Congratulations 10 Buck Friday Winner, Delia Lopez

A donation to Delia Lopez, who’s running  in OR-3, is a vote for fiscal sanity…and uh...just plain sanity:

Delia Lopez is running for congress against Earl Blumenauer. He is the sponsor of HR-3311 to mandate GPS tracking devices on all our vehicles. To track our every mile and know everywhere we go. The pilot program will waste hundreds of millions of dollars at a time when we are already deep in debt and spending too much.

Her campaign website is here.

Her top issues:

• Property Rights and the Environment
  Our environment is one of the most important issues today. Unfortunately the calls for more government regulations ignore the fact that our government has the worst environmental record of all. Read More
• Privacy and the Constitution
  The biggest threat to your privacy is the government. We must drastically limit the ability of government to collect and store data regarding citizens’ personal matters. Read More
• Our Borders and National Sovereignty
  Physically secure our borders and coastlines. We must do whatever it takes to control entry into our country before we undertake complicated immigration reform proposals.

Video:Son of Hamas Mosab Hassan Yousef Rips Ground Zero Mosque

The son of a Hamas founder, and Christian convert Mosab Hassan Yousef  recently avoided an almost certain death sentence, after Obama’s Homeland Security Dept. had scheduled him for deportation back to the West Bank. Last June, suddenly, and without explanation, an immigration judge granted Yousef asylum.

As a former member of  Hamas, he bristles at the thought that the Imam behind Park 51 refuses to acknowledge that the group is a terrorist organization.

“What Bin Laden did on September 11, people are trying to forget…Don’t remind them every day with a stupid project on a graveyard that will open the wound…and pour into it acid!”

Yousef concurs with what other GZ mosque opponents have been saying about the original name for the project, Cordoba House -   it’s a symbol of  conquest, occupation, and aggression.

He calls it a “mosque of division” and appeals to Muslims to reject the project, “let’s not help them!”

Meanwhile…

While I have no idea how many American Muslims oppose the project, mosque organizers are having trouble trouble with one group who will literally not help them build it:

The NY Daily News: They won’t build it! Hardhats vow not to work on controversial mosque near Ground Zero

A growing number of New York construction workers are vowing not to work on the mosque planned near Ground Zero.

“It’s a very touchy thing because they want to do this on sacred ground,” said Dave Kaiser, 38, a blaster who is working to rebuild the World Trade Center site.

“I wouldn’t work there, especially after I found out about what the imam said about U.S. policy being responsible for 9/11,” Kaiser said.

The grass-roots movement is gaining momentum on the Internet. One construction worker created the “Hard Hat Pledge” on his blog and asked others to vow not to work on the project if it stays on Park Place.

“Thousands of people are signing up from all over the country,” said creator Andy Sullivan, a construction worker from Brooklyn. “People who sell glass, steel, lumber, insurance. They are all refusing to do work if they build there.”

Racists!

Atlas Shrugs: Imam Rauf’s Newly Discovered Explosive Audio Tapes

Steve Emerson has unearthed 13 hours of audio tape of Imam Rauf. Emerson and his team of investigators has spent the past four weeks going through the newly found material. Rauf  is a “radical extremist cleric who cloaks himself in sheep’s clothing.”

Among the shocking revelations Emerson’s team will reveal next week — they found Rauf:

Defending wahhabism – a puritanical version of Islam that governs Saudi Arabia

Calling for the elimination of Israel by claiming a one-nation state, meaning no more Jewish State.

Defending Bin Laden’s violence

Demonstrating that there is a lot more to this man than merely a cleric.

The American public now sees the “deception perpetrated by all these Islamic groups that claim they are against violence and terrorism and insist that their rights be respected but in reality are fronts for the Muslim Brotherhood.”

Emerson states there is “definitely fraud involved in the entities that Rauf created in the last decade that are co-mingled.” Emerson took it to the IRS, who said, “you have a case.”

ICE Draft Memo Directs Local Police To Stop Enforcing Immigration Laws

The agency whose mission it is to enforce our immigration laws, is circulating draft memos to local law enforcement officers that direct them to not enforce our immigration laws? Have I got that right?

Why does every day in ObAmerica seem more and more like George Orwell’s1984?

