Europe's Sorry Lesson What this guy does not seem to realize or care to admit is EUROPE'S SORRY LESSON is an object lesson for America that America has totally ignored. Matter of fact we are capitulating as a rate hitherto unknown in the universe. Get the so-smarts on it, stat. We may be breaking some laws of physics here. America is ignoring all her object lessons with breakneck speed. Seems like we just can't WAIT to be Post America. Not me MFers, not me. You can keep the potato.

Oil prices fall despite OPEC cut
A man was detained Friday at a Moscow airport after allegedly threatening to hijack a flight from southern Russia to the capital, Russian news agencies reported. Later, the news agency quoted a law enforcement source as saying the disruption had been caused by "a drunk passenger who decided he wanted to take control of the plane."
The low-fare airline Sky Express was carrying 130 passengers when a man shouting "Allah Akbar" demanded the plane from the Black Sea resort of Sochi to Moscow divert to Vienna, a law enforcement source told Interfax news agency.

Obama: Radical Socialist, the evidence Not that any of you entranced Obamaphiles give a rats ass, since you are all thoroughly hypnotized and completely cowed by the idea that opposing him in any way makes you a "racist". What is silly about this article is that they write of their fears that Obama will install Socialist policies and destroy Capitalism. LOL! Tovarich Bushki and Czar Paulson have already done this. Obama, if he takes the seat, will merely CONTINUE it. And so will McCain, just more covertly, and at a different rate of speed. Wake up America. The damage is DONE, already, it has ALREADY BEGUN. And the guy WE voted for did it. Wake up!
BIRDS OF A STATIST FEATHER The McCain campaign has taken to calling Barack Obama a socialist. This is neither as derogatory as McCain's handlers seem to think nor as baseless as Obama supporters would like U. S. voters to believe. Yes, Senator Obama is something of a socialist.

Isaiah 54
The Future Glory of Zion
1 "Sing, O barren woman,you who never bore a child;
burst into song, shout for joy,
you who were never in labor;
because more are the children of the desolate woman
than of her who has a husband,"
says the LORD.
2 "Enlarge the place of your tent,
stretch your tent curtains wide,
do not hold back;
lengthen your cords,
strengthen your stakes.
3 For you will spread out to the right and to the left;
your descendants will dispossess nations
and settle in their desolate cities.
4 "Do not be afraid; you will not suffer shame.
Do not fear disgrace; you will not be humiliated.
You will forget the shame of your youth
and remember no more the reproach of your widowhood.
5 For your Maker is your husband—
the LORD Almighty is his name—
the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer;
he is called the God of all the earth.
6 The LORD will call you back
as if you were a wife deserted and distressed in spirit—
a wife who married young,
only to be rejected," says your God.
7 "For a brief moment I abandoned you,
but with deep compassion I will bring you back.
8 In a surge of anger
I hid my face from you for a moment,
but with everlasting kindness
I will have compassion on you,"
says the LORD your Redeemer.
9 "To me this is like the days of Noah,
when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth.
So now I have sworn not to be angry with you,
never to rebuke you again.
10 Though the mountains be shaken
and the hills be removed,
yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken
nor my covenant of peace be removed,"
says the LORD, who has compassion on you.
11 "O afflicted city, lashed by storms and not comforted,
I will build you with stones of turquoise,
your foundations with sapphires.
12 I will make your battlements of rubies,
your gates of sparkling jewels,
and all your walls of precious stones.
13 All your sons will be taught by the LORD,
and great will be your children's peace.
14 In righteousness you will be established:
Tyranny will be far from you;
you will have nothing to fear.
Terror will be far removed;
it will not come near you.
15 If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing;
whoever attacks you will surrender to you.
16 "See, it is I who created the blacksmith
who fans the coals into flame
and forges a weapon fit for its work.
And it is I who have created the destroyer to work havoc;
17 no weapon forged against you will prevail,
and you will refute every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD,
and this is their vindication from me,"
declares the LORD.

Someone TRIED to poison Nasrallah to no avail Professional courtesy I suspect, one poison to another.... Hizballah denies the incident.
Report: Israel poisoned Hizballah chief
Naturally, Israel did it, even if they didn't. And if they did, he'd be dead, so they didn't.
Get it? Got it? Goooooood.
A meeting between Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah and Mustaqbal Movement chief Saad Hariri is facing security and not political obstacles, sources involved in efforts to reconcile the two men told pan-Arab daily al-Hayat. They said there were no political obstacles that prevented the Nasrallah-Hariri reconciliation meeting particularly after a delegation from the Loyalty to the Resistance bloc headed by MP Mohammed Raad visited Hariri at his mansion in Qoreitem.

Increasing Nostalgia in Germany for..... Communism
Germany's current love affair with the left is not just a knee-jerk response to the credit crunch, with record sales of Karl Marx's Das Kapital and a huge increase in the membership of the recently formed socialist Left Party. Surveys also show that increasing numbers of young Germans, all born after Germany's reunification in 1990, know little or nothing about life under communism. Some even think it was the West Germans who built the Berlin Wall."Some think that it was like living in a social paradise," said Elke Urban, who runs the East German school project from the Leipzig Stasi building that has been reborn as a museum. "Paradoxically, it is the east German young people who know least because their parents are reluctant to talk about the past."

