Random Thoughts on Race, Religion, & Marriage

Posted by grappledoctor on Saturday, November 15, 2008 8:44:32 AM
According to the American Heritage dictionary, the word discriminate is defined primarily as, "to make a clear distinction" and "to make sensible decisions; judge wisely." But there's little doubt the word discrimination has a negative connotation, usually related to racial discrimination and racism. According to the same dictionary, a racist is defined as, "The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others." So if you are making a clear distinction, or even a sensible judgment, based on the belief that your race is superior, you are racially discriminating, and, therefore, you are a racist. This may seem like a overly broad definition of a racist, and yes, it sort of makes everyone a racist. But I think my friend once said it best, "The issue is not whether you're racist, but to what degree." Well, what about discriminating based on a belief that one's religion is better than another? Or discriminating based on a lack of religion? Let's use the context of marriage to illustrate the two types of discrimination here. What if I refuse to marry a person who is not Christian. Or, what if I won't marry a person who is not Korean? The first is discrimination based on religion, and the latter based on race. At first blush, the latter seems somewhat more nefarious than the first (Or maybe neither are nefarious at all). But why? Is race more fundamental to the person than his religion? I don't think so. It seems to me that one's religion (or lack thereof) defines a person as much as his race and ethnicity. (Well, that's my opinion. I guess it depends on each person and how they define themselves). Both concepts seem equally fundamental to our uniqueness as individuals and is why being discriminated against based on either you race or religion is offensive (or not). And our laws certainly treat them equally fundamental as violations against one's right to practice his religion and discrimination based on race are both afforded strict scrutiny, the highest standard of review by the courts. Well, if the degree of fundamentality fails to explain the difference in the degree of negativity, than perhaps the answer lies in the results of such discrimination. For example, an employer refusing to give a job to a qualified candidate because he is black would certainly qualify as a nefarious result of racial discrimination. But if an employer refuses based on the qualified candidate's religious views, well, whats the difference? They both seem very troubling and a practice we should avoid. What about history? Does racial discrimination invoke visceral reactions because of our country's dark past with enslaving blacks? But religious persecution is the reason why our country was founded. Certainly our race troubles are more recent, but both types of discrimination/persecution have been central to our country's history. So I don't think history is a good explanation.
Or is this endeavor simply fruitless? Because, let's think about it. Shouldn't we give FULL freedom to individuals so they can make rational choices for who they want as their life partner and who they want to populate the world with (Ok, boorish way to put it, but it's true folks)? Marriage is sacrosanct. And perhaps the sacro-sanctity makes marriage one of those exceptional circumstances that justifies discrimination. For instance, many Korean women who grow up and live in Korea may consider dating non-Koreans, but probably would not marry one. Koreans are a very homogeneous people. So it seems reasonable that Koreans want to marry fellow Koreans. And the same reasoning goes, I think, with not wanting to marry someone who does not share the same level of religious faith. You want to ensure that the strong tradition of faith is carried out through the lineage. Ultimately, I think as long as you have a "good" reason for your exclusivity rule, it's more than justified, and therefore, completely rational. And is probably why we have not seen marriage lawsuits claiming racial or religious discrimination (at least from what I know) . I would hope, however, that rules are made to be broken.

