QOTD: "Any serious look at the history of human beings over the millennia shows that the species began in poverty. It is not poverty, but prosperity, that needs explaining. Poverty is automatic, but prosperity requires many things – none of which is equally distributed around the world or even within a given society...

...In 1900, only 3 percent of American homes had electric lights but more than 99 percent had them before the end of the century. Infant mortality rates were 165 per thousand in 1900 and 7 per thousand by 1997. By 2001, most Americans living below the official poverty line had central air conditioning, a motor vehicle, cable television with multiple TV sets and other amenities.

A scholar specializing in the study of Latin America said that the official poverty level in the United States is the upper middle class in Mexico. The much criticized market economy of the United States has done far more for the poor than the ideology of the left.

Pope Francis’ own native Argentina was once among the leading economies of the world, before it was ruined by the kind of ideological notions he is now promoting around the world." --Thomas Sowell

TO BE A MUSLIM OR NOT TO BE: By His Works Ye Shall Know Him

By Daniel John Sobieski

Republican presidential contender Donald Trump has said many contentious things before and during his candidacy and has gain considerable traction among the electorate, methinks, because he said many things that are on people’s minds that they are afraid to say themselves. Trump, with his repetitive denunciation of political correctness, has become their microphone.

But it was what he did not say to a questioner at a rare, for him, town hall meeting, that has gotten him in failure this time being roundly condemned for not slapping down a questioner who asked about Islamist training camps that are operating in the U.S., prefacing that with a question on whether Barack Hussein Obama is, as many suggest, a closet Muslim. Trump says he didn’t hear the first part, responding that he would look into the training camp issue.

There is a saying, a Christian saying, that by their fruits ye shall know them, and if President Obama is not a Muslim, he has given us every reason to think he is.

Without Mentioning “Union,” White House Goes All In For Pro-Labor, Anti-Business Propaganda

By Labor Union Report

It must be a tough balancing act for President Obama to have so many corporate backers, yet still appease his friends in the union movement.

Nevertheless, the White House does appear to be trying its best to appease both, Obama’s corporate cronies, as well as his friends inside the House of Labor on a new campaign page on the White House website announcing the “White House Summit on Worker Voice.”

“A voice in the board room starts with a voice in the break room,” the website site declares. “There’s something every one of us can do to create change in our workplaces, and it always starts with a conversation — with colleagues or with decision makers. Make a commitment to start that conversation today.”

The website even has a slick video that talks about workers making changes in their workplaces through collective action (aka “concerted activity”)—all the while not mentioning the word “union” once.

While there has been much political rancor over the last several years regarding the pro-union leanings of Obama’s appointees at the National Labor Relations Board, one of the lesser-seen pushes coming from the NLRB has been the push toward the expansion of protected, concerted activity without a union.

CALIFORNIA’S DROUGHT: A Democrat-Made Crisis

By Steven Greenhut


HIGH AND DRY: The lake bed where water has dried due to the drought at Big Bear Lake, Calif. California cities cut water use by a combined 31 percent in July, exceeding the governor’s statewide mandate to conserve, officials said Aug. 27. The strong water conservation figures show California residents are beginning to understand the dire need to cut back in a fourth year of drought, Felicia Marcus, chair of the State Water Resources Control Board, said. (AP)
I was walking through downtown Sacramento recently when raindrops started falling. People on the street stopped dead in their tracks, looked up at the sky and began acting giddy. “What’s that?” I asked a man. “I think it’s something called rain,” he responded. Such is the gallows humor in a state that hasn’t seen substantial rainfall in years.

The obvious lack of rain is the seemingly obvious reason for the state’s lack of sufficient water. Water levels in state reservoirs are falling, officials are cracking down on “excess” water use (lawn-watering, etc.), and voters passed a water bond on the 2014 ballot to help fund more storage. The Capitol crowd is obsessed with the water issue, while local planners use the crisis to clamp down on building permits.

State officials say California’s drought is “one of the most severe droughts on record” and they warn that even an El Nino rainy season is unlikely to fix the situation. In fact, nothing seems to fix the situation. Californians have slashed their water use by 31 percent during July — well above the 25-percent reduction targeted by the governor. And there’s still not enough water.

But as this Watchdog series will show, California’s drought is largely a man-made crisis. It is caused by a series of policies — some from the past, many that are ongoing — which has prioritized environmental demands above the basic provision of water resources to the public. More than half of the state’s water resources simply flow out the San Francisco Bay to the Pacific Ocean.

QOTD: "... these kind of atrocities — rape of children and Honor Killings — ... occur with impunity. Who knows what others they’re turning a blind eye to. Our Military Leaders, both Civilian and in uniform, who are creating and enforcing these policies are acting like their counterparts in the Nazi Armed Forces [yeah, I said it — because it’s true].

Ordering U.S. troops to ignore Child Abuse and Honor Killing murders should be a Court Martial Offense.

That Officers and Civilians in charge of our Military should put our men and women in uniform in such a position is utterly and totally unforgivable.

That Officers and Civilians in charge of our Military should allow children to be raped to not offend cultural sensibilities and allow girls to be murdered because they transgressed the dogma of the Barbaric ‘religion’ known as Islam is vile and disgusting." --Bob Belvedere

These 20 people, who nominally call themselves "scientists", have written a letter to President Obama urging him to use the RICO statute to prosecute people who disagree with them on climate science, essentially putting scientific agreement in the same status as organized crime. If they can't win the scientific debate with persurasion, they will win it with guns. From the letter:

One additional tool – recently proposed by Senator Sheldon Whitehouse – is a RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act) investigation of corporations and other organizations that have knowingly deceived the American people about the risks of climate change, as a means to forestall America’s response to climate change.

Of course "deceive the American people" is defined by these folks in practice as "disagreeing with us".

With apparently nothing better to do, Obama administration slams Hillsdale College as "not a real college"

By Blake Neff

An Obama administration representative took a shot at a well-known conservative college Thursday, saying the school wasn’t included on its much-heralded new “College Scorecard” because it isn’t a real two-to-four year college.

Hillsdale College, a 1,500-student liberal arts college in Michigan, is ranked by U.S. News and World Reports as the 67th-best national liberal arts college in the country. The college is well-known for the conservative identity of its student body and its focus on a core curriculum that emphasizes Judeo-Christian tradition and the U.S. Constitution. It’s also known for its refusal to accept any federal funding (including federal student loans), in order to remain free of most federal regulatory control.

Despite its name, the Obama administration’s new College Scorecard doesn’t grade schools (though it was originally planned to) and instead just offers a bevy of data, such as schools’ graduation rate and the average salary of graduates. But notably, Hillsdale can’t be found on the scorecard, as though it doesn’t exist.

Ted Cruz: Barack Obama Employing the "Exact Same Argument" ISIS Uses To Justify Killing Christians

By Real Clear Politics

Sen. Ted Cruz says President Obama is an "apologist" who is unwilling to name Islamic terrorism as the biggest problem in the world: "He said, yes they are committing acts of terror, but Christians and Jews have committed acts of terror as well, and he invoked the Crusades and the Inquisition."

"That argument is the exact same argument that is made by the terrorists," Cruz said. "ISIS when they are beheading and crucifying Christians, they invoke the Crusades and the Inquisition."

"I don't think it is asking too much to ask this president to stay in the current millenium."

THE AGENDA TO ERASE AMERICA: The Democrats’ Criminal Refugee "Resettlement" Gambit

By James Simpson

President Obama and his rancid leftist allies have subjected America to a blizzard of lies. Nothing that leaves his mouth even remotely parrots the truth, but typically stands truth on its head. The propaganda infrastructure spanning media, Hollywood, non-profit institutions and the halls of academia then erects a virtually impenetrable wall of disinformation to advance the lie.