WFRL: He Sank Beneath Your Wisdom Like a Stone
Leonard Cohen ~ Suzanne
And Jesus was a sailorWhen he walked upon the water
And he spent a long time watching
From his lonely wooden tower
And when he knew for certain
Only drowning men could see him
He said "All men will be sailors then
Until the sea shall free them"
But he himself was broken
Long before the sky would open
Forsaken, almost human
He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone
And you want to travel with him
And you want to travel blind
And you think maybe you'll trust him
For he's touched your perfect body with his mind.
Franz Von Stuck ~ "Susanna"

Isaiah Chapter 30
Woe to the Obstinate Nation
1 "Woe to the obstinate children,"declares the LORD,
"to those who carry out plans that are not mine,
forming an alliance, but not by my Spirit,
heaping sin upon sin;
2 who go down to Egypt
without consulting me;
who look for help to Pharaoh's protection,
to Egypt's shade for refuge.
3 But Pharaoh's protection will be to your shame,
Egypt's shade will bring you disgrace.
4 Though they have officials in Zoan
and their envoys have arrived in Hanes,
5 everyone will be put to shame
because of a people useless to them,
who bring neither help nor advantage,
but only shame and disgrace."
6 An oracle concerning the animals of the Negev:
Through a land of hardship and distress,
of lions and lionesses,
of adders and darting snakes,
the envoys carry their riches on donkeys' backs,
their treasures on the humps of camels,
to that unprofitable nation,
7 to Egypt, whose help is utterly useless.
Therefore I call her
Rahab the Do-Nothing.
8 Go now, write it on a tablet for them,
inscribe it on a scroll,
that for the days to come
it may be an everlasting witness.
9 These are rebellious people, deceitful children,
children unwilling to listen to the LORD's instruction.
10 They say to the seers,
"See no more visions!"
and to the prophets,
"Give us no more visions of what is right!
Tell us pleasant things,
prophesy illusions.
11 Leave this way,
get off this path,
and stop confronting us
with the Holy One of Israel!"
12 Therefore, this is what the Holy One of Israel says:
"Because you have rejected this message,
relied on oppression
and depended on deceit,
13 this sin will become for you
like a high wall, cracked and bulging,
that collapses suddenly, in an instant.
14 It will break in pieces like pottery,
shattered so mercilessly
that among its pieces not a fragment will be found
for taking coals from a hearth
or scooping water out of a cistern."
15 This is what the Sovereign LORD, the Holy One of Israel, says:
"In repentance and rest is your salvation,
in quietness and trust is your strength,
but you would have none of it.
16 You said, 'No, we will flee on horses.'
Therefore you will flee!
You said, 'We will ride off on swift horses.'
Therefore your pursuers will be swift!
17 A thousand will flee
at the threat of one;
at the threat of five
you will all flee away,
till you are left
like a flagstaff on a mountaintop,
like a banner on a hill."
18 Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you;
he rises to show you compassion.
For the LORD is a God of justice.
Blessed are all who wait for him!
19 O people of Zion, who live in Jerusalem, you will weep no more. How gracious he will be when you cry for help! As soon as he hears, he will answer you. 20 Although the Lord gives you the bread of adversity and the water of affliction, your teachers will be hidden no more; with your own eyes you will see them. 21 Whether you turn to the right or to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, "This is the way; walk in it." 22 Then you will defile your idols overlaid with silver and your images covered with gold; you will throw them away like a menstrual cloth and say to them, "Away with you!"
23 He will also send you rain for the seed you sow in the ground, and the food that comes from the land will be rich and plentiful. In that day your cattle will graze in broad meadows. 24 The oxen and donkeys that work the soil will eat fodder and mash, spread out with fork and shovel. 25 In the day of great slaughter, when the towers fall, streams of water will flow on every high mountain and every lofty hill. 26 The moon will shine like the sun, and the sunlight will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven full days, when the LORD binds up the bruises of his people and heals the wounds he inflicted.
27 See, the Name of the LORD comes from afar,
with burning anger and dense clouds of smoke;
his lips are full of wrath,
and his tongue is a consuming fire.
28 His breath is like a rushing torrent,
rising up to the neck.
He shakes the nations in the sieve of destruction;
he places in the jaws of the peoples
a bit that leads them astray.
29 And you will sing
as on the night you celebrate a holy festival;
your hearts will rejoice
as when people go up with flutes
to the mountain of the LORD,
to the Rock of Israel.
30 The LORD will cause men to hear his majestic voice
and will make them see his arm coming down
with raging anger and consuming fire,
with cloudburst, thunderstorm and hail.
31 The voice of the LORD will shatter Assyria;
with his scepter he will strike them down.
32 Every stroke the LORD lays on them
with his punishing rod
will be to the music of tambourines and harps,
as he fights them in battle with the blows of his arm.
33 Topheth has long been prepared;
it has been made ready for the king.
Its fire pit has been made deep and wide,
with an abundance of fire and wood;
the breath of the LORD,
like a stream of burning sulfur,
sets it ablaze.
