Noted Leftist tool: Yes I may have a daughter, but I wanted her aborted so….

Posted in Culture on May 24th, 2008 by gatordoug

What a prick!

The author and screenwriter Gore Vidal, one of the last giants of an American literary scene that included Norman Mailer, Truman Capote and Joseph Heller, has admitted that he may once have fathered a love child, but refused to be part of her upbringing because he had paid for the mother to have an abortion.

“Possibly. I don’t believe so,” he replies when asked if the rumours are true. “The father was either me or a German photographer. I believe the mother is dead. The child was a girl. Every Christmas I would receive a picture of them all around the tree, and there’s the little girl looking like me. I could have a daughter, yes.”

Asked why he has made no attempt to contact her, he replies: “I sent her mother money for an abortion. Which she used to go to Detroit, where she found a rich man.”

Classless!

News crew attacked at Muslim school

Posted in Culture on May 19th, 2008 by gatordoug

There is a video at the link. It looks like this school has some serious explaining to do

The state Education Department on Monday directed a Minnesota charter school to “correct” two areas related to religion at the school.Tarik ibn Zayad Academy, which focuses on Middle Eastern culture and shares a mosque with the Muslim American Society of Minnesota, came under fire after a teacher alleged that the school was offering religious instruction in Islam to its students.“The Minnesota Department of Education goes to great lengths to make clear to charter schools and their sponsors that, while schools should appropriately accomodate students’ religious beliefs, they must be ‘nonsectarian’ under the state’s charter school law,” said the state’s education Deputy Commissioner Chas Anderson.

The allegations first surfaced after an article by a columnist for the Star Tribune. The Education Department subsequently began a review of the suburban Inver Grove Heights school and released its findings Monday.

The agency said it was concerned about the school, with about 300 students, accommodating communal prayer and providing transportation to an after-school religious program.

“We have directed the school to take appropriate corrective actions regarding these matters and will continue to provide oversight to ensure that the school is in compliance with state and federal law,” Anderson said.

In an attempt to report about the new findings from the Department of Education, 5 EYEWITNESS NEWS went to TiZA. While on school grounds, our crew was attacked by school officials. The two men were able to grab our camera and kept it until police arrived.

And This Scumbag is one of them!

A man has been charged with animal cruelty for allegedly stomping a tiny puppy to death because it wasn’t house trained. Police say a Bessemer City man confessed to killing the chihuahua mix because he was sick of the dog. He allegedly confessed while on his way to jail.

Sherry Thomas said her daughter, Crystal Williams, ran to her house describing what Williams’ boyfriend had done to their new puppy.

“My daughter says she heard quite a few bangs, she didn’t know what it was til she went out and she saw blood coming out of its mouth,” Thomas said.

There are no words to describe how vile and despicble this waste of skin is!

Great News! Islam embraces technology!

Well, as long as technology allows a husband to divorce his wife by texting three times that he is dumping her. Progress, Sharia style

Getting a quickie divorce has taken on a whole new meaning in Malaysia after it was decided that a man can divorce his wife with a text message.The government’s adviser on religious affairs, the man who counsels Malaysia’s Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, said as long as the message was clear and unambiguous it was valid under Islamic Sharia law. “SMS is just another form of writing,” Dr Abdul Hamid Othman was quoted by the New Straits Times daily newspaper as saying.The decision follows a Malaysian court’s ruling on Thursday in favour of a man who served divorce on his wife via a text message.

UPDATE! Maybe Islam isn’t evolving after all. Michelle Malkin reports that Muslims in England are infected with Muslim Outrage Syndrome, MOS, over evil billboards showing women in bikinis.

A COUNCILLOR today called for more control over advertising posters in “culturally sensitive” areas of Birmingham.
Coun Talib Hussain made his plea after a billboard on the corner of Sydenham Road and Golden Hillock Road, in predominantly Muslim Sparkbrook, was defaced.
The hoarding, close to mosques in Anderton Road and Golden Hillock Road and visible to parents and children walking to Montgomery Primary School, promotes Matalan’s new swimwear range and features three scantily-clad models.

The models have been covered in thick white paint to conceal bare flesh.

Coun Talib Hussain (Ind, Sparkbrook) criticised the vandalism but said it was a result of the lack of action from city council bosses. He said: “I condemn the people that did this but at the same time it’s wrong for companies to put that kind of advert in sensitive wards.

“I have received complaints on a number of occasions not to put adverts like that in Sparkbrook. “The city council should not give permission to advertising like that in these wards. “Having families seeing naked pictures does not bring the community together, it provokes things.”