They have just foisted on us a “deal” with Iran that threatens to create a holocaust, the likes of which America, and perhaps the world, has never seen. As Iran chanted “death to America” and “death to Israel,” this “deal” somehow skirted the advice and consent role reserved to the U.S. Senate. While we are afflicted with many feckless, incompetent and corrupt Republican Senators — never mind the Democrats — the “deal” could have never obtained the requisite approval of 2/3ds of senators. The lies about the “deal” are too numerous to catalog, and before the ink has even dried, Iran has suddenly “discovered” massive stockpiles of uranium it never knew it had!

Now the administration wants to use the refugee resettlement program to import a flood of Syrian immigrants into the U.S. It will virtually guarantee an opening for ISIS and other terrorists to establish bases in the U.S. legally with taxpayer dollars. Obama created his own 9-11 in Benghazi. Apparently that wasn’t enough. Now he wants one here.

GREAT NEWS: Iran Cranks Up Global Funding of Terror Groups in Anticipation of Democrat Sanctions Relief

By The Tower

Iran is using the expected financial windfall it will receive from the nuclear deal to increase its funding of the terrorist groups Hezbollah and Hamas, Avi Issacharoff reported in The Times of Israel today.

Since the deal was signed, Iran has significantly increased its financial support for two of the largest terror groups in the region that have become political players, Hamas and Hezbollah. In the years before the deal was signed, the crippling sanctions limited this support, which had significantly diminished along with Iran’s economy. But Tehran’s belief that tens, or hundreds, of billions of dollars will flow into the country in the coming years as a result of sanctions relief has led to a decision to boost the cash flow to these terror organizations.

This support, for example, has enabled Hezbollah to obtain highly developed new armaments, including advanced technologies that many militaries around the world would envy.

A man is free to attend the Westboro Baptist Church but if he chooses to do so I'm not obligated to defend his Christianity. And frankly, whatever the President's personal faith, there is no dispute that his leadership of the western world has been an utter catastrophe for Christians around the planet. Some of the oldest Christian communities on earth have been entirely extinguished on Obama's watch: in Mosul, Iraq, which was an American protectorate on the day he took office, not a single Christian remains. Every single one of them is dead or fled. So, instead of jumping through your preposterous hoops and speaking up for the most powerful man in the world, I would rather speak up for the powerless - for the Nigerian schoolgirls, for the Yazidi, for the Copts in Egypt, and for all the other beleaguered Christian communities in the world this feckless president has set alight and watched burn." --Mark Steyn

PROF. JEFFREY SONNENFELD: Yes, Trump Was Right, Carly Fiorina Was One of the Worst CEOs of All-Time

A Dean at Yale Business School, Jeffrey Sonnenfeld was surprised to hear his name come up not once, but twice, at CNN's GOP debate. Donald Trump noted Fiorina's abysmal track record as a CEO at Lucent and HP, citing Sonnenfeld's authorship, which was not rooted in any political affiliation.

Fiorina's response was to deflect and deny, but Sonnenfeld penned a blistering response today in Politico:

As Fiorina admits, I have been critical of her for over a decade—long before she announced her political aspirations. I have studied her business record, challenged her leadership abilities and have come to agree with the assessment that she was one of the worst technology CEOs in history...

Trump on the Second Amendment

By Karl Denninger

The cuckservative world is agape, and the liberals are running screaming -- and scared -- today.

Donald J. Trump on the Right to Keep and Bear Arms

The Second Amendment to our Constitution is clear. The right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed upon. Period.

Let me begin: While Mr. Trump's position is miles ahead of many others in the political sphere, he could have stopped right here when it comes to the law -- after all, The Second Amendment is clear.

The Second Amendment guarantees a fundamental right that belongs to all law-abiding Americans. The Constitution doesn’t create that right – it ensures that the government can’t take it away. Our Founding Fathers knew, and our Supreme Court has upheld, that the Second Amendment’s purpose is to guarantee our right to defend ourselves and our families. This is about self-defense, plain and simple.

