**** SCROLL DOWN FOR UPDATE ****

I’m glad the conservative faux-outrage about Barack Obama Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel’s “f-ing retards” comment is finally dying down.  While, yes, the comment is offensive, as I’ve noted before it’s annoying to see conservatives become the PC speech police . . . but only when liberals use epithets for the mentally disabled.  Yup, it’s hypocritical, especially when a number of prominent and lesser-than conservative bloggers and organizations continue to pal around with and promote Emily Marie Zanotti a/k/a E. M. Zanotti, who committed the same offense.

Anti-Semitic Nut & Stalker Emily Zanotti, Far Right, w/ Pals

Mary Katharine Ham, Michelle Malkin & Melissa Clouthier

Zanotti,  an unstable woman who has been cyberstalking and harassing me for four years, proudly called me–on her website–a “special needs kid” in need of a “helmet” because I dared write on this site (and report to the FBI) about a Muslim woman who made several rape, torture, and death threats against me and my family, as well as Holocaust-denial statements.  Zanotti went on to praise the Muslim threats and Holocaust denial as “making some very valid points.” (And that was after Zanotti had to retract false statements she admitted she made up about me.  Then, she claimed she had several graduate and post-graduate degrees, when she had none at the time.) There is a reason why is known in many circles as “Za-Nutty.”

But what’s interesting is that this nutty woman was proudly employed by the Thomas More Law Center (where she spent all day long blogging instead of working and removed the time stamps to hide it from her boss), the Sam Adams Alliance (whose chief, Eric O’Keefe defended and praised Zanotti’s comments essentially calling me “retarded” and illegally used his non-profit organization to send Zanotti to campaign for Sarah Palin during the 2008 campaign), and Americans for Prosperity, which recently hosted Ms. Zanotti to give advice on online networking (the Chicago Young Republicans hosted a similar event with her).  Did she tell AFP attendees to call people “special needs kids” online and praise Muslim death, rape, and torture threats (as she did)?  Both AFP and Sam Adams Alliance are heavily involved in the Tea Party movement, and their knowing embrace of her lends validity to the claims that the Tea Party movement openly embraces anti-Semitism.  Zanotti was a speaker at a Michigan Tea Party protest.  SAA’s incompetent lawyer even sent me a threatening letter, admitting Zanotti is a liar but threatening to sue me if I wrote about her.

. . . I can’t wait to post my review.  Will be up sometime after Midnight tonight.  Stay tuned.  In the meantime, here’s the trailer for “From Paris With Love” (written by Adi Hasak and one of my fave’s, Luc Besson):

If the TSA will hire a convicted felon robber, who won’t they hire?  And why is the TSA screening us, when the agency refuses to screen . . . its own employees? Absurd is an understatement.  Is the TSA really this desperate for employees?  Are there really so few qualified unemployed Americans applying for a TSA position?

TSA . . . Talent (On Loan From Prison) Security Administration:

The U.S. Transportation Security Administration insisted that Richmond International Airport issue its highest-level security clearance to a TSA security officer with a felony conviction for robbery.

Ah, the molasses-like “advancement” of the Islamic world.

Kavoshgar 3: Apparent Iranian Nukes Test

Yesterday, Iran launched its Kavoshgar-3 (Explorer 3) rocket into space, and, quietly, the West is watching, because there are legitimate fears that Iran is using its back-ass-wards space program to help it develop nuclear weapons. Don’t put it past ’em. The only thing Iran is telling us: that there were several animals on the flight–a rodent, two turtles, and several worms. (No word on whether the rodent’s name is Ahmadinejad). But Western leaders fear that the animals story is just cover for the real purpose of the rocket launch: testing it for the purpose of launching and sending nuclear warheads to their intended target (us or Israel).  Barack Obama may not be paying much attention (his people called the K-3 launch, a “provocative act,” which is the same BS adjective Bush used to use about Iran’s tests), but France is.  More on that below.

But, first, here’s a scene from inside the Kavoshgar-3, including “Death to America” from Iran’s space-worm.

More:

France expresses “deep concern” after the shooting Wednesday by Iran of a space rocket Kavoshgar-3, for “space launch and ballistic missile using common technologies,” said Foreign Ministry.

Ever since Janet Napolitano became Homeland Security Secretary, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents warned me about her girlfriend, Dora Schriro, whom she brought with her from Arizona (where Schriro headed the Arizona Department of Corrections).  Schriro, a bizarre woman with a Ph.D., treated prisoners as “clients,” her name for them, gave them birthday parties and cakes, etc.  And Napolitano made Schriro her special advisor on immigration enforcement, particularly detention and removal of illegal aliens.  That’s why many of them are now living in hotel facilities and given perks many destitute legal American citizens would die for. Her New Age psychobabble endangered American national security and made immigration enforcement and detention a nearly impossible task.

Sensible Shoes:

J-No & Gal-Pal Dora the Explorer Further Ruined ICE, NYDOC, Jeopardize America

When people ask me why I call Napolitano, “The Lesbionic Woman,” that’s one of several reasons why.  J-No hires many women with whom she’s had and appears to want to have a relationship–most of whom have zero relevant experience–and they are flushing our border security down the toilet.  But while Schriro’s policies at ICE will jeopardize our nation for years–maybe, decades–to come.  I will be writing more about Schriro (and what she did to ICE) in the near future.  Dr. Schriro (as she insists on being called), quickly left Homeland Security for a job running the New York Department of Correction (her official title is “Commissioner”), thanks to Mayor Michael Bloomberg.  And that’s where our story begins.

