Women: Sen. Bob Menendez paid us
for sex in the Dominican Republic

Daily Caller, by Matthew Boyle Original Article

Posted By: Drive- 11/1/2012 8:09:52 AM Post Reply

Two women from the Dominican Republic told The Daily Caller that Democratic New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez paid them for sex earlier this year. In interviews, the two women said they met Menendez around Easter at Casa de Campo, an expensive 7,000 acre resort in the Dominican Republic. They claimed Menendez agreed to pay them $500 for sex acts, but in the end they each received only $100. The women spoke through a translator in the company of their attorney, Melanio Figueroa.

Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein was arrested Wednesday morning in east Texas while attempting to bring food and Halloween candy to protesters camping out in trees to oppose the Keystone XL pipeline, according to anti-pipeline activists. Stein was taken to the Wood County jail and charged with criminal trespassing, a class B misdemeanor, said Kim Huynh, a spokesman for the Tar Sands Blockade. Opponents of the pipeline have climbed some trees in the path of the pipeline in Winnsboro, Tex., and have been there for 38 days. Stein’s Web site said she and three other women were attempting

Stealth Islamist Charter
Schools Under Investigation

FrontPage Magazine, by Arnold Ahlert Original Article

Posted By: Judy W.- 11/1/2012 7:50:03 AM Post Reply

The charter school movement associated with Turkish Muslim cleric Fethullah Gulen is under federal investigation. If one believes that the battle for the nation’s soul is occurring, not just in Washington, D.C., but in schools across the nation, the steady advance of Turkish-Gulen Charter Schools may be cause for alarm. Fethullah Gulen is a Turkish Islamic cleric who fled his native country in 1998, after being charged with seeking to overthrow the secular Turkish government. He currently lives in exile at a 28-acre mountain complex in the Pocono Mountains, with more than $25 billion of assets at his command.

Missing Bush in Northeast Electrical Outage

The power outages states are encountering in the Northeast did not have to happen. During the Bush years, Democrats rejected plans to upgrade the electrical grid system in the country because they believed Bush and Cheney were just rewarding "cronies" who helped get them elected (sort of like Obama giving billions to now bankrupt solar companies whose CEOs supported his election). Here is the Bush Administration report advocating for upgrades. Too bad its implementation was blocked by Dems in Congress.

Sixty Percent of US Muslims
Reject Freedom of Expression

After violent Muslim reactions to the amateurish "Innocence of Muslims" video, which simply depicted a few of the less salutary aspects of Muhammad's biography, international and domestic Islamic agendas have openly converged with vehement calls for universal application of Islamic blasphemy law. This demand to abrogate Western freedom of expression was reiterated in a parade of speeches by Muslim leaders at the UN General Assembly. The US Muslim community echoed such admonitions, for example during a large demonstration in Dearborn, Michigan, and in a press release by the Islamic Circle of North America.

The War on "Obama Defectors"

Townhall, by Debra Saunders Original Article

Posted By: Judy W.- 11/1/2012 7:31:03 AM Post Reply

NARAL Pro-Choice America is targeting what it calls "Obama defectors": female voters who supported Barack Obama in 2008 but now are considering voting for Mitt Romney. Defectors? That's a term usually reserved for Syrian troops who go AWOL or adults who escaped the yoke of authoritarian regimes. The left's unabashed use of the word "defector" suggests a feeling of ownership -- as if, having voted for Obama once, female voters are conscripts, property of the (all kneel) Democratic Party. Democrats usually are masters at co-opting language.

Mitt Romney, Throwback

Townhall, by Paul Greenberg Original Article

The policies Mitt Romney advocates might be quite new after four years of this administration, but his language is a golden oldie. By now, the retro phrases that punctuate his vocabulary have acquired a name of their own: Mittisms. Michael Barbaro and Ashley Parker, a couple of New York Times reporters, compiled an impressive list of them in a news story that ran in our paper the other Sunday. To run through them is to take a trip into the past: When he fell in love with his wife, Mitt Romney wasn't just in love, he was "smitten."

