How to Destroy America - In Eight Easy Lessons

Another excellent email that I received that needs to be read by all Americans.  One of these days, I'm going to learn how to move these things so they won't be so narrow - but not now, I'm too busy with my jewelry...do go check out my website, Lindasudimack.artfire.com, and if you see something that you have to have, call me because I can do better on the price...we are moving, once we sell our house, and I don't want to move finished jewelry.


Remember, the man who wrote this was a fairly liberal person - not a flaming conservative(like me)...and he is concerned about the fate of our great nation, as am I.

 

 

Wherever you stand on this issue, please take the time to read this; it should wake you from your slumber on this important truth.
       
We know Dick Lamm as the former Governor of Colorado. In that context his thoughts are particularly poignant.

Last week there was an immigration overpopulation conference in Washington, D.C., filled to capacity with many of America's finest minds and leaders. A brilliant college professor by the name of Victor Davis Hansen talked about his latest book, "Mexifornia", explaining how immigration - both legal and illegal was destroying the entire state of California. He said it would march across the country until it destroyed all vestiges of The American Dream.
       
Moments later, former Colorado Governor Richard D. Lamm stood up and gave a stunning speech on how to destroy America.
       
The audience sat spellbound as he described eight methods for the destruction of the United States. He said, "If you believe that America is too smug, too self-satisfied, too rich, then let's destroy America. It is not that hard to do. No nation in history has survived the ravages of time. Arnold Toynbee observed that all great civilizations rise and fall and that ‘An autopsy of history would show that all great nations commit suicide.’”
              
"Here is how they do it," Lamm said.
        
"First, to destroy America, turn America into a bilingual or multi-lingual and bicultural country. History shows that no nation can survive the tension, conflict, and antagonism of two or more competing languages and cultures. It is a blessing for an individual to be bilingual; however, it is a curse for a society to be bilingual. The historical scholar, Seymour Lipset, put it this way: ‘The histories of bilingual and bicultural societies that do not assimilate are histories of turmoil, tension, and tragedy.’ Canada, Belgium, Malaysia, and Lebanon all face crises of national existence in which minorities press for autonomy, if not independence. Pakistan and Cyprus have divided. Nigeria suppressed an ethnic rebellion. France faces difficulties with Basques, Bretons, Corsicans and Muslims."
       
        Lamm went on:
       
"Second, to destroy America, invent 'multiculturalism' and encourage immigrants to maintain their culture. Make it an article of belief that all cultures are equal; that there are no cultural differences. Make it an article of faith that the Black and Hispanic dropout rates are due solely to prejudice and discrimination by the majority. Every other explanation is out of bounds."
       
"Third, we could make the United States an 'Hispanic Quebec' without much effort. The key is to celebrate diversity rather than unity. As Benjamin Schwarz said in the Atlantic Monthly recently: 'The apparent success of our own multi-ethnic and multicultural experiment might have been achieved not by tolerance, but by hegemony. Without the dominance that once dictated ethnocentricity and what it meant to be an American, we are left with only tolerance and pluralism to hold us together.' Lamm said, "I would encourage all immigrants to keep their own language and culture. I would replace the melting pot metaphor with the salad bowl metaphor. It is important to ensure that we have various cultural subgroups living in America enforcing their differences rather than as Americans, emphasizing their similarities."
        
"Fourth, I would make our fastest growing demographic group the least educated. I would add a second underclass, unassimilated, undereducated, and antagonistic to our population. I would have this second underclass have a 50% dropout rate from high school."
        
"My fifth point for destroying America would be to get big foundations and business to give these efforts lots of money. I would invest in ethnic identity, and I would establish the cult of 'Victimology.' I would get all minorities to think that their lack of success was the fault of the majority. I would start a grievance industry blaming all minority failure on the majority placation."
       
