<p>I AM WOMAN&#8230;.HEAR ME ROARRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!</p>
<p>Well folks, Pelosi has been sworn in as Speaker of the House, and Democrats are now in control of congress!!  </p>
<p>Sooo&#8230;.what can we expect for the next two years?  Well, if you are a left wing liberal, you will most likely have everything your heart desires (or THINKS it desires)&#8230;..</p>
<p>Open borders &#8211; WILL we be safer here at home when our border security is cut to the bone, further than it is?</p>
<p>Amnesty for ILLEGALS &#8211; Which unfortunately Bush and Pelosi will be holding hands together showing how &#8220;bipartisan&#8221; they are and how &#8220;well they work together&#8221;!</p>
<p>Higher minimum wage &#8211; Which will force many smaller businesses to either lay off people that this wage was suppose to help, OR to increase the goods to the consumer so we will ALL be paying more!</p>
<p>Weaker National Security, Higher Taxes, the Destruction of the American Family, etc, etc, etc&#8230;.</p>
<p>&#8230;.the REST of us will monitor CLOSELY every attempted move that is to be made and will make our voices heard and known!!  We will fight to protect our country, its sovereignty, and our AMERICAN way of life despite the &#8220;Demakooks&#8221; that are currently in office!! </p>
<p>We may be in for a bumpy ride folks, but TOGETHER we can make a difference&#8230;&#8230;.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p>Well, here we are&#8230;2006 is now behind us and we are at the beginning of a new and beautiful year!!</p>
<p>We can either sit back and let the world go by, gripe and complain about the injustices in our country, never lifting a finger to make a change&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p>OR, we can chose to stand up and make a difference! No longer can we, or should we, be afraid to speak out against the corruption in our society, against those that are attempting to take our nation down an indestructible path of no return, against those that want to turn our nation into a &#8220;one world order&#8221;, or against those that have a &#8220;anything I want is okay&#8221; attitude!!  </p>
<p>There is right and wrong in our society, and our nation&#8217;s future depends on us standing up for the sovereignty of our country and fighting against the evil that attempts to infiltrate our very hearts and minds. </p>
<p>Yes, there will be those that hate what &#8220;we&#8221; stand for and make poor attempts at name calling and pulling out their &#8220;play cards&#8221;&#8230;.but &#8220;we&#8221; must stand firm and strong in our convictions of right and wrong!!</p>
<p>So my friends, as we begin our journey into 2007 I wish all of you God&#8217;s blessings and MAY GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><font color="990000">The dispute over a mosque and the Friday Night Pig Races in Katy, TX has made the rounds from coast to coast!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="990000">There are definitely people, of which I am among, that support Mr. Craig Baker and his neighbors!!  Mr. Baker&#8217;s idea of having Friday Night Pig Races will bring a lot of fun, laughter and enjoyment to the community!!</p>
<p></font><font color="990000"> <strong>&#8220;TIVO your favorite show and Come on down to the Friday Night Pig Races&#8230;..great family fun for one and all&#8221;!!! </strong></p>
<p></font><font color="990000">Then, there are others who think Mr. Baker and his neighbors are being &#8220;pig headed&#8221;, negating any of their concerns regarding the road safety, drainage problems, etc.  These are the same narrow minded people who, most likely, do not have the threat of a mosque in their neighborhood and are under the mind set of the far left radical liberals in their &#8220;everything goes&#8221; attitude!!  These are the exact same people that throw out the &#8220;..immigrants have made America&#8221;&#8230;&#8221;&#8230;freedom of religion&#8221;&#8230;&#8221;&#8230;&#8221;..multiculturalism&#8221;, blah..blah..blah&#8230;!!</p>
<p></font><font color="990000">MSNBC / AP has done a recent press release entitled: <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/16095716/"><font color="003399">&#8220;<strong>Houston Suburb in dispute over mosque plan</strong>&#8220;.  </font></a></p>
<p></font><font color="990000">First of all, we ALL KNOW how unbiased MSNBC is and what a great REPUTATION the Associated Press has, especially in lieu over their most recent scandal regarding the fake Capt. Jamil Hussein!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="990000">However, an AP reporter did contact Mr. Baker (regarding his Pig Races) and the site owner regarding his web site which the reporter called &#8220;anti-islamic&#8221;.</p>
<p></font><font color="990000">This report starts out: </p>
<blockquote><p><font color="000000">&#8220;A plan to build a mosque in this Houston suburb has triggered a neighborhood dispute, <strong>with community members warning the place will become a terrorist hotbed</strong>&#8230;&#8221;</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="990000">Could you PLEASE show us where the community at Bakers Road has called the building of this mosque a &#8220;terrorist hotbed&#8221;&#8230;or is this <strong>YOUR slant </strong>in your attempt to make them look bigoted and racists?  </p>
