So obsessed is Mr. Stalin with breasts (though he claims that, at heart, he’s really a vagina man), when I read this story I knew I would have to bring it to his attention.

Police in France are looking for two attractive female thieves who bared their breasts at a man at a cashpoint to distract him before stealing his money.

Are we even allowed to say spade anymore, in Imam Obama’s America?

But I digress. I just want to state for the record, before some hemp-wearing do-gooder accuses me of hypocrisy, that terrorists are bad. All terrorists, whether they stick their butts in the air five times a day for Allah, or whether they stick their butts in the air at the age of 12 for Father O’Flanagan.

Three children suffered minor injuries in a bomb attack seemingly timed to attack police and emergency services in Northern Ireland, officers and a lawmaker said Saturday.

Police said a device exploded close to a school in Lurgan, Co. Armagh, about 22 miles (35km) west of Belfast, injuring two 12-year-old children and a two-year old who were struck by flying debris.

At the time of the blast, police had been evacuating homes in the area following reports of a separate device. Army specialists are checking two other suspicious objects in same area, police said.

Disgusting.

A couple of weeks ago, President Obama didn’t want to comment on the building of a mosque and Islamic center at Ground Zero, because it was a “local issue.”

He was right.

Tonight, he addressed a fast-breaking Ramadan crowd and told him he fully supports the Islamic community building houses of worship wherever needed - including lower Manhattan.

He is right.

In neither case has he broken with the Constitution. However, he has broken with more than 67% of the American public. He has also shown himself to be the pandering slut that the right has long accused him of being. If there’s some niche group he can pander to at the expense of middle class America, he will do so. If there’s some world leader he can bow to, he will do it. If there’s some elite stance he can take that will fly in the face of what’s important to Americans, he will take it. In this case he decided to ingratiate himself to Muslim donors and Muslim businessmen by breaking with his stance on the “local issue.”

Now with the endorsement of the President, Park51/Cordoba Initiative will be unstoppable. Unless someone flies a very low-flying plane into their building.

This shouldn’t come as s shock to anyone with more than two brain cells to rub together:

A third of the experts advising the World Health Organisation about the swine flu pandemic had ties to drugs firms, it has emerged.

Five of the 15 specialists who sat on the emergency committee had received funding from pharmaceutical giants, or were linked to them through their research.

The revelation will prompt speculation that the ‘pandemic’ was wildly overestimated and largely fueled by the drugs industry who stood to benefit from the panic.

At the time of the great “outbreak” I was very much indisposed and not watching much evening news - and I STILL KNEW THAT! My opinion was that swine flu was dreamed up by the drug companies as a way to sell more drugs at a higher cost, due to the rush. While I didn’t think members of the World Health Organization had stocks in the drug companies, I did believe they were being paid heavy kickbacks.

There were a few people just beyond my immediate circle - journalist Rick McGinnis for one - who actually developed swine flu that season. It was no worse than regular flu, which also claims lives every year.

People, we need to learn not to panic over nonsense.

As for the corruption issue, this rips my knitting. All over the world there are cultures *cough* Islam *cough* where vaccinations are verboten on the grounds that whitey is feeding them a line. Scandals like this only add to their belief, which means children are forbidden from getting life-saving vaccines against polio, whooping cough and more.

Oh wait

The Taliban has told victims of Pakistan’s floods to boycott aid from “foreign infidels” as the UN called for $460 million in emergency aid to prevent a rise in the death toll.

Fuck ‘em. We went through this in Indonesia, remember? Our aid workers hit the ground as quick as they could, and were soon kicked out for allegedly spreading Christianity.

Here’s a thought: If Muslim countries donated some of their oil trillions and sent their own people in to clean up the messes, the Infidel thing wouldn’t be a problem. It shouldn’t always be up to the world’s 10 richest countries to clean up the disasters of people who would just as soon see us dead.

I was pretty surprised to read that the Michigan serial stabber arrested in the US was an Israeli. Running around stabbing black people is not really a very Israeli thing to do.

All the headlines read Israeli Arrested! and Israeli Captured! but something didn’t gel. His name? Elias Abuelazam.

He’s an Israeli, alright - an Israeli Arab. But most of the reports left that out. After all, if something evil is to come out of Israel, it must be because of teh jooooooz!

He added that Abuelazam, 33, a legal resident of the United States, was carrying a valid Israeli passport as he prepared to board the Tel Aviv-bound Delta Airlines flight.