"My sixth plan for America's downfall would include dual citizenship, and promote divided loyalties. I would celebrate diversity over unity. I would stress differences rather than similarities. Diverse people worldwide are mostly engaged in hating each other - that is, when they are not killing each other. A diverse, peaceful, or stable society is against most historical precedent. People undervalue the unity it takes to keep a nation together. Look at the ancient Greeks. The Greeks believed that they belonged to the same race; they possessed a common language and literature; and they worshipped the same gods. All Greece took part in the Olympic games. A common enemy, Persia, threatened their liberty. Yet all these bonds were not strong enough to overcome two factors: local patriotism and geographical conditions that nurtured political divisions. Greece fell. "E. Pluribus Unum" -- From many, one. In that historical reality, if we put the emphasis on the 'pluribus' instead of the 'Unum,' we will "Balkanize" America as surely as Kosovo.
       
"Next to last, I would place all subjects off limits. Make it taboo to talk about anything against the cult of 'diversity.' I would find a word similar to 'heretic' in the 16th century - that stopped discussion and paralyzed thinking. Words like 'racist' or 'xenophobe' halt discussion and debate. Having made America a bi-lingual/bi-cultural country, having established multi-culturalism, having the large foundations fund the doctrine of 'Victimology,' I would next make it impossible to enforce our immigration laws. I would develop a mantra: That because immigration has been good for America, it must always be good. I would make every individual immigrant symmetric and ignore the cumulative impact of millions of them."
       
In the last minute of his speech, Governor Lamm wiped his brow. Profound silence followed. Finally he said, "Lastly, I would censor Victor Davis Hanson's book 'Mexifornia.' His book is dangerous. It exposes the plan to destroy America. If you feel America deserves to be destroyed, don't read that book."
        
There was no applause. A chilling fear quietly rose like an ominous cloud above every attendee at the conference. Every American in that room knew that everything Lamm enumerated was proceeding methodically, quietly, darkly, yet pervasively across the United States today. Discussion is being suppressed. Over 100 languages are ripping the foundation of our educational system and national cohesiveness. Even barbaric cultures that practice female genital mutilation are growing as we celebrate 'diversity.' American jobs are vanishing into the Third World as corporations create a Third World in America. Take note of California and other states. To date, ten million illegal aliens and growing fast. It is reminiscent of George Orwell's book "1984." In that story, three slogans are engraved in the Ministry of Truth building: "War is peace," "Freedom is slavery," and "Ignorance is strength."
       
Governor Lamm walked back to his seat. It dawned on everyone at the conference that our nation, and the future of this great democracy, is deeply in trouble and worsening fast. If we don't get this immigration monster stopped within three years, it will rage like a California wildfire and destroy everything in its path, especially The American Dream.
      
If you care for and love our country as I do, take the time to pass this on just as I did for you. NOTHING is going to happen if you don't!

BEST SUMMATION OF BARACK AND MICHELLE EVER!

Another great article that was sent to me - don't for get ... the holidays are fast approaching and I have a great sale going on my website - everything is 20% off - there are some great deals there for everyone on your list. I will gift wrap and ship to another address if that is what you need.

A Black Reporter Summarizes Barack The below summarization of Barack and Michelle Obama’s 5 year reign in the White House is by far the best I’ve ever read as it squarely hits the nail on the head. And it took a black reporter writing it to make it as effective as it is. A white man’s account would be instantly criticized by the liberal media as pure racism. But, how can anyone scream Racist when an exacting description of the Obamas is penned by a well known journalist of color?

 BEST SUMMATION OF BARACK AND MICHELLE EVER! Mychal Massie is a respected writer and talk show host in Los Angeles.

 The other evening on my twitter, a person asked me why I didn't like the Obama's? Specifically I was asked: "I have to ask, why do you hate the Obama's? It seems personal, not policy related. You even dissed (disrespect) their Christmas family picture." The truth is I do not like the Obamas, what they represent, their ideology, and I certainly do not like his policies and legislation. I've made no secret of my contempt for the Obamas. As I responded to the person who asked me the aforementioned question, I don't like them because they are committed to the fundamental change of my/our country into what can only be regarded as a Communist state.