The vandalism is similar to a spate of attacks in 2005 and 2006 by a group called Muslims Against Advertising

The advertising watchdog has confirmed that increasing numbers of posters are being torn down or painted over in predominantly Islamic areas.A website giving advice on how to vandalise billboards and listing potential targets has been set up by a group calling themselves Muslims Against Advertising (MAAD).

The campaign has gathered momentum since the Advertising Standards Authority banned an underwear advert from being sited near mosques.

Advertisements for perfume, hair dye, bras and television programmes are among those that have been attacked. Photographs of semi-dressed women are the most frequently targeted, with the offending body parts painted over or ripped off.

A poster advertising the Channel 4 programme Desperate Housewives is the most recent target; the images of two scantily-clad actresses have been torn from an East London billboard but three fully-dressed characters were left intact. Adverts bearing Dove’s “Real Women” adverts — six ordinary women pictured in their underwear — were painted over at several locations last year.

MAAD, based in Birmingham, gives an index of defaced adverts in the city, including Levi’s, Wonderbra, PaddyPower, a radio station and a strip club. It says on its website that it believes in “direct action” and “has paint and isn’t afraid to use it”, adding: “There is no longer any need to cringe as you walk past a sleazy poster, we’ll improve it.”

Iron Man 2 already in the works

Posted in Culture on May 5th, 2008 by gatordoug

$$$$$$$$$

Buoyed by the blockbuster success of “Iron Man” over the weekend, Marvel Studios on Monday announced plans for a string of superhero properties, including an “Iron Man” sequel set for April 2010.

“Iron Man 2″ will be followed in June 2010 by the big-screen adaptation of another of Marvel’s popular comic book characters, “Thor,” the mighty, hammer-wielding hero based on the Nordic god of the same name, the company said.

“Captain America” and “The Avengers” are next in line for the summer of 2011.

The nearly $99 million opening weekend of “Iron Man,” Marvel’s first fully self-financed production, gave Hollywood’s summer movie season a solid start and set the stage for a robust earnings report from the studio’s corporate parent, Marvel Entertainment Inc.

Talentless Rapper/thug wannabe, Kanye West threatens critic

Posted in Culture on May 3rd, 2008 by gatordoug

Stuff like this is why I do not understand the popularity of this jackass. No talent that I can see, and he thrpwsa tantrum when he is not praised, or doesn’t win some award. Just a few reasons I call him Little Bitch!

So that crazazy Kanye West blog rant that we told you about earlier? That was the nice version.

In the original post, K finished his disemboweling of Entertainment Weekly’s critic with this classy kicker: “Kill yourself Chris Willman!” referring to the EW writer who wrote the review.

But not long after he made the post, it seems that Kanye might have had second thoughts, because he took that line out. Of course, he left this beauty in: “F*** you and the whole f***ing staff!!!”

He avoided the brunt of the contents, stepped off stage for a few minutes, and returned to deliver his speech.The two rushed the stage with the pies, and then threw fliers into the crowd which aired their criticisms of Friedman’s views on the free market and climate change.

World leaders to target alcohol

Posted in Culture, The scurge of PC on April 20th, 2008 by gatordoug

You just had to know THIS was coming!

World leaders are launching a war on alcohol, using as their main weapon the millions of men, women and children whose lives have been destroyed by drink. The World Health Organisation’s global strategy will aim to match the success of campaigns which have made smokers feel guilty about the harm secondhand smoke does to others.

Rather than focusing on the damage drinkers are doing to their own bodies, the WHO wants to highlight the suffering of the innocent victims of drinkdrivers, domestic violence, child abuse and yobbery, this week’s New Scientist reports.

MASSAGE parlours are asking their female masseuses to padlock their skirts and pants to make it clear that sex is not on offer.But the move in an Indonesian town, has been opposed by the country’s women’s affairs minister, where massage parlours are often a front for prostitution.

TV footage and photos have shown several masseuses with small padlocks in the zip of their pants or skirts in recent days.

“The padlocking phenomena has been seen at various parlours and it is something we like,” said Imam Suryono, the head of the town’s public order authority.

Heartache! Thug wannabe rapper only a fake thug!

Posted in Culture, Music on April 16th, 2008 by gatordoug

The lovely and talented Michelle Malkin has the scoop!

