For Whom The Bell Tolls
Sep 10, 2010 General
A church in Manayunk, a neighborhood in the northwestern section of the city of Philadelphia PA, has had a complaint filed against it because its bell is too loud. The church that has been there for longer than any of the residents has a huge bell that tolls during the day. Someone complained that the church is violating noise laws for the town.
Christians became enraged at the thought of the church being told to stop ringing its bell and threatened violence if the city goes through with the process of fining the church. Army Generals complained about the Christians and their violence and how it might increase the danger to US troops serving overseas. Barack Obama, Sarah Palin, Sean Hannity, Glenn Beck, and Hillary Clinton all weighed in asking the town not to take further action that could inflame Christians and INTERPOL has issued a global warning to 188 member countries that violence against innocent people is likely to increase if the church is sanctioned.
OK, the last paragraph is complete nonsense. Those actions were in response to a Florida pastor’s plans to burn the Koran and the anticipated (and threatened) violence from the Islamic adherents to the religion of peace.
In reality, the church has toned down the bell over the years by reducing the number of times and frequency that it is rung and is looking at ways to reduce its sound level. It will be interesting to see how this plays out because churches are not mentioned in the list of noise producers covered or excluded and it has been there for around a century, long before noise restrictions were enacted (and long before the people who enacted them were born).
I wonder why a person would move to where a church bell makes loud noise and then complain about it.
In any event, it will be interesting to see how this plays out because there is a favored religion (cult) in this country that has very noisy calls to prayer five times a day. Muslim Mosques do not care about noise when they have the call to prayer (something Obama described as one of the most beautiful sounds) and though there is no mosque mentioned in the town one has to wonder if the town would have gone after a mosque for noise violations and if the Muslims would have felt disrespected and started making threats and participating in violent acts.
Look at how the Muslim world got its collective sheets in an uproar over some unknown pastor and his plan to burn Korans at his small church. There were protests around the world and threats to do harm to our soldiers (I would relax the rules of engagement and eliminate that threat) and this is not the first time.
Now we even have the Imam of the Ground Zero Mosque saying that they have to build the mosque there now or there will be violence. More threats.
This will happen more and more as Islamic groups demand things and then threats are made when they do not get their way. Every time we give in or they get their way after a threat then we will be a little weaker.
Fortunately, it looks like the pastor called off the Koran burning and did it in a manner that looks like a mutual agreement.
Now let’s see what happens from here.

Commander In Chief Visits Fort Hood Wounded
Nov 10, 2009 Political
The only problem is that it was the former Commander in Chief and not the current one. While Fort Hood is picking up the pieces and soldiering up, while the FBI is finally investigating the shooter’s ties to terrorism (and yes, there are ties), Barack Obama has not visited the wounded. He has yet to even visit the post (he is scheduled to saunter in today).
President George Bush and his wife Laura went to Fort Hood for a private visit with those wounded by the first Islamic terrorist attack on American soil since 9/11. George Bush always cared about the troops and often visited with them at Walter Reed.
The Bushes entered and departed the sprawling military facility in secret, having told the base commander they did not want press coverage of their visit, a source told Fox News. Fox
I know that running this country is a full time job but it seems to me that Obama could make an effort to get to Hood quickly to visit with the wounded and reassure the families of the dead. Let his Chicago thug buddies call up and ask him to make a pitch for the Olympics and he is on Air Force One jetting halfway around the world. When Michelle decides it is time for her date he hops on our plane and takes her to New York.
Let an Islamic terrorist kill American soldiers at the largest military base around and he fails to post.
And people wonder why the military has little use for this guy. The military, by and large, loved George Bush because he respected them and led them. He certainly did not leave them hanging for reinforcements while he stuck his wetted finger in the political wind to see what to do.
Bush was genuine and this idea is just reinforced by his visit to the wounded at Hood.
There should be no doubt by now that Hasan had ties to radical Muslims (who are praising what he did) and that he was making contact with al Qaeda sympathizers (and possibly members). His murder spree was motivated by his religion which makes him an Islamic terrorist. Yes, the government and the media tried to steer everything away from that fact but the evidence is mounting up and that can only mean the biggest terrorist attack on a US military base, in the US, happened on Obama’s watch and it was conducted by a guy who supported Obama.
The guy who did it was not a right wing conservative, or as Napolitano would put it, a domestic terrorist, but instead by a radical Muslim.
We are being told not to jump to conclusions (like say, Obama saying the police acted stupidly) and that there is a worry about backlash against Muslim soldiers. I don’t see that backlash taking place. The only soldiers who were targeted were non Muslims.
And they were attacked by a radical Muslim.
George Bush has been out of office for 11 nearly 11 months but he went to visit the wounded.
