Hope and change but not for Iran

Hope And Change — But Not For Iran

By CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER | Posted Thursday, June 18, 2009 4:20 PM PT

Millions of Iranians take to the streets to defy a theocratic dictatorship that, among its other finer qualities, is a self-declared enemy of America and the tolerance and liberties it represents. The demonstrators are fighting on their own, but they await just a word that America is on their side.

And what do they hear from the president of the United States? Silence. Then, worse. Three days in, the president makes clear his policy: continued "dialogue" with their clerical masters.

Dialogue with a regime that is breaking heads, shooting demonstrators, expelling journalists, arresting activists. Engagement with — which inevitably confers legitimacy upon — leaders elected in a process that begins as a sham (only four handpicked candidates permitted out of 476) and ends in overt rigging.

Why Letterman's joke can't stand!

David Letterman's crude and rude "joke" at the expense of Sarah Palin's daughter is a sorry reflection of a horrible problem in America and an ongoing criminal cover-up.



What the lecherous late night show host suggested was statutory rape of an under age girl, in the form of a so-called bad joke, which by the way, brought an inappropriate outburst of laughter.

Do we as a collective nation really believe it is something to laugh about - young girls being sexually used and abused by adult men?

Pro-life activist dynamo, Lila Rose, has caught America's largest abortion provider -Planned Parenthood - in numerous stings, revealing they routinely cover-up for the rapist.



This criminal enterprise which covers up crimes, while they are required by law to report the abuse of children, is unconscionable and while the problem is under the microscope, Bill O'Reilly ought to use his considerable clout to expose these thugs for what they do for $$$.

The young girl's baby is killed by the PP hit man and she is sent back to her rapist for more abuse until she gets impregnated again for another trip through the "family planning" revolving door.

This whole sorry mess was revealed to Colorado's AG, John Suthers in 2005
and Colorado Right to Life was told that nothing could be done about the taped recording of Planned Parenthood being caught by Life Dynamics telling the young woman to call back and not mention the age of the adult male/criminal, responsible for her condition.

When is enough, enough???

Prez BHO, You scare me!

Lou Pritchett, a former VP at Procter and Gamble, penned this letter to the New York Times. They declined to publish it. It has since been circulated widely on the internet.

Dear President Obama:

You are the thirteenth President under whom I have lived and unlike any of the others, you truly scare me.

You scare me because after months of exposure, I know nothing about you.

You scare me because I do not know how you paid for your expensive Ivy League education and your upscale lifestyle and housing with no visible signs of support.

You scare me because you did not spend the formative years of youth growing up in America and culturally you are not an American.

You scare me because you have never run a company or met a payroll.

You scare me because you have never had military experience, thus don't understand it at its core.

You scare me because you lack humility and 'class', always blaming others.

You scare me because for over half your life you have aligned yourself with radical extremists who hate America and you refuse to publicly denounce these radicals who wish to see America fail.

You scare me because you are a cheerleader for the 'blame America' crowd and deliver this message abroad.

You scare me because you want to change America to a European style country where the government sector dominates instead of the private sector.

You scare me because you want to replace our health care system with a government controlled one.

You scare me because you prefer 'wind mills' to responsibly capitalizing on our own vast oil, coal and shale reserves.

You scare me because you want to kill the American capitalist goose that lays the golden egg which provides the highest standard of living in the world.

You scare me because you have begun to use 'extortion' tactics against certain banks and corporations.

You scare me because your own political party shrinks from challenging you on your wild and irresponsible spending proposals.

You scare me because you will not openly listen to or even consider opposing points of view from intelligent people.

You scare me because you falsely believe that you are both omnipotent and omniscient.

You scare me because the media gives you a free pass on everything you do.

You scare me because you demonize and want to silence the Limbaughs, Hannitys, O'Relllys and Becks who offer opposing, conservative points of view.

You scare me because you prefer controlling over governing.

Finally, you scare me because if you serve a second term I will probably not feel safe in writing a similar letter in 8 years.

Twilight Zone Time

This coverage, from the Wichita Eagle, of George Tiller's funeral service and eulogy is a classic demonstration of the clash of world views that dominate what increasingly appears to be post Christian America.


Tiller's son, Maury, was the only member of the family to refer to the shooting.

"I struggle with the manner in which he was welcomed into heaven," he said.

But he was comforted by memories of the last weekend, when Tiller spent time with his children.

After that, he said, "I believe that God decided, 'You have done everything I asked a person to do here on earth. Now I will show the world what a loving, compassionate, courageous, selfless man you are.' And so it happened."

