MY SAY: MINORITY OPINION

I have been checking out American campuses recently. I am curious about who teaches their Political Science departments and their Middle East Studies…and it is very discouraging that universities and colleges will graduate biased and historically ignorant alums into academia, the mainstream media and the professions.
What really gets my goat are the “diversity and minority” programs and departments.
Did you know that Jews are not a minority? There are no “outreach” programs for Jews. Women, gays, trans genders, and a slew of hyphenated Americans are all coddled and encouraged and invited to the diversity classes and programs. Not Jews…. Makes you wonder what the word minority means.
There are in the whole entire world only 13.75 million Jews. That is only .02% of the entire global population.
In America in 2011 there were roughly 38,000,000 Black Americans and 51,000,000 Hispanic Americans and they are considered minorities.
How did we get written off ? rsk

BYE-BYE MORSI ON THE GLAZOV GANG

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/frontpagemag-com/bye-bye-morsi-on-the-glazov-gang/

This week’s Glazov Gang had the honor of being joined by Tiffany Gabbay, National Development Director for the David Horowitz Freedom Center, Dwight Schultz, a Hollywood actor, and Jennifer Serrano, the Newest California PolitiChick.

The Gang members gathered to discuss When The Brotherhood Fell, analyzing why Egyptians threw Morsi out — and why Obama is upset about it.

The episode also shed light on Zimmerman on Trial, The ObamaCare Setback, and much, much more.

To watch both parts of this two part series, see below:

Why Congress Should Scrap Big, Fat, Pork-Laden Bills LIZ PEEK

http://www.thefiscaltimes.com/Columns/2013/07/10/Why-Congress-Should-Scrap-Big-Fat-Pork-Laden-Bills.aspx#page1

Here’s a shocking thought: maybe Congress isn’t so dysfunctional after all. Maybe it is actually executing the will of the people – people fed up with pay-offs and handouts, pork and piggishness — Congress’ “business as usual” cronyism. Obamacare put them over the edge.

Americans have resolutely opposed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act – aka Obamacare – since its inception, but Congress passed it anyway. Not only was the public rightly wary of the government’s upending of one sixth of our economy – a dangerous act of hubris in the midst of a terrible recession – they were also appalled at how the monstrous bill passed.

They were disgusted by the $100 million Cornhusker Kickback that won Senator Ben Nelson’s vote, the $300 million Louisiana Purchase that swayed Mary Landrieu, the malfeasance of legislators who blindly voted for the unread 1,000-page bill. They knew Obamacare was a stinker from the get-go, and they punished those who rammed it down their throats in 2010, electing a GOP House by a vast margin.

It is not surprising that the House, so elected, might hold fast the lessons of 2010. Among other things, they are allergic to big, fat indigestible bills. When 179 Republicans voted against the $70 billion Sandy Relief bill, the usual suspects were outraged, blasting Tea Party intransigence. But Senator Kelly Ayotte argued persuasively in an op-ed why she voted “no,” describing the bill’s hidden pork – the millions and billions snuck in to fix a leaky roof at the Smithsonian, for new cars for the FBI, and for highway repairs across the country. She had earlier supported a $24 billion package that actually targeted Sandy victims, but that bill was defeated. As she pointed out, the Sandy package ultimately ended up costing more than the annual Homeland Security budget. Imagine that.

DAPHNE ANSON:Manning The Anti-Israel Barricades In Sydney

http://daphneanson.blogspot.com/ “The bounds of reasonableness … rarely trouble the BDS movement, where actions range between the crass and the repugnant. When BDS supporters punish Israel by picketing Australian chocolate shops owned by a Jewish businessman, their absurdity invites us to laugh. Yet when they call for the severing of ties between Australian and Israeli academics […]

OBAMACARE: A DELAYED DISASTER

http://www.unionleader.com/article/20130710/OPINION01/130719992/1004/opinion Obamacare is a 906-page law that has generated — so far — at least 10,000 pages of federal regulations to direct the activity in one-seventh of the U.S. economy. And some people are surprised that it is too complex to be implemented on schedule? Last Friday the Obama administration released final regulations for a […]

GERALD WALPIN:The NSA Program in Real-World Perspective

http://spectator.org/people/gerald-walpin/all.xml Reality, logic, and history need be applied to hysteria of some concerning NSA’s possession of all phone numbers called by phones of Americans and even, some say, the addresses from and to all emails. Consider the same law enforcement tactic used successfully to catch domestic criminals. Just recently, a dozen of similar-type robberies by […]

RYAN MAURO: IT IS TIME TO CALLNIGERIA’S SLAUGHTERERS OF CHILDREN TERRORISTS….

http://frontpagemag.com/2013/ryan-mauro/time-to-label-nigerian-schoolchildren-slaughterers-terrorists/ The Clarion Project has started a petition to designate the Nigerian terrorist group Boko Haram as—well, a terrorist group. The Obama Administration’s desire to end the war on terror and not pick any new fights is overriding common-sense and moral clarity. The United Kingdom has just branded Boko Haram as a terrorist group, so […]
