Professors threaten bad grades for saying ‘illegal alien,’ ‘male,’ ‘female’

Peter HassonTexas Campus Correspondent@peterjhassonon Aug 29, 2015 at 9:45 AM ED

Multiple professors at Washington State University have explicitly told students their grades will suffer if they use terms such as “illegal alien,” "male," and “female,” or if they fail to “defer” to non-white students.

According to the syllabus for Selena Lester Breikss’ “Women & Popular Culture” class, students risk a failing grade if they use any common descriptors that Breikss considers “oppressive and hateful language.”

"Students will come to recognize how white privilege functions in everyday social structures and institutions.”    Tweet This

The punishment for repeatedly using the banned words, Breikss warns, includes “but [is] not limited to removal from the class without attendance or participation points, failure of the assignment, and— in extreme cases— failure for the semester.”

Breikss is not the only WSU faculty member implementing such policies.

Much like in Selena Breikss’s classroom, students taking Professor Rebecca Fowler’s “ Introduction to Comparative Ethnic Studies” course will see their grades suffer if they use the term “illegal alien” in their assigned writing.

According to her syllabus, students will lose one point every time they use the words “illegal alien” or “illegals” rather than the preferred terms of “‘undocumented’ migrants/immigrants/persons.” Throughout the course, Fowler says, students will “come to recognize how white privilege functions in everyday social structures and institutions.”

In an email to Campus Reform, Fowler complained that “the term ‘illegal alien’ has permeated dominant discourses that circulate in the news to the extent that our society has come to associate ALL unauthorized border crossings with those immigrants originating from countries south of our border (and not with Asian immigrants, for example, many of whom are also in the country without legal documents and make up a considerable portion of undocumented immigrants living in the country).”

“The socio-legal production of migrant illegality works to systematically dehumanize and exploit these brown bodies for their labor,” Fowler continued.

White students in Professor John Streamas’s “ Introduction to Multicultural Literature” class, are expected to “defer” to non-white students, among other community guidelines, if they want “to do well in this class.”

In the guidelines in his syllabus, Streamas elaborates that he requires students to “reflect” on their grasp of history and social relations “by respecting shy and quiet classmates and by deferring to the experiences of people of color.”

Streamas—who previously generated controversy by calling a student a “ white shitbag” and declared that WSU should stand for “White Supremacist University”—also demands that students “understand and consider the rage of people who are victims of systematic injustice.”

Later in the syllabus, Streamas goes even further and accuses Glenn Beck of being an “insensitive white.”

Several other WSU professors require their students to “acknowledge that racism, classism, sexism, heterosexism, and other institutionalized forms of oppression exist” or that “ we do not live in a post-racial world.”

Ari Cohn, a lawyer with the Foundation for Individual Rights in Education, told Campus Reformhe considers such requirements to be contradictory, even given the sensitive nature of the courses.

"It is notable that one of the syllabus provisions warns: ‘The subject material of this class is sensitive and controversial. Strive to keep an open mind.’ How are students supposed to approach these sensitive and controversial materials at all, let alone to keep an open mind, if they have to fear that a misconstrued statement, or one that unreasonably offends a classmate will lead to a grade reduction or even removal from class?"

Neither Breikss nor Streamas replied to Campus Reform’s request for comment.

NORRIS: OBAMA'S 6 BIGGEST LIES ABOUT IRAN NUKE DEAL

CULTURE WARS

OBAMA'S 6 BIGGEST LIES ABOUT IRAN NUKE DEAL

Exclusive: Chuck Norris exposes major deceptions of president's agreement

President Obama has been campaigning for the Iran nuclear deal like he’s running for a third term. But, unfortunately, because of his naivety and lack of experience on foreign policy, he is completely wrong.

Let me highlight six Obama statements about the Iran nuclear agreement that are complete exaggerations.

1) President Obama said, “I’ve had to make a lot of tough calls as president, but whether or not this deal is good for American security is not one of those calls. It’s not even close.”

“Not even close”?

He just said Friday, “the vast majority of experts on nuclear proliferation have endorsed this deal. The world is more or less united …”

But 200 retired generals and admirals completely disagreed as they sent a letter to Congress last week urging lawmakers to reject the Iran nuclear agreement, which they said “would threaten the national security and vital interests of the United States.”

