Al Gore Places Infant Son In Rocket To Escape Dying Planet
http://www.theonion.com/content/news/al_gore_places_infant_son_in
“EARTH—Former vice president Al Gore—who for the past three decades has unsuccessfully attempted to warn humanity of the coming destruction of our planet, only to be mocked and derided by the very people he has tried to save—launched his infant son into space Monday in the faint hope that his only child would reach the safety of another world.
“I tried to warn them, but the Elders of this planet would not listen,” said Gore, who in 2000 was nearly banished to a featureless realm of nonexistence for promoting his unpopular message. “They called me foolish and laughed at my predictions. Yet even now, the Midwest is flooded, the ice caps are melting, and the cities are rocked with tremors, just as I foretold. Fools! Why didn’t they heed me before it was too late?”
Al Gore—or, as he is known in his own language, Gore-Al—placed his son, Kal-Al, gently in the one-passenger rocket ship, his brow furrowed by the great weight he carried in preserving the sole survivor of humanity’s hubristic folly.”
I warned the Gay community many times. Now it comes full circle. I Imagine Women will lose human equality status to becoming property as more Sharia law becomes internationalized. This will be a must to more appeasement to Islamists.
I am not happy I told you so, as a Christian I find your life style as a vice bad for you & sinful. Than again so is being a drunkard or glutton. By Natural law we all have inviolate rights no matter what your lifestyle unless destructive like Heavens Gate, Bo & Peep show to an asteroid. Or a David Koresh. This though is abhorrent. Don’t think it will not happen here as well. The appeasers are many drenched in power. First they use you than they kill you. That’s what totalitarians do. They always need a front to start. Now your disposable to the real ends of the Power Junkies.
Gays have no legal protection from international persecution says tribunal
A gay asylum seeker has been told that he should be safe in his homeland of Syria, provided he behaves “discreetly.” A tribunal found that gays have no right of protection from international persecution.

“Time to put criticisms of Beijing aside, 2010 chief says
VANCOUVER — On the eve of Friday’s start to the controversy-laden Summer Games in Beijing, Vancouver’s Olympic chief said it’s time for critics and observers to put the problems aside and concentrate on sport.
“This is supposed to be about assembling the best there’s ever been in sport in one place,” VANOC CEO John Furlong said.”
From comments:
“Jah Nee Kah Sun from Canada writes: The West should do anything and everything to hobble, weaken, hamper, and embarrass China.”
“pants 7 from Japan writes: Oh, Chinese cops beat up a Japanese reporter today but just give them a wink. And a famous tech. magazine that rhymes with “fired” published an article today about how efforts to clean up the air have failed.”

John R. Bolton, While Diplomats Dither, Iran Builds Nukes
The rationality of continued Western negotiations with Iran depends critically on two assumptions: that Iran is far enough away from having deliverable nuclear weapons that we don’t incur excessive risks by talking; and that by talking we don’t materially impede the option to use military force. Implicit in the latter case is the further assumption that the military option is static — that it remains equally viable a year from now as it is today.
Neither assumption is correct…
(Via Comment Central) Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Defend the individual and so the West
Thinkers of the Enlightenment, a set of new intellectual attitudes that remade Western culture in the 17th and 18th centuries, set out to understand the world and themselves through reason rather than religion. Their ideas led to massive advances in science, economics and commerce, the arts and human liberty, which underpin our present prosperity and social freedoms. Since the September 11, 2001, attacks, Islam has often been seen as the chief threat to the Enlightenment’s legacy. But is there also something internal to Western intellectual history that leaves us vulnerable to the enemies of reason?
Henry R. Nau, Conservative Internationalism
Since World War II international relations specialists have debated two main traditions or schools of American foreign policy, realism and liberal internationalism…
This debate broke down with Ronald Reagan. He opposed both the realist containment strategy of Richard Nixon and the liberal internationalist human rights campaign of Jimmy Carter. He adopted a strategy that used force or the threat of force assertively, as realists recommended, but aimed at the demise of communism and the spread of democracy, as liberal internationalists advocated. Reagan improvised and succeeded brilliantly.1 The Cold War ended, the Soviet Union disappeared, and the United States emerged as the first preeminent “global” power in the history of the world. Even former critics now concede that Reagan was on to something.2
But what tradition did Reagan represent?

France accused in Rwanda genocide
Rwanda genocide survivor praying next to skulls (file picture)
Rwanda has accused France of playing an active role in the genocide of 1994, in which about 800,000 people were killed.
An independent Rwandan commission said France was aware of preparations for the genocide and helped train the ethnic Hutu militia perpetrators.
The report also accused French troops of direct involvement in the killings.
It named 33 senior French military and political figures that it said should be prosecuted. France has previously denied any such responsibility.
Among those named in the report were former French Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin and late President Francois Mitterrand.
The French foreign ministry told the BBC it would only respond to the fresh allegations after reading the report, which was released on Tuesday afternoon.
Earlier this year France’s Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner denied French responsibility in connection with the genocide, but said political errors had been made.
Some 800,000 minority Tutsis and moderate Hutus were slaughtered by Hutu militias in just 100 days in 1994.”

“Undersea ‘Black Smokers’ Found Off Arctic
Aug. 4, 2008 — Jets of searingly hot water spewing up from the ocean floor have been discovered in a far-northern zone of the Arctic Ocean, Swiss-based scientists announced Monday.
The so-called “black smokers” were found 73 degrees north, on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge between Greenland and Norway, in the coldest waters yet for a phenomenon first observed around the Galagapos islands in 1977.
The earth’s plumbing system of hydrothermal vents contain their own, unique ecosystems given the absence of sunlight at depths, in this case, of 7,874 feet, with vinegar-like water attaining temperatures of up to 752 degrees Fahrenheit.
A team from Norway’s University of Bergen and the Lausanne-based Swiss Federal Institute of Technology found the vents on an expedition in June, with the results published on the Swiss polytechnic’s Web site.
These geo-thermal currents are found on undersea, geologically active “mountain ranges” — formed from mighty tectonic plates that push into each other and create spines along the ocean floor.
Hydrothermal vents have been called “black smokers” for the bilious clouds of material emitted from their chimneys.”

The TorStar parent company is profiting, but no thanks to the paper:
“On a segmented basis, newspapers and digital revenue dipped by $400,000 to $280.6 million as growth at Metroland, Torstar’s digital properties and the jointly-owned Metro dailies counterbalanced declines at its daily newspapers. Book publishing revenues, meanwhile, improved by $2.9 million to $118.9 million.
Torstar’s second-quarter results were also impacted by a net one-time gain of $6.8 million, along with a $4.4 million restructuring provision at Metroland.”
So yeah, trumpet it all you want. Harlequin sales are the key, not the fishwrap.
The future is the socialist dream of Utopia.
The past and its “memories” are erased.
Socialism-communism writes its narrative on a clean slate, a tabula rasa.
To the socialist-communist, humans have no mental content at birth; the content of Marxism-Leninism is poured into the young brains.
The Olympics and its focus on youth is a perfect vehicle for the socialist messages.
Boycott Mao Stlong’s Red Orympics.

Yesterday,after the big pride parade in Vancouver,a man went berserk striking nine people in the head with a hammer. He was also armed with a pellet pistol and a couple of knives. His first target was a patio outside a gay bar. Anyone want to take a wild guess at the religion that he is a devout member? I’ll give you a little hint. MOre HAMmer HEAD.Will this little fact be brought up in the media,probably not.
more hammer head…..hee hee hee
