A Fistful of Ameros, Starring Shmuley Eastwood
This movie could have been truly magnificent if it had been a fictional account of the death of the White race. But the Jews are too smart for that, so "Our Future" rests with a Black child (probably illegitimate). Notice that the youngest person on earth is Hispanic. Notice the White woman with dreadlocks. And notice the line, "It’s all over in 50 years." You don’t have to watch Jew propaganda to sense the urgency of that statement. Here in the real world, Whites face extinction, and other races are doing just fine.
Generations of White women have been convinced that motherhood is oppressive and ruins their figures, but they have to find 1.3 babies somewhere. Now Gypsy women are suffering in order to fill the quota for the Soccer Moms, and the Soccer Moms are buying colored children who will be raised to believe that they are equal to the White children who are the future of our race. Feminism is suicide, and it is hardly surprising that Jews have pushed it harder than anyone else.
Made-to-order babies with genetic defects. "Three percent, or four clinics surveyed, said they have provided the costly, complicated procedure to help families create children with a disability."
The famously homogeneous Japanese are captivated by hybrid pets, which is quite ironic. Now they are surprised to discover that their inbred dogs are "born with missing paws or faces lacking eyes and a nose. There have been dogs with brain disorders so severe that they spent all day running in circles, and others with bones so frail they dissolved in their bodies… The affection for fads in Japan reflects its group-oriented culture… As the number of childless women and couples in Japan has increased, so has the number of dogs, which are being coddled and doted upon in place of children, experts say."
Nationalism is on the rise in Japan. Some Japanese know that being slaves to the Americans and being plagued by "perennial questions of identity" have produced a younger generation that doesn’t love Japan - meaning not just the Japanese homeland but the Japanese people. Though the nationalists have "a shared vision: a return to pure virtues found in medieval Japan," they are also saying that "Western concepts like freedom and equality are inappropriate for Japan," which is not very surprising. As we all know, individual liberty is frowned upon in the Orient. They can be excused for not realizing that equality is not a "Western concept." Only on the Internet does the truth filter through the Jewish barricades. John Randolph of Roanoke said liberty and equality are inversely proportional, and you won’t hear that from Bill O’Reilly.
"Shylocks furious at being short-weighted on their pound of flesh."
Humorless censors, bores, and frauds. Oh no! I might get sued for saying that!
Some of the greatest murderers in history. (A Jew wrote this.)
This sounds like more Jewish blackmail.
Years ago, the Pope said the Jews were not responsible for killing Christ. Since that time, many thousands of Protestant ministers who fear being called anti-Semitic above all else have spread the lie that we are all responsible for killing Christ. Rushdoony responds.
The problem is White people.
More fodder is needed for Israel. Citizenship as payment for foreign military recruits. Rome did the same thing, and Rome fell.
"E Pluribus Unum refers to the origin of the federal government in separate and independent states, not to cultures and races, something conservatives used to understand." ~ Sam Francis
"The paradox of modernity…is that however successful the understanding of time and space, the modern is less at home in the actual time and space of daily living than peoples less touched by [modern] changes… Whatever the integration of space and time in science, in modern life there is at once cultural stagnation and febrile change, a restless movement from place to place, experience to experience, revealing little evidence of a serene dwelling in the body and on the good earth." ~ Colin Gunton, The One, the Three and the Many: God, Creation and the Culture of Modernity
"Whoever keeps the fig tree will eat its fruit."
Worldly Magazine is mighty impressed by words. Little Geneva’s budget is, like, $50 less than Worldly’s budget, but we give you the truth here, and the truth is that Gerald Ford was a faggot. He was also a baby-killer. In fact, the Republicans have not fielded a confessedly pro-abortion nominee since Ford. Such men do not stand in the presence of the Lord. They hide in the darkness where their evil deeds may be covered, and these days there is no better place to hide than in the apostate Episcopal Church where Ford was a member. The devil is roasting him on a spit right now.
"It is safe to tell the pure in heart that they shall see God, for only the pure in heart want to." ~ C.S. Lewis
"The forgiven man is the man who makes restitution. Forgiveness is in Scripture a juridical term. It has reference to a court of law. Since restitution is in Biblical law at all times basic to forgiveness, to re-establishment into citizenship, the word forgiveness always implies restitution in Scripture. When forgiveness is separated from law and made a matter of feeling, the end result is sentimentalism. Many modern theologians and Christians insist on an unconditional forgiveness for all men, irrespective of repentance and restitution. Such a position is simply a subsidy to and an acceptance of evil as evil. It is antinomianism." ~ R.J. Rushdoony
My barber cracks me up. Sometimes I giggle so ferociously that he has trouble cutting straight and I walk out of there looking like Gene Wilder. A few days ago he was waxing mathematical about how a few home-grown Blacks are nothing to worry about, "but when enough of them get together they turn into niggers." He says he’ll never go back to Orlando, which is half-Black. But his Navy Seal friend, who "ain’t quite right," was held up by three Black carjackers with a gun, and he walked up to them, pointed his finger, and said, "It would be wise for you to get back in your car and drive away!" They obeyed.
One who hopes that the new president of South Africa will kill White men and enslave White women. "But as part of sorting out ungrateful white people, I want Zuma to embark on a redistribution exercise. I want him to distribute white women among the long-suffering black chaps in South Africa. He must first choose which white woman he wants. He can even have two. That done, he must then distribute to his loyal supporters. And if there is a surplus, he should distribute to his supporters in tiny neighboring states. I am one of his supporters. I look forward to the reign of President Jacob Zuma."
Well-educated Whites are more likely to be segregationists.
Hear what Rushdoony calls "insanity in the name of Christ." Seconds later, he says the United Nations is determined to transfer populations and break down nationalities in the old Assyrian and Babylonian style. This entails bringing colored people from around the globe to live here among us, with the goal of destroying us.