Are we to assume that most of them are not in any respect “experts on nuclear proliferation”? And are we gullible enough to believe that the commander in chief knows more about military strategy and American security than 200 retired generals and admirals?

And what about other notable experts who disagree? As one editorial piece noted: “Michael Hayden, former CIA director; Dennis Ross, longtime Mideast negotiator; Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff; David Albright, former nuclear weapons inspector and president of the Institute for Science and International Security; and Olli Heinonen, the International Atomic Energy Agency’s former deputy director general for safeguards, have all expressed reservations about the deal.”

Chuck Norris provides real solutions to our county’s problems and a way to reawaken the American dream in his best-seller, “Black Belt Patriotism.”

2) President Obama said, “Because this is such a strong deal, every nation in the world that has commented publicly – with the exception of the Israeli government – has expressed support.”

But the Wall Street Journal reported that “Saudi Arabia, Egypt and the United Arab Emirates – are just as distraught” as Israel about the Iran nuclear deal.

Mishaal al-Gergawi, managing director of the Delma Institute in Abu Dhabi and a prominent Emirati political commentator, explained: “A lot of the Gulf countries feel they are being thrown under the bus. The Gulf thought it was in a monogamous relationship with the West, and now it realizes it’s being cheated on because the U.S. was in an open relationship with it.”

Obama’s “with the exception of the Israeli government” comment is not only a ginormous snub to our greatest ally in the Middle East but an affront to the fact that Israel has been threatened repeatedly with genocide by Iranian leaders.

Jerusalem is 970 miles from Tehran, which is roughly the distance between Washington, D.C., and the islands of the Bahamas – just 50 miles off the Florida coast. If the Bahamas were a hostile state to Washington with a long history of threatening to eradicate the U.S. capital from the planet, do you think anyone in Washington would concede to give the Bahamas nuclear power?

Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is absolutely right when he calls the Iran deal a grave travesty and threat for not only Israel but also a “historic mistake for the world.”

He said, “The desire to sign an agreement was stronger than everything else. … Wide-ranging concessions were made in all of the areas which should have prevented Iran from getting the ability to arm itself with a nuclear weapon.”

3) The president initially said International Atomic Energy Agency, or IAEA, inspectors would be allowed to “access any suspicious location” in Iran. He then backpedaled and limited it, saying, “Inspectors will be allowed daily access to Iran’s key nuclear sites. If there is a reason for inspecting a suspicious, undeclared site anywhere in Iran, inspectors will get that access, even if Iran objects. This access can be with as little as 24 hours’ notice.”

But the truth is, Obama’s “anytime, anywhere” inspections is a bunch of smoke-and-mirror sales pitches to get the American public and legislators to buy the agreement.

First, even the president confessed: “And while the process for resolving a dispute about access can take up to 24 days, once we’ve identified a site that raises suspicion, we will be watching it continuously until inspectors get in.”

However, the Wall Street Journal did an investigation into the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action released by the Obama administration and it “reveals that its terms permit Iran to hold inspectors at bay for months, likely three or more.”

Now, imagine what a drug dealer could do with a warning 90 days before a law-enforcement raid.

The White House noted: “Right now, Iran has nearly 20,000 centrifuges between their Natanz and Fordow facilities. But under this deal, Iran must reduce its centrifuges to 6,104 for the next ten years.”

Ten years?! That’s two-and-a-half presidential terms or cycles. And we expect the No. 1 terrorist-recruiting Islamic nation in the world to comply and not play a shell game with centrifuges over that 10-year period?

The White House again was wrong when it stated, “International inspectors from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) will not only be continuously monitoring every element of Iran’s declared nuclear program, but they will also be verifying that no fissile material is covertly carted off to a secret location to build a bomb. … Basically, from the minute materials that could be used for a weapon comes out of the ground to the minute it is shipped out of the country, the IAEA will have eyes on it and anywhere Iran could try and take it.”

So, we are supposed to believe that, despite not being on the ground full-time, the IAEA, will be omniscient and omnipresent so as to detect any movement of any materials at any time outside the country, even though it will fight to get into the country to inspect anything in less than three months? Can you say, pipe dream?!

