John Batchelor show is now just a global warming infomercial

.
On John Batchelor's radio show Sun., 4/1/12, Lou Ann Hammond, an expert in the automotive and energy field and owner of CarList.com, said approximately the following:

"If more people believed in global warming more people would buy Chevy Volts. If Obama is re-elected he could convince more people to believe in global warming."

Ed. note: As I recall, Batchelor agreed emphatically with Ms. Hammond's statements. Ms. Hammond appeared to have a segment entirely to herself on Monday or Tuesday night, had one or more guests and was chatting about electric cars and 'energy.' She said gasoline has helped America but it can't continue because of 'carbon.' I had to turn the radio off at that point.

Then on Sunday night, 4/8/12, Batchelor in a deep, serious voice introduces a segment about Iceland and says people there are very worried "about Global Warming and extreme (or severe) climate change." His guest had written something recent on the topic of Iceland. So I waited for either Batchelor or his guest to bring up the terrible global warming problem in Iceland but neither did.

Global warming is a multi-trillion dollar industry. Top UN 'climate' bosses freely admit it has nothing to do with climate. It is transfer of wealth (from the US middle class to unelected slobs at the UN who can do whatever they want with our money and can't be prosecuted for any crime, even murder) and societal change. That's what Batchelor supports. Fine, he did what many before him have done, sold out to billionaires, to Soros, to an instant army. There's little money on the right so that was an easy choice. I wonder if he'll explain his radical conversion to global warming promoter.

McCain and Lindsey Graham are Muslim Brotherhood's favorite Republicans. McCain, G. Bush 2nd term, and Obama alike v Brotherhood

.
"(McCain) steers the GOP toward Obama’s goal of cozier relations with Egypt’s Islamists"

2/22/12, "McCain & Graham [Heart] the Muslim Brotherhood," Andrew McCarthy, Nat. Review

"Senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham have taken time off from helping install an Islamist government in Libya (mainly the Muslim Brotherhood, with some help from al Qaeda) and calling for the arming of the Syrian “rebels” (mainly the Muslim Brotherhood, with some help from al Qaeda) to heap praise on the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt....

(McCain and Graham) sit on the board of...the International Republican Institute, a progressive endowment that is a clearinghouse for channeling millions of American taxpayer dollars for “civil society development” across the globe. The IRI has served as a McCain fiefdom since he was given control of it 20 years ago. It is one of the organizations whose members have been accused of violating Mubarak-era Egyptian laws that bar NGOs from receiving foreign funding — laws that the Muslim Brotherhood opposed because they made it harder for the Brothers to rabble-rouse under the guise of “promoting democracy.”

The Brotherhood, of course, actually seeks an Islamic state ruled by repressive sharia law. From the organization’s founding in the 1920s to this very day, its motto has remained, “Allah is our objective, the Prophet is our leader, the Koran is our law, Jihad is our way, and dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope. Allahu Akbar!” Only a few days ago, its Supreme Guide in Egypt reaffirmed that the Brotherhood’s goal is to establish an Islamic caliphate. Its chief sharia jurist, Sheikh Yusuf Qaradawi, who explains that secular democracy is anathema for an Islamic society, has prescribed a gradual transition to sharia. Just three years ago, the Brotherhood’s leadership explicitly called on Egyptian youth to prepare for jihad — “raising young people on the basis of the principles of jihad so as to create mujahideen who love to die as much as others love to live, and who can perform their duty toward their God, themselves, and their homeland.”

The Brothers, furthermore, have unmitigated contempt for the West and seek the eradication of Israel. Qaradawi promises that Islam will conquer America and Europe and has issued fatwas approving suicide bombings in Israel and against American troops in Iraq. The terrorist organization, Hamas, is the Brotherhood’s Palestinian branch. The Brotherhood’s agents in America have written that their mission here is a “grand jihad” to eliminate and destroy Western civilization from within by sabotage.

But why should any of that preclude warm words from the ummah’s favorite Republicans? As the Wall Street Journal reports....

