Mooch: Immigrants Just Like Founding Fathers, Not "Born American"

(Sorry, Mooch.... the vast majority of the Founding Fathers were born in America)

Via Charlie Spiering:

First Lady Mooch Obuma reminded attendees of a naturalization ceremony Wednesday that the Founding Fathers weren't born in America.

The ceremony for 50 new U.S. citizens was held at the National Archives in Washington, D.C.

"It's amazing that just a few feet from here where I'm standing are the signatures of the 56 Founders who put their names on a Declaration that changed the course of history," she said during her speech, referring to the Declaration of Independence. "And like the 50 of you, none of them were born American – they became American."

Obuma pointed out that the Founding Fathers pledged their lives and risked everything to create the United States of America after signing the Declaration of Independence.

Carney: Obuma Was "Paying Close Attention" To Iraq While Golfing

(Yes, that laser-like focus we've heard so much about)

Via Breitbart:

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney explained that President Obuma is fully engaged in the situation in Iraq – even though he spent last weekend golfing.

Carney was asked about former Vice President Dick Cheney's op-ed in The Wall Street Journal criticizing the President for golfing instead of paying attention to world affairs.

"I think it's pretty clear that this President has been paying close attention to this and has been engaging regularly with his national security team," Carney said, praising Obuma for deliberating carefully about the use of force in Iraq.

Michigan: Dearborn Imam Wants To Make Burning The Koran Illegal

DEARBORN — Several Qurans were burned in front of a mosque at about noon Tuesday in possible connection with anti-Islam Pastor Terry Jones' expected visit to the city Saturday.

The three copies of the Quran, Muslims' holy book believed to be the word of God, were set on fire and left to burn at the curb in front of the Karbalaa Islamic Educational Center, 15332 W. Warren Ave.

The imam of the mosque, Sheikh Husham Al-Husainy, confirmed that the incident occurred and that police are investigating.

Al-Husainy said he met with public safety officials Thursday including the FBI and the city's police chief. [...]

Several attorneys also met with the imams at Thursday's meeting. Al-Husainy said they helped with legal advice in his plan for a new law making it illegal to burn or desecrate holy books.

"We want all of the religions to cooperate with us to bring respect to the word of God, whether the Quran, Bible, or Torah," he said.

He said he understands it will be a challenge.

"But again, a journey of 1,000 miles starts with one step," he said.

He and the imams will collect signatures of supporters before addressing the City Council to inquire about making a new city ordinance.

Al-Husainy said it's a duty to protect the divine word. He said he worries that a nation where the words of God are burned in disrespect will not be blessed anymore.

Chicago Council Committee Passes Strict New Gun Shop Ordinances, Sets $3,800 Fee

(Oh, look how smart we are, Chicago!  We've once again made sure that the only people who will possess guns are the 'Chrips and Bloods' criminals, who don't give a damn about the law... its easier and cheaper to open an abortion clinic in Chicago)

Via GUNS
Chicago council members who approved the city's strict new gun shop license program Wednesday call it, "one of the smartest" in the country.

Among the many tenets of the city's draft would include fees of up to $3,800 per shop, waiting periods on purchases, restrictions on location that would put most of Chicago off-limits, and videotaping sales transactions.
"I don't think we want these kinds of things in our communities at all," Ald. Walter Burnett Jr., speaking for many in the council, told DNA-info Chicago.

Others on the City council's Committee on Public Safety praised the proposed regulations, with committee chairman Ald. James Balcer calling the package, "one of the smartest, most cutting-edge licensing laws in the country."

The city had in 2010 practically banned the sale of firearms inside its limits, only to have Federal Judge Edmond E. Chang rule the restrictions unconstitutional this January. Chang then specified that the city have new regulations in place within six months following a request from Mayor Rahm Emanuel.

The 30-page proposal would require bi-yearly fees ranging from $1,100 for a "weapons dealer" who would be cleared to sell stun guns, to $3,800 for firearms dealers. In addition to this, the language of the ordinance would forbid issuing licenses to anyone working from a home, or within 500 feet of a park, school, church, or any building leased to or owned by the city, state, or federal government.

