As defined at the reference,
“The Peter Principle states that "in a hierarchy every employee tends to rise to his level of incompetence", meaning that employees tend to be promoted until they reach a position at which they cannot work competently. It was formulated by Dr. Laurence J. Peter and Raymond Hull in their 1969 book The Peter Principle, a humorous [1] treatise which also introduced the "salutary science of hierarchiology”

 

Has there even been a more profound example of the Peter Principle than the beleaguered Anthony Weiner?

What’s wrong with this picture?

Posted on The Vancouver Sun-By Alex Roslin, For Postmedia News-On June 3, 2011:

It’s Saturday night, and you want to catch the latest summer blockbuster. You do a quick Google search to find the venue and right time, and off you go to enjoy some mindless fun.

Meanwhile, your Internet search has just helped kill the planet. Depending on how long you took and what sites you visited, your search caused the emission of one to 10 grams of carbon into the atmosphere, contributing to global warming.

Sure, it’s not a lot on its own — but add up all of the more than one billion daily Google searches, throw in 60 million Facebook status updates each day, 50 million daily tweets and 250 billion emails per day, and you’re making a serious dent in some Greenland glaciers.

The Internet has long promised a more efficient and greener world. We save on paper and mailing by sending an email. We can telecommute instead of driving to work. We can have a meeting by teleconference instead of flying to another city.

Ironically, despite the web’s green promise, this explosion of data has turned the Internet into one of the planet’s fastest-growing sources of carbon emissions. The Internet now consumes two to three per cent of the world’s electricity.

If the Internet was a country, it would be the planet’s fifth-biggest consumer of power, ahead of India and Germany. The Internet’s power needs now rival those of the aviation industry and are expected to nearly double by 2020.

“The Internet pollutes, but people don’t understand why it pollutes. It’s very, very power-hungry, and we have to reduce its carbon footprint,” said Mohamed Cheriet, a green IT expert and professor in the engineering and automation department at Montreal’s Ecole de Technologie Superieure (ETS).

The bulk of all this energy is gobbled up by a fast-growing network of huge “server farms” or data centres that form the backbone of the Internet. They are hush-hush facilities, some the size of five Wal-Marts, packed from floor to ceiling with tens of thousands of computers.

These are the computers that make the Internet run — routing traffic and storing much of those ever-expanding heaps of data.

Say you do a Google search. Your query kicks into action about 1,000 servers at various Google data centres. Those computers scan billions of web pages already in Google’s archives and spit out an answer.

Total time elapsed: 0.2 seconds on average. Meanwhile, Google’s data centres are also constantly combing the Internet to update their archives of web pages.

All those computers have a voracious appetite for energy, especially for cooling equipment to prevent overheating.

Apple’s 46,000-square-metre iDataCenter is set to open in North Carolina this spring with a price tag of $1 billion U.S.. It will use an estimated 100 megawatts of power — as much as about 100,000 Canadian homes.

Apple’s mega-facility is part of a cluster of gigantic new data centres coming on line in North Carolina that are powered largely by cheap and highly polluting coal power. Google has a 44,000-square-metre data centre in the state that eventually will consume an estimated 60 to 100 MW. Facebook has a 28,000-square-metre facility under construction there that will eat up 40 MW.

Greenpeace calls the three facilities “North Carolina’s dirty data triangle.” Coal, it says, is the most polluting of all fossil fuels and the world’s single largest source of greenhouse gas emissions.

“The technologies of the 21st century are still largely powered by the dirty coal power of the past,” the environmental group said in a report card on the IT sector in April, titled How Dirty is Your Power?

“People are pretty concerned about it,” David Kessler, a Greenpeace spokesman in San Francisco.

In Lenoir, North Carolina, Google’s $600-million, super-sized data centre offers employees the kind of unusual perks that were the hallmark of the high-flying dot-com era.

But Google chose Lenoir for more than just some nice handouts. It also wanted cheap electricity for those power-hungry servers.

North Carolina offers industrial customers one of the lowest electricity rates in the U.S. — 5.8 cents per kilowatt hour, versus the U.S. average of 6.7 cents.

It just so happens that the state’s electricity is also some of the dirtiest in the country. Nearly two-thirds of the state’s electricity comes from coal.

The IT industry is now responding by starting to improve the energy efficiency of its data centres.

But that’s not enough, said Bill St. Arnaud, an engineer and green IT consultant in Ottawa. The Internet is growing so fast, he said, it’s overtaking such efficiency gains. Besides, efficiency improvements alone won’t wean the IT industry from using inexpensive and polluting coal, he said.

The real solution, he said, is for governments to impose measures like carbon taxes and emissions caps that make dirty energy less attractive financially.