Which reminds us: Why is our country, which is $16 trillion in debt and sinking deeper by the second, giving a dime to Islamist countries that despise us? We can’t afford it. Plus, the more we spend on the region, the more anti-American the region becomes. ...

Meantime, as he (McCain) steers the GOP toward Obama’s goal of cozier relations with Egypt’s Islamists, we are again reminded of how lucky we are to have elected to the senate a real statesman like John McCain — as opposed to one of those rightwing whackjobs like J.D. Hayworth, who clearly lack the foreign-policy depth and nuance to appreciate how moderate the Brotherhood truly is.

Don’t say you weren’t warned. Back in 2008, I argued that McCain’s reputation as a tower of national-security strength is a myth, that “in reality, a McCain presidency would promise an entirely conventional, center-left, multilateralism” — i.e., “the same agonizing over European and Islamic perceptions of America; the same doctrinaire commitment to the alchemy of democracy promotion; and the same fondness for heaping more unaccountable bureaucratic sprawl atop the already counterproductive agencies and multinational institutions that frustrate the United States at every turn” that are staples of Democratic party dogma, and that were on display in the second Bush term.

We did not get the McCain presidency, but we have gotten the McCain foreign policy where truckling to Islamists is concerned. When it comes to the Muslim Brotherhood, it turns out that mavericks and community organizers are on the same page."

Denmark quite safe for violent mobs who hurl rocks and bottles. Not safe for small, peaceful groups who merely wish some free speech

.
Denmark is just a staging area for violent mobs and organized crime. AP and News 24 demonize a small group of 200-300 people who peacefully protested jihad in Europe, labeling them "far right," "anti-Islam," and invoking comparison to a mentally ill mass murder. 2500 violent counter protesters overwhelmed the smaller group with masked persons hurling rocks and bottles even injuring police, said to be a combination of left-wing groups favoring "diversity". As the small group left by bus, pro-jihad leftists hurled rocks and bottles at the bus which required police escort to get out of the stinking town in a country so corrupt it can't even provide safe drinking water.

4/1/12, "80 arrested in Denmark," news24, AP

"More than 80 people were arrested on Saturday as protesters hurling rocks and bottles tried to interrupt an anti-Islamic demonstration by far-right groups from across northern Europe, Danish police said.

There were numerous brief scuffles throughout the day as police tried to separate some 2500 counter-demonstrators from a few hundred people attending the anti-Islamic rally in Aarhus, Denmark's second-largest city. One police officer received minor injuries after being hit by a bottle, police spokesperson Georg Husted said.

Police said about 200 to 300 people from Denmark, Britain, Germany, Sweden and Poland took part in what was billed as a "European counter-jihad meeting" to protest what they called the Islamisation of Europe. They were met by a 10-times larger counter-demonstration by left-wing groups under the banner "Aarhus for Diversity."

The anti-Islamic rally started with a moment of silence for the seven people killed by an al-Qaeda-inspired gunman in France....

Both demonstrations were peaceful until a group of black-clad, mask-wearing youth from the counter-demonstration tried to break through police lines, but officers in riot gear held them back.

After the rally finished, protesters hurled rocks and bottles at a bus carrying the far-right sympathisers as police vans escorted it out of the city centre."

----------------------------------

Ed. note: AP definitions:

"Protester"-a person who throws rocks and bottles at a bus peacefully trying to leave town and who is a member of a 'diversity' group

"Far right sympathizer"-Someone peacefully sitting in a bus trying to leave town without being maimed or injured.

"Far left sympathizer"-not mentioned

AP spends no time analyzing the violent group, doesn't compare it to a mass murderer even throwing rocks and bottles could murder someone.

Scientists issued the first "State of the Planet" declaration at a major gathering of experts on global environmental and social issues in advance of the major UN Summit Rio+20 in June.

The declaration opens: "Research now demonstrates that the continued functioning of the Earth system as it has supported the well-being of human civilization in recent centuries is at risk." It states that consensus is growing that we have driven the planet into a new epoch, the Anthropocene, where many planetary-scale processes are dominated by human activities. It concludes society must not delay taking urgent and large-scale action.

