Off to LA-LA land..

for a few days. 

See you when I get back, possums.

Okay, they shouldn't be wearing the abaya, but don't you think running them over...

...is a little harsh, dude?

(H/t to the omnipotent, Jeffrey Imm.  Without you I'm nothing, JI.)

(P.P.S.  Read my startling true confession.  When I am shopping at Ross Dress for Less and see all the Muslim women (dragging 4 kids behind them) in their hijabs, niqabs, burkas and abayas, I too, find my fingers itching to snatch the offending garb off dey heads.)

But I digress, CAIR is already on the case so it could be a set up, too.  They do have a history of such behavior. 

Just saying. 

Here's the story:

Islandia Man (Ed. Note: 'allegedly') tries to run down Muslim mom, daughter.

An Islandia man was charged thursday with threatening to kill a Muslim woman and her 20-year-old daughter and trying to run them down with his car at a Smithtown gas station, a misdemeanor charge that Muslim groups condemned as too light.

Joseph Ballance, 23, pleaded not guilty Thursday at an arraignment in First District Court in Central Islip, where he was charged with second-degree aggravated harassment.

Prosecutors asked for $5,000 bail, but Judge Joseph A. Santorelli ordered Ballance held on $10,000 cash bail or $30,000 bond. He also issued an order of protection for the victims and ordered a mental health screening for Ballance.

The police report says, on Aug. 20 at 3:50 p.m. at the Hess gas station on Smithtown Bypass, Ballance threatened the victim with extreme violence.

The victim, 49, and her daughter, both of Smithtown, were dressed in an abaya, a traditional Muslim garment that completely covered their bodies and face, except for their eyes.

Washington DC: Hot Hair Salons of the Politicos..."The Turks give the best blow dries in the world and don't talk much.

Sometimes after spending the day fighting the jihad, dealing with Muslim wife beheaders and transgendered anarchists, a girl just needs to let her hair down.

So here's an article from W Magazine about a chi-chi DC Salon.  Meeeow!  (Tip of the stylish coiffure to FReeper GOP_Lady.  Kiss-kiss, my dear.)

<---Andre!

In a five-story 1883 town house on Washington, D.C.’s K Street, Andre Chreky’s salon is masterfully set up to accommodate a town divided into red and blue. Two distinct cutting-room floors keep clients with opposing politics out of one another’s sights. “I try to keep them separated because they look at each other and you can see their stiffness,” says Chreky, citing former U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations John Bolton and former Russian Ambassador Yuri Ushakov as two clients who have been escorted in different directions.

Though there is also a private room for those with no patience for chitchat (oddly enough, John McLaughlin was a fan of those quarters), Chreky and his wife, Serena, insist that this is the sort of place where, despite being situated just two blocks from the White House, things are downright folksy—Callista Gingrich’s husband, Newt, walks her over regularly and reads a book while he waits for her to get her hair done.

Recently, both White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs and Senior Adviser David Axelrod personally called the salon to make appointments. “There’s no entourage [for these two],” Serena Chreky says earnestly, adding that political figures often want to minimize the hoopla surrounding routine haircuts. “You need [to go] somewhere where you’re not going to read about it in the paper the next day. You need a salon that protects you.”

That’s because, unlike the White House beauty parlor, with its single shampoo station and chair reserved for the first family, the leading salons in Washington cater to a rotating cast of senators, congresspeople, ambassadors and journalists. And each establishment dances the delicate waltz of keeping political pit bulls with jam-packed schedules happy and relaxed while beautifying them discreetly in a town that loves to abhor vanity.

At the storied George Salon at the Four Seasons, station after station of strapping Turkish men—the D.C. salon scene is dominated by Turks, who, as one competitor says, give “the best blow-dries in the world and don’t talk much”—

Bwa-ha-ha! Barack not catching on as baby name.

I am shamelessy lifting this from FReeper FromLori.  Good catch, Miss Lori!

Don't look now, Barack, but Hillary is gaining.

Libyan charm offensive: Berlusconi, Chavez, Bashir and 40-50 African heads of state to pay tribute to Gaddafi.