FORMER PRESIDENT JIMMY CARTER, ELECTIONS MONITOR, PEACE KEEPER AND NEGOTIATOR, PEANUT FARMER, AND PEANUT BRAIN

Posted by grappledoctor on Saturday, November 15, 2008 8:40:09 AM
President Carter's involvement in foreign elections to avoid any and all tactics to distort results. Here is the list: Elections Monitored by The Carter Center: 71 Elections in 28 Countries (April 2008 figures) Cherokee Nation (July 1999) Liberia (July 1997, October 2005) China Elections (March 1997, July 1997, March 1998, January 1999, September 1999, January 2000, August 2000, September 2001, December 2001, December 2002, June 2004, May 2005, May 2006) Mali (April 2002) Democratic Republic of the Congo (July 2006) Mexico (July 1992, August 1994, July 1997, July 2000) Dominican Republic (May 1990, June 1996, May 2000) Mozambique (December 1999, November 2003, December 2004) East Timor (August 1999, August 2001, April 2002, June 2007) Nepal (April 2008) Ecuador (September 2007*, September 2008*) Nicaragua (February 1990, October 1996, November 2000, November 2001, November 2006) Ethiopia (May 2005) Nigeria (December 1998, January 1999, February 20, 1999, Feb. 27, 1999) Ghana (November 1992) Palestinian Territories (January 1996, January 2005, January 2006) Guatemala (November 2003*) Panama (May 1989, May 1994) Guyana (October 1992, March 2001, August 2006*) Paraguay (May 1993) Haiti (December 1990) Peru (April 2000, June 2001) Indonesia (June 1999, July 2004) Sierra Leone (May 2002) Jamaica (December 1997, October 2002) Venezuela (December 1998, July 2000, August 2004, December 2006*) Kenya (December 2002) Zambia (October 1991, December 2001) *These missions were targeted or focused observations and did not result in statements on the overall administration of the electoral process. Why has Carter been so involved in these elections? Fairness is the principle behind electing a candidate. If he has demonstrated such standards on world elections in the interests of fairness, when does he intend to scrutinize the fraud committed by ACORN. The election process needs to be overhauled (like the show). Already in Florida, early voters have been complaining about process. If I want the voters to participate properly, we need to make the process foolproof (dummy proof). And South Florida is the poster child for election fiascos. Let a third party organization conduct a study on how problems arose for voters across the country. This should include accusations of fraud and any other misconduct. Then, all issues could be addressed in time for the 2012 election. I read the sample ballot dispensed in the local mail to all residents. The Amendments were written in jargon that only a trial lawyer could possibly decipher. Semantics and logic was my favorite class in high school. I have a college education and a ost graduate degree. I have a reasonably well orchestrated command of the English language. I found the manner in which the Amendments were written make them nearly impossible for anyone to understand. Anyone with less ability to make reasonably judgements may not be qualified to vote. I read about Democrats driving bus loads of citizens from wherever to the booths. Some of the people are homeless!! They do need a voice, but are they capable of honestly voting with any comprehension?! Sometimes underhandedness provokes people to do things. This type of behavior is really amoral, bordering on criminal. I think when Carter gets involved in past elections in a gesture of fairness, he is guilt laiden with silence when he fails to do so now.

PREDICTION #5 OBAMA WILL HAVE TALKS WITH IRAN BUT ......

Posted by grappledoctor on Saturday, November 15, 2008 8:38:13 AM
Obama has been overtly auspicious leaning towards "negotiations without preconditions" in leui of prior Presidential administrations' foreign relations policy with Iran. The Iranian government has been a well documented sponsor of terrorism past and present. Also, Iran has been implicated as an Al-Quada supporter against our troops. Still, anti-war advocates have graciously voted Obama into office and now expect him to follow through with several measures. These measures include: 1) Withdrawal of troops from all areas involved unless humanitaran concern is actively being addressed-this is primarily pertaining to the Bush administration follies. Showing its failure to produce on all levels predicates an investigation into any shenanigans which could implicate Bush with charges of some sort I I will leave it to your imagination) 2) Iranian sanctions being lifted immediately based on humanitarian concern regardless if this must include supplies related to nuclear infrastructure-since sanctions were never adhered to by our "allies" because they have always engaged in trade on some level, arguments for lifting sanctions will have many proponets and they will be making noise! 3) Obama will negotiate with Iran to either pursuit nuclear power for "peaceful purposes" or will "bait" Ahmedinajhad with extinguishing his nuclear ambition provided Israel undergo UN inspections at the Dimona nuclear power plant. The measure cannot be refused by the Israeli government because if they decline, the UN could impose the same policy placed on Iraq for similar arguments. The US must show evenhandedness to dispell favoratism. Also, refusing to comply with the UN policy would be an admttion of guilt by Israel for developing WMDs. In addition, this would allow the concoction of a Middle East Peace Plan getting everyone invloved on board. Pressure could be used to reset the Israeli borders to the 1949 line. This would leave little elbow room for all parties involved to deny. Once passed, Israel would be the only party left to take measures "on the ground" to recede from their position (again) for guarantees only ensured by worthless paper and the "glass jaw" of UN patrol. Any deviation from the immediate implimentation would leave Israel open to criticism (from the Left media). After everything has been orchestrated according to the treaty, the Arabs would find some incident that would be cause for uprising. This would be the catalyst for an all out assault that would leave Israel in a defenseless position. And the world has little initiative to muster an appropriate reaction. Obama wins no matter the result because he used diplomacy. Yes, I am a cynic.

