Hillary's blatant hypocrisy

In her fight for women's health, the LGBT community and the presidency of the United States, Hillary Clinton has reached out to her Clinton Foundation donors, but faces an uphill battle in trying to get their support and win the job as POTUS.

Saudi Arabia, who had "donated" $50 million to the Clinton Foundation said they would not, under any circumstances, support women's rights or gay rights on any level. In fact, Saudi officials made it clear that they did not want to deal directly with Ms. Clinton as she is a woman and considered inferior to men, and the idea of any woman running a country is ludicrous as far as they're concerned.

The Saudis said they preferred to deal with her husband Bill, whose philandering is appreciated by the Islamic nation as they are permitted multiple wives and understand Bill's insatiable sexual appetite.

In fact, Saudi Arabia, like some other Islamic countries, kills homosexuals as prescribed in the Koran. Depending upon the circumstances, the penalty for committing a homosexual act can be public flogging (100 lashes for adultery)  or other strict Sharia sentence.

While Ms. Clinton eagerly accepts money from this homophobic, misogynist nation, she doesn't confront their beliefs nor advertise them to her constituents. 

The Saudis also tend to treat women worse than their camels. 

Saudi women cannot leave home without a male relative as an chaperone, and must be covered "modestly" to ensure they're not raped for indecency or beaten by the "Morality Police." 

Morality Police? What an oxymoron.

Algeria, another Islamic country, donated only $250,000 to $500,000 to the Clintons, but refuse to help gays and any gays caught in their country can get anywhere from 2 months to 2 years in the slammer. If one person is under 18, the other can get as many as 3 years and fined 10,000 dinars. That isn't a lot of money by our standa, about $124, but in Algeria, it's substantial. Human rights in Algeria kind of suck too, but Hillary doesn't care where the money comes from as long as it comes.

Other Islamic countries that have given to the Clintons that treat women with contempt and homosexuals with strong punishments are:

Brunie: donated $1 million to $5 million
Kuwait: donated $5 million to $10 million
Qatar: donated $5.8 million
Sultanate of Oman: donated $1 million to $5 million
United Arab Emirates: donated $11.5 million

Jamaica gave anywhere from $50,000 to $100,000 which for Hillary is "chump change." She makes more than that in a 20-minute Wall Street speech. 

And while being gay isn't a crime in Jamaica, they imprison gays who are caught in the act up to 10 years. 

So while Hillary claims to support gay rights, the LGBT community, and women's rights, her lack of voice against countries who clearly oppose these rights speaks volumes.

The only thing Hillary Clinton clearly supports is Hillary Clinton.

Everyone Equal Always, Nintendo

We've come a long way as a society. We have elected a black president, made interracial marriage legal, accepted sexual diversity, and have come to the point where if we don't include gay relationships in our children's video games, we  apologize for it.

Nintendo has apologized and swore to include gay couples in their English editions life-simulator video games after coming under fire from gay rights organizations. The company was attacked after refusing to add same-sex relationship content to the game "Tomodachi Life," but then apologized ". . . for disappointing many people by failing to include same-sex relationships in Tomodachi Life." The game is set to be released in early June of this year.

While it was not possible to add gay guys and lesbians to the current game, along with people who had operations to change their external sexual make-up, nor depict cross-dressers and whatever other sexual preferences people choose in their lifestyle, they vowed to make changes in their future games. 

Tye Marini, a gay 23 year old from Arizona, started a campaign last month on social media seeking virtual equality for the characters depicted in the game. It is unclear as to Tye's sexual preferences, but if you ask him or her, I'm sure he or she will tell you.

"Nintendo has taken a first step, but if the company's long-time values are rooted in 'fun and entertainment for everyone,' then it needs to catch up to peers like Electronic Arts, which has been inclusive of LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) gamers for years," said Sarah Kate Ellis, CEO of GLAAD, the gay media bully organization.

It is projected that others will get in on the indignation and force Nintendo to include their shtick. For example, it is not inconceivable that vegetarians, Democrats, orthodox Muslims, and others with mental disorders will follow suit.

Why not? We all have equal rights, right?

I honestly have nothing against people with different sexual preferences, but just as I don't advertise mine, or march in "Straight Pride" parades, I think it's time to give it a rest. When a parade is no longer needed to show the world that you're okay with who you are, only then will you really be okay with yourself and know that you're accepted.

