Military Told Not To Read Obama-Scandal News

 
Verizon phone records story off-limits to airmen...
 
President Obama has said the outrage over the federal government’s decision to monitor citizens’ phone activity is all “hype.”
      
He might want to share his opinion with the U.S. Air Force, which is ordering members of the service not to look at news stories about it.



WND has received an unclassified NOTAM (Notice to Airmen) that warns airmen not to look at news stories related to the data-mining scandal.

The notice applies to users of the Air Force NIPRNET (Non-classified Internet Protocol Router Network), which is the only way that many troops stationed overseas and on bases in the U.S. are able to access the Internet.

The last line of the executive summary states:

“Users are not to use AF NIPRNET systems to access the Verizon phone records collection and other related news stories because the action could constitute a Classified Message Incident.”

Cindy McGee, the mother of an airman stationed in the UAE, spoke with WND.

“The fact that our government is attempting to censor our service members from the truth of what is happening here at home is truly frightening and disheartening,” said McGee.

Her son received the same notice.

McGee continued, “I am outraged that our government is attempting to censor the information from our military that every citizen in this country is potentially being targeted by our government in a massive overreach of their constitutional powers by unconstitutional surveillance of all Americans and storage of that data.”

Get Your Free Stuff Here...If You Really Want It

 
A Mexican (an undocumented Democrat), a Black (a documented Democrat), a Muslim and a Redneck were walking together on a beach when the Black stumbled over a bottle in the sand. He picked up the bottle, rubbed the sand off it, and a Genie appeared.
 
 



"I can only grant four wishes," the Genie said. "Since there are four of you, you may have a wish apiece." Pointing at the Black, he said, "Since you found the bottle, you may have the first wish."

The Black thought for a moment then said, "I wish for a fleet of ships so that I can gather all my people and take them back to our homeland, Africa ." Poof! It was done! Thousands of ships appeared on the skyline.

The Mexican said, "I weesh for enough Cheby peekups to take all my peoples back to our homeland, May-he-co!" Poof! It was done! Row after row of Chevrolet pickups appeared on the beach.

The Muslim said, "I wish for a hundred thousand camels to take all of my people away from this horrible country loaded with infidels so we can live in peace in Muslim countries and serve Allah." Poof! It was done! A hundred thousand camels suddenly appeared on the beach.

Turning to the Redneck, the Genie asked, "And what is your wish?"

The Redneck watched as the loaded pickups began moving toward the border, then looked out to sea and watched the loaded ships sailing out into the sunset, then he looked at all of the Muslims getting on top of the camels and riding off.
 
 

The Redneck said, "Just give me a Bud Lite. It doesn't get any better than this!"
 
 
 
NOW FOR THE MUSICAL VERSION...
 
 

 
AND NOW THE GUY'S VERSION!!!

"Invade Israel...The Jews Are Too Rich And Powerful"


By Debbie Schlussel---SOURCE

Back during the 2008 Barack Obama campaign for President, the Democratic nominee got rid of campaign adviser Samantha Power after she called Hillary Clinton “a monster,” and a 2002 video, below, came to light, in which she called for the U.S. to invade Israel. But everyone knew that she was still advising Obama behind the scenes and has been to date.



And, today, Obama made that fact official by leaking to the media that Power is his choice for new U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, as he moves Susan Rice to National Security Adviser (hey, we’ve already had one incompetent Rice as NSA Adviser, so why not another?).



What is even more offensive, though, in the video and gets less play is Power’s anti-Semitic comment about Jews being too rich and politically powerful in the United States. She talks about how her suggestion for invading Israel and spending U.S. money on bolstering a Palestinian State (which seems to be the only state she wants in what is Israel) will “alienat[e] a domestic constituency of [laugh, laugh, giggle, giggle] tremendous political and financial import.”

She’s clearly referring to Jews and saying they are too rich and too powerful. I want to know, as a Jewish-American so stereotyped by her where my tremendous riches and power are and why, if my riches and power are so great, an anti-Israel Prez–who nominates scum like her–got elected.




By the way, if you look at Eva Braun’s, er . . . Samantha Power’s pics online, she seems like an egomaniac who fancies herself a supermodel of some sort. Sadly, we have to take this Jew-hater seriously.