Maybe Obama had a tee time that kept him from paying a visit…

A Party Of One
Oct 31, 2009 Political
Apparently that is as many as you need to get minority legislation passed in favor of yourself, so you can feel entitled and good about yourself, and as I understand it, this is necessary to life- it’s probably a “right”, right? I mean, if feeling good about yourself isn’t a right, it should be, because we are a minority, and we are entitled.
What bullcrap- nowadays, we have been hijacked by a plethora of “minorities” or “oppressed” peoples, each with their own litany of complaints and demands, like a spoiled child who needs his backside warmed to remind him that he is NOT the center of the universe.
This used to be the country where the majority ruled- because it makes sense to go in the direction that the most people are headed. But we are compassionate people. We have, in the past, accommodated others who might not be of the same faith (other than Christian), of the same dietary needs, people who are, let’s face it, the minority. These are people who make the tapestry that is America much richer for their contributions.
But in recent times- say the last twenty- five years or so, we have bent over backwards to assist others in assimilation into this society, with the aim that they would begin to conform more to the majority in behavior.
Instead, we have begat a segment of society that does not care to assimilate, and doesn’t want to compromise, as if it is they, and not us , who are in the majority. What arrogance on their part. Here’s an example:
The lovely-looking restaurant and bar The Breslin begins lunch service tomorrow, and co-owner Ken Friedman (The Spotted Pig) is planning on serving alcohol despite objections from the Masjid Ar-Rahman mosque across the street. Earlier this month the mosque’s leaders called a meeting with Friedman at The Ace Hotel, where The Breslin is located, and asked, “Can you move the bar?” Friedman’s response makes us want to hurry over to The Breslin right now for a dram of Laphroaig to show our support (and drown out the voices):
I said, “This is the United States of America and we’ll do whatever the f*ck we want.” He said the mosque had suggested it couldn’t control the behavior of “a few bad eggs”; i.e., we could get a brick through our window.
gothamist.com
These muslims sincerely believe that our citizens should conform to their standards- what gross stupidity on their part, but it does illustrate how horribly skewed our society has become when these types of “entitled” spoiled brats actually think they can do this. Our compassion at this point begins to dry up when confronted by supercilious attitudes such as these.
Friedman notified police of the threat, but just to show he’s not a hard-hearted man, that it’s not all dollars and cents, he agreed to put a curtain over the windows so devout Muslims wouldn’t be corrupted by the sight of infidel inebriation. But the curtain hasn’t arrived yet, so over the weekend he actually taped paper over the windows to hide a gay wedding. A volunteer at the mosque says city law forbids serving liquor within 200 feet of a place of worship and that “not more than 200 feet is between the mosque and the bar.”
But Ace Hotel developer Andrew Zobler tells The Observer, “The law is clear that in order for that to apply it has to be an exclusively dedicated house of worship, and at their space they have both residences and a restaurant, so basically, because of those uses the law allowed there to be a bar within 200 feet. Everyone was aware of that when the liquor license was granted.” And Friedman adds, “They can threaten, but they can’t really stop us.” Yeah, heh, what are these devout, pissed-off Muslims gonna do?
gothamist.com
What are they going to do indeed? One never knows, but the greater question is who the hell do they think they are? Granted, I would never think of wandering into their mosque sipping a bottle of Bushmills Black label (although I have heard that it is a rather out of this world experience when you sip enough), because I do care somewhat about their sensibilities- at least enough to be polite, but when spoiled people try and dictate their whims to the majority, they begin to act like children in need of discipline, or worse, like liberals.
The solution to either is the same- slap the snot out of them- it will set them on the road to sanity, and in twenty years or so, after they have grown, they will thank you for that guidance.
And perhaps they will have a mature outlook with which they deal with people.
And, for God’s sake not whine so much about non existent “rights”.
If you want rights, look in the Constitution.

Why Don’t They Send The Muslims Back To The Desert?
Mar 10, 2009 Political
I know it will not be a popular position among the liberals who think that if we all hold hands and sing songs the world will get along just fine. I am sure that the erroneous screams of racist will reverberate (Muslim is NOT a race dunderheads) but I care not. All the moonbattery aside, the issue is really the infiltration of radical Muslims into the Western world.
They come to our countries and then they protest us and trump up phony accusations in order to slowly advance sharia. They are terrible guests who think that because a country has been good enough to let them in, they own the place.
In England the leeches are moving in and getting their way in imposing their will. They can marry up to four women and then soak the taxpayers for welfare. God help you if you try to interfere or say something.
A UK military unit returned from duty in Iraq only to be met by a bunch of Muzzies protesting them and calling them baby killers. If those people had not appeared as Middle Eastern I would have sworn they were the filthy hippies that protested the Vietnam war in the 60s.