 I don't hate them per definition, but I condemn them because they are the worst kind of racialists, they are elitist Leninists with contempt for traditional America. They display disrespect for the sanctity of the office he holds, and for those who are willing to admit same, Michelle Obama's raw contempt for white America is transpicuous. I don't like them because they comport themselves as emperor and empress. I expect, no I demand respect, for the Office of President and a love of our country and her citizenry from the leader entrusted with the governance of same. President and Mrs. Reagan displayed an unparalleled love for the country and her people. The Reagan's made Americans feel good about themselves and about what we could accomplish. Obama's arrogance by appointing 32 leftist czars and constantly bypassing congress is impeachable. Eric Holder is probably the MOST incompetent and arrogant DOJ head to ever hold the job. Could you envision President Reagan instructing his Justice Department to act like jack-booted thugs?

 Presidents are politicians and all politicians are known and pretty much expected to manipulate the truth, if not outright lie, but even using that low standard, the Obama's have taken lies, dishonesty, deceit, mendacity, subterfuge and obfuscation to new depths. They are verbally abusive to the citizenry, and they display an animus for civility. I do not like them, because they both display bigotry overtly, as in the case of Harvard Professor Louis Gates, when he accused the Cambridge Police of acting stupidly, and her code speak pursuant to not being able to be proud of America. I view that statement and that mindset as an insult to those who died to provide a country where a Kenyan, his illegal alien relatives, and his alleged progeny, could come and not only live freely, but rise to the highest, most powerful, position in the world.

 Michelle Obama is free to hate and disparage whites because Americans of every description paid with their blood to ensure her right to do same. I have a saying, that "the only reason a person hides things, is because they have something to hide." No president in history has spent millions of dollars to keep his records and his past sealed. And what the two of them have shared has been proved to be lies. He lied about when and how they met, he lied about his mother's death and problems with insurance, Michelle lied to a crowd pursuant to nearly $500,000 bank stocks they inherited from his family. He has lied about his father's military service, about the civil rights movement, ad nausea. He lied to the world about the Supreme Court in a State of the Union address. He berated and publicly insulted a sitting Congressman. He has surrounded himself with the most rabidly, radical, socialist academicians today. He opposed rulings that protected women and children that even Planned Parenthood did not seek to support. He is openly hostile to business and aggressively hostile to Israel.

 His wife treats being the First Lady as her personal American Express Black Card (arguably the most prestigious credit card in the world). I condemn them because, as people are suffering, losing their homes, their jobs, their retirements, he and his family are arrogantly showing off their life of entitlement - as he goes about creating and fomenting class warfare. I don't like them, and I neither apologize nor retreat from my public condemnation of them and of his policies. We should condemn them for the disrespect they show our people, for his willful and unconstitutional actions pursuant to obeying the Constitutional parameters he is bound by, and his willful disregard for Congressional authority. Dislike for them has nothing to do with the color of their skin; it has everything to do with their behavior, attitudes, and policies. And I have open scorn for their constantly playing the race card. I could go on, but let me conclude with this. I condemn in the strongest possible terms the media for refusing to investigate them, as they did President Bush and President Clinton, and for refusing to label them for what they truly are. There is no scenario known to man, whereby a white president and his wife could ignore laws, flaunt their position, and lord over the people, as these two are permitted out of fear for their color. As I wrote in a syndicated column titled, "Nero In The White House" - "Never in my life, inside or outside of politics, have I witnessed such dishonesty in a political leader. He is the most mendacious political figure I have ever witnessed. Even by the low standards of his presidential predecessors, his narcissistic, contumacious arrogance is unequalled. Using Obama as the bar, Nero would have to be elevated to sainthood..

. Many in America wanted to be proud when the first person of color was elected president, but instead, they have been witness to a congenital liar, a woman who has been ashamed of America her entire life, failed policies, intimidation, and a commonality hitherto not witnessed in political leaders. He and his wife view their life at our expense as an entitlement - while America's people go homeless, hungry and unemployed."

Obama - The Architect of Destruction

Another excellent article that I received from a friend that needs to be read by everyone.  Barack Obama does not like America and it is visible in everything that he does... and how he does it.  From baricading our heroic veterans out of the mall ...  to allowing the illegal aliens in ... his hatred of  our great country is evident in all of his actions.  I only hope that our great republic is strong enough to withstand this onslaught.

