Even though the article points out that Hizbullah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah doesn’t think much of Obama’s changeiness, he sure loves the word racist!

Hizbullah leader Sheikh Hassan Nasrallah on Tuesday lashed out at Israel, calling Israelis “racist war criminals” and warning that Hizbullah was “stronger than ever.” He also expressed skepticism regarding US President-elect Barack Obama’s promises of change.

Nasrallah referred to this week’s United Nations interfaith conference in New York, which will be attended by Saudi King Abdullah and President Shimon Peres. He called on Arab and Muslim nations to prevent the participation of Peres or any other Israeli dignitaries, who, he said, are “racist war criminals.”

So now we know that the favorite word of the Obama campaign, his supporters, and the Compliant Media has gained favor in the terrorist community. They are very brave people

Hizbullah members march during a rally marking Hizbullah Martyr’s Day in the southern suburb of Dahiyeh, Lebanon, Tuesday.

Great picture caption from ye olde AP, eh? Considering these brave souls are apparently marching inside.

Anyhow, is Arab a race? How about Jewish? I wish these people would get it straight, find a dictionary. Of course, when Lefties call me bad names for going after The One’s policies, I’m just going to call them racists.

Without comment: Single mother on benefits is moved into £1m five-bedroom house - funded by the taxpayer

A mother-of-five claiming benefits is living in a detached home worth £1million ($1.554 million) - with taxpayers helping fund her £25,000 ($38,884) annual rent.

The luxury five-bedroom home with two sitting rooms, a conservatory and a double garage is being paid for with housing benefits handed out by her local council.

Situated in a smart north London street, the £1million home is out of the price range of most families in the UK. The average house price in Britain is £224,064 ($348,370).

Nigerian single mother Omowunmi Odia moved her family into the home two weeks ago and last night said she was pleased to be living there - although she criticised the large house for having a small bedrooms.

Just spreadin’ the wealth around.

Interesting. For a Party that has complained about the economy and how bad it is for the middle and lower classes, they sure don’t have a problem asking for money. Text of the email below the More tag

Hope! Change! Looking forward, not back! Changing the landscape of Washington! A new way of doing business! Obama’s asking you to Believe in his ability to bring real change to Washington. The kind of change that brings us back to the disasterous wall between law enforcement and intelligence (via Patterico)

As he prepares to take office, President-elect Barack Obama is relying on a small team of advisers who will lead his transition operation and help choose the members of a new Obama administration. Following is part of a series of profiles of potential members of the administration.

Name: Jamie Gorelick

Being considered for: Attorney general

Carries as baggage: Her work at Fannie Mae, which had to be bailed out by the government in September as part of a $200 billion deal. Ms. Gorelick left the company just as it was coming under attack for huge accounting failures. She has also drawn criticism for her role at the Justice Department, in which she allegedly created an intelligence “wall” that hindered counterterrorism agents in the years before the Sept. 11 attacks.

There is no “alleged” about it, NY Times, which also takes the time to take a snarky shot at “Conservative bloggers” who “have already begun trying to derail Ms. Gorelick’s possible nomination as attorney general, pointing to her experiences at both Fannie Mae and the Sept. 11 commission.” Gee, ya think there is a reason for that, Grey Lady?

Welcome to the freak show, president elect Obama!

Will there be disclosure of UFO files under the Obama administration? By Dan Bacher

If there was ever a chance to disclose the truth about the massive UFO cover up by the U.S. national security state since 1947, it could come under the incoming Obama presidential administration.

John Podesta, chief of Obama’s transition team and Clinton’s Chief of Staff from 1998 to 2001, has been a longtime advocate of openness in government and a strong supporter of the release of UFO documents by the U.S. In a ground breaking news conference at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C. with investigative reporter Leslie Kean in 2002, he urged the federal government to “open the books” on government UFO investigations.

“I think it’s time to open the books on questions that have remained in the dark on the question of government investigations of UFOs,” said Podesta. “It’s time to find out what the truth really is that’s out there. We ought to do it because it’s right, we ought to do it because the American people, quite frankly, can handle the truth and we ought to do it because it’s the law.” (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j9ttSXYwZsg)

I wonder if Barry will add this to his official Office of the President Elect site?

Lawyer Stephen Bassett of the Paradigm Research Group (PRG) is now spearheading a national political campaign, the “Million Fax on Washington” campaign, to pressure Obama to release UFO files and “end the UFO Truth Embargo.” Bassett, in an interview this week on the George Noory radio show, expressed strong optimism about the possibility of the opening of long-hidden UFO documents under an Obama administration, particularly when an advocate of UFO document disclosure like John Podesta is heading his transition team.

Barry and the rest of the elected Democrats will now get to feel the full power of the fever swamps, something they have mostly avoided for the past 8 years. Buckle up, campers, this ride is going to be a hoot!

Let’s see: we had the biggest two days drop since 1987 on Wall Street, occuring the two days after That One was elected. On the flip side, you might want to pick up some stock for companies such as Walther USA, H&K, Smith and Wesson, Glock, Baretta, Browning, and others who manufacture guns. Can’t wait to see their earnings reports for the 4th quarter!

• Fears of gun restrictions trigger increased sales
• Fears of a Dem crackdown lead to boom in gun sales
• Enthusiasts Flock To Buy Guns After Obama’s Win
• Election ignites locals to purchase firearms
• Gun Sales Up in Kern County Since Obama’s Win
• In Fort Worth, Obama’s election prompts run on guns and ammunition

And locally here in Raleigh

Barack Obama said he would improve the economy. Turns out he already has, at least in one retail niche: gun sales.