"This is a declaration to our globally interconnected society," said Dr Lidia Brito, director of science policy, natural sciences, UNESCO, and conference co-chair."...

Nurse! Global warming elites contradict selves, say urgent for all people to live in cities, then say kids are sick from being in cities too much

"UK children are losing contact with nature at a "dramatic" rate, and their health and education are suffering, a National Trust report says....

Evidence suggests the problem is worse in the UK than other parts of Europe, and may help explain poor UK rankings in childhood satisfaction surveys.

The trust is launching a consultation on tackling "nature deficit disorder"....

The phrase nature deficit disorder was coined in 2005 by author Richard Louv, who argued that the human cost of "alienation from nature" was measured in "diminished use of the senses, attention difficulties and higher rates of physical and emotional illnesses"....

--------------------------------

Ed. note: State-owned BBC keeps churning them out. Who in their right mind sits around thinking that the solution to world problems is to remove automobiles? Who would bury all the dead bodies? They presume to shove us in cities one day and the next they say kids are getting sick from being indoors in cities too much. Playing on pavement isn't quite the dirt and tree climbing experience but it gives the climate monarchy an opening. Demanding that all kids play in the street is tied to demanding that cars be removed from many streets and that is in fact suggested in this article. The article also suggests cars in the street lead to increased sexual molestation-since people stay home too much:

BBC: "Most sexual molestation occurs in the home, for example, not in parks....

"I think the first step for any child is playing outdoors in the street; and in the 40 years since I grew up, traffic has increased hugely, and that's the main reason why none of us let our kids out on their own," Mr Moss told BBC News.

"The only solution would be to have pedestrian priority on every residential street in Britain; when you are driving along the street, if there are children playing, they have priority.""

"Oregon University professor Kari Norgaard suggests global warming skeptics be "treated.""

Examiner: "Norgaard did not specify what that treatment might entail. Electro-shock therapy? Hypnosis? Perhaps she would opt for something similar to "Room 101" in George Orwell's classic, 1984.

Andrea Ryan wrote at the Gateway Pundit:

Kari Norgaard doesn’t understand the basics of the scientific principle. Even accepted science is constantly critiqued…it’s lesson number 1. Real scientists rigorously try to disprove their theory and welcome outside criticism as a way of bolstering the truth behind the science. But, Kari Norgaard wouldn’t know that, because her only science degree is a Bachelors. What she is practicing is social science, which is just Liberalism dressed up as science.

The UK Daily Mail reports that Norgaard is currently in London attending the "Planet under Pressure" conference."...

UPDATE: 4/2/12, Wegmans is applauded for removing Sharia-compliant checkout line, via Atlas Shrugs
------------------------------------
The reporter includes quotes from people who are fine with Islamic Sharia in a Wegmans Rochester store, and say Christians have the same hang-ups as Muslims because they know Christians who 'have a problem' serving alcohol. After accepting this false analogy wasn't the reporter curious to know if his subjects felt Christians valued female genital mutilation and honor killings just as Muslims do? How about the Buffalo, NY Muslim tv network owner who beheaded his wife?

3/30/12, "Sign at Wegmans draws attention," WHEC.com, Rochester, Ray Levato

"It’s a first for Wegmans in this area. They’ve put up a sign asking customers buying pork or alcohol not to use a particular checkout line when a Muslim teenager is on duty as the cashier.

The sign went up a week ago at their Lyell Avenue store.

Wegmans says they haven’t gotten any in store complaints and Wegmans was very upfront about the cashier. They just wouldn’t allow us in the store to talk with her or customers.

Spokeswoman Jo Natale says the cashier is a teenaged girl who wears a head covering. She told her supervisor she was uncomfortable handling those items because of religious reasons. So the store manager who had experience with this type of situation outside of Rochester decided to put up a small sign whenever the girl was at the checkout counter.

It says, “If your order contains pork or alcohol product, we respectfully ask that you choose another lane.”

Wegmans also says the girl has been coached what to say if customers ask why. People News10NBC spoke with outside the Lyell Avenue Wegmans store said they were okay with it and one even knows Christians who don’t like the idea of serving alcohol.