Barack Obama by Maureen Scott

It doesn't matter what side of the aisle you lean to because if you love our country this should make you mad.

This woman has totally nailed it!!  She must have been a shrink in another life.  Still, amazing it's taken this long for folks to see what should have been so painfully obvious at least five years ago!

There are some gifted people who have the ability to put into words that which most of us are thinking. Maureen Scott is an ardent American patriot who was born in Pittsburgh, PA, and retired to Richmond, VA, in 2000. Free from the nine-to-five grind of writing for employers and clients, she began writing political commentary to please herself and express her convictions.

The Architect of Destruction

By Maureen Scott 

Barack Obama appears to be a tormented man filled with resentment, anger, and disdain for anyone of an opinion or view other than his. He acts in the most hateful, spiteful, malevolent, vindictive ways in order to manipulate and maintain power and control over others. Perhaps, because, as a child, he grew up harboring an abiding bitterness toward the U.S. that was instilled in him by his family and mentors…it seems to have never left him.

It is not the color of his skin that is a problem in America .Rather it is the blackness that fills his soul and the hollowness in his heart where there should be abiding pride and love for this country.

Think: Have we ever heard Obama speak lovingly of the U.S. or its people, with deep appreciation and genuine respect for our history, our customs, our sufferings and our blessings? Has he ever revealed that, like most patriotic Americans, hegets "goose bumps" when a band plays "The Star Spangled Banner," or sheds a tear when he hears a beautiful rendition of " America the Beautiful?" Does his heart burst with pride when millions of American flags wave on a National holiday -

or someone plays "taps" on a trumpet?

Has he ever shared the admiration of the military, as we as lovers of those who keep us free, feel when soldiers march by? It is doubtful because Obama did not grow up sharing our experiences or our values. He did not sit at the knee of a Grandfather or Uncle who showed us

his medals and told us about the bravery of his fellow troops as they tramped through foreign lands to keep us free.

He didn't have grandparents who told stories of suffering and then coming to America , penniless, and the opportunities they had for building a business and life for their children.

Away from this country as a young child, Obama didn't delight in being part of America and its greatness. He wasn't singing our patriotic songs in kindergarten, or standing on the roadside for a holiday parade and eating a hot dog, or lighting sparklers around a campfire on July 4th as fireworks exploded over head, or placing flags on the grave sites of fallen and beloved American heroes.

Rather he was separated from all of these experiences and doesn't really understand us and what it means to be an American. He is void of the basic emotions that most feel regarding this country and insensitive to the instinctive pride we have in our national heritage. His opinions were formed by those who either envied us or wanted him to devalue the United States and the traditions and patriotism that unites us. 

He has never given a speech that is filled with calm, reassuring, complimentary, heartfelt statements about all the people in the U.S. Or one that inspires us to be better and grateful and proud that in a short time our country became aleader, and a protector of many.

Quite the contrary, his speeches always degenerate into mocking, ridiculing tirades as he faults our achievements aswell as any critics or opposition for the sake of a laugh, or to bolster his ego.

He uses his Office to threaten and create fear while demeaning and degrading any American who opposes his policies and actions. A secure leader, who has noble self-esteem and not false confidence, refrains from showing such dread of critics and displaying a cocky, haughty attitude.

Mostly, his time seems to be spent causing dissension, unrest, and anxiety among the people of America , rather than uniting us (even though he was presented to us as the "Great Uniter").

He creates chaos for the sake of keeping people separated, envious, aggrieved and ready to argue. Under his leadership Americans have been kept on edge, rather than in a state of comfort and security. He incites people to be aggressive toward, and disrespectful of, those of differing opinions.

And through such behavior, Obama has lowered the standards for self-control and mature restraint to the level of street-fighting gangs, when he should be raising the bar for people to strive toward becoming more considerate, tolerant, self-disciplined, self-sustaining, and self-assured.

