Gee Obama, how’s all that apologetic inferiority working out now?   Why doesn’t someone just point out that when these same rabid islamo-creatures blow up a mosque they are destroying dozens and dozens of the same book.

KABUL (WSJ) —Two high-ranking U.S. military advisers were killed Saturday during a clash with an Afghan national at Afghanistan’s Interior Ministry headquarters, according to Afghan and Western officials.

An American colonel and major were both found shot in the head at the busy ministry compound that is the nerve center for the Afghan law enforcement, according to one Western official in Kabul. (more…)

Gather around, boys and girls, for another quick lesson in real-world Nugenomics 101. Not “if” but “when”gas prices soar to four bucks a gallon this summer, the impact to our economy will be thunderous.

With the national average price for a gallon of gas already at $3.65 a gallon, our anemic economy already is being battered. Prices for food are already high and going higher. No tax on the poor – right, President Obama?

America’s economy is intrinsically aligned with fuel prices because the lifeblood of our economy is oil. Four-dollar-a-gallon gas will not just sting at the pump but also will put the squeeze on every American for milk and cookies at the grocery store and every product we purchase because they are all delivered to stores by truck.

“Record oil prices are driving oil industry profits through the roof, while Alaska’s working families struggle to keep their homes and feed their children. That must change. We need to invest in a clean energy future, by pursuing the Alaska pipeline. We’ve already taken ownership of this effort in Alaska, but you need a president who’s fighting with you to make it a reality. And that’s the kind of president I will be.”

(Via Doug Ross)  Ron Paul’s campaign has admitted that it is directly supporting Mitt Romney. The Paul campaign is spending its contributors’ money, for instance, by running anti-Santorum attack ads in Michigan even though Paul himself isn’t actively campaigning in the state!

With that in mind, I would like to present the latest Ron Paul banner ads:

For a campaign that prides itself on structural excellence which, they claim, provides them with an equivalent capability to take on Obama, they sure did a big stupid with this optic.  You can bet your last dollar Team Obama was smiling with glee and the endless possibilities Romney has provided.  Less than 1,000 people?   Seriously…. c’mon, he couldn’t even fill the Red Zone.

(Guardian) Republican frontrunner Mitt Romney‘s much-heralded economic speech flopped Friday, overshadowed by a gaffe over luxury Cadillacs and his choice of an over-ambitious venue, the Detroit Lions’ football field.

Romney opened himself up to derision for choosing a 70,000-seat stadium which attracted just over 1,000 people, many of them school children bussed in to help fill out the crowd, tucked into a corner of the astro-turf pitch. (more…)

Brazil – A metal object of unknown origin fell down on Earth in the Brazilian state of Maranhao. The unusual event caused panic among the local population. The ball-shaped, 30-kilo object about one meter in diameter was found on Feb. 22.

Residents of the village of Riacho dos Pocos were the first to have seen the space ball. Jose Valdir Mendes said that he had heard the strong roaring sound on Wednesday morning, at about 06:00 local time. Several moments later, an explosion occurred near his home. The man got frightened and ordered his wife not to go out. However, the man was very curious to see what was happening outside, so he went out. He found the strange object in his garden, MR Noticias reports. (more…)

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE on earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †

Will President Obama do something about high gas prices? No, argued Deputy White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest today.   Earnest insisted that there was no “short term solution” for cheaper gas, other than the president’s payroll tax cut and refused to discuss releasing oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserves.

“If there was a magic wand you could wave, one of the presidents would have waved it,” said Earnest arguing that high gas prices were not a new problem.  “Anyone who says that they can wave a wand or plant the magic beans to lead to a reduction in oil prices is just not telling the truth,” he added.

This is a big development in the potential defeat of Syria’s Assad.   Hamas and Assad have been strategic allies and friends in ideology for a long time.   Hamas even hid their terrorists inside Syria with the help of Assad and has been aided with multiple arms shipments for years.   For Syria to publically back the revolt against Assad puts further credibility to the concern that al-qaeda elements, and radical islamists are at the heart of the uprising, or at the very least taking significant advantage of it.

CAIRO/GAZA, Feb 24 (Reuters) – Leaders of the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas turned publicly against their long-time ally President Bashar al-Assad of Syria on Friday, endorsing the revolt aimed at overthrowing his dynastic rule.

The policy shift deprives Assad of one of his few remaining Sunni Muslim supporters in the Arab world and deepens his international isolation. It was announced in Hamas speeches at Friday prayers inCairo and a rally in the Gaza Strip.

Hamas went public after nearly a year of equivocating as Assad’s army, largely led by fellow members of the president’s Alawite sect, has crushed mainly Sunni protesters and rebels. (more…)