<blockquote><p><font color="000000">&#8220;But one resident has set up an anti-Islamic Web site with an odometer-like counter that keeps track of terrorist attacks since Sept. 11.&#8221;</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="990000">To inform this reporter, there are numerous web sites that have this &#8220;counter&#8221; on them.  It is an &#8220;Islamic Terrorist&#8221; counter.  Since Muslims are a people of &#8220;peace&#8221; and Islam is a religion of &#8220;peace&#8221; that has apparently been &#8220;taken over by the radical extremists&#8221;, what is the problem here and why aren&#8217;t you speaking out against these radical extremists that have &#8220;kidnapped&#8221; your &#8220;peaceful&#8221; religion for the sole intent to do harm to America and the infidels?  Where is the story about the radical extremists?  </p>
<p></font><font color="990000">Regarding the use for the 11 acre site, the AP reporter writes: </p>
<blockquote><p><font color="000000">&#8220;Fotouh vowed to press ahead with plans for a mosque on the 11-acre site, as well as a community center that would offer after-school activities, housing for senior citizens, a fitness center and an Islamic school.&#8221;</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="990000">I hate to break THIS to you, but 11 acres is NOT a lot of land to build what they are apparently wanting, along with parking, etc.  So how do they plan on getting more land for their &#8220;expansion&#8221;&#8230;.hmmm&#8230;maybe BUYING off other people&#8217;s property?  </p>
<p></font><font color="990000">Additional &#8220;slant&#8221; from the AP:</p>
<blockquote><p><font color="000000">&#8220;A few complaints about the mosque project have also trickled in to Harris County offices: The “Coming Soon” sign was on government property; <strong>the parking lot gravel was piled up without a permit;</strong>&#8230;.&#8221;</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="990000">The truth: <strong>The KIA had commenced building a parking area </strong>for the home that has been converted in to a Mosque.  The inspector arrived at approximately 3:00pm on the 9th and RED TAGGED them for performing construction without proper permits. <strong>&#8230;(they) were  told </strong>by the representative from County Commissioner&#8217;s office (Steve Radack) <strong>that absolutely no construction could be performed on the property without filing complete Plat plans, which had to be approved.</strong> The KIA did no such thing. ..<strong>The KIA continued working on the parking area even after having been told by the county inspector to stop</strong>.  See full article under the blog portion of the site to  <a href="http://www.katyislamicassociation.net/"><font color="003399"><strong>K.I.A. breaking the law</strong>!</font></a> complete with photos and video.  </p>
<p></font><font color="990000">So&#8230;why the biased slant from the AP on the K.I.A. (the &#8220;underdogs&#8221; they claim) and the Katy Pig Races?  Who reported on this story:  </p>
<p></font><font color="990000">According to Mr. Smith of the Katy Islamic Association.net web site:</p>
<blockquote><p><font color="000000">I would like to take a moment to introduce Mrs. <strong>Rasha Madkour. She is the reporter for the Associated Press that contacted both Mr. Craig Baker and KIA.NET. </strong>Mrs. Madkour has proven to be incompetent as a reporter for the simple fact that <strong>she did not remain objective </strong>while reporting on the topic of her article in AP. <strong>She used her position to support her own cause and agenda.</strong> The <strong>article was slanted, taken out of context and complete with misinformation.</strong> She has made this site about what it was not intended to be. Her article is no more than cheap sensationalism aimed at inciting and distracting people from the real issues. Now the site has taken a turn. We shall see where the public takes it. Please refer to the top, right of the Forums page where it is clearly stated what the forum is to be used for. Despite her efforts, I am must report that the Pros outweigh the Cons approximately 20 to 1. Below, <strong>you will find our email conversation.</strong> &#8230;</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="990000">Read the <strong>TRUTH</strong> about what was said at <a href="http://www.katyislamicassociation.net/"><font color="003399"><strong>katyislamicassociation.net</strong></font></a></p>
<p></font><font color="990000"><strong>NOW&#8230;..in regards to Mr. Craig Baker and his Friday Night Pig Races:</strong></p>
<p></font><font color="990000">AP writes: </p>
<blockquote><p><font color="000000">The dispute began when the group asked Baker to remove his cattle from their newly bought land. Baker agreed but mistakenly thought the Muslims also wanted him off the land his family has lived on for more than 100 years. The rumor spread. </p>
<p></font><font color="000000">Though he now concedes the Muslims are probably not after his land, Baker said he is obligated to go through with the pig races, probably within the next few weeks, because “I would be like a total idiot if I didn’t. I’d be the laughingstock now because I’ve gone too far.”</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="990000">Now the <strong>TRUTH</strong> as reported by Mr. Baker, himself:  </p>
<p></font><font color="990000">(snipets):  </p>
<blockquote><p><font color="000000">&#8220;&#8230;they said that their ultimate dream is to build a parking lot, a new community center, an athletic facility, a school, and a mosque. <strong>They felt that they were going to need a total of 25 acres to complete this project</strong>, which might take them as long as five years to complete. </p>