Under Dora Schriro, an extremist Muslim prison cleric (redundant phrase) snuck in box cutter blades.  Oh, and he’s a convicted murderer with a record of sexual assault, who converted to Islam in prison. And–how apropos!–his chosen new Islamic surname is Abdu-Shahid, which is Arabic for “Slave of the Martyr.” And the violent cycle of radical Islamic conversions in the prisons comes full circle and continues.

A city Department of Correction Muslim chaplain who served 14 years in prison for murder and robbery was arrested today for carrying three utility blades and a pair of scissors into a lower Manhattan jail, authorities said.

Every year, during Super Bowl week, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents are pulled off from their duties to work for National Football League billionaires, courtesy of you–the American taxpayer. (ICE agents also do this for the NCAA, Major League Baseball, etc.–during their big events.)  I’ve written about this repeatedly in the past (including here and here and here).  And sadly it keeps happening, including at this year’s Supe.

Illegal Aliens Laughing: This is Their Week in Miami

Even worse, the ICE agents are there to enforce NFL restrictions on free speech which, if challenged in court, wouldn’t hold water.  In the past, for example, ICE agents roamed the streets before the 2006 Super Bowl in Detroit, seizing t-shirts and sweatshirts from some poor shnook vendors, with sayings like, “Detroit Football” or “Super Football Week” emblazoned on them.  (ICE Michigan/Ohio Special Agent in Charge Brian Moskowitz a/k/a “Abu Moskowitz”  spent tax dollars to make a special NFL ICE Super Bowl pin for the agents.)  The NFL even works with ICE to publish a thick manual filled with phrases and words on shirts that deign them “forbidden” and subject to seizure.  Oh, and lest you worry that your game tickets will go up in price, they will, but you–the American taxpayer–paid for this manual and the time spent on putting it together (a new manual with new cities’ and teams’ names and similar sounding names is compiled each year).

Sorry, but the NFL–which does not own the exclusive rights to the game of football or the use of the words “Super and “Detroit”–has no right to do this.  The League has no legal trademark or legitimate property rights to these words.   Still, uneducated, frightened, and mostly minority vendors are afraid of guys with guns and badges and willingly give up the merch, when they’re told that if they give it up, they won’t be arrested or prosecuted.  It makes me sick because it’s complete thuggery.

The NFL recently obtained an order through the Florida Department of State for the rights to “Who Dat?” a slang term you can hear in virtually every Blaxploitation film, BET program, stupid Tyler Perry flick (redundant phrase), or Al Sharpton-Sean Vannity love fest.  It means, “Who’s that?”  And you can also hear it on the Cajun streets of New Orleans, where fans–both Black and White–of the New Orleans Saints, projected onto their beloved, forever-losing team  . . . a team which is now miraculously in this weekend’s Super Bowl. So, in addition, to unconstitutionally restricting the free speech and commercial rights of vendors of t-shirts that say “New Orleans Football,” this week, ICE agents in Miami will be seizing “Who Dat” t-shirts.  It’s funny how the mostly White guys atop the NFL now own the rights to a stupid slang saying for the ebonics crowd who can’t–and refuse–to speak English.  And it’s really something that would never pass muster before the Supreme Court.

**** BREAKING: Scott Brown Likely Sworn in Tomorrow (Thursday) ****

When Al Franken was named the elected U.S. Senator from Minnesota, after a long, contested recount, he was seated within a week.  Yet, Republican Senator-Elect Scott Brown–who trounced his Democrat opponent Martha Coakley and has been the decided victor for some time now–remains unseated.  Why are we allowing liberals to do this?  Votes continue to be cast illegally by temporarily-appointed Senator Paul Kirk.

He Did It, Now Seat Him

Reader Karl writes:

Hey Debbie,

Anything you can dig up on Brown not being seated yet?

Or how about the Senate taking the votes when the temp in the position has no legal right to vote since the election?

They have raised the debt and who knows what else will be forced through, while they delay and keep taking the illegal votes to pass whatever they want.

Seems the MSM is silent as usual.  Franken got seated in less than a week.

A federal agent friend of mine sent me this story, yesterday, and remarked:

So…an armed imposter gained entry at the USBP  [U.S. Border Patrol] Checkpoint in Temecula without suspicion…………..

Like the federal agents in the movie, “Please Remove Your Shoes,” say, we’re LESS safe than before 9/11 and have been ever since that day. More of your Homeland Security tax dollars NOT at work–remember, if this guy could get a gun and a kidnapped woman into an airport and on a plane without anyone checking his credentials or identity, what terrorist couldn’t do that? And where and how did he get the federal clothes? Well, that’s not too difficult, either, as I know personally. And the Border Patrol people didn’t check the guy either. At pretty much every stop of the way, this guy got away with it.

This ad from Nolan’s Cheddar isn’t going to be on during the Superbowl, but it’s definitely a Supe-worthy ad in my book.  You gotta watch the whole thing.  No, it’s not an ad for PETA.  Thanks to friend and reader Mary for the tip. (Isn’t it odd that they used two dead-before-their-time ’70s singers for this? Coincidence?)

Well, we didn’t want another four years of the likes of Bush, Cheney, and Rove running the White House.

–Andrew Young (the White, sleazy Andrew Young who helped John Edwards hide his concubine, NOT the Black, sleazy Andrew Young who helped Jimmy Carter attack American and Israel in the United Nations and put a kick me sign on America for four years) on today’s episode of ABC’s anti-male hag-fest, “The View.”

Andrew Young’s Weird Man-Crush on John Edwards

You know who I’m tired of? Very, very tired of? Andrew and Cheri Young. Yes, John Edwards is a crooked, sleazy, disgusting specimen and liar for many, many reasons. And, thank G-d, he isn’t President (though the guy we have in there really ain’t much different or better, but for known bedding habits). But these people are no better. And they creep me out to the nth degree.
