Democrats must REALLY fear Trump.
It appears that the man who ask Trump the
now famous “Muslim question” was a plant by the Democratic Party.
A man who looks exactly him was previously the star of a liberal anti-Tea Party campaign, Breitbart News has learned. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/09/21/exclusive-liberal-group-publicized-trump-muslim-question-guy-years-ago/
If he was a Democrat plant, which I believe he was, his mission was a total failure because Trump handled the Question quite well. Democrats were not able to criticize him for the way he answered the question, so they slammed him for not defending Obama when the man called him a Muslim. Trump also handled that with ease by saying it was not his responsibility to defend the President.

Was Carson right about a Muslim President?
When Dr. Ben Carson
answered the question about whether he could support a Muslim for president,
his reply stirred up quite a hornet’s nest.
His reply was that he would not advocate having a Muslim as president,
that Islamic beliefs are inconsistent with the U.S. Constitution.
The following column by Pat Buchanan addresses that controversy in some detail.

A Muslim President? Was Ben Carson Right?
By Patrick
J. Buchanan
Tuesday - September 25, 2015
Beliefs matter. "Ideas Have Consequences," as conservative scholar Richard Weaver wrote in his classic of that title in 1948.
Yet, for so believing, and so saying, Dr. Ben Carson has been subjected to a Rodney King-style night-sticking by the P.C. police.
Asked by Chuck Todd on "Meet the Press" whether he could support a Muslim for president, Carson replied, "I would not advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation. I absolutely would not agree with that."
Carson was not out of the studio before the airwaves were filled with denunciations. Nihad Awad, executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, said CAIR is calling on Carson to "withdraw from the presidential race because he is unfit to lead, because his views are inconsistent with the United States Constitution."
In the name of tolerance, says CAIR, we cannot tolerate Carson.
And what does the Constitution say?
"[N]o religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States."
But Carson did not say no Muslim could serve. He said he would not advocate having a Muslim as president, that Islamic beliefs are inconsistent with the U.S. Constitution.
Is he wrong?
Or is it now impermissible to question a candidate's beliefs about God, man, and the state, and about whether his religious convictions might affect his conduct in office?
A man's religion is a part of who he is. While not an infallible guide to what he will do, it is often a reliable road map.
If Mormons still championed polygamy and declared that blacks could not be Mormons, would it be illegitimate to raise that issue?
Should a Quaker who believes in "turning the other cheek" not be pressed on whether his faith disqualifies him to be commander in chief?
If an Evangelical running for president believes the "end times" are at hand, would it be un-American to ask of the Armageddonite if his religious beliefs might affect his decision on war in the Middle East?
Islam means "submission." And a believing, practicing, devout Muslim believes in submission to the teachings of the Prophet.
That means not only following the dietary laws and fasting during Ramadan, but adhering to the tenets of Islam on the modesty of dress in women, praying five times a day to Mecca, and treating false faiths like Christianity as the great heresies that they are.
Anyone recall a collective protest from the Islamic world when that Afghan convert to Christianity was facing an executioner's ax?
Islam instructs its adherents not only on how to live their lives, but also how to organize their society.
Is Sharia consistent with the U.S. Constitution? Would not a Muslim presidential candidate have to reject Sharia for America, i.e, apostatize? And what is the penalty for apostasy in the Quran?
Would it violate the spirit of the Constitution to ask of a Muslim candidate whether he agrees with the Quran on the proper punishment for homosexuals, adulterers and thieves?
From the Maghreb to the Middle and Near East, in almost every society where Islam is the dominant faith, repression appears the rule.
Of the near 50 nations where Islam is the majority religion, where is the constitutional republic that resembles our own?
Carson says he would not support turning the armed forces of the United States over to a follower of a faith whose co-religionists have produced the modern Middle East. Why is that bigotry? Is Islam wholly disconnected to the horrors transpiring there?
Islam has bloody borders, observed Dr. Samuel Huntington. Of the ugliest terrorist organizations of which we daily read — Boko Haram, al-Qaida, ISIS, the al-Nusra Front, al-Shabaab — are not most of them proudly Muslim?
Given the sectarian war between the Shiites led by Iran and the Sunni led by the Saudis, would it violate the Constitution to ask our Muslim presidential candidate to which of these two he belonged?
Dr. Russell Kirk called ideology "political religion."
Atheists who embraced the political religion of Marxism-Leninism created the Stalinist Empire. Atheist Germans who embraced National Socialism as the state religion produced the Third Reich. And Islamists created Sudan, Saudi Arabia and the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Undeniably, Muslims have proven to be good American patriots, as did the Christians and the Jews who came before them.
But in Europe today, we see hundreds of thousands of Muslims pouring in, adding to the millions there, and they are all not assimilating.
Those elites who say they would be fine with a Muslim president are probably dissembling. Because that is the politically correct thing to say; it makes them feel superior; and no such candidate is in sight.
Indeed, the same elites who call it outrageous that Carson said a Muslim should not be president are the first and loudest to decry any suggestion that our current president is a Muslim.
Liberals like the idea of a Muslim president — in the abstract.

