Posted at 4:40am on May 21, 2008 Hilarious Demonstrations of Ignorance & Stupidity in Minnesota Muslim School Dust-Up
By daveinboca
HotAir has Ed Morrissey's story on the ridiculous violence a couple of thugs from the Tarik ibn Zayad Academy, with an acronym of "TIZA," inflicted on a visiting TV crew. A dictionary of Syrian Arabic will tell you that "tiza" in street slang is the Arabic word for "c**k" or "pr**k." I checked with a couple of Arab friends of mine living in the Middle East----one of them responded who had actually supervised two Muslim schools in the DC area and he sided with the school's need for privacy!! But this former Ambassador admitted that no Arab School would be stupid enough to ever allow others to use the acronym TIZA. He guessed it was being run by Pakistanis!

Posted at 12:34pm on May 13, 2008 Request For Prayers For Missing Naval Officer In Earthquake Area

Cross-Posted in THE MINORITY REPORT
I received an e-mail from Tommy F.'s parents last night. He and two fellow naval personnel were traveling in China on R&R west of Beijing and he has gone off the radar. Yesterday afternoon, the US Navy contacted his parents who live here in S. Florida & asked if he had contacted them. Up to now, he is still missing and unaccounted for, along with his buddies.

Posted at 10:04pm on Apr. 28, 2008 Obama being swift-boated by his "pastor & mentor."

Even the perpetually day-late, dollar-short fake conservative Andy Sullivan starts having second [actually in Andy's case, it's first] thoughts about the egregious "Pastor & Mentor" whose bigoted racist asides on Israel, the American flag, and the Marine Corps display breathtaking hatred of America and all this country stands for, that's when you know that Obama is being SWIFT-BOATED by an opportunistic showboat on steroids.

Posted at 5:15am on Apr. 25, 2008 Did Bernardine Dohrn Mentor Michelle [Robinson] Obama at Chicago Law Firm?
By daveinboca
The media has been very gentle on Michelle Obama, but one blogger asks a very interesting question about Bernardine Dohrn's possible mentoring of Michelle at Sidley Austin in Chicago, where Dohrn worked as a paralegal [her felony conviction meant she couldn't pass the Illinois bar exam] while Michelle was an intern during summers while in law school. Michelle was later taken into the prestigious firm when she graduated from Harvard Law. Michelle in turn mentored Obama in '89 & they eventually married.

Posted at 4:47am on Apr. 21, 2008 Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed
By daveinboca
I took my 18-year old daughter who is taking several courses in history, philosophy, and political science at the University of Miami to see Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed. She was very impressed [we are cafeteria Catholics] with the argument that suppression of the teaching of ID even as a heuristic device is streng verboten as Dr. Berlinski said. Ben Stein cornered Dr. Dawkins and the arrogant professor simply was unable to answer the "prime mover" argument when after he posited panspermia from advanced civilizations from other planets [which was the Soviet party line for a while], Dawkins was unable to say how the advanced aliens got kick-started. Stein gently kept Dawkins writhing on the hook. All in all, so much better than the apodictic twaddle doled out by Michael Moore, laughable to the extreme on health-care as any Miami Cuban can inform you---and Al Gore, who simply says "the argument is settled" and let the evidence be damned.

Posted at 3:29am on Apr. 15, 2008 Carter Visit Bolsters Hamas Terrorists, Earns Israeli Disdain

Jimmy Carter actually offers to act as an intermediary between Israel & Hamas in his ceaseless quest to become relevant---at best his meddlesome intrusiveness deserves Israeli disdain. Which it is showing him in generous portions.

Posted at 10:07am on Mar. 16, 2008 Hillary & Bill Use Identity Politics, Scandals, and Tricks of Their Trade to Torpedo Obama
By daveinboca
Cross-posted in THE MINORITY REPORT
The Democratic polarity now dividing the party stems from HRC's philandering hubby's South Carolina antics---dragging Obama down from the pedestal which had got Barack his success to date.
Now Barack is having to crawl out of the gutter where Billary has dragged him. Their natural home is a sewer, but a gutter will suffice until something drives them further downward to their natural playing field---Bill and Hillary can't exorcise their crooked ghosts without creating nasty hypothetical alternatives such as Rezko matching Whitewater, etc.

Posted at 2:54pm on Nov. 6, 2007 Anne Applebaum Speaks Truth to and Spanks Delinquents who Visit Hugo
By daveinboca
Cross-posted in THE MINORITY REPORT
Anne Applebaum is a multilingual polymath who wrote Gulag, arguably one of the top five books of the twenty-first century just as Solzhenitsyn's Gulag Archipelago was unarguably one of the most influential books of the twentieth century. The end-product of socialist dictatorships was vividly described in both books with encyclopedic accuracy and horror.

Posted at 3:40am on Nov. 4, 2007 Fred Thompson Smacks Down UN Denial of Right to Self-Defense
By daveinboca
The Volokh Conspiracy lays bare the attacks on Fred Thompson for daring to assert American sovereignty over its own legal system concerning gun ownership and the right to defend oneself when attacked by others.
One-World enemies of the US Constitution such as Kevin Drum defend the UN and insult Thompson for asserting American sovereignty. Drum quotes a paid shill for the UN named Mark Goldberg approvingly. Here's TVC's nutshell:

RINOs everywhere should behold the fate of Sen. John McCain. The few sensible Democrats on this issue are telling the Party symbolized by a jackass that one:
