World War 3, Obama and the Mad American Club

Iran Rattles Sabers: ’11,000 Missiles Ready to Launch’ at Israel, US Targets
By Reza Kahlili
The Iranian newspaper Kayhan reported Thursday that in the first minutes of any American conflict with Iran, “Israel and all U.S. interests around the world will be targeted.” So, there it is, try to stop us from getting a nuclear weapon and we will bomb you! Don't stop us and we promise to destroy your race from the face of the earth.
Makes me feel all warm and fuzzy  inside about these guys, how about you?
The newspaper, which is under the supervision of Iranian supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, OK, so it is officially approved also ran the story under the headline “11,000 Missiles Ready to Launch.”  And on Saturday, Tehran’s ambassador to Lebanon, Qazanfar Roknabadi, confirmed during a public roundtable event that the Islamic regime is prepared to attack both Israel and U.S. bases in the region if its nuclear facilities are attacked. OK, ok, so it is officially official, no matter what we do, they intend to bomb Israel, and attack the USA if we intervene in anyway. So, what would you do? What if your family was threatened by the guy next door…what if he told you that he was going to load his gun and come over and kill you and all your family…what if all the police and everyone you trust to protect your family from this man says “we have talked with him, told him not to do it and we have even withheld food from him until he says he will not hurt you in anyway”. What if this just made the guy angrier and determined to kill you…what would you do? What choices would you contemplate?
Would you wait until he attacked you? or would you look at his actions as he loaded his gun, raised it, pointed it at your family and started to squeeze the trigger…would you shoot 1st, knowing the consequences of what would happen to your family if you did not?
What would you do?

Obama to Israel: Postpone Attack on Iran Until After Campaign Season
What???

White House tells Sunday Times Obama pressed Netanyahu to postpone Israeli attack on Iranian nuclear facilities until after November, adding president ‘might visit Israel in summer’ O for Pete sake…world war 3 (a nuclear war) may break out and Obama is worried about his election??? Give me a break!
Israel will only strike Iranian nuclear facilities in September or after the United States presidential elections in November, a White House official told the British Sunday Times newspaper after a meeting between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Barack Obama last week.  So, the timing for self defiance is based on the USA election, why is that??? According to the report, Obama has taken Israel’s warnings about a possible strike in Iran very seriously. The Washington source added that the president “might visit in the summer to reassure the Israelis that the US commitment to defend Israel is unshakable and thus thwart a possible autumn attack.” Wholly Cow! Now that must make them feel all warm and fussy too! Just to know that Obama is committed to defend Israel…after Israel has had a nuke dropped on them by those who have made it very publicly known that they wish to wipe Israel off the face of the map…Hmmm, go back to that guy that has a loaded gun pointing at your family, what would you do?

By Devin Dwyer
“Because of this law, preventive care is now covered and, yes, that includes preventive care for women: check-ups, mammograms, birth control,” Obama told an applauding crowd of more than 750 campaign donors in Houston. WHAT??????????????? Birth control? Obama is talking about birth control??? Why not put that off until after the election???? Maybe, just maybe there is a couple of more important issues!
“So when you see politicians trying to take us back to the days when this care was more expensive and harder to get for women Who is this guy Obama? Is he so stupid that he doesn’t know that any woman in America can walk into a Wal-Mart and for $9 a month, walk out with birth control pills? And that is only if she is to lazy to walk 2 more blocks and get them for free at the local clinic! — and I know you’re seeing some of that here in Texas — you just remember we can’t let them get away with it,” he said. Sure, forget about Iran and nukes, forget about the unemployment rate, forget about the price of fuel, forget about home forclosures, forget about the national debt and out of control government spending, this is big stuff this…this…birth control pill thing…right?
“This is not just a political debate. This is the defining issue of our times,” Obama said later of the ideological debate with Republicans over issues like health care. “A make or break moment.” Do you think Mr. Obama may have his priority list…messed up just a little?
I don’t know, I really don’t know…I don’t know if we can change America back. Back where we are strong again, back where we have our priorities correct…God, Family and Country!

Obama can’t help his Racist/Anti Christian campaign and views!