“In regard to religion, mutual toleration in
the different professions thereof is what all good and candid minds in all ages
have ever practised, and, both by precept and example, inculcated on mankind,” Adams
wrote. “And it is now generally agreed among Christians that this spirit of
toleration, in the fullest extent consistent with the being of civil society,
is the chief characteristical mark of the Church.”
Citing the great John Locke, Adams agreed with his assertion that toleration should only be extended to those with doctrines not deemed subversive to civil society.
“The only sects which he thinks ought to be, and which by all wise laws are excluded from such toleration, are those who teach doctrines subversive of the civil government under which they live,” Adams concluded.
Though Adams was writing mostly in regard to the Roman Catholic church of the time, his words were also quite applicable to Muslims and Islamic Shariah law, and remain so.
Islam seeks to conquer the world and implement their own set of theocratic laws in place of whatever laws governed civil society before. This cannot be allowed to happen in America.

Mr. Bucanan failed to mention that in 1772,
Founding Father Samuel Adams laid down limits to religious tolerance that also
would have prevented a Muslim from being president by refusing any toleration
of Islam in the first place.
In 1772, Adams wrote “The
Rights of the Colonists,” which in fact set forward something of a litmus test
for which religions were worthy of toleration and which ones were not.
Citing the great John Locke, Adams agreed with his assertion that toleration should only be extended to those with doctrines not deemed subversive to civil society.

IS OBAMA A MUSLIM, CHRISTIAN, OR ATHEISTS?
Why does Obama insist he is a Christian when
we all know he is not?
No true Christian would speak, believe, lie
and perform the circus act of hypocrisy and obnoxious, brazen lies and political
speak that Obama does to appease and pacify the elements of the population he
wants to deceive, insult and break down.
And don’t forget, way back in
2008 he stated that he was a Muslim.
There’s a video of it which will live in infamy on YouTube. Here is the
link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKGdkqfBICw
Now he proclaims he is a
Christian. He even attended an all
black, very racist church for several years, so what’s going on with this
guy? Well, here is the reason. Obama as always watched the polls to keep in
touch with what his voter base likes and dislikes. He doesn’t really care what us Conservatives
like, he just wants to keep his voter base.
So, he continues to pretend to be a Christian, even though he has nothing
but contempt for the church.
Pew Research Center asked people to rate religions. Turns out that black Protestants
take a very dim view of atheists. In
fact, only 30% of black Protestants have favorable views of atheists. The President has needed black voters to
support him. If he goes full atheist,
he’d see a dent in that support.
Obama may be the worst
President this country has ever had, but he is not stupid. He is very smart when it comes to politics,
or he would never have gotten as far as he has.
If he was half as skilled at running the country as he is at political manipulations,
he would have made a great President. He
has been clever enough to get everything passed, with or without the help of
Congress. Unfortunately though,
everything he has done has been bad if not downright disastrous for the
country.