Rush also pointed out in the same lecture that the end of the old order in Europe was World War I. (It came a bit sooner here in the States, under Lincoln.) He said one of the primary objectives of the Freemasons (meaning Jews and other Unitarians) was to destroy the Austro-Hungarian empire, because that was the last remaining feudal system on earth. Feudalism is a form of confederate government with a very limited monarch and fiefdoms overseen by lords. In the Holy Roman Empire, there was even an electoral college to determine the emperor. How republican of them! The theocratic feudalism that was the old order was overturned by Christ-haters to be replaced by the New World Order. Many true conservatives of the 21st century are doing what they can to revive agrarian folkways. This gives them a connection, however slight, to their medieval forebears. And this is nothing new. Even states’ rights were an attempt to salvage the liberty that once existed under feudalism. Totalitarianism was unknown to lords and vassals.
Rushdoony writes, "To the colonists, as to the barons who wrested Magna Carta from King John, English liberty meant feudalism in essence, localism as against centralism, contractual government as against absolutism… Each colony was a free English state under the king, and their relationship to him was feudal and contractual." Likewise for the American founding: "Limited government and constitutionalism were basic aspects of colonial faith and life, and common pulpit themes… The American political system, thus, is, first, a development of Christian feudalism." (Thanks to Jacob Aitken for these quotes. I also appreciate Jacob’s description of the Southern Confederacy as "an unrefined theocracy.")
Still, we know that guarding against the excesses of feudalism was of great concern to our founding fathers, especially John Adams. John Taylor of Caroline dismissed his concerns, saying that no feudal aristocracy could arise in America because land was too plentiful. Instead, Taylor feared an aristocracy of credit and paper-money, and wisely so, for usury and national banks have been weapons of mass destruction. Taylor knew that the exploitation that existed under feudalism was as nothing compared to exploitation through inflated paper, bank stocks, and protective tariffs. He was a prophet. We know today that faith in our leaders and a sense of national integrity depend not on virtue, honor, and godliness but on Sacred Credit and force of arms. "No form of government can foster a fanaticism for wealth without being corrupted," said Taylor.
As I said, the Austro-Hungarian empire was the last remaining feudal system on earth. By 1916, the Germans, Austrians, and Ottomans had seemingly won the war against England, France, and Russia. The tide turned when Chaim Weizmann, who would become the first president of the state of Israel, struck a deal with the English. If the Zionists could drag the United States into the war, their reward would be Palestine. The deal was sweetened by the knowledge that many Jews would leave Europe as a result. Jews Weizmann, Brandeis, and Baruch convinced Woodrow Wilson to enter the war, using the Lusitania as the excuse. The Germans were depicted as bloodthirsty "Huns." The Austro-Hungarian empire collapsed, and the Balfour Declaration, giving Palestine to the Jews, was issued in November of 1917. But actually, it had been written 20 months earlier. Benjamin Freedman, a prominent Zionist, said that Wilson was blackmailed with disclosure of an extramarital affair. The states of Iraq and Kuwait were created arbitrarily by the conquerors. Iraq always considered Kuwait its southern province, which is why Saddam Hussein invaded it. (Hussein was executed today.)
Recall that Karl Marx had railed against both feudalism and capitalism. Woodrow Wilson’s face was on the flip side of the New World Order’s coin. Wilson and Lenin were not that different after all. Since it was Lincoln who gave Wilson his power, it is not surprising that Wilson’s idea of "self-determination" did not extend to the Austro-Hungarian empire, just as Lincoln’s idea of "government of the people, by the people, for the people" did not extend to the South. And when that empire fell, Europe fell with it. This explains why we don’t get as worked up about Hitler as most folks these days. We know that there would have been no Hitler without American intervention in World War I, and there would have been no American intervention in World War I had it not been for Jewish interference (and more than likely, blackmail).
"The Habsburgs favoured, not an interminable bill of rights, but a clearly defined set of reciprocal duties; not the brotherhood of men, but the fatherhood of God. They knew that there has never been any such thing in human civilisation as a classless society, and that there never will be. Their religion taught them that social inequality was not something to be ashamed of, but something that God had rejoiced in ever since He preferred Abel to Cain."
It turns out that Habsburg weakness favored the Protestant Reformers, but it was their strength which erected a bulwark against Islam and created a Europe in which Christianity thrived. Could Protestants have accomplished this feat for half a millennium? As Chesterton said, "While all that we call the world was being made, they were the wall of the world."
Ravi Zacharius used to tell the story of Zita, the last Habsburg Empress. At her funeral in Vienna, her body was drawn by six black horses. The massive procession came to a stop at the Capuchin Church, where a man knocked on the closed door. A voice from within asked, “Who goes there?” Zita’s titles were read aloud: “Queen of Bohemia, Dalmatia, Croatia, Slavonia, Galicia. Queen of Jerusalem, Grand Duchess of Tuscany and Krakow.” “I do not know her,” said the voice behind the door. The man knocked again, and the voice replied, “Who goes there?” “Zita, Empress of Austria and Queen of Hungary.” Again, “I do not know her.” A third time the man knocked on the door, and this time when asked, “Who goes there?” the reply was simply, “Zita, a poor sinner.” “Come in,” said the voice, and the doors were opened.
John Smith, the great pioneer of Virginia, was for a time in the service of the Habsburgs in their struggle against the Turks. William Gilmore Simms gives this account of Smith’s single combat with the champion of the Turks: "So admirably true was the aim, so firm the nerves of the Christian champion, and so well-trained his steed, that the lance of Smith penetrated the beaver of the Turk, and passing through his eye into the brain, he fell dead to the ground at the first thrust, without so much as grazing the person of his conqueror. Smith leapt to the ground, unbraced the helmet of his enemy, and finding him lifeless, smote off his head, which he bore away in triumph to the Christian host." The Prince of Transylvania gave Smith a coat of arms which bore the heads of three Turks in a shield with the motto, Vincere est Vivere ("To conquer is to live"). Later, Smith struck such fear into the hearts of the Powhatan Indians of Jamestown that they denied he was mortal.
