Obama chooses Arab network for first TV interview

Well, this has to cap the stack! Will someone pinch me so I'll know I'm dreaming?

Try this Obama quote on for size. ""My job to the Muslim world is to communicate that the Americans are not your enemy," Obama told the Saudi-owned, Dubai-based Al-Arabiya news channel. First of all, I didn't know he had a "job to the Muslim world". If this idiot has a "job to" anyone, wouldn't it be to the United States? And if America is not radical Islam's enemy, then who is?

I'm providing links below to the AP News story, and then to the actual interview transcript. I hope you've got a strong stomach.

And finally, Chris Matthews, is something "tingling up your leg" right now? This is a link to AP where you can get an overview of his interview:

May God have mercy on us and the USA.

Obamas Inauguration--A Day That Should Live on in Infamy!

Posted by Jim R. Keener on Wednesday, January 21, 2009 12:00:00 AM

If yesterday wasn't hard enough on we conservatives, today isn't much better. I expect this kind of silly coverages by ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN, but not Fox News. I know what Juan Williams is, but please, you let him cry out a statement about the Rev.(his title-not mine) Lowery's prayer. That prayer is what Rush called an insult to America.

How many conservatives are furious this morning about some of the outrageous things that happened yesterday? If yesterday's events cannot unite conservatives, then we might as well fold the tent.

President George Bush has performed remarkably during the transition. Even some in the liberal media have praised his actions as being unequaled in the graciousness of an outgoing President toward the incoming one. President Bush is an honorable man and it has never shown more than yesterday. Even after all the insults and barbarous action of Obama supporters on the steps of the capitol yesterday, President Bush, on arriving in Midland, Texas, at the end of a long day, called Obama "a good man". You're a better man that I Mr. President. I applaud you grace and refinement.

I am incensed at what took place yesterday at the inauguration. How could any decent American citizen participate in what was done to President Bush and his family Vice-President Cheney and his family, not to mention that it was also an insult to the entire nation. Well, apparently, there were plenty of people who crawled out of their pathetic ditch and tried to embarrass the President, Vice-President, the U.S. Military, of which President Bush was still the commander-in-chief, and all other decent Americans.

I hope people are already aware of what took place there yesterday. When President Bush arrived at the platform many of Obama's supporters loudly booed the President and his party. Vice-President Cheney, attending the inaugural in a wheel chair was booed and actually laughed at by this Obama trash. Many of Obama's "decent Americans" sang the juvenile, Na, na, na, na, Na, na, na, na, hey, hey, good-bye." I have never witnessed, and hope I never do again, this type of behavior on a world stage. Obama's supporters who participated in this are a disgrace, but you know what is worse? Obama's silence. Obama never said a word in defense of the outgoing administration, nor did he criticize this pitiable behavior. He had plenty of opportunity to repudiate this wretched behavior either before, during or after his address, which had already been labeled by the liberal media as words that "would be chiseled in marble". Mr. Obama, you were identified to the American people and the world as a man who is small, self-centered, and still consumed with hate for President Bush and the millions and millions of people around the world who recognize that President Bush is an honorable, cultured, and principled man.

As this deplorable action, which Obama participated in by his silence, is blogged around the earth, it is my hope that you, you who agree that this was an absolutely unacceptable attack on an American hero, will repeat it every where you go. I pray that you will take this debate to anyone who will listen, and I pray that decent individuals in the media, will take up the story and see that everyone on earth knows that America does not treat its leaders this way--especially leaders who have devoted themselves to protecting all the citizens of not only America, but all of the world from radical haters, the kind of haters which got their start doing the same thing these people did yesterday. God, protect America from her enemies, including the ones who crawled up out of their misery yesterday, long enough to embarrass our beloved country.

Newt, Newt, Newt! Have we lost you, son?

Well, Newt has lost his pea-picking mind. An article by Newt about the Obama Coronation on Human Events is jarring.