WHY DON'T THEY IMPEACH HIM?
By constitutional design, impeachment for
“treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors” is a political accusation
and initiates a political remedy, not a legal one. It is pretty much up to Congress to define and
apply “high crimes and misdemeanors,” and no court would second-guess it.
The next
Congress could find that the president had violated his oath to “faithfully
execute” the laws by refusing to enforce important provisions of the Affordable
Care Act, No Child Left Behind and, now, the Immigration and Nationality Act.
The
president surely has some power to withhold prosecution, but granting legal
status and work permits to millions of people most likely exceeds his
discretion. No judge can decide the precise scope of his discretion because no
one, including Congress, has legal standing to challenge his order in court.

Who is Carly Fiorina
Carly Fiorina may have been the first
woman to lead a Fortune 50 business, but she turned out to be just as bad at it
as Barack Obama has been at running the country. Despite the spin she tries to put in, Carly
Fiorina was a disaster for Hewlett Packard.
Fiorina’s story is that she stormed into HP, turned the
company around and was unceremoniously fired because she challenged the status
quo. In actuality, she insisted on a controversial merger with Compaq, got her
way and it decimated the company. Fiorina loves to talk about HP’s increase in
raw numbers, but if two large computer companies merge, it’s almost a given
that the revenue and the number of patents produced by both companies combined
are going to increase.
What didn’t
increase was HP’s stock price. It dropped from $55 a share when Fiorina took over to a little less than
$20 a share under her leadership. There is a reason Fiorina shows up
on lists of the Worst CEOs Of All Time (See here, here, here, and here among others) and it’s not because the
whole business world is engaged in some kind of conspiracy to portray her as an
incompetent.
Let me also add that it’s not fair that Democrats will
attack her for firing 30,000 workers because unfortunately, that just comes
with the territory when you’re a CEO sometimes. However, if you think it
wouldn’t be incredibly effective to point out that Fiorina fired 30,000
workers, tanked the price of the company’s stock, damaged Hewlett Packard so
badly that it has yet to recover and STILL walked away with 100 million dollars
for being one of the worst CEOs of all time, you’re kidding yourself. For all
of his flaws, Mitt Romney was a gifted businessman and the Democrats managed to
falsely portray him as a heartless, greedy monster for doing far less than that
at Bain Capital.
If Carly Fiorina were to say that she’d run America like
she ran Hewlett Packard, it could be taken as a direct threat against the
country. So, what else does she have to offer as a candidate?
Oh, right! She’s supposedly a grassroots conservative
outsider! Yeah, well about that….
Fiorina has run for office before. During the Tea Party
tidal wave of 2010, there seemed to be an outside chance that Republicans might
be able to knock off Barbra Boxer in California. Granted, it’s California, so
it was always going to be a heavy lift, but after Scott Brown had won earlier
in the year in Massachusetts, it didn’t seem impossible that a Republican could
pull it off.
So, as we have often seen in these last few years, a
conservative grassroots candidate squared off with a moderate candidate backed
by the establishment. The grassroots conservative candidate was Chuck DeVore
and the establishment candidate was Carly Fiorina. Almost every big name
conservative except for Sarah Palin lined up behind DeVore (and I love Sarah,
but if Fiorina had been a man, there’s not a chance in the world she would have
gotten that endorsement.
That’s why Sarah had to deal with a big backlash from her own fans over backing Fiorina).
On the other hand, the NRSC, John McCain and Lindsey Graham were all supporting
Fiorina. Interesting question: When have John McCain, Lindsey Graham and the
NRSC EVER backed a conservative candidate over a moderate in a competitive
race? Yes, that’s right; they don’t do that. Ever.
After beating DeVore by outspending him more than 3-to1, Fiorina
went toe-to-toe with charisma-free Senator Barbara Boxer and got her brains
beaten in. Surprise, surprise -- Fiorina’s disastrous run at Hewlett Packard
turned out to be an anchor around her neck and the fact that she was such a
terrible politician that she signed off on bizarre garbage like the Demon
Sheep ad (IT APPEARS at 2:26) certainly didn’t help. In a year when
Republicans picked up 6 Senate seats, Boxer waltzed to a 10 point victory over
Fiorina.
So, Fiorina’s a failed CEO and it would be more accurate
to call her an “establishment favorite” than an outsider, but at least she’s a
hardcore conservative, right? Well….not so much. Here’s Redstate on Carly Fiorina back in 2010.
From her praise of Jesse Jackson, to her playing the race
and gender cards against DeVore, to her support for the Wall Street bailouts,
to her qualified support for the Obama stimulus, to her past support for
taxation of sales on the Internet, to her waffling on immigration, to her
support for Sonia Sotomayor, to her Master’s thesis advocating greater federal
control of local education, to her past support for weakening California’s
Proposition 13, to her statement to the San Francisco Chronicle editorial board
that Roe v. Wade is “a decided issue,” Carly Fiorina’s oft-repeated claim to be
a “lifelong conservative” was only plausible in the universe of NRSC staffers
who recruited her in the first place.
...She endorsed Federal funding of embryonic stem-cell
research for “extra” embyros.
She endorsed the California DREAM Act, which grants
in-state tuition to illegal immigrants.
She refused to endorse California’s Proposition 23, which
suspends the job-killing AB 32 climate-change law.
Fiorina also strongly supported Marco Rubio’s amnesty
plan that even he claims not to back anymore, endorsed cap & trade and
attacked Ted Cruz for being willing to shut down the government to stop
Obamacare.
How do you trust Fiorina on
immigration, small government issues, taxes, pro-life issues, global
warming or to even try to kill Obamacare after that?
Although it’s
very difficult to predict what’s going to happen in a primary season as crazy
as this one has been, the difference between what people THINK Fiorina is and
what she ACTUALLY is, is so great that we can hazard one guess: Carly Fiorina
is going to follow the 2012 pattern. People will initially get excited about
her, find out what her record really looks like and then she’ll quickly
implode.