FLASHBACK 2!!! THIS IS AN ARTICLE WRITTEN BY EL SID!! AHH...THE GOOD OLD BLOG DAYS......ABU GHRAIB AND THE LEACH MEDIA FRAUD

Posted by grappledoctor on Saturday, November 15, 2008 8:37:09 AM
Thursday, June 14, 2007 ABU GHRAIB AND THE LEACH MEDIA FRAUD - by El Sid A couple weeks ago U.S. forces raided an al-Qaeda safe house/torture chamber in Iraq. Besides finding (and freeing) several grateful [emphasis added] Iraqi captives, which included a 13 year old child, the soldiers recovered an illustrated al-Qaeda “how-to” manual on torture. The manual depicted colorful and detailed illustrations of al-Qaeda’s subtle coercion techniques such as blowtorch to the skin, eye removal, dismemberment with meat cleavers and wire cutters, electric drill, and the ever popular “drag-a-guy-behind-a-fast-moving-car-technique.” Al-Qaeda’s subdued and humane torture methods are in stark contrast to the draconian and inhuman techniques utilized by American interrogators at Guantanamo Bay. After interviewing Majid Khan, an al-Qaeda operative imprisoned at Guantanamo who was allegedly planning to conduct terrorist operations inside the U.S., the staunchly pro-American BBC exposed U.S. torture methods so horrific and perverse that this author was shocked into apoplexy. These ghastly methods included giving Mr. Khan the wrong prescription glasses, forcing him to shave his beard, and denying him access to the recreation yard. And if that inhumanity was not enough to satisfy the bloodlust of American servicemen, Mr. Khan was forced to play with an under-inflated ball. And finally, the BBC exposed a U.S. torture technique so appalling and atrocious that decorum nearly prevented me from reporting on it. It is a torture method straight out of the bowels of Dante’s Eight Circle of Hell…sniff…sniff…sniff…I’m sorry….give me a minute…sniff…..Mr. Khan….sniff, sniff…..Mr. Khan was forced to use cheap unscented soap. I’m not making this up. I’m not that creative. This is not a joke. BBC News actually ran the pathetic whiner Khan’s story on May 15, 2007. If you don’t believe me, go to http://news.bbc.co.uk/go/pr/fr/-/2/hi/americas/6659585.stm) and see for yourself. Although the al-Qaeda torture chamber story came out just a week after BBC’s sniveling Khan story, the BBC found no need to report real torture because it would not serve their leftist, anti-America agenda. Such hypocrisy is not reserved for the BBC. To my surprise and their credit, CNN and Fox News did give limited coverage of the al-Qaeda torture chamber raid. But over two weeks after the story was released, neither ABC, CBS, NBC, The New York Times, The Chicago Tribune, The L.A. Times, nor The Washington Post has run a story with the photos of this appalling evidence of al-Qaeda perversion and evil. Oh, and what was the vehemently anti-American and anti-Israel HUMAN RIGHTS organization known as Amnesty International’s reaction? zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…….crickets chirping……. Instead of denouncing al-Qaeda, just a few days ago, this avowedly leftist organization renewed its demand that the U.S. shut down Guantanamo. What about the morbidly obese, degenerate ghoul that used to be on The View? What’s its face? Oh yeah, Rosie O’Donnell. What was its reaction? A big fat donut, as in zero, nada. Instead, very shortly after the al-Qaeda story broke, it posted a video on its website where it and its apparent mate talked about, among other hate America topics, the atrocities of Abu Ghraib. Abu Ghraib? Compared to the al-Qaeda torture chamber(s), Abu Ghraib, with its semi-nude human dog piles and underwear-on-the head shenanigans, was akin to a drunken frat prank. Yet the media, here and abroad, covered the Abu Ghraib “scandal” ad absurdum. In case you forgot how nauseating the coverage was and if you think I may be exaggerating, I invite the reader to do a Google Search on the words “Abu Ghraib.” I did. Google came up with ONE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY THOUSAND hits. Moreover, just a few days ago at the “Presidential Forum on Faith, Values, and Poverty” Sheik Barack Hussein Obama, when asked about “evil” in the world pointed out as examples September 11, Guantanamo, and Abu Ghraib. (I won’t even get into the fact that on the topic of evil Sheik Barack Hussein Obama mentioned September 11 and Abu Ghraib in the same breath). Was Abu Ghraib American servicemen at their finest? (Perverted devotees of weird softcore gay porn don’t answer that question). Of course not. Did Abu Ghraib deserve the hysterical 24/7 coverage it received. Hell no. Abu Ghraib = frat prank. Al-Qaeda torture chamber(s) = unimaginable horror. To say the media’s coverage of Abu Ghraib was massively disproportionate compared to the coverage given to the al-Qaeda torture chamber raid would be an understatement, even though the images from al-Qaeda’s torture chamber were far more disturbing, shocking and attention-grabbing than anything that came out of the Abu Ghraib scandal. So why the media’s blatant silence? It’s because the media is dominated by Leftist, Effete, American-hating, Cowardly Hypocrites (hereinafter LEACHes). Their silence on al-Qaeda exposes them as the dangerous hypocrites they truly are. If they sincerely cared about human rights and the welfare of their fellow man, they would have covered the al-Qaeda torture story with the same passion as they did with Abu Ghraib. But not only did the Leach media not cover it with the same intensity, the Leach media didn’t cover it all. This deafening silence shows the Leaches could give a flying f*** about human rights. Their self-righteous anger over Abu Ghraib was a complete fraud. What Abu Ghraib was for them was an excuse to attack their main enemy – the United States. Worse than that, however, is that the Leach media’s silence about al-Qaeda’s torture chamber(s) is tantamount to a cover-up. The Leach media did not want the American public to see the pure evil that is al-Qaeda because that might stiffen the American public’s resolve in support of the war, and hey, may even lead to an American victory. The Leaches desperately want America to lose the war. They want to see America humbled to its knees. To the Leaches, a seriously weakened America will not be able to act unilaterally. To the Leaches, a weak America will be forced to act in concert with the United Nations and/or the European Union who supposedly share all the same common, socialist, utopian goals for the betterment of all mankind. This is a laudable goal, but somehow I don’t think the Muslims, China and Russia will be acting like Sweden anytime soon. Posted by mr krabs at 9:46 AM 0 comments