As most Americans and Christians celebrated the resurrection of our savior Jesus Christ, Obama did what?
Well, President Obama failed to release a statement or a proclamation recognizing the national observance of Easter Sunday, Christianity's most sacred holiday.
In comparison, the White House has released statements recognizing the observance of major Muslim holidays and released statements in 2010 on Ramadan, Eid-ul-Fitr, Hajj, and Eid-ul-Adha. So, where is his support? Looks to be with Islam and not Christianity!
The White House also failed to release a statement marking Good Friday. However, they did release an eight-paragraph statement heralding Earth Day. Likewise, the president's weekend address mentioned neither Good Friday or Easter. So, where is his mind set and support? Seems to be with anything other than the faith he professes to win voter support.
However, the First Family did attend an Easter Sunday worship service at a Baptist church and last week. We all know how long they attended the Reverend Wight’s church and only left it during Obamas political campaign after the spiritual leader used Gods name in vain several time while denouncing  America. Well, listen to the words from his new church below;



Is it interesting that while most churches speak about and preach the resurrection, Obama main man, speaks about Racism and attacks Fox news and talk radio instead?
Today,  first family will host 30,000 people for the annual White House Easter Egg Roll. The secular celebration of Easter includes readings, games, and a yoga garden. This year's theme, "Get Up and Go!" is part of the first lady’s anti-obesity campaign and will also display produce from the White House garden. So, it is ok to celebrate a rabbit and play games, they just don’t want any part a Christian remembrance or worship!
In 2010, Obama was criticized for releasing an all-inclusive Easter greeting. He reached out to Jews, Muslims, Hindus, and people of no faith at all in a statement about a holiday that is uniquely Christian.
"All of us (No, some of us Mr. Obama, only some of us) are striving to make a way in this world; to build a purposeful and fulfilling life in the fleeting time we have here," Obama said in his 2010 "Easter" message. "A dignified life. A healthy life. A life, true to its potential. And a life that serves other." (No mention of God or our savior) "These are aspirations that stretch back through the ages – aspirations at the heart of Judaism, at the heart of Christianity, at the heart of all the world’s great religions," the president added. So, is Obama a fool or just bowing to Islam again?
When the White House released statements about Muslim holidays, no attempts were made to include Christianity or to mention a spirit of inclusivity. For example, in his 2010 statement on Hajj and Eid-ul-Adha, Obama made no references to Christianity or any other religion. So, do you understand? Obama has no problem telling Christians that all religions are just dandy, but is very careful not to offend Muslims by saying that Christians have a religion just as good as Muslims…Disgusting or perhaps funny in a weird way if he was not so pathetic!
By contrast, former President Bush traditionally included Scripture passages in his Easter messages and made a point to explain what Easter is about. But Obama listens to a hate filled, racist speech instead and only comments on eggs and bunnies…
In 2007, President Bush said, “The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the most important event of the Christian faith.” “On this powerful day, let us join together and give thanks to the Almighty for the glory of His grace,” he added.
In his 2008 Easter message, President Bush said: “The Resurrection of Jesus Christ reminds people around the world of the presence of a faithful God who offers a love more powerful than death. Easter commemorates our Savior's triumph over sin, and we take joy in spending this special time with family and friends and reflecting on the many blessings that fill our lives. During this season of renewal, let us come together and give thanks to the Almighty who made us in His image and redeemed us in His love.”
So, how do you view the difference beliefs and convections of the two men?

And the media stood and applauded yesterday when President Obama and his family went to church for Easter to Shiloh Baptist Church in D.C. to hear that hate filled speech. They think this visit shows that Obama really is a man of faith. (and sheep will be mislead and devoured by wolves)
But while the media rushed to report on the first family’s attendance of the predominately black congregation (and the family’s outfits), what it failed to mention was the views held by the church’s pastor. And while those views are not delivered in the same fiery manner as Obama’s former pastor, Jeremiah Wright, they sound eerily familiar.
Remember what views are those? That the country is still racist, that racists get programs on Fox News, and that Rush Limbaugh is the new KKK.
Do you think, can you believe or except that Obama is an American Christian and will stand up and defend his faith in the light of persecution? I think not

Soros and Obama, EVIL?

You need to read this entire article and learn how Evil men (Obama and Soros) are out to destroy America.



FROM STEVE KROFT ( 60 Minutes ) on CBS!
          
    This is very interesting material. Glenn Beck has been developing material to show all the ties that Soros has through the nation and world along with his goals. This article is written by Steve Kroft from   60 Minutes .  It begins to piece together the rise of Obama and his behavior in leading the nation along with many members of Congress( in particular the Democrats, such as the election of Pelosi recently to the minority leader position in Congress):
 
This is almost too scary to contemplate... like a James Bond theme.
 
If you have wondered where Obama came from and just how he quickly moved from obscurity to President, or why the media is "selective" in what we are told, here is the man who most probably put him there and is responsible. He controls President Obama's every move. Think this is absurd?   Invest a few minutes and read this. You won't regret it.
 