<p></font><font color="000000">&#8220;While I was walking these men out, <strong>I offered to give them some granite fill, free of charge for their new driveway that they had planned. Then Mr. Fotough said that it was probably a good idea for me to start thinking about packing up my business, along with my family and moving somewhere further out in the country.</strong> They felt that a mosque and a marble shop did not go well together. He told me he was from Egypt and his partner was from Pakistan, and that they were bringing many new families in from as far as 5,000 miles away. He went on to say that many of these new people that they would be bringing in would be unfamiliar with many of the local customs, and/or ways of doing things, and that most would not be able to speak English at first.</p>
<p></font><font color="000000">On the following Wednesday, 10/04/06, a new collector’s crystal wall clock was delivered to my office as a gift. The card attached said: To: Craig Baker From: New Neighbors .</p>
<p></font><font color="000000">I immediately typed up a nice thank you note and returned the clock that same day. I had planned on just letting the other matter die of natural causes right then and there.</p>
<p></font><font color="000000"><strong>Upon learning that I was called a liar</strong> I became determined to make a statement to everyone that I was not leaving. Not only that, I am taking a stand. I will use my property as I see fit. I went to a local printing shop and had a huge banner made up. The banner states “COMING SOON WEEKLY FRIDAY NIGHT PIG RACING.” </p>
<p></font><font color="000000">&#8230;a <strong>demand letter from their attorney </strong>Mathew Kornhauser. Kornhauser <strong>made the demand that I remove my pigs from my land immediately.</strong> Should I fail to do so his client will contact the appropriate authorities and take what ever measures necessary to protect their interest. </p>
<p></font><font color="000000">Now I have made the offer in writing, on the radio, and on TV that <strong>I will pay for three lie detector test. One for each of the owners, and one for me. </strong>The sole question to be asked is: <strong>Did they, on 09/29/06 tell me that I should consider packing up my business and my family and moving?</strong></p>
<p></font><font color="000000">Then we will see who is lying &amp; who is telling the truth.</p>
<p></font><font color="000000"><strong>My Moslem neighbors have decided to take their fight with me to the media,</strong> hoping that by making this fight public I will come off as a red neck racist from Texas.</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="990000">See Mr. Baker&#8217;s Web page to see his FULL statement regarding the incidents between him and the K.I.A. at <a href="http://www.americanpigrace.com/"><font color="003399"><strong>American Pig Race</strong>.</font></a></p>
<p></font><font color="990000">So, will Mr. Yousuf Shaikh and Mr. Kamel Fotough, who are so quick in their attempts to look like the &#8220;poor mistreated new neighbors&#8221; have the guts and backbone to take Mr. Baker up on his offer of a lie detector test, paid for by Mr. Baker?   </p>
<p></font><font color="990000">Maybe those of you that are so quick to jump and call Mr. Baker and his neighbors every racist name you can think of should beginning <strong>jumping on the two gentlemen from the K.I.A. to stand up and be willing to let the TRUTH be known </strong>by all!!  What are THEY afraid of?? <strong>Mr. Baker apparently has no fears about the TRUTH!!</strong> </p>
<p></font><font color="990000">For those radical left liberals that read this blog&#8230;.keep on those rose colored glasses and continue to look foolish!!  You, too, must be afraid of the truth!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="990000"><strong>My support is totally behind Mr. Baker, his neighbors and friends!!  I will also keep everyone updated about the Pig Races!!  </strong></p>
<p></font><font color="990000">Another Read on this subject:  <a href="http://americaholds.blogspot.com/2006/12/here-piggy-piggy-piggy.html"><font color="003399"><strong>Here piggy, piggy</strong></font></a>  by No Apology.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><font color="FF3399">&#8220;<strong>Go Mr. Baker&#8230;go!!  We love you&#8230;take me..take me!!&#8221; screams all the little piggies, &#8220;We don&#8217;t want to go to market&#8230;we want to go to Katy! We can run really fast&#8230;!!&#8221;</strong></p>
<p></font><font color="660066">As you can see, in the &#8220;pig world&#8221; a new day has dawned and they are all scrambling, hoping to be picked for the Friday Night Pig Races that Craig Baker will be starting soon in Katy, Texas!  </p>
<p></font><font color="660066">It&#8217;s amazing how the issue has united many across the country&#8230;..<strong>who knew it would take &#8220;Pig Races&#8221; for people to finally begin waking up and see what is happening to our neighborhoods and our Country!!</strong></p>
