“Tell everyone that there is still a place in the Kingdom of Romania which has not bowed to Communism. As long as our heads are on our shoulders, this corner of the country will be free. Tell the people not to lose faith, for the day will come when the whole of Romania will be free. Pray God for it, so help us God.” --Ioan Gavrila Ogoranu, Romanian anti-communist fighter 1923-2006

LEGO my gun: S.I. Boy Faced Suspension Over Tiny Toy
A fourth grade New Dorp boy faced the prospect of suspension after the principal at his South Beach school saw him playing with an action figure carrying a toy machine gun.
Patrick Timoney, a 9-year-old student at PS 52, and friends were playing with LEGOs during their lunch period when the principal took him into her office over the two-inch toy gun carried by a standard policeman figure.
Margie Feinberg, a spokeswoman for the Department of Education, told the Staten Island Advance that there is a no-tolerance policy for toy guns in schools.
Therefore the principal, Evelyn Matroianni, deemed the pinky-sized toy gun suspension-worthy. Matroianni told Laura Timoney, the boy’s mother, that she would check with a DOE security administrator.
But Ms. Timoney told the Advance that the DOE administrator said no other action was necessary after the toy gun is confiscated and returned to the parents at the end of the day.
According to Ms. Timoney, while another child had an action figure holding an ax, her son was the only one to be approached by the principal.
"It's crazy," Ms. Timoney told the Advance, "He's missing class time, all for silly toys. The boys are just trying to relax. If there's a real threat, why not call the Police Department?"
Well, at least the little dangerous batstard wasn't taken out of his class in handcuffs or (God forbid) shot in the head by a SWAT team member. I think he should be very thankful for that.
Because they have too much time in their hands and a burning desire to take feel good but useless measures to reduce the number of murders perpetrated by gangs within city limits (over 600 last year), the Oakland City Council voted to pass a city ordinance prohibiting the sales of firearms and ammunition to law abiding citizens within city limits.
Never mind there is not a single firearms or ammunition dealer open for business in Oakland (yep, that's right - their number is zero) ; never mind the drug gangs responsible for the murders don't buy their guns and ammo in gun stores but out on the streets. And never mind regulating out of existence gun stores that don't exist in the first place will not inconvenience hardened criminals. All these arguments are such insignificant details for the geniuses who voted for the ban measure; you see, the most important thing is to show their constituents they are doing something - no matter how useless and laughable about the out of control violence making their city the murder capital of the U.S.
But the California gun owners are fighting back. And who would have thought? California, long regarded as a lost cause because of the most restrictive gun laws passed an imposed over the years against its law abiding citizens is nowadays on the forefront of the fight to restore the Second Amendment rights for the entire country. These days a grassroots organization of gun rights enthusiasts formed around the hugely popular Internet forum Calguns.com is spearheading the counterattack. The name of the organization: The Calguns Foundation. Here is a news report of what happened at the Oakland City Council meeting. Please note the reporter is mentioning the possibility of Calguns Foundation suing the City of Oakland.
Will the Oakland City Council members come to their senses and vote down the measure? Or will they follow the example of the Mayor of San Francisco who persisted into trampling on the Second Amendment rights at a cost of millions of dollars paid by the tax money of its constituents? We'll soon find out.
Update: NRA & CRPA (California Rifle And Pistol Assn.) submit their own letter threatening Oakland City Council with a lawsuit
Closing Guantanamo. The US is an imperialist, arrogant bully who must apologize and be cut to size. Waterboarding is torture. American troops are no better than the Nazi who are terrorizing innocent people in the middle of the night. The Islamists are fighting us because we did them wrong and because we help Israel.
These are just a few of the arguments Bin Laden is agreeing upon with our President and his cohorts of leftist drones (LGF's Charles Johnson included).
And if all this wasn't enough, the leftist-Islamofascist convergence is manifesting again. This time on...global warming!!!
CAIRO – Al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden has called for the world to boycott American goods and the U.S. dollar, blaming the United States and other industrialized countries for global warming, according to a new audiotape released Friday.
In the tape, broadcast in part on Al-Jazeera television, bin Laden warned of the dangers of climate change and says that the way to stop it is to bring "the wheels of the American economy" to a halt.
He blamed Western industrialized nations for hunger, desertification and floods across the globe, and called for "drastic solutions" to global warming, and "not solutions that partially reduce the effect of climate change."