Benghazi Reveals Obama-Islamist Alliance

The nature of the Benghazi disaster is now clear. Ambassador Stevens was engaged in smuggling sizable quantities of Libyan arms from the destroyed Gaddafi regime to the Syrian rebels, to help overthrow the Assad regime in Syria. [Snip] For the last four years, the Obama policy has been to offer aid and comfort violent Islamic radicals in the delusional belief that their loyalty can be bought.

Au Revoir, Mr. President

WASHINGTON -- Reviewing the last few months of this tumultuous presidential campaign, I see the debates as having a wondrous salience. The first was the most momentous since Nixon vs. Kennedy, though that 1960 confrontation was mostly a matter of cosmetics. Listening to it on radio, many in the audience came away thinking that the participant with the five-o'clock shadow had won. That would have been Richard Nixon. In debate this time around, Mitt Romney hammered Barack Obama mercilessly. Under the ongoing assault Obama's knees buckled and he repeatedly looked glassy-eyed.

To help storm victims,

Benghazi Obama's Core Deceit

American Spectator, by Peter Ferrara Original Article

The basic, important facts about the Benghazi disgrace are in the public record now. American Ambassador Chris Stevens started requesting additional security as early as February. The Obama Administration not only refused additional security, it actually cut security, removing a well armed unit from the Libyan embassy in August. The Obama Administration should have known that the danger would increase on the anniversary of September 11. But it sent no additional security for that day either. The reasoning seemed to be that President Obama did not want to inflame Muslim sensibilities with a show of American force

Senate control teeters

WASHINGTON — Democrats appear poised to retain control of the Senate, but this year’s forecasts are full of more uncertainty than usual. A host of unknowns could affect the 10 or so races too close to call: Turnout. Ground game. Last-minute ads. Presidential coattails. Weather. Democrats now control 53 of the Senate’s 100 seats. Twenty-three of those Democratic seats are up for re-election, compared with just 10 in Republican hands. Republicans need a net gain of four seats for their first majority in six years, three if Mitt Romney wins, allowing a Vice President Paul Ryan to cast tie-breaking votes.

Towns in Sandy's path did
little to prepare for floods

USA Today, by Thomas Frank & Brad Heath Original Article

Many coastal cities and towns slammed by Hurricane Sandy have done little to protect themselves from flood damage, ignoring federal incentives even as they have been flooded repeatedly, a USA TODAY analysis of federal records shows. More than 100 municipalities in areas that were declared a federal emergency this week have received the worst ratings from Washington under a program that rewards communities for trying to minimize flood damage. Roughly 1,000 communities across the U.S. have won discounts of 10% or more for their property owners through the program.

Johnny Can't Lead

Something the Washington Post's Ezra Klein wrote yesterday reminded us of a song first recorded some time before young Ezra's birth. The tune is called "Johnny Can't Read," and it appeared on Don Henley's solo album "I Can't Stand Still." The lyrics describe a directionless young man, just having a good time ("Football, baseball, basketball games / Drinkin' beer, kickin' ass and takin' down names"). There are a lot of things Johnny is good at. He can dance, love, push, shove, hang out, talk tough, get down and throw up. There's just one problem: Johnny can't read.

Save General Motors From
Bankruptcy, Vote For Mitt Romney

President Obama has been touting his bailout of General Motors as a reason for people in Michigan and Ohio to vote for him. However, there is one small problem with his argument. Regardless of the past, GM’s only hope for long-term survival nowis if Mitt Romney wins on November 6. If Obama is reelected, GM is doomed to a second bankruptcy (or to another taxpayer bailout). This is because Obama is committed to doubling down on the two policies that drove GM bankrupt in the first place: a weak, unstable dollar,

WHO Wants You—to Stop Smoking

The World Health Organization (WHO) is facing criticism for its cigarette and tobacco control proposals at an upcoming November conference. WHO is considering an excise tax of up to 70 percent on cigarettes as well as new restrictions on electronic cigarettes that do not contain tobacco. As previously reported by the Free Beacon, the WHO Framework Convention on Tobacco Control indicated it might put a cigarette tax on the table at its November 12-17 conference in Seoul, Korea. WHO says the taxes could raise more than $5 billion in funds for world health efforts.