<p></font><font color="660066">Of course, there are those that say Mr. Baker and his neighbors are being &#8220;bigoted and racists&#8221;, &#8220;hate filled&#8221;, &#8220;narrow minded&#8221;, etc, etc&#8230;. I&#8217;m sure these are the SAME people that see no problem with Keith Ellison taking the Koran to his swearing in ceremony for Congress!  I am also sure these are the SAME people who do not have the threat of a mosque and the 5 daily calls to prayer going up next to them or in their neighborhoods!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="660066">There are MANY issues of concern with the local residents in this community, and rightly so, and it is NOT just because this is a mosque (although anyone would be lying to say that was not a small part)!! I would invite everyone over to <a href="http://katyislamicassociation.net"><font color="003300">Katy Islamic Association.net</font></a> </font><font color="660066">which is a web site set up AGAINST the mosque being put up, showing ALL the concerns of the residents, hear the &#8220;call to prayer&#8221; that will be blasted through the community, what happened at the town hall meeting, along with issues of K.I.A. breaking the law by starting construction without the proper permits, etc. </p>
<p></font><font color="660066">Do those of you that call Mr. Baker and his neighbors &#8220;hate filled and racists&#8221; have the nerve to learn the truth?</p>
<p></font><font color="660066">Why are you not taking up for Mr. Baker and his neighbors, where are THEIR rights?  What about THEIR concerns? </p>
<p></font><font color="660066">It appears that so many, usually the &#8220;far left every thing goes lunitics&#8221; are quick to jump up and down and scream racists when anyone tries protecting our nation, our country, our homes and livelihood!!</p>
<p></font><font color="660066">I remind you, AGAIN, of what a CAIR Chairman stated in 1998 about the Islamic relgion and the Koran: </p>
<blockquote><p><font color="FF0000">CAIR Chairman Omar M. Ahmad told a crowd of California Muslims in July 1998, <strong>“Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Koran . . . should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth.”</strong></font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="660066">We were apparently to blind to see back then&#8230;..but <strong>it is time to remove the &#8220;rose colored shades&#8221; covering our eyes and wake up to the invasion.</strong>..not only by the TRUE meaning and intent of Islam, the Koran and the Islamic extremists but also the invasion by the illegal aliens due to the apparent lack of interest in our security and borders by many of our politicians. </font></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><font color="330000">Political correctness (also politically correct or PC) is a term used to describe language, or behavior, which is claimed to be calculated to provide a minimum of offense, particularly to the racial, cultural, or other identity groups being described.  <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_correctness"><font color="9900FF">Wikipedia</font></a></p>
<p></font><font color="330000">So we have:</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">Holiday&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..vs&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.CHRISTMAS<br />
Undocumented Workers&#8230;.vs&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;..ILLEGAL ALIEN<br />
Insurgents……………&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.vs………… TERRORISTS<br />
Situation………………&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.vs………….WAR ON TERROR<br />
Immigration Reform…&#8230;&#8230;..vs…………..AMNESTY<br />
Misunderstood Religion…&#8230;vs…..…..….RADICAL ISLAMIC VIEWS<br />
Withdraw in Iraq……&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;vs…………..CUT AND RUN</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">The above are just SOME of the <strong>“politically correct” language </strong>running around….</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">What about some of the <strong>“politically correct” behavior</strong> we have seen:</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">Breakfast with Santa turned into “Winter Wonderland Breakfast due to complaints of ONE person who considered Santa religious.  </p>
<p></font><font color="330000">City’s around the country are not displaying “Nativity” scenes in fear of lawsuits and offending the minority.</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">City ordinance “noise levels” have been “revised” despite citizen complaints, so that mosque’s can to their “call to prayer” 5 times per day over loud speakers. </p>
<p></font><font color="330000">Ten Commandments statues and plaques ordered removed from some schools and city property.</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">The Pledge of Allegiance under attack by atheists as “unconstitutional”, some children refuse to stand during pledge.</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">Illegal Aliens take to the streets in 2006 around AMERICA and no one does anything about the disruption because it is “their right to protest”.</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">Disneyland and Disneyworld cater to gays and lesbians..a place that is famous for catering to our children</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">Traditional “marriage” under attack </p>
<p></font><font color="330000">Press “1” for English…..</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">And, as we know and see everyday…this list goes on!!</p>
<p>**************************************************</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">So the question….what is all this Politically Correct behavior doing to the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA? </p>
