There is none anywhere: What a difference a day makes. On Monday, this blog reported The Philadelphia Inquirer was paying former publisher Brian Tierney $25,000 a month to run a national advertising campaign that flopped. Today, according to two sources, the newspaper fired Tierney. Talk about a bargain! Or you could have hired six ad salesmen for $50,000 each for a year, but hey, all they’d do is sell shit, not “run a national campaign.” Fucking kill me now, that these people are in charge. A.

It comes from “moderate deal maker” Senator Tom Coburn from the state where the wind comes sweepin’ down the plain: “There’s no comity with Harry Reid. I think he’s an absolute asshole.” Coburn said this at a fundraiser for Noo Yawk Mayoral candidate Joe Lhota. The only comity with Tom Coburn comes from the comedy that ensues when MSM media types insist that he’s a non-crazy, semi-pragmatic Republican. Wrong, he’s just another surrey with a wingnut fringe on top. That’s my last Rodgers and Hammerstein reference. I promise. I am, however, glad that Coburn no longer has a beard. He … Continue reading Quote Of The Day: Civility Edition

FromAlbum 5 When it comes to research, Senator Paul puts the lazy into laissez-faire, not just using Wikipedia butciting it verbatim…and without attribution. He says it’s all a misunderstanding, though as Rachel Maddow pointed out last night, Paul either doesn’t know or won’t acknowledge what plagiarism actually is. Or maybe he’s been told about Joe Biden’s run to obscurity in 1988 after a similar instance (I’ve read Joe was pilloried unfairly for forgetting to reference Neil Kinnock only once, though the Times mentions an additional allegation from law school). My guess is this is likely a staffer writing or editing … Continue reading Wikirandia

Here’s a news of the weird story with a classic headline, Britney Spears’ music used by British Navy to scare off Somali Pirates: In an excellent case of “here’s a sentence you won’t read every day”, Britney Spears has emerged as an unlikely figurehead in the fight against Somali pirates. According to reports, Britney’s hits, including Oops!

Seriously, these assholes: Justin promised Emily that nobody else would ever see the photos, and it seems he meant to keep that promise. But Justin left his phone unattended at a party, and another boy, we’ll call him Brett, picked up Justin’s phone, scrolled through the photos, and saw the ones Emily had sent. Brett forwarded the photos of Emily from Justin’s phone to his phone, and then posted the photos on Instagram, using an account with a fictitious name. Within their suburban community, the photos went viral. Other girls began calling her “Emily the slut.” Boys came up to … Continue reading Stop Blaming Technology for How Your Kids Suck
This asshole: (USA TODAY) – A Fargo, N.D., woman says she will give trick-or-treaters that she deems ‘moderately obese’ a letter instead of candy this Halloween. “I just want to send a message to the parents ofkids that are really overweight… I think it’s just really irresponsible of parents to send them out looking for free candy just ’cause all the other kids are doing it,” the woman said in a morning radio interview with Y-24. She wouldn’t identify herself. In the first place, USA TODAY, why are you giving real estate to some whackjob who calls in to a … Continue reading Today in People Who Need Hobbies

There’s a new book out aboutNorman Granz and Verve Records, which got me thinking about the late, great Oscar Peterson. who is one of my musical heroes. He was, quite simply, the best pianist in any genre, ever. The genius of Verve Records when Granz was running the show was packaging Jazz for a mainstream audience without diluting the quality of the music.

This has been making the rounds, mostly approvingly, and I think some of it’s goat shit: Unlike the Tea Party, most left wingers don’t really believe their own ideology. They put partisanship first, or they put the color of a candidate’s skin or the shape of their genitals over the candidate’s policy. Identity is more important to them than how many brown children that politician is killing. So progressives have no power, because they have no principles: they cannot be expected to actually vote for the most progressive candidate, to successfully primary candidates, to care about policy first and identity … Continue reading This Wasn’t Just Our Failure

It has been awhile since Bill Clinton rewrote history to make himself look better than the current occupant: Bill Clinton has criticised the lack of deal-makers in Washington politics, hinting at the frustration some in his camp feel toward the isolated Obama White House during a campaign rally for long-time fundraiser and current Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe. Though primarily attacking Republican intransigence during the government shutdown, the former president made a series of arguments for more consensus-building across the partisan divide and defended the would-be governor of Virginia’s reputation for being a power broker. “When people sneeringly say McAuliffe … Continue reading It’s good to be a former President

I can’t imagine why resale value isn’t a major consideration for home improvement anymore: Q: For a while, the industry was saying that future resale value was driving consumers’ kitchen design choices, which seemed to result in an ocean of beige, which they perceived as “safe.” Is that still the case? A: In our survey, resale value seemed to be a motivation for about a third of the people who were remodeling, so it is meaningful but not the most important thing. That’s been consistent for the past couple of years. They’re doing things they like and picking things that … Continue reading Or They Know Resale is a Forlorn Hope
Which should be the real title of this piece: But competitive districts — where moderates tend to thrive — are becoming a thing of the past thanks in large part to redistricting. And that means an uphill battle of a primary for any moderate candidate who tries to challenge a conservative member. Asked whether a moderate Republican movement could really materialize, former Rep. Steve LaTourette, who now is the president of the Main Street Partnership, was cautiously optimistic. “It’s possible; it’s going to be difficult and it’s not going to happen overnight. There is an appetite for it but it … Continue reading Can Republicans Once Again Hide Their Bigotry Enough to Get Elected?