The Title of Newt's Article is:

Taking President Obama At His Word

by Newt Gingrich

Here are my comments and questions to Newt. A link to his article follows my short comment.

Newt, Newt, Newt. Have you lost your mind my friend? I've followed you since the GOPAC days, and this is the craziest thing I've ever heard you say.

I don't care if there were 18 cod-zillion people on the mall that day, you're talking about the coronation of King Obama who wants to allow America to murder more babies that we are already murdering. You're placing, in a positive light, an event that heralds the demise of the family, the military, our security, and the loosing of the worst terrorists in the world from Gitmo.

Even as I write this I am realizing that you must surely be under a doctor's care. Where's the old Newt? Has he gone the way of Johnny McCain? Spend some of that genius you possess helping us figure out how to beat him in three years, not welcoming him to the throne.

The Tomb

Ignoring the disagreement many folks have about the day of the week that Jesus was crucified and the day of the week when He arose from the dead, I think it is appropriate to mention today, that on this second day, Jesus' body is in the tomb. This second day, between the crucifixion and the resurrection cannot be without significance.

The cruel death on the cross that Jesus suffered, the burial in a borrowed tomb, and the glorious resurrection is sufficient to provide the only way that we can escape the punishment for our sins. Christians and others ponder the crucifixion and the resurrection which took place at the end of what is sometimes referred to as "Holy Week", and rightly so, but do we ponder the day he was in the tomb? Do we consider that there must be a reason the God-Man deemed it so?

Clearly Jesus could have come alive again in their presence after he was pronounced dead on the cross. Certainly he could have come down off the cross alive and with power. But he didn't do that. He allowed his dead body to be prepared for burial in the manner of the custom of that day. He allowed his body to be placed in that dark, cold, borrowed hole in the side of a mountain of rock, and he allowed the stone to be rolled into place, blocking the entrance.

Today, as we go about our routine, as we prepare for The Resurrection Morning, let's think about the second day of Jesus' sacrifice. That hole in the mountain of rock stayed closed for the entire day. One thing is for certain. It stayed closed and dark because Jesus wanted it to be so. Lord Jesus, thank you for loving us so much.

God Bless America's Soldiers

This Memorial Day I've been thinking about Americans who have served their country in all of our past wars. The American Soldier has sacrificed tremendously down through the history of our nation.

Few of us today stop and think about the history of our nation. Actually, it's hard for many Americans to think about the role the American Soldier has played in the history of our nation, because of the revisionist history that is now being taught in our schools.

I wish all Americans could pause this Memorial Day to think of the sacrifices American soldiers have made so that we can have our freedom. I am writing at this forum and you are reading it thanks to America's soldiers. Yesterday, as you entered your place of worship, no one stopped you at the door and sent you away. No one is searching Americans' homes today without a warrant, and next year, we will chose our national leaders at the voting booth--all thanks to the American soldier.

I wish we could all stop and mull, for a short time, some of the sacrifices of these men. If you haven't given it thought lately, think of these men, and women for a moment, in the context of which they struggled.

In the American Revolution, men served in a war where they were often deprived of food, clothing, and weapons. They were separated from their families and faced hard winters in encampments throughout the colonies. These soldiers, few in number, were taking on the might of Great Britain, the largest military organization on the face of the earth.

During the American Civil War approximately 650,000 men died during the five years of war. Soldiers in this war, particularly Southern, also faced deprivation in many forms. They fought on, day after day, without food, proper clothing and munitions. Soldiers on both sides were separated from family, home, their normal way of life. (I am not addressing the cause of the war, but simply the sacrifice of the soldiers).

The wars of the 20th Century, WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Middle East Wars and the current War on Terror are replete with sacrifices by the American soldier.

Let's pause sometime during this Memorial Day to remember the American Soldier. He has always been willing to fight. He has always endured hardships. He has always been willing to die for you and me. His sacrifice should never be forgotten.
