Obama Pays to Treat Alcoholism in Chinese Hookers

A classic example why the knuckleheads in Washington should all be booted out of office....maybe we should sent them to China to become pimps and prostitutes there.....!

 

 U.S. Pays $2.6Mil to Train Chinese Hookers

U.S. Will Pay $2.6 Million to Train Chinese Prostitutes to Drink Responsibly on the Job
The National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAA), a part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), will pay $2.6 million in U.S. tax dollars to train Chinese prostitutes to drink responsibly on the job.

Dr. Xiaoming Li, the researcher conducting the program, is director of the Prevention Research Center at Wayne State University School of Medicine in Detroit. 

The grant, made last November, refers to prostitutes as "female sex workers"--or FSW--and their handlers as "gatekeepers." 

Here is another fine example of WTF!!!?:

CNSNews.com - U.S. Will Pay $2.6 Million to Train Chinese Prostitutes to Drink Responsibly on the Job (http://www.cnsnews.com/public/content/article.aspx?RsrcID=47976)

And while this passed in Congress last November - remember who controlled Congress then. Someone tell me again why taxes can't be lowered. We are borrowing money from China to train their hookers.

Yet us Americans are struggling to make ends meet.. Don't help us, help someone else who doesn't give a damn about us... This Country is going to the crapper...

Where do people come up with this stuff? Were they sitting around a table and someone said, "we need to help the drunk hookers in china." 

Remember who controlled The White House then and had veto power?

Of course, I'd expect you to look past the faults of your own party and blame the Democrats exclusively.

The grant, made last November, refers to prostitutes as "female sex workers"--or FSW--and their handlers as "gatekeepers." 

Yet us Americans are struggling to make ends meet.. Don't help us, help someone else who doesn't give a damn about us... This Country is going to the crapper...

Well, a true capitalist would go where the money is and become a Chinese hooker. 

Don't we have American hookers that need help? 

Exactly. If you ask me for 100 bucks to spend on a hooker, then the onus is on me, but if you ask for 100 bucks and THEN spend it on a hooker, it's on you.

On the other hand, Obama is now telling companies who should be at the helm, how they can spend their money and how to run their business.

Well, at least he's finally found an industry he actually knows something about and is qualified to tell people how it's done.

Ayan Hirsi Ali on Bin Laden and the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood

clipped from: www.csmonitor.com
Bin Laden was many things, but he was not original. He was himself introduced to the doctrine of jihad by the late Palestinian theologian Abdullah Yusuf Azzam. Significantly, before Azzam begun teaching bin Laden and others in Saudi Arabia, he was a member of the Palestinian Muslim Brotherhood.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Unlike Al Qaeda, the Muslim Brotherhood has evolved and learned the hard way that the use of violence will be met with superior violence by state actors. The clever thing to do, it now turns out, was to be patient and invest in a bottom-up movement rather than a commando structure that risked being wiped out by stronger forces. Besides, the gradualist approach is far more likely to win the prize of state power. All that Khomeini did before he came to power in Iran was to preach the merits of a society based on Islamic law. He did not engage in terrorism. Yet he and his followers took over Iran – a feat far greater than bin Laden ever achieved. In Iran the violence came later.

Obama, Spending Three Times as Fast as Bush, Blames Bush

April 13, 2011 3:59 P.M.

By Jim Geraghty


Do conservatives not understand how the deficit works?
Every one of these articles suggests just that.


Seven quick thoughts on the Most Important Speech of Obama’s Presidency Since the Last One . . .

1. The prepared text begins, “This debate over budgets and deficits is about more than just numbers on a page, more than just cutting and spending. It’s about the kind of future we want.” I read that and hear, ‘I cannot get the numbers to add up.” Or, perhaps, “It was my understanding there would be no math involved in this debate.”

2. There is a lot of blaming Bush in this speech. Quick perspective: Using numbers from the U.S. Treasury, we see that the debt during Bush’s eight years in office increased from $5.7 trillion to $10.6 trillion, or $4.9 trillion over eight years. That’s bad; that’s basically $610 billion per year. But in the less than three years Obama has been in office, the debt has increased from $10.6 trillion to $14.2 trillion, a $3.6 trillion increase in about 27 months. In other words, Obama is increasing the debt by $1.6 trillion per year, three times as fast as Bush.

3. Obama declares his desire to “reduce spending in the tax code.” What an Orwellian way of saying, “raise taxes.”

4. “Even after our economy recovers . . .” A subtle acknowledgment that the economy has not recovered.

5. It’s rather amazing how Obama sticks to the phrase “win the future” after it has been mocked relentlessly for its vacuousness. The focus groups must be showing something.

6. Early on, Obama declares, “Politicians are often eager to feed the impression that solving the problem is just a matter of eliminating waste and abuse — that tackling the deficit issue won’t require tough choices. “ Minutes later Obama declares, “Over the last two years, Secretary Gates has courageously taken on wasteful spending, saving $400 billion in current and future spending.” Then, talking health care, he says, “My approach would build on these reforms. We will reduce wasteful subsidies and erroneous payments.” So talk about eliminating waste and abuse is a distraction from the real issues, but Obama will do it anyway.

When you get a contradiction like that, I suspect it means the speech was written by committee and they tried to paper over the disagreements.

7. The self-proclaimed “responsible adult” didn’t offer a budget to go with this speech.

UPDATE: There are many, many reasons Obama has no credibility on this issue, but this trip down memory lane, recalling his debate pledge against Senator McCain, is a big one:




“Actually, I am cutting more than I am spending. So that it will be a net spending cut.”

Oprah may not publicly support Obama for 2012?

Winfrey won't publicly support Obama in 2012?
Wednesday, April 6 2011, 3:08pm EDT

Oprah Winfrey reportedly does not plan to publicly support Barack Obama in the 2012 US presidential election.

Winfrey supported Obama's campaign in 2008, holding a highly publicised political rally for him during his presidential challenge.

According to a Gallup poll conducted before the rally, Winfrey's favourable ratings fell from 74 to 66% while her unfavourable ratings jumped from 17 to 26%.

Her TV show ratings also fell following the event.

A source has told PopEater that Winfrey doesn't want to do anything to alienate viewers now that she has launched her OWN network.

"For 2012, much has changed for Oprah. She now has her own cable channel called OWN that has been struggling to find an audience - she isn't going to do anything to alienate them," the insider said.

The source added: "Unlike in 2008, when a drop in ratings didn't matter as much for the queen of TV, Oprah is now fighting every day to get people to tune into OWN."

The source continued: "Helping a friend keep the most important job in the world is great, but making sure her OWN network thrives is now her priority."

Judge Judy defeated Oprah in the ratings last season to become the number one daytime TV series.

Earlier this month, Chicago-based Harpo Productions revealed that the final episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show will air on May 25.

She is still missing, continue to pray for her and her family, the latest info from MichelleMalkin

It has now been 23 days since my cousin, 18-year-old University of Washington student Marizela Perez, disappeared in the Seattle area.

I wish I could tell you good news.

We have had a private investigator on the case the past week. Several leads have been followed. But Marizela is still missing. Our hearts ache for Emem and her parents, Edgar and Jasmin, who have not rested one moment in their efforts to find her. Marizela’s loved ones continue to spread the word and spread her spirit in her South Jersey hometown of Egg Harbor Township, NJ, in her home away from home in Seattle, WA, in her parents’ native homeland in the Philippines, and across our great country where so many friends and volunteers have kept Marizela’s case in the public eye.

Marizela’s friend Brianna Price went to school with her in Egg Harbor Township, NJ. Brianna teamed up with Elizabeth (Beth) Janansky and Lydia Chong to make and sell bracelets to support the search for Marizela. They are orange “for Marizela’s favorite color” and include the Tagalog phrase from her tattoo — “lahat ay magiging maayos.” (“All will be well” or “Everything’s going to be okay.”)

You can order bracelets for $5 each (all proceeds go to Marizela’s family for the search) from Brianna.

E-mail her at dragunsangel-@-aol.com and put “MARIZELA” in the subject line.