Most of the stabbings Abuelazam is suspected of committing occurred in Michigan and a warrant charging him with assault with intent to commit murder was issued in Flint, Michigan, on Thursday.

Or is he just Constitutionally illiterate?

I mean, I’m a Canadian, and not a Constitutional scholar by any stretch, but I have a pretty good grip on the basics.

Like, for example, the First Amendment, which reads in part

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof.

Seems pretty straight forward to me, and I talk about it in the latest In Bed With RightGirl, which you should have already listened to (ahem).

However, the man named after a lizard seems to think that the Establishment Clause is just a suggestion that can be ignored at will.

Newt Gingrich, the Republican former speaker of the House of Representatives, who is thought likely to make a run for president, has warned that Muslims are attempting to impose sharia law in the US and that it poses a “mortal threat to freedom” in America.

Gingrich said that he would push for legislation to prevent states from adopting sharia law even though none are proposing it and there is no likely prospect of it happening.

What, exactly, is the point of that legislation? The Establishment Clause already has that potential problem sewn up and dealt with. No state can adopt Sharia law, because it’s unconstitutional. ‘Nuff said.

Look, I like Newt, and his Contract With America was one of the greatest moments in American politics. But banning sharia at the state or federal level is unnecessary. It’s already banned - as is Christianity, Judaism, Buddhism or any other major religious doctrine.

There are better fights to pick, Newt old chap.

Nine years after September 11th, we’re still in Afghanistan, still trying to make nice with 6th Century barbarians, still trying to win those elusive “hearts and minds”…

Afghanistan’s largest gathering of clerics, who met to discuss reconciliation with the Taliban, has called for the revival of strict Islamic law as the country seeks ways to win militants away from a growing insurgency.

About 350 of the Islamic clerics, or ulema, met for three days this week, the meeting ending with a declaration calling on President Hamid Karzai to enact sharia, or Islamic law, including punishments such as stonings, lashing, amputation and execution.

Wait, what? the growing insurgency, as they call it, IS strict Islam.

We should have gone into Afghanistan with unmanned nuclear drones on September 12th, 2001, and never looked back.

British police charged with beating terror suspect

What the hell else are you supposed to do with them?

Now the officers will be charged and likely lose their jobs, while the terrorist gets shipped off to the US where he’ll eat expensive halal food three times a day and gain 15 lbs.

What a world.

Via Moonbattery comes the news that James Caan is “not a G** damn Hollywood liberal, I’m not!”

The trouble is, of course, that all of these guys in Hollywood (and most of them are guys) are ancient and have nothing left to lose. You don’t see the cast of Twilight coming out and telling us they voted McCain. You don’t hear young directors and actors tell us they watch Fox News* exclusively or support Prop 8. Of course not - these people have years to go before they retire, and they want to keep working among Hollywood’s perverts and degenerates.

*Watching Fox News doesn’t necessarily mean you’re a conservative. You may just be a stress junkie - I know it raises my blood pressure.

Like those studies that show a significant difference in IQ and ability to learn between the races, sometimes the truth hurts the politically correct grievance industry. In this case, the wimmins:

Two thirds of employees agree they would rather work for a man than a woman.

Men are also said to be more straight-talking than women and rarely talk about others behind their backs, it emerged.

Female bosses were accused of being moody and incapable of leaving their personal lives at home.

A third of those polled claimed women in charge are ‘loose cannons’ - ready to stab colleagues in the back at any time, and who constantly feel threatened by other people in positions of authority.

By contrast, both male and female workers believe male bosses were less likely to get involved in office politics, were easier to reason with and rarely suffered from mood swings.

In terms of “leaving their personal lives at home,” we women just aren’t wired for it, whether we are worker drones or bosses. If our homes are chaotic or unhappy, it affects our work. If our kids are sick, we take time off that affects others in our workplace.

In terms of “mood swings,” I had the singular pleasure of working for a 40-year-old career professional who decided at that late stage to try for her first child. My heart broke for her as she suffered through months of hormone shots and failed IVF treatments, but as her employee, I suffered too. Anyone who has someone close to them who has been through the hormone shots will know what that can do to someone’s personality. Unfortunately, a busy corporate office doesn’t leave a lot of room for violent mood swings (this I know from battling my own anxiety disorder), and frankly the turmoil in her personal life was reflected in her work.