Who is Obama? Obama is a puppet and here is the explanation of the man or demon that pulls his strings. It's not by chance that Obama can manipulate the world. I don't think he knows how to tie his shoe laces. After reading this and Obama's reluctance to accept help on the oil spill you wonder if the spill is part of the plan to destroy the US ?  "In history, nothing happens by accident. If it  happened, you can bet someone planned it." [ Franklin Delano Roosevelt ]  

Who Is George Soros? He brought the market down in 2 days. Here is what CBS' Mr. Steve Kroft's research has turned up. It's a bit of a read, and it took 4 months to put it together. "The main obstacle to a stable and just world order is the United States ." [George Soros]

George Soros is an evil man.  He's anti-God, anti-family, anti-American, and anti-good.  He killed and robbed his own Jewish people. What we have in Soros, is a multi-billionaire atheist, with skewed moral values, and a sociopath's lack of conscience. He considers himself to be an elitist world-class philosopher, despises the American way, and just loves to do social engineering and change cultures.
 
György Schwartz, better known to the world as George Soros, was born August 12, 1930 in Hungary .  Soros' father, Tivadar, was a fervent practitioner of the Esperanto language invented in 1887, and designed to be the first global language, free of any national identity. The Schwartz's, who were non-practicing Jews, changed the family name to Soros, in order to facilitate assimilation into the Gentile population, as the Nazis spread into Hungary during the 1930s.
 
When Hitler's henchman Adolf Eichmann arrived in Hungary , to oversee the murder of that country's Jews, George Soros ended up with a man whose job was confiscating property from the Jewish population. Soros went with him on his rounds.
 
Soros has repeatedly called 1944, "(T)he best year of his life."  Seventy percent of Mr. Soros's fellow Jews in Hungary , nearly a half-million human beings, were annihilated in that year, yet he gives no sign that this put any damper on his elation, either at the time or indeed in retrospect.  During an interview with   Sixty Minutes' , Steve Kroft, Soros was asked about  his "best year."
 
KROFT: My understanding is that you went out with this protector of yours who swore that you were his adopted godson.  
SOROS: Yes.  Yes.
    
KROFT: Went out, in fact, and helped in the confiscation of property from your fellow Jews, friends and neighbors.  
SOROS: Yes. That's right.  Yes.

KROFT: I mean, that sounds like an experience that would send lots of people to the psychiatric couch for many, many, years. Was it difficult?
SOROS: No, not at all. Not at all, I  rather enjoyed it.
 
KROFT: No feelings of guilt?
SOROS: No, only feelings of absolute power.
 
In his article, Muravchik describes how Soros  has admitted to having carried some rather "potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood, which I felt I had to control, otherwise they might get me in trouble." Be that as it may. After WWII, Soros attended the London School of Economics, where he fell  under the thrall of fellow atheist and Hungarian, Karl Popper, one of his professors. Popper was a mentor to Soros until Popper's death in 1994. Two of Popper's most influential teachings concerned  "the open society," and fallibilism.
 
Fallibilism is the  philosophical doctrine that all claims of knowledge could, in principle, be mistaken. (Then again, I could be wrong about that.)   The "open society" basically refers to a "test and evaluate" approach to social engineering. Regarding "open society", Roy Childs writes, "Since the Second World War, most of the Western democracies have followed Popper's advice about piecemeal social engineering and democratic social reform, and it has gotten them into a grand mess."
 
In 1956 Soros moved to New York City , where he worked on Wall Street, and started amassing his fortune. He specialized in hedge funds and currency speculation.  Soros is absolutely ruthless, amoral, and clever in his business dealings, and quickly made his fortune. By the 1980's he was well on his way to becoming the global powerhouse that he is today.
 
In an article Kyle-Anne Shiver wrote for The American Thinker, she says, "Soros made his first billion in 1992 by shorting the British pound with leveraged billions in financial bets, and became known as the man who broke the Bank of England .  He broke it on the backs of hard-working British citizens who immediately saw their homes severely devalued and their life savings cut drastically, almost overnight."

In 1994 Soros crowed in The New Republic , that "the former Soviet Empire is now called the Soros Empire." The Russia-gate scandal in 1999, which almost collapsed the Russian economy, was labeled by Rep. Jim Leach, then head of the House Banking Committee, to be "one of the greatest social robberies in human history. "The "Soros Empire" indeed. In 1997 Soros almost destroyed the economies of Thailand and Malaysia .  At the time, Malaysia 's Prime Minister, Mahathir Mohammad, called Soros "a villain, and a moron." Thai activist Weng Tojirakarn said, "We regard George Soros as a kind of Dracula. He sucks the  blood from the people."
 
