Nihilism???



Consider this quote of our fearless leader:

"And so, you know, this is a problem that causes great heartache and tragedy and destruction, but it is one that ultimately we're going to defeat. But we can't just defeat it through weapons. One of the things that we spoke about is how do we lift up those voices that represent the vast majority of the Muslim world, so that that counter-narrative against this nihilism is put out there as aggressively and as nimbly as the messages coming out from these -- these fanatics." 


Here is the definition of nihilism:


"the rejection of all religious and moral principles, often in the belief that life is meaningless." (Wikipedia)


HE WILL NOT SAY: "ISLAMIC TERRORISM."


At the same event, David Cameron said this:

"We do face a very serious Islamist extremist terrorist threat in Europe, in America, across the world. And we have to be incredibly vigilant in terms of that threat." 


Nihilism or Islamic Terrorism?


You decide. . .

Why I'm Not Watching the State of the Union Address

 
Why watch something as predictable as the State of the Union Address? It is an exercise in frustration. We didn't break our government, and -- the way things are now -- common citizens have very little hope of fixing the colluded, corrupt mess that our leaders have marched us into.

First, there will be a huge plug for ObamaCare that will be centered in our liberal government's alternate reality of denial and vacuous affirmation. If I want that, I will listen to Louise Hay or Tony Robbins. At least some of those affirmations are true and centered in the real world. Obama will talk about cheap birth control, access to abortions and not going bankrupt because of a serious illness. For your average secular citizen, this may seem promotable. But for Christians, some cannot promote birth control and most cannot sanction abortion. This is driving companies out of business (can you say, "Hob-by Lob-by," please) and, if the Supreme Court rules against their challenge, the Little Sisters of Charity may have to offer abortion services and birth control medications to their celibate members.

Next, Obama will tout immigration reform. For the Dems, immigration reform consists of unabated amnesty overloading our government's medical, welfare and housing-assistance programs to name a few. This will bankrupt us. While I am definitely an advocate of legal immigration and extending a compassionate open hand to non-citizens who are willing to work through their way through our current immigration process, I also believe that unrestrained immigration is a liberal manipulation device that will ruin our conservative social and religious freedoms. We do not want to become a one-party society.

The third thrust of Obama's speech will  be about other ear ticklers, like clean-coal and wind-farm technology -- even though Obama has all but obliterated the coal industry in the United States. He will talk about how we are going to be completely out of the Middle East by the end of his term in office -- and maybe even by the end of the year. Obama won't talk about how his politically-driven Middle East policy is leaving our interests here and abroad at the hands of malevolent groups who have hijacked Islam and wish us to become their brand of Islam or perish. Obama has not the courage to stand up to terrorism nor to the terrorists who are slaughtering peaceful, law-abiding Christians in the Middle East and those who want to obliterate our ally, Israel. In fact, in Syria, our government has been giving Islamic rebels some of the weapons they are using for the mass-murder of Middle Eastern Christians.

After all this, Obama may launch into a soliloquy on divisive government (he's referring to conservatives who refuse to rubber stamp his policies) and drive home his latest expose on how he plans to leave Congress in the dust, hop on over the Constitution in-total and sign lots of executive orders for bringing forth the "fundamental change" he wants to be remembered for.

As for me, when the State of the Union Address airs tomorrow, I'm going to tune in to The Shahs of Sunset and then to Fox News. That way I can be entertained, informed and go to bed happy.

Why Can't We Prosecute?




The administration has lied to us about keeping our own doctors and health plan. They have lied to us on the success of Obamacare enrollment and engaged in deceptive number crunching to convince us that people are actually signing up for it. The administration via the IRS targeted conservative and Jewish groups prior to the 2012 election. They supposedly investigated the allegations and – yet – have decided that there was no criminal action to prosecute. So now conservatives are pressing for an investigation of the investigators.

Then comes the cluster-scandal of Benghazi. The President sent out Susan Rice to dupe us into believing that the violence at the embassy on September 11, 2012 was a “spontaneous” demonstration resulting from a “despicable” film denigrating Islam. President Obama’s staff still has not informed us of what he was doing on the night of the Benghazi attack. Hillary Clinton “disappears” and isn’t even interviewed in the original Benghazi investigation. When she is finally interviewed, she blasts us with her famous “What difference does it make,” diatribe. State Department workers were supposedly disciplined when – in reality – they were just shifted into different job positions at the State Department. It took the Administration over a year to name Ansar al Shawari a terrorist group. It took over a year to learn “officially” that several al Qaeda linked groups were involved in the Benghazi attack.

It goes on and on and on – the never-ending list of bullying, obfuscating, lying, shifting blame and ducking -- with zero consequences attached. What about Solyndra and Lisa Jackson and Fast-and-Furious and voter intimidation by the New Black Panthers? What about Biden’s bullying of the press and the IRS and Obama’s abuse of executive power and the $2 million payment to David Axelrod for work performed in his alternate universe? Why were government employees in Benghazi demoted and harassed for telling the truth about what happened? What is going to happen with Iraq and Afghanistan? Did our brave soldiers die in vain? Why can't we hear from the Benghazi survivors?

Why can’t we prosecute this administration?