OBAMA HAS BEEN PUNKED...again
Two
investigators who have studied the image of Mohamed’s device provided by Irving, Texas police have concluded that Mohamed did not
make the clock. Both conclude that
Mohamed disassembled a manufactured clock and installed it in a large pencil
box without its casing. And both say it
is possible it was done to provoke suspicion or to resemble a bomb.
If you want more proof it was all a hoax, read this:
AND THERE IS
ALSO THIS: http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/09/18/real-story-istandwithahmed/
AND THIS: http://louderwithcrowder.com/exposed-ahmed-mohamed-never-even-built-a-clock-new-video-emerges/
In my opinion, the real fool in this incident is President Obama.
This kid broke the law and Obama praises him and
invites him to the White House. We all
know if this had been a White Christian kid, he would have been expelled from
school.
Big Money Democratic Donors Urge Biden to Run.
A group of prominent Democratic Party fundraisers on Friday began circulating a letter to encourage a hesitant Vice President Joe Biden to enter the 2016 race for U.S. president.
The letter, signed by nearly 50 people, calls the Obama-Biden administration a "spectacular success." It cites job creation, a lower unemployment rate, new health insurance policies for nearly 9 million Americans and the end of wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
"To finish the job, America needs a leader who is respected both home and abroad, and who understands the real challenges facing American families. In our opinion, the next president must be Joe Biden. If he announces he’s running, we’re all in. It’s a campaign we know he will win," the letter says.
SOURCE: http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/09/18/us-usa-election-biden-exclusive-idUSKCN0RI25F20150918
It should be quite obvious to
anyone with a brain that these people are either flat out lying, because there’s
something in it for them. Or they are delusional.
But, my point is; if he
decides to run, and the big money of the Democrat Political machine backs him, It’s
curtains for both Hillary and Berney. At
least that’s the way I see it. All
three of them are hard core socialist anyway, but Hillary is the most corrupt and
despicable of the three.