Akon’s ad nauseum claims about his criminal career and resulting prison time have been, to an overwhelming extent, exaggerated, embellished, or wholly fabricated, an investigation by The Smoking Gun has revealed. Police, court, and corrections records reveal that the entertainer has created a fictionalized backstory that serves as the narrative anchor for his recorded tales of isolation, violence, woe, and regret. Akon has overdubbed his biography with the kind of grit and menace that he apparently believes music consumers desire from their hip-hop stars.While the performer’s rap sheet does include a half-dozen arrests, Akon has only been convicted of one felony, for gun possession. That 1998 New Jersey case ended with a guilty plea, for which the singer was sentenced to three years probation. Another 1998 bust, this one in suburban Atlanta, has been seized upon by Akon and transformed into the big case that purportedly sent him to prison (thanks to his snitching cohorts) for three fight-filled years. In reality, Akon was arrested for possession of a single stolen BMW and held in the DeKalb County jail for several months before prosecutors dropped all charges against him.

So there was no conviction. There was no prison term between 1999 and 2002. And he was never “facing 75 years,” as the singer claimed in one videotaped interview.

Akon’s invented tales appear to be part of a cynical marketing plan, but one that has met with remarkable success.

What does it say about rap, it’s “artists”, and it’s consumers, when being a thug is a big time selling point?

Your obligatory Moronn Leftist idea for the day!

Posted in Culture on April 16th, 2008 by gatordoug

A Bisexual God? What the Hell are they smoking at Huffington Post

The idea that God is solely male is the work of the Church Fathers who chose which gospel accounts to include in the official New Testament and excluded all the Gnostic Gospels that contain references to an androgynous God, and of the bishops who met at Constantinople in 381 and modified the Creed to say that the Holy Spirit is male. The idea that a Creator could be of only one sex is absurd on its face. Yet this nonsensical belief, which actually diminishes God, has been one of the main bases for the subordination of women and values associated with them — precisely the values taught by Jesus — throughout the history of the Church.

The bottom line is that none of the Church’s positions on women and sex come from the teachings of Jesus. All of them are the products of the very relativism that the current pope decries. The relativism of an earlier day has become the dogma of today.

A popular hymn asserts that the Church’s one foundation is Jesus Christ. The truth, however, is that since the early centuries of the religion that took up the name of Christianity, the Church’s one foundation has been male insecurity and its consequent subordination of women. Peter may have been the rock upon which Jesus sought to build his Church, but the rock upon which those who built Christianity in the early centuries after Jesus was the misogyny of their societies. Benedict XVI needs to lead the Church in a true revolution: a circling back to the actual teachings of Jesus and away from the perversions of those teachings by the early Church Fathers and their successors.

Good News! Overrated rock star endorses Obama

Posted in Culture, Politics on April 16th, 2008 by gatordoug

Whoa! Did I just call The Boss Overrated? YEP! WAY WAY overrated!

He has the depth, the reflectiveness, and the resilience to be our next President. He speaks to the America I’ve envisioned in my music for the past 35 years, a generous nation with a citizenry willing to tackle nuanced and complex problems, a country that’s interested in its collective destiny and in the potential of its gathered spirit. A place where “…nobody crowds you, and nobody goes it alone.”

At the moment, critics have tried to diminish Senator Obama through the exaggeration of certain of his comments and relationships. While these matters are worthy of some discussion, they have been ripped out of the context and fabric of the man’s life and vision, so well described in his excellent book, Dreams From My Father, often in order to distract us from discussing the real issues: war and peace, the fight for economic and racial justice, reaffirming our Constitution, and the protection and enhancement of our environment.

After the terrible damage done over the past eight years, a great American reclamation project needs to be undertaken. I believe that Senator Obama is the best candidate to lead that project and to lead us into the 21st Century with a renewed sense of moral purpose and of ourselves as Americans.

Is he serious? Is he actually saying America is NOT a generous nation? Is he actually saying Americans are NOT willing to tackle problems? Sheesh!

TAG! Kids game OUT at school

Posted in Culture, The scurge of PC on April 15th, 2008 by gatordoug

Oh no, here we go yet again! Another case of schools protecting children from being normal children!

Robyn Hooker, principal of Kent Gardens Elementary School, has told students they may no longer play tag during recess after determining that the game of chasing, dodging and yelling “You’re it!” had gotten out of hand. Hooker explained to parents in a letter this month that tag had become a game “of intense aggression.”The principal said that her goal is to keep students safe and that she hopes to restore tag (as well as touch football, also now on hold) after teachers and administrators review recess policies.The decision has touched off a debate among parents. Some call the restriction an example of overzealous rulemaking that fails to address root problems and undermines children’s development; others say it’s best to err on the side of caution.“We are regulating the fun out of normal childhood activity,” said Jan van Tol, father of a Kent Gardens sixth-grader. “In our effort to be so overprotective, we are not letting children be children.”

