Reality Check

I recieved an email from Alan Woody (who used to blog at Woody’s News and Views) that points up much of what is rotten in our society today *sigh*

A Circuit City employee spots some Muslim men behaving suspiciously and notifies the authorities. Turns out the men were terrorist-wannabe’s plotting to attack a US military base and murder military personnel and/or their families. Now the Circuit City employee might be sued [for] “violating constitutional rights or for racial discrimination”! No kidding… the citizen who saved the lives of our troops and their families could be sued for it.

We need to wake up people! The terrorists are using our own system against us and half of us are sitting back and letting them do it while the other half unwittingly (?) helps them. Here’s a reality check that I think everybody should read and pass along:

With Woody, I strongly recommend reading Reality Check: My Two Cents Worth… and passing it on.

Après… le deluge Monday Linkfest

(Yeh, well, I know the quote variously attributed to Louis XV or his mistress, Madame de Pompadour, and in various other forms to many historical persons through the ages is more properly, “Après moi le deluge,” but I meant it as I typed it in the post title. *heh*)

The busiest weekend in some time here at twc is over, but things left hanging fire because of preparations are now demanding my attention, so please supply my day’s reading matter by linking in your best stuff. I did have plenty of blogfodder supplied by events of the past few days, but no time to really develop them here, yet.

THIS is an open trackbacks post. Link to THIS post and track back. 🙂

Happy Blogmothers Day!

I’m more fortunate than most in that I have two Blogmothers who each, in their different ways have “mothered” me in blogging. Carol, Diane: Happy Blogmothers Day! Couldn’t have (well, more like “wouldn’t have”) done this without you.

Note: all mistakes, off-the-wall-weirdness, totally insane rants at twc, etc., are in no way the fault of my blogmoms. They did their best and that’s all you can ask. 😉

Yet Another Posole Recipe

I guess this is the third posole-type variation I’ve posted over the past coupla years. See how it sits with you.

Ingredients:

~8oz of Ancho chile sauce, or red enchilada sauce made with Anaheim peppers, instead.
~1lb. pork loin, in about 1″ cubes
4-6 cups canned white hominy, drained
1 head of cabbage, chopped or shredded (chopped is better, IMO, but it’s your supper :-))
a couple of teaspoons of cayenne pepper (or do without and set a bottle of cayenne-based hot sauce by the places of folks who like it)
3-4 lemons or limes, juiced
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2-4 medium tomatoes, diced (use your favorite “sauce” tomatoes)
water to suit your pot
salt to taste (I prefer juuuust a little on the pork as it is browning)

Procedure:

Brown the pork with the onion and garlic.
Add all the other ingredients except the hominy and cover with water. Simmer for about 30 minutes.
Add the hominy and water as needed and simmer another 30 minutes or more.

Yum.

Blood for Oil

blood_for_oil.jpg

Kinda sorry I only had a cheapo low-rez camera with me this a.m. What you cannot easily discern is that the lower price is for the premium blend of gas… Just one more data point putting the lie to the “blood for oil” Iraq adventure meme. If the goal were to pump oil and bring down prices, then oil would be at an all-time low, because if the American forces were to simply and solely concentrate on securing the Iraqi oil fields and delivery system and leave the tribal and religious squabbles to those who have practiced them so well for millennia, we’d be drowning in excess oil at low prices.

But even that would do little to correct the problem the disparity between lower-priced premium gas and higher-priced “regular” gas pictured above. THAT disparity (as well as the supply problem driving much of the recent gar price increases) is pretty much solely the responsibility of enviroweenies, politicians who listen to enviroweenies (and their Mass Media Podpeople flacks) and all their ilk who have been primarily instrumental in preventing the construction of new refinery facilities for the past 30+ years…

Blame it on the greens (who, if cosmic justice were as swift as it is sure, wouldn’t be green but red and black and blue all over… I can wait. The universe’s Creator will teach them a few lessons, eventually, as He lets them inhabit a hell of their own making.)

