Assoc. Press defends the Qur'an, attacks Okla. lawmaker for asking related questions

"Shut up and take it like a good wife"
Tulsa, OK -- It's all in how you word what you write as to how the public may process it.

An Associated Press' March 4, 2017 headline reads: "Oklahoma lawmaker asks Muslims: 'Do you beat your wife?'"

My headline phrases the article somewhat differently but factually correct. In the Qur'an (as well as other books of Islamic scripture) men are allowed to beat their wives when they disobey: 
"Men have authority over women because Allah has made the one superior to the other, and because they spend their wealth to maintain them. Good women are obedient. They guard their unseen parts because Allah has guarded them. As for those from whom you fear disobedience, admonish them and send them to beds apart and beat them." --Qur'an 4:34
Muhammad "struck me on the chest which caused me pain, and then said: Did you think that Allah and His Apostle would deal unjustly with you?" --Aisha (Sahih Muslim 2127)
By the way, Aisha was Muhammad's child bride who he married when she was 6 and he 53. The marriage was consummated when Aisha reached the ripe old age of 9. 

Anyway, this Oklahoma Rep. John Bennett, distributed a questionnaire last week as the Oklahoma chapter of CAIR (Council on American-Islamic Relations) kicked off its annual Muslim Day at the Capitol.

Rep. Bennett told Muslims who wished to meet with him to fill out a form his office provided that bluntly asked: "Do you beat your wife?" Whether they would denounce terror groups such as Hezbollah and Hamas. And if they believe that former Muslims who leave the religion should be punished for leaving. 

All of those questions, except for the one referring to the terrorist groups specifically, deal directly with Sharia--or Islamic law. 

CAIR, an un-indicted co-conspirator with the Muslim Brotherhood (MB) in the Holy Land Foundation trial that dealt with the MB funding terrorist organizations, said the form contained "hateful, bigoted questions."

I fail to see how hatred has anything to do with trying to determine if specific women are in danger, or if a person supports terrorism. The only hatred in these cases are on the shoulders of the person answering the questions. 

Bigotry has to do with the intolerance of those with different opinions. That sums up the religion of Islam in many forms of its practice, such as killing apostates, or those who leave Islam. Those people are to be killed, according to Muhammad.

Now that's bigotry.

It is high time we stop pretending Islam is not a problem, at least in its extreme form.

She He It

The Associated Press and a number of liberal liberal arts colleges want to make language more user-friendly to those who are easily offended by gender stereotypes. The AP has stated:

"The 'she' and 'hers' that dominate introductions are keeping third-person company with 'they,' 'ze' and other alternatives meant to convey a more generous notion of gender."

Distractions Lead to Liberal Wins

We all know that the letters GOP stands for "Grand Old Party," but the way things are going lately, one may begin to believe that it stands for "Going Off Point." We have enough scandals in this administration to cover all the ones in the best little whore house in Texas, but Republicans are going after every carrot the Democrats hold out in front of their noses.


Susan Rice just got promoted to National Security Advisor, and Republicans are ready to rumble over the appointment. Not that we can do anything about it since it doesn't go before congress and isn't therefore, up for discussion or questioning. So we need to stop complaining about that and continue focusing on Benghazi and Rice's role in passing along the fake message, and who gave the orders to do that. We need to dig deeper into what Obama was doing during the missing 8 hours after he got the call on Benghazi.

Illegal Aliens and the "Journalists" Who Love Them

As the saying goes: calling an illegal alien an undocumented immigrant is like calling a drug dealer an unlicensed pharmacist. Words have meaning; words count.
Time Marx's On

Jose A. Vargas, a former Washington Post reporter, was one of the first who cried out against calling illegal aliens in that term. Instead, he openly declared himself an "undocumented immigrant," and the leftist press cheered him on. According to Michelle Malkin,(The Open-Borders “Journalists” Who Banned “Illegal Immigrant,” Creator's Syndicate, 2013) however, Vargas had fake documents up the wazoo, including a fake passport with false name, fake green card and a Social Security card that his grandfather doctored for him. Guess documenting runs in the family--illegal documents, that is. 

The Associated Press (Ass Press, for short), has taken the term "illegal alien" out of its  style book. You can't say "an illegal" either, unless it's in a direct quote.

Malkin believes that there may soon come a time when "border crossers, illegal visa overstayers, illegal deportatoin evaders, document fraudsters and illegal alien traffickers are referred to as "our fellow Americans." Without the quotation marks. Mark my words."

So, as long as we're not going to call people who cross the US border from a foreign country without documentation and who are breaking US law, illegal aliens, why should we call people who supposedly report the news in a fair, balanced and unbiased way, "journalists" when it's obvious they are merely shills for the vast left wing conspiracy? As Jay Leno said, "they will no longer be called 'illegal immigrants", they will now be called 'undocumented Democrats." Many a truth has been said in jest.

Jihadi Mamdani’s Definition of “Socialism” Is Actually State-Controlled Totalitarianism