There are enough far-left, pan-Muslim Israel haters in her native Ireland (where she grew up). Why must we have this crappy import, Ms. Power, pretending to represent America in the U.N.?

Lois Lerner: Accessory To Terror Funding




 

Man, Sex, God, and Yale

 
I have been reviewing this book recently, and I am now sharing this article in Imprimis with you in it's entirety. I have found this to be one of the most inspiring and chilling pieces that I have read in some time.
 
This should be shared widely!

Nathan Harden
Editor, The College Fix


NATHAN HARDEN is editor of The College Fix, a higher education news website, and blogs about higher education for National Review Online. A 2009 graduate of Yale, he has written for numerous publications, including National Review, The Weekly Standard, The American Spectator, The New York Post, and The Washington Times. He was a 2011 Robert Novak Fellow at the Phillips Foundation, a 2010 Publius Fellow at the Claremont Institute, and is author of the recent book
Sex and God at Yale: Porn, Political Correctness, and a Good Education Gone Bad

IN 1951, William F. Buckley, Jr., a graduate of Yale the year before, published his first book, God & Man at Yale. In the preface, he described two ideas that he had brought with him to Yale and that governed his view of the world:


"I had always been taught, and experience had fortified the teachings, that an active faith in God and a rigid adherence to Christian principles are the most powerful influences toward the good life. I also believed, with only a scanty knowledge of economics, that free enterprise and limited government had served this country well and would probably continue to do so in the future."

The body of the book provided evidence that the academic agenda at Yale was openly antagonistic to those two ideas—that Buckley had encountered a teaching and a culture that were hostile to religious faith and that promoted collectivism over free market individualism. Rather than functioning as an open forum for ideas, his book argued, Yale was waging open war upon the faith and principles of its alumni and parents.

Liberal bias at American colleges and universities is something we hear a lot about today. At the time, however, Buckley’s exposé was something new, and it stirred national controversy. The university counterattacked, and Yale trustee Frank Ashburn lambasted Buckley and his book in the pages of Saturday Review magazine.

Whether God & Man at Yale had any effect on Yale’s curriculum is debatable, but its impact on American political history is indisputable. It argued for a connection between the cause of religious faith on the one hand, and the cause of free market economics on the other. In a passage whose precise wording was later acknowledged to have been the work of Buckley’s mentor Willmoore Kendall—a conservative political scientist who was driven out of Yale a few years later—Buckley wrote:

"I consider this battle of educational theory important and worth time and thought even in the context of a world situation that seems to render totally irrelevant any fight except the power struggle against Communism. I myself believe that the duel between Christianity and atheism is the most important in the world. I further believe that the struggle between individualism and collectivism is the same struggle reproduced on another level."

This idea, later promoted as “fusionism” in Buckley’s influential magazine National Review, would become the germ of the Reagan coalition that united social conservatives and free market libertarians—a once-winning coalition that has been lately unraveling.

I graduated from Yale in 2009, fifty-nine years after Buckley. I had a chance to meet him a couple of years before his death, at a small gathering at the home of a professor. Little did I know at the time that I would write a book of my own that would serve, in some ways, as a continuation of his famous critique.

My book—which I entitled Sex and God at Yale—shows that Yale’s liberals are still actively working to refashion American politics and culture. But the devil is in the details, and it’s safe to say that there are things happening at Yale today that Buckley could scarcely have even imagined in 1951. While the Yale of Buckley’s book marginalized or undermined religious faith in the classroom, my book tells of a classmate who was given approval to create an art object out of what she claimed was blood and tissue from self-induced abortions. And while the Yale of Buckley’s book was promoting socialist ideas in its economics department, my book chronicles Yale’s recent employment of a professor who publicly praised terrorist organizations such as Hamas and Hezbollah.

My, how times have changed!

There is clearly a radical sexual agenda at work at Yale today. Professors and administrators who came of age during the sexual revolution are busily indoctrinating students into a culture of promiscuity. In fact, Yale pioneered the hosting of a campus “Sex Week”—a festival of sleaze, porn, and debauchery, dressed up as sex education. I encountered this tawdry tradition as an undergrad, and my book documents the events of Sex Week, including the screening in classrooms of hard-core pornography and the giving of permission to sex toy manufacturers and porn production companies to market their products to students.