"For generations Southerners have shown an unswerving loyalty to their section, with the exception of a few today who are exhibiting the disintegrative effects of modern liberalism. They have shown this loyalty toward a region in which many outsiders can see little to be patriotic over. It is poor, comparatively, which is held to be the modern disgrace; it has preserved more than a little of the social structure of feudalism, which is supposed to be effrontery to the forces of history; it has handed down faith in a sacred literature, which is indeed anachronistic; and it has shown some reservations about the scientific interpretation of the world, which is regarded as a scandal. In a word, it has been a stumbling block to modernism." ~ Richard Weaver
Reading tips from Chris Ortiz. "Rushdoony is one of the most important Protestant thinkers since Dabney and Warfield. I would include Van Til in this lineage, but Rushdoony is just Van Til sharpened to a point… As the first president of Harvard once said, ‘you can get a world class education from a shelf of books five feet long.’"
An "awards ceremony for black kids who pass exams—while successful white classmates are ignored." Think of it as the Special Olympics.
A public school teacher who is way, way too honest. That kind of honesty can get you fired.
"Our Nation is a better place because of the contributions African Americans have made to our strength and character over the generations," said an obviously inebriated President Bush in his Kwanzaa message. Kwanzaa was concocted by the FBI. During the 1960s, the FBI encouraged the creation of groups such as Karenga’s United Slaves in order to divide and discredit the Left. They encouraged rivalry between United Slaves and the Black Panthers, laughing all the while at the ridiculous jigaboos. Now the President [sic] of the United [sic] States [sic] is praising lunatics for the vibrant atmosphere of the insane asylum.
"In earlier generations Whites laughed outright at such ‘Black history’ hijinks, or else mildly indulged the fantasies as one would the games of children. In fact, this attitude was so ingrained that Mark Twain sympathetically used the figure of ‘Nigger Jim’ in his Huckleberry Finn to elucidate some truths in the Black idiom of fantasy so well-known at the time. Naturally, this aspect of the humorist’s genius is lost on those who today seek to ban the classic - often in the same schools that take Kwanzaa seriously, and teach White children the glories of a supposedly Negroid Egypt. In the past, paternalistic Whites would often run such hustlers out of town for having ‘taken advantage of our niggers.’"
Speaking of which, Bush also praised this wife-beater for being "an American original." Can you imagine Thomas Jefferson doing any such thing?
More Negro mythology from Rushdoony. "Instead of talking about an equality of rights, why not talk about an equality of responsibility?"
Political correctness is often very comical, in a pathetic sort of way. For instance, read this, written in 1898, paying attention to the extreme content, and then notice the insertion of the words "a racist term for African Americans."
"We, the Indigenous people of this continent," harrumph, harrumph, blather, and snort. I’m surprised that it took them five whole sentences to get to the word "Hitler."

Cousin marriage undermines democracy? Sounds wonderful.
"Of course, non-Indians have no idea how important being Indian is to Indians. That’s a given. Other races couldn’t care less about their own race. Racial denigration is common, especially among liberal whites, who are out to destroy all racial distinction, as their Communist godfather Marx intended. But it won’t work with Indians." ~ David Yeagley
"Tracy Brown said his six children have been able to relate better to church because of gospel crunk, and it has given them a positive outlook… ‘I can get the message a whole lot better because it has an urban feel to it.’"
Congratulations are in order to Lie-gonier Ministries and the Bible Answer Man organization. Tim Dick, RC Sproul, and Hank Hanegraaff have made the list of the six most abusive ministries. I just had a thought. If everyone at Lie-gonier works extra hard at spreading the "gospel" in the coming year, the RC Sproul family salary could surpass the Paul Crouch family salary! Let this be a lesson to you that the Holy Spirit can make you rich.
"But now I am writing to you not to associate with anyone who bears the name of brother if he is guilty of sexual immorality or greed, or is an idolater, reviler, drunkard, or swindler - not even to eat with such a one." ~ 1 Cor 5:11
"What then is my reward? That in my preaching I may present the gospel free of charge, so as not to make full use of my right in the gospel." ~ 1 Cor 9:18

Matt Chancey has bet the farm that Jennifer Epstein is responsible for the Ministry Watchman site. His research into the MW masthead photo is quite amazing, and quite wrong. But I have a theory of my own to float, and here it is in a nutshell: "Matt Chancey" is actually Jennifer Epstein. I arrived at this conclusion when I saw that the Mrs. Binoculars site has pushed Jennifer Epstein’s blog into the Top 100 of 544,199 Wordpress blogs. It’s quite obvious that this is a case of shameless self-promotion. Since then, I have documented my exhaustive research in a 200-page, meticulously-footnoted thesis which will be published next month, complete with full-color graphics and pie charts. All the best people have written endorsements on the back cover, and this week the morning talk shows were notified. This is going to be big, folks!
Rick Warren tithes 90%. I remember hearing D. James Kennedy say that he tithes 125% of his salary. Some people are quite impressed by this, but the fact is that the remaining funds are substantial for these men. That was the whole point of Jesus making an example of the widow’s mite. Today’s megachurch pastor has much in common with the Pharisees, who never failed to make spectacles of themselves.
I wonder if Doug Phillips would advise Rick Warren to sue his many detractors, such as Ingrid Schlueter and Joseph Farah. I don’t know if Warren would be popular in the Fraternal Order of Litigious Christians, but he does have nice facial hair.
Very serious allegations from Ministry Watchman against the brother of Doug Phillips: "From all accounts, at a minimum hundreds of Christians died as a direct result of Brad Phillips’ theft and premature release of Sudan, the Hidden Holocaust… Interestingly enough though, Persecution Project no longer sells its stolen version of the video (sounds a lot like the disappearance of Raising The Allosaur, doesn’t it?)… Brad Phillips built his ‘ministry’ and gained a name for himself on the backs of honorable men that he ripped off… It appears as if film fraud is a Phillips family tradition. But Doug Phillips at least comes out looking not quite as bad as his little brother in that hundreds of Christians haven’t died because of his video fraud."
