Now that we have had our fanny perpendiculars handed to us, what’s the plan blackman? Do we have a counter strategic strike?
When Obama initially won The White House, white America immediately prepared a counter strategy and today they have kicked our collective fanny perpendiculars but however bloodied, beaten and defeated we are or feel we still have a black president and his entire family trapped behind political enemy lines and let’s leave no man behind. So, what’s the plan blackman?

Ofcourse, it is original home of the the Assassins, those Medievalhashish smoking Muslims who killed Christians during the Crusades. Andsince we are in the midst of the neo-Crusades, including the Jewishoccupation of Palestine, the US occupation of Iraq, Afghanistan andPakistan, we should look f

The Politics of War
and Tricknology
Isn'tit absolutely amazing we are in three wars: Iraq, Afghanistan andPakistan, yet the elected politicians, the media magicians, the left,are in total silence about the wars, blood and bones on both sides, thebillions missing from reconstruction funds in Iraq and Afghanistan.Surely such terror and looting should be the subject of politicaldiscussion. But the Americans are such deaf, dumb and blind dupes
Finding a suitable renter to put property on rent is big issue. It is very difficult to find good renter on whom you can trust and put your property on rent.

They have ideas regarding their background and financial status. They will accordingly put your properties on rent to the suitable person.

Dear Gen. Williams*,
The flurry of emails, I have so far seen, have maintained the pace and heat of the discussions that were initiated and aired during our Johannesburg meeting of early January this year. This is enormously encouraging, because the free exchange of views is crucial to the identification and elaboration of a platform for ideas which could eventually feed into the 8th Congress.

The Juan Williams incident and the rhetoric of Bill O'Reilly that caused Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar to walkoff the set of The View, fan the flames of an unbroken theme in history where no other "belief" has arguably been as unifying yet divisive, peaceful yet violent as religion.
Although the proposed Mosque at Ground Zero is widening the gap of intolerance between some Christians and Muslims, the tragedy of 9-11 (which involved extremist Muslims) is no more a window into Is

Earlier this week I received a phone call from a good friend and he relayed the following story from a liberal, Democratic friend of his in California.
She is a retired worker with a college degree and worked for many years in the court system. She wanted to get back in the work force on a part-time basis and had several interviews. She had all the necessary skills except one---she didn’t speak Spanish! Therefore, she didn’t get any of the jobs she sought.

Am I the only one who has noticed the media’s total irresponsible coverage of the Rutgers’ college student who committed suicide when he became aware that his roommate streamed his gay sexual encounter on the internet? I think, therefore, I am not.
Supposedly, the student jumped off the George Washington Bridge after his roommate broadcast his gay sexual encounter live on the internet. The media portrayed his death as a cause célèbre as to how “gay” bullying has led