Boulder late term abortionist, Warren Hern served as pall bearer.



"Floral arrangements towered around him, and his portrait sat on an easel on the left side of the altar near a large wreath that said, "Trust Women."

No back alley abortions! Never

"Despite operating without a proper permit and putting women's health at risk, Amie Newman of the pro-abortion RH Reality Check blog applauded Carhart, saying he is "uplifting, positive and based in respect for women as human beings."

She called Carhart's continuing late-term and partial-birth abortions a "circle of care and compassion."

Secret Billionaires Club Seeks Population Control

THE NEW WORLD DISORDER

Secret billionaire club seeks population control
Gates, Rockefeller, Turner, Oprah, Buffett, Soros, Bloomberg attend meeting

Bill Gates

WASHINGTON – Some of the richest men and women in the world met secretly recently in New York to conspire on using their vast wealth to bring the world's population growth under control.

The meeting included some of the biggest names in the "billionaires club," according to the London Times – Bill Gates, David Rockefeller, Ted Turner, Oprah Winfrey, Warren Buffett, George Soros and Michael Bloomberg.

The meeting at the home of Sir Paul Nurse, a British Nobel Prize-winning biochemist and president of Rockefeller University, was the inspiration of Gates and took place three weeks ago.

"The informal afternoon session was so discreet that some of the billionaires' aides were told they were at 'security briefings,'" the Times reported today.

Stacy Palmer, editor of the Chronicle of Philanthropy, speculated that the secrecy surrounding the meeting may have been due to concern that "they don’t want to be seen as a global cabal."

According to the Times, the billionaires were each given 15 minutes to present their favorite cause. Over dinner they discussed how they might settle on an "umbrella cause" that could harness their interests. Taking their cue from Gates, the report said, they agreed population control was the No. 1 issue.

Flanders Fields

In Flanders Fields
By: Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae, MD (1872-1918)
Canadian Army


In Flanders Fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.

Unparalleled Brilliance!

On Obama, blacks and Jews

Exclusive: Alan Keyes likens prez's actions to murderous, utopian 20th century ideologies

Posted: May 22, 2009

By Alan Keyes

The 20th century could well be called the century of Holocaust. I think it had something to do with the powerful assertion of godless self-sufficiency that characterized its most deadly and infamous ideologies. The communists, the fascists, the Nazis all have this in common: that they fancy themselves creators of new worlds of human possibility, willing servants of a fantasy in which the future, wrought by human hands, will advance beyond God's limited vision of human nature to birth before the universe the superman, the everlasting Reich, the workers' paradise, the endlessly perfected revolution of hope, change and unimpeded progress. Obtusely brushing aside the intrinsic contradiction between unlimited being and the objective possibilities of existence, these fantasies of human pridefulness have ended, all of them, in murderous nightmares. They expanded the possibilities of humanity all right, but only to the extent of adding hitherto unimagined horrors.

As they are part of a people who, on account of their very existence as a people, experienced the full brunt of this murderous pride, it has always seemed incongruous to me that so many Jewish poets (using that word in its broadest sense to include all manner of creative artists) and intellectuals seem at ease with the utopian delusions of the left. According to the biblical account, the will to assimilate our own destruction is one of the principles of our nature, one of the reasons we are as we are. Just as Eve reached for the deadly fruit, so we are inclined to surrender to the siren song of future godhood that distracts us from the voice and presence of God within. Because, in a sense beyond our rational understanding, we are already what we seek to become; the urge to realize our freedom in action makes it harder for us to accept our freedom in fact. Though time and again we experience, or inflict upon others, the mortal consequences of our vain ambition, we will not let go of it.

In this sense, sincere Christian belief admonishes the pride of every non-Jewish people, for whom it represents the truth that they are not the people chosen by God to be the earthly forbears of the Son of Man. But just as it challenges their pride, so it challenges the humility of the Jews. In their different ways both Jews and non-Jews are forced to confront the responsibility it implies. But inasmuch as it is easier to accept a recognized boundary than to constitute and accept it, the Jewish responsibility may be an obligation harder to understand or to forgive. Why did God choose them to epitomize the sacrifice He makes of Himself for the sake of our existence? Why would it be for them to bear the wounds He takes upon Himself so that all may be made whole?

In its true consequence for the heart, I imagine that the experience of the Holocaust would mean sensitivity so attuned to human suffering and injustice that every such infliction upon anyone, anywhere would resonate within and break your heart anew. My Christian understanding sees this as the experience of Christ upon the cross, and therefore as a possibility made manifest first and especially in Jewish flesh and blood. But if Christ's crucifixion represents a Jewish experience, so too does his agony in the Garden, his moment of longing for a fate other than sacrifice, in which acceptance of that fate coexists in the instant with the will to push it aside, and by that rejection make for himself another fate devoid of suffering and death.