Christians are on the run in the Middle East because Judeochristians in America have ruined their lives.

Hot Fossils and Rebel Matters 86 - Voluntary Therapeutic Incarceration
Modern Royalty - Conrad and Barbara, Charles and Camilla.
The new Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change came out this week pointing the finger at the human contribution to global climate change. Why won’t Prince Charles accept environmental awards by videophone rather than wasting precious jet fuel to be on location. Isn’t voluntary therapeutic incarceration just a fancy name for mandatory sensitivity training? Sharon Stone’s error in judgment in thinking that the affectionate use of the word fag among her personal circle of friends is the same as Isaiah Washington outing T.R.Knight. Ugly Betty’s baby homos, gays, and transexuals. Ghost brides in China. Brothels in Australia and a rant on Conrad Black.

Right-wing media figures claim Clinton behind Obama/Muslim smears
On the January 19 editions of their radio programs, conservative talk show hosts Melanie Morgan, Lee Rodgers and Rush Limbaugh, as well as Fox News’ John Gibson on the same day’s edition of The Big Story, forwarded the accusation, originally published on the website InsightMag.com, that Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-NY) was responsible for spreading information about Sen. Barack Obama (D-IL) — specifically, that Obama “spent at least four years in a so-called Madrassa or Muslim seminary, in Indonesia.” The article, bearing the headline “Hillary’s team has questions about Obama’s Muslim background,” asserted that “researchers connected to Senator Clinton” disclosed the “details of Mr. Obama’s Muslim past.” Despite acknowledging near the end of his show that it “[d]oesn’t seem” that “Hillary’s fingerprints [are] on the story,” Gibson said earlier in that program that “[t]he New York senator has reportedly outed Obama’s madrassa past.”
None of the four radio or television hosts cited any evidence that Clinton was responsible for promoting the madrassa story, beyond the InsightMag.com article, which cited no one by name. On December 13, Jason Zengerle, editor of The Plank, the weblog of The New Republic, predicted that Republicans would “launch a savage and despicable whispering campaign against the guy (Barack Hussein Obama, etc.) and then blame it all on Hillary.” Zengerle responded to the InsightMag.com article on January 18:
The attribution on all this is broad enough (”political opponents within the Democratic Party”; “researchers connected to Senator Clinton”) that I suppose this information about Obama could have originated with people in Clinton’s orbit. But let’s not forget where this information appeared. And let’s be on the lookout for who goes on the cable shows and wonders whether “Barack Hussein Obama” is “The <strike>Manchurian</strike> Madrassa Candidate.” Something tells me it isn’t going to be Hillary, or any liberal for that matter.
InsightMag.com is the successor to Insight on the News, a biweekly magazine published until April 2004 by News World Communications, the company controlled by Rev. Sun Myung Moon that also operates The Washington Times and the wire service United Press International. The website describes itself as a “weekly Internet news magazine.”
The InsightMag.com article claimed that “sources close” to a “background check” supposedly “conducted by researchers connected to Senator Clinton” said that “[t]he idea is to show Obama as deceptive” and speculated that the “predominantly” Muslim school that Obama has admitted he once attended might have taught “a Wahhabi doctrine that denies the rights of non-Muslims”:
In two best-selling autobiographies — “The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream” and “Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance” — Mr. Obama, born in Honolulu where his parents met, mentions but does not expand on his Muslim background, alluding only to his attendance at a “predominantly Muslim school.”
[…]
The sources said the background check concerned Mr. Obama’s years in Jakarta. In Indonesia, the young Obama was enrolled in a Madrassa and was raised and educated as a Muslim. Although Indonesia is regarded as a moderate Muslim state, the U.S. intelligence community has determined that today most of these schools are financed by the Saudi Arabian government and they teach a Wahhabi doctrine that denies the rights of non-Muslims.
Although the background check has not confirmed that the specific Madrassa Mr. Obama attended was espousing Wahhabism, the sources said his Democratic opponents believe this to be the case — and are seeking to prove it. The sources said the opponents are searching for evidence that Mr. Obama is still a Muslim or has ties to Islam.
On The Big Story, Gibson read a statement from Obama’s office, which said: “The idea that Senator Barack Obama attended some radical Islamic school is completely ludicrous. Senator Obama is a committed Christian and attends the United Church of Christ in Chicago.”
Morgan read from the article, then asserted that Clinton “is going to try to derail the train before it gets out of the station,” adding: “And we know that Hillary Clinton has used private eyes to spy on the private lives of many of her political opponents as well as the girlfriends of her husband over the years.”
On his program, Limbaugh read the story and claimed: “This is Hillary’s team doing this. This is not a bunch of Republicans saying this. They wouldn’t dare; they don’t have the guts.”
Gibson addressed the InsightMag.com article as his “Big Story” at the beginning of the show and again in his “My Word” segment at the end of the program. After claiming that Clinton “has reportedly outed Obama’s madrassa past,” Gibson told Republican strategist Terry Holt: “Now, we have heard about dirty politics before. Republicans aren’t involved in this one.” Holt responded: “This was either a despicable act by an absolutely ruthless Clinton political machine — we know that they are capable of doing this. But I also thought, you know, it wasn’t directly linked to Hillary Clinton.” Holt then speculated that Obama himself could have been behind the story, saying that “if you took a page out of the Clinton book and you are really shrewd and you were Barack Obama, you might want to put this out yourself so that you could deal with it early in the political campaign and get it over with.” But Holt also noted that “a madrassa, before it was politicized and really taken over by the fundamentalists primarily from Saudi Arabia, it was nothing more than a parochial school, and Barack Obama was in school 40 years ago.”
