Had a traditional holiday breakfast @ work, 3 egg cheese omlet, Parks original sausage and a poppy bagel with country crock spread!! YUM
Lunch was Progresso (maybe) italian wedding soup with a boiled german knockwurst accompanied by a left over sesame bagel.
Over lunch our reduced crew, down to 2 for the lunch break, discussed some of our religious background and current standings. How we celebrate and why and so forth. Its an unusual discussion because we tend to keep away from personal deep discussions like that @ work.
It was fine, and actually opened up a different thread of communication between this other employee and myself. We get along pretty well as it is, enough so that I shared my food for breakfast and he shared his for lunch. Seems like a decent yardstick.
Got me to thinking for the rest of the day, never a good sign. I'd just recently made it a point to decipher the anagram RINO, as in Republican in Name only. Cute, to the extent that I understand the reference. My mid day conversation on religious observation still was lingering about and I got to thinking about people who don't practice or observe their religion outside of a few specific holidays. Easter and Christmas ( including ash Wednesday, or Palm Sunday?) Chanukah, Rosh and Yom. And no even embracing to spiritual essence of a God.
Oh but why, really. A god is created in the mind of man to suit his mortal needs. But when theres no answer, or all the obvious answers in our life have run through our hands. Maybe to refer to the unknown or unexplainable. When logic abandons you. As a mere spiritual anchor.
Well I don't think I hold a belief in god, I just can't allow myself to, but I quite recognize and admire other peoples faith in a higher power/entity. Its satisfying to see.
And so it flashed against my inner foreheads billboard sign. JINO. Yes, you guessed it. Jews in name only.

Who's BEST INTEREST?
CAIRO - Dalia Mogahed, the first Muslim woman appointed to a position in President Barack Obama’s administration met with lawmakers Monday and discussed her role on an interfaith advisory board the new administration hopes will broaden dialogue and understanding.
Mogahed was also a member of U.S.-Muslim Engagement Project, which called for engagement with Muslim Brotherhood.
The Muslim Brotherhood is dedicated, in its own words, to "a kind of grand Jihad in eliminating and destroying the Western civilization from within and 'sabotaging' its miserable house by their hands and the hands of the believers so that it is eliminated and God's religion is made victorious over all other religions."

How and why its happening
Wilders: What's happened is that the cultural relativists believe that all cultures are equal, that Islam is just another leaf on the tree - and that everybody who says different is a xenophobe or racist. Within Europe, Muslims today have enormous political force. They all vote, and they're represented by mostly leftist parties.
There is no country where Islam is dominant where you have a real democracy, a real separation between church and state. Islam is totally contrary to our values.
Please read it all....

I promise to write something different.
Just plain old tired. So maybe tomorrow. In the mean time Welcome Geert Wilders to the United States. He is here to speak out on well........Free Speech. Agree or disagree with his platform, being able to say whats on his mind is one of the few valuable freedoms we all have left.
edit: We should have Geert on The "Factor" as well.

Enough is TOO MUCH
Multiculturalism. We're "Multicultural". Its ALL good, we don't actually believe in ANYTHING. I'm ok, your OK.
Liberal western cultures are predisposed to multiculturalism because it serves to avoid the guilt we otherwise would feel for standing up for our freedoms. If I am not mistaken, there are only 3 countries with Islamic populations of 20% or more that can still be called multicultural. They are tiny little countries, that didn't even exist when I took Social Studies in high school.
There is no Multicultural in Islamic countries. Either the host government allows the Muslims to establish a parallel Sharia court system to try Islamic crimes, or the goal is to subjugate the country's government and instill a Sharia run regime.
England, France, Holland, Canada, and very soon The USA. With every step we take toward multiculturalism ........ BAH.
Enough will be too much. Is every single issue and conflict we observe just another case of extreme Islamic phobia? Can the observer be wrong ALL the time? How many times do we have to witness the inequalities portrayed by Main Stream Media (MSM) to be able to say once , A HAH!! We were right!?
Is it all coincidence ? Are we wrong all the time? It doesn't see likely. So when we've acquiesced and accommodated our lifestyle to those who will not integrate to our culture, and we FINALLY say "ENOUGH", it will be TOO MUCH. Too late. Regretfully, retro action is even more impossible than pro action.
This country is not made up of cowards, and many will not stand for peaceful assimilation like good SHEEPLE.

The Quotes, Could be a TV pilot
Britain’s Home Secretary, Jacqui Smith
The Home Secretary is best known for an inspired change of terminology: Last year she announced that henceforth Muslim terrorism (an unhelpful phrase) would be reclassified as “anti-Islamic activity.” Seriously. The logic being that Muslims blowing stuff up tends not to do much for Islam’s reputation — i.e., it’s an “anti-Islamic activity” in the same sense that Pearl Harbor was an anti-Japanese activity.

The Prez
And how did the 44th President react to the growing public dismay over the mess he was making? He threw his toys out of the pram -- or perhaps that should read, he got into the pram. For he fled the scene of the disaster and sought the company of seven year-olds instead. As the Telegraph reported:
‘We were just tired of being in the White House,’ he told a group of excited seven-year-olds before discussing Batman and reading them a book.
Tired of being President – after two weeks!
Tax cheats, pork-barrel politics, ancillary child abuse, incompetence, chaos, treachery and infantilism. America – what have you done?!