Bin Laden has mentioned climate change and global warning in past messages, but the latest tape was his first dedicated to the topic. The speech, which included almost no religious rhetoric, could be an attempt by the terror leader to give his message an appeal beyond Islamic militants.

"For most people who are into AK and/or FAL rifles, you probably know who "Gunplumber" is on the FALFiles Internet forums. For those who do not; his name is T. Mark Graham, owner of Arizona Response Systems. He's a meticulous builder of AK's and FALS. He grew up here in Southern California - before it went socialist.
Gun owners can show support by NOT patronizing a business that does not support your 2A rights such as Claim Jumpers. That's too bad, my kids love their food."
Mr. Robert Ott President /CEO, Claim Jumper Restaurants robert_ott@claimjumper.com
It is with great sadness that last night brought to a close my 30 year relationship with Claim Jumper Restaurants. I started eating at Claim Jumper when I was still small enough to stand on the scale. I brought my date to the Laguna Hills location for Junior Prom back in 1985, and I'd take my mother to the Mission Viejo location whenever I visited. Here in Arizona, I was thrilled when you opened the Phoenix and then the Avondale location. I live half-way between the two and frequent both.
I brought my party to the Phoenix location last night for a celebration and was greeted by a large "No Firearms" sign on the door. I absolutely support your right to prohibit law-abiding citizens from carrying a firearm on your premises. I am happy for your success, as in these difficult economic times, you must be doing very well indeed to spit in the faces of such a large section of your market. My friends and I, we vote with our wallets, and will patronize those establishments that respect our right to self-defense. We also network. I will be relating my experiences on several mailing lists and discussion forums. I figure a thousand people will know by lunch time, and 10,000 by dinner. Or maybe they already know and I'm the slow one.
In any case, once again, thank you for clearly stating what you think of me and my 30 years of loyal patronage. You will not have me or any of my extensive network of associates sully your establishment again. I'll miss the blueberry muffins the most.
T. Mark Graham President Arizona Response Systems.

From News Busters: Behar Panel Blames Gender for Air America Failure; Says Liberals Too Sophisticated for Format with 'People Screaming at Them'
Joy Behar and her liberal friends: smug, elitist, hollow and clueless. Did I forgot something?
Oh yes: the combined IQ of all three of them is lower than that of a bag of hammers.
Just in case you wondered why some Islamic officials or heads of state don't wear neck ties, here is an explanation from the horse's mouth...err...the Islamic Center Of Beverly Hills website (yes, you read that right: Beverly Hills)
A few historical points: Crusaders in the 13th and 14th century were attacking Muslims and wanted to conquer Jerusalem. Their clothing was made of armor with a big cross over their chest. Later on, the cross became smaller and slowly changed to a white shirt and cravatt (neck tie). This resembles the cross and has become the symbol of western civilization, western domination, and capitalism.
When the Ottomon Empire (Islamic Empire) was defeated in this century by the West, the first thing the West did after dividing the country was to remove the Hejab from the women and take the turban and aba from the men. In Iran and Turkey, the popet government soldiers beat women with Hejab and men with aba. The West then started to make fun of our Eastern clothing and Hollywood started to promote the neck tie and jacket as a symbol of civilization and success. The West also started bringing liquor, gambling, night clubs and prostitution to the Eastern countries.
The West looked at the East as an army that has been defeated. They were not allowed to wear their own uniform and instead must wear the uniform of the conquerors and give up their own identity.
In the United States now, we must slowly go forward to gain our religious identity and start wearing Sunnah and promoting it to our youth so they will be proud of their Islamic identity. We cannot expect our women to wear Hejab when we do not wear aba and instead, wear a cross (neck tie) around our neck. ------------------------------ In summary, we recommend the following easy steps:
1. Do not wear a cross (neck tie) around your neck and please explain that to other Muslims.
2. Always have Tasbih in your hand to show your Islamic pride.
3. Keep your hair short.
4. Wear an Islamic hat (Kofi) whenever possible.
5. Grow your beard (2-3 inches long) if you can.
6. Wear aba over your jacket whenever you can especially when going to Islamic events or to the mosque.
7. Be modest; no silk, no gold, wear nice, clean and inexpensive clothing.
8. Our women should wear long, loose, nice, clean clothing with Hejab (head cover) just like Khadijeh and Fatimah (R.A.).
As a soldier in the army of God in America promoting Islam, this is our uniform, our leader is Prophet (PBUH) and our constitution is preserved in the Holy Quran.