Not a day goes by that he is not attempting to defy our laws, remove our rights, over-ride established procedures, install controversial appointees, enact divisive mandates, and assert a dictatorial form of power.

· Never has there been a leader of this great land who used such tactics to harm and hurt the people and this country.

· Never have we had a President who spoke with a caustic, evil tongue against the citizenry rather than present himself as a soothing, calming and trustworthy force.

· Never, in this country, have we experienced how much stress one man can cause a nation of people - on a daily basis!

Obama has promoted the degeneration of peace, civility, and quality of cooperation between us. He thrives on tearing us down, rather than building us up. He is the Architect of the decline of America , and the epitome of a Demagogue.

Why Retirement was Invented

As I slowly finished my day the other day - I realized how little that I had gotten done during the whole day...it was really depressing.  I can remember when I had 3 rug rats and  a couple of  dogs underfoot and I still managed to do several loads of laundry...fix meals...keep the house up ( notice, I didn't say "clean")...do all the bookkeeping for the house and a busy dental office...and have enough energy at the end of the day to do something fun.  Today I'm lucky if I can find my bed at the end of the day after doing very little.

One hundred years ago - people didn't retire, they  usually died before they had reached a retirement age.  We were a much more agrarian society, and no matter how old you were - if you were on a farm, you worked.  Even in the thirties when FDR invented social security, our life expectancy was considerably lower than it is today, and not that big a percentage of the population was around to collect...and if they did collect, it wasn't for a long period of time.

Today, we are living longer and supposedly, enjoying it more.  I'm not sure that I agree totally with that statement, but I'm trying to.  This month has been an example of how you don't want to spend your retirement.  We're into the third week here - so there have been about 15 working days this month...we were out of town for three days and I think I've had doctors' appointments on the other 12, or close to it.  I've been to the heart clinic for appointments twice. Had blood taken three times.  I've had two appointments with my G.P.. I've had two dental appointments and an appointment with an endodontist and got the scintillating news that I need a root canal...OH HAPPY DAY! ! ! The days that I didn't have an appointment, my husband did.  This is no way to spend those golden years - I don't even have time to make my jewelry that I love and sell at my online  shop.  This isn't fun - it's work.

I turned 70 this month - so not only am I not having fun, I'm feeling very old. Do you remember when you were a kid and how old 30 - 40 - 50 sounded?  Well, even as a dues paying real  adult, I thought that 70 was old.  And dear God....I am now there.  It is a scary thought. I'm hoping that things pick up soon and we can stay away from the doctor for a few months.  I'm also hoping that life becomes fun again - not just one medical problem, appointment, crisis etc. etc.after another.  I had a friend who used to say that after 50 it was patch, patch , patch....well, right now I'd like to replace the whole shebang rather than doing any more of this damn ( pardon me) patching.

Okay - back to my title - why they invented retirement. No gainfully employed person could have the number of appointments that I've had in the last three weeks and maintain their job. Secondly, no one's production could have dropped  as much as mine has and kept a job. "They" had to invent something so that seniors wouldn't get too depressed...and retirement was it.  It's okay if all you got done today was one load of clothes and a visit to the dentist -  such a minuscule accomplishment  is acceptable because you're retired. So I really think that they invented retirement as a face saving gesture for the older generation  -  can't do that any more???? That's okay, you're retired.

Islam in a Nutshell

I received this in an email today from a neighbor and friend.  I have been wanting to  write a blog about the threat of the Islamic religion to our way of life for a long time and could not decide how to do it without sounding like a total kook, then I received this and really like the numeric approach, and decided that sounding like a kook is less important than getting this message out.





 Islam in a nutshell
 If you do not understand Muslims, please read the following.

 This, not the Chinese or the Russians represent the greatest threat to
 the world and might be the fulfillment of the book of Revelation in
the Holy Bible.

 Adapted from Dr. Peter Hammond's book: Slavery, Terrorism and Islam:
 The Historical Roots and Contemporary Threat

 Islam is not a religion, nor is it a cult. In its fullest form, it is
 a complete, total, 100% system of life.

 Islam has religious, legal, political, economic, social, and military
 components. The religious component is a beard for all of the other
 components.

