Revealed! Islam's greatest contribution to science ~ By Burt Prelutsky

In his column, Burt was leading up to the point that really bad things can lead to good things. One of his examples was how Jimmy Carter led to Ronald Reagan. I could add another example by saying that Woodrow Wilson led to Calvin Coolidge and Warren Harding, which gave us the roaring 20's after they reduced taxes AND spending. So, basically, Burt was telling us that we will have brighter times ahead, even as soon as right after the midterm election on Nov. 2 ... which of course assumes Obama doesn't bring us martial law and postpone elections before then. Just sayin'...
Finally, even in the gloomiest of times, I like to find something that will lift my spirits and make my soul sing. So it is that between now and Nov. 2, no matter how bleak things may look, I know that I'll get through it by reminding myself that a Portland masseuse got to call Nobel Peace Prize recipient Al Gore "a crazed sex poodle."

Apparently, one of Obama's orders to NASA was to reach out to Muslim nations, celebrating them for their contributions to science, math and engineering. So, in short order, we've gone from reaching for the moon to reaching for Tehran.

I say if we're going that far back in history, we should also take a moment to thank whomever was responsible for coming up with shoes, because in living memory, the only contribution to science made by the Muslim world was turning human beings into delivery systems for bombs.

But it's not just Obama who seems to be taking his directions from Mecca. The town council of Darlaston, England, painted over the windows at its public swimming pool at the insistence of the local Muslims.

One elderly Englishwoman complained that after her recent cataract operation, she had looked forward to seeing the trees outside the facility while swimming her daily laps. Instead, thanks to the paint job, she felt as if her cataracts had returned.

Several questions occur to me, aside from the most obvious one: Why are the English kowtowing to Shariah law?

o begin with, why are Muslim women swimming in public? Even if those outside the pool can no longer ogle them, what about all those randy English blokes who are splashing around inside? Will they be forced to don blindfolds? How about reaching a compromise by removing the paint and making the Muslim women swim in burqas?

Even though Obama seems to regard Muslims as God's chosen people, and by "God" he obviously means himself, I'm here to remind everyone that the most important off-year election in our history is now less than four months away. Even if the Republican on your ballot isn't your conservative ideal, please keep in mind that he or she is part of the antidote to Obamacare, cap-and-trade, increased taxes and additional stimulus bills.

If nothing else impels you to get out and vote on Nov. 2, remind yourself that if the GOP regains control of the House, Nancy Pelosi will not only have to surrender the speaker's gavel, but that jumbo jet she's grown to love. Surely that should be enough to get you off the couch, come Election Day.

Additionally, if the GOP takes back the House, the Republicans will control the nation's purse strings, which will help transform the turkey in the Oval Office into a lame duck.

It's hard to believe, but after the 2008 elections, I worried that the Whigs would make a comeback long before the Republicans. But, then, I never imagined that the Democrats in Congress would enter into political suicide pacts on behalf of Obama's loony, leftist agenda.

  1. I'll say two things. Firstly this is a top-notch, first class example of idiotic, bigoted churnalism - finding a story on the web which enforces your pre-existing views and repeating it without having done the slightest bit of actual research to find out whether it was true or not.

    I refer you to the council's official statement on the swimming pool story and subsequent media rewrite
    http://www.walsall.gov.uk/news/leisure_chief_refutes_darlaston_leisure_centre_claims.htm

    and I refer you to a very good article which highlights the idiocy and untruths within the media reporting

    http://tabloid-watch.blogspot.com/2010/07/non-story-about-local-pool-forces.html

    Both of these articles are exceptionally easy to find with a some basic Googling, something you clearly couldn't be arsed to do.

    Secondly, I have no problem with people writing as much panic stricken fear mongering articles about their own country - but please stay the hell away from mine. I can't tell you how many woefully inaccurate US rightwing columns I have found convinced that the UK is the in the throes of Sharia Law, that Muslims rule the country and that the Queen is fearful for her life.

    Sharia Law is about as likely to occur here as Che Guevara coming back from the dead to instigate a communist takeover of the US. It is rubbish, nonsense and total and utter bullshit.

    Be paranoid about your own country if you wish, but quit spreading lies and bigotry about mine when you clearly haven't got a clue what you're talking about.