Still, in his “My Word” segment, Gibson said: “Americans have a visceral reaction to the word ‘madrassa.’ In our world, a madrassa’s where zealots train your Muslim kids to hate America, to hate the West, and to be killers. Saying Obama attended a madrassa is tying Obama’s name to terrorism, and that is real political hardball in action, especially when Obama himself said in his own book that he attended a predominantly Muslim school as a youngster in Indonesia.”
On the Morning Show, in addition to accusing Clinton of the attack on Obama, Rodgers suggested that Obama may be a “death target” because of the revelation that he was born the son of a Muslim. From the program:
RODGERS: According to Muslim law, Islamic law, the penalty for leaving the faith is death. Today, Barack Obama proclaims his adherence to the Christian faith, he’s a member of a church in Chicago — they say he’s not a regular churchgoer, but he’s a member — but will this make him a potential death target? Renouncing Islam and taking another faith is subject to the death penalty under Islamic law. Free choice has nothing to do with it. It doesn’t work that way. To them, you are what you are, and if you were born the child of a Muslim father, you are a Muslim for life, whether you like it or not. And the penalty for trying to break away is death.
And that is why you hear about these cases from time to time Muslims who convert to other religions usually change — move, change their name, hide their identity, because they know what Islam dictates as the price for abandoning Islam. The goo-goo mush-heads among us in this country don’t like to believe this is the case, but it happens to be absolutely true. Now we know of cases like writer Salman Rushdie about whom a fatwa was issued calling for any Muslim to kill him, OK? He’s fairly prominent in the literary world, and in the larger world not that big a deal, but if he were the most famous, popular author in the world, that’s still a hell of a far cry from running for president of the United States. So, you know, make of this whatever you wish, but that is what Islam dictates.
Similar to the attacks from Morgan, Rodgers and Limbaugh, the weblog Think Progress noted that on the January 19 edition of Fox News’ Fox & Friends First, hosts Steve Doocy, Brian Kilmeade, and Gretchen Carlson focused an entire segment on the revelation that Obama spent four years in a Muslim school.
This most recent focus by right-wing media figures on Obama’s background recalls a December 18 column headlined “Barack Hussein Obama: Once a Muslim, Always A Muslim” by right-wing pundit Debbie Schlussel, who argued that because Obama’s middle name is Hussein, his late, estranged father was of Muslim descent, and he has shown interest in his father’s Kenyan heritage, Obama’s “loyalties” must be called into question as he emerges as a possible Democratic presidential candidate, as Media Matters for America noted.
The accusation that the madrassa story came from Clinton also recalls a suggestion by Sean Hannity and Robert Novak that Clinton was behind a “leak[]” to the press about Obama’s admitted past drug use. As Media Matters noted, Obama himself disclosed in his 1995 memoir that he had used drugs.
Earlier on the KSFO program, after saying that Clinton had started her “character assassination of ‘Osama Obama,’” Morgan said: “And those of you who are taping us at Media Matters, ‘Osama Obama’ is a reference to what Senator Ted Kennedy (D-MA) called Barack Obama.” Rodgers, then said: “Ted Kennedy. Got that, freaks with keyboards? Got that?” “Osama Obama” is a reference to Kennedy’s mangling of Obama’s name at press conference in January 2005. On a January 12 special “no-holds-barred” discussion on KSFO, Morgan accused Media Matters of “thuggish tactics,” and Rodgers told Media Matters President and CEO David Brock: “Dave, baby, stick it!”
From the January 19 edition of KSFO’s Morning Show:
MORGAN: Well, it is big time finally watching what’s going on as Hillary begins the character assassination of “Osama Obama.”
RODGERS: “Osama Obama” — all right, hold it up on that — this is going to take some time to explain. There are several angles at work here. But of course, she’s not going to sign her name to any of the attacks on him — at least not yet.
MORGAN: Well –
RODGERS: But the wheels are in motion.
MORGAN: And for those of you who are taping us at Media Matters, “Osama Obama” is a reference to what Senator Ted Kennedy called Barack Obama.
RODGERS: Exactly.
MORGAN: It’s humor. Humor, folks.
RODGERS: Teddy Kennedy. Teddy Kennedy. Got that, freaks with keyboards? You got that?
[…]
RODGERS: So far in this young, at least open presidential campaign, Senator Barack Obama really hasn’t had a glove laid on him. He’s a nice-looking guy, smooth, PR, says all of the right things — they’re mostly meaningless platitudes — but so far he has been pretty much unscathed, which of course will not sustain in the rough-and-tumble presidential campaign politics when it really gets going. There are two matters that he’s going to have to address and deal with. First, Insight magazine today — and you can find the entire article on Lucianne.com, you may have to go through two or three pages to find it — but it’s from Insight magazine, and they pose this question: Are the American people ready for an elected president who was educated in a madrassa — that’s one of those Islamic schools funded by the Wahhabi sect of Saudi Arabia, the biggest supporters of terrorism in that part of the world. He was educated in one of those as a young boy and has not been forthcoming about his Muslim heritage. This is the question Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton’s camp is asking about Senator Obama. An investigation of Mr. Obama by political opponents within the Democratic Party — gee, I wonder if that could mean Hillary –
MORGAN: Hmmm, no.
RODGERS: — has discovered that Obama was raised as a Muslim by his stepfather in Indonesia. Now, to back up for a second, his father was, as everybody knows by now, a black man, a Muslim from Africa. His mother was an American woman atheist, and after they parted ways, she married a guy from Indonesia — she’s running her own U.N. or something — anyway, and so they went to Indonesia. Sources close to the background check — which has not yet been released — said Mr. Obama spent at least four years in a so-called madrassa, a Muslim seminary in Indonesia. The source says he was a Muslim but he concealed it. His opponents within the party hope this will become a major issue in the campaign. When contacted by Insight magazine, Mr. Obama’s press secretary says he would consult with his boss and call back. He did not.