It is believed that this would put some 99.5 percent of the city off-limits to potential gun stores.

While in business, the license holder would be subject to quarterly inspections of their records by the Chicago Police Department, have to submit all employees to a background check by the department, maintain a $1 million liability insurance policy, and comply with a safety plan. All employees would further have to attend mandated training developed by the superintendent of police, with refresher classes conducted every three years.

Firearms sales would have to be videotaped while certain types of ammunition, such as any without a lead core, or in .50BMG-caliber, would be prohibited. In addition to these regulations, there is a mandated waiting period of 72-hours for handguns and a 24-hour period for long arms.

CNN: "Redskins" Could Be The New "N-Word"

(How freakin' dumb... CNN's Sour Lemon, Mister Gay-Guy shooting his mouth off again!)

Via Mediaite:

For his commentary segment on The Tom Joyner Show Thursday, CNN's Don Lemon drew some parallels between the "n-word" and the term "Redskins," which is currently at the center of the debate over Washington, D.C.'s NFL team name.

"An offensive word that many people hate and think should be banned. Others say not so fast, there's nothing wrong with using the word, especially when we're talking about a group of people we hold dear, like, even love," Lemon said Thursday. "Sounds like I'm talking about the 'n-word,' which has been debated, discussed and reported countless times, but I'm not. This time it's the dreaded 'r-word,' Redskins, as in the Washington football team."

Lemon referred to the U.S. Patent Office canceling of the "Redskins" trademark as a "small victory" for those who find the name offensive "because it doesn't mean the team has to relinquish the name; the owner has vowed he wouldn't."

Government Advertised In JANUARY 2014 For "Escorts" For 65,000 Illegal Alien Children To Be "Resettled"

This particular ad ran in FedBizOpps in January ...

with RFI for "Escorts" for 65,000 unaccompanied children.

This is the relevant description:

Procurement Type: Request for Information (RFI)/Sources Sought

Title: Escort Services for Unaccompanied Alien Children

Classification Code: V- Transportation/Travel/Relocation

NAICS code: 561612

Primary POC: Rachel Ali, Contract Specialist/ Rachel.Ali@ice.dhs.gov

Secondary POC: Tony Ross, Contracting Officer/ Tony.Ross@ice.dhs.gov

A. Introduction

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), a component of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), has a continuing and mission critical responsibility for accepting custody of Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) from U.S. Border Patrol and other Federal agencies and transporting these juveniles to Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) shelters located throughout the continental United States. ICE is seeking the services of a responsible vendor that shares the philosophy of treating all UAC with dignity and respect, while adhering to standard operating procedures and policies that allow for an effective, efficient, and incident free transport. The Contractor shall provide unarmed escort staff, including management, supervision, manpower, training, certifications, licenses, drug testing, equipment, and supplies necessary to provide on-demand escort services for non-criminal/non-delinquent unaccompanied alien children ages infant to 17 years of age, seven (7) days a week, 365 days a year. Transport will be required for either category of UAC or individual juveniles, to include both male and female juveniles. There will be approximately 65,000 UAC in total: 25% local ground transport, 25% via ICE charter and 50% via commercial air. Escort services include, but are not limited to, assisting with: transferring physical custody of UAC from DHS to Health and Human Services (HHS) care via ground or air methods of transportation (charter or commercial carrier), property inventory, providing juveniles with meals, drafting reports, generating transport documents, maintaining/stocking daily supplies, providing and issuing clothing as needed, coordinating with DHS and HHS staff, travel coordination, limited stationary guard services to accommodate for trip disruptions due to inclement weather, faulty equipment, or other exigent circumstances.

This advertisement raises a lot of questions. There is a lot of specificity reflected in this document that seeks to deal with an influx that hadn't as yet happened. How could they know 65,000, even breaking down the percentages that would be covered by ground, charter and air transportation?

