Posted on October 23, 2010 at 9:57amWhat Juan was expressing is normal. We have no way of knowing which muslims are willing to ignore the instructions in the quran that tell them to kill non-muslims. It is a reasonable thing for people to not trust them.

Posted on October 24, 2010 at 12:15pmYou are right. The appearance cannot tell you what their intent is. Yes, the people who flew the planes on 9-11-01 were dressed just like Americans, but we just had an example where a UN compound was attacked by men wearing burkas. So it does give us pause…..does that make us bigots, NO, it just means that people of Islamic faith have violated our trust and we are aware of that fact.

Unfortunately for him, the only one sucking in his poison is he and Schultz (perhaps the other three people watching), since in the jury of public opinion, Juan was found innocent. Wake up, Dems and liberal media, they will throw you in the snake pit in a heartbeat and FOX may not be there to catch you.

Posted on October 23, 2010 at 10:08amWas feeling down yesterday but better today, Thanks!
Have a joke and a video for you. Have a good day!
I bought a new Ford F250 Tri-Flex Fuel Truck
Go figure it runs on either hydrogen, gasoline, or E85.
I returned to the dealer yesterday
Because I couldn’t get the radio to work…
The service technician explained that the radio was voice activated.
‘Nelson,’ the technician said to the radio.
The radio replied, ‘Ricky or Willie?’
‘Willie!‘ he continued and ’On The Road Again’
Came from the speakers.
Then he said, ‘Ray Charles!’, and in an instant
‘ Georgia On My Mind’ replaced Willie Nelson.
I drove away happy, and for the next few days,
Every time I’d say, ‘Beethoven,’
I’d get beautiful classical music, and if I said,
‘Beatles,‘ I’d get one of their awesome songs.
Yesterday, some guy ran a red light
And nearly creamed my new truck,
But I swerved in time to avoid him.
I yelled, ‘Hey Stupid!’
Immediately the radio responded with,
Ladies and gentlemen,
The President of The
United States
Boy I love this truck….

Posted on October 23, 2010 at 9:21amQur’an:9:5 “Fight and kill the disbelievers wherever you find them, take them captive, harass them, lie in wait and ambush them using every stratagem of war.”
Hmmm, I’m a little nervous every time I pass a mosque, let alone a moslem in garb. Funny, no nervousness when I pass a Catholic priest of Hassidic Jew, both in characteristic clothing. But neither religion calls for the death of those of a different belief. When ‘moderate’ moslems no longer view jihadists as more observant moslems and thus do not criticize them, when ‘moderate’ moslems protest acts of terror, when ‘moderate’ moslems make themselves visible, I will then believe there are indeed ‘moderate’ moslems. Until then, there are the observant moslems (jihadists) and on-observant moslems.

Posted on October 23, 2010 at 11:48amIslam, come and get us!
Everything you say is correct. The fundamental problem with is Islam is that Muhammad was a warrior, in the literal sense. His objective was the conquering of Mecca and Medina via physical force. This is why the Koran is filled with passages of smiting the infidels, and this is why The New Testament of the Bible, the New Covenant of Christainity, does not contain verses prescribing stonings, beatings, etc. Throughout the Gospels, Jesus banes the use of violence for all infractions.
And this is why Jesus is my Lord and Savior!

Posted on October 23, 2010 at 6:20pmThere is a book written by a former police officer – the title eludes me at the moment. But he explains how people should learn to listen to their inner voice when it tips you off to danger. As adults, we have talked ourselves into thinking that we are just being silly (or others tell us we are being bigoted) so we learn to ignore that ‘safety signal’.
It’s the rabbit that ignores the feeling of danger who gets eaten. The progressives are trying to disarm us. We have to keep our guards up.

Posted on October 23, 2010 at 9:19amOf course this bozo plays the race card. Nothing Juan said was “bigoted”. The people who got on the planes on 9-11 looked mainstrean? Has he looked at their photos lately? I am so glad NPR fired Juan because it totally backfired and has exposed them for being the true bigots AND I think it will really wake Juan up too. I predict a major shift in Juan because now he knows first hand what we have always known about the radical left – they do ot allow free speech if it doesn’t gel with their radical agenda. De-fund NPR! To think we fund them makes me sick.

