What did the American General say to the Iranian Ambassador? (Humor)

Tweet

Politically incorrect humor for your Memorial Day barbecue!

The Iranian Ambassador to the UN had just finished giving a speech and walked out into the lobby of the convention center where he was introduced to a U.S. Marine General.

As they talked the Iranian said, "I have just one question about what I have seen in America ."

The General said, "Well, anything I can do to help."

The Iranian whispered, "My son watches this show called Star Trek and in it there is Kirk who is Canadian, Chekhov who is Russian, Scotty who is Scottish, Uhura who is black, and Sulu who is Japanese, but there are NO Muslims.

My son is very upset and doesn't understand why there aren't any Iranians, Iraqis, Afghans, Egyptians, Palestinians, Saudis, Syrians, or Pakistanis on Star Trek."

The General laughed, leaned toward the Iranian Ambassador and whispered in his ear, "That's because it takes place in the future..."

Soldier beheaded in Woolwich,UK with terrorist issuing warning! (Video)

Tweet

If this had occurred in the U.S. would the Obama administration have somehow found a way to call this act of terrorism workplace violence?

From The Investigative Project on Terrorism,

'A British soldier is dead, and two suspected terrorists were shot in a shocking daylight attack outside London Wednesday.

Some accounts say the soldier was shot, while other witnesses described the attack as a "beheading," the London Telegraph reports, and ITV News obtained video of a man with bloody hands carrying knives and a meat cleaver and warning "you people will never be safe" and saying "We swear by almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you."

He also said, "We must fight them as they fight us. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."

Other witnesses reported hearing the attackers shout "Allahu Akhbar" – God is Great – as they attacked the soldier outside Royal Artillery Barracks in Woolich. The victim was not in uniform.

The attackers left his body in the street and reportedly stayed nearby, "waving knives and a gun, and asked people to take pictures of them "as if they wanted to be on TV or something,'" the BBC reports.

Officials are calling it an Islamist terror attack.'

For Obama, OWS thugs and criminals good, Tea Party bad! A look back...

Tweet

The Obama administration has not called these in, yet!

It seems that the Obama administration has attempted to stymie the political process in America and may have stolen an election using Chicago-style tactics in the IRS scandal! 

Now it has called out armed guards in an attempt to silence and discredit Tea Party protestors who in the past have never exhibited any tendency towards either violence or crime!

As we approach the Memorial Day holiday that honors those who died in the service of our country, Barack Obama and his administration appear to actively be attempting to transform America into their own vision of communist Russia where disagreement with the government was strongly discouraged and typically punished severely.

Before the treatment of the Tea Party is examined, however, let's take a walk down memory lane to the Occupy Wall Street protests and protestors that the President and the rest of the Left were squarely behind.

These liberal Michael Moore types, aka the 1%ers that the OWS movement was railing and protesting against, would speechify constantly about the virtues of these marauding bands of criminals, anarchists, 60's style revolutionaries and unions.

They would talk about the rights of these people to voice their disgust with the very capitalist way of life that America was built on and their demands for a redistribution of wealth from those who had worked hard and earned it to those who simply want it.

These left-wing elites would wax romantically about this movement that possessed no articulated goal other than fomenting civil unrest and hatred for what it is that America stands for.

Now if your memory has dimmed and you have forgotten about the truth behind OWS, here is a short reminder.

From The Political Commentator in November 2011,

Where are all of the supporters of #OWS now that the movement has shown its spots as groups of marauding nomads bent on civil disobedience, disruption of daily life and yes, perpetrators of lots and lots of crime!

The liberal politicians and Hollywood types fell over each other two months ago running for the microphones to heap praise on the #OWS movement although little was really known about them.

It was a scene straight out of the "Arab Spring" where there was rush by some, most notably President Obama, to back and support groups that we knew nothing about.

Now, in countries like Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Syria and Libya, the very groups it was feared would move into power are in fact doing so.

Similarly, the #OWS movement across the country has shown itself to be a loosely banded group of people, likely being manipulated from above, who are hellbent on pushing an agenda that is very difficult to identify beyond civil disobedience and the disruption of everyday life for the very 99% they claim to represent.

Perhaps the fact that groups and individuals such as the Communist Party USA,American Nazi Party, Louis Farrakhan, Ayatollah Khamenei, the North Korean Government, David Duke, Hugo Chavez, the Revolutionary Guard of Iran, Hezbollah, Black Panthers, 9/11 Truth.org, Marxist Student Union and White Revolution support the movement speaks the volumes that most in the movement cannot articulate! (Source)

Below is a list of some of the crime committed by #OWS nationwide, followed by a short list of those "celebrities and politicians" who have supported the movement since the inception.

Question: Now that these people see the #OWS movement for what it is, where is their rush to the microphone now disavowing the actions and tactics? Why the deafening silence?

#OWS Crime!

1. NY: 10/1/2011 — Police Arrest More Than 700 Protesters on Brooklyn Bridge

2. Madison, WI: 10-27-2011 — Madison Occupiers Lose Permit Due to Public Masturbation

Armed DHS personnel at a peaceful Tea Party protest!

Now fast forward to the Tea Party movement whose stated goal is to limit government spending and taxes on we the people so that the long-term viability of the United States can be assured.

They are peaceful, organized and possess a well articulated message that scares the crap out of those leaders whose very way of political life depends on vast amounts of spending and waste.

So instead of canonizing Tea Partiers in the same way they did OWS politicians, beginning at the top in the White House, seem to be doing everything within the law and apparently some things outside of it to stop them from speaking out.