Brianna writes that Marizela’s South Jersey friends will also be holding a fund-raising event on April 8 at Egg Harbor Township High School’s lower cafeteria where the bracelets will be sold:

“I am working alongside the Egg Harbor Township High School’s Drama Club/Thespians Honor Society, Key Club, Art Club, Latin Club, Choir, Dance, and many teachers and graduates to put together a Coffee House performance night. This event is on Friday, April 8th. Doors open at 7:30. Admission is $5.00 and we will be selling wristbands there as well. The link to the event page on facebook is http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=306349&id=613401648&saved#!/event.php?eid=203738876322949.”

While we press forward with the investigation and search efforts, please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you so much.

I remain confident of this: I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. -Psalm 27:13 Have you seen me

Don't forget Next Saturday‏
WALK NAKED IN CANADA DAY
Don't forget to mark your calendars.
As you may already know, it is a sin for a Muslim male to see any woman
other than his wife naked and if he does, he must
commit suicide. So next Saturday at 1 PM Eastern

Time, all Canadian women are
asked to walk out of their house completely
naked to help weed out any neighborhood terrorists.
Circling your block for one hour is recommended for
this anti-terrorist effort.

All patriotic men are to position themselves in lawn
chairs in front of their houses to demonstrate
their support for the women and to prove that
they are not Muslim terrorist sympathizers.
Since Islam also does not approve of
alcohol, a cold 6-pack at your side is further
proof of your patriotism.
The Canadian government appreciates your efforts to
root out terrorists and applauds your participation
in this anti-terrorist activity

 
God bless Canada !
P.S..

It is your patriotic duty to inform others. If you
don't send this to at least 1 person, you're a
terrorist-sympathizing, lily-livered coward and
are possibly aiding and abetting terrorists.

Mother "offered cash" if Libya woman changes story

LONDON | Tue Mar 29, 2011 12:01am EDT

LONDON (Reuters) - The mother of a Libyan woman who said she had been raped by pro-government militiamen said she had been asked to convince her daughter to retract the allegations in return for her freedom and cash or a new home.

Eman al-Obaidi burst into a hotel full of foreign journalists in Tripoli on Saturday and told them, weeping, how she had been held for two days and raped by 15 militiamen loyal to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.

After being intimidated by security men and hotel staff, who also beat journalists trying to interview her in the restaurant of the hotel, she was bundled into a car and driven away.

Her allegations have not been independently verified. The government said on Sunday Obaidi had been released and she was with her family.

Her mother, Aisha Ahmad, told journalists she had been contacted by the authorities about her daughter and how she could be freed.

"Last night at 3, they called from Gaddafi's compound and asked me to convince my daughter Eman to change what she said, and we will set her free immediately and you can take anything you and your children would ask for," she said, according to Britain's Sky News, which broadcast her interview with an English translation late on Monday.

"Money, new home, just ask your daughter to change what she has said. I told my daughter, keep silent," she said, holding a picture of Obaidi to the camera.

It was not immediately clear when the interview was filmed.

Ahmad said Obaidi had been "mistreated by those criminals and cheaters, Gaddafi and his followers".

"Eman was kidnapped in front of the camera," she said.

"She was trying to appear to the world, she wanted to tell them what was happening in Misrata, in Benghazi and the east. She wanted to reveal that."

Wadad Omar, who said she was her cousin, said on Sunday that Obaidi was first arrested after taking part in a protest in the early days of the uprising in the western city of Zawiyah. The revolt erupted in mid-February.

Residents in Benghazi, bastion of the insurgency against Gaddafi, staged a demonstration in support of Obaidi on Sunday.

Libyan Woman’s Shock Rape Account to Reporters Cut Short in Melee

TRIPOLI, Libya (AP/THE BLAZE) — A distraught Libyan woman stormed into a Tripoli hotel Saturday to tell foreign reporters that government troops raped her, setting off a brawl when hotel staff and government minders tried to detained her.

\

Iman al-Obeidi was tackled by waitresses and government minders as she sat telling her story to journalists after she rushed into the restaurant at the Rixos hotel where a number of foreign journalists were eating breakfast.

According to Sky News:

As journalists tried to speak to her, things got out of control and the police minders waded in, trying to physically shut her up and stop her talking.

Hers is not the voice they want heard in this country. In the commotion a gun was pointed towards the Sky News team in an attempt to stop them filming.

