Reflections From a Murky Pond

No American with a shred of reason has any doubts that Obama learned politics in Chicago. So much of his political history and methodology are testament to that unsavory school of applied political science.

Part of the problem we’re facing though is that he apparently learned math in Chicago as well…

Back in July, 2009, Obama spoke in Cape Coast, Ghana about the problems facing businesses there:

No business wants to invest in a place where the government skims 20 percent off the top.

That’s Chicago math. It’s bad when the goons in Africa shakedown businesses for 20% but it’s good when his boys shakedown businesses for 35%. In Ghana it’s corruption and confiscatory taxes; in the US under the Obama Posse it’s just “good bidnez.”

For a long time America reveled in a halcyon dream in which we felt safe and sheltered from much of the evil that stalked the Earth.

But we forgot that those halcyon days whose image we clung to were always only a brief respite between the storms of the lasting winter of discontent, strife, and savagery.

Then we were brutally awakened on the morning of September 11, 2001.

Now we must put aside our love of those stolen dreams and live and fight in the waking world. When the work is done and all our enemies and those who would support or avenge them lay dead and unmourned it will be time for rest, sleep, and dreaming.

Freedom, especially women’s freedom from the vile and utter degradation, exploitation, and enslavement of Islam, is always a beautiful thing. Sometime though, that freedom and individuals’ bids to achieve it are more beautiful than others.

A particularly poignant case in point is the Turkish-German daytime television star, Sila Sahin’s extraordinarily beautiful bid for freedom from the constraints of Muslim “society.”

She has given her all to achieve a freedom.

Sila Sahin, who plays Ayla Özgül in the German soap opera, Gute Zeiten, Schlechte Zeiten (Good Times, Bad Times) posed for the German edition of Playboy in a bid for freedom from the constraints of Muslim “Society” and the Shari’a-based oppression of her family.

And it was truly a bid for freedom and a protest against the repression and misogyny endemic to the Muslim World.

Posing provocatively on the cover of German Playboy magazine with one breast exposed, Sahin seems to be sending a clear and deliberate message to her conservative Turkish family.

“I did it because I wanted to be free at last. These photographs are a liberation from the restrictions of my childhood,” she said.

Her family has, unsurprisingly, reacted with horror, and her mother has cut off all contact with the actress.

“My mother is still angry. It will be even more difficult with my grandparents, my aunts and my uncles,” she said on the website devoted to her television soap.

She has, however, managed to talk to her actor father, who expressed concern over the pressure she will inevitably face from the Muslim community.

Frankly, I’m unsure of Sahin’s father’s motivation for his apparent moderation. It could be – and I hope it is so – that he truly is evolved enough to support his daughter’s choice of freedom, or it could be that disowning her would lose him access to her income, something that he would control under Shari’a until Sila’s marriage.

He’s absolutely right about one thing though; Sila Sahin needs to be worried about the response of the Muslim “community.” They have a long and brutal history of violent reprisals against women who behave in any manner other than utter subservience. Those women who aren’t murdered often wish that they had been.

I’d like to think that, living in the Civilized World, Sila Sahin would be safe from the more savage forms of Muslim reprisal. That’s hardly a foregone conclusion though, as women such as Ayaan Hirsi Ali can attest. Hence, the twenty-five year old actress has placed herself at risk.

Sila Sahin’s choosing to pose for Playboy was certainly a brave and extremely beautiful bid for freedom. We must all just hope that she doesn’t pay too high of a price for it.

One of the relatively common memes in porn is depicting women as being passionate to the point of being animalistic and feral. An oft-repeated display of this is that of hot babes tearing off their clothes.

Of course it’s important to remember that, while a picture is worth a thousand words, it doesn’t always convey the actual truth. The are other explanations for a hottie seeming to be tearing off her won clothes…

She’s Not Crazy; She’s Just Mormon

See; she’s not being shown as passionate, animalistic or feral. This Asian hottie is just auditioning for a Mormon porn magazine or website. 😉

The filthy traitors of Fred Phelps’ Westboro Baptist Church tried their shit again. This time, however, they made the mistake of doing some place where their are people who love America and respect her troops don’t tolerate this sort of disgusting behavior.

The good and patriotic folk of Rankin County, MS made sure that the funeral of USMC Staff Sgt. Jason Rogers, who was KIA in Afghanistan on April 7, was buried in Brandon, MS without the presence of Phelp’s misborn brood of filth.

This is a taste of how you handle these traitors:

A couple of days before, one of them ran his mouth at a Brandon gas station and got his ass waxed. Police were called and the beaten man could not give much of a description of who beat him. When they canvassed the station and spoke to the large crowd that had gathered around, no one seemed to remember anything about what had happened.

Rankin County handled this thing perfectly. There were many things that were put into place that most will never know about and at great expense to the county.

Most of the morons never made it out of their hotel parking lot. It seems that certain Rankin county pickup trucks were parked directly behind any car that had Kansas plates in the hotel parking lot and the drivers mysteriously disappeared until after the funeral was over. Police were called but their wrecker service was running behind and it was going to be a few hours before they could tow the trucks so the Kansas plated cars could get out.

A few made it to the funeral but were ushered away to be questioned about a crime they might have possibly been involved in. Turns out, after a few hours of questioning, that they were not involved and they were allowed to go on about their business.

That’s a small and overly restrained taste of how Americans, hard-working Americans, Americans who love their nation and her troops can and must deal with groups like Westboro Baptist.

Our laws cannot stop the creatures of Westboro Baptist’s treasonous attacks upon our fallen troops and their families. Indeed, Americans cannot allow the legislators to stop Phelps and his ilk because no law could be written to stop them that would not be later abused to our detriment. That being the case, this is matter that we, the People must handle on own without recourse to- or concern for the law. To do less would make us complicit in treason and no better than these filth.

If Americans are going to effective in permanently stopping Westboro Baptist Church then every single member of the Phelps family unto the least misborn crotch-dropping must be classed as a valid and necessary target, as are every single one of their followers and any brats that they have spawned.

Those who disagree with the American people’s duty to remove Westboro Baptist through extra-judicial means are complicit in Phelps’ treason.

Counsel them to not interfere in any chosen operations. If they are either weak or wise enough to comply, ignore them and leave them be. If they do not comply and choose to lend aid and comfort to the vermin of Westboro Baptist Church, then they have sided against America and are also valid and necessary targets.

To the fine American people of Rankin County, MS I say, “Good job!” It gladdens my heart to see patriots who understand that, even as our soldiers are tasked with defending us at home from foreign enemies, we are charged with defending them and their families from domestic enemies.