Jessica Vaughan from The Center for Immigration Studies, reports:

ICE’s misleadingly-named Office of State and Local Cooperation (OSLC) has announced the next step in the Obama administration’s efforts to drastically diminish the scope of immigration law enforcement. According to a draft policy document now being circulated among a limited group of stakeholders, ICE chief John Morton intends to prohibit not only his officers, but also local officers with 287(g) immigration authority, from busting illegal aliens who are discovered as a result of traffic violations.

Never mind that local patrol officers around the country routinely come across unlicensed illegal alien drivers in unsafe and/or uninsured vehicles, sometimes transporting vanloads of smuggled and illegally employed aliens with stolen identities. Forget the 9/11 terrorists, the Ft. Dix plotters, the Times Square bomber’s money brokers, and the many other notorious illegal aliens who have driven our streets without fear of encountering local cops or immigration law enforcement. Don’t mention that the Colorado State Patrol has eliminated (knock on wood) alien smuggling-related traffic fatalities by implementing a 287(g) program that removed illegal aliens caught driving unsafely on Colorado highways (see “The 287(g) Program: Protecting Hometowns and Homeland“).

According to the draft document’s cover e-mail from Ann Yom Steel, a political appointee whose mission seems to be to harass and discourage local agencies who want to help ICE and who want ICE to help them, the agency is responding to the “many concerns [of immigration law enforcement critics] related to immigration detainers, including that they could distort the state criminal process or open the window for pretextual, minor criminal charges.” In other words, ICE believes the ethnic advocacy groups who accuse local cops and sheriffs of abusing their authority by trumping up traffic charges on innocent illegal aliens in order to have them deported. Therefore, all illegal aliens who violate traffic laws will get a free pass from ICE, unless they also happen to have committed other “real” crimes. The policy draft says: “Immigration officers shall not issue a detainer unless an LEA [law enforcement agency] has exercised its independent authority to arrest the alien. Immigration officers shall not issue detainers for aliens who have been temporarily detained by the LEA (i.e. roadside or Terry stops) but not arrested,” although the LEA may hold them without a detainer if ICE is coming right away (don’t hold your breath).

Read on for more, including Morton’s already implemented  “catch and release” policy.

As Mark Krikorian notes at The Corner, this comes on the heels of last month’s DHS memo on how to create a de facto amnesty without congressional consent.

And the left wonders why Americans are increasingly suspicious and distrustful of the President.

The following video offering from Carol of No Sheeples Here is a meditation on the inappropriateness of the proposed Ground Zero Mosque, which she calls, an “affront to the searing memory of the worst mass murder in American history”.

It’s mind boggling how the President, and the left are getting this so wrong. They are not going to win over hearts and minds with their strawman arguments. They are not going to win over hearts and minds by calling opponents bigots. This is a gut level no brainer for most people.

That’s why the President truly jumped the shark with his “Great Iftar Mosque Speech”.

Thursday Links: Dem Doom Edition

Oh my, there’s lot’s of fun stuff out there, today, so let’s get started.

I see someone had the good sense to do a screen-cap from the hilarious Video of Chris Matthews Wincing In Pain When Guest Says Dems Could Lose Senate:

The “thrill” is gone.

We’re hearing nothing but bad, bad tidings for Dems:

Drew at AoSHQ: New Official Kos Pollster: Obama Needs To Stay Away From Midterms, Even In Illinois

and

Bush More Popular Than Obama In Potential Swing House Districts?

How awkward. As we’ve been hearing all year, the Dems’ key 2010 election strategy is to run against Bush. As things are shaking out, that strategy is sure to backfire. But House Dems are doubling down…

Human Events opines “Blame Bush” Won’t Work With Voters:

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi sent her poll-battered Democratic troops home for the August recess with talking-points pocket cards headlined “WE CAN’T GO BACK,” urging them to make George W. Bush’s tax cuts the overriding the focus of their campaign attacks on Republicans.

“Republicans are trying to take us back to the same failed Bush economic policies that cost us 8 million jobs,” says one of the talking point’s attack lines which mention Bush’s name repeatedly.
House Republican leaders, on the other hand, sent their members home this month with a “TREAD BOLDLY” campaign strategy paper, with pictures of Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher and Jack Kemp on its cover. It proposes repealing Obamacare, freeing employers from costly, job-killing government regulations and mandates, and cutting business taxes to spur new investment and expansion that will get the Great American Jobs Machine up and running again.