In one classroom, a porn star stripped down to bare breasts, attached pinching and binding devices to herself as a lesson in sadomasochism, and led a student around the room in handcuffs. On other occasions, female students competed in a porn star look-alike contest judged by a male porn producer, and a porn film showing a woman bound and beaten was screened in the context of “instruction” on how students might engage in relationships of their own.

And again, these things happened with the full knowledge and approval of Yale’s senior administrators.

As might be expected, many Yale students were offended by Sex Week, but university officials defended it in the name of “academic freedom”—a sign of how far this noble idea, originally meant to protect the pursuit of truth, has fallen. And the fact that Yale as an institution no longer understands the substantive meaning of academic freedom—which requires the ability to distinguish art from pornography, not to mention right from wrong—is a sign of its enslavement to the ideology of moral relativism, which denies any objective truth (except, of course, for the truth that there is no truth).

Under the dictates of moral relativism, no view is any more valid than any other view, and no book is any greater or more worth reading than any other book. Thus the old idea of a liberal education—that each student would study the greatest books, books organized into a canon based on objective criteria that identify them as valuable—has given way to a hodgepodge of new disciplines—African-American Studies, Latino Studies, Native American Studies, Women’s Studies, Gay and Lesbian Studies—based on the assumption that there is no single way to describe the world that all serious and open-minded students can comprehend.

Indeed, Yale administrators have taken their allegiance to cultural relativism so far that they invited a sworn enemy of America to be a student, admitting Sayed Rahmatulla Hashemi—a former diplomat-at-large for the Taliban—in 2005. Talk about diversity!

Sitting for my final exam in International Relations, I found myself next to Hashemi, whose comrades were fighting and killing my fellow citizens in the mountains of Afghanistan at that very moment. The fact that the Taliban publicly executes homosexuals and infidels, and denies girls and women the right to go to school, gave no pause to the same Yale administrators who pride themselves on their commitment to gay rights, feminism, and academic freedom. In an interview, Hashemi boasted to the New York Times: “I could have ended up in Guantanamo Bay. Instead, I ended up at Yale.”

It’s hard to overlook the paradox: 
By enrolling Hashemi in the name of diversity, Yale abandoned the principle of human rights—the very principle that allows diverse individuals, including those of different faiths, to coexist peacefully.

It was my aim in writing Sex and God at Yale to bring accountability to Yale’s leaders in hopes of reform. Yale has educated three of the last four presidents, and two of the last three justices appointed to the Supreme Court. What kind of leaders will it be supplying in ten years, given its current direction?

Unfortunately, what’s happening at Yale is indicative of what is occurring at colleges and universities across the country. Sex Week, for example, is being replicated at Harvard, Brown, Duke, Northwestern, the University of Illinois, and the University of Wisconsin. Nor would it suffice to demand an end to Sex Weeks on America’s college campuses. Those events are, after all, only symptoms of a deeper emptiness in modern academia. Our universities have lost touch with the purpose of liberal arts education, the pursuit of truth. In abandoning that mission—indeed, by denying its possibility—our institutions of higher learning are afflicted to the core.

The political freedom that makes a liberal arts education possible requires an ongoing and active defense of liberty. Try exercising academic freedom in a place like Tehran or Kabul!

Here in the U.S., we take our liberty far too much for granted. To the extent that Yale and schools like it succeed in producing leaders who subscribe to the ideology of moral relativism—and who thus see no moral distinction between America and its enemies—we will likely be disabused of this false sense of security all too soon.

If you are looking for a good laugh when it comes to campus news, check out The Daily Caller’s inaugural “College Stupidity Awards” – which chronicles “the 20 stupidest, most outrageous and most cringe-worthy campus moments of  2012-13.”

The awards run the gamut, from “Dartmouth College: Most likely to let the terrorists win” and “George Washington University: Most prone to commit crimes against soda, 

Catholics, U.S. News and World Report, and Mount Rushmore” to “Columbia University: Most demented, homicidal faculty” and “Northwestern University: Most delicious multicultural blowback, con queso.”

Many of the stories the list highlights have been broached here, among the 2012-13 annals of The College Fix, but the article summarizes them in a clever, lighthearted way, allowing us to laugh and shake our heads at the absurdity of it all.

Flyin' High In Lil' Chicago


 
I’m hearing the sound of three rumbling radial engines as I type this today. No, I’m not aboard the Tri-Motor now, but it’s made about its third pass over downtown Steubenville today, and it’s really, really cool.

WTOV 9  See Video HERE

      
I flew aboard on Monday, its first passenger flight out of the Jefferson County Airpark, with Capt. Cody Welch in the left seat and Bill Thacker in the right seat. It’s always a good thing to have a couple of experienced airline pilots up in the nose of the plane. Welch is retired after a career with Northwest and Thacker is fitting in his Tri-Motor trips between duties for United Airlines. It’s also kind of cool that your pilots are wearing shorts and Hawaiian shirts and ballcaps.  
 

    I want to go visit Jimmy Buffet in this thing! What an experience it was, climbing up a little step and going back 84 years. Lindbergh had made it to Paris just two years before this product of Henry Ford’s factories lofted its way into the skies.

    
I’ve been fortunate to fly three kinds of planes with round engines: A Douglas DC 3 (C-4 Dakota), a B-17 and two Tri-Motors (of the four flying, I’ve been aboard half the fleet!). There is something exciting, beckoning the mind to adventure, in that deep bass drum sound.     It’s easy to forget the engines are likely to be burning or puking out a lot of oil during and after the flight. As long as they’re making that sound, it’s all good.     

The aisle of the Ford wouldn’t fit the average U.S. airline passenger anymore. People who complain about having to pay extra for luggage or a second seat for their XXL butts would have had a problem in the 1920s and 1930s if they were fortunate enough to go flying. I dare say 100 lbs ago, I’d not have fit up the aisle or into the seats. The seats are narrow, arranged in single rows on each side of the tiny aisle.

Everybody gets a big picture window. For ventilation, there’s a rotating plastic vent, smack dab in the middle of each window. You can pull it shut or open it up and aim it forward for fresh air, or turn it facing the back to pull air out...perfect if you smoked aboard, but you cannot, and not just because this is a domestic airliner.    

It is a museum piece. It neither needs nor wants nor could stand up to cigarette smoke, ashes, the smell, burns in the seat. Did I mention it’s a kind of flammable environment in a plane made of thin corrugated steel with wooden window frames and gasoline in the wing tanks right above your windows and flowing by gravity into the engines, including one up in front of the cockpit. So put it out, butt-head, and enjoy flight as it was.

The fat wings of the Tri-Motor help it stay aloft even in bumpy air without transmitting that “struck a big pothole” feeling one gets in the average 737 about 100 times during any flight. The Tri-Motor mushes along, pushing the air into submission, not allowing it’s flight to be disturbed. Indeed, it’s nickname, “The Tin Goose” is apt, for she flies like a majestic goose, slowly arching her way across the sky.     

Those 400-plus-horsepower Pratt and Whitney radials thrumming along the whole time is a pleasant effect that brings to mind the romance of flight, visions of starch-collared captains in natty uniforms, people in their Sunday finest in the seats. But when you get out, your ears will be ringing a little. Again, not unpleasant, but for the rest of the day on Tuesday I was speaking really softly because I was hearing “vrrruuuummmm-ummmmm-ummmmmmmmmm” in my ears.

Cool. I'm glad it's gone by four times now as I wrap this up. It means you're visiting the airport, and you're sharing the experience I had.      

And that's cool, too.

Mark Steyn: Lois Lerner's IRS & The Obama Memorial Latrine


Obama Declares Evangelical Christians the Enemies of Obamastan

 
 
As you may know, The Department of "Social Justice" under the treasonous Eric Holder has decreed that any anti-Islamic postings may be a civil rights violation.
 
 
A U.S. attorney in Tennessee is reportedly suggesting that anti-Islam postings on social media could actually be considered civil rights violations.
Bill Killian, U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Tennessee, told the Tullahoma News that inflammatory or hateful posts could potentially run afoul of the law. He will speak next week alongside the head of the FBI’s Knoxville office at a meeting sponsored by a local American Muslim advisory group.

by Sheikyermami on June 2, 2013


I’m not kidding. To say that Obama is a false flag operation would be an understatement. “Fundamental transformation” means doing away with America as we know it.

