Do We “Terrorize” Muslims?

DelawareLiberal claims that we (Americans) terrorize Muslims.  Do we?

Let’s look at this example from our friends from the First State leftosphere:

In the latest in a spate of anti-Muslim incidents over the last two days, an intoxicated man entered a mosque in Queens on Wednesday evening and proceeded to urinate on prayer rugs, New York police officials said.

The man, identified as Omar Rivera, reportedly shouted anti-Muslim epithets and called worshippers who had gathered for evening prayer “terrorists.” One witness told the New York Post the man was “very clearly intoxicated” and had a beer bottle in his hand at the time.

“He stuck up his middle finger and cursed at everyone,” Mustapha Sadouki, who was at the mosque at the time, said. “He calls us terrorists, yet he comes into our mosque and terrorizes other people.”

Was Omar Rivera rude?  YES!  Should he be punished for his offense?  YES!  Is this terrorism against Muslims?  Give me a break!

Let’s face it, we live in the world we live in.  If a group of Episcopalians or lacrosse players were responsible for the largest terror attack in our nation’s history, many Americans might blame Episcopalians or lacrosse players.  It’s wrong, but it’s also human nature.

The left needs to quit portraying every distasteful incident of anti-Muslim bias as an act of terrorism or a major civil rights issue.  It’s a classic case of HATE AMERICA FIRST!

No Limits!

If you haven’t already been scared out of your complacency, read this excellent piece from David Anderson over at DelawarePolitics.net!

Radical Democrat Congressman Peter Stark-CA was asked a simple question by one of his constituents. What limits would remain on the federal government if Congress could get away with passing a bill as destructive of individual rights as Obamacare? Congressman Stark gave an answer which even shocked his constituency. “I think that there are very few constitutional limits that would prevent the federal government from rules that could affect your private life.” When the town hall booed him, he doubled down, “the federal government, yes, can do most anything in this country.”.

DelawareLiberal Attacks Palin, Supports Ground Zero Mosque

The left is so afraid of Sarah Palin that they will do or say anything IF they think that it reflects badly on her.  Our pals over at DelawareLiberal are no different.

According to “Unstable Isotope”, Palin is “intolerant” and just plain stupid.  I’ll admit that spelling errors piss me off too (particularly my own), but I hardly think that makes Palin “dumb”.  After all, the folks over at DL worship at the alter of Barack Obama and he can’t even read his teleprompter.  Remember the Navy Corpse-man who received a medal?

As for denouncing the mosque at Ground Zero, Palin is right on target.  Even in Delaware, I think Mr. (or is it Ms.?) Isotope would find themselves heavily outnumbered on this one.

What happened to the “new kind of politics” promised by the Obama faithful?  Sounds like the same old partisan hackery to me.

Will GOP Halt Obama’s Next Supreme Court Nominee?

FOXNews reports that Senate Minority Whip Jon Kyle (R-AZ) has fired a shot across the bow of the Obama administration regarding any possible replacement for Associate Justice John Paul Stevens:

He suggested the party did not want anyone so outspoken as Sonia Sotomayor, who was picked to replace former Justice David Souter last year, and said the decision on whether the GOP will filibuster will "all depend" on who the next nominee is.

"I think the president will nominate a qualified person. I hope, however, he does not nominate an overly ideological person. That will be the test," Kyl said. "And if he doesn’t nominate someone who is overly ideological, I don’t think — you may see Republicans voting against the nominee, but I don’t think you’ll see them engage in a filibuster."

Stevens, the leader of the courts liberal wing, has stated that he will retire while Obama is still president.  Wait, I thought people like Stevens were “above politics”?

Rep. Phil Hare – The Face of Fascism

“I don’t worry about the Constitution.”  That’s a direct quote from Rep. Phil Hare (D-IL).

It’s bad enough that this guy thinks that the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution are the same thing.  It’s bad enough that he doesn’t worry about little things like our Constitution.  Here is the oath of office Rep. Hare took in January of 2007 AND 2009:

I, NAME, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.

It seems that Phil Hare is one of those domestic enemies.  At least local lefty Mike Pretl makes a pretense of adhering to the Constitution in claiming that ObamaCare is a good thing.  Hayek was right.  Without the rule of law we are most certainly headed down the road to serfdom.

The New McCarthyism … Courtesy of the Left

McCarthyism … That dirty little word from the 1950’s.  We shouldn’t persecute people for their political beliefs.  (NO, we should PROSECUTE people because of their political beliefs) Well, it’s back.  The NEW face of McCarthyism – Rep. Henry Waxman (D-CA), the congressman from 90210.

Waxman has decided to haul several corporations before his Energy and Commerce Committee to attack them.  Why?  They had the audacity to restate their earning because of the future impact of ObamaCare.  Their crime?  Obeying the law.

Corporations are required to restate their earning in a timely fashion when circumstances warrant.  Corporations are also required to include the present value of future healthcare liabilities on their balance sheets.  Because companies like AT&T, John Deere, Caterpillar, Valero, and others, commit the unspeakable crime of providing drug benefits to their retirees, they have been forced to write down earnings because of an increase in their future health care liabilities.

Ireton’s “Slumlord of the Week” – Policy or Sham?

Today’s front page story in the Daily Times regarding Salisbury mayor Jim Ireton’s new “Slumlord of the Week” policy fails to answer several questions:

1. Is this “policy” meant to accomplish anything?
2. Why doesn’t Ireton actually do something to fulfill his campaign promise “to ‘close loopholes’ in the city’s municipal codes and get crime out of neighborhoods”?

IF Ireton was actually doing something to close these loopholes and to actually enforce the spirit, as well as the letter, of the city’s zoning laws that would be one thing.  Instead, we have seen one woman loose her rental income because of zoning (last Sunday’s DT), but we’re not seeing any progress in taking care of the scores of non-conforming uses in the city.