Berlusconi visits Libya to celebrate 'Friendship Pact"

Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi will travel to the Libyan capital, Tripoli, on Sunday to celebrate the first anniversary of a controversial friendship treaty that allows Italy to repatriate migrants intercepted in international waters. He will leave the same day and will not attend the 40th anniversary of Libya's independence on Tuesday, Italy's under-secretary for foreign affairs, Alfredo Mantica, said. Despite Berlusconi's absence on Tuesday, an acrobatic display team from the Italian air force will perform a flyover to mark the country's independence, Mantica said.

French president Nicolas Sarkozy and Russia's president Dmitry Medvedev and Britain's Duke of York have also decided against attending the festivities.

Earlier this week, Berlusconi came under pressure from the opposition to cancel his trip amid outrage over the hero’s welcome Libya gave Lockerbie bomber Abdul Baset Ali al-Megrahi upon his release from a Scottish jail last week.

Venezuela's Left-wing president Hugo Chavez and some 40 to 50 African heads of state will reportedly attend the six-day celebrations to mark the coup which brought Colonel Gaddafi to power in the former Italian colony.

Among those due to attend are Sudanese president Omar al-Bashir, who has been charged with war crimes and crimes against humanity in Darfur by the UN's International Criminal Court.

Berlusconi has become one of Libyan leader and former renegade Muammar Gaddafi's main international sponsors.

Between kissing Gaddfi's a$$ in Macy's window,  his vixens and his sex addiction therapy, Sr. Berlusconi is one busy man.

Muslim Wife Beheader looks to cop an insanity plea while claiming his wife's estate?

I couldn't believe it when I saw this headline:  Man accused of beheading wife appears for estate hearing.

The case of slain cable TV executive Aasiya Zubair Hassan spilled over into a second courtroom today as Erie County Surrogate Barbara Howe conducted a closed-court session on her estate and its ultimate disposition.

This is so wrong on SO many levels, I don't know where to begin.

First, Hassan beats, then beheads his wife in cold blood and now he  is playing the justice system like a fiddle.  His attorney has made the strategic decision to try and run out the clock to jam the prosecution's formulation of their defense strategy against the Islamic wife beheader. Mark your calendars, possums:  The date for his trial has been tentatively set for January 19.

From the Buffalo News:(h/t Jeffrey Imm)

Muzzammil S. “Mo” Hassan, who is accused of beheading his wife, is expected to undergo psychiatric examinations that will determine whether his lawyers will be able to raise insanity issues at his upcoming trial.
...
“During Friday’s brief court session, Colleen Curtin Gable, the chief homicide prosecutor in the case, complained to the judge about “repeated demands” of the Erie County District Attorney’s office as to how Harrington plans to defend Hassan.”

 “Harrington, without showing his legal hand, told the judge and prosecutor he has been “working through some practical matters” in the case, which have delayed Hassan’s ‘evaluation’ by defense mental health experts.”

“After prosecutors receive the required pretrial notice on the defense strategy, they will be able to arrange for their own mental health professionals to examine the defendant — if insanity-linked issues are part of the defense strategy.”

“After Harrington said he is confident he can provide prosecutors with his defense strategy by mid-September the judge scheduled another session in the for Sept. 18. To give both sides enough time to prepare Franczyk has scheduled a tentative Jan. 19 start of jury selection in the murder trial.”

Read the details surrounding the brutal killing and ask yourself if he was insane or if he was just a cold, calculating, Muslim woman hater preserving his honor.

Oh for crying out loud, he tricked her into coming to the station, the kids were waiting out in the car...while he beat the living shi% out of her and then cut her head off.  He showered in the office shower and had enough presence of mind to walk out of the murder scene and hand his 17 year old son $4900 in cash because "he'd probably need it".  And they are already start to play the "history of psychiatric problems" card.

And get this, he's only being charged with murder in the second degree.

Madeline Albright: Lockerbie "unfortunate issue" and a 'terrible accident'.

And this is just another example of why Madeline Albright was a "terrible Secretary of State".

"This issue itself is most unfortunate because so many Americans and other nationals died in that terrible, terrible accident."