<p></font><font color="330000">We have, unfortunately, catered to, and are thus becoming, an “anything I want to do goes, and to hell with everyone else” society.  This has been, and continues to be a slipper slope that we have allowed ourselves to go down!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="330000"><strong>ILLEGAL aliens </strong>want rights, even though they are not here legally in this country…what do our politicians do…………..free health care, anchor babies, free education, a matricula id, and now, even loans thru banks being considered and some approved!!  All at the cost of the US Taxpayer!!</p>
<p></font><font color="330000"><strong>CHRISTMAS</strong> is under attack by  those who hate the judeo-christian religion.  Therefore the beauty of a nativity scene and soothing sounds of songs like “Silent Night” are indeed “silent” in many of the malls, the restaurants and other places that people gather!  The majority of us who love Christmas and love the meaning of Christmas, while still enjoying all the festivities including gift giving and even Santa are being “crushed” under the weight of those who want to be “politically correct” despite our country’s deep seeded traditions.</p>
<p></font><font color="330000"><strong>MARRIAGE </strong>is being attacked by the gays and lesbians in an attempt to change the definition of what marriage is.  The long standing traditional values that make up the core of a family are being ridiculed and laughed at for the “live and let live” attitude.  Divorce has become an “easy out” and “infidelity” a “cure” for the boredoms of married life.  Are we becoming a “Sodom and Gomorrah” society?  I remember as a kid learning to spell, to remember family as: <strong>F</strong>ather <strong>A</strong>nd <strong>M</strong>other <strong>I</strong> <strong>L</strong>ove <strong>Y</strong>ou</p>
<p></font><font color="330000"><strong>RELIGION</strong>, the judeo-christian founding of  our country and nation, is under attack!  The Ten Commandants have had a “forced” removal from city properties and schools as “not to offend” the non-religious, the atheist, or the “immigrants” from other countries.  They use the excuse “separation of church and state” for these “forced” removals but I do not believe our founding fathers would have agreed.  Prayer in our schools has been abolished and even challenged at graduations and valedictorian speeches.  It appears the “Christian” religion is the only one that is ever under a microscope and interfered with. </p>
<p></font><font color="330000"><strong>The PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE and our FLAG </strong>are constantly under attack.  The atheists use the excuse they don’t like “under God” in the pledge, but I expect that that real reason is the hate of our country.  Some feel they do not need to stand, even out of respect, when the Pledge is recited and they teach their children this same hate type action.  There are those that think it is a “freedom of speech” right to desecrate and burn our Flag to protest not even thinking, or caring, that they are desecrating and dishonoring what our Flag stands for and the men and women that have died protecting its honor and the freedoms of the American people.</p>
<p>***************************************************</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">I understand that our great nation is made up of immigrants from all over the world.  However, the difference between “back in the day” and “today” is that the immigrants that came to our country “back in the day” wanted nothing more than to be Americans. </p>
<p></font><font color="330000">They loved this country, loved what what this country stood for and wanted the “American Dream” for themselves and their family.  They assimilated into the American culture and into American society, which does not mean they forgot their past cultures or traditions, but had they wanted to continue in their past they would never have immigrated to America…they wanted to be AMERICANS!!</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">“Todays” immigrants want everything that America has to offer, BUT they want America to assimilate to THEIR way of life!!  Many refuse to learn the language of our country (English), but want our country to cater to their language.  They want what America has to offer, but many want it handed to them on a silver platter and they think that ruining OUR culture and traditions to fit their own wants, needs and beliefs is perfectly acceptable!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="330000"><strong>WE, as Americans, must wake up and fight to protect our country, its values, traditions and its sovereignty. </strong> We must keep a close eye on the politicians, both federal, state and local, continue to hound them to do the right thing for this country and vote them out of office if they do not comply.  We must ban together, as many have done by blogging, writing our representatives, getting involved in forums and groups, and continue to get the word out and educating people!!  <strong>If we don’t we will wake up one day and not know what country we are living in!!  </strong><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><font color="333333">Not surprisingly, Dennis Prager has been called every name in the &#8220;book&#8221; by lefty bloggers everywhere!!  There are even some conversatives that don&#8217;t see the &#8220;hoop-la&#8221; over this issue (Koran vs. Bible) and have stated so!  </p>
<p></font><font color="333333">There are still many of us out there that still see this as a &#8220;slap in the face&#8221; to America and the American people!!  As is our right, we will continue to view this as an outrage in an attempt to protect our country from the &#8220;slippery slope&#8221; it is apparently headed down!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="333333">But NOW, not surprisingly&#8230;.CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) has &#8220;jumped into the mix&#8221; calling for Dennis Prager&#8217;s (who is Jewish, by the way) removal from the US Holocaust Museum council for his &#8220;bigoted, intolerant and devisive views..&#8221;!!   </p>