“The planet is warming up, and it’s going to get very bad. We need a price on carbon. It’s the only way to get people to move off coal because coal is currently so cheap,” he said.

“We have to move from this fossil fuel fiesta to a smarter economy.”

Some seeking to reduce the Internet’s carbon footprint point to a homegrown solution: the GreenStar Network.

GreenStar, which is based at Montreal’s ETS, is an alternative Internet that runs on small data centres powered solely by cleaner renewable energy, like wind, solar and hydroelectric power.

GreenStar is growing quickly because of the huge worldwide demand for green IT, St. Arnaud said. Since being launched last fall with a core of five green data centres in Canada, the network has expanded to include 15 other data centres in Europe and the U.S., mostly at universities and a few small industrial partners. Others are planned for China and Africa.

“Our biggest problem is meeting demand. We’ve demonstrated that we can build an Internet that’s as reliable as the normal Internet, but without using dirty energy,” St. Arnaud said.

The province says the market for green IT will be worth $600 billion annually worldwide by 2013.”

Angry Flash Mobs, Brought to You by Obama!

What’s wrong with this picture?

Posted on Floyd Reports-By Floyd Brown and Mary Beth Brown-On June 10, 2011:

 “Some of the best TV in America comes and goes too quickly. This past year we enjoyed the short-lived FOX police drama, Chicago Code. The show featured the battle for police resources in a city run by corrupt politicians with little more desire than to milk the system for perks, money, and power. However, we didn’t expect to watch its sequel as a reality horror show on the nightly news.

The specter of mobs of marauding youths beating random Chicago residents and visitors makes us all feel vulnerable. With apprehension, citizens watch over their shoulders when on the street to see if they are next. The issues raised by this early summer nightmare are serious and need to be addressed.

First, this Obama recession/depression has devastated inner city job creation. Only 54,000 jobs were added in May as the Obama recovery is in slow-motion, turning to the Obama double dip recession. There are still at least 14 million U.S. workers who can’t find jobs. When you add part-time or underemployed workers who want full-time jobs, the total rises to 30.6 million who want more economic opportunity.

Blacks and inner city youth are the hardest hit by Obama’s policies. According to the U.S. Department of Labor the percentage of black adult men with a job has fallen below 60 percent for the first time. The latest unemployment rate for black men is 16.1 percent. These unemployment numbers rocket higher when you study those formerly in jail or living in the most economically depressed big city neighborhoods like those in Chicago, formerly represented by Barack Obama.

According to the congressional Joint Economic Committee report: “The youth unemployment rate of 19.6% is the highest for the age group since the government began tracking the data in 1947.” In the U.S. 16-24 year-olds make up 13 percent of the labor force, but they represent 26 percent of the unemployed, according to the JEC report.

After the attacks, the liberal Democratic political machine in Chicago moved quickly to limit the PR damage. Obama’s former chief of staff and current mayor of Chicago, Rahm Emanuel, came out swinging. “I want all the young men that were involved in this,” Emanuel said. “Because I want to be very clear up front that as it relates to this crime, the full force of the law enforcement community and justice system will deal with it.”

It strikes us as ironic that these same liberal politicians who have spent a career stifling economic freedom and stealing opportunity from these youths, are now at the forefront of the parade seeking their quick incarceration.

Chicago business regulations are so prohibitive and Illinois taxes are so exorbitant that it doesn’t take a rocket scientist to understand why business job creators are fleeing to first Texas and then oversees. These young people need hope. Hope comes in the form of a job, a wage, a living, and a life.

As we watched the coverage of the “flash mobs” unfold, we were taken aback by the loot stolen. This paragraph from the Chicago Tribune is a good illustration:

Moments after a group of teens wrestled with Singer over his iPad and BlackBerry, members of the same mob attacked a 42-year-old doctor visiting from Japan. That doctor was beaten and robbed of his iPod Touch while walking in the 700 block of North Lake Shore Drive, authorities said.

These thugs are after the status symbols of wealth and Apple iPad or Blackberry.

These young people watch the same TV as all of us. They are grabbing for a symbol of the American dream. Given opportunity for a job, they could have these symbols legitimately, but not as long as they are being held back by a political establishment that is too intent on its own status. These ultra-liberals are crushing the American dream in their misguided drive to give us a European socialist utopia.

The Chicago streets are not the only place with robbing going on. Obama is stealing their dreams and their future.”

What’s wrong with this picture?

Posted on WND.com-By Aaron Klein-On June 9, 2011:

The founders of a radical group that teaches tactics of direct action, confrontation and intimidation were among the main speakers at a union convention at which one leader called for opposing “right-wing threats to dismantle the Middle Class.”

