Muslim President???

Muslim President??
Starting August 29 the Democratic National Convention will open with a focus on Islam. 20,000 Muslims are expected to attend according to the Bureau of Indigenous Muslim
Affairs (BIMA), the national Muslim American non-profit coordinating the
two days of events they claim are non-political.
”Jumah (prayer) at the DNC” begins August 29 and will start with a Friday afternoon jummah prayer followed by other unnamed programs and events, leading up to the Islamic Regal Banquet.
The following day will be an all day Islamic Cultural and Fun Fest which will
include discussions on the topics of Islamaphobia, Anti-Shariah, Middle Eastern
Crisis, Patriot Act, National Defense Authorization Act and more.
The purpose, according to BIMA, is to attract national and international attention to the plight of American Muslims and to hold political parties accountable for issues that affect them.
However, not all Muslims feel that BIMA represents them and M. Zuhdi Jasser M.D., Founder and President of the American Islamic Forum for Democracy, has expressed serious concerns.
Why has the Democratic National Convention has decided to promote and lend its name and
national political platform to the organizers of the Jummah at the DNC?. The leaders of
this event Jibril Hough and Imam Siraj Wahhaj as advertised are no moderates.
They are radicals.
These individuals embrace Islamist supremacy and have demonstrated support for
radical ideologies.
Hough and Wahhaj are leaders in the separatist American
Islamist movement.
This is not about their right of assembly. THIS IS ABOUT
the DNC calling this an official function
listing these radicals as typical of the DNC community and more importantly
about this organization speaking out AS representing supposedly typical
American Muslims (or ?Mainstream?).
If that is who the DNC is consorting with then all Americans should be very concerned!!!. When a radical imam like Siraj Wahhaj who,in 1995,
said it his duty and the duty of Muslims to replace the US Constitution with
the Quran- then we need to speak up!

Just one more day

As a boy of 6 years old I remember getting up at 6 AM and walking with my Papa to his cafe in town. He fed me breakfast and I went to school.

One morning everything was covered with ice. As we walked Papa held my hand because I was slipping and sliding, but he walked steadily without falling. I remember, too, how unafraid and proud I was that this big strong man was my Papa.

As I grew older that feeling never left me, but sadly, the need for him to hold my hand became less important. I graduated from high school when I was sixteen and left home for college.

In November of 1944 Papa had a stroke. It partially paralyzed his right side and he could hardly say a word, so his working days were over.

I don’t know what I was thinking. Papa had always been there for me and I suppose in my teenage mind I thought he would recover and be like always.

When I turned 18 I joined the navy. After discharge I went directly back to college. Papa told me many times his desire was for me to graduate from college and, in my mind, getting back in school was most important so I did not even go see Mama and Papa.

Why am I saying all this?

Because on June 1, 1946 I received a call from my brother that Papa was dying and asking for me. I got on a bus and got home about 1 AM on June 2nd. Papa died about 30 minutes before I got home.

I am 86 now and for 66 years I have regreted not having JUST ONE MORE DAY with my Papa.

As you read this you can probably recall one or more similar events in your life, and wish you had had JUST ONE MORE DAY or maybe just an hour.

As for me I hereby resolve to do my best to have no more regrets because I did not have JUST ONE MORE DAY .

It has now been 54 hours since the bombshell ruling by the Supreme Court.
I have wrestled with the decision since it was made, wondering how Judge Roberts could forsake his conservative principles and dump this socialist program in our lap.
Today the light finally came on and I am no longer upset with Judge Roberts. In fact, I have come to believe his decision was brilliant.
Let me explain. In 2008 we, the Americans, were suckered in to voting for this smooth talking communist muslim black man who promised CHANGE. Along with him came a democrat Congress, who bowed at his every whim.
The result was a staggering increase in our debt, a socialist oriented cabinet, and a socialist health care program that nobody read called Obamacare.
Who’s fault is it? In Judge Roberts mind, we the people are the culprits. Who has to fix the problem? We the people do, NOT THE COURTS. He ruled the “mandate” was a tax, a massive tax, which Obama swore many times was not a tax. So the “no tax increase” now becomes Obama’s Achilles heel.
I think in Judge Roberts mind, he thinks the people caused the problem, and the people can fix the problem in November. If we do not fix it then, then we will just have to wallow in the pig pen we will have reserved for ourselves.