<p></font><font color="333333">WHAT?????  Isn&#8217;t this the &#8220;pot calling the kettle black&#8221;&#8230;.bigoted, intolerant and devisive..????</p>
<p></font><font color="333333">I think Mike Gallagher is right in his post, <a href="http://mikegallagher.townhall.com/blog/g/ddba5c8d-2d4d-403e-b0a8-50a730308ace"><font color="990099">Dennis Prager being &#8220;targeted&#8221;?</font></a></font><font color="333333"> when he writes:  </p>
<blockquote><p><font color="333333">You gotta hand it to some of these groups:  they have some nerve.  After all, it takes a lot of gall for a Muslim to try and dictate to a Jewish organization who they should and shouldn&#8217;t have on their governing board.  </p>
<p></font><font color="333333">Like the thousands of illegal immigrants waving Mexican flags in the streets of America this summer demanding &#8220;rights&#8221;, there seems to be no shortage of &#8220;hutzpuh&#8221; on the part of some Muslim activists in our country.</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="333333">Dennis Prager in his article <a href="http://www.townhall.com/columnists/column.aspx?UrlTitle=a_response_to_my_many_critics_-_and_a_solution&amp;ns=DennisPrager&amp;dt=12/05/2006&amp;page=2"><font color="990099">&#8220;A response to my many critics-and a solution&#8221;</font></a> </font><font color="333333">shows he is neither bigoted nor racist!  It appears from &#8220;some&#8221; of the comments to his article there are those that will not see the truth if it slaps them in the face!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="333333">He also makes a point in stating:</p>
<blockquote><p><font color="333333">I am for no law to be passed to prevent Keith Ellison or anyone else from bringing any book he wants to his swearing-in, whether actual or ceremonial. But neither I nor tens of millions of other Americans will watch in silence as the Bible is replaced with another religious text for the first time since George Washington brought a Bible to his swearing-in. It is not I, but Keith Ellison, who has engaged in disuniting the country. &#8230;&#8230;</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="333333">NOW&#8230;for those of you who applaud CAIR for getting involved, let&#8217;s not forget who and what CAIR is and has been!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="333333">Their &#8220;vision and mission&#8221; statement: &#8220;CAIR&#8217;s vision is to be a leading advocate for justice and mutual understanding.  CAIR&#8217;s mission is to enhance understanding of Islam, encourage dialogue, protect civil liberties, empower American Muslims, and build coalitions that promote justice and mutual understanding&#8221;.  </p>
<p></font><font color="333333">Sounds warm and fuzzy, huh???  </p>
<p></font><font color="333333">Well, did you know that &#8220;Core Principal&#8221; #7 states:  &#8220;CAIR believes the active pratice of Islam strenghtens the social and religious fabric of our nation&#8221;</p>
<p></font><font color="333333">Sooo&#8230;what &#8220;nation&#8221; are they speaking of? </p>
<p></font><font color="333333">Well, one CANNOT forget CAIRs involvement with terrorist organizations they continue to attempt to either &#8220;deny&#8221; or &#8220;distance themselves&#8221; from!!!  Some facts some of you may have forgotten:</p>
<blockquote><p><font color="333333">Los Angeles (10/28/98) &#8211; CAIR is calling on Los Angeles-based KCOP Television, Inc., channel 13, to remove billboards deemed offensive to Muslims. The billboards, reportedly seen in Los Angeles, Orange County, San Gabriel, and other cities, feature a picture of Usama Bin Laden with the headline &#8220;the sworn enemy.&#8221;  </p>
<p></font><font color="333333">CAIR consistently defends other militant Islamic terrorists too. The conviction of the perpetrators of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing it deemed &#8220;a travesty of justice.&#8221; The conviction of Omar Abdel Rahman, the blind sheikh who planned to blow up New York City landmarks, it called a &#8220;hate crime.&#8221; </p>
<p></font><font color="333333">On Feb. 2, 1995, U.S. Attorney Mary Jo White named Siraj Wahhaj as one of the &#8220;unindicted persons who may be alleged as co-conspirators&#8221; in the attempt to blow up New York City monuments. Yet CAIR deems him &#8220;one of the most respected Muslim leaders in America&#8221; and includes him on its advisory board.</p>
<p></font><font color="333333">&#8230;the FBI&#8217;s former chief of counterterrorism, Steven Pomerantz, concludes that &#8220;CAIR, its leaders and its activities effectively give aid to international terrorist groups.&#8221;</p>
<p></font><font color="333333">CAIR has defamed moderate Muslims who reject its extremist agenda, leading to death threats against them.</p>
<p></font><font color="333333">The head of CAIR&#8217;s Los Angeles office, Hussam Ayloush, routinely uses the term &#8220;zionazi&#8221; when referring to Israelis. CAIR co-hosted an event in May 1998 at which an Egyptian militant Islamic leader, Wagdi Ghunaym, called Jews the &#8220;descendants of the apes.&#8221;<br />
Read&#8221; <a href="http://www.danielpipes.org/article/394"><font color="990099">CAIR: Moderate friends of terror by D.Pipes 04/22/02</font></a><br />
