Halal Meat Products....... Make up your own mind...
I checked with snopes and they explain it in detail. Think for yourself. Hilal Meat has been sold in the USA since 1996.
Also, it is in demand because of the large Muslim Population in the Midwestern USA. I for one do not want to contribute
to Muslim commerce. Rather I would prefer to eat meat produced in the good old USA. Otherwise, I’d rather be a vegetarian.
THIS IS COMING SO LOOK OUT FOR THIS INTRUSION IN U.S. and CANADIAN MARKETS... "Halal" meat... are you aware of this? Take a look and forward to your friends and family. Do Not buy this meat.
"Costco stocking their meat counters with "Halal" meat."
I shopped for groceries at my local Wal-Mart. As usual, I bought a bag of frozen chicken breasts, but this time I checked to make sure the meat was not labeled "Halal." Here's why: Halal is the Islamic term that basically means the meat is lawful to eat for a devout Muslim.
What makes it lawful or acceptable is that the meat has been processed in a very specific way. Unlike kosher food, where the physical processing of the meat is the focus, for Islam it is the spiritual component that makes the meat lawful.For lawful (halal) meat in Islam, the animal must be killed while the butcher faces Mecca , and either the butcher cries "Allah Akbar" or a tape plays the words over a loud speaker.
Ann Barnhardt is a cattle commodities broker, has more about "Halal."NEVER buy meat that is marked as "Halal."
I am in the cattle business, and believe me when I tell you that Halal kill plants are CONSTANTLY being cited and shut down by the USDA for horrific infractions. Most of these plants are in Michigan and upstate New York.One of the things that halal kill plants are notorious for is putting already-dead animals in the human consumption line. They will go pick up a dead cow off of a farm or ranch and instead of putting it in their rendering tank where the resulting "tankage" is worth pennies on the dollar as pet food or industrial products, they will shackle the dead animal on the normal kill line and process it as human food which is the highest-dollar product.Since Islam teaches dishonesty (taqiyyah) and no regard for one's neighbor, this kind of sickening behavior is standard.Halal plants are also notorious for general citations for filth and uncleanliness. I have toured normal cattle slaughter plants, and guys, you could eat off of the floor. Everything is white and men walk around with water hoses and steam guns constantly keeping everything in a state of spotlessness.Halal plants are filthy. A lot of Halal meat is also labeled as "organic."Again, don't be fooled into thinking that "halal" means "better." It isn't.
I would never, ever knowingly eat halal meat purely from a food safety perspective.THIS IS COMING AND LOOK OUT FOR THIS INTRUSION IN U.S. and CANADIAN MARKETS... "Halal" meat... are you aware of this?
Take a look and forward to your friends and family. Do Not buy this meat!