The website Greek National Pride reports, "[Soros] was part of the full court press that dismantled Yugoslavia and caused trouble in Georgia , Ukraine and  Myanmar [ Burma ].  Calling himself a philanthropist, Soros' role is to tighten the ideological stranglehold of globalization and the   New World Order   while promoting his own financial gain. He is without conscience; a capitalist who functions with absolute amorality."
 
France has upheld an earlier conviction against Soros for felony insider trading.  Soros was fined 2.9 million dollars. Recently, his native Hungary fined Soros 2.2 million dollars for "illegal market manipulation." Elizabeth Crum writes that the Hungarian economy has been in a state of transition as the country seeks to become more financially stable and westernized. [Soros'] deliberately driving down the share price of its largest bank put Hungary 's economy into a wicked tailspin, one from which it is still trying to recover.
 
My point here is that Soros is a planetary parasite. His grasp, greed, and gluttony have a global reach.  But what about America ?  Soros told Australia 's national newspaper   The Australian , " America , as the centre of  the globalized financial markets, was sucking up the savings of the world. This is now over. The game is out," he said, adding that the time has come for "a very serious adjustment" in American's consumption habits.  He implied that he was the one with the  power to bring this about."  
Soros: "World financial crisis was "stimulating" and "in a way, the culmination of my life's work."  
Obama has recently promised 10 billion of our tax dollars to Brazil , in order to give them a leg-up in expanding their offshore oil fields. Obama's largesse towards Brazil came shortly after his political financial backer, George Soros, invested heavily in Brazilian oil (Pet rob ras).
 
Tait Trussel writes, "The Pet rob ras loan may be a windfall for Soros and Brazil , but it is a bad deal for the U. S. The American Petroleum Institute estimates that oil exploration in the U S could create 160,000 new, well-paying jobs, as well as $1.7 trillion in revenues to federal, state, and local governments, all while fostering greater energy security and independence."
 
A blog you might want to keep an eye on is   SorosWatch.com. Their mission: "This blog is dedicated to all who have suffered due to the ruthless financial pursuits of George Soros. Your stories are many and varied, but the theme is the same: the destructive power of greed without  conscience. We pledge to tirelessly watch Soros wherever he goes and to print the truth in the hope that he will one day be made to stop  preying upon the world's poor, that justice will be served."
 
Back to America . Soros has been actively working to destroy America from the inside out for some years now. People have been warning us. Two years ago, news sources reported that "Soros [is] an extremist who wants open borders, a one-world foreign policy, legalized drugs, euthanasia, and on and on. This is off-the-chart dangerous." In 1997 Rachel Ehrenfeld wrote, "Soros uses his philanthropy to change or more accurately, deconstruct the moral values and attitudes of the Western world, and particularly of the American people. His "open society" is not about freedom; it is about license. His vision rejects the notion of ordered liberty, in favor of a PROGRESSIVE ideology of rights and entitlements."  
Perhaps the most important of these "whistle blowers" are David Horowitz and Richard Poe. Their book   The Shadow Party   outlines in detail how Soros hijacked the Democratic Party, and now owns it lock, stock, and barrel. Soros has been packing the Democratic Party with radicals, and ousting moderate Democrats for years. The Shadow Party became the Shadow Government, which recently became the Obama Administration.  
Discover The Networks.org  (another good source) writes, "By his [Soros'] own admission, he helped engineer coups in Slovakia , Croatia , Georgia , and  Yugoslavia . When Soros targets a country for "regime change," he begins by creating a shadow government, a fully formed government-in-exile, ready to assume power when the opportunity arises. The Shadow Party he has built in America greatly resembles those he has created in other countries prior to instigating a coup."  
The November 2008 edition of the German magazine   Der Spiegel , in which Soros gives his opinion on what the next POTUS (President of the U. S. ) should do after taking office. "I think we need a large stimulus package." Soros thought that around 600 billion dollars would be about right. Soros also said that, "I think Obama presents us a great opportunity to finally deal with global warming and energy dependence.  The U. S. needs a cap and trade system with auctioning of licenses for emissions rights."
Although Soros doesn't (yet) own the Republican Party, like he does the Democrats, make no mistake, his tentacles are spread throughout the Republican Party as well.  
Soros is a partner in the Carlyle Group where he has invested more than 100 million dollars. According to an article by   The Baltimore Chronicle 's Alice Cherbonnier, the Carlye Group is run by "a veritable who's who of former Republican leaders," from CIA man Frank Carlucci, to CIA head [and ex-President] George Bush, Sr.
 
