Does this explain liberals to you?

"This is sheer genius."

In a bid to stem taxpayer losses for bad loans guaranteed by federal housing agencies Fanny Mae and Freddy Mac, Senator Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) proposed that borrowers be required to make a 5% down payment in order to qualify.  

His proposal was rejected 57-42 on a party-line vote because, as Senator Chris Dodd (D-Conn) explained, "Passage of such a requirement would restrict home ownership to only those who can afford it."
I can't add anything to this.

10 troubling questions

From Glen Beck:

1)      When we had a vote to authorize military action on Iraq, it was wrong.   But when we don’t have a vote on it?  Or even a real debate on a war in Libya—it’s okay?

2)      Is this purely a war fought on humanitarian grounds?

3)      If no, what are the interests of the United States in Libya?

4)      If our interests are oil, okay…but are you suddenly okay with war for oil?

5)      If humanitarian reasons are enough by themselves, will you promise to never bring up WMD’s in Iraq again?

6)      Do you disagree with this quote:   “The president does not have power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to the nation.”/ Or is Libya an “imminent threat” to us?  [By the way, that quote was from:  Barack Obama December 20, 2007]

7)      If things go badly, and Gadhafi holds power for a while, do we escalate things?  Or are we allowing in our war plan for the real possibility of failure?

8)      If the idea is to stop the brutalization of civilians—why not Sudan? Congo? Syria? Fill in awful situation around the world…

9)      Is it okay for Gadhafi to remain in power as the administration has hinted?  And if so, and Gadhafi goes back to killing a few months after we leave—are we going back in?

10)   How does it feel to have elected a president who is now managing 50% more wars than George W. Bush?  A president who has launched a new war with a coalition half the size?

YouTube biased???

perhaps... maybe so


the video that YouTube wants to remove is one of the scariest I've seen.... the missiles intended to be lobbed against Israel are horrifying.


Perhaps the action or lack of in Libya is a DIVERSION to take attention away from this action.

The IDF  (Israeli Defense Force or Israeli Army) has a video  on U Tube  explaining what's going on, but U Tube wants to remove it by using the excuse as not too many people are logging in.    Please share this, so many people will log in and  the IDF will be able to have its voice heard.

Palin: Why are Israelis 'apologizing'?

JERUSALEM (UPI) -- Former U.S. vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin suggested as she toured Jerusalem's Western Wall that Israelis were too conciliatory toward Arab concerns.

"Why are you apologizing all the time?" Palin asked her guides after being told Jews were not allowed to pray openly at the Temple Mount and about Arab riots that followed Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's opening of an exit from its tunnels in 1996.

Israel enforces a controversial ban on prayer at the Temple Mount by non-Muslim visitors.

The Jerusalem Post, which quoted Palin asking the question, did not report what Western Wall Rabbi Shmuel Rabinovitz and conservative Israeli lawmaker Danny Danon said in response.

"She didn't go into diplomatic issues, but I can clearly say from the questions she asked in relation to our conflict here with the Muslims in these holy sites that she knows that we are right and that the Muslims are just claiming things for provocation and they're not right," the Post quoted Danon as saying. 
Palin -- the subject of speculation that she may try for the Republican presidential nomination in 2012 -- described herself in a 2008 interview as a "Bible-believing Christian."

The issue of public prayer is touchy at the Temple Mount because the site is holy to both Jews and Muslims. It is known by Muslims as the Noble Sanctuary.

Traditional Judaism regards the Temple Mount as the site where God chose the "divine presence" to rest, where the world expanded into its present form and where God gathered the dust used to create the first man, Adam.

It is also where the two ancient Jewish Temples were built. The Western Wall is a remnant of an ancient wall that surrounded the Temple's courtyard and is one of the most sacred sites in Judaism outside of the Temple Mount itself.

Among Sunni Muslims, the Noble Sanctuary is considered the third-holiest site in Islam, the location of the Prophet Mohammed's journey to Jerusalem and ascent to heaven.

It is also the home of the al-Aqsa Mosque and Dome of the Rock Islamic shrine, dating from the year 691.