MORGAN: Surprise, surprise.
RODGERS: Soruces said the — yeah — the background check conducted by researchers connected to Senator Clinton — hmmm –
MORGAN: Hmmm.
RODGERS: — disclosed details of Mr. Obama’s Muslim past and said the Clinton camp concluded that the Illinois Democrat has concealed his prior Muslim faith and education. That’s part one of the story, and it gets more complex. You decide for yourself what interpretation you want to put on this. But Thomas Lifson at the American Thinker, valuable website, easy to find on the web — the American Thinker — raises a question about Senator Obama that needs to be answered if he is going to run seriously for president, and it’s this: He was born, as I said, to a Muslim father, which is — that’s the reason for his first and middle names — Barack and Hussein, which is his middle name, are Islamic names. According to Islamic scripture, this is what Islam teaches its adherents: One who is born to a Muslim father is a Muslim. Forever. It’s like being Jewish descends from the mother, but you can always convert out. Islam? Uh-uh.
MORGAN: Yep.
RODGERS: According to Muslim law, Islamic law, the penalty for leaving the faith is death. Today, Barack Obama proclaims his adherence to the Christian faith, he’s a member of a church in Chicago — they say he’s not a regular churchgoer, but he’s a member — but will this make him a potential death target? Renouncing Islam and taking another faith is subject to the death penalty under Islamic law. Free choice has nothing to do with it. It doesn’t work that way. To them, you are what you are, and if you were born the child of a Muslim father, you are a Muslim for life, whether you like it or not. And the penalty for trying to break away is death. And that is why you hear about these cases from time to time Muslims who convert to other religions usually change — move, change their name, hide their identity, because they know what Islam dictates as the price for abandoning Islam. The goo-goo mush-heads among us in this country don’t like to believe this is the case, but it happens to be absolutely true. Now we know of cases like writer Salman Rushdie about whom a fatwa was issued calling for any Muslim to kill him, OK? He’s fairly prominent in the literary world, and in the larger world not that big a deal, but if he were the most famous, popular author in the world, that’s still a hell of a far cry from running for president of the United States. So, you know, make of this whatever you wish, but that is what Islam dictates. And apparently, Senator Obama has not been enthusiastic about talking about his Muslim heritage and the fact that he went to a madrassa in Indonesia for four years. So the gloves may come off sooner than we anticipated.
MORGAN: I find it interesting that it’s coming from Hillary Clinton’s camp. This isn’t opposition research done by Republicans, folks.
RODGERS: No, no.
MORGAN: This is opposition research, and we know that Hillary Clinton has used private eyes to spy on the private lives of many of her political opponents, as well as the girlfriends of her husband over the years.
RODGERS [imitating Bill Clinton]: Hillary sends her private eyes out to check on my babes.
MORGAN: That’s right. A couple of those private eyes live right here in the San Francisco Bay area, and by the way, they’re still a little bit ticked off that they didn’t get paid in a timely fashion from Hillary Clinton, and they consider –
RODGERS: What? the Clintons failed to pay a bill? That’s hard to believe.
MORGAN: Yes, I know. But this is going to get more and more interesting because she –
RODGERS: Yeah.
MORGAN: — she is not going to allow the momentum to continue to build around Senator Obama. She is going to try and derail the train before it gets out of the station.
RODGERS: Absent this Muslim factor, as I said yesterday, I think she’s like — would like having him in the race because he deflects a lot of other competition from other candidates who, frankly, might be might be more likely to give her some real heat, and she didn’t want to say that he wasn’t qualified to be president of the United States because one of these days, she might want him as a running mate. But when this becomes public, I don’t think she’s going to want him as her running mate.
MORGAN: It looks like Hillary Clinton is playing the religious card here. And for all of those people who have criticized us on this radio station for pointing out certain truths about Senator Obama — that he is from a Muslim father and a white mother and has been raised in relative affluence by his white maternal grandparents — you might want to stop and rethink your criticism. We are only pointing out the obvious. It looks like Senator Hillary Clinton is playing a race card, a religious card here that is looking a little unattractive, frankly.
RODGERS: Well, it may be unattractive, but a lot of people are going to say, “Wait a minute, he went to one of those schools run by fanatical Muslims for four years? All right, so he was very young, but I’m not so sure this is the kind of gamble I want to take with my vote.”
MORGAN: Well –
RODGERS: But you know, people will decide for themselves.
MORGAN: I’m just pointing out that, you know, that the Internet bloggers might want to turn some of their firepower on their own party, where it rightfully belongs.
RODGERS: Yeah. Check it out. Check out both of them.
MORGAN: Yeah.
RODGERS: Obama’s history and Hillary’s role in the revelations and the whole thing. Have fun, gang.
MORGAN: Yeah.
RODGERS: Have fun.
MORGAN: Just start typing away on your little keyboards there, boys and girls.
From the January 19 broadcast of Premiere Radio Networks’ The Rush Limbaugh Show:
LIMBAUGH: According to Insight magazine, Hillary’s team is interested in his Muslim background, and is he really a Muslim and hiding it from everybody. This is Hillary’s team doing this. This is not a bunch of Republicans saying this. They wouldn’t dare; they don’t have the guts. [laughs] And then we’ve gotten stories about how mainstream traditional civil rights leaders, such as the Reverend [Jesse] Jackson and the Reverend [Al] Sharpton do not find anything particularly great about Barack Obama because he’s really not one of them — born in Hawaii, educated in Africa in part. So, all these little rifts now are starting to show up. And Hillary was on Matt Lauer Today show, and we’ve got — want to play this bite again, with the Clinton war room zeroing in on Obama, and we’ve added — we could’ve played this Wednesday — we’ve added my conclusion that I added on Wednesday at the end of this bite.
[start audio clip]
LIMBAUGH: Then Lauer said, look, Senator Obama has announced he’s opening an exploratory committee — is he qualified? He’s been in the Senate two years, is he completely qualified to be commander in chief in your opinion?
