A friend passed along this video to me today, and boy is it inspiring! I can’t add anything to what Barbara says, except to say she is right on. It’s time to mobilize and work hard for freedom. We must go above and beyond, and do whatever it takes to get Obama out of the White House in 2012.
This video’s been pulled by YouTube many times, no matter how many times Atlas Shrugs or others re-post it. I finally got it up on LiveLeak and I hope they allow it to stay.
From Pamela Gellar’s blog post:
I ran a link to this Facebook video a few weeks back. A human rights group, Secular Democracy & Human Rights For Iran, posted the horrific video, but Facebook took it down (of course). It’s been posted to youtube (thanks to Megan). Download a copy. If they take it down, upload it again and again and again.
Is it any wonder that children raised in Muslim countries under the sharia grow up to hate, void of basic human decency? Each child is systematically hit. The adults laughing after a particularly cruel beating is as bad as the beating itself.
If this video gets pulled by LiveLeak, I’ll post it elsewhere…. otherwise, please share this with others who continue to believe Islam is a religion of “peace.”
Well, now isn’t this just spiffy? According to a story in the Bay Area NBC paper, that’s exactly what this new bill would do. From the article:
“A new state bill in the California State Senate could make social-networking sites like Facebook take down personal information and photos for account users under 18 and require more private settings.
“The bill’s language also states that social-networking sites would have to comply with parental requests to remove information or photos from their children’s pages or accounts. The new bill “would require removal of that information regarding a user under 18 years of age upon request by the user’s parent, within 48 hours upon his or her request.”
How do you square this? California is one of those all-permissive states that prefers kids’ rights over parents, so that’s why this kind of shocked me. Especially considering who introduced the bill, SB 242: Sen. Ellen Corbett (D-San Leandro). But where is the hypocrisy you ask? Somehow it makes sense to let parents edit their kids’ Facebook pages, but let a parent know their daughter is going to get an abortion? Fuggeddaboudit! It’s THEN that kids’ rights trump parents’ rights. What a bunch of hypocrites.
Don’t get me wrong… I’m all for parents monitoring their kids’ online activity, but I’m ALSO for parents being the ones who control any and all health issues regarding their children. You can’t have it both ways.
Today’s Glenn Beck show was a very somber yet thought-provoking one. Living, breathing, sentient beings are turning against one another, and for stupid, idiotic reasons. Since when did we think it was good for the Republic that we be fighting amongst ourselves, instead of uniting together again like we did on 9/11 & 9/12/01?
Unfortunately, our priorities are all fouled up. The man-on-the-street interviews done by many TV hosts show the sad state of intellect and knowledge that is going to be the death of this country if we don’t wise up.
Glenn makes a great point about this very subject. Why is it that “The Jersey Shore” has record-breaking ratings for MTV, yet most of the viewers of these shows cannot name many elected officials when shown their photos? Why do we ALLOW ourselves to become so focused on the “Entertainment Tonight” shows of the world, yet refuse to pull our heads out of our asses long enough to at least pay attention to some of what’s going on in the real world?
I mean, I understand the need to escape every now and then, and then there’s the Schadenfreude of watching fools like Snooki, Paris, and the Bachelor, but sooner or later these same folks are going to wake up and be shocked into reality, asking “WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO MY COUNTRY?” Dude…you might not have been so surprised if you had been paying attention all along, and perhaps becoming involved to whatever extent for which you can find the time.
After all, if we have men and women in uniform fighting and dying on battlefields around the globe for your very FREEDOM to be so ignorant about current events, the least you can do is make yourself aware of what’s going on in the world…outside of reality TV, that is.
As I told a friend once, “You say that you are not into politics, but whether you like it or not, sooner or later politics gets into you.” It’s attitudes like these that make most Americans believe Sarah Palin said “I can see Russia from my house,” yet have never even ONCE heard/saw the video of Pelosi saying “We have to pass the bill so we can find out what’s in it” referring to Obamacare.
It is a truly sad state of affairs, and I’m afraid society will fall if we don’t get our acts together… like YESTERDAY!
Heartbreaking…just heartbreaking. That’s all I can say. If we continue to consider human life AT ANY stage is worthless, we will continue to devalue our own humanity.
Former Planned Parenthood Director, Abby Johnson, appeared on the Huckabee show this weekend to talk about her transformation from a pro-choice advocate to a pro-life advocate. It all started when she first was called in to assist on an abortion, and she saw on the ultrasound the actual crumbling of an innocent life. She has turned that experience into her new quest to expose what abortion REALLY is; the extermination of a living being.
God bless you, Abby…thank you for your voice and experience. May God continue to bless you and those you seek to protect.