As there are some Christians who linger in the moment of crucifixion, so I imagine there are Jews who live in the moment of doubt about God's will, when we are apt to be transfixed by our own vision of peace, happiness and hope. However that may be, there are certainly similarities between the temptations of that moment, and the seductive allure of utopian ideologies that brush aside God's intention for human life in pursuit of a godlike perfection of human will and freedom. America appears to be in the midst of such temptation now, as it stands preoccupied with a man whose words promise hope and a better world, but whose deeds echo the stolid disregard for innocent life that characterized the murderous ideologies of the 20th century. The incongruity of this moment appears especially in this: that he could not have achieved his goal without the support of rich and influential people from the very community indelibly scarred by the 20th century's inhuman ambitions. Lamentably, I believe that their reward for this support will be policies that usher in the destruction of Israel and greatly encourage and strengthen the deadly aims of those in the Islamic world whose lust for its destruction has led them to ingest and act upon some of the foulest ordure left by the Nazis' dysentery of hatred for the Jewish people.

Pro-life Woman Warrior!

What a privilege to have been in the presence of Monica Migliorino Miller at Notre Dame's pro-life witness and protests over the weekend. This bold PhD professor and theologian last year searched the dumpster behind abortionist Alberto Hodari's clinic in Detroit. Her website Pro Life Society chronicles the sorry saga of children killed in the womb and scraped into surgical towels.

All kinds of little hands and feet were retrieved and subsequently Father Pavone of Priests for Life presided over a funeral and proper burial for these invisible children.

One can read this Spero News article on this horrific story or view her video, "Requiem for the Disappeared" on her site.

Dr. Miller created a photo essay of her findings and was compelled to show the invisible ones to the graduates and their families who were about to hear the most pro child killing president in history. Her boldness resulted in her arrest
along with a nun and a senior citizen gentleman who said his conscience demanded that he join her.





It is with great admiration that I show these photos I was privileged to take of this amazing individual and champion of the innocent pre-born!

Notre Dame "Permanent Collaborator Status"!!!

Ok. So now Notre Dame has "Permanent Collaborator Status"!

Not sure anyone will care.

But.

We might still use this to call attention to the dereliction of duty of Notre Dame president, Father Jenkins, and others
who have allowed this travesty.

Of course, The Collaborators Project, might have garnered more attention were it not for "World Can't Wait" - front group "Abortion on Demand - Without Apology"!

These intensely deceived individuals need a hearty dose of Theologyonline!

ROE SPEAKS!

Asked what she'd say to President Obama if given the opportunity, McCorvey replied, "I can't talk like that anymore. I'm a Christian."

Poor Baby!!!

Waaah!

Bloomberg On Hot Seat For Alleged Discrimination

Over 80 female pregnant employees of Bloomberg L.P. claim the company treated them unfairly.

BY STEPHANIE BARISH | wpix.com

NEW YORK (WPIX)


Mayor Michael Bloomberg was grilled under oath Thursday by federal officials in connection with a discrimination suit alleging the financial news company he founded treated pregnant women unfairly, according to a report in the New York Post.

The deposition began at 9 a.m. Midtown and were expected to last several hours, according to lawyers working on the case.

On behalf of more than 80 female employees, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in March filed a complaint against Bloomberg L.P. alleging the company took part in a pattern of discrimination against pregnant women who took maternity leave.

In the report, the EEOC says the company "is responsible for the creation of the systemic, top-down culture of discrimination which exists within Bloomberg, and...has been sued in the past...by several female executives who have alleged in their lawsuits that a hostile environment exists for women at Bloomberg."

Bloomberg, who founded the financial business, is not a defendant in the case. Bloomberg L.P. has denied the allegations.

According to the lawsuit, the apparent discrimination at hand took place after Bloomberg left the company for his mayoral run in 2001. However, defense lawyers claims the company's management--including Bloomberg himself--should be held responsible.

In one complaint, Bloomberg allegedly told a top saleswoman, "Kill it," after she announced she was pregnant, the New York Post reports.

Torture v Fetal Torture - Which is Worse?

This is for all the hypocrites who worry that the evil individuals who attacked America, killing more than 3,000 citizens, have been mis-treated!





Why the deafening silence over the dismemberment torture of the "least among us"??





"13 For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother’s womb.

14 I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; Marvelous are Your works, And that my soul knows very well.

15 My frame was not hidden from You, When I was made in secret, And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

16 Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me, When as yet there were none of them."

