The Premature Coronation of Romney By Jared E. Peterson…see note please

MORE COMMENTATORS ARE SLAMMING THOSE USELESS DEBATES….WITH IDIOTIC QUESTIONS AND ONE MINUTE TO ANSWER AND THIRTY SECONDS TO RESPOND …..RSK
“Continue looking carefully, and positively, at Cain, Gingrich, and Perry. All three are very much alive, and each is a highly credible and qualified conservative candidate behind whom the overwhelmingly conservative Republican Party could enthusiastically unite and whom those same voters could carry to victory. ”

For the legacy media, Romney’s nomination becomes a greater certainty every day, if indeed it was ever in doubt to them, and their drumbeat and trumpet flourishes for the politically androgynous former Massachusetts governor grow ever louder and more difficult to ignore.

It’s probably time to take another serious look at what’s going on.

First, some outtakes from media’s fawning attempted anointment, all from persons who even now are sharpening the knives they will use on their current favorite Republicrat after his nomination is secure:

LUSH COSMETICS IS SO VEHEMENTLY ANTI-ISRAEL…

http://daphneanson.blogspot.com/ Protest Against Lush Cosmetics (video)
Lush might be a soap company, but as is probably well-known by now, it’s been engaging in something very grubby. I’ve made several posts on the subject, starting with the one here

It’s great to see these Californians taking a principled stand, in view of Lush’s demonisation of Israel. And as the uploader of the video points out on YouTube, there’s hypocrisy and double standards involved in Lush’s despicable campaign against Israel:

“They set up shop in countries where it is illegal for women to drive a car (Saudi Arabia) and where being gay faces a death penalty. It asks for you to support the PLO, who has asked for death to Israel and everyone it it, that includes Jews, Muslims, Christians.

But it seems to think that the only point to get on a high horse about is Israel, and ignore Syrian, Libyan, Iranian, Egytian slaughtering of people for protesting.”

DELINKING ISLAM AND TERROR

http://news.investors.com/Article/589489/201110261902/Delinking-Islam-And-Terror.htm

Homeland Security: The bleaching of Islam from the terror picture is almost complete. Eric Holder has ordered a purge of FBI training manuals. Soon the 9/11 hijackers’ religion will be censored, too.

Last week, top Justice Department officials huddled with several Islamic groups — including a Muslim Brotherhood front implicated in a terror-finance scheme — to discuss “post-9/11 discrimination.” They promised the aggrieved they’d pull back references to Islam from terror-training materials.

“I recently directed all components of the Department of Justice to re-evaluate their training efforts,” Deputy Attorney General James Cole announced during the Washington conference. U.S. Attorney Dwight Holton explained that FBI training materials that even remotely link Islam to violence will be banned…..READ THE REST AT THE SITE

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: GLOBAL WARMING…..REST IN PEACE

http://townhall.com/columnists/victordavishanson/2011/10/27/global_warming_–_rip/print Not long ago, candidate Obama promised to cool the planet and lower the rising seas. Indeed, he campaigned on passing “cap-and-trade” legislation, a radical, costly effort to reduce America’s traditional carbon energy use. The theory was that new taxes and greater regulations would make Americans pay more for fossil-fuel energy — a good thing […]

TAYLOR DINERMAN: THE LIMITS OF LIMITED WAR

http://www.hudson-ny.org/2539/limits-of-limited-war Since 1945, we have lived through a time when, thanks to the Cold War nuclear standoff and US military supremacy, there have not been any all-out wars. This relatively happy time, however, might be coming to an end. Carl Von Clausewitz, in his classic study, “On War,” pointed out that there are conflicts “where […]

SOEREN KERN: RUNAWAY ANTI-SEMITISM TRAMPLING ITALY

http://www.hudson-ny.org/2538/anti-semitism-italy A jarring 44% of Italians are prejudiced or hostile towards Jews, according to a new research study released by the Italian Parliament on October 17. The report, titled “Final Document: Investigation on Anti-Semitism,” was commissioned by the Committee for the Inquiry into Anti-Semitism of the Italian Chamber of Deputies, the lower house of the […]