A team from another news organisation had their camera smashed in front of them.

After about 15 minutes the woman was dragged outside the hotel and put into a waiting car.

A bag was put over her head and she was driven away. The government minders said she was being taken to a hospital, but according to CNN, “she insisted she was being carted off to prison.”

She claimed loudly that troops had detained her a checkpoint, tied her up, abused her, then led her away to be gang raped.

Her story could not be independently verified, but the dramatic scene provided a rare firsthand glimpse of the brutal crackdown on public dissent by Moammar Gadhafi’s regime as the Libyan leader fights a rebellion against his rule that began last month.

The regime has been keeping up a drumbeat of propaganda in the Tripoli-centered west of the country under its control even as it faces a weeklong international air campaign against the Libyan military.

At a hastily arranged press conference after the incident, government spokesman Moussa Ibrahim said investigators had told him the woman was drunk and possibly mentally challenged.

Before she was dragged out of the hotel, al-Obeidi managed to tell journalists that she was detained by a number of troops at a Tripoli checkpoint on Wednesday. She said they were drinking whiskey and handcuffed her. She said 15 men later raped her.

“They tied me up … they even defecated and urinated on me,” she said, her face streaming with tears. “The Gadhafi militiamen violated my honor.”

The woman, who appeared in her 30′s, wore a black robe and a floral scarf around her neck and identified herself. She had scratches on her face and she pulled up her black robe to reveal a bloodied thigh. She said neighbors in the area where she was detained helped her escape.

The Associated Press only identifies rape victims who volunteer their names.

As al-Obeidi spoke, a hotel waitress brandished a butter knife, a government minder reached for his handgun and another waitress pulled a jacket tightly over her head.

Al-Obeidi said she was targeted by the troops because she’s from the eastern city of Benghazi, a rebel stronghold.

The waiters called her a traitor and told her to shut up. She retorted: “Easterners – we’re all Libyan brothers, we are supposed to be treated the same, but this is what the Gadhafi militiamen did to me, they violated my honor.”

It soon turned into a scene of chaos with journalists attempting to protect the woman from government minders who physically attacked and intimidated her.

Journalists who tried to intervene were pushed out of the way by the minders. A British television reporter was punched, and CNN’s camera was smashed on the ground and ripped to pieces by the government minders.

Eventually the minders overpowered the woman and led her outside, shoving her into a car that sped away. Al-Obeidi kept crying that she was certain she would be thrown in jail. She begged photographers to take her picture, raising her robe to show them her bruised body. A minder tried to cover her mouth with his hand to keep her from talking.

“Look at what happens – Gadhafi’s militiamen kidnap women at gunpoint, and rape them … they rape them,” al-Obeidi screamed.

She said she wanted to be taken to see the leader himself.

“I want to see Moammar Gadhafi. Didn’t he say that every victim will have justice? I want my rights,” she said.

The government spokesman said the woman was under investigation.

“The investigators did phone me and told me the lady is drunk and that she seems to be suffering mentally,” Ibrahim said. “They are checking on her health condition, her mental condition, whether she was really abused or if these were fantasies.”

Gadhafi‘s crackdown has been the region’s most violent against the wave of anti-government protests sweeping the Middle East. Tensions have been rising between foreign reporters in the Libyan capital and the government minders who have sought to tightly control what they see and whom they talk to. Most of the international press corps is being housed at the Rixos hotel.

Hypocrisy anyone?????

Angry Obama in 2007: Americans ‘Have a Right to Know’ about major foreign policy actions
Posted by The Right Scoop on Mar 25, 2011 in Politics
Way back in 2007 Obama felt strongly, passionately that Americans have a right to know when we make major foreign policy decisions. My how times have changed (h/t: CNSNews):

But the fact of the matter is that when we don’t talk to the American people — we’re debating the most important foreign policy issues that we face, and the American people have a right to know. It is not just Washington insiders that — are part of the debate that has to take place with respect to how we’re going to shift our foreign policy. This is a seminal question.

I found the full clip that adds the context to the above quote, which also shows Hillary arguing that you don’t telegraph everything because it can have major repercussions around the world. Barack disagrees:

So what happened to that Barack? Oh right, he was just sayin’ stuff to win.