 Islamization begins when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to
 agitate for their religious privileges.

 When politically correct, tolerant, and culturally diverse societies
 agree to Muslim demands for their religious privileges, some of the
 other components tend to creep in as well.

 Here's how it works:

 As long as the Muslim population remains around or under 2% in any
 given country, they will be for the most part be regarded as a
 peace-loving minority, and not as a threat to other citizens. This is
 the case in:

 United States -- Muslim 0.6%
 Australia -- Muslim 1.5%
 Canada -- Muslim 1.9%
 China -- Muslim 1.8%
 Italy -- Muslim 1.5%
 Norway -- Muslim 1.8%

 At 2% to 5%, they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities
 and disaffected groups, often with major recruiting from the jails and
 among street gangs. This is happening in:

 Denmark -- Muslim 2%
 Germany -- Muslim 3.7%
 United Kingdom -- Muslim 2.7%
 Spain -- Muslim 4%
 Thailand -- Muslim 4.6%

From 5% on, they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to
 their percentage of the population. For example, they will push for
 the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic standards) food, thereby
 securing food preparation jobs for Muslims. They will increase
 pressure on supermarket chains to feature halal on their shelves --
 along with threats for failure to comply. This is occurring in:

 France -- Muslim 8%
 Philippines -- 5%
 Sweden -- Muslim 5%
 Switzerland -- Muslim 4.3%
 The Netherlands -- Muslim 5.5%
 Trinidad & Tobago -- Muslim 5.8%

 At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow
 them to rule themselves (within their ghettos) under Sharia, the
 Islamic Law.
 The ultimate goal of Islamists is to establish Sharia law over the entire world.

 When Muslims approach 10% of the population, they tend to increase
 lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions.. In Paris
 , we are already seeing car-burnings. Any non-Muslim action offends
 Islam and results in uprisings and threats, such as in Amsterdam ,
 with opposition to Mohammed cartoons and films about Islam. Such
ttensions are seen daily, particularly in Muslim sections in:

 Guyana -- Muslim 10%
 India -- Muslim 13.4%
 Israel -- Muslim 16%
 Kenya -- Muslim 10%
 Russia -- Muslim 15%

 After reaching 20%, nations can expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad
 militia formations, sporadic killings, and the burnings of Christian
 churches and Jewish synagogues, such as in:

 Ethiopia -- Muslim 32.8%

 At 40%, nations experience widespread massacres, chronic terror
 attacks, and ongoing militia warfare, such as in:

 Bosnia -- Muslim 40%
 Chad -- Muslim 53..1%
Lebanon -- Muslim 59.7%

From 60%, nations experience unfettered persecution of non-believers
 of all other religions (including non-conforming Muslims), sporadic
 ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia Law as a weapon, and Jizya,
 the tax placed on infidels, such as in:

 Albania -- Muslim 70%
 Malaysia -- Muslim 60.4%
 Qatar -- Muslim 77.5%
 Sudan -- Muslim 70%

 After 80%, expect daily intimidation and violent jihad, some State-run
 ethnic cleansing, and even some genocide, as these nations drive out
 the infidels, and move toward 100% Muslim, such as has been
 experienced and in some ways is on-going in:

 Bangladesh -- Muslim 83%
 Egypt -- Muslim 90%
 Gaza -- Muslim 98.7%
 Indonesia -- Muslim 86.1%
 Iran -- Muslim 98%
 Iraq -- Muslim 97%
 Jordan -- Muslim 92%
 Morocco -- Muslim 98.7%
 Pakistan -- Muslim 97%
 Palestine -- Muslim 99%
 Syria -- Muslim 90%
 Tajikistan -- Muslim 90%
 Turkey -- Muslim 99.8%
 United Arab Emirates -- Muslim 96%

 100% will usher in the peace of 'Dar-es-Salaam' -- the Islamic House
 of Peace. Here there's supposed to be peace, because everybody is a
 Muslim, the Madrasses are the only schools, and the Koran is the only
 word, such as in:

 Afghanistan -- Muslim 100%
 Saudi Arabia -- Muslim 100%
 Somalia -- Muslim 100%
 Yemen -- Muslim 100%

 Unfortunately, peace is never achieved, as in these 100% states the
 most radical Muslims intimidate and spew hatred, and satisfy their
 blood lust by killing less radical Muslims, for a variety of reasons.