And if you think the preceding sounds bogus, consider that the Associated Press just discovered a “secret agreement” between the IAEA and the United Nations and reported this about the discovery: “Iran will be allowed to use its own inspectors to investigate a site it has been accused of using to develop nuclear arms, operating under a secret agreement with the U.N. agency that normally carries out such work.”

And, to add injury to insult, guess who will pay for those Iran inspectors to investigate their own nuclear facilities? You guessed: the American taxpayers have to pay more than $10 million a year.

Reuters reported, after the IAEA said it has a severe funding shortfall and would need extra monies, the U.S. mission in Vienna said in a statement: “The United States is committed to working with all (IAEA) member states to ensure the agency has the resources it needs to verify Iran’s nuclear-related commitments under the (July 14 agreement).”

The State Department echoed similar sentiment back in April: “The United States is committed to working with other IAEA member states to provide the agency the resources it needs to continue carrying out this [Joint Plan of Action]-related work.”

Imagine: Washington agreeing to force American taxpayers to pay for a rogue and terrorist-funding Islamic republic to inspect its own nuclear facilities while ignorantly hoping it doesn’t develop a nuclear bomb behind our backs.

We really have forgotten Sept. 11.

Write your representatives today and demand they reject the Iran nuclear agreement.

(Next week in Part 2, I will give three more examples of Obama’s misguidance and more evidence that the Iran nuclear agreement is bad news for the U.S. and world, how Iran will continue to build a nuclear bomb despite a signed agreement, and, grievous among all the fallout, even if Congress does not sign an agreement, Iran will still be rewarded with at least $50 billion and up to $150 billion additional revenue to continue to fund terrorism against Israel, the West and the U.S. And Obama agrees it is best. Yes, you read that right!)

My comments: Obama, Kerry and the Democrats are TRAITORS to America and to Israel. Obama is a Compulsive LIAR. Who believes anything he says? This "Deal" will prove to be a Debacle.

NUKE DEAL ENABLES IRAN TO OBTAIN ADVANCED FIGHTER JET

Gives Tehran tactical advantage in Israeli attack on facilities

F. Michael Maloof

WASHINGTON – Russia and Iran are rushing to enhance their militaries in the wake of Tehran’s controversial agreement on its nuclear program with the U.S. and the other permanent members of the U.N. Security Council plus Germany, which includes the lifting of international sanctions, according to a report in Joseph Farah’s G2 Bulletin.

Russia wants drone technology while Iran is seeking Russian Sukhoi-30 jet fighters, which experts say are more capable than the F-18s the United States sold to Israel. The exchange would enable Iran to withstand an Israeli aircraft attack on its nuclear facilities.

The development also comes as Russia is about to sell Iran the S-300 air-defense missile system, which is capable of hitting Israel’s aircraft.

The possible technology exchange between Russia and Iran was made known by Manouchehr Manteqi, managing director of the Iranian Industries Organization.

At a news conference that has largely gone unreported, Manteqi said Russia asked for Iranian drone technology. At the same time, Iranian and Russian representatives began talks on the supply of Russian-made Sukhoi-30.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran is known as an advanced country in the field of building drones,” Manteqi said. “We are discussing the issue now.”

Asked by G2 Bulletin to comment on the prospective sales between Russia and Iran, U.S. Air Force Col. Patrick Ryder, spokesman for U.S. Central Command in Tampa, Florida, whose jurisdiction includes Iran, Syria, Iraq and other Middle East countries, said it was the first he had heard of it.

While the timetable for such deliveries hasn’t been announced, Moscow and Tehran are expected to accelerate efforts to negotiate the sale of sophisticated military technologies now that international sanctions on Iran are to be lifted as a result of the U.N. Security Council approval of the nuclear agreement.

Go to Joseph Farah’s G2 Bulletin for the rest of this, and other, stories.

Technology from captured U.S. drone

Initial discussions were held on the sidelines of the MAKS 2015 air show in the town of Zhukovsky near Moscow. Present at the air show were Russian President Vladimir Putin and Iranian Vice President for Science and Technology Sorena Sattari.

Iran has been in the forefront in developing drone technology, including the Ababil, Fotros, Hazem, Karrar long range attack drone, Mohajer, Sarir, Shahed 129, Yasir and Zohal.

Last September, Iran unveiled its first homemade fighter drone that carries air-to-air missiles.

In 2013, Iran announced it had reverse-engineered a stealth American drone captured in 2011.