In late 2006, Soros bought about 2 million shares of Halliburton, Dick Cheney's old stomping grounds. When the Democrats and Republicans held their conventions in 2000, Soros held Shadow Party conventions in the same cities, at the same time. In 2008, Soros donated $5,000,000,000 ( that's   five billion   ) to the  Democratic National Committee, DNC, to insure Obama's win and wins for many other Alinsky trained Radical Rules, Anti-American Socialists. George has been contributing a $ billion plus to the DNC since Clinton came on the scene.
 
Soros has dirtied both sides of the aisle, trust me. And if that weren't bad enough, he has long held connections with the CIA. And I mustn't forget to mention Soros' involvement with the MSM (Main Stream Media), the entertainment industry (e.g., he owns 2.6 million shares of Time  Warner), and the various political advertising organizations he funnels millions to.  In short, George Soros controls or influences most of the MSM.  Little wonder they ignore the TEA PARTY, Soro's NEMESIS.  As Matthew Vadum writes, "The liberal billionaire-turned-philanthropist has been buying up media properties for years in order to drive home his message to the American public that they are too materialistic, too wasteful, too selfish, and too stupid to decide for themselves how to run their own lives."
 
Richard Poe writes, "Soros' private philanthropy, totaling nearly $5 billion, continues undermining America 's traditional Western  values. His giving has provided funding of abortion rights, atheism, drug legalization, sex education, euthanasia, feminism, gun control,  globalization, mass immigration, gay marriage and other radical experiments in social engineering."  
Some of the many NGOs (Non-Government Organizations) that Soros funds with his billions are:   MoveOn.org, the Apollo Alliance , Media Matters for America , the Tides Foundation, the ACLU, ACORN, PDIA (Project on Death In America ), La Raza, and many more. For a more complete list, with  brief descriptions of the NGOs, go to   DiscoverTheNetworks.org.
Poe continues, "Through his global web of Open Society Institutes and Open Society Foundations, Soros has  spent 25 years recruiting, training, indoctrinating and installing a  network of loyal operatives in 50 countries, placing them in positions of influence and power in media, government, finance and  academia."
 
Without Soros' money, would the Saul Alinsky's Chicago machine still be rolling? Would SEIU, ACORN, and La Raza still be pursuing their nefarious activities? Would Big Money and lobbyists still be corrupting government? Would our college campuses still be retirement homes for 1960s radicals?  
America stands at the brink of an abyss, and that fact is directly attributable to Soros. Soros has vigorously, cleverly, and insidiously planned the ruination of America and his puppet, Barack Obama is leading the way.
 
The words of Patrick Henry are apropos, "Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?  Forbid it, almighty God!  I know not what course others may take, but as for me,
give me liberty, or give me death!" 

By Aaron Klein
Philanthropist billionaire George Soros is a primary funder and key proponent of the global organization that promotes the military doctrine used by the Obama administration to justify the recent airstrikes targeting the regime of Moammar Gadhafi in Libya.
The activist who founded and coined the name of the doctrine, "Responsibility to Protect," sits on several key organizations alongside Soros.
Also, the Soros-funded global group that promotes Responsibility to Protect is closely tied to Samantha Power, the National Security Council special adviser to Obama on human rights.
Power has been a champion of the doctrine and is, herself, deeply tied to the doctrine's founder.
According to reports, Power was instrumental in convincing Obama to act against Libya.
The Responsibility to Protect doctrine has been described by its founders and proponents, including Soros, as promoting global governance while allowing the international community to penetrate a nation state's borders under certain conditions.

The View, Behar and Liberals

OK, so I have never watched this show and never will. Still, I have seen and have been sent clips to (view). The one with Bill O was great as he  just puts it out there and the libs freak out...walk off and refuse any intelligent conversation about the issue.
It is very typical the left wing. Moderates really don't have the spine to make such forceful statements. They, just like Barbra did, just set there and go with the flow. Then look for an opportunity or place to seek middle ground, (view) themselves as above the fray. Hmmm, kinda going off on them today...I just detest people who don't stand up and take a position before they test the wind.


Off track here...this blog is about Liberals and their hypocritical  stances.
Here a liberal, not just on social issues but a full blown crazy left wind nut kind of liberal, attacking the Bible. She says the Bible causes bulling and that it is just terrible. It is a short clip but she just goes off on how bad Christians are.







Below shows how that very open minded, tolerant woman views a person running for office in America, that she disagrees with.
How?
By calling her a bitch and challenging her to “come to New York and do it” and saying “she going to hell this bitch, she’s going to hell”.

There, there is a clear cut difference between Liberal ideas and conservative ideas and conduct. No wonder our school system is suffering so…