Heather Booth, director of a Saul Alinsky-style community organizing group, the Midwest Academy, was among the main speakers at the “2011 State Battles Summit,” held this week at the Hyatt Regency Capitol Hill Hotel in Washington, D.C.

Booth’s husband, Paul, also was a speaker at the union summit. Paul Booth is a co-founder of Midwest Academy.

The four-day summit, which ended yesterday, was organized by the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, or AFSCME, with participation from the AFL-CIO, the nation’s largest union.

See the details of what an Alinsky agenda can do in America, in “Subversion Inc.” by Matthew Vadum.

“We stand with you as you have stood with us,” Wade Henderson, president of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, told AFSCME activists during the final day of the summit.

Henderson noted that the civil rights movement exists partly “because of the efforts of the labor movement,” and he noted the two now stand together as a coalition to “oppose right-wing threats to dismantle the middle class.”

An official schedule for the event, obtained by WND, declared: “Our union is under unprecedented attack in every state. Extremist politicians want to weaken us as we head into 2012. Their tactics include budget cuts, layoffs, privatization and the denial of our very collective bargaining rights.”

Continued the flyer: “New challenges require new energy and new thinking. We encourage union activists to attend this conference and bring their creative ideas on how to overcome the challenges ahead.”

Heather Booth participated in a panel entitled, “Our Message, Alliances and Best Practices.”

Midwest co-founder Paul Booth delivered the opening remarks for the union conference.

Another speaker at the union event was John Podesta, who co-chaired President Obama’s transition team.

Podesta is president of the Center for American Progress, which is heavily influential in advising the White House. The Center is funded by philanthropist George Soros.

Mideast revolutions coming U.S.?

Citizen Action of Wisconsin, an arm of Booth’s Midwest Academy, is part of the Moving Wisconsin Forward movement, one of the main organizers of the major Wisconsin protests this past February, as WND first reported.

Those protests were in opposition to Gov. Scott Walker’s proposal for most state workers to pay 12 percent of their health care premiums and 5.8 percent of their salary toward their own pensions.

Walker’s proposal reportedly would save $300 million in the next two years for a state that faces a financial crisis amid a $3.6 billion deficit.

WND reported at the time speakers at those rallies likened the Wisconsin protests to the ongoing revolutions in the Middle East and North Africa while calling for similar uprisings in the U.S.

Just this week, Democrat strategist James Carville warned the country’s economic woes could lead to “civil unrest.”

“People, you know, if it continues, we’re going to start to see civil unrest in this country. I hate to say that, but I think it’s imminently possible,” he said in an interview with “Imus in the Morning” on 77-WABC Radio.

Obama links, 'Redistribution of Wealth and Power':

Obama himself once funded Midwest Academy. He has been closely tied to Heather Booth.

Booth has stated building a “progressive majority” would help for “a fair distribution of wealth and power and opportunity.”

She founded Midwest in the 1970s with her husband, Paul, a founder and the former national secretary of Students for a Democratic Society, the radical 1960s anti-war movement from which William Ayers’ domestic Weather Underground terrorist organization splintered.

The Woods Fund, a nonprofit on which Obama served as paid director from 1999 to December 2002, provided capital to the Midwest Academy. WND was first to report Obama sat on the Woods Fund board alongside Ayers.

In 1999, Booth’s Midwest Academy received $75,000 from the Woods Fund. In 2002, with Obama still serving on the Woods Fund, Midwest received another $23,500 for its Young Organizers Development Program.

Midwest describes itself as “one of the nation’s oldest and best-known schools for community organizations, citizen organizations and individuals committed to progressive social change.”

It later morphed into a national organizing institute for an emerging network of organizations known as Citizen Action.

Discover the Networks describes Midwest as “teach[ing] tactics of direct action, confrontation and intimidation.”

WND first reported the executive director of an activist organization that taught Alinsky’s tactics of direct action, confrontation and intimidation was part of the team that developed volunteers for President Obama’s 2008 campaign.

Jackie Kendall, executive director of the Midwest Academy, was on the team that developed and delivered the first Camp Obama training for volunteers aiding Obama’s campaign through the 2008 Iowa Caucuses.

Camp Obama was a two-to-four day intensive course run in conjunction with Obama’s campaign aimed at training volunteers to become activists to help Obama win the presidential election.

Also, in 1998, Obama participated on a panel discussion praising Alinsky alongside Heather Booth, herself a dedicated disciple of Alinsky.

The panel discussion following the opening performance in Chicago of the play “The Love Song of Saul Alinsky,” a work described by the Chicago Sun-Times as “bringing to life one of America’s greatest community organizers.”