There’s a reason that back in the day, women either hunted (cave man days) or stayed home (through the early 20th century). Killing for flesh and child rearing are things we excel at, as part of our genetic makeup.

I don’t highlight these articles as a way of focusing on the negative, but instead to point out that there are things each of us do well - better than others do. Why do we insist on torturing ourselves and those around us by doing things for which we were not designed?

Food allergies are a white middle class suburban construct. No poor kids are allergic to peanut butter and jelly sandwiches - because they are instead allergic to starving to death.

My mother-in-law had my ex convinced he was allergic to dogs (including developing psychosomatic symptoms) because she didn’t want pets. My boyfriend’s niece is allergic to potatoes - another staple food of poor people. The kid is half-Irish, for fuck sake! How can she be allergic to potatoes of all things?

Well, it turns out she may not be, after all.

Only around one in five of people who think they have a food allergy actually do, the draft guidance from Nice said.

Studies have shown that where as up to 17 per cent of people think they are allergic to milk, when challenged with diary products, only three per cent were actually showed symptoms.

Seven per cent said they were allergic to eggs but the real figure was less than two per cent.

More than a third said they were allergic to some form of food but when tested this turned out to be just one in ten.

Nice say that children diagnosed with allergies will then end up being deprived of certain foods - such as dairy products, nuts or wheat - which could lead to dietary problems.

In the end, parents take their own issues with food (Did you grow up bored of PB&J? Your kid must be allergic! Read the Atkins Diet? Your kid is allergic to potatoes!) and spring them on their kids for no good reason, thereby limiting what their children eat. It’s like some kind of food-based Munchhausen By Proxy.

Of course, like previous posts about the Nutzis, this one will draw all kinds of apoplectic comments from people who swear that peanuts are eeeeevil and will kill us all, like some kind of Zombie Jimmy Carter on crack. The funny thing is, my mind’s eye can see these parents swelling up like toads, turning red, foaming and wheezing in their elitist righteousness. In reality, it looks like they’ve choked on an nut.

These two anti-mosque protests are not the same, and shouldn’t be treated the same. I discuss private property and First Amendment rights in a new episode of In Bed With RightGirl.

I wrote last week about how kids aren’t getting out enough, and this article just proves my point.

Young people no longer participate in time-honoured pastimes like conkers, hopscotch and marbles with over half of kids saying their favourite game is the Nintendo Wii.

Nearly three quarters of children aged four to 11 who took part in the study by Persil have never played the playground favourite hopscotch, with ten per cent of kids thinking it was a soft drink.

And 93 per cent of children surveyed said they would never play marbles and half had never even heard of the small glass balls.

In addition, three quarters of kids never play ‘tag’ and 87 per cent have never heard of or played ring-a-ring-a roses.

Even more surprisingly, a quarter of children also said they never make up their own games or invent characters.

An honest 38 per cent of kids said that playing conkers would simply not interest them – with one in ten preferring online games.

Ok, this is a British newspaper, so some of these games aren’t relevant (my ex patiently explained conkers to me when I lived in Scotland), but seriously! Get off the couch you fat little fucks!

Childhood play and imagination is the drive behind adult creativity - whether it is in arts, sciences, technology or beyond. If some kid hadn’t played spaceman when he was young, he may not have grown up to write the science fiction novels that inspired scientists to send a man to the moon.

If a lonely kid never had an imaginary friend, she might not have grown up to write books with rich, developed characters.

Sitting on the couch playing X-box puts kids in the creation of someone else’s imagination, not their own. Like watching television, playing video games makes you zone out. You can’t create or imagine anything if it’s all presented to you in graphic 3-D. Where’s the inspiration in that?

Bobbed Hair and Bathtub Gin: Writers Running Wild in the Twenties by Marion Meade. This is a hilarious and sometimes sad look at the popular female writers of the famed Algonquin Round Table. Dorothy Parker (pictured), Edna St. Vincent Millay (known as Vincent), Edna Ferber and Zelda Fitzgerald - wife of F. Scott Fitzgerald.

Drinking bootleg gin during prohibition, these uninhibited women worked and played hard for their money and fame. What amuses me about the book is the way women were perceived - even by each other - back then. Zelda Fitzgerald, in reference to Dorothy Parker: “Dottie was one of those older professional women, no doubt pushing twenty-five, who continued to wear old-fashioned long hair and Merry Widow hats.” Twenty-five??!