Army Briefing On Extremists To US Military Says ‘Evangelical Christians Are Number 1′ Threat

Thanks to Pamela Geller:


Soldiers in the U.S. military have been told in a training briefing that evangelical Christians are the No. 1 extremist threat to America – ahead of groups like the Muslim Brotherhood, KKK, Nation of Islam, al-Qaida, Hamas and others.

Pentagon Denies Relationship with Anti-Christian Extremist; Instantly Complies with His Demands...Read It Here

Its worse than you think:

U.S. Naval Academy Instructor Teaching on Behalf of the Muslim Brotherhood:

This is devastating. Stealth coup. The IIIT is an Islamic institution with ties to the extremist Saudi-Wahhabi movement. It was co-founded by Anwar Ibrahim, who strives to present himself to the West as a moderate, but who in fact is an Islamic supremacist who promotes global Islamic rule based on Sharia law.

IIIT was named in a May 1991 Muslim Brotherhood document — titled “An Explanatory Memorandum on the General Strategic Goal for the Group in North America – as one of the Brotherhood’s 29 likeminded “organizations of our friends” that shared the common goal of destroying America and turning it into a Muslim nation. These “friends” were identified by the Brotherhood as groups that could help teach Muslims “that their work in America is a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and ‘sabotaging’ its miserable house by their hands … so that … God’s religion [Islam] is made victorious over all other religions.” (source: DTN)

 By Global Muslim Brotherhood Watch

According to promotional material, a United States Naval Academy professor is teaching on behalf of the International Institute of Islamic Thought (IIIT), a part of the US Muslim Brotherhood and where global Brotherhood leader Youssef Qaradawi reportedly serves as a trustee. IIIT recently announced its Summer Students Program for 2013 to be held from May 26 – July 3. According to the IIIT announcement, one of the instructors for the program will be Professor Ermin Sinanovic, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland who will be teaching the following course titled “Muslim World Affairs”:
 
This course is meant to provide students who had little or no background on the Muslim world with a basic understanding of its contemporary history, its geopolitics, its diverse cultures, languages and ethnic groups. Also, the course introduces the key issues and developments that framed the relationship between the world of Islam and the West, such as the colonial encounter, the capitalist expansion of the West, the emergence of the nation-state and its institutions, the discovery of oil in the Middle East and its implications, the communication revolution and contemporary globalization and their impact on cultures, values and life styles; and finally the US foreign policy towards the Muslim world and its implications. This course will be covered in twelve hours. Instructor: Professor Ermin Sinanovic, US Naval Academy, Maryland.
 
According to his bio, Ermin Sinanovic is:
…an Assistant Professor in the Department of Political Science at the United States Naval Academy in Annapolis, Maryland, USA. He studied for an MA and a PhD in Political Science at the Maxwell School of Syracuse University. Prof. Sinanovic obtained two BAs (one in Qur’an and Sunnah Studies, the other in Political Science) and an MA (Islamic Civilization) from the International Islamic University Malaysia. His research interests include transnational Islamic revival, Southeast Asian politics, Islamic movements, Middle East politics, Islamic political thought, and Islam and politics in general. At the Naval Academy, Prof. Sinanovic teaches courses on Southeast Asian politics, Middle East politics, and Islam and politics. He speaks Bosnian, English, Arabic, and Malay.
 
One of the other instructors at the IIIT summer program will be US Muslim Brotherhood leader Louay Safi, identified in the announcement as affiliated with the College of Islamic Studies of the Qatar Foundation. In 2009 Louay Safi, also an official at the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA), was at the center of a controversy when it was learned that the US Defense Department brought him to Fort Hood as an instructor and that he had been lecturing on Islam to troops in Fort Hood who were about to deploy to Afghanistan. In February 2010, the activities and lectures of Dr. Safi on all military bases were suspended pending a criminal inquiry by the U.S. military. A shooting took place at Fort Hood near Killeen, Texas on November 5, 2009 in which a single gunman killed 13 people and over 30 people were injured in the worst shooting ever to take place on an American military base. The only suspect in the shooting is Nidal Malik Hasan, a 39-year-old U.S. Army major serving as a psychiatrist. Dr. Safi has also been recently identified as a leading member of the Syrian National Council, a Syrian opposition group dominated by the Muslim Brotherhood.