These cretins were in the UK protesting that country’s soldiers. How stinking rude can a group of people be? It would be one thing if they were in their own countries but they are guests in the UK. Yes, I know some could have been citizens but they (or their ancestors) had to get there somehow. The UK should round up all these malcontents and send them back from where they came.
Send every last stinking one of them on military aircraft manned by the soldiers they protested. If these animals are so concerned for Iraq then send them to Iraq. Just land and drop them off in the desert and tell them to start walking. If they cause trouble then shoot them.
It seems like everyday I read about some Muslim who is upset about what someone said or did. People can’t eat pork in schools or workplaces because of them. Women are treated as second class citizens in the workplace. They demand special rights and too often they get them.
I want to make it clear. I don’t give a rodent’s derriere if they do not like pork, or dogs or if they expect women to be covered and to be treated like property. This is the United States and we don’t play that way. If they do not like it they can get in line behind all the other people in line to kiss my…
Now, I know Muslims who are citizens or who are otherwise here legally and they act like human beings. They do not expect people to change for them and they demonstrate mutual respect. One guy at the gas station (sounds like a bad Biden story) and I were talking and he said we should go to Iran and “kick his a$$” in a discussion about Ahmadinejad.
The problem is, there are too few like this and too many who think that they have a right to impose their will and to act like they own the place. These are the radicals and there are far too many of them.
Here is how the rule should be. If you are here and you protest us over what happens in a Muslim country then you get shipped out. If you complain about pork, dogs, alcohol, tobacco or any other thing that is not acceptable in your culture then you get a one way ticket out of here.
This is our country and you either live in it according to our rules or you get OUT.
Trust me when I say that we will not miss you.
As for our troops and those of the coalition. Dip your bullets in pig grease and let them know that is what you do.
I hate radical Muslims.

As Expected, Muslim World Cries About Attack
Dec 28, 2008 Political
The nation of Israel has had enough, at least at this time, of the daily rockets, accompanied by mortars, landing in their country. Hamas has been attacking Israel for quite some time and continued rocket attacks during what was generously called a cease fire. After that cease fire expired Hamas ratcheted up the rocket and mortar fire. Israel warned that it would retaliate and it did.
Hundreds of people have been killed and though there is no way of telling how many are non combatants, it is likely that a large number are the people engaged in the attacks are the bad guys because Israel is using precision guided weaponry. There will certainly be innocent people who die as a result of the attack especially since the cowards in Hamas set up their rocket launchers in residential areas. These cowards use women and children as shields to protect them. What a way for a so called man to make a statement.
Iran’s Supreme Leader issued a decree calling for all Muslims to fight Israel and he had harsh words for Muslim countries that have remained relatively silent in the matter. This is typical of the Muslim world. They cause a problem and then when they get slapped around they piss and moan about it. They act as if their acts were totally justified under the edicts of the Koran and that anyone who retaliates is wrong for doing so. This is especially true in the case of Israel because many in the Muslim world do not recognize Israel as a legitimate state.
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran said that Israel’s actions demonstrated its weakness. I imagine the sorties of planes destroying anything hostile and leveling all that Hamas once controlled is the new definition of weakness.
Now, if we accept this as true what does it say about Muslims in general? They strap bombs on and kill themselves and innocent people. They kill people who are truly innocent and they have no regard for human life whatsoever. These animals also strap bombs on women and children and “martyr” them.
This, my friends, is a true sign of weakness. Notice that it is never the people in charge who strap on the bombs. It is not Mahmoud Ahmadinejad with a bomb vest on killing himself for the greater good. It is not the various so called religious leaders who give their lives in the name of a child molesting prophet. No, they strap bombs on the illiterate and on women and children as well as those who are retarded. What kind of men would do this. In fact, who would call them men?
The outcry from Iran is nothing new or unusual. This country whines every time some Muslim neighbor gets slapped around regardless of the circumstances.
Only in the barbaric Muslim world can leaders praise suicide bombers who blow up planes, trains, and buildings killing untold numbers of people and then decry legitimate military action. Action, I might add, that is justified based upon continued attacks by Muslims.
Screw Iran and the Muslim world. Israel needs to continue this operation until every last dirty dog Muslim involved is killed. Israel cannot bow to international pressure or the sock puppets in the UN and stop its response because some call it disproportionate or say it was unjustified. If they were not calling for an end to the rocket and mortar attacks they certainly have no right to call for an end to the response.
Let Israel handle its issues and deal with this accordingly. If they can do away with Hamas and any other bad guy in the region then perhaps the Muslims will leave them alone.
If not, then Israel can continue attacking one aggressor at a time until they are all roaming around hell looking for Mohammad.