 'Before I was nine, I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was
 me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family
 against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; the tribe
 against the world, and all of us against the infidel. -- Leon Uris,
 'The Haj'

 It is important to understand that in some countries, with well under
 100% Muslim populations, such as France, the minority Muslim
 populations live in ghettos, within which they are 100% Muslim, and
 within which they live by Sharia Law. The national police do not even
 enter these ghettos. There are no national courts, nor schools, nor
 non-Muslim religious facilities. In such situations, Muslims do not
 integrate into the community at large. The children attend madrasses.
 They learn only the Koran. To even associate with an infidel is a
 crime punishable with death. Therefore, in some areas of certain
 nations, Muslim Imams and extremists exercise more power than the
 national average would indicate.

 Today's 1.5 billion Muslims make up 22% of the world's population. But
 their birth rates dwarf the birth rates of Christians, Hindus,
 Buddhists, Jews, and all other believers. Muslims will exceed 50% of
 the world's population by the end of this century.

 Well, boys and girls, today we are letting the fox guard the henhouse.
 The wolves will be herding the sheep!

 Obama appoints two devout Muslims to Homeland Security posts. Doesn't
 this make you feel safer already?

 Obama and Janet Napolitano appoint Arif Alikhan, a devout Muslim, as
 Assistant Secretary for Policy Development.

 DHS Secretary Janet Napolitano swore in Kareem Shora, a devout Muslim
 who was born in Damascus , Syria , as ADC National Executive Director
 as a member of the Homeland Security Advisory Council (HSAC).

 NOTE: Has anyone ever heard a new government official being identified
 as a devout Catholic, a devout Jew or a devout Protestant...? Just
 wondering.

 Devout Muslims being appointed to critical Homeland Security positions?
 Doesn't this make you feel safer already??

 That should make the US ' homeland much safer, huh!!
Was it not "Devout Muslim men" that flew planes into U.S. buildings 10
 years ago?

 Was it not a Devout Muslim who killed 13 at Fort Hood ?

 Also: This is very interesting and we all need to read it from start
 to finish. Maybe this is why our American Muslims are so quiet and not
 speaking out about any atrocities. Can a good Muslim be a good
 American? This question was forwarded to a friend who worked in Saudi
 Arabia for 20 years. The following is his reply:

 Theologically - no . . . Because his allegiance is to Allah, The moon
 God of Arabia

Religiously - no. Because no other religion is accepted by His Allah
 except Islam (Quran, 2:256)(Koran)

Scripturally - no. Because his allegiance is to the five Pillars of
 Islam and the Quran.

 Geographically - no. Because his allegiance is to Mecca , to which he
turns in prayer five times a day.

 Socially - no. Because his allegiance to Islam forbids him to make
 friends with Christians or Jews..

 Politically - no. Because he must submit to the mullahs (spiritual
 leaders), who teach annihilation of Israel and destruction of America
 , the great Satan.
Domestically - no. Because he is instructed to marry four Women and
 beat and scourge his wife when she disobeys him (Quran 4:34)

 Intellectually - no. Because he cannot accept the American
 Constitution since it is based on Biblical principles and he believes
 the Bible to be corrupt.

 Philosophically - no. Because Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran do not
 allow freedom of religion and expression... Democracy and Islam cannot
 co-exist. Every Muslim government is either dictatorial or autocratic.

 Spiritually - no. Because when we declare 'one nation under God,' the
 Christian's God is loving and kind, while Allah is NEVER referred to
 as Heavenly father, nor is he ever called love in The Quran's 99
 excellent names.

 Therefore, after much study and deliberation. ... Perhaps we should be
very suspicious of ALL MUSLIMS in this country. - - - They obviously
 cannot be both 'good' Muslims and good Americans. Call it what you
 wish, it's still the truth. You had better believe it. The more who
 understand this, the better it will be for our country and our future.
 The religious war is bigger than we know or understand.