Bias: At an event for Hurricane Sandy victims, reporters pummel Mitt Romney to answer questions about FEMA. This is the same press corps that refuses to ask President Obama a single tough question about Benghazi. Clearly worried about a Romney victory next week, the mainstream press apparently thinks it's found the "October surprise" — Romney's alleged vulnerability on FEMA because of an answer he'd given to a debate question more than a year ago. Here's how a pool reporter described the scene in Ohio, where Romney organized a Sandy relief effort:

Obama Just Does Not
Like People Very Much

American Thinker, by Ed Lasky Original Article

Many Americans find repellent a president who condescends to them, patronizes them, scolds and berates them. Such a president does not show that he cares about them. Despite hagiographic media coverage in the 2008 campaign and beyond, Barack Obama is being perceived as such a man by a large number of Americans. When candidate Barack Obama spoke about "the bitter clingers" (or dismissed farmers' concerns about their livelihood by suggesting that they grow arugula -- a modern-day "let them eat cake"), these were not mere gaffes.

Weird Uncle Joe Biden showed up to campaign for Barack Obama in Florida today, and man, was he on top of his weird uncle game. "I'm being a good Biden today," he said. How good? Well first, it being Florida and really sunny, Uncle Joe wore his signature aviators to speak at rallies—a perfect look for a Biden-licious day. He also talked about running for office...four years from now. At an unscheduled stop in Sarasota at old-timey restaurant Station 400, Uncle Joe was feeling good, hugging "aging groupies," as Los Angeles Times' Michael A. Memoli observed.

Massive flooding caused by Sandy’s wrath has led to widespread power outages and home damage. But also caught in the fray were animals--both domestic and in zoos and aquariums--left to weather the vicious storm on their own. Now that the danger has passed, hundreds of pet owners are taking to social media so they can be reunited with their beloved pets. Though it is unclear of the scope and breadth of it, Facebook page ‘Hurricane Sandy Lost and Found Pets’ already has more than 6,000 likes.

Sandy's a disaster, not

Rahm Emanuel gets credit for saying, in 2008, during the midst of the financial collapse, “You never let a serious crisis go to waste. And what I mean by that it's an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.” But way back in 1996, it was President Clinton’s FEMA administrator, James Lee Witt, who put it best when he said, “Disasters are very political events.” Unlike Emanuel, Witt – who was testifying before Congress on corruption in government disaster management -- was lamenting the fact that crises are politicized, not celebrating it.

For the small school of political analysis that draws its inspiration from the great French 17th-century philosopher René Descartes, the cardinal methodological rule is to begin from what one can know “so clearly and distinctly as to exclude all ground of doubt.” The only important fact about the election contest today that meets this stringent threshold is that someone named either Barack Obama or Mitt Romney will be declared president, most likely on November 7.Beginning from this point of certainty, Cartesians are already at work surveying the possible alternative post-November 7 political landscapes. “I prognosticate. Therefore I am.”

The warnings came, again and again. For nearly a decade, scientists have told city and state officials that New York faces certain peril: rising sea levels, more frequent flooding and extreme weather patterns. The alarm bells grew louder after Tropical Storm Irene last year, when the city shut down its subway system and water rushed into the Rockaways and Lower Manhattan. On Tuesday, as New Yorkers woke up to submerged neighborhoods and water-soaked electrical equipment, officials took their first tentative steps toward considering major infrastructure changes that could protect the city’s fragile shores

On Saturday, Ward woke up and realized he needed to post something on SOS’s page.