I used to be a Methodist...

and here is reason 356 why I no longer consider myself to be one.

From the Last Crusade:  Moon God beams over America's heartland.

The First United Methodist Church in Omaha, Nebraska hosted an interfaith prayer vigil on Sunday, August 23. The vigil was neither held in preparation of feast days of St. Louis, the heretic fighting King of France, who died during the Second Crusade, nor of St. Bartholomew the Apostle, the first Christian missionary to India.

The ceremony was rather conducted in celebration of the first day of Ramadan, the ninth month of the Muslim calendar, when the Angel Gabriel revealed the first verses of the Qur’an to the prophet Muhammad.

The vigil was held at 7 p.m., when the Maghrib is recited and Muslims can break from their fast.

An integral aspect of our congregation is the mutual respect we have for one another in our diversity,” the Church proclaims on its website.

Few members appeared to object to the recitation of Muslim prayers within the Christian sanctuary.

The First United Methodist Church of Omaha is “inclusive of those associated with all sexual orientations and gender identities.”

It is not known if antro-females, drag queens, and sadomasochists participated in the vigil.

In its notice of the service, the Church said that prayers will be offered not to protect the world from the onslaught of Islamic violence and the plague of Muslim pedophilia but rather for the passage of President Obama’s health care legislation.

Indonesia: Muslims smuggle heroin in Koran. Where are the riots?

Related:  Muslims (and the UK government) fund Scottish art exhibit that encourages defacing the Bible.

From Vlad Tepes.  (h/t Religion of Peace)

In the past few months, riots in several countries resulting in many deaths and millions in damages and other costs have resulted from mere rumors of ‘desecration’ of a Koran such as in Greece and most horribly as an excuse to savage a Christian community in Pakistan.

Again, from simple rumors of treating a Koran in other than a holy manner, tearing it or spitting on it etc. resulted in large riots, deaths and damaged property including burning many homes to the ground.

How about the nonsense that resulted from a US soldier who was alleged to do target practice on a Koran he found in a garbage can. Or the ‘Koran down the toilet’ nonsense.

I am willing to bet anything there will be exactly no riots or anything other than mere lip service and probably not even that, from Muslims about using Koran’s to smuggle heroin.

You were right, Vlad Tepes.  This happened back on August 20th and I haven't heard boo from any of Mohammed's (Smack be upon him) minions, have you?

Yemen: Remember Nujood Ali, the 9 year old divorcee?

Being raped and beaten by her 'old and ugly' husband wasn't enough.  Now, it sounds like her family is shunning her and trying shake down anyone that tries to help her. 

From CNN

We find her at the family's two-room house in an impoverished suburb of the city where Nujood is angry, combative and yelling. Tension surrounds the home like a noose.

After much arguing with family members, Nujood finally grabs her veil and agrees to sit down with CNN. Her presence is grudging, although CNN had got permission in advance to see how the girl who rocked a nation by demanding a divorce was shaping up.  (I wonder how much baksheesh CNN coughed up to the family.)

Now, it's all about the money.

There was never going to be a fortune. Generous people have donated thousands so Nujood could go to a private school, but she refuses to attend, according to Shada Nasser, the human rights lawyer who took on the child's divorce case.

"I know Nujood was absent from the school. I spoke with her father and her family. And I ask them to control her and ask her to go every day to school. But they said, 'You know we don't have the money for the transportation. Don't have the money for the food,' " says Nasser.

She believes Nujood is being victimized by her own family because they believe Nujood's fame should bring them fortune.

Nujood's parents say they've received nothing, and in the meantime Nujood stews wondering out loud how everything turned out this way.

"I was happy I got divorced but I'm sad about the way it turned out after I went on television," she said adding that she feels like an outcast even among her family and friends.

A little known fact about Nujood's case - she had to pay the scumbag who defiled her.  I'd be angry and acting out, too!

"But based on the principles of Shariah law, her husband was compensated, not prosecuted. Nujood was ordered to pay him more than $200 -- a huge amount in a country where the United Nations Development Programme says 15.7 percent of the population lives on less than $1 a day."