That's it, folks! For the "soldiers of Allah in America" as they call themselves, the true Constitution is the Qu'ran. Stupid me, I always thought it was the Constitution adopted in 1787, the one all immigrants - including the Muslim ones swear allegiance to when they take US citizenship. As for the necktie = cross = infidel symbol = haram.
By the way, did you noticed our President lately? Last Sunday, while in MA stumping for the soon-to-be-loser Coakley, he was wearing a suit, a dress shirt but no tie.
Yesterday while spouting some BS about jobs in Ohio, again: suit, dress shirt but NO TIE.
For a President he is dressed casually FAR too often. Just sayin'
President Barack Obama will appear with politically embattled Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) in Las Vegas next month, according to a White House official.
Source Hey, look how well it worked for Coakley in Massachusetts! Hopefully after "helping" Reid Obamao goes and helps Pelosi then Kerry and Dodd, Barney and all the rest!! He's is such a vote getter isn't he!! Maybe it's time for the GOP to recognize Obamao's contribution to the success of conservative candidates and give him a diploma. Or at least send him a thank you note.

James Cameron: ‘Like the Redneck NRA Supporters They Are’
by John Nolte
This appears to be accurate. Both Ain’t It Cool News and JoBlo.com have posted James Cameron’s full “Avatar” script. To triple-check I went to the 20th Century-Fox site and found that they posted the same script, as well. After being as careful as possible (wouldn’t want to smear Cameron like he did the U.S. Marines. NOTE for Leftist hair-splitters: former Marines), I bring you a scene written by James Cameron that was cut from the final film but serves as a glimpse at the director’s childish prejudices and mindset:
INT. ARMOR BAY – DAY
TROOPERS issue automatic weapons and magazines to a long line of mine workers. The miners lock and load like the redblooded redneck NRA supporters they are.
BLASTING TECHS are setting radio-detonated primer charges into two-ton stacks of EXPLOSIVE COMPOUND. The stacks are band-strapped together on pallets.
TRACKING WITH SELFRIDGE, staring around him in growing dismay as he walks through the full-scale mobilization. He approaches Quaritch, who is barking orders amid a hive of activity around the ampsuits.
SELFRIDGE This thing is completely out of control!
Quaritch ignores him, turning away to focus on ordnance loading.
SELFRIDGE Listen to me! I am not authorizing you to turn the mine-workers local into a freakin’ militia!
You can see the full script here. The scene above can be found on page 125.
All of you redneck NRA supporters who paid to see Cameron's America trashing / military demeaning propaganda movie just made him a few dozen million dollar richer. Good job guys!
I for one have sent him an email saying I'm a middle aged NRA member born and raised in Eastern Europe, who speaks four languages and who first heard about the word "redneck" 10 years ago. But if my guns and the NRA membership automatically makes me a redneck, then I am damn proud to be one.
Los Angeles Times gives a nice pat on the head to LGF's Chuckie Johnson. Stabbing your former friends and allies in the back and getting in line with Obama and the neo-Marxist elites has its perks, isn't it Chuckie?
Too bad we did not forgot C.J. calling the LA Times "unethical and malfeasant" when the same fish wrap who is publishing today this puff piece on him, in 2008 refused to publish a report about Obama meeting with Palestinian activists - some of them suspected of very close ties with Hamas.
It's pretty clear Chuckie politics of today went further left and more jihad appeasing than those of his former nemesis, Daily Kos' Markos Moulistas. It is also very, very hard to believe C.J. was not afraid in the past when he was receiving death threat emails from Internet jihadists for posting pro-Israel/anti Palestinian material but somehow, all of sudden the Lizard Emperor chickened out and bought a new home in a safer "gated community" where the paid assassins of Pam Geller and Glenn Beck cannot reach him. I believe we all need to congratulate C.J. for becoming a new home owner. That's the American dream come true folks, right? However, I really can't make up my mind: is the stench emanating from Chuckie's new "safer" home smelling like Saudi money or Soros money?
CANTON, Ohio, Jan. 4 /Christian Newswire/ -- The highest-ranking Soviet and Eastern Bloc Intelligence Official ever to defect to America (in 1978) -- who went on to help Ronald Reagan win the Cold War -- has endorsed Paul Schiffer, Republican candidate for Congress in Ohio's 16th Congressional District. Pacepa escaped Romania to become an American citizen.