Correct.

These Units are New. They Look Human.

As Doug Powers relates it, Hillary's performance on Face the Nation was bug-ridden, though she has assured us she is, in fact, a human.

This appearance was sufficiently disturbing that I suspect it will boost Sanders in the polls and nudge Joe Biden just a bit closer to throwing his toupee in the ring.

ANSWERING THE MEDIA’S QUESTION: Is Obama a Muslim?

By Lawrence Sellin

I do not believe Barack Obama is a Muslim, nor do I think he is a Christian, nor do I think it matters, because he is not motivated by any religious belief, but by a secular ideology.

All of his convictions and actions can be explained by a single supposition.

Obama is dedicated to the subversion of Western, in particular White European, Judeo-Christian-based democracy.

In the world today, the two strongest forces opposing Western, Judeo-Christian democracy are radical Islam and Marxism in its current manifestations.

The proponents of radical Islam and Marxism have a shared hatred of the United States as the embodiment of evil and the main impediment to the subjugation of the individual by either Sharia or the state.

In that respect, Obama's modus operandi can be considered Islamo-Marxist by embracing their methods that, he thinks, can effectively undermine American culture and weaken the ability to transmit to future generations the principles upon which the United States was founded, in order to pave the way for a new political order, his so-called fundamental transformation.

Top 20 Photos of Helpless Muslim Refugees in Europe You’ll Never See in Legacy Media

Why won't U.S. media show you how Muslim "refugees" are making themselves at home in Europe?

After all, the Democrat party is demanding that Obama bring 200,000 more of these "refugees" into American cities and towns -- at taxpayer expense. The least they could do is show you what you’ll be getting for your money.


SURPRISE: President Obama Decides to Build a Border Security Wall. Only One Problem: It’s in Africa.

By Mac Slavo

In 2005 then-Governor of Arizona Janet Napolitano famously said that building a wall on the southern border of the United States to stem the flow of illegal immigration would be ineffective. “You show me a 50-foot wall and I’ll show you a 51-foot ladder at the border. That’s the way the border works,” she argued.


A 7 mile stretch of President Obama’s “basically complete” border fence
That deep seeded focus on domestic security was apparently enough for President Obama to eventually appoint her as head of the Department of Homeland Security, overseeing the safety of the American people.

An actual wall designed to keep unknown individuals and potential terrorists out of the country, however, was never part of the security infrastructure and was never effectively implemented in the years following.

Because, of course, walls don’t work.

Except when you are building them in foreign countries.

Though the broader mainline media refuses to touch this story, it shows just how politicized the debate over illegal immigration in the United States has become.

Well, in truth, these are not so much "fun facts" as they are troubling evidence that Carly Fiorina is yet another establishment plant-cum-loser, one of a series employed by the Republican leadership team to diffuse grassroots support of an outside-the-system candidate like Ted Cruz (or, currently, Donald Trump). With Carly's rise in the polls, due to two solid debate performances, it's worth examining her track record to determine whether: (a) could actually win a general election; and (b) she would offer good policy solutions as a commander-in-chief.

Furthermore, she recently stated that border walls and fences are not effective at protecting U.S. national sovereignty.

QOTD: "On Wednesday night, House Republican Conference Vice Chairwoman Lynn Jenkins, released a statement calling for the end of the 60-vote threshold, the first member of leadership to take that public stand.

“Harry Reid opened the door to this last Congress,” Jenkins said of Reid, who, as majority leader, employed the nuclear option to break the GOP filibuster of Obama’s judicial nominees. “It’s time Senate Republicans walked through that door.

“Our nation cannot afford a government continually held hostage by Democrats unwilling to hold a vote on the critical issues facing America,” Jenkins continued. “These votes are simply too important to continue to be ignored.”" -- Emma Dumain and Niels Lesniewski