 Can a Muslim be a good soldier???

 Army Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, opened fire at Ft. Hood and Killed 13. He
 is a good Muslim!!!
Footnote: The Muslims have said they will destroy us from within.
 SO FREEDOM IS NOT FREE.

 THE MARINES WANT THIS TO ROLL ALL OVER THE U.S. - If you are as concerned about this as I am, please send this to your friends.

I'm still making jewelry and sometimes getting it posted on my web site in my  shop. I do seem to get more of my new stuff on my facebook page, Linda Sudimack, artisan...come "like" me and check out my newer stuff.  Losing four months is tough - I probably won't have my website back to where it should be until the snowbirds have gone home and my retail shops aren't yelling for new product...like next summer...
  

The Revenge of the Idiots

Okay - the election is over and I'm very disappointed in the results - but they are what they are, and there's nothing that can be done about it.  We live with it for four long years and hope and pray that our marvelous Republic can survive the onslaught of the socialists and secular progressives that  have taken up residence in Washington.  I feel that I did everything that a poor, 70 year old lady could do to help Romney/Ryan get elected, and obviously, it wasn't enough.

I do not want to listen to the pundits about why it happened but I do have a few short comments to make.  Mitt Romney received less votes than John McCain and I find that so hard to fathom.  The only people that I am angry about after this are the Tea Party "Patriots" and the Fundamentalists that decided that they just couldn't vote for Romney/Ryan.  Anyone who doesn't vote is an idiot in my book - and they will stay in my idiot book forever.  Some of  the Tea Party "Patriots" didn't vote because Romney wasn't conservative enough for them - well, he wasn't conservative enough for me either, but by not voting they put a Muslim and a Socialist, as far as I am concerned, into the White House for a second term. That is inexcusable and they have forfeited all rights to "bitching" forever.

Now, the Fundamentalists...they didn't vote because Romney was a Mormon...Shades of 1960 when JFK ran and people were screaming that the Pope would be running the White House.  Romney is a good and religious person.  He is extremely generous with both his time and his funds in giving to others. He would have made an excellent President and the White House would have had some class again.  I bet we would have a Day of Prayer again.  I bet our President would go to church again and the minister wouldn't " damn" the United States of America.  I doubt if he would have taken the vacations that nobama has on the people's dime.  If the Fundamentalist didn't like him, they can't like nobama any better...and he is really gonna rain on their parade, especially when he gets to appoint people to the Supreme Court.  Again, they belong in the "idiot" book, never to emerge.

If we could have generated the vote numbers that got out for McCain in 2008, we could have won this - I heard the other day that 180,000 votes could have changed this result and there were more than two million votes for McCain in 2008 than for Romney in 2012.  That is disgusting - we may have lost this country, as we know it, forever because of lack of action on the part of people who should have cared the most.  They really do belong in the "Idiot Book of All Time".

Before anyone says, "She's just another racist republican" - Herman Cain was my first choice for the nomination and I honestly think that he got railroaded out of the running by people close to nobama because they were afraid of him and his appeal to the black vote.  But that's another story for another day.

The saddest part of all this is - I can't even hope that Nobama gets impeached over Benghazi because then I'd have to deal with Biden...and he might even be worse than nobama is.  We do have to get to the bottom of the situation there - nobama can not be allowed to lie his way out of this one too.  As people much more famous than I have said - "Nobody died at Watergate" and if the  Benghazi coverup doesn't compare to the Watergate coverup, I don't know what does.  It does compare as a coverup - but the situation is much worse in Libya than it ever was at Watergate, not only didn't people die, but that was a "two bit" robbery - this is murder, the burning and looting of our embassy, and possibly, another fast and furious gun trade...

One of these days, I have to get back to my benign little jewelry blog - PLEASE VISIT MY SHOP  AND BUY SOME JEWELRY - I've been spending way too much time on politics and nothing on  commerce...:)  Have a great day, til next time....
