Keeping it classy, Mr President: Obama
describes Romney as 'a bulls***ter'

Daily Mail [UK], by Toby Harnden Original Article

When asked whether he had a message for a six-year-old supporter, President Barack Obama took the opportunity to describe his opponent Mitt Romney as 'a bulls***ter'. The extraordinary comment - most mainstream media outlets decline to print such a word - came at the end of an interview with 'Rolling Stone' when Obama was asked one of the softest softball questions ever lobbed at him. As he left the Oval Office, Eric Bates, executive editor of 'Rolling Stone', told Obama that he had asked his six-year-old if there was anything she wanted him to say to the president and

"Ikea has obeyed the wild Wahhabi regime of the Saudis and 'adapted' its catalogue by Shariah by deleting all of the images of women and girls," feminist movement Femen, which claimed responsibility for the protest action, said on its website. The three women, aged 32, 23 and 22, were fully clothed when they entered the Ikea store near Hamburg in northern Germany. In the toilets, however, they removed their tops and painted German flags over their breasts and daubed feminist messages across

In recent days, President Obama has been ramping up the rhetoric on the campaign trail, trying to convince voters they cannot trust Mitt Romney. Obama has suggested on many occasions that Romney has been dishonest with regard to his tax plan and other proposals. But in a recent Rolling Stone interview, he was a bit more frank in his assessment of the former Massachusetts governor.

In a recent Rolling Stone interview, President Obama had an uncharacteristically frank assessment of Gov. Mitt Romney. In the article by Douglas Brinkley, Obama is referring to a six-year-old girl who told her dad to tell the president, “you can do it,” referring to winning on Election Day. “You know, kids have good instincts,” Obama told Rolling Stone. “They look at the other guy and say, ‘Well, that’s a bull****ter, I can tell.’”

DNC delegate and partisan Democrat lawyer Gloria Allred attended the “30 Days to Victory” Obama fundraiser at the Nokia Theatre in Los Angeles on October 7th…featuring George Clooney and musical acts Katy Perry, Stevie Wonder, Jennifer Hudson, Bon Jovi and Earth, Wind & Fire. After the fundraiser, Allred admitted to O’Reilly Factor correspondent Jesse Watters that she “just had a few words with the President” backstage, “he had some very kind words for me,” and “knows of my work…” but would not elaborate more on the details of her conversation. Now, two weeks later Allred is

Parents will only be allowed to have two children before facing curbs on benefits, Iain Duncan Smith revealed today. The Work and Pensions Secretary took aim at the ‘madness’ of taxpayers subsiding poorer people to have ever-bigger families. He said for too long money had been spent trapping people on state handouts, as he set out how the government hopes to save £10billion in savings from the welfare budget by 2016. Ahead of a lecture in Cambridge today, Mr Duncan Smith said people in work make decisions about having children based on their finances and those on benefits should do

When Ann Romney cooks for the Romney clan, she goes big. “I always start at Costco,” Romney said on the “Rachel Ray Show” today as the audience watched pre-taped video of her pushing an over-sized grocery cart at the bulk-goods store. Zooming around the store that she’ didn’t name by location, Romney grabbed large bags of spinach, several containers of frozen cream puffs and pre-cooked rotisserie chicken. “The great thing about frozen desserts, they’re always ready to go,” Romney gushed. For roughly $4.50 per person – a $137.50 tab – Romney can feed all

Gloria Allred dropped her big October surprise this week. The news about Mitt Romney's testimony in a divorce is a little anti-climactic, but Allred is getting tons of press nonetheless. How does she manage to take up so much of the spotlight? Here's a quick history of her ascent. Allred, a former high school teacher, graduated from LA's Loyola Law School when she was almost 33 years old. She went on to become a representative for the National Organization of Women, according to this New York Magazine profile.

Who Is Fethullah Gülen?

Controversial Muslim preacher, feared Turkish intriguer—and “inspirer” of the largest charter school network in America. With the American economy in shambles, Europe imploding, and the Middle East in chaos, convincing Americans that they should pay attention to a Turkish preacher named Fethullah Gülen is an exceedingly hard sell. Many Americans have never heard of him, and if they have, he sounds like the least of their worries.