FLASHBACK!!! THIS IS AN ARTICLE I WROTE FROM 1 AND A HALF YRS AGO ON OBAMA AND WHAT HE WAS CHAMPIONING AT THE TIME. IT IS WORTH LOOKING BACK!.....

Posted by grappledoctor on Saturday, November 15, 2008 8:35:52 AM
riday, June 15, 2007 <span style="font-weight:bold;">SHEIK BARAK HUSSEIN OBAMA: DEMOCRAT, CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER, HEAVY METAL HEAD BANGER?!!</span> I nearly "Banged my Head" when Democratic presidential hopeful, and apparent fan of cheesy 80's pop metal, Sheik Barack Hussein Obama played the race card at a recent stump speech in Virginia. The "quiet riot" of black rage he claims brewing in black communities is ready to erupt into the streets of all America reminiscent of the L.A. riots. Who doesn't remember the video footage of white officers beating Rodney King, and the officers' subsequent acquittals which set off 3 days of rioting and wanton looting that left the Los Angeles area and its people scarred. The many injustices committed by the officers and rioters (shoppers?) alike made this an embarrassment for all the world to see. Nearly fifteen years later that same level of discontent and frustration is slowly boiling in the black communities and threatens to explode if we don't heed Obama's "quiet riot" warning. Just as Hillary Clinton fancies herself as the "Joan of Arc" for women's rights, Sheik Obama is playing the race card to the same tune. Hopefully Sheik Barack Hussein Obama's pandering and race-baiting will backfire and discredit his campaign. The Republicans have little to say on either issue since they are mostly white males. I am proud to say that white America did not feel the same disdain for blacks when O.J. Simpson was acquitted. Or that Jews didn't feel compelled to take revenge against Muslims when they sawed off Daniel Pearl's head. Maybe every community should be upset with every other community for any reason they feel necessary in order to vent their anger and frustration. Then again, maybe not. Maybe we are mature and civilized. I see hip hop culture as the dominant youth culture. I see more and more mixed race couples everyday. I see homosexuals on wildly popular television programs. I see an open-border immigration policy. I see America much more generous towards the world than the world is towards us. I see the aftermath of the tsunami disaster and the aftermath of 911. America is a good, decent, and tolerant country. We are the envy of the world, not just because of our economic and military might, but because of our charitable and tolerant traditions. Perhaps we have stirred up feelings of resentment and envy in other countries, not only because we are a superpower, but because we are a good, decent and forgiving country, and other societies know this and it reminds them of their own shortcomings stemming from their inability to tolerate and forgive. Jesus died trying to teach the world this. Maybe Sheik Obama needs to listen to a different quiet riot - the Metal Health kind. BANG YOUR HEAD! Before your type of politics makes me bang mine.