Obama participated in the discussion alongside other Alinskyites, including political analyst Aaron Freeman, Don Turner of the Chicago Federation of Labor and Northwestern University history professor Charles Paine.

“Alinsky had so much fire burning within,” stated local actor Gary Houston, who portrayed Alinsky in the play. “There was a lot of complexity to him. Yet he was a really cool character.”

'Communist fellow traveler':

Former 1960s radical and FrontPageMagazine Editor David Horowitz describes Alinsky as the “communist/Marxist fellow-traveler who helped establish the dual political tactics of confrontation and infiltration that characterized the 1960s and have remained central to all subsequent revolutionary movements in the United States.”

Horowitz writes in his 2009 pamphlet “Barack Obama’s Rules for Revolution. The Alinsky Model”: “The strategy of working within the system until you can accumulate enough power to destroy it was what ‘60s radicals called ‘boring from within.’ … Like termites, they set about to eat away at the foundations of the building in expectation that one day they could cause it to collapse.”

In a letter to the editor of the Boston Globe, Alinsky’s son praised Obama for stirring up the masses at the 2008 Democratic National Convention “Saul Alinsky style,” saying, “Obama learned his lesson well.”

The letter, signed L. David Alinsky, closed with, “I am proud to see that my father’s model for organizing is being applied successfully.”

Forty-eight percent say that another Great Depression is likely to occur in the next year – the highest that figure has ever reached.

The survey also indicates that just under half live in a household where someone has lost a job or are worried that unemployment may hit them in the near future. The poll was conducted starting Friday, when the Labor Department reported that the nation’s jobless rate edged up to 9.1 percent.

“The poll reminded respondents that during the Depression in the 1930s, roughly one in four workers were unemployed, banks failed, and millions of Americans were homeless or unable to feed their families,” says Holland. “And even with that reminder, nearly half said that another depression was likely in the next 12 months. That’s not just economic pessimism – that’s economic fatalism.”

According to the survey, more than eight in ten Americans say that the economy is in poor shape, a number that has stubbornly remained at that level since March.

Legendary investor Jim Rogers, CEO of Rogers Holdings, offered a very glum outlook on the U.S. economy yesterday. According to him, we’re headed for a crisis worse than 2008, the Chinese Yuan will soon be safer than the dollar, and Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke will probably institute another round of money-printing, or QE3.

“The debts that are in this country are skyrocketing,” he told CNBC. “In the last three years the government has spent staggering amounts of money and the Federal Reserve is taking on staggering amounts of debt.

“When the problems arise next time…what are they going to do?

They can’t quadruple the debt again. They cannot print that much more money. It’s gonna be worse the next time around.”

He later added, “The U.S. is the largest debtor nation in the history of the world. The debts are going through the roof. Would you keep lending money to somebody who’s spending money and not doing anything about it? No you wouldn’t.”

Posted on NBC Chicago-By Marcus Riley-On June 8, 2011:

“We know of at least one Chicago rapper who won’t be getting an invite to the White House anytime soon.

Lupe Fiasco called out President Barack Obama this week, calling his fellow Chicagoan “the biggest terrorist.”

The comments came in an interview with CBS News Tuesday while discussing the political content of his music.

“My fight against terrorism, to me, the biggest terrorist is Obama in the United States of America. I’m trying to fight the terrorism that’s actually causing the other forms of terrorism. You know, the root cause of terrorism is the stuff the U.S. government allows to happen. The foreign policies that we have in place in different countries that inspire people to become terrorists.”

The controversy is markedly different from another dustup last month involving Chicago rapper, Common, whose invitation to a White House poetry reading caused some conservatives to cry foul.

And it’s not the only shots the president has taken this week.

Republican presidential candidate Tim Pawlenty stopped through Chicago Tuesday and said Obama “needs to go to rehab” in reference to the economic recovery.

Fiasco will be performing in Chicago Saturday at the B96 Summer Bash.”

NY Times:   The Covert American War in Yemen
Now Sees Intensified Drone and Fighter Jet Attacks
 