Triple Threat Weekend Linkfest

So, this weekend features, Mothers Day, my son’s college graduation and BLOGmothers Day (and you thought I’d forgotten!). While I’m busy with the graduation shindig, Mothers Day (and because of bubba’s graduation, my own mother will be here this weekend–and since she’s a tad on the frail side and in her eighties, now, this is a rare treat) AND honoring at least one blogmother (*s*), feel free to populate my weekend reading list (for when I can steal time away from the festivities) with your posts tracked back to this one all weekend long.

Goin Jeeeeeeeeeeehad

By: Angel

FORT DIX, N.J. – Six Is-lamic militants from Yugoslavia and the Middle East were arrested on charges of plotting to attack the Fort Dix Army post and “kill as many soldiers as possible,”

6 charged with plot on Army post in N.J.
In conversations secretly recorded by an FBI informant over the past year, the men talked about killing in the name of All-ah and attacking U.S. warships that might dock in Philadelphia, according an FBI criminal complaint.

“It doesn’t matter to me whether I get locked up, arrested or get taken away,” a suspect identified ..said in another recorded conversation. “Or I die, it doesn’t matter. I’m doing it in the name of A-llah.”

Another suspect,… was recorded saying: “In the end, when it comes to defending your religion, when someone is trying attacks your religion, your way of life, then you go jih-ad.”

The FBI was tipped off in January 2006 when a shopkeeper alerted agents about a “disturbing” video he had been asked to copy onto a DVD, according to court documents. The video showed 10 men in their early 20s “shooting assault weapons at a firing range … while calling for jihad and shouting in Ar-abic ‘All–ah Ak–bar’ (God is great),” the complaint said.

The description of the suspects as “Isl–amic militants” renewed fears in New Jersey’s Mus–lim community…

“.. a lawyer who represented many of the detainees. “But when the government says ‘Isl–amic militants,’ it sends a message to the public that Is–lam and militancy are synonymous.”

“Don’t equate actions with religion,” he said.

Don’t equate actions with religion?…LOL

Howza bout you stop shrieking Alla-hu Ak-bar as you fly planes into buildings or saw off heads then huh.

Already worried bout N.J.’s Muzlim community are ya..Ya mean the very same N.J. Muzlims in Patterson, who were dancing in the streets after 9/11?
Thought we forgot all bout that didn’t ya Muzlim lawyer?

Rad. Izlam= Hate and Death.

Well at least according to your very own Mu-llahs and the assorted jih-adis who seem to be doing just fine on getting that particular message out.

Geez. The Poconos used to be a honeymoon paradise. Now it’s a terrorist training center. Nice.

Three of the Muzlim poster children who were arrested were here illegally, by the way.
But don’t sweat it y’all. You know, they’re just here to mow lawns, pick lettuce, I mean, err… to commit random acts of terrorism that Americans won’t do.

oh yay. Another terrorist training camp broke ground t’day..oh..in Cherry Hill.
Wouldya lookie here!

Construction of the $1.5 million mos-que will begin………Calling Cherry Hill a “town of faith and tolerance,.. said “what all people want is peace. We’re in a place of peace right now.”
Group breaks ground for Cherry Hill mos-que

‘Course we must thank Clinton who sent the U.S. military into former Yugoslavia to help the good ole Muzlims. They sure have a funny way of expressing gratitude don’t they.

Clinton also paved the way for massive immigration to this country from Bosnia.

In case you were unaware of his “benevolence”..during the 1990s, 40,000 Bosnian Muzlims moved to St. Louis.

Geez. I wonder what percentage are radicalized. Anyone care to do the Math?

So follow the bouncing ball friends.

Milosovic was shooting masses of Muzlims in the head and tossing them in large graves.

America, (the Evil Imperialist Empire) intervenes to stops the ethnic cleansing.

Next thing ya know Yugo-jih-adis come to America and start mass murdering.
I must be worse in math that I thought…cuz that doesn’t add up either.

Well, all I can say is Bravo to the person who tipped the FBI and law enforcement off to the terrorists.
Copying a DVD?..ha.
Like I said before, too bad stupidity isn’t painful.

Then again, wait….the video store owner surely violated the civil rights of these illegal Muzlim immigrant jeehadis by profiling them and then turning them in to the FBI.

Hopefully the CA-IR Bears and their comrade in arms the ACLU will be working on the lawsuit pronto.

See no evil, Hear no evil , Speak no EviL.