A former Democrat writes in the comments:

Acknowledging he is a fool, lightweight and moron, Obama has recently and repeatedly stated that the economy will not improve in the next two years. Gee, wonder why? Liberals please come forward and identify any President who previously stated his four years will only feature continuing decline. FDR? Nope. Truman? Nah. Clinton? Don’t remember hearing that one. At least Obama is now honest about his failure. He is begging us to throw him and the Democrats out of office. Let’s do the right thing in November and take the steering wheel back from the children !

Meanwhile, Karl Rove in The WSJ is trying to figure out what the hell Harry Reid is up to: Deconstructing Harry Reid.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid can say the darndest things. He certainly did last week when he proclaimed: “I don’t know how anyone of Hispanic heritage could be a Republican.” That must have thrilled his son, Rory, who’s trailing a Hispanic Republican, Judge Brian Sandoval, in the Nevada governor’s race by 16 points in the most recent Mason-Dixon poll.

Mr. Reid can also do inexplicable things, such as tentatively schedule a floor debate in September on extending the 2001 and 2003 tax cuts that expire on Jan. 1.

There are many ways this debate can hurt Democrats in November’s election, such as deepening their image as tax-and-spend liberals. There are only a few ways it could help, such as if they agreed with Republicans to keep the Bush tax cuts in place. Rightly sensing trouble and trying to protect vulnerable House Democrats from yet another unpopular vote, Speaker Nancy Pelosi declared that her chamber would take up the issue only if the Senate passed a bill first.

What else? Well…….

Thomas Lifson at American Thinker: Growing number of Americans believe Obama a Muslim

There is a lot of media handwringing this morning over a poll indicating 18 percent of the American public (up from 11 percent in March, 2009) believe President Obama is a Muslim.

Everybody should know that Obama is a devout Christian, right? His 20 years at ( former Muslim)Rev. Wright’s TUCC proves it… (I guess if you consider black liberation theology, Christianity and you believe that Obama was there for any reason other than political expediency).

What nobody on the left will acknowledge is that the systematic cover-up of Obama’s documents — his long form birth certificate, his academic records, his travel records (that curious trip to Pakistan while a college student that nobody in the press is the least bit curious about) — has led to deep skepticism about the biographical narrative ginned up by his campaign.

As J.R. Dunn notes today, a cumulative picture of the president has been built by his actions. His first interview was with an Arab television network, his first major speech was an address to the Muslim world in Cairo.

The most surprising thing about this new poll to me is the finding that only 34% of the American public believe Obama’s a Christian, even though he’s repeatedly talked about his Christian faith. In other words…most Americans think he’s been lying about his faith. That is profound.

I thought I was in the minority, there. I’ve always had him pegged as an atheist with an unseemly affinity toward Islam. My second guess would be Muslim. Last place – Christian. Let’s face it, he makes a very unconvincing Christian, for a number of reasons.

We know he lies through his teeth, constantly. He lied to the Pope’s face (about abortion) when he visited the Vatican. Alinsky radicals lie because ends justify the means. Radical Muslims lie because they’re permitted to lie to non Muslims, (taqiyya). Why would it be any great stretch to think he would lie about his religion?

See also Jack Cashill’s excellent piece: Understanding Obama’s Muslim Roots.

In a critical but overlooked scene in Dreams, when Soetoro asks his wife to meet some of “her own people” at the American oil company where he worked, she snaps at him, “They are not my people.”

Mom raised the young Obama to be wary of the “ugly Americans” in their midst. The only thing exceptional about America, she taught him, was Barry Obama himself.

His education as a Muslim during those formative years was both offset and compounded by his grooming as a secular humanist with a deeply ingrained contempt for his fellow Americans. This was a lesson reinforced at every step of his life and career: third world good, first world bad.

At the end of the day, it really does not matter which element of his education prevailed. As the last few weeks have shown, leftists and Muslims share one great transcendent passion, a contempt for traditional America.

Look to see Obama making appearances in Christian churches in the weeks to come. B.S. meters all across the country will be spinning.

UPDATE:

CNN: TRENDING: White House strikes back at ‘Muslim’ tag

“President Obama is a committed Christian, and his faith is an important part of his daily life,” Deputy White House Communications Director Jen Psaki told CNN. “He prays every day, he seeks a small circle of Christian pastors to give him spiritual advice and counseling, he even receives a daily devotional that he uses each morning. The President’s Christian faith is a part of who he is, but not a part of what the public or the media is focused on everyday.”