Gun Control: You can't trust John McCain or his BFF Lindsey Graham
Posted: 08 Apr 2013 11:00 PM PDT
First, let’s get something out of the way. John McCain should be thanked for his service to his country. But, he was no hero. The claim that he waited his turn to be released from captivity is negated by claims that he was a North Vietnamese collaborator and that he, single-handedly stopped the United States from officially inquiring into MIAs – by shutting down public access to the records of returning veterans who may have had knowledge of Americans who were left behind.
Second, historically, John McCain was an aisle hopper who was associated with some of the most spectacularly flawed legislation man has ever created. McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Reform whose unintended consequences allowed even more money shenanigans than ever before. McCain-Kennedy Comprehensive Immigration Reform which proposed to legalize that which was illegal and declare the financial, social, medical, and cultural problem solved. Then there was McCain-Lieberman Climate Control which purported to fix a non-existent problem and bankrupt the United States. In each instance, pushing the democrat socialist agenda forward without benefit to his own party. I shouldn’t really say no benefits, as there was money aplenty for all of the corrupt politicians used to dipping their wicks into the public’s pocket.
And now we find John McCain claiming, “I Don’t Understand Filibustering Gun Control …
John McCain: “I Don’t Understand Filibustering Gun Control”
Senator John McCain (R-AZ) once again demonstrated why he should be on his way out when he is up for re-election. On CBS’ Face the Nation on Sunday, McCain expressed bewilderment over the proposed filibuster by Senators Paul, Cruz and Lee over Harry Reid’s gun control legislation. “I don’t understand it,” McCain said. “The purpose of the United States Senate is to debate and to vote and to let the people know where we stand.” “I don’t understand why United States senators want to block debate when the leaders said we could have amendments,” McCain said.
Perhaps John McCain does not understand what is at stake …
It should only take a few moments to review the core concept of the Second Amendment.
The purpose of the Second Amendment is to insure that man’s right of self-defense as well as to combat government tyranny.
This is the Amendment that guarantees that the Constitution will remain the supreme law of the land when it comes to restricting the federal government from granting itself unrestricted powers and imposing laws that would restrict American freedoms.
The Constitution was not designed to empower the federal government, but to restrict its actions – leaving all of the rights not specifically enumerated to the states or to “We the People.”
Perhaps we should look at the context it which the Second Amendment was written by considering the words of Thomas Jefferson …
“The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not.”
“When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.”
We are dangerously close to the first condition where President Obama and his fellow travelers in Congress are unconstitutionally engaging in wealth redistribution. Taking money from Americans and giving it to foreign nations without any tangible benefits to ordinary Americans. Paying off nations to accept a presidential photo-op is not a prudent use of our tax dollars. Neither is arming terrorists who hate the United States is some perverted war over petro-dollars. Especially when the multi-national oil companies and their bought-and-paid-for politicians have deliberately denied us energy independence and made America more vulnerable. Here in California, one can find no better example of how this malevolent condition is succeeding under democrat control.
As for the second statement, we are finding more and more Americans becoming afraid of their government. Of the outrageous abuse of power by government bureaucracies – sometimes pursuing issues that make absolutely no sense.
Bottom line …
John McCain and his BFF Lindsey Graham are tools. Tools of a corrupt political system. Tools of a corrupt socialist ideology. And, just because McCain was unfortunate enough to be shot down over Viet Nam and survive a prison camp, we should not accord him honors as a hero – as an ordinary soldier, certainly – but not as a hero or one who is enlightened or morally superior to anyone else.
I am afraid of John McCain. He does not appear to be a man of the people and acting for the people. He appears to be a wealthy, privileged members of an old club that is trying to centrally plan the world.

Immigration Bill: ANOTHER 1500-PAGE BILL NOBODY WILL READ BEFORE THEY SIGN -- NO AMENDMENTS ALLOWED?
Posted: 08 Apr 2013 06:41 PM PDT
The word is coming down, the proposed immigration bill will be at least 1,500 pages long, cede unprecedented power to the Secretary of DHS – as if she did not already control much of the Administration – and be offered with no opportunity for amendments.
This omnibus legislation in reminiscent of Obamacare and Dodd-Frank – massive bills that nobody read or understood before they voted in favor of incomplete, incomprehensible legislation that greatly extended the powers of the executive branch agencies, while minimizing congressional powers.
Bottom line …
BOHICA: Bend Over Here It Comes Again!
Another fast one pulled by the corrupt socialist democrats and their equally corrupt republicans who are more interested in gaining the Hispanic vote than they are caring for our nation’s safety and security. It is believed, by me and others, that this bill will be so fouled-up that the republicans may withhold their vote and then be demonized by the democrats in the 2014 congressional race.
And, the stupid republicans have no plan or public relations campaign to tell the truth to the American public --- only grabbing money for the upcoming elections based on individuals.