If you are looking for a fascinating glimpse inside the prohibition era and the elite creative force of the Gonk, this book is for you. Suicide attempts, abortions, mad affairs and adultery, crazy mothers, drunk fathers and forgotten children - it has everything.

I’m about halfway through and I can honestly say that this book requires a very dry gin martini to complete the experience.

A Turkish man accused of beating his wife has told a court in New Zealand they were actually performing a traditional dance.

Allaetin Can said witnesses mistook the dance for domestic violence as it involved moves that resemble punches, kicks, slaps and choking.

The dance, named the kolbasti, is thought to have been first performed by drunks in a Black Sea resort town.

The name translates as “caught red-handed by the police”.

Mr Can said he and his wife Elmas were dancing outside his family’s kebab shop in Hawera on New Zealand’s North Island, to celebrate a good day’s takings when a passer-by called the police.

He pleaded not guilty to an assault charge.

“We’re always dancing, I’m happy to dance with my wife and family, but people here understand fighting not dancing,” he told New Zealand media outside the court.

New post over at The Daily Bug about helping newcomers better integrate with our dog-loving Western society. I may think that the cultural aversion to dogs is daft, but at 1.2 billion people worldwide, Islam and dogs is a matter that needs to be dealt with.

Mohammad attempted suicide many times. Here is the hadith which proves it:

Narrated ‘Aisha:

But after a few days Waraqa died and the Divine Inspiration was also paused for a while and the Prophet became so sad as we have heard that he intended several times to throw himself from the tops of high mountains and every time he went up the top of a mountain in order to throw himself down, Gabriel would appear before him and say, “O Muhammad! You are indeed Allah’s Apostle in truth” whereupon his heart would become quiet and he would calm down and would return home. And whenever the period of the coming of the inspiration used to become long, he would do as before, but when he used to reach the top of a mountain, Gabriel would appear before him and say to him what he had said before.(Ibn ‘Abbas said regarding the meaning of:’He it is that Cleaves the daybreak (from the darkness)’(6.96) that Al-Asbah. means the light of the sun during the day and the light of the moon at night).
(Bukhari V9 B87 N111)

Also, Mecca is a shrine to a rock from the moon. Think about that and remember to afford Islam all the respect of Scientology.

Why on earth they would return to the third world of Pakistan is beyond me.

A Birmingham couple have been murdered in Pakistan because of a dispute over a wedding.

Taxi driver Gul Wazir and his wife, named locally as Begum, had reportedly visited the country to resolve the row which is believed to have arisen after a planned marriage between the couple’s daughter and a man in Pakistan fell through.

Neighbour May Sparrow, a pensioner who knew Mr Wazir since he was about 18, paid tribute to him as “a proper Brummie” who idolised his family.

Proper Brummies don’t drag their children to be sold in Pakistan.

I spend a lot of time - an amazing amount of time, really - slagging off our terrorist enemies because of the evils they have perpetrated. I used to go to marches and rallies, and I speak out vociferously on injustices such as the Cordoba House Islamic Center being built down the street from the smoking ruin of September 11th.

But I draw the line at taking that day itself and making it political. I prefer instead to sit vigil from the time I wake to the time I fall asleep, blogging my thoughts and delivering pizzas to the local fire department for lunch. That’s my thing. On the 5th anniversary, I went to the US Consulate in Downtown Toronto and placed flowers. That’s it. No speeches, no politics.

Many Christians balk at the commercialization of Christmas - I balk at the politicization of 9/11.

Which is why I turn green at the thought of Geert Wilders coming to New York to hang out with Newt Gingrich to speechify and denounce the Ground Zero mosque on 9/11.

PVV leader Geert Wilders will go to New York on September 11 to protest against the construction of a mosque on the site where the Twin Towers once stood. Along with prominent U.S. politicians, the PVV leader will give a speech during the protest, as reported by the Dutch newspaper De Telegraaf reports:

“By accepting this invitation Geert Wilders supports the resistance against the construction of a mosque near the place where Islam committed the worst crime in recent years,” the PVV states. “The attack on the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001, was an attack on the entire Western civilization, including the Netherlands.”^[1]

Gross.

I also received an invitation to be part of a Jewish Defense League candlelight vigil here in Toronto on 9/11 in front of the Consulate. However, the purpose of the vigil is to protest the Ground Zero mosque. I won’t be attending. There are 364 other days in the year when we can scream and protest and sign petitions. There is only one September 11. Let’s keep it holy.