Psaki added that “the President’s strong Christian faith is what guides him through the challenges – a recovering economy, bringing troops home from Iraq, putting healthcare and financial reform implementation in place – but he doesn’t wear it on his sleeve.”

Obama’s latest spiritual adviser is another hyper-political liberation theology adherent.

Jim Wallis, according to Discover the Networks:

• Activist preacher and editor of the leftwing Christian magazine Sojourners
• Democratic Party operative
• Apologist for communist atrocities in Cambodia and Vietnam
• Dedicated foe of capitalism
• Contends that Biblical scripture calls for large central government to aid the poor

Doesn’t exactly put anyone’s mind at ease.

St. Louis Dem Congressman’s Office Firebombed, Suspect Released

Weird goings on in St. Louis, where Dem Congressman, Russ Carnahan’s finance office was reportedly firebombed, Tuesday morning:

firebomb fail…compare to this.

STL Today reported

Police have arrested a 50-year-old man in connection with what appears to be a firebombing that caused minor damage at the campaign headquarters of U.S. Rep. Russ Carnahan, D-St. Louis.

Firefighters responded after witnesses called about hearing broken glass and later smelling smoke at the office in the 7000 block of Chippewa Street in south St. Louis…

…The incident took place around 2:20 a.m. Tuesday and is being investigated as an arson by the police department’s bomb and arson squad.

Yesterday, they released the suspect.

STL Today again:

A man taken into custody Tuesday in connection with a firebombing at the campaign office of U.S. Rep. Russ Carnahan has been released. Police said Wednesday that the suspect, 50, whose name was not made public, was let go after the prosecutor’s office took the case “under advisement” for possible charges later. Police can only hold a suspect for up to 24 hours without formal charges. The fire at Carnahan’s campaign headquarters on Chippewa Street began about 2:20 a.m.

Jim Hoft thinks there’s something fishy going on:

My FOX St. Louis said the room that was targeted is Carnahan’s finance office. They would not allow cameras inside, saying there is too much sensitive campaign and financial information on display. They did allow a reporter to look around. There were charred documents, some burned electronic equipment, and the walls and ceiling were gray from smoke damage.

Also, from a source today I heard that a person yesterday said he/she saw people leaving Carnahan’s office with St. Louis Bread Company bags full of papers. When asked if they were with Carnahan, they wouldn’t answer.
Today at 4 PM Russ Carnahan canceled a town hall for veterans scheduled for 7 PM tonight.
Remember, Missouri ACORN is in the same building.

Um, no I didn’t remember that….

Dana Loesch has also been following the story, and mentions the above rumor as coming from KMOV Channel 4 reporter Mark Schnyder:

When I went by the building this morning I got a weird vibe.  I saw a campaign worker coming out of the back of the office with big Bread Company to-go bags.  I jokingly said, ”Are you with Bread Company or the Carnahan campaign?”  He said, “Bread Company,” then tossed the bags in the dumpster and went to the front of the building, presumably back in the office.  Weird.

(I talked to a reporter at another station who worked on this story who told me when she was there, she met a campaign worker outside the building who also denied being associated with the campaign.  When she went inside to talk to a spokesperson, she saw that person who denied being with the campaign IN Carnahan’s office.)

Any interesting theories?

Thomas Sowell notes that when people voted for “change”, they assumed it would be positive change. Many are now realizing that they were mistaken: Obama has already brought ‘change’ to America.

Eleven weeks before the Nov. 2 balloting, just 41 percent of those surveyed approve of the president’s performance on the economy, down from 44 percent in April, while 56 percent disapprove. And 61 percent say the economy has gotten worse or stayed the same on Obama’s watch.

Get that approval number down into the 30′s, and then we’ll have something!

Byron York: Mosque supporters beg George W. Bush to come to Obama’s rescue

For the moment, with Obama failing to live up to expectations, Bush-bashing is over. It’s all a little amusing — and perhaps a little maddening — for some members of the Bush circle. When I asked Karl Rove to comment, he responded that it means “redemption is always available for liberals and time causes even the most stubborn of ideologues to revisit mistaken judgments.” But won’t these Bush critics shortly return to criticizing Bush? “This Bush swoon by selected members of the left commentariat is temporary,” Rove answered. “Their swamp fevers will return momentarily.”