</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="333333">And the scariest yet:  </p>
<blockquote><p><font color="FF0000">CAIR Chairman Omar M. Ahmad told a crowd of California Muslims in July 1998, <strong>&#8220;Islam isn&#8217;t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant. The Koran . . . should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on earth.&#8221;</strong></font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="333333">There will be those of you that say, &#8220;that was then&#8230;this is now&#8221;!  Don&#8217;t believe that for ONE second!!  A leopard (especially THAT indoctrinated into their beliefs) don&#8217;t change their spots&#8230;they just hide them for awhile to &#8220;fit it&#8221;!!!</p>
<p></font><font color="333333">In my area, a year ago, a local radio talk show advocated a &#8220;Muslim March&#8221; through the streets with <strong>Americans from ALL backgrounds and nationalities marching with the muslims to denounce terrorism and their support for America..</strong>&#8230;and in the 2-3 months he attempted to put this together only 5, I repeat FIVE muslims offered to support this and march!!  There were tons of others willing to march WITH THEM&#8230;but alas&#8230;what does THAT show also???  </p>
<p></font><font color="333333">Soooo, THOSE of you who want to do nothing but bitch and complain about Dennis Prager, me or others who are attempting to defend our national sovereignty, go right ahead&#8230;you may be kicking and screaming all the way to a mosque one day!!!!  </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><font color="330000">In an apparent overwhelming victory, Hugo Chavez is re-elected to another 6 year term as President of Venezuela.</p>
<p></font><font color="330000">This &#8220;hate America&#8221; leader, who sees &#8220;Fidel Castro as a father&#8221; had the majority of his support from the poor, which make up about 67% of the population in a country rich with oil.  Why?</p>
<blockquote><p>
<font color="330000">Chavez has won a <strong>loyal following among the poor through multibillion-dollar social programs</strong> including subsidized food, free university education and cash benefits for single mothers.<br />
<a href="http://www.townhall.com/News/NewsArticle.aspx?ContentGuid=fe2e23e9-037e-4ec2-9471-64d9d87aabba&amp;page=1"><font color="3300CC">Chavez Wins Re-Election by a Wide Margin</font></a></font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="330000">He is also big into &#8220;land grabbing&#8221; allowing peasant farmers to move onto purchased &#8220;private property&#8221; of cattle ranchers&#8230;</p>
<blockquote><p><font color="330000">these peasant farmers saying &#8220;<strong>they are not invaders or squatters but hardworking people and are &#8220;claiming what is owed to us&#8221;</strong>&#8220;.</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="330000">In his class warfare stance regarding this &#8220;land grab&#8221; Chavez states:  </p>
<blockquote><p><font color="330000">For too long, he said, the rich have had it all their own way &#8211; to the detriment of the majority of the people. </p>
<p></font><font color="330000">&#8220;We need to reshape our country, and land reform is an important part of the process.&#8221;<br />
<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4721961.stm"><font></font><font color="3300CC">Revolution on Venezuela&#8217;s estates </font></a></font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="330000">This socialistic, modern day &#8220;Robin Hood&#8221; who feels it is right to rob from the &#8220;rich&#8221; to give to the &#8220;poor&#8221; will do nothing to actually help his people rise from the poverty level, but I think he knows that!  He wants to keep them under government control with all his social programs&#8230;.stay poor and we will supply all your needs (education, health, food, homes, etc)!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="330000">But YIKES&#8230;.<strong>does type of &#8220;socialism&#8221; and &#8220;class warfare&#8221; sound familiar in any way, shape or form to some of our current &#8220;leftist politicians&#8221;??  Do the peasant farmers sound like the illegals in OUR country?</strong></p>
<p></font><font color="330000">Something to think about&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><font color="006600">Just when I thought I&#8217;d heard it all&#8230;&#8230;Sanfordville Elementry School in Warwick, NY, caves to whims of ONE against the majority and has apparently, in their lack of cajones, declared </font><font color="FF3333">SANTA a RELIGIOUS FIGURE!!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="006600">Yes, you&#8217;re reading right&#8230;we are not talking about the Nativity Scene, Mary, Joseph or the Baby Jesus, we&#8217;re not talking about the singing of Silent Night, Oh Come All Ye Faithful, or O Holy Night&#8230;.we are talking about elementary school kids having breakfast and a picture with </font><font color="FF3333">Santa Claus!!!!  </p>
<blockquote><p><font color="006600">(CNSNews.com) &#8211; A Christmas-themed event to raise money at a public elementary school in Warwick, N.Y., has been altered to accommodate a parent&#8217;s complaints that the program would illegally spotlight a &#8220;religious&#8221; figure &#8211; Santa Claus.</p>