"Thirty-one years ago I paid with two-death sentences--from Communist Romania--for my desire to break with Marxism and become a citizen of the greatest country on earth. All former Soviet satellites have now 'defected' from Marx's socialism, which had transformed a third of the world into an abysmal 20th century feudalism. Great Britain, Italy, Germany, France and Greece have also abandoned their ruinous experiments with Marx's socialism.
General Ioan Mihai Pacepa, former chief of the Romanian foreign intelligence service and confident of the Ceausescu couple. His defection to the West proved to be a major blow to all communist dictators and an invaluable asset that helped Ronald Reagan better understand the inner workings of communist regimes and in the end, win the Cold War.
"Alas, now the virus of Marxism with its fatal governmental takeovers has started infecting our shores. If the Democratic Party has its way, it will transform the United States into a socialist country in all but name. The 2010 elections could prevent that catastrophe from happening.
More here You think a guy like Gen. Pacepa has enough expertise to recognize Marxists when he sees them?
Hey, you braindead liberal "journalists" from the mainstream media: did I get your attention? Do you feel outraged yet reading the headline above?
Are you ready to condemn these radical Christians and ask the public opinion to take position against them? Is this crime perpetrated in the name of Jesus Christ making your blood boil?
Good. Because this is what the real headline is:
Colleague of Murdered Orthodox Priest Beaten in Moscow By Radical Muslims RIA Novosti
The attack occurred on Saturday as priest Vitaly Zubkov was on his way to the St. Thomas church. "Three men attacked me. They struck me down and kicked me. At first, they beat me on the head and legs," Zubkov said.
Kirill Frolov, a friend of Sysoyev, said the attack on Zubkov was hardly accidental "taking into account that Father Vitaly was a friend of murdered missionary Father Daniil Sysoyev and that there were no attempts to rob him."
Sysoyev, 34, was shot down in his St. Thomas church in southern Moscow by a masked gunman on November 19. He was known for his active missionary work in converting Muslims and people seeking to quit religious sects into Christianity.
The priest, who was married with three children, had received numerous death threats.
Sysoyev was laid to rest at a church cemetery in the Russian capital on November 23.
Patriarch Kirill, who leads the Russian Orthodox Church, said by the coffin: "Being unable to offer any wise arguments against a priest's words in their mind and heart, and going against God's word, they cover him with libel and even raise their hand at him."
Liberal media: "Oh, so the story is about the colleague of a murdered Christian Orthodox priest being beaten by misunderstood Muslims. Not newsworthy. And after all, they both asked for it"
Britain: ten years after declaring virtually all types of firearms illegals and disarming its law abiding subjects, the socialist government of the UK is facing reality:
Meanwhile, in the "violent, obsessed with firearms" America where "practically you can buy a gun as easy you but a loaf of bread" the crime rate went down every single year since 2002 - the year when most States started passing laws allowing law abiding citizens to carry concealed handguns. Only in the first part of 2009, the FBI reported a 10 percent drop in murder and manslaughter.
Hear that Brady? Hear that Obama? Hear that Schumer, Feinstein, Kerry, Pelosi and the rest of you - gun grabbing, Constitution trampling, anti-American POS liberals?
The Grand Lizard Master (also holding the tiltles of First Lord of the Turncoat, Lord Chief Global Warmist, Commander-in-Chief of The "Ban The Christians" Forces, Lord High Admiral Of The Liberal Bottom-Sinking Fleet , Archbishop of Obama Asskissing Church, Lord Mayor Of Palin Smearville and Lord High Everything Else - a.k.a. Charles Johnson) is jumping today to Obama rescue (again) with another incredibly dumb piece in which is attempting to save the day for his Saviour by saying that:
All of the wingnut blogs are screaming that in his statement about the Northwest 253 terror attack, President Obama called the alleged terrorist an “isolated extremist.”
But what exactly did Obama said about the exploding underwear terrorist? Well, he said exactly this: the attacker is an isolated extremist. Here is the video:
Make note Obama not only called the jihadi scum "isolated extremist" like he acted all by himself but he also refused to call him an ISLAMIC TERRORIST.
So why is LGF's Chucky Johnson getting his panties in a wad about Fox News and conservative bloggers unloading on Obama? Because you see, in the same speech, President Obama also said this:
“A full investigation has been launched into this attempted act of terrorism, and we will not rest until we find all who were involved and hold them accountable.
Wait a minute Chucky! So which one of the two contradicting statements issued by your Savior Obama in the same speech is true? Was the underwear bomber an isolatedextremist (like in all by himself, lone wolf, sudden jihad syndrome case) or was he part of of a larger Al-Quaeda plot in which case he is NOT just an "isolated extremist" but a terrorist acting on behalf of the most dangerous and deadliest enemy of America?