Obama The Muslim Grinch

Posted by grappledoctor on Saturday, November 15, 2008 8:33:22 AM
As if Obama wasn't creepy enough, it should be known that Sheik Hussein does not believe in giving gifts on birthdays and on Christmas. Is he just being frugal or is there some more nefarious reason. Any imam or mufti will tell you that there is no Islamic basis for the celebration of birthdays. As for Christmas, why would a good Muslim offend Allah by celebrating the birth of Christ with the exchanging of gifts, which calls to mind the Three Kings bearing gifts to the Newborn Savior? <div><a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/uselection2008/barackobama/2460299/Barack-Obama-does-not-give-birthday-presents-to-children.html">Barack Obama Does Not Give Birthday Presents To Children</a>

TIGER WOODS RACIST!!??!!

Posted by grappledoctor on Saturday, November 15, 2008 8:31:39 AM
Tiger Woods is bi-racial. He has never displayed a preferential lifestyle publicly. Yet, the media greets his "Black" side cordially and solely. His Asian half is rarely acknowledged. Here are two minority populations who want recognition in the public eye. The satisfaction of their populations contributing to society breeds proud feelings and sense of accomplishment. Why does the media ignore the Asian side of this sports star. Obama is another example of an American who is bi-racial. He is the new President Elect in case you didn't here. He has known primarily his White side. He was brought up by his White mom and her parents. His Black side rarely comes public. He is identified as the "first Black" or "first African American" President. He is the first bi-racial President!! The Black background has a more incredible trip to talk about. Coming from a history with slavery to the top position arguably in the world....But maybe the media is shameful for calling such attention only to this race issue. I think race is an issue for the time being. It won't continue to be an issue because of societal feelings changing. The media needs to divulge all relevant information. When they bring someone's minority background to the forefront, they need to recognize everything! It's shameful that reverse discrimination is expressed and until race is no longer discussed, the media needs to address and glorify the diversity of the American Melting Pot.

Prediction # 3. What Is The Test Biden Stated in Obama's First 6 Months

Posted by grappledoctor on Saturday, November 15, 2008 8:24:50 AM
I do not want to write the next 500 predictions on Obama a la Nostradamus. I believe the Israeli government is aware of the ties Obama has with Palestinian and other Islamic peoples. Therefore, the most obvious move for Israel is to perform a first strike. The test is his ability to (Obama's) deal with it. Is Obama the third Antichrist? I don't want to know. I believe Israel will not survive an Obama administration. I am working on an article about why Jews are voting for Obama. Jews inIsrael have long been involved in communist organizations. This is exemplified in the establishment of the kibbutzes or kibbutzeem in Israel. Kibbutzeem are small communist-style living communities. While popular during the hippy age, they are disappearing fast. Move On is extremely popular among the inhabitants. I know other Jews that detest the lifestyle associated with kibbutzeem. The secular Jews who are Jewish by blood alone and live like this embrace Obama because the communist theology is higher on the totem pole than their religion ever was or could be. Other Jews feel liberal openness takes precident. This thinking in a BLACK candidate provides these Jews with a high that cannot be attained on any amount of amphetamines. Conservatives Jews are outraged and disgusted by these STUPID Jews!! Period!!