[Today audio clip]
CLINTON: The voters will make these decisions, that’s what’s so great about our system –
LAUER: but do you think he’s qualified? I mean, he’s a fellow Democrat. Would you be comfortable with him in the White House?
CLINTON: I’m going to let all of those decisions be sorted out by voters.
[end Today audio clip]
LIMBAUGH: Meaning, wait ’til we get through destroying this guy ourselves and make it look like the Republicans did it. I’m not worried about Obama, she is saying.
[end audio clip]
LIMBAUGH: No, she’s not. She’s probably not worried about him at all, and — but it’s, of course, being presented that she is.
From the January 19 edition of Fox News’ The Big Story with John Gibson:
GIBSON: Hi, everybody. Tonight’s big story: the gloves are off. Hillary Clinton reported to be already digging up the dirt on Barack Obama. The New York senator has reportedly outed Obama’s madrassa past. That’s right — Clinton team reported to have pulled out all the stops to reveal something Obama would rather you didn’t know — that he was educated in a Muslim madrassa.
I was criticized on this show for outing Obama as a smoker, but look at what some anti-Obama Democrats are doing to her political rival now. They’re playing the Muslim phobia card. Is this just the beginning? Is the Obama honeymoon officially over? What other dirty little secrets will come out as they battle it out in the race for the White House? With me now, Republican strategist Terry Holt. Terry.
HOLT: Hey, Bill [sic].
GIBSON: This is a — this is appearing on a website today, the Insight magazine, which — which is a subsidiary of The Washington Times. Here’s the — here’s the question. I’m going to put it up on the screen: Barack’s madrassa past. They said during the five years — he says that “during the five years that we would live with my stepfather in Indonesia, I was sent first to a neighborhood Catholic school and then to a predominantly Muslim school.” That’s from his book, The Audacity of Hope. Now, meantime, this is what Democrats are saying, according to Insight magazine. They’re looking into his background, they’re saying, “He was a Muslim, he concealed it. His opponents within the Democrats hope this will become a major issue in the campaign.”
Now, we’ve heard about dirty politics before. Republicans aren’t involved in this one. What do you think about what’s going on over there?
HOLT: John, the last time I checked, there was still a freedom of religion in this country. This is either a despicable act by an absolutely ruthless Clinton political machine — we know that they are capable of doing this. But I also thought, you know, it wasn’t directly linked to Hillary Clinton. If it wasn’t her, then certainly she should disavow it because I think we’ve spent an awful lot of time in this country trying to tamp down, you know, anti-religious sentiments. But you know, it’s also if you took a page out of the Clinton book and you are really shrewd and you were Barack Obama, you might want to put this out yourself so that you could deal with it early in the political campaign and get it over with. I don’t know.
GIBSON: Let me look — let me show you what the press secretary to U.S. Senator Barack Obama said today in a statement about this story. They said, “The idea that Senator Barack Obama attended some radical Islamic school is completely ludicrous. Senator Obama is a committed Christian and attends the United Church of Christ in Chicago.” Nonetheless, Terry, what damage does it do to Obama to have the word “madrassa” attached to his name?
HOLT: Well, I think that Barack Obama is such a white-hot political property right now that I’m not sure that it does any long-term damage. He may have to explain this, but, you know, Obama’s story is unique to the political field at this point, having been educated overseas. I’d also point out that a madrassa, before it was politicized and really taken over by the fundamentalists primarily from Saudi Arabia, it was nothing more than a parochial school, and Barack Obama was in school 40 years ago. So, I’m not sure that this is a campaign killer, but it does, I think, maybe put on him the burden of explanation, a little bit more about his bio.
GIBSON: Terry, this is a hotly contended — contested race. Senator Clinton thought she had it in the bag and that she was the nominee already. He’s made a surprise run at her. Does this give his team a warning of what sort of things are coming before he could possibly capture the nomination?
HOLT: Absolutely. You know, the Clinton team and the machine, make no mistake, it’s still in place. They used to call themselves “the masters of disaster.” And if Barack Obama gets into the race against Clinton, I think that he can count on no small amount of disaster being forced upon him by running against one of the most effective and one of the most negative political machines ever assembled in this country. But you know what? If you’re going to run for president, you have to be prepared for everything and anything to be thrown at you, and in many ways, voters are looking not so much for the facts about what you’ve done in your past but, really, how do you handle it? Do you handle it with poise? Do you handle it with honesty and dignity? If he handles this well, I’m not sure that this puts him in a corner he can’t escape from.
GIBSON: Terry Holt on the madrassa bomb dropped on Barack Obama. Terry, thanks very much.
HOLT: Thanks, John.
[…]
GIBSON: Now “My Word.” Let me do a contrast and compare. Two days ago, we did a story about Barack Obama’s dirty little secret — he smokes cigarettes. I got a lot of angry email from the “how dare you” variety. After all, angry emailers said, this is old news. Everybody knows he smokes, and what difference does it make, anyway?
Well, not everybody knows, number one. And number two, many people do care if a person is a smoker. Some people view smoking as a character weakness. I used to be a smoker, and I know what people think about smokers. But smoking cigarettes is a nothingburger compared to what Hillary’s people are reported to be doing to Obama.
Reported in Insight magazine today, that’s a publication of The Washington Times. Insight says its sources report that the Clinton Democrats are doing background checks on Obama and are going to attach the word “madrassa” to him, as in quote “Obama attended a madrassa as a child.” That, my friends, is way worse than saying he smokes Marlboros.
Americans have a visceral reaction to the word “madrassa.” In our world, a madrassa’s where zealots train your Muslim kids to hate America, to hate the West, and to be killers. Saying Obama attended a madrassa is tying Obama’s name to terrorism, and that is real political hardball in action, especially when Obama himself said in his own book that he attended a predominantly Muslim school as a youngster in Indonesia.