Posted on October 23, 2010 at 10:45amI’m always amazed at how the definition of being an American changes. Lately, it seems to be a moving target. Sometimes, it‘s based on one’s willingness to recite the Pledge of Allegiance (which is not an oath), other times it‘s one’s freedom to express an opinion that is non-violent, other times it‘s some other item that shouldn’t even be part of the discussion.
Oddly enough, the Dems don’t consider the POTUS repeatedly omitting a word from the Declaration of Independence as an un-American action, which is odd in my eyes since that document along with the Constitution, is the basic founding document of our country. Right up there in the Political realm of Believe it or not, is the fact that the POTUS will bow to dictators, and other world leaders but does not hesitate to insult one long time ally by returning a statue or another long term ally with pro-Palestinian comments.

Mr. Williams has a remarkable record, to the best I can determine on writing of the civil rights, and for being honest on his oppinions, and so the instant someone disagrees with the left, or the progressive goals then they become “Un-American!“ or they become ”Need a Head Shrink“ or are ”Bigoted” at least these name callers are showing their true colors and beliefs in the light of day now.

Posted on October 23, 2010 at 10:22amDebunking Liberalism: Understanding Narcissism
Trinkets of authenticity are what today’s Liberals are famous for, and not just in their plight for survival as demonstrated here. This feigning, these trinkets of authenticity are the mechanisms responsible for the whole upward mobility that liberalism, as an ideology and politic has had over the years, over the decades. But as usual what we are witnessing is only the most outward surface of liberalism, of what we’re being allowed to see.
But take notice then, over time as liberalism grows bolder it shows more of itself. Metaphorically, and for small instance, first it punches you in the face and then goes about saving itself from retaliation by denouncing violence, pointing at you as being angry and full of hate and obscenities. Previously, no one saw the actually punch; but now, currently, they will boldly land one square on your jaw in the open for all to see. Quite simply they are taking a stand. They believe they have created enough realities, enough images and beliefs for all around them to survive by, to live by, and to define themselves by so much so that they feel they can explain and rationalize all things away.
But we have to come to an understanding here and now: Liberalism is not going to go away by pointing out how bad that it is, that it lies, that it cheats and that it steals . . . that it positions itself as a perpetual victim of the people that are themselves trying to save themselves from it. Merely reporting on it, bringing awareness to the strategies and movements of modern liberalism is not enough to beat it back and defeat it. Its constructs are far too engrained in society; it has significant influence and power because again, it fluidly creates realities, images, and beliefs that flow through each and every instance where it exists. Juan Williams and NPR are perfect examples of this observable phenomenon. Political Correctness, a tool of liberalism to shape realities, images and beliefs was brought out like a knife from a drawer to cut the head off of what no longer served its narcissistic purposes. A reality was created from an image that was created from a belief . . . the effectiveness of Political Correctness was on full display.
Anyone that has grown up with narcissism in their family and has escaped it psychologically or has been in a relationship with a narcissist and separated themselves from the same controlling forces and layers of insanity that over time sets in, they will more easily understand the point that’s being expressed here. Unfortunately though, many do not understand narcissism until it is too late to escape its psychological chains such as America has collectively, as a culture and a society been shackled to. Primarily, this is because narcissists above all things renders helpless the ability to know reality, the ability to recognize untruths and deceptions . . . it does this so successfully because in the world of the complete narcissist reality is whatever they need or want it to be, what they tell you that it is. This is clearly on display each and every day observing liberalism, the collective narcissism of society.
So, when we say we are fighting liberalism, we are essentially saying that we are fighting a version, a transfigured and projected version of narcissism. How you go about escaping narcissism’s grip is of another much longer and complicated conversation though but must take place.
And if you doubt the power of narcissism and its significance in defining liberalism, as a collective narcissism, you are in part a victim of its influence. Sounds ironic, because it is . . . Liberalism, narcissism, they’re a continuation of rationalizations and contradictions, stacked one on top of the other, layer upon deceptive layer, image after image, beliefs built upon beliefs built upon ironic rationalizations and contradictions: Our reality, so they want us to see.
Simple, and openly convincing, this comes from none other than Harry Reid’s own words this past week: “but for me we’d be in a worldwide depression” (Foxnews.com). Add the personalities of Pelosi, Frank, Obama, Emanuel, Gibbs, Axelrod, etc. etc. and you have a collective force of narcissists that defines modern liberalism.
From here, we can take a look around us and see the walls of the immense hole we have been placed in, that we cannot easily scale to escape as they are shoveling down on us the dirt that will eventually bury us alive should we fail to define what it will take to crawl ourselves out. And then understand, there are members of the GOP that have clean shoes, no dirt under their fingernails . . . nor do they have empathy as they look down at us standing in the shadows of our beliefs.