Bush himself has declined to comment on the mosque affair.

Don’t do it, W!

Update:

So far so good….

TPM asked a Bush spokesman if he would weigh in, today, and got a simple, “President Bush has no comment”.

Assistants for Karen Hughes and Condoleezza Rice declined to comment. We’ve also requested interviews with several other prominent Bush administration aides, including Colin Powell and James Glassman.

Via Weasel Zippers, The New York Times thinks this is just awesome: A Welfare Check and a Voting Card:

In April, however, President Obama’s Justice Department sent the states a set of guidelines making it clear that it expected full compliance with the public-assistance office section of the law — the first time in the 15-year history of the motor-voter law that the Justice Department has explained what kinds of offices are covered and what procedures are to be used. The guidelines make it clear that people applying for benefits must not only be offered the chance to register but must be given help in filling out the forms if they ask. If states do not comply voluntarily, lawsuits are likely to follow.

Here’s the awesomest part:

But the best reason to applaud the Justice Department’s new posture is that it will bring more voters into public life. When advocacy groups sued Ohio and Missouri to force their public assistance offices into complying, huge groups of new voters surged onto the rolls — more than 100,000 in Ohio, and more than 200,000 in Missouri.

Meanwhile: J. Christian Adams reports at PJ Media: At DOJ, Military Voting Rights Hang in the Balance

Twelve states want waivers from having to send ballots to overseas military on time. Call the Pentagon and the DOJ today, and demand they say no.

***

We have reason to worry. Unbelievably, the DOJ earlier this year proffered the outlandish argument that once a waiver was granted for 2010, it would continue to apply for future elections, including the 2012 presidential election. This incorrect and equivocal reading of MOVE was conveyed to multiple people, including state election officials. It demonstrates a timid mindset dangerous to military voting rights.

The DOJ would never adopt such an equivocal approach to protecting the voting rights of a racial minority.

No wonder Senator John Cornyn made it clear to DOJ officials this won’t be tolerated anymore. After the senator’s scolding, the DOJ jettisoned the permanent waiver argument.

But Senator Cornyn is still on guard. He has put a hold on the Senate nomination for the number two man at the DOJ, James Cole. Cornyn placed the hold on the deputy attorney general nominee after learning from meeting minutes that a Voting Section official made remarks to state election officials encouraging waivers, and telegraphing an aversion to suing states for violating MOVE.

Oh noes! Tea party violence????

Nancy Pelosi Calls For Investigation Of GZ Mosque….

……opponents.

You read that right. She’s calling for an investigation of those who are protesting building the Ground Zero Mosque. San Fran Nan doesn’t think she’s already despised enough. She’s wants to push the envelope.

Kerry Picket at The Washington Times has the story:

She told San Francisco’s KCBS radio

“There is no question there is a concerted effort to make this a political issue by some. And I join those who have called for looking into how is this opposition to the mosque being funded,” she said. “How is this being ginned up that here we are talking about Treasure Island, something we’ve been working on for decades, something of great interest to our community as we go forward to an election about the future of our country and two of the first three questions are about a zoning issue in New York City.” (h/t Kristinn)

Calls to investigate the funding for those proposing the $100 million “Cordoba House” have fallen on deaf ears, though, as New York’s Mayor Mike Bloomberg has described such an investigation as “un-American.”

You can listen to the audio of the interview, here.

I’m speechless.

UPDATE:

Audio via Breitbart TV:

MORE:

Recall how last week, the President attacked Americans For Prosperity by name:

What the hell are they up to?

UPDATE!:

In case you were wondering what “The Treasure Island” deal Pelosi referred to  is all about, Michelle Malkin has the goods, and, needless to say, since it involves Pelosi, it ain’t good: Pelosi and the Treasure Island land grab.

Pelosi has used her power to push the crony-infested project for years. She pushed aggressively for legislative language that would have forced the military to fork over high-value property at no cost to local communities. And as the Washington Times recounted last fall, she presided over a “den of corruption” to secure the coveted property.

I like Doug Powers’ take:

Strange… Pelosi isn’t concerned in the least with how a guy who was a restaurant waiter just a few years ago and rented apartments on commission since came up with $4.8 million to buy the lot for the mosque — but many 9/11 families who are organizing a protest of the location of the mosque are highly suspect in the Botox-addled mind of Nancy Pelosi.