Deconstructing Fr. Jenkins

"The President’'s visit to Notre Dame can help lead to broader engagement on issues of importance to the country and of deep significance to Catholics.

Ultimately, I hope that the conversations and the good will that will come from this day will contribute to closer relations between Catholics and public officials who make decision on matters of human life and human dignity."

If abortionists kill your future students, who will "engage" in the matters of deep significance to Catholics?


"At this crossroads, we must be a place where people of good will are received with charity, are able to speak, be heard, and engage in responsible and reasoned dialogue."

And of course, those individuals killed by abortionists won't ever be received with charity, or be able to speak, or be heard - or engage in responsible or reasoned dialogue !!!!


"As the first African-American holder of this office, he has accelerated our country’s progress in overcoming the painful legacy of slavery and segregation. He’s a remarkable figure in American history and I look forward to welcoming him to Notre Dame."

It is truly tragic that Mr. Obama pretends not to know that the founder of America's largest abortion provider, Margaret
Sanger, was a eugenics proponent and as such a racist. Her legacy is nearly 1,500 black babies killed in the U.S. every day. He betrays the black race and LEARN has statistics that are chilling.




The presidents would be wise to read Psalm 11.

Notre Dame to be given 'Collaborator' status?
Abortion opponents say rescind Obama invitation or else

Posted: May 12, 2009

WorldNetDaily

A pro-life group is warning that the University of Notre Dame may be given its "Collaborators" designation, a mark it reserves for those it considers the worst offenders in the war over abortion, because of its invitation to President Obama to speak at its commencement.

In a letter today to university officials, Leslie Hanks, chief of the Collaborators Project, wrote:

Because Notre Dame has extended the extraordinary honor of speaking at one of America's foremost Catholic colleges to one with such cavalier disregard for the sanctity of life, social tension is increasing exponentially in your community.

Collaborators Project was founded to do precisely that. Our motto is, "No Child Killing with Tranquility."

Another way to honor Moms: Increase social tension!

No child killing with tranquility!!

I missed this year's Mother's day Holiday Home Visit to a Denver abortionist O'Laughlin, but I'm so impressed at those who took time out of their day to remind the neighbors what he does, allowing him to live in that Mc Mansion and park a Mercedes in his drive way.

This activisim is starting to spread and I'm so proud of our friends in Indianapolis who are bringing the truth to abortionist's neighbors there. It is becoming an effective way to shine the light of day on these cockroaches and take abortion from the abstraction of being a "medical procedure" to showing the ugly reality.

And by the way, what could be more priceless than a 6 year old asking a local "law enforcement" official, why he won't arrest the killer?

Here's a word from her lovely Mother:

Price of the average abortion? - $400
- Price of the car driven by an abortionist? - $50,000
- Price of the home bought with blood money? - $300,000
- Price of the look on a policeman’s face when my six year old asks him why he doesn’t arrest the baby-killers? - PRICELESS!

Here is a little clip of Kiralee's bold witness!

And to clarify the sound:

Kiralee: “Excuse me.”

Policeman: “Yes mam.”

Kiralee: “Um, why do you not arrest, um, the baby killers?”

A brief hesitant pause then an unforgettable panicked look appeared on the policeman’s face as he glanced over at me with regret before stumbling over his response. (I was trying to be sneaky while recording on the DL so unfortunately his face is blocked – but trust me, you’ll just have to take my word for it – it was PRICELESS!)

Policeman: “Well… because they have their beliefs, and you guys have yours……….Some people think it’s okay, and some people don’t.”

Kiralee: “Oh, okay…….thank you……………………………..awe…”

Ted Turner: China a Good Example of Population Control, Despite Forced Abortions

Washington, DC (LifeNews.com)

Billionaire broadcast magnate Ted Turner is causing guffaws from observers with his latest comment on family planning in China. He lauded the Asian nation for its population control program and said it was a good example even though it is rife with forced abortions and sterilizations.

During an interview with the Diane Rehm Show gave China as a model for how to handle growing populations.

“We do have the example of China, and they've done it without, uh, draconian, as far as I can see, draconian steps," he said.

Observers of the quote are surprised that Rehm let it go unchallenged and without any mention of the human rights abuses that accompany the Chinese family planning program.

The policy has resulted in epidemics of forced abortions and sterilizations and human rights abuses ranging from job loss and imprisonment to house arrest and threatening family members.

In fact, new reports show the forced abortions have resulted in high infertility rates forced abortions. A new report indicates that has sparked infertility and given rise to an underground network of surrogate mothers.