 
            Sometimes it’s difficult to understand the logic of Barack Obama. In the last week he’s variously talked about “headwinds,” “bumps in the road” “nasty challenges,” “rugged terrain” and “blips” upsetting the nation’s “ongoing recovery.”  He’s labeled some of those headwinds** as:  the crisis in Japan, high oil prices, the impending debt limit crisis and instability in the Middle East. Of course, Mr. Obama gets much of the blame for the high oil prices since he’s taken to banning oil drilling in the Gulf region and virtually everywhere offshore and inland; and he and the Democratic Party get most all the blame for the debt limit crisis since they’ve raised the nation’s debt over $5 Trillion virtually all by themselves; but the big surprise is his comment about instability in the Middle East. 
Rather than pouring calming oil on the waters, it seems our Nobel Peace Prize “earning” president has almost single-handedly done everything imaginable to ratchet up the tension in the ever-volatile Middle East and other Islamic lands. It seems now that all Mr. Obama’s rah-rah-siss-boom-bah for the so-called “Arab Spring” has backfired in Yemen.
            Besides initiating actions shaking the confidence of our only strong and predictable Middle East ally (Israel) for roughly twenty-seven consecutive months now high-li ‘er low-lighted by his speech at the end of May, Mr. Obama has been leading the cheerleading for the ill-named Arab Spring “democratic revolutions,” going so far as to label the Tunisian man set afire after dousing himself with gasoline as “another Rosa Parks.” Mr. Obama has been openly rooting for the mobs in the streets rather than for the peacekeepers long in office. Since in Egypt, long regarded as the most advanced of the Muslim states, a November, 2009 poll found that 87% of the populace favored Sharia Law; beheading of apostates; lopping off a thief’s hand; stoning of adulterers; and the requirement of the burkha and other huge restrictions on female behavior; it seems that so-called democracy and real freedom do not and will not co-exist.  In other words, it’s highly likely that the changes Mr. Obama is spurring on will NOT include freedom or economic improvement for the people of these countries but will include the installation of more Jihadocracies such as Iran (the world’s #1 exporter of terrorism).
            Now besides the open wars in Afghanistan and Iran; thanks to the New York Times we now know that our government has involved us in covert wars in Libya and Yemen. In Libya (actually our War #4, and NOT #3 since the covert war in Yemen started two years earlier and outranks Libya “in seniority” as War #3) Obama has continued the air strikes and no longer bothers to deny the reports of American “boots on the ground” there as we’re now entering into the fourth week since the War Powers act on that involvement expired, with nary an official sentence from the Oval Office to Congress. Moammar Gaddafi in Libya is easily the third worst national leader in the area behind #1 President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in Iran and  #2 Dictator Assad in Syria.   So none of the “strongmen” in power in these Middle Eastern countries are wonderful, but they all did keep peace; respect the lives and rights and religion of minority Jews and Christians and other faiths in their lands; and leave Israel alone – since the most popular chant in Egypt now is “Kill the Jews, Kill the Jews,” one might conjecture that Obama got his wish and now we’re all going to suffer.
In Yemen, according to the latest information generated by the Times, we have been waging a covert war since 2009 with American “boots on the ground” for virtually the entire time. But in recent weeks the use of drone attacks and jet fighter attacks has intensified markedly according to the paper.   Up until now and the Times’ revelations, the large extent of the war in Yemen had been the single most successful and closely-guarded secret of the Obama administration.
While the senior leadership of Al Qaeda has lost arguably its two top leaders in six weeks and is lying low all over Pakistan: Yemen has, of course, been the prime source of the Al Qaeda Middle Eastern operations aimed at America for the last few years. The ex-American Anwar Awlaki who inspired the failed “air cargo attack,” “the underwear bomber,” and “Times Square bomber” and the successful attacks on Ft. Hood, Texas and upon an Arkansas Army recruiting station^^ has been the target for at least two unsuccessful drone strikes in the last year. The infamous Arab Spring “democratic revolution” and growing power vacuum in Yemen has allowed militants to consolidate as they’ve advanced in the south and Yemeni soldiers have retreated toward their Capitol in Sana. 
The Times initially learned about the covert war in Yemen after details came out following the successful jet-fighter strike last Friday which killed Abu Ali al-Harithi, a mid-level Qaeda operative, and several other militant suspects in a strike in southern Yemen.  Weeks earlier, following the killing of Usama Bin Laden and capture of information at his compound in Pakistan, drone aircraft fired missiles aimed at Anwar al-Awlaki, the radical American-born cleric whom the United States government has tried to kill for roughly the last fifteen months. Strikes had been paused for at least half a year because of several bungled attacks blamed upon faulty information. CIA operatives in Yemen have now more openly championed American involvement against Al Qaeda leaders among the rebels as a way to keep Al Qaeda from consolidating itself as the eventual rebel leaders. The Times report also informed us:
 “Officials in Washington said that the American and Saudi spy services had been receiving more information — from electronic eavesdropping and informants — about the possible locations of militants. A senior Pentagon official, speaking only on condition of anonymity, said on Wednesday that using force against militants in Yemen was further complicated by the fact that Qaeda operatives have mingled with other rebels and antigovernment militants, making it harder for the United States to attack without the appearance of picking sides.
“The American campaign in Yemen is led by the Pentagon’s Joint Special Operations Command, and is closely coordinated with the Central Intelligence Agency. Teams of American military and intelligence operatives have acommand post in Sana, the Yemeni capital, to track intelligence about militants in Yemen and plot future strikes.
“Concerned that support for the campaign could wane if the government of Yemen’s authoritarian president, Ali Abdullah Saleh, were to fall, the United States ambassador in Yemen has met recently with leaders of the opposition, partly to make the case for continuing American operations. Officials in Washington said that opposition leaders have told the ambassador, Gerald M. Feierstein, that operations against Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula should continue regardless of who wins the power struggle in Sana.
 