6 flying im-ams , 6 Fort Dix terrorist plotters……..
What’s with the Muzlim enamorment of the number 6?

666.
Right. Got it.
Did the math on that one.

As one of the terrorists said:
“when someone is trying attacks your religion, your way of life, then you go jih-ad.”

Join me sweet friends:
Sing it out loud!

Let’s go Jeehadi now.
Everybody’s learnin how.
C’mon an jeehadi with me.
Come on an jeehadi with meeeeeeeeeee!

On a Wonderful Day Like Today…

(Today, I feel like I’m NOT on the set of “The Roar Of The Greasepaint – The Smell Of The Crowd” singing “On a Wonderful Day Like Today”–instead, it’s one of those days when I need to drink a coupla cupsa coffee just to be able to remember where I put my first two cupsa coffee… *heh* Does the news of the weird–AKA the typical antics of politicians *spit*, Mass Media Podpeople, celebtiries *gag*, Islamic savages, enviroweenies and so on help? Surely you jest. Soooo, instead a repost of something that has a page of its own here at twc)

O Blessed, Holy Caffeine Tree!

For all the ways you give life zest,
O Caffeine Tree, you are the best!

N.B.–The graphic above has a word-switch in the second verse that I need to get around to editing. First one to spot it gets two brownie points, redeemable for absolutely nothing but a pat on the back and a hearty “Attaboy/girl!”

Losers in France don’t understand the democratic process… or more likely do understand and just don’t care for it when a soi disant “conservative” wins an election… (BTW, women voters strongly rejected a woman candidate for president there. So much for so-called “gender politics”.)

BTW, what do ya wanna bet that “youths from the projects” mentioned in the story inked above is a euphemism for Islamic savages?

Thanks to enviro weenies stonewalling all new refinery builds for the last 40 years or so–and other enviro weenie crapola–“Gas Prices Surge to Record U.S. Average of $3.07 Per Gallon”. In a world where even a soupçon of rational behavior were a part of public policy, we’d be awash in plentiful, relatively inexpensive oil and refined oil products, our electricity would be largely–if not almost entirely–produced by safe, clean nuclear energy and the Middle Eastern oil producing states would be satrapies of civilized Western countries. Islamic terrorism funded by oil money? Wouldn’t exist. Oh, well. As James Burnham so famously said,

“Liberalism is a philosophy of consolation for Western civilization as it commits suicide.”

Fred puts his thumb squarely in the eye of a GAO report that says America’s decline in students studying the sciences (no, no poly-sci, p-sych or sosh–the real sciences) can be remedied by outreach to “minorities”–

In gummint talk, “minorities” doesn’t mean minorities, like Anglo-Saxons, Greeks, Jews, men, or Chinese. No. These latter cannot be minorities because they do not have a solidly established record of incapacity. They haven’t made their bones by nonfeasance. (Since they aren’t minorities, logically they must all be majorities, or at least half the population each, which must play hell with population figures.)…

…Actually, I kind of like this outreach stuff. I propose that the NBA improve its talent pool by reaching out to one-legged dwarves with a weight problem. I’m serious. These constitute an untapped repository of athleticism. Clearly untapped, since there is not one overweight dwarf in the entire league…

*heh* Sic ’em, Fred.

“Free Trade’s Great, but Offshoring Rattles Me”. No, really? Whyever for? TANSTAAFL, dude, TANSTAAFL.

On to the wisdom of Islam, this time from that font of Islamic religious jurisprudence, the Ayatollah Khomeini (remember him?) on the *cough* proper way for a man to have sex with an animal…

“A man can have sex with sheep, cows and camels and so on. However, he should kill the animal after he has his orgasm. He should not sell the meat to the people in his own village; however, selling the meat to the next door village should be fine.”

There ya go, folks! Maybe that lil passage can be included in sex education in the proposed combo public school/madrassa in Brooklyn, if only the “good intentioned” (yeh, scare quotes, folks) leftists can get that worthy project back on track… (h.t. Angel of Woman Honor Thyself). After all, it’d be the multi-culti thing to do, wouldn’t it?

*feh*

More Republican’t “me-too-ism”–Trent Lott sets his own deadline.