The people who want to slime him are going to say “translation, madrassa.” Are Hillary’s fingerprints on the story? Doesn’t seem so. They can deny these stories with a straight face. When the story popped up on Fox this morning, Obama’s people were furious. We got a statement from them this afternoon. You saw it earlier.
It’s a — it’s bare-knuckle politics, and they know they’ve been had. My point is simply this: The senator from Illinois is going to get a baptism by fire if he thinks he’s going to challenge Hillary Clinton for the nomination. And if he thinks he’s going to get a free ride, he only has to look at today’s issue of Insight magazine. My little jab about him being a closet smoker is nothing more than an elbow in the paint compared to that. Picture the commercial: “Hi, I’m Barack Obama. Funny thing happened to me on my way to the White House. Somebody discovered I didn’t go to a kindergarten, I went to a madrassa.” This is how the big kids play politics. That’s “My Word.” Write to me at myword@foxnews.com. See you back here Monday.

Generals Lee and Taylor standing on the heights above Fredericksburg, Virginia, from the movie Gods and Generals:
Lee: "Did you know George Washington spent his boyhood not far from here? And across that river, he’s supposed to have thrown that silver dollar…"
Taylor: "…and cut down that cherry tree."
Lee: "That may be so, Mr. Taylor, but it has an even greater significance for me. It’s where I met my wife. That’s something these Yankees do not understand, will never understand. You see, these rivers and valleys and streams, and fields, even towns, they’re just markings on a map to those people in the war office in Washington. But to us, my goodness, they’re birthplaces and burial grounds. They’re battlefields where our ancestors fought. Places where you and I learned to walk, to talk, and to pray. Places where we made friendships and, oh yes, fell in love. They’re the incarnation of all our memories, Mr. Taylor, and all that we are. All that we are."

In 1723 Maryland, "if any person shall hereafter within this province…deny our Savior Jesus Christ to be the Son of God, or shall deny the Holy Trinity, he shall, for the first offense, be fined and have his tongue bored; for the second, fined and have his head burned; for the third, put to death." Instant solution to the Jewish problem, just as neat and tidy as you please. This law remained in force until the adoption of the state constitution. I pray often that such laws are revived someday. Ask your pastor if he prays likewise. While you’re at it, ask him if he thinks David Irving should have been released from prison. If he says no to either question, I’m not sure why you think you belong to a Christian church.

This quote from Thomas Jefferson seems to work equally well for Soviets or Jews (or am I being redundant?): "They are then, in fact, the corps of sappers and miners, steadily working to undermine the independent rights of the States, and to consolidate all power in the hands of that government in which they have so important a freehold estate. But it is not by the consolidation, or concentration of powers, but by their distribution, that good government is effected… Were we directed from Washington when to sow, and when to reap, we should soon want bread."
"We are not unified. We never have been, and we never will be… What is truly miraculous is when a people, despite their cultural, racial, and religious differences, can treat one another lawfully. They don’t steal, defraud, kill, or mistreat one another. They respect their borders and do not impose their ideals upon another. However, this doesn’t mean we have to be ‘unified’ as some massive nation." ~ Chris Ortiz

A Jewess by the name of Paula Rothenberg is asked by Paula Zahn if she, "as a white person," is intimidated by the fear of offending Negroes. In the midst of raving imbecility, including the statement that "no black person would lynch, rape, castrate, or murder," Jared Taylor makes some good points, as always: "In effect, black people have told white people: Here is a word you may not use. We can use it, if we like, but you better not use it. And how have whites responded? They have said: Yes, sir, we will not use this word. And, now, whites are the ones who are very careful about what they say. They can’t risk offending blacks. They can’t use a two-syllable word, for fear of losing their jobs. What does this tell us, despite the fact that blacks can use words like ‘cracker’ and ‘honky’? I won’t be thrown off the set if I use those words. They can use those words like that with impunity? What does that say, really, about the racial power relationship in the United States?… I think the notion that whites somehow benefit from white skin privilege because of the presence of non-whites is crazy. That suggests, if non-whites suddenly disappeared, whites would be shooting themselves because they couldn’t enjoy this privilege anymore."
I for one am outraged that a seminary professor and World Magazine journalist has used The Nigger Word. The utterance of that word is demeaning to every African-American in this country, and it treats their struggle for freedom and equality under the law as profane. That’s why I never let it escape my lips unless I know a good nigger joke.
Rap music about raping women is fine but shouting "Turn off the nigger music!" is strictly prohibited.
Rape charges have been dropped in the Duke case, just as we suspected. It was not because we believed that a few White college drunkards could not possibly have been guilty, but merely because it was improbable. That didn’t stop Negroes from salivating over what Tom Wolfe calls Great White Defendants. Anthony Bradley even went on Fox News and wrote this article. "What is desperately needed is a hero to emerge from Duke’s lacrosse team, one who is committed to justice and human dignity, to make what may be the toughest decision of his life—that is, to tell the truth." Turns out they were telling the truth about the rape, but I wouldn’t hold your breath waiting for Negroes to apologize for their slander.
"Ours is one continued struggle against degradation sought to be inflicted upon us by the European, who desires to degrade us to the level of the raw Kaffir [Negro], whose occupation is hunting and whose sole ambition is to collect a certain number of cattle to buy a wife with, and then pass his life in indolence and nakedness." ~ Mahatma Ghandi

"As a pretended celebration of Betty Crocker’s 75th anniversary, General Mills is going to select 75 real women who are residents of the United States, photograph them, and then digitally ‘morph’ them into one composite face, which will become the new Betty Crocker. As anyone with even a cursory knowledge of computer software knows, this ‘morphing’ process can yield almost any result desired by the computer operator and will not necessarily result in a statistical average of the input images. And what will the computer operator be looking for? According to the Wall Street Journal, ‘Since the contest is open to would-be Bettys of all races…the hybrid homemaker is likely to emerge with more politically correct features.’"