Starting in the days before the election, gun shops across the state have been mobbed by buyers who fear that Obama and a larger Democratic majority in Congress will restrict firearm sales.

Many were stocking up on things such as assault rifles, high-capacity magazines and handguns that they think would be the most likely targets of new laws, though practically everything related to shooting has been selling more quickly.

As I mentioned yesterday, I went and applied for my handgun permit. And the Wake County Sheriff’s office was packed with people of all ages and races. There was a little old blue hair, and she was applying for 3 licences. Heh! Do I need a gun? No. I approve of ownership of most (it is certain bullets that I am against, as they are not “arms”), but I have never felt a need. I will not keep it in my nightstand 10+1. I may or may not get my concealed permit in time. But, I would rather get one now before the Democrats hose our Right to own one.

Do I think it will happen right away? No. But, I also do not think it will be big, sweeping legislation. A bite here, a bite there, and soon the flea has eaten the buffalo.

And down in Athens, Georgia, a few people freaked out over a sign.

Even after all these years of following the AGW issue, I still find it humorous that the Believers still do little more then try and draw attention to the issue

Willamette University students and other cyclists will bike to the state Capitol today to promote the fight against global warming. The bike ride will start at 2 p.m. on the university campus.

Yeah, that should solve the problem! Notice that none of these groups every really do anything such as raise money to go to fixing the issue? Even The Goracle is doing little more then going for a collective movement (which should be scary in its own right)

Former V-P and Nobel Peace laureate Al Gore told an audience at the Web 2.0 Summitin San Francisco on Friday that we need to use the latest web tools to organize a social movement in order to help rescue the earth from climate change. Gore, who has been an adviser to Google, served on the board of directors for Apple, and is currently a cleantech venture partner with Kleiner Perkins, said fighting climate change will need the same type of collective movement driven by the web that helped elect Barack Obama.

Granted, the collectivist movement that helped elect DeID* Obama worked. But, there is a vast difference between electing a politician and fixing an issue which they claim is mostly, or completely, Mankind’s fault. But, in reality, the whole AGW issue is there for four reasons: something for the Left to combat the military support by the right, as a way of getting people to join together to follow the Leftist movement, to make some money, and to control the world wide economy.

Despite Obama’s attempt to shift his position on gun rights - OK, he flat out was lying about what he really believes - quite a few people aren’t buying it. Instead, they are buying something else

Sales of handguns, rifles and ammunition have surged in the last week, according to gun store owners around the nation who describe a wave of buyers concerned that an Obama administration will curtail their right to bear arms.

Mr. Nelson said sales at his store had risen about 30 percent since Mr. Obama declared his candidacy. “People are concerned about overreaching legislation from Washington,” he said. “They are educating themselves on the Internet.”

In Colorado, would-be gun buyers set a one-day record last Saturday with the highest number of background check requests in a 24-hour period, according to figures from the Colorado Bureau of Investigation.

Based on Obama’s actual voting record and talk prior to becoming the Democrat presidential nominee, people have a right to be worried. Looks like Obama’s comment about people clinging to their guns and Bibles our of fear has become a self fulfilling prophesy. Only it is Obama who brings the fear.

Of course, it might be dangerous writing the same thing in a few months, since it will probably be considered a hate crime.

More: Just put in my application for a handgun permit. Only those with good moral character need apply in North Carolina, so, safe to say not many Liberals will be approved, especially since there is also a clause about mental illness. LOTS of people applying in Wake County, and there were plenty of people at a gun shop in Raleigh looking specifically at hand guns. Personally, I am leaning towards the Walther P22. Only a .22 Caliber, but, not expensive, and fits my hand very well.

Can’t ya feel the love?

Harvey Korman - Rec. this if you think it’s time for PELOSI and REID to be replaced.

Pelosi “warning” Obama to govern from the middle (read: capitulate to the right whenever possible)?

Reid “pondering” taking away Traitorman’s committee chairmanship?

These two are completely feckless at best and at worst they actually try to stifle progress. If President Obama is to get as much done as he can, it’s time for a change of leadership in Congress. These two have had their shot and gotten nothing done, and now they’re already preparing to help Obama get nothing done.

Enough!

A short lived marriage, eh? Lots and lots of kicks on this one. Most want the two gone. Here we go!

Nope, that title is not a joke. And it is not that far off.

Charging that principles of Islamic law are being introduced in the United States by stealth, critics on Thursday will protest outside a U.S. Treasury Department seminar on shari’a-complaint finance.

Although this is not the department’s first “Islamic Finance 101” seminar, it comes amid a new push by Muslim figures in recent weeks to promote Islamic finance as a response to the debt-fueled global financial crisis.

Controversial Sunni scholar Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, a leading advocate of shari’a-complaint finance (SCF), told a conference in Qatar last month that Muslims should take the opportunity provided by the crisis to replace capitalism with an Islamic financial system.

Now, people will go, so what, they are just looking at it.

Islamic financial products are those that comply with shari’a, the Islamic legal code associated with notorious punishments including the death penalty for apostasy, and stoning and amputations for other offenses.

In essence, SCF bans usury – the collection and payment of interest – and discourages heavy borrowing.

Other then the penalties, that does actually look like a system that the Democrats would prefer. Except if you are rich. Then re-education camps for you! And, in Liberal World, if you get a pay check, you are rich.

Of course, this is the way Islamisism works: creeping in to a country till all of a sudden people start realizing late what is happening. See England for a good example. Multiculturalism and politicalcorrectness enable this, as subtle and tiny steps are implemented. Islamic religious schools get a bit more radical every year, Muslims demand the removal of certain items from public view, they start calling for sharia law in their communities. And it is liberal/progressive policy which allows it.

Welcome to the next 4 years.