<p></font><font color="FF3333">&#8220;Breakfast With Santa&#8221; </font><font color="006600">has since been changed to &#8220;Winter Wonderland Breakfast,&#8221; &#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p></font><font color="006600">That parent, who did not wish to have her name used, wrote a letter to the school board asserting that Santa represents Christmas &#8212; a Christian holiday&#8230;</p>
<p></font><font color="006600">These radical leftist types are arguing that just because 95 percent of Americans, according to recent polling, celebrate Christmas, they ought not to have that right&#8221; since a person with a different view might object.</p>
<p></font><font color="006600">Read the entire article at:<a href="http://www.discoverthenetwork.org/Articles/Santa%20Claus%20Deemed.html"><font color="0000CC">Discoverthenetworks.org</font></a></font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="006600">Please note that this Christmas fund raiser was being held on a SATURDAY, not on a school day or a school night, and therefore, attendance is optional&#8230;NOT mandatory!!  Therefore this &#8220;hum-bug down with Santa&#8221; parent could have kept their happy ass at HOME instead of attempting to interfere with the rights and enjoyment of others!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="006600">This is a display of total stupidity, first on the part of the ONE parent and second on the part of the school district who chose to &#8220;buckle&#8221; to the whims of an idiot!!  This political corruption, oops..I mean correctness, is totally out of control!!</p>
<p></font><font color="006600"><strong>When will the people say ENOUGH of this type of bullshit??  </strong></font></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><br /><p><font color="330033">Even before being &#8220;sworn&#8221; in as a Congressman, Keith Ellison, has already caused great controversy and divide in America. In fact, this is my THIRD article on this subject alone!!!</p>
<p></font><font color="330033">Why, because of his statements regarding the use of a Koran for his &#8220;swearing in&#8221; ceramony!!  His office calls the &#8220;outrage&#8221; by those of us that see this as a slap in the face as a &#8220;broo-haa-haa&#8221;&#8230;and goes into the &#8220;freedom of religion&#8221; stance!! </p>
<p></font><font color="330033">In my opinion, this is NOT a freedom of religion issue&#8230;this is an issue about AMERICAN values, traditions and culture and what AMERICA stands for!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="330033">Let him take his prayer rug, face Mecca 5 times a day and pray away&#8230;. but do NOT throw the &#8220;religion&#8221; of people who want to kill Americans, who are at war with our Country and have killed and wounded our troops in the battlefield, into our face while taking an &#8220;oath&#8221; to protect and serve our country!!!!!!!  </p>
<p></font><font color="330033">Although Ellison is going to use this as a &#8220;I&#8217;ll do what in the hell I want because I have the right&#8221; issue this goes way beyond Ellison&#8230;..it goes to the heart and soul of America!!!</p>
<p><a href="http://rhymeswithright.mu.nu/archives/206676.php"><font color="3300FF">Rymes with Right</font></a>, </font><font color="330033">who has a differing opinion regarding my stance on this particular issue, has made a good point of: </p>
<blockquote><p><font color="330033">Frankly, my preference would be that every public official take their oath of office upon an open copy of the US Constitution in the hope of inspiring fidelity to THAT document.</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font>I could go for that&#8230;&#8230;.</p>
<p><a href="http://faultlineusa.blogspot.com/2006/12/keith-ellison-islam-american.html#links">And <font color="3300FF">FautlineUSA</font></a> </font><font color="330033">has another excellent article I would suggest you reading on this subject and has another suggestion:  </p>
<blockquote><p><font color="330033">Perhaps it’s time for a constitutional amendment?</p>
<p></font><font color="330033">I submit for example: “No person shall hold any office or public Trust under the United States who adheres to or gives allegiance to any religion, ideology, or organization which by word, nature, association, or action has shown intent to undermine the sovereignty of these United States!”</font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="330033">Unfortunately, neither of these great suggestions will ever be considered in this politically correct society&#8230;..America, as we knew it, is slowly slipping and unless and until WE THE PEOPLE start shouting &#8220;no more&#8221; and continue to shout &#8220;no more&#8221;, not giving in or giving up, we will turn around one day and not even know where we are or what country we live in!!!</p>
<p></font><font color="330033">Theodore Roosevelt wrote in 1907: </p>
<blockquote><p>
<font color="330033">&#8220;In the first place we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the man&#8217;s becoming in very fact an American, and nothing but an American&#8230;There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn&#8217;t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag, and this excludes the red flag, which symbolizes all wars against liberty and civilization, just as much as it excludes any foreign flag of a nation to which we are hostile&#8230;We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language&#8230;and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.&#8221; </font></p></blockquote>
<p></font><font color="330033">We must also remember the saying:</p>
<p></font><font color="330033">&#8220;There are none so blind as he who will not see&#8221;</p>
<p></font></p>