            The Yemeni President Saleh incurred severe wounds from a rocket attack upon the presidential compound last week and was evacuated to a Saudi hospital. News of the evacuation inspired great rebel celebrations and an upswing in military action.   Saleh’s military have retreated to better protect the Capitol and the intensification of American strikes upon Al Qaeda targets have coincided. American CIA operatives have expressed two major worries amid the action boiling over in Yemen: 1) Their attacks upon Al Qaeda will be misconstrued as support for Saleh and 2) The information pipeline could get “corrupted” by Saleh so that attacks meant to be pinpointed upon Al Qaeda could be called in against purely rebel targets or against Saleh’s military . . . and as a result of either of these situations, the appearance of “taking sides” might be created. In any cases, for the war-mongers among us, these are truly halcyon days.

^^  The 2009 Little Rock recruiting office shooting on June 1, 2009, when a Muslim convert Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad opened fire with a rifle in a drive-by shooting on soldiers in front of a U.S. Army and military recruiting office.   The Obama administration, as in the Fort Hood shooting, kept almost totally out of the news that this was a Jihad attack by a Muslim in contact with Al Qaeda in Yemen and Awlaki.  The homegrown terroris killed Private William Long, and wounded Private Quinton Ezeagwula.  After arrest, Muhammad freely acknowledged shooting the men; that he had intended to kill as many Army personnel as possible as well as Jews if he could have found any.  According to Wikipedia, an SKS rifle, a Mossberg International 702 rifle, two handguns, 562 rounds of ammunition, and military books were in his car when arrested. The attack was justified he said according to Islamic Laws and the Islamic Religion. Jihad—to fight those who wage war on Islam and Muslims.  He had recently returned from 16 months in Yemen, and it was the first of two gunfire attacks in 2009 on US military facilities by Muslims with links to radical clerics in Yemen, who were upset at U.S. military actions in Iraq and Afghanistan.
 
       Muhammad is charged with capital murder and attempted capital murder, 10 counts of unlawful discharge of a weapon, 15 counts of engaging in a terrorist act.  Muhammad also was to be tried for three counts of initiating violence while in jail.  The trial scheduled for February 23, 2011 is now set for July 10, 2011.

Posted on The Weekly Standard-By DANIEL HALPER-On June 9, 2011:

“In anticipation of today’s Senate confirmation hearing for Defense secretary nominee Leon Panetta, a list of ten questions on the future of U.S. defense spending priorities was jointly released by the American Enterprise Institute, the Foreign Policy Initiative, and the Heritage Foundation earlier this week. 

Here's the full text:

(1) Outgoing Secretary of Defense Robert Gates said on May 24, 2011:  “I have long believed, and I still do, that the defense budget, however large it may be, is not the cause of this country’s fiscal woes.”

  • Do you agree with Secretary Gates’ statement?  If so, what is the logic for cutting defense spending even further than it already has been so far during wartime?  Should defense be given higher priority than other areas of federal spending?

(2) The bipartisan Quadrennial Defense Review (QDR) Independent Panel—chaired by former Defense Secretary William Perry and former National Security Advisor Stephen Hadley—concluded that “the Department of Defense now faces the urgent need to recapitalize large parts of the force.  Although this is a long-standing problem, we believe the Department needs to come to grips with this requirement…. Meeting the crucial requirements of modernization will require a substantial and immediate additional investment that is sustained through the long term.”

  • Do you agree with the panel that there is an urgent problem?  If not, why not?  If so, how is the modernization challenge to be addressed with a defense budget that is flat or declining?

(3) Secretary Gates stated in a speech on May 24, 2011 that “a smaller military, no matter how superb, will be able to go to fewer places and be able to do fewer things.”

  • Presuming that President Obama’s additional proposed cuts will include a reduction in the size of America’s armed forces, what “places” would you recommend that we forego going to and what “things” would you recommend that the American military stop doing?