Led into a war by a President who can't be trusted

.
Americans will have a hard time supporting President Obama's war in Libya-because the United States is already fighting two wars and because the President never publicly made the case for involvement.-Luis Romero/APAmericans will have a hard time supporting President Obama's war in Libya -- because the United States is already fighting two wars, because the president never publicly made the case for involvement, because Congress never authorized the war, and because there are no identifiable American interests.

Americans will have a hard time supporting President Obama's war in Libya-because the United States is already fighting two wars and because the President never publicly made the case for involvement.-Luis Romero/AP

But just as important, for those Americans paying close attention, is the growing realization that the president can't be trusted. His assurances that America's military role in Libya will be limited in scope and duration carry little weight after the lies and evasions of his top aides. Not even a week into our war on Libya, the White House has already peppered Americans with a handful of falsehoods, equivocations and misleading statements.

On Tuesday, for instance, Obama was asked by Spanish-language Univision about an "exit strategy" from Libya. "The exit strategy," Obama said, "will be executed this week -- in the sense that we will be pulling back from our much more active efforts to shape the environment. We will still be in a support role. We will be supplying jamming, intelligence and other assets unique to us."

It depends on what the meaning of "exit" is, I guess. ABC News White House reporter Jake Tapper responded to Obama's word games: "Planes in the air? Ships in the Mediterranean? Intelligence being provided? Doesn't sound like an exit strategy at all." But it was a typical Obama play of redefining words to mean something they have never meant before.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton also falsely downplayed our role in this war. "We did not lead this," Clinton said of Operation Odyssey Dawn. But Vice Adm. Bill Gortney of the Joint Chiefs of Staff sure made it sound like we did: "In these early days, the operation will be under the operational command of Gen. Carter Ham. ... And the commander of Joint Task Force Odyssey Dawn ... is Adm. Sam Locklear."

Gortney had his own moment of prevarication, speaking Saturday of "over 110 Tomahawk cruise missiles fired from both U.S. and British ships and submarines. ..." Turns out the Brits had fired two of those missiles. That's like talking about the time the NBA's Michael Jordan (69 points) and John Paxson (two points) poured in 71.

It's understandable the administration would want to downplay the U.S. role -- Americans have little appetite for another war, and so this White House wants to pretend this isn't a war. But official deception just means people can't trust the administration when it says the U.S. is pulling back or drawing down.

One of the starkest instances of Obama administration deception on Libya came from an unnamed "senior administration official" regarding the clear clash between this unauthorized entry into an offensive war and an emphatic statement Obama made in 2007: "The president does not have power under the Constitution to unilaterally authorize a military attack in a situation that does not involve stopping an actual or imminent threat to the nation."

When the Wall Street Journal pressed the administration official on this, the official claimed that Obama's campaign trail comments referred to "an invasion like we saw in Iraq." But that wasn't the question. Very simply, President Obama's actions don't match candidate Obama's rhetoric, but the administration twists words and facts to try and hide any discrepancy.

In domestic policy, this game has been played plenty of times: Obama makes a promise, Obama breaks the promise, Obama plays Clintonian word games to pretend he kept his promise.

Remember this?: "If you make less than $250,000 a year, you will not see any of your taxes increase one single dime." Obama raised tobacco taxes by April, and then under Obamacare he signed a tanning tax and authorized a fine -- which his lawyers say is really a tax -- on uninsured Americans, eliminated tax deductions for over-the-counter medications, and nibbled away at other tax deductions used by middle-class families. Yet still, Obama told Bill O'Reilly in February, "I haven't raised taxes once."

He pulled a similar stunt on lobbyists. "They won't work in my White House," he said. Then he hired more than 50 ex-lobbyists in top jobs, including Cabinet secretaries. Still, in his State of the Union, Obama said, "We have excluded lobbyists from policymaking jobs." When I pressed on this, a White House spokesman said, "As the president said, we have turned away lobbyists for many, many positions."

This is a president who apparently does not mind twisting words and flatly misleading his people. On tax deductions and the revolving door, this sort of prevarication is offensive.

On matters of war, Obama's tenuous relationship with the truth is far more disturbing.