Iran tracked the spy drone after it took off from a U.S. base in Afghanistan and then brought it down inside Iran.

Iranian sources say the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps had electronically tricked the highly classified U.S. RQ-170 drone to fly into Iran. The drone was under the command of the Central Intelligence Agency.

Intelligence and defense sources have told G2 Bulletin that the capture and reverse engineering of the RQ-170 may have compromised the entire U.S. stealth drone program.

9-Y-O ISIS SEX SLAVES REVEAL BRUTAL RITUALISTIC RAPES

9-Y-O ISIS Sex Slaves Reveal Brutal Ritualistic Rapes, Barbaric Treatment of Girls Sold at Sex Slave Market (Interview)

BY HERMOINE MACURA , CP CONTRIBUTOR

August 26, 2015|5:48 pm

ERBIL, Iraq — Dozens of Yazidi sex slave survivors, including 9-year-old girls, were rescued this week by smugglers from their Islamic State captors following months of brutal rape and torture by their "owners" and other Jihadi soldiers who purchased them at an IS slave market.

"Their fighters pray to Allah before and after they systematically rape Yazidi women and children, including some as young as 9-years-old," said Hadi Pir, vice president of Yazda, a U.S.-based global Yazidi organization to The Christian Post.

While some Christians had the option to pay jaziya (Islamic tax paid by non-Muslims) to purchase their freedom, most other minority groups such as the Yazidis, who number about 600,000 in Iraq, were specifically targeted and separated for sex slavery.

Basing their slavery system on Quranic verses and Hadiths that govern groups they consider heretics, Islamic State gave the Yazidis only two options: convert to Islam or die. Many victims chose the later.

Yazidi Noor, a 22-year-old sex slave survivor whose name has been changed for her own protection, told CP about how she was kidnapped and enslaved during the Iraqi Sinjar province's Kocho massacre in 2014.

She escape after using an old mobile phone to contact her brother who coordinated with smugglers to get her out of Islamic State via Turkey and then into Kurdistan.

"IS soldiers gathered us and separated the virgin girls and children from the other women. ... They chose the beautiful girls and transported them to the Qasr Al Mihrab village where they distributed the girls to IS fighters. … My sister and I were given to a fighter named Muhammad Salah, who took us to Mosul where he raped and tortured us," Noor explains.

Both sisters tried several attempts to commit suicide, after they were sold on to other IS fighters in Syria over a period of six months. Ending up in the city of Raqqa, Noor was then forced to convert to Islam and practice Islamic rituals, while systematically being raped and tortured daily.

"Sometimes I deflected the rapes by telling them I had my period ... one IS soldier named Abu Khadija injected me with drugs to sedate me so he could rape me, as I kept trying to kill myself. When I woke up I realized I had been brutally raped by him," adds Noor.

Islamic State has infamously promoted its sex slave doctrine on social media, with a senior United Nations official confirming the groups "Sex slave price list" for captured women and children.

U.N. official Zainab Bangura, was given a copy of an Islamic State price list during a visit to Iraq, stating that "the girls get peddled like barrels of petrol," and "boys and girls aged 1 to 9 are equal to about $165," according to a report in Bloomberg.

One 12-year-old Yazidi sex slave survivor in Iraq sparked global outrage after she explained her painful rape ordeal to a New York Times reporter earlier this month, and shared how her attacker told her that what he was doing was considered to be acceptable to Allah.

"I kept telling him it hurts — please stop. He told me that according to Islam he is allowed to rape an unbeliever. He said that by raping me, he is drawing closer to God," The New York Times reported.

Another Yazidi girl aged 15, who also escaped, told the Times: "Every time that he came to rape me, he would pray. He said that raping me is his prayer to God. I said to him, 'What you're doing to me is wrong, and it will not bring you closer to God.' And he said, 'No, it's allowed. It's halal.'"

According to an article published in the Islamic State's propaganda magazine, Dabiq, Yazidis are considered heretics and their women and children can be divided "according to the Shariah amongst the fighters of the Islamic State."

The glossy propaganda platform published in several languages, including English, blends several Quranic and Hadith passages to explain why the slavery of heretics is permissible according to Islamic law. It also lists a set of rules on how to govern slaves, such as not separating mothers from their children.