(4) Secretary Gates has stated that ill-conceived cuts to defense spending could increase America’s vulnerability in a “complex and unpredictable security environment” and, in the same spirit, that “the ultimate guarantee against the success of aggressors, dictators, and terrorists in the 21st century, as in the 20th, is hard power—the size, strength, and global reach of the United States military.”

  • Do you agree with Secretary Gates’ assessment of the dangers incurred by cuts in military spending and the role of hard power in keeping the peace? And if so, how are those views to be squared with President Obama’s proposal to cut America’s base defense budget (as a percentage of America’s GDP) to its lowest point in more than 60 years?

(5) The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Admiral Michael Mullen, recommended on June 2, 2011 that when implementing President Obama’s plan to cut $400 billion from security spending, savings should be identified in military pay and benefits before making cuts to “force structure” (i.e. weapons programs, equipment and the number of personnel in uniform).

  • Do you agree with Admiral Mullen’s recommendations?

(6) As a chief architect of the defense budget drawdown in the 1990s, you oversaw major reductions in military procurement spending (including a 13.4% decline in FY 1994):

  • Secretary Gates and the QDR Independent Panel have agreed that the U.S. went on a “procurement holiday” in the 1990s. How have procurement decisions in the 1990s affected our operations in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere? Given the experience of recent years—and knowing what you know now – would you have supported the same cuts?

(7) Rising Threats:  China and Iran:

China has tripled its military’s budget over the past 15 years, putting at risk our military’s long-standing ability to operate decisively and safely in Northeast Asia. 

  • How should the continuing quantitative and qualitative growth of Chinese military capabilities inform U.S. defense investments?

The International Atomic Energy Agency reports that Iran is working on a likely nuclear weapons program.  Iran’s missile program also demonstrates increasing proficiency and range. 

  • Should Iran’s nuclear program inform U.S. missile defense research and development?  Is Iran’s nuclear program relevant to U.S. force structure and strategic posture in the region?

(8) U.S. Air Force:

Air Force Chief of Staff General Norton Schwartz has stated that the present fleet of 187 F-22 fighters creates a high risk for the U.S. military in meeting its operational demands.

  • As China develops and tests increasingly-capable stealth aircraft, like the J-20, and as Russia develops and sells resilient air defense systems, would you support reviewing the previous decision to end procurement of the F-22 Raptor at 187?  Do you favor creating an export variant of the F-22 for sale to allied air forces?

(9) U.S. Navy:

The U.S. Navy has the fewest number of ships since America’s entrance into World War I.  Yet the Navy is being tasked with arguably more responsibilities than ever before.  Our fleet is undoubtedly the finest ever put to the seas, but quantity has a quality all of its own.  As Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Admiral Mullen has said, “You are what you buy.”

  • What steps would you take to bridge the gap between our 285-ship Navy today and 313-ship requirement that the CNO has called a “floor”? 
  • Congress has mandated that the Navy have no less than 12 aircraft carriers.  Although the Navy currently has 11 carriers, the U.S.S. Enterprise will be decommissioned in 2013, and the U.S.S. Gerald R. Ford will not be commissioned until 2015. Do you support a 12-carrier Navy today?

(10)U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps:

Current budget plans—even prior to the latest announced defense cuts—were premised upon a complete withdrawal from Iraq and a dramatic drawdown in Afghanistan by 2014. They did not anticipate the prospect of a continued, residual presence in Iraq nor the possibility of a requirement for maintaining a sizeable force in Afghanistan.  And, the plans were made before the events of the “Arab Spring,” including the conflict in Libya.  The current budget plans, and current realities, make it all but impossible to achieve adequate “dwell times” (or rest at home for reset, training and time off) between rotations for combat and support units, and will necessitate continued heavy deployments of the National Guard and Reserves.

  • Do you support Secretary Gates’ proposals to reduce the end-strength of the U.S. Army and U.S. Marine Corps?”

Why Weiner Matters

by: Trent Derr - American Exceptionalism

 

Ok by now, we’ve all heard about it.  Weinergate.  Representative Anthony Weiner started with denials, followed by hedging,  and finally followed by admission.  All of this seasoned with Weiner’s shocked response to the question regarding whether he was going to resign – “No, I’m not going to resign.”  The guy who has been married less than  a year who had phone sex, exchanged sexting messages, and sent pornographic photos to no less than six women over Facebook and Twitter doesn’t have the class or common sense to know when to resign.  Duh…

 

However, why does this whole drama around Anthony Weiner’s behavior really matter to the country at large?  For one, he was engaged in having phone sex, sexting, and sending pornographic pictures utilizing the assets of the US Congress.  This will be at least one reason why Weiner will be investigated by the House Ethics Committee.