Prediction #2 Slavery Reparations

Posted by grappledoctor on Saturday, November 15, 2008 8:23:47 AM
I have been reluctant to put down any of my predictions for fear of criticism from bloggers. Yet, discussing predictions is fair game provided its written in correct fashion. Slavery reparations have been discussed for decades. Obama's redistribution plans could pass legislation to provide this to Black Americans in "fairness." This is ushering in the redistribution and any opposing voices would be chastised in the media as prejudice or hate or labeled another epitaph. The super majority created by the Democratic lead Congress and Presidency would ensure this bill's passage. Further, appointing 3-4 new Supreme Court Justices would prevent any legal action filed in the court system. Scary, scary......

PREDICTION 1:::KISS YOUR 401k AND ROTH GOODBYE!!

Posted by grappledoctor on Saturday, November 15, 2008 8:22:49 AM
I only wish I published an article when I predicted this. I was examining my 401k last year and finally decided that the Roth 401k is the best choice for long term savings. I started my Roth in January of this year. I left my money in my 401k because the tax deferred money is not transferable. (I had hoped to transfer the money and pay off the taxes now.) When someone pays the taxes on the money going into a Roth 401k, the interest gained over time is nontaxable. When I retire this will be accessible to me completely without counting as income. Money coming out of my 401k when I retire will be taxable and counted as income but the Democrats are toying with the idea of taxing the 401k in another manner I have yet to learn the details about. Today, FOX news was discussing this when Megan was reporting around 9:30 AM. One, I believe Democrats will consider taxing the Roth 401k higher than the normal tax rate because the interest is nontaxable. Two, the interest could become taxable at a later date yet to be determined. Arguably, this could be considered double taxing. This would not provide Obama immediate tax relief dollars but would solidify his position on "money redistribution." Or it could provide a smaller tax rate than the normal tax. Lots of options for Democrats to consider to muster additional monies for Big Government. I am the director of my employees 401k plan. Each year I discuss new options with my financial institution regarding all future investment options. Then, a representative holds a meeting with my employees and myself to review the findings. Recently, we discussed the Presidential election in my office and how it could affect our plans. Two weeks later Obama is talking about the taxing of savings as predicted in my office meeting. I have one Obama supporter in my office. When I return to work on Tuesday, I wonder how they will respond now......

EXCLUSIVE DIRT ON OBAMA!! THE COLLEGE BRANCH OF HIS SUPPORTERS RECRUIT FATAH MEMBERS!!

Posted by grappledoctor on Saturday, November 15, 2008 8:20:43 AM
The following post is only an opinion and I am not necessarily stating absolute fact. The following post is stating a possible connection. Do your own diligence in order to confirm anything you read here or anywhere on the web. Thank you. I have been hard at work digging up dirt and I finally hit a little paydirt. The connection between Obama and The New Party is widely publicized by the great people at newzeal.blogspot.com. To you gentlemen, great job!! I have been following their incredibly good detective work about how Obama was working with their members. According to the newzeal site, the founding members of this party are former members of 3 different groups: 1) ACORN-you know this group by now 2) the Communist Party of the USA-a very dangerous group. They have ties to communist groups through conferences around the world and are surprisingly well organized. 3) the Democratic Socialist Party- another radical group who work with communist socialist fringe groups together that pose a threat to everyone The Democratic Socialist Party has a college branch which has members on several college campuses across the country. These groups have growing memberships and branch out to other radical groups to jointly perform organized protests. While under the disguise of "better wages", equality for all, immigrants rights, free college education and more, the causes sound credible. Anti war efforts resonate with many people in particular. When someone looks over their agenda, strangely, it sounds more and more aligning itself with the Democratic Party's current Presidential campaign. The latest cause has unmistakable and frightening similarities to the Obama reforms outlined. What is the cause I refer: Renegotiating NAFTA!! "THE RED LETTER" is the Young Democratic Socialists newsletter which is readily available for download on their site at ydsusa.org. At the site you can review the latest which is FALL 2008. Obama could have been reading directly from this newsletter when he details his direction for the country. What scares me is not only this organizations movement, but who they regularly get to address their members. On page four of the news letter it states in the third paragraph that they intend to have a representative of the Fatah Youth(sounds like Hitler Youth ..Hmmmm...) to address their members at a future meeting. Another connection that divulges Obamas true feelings, his real direction, and what ideology he takes to heart. I don't say I know the connection exists, but circumstantial evidence is impossible to rule out. Welcome to the next four years of sheer terror and G-d knows what.....................