How Long Will Muslim Brotherhood Force Huma Abedin to Stay Married to Anthony Weiner?Godfather Politics ^ | 7/27/2013 | Dave Jolly
Posted on Monday, September 02, 2013 6:05:55 AM by IbJensen
Anthony Weiner was a promising Democratic congressman from New York’s 9th District which is located entirely within Brooklyn. First elected in 1999, Weiner easily won re-elections with no less than 59% of the vote. In 2005, he ran for Mayor of New York City and lost, but still remained a very popular congressman.
In 2009, Weiner, a Jew, got engaged to Huma Abedin, a Muslim and aide to then Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. They married in 2010 and now have a son named Jordan Zain Weiner.
Last year, Weiner was caught sexting messages and nude images of himself, forcing him to resign from Congress in shame, but Abedin stood by him. Weiner is now running for Mayor of New York City again and he has been caught with even more sexting with over half a dozen different women. Weiner refuses to withdraw from the race and his popularity in New York does not seem to be diminished by the scandal. Once again, Abedin stands by her husband.
Huma Abedin is a devout Muslim from a powerful Muslim family. Her mother is Saleha Mahmoud Abedin, a professor and dean at Dar El-Hekma College in Saudi Arabia. She is also a prominent official in the Muslim Sisterhood, the female counterpart to the Muslim Brotherhood. Although Huma married a Jew, a mortal enemy of all Muslims, she is still accepted by her Muslim family and friends. Normally her marriage would have constituted her being disowned by the family and subjected to an honor killing.
So one has to beg the question why she had been allowed to marry a Jew and not face disgrace from her family and fellow Muslims?
I believe the answer can be found in a Muslim word ‘Muruna’. There are times when Muslim leadership believe it is more important to plant a spy to gain valuable information than it is for that spy to follow all Muslim law. It is not uncommon for Muslim leadership to push a woman into a relationship with a non-Muslim in order to gain the confidence and trust of an infidel. Once that trust has been gained, the Muslim woman can begin to exert some influence into the dealings of her husband and in the process learn important secrets that she can pass on to her Muslim handlers back home.
I believe Huma Abedin is a Muruna and that her marriage to the Rep. Anthony Weiner was planned and sanctioned by the Muslim Brotherhood. At the time, Weiner had high expectations of furthering his political career, possibly a run for senate seat once held by Hillary Clinton or even higher. Having a husband in the US Congress would be a great asset to the Muslim Brotherhood.
Then Weiner was disgraced and ended up resigning from Congress. If that was the end of his political career, it would seem that a divorce would have been proper, but for some reason, it wasn’t to be. This makes me wonder if Weiner’s run for mayor could have been prompted by the strong encouragement of his wife, Abedin.The Muslim Brotherhood has invested too much into Abedin’s marriage with Weiner to throw it down the tubes so soon, so he is being advised or pressured to run for office again.
If Weiner loses the mayoral election, then perhaps the Muslim Brotherhood will advise her to get a divorce and concentrate on her position as an advisor to the State Department. Abedin will still be a valuable asset to the Muslim Brotherhood, even without Weiner because of her relationship with Hillary Clinton. She was Clinton’s number one confidant while she was Secretary of State. If Hillary manages to win the presidential election in 2016, you can bet your bottom dollar that Abedin will be by her side in some key role, enabling her to pass many state secrets back to her Muslim Brotherhood family.
In my opinion, Huma Abedin is a dangerous enemy of the United States and should be treated as such.
*************************************
Democrats, like Hillary and Obama, surround themselves with the enemy
because they have so much in common. Weener marrying Huma was a stroke of the bazaar (sic).
Huma’s no beauty,
Well, she’s no Ann Coulter, that’s for sure:
blockquote>
but she’s a damn site (sic) better looking that the pencil-necked geek Weener. What she could gain from this scrawny pervert is difficult to fathom.
To: IbJensenWeiner was a member of Congress with the perfect blackmail qualifications. It was a setup from the beginning otherwise Huma would have already been dead for marrying a Jew.

The marriage to Weiner is a beard for her association with Hillary.
Weiner is nothing.
Hillary is the ticket .
As Secretary of State Hillary was Huma’s source of information.
If Hillary can be elected President sleeping with Hillary will be Abedins source in the White House.Michelle Bachman suggested Abedin be investigated,
Michelle Bachman barks at passing cars.
and Obama the head Muslims and even many Republicans in Congress attacked Bachman unmercifully. Bachman was right. Abedin has no business being associated with people in high places in our country. She is a Muslim spy IMO.
Bachman’s a Muslim spy?
She will stay with Weiner as long as he works as a beard for Abedins lesbian association with Hillary, until Hillary loses her run for President. When Hillary is no longer useful Abedin will make a move out of her disgusting job as lover to a fat nasty foul mouthed witch

Evil Internet blogger made a newspaper editor resign … unless he didn’t! When he talks about being a “whipping boy” to “one and all,” he’s obviously not talking about being censored; the context of the whole piece is that meanies like that one evil blogger are accusing him of showing bias. Well… now he admits the evil blogger was right. Now he admits all the readers’ observations about bias were true. And that, my friends, is kind of a big deal. Now, he all but admits that my conspiracy-dripping inquiry was pretty much spot-on. Now that he’s off the Tribune’s … Continue reading The Internet Fired The Editor, Unless It Didn’t