 

Second, employers have a right to establish standards of conduct for employees, especially for behavior during work hours.   It is common for senior level employees to have morality and behavioral clauses that apply to their employment.  Often the clauses are not only intended to prevent legal claims against the company but more importantly to prevent the employee from damaging the reputation of the company.  Clearly all of these conditions apply to Weiner.  All congress people work for the citizens of the United States so congressmen are employees.  There is no doubt that this type of behavior damages the reputation of Congress and the US Government at large.  Finally, it has become obvious that Representative Weiner was sexting, having phone sex and distributing pornographic material during “normal” work hours.   Any employee I can think of that worked for a company in the United States would be terminated for Weiner’s behavior.  They would be gone immediately.

Not One Person from Obama's Past Remember Him?

Can you name anyone or find anyone who remember Obama from Grade School, High school, College, Students? No you can't.

Not one person who was hi teachers, classmates or Students he supposedly taught remember him. None.
You can not findone person who grew up with him. Not one?

You can not find one person who went to school with him. Not one?
No one and I man no one has any knowledge of him what so ever in past.
You can look but you won't find anyone who has any knowldge of him what so ever.
His Law License was not renewed after 2002.
Michelle Obama had her Law License "Revoked" about the same time. Why?
FOX News has interviewed over 400 people who went to Colombia same time he was there.
Not a one remember him.
The Radical Valdictorian of the class at Columbia has no knowledge of him.

Posted on Floyd Reports-By Guest Writer-On June 9, 2011:

Omar Abu-Namous is the imam of the Islamic Cultural Center in New York and he is encouraging Huma Abedin – a practicing Muslim – to stand by her husband, New York congressman Anthony Weiner. Why would this imam support Anthony Weiner, who was raised Jewish, in a marriage with a practicing Muslim woman?

Every Islamic scholar agrees that it is forbidden for a Muslim woman to marry a non-Muslim. Former Muslim Walid Shoebat has translated the Arabic declarations relative to the validity of the marriage between Weiner and Abedin last year. One such publication Shoebat translated was the Al-Marsid newspaper, which reported on the Weiner/Abedin marriage specifically:

Dr. Anwar Shoeb of the faculty of Islamic law in Kuwait declared that the marriage between Anthony Weiner and Huma Abedin is null and void, considering it adultery as confirmed in the Sharia position, prohibiting the marriage of a Muslim woman to a non-Muslim, regardless of whether he is a Jew or a Christian. In this case, he assured the invalidity of the marriage certificate between them.

Abu-Namous is in direct opposition to his Islamic superiors? Why?

Abedin was raised in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. In 2007, the New York Observer wrote (in an article no longer available but cross-posted at FreeRepublic.com) that her mother is a professor in Saudi Arabia and that her father was an Islamic scholar before his death.

Weiner was raised Jewish but admitted to growing up in a non-religious household. If Abedin remains a practicing Muslim and her religion forbids her from marrying a non-Muslim, isn’t she failing to practice Islam? Wouldn’t that be the case unless Weiner converted to Islam? The New York Times reported that Weiner “sometimes fasts with her (Abedin) during Ramadan.” This would indicate that the congressman is more amenable to practicing Islam than Abedin is to practicing Judaism.

Before people should start believing that Abu-Namous is of the more moderate persuasion, consider what he was quoted as saying in 2001:

A unified Muslim state would be the ideal instrument to convince the world that Islam is the last version of God’s word. God meant his word to be obeyed.

Moreover, Abu-Namous spoke alongside the director of the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA) at the First National Summit of Imams and Rabbis. ISNA is a Muslim Brotherhood group. Abu-Namous is on record as having said there was no conclusive evidence that Muslim were responsible for the September 11th attacks. Ironically, former ground zero mosque imam Feisal Abdul Rauf is a permanent trustee with with the ICC. Abu-Namous’s predecessor at the ICC blamed the Jews for 9/11.

Presiding over the wedding of Weiner and Abedin was none other than Bill Clinton. It took place at the Oheka Castle in Huntington, NY on Long Island – barely more than thirty miles from the ICC where Abu-Namous served as the imam.

The Al-Marsid newspaper reported what Bill Clinton said. Shoebat translated:

Clinton spoke, presiding at the wedding about how the two met and how Abedin rejected Weiner in the beginning but the persistence of the latter did not make him give up….

Did Abedin reject Weiner because he was not Muslim? Why is a New York imam with ties to the ISNA and Feisal Abdul Rauf defending a non-Muslim male with a Muslim female?

Perhaps there is a more important question that needs to be answered. Did a secular Jewish man convert to Islam or did his (still) practicing Muslim wife abandon her religion by marrying him?
