that radio stations must meet to get and keep their broadcast licenses. How it is defined and enforced is wide open to the interpretation of whomever is doing the enforcing. It can mean something benign like airing local public service announcements, or it can be used as a weapon by activists to punish, harangue and ultimately shut down stations they don't like.

In a follow-up essay to the CAP report entitled "Forget the Fairness Doctrine," Lloyd specifically instructs liberal activists to do the latter - use the "localism" requirement to harass conservative stations by filing complaints with the FCC. The FCC would then assess these stations fines, with the money going to (very liberal) public broadcasting. 

Or worse - the FCC would rescind these stations' broadcast licenses. In other words, shut them up by shutting them down. Thus, as Lloyd says, no need for the misnamed "Fairness" Doctrine. 

From Lloyd's piece:
To be fair, even some progressives are confused about the Fairness Doctrine. A recent news story reported that the League of United Latin American Citizens, or LULAC for short, has asked Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to reintroduce the Fairness Doctrine—even as the same article reports on a speech to LULAC by ABC News correspondent John Quinones, who spoke of his work bringing to audiences a hard-earned perspective to the long-running immigration debate.

Quinones told the LULAC audience that he got his start because a San Antonio community organization threatened that if the stations didn't hire more Latinos, the group would go to the FCC and challenge their licenses. "Thank God for them," Quinones said. "I wouldn't be here."

Equal opportunity employment policies. Local engagement. License challenges. Nothing in there about the Fairness Doctrine.
"Community organizations" (run one would think by community organizers) threatening the licenses of stations with whom they do not agree politically

The other part of our proposal that gets the dittoheads (i.e. Rush Limbaugh fans, meant here by Lloyd to more broadly refer to fans of all conservative talk) upset is our suggestion that the commercial radio station owners either play by the rules or pay. In other words, if they don’t want to be subject to local criticism of how they are meeting their license obligations, they should pay to support public broadcasters who will operate on behalf of the local community.
Lloyd's instructions to Leftist activists are clear: use the FCC to pummel conservative talk radio. With fines, or entirely out of existence.

And now Lloyd works for the FCC.

The VOLT is a shock at the Pumps!

Chevy Volt MUST NOT be allowed to fail!
"The Dirty Little Secret Behind the Chevy Volt"
$5/Gal. Gas + $1/Gal. Fed. Tax



The VOLT is a shock at the Pumps!
As of June 7, 2011Dan Akerson, the CEO of General Motors has announced that he fully backs an immediate  gasoline pump tax levy of $1.00 per gallon as a "Green Tax" to encourage the general public to buy his Chevy Volt as a leading answer to an alternative transportation to encourage clean air and less dependence on fossil fuels.  Say MORE GM Bailout??... Does this mean that when Obama is re-elected in 2012 that he passes a "Cap and Trade" Bill that this is in addition to it too?


The Real Story...
 
Patrick Michaels is a senior fellow in Environmental Studies at the Cato Institute and the editor of the forthcoming Climate Coup: "Global Warming's Invasion of our Government and our Lives", as well as the author of several other books on global warming.
His Forbes column on the Chevy Volt is a case study in the nexus between big government corruption and big business rent-seeking.   Michaels briefly recaps the well-known consumer fraud in which GM has touted the Volt as an all-electric mass production vehicle on the supposed basis of which its sales receive a $7, 500 taxpayer subsidy, which still renders it overpriced and unmarketable.
Michaels notes that "sales are anemic: 326 in December, 321 in January, and 281 in February." There seems to be a trend here.  He adds that GM has announced a production run of 100,000 in the first two years and asks what appears to be a rhetorical question: "Who is going to buy all these  "Green Energy" cars?" But wait, keep hope alive! There is a positive answer to the question. Jeffrey Immelt, CEO of General Electric., confirmed that GE will buy a boatload of those uneconomic GM cars. But, why?

Also, GE is also awash in Windmills waiting to be subsidized so they can provide unreliable, expensive power. No one in the Obama administration is mentioning that environmental groups are mad as hell that these contraptions are killing many endangered eagles and bird species by the hundreds and want their construction to stop. Will there be a huge bailout purchase for more "Green Energy" power sources like the GE Windmills?  Hmmn?...

Here the case study opens onto the inevitable political angle: Recently, President Obama selected General Electric CEO Jeffrey Immelt to chair his Presidential Economic Advisory Board.  Consequently, and soon after his appointment, Immelt announced that GE will buy 50,000 Volts in the next two years, or half the total produced.  Hmmn?...
Assuming the corporation qualifies for the same tax credit, we (you and me) just shelled out $375,000,000 to a company to buy cars that no one else wants, so that GM will not tank and produce even more cars that no one wants. And this guy is the chair of Obama's Economic Advisory Board?
Michaels includes this hilarious detail in his case study:

In a telling attempt to preserve battery power, the heater is exceedingly weak. Consumer Reports their tests averaged a paltry 25 miles of electric-only running, in part because it was testing in cold Connecticut . (The [GM] engineer at the Auto Show said cold weather would have little effect.) It will be interesting to see what the range is on a hot, traffic-jammed summer day, when the air conditioner will really tax the batteries. When the gas engine came on, Consumer Reports got about 30 miles to the gallon of premium fuel; which, in terms of additional cost of high-test gas, drives the effective mileage closer to 27 mpg.  (FYI: A conventional Honda Accord, which seats 5 (instead of the Volt's 4), gets 34 mpg on the highway, and costs less than half of what CR paid, even with the tax break.)
Now, The Rest of the Story...
The story of the GM Volt deserves a place in the Harvard Business School. It's a classic tale of the GOVERNMENT deciding what the public needs, not the marketplace. curriculum....but of course, it won't.
What is the primary reason for this debacle? Why it is to keep the United Auto Workers Union in the business of jobs of course, because Obama owes it for his 2008 election. Starting to make some  sense yet?  It's only taxpayer money to buy political preference. Chicago brand change we can believe in.

The Ready Reserve Corps

 The Ready Reserve Corps
 
  1. Does anyone know about this Army in the Healthcare Bill?  
  2. Why does President Obama have this Army?
  3. Why is this Army funded for $82.5 Mil (Fiscal 2010 - 14) for training?
Since when does the U.S. President exclusively appoint Officers for his own special Army without the advice or consent of the Senate unless there is going to be a revolutionary uprising and the government needs to quiet down and arrest those citizens who protest?...  ASK YOUR SENATOR OR CONGRESSMAN ABOUT IT!