"Before Shaytan [Satan] reveals his doubts to the weak-minded and weak hearted, one should remember that enslaving the families of the kuffar [infidels] and taking their women as concubines is a firmly established aspect of the Shari'ah that if one were to deny or mock, he would be denying or mocking the verses of the Qur'an and the narration of the Prophet...and thereby apostatizing from Islam," as reported by the CP reported last October.

Pir told this reporter that many of the enslaved Yazidi women were able to escape, thanks to international business people and donations helping to purchase their freedom.

"The only people I know who are helping to free Yazidi women are mediators who have access to the areas controlled by Islamic State. ... U.S. donations have also helped us 'buy back' many Yazidi women and children as well as smuggle out many critical cases as well," he said.

As of August, around 1,446 Yazidi women and 2,054 men and children are still being held inside Islamic State territory. "U.S. intervention saved tens of thousands of Yazidis who were trapped on Mount Sinjar in August 2014. ... The U.S. airstrikes also saved many Yazidis and helped them fight Islamic State … but the U.S. has no policies or plans to save Yazidis and guarantee their future in Iraq," adds Pir.

Yazda officials in Iraq say that the UNHCR did contact them twice, however, the only support they have received so far has been medication from the World Health Organization. "Most of the women are traumatized and need psychological therapy more than anything else," said Dohuk's Executive Director of Yazda, Jameel Chomer to CP.

Established in 2014, Islamic State has seized large areas of territory in Syria and Iraq and has declared it's own caliphate. The state follows a strict interpretation of Islam and Shariah law, which is not accepted or supported by the majority of Muslims globally.

Islamic State is notorious for its brutality, mass killings, abductions, sex slavery and the persecution of Christians including a priest whom they chopped into pieces, as documented by CP here.

The group has demanded that all Muslims throughout the world swear allegiance to its leader — Ibrahim Awad Ibrahim al-Badri al-Samarrai, known to his followers as Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi — and move to it's new territory.

IS sex slavery was introduced in 2014 as an incentive to recruit more soldiers, by the group's leader, who personally held the late American Aid Worker Kayla Mueller as his sex slave, according to the International Business Times.

According to the BBC, Islamic State has publicly executed thousands of hostages, including American journalist James Foley, in a bid to confront the U.S.-led coalition against them and spark an End Times war they believe, is between Muslims and their enemies described in Islamic texts.

WILL AMERICA SURVIVE THE OBAMA PRESIDENCY AND THE IRAN BOMB?

Will We Survive the Obama Presidency and the Iranian Bomb?

BY NOAH BECK , CP OP-ED CONTRIBUTOR

August 27, 2015|7:44 am

When, in 2012, I authored a cautionary tale about the dangers of a nuclear Iran, I never imagined a U.S. president who would, just a few years later, actively try to strengthen Iran's geopolitical and financial position while providing international legitimacy to the Iranian nuclear program. But sometimes truth is scarier than fiction.

In my thriller, 35 Israeli submariners must decide what to do after Iran gets "the bomb." In an unexpected twist on fiction, a small group of undecided members of Congress may similarly have to determine the course of history. They represent the last chance for a democracy to reject the nuclear appeasement of the Ayatollahs. There are reportedly 26 Senate Democrats currently in favor of President Obama's Iran deal, so eight more are needed to sustain Obama's veto of a Congressional resolution disapproving of the Iran agreement.

But as ineptly negotiated as the Iran agreement is, defeating it would probably be worse, given the political realities. The best possible outcome, at this point, would be a Congressional resolution that rejects the Iran deal but then gets vetoed by Obama. 

Why? Because if Congress overrides Obama's veto and defeats the deal, Iran will likely use that as an excuse to abandon whatever limited and temporary constraints it accepted under the agreement. Iran can then — at a time of its choosing — race towards nukes while Obama is still in office, secure in the knowledge that Obama wouldn't dare to stop Iran militarily.

If Obama cowered from enforcing his no-chemical-weapons "red line" against the far weaker Syrian regime in 2013, there is no chance that Obama would militarily confront Iran over its nuclear program (and he essentially admitted as much in an Israeli television interview). Lest anyone doubt Obama's enforcement laxity, he has already accepted Iran's brazen violations of existing sanctions.