Obviously, Charles doesn't find Obama's two exactly opposite statements to be a problem. He's too busy competing with Markos Moulistats for the first place in the Sucking Up to Obama marathon.
Hey Charles! UPDATE:
LGF reader Spare O'Lake asks:
I agree that he didn't mean that the terrorist acted alone. So what the heck DID he mean?
To which Chuckie gives a Moron of the Year Award answer:
Well, if you stop trying to find something evil in it, his statement is amazingly clear: the terrorist was "isolated" on the plane, as in, he was the only terrorist on the plane.
Uh...alright. I guess if you stop trying to find excuses for Obama, Chuckie's statement is amazingly clear: "I, Charles Johnson am an Obama ass kisser" as in "I am the only one who believe the totally ridiculous, laughable apologies I am making for my Saviour"
UPDATE #2
Chucky took notice of this blog entry and of course is throwing a hissy fit:
Charles #21 This is the kind of sick crap that's all over the right wing blogosphere: [Link: transsylvaniaphoenix.blogspot.com...] The blogger who posted this is a blatant liar who tried to deny he posted a comment at LGF advocating mass deportations -- I outed him as a liar, and he just continued lying.
Please note two things: 1. The Grand Poobah Chuckie doesn't address the issue at hand which I must repeat, it is his laughable and ridiculous excuse making and ass kissing for Obama - not even tangentially. 2. He is repeating the same falsehoods and made up accusations he made about me AFTER he turned his political stance hard left and into the Daily Kos / HuffPo camp, and more than one year AFTER he claims I made the offensive statement he is talking about.
Hey Chuckster...no really, let's see if you have an answer for this too: if what you are accusing me of saying is true, then why did you wait for an entire year to ban me? Oh, I know...I must have been an "isolated extremist"
Not holding my breath for an honest answer coming from this moron.

George my 9 year old rescued Giant Schnauzer is now fighting for his life. He was prescribed Previcox by his vet for his arthritis pains. Following the vet recommendation I administered the tablets with food. After only two days and two tablets he started projectile vomiting, drinking a lot of water, being dizzy and manifesting all the symptoms of poisoning.
I Googled the name of the drug "Previcox" and "side effects" and I wish I would have done it BEFORE giving giving George the drug. To my astonishment, there are hundreds and hundreds of personal testimonies written by people who administered their dogs the same drug, their pets manifested exactly the same symptoms like my George and finally, had their dogs ending up dead or barely escaped death with irreversibly damaged stomachs, liver, kidney or hearts.
"The FDA has released information concerning non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs for pets -- including Metacam, Deramaxx, Previcox and Rimadyl -- that shows they have been connected to 22,000 cases of illness in dogs, almost 3,000 of which were fatal."
What causes death by Previcox? Acording to one of the hundreds of testimonies I found on the Internet written by a dog owner who lost his pet to Previcox poisoning,
"The Previcox apparently starts first by forming ulcers on the stomach and as more Previcox is administered it becomes ulcer upon ulcer until the stomach acids (full of Previcox) begin to leak out. It seams it first attacks the kidneys and liver. Then it begins to destroy all the protective membranes that are protecting all of the other organs. In the end it makes its final attack on the heart."
Previcox is the veterinary version of the Vioxx (prescribed for arthritis in humans) and it is made by Merial which is a branch of Merck. As you may already know, Vioxx was pulled off the market by the FDA after thousands of people ended up dead after taking the drug. Yet, the same company continues to push Previcox which has the same risks and causes deaths in animals.
George vomited for the third time today and he is very weak, shaking...refused the yogurt but my wife cooked a little beef and carrot soup and gave it to him a few minutes ago, licked the bowl. We expect he will vomit it shortly but that's all we can do until tomorrow morning. We put plastic bags all over the bedroom floor, makes it easier to clean. We'll see what happens until tomorrow when the vet office opens.
I am royally pissed on the vet who did not warned me about the potential side effects and on the company who makes and pushes such a dangerous drug which is banned for humans; if George dies, I'll make taking this drug off the market one of my life goals. I just learned another side effect is extreme aggression (probably caused by pain) and read about a little girl disfigured by a dog who was given Previcox. Dog owners need to know what the risks associated with this drug are. I will start a website and put all the effort and Internet knowledge I am capable of to make it pop on top of every Google search when people are searching the name of this drug.