ANDREW McCARTHY: QADDAFI’S DICTATORSHIP WAS PREFERABLE TO AN ISLAMIST LIBYA

http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/print/281414
Our Libyan Adventure Qaddafi’s dictatorship was preferable to an Islamist Libya.
‘Are you suggesting that we would be better off with the Qaddafi dictatorship still in effect?” asked Chris Wallace, browbeating presidential candidate Michele Bachmann.
And why shouldn’t he? After all, the Fox News anchor had just gotten Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Sen. Lindsey Graham to perform the requisite “Arab Spring” cartwheels over the demise of Libyan strongman Moammar Qaddafi. Apparently, when leading from behind ends up leading to a vicious murder at the hands of a wild-eyed mob, even folks who once got the sniffles over fastidiously non-lethal waterboarding can feel good about pulling out their party hats.
Imagine, then, the gall of Bachmann. The Minnesota Republican persisted in finding the cankers on the Arab Spring smiley face.
The most obviously ugly of these is that a throng of seething Islamists stripped, beat, paraded, and finally shot Qaddafi execution-style, all the while screaming the signature “Allahu Akbar!” battle cry with a fervor that would have made Mohamed Atta blush. They then shoved the despot’s corpse into a refrigerator — to maintain it for further triumphant display before thousands of gawking spectators. Too bad there was no official from the Obama administration’s Islamic Thought Police on hand to remind the mob of the Koran’s oft-quoted (but oftener ignored) teaching that to slay a single person is to slay all of mankind.

HMM…EVEN TOILET USE MUST BE SHARIA COMPLIANT: DIANA WEST

http://www.dianawest.net/Home/tabid/36/EntryId/1934/No-Spitting-Toward-Mecca-Part-2.aspx Yesterday’s post netted some valuable and vivid addenda. 1) From Andrew Bostom came the canonical hadith that suports Shafiq Mubarak’s teachings to US Marines not to — how to put it? — excrete in the direction of Mecca. This, Andy explains, is more formally known as “facing the Qiblah,” which means turning toward the Kabaa […]

PATRICK POOLE: HOMELAND SECURITY ADVISORY COUNCIL MEMBER MOHAMED ELIBIARY LEAKED INTEL TO ATTACK RICK PERRY

BREAKING: Homeland Security Adviser Allegedly Leaked Intel to Attack Rick Perry Posted By Patrick Poole

URL to article: http://pjmedia.com/blog/breaking-homeland-security-adviser-allegedly-leaked-intel-to-attack-rick-perry/

Texas Department of Public Safety officials are asking questions following a report that Department of Homeland Security Advisory Council member [1] Mohamed Elibiary may have been given access to a sensitive database of state and local intelligence reports, and then allegedly shopped some of those materials to a media outlet. He allegedly used the documents to claim the department was promoting “Islamophobia” — claims that the media outlet ultimately rejected. They declined to do the story.

Earlier today, I received confirmation from a left-leaning media outlet that Elibiary had recently approached them asking to do a story attacking Texas DPS:

Yes, he approached us and gave us some reports marked FOUO [For Official Use Only] that he said showed a pattern of Islamophobia at the department. He emphasized that some of the regional fusion centers were shut down a few years ago after the ACLU complained that they were targeting Muslim civil rights groups and said that this was being directed by [Texas Gov.] Rick Perry.

We looked at the reports and they weren’t as he had billed them to us. They seem to be pretty straightforward, nothing remotely resembling Islamophobia that we saw. I think he was hoping we would bite and not give it too much of a look in light of the other media outfits jumping on the Islamophobia bandwagon.

JAN POLLER: APPEASERS AND FIGHTERS

http://www.israpundit.com/archives/40745 There is a world-wide Islamic Jihad.  Even the Leftists know this.  After a visit by some Liberal relatives and talking to many Liberals on the Internet, some things become very clear. The Leftists/Liberals are fully aware of the threats of the Jihadis.  They know about the rockets on Israel, they know about the Honor […]