Oh Lord, how did millions of children who were lucky enough to miss the hypersensitivity bandwagon and PC EVER survive? I mean we played tag, tackle football, sandlot baseball a game called smear the you know what, and cowboys and Indians, and rode bikes without helmets, and yet we manage to function.

CAIR coming to the defense of Muslim school?

Posted in Culture, The scurge of PC on April 15th, 2008 by gatordoug

Remember the Minnesota tax-funded Muslim school? Well, it seems that the victicrats at CAIR are screaming hate crimes just as the school is being investigated by the state. I, like Michelle Malkin have to question the timing of this.

The Minnesota chapter of a national Islamic civil liberties group has asked the FBI and local law enforcement officers to investigate reported threats against a Twin Cities charter school as possible hate crimes, while a Jewish organization deplored the threats.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) made the request Monday after the director of Tarek ibn Ziyad Academy in Inver Grove Heights told police that he and the school had received threatening and harassing phone messages and e-mails.

The group is concerned about the safety of the school’s students, many of whom are Muslim, said CAIR chapter coordinator Chris Schumacher. Tagging the threats as possible hate crimes also makes it clear that prejudice could have prompted them, and “we wanted to bring that to light in case that wasn’t already obvious to people,” he said.

Surely if threats have been made, they ought to be investigated. The trouble is that CAIR, and other have, shall we say, a history of crying wolf. Power Line and Daniel Pipes and Michelle Malkin have all documented.

Latest stupid law-Visual Sexual Aggression?

Posted in Culture, Guns self-defense and liberty on April 14th, 2008 by gatordoug

Well intended? Surely! But then again so are zero-tolerance rules in our schools. This bill is far too broad, given our compete lack of common sense as a society. Ever stood in line at the grocery store and waved or smiled at a toddler in the cart in front of you? Ever watched kids play? Yeah, you VISUAL SEXUAL HARASSER YOU!

A bill that passed the House last month aims to strengthen the crime of visual sexual aggression against children, according to state Rep. Dawn Hill, D-York.Her involvement started when Ogunquit Police Lt. David Alexander was called to a local beach to deal with a man who appeared to be observing children entering the community bathrooms. Because the state statute prevents arrests for visual sexual aggression of a child in a public place, Alexander said he and his fellow officer could only ask the man to move along.“There was no violation of law that we could enforce. There was nothing we could charge him with,” Alexander said.He attended a talk with Hill a week later and brought the case to her attention. Hill pledged to do what she could, Alexander said, and the result was a change through the Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee in the House, which made the law applicable in both private and public places….

Under the bill, if someone is arrested for viewing children in a public place, it would be a Class D felony if the child is between 12 to 14 years old and a Class C felony if the child is under 12, according to Alexander.

Hill said she believes the move was necessary to correct what she called a “loophole” in the state’s criminal law statutes.

Think such a law would work? Me neither! How about a law that puts child molesters in jail FOREVER!

Rev. Wright smears Founders

Posted in Culture, Race Pimping on April 13th, 2008 by gatordoug

Yes, he is disturbing, but the number of people who cheer his hateful ignorance is truly scary. H/T LGF!

And while Wright made no mention of terrorism, he did revisit the topic of America’s mistreatment of blacks, saying America’s founding fathers “planted slavery and white supremacy in the DNA of this republic,” and adding that Thomas Jefferson wrote, “ ‘God would punish America for the sin of slavery.’ I guess that makes Thomas Jefferson unpatriotic,” he said to the cheers of the congregation.

Reflecting on the late Pincham, Wright said his faith “was not the jingoistic, chauvinistic ‘you’re either with us or against us’ demonizing kind of faith.” Wright said Pincham was friends with “Jews, Muslims, rabbis, imams, fathers in the Catholic church and [Louis] Farrakhan in the Islamic faith.”

Escalating into full-preaching mode, Wright thundered, “Fox News can’t understand that. [Bill] O’Reilly will never get that. Sean Hannity’s stupid fantasy will keep him forever stuck on stupid when it comes to comprehending how you can love a brother who does not believe what you believe. [Pincham’s] faith was a faith in a God who loved the whole world not just one country or one creed.”

Yes, really focus on his words. He spews hate, then bemoans the hate of others? He demonizes those who hold different views then whines about loving those you disagree with?