Bernard Thomas said, “I feel like if they’re going to hire her and she’s got to have the job, why shouldn’t we respect her. Just go to another cashier.”

Darlene Hucko said, “I would respect her beliefs and go to the next line if I had alcohol.
Levato said, “You think that’s okay.”
Hucko said, “I think it is okay.”

Alex Gritsvuta said, “I'm from a Christian background and waiters...the Christian girls that I know have a problem serving alcohol to people in a bar.

• Not in the bar necessarily, maybe in the restaurant.”

The girl attends school and works part-time. Wegmans characterizes her as happy, someone who likes what she does and a good worker.

Because of her age, Wegmans says state law limits the types of jobs teenagers can do inside a supermarket."

Honor killings usually involve the cooperation of several family members.

11/30/2009, "'Honor killings' in USA raise concerns," USA Today, Oren Dorell

"Muslim immigrant men have been accused of six "honor killings" in the United States in the past two years, prompting concerns that the Muslim community and police need to do more to stop such crimes....

Honor killings are generally defined as murders of women by relatives who claim the victim brought shame to the family. Thousands of such killings have occurred in Muslim countries such as Egypt, Jordan, Pakistan and Palestinian territories, according to the World Health Organization.

Some clerics and even lawmakers in these countries have said families have the right to commit honor killings as a way of maintaining values, according to an analysis by Yotam Feldner in the journal Middle East Quarterly.

In the USA, police allege the latest "honor killing" was that of Noor Almaleki, 20, who died Nov. 2 after she and her boyfriend's mother were run over in a Peoria, Ariz., parking lot. Prosecutors charged Almaleki's father, Faleh Almaleki, with murder, saying the Iraqi immigrant was upset that his daughter rejected a husband she married in Iraq and moved in with an American.

"By his own admission, this was an intentional act, and the reason was that his daughter had brought shame on him and his family," says Maricopa County prosecutor Stephanie Low, according to The Arizona Republic....

"You're always going to get problems with chauvinism and suppressing vulnerable populations and gender discrimination," says Salam Al-Marayati, executive director of the Muslim Public Affairs Council....

Phyllis Chesler, who wrote about honor killings in her book Woman's Inhumanity to Woman, says police need to focus on the crimes' co-conspirators if they wish to reverse the trend. Before 2008, there were six honor killings in the USA in the previous 18 years, according to her research.

"It's usually the father, brother or first male cousin who is charged with the actual shooting or stabbing, (but not) the mother who lures the girl home," Chesler says. "The religion has failed to address this as a problem and failed to seriously work to abolish it as un-Islamic.""...

""She couldn’t date anyone outside of their race or religion.”... "Neighbors said the family was Muslim." Local police say 'motive not important.' (The DMNews story describes an 'honor killing' without using the term. ed.)

Star-Telegram article mentions at the very end that the family was Muslim and that parents were from Iran: "Baum said the family was Muslim but celebrated Christmas as a cultural holiday. The parents were originally from Iran."

via Atlas Shrugs, 12/27/11, "The mainstream media has reported this as the "Santa killer." No mention that it was an Islamic honor killing until this Dallas Morning News story."

One of the now dead daughters feared for her life and asked police to place her in a foster home but they wouldn't. The article won't even say the word Islam. 4 people are dead, the police ignored the girl's plea because everyone is afraid of Islam.

Ed. note: You're a mental case to take a job you can't do then ask for special rules for yourself. Christianity doesn't prohibit 'being around' alcohol or food anyway, nor does it suggest adherents look suspiciously upon persons who consume alcohol in bars or restaurants, nor that anyone take a job where alcohol is served or take any kind of job they can't perform wholeheartedly. I believe the Mormon religion eschews alcohol but that isn't even the point. I'm Christian, served plenty of drinks during summer waitress jobs, and have never heard the subject of serving any food or drink connected to Christianity. If someone is 'uncomfortable' around alcohol or pork, fine, don't be around it, do a different job. photo from Wegman's checkout via Atlas Shrugs
