Mayor Progberg not content with banning Slurpees, banning soft drinks, banning salt, banning donuts, banning foods he and his prog-minded insufferable prog-followers do not think you should have….. is now demanding the nation ban guns just like their prog-heaven New Prog City.   Insufferable progrocrats, all.of.them.

I am so sick of their pontificating elitist BS I could just spit…… maybe I will.

(Politico) — A gun control group led by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and backed by survivors of the 2011 Tuscon shooting is demanding in a new ad that Mitt Romney and Barack Obama take clear stances on the issue.

In the wake of Friday’s massacre in Aurora, Colo., Mayors Against Illegal Guns took out a full-page ad in Wednesday’s USA Today asking the candidates to release gun control plans. The ad is signed by 11 survivors of the January 2011 mass shooting in Tucson, Ariz., that injured Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and killed six. The daughter of one of the dead also signed the ad, which asserts that 48,000 people will die from gun violence during the next president’s four-year term. (more…)

Huma Abedin has specific “ties” to the Muslim Brotherhood, this is not in dispute; it is a fact.   Huma’s Egyptian mother is an open member of the Muslim Sisterhood.   So the answer from DHS Secretary Napolitano is flat-out “false”, or in real words, “a lie”.   The issue is NOT if she has ties, that is self-evident, the issue is whether the actual ties have “influence” over her. 

Huma Abedin’s mother, Saleha, who is a member  of the Muslim Brotherhood’s female division (the “Muslim Sisterhood”),  is a major figure in not one but two Union for Good components. The  first is the International Islamic Council for Dawa and Relief (IICDR).  It is banned in Israel for supporting Hamas under the auspices of the  Union for Good. Then there’s the International Islamic Committee for  Woman and Child (IICWC) — an organization that Dr. Saleha Abedin has  long headed. Dr. Abedin’s IICWC describes itself as part of the IICDR.  And wouldn’t you know it, the IICWC charter was written by none other than, wait for it, Sheikh Yusuf al-Qaradawi, the Muslim Brotherhood’s chief sharia jurist, in conjunction with several self-proclaimed members of the Muslim Brotherhood.

Prog-logic is always based on various degrees of obfuscation, disingenuous hair-splitting and semantics.  (See Bill Clinton “it depends on what your definition of “is” is…. )  In Napolitano’s answers to the faux-questioning from Sheila Jackson Lee you find all of these aspects propagated to create specifically worded distractions.

Alarming to say the least.   However, the easiest way to deconstruct the falsehoods amid trained and comfortable liars are with additional questions, which -by the way- are always missed.   Such a question like:  “So Abedin’s mother is not then a member of the Muslim Sisterhood”?   This type of follow-up question always brings out the liar in the room.

A liar is bound by their connective ideology to continue shaping, molding and tweaking their response out of a necessary aim toward deflection.   The truth teller does not hold the same capacity to change their response with any adjustment.  Someone telling the truth has to repeat the same response over and over, because the truth does not change, it exists without variation, and does not have an agenda in delivery.

WASHINGTON DC – During a hearing Wednesday with the House Homeland Security Committee, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) asked Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano if DHS had discovered any links between a high-ranking official in the State Department and the Muslim Brotherhood.

The question was a nod to a letter authored by Rep. Michele Bachmann and signed by five House Republicans that was sent to the State Department. (more…)

WASHINGTON – Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano told lawmakers on Wednesday that a member of an Egyptian militant group labeled by the United States as a terrorist organization was vetted by three U.S. agencies before visiting the White House.

Napolitano said the State Department, the Department of Homeland Security, and the Secret Service all thoroughly examined the Egyptian man, Hani Nour Eldin, before his visit to Washington D.C. where he met with members of Congress and senior administration officials.

Eldin is a member of the Gama’a al-Islamiyya, or Islamic Group, which has been designated by the State Department as a foreign terrorist organization. But Eldin was also recently elected as a member of Egypt’s parliament in the Islamic Group’s political offshoot, the Building and Development Party. (more…)

I posted a link to this on the open, but just decided it’s too good to bury. Enjoy.

I enjoyed this show when it was on TV…. 

Via TMZ – Sherman Hemsley, the actor who made the character George Jefferson famous in “The Jeffersons,” has died, El Paso cops tell TMZ.  Hemsley died at his home in El Paso, Texas.  Sources tell TMZ it appears Hemsley died from natural causes.

Hemsley, who was 74, became famous during his appearances on “All in the Family.”  The spin-off, “The Jeffersons” was a monster hit.  He also starred in the TV show, “Amen.”  He was also a professional singer and even released the single in 1989, “Ain’t that A Kick in the Head.”  Hemsley had no wife and no kids. It’s unclear how he died. (more…)

(Huffington Idjits) Less than one week after the mass shooting which left 12 dead at a movie theater in Aurora, Colo., the Denver Post reports background checks for people wanting to purchase firearms in the state have jumped more than 41 percent.

“It’s been insane,” Rocky Mountain Guns and Ammo employee Jake Meyers told the paper, saying there were already 15-20 people waiting outside the store when he arrived at work Friday morning, just hours after the massacre.

Over the weekend, the Colorado Bureau of Investigations approved 2,887 background checks for people seeking to purchase a firearm, according to the Post.

The spike follows an example set in Arizona, where gun sales soared following a shooting which left six dead and 13 wounded, including Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, according to Bloomberg.

That report cited data from the Federal Bureau of Investigations, which found one-day sales of handguns in Arizona jumped 60 percent two days after the shooting. (more…)