Obama/Allred 'October Surprise'

As I write this, Barack Obama's gal-pal Gloria Allred and the Boston Globe have aligned themselves with the Chicago Machine in a partisan crusade to launch an October Surprise against Mitt Romney. That we all know. What you might not know is that Allred's client, Maureen Sullivan, the woman pushing to unseal the gag order on her own divorce records, is an embittered leftie, a Huffington Post "Super User," and a vicious anti-Mormon bigot. (Snip) Even though a gag order makes it illegal for Ms. Sullivan to publicly discuss her case, apparently this hasn’t stopped her online.

Gloria Allred’s Worst Nightmare —

Reports from inside the courtroom in Boston at which The Boston Globe is seeking access to Mitt Romney’s testimony in the divorce case of the founder of Staples indicate that the Judge will authorize the release of the transcript to The Globe, but will not lift the gag order on the parties to the divorce, including Gloria Allred’s Mormon-hating client, Maureen Sullivan. Presumably that means that the Mormon-hating client’s representative also cannot speak on behalf of her Mormon-hating client to put the “context” on it.

Almost certain to come up well short of the net gain of 25 seats she needs to become Speaker again, House minority leader Nancy Pelosi has called party leadership elections for Nov. 29, well after the Nov. 6 election, setting off speculation across Washington that she may not run for leader again. More stories here and here and here. House leaders usually call for leadership elections quickly to shore up support and thwart challengers. Asked about the rumors, Pelosi spokesperson Drew Hammill referred to his earlier comments that they are “ridiculous.”

MUCH OF THE 2012 presidential campaign has dwelt on the past, but the key questions are who could better lead the country during the next four years — and, most urgently, who is likelier to put the government on a sounder financial footing. That second question will come rushing at the winner as soon as the votes are tallied. Absent any action, a series of tax hikes and spending cuts will take effect Jan. 1 that might well knock the country back into recession. This will be a moment of peril but also of opportunity.

Shortly after the Sept. 11 attack on a U.S. consulate in Libya, the Pentagon responded by moving military assets into the region, but some former defense officials say it was too little, too late. By the morning after the initial violence, Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans were dead, victims of two separate assaults several hours apart. “For the U.S. military to say they couldn’t move ... one aircraft in eight hours, I say it's time to relieve the people in chain of command," Bing West, an assistant defense secretary under President Reagan, told Fox News.

Chris Stevens was at the Benghazi mission at the time of the attack, and that the group Ansar al-Sharia had taken credit for the attack.

Eric Holder changed his name in 2002 to Shekem Amsu Khnemu. Look up “Amsu” on the baby-name website called She Knows, and you find “personification of reproduction.” The name fits. The 49-year-old Lincoln man owes support for 14 children in Nebraska. In Lancaster County, Khnemu owes nearly $80,000 in back child support in cases dating back to November 1984, according to county records. His most recent child support order started in February 2011. In addition, he is named in 15 paternity suits by nine women in Lancaster and Douglas counties.

MOUNT ARAFAT, Saudi Arabia- Muslims are starting their annual hajj pilgrimage by ascending Mount Arafat in Saudi Arabia on a day pilgrims believe offers them a chance to repent their sins. Saudi authorities say some 3.4 million Muslims from more than 300 nations are performing hajj this year. Thousands of tents on Mount Arafat, about 20 kilometers (12 miles) east of Mecca, accommodate the pilgrims. Many spent the night there before Thursday's worship. Muslims believe the Prophet Muhammad delivered his last sermon on Mount Arafat, or the Mountain of Mercy, where he stressed equality among all of Islam's followers.

President Barack Obama will briefly visit Chicago today to cast his ballot early -- the first sitting president to do so. Democrats have been aggressively trying to gain an advantage over Republicans in states that allow early voting. When Obama announced that he would be voting early, he said on Twitter, "If your state has early voting, join me," and directed followers to a link with more information about early voting. Obama dominated early voting in 2008, giving him an edge over Republican John McCain well before Election Day.
