Someone Explain to Me Why...

Ms. California is being "black balled" by the media for her answer on the gay marriage question which happens to be the same answer that President B. Obama gave during his campaign.

Namely : I personally am against the idea of gay marriage. I believe a marriage is a commitment between a man and a woman. However, I see no legally justified reason for denying gay couples the legal protections of marriage under the name of civil unions.

Can someone who's on the left explain to me why it's okay for one person to advocate a posistion, but NOT another?

Oh...maybe it has something to do with the fact that Ms. California is a white woman and President Obama is a black man? Is it simply a race issue?

If you're white are you allowed to have an opinion?

If you Disagree with Me you are a traitor

According to Wanda Sykes anyone who disagrees with Preisdent Obama's desires is a traitor. She makes an arguement that Obama = America. She even goes so fae as to jokingly accuse that Rush Limbaugh is the 20th high jacker of the 9-11 flights because he disagrees with Obama.

So.

The "tolerant" liberal establishment believes that THEY are America, and anyone who disagrees with them is Counter-Revolutionar...sorry, I mean Un-American.

Remember when the Left thought we who lean right were "silly" to worry about Bill Ayers comments about "reeducation camps"?

Yeah...one more not in the countries dirge.

Hawaii votes for Islam Day
LAHORE: Hawaii’s state Senate overwhelmingly approved a bill on Wednesday to celebrate Islam Day – over objections of some lawmakers who said they did not want to honour a religion “connected to September 11, 2001”. “I recall radical Islamists around the world cheering the horrors of 9/11. That is the day all civilised people of all religions should remember,” said Fred Hemmings. The resolution to proclaim September 24, 2009, as Islam Day passed the Senate on a 22-3 vote. The bill seeks to recognise “the rich religious, scientific, cultural and artistic contributions” that Islam and the Islamic world have made. daily times monitor

Allow me to be the first to say...WHAT THE F-CK???

Okay, so, if Hawaii can nominate an Islam Day, an no one have the right to complain, does that mean i can get Florida to pass KLEZMER AND KRUGELS to commenotate Jewish Traditions? Better yet, how about SANTERIA SUNDAYS!!! or SHIVA-DAY??

WHAT THE HELL?

Can you say Seperation of Church and State Boys and Girls?

A News Story That Didn't Make Prime Time?

Has anyone seen this news story in the Maintstream Media?

Israel kills two in air raids aimed at tunnels
Gaza City
May 3, 2009
Two Palestinians have been killed in Israeli air strikes on smuggling tunnels in the southern Gaza Strip.
Jihad Abu Jarad and Hamdan al-Astal, both in their 20s, were killed in Rafah on the border with Egypt, and three other people were wounded in the strikes which targeted five tunnels, Palestinian medical sources said.
The air raids were the second in as many days to target smuggling tunnels along Gaza's border with Egypt and came after Palestinian militants fired mortar rounds into Israel, an Israeli army spokesman said.
On Friday, aircraft attacked two smuggling tunnels along the Gaza-Egypt border, a day after Palestinian militants fired a rocket at Israel.
Militants in Hamas-ruled Gaza have fired about 200 rockets at Israel since the end of Israel's onslaught against the impoverished territory in December and January.
Palestinian sources say the Gaza war left more than 1400 Palestinian dead. Thirteen Israelis were killed during the conflict.
The latest confrontation came as Israeli media reported that a New York-born and Princeton-educated historian and commentator on Middle East affairs has been chosen as the country's next ambassador to the United States.
According to the online edition of the newspaper Haaretz, Michael Oren's selection by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman would be submitted to Sunday's cabinet meeting for approval.
Mr Oren is a senior fellow at the Shalem Centre, a conservative Jerusalem think tank. He is the author of several bestsellers, including Six Days of War: June 1967 and the Making of the Modern Middle East.
Born in 1955, Mr Oren immigrated to Israel in 1979 and served as a paratrooper in Lebanon. During the January offensive in the Gaza Strip, he volunteered as a military liaison officer, briefing reporters outside Gaza. He holds US and Israeli citizenship.
Mr Netanyahu's inner circle is engaged in a wide-ranging foreign policy review before his visit to the White House this month. His refusal so far to endorse the goal of an independent Palestinian state puts him at odds with US President Barack Obama.

200 mortars since the end of the conflict.

hmmm.

Wonder what that means?
