HALF-FULL REPORT 4/15/11

"I missed lunch for this?" That’s how Texas Republican Congressman Jeb Hensarling dismissed with disgust Zero’s fiscal policy speech on Wednesday (4/13).

This was, by general consensus, the worst speech in modern presidential memory.  "A new standard for class warfare rhetoric," Hensarling described it.  Arizona‘s Jeff Flake simply said it was "weird."

Charles Krauthammer on Fox was scathing, calling Zero’s speech a "disgrace – it was shallow, hyper-partisan, intellectually dishonest, and remarkably demagogic."

House Budget Chairman Paul Ryan, personally invited by Zero to sit in the front row so Zero could insult his budget plan to his face, riposted that Zero’s proposals were "dramatically inaccurate, and hopelessly inadequate to address our country’s fiscal challenges."

The best observation of all was that of Illinois Republican Joe Walsh:  Zero "is irrelevant right now.  It’s like the train has passed him by."

Walsh is not dumb, he knows how much juice the Oval Office has.  He means that no one is paying any attention to Zero’s policy proposals because he hasn’t got any – that Zero’s only power is to block Republican objectives, maintain the status quo, and thus continuing to bankrupt America while enriching his cronies and supporters.

In other words, all Zero is, like the Corruptocrat Party in general, is in the way.  They are nothing but obstacles, objects to be gotten around.  Let’s hope the Pubs remember this when it comes time to raise the debt ceiling next month.

The utterly asinine budget deal that Boehner said was the best he could get does not inspire the slightest confidence, however, in Republican courage.  Pathetic enough at $38 billion in phony cuts, the CBO then revealed it was actually a microscopic $352 million cutback.

Yet this turkey sailed through the House yesterday (4/14), 260-167.  How could this happen?

The most plausible explanation is one all smart parents employ regarding their kids:  "Pick your battles."  Here’s how John Podhoretz explains Why the budget deal passed even though it was a trick.

OK.  Let’s not waste angst and ammo on this – save it up for the Big Enchilada, All The Marbles, The Whole Ball of Wax, what I’ve been tirelessly harping on for months now:  the debt ceiling vote.

Boehner is promising that this is the battle to pick.  Last Friday night (4/09), he gave a speech, announcing:

"The president says, ‘I want you to send me a clean [debt ceiling] bill.’  Well, guess what, Mr. President, not a chance you’re going to get a clean bill. And I can just tell you this. There will not be an increase in the debt limit without something really, really big attached to it."   

When I was a kid, it was Sunday night tradition in my family to watch the Ed Sullivan Show.  At the show’s beginning, he would often say, "We have a really big shew for you tonight, folks… really big!"  So get ready for a Really Big Shew on the debt ceiling vote, Really Big!

To get a grasp on the numbers involved, watch them skyrocket in front of your eyes on http://www.usdebtclock.org/ .

Our nation’s fate actually does hang in the balance on this vote.  Senator Jim DeMint (SC) told Laura Ingraham last night (4/14) that he would filibuster the debt ceiling vote, and if that meant the GOP’s Waterloo, then "let it be." 

Shutting off the debt spigot is the only hope we have and DeMint knows it.  We all need to pray that he has enough colleagues to stand by him.

Isn’t this fun watching Donald Trump rattling Zero’s and the enemedia’s cages as he roars, "Show me the BC!"  As a consummate showman, he really knows how to do this – as shown by how he got deep under Little Harry Reid’s skin yesterday (4/14).

Reid actually had the temerity to sneer at Trump by telling Wolf Blizer that Trump "is not presidential caliber."  And Zero, the most unaccomplished, unqualified, incompetent occupant of the White House in American history, is?

While most all of us would prefer a better alternative to Trump as the Pub nominee, we’d all vote for him over Zero in a picosecond.  And here’s one exceedingly good reason to vote for a President Trump that you might not have considered:  America would have the sexiest, most drop-dead gorgeous First Lady in our country’s history. 

Compare Melania Trump to the First Shrew currently infesting the White House East Wing:

All right, Donald!

I’ve been thinking about my book, The Jade Steps, recently.  It’s the true story of the liberation of Mexico from a horrifically evil empire, that of the Aztecs.  We are seeing that evil emerging again, as on a daily basis now there is yet another news story of the latest gruesome atrocity committed by Mexico’s criminal gangs.

This week (4/11), we were treated to the report that gangs have sunk to killing the children of their rivals.  Mass graves were discovered last week, heaped with gang victims, some of them beheaded.

There is a deep sickness still inside the Mexican soul.  Cortez and Malinali put an end to it, but not permanently.  It’s come back – and it’s come to America.

