The International Human Rights defense Act of 2014

   The International Human Rights Defense Act of 2014 reads like a do all act by the USA to save the LGBT people of the world. The world needs to do this, no doubt. But not by us.

   The USA affords rights and protection from discrimination for LGBT that leaves it one of the better places in the world for that crowd. The truth is that discrimination against LBGT is huge and ugly in this world, a far larger issue  than this country is able to address. Senator Markey may not appreciate that the large part of this world is composed of primitive cultures that have practices and value systems that have more in tune with times of  a 2000 years ago or more.  He can throw hundreds of billions of borrowed American dollars at the problem and not make a dent. Perhaps the UN would be the appropriate starting place for an international effort of redress and mitigation. Setting a positive example is the only real choice we have. 

   Senator Markey's  effort probably has more to do with stimulating a visceral reaction from taxpayers in the USA, making them appear heartless and mean as liberals are so prone to do. It is how liberals excite their splinter groups of supporters and generate donations and revenue. When the money slows from online fundraising they  publicize some fresh effort to save something, be it whales, turtles, lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgenders, Black and Hispanic victims of discrimination, people needing new cars or new homes they can't afford, government paid cell phones, milk. cheese, groceries, birth control, health care, gasoline, heating oil, airconditioners,  government financed vacations. The next thing might be  federally funded savings accounts for emergencies... in addition to social security. Or a credit card, paid for by taxpayers.  It's coming. You know it is.  And every time we say "Not no but Hell no!", liberals say why not? And here comes the money into liberal political action organisations like Obama's and Hillary's. I believe she has three of them.

   So, it's part of the liberal movement, or scam, Nothing more. Thing is, Senator Markey probably believes he is actually going to do something good with this thing. Where do they find these people?

Pam Geller, DC Clothesline article about Islamic treatment of women. 1/16/2014

UK mom raped in front of son and told: ‘I’m Muslim and you must obey me’

Posted on January 14, 2014 by Pamela Geller

The speaks to, yet again, the supremacism and misogyny inherent in Islam.

This young woman was foolish for carrying on with such a brute, but his behavior is typical of Islamic culture.

Robert Spencer elucidates here:

Abuse in Muslim culture

The Quran’s description of women as inferior to and the property of men not only removes womens’ basic human rights; it also influence men’s view of them. As a result, Muslim cultural traditions have for centuries treated women as second class citizens, forced to marry and have sex with men against their will, and living under a constant death threat should they dishonor their family by violating the misanthropic Sharia laws.

The brutal treatment of innocent young girls may be shocking to those who do not know how women are treated in Muslim countries, but it would be naive to think that people change their habits and views and raise their children to integrate into what in their eyes are blasphemous customs just because they cross a national border.

The statistics speak for themselves. Research suggests that 91 percent of the between 7,000 and 20,000 honor killings each year are committed by Muslims. On top of this statistic come the countless cases of non-deadly honor crimes. In Britain alone, the police estimate that 17,000 cases of honor-based “forced marriages, kidnappings, sexual assaults, beatings and even murders take place every year.” In Turkey, 42 percent of women are victims of physical or sexual abuse. In Morocco, the share is 82 percent. In Egypt, 99.3 percent of women have experienced sexual harassment. Etc.

Infidel women

Another factor contributing to the Muslim rape wave is the fact that Muhammed, if he ever lived, allowed Muslims to take infidel women as their sex slaves. Using female prisoners of war for sexual gratification dates 1,400 years back to their prophet, who had a large number of sex slaves and advised his male followers to imitate his example.

While a Muslim husband can divorce at any time by repeating the word “talaq” three times, a married Muslim woman is her husband’s de facto slave, since she can not divorce unless a Sharia council approves her wish and sets her free. If she leaves without being allowed, her risk of getting killed is as high as the killer’s chance of remaining unpunished for fulfilling his culture’s and God’s expectations on how to treat women who leave a marriage without being allowed to.

The media is protecting his identity. Unbelievable.

Liberalism and the Suicide of America

From Jim Self's Blog  6/23/2014  
 Government must take something away in order to give something away. When Government takes money away from taxpayers to increase welfare entitlements it is moving in a liberal direction. It is assuming more and more responsibility for supporting more and more people.  That is making government bigger, more powerful and intrusive. Reducing entitlements and cutting spending is a conservative move, making government less intrusive, less powerful, less controlling.

    Borrowing more and more money each month to buy our own bonds, keeping interest rates low, will result in increasing the debt. Increasing the debt is moving in a liberal direction because it makes government debt larger, takes money away from taxpayers in the forms of principal and interest and gives it to people through entitlements. These entitlements are ongoing and ever increasing. Growth of entitlements means growth of government support, responsibility and hence government as a whole.
    Keep in mind, if our government had not pushed the Fannie Mae and  Freddie Mac to loosen credit requirements, enabling banks and other lenders to provide mortgage loans to millions of people who could not pay them back, we would not have experienced the credit shutdown, the recession, or the jobless recovery. It was a liberal move to do this...loaning more and more money to those who needed it but could not afford it. This was  government intrusion leading to destruction of our housing and credit markets. They wanted to do the right thing and help people but they put blinders on as to the unintended consequences of the credit bubble. It's what happens when government interferes with a market.
    This also had to do with Congressmen accepting money (bribes) in the form of donations to help them obtain votes of special interest groups. This is widespread in our government. It is a flaw. And it may be a lethal flaw. It must be addressed. Our President not having a line item veto is one of the problems. Term limits is another badly needed reform if we are to have representatives who have their eyes on the ball instead of their perpetual re-election.
    Increasing government borrowing like we are doing (liberal) will proceed to the point of  destroying the value of the currency. This is taking a while, but as the dollar loses it's edge as the reserve currency of the world we will see the unfortunate results of inflation and recession again, only this time, with the trillions of dollars presently being held for trading flooding back into circulation, it will be in hyperdrive. Liberals in our government turn away from this inevitable collapse of the dollar, acting like it will never come. They know that they will not be held to account, personally, and that is enough for them to blindly follow President Obama into his world of social programs and expansion of the welfare state.
   Working a problem over and over the same way hoping for a different outcome is one definition of insanity. Pie in the sky people who know what they want but don't have any idea of the cost vote their liberal pork providers into office and they spend and spend and spend. When they team up with myopic, dollar hungry media owners they win elections by selective reporting,  manipulating public opinion. When one has the media on their side one cannot help but win elections. Insanity then rules.
    This insanity brings destruction. I think the reason this country has survived as long as it has is because of the tendency of people to vote against national suicide. Things are looking pretty bad everywhere we look. Liberals either cannot understand just how bad the threats are or choose to ignore them in favor of their own political agendas. American Democracy is facing it's own suicide. Will America vote to save itself or will it vote to give away it's last drop of blood?
