Big Government : Sherrod Blames NAACP for Firing

Wed, 21 Jul 2010 04:38:31 +0000

There are probably at least a dozen people in this story who have behaved in a more offensive manner than Shirley Sherrod, IMHO. Starting with Ben Jealous, Cheryl Cook, Tom Vilsack and Barack Obama. These people would love to make it all about Shirley Sherrod. What better way to deflect attention from their own bad behavior?

Your servant here, he has been told to say it clear, to say it cold: It's over, it ain't going any further And now the wheels of heaven stop you feel the devil's riding crop Get ready for the future: it is murder When they said REPENT REPENT I wonder what they meant When they said REPENT REPENT I wonder what they meant When they said REPENT REPENT I wonder what they meant -- Leonard Cohen (The Future)

There is also a website named WizBang Politics listed in the Scrappleface Blogroll (left-hand column of your screen), which I have made note of in the past.

ScrappleFace : Scott Ott on CNN Video Reacting to Obama Finance Reforms

Tue, 15 Sep 2009 18:11:35 +0000

"[W]hen the president says he welcomes substantive new ideas, he means that if you have the nerve to offer any ideas -- as Whole Foods' CEO, John Mackey, did in The Wall Street Journal last month -- his allies will attempt to destroy your business and reputation. When the president says everyone must chip in and sacrifice, he means more than 95 percent of small businesses won't have to chip in and sacrifice. That's good. But consider his plan a small-business generator, because larger businesses are sure to be small in no time (and many small businesses have a new incentive to stay that way)." More.

Yes, that was the article I was trying to link to. I'm not sure how I managed to mess up the link. I usually check links after I post them, but this time I didn't -

If you plan on listening to Obama's latest sales pitch tonight, keep this in mind -- Listening to a Liar . The most important thing about what anyone says are not the words themselves but the credibility of the person who says them. The words of convicted swindler Bernie Madoff were apparently quite convincing to many people who were regarded as knowledgeable and sophisticated. If you go by words, you can be led into anything.

Republican Congressman Calls on Jones to Resign A Republican congressman is calling for the resignation of President Obama's "green jobs" adviser over new revelations about his past affiliations and statements. Rep. Mike Pence of Indiana ... also called on Obama to suspend appointment of additional so-called "czars" until Congress has a chance to examine the background and responsibilities of such individuals, as well as to determine the constitutionality of such appointments. ------------ Excuse me ? You mean, Van Jones is still there ?

Just how many Screen-names does "WhizBang" use, anyway?

Well. well. well!!! Personally, I think "WhizBang" should try "having some respect for ?(his/her/its)? fellow human beings", first! It's one thing to purloin the idea for your Screen-name from the Scrappleface Blogroll ( see item #42 - "WizBang Politics" ), and it's another thing to steal the personal description from another commenter's Intense Debate Profile! I've heard that imitation is the the sincerest form of flattery, but - thanks but no thanks, whoever/whatever you are. Larceny works best when it goes unnoticed, "WhizBang"! Just for the record, I registered with Intense Debate back in January - before it was even in use on this blog - "WhizBang" registered a week ago. You do the math -

Speaking of stupidity, has everyone here heard about the Whole Foods boycott? If you haven't, you should Google it. What a farce! If you are not in 1000% agreement with the left, you are their ENEMY! So much for "post-partisan" America -

The important question to ask is, how will Avigdor Lieberman (leader of the Beiteinu party) react to this? Livni has already said, "I have no intention of being in a unity government headed by Netanyahu." The election results were not decisive; this may result in compromises that satisfy no one.

It is very sad. At one time LGF was an important site in the anti-jihad struggle. It has now become a personality cult. CJ cannot and will not tolerate any viewpoints other than his own.

Jihad Watch : Dhimmi Watch: Saudi judge sentences pregnant gang-rape victim to 100 lashes for adultery

Here is a Hadith on this matter: "There came to him (the Holy Prophet) a woman from Ghamid and said: Allah’s Messenger, I have committed adultery, so purify me. He (the Holy Prophet) turned her away. On the following day she said: Allah’s Messenger, Why do you turn me away? . . . By Allah, I have become pregnant. He said: Well, if you insist upon it, then go away until you give birth to (the child). When she was delivered she came with the child (wrapped) in a rag and said: Here is the child whom I have given birth to. He said: Go away and suckle him until you wean him. When she had weaned him, she came to him (the Holy Prophet) with the child who was holding a piece of bread in his hand. She said: Allah's Apostle, here is he as I have weaned him and he eats food. He (the Holy Prophet) entrusted the child to one of the Muslims and then pronounced punishment. And she was put in a ditch up to her chest and he commanded people and they stoned her" (Sahih Muslim, vol. 3, book 17, no. 4206). http://www.jihadwatch.org/dhimmiwatch/archives/00...