Having received a lot of flack for the influx of illegals, there are some in the Obama regime are now trying to suggest, oh, of course, the children will be deported after the initial emergency crush is addressed. But if that is so, why the reference to "Office of Refugee Resettlement"

What is the mission of the Office of Refugee Resettlement?:

The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) provides new populations with opportunities to maximize their potential in the United States, linking people in need to critical resources to assist them in becoming integrated members of American society.

The purpose is not to take care of them and then ship them out, the purpose of the ORR is, in their own words, to resettle them and integrate them into the United States. The language is already defining them as "refugees" making it clear the administration's desire to have them stay, before they even arrive, before any individual case for asylum is even considered.

The very language confirms the crooked Obuma regime...
1) knew with specificity a huge influx was on the way and
2) they intended them to stay.

Very troubling to say the least...

(Don Rickles routine from a few years back... still cracks me up when I read it)

In real life, the brilliant Don Rickles never does any routine that even remotely touches on politics. Truth be told, I am a huge fan of Mr. Rickles, so I'm hoping this disclaimer gets me out of hot water with his public relations folks. Although I am pleased that I have actually met people -- very large and intimidating people -- who know him. So, remember, these are not Mr. Rickle's words; nor does he approve of them; and furthermore he is only -- by the barest thread imaginable -- tolerating my existence.

Hello, dummies!

Oh my God, look at you. Anyone else hurt in the accident?
Seriously, Senator Reid has a face of a Saint - A Saint Bernard.
Now I know why they call you the arithmetic man. You add partisanship, subtract pleasure, divide attention, and multiply ignorance.

Reid is so physically unimposing, he makes Pee Wee Herman look like Mr. T.
And Reid's so dumb, he makes Speaker Pelosi look like an intellectual.
Nevada is soooo screwed!
If I were less polite, I'd say Reid makes Kevin Federline look successful.

Speaking of the Speaker... Nancy Pelosi, hubba, hubba!
Hey baby, you must've been something before electricity.
Seriously, the Speaker may look like an idiot and talk like an idiot but don't let that fool you. She really is an idiot.

Madame Speaker... want to make twelve bucks the hard way?
Pelosi says she's not partisan, but her constituents call her Madame Pelossilini.

Charlie Rangel... still alive and still robbing the taxpayers blind. What does that make, six decades of theft?
Rangel's the only man with a rent-controlled mansion.

He's the guy who writes our tax laws but forgot to pay taxes on $75 grand in rental income!
So why isn't he the Treasury Secretary?
Rangel runs more scams than a Nigerian Banker.

Barney Frank - he's a better actor than Fred Flintstone.
Consider... he and Dodd caused the whole financial meltdown and they're not only not serving time with Bubba and Rodney, they're still heading up the financial system!

Let's all admit it... Barney Frank slobbers more than a sheepdog on novocaine.
How did this guy get elected? Oh, that's right... he's from Massachusetts.
That's the state that elects Mr. Charisma, John Kerry -- man of the people!

You know, if Senator Dodd were any more crooked, you could open wine bottles with him.
Here's a news flash, Dodd: when your local newspaper calls you a "lying weasel", it may be time to retire.

Dodd's involved in more shady deals than the Clintons.
Even Rangel looks up to him!

Press Secretary Robert Gibbs, I really respect you... especially given your upbringing. All you've overcome...
I heard your birth certificate is an apology from the condom factory.

I don't know what makes you so dumb, but it really works for you.
Personally, I don't think you are a fool, but what's my opinion compared to that of thousands of others?
Gibbs does his best expositional work in the bathroom every morning.

As for President Obama, what can I say?
They say President Obama's arrogant and aloof, but I don't agree.
Now it's true when you enter the room, you have to kiss his ring. I don't mind, but he has it in his back pocket.
His mind is open to new ideas -- so open that ideas simply pass through it.

Obama lies so much, I was actually surprised to find out his first name really was Barack.
Just don't ask about his middle name!
But Obama was able to set a record... he actually lied more in 60 days than Bill Clinton.
As far as his administration -- what with the tax cheat and lobbyists -- well, in the words of Patches O'Houlihan, "It's like watching a bunch of retards trying to hump a doorknob out there."

With all due respect.

I've found that if you add "with all due respect" to the end, any insult is okay.