WARNING...The Sea Levels are Rising...WARNING
I read an article the other day written by
one of those wacky climate change alarmist, warning mankind to stop burning
fossil fuels because the CO2 was causing global warming, which was melting the
polar ice, which was causing the sea levels to rise, which was going to destroy
mankind.
That may be the longest sentence I have ever
written…
It is true that climate
change does exist. It is also true that the sea level is rising. It is also true that BOTH have ALWAYS been
occurring and are not caused by mankind burning fossil fuels.
The main cause of rising sea
levels, in my opinion is erosion, which we cannot eliminate, but we really
could reduce. If you have ever seen the Grand Canyon, you have seen the result of erosion by a single
river. Where do you think all those thousands cubic yards of soil and rock
ended up? Yep, on the ocean floor which
raised the sea level, and there are a bunch of rivers and streams on this
planet. There is also erosion of beaches
by the surf and tides. And let’s not
forget erosion by wind.
Another cause of rising sea
levels is volcanic activity, and I’m not just talking about the visible lava
flow that you can actually see flowing into the ocean, like in Hawaii. There are
hundreds, maybe even thousands of under water volcanoes out there in the
oceans.
Another cause of rising sea
levels is space dust, or “cosmic dust” falling to earth. I know some will be skeptical of this one, so
I included a couple of links. http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2015/01/150128-big-bang-universe-supernova-astrophysics-health-space-ngbooktalk/
If 60 tons of space dust fall
to earth every single day, a heck of a lot surely ends up in the ocean.
There is no Scientific Global Warming Consensus, and there never has been.

This is Fishier than a Sardine Smoothie.
Have you heard the news that
all of a sudden Iran has discovered they have a whole lot more
uranium than they thought they had?
Did you think that the timing
of this “discovery” was a wee bit suspicious?
Well, I think it’s a whole lot more than a wee bit suspicious. I think it’s fishier than a sardine
smoothie.
I
think it’s all about campaign donations for the DNC. If you GOOGLE “Hillary Clinton + Uranium
Deal” I’m pretty sure you can connect the dots.
Consider
if you will, the following list of coincidences:
COINCIDENCE #1…When Hillary Clinton was Secretary of State; she approved a
sale to Russia.
COINCIDENCE #2…That sale was for
uranium mines in America.
COINCIDENCE #3…Shortly after that
sale, a bunch of rich folks in Russia paid bill Clinton 200,000.00 dollars for
a half hour speech... now who in there right mind, in Russia or anywhere else,
would pay bill Clinton 200,000.00 dollars for a thirty minute speech?
COINCIDENCE #4…Obama and John Kerry
work their butts off to push through the infamous Iranian Nuke deal which along
with a bunch of other idiotic things would remove the sanctions on Iran.
COINCIDENCE #5… Iran says they just
recently found a mysterious deposit of uranium in Iran…Yeah well they had to
say that or the IAEA would be asking some pretty ugly questions.
Of
course none of these “coincidences” really prove ties to campaign donations to
the DNC, but Obama knows how to extort money out of everyone. With his ties to Chicago gangsters he has pros
working for him.
The
whole world wants in on the Iran deal to capitalize on
the fortunes to be made there. I’m sure
there will be all sorts of back room deals made.
American
corporations make donations to the DNC, and in return Obama delivers the Iranian
markets to their door step...That's how Chicago style politics works...

A full-scale revolt against House Speaker Rep. John Boehner
A full-scale revolt against House Speaker Rep. John Boehner (R-OH) —including a looming resolution that could come up for a vote at any time that would remove him from the speakership—has thrown into disarray the House GOP leadership’s previously carefully laid plans to push President Obama’s nuclear arms deal with Iran through Congress without a fight.
Amid a rebellion in the House GOP conference meeting on Wednesday morning, leadership canceled a previously scheduled rule vote that would have set up the House putting through a resolution of disapproval of the president’s Iran deal under the terms of legislation previously signed into law from Sens. Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN) and Ben Cardin (D-MD).This all happened as a result of an argument furthered by Reps. Rep. Mike Pompeo (R-KS) and Pete Roskam (R-IL) that Congress shouldn’t even vote on the Corker-Cardin resolution, either approving or disapproving of the Iran deal, since the president has not yet complied with the law regarding the release of text of the deal including “side deals” cut with Tehran.
Have you read Obama's Playbook?
