Obama Administration Continues On Path Of Appeasement

Most people these days are distracted, as usual, from the disturbing trends shaping up in Obama's America which are all but ignored by NBC, CBS, ABC, CNN, and most liberal newspapers, but those of us who know where to tune in realize these trends and attempt to make them known to you.  

For instance, I'll bet most people don't know that President Obama made this speech shown above a few days ago and actually made this comical statement...

"These rituals remind us of the principles that we hold in common, and Islam’s role in advancing justice, progress, tolerance, and the dignity of all human beings..." 

...though some recall he made an Easter speech to Europe in which he bashed our own country repeatedly, and then later ignored our National Day Of Prayer.

You might not even be aware that Obama, at the behest of Sen. Schumer, has attempted to turn 9-11, and everything for which it stands, up on its ear by transforming it into a National Day of Service, thereby nullifying what Obama sees as a right-wing-day-of-fear and instead creating a leftist Marx-fest.  As the Left has done with the Holy Bible, after abandoning a movement or issue they claim the other side hijacked (but didn't), they then attempt to trash and upend the movement.  Add national security and fiscal responsibility to the list (the latter of which the right almost abandoned at one time...).

And did you by chance hear that Libya's own Gadhafi is coming to America?  He plans to address the UN Assembly and then literally pitch a tent at a Libyan owned estate in Englewood, NJ, just a few miles from Manhattan, and stay a while.  The State Department has issued no opinion on the matter (I called them an hour ago, and you can too!  See below), nor has Obama that I am aware of.  If he does it might ring every bit as hollow as his outrage over the Pan Am Flight 103 bomber being released back to...Libya, where he arrived to a hero's welcome.

Archbishop Cuts Down Christianity To Please Muslims

You might remember back in February when the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr. Rowan Williams, suggested that Great Britain adopt sharia law to please (appease) the British Muslim population. It caused quite a stir. Shortly after, of course, he modified his statements and apologized for his "unclarity" and clumsy choice of words, and stated that he was only in favor of it "if - and please note that word - this were thought to be a useful direction in which to move."

Well, he made the papers again (Daily Mail), this time stating that Christian doctrine is offensive to Muslims in a conciliatory letter he wrote to Islamic leaders. In the letter he noted the Christian history of "violence, its use of harsh punishments and its betrayal of its peaceful principles." These are all things that Islamic leaders preach about Christianity to their own followers everyday, so they were no doubt pleased to hear this validation from a Christian leader. He went on to say that " faiths which reject the use of violence should learn to defend each other in their mutual interest." Who does this guy think he's writing to?!?

The naivete of this Archbishop knows no bounds. But then that has always been a common element shared by the liberal-minded. Like the Archbishop...and even Barack Hussein Obama, they claim to want to reach out and communicate for the sake of peace with those who publicly state their desire to destroy us. But I suspect it is FEAR which motivates the appeaser, resulting in a self-imposed naivete---> shoving one's head in the sand to avoid seeing the obvious danger signals in front of you, lest you should have to defend yourself.

The Islamic leaders are no doubt thrilled. For they count on appeasers like Williams to buckle in fear at Islamic bullying to the point where the appeaser is willing to compromise his own core beliefs and betray even God with a pluralistic viewpoint just to live on Earth without pain ------>COWARDICE!!!... or as Churchill once said, "...like feeding a crocodile in hopes he eats you last."

It is past time either for this Archbishop to step down, or for the more reasonable and Christ-centered of the Anglican Church to break away from a church which promotes appeasement to Islam and acceptance of homosexual behavior among the "faithful."

Saddam Had 550 Metric Tons Of Yellowcake

The AP is reporting a story that they're treating nonchalantly from top to bottom, but one that I find astounding for all the information we didn't know.

Please allow me to clarify: 550 metric tons of yellowcake, enough to build 142 nuclear weapons.
This material in that quantity was found near Bagdad...in Iraq. It was recently moved secretly to a company in Canada, which purchased the yellowcake for several million dollars. It had been part of Saddam Hussein's nuclear program, you know...the one the MSM told us didn't exist. For it was widely thought that when Israel bombed the Tuwaitha nuclear facility, Hussein's nuclear program ended. Well, he still had all that yellowcake which he had stored in "aging drums" until UN inspectors "safeguarded" it.

Now pardon me for jumping to conclusions here, but doesn't that make the Joe Wilson accusation about no imported yellowcake from Niger in Africa irrelevant? When you have 550 metric tons already in your possession that wasn't destroyed by Israel in a bombing attack, do you really need more of it in order to cause mischief...or an act of revenge??? The AP report takes comfort in pointing out that there was no new yellowcake in Iraq after 1991. Well, the AP can take whatever comfort it can when a plate of crow sits on its dinner table.

President Bush and the rest of us who backed him in this venture can take comfort in the fact that this has indeed been a just war, however lengthy or botched at times.