Mexican gangs and cartels are buying US judges and police officers in cities in at least two dozen states.  They are now buying entire cities in California, massively bribing whole city councils and police departments such as Bell in Los Angeles County.  Almost half of Bell’s 40,000 residents are Mexican illegals.

Last month (March), thanks to exposure of the corruption by the LA Times, there was a recall election replacing the city government.  But dozens of other gang-bought cities remain unexposed.

A very courageous investigative reporter named Leslie Dutton has been chronicling gang corruption on her website fulldisclosure.net.  The problem is getting worse by the day – and of course, Zero and the Corruptocrats in Washington and Sacramento are doing nothing to stop it.  Indeed, they are encouraging it.

I hope you enjoyed the introductory chapter of Alex Alexiev’s The Main Enemy: Islamism.  We’ll all be getting a revelatory education on Islam from Alex over the coming weeks.

There is one aspect of Islamic culture that is finally starting to gain attention lately, and I’d like you to be aware of it.  There is no religion on earth more than Islam and no culture on earth more than Arabs that espouses first cousin marriage.

That’s because cousin marriage was enshrined in Islamic legend by Mohammed himself (I say legend because there is no independent or contemporary evidence whatever of Mohammed’s historical existence).

Mohammed is said to have had no sons and only one daughter, Fatimah.  She married her first cousin Ali ibn Abi Talib – the son of Abu Talib ibn Abd al-Muttalib, the full brother of Mohammed’s father, i.e., Mohammed’s uncle.

A brother of Ali (who married Fatimah) was Jafar ibn Abi Talib.  His eldest son Awn ibn Jafar married Ali and Fatimah’s eldest daughter Umm Khultum bint Ali.  Jafar’s second son, Abdullah ibn Jafar married Ali and Fatimah’s second daughter Zaynab bint Ali.

So the tradition of first cousin marriage goes back to the origin of Islam and has been fervently practiced for 1400 years throughout Arab culture.  The result, researched by the Centre for Arab Genomic Studies in Dubai, is that Arabs today have one of the world’s highest rates of genetic disorders.  (See Consanguinity and Reproductive Health among Arabs, October 2009)

First cousin marriages are not unique to Arabs, of course – all those Appalachian hillbilly idiot jokes have a basis in fact.  Rome’s Mark Anthony (Marcus Antonius 83-30 BC) married his first cousin Antonia before he fell in love with Cleopatra.  All four children of Rome’s first Christian Emperor Constantine (272-337) married their first cousins.  England’s Queen Victoria  (1819-1901) and her husband Prince Albert (1819-1861) were first cousins.

But never in the Western world or most anywhere else has cousin marriage been habitual or preferred (except in certain royal lineages).  Throughout the entire Middle East in Arab culture from Morocco to Iraq, by contrast there is not only a preference but a right of a man to marry his father’s brother’s daughter (FBD).   That is, if the girl’s family wishes to marry her to anyone else, they must first get the permission of the father’s brother’s son.

Keep doing this for centuries and you’ll end up with folks who make those in Appalachia look like Einsteins.  That really explains a lot, doesn’t it?

So we get Moslem bozos going murderously berserk-o over some publicity-hound pastor in Florida burning some ink on paper.  Here’s a question to ask them:  how come you guys don’t get upset by Moslem apostate women burning your "holy" Korans?

You’d think that, as so many Moslem men hate and fear women so much because they have teeny weenies (see Terrorism and Tiny Zibbs), this would really set them off.  Maybe they don’t know about it.  Let’s make sure they do.

The fun project of the week is to send this video and accompanying English translation of an Iranian woman burning a Koran to Arab websites.  She is a Moslem apostate, who has come to see Islam as imposed upon the Persian people by Arab imperialism.  She feels that Persia or Iran will not be free until it rejects the religion of Arab imperialism.

She is seriously enraged so her language is, ah, colorful.  This is what she is saying, albeit bowdlerized, translated from Farsi:

This that you see here, is the Koran
It’s a s**t book, for the Moslem and Arabs spread it over Iran by force, murder and death
This is the problem with our country, they have brought this s**t upon our heads
The s**t must be burned
I’m going to put gasoline on this very nice and full, and I am going to burn it like this
The Koran has to be burned, look at how I burn it

F**k the religion of Islam
The fact that slavery is condoned in this s**t book is f**king repulsive
We are Iranians and we say f**k this piece of s**t foreign religion placed upon us
Send this religion back to the s**t hole where it came from
And leave this s**t for the Arabs
All us Iranians must do our duty and burn the Koran

 

This woman is not a Westerner.  We can’t be blamed.  The struggle for freedom from Islamic oppression is not one we have to fight alone.