Incidentally, Obama claimed that "diplomacy" could handle the Syrian chemical weapons threat more effectively than force could, but now ISIS is gassing the Kurds with impunity, which undermines any notion that diplomacy will prevent nuclear abuses.

In the Middle East, strength is far more respected than diplomacy, and it's clear that Obama projects weakness to foes and friends alike. Indeed, senior Iranian military leaders have openly laughed at the emptiness of Obama's military threats.

Not only will Obama fail to take any military action against Iranian nukes, he will probably thwart any Israeli operations to that effect. The Obama administration reportedly floated the idea of attacking Israeli jets en route to destroy Iran's nuclear program. Incredibly, Obama's Iran deal arguably obligates the U.S. to help Iran protect its nuclear program from an Israeli attack.

The Islamic Republic couldn't have a greater ally in the White House, and therefore would probably exploit a Congressional defeat of the Iran deal in order to race towards a nuclear weapon with impunity.

American Jews would also be harmed by the defeat of Obama's Iran deal: Obama and his supporters would fuel anti-Semitism by alleging excessive Jewish power even more than they already have, and Jews and Israel would be blamed if Iran abandoned the agreement and dashed towards nukes — particularly if any military conflagration ensued.

As dangerous and risky as it is for Israel to undertake a unilateral military strike on Iran's hardened and dispersed nuclear sites, such an operation is effectively impossible as long as Obama is in office. During Operation Protective Edge last summer, Obama reminded Israel that he could endanger the tiny state in the middle of war by refusing to resupply its military, and his FAA isolated Israel by imposing a ban on flights to Israel after just thirteen days of conflict (it took about three years of war in Syria for the FAA to take the same action there).

On the diplomatic front, Obama has already threatened to withhold diplomatic support for Israel at the UN on the Palestinian issue, so on the Iranian nuclear issue — his legacy foreign policy "achievement" — he would be far more dangerous to Israel at the UN.

The Obama administration has also leaked highly sensitive information to Israel's detriment, from Israel's attacks on Syrian weapons transfers to Hezbollah, to details about Israel's nuclear program.

In addition to the already abundant evidence of Obama's anti-Israel animus, Michael Oren, Israel's former Ambassador to the U.S., detailed Obama's hostility towards Israel in his recently published memoir, Ally.

Given the Obama administration's willingness to harm Israel, the Jewish state simply cannot risk a major military operation as long as Obama is in office. Thus, the pro-Iranian nuclear deal is now, thanks to Obama, the only way to stop Iranian nukes until Obama leaves office.

56% of Americans think Congress should reject the deal with Iran, and 60% disapprove of Obama's handling of the U.S. relationship with Iran, according to the latest CNN/ORC poll. Congressional rejection of the deal will officially reflect these sentiments and undermine the deal's legitimacy (despite Obama's subsequent veto) — particularly because Obama purposely rammed the accord through the U.N. Security Council in order to make it a fait accompli that deprives Congress of any meaningful constitutional role in the process.

But if Congress officially rejects Obama's disastrous deal and it survives only by Obama's veto, the next president can more legitimately rescind it and — with the help of traditional Mideast allies — stop Iranian nuclear ambitions and hegemony.

Unfortunately, Obama's policies have made the job of his successor much harder. The next president will face a far stronger and less isolated Iran, economically empowered by a world rushing to do business with the Ayatollahs. Iran's $150 billion post-sanctions windfall will increase Iranian financial support for terrorist groups (as Obama officials now concede) and boost Iran's military capabilities (Russia just agreed to sell Iran its advanced, S-300 long-range, surface-to-air missile systems, complicating future missions to destroy Iranian nukes).

Until the 45th president assumes office on January 20, 2017, those concerned about Obama's reckless and feckless foreign policy and his increasingly imperial presidency need to keep him on the defensive by focusing public attention on Obama administration controversies, many of which involve abuses of power that should interest the mainstream media. The busier Obama is defending his prior excesses, the less he can commit new ones during the rest of his tenure.

Noah Beck is the author of "The Last Israelis," a submarine thriller about the Iranian nuclear threat and the doomsday scenario that it could produce.

My comments: First, Obama is Not out of office until another takes that office and we have a year and one-half untill that is possible. That is a long time, in which man extraordinary events are possibility. Obama has proven that he is capable of ANYTHING, and as an Alinskyite he will use ANY MEANS to accomplish whatever he has in mind.