Islamophia and Unicorns

In an article entitled "The Politics of Islamophobia," the website Discoverthenetworks.org says that the term "Islamophobia" was invented in the early 1990s by the International Institute for Islamic Thought (IIIT), a front group for the Muslim Brotherhood. The term became an active focus of the Muslim Brotherhood after 9/11 when Islamic lobbyist organizations like the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), an unindicted co-conspirator of the Holy Land Foundation, accused Americans, law-enforcement authorities, etc., of harboring a deep and potentially dangerous prejudice against Muslims. Of course, none of this was ever corroborated by FBI statistics.

Gay RIghts Bullies

Brendan Eich lasted ten days as CEO of Mozilla. He was pressured into resigning because, like president Obama, in 2008 they supported Proposition 8, which was an anti-gay rights measure (as pro same-sex marriage people call it). 

Michael Hiltzel of the Los Angeles Times, believes the discussion should focus on Eigh's right to be CEO of Mozilla. It should not focus on the fact that Obama held the same belief back in the day, and nobody has called for his resignation. Of course, Obama changed his view when it became politically expedient, or he "evolved" for the gay vote.

So the US gay rights community is saying that you don't deserve to be gainfully employed if you don't support their beliefs and behavior, even when it goes against your morals or religious beliefs. 

When Eich's $1000 donation in support of Proposition 8 was discovered (someone obviously made it 'come out of the closet,' so to speak) the war against Eich began.

An online dating website, OKCupid asked its followers to stop using Mozilla's Firefox browser and Credo Mobile, a wireless company, received around 50,000 signatures demanding Eich's resignation. In a letter posted by OKCupid they wrote: Those who seek to deny love and instead enforce misery, shame and frustration are our enemies and we wish them nothing but failure." How freaking tolerant, and how convenient to interpret one's views that way.

Executive Chairwoman, Mitchell Baker (now there's a confusing first name that belies one's sexual identity) said: "Mozilla prides itself on being held to a different standard and this week, we didn't live up to it."

Ms. Baker also spoke about freedom of speech and equality, and believes the latter trumps the former: "Equality is necessary for meaningful speech and you need free speech to fight for equality. Figuring out how to stand for both at the same time can be hard."

Yes, for idiots like Mitch Baker, it can be very hard, especially if you disregard the first ten Amendments of the Constitution, often referred to as the Bill of Rights.

But leftists think that anyone who opposes their beliefs, which, after all, are the only fair ones to be considered, ought to be shut up. They want Rush Limbaugh, for example, to be thrown off the air, because he's wrong and they're right and he has no rights to disagree, for after all, they're right.

Obama told his top military officials that if they don't believe in the  "Don't ask, don't tell" policy, they should hand in their resignation. In other words, fall in, or fall out if you think differently than him. So he has led the attack not on conservatives alone, but on the United States Constitution, and he shows it with his disregard for what it says and offers.

Thankfully, there are a few brave souls in the gay community, like Tammy Bruce, who believe these attacks on individual beliefs and the demand for their dismissals is wrong. I concur and applaud her.

In my latest novel, a New York reporter is taken hostage by terrorists. If POTUS refuses to release 3 Gitmo jihadists, the reporter will die in 24 hours—they will behead him and show it on the Internet. There is only one way out but the clock is ticking . . .

An Oldie and a Baddie

Fred Phelps Sr. has gone where the goblins go. The pastor of the Westboro Baptist Church in Kansas is dead, like the soldiers whose funerals he picketed with signs that celebrated their death at the hands of his god who punishes Americans for our unholy behavior of supporting gay rights. Freddy passed on to the great beyond where he may have discovered his cloudmate is gay--wouldn't that be a blast?

I cannot allow myself to be happy about the death of this guy. He was a misguided, mean-spirited, hateful, anti-gay, anti-American, anti-fun, and antidisestablishmentarianism, (a word I learned to spell at the age of about eight, thanks to my late sister, Ellen who at that time I lovingly called "Ellen Bellen Watermelon"), kind of person. But to celebrate Phelp's death would put me in the same category as him. Now Osama bin Laden; that's a different story. Like the Afghans who danced along Coney Island Avenue, in Brooklyn, when the buildings came down, I danced when Osama was brought down with a double-tap to the head.

Nate Phelps, the 55 year old son of Freddy, understands why some people are happy that his daddy died. Nate cut out of the church, his daddy's life, and the USA when he was just 18, and moved to Alberta, Canada. There doesn't seem to be any love lost.

So we say goodbye to Rev. Freddy Phelps. But we should not fret--we still have another hate-spreading man of the cloth, the very reverend Al Sharptongue.