SCARY COMMUNIST TALK FROM MSNBC HOST MELISSA HARRIS-PERRY -- YOUR CHILDREN BELONG TO THE COMMUNITY
Posted: 08 Apr 2013 01:41 PM PDT
We have never invested as much in public education as we should have, because we always had sort of a private notion of children. Your kid is yours and totally your responsibility. We haven’t had a very collective notion of these are our children. So part of it is we have to break through our kind of private idea that kids belong to their parents. Or kids belong to their families. And recognize that kids belong to whole communities. Once it is everybody’s responsibility, and not just the household’s, then we start making better investments.
In her own words …
Bottom line …
The idea that individuals are unexceptional population units and must be directed by an enlightened ruling elite for the benefit of the collective is pure communism. As is, the idea that children belong to the state, to be educated by the state, and for the state to dictate their future.
We have always known MSNBC to be a radical left propaganda machine, but it appears that they are starting to broadcast the very rhetoric used by communists and totalitarian regimes.
Unfortunately, with much of our unthinking, uncritical and “go along to get along” public, this is one of those red flags (pardon the pun) that serves as notice that the progressives, liberals, democrats, socialists and communists – or whatever they brand themselves to avoid instant negative connotations and associations – is becoming a clear and present danger to America and her citizens.
The real trouble lies with the endless repetition of this message until it ingrained in our “collective” subconscious, so that it becomes an accepted part of conscious culture – and no longer an outlandish and unacceptable idea.
The truth about public education is that it is not only controlled by socialist unions who fete seniority over merit, the status quo over innovation, the concept of an inviolate lifetime right to a job and benefits, onerous work rules which prevent a parent-volunteer from participating in any act performed by a “classified” school employee, and no accountability for malfeasance or wrongdoing -- but the proof that these incompetent ideologues are educating our children is not present. More and more children are being graduated, if the graduate at all, as functional illiterates – tied to calculators and “cut and paste” computers to be able to perform any task.
There is no constitutional right for the federal government to interfere in education. And if it were not for the coercion of providing taxpayer money to states and local municipalities, the federal government would have zero power over what is essentially a local affair. Even today, when the elements of basic education are well-known, there is no core curricula, no basic achievement standards and textbooks containing “old” information are outrageously priced. It’s not about the children, it’s about the adults – money and power.
And, as we have recently seen, even when standarded tests exists, those in charge of the children CHEAT!
The 35 Atlanta public school employees charged in a testing scandal have been released from jail and are awaiting their first appearance in court. They are accused of running a conspiracy in which they changed students’ answers on standardized tests in order to be paid performance bonuses. By Wednesday evening, a day after they were ordered to surrender at the Fulton County Jail, all the defendants had posted bond and been released. Defense lawyers said they are asking the district attorney, Paul L. Howard Jr., to hold trials before multiple juries. They said there is no courtroom in the county large enough to accommodate 35 defendants, lawyers and family members.
Your children are yours and your responsibility. To cede additional power to the local, state or federal government is to abrogate your rights as parents and to accept that the tenets of communism are acceptable.

Barack Obama, John Kerry and the Liberals being played by Iran and North Korea? Futility of a proportional response?
Posted: 08 Apr 2013 12:29 PM PDT
Is this an Iranian ploy to buy more time for their nuclear adventures?
What is the probability that North Korea is playing the United States in order to allow Iran to complete its nuclear weapons works and that any nuclear test in North Korea is actually a test of the Iranian weapon itself, after which Iran will announce that they are now a nuclear state? Because of the number of Iranians in Southern California an the continuing travel between the two countries, it seems that the United States should have better intelligence sources in Iran than in North Korea. And, because of the number of workers crossing the South Korean/North Korean border, one might suspect that there are intelligence moles on both sides of the 38th parallel. So what is the real story?
And, what’s up with a “proportional response?”
Proportional responses were designed by weak powers who are trying to demonstrate to their own citizens that they are “tough” even though they are afraid of provoking a much larger conflict. It appears to me that proportional responses against a country that considers its citizens as unexceptional and bothersome chattel, like North Korea, or cares not a whit for its citizens like the Muslim countries where it is a blessed event to die in the cause of Allah, is just another sign of weakness. You may have a designated military target – and you destroy it completely and thoroughly. If the other side attacks a civilian population center, you respond by destroying two of their cities, completely and thoroughly. The ancient Roman approach to warfare that stops aggression quickly. The trick is not to appear tough, it is to be tough.
From the New York Times …
U.S. Designs a Korea Response Proportional to the Provocation
As North Korea hints at new military provocations in the coming days, the United States and South Korea have drawn up plans to respond more forcefully than in the recent past, but in a limited way intended to prevent an escalation to broader war.
Amid the rising tensions, there were still efforts on many fronts on Sunday to limit the possibility of military conflict. In an indirect but clear criticism of China’s longtime ally, North Korea, Xi Jinping, China’s new president, said in a speech on Sunday that no country in Asia “should be allowed to throw a region and even the whole world into chaos for selfish gain.”
A senior adviser to President Obama, Dan Pfeiffer, appearing on the ABC program “This Week,” played down the situation as “a pattern of behavior we’ve seen from the North Koreans many times.”
Still, the escalating tensions were underscored Sunday when the commander of American forces on the Korean Peninsula, Gen. James D. Thurman, abruptly canceled a trip to Washington for Congressional testimony and consultations. So did South Korea’s top commander.

Bottom line …
Let us hope that our nation is not being unduly crippled by the democrats, as it was during Carter whose ineptness brought about Islamo-fascism and jihad, and Clinton who bombed an aspirin factory as a show of force. With foreign policy experts like Joe Biden and John Kerry, perhaps we will mimic France and surrender to North Korean demands in a staggering show of appeasement. Of course, I am not certain that Barack Obama, with his pro-Muslim/anti-Israel sentiments does not mind a nuclear-armed Iran as a counter to Israel’s weapons base. Even though co-conspirator jihadist Saudi Arabia is terrified of a nuclear Iran.