The IRS attempt to prevent Tea Party and other conservative groups from gaining tax-exempt status is just one glaring example.

Sending in armed troops for a peaceful St. Louis protest in order to depict the group to the rest of the country as a bunch of crazies is another, which is exactly what took place yesterday.

I suppose, at the end of the day, Americans should question whether there are any limits regarding the lengths that Barack Obama and his administration will go to silence those who disagree with them?

Up until now, the answer is seemingly no!

A nod is as good as a wink to a blind man, comrades!

How do you spell arrogance, hubris and chutzpah? (Video)

Tweet

Trick question because they are all spelled correctly in the title, but there actually is one other way to spell all three: OBAMA!

This video shows the President telling a crowd of his constituents that he doesn't get caught up in chasing every 'fleeting issue' that seem to consume others in Washington.

You know what I'm talking about.

Things like:

• The IRS trying, and likely succeeding in changing the outcome of a presidential election by targeting one specific party, 
• Spying on the media and by extension those who speak with the media, 
• The fact that on his watch four Americans may have needlessly died and U.S. sovereign territory was invaded while his administration sat back and did nothing to stop it.
• And who knows what else that will come out in the future as the media is finally learning about who it is they have been protecting all of this time!

Huge issues to you and I but simply minutia that is more annoyance than priority to this President.

President Obama, the poster child for arrogance, chutzpah and hubris!

No clue Americans! (Video)

Tweet

Meet some of New York's 'low information' voters!

They likely will have a better idea about who won 'American Idol' or 'Dancing with the Stars' than they will about two of the biggest scandals rocking the highest corridors of U.S. government, the Benghazi cover-up and IRSgate.

It's another example of how ignorant many of Americans are to what their government is doing!

And how uninterested they are in finding out!

This fact helped lead to Barack Obama winning two terms in the White House, but even the 'Teflon President' may have met his match this time as the facts and a scorned media may lead to his downfall!

Nassau County Executive Ed Mangano going back...

Tweet

...and then forward with his vision of Nassau County, New York's future!

Many who read this article will not be from New York State let alone Nassau County on Long Island and will therefore ask themselves why they should care about what goes on there.

The answer is simple!

Because the administration of Nassau County Executive Ed Mangano is a roadmap for any governmental entity that wants to provide itself with the best model for achieving financial stability and the people who live there and companies that do business there an environment with the greatest potential for them to succeed and thrive.

Jobs, stable taxes, an end to government waste and creating an environment that's appealing for businesses both old and new!

Political Analysis of Nassau County Government

For those who read The Political Commentator on a consistent basis you know that the opinions offered here typically have to do with national and international issues with a particular focus on national security.

Much time is also spent questioning the motives and policies of the Obama administration when it comes to moving the country forward in the right direction.

Today, however, as a resident of Nassau County in New York State, my focus is much closer to home.

The adage that all politics is local has held true in the past and still holds very true today.

As a concerned citizen who owns a home, a business and who has kids in school I, along with over 1.3 million of my neighbors, also have a huge stake in the successful and thriving future of Nassau County.

Past Democrat administrations in Nassaus County, including the prior Suozzi administration, have taken the opposite tack to the Mangano mission statement above.

County Executive Mangano looks towards 'jobs, stable taxes, an end to government waste and the creation of an environment that's appealing for businesses both old and new' as the preferred method for maintaining the best quality of life for those who live and/or work here!

On-the-other-hand, Democrats in the past have implemented policies that resulted in bloated infrastructure, deficit spending, budget shortfalls and tax hikes that made Nassau County unattractive for both existing businesses and those who may be considering a move of their personnel and operations here.

And, as any amateur economist can tell you, a loss of businesses results in a loss of jobs, high unemployment and a need to raise taxes in order to make up for budget shortfalls that exacerbate existing monetary problems and that brings on new ones as well.

Democrat Tom Suozzi now wants another shot to do more of what he has done in the past. Can Nassau County and its citizens afford for that to happen?

The Ed Mangano vision for a thriving Nassau County

To make a long story short, yesterday I once again had the pleasure of meeting and listening to Ed Mangano articulate his vision for Nassau County going forward.

And while a vision for the future is all well and good, at the same time I can also look at the tangible results that he has accomplished during his administration.

The results of his policies since taking office are obvious to any Nassau resident who opens a tax bill and sees stability, opens a Newspaper and sees businesses choosing to stay here and others to move here or who examines the employment statistics and sees a Nassau County unemployment rate of 6.4% compared to a New York State level of 8.2% and a national level of 7.6%. (Source as of March 2013)

Mangano cut $290 million is wasteful government spending eliminating over 1,700 positions, eliminated patronage jobs, implemented public-private partnerships and more.

Critical for homeowners such as myself, he eliminated the 16% property tax hike that had been planned by the Suozzi administration and equally as important has held the line since.

If only local school districts could say the same!

And he has helped to bring or keep here in Nassau County over 18,000 jobs.

The botton-line?

Can Nassau County residents afford to go back to the type of borrow and spend mentality that created huge deficits, resulted in higher taxes and that threatened to drive people out rather than bring new people, businesses and jobs in?

If you believe that the same old Democrat way of doing business is bad for Nassau County and by extension bad for you and your way of life, then get behind Ed Mangano for another term as County Executive!

The Political Commentator offers its wholehearted endorsement for Ed Mangano's performance as the County Executive of Nassau County!