The dome, built when Muslims controlled Jerusalem, sits at or near where the Bible mandates the Temple be rebuilt, traditional Jews say.

"I'm so thankful to be able to be here and I'm thankful to know the Israel-American connection will grow and strengthen as the peace negotiations continue," Palin told reporters during her Sunday evening Western Wall tour.

She and her husband Todd had dinner with Netanyahu and his wife Sara at the Netanyahus' Jerusalem home Monday. The dinner was closed to the media and Netanyahu's office offered no immediate statement about it. 

Truth

Some people have the vocabulary to sum up things in a way you can understand them. This quote came from the Czech Republic . Someone over there has it figured out, we have a lot of work to do.

  

"The danger to America is not Barrack Obama but a citizenry capable

of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier

to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the

necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to

have such a man for their president. 

The problem is much deeper and far more serious than Mr. Obama, who is a mere symptom of what ails America . Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barrack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president.

You could have heard a pin drop.

At a time when our president and other politicians tend to apologize for our country's prior actions, here's a refresher on how some of our former patriots handled negative comments about our country. 
  
 

 

JFK'S 

Secretary of State, Dean Rusk, was in  France  in the early 60's when 

DeGaulle decided to pull out of NATO.  DeGaulle said he wanted all US  

military out of France as soon as possible.

 

Rusk responded, "Does that include those who are buried here?"

 

DeGaulle 

did not respond.

You 

could have heard a pin drop.

 

 

When in  England  ,at a fairly large conference, Colin Powell was asked by the 

Archbishop of Canterbury  if our plans for  Iraq  were just an example of 

'empire building' by George Bush.

 

He answered by saying,

"Over the years, the United States has sent many of 

its fine young men and women into great peril to fight for freedom 

beyond our borders.  The only amount of land we have ever asked for 

in return is enough to bury those that did not 

return."

There was a conference in France where a number of international engineers  

were taking part, including French and American.  During a break,  

one of the French engineers came back into the room saying, "Have you 

heard the latest dumb stunt Bush has done? He has sent an aircraft 

carrier to  Indonesia  to help the tsunami victims.  What does he 

intend to do, bomb them?"

 

A Boeing engineer stood up and replied quietly:  "Our carriers have three 

hospitals on board that can treat several hundred people; they are 

nuclear powered and can supply emergency  electrical power to 

shore facilities; they have three  cafeterias with the capacity to 

feed 3,000 people three meals a day, they can produce several thousand 

gallons of fresh water from sea water each day, and they carry half a 

dozen helicopters for use in transporting victims and injured to and 

from their flight deck.  

We have eleven such ships; how many does France have?"

A  U.S. Navy Admiral was attending a naval conference that included 

Admirals from the U.S., English, Canadian, Australian and French 

Navies  At a cocktail reception, he found himself standing with a large 

group of officers that included personnel from most of those countries. 

Everyone was chatting away in English as they sipped their drinks but a 

French admiral suddenly complained that, whereas Europeans learn many 

languages, Americans learn only English. He then asked, "Why is it that 

we always have to speak English in these conferences rather than 

speaking French?"

 

Without hesitating, the American Admiral replied, "Maybe it's because the 

Brit's, Canadians, Aussie's and Americans arranged it so you wouldn't 

have to speak German."

AND 

THIS STORY FITS RIGHT IN WITH THE ABOVE...

 

Robert Whiting, an elderly gentleman of 83, arrived in Paris by plane.

At French Customs, he took a few minutes to locate his passport

in his carry on.

 

"You 

have been to France before, monsieur?" the customs officer asked 

 sarcastically.

 

Mr. Whiting admitted that he had been to France

previously.

 

"Then 

you should know enough to have your passport ready."

 

The American said, "The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it."

 

"Impossible.. 

Americans always have to show their passports on arrival in France !"

 

The American senior gave the Frenchman a long hard look.  Then he 

quietly explained, ''Well, when I came ashore at  Omaha Beach  on D-Day in 

1944 to help liberate this country, I couldn't find a single Frenchmen 

to show a passport to."