“Men and women of faith who have served the Army faithfully for centuries shouldn’t be likened to those who have regularly threatened the peace and security of the United States,” said Col. (Ret.) Ron Crews, executive director of the Chaplain Alliance for Religious Liberty.
 
“It is dishonorable for any U.S. military entity to allow this type of wrongheaded characterization. It also appears that some military entities are using definitions of ‘hate’ and ‘extreme’ from the lists of anti-Christian political organizations. That violates the apolitical stance appropriate for the military.”
 
The material mentions neo-Nazis, the KKK and other white supremacist organizations. Pictures are shown on various slides of people in Klan attire and Nazi flags. The significance of gang tattoos, and racist acronyms and the significance of numbers were also discussed.
 
While the material on gangs and racist organizations is similar to what one might receive from a local police briefing on gang issues, after teaching on neo-Nazis in the military such as Timothy McVeigh, the material makes an amazing link.
 
A slide titled “Religious Extremism” lists multiple organizations such as the Muslim Brotherhood, al-Qaida, Hamas, the Nation of Islam, the Ku Klux Klan and the Christian Identity movement as examples of extremist groups - the first group on the list is evangelical Christianity. Catholicism and ultra-orthodox Judaism are also on the list of religious extremist organizations.
 
The briefing, which was given to an Army reserve unit in Pennsylvania, came from a U.S. Army Reserve Equal Opportunity training brief titled “Extremism and Extremist Organizations.”
 
Lists of groups kept by the Southern Poverty Law Center was key to the presentation. This is the same SPLC which spawned the “Chic-Fil-A backpack terrorist” who used the list to develop a target list.
 
 
Here’s a short quote: 

The number of hate groups, extremists and anti‐govt organizations in the U.S. has
continued to grow over the past three years, according to reports by the Southern Poverty
Law Center.

They increased to 1,018 in 2011, up from 1,002 in 2010 and 602 in 2000.
The striking rise is fueled by the superheated fears generated by economic dislocation, a
proliferation of demonizing conspiracy theories, the changing racial make‐up of America
and the prospect of 4 more years under a black president who many on the far right view
as an enemy to their country country.
The rise in hate crimes and extremism outside the military may be an indication of internal
issues all services will have to face…

Mayhem in the city: 25 people shot in 48 hours

 
ANOTHER LIBERAL UTOPIA
 
Cops check the scene of a deadly gun battle at Bedford Ave. and Lenox Road in Brooklyn on Sunday.
 


Violence surged like the mercury Sunday, with three more fatalities from gun violence — and eight others wounded in shootings — bringing the total number of bullet-riddled in the city to 25 in less than 48 hours.

Only Staten Island was safe from the wide-ranging spray of gunfire and sickening weekend bloodshed. At least 12 people were blasted in Brooklyn, eight in the Bronx and another four in Queens. The sole person shot in Manhattan took several slugs to the chest and perished in broad daylight.

Sunday’s first fatality was Ivan Martinez, 21, who was approached around 3:25 a.m. by a 20-year-old gunman and a woman at E. 139th St. near Brook Ave. in the Bronx, police said.
The gunman shot Martinez once in the head and ran off with the woman.

She will never walk again.

“She can’t feel her legs. She has pain in her arms,” said her heartbroken mother Priscilla Mazyck, 46.

On Saturday night, a heroic 15-year-old girl in the Bronx dodged death and was shot in the leg as she pushed a toddler in a baby carriage to safety.

White House: "Federal Contractor Executive Pay Higher Than Obama’s Salary Is “Excessive”…



So Obama is going to propose capping their pay so nobody makes more than he does. Really, can’t make this stuff up.

On Thursday, the White House’s administrator for federal procurement policy, Joe Jordan, wrote on the White House blog about a legislative initiative that President Obama is sending to Congress next week “to stop excessive payments to Federal contractors.” Jordan continues:




“The proposal builds on previous Administration proposals and language included in the President’s Budget, and marks another important step in our ongoing effort to buy smarter and end wasteful, fiscally imprudent contract spending.
