Déjà vu, Carter, Jimmy

 

Déjà vu, Carter, Jimmy

As I gazed onto a parade route sprinkled with red, white and-blue everything on July 4, I thought about what patriots past and present have sacrificed for our freedom. I also thought about the people in Iran fighting for azadi, the Persian word for freedom.

The White House has offered what amounts to diplomatic dribble in response to their plight for liberty. I'm not saying our president should send militia to muscle the mullahs, but shouldn't he at least show stronger solidarity for the protesters? Isn't it time his actions superseded his rhetoric?

Is it just me or is anyone else experiencing a Carter déjà vu?

Carter didn't do enough to support an Iranian popular revolt. Carter's foreign policy was ridiculously idealistic. Carter believed that he could negotiate his way out of anything. Carter tried to pacify every party. Carter believed international thugs and terrorists could be swayed from extremism by simply presenting them what he thought was a better way.

Negotiating with extremists has never worked. Trying to reform them only morphs them into different monsters. And who can prove that more in the 20th century than President Jimmy Carter?

Carter is a major reason that we are in our Middle Eastern dilemma with Iran today because, while allegedly fighting for human rights, he set the stage for the rise of two of the worst human rights violators in history – the Ayatollah Khomeini and ultimately his modern successor, the current president of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

As many recall, during the early 1970s, democratic-flavored reforms flourished in Iran because of the Shah, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, from economic and educational reforms, to increased rights for women, religious minorities, etc. And the Nixon and Ford administrations applauded and rewarded these reforms.

With Carter's induction as president and push for human rights in international affairs, the Shah's popularity declined, because of accusations that he tortured thousands of prisoners. Carter demanded the Shah release political prisoners, break up military trials, permit free assemblies, among other requests – all of which only fostered political and social unrest.

Carter's push for social reform in the name of human rights prompted the further uprising of extremists and anti-government   rallies. And, by the fall of 1977, anti-Shah Shiite clergy and university students conducted well-organized resistances. Carter's connection and influence over the Shah prompted this pro-western leader's backlash in Iran and around the world. Even while visiting the White House in November 1977, the Shah and his empress were met by thousands of protesters.

Obama is worse than Carter


PB&J

''Obama's not like every other president. We haven't seen this level of incompetence since Carter, if ever, and this kind of bloated ego and delusion of grandeur has never been seen in the White House. He believes he's here to change the world, from his own mouth. Pass me the barf bag.''

Poll Question: A real attention grabber

A real attention grabber
Poll question:
What should be the U.S. response to an al-Qaida nuclear attack here?
Al-Qaida has obtained at least 40 nuclear weapons from the former Soviet Union – including suitcase nukes, nuclear mines, artillery shells and even some missile warheads. In addition, documents captured in Afghanistan show al-Qaida had plans to assemble its own nuclear weapons with fissile material it purchased on the black market.

Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima(for real)
Global Gorecaster's climate fiction  Bryan Walsh wrote the cover story; he calls green "the new red, white and blue." It's Al Gore's fault. His Army service involved manning a typewriter, not a machine gun. But war is minor to Al, who has created a whole new career and gotten astonishingly rich by becoming the world's biggest fear-monger. We may be doomed, but he, Tipper and the kids will go out in style. According to Gore, and TV commercials from his environmental outfit, one thing takes precedence over everything, including World War II: the environmental "crisis."
 

Cat in the hat
Papal Wrap 
Pope Benedict XVI's focus on the problem in his first papal visit to the U.S.—seen most dramatically in his private meeting with victims—showed that the spiritual leader of the world's 1 billion Roman Catholics believes his church still has healing to do. There is already one tangible impact. The Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests said dozens of new people have come forward in the last few days to say they were molested as children. Many told the Survivors Network they were drawn by the pope's remarks


Carter's clownish intellect or contract with many?
Carter's play date with Hamas
 After meeting former Attorney General Ramsey Clark for a traditional lunch of hummus and falafel, Carter joined his peace-loving hosts in another symbolic display, hoisting a Kalashnikov assault rifle over his head and joining them in a chant of "Death to Israel!" Said Hamas leader Muhammad Muhammad, "Out of deference to President Carter, we didn't ask him to chant 'death to America,' because that might have made him somewhat uncomfortable."

Price fixing at its finest and simplest 
Time to shatter OPEC … again  How to do it:  Reagan got Congress to repeal the oil taxes and open up public lands to oil drilling. The oil boom in the U.S. that followed increased supply worldwide (with new discoveries offshore Britain and Norway, for example). The lines at the gas stations disappeared, the price of gas plummeted, and the economy boomed. The price of a barrel of oil in 1983 touched $10. OPEC was shattered...We have forgotten this history.

The third end of the age horseman, riding the black horse, is called Famine. Its rider holds a scale, which could be a representation of the 'scales of pitiless justice' which commonly represent inequality and corruption.
U.N. to world: We need FOOD!  "We must make no mistake, the problem is big. If we offer the right aid, the solutions will come," Ban said at the opening of a a five-day U.N. conference on trade and development in Ghana's capital, Accra.  "One thing is certain, the world has consumed more than it has produced" over the last three years, he said. Ban blamed a host of causes for the soaring cost of food, including rising oil prices, the fall of the U.S. dollar and natural disasters.

Foundations for a Socialist World Order  The power elite wants a World Socialist Government, and many of the health-care proposals over the past decade would move us closer and closer to socialized medicine. According to a Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) February 14, 2008 press release, a survey showed 70 percent of Democrats believe we would be better off with socialized medicine.

 
The Catholic Church has had a difficult time recruiting men to the priesthood. Homosexuals see this as an opportunity. Why not go where there’s an almost unlimited supply of young boys whose parents consider priests to be god-like?
Gay priests and molestation  ...
rather than urge the church to keep homosexuals out of the priesthood, the board said it is vital that seminaries create a climate and a culture “conducive to chastity.” So homosexuals can continue to be admitted as long as they don't engage in homosexuality. But that was expected of them in the past, and they violated the rules. Many in the media ignored the problem, as identified by the board, and then ignored the fact that no real solution was presented.

   



'Gay' marriage: The cure for homosexuality  Thus I suspect if married gay couples honored their vows, within two to three generations we would not have any more gay babies being born. Given most gay people say they didn't choose to be gay but were born gay, it would eliminate innocent people being born into a world that homosexuals deem so hostile toward them. It would settle once and for all the argument that homosexuality is genetic and not a choice. Nature, not nurture. If there is no procreation, there is no passing of genes and, thus, the species does not survive. Darwin would have been right!

 


 
Hitler and Darwin still give you the finger
Hitler's links to Darwinism At Hitler’s death in May of 1945, the point was clear enough to the editorial writers of the New York Times. “Long before he had dreamed of achieving power,” they wrote, [Hitler] had developed the principles that nations were destined to hate, oppose and destroy one another; [and] that the law of history was the struggle for survival between peoples … ”.  
Where, one might ask, had Hitler heard those ideas before?

Enormous Cost of Illegal Criminal Aliens Illegal alien migration into the United States costs American taxpayers $346 billion annually as reported by the National Research Council. While employers of illegal aliens rake-in billions of dollars, the US citizens subsidize what might be called organized “Slavery in 21st Century America.”
